Nationally, officers receive about 50 hours of firearm training during the police academy. They receive less than 10 hours of de-escalation training. So, when they show up at a scene and pull their weapon, whether it be on teenagers walking down the street after playing a basketball game or someone in a hotel or even a car (like in the killing of Daunte Wright in a Minneapolis suburb), poor decisions and bad outcomes should not be surprising.

For the two centuries from roughly 1650 to 1850, poaching (of wood, game, fish, kindling, fodder) from Crown or private lands was the most popular crime in England. By “popular” I mean both the most frequent and the most heartily approved of by commoners.

The sender is the radio announcer who encodes a verbal message that is transmitted by a radio tower through electromagnetic waves (the channel) and eventually reaches your (the receiver’s) ears via an antenna and speakers in order to be decoded. The radio announcer doesn’t really know if you receive his or her message or not, but if the equipment is working and the channel is free of static, then there is a good chance that the message was successfully received.

In one of the city's most recent eruptions of gun violence, 21 people were injured in multiple shootings after a May 13 NBA playoff game. The incident was one of several mass shootings that occurred across the country that weekend — from a supermarket in Buffalo, N.Y., to a church in Laguna Woods, Calif.1

In Zemke v Arreola,47 16-year-old Nicholas Zemke sustained asevere and debilitating head injury while playing varsity foot-ball for his high school. During a game he suffered a dislo-cated finger, which was treated by the athletic trainer andteam physician. The coach asked the team physician whetherthe player was “done for the day” and was advised that theycould tape it up and that he would be fine and ready to go.Thereafter the coach asked the player if he was ready to go;the player responded that his finger was fine, but that “I’mnot ready to go in now.” The coach responded, “Okay, whenyou are ready to go in, come back and let me know.” He soonresumed play and collapsed during a time-out, having suf-fered a right subdural hematoma

The role that sport plays in society continues to evolve, and this is reflected in recent sport policy (Department of Health, 2018). For example, over recent years, there has been an increasing shift from traditional organized and competitive club-based sport to less structured, non-competitive, and individual forms of sport and PA (Eime et al., 2013; Eime R. et al., 2015; Borgers et al., 2016; Harris et al., 2017).

Just do not forget that the player still needs something they can relate to - unimaginative games with stereotypical characters will always sell more copies than an original game with a setting, character or gameplay that the player has trouble relating to.

emotional response to the climax of a musical piece can be very similar to how we feel when we are about to beat our previous track record in a racing game. So if we can trigger them together for the same effect at the same time, we can reach higher peaks of enjoyment.

For example, the game StarCraft is not just about managing resources and planning strategic moves with your game pieces. It is also about being a military leader in a distant future, it is about stopping a flood of aliens that are trying to take over your world, it is about treachery and deceit, and it is about doing the right thing and becoming a hero.

A common distraction in many games is difficult controls. If the controls are not simple or intuitive enough for us to be able to do what we want to do, we will constantly be distracted from what we are doing. Our focus will turn toward the controls instead of the game.

Playing a game of chess against an evenly matched opponent is a good example of this - if they were much better than we were, it could feel meaningless since we cannot really affect the outcome.

It's not obvious if you aren't trying to figure it out, I suppose; but 10 is decimal notation for "kiss" and the "often" without "of" ... and binary notation for the decimal equivalent of "2."

I was again thinking of the "perfect imperfections" of things like saying "three equals one equals one" (which, of course was related to the Holy Trinity and it's "prescient/anachronistic Adamic presence encoded in the name Ab|ra|ha|m" which means "father of a great multitude") ...

Written between 408, after Orestes, and 406 BC, the year of Euripides' death, the play was first produced the following year[2] in a trilogy with The Bacchae and Alcmaeon in Corinth by his son or nephew, Euripides the Younger,[3] and won first place at the City Dionysia in Athens. The play revolves around Agamemnon, the leader of the Greek coalition before and during the Trojan War, and his decision to sacrifice his daughter, Iphigenia, to appease the goddess Artemis and allow his troops to set sail to preserve their honour in battle against Troy. The conflict between Agamemnon and Achilles over the fate of the young woman presages a similar conflict between the two at the beginning of the Iliad. In his depiction of the experiences of the main characters, Euripides frequently uses tragic irony for dramatic effect. J.K. Rowling spurred just this past week a series of explanations about just exactly what is a blockchain coin worth ... and why is it so; her final words on the subject (artistic liberty taken, obviously not the last she'll say of this magic moment) "I don't think I trust this." Taken directly from an off the cuff email to ARXM titled: "Slow the S is ... our Hypothes.is" I imagine I'll be adding some wiki/ipfs stuff to it--and try to keep it compatible; the design and layout is almost exactly what I was dreaming about seeing--as a "first rough draft product." Lo, and behold. It's been added to the many places I host my tome; the small compilation of nearly every important email that has gone out ... all the way back to the days of the strange looking Margarita glass ... that now very much resembles the "Cantonese character 'le'" which I've come to associate with a "handle" on multiple corners of a room--something like an automatic coat rack conveyor belt connecting different versions of "what's in the box." I'm planning on using that symbol 了 to denote something like multiple forks of the same page. Obviously I'm thinking forward to things like "the Transhumaist Chain Party" (BDSM, right?)'s version of some particular piece of legislation, let's say everything starts with the sprawling "bulbing" of "Amendment M" ideas and specific verbiage ... and then we'll of course need some kind of new git/subversion/cvs style version control mechanism to merge intelligently into something that might actually .... really should ... make it into that place in history--the first constitutional amendment ratified by a "Continental Congress of All People" ... but you could also see it as an ongoing sort of forking of something like the "wikipedia page" on what some specific term, say "technocracy" means, and how two parties might propagandize and change the meaning of such thing; to suit the more intelligent and wise times we now live in. For instance, we might once have had a "democracy" and a "democractic" party that had some Anarchist Cook Book version of the history of it ending in something like Snipes and Stallone's "DEMOLITION MAN." Just kidding, we all know "democracy" has everything to do with "d is cl ... and not th" ... to be the them that is the heart of the start of the first true democracy. At least the first one I've ever seen, in my old "to a republic" ... style. As it is you can play around with commenting and highlighting and annotating all the stuff I've written and begged and begged for comments on--while I work on layering the backend to to perma-store our ideas and comments on both a blockchain (probably a new one; now that i've worked a little with ethereum) with maybe some key-merkle-tree-walk-search stuff etched into the original Rinkeby ... and then of course distributed data in the "public owned and operated" IPFS. To be clear, I plan on rewriting the backend storage so that we will have a permanent record of all comments; all versions of whatever is being commented on; and changes/revisions to those documents--sort of turning the web into a massive instant "place of collaboration, discussion, and co-authoring" ... if you use the wonderful LEGO pieces that have been handed to us in ideas from places like me, lemma--dissenter, and of course hypothes.is who has brought you and i such a polished and nice to look at "first draft" of something like the living Constitution come repository of all human knowledge.

