What are MMOGs and how do they differer from regular video games?
 MMOGs stands for Massive Multiplayer Online Game(s) This game differ from regular video game in which the MMOG requires mass of people to play with personal computers.
 People can communicate, make a union/group and trading imaginary items via the specific online games.
 Regular video games, like Play Station series Game Cube and Wii do not require any purchase from costumer to buy anything in games
 But MMOG requires people to purchase (not compulsory) in real life. If any items that people interests to obtaining, they need to buy it at online shops like ebay.

 Would there be stresses in living in a virtual world?
 I guess there are some obstacles. While I was playing "Second Life",
 I felt very annoyed of slow connection, slow loading, many functions which I have to learn before actually playing.

Find the Best Personal Computer
 Computer runs very fast these days. Compare to my first PC 'iMac' 2007 and 'Macbook' 2009, there was dramatical improvement.
 However, there are fastest, super personal computer. I have considered the price, markets, and year and I found that Apple iMac is the best personal computer.

iMac 21.5-inch
 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
 4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB
 500GB Serial ATA Drive
 NVIDIA GeForce 9400M
 Apple Wireless Keyboard (English) and User's Guide
 8x double-layer SuperDrive
 $1,199.00
 Source: http://store.apple.com/us/configure/MB950LL/A?mco=MTM3NDc2NDc

I donot mean that because I use Apple, I am bias. Recently, Apple has created program that allows to use Windows operating system in the Mac called 'Bootcamp'. Thus people can use Mac as well as Windows.
 Buying iMac is easy to have fastest super PC because there are apple stores in Thailand, around the world.
 However, If we are not talking price and market, then I think customized PC is the best one.
 Like Alienware, Dell based. http://www.dell.com/us/en/home/desktops/alienware-area-51-alx/pd.aspx?refid=alienware-area-51-alx&s=dhs&cs=19

Overall, it is up to people which one they want to buy!

= Introduction of Myself =

I have finished my third H/W for ICNS141 Computer Essentials. My introduction is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpyGq1UCGrk

but because of I did with my Japanese friends, so that there are series of introduction. Watch my introduction and then watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnUkKgKK5Lo and lastly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68ylwnyPSDo

= Homework 4 = I've finished my 4th H/W.

1. What are MMOGs and how do they differer from regular video games?

MMOGs stands for Massively Multiplayer Online Games, that we can play with other game players

to compete or have fun through the Internet connection. For instance, Play Station 3 has a lot of online service

especially FPS (First Person Shooting) services. The difference between this and a normal video game is that

MMOGs, we can play with other users (not CPU) in a same time. But a normal Video game, we can play against CPU only

(or against people playing ext to you).

2. Would there be stresses in living in a virtual world?Link title

Yes, there are. For example, if the quality of PC or Internet connection are not good enough to play

online game comfortably, we might get stressed by delaying the character's movement in the virtual.

And the view is much narrower than our sight of course, so we might be suffered from the difficulty of sight.

3. Look at e-bay and see what is being sold from secondlife and other on-line game forum.

Is the economy from these games real?

The economy is not real, it's virtual. If it's kind a website shopping, it's real.

But in this case, it's just a currency in the game world but not for our world unfortunately.

Votian/Copula and Compound Tenses

== Copula  ==

=== Predicative    ===

'' There is not much data about this matter available. So I've made my own research basing on the data of modern Finnish. ''

Baltic Finnic languages oppose  partial    predicative   to  total predicative
 * Partitive marks a partial    predicative   while  nominative  marks a  total predicative  of a sentence.
 *  tämä naizikko on tōž soikkoлaisī  ('This woman also is a one of Soikkola Ingrians.' i.e. We emphasize, that she belongs to a group of certain quality - is a part of that group. - This is a partial predicative.)
 *  tämä on soikkuлaine̮  ( Liivtšülä dialect 'She is a Soikkola Ingrian.' i.e. We don't emphasize, that she belongs to that group. - This is a total predicative.)
 * See the page of main cases  for further details.

As a copula  they use an  auxiliary verb   e̮ллa / lid́d́ä  (òl-tak / lee-tak).

Pronunciation
ò is pronounced as o only in Kukkuzi dialect. Elsewhere (both in Ingria and Estonia) it is pronounced as e̮.

e̮  substitutes e according to vowel harmony rules (except in  Kukkuzi dialect) e.g.  e̮лe̮issi    (" (if) she was ")

òle may be contracted to ō or ē̮  respectively e.g.  epi òle-k  >  ebō tarvis teit opetta  ('There is no need to teach you.'  Kukkuzi dialect). vs.  mȫ ē̮mma ~ e̮лe̮mma  ('We are').

Short vowels and imperfect  i melt together into a single short vowel.
 * E.g. e̮ + -i- > i: e̮лe̮G ('Be!') > e̮livaD ('They were.').

Short e / e̮ were substituted by i in front of j.
 * E.g. e̮ + -i- > i: e̮лe̮vaD ('being' plural nominative  of  present tense participle) > e̮lija ('the one who is.').

The final -k has been preserved only in Eastern Votic dialect e.g.  lēäG  (" to be " potential-future  infinitive). All the other dialects both in Ingria and Estonia have lost the phoneme *k in the end of words e.g.  lēvvä ~ lid́d́ä .

t component of indefinite voice suffixes is weakened everywhere (except after unstressed vowels) e.g. elko'on òl-ttako'on >  elkō e̮лtagō  ('Nobody should be (like this).'), òl-t'aksen > e̮ллassē̮  ('Somebody would get.').

Potential marker -ne- may be omitted : lēneväD / lēväD, lēneD / lēD etc.

See the chapter of participles  about dialectal and morphophonological alternations of -nut and -nut-et e.g.  emmak òl-nut-et  >  mǖ emmä ollēd nähnēt karrua  ('We had not seen bear.'  Kukkuzi dialect ) vs.  epi òl-nut  >  eb e̮ллut tšettäit kot̀on  ('Nobody was at home'  Itšäpäivä dialect).

