Our Garcinia Cambogia Fruit Powder is a 50% extract meaning each serving contains a 50% concentration of the HCA (Hydroxycitric acid). Garcinia Cambogia works by raising the serotonin levels in your brain, the natural chemical in our body that regulates mood. When a person eats carbohydrates, amino acids are pulled out of your blood to break down the sugar. During this process, room is created in the brain for chemicals used to create neurotransmitters like serotonin. In essence, the brain eventually knows that eating carbohydrates will stimulate these neurotransmitters and provide a feeling of happiness for the moment. Garcinia Cambogia naturally enhances serotonin without the need of eating carbohydrates allowing you to feel happy and satisfied. Some possible traditional uses of Garcinia Cambogia Fruit Extract Powder may include: ● Supporting a healthy immune system ● Supporting healthy body weight ● Creating a process in the body called thermogenesis ● Supporting healthy liver function ● Promoting healthy cholesterol levels ● Supporting a healthy gastrointestinal system Our Garcinia Powder is cultivated without chemicals or pesticides.

Rangarajan says non-food, manufacturing prices have shown signs of decline
C. Rangarajan, Chairman of the Economic Advisory Council to Prime Minister, has said though non-food, manufacturing inflation had shown definite signs of decline, spiralling prices of food items was impacting overall inflation.
On the sidelines of an ITsAP annual industry awards function here on Monday, he said vegetable prices appeared to be on the rise again, including commodities like milk and vegetables, apart from cereals.
Diesel prices
As if this was not enough cause for concern, he said changes were needed to be made as regards diesel prices when asked about its de-regulation.
The point was that since prices of high speed diesel were not adjusted in a long time, the impact of such a move to bring it on a par with international prices could be high if effected at one go. Hence, it would have to be done in phases, he added.
Depending on the monsoon and international markets, a 7.5 per cent growth could surely be expected, he said in reply to a question. Earlier, he said imaginative and innovative use of IT could be the means to take quality education across the country. India's techies needed to focus on education and find solutions. With technology as the driving force for economic growth, he said the world was witnessing a revolution which could be as far-reaching as the first industrial revolution.
Positive impact
IT had a positive impact on payment and settlement systems, he said, adding with path-breaking initiatives, the 'electronification' of payment system had become the hallmark of the last decade. With a whopping 700 million mobile telephones in place, it would be worthwhile for banks to ride piggyback on the mobile telephony platform to achieve financial inclusion, allowing authentication of identity and transactions through a secured gateway, he said.
The awards were given away in different categories. Verity Knowledge Solutions bagged the Best Start-up Indian company, while Microsemi India, Hyundai Motor India Engineering and Xilinx India Technology Services got the awards for the Best State-Up Off-Shore Development Centre (ODC), Best Indian SME in software development and the Best Established ODC, respectively.
The Tier-2 City Awards were bagged by Mahindra Satyam, PB Systems India, Trewport Techno Consulting and Gajalakshmi Software Systems, named as Best IT Company from Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, Kakinada and Tirupati, respectively. The ITsAP Green IT Awards went to Infosys, Wells Fargo India solutions and Tata Consultancy Services. In a new category introduced this year, Infosys, Wipro and Mahindra were recognised as top exporters from Andhra Pradesh.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Write a Review10 of 31 Reviews
bought two of these now from the Maplins store in Wakefield , absolutely fantastic for my DSLR Nikon cameras and lenses , so easy to mould and shape the insert to whatever your requirements so nothing falls out and everything is protected, would deffinately recommend
I've been using one of these cases for nearly 7 years now for microphones. It's stood up to numerous tours, getting chucked in vans and cars, it's been dropped, kicked and stood on and is still going strong! Whilst I wouldn't rely on the locks to keep anyone out who had much determination, they're a nice little touch to ease your mind! I've actually not bothered removing any of the precut foam, it's just soft enough to allow for anything up to 2 inches thick to be held securely with the case shutting around it. Whilst that might not be the most secure way of protecting my mics, it's meant that I've been able to adjust how I use it and extend the life of the case by miles! Well worth the money, highly recommended!
three of these little chaps have transported all my pioneer dj gear (2x cdj 1000's and then a pair of cdj 900's as well as a djm 600) for 5-6 years it's not big enough for the djm 900 but hey! they're a complete space saver vs the all in one dj coffin cases and are ultra manageable in small areas (like small venues.... and cars!) i'm sorry i didn't go with these from day one
I've been using one for sometime now as a Transmitter case for a Spektrum DX7s. A great sturdy case, and ideal for purpose.
Fast delivery, The case was better than described, The foam insert was very easy to shape to my Yaesu FT-857 and there was plenty of room for the radio and all its bits + a LDG Tuner ,It is ideal for me to take mobile
Fantastic value for money.
Very Impressed with case it did the job i wanted and very happy with it i will shop again with you.
Bought one of these a while ago from Maplin. Good sturdy design. I use to keep wireless microphones for video and found that there was enough room for the receiver and sender units, lapel mic, Zoom recorder, spare batteries etc. Good buy.
Great service form the phonecall to the delivery, hery happy with the item and the overall experience, thanks
nice - even better @ offer price

