"The multicolor blue card had all the colors of my twin sons school colors. Great graduation card for a male graduate. The paper quality and print quality are very nice. The card turned out great."
"This was my first order with tinyprints and wasn't certain what to expect. The paper and print quality were exceptional - there was no bleeding on the picture at all. We chose it not only for it's design, but it provided us the ability to add a large picture, suitable for framing, and allowed us to save on having to print larger pictures. I had picked out five designs, and of those, my son picked this one - he was very happy with it once it arrived. We thought it is both very distinguished for a guy, and a beautiful keepsake to have."
"I really thought these came out elegant and classy for my husband's college graduation and Army ceremony that followed. I was able to fit two events on this one invitation!"
"Love this card that you can change the sizes of fonts and add to or remove as much as you need to. Also having designer make changes was helpful."
"Thank you so much for these beautiful graduation cards! I really appreciate the personal and professional service from your staff."

Bias-Correction in Vector Autoregressive Models: A Simulation Study

Abstract: We analyze the properties of various methods for bias-correcting parameter estimates in both stationary and non-stationary vector autoregressive models. First, we show that two analytical bias formulas from the existing literature are in fact identical. Next, based on a detailed simulation study, we show that when the model is stationary this simple bias formula compares very favorably to bootstrap bias-correction, both in terms of bias and mean squared error. In non-stationary models, the analytical bias formula performs noticeably worse than bootstrapping. Both methods yield a notable improvement over ordinary least squares. We pay special attention to the risk of pushing an otherwise stationary model into the non-stationary region of the parameter space when correcting for bias. Finally, we consider a recently proposed reduced-bias weighted least squares estimator, and we find that it compares very favorably in non-stationary models.

tom_christmas Well located, staff were very helpful and friendly throughout. Well priced bar on site, only drawbacks were the hygiene of other guests (which isn't the hostels fault) and the fact that loud music from the bar prevents sleep pre midnight.
KyleMac The best (and cheapest) hostel I have stayed in Queensland. Smack in the middle of Cairns city and literally only a 3 minute walk to the nightclub strip & casino. Rooms and facilities are basic, but for a backpacker they are perfect and the price reflects. Our room was cleaned daily. Angelo at the reception was great and gave better prices than other tour operators around town. People were actually coming to his reception in the hostel to book tours and activities that weren't even staying here, which we found pretty funny (not to mention rare). Free meal every night at a local bar - good food & beer. Overall the stay here was heaps of fun & had some hilarious chats about our common friend 'Starcraft' with Angelo. Definitely the best hostel receptionist I have met, and deserves this review.

Had to triple confirm check-out as the first two times seemed like they didn't care. Third person actually called up the office to confirm. Beds we very squeaky and tight and not the cleanliness. We also had a lots of problems with our keys. However facilities available were good and it was a nice way to meet people

Unique | Days | Time | Location | Instructor |

Course Description
In this class we will explore the major social movements and the political, cultural and intellectual developments of the 1960s, as well as their origins in the 1950s and earlier. These include post-war liberalism; the Great Society and the War on Poverty; the New Left; the Free Speech Movement; the peace movement; the Civil Rights movement; nationalist and liberation movements among African Americans, Chicanos, Asian Americans, American Indians, gays and lesbians, and women; the youth movement and counterculture; the conservative movement; and the environmental movement. Throughout, we shall seek to learn not only what happened, but also why it happened; moreover, as members of a university community, we will be attentive to the question of how political and social activity in the 1960s, activity inspired largely by young people in and around universities, has affected our lives today and our relationship to politics and civic life. In the 1960s spirit of participatory democracy this class will be run as something of a cooperative enterprise. Rather than working on the model of expert teacher and student receptacles-of-knowledge, as students you will be actively contributing to the course content through your own research and presentations to the class. In other words, your active participation is essential to the success of the course. If you were hoping for a more passive learning experience, you should look elsewhere.

Fall 2012
Raf Simons
January 21, 2012
The Vibe for Fall 2012
Who wore the pants this season? Nobody at Raf. They wore shorts. Yes, shorts in the Fall, trouser shorts that is. Didn't matter if a double-breasted suit, a trim cerulean pea coat, or a nubby chartreuse sweater was up top. It was less British school boy and more 80s cool kid thanks to slouchier tailoring; shots of deep color; and eyes obstructed by bucket hats and slicked-forward hair straight from the New Wave era. Sure, the whole bare-ankle thing wasn't practical, but it made one hell of an impression.

