Let's cancel a "flawed" version of a good game game and give them a half-assed one instead. #1 Agree(58) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply Welshy + 1090d ago #Activision Colour me surprised... #1.1 Agree(39) | Disagree(3) | Report | Reply XB1_PS4 + 1090d ago I got the bundled Declassified game. Only because the assassin's creed one was out of stock.. I figured how bad could it REALLY be, as it turns out it's REALLY bad. As much as everyone likes to bag on COD, a good port of BLOPS2 on Vita would have been amazing. To top it off, they could have possibly worked out the cross play for it also.. I wish Activision didn't think of us as money bags. I want them to have some kind of self respect and only release good, entertaining products. That will most certainly not happen this gen at least. Fingers crossed for next gen. :) Oh btw, this is the only article I've ever seen on N4G with NO disagrees.. That's liable to change by the time you've read this though. #1.2 (Edited 1090d ago ) | Agree(29) | Disagree(4) | Report | Reply HammadTheBeast + 1090d ago Get LittleBigPlanet Vita, people make better shooters than Declassified in it lol. #1.2.1 (Edited 1090d ago ) | Agree(31) | Disagree(2) | Report UltraVegito + 1090d ago Makes me wonder what blacks ops 2 on vita would be like *-* seriously though what were they smoking to decide to ditch a "flawed" product for the monstrosity that is CoDBoD #1.3 Agree(13) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply MuhammadJA + 1090d ago What a waste. #2 Agree(19) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply Yodagamer + 1090d ago So instead of fixing the flawed version, they can it and give us a crappy one with more bugs than a woodland forest. This is the same crap that killed guitar hero and Tony hawk. #3 Agree(27) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply blackbirdi + 1090d ago wtf !!!!!!!!! #4 Agree(10) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply Marked + 1090d ago Activision noticed the lack of pillow talk from microsoft.....remembering their vows "thow shalt not worship anyone above me" They quickly destroyed the golden vita and replaced it with a pile of shit. #5 Agree(29) | Disagree(6) | Report | Reply SilentNegotiator + 1090d ago The way certain Xbox golden boys (the circle that MS pays a ridiculous amount to for early DLC and such, like $50M for DLC that will never make close to that back) snub anything playstation sometimes makes me paranoid about what's going on behind the curtains. Mostly because they usually snub in a way that makes little or no sense. Just saying. I mean, they scrapped a "flawed" version of this year's inevitably most popular game and put it in the hands of a historically crap developer. Tell me how that makes the slightest bit of sense business-wise. Tell me how one of the biggest game publishers in the world goofed THAT HARD with such an easy concept. Call me "paranoid", "fanboy", whatever. Corporations have done worse than get developers to make bad decisions with software regarding their competitors....especially certain corporations that started with a dream of monopolizing the computer industry and more or less achieved that goal. #5.1 (Edited 1090d ago ) | Agree(18) | Disagree(8) | Report | Reply MetalProxy + 1090d ago Your not paranoid. MS has been known to do that very thing. I am curtain there is alot of shady stuff going on out there. #5.1.1 Agree(15) | Disagree(6) | Report SilentNegotiator + 1090d ago I know I'm not really paranoid. But there will always be fanatics to call others "paranoid" when they suggest that corporations are doing shady things. Kind of like a child with a lead-painted toy arguing with you that the corporation that made it is on the straight and narrow. #5.1.2 (Edited 1090d ago ) | Agree(6) | Disagree(4) | Report rpd123 + 1090d ago Not that paranoid. There was that one time that Bungie was developing Halo exclusively for Mac, and then Microsoft bought Bungie and took Halo. One of MS's greatest franchises, stolen out from under Apple. #5.1.3 Agree(9) | Disagree(3) | Report Sheikh Yerbouti + 1090d ago @rpd That's actually fair in business. What he's talking about is undermining a customer because he is in competition with another customer who pads your pockets. That's illegal or the very least very unethical. I think there's a rational reason behind it...albeit disappointing none-the-less. #5.1.4 Agree(5) | Disagree(0) | Report rpd123 + 1090d ago @ Sheikh Oh, yeah I know it's fair business. It's still a dick move, though. (I'm glad they did it though, Halo under Apple was a real time strategy game). I was just saying, it's not that big a leap from buying a competitors game out from under them and making a game bomb on a competitors device on purpose. Not sure if MS paying Activision to make crappy Vita game is illegal, but it is definitely an unethical thing to do. #5.1.5 (Edited 1090d ago ) | Agree(5) | Disagree(1) | Report Sheikh Yerbouti + 1090d ago @rpd I was thinking lemon laws or selling watered down gasoline. Same thing to me...watered down game. It's a be a dick or get dicked world. #5.1.6 (Edited 1090d ago ) | Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report Knight_Crawler + 1089d ago @Silent - You must be about 17 years old. Where were you when Sony personally killed the Dream Cast by keeping all the 3rd party developers on the PS2 and yes belive or not Sony paid those 3 party developers good money to keep certain games on the PS2 only - what MS is doing now is what Sony did in the PS2 era to the Dream Cast and Xbox 1. A companies number one goal is to make a profit, you may think that your favorite console brand loves you but the truth is that they love your money. Yes MS might be doing shady things but do not think that the other two are saints. If MS had giving up after the first Xbox then I think Sony would still be acting arrogant and telling people to get two jobs to buy a PS3 and Next gen dos not start until we say so. #5.1.7 (Edited 1089d ago ) | Agree(3) | Disagree(1) | Report mcstorm + 1089d ago @Knight_Crawler You are spot on there but this is still done by sony now. Look at EA some of there games Like Assassins creed have exclusive DLC on them. Its just business and to give customers a reason to own there console. #5.1.8 Agree(2) | Disagree(1) | Report Lvl_up_gamer + 1089d ago Oh no it's all a giant corporate conspiracy!!! MS are not paying 3rd party developers to deliberately gimp the competitors version of a game. Have you ever heard of "Occam's razor"? It is a principle stating that among competing hypotheses, the one that makes the fewest assumptions should be selected. Why would a well known and respected developer put their reputation at risk and deliberately gimp a AAA title that cost millions of $$$ and time to develop so that the other platform would have an edge with performance? Money? Bethesda made more money on sales with the PS3 version then what MS would have paid. Assuming MS would have paid, it would have been much more beneficial and value to MS to have the money go towards exclusive content, NOT gimping the competitors version of the game which would still sell anyways. No, the real reason is simple. The PS3 is extremely hard to program for and the split RAM makes it difficult to create such large open living worlds. It's no different then the 360 version not looking as good or not performing as well as the PC. MS paid R* $50 million for timed exclusive content. You are out of your mind if you don't think MS got their money back ten fold from consumers who would have originally bought the GTA IV on the PS3 but instead bought it on the 360? Or how many 360's were sold so that consumers would be able to play the timed exclusive content? The deal worked out for both parties. R* got an additional $50 million in their pocket and MS sold consoles which helped establish a larger console dominance in the market. So bottom line....Yes SilentNegotiator, you ARE Paranoid. #5.1.9 (Edited 1089d ago ) | Agree(2) | Disagree(2) | Report cee773 + 1089d ago @knight_crawler No Dreamcast dug its own grave with its inferior CD drive = lack