Here is some elaboration on the rules for passing this on:
a) primary responsibility for keeping these awards moving rests with the awarder. If you haven't heard from your nominee by the following sunday, then its your responsibility (& pleasure) to pick again;
b) if the award goes missing for two weeks, one of the mods will post in the thread. This might indicate that it will be passed on asap. Lets face it we all take breaks from the forum and its unfair to deny someone a chance to pick their nominee just because they are exceptionally busy or taking a holiday;
c) on the other hand, this might indicate that the award is stuck. At that stage making a nomination for a new nominee is first come, first served. The proposals around voting are too difficult to manage in reality and the delight of all these awards is they are idiosyncratic, its what an individual llkes, not, as with the ACAs, what we as an AAR community like.

The Weekly Showcase was and is designed for all of AARland, from EU1 to HOI2. The idea is to select a single AAR (as opposed to a writer, that's covered under 'WritAAR of the Week') that deserves everyone's attention and focus on it. The only way this will work is with your participation.
1. Your AAR is selected! Congratulations! Please take a moment to say 'Hi' to your admirers!
2. After one week, please choose your successor. It can be any AAR for a Paradox published or created game on these forums, within the following guidelines:
A. Try not to select an AAR whose writer recently received another award. If the awards start parroting each other we've defeated the purpose.
B. Try to select an AAR in a different game/category than yours. This award is for all AARland and if people don't like game x, then they'll lose interest in participating.
3. Please add a comment or two about the AAR *and a link* when you reply nominating your successor.
4. Please post in the winning AAR's thread and/or PM the author letting him know he's won.
First Nomination:
Now then....as I mentioned in my last article, singling out one of many great AARs out there now is difficult. However, for our first Showcase I'd like to point out 54 - 40' or... by Machiavellian. This Victoria AAR relates the story of Columbia, a former British dominion located in what's now Washington and British Columbia from 1836.

Get READY: Gro-Mix expands when you add water!
1. Open a packet of Gro-Mix and pour into a Gro-Pod container.
2. Pour 3 tablespoons of water into the holes in the Gro-Pod container. Watch the Gro-Mix expand!
3. Use the planting stick to stir the Gro-Mix.
Get SET: Plant Your Seeds
1. Using the planting stick, plant 4 to 5 seeds in each Gro-Pod container.
2. Cover the seeds with a thin layer of Gro-Mix.
3. Insert a plant stake into the Gro-Mix near the edge of each Gro-Pod container.
4. Place the Gro-Pod containers into the Terrarium.
The Gro=Mix will turn lightly brown when it is dry and needs water. Remove the lift-off Terrarium lid and pour a small amount of water in the center of the Gro-Pod containers. Dark brown Gro-Mix needs no more water.
When the seedlings grow 3 inches tall or have sprouted their second set of leaves, it is time to transplant them. For best results use Miracle-Gro® Potting Soil or Miracle-Gro® Garden Soil.
1. To transplant into the base of the Terrarium, pour Miracle-Gro Potting Soil into the base.
2. To remove the seedlings from the Gro-Pod, circle the planting stick around the outermost edge of the Gro-Pod container to loosen the contents. Turn the Gro-Pod container upside down into your hand and gently tap the bottom of the container until the seedlings slides out into your hand.
3. Carefully plant the seedling into its new location.
Safety Tested.
Gro-Mix is non-toxic
Conforms to ASTM F963
0.03 - 0.03 - 0.03

Stonehenge, the iconic prehistoric monument on the edge of Salisbury plain, Wiltshire. The stones have been here for over 3500years and many of them were transported over 160 miles from the Preseli Hills in South West Wales.
This point on the path is about as close as you an actually get to the monument. There's that guy in yellow again...
Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights. In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states. Text by Steve Smith.