Werth is still aiming to be ready by opening day, but added he will be cautious in his recovery.
"You got to err on the side of caution," Werth said. "You come back too early and then you have a setback or something like that so it's a fine line. But our trainers and doctors are on top of it. I feel like I have a good sense of where I'm at and where I want to be so it's just a time thing. It's good to get down here and have our guys, so to speak, looking at it and caring for it. And it's just good to be back around everybody."
Werth was pulled over in July by Virginia State Police after driving 105 mph in a 55 mph zone and Werth did not necessarily disagree with the assessment.
"It's possible I exceeded 90 miles per hour," Werth said in court.
Werth was initially convicted of reckless driving Dec. 5, but appealed the verdict. He was originally sentenced to 10 days in jail, but it was reduced to five after Werth's guilty plea.
The prosecutor said Werth will turn himself in Friday and begin serving his sentence, according to NBC4's Northern Virginia Bureau.
While Werth is expected to undergo 2-3 months of rehab, which puts his status for opening day in jeopardy, he remains hopeful of a quick recovery because his operation was minimally-invasive and with no complications.
"I don't want to do anything to jeopardize the rest of my career but also want to get on the field an play," he said. "It's a balance. … As soon as I'm ready, I'll be back. … My goal is opening day. If I can't make opening day in D.C., then I want to make opening day in Boston. I'm going to try to be back as soon as I can without doing something stupid."
Werth had arthroscopic surgery on his right AC joint. Doctors did not find any "structural abnormalities" in his shoulder during the procedure. He's expected to miss 2-3 months while rehabbing the injury.
The 35-year-old hit .292/.394/.455 over 534 at-bats last year.
Werth is expected to rehab for two to three months, which puts his availability for the start of the season in jeopardy.
The Washington Post confirmed Werth will have AC joint repair surgery Friday. Rest was recommended when Werth first injured his shoulder last August, but the issue emerged during offseason workouts.
In 2014, Werth hit .292 with 16 home runs and 82 RBI.
In December, the 35-year-old Werth was found guilty of misdemeanor reckless driving for a July 6 incident. He was accused of going 105 miles per hour in a 55 mph zone. Judge Penney Azcarate sentenced him to 10 days in jail. Werth appealed the ruling.
Bryce Harper is expected to take over in right field, while Jayson Werth moves to left. The move should allow the club to get better use of Harper's arm. Harper is also expected to take on a bigger role in the lineup. He will likely hit somewhere between the second and fourth spot in the lineup, according to manager Matt Williams. Last season, Harper was mostly used as the team's sixth hitter.
Werth tripled in two runs in the first, doubled in the second, singled in the fifth and was hit by a pitch in the sixth. He finished 3 for 4 with two runs scored and an RBI in a 15-7 defeat. He is hitting .291/.394/.455 with 16 homers and 82 RBI over 530 at-bats.
Werth was given Friday off while recovering from the flu. He has hit .283/.383/.448 with 16 home runs, 78 RBI and nine stolen bases in 498 at-bats.
Werth is in a 2-for-15 mini-slump, but he owns a strong .283/.383/.448 stat line on the season with 77 runs scored and 78 RBI.
Werth put his team up early with his first-inning home run and showed off his wheels later in the game, stealing second base after each of his walks. He has hit .288/.383/.458 with 16 home runs, 76 RBI and nine stolen bases in 465 at-bats.
Werth, who has been bothered by a shoulder injury, hit a solo home run to left in the fourth inning, with the Nationals already trailing. He ultimately finished the game 2 for 4 with one run scored and one RBI.
Friday's home run was Werth's first since July 13, before the All-Star break. Still, he is hitting .311/.409/.444 overall since the break.
Here's what The Washington Post recently reported: The injury has compelled him to shorten his swing in a manner not unlike that of 2012, when he returned from a broken wrist.
The problem with that? He hit only five home runs in 300 at-bats in 2012.
That's partially what made last year's performance so shocking. He appeared to have regressed the year before. Turns out he just made a change to his swing -- the same one he says he's made now.
Granted, he's 2 for 5 with a double since returning, so no need to sound the alarm, but if you own Werth in Fantasy, you're not out of the woods yet.
However, Werth did enter Sunday's game against the Pirates in the ninth inning and finished out the 11-inning contest, going 1 for 1 with one double, one walk and two runs.
Werth said he made a similar change when he returned from a broken wrist in 2012, according to The Washington Post.
"I think it really helped," he said. "[I did it] just to take pressure off the shoulder, the AC joint. I've never had this before so I'm kind of just tinkering around, trying to figure out something that's going to work. But I think we're close. I've been getting every indication that chances are I'm not going to injure it, unless I do something stupid out there. I felt it was worth the risk [Sunday]. In a game like that, I wanted to keep the streak going and win a game. So I went for it."
Werth hit off a tee Friday, and will progress toward a full pregame workout Saturday before he is cleared to return Sunday. He has been out since last Sunday as a result of the injury, which required a cortisone shot Wednesday.
Werth has been sidelined since Sunday with a shoulder issue.
"He'll let it get to work a little bit," manager Matt Williams said Wednesday. "He should be good to go. It's one of things, it's kind of just a painful thing. There's no structural damage. No issues with anything else, according to the picture. It'll just calm it down and get the inflammation out of there. But during the process, he can't play. We've got to shut him down for a couple days at least."
Werth received an MRI Tuesday that showed he had no structural damage in his labrum rotator cuff, but he's had trouble playing through the pain in the AC joint. He has hit .279/.370/.430 with 12 home runs, 63 RBI and five stolen bases in 416 at-bats.
Werth has not started a game since Friday. He had been scheduled for an MRI on Wednesday and had not been expected to require a disabled list stint.
Manager Matt Williams said that he doesn't expect Werth to need a trip to the disabled list, but the results of an MRI will determine whether that's the case. He dealt with shoulder and ankle issues this weekend before returning to the lineup to go 0 for 1 with three walks, but he's back out of the lineup Tuesday.
Werth, who also missed the Friday game, has been dealing with shoulder and ankle problems.
He is expected to return to action Saturday.
Werth has just slid by for his streak with one hit in five of those games. He is 7 for 23 during that period.
Werth missed Tuesday's game due to an ankle injury, suffering during Monday's game. He is in his usual spot in the lineup, batting third and playing right field.
Werth is dealing with an ankle injury, but it's not considered serious. He has hit .284/.376/.445 with 12 home runs and 58 RBI in 380 at-bats.
Werth is batting .360 with a .478 on-base percentage, .747 slugging percentage and 1.225 OPS in 21 July games. He also has six home runs, 11 doubles, 17 runs, 23 RBI and 14 walks this month.
Werth left Monday's game with a twisted ankle, but manager Matt Williams expects him to be fine tomorrow. Werth was 2 for 3, with one run scored and one RBI prior to leaving the game.
In the seventh inning, Werth hit a single off Sam Dyson. He attempted to stretch it to a double, and was thrown out at second. Werth slid into the base awkwardly, and limped off the field. He was replaced by Nate McLouth the next inning. It's unclear how much time Werth will miss due to the injury.
Werth got two days off with the offday Thursday, which allowed him to get past the soreness that was bothering him earlier in the week. He is hitting .377/.472/.852 in 16 July games.
Werth is having a big month at the plate in July, batting .377 with a .472 on-base percentage, .852 slugging percentage and 1.325 OPS in 16 games. He also has six home runs, 11 doubles, 16 runs and 20 RBI.
Werth is having a strong month, as he has eight multi-hit games in 14 starts. He is batting .385 (20 for 52) with six home runs, nine doubles, 16 runs and 20 RBI in July.
