Can you name? Besides the brambles? I thought this might be a good cold weather garden-related subject.
Theres Lambs Quarter, New Poke, Dock, and Curly Dock, I recently was told Chickweed is edible--what all am I missing? Anything to get me out of the Garden Catalogs--and can I just buy Tomato Seeds for another year, if I dont plant them?? I need help with my obcession, People!!!! |

Jerusalem artichoke, something called carpenter's square, (persimmon and mulberry are weed trees). |

If we had to live off weeds that were on our own property, we'd have plenty of dandelion greens. lol The site below says you can boil and eat the roots also. We could season them with wild onions or garlic. I'm not sure which one we have but there would be plenty of that too. Other common weeds in our lawn are narrow leaf and broad leaf plantain, sheep sorrel, wild dock, poke and once in awhile I see Lambs Quarter. Chicory is edible too. I've never seen it in my own yard but it grows along the roadsides in town. I think it must like asphalt. It has pretty blue flowers. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Plants for a Future Database
Purslane, mouse's ear (I don't recognize it, but Mom always added some to her greens), dandelion (just a few leaves since it is bitter). These along with the ones you covered, Ceresone, are what Mom would pick each spring. BTW, tomato seed keep viable for 4 years! So order away. Just seal them in a baggie and keep in the fridge. Lots of garden seeds keep even longer that that. |

All the wild violets are also edible. My favorite is the earliest blooming, the tiny Johhny Jump Up. I pick the whole plant when it has the blooms on it and add them to salads. The little flowers are particularly delicious. Wild Rocket is edible and I don't know if you would call it a weed, but one of my favorite spring greens is watercress. |
Oh, I forgot watercress. Mine is still green, but a little too short to pick. I have Johnny Jump Ups so will be trying that. I don't know if I have wild rocket....that's a new one for me. |

wild amaranth and wild lettuce are also edible when small. |
Boy, I didn't realize how many there are that I don't recognize. I am remembering an Arkansas native woman who wrote a book about wild edibles. She went barefoot. I can't remember her name, do you? |
- Posted by christie_sw_mo Z6 (My Page) on Sun, Jan 4, 09 at 7:52
I didn't know wild violets were edible. I have a couple kinds in my yard but I don't know what they are. I looked it up on the website below and it gives viola odorata the highest edibility rating. |

I was reading about morels on the web and one of the sites said cattails were edible. Plants for a Future gives it a edibility rating of 5 (highest rating). It's native to Missouri but I think they're considered aggressive. |

Maybe there will be a recipe book, "100 Ways To Cook Henbit" -- there's enough of it in my yard to keep everyone alive, at least, for a long time--- Sunny |
I was just thinking I should know the weeds better than I do. I especially need to know what the seedlings turn into. I just pulled up something that looks like parsley replanted it then pulled it up again. There is a weed with attractive blue foliage that I would like to identify. I tried eating chickweed raw and did not like it. |
- Posted by christie_sw_mo Z6 (My Page) on Thu, Mar 26, 09 at 6:36
lol Helen - I've replanted weeds before too. I'm not sure what either of those would be but you could try posting a photo. Sunny - we have a lot of henbit too. Dandelions aren't blooming here yet. When they do, the henbit won't be quite as noticeable. If you find that cookbook, let me know. lol |

I used to hear a lot about Ewell Gibbons. He was into using wild plants for food. I have the book " Feasting Free on Wild Edibles" by Bradford Angier. And, " Using Wayside Plants" by Nelson Coon. I am sure both of those books are now out of print, but might be found on Amazon, or E Bay. I once thought I would like to get into doing that, but the biting bugs deterred me. :-( I also have a Peterson Field Guide on Eastern/Central Medicinal Plants. Marian |
Mo Dept. of Conservation used to sell a book, Wild Edibles of Missouri by Jan Phillips copyright 1979. Some of the edible plants don't taste good; they are for starving people. The part on acorns was funny; they taste bad evidently. |
Marian, It wasn't Ruth Stout, I can just see the woman, she also wove baskets, looked native American but that might just because she wore her hair long or braided. I could be wrong; it was many years ago I saw her on PBS TV. |
Glenda, I think I vaguely remember her too....I don't know what we could google to find her. Oh me...I just remembered. I have her book! It is/was Billy Joe Tatum! |

even the dreary foggy mornings are beautiful
April 5th, 2009 by knitnzuTrek chose the pink bag! Congratulations to Trek!
in this morning's news
Now that you've shot it, how do you cook it? The photos were not appealing. This is where I'm going today. Good thing I enjoy most people, even ones who I don't share a lot with.
yesterday's fog
Doesn't it look like they are at the edge of the world?
This is what is just over the edge of the world,
I love this place. It's just an old quarry pit (right at this photo above), but I still love it. It feels so northern to me. Not the northern forests, obviously, but still northern. Some days in some places I smell sweet fern, some days the pines, but it's the days when I smell balsam poplar that I realize how much I like this place.
And then there's the sound of 8 rampaging paws thundering into the water,
(this goes away as the season gets hotter and drier).
Aren't the colors subtle and beautiful?
I totally understand the mythology of people from misty cool places. Maybe at some level these stories are part of my bones.
Right now to get here, one has to walk all the way through the cemetery (after Memorial Day, the gates are open and one can drive to the back of the cemetery, which is also the local meet and great place, mostly for men).
On the left, all the "beds", and on the right, you can almost see the tree I call The Sentinel,
And at home, little drops of water on the moss on our wall,
If I was a really good bryologist, I'd know what this is… but I'm not and I don't. I would guess that it's a Bryum. If you have a vague interest in mosses, check out the International Association of Bryologists Blog, especially the topic links on the left. You'll find some basic info (what is bryology), and course info… they have the Eagle Hill class announcements posted. I've always wanted to go there, but for one reason and another have not been able. Nancy Slack is teaching a class, and she's a great teacher for beginners, as well as for more advanced students.

