Love it, easy to make
So delicious and easy to make!
Five stars with my changes: First, I use a bottom crust, which I prebake 5-7 minutes before filling. When cooking the chicken, I reduce the dressing to less than half, that flavor is too strong. Substitute cream of chicken soup for the broth, which gives it a nice, thick base and makes the flour unnecessary. I add a little garlic and onion powders to the filling, and I always use an entire brick of cream cheese. This is restaurant quality, and a favorite with all my family and friends. Sure hope this review doesn't get "lost" like my previous one did!

- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut the squash into large cubes, about 4cm/1½in across, then toss in a large roasting tin with half the olive oil. Roast for 30 mins, turning once during cooking, until golden and soft.
- While the squash cooks, melt the butter with the remaining oil in a large saucepan, then add the onions, garlic and ¾ of the chilli. Cover and cook on a very low heat for 15-20 mins until the onions are completely soft.
- Tip the squash into the pan, add the stock and the crème fraîche, then whizz with a stick blender until smooth. For a really silky soup, put the soup into a liquidiser and blitz it in batches. Return to the pan, gently reheat, then season to taste. Serve the soup in bowls with swirls of crème fraîche and a scattering of the remaining chopped chilli.

I made this for a starter to a dinner party on saturday and the comments were: "delicious! Can I have the recipe?" and "that has to be one of the best soups i've ever eaten" and my husband "can I have more bread to clean the bowl" haha. Needless to say it was an instant hit and it was absolutely delicious and will be a regular meal for us. The only difference is I served with a little double cream swirl instead of creme fraiche and topped with some tender basil leaves for presentation.

At that time, St. Joe was the largest land owner in the state of
However, it had taken the building of the walkable New Urbanist town of
Jim Rester was working for Sandestin when he accepted the position with St. Joe as vice president of its Northwest region. He would work under Peter Rummell, a former president at Walt Disney who was behind its Celebration community. Rester and Rummell had worked together at
Rester was to oversee development of St. Joe properties in Gulf, Bay, and Walton counties. The hottest of those was the WaterColor development in
WaterColor was still in the planning stages when Rester came onboard, and had not yet been launched, or even named.
"St. Joe owned a lot of land, but the best of it was in
Even though St. Joe owned so much more land than the 80 acres Seaside occupied and the giant corporation had so many more resources to tap, people thought it foolish to attempt to improve on Seaside.
Rester recalls that it took three days to name the development.
"All the corporate folks were here and seated around a table," said Rester. "We wanted a name that reflected the area and the beautiful color of the water. On the third day, Chick Grant, vice president of design and development, referred to the colors on a watercolor print he had seen. It was then that everyone agreed on the name WaterColor."
The property consisted of 500 acres and surrounded
Rester was only with St. Joe for 3.5 years, from 1998-2001, but they were the formative years of molding the resort, naming it, and determining what it would look like.

Success has a lot of authors, Rester added.
The WaterColor Beach Club was designed by Chick Grant, and local architect Tom Christ, who designed The Boat House.
"There were a lot of design people and all very experienced. It took an enormous effort. Chick had a lot of influence and Rummell had excellent taste," said Rester.
As for his own influence, the former VP's hand can be seen at the 60-room WaterColor Inn.
"They proposed a 155-room hotel. But we didn't have a lot of beach front and they wanted to take it all for the hotel. So, we put the pool over the hotel and I was able to get the hotel reduced to 60 rooms, which left some beachfront for homes," said Rester.
Today, WaterColor is almost completely built out at 1,000 homes.

Rene, it's probably worth mentioning in the article that this game has been out before, back when it was called Casey's Contraptions. In fact, it was even featured in one of Leanna's "new and updated" posts a while back.
It was a very clever and charming game, though in my opinion suffered from some problems needing pixel-perfect accuracy, making some of the levels frustrating and tedious. (I am probably in the minority here, but I have the same problem with Angry Birds and most other physics puzzlers).
What Rovio's doing is just buying and rebranding it. From what I can tell, it doesn't even look like it was updated or modified much in any way beyond changing the name, and a marketing machine behind it.
And of course, being Rovio, it's not universal, and doesn't have iCloud save-game syncing.

