In some provinces, the Taliban appear to be trying to make substantial gains before winter sets in. In others, they are probing and testing the strength and reaction time of Afghan forces.
Russians might have gotten control of all of Ukraine by proxy had it simply supported new general elections.
The pace of both Kurdish and government forces in launching counter-attacks is glacial. The extent of the ISIL threat from south of Baghdad has not been described in detail, but it seems less serious than the threat from ISIL forces west of Baghdad.
On 23 October Libyan army troops returned to Benghazi, the first time in two months. The city has been under the control of Islamist militias.
Iraqi Kurdish leaders have agreed to send fighters to help defend Kobani, now that Turkey said it would allow them to cross Turkish territory.
One analysis judged that "lone wolf" domestic attacks such as this attest to the weakness of home-grown Islamic terrorists in Canada, or in the US. That judgment seems premature for several reasons.
The siege of Kobani is forcing actors to cooperate who would otherwise be enemies. It also is forcing the enemies of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) to ignore established state boundaries in the interest of blocking ISIL.
ISIL's emergence has captured the imagination, fervor and energy of a younger generation of jihadists. ISIL also is more appealing than the newly declared al-Qaida in South Asia.
The Turkish government is cleaning up old security problems under the umbrella of US and Coalition airstrikes. No party seems to consider the ISIL threat more serious than longstanding security problems.
The Syrian Kurds are still hoping for a miracle, courtesy of US forces. That simply will not take place. For one thing, Turkey will not allow the US to save Kobani, even if the US wanted to. Secondly, it is too late.
On Thursday, Hong Kong called off talks with protesting students. Authorities said that the students' call for an expansion of an uncooperative movement undermined the basis for talks and made it impossible to have a constructive dialogue.
In a briefing in the Pentagon, the press spokesman said air strikes alone were "not going to save the town of Kobani." The US administration said that stopping the takeover of Kobani is not a priority.
All the major Middle Eastern states and actors linked to the crisis with ISIL appear to be hedging their short term commitments but focusing almost exclusively on the end game.
Kobani's loss would undermine the morale and confidence of the other ground contingents. It is no longer a tactical or even an operational contest. ISIL's determination to seize the town demonstrates its appreciation of the stakes.
Syrian Kurdish refugees protested and clashed with Turkish authorities because Turkey is not doing anything to stop ISIL at Kobani.
One senior official said Turkey is unlikely to permit armed aircraft to use the bases for attacks.
Turkey has the trained manpower and resources to defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). It is not clear it has the will.
Stability, both in the internal and in the external environment, is one of China's highest national policy priorities. It guides nearly every Chinese policy initiative, from managing Uighur militants to managing South China Sea claims.
Twenty-five years have passed since the Tianmen Square massacre in June 1989. That period is time enough for a new generation of activists to reach maturity believing they can achieve what their forbears could not using the same tactics.
The most ominous feature of the Ajristan attack is that the Taliban leaders adopted the practice of beheading. That is an export from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).

BACS Evidence Management System – The Real ROI
On a regular basis, one can find law enforcement agencies that are under scrutiny as a result of allegations of improperly handled evidence and property. The property and evidence function is a critical task. Often it is not recognized just how important this function is until the evidence in a criminal case is lost, pilfered or contaminated, and the department is facing outside scrutiny from the public, media and members of the court.
Evidence to be presented in court must be handled in a scrupulously careful manner with detailed chain of custody documentation to avoid defense challenges. The chain of custody requires that from the moment the evidence is collected, every transfer of evidence from person to person be documented and that it be provable that nobody else could have accessed that evidence.

I made a mistake. In the 1920 Census she's single living with her parents. In the 1921 City Directory she is listed as a bookkeeper and still living with her parents and is single. Then in the City Directory for 1922, she's listed as wife of Omer St. Pierre and still living with her parents at 623 Hall St. where they lived until they both died.
So when I had written she got married to Omer about 1909/10, I had a note and had some dates on it making her about 18/19 when she got married if she got married about 1909/10 but looks like she didn't unless she took back her maiden name and was living with her parents but I doubt it.
Sorry for the confusion,

Wicker baskets for gift hampers?
Does anyone know where I can get decent, reasonably priced wicker baskets to make hampers for Mother's Day?
Preferably ones without the handle, because my mum doesn't live near me so I am going to post everything to my sister so she can assemble it for me although one with a handle would be fine for MIL as she lives local and I wouldn't have to post it
I've heard Wilkinsons do some nice ones, but our Wilkos is only small and I can't say I've ever seen any in there.
Any advice greatly appreciated!

ebay, although watch the prices as they can be cheaper elsewhere.
I got a good one at Xmas for the teacher's present from Home Bargains for £2. Pound shops often have cheap alternatives so worth a look - wicker (real wicker) is expensive. TX Maxx is also worth a look although would be at the more expensive end of things.
Charity shops might be able to help for pennies if you get really stuck. Certainly worth asking!

If you do a google search for local florist supplies, you should find somewhere with a good range or you can order them from the internet but you will pay a delivery charge.

home bargains have some nice ones in at the moment. They are not too deep with handles at either side (similar to a tray). They are only £1.99.

Thanks to Sheldon for the heads up.
Chevron One: Were you surprised by Grimm's success?
Russell Hornsby: In a word yes. Very surprised. Every time you start a new show there are so many components that go into getting that show on the air. It's really just a role of the dice as to whether it's going to take and be successful. So the first thing you're hoping for is that you have a good show – that you're creating something of a certain quality and a certain standard. And then of course you're hoping that the audiences take to it.
Very often there will be shows that are critically successful but just don't catch with the audience, and vice versa, but with Grimm I think we're had the best of both worlds. We have a show that's been a critical success and an audience fan favorite.
Chevron One: Grimm is at times a show of two halves. One one side you have the cop procedural and on the other you have monsters and fantastical creatures and so forth. Hank seems to represent the cop show aspect of Grimm but lately the other side is starting to touch his life in a number of different ways. You got to play bad cop a little bit in 'Three coins in a Fuchsbau.' what was that like for you experiencing Hank expressing this other side?
RH: Obviously as an actor it's fun to play. Generally with series regulars in a procedural things are not really character driven. It's more story and plot driven. So when you get to tap into a character aspect it's always fun. But I also believe – from the writers' and developers' standpoint – that Hank is sort of slowly and methodically becoming immersed into this world of Grimm. As an actor, that's my hope. That he will be slowly brought into Nick's fantastical world. That all happens in this alter-ego of the show.