How To Make Fish Tacos
Need to know how to make fish tacos? Making fish tacos can bring a new twist to your next home-cooked Mexican fiesta! Who says an excellent taco must be made with ground beef or chicken? Making fish tacos is simple and painless with this recipe, especially with delicious ingredients including onions and black beans. This recipe for fish tacos serves four.
To make fish tacos, you will need:
- 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
- 1 green pepper, seeded and sliced into thin strips
- 1 cup sliced onion
- A 15 oz. can of black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 4 tilapia fillets
- 1 package of taco seasoning
- 8 six-inch flour tortillas, warmed in the microwave if preferred
- 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1 1/2 cup shredded lettuce
- A non-stick pan
- Cook the tilapia. To make fish tacos, start by cooking the fillets. Any method can be used to make fish tacos, but this recipe will use a non-stick pan. Place the fish in a non-stick pan with a tablespoon of oil on low to medium flame. Sprinkle the fillets with taco seasoning, wait four minutes, turn the filets over, sprinkle with taco seasoning and remove from the pan after four minutes. Break into bite-sized pieces and place them in a bowl.
- Saute the vegetables for the fish tacos. Heat the remaining oil in the same pan over medium high heat. Add the bell pepper and onion and cook for five minutes until hot. Remove from the heat and put in a bowl.
- Make the black bean mixture for the fish tacos. In a small saucepan, combine the black beans, sour cream and cumin. Set the pan at medium heat and cook about three to five minutes until blended and hot.
- Assemble the fish taco. Spoon the bean mixture into the flour tortilla. Next, layer the fish taco with the bell peppers and onions and the fish pieces. Top off the fish taco with cheese, tomatoes and lettuce.
Remember, fish tacos can be made with many fish. Try cod, flounder, halibut and even shrimp.

SiamoSoci, the marketplace for ventures, a great opportunity for Italian startups
Submitted by Editorial Staff on Thu, 05/04/2012 - 18:25
SiamoSoci, the marketplace for startups and potential investors, online since last october, has yesterday announced the closing of some deals due to the great potential of the platform.
Rocket Design (Rock design furniture) found support for 100k euros in only 48 hours; Viamente (Route Planner) raised 300 k euros and Geomercato (online spending a short chain) raised 500 k , a co-investment between private and the VC fund dPixel.
We are not speaking of millionaires investments, yet, but the Italian startups ecosystem is steadily growing and some other data disclosed by SiamoSoci return an idea of vivacity.
In few months, SiamoSoci sought the registration of over 380 startup companies and 200 investors, 40 completed projects have already been published on the site, 10 million of investment capital potentially available.
"It' s obvious that the Italian startups eco system is growing. For younger who believe in this and in their ideas, SiamoSoci is a powerful tool that takes advantage of the great power of the internet. Much depends on how the startup is presented: if the economic evaluation is reasonable and informations complete, investors interest is immediate. Rocket Design is great example, 100.000 euros in 48 hours for Italian context is an absolute record. Italian startups now have an extraordinary opportunity to reach investors with whom they would never come into contact. On the other hand, we also offer several benefits to investors, referenced deal flow, access to business plans and the opportunity to meet with other investors and get the deal together. "
The registration on the platform for both startups and investors is currently free, SiamoSoci requires only a commission on the investment operations carried out, temporarily suspended until September 2012 to promote the growth of the participants to the platform.
SiamoSoci was founded by nine businessmen (some well-known in digital industry) who have combined their experiences of success in the web and in the financial sector with the common goal of stimulating growth through innovation and the creation of new businesses. The vision that brought together the nine entrepreneurs in SiamoSoci project is strongly oriented to the development of young Italian talent, as a means of sustainable economic development of the country.
SiamoSoci philosophy is basically "angel investing" , based on the belief that ideal interlocutors for new business are senior entrepreneurs with financial resources, expertise and strong networks.

Pete Doherty: 'I've stopped injecting drugs'
Pete Doherty has claimed that he has stopped injecting drugs.
The former Libertines rocker told The Independent that he had been inspired to clean up his act by his new girlfriend.
He said: "I've stopped injecting. The only way I can see myself in a serious relationship is if I am toning it down a bit. When you're banging up all day you can't really have someone else in your life, especially if she's an English rose. I wouldn't let her touch anything. I just wouldn't."
The singer also confirmed rumours that he was the father of South African model Lindi Hingston's baby. Doherty, who already fathered a son, Astile, with Kill City singer Lisa Moorish in 2003, said he had been upset that Hingston had sold her story to a newspaper and also joked that he would use the blood of his daughter in a painting for his new UK art exhibition, which will run at London's Cob Gallery from February 26 to March 4.
"I'm really surprised she's done that [talked to a newspaper]. The little girl was two months premature. I said I'd try to be there for the birth," he said, before confirming: "Yeah, she's mine. We're using the baby's blood in one of the pictures."
Pete Doherty recently returned to live action in London, playing two solo acoustic shows at Brixton Jamm last month and a gig at Nambucca earlier this month (February 5).
The shows saw him play a number of new songs, including 'Siberian Fur', a collaboration with long-time cohort Wolfman and 'Bird Cage', which featured the vocals of singer Suzi Martin.