Spike Dixon memorial hit by vandals
Last updated at 15:24, Thursday, 22 March 2012
HEARTLESS vandals have destroyed a tree planted in memory of Spike Dixon who was shot dead by gunman Derrick Bird.
The cherry sapling, installed only a month ago at Piggery Field, Egremont, has had all but one of its branches snapped and its stem broken.
Egremont councillor Mike McVeigh, a friend of the Dixon family who was mayor of Copeland at the time of the shootings, said: "I am shocked and disgusted that anyone could commit such a mindless act of vandalism.
"Anyone who knew Spike knew that he was a real community man and worked hard to take care of the Egremont area and the people in it.
"He would be devastated that this has happened and I would urge anyone who is as community-minded as Spike was to report the people responsible to the police.''
Spike, a vice-president of Egremont Conservative Club, was shot and killed in Carleton Woods by Bird on June 2, 2010.
Last month, his family and friends gathered to remember him at a ceremony to unveil a memorial bench and tree which were installed within sight of the shed where the countryside-loving Spike, 65, relaxed and kept chickens.
At the time, his sister, Margaret Earl, said: "He would sit peacefully listening to his radio before going for his walks. We are very touched by everyone's support and help."
Copeland's mayor, John Jackson, also said at the ceremony: "Spike was an unassuming bloke. He loved it here, so this is fitting testament of such a grand lad."
PCSO Alan Williamson said the damage to the tree was a criminal offence but "in the circumstances surrounding it, and what the sapling signifies, makes the damage even more disgusting.''
And he appealed to the public to contact him with any information on 101.
Around five other benches and trees in memory of those killed by Derrick Bird have been installed across Copeland, funded by a private company which wishes to remain anonymous.
The location of the benches, installed by Copeland Council, hasn't been publicised due to the wishes of the victims' families.

Have your say
Absolutely disgusting. Just hope that the family realise that not everyone out there has such little respect for other human beings, their property, their memorials etc.
To lose Spike and then have someone do this to his memorial tree, it just makes you sick.
I hope someone has the decency to hand their names in to the police. Someone knows who did it. Scum.
Have these people not suffered enough, what a sick place we live in.

The Region 7-AAAA opener on Friday night unfolded much like most of the regular season games have for Cane Bay's baseball team this spring.
The Cobras were competitive but just not good enough to win. The Wildcats dropped Cane Bay to 1-6 overall and 0-1 in the region with an 8-5 win at WAHS.
"We have been competitive in each game but we have found ways to give games away," CBHS coach Shane Todd said. "Our biggest problem is not getting hits with runners in scoring position. We have been pretty good getting to third but that last 90 feet has seemed like three miles."
Against West Ashley on Friday, the Cobras fell behind 2-0 in the bottom of the first, tied it up in the top of the second and then gave up two runs apiece in each of the Wildcats' next two at-bats.
The Cobras host Stratford Wednesday and Goose Creek on Friday in their next two games, both region contests.
"We have to keep working and hopefully our hitting will come around soon," Todd said. "We have shown we can be a very good team but we have to be more consistent."
The West Ashley loss came on the heels of an impressive outing two days earlier, a 2-1 victory over defending Class AAAA champion Ashley Ridge that snapped a five-game losing skid to start the regular season.
Cane Bay's first three losses came by a total of four runs.
Against Ashley Ridge, starting pitcher Justin Shelton took a one-hitter into the sixth inning and reliever B.J. Thompson finished off the Swamp Foxes. Billy Detyens' RBI single in the top of the seventh inning gave the Cobras the one-run victory.
Shelton fanned four Ashley Ridge batters in his time on the hill and walked four. Thompson fanned three batters while walking none.
On the season, Todd said Jacob Page, Thompson, and Austin Timm are his top three hitters.
"We seem to get behind early in games and have to play catch up," he added. "It really has prevented us from playing small ball which is what type of team we are."

There any good, real sandboxes that are due out before this game is scheduled to launch?
There anyone else out there making a true sandbox. No please dont say ArcheAge, im not interested in quest hub "sandboxes"
Yes you could say DF 2.0 which is looking more and more like its launch will compete with this games launch.
Is there anything out there to follow along with this game? This sites such a damn mess i cant find anything with all these browser games and DOTA style pvp match games.
I know MO is still in alpha and they are suppose to have a big patch soon, but i have issues with supporting that game any further from my near launch box purchase.
So what else is there for us people who are sandboxers and unable to enjoy the shallow risk free pvp of themeparks that the herd of gamers cant get enough of?
My hope is that theres something out there im missing that i could enjoy along with my eve-like mech game while i wait for this game to arrive.

Again wiht the sandbox posts but only concerned with PvP. I want a true Sandbox game also but PvP isn't the only freature of a true Sandbox MMO. If you want a PvP pure game it isn't a MMO. Just saying that this is why today's sandbox games fail.

Not much out there unfortunately. Maybe take a look at the repopulation, but judging by your dislike for ArcheAge, I am not sure it is up your alley as it is a mix of sand and theme with quests. Looks kind of like a SWG/Shadowbane/Eve mix.

EVE is really your only option until The War Z comes out.

Yeah, I've been playing DayZ, which is great for just pure sandboxyness, and plan on checking out The War Z as well. But...they are quite different from a single server fantasy game, heh.

