Our vision is that one day we'll have a more compassionate, wise and effective world, made possible because we've been able to successfully apply and integrate innovative approaches towards (a) learning and creating, (b) mentoring for girls, (c) engagement of mothers, (d) community mobilization and (e) societal impact.
We seek to:
- Learn about, understand, and apply in a community setting, open and freely available to the public, and develop a model for reiteration and scalability of same, best practices for educating young minds that empower them for the world in which they live;
- Produce learning events that apply innovative education ideas through mobilization of girls, mothers, families and community members who desire to be part of and/or contribute to this effort;
- Provide a mentoring program for girls who seek an outlet for their creativity and social empathy and a place to hone their leadership potential;
- Engage mothers as role models through programs and experiences that support mothers' parallel learning with their daughters and strengthen the mother-daughter relationship; and
- Foster an interdependent community that supports risk-taking, collaboration, creativity and innovation in pursuit of the above.
Our events are free and open to the public, though advanced registration is required. Click here to view a list of our past events on Eventbrite.

I just wish it would hurry up and happen, but I have a feeling it won't be until their next earnings call in a couple of 3 months.
In a perfect ATi world that would happen. But Nvidia's market share is still growing faster than ATi's, then Intels share grew about the same as ati's.............. *cough*
But i also think that this 'home multimedia' crap market is gonna open up soon. Eg set top boxes that do stuff like the ps2 (psx). And Tivo's etc.
Truthfully i do think Nvidia and ATi will have a hard time convicing eg. Tivo to buy their Expensive chip, compared to the cheep ones they have been useing that got the job done.... to an extent.
Meanwhile, i could forsee this in the future
ATi "Yeah, our chips can be used in a varity of devices, we support all OS's"
Some Company "Great, what ones?"
ATi "Microsoft Windows 98, Microsoft Windows98SE, Microsoft Windows ME, Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows XP! Im sure your set top box uses one of them right?"
Some Company "*Cough*Cough*"
Intel i7-2600K, Corsair 8Gig, Corsair H100, Corsair 650D, Corsair HX750, ATi 6970, WD Caviar Black 2TB

This week, we speak with an East Carolina University psychiatrist about a new, non-invasive treatment being used for people living with depression.
Depression… it's difficult to treat. An estimated one in 10 adults in the United States suffers from depression, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
"It's a very common disorder and a very serious disorder that has significant disabling features associated with it."
This week on the Down East Journal, we speak with an East Carolina University psychiatrist about a new, non-invasive treatment being used for people living with depression. And, New Bern author Nicholas Sparks hopes this week's release of "The Longest Ride" will become this tenth number one New York Times best seller. Plus, we talk about the mission of the Coastal Coalition for Substance Abuse and Prevention and their public education event set for Monday, Sept. 23rd.
INTRO – A new treatment for depression is now available in eastern North Carolina. George Olsen has more.
We talk to officials with the Naval Hospital at Camp Lejuene about the treatment and interventional services they provide to Marines and Sailors returning from combat.
This Tuesday was the 11th anniversary of the September 11th attacks. 9/11 ceremonies were held across eastern North Carolina to remember the thousands that were lost in terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. This Tuesday, at Lejeune Memorial Gardens in Jacksonville, a couple hundred people turned out for the Patriot Day observance.

Major Office Changes December 2014
In order to deliver the Coastal Communities Fund project the Association has taken on four new members of staff. The Association is also providing office space for the South West Coast Path Team. All this means we need more desks and, in turn, this requires we have more space to hold meetings.
So, in December 2014 we took a two-year lease on a second office unit in Bowker House to be used for meetings and then ordered office furniture to accommodate up to 10 staff in the main unit.
Here's a few photos showing our hard-working staff taking delivery and setting-up ¾ of a ton of desks! Phew!
Debbie taking on the challenge of moving ¾ ton of office furniture. You'll be pleased to learn she was not on her own!
Job done! Kate and Richard (the Landlord) helped as well.

