alexa The neuropsychology of sex offenders: a meta-analysis.

Journal of Forensic Psychology

Abstract Share this page

Abstract Typically, neuropsychological studies of sex offenders have grouped together different types of individuals and different types of measures. This is why results have tended to be nonspecific and divergent across studies. Against this background, the authors undertook a review of the literature regarding the neuropsychology of sex offenders, taking into account subgroups based on criminological theories. They also conducted a meta-analysis of the data to demonstrate the cognitive heterogeneity of sex offenders statistically. Their main objective was to test the hypothesis to the effect that the neuropsychological deficits of sex offenders are not broad and generalized compared with specific subgroups of participants based on specific measures. In all, 23 neuropsychological studies reporting data on 1,756 participants were taken into consideration. As expected, a highly significant, broad, and heterogeneous overall effect size was found. Taking subgroups of participants and specific cognitive measures into account significantly improved homogeneity. Sex offenders against children tended to obtain lower scores than did sex offenders against adults on higher order executive functions, whereas sex offenders against adults tended to obtain results similar to those of non-sex offenders, with lower scores in verbal fluency and inhibition. However, it is concluded that neuropsychological data on sex offenders are still too scarce to confirm these trends or to test more precise hypotheses. For greater clinical relevance, future neuropsychological studies should consider specific subgroups of participants and measures to verify the presence of different cognitive profiles.

Xbox One first impressions: It works… sometimes

Xbox One

The Xbox One is here! It launched across the globe this past Friday and I was eager to get my hands on one. I managed to get hold of a brand new Xbox One Day One Edition on Saturday morning, so it was all set up in the early afternoon of Saturday. I went out shortly afterwards, so I’ve only had today to mess with it. Here’s my first impressions of the Xbox One.

It’s awesome. Seriously, as I’ve got my Xbox One setup as the central hub of my home, it’s on 24/7. It has my TV box being passed through, my Microsoft account is hooked up meaning all my Xbox Music and Video content is readily available. I’ve also got my SkyDrive photos ready to viewing at anytime. It’s pretty damn convenient.

You do not know how cool it is to just walk into your living room in the morning and have your Xbox recognize and automatically sign you in. It’s also so really convenient having the Xbox One be both a games and TV console. For example, earlier today I was sitting down and I decided to play a game. I didn’t even need to move, I just said “Xbox, switch to Call of Duty: Ghosts” and it did it, almost like magic. I was away playing my game!

“But when it works, it works like a dream. It feels like the future.”

Snapping is also a dream, just being able to snap TV is so convenient for both me and everyone else. If I’m in the middle of something and someone else wants to watch some TV, I just tell them to say “Xbox, snap TV” and instantly they have TV on whilst I play my game.

But, of course, there are some defects. For example, it doesn’t always work. Xbox One acts much more like a PC than a games console. Turning it on takes an abnormal amount of time from cold boot, and the system can slow down dramatically when downloading and installing games or having multiple apps run at once.

The Kinect also struggles sometimes, as I’ve had trouble getting it to recognize certain people. I can walk into the room and it’ll recognize me just fine, but with others it seems to refuse to see them. The voice control can also be a pain in the backside too. Sometimes it just refuses to listen.

“Xbox, sign me out” … nothing. I get no response. “Xbox, go home” … still nothing. The Xbox will just freeze and not respond to my voice. I have to pretty much shout at it to get it to hear me. The controller works fine, but Kinect seems to be busy listening to everything else but me.

The Xbox will even hear me sometimes, but not my command. I’ll say “Xbox, go home” and it’ll hear me say Xbox, but not the ‘Go Home’ bit. It’s annoying.

But when it works, it works like a dream. It feels like the future. It feels like you’re in a science fiction movie based in the 2100’s. It’s awesome. Just, when it doesn’t work, it feels so stupid. I had myself thinking at one point that it would just be fast to grab my controller.

