Pondering the Padres' poor pen
Pondering the Padres' poor pen
Pondering the Padres' poor pen
By Lee Kostroski
San Diego Padres
One wouldn't normally tab a bullpen as struggling if their current closer is 8-for-8 in save opportunities and has yet to allow a run. However, the San Diego bullpen, sans closer Heath Bell, has been somewhat of a dumpster fire as of late.
Bell has yet to blow a save, but the remainder of San Diego's relievers have combined to throw away eight save opportunities already this season. Opposing hitters are spanking the Padres bullpen around to the tune of a .282 batting average. They also sport an ERA of nearly 5.00.
The pen is walking nearly as many batters as they are striking out. In actuality, their overall 1.49 to 1.00 strikeout to walk ratio is much worse than it may appear if you take out Heath Bell's ratio which is 7-to-1. That number drops to just 1.25 to 1.00 if you exit Bell from the equation.
Adding fuel to the fire is the fact that a few formerly reliable middle relievers are struggling right now. Cla Meredith, who has a lifetime ERA of just over 3.00 in his three year stint with the Padres, currently has an ERA of 4.50. He has also blown three saves this season.
Duaner Sanchez had a very successful run of four years with the Dodgers and Mets before coming to San Diego in 2009. He has not lived up to his billing with an ERA of 6.75, allowing a whopping 19 base runners in just 9.1 innings.
The Padres have lost 11 of their last 13 games heading into Wednesday. During that stretch, the bullpen has allowed 28 earned runs in just 32 innings pitched. Their starters aren't going deep into games either, which doesn't help. Jake Peavy is the only starter that is averaging six innings per start.
A glass-half-full optimist, or a true-blue San Diego fan, might have reason to believe this will turn around soon. The Padres have had a tough schedule playing 19 of their last 26 games on the road. After finishing off their series in Wrigley Field, they play nine straight home games. They also play host for 16 of their next 22.
However, a simple change of venue doesn't mean the pitching will improve. Bettors should take a wait-and-see approach on San Diego as long as the bullpen is stumbling.
Milwaukee Brewers
Brewer closer Trevor Hoffman has been praised in the "other bullpen snipits" in past editions of this column. But it's time to include the entire staff. Hoffman is still a key, or even the key, component to Bernie's bullpen. He has converted on all six of his save opportunities and has yet to allow a run or a walk. This is a huge stat for a team that blew eight saves this year before Hoffman, who had 27 saves last year, returned from the DL. Now, Hoffman's supporting cast has been pulling their weight during this hot streak.
After starting the season with an alarming 4-9 record, the Brewers have now ripped off 15 wins in their last 20 games. While their bats have come alive, much of that success can be attributed to the pitching staff.
The starters, who were shaky early on, have improved and are doing a solid job. The rotation is not great, but they have pitched well enough to win for the most part. The bullpen is the real bright spot. Their ERA during that 20 game stretch sits at 3.50.
Milwaukee has a nice mix of long relievers and setup men to go along with Hoffman. Carlos Villanueva is becoming much more comfortable in his setup role after struggling big time in April. His 5.51 ERA is not overly impressive, but much of that lofty mark was gathered early in the season. Villanueva has not allowed a run in his last five appearances.
Mark DeFelice (1.08 ERA), Seth McClung (3.18 ERA), Mitch Stetter (3.27 ERA) and Todd Coffey (3.24 ERA) round out a very solid corps of relievers that has allowed opponents to hit only .231 BA on the season.
The Brewer's lineup is among the best in baseball and will no doubt score runs by blasting home runs out of Miller Park. That said, the key to this team's continued success will be the pitching staff. If the bullpen keeps rolling this team will have a great chance in the NL Central.
Other bullpen snipts
Texas Rangers: The Rangers bullpen is among the shakiest in baseball this year and they are about to get worse. One of the lone bright spots in the pen, Frank Francisco, is out for the next several games due to a bicep issue. Francisco has pitched 14.2 innings and has yet to allow a run this year.
Philadelphia Phillies: Brad Lidge was as close to a sure thing as you could get in 2008. He had 48 saves in 48 attempts last season. This year he has already blown one save and his ERA is soaring above 8.00. There is growing concern in Philadelphia that his lingering knee problem isn't going away anytime soon. His velocity is down from a year ago and he has allowed at least one earned run in four straight appearances. This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on.