We didn't see that version of Werth over the first three months of this season, which of course had everyone assuming regression again, but since the start of July -- a span of only 11 games -- he's batting .375 (15 for 40) with six home runs, or half of his season total.
And wouldn't you know a mechanical change is at the root of it all?
I made reference to it in a review of my rankings on the Fantasy Baseball Today blog, but according to The Washington Post, Werth's hot streak began about the time he decided to stand taller in the batter's box. It sounds like a small change to me, but if his mechanics are that persnickety -- and we have evidence that they are -- maybe it propels him another MVP-caliber finish.
Werth only had one hit during the game, but made it count. Werth led off the top of the sixth inning against Wei-Yin Chen. Werth worked a three-pitch at-bat, homering on a 77 mph curveball. Werth finished 1 for 5, with one run scored and one RBI.
Werth reached base three times in the win, the third time he has done so in his last five games. He went 2 for 3 with a walk, and both of his hits went for extra bases. Werth drove in one run in the first inning with a double, and added a solo home run in the seventh, finishing with two runs and two RBI.
Werth has raised his batting average nearly 15 points over the last seven games, and is now hitting .279/.364/.421 in 330 at-bats overall.
Werth homered in the first inning to forge a short-lived tie and added a double and walk. He has six hits in his last three games to sweeten his stat line to .276/.361/.406.
Werth will be replaced by Nate McLouth in right field. It's assumed to be a normal day off, and Werth should return to the lineup for Game 2. Werth is hitting .268/.349/.376 over 298 at-bats.
Nate McLouth is set to start instead for Werth, who has just five hits in his last 38 at-bats and has been hitless in six of his last nine games.
Werth is batting .216 in June and is mired in a 4-for-37 slump in his last 10 games, while Desmond is batting .233 in June and is mired in a 6-for-34 slump.
"It's a long road trip, a very tough couple of games against the Astros and all the expectations of this series [against the Braves]. Guys get mentally tired. So to answer your question, [Desmond] needs a day," Williams said. "We need to look long and hard about Jayson. We'll spend a couple of hours on the plane talking about that one."
Werth knocked a solo home run in the fourth inning to put his team up 4-1 then singled in the ninth inning with the bases loaded to add two more RBI. He has hit .296/.371/.420 with six home runs, 31 RBI and three stolen bases in 243 at-bats.
Manager Matt Williams did told MLB.com Werth was feeling a little stiff earlier in the day, and wanted to get the Werth his first day off during a long road trip.
"We thought today would be a good day for him," Williams said "We are not going to get another off day until we get home."
Werth is hitting .285/.365/.398 in 221 at-bats this season.
Werth struck out in his first at-bat against Colby Lewis, but was able to adjust. He singled and scored a run his second time up, and added two more singles in his final two at-bats. Werth finished the contest 3 for 5, with two runs scored and one RBI.
Through 203 at-bats, Werth is hitting .291/.374/.404.
In his first season with the Nationals, Werth had a tough time against lefties, hitting just .184 against them. It led to a down season, as Werth hit just .232 in 561 at-bats. Since that year, Werth has hit .383 against lefties, which ranks second just behind Andrew McCutchen. Werth admitted that he worked on the problem back in 2010, but decided not to give any details on how he was able to turn himself around against left-handers.
While he's only 35 at-bats against lefties this year, Werth is hitting an insane .457 against them.
Werth broke the seal for the Nationals, who opened the game with six scoreless innings as a team. He hit a solo home run in the seventh inning to tie the game, eventually finishing 1 for 3 with two runs scored, as he also walked.
Werth is now hitting .304/.391/.453 with five home runs in 148 at-bats.
Werth kicked off the scoring Tuesday with a first-inning home run, then managed to score the tying run in the eighth inning before the Nationals tacked on another run in the ninth. He owns a seven-game hitting streak while recording multiple hits in each of his last three games. Werth has hit .290/.388/.470 with four home runs and 15 RBI in 100 at-bats.
Werth's lone hit in four trips to the plate brought in three runs, as he took Marlins' starter Jose Fernandez deep to right. He has yet to hit a home run against a non-Miami team this season.
The bulk of Werth's production has come against the Marlins this season, with 10 of his 11 RBI and all three of his home runs coming against Miami. He is hitting .308/.410/.538 overall.
Werth is off to a great start, hitting safely in 10 of 11 games. He is batting .368 with a .579 slugging percentage, 1.046 OPS, two doubles, two home runs, eight RBI and nine runs.
Werth can only hope the problem does not curtail his momentum. He has been on a tear since opening day with hits in all but one game and a stat line of .351/.455/.568. He has eight RBI and nine runs scored.
Calling the injury "a little groin tweak," manager Matt Williams said, "We decided it was best to get him out of there and re-evaluate [Saturday]."
Werth was 1 for 5 in the game before being removed. He has hit .351/.455/.568 with two home runs and eight RBI in 37 at-bats.
Werth was hitless in four trips to the plate entering the bottom of the eighth inning, before he took Carlos Marmol deep for a game-winning grand slam. He added an RBI groundout in the fifth inning, as he drove in five of his six runs for the season in one game.
Werth is hitting 345/.457/.517 on the season, but had just one RBI entering play Wednesday. He now has six, along with six runs scored in eight games.
Werth followed up a 1-for-5 opener with a big performance in Wednesday's win. Despite posting an impressive .318/.398/.523 line last season, Werth didn't have more than three hits in a game in all of 2013. It's hard to believe he could be even better in 2014, but his four-hit game is a good sign.
He's dealing with a minor muscle strain, but is feeling a lot better. He was able to debut Wedneday despite the injury. Werth hit .318/.398/.532 in 462 at-bats last season.
Werth has battled a biceps injury this spring, delaying his debut in Grapefruit League action. He coming off a career-best season in which he hit .318/.398/.532 with 25 home runs, 82 RBI and 10 stolen bases in 462 at-bats.
Werth has been dealing with a biceps injury during the spring. He's coming off a season in which he hit .318/.398/.532 in 462 at-bats.
Harper is battling flu-like symptoms, and should be good to go in a day or two. Werth is dealing with a strained right biceps.
"Bryce wanted to come on the trip," manager Matt Williams said. "I told him to stay back and take it easy. I plan to bring him [to Lake Buena Vista] tomorrow. Jayson is going through his progressions. When we get back, we'll see where he's at."
Harper and Werth comprise two-thirds of the team's projected starting outfield.
Williams did not want to rush Werth back into heavy action as he continues to make a full recovery from wrist surgery.
It's a nice change from a year ago, when Werth's status was uncertain as he was building up strength in his surgically repaired wrist.
"It's good," Werth said of his wrist. "I don't have any issues now and I don't foresee any problems. And I'm kinda hoping we're past it."
Werth isn't believed to be injured, as most of the team's regulars were not in the lineup Sunday. If he does not play, Werth will finish the season with a .318/.398/.532 line, 25 home runs, 82 RBI and 10 stolen bases in 462 at-bats.
"I didn't feel like I was really driving the ball like I was capable of," Werth said. "I put [my hands] where they were my whole life. I really went back to my natural stance. I can show you video when I was 14, and that was my set-up."
Werth has remained hot even in September, batting .304 (24 for 79) with two homers, three steals and a .917 OPS in 21 games.
Werth finished 3 for 4 with two runs scored and two RBI. Werth now has four straight multi-hit games. He owns a .385/.429/.718 line in September to go with a .328/.401/.548 line overall.
Werth hit a three-run shot off pitcher Carlos Torres in the third inning. He finished the game 2 for 5, with two runs scored and three RBI. Werth is hitting .324/.398/.534 in 401 at-bats.
