Welcome to another exciting episode of This Week in Defunct Games! Join Cyril every Friday as he reviews the best (and worst) retro releases for the week. It's our final article of 2012. I can think of no better way to go out than to review games starring Mario, Mega Man, Wario and a bunch of Shock Troopers. This week we're looking at the original Mega Man, Wario Land 2 and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels for the 3DS Virtual Console. Not to be outdone, the Wii has Shock Troopers 2nd Squad. Which of these games is worth picking up? Find out now when you read our last reviews of 2012!
Shock Troopers: 2nd Squad (SNK)
[ Release: December 27 | Price: 900 Points | Console: Neo Geo | Year: 1999 ]
What Is It?
If you're looking for continuity between Shock Troopers games, then chances are you're going to be incredibly disappointed with Shock Troopers 2nd Squad. This kinda/sorta-sequel cuts the number of characters from eight to four and ditches the team mode. But don't worry, not all is lost. This Shock Troopers "sequel" adds brand new vehicles that make it feel more like a Metal Slug game.
If you can get past some of the questionable changes, you'll find another explosive action game. You'll fight through city streets, the sandy desert, a well-protected air base and residential neighborhood. It's a solid hour of wall-to-wall shooting action, complete with moving stages and enormous multi-part bosses. The new art style and emphasis on story may turn some gamers off, but there's still a lot to love about Shock Troopers 2nd Squad.
Does It Still Hold Up?
Released in 1999, 2nd Squad's visuals are a marked improvement over the original Shock Troopers. Here we see both 2D sprites and 3D polygons creating an effect you don't normally see in Neo Geo games. The characters don't have the hard-edge look of the original, instead opting for a more cartoon-friendly approach. Even with the unfortunate cuts to the cast, Shock Troopers 2nd Squad is an incredible action game that manages to hold up surprisingly well.
Is It Worth The Money?
Forget Metal Slug; bring me another Shock Troopers game. While not as universally loved, I have a soft spot for this MERCS clone. The 3D polygons complement the sprites, creating a look that is unique to this sequel. Even in the midst of cliche boss battles and backdrops, this impressive sequel manages to find a way to make them feel fresh. Shock Troopers 2nd Squad may be a shallow experience, but it's a roller coaster ride full explosions and cartoonish figures.
Wario Land 2 (Nintendo)
[ Release: December 20 | Price: $4.99 | Console: Game Boy Color | Year: 1998 ]
What Is It?
After battling for top billing in the Super Mario Land trilogy, Wario is back in his very own over-the-top Game Boy sequel. This 1998 release ditches the more famous Italian plumber and instead focusing on our favorite money-loving sourpuss. The result is nothing short of inspired. Wario Land II sports 12 unique chapters, 52 individual levels and tons of quirky mini-games.
Captain Syrup returns in this 2D sequel. With the help of her legion of seafaring thieves, the evil Captain steals Wario's riches, ransacks the place and, worst of all, leaves the bathtub faucet running. What a jerk! It's up to Wario to take back his fortune and make sure Captain Syrup never strikes again. The good news is that our hero is invincible to all attacks. Unlike Super Mario, Wario won't lose lives when getting hit. The challenge comes from solving puzzles and avoiding obstacles that take your coins. As a result, Wario Land II feels more like a maze when compared to the three previous Super Mario Land outings. Whether that's a good thing or not is up to you, but there's no question that Wario has found a style of platforming action that is all his own.
Does It Still Hold Up?
Wario Land II is yet another good looking game from Nintendo. Here's a company that really understood how to get the most out of aging Game Boy hardware. At the same time, what is impressive about the game has little to do with the visuals. The game really shines when it lets the inventive puzzles take over. I also really enjoy the varied chapters, which take you through a world that is decidedly darker and scarier than anything in Super Mario Land. Even with the limited color palette, Wario Land II still manages to hold up.
Is It Worth The Money?
This is Nintendo at the top of their game. The large graphics really pop on the small Game Boy screen and the world is rich with hidden rooms and amazing boss battles. And despite getting his start in a Super Mario Land game, Wario manages to have a unique feel that is all his own. The puzzles are inventive and there are enough levels to warrant the slightly higher price for Game Boy Color downloads. Wario Land II is the perfect way to end the first full year of the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console.
Mega Man (Capcom)
[ Release: December 27 | Price: $4.99 | Console: NES | Year: 1987 ]
What Is It?
Who knew that this little Mega Man game (with its terrible cover art and simplistic story) would spawn dozens of sequels, remakes and spin-offs? In fact, I can't think of another 8-bit game that spawned so many different installments. Not even Nintendo is pimping out Mario as much as Capcom is milking the Mega Man franchise. Between the recently released Street Fighter X Mega Man and this NES port, Capcom is bringing the blue bomber back in a big way.
In this game you do battle with the first set of robot toughies, including Cutman, Gutsman, Elecman, Fireman, Iceman, and Bombman. The idea is both simple and ingenious: Once you beat a boss you collect their special weapon. Like all Mega Man games, the joy is figuring out which weapon works best with each boss encounter. This is the first of several announced Mega Man ports for the Nintendo 3DS. Hopefully this all leads to a brand new Mega Man adventure.
Does It Still Hold Up?
If you're a long-time Mega Man fan, then you're probably going to be a little surprised at how barebones this title is. You can't slide, there's no charge blast and you don't have a robot dog companion. In other words, this is about as primitive as Mega Man gets. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but those advancements definitely added something to the formula. If you can get over that, then you'll find that this is a great 2D shooter that holds up remarkably well.
Is It Worth The Money?
Yes the original Mega Man is fun, but fans of the series would be much better suited to just wait until Mega Man 2 is released early next year. Or better yet, Nintendo 3DS gamers who also own a PSP or PS Vita should seek out Capcom's amazing Mega Man Powered Up. Not only do you get this full game (completely remade with 3D polygons), but you can also play through the game with the various boss characters. If you don't own a PSP and still want a good Mega Man game then this should do, but just be warned that there are much better Mega Man games on the horizon.
Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels (Nintendo)
[ Release: December 27 | Price: $4.99 | Console: Famicom (Jp) | Year: 1986 ]
What Is It?
Apparently Nintendo has decided to celebrate the end of 2012 by making you hate Mario. This is Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, the REAL sequel to Miyamoto's classic 8-bit platformer. While we Americans were given a Super Mario sequel that featured vegetables, Birdo and a guy named Wart, the Japanese were playing through a Mario game that looked and played almost exactly like the first game. Unfortunately we didn't get our hands on these "lost levels" until the 1993 release of Super Mario All-Stars, and at that point Nintendo had gone in and cleaned up the graphics to make them more presentable on the 16-bit system.
So what is Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels? Picture the hardest set fan-made levels imaginable. The Lost Levels feels like those levels come to love. There's only one problem: These frustrating levels aren't made by fan; they were done by Nintendo employees. People actually got paid to churn out these unfair stages.
This is a dark and dreary Mario game full of the same enemies and tiles. But don't let the graphics fool you, this is also an extremely difficult game that will challenge even the most hardcore Mario fanboy. The problem is that there isn't much of a change between the first and second game, outside of a new power-up (which is to be avoided at all cost) you'll be asked to do the same thing that you did in the first exciting adventure. Only this time around it's not nearly as much fun or exciting. You can still have a lot of fun with The Lost Levels, but expect this game to kick your ass.
Does It Still Hold Up?
Visually, Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels looks a lot like the first game. It's not until you start playing that you realize that this is not your typical Mario outing. Right from the get-go you'll run into punishing platforming sections and far too many leaps of faith. Most players will abandon the game quickly; wisely realize that it's not with the trouble. Nothing about the presentation or level designs is as memorable as the original game, leaving me a little unsure whether it holds up or not.
Is It Worth The Money?
There's a reason why these levels were lost. You know you're in for nothing but bad times when the only addition is a poisoned mushroom that immediately kills you. That isn't the good-natured spirit of Super Mario Bros. Miyamoto's masterpiece was both challenging and fair, a rare combination for an 8-bit platformer. This Japanese sequel takes away all of the wrong lessons, leaving us with a game that actively hates you. I can understand the morbid curiosity surrounding this long-lost sequel, but Mario fans would be better off picking up Wario Land II.