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright discussed U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice's withdrawal from consideration as a Secretary of State candidate in an interview with co-hosts Charlie Rose and Norah O'Donnell that was broadcast live today, Dec. 14, 2012, on CBS THIS MORNING on the CBS Television Network (7:00 AM – 9:00 AM). View the interview in its entirety below!
Below are excerpts from the interview:
ROSE: Do you believe that even though Susan Rice had not been nominated, this became a political suicide-not suicide, but assassination?
ALBRIGHT: I think it's very political and sad, and does not speak well for those who attacked her. I've known Susan since she was 4 years old. I think she's a remarkable person who has served our country in a number of different posts. She was assistant secretary for Africa when I was Secretary of State. I think she's done an amazing job at the United Nations, making very clear what American national interests are and I think she would have been a great secretary of state. She will continue to work at the U.N., where her credibility is very high and she's very close to the President.
ROSE: Would it have been possible for her to overcome the objections raised by Sen. McCain and others?
ALBRIGHT: I have no way of knowing. I think she and the President must have made a judgment-and she said it--that it was a distraction. And there are an awful lot of things going on. I'm really sorry this has happened because she would have been great, and she is wonderful, and she doesn't deserve-as a human being, she does not deserve the attacks that were made upon her that were false. It was really outrageous.
O'DONNELL: There were a couple of unusual things about this. First, she was sent out on the Sunday talk shows to talk about something that was not in her purview, which was Libya and what happened there. That was Secretary Clinton's responsibility about what happened in Libya. And then #2, she was never even nominated to be Secretary of State and she's withdrawing her name. Did she get hung out there by the White House?
ALBRIGHT: Now, let me just say, I think we all know how choices for the Sunday shows are made. When I was ambassador of the U.N., I would go on and talk about different things. So I would not frame it the way you have. It's very hard to figure out what happened here, as to why these very personal attacks. And she had not been nominated. And I think that there was just a kind of avalanche. I find it really sad. I love Washington, and I just don't like what has happened at this point. It's just very unpleasant and sad and something that a very, very good public servant doesn't deserve, or nobody deserves, frankly.