I write as I dream, and though I cannot for certain explain exactly how; it's become a strong part of my mythology that this spectacular rendition of "what ends the silence" has something to do with the magical delivery of "a book" ... something not of this Earth but an unnatural thing; one I've dreamt of creating many times. This book is something like the DSM-IV and something like a Merck diagnostic manual; but rather than the old antiquated cures of "the Norse Medgard" this spectacle nearly "itsimportant" autoprints itself and lands on something like every doorpost; what it is is a list of reasons why "simply curing all disease" with no explanation and no conversation would be a travesty of morality--how it would render us half-blind to the myriad of new solutions that can come from truly understanding why "ITIS" to me has become a kind of magical marker: an "it is special" as in, it's cure could possibly solve a number of other problems. Through that missing "o," English on the ball, we see a connection between a number of words that shine bright light including Exodus itself which means "let there be light," the word for Holy Fire and the Burning Bush.. .reversed to hSE'Ah, and a story about the Second Coming parting our holy waters. This answer connects the magical Rod's of Aaron in Exodus and the Iron Rod of Jesus Christ to the Sang Rael itself... in a fusion that explains how the Periodic Table element for Iron links not just to Total Recall and Mars, but also to this key my dream of what the first day of the Second Coming might be like; were the Rod of Christ... in the right hands.

There's a few "guesses" I've contemplated; that perhaps the Milky Way chart is a metal-cosmic or microcosmic map to the dawn of time in the galactic vision of ... just after the big bang; or it might tie to a map of something like the unthinkable--a civilization that became so powerful it was able to reverse the entropy of "cosmic expansion" and reverse the thing Asimov wrote of in "The Last Question" as the end of life and the ability to survive basically due to "heat loss."

Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is a scientist who researches the nature of sapience, including artificial intelligence. He and his team work to create a sentient computer; he predicts that such a computer will create a technological singularity, or in his words "Transcendence". His wife, Evelyn (played by Rebecca Hall), is also a scientist and helps him with his work. Following one of Will's presentations, an anti-technology terrorist group called "Revolutionary Independence From Technology" (R.I.F.T.) shoots Will with a polonium-laced bullet and carries out a series of synchronized attacks on A.I. laboratories across the country. Will is given no more than a month to live. In desperation, Evelyn comes up with a plan to upload Will's consciousness into the quantum computer that the project has developed.

Menelaus, in Greek mythology, king of Sparta and younger son of Atreus, king of Mycenae; the abduction of his wife, Helen, led to the Trojan War. During the war Menelaus served under his elder brother Agamemnon, the commander in chief of the Greek forces. When Phrontis, one of his crewmen, was killed, Menelaus delayed his voyage until the man had been buried, thus giving evidence of his strength of character. After the fall of Troy, Menelaus recovered Helen and brought her home. Menelaus was a prominent figure in the Iliad and the Odyssey, where he was promised a place in Elysium after his death because he was married to a daughter of Zeus. The poet Stesichorus (flourished 6th century BCE) introduced a refinement to the story that was used by Euripides in his play Helen: it was a phantom that was taken to Troy, while the real Helen went to Egypt, from where she was rescued by Menelaus after he had been wrecked on his way home from Troy and the phantom Helen had disappeared. https://www.britannica.com/topic/Menelaus-Greek-mythology This article is about the ancient Greek city.

