In 1983, Van Caneghem founded New World Computing, a publisher and developer of computer and console games.
 Their first title was the medieval fantasy "Might and Magic: Secret of the Inner Sanctum"—one of the first role-playing games to feature detailed drawings of both indoor and outdoor locations.  It debuted in 1986 for the Apple II. The series went on to include nine bestselling games, all of which Van Caneghem co-created. In 1990 Van Caneghem released "King's Bounty", the forerunner of the "Heroes of Might and Magic" series of seven games which feature turn-based, fantasy-themed conflicts in which players control armies of mythical creatures.
 In the following 20 years as president and CEO of New World Computing, Van Caneghem oversaw the publishing of more than 250 titles worldwide.
 Van Caneghem sold New World Computing to developer and publisher 3DO in 1996 for US$13 million.  He remained with 3DO as president and "lead visionary" until 2003 when 3DO filed for bankruptcy and eliminated its New World Computing division.

#### Lipsey breaks through; Lomong breaks records at the 2018 Sir Walter Miler

August 3, 2018 – Raleigh, North Carolina

– For the second year in a row, the Sir Walter Miler Women's race was decided by a sprint down the home stretch.

The race started out with Sara Vaughn going to the front quickly.

Over the first lap, she tucked in as the sole woman to go with the pacer (Jamie Morrissey).

Over the next two laps, the rest of the field caught up to the leading pair, paving the way for Charlene Lipsey to make a move down the final straightaway, for not only the win, but her first time under 4:30.

"I honestly wasn't sure if I'd broken 4:30 when I finished.

I don't think I would have done it if the crowd wasn't screaming so loud," commented Lipsey following her breakthrough.

Lipsey made clear that she would love to come back to Sir Walter and the electricity supplied by the fans on the track is a big reason for that.

Following Lipsey's 4:27.28, in 4:27.31 was Sara Vaughn, also breaking 4:30 for the first time, who nearly stole a win with a lean at the tape.

Cory McGee took third for the Women, following closely in 4:27.78.

The Men's race was destined for records, and Charlie Marquardt's yell summed it up.

The Men wanted the pacer to take them through fast splits, and that Jesse Garn did.

The result was a record thirteen American men under the 4-minute barrier, highlighted by Lopez Lomong's meet record 3:53.86.

Lomong was followed by Johnny Gregorek and Sam Prakel, debuting his Adidas kit, in 3:54.54 and 3:54.64, respectively.

"I held good position and was able to take advantage of it," says Lomong, who also noted how near he came to the North Carolina State Record (he missed it by 0.03), and his hopes to be able to break that record himself.

"Next time," said the newly minted Sir Walter Miler Champion.

Breaking four for the first time ever, and by wide margins, were Charlie Marquardt and Jacob Thomson.

The pair threw down times of 3:55.97 and 3:57.07 respectively, becoming the 10th and 11th first time sub-4 milers in Sir Walter Miler history.

Sir Walter Miler has now 39 sub-4 minute miles since its founding five years ago, after none in Raleigh since 1974.

The night started with the Run Club Miler and 4x400m Relays.

First up in the mile, Matt Staehle, took the overall win, and Kristin Andrews took the Women's win in 4:27.70 and 4:48.92, respectively.

In the Run Club 4x400m relay, the Bond Brothers Run Club team combined to break four, on their way to a win in 3:59.45.

They were followed by Trophy Run Club and Carolina Godiva Track Club to round out the podium.

The event also featured Pre and Postrun race parties hosted within walking distance of the track at Raleigh Brewing Company.

The parties featured beers by Wicked Weed Brewing (Run for El Dorado Pale Ale), Hopfly Brewing Co. (Beach Beach), and Raleigh Brewing (Sir Sandman Kolsch) which were brewed exclusive, runner-friendly beers to raise money for the Kay Yow Cancer Fund.

Bo's Kitchen, Arepa Culture, and the Webby's Shaved Ice food trucks will be in the Raleigh Brewing parking lot as well.

On Saturday Morning, the "Rise and Run with the Pros" at Umstead Park will allow anyone to run a few miles with the Elite Athletes featured in the Sir Walter Miler.

The event is free and Rise Cameron Village will be providing complimentary Coffee, Biscuits, and Donuts, and ElliptiGO will be offering demo rides.

Rounding out the weekend is the "Sir Walter Extra Miler" Saturday afternoon at

This event will feature the "Run for El Dorado" Pale Ale, as well as other Wicked Weed offerings, and $1 per pint sold will go towards the Kay Yow Cancer Fund.

(meta data) TITLE: Balancing act for Axle Whitehead – TV Tonight

12 commentsFiled under: News, Top Stories,

For Axle Whitehead one of the more bizarre contrasts of filming The Wall in Poland was during his downtime.

One day he was giving away thousands of cash filming Seven's new shiny floor game show.

The next he was visiting Auschwitz concentration camp near Krakow.

"It was a life-changing experience," he tells TV Tonight.

And just to see what humans can do to each other…. the men had 9-5 jobs with their wives at home and went to the concentration camp to do their 10 hour shift and went back home.

"I don't know a lot about war history, so I just found that fascinating."

When he wasn't delving into history, Whitehead was getting up to speed on Seven's new show, the first show he has hosted in a decade, and the first in the game show genre.

Since he wrapped on Home & Away in 2012, Whitehead has been largely based in the US, scoring a recurring role on both Shameless and Marvel's Agents of SHIELD.