United States Senate election in South Carolina, 1938
The 1938 South Carolina United States Senate election was held on November 8, 1938 to select the U.S. Senator from the state of South Carolina. Incumbent Democratic Senator Ellison D. Smith defeated Governor Olin D. Johnston in the Democratic primary. The general election was contested, but a victory by Smith was never in doubt.
Democratic primary[edit]
Senator Ellison D. Smith was marked by President Franklin D. Roosevelt for defeat because he had vociferously opposed many policies of the New Deal. Governor Olin D. Johnston announced at the White House that he was going to challenge Smith in the Democratic primary and would be fully supportive of every Roosevelt policy. State Senator Edgar Allan Brown also threw his hat into the ring pledging that he would back Roosevelt and would be the most effective candidate in bringing home the bacon.
Johnston's complete backing of Roosevelt earned him the endorsements of several liberal organizations, such as the Labor Nonpartisan League (LNPL) and the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO), but these two organizations were frowned upon in South Carolina. They advanced racial integration, advocated labor militancy and were believed to have been controlled by Communists. Smith hammered Johnston for having these ties claiming that Johnston "endorsed the nigger, and went one hundred percent for anything belonging to the New Deal, right or wrong, because he does not have guts to disagree."[1] Smith then boasted of his endorsement by the racially exclusive American Federation of Labor (AFL) and stress that a vote for Johnston would embolster the CIO to force the employment of blacks in factories alongside whites. Though Johnston did not defend rights for African Americans,[2] he would largely ignore the issue of white supremacy,[3] believing that improving the public welfare was more important,[3] while Smith had campaigned for over thirty years on a two plank platform to "keep the Negro down and the price of cotton up"[4] and had further demonstrated he intended to continue the fight to preserve racial segregation when he walked out of the 1936 Democratic National Convention after learning that a black minister was going to deliver the invocation.[5][4]
On August 11, Roosevelt's train stopped in Greenville to a crowd of 15,000 with the three candidates aboard. He had spoken the previous day in Georgia against the re-election of Senator Walter F. George and was expected to make an endorsement of Olin Johnston at Greenville. Roosevelt criticized Smith for his 1937 speech in the Senate that South Carolinians were willing to work for fifty cents a day. Yet before Roosevelt could finish his address, the train started to leave. Smith trumpeted up the fact that Roosevelt never explicitly endorsed Johnston and responded to Roosevelt's charge that his Senate speech was taken out of context. Johnston claimed that it was insinuated by Roosevelt whom he supported and he made it clear that he boarded the President's train in Georgia, whereas the other two candidates boarded just outside of Greenville.
Brown felt slighted by the President's brief remarks and withdrew from the race on August 27. Smith was supported by two powerful figures in South Carolina politics: Senator James F. Byrnes and his friend Charleston mayor Burnet Maybank. Unlike Smith, Byrnes was a well known pro-Roosevelt New Dealer and was also renominated in the 1936 Democratic primary by a margin of over 87%.[6] Heeding advice from Byrnes,[7] Maybank declined to run for Smith's Senate seat and instead ran a successful campaign for Governor that year.[7] In spite of his strong support of almost all of Roosevelt's New Deal legislation, Byrnes opposed some of Roosevelt's labor legislation,[8][9] which Johnston outspokenly supported,[8][9] such as the recently passed Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938.[8][9] Byrnes and Maybank, however, did not like Smith and only endorsed him because they envisioned that he would retire in 1944[7] and Maybank, having served a term as governor, would easily win his seat.[7] Byrnes and Maybank also envisoned that after Maybank was elected to Smith's Senate seat, they would then manage to build a strong political machine that would control the state's political scene.[7]
The primary election was held on August 30 and Smith won a commanding victory over Johnston. In order to win, Johnston needed to rack up huge margins in the Upstate, but the two candidates broke even. Smith overwhelmingly won in the rural areas because Johnston's constant emphasis of his labor roots made the agriculture voters feel that he did not care about their interests.[10] It was also believed that at this point in time, however, that the large majority of people of South Carolina had become fed up with Smith and that he would've lost the primary if not for Roosevelt's interference[11] or if he had done more to either please the state's influential textile mill owners[12] or address the issue of preserving racial segregation in the state.[12] In 1940, a survey found that there was no great admiration for Smith among the people in South Carolina and that his victory in the 1938 primary was symbolic because it showed that an unpopular person was elected because "the president picked him out as the victim."[12]