It was the fourth home run Werth has hit in his last seven games. If he can become qualified for the batting title, he'll certainly be in the mix to win it, as he has hit .329/.406/.540 with 21 home runs, 63 RBI and seven stolen bases. The current NL leader in batting average, Yadier Molina, is hitting .333.
Werth has posted strong numbers all season, hitting .324/.403/.530 with 20 home runs, 60 RBI and seven stolen bases in 355 at-bats.
Werth reportedly sustained the infection earlier in the week while the team was in Chicago playing the Cubs, and it has worsened rather than improved. He went 2 for 13 with one home run in the four-game series against the Cubs before going 1 for 5 with another home run in the series opener against the Royals Friday.
Werth has hit .326/.404/.529 with 19 home runs, 58 RBI and seven stolen bases in 344 at-bats.
Since the All-Star break, Werth has starting holding his hands higher. Werth explained that he looked at old tape, and realized he had been holding his hands higher during his stance, which allowed him to hit for more power. He's also standing taller in the box.
Werth is hitting .330/.408/.530 in 336 at-bats.
Werth went 1 for 3 with a three-run home run in the third inning to give the Nationals an early lead. He added a pair of walks as well, finishing with two runs scored to go with his three RBI.
Werth now has three home runs and 13 RBI in the month of August, while walking as many times (12) as he has struck out. He is hitting .452 in the month to raise his average for the season to .330.
Werth has hit safely in nine straight games and has collected 10 multi-hit games in August. He is batting .521 (25 for 48) with a .596 on-base percentage, .729 slugging percentage, 1.326 OPS, two home runs, four doubles, nine RBI, 14 runs, eight walks and three stolen bases in 14 August games.
Since July 1, Werth is batting .420 with a .500 on-base percentage, .659 slugging percentage and 1.159 OPS in 41 games.
Gonzalez and Werth were reportedly angry about two different issues, though both players decided to keep the issue private. Despite the angry words, Gonzalez settled down on the mound, and tossed four scoreless innings.
"Just kinda got caught underneath me on that slide home," Werth said, per The Washington Times. "Kind of stiffened up a little bit. Doctors looked at it. I didn't think it was a big deal. But should be OK. Day off (Monday). I'm sure we'll know waking up in the morning. But I don't think it's a big deal."
After winning NL player of the month honors in July, Werth is off to a stellar start in August. Werth is batting .542 (13 for 24) with one double, two home runs, five RBI, five walks and eight runs in eight August games.
He went 2 for 3 with a two-run home run, in a 6-3 loss to the Braves. Werth added a pair of runs scored, and he snapped a 12-game homeless drought. He is now hitting .563 in six August games, and he has six home runs in 19 games since the All-Star break.
On a brighter note, Werth was named NL player of the month for July Monday. Werth hit .367 with seven home runs and 22 RBI in 27 July games.
Werth is batting .432 with a .693 slugging percentage and 1.198 OPS in his last 27 games. He has seven home runs and 17 RBI in that span.
Werth, who went 2 for 3 and scored a run in Saturday's 3-0 win, has hit .313/.382/.509 with 15 home runs and 43 RBI in 281 at-bats.
Werth has performed well since the All-Star break, hitting .370/.455/.717 with five home runs and 10 RBI in 46 at-bats over 14 games.
Werth has hit .375/.402/.636 during July. He may have made an adjustment to his stance, according to The Washington Post. Werth is standing more upright at the plate, which has helped create backspin on the ball.
In 273 at-bats, Werth is hitting .305/.373/.502.
Werth is having a great run in July. He is batting .376 (32 for 85) with two doubles, seven home runs, 13 walks, 17 runs and 21 RBI in 25 games.
"He's made some adjustments, he's made some changes with his stance and I think his approach has been pretty good all year," Johnson said. "I think the main thing with him is he feels like his left wrist is healthy. He's been impressive. His approach in BP. So, I mean, he's in a good spot."
Werth homered twice, also having a two-run shot in the seventh off starter Charlie Morton. Werth went 2 for 4 with four RBI and is batting .300 for the Nationals.
The 34-year-old has gone 4 for 7 in his last two games with four runs scored, four homers and six RBI.
Werth went 2 for 3 with a walk, while adding a home run, his second in as many days. Werth added a single as well in the game, finishing the game with one run scored and one driven in. He has reached base at least twice in all but one of his last seven games, while hitting safely in each.
It's just a little food for thought as Fantasy owners contemplate adding Werth (owned in 76 percent of leagues) and consider putting him back into active lineups (started 63 percent).
The fact of the matter has been -- Werth has produced for Fantasy owners when he's been in the lineup this season.
Werth also walked, scored twice, stole a base and drove in a run. He was 0 for his last 7 coming into the game, but he has three multi-hit games in his last five.
Werth hit .347 (17 for 49) with three home runs, four doubles, seven RBI, 10 runs and seven walks in his final 14 games in June.
Werth went 2 for 2 with two walks, as well as a double and a run scored, but manager Davey Johnson told MASNSports.com Werth is not yet felly healthy.
"I don't think he was 100 percent," Johnson said. "I think he catches that ball in the ninth if he is not a little ginger. He will be all right. I just go by what he tells me. He said he has had it before and he could play through it. So that is good enough for me."
Werth left Sunday's game with a groin injury, but was aiming to return Tuesday. Werth will hit third against Trevor Cahill. He's hitting .265/.320/.420 in 162 at-bats.
Werth missed Saturday's game with the flu, and said that he was still a little dehydrated Sunday, which likely led to the injury. Werth left Sunday after hitting his second single of the game. He received fluids after the game.
"I'll know more tomorrow, but I think I'll be all right," Werth said. "Groins are pretty straightforward. I've had a couple of them in the past, but I didn't miss any time, so I hope that'll be the case."
Werth is hitting .265/.320/.420 in 162 at-bats.
Werth said he doesn't think his injury is too severe, according to MASNsports.com. There is no MRI planned and Werth will see how he feels Monday.
Werth was back in the lineup Sunday after sitting out Saturday due to an illness. The Nationals are off Monday before returning to action Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.
"I think this game's 90 percent mental," Johnson told MLB.com. "Anything you do in life, if you have the right mental approach to it, it's easier. I like to see good mental approaches and good, positive attitudes. That's the root of success in any business. Really, in baseball, you can talk yourself into a good hitting streak."
Werth was 0 for 7 in the first two games of the Rockies series, with five strikeouts. His status for Sunday's game is not yet known.
Werth missed 28 games with a strained hamstring ealrier in the year, but that is not thought to be what is ailing him now.
Werth has gone 0 for 7 with five strikeouts the last two games. He's batting .250 since coming off the DL. Werth has missed 114 games due to injury since the beginning of 2012.
Since returning from a hamstring injury June 4, Werth is batting .268 (11 for 41) with two doubles, two home runs and five RBI in 10 games.
Maybe he deserves a little more patience considering he missed about a month earlier this year with a strained hamstring, but I don't like what I've seen so far. Not only is he batting just .226 (7 for 31) since returning to the lineup June 8, but he has only nine walks all season. And that's in 131 at-bats.
His current walk rate of 6.4 percent would be by far the lowest of his career -- at least the part that anyone cares to remember -- and as a 34-year-old in his decline phase, he needs to walk to make a worthwhile contribution in Fantasy.
Obviously, it's a small sample, but he'll need to turn it around soon to justify a spot on my roster.
Werth hit a two-run homer in the game, his fifth of the season. He finished the game 1 for 5, as his average fell to .248.
Werth, who missed all but one game in the month of May due to a hamstring injury, was back in the lineup for the game, batting second and playing right field.
