It seems that when it comes to video games based off of movies and TV shows, it's best to go into them with low expectations. That way you won't be too disappointed when you find out that, once again, a movie-based video game turns out rather poorly. One exception as of the past couple of years seems to be games based on Transformers. In fact, three of the previous games reviewed here on Gaming Nexus scored around a B or higher (Fall of Cybertron, War for Cybertron, and Dark of the Moon), so for once, I went into a TV-based video game with some high expectations, but can the success of past games carry over to a game based off an animated series? Let's find out with Transformers Prime for the Nintendo 3DS.
To begin with, I knew nothing about Transformers Prime going into this, just that it was a CGI animated series. Thankfully, you don't need to know anything about the series to understand the game itself (trust me, I've played a few games in which if you don't know anything about what it's based on, you're screwed when it comes to understanding the story). As the story begins, the Autobots detect a large amount of dark energon nearby some Decepticon readings. Optimus Prime, Arcee, Bumblebee, and Bulkhead head out to a meteor where the readings were coming from, which was tethered to Megatron's ship. The Autobots take out the tethers and prevent Megatron from intervening. However, something cracks the meteor, splits its it apart into pieces, and sends the Autobots falling towards the planet below. This is where the main part of the game begins (though you do control Optimus Prime while on the meteor, it pretty much acts as the games tutorial).
In each stage you control a different Autobot through that part of the story (at this point, the four Autobots have been split up, so Ratchet heads out to find them). The controls don't take too long to get the hang of as each Autobot pretty much does the same thing. While you're not transformed (if there's a better Transformer-related term for this mode, I have no idea what it is) you can perform combo attacks by hitting the attack button up to three times. You can also hit the jump button after the first or second attack to change up the combo a bit, and hitting jump after the first attack will perform a shield-breaking combo for when the Decepticons have shields. While transformed you can move faster (obviously), jump over large gaps, and perform attacks that can break shields and return you to normal mode. As you defeat enemies, a green upgrade gauge fills up at the top of the screen. Once full you can tap the touch screen to upgrade your attacks for a limited amount of time. This is all you'll use the touch screen for (aside for the radar/map), but to me, that's fine, as I hate it when a game overuses a gimmick such as the touch screen or motion controls. Too much of a good thing isn't necessarily a good thing.
You can also lock onto enemies and strafe in either mode which makes it easier to focus on an enemy and attack them, especially when using your blaster. However, this is where I found what I think is the only real misstep with the controls. While locked on you can use left and right on the D-Pad to switch your target. There are two things I don't like about that. First, since you move with the circle pad, you have to stop moving to switch targets. If you have to switch targets, it's likely because another Decepticon is firing at you and you'll get blasted as you're trying to lock onto it. I'm sure other people are better at switching targets than me. Second, don't think you can swap targets by simply letting go of the targeting button and facing another target if they're too close together, as more than likely you'll just target the first enemy again.. Beyond that, the targeting system works pretty nicely when it comes to focusing your attacks on one enemy.
Each Autobot has a couple different things about them so it doesn't feel like you're playing the same character in each stage. For instance, Bulkhead may move slower, but he seems to be able to take more damage than the other Autobots, while Bumblebee moves a bit quicker and can also attack quicker, especially with his blaster. Throughout the game you'll play as each Autobot around one to three times (I believe Ratchet is the only one of the five you play once). At the end of at least one of the early stages for each Autobot, you'll face off against a certain Decepticon. Once the game nears the end and everything starts to come together, the Autobots will settle the score with their Decepticon counterparts (Arcee vs. Airachnid, Bumblebee vs. Starscream, etc.). Once you've completed the main story though, don't think you're done yet.
Throughout the game you'll find energon artifacts you can collect in each stage, with each stage having between one to three artifacts. Picking these up will unlock things like character profiles and concept art. You can also unlock emblems depending on how you clear the stages, such as clearing a stage with an A rank or better or getting through a certain part of the stage without taking damage. The emblems are the equivalent of in-game achievements and there are a lot to collect. Some of them you'll get just for clearing the stage. Some you'll get for clearing a stage with an A rank or better. I can pretty much guarantee that A or S ranking every stage will unlock most of the single player emblems, and it's not too hard to do so. The story mode isn't all that hard, and even the boss fights didn't give me too much trouble. Heck, it took me more tries to take down Megatron than the final boss, which was a two part battle with a small driving section in the middle.