Candidate | Votes | % |
Ellison D. Smith | 186,579 | 55.4 |
Olin D. Johnston | 150,437 | 44.6 |
General election campaign[edit]
Despite a Republican candidate being nominated for the general election contest, there was never any possibility that Smith would be defeated. The Republican Party was nothing more than a patronage institution and at the time was widely despised by the South Carolinians for bringing destruction to the state during Reconstruction.

Registration fee is $15, which includes a Continental breakfast and coffee break. To register, call 315-464-8668. All presenters are members of the SUNY Health Science Center faculty.
Myth: Breast cancer is the most common killer of women.
Fact: Heart disease is the number one killer of women. A women's chance of dying from heart disease is one in two compared with one in 27 for breast cancer. Cardiologist Robert Carhart, M.D., assistant professor of medicine, will offer an indepth look at how heart disease affects women.
Myth: There's no cure for osteoporosis. It's an inevitable part of aging.
Fact: While there is no cure for osteoporosis, there are things that can help prevent and/or treat the disease. Arnold M. Moses, M.D., professor of medicine, and F. Deaver Thomas, M.D., professor of radiology, will discuss how a healthy diet and exercise can help prevent the disease.
Myth: Birth control pills increase the risk of ovarian cancer.
Fact: Oral contraceptives reduce the risk of ovarian cancer. However, there are other benefits–and risks–to consider before selecting this method of birth control. Mary Cunningham, M.D., director of gynecologic oncology, will discuss various gynecologic cancers and their treatments.
Myth: With the right attitude, you can snap out of depression.
Fact: Depression–twice as common in women as in men–is an illness just like diabetes and heart disease. About 80 percent of people with depression respond well to treatment, but unfortunately, only about 50 percent of patients seek treatment. Jennifer C. Yolles, M.D., assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences, will present the latest in treatment alternatives for depression.