Werth is scheduled to play a full game Sunday for the first time in his rehab. He is 8 for 14 (.571) with a double over five rehab games.
Nationals manager Davey Johnson said before Wednesday's game that there's a chance Werth could be back with the major-league team Friday.
"Stay tuned to Jayson Werth," manager Davey Johnson said before Wednesday's game. "If he has a pretty good day today and maybe tomorrow, we may see him in Atlanta."
Werth has been out since May 2 with a hamstring injury.
Werth is reportedly nearing a rehab assignment as soon as Wednesday, but the team does not want to take any risks after his last rehab was cut short due to a setback. He remains on track to return to the majors in early June.
It is not yet clear whether Werth will require a rehab assignment, but it seems likely, considering he had his previous rehab cut short due to an aggravation of the injury.
"The doctor said it was two weeks," manager Davey Johnson said. "He told me that four days ago, so he's probably got close to two weeks."
The Nationals were hopeful Werth would have come off the disabled list this week, but his delay was because he visited with a specialist in New York.
"They worked the hamstring very well," Rizzo said. "They found out how they wanted to work it. In doing all that work on it, they flared it up. Hopefully, it'll make it better in the long run. But they flared it up so he didn't want to play the next day in the minor leagues. We're having him rest today, and he'll start ramping up baseball activities this week."
Werth is seeing a specialist in Chicago to determine what is wrong with the hamstring. He has been out since May 2 with the injury, and this is the second specialist he is seeing this weekend.
Werth saw a doctor Thursday after feeling tightness in his strained right hamstring, and is in New York visiting with the team's specialist, according to The Washington Times.
"He wanted to go see another doctor in New York," manager Davey Johnson said Thursday. "Reason being, he felt a slight, little bit of tightness in his hamstring. He just wanted to check something out."
The team has yet to say officially, but it looks like Werth's return to the active roster could be delayed a few days. Werth has been out since May 2 due to this injury.
Werth said his hamstring feels fine, but he "needed more action." There's a 40 percent chance of rain near game time, and the Nationals might not like their highly paid outfielder playing a rehab game in poor weather. The Potomac Nationals are located just a half hour from Nationals Park, so Werth could be getting his work in with the major-league club Thursday. He is aiming to return to the Nationals Saturday.
"Pretty good," Werth told the Post after the game. "Been a couple weeks since I've been out there but a step in the right direction."
Werth is hoping to get three at-bats Thursday.
Eury Perez was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse to take Werth's place on the roster.
Werth hasn't played since May 2. If the move is made, it can be backdated such that Werth could return by May 17. He is hitting .260/.308/.400.
Despite the positive diagnosis, Werth is not in the team's starting lineup Thursday. The team believes a stomach ailment may have caused Werth to become dehydrated, which caused the hamstring cramp. He's taking an antibiotic to combat the issue. Manager Davey Johnson said he hopes Werth can be back soon, and doesn't expect him to be placed on the disabled list.
Werth has been dealing with hamstring soreness, and hasn't played since May 2. Roger Bernadina will play left and hit second in place of Werth. Werth was scheduled to have an MRI on his injury Thursday, but no details of the scan have been revealed at this time.
Manager Davey Johnson held Werth out of the lineup Tuesday before the game was canceled because he said he didn't want to risk playing him on a wet field. It could have been the reason again Wednesday because the forecast called for possible rain, according to The Washington Times.
Johnson added he expects Werth to make it back into the lineup Wednesday.
"[Manager] Davey [Johnson] is just being cautious with the hamstring and that's fine with me," Werth said. "It's not injured. If it gets much worse, it could be a situation where I could be out for a significant amount of time. It's just tight, if we get to loosen up, it will be all right. There is no strain or significant injury in there. It just needs to loosen up. Whenever that happens, I'll be good to go."
Werth returned to the lineup Thursday but was removed with a tight hamstring.
Tyler Moore took his spot in the lineup and played right field.
Werth missed his previous two games due to the hamstring injury, but he tried to play through it and appeared to re-aggravate it.
Werth went 0 for 2 with a strikeout before being pulled. His status is not yet known, but he will likely be re-evaluated following the game.
"A bad bruise on the ankle is something that probably won't get much worse," manager Davey Johnson told Comcast Sportsnet. "It's probably hard to run, probably hard to land on. But a tight hamstring, you can pull it. You can be out for a couple weeks. And that's something I don't want to take a chance on."
Werth has hit .265/.314/.408 with four home runs in 105 plate appearances this season.
Werth is dealing with ankle and hamstring issues, and is considered day-to-day. Tyler Moore will get another start against the Braves in left field.
Werth said he's aiming to return to the lineup Wednesday. He said his left ankle is taped up, which is the bigger issue than his hamstring cramps, per MASNsports.com.
Werth has primarily been used as the team's second hitter, but the club is trying to shake things up. Werth has showed solid power this year, and may have been moved with the thought that he'll be able to drive in more runs hitting behind Bryce Harper. Stephen Lombardozzi will hit second.
Werth hadn't homered and had just one extra-base hit in 13 games after homering thrice in the season's first seven games. Werth is now hitting .259/.302/.432.
Werth has shown patience over his career, typically walking in 12 percent of his plate appearances. Werth is not concerned about his aggressive approach, saying "I'm aggressive when I feel good at the plate and when I'm not as aggressive I usually don't feel as good. It just depends."
The 34-year-old has gotten off to an encouraging start to the season after missing time with a broken wrist last year. Werth told the Washington Times he feels confident in his ability to work the count, and has not changed his approach. He added that it was important to drive up pitch counts early in the game so the team can take advantage of tired starters, or bullpen pitchers, later.
"He looks great. He has really worked hard on his positioning in the batter's box," hitting coach Rick Eckstein told MLB.com Sunday. "He feels like he is in position that he can drive the baseball. He's feeling good about what he is doing and where he is. He is continuing to grow in that process. It looks like his wrist is doing great."
With a 3-1 lead, Werth drove a 93 mph pitch from reliever Mike Dunn beyond the visiting bullpen in left to double the Nationals' output in the seventh inning. He finished 2 for 4 with two runs scored and two RBI in a 6-1 victory. The 33-year-old upped his average to .167 after three games.
Werth missed roughly half of the 2012 season with a broken wrist and finished with just five home runs. He is still working on regaining some of that power lost last season.
"It's yet to be seen, but I feel like I have the type of power I've had in the past," Werth told MLB.com.
Werth has returned to using his standard bat, which is an ounce-and-a-half heavier than the model he used at the end of last year after returning from his wrist injury. He uses an even heavier bat during batting practice.
"I think we're at the point where it's good," Werth said. "Now we got to see how it holds up over the course of the season. Got through spring training. It progressively got better. Here we are now at the start of the season, and it feels good. The next real test real will be as it progresses through the season, how it is and how much strength I can maintain."
"I'm sure he's going to be fine," manager Davey Johnson told MLB.com before the game. "It's probably just the cold weather stiffening it up." Werth is expected to start in right field on opening day.
Werth is hitting. 327/.368/.385 in 57 spring plate appearances.

