Asediul Acrei a fost cel mai important eveniment al cruciadei a treia, începând pe data de 28 august 1189 și terminându-se pe 12 iulie 1191, și pentru prima dată în istoria cruciadelor regele a fost nevoit să se îngrijească personal de apărarea Țării Sfinte. A fost de asemenea și evenimentul cu cele mai multe pierderi din toată perioada cruciadelor, pentru clasa conducătoare creștină din est.

Context
După ce Saladin i-a învins decisiv pe cruciați în bătălia de la Hattin pe 4 iulie 1187, el a reușit să cucerească o mare parte din Regatul Ierusalimului aproape fără să întâlnească opoziție, printre care și orașele Acra și (pe 2 octombrie) Ierusalimul însuși. Ca urmare, cruciații controlau numai Tir, Tripoli și Antiohia, pe care Saladin a atacat-o de asemenea în 1188, deși fără succes. Vești ale pierderii Ierusalimului și Palestinei au fost șocante pentru Europa și în curând au apărut cereri pentru organizarea unei noi cruciade, susținute de către papa Grigore al VIII-lea în octombrie 1187 și de către succesorul său papa Clement al III-lea.

Tir
În Tir, Conrad de Montferrat se fortificase și reușise să reziste cu succes asaltului lui Saladin până spre sfârșitul anului 1187. Sultanul apoi și-a îndreptat atenția către alte treburi, însă pe urmă a încercat să negocieze predarea orașului printr-un tratat, deoarece pe la mijlocul anului 1188 primele întăriri din Europa sosiseră la Tir pe mare. În termenii tratatului, Saladin trebuia, printre alte lucruri, să îl elibereze pe regele Guy, pe care îl capturase la Hattin. Acest lucru ar fi sporit conflictul dintre Guy, care era considerat vinovat pentru catastrofa Hattin, și Conrad, care apărase cu succes Tirul în fața invaziei ulterioare. Guy a fost eliberat și înfățișat în fața orașului, însă Conrad nu l-a lăsat să intre, susținând că el îl administra până când regii vor sosi pe mare pentru a stabili succesiunea. Aceasta era în concordanță cu testamentul lui Balduin al IV-lea: el era ruda cea mai apropiată pe linie paternă a lui Balduin al V-lea. Guy a plecat înainte de a apărea din nou în fața orașului cu soția sa, regina Sibila, care deținea titlul legal al regatului, însă a fost din nou respins de Conrad, ridicându-și astfel tabăra în afara porților orașului.

Aproape de sfârșitul verii anului 1188, William al II-lea de Sicilia a trimis o flotă cu 200 de cavaleri; pe 6 aprilie 1189, Ubaldo Lanfranchi, arhiepiscop de Pisa, a sosit cu 52 de nave. Guy a reușit să atragă ambele contingente de partea sa. În august, Conrad a refuzat din nou să-i permită intrarea, așa că a strâns tabăra și a pornit spre sud pentru a ataca Acra; el și trupele sale au călătorit de-a lungul coastei, în timp ce pisanii și sicilienii au navigat pe mare. Guy avea nevoie urgent de o bază fermă de unde putea organiza un contraatac împotriva lui Saladin, și din cauză că nu putea folosi orașul Tir, și-a îndreptat planurile către Acra, la 50 de km spre sud. Astfel, Guy și Conrad erau aliați împotriva lui Saladin.

Acra
Acra (ebraică עַכּוֹ, Akko; arabă عكّا, Akkā), denumit în epoca elenistică Antiochia tis Ptolemaidos (greacă Αντιόχεια της Πτολεμαΐδος) sau pe scurt: Ptolemaïs, iar în epoca cruciată Saint-Jean d'Acre, este un oraș din vestul Galileei în Districtul de Nord din Israel. Este situat pe coasta Mării Mediterane, la nord-est de golful Akko, 23 km la nord de Haifa. În 2013, populația localității era de 47.397 de locuitori, majoritatea evrei, iar o minoritate arabi.

Akko este unul din porturile cele mai vechi din lume, ale cărui începuturi se pierd în negurii epocii bronzului timpuriu. Vreme de generații a fost un punct cheie pentru controlarea Palestinei sau a Țării Sfinte, deoarece poziția sa pe o zonă largă de coastă permitea un acces prielnic spre restul Galileei și interiorul țării.

A cunoscut perioade de înflorire și de decădere și a trecut prin mâinile multor cuceritori. A cunoscut apogeul când a servit drept capitala Regatului cruciat al Ierusalimului, în secolul al XIII-lea, și mai târziu ca reședință a lui Ahmed pașa Al Djazzar, la finele veacului al XVIII-lea. În secolul al XIX-lea, însemnătatea sa a scăzut în favoarea orașului Haifa, care i-a luat locul ca port principal în nordul țării. Dezvoltarea sa a fost de atunci cu mult încetinită.

În anul 2001, partea veche a orașului Akko a fost declarată de UNESCO ca loc din patrimoniul mondial. În anul 2008, și locurile sfinte ale religiei bahaiste, aflate la Akko și în Galileea de vest, au fost recunoscute, de asemenea, de către UNESCO ca loc protejat din patrimoniul universal. În oraș și în împrejurimile lui se află Al Bahja, locul cel mai sfânt al religiei bahaiste.

