Immigration Spawns Church Fury by DAPHNE TAYLOR Special to South Florida Times sfltimes.com “Elevating the Dialogue” SERVING MIAMI-DADE, BROWARD, PALM BEACH AND MONROE COUNTIES DECEMBER 4 — 10, 2014 | 50¢ IN THIS ISSUE BROWARD Immigration spawns church fury By DAPHNE TAYLOR Special to South Florida Times POMPANO BEACH — At least one determined African-American leader is on a crusade, hoping to put an end to President Barack Obama's immigration reform policy. The Reverend O'Neal Dozier, pastor and founder of The Worldwide Christian Center Church in Pompano Beach and founder of The Voting Majority, a group of both clergy and non-clergy who are fighting against Obama’s immigra- tion plan, says the president's stance on immigration is hurting black people and NATION/3A he is demanding a reversal because the policy violates the Civil Rights’ of blacks. Dozier is so passionate about it, that he has written a letter to the president, urg- Petermans ing him to rethink and reverse his policy. He emailed the letter to the White House last week, on the day President Obama Our Environment unveiled his plans. LETTER ON 6A Dozier says if the president's policy on immigration is implemented, it would be devastating for African-Americans because it would take away jobs that blacks desperately need and it’s infringing on African-Americans’ civil rights. “The Civil Rights act states that no one has the right to infringe on our freedom,” stated Dozier. “We are guaranteed life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Flooding the job market with 'illegals' like this will hurt blacks,” he said, in a telephone interview.

  • Triple Plays Analysis
    A Second Look At The Triple Plays By Chuck Rosciam This analysis updates my original paper published on SABR.org and Retrosheet.org and my Triple Plays sub-website at SABR. The origin of the extensive triple play database1 from which this analysis stems is the SABR Triple Play Project co-chaired by myself and Frank Hamilton with the assistance of dozens of SABR researchers2. Using the original triple play database and updating/validating each play, I used event files and box scores from Retrosheet3 to build a current database containing all of the recorded plays in which three outs were made (1876-2019). In this updated data set 719 triple plays (TP) were identified. [See complete list/table elsewhere on Retrosheet.org under FEATURES and then under NOTEWORTHY EVENTS]. The 719 triple plays covered one-hundred-forty-four seasons. 1890 was the Year of the Triple Play that saw nineteen of them turned. There were none in 1961 and in 1974. On average the number of TP’s is 4.9 per year. The number of TP’s each year were: Total Triple Plays Each Year (all Leagues) Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's <1876 1900 1 1925 7 1950 5 1975 1 2000 5 1876 3 1901 8 1926 9 1951 4 1976 3 2001 2 1877 3 1902 6 1927 9 1952 3 1977 6 2002 6 1878 2 1903 7 1928 2 1953 5 1978 6 2003 2 1879 2 1904 1 1929 11 1954 5 1979 11 2004 3 1880 4 1905 8 1930 7 1955 7 1980 5 2005 1 1881 3 1906 4 1931 8 1956 2 1981 5 2006 5 1882 10 1907 3 1932 3 1957 4 1982 4 2007 4 1883 2 1908 7 1933 2 1958 4 1983 5 2008 2 1884 10 1909 4 1934 5 1959 2

Pagulayan, Ph.D. One Microsoft Way Mail Stop: Mill F/1287 Redmond, WA 98052-6399 [email protected] The intent of this chapter is to review principles and challenges in game design and evaluation and to discuss user-centered techniques that address those challenges. First, we will present why games are important, followed by the definitions and differences between games and productivity software. In the next section, we discuss the principles and challenges that are unique to the design of games. That discussion provides a framework for what we believe are the core variables that should be measured to aid in game design and evaluation. The chapter will conclude with some examples of how those variables can be operationalized in which we will present the methods used by the Microsoft Games User-Testing group. Why games are important Computers that appeared commercially in the 1950’s created a technological barrier that was not easy to overcome for the greater population. Only scientists, engineers, and highly technical persons were able to use these machines (Preece et al., 1994). As computers became less expensive, more advanced, and more reliable, the technology that was once only available to a small group of people was now permeating itself throughout the entire population and into everyday life.

Los mismos nunca se imaginaron que en tan poco tiempo iban a tener que complementarse, acompañar y hasta temer en muchísimos aspectos a este nuevo actor. Este nuevo partícipe ha generado en solamente unas décadas de vida, una profunda revolución con implicancias sociales, culturales y económicas, creando nuevos e interesantes modelos de negocio los cuales van cambiando en períodos cada vez más cortos. A diferencia del crecimiento lento y progresivo de la radio, el cine y luego la televisión, el videojuego ha alcanzado en apenas medio siglo de vida ser objeto de gran interés e inversión de diferentes rubros, y semejante logro ha ido creciendo a través de transformaciones, aceptación general y evoluciones constantes del concepto mismo de videojuego. Los videojuegos, como indica Provenzo, E. (1991), son algo más que un producto informático, son además un negocio para quienes los manufacturan y los venden, y una empresa comercial sujeta, como todas, a las fluctuaciones del mercado.