Press release from GlobeNewswire (a Nasdaq OMX company)
Raven Industries Reports Record Fiscal 2013 First-Quarter Results
Friday, May 18, 2012
Raven Industries Reports Record Fiscal 2013 First-Quarter Results06:10 EDT Friday, May 18, 2012SIOUX FALLS, S.D., May 18, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Raven Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq:RAVN) today reported record sales and earnings for its fiscal 2013 first quarter ended April 30, 2012. The sales and earnings trends Raven experienced in the 2012 fiscal year continued in the 2013 fiscal first quarter, with sales up 16 percent to $117.9 million, from $101.5 million in the prior-year period. First-quarter net income rose 21 percent to $19.0 million, or $1.04 per diluted share, versus fiscal 2012 first-quarter net income of $15.7 million, or $0.86 per diluted share. Growth was driven by the Engineered Films and Applied Technology Divisions, where double-digit sales gains were accompanied by even stronger increases in operating income. "We are capitalizing on favorable market dynamics in agriculture and energy," said Daniel A. Rykhus, president and chief executive officer. "This produced a strong start to the year with excellent top- and bottom-line performances in our Engineered Films and Applied Technology Divisions. A difficult federal spending environment affected Aerostar. However, the company as a whole posted impressive results, demonstrating the benefits of our diversification strategy. "In each of our chosen markets, we're committed to helping our customers solve great challenges—hunger, safety, environmental protection and energy independence. Our ability to meet these challenges and aggressively expand and pursue new opportunities in our growth markets requires important capital investments. Despite significant investment spending in the first quarter, Raven still reported record performance."Engineered Films Builds Sales and MarginsRaven's Engineered Films Division posted first-quarter sales of $41.1 million, which was up 37 percent from $30.1 million in the fiscal 2012 first quarter. Operating income more than doubled to $9.2 million, from $4.1 million in the prior-year period. Both sales and earnings figures were at record levels. Noted Rykhus, "Continued strength in the energy and agricultural markets, and deliveries of geomembrane films for environmental protection, fueled increased demand in the first quarter. Moreover, we further enhanced margins through a combination of several factors. We continued to sustain an attractive cost/price spread for raw materials. We also improved operating efficiencies and plant utilization, and reduced scrap. Finally, margins benefited from a more favorable product mix. "New products continue to support our growth and we're actively investing in R&D to build a pipeline of growth opportunities. We are tracking at our expected pace for utilizing the extrusion capacity brought on-line in the fourth quarter last year."Ag Market Growth and Strong Execution Drive Applied Technology ResultsFor the first quarter, sales in the Applied Technology Division grew 29 percent to $50.5 million versus $39.1 million last year. Operating income increased 39 percent, to $20.9 million from $15.1 million. As in Engineered Films, both sales and earnings set records. Said Rykhus, "We are in the midst of a strong domestic agricultural market, and our record performance and continued growth reflect that. Our expanded offerings in field computers, application controls, information management and, in particular, guided steering systems that enhance farm yields and reduce operating costs, helped generate increased sales. We're committed to further product development in fiscal 2013. "International sales also continued to grow at a strong pace, delivering 27 percent of division revenues. Underlying our success outside of North America is the rapid adoption of guidance and steering systems. On the OEM front, we continue to make progress with our key partners, cultivating and deepening our existing relationships and developing new ones. We're starting to realize benefits, and as a result, our market position is improving."Order Timing, Volatility Impact Aerostar GrowthAerostar's sales in the first quarter were down 29 percent to $10.8 million from $15.1 million in the previous year's first quarter. The company reported an operating loss of $1.2 million, versus income of $4.1 million a year earlier. "The quarter-to-quarter variability for aerostat orders can lead to significant fluctuations in our Aerostar Division," said Rykhus. "That, combined with a difficult spending environment at the federal level, drove the anticipated first-quarter decrease in sales and operating income. To manage the short-term responsibly, we're carefully monitoring discretionary spending, staffing levels and R&D. While the quarterly variability in aerostat orders can be expected going forward, our focus at Aerostar is to continue to strengthen the business foundation for the long term to accommodate our future growth plans. "To that end we continued to make progress integrating Vista with Raven. We also began new pursuits with Vista that broaden our customer base to include more programs and government agencies. As we continue to collaborate, bringing the great talent of both organizations together, we believe the potential to sell into new markets, including those overseas, will be enhanced."Electronic Systems Realigned to Maximize Long-Term GrowthElectronic Systems' sales in the first quarter were $19.1 million, down slightly from $19.5 million in the year-ago first quarter. Operating income was $3.7 million, up 8 percent from the prior-year period. As previously disclosed, Raven is realigning the assets and team members of its Electronic Systems Division, redeploying them into the company's Aerostar and Applied Technology Divisions. Aerostar will add contract electronics manufacturing services to its capabilities, and Applied Technology will continue initiatives related to proprietary product lines. The repositioning is expected to be completed in the company's second fiscal quarter. Rykhus noted, "Electronic Systems has historically held a complementary position at Raven. The transition will better align our corporate structure with our mission and long-term growth strategies, and enhance our capacity to serve the needs of Electronic Systems Division's customers moving forward." Approximately 75 percent of Electronic Systems sales will go to Aerostar and the balance to Applied Technology. After the realignment, Raven Industries will continue with its core growth divisions: Applied Technology, Engineered Films and Aerostar.Strong Cash Position Despite Increased InvestmentsAt April 30, 2012, cash and investment balances were $43.5 million, up from $42.6 million a year ago. Increases in capital expenditures and the $12 million payment to acquire Vista Research, Inc., in the fourth quarter last year were offset by cash flows from operations. Accounts receivable increased to $58.6 million compared with $50.5 million at April 30, 2011. Inventories were $54.7 million, up from $45.5 million one year earlier. Average accounts receivable days outstanding remained consistent year-over-year while inventory turns declined slightly. First-quarter operating cash flows increased to $28.2 million from $11.0 million in the prior year.Responsibly Managing the Short Term, Focused on Longer-term OpportunitiesConcluded Rykhus, "We anticipate continued positive trends in Engineered Films and Applied Technology. Order variability will likely persist in Aerostar going forward—and we'll manage that responsibly. For the company overall, we believe that we can meet our long-term target of 10-15 percent earnings growth. "With favorable market dynamics anticipated in agriculture and other key market segments, we are focused on leveraging our market position, technology and differentiated products to build sales and income. Moreover, we're continuing to invest for the long term, expanding both our base of fixed assets and portfolio of product lines. "The drive to solve great challenges guides our vision today. Customer needs are always evolving and Raven has the willingness to embrace change, flexibility to shift our operational focus and innovative drive to meet market demand."Conference Call InformationRaven will host a conference call today, Friday, May 18, 2012, at 9:00 a.m. Central Time to discuss first-quarter performance.