For the blind and visually impaired in Oklahoma, help and opportunity are readily found in NewView Oklahoma, a nonprofit organization that seeks to give empowerment and independence to their clients. The organization's president and CEO, Lauren Branch, discusses its programs and impact in the state.
Needs and Deeds: NewView Oklahoma
Q: What is the history of your organization?
A: We got started here in 1949, so we're in our 65th year this year. We started as a training and employment facility, and we've evolved over the years to be a full-service agency for people who are blind or visually impaired, which includes a low-vision clinic, vision rehabilitation services, we still do vocational training and we're the largest employer of people who are blind in the state of Oklahoma. In our employment program, we employ about 100 people who are blind or visually impaired on a variety of different jobs. We've got a manufacturing facility. We've got people in supervisory and management positions, professional positions. We have off-site work, so that's a really important part of what we do.
Q: Who are your clients, and how do you meet their biggest needs?
A: The foundation of our organization is the vision rehabilitation program. Whether we're serving a child with a vision impairment who may need training in orientation and mobility, or their parents need resources to help them maneuver through our educational systems, that helps them lay the foundation for getting a good education.
For our working-age adults who are losing their vision — many times in conjunction with that — they lose their jobs, so it's important for us to retrain them so they can start another career or enter back into the career that they were working in.
A lot of what we do is around helping a person live again. You have to be able to get up in the morning and make your breakfast, check the time, match your clothes, manage your medication, maneuver safely. If you're not able to do that, the chances that you're able to work are slim to none, so we've got to get a person back doing those daily living things again, and then we can put them into more intensive training that really is around career development.
Then for a lot of older people, their goal is quality of life and being safe and independent. We're able to assess their vision and then work to train that individual in adaptive living techniques, teach them how to use their appliances, teach them how to cook again, manage medication, travel safely and access information. That's a large part of what people want to do now, they want to stay connected to their family members, so we can teach them to use software that will enable them to do emails, scan documents, read their mail.