League spokesman Mike Bass said Monday, Feb. 11, 2019, that the NBA will look at the matter. (AP Photo/File)
NEW YORK (AP) — The NBA says Los Angeles Lakers president Magic Johnson did not break any league tampering rules when he spoke about Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons earlier this week.
The NBA's relatively quick-moving investigation was initiated after it was revealed that Simmons wanted to meet with Johnson to talk about the art of being an elite point guard. Johnson complimented Simmons publicly on Sunday.
"I love his game. I love his vision," Johnson said.
But since that was in response to a media inquiry, the NBA says Johnson was permitted to make such comments.
"We have concluded that Magic Johnson's statements regarding Ben Simmons do not constitute a tampering violation," the league said. "The Philadelphia 76ers initiated the contact with the Los Angeles Lakers by requesting a meeting between Johnson and Simmons. Both organizations ultimately concluded that such a meeting did not make sense at this time but in that context, Johnson's response to a media inquiry regarding Simmons does not run afoul of league rules."
The Lakers have been fined for tampering violations twice since 2017, those violations costing the team a combined ,000.

What are the differences between internal organs between sub-saharan Africans and Northern Europeans? [closed]
Closed. This question is off-topic. It is not currently accepting answers.
Want to improve this question? Update the question so it's on-topic for Medical Sciences Stack Exchange.
Closed 1 year ago.
(I'll aim this question mostly at surgeons who may have done a lot of surgeries in different countries or countries with a lots of diverse ethnic groups.)
Lets take as examples a typical Norwegian and a typical Nigerian.
In terms of human anatonomy the outer differences are more obvious e.g. (on average)
White skin vs dark skin
Pointy nose vs broad nose
Thin lips vs thicker lips
Straight hair vs tight curly hair
Different skull shape
Height differences
Different colour eyes or eyelids.
In fact there is almost a difference in every external organ.
There are also some invisible differences such as propensity to sickle cell disease.
But what I hear less about is the differences (in general) between internal organs between populations. Some people even suggest that differences are only "skin deep" between human populations. Which I think goes against evolutionary theory. As why would natural selection stop at skin level? Also, there is a lot of research into skeletal differences but that's easier to do since we can look at a skeletons.
Therefor it seems fairly logical to assume that there would be fairly apparent differences in internal organs between these populations. (I hesitate to use the word 'races') i.e. as apparant as different hair types, or different nose shapes.
I don't mean that one population will have 3 kidneys for example, but I would expect that there would be an obvious shape or size difference between most, if not all internal organs, just as there is a shape, colour or size difference between most external organs.
Is there some research done on this, e.g. a catalogue of differences in internal organs morphology between different populations? Or is it taboo to even ask such questions perhaps?
One might say, "how would anyone know? Or care?" But, for example, a heart surgeon might find they need different sized instruments dealing with different people. Or surgeons from different continents might compare notes on anatomy. And anatomy textbooks based on just one population might not be representative. Surgeries working on one "race" might not work on others. e.g. if the heart wall was thinner or the colon was longer.
Another use would be if there was a victim and one wanted to guess the ethnicity of someone and the only evidence was an internal organ of some kind. Could it be done (without looking at the DNA?)