Can the foam be neatly cut using a Stanley Blade?

You do not need a hot wire to shape the foam in this case. The foam insert is of the 'pluck' type , you pluck out the small square pre-cut pieces of foam to suit your requirements.

My 50th HS reunion is coming up. There are 4 Catholic HS's in this city and we pretty much knew everybody in the other schools back in 1956-1960.
For that reason, we'ce decided to celebrate with a joint dinner/dance at a local spot. Each school is responsible for decorating its tables. One of the schools (all male) has decided not to decorate its tables at all. Another has decided to have balloons in their school colors as their decoration. It's not in my nature to decorate a table this way.
The tables are round tables, set for 10. As a starter, I'd like to have a clear glass candleholder, cylinder shaped, surrounded by grape ivy . Then maybe some "pretend diplomas" tucked into the ivy.
I didn't mention there's a budget of $10 per table. The candleholders are mine, so those are free. Any suggestions from the creative members that post here? |

Well, this is probably over-used, but it's free. How about printing out cards at each table that have top events of 1960. I found this on the internet, but I'm sure there's lots more: SPORTS NBA: Boston Celtics NCAA Football: Minnesota Heisman Trophy: Joe Bellino Stanley Cup: Montreal Canadienss: World Series:Pittsburgh TOP SONGS 1."El Paso"...Marty Robbins 2."Running Bear"...Johnny Preston 3."Teen Angel"...Mark Dinning 4.Theme from "A Summer Place"...Percy Faith 5."Stuck on You"...Elvis Presley 6."Cathy's Clown"...Everly Brothers 7."Everybody's Somebody's Fool"...Connie Francis 8."Alley-Oop"...The Hollywood Argyles" 9."I'm Sorry"...Brenda Lee 10."Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini"... Brian Hyland TOP MOVIES 1. Ben-Hur 2. Psycho 3. Operation Petticoat 4. Suddenly, Last Summer 5. On the Beach 6. Solomon and Sheba 7. The Apartment 8. From the Terrace 9. Please Don't Eat the Daisies 10.

This didn't get posted correctly. Print the info on small playing cards. The back of the cards can be one of your school colors and the printed side could be the other colors. You can scatter them around the table top. |

If you have an old yearbook or old photos with everyone's picture, copy the picture and use this as placecards. |
We'll have gift bags with each person's grad picture on the front and we have a group class picture (8x10) in the bag along with HS trivia questions and lists of some of the "happenings" that took place from 1956-1960. I believe I'm going to buy some old bound books and spray paint them in our school colors. Then I'll place the candle holder on a stack of 3 books for some elevation. I found bags of small plastic gold numbers that read "50" and I'll probably scatter them on the table around the ivy. Any thoughts on how I could improve on this? |

No way, the color is gorgeous <3
I love it when the eyelashes are big and a color different than the eye or hair, the effect is amazing then <3

Thank you~!! :D
Ah, yes, I should have put some more effort in her eyelashes! Thnx for mentioning, I totally forgot about them. Next time I do something like this, I should use some sort of reference.
Ah, by the way, did the colour of the eyelashes look awkward to you?
I was originally thinking of drawing them in black. But I accidentally picked up my blue pencil instead of my HB... ^__^;;
Otaku Legend | Posted 02/13/10 | Reply
Thank you!! I'm really happy to hear you like my colouring. *blushes*
I've used red, purple, HB pencil and white gelpen to colour it. Here and there you might be able to see some yellow because I tried making highlights in the eye with yellow pencil. But the colour doesn't look good with red in an eye. T^T It's good a gum exists!