We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
This is a beautifully aromatic, with bright red notes awakening the senses. It's very elegant and classic, full of zingy acidity, cranberry and cherry flavors, pinot funk and herbal notes in the mid palate and a layered finish.
"Light in texture, with a minerally edge to the blackberry and cassis flavors, lingering easily against refined tannins on the elegant finish. Drink now through 2018."

Wine Spectator
"The 2008 Pinot Noir Stewart was made primarily from the Pommard clone sourced from the Dundee Hills. Slightly deeper in color than the Pappas cuvee, it gives up aromas of bing cherry, floral notes, incense, and plum. With plenty of volume on the palate, ample ripe tannin, and plenty of spicy fruit, this tasty effort will benefit from another 1-2 years of cellaring and will deliver prime drinking from 2012 to 2020."

Supreme Court ruling offers hope to imprisoned ex-Gov. Ryan
By NATASHA KORECKI Federal Courts email@example.com April 30, 2012 10:18AM
George Ryan
Article Extras
Updated: July 20, 2012 9:28AM
Imprisoned former Gov. George Ryan could get another chance to challenge his fraud conviction, according to a Monday U.S. Supreme Court ruling that lawyers hope will shave time off of his 6 ½ year sentence.
The court, citing a recent case, sent Ryan's case back to the U.S. Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals to consider whether the instructions on the law given to jurors in Ryan's 2006 trial were flawed in light of another high court ruling dealing with honest services fraud. It is a rare legal victory for the former governor, who repeatedly sought to be freed from prison as his wife, Lura Lynn, was dying. She passed away last year.
Ryan's appellate attorney Albert Alschuler said that the Supreme Court's ruling means it goes back to the appellate court to reconsider the question of whether Ryan waived his objections to the jury instructions.
"Ultimately, it means we have a whole lot of issues to consider. But when all of those issues are considered, we're hopeful the court would give Gov. Ryan a new trial," Alschuler said.
Former Gov. Jim Thompson said if the Seventh Circuit rules Ryan's way, the defense will ask that the government drop the counts they are challenging — the ones having to do with honest services.
But the Seventh Circuit would first have to rule that the jury instructions on mail fraud and racketeering counts in Ryan's trial were defective.
"If those counts were simply dropped by the government then we would ask Judge [Rebecca] Pallmeyer to resentence him," Thompson said. He said lawyers would ask for time served.
"I can't imagine that the government would agree to retry him," Thompson said. "He should be resentenced to a term that would allow him to be freed time served. By the time this is all done, it's going to be five years."
Ryan, 78, is scheduled to be released from his Terre Haute, Ind., prison on July 4, 2013, according to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.
He so far has served 4½ years of his 6½-year sentence.
"This is George Ryan's first victory since this whole thing began," Thompson said. "I talked to him this morning, he is very grateful to the U.S. Supreme Court for giving his case a chance to be heard on the merits."
Thompson said Ryan has surprisingly kept up his spirits.
"He's doing all right. He's a tough guy. Even though he's had all these crises in his life, he's hanging in there. When I talked to him this morning, he was very excited and very grateful.

Deal: Custom-made bowties & neckties at Shrine Haberdashers
Today, Gilt City has a deal for Shrine Haberdashers for custom-made bowties and neckties for $48 and $65 respectively.
The deal page doesn't give much detail on the bowties and neckties themselves, so I e-mailed Shrine and received some more information.
There are 36 different colors and patterns to choose from, all silk, and you can choose from various widths, too. Their bowties have a unique feature where the neck-adjustment is secured with a mother-of-pearl button rather than a piece of metal.
Their neckwear is handmade in the United States by a company out west, which individually cuts, sews and presses each tie. This same company is a supplier to several hundred men's stores nationwide and also makes ties for well-known national retailers like Saks, Barney's and Nieman Marcus.
Overall, this seems like a pretty good deal. Shrine has been offering this custom-made service for quite some time — typically for wedding parties — at the price of $75 for a bowtie and $100 for a necktie, so the Gilt City deal knocks off about 35% of the price.
While it'd certainly be easiest for those of you in Chicago to redeem this offer in-store at their shop, the folks at Shrine assured me that they would work with any customer who bought this offer via e-mail, phone and even Skype if you're from outside the Windy City. And, for what it's worth, the times I've stopped in to check their stuff out, they've been friendly and helpful.
Wow! My evolving style has led me to the exact same wardrobe. I posted about it on SF on a thread called "Sid Masburn Look", but it actually evolved straight into what you're doing when I got a perfect fitting vintage blazer. What are your thoughts on bow ties with this look? I think is harder to make work, but the right one works (I use a BB Social Primer bow tie, others look off)? Also, APC denim with this look? I'm only wearing BB shirts too, but I'm doing the Ainsley collar. Excellent post.
Most Bow Ties Tied by a Group
Naperville's The Tie Bar is trying to get a world record in the Guinness Book on the most bow ties tied simultaneously in one place. They're giving away bow ties to the first 500 people there, and if you RSVP on Facebook, you are entered into a contest for a free bow tie every month for a year. As an added incentive, they will donate $15 to Goodwill of Chicago for every person who attends.
It's Sunday, August 28th at 2 PM in Wrigley Square in the Northwest side of Chicago's Millennium Park.
I will not be attending, for I will be on a vacation in Minnesota.
Chicago menswear meetup anyone?
Teaching myself to tie a bowtie for the first time today. Damn, this is aggravating. The last step (putting the long end through the loop) is killing me each time. I feel as though I have zero room to work with.
It's Amazing: A passion for anything starts a young age
Definitely click through and read this story from itsamazing about who might just be the freshest kid in the Windy City:
The first words out of this 7 year old's mouth was..
"I want a bow tie.."
Wait.. hold up..a 7 year old boy wants a bow tie. I proceeded to talk to his dad and he responded..
"We were downstairs in the men's department and he was really upset. All the bow ties were too big for him and he wanted one.. but then we came up here everything you have for boys was pre tied..he really wants to learn how to tie one.. he was looking forward to it.."
My response? Well I was for one, at a loss for words. Two, I couldn't believe that this 7 year old actually wanted a bow tie, let alone wanting to know how to tie one. What 7 year old do you know enjoys wearing a suit and tie AND wants a bow tie?
Steezus Christ, son!

