The Beauties of Nature

It was a good year for hydrangeas; a good year for mums too.  I created the seamless background tile from the chrysanthemums.  If you should see any Japanese writing, it means: the beauties of nature.

Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Rob Kirby on Treasury Of Mini Comics Vol. 1. Domingos Isabellinho on Pim & Francie. Kevin Huizenga on Couch Tag.

* not comics: it's funny, and maybe I'm reading it wrong, but this Megan McArdle article that says collapse of print isn't due in part to lack of production from journalists kind of makes the opposite point to my mind. It's not that people like me that think this believe that journalists aren't technology advantaged over the Woodward/Bernstein era, it's that they're not expected to produce content according to those advantages.

* Rob McMonigal talks to Alex De Campi.

* Sonia Harris on guilty pleasures. I'm not sure that we've all the way figured out just how different comics reading is right now for the reduction in stigma regarding their consumption.

* Kathleen David is one of my favorite bloggers about the fan communities that kind of bump up against the world of comics, and about living in a household with comics at its center. She strikes me as a very nice person. A few of you sent along this long post of hers about Ed Kramer and the resolution to his legal matters, which kind of acts as a general marking-out of the difficult emotional landscape involved for a lot of people there. I'm glad there's a resolution; I do think there were some extremely odd values on display at different times from different quarters through the whole controversy, but I'm glad for the folks closest to it not Kramer that they have a chance to move on.

* not comics: the cartoonist Diana Tamblyn has been contacted enough times by media sources for quotes on female representation in superhero movies that she finally wrote a lot of those thoughts down into one place.

* Jamaal Thomas writes about the comic book format, specifically the idea of intermittent purchases as opposed to systematic purchasing.

* finally, I never know which of these things is viewable by the public and which ones aren't, so apologies in advance, but Laura Park has a cool-looking studio.

Intangible, Perceived Value Illustrated

If you’re not convinced that perception of intangible value drives consumer behavior, you must watch a wonderfully entertaining TED presentation by Roy Sutherland, a British advertising pro. Be sure to stay tuned to the end, when he shows an enlightening case study featuring a new ad campaign for Shreddies® cereal (a product found only in Canada, Australia and New Zealand).

The consumer research is especially entertaining as well as instructive about how we really make choices. It’s an example of
“priming” at its best! Watch the TED presentation here:

Phil Doublet

To hear Phil Doublet play guitar is a memorable experience.

Awarded Male Artist of the Year in 2014, Phil has honed his skills over more than 30 years.

In concert, in the studio or just jamming around at home. Phil is one of that rare group of restless, artistic spirits who cannot sit around without either tapping his hands, feet, or grabbing a musical instrument from a corner and jamming out a tune. It is this very spirit that drives such people to be consummate experts of their instruments.

Phil’s music has taken him to venues both nationally and internationally, most recently being the 2014 Tamworth Country Music festival.

Phil has amassed a plethora of accolades through the years both as an instrumentalist and vocalist.

And with a release of his debut album “Stone & Wood”. He’s not to be missed.

About Child Support Offices

Do Child Support Offices provide services regarding child custody, visitation rights, or payment of alimony?

Child Support Offices typically do not get involved in child custody or visitation rights. In some cases, the Child Support Office may be involved in collection of alimony if it is included as part of the child support order.

Is there a fee for the services provided by Child Support Offices?

Clients that are on certain assistance programs, such as TANF or Medicaid, do not have to pay a fee for child support services. States are permitted to charge other clients a fee of up to $25 for child support services. In some states and counties, legal expenses and other charges may also be added to the fee.

Does a child support order remain in effect if the non-custodial parent moves to another state?

Yes. The Uniform Interstate Family Support Act establishes procedures for enforcing child support orders when a non-custodial parent lives out of state.

About Colleges

Are there requirements for a College to be considered a University?

College and University are often used interchangeably, but they are distinct terms. Generally, a University must offer a minimum number of graduate programs, which must be separate from the undergraduate programs. The institution must also have an administrative structure for managing graduate programs. A University is typically organized into several Colleges, such as the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Engineering, or the College of Music.

Are accrediting authorities run by the government?

No. Accrediting authorities are independent organizations that are not government agencies. Although the government does not accredit Colleges, the U.S. Department of Education (USDOE) does recognize accrediting agencies. Recognition by the USDOE confers a degree of credibility to an accrediting agency.

What is a Technical College?

Technical Colleges tend to emphasize skill development and credentials that prepare students for a specific field or industry. Common fields of study in Technical Colleges include the sciences, engineering, and information technology.