Finally, let's talk multiplayer for a moment. If you go to multiplayer right out of the box, it kind of sucks. There's only one stage and five characters, the five main Autobots in the game (Optimus, Arcee, Bumblebee, Bulkhead, and Ratchet). However, as you play though the main story, you'll unlock more characters and stages to a total of five stages and eleven characters (five Autobots and six Decepticons). There are three modes in multi-player: Brawl, Energon Battle, and Emblem Match, and each mode can be played with one to four players locally or against the AI (sorry, no wi-fi multiplayer that I've seen). Brawl sounds like your typical free-for-all, and it is…except you only have one life. Once you die, that's it, you're done. Last bot standing wins. In Emblem Match, whoever has the emblem the longest wins, simple as that. The problem is that if you have the emblem, you don't have to die to lose it. Anytime I had the emblem, I'd lose it after only being hit once or twice. The mode I enjoy playing is Energon Mode. Here, you get ten points every time you defeat an opponent and you lose five points when you get defeated. The most points at the end wins. THIS is what I figured Brawl Mode would be like. Granted you always start with very little energy, but it's pretty fast paced, so you'll be dying a lot, but it's still fun to play. Each mode also has a few things you can change about them, but they're mostly time, items, and eternal upgrade (always have upgraded weapons without filling up your green gauge).
Overall, I mostly enjoyed my time with Transformers Prime. A lot of TV- or movie-to-game adaptations tend to fail, but it seems like Transformers has been nailing it lately. Granted the story mode isn't all that hard and multiplayer is lacking early on until you unlock more stages and characters, if you have a younger gamer into Transformers, especially Transformers Prime, I'd say give it a shot. The animation and voice acting are pretty well done, and I keep finding myself checking out Energon Battle in multiplayer. However, experienced gamers might find it a bit too easy overall. Again, my only real difficulty was in a later battle against Megatron, but the final boss after that was pretty simple. The bosses are simply a matter paying attention and remembering that you can block attacks with your shield. Just be patient, see what they do, then counter it with your own attacks.

Saft to Supply On-Board Batteries for Sukhoi's Superjet 100 Regional Passenger Plane
Batteries will power APU start-up and emergency back-up systems on Russian project.
PARIS -- Sukhoi Superjet 100 family of regional passenger planes, the first series of aircraft to emerge from Russia's rejuvenated civil aerospace industry, will rely on Saft rechargeable nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries to provide starting power for the on-board APU (auxiliary power unit) as well as supporting vital emergency back-up systems.
The Sukhoi Superjet 100, designed and developed by Sukhoi Civil Aircraft Company and marketed jointly with Alenia Aeronautica, is the first ever civil aircraft to be delivered to the market by Sukhoi, and it forms part of the aircraft manufacturer's long term programme to achieve an eventual 40:40 balance between military and civil production balanced by services. It is a modern, fly-by-wire regional jet in the 75 to 95 seat category. The first test flight took place on May 19, 2008 with certification forseen by mid 2009 and the first deliveries are scheduled in 3Q09.
To date, Sukhoi Superjet 100 has secured nearly 100 solid orders plus 40 options for the SSJ100, and targets to acquire 17 percent of the world's regional passenger plane market with some 1000 aircraft to be sold over the next 20 years.
Four 24 V Saft Ni-Cd battery systems will be installed on each SSJ100. They have full approval from both EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) and the Russian airworthiness authorities.
The key factors that persuaded Sukhoi Civil Aircraft Company to specify Saft batteries for the Sukhoi Superjet 100 project were the demonstrated reliability and low TCO (total cost of ownership) of Ni-Cd technology in critical aviation applications, combined with Saft's strong local representation and extensive worldwide sales and service network that enables it to support a global programme. Saft's involvement goes well beyond supplying the batteries as it is also providing maintenance training and auditing of the major battery facilities in Russia with the assistance of its local technical representative, Trace Russia.