Ron Jennings, a successful Money for Life Guide in West Chester, Ohio, emailed this Adrian Rogers quote. While you are reading it, reflect on the policies and practices of the federal government during the Great Depression.
"You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."– Adrian Rogers, 1931 – 2005
The most prosperous decades in American history for the common citizen occurred in the late 20th century when the Federal Government reversed the policies of the Great Depression and reduced its meddling in the personal economics of the American family.
Unfortunately, those also turned into the decades of the greatest financial frauds in American history. Not the least among these frauds (but the least recognized and reported) are the pork-barrel projects of the power and money hungry Dolts in DC.
The problem we Americans face today is that our personal economies are being attacked by the cons in Congress and White House Wonks. Their attack is based on the false premise that Adrian Rogers stated so clearly just a few years ago (above). The saddest aspect of the current attempt to reduce the individual liberties of every American by a small majority of committed liberals is that it failed in the 1930s and it won't work today. Moreover, the elitists in Congress are unwilling to apply to themselves the same standards they want to apply to unsuspecting Americans – that includes you and me.
The greatest attack on your personal economy comes from the proposed National Health Insurance plan. The simple reality is that the "plan" is more complex and convoluted than even Medicare and Medicaid – both of which are riddled with fraud and neither of which has reached a level of fiscal discipline needed to become a model for all of America.
Even worse, the "plan" favors big unions, big business, big government, and big bureaucracies at the expense of everyday citizens and small and micro businesses like the Avon lady, the child care center, the local independent insurance rep, small manufacturers and distributors, the local plumber, electrician, and heating contractor, and too many others to mention.
The greatest fraud, however, is that there is not a single congressperson that has read and evaluatedthe several 1,000+ page bills that are being bandied about the halls of the Capitol; nor will they. They plan to lift our liberties right out of our pockets and they don't care enough to know all the details.

So I was reading about Tesco pulling out of China and it reminded me about Tesco profits falling earlier this year.
I used to be a big shopper in Tesco, I'm talking massive amounts for the house. But now, I can't stand em and these articles remind me of why I avoid Tesco if I can. The biggest reason is how many shops they've opened up in my local area, off the top of my head, I can locate 10 within 15-20 mins driving distance.
Yes, 10 Tescos in a tiny part of London. I'm talking one massive one and loads of tiny ones, including 2 within a minute walk of each other. I don't know how they got away with it, but it's like anything that's constantly in your face and trying too hard, you end up getting tired of it.
For me, I prefer to drive an extra distance to go to an Asda for large amounts of shopping. It's a longer drive, but at least I'm content knowing I'm not contributing to a company who believes expansion is the way to win the hearts and minds of consumers.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Emma!
Facts about Emma
- Breed: Shih Tzu
- Color: White - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn
- Age: Adult
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Emma's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Emma is an adorable 8 year old ShihTzu that entered foster care with her littermate, Riley. She is a very affectionate little pudge that loves to lay in bed and watch TV. It would be important to her to be adopted with her sister. Their previous owners are quite ill and can no longer care for them. They are very well behaved and know all the basic commands. They are used to traveling with their previous owners and love to ride in the car and play with their toys. They love their dog beds and come morning you will always find their beds full of the toys they decided they need to sleep with. Emma's foster mom swears she can talk and says "mom" and 'mamma." She is just as cute as a button in her puppy cut. She has a lot of personality! She is up-to-date on all of her shots and just had her 6 month heartworm preventative. Emma is an absolute riot. She is very bossy and will talk and talk until you figure out what it is she wants. She is so funny her foster family loves to get her going. She even stamps her feet. She is a total character that is just so much fun to be with.
Other Pets at IMPACT for Animals
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Emma, a Saint Louis Shih Tzu dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Shih Tzu for sale in Saint Louis, or seeking a Shih Tzu dog from a breeder in Saint Louis.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Saint Louis already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Saint Louis breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Shih Tzu breeders who help with Shih Tzu rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Saint Louis paves the way for another one to be saved.

Former Moffat County players enjoy homecoming
Saturday, October 6, 2012
Members of the 1967 football team have enjoyed the royal treatment all week, but being back in the town they grew up in with the friends they grew up with has been reward enough, according to the players.
Darrel Camilletti, a junior from the state runners-up in the 1967 season, said it was fun to see his teammates, some of whom he hadn't seen in years.
"It's been good to get together," Camilletti said. "Some of these guys, we haven't seen each other since we graduated."
It was an effort from the Moffat County Booster Club to bring back several of the players and honor their success. While several of the players honored still live in Craig or the surrounding area, some were coming from far away.
Dan Carpenter, an all-state lineman from the team, was visiting from Sandpoint, Idaho, while all-american tailback Mike Loyd lives in the Denver area. Camilletti said it didn't take long for the players to get talking about their run from that year of football.
"We talked a lot about the season the couple of days," he said. "We've done a lot of reminiscing actually, talking about what happened. One of our coaches was here, so it's been an interesting couple of days."
On Thursday the Booster Club hosted a prime rib dinner with the team, community members and the current Moffat County football players. Then, they rode on a float in the Homecoming parade and were introduced to the crowd before Friday night's game.
Camilletti said it was a fun experience from start to finish.
"The dinner was great," he said. "It was good to be with the kids and see the high school kids there, and it was fun to be with the public and reminisce with them, because there was some big support when we were going through the playoffs. It's just been a nice couple of days for the football players."

I want to thank the booster club and Moffat County High School, especially the Peroulis Dynasty, for making a bunch of old "jocks" feel like kids again. Homecoming week was more fun than pudding night at the rest home! My first wife and I will never forget the hospitality.
For the record..Ron Schaeffer did not fumble away the big game, and I will fight anyone who says different, (if you can find me). We wouldn't have been able to beat the "Little Sisters of Perpetual Sorrow, Beauty School, and Grill" girls team without Ron, and he darn well better know it! That goes for everyone on that 1967 team.
Thanks again,
Dan Carpenter

Hold on to your valuables, it's gonna be a bumpy ride.
Hold on to your valuables, it's gonna be a bumpy ride.
Second Z still has Gundam X. I is happy fan.
As for Wizardry, it still plays just like it did way back when. It's just prettier and with more story. The Japanese have definitely just evolved some aspects of the series, rather than taking it off in a whole new direction. The PSN game plays beautifully, but there is sadly more kanji than I can read.
It certainly seems that the rumors banded around shortly after SRW Z's release that it marked the start of a new Alpha-like series are now fully confirmed with the upcoming release of Z2, especially as it follows the same naming scheme (Dai-2-Ji Super Robot Taisen Alpha -> Dai-2-Ji Super Robot Taisen Z). The Z Special Disk in a way serves as Z's version of Alpha Gaiden.
Working from Z's plot, the final chapter of this series may do for multiple universes what Alpha 3 did for a single galaxy. Here's hoping Banpresto make the awesome strike twice.