I’m sure these defects will eventually be ironed out with future updates. But right now it’s tiresome. Like I said, when it works its awesome. But 40% of the time it just doesn’t want to cooperate. It does gaming very well, but everything else seems to be just a little bit buggy. We’ll see how it works in the coming weeks, as surely an update is on the way.

There are conflicting accounts of exactly how Bradley Manning, the alleged whistleblower on countless U.S. government crimes, has been illegally punished for 8 months so far, pre-trial. There's no denying that this young man who allegedly sought to make his government's actions known for the public good and did not seek to profit thereby has been denied a speedy trial. The question is to what extent he has already been punished, and even cruelly and unusually punished, without having been convicted of any crime. But the accounts differ less than it at first appears. And there is one sure way to find out the facts.

Let's look first at what Glenn Greenwald reported on December 15th. Greenwald wrote that he had interviewed "several people directly familiar with the conditions of Manning's detention, ultimately including a Quantico brig official (Lt. Brian Villiard) who confirmed much of what they conveyed." In Greenwald's account, Manning had been a model detainee and had never been on suicide watch, but had been declared from the start a "Maximum Custody Detainee," and had been held from the start in "intensive solitary confinement . . . for 23 out of 24 hours every day . . . he sits completely alone in his cell."

- Advertisement -

In Greenwald's account, Manning is forbidden from exercising in his cell and is under "constant surveillance." He has, or at least had at this time, no pillow or sheets. And during his one hour out of his cell he is barred from accessing any news (apparently meaning on television or radio) according to some of Greenwald's sources, presumably including David House, a friend of Manning's whom Greenwald cites, but not according to Lt. Villiard. According to Greenwald, "Lt. Villiard protested that the conditions are not 'like jail movies where someone gets thrown into the hole,' but confirmed that he is in solitary confinement, entirely alone in his cell except for the one hour per day he is taken out." Greenwald did not say whether Manning's cell was silent or whether he could hear the voices of other prisoners or guards. He did not say whether the cell had a window or access to daylight. He did say that Manning was being administered regular doses of anti-depressants. I am assuming no one outside the military is able to confirm what drugs Manning has actually been administered or whether they have all been antidepressants, and that Manning himself cannot confirm this. But there is one way to find out.

On December 18th, Manning's lawyer David Coombs wrote about Manning's treatment on his website. Coombs used two terms to describe Manning's detention: "maximum custody" and "Prevention of Injury (POI) watch." Coombs continued:

"His cell is approximately six feet wide and twelve feet in length. The cell has a bed, a drinking fountain, and a toilet. . . . [H]e is not allowed to sleep at anytime between 5:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. If he attempts to sleep during those hours, he will be made to sit up or stand by the guards. He is allowed to watch television [apparently in his cell] during the day. The television stations are limited to the basic local stations. His access to the television ranges from 1 to 3 hours on weekdays to 3 to 6 hours on weekends."

Coombs continued, describing the cell: "He cannot see other inmates from his cell. He can occasionally hear other inmates talk. Due to being a pretrial confinement facility, inmates rarely stay at the facility for any length of time. Currently, there are no other inmates near his cell.

"From 7:00 p.m. to 9:20 p.m., he is given correspondence time. He is given access to a pen and paper. He is allowed to write letters to family, friends, and his attorneys. Each night, during his correspondence time, he is allowed to take a 15 to 20 minute shower. On weekends and holidays, he is allowed to have approved visitors see him from 12:00 to 3:00 p.m. He is allowed to receive letters from those on his approved list and from his legal counsel. If he receives a letter from someone not on his approved list, he must sign a rejection form. The letter is then either returned to the sender or destroyed.

"He is allowed to have any combination of up to 15 books or magazines. He must request the book or magazine by name. Once the book or magazine has been reviewed by the literary board at the confinement facility, and approved, he is allowed to have someone on his approved list send it to him. The person sending the book or magazine to him must do so through a publisher or an approved distributor such as Amazon. They are not allowed to mail the book or magazine directly to PFC Manning.