=== Compound tenses  ===

Existance of compound tenses  in  Baltic Finnic  languages is rather disputable as the whole grammar of those languages is created under influence of German and Swedish linguistics.

Thus a complex predicate  composed of  copula   verb  e̮ллa / lid́d́ä  (òl-tak / lee-tak) and a  past participle is treated as perfect tense  ( or  pluperfect tense  if the  auxiliary verb  is in  imperfect  ~ German (Plusquamperfekt ): auxiliary verb (haben or) sein in its preterite form + Partizip Perfekt (Partizip II) of the full lexical verb. For example:  Nachdem ich aufgestanden war, ging ich ins Badezimmer.  "After I had got up, I went into the bathroom.").

Votic examples:
 * 1)  omaD antannūD  ("They have given." perfect )
 * 2)  e̮livaD antannūD  ("They had given." pluperfect )

 * Ariste interpretes the future forms of  e̮лe̮ma (~ lid́d́ä )  auxiliary verb  +  past participle  of a main verb as   futurum exactum   e.g.  kui miä lēn tšüzünnü, sis siä anna  ("If I shall ask, then you give me!"),  siллē̮  ke̮ik̄   lēp   ̮ prostittu  ("Everything will be forgiven you!"  indefinite voice ),  leiväd  ̮ lēvät  ̮ senelē лavvaлē̮  pantu  ("Bread will be layed on this table."  indefinite voice ).

In fact the auxiliary verb  e̮ллa / lid́d́ä  (òl-tak / lee-tak) of a  complex predicate  may have any (mood, voice and tense) marker. So we could create a heap of additional compound tenses. Unfortunately it's difficult to find them proper counterparts in Latin grammar.
 * 1) E.g.  eb' e̮лtaiz ne̮istu  ("Nobody would have begun." pluperfect ) - composed of
 * 2)  negation verb  of the third person of singular - epi
 * 3) auxiliary verb in  conditional  of  indefinite voice  - òl-ttaiksik
 * 4)  past participle o indefinite voice  of another auxiliary verb  ne̮isa (nòis-tak)  in role of main verb for the previous one - nòis-ttu
 * 5) missing  ma infinitive  in the role of a full lexical verb should be guessed from context (a  potential-future  expression)
 * 6)  eväd e̮лtaiz e̮лtu tšüzünnüd  ("They would not had asked.") - composed of
 * 7)  negation verb  of the third person of plural - evat
 * 8) auxiliary verb in  conditional  of  indefinite voice substituting the form of the third person of plural  - òl-ttaiksik
 * 9)  past participle o indefinite voice  of another auxiliary verb in role of main verb for the previous one - òl-ttu
 * 10)  past participle o definite voice  of a full lexical verb - küsu-nut

Moreover, the auxiliary verb  e̮ллa / lid́d́ä  (òl-tak / lee-tak) may compose a  complex predicate  with other  non-finite verb  forms. See the chapters of verbal nouns  and  participles  about it.

We could have  present continuous  here, if the grammar was written by British. For example:
 * 1) -massa  inessive  may express
 * 2)  situation  - e.g.  isä on sȫmäzä    (" Father is eating. " kuza ?),  e̮limma spektaklia vāttamaza    (" We were watching a performance. "),  e̮лtī   tšäümäzä    (" They went wooing. ")
 * 3) -matta  abessive  may express
 * 4)  undone  action - e.g.  ve̮rkko on paratamattaG    (" The net is not repaired. " Eastern Votic dialect),  ope̮n on sȫmättä    (" The horse has not eaten. ")
 * 5) -ttava  adjective participial   modifier  may express
 * 6)  possibility  or acceptance of an action - e.g.  jōma on jōtava    (" The drink would (or might) be drunk. "),  on suvattava    ("is amiable, lovable ")
 * 7) obligation - e.g.  pantava on pajate̮ttava i naite̮ttava on nagre̮ttava    (" People should talk about the one, whom others must find a groom for and people should laugh at the one, whom others must find a bride for. " ~ a proverb)

It seems more practical to analyse those constructions word by word instead of spending ones lifetime creating hypothetical paradigms.

=== Other use cases of e̮ллa / lid́d́ä  (òl-tak / lee-tak) ===

 lee-tak  may express also
 * 1)  obligation  - e.g. Lempola dialect  lieb minū manaχann  ̮ e̮ллa ke̮ik̄   itšä  ("I must be a monk all my lifetime.")
 * 2)   indefinite relative pronouns   - e.g.  siä ku b lie tahod mennä tšäümǟ enellēz nuorikke̮ata  ("You probably want to go wooing."),  Savvokkala dialect  tšel   ̮ lēp tuli   n a r v a s̄    ("Somebody came from Narva.")
 * 3) There are future forms of  e̮лe̮ma   auxiliary verb  +  past participle  of a main verb e.g.  mǖ lēmm tšüzüttü  ('We shall be asked.' passive future).
 * 4) There are future forms of  e̮лe̮ma   auxiliary verb  +  ta infinitive  of a main verb in Votic grammar of Ariste e.g.  sinū tavākā liep  ̮ tauge̮ta  ('One of your habits should die.' future obligation),  lieb  ̮ mennä mettsǟ obahkā  ('We should go to forest to pick mushrooms.' future proposal  Lempola ).

Dialectal alternatives
ò is pronounced as o only in Kukkuzi dialect. Elsewhere (both in Ingria and Estonia) it is pronounced as e̮.

e̮  substitutes e according to vowel harmony rules (except in  Kukkuzi dialect) e.g.  e̮лe̮issi    (" (if) she was ")

òle may be contracted to ō or ē̮  respectively e.g.  epi òle-k  >  ebō tarvis teit opetta  ('There is no need to teach you.'  Kukkuzi dialect). vs.  mȫ ē̮mma ~ e̮лe̮mma  ('We are').

on-vat  may be pronounced as onvaD ~ ovaD ~ omaD.

epi òle-k  may be pronounced as  eb ̮ e̮лe   ~ be̮лe̮ ~ bē̮ .

 epi òl-nut  may be pronounced as  eb ̮ e̮ллu   ~ be̮ллu .