27 years of gaming and still going strong
and now a Proud if slightly annoyed Father :D
Japanese Wizardry games are not a part of the western Wizardry series. They are all dungeon crawlers and generally have deep class and race options that are similar to those in real Wizardry games -- lizardmen and catmen and elves and dwarves and whatnot -- and combat is turn-based, but the similarities largely end there. The storytelling is simple, trite JRPG fluff, and there is no large outside world to explore.
I played Tales of the Forsaken Land, and what stood out about it compared to other JRPGs was that it was unusually dark -- more like Demon's Souls than anything else -- and the race, class, and skill systems were like a mix between D&D and old-school Wizardry. It was a decent game, but I got bored with it toward the end because even with shortcuts it was taking me a long time to make much progress.
Class of Heroes, I believe, also had Wizardry in the title in Japan, or it was implied to be a Wizardry spin-off. We talked about this in the review blog I wrote. It was also a long series of dungeon crawls with a class/race/spell system that was more like an old-school western RPG than a JRPG.
The lesson here is that dreams inevitably lead to hideous implosions.
Class of Heroes was a definite homage to the Wizardry style, but it didn't have that word in the Japanese title.

FYI Gaijin, we has a game page for that SRT game here: http://www.rpgamer.com/games/srtaisen/srtz2/srtz2.html It was there before you posted your column~
Really? Wow. Not used to THAT happening...
I did that, and you never even suspected. Mwa ha ha ha.
It's not what he's eating, but what's eating him that makes it ... sort of interesting.
Now I had been thinking that drawing on people's faces was a practical joke when someone is sleeping (Jiggypuff springs to mind here).
But two different greeting cards have a character with a circle drawn round one eye, which seems a bit of a odd coincidence. So is that due to a new years custom instead?

Programs and Campaigns |
For over 35 years nationally, and almost two decades in New York, the Children's Defense Fund has worked closely with state and local child advocates as well as national and state organizations serving children to level the playing field for children through a variety of campaigns and initiatives. CDF has worked to educate the public about policies and issues impacting children's lives, and has provided the public with information and tools to improve the lives of children.
Our current campaigns and programs build upon this long legacy of success by empowering communities and advocates to create the change our children urgently need.
CDF-New York brings together a robust group of stakeholders – namely medical providers, social service agencies, educators, city and state administrators, and community leaders – on a quarterly basis to learn about initiatives and programs impacting New York's children and youth. To read more and/or download materials from our most recent meeting, click here.
The Children's Defense Fund recently launched the Cradle to Prison Pipeline® Campaign, an urgent call to action to stop the funneling of tens of thousands of youth, predominantly minorities, down life paths that often lead to arrest, conviction, incarceration, and diminished futures. The prison pipeline is fueled by pervasive poverty, racial disparities, inadequate access to health and mental health care, gaps in early childhood development, disparate educational opportunities, chronic abuse and neglect, and overburdened and ineffective child serving systems. CDF is working with partners across the country to engage communities, policy makers, legislators, communities of faith and other stakeholders to work together to dismantle the cradle to prison pipelines in their community – and to build the pipelines to success. Learn more about CDF-New York efforts to dismantle the Cradle to Prison Pipeline and how you can get involved.
CDF's annual Beat the Odds program honors, celebrates and rewards extraordinary high school seniors who have overcome tremendous adversity to achieve academic excellence, demonstrate leadership in their communities, and aspire to attend college to continue their education. Since 2001, CDF-New York has awarded more than 25 college scholarships to outstanding youths in the New York City area. Many recipients have gone on to pursue advanced degrees and leadership positions in their communities. Learn more about the CDF Beat the Odds Scholarship program in New York and how you can get involved.
The CDF Freedom Schools program provides summer and after-school enrichment that helps children fall in love with reading, increases their self-esteem, and generates more positive attitudes toward learning. Children are taught using a model curriculum that supports children and families around five essential components: high quality academic enrichment; parent and family involvement; civic engagement and social action; intergenerational leadership development; and nutrition, health and mental health. Learn more about the CDF Freedom Schools program in New York and how you can get involved.
The YALT program is conducted by the Children's Defense Fund on the behalf of the Black Community Crusade for Children (BCCC) campaign. The YALT program is a critical component of CDF/BCCC youth leadership development work. The program is two-fold:
Build a movement for children. The YALT program maintains a national network of young servant leaders committed to child advocacy and social justice. The national Young Leaders Action Network is a forum to engage servant leaders across the country in ongoing dialogue and effective action necessary to address the toxic cocktail of poverty, illiteracy, racial disparities and massive incarceration that is sentencing millions of children to dead-end, powerless and hopeless lives and threatens to undermine the past half century of racial and social progress.
Train a new cadre of young leaders. With an esteemed faculty and core training team, YALT equips young servant leaders with intensive and specialized training so that they can return home and continue to sow the seeds necessary to build a movement for children. YALT is designed to train and prepare young servant leaders 18 to 30 years old to be a strong and effective voice for all children but especially those left behind. The three-day organizing and advocacy-based curriculum is offered at regular intervals throughout the year at the Children's Defense Fund's Alex Haley Farm in Clinton, Tenn., CDF's spiritual renewal and servant-leadership development center for building a movement to save children. Join the Young Leaders Action Network to get connected to upcoming training and community outreach opportunities.
Every third weekend in October, CDF invites faith leaders from across the nation to join together to invoke their faith and renew a commitment to children. Congregations of all faith traditions are asked to participate in CDF's Children's Sabbath weekend of reflection, prayer, and action for children in New York City, and throughout the state and nation. Faith-based initiatives have the power to deliver important messages about children's health and well-being. Learn more about the National Observance of Children's Sabbath celebrations in New York and how you can get involved.