SPOILER ALERT: 2012 is nearly over and will go down in history as one of the most twisty turny years for movies in recent memory. It felt like every week played host to a new blockbuster we lived in fear of having spoiled for us. When we finally caught them, they blew our minds with a big third act reveal or a death we just weren't ready to handle. Then there was the week after: were we allowed to talk about it? Who didn't see it already? Who doesn't know?!?
Looking back, here are the juicy tidbits from 2012 that had our heads spinning and our mouths zipped, to ensure that no one out-of-the-know was spoiled:
The Devil Inside: No Ending, Just a Website
January's first movie and modest horror hit The Devil Inside was met with a reasonable backlash when it attempted to continue the spiritual madness on the web. The film concluded with a nightmarish car attack, the invisible ghost jumping from human to human in a fury of violence. Then it just stops, cutting to black and flashing a URL: www.therossifiles.com. 2012 started with an enormous "WTF" moment that people couldn't wait to spoil.
The Grey: The Big Wolf Fight (or Not?)
The trailers for The Grey promised the ass-kicking Liam Neeson we are now familiar with, courtesy of Taken, fighting off a pack of wolves. That rules! But the big spoiler for The Grey is actually what isn't there. Joe Carnahan's film was really an introspective drama about man vs. nature, and the conclusion ended before the epic wolf punching fight even began. Suitable for the tale Carnahan was telling, but anyone looking for a canine brawl who found out the real story beforehand may have had the movie spoiled for them.
Chronicle: Steve Bites the Dust
When Steve (Michael B. Jordan) quite literally takes to the skies to check in on his troubled pal Andrew (Dane DeHaan) he finds out the hard way that his powers don't include the ability to not get struck by lightning. His jarring, shocking death alters the course of the movie, and sends a guilt-ridden Andrew down a very dark path.
Mirror Mirror: Sean Bean Actually Survived a Movie!
Sean Bean dies in everything. There's even video proof. So when the British actor bites the dust in the beginning of Mirror, Mirror, it was business as usual. Color us shocked when the evil dragon plaguing the kingdom and secretly controlled by the Evil Queen turns out to be the King. http://youtu.be/zEhtsgu6bJg
The Cabin in the Woods: The Entire Conceit of the Film
Drew Goddard and Joss Whedon's latest creation was sold as your typical horror movie. A few kids head to the family cabin, stumble upon a room full of suspicious artifacts, and without too much delay, are attacked by a family of undead rednecks. But from frame one, it's apparent Cabin in the Woods is anything but. Behind the scenes of the gruesome events are a team of technicians who… well, maybe it's best to just see this one.
The Raven: The Fanboy Did It
When he's not screaming "EMMMMILLYYY!" at the top of his lungs, The Raven's Edgar Allen Poe (John Cusack) uses his literary knowledge to hunt down a serial killer who has kidnapped his one true love. When the mystery is finally solved, the "big reveal" is more a surprise that the exhausting thriller is finally coming to an end. Turns out, the guy who imitated Poe's stories to kill of his victims was just one of Poe's co-workers who was really into reading. An autograph wasn't enough?
Men in Black 3: Oh, So That's What Happened to Will Smith's Dad
Time travel allowed Men in Black 3 to call back the colorful, kooky alien designs of '60s era sci-fi, but it also allowed them to answer the question no one was wondering: whatever happened to J's dad? Turns out the former military man was murdered by the alien who J pursued back in time to the first Apollo launch. During his escape, he murders J's dad, a young J left behind to be comforted by — you got it — young K.
Prometheus: Weyland Is on Board and Vickers Is His Daughter for Some Reason
One of the major complaints against Prometheus was that Ridley Scott's Alien prequel didn't answer any of the big questions it set out to uncover. Who were the Engineers? Why did they create human life? What was that whole black goo thing about? Prometheus leaves it ambiguous, but it does throw in some twists for those clinging for "answers." For instance, it turns out David the Android was actually following the orders of Peter Weyland, the super old founder of Weyland Corp. who joined the crew in hopes of finding eternal life. And Vickers (Charlize Theron) is revealed to be his daughter! Why? C'mon, do you want everything to be so clear cut?!
That's My Boy: Leighton Meister Is Screwing Her Brother
No one walked into Adam Sandler's R-rated comedy expecting a revelation, but That's My Boy packed a surprise gag that knowing in advance would certainly lessen the blow. Suspecting that his son's fiancée Jamie (Leighton Meister) is cheating, Donny (Sandler) follows her during a routine night out. What he discovers is shocking even for the foul-minded: Jamie is sleeping with her brother Chad.
Brave: The Plot of the Movie… Revealed!
A well-constructed mid-movie twist or a bait and switch? Brave's big twist halfway through Pixar's Scottish fairy tale feels like an entirely different beast: Merida is a princess desperate to live a life in opposition to her overbearing parents, full of adventure. Then Brave takes a literal turn when her Mom actually becomes a bear. The filmmakers behind Brave insisted it was a big spoiler, but in the end, what couldn't be revealed was enough of a twist to deserve a stand alone movie.
Savages: No, It Actually Happened This Way
Oliver Stone has never shied away from a hefty injection of style, but the finale of his latest nearly ODs. A frantic shootout between a drug cartel and the duo of hunky growers and their shared girlfriend (Taylor Kitsch, Aaron Johnson, Blake Lively) ends in a blood bath — just like it did in the book. And then, through the magic of voice over, it undoes it all. Lively's narration reverts the action back to the beginning, with the feds arriving just in the nick of time. WHAT?!?!
The Dark Knight Rises: Comic Book Name-Dropping Out the Wazoo
Christopher Nolan never felt an obligation to the comic book origins of Batman, taking liberties with character origins and picking bits and pieces to suit his needs, but this year's The Dark Knight Rises was a cornucopia of fan service, all working to various degrees of success. The revival of Liam Neeson as Ra's Al Ghul, Marion Cotillard as his daughter Talia (who was actually the kid in the pit prison!), and the reigning champ of 2012 fan service, the reveal that Joseph Gordon-Levitt's John Blake character is actually named "Robin." Three heart attacks later, we can go back and assess, but in the moment, it was a spoiler lover's heaven.
ParaNorman: A Little Dead Girl Controls the Zombies, Who Hanged Her For Being a Witch
Yes, this is the spoilery conclusion of a stop-motion animated film aimed at children. Which is what makes ParaNorman great. After outrunning a hoard of zombies, Norman takes a second to figure out why the zombies are attacking. Turns out the undead Puritans aren't trying to hurt people, they just want Norman to read their controller, the ghost of a little girl who they sentenced to death way back when. Agatha was a medium, so she was sentenced to death. You could see how that would make a gal a little upset. ParaNorman ends with an emotionally complex conclusion and one of the biggest surprises of the year.
Looper: The Angsty Kid Has Superpowers and Might Be an Evil Crime Lord from the Future
Old Joe kicked and punched his way back in time in hopes of killing off future crime lord "The Rainmaker." Turns out — surprise! — his own murderous rampage may have actually been the cause of The Rainmaker (oh, the wonders of time travel logic). We spent a good deal of time wrestling with this idea, but the kid Young Joe encounters when he takes refuge on a local farm turns out to be telekinetic (double spoiler!) and very, very irritable.
Skyfall: The Bond Universe Resets Itself
When Casino Royale stripped Bond of its recognizable parts and took the path of a dark, gritty reboot, audiences thought the 007 series would never look back. Not so thanks to the crafty works of Skyfall director Sam Mendes, whose love for the old days of Bond ushered in a reintroduction of the early movies' ensemble. We got Q back, but the big spoiler was the death of Judi Dench's M and the reinstatement of a male headmaster, along with the reveal that Mi6 agent Eve is the beloved Moneypenny. Familiar faces with modern twists.
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 2: Lots of Familiar Faces Die, But It's OK Because It's Only a Vision!
Similar to Savages (and better yet, the little seen Nic Cage film Next), The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 2 sent Twihards into a twizzy when it changed up the established ending, substituting the novel's anticlimax for an all out war. The Cullens and the Volturi launch into a violent battle and characters that survived the book were suddenly being decapitated. And then in a flash — courtesy of Alice's psychic visions — the action snaps back to before the fight, Aro having witnessed the battle in a premonition. It took until the final ten minutes of the movie for audiences to actually catch their breath.