Mycenae (Ancient Greek: Μυκῆναι or Μυκήνη, Mykēnē) is an archaeological site near Mykines in Argolis, north-eastern Peloponnese, Greece. It is located about 120 kilometres (75 miles) south-west of Athens; 11 kilometres (7 miles) north of Argos; and 48 kilometres (30 miles) south of Corinth. The site is 19 kilometres (12 miles) inland from the Saronic Gulf and built upon a hill rising 900 feet (274 metres) above sea level.[2] In the second millennium BC, Mycenae was one of the major centres of Greek civilization, a military stronghold which dominated much of southern Greece, Crete, the Cyclades and parts of southwest Anatolia. The period of Greek history from about 1600 BC to about 1100 BC is called Mycenaean in reference to Mycenae. At its peak in 1350 BC, the citadel and lower town had a population of 30,000 and an area of 32 hectares.[3] 3. Chew 2000, p. 220; Chapman 2005, p. 94: "...Thebes at 50 hectares, Mycenae at 32 hectares..." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clymene_(mythology) Melpomene (/mɛlˈpɒmɪniː/; Ancient Greek: Μελπομένη, romanized: Melpoménē, lit. 'to sing' or 'the one that is melodious'), initially the Muse of Chorus, she then became the Muse of Tragedy, for which she is best known now.[1] Her name was derived from the Greek verb melpô or melpomai meaning "to celebrate with dance and song." She is often represented with a tragic mask and wearing the cothurnus, boots traditionally worn by tragic actors. Often, she also holds a knife or club in one hand and the tragic mask in the other. Melpomene is the daughter of Zeus and Mnemosyne. Her sisters include Calliope (muse of epic poetry), Clio (muse of history), Euterpe (muse of lyrical poetry), Terpsichore (muse of dancing), Erato (muse of erotic poetry), Thalia (muse of comedy), Polyhymnia (muse of hymns), and Urania (muse of astronomy). She is also the mother of several of the Sirens, the divine handmaidens of Kore (Persephone/Proserpina) who were cursed by her mother, Demeter/Ceres, when they were unable to prevent the kidnapping of Kore (Persephone/Proserpina) by Hades/Pluto. In Greek and Latin poetry since Horace (d. 8 BCE), it was commonly auspicious to invoke Melpomene.[2] See also [AREXMACHINA] Muses in popular culture The Nine Muses Flagstaff (/ˈflæɡ.stæf/ FLAG-staf;[6] Navajo: Kinłání Dookʼoʼoosłííd Biyaagi, Navajo pronunciation: [kʰɪ̀nɬɑ́nɪ́ tòːkʼòʔòːsɬít pɪ̀jɑ̀ːkɪ̀]) is a city in, and the county seat of, Coconino County in northern Arizona, in the southwestern United States. In 2018, the city's estimated population was 73,964. Flagstaff's combined metropolitan area has an estimated population of 139,097. Flagstaff lies near the southwestern edge of the Colorado Plateau and within the San Francisco volcanic field, along the western side of the largest contiguous ponderosa pine forest in the continental United States. The city sits at around 7,000 feet (2,100 m) and is next to Mount Elden, just south of the San Francisco Peaks, the highest mountain range in the state of Arizona. Humphreys Peak, the highest point in Arizona at 12,633 feet (3,851 m), is about 10 miles (16 km) north of Flagstaff in Kachina Peaks Wilderness. The geology of the Flagstaff area includes exposed rock from the Mesozoic and Paleozoic eras, with Moenkopi Formation red sandstone having once been quarried in the city; many of the historic downtown buildings were constructed with it. The Rio de Flag river runs through the city. Originally settled by the pre-Columbian native Sinagua people, the area of Flagstaff has fertile land from volcanic ash after eruptions in the 11th century. It was first settled as the present-day city in 1876. Local businessmen lobbied for Route 66 to pass through the city, which it did, turning the local industry from lumber to tourism and developing downtown Flagstaff. In 1930, Pluto was discovered from Flagstaff. The city developed further through to the end of the 1960s, with various observatories also used to choose Moon landing sites for the Apollo missions. Through the 1970s and '80s, downtown fell into disrepair, but was revitalized with a major cultural heritage project in the 1990s. The city remains an important distribution hub for companies such as Nestlé Purina PetCare, and is home to the U.S. Naval Observatory Flagstaff Station, the United States Geological Survey Flagstaff Station, and Northern Arizona University. Flagstaff has a strong tourism sector, due to its proximity to Grand Canyon National Park, Oak Creek Canyon, the Arizona Snowbowl, Meteor Crater, and Historic Route 66. #PSANSDISL #LWDISP either without gas or seeing cupidic arroz in "thank you" or "allta, wild" ... pps: a magnanimous decision ... I stand here on the brink of what appears to be total destruction; at least of everything I had hoped and dreamed for ... for the last decade in my life which appears literally to span thousands of years if not more in the eyes of some other beholder. I spent several months in Kentucky telling a story of a post apocalyptic and post-cataclysmic delusion; some world where I was walking around in a "fake plane" something like a holodeck built and constructed around me as I "took a walk around the world" to ... it did anything but ease my troubled mind. Recently a few weeks in Las Vegas, and a similar story; telling as I walked penniless down the streets filled with casino's and anachronistic taxi-cabs ... some kind of vision of the entirety of the heavens or the Earth or the "choir of angels" I think of when I echo the words Elohim and Aesir from mythology ... there with me in one small city in superposition; seeing what was a very well put together and interesting story about a "star port" Nirvane ... a place that could build cities into the face of mountains and half working monorails appearing in the sky---literally right before my eyes. I suppose this is the place "post cataclysm" though I still have trouble understanding what it is that's actually about ... in my mind it connects to the words "we are losing habeas" echo'ed from the streets of Los Angeles in a more clear and more military voice than usual--as I walked block by block trying to evade a series of events that would eventually somehow connect all the way to the "outskirts of Orlando, Florida" in a place called Alhambra. Apparently the name of a castle; though I wasn't aware of that until much later. It doesn't feel at all like a "cataclysm" to me; I see no great rift--only a world filled with silent liars, people who collectively believe themselves to have stolen something--something gigantic--at least that's the best interpretation of the throws and impetus behind the thing that I and mythology together call Jormungandr. With an eye for "mythological connections" you could clearly see that name of the Great Serpent of Revelation connects to something like the Unseelie; the faeries of Gaelic lore. To me though this world seems still somewhat fluid, it's my entire life--moving from Plantation to a place where the whole of it might be Bethlehem and to "clear my throat" it's not hard to see here how that land of "coughs" connects to the Biblical land of Nod and to the "Adamically sieved" Snifleheim ... from just a little twist on the ancient Norse land most probably as close to Hel as anyone ever gets--or so I dream and hope---still today. It all looks so real and so fake at the same time; planned for thousands of generations, the culmination of some grand masterpiece story that certainly ties history and myth and reality into a twisted heap of "one big nothing, one big nothing at all." I've tried to convey to the world how important I believe this place and this time to be--not by some choice of my own ... but through an understanding of the import of our history and the impact of having it be so obviously tuned and geared towards this specific time ... many thousands of years literally all focused on a single moment, on one day or one hour or even just a few years where all of that gets thrown down on the table as if some trump card has been played--and whether or not you fathom the same magnanimous statement or situation or position ... to me, I think it depends on whether or not you grew up in the same kind of way, believing our history to be so fixed and so difficult to change. I don't particularly feel like that's the "zeitgeist" of today; I feel like