What prior research have you done to support this question?
– Bryan Krause
"I would expect that there would be an obvious shape or size difference between most, if not all internal organs, just as there is a shape, colour or size difference between most external organs." -- Really? Why would you expect that? What have you found in your research to suggest that's true?
– Carey Gregory ♦
@zooby By no means am I picking an argument. What I'm pointing out is your question lacks prior research and makes unsupported claims.
Part of the problem is that if you ask "does X difference exist" it's easy to answer if it exists. If it doesn't then there is just no research because no one cares. I am personally confident that the individual difference in organ size vastly outweighs any racial difference but.. I also dont expect any citations to exist to say that. So when you give no research it's easy to ask unanswerable questions with no effort.
Anecdotal evidence from a surgeon would be a terrible way to answer this question.
why would natural selection stop at skin level?
The division of humanity into "races" was not natural. Yes, some (e.g. darker skin in sunnier locations) was natural, but for the most part it was the result of human intelligence and racism.
Genetic drift caused slight differences between isolated communities, but when those communities came into contact the interbreeding that would normally occur with non-intelligent species tended not to happen.
People tend to favour those that look more like them and to fear those that look different, so it's natural to choose familiar looking mates. Beautiful people had more children than did ugly people. Over time, each group began to look more and more like its own ideal version.
This deliberate, artificial, selection was based strictly on external features, so it was those features that eventually defined the races.
There was no such process affecting internal features, so the "evolution" you are asking about simply didn't happen.
I hadn't realized that this process wasn't already well known.
The idea certainly wasn't original to me. (I remember seeing, just within the last year, a quotation from a scientist (ethnologist?) at the beginning of a TV program that expressed the same idea, but of course I don't remember what it was.)
I've searched for references for this process and can't find anything at the moment (I'll keep looking), other than something I wrote myself a few years ago:
Us versus Them
There is something in human nature that makes us want to identify with and to belong to groups of other human beings. We can see this grouping into "us" and "them" everywhere.
Children separate themselves into girls and boys; high-school students separate into cliques of jocks, nerds, and preppies; adults separate into Masons, or Rotarians, or Kiwanis; sports lovers separate into Mets fans or Yankees fans; and so on.
Two individuals can have extremely different backgrounds and interests, but if they meet as strangers and each is wearing a Yankees cap, they experience something that links them. There is no objective reason for this; unless they have bet money on the outcome of a game it really makes no difference to those individuals, much less the rest of the world, whether their team wins. But to them it is important; if the team wins they somehow feel that they personally have won, that they are personally better than they would have been had the team lost.
This phenomenon happens at all levels. Many people are proud of their city, their state, or their country for no reason other than that they are part of those groups. If you think about it, it really doesn't make sense, but it is a fundamental part of what most humans are. (If Texas really were objectively better than Oklahoma, everyone would abandon the one state and move to the other. Texans might say that the reason this doesn't happen is because all Oklahomans are too stupid to see the truth, thereby further illustrating the "us" versus "them" phenomenon.)
From a survival perspective, this attitude has had great benefits throughout history. If someone identifies more with you than with the person beside you, they are going to kill that person before they kill you. If you are in trouble, someone that identifies with you is much more likely to help you, even if only because they might hope the same of you someday. Having other people view the world in terms of "us" and "them" increases your chance of survival.
The earliest, most basic grouping was by family. We tend to look very much like our parents, our siblings, and our children, and we feel safest in their company. If we identify ourselves by that criterion, we will also have a slight tendency to identify with other people that look like us. We will naturally be more likely to work with, to be friends with, and to marry people that look like our family.
Isolated groups will develop an ideal image of what they look like, and over time members of that group will come to look more and more like that ideal. Children whose appearance is outside the norm will be picked on, and as adults they will be outcasts. These funny-looking or ugly people will be far less likely to survive or to find mates, and over generations the genes that make them look different will be eliminated from the community.
In a world of geographically isolated settlements, after dozens of generations, the inbreeding will greatly reduce each group's genetic variability. Each group will of course have its own unique selection of genes, different from that of all other groups. Where there is contact between groups, the "us" versus "them" nature will exaggerate those differences even more. It will be easy to see which members of the "us" community have "them" characteristics, and any such children will become outcasts.
Over the centuries, this "us" versus "them" inspired inbreeding is what has created what we now call race. Racism isn't the natural consequence of the existence of race. The causal relationship is actually the exact opposite. Race is the inevitable outcome of human nature's "us" versus "them" mentality.

CAPSULE: THE MERMAID (2016)
November 8, 2016 Pete Trbovich 2 Comments
DIRECTED BY: Stephen Chow
FEATURING: Chao Deng, Show Lo, Yuqi Zhang
PLOT: A wealthy Chinese business tycoon buys prime coastal real estate, but his Capitalist plans will destroy life for a tribe of mermaids (and one mer-octopus) living there. The merfolk dispatch an assassin to disrupt the tycoon's plans, but they end up in a sappy romance instead.
WHY IT WON'T MAKE THE LIST: A stylish and entertaining comedy, yes. It's good, clean, silly fun, even fit fare to bring the kiddies. But it doesn't touch the farthest rim of the outside category of the fringe weird movies considered here. A helpful note to future List aspirants: "fantasy" does not automatically equal "weird."
COMMENTS: From the opening credits over shots of factories belching smoke and marine life drenched in crude oil, we expect right away we're in for a heavy environmental message. To our relief, we end up in a bargain-basement nature museum and a farcical comedy. Tycoon Liu Xuan acquires Green Gulf, a prime island real estate, to develop. That business venture doesn't sit well with the local fauna, especially not the kind with both arms and gills.
Shan is a mermaid dispatched by her tribe to stop Xuan's plans by acting as a siren to lures Xuan to his assassination at the hands of a crack team of merfolk activists. But things run awry when she grows emotionally attached to Xuan, despite her leader describing humans as "pure evil" during an expository history lesson. Xuan gets mushy for Shan, too, so the fate of the merfolk hang with these star-crossed flounders. It's just as well; as an assassin, Shan's about as threatening as Mr. Bean. Cue Very Important Environmental/Cultural Sensitivity Message you've seen a hundred times in everything from Fern Gully to Pocahontas.
Even though it doesn't qualify as "weird," there are some memorable action scenes, top-notch special effects, grand scale slapstick sight gags, and a CGI crew who couldn't resist inserting a Finding Nemo nod at the end there. Keep an eye out for an amok jetpack, slingshot air corps training, an outrageously over-the-top sushi chef routine, and an elder merfolk shaman with a water-bending magic ability. Stephen Chow is one director who knows how to deliver everything you were expecting, plus ten percent. The last thirty minutes even get dramatic enough to almost take itself seriously, just enough to sell the ending. Rest assured, the environmental message is not dropped with an anvil, but a quick smack from a frying pan.
"Hilarity ensues" is about all there is left to say for the rest of the film. The comedy isn't even surreal enough to make it into Monty Python territory; this is more like the Chinese Mel Brooks, complete with many classic gags from the farce school of comedy. That being said, it's a well-done, lavishly produced, fun movie, sure to be a crowd-pleaser—it's the highest-grossing Chinese film of all time, after all. But "crowd-pleaser" isn't what a list of weird movies would typically include.
"… the weirdest, hokiest and, at its best, funniest big-budget comedy since Stephen Chow's last film, Journey to the West."–Daniel Eagan, Film Journal International (contemporaneous)

This movie isn't weird. Just funny and clever.
Alex W. says:
The slapstick assassination sequence reminded me of the physical humor of Naked Gun.
However, I must take issue with the ending. You comment that it's "dramatic enough to almost take itself seriously, " but that isn't the fourth of it. The movie ends (SPOILER) with a violent mercenary action against the primary characters that is largely successful. It's a killing spree! Even the heroine is almost blasted to a pulp. It was a truly bizarre choice.