"Due to being held on Prevention of Injury (POI) watch: PFC Manning is held in his cell for approximately 23 hours a day. The guards are required to check on PFC Manning every five minutes by asking him if he is okay. PFC Manning is required to respond in some affirmative manner. At night, if the guards cannot see PFC Manning clearly, because he has a blanket over his head or is curled up towards the wall, they will wake him in order to ensure he is okay. . . . He is not allowed to have a pillow or sheets. However, he is given access to two blankets and has recently been given a new mattress that has a built-in pillow.

"He is not allowed to have any personal items in his cell. He is only allowed to have one book or one magazine at any given time to read in his cell. The book or magazine is taken away from him at the end of the day before he goes to sleep. He is prevented from exercising in his cell. If he attempts to do push-ups, sit-ups, or any other form of exercise he will be forced to stop. He does receive one hour of 'exercise' outside of his cell daily. He is taken to an empty room and only allowed to walk. PFC Manning normally just walks figure eights in the room for the entire hour. If he indicates that he no long feels like walking, he is immediately returned to his cell. When PFC Manning goes to sleep, he is required to strip down to his boxer shorts and surrender his clothing to the guards. His clothing is returned to him the next morning."

On December 23rd, David House posted his own report on Manning's condition:

- Advertisement -

"In his five months of detention [not counting two previous months in Kuwait], it has become obvious to me that Manning's physical and mental well-being are deteriorating. What Manning needs, and what his attorney has already urged, is to have the unnecessary 'Prevention of Injury' order lifted that severely restricts his ability to exercise, communicate, and sleep."

"Manning has been living under the solitary restrictions of POI for five months despite being cleared by a military psychologist earlier this year, and despite repeated calls from his attorney David Coombs to lift the severely restrictive and isolating order. POI orders are short-term restrictions that are typically implemented when a detainee changes confinement facilities and these orders are lifted after the detainee passes psychological evaluation."

House quotes from a Daily Beast report of an interview with Coombs stating that Manning was initially -- and the article implies, baselessly -- placed on suicide watch: "When he was first arrested, Manning was put on suicide watch, but his status was quickly changed to 'Prevention of Injury' watch (POI), and under this lesser pretense he has been forced into his life of mind-numbing tedium. . . . Both Coombs and Manning's psychologist, Coombs says, are sure Manning is mentally healthy, that there is no evidence he's a threat to himself, and shouldn't be held in such severe conditions under the artifice of his own protection."

Lent survival tip No. 14: Twiddle your thumbs

Throughout this Lenten season, we have talked about very specific ways to pray, fast and give alms, whether a 15-minute prayer structure, ways to read Scripture or volunteer ideas. This week, try something entirely different. Fast from time.

We schedule our lives and try to fit in so many activities and people into the day. So take off the watch and silence the phone (and do not look at it) before sitting with the Lord in prayer or spending the afternoon with someone. Focus on God. Focus on that person. Not you. Not what comes next. Not the to-do list. (Note: This could be slightly disastrous on a workday, so it is most likely best to save this for Saturday.)

Pope Francis told parents to “waste time” with their children, emphasizing the importance of the “free gift” of time. The same holds true in our other relationships. Give the gift of time.

Each week during Lent I am sharing a quick tip on each of the three disciplines of the season: prayer, fasting and almsgiving. So tune in throughout the week for more ideas! This is the last week of Lent before Holy Week. I pray you make it count.

      It's exactly what I hoped it would be. And I kind of liked that it didn't come with sheets because that meant I got to choose my own color. I've heard some people say it's hard to match, but it actually goes really good with my mint green walls and the lilac sheets I bought. It was definitely worth what I paid for.

      Love.! Exactly what I had in mind. The comforter is perfect for all weather. Thin enough to keep me cool and thick enough to snuggle up in. Matched pretty well with my lavender sheets and really ties my room together. I am also taking. This to my new house with my husband for our bedroom. It's just the right design and style for our room. And my sister who is 25 also has this in her bedroom at her house with her husband and two kids. It's not only for teens.!