Ya I would love a single server fantasy game too but I cant see it happening.
Im actually int he mood for some new MMO themes. The Zombie//survival theme is definitely coming....but I'd also like to see a Western theme ala Red Dead Redemption....with crafts like fishing and gold panning/mining....how sick would THAT be :)

Asheron call 1 has a great FFA, loot system on Darktide, its an older games, but they have great PVP, and PVE even is one of the best with this kind of system, I wish another game would copy the PVE in it, as far as the questing system is .Lore based questing is awesome.... no hand holding crap.
Yes AC is old with old graphics, but one of the best games ever made hands down and still has a decent following on PVE servers and PVP, I play it from time to time and did for 7 years after launch, I wish turbine would update its graphics, but it would take an entire game engine over haul sadly or they would have.
But best game ever.

A good sandbox NEED the risk of full loot ffa pvp. However catering to the hardcore pvpers gets you darkfall, a game that seriously struggling.
I want a sandbox with the fun of risky pvp and risky gameplay but with a focus on pve. I played most of my many years of darkfall not macroing like the hardcore pvpers and not pvping (aside from holding seige mayhem).
I just cant get into a game where i dont have to watch my back and where pvp is northing more than a trip to a bind then a short time out...makes it all so very meaningless to me.
Todays sandboxes fail because a lot of people who would normally enjoythem put the blinders on and cant adapt to a game with pvp. It just takes a change in habits to adapt and youll never lose anything you cant replace. Also most all sandboxes have shit pve combat and shit combat systems in general. Todays sandboxes (EVE genere games aside) are nothing more than crafting sims with pvp. Darkfall did a good job with enjoyable pve combat, where i wasnt fighting just mobile rescource nodes, however the launch and the hardcore pvpers urge to prevent all from progressing without pvp/macroing really prevented many from enjoyting a great aspect of that game. And now its ruined with wow-style progression.
Anyway. Adding enough pve sand in the sandbox, and creating an enviroment where people can progress without griefers, especially at launch, would create a fantastic ratio of criminal pvpers and normal people. There needs to be more normal players than pk griefers else it will just turn into a hardcore pvp only game...and those suck.

I am with you. Im in the middle ground. I enjoy every aspect of gaming, including the fear of getting ganked. But..... Darkfall, Mortal Online, and games that have open world PvP with consequence is like walking in the middle of a Prison Yard with your ass exposed.
Its just not fun.
Sad thing is that the gankers and PKs take it to the level of griefing because thats their fun. They find a way to make it miserable for others and thus those games end up failing and you are left with a Prison yard of punks inside the game.
I actually understand why companies do not create games that have consequence. Because even someone like me who loves Pvp and Guild vs Guild and enjoyed the hell out of UO before Trammel, will not play a game where people intentionally try to ruin my fun.
Sucks. I rarely stick with FPS games either because people hack and cheat and its not fun to play with people who cheat while you are trying to play with skill.
People ruin the games and this is why we will never have all playstyles inside of one game. Wont ever happen.

If the point of the game is to lose and replace the stuff you loss...its not a big deal. I agree there needs to be stuff to draw griefers attention away from harassing people. Good guild vs guild mechanics, territory loss, and other pvp mechanics will keep those people busy. There will always be PKK guilds who hunt these players, there always is...as will there always be the option to not play alone, in an unsafe area, and to plan ahead.
The only people who ruin these types of games are the people who fail to see them as just games. The griefers, while annoying get that they are in a game. The guy rage quitting because he yet again lost hours of farming solo, rather than banking often, or using the games community to assist...they are the ones who dont get it, and should stick to super safe themeparks where they can solo in peace.
These types of games are not for everyone. People who get mad over pixle loss are going to quit one way or another. The griefers feed off your unnatural emotional attachment to easily replacable items, and feed off players inability to use their head and adapt.
If i were you, i would stay far, far, away from games like this and stick to GW2 or whatever flavor of the month themepark is out there. No risk no griefers, safe solo fun!!!. And i dont mean this as an insult, to be ok with those games is great, since you actually have a vairety of options. Those of us who need the risk to enjoy the game, who need the loss potential, the challange of confronting griefers ect...we have very few options, and most are unfinished buggy games.
Luckily the great thing about sandboxes like this is that you dont need 50 full servers of players youll never meet to enjoy it or consider it a success. Its all about the game play mechanics and adrenaline...not populairity and class balance.