Lt. Chad Hawkins of the Sparks Police Department said Saturday that the incident, which occurred just after 11 p.m. Friday in the Nugget parking garage, isn't really even a mark on the event since it occurred several hours after its official closing time. Police initially reported that the suspect, 28-year-old Harold Nolte of Sparks, and the victim, a 25-year-old local woman, and several others were wearing clothing consistent with membership in a local outlaw motorcycle gang. Later, police said the incident appeared to be a fight between two people who earlier had been eating dinner together at a local restaurant and were drunk and was not related to gang activity.
Nolte was charged with battery with a deadly weapon and possession of a dangerous weapon. The victim was treated at a hospital for minor injuries.
Other than that, "It's been quiet," Hawkins said under a warm sun as crowds walked up and down Victorian Square on Saturday — not even any intoxication problems.
Randy Burke, president of Street Vibrations promoter Roadshows Inc., said this year's spring rally is seeing more vendors and registered bikers than last spring's event. The smaller spring event, with between 5,000 and 10,000 attendees, helps kick off the summer events season and precedes the larger fall rally, which draws between 35,000 and 50,000 people, Burke said.
Among the attendees at last fall's event were members of the Hells Angels and Vagos motorcycle gangs. A shooting between members of the two gangs led to the death of Jeffrey "Jethrow" Pettigrew, president of the Hells Angels chapter in San Jose, Calif. As a result, the Sparks portion of the event was shut down a day-and-a-half early, vendors were sent home and police locked down the city until the event ended.
Ernesto Manuel Gonzalez, 53, a Nicaraguan Vagos motorcycle club chapter president, has been charged with Pettigrew's murder. Gonzalez was arraigned Thursday in Washoe District Court on open murder and conspiracy to commit murder based on a different theory after new facts were discovered in the case, Chief Deputy District Attorney Karl Hall told the Reno Gazette-Journal.
Also charged in the incident that occurred on a dance floor in the casino was Gary "Jabbers" Rudnick, also a member of the Vagos. In March, Rudnick pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit murder. Cesar Villagrana, who authorities say is part of the Hells Angels, is free on bail awaiting an Oct. 29 trial on second-degree murder, battery with a deadly weapon and conspiracy charges, with Gonzalez as a co-defendant.
To quell any fear that might hover over this weekend's event, Sparks police had a greater and more visible presence at the motorcycle rally. Officers mingled in the crowd and uniformed SWAT team members could be seen sitting in an unmarked vehicle at one end of the events, while a marked police car sat at the other end so attendees could see it as they entered. Burke added that event staff were wearing bright blue shirts with "Rally Crew" in big letters so attendees could see them more clearly, and all staff were told to be extra vigilant as they could be needed as witnesses if anything should happen.
But overall, last year's incident seemed to be light years away from this weekend's event, as participants, attendees and merchants went about their business enjoying the warm weather and hot bikes. Jay Winter, owner of Hardcore 1550 biker clothing and accessories from Fremont, Calif., said this was his third spring rally and he plans to return later this year for his tenth fall Street Vibrations. In the fall, Winter parks his custom trailer in downtown Reno so he wasn't affected by last September's shutdown in Sparks, though he said some fellow vendors lost as much as $20,000 by closing down early. He agreed with the decision made by authorities, however, in reacting to the shooting by securing the area.
"No one wants to lose money, but it was one of those things," he said. "If it would have poured rain that weekend it would have been the same."
Kris Jeakins of Sparks was at the event with his wife and three sons, ages 5, 5 and 2.
"I feel comfortable down here," said Jeakins, who was waiting with his family to watch the stunt riders perform.
Longtime bikers Gary and Sherry Watkins rumbled into town Saturday for the second straight day, cruising up from their home in Carson City. They have been coming to Street Vibrations for many years for "the people, the bikes, the freedom," and weren't worried about any violence.
"It's too bad because 98 percent of the people come here to have fun and 2 percent blow it for everybody else," Gary said.
"I hope it doesn't happen again," Sherry said. "I was really worried they were going to stop it (Street Vibrations)."
As part of a larger effort to promote the summer's coming attractions, Burke invited representatives from other events to set up booths and pass out information. Among them was the Reno National Championship Air Races, which this year is dealing with its own image issues after last year's first-ever crash involving spectators. On Sept. 16, a P-51 Mustang smashed into the ground near the VIP section, killing 11 people, including pilot Jimmy Leeward, and injuring more than 60 others.