About IRS Offices

Does the IRS set tax rates?

No. The IRS interprets, implements, and enforces the tax laws and rates that are adopted by the U.S. Congress and signed by the President. As part of the implementation of tax law, the IRS publishes the annual rate schedule listing the tax rate for each income bracket.

What is "Where's my refund?"

"Where's my refund?" is an online tool offered by the IRS that allows taxpayers to check the status of their tax refund. In order to use the tool, a taxpayer must enter their Social Security number, filing status, and the exact amount of the refund as shown on the tax return.

What should I do if I made a mistake on my tax filing?

It depends on the type of mistake. IRS employees can correct mathematical mistakes without the need to file an amended return. Mistakes in filing status, deductions, income, or credits require an amended return. The amended return should be filed using Form 1040X.

About Jails & Prisons

Do Prison inmates work?

Federal Prison inmates and some State Prison inmates are required to work unless they have a medical restriction. Inmates who are participating in educational or treatment programs, or inmates who are considered a security risk, may receive an exemption from work requirements.

How can victims of a crime learn when an inmate is being released?

Most states have a Victim Services Unit or similar agency that can provide information on the release of inmates. In some cases, a petitioner may also be notified of parole hearings.

What is Good Conduct Time?

Good Conduct Time refers to time that can be deducted from an inmate's sentence as a result of good behavior. Though the actual formula for calculating Good Conduct Time is complex, a commonly used rule of thumb is that a year of good behavior can reduce a sentence by roughly 54 days.

About Parks Departments

Are there fees for using parks?

Many programs and activities that are run by Parks Departments or take place at Parks Department facilities are fee-based. Many parks may be open to the public at no cost, though some heavily-trafficked parks may charge an entry or parking fee. State and federal parks that have campgrounds may also charge camping fees.

Are Parks Department programs and activities for residents only?

Parks Department programs and services are often limited to residents of the community. In some cases, Parks Departments may allow participation by non-residents, who must pay a higher fee. Use of public parks and passive recreation spaces is generally open to the public.

Are dogs allowed in public parks?

Local rules vary, but most public parks allow dogs. However, the vast majority of communities have leash laws that apply when bringing dogs to public parks.

About Parks Departments

Are there fees for using parks?

Many programs and activities that are run by Parks Departments or take place at Parks Department facilities are fee-based. Many parks may be open to the public at no cost, though some heavily-trafficked parks may charge an entry or parking fee. State and federal parks that have campgrounds may also charge camping fees.

Are Parks Department programs and activities for residents only?

Parks Department programs and services are often limited to residents of the community. In some cases, Parks Departments may allow participation by non-residents, who must pay a higher fee. Use of public parks and passive recreation spaces is generally open to the public.

Are dogs allowed in public parks?

Local rules vary, but most public parks allow dogs. However, the vast majority of communities have leash laws that apply when bringing dogs to public parks.

About Recorders Of Deeds

How can a name on a deed be changed, added, or deleted?

What is the cost of recording a deed?

The cost of recording a deed varies from one locality to the next. Typically, deed recording fees are based on the number of pages in the document, with a flat fee for the first page or two and an additional separate per page fee.

About Sheriff Departments

Do Sheriff's Departments issue restraining orders?

No. Restraining orders must be obtained through attorneys and the courts. After a restraining order is issued, a Sheriff's Department will typically serve, maintain, and enforce the order.

What is the difference between a Sheriff and a Marshal?

A Sheriff is usually an elected official responsible for the Sheriff's Department and all of the duties associated with the office. Marshals tend to have a more limited scope of responsibilities, such as providing court security or issuing subpoenas and warrants. A U.S. Marshal is a federal officer responsible for the security of federal courts and numerous other duties including the witness protection program.

Does the Sheriff's Department issue photo identification to citizens?

Some, but not all, Sheriff's Departments offer this service. In many states, the Department of Motor Vehicles issues photo identification cards for non-drivers.

About Unemployment Offices

How are unemployment benefits funded?

The funding for unemployment benefits comes from a combination of federal and state unemployment insurance taxes. The taxes are paid by employers, and they are based on the amount of wages paid to employees. Some government employers and non-profit organizations are exempt from unemployment insurance taxes.

What is the process for applying for unemployment benefits?

Applicants should file for benefits as soon as possible after becoming unemployed. Most states allow applicants to file claims both in person or using an online application, though a follow-up interview is almost always required. Applicants should be prepared to provide basic contact and identity verification documentation, as well as earnings history and an explanation of how they became unemployed.