of space compared to DVD not to mention it lacked quite a few buttons on the controller including a right analog,L3,R3 and left and right bumpers on the controller how could devs port games to a console that lacks input that and disc space not to mention it was so easy to pirate a DC game you could burn on a blank CD lol #5.1.10 Agree(2) | Disagree(0) | Report SilentNegotiator + 1089d ago @Knight I never said that it was exclusively a MS move. In fact, I made a point that it isn't unusual for corporations to do things like that. And you must be 10, because there is MAJOR difference between buying developers and bribing developers to make crap software for other systems. Paying developers to do things exclusively for you is 110% fair game. Wink, wink, nudge nudging companies into making shoddy versions of software for other systems is illegal in most parts of the developed world. Dreamcast killed itself, btw. SEGA didn't have any right trying to have a console at that point with how poorly they had managed themselves for years. Plus, they made MISERABLE design decisions - CD? One control stick? What an outdated system it was for its time. You would have to have a fishbowl for a head to think that Dreamcast had any chance of bringing SEGA above their mediocre position. #5.1.11 (Edited 1089d ago ) | Agree(0) | Disagree(1) | Report Lionalliance + 1090d ago I really don't understand how Activision works anymore. #6 Agree(18) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Sarcasm + 1090d ago $$$ > Anything else. #6.1 Agree(11) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply majiebeast + 1090d ago When cod and wow do fall activision is done for hope that happens soon. Disgusting company that shows everything wrong with the gaming industry today minimal effort for max profit. #7 Agree(18) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply torchic + 1090d ago I agree. Activision represents everything that's wrong with the gaming industry right now, especially with this generation of consoles. this has been the worst generation because publishers don't see us as customers, like I read above they just see us as money bags. I pray we get better next gen. #7.1 Agree(13) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Panthers + 1090d ago While I do agree that Activision is bad, I put none of that on Blizzard. I still love their games, especially Starcraft. While they have become a large company, they still seem very passionate about games. I feel their merge with Activision was out of necessity of Blizzard becoming too big too fast and not knowing how to handle it. #7.2 Agree(2) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply ozzywazzy + 1089d ago I heavily disagree. WoW has been stale for about 5 years and milked beyond belief. Diablo 3 was a catastrophe of a game with an elaborate and convenient real money auction house. Blizzard has become indefensible and has clearly adopted activisions practices. #7.2.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report Cam977 + 1090d ago This absolutely horrendous news. I really wish we'd got this and not Nohilistic's "best effort". #8 Agree(12) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply MasterCornholio + 1090d ago So they took what could have been a decent game for the Vita and replaced it with a game made by one of the worst devs in history (Nihilistic Software). Wow Kotick just wow. #9 Agree(16) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Ultr + 1090d ago I have to agree... still have to see a GREAT game from this developer. everything is rushed or just bad #9.1 Agree(4) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply tehpees3 + 1090d ago They would have definitely made a better version. Activision clearly didn't care about this. #10 Agree(9) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply FarCryLover182 + 1090d ago I remember some other team at Acti a few years ago had a WW2 CoD game with squad commands. Would have been good too probably. BUT NO "theres no audience". I shake my fist at you Activision. #11 Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Rivitur + 1090d ago Why that sounds like a brothers in arms rip-off... #11.1 Agree(4) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Heavenly King + 1090d ago as crappy many sites report Declassified to be, it is selling quite good. Which makes you think about the lost opportunity for Activision to expand the COD franchise into more platforms. #12 Agree(2) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply isyourhouseonfire + 1090d ago They were probably too expensive to employ. For the number of people that will buy Call of Duty on the Vita, it just wasn't worth it. Activision needs to make these calls based on business, not personal feelings, and that's exactly what they did. #13 Agree(0) | Disagree(6) | Report | Reply a_bro + 1090d ago Theres no such thing as "Too Expensive" for Activision...Especially when they sell about 20 million copies of COD per Year. #13.1 Agree(6) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Sarcasm + 1090d ago If Activision actually made this a good game, think of the potential real sales it could have been for them. If they had a studio that developed at 60fps, full fledged COD experience on the Vita, it could have elevated the Vita into space! #13.2 Agree(7) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply SAE + 1090d ago i think the reason to move it is to release it with black ops 2 ... #14 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply bobshi + 1090d ago Sony should have lent them a 1st party studio to make sure either BO2 Vita turned out to be a decent port, or at least help with Declassified given they only had 4 months dev time. It is meant to be a console selling game, but it is anything but. #15 Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply mafiahajeri + 1090d ago Killzone is the only Vita FPS worth mentioning. #16 Agree(10) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply WeskerChildReborned + 1090d ago Wow well this sucks, instead we got what is Declassified, possibly first COD on a portable and the worse COD in the series, hopefully their will be a decent cod game coming out for PS Vita. #17 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Lethalsuperhuman + 1090d ago WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!! !! AND THEY WANNA TELL US NOW!!!! The question I want answered is "How bad was it?" and "Was it better than Declassified?" If it was worser than declassified then i will understand. The thing that really bothers me is if the flawed one have at most 12 vs. 12 in MP and in game chat. That was the dumbest move i ever seen and why TF will you give it Nihillistic. IDGAF anymore. Hopefully, they dont switch Killzone Mercernary to Killzone Unknown. Will the next Call of Duty on the Ps vita be a port? #18 Agree(0) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply SaffronCurse + 1090d ago I hope so, since Nihilistic is done with Retail games. #18.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply 3GenGames + 1090d ago Shame they took a studio that had a chance to do something different and gave it to their guys who had been writing this same game for the last 5 years? Way to take the project away from people that probably would have really cared about bringing the best product/game to the table. #ActivionGenius #19 (Edited 1090d ago ) | Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply InTheLab + 1090d ago Vicarious Visions should make another Spider-Man and Beenox should do something else. Actually, Treyarch should make another Spider-man and lay off the CoD for a few years. #20 Agree(2) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply DJ + 1090d ago Why not just release Black Ops 2 on Vita 6 months after with "bonus content" or something? Activision really screwed up. #21 Agree(3) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Drainage 1089d ago | Trolling | show | Replies(1) BlackWolf + 1089d ago HAHHAHHAHHAHHAHHAAHHA #23 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Add comment You need to be registered to add comments.