Valerie Miller-Moore, director of marketing and public relations for the Reno Air Race Association, said Saturday she had been busy talking to many out-of-area tourists on Victorian Square conveying the message that the races will continue this year and that all the necessary permits and insurance are in place. She said that Street Vibrations is a natural fit because many motorcycle enthusiasts also are plane enthusiasts.
"Motor heads love anything with an engine in it," she said. "We fit right in their category."

We did Good News from a Grave last March and it was a huge success. Many in our congregation told me it was the best musical we have done and I have been doing this for 25 years. Your tips and ideas are so helpful. The kids were so thrilled to be the bucket dancers or the broom brigade. It was great to have so many options - soloists, speaking parts, plus the bucket and broom dancers. Everyone had a chance to do something special. I will let you know how Donkey Tales goes.
Thanks again,
Good News from a Grave

The prologue has prepared us to see nothing less than the coming of the divine light, the Son of God, revealing the glory of God, full of grace and truth. The Son comes on the scene in the context of the ministry of John the Baptist. Jesus' first followers come from among the Baptist's disciples, and then several others are gathered together. All of this is preparation for the revelation of the glory beginning in chapter 2. With a core of disciples in place from the beginning who will be able to witness to everything (15:27), Jesus is ready to reveal God to them. In 2:1—4:54 the glory is revealed with increasing intensity with each story, for God's grace is evident in each of these opening stories. Finally, after one more climactic revelation of the glory (5:1-15), the light is shining so brightly that the darkness responds and the conflict begins (5:16-18). At this point Jesus gives his first major public teaching, a keynote address (5:19-30), which is followed by a series of confirming witnesses (5:31-40) and concludes with Jesus' condemning accusation against his opponents (5:41-47). In this way chapter 5 is a transitional text, rounding off this opening section and beginning the next. The conflict that starts at that point will continue throughout the story as the light continues to shine in the darkness and the darkness fails to grasp it.

I'm so jealous that Westport is just a town away for you! When my boys were at Choate and we went to visit, I always planned a trip down there, alone, to shop. It doesn't surprise me that they have a Terrain there. How lucky you are. ;o)

European stock markets posted stellar gains as investors returning from the New Year's break cheered a deal in Washington to avert spending cuts and tax increases widely seen as potentially threatening a U.S. recession.
The Stoxx Europe 600 index jumped 2% to end at 285.33, the highest closing level since February 2011. The U.K.'s FTSE 100 index advanced 2.2% to 6027.37, while Germany's DAX rose 2.2% to 7778.78. France's CAC-40 gained 2.6% to 3733.93.
The U.S. congressional compromise illustrates difficulties modern democracies face in producing fiscal-policy solutions, especially when central banks are keeping monetary policy so easy. Dow Jones' s David Cottle looks at the problem. Photo: Getty Images
Late Tuesday, Congress broke a prolonged stalemate, passing legislation that allowed the U.S. to avoid an austerity package that would have taken effect in the absence of a deal. The bill represented the biggest tax increase in two decades and was passed despite objections from conservative Republicans in the House.
In two months, $110 billion in spending cuts delayed by Tuesday's package will again kick in, making another battle in Congress all but inevitable. At the same time, the U.S. will need to increase its borrowing limit, a change that can only be made by Congress.
"We still have upcoming challenges with the debt limit debate, but a lot of people left the stock market, and they need to come back," said Michael Strauss, chief investment strategist at Commonfund, in Wilton, Conn. In early afternoon in New York, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 222 points, or 1.7%, to 13326, for a second consecutive session of triple-digit gains. The blue-chip Dow had rallied 166 points, or 1.3%, on New Year's Eve, to close out a year of solid returns.
Haven investments such as U.S. Treasury debt, which have been supported by concern that over the so-called fiscal cliff, lost ground. The benchmark U.S. 10-year notes were down 27/32, to yield 1.841% as European markets closed, while March Bunds were down 157 ticks to 144.07 in Germany.
The euro initially rallied, rising well above $1.32, but slipped back to $1.3163, down from $1.3195 late Monday in New York.