Some say our destiny is tied to the land, as much a part of us as we are of it. Others say fate is woven together like a cloth, so that one's destiny intertwines with many others. It's the one thing we search for, or fight to change. Some never find it. But there are some who are led.

I can't even put into words how happy this movie makes me.
- No love interest
- Mother/Daughter adventure
- Loving happy marriage between parents
- Show being a princess is a mother fucking JOB

Thank you Disney. It took 70 years and a push from Pixar, but you FINALLY gave us a mother/daughter adventure.
Bless you for not killing her/making her evil/pushing her off to the side.

There was a scene boarded where, at the end of the movie, Merida teaches Elinor archery. Eli gets a bulls-eye on the first try! Also, remember Emma Thompson's interview where she said Elinor was 'also a great archer'? (Post about it here) I think that perhaps this warrants some attention from Pixar…

As the regular season comes to a close, Anaheim Ducks fans are getting anxious.
An all too familiar sense of déjà vu is setting in as flashbacks from last year's disappointing season ending start to come forth. A team we know and love as an elite team in the league is putting together an effort that is par, at best.
Wednesday night's victory over the San Jose Sharks was a fantastic game for Anaheim, but remains an anomaly in an otherwise lackluster couple of weeks.
Don't panic, Ducks fans.
While things are starting to look eerily similar to last year's disappointing conclusion, there are reasons to believe this year's Ducks won't fall into the same pratfalls as last years team.
Corey Perry. Last year, Perry ended the regular season with a mediocre fifteen goals in forty-eight games. This year, Perry has come up huge for us, especially here in the latter part of the season. His 43 goals are second only to Alex Ovechkin and has four goals in the last five games have come at times in the game where he needed to step up and score big.
This year's Perry has found his scoring touch again and looks to be carrying that momentum into the playoffs.
Depth scoring has also been phenomenal. Fans saw that Wednesday night with Patrick Maroon getting two goals and securing the Ducks' victory. With four solid centers and a rotation of dangerous forwards, opponents will have plenty to contend with whoever ends up on the ice for the Ducks.
Our opponents will be either the Minnesota Wild or the Dallas Stars (maybe Phoenix as well). It'll be easy for fans to draw comparisons between these teams and last year's Red Wings, especially Minnesota who, like the Red Wings last year, are heating up in the later part of the year and into the playoffs.
This might warrant a bit of panic. Both are fast teams with a lot of skill in their top two lines. The Ducks tend to have trouble with that combination.
That is a big part of why the Red Wings were so successful against us last year. Speed and Skill. Anaheim had some shutdown defenders who could neutralize any threat the Red Wings forwards had, if we could catch their forwards. That is something that's changed this year when compared to last year. A more mobile defense for the Ducks.
With Lindholm having a breakout season and the Fowler and Lovejoy pairing paying huge dividends this season, the Ducks' back-end is a bit more prepared for speedy teams then last year's was.
Looking back at the series last year, the Ducks were in it to the bitter end. The clubs exchanged victories and, eventually, the Red Wings came out on top. Despite the meandering ending the Ducks had at the end of the season, they picked up the pace once the playoffs started, and even came through with the victory in the first game. Playoff hockey can do that. It can make a more lackluster team really pick up their game and play to the best of their ability.
So, no matter how this season ends for the Ducks, once the playoffs begin, they'll be playing at their best going into the playoffs. When the Ducks play at their best, they're all but unstoppable.
Lastly, and possibly most importantly, is one simple truth: The Stanley Cup Playoffs is chaos.
Last year the number one team in the league won it all. The year before that, the eighth seeded L.A. Kings won. Us bloggers, analysts, fans can all speculate and try to predict what might happen. We'd probably be right the majority of the time, too, but the fact remains that once the playoffs start, any possibility has a chance.
Could the Ducks win it all this year? Absolutely.
Could the Ducks be swept out of the playoffs in the first round? Absolutely.
The odds are in the Ducks' favor, but there's no telling just what will happen once the playoffs start.
So, don't panic. Sit back and enjoy watching one of the most exciting, energetic, and entertaining teams this city has seen in years. I guarantee, no matter what happens, it'll be one heck of a playoffs for the Anaheim Ducks.

What's with all the nonsensical crossovers recently? Link in Mario Kart... Samus in Monster Hunter... (are they pulling them out of a hat?) Personally I kind of feel such things should be reserved for Smash Bros. to keep its USP special and distinct.