Returning home for Seven he is the smiling host of mega-show The Wall, in which contestants compete for millions of dollars (as much as $12m is on offer).

But with its 4-storey wall resembling a giant arcade game, production took place on one of 3 existing sets (US and France are the other 2).

"It was probably cheaper to fly everyone over there," he admits when I ask why Seven didn't construct an Australian set.

"When we got there Russia was shooting their first season.

So we watched a bit of that, which was weird.

And after that was Romania, Hungary and I think Czech Republic.

When I used to host Video Hits for Channel TEN a few years ago, I was kind of involved in the production side because it was such a small team."

Describing the production period as "land, rehearse, shoot, get out," Whitehead familiarised himself with the format playing the game with a DVD in his hotel, prior to set rehearsals.

In addition to a largely Polish crew and interpreters, the crowd comprised English speaking audience & ex-pats.

"So it was an interesting language barrier," he muses.

"The contestants ….. are not 'game-show whores.'"

The US format show has screened in 15 countries, with the US version hosted by Chris Hardwick.

In its first episode, a whopping $240,000 was given away to 2 Queensland parents.

"The show is about giving good opportunities to good people.

So the contestants are people who do things for the community, maybe face adversity or family struggles, and people who are not 'game-show whores.'

In addition to its trivia, luck and risk, couples can wager their winnings, sight unseen for much more.

Whitehead's elaborate explanation of the gameplay was accompanied with an assurance that things are much easier to view than to explain.

"At the end of round 3 the person behind the wall has to make a decision whether to sign a contract for the guaranteed amount that they have at the end of round 1 or they can tear it up for what is potentially left on the wall at the end of round 3.

But they have no idea what that amount is."

He also took the view that the show doesn't trade on exploiting the 'worthiness' of 'bleeding-heart contestants.

"The second episode is 2 cops, where 1 is a detective and the other was the first female to be accepted into the bomb squad.

So they don't necessarily have any adversity, they just do a lot for the community," he assured.

Finally, with $12m on offer each game, how confident is he of not sending the network bankrupt?

Just how fair and balanced is the gameplay?

"I asked all of these questions," he insists.

Obviously with the trivia that has to be locked away and verified and that's very strict.

"But the balls, there is literally no way of controlling them.

They weigh 1.5kilos in a bowling ball-shape.

Having some of the Channel Seven guys there recording they were (very nervous).

"I was watching the balls behave wondering if there was any way to rig them?

But I've held them, put them in the chute, seen them drop time and time again, but there is no way.

The Wall returns 7:30pm tonight and continues Sunday & Monday on Seven.

Don't know how much the (admittedly sweet) couple won, don't care.

I started halfway through Ep 2 – it took a while to understand, and still a bit confusing – but it is interesting to see the psychology of the partner choosing to sign a contract for their winnings if they choose, but not knowing until the end.

Log in to Reply Secret Squïrrel October 31, 2017 11:51 am

No point checking the balls to see if the game is somehow rigged.

It'd be much easier to control the positioning and shape of the pegs to influence the probability of which way a ball will fall.

Log in to Reply David Knox October 31, 2017 11:55 am

They did land in both $1M and $1 so it seems feasible.

Probably take physicist to prove otherwise.

Log in to Reply Secret Squïrrel October 31, 2017 12:16 pm

Yeah, wasn't suggesting that the probabilities have been tweaked, merely pointing out that Axle was looking in the wrong place if they have.

Log in to Reply reece86 November 2, 2017 8:16 pm

I was thinking maybe compressed air in both sides of the wall pushing the balls left or right? lol

I suspect Monday's ep. was not E1 but specially chosen from what they have recorded.

I watched it but l can honestly say l was not glued to my chair.

I would think the questions will get harder to answer as they could not give away that amount of cash each show.

He did graduate work at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, where he received his M.A. in 1931 and his Ph.D. in 1934 under the direction of Robert Carmichael. He studied under a National Research Council postdoctoral fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton from 1934 to 1936. In 1936 Martin became an instructor at MIT and in 1938 a faculty member there. He collaborated with several fellow MIT faculty members, notably Norbert Wiener, R. H. Cameron, Stefan Bergman, and Salomon Bochner. During the 1940s Martin and R. H. Cameron wrote a series of papers extending Norbert Wiener's early work on mathematical models of Brownian motion. During the 1950s W. T. Martin wrote with Salomon Bochner a series of papers that proved basic results in the theory of several complex variables.
 Martin was the department head for the MIT mathematics department from 1947 to 1968. During this time he oversaw the hiring of 24 faculty members in the mathematics department. He initiated MIT's C. L. E. Moore Instructorship Program in 1949. He spent his entire career at MIT, except for the years from 1943 to 1946, when he left MIT to become the head of the mathematics department of Syracuse University and, in the academic year 1951–1952, when he was on sabbatical at the Institute for Advanced Study.

Vijay Hazare: an Indian batting legend © PA Photos

One of India's greatest batsmen is born.

Because of the Second World War, Vijay Hazare didn't play his first Test until he was 31, at Lord's in 1946.

After a difficult start he announced himself with two centuries in the fourth Test in Adelaide in 1947-48, and a year later started a run of three centuries in consecutive innings against England - but because of India's spartan fixture list, the third didn't come until December 1951.

India won only three of Hazare's 30 Tests: for him to average 47 under such circumstances shows just how good he was.