Game 100: Nats at Dodgers
Jul 23, 2011, 8:51 PM EDT
US Presswire file photo
Tom Gorzelanny faces Ted Lilly tonight at Dodger Stadium.
Behind a couple of surprising home runs (John Lannan's two-run shot, Jerry Hairston's grand slam) and some impressive pitching from Lannan, Sean Burnett, Tyler Clippard and Drew Storen, the Nationals won last night's series opener against the Dodgers, 7-2. In order to make it two in a row tonight, they'll need a similarly strong performance from starter Tom Gorzelanny, who has plenty of incentive when he takes the mound tonight.
Gorzelanny had to depart his last start in Atlanta in the third inning after spraining his ankle in a collision at the plate with Braves catcher Brian McCann. Whether there's any lingering effect remains to be seen. The left-hander also has some pressure on him to perform given the likely addition of Chien-Ming Wang to the Nats' rotation in the next week. If another starter (ie. Jason Marquis) is traded, Wang could take over that spot in the rotation. If not, someone is going to have to get bumped, and Gorzelanny would be a candidate for demotion to the bullpen.
Fellow lefty Ted Lilly starts tonight for the Dodgers, facing a Nationals lineup that has struggled against southpaws this season. They're hitting just .219 with a .651 OPS against lefties, as opposed to .242 and .691 against righties.
I'm going to be out most of the evening, but I'll try to insert the lineups here once they're posted. Enjoy the game and the conversation…

IMO, the problem is not so much with the pitching staff Rizzo has assembled, it's with how Davey is using it. silly word is "exces" which is what we had last night of wild pitches.
- Anonymous - Jul 24, 2011 at 2:41 PM
Great unwashed your right. I was kinda holding on hope for that Wcard butttttttt I see I was just dreaming. As a Skins Nats Wizards fan I am just a very frustrated person. HAHA carry on.
- Gonat - Jul 24, 2011 at 2:52 PM
NatsLady, I agree with you. SteveM brought up defining roles in the bullpen and knowing them and also bringing Balester back to put Detwiler in as the 7th inning set-up pitcher. I thought Davey started to define roles better this weekend and then failed to use common sense when you have a pitcher (HenRod) that has totally lost the strike zone. I think HenRod bounced 5 balls in the 7th inning before throwing that WIN killing WILD pitch.Sure, Gorzo pitched a lousy game. He didn't have it and Zim on 2 occassions didn't help with his fielding.It just stinks to score 6 runs and hold the lead to the 7th and lose it. That is where this team had been so good.I thought Detwiler did a great job. Matteus had a great 8th inning. Burnett did his job. Is it time to just use HenRod for a couple of batters? I say bring back Balester as the long-man and move Detwiler to 7th inning set-up and send HenRod back to Syracuse or DFA Burnett.
- Drew8 - Jul 24, 2011 at 3:04 PM
The person with the Oslo tag is of course right about perspective.Brutal losses just seem a bit more brutal at 1:30 in the morning. After eight hours of sleep it's easier to find the better angels of our nature. Look, I know the Nats are not a playoff team this year, but now that they're finally hitting, I hate to see them squander early leads.My new day's resolution: If it's after midnight and Henry Rodriguez comes into the game turn off the TV and go to bed. If it's before midnight, read a book.
- Gonat - Jul 24, 2011 at 3:11 PM
NatsLady said… Put me in the Rizzo camp.1) Willingham and Dunn: Rizzo clearly went for youth over aging sluggers. That doesn't always work out, but that was his plan and he stuck with it. With Dunn, he may have waited too long, but he was probably hoping Dunn would go for fewer years. 2) Greinke: Let's think back. JZimm was coming off surgery. Espy was a prospect, and Storen, though he was clearly going to be good, was not enough to get Greinke. Everyone was clamoring, "get an ace, upgrade the rotation". Yes, we dodged a bullet, but that was only in retrospect.3) Nyjer should have played winter ball as he was asked to do. I miss him, but I've watched him misplay several balls in CF, and he still has no arm, and he still bashes into catchers. July 24, 2011 10:14 AM ______________________________1) He was right to trade Willingham. He just made a lousy trade.2)JZim pitched in 2010 and threw in his 2nd start back one of the most dominating 6 inning games in Nats (short) history. I am sorry if some people can't see the forest for the trees. 2 years of Greinke vs. 4 more years of JZim? I think even straight-up Greinke for JZim would have been a lot. Espinosa was a prospect and he showed us last year that he can play and would certainly be a Gold Glove quality player. Not sure if he could adjust to MLB pitching so he wasn't a sure thing and still isn't but could you imagine 2011 without him? Storen is an Ace in the 'pen. Enough said.3) Nyjer wanted out of Washington, clearly. He should have been traded in November or December when he wouldn't do Winter ball and not traded a couple days before Opening Day when he was given away for next to nothing.NatsLady, you can spin it any way you want to. A GM's job (and his large staff) is to PREDICT the future based on their special knowledge as a scout, statistics guru, and master planner.
- sjm308 - Jul 24, 2011 at 3:17 PM
Great analysis from all of you!So the jury is still out on Rizzo as he has made both good and bad trades – thanks Gonat for putting it in perspective – I guess I am just upset about the black and white statements like We should still have Willingham. I guess it really was not a good trade even though a trade should have been made. Nyger still has a decent batting ave. but I think I read another negative article about fan interaction just last week. We certainly did not need his attitude here for another year, just wish we could have gotten a little more for him.One thing I am sure of – Rizzo beats the heck out of "Mr. Leather Pants/Segway Man"