David Lock bags Oxford masterplanning job
David Lock Associates (DLA) has been commissioned by Oxford City Council to masterplan the Oxpens district of the city
The Milton Keynes-based studio is producing a masterplan and supplementary planning document for the west end site close to Oxford city centre.
One of Oxford's last remaining brownfield sites, the plot represents the city's single biggest re-development opportunity according to DLA.
The site is home to several buildings including a post office and a 1984 Grimshaw-designed ice rink which will be kept.
MJP Architects provide specialist advice on building design for the project. DLA previously prepared the council's Oxford West End Area Development Framework.
A consultation will be launched in the Autumn.

I recently graduated from Portland State University majoring in Psychology and a Ronald E. McNair Scholar. My interest in Pervasive Developmental Disorders has stemmed from my own personal experience with Asperger's Syndrome as well as having two wonderful young boys who are also diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome. That interest has been fostered at Portland State University through my interaction with other faculty along my academic path as well as my work within the Autism Community.
In my undergraduate experience I have been privileged to work with many people within the Autistic community. I have worked as a lab assistant with Dr. Katie McDonald, a community psychologist and co-investigator with the Academic Autism Spectrum Partnership in Research and Education. I have worked as a research assistant with Dr. Christina Nicolaidas from Oregon Health and Sciences University on A.A.S.P.I.R.E. I also recently worked under the tutelage of Dr. Thomas Kindermann in his lab as an undergraduate research assistant and as his mentee, where I was priviliged to work on a long term research project seeking to find the relationships between student engagement and student social constructs.
My academic goal is to achieve my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Counseling and General counseling. I hope to utilize my degree to work with families with Pervasive Developmental Disorders and other disabilities.
I recently was recently working as an intern and volunteer with the Autistic Self Advocacy Network - Portland Chapter and am now an active member. I just relinquished my position as technical advisor to the current chapter president. I was recently connected as a volunteer mediator for Portland Parent Union in their Restorative Listening and Healing project as well as a volunteer intern.
I am currently a Person Centered Planning Facilitator trained by the Oregon Council on Disabilities as well as a passionate advocate for children who experience disabilities. I help parents and children advocate for their rights during the IEP process as well as help to speak for and represent the child in those meetings. I position myself to be sure that the child is heard both figuratively and in reality throughout the meeting by all adults present.