DEFINITION of 'Royalty Units'
An ownership unit in a royalty trust. A royalty unit gives the unit holder a stake in the income generated by the holdings of the trust. A royalty trust takes ownership stakes in operating companies or in their cash flows. The royalty trust owns the income or cash flow that the company generates and passes this income on to the royalty unit holders of that trust. Royalty units are seen as an attractive investment because the income generated by the assets is subject to taxes at the individual level, rather than the double taxation which is seen with dividends on common stock.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Royalty Units'
For example, let's say that an investor holds a royalty unit in ABC Oil & Gas Royalty Trust, which owns several oil-producing operations. The investor in the royalty trust will receive income distributions as the underlying oil-producing operations generate income for the trust. If the trust's assets generate $1 million dollars and there are 100,000 royalty units, each unit will receive $10.

Who will guard the guardians? Ten years after the Catholic hierarchy of the United States gathered in Dallas and adopted unprecedented policies to address the scourge of child sexual abuse by clergy, the question of accountability at the top remains unanswered.
To be sure, the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People—the Dallas charter, for short—took some critical steps. In June 2002, the bishops passed a "one-strike" policy for abusers and began pushing the Vatican to streamline the processes that would allow them to more easily defrock molesters.
The bishops also vowed to report allegations to the civil authorities instead of keeping them in-house, to more rigorously screen not only seminarians but all church workers and volunteers, and to teach children in Catholic facilities to avoid potential abusers. In addition, they set up an office of child protection to audit each diocese's compliance with the charter, and they established the National Review Board, composed of lay Catholics, to make sure they were doing what they promised.
But throughout it all, the bishops exempted themselves from accountability—even though records showed that feckless inaction by many bishops, or even deliberate malfeasance by some, had allowed abusers to claim so many victims.
The best answer the bishops had to this in Dallas was a behind-the-scenes "fraternal correction" policy, by which a bishop would quietly pass along any concerns about another bishop to that bishop. Church tradition was invoked to preclude any external oversight by laypeople or other prelates. As always, each bishop would answer only to the pope, who alone had the authority to remove the head of a diocese.
Now, as the bishops gather next week in Atlanta for their annual spring meeting, they will hear an update on the Dallas charter but are unlikely to address this enormous loophole—despite events that make it all the more urgent. [More]

So we have bishops telling us that Obama and the Religious Sisters are out of order regarding sexual morality. "Physicians cure thyself!" This is a disgrace. No wonder no one is convinced of their honesty and transparence.. not to speak of their competence in this matter of sex.

