Evening Reading: The Bioware Definition of RPG
Casey Hudson served as the project director on Mass Effect 2 and I think as you play it you'll really be able to see what he's talking about in action. Hudson's gut response to the question was that we tend to pigeonhole games based off some game to which we then compare every subsequent one of that type. To Bioware he said, "the high level idea of what an RPG is, is not rooted in a reference game." He then gave three founding elements for their definition:
- Story plays a central role, and the player's involvement as the character can change the outcome of that story.
- Combat is more considered than a pure action game and incorporates tactical concepts.
- The player's character grows over the course of the game developing skills, abilities, etc.
When I later sat down with doctors Greg Zeschuk and Ray Muzyka, they reiterated these points and offered a little additional color on the subject. Story is, they said, "the mirror that reflects your actions." With combat they then try to create the "chill down the back of the neck" experienced as an explorer of new worlds. And character progression is the equivalent of the classic literary hero's journey. They also see a fourth defining element emerging in social interaction between players outside the traditional definition of the game space.
From my experience playing a considerable amount of Mass Effect 2 over the weekend I think it will be very interesting to see how people respond to their design approach. I'm not through the game so I won't have a review coming but I will post some in-depth impressions from the first 25 hours or so of the game.
Here's a few things from today on the Shack to tide you over until then:
- 2K scales back BioShock 2 DRM plans
- BFBC2 'Squad Rush' mode only for GameStop pre-orders in North America
- PC version of Assassin's Creed 2 dated and system requirements given
- Monster Hunter Tri coming in bundle with classic controller pro for Wii
- Next Left 4 Dead 2 update in a few weeks
- Vote for the cars you want in upcoming Forza 3 DLC packs
- EA using separate engines for single-player and multiplayer in the next Medal of Honor
Oh, and a quick update because we have stuff to give away. Want a Sacred 2 BattleMat mouse pad? Start/get in the thread to that effect and we'll pick 40 winners to send one out to.
you'll have to make do with this

Justified Executive Producer Graham Yost Talks Season 4 Homestretch
Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant) finally got his man out of Harlan alive on the Tuesday's episode of Justified, but the end of the Drew Thompson mystery/pursuit doesn't necessarily mean an end to the case - there are still two episodes left this season, after all. TV Guide Magazine called up executive producer Graham Yost for a preview of the homestretch.
TV Guide Magazine: Now that the mystery's over, what's next?
Graham Yost: There's a moment at the end of episode 10 when Shelby/Drew (Jim Beaver) says, "Take care of Ellen May," and Raylan sarcastically says, "Yeah, I'll get right on that." That comes to sort of bite Raylan in the next episode [airing March 26], and he's got to deal with it. There are aftershocks, but we wrap up Ellen May [Abby Miller] then.
TV Guide Magazine: Hopefully not in a body bag. Ellen May turned out great.
Yost: Abby Miller was one of those things that again we've been so blessed with on Justified. Ellen May grew from just one scene in Season 2. And then we had lots of debates over whether or not she would die in Season 3. And, by the way, we had a big debate at the end of the fourth episode this season, over whether or not she was going to die then. But episode 12 comes down to the main players revolving around Ellen May, and Colt (Ron Eldard), who lost her, and Gutterson (Jacob Pitts), who has it in for Colt. We thought of having everything come together in the finale, and then it was just, "You know, let's do one thing at a time."
TV Guide Magazine: Joelle Carter said you've labeled this season's theme as "the road to hell is paved with good intentions." Was she telling it true?
Yost: Yep! Just think: The original sin is that Ava killed Delroy (William Mapother) in order to save Ellen May. What happens from that, it's like, when you kill someone, it's not all just going to be worked out fine. And that continues to haunt her character right to the end of the season.
TV Guide Magazine: She also said she's always pushing for Ava to be more of a badass and the writers tend to push back, especially you. She said you don't want her to get too bad.
Yost: [Laughs] The thing about Boyd and Ava is that we love them, and we love Boyd as a bad guy; but Ava, I think, is more of a stand-in for the audience, as someone who's fallen into this thing. We don't want her to fall too far. We like it when she has some steel in her: last year when she hit Devil with the frying pan, that was fun. And the whole thing with Delroy was, "That guy needed to die," and she did it. But going over that line to doing really dark stuff, it's like, "Oh Ava, don't." You'll see how it plays out. If Joelle wants some more bad stuff, I'll write her some more bad stuff.
TV Guide Magazine: Does Raylan think he can win Winona [Natalie Zea] back if he gets promoted?