      We had been looking for a cute XL twin comforter set and found only ugly pattern ones that just wouldn't do. Many colleges and universities offer deep discounts on comforter sets, but most of those were just not what my daughter was looking for. This comforter set is definitely high-quality, and comes with cute pillows to accent the darling comforter. Glad we bought ours when we did because they sold out quickly!

Buying Household Staples Online

Jul 20, 2010

The magazine’s “Deal of the Day” blog looks at online deals for everyday household items. The regularity with which consumers buy household goods appeals to web retailers, says DAWN IACOBUCCI, a professor of marketing at the Owen Graduate School of Management at Vanderbilt University. Even (AMZN: 120.10, +0.16, +0.13%) offers groceries and home products. “They’re all hoping to hook you on the convenience of home delivery for a regular order,” she says.

2 million voices support African agriculture

(Dakar, Senegal) From June 20 to 27, 2014, the African Union's Heads of State will meet in Malabo to discuss agriculture and food security in Africa. This pre-African Union summit will be an opportunity to review progress on the Maputo Declaration.

Ten years after the 2003 Maputo summit on Agriculture and Food Security, where African Heads of State agreed to allocate at least 10 percent of their national budget to agriculture, only eight countries have continuously met the Maputo target (Burkina Faso, Niger, Guinea, Senegal, Mali and Ghana in West Africa).

On the eve of the Malabo meeting, a petition signed by more than 2 million African citizens has called on the African Union, to "Invest in our farmers, our food and our futures". West African artists have also joined their voices to celebrate farmers and have composed a hymn for the International Year of Family Farming. They also remind the Heads of State of their pledges and the need to take action. According to the international artist Baaba Maal, "By making our agriculture more productive, we will be able to avoid severe food crises such as the one that hit the Sahel in 2012."

In Africa, more than 223 million people suffer from hunger while producers claim they can feed the continent if the Maputo commitments were secured. In countries such as Burkina Faso, 92 percent of the population are active in farming and agriculture makes up 34% of the country's GDP, according to a recent survey carried out by ONE. A massive and qualitative investment in agriculture in Africa is 11 times more effective at reducing poverty than growth in other sectors and would lead, accordingly, to a sustainable change in the life of millions of Africans (FAO).

"For a successful agriculture industry, substantial investments are required using transparent budgeting processes. Governments which have not yet reached the 10 percent threshold must do so as quickly as possible. All countries should prioritize mechanisms to mobilize domestic resources in favour of agriculture," says Mohamed Lamine Ndiaye, Pan-Africa Head of Oxfam's GROW campaign.

Farmers' organizations and civil society organizations at the regional and Pan-African level have issued 10 recommendations for new policy commitments at the June African Union Summit, in order to achieve food security in Africa. These recommendations came out of a thorough analysis of the challenges and potential of African agriculture. Heads of State must address them in Malabo and show leadership in their implementation.

“The African Union has declared 2014 as the year of agriculture and food security, sending a strong message. In Malabo, we must move from rhetoric to action to ensure enough food for present and future generations,” added the Permanent Secretary of the Bilital Maroobé Network.

Malabo 2014 must be the meeting point between engagement and action, in order to fulfil the conditions necessary for a sound African agriculture capable of feeding Africans. From the Malabo Summit, African civil society expects a new policy commitment of African States valuing family farming through quantitative and qualitative investments. Civil society organizations pledge to remain mobilized and vigilant to make sure those commitments are fulfilled.

Notes to editors

Oxfam's GROW campaign helps people to participate in the global management of land, water and the climate so they can grow and buy food sustainably. Women's rights and gender equality are at the heart of the campaign. Partner organizations in the GROW campaign in West Africa are: Billital Marobe, Poscao, IPAR, RACAO, APESS, WILDAF and OXFAM.