the children believe it to be some kind of game, and that it is such as easy thing to "sed" away or switch and turn into something else--another story, another purpose ... anyone's personal fantasy land come true. I don't think that's the case at all, it's clearly a personal nightmare; and it's clearly one we've seen time and time again--though not myself--the Jesus Christ that is the same yesterday, today; and once again perhaps echoing "no tomorrow" never remembers or believes that we've "seen it all before" or that we've ever really gotten the point; the thing you present to me as "factual reality" is a sickness, it disgusts me; and I'd do anything to go back to the world "where I was so young, and so innocent" and so filled with starry-eyed hope that we were at the foot of something grand and amazing that would become an empire turned republic of the heavens; filling the stars ... with the kind of love for kindness and fairness that I once associated very strongly with the thing I still believe to be the American Spirit. "Suddenly it changes, violently it changes" ... another song echoes through the ages--like the "words of the prophets dancing ((as light)) through the air" ... and I no longer even have a glimmer of hope that the thing I called the American People still exist; I feel we've been replaced by some broken container of minds, that the sky itself has become corrupt to the point that there's no hope of turning around this thing that I once believed with all my heart and all my mind was so obviously a "designed downward spiral" one that was---again--so obviously something of a joke, intended to be easy to bounce off a false bottom and springboard beyond "escape velocity" and beyond the dark waters of "nearest habitable star systems (being so very far away)" into a place where new words and new ideas would "soar" and "take flight." Here though; I am filled with a kind of lonely sadness ... staring at what appears to be the same mistake(s) happening over and over again; something I've come to call "skipping stones in the pond of reality" and really do liken it to this thing that appears to be the new meaning of "days" and ... a civilization that spends absolutely no love or lust to enter a once sacred and holy place and tarnish it with their sick beliefs and their disgusting desires. You all ... you appear to be some kind of springboard to "bunt" forth yet another age or era of nothingness into the space between this planet and "none worth reaching" and thank God, out of grasp. Today, I'd condemn the entirety of this world simply for it's lack of "oathkeepers" and understanding of what the once hallowed words of Hippocrates meant to ... to the people charged and dharmically required to heal rather than harm. It appears the place and time that was once ... at least destined to be the beginning of Heaven ... has become a "recurring stump" of some future unplanned and tarnished by many previous failed efforts and attempts to overcome this same "lack of conversation or care" for what it meant to be "humane" in a world where that was clearly set high aloft and above "humanity" in the place where they--where we were the best nature had to offer, the sanest, the kindest; the shining last best hope. Today I write almost every day ... secretly thanking "my God" for the disappearance of my tears and the still small but bright hope that "Tearran" will one day connect the Boston Tea Party and the idea that "render to Caesar" and Robin of Loxley ... all have something to do with a re-ordering of society and the worth and import of "money" ... to a place that cares more for freedom from murder than it does ... "freedom from having to allow others to hear me speak." I hold back tears and emotions; not by conscious choice or ability but ... still with that strange kind of lucky awkward smile; and secretly not so far below the surface it's the hope of "a swift death" that ... that really scares me more than the automatons and mechanical responses I see in the faces of many drivers as they pass me on the street--the imagery of connecting it to the serpentine monster of the movie Beetlejuice ... something I just "assume" the world understands and ... doesn't seem to fear (either); as if Churchill had gotten it all wrong and backwards--the only thing you have to fear, is the loss of fear of "loss." Here my crossroads---halfway between the city my son lives in and the city my parents live in--it's on making a decision on whether I should continue at all, or personally work on some kind of software project I've been writing about, or whether I should focus on writing about a "revolution" in government and society that clearly is ... "somewhat underway." In my mind it's obvious these things are all connected; that the software and the governance and the care of whether or not "Babylon" is remembered as a city of great laws and great change or a city of demons and depravity ... that these thi]ngs all hinge and congeal around a change in your hearts; hoping you will chose to be the beginning of a renaissance of "society and civilization" rather than the kings and queens of a sick virtual anarchy ... believing yourselves to have stolen "a throne of God" rather than to literally be the devastating and demoralizing depreciation of "lords and fiefdoms" to something more closely resembled by the time of the Four Horsemen depicted in Highlander. These words intended to be a "forward" to yet another compliment of a ((nother installment of a partial)) chain of emails; whimsically once half-joking ... I called it the Great Chain of Revelation. The software too; part of the great chain, this "idea" that the blockchain revolution will eventually create a distributed and equal governance structure, and a rekindling of monetary value focused on "free and open collaboration" rather than "survival of the most unfit"--something society and civilization seem to have turned the "call of life" from and to ... literally just in the last few years as we were so very close to ... reaching beyond the Heaven(s). I don't think its hard to imagine how a "new set of ground rules" could significantly change the "face of a place" -- make it something shiny and new or even on the other side of the coin, decayed or depraved. It's not hard to connect the kind of change I'm hoping for with "collision protection" and "automatic laws" to the (perhaps new, perhaps ... ancient) Norse creation story of the brothers of Odin: Vili and Ve. It might be hard to see today how a new "kind of spiritual interaction" might be only a few "mouse clicks" away though--how it could change everything literally in a flash of overnight sensation ... or how it might take something like a literal flash of stardom (or ... on the other hand, something like totalitarian or authoritarian "iron fisting") to make a change like this "ubiquitious" or ... something like the (imagined in my mind as ... messianic) "ED" of storming through the cosmos or the heavens and turning something that might appear to be "free and perfect feeling" today into a universe "civlized overnight" and then ... I wonder how long it would take to laud a change like that; for it to be something of a voluntary "reunderstanding" of a process ... to change the meaning of every word or every thought that connects to the process of "civilization" to recognize that something so great and so powerful has happened as to literally change the meaning of the word, to turn a process of civilization into something that had a ... "signta-lamcla☮" of forboding and then a magical staff struck into the heart of a sea and then ... and then the word itself literally changes to introduce a new "mid term" or "halfway point" in which a great singularity or enlightenment or change in perspective or understanding sort of acknowledges ... that some "clear outside" force not only intervened on the behalf of the future and the people of our world but that it was uniquely involved in the whole of-- "waking up" tio a nu def of #Neopoliteran. ^Like the previous notation; the below text comes from an email previously sent; and while i stand behind things like my sanity, my words; and my continued and faithful attempt to speak and convey both a useful and helpful truth to the world---sometimes just a single day can make all the difference in the world.