Rhode Island Democrats should look to Massachusetts for some leadership on the economy. RIPR political analyst Scott MacKay explains why.
Rhode Island is once again ensnared in a noisy political campaign season. The stench of government corruption has led to new leadership on Smith Hill. Gordon Fox is out as speaker and Nick Mattiello is in. Democrats control both chambers of the General Assembly by big margins. Yet the historic majority party can't seem to speak with a coherent voice on our state's struggling economy.
It's been a year since bombs and blood in the streets shattered one of New England's treasured civic celebrations. RIPR political analyst Scott MacKay parses the lessons of the Boston Marathon bombings as this year's race approaches.
The stench of corruption has once again encircled the Rhode Island Statehouse. Rhode Island Public Radio political analyst Scott MacKay says it may be time to try something different on Smith Hill.
Unless you have been living in one of those 1950s-era nuclear bomb shelters, or the old East Side tunnel, you've probably heard of the latest Statehouse scandal. The state police and federal IRS and FBI agents raided the offices of House Speaker Gordon Fox 10 days ago. The next day he abruptly resigned.
Once again, Rhode Island is attracting national attention for all the wrong reasons. RIPR political analyst Scott MacKay has some thoughts about the federal raid on Speaker Gordon Fox's office.
The specter of corruption in high political office haunts Rhode Island. As it has seemingly forever. For a state still in the grip of the recession, there are few things worse than the scene at the Statehouse Friday.
What does "Dude where's my car?" have to do with Clay Pell's campaign for governor? Rhode Island Public Radio political analyst Scott MacKay has some thoughts.
How do you know your campaign is in trouble: when your car is getting more attention than your ideas.
That's what's happening to the infant campaign of Clay Pell, who would like to be our next governor.
Every serious candidate says Rhode Island's poor economy is the top issue in this year's governors' race. RIPR political analyst Scott MacKay says it's time for Rhode Island to sort economic myth from reality.
Say hello to any of the five major candidates for governor and you'll get a marathon run of rhetoric on the need to create jobs in our struggling state. On the Republican side, Ken Block and Allan Fung have both talked about ushering in a better business climate, lowering taxes and looking for ways to save taxpayer money.
Money isn't everything in political campaigns. Yet, it is a lot of things, explains RIPR political analyst Scott MacKay who ponders the role of campaign cash in the 2014 RI Democratic gubernatorial primary.
Jesse Unruh, speaker of the California Assembly, coined the term back in 1966. ``Money,'' said Unruh. ``is the mother's milk of politics.''
The 2014 campaign for Providence mayor has become a most difficult campaign to handicap. RIPR political analyst Scott MacKay explains why.
With Mayor Angel Taveras running for governor, the parade is forming to take over City Hall in New England's second largest city..
So far, five serious candidates are preparing campaigns: Four Democrats and Republican aspirant Dr. Daniel Harrop, a psychiatrist.
Just when we thought we knew that next year's Democratic gubernatorial primary field was set, it suddenly was not. RIPR political analyst Scott MacKay talks about the Clay Pell factor.
Herbert Claiborne `Clay' Pell IV is a scion of a storied Rhode Island political family. He's the grandson of U.S. Sen. Claiborne Pell, a quirky, even eccentric politician who nonetheless never lost an election in six terms, despite facing the toughest opponents our small state could muster.
It's been a half-century years since the assassination of John F. Kennedy. RIPR Political analyst Scott MacKay explores why Kennedy loved Rhode Island and why the Ocean State loved JFK.
Our state is America's smallest but it loomed large in the life of John F. Kennedy.
From the time Kennedy was a young man, he and his family were shaped by experiences in Rhode Island. If any event forged the career of John Kennedy it was his World War II heroics as patrol torpedo lieutenant in the U.S. Navy.

Kris, I didn't forget that point of the requirement for the participants to be male. I deliberately left it out in hopes that interested parties would read the referenced materials and learn that fact on their own. I did not think it worthwhile to repeat all the details so adequately covered in the referenced aricles. Hopefully, if they read that much, they will develop enough interest to come forward as a participant. However, your points are right on target. Frank |

Gwen Stefani Bikini Pictures in Malibu With Gavin Rossdale
Gwen Stefani Wears a Bikini Top to Show Off Her Rock-Hard Abs at the Beach With Her Boys
Gwen Stefani was in a bikini yesterday for an afternoon out in Malibu with her husband Gavin Rossdale and their sons Kingston and Zuma. She looked super fit in her black top and long skirt combo, which showed off her amazing abs. Gavin, meanwhile, was shirtless to wade into the Pacific with Zuma and Kingston. It was the end of a fun week for the foursome, which kicked off on the previous Saturday when Gavin's band Bush performed at the Sunset Strip music festival. Gwen's group No Doubt has been able to enjoy a brief hiatus from finishing up their new music, since Tony Kanal is off on a vacation celebrating his birthday. Gwen and Gavin also made sure to pack the last few days with good times in honor of Zuma turning 3. His big day was on Aug. 20, and he was able to wear costumes, get a manicure, and bond with his brother to mark the milestone.

Nick Cannon, Syfy Team for Nerd Improv Show
The weekly hourlong sci-fi/fantasy series would expand its variety offerings and join Wil Wheaton's weekly talk show.
Syfy is looking to expand its variety offerings.
The NBCUniversal-owned cable network announced Wednesday that it is teaming with Nick Cannon to develop a weekly hourlong sci-fi/fantasy improv series.
The show, which will be executive produced by Cannon's NCredible banner and Michael Goldman, will be taped in front of a live audience and feature two teams battling for the biggest laughs to win points and prizes. The "home" team will consist of four to six nationally known comedians. They'll go head-to-head with different improv squads in various sci-fi/fantasy-related sketches. A nationwide casting call will determine the "away" teams.
PHOTOS Summer TV Preview
The untitled series becomes Syfy's latest foray into the variety genre. Should the Cannon entry move to series, it could join Wil Wheaton's weekly talk show, which features the actor and geek culture expert dissecting sci-fi film, TV, video games, viral videos and more. The series comes as Comedy Central has achieved ratings success with its Chris Hardwick game show @Midnight, which features the Talking Dead host overseeing three up-and-coming comedians competing in timely pop culture trivia and other games, many with a sci-fi bent.
For Cannon, the entry comes as the America's Got Talent host also is prepping VH1's Drumline revival, in which he'll cameo as well as exec produce. NCredible also exec produces Teen Nick Top 10, Nickelodeon's React to That, MTV2's Wild 'n Out revival, and more.

