I thought it was cell shading. I want E.Honda in it.
More pictures.
Honestly I'm not too impressed, the background looks sorta cheap like the way the people look and especially with the way Ken looks. I help but think about SF EX while I'm looking at these screenshots. I''m hoping the trailers will prove my doubts wrong. :/
^ i think that cuz its probably gonna be on the wii too....so they sham everyone else by not making it the best it could be.
1up has the release date as June 15th 2008. I call dibs that it gets pushed back!
^Well it's just been barely announced so I would assume so.
Btw heard this rumor somewhere that they're going to add platforms to make it like smash brothers sorta, but dear god I hope they don't....it'll be horrible! =___='
The more screens I see, the more I dislike. =/
I'll wait until I see it in motion from a side-on view to decide. Those screenshots don't look as good as the first one, but they're really low res and not a good basis to make a judgement from considering none of those screenshots are what we will actually see when we play the game.
I don't think you can judge a gme from screen shots alone, its hard to get the full effect from the game of these alone. =/
Wait till the demo or clips or something. I don't think they will disapoint us on this one.
Well, it's not like I expect it to look like that in the end....just saying those screenshots are horrible. And well ya know, usually screens are supposed to look better every time they release a new one.
He has a point. Maybe the fighting will be really good. It would be sweet if you could kick Chun li top off, like KOF.

More than 35,000 tonnes of waste lies unattended to in city; ESMA Act in force
Garbage clearance and daily sanitation works in the city were badly affected on Monday after the outsourced employees of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) joined the State-wide stir demanding hike in wages and other benefits.
According to the union leaders, the sanitation works were brought to a grinding halt on Monday after more than 24,755 outsourced employees of the civic body went on strike.
All the garbage lifting vehicles remained in the parking yard while workers held protest meets and according to the union leaders, more than 35,000 metric tonne of garbage, that is removed daily from the city, was not attended to.
Bhagyanagar Municipal Employees Union general secretary Vinay Kapoor said all the 16,000 plus workers engaged in sweeping stayed away from their duties along with 2,500 odd workers in the transport wing and another 2,000 involved in malaria work.
GHMC Commissioner M.T. Krishna Babu held a round of talks with the JAC of Trade Unions around noon but it failed to resolve the issue given the State-wide nature of the agitation. "Talks with the government are going on and if something fruitful does not emerge, the strike will continue on Tuesday," Mr. Kapoor said.
During the meeting, the Commissioner appealed to the union leaders not to stop garbage vehicles keeping in view the public health. He also informed them about the GHMC writing to the government on increasing the salaries in proportion to the 10{+t}{+h}PRC recommendations.
Later in the evening, Mr. Krishna Babu held a meeting with department heads and zonal commissioners and directed them to be ready with contingency plan by Tuesday evening. The police was also approached for protection at transfer stations, parking yards and the offices.
The officials were asked to take the responsibility of hiring vehicles such as JCBs, 10 and 25 tonner garbage lifting vehicles basing on the proposed contingency plan and concentrate on areas such as hotels and markets. They have been directed to be in touch with the police and send vehicles in a convoy from transfer stations to the dumping yards.
The ESMA Act is in force and any attack on GHMC properties would be viewed seriously and strict action against the culprits initiated, Mr. Krishna Babu added.

I bought one from PSA for this price during their Christmas sale. Got it a few days ago. I used my friend's prior to buying one and it has some insane accuracy. The one I got from PSA had a few deep dings on the front of the top picattiny rail. Really not too much of an issue for me because I plan on duracoating it, and I actually havent even had the chance to contact PSA yet. I still say if this deal comes up again jump on it.

I ordered Christmas eve. Got it 2 weeks ago. It had a decent ding above the trigger and the case looked like a 500lb peg-legged pirate stepped on it. Other than that and the fact it only comes w 1 10rd mag, im happy.

That is kind of weird though,
That is kind of weird though, that multiple ones would dinged like that. I assumed mine was an anomaly because I've never ordered from PSA before. Maybe they're all dinged hence the discount? My case looked fine so I have no idea how such an odd area would get damaged unless it occurred at the factory. For anyone who just ordered or will order this gun, check it over very closely BEFORE the FFL paperwork is filled out.

