Gaming developers, you have it all wrong. You want to make extra cash? Then stop fiddling with season passes, attack-pants and micro-DLC. Believe it or not, gamers want to get physical like an Olivia Newton John song, with some quality merch. It's worked for Skylanders. It's been a blockbuster tactic for Disney Infinity. And now Nintendo is joining that market with its beautiful Amiibo figures for Super Smash Bros.
Nintendo spent so much energy focusing on Luigi last year, hoping that shifting attention away from the red brother would have a correlating affect on their bank accounts. Surprising almost no one, it did little to boost the sales of Nintendo games and particularly the Wii U. Now Luigi's year is coming to an end - I wonder what the new year will bring.
I've got a soft spot for the Nintendo Direct conferences that pop up every month. They're humble slices of gaming news, stripped off all that Hollywood teaser jazz nonsense, and get right down to business. Nintendo didn't stray too far from their usual conferences last night, but they're certainly taking one or two game characters in unexpected directions.
Virtually a year ago back in January 2013 I posted the first two episodes of Mario Warfare and at the time stated that the acting was absolutely awful.
Nintendo declared 2013 as the "Year of Luigi", with fantastic emphasis on the much loved character. Now they've released a hilarious mocumentary that takes it to another level.
I like the way that Nintendo releases news on their upcoming events. No massive media circuses or teasing, just down to business information, reveals and banter from the big guys in charge of the company. Last night was business as usual then, with quite a few games announced. Here's what went down last night.
I really love how Nintendo does it's press and marketing these days. Instead of going though the press, it does its marketing directly to the consumer, with Nintendo president Satoru Iwata doing near monthly videos to let gamers know what to expect on Nintendo platforms. Yesterday, the company hosted another one; here's the good stuff from Nintendo direct.
Man, Mario gets all the attention; the best mushrooms and even all the girls. That all changes this year, because it's the year of Luigi. That's the overall message from the perpetually delightful Nintendo president Satoru Iwata from yesterday's Nintendo Direct.
Franchises come and go, but the successful ones hang around for many a year, releasing new titles on an annual basis. Or every six months. Or every week, because that's what it feels like some days whenever another Super Mario game pops up. The Italian plumber has been a staple of Nintendo for quite a few years now, carrying the heavy burden of mascot for an entire generation of gamers, with new games popping up constantly. And according to Nintendo, they aren't worried about over-saturating the market with Mario at all.
What happens when you envision all the characters from the Super Mario Bros and Donkey Kong titles as humans and then put them in a movie where they are fighting over a city? Well you get this video from TheGameStation which is 2 parts awesome and 10 parts insane…
CollegeHumor often have videogame themed posts, and most – but not all of them – are great. The latest one, 5 imaginary Facebook status updates and their accompanying comments falls firmly in that "great†category. It manages to nail the characters, playing them to type perfectly. From Mario's disdain at Peach's renewed capture, Tails' pathetic abject adulation for Sonic or Final Fantasy VII's Cloud decidedly emo nature, there's sure to be something to make you giggle.
Before anyone asks, yes I used "Facebook†as a verb, and yes I'm a little upset about it.

What is a weak era or strong era in tennis?

The Tennis Channel is a television station we have in the United States that shows nothing but tennis.

There was no formula for who was at the top. It combined women and men. Therefore you would think they would treat the women with great accomplishments equally with the men but they didn't. I think many forgot about the accomplishments of the great pros pre Open era. So Federer finished first in this list and Laver second.
Actually from my perspective it's amazing to me that Laver finished second. It just shows how his accomplishments have not been forgotten despite the passage of time. People always tend to pick the current men's champion as the greatest. He may be or may not be. Objectively however many of the women could have or should have finished first. When you consider for example that Steffi Graf won over 100 tournaments, 22 majors, a Golden Slam, and had a higher winning percentage than many. All these accomplishments are higher than Federer and yet Federer ranked higher than Graf on this list?? It really doesn't make sense at all that Federer finished first ahead of Graf (and a number of other women like Navratilova) if you are valuing the Women's accomplishments equally with the Men. The obvious answer is that the Tennis Channel List is just a subjective list. I spoke to someone who voted on the list (who actually knows tennis history) and this person thought the list order was ridiculous.