I was born at the brink of the Great Depression. I reached sixteen the year of Nagasaki and Hiroshima. The daughter of a Jewish father and a Protestant mother, I learned about the Holocaust first from newsreels of the liberation of the death camps. I was a young white woman who had never known hunger or homelessness, growing up in the suburbs of a deeply segregated city in which neighborhoods were also dictated along religious lines: Christian and Jewish. I lived sixteen years of my life secure in the belief that though cities could be bombed and civilian populations killed, the earth stood in its old indestructible way. The process through which nuclear annihilation was to become a part of all human calculation had already begun, but we did not live with that knowledge during the first sixteen years of my life. And a recurrent theme in much poetry I read was the indestructibility of poetry, the poem as a vehicle for personal immortality.
She was a very warm, approachable person. I met Adrienne Rich many years ago in London. That was where I first met her, in '84. She said then that one of the great influences on her was the Irish poet Yeats. Yeats lived in a very public world, he had a very powerful sense of the role of the poem in the public life of a place, and you can see how that carried down into her work. I think there's one other point that sometimes gets a little bit overlooked. She is sometimes discussed as a polemical poet or a political poet as if that came from her feminism alone. What is overlooked is that she is the most Whitmanian of the poets of her generation.... Walt Whitman lived at a very stirring time, a time of civil war, a time of enormous pressure on language and imagination in America. He believed in being a national poet. Adrienne Rich believed in that tradition, and she believed in being a national poet. If you look at a poem like 'North American Time,' you can see the connection to Whitman and her concern for the public role of the poem.
A man walking on the street
feels unwell has felt unwell
all week, a little Yet the flowers crammed
in pots on the corner: furled anemones:
he knows they open
burgundy, violet, pink, amarillo
all the way to their velvet cores
The flowers hanging over the fence: fuchsias:
each tongued, staring, all of a fire:
the flowers He who has
been happy oftener than sad
carelessly happy well oftener than sick
one of the lucky is thinkng about death
and its music about poetry
its translations of his life
And what good will it do you
to go homne and put on the Mozart Requiem?
Read Keats? How will culture cure you?
Poor, unhappy
unwell culture what can it sing or say
six weeks from now, to you?
Give me your living hand If I could take the hour
death moved into you undeclared, unnamed
--even if sweet, if I could take that hour
between my forceps tear at it like a monster
wrench it out of your flesh dissolve its shape in quicklime
and make you well again
no, not again
but still....

JimboJones October 27, 2011 12:51 PM I am standing on the sea shore. A ship sails and spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the ocean. She is an object of beauty and I stand watching her till at last she fades on the horizon, and someone at my side says 'she is gone.' Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all- she is just as large in the masts, hull and spars as she was when I saw her, and just as able to bear her load of living freight to its destination. ****cont Reply Report abuse 2 agree 0 disagree
JimboJones October 27, 2011 12:53 PM The diminished size and total loss of sight is in me, not her- and just at the moment when someone at my side says 'she is gone.' there are others who are watching her coming, and other voices take up a glad shout, 'there she comes,' and that is Dying.

No issues what so ever. Perfect stay EVERY time I come to Springfield. Must stay for those that have not had the chance
Great stay!
February 17, 2015
Front desk staff was very friendly. Recognized us as Platinum Elite members and offered us a welcome gift. The room was quaint and clean. A little dated in some areas, but overall very nice.
If our daughter decides on attending college in the Springfield area, I'm sure this will be our place to stay!

The Formation of Molecular Helium in a Glow Discharge
JOSA, Vol. 41, Issue 9, pp. 619-622 (1951)
Acrobat PDF (583 KB)
The light from near the electrodes of an ac glow discharge in helium is found to be particularly rich in the He2 spectrum. This light occurs at an unusual phase of the voltage cycle.
The process which forms excited molecules also gives rise to excited atoms. Furthermore, the process is inhibited by the presence of an electric field.
There are indications that the process is one of recombination between electrons and atomic positive ions.