I kind of just typed this up really quickly because I'm in between job sites right now and running home and running out so I didn't quite get the transition as I wanted to. But you get the idea.
But the point I was trying to make is that they are rationalizing their excuses (deadliness, superior secret techniques, etc.) to stray from achieving success and aptitude.
I don't know if you've ever come across a bullshido practitioner and offered to spar him. I do it every time I do. I gong sau them on the spot. They get flustered, their skin flushes, the excuse machine starts cranking in their mind. They know, they know deep down inside why they don't want to spar me. Because they know they'll lose. They know all their stuff doesn't mean anything. They've just never been presented with the obstacle to overcome.
Most people are too nice to say anything to them. Just let them live in their little bubble until they find a tactful way to show them the light. My pragmatism usually gets in the way of tact, and I would just rather crucifix them and butt scoot into the light to show them.
i, um, I actually hear you...but...
Anyway, as for the non-bolded part--how well does this work? What's your success rate of turning these bullshidoka into contributing, sparring members of the martial arts community? I'd prefer separate numbers on Full-Out-Bullshidoka (Frank Dux, etc) separate from People-Who-Don't-Train-How-You-Want-Them-To (Japanese Jujutsuka).What a disgrace it is for a man to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable. -Xenophon's Socrates
It's OK not to be SUPER COMPETITIVE and not everyone is going to end up in the polygon/thunderdome/whatever - but a goal divorced of improvement is a recipe for bad training.There's no choice but to confront you, to engage you, to erase you. I've gone to great lengths to expand my threshold of pain. I will use my mistakes against you. There's no other choice.
Despite my excuse, my writing still gets my point across, except to you, so I figured you might have a higher level of reading comprehension that needs further massaging to understand the deeper complexities of the subject. However, you lack skills of analogy. My excuse doesn't stop me from trying to achieve something and stay stagnant. You're trying to bring the stupid bullshit humor of YMAS into this thrad, and I want to say it right now, don't. Don't even fucking think about it. Just stop posting in here right now, I'll go make another thread you can **** in, just not in this one. Go rep fishing in there.
However to answer your question, it actually works well. Mostly because I'm an aggressive asshole about it and I will pressure and pressure and pressure them until they crack. There was a guy in Japanese that told me he studied ninjutsu. I told him "I dabble in martial arts." and asked him for a friendly sparring match, he asked what I did and I listed off my experience. He did not want to spar. Every day. Every day I would pressure him. Every day I would ask him, in front of his friends, embarrass him when he had to say no and make up some reason why he couldn't, which they knew was a lie, because they are 1) his friends and know he was not doing whatever excuse he gave me, and 2) that he had never shown them any kind of skill in battle ever. After about 3 weeks, he finally confessed to me that he didn't want to spar because he only trained every so often at the Ninjutsu school and that he wasn't sure he could beat me without a weapon. He cracked. I told him about how much a lie most ninjutsu schools are and he started going to the PAL boxing league.
I only meet these types every once in a while. Some are willing to spar and when they do and I stomp on them and explain why their art sucks, they look into new avenues. Some aren't and I just keep grilling them and hassling them aggressively until they decide to either avoid me or confess. There's really no other option except to kill me.
I agree with the bolded part wholeheartedly. People are mistaking what I'm trying to say. I am in no way, and in fact have not said, everyone should be on super competitive levels. No, in fact, not at all what I'm trying to say.
I'm saying, improve, be better. Don't settle for your stagnation. It's a bit of a phenomena that only in Martial arts are people willing to be stagnant. In soccer, I never thought, "I just want to run a lot and kick the ball a few times." or in ballet I never thought, "I just wanna stand on stage."
Wait no, I lie, I did... when I was 7 years old.
People train whatever style they want to, I don't give a ****. It's the pushing themselves thing I'm concerned about. My TKD school I came out of pumps out national champions like it's their main export. He pushes them all to their limits but never, ever asks them to compete. He simply puts up fliers and tells them about how competing is good to build skill and they join up themselves. I applaud and encourage them all the time even though I don't primarily train TKD anymore. But every time I go there, they love to have me there and are eager to learn something I can teach them. From a basic takedown to something like how to slip a punch.
Otherwise, I'll afford you this opportunity to start over and try again.