Sunday November 18, 2012
By XU JINGXI
WHEN He Feng was a mathematics freshman at Swarthmore College in the United States, a group of warm-hearted old people in the small town raised US$1,000 for the Chinese stranger to pay for his first piano course, encouraging He's interest in art.
Now He, 34, has taken up the torch to light up the dreams of more than 150 creative minds in China, by building a website where they can display their projects to the public and raise money from supporters.
Each creator sets the project's funding goal, at least 1,000 yuan (RM490), and a deadline of between 15 and 60 days. Fans can put money into the fund the website holds for the creator.
If the project reaches its goal, the website charges 10% of the collected money as commission and delivers the rest to the creator. If the goal is not met, the website waives any fees and will return all the money to the supporters. The project must then look elsewhere for funds.
Demohour.com, the Beijing-based website that He co-founded in 2011, is China's answer to kickstarter.com in the United States, the world's largest crowd-funding platform for creative projects founded in 2009.
He says his goal is to connect niche ideas with their niche market.
"For example," he says, "if only 200 people nationwide like the book you want to write, you can still print it if each of them pays 100 yuan (RM49)."
When He and his co-founders were seeking investors to build the demohour site, some people advised them to set up a group-purchasing website instead because there was a boom in such websites.
"China will be boring if we've got only group-purchasing websites. We want to make China interesting, so we must give it a try even though our crowd-funding website might fail as a business," He says.
The whimsical ideas shown on demohour.com include design, technology, movies, photography, music, publishing, activities, games and travel.
In only 15 days this August, 476 people on demohour.com put up more than 10,000 yuan (RM4,900) to make a gold medal for Chen Yibing, China's Olympic gymnastics defending champion. Chen had to settle for silver on the rings after a controversial scoring at the 2012 London Games.
A high school graduate from Beijing has designed a gesture-recognition app that will let people manipulate a Macbook with their fingers away from the keyboard. They can flip through the albums on iTunes and enlarge a picture by swinging their fingers in front of the screen, just like Tom Cruise does in the movie Minority Report.
Sixty-three people offered a total of more than 4,000 yuan (RM1,965) to buy the app and its matching finger cot, helping the creator pay for the fee to get on the App Store.
"It's ridiculous that China is known by the world for cheap knockoffs while the country has a population of 1.4 billion," says He.
"There is not enough creativity coming out of China because we are not doing a good job to support creative people."
Du Mengjie is one of the founders of dreamore.cn, a Shanghai-based site that stands out from its peers by offering project creators services free of charge.
Such crowd-funding websites, Du says, make it possible to launch an idea without adequate savings, rich parents, eye-catching educational background and work experience. They can also give life to a project that is too small or not profitable enough for venture capitalists.
"It may take a long time to win investment from venture capitalists, and it often involves compromising changes to cater to the investors' demands," he says.
"But people won't regard it as risky to invest an average of 100 yuan (RM49) per person on an interesting idea.
"At the same time, the creator is also guaranteed 100% of the project's intellectual property and his first batch of customers."
The 23-year-old fresh college graduate has a big vision that crowd-funding will change people's lives in the same way domestic online trading giant Alibaba has.
"Its significance is more than making ordinary people's dream come true. It also proves the power of the crowd," Du says.
A new posting on dreamore.cn on Tuesday sought to raise money for the rent and renovation of an apartment where young people can read books and host salons. More than 20,000 yuan (RM9,825) was pledged in 80 minutes.
"It's hard to get people from around the country together quickly to make one thing happen. But a project on a crowd-funding website can accomplish this, once it strikes a chord with visitors," Du says.
For some project creators, the trust and encouragement from strangers matter more than the money.
Jia Yuhao's project of collecting second-hand objects to decorate the public living room for his youth hostel in Lhasa exceeded its funding goal by a bigger margin than any other on Demo Hour.
Jia set a funding goal of 1,000 yuan (RM490), but to his surprise 2,595 fans of the project sponsored 146,400 yuan (RM71,910) in total.
"I had more courage and motivation to overcome the difficulties during the renovation," Jia says. "I feel a sense of duty to perfect the hostel because it's now a dream for 2,595 people."
More than 400 supporters of Jia's project have visited his hostel in Lhasa, and Ran Yongzhe is one of them.
Ran admires the fact that Jia kept supporters informed of progress by posting photos and videos. Jia also started four QQ instant messaging groups, where he and the supporters can discuss the hostel's design.
Ran had such a great time with Jia that he extended his stay from 10 days to 20 days, working as a volunteer at the hostel.
"I don't care about the reward. The room rate is low and I don't need a discount," the 27-year-old says.
"What I value is my participation in making a dream come true." — China Daily/Asia News Network

