MINIGAMES
Minigames are small challenges you can do in Terror and/or Destruction difficulty. The reward for all of these is the same: the maximum amount of points you can put into your skills is raised by 1 for each completed minigame. This bonus is applied to the Class Charm you picked up in Kurast 3000 BA.
You need your Class Charm
This challenge requires you to have your Class Charm. This is a charm that
drops in the Kurast 3000 BA uberlevel. If you did the Ennead Challenge, you already
have one.
If not, see THIS PAGE for more information about Kurast 3000 BA.
Killing a Boss
Some of these challenges requires you to 'kill' a boss. This means that you need to be
physically present at the battle and near the boss when it dies before
you can use the cube recipe that grants you the reward.
If you succeed in killing the target monster, you get a whirling red overlay that looks like three rotating bolts:
You now have 30 seconds to perform the cube recipe.
Warning: This does not work if the monster is killed by reflected damage, due to a Diablo II engine limitation. Please use different means of killing the target.
MINIGAME 1: WITCH QUEEN
Simply slay the Countess or any of her minions on Terror difficulty to receive a red swirly overlay. Quickly cube your Class Charm with an Eth rune while the overlay is visible to receive a bonus. You have 30 seconds. Easy you say? Be afraid... the inhabitants of the deepest Tower level are a bit unusual.
This upgrade recipe adds the following bonus:
See THIS PAGE for more information about witches.
MINIGAME 2: CROWNED
Find a witch anywhere on Terror difficulty, except in the Countess tower. Witches generally appear in outdoors areas. Inch as close as you dare to a witch without waking her up... there is a chance that you will see an unmistakeable star effect just before you get close enough to get eaten by the witch.
This only works on 15% of the witches - if you see no stars, run away before the witch pounces! Cube your Class Charm with a Thul rune while the overlay is on you to receive a bonus.
NOTE: The chance for the star resets upon entering an area.
This upgrade recipe adds the following bonus:
See THIS PAGE for more information about witches.
 Each kill brings a 1% chance to gain a red swirly overlay, so you may have to let him summon a few. Cube your class charm with a Lem rune while the swirls are active to receive a bonus. You have 30 seconds before the swirls vanish.
This upgrade recipe adds the following bonus:

Beginning in the 1370s, Catherine of Siena, a middle-class Sienese girl, entered the European political scene, ranging from local politics to the papal seat of Pope Gregory XI and the crowns of Europe. Early in her life, she eschewed marriage to fully devote herself to God and to provide service to others. As a result she quickly gained a reputation for her extreme piety. At the same time, she gained political experience in government through her natal and extended family, where Catherine became comfortable dealing with local politics and creating a community. Siena during the 1360s and 1370s was rife with political uprisings. Florence was battling the papacy, and Europe was reeling from the aftermath of the Black Plague that continued to return in phases. The Fourteenth-century may have seen the start of a decline in women’s spiritual power, but the Italian world still sought out women who they believed could reveal the will of God. Many believed Catherine of Siena to be the successor to Brigitta of Sweden, known as the visionary queen and also a living saint, who died in 1373.
Catherine gained popularity and influence at a time when various historical events were all merging together to create an atmosphere for her to succeed in politics and the Church. Through a perusal of her letters, it is clear that Catherine created a network of families and individuals. Catherine was born in Siena in 1347 to a Iacomo di Benincasa and Monna Lapa. The youngest of 22 children, Catherine embraced a religious life at a relatively early age. In her early twenties, Catherine joined the Mantellate group of women. These women were tertiaries to the Dominican Order. Unlike nuns, Mantellate women were all widows, lived at home, wore the dominican habit, and were allowed to walk around the city. They had freedom to follow their desires. Catherine, at her mother’s and the Mantellate women’s permission, joined the group and fully dedicated her life to Christ.
In 1374 Raymond of Capua entered Catherine’s life as her spiritual advisor. He had had previous experience writing St. Agnes of Montepulciano’s hagiography and was in the running to become the “Master of the Order,” the main leader of the Dominican Order. Historians often describe Raymond of Capua as the reason why Catherine was so successful, as he provided her with an “in” with the local Italian populace. Raymond controlled Catherine’s image after her death in 1380 with the hagiography he wrote of her life.1 Thomas Luongo describes one of his tasks in the companion group as, “professional notaries, at some point evidently began keep a register of copies of her letters, from which other copies were made which circulated among her network of followers, to be copied again as desired by new readers.”