Hah! I had looked at buying one of these right before Newtown from my local dealer. They had wanted $1099. I had transferred funds from savings to checking and went in 3 days after Newtown had happened. They then marked the rifle up to $2100. After that I saw the rifle selling everywhere for $1500+ and said forget about it.
At $799 this has lit the fire under my ass to buy again. Spendy mags are the only real downside of this gun.

Since I was born on the 14th of December I'm a Sagittarius.
The zodiac symbol of the Sagittarius is the bow and arrow of the Archer, more often than not a centaur.
Here's some stuff from Wikipedia I copy-pasted:
That's pretty damn rad.Sagittarius is seasonally associated with the transition from autumnal moisture to mid-winter dryness. Because its period indicates a change of season, it is known as a "mutable sign" describing an instinct toward change and an easy ability to modify or adapt to the demands of the environment.
The sign is governed by Jupiter, a planet which is symbolically associated with temperate qualities which loosen, relax and expand. Sagittarius is also linked with the "element of fire," which represents outgoing, action-oriented energy that seeks spontaneous expression.As the mutable fire sign, governed by an expansive planet, the symbolic focus of the sign is connected to the principle of exploration and evolution. Correspondingly, Sagittarians are reputed to be drawn toward travel and philosophy, and to enjoy social contacts, meeting new people and exploring other cultures. They are said to be highly intelligent, broad-visioned, tolerant in their views, mainly concerned with the "big picture" but with little patience for the details.

NoDoz is a popular caffiene tablet that rappers, rock stars, comedians, night owls, college students, excited children on Christmas Eve, and the like use to prevent falling asleep. God didn't need NoDoz to wake Tedashii from his spiritual slumber. He used another person to share the gospel to Tedashii to wake him up.

Advertising never hurts, unless you're selling something illegal.
Deputies apparently stopped this alleged deadbeat dad dead in his tracks.
Looks like the unhinged always binge ... even if it means more lockdown time.
Looks like the only place this dude is going to taste his 15-minutes of fame is on the police blotter.
This student must have been bored stiff in class.

The sizing is so weird. I wouldve expected a higher rise to counter the shrinkage. Youd have to size up 3 for them to fit but I guess all blue owl collabs are like that. Lol wtf at the 28s having a 6.35" hem presoak.

Is it just that the denim stays darker and for fading purposes? Also, after the denim shrinks from the hot soak, is there anything else to take into account before hemming? Thanks again for the knowledge.

The reason why I'm selling them is actually because they're skinny, and I'm trying to phase out of that now lol. It doesn't have to do with the blow out, but I wanted to ask because I wasn't sure if there was a quick fix to it meaning it shouldn't lower the price too much.
And I do see clothes and shoes in all sorts of condition being sold here or on ebay. As long as you disclose stuff I don't think there is anything wrong.
I'll probably start looking at APC new standard.
I'm sorry for coming across as harsh.
I get that vintage jeans from the 40s or something would be worth it; it's just that my jeans rub all over my thighs, and sometimes my balls get sweaty and stuff (I know this happens to everyone, right? right guys?) and of course I wear underwear, but I just can't imagine wanting someone else's jeans that have been worn more. To each their own though.

No, the denim won't stay darker. Essentially you have people that have bought excessively into "dare-I-say-hipster" marketing tools used by modern clothing companies attempting to appeal to that inner desire for simplicity and "the old ways" to somehow suggest that their denim is different from cotton that's been used for over 140 years to make the same pants. Wear them at your leisure, wash them when they're dirty.
The amount of indigo lost (if any) on a preliminary soak is completely negligible and won't affect teh sikk fadez at all. It will tighten up the denim, sort out sizing (be it sanforized or not, either way), and will start you off with a pair of jeans in which you'll be able to tell immediately whether they fit you or not. There is no con here.
After soaking once, they should be good to hem. Enjoy your jeans.
Not soaking is believed to lead to "better" wear, usually meaning higher contrast fades in the lifetime of the denim. This is usually caused by the higher amount of starch in the garment coming straight out of the factory. Through wear (and washing) this starch is lost, making the jeans softer and more pliable. Essentially, they fit better, but that contrasty look can be diminished through excessive washing, where you essentially beat down the denim until they're Costco-wear.
However, keeping the starch in the jeans can be destructive to the fabric. The many cases on the board of crotch blowouts often results from 1) overly tight jeans 2) being worn without washing the fabric. The stiffness provided by the starch works both ways; as they fade and wear more, they literally fade and wear more, often prematurely dying because of the friction in the fabric. When washing your denim, the cotton gets stronger, and can hold up longer. Starched denim will eventually (in very broad terms), wear itself to death.
If you research the boards, there is no real noticeable difference between fades on washed denim or those who follow "don't wash for (insert time-period here)" advice. It depends more on you and your lifestyle what your denim will end up looking like.
Wash your jeans. You don't need to throw them in the washer every day after work, but if they smell, soak them. If you spill stuff, try to spot clean, or wash. Don't stress it.
Hope this helps at all. Basic principles: wash your jeans, but not too much. Less washings over the life of the denim are usually favorable for higher contrast wear. One exposure to water here or there, especially at the outset so as to nail down the fit, is negligible. Have fun - enjoy your denim.