I don't sew mens shirts but I'd like to find out if there is any nice shirting fabric which mimics the no-iron shirts (100% cotton) in the stores.
Any online source?
Thanks in advance.
------- Deepika
Founder, PatternReview.com
Blog: http://www.deepikablogs.com
I've been told that the wrinkle free finish is added to RTW shirts after they are sewn. The only place I've found that claims to have a wrinkle-free shirting cotton is this company in Singapore, but due to the price and distance I haven't tried them. I hope I'm wrong and someone can tell us of a good source!
fabric -- Edited on Today at 12:45 PM --
I've seen wrinkle free shirtings at Fabric Mart. I would also check with Michaels fine fabrics fabrics for shirtings.
------My grandmother taught me to sew when I was 10, and I've been sewing ever since.
I thought as much but I figured I should ask just in case someone has had any luck finding any nice fabrics for shirts which arent this high maintenance.
I just sent an email to Michael.
The wrinkle-free shirts are the ones I've been buying for John for 7 or 8 years. They are a snap to care for - but their life expectancy is minimal. Whatever they have to do to the fabric really weakens it, and in a year or so of use, the edges on collars, cuffs, etc split and fray. Don't get me wrong: I love them, but I am glad I haven't sunk my own time into making these shirts. When I buy them, I know that 50 wearings is the max he's going to get from each one, and that makes them kind of expensive. Worth it for those of us who despise ironing shirts, but definitely not cheap.

Where are we going, and what am I doing in this handbasket?
Matthew 25:40 (New International Version)
The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
And even though the ones I've bought are 100% cotton, they hold perspiration odor. I've decided to just get cotton/poly blends, which are less expensive and last longer while wrinkling just a bit more.

Cosmos capitalize on walks, beat Mill RiverMay 09,2014SOFTBALL
Springfield 8, Mill River 1
NORTH CLARENDON Oh those base on balls. Mill Rivers Carly Ward gave up four hits, three by KK Haskell, including two doubles, but it was her 10 walks that did in the Minutemen.
Sarah Locke got the win striking out nine over five innings for the Cosmos. Brooke Bove had the only hit for Mill River and scored its lone run on a passed ball. Mill River (3-6) plays at Otter Valley today where the Otters will be dedicating the field to Pattie Candon.

Guillemot went on to talk about the five "online and social breakthroughs" that each Ubisoft game will need to hit in order to ensure players spend more time in-game. "Those breakthroughs are systemic gameplay, co-op and social, low barriers to entry, user-generated content and personalized experience through analytics." Examples given by Guillemot include Watch Dogs' and The Division's solo, co-op and multiplayer experiences that will hopefully increase the amount of time a player spends with the game and entice players who may otherwise ignore any of these traditional modes.
Guillemot also mentioned that two of Ubisoft's upcoming open-world games, Assassin's Creed 4 and Watch Dogs, are among the five most pre-ordered games on PS4 and Xbox One.