New York Observer sources claim the firm is calculating whether it can turn around the publication's losses, which are estimated to have hit USD30m last year. The rumour comes on the back of CEO Rupert Murdoch's confirmation that the firm will split off its publishing division from its stronger entertainment sections amid falling revenues and a phone-hacking scandal in the UK that has severely dented its brand image

Remember True Crime: Hong Kong? The rather tasty-looking, United Front developed John Woo fest Activision canned because "it just wasn't going to be good enough", as detailed in our feature The best games you'll never play?
The one Square Enix scooped up last summer for a 2012 release? Well, it's apparently now called 'Sleeping Dogs'. As in, let lie.
Well sorry, Square, but we're not letting this dog lie. We rather liked what we saw of the game, mystifyingly binned during the preview stage, and the appearance of some tattooed artwork is pleasant news indeed. As is that August release window.
The artwork comes care of retailer Future Shop, which has since pulled it (thanks TSA), and fits a recent Square Enix trademark (sorry, Kane and Lynch fans).
More as we get it.

As huge supporters of the Alzheimer's Association after very personal experience and deciding to dedicate our professional efforts to providing dementia and memory care among other elder care, we share and support your wish! - Wade Adams

As huge supporters of the Alzheimer's Association after very personal experience and deciding to dedicate our professional efforts to providing dementia and memory care among other elder care, we share and support your wish! - Wade Adams
Help is on the way. IGIV, a blood plasma product, is working through Phase III clinical trial in Pittsburgh and has shown impressive results in slowing or stopping dementia in those with on-set AD. If initial results are confirmed the regulatory hurdles will be minimal, as plasma is already cleared for multiple medical applications. But there is a problem: production. There is no way current capacity can meet notional demand, raising the cost per patient for 30KUSD to, well who knows what one would pay to keep their mind sharp. I would guess a lot.
I speak as a clinician who consults on the psychiatric/behavioral aspects of Dementia. The tool used is neuropsychological testings to tease out the specific symptoms of cognitive decline when they become evident. The effort is to correctly identify the differential diagnoses which in turn will have bearing on disease treatment and prognosis.
There are by DSM IV-TR Classifications 10 different types of Dementia, each with distinct diagnostic criteria. Of these 10, some have preventable etiologies, some do not. Dementia of the Alzheimer's Type is an example of the latter. Vascular Dementia (formerly Multi-Infarct Dementia) is an example of the former.
The distinction between what is preventable and what is not preventable is of importance. The former is linked to diet and life-style and therefore to some extent a person has some degree of control about preventing it. The latter is not and therefore there is little a person can to about preventing it.
This etiological distinction, from my clinical observations, ceases to make any difference when the symptoms of cognitive decay are in their advanced stage, with or without behavioral disturbances. I have worked with extreme cases of PTSD survivors of Khmer Rouge. Very difficult work. I was able to "carry" (so to speak) my patients without undue emotional stress on myself. I cannot do the same with Dementia patients. It is very hard. I often wonder what indeed lies inside their heads when a squeeze of the hand meets with no response and yet the person's brain and other faculties are obviously still "working", as manifest, in the former, in visual hallucinations, depressed mood and/or agitation, and in the latter, the ability to still ingest, digest and eliminate food.
All is very hard, for the caregiver and the disease stricken.
That's worthwhile work, ash. We work to try cure diseases, but there hasn't been much success. In the meantime, because I think that may be a long time, I think there should be more attention on what we can do to make these people's lives a little better. The answer to that is probably going to be less medical, than human.
Halleluja! Yes! Am I reading this from you, Whipper? In the end all is about being human. There is no medical cure. There is no everlasting life (nor would that be preferred, for crying out loud!). There is....uh.... what helps to make the suffering person suffer just a little bit less. Suffering takes place on many planes. In the case of Dementia, to connect, so the person doesn't feel utterly alone even as the light in the mind is dimming while the heart still beats and the brain still works (after a fashion, in this case usually intermittently), is to have succeeded in my line of work. It is not easy. And there comes a time when even the hallucinations are gone and darkness is finally complete before there is success. But, as you said, the trying is worthwhile.
Life, on average, is a function of statistical probabilities. Life, in particular, is subject to random variation. Thus it's possible, alas, to eat healthy foods, exercise strenuously and often, and keep one's mind active and yet still succumb to various chronic ailments including dementia. The problem for humanity at present, however, is that such "unlucky cases" are by far the exception. For the most part, people fail to eat properly, they fail to take adequate exercise (no, gardening or gentle walks really don't count, despite what people might claim) and fail to challenge their minds continuously. The result is a population of flabby, lazy, dormant people who succumb to illness years before they should, and who drain health care funds on pointless keep-alive-for-as-long-as-possible interventions. Until we change our fundamental habits of living, dementia will continue to claim more people in the closing decades of life.
I disagree with your statement that "IT'S obviously good news (unless you have a pretty dismal view of humanity) that we are living longer"...
No, simply "living longer" is not necessarily great news.
What I hope for, for myself and for my fellow humans, is to live well for as long as possible: to be independent and lucid, not to be simply alive but without the enjoyment of life's possibilities.
Without meaning to talk about your friend specifically, I wonder if that means that the intellectual activity has been kept up? It is possible to have a degree from Oxbridge but allow the mind to become stale over time, a halt to learning new things for example.