Looks nice.
Fighting for the status quooooo
It's not necessarily about revealing secret footage or story. For something like this for example I would just personally try and avoid seeing exhaustive footage of every stage, every character, every move, every item, etc. But that's just me, if people these days want to see so much excessive footage of a game that by the time it comes out they're more bored by it than excited, that's fine (though I would question whether they actually want to, or whether they just consume whatever's put in front them without thought). It's hard to avoid in the age of information overload, but for me, a few short trailers is where I stop to ensure maximum excitement when the game is finally released.
For all those people with a spare 8 hours. Do you remember when Nintendo were secretive? Can't get them to stop talking these days. I'll probably wait to see all the game footage by actually playing the game itself when it comes out without having already seen everything (it's a crazy thing we used to do in the 90s).
I like how there's someone working at Nintendo UK for whom this is like their one idea for everything...
To the best of my knowledge the games that they've advertised with boybands have all sold at worse; less than, at best; around the same as series standards so it doesn't really seem all that worth it. I always kind of think it potentially alienates more customers than it may attract (ie. boys tend to consider boybands to be "girly" and therefore the game becomes "girly" in their eyes, for right or wrong) and that they should just let the games speak for themselves.
Just get Monster Hunter 3: Ultimate and play it forever.
Game droughts never really bother me. If anything I'm grateful for them (as I would imagine anyone with a backlog is). I mean, there's like 40 years of video game history to explore, there's always something to play. Plus nowadays you have lots of great indie stuff on the eShop (though admittedly I'm including the 3DS's here), or just replaying an old favorite. Everything moves so fast, I savour the slowness.
Games website likes games console.
So that's why there hadn't been an F-Zero or Starfox game in ages, they're being rebranded as Coke-Zero and Starbux...
Seriously though, while I am a purist and I think this does look out of place and a bit tacky, I'm not really bothered. Nintendo is a business and this sort of thing is perfectly normal.
However I would say to all the people who are referencing games like Wave Race, 1080 Snowboarding, sports games, etc. that this isn't quite the same as those games are set in the real world, so it makes sense to use advertising/product placement because that fits in with the realism. Mario is not set in the real world and while it would be silly to take the Mario universe/canon too seriously, we do take it somewhat seriously, or at least, it's somewhat precious to us, which is why for some, this jars. But as I say, I personally don't particularly mind.
"It's software that sells systems not control methods". Exactly. Nintendo used to understand that the controller was merely the conduit to play the game. The NES and SNES were never sold on the back of the controller. The controller was barely ever mentioned. Nowadays they're trying to make the controller the main-event itself. Mario Kart 8 has just had a very successful launch and will probably end up as the biggest-selling Wii U game and yet it makes no meaningful use of the Gamepad. No one is buying Mario Kart because of the Gamepad. They're buying it because... it's Mario Kart! It should tell Nintendo everything they need to know (ie. that people love Nintendo's software, they don't really care about the hardware).
"The hardware is just a box you buy only because you want to play Mario games." Hiroshi Yamauchi
As for the article in general, I'm not so confident there was anything in terms of usage of the Gamepad at E3 that's suddenly going to make the general public interested in it. There have already been plenty of Wii U Gamepad showcases in Nintendo Land, Game & Wario, Wii Party U, etc. and they haven't worked.
Also, @Mahe I understood your original NES point even if others took it far too seriously/deliberately misunderstood/twisted it and then declared themselves the winner of the argument...
Somewhere F.L.U.D.D. is spinning in his grave with all this ink chaos!
It's funny, I've noticed NL keep sneaking in words like "innovative" and "revolutionary" when writing about the amiibos. I'm guessing it's phase one of the operation, with phase two being the eventual re-writing of history that amiibos came before Skylanders and everyone totally ripped off Nintendo's innovation yet again...
I think home console Mario Karts always sell better than the handheld equivalent, so I guess it's to be expected.
I don't know, isn't the problem with Star Fox that they keep trying to do something different with it, when everyone just wants a traditional, pure Star Fox game like the first two (ie. the two successful ones)? If it controls like Nintendo Land's Metroid Blast (which I thought was quite clunky tbh) and you have to hold the Gamepad up to your face for the whole game, I'm not sure, if the main action is already on the TV screen, what exactly a cockpit view offers to offset the discomfort. I would hate to see Wii U Gamepad features crowbarred in to turn a game that controls beautifully into something needlessly convoluted just for the sake of it.
Doesn't this sort of thing kind of devalue their own product/content?
Unless of course they're now done with 2D Mario...
Fantastic news for Nintendo players like me who haven't played the original. I was hoping this would happen!
That was my reaction as well. I don't think the younger Miyamoto would ever have designed games in such a way and it's worrying if he has a "brief" to shoehorn in Wii U Gamepad features. To be honest my synopsis of the interview was "the controls are a convoluted mess", like a bad Star Fox motion mini-game from Nintendo Land, but I'll say no more as I don't want to be a buzzkill with the exciting news.
Now make a new control scheme for Kid Icarus: Uprising! PLEASE!
Looks so out of place... But if it's just a commercial tie-in DLC then fair enough I suppose...
A definite no to the idea from me. As I said in the previous article, Mario Kart should be kept in the Mario universe. Smash Bros. crossover works; Link, Samus, etc. in combat, makes sense. Link, Samus, etc. in wacky go-kart racing, no thanks. Also, as @absuplendous said, it would devalue the appeal of Smash Bros. itself. Smash Bros. should be the only mass Nintendo crossover. That's a huge part of what makes it so special. If all Nintendo franchises became messy, nonsensical crossovers it would be horrible.
However, yesterday @ThreadShadow mentioned that it could work in the style of Nintendo Land as its style is very separate and removed from the actual franchises themselves and their (at the risk of sounding pretentious) canon. This I suppose would be acceptable.
Meanwhile Mario Lopez waits patiently by the phone.
I quite like them. They first appear to be the standard bland aspirational family cheesiness of last gen, but then throw in a nice bit of Nintendo quirkiness and edge. Still, never going to top the MK 7 commercial in my eyes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTa2Jn48G90
Wouldn't like to see a Smash Bros-esque Mario Kart at all to be honest. Should keep it in the Mario universe which it's much more suited to. Smash Bros crossover works; Link, Samus, etc. in combat, makes sense. Link, Samus, etc. in wacky go-kart racing, no thanks.
Love this. Nintendo's ads have on the whole been far better than the blandness of last gen. I still think the MK7 one is my favorite.
I'm soon going on vacation to the sun, so it will be a good opportunity to get the AR cards to work with the correct amount of light needed.
I get the feeling we'll be hearing about the Wii U Gamepad's "potential" and "that one killer-app that will change everything" until its last day.
"Krusty is coming, Krusty is coming, Krusty is coming..."
@Goginho @WaveBoy