Yost: You know, Raylan's goal isn't so much to win her back but to grow up, to be a provider for his child. We find out more about that in episode 12. There's a little scene between them at the end of 12 that starts out sweet and turns ominous at the end. And so Raylan in the final episode has to do everything he can to protect Winona and his child on the way, which puts him at great odds with the other great love of his life: being a U.S. Marshal. That is the great dilemma for Raylan at the end of the season.
TV Guide Magazine: There's a showdown Detroit that seems to be looming; does that dilemma tie into it?
Yost: Yes. That all comes about because of his quest to rise in the hierarchy of the Marshals Service. His drive for that ends up having a potentially catastrophic effect on the people who matter most to him. That's sort of always been Raylan's dilemma, in a way. We made the choice fairly early on that we wouldn't drag out the mystery of who Drew Thompson was or the getting of him beyond a certain point. So we found out in episode 9 who Drew is; 10 was trying to get him; and 11 was trying to get him out of Harlan.
TV Guide Magazine: Episode 11 is one of the best you guys have ever done.
Yost: I mean, one of the reasons that episode is amazing is because I co-wrote it. So... No, no. But you know, it was me and Chris Provenzano, but it was also Tim [Olyphant]'s input. It was Tim's idea to have the whole beatdown with Constable Bob [Patton Oswalt]. And [director] Michael Watkins just completely embraced this idea of doing a Western. And Michael has shot documentaries in Afghanistan and just loves the whole military aspect of it, so it all just really came together in that one. Jacob Pitts said that's the most fun he's had.
TV Guide Magazine: I loved the bit where the Molotov cocktail gets lit and there's a moment of panic, like, "Who's gonna throw it?!"
Yost: [Laughs] That wasn't entirely scripted, you know. Originally it was going to be Gutterson who threw it, but then on the day they were like, "Let's let Art do it." Stuff like that, when you see the cut you go, "Oh, I am so happy to be working with all these people who are all just so invested in finding the coolest, funniest way to do things."
TV Guide Magazine: I also loved the music in the scene with YOLO [Being Human's Bobby Campo].
Yost: He was great!I'm gonna find that guy, we'll be looking for other things in other shows, because he was just so amazing. But the music, that was Michael Watkins' thing. He was like, "Let's do this homage to Tarantino and Reservoir Dogs," the infamous torture scene with "Stuck In the Middle With You," and someone said, "Let's do 'Love Train,'" and we just went for it.
TV Guide Magazine: Are we done dealing with Arlo's [Raymond J. Barry] death? Do we get a funeral, or is Raylan not having that nonsense?
Yost: No, but there's an echo at the end of the season.
TV Guide Magazine: You probably hate getting this question at this point, but does that "echo" mean we'll hear "You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive" in the finale?
Yost: That's the huge thing we're dealing with right now. The plan is yes, but we'll see in the final. It looks like we're going to use a different version. It's funny, I was e-mailing with our music supervisor, Greg Sill, that if we could afford to do it, it'd be great to put out an EP at the end of the series of all the versions of that song that people have done for us. It'd be beholden of us, I think, to use the original by Darrell Scott, which is a very heartfelt, muscular version. That was a song that one of the writers found when we were working on the first season. I'd never heard it before - I'm not a big country guy - and then it turns out that there are many versions of it, and one of the reasons is that it's just a great story-song. Although, it's not a singular story, it's more about a place, which suits us.

Investment Advice Bureau Review for the New Traders and the Investors
Investment Advice Bureau can help you to achieve your investment goals in the competitive market. Choosing the right broker for your investment is also a critical task. If you don't pay attention to the selection part, you may end up with a scam broker and that is not going to be good for you.
Investment Advice Bureau might be an amazing option but you need to analyze different business aspects first. Blindly trusting the offers and guarantees of a broker can be a big mistake. Here is everything you need to know about Investment Advice Bureau if you don't want to worry about fund recovery later on.
Is Investment Advice Bureau a Scam?
Finding the proofs for scams committed by a broker is not easy. You have to go through the entire history and record of the broker. However, not every broker with a bad reputation is really a scam. There are many reasons why brokers get negative reviews. The most common one is that the trader is not committed to trading with the broker, or he simply doesn't want to be successful at it.
Fund recovery specialists are the right professionals if you are willing to investigate the Investment Advice Bureau for possible scam attempts. Usually, the scams are so well-crafted and engineered that common traders will not be able to identify that something is wrong with the broker. Only expert analysts can do this for you.
Investment Advice Bureau Withdrawal Issues
A withdrawal issue with a broker is the most frustrating thing for a trader. You invest your money to make profits but sometimes brokers hold your payments or don't approve the withdrawals. If there are issues with the withdrawals, you need to beware of the possible issues before committing to the services by the broker. There are many advantages and disadvantages of the Investment Advice Bureau trading platforms and we aim to help you with your trading by giving you the success tips on how to trade on them.