He could look a little ungainly but had all the shots, and his first-class average was 58.

That included an astonishing performance for The Rest against Hindus in 1943-44, where he made 309 not out in a total of only 387.

Oh, and he took 60% of the wickets to fall (admittedly there were only five).

All this, and his side lost by an innings.

The birth of a man who didn't take up cricket seriously until he was 22 but who made an immediate impression.

Within a year Andrew Stoddart scored a world record 485 in 370 minutes for Hampstead against Stoics, all after spending the entire night before the game playing poker.

The epitome of the late amateur Victorian sporting hero, he played rugby ten times for England, and 16 cricket Tests, leading England to Australia twice.

But as he aged, his health deteriorated, and faced with his declining powers and burdened by financial worries, he shot himself three weeks after his 52nd birthday.

After a fairly slow start to the World Cup, Brian Lara was back to his brilliant best in West Indies' surprise quarter-final victory over South Africa.

Lara flashed 111 off just 94 balls, and South Africa - who left out Allan Donald for Paul Adams - surrendered to spin, losing eight wickets to Roger Harper, Jimmy Adams and Keith Arthurton, and went down by 19 runs.

It ended their run of ten wins in a row and West Indies, who 12 days earlier had lost to Kenya, were in the semi-finals, where they would meet ...

... Australia, who on the same day finished off New Zealand in a Madras cracker.

New Zealand plundered 286 for 9, with Chris Harris belting 130 and Lee Germon 89.

In reply Australia were stuttering a bit at 84 for 2 after 20 overs when Shane Warne clubbed a 14-ball 24.

That gave them crucial momentum, the Waugh brothers added a quick-fire 86, and after Mark departed for a sublime 110 - his third century of the tournament, a record - Steve and Stuart Law did the rest in sedate style.

Jackie McGlew's stickability was such that the second syllable of his surname kept journalists in puns for years.

But there was a reason for that: he played some fearsome defensive innings, and if ever a man could make Chris Tavaré look like Shahid Afridi, it was McGlew.

He batted almost ten hours for 105 against Australia in Durban in 1957-58; at the time it was the slowest hundred in first-class history.

Having said that, you don't get a Test average of 42 with just guts and a forward-defensive, and McGlew also captained his country in 14 Tests between 1955 and 1961-62.

As well as that, he was a brilliant fielder, as vibrant and zesty in the covers as he was stoic at the crease.

He died of a blood disorder in Pretoria in 1998.

In his 12th Test, Jack Hobbs smacked South Africa for 187 in Cape Town, before he was out hit-wicket for the only time in his career.

England hammered the South Africans by nine wickets, and there was agony for Aubrey Faulkner, the allrounder, who became the first South African to be dismissed for 99 in a Test.

As the scramble for World Cup semi-final places started to heat up, Australia were pushed to the brink of elimination when they lost by 48 runs to Pakistan in Perth.

The Aussies had been cruising - 116 for 2, chasing 221 - but Mushtaq Ahmed sliced through the middle order, and despite a batting line-up that had Steve Waugh at No. 7, blind panic set in.

It was the start of a run that would take Pakistan all the way to a glorious victory in the final.

Hasan Raza, born this day, made his Test debut at the tender age of 14 years and 227 days when he played against Zimbabwe in Faisalabad in 1996-97 - though plenty of doubt has since been expressed as to the validity of that age - and he made a sound 27 in a low-scoring game.

That was it for two years, though, and his career was stop-start ever since.

Birth of mystery spinner Ajantha Mendis.

Mendis and his finger-flicked legbreaks and "carrom ball" became a sensation when he dismantled India's famed middle order and took eight on debut and 26 in the three-Test series in 2008.

Many hoped he would be Muttiah Muralitharan's successor but by the time Murali retired in 2011, Mendis wasn't even the first-choice spinner for the team.

His variations had been found out, and he struggled to hold his place in the side, though he figures in the limited-overs teams for a while longer.

All 11 Australians got a bowl, including Rod Marsh, who whipped off his pads for the first ten overs of his Test career, as the second Test in Faisalabad drifted to sleep today.

A rain-affected game produced 999 runs for the loss of only 12 wickets, including double-centuries for Greg Chappell and Pakistan's Taslim Arif, whose 210 not out was the highest Test score by a wicketkeeper until Andy Flower topped it in India in 2000-01.

The highest-scoring match in first-class history.

There were 2376 runs scored for the loss of 38 wickets in the Ranji Trophy semi-final between Bombay and Maharashtra in Poona.

In all, there were 19 centuries: nine from the batsmen, ten for the hapless bowlers.

In context, Maharashtra's Bhausaheb Babasaheb Nimbalkar - who has a top first-class score of 443 not out - had a nightmare: he made 25 and 21.

Kennedy Otieno, born today, was instrumental in Kenya's run to the 2003 World Cup semi-finals.

He featured in every game, scoring 60 in the win against Sri Lanka and blasting 79 against India in a Super Six defeat.

In 2006-07 he signed a contract to play club cricket in Australia and missed out on making the squad for the 2007 World Cup.

His brothers, David and Collins Obuya, also play for Kenya.

Dirk Viljoen, a left-hand middle-order batsman and slow left-armer, born today, was picked for the Zimbabwe squad shortly after his 20th birthday, and he soon came to be regarded by the selectors as a one-day specialist.

But his batting increasingly disappointed and his bowling became expensive and he was dropped at the end of the 2001-02 series against England.