Thank you for your message, Omricon. My friend had indeed kept his mind active since Cambridge, and still attempts to—and it is all the more galling to him that he can recognise his own mental decline. We keep our fingers crossed for effective drug palliatives...
I wish your friend well too, J.A.
The medical solution might come in the medium and long term, but sophisticated AI tools are already available (i.e. Mr Watson), and more enhanced guard robots could be built. I am sure the DoD and NASA could pinch in and use their know how.
During his run for the GOP nominee for POTUS last year, Newt Gingrich claimed the single greatest threat to U.S. security was the looming costs of Dimentia (Alzheimer's disease). He was right.
Individuals must carefully sort out their health care directives while they have the capacity to understand what it really means since they have a 50% chance of suffering from this wretched illness if they reach 85 years of age. Do they really want to be parked in a wheelchair against a wall in a health care facility corridor where they recognize no one for years on end? Gunther Sachs wanted no part of that existence. And there are many like him.
Sincere condolences to you and your friend who suffers from Lewy Body Dimentia. It's absolutely heart breaking.
"Intriguingly, a high level of education and intellectual activity seems to have a protective effect."
Does commenting on TE blogs count? :)
I think yours does. Unfortunately, I'm afraid that mine are less of an intellectual activity and more of a bowel movement.
I don't know. That particular activity seems to be when I do some of my best thinkin'. :)
D18 and Whipper,
And the closest description of mine is perhaps incontinence by you guys' metric. :)
Seriously, there is some evidence brain aerobics is good for keeping a fit mind. Explains why some news stations kind of propagate unfit minds. And there is no birth control for that procreation. :)
As long as I can still watch "The Voice", and "The Biggest Loser", I'm good. :)
With AI and robotics continuing their onward marches, and with a large portion of the cost of looking after people being labour, looking after large numbers of elderly people might be more affordable than it currently looks.
It would be great to have a magic pill cure - but as an article elsewhere in the Economist shows this 'retrofix' approach does not work too well in the US. Meanwhile you could try not retiring and taking more exercise, which does seem to help!
Pensions will soon become a things of the past: baby boomers will need to go back to their kids' houses and be catered for by their families, since paid care will soon be unaffordable.
Many baby boomers were absent parents. Others in that generation and the silent generation before it divorced while their offspring were in childhood.
Those who were not put first in childhood may not be willing to accept such a hard burden in adulthood.
Those who were put first in childhood, and will gladly care for their own parents, may resent being forced to pay for the care for the less responsible parents of others.
It's gonna be ugly.
With Age comes Wisdom......And Dementia.
A demented, fried brain in a Florida nursing home watching FOX News in an adult diaper, able only to repeat only nonsense syllables
=> has the same equal vote to an active community-engaged, university professor with several advance degrees in economics, politics and government and head of a small family.
And that FL voter is in a critical swing state!
That is the problem with democracy.
Perhaps only the Sane, Competent and Educated should vote.
--I think that is what Jefferson intended.
Do you mean one has to be pass on all three counts or one would do?
Can you be competent and not sane? can you be Sane and not competent. And if you leave school are you really educated.
You seem to be losing the connections between the dots!
I can identify lots of people who shouldn't have the vote - people who carry guns, people who are racist, people who watch Fox news, people who buy the national Enquirer, etc, etc..
But guess what: we live in a democracy and those people probably think a liberal like me shouldn't have a vote eiher.
But relax, Chances are that most dementia suffers wont vote - my father was a die-hard voter - dementia took his desire to vote (and, fortunately, to drink whiskey). His choice before dementia wasnt that good anyway
"IT'S obviously good news (unless you have a pretty dismal view of humanity) that we are living longer"
It's obviously good news only if you expect that someone else will be glad to change your diaper and pay for your medical bills for the longest possible time.
As I just noted in a comment on life expectancy, while I hope to get my three-score and ten-plus, I do not want to outlive my brain.
To much of America's health care waste is due to a fear of death and a denial of its inevitability. There are worse fates.
In the absence of a cure, there is a brutally hard moral dilemma building with dementia. At its worst, is it not, in effect, brain death? Is it right to devote resources that are needed elsewhere to maintain a body without a mind?
I'd like to be able to write a living will that specifies my end in the event of advanced dementia, even though my body might be healthy. I don't see Americans being brave enough to give themselves that sort of choice anytime soon.
In Europe it´s common law, that you may write your "hospital client testament" and exclaim or include several cases, in which you don´t want to be reanimated.
Here we can see abusing cases of this "testament", that elder people are more or less "forced" by family to end "their useless life with legalization".
Me special, I got simliar case: during pregnancy I aquired TTP [=Trombocytopenic Trombotic Purpura(Moscovic Syndrom ~ with following "blood-poisoning"), daily blood-transfusions, artificial feedage + long coma.
One day,triggered by an hospital-infection, I got heart interruption: dead.
The german medicals FIRST asked my father, wether they should try to reanimate, because maybe of oxygen- deficient supply my brain could have taken damage.
If I had such an "hospital-testament", which advices for case of cerebral damage, the medicals would´nt have asked my father for "graduation to kill", they would have just rest my dying...
So my father insisted strictly in "all possible, which they know" and refused "mashine-offing/cutting" (which was artificial feedage, aspiration-help + daily transfusion)
No, today I´m happy to live (most time) happily/satisfied + I´m glad not to have suscribed before to "killing licence".
But MAYBE I lost some important brain-power, which now refuses to reflect about... ;-)