The key benefits of using Investment Advice Bureau is that it provides users with a robust platform for trading as the platform is highly secure and has a feature that makes your experience great. Besides, they also provide you with fast and secured withdrawals as well as the best exchange rate/rate which produces the best profit for Investment Advice Bureau users. Still, things are not always smooth so you can trust the verdict of fund recovery specialists when it comes to withdrawal issues with brokers.
Investment Advice Bureau No Support
What if Investment Advice Bureau does not provide the needed support when things are going sideways? How will you manage disputes and issues with your account without professional help? The quality of support is the best indicator to determine the entire legitimacy of the broker. A professional broker must offer required assistance and support whenever you are stuck at some point. Are you able to get the desired assistance 24 hours a day or required support during an emergency? If not, then you must ask yourself why in the first place. Considering that Investment Advice Bureau provides the best quality in customer service, keep that in your mind when signing up.
What to do if Investment Advice Bureau is not Responding?
If your broker is not responding, it can be an alarming situation. A professional broker must be available in the short window if you need any type of help. If Investment Advice Bureau is not responding, fund recovery specialists can help you to secure your funds. They use special tools and resources to secure your funds. In all cases, any trader who has been scammed or hacked should try to recover his funds first. If the amount is small, he can try to resolve it between him and the broker/exchange.
An accurate analysis of the Investment Advice Bureau can save you from any trouble. All things that can affect your experience with the Investment Advice Bureau must be considered before signing up for the services. Having fund recovery specialists on your side is never a bad idea.
Investment Advice Bureau Aggressive Sales
Aggressive sales tactics can be illegal so make sure that your broker is not practicing these sale strategies. Aggressive sales strategies can cause trouble for the brokers and the traders. Brokers have many contacts and they are very experienced in selling, so they have better chances of selling your assets than you do.
Also, if they will sell your asset for you, they usually charge a certain percent of the amount of money that was sold for your asset. If the broker cannot sell the product for you but he will try his best to do that and he will spend some money on marketing etc. These tactics may offer short-term benefits but you will not get the long-term results if you are a consistent trader. Fund recovery specialists can help you to identify if Investment Advice Bureau is applying aggressive sales strategies.
Is Investment Advice Bureau Legit?
Be sure that your broker has passed all of the regulatory requirements for securities transactions in your state or region. This information will vary by location, so you'll need to research it yourself. If you think that is beyond your capabilities, you can hire the services of fund recovery service providers to help you with this analysis. If there are certain indicators of fraud and scams, you should stay away from the broker. Investment Advice Bureau may not be the scammer but it is always in your better interest to pay some attention to these details that might affect your investment later on.
It's important that any stocks or other investments you buy are bought at market value, not above or below market value; otherwise, it could be illegal insider trading and punishable by fines and/or imprisonment under federal law.
Are there Hidden Investment Advice Bureau Fees?
While working with the broker, you expect clear and straightforward service charges. If the broker has some hidden charges to rip you off, you are probably working with the wrong broker. Most brokers charge their customers the following:
– A Commission on the trades they execute for you. Most brokers also charge commissions on margin sales and overnight loans. There are no hidden fees.
– A fee for providing paper trading and trading services (software, spot trading, etc.). There are no hidden fees.
– A fee for providing options underwriting and portfolio management services. There are no hidden fees.
– The actual cost of their services is usually less than what you pay as a commission to the broker as well as any other service charges such as paper trades or margin sales etc.
Is Investment Advice Bureau Good or Bad?
You can analyze the services and perks offered by the broker to determine if your chosen broker is good or bad. If the broker is good, they will provide you with additional services such as research on specific investments, high-quality customer service, or access to experienced traders. If the broker is bad, they may shortchange you on what they promise or leave out important details about their operations.
Brokers are similar to banks in that there are good and bad brokerage firms. Brokers connect buyers of financial securities with sellers of securities or other financial products like mutual funds. In case you are having a hard time finding the best broker for your financial management, you can ask the fund recovery specialists for recommendations. They can guide you about the best options available for secure and safer trading options.
Common Investment Advice Bureau Complaints
What are the common complaints registered by the previous clients regarding the quality of the service? How are these broker complaints going to impact your transactions? All of these questions and issues are closely related to choosing the best broker for your trading goals. Let us explore the method to identify a broker that fits your needs and requirements.
The biggest complaint about a broker is the reliability. The main purpose of having a broker is to execute trades; therefore it is quite understandable that you might encounter issues in executing trades promptly. If you do not buy from the best broker, then the next best one will come to your rescue. You will likely lose assets if you choose an unprofessional or unreliable broker, thus it's recommended that you take into account your demands and review high-quality brokers based on them for finding one that fits perfectly well with your style of trading and approach.