GROW is in partnership with the World Rural Forum, as part of the International Year of Family Farming for which a hymn from the campaign is offered to the farmers of the world.

GROW and ONE initiated the petition “Invest in our farmers, our food and our futures” in a joint campaign for a new commitment at Malabo.

Early Weather History

What newspaper was the first to begin publishing daily weather forecasts

The London Times was the first newspaper to publish daily weather forecasts in 1860. The forecasts were originally written by retired Admiral Robert FitzRoy (1805–1865), who at the time was head of the meteorological department at the Board of Trade. The early reports concerned temperature, air pressure, and rainfall; beginning in 1861, storm forecasts were added.

Cleveland Abbe founded the Weather Bulletin anc established the National Weather Bureau. (NOAA)

Electing the Assembly

Electing the Assembly

The Legislative Assembly consists of 93 Members, each representing an electoral district of New South Wales. Members of the Legislative Assembly are elected for a maximum term of four years. As the last election was 2015, the next state election will be the last Saturday in March 2019. If a seat becomes vacant between elections it will be filled at a by-election. Any person qualified to vote in New South Wales is entitled to run for a seat in the Legislative Assembly.

Members of the Legislative Assembly are elected using an optional preferential system. The name of each candidate and their political party affiliation (if applicable) is listed on the ballot paper. In order for a vote to be valid, voters must place the number “1” in the square next to the name of the candidate who is their first choice. Voters then have the option of allocating further preferences by placing consecutive numbers, beginning with the number “2”, in the squares next to the names of additional candidates.

A Sample Ballot FormThe candidate that receives more than half the number of formal first preference votes cast in the electoral district is declared the winner. If no candidate receives more than half the formal first preference votes, a distribution of preferences takes place. During this process, the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated and their ballot papers are distributed to the remaining candidates according to the next available preference shown on them. Ballot papers which only have a first preference cast cannot be distributed and are exhausted. This process is repeated, with one candidate being eliminated each time, until a candidate has more than half the number of remaining votes.

Further Information
For information on current Members of the Legislative Assembly, including contact and biographical details, see Members in the Assembly.

For a breakdown of numbers of government, opposition and independent Members, see Party representation in the Assembly.

I really like the design and style of as it looks nice and fresh. I am also a fan of the search box used on The setup is a good base but i want something more minimalist in appearance.

The main aim is to allow users to select a location or postcode and then select a storage space required. We would then provide them with prices from all local self storage companies. We would want to cover storage prices, insurance prices and packaging prices.

In order to provide content i would like to link to a database that can be updated regularly with company information and prices etc.

  • PublicationGifts in Honor of the 125th Anniversary of the Philadelphia Museum of Art

    Using her family’s financial resources, Maria Longworth Nichols Storer established the Rookwood pottery manufactory in Cincinnati, Ohio, in November 1880. Almost immediately, the company attracted the finest ceramic artists, who began wonderfully innovative experiments with colored glazes to complement their designs. Both the artistic caliber of the potters and the rich variety of the glazes they used distinguish Rookwood pottery as some of the finest wares made through the mid-twentieth century in the United States.

    Edwin AtLee Barber, Museum director from 1907 to 1916, was particularly interested in the history and collection of ceramics. During his tenure, he purchased examples of Rookwood pottery directly from the artists at various international exhibitions for the Museum’s burgeoning collection of decorative arts. It is, therefore, fitting that this institution has become the repository for over one hundred pieces of Gerald and Virginia Gordon’s spectacular collection of Rookwood pottery. The Gordons’ magnanimous gift raises the Museum’s rank to the premier venue in which to view the finest late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century American art pottery.

    While the Rookwood manufactory marketed its products based on the different glazes, the Gordons collected their pieces with an eye for the numerous aesthetic styles that motivated the artists. The Gordon's collection embodies the breadth of artistic influences as well as the variety of shapes and glazes that make Rookwood pottery so desirable.