Mary Catherine Weigh, a resident of Murrells Inlet, celebrates her 105th birthday on Monday, February 10, 2014. A party at home, with family and friends, on Sunday, February 9, will mark the beginning of other special gatherings in her honor.
Mary Weigh is a member of Saint Michael the Archangel Catholic Church which she attends weekly. She is a sweet, faith-filled woman who inspired many during the course of her life. She continues to be a role-model for her family: five married daughters, 16 grandchildren, 37 great-grandchildren, and one great-great grandchild.
She is a lovely woman, active, involved, and quick-witted. Presently, she enjoys playing on her i-Pad, crocheting, praying, playing cards, being with family, and living in South Carolina with her youngest daughter and son-in-law, Mary Carol and Jim Fleming, and their Schnauzer, Louie. The quality of her life, as she describes it, is based on a vibrant faith, hard work, daily prayer, diversified interests, the Lords blessings, and the love of family and friends.
As a centenarian, she received several citations. Among them: from President Obama on her 101st birthday; from Frederick Memorial Hospital in Maryland for crocheting many bonnets for the new-born infants; from the Little Sisters of the Poor in New Jersey for donating more than 50 crocheted hanging towels for the residents in the Nursing Home. She won a Second Prize Ribbon for her crocheted doilies at the Frederick County Fair in Maryland. She received a Distinguished Citizen Silver Certificate from the Department of Texas Marine Corps League for crocheting dozens of scarves for the marines in Afghanistan. She was honored four times at the annual Maryland State Centenarians Celebration.
Mary Weigh was born in Hungary on February 10, 1909, the fifth child of Andrew and Anna Visotsky.
Her circumstances were modest when she came to the United States at the age of three. She was blessed with loving parents who promoted strong Christian values, a vibrant work-ethic, and an unrelenting drive to set and achieve goals.
She lived in New Jersey for more than sixty years. She married Conrad Jude Weigh on December 1, 1929. Together, they raised 5 professional daughters before moving to live with their youngest daughter, Mary Carol Fleming and her family, then residents of Maryland. Mary Weigh and her husband Conrad were members of Saint Ignatius Catholic Church and the Maryland Senior Center in Damascus. She was widowed after being married for 64 years. She attended St. Peter the Apostle Church in Libertytown, MD, where there is a stained glass window dedicated in her honor on her 100th birthday.
Congratulations to a wonderful woman, a role model, and a dear mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great grandmother, and special friend.
Happy 105th Birthday!

Frequently Asked Questions for Augason Farms Food Storage Products:
Q: How will my product be shipped?
A: Most items are shipped by small parcel carriers like FedEx or UPS. The larger kits will arrive in multiple boxes from a single carrier.
Q: What do the numbers mean that are marked on my Food Storage Kit Boxes?
A: To facilitate fulfillment of your order, all kit boxes are pre-assembled with specific products, then pulled from inventory to assemble your order. Numbers on the boxes may not be in sequential order. Pail items will be shipped in separate cases.
Q: Why when I open the cans/pails, are some only partially filled?
A: With some products, settling occurs and is expected. Cans/pails are sold by weight and not by volume for that reason.
Q: Once I open the product, how long do I have to use the product?
A: Shelf life varies by product and is affected by temperature and moisture. Once the can/pail is opened, the storage life for most products is approximately one year.
- Beans, Freeze Dried Fruits & Vegetables, Grains: 30 years (Exception – Brown Rice: 7 years)
- Bakery Staples: 30 years (Exception – Ultimate Gel, Shortening Powder, Flour, Vital Wheat Gluten, Dough Enhancer: 10 years)
- Dehydrated Fruits & Vegetables: 25 years (Exception – Banana Slices, Potato Gems: 10 years)
- Freeze Dried Meats & Entrées: 25 years sealed - 1 month opened
- Delight Drinks: 15 years
- Vegetarian Meat Substitutes, Cocoas, Cereals, Bakery Mixes, Eggs & Dairy: 10 years (Exception – Morning Moo's: 25 years, Chocolate Morning Moo's: 15 years)

A: Product is best when stored in a cool, dry place at temperatures between 55˚F and 70˚F (ideal humidity 15%). Once product is open, please ensure the lid is secure when storing and use within the guidelines.
Q: Does heat or cold affect the shelf life of the product?
A: Heat shortens the storage life of any food – the cooler the storage, the longer the storage life.
Q: How do I compare "servings per can or pail" to product weight?
A: The truth is you cannot. Our serving sizes and number of servings per can are set with respect to government guidelines on food nutrition and recipe requirements for each product. You will find some recipe creations may require multiple servings of specific products to create the recipe. When reviewing food storage kits, a good comparison is based upon number of persons, calories per day, length of time and calculating the total number of meals possible. For example: 1-Person, 1-Year (3 meals per day, 365 days = 1,095 total meals), 1,700 calories per day.
Q: If a can gets dented, does it affect the quality of the product?
A: Small dents may occur in cans from shipping, and this is normal. They do not pose a problem, provided the seal has not been broken at top or bottom of the can. If the seal has been broken at the top or bottom of the can, please contact Sam's Club Customer Service to resolve the issue: 1.888.746.7726.
Dents should not occur from shipping in pails.
Q: Are the cans/pails marked with "use by" dates?
A: Cans/pails are marked with a production date called a Julian date. For example, 12022 means the can was produced in 2012 on the 22nd day (January 22). Each can is also marked with the expected storage life.