Grenada is a tiny island and part of the Antilles. This unique location can be spotted in an uncountable variety of travel brochures and magazines: bathing under cascade, diving, surfing and sailing as well as mountain-biking and walking-tours in the heart of Grenada.
to protect their little Caribbean island. Ecotourism is part of the government's strategy to achieve the natural beauty of the island world. A significant part of Grenada is a nature conversation area. The variety of fauna and flora is one-of-a-kind and framed by more than 40 white sandy beaches. Further, the harmony of the Caribbean country is not disturbed by big hotels- on the contrary the hotels in Grenada must not be higher than the palm-trees.
from mass-tourism. Moreover, there are various accommodations for every taste and every budget. Another stunning part of Grenada is its culture- for example, the little colourful rows of houses in the capitol St. George located in the picturesque slopes of the hills and the typical spice plantations and Rum distilleries.

Have you many times thought about setting up your own version control and issue management server but have not yet found enough time? Getting these services up and running on a server is probably not your core competency. And if you are a consultant, setting up the server environment is not something you can easily charge your customer for. Yet not having these tools available will probably effect your product time-to-market, system quality and the overall project costs.
This is a dilemma for start-up companies, individual consultants, small companies, or anyone who does not have an IT-department supporting the project with serverconfigurations.
In this blog-post we are going to teach you how to get your subversion and trac server stack setup and running in less than one hour. The stack is running inside a virtualised environment simplifying backups and enabling it to run on many different host operating systems.
All components are open-source and free to use for anyone. This setup is going to run in a virtualized environment using Virtualbox and Bitnami stacks. As you probably are aware of, Atollic TrueSTUDIO integrates both version control clients and issue management clients. So let's make all these tools play together.
In order to get up and running as easy as possible with Subversion and Trac on a server computer, we are going to use Bitnami stacks running inside a virtual machine on your server computer. Another option is to install all services and depending libraries from scratch in a native or virtualized machine. But the sole purpose of this blog post is to provide a quick path to a version control and issue management server environment, and therefore Bitnami is a good solution.
"Bitnami is a library of popular server applications and development environments that can be installed with one click, either in your laptop, in a virtual machine or hosted in the cloud. We take care of compiling and configuring the applications and all of their dependencies (third-party libraries, language runtimes, databases) so they work out-of-the-box. The resulting packaged software (a 'stack') is then made available as native installers, virtual machines and cloud images. These Bitnami application packages provide a consistent, secure and optimized end-user experience when deploying any app, on any platform.", see Bitnami webpage for more info.
Bitnami provides their application stacks both as native Windows/Linux/OS X installers and as virtualized machines which can be imported by VirtualBox or VMWare. The choice is of course yours, but from I prefer using virtualized environments for maintenance reasons amongst many others.
Memory. Minimum 512 MB of RAM, 1 GB is recommended for Trac/Subversion stack.
Hard disk space. While VirtualBox itself is very lean (a typical installation will only need about 30 MB of hard disk space), the virtual machines will require fairly huge files on disk to represent their own hard disk storage. Make sure that you have at least 4 GB of available disc space.
Bitnami Trac virtual machine "Trac 1.0.9-0 (64-bit)"
Since this topic is a guide on how you can version control and maintain your data a disclaimer may actually be a good idea.
All content provided in this blog is for informational purposes only. The owner of this blog makes no representations as to the accuracy or completeness of any information on this site or found by following any link on this site.