Just bought the deep indigo denim in the 15 oz. from a forum member (thanks, d!) and am wearing it today. This thing is just stiff as can be. And it feels tighter than the same cut in my dirty fade. Having a hard time just putting my wallet in the back pocket. Amazing how just a couple of ounces can have a marked effect. Love 'em though.
Was looking to get some heavier jeans in the future, but I don't know if I can stand the breaking in process.

Size up one if you wear dry, size 2 if you want to hot soak.
You laugh at the small leg opening? You must not realize how many guys out there get their tapered denims tapered even more.
Hey guys. Just got my first pair of N&F Weird Guys, which are my first raw denim jeans ever. Still not sure if I should hot soak or not. I'm a little afraid of the fade being warped down the road after my first wash. Has anyone who decided not to soak noticed warping after their first wash?
Also, the waist is just perfect around my waist. Should I have gotten it tighter to anticipate stretching?

They are definitely sanforised. I've just read on here that after the first wash people have experienced their honeycombs shifting up their legs or something.

There's some pics on superfuture if you want to dig through the N&F thread there. I just got a pair of these too. How have they broken in a month down the road? Still slubby and really rigid or have they soften up some?
They have gotten soft, they have some areas that are still somewhat stiff. I love the texture.

APSWREI will designate 16 junior colleges as Residential Magnet Schools from the academic year 2013-14
The Andhra Pradesh Social Welfare Residential Education Institutions Society (APSWREI) has decided to designate 16 of its junior colleges as Residential Magnet Schools from the academic year 2013-14.
This is to prepare the economically deprived students for various entrance tests.
Fourteen of these schools at Srikrishnapuram in Visakhapatnam, Tamarapalli in Srikakulam, Kotturu in East Godavari, Kuntamukkala in Krishna district, Chillakur in Nellore, Cheemakurthi in Prakasam, Chinnatekur in Kurnool, Kurugunta in Anantapur, Madikonda and Jangaon in Warangal, Narsingi and Chilkur in Ranga Reddy, Mahendra Hills and Shaikpet in Hyderabad, will offer long-term coaching for Eamcet, Iseet and Neet, while two at Ibrahimpatnam and Gowlidoddi in Ranga Reddy district will provide the same for CA and CPT.
Admission into these schools will be through entrance test.
The schools will have better teacher-student ratio, hybrid model of teaching and coaching, extensive use of technology, micro schedules, and rigorous testing, apart from sports, games, and inspirational lectures, a press release from APSWREI said. Efforts are being made to improve facilities in these schools under the SC sub-plan, the note said.

Serena Tie-In (Paperback)
The year is 1929, and newlyweds George and Serena Pemberton arrive in North Carolina to create a timber empire. Although George has already lived in the camp long enough to father an illegitimate child, Serena is new to the mountains--but she soon shows herself to be the equal of any worker, overseeing crews, hunting rattlesnakes, even saving her husband's life in the wilderness.
Together Serena and George ruthlessly kill or vanquish all who fall out of their favor. But when Serena learns that she will never bear a child, she sets out on her own to kill the son George had without her. Mother and child begin a struggle for their lives, and when Serena suspects George is protecting his illegitimate family, the Pembertons' intense, passionate marriage starts to unravel as the story moves toward its shocking finale.