Make sure you are standing at the back, not at the front is the only thing I can say to that. I've never downed from it but I've seen people go down and they were the ones who where standing by the exit

How to Check for Price History
There's a really good chance that you might find yourself in the scenario above within the next couple of weeks - there's an item that you don't really need, but if it's a good enough deal, you'd pull the trigger. The question now is, how do you know whether or not you're getting a good deal?
When looking through ad scans this holiday season, be sure to use the Slickdeals search tool before actually planning your purchases so you're aware of an item's price history. The Slickdeals community truly is a wealth of resources that has crowd-sourced the best prices for thousands of products with all the caveats of coupon stacking and rebate redeeming. This information is freely available not just for today's deals, but also for deals in the past. To figure out if you're really getting a good deal, here's what you'll need to do:
- Enter a keyword in the search box on the upper right corner of the homepage. In this case, the keyword would be '42" TV', but you could be as specific as you'd like to be.
- You'll see all the deals that have been posted with the keyword you've searched for. To find out which deals were worthwhile, click on either the "Popular Deals" or "Frontpage" tabs. Keep in mind that there are times when the best deals go out of stock before they hit the front page, so it's always a good idea to check "Popular Deals".
- The deals are listed in chronological order. To get the highest rated deals, click on "Rating".
- Voila! Pick the relevant deals that are comparable to what you're searching for and decide whether or not you're really getting a good deal!
For the $299 42" TV scenario, a quick search would tell you that there have actually two other times when 42" TV's have been less than $299 this past year:
In this case, "deal" was used definitively as "best price". Naturally, it will be up to you to decide whether or not waiting for a better deal is worth your while. If you do decide that the Black Friday experience is what you're after, be sure to read through our community's Black Friday Camping Tips!

If you didn't select walk away, you have a bad case of SD psychosis.
I'm gonna send my wife to the gym right now.
Instead it was "Use the search box"... kinda already figured that one out.
(Yes, I understand that there are people that cannot use the search box. This post will leave them still unable to use the search box.)
Oh, and your example misses threads like this one: http://slickdeals.net/f/4234164-Master-Thread-Target-TV-Clearance-LCD-LED-Smart-TVs-Deals-at-Target-YMMV?v=1
Where there have been 42" for under $299. Yes, clearance, but about as hard to get as the BF Doorbusters. (And you can at least swing by Starbucks and hit the restroom and sit in a nice heated / cooled car when looking for Clearance stuff.)
The point I was trying to get across is that most of the time, Slickdeals purchases are impulse buys ("I don't really need this item, but this looks like a great price and I might need it at some point!") and the search tool helps users realize that sometimes, it's not really that great a price if you check previous deals.
I'm gonna send my wife to the gym right now.
In second or third worlds, their wives already have enough muscles
Also, consider using less rooms in your house.
i was like totally pumped up when i saw the camel camel camel like icons and charts, i was like WoW, that would be so neat, and then i click in and saw this primitive method, anyone has half a brain would figure this out...
thanks captain obvious.

I would every JPG, in whatever size to "fill" each PDF page, and every PDF page to be the same. I also have access to tools like pdftk, pdfjam.

Diet Coke: Credit
Bicoastal/London-based Park Pictures' director Ellen Kuras pays tribute to the all the hard work that goes on behind the magic of the movies in the new :60 "Credit" for Diet Coke out of Wieden+Kennedy, Portland. The spot features a medley of individuals collaborating to create a film: from writers, actors, cameramen, grips, and stunt men, to the man applying the advertisements to a billboard. Diet Coke inspires all of these individuals to "Stay Extraordinary." The spot debuted on last Sunday's 84th Annual Academy Awards. "Credit" opens on a shot of the Hollywood sign before cutting to a screenwriter putting the finishing touches on a script. The vision is quickly realized as we cut a shot of a young man rehearsing lines while anxiously awaiting his audition. The project moves further along the pipeline as we see it evolve through design concepts, to lighting and technical tests on set, and the shoot. After the billboards go up, their dedication culminates in the theatrical release of the movie. Finally, we see a live audience comfortably settling in to experience the nostalgia of the cinema with their popcorn and Diet Coke. Wide doors of a studio set close as we see the super, "Not all stars appear on-screen. Stay Extraordinary."

"Not all stars appear on-screen."
I don't get a huge sense of this idea from the ad.
Of course, there's so many clips of so many people, that there's not really time to 'get to know' anyone, and to build an affinity and see them all as stars. 60 seconds is of course pretty tight for that anyway.
McDonalds I think have managed a similar-ish idea in 60 seconds though, though with less focus on the idea of 'stars'.
Still not bad

Plug an HDMI-only laptop into a VGA-only projector?
I'm looking at new laptops, and the one at the top of my list has everything I need ... Except that the only video-out port is HDMI. The problem is that a big part of my job involves presenting, so I need to be able to plug in to projectors that only have VGA ports. What are my options?
Can you use VGA for video and HDMI for audio?
A friend is trying to connect her PC (Windows 7) to a projector for video and a receiver for audio. The projector does not support HDMI, so she's using VGA. The receiver does have HDMI, so she's using that for audio. If she doesn't plug in the projector, the audio plays fine. As soon as she connects the VGA, HDMI audio is no longer an option in the Sound settings and audio starts playing through the laptops built in speakers. Is there a way to have HDMI for audio and VGA for video at the same time? [more inside]

Oh boy, are you naive. I assume you are so young that you have no relatives who lived through the last depression to give you a clue as to what to expect. If you did, you'd probably brush them off as "old windbags." And even '29 could very well pale in comparison to what is to come.