@JaneB, thanks for the absolution. I know I abandoned ship, but it sounds like I should be happy I missed the last couple innings.
- Wally - Jul 24, 2011 at 3:40 PM
Still not sure why everyone bashes the Willingham trade. Willingham is a good guy, by all accounts, and a reasonable player with some pop and OBP skills, but limited defensive skills and someone that can't be relied upon to play a full season. I am just not sure why people think that translates to a player that brings back a high quality prospect. Rizzo turned that into a reliever with high end skills with current value and high upside. HRod is actually having a fine year. ERA around 3, but he has gone through stretches of consistent quality outings followed by a complete blow up like last night that inflates his ERA. I think, for instance, his ERA was below 2 just a week or so ago. This is a guy that every team in the league would make room for in their bullpen, because he mostly holds his own right now, and he has the chance to turn in to a lights out, high leverage reliever. I think that is a fair return for the Hammer.In general, I do think the jury is out on Rizzo's ability to build a team through trades. My biggest concern is that when he gives up on player, he just wants them gone quickly for whatever scrap is available (the trade version of when he cut Cabrera and said 'I just got tired of seeing him pitch'). Hanrahan is the most glaring example.But this one was fine, imo. And I still can't believe that Rizzo was willing to put JZimm in the Greinke trade – I know that is the perceived truth, but we really don't know (and will probably never know). It just doesn't make sense that he would do it when JZimm was the second best pitcher we had, and pitching is what he is trying to build.
- Joe Seamhead - Jul 24, 2011 at 3:46 PM
I can't believe how many of us are already throwing Henry under the bus. This is still a pretty young kid, with a great arm, very raw, missed almost all of spring training, has had a few very good appearances. I'm not saying that he's going to be the Nolan Ryan, but it's a bit early to give up on him.As to the Willingham trade being a mistake, give me a break. In addition to not being very durable, he is an outfielder, with at best a fair arm, that gets lousy jumps, and runs poor routes to the ball, and that can't consistently hit anything on the outside half of the plate. Like Adam Dunn, he seems like a good guy, but he's just a good enough player to lose with.
- natsfan1a - Jul 24, 2011 at 3:46 PM

- Gonat - Jul 24, 2011 at 3:52 PM
Wally, everything you say about Willingham is right and I have said that a dozen times. Every time I write about the lousy trade I'm not going to rehash all of Josh's shortcomings like injury prone, falls off later in the year, doesn't play great defense, not great 1st to 3rd, etc. I say he had to be traded just was a lousy trade.Still, you don't trade a high OBP guy like that for a reliever like HenRod. HenRod's WHIP stinks by the way.
- sjm308 - Jul 24, 2011 at 5:02 PM
I have said this before but it seems to me that HRod has a huge upside and if Davey would just stop using him for more than one inning as he gains confidence I think we will have something valuable. I also don't think its a done deal that Brown is a total bust. He is still young and his defensive skills have not regressed. If, and its a big if, he can learn to hit then we have a steal on this trade. As it is, its still a trade that had to be made.I liked Willingham but that is not the point, he was just not worth resigning and Rizzo got what he thought was a decent return.Do we think there will be a trade made in the next week? If history holds true, Rizzo will have to blown away to trade Marquis or Livan. The big difference is, we get nothing for them if they stay with us for the entire season and then sign with someone else next year.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Jul 24, 2011 at 5:20 PM
Well put on all three counts, NatsLady. I loved Josh Will while he was here, but he's always hurt and we would have never "discovered" Morse can reach the Gorse as we did in ST.Dodging the bullet is the perfect way to describe the Greinke situation.Nyjer may play himself out of favor in Milwaukee, just as he did in Pittsburgh and here. Guy seems to wear out his welcome. The guy I can't believe is leading the NL in saves is Gascanrahan. He was the Henry Rodriguez of his day here, now he's 30 for 31 in saves, or whatever. I am totally shocked.What I worry about is how our defense has gone south since Riggs left. Desi seems back to Desi, circa 2010.I was a Riggs guy. I think Uncle Davey is purely stopgap. I can't believe they'll let this guy handle Jesus, coming off arm surgery. Davey will burn him out by May. I don't have any sure-fire candidates, but I think we need to go a little younger than Davey. Of course, that's just about everybody this side of Trader Jack McKeon.GYFNG, win the series, salvage the finale, fly home and sweep those freaking Fish. I'm going out Tuesday to explain baseball to three visitors from Slovakia. I won't want to have to explain how Emilio Bonifacio beat us. Again.