Choosing a reliable broker for trading is a serious decision. You cannot choose a broker based on the details provided on their site. You have to perform your research about details that matter. There are countless important aspects of choosing a reliable and trusted broker. Most of the beginners make the first mistake of not doing enough research about the broker. It is vital to check and research the most important factors.
Firstly you should look at the regulatory body that regulates that broker. You cannot choose a broker who does not abide by any of the regulatory policies. Choosing a regulated broker will give you more credibility and trust that you are dealing with an honest business brokerage company or firm. If it is not regulated, then you should research other aspects too. The next important thing about choosing a legit broker is checking its track record, history, reputation, etc. It should have a good reputation in the industry for providing good service to its clients.
You can get information about this through brokerage forums or sites where people have posted their reviews about this broker. The other and authentic way to find these details is to invest in fund recovery specialists.

Too good for Federer, Nadal into Aussie final
By John Pye
The Associated Press
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA | The way Rafael Nadal managed to somehow retrieve a forehand midway through the second set shocked even Roger Federer, who has been on the receiving end of the Spaniard's unbelievable shots more than anyone else in Grand Slams.
It was a tipping point in their Australian Open semifinal. Federer had lost the first-set tiebreaker but was still throwing his whole arsenal at Nadal.
At 15-30 in the sixth game of the second set, Federer thought he'd wrong-footed Nadal with a volley deep into the left corner. Nadal lunged for a desperate forehand, swinging just as the ball was about to bounce for the second time and angling it back over the net. Federer, in good position but not expecting he'd need to play another shot, framed a volley. It gave Nadal a breakpoint, and he quickly broke Federer for the first time in the match.
He completed his 23rd win in 33 head-to-heads, and ninth in 11 Grand Slam matches, 7-6 (4), 6-3, 6-3 in 2 hours and 24 minutes against the 17-time major winner.
A win over another Swiss, No. 8-seeded Stan Wawrinka, in Sunday's final, would give Nadal a 14th Grand Slam title and make him the first man to win all four majors at least twice in the Open era.
Nadal missed the 2013 Australian Open during a seven-month layoff for illness and a knee injury, but returned to win the French and U.S. Opens among his 10 titles for the season and finished the year at No. 1. He won the Australian Open in 2009, beating Federer in the final, and lost in a five-set, 5-hour, 53-minute 2012 final to Novak Djokovic after ousting Federer in the semis. In other years, he's struggled with injuries - it's the only Grand Slam tournament he hasn't won at least twice.
"It's really, really emotional for me to be back on this court, and to be able to play another final - tonight I played the best match of the tournament," he said. "Very emotional moments in the Rod Laver Arena in the past, very emotional moments this year especially because (this) is the Grand Slam that I really had more problems in my career."
Injuries kept him out of the 2006 Australian Open and hampered his progress in the 2010 and '11 quarterfinals.
"Lot of years I didn't have a chance to play in this tournament that I really love so much with the perfect conditions," he said. "So is very special have the chance to be in the final here again."
By reaching his first major final with a win over Tomas Berdych on Thursday night, Wawrinka ensured he'd replace Federer as Switzerland's highest-ranked player for the first time.
But the 32-year-old Federer is confident of returning to his old winning ways, expecting some coaching from Stefan Edberg and continued improvement in his fitness to help after a slump in 2013, when he didn't reach any of the major finals for the first time in 11 years.
"I still think my best tennis is only ahead of me now," he said.
Nadal is now second on the list of players reaching Grand Slam finals, joining Ivan Lendl on 19 - Federer leads the list with 24. Another Grand Slam title would lift Nadal to equal second on the all-time list with Pete Sampras, who was in the crowd for the match.
Nadal has struggled with a blister on the palm of his left hand in his last two matches, but he removed the heavy tape that affected his serve in his quarterfinal win over Grigor Dimitrov and replaced it with one square of adhesive tape.
"The blister is OK," Nadal said. "The problem ... is the position of the blister, it's difficult." But, he added, he didn't feel any pain.
He certainly didn't show it if he did. He resisted just about everything Federer threw at him, scrambling to keep balls in play that usually would be winners.
Federer served and volleyed, he played with good touch, he played drop shots, he tried everything - even complaining to the chair umpire about Nadal's loud grunting after the tiebreaker - but his 50 resulting unforced errors doubled the number by his rival.
Left-handed Nadal hit 13 of his 28 winners on his powerful forehand side, attacking Federer's one-handed backhand yet again.
"I tried a few things ... then again, Rafa does a good job of neutralizing you," Federer said. "So I guess at times I couldn't quite do what I wanted to do, but that's because of Rafa."