First you need to double-check in the server computer BIOS that "Virtualization technologies" or "VT-x" is enabled. This setting is probably found in system configuration or device configuration category of BIOS. If this setting is enabled, neither your 32 nor your 64-bit host computer will be able to run the 64-bit guest machine.
Run the installer for VirtualBox, to install the virtualization environment. The installation should be straight-forward.
Choose the amount of RAM that is dedicated to the virtual machine, 1GB of RAM is recommended, but 512 MB is probably sufficient in most cases.
By completing these steps you hopefully have a virtual machine running Trac and Subversion. What you currently don't have is a way to access these servers from outside the virtual machine itself, e.g. from TrueSTUDIO on your dev-laptop.
Providing access for Atollic TrueSTUDIO to the guest machine can be accomplished in several different ways. In this guide I am assuming that your dev-laptop and your server machine are on the same LAN, and DHCP is used to obtain IP-addresses. What about security? Solving potential security issues is up to you, but as a recommendation make sure that no unintended ports are forwarded to the guest machine IP-address.
The easiest way of obtaining a DHCP IP-address for the guest machine and thereby make it available to any computer in your LAN is to configure the network connection to bridge the network adapter used to connect to your LAN. Bridging an adapter basically means that the guest machine is allowed to use one of your network adapters (ethernet card or wi-fi, or both if multiple adapters are configured) to access your LAN. The adapter will be shared between the host and the guest, but the host and guest will have different IP-addresses.
In VirtualBox make sure that your guest machine (Bitnami_trac_svn or whatever name you gave it) is not running. If it is running all menus will be greyed out as seen in the screenshot above.
Name: Choose the network interface from the host PC that you wish to bridge for the virtual guest machine.
The MAC-address may be worth noting if you wish to make sure that your DHCP-server/internet router statically assigns a certain IP-address to this MAC-address. In this way we can make sure that the server has a static IP-address even though DHCP manages the addresses.
It is now time to start your guest machine for the first time. Select the guest machine (in my example Bitnami_trac_svn) and click Machine > Show.
The guest machine now boots. The username and password is shown in the console (u: bitnami, p: bitnami). On the first login attempt you will be prompted to change the password for the bitnami user. Do so!
In my case the IP-address to this guest machine is 192.168.108.185.
It is a good idea to try to see if you can ping the guest machine from your development laptop.
Subversion should now be available using the svn-protocol. We will verify this from inside of TrueSTUDIO using the integrated subversion client during the next step when we setup TrueSTUDIO.
Congratulations your server is now up and running, let us connect to it with the integrated clients in Atollic TrueSTUDIO!
Let us now take a look at how TrueSTUDIO is connected to the Trac and subversion repositories.
In the Show View dialog, type SVN in the filter.
Select and open the SVN Repositories view.
In the upper right-corner fof this view click on the button New repository location.
In the Show View dialog, type Task repositories in the filter.
Select and open the Task Repositories view.
The validate settings button will tell you wheter a repository exists on the specified URL and whether username/password authentication works. Click Finish and your repository is connected to TrueSTUDIO. The connection details for Subversion and Trac is stored as workspace metadata. Therefore the connection will need to be re-established in any new workspace.
Unfortunately XML-RPC protocol is not part of this stack, therefore the Additional Settings > Acces type, must be Automatic or Web. Personally I think XML-RPC supports dramatically improves the IDE integration and would recommend installing this protocol into the guest machine. Perhaps there will be an article later covering this procedure.
Working with tickets in general is done from the Task List view. Open this view, by default it is hidden behind the Outline view in TrueSTUDIO C/C++ perspective.
Provided that you are connected to your trac repository you should be able to create a Query which generates a list of tickets matching a certain set of user-defined criterions.
In the Task List view click on the downwards pointin arrow just to the right of the New Task button.
Select the name of your recently added Trac repository in my case above Bitnami trac.
Add additionalt queries to filter down tickets you wish to view in different categories.
To add a ticket, write a bug repo, a feature request, or a general to-do item, the New Task... button is used.
In the Task List view click on the New Task button.
Click Finish (with XML-RPC support this works a lot better) to open an integrated web browser to access the New Ticket page.
You may optionally choose to attach files.
Fill in details and click Create ticket.
The ticket is now submitted into the trac repo. You can right-click on the recently created query/list (Open Blocker Bug Reports. Version 1.0) and click Synchronize in order to refresh the information from the repo into the client. But by default the synchronization should happen automatically on a periodic basis.
That is basically it, double-click on any ticket to open/modify it.
Interested in learning more about Subversion and Trac? Our youtube-channel contains Subversion video tutorials (see links earlier in this post).
If requested I may write an article on installing XML-RPC into the server for more convenient ticket/issue management. You can request that by leaving a comment below. Some of the key benefits are that you are able to access tickets even when you are offline since the clients stores the latest information locally. Additionally it becomes easy to take and attach screenshots to your bug reports and to use context awareness.
We also have a white paper that provides an excellent introduction to version control with details on how to use Subversion inside the TrueSTUDIO IDE.

