text: A Gamillas taskforce of the Milky Way frontier command, under General Domel, warps to a certain blue planet. Waiting for them is the Principality of Zeon at its height. Hostilities ensue. General Domel only has access to the resources of the Milky Way frontier command and must continue dealing with whatever commitments he already has as commander on the frontier. Lord Deslar will send no reinforcements or aid beyond whatever basic supplies and weapons are needed for the command to continue functioning. The Principality of Zeon has access to the full breadth of resources it commands at its highest point - but no more. Any portions of Earth or other space colonies not directly conquered or aligned with Zeon are to be counted as effectively neutral, even if planet bombed. General Domel wins if he either receives Zeon's surrender and incorporates them as Second Class Gamillons or simply annihilates them. The Principality of Zeon wins if they can defeat any and all forces Domel can deploy against them. May the best Nazis win. Second Scenario: Who's cooler?

Biggest Loser Couples: Bye, Bye Bernie
March 04, 2008 10:22 PM by Jennifer_Brown
Jay's "head's still kinda foggy," after the loss of his brother Mark. "There really is no justice when it comes to the scale," he cries. In fact, the whole Blue Team seems kinda foggy when trainer Bob pays them a visit. He calls it "like a funeral" in the Blue room, adding, "I could not believe that Roger was sitting in that room!" But Bob is nothing if not good for a pep talk, and he pumps up Team Blue as best as he can.
Meanwhile, over at Team Black, Jillian's trying to give a pep talk of her own, which isn't easy since she's not entirely positive that the female-dominated Black Team can put a win over on the male-heavy Blue.
But there's no time for pining right now — there's a Temptation Challenge to be had. Alison gathers the teams and explains that they will be facing a vending machine, which will randomly spit out goodies. Some of the goodies — packs of Extra gum — will have cash prizes written on the backs of them, while other goodiesare just of the fattening variety (and if a fattening goody falls, the player must eat it). Even better, there's a 1-pound pass in the machine as well, to be used in tonight's weigh-in. Almost everyone scores big in one way or another at the machine. All except Kelly, who only manages to make herself sick on sweets without ever pulling that ever-elusive 1-pound pass. Dan scores huge with $9,500 in cash prizes.
As last week's Biggest Loser Player of the Week, Bernie hikes up the hill to receive his reward. He chooses "gameplay," which gives him the right to assign immunity to any player in the game, other than himself, at tonight's weigh-in.
It's off to the hospital for the Losers, back for a re-check, where the doc upgrades their condition from "critical" to "fair." Each of the players gets to meet with a specialist and learn how they've improved themselves during the past 10 weeks. They also get a special surprise: a visit and pep talk from season 2 Loser, Dr. Jeff. He talks to them about being "Obesity Survivors," and gives them advice on how to keep the ball rolling.
The teams meet up again for another challenge. This time Alison gathers them at the top of a 500-foot canyon. Each team player will have to zipline (up an incline, that is) over the canyon, gathering flags. The team to gather the most flags wins the prize of "Fighter Pilot for a Day" (a cool dogfight flight). This task, more than any other on Loser, challenges the players both mentally and physically, as they have to fight their fears at the same time as taxing their bodies.
It's close, but Kelly's slow performance against Jay lets Team Blue slip ahead, allowing them to take the win.
Back on campus, the guys hit the gym hard. Mark-less, Jay rocks the gym, giving his workout more gusto than ever before. Dan, who accomplishes a workout he'd never thought possible, is overwhelmed with emotion. "It was the most beautiful thing I've ever felt," he says.
It's time for the weigh-in, and Alison begins with announcements. First, she tells the teams that 5 of them have 1-pound passes from the Temptation Challenge. Next, she has Bernie choose his immune player (he chooses Brittany, of course). Finally, she tells them that they're no longer Team Blue and Team Black, but are individuals now. The teams and the trainers are stunned.
Tonight everyone puts up good numbers. Roger hits the coveted 100-pound mark (104 pounds, actually — yeah, Roger!), and Dan comes close, with 99 pounds (woot! woot!).
It's a bad week for Bernie, who ends up below the yellow line by less than one pound. Had he not given the immunity to Brittany, she would've been the one on the chopping block. Instead, it's Kelly and Bernie that are up for Elimination tonight.
The Black Team mourns their tough choice ahead, but Team Blue is celebrating. "We control the game!" Dan crows.
In the Elimination Room, there are tons of tears as Team Black votes for Kelly. But Team Blue has other plans — they pick off Bernie with a vote of 3-2.
"I am extremely proud of what I've accomplished here on campus," Bernie says. "By no means is it over. I'm gonna see this on through."
Today, Bernie is confident with energy levels through the roof. He's lost an amazing 108 pounds and is excited to come back to campus in April.