Can people receive unemployment compensation if their work hours are reduced by their employer?

If an applicant's work hours are reduced to less than full-time through no fault of their own, they may be eligible for unemployment compensation. In these cases, the applicant may only be eligible for a partial benefit.

Giveaway: Elk Dresses

Have you heard of Elk Dresses?

They make cute and comfy (100% cotton jersey) dresses for the littlest girls (birth to 3T).

I spent some time browsing their Etsy shop (you can also keep up with them via their blog and on Facebook) and picked out a few of my favorites to share.

First of all, you KNOW how I love me some ruffle butts:

Look at all that ruffley goodness!

Are you loving gray and yellow together as much as I am right now?

And how do you feel about fluttery flowers?

I think I’ve save the best (or at least the most hilariously awesome) for last.

So, what’s in it for you?

Well, ALL of you can get 15% off anything in the Elk Dresses shop using code “CRAPPY”!

And, Elk Dresses is giving one lucky Crap I’ve Made reader a $25 shop credit!

Click on over to Elk Dresses on Etsy and have a look around. Come back and leave a comment ON THIST POST (on the blog, not on Facebook or email) saying what your favorite item in the shop is!

Giveaway will run through Friday at midnight MST.

Silhouette Dust Cover

***This dust cover is for the original Silhouette SD (which was THE ONLY Silhouette when I wrote this post).  I don’t have dust cover patterns for the CAMEO or the Portrait.***

So, you’ve taken advantage of one of the Silhouette deals and you’re LOVING your machine so much you can’t bear to put her in a drawer…what’s a girl to do?

Whip up a quick and easy dust cover, that’s what. And did I mention that you can make this out of a single fat quarter? ‘Cause you can!

Fat quarter
Silhouette Dust Cover pattern piece PDF (the bottom measurement will be 6 3/8″ when printed correctly)
Sewing machine with thread
About 15 minutes Winking smile

Turn your fat quarter so that one of the 18” ends is at the bottom. Cut off 14″ so you have a piece that is 18” wide and 14” high (the bottom piece in this picture).

Fold the top piece in half and cut out the pattern piece. You’ll have 2 opposite end pieces

Place the end pieces even with the bottom edge of your fabric so that the short end (of the end pieces) points out and start pinning.

Pin all the way around the end pieces and then sew with a 1/2” seam.

Then you’ll want to hem the bottom of the dust cover 1/2” all the way around. I folded and pressed a scant 1/4” and then another 1/4”. Stitch hem in place.

Put it on your Silhouette and feel much better about leaving her out to admire.

Peachy Chic Boutique Winner

The winner of the DIY watch kit with a watch face AND a DIY dangle kit with a chain ($35 value) from Peachy Chic Boutique is…

The Brown Paislee hat is really cute but I think the lime green lariat necklace tops it.

Shoot me an email to [email protected] to claim your prize!

BIG NEWS from Silhouette

I’ve gotten a TON of emails asking if the Silhouette can cut fabric.

Guess what?

It can now!

I haven’t tried it yet, but you KNOW I’m gonna.

Flickr/Facebook Feature Friday

Did you know Crap I’ve Made has a Flickr group? You can find the link at any time up on my menu bar under Crap You’ve Made. If it’s easier (because I’m all about the easy), you can post your pics to the Crap I’ve Made Facebook page, instead. Go add your stuff! Please?

Projects from the Flickr group and the Facebook page will be featured on Fridays.

I’m feeling festive today, so both features are Valentiney. And both were inspired by my Valentine’s Day Canvas Tutorial.

First up, we have Steph’s take on it:

She blogged about it here. I love the double stitching around the letters!

And then we have this canvas posted to the Facebook page by Gerica:

She wrapped the canvas in fabric instead of painting it and I LOVE it!

U of U Scripture Case

Remember how Keller turned 8 last week?

When you’re a Mormon, that’s kind of a big one. He’ll be getting baptized next weekend. He requested a sports jacket for the occasion (which made me pee my pants a little). He also got a new set of scriptures.

I made him this to haul them around in and hit his brother with:

I didn’t tutorialize for a couple of reasons:

1) I wasn’t sure if there were enough of you that would care to make it worth my while (since I know that many/most of you are not Mormons).

2) I had no idea what I was doing. Open-mouthed smile

So, now that it turned out quite nicely, I need to know if there’s enough interest to warrant a tutorial. Leave a comment if you want one and I’ll see what I can do.

Giveaway: Peachy Chic Boutique

Let me introduce you to Peachy Chic Boutique.