 * Votic of Ingria
 * Eastern Votic dialect
 * A metanalytic morpheme -k has been added to the past participle's singular nominative -nut e.g.  lēn e̮ллuG  ('I'll be.'). The suffix -k is probably borrowed from the present tense negation here, where it was a present tense marker . See the chapter of imperfect tense negation.
 * A metanalytic morpheme -k has been added to the potential-future  negation  ettak lee-ne  >  ettak lee-k  e.g.  ettäg  ̮ lēG  ('You won't be.'). The suffix -k is probably borrowed from the present tense negation here, where it was a present tense marker.
 * A metanalytic morpheme -k has been added to the conditional negation e.g.  ettäg  ̮ e̮лe̮issiG  ('You wouldn't be.'),  ep  ̮ e̮лtaissiG  ('Nobody would be.'  indefinite voice ). The suffix -k is probably borrowed from the present tense negation here, where it was a present tense marker.
 * In Eastern Votic dialect they have (preserved or added) -k in the end of auxiliary verb  of  analytic imperative   las'e-k emmak òle  >  la'-k emmak òle  e.g.  lag   ̮ emmäg   ̮ e̮le̮G  ('Let's not be (like this).'). . The  auxiliary verb  of  analytic imperative   la'  may be originated from the verb  laske̮a (laske-tak) ("let" ~ German lassen ~ Swedish lata ) e.g.  lazze̮ttako urvittama ? (<  laske-ttak-ko  "Dou you let me whisk you ? " Lempola dialect;  Whisking  is a certain Easter ritual.),  laka miä tämǟ ve̮ttan enelē  (<  laske-ka'a  'Let me take this.' Mati dialect),  jutte̮n las vā  (<  las'e-k  'I say: "Let it be!".' Jõgõperä dialect).

What are MMOGs and how do they differer from regular video games? The main difference is about the number of the players. Massively multiplayer online game is a video game which is capable of supporting hundreds or thousands of players simultaneously.They play on the internet. On the other hand, regular video game can play locally only with 1 to 4 people and no need to use the internet, but sometimes regular video game. 2. Would there be stresses in living in a virtual world? There would have no serious stresses in virtual world for people who don't play the game in virtual world seriuosly because people have nothing to lose in the virtual world, and the items in the virtual world have no value in the real world. However, some people who play the game seriously could have more stress than other players because they may trade items from virtual world could make them have value in the real world.

3. Look at e-bay and see what is being sold from secondlife and other on-line game forum. Is the economy from these games real? They trade money in the game by using money in the real world. Moreover, they sell clothing items in secondlife. In other online game, they trade some rare items in the game. The economy from online games is real as we can see trading in e-bay and many other game board.

Statement of Intent
Music has been my release to the world since I can remember. Times in my life have been connected with so many songs that it's crazy. What i would like to do this quarter is to make 10 songs about times in my life. The songs will fade into to each other all telling stories that I think are important parts in my life.

Overview
My main objective on writing these songs is to improve my writing skills at the same time, create great music

Rationale
A better understanding on how to structure my lyrics.

Publication/Presentation
Myspace.com Twitter.com Imeem.com Itunes.com

Schedule
My weeks will be divided into two parts. Part 1: Planning Part 2: Execution

Every week i will pick a part in my life and decide a beat i think fits the scene. The second half of the week will be writing, recording and mixing.

Anticipated Problems
The biggest problem in this whole operation is procrastination. To stay on top of that i took all the songs off my iPod and loaded most of it with instrumentals just to have beats going through my ears trying to strike a memory flash or something to help with the decision part of the plan

Week 6 Project Review
This is the summary of how my progress is going with my project. I would have to honestly say I'm 45% with all the things that I've actually put on paper. The problem that I run into when I write my poems is that it's hard to put something that hits so close to the heart down on paper without relapsing and kind of going through that experience. As weird as it may be I catch myself dosing into my thoughts when I write, and its like my eyes take over where my hands belong. The upside to going into la la land, is that there are spots that shine so bright and things I am very proud of that I have accomplished. I had my workshop earlier this week and I really appreciated the comments I got from the class and teach because when I write I don't really pay attention to my form and rhythm as I write, it comes after the creation when I do it. It seems much easier and would open up a lot of different paths if I payed attention to the structure of my writing and made it fit with the flow of whatever I was working on. All in all I think I'm on a good path to being done and ready with all my work and on there appropriate times.

=Analytical Writing=

Statement of Intent
For my analytical writing paper I want to analyze the different Christian views on Eschatology. Eschatology is a part of theology and philosophy concerned with what are believed to be the final events in the history of the world, or the ultimate destiny of humanity, commonly referred to as the end of the world. As a Christian, to me this topic seems very intriguing. Not that I am interested in going to downtown Seattle with signs “the ends is near”, but the whole concept, idea and imagery of different descriptions and ideas of eschatology, completely overtake my fascination. Even the word “Eschatology” itself is fascinating to me. I have never done any kind of in depth research on this topic. However, I do know that Christianity as faith is divided over what happens in the end. Even some of my closest friends, who I agree with on pretty much every issue, disagree with each other on eschatology. My lack of knowledge of the different ideas will strategically place me in a neutral stance, right from the start. This will allow me to critically analyze every single idea without any biases. With that critical analysis I will allow the facts to speak for themselves and shape my view on Eschatology.

Overview
I intend to analyze the different ways Christians view Eschatology, to in the end come to my own conclusion.

Rationale
I hope to in the end finally understand Christian views on eschatology with which I can come to my own conclusion. At the same time writing the most throughout researched paper that I have written to not settle on a mediocre paper but to write a showpiece.

Publication

Schedule
Week 2 – Have my topic approved Week 3- Begin research Week 4- Begin writing the paper Week 5- Continue to beef up my paper with research

Anticipated Problems
Well the first thing that might go wrong is that my topic will not get approved because it has a religious nature to it. If it fails I will immediately begin searching for more topics. If I do go along with my topic I believe my biggest problem will be getting too caught up in my research to the point that I am completely confused on my topic (religious topic tend to do that). If that happens I will go back as far as I can in my research where I actually understood where I was and then move on to the research that was confusing me very slowly and cautiously.