Yields on 10-year Spanish and Italian government debt fell to their lowest levels since March 2011 and December 2010, respectively.
Mining stocks, whose performance is closely tied to the overall economy, posted sharp gains in Europe, getting an extra boost from news that manufacturing activity in China continued to expand at a modest pace in December. The Stoxx 600 index for basic resources rose 4.6%.
Copper futures in New York rose to a 10-week high, while oil, another commodity that marches to the global economic drum, was up $1.28 at $93.10 on the New York Mercantile Exchange as European equity markets closed. Oil was above $93 a barrel for the first time since October.

Fred, very nimble looking Icelandic elves with great shoes. Love the colours of the mountains.
Marsha, a beautiful Santa. I love his beard and eyes, they are fantastic. Also like that the colour of his hat is echoed in the spruce boughs. So glad your back, and I also agree that Christmas can be a difficult time. It is great to see your wonderful art work.
Bonnie C & C most welcome / appreciated
Bonnie, thank you and Merry Christmas to you, too.
Charlie Gunn
C&C welcomed
Fred...Your Icelandic Elves knocks me out! Those colors and textures are fantastic!
Charlie..What a beautiful old work Santa! Those colors are perfect and so festive!
Marsha...I remember when you did the Santa in the green hat and love it now as much as I did then!
Joyce..First I am happy you're feeling better. I missed why you've been under the weather but I'm glad you're on the mend. Your first daisies are wonderful and I really like how you've laid in your background color. Your second daisies done in ink, pastel and ink are just beautiful. What a good job you've done on both of them!
Leticia...Your recipe is great! I think I have all the ingredients I need to make that. :)
Alexandra...lol, most of my art disasters are due to operator failure ;) So, no, Santa does not need to bring me any paper! I have drawing, sketching, printing, watercolor in blocks, roll and sheet along with a 3ft. tall, 23 inches around roll of sketch paper with a heavy plastic tube running up the middle of it for mounting that someone gave me a couple of weeks ago! It's so heavy that my daughter had to move it and I had to roll it into my storage area! I'm not sure where he found it but a coworker came out of the basement at work with this log of paper and asked me if I wanted it. Of course I did! I can draw life size figures on it!
Catherine Brown
C&C's are welcome.
(No digital alterations please)
Another charcoal with the putty rubber eraser and graphite. I love charcoal and graphite! The effects you can achieve are magical! Eventually, I'll get better with it but baby steps will get me there. 5x6 on white sketch paper. The moth/butterfly was what interested me about this photo challenge. This is the best picture I could get of it.
Catherine, beautiful moth/butterfly painting.
Charlie, I didn't notice right away that you put Marsha's Georgie Bear in your Santa's arms. What a good idea. Good job of it, too.
Catherine, what a nice, loose rendering of the daisy and butterfly. The center of the flower is very well done with good textures and values. The petals also have some good values. It's lovely.
Sam/Sammy C & C Welcome
Visit my blog at www.artbysamh.blogspot.com
Thank you Charlie and Sam :) I like loose/suggestive images a lot because you can use your imagination to make it your own personal experience. I liked the lightness and how delicate that little moth/butterfly was in the photo and that was harder to depict than one would think. I suppose I could have done more to it but I'm finally embracing the fact that I just don't have a lot of time to get too involved each day with my art so I'm settled with doing something each day, signing it and moving on to the next art moment/learning lesson and this feels like the right thing for me right now.
********* To everyone here....Have a very, very happy and Merry Christmas! I hope Santa brings you lots of fun things!
Fred ~ I'm glad the elves in Iceland are busy! Love the cave top - stalagtites??
Charlie ~ HO HO HO!! Your acrylic painting is so festive! Santa has his hands full and I like the greenery that surrounds him! Good job!
Comments and critiques are welcome.
Marsha ~ Love the colors in your Santa WC! He looks good with a green nightcap and I agree with everything Sam said. His spectacles are fabulous!
Catherine ~ Graphite and charcoal are my favorites too! You did a great job on the daisy w/butterfly - nice and bold! I agree with you that sometimes you just have to do a small drawing or something you can finish in one sitting because there is not enough time. I'm looking forward to the quiet of January and February!!!
Thank you, Nealey.