Exactly what I was going to say. While the Wii U one technically looks amazing, it's a bit too realistic for the Mario universe. I prefer the look of the Wii one with its much brighter colors and simpler shapes, much more in keeping with the Mario style. The Wii U Moo Moo Meadows looks kind of drab and depressing in comparison... I think Mario 3D World is more the way to go in having amazing graphics while keeping the cartoony Mario style.
I'm really not sure that the dual-screens was the "one" feature that made DS such a smash-hit. If it were anything to do with the innovation aspect it would have been the touch-screen surely, not really the two screens (I would say most of the touch-heavy games I played could have easily been achieved with one touch-screen). Plus also the fact that some of the biggest-selling games on the console that pushed the DS into the stratosphere (New Super Mario Bros, Mario Kart DS, Pokémon D/P/B/W, etc.) made no meaningful use of the feature.
People tend to forget that the DS's first year on the market (when it was being sold almost entirely on the back of being "the dual screen console!") wasn't massively successful. It did well, but it was pretty much level with the PSP in their first year. Having two screens was never its biggest selling point. I suppose kind of similar to the 3DS's first year when it was being sold explicitly on the 3D and it nearly killed it. Nintendo then rescued the console by removing all focus from the 3D and onto (shock!) the games themselves!
I don't know, I haven't seen any 2DS marketing that's specifically targeted towards under-7s, particularly when the console's minimum recommended age (as with most Nintendo consoles) is... 7.
I think the 2DS was made for anyone regardless of age to get the console for significantly cheaper by removing a feature that they don't want or need.
Oh my God, do my eyes deceive me or are they finally making F-Zero figures? I'd long since given up hope. Even if it's just Falcon at least that's something.
Or you could forge your own fan from a Great Jaggi neck frill.
Will Rosalina get a 'black hole in one'? Too soon...
But the Wii U is struggling everywhere though, I'm not sure why that's exclusive to the UK. The biggest selling console of all-time in the UK is the Nintendo DS and this list of the top 10 biggest selling (single SKU) games of all time in the UK (from a couple of years ago) doesn't exactly show a country that's anti-Nintendo: http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/feature-uk-s-top-ten-single-skus-of-all-time/095012
Yeah, there is a bit of hypocrisy when it comes to DLC. I remember a few years ago, when everyone was doing DLC and Nintendo had yet to, Nintendo fans of course saw this as a prime opportunity to take the moral high ground and were all like "DLC is terrible. Totally indicative of modern gaming and greedy companies. Nintendo would never do DLC because they're better than that." Then Nintendo started doing DLC... So they desperately had to scramble around for a new moral high ground (because they can't just, ya know, let it go...) and that became "Nintendo does DLC right" and that "Nintendo would never release something as DLC that they could've put in the actual game" (though without working at Nintendo I'm not sure how they could possibly know that).
I've never really found "create your own track/level/stage, etc." stuff as exciting as I think it's going to be. I feel like Nintendo giving the opportunity to design your own levels in a Mario platformer, or design your own tracks in Mario Kart would kind of devalue their own content.
What I find strange about the "more of the same" accusation is that "more of the same" is pretty much Nintendo's bread and butter. Not that I use that as a criticism at all, but that's what they do; Mario, Zelda, Mario Kart, Donkey Kong, Animal Crossing, Metroid, Kirby, Pokemon, etc. and have been for decades, so I don't know where this moral high-ground has suddenly appeared for Nintendo fans regarding "more of the same". This thread will be full of people accusing other companies of producing "more of the same", then their next comments on the site will probably be like "can't wait for Mario Kart 8/Smash Bros!"
Agreed. But of course, at the time you did need a powerful system to play Zelda: Majora's Mask, as the N64 was (to quote Nintendo's slogan): "the fastest, most powerful games console on earth". That game couldn't have been made on less powerful, older systems like the NES and SNES. It needed the power of the N64 (the Xbox One/PS4 of its day). It's all relative to the era.
Nice! This is like stuff they used to do in the old days. I remember a comic strip in an old Nintendo mag with Mario and Luigi to illustrate the Game Boy Link Cable.
So glad that this amazing series came to Nintendo consoles. It's a franchise that takes a bit of getting used to and a fair amount of learning, but it's so awesome once you get into it.
Totally agree. I really think this is an often overlooked problem for the Wii U. I know many people think options are a good thing, but not always. The Wii U controller situation is too convoluted and messy. I miss the more simplified, streamlined days of the NES, SNES, N64 and GC. You knew where you were.
For a casual/newcomer I would think the Wii U controller situation is completely impenetrable: "So I use the Wii U controller, but I can also use the Pro controller for a lot of games, but that changes certain aspects of the game as it doesn't have a touch-screen? I can play entirely on the Wii U Gamepad screen, but that also changes certain aspects of the game as it negates the two-screen set-up? For some games I can also use Wii Remotes which have a completely different layout? For multiplayer, only one person can use a Gamepad and others have to use Pro controllers and Wii Remotes, despite the different layouts and functionality? Can I use the Classic Controller Pro or just the Pro controller? Do standard Wii Remotes work or just Wii Remote Plus? What about a standard Wii Remote with a motion plus attachment? What about Wavebirds?" [head explodes]
To be fair, the Street Fighter comment was mine. It was a general dig at the idea that pausing the game to look down at information on a second screen on the controller instead of pausing the game to look at information on the screen that you're already looking at represents mind-blowing innovation (and somehow; immersion....), instead of actually making barely any difference at all.
@XCWarrior @beautifulstrong
I found that looking away from the action to look at the Gamepad screen in Monster Hunter is absolute suicide. A surefire way to becoming a Barroth's breakfast or getting gobbled by a Gobul. And that having the HUD information on the TV screen, right there in my peripheral vision, that I can see at a second's glance at all times is most convenient.
Ha! The funniest thing is that while they may not be pressing pause, they're still pausing the game to look down at the controller to use this stuff, so it makes barely any difference. Plus they're probably having to take their right hand off the buttons, onto the touch-screen, then back onto the buttons again. I also would have thought having to look down at your controller constantly is the most immersion-breaking thing you could do in a game, for those who like to bring that constantly misused word into it.
Do you remember when we used to play Street Fighter and how we really hated how convenient it was to see your health bar right there on screen while you played. It was right there in your peripheral vision. It was so quick and intuitive to see it at a glance. It was awful. Oh how we yearned to have this information put onto a second screen to make it needlessly convoluted.
I like how, whenever a Wii U game doesn't do amazingly in Japan, there's always of group of commenters saying that said franchise/genre "isn't as big in Japan anyway", but based on no actual evidence. Today it's seemingly that platformers and/or Donkey Kong games aren't popular over there... despite the fact that nearly all 2D Mario platformers and the original SNES Donkey Kong Countries are among the biggest-selling games of all-time in Japan.