Week 6 Project Review

Before Or During Week 6

 * Popular culture - apocalypse obsession
 * Why are they important - important to me
 * What are these perspectives
 * Conclusions - personal/cultural

For some time before Luther nailed his ninety-five theses on the church door at Wittenberg in October of 1517, a need for reform had been felt by many people in diverse places within the Catholic church. Efforts had been made by such groups as the Waldensians and the Cathars, in the Alpine regions and southern France, in the late 12th and early 13th centuries; the Lollards in England in the 14th century; and the Hussites in Bohemia in the fifteenth. All of these were eradicated or contained by the established church, sometimes brutally. Yet, in retrospect, it seems inevitable that the Roman church could not stave off these reform movements indefinitely. The reformation only awaited the right time and place, and the right person, to start a ball rolling which the considerable power of the medieval church would be unable to stop. That person was a priest named Martin Luther. The irony is that when he took his fateful step of nailing the ninety-five theses on the door of the cathedral at in the university town of Wittenberg, he had no idea that such a small deed would have such a monumental impact on the course of history.

The problem was an established church which had become more of a tyrannical political power than a spiritual entity. Where church doctrine was concerned, the word of the pope and the church councils was final. All else was heresy and would be punished by excommunication, torture, or even death, frequently by burning. The pope, the cardinals, and the bishops wielded great power, not just over the church, but also over secular authorities, and they became extremely wealthy through political favors and the sale of indulgences.

Indulgences were based on the doctrine that God had given the church on earth the power to forgive sins, a teaching which opened the door to rampant corruption. In return for money or property, the church would grant “forgiveness” of specific sins. This practice brought large amounts of money into the church coffers. Other problems included the notion of papal infallibility; the veneration, unsupported in Scripture, of Mary and the saints; the doctrine of transubstantiation; Latin masses; and the prohibition against translating the Scriptures from Latin into the language of the people. These and other abuses were the cause of a growing discontent in the early sixteenth century.

There was no great conspiracy, however, to overthrow the church’s authority. Luther’s initial goal was to bring about reform within the church, rather than rebellion against it. Unfortunately, the church proved to be so inflexible that he was eventually left with no alternative but to either recant or break away. Luther’s study of the Bible, in particular Paul’s epistle to the Romans, had led him to believe that salvation is found in God alone, and is based on a right relationship with him. This belief contradicted the church’s sacramental theology, which stated that salvation is obtained through the observance of the sacraments. Since only priests could administer the sacraments, salvation came through the church, not directly from God.

There were seven sacraments in all: baptism, communion, confirmation, penance, extreme unction, orders, and matrimony. Luther eventually rejected the sacramental status of all but two, baptism and communion, and even then did not attach any saving grace to them in and of themselves. In his treatise, The Freedom of a Christian (Fortress, 1970), he says, “God our Father has made all things depend on faith so that whoever has faith will have everything, and whoever does not have faith will have nothing.” In addition, he taught that Jesus alone is the head of the church, and Scripture is our final authority in all matters of doctrine. All church teachings must be weighed against Scripture and only can be considered authoritative to the point that they are supported by it.

In another time or place, Luther would have been speedily condemned for his “heresies,” but he was fortunate to find a sympathetic ear in a powerful place: Frederick III, Elector of Saxony. (As an elector, he was one of the German princes qualified to vote in the choosing of the Roman emperor.) The support of Frederick afforded Luther protection which proved to be indispensible. As a result, Luther not only escaped with his life, but was able to continue to teach his views openly. The people were ready for his message and he rapidly gained a large following. Before long, Luther’s writings were being circulated throughout the empire, and “evangelical” congregations (i.e. adhering to the teachings of the New Testament) sprang up all over Germany. Thus, the first of the major Reformation groups, the Lutherans, was born.

Ulrich Zwingli and the Swiss Reformation
Ulrich Zwingli was a Swiss priest and a contemporary of Luther. Zwingli was to become the leader of the reformation in German-speaking Switzerland. Switzerland at that time was a loose confederation of cantons which, although nominally a part of the Roman Empire, ran their own affairs with very little interference from outside. Zwingli had been influenced by Erasmus and other humanists and had long been moving in the direction of the reform movement, but the developments in Germany and his study of Luther’s writings motivated him to a greater zeal. He began to openly pursue the reform of the Swiss churches while working as a priest in Zurich in 1522.

While Luther’s main emphasis was that salvation was given only by the grace of God through the faith of the believer, Zwingli, while not contradicting Luther, emphasized the Bible as the binding authority in matters of practice and doctrine. Luther had a high view of Scripture also, but Zwingli was more radical in that he felt that all authority, both secular and spiritual, must find support for its actions in Scripture. It was not enough that the Bible did not forbid a particular thing, it must be explicitly supported. A History of the Christian Church (Charles Scribner, 1985) says:

 * The city council, accordingly, ordered a public disputation, in January 1523, in which the Bible should be the exclusive touchstone. For this debate, Zwingli prepared sixty-seven brief articles, asserting that the Gospel derives no authority from the church and that salvation is by faith alone, and denying the sacrificial character of the Mass, the salvatory character of good works, the value of saintly intercessors, the binding character of monastic vows, and the existence of purgatory. He also declared Christ to be the sole head of the church, and he advocated clerical marriage.

The changes did not come overnight, but the next few years saw a decisive break from Rome in the Zurich churches, culminating in the abolition of the Mass in 1525. Soon, Zwingli’s reformation was exported to Bern, the largest of the Swiss cantons, which pledged allegiance to the evangelical cause in 1528. Basel followed closely upon its heels and evangelicalism was solidly established there by 1529.

Although Zwingli was in agreement with Luther for the most part, they differed in their views concerning the communion elements. Luther believed that the words, “This is my body,” were literally true, that the bread and the wine took on the essential nature of Christ’s flesh and blood. Zwingli taught that the bread and the wine merely represented Christ’s flesh and blood. They were “outward and visible signs of an inward and spiritual grace.” This became a serious point of contention at times and proved to be a cause of division in the fledgling Protestant church.