Top 5 Most Bizarre and Absurd Registered Religions
Subscribe to our newsletter
Putting upon any religion to your children is abuse. Even though there are many strange and absurd religions, I decided to present you a few of the most extremist and registered ones. Read this text with hold and feel free to take upon an interpretation that suits you best. I have no intention to out upon anybody any of these religions or some of their beliefs and ideas. My only intention was to show in what kind of world we live today, and what strange thinks do people all over the world believe in.
This is the most popular religion of this kind and the most people have heard about it. She is probably best known for its absurd alien beliefs. 75 million years ago, there was an alien galactic ruler named Xenu who was in charge of 76 planets in our sector of the galaxy, including planet Earth, whose name at that time was Teegeeack.
Xenu realized over-population and came up with an idea how to save the world.
Xenu's made fleet of DC8-like spaceships then flew to planet Earth, where the frozen people were dumped in and around volcanoes in the Canary Islands and the Hawaiian Islands. When Xenu's Air Force had finished dumping the bodies into the volcanoes, hydrogen bombs were dropped into the volcanoes and the frozen space aliens were destroyed.
However, Xenu's plan involved setting up electronic traps in Teegeeack's atmosphere which were designed to trap the souls or spirits of the dead aliens. When the 13.5 trillion spirits were being blown around on the nuclear winds, the electronic traps worked like a charm and captured all the souls in the electronic, sticky fly-paper like traps.
These souls inhabited the bodies of humans and continued to live within.
Maybe this religion wouldn't be so popular if there wasn't for our beloved Tom Cruise which decided to go crazy and accept this belief. A group of Scientologist from Germany is under constant surveillance. Should we really believe that people are aliens? This religion is absurd but not as much as the following ones are.
Jedi Religion - Jediism
The Jedi Church believes that there is one all powerful force that binds all things in the universe together. The Jedi religion is something innate inside everyone of us, the Jedi Church believes that our sense of morality is innate. So quiet your mind and listen to the force within you!
I suppose that they must have lightsabers and robes in their religious equipment.
Now, this doesn't sound that bad, because most of the religions in the world are founded on the belief in some supreme power in the Universe, but only Jediist based their beliefs on Star Wars SF movie. Insane?
The Church of Ed Wood - Woodism
First thing that you see when you enter their web site is a pop up that says: "To answer your first question - yes, we're totally serious."
They are an internet church that practices Woodism. Woodism is a pop-culture-based religion created in 1996 by Reverend Steve Galindo. They follow the late cult director Edward D. Wood Jr., and they look to him as a savior. At The Church of Ed Wood they use Ed and his films to inject spirituality into those who get little fulfillment from more mainstream religions like Christianity. By looking at his films and his life, they learn to lead happy, positive lives. We strive for acceptance of others and of the self.
This religion is registered and official. Woodists at their gatherings always dress up as opposite genre and indulge their desires, because Ed Wood loved transvestites and engaged them in his movies. There is always a lot of alcohol at these gatherings and I suppose orgies until dawn. Interesting concept, isn't it?

This is tightly capacity-controlled. We needed 6 tix and could only buy 5 on the site. Not possible to connect by calling in advance to see if 6th person could attend. Others in same situation. Refusal to allow the 6th to enter was handled indelicately by an organization seeking community support. Since I'm the one that sat in the car as the others toured I cannot opine on the content.

My granddaughter wanted to see the sand cat and the cats from the videos, and they were not the cats we saw on the tour, she was very disappointed, we drove over two hours to get there and it was very expensive and a very short tour. The cats we saw were very old and very inactive, and were not the ones that she watches on the videos from there. When the tour was over I had to ask about the sand cat named canyon, from the video, and we were informed that he had died!! she was very disappointed and very misled.

We booked the children's tour to take our grandkids to see Big Cat Rescue. Since there are only TWO times to do this (12:00 noon on Sat. or Sun.) we figured the tour would be geared towards the children. Unfortunately, the guide talked WAY too long about each animal, how they got there, and various other information that the kids didn't care about. 15 minutes per animal stop is too long for small children. When I complained to one of the interns, I was told that they have to speak to all ages on tours. Well, then why have a children's tour??? Let the others go to regular tours. It moved too slowly and the children eventually lost all interest. I was very disappointed.