Hello there,
I have a few questions: 1) Has anyone tested Mheeli's WiFi Mod with an AR.Drone 2.0 yet? 2) This new ruggedcircuits yellowjacket board (http://ruggedcircuits.com/html/yellowjacket.html) has 802.11 b/g/n capabilities. Has anyone tried this out yet? Is it still needed to telnet to the drone and change the config file in order to force the drone to connect to a at 2Mbit/s signal? 3) I wonder if the Mod can me modified to use the PPM output (sum-signal) of a RC receiver. Most copter projects use a RC receiver which is only connected via a single servo cable to the flight control board. This would make things even easier, smaller and lighter. e.g. I use a Jeti receiver like this on my other copters: 4) This tread is rather old. Is there a newer (and possibly) better mod? Is GPS return to home and stuff like this possible yet? Best regards Thomas |

Question about extending flight distance on Parrot AR
I'm new to quadrotors, so please forgive me if I sound like I don't know what I'm talking about, as I'm trying to learn.
I want to extend the flight distance of my Parrot AR, maybe up to 500 meters, and came across this:
and this: http://dronehacks.com/2011/08/21/ar-...-5-kilometers/ What equipment would I need to make this possible? Or at least to test if it would work? From reading elsewhere, it seems maybe a radio-control 2.4GHz receiver, a Yellowjacket for the WiFi, a Ubiquiti PowerAP N router for the distance, and a controller. Am I missing something, or confusing various methods of remote control? Any help appreciated. |