The Anabaptists
Zwingli was willing to let change come gradually if it meant that it would be more peaceful. He did not believe in provoking the establishment unnecessarily. This led some of the reformers to become frustrated with him. The leaders in the movement for more radical reform were Balthasar Hubmaier, a preacher in Waldshut on the northern edge of Switzerland; and Louis Haetzer, Felix Manz, and Conrad Grebel, citizens of Zurich. They believed that Scripture does not teach infant baptism, and the baptisms which had been administered to them as babies were invalid. This meant that rebaptism was necessary. Such a move, however, would be extremely controversial, and Luther and Zwingli were not prepared to go so far. These dissatisfied reformers became solidified as a separate strain of the Reformation in January of 1525, when at a prayer meeting in Zurich, an ex-priest named George Blaurock asked Grebel to baptize him. Grebel obliged, and Blaurock immediately baptized fifteen others. More baptisms were to follow in the coming weeks in open defiance of the authorities, who had forbidden them to continue in this teaching. As a result of these baptisms, these dissenters came to be known as Anabaptists, which literally means re-baptizers. But initially they would not accept this name because they did not believe their first baptism to be genuine.

As this new sect developed, its differences with Zwingli became more sharply defined. In The Radical Reformation (Westminster, 1962), George Huntston Williams writes:

 * Zwingli’s ideal was a cantonally reformed Alpine ‘Israel’, still to be realized by the prophet’s patient ecclesiastical diplomacy and patriotic grasp of the importance of bringing into line the other cantons of the Confederation. The ideal of the voluntarist Anabaptists was a mobile fellowship of conventicles, a righteous remnant assembling in Zurich and throughout its village dependencies and beyond, determined to put into immediate practice what their leaders had in breathless religious excitement learned from Zwingli himself in his appeal to Scripture as the ultimate authority.

Where Zwingli sought to work through the existing authorities to establish a state church under the reformed pattern, the Anabaptists began to distance themselves from the establishment, rejecting the notion that secular authorities had any role in religious matters. Here we see the beginning of what, for the time, was a revolutionary doctrine: the separation of church and state. Unfortunately, their lack of involvement in civic affairs led to a lack of protection under the law, and Anabaptists and other radicals were to experience severe persecution in the years ahead. Notwithstanding, variations of Anabaptism spread quickly to such diverse places as the Netherlands, Poland, Transylvania, and Italy. They were the forerunners of today’s Mennonites, Amish, Brethren and related traditions and were a strong influence on the early Baptists who were exposed to them in the Netherlands while in exile from England.

John Calvin
Guillaume Farel, a Frenchman, was a key player early on in the Swiss Reformation in the French language areas. After actively participating in the reform or partial-reform of several French-speaking Swiss cities, including Bern, Lausanne, and Neuchatel, he arrived in Geneva in 1532 where over a period of several years he had great success. By 1536, the city had completely embraced Protestantism. However, while Farel excelled at preaching, teaching, and in debate, he did not consider himself equal to the task of completely reorganizing Geneva’s religious institutions under reformed guidelines. But as fortune would have it a well-known reformer, a religious exile from France, passed through the city at about that time. His name was John Calvin. Calvin was already known for his writings, in particular his Institutes of the Christian Religion, which although at that time was much smaller than the expanded work we now have, was still the most complete presentation of Reformation doctrine to that time. Farel wasted no time in persuading Calvin to stay in Geneva and help with the reorganization of the city.

Calvin’s path in Geneva was not always as smooth as might have been desired, but in due time he succeeded in reorganizing the church there according to the new constitution which he had written, the Ecclesiastical Ordinances. In John Calvin: A Biography (Westminster, 1975), T.H.L. Parker writes:

 * The Ordinances, intended to legislate for the whole of Church life, were composed principally in terms of ministerial function. A well-ordered Church lives under the supervision of the four orders of pastors, doctors (teachers), elders, and deacons. The task of the Church is to preach the Gospel and administer the Sacraments, to teach believers the faith, to train them in obedience, and to care for the afflicted. Broadly, each of these tasks belongs to each of the offices, although there will be some overlapping.

The elders were at the heart of Calvin’s system. In Geneva, the religious and civil authorities worked hand in hand, and the elders were chosen by the civil authorities. They were chiefly responsible for church policy and for discipline. They had the power to excommunicate, or to refer to the civil authorities if more severe punishment was desired. Our modern day Presbyterian churches trace their roots back to this system of Calvin’s. The word Presbyterian comes from the Greek presbyteros, meaning elder. These Presbyterian churches, and others who trace their roots back to Calvin, are often called Reformed, because their doctrine and organization stem from the second wave of the Reformation, which is sometimes thought of as reformed Lutheranism.

The Reformation in England
These developments in the European church had not gone unnoticed in England. Luther’s writings began to circulate in about 1520 causing quite a stir among the more educated members of the population. However, the Reformation was achieved not so much by a grass roots movement as by royal decree from a monarch who had political reasons for breaking with papal authority. Henry VIII wanted a son for an heir and his wife was unable to provide him with one, so he decided to remarry. The story of the pope’s refusal to grant him a divorce and his subsequent break from Rome is a famous one. Nevertheless, the time was ripe for reform in England, for there was large-scale discontent with the Roman church. The king saw the opportunity and took advantage of it. Lollardy, an earlier reform movement in England inspired by the teachings of John Wycliffe, had seen a revival in the early part of Henry’s reign, and the people in general were tired of a church which seemed just as eager to take their money as to save their souls. And since most of the higher clerical positions were political appointees made by Henry himself, there was very little opposition from within the church. In 1534, the Act of Supremacy was passed by parliament in which King Henry was declared to be the head of the Church of England. In turn, Henry made the Archbishop of Canterbury to be the theological spokesman for the church. This would later result in The Book of Common Prayer, the primer for Anglican worship, and the Thirty-Nine Articles, the Anglican document of beliefs.