Catherine, this is a lovely charcoal and graphite daisy. The butterfly wings are so delicate and the daisy petals and center stand out nicely.
Thank you everyone, I loved doing that santa,
Charlie, I went back and looked at your santa again and sure enough ... there was Georgie... my cute little guy.. lovin it...
Catherine: love the charcoal daisy, it is truly beautiful and jumps right off of the page....
Pastel Teachers' hands are usually chalk-full. (by Marsha Ross)
C & C Always Welcome
MARSHA, glad you like him.
I wanted to get in at least ONE Christmassy type drawing this month. For Christmas I bought my granddaughter an artist set in a cool purple metal box! So I had to get some multimedia paper for her!!! Of course I had to try it out!! This is Brooke ready for her Christmas concert last week. I'm leaving it on the first page of the pad as a surprise. It's pencil, ink & watercolor. 5" x 8"

Works with the following products:
Freestyle® Spare Parts Kit | Medela based on 6 votes.
I don't usually write reviews, but I'm compelled to write one because I was very impressed by Medela customer service. I ordered 1 spare kit. The product package wasn't sealed properly. I called Medela customer service. They said the package should have been properly sealed and would send me a replacement right away. I was expecting to receive 1 replacement, but they sent me extra ones. This is one of the best customer service I ever received. The FreeStyle pump and the spare kit have been working great.
I've heard from some people that these need frequent replacement but I haven't had to replace mine yet and they are used several times a day for the past 6 months. If I have an issue with suction, I check and make sure all the little flaps are in their notches (usually just pop open and then reclose the cover without having to move anything, it just pops where it should). If all those are in right and I'm still having a little bit of suction issue, I just crack the seal on them WHILE pumping to get more air into the system and it works like a charm. Only have to do that occasionally and only at the start of pumping, from there on out its great.
I agree with everything Brittany Isner had to comment. I have the exact same issue - in fact, mine makes funny noises when it isn't suctioning as well - and it's always just one side. In fact, I've begun to think it's one of the spare part kits -but I haven't been diligent enough yet to mark it and wash it separately so I never know which one it is. I think it's ridiculous that you can't by the membrane separately - although it does seem to do well as long as everything's together right and that suction issue isn't occurring. I don't have the bra, I didn't want to spend the extra money on it - so I just have the plastic attachments. What would the world be like if they had plastic claws instead of smooth plastic attachments. I can't tell you how many times mine have come unhitched just as I'm hitching the other tether strips. Sometimes it is actually comical. For as much as I paid for the pump, I ,must admit, I was disappointed that it didn't come with the bra too. I do have two bravado bras that the plastic tethers do attach to, but they won't attach to the bravado cami that I bought - very disappointing b/c who wants to wear a bra when they're wearing a boob cami already?
I've always heard you need to replace your membranes every 90 days to maintain suction. I don't need the whole kit! I bought a spare kit when I went back to work to make it easier by not having to wash parts every night. Now I need to replace the membranes and I have to pay for a third set of spare parts. Why does the Pump In Style Advanced have a pack of membranes only available and this pump does not? Also I agree with other commenters about the pieces needing to be squeezed together to maintain suction. Usually it's just one side and I can still do a little bit of one handed typing (I pump at my desk so I can continue to work) but it's not ideal. It doesn't happen every time at least, but if I really need to get something done and I can't squeeze the parts, my pumping output and milk supply suffer.
The system works fairly well but my spare part did start losing suction a few weeks into using it and needed to be squeezed together to maintain suction. This really defeats the purpose of it being hands free especially since I use this with the hands free bra. I have also had trouble with the battery before not charging but once I remove the battery and reset it it was fine. Overall I am happy with the system and it's easy to use.
I have this system and feel it works fairly well. My only frustration is that after a few weeks the parts start to loose suction and need to be squeezed together to maintain good suction leaving you less than hands free. However, when it works it works really well. I have to pump 3 times a day at work and mainly pump at home too.

All new companies start with an idea. When angel investors put their money into a company, they give that idea a chance to generate a business. These businesses generate revenue. That revenue generates jobs. Those jobs create revenue for Oklahoma.
About 10 of every 100 entrepreneurial ideas that i2E sees actually develop into businesses. About one in 10 of those businesses demonstrates the potential to create and sustain quality jobs and create new wealth for Oklahoma.