They sell DIY jewelry kits as well as ready to wear jewelry.

Do you love owls? How about this?

To make up for my suckyness this week, I’ll leave the giveaway open until bedtime Sunday night. I’d say that means you’re good until at least 9pm MST. Winking smile

My CWTS partner: Lindy @ Cottage Hill

So, projects for Round 1 (Dollar/Thrift store) of CWTS are due tonight. Voting opens in the morning. I’ll be sure to link you over when it’s time. And, I’m saying it…

My partner’s project is awesome!!!

Too bad I can’t give you any hints, ey?

Let me just show you a little of what she’s capable of, and maybe you’ll be able to figure it out.

First up, her CWTS audition project:

And how about this insanely awesome clock?

And she plants stuff in books, too!

I love this pillow SO much!

And how about this quilt she’s been working on for 17 years? Winking smile

So, go introduce yourself to Lindy @ Cottage Hill!

Eight is GREAT!

Coester 6
(Picture courtesy of the fabulous Lei of My Many Colored Days)

My sweet, sweet Keller turns 8 today. I dare you to not like him.

It’s impossible.

(His first Halloween. What kind of mother makes their 9 month old wear something like that???)

He oozes happy. And kindness.

I want to be more like him.

Except for the part where he sets his alarm early so he can watch the highlights of last night’s Jazz game before school. And the part where he wears 2 hoodies instead of a coat.

Happy birthday, little buddy!

A happy accident

So, today was not a great day. I meant to post and introduce you to my new partner for CWTS, but some things got in the way. And by “some things”, I mean “a (still wrapped) root beer float ice cream bar and an Asian pear”. And by “way”, I mean “toilet”.

So anyway…

When I was making my Valentine’s Day Bunting (thanks for the love, btw), I picked up some fabric paint. This fabric paint, to be exact.

See how right in the middle of the label it says “Red Velveteen”?

You might think that’s just the name of the color (like I did), but you’d be wrong. And, there’s nothing on the label either that would tip you off to the magic you are about to unleash. The Tulip website is the only place that even hints at the awesome.

The paint goes on normally, but when you hold your iron a few inches above it and hit it with a burst of steam?

Faux velvety magic.

Can you see how it puffs up just a little higher than the fabric?

I’ve already been back to the store for more colors. I’ve got big plans for the black.

See you tomorrow. Hopefully it’s a better day?

Giving Report & Honor Roll

President Michael Hemesath

Many have told me of the gratitude they feel for Saint John’s. As one alumnus recently wrote, “I am indebted to the SJU community and the monks. Without their support, I would not be who I am today.”

As president, I am very grateful to all alumni and friends who have stepped forward to support Saint John’s with their financial and volunteer contributions. This report, entitled Gratitude, highlights all donors to Saint John’s University during the 2016-2017 fiscal year, which concluded June 30, 2017.

Join us to Celebrate on October 6

At Homecoming on Friday, October 6, we will announce the results of the most ambitious capital campaign in Saint John’s history, Forward Ever Forward. I invite you to join alums and friends to celebrate the fruits of that campaign, including the dedication of the newly renovated Alcuin Library and the new Dietrich Reinhart Learning Commons. Visit this site for the Friday evening schedule and to RSVP for the celebration.

Your continued support for Saint John’s is critically important. Our traditional living endowment – the monastic community of Saint John’s – continues to provide spiritual sustenance; however, the 124 members can no longer provide the same level of financial support that marked the first century and a half of Saint John’s existence.

To ensure Saint John’s thrives to educate great Johnnies – in the Benedictine tradition – for a world that surely needs them, we need your support to make Saint John’s accessible and affordable, just as the contributions of monks did for so many of us.

Please enjoy this Gratitude report, and thank you again for everything you do for Saint John’s!

Michael Hemesath '81

Sonic 25th Anniversary | Worst 5 Sonic the Hedgehog Games

By Tomas Barry 04.07.2016 7

Not every beloved game franchise retains its finesse and sheen forever. Particularly when a series spans several decades, it's usually subject to several waves of technological advancements, cultural influences, and new game-shaping ideas. Some twenty- or thirty-year-old series manage to skim elegantly across that unpredictable body of water, for the most part. Nintendo's major franchises like Mario, Zelda and Metroid are prominent examples of well-handled properties. Poor Sonic the Hedgehog, however, has not exactly been chaperoned through life with quite the same amount of poise and grace.

This is true for a variety of reasons that I'll discuss in reflecting on the worst five. Before we begin peeling back this juicy onion, though, some clarification. Since we all know there's a multitude of suspect Sonic games out there, this is not a surveyed list, but, rather, my personal choices.