The Reformation in England suffered a brief setback when Mary came to the throne in 1553. Mary was a Catholic and sought to restore Catholicism in England upon her accession. This led to persecution and the exile of many prominent Protestants to the continent, chiefly the reformed cities of Germany and Switzerland. During this time, the Geneva Bible was produced by some of the exiles in the city from which it takes its name. It was destined to become the standard English translation until the King James Version of 1611.

After a brief reign of only five years, Mary died and Elizabeth I came to the throne. Elizabeth, a Protestant, restored the Reformation, to the satisfaction of the majority of the population. Although some reformers objected to the retention of an episcopal form of church government, there were no major setbacks from this time on and the Reformation was an established fact in England.

John Knox and the Reformation in Scotland
One of the exiles during the time of Mary, and a man who had worked on the Geneva Bible, was John Knox. Although Knox was a Calvinist, he believed that the common people were justified in taking up arms against godless rulers, a view not shared by Calvin. Knox took advantage of a nationalistic fervor which had arisen in Scotland in response to a series of political events which had left the nation largely under the power of France. By linking the causes of Protestantism and Scottish independence, Knox was able to rouse the people into what was both a political and a religious rebellion, and it was extremely successful. In August of 1560, the Scottish Parliament saw no option but to adopt a Calvinistic confession of faith, largely authored by Knox, as the national creed. Papal jurisdiction was abolished a week later and the Mass forbidden.

The Counter-Reformation
Naturally, all of these events caused repercussions within the Roman church. In the middle of the sixteenth century, it made changes in response to the Reformation which are collectively referred to as the Counter-Reformation. The first of them was the creation in Spain in 1540 of the Society of Jesus, whose members are known as Jesuits. They sought to live the Gospel in the world, rather than retreating to monasteries. They became famous for education, missionary work, and unbending loyalty to their organization. This was the most positive Catholic innovation of the sixteenth century. The creation of the Inquisition in 1542 was a less wholesome response to the Protestant Reformation. Its purpose was the elimination of heresy and dissent. History remembers the Inquisition chiefly for its brutality.

The Council of Trent, a major ecumenical council regarded as a milestone in the history of the Catholic church, was a key event of the Counter-Reformation. It consisted of twenty-five meetings held between 1547 and 1563. The overall tone was understandably anti-Protestant, but it was useful in that it codified certain doctrines which had long been practiced in the Roman church. There was little that was conciliatory or new in its decrees, however. It affirmed almost all of the things which had been rejected by the Protestant reformers: salvation through the sacraments; the Latin Vulgate as the only acceptable translation of Scripture; the granting of indulgences; transubstantiation; purgatory; the withholding of the cup from the laity during the mass; and the conducting of masses in Latin rather than in the vernacular. Nevertheless, the church was forced to take a good look at itself and many of the previous abuses were curbed, allowing the church to solidify its position in the areas where it still held sway.

The Religious Map of Europe Redrawn
By the end of the 1500s, the religious map of Europe had changed dramatically. At the beginning of the sixteenth century, Western and Central Europe were almost entirely Catholic, but by the end, most of Germany and Scandinavia were Lutheran; Switzerland, Scotland, Holland and parts of Germany were Calvinist (‘Reformed’); and England was Anglican. In addition, there were pockets of all of these groups, as well as Anabaptists and others, throughout those parts of the continent which were still predominantly Catholic. In political terms, the power of the Catholic church was greatly diminished, and the Reformation nations gained their independence from the influence of Rome. In religious terms, it created a new branch of the church which held to a more biblical approach to Christianity, and it forced the Catholic church to take stock of itself and curb the rampant corruption. So in the end, Luther’s little act of protest in Wittenberg did bring about a measure of reform within Catholicism, but not until half the churches of Europe had seceded.

=Analytical Writing=

Overview
I’ve toyed with what to write about and have really racked my brain on what would be of an acceptable scope and vision. I am a video production student sitting near the end of my bachelor degree so since the program is starting to wind down that means its starting speeding up for the next couple quarters. I am filming my senior project this quarter and have decided that to save my mental health I want to kill two birds with one stone and do a series of journals really breaking down my filmmaking process during my quarter of filming. I want to do a journal piece after each week and in these journals I want to sit down and explain what my team did, how things worked, how I felt about it, what I thought about what we did, how we did what we did and any other thoughts, feelings, and concerns about production.

Rationale
I want to be able to look back on my production notes and be able to learn from them. I also want things to put on the DVD when it’s done and feel that this is a great opportunity to really get something that will add an extra layer to the behind the scenes it will also make an interesting part when we start filming the documentary.

Publication

Schedule

 * 1) week 2
 * 2) week 3
 * 3) week 4
 * 4) etc.

Anticipated Problems
My biggest issue is the fact that I’ll be filming it and juggling 5 classes while doing all this journal writing. On top of all this I will be working about 25-35 hours a week. To compensate for all of this I plan on setting aside at least one day a week to write the journals. I may not be able to write every week so my plan would be to write double the following week.

Week 6 Project Review
As I started filming this movie I started to really reflect on my passion for what I am doing. I’ve been a type of performer my whole life and have always loved story telling. It wasn’t until 2004 that I would latch on to this chosen profession. The summer of 2004 was a life changing few months, I would enter into a six week summer program with a group that helps high school students get in to college called Upward Bound, in the program one must go through a few classes, one of which was a film class where I was to make a documentary or biography. I ended up doing a biography and was the first one done with the project. I had never done any of the process before. It had just come natural. That summer also played heavy on me because I was moving from Montana to Washington, but the most influential part of the whole summer were the two movies I saw that really resonated with me; they were Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11 and M. Night Shymalan’s The Village. Fahrenheit 9/11 was influential because it was the first movie that showed me how a movie can create an emotional response. It was The Village that would bring me to the powerful moment when I would realize that this is what I wanted to do. I remember sitting in the theatre watching M. Night’s gorgeous cinematography, I remember watching as the camera slow panned over a group of dead trees reaching toward the sky faded into the soft blue cloudless sky. It was that moment when I remember saying “this is what I need to do with my life.” I’ve always been a conflicted person. My sheer inability to comprehend anything that is illogical is often over shadowed by my certainty with all things. Since I was in 4th grade I knew what I wanted to do with my life. At one point I wanted to get a Ph.D. in Computer Sciences. Shortly after that I want to be a child psychologist. By my freshman year in high school I wanted to be a chef. One by one I dropped all these and picked up the other until I landed upon my new chosen profession. Making films is something that I really love. Between work and nonsensical general education classes, the only real joy I get at this point is making movies.