The tipping point for this economic impact is about five years.
Within the first couple of years after angel investment, such new companies typically will launch a single product, create three new jobs, and produce around $100,000 in revenue. In i2E's experience, entrepreneurial businesses that become successful companies average 18 jobs and produce seven products with revenue of $3 million or more.
Most of these companies have their roots in the science and technology sectors. They pay higher than average wages and offer significant economic leverage by serving from markets outside the state. Oklahoma angel investment led Oklahoma City-based Search and Clear to develop its document collaboration technology in Oklahoma rather than California.
That's an economic development slam dunk.
But economic benefits aren't the only reason angel investment is important to Oklahoma.
From the supply chain interaction between new businesses and other companies, to exciting job opportunities for the graduates of Oklahoma's colleges and universities, to the feet on the street going to Bricktown for dinner or a basketball game, an entrepreneurial economy makes Oklahoma more vibrant and a better place to live.
Angel investors tend to work out of the spotlight behind the scenes. You may not see them, but when entrepreneurial companies appear and succeed, you know they are there. And when angels are there, Oklahoma benefits.

Beatles News: Paul McCartney nearly hit by pop princesses car, premieres new videos starring Natalie Portman and Johnny Depp
by craig on Apr.14, 2012, under FUNNIES, LINKS, ROCK NEWS, VIDEO
Last night (Apr. 13) at an exclusive screening event at the Stella McCartney store in Los Angeles, Paul McCartney premiered his brand new, self directed videos for his song 'My Valentine'. The track is one of two original compositions on his new studio album 'Kisses on the Bottom', which was released in February of this year and went to Number One on the Billboard chart.
The gala premiere event hosted by Paul and Stella saw the likes of Orlando Bloom, Jordana Brewster, Julie Delpy, Zooey Deschanel, Jane Fonda, Dave Grohl and Nate Mendel of Foo Fighters, Woody Harrelson, Joan Jett, Quincy Jones, Miranda Kerr, Jason Lewis, Lykke Li, Chris Martin, Jayma Mays, Gwyneth Paltrow, Richard Perry, James Ransone, Amy Smart, Gwen Stefani and Tony Kanal of No Doubt, Kristen Stewart, Rumer Willis, Reese Witherspoon and more applauding Paul's visual interpretations of 'My Valentine' featuring Natalie Portman and Johnny Depp each translating the lyrics of the song into sign language--each giving distinctly different performances, making both videos compelling viewing. A third version combined both Natalie and Johnny's performances into one film. Watch the videos below and read the entire story here: www.paulmccartney.com
Paul's video premiere psrty went off without a hitch, but there was a chance that it would not have happened and it would have been all pop star Demi Lovato's fault. Lovato was lucky enough to meet Sir Paul, just not in the way she envisioned.
Lovato tweeted earlier this week (April 9) and revealed that she had nearly hit a pedestrian while parking her car. "So ... today I was pulling into a parking space that some guys were standing in the middle of, and almost hit them," Demi explained. "When one of the guys turned around ... it was a BEATLE ... Yes, YOU HEARD ME ... SIR PAUL McCARTNEY!!!"
Apparently, Sir Paul took the incident in stride. "He was so sweet!! Can't believe I met him today ... WOW!" Demi said. Lovato was close to being public enemy #1!

1, 2 Chronicles (Preacher's Commentary, Volume 10)by Leslie C. Allen
General editor Lloyd J. Ogilvie brings together a team of skilled and exceptional communicators to blend sound scholarship with life-related illustrations. The design for the Preacher's Commentary gives the reader an overall outline of each book of the Bible. Following the introduction, which reveals the author's approach and salient background on the book, each chapter of the commentary provides the Scripture to be exposited. The New King James Bible has been chosen for the Preacher's Commentary because it combines with integrity the beauty of language, underlying Hebrew and Greek textual basis, and thought-flow of the 1611 King James Version, while replacing obsolete verb forms and other archaisms with their everyday contemporary counterparts for greater readability. Reverence for God is preserved in the capitalization of all pronouns referring to the Father, Son, or Holy Spirit. Readers who are more comfortable with another translation can readily find the parallel passage by means of the chapter and verse reference at the end of each passage being exposited. The paragraphs of exposition combine fresh insights to the Scripture, application, rich illustrative material, and innovative ways of utilizing the vibrant truth for his or her own life and for the challenge of communicating it with vigor and vitality.