Tom Cruise at Taj Mahal Pictures
Tom Cruise Poses and Premieres During a Whirlwind Weekend in India
Tom Cruise joined actor Anil Kapoor Saturday for a photo op at the Taj Mahal. It was one of the highlights of Tom's trip in India, which culminated last night with a Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol premiere in Mumbai. Tom apparently bedded down at that city's famed Taj Hotel over the weekend, where Anil hosted a VIP party from him and 150 guests Saturday. Tom was appreciative of all the effort put in by Anil, who has a cameo in MI4.
At yesterday's red carpet event, Tom said he'd loved to work in India. He said, "I love watching Hindi movies. There are many Hindi movies that come out every year, but I do watch a few of them. [If offered a Bollywood film] I would never say no. I would love to do it." There will be another press opportunity for Tom Wednesday when he and the cast reunite in Dubai for their world premiere.

I don't have a problem with digital distribution, so long as companies cannot remove access to paid for content, hold it hostage and/or prevent me from making my own backups. gog.com is the only service which has done this correctly, in that I can download what I buy and write it to whatever media I want, ensuring that I can keep copies for as long as I please.
It's unfortunate that there are no video services that allow people to do the same. I suppose you could vidcap your purchases and burn those, but you shouldn't have to do that.

Advocacy Advance is out to help states fully fund, fully staff and fully implement bicycle and pedestrian projects under MAP-21. In 2012, Congress passed the current federal transportation bill, MAP-21. With reduced and weakened dedicated funding, this bill is a disappointment for advocates – but eligibility for bicycling and walking projects remain. Advocacy Advance works with state and local advocates and agency staff to maximize the federal funding that is available for bicycle and pedestrian programs and projects. Learn more >>

"Did a half recipe using egg beaters and adding 2T wheat germ. Using cooking spray in the waffle iron makes them crisp right up. Very tastey."
"Crust is awesome - added a pinch of ground red pepper for heat. Served with roasted brussel sprouts and garlic potato salad."
"Used lemon and parsley in place of lime and cilantro (preference) and loved it. Light and fluffy dip. Served with a bag of corn tortilla chips."
"Good and easy. I didn't have any bacon so used deli meat with 2 pcs of asparagus on each slice on wheat bread. I can imagine bacon taking this over the top in taste, but taste was good my way I thought."
"Made almost as written - using 4 thin boneless pork chops pounded thin. Putting the stuffing in between two of them and toothpicked together making 2 servings.

Male college student from Virginia here. I've only ever owned Nintendo consoles, so if a game's not on any of those, I'm probably not interested. (There are exceptions, though). I'm also a huge fan of the Metroid, Pokemon, and Legend of Zelda series. That's pretty much all you need to know about me from a short blurb on a gaming website.