In addition, don't assume there isn't some degree of fun to be had from them, just because these games are disastrously short of the standards set by the 2D glory-days. Quite honestly, in some bizarre way, it's quite captivating to witness a long and over-drawn fall from grace. Sonic is our childhood celebrity, whom we loved dearly, but never envisaged in a million years becoming such a lune.

5. Sonic R - SEGA Saturn (1997)

Image for Sonic 25th Anniversary | Worst 5 Sonic the Hedgehog Games

Traveller's Tales first worked with SEGA and Sonic Team on the underwhelming Sonic 3D Blast for the Mega Drive. Despite the game's lukewarm reception, probably a direct result of the game featuring exactly none of Sonic's core or fun mechanics, it was technically a very impressive achievement. With the cancellation of the hedgehog's apparent 3D debut, Sonic X-treme, SEGA wisely requested a Blast port for the Saturn to fill the void. During this time, SEGA was made aware of another promising project of the British developers, a new 3D engine. With no connected ideas for this, you can only imagine how quickly the SEGA higher-ups launched at those Brits, desperate for their signatures. That is at least how I imagine Sonic R came to be.

Getting a racing game when your heart was set on a 3D adventure is like a child getting the wrong birthday present. The kid will probably sit down with it, and may well grow to love it, but expect a begrudged air of protest all the way there. The reality is that there's a lot to like about Sonic R. It's the most defendable culprit on this list, that's for sure. The game works, and that's a good start. It successfully breaks away from the competition by being an on-foot racer, excluding, of course, Amy, who, for reasons unknown, gets a saloon car. As if the stalker angle wasn't scary enough. Technically, it must also be commended for maintaining thirty frames per second, something only serious racers such as Daytona or SEGA Rally aspired to do back then, implying something more than a lazy tie-in.

Unfortunately, the game itself is simply too lightweight to withstand a proper grilling. Featuring only five courses, it can be completed within an hour. The minor grievances could go on, but we must acknowledge just how awful the Sonic R soundtrack is. It's the sort of cringe-worthy music you expect at one of those middle-school guest assemblies, if you can imagine. In simpler terms, avert your ears, folks.

4. Sonic Free Riders - Xbox 360, Kinect (2010)

Image for Sonic 25th Anniversary | Worst 5 Sonic the Hedgehog Games

There are many varieties of shoddy Sonic games, but this is undoubtedly the most mechanically broken of them all. You'd think by the third iteration of something as unquestionably awesome as a hover-board racing game, it would at least be the fans' favourite in the series, if not the perfect formula, like Wipeout 3. Instead, Sonic Free Riders took a slightly different approach… by being completely unplayable and, therefore, absolutely pants. The Kinect tracking just didn't work and since there was no option to use pads, that 'issue' rendered the whole game totally pointless. You'd only do your back in if you soldiered on, reports the small minority who say they managed to get it functioning.

Poor SEGA. You can understand Microsoft rushing them to finish, since otherwise they'd be without a well-established gaming figure in their launch window, which is somewhat taboo. Since almost all developers were having issues making actual games for Kinect, I reckon some tired and overworked technical director just strolled into the office one day and after watching some beta-tester get so frustrated they practically had a meltdown, threw his hands into the air and said, "Heck, that'll do."

The Sonic Riders series could easily have been a decent spiritual successor to Sonic R, if only it had got its fundamentals right. Instead, it's barely worth talking about at all. If you value your story content, however, which we Sonic fans have learnt not to, quite honestly, it's worth noting that the Sonic Riders series re-uses Sonic R's story, with minor variations, each time. This in turn means that Dr Eggman has distracted Sonic and his friends with a Grand Prix whilst he causes great evil no less than four times so far. Give me strength.

3. Sonic the Hedgehog - Xbox 360/PS3 (2006)

Image for Sonic 25th Anniversary | Worst 5 Sonic the Hedgehog Games
Oh, dear. Let's start by expressing that sentiment about every mentionable aspect of Sonic the Hedgehog '06 there is. You'd think SEGA would have wanted to put some distance between this game and its original namesake, but since it was at least in theory a celebration Sonic's fifteenth anniversary, some bold fellow apparently thought it was a good idea.

Unfortunately, unless it was subtitled "Sonic the Hedgehog: Exploring Bestiality," nothing would remotely prepare a Sonic fan for the scary and twisted events that spew forth from the 2006 release, with all the grace and timing of an exploding Flood carrier-mother from Halo.