Cougar Mountain homeowner shoots intruder
May 3, 2013
By Staff
NEW — 5:30 p.m., May 3, 2013
A 56 year-old Issaquah man shot an intruder breaking into his home on May 3.
In the 18500 block of Northwest Montreux Drive, the as-yet unidentified homeowner heard someone ringing his doorbell just before 1 p.m. After failing to recognize the mid-20s man that was outside his door, the homeowner ignored the summons. A few moments later, the suspect threw an object through a glass front door and entered the house.
The homeowner responded to the sound and the two men struggled. The homeowner fired two shots from his handgun, striking the suspect once in the shoulder.
A delivery truck driver saw the scuffle, heard the shot and made the initial 911 call at about 1:05 p.m.
The suspect was transported to Harborview Medical Center. The police have yet to charge him.

Dear SEPTA Train Passengers
Dear SEPTA Train Passengers,
Hi there. You may have seen me: I'm the chick with the sketchbook that sometimes sits next to you, or near you, on the train to and from work every day. You may notice me wrestling my sketchbook out of my backpack, earnestly trying to get some work done on the bumpy ride into or out of the city. You may have even politely craned your neck to see what it was I was drawing. How you doin'.
Because we live in a polite society populated by less than polite people, I'm going to share a few things with you, of which you may not already be aware. These items may or may not apply to other artists, under other circumstances, so I can't say for sure. You may find these insights helpful. Feel free to take notes, or print them out, but whatever course of action you decide to take, please do try to follow them from this point forward.
1. It's OK to talk to me.
I'm a nice person, but I'm also pretty quiet. You're more than welcome to say hello to me, ask me if I'm a professional artist or art student (I'm not, but thank you for thinking I might be!) or comment on my work. I can even take criticism, as long as you're not being a jerk. If I don't continue the conversation, it's probably because I'm really shy, or because I'm trying to draw.
2. It's not OK to talk to me TOO MUCH.
I have a 30 minute commute each way. In that we've already covered the "I'm not a professional artist or art student" portion of this post, you can assume that I do not spend the entirety of my day drawing. In fact, those precious 60 minutes of commute time are the only time that I have to actually get in some drawing, and improve my skills.
I am usually happy to answer your polite questions, and even joke with you in a friendly manner, but it becomes very frustrating to me when your "talking" time infringes upon my sketching time.
3. Don't be offended if I don't make eye contact
See #2. Sometimes, no matter how often I say, "I really only have enough time to draw on the train", people just can't take the hint, and launch into lengthy, detailed, often horrifyingly revealing conversations with me. As yet, I have not been able to find a polite way to excuse myself from these conversations, except to resume my drawing, and hope that they will not want to converse too much with the top of someone's head.
4. Do not ask too many questions about what I'm drawing.
This often becomes embarrassing for both of us, and tiring for me. You don't know how many times I've heard, "Is that a guy? Are you drawing a guy? Is that someone you know? Is that your boyfriend? What is he holding? Is that a golf club? Is he a golfer? Are you drawing Tiger Woods? This one time, my Dad met Tiger Woods..."
Please stop. If you want to know what I'm drawing, you can ask me once, and end it. If you want to know what I'm GOING to draw, just shut up and let me fucking finish it, or I will beat you with my sketchbook.
I am a decent artist, so if you try to guess TWICE what I'm drawing, and get it wrong both times, you're either being an asshole, trying to embarrass me, or are a complete fucking moron, and I'm really regretting having chosen the seat next to you.
5. I am not holding a turd
The lumpy gray thing that I have in one hand is called a Kneaded Eraser. When you buy it, it starts out like a 2" x 1" gray square, and you have to work it and knead it with your hands. It's much more gentle on paper than a hard rubber eraser, and when it gets dirty you just knead it until you get to a clean part.
It is not a piece of turd. When I take it out, you don't have to gasp in horror and inch away from me like I'm going to rub gray feces all over you.
6. Do not take my polite replies to your questions as an invitation to convert me to any given religion.
It's alarming how many conversations go like this:
"You're a very good artist."
"Thank you very much."
"It's really a talent."
"Thank you."
"It's really a blessing to have that kind of talent."
"Um. Yes."
"Have you welcomed Jesus Christ into your heart for blessing you with such talent?"
You know what religion I am? I'm the religion that doesn't discuss God with freaky people on the train who can't identify what conversations are inappropriate for complete strangers. I regularly attend the church of Please Leave Me The Fuck Alone Already, Lady.
7. I am not a babysitter
I don't always draw from "real life", sometimes I draw illustrations and cartoons. Just because you see a cute, fuzzy animal emerging from my pad, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not use it as a way to distract your child from climbing all over you, the seats, and other passengers, like a shrieking primate.
"Look Billy! Look what she's doing! Billy, get off that man's lap and come here -- see what she's doing? Isn't that pretty, Billy? Why don't you ask her what she's drawing? Maybe if you ask nicely she'll draw something for you. Just sit still and watch her for awhile so Mommy can sob quietly into her hands."
As uncomfortable as it is for me to have to talk to people while I'm drawing, it's DOUBLY SO to have to do it while your little hellion is bouncing up and down on the seat next to me or -- worse yet -- sticking his face three inches away from the paper while I'm drawing. I am not a babysitter. I don't even like children. Seriously -- go Google the world "Childfree", and I promise that you'll never want your child anywhere near me, ever again.
If you insist on using me as a ready-made distraction so you can get two minutes of not wanting to shoot yourself in the uterus, I'm going to turn the page and immediately start drawing the nastiest, most explicitly pornographic picture I can think of, all for your little snotmonkey's entertainment.
8. No, I'm not drawing Simba / Lady / Tramp / Nemo OR ANY OTHER CHARACTER.
I know who you are. You're the guy who takes his kids to the zoo, points at the lion, and goes, "Look, honey, it's SIMBA AND NALA."
This is going to come as a shock to you, but Disney is not the end-all be-all of all entertainment. Just because I'm drawing a lion does not mean that I'm drawing "The Lion King." Just because I'm drawing a dog does not mean it's "Lady and the Tramp."
I am by no means a great artist, but I am GOOD, and certainly good enough to draw easily recognizable animals and figures (my biggest problem is anatomical perspective, not drawing things that are easily identifiable. I got that down quite awhile ago.) If I'm drawing a collie, or a poodle, or a whippet, it looks like a collie, a poodle or a whippet, it does not look like a cocker spaniel. Just because I'm drawing ANY BREED OF DOG does not mean I must be drawing "Lady."
And if I tell you no, it's not "Lady", it's just a dog, it's not OK to pause for five seconds, and then ask, "...Is it Tramp?"
It is also not OK to wait an additional five seconds and ask, "Can you draw me a picture of Lady and the Tramp?"
I swear I will stab you in the face with my pencil.
9. I am neither a priest nor a psychiatrist.
If you start talking to me, and insist on dragging it out into an entire, excrutiating conversation, please try to keep it topical. Please do not start telling me about your last ObGyn appointment, body hair problems that you have, or the condition of your last bowel movement. Seriously. I'm talking to you because I'm really trying to be nice, not because the grotesque details of your life actually fascinate me.
I think that about covers it! I don't know if any of this will actually help any other artists out there, but it's certainly gone a long way towards help me not want to kill people anymore.
Thank you, Philadelphia!