Fairly recent trip up in Oregon near and around Portland.
Its the most greenest place i've ever seen. The latter part of the video showing the
forest and beautiful river was about 6 or so miles deep in the Redwoods. It was at that spot
that i heard 2 very loud low frequency growls which i believed were Squatch warnings. I couldn't believe
it but i wanted to put that in the video as remembrance.

An Oklahoma lawmaker began a petition drive to put on the ballot a measure allowing the state to issue $500 million in bonds to finance storm shelters in schools, after a devastating tornado in May killed seven children at a school.

Fourteen Massachusetts schools designated "underperforming" in 2010 have met three-year turnaround goals and will shed their Level 4 status, but four turnaround schools could fall into state receivership, education officials said.
The first Minneapolis mayoral debate, held recently, focused on schools. This is remarkable, because the mayor has no formal responsibility over Minneapolis Public Schools. However, with a Star Tribune poll earlier this month finding that public education tops the list of Minneapolis residents polled, the six participating candidates were quick to fill that void with advocacy.
A majority of Tennessee school chiefs opted not to join their colleagues in publicly criticizing beleaguered Education Commissioner Kevin Huffman, although the participation of Nashville-area leaders was a mixed bag. About 40 percent of Tennessee's 138 school superintendents attached their names to a letter asking Gov. Bill Haslam to put the kibosh on Huffman and his reform policies.
George W. Bush once said, "Think about every problem, every challenge we face. The solution to each starts with education." That is certainly true in Detroit, Michigan, and the United States. Education helps us turn away bitterness, misconceptions, and anger at our differences.
In an effort to better shield classrooms from convicted felons, Kansas is moving toward requiring certain educators to submit fingerprints when renewing their teacher licenses so they can be checked against a state criminal database.
The county school board announced Gerri Martin as the new superintendent in a press release on Sept. 12. She will start on Tuesday, Oct. 1 after leaving her job as the current superintendent of McDowell County Schools.
The clocks provided by Champion Alarm Systems throughout the massive NYC public school district are configured into a self-corrective system controlled by a master clock.
The pairing of the lock and remote fob is always done at the lock and up to ten fobs can be paired in the field to one lock. Likewise, up to ten locks can be paired to one fob. When the fob is pressed for two seconds, it locks down the lock closest in range to avoid accidently locking another door. The typical range is up to 75 feet.
One of the most notable features offered by the DC-12 is its new picture-in-picture functionality, which allows students to view original and zoomed-in images simultaneously – when digital zoom is in use, a large window shows the featured section, while a smaller window keeps perspective on the original image.
In the form of HB 4972, certain legislators want to ban Michigan from adopting new science standards because they include mandates on teaching evolution and global warming. So not only does our Republican-led legislature want to defund public education, it now also wants to force its religious and anti-science beliefs into the classroom.
In a first for Hartford public schools, that remedy means placing artificial turf atop a three-story school addition that will be constructed in the next two years. A 12-foot-high fence will surround the field, which will not be visible from Asylum Avenue, Salafia said.
Washington comes in less than 1 percent, just $35 per pupil, below the 2008 mark, comparing relatively favorably. Tweak the inflation measure and we could climb into positive territory. Thirty-two states do worse. And our Legislature made substantial progress in the last session.
For a limited time, the Kindle (e-book) version of Invent to Learn: Making, Tinkering, and Engineering in the Classroom is available free.

Large Overdate, AU53
This early die state piece has no evidence of die cracks, clash marks, or other die anomalies on either side. Later states exist, identified as O-101a.
The 1812/1 Large 8 ranks among the most important half dollar varieties in the Capped Bust series. In addition to its Low R.5 rating, with only about 60 to 80 examples surviving, it is also an important Guide Book variety that further increases the demand. In the 1970 second edition of Overton, the O-101 and O-101a die states were listed as R.7, meaning four to 12 pieces exist. At the time of his purchase in 1974, Don Frederick considered this piece the finest known as did the catalogers of the Ruby Collection. Today this piece still ranks among the top two or three examples known.
The large overdate variety was first published in a December 1969 New Netherlands mail bid catalog. The current Ruby-Frederick specimen could have been the discovery specimen, according to the cataloger for Superior in 1974 who wrote: "This could have been the discovery specimen had either its cataloguer or Dr. Ruby taken a close look at it; it came from the William P. Donlon collection, November 1956, lot 730, merely catalogued as an overdate."
As a sign of the times some 36 years ago, the Superior cataloger also wrote: "Sharp enough that it is likely to be dipped and resold as 'Uncirculated.'" Fortunately, the buyer was Don Frederick, an avid collector and student of the series who preserved the coin exactly as it appeared in 1974.
Both sides of this lovely piece exhibit sharp design details with slight traces of high point wear. Considerable luster is visible through warm gold, blue, and iridescent toning over silver-gray surfaces. Only slight handling marks are present on both sides.
Ex: William P. Donlon Collection (Abe Kosoff, 11/1956), lot 730; Dr. Charles Ruby Collection (Superior, 2/1974), lot 1349.

