    No full text
    Mark Nelson discusses his transition from city life to ranching in Boulder, Utah, after purchasing the Burns Ormand Ranch in 1977. He shares stories about his experiences training horses, including one exceptional palomino, and the adventures and mishaps associated with ranching, such as a memorable incident involving a spooked horse and a damaged saddle. Nelson also reflects on the economic realities of ranching, the value of the "soul of the work" over monetary returns, and the satisfaction of raising one\u27s own food. He touches upon the challenges of perpetuating ranching traditions and the joy of seeing his granddaughters involved in 4-H and horseback riding

    Advertising flier promoting a concert by the The Slinkees and The Zones, two punk bands from Washington, D.C. The concert occurred on August 24, 1979 in the garage of the bands' friend Brian in Washington, D.C. and was the Slinkees only live performance before breaking up. The Slinkees featured bassist Ian MacKaye, guitarist Geordie Grindle, and drummer Jeff Nelson, all of whom went on to play in the band The Teen Idles, one of the first hardcore punk bands from D.C. Nelson and MacKaye then founded the band Minor Threat, as well as the flagship D.C. punk record label, Dischord Records. Nelson, who designed this flier, went on to play drums in the bands Three and High-Back Chairs, among other projects. MacKaye went on to play in the bands Embrace, Fugazi, and the Evens, among others. The Slinkees' vocalist Mark Sullivan later sang for the band Kingface and wrote the novel "Jonah Sees Ghosts.

    Rules and mechanics

    So far in this book, we have seen a large number of methods for generating content for existing games. So, if you have a game already, you could now generate many things for it: maps, levels, terrain, vegetation, weapons, dungeons, racing tracks. But what if you don’t already have a game, and want to generate the game itself? What would you generate, and how? At the heart of any game are its rules. This chapter will discuss representations for game rules of different kinds, along with methods to generate them, and evaluation functions and constraints that help us judge complete games rather than just isolated content artefacts.\ud Our main focus here will be on methods for generating interesting, fun, and/or balanced game rules. However, an important perspective that will permeate the chapter is that game rule encodings and evaluation functions can encode game design expertise and style, and thus help us understand game design. By formalising aspects of the game rules, we define a space of possible rules more precisely than could be done through writing about rules in qualitative terms; and by choosing which aspects of the rules to formalise, we define what aspects of the game are interesting to explore and introduce variation in. In this way, each game generator can be thought of an executable micro-theory of game design, though often a simplified,\ud and sometimes even a caricatured on

    Well-known trade mark protection: confusion in EU and Japan

    No full text
    In this thesis concerning the protection of well-known trade marks against confusion in the European Community Trade Mark (CTM) and Japanese trademark systems, the author critically considers the difficulties in comprehensively defining ‘well-known trade mark’ in the relevant international trade mark instruments. After critical analysis of various definitions of both ‘trade mark’ and ‘well-known trade mark’, she undertakes a comparison of the definitions of the parallel concepts of ‘trade mark of repute’ and ‘syuchi-syohyo’, and also undertakes an assessment as to the extent to which these trade marks are protected against confusion and kondo in the CTM and Japanese systems, respectively. It is concluded that the protection of well- known trade marks against confusion in the CTM and Japan cannot be said to be completely clear, and the author identifies some areas for legal refor

    The Gospel on the Margins: The Ideological Function of the Patristic Tradition on the Evangelist Mark

    No full text
    In spite of the virtually unanimous patristic opinion that the evangelist Mark was the interpreter of Peter, one of the most prestigious apostolic founding figures in Christian memory, the Gospel of Mark was mostly neglected in the patristic period. Not only is the text of Mark the least well represented of the canonical Gospels in terms of the number of patristic citations, commentaries and manuscripts, the explicit comments about the evangelist Mark reveal some ambivalence about its literary or theological value. In my survey of the reception of Mark from Papias of Hierapolis until Clement of Alexandria, I will argue that the reason why the patristic writers were hesitant to embrace the Gospel of Mark was that they perceived the text to be amenable to the Christological beliefs and social praxis of rival Christian factions. The patristic tradition about Mark may have little historical basis, but it had an important ideological function in appropriating the text in the name of an apostolic authority from the margins or periphery