But we should acknowledge Sonic Team were under an extraordinary amount of pressure at this time. The resignation of Yuji Naka, executive producer for the game and head of the entire company, caused numerous problems that only worsened as development progressed. At this time, Sonic Team also got its mitts on the Nintendo Wii developer kit and quickly realised they couldn't make one game for all three platforms. For this reason, the already over-stretched team was divided. One side worked on Sonic 2006 for the Xbox 360 and PS3, while the other started making Sonic and the Secret Rings for the Wii. The latter certainly fared better than the former, but both were unashamedly pushed through to launch on time. It's reported that Sonic Team ignored a long list of grievances from quality testers, simply voting to carry on as if nothing was afoul.

Okay, then, that explains the swelling mass of bugs and glitches, but what I want to know is who thought of "taking Sonic back to his roots." Oh, yes, because this Sonic the Hedgehog title was also painted as a whole-hearted reboot, which meant Sonic having a relationship with a ridiculous human princess. Don't tell me her name. I refuse to even Google it. The closing moment involving the kiss between the two was when I realised Sonic was doomed forever. I then threw my Xbox 360 out the window in a radical form of protest.

Honestly, I do not understand how a few humans in Sonic Adventure and Sonic Team seem to think they've set some irrevocable precedent. Almost every time we humans feature in a Sonic game, we spoil the soup (maybe not Adventure, though). Stop throwing potatoes in there, damnit! There's no way to soak up a fundamental lack of identity, try as you might.

2. Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis - GBA (2006)

Image for Sonic 25th Anniversary | Worst 5 Sonic the Hedgehog Games

Here's one you might not have seen coming. You know those classic Sonic games? The untouchable ones, which could never in a million years disappoint us, even today. Nope, you've got that one wrong, buddy. The fifteenth anniversary of Sonic was a double-whammy. As well as the candidate number three, we were also treated to a port of the original Mega Drive classic. Yes, that's correct. Sonic Team can't even do a good port of an excellent game that they made several decades ago. At least it's a distinguishable way to nail down a place on this list. Perhaps that's what they were going for?

Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis suffers from extremely poor frame-rate issues and unacceptable levels of lag. Clearly, the team struggled to reduce the screen ratio to suit the GBA, which in turn led to a cataclysmic disaster of a port. That would be fine in itself if SEGA actually understood the concept of quality testing - you didn't have to let it live! But there was surely some way to apply a modicum of respectability to the situation. Why not break it some more, and claim it as a meta-supernatural-zombie-thriller-adventurer-romp?

For all these issues, and for just generally besmirching their reputation with this one, Sonic Team's 2006 handheld entry scores highly on the list. If you can't do a good Sonic to save your life, it's best not to murder a classic in broad daylight.

1. Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric - Wii U (2014)

Image for Sonic 25th Anniversary | Worst 5 Sonic the Hedgehog Games

Prepare for bitterness. Let me tell you a personal story. It's Christmas time, one of the first when I feel like a proper adult. This is largely because of others in the family having kids, like young cousin Timmy who is now old enough to be interested in video games. Earlier, I'd had a eureka moment and gone ahead and purchased Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric, hoping we'd bond over a mutual love for the glorious blue hedgehog who offers bountiful gameplay pleasures. "I'll take a chance," I thought. "They say this is the reboot; how bad can it be?"

On Christmas Day, Timmy unwraps my present and is over the moon. I'm a cool uncle, plus obviously I get to spend the day helping him play the game, rather than helping out in the kitchen. In theory, that sounds worth any game's asking price. However, I'd say it was about one minute into the first cut-scene when I sensed that familiar dread in my stomach. For Timmy's sake, I faked some joy when the gameplay began as he optimistically glanced over at me. I knew instantly, however, what he was playing was no Marble Zone Act 1 by any stretch of the imagination. Then, whilst mulling over this particular thought, a terrifying glitch occurred, warping Sonic and his pals beyond all recognition as though some interdimensional rift had opened and sucked their faces off. Cue the screaming, and the tears. Then I scowled and cursed at SEGA like an old dog still not remotely house trained.

It's a good thing Timmy doesn't exist, and is merely a metaphor for my absolute disdain for Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric and all future acclaimed 'reboots' from Sonic Team. After a whole decade of awful attempts to reinvigorate Sonic games, you'd think they would know better than to acknowledge how lacklustre their entire decade's worth of effort had been. Not only did they do this, they then went on to promise yet another reboot that wouldn't let us fans down. But that's exactly what they did! To really add insult to injury, Sonic Boom turned out to be an embarrassing mess of basically unquantifiable proportions. The glitch part of the story wasn't a lie. It really is full of bizarre, immersion-breaking bugs and glitches. Not only this, but apparently placing ridiculous, out-of-place attire on Sonic, as well torturing and strangulating the various limbs of his buddies, now qualifies as trying to save a withered and dying series. Isn't that nice?