I saw "Ashkenazi" and ... know I am one of those ... and I kind of understood that something horrible might have happened, or might happen here--and I kind of understand that crying smashing feeling of "to ash" that echoes through the ages in the potpourri songs about pockets full of Parker Posey .. and ancient Psalms about "from the ashes of Edom" we have come--and from that you can see the cyclical sickness of this ... place so sure it's "East of Eden" and yet gung-ho on barrelling down the same old path towards ash and towards Edom and towards ... more of Dave's "ashes to ashes dust to dust" and his "smoke clouds roll and symphony of death..." and few words of solace in a song called Recently that I imagine was fleeting and has recently come and gone--people stare, I can't ignore the sick I see.

"no, not me ... I'm nothing like a king, no dreams of authoritarianism at all in the heart of Kish@r;" even as I wrote words that in the spirit of the moment were something of a "tis of a'we" that connected to my country and the first sing-songy "tisME" that I linked to trying to talk in the rhyming spirit of some "first Christ" that probably just like me was one limmerick away from the end of the rainbow and one "Four Non Blondes" song away from tying "or whatever that means" and this land crowned with "brotherhood" (to some personal "of the Bell, and of the bell towers so tall and Crestian") to just one Hopp skip and jump away from the heart of the obvious echoes of a bridge between haiku and Heroku... a few more gears shift into place, a click and and a mechanical turn of the face of the clock's ku-ku striking ... it was the word "Earthene" that was the last "Jesusism" around the post Cimmerian time linking Dionysus and Seuss to that same "su-s" that's belonging to a moment in the city of Uranus--codified and etched in stone as "MCO"--not just for its saucer and warp nacelles and "deflector dish" but for it's underground caverns and it's above ground "Space Mountain" and that great golf ball in the heart of it all.

I'm still so far from "Five Finger Death Punch" though; and so far from Rammstein and so far from any kind of sick events that could stand between me and "the eternal" and change my still "casual alternative rock" loving heart to something more death metal; I rue whatever lies between me and there being any kind of Heaven that thinks there could exist a "righteous side" of Hell and it... simultaneously. I still see light here in admonishing the masses and the angels standing against the story and the message God brings us in our history. I still see sparks in siding with the "causticness" of "no holodecks in sight" and the hunger and the pain of simulating ... "the hells of reality" over the story of decades or centuries of silence refusing to see "holography" and "simulated" in the word Holocaust and the horrors of this place that simply doesn't seem to fathom or understand the moments of hunger pangs and the fear of "dark Earth pits" or towers of "it's not Nintendo-DS" linking the Man in the High Castle to an Iron Mask. I rally against being what I clearly am raised high on some pedestal by some force beyond my comprehension and probably beyond that of the "perfect storm in time" that refuses to itself acknowledge what it means to gaze at such an unfathomable loss of innocence at the cost of a "happy and serene future" or even at the glimmer of the Never-Never-Land I'd hoped we would all cherish and love and share ... the games and the newfound freedom that comes not just from "seeing Holodeck" turn into "no bullets" and "no cages" but into a world that grows and flourishes into something that's so far beyond my capability to understand that I'm stuck here; dumbfounded; staring at you refusing to stop car accidents and school shootings ... because "pedestal."

Two years later, they were more likely to suffer from depression, social phobias and anxiety than those who played video games less often. In the study, the few heavy gamers who stopped playing so much tended to show fewer symptoms of depression.

Young people who were more impulsive, more socially inept and less empathetic to begin with were more likely to become excessive video game players.

Then we had to convert the format of our articles before importing them to Voyant. Since the newspaper issues from my school, The Amherst Student, were in PDF format, I had to extract specific articles and save them in Word format. This was extremely time consuming because when I pasted content from PDF files into a Word document, the original formatting changed. Some words and paragraphs simply went missing, and I had to manually type them. I wonder if there is automated text extraction software designed specifically for old newspapers and/or manuscripts.