Why a BEC?
I'm in the process of building this mod and am awaiting the Yellow Jacket.
I've been reading all I can find about this and cannot see any discussions or suggestion as to why you must use a BEC? Unfortunately I ordered the YJ and then a couple of hours later saw the Serial/USB mod. Oh well, may be later.... I am thinking of powering the YJ via the RAW port directly from the AR Drone battery via a Y splice cable I'll make up. From http://ruggedcircuits.com/html/yello...t.html#PowerIn I can see that the RAW port can take 7V-24VDC. And from http://ruggedcircuits.com/html/yello....html#PowerOut I can source 5V for the AR6100e. Am I (as an RC and Arduino noob) missing something here or has no one realised you can power the Arduino/YJ directly? |

Video Game Brainwaves Used to Fight ADD
Researchers studying Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) are lauding the development of video games that reward focus and concentration by using electrodes to monitor players' brainwaves. Many clinicians are embracing the technology as a useful treatment tool for young patients suffering from ADD.

NOAH ADAMS, host:
It's DAY TO DAY. I'm Noah Adams. In a few minutes, one writer's story of her struggle with the highs and lows of mental illness. But first, if you really put your mind to it you can make it happen. That is increasingly true in the world of video games. There are new games in which the intensity of a player's concentration and focus can virtually lift a table or send a car racing faster. While these games may be fun, as NPR's Laura Sydell reports, they are also helping people with Attention Deficit Disorder.
LAURA SYDELL reporting:
Scientists have been studying human brainwaves since the 1920s. By putting electrodes into certain parts of the scalp it is possible to measure the electrical activity of the brain. The resulting signal can be measured on paper or by computer. Eight-year-old Julia Mather(ph) is playing a commercially available game called Splashdown on her Sony Playstation. Hooked up to the game console and to Julia is another technology made by a company called CyberLearning. Julia wears a cap with electrodes on it that measure brainwaves, which indicate how closely she's paying attention. She has attention deficit disorder, or ADD. Julia plays the game with a normal handheld controller, but when her mind wanders...
Ms. JILL MATHER (Julia's Mother): The first thing that happens is you lose your steering control, and then if you can't pull it together pretty fast, you lose your speed.
SYDELL: That's Jill Mather(ph), Julia's mother. She and her other two daughters also have ADD. For the last six months, the family has been working closely with a doctor who prescribed the CyberLearning technology. Mather says playing these games for 45 minutes several times a week has changed all of their lives.
Ms. MATHER: In six months, the kids are off their meds, I'm off my meds. This one is reading. I didn't think she'd be able to read. It was a horrible, horrible nightmare. And she's reading.
SYDELL: Not only is she reading, but she and her sisters are having a good time treating their ADD.
Ms. MATHER: It's sit down and we're going to do our neurofeedback. And it's not painful.
SYDELL: The CyberLearning technology costs just under $600, but it's thousands of dollars more to work with a clinician who monitors the exercises. The computer interface, used by CyberLearning, was originally developed by NASA to measure the astronauts' concentration. Dr. Alan Pope, a research scientist at NASA knew that similar technology known as neurofeedback have been useful to individuals with ADD. He wondered if neurofeedback technology would be more effective if it was hooked up to games. A study proved him right.
Dr. ALAN POPE (Research Scientist, NASA): We also noticed that there were dropouts in the group that had to put in 40 sessions of training with simple graphic displays and no dropouts in the video game treatment group.
SYDELL: Playing games using brainwaves is so much fun that now other companies are looking to market similar technology for entertainment.
Mr. STANLEY YANG (CEO, NeuroSky): Wipe everything away from your mind, relax, and take a deep breath.
SYDELL: That's Stanley Yang, CEO of NeuroSky, a Silicon Valley startup that's developed its own brainwave reading technology for playing video games. Yang is talking to me. I've got electrodes on my scalp hooked up to a computer and I'm trying to raise the level on a meter that gets higher the more relaxed I am.
I guess I'm jut not relaxed, am I?
Mr. YANG: No, you're not. What you're doing is you're paying attention to the meter.
SYDELL: The brainwave measurement won't replace the handheld gaming controls, but NeuroSky's CEO Stanley Yang thinks it will add another dimension to game playing.
Mr. YANG: If you're in a Harry Potter game where you try to expel the Dementor, but you have to have happy memories in your head, so how does a computer know if you have happy memory or if you're happy in your head or not.
SYDELL: In fact, a good question might be how much can a computer know? Scientists within NeuroSky and other researchers are still trying to determine the meaning of particular brainwave activity. Yang believes we've just scratched the surface.
Mr. YANG: Eventually, maybe we will achieve a way of complete interface between the human mind and the computer somewhere down the road. Like the complete Matrix style lifestyle maybe, you know, some 50 years from now.
(Soundbite of movie The Matrix)
Mr. LAURENCE FISHBURNE (Actor): (As Morpheus) You have to let it all go, Neo. Fear, doubt and disbelief. Free your mind.
Mr. KEANU REEVES (Actor): (As Neo) Whoa.
SYDELL: Well, for now, mind reading computer games are meant to be fun. NeuroSky expects the first games using its technology to be out next year. Laura Sydell, NPR News, San Francisco.

Where the water wasn't pooled the creek was only about a meter wide. I found 2 streamside sals here, and one rock with two sets of eggs.
I didn't travel very far as I would have liked along the stream because after a while I was in people's backyards.

Mobile Ad Hoc Network Routing Protocols: A Comparative Study
Free registration required
Executive Summary
An Ad hoc network is a collection of wireless mobile hosts forming a temporary network without the aid of any centralized administration or infrastructure. Such networks have no fixed topology due to the high degree of node mobility. Hence, efficient and reliable routing is one of the key challenges in mobile ad hoc networks. Many routing algorithms have been proposed and developed for accomplishing this task. Therefore, it is difficult to determine which protocol performs best under a number of different scenarios. Hence, this paper presents review and a comparison of the typical representatives of routing protocols designed for MANETs.