Li Na will be hoping for third time lucky in the women's final on Saturday against Dominika Cibulkova. The 2011 French Open champion has reached the Australian Open final in three of the past four years, but is yet to win the title.

Brad Warner's Hardcore Zen: Secure Your Mask Before Helping Others4
Posted In Blog,Love,Relationships,Society
by Brad Warner
A few people have responded to my blog by comparing me to this or that teacher and saying those guys are much better because they encourage their followers to help others. One reader advised me to get over myself and, "learn to live for others." It's good advice, to be sure. But what exactly does it mean?
One of the complaints often lodged against Zen is that it's a selfish philosophy and practice. Spiritual teachers of other schools are always talking about how we should give to others, help those in need, lend a hand to our brothers and so on. But when you take a look at Zen literature there's not a whole lot of that. Oh, Dogen Zenji talks a bit about compassion and sometimes you hear the Metta Sutra, the Buddha's words on kindness, chanted at Zen temples in America. Although elsewhere in the world this chant is more associated with the Theravada school than with Zen.
Zen, on the other hand, tends to seem self-centered. Rather that hearing a lot about how we should be of service to others, the standard canonical texts of Zen appear to focus on what we need to do to improve our own situation and state of mind. They do sometimes make reference to helping others and saving all beings. But these references are almost always a bit abstract. They say we need to help others, but don't go very deeply into how that might be done. This focus on the self is ironic considering that Zen is often portrayed as a practice aimed at eradicating the self.
But have you ever glanced up randomly when you're on an airplane ignoring the flight attendants safety instructions? When they tell you how to use those oxygen masks they say that you should first secure your own mask before helping others. There's a good reason for this. If the plane is losing oxygen you're going to be too woozy to be of service to anyone else until you first get your own stuff together. This is the way it is in life as well.
It sounds really sweet when someone tells you that you ought to be selflessly serving those less fortunate than you. It's a beautiful and highly attractive idea. There's no better way to make yourself seem really holy than to advocate selflessness. Religious leaders have known for centuries that the best way to cultivate a devoted following who'll gratefully fill up the collection plate is to spread the word that a truly holy person gives to others until it hurts.
It's always comforting to be told that the source of the world's troubles is out there, in other people, in our surroundings and circumstances and not in ourselves. Much of what passes for religion these days takes as its underlying unstated assumption and starting point that we ourselves are OK. It's those other people that need fixing, not us. It's painful when that assumption is challenged. I understand that because it was painful to me when I first came across the supposedly selfish aspects of Zen.
The underlying problem is the same as the problem with the emergency oxygen masks on airplanes. In our usual condition we are far too woozy to be of much service to anyone else. When our own condition is all messed up our attempts to be helpful are more likely to make things worse than to improve them.
That's not to say we shouldn't do anything when we see someone is in trouble. We always have to act from the state we're in at this moment. It's our duty to do what we can with what we have.
One of the greatest and most useful lessons I've learned from Zen practice is how not to help. Zen teachers are often seen as cold. Lots of times in this practice when you go to your teacher in times of distress, instead of being met with warm hugs and reassuring words you're given the cold shoulder. You're told to take care of the problem yourself. This seems mean, heartless, even cruel.
But as Shakespeare and Nick Lowe noticed sometimes you need to be cruel to be kind (in the right measure). The best way to be truly helpful is often to leave things be. I used to find this all the time when I worked for Tsuburaya Productions. It was often best to allow a bad scheme to fail and then fix it. Jumping into the fray and try to fix things before they broke often was the worst idea. Because then the same thing just kept happening over and over. People learn best from their own mistakes and learn nothing when you fix things for them.
This is not always easy. We want to help. Our self-image is tied up in being a good person and a good person is a helpful person. It damages our ego when we have to let things be instead of jumping in to fix them. Sometimes the hardest thing you can do is to not be helpful. People resent it. They label you as a bad person. Because they don't want to have to deal with their own shit, they want someone else to deal with it for them. They want Superman to rush in and save the day after they've messed things up.
On the other hand it's important to be of service, to "learn to live for others." We are not independent objects. We are part of an intimately connected network of sentient and non-sentient beings that stretches all the way to the end of the universe. We never really live just for ourselves, even when we try to do so. To try and live for yourself just causes pain. Not just to others, but to ourselves as well.
The problem is not whether we should live for others or not. The problem is how we should live for others. If our efforts to help end up doing more harm than good, then we aren't truly living for others any more than the most selfish cad among us lives for himself. We're just feeding our own egos, establishing a clearer and more fixed self image as a good person.
It's important to discover how to truly help. And sometimes that means not helping.