Lots of new Man of Steel toys were previewed yesterday in France of Mattel's line-up of action figures for Warner Bros. upcoming Man of Steel film. These images also give us our first real look at General Zod's suit in the film. Also one of the "Quickshot" figures seems to be some sort of Kryptonian robot. I don't think we have heard about that one yet. There is presumably a shot in the movie of Superman picking up a motorcycle and ripping it in half, which Mattel has made a toy of as well.
Enjoy all of the photos below!

Recipe # 33: Humble Pie
Would you like some pie?
A pie in the face is both poignant and funny but a Russian tragedy involving the torment of thwarted food service is more poignant and much funnier.
This recipe is a fully vegetarian version of one containing chicken and although I'm not in a position to compare the two, I've trotted this out to many meat loving family members and am always asked for the how to.
So break out your tiny pie knife.
1. Make some tomato sauce by sweating an onion in olive oil over a gentle heat until soft but not browned, add a couple of cloves of chopped garlic and a sliced chilli or two.
2. Add an 800 g tin of tomatoes, a tsp of sugar and a good splash of Worcestershire sauce and season. Cook the sauce over a gentle heat for at least 30 mins to make a rich sauce. Add 2 tbsp chopped tarragon at the end and cook a couple of minutes longer.
3. While the sauce is cooking, heat 30g butter with 2 tbsp olive oil and add about 6 diced courgettes. Cook until slightly soft, then add 2 cloves garlic, pinch ground cloves, pinch ground cumin, pinch ground cinnamon and cook 5 mins. Add the sauce, and some chopped parsley if you like.
4. Make a topping by putting 500g cooked corn kernels in a food processor with 55 g butter and 1 tbsp flour (or polenta) Blend to a course paste and season.
5. Grease a baking dish and put half the corn on the bottom. Add the courgettes. Scatter over 100g feta, then top with the remaining corn.
6. Bake at 180 C for 45 mins.

Recipe # 6: corn bread, hey ya
southern style grittage
1. Preheat oven to 200 C. Put 1 cup of polenta in a large bowl and sift
in 3/4 cup flour, 1 Tbsp baking powder and 1 tsp salt.
2. Beat 2 eggs and stir into dry ingredients, then fold in 1 cup milk and 1/4 cup
vegetable oil.
3. Stir in a cup of corn (I personally use frozen corn quite often - frozen veges are very underrated) and 1 cup grated cheese (FYI I used a hard mild goats cheese but anything will do). Add some chopped pickled jalapenos (optional but exceptional)
4. Pour into a very well greased loaf tin and bake 30 mins or until a skewer comes out clear.

DmC: Devil May Cry (PS3/X360 - January 15th, 2013)
With the avalanche of quality games burying us at the end of this year, it's important not to forget that there will be no breathing room for your quickly dissipating money once the new year rolls around.
Case in point: January's release of DmC, the first of many from 2013's list of Must-Own Games. I can hardly pay attention to 2012's Must-Own's with events like Tokyo Game Show informing me on how exactly I'll go broke in the future. Seriously, Borderlands 2 is watching me over my shoulder — a disdainful, cel-shaded sneer on its face — as I write this. I gotta get back to her (you know how she gets).
I'll leave you with this brand new DmC trailer from TGS. Seeing how games are marketed in other countries will do you good. Trust me, it'll make you worldly (or something).

Compassion abounds for Plaistow boy in abuse case
PLAISTOW - Christmas gifts for 3-year-old James Nicholson are piling up inside the Plaistow Police Department as the community rallies around the boy at the center of an abuse case who a few weeks ago was left hospitalized with burns and a life-threatening head injury.
"There's been a very large outpouring of support for the little boy," Plaistow Detective Patrick Schiavone said as people continued to drop off gifts for the child on Wednesday afternoon.
As reported on UnionLeader.com Tuesday night, James is now out of the hospital and continuing to recover while living with his maternal grandmother in Kingston. It's a home where he spent a lot of his time when he wasn't with his mother, Jessica Linscott, 23, and her boyfriend, Roland Dow, 27, at their Plaistow residence.
Linscott and Dow remain behind bars at the Rockingham County jail after they were arrested last week at Universal Studios in Orlando, Fla., on charges stemming from an investigation launched Nov. 14 when James was brought to Exeter Hospital with bruises over much of his body, burns on his wrist and fingers, and a head injury that resulted in a traumatic brain injury, authorities said.
The case grabbed headlines when Linscott and Dow fled after bringing James to the hospital. Linscott told hospital workers that the injuries were self-inflicted, but they suspected they were the result of abuse and notified police.
Linscott and Dow disappeared after learning that Plaistow police planned to arrest them, and after a nationwide search that lasted nearly two weeks, the pair was cuffed moments after watching a parade at Universal Studios.
Dow faces first- and second-degree assault charges for allegedly striking James in the head, causing a brain injury that left him temporarily blind, and burning him.
He and Linscott also face several counts of endangering the welfare of a child for allegedly failing to seek medical care when James suffered seizures and other health problems on several occasions.
With Christmas just around the corner, people like Dave Drislane have been stopping by the police station with presents to brighten the boy's holiday.
A father of three children, Drislane, 38, of Danville, arrived Wednesday afternoon carrying a race car kit and set of miniature dinosaurs.
Drislane said it was a "miracle" that James recovered enough to leave the hospital.
"Hopefully he has a good Christmas and is in a safe home. He's with his grandparents now. Evil has been locked up, hopefully for a long time," he said.
At a press briefing on Wednesday afternoon, Schiavone provided an update on the boy's condition.
"On behalf of James' family, they are extremely grateful for the outpouring of support and toys that James has received during his recovery," he said.
Schiavone asked the media to respect the family's privacy "so that James can receive the care and attention he needs to continue in his recuperation. Part of his recuperation will be to maintain a normal daily routine with his caretakers."
Toy donations may continue to be dropped off at the police department. A fund is also being established to accept monetary donations.