Tuberculosis kills one person approximately every twenty seconds. MDR-TB, which is characterized by resistance to at least two of the most powerful medicines in today's standard, four-drug regimen for drug-susceptible TB, is of particular concern given the rapid rise in the number of cases throughout the world and the difficulties in treating it. There were an estimated 510,000 incident cases and 130,000 fatalities due to MDR-TB in 2007. Drug-resistant strains are extremely difficult and expensive to treat and novel drugs are urgently needed to fight these deadly strains.
Dr. Mel Spigelman, the president and CEO of the TB Alliance, and Dr. Paul Stoffels, Global Head Pharmaceutical Research and Development, Johnson & Johnson, will discuss this landmark partnership. Dr. Jaime Bayona, M.D., director and founder of Socios En Salud, Lima, Peru, was integral in helping Paul Famer, M.D., Ph.D., establish a pilot MDR-TB treatment program clinic in Peru. As an authority on approaches to the control of MDR-TB, Dr. Bayona can speak first-hand to the urgent need for novel treatments for MDR-TB.

Transparent optogenetic brain implants: Yet another amazing use for graphene October 21, 2014 at 12:32 pm
The most powerful brain implants being built today can record fast electric signals using conductive arrays while permitting light to pass out through them for high-resolution imaging . To take it up a notch, they also can let light in for optogenetic control directly under the implant. Two new studies just published in Nature Communications have the details.
Virtual reality, the death of morality, and the perils of making the virtual ever more real October 10, 2014 at 1:53 pm
As the technology that underpins virtual reality develops and the experiences become increasingly more real, I've been pondering a particularly morbid thought: When will we have the first VR-induced death? Will a realistic rocket launcher blast in Team Fortress 2 or VR version of Silent Hill give you a heart attack? Will a a VR experience be so realistic that you get so swept up in the moment that you run into a wall or jump out a window?
Nobel Prize awarded to scientists for discovering the brain's 'inner GPS' system October 6, 2014 at 9:27 am
2014's Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to John O'Keefe, May-Britt Moser, and Edvard Moser for their discovery of the brain's 'inner GPS' system. The prize revolves around their discovery of place cells and grid cells in the brain that appear to create a cognitive map of every room or space that you've ever explored. As you move around a room or space, a very specific place cell fires — and when you visit the same place again in the future, the same place cell fires every time.

DARPA's tiny implants will hook directly into your nervous system, treat diseases and depression without medication August 29, 2014 at 10:15 am
DARPA, on the back of the US government's BRAIN program, has begun the development of tiny electronic implants that interface directly with your nervous system and can directly control and regulate many different diseases and chronic conditions, such as arthritis, PTSD, inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohn's disease), and depression. The program, called ElectRx (pronounced 'electrics'), ultimately aims to replace medication with "closed-loop" neural implants, which constantly assess the state of your health, and then provide the necessary nerve stimulation to keep your various organs and biological systems functioning properly.