Anil Ambani resigns as Reliance Communications director
by Our BureauAnil Ambani has resigned as the director of Reliance Communications. The move comes even as lenders to the telecom company are looking to sell RCom assets. The company is now being managed by a resolution professional.
Ambani's resignation marks the end of his telecom ambitions. Anil had got the telecom venture as part of an agreement with his elder brother Mukesh Ambani to settle a family dispute between the two. Mukesh later started his own telecom venture, Reliance Jio, which is now one the largest telecom players in the country.
RCom had shut down its mobile operations after being unable to pay dues of over Rs 33,000 crore. Reliance Jio is one of the players interested in acquiring RCom assets through the IBC-led insolvency process.
Other directors of the company who have tendered their resignations are Chhaya Virani, Ryna Karani, Manjari Kacker and Suresh Rangachar.


Materials and Processes
The consumer-grade 3D printers you saw in the first video all printed with thermoplastic feedstock. Some industrial-grade printers print with thermoplastic as well. They're just able to do a lot more with it. Notice anything new and interesting about the traffic cone being printed by a Makerbot Replicator 2X? You got it! It's printing two colors: red and black. If you look at the top, you'll notice two lines of feedstock being used. The printer alternates between colors as needed.
This type of printing is technically called Extrusion Deposition, or more specifically Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM). An object is produced by extruding small beads of material which harden immediately to form layers.
We just jumped from a printer costing a couple thousand dollars to one that costs a couple hundred thousand. This Connex500 Polyjet printer can print with multiple types of thermoplastics. It cures the material using UV light. The platform lowers one thousandth of an inch with each pass of the printer head. It can print objects with moving parts by using two materials, a build material and a support material. The support material is removed after printing to allow integrated parts to move. Notice all of the applications for multi-material printing.
Now we move from Fused Deposition Modeling or FDM to Granular Materials Binding. Selective Laser Sintering or SLS uses a laser to sinter powdered material (typically metal), binding the material together to create a solid structure. The process involves a layer of powder distributed across the printing platform, lasers sinter the powder precisely according to the digital 3D blueprint, another layer of powder is added, more laser sintering, layer after layer is added and sintered as the printing platform is lowered incrementally until the object is finished. Once finished the block of powder material is removed and the printed object is excavated from its center.
Selective Laser Melting or SLM, is a similar process to SLS, except in this case, the powder is heated to melting. In SLS the sintering heats material without actually melting it. With SLM the material is melted by the lasers. Here SLM was used to manufacture a metal propeller. Electron Beam Melting, or EBM, gets hotter still. EBM technology manufactures parts by melting metal powder layer by layer with an electron beam in a high vacuum. Unlike sintering techniques used in SLS, parts produced by the melting techniques of EBM and SLM are fully dense, void-free, and extremely strong. Here EBM is used to create titanium mesh that's used in medical reconstructive surgery.
Our next 3D Printing process is Lamination. This technique was developed by the mCor company which uses standard copy paper. Sheets of paper are glued together a layer at a time, with each layer being precisely cut according to the digital 3D blueprint. When finished the final model is excavated from the center of the paper. This process also allows for colors to be added as an object is being printed using standard printer ink producing a lifelike model.
The final 3D Printing process is Photopolymerization, which utilizes stereolithography to produce a solid model from a liquid polymer using UV light. The most common of these techniques is called Digital Light Processing or DLP. With this technique the printing platform is dipped into a liquid polymer, where UV light solidifies portions of the polymer on the platform. Each dip adds another layer to the object. Here, the technique is used to manufacture custom ear molds.
The Peachy Printer is a kickstarter project which claims to be the first $100 3D printer. This Peachy Printer utilizes the sound output port of your computer to create small printed objects using the DLP technique.
In the next video, we'll look at all the ways 3D printers are being used.