Nintendo Land by Hyper-WilWatch
©2012-2016 Hyper-Wil
Some more Nintendo (I can't seem to get away from it). This was for the UK magazine Retro Gamer which was running an article on the new Wii U Nintendo Land and its roster of classic characters. I'm not quite sure how you're meant to make all these different characters work together (and in a roller coaster, too) but this is what I was asked to do so hey-ho, into the breach...
Words cannot describe how much I fell in love with this drawing since I saw it on the front cover of Retro Gamer. To be honest, Nintendo Land is a great game, but I wish it was more like this artwork. What I wouldn't give to actually go on that ride. What with Nintendo making a deal with Universal, it could be a reality!
Great work!
Great work!
Did you know that Nintendo Land is actually happening at Universal Studios?
I do but this was done a few years back now so it's a happy coincidence!
Me too. I think the excitement slowed down, but I am still happy that it is finally happening.
Ah ah, so funny
This deserves a DD <3 I love it
Very kind. If the pic made you smile just a little then I consider it a job well done.
Looks like fun.
Good job on this!
Good job on this!
A real thrill ride.
Now we need Nintendo Land IRL. Hey, if Sonic can get his own roller coaster, anything is possible.
Yeah, but there's that funky train that flies around when you jump on it. Yeah. I know.
well done, very well made
Hidden by Commenter
That was the brief I'm afraid otherwise I'd have probably gone a bit mad and included loads of other characters. As it was I snuck in Tom Nook.
I feel like I've seen this before! Was this used for a magazine cover, like GamesMaster or something?
You're right. This is the cover to the current issue (110) of UK mag - Retro Gamer.
EPIC! I love playing Nintendo Land and nice use of each person showing off their game
Your work is getting shared a lot and I really like it
the thing on the balloon staring at samus just might get shot
Great work. Man, if only Nintendo Land was a real theme park.

Roasted Garlic Potatoes
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 40 mins
These tasty spuds, spiced with garlic herbs, will feel right at home alondside breafast, lunch, or dinner entrees. (This recipe is from the cookbook "How It All Vegan".)
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 -5 medium potatoes, cubed
- 1⁄8 cup olive oil
- 8 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons sage
- 2 tablespoons rosemary
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Place the cubed potatoes in a medium bowl and add the rest of the ingredients and stir together.
- Lay evenly onto a cookie sheet or lasagna pan and bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes, until potatoes are golden brown and can be easily pierced with a fork.
Most Helpful
We thought these were pretty good! Our only complaint was that the rosemary ended up like dried sticks in the potatoes. Ground rosemary or crumbled would have been better. Will use a small amount of ground rosemary next time.
This was nice, but the garlic overpowered the dish. The combination of herbs makes this pleasantly different, and next time, I'll try this with half the amount of garlic. I used 2 teaspoons of dried rosemary, but didn't change anything else.
This is my 2nd time making this recipe. I did not want to review after the first time I made it, because I hate giving less than 3 star reviews and I thought in all fairness, it deserved a 2nd chance and some fine tuning. This time, this is what I did: after cubing the potatos, I took the olive oil, garlic, sage, rosemary, salt and pepper and placed in in a bowl by it's self without the potatos. ***Now instead of 8 cloves of garlic, I used the minced garlic that you purchase in a jar. I put about 2 tablespoons of that minced garlic into the herb mixture instead. I then mixed the herb miture really well, and let it sit at room tempeture for about 30 minutes. Then I dipped the potatoes one by one in the mixture then dumped them into the crockpot. I also used a crockpot instead of the oven, I thought to slow cooker would give the herbs a chance to better infuse themselves together. I cooked it on High for 4 hours. A couple of times an hour, I mixed the potato mixture in the crockpot well, to be sure every peice of potato was covered. Also, I didn't want to mixture to gravitate to the bottom of the pot and burn. When finished, the potatoes were perfect. They were moist, the rosemary was not dry and stick-like, the garlic was subtle and not over powering. All in all, this time it came out perfect. With just a few minor adjustments, a recipe can made perfect. I guess it pays to make a recipe 2 times before posting a review.