oops, sorry
Wasn't getting updates form some reason.
For frame tube material there is not much practical difference between CREW, DOM, or 4130. CREW and DOM are plain low carbon steels. For a given diameter and wall thickness all 3 have the same weight and stiffness which is the primary factor in frame design. The main material difference is that the 4130 has a higher yield strength than the other 2 but no material should be subject to stresses near yield in normal operation. Crashing is a different story but then again if you crash you should expect your frame to get bent. I think it was Kevin Cameron who said that his riders could not crash in a controlled enough manner to stay under the 4130's yield point so it was a wash.
With that said, I still like to use 4130 material in my frames. I find the higher quality material has better straightness and profile accuracy mainly due to the fact that it is a more expensive product. It does require care to be taken not to use too much heat when welding so has some drawbacks but they are not insurmountable.
For a beginning welder I would recommend using CREW or DOM. There are much less welding related strength and brittleness issues when compared to 4130 and we all must learn to walk before we can run. Once you've got some fab experience under your belt try some 4130. you may like the better accuracy or may consider the additional price to be a waste and stick to mild steel.
Chip in and help!

Jalosjos brods can't run, says Comelec
Poll body reiterates law barring convicts from seeking elective posts
OZAMIZ CITY—Convicts are barred from seeking elective positions.
The Commission on Elections (Comelec) made this ruling on the candidacies of Jalosjos brothers Romeo Sr. and Dominador Jr., citing a law that disqualifies convicts from running for elective posts.
Romeo Sr. is a child rape convict while Dominador Jr. has been convicted of robbery.
Romeo Sr. is seeking to run for mayor of Zamboanga City while Dominador Jr. is seeking to run for governor of Zamboanga del Sur.
In separate rulings on the brothers Jalosjos last Jan. 15, the Comelec said it is duty-bound to declare the two disqualified even "without a petition" because of the Jalosjos brothers' criminal convictions.
Child rapist
Romeo Sr. is a convicted child rapist who has been released from jail due to good behavior while Dominador Jr. is a robbery convict. Both convictions had been affirmed by the Supreme Court.
In the case of Romeo Sr., his 1997 conviction for statutory rape was upheld by the High Court in 2001 while Dominador's conviction by a lower court was affirmed in October last year.
"The commission is under legal duty to abide by the final judgment issued by the judiciary," said the Comelec decisions.
It said under the Omnibus Election Code, "the final judgment of conviction is notice to the Comelec of the disqualification of the convict from running for public office."
No pardon, no rights
Unless granted absolute pardon by the President, persons convicted of criminal offenses cannot even vote.
In the case of Romeo Sr., the Comelec also noted a regional trial court decision denying his petition for inclusion on the voters' list of Zamboanga City, "which is deemed final and executory."
The Comelec ruling on the candidacy of the Jalosjos siblings proved to be a major setback to the former lawmaker's ambitious plan to expand his political influence to the rest of the Zamboanga peninsula.
The Zamboanga peninsula, or Western Mindanao region, is made up of the provinces of Zamboanga del Norte, Zamboanga del Sur, Zamboanga Sibugay and the city of Zamboanga.
Originally based in Zamboanga del Norte, the Jalosjoses' appetite for political expansion started when they and their allies routed and dislodged the Hofer clan from power in Zamboanga Sibugay during the 2010 general elections.
Romeo's son, Rommel, is currently Zamboanga Sibugay governor. Another son, Romeo Jr., is representative of the second congressional district of the province.
His daughter, Svetlana, is currently mayor of Baliangao town in Misamis Occidental which is geographically part of Zamboanga peninsula but is under the political jurisdiction of Northern Mindanao.
Svetlana's bid for the gubernatorial post of Misamis Occidental had been announced but called off.
In parts of Western Mindanao, politicians allied with the Jalosjoses also occupy various elective posts or had filed certificates of candidacy to run in the May elections. Ryan Rosauro, Inquirer Mindanao