The Draped Bust Half Dollars of 1796-1797 by Jon Amato is the culmination of more than 10 years of research into the Draped Bust Small Eagle half dollar series, one of the most coveted type coins in American numismatics and one about which remarkably little has been written.
This work will be the premier reference for 1796-1797 half dollars for years to come. Institutions having an extensive numismatic library or coin cabinet will find it a valuable complement to their holdings, and catalogers charged with writing up specimens for auction can now have an indispensable source of background and pedigree information. Likewise, coin dealers seeking to purchase one or more '96 or '97 half dollars for a client or for inventory, and collectors who own, have owned, or desire to own one will want this important reference work for their libraries.

6.04 Medical Fees
6.04 Medical Fees
The Harvard University Student Health Program (HUSHP) Student Health Fee ($496 per term in 2014-15) covers most outpatient care at Harvard University Health Services and is required for resident students who are paying either full tuition or the facilities fee. This requirement is a result of a Harvard Corporation vote and a Massachusetts state mandate. The cost of the Harvard University Student Health Insurance Plan (Blue Cross Blue Shield and Medco prescription coverage) is $1,183 per term in 2014-15. In order to have the Harvard University Student Health Insurance Plan charge waived, students must verify that they are covered by equivalent medical insurance.
Two opportunities exist to waive the Student Health Insurance Plan. A student may file a waiver for the entire academic year or for only the fall or spring term. Financial aid recipients who choose to waive the Student Health Insurance Plan will have this budget item removed from their cost of attendance budget. This removal may result in an adjustment to the financial aid package. Please be aware that the Student Health Insurance Plan charge will appear on the term bill until the waiver has been processed fully. Waivers are available online at www.hushp.harvard.edu/. For details and waiver deadlines, students should consult the Member Services office at Harvard University Health Services, Holyoke Center, first floor, 617-495-2008.
The charge for Harvard-sponsored Blue Cross Blue Shield coverage is included on the term bill in two installments.
For students who have Harvard-sponsored Blue Cross Blue Shield and/or the Student Health Fee coverage in the spring term and receive terminal degrees in May, the Harvard-sponsored Blue Cross Blue Shield and the Student Health Fee coverage extends through July 31. Additional information regarding health insurance coverage is available at www.hushp.harvard.edu.

The influence of water and nutrient availability on bryophyte communities in continental AntarcticaEntry ID: ASAC_1087
Abstract: Bryophyte Ecophysiology - response to water and nutrients.
This project is also related to ASAC project 1313 (ASAC_1313) - Impact of global climate change on Antarctic flora: long-term monitoring and ecophysiological studies of bryophyte community dynamics in the Windmill Islands - and to the State of the Environment indicator Windmill Islands terrestrial vegetation dynamics ... (SOE_Windmill_Island_veg).
File descriptions
All files are associated with a multiseason manipulative field experiment investigating the effect of increased water and nutrient availability in Antarctic terrestrial communities. For full details refer to Chapter 4 in Wasley (2004).
A number of scans relating to the pilot data collected in this project are available for download. Currently these are low resolution scans, but will be updated in time to better quality images.
Study Site
The experiment was conducted in Antarctic Specially Protected Area (ASPA) 135, on Bailey Peninsula, approximately 1 km east of Casey Station. The site was located on the western edge of a meltlake, at 66 degrees 16.03' S, 110 degrees 32.53' E.