A legendary shooter series is coming back for a new generation, and it's getting the F2P treatment. "Tribes Ascend", developed by Hi-Rez Studios, is a multiplayer only FPS series that's all about jetpacks, insane speed and blowing stuff up. While having a very sizeable fanbase, Tribes has always been considered to be a niche title. So many changes were made in order to appeal to a broader audience. An early access closed beta was opened to a select few, and I managed to get in on the action.
Straight from the log-in screen, different character classes were shown, each with alternative load-outs between light, medium and heavy movement types. This makes for a total of 12 playable classes. Unfortunately, only two medium movement types were available from the start: Soldier and Ranger. Ranger seemed like a good class for me, equipped with an assault rifle and grenade launcher. Since I tend to spray and pray when playing unfamiliar shooters, I selected Ranger and headed straight for the play button.
Play options during the early closed beta were a bit scarce, as only two maps were available and only two game modes: CTF and Rabbit. There was also no option to start your own rooms. I wasn't sure what Rabbit mode was like, so selected CTF and was dumped into a game in progress.
The two warring teams were the Blood Eagles (Red) and the Diamond Swords (Blue), both classic clans from the Tribes series. The Blood Eagles had buff and bulky looking body armor while the Diamond Swords had a more slivery sleek design to theirs. I didn't have a preference since I have never played a Tribes game before, so I went with the Blood Eagles.
The first map I played on was Katabatic, a huge snowfield with tons of mountains to drop in from. It was also the perfect place to get some wicked ski battles going. My team and I were primarily fixated on rushing for the flag without setting up any defenses for our base. Luckily for my team, the enemy flag carrier kept trying to rush past us and always got shot down, allowing for an easy pick up.
After getting used to playing as Ranger, I switch to the Soldier class after a respawn. Soldiers were similar to Rangers, but instead of a generic assault rifles, they used Spinfusors, another classic Tribes weapon that fires spinning electric blades of exploding death. They're single shot weapons and were best used in mid-close range. They weren't my cup of tea, but it was a fan favorite.
…that was until I walked backwards into an endless pit of nothingness.
Next map up was Crossfire, a map filled with smaller grassy hills that separate two huge drop ships. This time, I went with the Diamond Sword team. Both sides rushed out to the middle of the field and engaged in a chaotic fire fight. With my new found skiing skills, I snaked around enemies while picking off weaker ones for some assist points. I attempted to grab the enemy flag, but enemy turrets and some damn good snipers kept picking me off.
Going straight for the flag wasn't such a great idea, so instead I decided to do some fancy covert action and go for the generator instead, thus disabling enemy turrets that were getting in me and my team's way.
After a few more rounds, I decided to give this Rabbit mode a try. This game mode is a fan favorite and a true test of your skiing skills. The object is to grab the flag in the middle of the field and hold onto it as long as possible while other players try to kill you. First player to 30 points wins.
It was like a good 'ol fashion cat and mouse chase, except the cats and mice were strapped with jet boosters and speeding around at 130+ kilometers an hour. I learned a thing or two about proper skiing routes from this mode as I tangoed with more Tribes vets. Some vets were nearly impossible to catch up with.
Even though I do not have any previous experience with the Tribes series, I had a whole lot of fun with this one. As long as they tweak the skiing a bit and go easy on the monetization process they're planning, it could easily be one of the slickest F2P shooters out there.
Tribes Ascend is having a closed beta test that began on November 4th, 2011, with an Open Beta shortly after. For more information, stayed tuned to OnRPG for an upcoming video first impressions!

Upstream Theater is a professional production company dedicated to bringing a world of theater to St. Louis. We believe that art engages as much as it entertains, and that by feeding the senses we feed the soul. Our goal is to move you, and to move you to think.
WORLD CLASS THEATER FOR A WORLD CLASS CITY
Since 2005, Upstream has introduced St. Louis audiences to new plays from places as far-flung as Argentina and Australia, as well as innovative stagings of classics. Two-thirds of our shows have been U.S. premieres, and all are chosen for local impact. We collaborate with theater artistsfrom around the globe, and our shows continue to spark discourse in and beyond our local community.This international focus is unique in the region and rare in the country. Our innovative productions of classical and contemporary works have attracted consistent local recognition as well as national acclaim, including two grants from the National Endowment for the Arts. We are also the only local company (and first in Missouri) to be awarded a National Theatre Grant from the American Theatre Wing (founder of the Tonys).
St. Louis is a city of great diversity, with a wealth of artistic talent. From the beginning we have put that diversity on stage by deliberately and consistently hiring across lines of race and ethnicity. We have also been committed to professionalism since our first production, and have always operated under a full contract with Actors' Equity, which assures our actors safe working conditions, regulated wages and benefits.
"You can always expect an evening of mind-bending theater from Upstream; you just can't always predict how they'll achieve it."
— Richard T. Green

I.D.E.A. Inclusion. Diversity. Equity. Access.
Upstream Theater remains determined to put diversity on stage, with the plays we produce and the people we hire to produce them. By sharing stories from around the world we celebrate difference while underscoring our common humanity. From the beginning our art has been empowered by deliberate inclusion across race, gender, age, ethnicity, identity, ability, and experience. Just as we make sure no physical barrier impedes accessibility in our venues, we strive to remove unseen barriers that impede progress towards greater equity both within our organization and within our community—and we will continue to look to improve our own approach.
PHILIP BOEHM Artistic Director
Upstream Theater's program is guided by founding Artistic Director Philip Boehm, whose career zigzags across languages and borders, artistic disciplines and cultural divides. As a theater director fluent in several languages he has staged dozens of professional productions at theaters in Poland, Slovakia, and the United States. As a dramatist his produced plays include Mixtitlan, Soul of a Clone, Alma en venta, The Death of Atahualpa, and Return of the Bedbug. For this work he has received awards from the Mexican-American Fund for Culture and the NEA. Locally he has received Kevin Kline Awards both as a director and as a playwright.
He is also the author of more than thirty translations of novels and plays by German and Polish writers, including Nobel laureate Herta Müller, Franz Kafka, Bertolt Brecht, and Hanna Krall. For his work as a translator he has received prizes from a number of institutions including the American Translators Association, the U.K. Society of Authors, the Polish Cultural Institute, the Goethe Institute, PEN USA, the Austrian Ministry of Culture, and the Texas Institute of Letters, as well as fellowships from the NEA and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation.
Originally from Texas, Mr. Boehm studied at Wesleyan University (CT), Washington University in St. Louis, and the State Academy of Theater in Warsaw, Poland.

