Lovesongs Women and sports at Warwick » Photo: Warwick Media Library and Liam Simmonds Frats at Warwick Lucy Broughton DIVIDED One of the first American-style fraternities, Delta Kappa Epsilon (DKE), has been set up in the UK at Warwick University and the University of Edinburgh. Both Warwick and Edinburgh are being visited this week by an American representative to help the transition from ‘colony’ to ‘chapter’, from an unofficial American frater- nity to an officially-recognised one. Recruitment to DKE relies on potential members exhibiting three qualities – those of ‘the gentleman, the scholar, and the jolly good-fel- low’. There are, however, concerns surrounding the nature of the DKE Students cross the picket line by organising own lectures fraternity brand.

  • VA and Microsoft Partner to Enhance Care, Rehabilitation and Recreation for Veterans with Limited Mobility
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 30, 2019 VA and Microsoft partner to enhance care, rehabilitation and recreation for Veterans with limited mobility Xbox Adaptive Controllers will be distributed across facilities within nation’s largest integrated health care system WASHINGTON — Today, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Microsoft Corp. announced a new collaboration to enhance opportunities for education, recreation and therapy for Veterans with mobility limitations by introducing the Xbox Adaptive Controller — a video game controller designed for people with limited mobility — in select VA rehabilitation centers around the country. The partnership, which was formalized April 18, will provide controllers and services to Veterans as part of therapeutic and rehabilitative activities aimed at challenging muscle activation and hand-eye coordination, and greater participation in social and recreational activities. “This partnership is another step toward achieving VA’s strategic goals of providing excellent customer experiences and business transformation,” said VA Secretary Robert Wilkie. “VA remains committed to offering solutions for Veterans’ daily life challenges.” Together, VA and Microsoft identified an opportunity to introduce or reintroduce gaming to Veterans with spinal cord injuries, amputations and neurological or other injuries at 22 VA medical centers across the United States. Microsoft is donating its Xbox Adaptive Controller, game consoles, games and other adaptive gaming equipment as part of the collaboration. Designated VA staff will engage with Veterans using the equipment and share feedback with Microsoft on therapeutic utility and the Veteran experience. "We owe so much to the service and sacrifice of our Veterans, and as a company, we are committed to supporting them," said Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft.

  • Playing Games
    Playing Games By Tamara Mitchell Image courtesy of TheWireCutter.com Do you or your kids play computer games? Playing computer games has been shown to increase your chances of developing repetitive strain injury, or RSI. Considering the number of games sold, reported injury rates are relatively low, but they are related to the type of controller used and the number of hours games are played.1 Wii games are the only ones that have a majority of traumatic, rather than repetitive strain injuries due to strenuous full-body movements. When the player is distracted from their surroundings, impact with other objects or people, as well as loss of balance may occur.1 Judging from the number of comments on gaming blogs and gaming YouTube videos, it is likely that the occurrence of RSI is under-reported in medical records to some extent. Nobody likes to admit they are having issues with pain, especially when it involves a passionate hobby. We are not going to tell you to stop playing unless you are experiencing advanced symptoms. But there are things you should always do to greatly reduce the probability of injury. Make a few changes and you will be doing yourself and your gaming kids a huge favor by actually extending the number of years you’ll be able to enjoy playing. Most gaming is very mouse or control oriented. We caution people in the office environment to avoid the mouse as much as possible by learning keyboard shortcuts to perform many application-related actions. In gaming, this is not an option.