PHX recommends you to be there 2 hours early to get through security and to your plane.

Boarding usually starts 30 minutes before your plane takes off.

We pick you up at your home anytime 24/7.

We also don't pack you in with 8-15 people you don't know and stop everywhere.

The signs are easy to see and they are always at the outer curb.

Sometimes security will send people to the wrong place, so it's better to follow the directions below.

PHX also won't allow drivers to walk more than 15 feet away from their vehicle or wait, so good communication is essential.

Turn on your cell phone and take it off of airplane mode, so your driver can call or text you.

We customize our shuttle service to your needs by offering different options like shuttles, black car services, and taxi.

We offer many types of vehicles, and different options to make your experience great.

We can help with travel planning and there are no service fees.

Does it make sense to take an Uber or Lyft?

Uber and Lyft drivers often cancel once they arrive at your house in Show Low, because the app doesn't tell them where they are going until they arrive at your home.

Usually they don't want to drive that far and not get paid for two hours to drive back, or they are unavailable to work for that long.

This may result in you missing your flight after 2-3 of them cancel in a row, and they charge you $5 each time for the cancellation.

You then try to contact Uber or Lyft over the next week to get a refund, and they don't even have a phone number.

Another thing to consider is that Uber and Lyft drivers are never interviewed, so you may get a depressed guy complaining about his life, a tiny car with no leg room or a creeper.

Uber and Lyft also do not train their drivers and Sky Harbor is moderately confusing to most people, so they usually have no idea where to go.

How reliable is the Greyhound bus or an Arizona shuttle with a lot of people?

Other shuttle companies that do shared rides will try to pick you up an hour or two earlier, but they make no promises about when you will actually get to PHX.

If you're on a tight schedule, the shared ride option with Arizona shuttle or the Greyhound is probably not a good idea.

Extra stops and scheduling with other passengers can either make you too early or potentially late.

Even with great drivers, passengers can be unpredictable and end up making everyone miss their flight.

Attaining last-minute Show Low flights or transportation options from Phoenix to Show Low, AZ can be a little challenging.

We extend an affordable premium Show Low shuttle or Tucson to Show Low shuttle.

No need to look up Show Low AZ bus schedule because you pick the time and our drivers will be there.

Why deal with multiple stops like white mountain shuttle or trying to find white mountain shuttle schedule easily book your Pinetop shuttle Today.

Later, in September 2016, Rob Riggle began appearing as a new Colonel Sanders, the coach of the fictitious "Kentucky Buckets" football team, again with no transition.

# Watch Rob Riggle as KFC's newest Colonel Sanders | The Kansas City Star

### Watch Rob Riggle as KFC's newest Colonel Sanders

Rob Riggle is Colonel Sanders in KFC's newest set of ads promoting the fictional football team "The Buckets" and the franchise's $20 Fill Ups.

It's not his hometown barbecue, but it's "finger-lickin' good," according to Rob Riggle.

The actor, originally from Overland Park, is featured in a new set of advertisements for Kentucky Fried Chicken as the white-goateed chicken lover himself: Colonel Sanders.

He's the fifth actor to play the colonel since KFC started its new ad campaign, this time "launching" KFC's first professional football team, The Buckets.

In one of the videos, Riggle (as the Colonel) introduces the new team, saying it's not "just a marketing gimmick to get delicious chicken in front of football fans."

A dead-eyed quarterback (played by Topeka native J.B. Bauersfeld, former sportcaster for WIBW-TV) confirms the statement with a monotone "Yes, we are a real team."

Four videos feature Riggle as the Colonel, promoting the KFC $20 Fill Ups.

The company has been trotting out new Colonels in the past year and half: former Colonels include actors George Hamilton, Jim Gaffigan, Darrell Hammond and Norm MacDonald.

Of course, in Kansas City, we know Riggle for his work with Big Slick Celebrity Weekend, a fundraiser for the Cancer Center at Children's Mercy Hospital.

 From May 1998, an animated version of the Colonel, "boisterously" voiced by Randy Quaid, was used for television advertisements. KFC chief concept officer Jeff Moody said they "provide a fresh way to communicate our relevance for today's consumers". The animated Colonel was dropped in 2001 in the US, and in 2002 in the UK. In 2012, a UK advertisement entitled "4000 cooks" featured an actor made up to resemble Sanders.
 Beginning in May 2015, Darrell Hammond began playing a live-action Colonel Sanders in KFC commercials. Three months later, KFC launched a new campaign with comedian Norm Macdonald portraying Sanders; the first ad of the campaign makes direct reference to the Hammond campaign, with a brief piece of footage of Hammond followed by Macdonald's Colonel declaring his predecessor an impostor. Jim Gaffigan then began playing Sanders in February 2016, with his first ads stating that Macdonald's Colonel was another impostor. George Hamilton began appearing as "The Extra Crispy Colonel" in July 2016, with no transition referencing Gaffigan's Colonel.

The Celtic Revival of the mid-19th century led to an increased use and creation of Celtic crosses in Ireland. In 1853, casts of several historical high crosses were exhibited at the Dublin Industrial Exhibition. In 1857, Henry O'Neill published "Illustrations of the Most Interesting of the Sculptured Crosses of Ancient Ireland". These two events stimulated interest in the Celtic cross as a symbol for a renewed sense of heritage within Ireland.
 New versions of the high cross were designed for fashionable cemetery monuments in Victorian Dublin in the 1860s. From Dublin, the revival spread to the rest of the country and beyond.