Featured Artists
Joni Mitchell
George Harrison
As she might be said to have started off a trend for confessional song- writing with her 1971 album, Blue, we have put together as part of our celebration of Joni Mitchell's 70th birthday a list of the 50 most soul-baring singer-songwriter albums,
the compilation of which reminded me of a conversation with Elvis Costello I had many years ago about this very subject, about which he inevitably had some pretty forthright opinions.
It was May, 1989, and I was in Dublin to interview Costello about Spike, his new album, just out, but we had somehow ended up talking about an unhappy earlier period in his life, the turmoil of which often found its way into his songs, many of them notable for their unsettling candour. It had seemed to some that he may have courted emotional distress for inspiration, a suggestion that led to the following exchange.
"Was I purposely fucking up my life to give myself something to write about?" he chuckled mordantly. "I think I did that for about a year," he added with a weary laugh.
"And that's at the very most. Then I began to mistrust the results. Because if you do that, it's like when they pour acid into rabbits' eyes or something. What does it prove? It proves that it hurts the animal. Very smart. It's unnecessary research. And I guess I did some unnecessary research for a while. Then I'd write something that would scare the hell out of me. Like there's a couple of songs on Get Happy!! that when I read them back, I just scared the hell out of myself. And I thought, 'Uh-uh. Better not think any more about this. It's going too far.' Because you can think too fucking much, you know. And it gets a bit fucking evil.
"I can recognise sometimes when I went too far. But then again, I was never really that specific. I mean, people who really do pay too much attention for their own good have tried to peg certain songs to certain people. It's like a game, isn't it? That started in the '70s with people like Joni Mitchell. People always wanted to know who those songs were about. And people have tried that with me, and they've always been wrong.
"Do I resent people looking for the autobiographical in my songs? No, I don't resent it. I just blame John Lennon. It's Plastic Ono Band, that album started it all. After that, everything was supposed to be fucking confessional. The early '70s were full of people baring their fucking souls for public scrutiny. There were records whose authenticity depended on their confessional aspect, and if you read certain magazines and the background interviews, you knew what these songs were about.
"And, for me, that always used to spoil it. Particularly when you found out what dickheads some of the people were that they were writing about. I'd rather have them be like Smokey Robinson songs, which could be about anyone. I don't think it's important that people know who 'Alison' was about. It's none of their fucking business. It's a song. 'I Want You' is a song. It doesn't matter who it's about. It's just a song. It's a really well-written song. It's also very personal. But you don't have to know the whole story to be touched by it. But there are still people, yeah, who want everything I've ever done documented and explained - but we're really getting into something else here," he said, perhaps recalling what we're actually here to talk about, which is his new album. "Like I say," he went on anyway, "it's all in the past. None of it means a damn. You can't go digging around for ever in the past. It's history. Let it fucking go."

3 Every Day
With all the press on Ray
Rice, the nation has been focused on domestic violence, and the overwhelming
statistics. Stats such as 3 women every
day die from domestic violence. And the
violence is coming from an intimate partner – spouse, boyfriend, or even a
It's estimated that 22%
of women, and 14% of men, experience physical violence, with the most common
being slammed against something, or being hit with a fist or hard object.
The saddest part about these statistics is the abused partner
usually stays in the relationship. Although you can hardly call it a
relationship. We wonder why. Why do they
stay? Why don't they get help? Why do
they protect the person? Why? Why? Why?
Good questions only the victim can answer. But it's usually
because they feel they have no other options. They've been beaten down
emotionally as well as physically. They
wonder how they'll support themselves. And
of course what if the abusing partner has apologized and shown remorse. Certainly
they wouldn't feel bad if they didn't love me. Right?
Most believe the abused partner is weak, has no self-esteem, or
doesn't believe they deserve to be happy.
But that's not always the case.
Sometimes they're a strong person caught up in a bad situation. Maybe they
either miss the warning signs, or just want to try and help the abuser to be a
better person.
Or, perhaps that was just me.
I never share this story, but now feel compelled to share.
At 19 I stupidly married an older man who'd had a bad, abusive
childhood. I wasn't in love with him. I
wanted to help him be happy. But at 19 I
was woefully unprepared for what I stepped into. I'd married an alcoholic, with more demons
than we had closets.
All the warning signs were there, but I believed I could help
him, until it was almost too late. The
excessive drinking, verbal abuse, threats, and pushing that escalated to
I slowly came to the realization I couldn't help him. You can't
help someone who doesn't want to help himself, or herself. I realized I had to protect myself. First step, hiding the bullets to the rifle
he kept in the closet – along with his demons.
Even with the warning signs and realization, I drug my
feet on leaving. Finally one night I'd had
enough. When he started to hit me I swung
back. That proved to be a huge
mistake. I got the worse beating of my
After that, I finally left. But to
this day I'm reminded of that year every time I feel the chipped bones in my
face, or panic when someone puts me in a friendly hold that terrifies me.
Back then, no one talked about domestic violence. It was something to hide and be ashamed
of. But maybe today is different. Maybe with all the press, people like me sharing stories,
and individuals paying attention, it saves a life, or two, or three.