Endings: The Flooding of Hyrule
on 02.20.2012
Ocarina of Time
stunned everyone with its near-perfect design in 1998, the future of the
Legend of Zelda
series was uncertain.
is still, more than 13 years later, the top-rated video game ever on
. That's a lot to live up to. Two years later,
Majora's Mask
came out, and it was fantastic - but it seemed like more of a sidetrack than a sequel. It was very, very different from the rest of the series - after all, the titular princess wasn't even in it. As great as
Majora's Mask
was, I don't doubt that many people saw it as a quick walk off the beaten path before getting back on it, sticking to formula once more. Especially after the now-infamous Space World 2000
tech demo
, many people probably thought/hoped that the next Zelda game would be
Ocarina of Time
with Gamecube-level graphics.
Nope. Nintendo knew that
Ocarina of Time
had already been made, and they weren't going to make it again. Furthermore, Shigeru Miyamoto had just stepped down as the series' director, making the future of the franchise uncertain. Adding to that uncertainty was the fact that the early 2000s was perhaps Nintendo's hardest period ever (counting from when they became a full-time video game company). Cries of "Nintendo is doomed!" have been shouted forever, and continue to this day - but never were they louder than back then. And Nintendo knew they could not sell a flailing console by re-making a game everyone had already played, especially when that game's creator was no longer at the helm. So they made
The Wind Waker
. A game with a very unique artstyle, a very unique overworld, and even unique music. And a game whose ending left little doubt as to the future of the Zelda franchise.
Many people were put off by the huge number of changes
The Wind Waker
made to the traditional Zelda formula. The ending - if you watch closely enough - gets a bit meta by directly addressing these people.
Face it, Zelda fans: you were nervous (if not furious) when you saw the first previews of
The Wind Waker
. It just looked so *different*. But the game delivered, though I feel like it's only been in recent years that a consensus has formed around that. If
Wind Waker
isn't the very best game in the Zelda series, it's at least one of the best.
But this post is about the ending, not the game itself. Spoiler alert: Hyrule's been sealed away at the bottom of an ocean for 100 years, and in the final part of the game, Link must go down there to defeat Ganondorf and save the princess, as Links throughout history have a tendency to do. Stuff happens, bosses are killed, Light Arrows are obtained, and then Link meets Ganon at the top of a tower for the final confrontation. That's when things get *really* interesting.
First, Ganondorf talks about how desolate his home in the desert was, and how much he envied Hyrule; this is significant as being pretty much all the characterization he has ever gotten, and probably all that he ever will. We're finally given a little peak into Ganon's mind: he hated that he was born as the ruler of a miserable wasteland and not Hyrule. And this hatred made him want to have Hyrule, to *own* it. And he still wants it, even now that it's at the bottom of the sea. With the Triforce finally in his possession, he tells the Gods to give Hyrule to him.
But Ganondorf got to cocky; he thought he had already won. However, he had yet to actually touch the Triforce. Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule - the old King of Hyrule from before the great flood - touches it first. The King then makes his wish. What does the King wish for? To save his land, to return it to its former glory? No. He uses the Triforce to wish that Hyrule be
flooded and washed away forever
. All he wishes, beyond that, is to give Link and Zelda a future.
Ganondorf pretty much cracks at this point. Laughing maniacally, he denies that the kids will have a future and dares them to prove the Triforce's worth. Then the final battle begins. Really, the only thing I dislike about this final sequence is that it feels like a foregone conclusion - the Triforce has already been used, Ganon has already lost. Still, the battle itself is epic, and noticeably harder than any other boss battle in the game (though sadly, still a bit on the easy side). It all ends when - in a move that surprised a lot of fans - Link turns Ganondorf's forehead into a fancy new Master Sword pedestal. No sealing him away this time; he gets stabbed in the head, turned to stone, and is undeniably dead.
But let me back up for a moment. Hyrule gets
flooded forever
. This is the first Zelda game - the *only* Zelda game - where you fail to save Hyrule. And there is no doubt that this is the same Hyrule that we all remember exploring in