Posted by Anonymous on 2009-04-24
I have to give a lot of credit to Gil Dibner.
He's one of the few persons we met from the VC industry that quickly understood what our business is all about and its potential.
His attitude was always positive and constructive, spent a lot of energy meeting with us and giving suggestions and also was honest enough to tell us when things went sour with the VC.
We had several meetings with the partners and most of the people we met gave the impression of being friendly and honest. In addition in our case they moved very quickly (we reached the last phase before TS but were declined).
Overall I think they are probably among the top 3 Israeli VCs that I'll be approaching with my next venture.PRIVATE: Members Only (257 Characters)

Genesis is one of the leading VC's in Israel.
I had the pleasure of working with them for a very long period of time and I just enjoyed every minute.
The level of the professional team is outstanding, from the administrative assistants in the lobby to the most senior partner - a real class act which is often missing in the Israeli panorama.
I think all and all the people composition in Genesis is truly remarkable, I have had the chance to talk to most of them and most of them left a very positive impression.
I would like to point out 3 different individuals and address them personally.
Eddy Shalev - An incredible professional, a titan in the VC world, a true gentleman.
Gil Dibner - One of the most inteligent, hard working, honest people I know.
Hadar Kiriati - Savvy in his field, a great guy, honest and true.

Out of all the VC's in Israel I have pitched to, Gil definitely is one of the most knowledgeable about the Social Networking Space. He asked the right (hard) questions, made the right conclusions and gave us valuable feedback both on the technology as well as the funding side of the equation. The entire management team felt his inputs were very beneficial to the company. When he informed us that we are a bit "early" for them he spent time (almost 30 minutes on the phone!) explaining in detail what they will need to see in order to move forward and then proceeded to introduce us to numerous people who could fill in the gaps to make us more "fundable". While they did not fund us yet (and I don't know that they will) our time spent with Gil was worth its weight in Gold - he should provide lessons to the other VC's as to how to really add value beyond the money that they bring to the table. I am certain that anyone who has the good fortune of having Gil on their board will be 10X closer to success thanks to his insights, contacts and dedication to the people he works with.PRIVATE: Members Only

We first met Gil during our discussions with Genesis and found him to be very professional, supportive and positive. His advice was always constructive and he spent many hours, often on his own free time, working with us, discussing our business and providing additional helpful feedback.
Although for various reasons we ended up getting funding from other sources, Gil continued to be enthusiastic about our company and to provide his help and advice. He also put us in touch with a top notch consultant that proved to be invaluable to the company.
My experience working with Gil was very positive and he would definitely be one of the first people I turn to for funding in my future projects.PRIVATE: Members Only

We had a totally different experience pitching Genesis. Gil joined in to a meeting with Eyal Kishon. He championed the due diligence in a professional manner and was enthusiastic about the company. During the DD he had put us in contact with potential customers and provided valuable information and shared his findings. Although Genesis investment did not materialized from other reasons, his involvement was positive, professional and respectful. I can not support those claims altogether, it sounds to me like a different person.PRIVATE: Members Only

Blue Devils take Straits Conference lead
SAULT STE. MARIE — Sault High has moved into first place in the Straits Area Conference.
The defending conference champion Blue Devils clipped Cheboygan 62-48 Friday night. Sault High (9-4 overall, 6-1 SAC) takes sole possession of first place in the Straits Area Conference — one game ahead of Cheboygan and St. Ignace, with three league contests remaining.
Ray'Shon Anderson scored 16 points and Kyle Root had 13 points for the Blue Devils. Terrance Fuller scored six points and grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds. Frank Bailey dished out eight assists and Ray'Nell Anderson had seven assists.
Sault High took early command, surging to a 17-9 first quarter lead.
"I thought getting off to a good start was the key for us tonight," Sault High coach Bill Schomberg said. "The first two minutes were a little slow, but then we started getting things rolling and got some good looks. It was nice to get an early lead."
The Blue Devils led 36-20 at halftime. Cheboygan chipped away at the lead in the second half, but could never completely recover.
Ben Pearson scored 14 points but was the only player to hit double figures for the Chiefs (6-5, 5-2).
"They didn't miss too many early on, and we were always trying to play catch-up," Cheboygan coach Kevin Baller said. "It's tough to play that way.
"Turnvoers killed us, and we gave them too many second chances on rebounds," Baller said. "When you are playing a good team like the Sault and they miss, you have to keep them off the boards. We didn't do a good job of that."
The Blue Devils, who are shooting for their third straight SAC title, held a 43-28 rebounding advantage. Root finished with an efficient 5-for-5 from the field and 1-of-2 from the line.