Product Description
LUMI-LOON ™ PURPLE BALLOONS with WHITE L.E.D's Patent No. 7,344,267 Our NEW & IMPROVED BALLOON LIGHT. This is a party planner's dream come true! ALL IN ONE UNIT, a 14" PURPLE BALLOON , Light Source, Easy Fill One Way Valve and an attached 6' Ribbon. This item is soooo cool that a Patent has been issued and additional Patents are Pending. We have taken a High Quality (U.S. made) 14" PURPLE Latex Balloon, and pre-attached it to a one way valve. Inside the valve are 3 High Powered WHITE L.E.D's that have three modes: Slow Blink, Fast Blink, or Constant On. Finally, attached to the valve is a 6' white ribbon. Please order in increments of 1 bag (10 Lumi Loons). Please Note: The valve on the LUMI-LOON is designed to be inflated using a either Helium Tank or Compressed Air Supply with a black latex straight inflator. The patent pending valve creates a very tight seal to stop air from leaking but by doing so prevents the balloon from being inflated by mouth. It can be inflated using a standard bicycle/car inflator. THIS BALLOON CAN NOT BE INFLATED BY MOUTH. - Questions & Answers

- Light Purple Balloons Review by Kathy
Rating We did a balloon Release and the lights made it very special

- Light your way Review by don't have one
Rating I filled the balloons with helium and tied them to a balloon weight along with unlit balloons to decorate around the whole place. I kept the light on until it was time to dance and then put the light on flash. Some of the lighted balloons didn't stay up though but it did look very cool. A few people did ask where I had bought the lighted balloons and of course I told them!!

- Awesome Review by Rosie
Rating I used this balloons for a surprise birthday party and everyone raved about it. I used some of the balloons blinking in different settings and some of them just on. It added such a wonderful feel to the occasion. I ordered 30 balloons and 4 of them the ballon came off of the piece that lights up. Also you have to inflate the balloon really well for it to rise. Some of them did not stay up for

- great idea Review by 5barjr
Rating One bag of balloons leaked but we were reimbursed immediately, the lights make them a little heavy to stay a float with Helium. They worked good for the school homecoming, blacklight dance.

Rating I bought these balloons for my husbands 50th birthday party. I got them in white, purple and black. They were my main decorations. I loved them! The place where we had the party had a dance floor but no disco lights, so I put a bunch of balloons on the dance floor and set them on fast flash....instant dicso lights!

A few tire questions
I just replaced by 2 front tires on my F-350 4x4 dually and the dealer said that I should replace all 6 at same time, something about tire wear. The back ones are ok for now so I was hoping to wait until next year and then replace those. Does it matter or was the dealer just trying to get me to pay for all 6?
I put on BF Goodrich commercial TA's which seem to be good tires but not very agressive tread pattern. When I do replace the back tires I want to go with a much more aggresive tire. Does this make sense since the fronts are not the same? In other words, should all 6 pretty much be the same tread pattern? Final question- before I replaced the fronts, they were wearing badly mainly on the inside on both front tires. Is there anyting I should have checked to make sure that the new tires dont wear like this? The truck does not pull to the right or left and there was no excessive vibration. |

text: Hey all, i'm ready equipment wise and i hope skill wise to try my hand at my first all grain attempt. I was thinking of making a "Holiday IPA" with a pretty simple grain bill to try. Something like: 12 lbs. American 2-row .75 lbs. American Caramel 80°L .25 lbs. Dextrine Malt Then a hop schedule with maybe chinook, centennial and Citra. I'm gonna download brewsmith to plug everything in. I was also pondering of maybe holiday "extras" : lemon and orange zest, maybe crystallized or candied ginger and a cinnamon stick. 1st does this sound like a "good idea" as a first AG attempt? And would the "extras" go in at flameout or better somewhere else like seeped and the sterilized seeping liquid put in the bottle bucket or keg? Thanks!