Portrait of a Single Atom
Jul 2012
BRISBANE, Australia, July 11, 2012 — The shadow of a single atom was photographed for the first time using a superhigh-resolution microscope, a discovery that could help scientists confirm their understanding of atomic physics and be useful for quantum computing.

“We have reached the extreme limit of microscopy; you cannot see anything smaller than an atom using visible light,” said professor Dave Kielpinski of Griffith University’s Centre for Quantum Dynamics. “We wanted to investigate how few atoms are required to cast a shadow, and we proved it takes just one.”

Holding an atom still long enough to take its photo is not new technology; the atom is isolated within a chamber and held in free space by electrical forces.

Kielpinski and colleagues trapped single atomic ytterbium ions and exposed them to a specific frequency of light. Under the light, the atom’s shadow was cast onto a detector, and a digital camera captured the image. At the heart of their five-year-long achievement is a superhigh-resolution microscope, which made the shadow dark enough to see.

“By using the ultrahigh-res microscope, we were able to concentrate the image down to a smaller area than has been achieved before, creating a darker image which is easier to see,” Kielpinski said.

The precision involved in the process is almost beyond imagining.

“If we change the frequency of the light we shine on the atom by just one part in a billion, the image can no longer be seen,” he said.

The implications of these findings are far reaching, said research team member Dr. Erik Streed.

“Such experiments help confirm our understanding of atomic physics and may be useful for quantum computing,” he said. There are also potential follow-on benefits for biomicroscopy.

Imaging of a single atom.

“Because we are able to predict how dark a single atom should be, as in how much light it should absorb in forming a shadow, we can measure if the microscope is achieving the maximum contrast allowed by physics,” Streed said. “This is important if you want to look at very small and fragile biological samples such as DNA strand, where exposure to too much UV light or x-rays will harm the material.”

It is now possible to predict just how much light will be needed to observe processes within cells under the microscope without crossing the threshold and destroying them, he said.

“In the end, a little bit of light just might be enough to get the job done.”

The results appeared in Nature Communications.

    I'm developing a website. Its targetting tutors after jobs. Each tutor is given a webpage containing all his personal an professional information, so that people looking for a teacher can come, search and find the guy who suits their needs.
    With the short description given, let me know what do you think about this question:
    What kind of registration process is good for the website?
    You know, I can simply put a "resgister" button in my homepage and provide the tutors with a form to fill in the blank and join the website. Or I can forget about this kind of registration and only do it by allowing the present members to send invitation emails to their friends and invite them to join the website. Much the same way that Google does it, in Orkut and gmail.
    Any suggestion would be appreciated.
    Thank you very much

    I would go with either both or only the first one. I don't think registration by invitation by itself is going to benefit you in any way. To be honest i'm not a fan of Google's invitation-based registration system, even if it works.

X ray diffraction For crystal structure Analysis

  1. Sep 10, 2007 #1
    1. Find the crystal structure , the lattice parameter of the metal.
    Known 2[tex]\theta[/tex] of the peaks

    2. bragg's law [tex]\lambda[/tex]=2 d[tex]_{h,k,l}[/tex] /b]sin[tex]^{2}[/tex]([tex]\theta[/tex])
    Also, the cubic interplanes distance d[tex]_{h,k,l}[/tex] = a0/(squr(h[tex]^{2}[/tex]+k[tex]^{2}[/tex]+l[tex]^{2}[/tex])

    3. The attempt at a solution:
    Since I didn't know the lattice parameter I just take the sin[tex]^{2}[/tex] of every theta and the divide every number between the smallest number, (the first peak one), to get integers. According to that I should know which cubic structure is( BCC FCC SC) What's happens is that I get the following numbers with all the procedure 4,6,12,14,16,22,26,28. I can't identify which one is.

    Thanks for any help.

Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 Multiplayer Director On “Overpowered” Sniper Rifles

Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 Multiplayer Director On “Overpowered” Sniper Rifles

“Sniper rifles are OP.” It’s a complaint you regularly here in relation to Call Of Duty games. But as Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3’s multiplayer director told us in the latest issue of Play, those perceptions aren’t always reality.

“There were certain weapons that people thought were overpowered, which clearly they were,” said Bunting when we asked about the changes that Treyarch made to the game after receiving feedback from the game’s pre-launch beta.

However, what is more interesting to us is the scenario Bunting outlined where players tell you a particular weapons is overpowered, but the data suggests it is not.

“The way that we approach anything weather it’s a weapon or gameplay mechanics, is that we look at the emotional, perception, kind of touchy feely side of it, and then we also look at the raw science and hard data that comes back and you have to keep the two things in balance,” Bunting explained. “Sometimes they’re completely in sync and the things that people say line up with what the data tells you. Other times, they tell completely different stories and those are the ones that are more interesting challenges because you have to think about why do people perceive something this way, even if the statistics are telling you its not.”

“One of the most classic examples of that is sniper rifles,” Bunting continued. “They’re always controversial! People have a lot of strong opinions about them! A lot of players feel that they’re overpowered and perceive them as being overpowered, but all the statistics show that in terms of actual effectiveness in gameplay, they’re not nearly as effective as something like an assault rifle, which is way more accessible to any player.

“A sniper rifle takes a lot of skill to actually use in practice and be effective with it,” said Bunting. “I think it’s because it’s a very powerful weapon – some of them are one shot kills and any time you get killed in one shot in a multiplayer game, you’re always going to have that perception afterwards that something is overpowered and its wrong. It’s a matter of does it fit in the spectrum of mechanics we have in the game? Does it fit in a place that serves a gameplay role and that serves a purpose that is both fun to use and still viable if you’re working in a certain role on a team, for example. It’s always a balance.”

Rigour - Poem by Marvin Mwangi

Why there are so many people
Fighting shy of me
I dont understand why
I guess am no different with them

Am so curious to know what they feel
Am I too odd to them
Sometimes I always wanted to be a wind
Guess what why

Am not the old person who buys a pig in a poke
Am different now
I dont want to think that they are just clipping my wings
And watch me fall

Do I need to suit the people down to the ground
Just for them to accept who I am

It might just be me, but I really love the tile-based puzzles and tricks that come from Pokemon games. I decided to make a program exploring their design and creating them out of random. This is just a demo. I don't really know where to take it to be honest.

Demo is made in C++, using SDL.
Can be downloaded here:

In its current state, the idea is simple. Get to the stairs that go up to complete the "level". The map then refreshed itself and never ends. In order to get there, the player must get through a randomized puzzle.

-Use of Ice tiles
-Use of Strength Boulders
-Use of Ledges
-Use of Rocket Base Arrow tiles
-Use of Switches
-Use of Warp Panels
-Combining concepts.
-Artistic design of maps.

-Maybe an actual game out of this.

I'll put this on git. Maybe. If people want and I feel like I've added enough.

This is really cool. I enjoy the puzzles too, and it's harder than it seems to make good ones (particularly in a restricted area).

I'd love to know how you generate the maps. Obviously you start off with full ice and the walls and then place objects (floor/holes/rocks/entrance/exit) according to some random system. How do you figure out where to place the exit? Do you make the rest of the map and then simulate a play-through for X steps and place the exit where you end up? The random placement system may also be interesting in itself, depending on whether and how you deviated from a purely random approach.

The other puzzle types you've written down are also fun. I'd like to know how you're thinking of making them.

This is awesome. It continued to amuse me for about an hour before I had to go and do something else.
Looking forward to seeing more from you!

Also, may I ask where you got the music from? Never did I think a Forest theme would fit better than an Ice one.

Minn. officer accused of posting about protesters resigns

He made on Facebook urged drivers to run over protesters

Associated Press

ST. PAUL, Minn. — A St. Paul police officer has resigned a month after a post he made on Facebook urged drivers to run over protesters who rallied against the police killings of two black men in the Twin Cities last year.