The astronauts in orbit would be of great value stepping in much as in the “Game of Civilization” to control rovers on the surface that face issues they can’t resolve through their own autonomy and impacted by the long round trip time for control from Earth. By then we likely have hundreds or even thousands of landers for them to use to explore Mars and they can “teleport” from one to another and this would lead to a far more interesting and varied experience for the astronauts too, with telepresence avatars on the surface. We see with the ISS how interesting it can be to orbit a planet. In this vision the surface assets on Mars are dual purpose, and we don't land any habitats there until we know if it will be biologically safe to land humans. This avoids the issue of stranded assets of unusable human habitats on a mirror-life Mars. We can still do things like rovers that use in situ production of fuel on Mars since this is dual purpose and such rovers can be useful for rapid in situ exploration so long as they can be 100% sterilized as they likely can be. But the experiments in human habitation would be done in orbit and on the Martian moons. We keep everything dual purpose until we know if humans can land on Mars and knowing that a possible answer here is "no" depending on what we find on Mars. If we find somethign as interesting as a mirror life planet on Mars, life independently evolved from mirror organics, this would envigorate human space exploration not be a dampener on it, with numerous other places in the solar system humans can explore. NASA themselves don't see Mars as a final goal for humans in space but as a staging post to the rest of the solar system. If we find unsafe biology on Mars it can still be a stimulus leading to a permanent presence in orbit around Mars and likely to a settlement there which could use surface assets too, but remotely from orbit because it is not safe to land there.

The length and scope of this research project provides many perspectives forreflection and critique. By utilizing mixed methods approach we have tried to studythe phenomenon from different perspectives in an exploratory manner. While thisapproach has provided certain breadth for our design knowledge findings, focusingmore on certain methods (e.g. interviews) could have provided deeper understanding.The game examples used in the workshops have most probably guided the discussionto certain areas while neglecting others and although there were also full dayworkshops, it seemed there could always be more time to play, analyse, and designgames with industry experts and academic scholars. Nevertheless, we consider ourapproach feasible, providing more questions and opportunities to study the design ofhybrid board games more deeply.

The digital element should be a well-designed part of the game. This often works bestif it is designed into the game from the beginning, but even if it is added later itshould be justified part of the overall game experience. Adding a poorly designedhybrid element often does not bring the desired added value.

In hybrid games, the physical and digital element can also be asynchronous andindependent of each other (Tyni et al. 2013). Players can for example practice playstrategies on digital adaptations of board games and bring the learned strategies toplay when engaging with the physical version of the game

Tangible physical objects are easy to grasp and use. Handling physical objects cangive players a feeling of ownership over what happens in the game, for example as aresult of a die roll or by picking a card from a player’s hand. Physical game piecesalso allow players to fiddle with them between turns, which can keep them moreengaged with the game and offers material pleasure. Physical elements also offeraesthetic pleasure to the players and are often in the center of attention

Players also like coming up with houserules, for example to suit their style of play, or to fix design flaws in the game. Assuch, the digital elements should not restrict this flexibility too much.

 Presence – acknowledging that there are other players or spectators(tele)present in the same physical space or over the network. Communication – the possibility of communicating through the game (text,voice, emoji, gestures etc.) either publicly or privately. Interaction – conflict and cooperation through gameplay mechanics

The possibility to customize their game experience provides ownership for theplayers.

Digital elements make it possible to add new features in the hybrid board game later.Like video games, HBGs could be updated as time goes by.

Digital applications often have shorter life spans than physical board games. Part ofthe charm of board games is that the player can dig out an old game from the attic andplay it even after decades.

In analog board games, missing game pieces can be replaced with relative ease. Withdigital elements there is a danger that the game is not playable if the application doesnot work under certain conditions

Utilizing existing technology like personal devices makes the game more accessible.Rather than designing new technology just for the game, it could be more feasible touse existing technology and utilize it in a novel way.

It is plausible that the digital application or technology in general used by the gamewill fail at some point. The game should be able to recover from such errors quicklyand gracefully. Whether it is a network connection problem or crashing of theapplication, the players should be able to continue playing without losing the gamestate. Another perspective is to use the failure as a game mechanic and exploit thesituation for the benefit of game experience.

Utilize all audiovisual possibilities. Different game events can have images, video,music or sound effects attached.

Arduous and boring tasks can be automated. Bookkeeping can be error prone, timeconsuming, and boring, but an application can take care of it faster and moreaccurately. The digital element can be used to replace a human game master, lettingall the players play together against the game.

The role of digital elements is to enrich the game experience. The hybrid board gameshould provide added value that is meaningful for the players. There are several waysto utilize this guideline:1. Exchange an analog component for a digital component2. Expand the game with digital features3. Extend some non-digital feature with digital one

A familiartheme or brand can help a new player to get over the threshold created by unfamiliartechnology. On the other hand, tangible elements are good at communicating thegame state, and familiar board game elements can lower the threshold of entry formany

The organ starts playing and everyone begins to sing “Take Me Out to the Ball Game.” While singing the song, putting my arms around friends and family with me, I watch all the players taking the field. It is wonderful to see the overwhelming amount of players on one team from around the world: Japan, the Dominican Republic, the United States, Canada, and Venezuela. I cannot help but feel a bit of national pride at this realization. Seeing the international representation on the field reminds me of the ways that Americans, though from many different backgrounds and places, still come together under common ideals. For these reasons and for the whole experience in general, going to a Major League Baseball game is the perfect way to glimpse a slice of Americana.