This is a great way for kids to learn of the problems with society regarding humans and our inability to respectfully co-inhabit this planet with other species. Things like the circus, the fashion industry, and even making large cats pets seem like harmless and even good ideas, but it is just not humane to keep these animals pent up, chained up, or crammed into tiny habitats.
I was very impressed with the knowledge I gained form this experience.
- Do I have to purchase tickets in advance?
- Advance purchase is required, and tours do sell out quickly. To maximize your chances of getting the day that you prefer, please book well in advance! Tickets can be purchased online or over the phone with a Visa, Mastercard, or American Express.
- Is there an age limit?
- Children of all ages are welcome to attend. Ticket prices are 19.00 for children under the age of 10 and 36.00 for ages 10 and over. Children of all ages must pay for a ticket.
- Do you have strollers?
- We do not provide strollers and our paths are earthen, so they can be very difficult to push unless they are made for rough terrain.
- Can I bring food or toys for the cats?
- No, our diet is specific to their needs and we do not allow foods to be given to the cats that have not been approved by our vet and maintained under the most stringent quality controls. We do not give our cats toys that could cause harm if ingested so we do not permit toys from outside our own preselected vendors.
- Can I take pictures during my tour?
- YES! You are welcome to take photos and / or videos during your tour.
- Do I have to stay with the group, or can I wander?
- The only way to see the cats is on a guided tour, so you will not be able to wander away from the group.
- Are there restrooms?
- Yes, but we strongly suggest that you go before you get here because we have limited facilities and are on septic systems which cannot handle a lot of volume if there has been recent rain. There is a McDonald's right at the corner of Easy Street.
- What if it rains?
- The tour will still go out in a light rain as long as there is no lightning. If it is thundering or pouring rain, we may try to wait it out, or will offer a refund, or rescheduling.
- Can I bring my pet?
- No.
- Is there a charge for parking?
- Parking is always free and there is plenty of it except for our busiest times in Nov, Dec and March. During these busy times it is tight, but we will help you park at no additional fee.
- Are you ADA compliant?
- If you are unable to walk for two hours, we have golf carts available for $10 extra, per person riding. Our paths are dirt, so wheel chairs are hard to push, but scooters do well. There are no seats along the tour paths.
- How do the golf carts work? Are they offered on every tour?
- On some tours (but not all), we offer seats on a golf cart for guests who have difficulty with mobility. Each cart can hold 3 guests plus the driver. The cart will follow the tour guide closely so that guests can hear the narration. Depending on different circumstances, these seats can sometimes be booked in advance, but otherwise they are first come-first serve.
- Do you offer gift certificates?
- Yes! Gift certificates are available and they make perfect gifts for holidays, birthdays or any other occasion! To purchase a gift certificate please click on the "Gift Certificates: Purchase" link in the box above.
- What does the Big Cat Rescue Release and Hold Harmless Agreement state?
- The Big Cat Rescue Release and Hold Harmless Agreement states that all buyers understand and agree to 1.) the potential dangers associated with attending Big Cat Rescue and the rules in place to prevent such dangers from occurring and 2.) the Release and Hold Harmless Agreement, which states that Big Cat Rescue cannot be held responsible for any harm, injury or damage taking place at Big Cat Rescue. Please visit https://www.votervoice.net/BCR/campaigns/30112/respond to view the agreement in its entirety.
Refund/Rescheduling Policy
- Non-refundable, can be rescheduled with 24 hours notice.
- Once purchased, tickets cannot be refunded. You may reschedule your tickets (subject to availability) only if you do so at least 24 hours in advance.
Weather Policy
- Activity may be cancelled due to severe weather.
- The activity usually runs in light rain and other moderate weather conditions, but the seller may cancel the activity up to an hour before the start time in the event of severe or unsafe weather conditions. If the seller cancels the event, ticket-holders will be allowed to reschedule tickets (subject to availability) or receive credit for a future event.
Other Policies
- There is no smoking allowed at Big Cat Rescue.
- We do not allow smoking at Big Cat Rescue, except in the parking lot.
- All participants must agree to the Big Cat Rescue Release and Hold Harmless Agreement.
- By purchasing tickets you are agreeing to the Big Cat Rescue Release and Hold Harmless Agreement, which appears in its entirety at https://www.votervoice.net/BCR/campaigns/30112/respond. The waiver web address also appears on your e-ticket if you would like to review the waiver later.