Corvette high-performance engines moving to Ky.
Wednesday - 1/30/2013, 6:13pm EST
By BRUCE SCHREINER
Associated Press
BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) - General Motors will rev up engine production at the Kentucky plant that assembles Corvettes.
The automaker announced Wednesday it will build specialty, high-performance engines for the iconic sports car at its Bowling Green assembly plant, shifting the work from GM's Performance Build Center in Wixom, Mich. The transfer will add 20 jobs at the Bowling Green plant, where the work force is nearly 700.
The $3.5 million relocation to Kentucky comes on top of a $131 million investment announced in 2011 to build a new body shop and retool the Bowling Green plant for production of the next-generation Corvette. The all-new 2014 model is scheduled to reach dealers' show rooms by the third quarter of this year.
GM manufacturing manager Arvin Jones said the investments "reinforce our absolute faith in this facility and our unwavering commitment to this community."
"This is the home of the greatest sports car on the planet," he said, drawing cheers from plant workers who filled bleachers at the pep rally-like announcement at the sprawling plant in this south-central Kentucky city.
The relocation is slated for the first quarter of 2014. The announcement was part of a broader consolidation of GM Powertrain engineering sites.
Standard engines for Corvettes will still be made at a plant in Tonawanda, N.Y.
The Bowling Green plant is the only GM site that assembles Corvettes. The Kentucky plant currently does not make engines for the sports car.
"We're going to build a little more of that Corvette right here," Warren County Judge-Executive Mike Buchanon said of the new engine work.
Bowling Green plant manager Dave Tatman said it was too early to estimate how many engines will be built at the Kentucky plant.
GM said previously it planned to expand its work force by 250 jobs as part of the $131 million investment. About 150 of those jobs have been added, and the rest will be filled by summer, Tatman said after the event. The 20 jobs tied to the Performance Build Center are on top of that figure, he said.
The new investment is expected to be another tourism attraction for the city that prides itself as the home of the Corvette.
The Performance Build Center gives engine aficionados a chance to build the engines for their own new Corvettes, under the watchful eyes of plant technicians. It's a hands-on experience that will shift from Michigan to Bowling Green.
"They'll assemble the pistons, they'll assemble the crank, they'll assemble the heads, they'll assemble the intake manifold to it, the exhaust," Tatman said in an interview. "They'll build the whole engine, do all the torques. ... What we want to do is offer the Corvette customer the entire experience."
Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear said the new addition will add to Bowling Green's appeal among Corvette fans who visit the plant and a nearby Corvette museum.
"It will significantly add to the economic growth of this whole region," he said in a video hookup.
Auto production ramped up in Kentucky last year, surpassing 1 million vehicles for the first time since 2007, before the national economic downturn. Kentucky ranked third in car production at 477,000 vehicles last year and fourth in light truck production at more than 548,000, the governor's office said recently.
Kentucky is also home to a Toyota plant at Georgetown, and Ford has two production plants in Louisville.

Picture: Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Osbourne are having a massive clear-out, auctioning off hundreds of items from their three homes in Malibu, Beverly Hills and Buckinghamshire....
Ozzy Osbourne was left amazed when he first met Tony Blair - because the-then British Prime Minister revealed he could never master the guitar riff to Black Sabbath anthem IRON MAN.
The veteran rocker was surprised when Blair, who formed a band called Ugly Rumours in the mid-1970s, confessed all about his inability to play the classic.
Osbourne says, "I met Tony Blair a couple of years ago, and he said to me, 'I was in a band once, and I could never get the riff to Iron Man right.'
"I thought, 'Why are you telling me about Iron Man when there's a war going on (in Iraq)?'"

Group differnt keys from one user
I´m using PGP Desktop 10.
In my keyring I have a lot of keys from differnt persons. And several persons have more than one key.
Is it possible , that there is only one entry for each person and if I "open" the person I can see the differnt keys?
Comments 3 Comments • Jump to latest comment
People can have as many keys as they want/need. They can have as many User ID's on each key as they need for each email address they have, etc. The key can also be signed by anyone who wants to verify that the key belongs to who it is suppose to belong to. Please let me know if this does not answer your question.

I think I understand better. Your concern is not people having more than one key, but you want keys to display in All Keys by person (each listed under one person's name) instead of by key?
The GUI does not currently have a way of doing this, and I'm not sure it is feasible. For instance, keys having the same name in the user ID, may belong to different individuals with the same name; different User IDs on the same key may have different names (what name would the key be under); and any PGP user (including an attacker) can use whatever name in their User ID they wish. These are just off the top of my head, and might be able to be addressed.
However, you can request this as a Feature Request, and if you do, it will receive consideration.