Enhancing the Health of the Family
Beyond Survival
Beyond Survival: Integrated delivery care practices for long-term maternal and infant nutrition, health and development It is now well recognized that delivery and the immediate postpartum period is a vulnerable time for both the mother and infant.
During the first 24 hours after delivery it is estimated that 25 to 45% of neonatal deaths and 45% of maternal deaths occur. 1,2 Thus delivery and postpartum care practices that attend to the most serious and immediate risks for the mother (e.g. postpartum hemorrhage and postpartum infections) and neonate (e.g. asphyxia, low birth weight/prematurity, and severe infections) are the most commonly addressed by public health interventions.
Only recently has the fate of the newborn been directly focused upon, since previous delivery care initiatives mainly addressed the health and safety of the mother at childbirth2 while child survival programs tended to concentrate on conditions affecting survival after the neonatal period (i.e. after the first 28 days of life).

Posts tagged FEED bag
SXSW style
Sigh. Awards season is over. No more red carpets, ball gowns, hilarious speeches, or video montages. But wait, what's that? Oh yes, it's festival season! With SXSW, Coachella, and Bonnaroo on the horizon, tartelettes, we're trading in our heels for Chucks, designer gowns for hippie dresses, and big names for soon-to-be-discovered indie darlings.
First up: South by Southwest, Austin's funky intersection of music, film, and tech. Of course, the confluence of new bands, independent film, Austin cool, and tech entrepreneurs makes for a signature SXSW look. And, as more and more fashion companies become tech-savvy, style is becoming formally entrenched in the mix as well. This year, there are even a few talks specifically on fashion on the docket.
So, what does one wear to this uniquely awesome festival? We've rounded up some SXSW basics that every girl should have in her suitcase.
A pair of hipster shades are a must for blocking out that searing Texas sun (and staving off headaches after long nights.) We love the the always-cool Ray-Ban aviator.
Bright skinny jeans.
You'll want outfits that can easily transition from day to night. A pair of candy-colored jeans is an essential item for spring that can go as perfectly with a worn-in band tee as with a sparkly tank and heels. Urban Outfitters has an affordable selection in a rainbow's-worth of colors.
Comfortable flats.
Flats are the name of the game during SXSW. Gladiator sandals and Toms are very cool options; our favorite is a classic Chuck Taylor from Converse.
Wedge heels.
When you do want to dress up a little, toss on a pair of comfy, wedge-heeled booties, like this faux-suede pair from Target.
A statement canvas tote.
This isn't the place for a glamorous clutch. As you're running between talks, screenings, and parties, a cool canvas tote is much better for stashing your iPad, your makeup bag, and other festival essentials. The FEED bag is a cute option that also contributes to a great cause!

Digimon Battle
UPDATE: This game has been shutdown and is no longer available
Digimon Battle Overview
Finally, a MMORPG based on the Digimon Franchise! WeMade Entertainment, the same developer behind such titles as Mir 2, The Legend of Mir 3, and Avalon Heroes have published the game here in North America. Digimon Battle has a turn based combat system and gives players to ability to catch Digimon and use them in battle against evil Digimon. The game is aimed at children and has a classic point-and-click control scheme where the mouse controls movement and combat. Keyboard shortcuts are also used to speed up gameplay.
Takato Matsuki - Likes to draw Digimon and play card games with friends. Not proficient in handling cards, but has an outstanding ability to interact with partner digimon.
Henry Wong - Highly skilled with computers and using cards. He became a tamer to fight against evil monsters.
Rika Nonaka - Very intelligent and highly skilled with cards. She is a bit cold hearted.
Jeri Katou - A new tamer, she tends to be sloppy but has exceptional skill at handling Digimon.
Starting Digimon:
Gigimon - Armed with sharp teeth, Gigimon is capable of taking on much larger Digimon. Its skill is Hot Bite.
Viximon - An elusive Digimon that only moves under moonlight. Its skill is Killer Boulder which transforms Viximon into a boulder and emits a poisonous gas.
Gummymon - A genetically unstable Digimon armed with a solid horn. Its skill is Double Bubble which shoots out bubbles.