Images were required to be censored as part of a group exhibition at The Sydney Fringe.

(meta data) TITLE: Vagina censorship offensive | Altmedia

(meta data) PUBLISHED DATETIME: 2013-09-19

Posted September 19, 2013 by admin & filed under City Hub.

A photographic exhibition of women's vulvae at the Sydney Fringe's Fringe Arts Forum was last week forced to censor its work over concerns it could offend the public.

The 101 Vagina Book Exhibition – aiming to break taboos around body image and challenge the belief there are ideals women should conform to – was told to cover parts of its images if it wanted to continue exhibiting at the Italian Forum.

"The gallery management said they wanted the venue to be family friendly," said author of 101 Vagina, Philip Werner.

"I think that's a whole other discussion whether or not it's an issue for children to see images of the naked body, which are obviously not pornographic.

"Several parents came in with their children to the exhibition in Redfern – one woman said how happy she was to bring her three-year-old daughter along so that she can start to get a positive message about her body."

Last month, University of Sydney newspaper Honi Soit published a front cover featuring 18 vulvae in efforts to emphasise the female body in a manner not usually seen in the press and display to students what a vulva looks like before digital alteration.

However, hundreds of copies were eventually trashed over fears it would breach Section 578C of the NSW Crimes Act.

Honi Soit Editor Mariana Podesta-Diverio said: "We were driven by the fact that we wanted to present the female body in a way outside of the dichotomy in which it can't exist, which is either hyper sexualised in pornography or otherwise stigmatised somehow."

The issue of vagina censorship has been debated for a number of years following claims that un-sexualised images of women's genitalia must be censored while a man's can be shown unedited under the 'Unrestricted' classification of the National Classification Code.

Under the Unrestricted classification, a publication needs to ensure that "realistic depictions of sexualised nudity should not be high in impact" and that "realistic depictions may contain discreet genital detail but there should be no genital emphasis".

"When there is nudity in magazines, they can't show any protruding labia because somehow that's considered to be more pornographic or explicit than when it's not shown," said Mr Werner.

"So they're editing all these normal vaginas – now there is an image out there that 'innies' are more common and more beautiful and more normal – even though that is not true," he said.

A magazine or newspaper seeking to publish an unedited vulva must first obtain classification from the Australian Classification Board (ACB) at a starting cost of around $400.

If the board deems an image unsuitable for Unrestricted classification, it may be classified 'Category 1 Restricted' or 'Category 2 Restricted', which would make it unsuitable for minors and require it to be distributed in a sealed wrapper.

The ACB highlighted the fact that it does not request publishers to edit their images.

Ms Lesley O'Brien, Director of the Classification Board said: "The board classifies the material that is submitted to it – it does not request edits, changes or modifications, or direct a publisher to alter images.

It is up to a publisher to determine if they wish to digitally alter any images."

It has been argued that the issue of vagina censorship has been heightened in recent years due to the fact that more women are choosing to shave.

"The shaving of pubic hair has become so common," said Mr Werner.

"In the past you couldn't really see much – you wouldn't really see whether the labia was protruding or not.

Whereas nowadays, because everyone's shaving, the genitalia are much more exposed."

Ms Podesta-Diverio highlighted the connection between edited hairless vulvae and increases in concerns over body image.

"I think there's a direct correlation between the presentation of hairless vulva and labia in pornography and people thinking that their vulvas aren't normal," she said.

Against Thomas Holmes's name in Bute's list of December 1761 appears the note:

Opponent to Sir Robert Walpole, afterwards attached to him on condition that he should have the Government interest to make the boroughs of the Isle of Wight.

On the same condition swore fealty to Pelham, at his death on the same condition to Newcastle.

And this is how he was 'making' two of the boroughs:1

Lord Holmes ever since he had the management of affairs in that corner of the kingdom has followed the same sure policy at Newport which secured him Yarmouth.

Upon every vacancy of a burgess he filled his place with a relation of his own; at this time his relations make a very considerable body in the corporation, and if he continues this practice two or three years longer (as there are several very old burgesses) he will have such a determined majority in his own family, that he may return such Members as are agreeable to himself only.

Hans Stanley, who succeeded Holmes as governor of the island, in a letter of 24 Aug. 1764,2 incidentally remarks that Holmes 'was secured by very lucrative contracts in the brewing business at the docks'.

On 14 Mar. 1754 Ralph Jenison, who served as intermediary between Holmes and the Government whenever Holmes was out of London, gave Newcastle a list of candidates for the Isle of Wight boroughs 'settled by Mr. Pelham'.3

And on 23 May 1756 Holmes wrote to Newcastle:4

As the care and expense of the three boroughs in the Isle of Wight rests entirely on me, the governor never expending one shilling or ever going there, and no place in the Ordnance or castles giving any aid as usual, I flatter myself your Grace will not think it unreasonable to allow me £200 yearly for each borough amounting in the whole to £600, and as I have been for some years at a great expense, hope at least one year's income may be paid directly.

His request was granted without any of the usual delays, and on 21 July 1756 the first payment of £600 was made to Jenison for Holmes from secret service funds.

When Jenison died, 15 May 1758, Holmes asked the Duke to have some one pay the money into his account at Hoare's bank, 'and send me their receipt as he used to do ...