Unfortunately, this is yet another clearly rushed, ill-devised attempt at engineering the first decent and successful 3D Sonic platformer in what feels like a whole age. Remember when Sonic X-treme got cancelled? That time when SEGA canned a massively hyped Sonic 3D adventure because they had a perceived quality level to maintain for their flagship mascot? I miss those days. Those were wonderful sweet short-lived days.

At least they were trying, though. I mean, they were trying... right? The cartoon of the same name? Running in the US at the same time as the game released? That surely dictated nothing about the game's development cycle and/or quality whatsoever. Nope.

And the scarf was stupid.

Concluding Thoughts

There will never be a future remastered package of these five worst Sonic games, or any other of the countless offenders from the last twenty years or so. Such an offering would have to come with a developer commentary apologising for Sonic 2006 and Boom, at the very least. A large gift-wrapped bottle of Japanese whisky wouldn't go amiss, either. Perhaps an adult-sized tear-absorbent Sonic doll that I could give to Timmy, to help him through the next decade of awful Sonic games.

And here's a thought on that. VR and Sonic will eventually collide, and Sonic Team will probably be at the helm for that. Have mercy on my soul.

When your attempts to refocus a disenchanted franchise involve everything from werewolves to asking BioWare to make you a Sonic RPG, it's difficult to predict what lies around the next corner. Objectively speaking, it's good to know Sonic Team may one day randomly stumble upon a good direction for the series. On the other hand, it seems all SEGA really does these days is either pander to the 2D glory-days or mercilessly cash in on the hedgehog's good name.

The one thing that I'd get down on my knees and beg for (take note, SEGA) would be for no timescale or deadlines to be imposed on the next project. Almost every game on this list was rushed out without a second thought for its quality or the damage it did to the Sonic canon. Sonic Team as it currently operates is like a group of cooks who don't bother to check if the dish is done. They just splat it down on our plate and assume we'll lap it up like dogs. At this point, it seems like the only way to get a good meal would be to buy the ingredients ourselves, barge into the kitchen and just take charge of the whole thing. I won't bother making any actual suggestions for the future of Sonic, though, since I'm fairly certain they'd spectacularly misinterpret any valuable ideas, anyway, as per usual.

The major irritation is that SEGA and Sonic Team are simultaneously very aware of most life-long fans' opinions, yet also bizarrely apathetic towards those feelings of utter dismay. Furthermore, in the build up to each release, they adopt a highly questionable rhetoric that actually takes advantage of those lowered expectations. They continue to say this is the real reboot, this is Sonic reimagined and reinvigorated. We hear this almost every year. Reminds me of the boy who cried wolf. If they ever actually make another worthwhile mainstream entry in the Sonic series, will we even believe it?

Sonic 06 is in there Smilie. The world will not know a time paradox, we're safe ^^.

I remember when I first saw Sonic Boom. I was genuinely hyped for it and thought it looked refreshing. Then when thoughts came in over time and the game was finally released, I then went the complete opposite direction. xD

I think the worst Sonic game I've ever played was some pinball one. I think it was called Sonic Spinball?

But that was just a spin-off title.

Pffft, Sonic R was a staple of my childhood! I still love it. Guess nostalgia has a lot to answer for.

I never got to play it, but I always dug the cheesy music. Loved that they put them in the new Sonic Racing games.

I actually like the scarf. I like the Sonic Boom designs in general, except Knuckles. I appreciate that they tried to diversify and make him not just red sonic, but it just looks kinda goofy.

Worst one I've played was Sonic 3D Blast (Flickies' Island), and it was godawful. I can't imagine how bad one would have to be to get on this list.

Theroux's re-enactments in Scientology documentary prompt criticism

Piya Sinha-Roy
Daily Mail
By Reuters
March 13, 2017

LOS ANGELES, March 13 (Reuters) - When British documentary filmmaker Louis Theroux was unable to gain access to the Church of Scientology for a new film, he opted for what he thought would be the next best thing - to reenact scenes based on the memories of a former member.

"My Scientology Movie," in U.S. theaters now, employs dramatizations and re-enactments of church practices in an attempt to give viewers an inside look at an organization that has so far kept filmmakers at arm's length.