Ocarina of Time
- the "Hero of Time" is mentioned several times. Now that place is buried in the ocean, and nobody will ever return there.
Still skeptical that this has any symbolic significance? The next conversation with the King makes it, in my opinion, hard to deny. Maybe I should quote directly:
"Not a day of my life has gone by without my thoughts turning to my kindom of old. I have lived bound to Hyrule. In that sense, I was the same as Ganondorf. But you... I want you to live for the future." - Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule
"You could... You could come with us! Yes, of course... We have a ship! We can find it! We WILL find it! The land that will be the next Hyrule! So..." - Zelda
"...Ah, but child... That land will not be Hyrule.
It will be YOUR land!
" - King Hyrule
Hyrule floods, and the kids - but not the King - are protected by the Triforce and brought to safety. In what may be the saddest scene in any Zelda game to actually include Princess Zelda (i.e. other than
Majora's Mask
Link's Awakening
), the King of Hyrule drowns in the ocean, but not before uttering one last line: "I have scattered the seeds of the future..."
And that, ultimately, is what
The Wind Waker
's storyline is all about: moving on from the past and building a new future. Both Ganondorf and King Hyrule became obsessed with the past; in the end, their nostalgia was their downfall. In the final scenes of the game, there's a happy reunion with all the major characters, then some
beautiful music
, and then it's time for Link and Tetra/Zelda to set sail. As Tetra proclaims: "As for our destination... The wind will guide us!" In other words, it's time to forget what's buried under you, leave what's behind you, and find out what lies ahead.
To paraphrase Shakespeare,
The Wind Waker
came not to praise
Ocarina of Time
, but to bury it. In one sense, literally - the Hyrule of 1998 now lies buried beneath the sea. You'd have a hard time convincing me that this isn't symbolic of the franchise as a whole. Yes,
The Wind Waker
is different from what came before it in several ways. Nintendo realizes this, and uses the story itself to tell its fans: there can be no other way. To be stuck to the past, drowned in nostalgia, would only hold the series back. Zelda is a very flexible series, moreso than most, and there's so many different ways you can twist it, directions you can take it, while still maintaining that same feel and keeping all the elements that make it great.
The Wind Waker
was a turning point, for it was when Nintendo decided that the Zelda series, under its new director, could be used to push new boundaries and explore new heights.
Oh, sure, they released
Twilight Princess
three years later, and it was as formulaic a Zelda game as any. But series director Eiji Aonuma himself admitted that this was basically a last hurrah to the traditional Zelda format - that, basically, it did to
Ocarina of Time
A Link to the Past
did to the original
Legend of Zelda
. To this end, I personally think it did a fine job. Otherwise, Zelda really has been expanding its horizons ever since
Wind Waker
. It went full-on multiplayer in the
Four Swords
games, both on the GBA and the Gamecube; those are perhaps the most "different" Zelda games out there, other than maybe
Zelda II
. The DS Zelda games were imperfect in many ways, but they did attempt to differentiate themselves and experiment with the formula - not always for better, but at least they're trying. Then, more recently, came
Skyward Sword
, a game that really takes a lot of bold risks. Many of these risks paid off and feel like either much-needed improvements or a breath of fresh air; others... not so much. But that's the whole point of risks - not all of them are going to succeed, yet you won't get anywhere unless you try.
Anyways, when I hear/read someone claim that all Zelda games are the same, I have to wonder if that person has ever really played more than one or two of them. Yes, many of them share many elements in common - otherwise it wouldn't be a single series, just a bunch of unrelated games. (Although if you removed the series title from
Majora's Mask
and replace Link with someone else, it wouldn't really have anything to do with the Zelda franchise.) But no other series that I am aware of takes as many pains to make each installment a wholly new, unique experience; no other series I know of is used as consistently to push a console's boundaries, or to experiment with gaming mechanics in general. Zelda is a unique series for not really being a series at all, but a group of games that share a mythology and some structural elements. And I hope Nintendo uses this fact to its full potential. Because Old Hyrule is flooded now, and there's no going back.