I don't choose my brothers [both M.P.s] or any other person should be acquainted with the affair'.5

In the same letter: 'I can assure your Grace that I can choose here [Newport] any two persons I please and shall take care they shall always be in your interest.'

Holmes's next application, 9 May 1760, was for an Irish peerage—not 'from any desire of self emolument, of grandeur', but to 'enable me ... to secure an interest in the country so much entrusted to my management alone'.6

And in a further letter to Newcastle on 23 May 1760:7

Were I to communicate to your Grace the estates I have in England, Ireland, and Wales, besides money in the stocks and other securities, you would see my fortune is equal to those honours; the annual thing I asked as I have no employment was only to repay me the money I am out of pocket in the several services we support.

I never meant it should tie me down from receiving some honourable mark of distinction for having brought a factious part of the country over to his Majesty's interest.

Every one knows I have a greater weight in the Island of Wight than any governor or any other person ever had; my gratitude for the favours my brothers have received from you and your family will oblige me to secure the boroughs for your interest, but shall not choose to concern myself in any other affairs unless what I have requested is granted, for I think the person that is first in interest and fortune ought not to be the lowest in rank and quality.

On 19 July 1760 Newcastle was able to inform Holmes that his request had been granted.

'Being confined most part of the winter by illness and having frequent returns', Holmes had written to Newcastle, 5 June 1759, 'made me afraid of crossing the water to attend Parliament'; should his illness continue, he was prepared to give up his seat to a friend of the Duke.8

I sincerely wish my friends would consent for me to vacate my seat, for I know I shall never be able to attend any more.'

The question of Holmes's allegiance was brought up soon after Newcastle's resignation by the death on 11 Aug. 1762 of his brother Henry, lieutenant-governor of the Isle of Wight and M.P. for Yarmouth.

Shelburne wrote to Bute in an undated letter, docketed 'August 1762':10

Lord Holmes ... is but a poor creature—but his boroughs and his being direct, where he professes himself attached, makes him considerable ...

Government and he ... joining bring in every Member but one in the Isle of Wight.

I have taken the properest method with regard to him, only your Lordship will take care, the government [lieutenant-governorship] is not given to his nephew [Lt.-Col. Troughear] till you hear further of it.

On 15 Sept. Shelburne reminded Bute of Holmes—''tis well if a thing is resolved on, to do it soon, which ... doubles the obligation'.

On 17 Oct. Newcastle asked Harcourt Powell if he had heard what Holmes intended at Yarmouth: he himself in his present situation did not think it proper to apply to Holmes—'it would certainly have no effect'.

But possibly Holmes 'may bring in a good man himself; and that would be the best of all'.11

Lord Portsmouth, governor of the Isle of Wight, died 22 Nov. 1762, and on the 24th Fox wrote to Bute to 'advise strongly' against the office being given to the Duke of Bolton:12

His uncle destroyed the interest of the Crown in that county; he would do the same.

I have likewise advice to give, which if approved would tend to present and future security, and very extensively.

Three boroughs depend chiefly on Lord Holmes, he will not keep it long, he is so infirm, he will bring in Mr. Dyson instantly [for Yarmouth] and I have several other things to say in his behalf.

On 30 Nov.: 'I could not succeed with Lord Holmes without saying more than I was authorized to say.

But there cannot fail of an opportunity for Mr. Dyson very soon.'

On 18 Dec.: 'Lord Holmes will choose Mr. Dyson.'

Early in December Fox had included Holmes in the list of Members favourable to the peace preliminaries.

On 6 Apr. 1763 Holmes kissed hands as governor of the Isle of Wight.

'I will answer for him', Fox had written to Bute on 27 Mar.13

He continued Government manager for the Isle under Grenville; but there is no record of his having received any payments from secret service funds toward the management after Newcastle had left the Treasury.

Holmes was absent from the divisions on general warrants in February 1764 owing to ill-health.

But Grenville wrote to him on 12 Apr.:14

No one is more sensible than myself of your steady zeal for the public service and of your particular attention to me in the very obliging offer which your Lordship makes of supplying your seat in Parliament.

This proposition will I flatter myself be rendered wholly unnecessary by the recovery of your health.

He died on 21 July 1764, and was succeeded in his estates and his parliamentary interest by his nephew, the Rev. Leonard Troughear, who assumed the name of Holmes.

1. John White to Sir Harry Erskine, 1 Feb. 1763, Jenkinson Pprs. 128.

He was returned unopposed for Newtown at the 1734 British general election. He voted against the Administration on the Spanish convention in 1739 and was absent from the division on the place bill in 1740. In 1738, on the death of his father, he succeeded to his estates and political interests on the Isle of Wight. He did not stand at the 1741 British general election but returned his brother General Henry Holmes for Newtown instead.
 Holmes then made an agreement with Sir Robert Walpole to support the Government on condition he should become the Government's manager for Newtown, Newport and Yarmouth, the three Isle of Wight boroughs. After the fall of Walpole in 1742, he renewed the agreement with Pelham. It was accepted that he should have first use of the seats for himself and his family and at the 1747 general election, he was returned unopposed  with his brother Henry, for Yarmouth. He did not have as much power as many borough-owners who could directly return MPs, but he exercised his influence in favour of government candidates. He was returned again as MP for Yarmouth in 1754 and 1761.

# Natural Selection 2 developer Unknown Worlds announces ocean-based Subnautica

developer Unknown Worlds Entertainment, has us looking below the surface.