Note what Nick Dearden actually says
This is a classic example of the casuistry common to Global Justice Now and their ilk:
Unsafe baby food
Even baby food carries higher risks in the US. In Britain, baby food has special standards including a complete ban on artificial colours and E-numbers, very low maximum levels of pesticides and limits on added sugar. The US has no specific regulations for baby food. A recent test of baby foods in the US found that 95% contained toxic metals, with 73% containing traces of arsenic. While the amounts may be small, the lack of tight regulation on US baby foods, and the certainty that sugar is often added to toddler snack food, should cause deep disquiet.
And what were the results of testing European baby food for those same toxic metals and arsenic? For that's the thing he doesn't tell us, isn't it?
He says the rules are different for E-numbers and sugar, then talks about proof of metals – but then doesn't compare the metals contents.
That is, the usual somewhere between lying and mere propaganda……
previousErr, yes?
nextWords do have meanings

Arsenic isn't toxic in low quantities. It's like saying lots of people die of drowning, so we should ban water.

…a complete ban on artificial colours and E-numbers…
True, breast milk doesn't have an E number yet. However, I expect to read about high levels of pesticides and micro-plastics any day now.
Don't wish to seem ungrateful –but to paraphrase Jack Nicholson "we didn't ask".
Appreciate that one of the many obnoxious things about the age of computer crap is that nothing can be left alone no matter how well it works.
But are green "ink" and obnoxious pseudo-typewriter fonts really unavoidable? If you can't make new–supposedly improved–systems recreate the look of an old favourite then that is going backwards technically not any sort of progress.
I appreciate your blog and that it is here but it would be nice–like one of those gentlemen's clubs–to have some place that still remains unaltered by the antics of vile "modernity".

CORRECTION: Between 2012 and 2016, we may have inadvertently given some readers the mistaken impression that the United States of America was an exciting, progressive, technological wonderland full of delightful diversity, culinary excellence and the avant garde of #wokieness.
After consulting with leading Orangebadmanologists, we would like to clarify that the USA is a terrifying post-apocalyptic wasteland of misgendering, radioactive bargain buckets that whisper "Quaid… Quaid… Start the reactor…" while you're eating them, and baby food made from the still-twitching remains of fumigated tropical spiders like the ones that ate Julian Sands in "Arachnophobia".
The Guardian apologises for any confusion.

' E-numbers…'
E330 is citric acid found in lemons and oranges, E260 is acetic acid found in vinegar, E101 is Riboflavin Vitamin B found in all sorts of stuff. Even ants have an E number E236 Formic acid.
The E number index is a list of common chemicals which are acceptable as additives in food and drugs. They may be naturally occurring or synthesised. Water has E170 calcium carbonate – among others.
(And OMG, the air we breath, the cause of planetary destruction is an E number E290 Carbon Dioxide.)
This means all our fresh food – meat, veg, fruit, cereals, pulses, legumes are packed full of E numbers.
There can be no ban on E numbers in UK baby food as there would be no food in it.
Ignorance about the subject is a necessary qualification to be activist/environmentalist/politician/celeb.
rhoda klapp March 3, 2020 at 3:46 pm
And of course the US doesn't have e numbers, the e is for europe.
Grikath March 3, 2020 at 6:26 pm
"True, breast milk doesn't have an E number yet."
It contains several, actually.. By design.
What the E-Number conspiracists forget is that the E-number list is almost exclusively made up of susbstances that occur in food naturally. By their proper scientific name, which suddenly lakes them Scaaaaaareyyy…
Bite into an organically grown, vegan-approved bit of fruit grown on freshly caught morning dew and moonbeams, and you're biting into a list of E-numbers longer than your arm..
TJ March 3, 2020 at 6:29 pm
E140 Chlorophyll, E150 Caramel, E153 Carbon Black, E160 Carotene, E162 Beet red etc.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_number
And please can we convince them to voluntarily give up E948… Also the deadly chemical Di-Hydrogen oxide also known as Oxygen di-hydride.
N.B. E948 is Oxygen!
Can someone on the Gruaniad "Kommet its Frei" ask if Nick Dearden has given up E948!
Noel C March 3, 2020 at 7:10 pm
You don't get arsenic free rice, because of how and where it is grown (and rice is very common in baby food).
You do however get rice with an acceptably low level of arsenic, that nuance being easily ignored when you need an alarmist story.
TJ, Then he would be producing ( albeit rather briefly) massive amounts of E270 along with elevated E290. Worse, he'll also produce CAS 67-64-1 and E240, classing him as chemically hazardous waste…
On second thought… that would be a good thing, innit?
Pcar March 3, 2020 at 8:35 pm
containing traces of arsenic. While the amounts may be small
I'd bet testing of UK/EU Apple baby food reveals traces of cyanide.
While the amounts may be small, they don't matter. If they did MSM would be full of "Thousands of Babies dying in USA due to food poisoning"

James O'Brien, LBC's sanctimonious Left Troll
"The cause of O'Brien's vendetta almost certainly is this encounter from January 2019. On his LBC show, O'Brien is a flat-track bully who delights in using his privileged platform to embarrass inexperienced callers with opposing opinions. In Jacob Rees-Mogg, O'Brien found himself outclassed (in both senses) by an opponent who always had an answer and repeatedly teased the host while remaining unfailingly polite, hence O'Brien's hyperbolic hatred
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DF3OQkWEyZA
During the final few minutes, JRM chides the increasingly irritable host for using a quote 'selectively and out of context to make a wrong point'. James O'Brien's continued trolling of Jacob Rees-Mogg over Grenfell is yet more of the same shtick