On other notes we started filming on Friday and Saturday. I am happy with all the footage and the direction in which we’re taking the picture. Friday we shot at the workshop in Sand Point, which is where scene 2 and 5 take place. 2 is where the main character, River, walks in to find a body and scene 5 is where River has come back to take pictures of the dead body he found in scene 2 but this time he is ambushed by a masked man. On Saturday we shot in the Ballard Train yard where we shot scene 12, which is where River is clearing his mind in the train yard, and gets a call from Charlie, his secretary saying she’s been kidnapped. I am very happy with all the footage and can’t wait until what has been christened “The Weekend From Hell” because it is almost 72 hours of none stop filming.

Before Or During Week 6

 * research: mise-en-cadre (1,000 words)
 * journals: retrospective analysis/regrets/"wish I'd known" etc. 40%journals 60%analysis
 * 2,000 words

Project
My research paper was going to be about the idea of Mese-en-cadre, since that idea basically breaks down to a definition and no history or story behind it. So my paper is going to be about the history of film noir. Noir is of course French for Black. Noir is seen as a genre now, but isn’t really one in the traditional sense. It’s a style more than anything and also unlike other styles, it was not created by some guy in an office who wanted to be a revolutionary it was created out of sheer necessity. The early filmmakers of the 40’s and 50’s were poor and had terrible costumes, worse sets, weak make up (if any) and bad art design. So what were they to do? It was then they took a page from the filmmakers of the 10’s and 20’s, These people were the creators of German Expressionism. German Expressionism came from the painters and photographers of Germany. In the early years of film there were two countries of origins with two different styles and beliefs in film. One was the Russians who believed in faster cuts, odd off kilter shots, and almost a backwards film language. The Germans won out against the Russians as the predominate film style. Just about every movie we watch nowadays is from the stylings of the German filmmaking. German filmmaking is how we see film now. It’s slower cuts and a very set way of unraveling stories. They use a method where if there is a character moving toward a door you must see them get to then enter the door before changing to another place this was made very famous by Alfred Hitchcock. The Germans also use slower cuts and show more of the scene through “coverage”, the different shots. They use the traditional establishing shot, wide shot, medium shot, close up, while the Russians didn’t see the point in using the wide shots or establishing. An establishing shot is the farthest shot a filmmaker can use, it is a shot to show the general area of where the action is taking place so the viewers can orient themselves in the scene. A wide shot is a far shot showing the characters in the space, it’s closer than the establishing shot. The medium shot is a shot of the character or subject from the waist up. The last shot in the sequence is the close up which is typically the shoulders up. Going back to the main question. What were they suppose to do? With their bad costumes, make up, sets, etc. Drench it all in shadows. They didn’t have a lot of money for lights and other equipment so they used the stuff they had to make an eerie mood. The basic light set up for media is called a “three point” lighting set up. This is made up of a “key” light which is the main source of light on the subject, a “fill” light which fills in the subject and helps model the subjects features, the final is a “back” light which pulls the subject from the background. The key and fill light are placed at a diagonal on the right and left of the subject but still in front of them. In media light ratios are key. A light ratio is how hot the key light is to the fill light. They light TV very flat for speed and easy. A flat light ratio is 2:1 which means that if the key light is 50 foot candles (a foot candle is how much light is seen from a candle 1 foot away, so 50 foot candles is how much light is seen from 50 candles 1 foot away) then the key light must be 25 foot candles. Movies have a more dramatic ratio of any where from 3:1 to 5:1. Film Noir has a stronger ratio still of 7:1 to 10:1. This 10:1 ratio gives a brighter side to where the other side has just enough light to keep the subject from complete darkness. Besides being just a sheer necessity film noir came from the peril and gloom of the Second World War. The darkness of the world mood showed a need for the same feeling to be shown in media. Noir is characterized by dark lighting, plots about detectives and femme fatales. It’s often set in the mean, dark city and quite often it rains. The characters are often tortured souls and most of the time are broken emotionally. The people are dark and brooding and often are intelligent. Some of the greatest noir pictures include “The Maltese Falcon”, “Double Indemnity”, and “M”. After the hay day of noir past a new era in noir started it would be known as “Neo noir” or “Post noir”. The likes of which would mostly be a throw back to noir as a genre. “Neo Noir” would keep all the same characteristics as Noir, but incorporate some new ideas and twists into the genre. Some of the new things Neo Noir has brought to the table past Noir is more of a sci fi or surrealistic plot, such as “Alien” or “Sin City”, color has also been added, adding a different look and feel to the movie that wasn’t there in the black and white days of film noir. Noir is one of the strongest and longest running genres. In my opinion it is the only genre that has been consistently great over all the years. With it’s stunning visuals and dark powerful plots, brooding characters and amazing technical background Noir is the quintessential genre for great cinema. Noir is a terrific example of how necessity can create greatness. It’s 20 year run has inspired directors for generations and is continuing to change the way we see film.

Tuesday March 16, 2010

We are nearing the end of filming. On Wednesday we film some reshoots for most of the scenes because we realized to make things a bit easier in the editing room we have to have more close ups then we have currently. I hate having to do reshoots because they are a pain in the ass. They basically entail having to recreate the lighting for the scene the shot has to be cut into and then we have to match performances and movements. It’s not nearly as much fun as the actual filming. Luckily we have a great cast who can do anything we ask. Friday we are filming the final 2 scenes in Pioneer Square. They scenes are the bookends of my movie where the main character talks to his friend, Sam the Saxophonist, who is a kind of informant to him. After a short exchange Sam plays a song for him that is the key to the whole movie. The final scene is River talking to Sam again after the events of the movie have played out. I really love doing this stuff. The more we get into this movie the more I realize how much I hate producing stuff. The business end irritates me at least in pat because I hate begging people to let me do things. I hate having to ask random people if I can use a location to film or if I can borrow something to make a scene work. My co-director and I are looking to find a producer, editor and P.A.s for our future projects so we don’t have to worry about those things. We have most of a crew but it breaks down to we have a few positions that we need to fill to have a solid team. With that being said I love what we have. I can’t wait to get into editing to make this A MOVIE.