Digimon Battle Review
By, Erhan Altay
Digimon, or Digital Monsters, was a popular anime series that followed on the success of Pokemon. While both franchises centered around kids raising monsters as pets, they had vastly different settings. Thanks to WeMade Entertainment, fans of the show now have a real digital world in which to interact with Digimon and other Digimon tamers. Digimon Battle has a turn based combat system which suits the genre well. But it is obvious graphics were sacrificed in exchange for ease of play and broad system compatibility. Was the compromise worth it? Does Digimon Battle do the franchise justice? Let's find out.
Tamers and the Tamed
Digimon Battle went into open beta testing in March 2010 to much fanfare. The publishers quickly opened three servers to meet the oncoming demand. New players must create an account on the official site, but those who have already registered with WeMade for Mir 3 can use their existing account. The client size for Digimon Battle is surprisingly large for a game that looks so old. After the patch, players will see that Digimon Battle is a no-frills 2D MMORPG with a single resolution setting — 800×600. There is an option to play in windowed mode, and a few graphic settings such as shadow, alpha, and 'cardslash' visuals. Each account is given four character slots per server, but players are unlikely to use all of these. Character creation in Digimon Battle is a very simple process; simply select from four tamers and three starting Digimon. Each tamer has a different personality and strength, and each digimon digivolves into different forms.
The Digi Bureau
New players start their journey in the Digital Admin Bureau which is one of the 15 zones that comprise the 'Real World.' Monsters up to level 15 can be found throughout the 'Real World' but harder opponents must be encountered in the 'Digital World' which comprises 20 zones with an additional 6 under development. A tutorial dialogue box will appear and guide players until level 11. Digimon Battle is a pretty simple game so most players will have no trouble figuring things out. One of the more interesting features that could use explanation is the Card system. Players can equip various cards and use them in battle instead of their normal attack or skill. The first card type players encounter is a simple attack card but types such as healing cards can also be found.
Growing Up Digitally
It is possible to pick up a few quests in town, but they're not worth doing since the experience rate is so high. The only exception to this is the level 11 quest located in the second level of the Gateway Dungeon since it gives a special mudfrigimon card reward which is required to travel to the Digital World. Getting to level 11 only takes around 30 minutes, and most of that time is spent walking around looking for high level digimon to battle. Zones are usually very large and towns have only a few key NPCs. Combat is only initiated when a player walks up to wild digimon and right clicks on it. Battles themselves take place on a separate screen with an 'action time battle' system. What this means is that all combatants have a TP gauge that starts empty and fills depending on the speed stat of each digimon. Only when this gauge is full can a digimon act.
Easy Mode
The difficulty in Digimon Battle is definitely on the easy side. As a game tailored for kids, this isn't too surprising. What this means is that NPC controlled digimon don't even get to attack in most battles. There's no auto attack feature either so players have to manually issue either a regular attack, a skill, or a card. In other words, gameplay is reduces to mindless 'grind' within minutes of logging in. Digimon can't use skills until level 6, but do receive 1 skill point per level. Digimon also receive 2 stat points per level which can be distributed among 4 stats: Strength, Con, Dex, and Int. Hovering the cursor over the '+' sign next to each stat reveals the benefits of that stat. Str increases physical attack damage and HP, Con raises defense, HP, and VP (shields), Dex increases speed and dodge rate, and Int raises BattleLevel, VP, and Defense.
Gottcha Catch 'em All!
After hitting level 11, players advance to the rank of 'Rookie' and are able to catch additional Digimon. Players only have three chances to catch a digimon during any given battle, but the odds of success seem to be completely random. Tamers can have up to 5 digimon at a time under their control and must use their main 'partner' digimon to summon the four others into a battle one at a time. Only low level Digimon can be caught and must be leveled up before becoming effective. Fortunately, the experience rate is split between all active digimon so players are free to use their main one to dish out the damage and have their weak digimon share in the experience.
Fast Learner
A fast experience rate combined with super easy gameplay means tamers and their digimon will level up rapidly during the early game. Each digimon has a different key stat which may change as they digivolve. Digimon digivolve at four key levels with each corresponding to a new title: Rookie (level 11), Champion (level 21), Ultimate (level 31), and Mega (level 41.) Experience slows down at 11 to the point where it takes more than a battle or two to level up. The 'real world' area only has monsters up to level 15 so players who want to keep training will have to move to the Digital World fairly soon.
Make it Simple
The interface in Digimon Battle is very simple. The mouse controls movement and combat, though keyboard short cuts are available. The world map displays each zone as a node on the screen and players can hover the cursor over each node to see what NPCs and Digimon can be found there. Players can either manually travel between zones by means of portals, or use a 'Jump Gate' item to teleport instantly. The graphics are on par with other 2D turn based MMORPGs like Zodiac Online, Fairyland Online, Myth War 2 Online, and Wonderland Online. Gameplay is a bit simpler, but the lack of an auto-attack feature is unfortunate. Besides fighting AI, players can challenge each other to duels. In many ways the gameplay in Digimon Battle resembles Pokemon, the AI is just there to grind off of while competitive duels among friends is where the real fun is at.
Worth the Wait?
Digimon Battle might not be the MMORPG some fans had envisioned, but its still a highly playable game that can be enjoyed in short bursts. The graphic style is dated, but it gives the game a Game Boy Advance like feel. The game is a bit light on content, but judging by the Korean version of the game, there's still a lot to be added to the new North American servers. So far Digimon Battle has attracted a large audience, the challenge now is to keep them coming back for more.
Final Verdict: Good
Digimon Battle offers simple gameplay and a simple interface. Tame, train, and battle digimon against wild Digimon and other tamers in turn based battles. The card system adds some variety and strategy to the game, but Digimon Battle is still a simple MMORPG that's likely to mainly interest a younger audience.