The Direct Memory Access Controller (DMAC) is a hardware feature that enables movement of blocks of data from peripheral to memory, memory-to-peripheral or memory-to-memory. This movement of data by a separate entity significantly reduces the load on the processor.
A DMAC can save power in a system by putting the CPU in a low power state and using the DMAC (fewer gates/transactions) to move the data. Equally, using a DMAC can achieve higher performance in a system where it moves data in parallel with processing in the CPU.

AMBA DMA Controllers for AXI and AHB
DMA Controllers can have a significant impact on both system performance and system power. It is critical that the design provides for optimum compatibility with the bus architecture (AMBA) and provides the flexibility required to support a wide range of system requirements.
ARM delivers DMA controllers for both high-end, high-performance AXI systems based on the Cortex-A™ and Cortex-R™ families and cost-efficient AHB systems built around Cortex-M™ and ARM9 processors.
DMA in high-performance AXI systems
The AMBA AXI-based PrimeCell® DMA Controller, DMA-330, is a highly flexible, high-performance DMAC designed to provide maximum configurability and programmability. Configurability optimizes the gate count for target systems. The size can be as low as 40K for low-end configurations. The DMA-330 also provides a natural migration path for users of the AMBA AHB based DMA Controller, PL080.
An FSM based DMAC can provide only limited functionalities as the gate count increases rapidly with the increase in the number of features supported. In contrast, the DMA-330 is a micro-programmable DMAC, with its own instruction set, and provides a rich set of features while keeping the gate count low. The DMA-330 instruction set design provides flexibility for programming DMA transfers. The program code is stored in system memory that the DMAC accesses using its AMBA AXI interface and the DMA-330 uses an efficient caching system to optimize performance and minimize bus traffic.
DMA in cost-effective AHB systems
For AHB systems based around the Cortex-M™ processors ARM delivers the DMA-230 "micro" DMA controller. Designed for very low gate count and low power operation DMA-230 provides a flexible, high-performance DMA Controller required by such designs.

"I think, therefore i am"
You seem misunderstood the trailer, this is what the END event was, the party of the story is actually YOU who were playing fighting the Gaarlan empire which the event was we were fighting the empire until server dropped. That's WHAT make it EPIC..
also there is a story line follow by this trailer, all the character feature beside the main team (who are supposedly be you and your friends) are actually NPC that the story follows. Company leader stand on the hill and the main npc are praying for the forks.

The tone, the story and the epicness of the movie is intended to reflect the enormity and gravity of what's happening in-game, and - in this particular case - sets the stage for what's to come. It's certainly something to get excited about in terms of what A Realm Reborn will deliver in those areas.
As far as not getting hyped over a pre-rendered cinematic alone, I agree. One should never do that. I think you should even keep a degree of cautious optimism after watching in-game footage as well.
Fortunately, we will have Alpha tests, Beta tests, and then a free period for all current game owners, as well as a free trial for potential players. That's where it'll count.
That said, having been part of the history that comes to a close in that cut-scene, I have absolutely no problem saying that being moved, even to tears, at the events in it is 1000% appropriate. A good story should move the viewer/reader/listener, whether it be to joy, sadness, anger or any other emotion. "End of An Era", in my opinion, easily succeeds in that.

Yes a major factor missing from most mmo's a GOOD deep story and so far in ffxiv SE has done just that.

Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft' might win, by fearing to attempt
Bravo. That was moving. Just like the XI intro.
I played it and liked it at launch, but have not followed much of what's changing for 2.0. I am sure since I really liked it at launch there are things i will not like much in 2.0, and probably some things that i will like as well. I'm digging now but can't seem to find an answer to this question, so I ask those of you who have followed it in detail...
Are they maintaining the ambiance? Things like the long boat ride? The lights and torches coming on at night? Weather effects that have meaning? The sound of footfalls changing on wet ground vs dry ground? things like that? That stuff really set the FF mmorpgs apart for me, that's the stuff I notice and enjoy. Do you think they are aiming to keep that stuff intact?

I haven't said you cannot see gameplay elsewhere. I didn't say I *wanted* to see combat in this particular vid.
I think you are missing what I am getting at in the need to win some kind of point. I will assume it isn't deliberate.

I see the failure of the gods to prevent the next era to be symbolic of the failure of the devs to keep the game's current incarnation alive, they must have been working on this story the moment Yoshida realized they would need to start from scratch.