Indications and expectations for neuropsychological assessment in routine epilepsy care. Report of the ILAE Neuropsychology Task Force, Diagnostic Methods Commission, March 2015.
The major challenge is the proper evaluation and use of technology and other diagnostic methods to improve care of patients with epilepsy when there is such a broad range of available technology and expertise across the globe. At one extreme is the optimal best practices in developed societies. The other is optimal use of limited resources in underdeveloped economies. These issues touch upon education as well as assessments and utilization of diagnostic methods, and emerging diagnostic methods and disciplines.p

And that's cute too with the butterfly on the snout of the tiger.
thats so awsome
I gotta say, this is pretty awesome!! What a unique wedding idea!
This is ADORABLE!!!
How amazing WildSpiritWolf, you never cease to amaze me with your fantastic sculptures!
A snow leopard and a wolf...? I wonder what the cubs will look like? O_o
I don't think it's a snow leopard, it has a tiger's head, but stripes aren't very tiger-like... Maybe it's already a cross? So the cubs would be snow leopard/tiger/wolf mixes?! Wow. xD
Ah I thought correct then. (: I'm so happy for both of you, having a fur wedding must be the best thing ever, but I have to ask... How do your family members and/or friends feel about it? I don't know if me and my fiancé would be able to do something like that for our wedding!
^-^ It is hardly a "fur" wedding lol. Everything is normal, outside garden ceremony, suit and tie... There are just a few little key hidden things throughout the wedding that really says "who we are". My wedding band is gold paw-prints (pic on my FA page), cuff-links are paws, and the cake topper is our fursonas. Most of our family does not know we are furs. This cake topper is AMAZING. It's beautifully done and most of all, shows the true side of what our love for each other is made of. I am curious though how many people at the wedding will see it as normal and how many will brew curiosity... especially with my fursona being a "blue" wolf lol. Not that I am not proud of being furry, but I don't like going around to everyone and shouting.