With an open-world ocean as its metaphorical sandbox, Subnautica sounds like an exploration experience that might not fit comfortably into some of the neat little categories we use so often when talking about games.

the prototype as a game that will blend the genres of role-playing and exploration

and the project's initial art has a futuristic and high-tech look, even if it's not clear yet what specific oceanic setting it's set in.

But at least from images like the one above, it's likely to be one we haven't seen before.

And while the blended-genre approach that is so evident in the RTS/FPS mechanics of Natural Selection 2 is a familiar challenge to the developer, Subnautica also represents a move in a completely new direction for the studio, according to Unknown Worlds public relations lead Hugh Jeremy.

"We just don't know what Subnautica is yet," Jeremy tells PC Gamer.

"We can't point to a specific genre, we can't point to action RPG, MMO RPG, MMO FPS, a simulation game.

We can't point to any of those and say 'Thats Subnautica right there, that's the genre.'

And it's not going to be apparent for a very long time what Subnautica actually is.

Maybe it will fit into an existing genre, but that's certainly not for us to say and it's certainly not for us to say that it will create a new genre."

The game currently deals with designing, building, and crewing up submarines, a core component of which involves their navigation from a cockpit, according to Jeremy.

He also points to prototype concepts that see some of these features carried out in a first-person perspective.

Although we know there'll be a focus in the game on diverse underwater environments and their physical effects on navigation, it also remains to be seen how this will be reflected in sub construction and design.

This is an aspect that really intrigues me in its unfamiliarity.

Who spends so much time thinking about submarine design?

Oceans, in terms of the mystery and danger that they represent, are for me

That's one of many reasons Subnautica is something I'll be keeping an eye on as it moves through development and more information surfaces.

For a look at some of the concept art being created for the game, check out the studio's reveal video below.

# Subnautica: Early impressions of Minecraft under the sea

I've crashlanded in an alien ocean, the sole survivor of a terraforming mission.

My life pod floats, luckily, and comes equipped with a high-tech 3D printer and a storage locker.

For me to survive, I've got to pillage the bounties of the ocean floor while trying not to starve to death or get eaten myself.

I could dance around a bit, but it's underwater Minecraft.

Reductivity is frequently not a virtue, and describing one game in terms of a recent mega-success always feels a little icky.

Like when every startup company describes themselves as "Uber for [other thing]."

Even so, Subnautica, developed by Natural Selection 2 devs Unknown Worlds, features crafting, digging, monsters, hunger and thirst, exploration, procedurally generated vistas, and dangerous creatures that come out at night.

Minecraft's oceans were always a little sparse, populated by doofy octopi and sand.

As massive and uncharted as real oceans are, they deserve the attentions of an entire game.

Subnautica is on its way to being a lovely sandbox of underwater exploration.

In its current state, Subnautica features two modes: survival and freedom.

They are basically the same, but the freedom mode removes the game's hunger and thirst mechanics, and doesn't empty your inventory when you die.

I found that, as in Minecraft, once I no longer struggled to survive, I quickly lost interest in the game.

Subnautica is a game that begs to be explored, so I appreciate the option to simply turn off the survival mechanics.

In survival mode, a lot is riding on a successful first day.

From the moment I wake up in Subnautica, I have a few minutes before I starve to death, and few more before I die of thirst.

The immediate business of the day is outfitting myself with salt, freshly caught alien fish, and some gear.

All of the crafting in Subnautica takes place on a 3D printer inside my floating lifepod base, and the progression of raw materials to finished gear is immediately familiar: Organic matter gets printed into raw carbon.

Carbon and zinc get printed into a basic battery.

A battery and some glass become a flashlight, and now I can see what's going on at night.

It's predictable, sure, but it's still incredibly satisfying.

Building a self-propelled, armored, deep-sea capable submarine feels so good because I put it together, piece by piece, while swimming in a sea of predators.

Though it is fun already, Subnautica does suffer from some technical problems.

Terrain has a habit of popping in, especially when I got my souped-up submarine to full speed.

On one occasion, I drove straight off the edge of the world because the next cluster failed to load.

This locked up the game and, because saving and loading isn't implemented yet, I had to start a new game without that badass sub.

In addition to subs, Subnautica has a few interesting toys to play with.

Flashlights and seascooters and location beacons are all available to help navigate the alien waters.

My favorite gadget is the gravsphere, a plantable trap that captures fish.

Deploy it, go hunting for scrap metal and minerals, then come back to a fresh fish dinner.

It's that kind of high-tech creativity that draws me away from Minecraft comparisons and makes me hopeful that Subnautica will bring new ideas to the survival sandbox genre.

Surviving can be a struggle in the early days, but a little luck meant I had extra supplies after a half hour.

Once a surplus was safe, that was my cue to start pushing myself, diving deeper, swimming farther from the safety of my lifepod.

Discrete biomes like mushroom forests, coral reefs, and cave complexes feature local resources and creatures, and they're all amazing to look at.

The designs and art of the alien sea creatures also deserve some praise.

I found exploration to be a simple joy, but pulling a double-take when I spot a new animal is more rewarding than locating a new type of terrain.

There are fish shaped like boomerangs, trout with one giant eye, razor-toothed predators, and blowfish that explode.

My favorite part is that I never know which animals are dangerous.

I'll spot a giant, slow-moving whale and watch it, circling, trying to suss out if it's the type to swallow me whole or ignore me completely.

The feeling of being an alien interloper, that I am swimming on a world that is not my own, is complete and unlike anything else in the genre.