Perfect for storing small objects!
By Stitchnrunner
from Florissant, MO
About Me Beginner
I use this to store small office supplies such as paper clips, binder clips, rubber bands etc. Lifting the lid exposes all of the compartments so I can easily remove as many different items as I want. The sturdy plastic prevents items from "jumping" from one bin to the next. Small enough to fit perfectly on my work table. The price couldn't be beat! I am very happy with this container!

Couldn't ask for more...
By Kevin
from North SF Bay, CA
I use these containers to store stainless hardware (nuts, bolts, etc...), and I look no further when I need more storage. The lids hold tight, even when tossed in my truck, and the gloss finish on the top makes adding and removing labels easy. I am looking into mounting a few of these above my workbench - they are a great way to store and transport parts, and don't fill with sawdust or filings. Bottom line: Need one? Buy two.

I bought them to organize my chargers and earbuds for phones and tablets. They are fine for that. Good value. Absolute bear to get the labels off them, though. I needed to get the old labels off so I could put identifying labels on each bin. Had to get a label removing solvent.

I use these to sort my electronic components. Best if they came in a size larger with 5 or 6 bins. Molded dividers are nice since they don't move up and allow our stuff to mix. Wish these were sold online

"Garden of Ireland" Top 5 Page for this destination Wicklow by Ruai
Wicklow Travel Guide: 81 reviews and 241 photos
Wicklow is both a green lung for the ever encroaching urban sprawl of Dublin and a beautiful, historic place in its own right. Increasingly its towns such as Bray, Arklow and Wicklow town itself have been forced into the role of commuter suburbs for Dublin but Wicklow County Council continues to fight a gallant battle to retain the separate identity of the county. Needless to say, all Dubliners love Wicklow as do any tourists who go there. But the fear is that it'll become too popular for its own good.
While the primary attraction is the great outdoors, Wicklow has something for most tastes: ancient monastic settlements (Glendalough); beautiful gardens (Mt Usher, Powerscourt); pretty villages (Enniskerry); old Hotels (Hunters); quiet valleys (Glenmalure); excellent walking (the Wicklow 'Mountains' and the excellent way-marked wicklow way); peaceful lakes (Blessington). The Towns are not bad either :-)and if you're into sports theres plenty of choice there too, with riding and Golf particularly well-catered for. When you get hungry, you'll be well looked after and the area boasts many snug and quirky pubs. If I sound like I work for the Wicklow Tourist Board its because I grew up with Wicklow as my playground and think that everybody else should enjoy it too :-)

I loved your tips and am tempted into a month long trip to Ireland this summer. What's the summer weather like?
Great tips from a man who knows. Tried and tested now. Thanks Ruaidhri.
My friend Amy is getting married there in June. Know any good photographers?
I like Avoca really very much. Been there twice . I think if I would live in Ireland I will chose to live in Avoca and commute to work in Dublin :-)) Mary
Excellent page on the Wicklow area! When we visit Eire this is one place we definitely plan to visit as my daughter wants to hike the hills of Ireland. :)