Eastern Orthodox Encounters of Identity and Otherness
Values, Self-Reflection, Dialogue
Edited by Andrii Krawchuk, Thomas Bremer
|Publication Date
|January 2014
|Hardcover Ebook (EPUB) Ebook (PDF)
|Palgrave Macmillan
From diverse international and multi-disciplinary perspectives, the contributors to this volume analyze the experiences, challenges and responses of Orthodox churches to the foundational transformations associated with the dissolution of the USSR. Those transformations heightened the urgency of questions about Orthodox identity and relations with the world - states, societies, and the religious and cultural other.
The volume focuses on six distinct concepts: Orthodox identity, perceptions of the 'other,' critiques of the West, European values, interreligious progress, and new and uncharted challenges that have arisen with the expansion of Russian Orthodox activity.

Jamie MacBain has a pretty classy gig over at the lounge at Bourbon Steak, Michael Mina's restaurant in Georgetown's Four Seasons. Make that two classy gigs--he also does a weekly shift at the Passenger. In his younger years, however, he put in some time slinging beers to college kids in Worcester, Massachusetts. In honor of St. Patrick's Day this weekend, MacBain shared the story of his worst shift ever, which happened to go down on one of the drunkest days of the year.
"It was my first bartending job, and it was St. Patrick's Day. It was at this steakhouse, Cactus Pete's Steakhouse & Saloon. One side was a steakhouse and on the other side was a bar separated by swinging saloon doors. Worcester loves its St. Patrick's Day. The parade would go by the restaurant and we'd take out all the stools; all the bar tables would come out. We opened at 10 AM. So it's, like, 2 PM, and the parade has gone by already. We're packed, and we have police on the exit and entrance on either side. It's standing room only--some of the people have been there since 10. And this fight breaks out at my end of the bar.
"I say fight, but the room is so packed you couldn't even throw a punch if you wanted to. It's more like two guys grab each other and start doing the pushing back and forth thing. And so the cop from the back, who was closest, comes up. And I see it, and the other bartender working sees it, and we're up on the bar just about to jump in and break the two guys apart--this was back in my younger days when I thought I could jump over a bar. Now, not so much.
"As I'm going over the bar, the cop pulls out his mace and just lets loose the mace in this crowded bar. I mean, he totally overreacted. I get a faceful of it because I'm blocking the guy fighting behind me. We get the two separated, and I go back behind the bar, and I am just, like . . . head in the trash can, throwing up. People are yelling at me like, "Hey, hey, can I get a beer!" And I look up and I'm crying and all the mucus is draining out, and I'm like, 'Yeah, as soon as I'm done,' and then it's back to the trash can. All I'm thinking is, Make this end. We closed the bar shortly after that.
"Everybody has stories about computers going down, and it is the worst feeling. But I think getting maced while you're working--that has to be on the top of my list of really bad bar shifts."
Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone, and remember to tip your bartenders well. Who knows what manner of shenanigans they'll be putting up with this weekend.

Diet Coke design dissected
In September, Coca-Cola North America launched a stylish, limited-edition package design for fall. Here, Diet Coke brand director William White talks about the project.
Packaging World:
William White:
Why did you feel a new can design would be appropriate for fall?
What role does packaging play in building sales for a major brand such as Diet Coke?
Packaging World:
What was your role in the development and implementation of the limited-edition Diet Coke can for fall?
William White:
I oversaw a team that led the integrated thinking and strategy to create this limited-edition visual identity and package for the brand.
What is the "unique voice of Diet Coke," i.e., its brand proposition?
Diet Coke is a brand for individuals everywhere living extraordinary lives. We created this new package in a nod to those consumers as we entered the new fall season.
How does the new design reflect that brand proposition?The new can design is the latest evolution of the brand's "Stay Extraordinary" campaign. The stylish new look for this limited-edition Diet Coke package is a reflection of the self-assured, confident, and aspirational people who enjoy Diet Coke every day.
Why did you feel a new can design would be appropriate for fall?
Fall is a time for new looks and renewed energy, and Diet Coke's new can design gives an uplift that celebrates the season.
Related Sponsored Content
What are the challenges of working with a very well recognized package design?We actually used the recognition of the package design as an opportunity. Because consumers know and connect with the logo, Diet Coke was the perfect brand to execute this new look. The new look is self-confident in both its overstatement and understatement of the brand monogram. The new design features a section of the Diet Coke logo, cropped to feature the "D" and the "k," set against the brand's signature silver backdrop, creating a bold, tailored look for fall.
What role does packaging play in building sales for a major brand such as Diet Coke?
Packaging is of course very important across all of the Coca-Cola brands. In the instance of this new Diet Coke package, we are reinterpreting the brand iconography to drive reconsideration. By contemporizing it for the season, we are opening it up to new users.