Few tastes are as American as hot dogs and soda pop, and they cannot be missed at a ball game. The smell of hot dogs carries through the park, down every aisle, and inside every concourse. They are always as unhealthy as possible, dripping in grease, while the buns are soft and always too small for the dog. The best way to wash down the Ball Park Frank is with a large soda pop, so I order both. Doing my best to balance the cold pop in one hand and the wrapped-up dog in the other, I find the nearest condiments stand to load up my hot dog. A dollop of bright green relish and chopped onions, along with two squirts of the ketchup and mustard complete the dog. As I continue the balancing act between the loaded hot dog and pop back to my seat,

Matt Stone, quoted in Anatomy of a Breakthrough: “What should happen between every beat you’ve written down is either the word therefore or but.” He sketches the structure using a more concrete example: “You come up with an idea, and it’s like this happens’ and then ‘this happens… .’ No, no, no. It should be, this happens, and therefore this happens, but this happens, therefore this happens. We’ll write it out to make sure we’re doing it.” Stone continues, “There are so many scripts we see from new writers, where it’s like ‘this happens, and then this happens, and then this happens…,’ and that’s when you’re, like, ‘What the fuck am I watching this for?’”

Prior to TikTok, I would’ve said YouTube had the strongest exploit algorithm in video,The exploit versus explore conundrum is sort of a classic of algorithmic design, usually mentioned in relation to the multi-armed bandit problem. For the purposes of this discussion, think of it simply as the problem of choosing which videos to show you. An exploit algorithm will give you more of what you like, while an explore algorithm tries to broaden your exposure to more than just what you’ve shown you like. YouTube is often described as an exploit algorithm because it tends to really push more of what you like, and then before you know it, you’re looking at some alt-right video that’s trying to redpill you. but in comparison to TikTok, YouTube’s algorithm feels primitive (the top creators on YouTube have long ago figured out how to game YouTube’s algorithm’s heavy dependence on click-through rates and watch time, one reason so many YouTube videos are lengthening over time, much to my dismay).

I really feel the game is a strong 9 but I’m giving it a 10 to offset the trolls.

In “Education Unleashed,” Cory Ondrejka uses the history of virtual worlds as a context forbuilding an argument around the role new technology is playing in defining when, where,and how kids learn. Chief Technology Officer for Linden Lab (the creators of Second Life),Ondrejka is an unapologetic advocate for the use of virtual worlds as a building block of thefuture of learning. Connecting the cost of learning to innovation and knowledge creation,he suggests that it is the lower cost of learning in virtual worlds that is transformative. “Forthe first time, geography is not the primary determining factor in who can learn together orwho can teach” (p. 243)

When we don’t think certain messages meet our needs, stimuli that would normally get our attention may be completely lost. Imagine you are in the grocery store and you hear someone say your name. You turn around, only to hear that person say, “Finally! I said your name three times. I thought you forgot who I was!” A few seconds before, when you were focused on figuring out which kind of orange juice to get, you were attending to the various pulp options to the point that you tuned other stimuli out, even something as familiar as the sound of someone calling your name.

Some of these shows were excellent. But enough of them were not excellent that it started to seem as if making good art was not necessarily the aim of the people who made shows like these. The real aim was to deploy the external trappings of good art in a bid to capture the rewards that go to people who make good art: the Emmys and the New Yorker profiles and the high cultural status. Art wasn’t the point; prestige—that word, again—was. Talking about “prestige TV” rather than good TV became a way to take the thorny question of aesthetic value out of the conversation. It was a way to sidestep difficult political discussions about representation and genre and how we distribute cultural spoils. But the faint derisiveness of the term also seemed to mark its user as more in the know, hipper, less naive about human motives. It was a way to talk about art that showed you weren’t enough of a sap to think art was really the goal. It showed you understood that the only things people really care about are gossip and money. And I think that’s why I feel a little queasy about the term “prestige TV.” It seems to contain its own quiet cynicism. It’s so dismissive of the artistic potential of the medium of television, something I’d very much like writers and showrunners to go on believing in.

college students engage with and consume more content than at any time in history. It just so happens that this content is delivered by a streaming service, video game or social media platform, not by a college instructor.

Let me say a word about video games, a field towhich I have contributed, and then continue on towhat I see as some already-shared themes. After theseintroductory remarks I will discuss the emerged andemerging fields I mentioned above, and then pro-pose a way to achieve the commonality needed forcollaboration and the accumulation of knowledgeto strengthen what has been, to date, a vibrant yetnascent field at the intersection of digital media andlearning.

People learn a given way of reading or writing byparticipating in (or at least coming to understand) thedistinctive social and cultural practices of differentsocial and cultural groups. When these groups teachor “apprentice” people to read and write in certainways, they never stop there. They teach them to act,interact, talk, know, believe, and value in certain waysas well, ways that “go with” how they write and read(Gee 1990/1996/2007).So, for example, knowing how to write a “gameFAQ” (a strategy guide for a video game)—or how toread one—requires that you know how game FAQs areused in the social practices of gamers, practices thatinvolve a lot more than just reading and writing. Youneed to know how gamers talk about, debate over, andact in regard to such things as “spoilers” and “cheats”and “cheating,” all defined as gamers define them, notjust in general terms (Consalvo 2007).

This was convergent development. Videogames are largely just problem-solving spaces and ifpeople found them difficult to learn or unengaging,the companies that make them would go out of busi-ness. So it is perhaps not surprising that game design-ers have hit on—and even innovated—many of thelearning principles that contemporary research in theLearning Sciences has argued work for deep and effec-tive human learning

What I also find interesting is that, unlike many other games, the player gets to choose their dialogues and the memories they want to pass on.