For starters, any implication that Bahamut is a ripoff of the elder dragons or that dragon from WoW just won't, forgive the pun again, fly with me. As was said, Bahamut is a staple of the series and has been seen throughout the games as laying waste to entire nations or being a harbinger of doom. The moderm progenitor of the dragon archetype that we see in games today, like Skyrim, should really be creditted to Tolkien and Smaug. And then there's the whole point that Bahamut is totally more bad ass. :P
All signs point to the fact that Bahamut is some type of primal. How this ties in to the current XIV story precisely, including why the anti-god, anti-primal empire chose to summon him is a mystery. Currently it seems Bahamut will reprise a similar role, perhaps with added malice, to what he had in XI. This ending created lots of questions for those really into the lore, so we just need to stay tuned and see how it plays out.

From seeing brand new alpha footage last night, I can say yes to this and more. They're even looking into added ambiance elements such as having forested regions change colour with season, but due to time constraints may not be able to deliver. Either way it's on the radar.

Good point! Didn't think of it like that at first, though on a subconscious level I think I realized it.
That's one thing I love about the new development team: they haven't been afraid to acknowledge past failures, appologize for mistakes made along the way, and even preserve those mistakes by remaking a game on a premise essentially built on them.

Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like there are still a ways away from any type of playable beta. I am cautiously optimistic as the video was epic but after SWTOR, we have seen cinematic videos can be outstanding but the game play may not live up to the hype.

All i can say is i almost lost it when Bahumut broke from his prision and decended to the world. Seeing Ul'Dah in closed in Fire made you feel the reality of it all. The people praying to the 12 faith without faith made me think of all the people who do not believe in a god or gods but to quote the song "In one fleeting moment" the events that happen drive the people to there knees because the end was at hand. The Chocobo on top of the hill with the Grand Company leaders when he lets out a chirp knowing his world is also at a end in that moment. I have to give it to SE . I have not been moved by a CS in a game by SE or anyone for that matter in a long long time. Thank you SE for instilling back in me hope.

I do understand your point, and you are correct that Bahamut is a thing that is a staple character in the FF franchise. But you have to understand it from my and others view point as well. It dosent matter if they are naming a thing differently, when it has the same shape, acts the same way and are causing the same issues (destorys the world). The video of the bahamuth/dragon is such a bad move mainly because another franchise did the exacet same thing a couple of months ago and for me it creats just a big yawn (its a good animated sequence, dont get me wrong.). Its the anti thesis of fantasy when developers are copy/pasting stuff.
They could have done this so much better.

If you cant see the similarities I can only try to compair it with the movie industry. A couple of years ago there was a movie called Armagedeon, some may remember it. It was about a comet and Liv Tylor. During that time there was another flick called Deep impact, it didnt have Liv Tylor in it. Guess which one the viewer remember best :P....Damn, that was a bad comparing. The thing is that we have seen this already, just recently. And the mmo games are not exactly know to be so much differnt from each other so why not give us something differently, something that tickles the imagination. Dont give us lazers, big explosions and dragons for the 100th time. Pleaes give us something else. Give us a freaking Kefka or a Zeroumus that will say *poof* when it makes its entreance.
And it dosent matter that the Bahamut is a staple of the series. There is so much else to get from the "rich" lore of FF univerise. This was just lazy. The issue Ive is the time space between another serie useage of a big dragon and FF XIV usage. And yeah, the Bahamut is much cooler :)
And thanks for the summarize of what happend before the meteor :)

Well, that's not really how it happened. Y'shtola, Yda, Papalymo, Thancred and certainly Louisoix believe quite strongly in the Twelve and that's why you're asked to pray to each Diety in hopes of stirring them and bringing their assistance to bear, because the strength of mortals alone would not be enough, and they knew this.
At the end, it still wasn't enough. Louisioux, however, "has the final say" of sorts by sending the heroes of Eorzea (us) to - as he puts it in a previous mission cut-scene - "a new future" - so that we may survive the destruction and live to rebuild.
The ones without faith were the Empire/Garleans. Their entire goal was to wipe all the religious from the world so they could take it over.
I have to say, this was truly a stellar, stellar effort on SE's part. True, quality story-telling wrapped up in an incredible cut-scene. Beautiful work. This is the kind of inspiration I was hoping to find again in XIV, after being so moved by XI's opening movie. Took some time, but it looks like they have, hopefully, hit their stride and brought XIV into its own.