LCD's have come a long way in the past 18 months; it wasn't that long ago the idea of an LCD for a monitor was ridiculous due to their high price tag. Thanks to the mass production of them, these days, prices have really dropped and they are now a lot more affordable for the average person. The Hercules Prophetview 920 DVI is a big improvement over its predecessor, the Prophetview 720, yet it still could do with a few more improvements - mainly an increase in contrast ratio, this will help get rid of some of the darkness we sometimes find in movies and games.
If you're in the market for an LCD, we would highly recommend that you don't skimp on the purchase of one; cheaper LCD's are usually only good for desktop use as their specs are usually quite low.
As we stated this particular model comes in two flavors: a DVI version priced at around $650 US (around $1,000 AU) and a non-DVI version priced at a more affordable $530 US (around $800 AU). If you look around you should be able to bargain a few dollars off the price but if you have been fortunate enough to own Hercules equipment in the past, you know the kind of quality used throughout their products and you know you will get what you pay for.
Overall we have a very nice LCD which flaws are only very small and we find no reason not to give it our editor's choice award!
- Pros
Best looking LCD on the market
RCA port is very handy
Available with and without DVI
Very high quality
Can be wall mounted
Perfect for an office situation
- Cons
Slightly more expensive then the competition
Bit too dark in some places
Rating - 9/10 and TweakTown's Editors Choice Award

Hi All...thought to share a cool trellis method. I have several Clematis around my light posts that have done poorly...the plant comes back every year but does not grow well. I have tried 'helping' it by tying it to the post but it goes no where. After a little research I found that Clematis needs a thin style trellis for its tendrils to grab onto. If it does not have this - it will not grow. So true, so true! So...I toyed with digging them up and making a special trellis but really did not want to transplant and perhaps lose them. I happened to have some wire fencing left from the vegetable garden and decided to use it up and around my lamp posts to trellis the Clematis. It is thin enough to wrap right around the post, tall enough (5 feet) to extend the whole height of the post. It is working beautifully - the plants are climbing so well - bigger than they have eve been in the last 5 years I have had them. Here is a picture - I suspect it will grow right up the post. Lots of buds - can't wait to see it fully bloomed! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Thanks, and great idea! I had recently read about that too, where a stem that can't seem to grab on to something will eventually die. I personally saw it on 2 plants just recently (one of them being one of my clematis stems that could have been another nice growth going upwards but has now since withered away) so I was glad to have read about that, and then see the detrimental effects. I will definitely be providing enough vertical support for all clematis stems that want to be growing up since I have enough impatience waiting for the plant to fill up the existing trellises that they are on without having some prematurely killed off. |
- Posted by opheliathornvt 5 (My Page) on Fri, Apr 18, 14 at 10:06
Yup - I've done something similar around posts that are too thick. It works really well. |
IME clematis can be grown as ground cover plants unless there are pests such as slugs, voles, or other nibbling critters damaging the plants, but in general I prefer the look of them growing up a trellis. Gardenper, wilt does effect some type 2 clematis regardless of whether they are growing on trellises or on the ground, but the plants generally out-grow wilt. LKZZ, your clematis looks quite happy on its new trellis! I have also seen folks use a set of strings or a flexible net with large holes in similar situations, but I think the wire fencing makes a much more manageable and attractive trellis. |
- Posted by buyorsell888 Zone 8 Portland OR (My Page) on Sat, May 3, 14 at 13:33
After years of struggling with various fencing/supports I agree that wire grid fencing just like you used is the best support for Clematis. Now, if I can just get my husband to help me rip out all the other supports and replace with wire grid fencing.....so far he has been very resistant. |