Recap | Final Stats | Photo Gallery
On scoring on the zone... "We got good looks. In a game like this you are not going to get wide open, no one guarding you looks . We worked on it all day yesterday in practice. We are perimeter shooters and by playing the zone they are forcing us to shoot from the outside since we are so small."
On the last timeout... "I told the referee that I wanted a timeout if they missed the second shot. So I guess they called the timeout before they knew who had the ball. We wanted that last shot from Quan Prowell. We had two open shots that were air-balls. We needed those to go down. We had two wide open shots to extend our lead and we missed it. With us missing those shots earlier on we were not able to extend that lead to nine or 10 points. Defensively we were good enough, offensively we were not."
On players being fatigued... "I do not know. We had the upper 30's in attempts. We need to be there because that is the way we score."
On missing 3-pointers... "A miss is a miss. We missed them badly. We had a wide open one in the corner. (Quan) Prowell missed his from the top. We had two bad shooting performances for us. Which we cannot have we just cannot have that. "
Dennis Felton, Georgia Head Coach On facing adversity throughout the season... "We've come so close this season and I'm really happy for our guys. Through all the adversity they've faced this season, they've really stayed positive and just kept up their effort."
On more basketball to come... "We've continued to stay optimistic the whole time, and what's really been gratifying for me to watch is how optimistic Sundiata (Gaines) and Dave (Bliss) have stayed. The rest of the guys know we're in a tough spot and that we've got a bright future. Those two guys aren't going to be back in Athens and that must be very difficult for them. We were walking towards the locker room and Sundiata is saying 'keep this up' in the SEC and in the NCAA tournament. That's the kind of eternal optimism that this team has continued to play with."
On Albert Jackson's playing... "He has been playing very well and obviously had a big game tonight. He's had three-out-of-four games that he has played very well for us. We've talked about our inside players having a big game tonight, just like we would have a tough time matching up with them on the perimeter. A lot of his baskets were great rebounds, but he also had some tough ones where he got hit."
On Auburn shooting three's... "I knew we would have to play a lot of zone and it really paid off. They could've easily hit a lot more, but I didn't feel like we could man up to them out there."
Auburn Player Quotes Senior Forward Quan Prowell On Auburn's Shots... "No, it was a tough night from outside tonight for us. We made some good shots, but couldn't make the open ones."
On how Georgia changed the defense... "I think the first few minutes they played us a lot in the man. They switched their defense up a lot on us, we were guessing half of the time which defense they were in. It was just a tough night for us."
On good look on his last shot... "Yes, I think it was a good look, it just went in and then out."
On a disappointing loss... "It was real disappointing. I just wanted to go out on a good note."
On mindset of the team... "We have to go into the tournament with a strong mindset and play as hard as we can to win as many as possible."
Senior Guard Frank Tolbert On playing his last game... "It was disappointing because we lost. We didn't shoot the ball very good, we played good defense we just couldn't put the ball in the basket."
Georgia Player Quotes Albert Jackson, Forward On key for success... "Coach told me to just be more comfortable on offense and continue building confidence."
On being physical... "We have been practicing on it a lot every day. We go through it at least 20 minutes a day."
On confidence coming into Auburn game... "The coaches kept telling me to make sure I go to score. It didn't matter if I take a dribble or go straight up, just go to score."
On playing Auburn... "Coach said they shoot an average of 25 three's a game and average 10. We could not let them do that. That was our goal."
Billy Humphrey, Guard On winning on road... "It feels real good to get the win. It's a real confidence booster, especially going into the SEC tournament."
On beating Auburn... "It hasn't happened in a while. So to come in here on the road and get a big win before we go back home feels real good."

Calvin Johnson and Julie Doiron tour together
Two singer-songwriters are always better than one, right? Especially when one is male and the other female. That way you get the whole human package.
So it's nice to see
Calvin Johnson
Julie Doiron

All six children, many of the grandchildren and even a few great grandchildren were present. At the cemetery, Dad was given an honor guard ceremony by the Kent County Honor Guard. This included a 21 gun salute and taps. I was given the flag that was on his casket.

Yesterday, I watched the news story of the fire in the middle of the flood in New York City. It was amazing that such a destructive fire could function in the middle of a storm and flood.

"The Mad, Mad, Mad World of Climatism" is the first book on climate change that is fun to read. Using figures, cartoons, and whimsical sidebars, Steve Goreham describes our crazy world, which is far down the primrose path of global warming fantasy. Contrary to popular consensus, global warming is natural and cars are innocent. But this book is not short on science. Goreham uses charts, graphs, and references to dozens of scientific papers to support his arguments. He shows that icecap melting, stronger storms, polar bear extinction, and many other climate fears are unfounded. At the same time, his large collection of zany pictures and quotes grabs the reader's interest. Learn the real story about climate change.

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. The company blamed the sluggish quarter on what it called a weak commodity market environment.TheStreet Ratings team rates JOY GLOBAL INC as a Buy with a ratings score of B-. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate JOY GLOBAL INC (JOY) a BUY. This is driven by several positive factors, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its solid stock price performance, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and good cash flow from operations. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had somewhat weak growth in earnings per share." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:

Biggies of Hoboken
- 11
- Follow
They are opening a branch on Rt 17 in Carlsdadt. Is it worth a visit?
They have 'history' in Hoboken, and another one down the shore. They haven't opened yet on the former Jay-Dee's site on Rte. 17. I wish them well, but I hope they don't have the same negative impact on the neighborhood that JDs did.
0 -
I went once when I lived in HOboken and once was enough. The food was greasy, sloppy and just not that impressive. If you do go, I hope you have a better experience.
0 -
Went to the one on the boardwalk in Asbury Park which was quite forgettable. Would not waste my time!
0 -
re: ttoommyy
OK, I have to amend my response.
We were going out last Saturday and had not had lunch yet. Biggie's was on the way out of town for us, so my partner stopped and double parked (the only way in Hoboken) while I ran in and got a couple of dogs with peppers and onions. They were pretty good! I looked the menu over and there were a few things from my childhood that I thought I may go back and try: potatoes and egg sandwich and broccoli rabe and sausage sandwich come to mind right now. So, bottom line: Biggie's is OK.
re: Curlz
True, but Biggie's doesn't aspire to be anything more than it is: Italian-American "festival food," if you will. TGIF and OG commercials would make you think you are getting a lot better food than what they actually serve. Plus, OG cons the customer into thinking it is Italian food, which it definitely is not; not even Italian-American.

iPod Saves Soldier's Life
iPod Saves Soldier's Life
This week Flickr user tikigod posted photos of an iPod that reportedly saved the life of a soldier when he was shot with an AK-47. The photo belonged to tikigod's friend Danny, who said:
Kevin Garrad (3rd Infantry Division) was on a street patrol in Iraq (Tikrit I believe) and as he rounded the corner of a building an armed (AK-47) insurgent came from the other side.
The two of them were within just a few feet of each other when they opened fire. The insurgent was killed and Kevin was hit in the left chest where his IPod was in his jacket pocket. It slowed the bullet down enough that it did not completely penetrate his body armor. Fortunately, Kevin suffered no wound.
Tikigod later got an e-mail from Apple, saying they were working to get Garrad a new iPod.

Clifden Castle, Ireland
The castle was built by John D'Arcy (1785-1839) in a Gothic Revival style in the early 19th century. John was a man of drive, energy and determination. He founded Clifden in 1812 and built his castle around the same time. He was married twice and had fourteen children in all, leaving one to assume that this was a very full and noisy family home.
Following John's death in 1839, the castle and town passed to his son and heir, Hyacinth. Like so many landlords in the West of Ireland, Hyacinth became bankrupt as a result of debts incurred during the Great Famine and in 1850 the town and castle went on sale.The new owners, the Eyre family from Bath in England, purchased the town and castle for £21,245. The Eyre's lived at the castle until the 1920s when the lands were eventually purchased by the government and divided out among the tenants. Sadly, the castle had no outright owner and, in time, was stripped bare of its slates and timbers and eventually fell to ruin.
One of the interesting features of this property is the standing stones. D'Arcy had these stones erected to imitate other standing stones around Ireland. It isn't unknown why he did this, but the stones have been surveyed and it has been determined that they are not as ancient as D'Arcy would have us believe.
The ruins are located west of the town of Clifden in the Connemara region of County Galway, Ireland.

We stayed at this resort in February, 2015. Very nice resort, great location on the beach, restaurants across the street. Friendly staff and neighbors who even offered to help us carry our luggage up to the 2nd floor (no elevator). Bright colors, kitchen fully stocked with everything you need except food. Flat screen TV hangs on the wall. We were really impressed with the table that converts to a very comfortable Murphy bed. Pictures need to be updated.

This resort is located in South Daytona Beach, which is close enough to all of the activities that Daytona Beach has to offer, yet quiet for those who prefer a good night sleep! Although there is no view of the ocean from unit 111 where we stayed, it is an oceanfront resort. The pool is oceanfront though. Everything you need is included in the room, with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs, and a foldout couch with bathroom downstairs. This room can easily accommodate up to 8 people. The kitchen is fully equipped, so you can cook if you like, and keep your food cold in the full sized fridge. Parking is a bit limited, so if you plan on having more than one vehicle, be sure to call ahead. Overall, I give this resort 4 stars!

The rooms are very small but clean and nice.It is close to all the Orlando attractions and very close to Daytona Beach boardwalk etc. Out of your door to the pool, down the steps to the beach, the location is great. You can use the laundry on a first come first served basis which is crucial for a week long stay. Not a 5 star resort but a small, friendly place to stay for a good price. 2 people in a studio is fine, 4 people in a studio need to be really good friends.