I have kept the synopsis brief.

Upon discovering his true identity and realizing the fact that it is the last ‘human’ to still possess the memories of humanity’s past, B-12 takes it upon itself to keep the memory of humans alive by liberating the robots and sharing its knowledge with them. As such, the game requires that you help the drone/scientist. This goes to show that even in this virtual, post-apocalyptic setting, “traditional Humanism is ever persistent” (Solberg 2021, 3). Indeed, even as a cat, the player is expected to ‘save’ humanity in a world where humans no longer exist.

Disclaimer: Since I have not played the game, I have kept the synopsis brief.

One example of this would be in the Grand Theft Auto series. Though I have never played a single game from the series, I have heard quite a few things about it, and how the female characters in the game merely serve as eye candy.

Even though Muslim Massacre was banned, it still reflects, what Amanda Phillips calls mechropolitics, meaning the recreation of real politics of death in the digital world (Mayar 2021, 4). As such, these ‘others’ are merely used to fulfill a project, whether it be in the digital or the real world.

Researchers analyzed the best players’ results for their research and were able to publish scientific discoveries based on the contributions of players.

Have you experienced a flurry of emotions or rush of adrenalin when you’ve observed someone else engaged in an activity?

When tasks are done through large groups of people making relatively small contributions, this is called crowdsourcing. The people making the contributions generally come from a crowd of people that aren’t necessarily tied to the task (e.g., all internet users can edit Wikipedia), but then people from the crowd either get chosen to participate, or volunteer themselves.

However, what about if the agents also care about each others’ wellbeing, or share a common goal? We call these ‘shared aims’ communities. The effective altruism community is an example, because at least to some degree, everyone in the community cares about the common goal of social impact, and our definitions of this overlap to some degree. Likewise, environmentalists want to protect the environment, feminists want to promote women’s rights, and so on. How might cooperation be different in these cases?This is a question that has received little research. Most research on coordination in economics, game theory and computer science, has focused on selfish agents. Our speculation, however, is that shared aims communities have the potential to achieve a significantly greater degree of cooperation.

And people who put videos on YouTube, why do they do that? Well, it’s wanting to be helpful. And it’s a desire for fame, or at least recognition. It feels good to have “numbers”, by which I mean an indication that people have seen a thing you have done and an indication they approved. And YouTube pays money. Usually small amounts of money, but enough that I know people who make a living that way. And even if YouTube itself doesn’t give you enough money to live on, getting popular on YouTube, being known - that leads to other ways of making money, like a Patreon, or commercial sponsorships for videos. But really the money is less in providing a useful service, like putting out a video showing how to beat a game, and more in providing a simulacrum of that sense of community that people like. Viewers watch at home, by themselves, but they feel like they are with someone charming and friendly and it gives them a sense of being with a friend. The term for this is “parasocial relationships”, and it’s really where the money is in terms of making “content” online.

One such issue is the conception of history not as an academicor exclusive field of study (what Rosenstone famously terms “History witha capital H”3) but as “the past,” a more inclusive and inviting concept thatembraces all aspects of our history and implicitly refers to its relationshipto the present. Another important term is, of course, “playing,” whichhas largely been replaced in Game Studies with the more technical term“ludic.” That term, from the Latin ludus, has come to mean “play,” and wechoose to use it this way even though it also carries with it the implicationof spontaneous or aimless play that does not fit neatly with the notion ofplaying the “historical games” studies here. However, we use the term sinceit recognizes both the ludic nature of digital games—the sense that gamesare not designed as artifacts only to be looked at or understood narrativelylike films or television, but to be played, thus their ludic nature obliges us tounderstand them differently—but it also recognizes the importance of play asa human activity, which according to Huizinga, has the ability to “promote theformation of social groupings,”4 and which Suits, building on Caillois, suggestsas being “the voluntary effort to overcome unnecessary obstacles.”5 It is thisconception of play—and that built up in later studies of ludology—which is ofsignificance to our understanding of engagement with history.

Right. So what do you see in a class, when this is working, when the students are reading and engaging before class. What registers for you as the instructor. What Viranga P.do you see? Changing. Well, kind of posing questions. During lecture, you get responses that say, oh, they understood the basics, right. If I ask a basic kind of question because it's a game of throw a question. See where they're at throw another question. Maybe that's a little bit more difficult seeing where they are and when they're reading. We're already a step ahead. Right. Clearly. And so then. What we can do is solve problems that are a little bit more difficult and get into the real world applications. Because now you know the basics. Now we'll talk about what's this mean. What is this for? Right. And. It's also the questions that come back right. Like during a lecture. The type of questions that a student is asking. Shows their understanding. Right. So sometimes that's an important thing. Your level of understanding. You can display that by the type of questions you're asking. If you have very high understanding the type of questions you're asking are very high level questions. If you don't know what is the moon made out of, you're going to ask, what is the moon made out of? Right. But the person who knows what the moon is made out of. That person is going to ask what type of minerals. Are the music made out of. How the density structure inside those are the questions that a person who knows something about it is going to ask. Right. So the types of questions are coming my way. Sometimes it trips me Jeremy D.up and go, Viranga P.oh, wait. That's a good question. I don't know the answer to that which is exactly. That's okay. Right. And so that's what I'm seeing with the readings. And so that's why. I want to keep doing that because. Even though they might start off very kind of hesitant. I don't want to read it's annoying. It's too long. I think at the end of the day, they're realizing it's good. It works for them. It's to their