24 Forever With You - 3-spu When i awoke that morning, I had no idea of how lengthy Toms shoes I'd in fact slept. I eventually managed to inspire myself magically, to go downstairs for breakfast. The moment I obtained out of my mattress, fairly, my chair that night time, I waltzed to the rest room, fastened my hair into a bun, washed my deal with to acquire the black eyeliner and mascara stains off my encounter. It took me a terrifyingly extended . half one hour to acquire into a first rate issue, and walk down the steps, however in my pajamas. After I got downstairs, it had been obvious to me, why I had slept in that backbreaking chair that night time. I had entirely forgotten! I noticed the smiling faces of 4 developed men - I actually are unable to call them guys (!) - staring up at me in awe, due to the fact I used to be half way down the steps, and barely dressed. 'Good morning' chimed the 4 voices, and I had barely opened my eyes, but I nevertheless noticed which they ended up all only putting on their boxers. I indicate, to check out Georg like this was typical, he's my brother, however the other three I had under no circumstances observed similar to this previous to. 'Hmm.' I grunted, waved my arm for someone to receive my coffee, and toppled in excess of onto the cozy chair, just reverse the packed eating table. 'GEORG!....Espresso!...Be sure to!'I said, really not while in the mood, viewing as my early morning feeling had taken about. I switched the Television on, and flicked from the channels. 'Dude, are you currently gonna get her that espresso or not? She looks form of pissed.' Gustav claimed and Georg gave the coffee to Expenses, who handed it on to Tom. 'You just take it. C'mon!' Expenses mentioned. 'Okay, I am going.' Tom retorted. He walked behind me, and sat to the chair parallel to mine, after passing me my coffee. 'Thanks. I would like this now. You already know, if I hadn't damaged my arm, therefore you weren't my brothers companion, I might have absolutely tipped you out of my bed very last night time.' I concluded, and blew within the flaming espresso. 'Sorry. I assumed it was Georg's place.' 'Georg has Brad Pitt's posters on his wall? I didn't realize that.' I replied, acquiring a person of my well-known stupid moments, again! 'Haha, no, I was just messing with you. I was the last to head to mattress, so I arrived in your room, due to the fact the other folks ended up occupied.' 'I know. I am kidding. Perfectly, anyhow...' I commenced, but as an alternative to finishing my sentence the way I desired to, I ended it by having an ear splitting scream....I had just poured flaming espresso throughout my bare legs! 'SHIT! AH!! SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!' I screamed and ran on the bathroom, to pour cold h2o above my legs. Georg ran in immediately after me, closed the door, and waited in there with me. I sat there, in freezing h2o, in my micro pajama shorts, and my fifty percent naked brother, for about 15 minutes. Just after that, he introduced that he needed to go, and so I stayed there on your own. I acquired out, and dried my legs, set on thoroughly clean apparel that did not stink of espresso, consisting of new shorts, and my favourite 'Sum 41' t-shirt, and went to clean up my mess. 'It's all right. We cleaned it up.' Bill and Gusti reported, and I gave them both a hug and thanked them. 'You should really get a thing on that' Gustav reported, and threw Georg a cream he had just dug from the cupboard. ' Consider that,' ''Dr. Gustav on the rescue.' I joked, and many of us laughed, despite the fact that this wasn't a very humorous subject.. 'Here. I am going to do this.' Georg explained, and rubbed the cream into my higher and reduced left leg, which was flaming red, like a sunshine burnt lobster! 'Thanks, guys. Shouldn't you be heading for the caffe? Jewels will probably be pissed at you.' I claimed, nevertheless they shut me up, plus they ended up in no rush,that Jewels could wait Toms shoes Australia around and which they ended up waiting for Tom, anyhow. I went to my room, upstairs, and was about to crash onto my bed, once i discovered Tom in it, examining one particular of my random teenager girl publications. 'DUDE! GET OUT Previously!' I hissed, but Tom just shifted a tiny bit, and pulled me down onto the little simple mattress. I felt seriously uncomfortable, partially because we happen to be just lying there like gaylords, as well as due to the fact neither of us was usually dressed. 'Do you intend on getting from my bed?' I added, but he just reported 'Uh-Uh. No way.', and I quickly gave up any negotiations, and experimented with to have up and about. I used to be of course, prevented in performing so, since Tom pulled me again, and I ended up on major of him, blushing like a strawberry. Prior to I do know it, he kissed me, and inside several minutes it had been over. And of course, several MINUTES. It absolutely was the very best three minutes of my everyday living, while a chain of spit hung from out lips if they parted. We didn't truly treatment, and ongoing kissing. This only went on for a couple of much more minutes, and was interrupted when Statement entered the area, jumped back again from surprise, and ended up around the floor, just after tripping himself on 1 of my shoes. 'Oh My God!' Oh Jeez! SO SORRY!' I screamed, and ran to acquire him up, with Tom's assist. We could not really do nearly anything because we were giggling and chuckling, even choking, whilst striving to achieve that. 'It's very good! I'm very good! Which is not why I am shocked though...What had been you two accomplishing in any case?!' Expenses stated, and his voice crackled somewhat, and was shaky and uneasy when he spoke the final phrases. 'Nothing. Almost nothing! Definitely absolutely nothing. Just, you already know, chilling...Like...like turtles!' Tom and I stated in unison, and stared at every other, just as if we ended up telepathic, when we happen to be basically acting like mentally retarded men and women. 'Yeeeah...Hear, Ena, I have just gotta tell Georg...' Monthly bill started but was lower off by me, once i hissed 'Oh, no, do not notify him anything! PLEASE'....but Invoice just ongoing, 'That we will watch a school perform, that is certainly currently being set on in Gustav's sister's faculty....?' He completed but hesitated. I nodded, gave him a hug, and went downstairs, to get some coke...Cold drinks are the way, not less than they cannot melt off you! ^ Even though Ena was downstairs ^ 'So. What happen to be you executing anyhow? She's youthful than you. You do recognize that it is illegal to own sexual relations with any individual beneath 18, when you are eighteen?' Bill reported, placing around the act of a father figure, that clearly didn't place down Tom's self admiration, and moral. 'Nothing.' 'Yeah. Kissing your band mate's sister, is absolutely not a single thing.' 'OKAY!...For those who know why will you be inquiring?' Tom snapped. 'Because!... I felt like it. Additionally, I'm your brother...brothers act like that!' Bill concluded, leaving Tom, who just so transpires to get older than him, speechless, but furious. 'Anyway, who mentioned we were going to own 'THE S WORD'?..and no were not gonna shit together...' Tom snapped, and failed to count on a solution from Bill, but nonetheless, Bill replied. 'Okay! I get it! Just loosen up!...Anyhow! Switch the topic...Why happen to be you lying about the bed jointly?' 'Uh-uh. You are not going there. And i'm not about to tell you.' 'FINE!' 'GUYS!' Georg's voice bellowed from downstairs. 'WERE ALL Heading Into the CAFFE! HURRY UP DUDES!' 'COMING!' the twins chimed, and built their way downstairs, to seek out us all dressed and ready, instruments strapped on our backs, perfectly, Gustav had 2 pairs of drumsticks, and Georg had his Bass...I had my skateboard...I suppose I could skate with their songs inside the qualifications...(hmm?) 'Are you heading to consider your things?' I asked Tom, and he responded by picking up his guitar, which I didn't even see at the rear of the couch. 'Where are we going, by the way?' I questioned, due to the fact I failed to hear everything, as of this early morning. 'To the Audio Caffe. We are gonna perform some tunes.' Gustav replied. 'WAIT! Now?!?! What caffe?' I retorted, hissing by any means of them. 'Yeah, now. "Paulies Bar".' all of them chimed. 'Right...Perfectly, I am not going! No probability!' I snapped. 'WHY?! I suggest, we need help, you already know...?' Statement and Tom claimed, and I could sense myself blushing. 'I-I-I cannot. All my pals go there, and I, apparently, do not belong inside the skater clique just after breaking my arm...I just are not able to demonstrate up there like that!' I explained, creating my decision closing. I opened the door, and let the men out, whilst I went towards the skate park, which was critically shut to Paulies' Bar. 'I'll occur afterwards..If I truly feel like it.' I texted Georg, and he named again, demanding explanations, and I thought as though he was gazing me, his eyes piercing via me, looming strangely close to me. 'Georg. I just advised you! I don't wish to go! Alright?! Are unable to you let me make my very own alternative?! FOR BLOODY An individual TIME!' I shouted and hung up. Gosh, brothers. From time to time good, more often than not, terrific pains during the ass... I felt that I was generating the worst choice of my living, not going to that Bar currently, but I just understood that I couldn't have the option to confront the members on the skater clique, without the need of embarrassing myself, or without sensation neglected. What has this damage performed to me? Oh, I will tell you! It is made me the undesirable one particular in my clique, it is really also created me the a single 'who usually has an excuse for not turning up', and for some reason it really is also made me a wannabe. WHY WOULD I INJURE MYSELF ON Reason?! Maybe I need to visit the bar in any case. Rise up to individuals freaks. Demonstrate them who the true me is.... 'Geeeooooorg. I am coming. Towards the bar I suggest. Who else is there although?!?! Reply NOW! X :D' I typed and clicked 'send'..Waiting around for his reply may possibly have been the worst moments of my daily life. Luckily, it arrived fast. Huh, I really do use a trustworthy brother! 'It's just me plus the guys, we are in front of the bar....Lucky to suit your needs, it really is closed!. We're not gonna be enjoying right now. Occur anyhow, I have received a little something to inform you. X:)' 'Coming. Be there in 10mins, rush hour sucks.' I replied and set off inside the other direction. Who understood covering 1km could just take SO Extended. I managed to have on the bar in time, and identified my brother as well as men surrounded by a swarm of ladies. What was this?! Because when did they've a lot of fans? Were they even followers? Or were they just desperate for interest? My prediction for your 'after party' was that Tom was gonna be getting some so-called motion, and the rest may be sitting there, consuming, and dying of boredom. On this course of action, they might be joined, by me. 'Georg. Georg. GEORG. GEORG!' 'What. What! WHAT?!' He claimed, joking obviously. Well, at least I thought he was during the 'joking mood'. 'What the hell is happening?' 'Oh nothing truly. Merely a full load of women...And us. I assume you already know what that leads to, finally.' 'No Georg, do you severely consider that I'm going to enable you to go all around and bang all of those girls?' I retorted, standing by my closing final decision firmly. 'Ena, not BANG! We are in all probability just heading to own a number of rounds. Nothing considerable. Chill sis, I wouldn't let you down like that. Ever. You are aware of that, correct?' Georg stated, and I promptly gave him a hug, and burst into tears. 'I-I-I'm s-s-so sor-ry. I sh-sh-should 'av-ve trusted you. D-do you for-rgive m-m-me?' I sniffed. I significantly doubt he comprehended this small sentimental speech of mine, however it nonetheless felt great, the fact that I obtained it from me. 'Shh, shh, it is really okay, never worry. Hey, let us go back dwelling. We don't really need to be here' he comforted me, and I felt safe, locked away, in which nobody could hurt me. 'Let me just go say laters into the boys.' and that protected feeling went away. I couldn't believe that that I had just broken down, emotionally, in front of 3 men, that could By no means be from my daily life, on account of the best way they were 'tight' with my brother. Good. A further results at embarrassment through the ultimately retarded, me. 'Is, is she CRYING? How old is she!? Hahaaa...' I heard some women stroll by and pay me a pretty impolite and vulgar remark. I just turned about, wiped the tears off my experience and snapped 'Hey, you. Yeah, you there, the sluttish a person! I'll get nearer to them than you ever will, so I assume you'll want to prevent making an attempt. Go back to the streets, bang some outdated man, do no matter you want. But will not you dare, insult me!' 'Oooh, I'm afraid. What exactly are you, like 5? End attempting to act all developed up, it ain't functioning.' She snapped again, similarly sharp, and equally prepared to strike back once more. 'Shut up you cow. What exactly are you, like fifty? Stop making an attempt for being younger. You'd be better off finding cosmetic surgery. Seriously. Your confront is so caked up in make-up, that I bet no one has even noticed you. Oh wait around, really that's a great thing. They'd somewhat die than see your deal with.' I turned close to, ready to wander away, when i turned all-around and claimed 'Oh by the way, I'm 16.' 'No surprise. I thought I acknowledged you.' 'Wait, just because I'm sixteen, you recognized me? Dude, that makes no perception. You understand what, I do not truly care. Men, can we go now?' I argued, but gradually gave up. She wasn't worth anything. Oh, and who was she? 'Ena. ENNAA! We are heading. Aren't you coming?!' I heard Expenses and Gustav yell from several meters away. Of course, Tom was nowhere to get witnessed. What does one assume? Great Following Chapter! Room for advancement toms

Front page this bitch.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Parodies are still supposed to be funny. Mocking something isn't inherently good and scribbles and shouts are inherently bad even when done satirically.
I don't like video game parodies either but at least oney, egoraptor, etc. actually put some work in to it and make something that's decent to look at it.
This is completely devoid of artistic merit and wit and mocking oafish comedy by making oafish comedy isn't challenging or impressive. You can mock things with no subtlety using subtlety and that might actually have been amusing but this was just as bland and over the top and bad (probably worse actually) then what it was trying to mock.
omg shud up carrot
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
this. frontpage now
you're not listening to me
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I hate this cartoon because I have no sense of humor and I don't understand that the author is mocking artists like Oney and Egoraptor for only doing quick movements and shouting to seem funny to children and other terrible people with terrible taste.
I also did not understand that cartoons like that only get front paged because they pander to the lowest common denominator.