Looking at the shops and crowds of Navy Pier today, it may be hard to imagine that Chicago’s number one tourist attraction was built to revive the city’s dwindling downtown shipping industry. The original pier, built in 1916, was filled with commercial warehouses and lined with docks for lake freighters to load and unload cargo. The 3,000-foot pier proved to be no match, though, for the bustling harbors of Chicago’s southside and Milwaukee.
Look across the small bay to the south and you will get an up-close view of the man-made shoreline that stretches across most of the city's border with Lake Michigan. The sea walls to your right and directly in front of you—one lined with metal, the other with rocks—serve as a kind of armor for the shoreline, protecting it from erosion and flooding. Both types of sea walls reduce the brunt of incoming waves, but the rocks can also double as habitat for fish, invertebrates, and even bacteria that prefer rocky shores.


How Digitally Rhetorical Are You?
Invention
You tell students "to begin your next paper, start with one of your classmates previous papers. Pick one that you know was successful or highly graded if you can. Copy and paste all of the text into a new file and begin systematically editing the file at the word and sentence level to allow it to suit your current topic and context more readily."
Been there, done that.
I might give this a shot as an in-class exercise.
Um, I don't know about that.
That's cheating! (but do you have an old committee report I could look at, I have one due next week...)
That's it! I am not reading any further!.
Arrangement
You say "I don't want you to think of 'paragraphs' as the important chunks in this writing assignment. Each chunk - whatever its size - should have the same overall structure and should stand alone. If a reader encounters it, they should be able to understand it in isolation from the other chunks. No transitional statements or indexicals allowed!"
Been there, done that.
I might give this a shot as an in-class exercise.
Um, I don't know about that.
That's cheating!
That's it! I am not reading any further!.
Style
You explain "we are going to think of style information as metadata, a layer of information that helps to describe how our message should look on the page, who its should address itself to, and how these factors should influence the way audience members, overall, experience that message. I want you to compose two distinct metadata layers for your message, encoding them in a formalized way using Cascading Style Sheets, in order to customize your message for two different audiences."
Been there, done that.
I might give this a shot as an in-class exercise.
Um, I have no idea what you're talking about.
That technobabble doesn't belong in my classroom!
That's it! I am not reading any further!.
Memory
You say "when you turn in your assignment, please make sure that I have read/write/execute access to your public web directory so that I can access the change histories of your drafts."
Been there, done that.
I might give this a shot as an in-class exercise.
Um, is this a portfolio we are talking about? 'cause I have some manilla folders on hand...
I teach writing, not computer science!
That's it! I am not reading any further!.
Delivery
You implore: "No print please! I can't evaluate the transformations you've designed if I only have static views on paper!"
Been there, done that.
I might give this a shot as an in-class exercise.
Um, I think I might need to upgrade my browser.

That's it! I am not reading any further!.

Ayda Field had concerns about Robbie Williams when they first met
Ayda Field has revealed she had concerns about her husband Robbie Williams when they met.
The duo were first introduced to each other just two weeks before the star entered rehab.
And now the pair have discussed their first impressions when talking on Loose Women.
The father-of-three said: ‘I met Ayda two weeks before going to rehab and it still didn’t put her off!
However, the actress insisted she followed her heart, and ignored the warning signs.
‘I didn’t know what I was getting into,’ she confessed: ‘There were warning signs dancing over his head, but I was like, “I think I love him.”’

Robbie was on the show to promote his new Christmas album and said he can finally enjoy the festive season after overcoming his demons.
‘I had to stop boozing and then Christmas became a symbol of what’s wrong with your life,’ he explained.
‘Everything is on TV going, “hey you should be loving and family is great’ and it made me feel worse. But then came Ayda.’
Beaming down the lens, he said: ‘She’s like a professional memory maker, she makes anniversaries incredible and we get lost in festive joy because of this lady.
‘Christmas was phenomenal before the kids, but then the kids made it sensational.’
When the show started the singer forgot he was live on air and ended up walking into the ITV studio to see his wife.
Looking confused, the guest panelist quizzed him over what he was doing to which Robbie laughed: ‘What we’re not live are we?’
When the hosts nodded, the Angels hitmaker quickly ran away as Ayda shouted: ‘Oh bless him, bless him!’
But his faux pas was soon explained, as he arrived back on stage for his slot.
Taking a seat, the 45-year-old said: ‘I thought you were speaking to Phil and Holly and then people looked worried and I was like, “You can’t stop me from speaking to my wife!”’