Doctors, accountants, ministers, lawyers, demonstrators - they're all government agents as America descends into total police state
Monday, August 01, 2016 by: Daniel Barker
Tags: government agents, police state, surveillance
(NaturalNews) The United States government has long employed undercover agents to conduct investigative work, but in the past these practices were generally limited to law enforcement agencies such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
It has been revealed recently, however, that more than 40 federal agencies are now conducting their own undercover operations, and it may come as a surprise to many people just how widespread the practice has become.
For example, the Agriculture Department has more than 100 undercover agents who pose as food stamp recipients in an effort to catch those involved in fraud. The Supreme Court employs undercover agents to pose as protesters during demonstrations, and the IRS sends agents into the field to catch tax evaders.
In fact, these various agencies are currently employing undercover agents who pose as -- according to The New York Times -- "business people, welfare recipients, political protesters and even doctors or ministers."
Observers are concerned that the increased number of undercover operations will lead to civil liberties abuses and entrapment issues, as well as many other problems.
As The New York Times article reports, these operations have already "resulted in hidden problems, with money gone missing, investigations compromised and agents sometimes left largely on their own for months."
The increase in undercover operations is partly due to heightened security concerns since the 911 attacks, but many of them are not related to domestic terrorism.
Instead, they reflect a more aggressive approach to growing criminal activities like identity theft, online solicitation and human trafficking, or a push from Congress to crack down on more traditional crimes.
Although undercover work can be a very effective means of gathering evidence against criminals, do we really need undercover agents working for agencies such as NASA, the Small Business Administration or the Education Department? Is it wise or even necessary to have minors posing as decoys in convenience stores to catch vendors who might sell cigarettes or alcohol to them?
There have been a number of recent scandals involving investigations that, for many observers, have crossed the line between the legitimate use of undercover agents and operations that are invasive, unethical or even illegal.
One such case involved an FBI agent who posed as an Associated Press reporter to reveal the identity of a person who made a bomb threat to a high school in Lacey, Washington. In defending the operation after news media advocates criticized the practice, FBI Director James B. Comey wrote: "every undercover operation involves 'deception,' which has long been a critical tool in fighting crime."
But how far that kind of deception should be allowed to go is a legitimate concern for those who wish to protect our privacy, freedom and civil liberties.
Before the fall of the Berlin Wall, the notorious East German security ministry known as the Stasi employed similar tactics in spying on and controlling the populace. At one point, it was estimated that up to 20 percent of the citizens living in East Berlin were coerced into spying on their colleagues, friends, families and neighbors.
These practices are becoming so widespread in the U.S. that it makes one wonder if we are headed in the same direction. The very foundation of the liberty that Americans have fought so hard to obtain is in direct contradiction with this pervasive snooping that our government is now engaged in.
We can no longer consider ourselves to be living in a free society if these types of operations are allowed to expand without some form of meaningful restrictions.
Surely the Founding Fathers did not wish to create a nation in which citizens are forced to spy on each other to maintain order and the rule of law.

Hemanth Kumar CR writing for The News Minute stated that "Gangstars feels like a missed opportunity to create something unique and charming. It has its moments, when it takes a sly dig at the film industry, but when it focuses on its own story, it becomes too self-aware of what it wants to do and it never finds its groove."

Taylor Bennett Starts His Own Indie Label
Nick Mojica
Taylor Bennett via YouTube
When it comes to music, Taylor Bennett has always had his own lane separate from brother Chance The Rapper. Now, the Chicago rapper is once again doing his own thing, starting up his own indie record label, Tay Bennett Entertainment.
"What a lot of artists need is a solid foundation," Taylor told Rolling Stone. "As big as I want my artists to be, I want them to be happy," he added.
Bennett isn't the only artist on his new label. The rapper recently signed Chicago-based singer-rapper Bianca Shaw, who was discovered by Bennett's father, Ken Bennett. "My dad called me and said, 'You need to listen to this girl. She's real good!'" Taylor said. "My dad has great taste in music so I took him seriously."
As for Taylor's problems with major labels, the rapper says it has to do with the lies they feed artists."What record labels do is they say, 'When you sign to us you don't have to worry about anything else,'" he said. "But a lot of artists don't know their advances are recoupments. Nobody gets paid a large sum of money and never has to pay it back. You pay it back through your record sales, your touring, your merchandise, features, agency deals, etc. Before you look up you've spent all this money."
The rapper even revealed he's friends with artists who are signed to labels who have no idea what kind of deal they have. "Everything is about percentages to these labels. Everything is about numbers. Everything is about commas. And they don't really give a fuck if you ever become the biggest artist in the world or if you're just another Joe what's-his-name," he added.
Up next for the rapper, he and Shaw are working on her upcoming EP and full-length album. "I feel like they've adopted me into their family," said Shaw. "I want to follow in those same footsteps. I feel like I'm in great hands."
Ahead of the release of her projects, the two released Shaw's latest single, "So High." Of the track, Shaw said, "As soon as we made it, we both looked at each other like, 'This is the one.'"
Earlier this year, Bennett dropped his latest album, Restoration of an American Idol. The nine-track project included features from Chance, Raury, KYLE, Supa Bwe, Stro, Jeremih and more.
Listen to "So High" below.