Sault High got solid contributions from its bench, with Michael James putting up five points and Jeff Monck and Matt Eilola chipping in four points each.
"When we set our season goals, the first one on the list was to win the conference," Schomberg said. "We control our own destiny now, but we have to stay focused. St. Ignace comes up here next Friday, and we want to play a lot better against them than we did last time."
Sault High visits Pickford Monday, and plays host to St. Ignace on Feb. 8.
CHEBOYGAN — Dixon 4, Fontaine 4, Proctor 3, Pearson 14, Bevier 9, Schott 6, Harrington 6, Purcell 2. FT: 6-13; F: 15; 3PFG: 6 (Pearson 3, Proctor 2, Bevier 1).
SAULT HIGH — Ray'Nell Anderson 9, Bailey 5, Ray'Shon Anderson 16, Root 13, Fuller 6, James 5, Monck 4, Eilola 4. FT: 9-12; F: 17; 3PFG: 5 (Root 2, Ray'Nell Anderson 1, Bailey 1, James 1).

Let's see...it all started last night when B's mom called and asked if I wanted to go blueberry picking with her in the morning...at the crack of dawn to avoid the heat. Yes, yes, yes....provided there are a few coffee stops along the way please....Then she threw raspberries in the mix so I
After our little berry picking frenzy (I basically needed her to keep some of my stash in her extra freezer), I pulled in the driveway with a huge basket of raspberries just in time to see one of the twins holding a puppy and walking towards me. Now for those new here (Hello, hello!), we do not have children, we jokingly say that all we have to do is walk next door and borrow C's twins for the day...or they borrow us, there are days one can't tell...Anyways... Her husband had sent her to get new tires and she came back with the wrong tires and a "free" puppy (read no shots or tags and probably younger). Her husband was red as a poppy, the kids were beaming and in her usual Southern nonchalance she just walked up to me and said "help us give him a bath"
I spent a good part of the day taking work breaks to go play with the puppy which we finally named Sullivan. At some point we got distracted by the rest of the brood, a cat, another dog and a turtle (yep, they needed another dog like I need another bill) and did not pay much attention to Sully until we heard is whimpering. We turned around and burst out laughing. He had found a way to climb up the crate full of raspberries and was barely holding his balance not to fall off the tiny ledge and take a dive into it. I guess he got a little too impressed with his Cirque du Soleil capacities and fell head first into the raspberries! I ran over and picked him up, all red and happy licking his paws, face and tail. Once back on the ground he ran back to the crate and tried to climb it again! He surely enjoyed his first baptism by raspberries and was ready for a little more!
I did manage to save quite a bit of the berries after the puppy dive (thank God, they don't weigh much at 8 weeks) and proceeded to make these little Mascarpone Raspberry Gratins. They made me think of Sully: light as feathers, wickedly cute and they really put a smile on my face! The fresh raspberries retain their fresh factor and the cream is rich and smooth without leaving that buttery coating on your tongue.
For the nut topping I have to thank one of my faithful readers, Bina, who sends me the most thoughtful gifts. Last winter, she had sent me an Indian specialty called Chikki, close to a toffee but this almonds, pistachios and cardamom. She emailed saying that her mom had made some more and brought it to the States and she would love to send me some more. Yes please!! So before the stash disappeared completely I did hide a few pieces and crushed them to top the gratins with. She also stitched me the cutest little kitchen towels but I am afraid to get the dirty! To top it all, her packaging is as precious as the gifts.... and since she only lives in the next state over I really hope e get to meet one day soon. Thank you and stop being shy, you are among friends!
Allright, allright, I am done....on to the recipe!
Mascarpone Raspberry Gratins:
Serves 4-6 depending on the size of your ramequins.
1/2 cup (4 oz) mascarpone, at room temperature
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla bean paste or 1 tsp vanilla extract or 1/2 vanilla bean, seeded
1 egg + 1 egg yolk
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup fresh raspberries
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the mascarpone with the sugar until smooth. Add the vanilla, the egg and the egg yolk. Whisk until fully incorporated and add the heavy cream. Make sure everything is well combined and divide between your ramequins, not filling them all the way to the top, about 3/4 full. Divide the raspberries among the gratins and set the dishes in a deep roasting pan. Fill the pan with water, half way up the sides of the dishes and bake at 340 for about 20-25 minutes or until they seem to be barely set: still giggling a little when you move the pan but not completely wobbly. They will continue to bake and set as they cool. Let cool and serve either chilled or at room temperature.