Have you ever wondered why U2 frontman Bono always wears glasses? Well, we now know that it's not just a style choice – it's actually for medical reasons.
While chatting with BBCOne's Graham Norton, Bono revealed that he's suffered from glaucoma for the past 20 years.
Their new album Songs of Innocence is now available in physical form and the members of U2 regret ever putting the record on every single iTunes account.
In a new interview guitarist The Edge joked, "It's gonna be very hard to get Larry [Mullen Jr.] to say anything at all. It's gonna be hard for Bono to stop talking. I'm gonna answer anything, but I will not be divulging what strings I use or my favorite echo pedals."
Fans of the iconic Irish rock band U2 will have to wait a bit longer for the release of the band's tour and new album.
U2, headlined by Bono, placed a tentative release date for their album during the summer of 2014, and their tour was scheduled to start this September.
Bringing their talents to the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, U2 took to the stage at the 86th Academy Awards on Sunday (March 2).
Fronted by Bono, the iconic band performed the hit single "Ordinary Love" from the "Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom" soundtrack to honor the late political leader Nelson Mandela.
Johannesburg, South Africa was buzzing this morning as big names came together in celebration of Nelson Mandela's remarkable 95 years on earth.
It's a brilliant initiative to raise awareness of the deplorable sanitation and water situation in communities around the world, and Matt Damon's Toilet Strike just scored three new members.
Enjoying some downtime on the other side of the world, Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves basked in the Ibiza sun on Friday (August 10).
The Brazilian model/actress wore a variety of swimwear as she showed off her growing baby bump while going for a swim with a few pals.
Given her massive record sales and multiple sold-out tours, it's no wonder Taylor Swift nabbed the #1 spot on Billboard's "Music's Top 40 Money Makers" list.
The "Should've Said No" songstress reportedly raked in a hefty salary of $35.7 million for the 2011 year with combined songwriting royalties, an $88.5 million-grossing Speak Now world tour, and her quadruple platinum album.

My Personal Note:
when I baked this in My Oven I baked this at 350 for 1 hr 50 min. and it was done. I tested with a sharp knife, as its pretty tall. My suggestion; Watch your ovens and check after 1 1/2 hrs as ovens do differ.

Original Recipe does not say this, But I have used other flavors, such as, Orange and Lemon Extract in place of Vanilla, for Lemon or Orange Pound cake.

2-Bean Salad With Fire-Roasted Jalapeños and Pickled Red Peppers

Alas (I suppose) these green beans are only cooked in the manner of snails, not with the garden creatures. No matter, the unapologetically garlicky snail butter is still darn good and makes a fine accompaniment to the tender green beans. More
Pork loves sweet, snappy counterparts—think pulled pork and cole slaw, or pork chops with sautéed apples. Maybe that's why pork and beans are such a classic Chinese combination. In this version, I use sliced marinated pork loin stir-fried very quickly with some blanched green beans, all flavored with ginger, garlic, and a simple marinade. It comes together in just about the same time that it takes to steam a batch of rice, making this a perfect weeknight meal. More
Roasted green beans are swathed in balsamic vinaigrette and stippled with hazelnuts and crumbled blue cheese. More
Green beans, mushrooms, and onions in a stove-top side dish that brings out the flavors of a classic green bean casserole. More
Sticky, hoisin-glazed chops are baked in the oven and served with a quick, spicy stir-fry of chopped, Sichuan-style green beans. More
There's tofu, and then there's dry tofu. This stir-fry with snappy green beans and rice has a hint of chili and a gingery kick for a tasty and filling meal with that takes all of five minutes to cook. More
Dumping green beans in a pot with potatoes and boiling them for 25 minutes, as Domenica Marchetti instructs in The Glorious Vegetables of Italy, sounded like a pretty crazy idea. But I tried it anyway. Once the beans and potatoes were totally tender, I drained them and smashed them up, slowly drizzling in olive oil along the way. Towards the end, I added a pan-ful of crispy pancetta. Somewhere between the first smash and the last, the mushy beans and potatoes transformed into a soft green bowl of creamy comfort food. More
Did anyone else eat a version of green beans with almonds as a kid at just about every "fancy" family meal? My parents served it constantly, always slicked with a generous helping of melted butter. This green bean salad from The French Market Cookbook evokes that dish while adding its own twists. More

Bellmont High School kicked off its annual Homecoming events Sunday with Powder Puff football and mud volleyball.
The Powder Puff game was won by the seniors, 21-14. The mud volleyball tournament followed.
By RICK CALLAHAN
Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Gov. Mitch Daniels on Friday named a Tippecanoe County judge as the first woman on the bench of the Indiana Supreme Court in 13 years.
The appointment of Loretta Rush ends Indiana's distinction as one of only three states will all-male high courts, and makes Rush Indiana's first female justice since Myra Selby stepped down in 1999.
A scarcity of substitute school bus drivers was noted at this week's meeting of the North Adams School Board.
Business Manager Larry Carty said it is difficult to get trained subs and this is not a problem that exists just within the North Adams community. He noted that North Adams absorbed three former sub drivers into regular routes this year depleting the supply of subs.
It's a difficult achievement for a student to score a perfect mark on the ISTEP mathematics test or the English/language arts test that are taken every spring across Indiana.
As North Adams Community Schools officials pointed out at Tuesday night's school board meeting, a school may go several years in between having a perfect score.
The South Adams School Corporation's acceptance of a bid by CDI Development Services in the amount of $747,400 for the purchase of the former elementary school property does not necessarily mean that the agreement is a "done deal."
This year is the fifth and final year for the Safe Schools/Healthy Students (SS/HS) grant for Adams County, which means that several programs will come to an end and the school districts will need to find other sources of funding.
Two human cases of West Nile Virus (WNV) have now been confirmed in Adams County and there may be a third case, Environmental Director Terry Smith of the Adams County Health Department said Wednesday.
The municipalities will continue spraying and the public should check their property for containers with rainwater, Smith said
The Adams Public Library recently reported that wireless usage in 2012 has more than doubled that of 2011. A more drastic increase was shown in the month of August — over 1,100 connections were made in comparison to only 346 in August of 2011.
The Adams County Regional Sewer District board will submit to Decatur municipal officials a written proposal outlining sewage treatment costs and other variables associated with a proposed $4.5 million sewer project to serve the outlying areas of Monmouth, Bobo, Pleasant Mills and Arcadia Village.
Negotiations between the city and the regional sewer group have been ongoing for the past month and were not resolved during a two-hour meeting Tuesday evening at Decatur's Riverside Center.
North Adams teachers are no longer a possible number one -- and that's a good thing.
The number one status refers to being among the lowest paid teachers in the state of Indiana and a new memorandum of understanding agreed to Tuesday night by both the North Adams Teachers Association (NATA) and the North Adams Community School Board will rectify that situation.