Looking at the audience, he shrugged: ‘Soz everybody.’

Exotic venomous snake rescued at British sewage plant
by Ben HooperNov. 14 (UPI) -- A snake found by workers at a sewage plant in Britain turned out to be a venomous species from South America, animal rescuers said.
The RSPCA said an exotic animal specialist was dispatched to Thames Water sewage works in Basingstoke, England, after employees reported a snake found on a path.
"It almost certainly wasn't flushed down a toilet as there's no way it would have survived -- our machinery which filters out everything other than pee, poo and paper would have killed it. I can only fathom it was released or escaped," sewage works manager Kenny Masters said.
RSPCA Animal Welfare Officer Justine Hermon said the exotic animal specialist, Phil Hamilton, was surprised to identify the snake as a false water cobra, a venomous species native to South America. The species' name refers to the hood on its neck, which resembles that of a cobra.
"We have now taken the snake to a nearby specialist facility where it will be cared for it until its owner can be tracked down or it can be rehomed," Hermon said. "Thankfully, it is in good condition and is eating well. We're grateful to the Thames Water staff who found the snake and got in touch as this snake would not have fared well in the cold weather."

java.lang.Object java.awt.Robot
public class Robot
This class is used to generate native system input events for the purposes of test automation, self-running demos, and other applications where control of the mouse and keyboard is needed. The primary purpose of Robot is to facilitate automated testing of Java platform implementations.
Using the class to generate input events differs from posting
events to the AWT event queue or AWT components in that the
events are generated in the platform's native input
queue. For example, Robot.mouseMove
will actually move
the mouse cursor instead of just generating mouse move events.
Note that some platforms require special privileges or extensions
to access low-level input control. If the current platform configuration
does not allow input control, an AWTException
will be thrown
when trying to construct Robot objects. For example, X-Window systems
will throw the exception if the XTEST 2.2 standard extension is not supported
(or not enabled) by the X server.
Applications that use Robot for purposes other than self-testing should handle these error conditions gracefully.

CAPTAIN EO A film commentary by Ken Johnson Copyright 1992 Ken Johnson
20 min., not rated, Science Fiction/Musical Director: Francis Ford Coppola Cast: Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson is "Captain Eo," the leader of a space crew. They have messed up every mission given to them. If they mess up one more time, it will be their last mission.The crew is being sent to a planet to bring a gift of peace to the ruler of the planet. "Captain Eo" is playing, and has been for several years, at Walt Disney World's Epcot Center. It is directed by Francis Ford Coppola, the director of THE GODFATHER trilogy, and is presented to you in the polarized 3-D technology.
I'm not writing a review on this film, per se, but just giving some comments on it. This film, I think, makes good use of the 3-D. It uses a few of the old 3-D tricks of shooting things out over the audiences' heads, but mostly the 3-D is used to give the film depth. This use of depth makes the film seem more realistic.
Since I first saw "Captain Eo" several years ago, Disney has added "in-theater effects." I feel that these "in theater effects" were a big mistake. Some of the effects are lights flashing in the back of the theater to simulate gun fire and smoke coming out from under the screen. I found the flashing lights to be very distracting and the smoke covered up part of the screen.
The film has a good message behind it, well, don't all Disney films. The message in "Captain Eo" was to have world peace. This message is presented primarily in song form. The songs are well done and are sung by Michael Jackson, who has a good voice when he uses it. The overall quality of the film is very good and I would suggest that if you are ever in Epcot Center you go and watch the film.