Big, huge, glaring oversight in your assertions...
Dalamud coming to Eorzea has been in motion for well over a year. It's been growing larger in the sky over the various patches (you can see the process here). SE has known since they decided the direction to take FFXIV in with Naoki Yoshida at the helm that Dalamud would be a prison for Bahamut. We're talking about around 1.5 years now since they provided the new direction and timeline for the game.
You don't seriously think they conceived that idea, wrote, storyboarded, produced, edited and completed that entire cut-scene in just the last 2, or even 3 months, do you? Cinematics of that scope and scale take months to complete, and considering they've used short snippets from that cinematic in teaser trailers going back several months now, I'd say it's quite clear that, no, this wasn't some idea they decided to copy from ANet in the last couple months, or longer for that matter.
In other words, SE didn't copy any game's theme. ANet or otherwise.
As has been said, Bahamut in the FF series has often brought with him destruction and mayhem to whatever world the game takes place in. This is nothing new. It's practically canon for the FF series. It's particularly in-line with the role of primals in XIV, as other primals have already been introduced to the game, each of them seeking to inflict harm as well. If nothing else, they're being consistent.
Look, it's quite clear you, and others who would view it the same as you, are trying to dismiss and undermine the brilliance of the video and what SE is doing. But you're seriously going to have to try a lot harder than that.
And frankly, I wouldn't bother. No matter what you think you've got "figured out", or what you think you "know" they did or are doing... it's pure conjecture. Nothing more. It only "looks the same" and "acts the same" to you because your pre-determined conclusion requires it to.

Report: Miesha Tate and Cat Zingano pulled from UFC Sweden card over political concerns - Bloody Elbow
Fighters Only is reporting that a women's MMA bout between Miesha Tate and Cat Zingano was pulled from the upcoming April 6 UFC card in Sweden due to concerns on the part of UFC VP Garry Cook that it could create problems for the organization in a new market.The fight was pulled because it was felt by Garry Cook, the UFC VP in charge of UK and European operations, that it wasn't suited to the Swedish audience.
Sweden is a new market and there is still some considerable opposition to the UFC among that infamously liberal and progressive' nation's press. Politically it is a very left-wing country and it was only in 2007 that a 1970 ban on professional boxing was lifted.
Alexander Gustafsson has spearheaded the charge into what has proven to be an unexpectedly lucrative market for the UFC, but the potential for the national press to dislike or misinterpret a women's fight was felt to be too high to risk.

Just because we love you, we combined two of everyone's favorite things... LOLing and Johnny Manziel.
First things first: Johnny as Scooby.
Now let's reminisce on that epic moment when Johnny and team beat Alabama. Nick Sabin and the Bama team, nothing for our boy Johnny can't handle.
Boys, don't be ashamed. We think it's safe to say, everyone's heart skips a beat when they see Johnny Football running down that field.
Speaking of man crushes...
Now what about this classic tribute video? Awesome.
Let's take a second to look at our personal favorites.
Keep calm y'all, we aren't done yet.
This fan has taken it to a whole new level, and we respect it completely.
And as we all know, every great man has to have a sensitive side.
Who can forget that moment when Johnny revealed to the world he's an animal lover? Yes, he saved a kitten. Nothing says cute like saving a helpless creature.
Finally, she's Johnny's adorable, number 1 fan!
We leave you with this very important message.
Now you help us! Send us your favorite Johnny moments on Twitter or Facebook and we will add them to list!

Hey everyone,
I was wondering everyones thoughts of what the cast should be for 11/22/63? I saw a thread that had a few suggestions about casting, but it wasn't entirely devoted to that topic. Anyway, I'll kick it off with my suggestions/ideas:
Jake/George: Ryan Gosling or Leo Dicaprio
Sadie: Charlize Theron (if she can pull off looking 28, she'd be perfect). Though if Rachel McAdams were taller, I'd say her.
Deke: Tom Hanks? I know he's probably too young for Deke but I think he'd be perfect for the role.. If not Hanks, maybe Gene Hackman or Warren Beatty?
Ellie Dockerty: Jessica Lange
Lee Harvey Oswald: Joseph Gordon Levitt
Al Templeton: Dustin Hoffman
George De Mohrenschildt: Donald Sutherland or Anthony Hopkins
Harry Dunning: John Turturro
This clearly is far from the whole cast, and I know my suggestions are far from perfect, but they're just to get this thread kickstarted and to see everyone else's thoughts on the topic...
So, what are your thoughts on who should be casted in the movie?