...I posted this awhile back I hope no one minds my reposting it. I "pinched" it from another forum and I thought to keep it as a reminder that we are all doing the best we can and to keep it handy when the uninvolved (worthless) family members and/or well-meaning friends/outsiders "opinions & discussions" (read that as infighting & general lack or support) start to question & critisize the caregiver.
This poster's done a wonderful job saying what many of us are thinking. Feel free to print it out and maybe even give it to the person(s) that need to wake up and see our reality of caregiving. Blessings ~~ katclaws ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ As a caregiver it is my duty to be the best advocate for my loved one that I can be. This means that I will probably; be a pain-in-the-butt, ask stupid questions, be a know-it-all, piss you off, get pissed at you. So What! If you think you can do it better just try. ~ It is my responsibility to take care of myself so that I can be a patient, kind, loving and responsible caregiver. This means I might rant, rave, cry, whine, laugh inappropriately or laugh hysterically. So What! If you think you can do it better just try. ~ I am aware of the truth and I try to make educated decisions. I no longer have the luxury of living in denial. ~ I refuse to explain, convince, justify, apologize or in any way feel guilty so that you can feel better about your excuses for your lack of concern or commitment. ~ I understand that your assessment of my motives is a reflection of your moral character, not mine. ~ If my asking for help is a sign of weakness to you just reflect on the fact that I am the one carrying the load and you are the one carrying excuses. So which of us has the strength of the ox? ~ I have a right to feel vulnerable. Alzheimer's Disease has a way of wiping out one's sense of security. ~ It is not my obligation to educate you. It is your responsibility to educate yourself so that you understand why I must say and do thigs that you deem inappropriate when I interact with my loved one. ~ I'm entitled to resent the fact that you feel the need to protect your interests. I suspect this comes from your inability to protect ayone else's interests. ~ I have a right to be angry when you aren't concerned for the day-to-day care and well-being of this loved one but insist on making the big decisions. ~ Whether I am the spouse, sibling, child, grandchild, blood relative or in-law caregiver of the afficted is irrelevant. I and my loved one have the same needs and feelings, regardless. ~ I am proud of myself even when I don't always handle things well. Afterall I am caretaking from a position of love. ~ When all is said and done I have self-respect and a sense of peace because I am doing all that I can to make my loved one's last days filled with love and dignity.

There goes unbiased news not that there was any to begin with.
WTEN, WXXA share staff under new plan
ALBANY A behind-the scenes consolidation of two Capital Region television stations became apparent to the viewing public this weekend when on-screen reporters from ABC affiiliate WTEN appeared on FOX affiliate WXXA.
The move is part of a shared services plan announced this summer by Shield Media LLC, which bought FOX 23 this summer, and Young Broadcasting, which owns WTEN. One of the first visible signs of this partnership was the coverage of the shooting at the Sandy Hook School in Connecticut, with WTEN's Amy Cutler appearing on FOX 23.
WXXA has let go some of its top leadership, including the general manager and news and sales directors, according to two sources familiar with the move who weren't able to speak publicly about the changes. These functions will now be performed by WTEN staff.
A receptionist for WXXA said Tuesday that Bill Sally, the former general manager, no longer works there and that Andy Alford, the WTEN general manager, has that job. A call this afternoon to Alford at WTEN was not immediately returned.
Moving forward, reporters from both stations will be appearing on each other's stations, including at this afternoon's broadcasts.
Additional operations, like social media, will also be shared between the two stations, according to sources.
wmarincic: I wouldn't worry about it. WTEN, is owned by ABC/Disney, and is already pretty corporate and right wing friendly.
They should call WTEN "the fear station", because not a newscast goes by that they they don't warn us of some perceived danger, or impending doom.
You'll still have plenty of stories to become illogically enraged and fearful over.
I thought WTEN was broke. They have more technical goofs than any of the other area news station, because they hire on people who'll work for peanuts, and that's about all they're worth.
It's too bad they didn't include the Daily Gazette in the shared services agreement. As I recommended many year's ago the only way the Gazette could make it online was to find a partner.
For me it's worth paying for the E-edition of the Daily Gazette. We've been subscribers since day one but we're rare and I know you're losing money. It's annoying that I can't share links to local Gazette stories on Twitter or Facebook (although there are tricks if I really want to)
Maybe you guys need to talk to the Sinclair Broadcast Group, the owners of WRGB.
Bill Pytlovany
I disagree with BilP about making the Gazette online edition free. I won't comment on partnerships, but I will say that the news model just doesn't work when you give away your content for free. That is why the WallStreet Journal and NY Times have a pay wall. It costs money to produce content and web ads, while certainly a source of revenue, have not become a big enough source to fund an operation like the Gazette. I think that rather than encouraging more papers to abandon the pay wall, I think that more papers should adopt it. When I was a kid someone told me that you get what you pay for, and I have found that to be true with free "news". I will continue to subscribe in both print and online and encourage the Gazette publishers to keep fighting the good fight.
WTEN is owned by Young Broadcasting, not ABC/Disney.
But they get their marching orders from ABC.
"You know, at one time there must've been dozens of companies making buggy whips. And I'll bet the last company around was the one that made the best ... buggy whip you ever saw."
I'm pleased to see someone else with the passion to want the Daily Gazette to survive. For the record I'm not suggesting the Daily Gazette give away any content their reporters work hard to gather and verify. I want a news team that works independently of one group of advertisers. I want a news team that includes a fact checker, a copy of the AP Style guide and has an education in journalism. The staff I know from the Gazette are professional journalists. I certainly don't want to depend on Twitter of Facebook for my news.
The Daily Gazette does not have the audience of the WSJ or NY Times. They will not be able to provide the news I described based on a subscription model. If it was possible I'd say go for it but they can't live in denial like our friends in Rochester did. Sometimes you need to change or you die. I'm not saying a partnership with WRGB is the solution but it can't be business as usual.
I'm also with Dan. I used to work at ABC/Disney and they didn't have a clue what WTEN was doing.