Learning Objectives:
The last in first out (LIFO) method of costing materials issued is based
on the premise that materials units issued should carry the cost of the most
recent purchase, although the physical flow may actually be different. The
method assumes that the most recent cost (the approximate cost to replace
the consumed units) is most significant in matching cost with revenue in the
income determination procedure.
Under LIFO procedures, the objective is to
charge the cost of current purchases to
work in process
or other operating expenses and to leave the oldest costs in the inventory.
Several alternatives can be used to apply the LIFO method. Each procedure
results in different costs for materials issued and the ending inventory,
and consequently in a different profit. It is mandatory, therefore, to
follow the chosen procedure consistently.
This example is based on the following transactions:
Calculations for the above
transactions would be as follows
The basic difference between the various
applications of this costing method is the time interval between inventory
computations. In this example of LIFO costing a new inventory balance is
computed after each receipt and each issue of materials, with the ending
inventory consisting of 1,000 units valued at $7,800. If, however, a
physical rather than a perpetual costing procedure is used, whereby the
issues are determined at the end of the period by ignoring day to day issues
and by subtracting total ending inventory from the total of the opening
balance plus the receipts, the ending inventory would consist of:
Both procedures are appropriate applications
of the LIFO method, even though the cost of materials used and the ending
inventory figures differ. Such a difference does not occur in
FIFO costing
Regardless of the cost flow assumptions, this
later procedure is particularly appropriate in process costing where
individual materials requisitions are seldom used and the materials move
into process in bulk lots, as in floor mills spinning mills, oil refineries,
and sugar refineries. The procedure also functions smoothly for a company
that charges materials to
work in process
from month end consumption sheets which provide the cost department with
quantities used.
The advantages of the last in first out method are:
Materials consumed are priced in a systematic and realistic manner. It is
argued that current acquisition costs are incurred for the purpose of
meeting current production and sales requirements; therefore, the most
recent costs should be charged against current production and sales.
Unrealized inventory gains and losses are minimized, and reported
operating profits are stabilized in industries subject to sharp materials
price fluctuations.
Inflationary prices of recent purchases are charged to operations in
periods of rising prices, Thus reducing profits, resulting in a tax saving,
and therewith providing a cash advantage through deferral of income tax
payments. The tax deferral creates additional working capital as long as the
economy continues to experience an annual inflation rate increase.
The disadvantages or limitations of the last in first out
costing method are:
The decision to adopt the last in first out
method has had increased appeal in the last few years, due to an accelerated
rate of inflation; however its adoption should not be automatic. Long range
effects as well as short term benefits must be considered.