Nintendo needs to attract third parties more then they have been in the past three, four generations. This has to change. No questions asked. And power attracts third parties, sadly.
Who is this guy and why should we care? But if the NX isn't comparable in power with the PS4 or XBO, why bother? The reason for a new system is to attract third parties and to be competitive. Yeah, do your own thing, but make people want to buy YOUR console instead of others. That's business and that's competition.
This guy sounds like he's trying to start stuff for the sake of starting it with Nintendo fans.
Quadruple them! I want a Meta Knight and Villager! And a Gold Mario, I suppose. D:
It's possible, especially if it ends up becoming a stretch goal.
@MrMikey Funny story? I was told weeks in advance that my Best Buy would put theirs out on the 29th of May with all of the other ones. So I woke up early, went out 2 1/2 hours before the store opened, was first in line, and kept waiting only to be told they didn't have them in. Then I learn they put them out the following day and they were sold out! >.<;; I even wrote the company and was just given the usual PR spiel (written by "Lady," apparently).
On the bright side, I did get the (now apparently common) Silver Mario Amiibo.
Awesome! Want that Villager. Now I just want to hear about Gold Mario and especially Meta Knight.
To be fair, I honestly think Palutena /should/ be stronger. She's a flipping goddess!
Star Fox
Metroid (not Prime)
Mega Man
Bayonetta 3
Wario (not Ware)
Bravely Second
My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
Chrono Trigger
Good first class, except for World of Warcraft. Waaaayyyyy to early for a game that recent.
They're buttering us up for the inevitable cancellation. I'd put money on it if I were a betting man.
Well, that's cool of them to do. I'll tune in just for the courtesy, even though I'm not expecting any Nintendo stuff out of them.
Finally! I felt like I was waiting forever for new main stages.
Well, the codes themselves are a part of the game that isn't an exploit of something unintended, so, yeah, I'll partake.
I figure more can always be made if the DLC is popular enough. And there's an easy enough way to make more room. Just shrink the character select icons.
As for Roy and Ryu, I'm mixed. I think Roy returning would be fine. I don't like characters being cut, so he'd give me a sense of completion. While they're at it, bring back Young Link, Pichu, Wolf, Snake (somehow), and make the ice Climbers Wii U exclusive. Sorry, 3DS.
But with Ryu, another Capcom character? On one hand, I'm okay with it because it means there's still a good relationship, kinda, between Capcom and Nintendo. But Ryu? I dunno, he just seems kinda underwhelming. But, he /is/ iconic, so he'd fit.
He brought this on himself.
I've already cleared Classic on both, but that's okay. I don't go online often anyway.
@gatorboi352 What? If graphics alone sold me on systems, I'd own a PS4 or a XBO. In their heart, games like The Order, The Last of Us, Call of Duty, Halo, Battlefield, all of them, games in grim-n-grity settings made to push polygons first and gameplay later, none of that appeals to me. This is why I stick with Nintendo and Steam. Are you suggesting that graphics are a good enough reason to buy a game?
That's a little more than slight. A bit of a letdown, but graphics alone don't sell me on a game anyway. This is why I don't own a Sony or Microsoft system.
This is my game of the year. <3
They kinda gave Nintendo the backhand, didn't they? And he's never appeared playable in an Nintendo game, right? Sorry, no vote for you, Meat Boy.
On /this/ list? Shantae, without a doubt!
Overall? Shantae, Shovel Knight, Dixie Kong, Adventures-style Krystal with the spear, and Simon Belmont.
A Roy comeback would be cool too. He should be easy enough. And I wouldn't protest Banjo & Kazooie. Or Bomberman!
Sure, I'd love to see it if they could work something out.
Yeah, they're gonna stick with it, and I'm certain we'll have another mighty nice release released by year's end. Star Fox, anyone?
@Shirma_Akayaku ...Actually, Peach's was the one I liked the most... ^^;;
I'm... not a fan. The art is gorgeous, but the design choices are... not for me.
There's only one comment that can sum this up:
Oh well. Get it right instead of getting it out fast.
They won't be so positive once Nintendo schools everyone else.
Wow. Are things this bad for Nintendo right now? I can't help but feel this won't go well in the long run...
I was never convinced the Happy Mask Salesman was evil, manga not withstanding.
@JusticeColde What?! Abe Lincoln in Smash Bros. would be fantastic! You can do Evil Lincoln, Space Lincoln, Ghost Lincoln, the alternate skins write themselves! XD
...Of course, we have Miis... ^^;;
The sad thing is, once Adam Baldwin's (coined the term #GamerGate) involvement with this game becomes mainstream, it's going to create quite a firestorm. It's a shame, too. I was almost interested in it/the Majora's Mask pin.
Please bring 'em westward! I still need Villager!
Cool for those who missed him, but I'm still waiting on new Villager and Meta Knight shipments. o3o
I kinda hope this is also the reason for some of the earlier waves' delay. I remember my MLP vinyls got delayed well over a month because of this strike. Here's hoping for a treasure trove of Villagers and Meta Knights!
...Those are the two I'm missing...
I'd love an EarthBound animated mini-series.
Word from my GameStop was that Sonic and Dedede would be available on the 20th of February and the others would be available on the 13th.
Too bad for the scalpers. Enjoy your copies at a reasonable price!
Hackers, boooo.
@roccochacon I'd go with the latest one sent to you.
Hopefully this means TRU finally loses Lucario as a retailer exclusive. I'm sorry, but Nintendo needs to make a stand on this. This is TRU's problem and Nintendo can't let it reflect on them.
Diddy is definitely overpowered. No way he should hit harder than Donkey Kong. And I think the once mighty Samus might have been nerfed in a recent update.
So, wait, does it work outside of Japan or no?
Now this is a ninth day I can get behind. <3
Definitely enjoying Bayonetta 1 & 2. We're glad you're happy, Mr. Producer!
...So... about Bayonetta 3...
All I'm missing is the Villager Amiibo. I think I always will be.
I'm still missing the Villager.
It has Super Mario Bros. 3. I'm sold. I mean, I was buying it before, but now I'm sold and thrilled. <3
Oh yeah, Super Mario World. That's fine too, I guess, but Super Mario Bros. 3!!
Good thing I don't play "For Glory." I always play for fun with whatever I play anyway.