I have ruined 4 bags trying this. I followed instructions, but ended up with big messes. Since you say apply to image that is the side I did. What happens to the cardstock? Mine just stayed there. Is it supposed to peel off? Tried that too, doesn't work. Further instructions would be nice. Everything I did was a disaster. Thank you. Janet Fenwick

Rated 3 out of 5 by Colorado1962 from Custom Printed Christmas Card I have ordered personalized cards in the past from Vista Print and have always been thrilled with the results. However, for some reason, this year, my cards were much darker than my original upload and the way they appeared on screen. My fault for not ordering early enough to complain and get a replacement, so if you're ordering, do so early, to assure that you're happy with what you get. I do an original painting each year and once printed, the colors were no where near the colors from the photo I took of the painting (what was a light blue was almost black on the card). I will upgrade to the linen cards from now on, not the glossy ones, as I think that may have been part of the issue.

Reviewed Sorbet Bar
Nov 7, 2011 in Food Network Community Toolbox on FoodNetwork.com
"I like the recipe but I wanted to expand on the idea of it, so I bought 3 more sorbets and several tubs of icecream, about 8. I wanted my kids to really get a "salad bar" feel, like the recipe says, to "have it their way." I brought in all the right toppings, no butterscotch. Word to the wise: jimmys don't mix well with sorbet.

I've been going to this restaurant since i was a child and still love going there since they maintain the quality of their food. the only problem I have is with the decor. its very dull and boring . i love their sizzlers
I went here on my sister's recommendation of a place in Hauz Khas, started with some decent vegetarian starters and had the best chicken sizzler ever for main course here. Will visit again.
I have been to The Chonas twice and enjoyed myself completely. good place to chill out with friends and have beer and enjoy a good meal. The service is bit slow, but the staff is co - operative. Great catching up joint, but less space to breathe out.
we planned to visit chonas after a long time as we had heard a lot of great things about chonas , we were pleased to be at chonas , we were put on a waiting list then we were seated and given the menu , the captain made us understand the menu and told us to try thai grilled chicken... More
Wonderful sizzles (if you are a fan of them). The place has 2 sit-outs, one on the front side is a quitter sit out and other on the back side of the market is with loud music. The food is very nice always and good place to have a small family party.
I have been to Chonas only two times but I have enjoyed this place thoroughly. This place is really chilled out and and full of youngsters just sitting around with a beer and hanging out. Don't expect to be dazzled because Chonas isn't anything special. What really is special about this place is the servers, the ambience and the laid... More
Love the mojito , sizzlers are also yumm.. have been there a lot of times, being 2 minutes walking distance from my home
regards ma'am . we are glad to have you as our guest and will make sure to satisfy your taste buds always .have a great day More
My spouse and I were in New Delhi for about a month, and we found ourselves returning to Chonas a number of times. The food was excellent (some of the best butter chicken we found - and great garlic naan bread), always good and always fresh. The restaurant is busiest in the afternoons - particularly on weekends. In the afternoon... More
Downright scary! We went there a little after dinner time, around 10 pm, & chose to sit on the terrace. It was my husband's birthday eve, & what a disaster! Soon, a group of shady looking Indian & African-American men came & occupied the table next to us. A scantily-clad woman of African-American origin accompanied them. I do not want... More
thank you maam for your valuable feed back we would improve on the lighting More
I can @ least say the staff was very nice. But the ambiance was not what my friends and I were looking for. While the place itself is relatively nice looking, there was a DJ playing the most depressing music. It was more like someone who wanted to kill themselves was playing the most morose songs they could find. There... More
Thank you sir for your valuable feed back as the feed back will help in improving the service and we would make sure that the staff explains the difference between lemon and lime More

Kimon from Greece November 29, 2010 3:00 PM Last Edited 1524 days ago WSBK » Toseland set for BMW Italia outing Although I like Ruben, I still can't understand why Ten-Kate signed him... He didn't do too much on the BeeMer. Unless...he brinks 'sponsor money' with him and the 6 languages that he speaks(PR ?) (not quite sure about the languages, think I've read that somewhere in the past...) Reply Report abuse 3 agree 0 disagree
Kimon from Greece November 02, 2010 8:26 AM MotoGP » Mixed feelings for numb Pedrosa @rotsa ruck... In order Vale and Dani have the same points after Valencia: Vale 1st...(217+25=242) Dani 10th(236+6=242) Vale 2nd...(217+20=237) Dani 15th(236+1=237) Vale 3rd...(217+16=233) Dani 0pts(236+0=236) So, if Vale finishes lower than 2nd, Dani has the 2nd place secured even if he doesn't score any points.

Everyone knows about
Victoria Beckham
's main collection—sublime, exquisitely tailored dresses and accessories that cost about as much as a car. Her secondary line, Victoria by Victoria Beckham, is about to wildly broaden her customer base. She showed the spring collection to a small group of editors this week, and it is just so cute, not to mention
more affordable ($450-$1,200). The beautiful tailoring is there, but the shapes are a bit looser and the colors and patterns a bit more whimsical (the cats on one dress were inspired by comic book character Emily the Strange). Click through for the entire collection.