Directed by Scott Sanders Written by Scott Sanders
Starring Alec Baldwin, Michael Jai White, Andre Braugher, Rebecca De Mornay, Bruce Greenwood, Julia Sweeney, and Janeane Garafolo.
Grade: ** (out of four)
A sometimes entertaining, mostly confused film, "Thick as Thieves" never made it in the theaters outside of Sundance. It may have done well at the box office, but maybe after similar films bombed, such as "Clay Pigeons" or "Goodbye Lover," executives decided to send it straight to cable. Oh well.
Despite its talented cast and interesting premise, the movie lacks a big scene or a memorable climax to help bring everything together at the end. The film introduces plenty of promising characters but never develops them or the scenarios they are involved in. It is very hard to determine if "Thick as Thieves" is an attempted satire of an Elmore Leonard crime novel or a cheap imitation of one. Either way, it fails at what it tries to become, a clever black comedy. There is not one character the viewer can relate to, mainly because we only receive glimpses of who these individuals really are or because
they are so cliched and predictable that they are uninteresting. The only good guy in the film who comes close to an "average Joe" is a cop who spends the whole film investigating the bad guys. There are no scenes of the cop's personal life outside of her job so we never learn anything about the character. Rebecca De Mornay plays her terribly flat with absolutely no emotions and she looks so much like Hillary Clinton that at times it is very distracting. Sometimes films succeed without any normal characters (see "Pulp Fiction") because the situations they are in are so outrageous and irregular that they are enjoyable. "Thick as Thieves" is not enjoyable because nothing happens. No interesting twists, no funny jokes, no decent subplots, and especially no originality. Nothing.
The straight forward plot is a fight between a car stealing gang, led by Michael Jai White, and an infamous thief (Alec Baldwin), known as the thief. The thief is angry at the gang because they tried to set him up and get him killed over twenty thousand dollars worth of food stamps. The rest of the movie has the two sides playing tricks on each other in order to entertain themselves. The plot was interesting because it started out very unusual.  However, as the film dragged on and the same food stamp joke remained, the funniness eventually died off. The pathetic aspect though never disappeared. >From the opening point, writer-director Sanders should have elaborated into new grounds. He should have thrown in interesting secrets about the characters or maybe another reason for the two sides to fight each other. In other words, he should have made a different movie after the first twenty minutes.
Alec Baldwin and Michael Jai White are supposed to be wild unique bad guys. This notion is somewhat examined at times when we see Baldwin's obsession with his dog or with music records and White's obsession with French food. However, there is certainly not enough of this humorous eccentricity in the film. Sanders also had a very talented cast of supporting actors to fill the roles but they were not used to their full potential. Jeneane Garafolo had a blink and you missed her appearance. Andre Braugher, so effective and memorable on the television show "Homicide: Life on the Streets" is supposed to be an Iago character to White's leadership, but it is terribly confusing as to what side he is on and what he believes in especially at the end of the film.
"Thick as Thieves" is an unsuccessful attempt at repeating the comedic cleverness of crime stories such as "Get Shorty" or "Out of Sight." As a feature debut for Sanders, it was a respectable first try.
Grade: ** (out of four)

Stylish Select attempts to replicate the functionality of the browser default select box as closely as possible with support for keyboard navigation, and intelligent positioning.
Stylish Select aims to have a minimal code footprint and weighs in at just over 3KB when minified.
First, include the stylesheet, jQuery and the stylish select .js file in your html head tag.
The plugin can be used to replace any select with the following:
$(document).ready(function(){ $('#my-dropdown').sSelect(); });
You can use the alphabetical and arrow keys to navigate the list as you would a browser default select.
Stylish Select alters the original select on the page, so you can access it's change event:
//change event $('#my-dropdownChange').sSelect().change(function(){alert('changed')});
Stylish Select supports optgroups and also optgroups and options together.
//set value $('#setVal').click(function(){ $('#my-dropdown5').getSetSSValue(4); }); //get value $('#getVal').click(function(){ alert('The value is: '+$('#my-dropdown5').getSetSSValue()); });
Set value to 4
Get value
//add options to select and update $('#addOptions').click(function(){ $('#my-dropdown6').append('<option value="newOpt">New Option</option>').resetSS(); });
If you add or remove options from the initial select element on the page, be sure to call the .resetSS() method on the select to update the Stylish Select replacement.
Add new options to select and update
$('#my-dropdown').sSelect({ddMaxHeight: '300px'});
Stylish Select will always remain visible on the page.