I personally believe that Mexican foods are very delicious & maintain quality to serve better health.
A couple of years back, I put four white supremacists in prison. They had made the mistake of going into the Slater Slums of Huntington Beach, the city's traditional barrio, to kill a random Mexican. They got as far as stabbing a man before the Slater Slums smackdown began: The community came out from their apartments and kicked the shit out of the KKKlowns — a beatdown of wonderful, ironic proportions. Not a single Mexican was arrested; the Candy Ass Gang, as we called them, went away for years, convicted on hate crimes.
I discovered that the crime was premeditated, announced on a white-power Internet radio show just weeks before. But I also discovered that the attackers loved Mexican food: A bunch of pictures a source forwarded to me showed the pendejos in various states of devouring burritos and tacos from Del Taco, the Mexican fast-food chain that's known for being better than that Taco Bell mierda.
Race traitors? Hardly. Just following American policy: Hate the Mexican, love the Mexican food, assault the Mexican, get your ass handed to you by Mexicans. This has been America's experience with Mexicans, a cycle of justice that must be remembered when considering what's happening to this country right now in the wake of SB 1070 and its many copycats. Those Know-Nothing politicians, judges and voters who pass law after law trying to stop Mexicans from asserting themselves in this country are like King Canute commanding the tide to stop: The game is already over. We beat you with our Mexican food long ago, and we're going to beat you on SB 1070 as well.
Although the dinner table may seem an unlikely battleground, you've got to know your history, kids. Food is one of the first things a conquering group demonizes when trying to repress a smaller group. The Spaniards tried to wean the Aztecs off tortillas and into bread, to no avail. During the Mexican-American War, urban legend had it that animals wouldn't eat the corpses of fallen Mexican soldiers due to the high chile content in the decaying flesh.
Similar knocks against Mexican food can be heard to this day in the lurid tourist tales of "Montezuma's Revenge" and in the many food-based ethnic slurs still in circulation: beaner, greaser, pepper belly, taco bender, roach coach and so many more. "Aside from diet," the acclaimed borderlands scholar Américo Paredes wrote in 1978, "no other aspect of Mexican culture seems to have caught the fancy of the Anglo coiner of derogatory terms for Mexicans."
But that's all an undercurrent in the larger story of Mexican food's conquest of this country to the tune of billions of dollars: tacos, tequila, hot sauce, chile, Chipotle, Rick Bayless and so much more. If America had truly been successful in its anti-Mexican campaigns over the past 150 years, it would have eradicated our cuisine à la the dishes of all the Native American tribes we exiled to permanent ethnic curiosity. It's not like politicians haven't been down this road before: Dudley Do-Rights have long tried to ban street vendors, taco trucks, cottage-food industries and other Mexican culinary traditions from suburbs and cities alike, only to see the common American repudiate them again and again.
And that's what's going to happen with SB 1070. It will go down as did California's Proposition 187, which sought to make all government workers migra agents but later was declared unconstitutional. It'll fail like the mass deportations of Operation Wetback in the 1950s and those that occurred during the Great Depression — government mandates that Mexicans and the Americans who hire them quickly ignored. It'll fall like Los Angeles — once one of the most gabacho big cities in the United States, now run by a hell of a lot of Mexicans and their obsequious gabacho counterparts.
Hell, even Tom Tancredo loves Mexican food. The notoriously anti-Mexican former Colorado congressman debated me about assimilation in Denver during the fall of 2010. And what did we eat before the philosophical fisticuffs? Tamales.
America: If Tom Tancredo, who did his damnedest to stop Mexicans from coming into this country and left a failed legacy on that front, admitted defeat with each bite of a millennia-old meal, then so will you. Don't worry: We'll be nice. And we'll make sure to add an extra shot of tequila to your frozen margarita when the courts, either now or in a decade or two, realize that SB 1070 is the Plessy v. Ferguson of the 21st century and overturn this pendejada. In the meantime, keep stuffing your face with tacos!
I personally believe that Mexican foods are very delicious & maintain quality to serve better health.
Can't wait till we have the peace and solemnity of Ciudad Juarez right outside our windows!
that article was so stupid you can like whatever kind of food you want and not like the race i like german sausage but i hate hitler get it?
You say America's love / hate with Mexicans and Mexican food. Then you go on to say KKK ate Mexican food. You twist your words exposing your racist view of Americans as KKK. America is all races. Our constitution tolerates extremes from far Right to far Left. There is too much far Right and too much far left. They are minorities. All the Mexicans I have known drink Budweiser. Mexican Cerveza is better than Budweiser. Go have a Budweiser. I will have a Corona. Please Google: RTD Light Rail / Bus Collision Course
This article was very one-sided and short-minded. Like Cplboone stated, the author has lumped every Mexican, both legal and illegal, into the same bucket and has done the same for KKKlowns, Tancredos, and every other Gringo in the USA. If you wanted to bicker about American's love for something produced from Mexico how about discussing our love for the drug cartel's produce section?
What part of Illegal do you not understand? Most people I know including Tom Tancredo do not have a problem with a Legally Immigrated Mexican or any Legal Immigrants and they are welcomed with open arms. The Problem comes when Mexicans disregard our laws and enter the US Illegally. I do not understand whats so hard for you idiots to understand about that? It seems so simple to me. Its Funny that you do not use Illegal in your trash story once. Its also a disgrace to all Mexicans who Immigrated to this once great country Legally, that you lump all Mexicans Legal / Illegal in the USA together in 1 group. Yes I know they are 1 group in Mexico, but there is a differance in the USA. SMH

Let's face it: keeping up with pop culture is difficult. With more than 1000 channels worth of TV shows, not to mention a new flood of movies and music every week, it's practically a full-time job to keep up with everything. Luckily, it is my full-time job. So after the jump, your cheat sheet to the TV shows you need to watch, the albums you need to hear, and the movies you need to see. This week, George Clooney and Ryan Gosling double team us in "The Ides Of March," Feist counts down "1234″ toward the release of her new album, and Ryan Murphy tries to scare us with his latest, "American Horror Story."

Cain Daytona Cigars
Cain Daytona
The Cain Daytona is one of the latest offerings from Studio Tobac. While it is still a mostly ligero cigar, this Daytona is not nearly as powerful as it's brothers the Cain Maduro and the Cain F. One reviewer noted that it should have been named "Abel.
The foot of this Cain Daytona smells of cedar mixed with a hint of berries and a slight touch of pepper. In fact after taking a good whiff of this cigar, I ended up sneezing. Upon lighting the first inch of the Cain Daytona is heavy on the spice and pepper side of the spectrum but after that the spice and pepper fades away into the background. Taking over for that spice and pepper is nuts, coffee, and some sweet creaminess that reminds me of a Werther's Original.
All in all, the Cain Daytona is an excellent addition to the Cain line and in many ways shows that the Cain isn't all about strength, it can be about flavor too.