Mostly Cloudy
Wind: 3 mph
Elsie Elaine Story Arias, 85, of Wilmington, CA, passed away on Tuesday, January 31, 2012. Generations of her family were at her side as she drifted away to fly with angels.
She was born March 10, 1926, to Leslie Kingsley Story and Ruth Darling Webster in Montpelier, Vermont. Shortly after high school, she moved to Connecticut and worked as a "Rosie" in a wartime factory – Vought-Sikorsky Aircraft.
In 1946, she married and started a family the following year, living in Pine Rock Park, Connecticut. In 1955, she relocated to southern California finally settling in the South Bay area. She managed the St. Vincent de Paul Society store in Carson for many years, and then later worked in the wholesale store of Ferguson Marine.
Elsie lived life to its fullest, being independent until the very last. She would walk a one-mile area around her neighborhood, visiting others and just enjoying being outside in the fresh air. Her spirit, determination and fortitude, even at 85, were unstoppable. Her passions were finding treasures at garage sales, sewing, crocheting, collecting antique glassware, crafting jewelry and, of course, enjoying time with all of her extended family members.
She is survived by her brother Wilmer Story Rodgers, sister Ruth Carbone, children Robert and Michael Mirabal and Bonnie Mota; in addition, grandchildren Christopher Mirabal, Amber Seib, Cynthia Fernandez, Vincent Cianflocco, Lynette and Casie Mota, Adriane Mota Bechtol; great-grandchildren Theresa Cianflocco, Michael and Rueben Perez, Gilbert, Gabriel and Daniel Fernandez; great-great-grandchildren Michael, Sammuel and Brandon Perez.
Her memorial service was held on Thursday, February 9, 2012, at 12:30 p.m. at the VFW Post Wilmington.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in her honor to the Society St. Vincent de Paul Los Angeles or the City of Hope. These organizations are ones which were close to her heart. She will be missed dearly.

Lets say you have a 2 × 5 matrix.
Using the traditional way of specifying matrix sizes, that'd mean you had a matrix with 2 rows and 5 columns. Okay, fine.
But what if you had a 2 × 3 × 4 matrix?
In python with numpy, this might look something like (with a ton of whitespace added for clarity):
arr = numpy.array([ [ [1,2,3,4], [2,3,4,5], [3,4,5,6] ], [ [4,5,6,7], [5,6,7,8], [6,7,8,9] ] ])
The way that we're specifying the array in numpy actually helps add some clarity here. The 2 × 3 × 4 matrix is really just a list of lists of lists of elements.
I thought you said it added clarity?
Well, it does. Rows are made up of elements, 2D matrices are made up of rows, and 3D matrices made up of 2D matrices.
Anyway, the point of this post is, what do you call the measure of that third dimension? If the measure of the first dimension (the row) is called "columns", the measure of the second dimension "rows", what should the measure of the 3rd dimension be called?
This thread in the /r/math subreddit makes the following suggestions, in order of upvotes:
- Aisles
- Pages
- Slices
- Tensors
- Layers
- Depth(s?)
I'm not a huge fan of "aisles", despite it getting the most upvotes. It just doesn't seem intuitive enough. When I first think about an aisle, I'm thinking about the narrow passage ways in the stores you walk down, not the sides of those that contain the product (which is where I think that commenter was headed.) That could just be me, however.
I personally also rule out "slices" and "tensors" out, slices having somewhat specific meanings in python, and tensors having specific meanings in linear algebra and mechanics (which don't align completely to the concept of the measure of the 3rd dimension).
I also rule out "depth", if only because its not easily pluralized like row → rows, column → columns. A phrase like "number of columns" has some issues when you move to "number of depths". That being said, the "depth" of a 3D matrix makes a lot of sense to me. Just as you might gain a "depth" perception when you go from a "flat" 2D Cartesian coordinate system to a 3D one.
So to that end, "layers" and "pages" both fit my intuitive concept of the measure of the 3rd dimension. You have a stack of "pages", each with a 2D matrix printed on it — fine.
Between the two, I think "layers" is probably the better term — it seems more general.
However, there is an interesting "natural" relation that springs up if you go with "pages". Consider:
- Columns
- Rows
- Pages
- Books
- Series
"Series" is pretty weak, I admit, but the first four degrees are pretty solid. Nevertheless, I'm still going with "layers".Leave the first comment ▶

More than 5,000 entries have already been received. Some familiar -- and some surprising -- names lead the voting:Lois Hole, writerIan Tyson and Jann Arden (tied), musicianShumka Dancers, danceTodd McFarlane, visual artistMichael J. Fox, actorVinod Varshney, Northern Alberta Institute of Technology, chefTodd currently leads the visual artist category. If you don't know, Todd was born in Calgary, Alberta, and first discovered the world of comic books while attending William Aberhart High School.
Open to all Albertans over 18, the contest will award a grand prize of a trip for two to the Alberta Scene -- a performance artist festival in Ottawa, the nation's capital -- and many secondary prizes. Two of those secondary prize packages -- to be awarded in April -- are McFarlane-based.
The first is a Spawn package featuring a 12-inch Wings of Redemption Spawn action figure signed by Todd McFarlane, a Spawn Armageddon XBox video game from Namco and Todd McFarlane: The Devil You Know documentary DVD directed by Kenton Vaughan and originally released in 2000 by the National Film Board of Canada.
The second is a McFarlane's Sports Picks package featuring NHL Hockey Legends action figures. There are a total of four sets, each featuring Wayne Gretzky and Grant Fuhr in authentic Edmonton Oilers uniforms.
To be eligible for the Grand Prize drawing, contest entries must be received by March 15, 2005. The contest runs through July 30, 2005.