Plainsboro Plaza Shopping Center 1/29/2013
Friday, February 01, 2013 10:27 PM
Plainsboro Plaza Shopping Center on Tuesday, January 29, 2013. The Plaza lost its Superfresh grocery store just recently. Now it's even more of a ghost town, which is a bad thing for the shopping center which already has a large vacancy. It's also a bad thing for the new Plainsboro town center, of which the shopping center is a key part. Martin Griff / The Times of Trenton

I know this is not a C++11 feature but are binary literals supported in the IDE?
They are supported in the GCC compiler.
Phoronix: KDevelop 4.3 Does Basic C++11
After spending nearly a year developing the IDE, KDevelop 4.3 is now available. Among the features of this updated program is support for basic C++11...
I know this is not a C++11 feature but are binary literals supported in the IDE?
They are supported in the GCC compiler.
The entirety of KDE 4 is a disgusting mess. Now that Microsoft has jumped onboard the Ahoy-goodtime-fairy-flipping-fart-faster-boxie-cellphone pile, we can all rest assured nobody will want to buy a desktop pc ever again after 2012. Yes indeed Nostradamus predicted the end of the computer because of the smartphone craze.
If you think XP has lasting power then look out, because I predict Windows 7 will stick around for a while. This is good because KDE and Gnome will die out, killed by their own developers.
Just how does this relate to the topic of KDeveloper 4? Well, by golly George it relates to the early days of KDE4. When the preview did exactly the same thing the current version does. ... Nothing but C++.
Yes, C++ -- it's been doing it since the first Preview. No trolls, hold your fire and magic missles there arch mage. Let me swipe with my Mace of blunder +4, afar and wide.
QT4 is still crap. To back that up, it's default theme causes eyestrain. Nothing seems to line up. I'd frankly rather use WindowMaker which by far is more consistent with normal desktop operations.
Even fluxbox with that desktop add on works generally better. Again to tie this altogether, GVim would provide you with a more reasonable development experience: session saving and detectable menus.
X with Emacs started full screen any day....
But what do I know. I could be wrong and I'm just getting old.
over and out
After Qt Creator happened, everything else looks dumb anyway.

Pokemon X FC: 1435-4739-8696 Trainer Name: Evershade
WoW Main
I hate that lion or whatever it is, just look at that derp.
1/10 will not train, unless it gets a decent evo.
FC 2793-2016-8218 - Name: Suoma
Liked the look of Fletchling's evolution, the boombox dragon, and the lobster. But the ones above give me the creeps, the lion looks like a dead stuffed animal, the little thing on the flower is just way too weird, and the larva is kind of "eh."
Overall I like what I've heard at this E3, I still need to warm up to the Fairy-type, but at least they're updating some of those useless plain Normal Pokémon like Jigglypuff.
So replaying leafgreen out of boredom and to get myself that version's legendaries on pearl (cartridge i hoarded about all my rare pokemons). Taking a liking in a little guy i've been ignoring for 13 years :>
Evolved him into Marowak with thick club + focus energy + Bonerang = Massacre, and he's cute ^.^
---------- Post added 2013-06-15 at 02:13 PM ----------
Also i was wondering where i saw Litleo's (the little lion cub they just added) face before...
I might actually break with my Tradition in X/Y. Normally I only use new Pokemon on my first run in a new gen.
But if you can catch wild Ralts, I'm probably gonna go with Gardevoir. Always one of my favorites, and I can't wait to test out its fairy power.
same here, will definitely go for a Gardevoir if it's not too hard to grab
I just hope we'll get a flying normal type that are worth using now, or some good flying type that aint dragon og legendary type.
Anywho, wish it come out now for the summer hehe :P
One reason for WoW decline I often hear is that its an old game and naturally people get bored with it. But TV is much older and people still watch that. Surely if a thing you once enjoyed keept staying fun, you would still use it?
Thats another thing; Dont know if you guys noticed this, but since Gen1 fire pokemons have slowly started to suck ass. Gen5 for instance only had 1 fire type pokemon that was any good (Darminatian, or whatever the name was, that ape pokemon).
So GameFreak got some potential to really make the game more fair. Id love to have a team where I both use grass, fire and water on my team forexample, but mostly it ends up being steel, fightining, dark and dragon really. Edit; Or one elemental team like Sandstorm based teams...Love my stupidly overpowerd Sandstorm team inn my BW2 game <3

Well. According to the leak on Pokebeach, which is most likely true at this point. Fairy is not very effective against fire.
(Fennekin or bust)
It reminds me of Vulpix/Ninetales which is practically my favorite Pokemon
OMFG WARNING!!! Turn down the volume of that video! It gets really loud at the end...you've been warned!

I really like the design of Fennekin too, totally starting with it. It's just so cute, I hope it's evolutions are nice
I liked all 3 from 1st gen, Meganium and Typhlosion from 2nd gen, Blaziken and Swampert from 3rd gen, Empoleon from 4th gen, and kinda sorta mabye a little bit Emboar from 5th gen.