Nick Brown's Christmas Card (part 2)
Earlier this week we showed you the front of Nick Brown's Christmas card. This is the reverse (although obviously there are questions over what Kermit did or did not say…):
Earlier this week we showed you the front of Nick Brown's Christmas card. This is the reverse (although obviously there are questions over what Kermit did or did not say…):
It's vital that Scottish Labour goes into next year's Holyrood elections with a bold and ambitious manifesto. Few issues need ambition more in Scotland than housing. With 150,000 people currently on waiting lists and private landlords pocketing more than £450m in housing benefit, there is a housing crisis. This week I was inspired on a visit to the West Whitlawburn Housing Cooperative in South Lanarkshire. Approaching its 25th birthday, the Coop provides over 600 properties and has transformed a community. […]Read more →
Some truisms exist for many years yet nobody acts upon them. Then along comes an avalanche of evidence that proves the case and the argument's time has come. A new report 'Changing Prisons Saving Lives' from Labour's Lord Toby Harris about why so many 16-24 year olds die in prison is such an avalanche. It has been so diligently researched across all the issues raised by these tragic deaths and the environments where they occurred and its conclusions are so […]Read more →
As the post-mortem of Labour's election defeat takes place in the midst of the party's leadership election, observers can't help but have noticed the term 'aspiration' persistently cropping up in the language of the three main contenders. The theory is that Labour failed to appeal to those in the middle in the last campaign, because its manifesto and campaign was too narrowly focused on the interests of those at the bottom. Therefore, we have this focus on 'aspiration', but what […]Read more →
Liz Kendall has argued that she is the only person in the Labour leadership race who isn't 'Continuity Miliband.' Kendall is running to be Labour leader against Andy Burnham, Yvette Cooper and Jeremy Corbyn. In an interview with the Sun, she argued that: "The other candidates haven't spelled out how they would be different from Ed Miliband. If we stick with what we have been saying for the last five or eight years, we will have the same result". This […]Read more →
Last week Jon Cruddas revealed that he is part of a group of MPs (the rest of whom currently remain anonymous) who are setting up an English Labour party. However, Labour officials said that this is not currently supported by the party. We do LabourList readers this? Do Labour need an English wing of the party, similar to Scottish and Welsh Labour? Most say no. 53% think that Labour shouldn't support Cruddas and other MPs' plans. However 32% are on […]Read more →