How to Hide the Smell of Marijuana Plants
Due to the recent boom in Marijuana users in the US and the UK, many people are starting to grow their own, as it is more cost effective and generally fun to do. However as much as we would want to grow it, even if you have legal rights to grow Marijuana, you may still want to hide it. For example, you may not wish for your neighbors to know that you are growing for privacy reasons, or you may be concerned about theft.
1Avoid attempting to cover up the smell. The marijuana plant is a pungent plant and has its own, unique smell. This smell can linger on clothing and rooms for hours, if not days. Here is a group of items that you SHOULDN'T use:
- Deodorant: Though a good smell, deodorant is not good for the long term grower, as the smell only adds to the marijuana smell, which still could be noticed after a few minutes.
- Car Fresheners: Like deodorant, car fresheners are just going to add the the smell that is produced, and may not actually get rid of the smell.
- Any "plug-in" Air Fresheners: Although they may get rid of the smell for a while, it would eventually not be noticed, by you at least. But a lot of these would be needed for a small growing set up.
2Use carbon filtering with fans when withdrawing odor from the room, so that it doesn't just deposit all the smell in a neighbor's property. These filters are useful, but do run out of ability as time goes on, so you probably want to replace it when you feel it has been used up. Consider installing venting systems: a system of pipes/vents that draw out the smell from a room:
- Window Vents: a decently powerful fan on a window can pull out the "contaminated" air from the room, while another fan on another window can push in fresh outside air.
- Chimney Vents: Using an assortment of pipes and D.I.Y., you can make your own chimney which will draw out the smell from the room. If you are more creative, you can connect it up to an already existing Chimney, making it more subtle.
- Sewer Venting: Once again, using the aid of pipes and skill, you can connect up the room to a fan which will pull out the smell and take it to the street sewer, which will most likely cover the smell of marijuana.
3Selectively breed marijuana for minimal smell. With the aid of experience and knowledge, you can clone breeds of marijuana that have different or more subtle smells, which are less pungent that others. Though this can be hard, and can only, really be achieved if you experiment with many strains, and cross-breeding. But you may stumble upon a strain with less pungency but the same in any other way.
4Use a specialized fertilizer. There is a fertilizer called NoSkunk that claims to eliminate the smell of plants while they are growing. Haven't tried it myself, but they offer a money back guarantee so might be worth a try.
We could really use your help!
living with ADHD?
- Be sure to have your paperwork in order in case someone does notice your growing operation.
- Also related to electronics, using them continually will drive up your electricity bill. Though this may not seem a problem initially as you can pay off these bills with your produce, you can be found out if you have odd usages at late hours of the night.
- When using electronics in venting, be careful when using for a long amount of time. Circuits could short out and cause fires.
- Connecting up a venting system to the sewers can be a health hazard. Fumes from the sewers are poisonous and can harm you in the long term. When connecting up a pipe, make sure you use a fan so that the sewage fumes do not suck back up, into your home.

Workaround exists to allow mobile payments to work internationally.
At just 9.3mm thick, the iPhone 4 is the world's slimmest smartphone. But with multi-tasking, HD video recording and a beautiful high definition display it's proof positive that great things really do come in small packages.
After four years of Apple releasing increasingly jaw-dropping mobiles, it's perhaps not surprising that the iPhone 4 is another landmark for smartphones. As you'd expect, it's the best iPhone yet and could be the greatest handset we've ever seen.
As with all Apple phones, iPhone 4 buyers are able to choose from thousands of free and paid for applications to download from the App Store online software market. But this time around, Apple has installed a powerful 1GHz processor, which means you can use several applications simultaneously. This combines with the new IOS4 operating system for one of the smoothest and fastest smartphone experiences around.
Adding to this great handset's appeal is the five megapixel camera, which teams a five times digital zoom with tap-to-focus functionality and an LED flash, so that even the least able photographers can take great snaps. And it's even more impressive at capturing moving images, recording 720p HD video. Your mini movies can then be played back on the super high-density Retina Display.
But that's not all. The iPhone 4 is the first in the series to come with a secondary, front-facing camera for video calling, so you'll be able to see and speak your nearest and dearest no matter how far away they are.
Other features of the iPhone include a media player and web browser to keep you entertained, e-reader functionality thanks to the pre-loaded iBook app, with thousands of classics and brand new titles available to download, 16GB of storage space, 3.5mm headphone jack, gyroscope, push email and a multi-touch user interface for an intuitive smartphone experience.
The iPhone 4's battery offers up to seven hours talk time or 40 hours of music playback and ten hours of viewing media.
The white edition of the iPhone 4 marks the first time that an Apple smartphone has ever been available in a colour variant. And by common consent, it's a move that makes a great-looking mobile even more appealing.
And that's not to mention the other design features that the handset is home to. Not least the amazing glossy aluminosilicate glass employed in its construction. This is a material only normally found in windshields of helicopters and high-speed trains and means that the handset is so robust that it puts the majority of so-called tough phones to shame.
But that's not all. The scratch-resistant coating also ensures that the iPhone 4's other standout design feature, namely its stunning super-high density, 60-by-640 backlit LCD screen stays looking as good as the day you took the handset out of its box.
Finally, the iPhone 4's looks are burnished with the stainless steel band that runs around the rim of the phone. This not only adds to the handset's hard-wearing qualities, but it doubles as anntennae for improved call reception in a perfect marriage of form and function.

ARLINGTON — Jake Smolinski didn't have the best start to his big-league career, striking out three times in his first four plate appearances.But in his first major-league start on Tuesday, Smolinski collected the first two hits of his career, including an RBI double."It feels awesome, but it's a strange feeling and trying to explain it is difficult," Smolinski said. "I might engrave the ball or write something on it like the date and pitcher's name, but I don't have a spot for it yet at home."Smolinski will make his second start on Wednesday and moves up in the order, from eighth to fifth, against Houston lefty Dallas Keuchel (8-5, 3.06 ERA)."I'm excited, but as for where I'm at in the order, it doesn't really matter to me. The game situation will tell me what I need to do when I'm in the box," he said. "To me, it's about competing. The ball is still going to cross the plate, no matter who's throwing it to you."