We're gonna win Twins, we're gonna score! We're gonna win Twins, make the baseball soar. Knock out a homerun, give a hip-horray! Cheer for the Minnesota Twins today!!!! ... at least, try to not lose more than 90 games again this year
Well, that didn't work out too well for your boys on Opening Day, did it now Michael? Tigers beat the Twins 4-2! Verlander is the MAN!
If there is no other consolation to this 2013 season, Houston can always say it won its first ever National League game on April 10, 1962 vs. the Cubs (11 - 2) and their first ever American League game on March 31, 2013 vs. the Texas Rangers (8 - 2). Other than that, it appears the Astros will have another lean season but our minor leagues have some great potential players on the horizon. Hope springs eternal. I like the way new owner Bob Crane is going about this dilemma. That is what happens when a previous owner could care less about developing your own players.
Just my opinion.
Hope your favorite team is successful in 2013.
Linda from Michigan and Edward (Zoom) - I see your Tigers if they can remain healthy, tops in both leagues at the end of the World Series.
Blessings to all,

At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
To evaluate the composition of a kidney stone, to help determine the cause of its formation and to guide treatment
When to Get Tested?
When a stone has passed through or been removed from your urinary tract
Sample Required?
A stone filtered from your urine or surgically removed from your urinary tract by a doctor
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Kidney stone analysis uses one or more test methods to examine and determine the composition of a stone from the urinary tract. This is done in order to help identify the cause of the stone and, where possible, to prevent the formation of more stones.
The urinary tract consists of two kidneys, two ureters, the bladder, and the urethra. The kidneys filter wastes out of the blood and produce urine, which is transported from the kidneys to the bladder through tube-like ureters. Urine is eliminated from the bladder through the urethra. This is a continual process of waste filtration, urine production, and elimination.
Commonly called kidney stones, calculi can form in the kidneys and cause problems either because they grow large enough to obstruct urine flow or because they become dislodged or break off and begin to travel from a kidney through the ureter; they can cause temporary obstruction and stretch, irritate, and/or damage the walls of the ureters. This movement can cause abrupt, extremely severe pain that may be intermittent or continuous.
Many stones will eventually pass out of the body in the urine, but some are too large or have too irregular a shape for the body to expel. With very large stones, which typically cannot pass from the kidney into the ureters, and for smaller stones that get into but do not pass through the ureters, some form of treatment is needed. The stone may need to be surgically removed, often using devices that pass through the urethra and bladder to the site of the stone. With some stones, it is possible to use extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. This treatment pulverizes the stone in place using targeted shock waves. The smaller particles and fragments that remain can then pass through the urinary tract.
Stones can develop for several reasons, but the most common is because there is a high concentration of a particular chemical in the urine that precipitates and forms crystals. This can happen when a person produces and excretes an excess amount of the chemical. It can also occur when a person chronically takes in little liquid and has a more concentrated urine because there is less water in it. Depending on how much and what type of material crystallizes and where it forms, a kidney stone may be round, sharp and pointy or irregular with branches (called a staghorn). It can range in size from a grain of sand to bigger than a golf ball.
The composition of the stone depends upon the chemicals present in excess. It may be all one chemical compound or have different chemicals in different layers.
Common types of kidney stones include:
- Calcium oxalate
- Calcium phosphate
- Uric acid
- Struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate) - stones associated with a bacterial infection
These four types make up about 95% to 99% of kidney stones. About 75% of stones will contain calcium. Less common stones include:
- Cystine - stones associated with an inherited excess of cystine excretion
- Drug-related - stones that are associated with drugs such as guaifenesin, indinavir, triamterene, atazanavir, and sulfa drugs
According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, kidney stones are one of the most common urinary tract disorders. In the U.S., about half a million people go to the emergency room each year with kidney stones and about three million visit their doctor.
How is the sample collected for testing?
The doctor or laboratory typically provides a person who has kidney stone symptoms with a clean container and a straining device that has a fine mesh. The person filters all of their urine through the fine mesh. This is necessary because there is no way to determine exactly when a stone will pass out of the body. The person then examines the mesh for any particulates, keeping in mind that stones may be easily visible or as small as grains of sand. If a stone is found, it is placed into the clean container, allowed to dry, and returned to the laboratory or doctor as instructed. It is important not to add anything to the stone, such as tissue or tape, as this can make testing more difficult.
If a person is in a hospital, then medical personnel will filter the urine. With a kidney stone that is too large to pass, the doctor may perform a surgical procedure to remove it and then send the stone for analysis.

Common Questions
Ask a Laboratory Scientist
Form temporarily unavailable
Due to a dramatic increase in the number of questions submitted to the volunteer laboratory scientists who respond to our users, we have had to limit the number of questions that can be submitted each day. Unfortunately, we have reached that limit today and are unable to accept your inquiry now. We understand that your questions are vital to your health and peace of mind, and recommend instead that you speak with your doctor or another healthcare professional. We apologize for this inconvenience.
This was not an easy step for us to take, as the volunteers on the response team are dedicated to the work they do and are often inspired by the help they can provide. We are actively seeking to expand our capability so that we can again accept and answer all user questions. We will accept and respond to the same limited number of questions tomorrow, but expect to resume the service, 24/7, as soon as possible.