The St. Paul Police Department said Wednesday that Sgt. Jeff Rothecker has resigned his position with the department, effective immediately. The police statement said no additional details were available.

Rothecker had apologized earlier for the post. He was put on leave while the Police Department investigated.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press reported the social media message said, "Run them over," and told people how to avoid being charged with a crime if they struck someone during the Martin Luther King Day march and rally on a bridge linking St. Paul and Minneapolis.

Tonight on The OC

It's Valentine's Day on The OC this week and based on last week's scenes we are hoping for a fun episode since things have been rather dull these days. I'm really hoping the Johnny story line is put to rest now that he has fallen off the cliff. I am sooooo over the bizarro crew at Marissa's old-new school. As usual, the most interesting story line is about Seth and Summer. They are fighting and Seth gets slapped tonight so it should include some sassy conversation between the couple.

Zoe Saldana and Brooklyn Decker at the Met Gala

Who Wore Minimal Best?

Red, nude, and gold may have dominated the dress color spectrum at the Met's Costume Institute Gala last night, but two women were notable for their minimal, but boldly hued dresses. Brooklyn Decker chose a hot pink Michael Kors dress with long sleeves and a deep slit, while Zoe Saldana chose a strapless yellow Calvin Klein gown. On a night where excess and fanciful details ruled, these women made a statement in their sartorial restraint. Who wore minimal best?

Spain's Iberia Airlines Announces Layoffs

Spain's main airline, Iberia, will lose a quarter of its staff to layoffs. That's 4,500 jobs.

Player utilities

Listen to the Story.

Spain's unemployment is already the highest in the European Union. So this hardly comes as welcome news for a government trying to avoid an international bailout.

When British Airways merged with Iberia in 2011, the joint venture's new slogan was, "Stronger Together." It hasn't exactly worked out that way.

The news came from Bloomberg TV Friday: 4,500 jobs, 25 planes will go. Iberia, long a symbol of Spanish identity, is reeling.

The conglomerate that owns the airline, International Airline Group, or IAG, said Iberia is losing more than $2 million a day. IAG added without layoffs and restructuring it'll be grounded for good.

Iberia isn't just any old airline. For many it's inseparable from Spain itself. An indelible part of the national identity. When it merged with British last year, some worried for its future in the hands of foreigners. Friday some Spanish media reacted to the layoffs almost as if the country itself were under attack.

On national radio Friday morning, journalist Ricardo Martin said the news was just terrible. He said, "the truth is we're facing the dismantling a company that belongs to all Spaniards. "

Actually, Iberia hasn't been Spanish for over a decade. It was privatized and sold in 2001. Although this year the Spanish government did accidentally become its biggest shareholder again, when it was forced to nationalize a bank — and Iberia shareholder — called Bankia.

Iberia officials acknowledge they've lost their competitive edge to low-cost lines such as RyanAir and EasyJet. That's why Iberia started its own low-cost venture, called Vueling. But Friday, as IAG was announcing Iberia's massive layoffs, it took control of Vueling via stock purchases. That's angered Iberia execs further.

But Vueling makes money. So does IAG's other airline, British Airways. But the president of the Spanish airline pilots' union, Justo Peral, said BA has deliberately brought Iberia to its knees.

"They want to condemn Iberia to death," he told Spanish radio, "strip it of its very Spanish-ness. After all we Spaniards have invested in Spanish infrastructure. As the Brits hire more staff and grow their business, financing themselves with shares of Iberia, they dare to fire thousands of our workers."

Peral warned of massive protests.

It isn't all bad news in Spain Friday. An iconic Spanish company may be up against the ropes, but a major carmaker has announced plans to hire 250 Spaniards as it expands operations in Sevilla.

That company is French. Renault. It's not a lot of jobs. But with unemployment at 25 percent nationally, every bit helps.