Theroux hired actors to stage scenes that he said were scripted by former senior Scientology member Marty Rathbun - who has written books and appeared in documentaries after leaving the religion - and his recollections of the church and its leader, David Miscavige.

But even before the film's debut, the accuracy of those staged depictions of Miscavige losing his temper and hitting church members was called into question by Rathbun himself.

"The `re-creation´ was in fact a creation," Rathbun wrote on his blog in September.

"Even though they worked with me for a year on that scene, I was not able to submit a script for an actual past occurrence to `re-create´ that could pass Theroux´s standards for lurid and shocking theater."

Theroux told Reuters he was perplexed by Rathbun's critique of the film, adding that the former Scientologist had "quite liked" the production when he first saw it.

"I don't know for a fact, but it wouldn't be a huge leap of imagination to feel that he's just worn down by the years of, you know, being harassed by Scientologists," he said.

Neither Scientology representatives nor Rathbun responded to requests for comment on the film.

Scientology, founded in 1954 by science-fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard, describes its practices as a religion based on the belief that humans are immortal beings whose experiences extend beyond one lifetime. Tom Cruise and John Travolta are among its cadre of celebrity followers.

Critics of the church regard Scientology as a cult that exploits its own followers and harasses those who seek to quit the faith. The church has previously denied such allegations.

Many aspects of the secretive religion have been brought to light in a number of other documentaries and books by ex-Scientologists, including Alex Gibney's 2015 film "Going Clear," adapted from a book of the same title.

Actress Leah Remini became the most high-profile celebrity to leave the church in 2013, documenting her experience in a television series. (Reporting by Piya Sinha-Roy; Editing by Steve Gorman and Cynthia Osterman)

Phase IIa clinical trial of Curcumin for the prevention of colorectal neoplasia.

Cancer Prev Res. 011; 4(3):354-64.

Curcumin has been shown to prevent aberrant crypt foci (ACF) and adenomas. It also inhibits production of procarcinogenic eicosanoids prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) via inhibiting COX-1, COX-2 and 5-Lipoxigenase (5-LOX). Presence of ACF has been seen in rectum of smokers, which increases with years of tobacco use. Based on above findings it was speculated that by reducing concentration of PGE2 and 5-HETE in flat mucosa of colorectum, Curcumin would reduce colorectal epithelial crypt proliferation and ACF formation in current smokers.

To assess effect of oral administration of Curcumin (a major component of Curcumin C3 Complex®) on PGE2 within ACF, 5-HETE, ACF number and proliferation.

Study Design:

A non-randomized open-label phase IIa clinical trial, with 44 eligible smokers having eight or more ACF on screening colonoscopy, for 30 days was planned. The prevention trial had two stages: first with 2 g/day Curcumin and second with 4 g/day Curcumin. Pre and post treatment concentrations of PGE2 and 5-HETE in ACF and normal tissue biopsies by LCMS; ACF number via rectal endoscopy; proliferation by Ki-67 immunohistochemistry; and Curcumin concentration by HPLC in serum and rectal mucosa samples were assessed. Primary endpoint was reduction of concentration of PGE2 and 5-HETE within ACF and in associated normal mucosa and secondary endpoint included total ACF number and an estimate of proliferation in normal mucosa using the proliferation marker Ki-67.

  • Forty-one patients completed the trial and were included in final toxicity and biomarker analysis.
  • There was no significant change in the PGE2 concentrations of 2-g or 4-g cohort between baseline and post intervention.
  • Curcumin supplementation did not reduce 5-HETE concentrations in ACF or normal mucosa of the 2-g or 4-g cohort.
  • The number of rectal ACF in 2-g cohort did not change, however, it decreased significantly (40 %) in 4-g cohort (P<0.005)
  • Post intervention Curcumin conjugate concentrations in plasma rose significantly (P=0.009) during treatment in the 4-g cohort.
  • Curcumin was well tolerated by the patients at both 2 g/day dose and 4 g/day dose.

The study demonstrates that a short duration of Curcumin (a major component of Curcumin C3 Complex®) treatment reduces ACF number in humans, which is in accordance with the preclinical data available. The mechanism by which it happens remain unanswered. However, treatment related increase in conjugate concentrations in plasma suggests that ACF reduction resulted from systemic rather than local delivery of conjugates. These data verify that despite low bioavailability of Curcumin, anticarcinogenic activity occurs in tissue target. However, larger trials are needed in high-risk adenoma population, also the mechanism by which Curcumin reduces ACF needs to be identified to further support the use of Curcumin as cancer prevention agent.