For What it's Worth---on this February 9-- Stop thinking and start balling. Incredibly, there are two teams in Kansas who are in real need of that advice.
Shocks teetering---
Wichita State is in uncharted territory. None of these players were around the last time the Shockers lost three straight games. None of these players has been faced with failure or the uncertainty of how to overcome it. Gregg Marshall has gone 'old school' on his club in practice the last two days, picking up the physicality and intensity of their workouts. We'll see if that pays dividends tomorrow night against Missouri State.
Back to basics---
After their loss at Southern Illinois I asked Ehimen Orupke what needed to happen to the Shockers back on track. The senior center simply said; "understand who we are and how we got here". It was a wonderfully matter of fact reply and its right on target. What are the Shockers best known for--toughness on defense and rebounding. Over the last three games the Shockers were actually out-rebounded for the first time this season against Indiana State and lost. They out-rebounded Northern Iowa by only one and Southern Illinois, which has one player over 6'5" by six. That's only +6 in rebounding differential over the last three games, when for the season their average is +8.4 a game. Understand who you are.
Home sweet home---
It didn't help against Indiana State (which might be the best team in the Valley at this moment), but it should tonight against MSU. If this is a team playing with a fragile psyche they will need the support that Koch Arena is famous for. Also tomorrow, former Shocker greats Xavier McDaniel and Antione Carr are in town—I would be surprised if Marshall doesn't have them address his team. It's a big game for Wichita State. Not because they're playing Missouri State, but because they're playing simply to get back on track.
'Hawks still in flight---
KU wishes it were home on Saturday, instead they go to Oklahoma for a dangerous match up with a capable Sooners team. Bill Self has had issues for a while now; it's just that they haven't really affected his team until the last two games. Yes, the deficiencies at TCU were stark—but they were the same issues they've battled for a month--merely magnified. I'm pretty sure they head into Norman not looking for the 28 shots they got between Elijah Johnson and Nadir Tharpe in Ft. Worth. Ben McLemore is the primary scorer on this team; as such he needs more shots---much like Cleanthony Early at Wichita State. Understand who you are.
They get it---
K-State understands who they are. The 'Cats have held three teams to an average of 55 points during a three game run that has them tied with Kansas atop the Big 12. Now they have back to back opportunities to atone for their only back to back losses in conference play. Two weeks ago Iowa State got them in Ames right after the Cat's had lost at home to KU. Tomorrow the Cyclones come to Manhattan, before KSU travels to Lawrence on Big Monday. You hate playing Iowa State because they shoot many threes that, if they're on, they can be a real problem. Iowa State has actually won in two of their last three trips into Bramlage Coliseum, but K-State has won 12 of 13 games at home by an average margin of 18 points. Something will have to give.

"These cards far exceeded my expectations!! The color is bright, vibrant and just a lot of fun!! Very high quality! I will certainly be ordering again in the future!!"
"Purchased this product to write thank you notes for gifts from my baby shower. Love them! Quality of card is great and easy to write on. Ink doesn't smear."
"Purchased these thank-you cards for my son's baptism. They turned out beautifully. I was a little worried about the paper quality as I did not have an option to choose from a variety of paper types as I did for the invitations (matte, glossy, pearl shimmer, etc). But the matte finish was appropriate and the paper thickness - perfect. The colours also turned out beautifully. Inside text was accurate and font size small enough for me to add my own personal message. As usual, Tiny Prints under-promised and over-delivered; I received the cards a day or two earlier than expected."
"These cards are so cute! The paper is very heavy, the pattern on the back adds a little something extra; and my son loved the super heros on the bottom! Will be using these as the effect ThankmYou card!"
"I can not tell you how cute this card is! As soon as we received them from Tiny Prints we wrote thank you notes to the grandparents and cousins for my son's easters gifts. My family loved the cards as well! They too thought they were the cutest things ever!!"

My sons both seemed to feel comfortable in it and I was able to use it with my second boy from birth to a bit over 18 months with no issues.