Tuesday March 23, 2010 We spoke with Mr. Glover today and showed him the rough cut. He told me and my co director that there are some fixes that need to be done to make this movie as solid as it should be. The characters motivation isn’t as strong as it should be and there is a missed opportunity because there is no scene where my villain and her puppet actually meet up alone. So we have to shoot one more day of pick up shots and another day of filming. I am not sure where or how that last day of filming will go down though. We might just shoot it in the studio so it’s not nearly as hard as finding a location but I wouldn’t be against go somewhere and shooting it on location like the rest of the movie. I am excited to get this thing done. I’ve juggled school, my movie, and work all of which need a lot of my attention. The best way to do this is to deal with one at a time as it comes up.

2. At the student section in the middle of the textbox, add your details similar to that of the other students and save it.

3. Goto http://en.wikiversity.org/w/index.php?title=User:Mohashie&action=edit

4. Add the lines:

at the end of the text box and save it and your job should be done.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Bonny. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Bonny~enwikiversity that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:31, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Alex,

It sounds like this is coming along well. I'm looking forward to reading it.
 * Best, Stevenarntson

 * Alex,

How is this coming along? Are you on chapter 3, as planned?
 * Best, Stevenarntson

 * Alex,

This looks good--in terms of word count, I think it would be reasonable to estimate that each chapter will be 500-800 words. I'd like to see you fill out the rest of the schedule for the quarter, building in some time to revise and such before the quarter is finished, just to polish things.
 * Good luck! Stevenarntson

Your Statement of Intent is due today--please post, and drop me an email to let me know it's up.

User talk:BrittanyW

 * Brittany,

One aspect of the "green" trend, I find, is that often people over-simplify the issues. I think it would be great for you to create two different projects along this line: first, the resource guide you write about here. Second, a personal essay about the process you went through to decide what you would include and what you wouldn't. I'd love to talk to you about some of the things you're considering including as the quarter goes by. It's an interest of mine, and I'll probably have an idea or two.
 * Good luck!

 * Danae,

Are you writing as much as you'd hoped? I wasn't sure on reading your midterm assessment if you felt like you were keeping up with your schedule or not. Let me know if I can help, or look at drafts, &c.
 * Best, Stevenarntson

 * Danae,

How is this coming along? I don't see a schedule on your page, so I'm not sure where you'd hoped to be at by now (midterm). Let me know if you've got any questions!
 * Best, Stevenarntson

 * Danae,

This seems like a good project. I'd like to see more detail in terms of your weekly schedule--feel free to post anytime this week, and drop me an email to let me know you've done it.

I'd also like to encourage you to use subpages on your wiki to organize these sketches--it will look much nicer on your userpage. I added one to the bottom of your main page, so you can see what they look like and how they're constructed. Let me know if you have questions.

Good luck!
 * Stevenarntson

Hey, Mr. Arnston, Thanks for your messages, I didn't get them until recently. I realized I forgot to post my work!!!! So I did that. I would have done it sooner but I kept forgetting it, and I was all set to post it Friday, but I was travelling home. As you can see, I only completed half my estimated number of studies, which I meant to discuss with you Week 11. I went for quality rather than quantity.

A faster way to get a hold of me is my email- thegreyhawke@aol.com

Thanks and have a great break!

Homework4

I already registered and join the secondlife.com. Also already play the online game. I feel that it is like a chatting game. I think it is ok...Talk with many people that I doesn't know them.

1..What are MMOGs and how do they differer from regular video games?

Ans : The obvious difference is the # of game players. The MMOGs or Massively multiplayer Online Game can support a lot lot lot!!!!! of players in one time (Synchronizely& Simultaneously). This type of game requires to access the Internet also. Regular video game does not support massive player numbers. May be about one player up to four or five players, and regular video game does not need the Internet too.

2. Would there be stresses in living in a virtual world?

Ans : I think it depends on who play the games. There are two types of game players, which are not serious players, and serious players. As we know, virtual world is the world that human and programmers build or generate them. It is not the real life. We lose money in the virtual world doesn't mean that we lose money in the real world, but for some games it isn't. Some people use real money for trading in the games. However, it is depends on the games that people play and how much the players serious with the games. There may be some other factors that involves, such as gambling, flirting, chatting, and so on.

3. Look at e-bay and see what is being sold from secondlife and other on-line game forum. Is the economy from these games real?

Ans : Sometimes, they use real money to pay for money or inventory in the online games. In the secondlife.com, many people buy clothes(in the game) by money, so I think that online game is another thing that related to economic and we can see that sometimes, they trade things in eBay, also with many other online games, such as DOTA, Ragnarok, and so on.

"Homework 4"

1.What are MMOGs and how do they differer from regular video games?

- MMOGs are video games that can support hundreds or thousands of players at the same time. The difference between MMOGs and regular video is that the number of players. Hundreds or thousands can use MMOGs at the same time, and they have to play game on the Internet and feature at least one persistent world. On the other hand, regular video game can be played only with 1-4 people at the same time and Internet is not necessary.

2.Would there be stresses in living in a virtual world?

- It depends on personal behavior. For example, if the players feel that everything in the virtual world is not in the real world for people who play game when they just want to relax and stay away from real world for a while. They will have no stress when they live in a virtual world. In contrast, if the players play seriously will feel stressed or some of them might exchange items from virtual world to the real world.

3.Look at e-bay and see what is being sold from secondlife and other on-line game forum. Is the economy from these games real?

- Yes, the economy from the game is real. In some games, users can exchange in the Internet with the real money. For example, clothing items is sold from the secondlife.