Spartacus Books blames gentrification for closure of Downtown Eastside store
One of Vancouver's beloved independent bookstores is on the move.
On May 31, Spartacus Books will close its store at 684 East Hastings Street in the Downtown Eastside.
According to Spartacus Books' Facebook page, the nonprofit, volunteer-run bookstore plans to set up a new shop in the area of Commercial Drive and East 18th Avenue.
Spartacus Books posted this week that it's been "renovicted":
We have called the DTES home for over 40 years. This is very sad news for our whole collective and the many folks who use our space. Gentrification effects us all and those least responsible are effected the most.
Follow our page to get updates about our situation. We will have statements, volunteer callouts and requests for support over the coming weeks. Please support your local radical book store and community space through this difficult transition.
Established in 1973, Spartacus Books previously shut down for 18 months in 2004 and 2005 due to a fire.
It stocks books, magazines, graphic novels, and academic journals on subjects as varied as anarchy, art, ecology, feminism, poetry, and queer studies.
According to its website, Spartacus Books is the "go-to resource for anti-capitalist, political books not found in big-box bookstores".

We are committed to maintaining the integrity and legacy of American Kenpo as developed by Senior Grandmaster Ed Parker under the counsel and direction of Sigung Stephen LaBounty and Ed Parker Jr. We encourage each student to travel the path of self-discovery as he or she internalizes the principles of Kenpo.
I've had the good fortune to become a mentor and friend to the members of this wonderful organization. When I first was introduced to the workings of this group, I half expected it to be much the same as many other organizations in inception and application. Almost all associations struggle from their very beginnings to create and maintain their "Mission Statement" and soon fall by the wayside for lack of follow through and interest to a changing martial community.
But not so with the AIK. No, this group is truly a group of men and women who wish to not only learn an art of self-defense, but to excel in it and meet the rank of Black Belt in their journey. The Association Board and Master Council is dedicated to the same principle which is to help AIK members along the way by giving them a complete, strong and inviting way for students to realize these goals, and they've had many years to develop the curriculum to do so.
In March of 2012, I will celebrate my 50th adult year in Ed Parker's American Kenpo Karate. I am very selective of who and what I give my testimonial to, and I do not take such a document lightly. So then, I say that I do give my support, teaching and guidance to the American Institute of Kenpo and am happy to do so.
May all of us grow and expand our knowledge of health, strength and safety through this most dedicated group.
Stephen LaBounty
9th Degree Black Belt
Student of Ed Parker's American Kenpo Karate & the Martial Arts
July 21, 2011
At the Amercian Institute of Kenpo, you will learn some of the rich history of the martial arts as well as the modern application of American Kenpo Karate. We live in a remarkable time where the martial arts are no longer taught and practiced in secrecy by only being taught to select family clans or those of noble birthright. We each have the privilege and honor to study and practice our martial art openly and without persecution.
There are countless stories in which the masters of old would require students to prove themselves before they were given access to the highly valued martial arts techniques. The potential students would arrive before dawn and wait all day for an interview with the master - hoping to prove themselves worthy students. At dusk, a messenger was sent out to inform the prospective students that the master would not see them today; they would be invited to return the following day. This process continued until there was only one prospective student remaining; only then would the student be accepted into the academy. It is with this tradition in mind that the American Institute of Kenpo declares that Black Belt is only the beginning.
The only other means of access was to receive a personal invitation from an existing student who could attest to the character and discipline of the prospective student. And so it is with the American Institute of Kenpo. We ask each of our students during the month of testing to give an invitation to likeminded individuals and afford them the opportunity to experience American Kenpo.
The highest honor and greatest respect that you can show your instructor is to compliment and refer this school to others.
We commend you for the courage you showed by taking the first step in your training and look forward to the day when you stand beside us… An AIK Black Belt!

Re: Everything is Gold
The direct application of the golden ratio is to the overall composition. The spiral is the absolute opposite of randomly placed, here. It highlights the aesthetics of the ratio. Which perhaps we find beautiful because of how it evokes the proportions and shapes of nature. To me this is as on-topic as it gets, and beautiful too.

So rather than try and get the shirts we want to win, we should steal the art and just make them ourselves?

The many styles of Mortal Kombat X
It does actually look really good. Consider that they recreated all the character models and animations, made 3 new move sets for each of them, and will include an extensive story quest with voice acting and everything. It's a lot more work than most developers put into fighting game sequels. Compare to Tekken 7, which I know I will love, but from off-screen videos floating around on the web you can see that they are still using some 10-year-old assets from Tekken 5 - those same costumes and victory poses and moves. Ever since T5 they keep modding the previous game rather than taking a ground-up approach that you see here in MK X. Netherealm deserve all the sales they get. Reply +3

Gameboy came out when I was 3. I still remember being blown away by it. Yes at first I tried turning it on without a cartridge plugged in. Once I was shown how I was addicted to Tetris.