The Indian Sultanates
Umayyad warriors had penetrated into Sindh as early as the beginning of the 8th century, but the Muslim presence in India did not make a decisive impact until the arrival of the Ghaznavids and the Ghurids in the 11th and 12th century. The Ghurids' conquests in northern India laid the basis in around 1200 for the first of a number of Muslim sultanates, often headed by princes of Turkic origin. The Indian sultanates survived until they were swallowed up in the 16th and 17th century by a new, expansive Islamic power in India, the Mughal Empire.
The Delhi Sultanate emerged when one of the Ghurid commanders, Qutb al-Din Aybak, established an independent realm in northern India, with Delhi as its capital. The Delhi Sultanate, which soon reached from Sindh in the west to Bengal in the east, barely repulsed the Mongol invasion in 1241. The influx of Muslims from Iran and Central Asia fleeing the Mongols brought with it both cultural influences and a decisive increase in the Muslim population, since most of the subjects of the realm had been Hindus. The Delhi Sultanate continued its expansion south under the Khalji dynasty (1290-1320), and Muslim dominance on the Indian subcontinent reached its greatest geographical extent under the Tughluqids (1320-1414). After several large-scale campaigns, they ruled all of India for a short period, with the exception of a few Hindu enclaves in the north and south. Despite an attempt to move the capital to Daulatabad in central India, it soon proved impossible to rule the great empire. Several governors declared their independence, and Timur's invasion and plundering of Delhi in 1398-1399 marked the beginning of the end of the Tughluqid realm, which was soon dissolved into a drastically reduced Delhi Sultanate and many minor Muslim states.
The Delhi Sultanate's rulers clearly demonstrated with great buildings with domes, minarets, and special Islamic forms of decoration that Islam had come to India. Hindu motifs and more naturalistic depictions nonetheless influenced Islamic art at an early stage.
One of the Tughluqid commanders had founded an independent realm in the Deccan in 1347. The Bahmanid Sultanate was split up from the end of the 15th century into many smaller states, after which the courts in Bijapur, Golconda, Ahmadnagar, Bidar, and Berar developed into artistic centers that were famous among other things for the production of exquisite metalwork and paintings. Persian culture played an important role there, since several of these sultanates were Shiite and maintained close ties to Safavid Iran. In 1687, Golconda was the last of the Deccan Sultanates to be swallowed up by the Mughal Empire.

Jessie Davis' death is not about race
The tragedy of Jessie Marie Davis is not a reality-TV show. It's not about what you or I think may have happened on the day she vanished. We don't get to cast votes on what should happen to the person or persons responsible.
It is not about providing us with a public venue for our prejudices, be it against cops, interracial dating or unwed mothers.
And as much as some people might wish otherwise, what may have happened to Jessie Davis has nothing to do with race.
Laci Peterson's husband, after all, was white.
It doesn't make her any less dead.
The story of Jessie Davis is about uncovering the truth, no matter how painful. It is about justice and loss and sorrow.
It is about little Blake Davis, who, as a result of terrible decision-making on the part of a lot of adults, has become an orphan of sorts. It's about the toddler who will never meet his little sister, a 2-year-old boy who chatters to his dead mother on a toy cell phone, not realizing that she's never coming back.
However, Sunday's fatal shooting of Essence Green, 22, of Canton, is about race -- namely how a black crime victim rarely, if ever, receives the same degree of attention, public concern or sympathy; even less so if the crime was perpetrated by another black person.
How many of the TV satellite trucks and TV news crews that ringed the Canton Municipal Court on Monday for Bobby Cutts Jr.'s arraignment even bothered to venture just 15 blocks north to the 1300 block of Logan Avenue NW, where Green was shot down in someone's front yard Sunday night?
The murder of Essence Green is about poverty and the instability that it can sometimes inflict.
It is about the short, uphill life that one young woman endured before she died.
It is about a nation that yawns as its inner cities burn; that turns the channel as violence, drugs and despair trap people in an Americanized version of Fallujah.
It is about maintaining the illusion that such crime only occurs in Stark County's poorest, dead-end neighborhoods, and the assumption that the people to whom such things happen probably did something to deserve it.
It is about a popular culture that has historically embraced violence as the most effective means to solve a conflict.
It is about the casual way in which some irresponsible people live by the gun, brandishing it about like so much jewelry.
Like Jessie Davis, the tragedy of Essence Green is about a family that has been forever shattered. It is about a grieving mother, siblings and friends whose lives and hearts have been broken.
It's about a now-motherless 4-year-old girl who, unlike Blake Davis, is old enough to understand that her mother is never coming home.
It is about women like Essence Green, who are not deemed worthy enough to warrant even five seconds of airtime on "Nancy Grace" or "Larry King Live."
Jessie Davis and Essence Green both probably died at the hands of someone they knew. In a different life, their paths might have even crossed. Neither one deserved for her life to end so soon, and in the way it did.