Eventually, though, my well-stocked inventory started sapping the tension from the situation.

Without a clock ticking down to a starvation death, I began having much less fun.

My hope is that an end-game goal—be rescued, find land, build an underwater city and proclaim myself king, etc.—will add direction to the parts of the game that follow immediately after "don't starve to death."

Another limitation of the current build is that you're effectively tethered to the life pod.

You can take your sub miles and miles in any direction, but if you want to cook food ever again, you're going to have to turn around and drive back to the fabricator.

I'm hopeful that the devs' plans for larger submarines will include one with an on-board fabricator to really set you free.

Unknown Worlds also has plans for more animals, more crafting recipes, deeper biomes (accessible only with deep-diving subs), and more raw materials.

The team is taking the idea of open development seriously, managing its to-do list on a public task board.

Players can scroll through and see that the missing inventory icon for the Hoopfish is already fixed, and will be updated in the new build scheduled for January 15.

With an experienced developer at the helm and a limitless variety of the oceans to play with, it's going to take a lot for Subnautica to go badly wrong.

As the toolbox gets deeper and the shape of the end-game gets set, Subnautica will be a unique example of the ways survival can be tense, rewarding, and fun.

18-year-old Miami student, Chad Meredith, passed away on the evening of November 4, 2001 while attempting to swim across the lake while intoxicated, accompanied by two of his fraternity brothers.

(meta data) AUTHOR: Florida State University

# Florida's Law on Hazing: The Chad Meredith Act

Florida's Law on Hazing: The Chad Meredith Act (HB 193)

Hazing policy as stated in the Student Coduct Code

Hazing is the subjection of another to extreme physical or mental harassment, usually associated with into a social organization.

Under current law, hazing by a college student may subject that student to university or college discipline.

Hazing incidents may lead to criminal prosecution under general criminal but there are impediments that make such prosecutions difficult.

This bill creates new criminal offenses specific to hazing at the high school or college level.

This bill provides that it is a first degree misdemeanor to commit an act of hazing that creates a substantial risk of physical injury or death.

The offense level increases to a third degree felony if the act of hazing actually results in serious bodily injury or death.

This bill also expands the definition of hazing, and provides a limited exception for certain legitimate activities.

This act is named for Chad Meredith, a student at a Florida university who died in a hazing incident.

In 2001, University of Miami student Chad Meredith returned from a concert and began drinking with two officers of Kappa Sigma, a fraternity he wished to join.

After several hours of drinking, the group tried to swim across Lake Osceola near campus.

Meredith had a blood alcohol level of 0.13.

He drowned 34 feet from shore in six feet nine inches of water.

Although, the fraternity officers protested that the incident was not a fraternity-sanctioned hazing event, a jury found otherwise, and awarded the deceased student's family a $12.6 million verdict in a negligence suit based on hazing.

### State of Florida's Definition of Hazing

"Hazing" means any action or situation that recklessly or intentionally endangers the mental or physical health or safety of a student for purposes, including, but not limited to, the purpose of initiation or admission into or affiliation with any organization operating under the sanction of a postsecondary institution.

"Hazing" includes, but is not limited to:

Pressuring or coercing the student into violating state or federal law;

any brutality of a physical nature, such as whipping, beating, branding, forced calisthenics, exposure to the elements, forced consumption of any food, liquor, drug, or other substance, or other forced physical activity that which could adversely affect the physical health or safety of the student;

Any activity that which would subject the student to extreme mental stress, such as sleep deprivation, forced exclusion from social contact, forced conduct that which could result in extreme embarrassment;

Other forced activity that which could adversely affect the mental health or dignity of the student.

Hazing does not include customary athletic events or other similar contests or competitions or any activity or conduct that furthers a legal and legitimate objective.

### In the State of Florida, Hazing is a Criminal Offense

A person commits hazing, a third degree felony, when he or she intentionally or recklessly commits any act of hazing upon another person who is a member of or an applicant to any type of student organization and the hazing results in serious bodily injury or death of such other person.

A person commits hazing, a first degree misdemeanor, when he or she intentionally or recklessly commits any act of hazing upon another person who is a member of or an applicant to any type of student organization and the hazing creates a substantial risk of physical injury or death to such other person.

It is not a defense to a charge of hazing that:

The consent of the victim had been obtained;

The conduct or activity that resulted in the death or injury of a person was not part of an official organizational event or was not otherwise sanctioned or approved by the organization; or

The conduct or activity that resulted in death or injury of the person was not done as a condition of membership to an organization.

Swimming in Lake Osceola is prohibited and punishable by expulsion by the University of Miami Office of Student Affairs in response to the death of a university student in 2001 from drowning.

# President Mugabe, wife under house arrest after military takeover of Zimbabwe

A military tank is seen with armed soldiers outside President Robert Mugabe's office in Harare, Wednesday, Nov. 15, 2017.

In an extraordinary statement after taking over the state broadcaster during a night of unrest, Zimbabwe's army said early Wednesday it was only targeting "criminals" around President Robert Mugabe, and sought to reassure the country that "this is not a military takeover."

Published November 15, 2017 at 8:13 PM Updated November 20, 2017 at 5:58 PM

For the first time in over three decades, President Robert Mugabe is not in control of Zimbabwe.

Military leaders have taken over, placing Mugabe and his wife under house arrest.

The Army claims the move is temporary and designed to deescalate political tensions.