Nintendo launches its first Cross-Buy game with Squids Odyssey
Seems a strange oversight to only be cross buy if you buy the 3DS version, but not if you start with the Wii U version. Well it sounds like in the future Nintendo will do more of this as they stated they are thinking about the next gen hardware after this one having a common dev environment and universal code between handheld and console so games are made for both.

Nintendo slumps to another annual loss after dismal Wii U sales
Maybe Wii U just wasn't the right hardware idea... people don't seem excited about a massive chunky controller with a screen on it.

Soul Calibur: Lost Swords review
Yeah this game is shite but not all Free 2 Play games are bad guys. There are plenty that I really like and don't require me to spend anything to get enjoyment out of them... PvZ 2, PSO 2, Tekken Revolution, various Sims games... sometimes you really do get something good for nothing, I appreciate the business model being there as an option; paid up front games aren't going anywhere.

Nintendo denies reports of new hardware at E3 2014

Meet the man who salvaged Final Fantasy 14 from ruin
@Sunjammer Yeah XII is excellent. I can only hope for an HD re-release.
I think it's just that each major release has a completely different team. They always divide up key players between different projects that are going on in parallel.
But I think some major people involved with XII are no longer with the company at all so we may never see another FF game in that particular style.
As for XIV, I am a very active player and can't wait for the first expansion. Reply +2 -

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 review
@FortysixterUK I tend to listen to the harsher reviews more. They wouldn't say something is bad for no reason. It's good to have high standards because there are so many games out there and games are not cheap, if they were too soft with grading then people would waste money on duff games. Polygon likewise gave this 5 and Edge gave it 4 so that tells you this is a very flawed game. Reply 0

Why John Carmack quit id Software
That's really sad and I think 'id' has lost a lot of its lustre with the absence of Carmack. Doom, Quake and Wolfenstein aren't really hot properties any more, so there's not a lot left going for 'id' unless they can really knock one out of the park with Doom 4. The game has already been in development for several years and has been scrapped and restarted once due to poor quality; it's hard to imagine it making a big impact in the current hotly contested shooter market.

Ouya gets a new black model with double the storage
I wasted money on one at launch. It was an exciting idea but the execution was horrible. Nobody puts the effort into making amazing games for it. The UI is bad and the controller is bad. Turns out it doesn't solve any problems. If you want a superior low-cost alternative just find some free games on the web, on Steam or your phone. Julie made a big deal about opening up the TV, but really you can already find a superior catalogue of indie games on the proper consoles. Reply +2

Mario Kart 8 now pegged for a May release
They can make the Wii U cheaper by making it a top-loader, preferably a slide-top like the new PS3, and dramatically reducing the size of the gamepad so it looks more like a controller to people than a chunky tablet, even if the screen size has to be cut down. Hitting the lowest price possible will really separate it from PS4/XBO. Need an essentials range for titles that have been out a while to drop to half price /�20. Also can we have the console in different colours yet? Blue, red, pink... Reply +3

The Elder Scrolls Online release dates announced
I think people are being a bit hasty by condemning this game as a cash in. To my knowledge it has been in development a long while and looks very nice. Don't know for sure until we see reviews, but there's a chance this game will be just as good as the ones Bethesda make. FF XIV has changed my opinion about subscription games - if they add enough content at regular intervals you actually get more for your money than you would buying a new full-priced game every few months. The subscription pays for a game which is constantly expanded and refreshed. Reply -1

Devs saddened by "empty and dishonest" Ouya response to Free the Games Fund controversy
I admit to wishing I had the money back now that I spent on an Ouya at retail launch. I just didn't get enough entertainment value back from it. The launch line-up was abysmal and it's only gradually getting better, but it's trying to gain ground at the worst possible time on the biggest ever year in videogames history with launches such as GTA V, Pokemon XY, PS4 and Xbox One still to come, there just isn't the time or money to support anything which is less than great when there is so much great to go around.

Anyone interested in obtaining a GED may choose from three convenient options: the traditional classroom setting, online classes, and GED Express. GED Express allows busy individuals the chance to fit classes into their schedule in just an evening and a Saturday. After completing the two express classes, students are then ready to take the official GED tests.