The live-action remake of Akira has been in the works for years now, but has been mired with dozens of false-starts. The project took a huge step forward today, though, as the newest writer for the adaptation has been revealed, and he sounds like a pretty solid choice.
The long-touted Akira film has been delayed by yet another issue, which looks set to push its production back even further.
And hey, it looks cool: Akira DOES translate to live-action in its visuals, even if this is a much milder evocation of the original material.
Jaume Collet-Serra was the last filmmaker involved in Warner Bros. ill-advised in-development live-action adaptation of Katsuhiro Otomos acclaimed manga and anime film. Warner Bros. had constantly been tamping down their ambitions, claiming it would be a trilogy, then two films, then one mega-budgeted one - the budget of which kept slipping.
Another question mark that remains is Garrett Hedlund. The Tron Legacy star has been attached to play the lead role in the movie since November 2011, but it's unknown if he will actually be available whenever Akira does finally get rolling. The trade seems to suggest that if the scheduling does work out, then he will still be the guy.
There's that famous Winston Churchill quote "If you're going through hell, keep going," and I have to imagine WB executives have it taped above their desks as they continue to try and save a project that, in essence, is an expensive adaptation of a Japanese manga that most Americans aren't familiar with, and the ones who do know it are passionately against the idea of an American remake.
It would seem that the live-action remake of Akira just can't seem to stay out of trouble. Since its inception the project has been hitting pothole after pothole, going through rewrites, pre-production shutdowns and even director changes. For a while it looked like things were on track, with Jaume Collet-Serra attached to direct and Garrett Hedlund attached to star (with names like Kirsten Stewart, Ken Watanabe and Helena Bonham Carter rumored for other roles).
This all sounds a lot like the original manga and anime, and the part that doesn't-- Kaneda as a bar owner?-- doesn't seem to change things too much. It's unclear how the Neo-Manhattan setting will compare to the original Neo-Tokyo, or how white actors like Hedlund or Ezra Miller will play characters with blatantly Japanese names like Tetsuo and Kaneda
Watanabe makes a lot of sense to play the role, but it's terrible that the choice is obviously for the wrong reasons. Thanks to his parts in Inception, Batman Begins and The Last Samurai, the actor is probably the most recognized Japanese thespian in America, and therefore a perfect way for WB to say that the entire movie isn't being whitewashed. Politics aside, what do you think of Ken Watanabe playing The Colonel?
I don't know if you heard about this, but there is a movie called Twilight - Breaking Dawn: Part 1 coming out this weekend. All kidding aside, though, Twilight really has taken over the news in the past couple weeks, and that even includes movies outside of the franchise. Just last week we saw the first trailer for Snow White and the Huntsman, a movie starring Kristen Stewart...
Both Miller and Ehrenreich seemed more interested in making their names as serious actors in small-scale films-- Ehrenreich has the favor of the Coppola family and that's no small thing-- but I guess when Warner Bros. comes calling with a franchise and a big paycheck, you'd be an idiot to say no. Now that Akira has a green light we can reasonably expect this long-delayed project to actually happen
Last month, the long-floundering, live-action remake of Akira finally got the greenlight from Warner Bros. As if that wasn't surprising enough, they purportedly even had a front-runner in mind for the lead: TRON: Legacy star Garrett Hedlund. It made sense -- Hedlund is a rising star, and science fiction clearly suits him, since the TRON sequel is his highest grossing role to date. Plus, as Eric pointed out at the time, he's already demonstrated a knack with futuristic motorcycles.
Well, the rollercoaster existence of the live-action, English language Akira remake is finally starting to even itself out, having gotten the greenlight early last week. Tron: Legacys Garrett Hedlund may take on the lead role of Kaneda, but the rest of the rather large cast has yet to be filled, save for two roles
'm amazed that the live-action, English language remake of Akira is still alive. In addition to the fact that the project has been toiling in development for years now, earlier this year the pre-visualization team was let go and director Albert Hughes vacated the director's chair. He was replaced in July by Unknown director Jaume Collet-Serra, but news about the film came to a screeching halt afterward. That is, until this past week.
Even if the live-action version gets underway, we have to start wondering how many changes will be made. Months ago, concept artists Chris Weston took to his blog to talk about the ways Hughes wanted to doctor the original. Most, as youd guess, werent great.
At $90 million Akira would still be expensive, especially for an adaptation of a Japanese manga and animated film that has a relatively small fanbase in the United States, but the studio has always been mysteriously dogged about getting this project made
Chris Weston was working for the past year as a production artist on Albert Hughes planned live-action version of Katsuhiro Ohtomos anime classic Akira. And even though the project reportedly isnt happening any time soon, Weston takes to his blog to inform fans that pulling the plug on the project probably was best for all involved.
When we last heard from Warner Bros' live-action remake of Akira, Keanu Reeves had passed on the project, the studio had shut down the pre-visualization department, and most of the staff working on the film was let go. When writing up the story I mentioned that I was somewhat surprised that Albert Hughes, the assigned director of the project, had managed to hold on to his job through all of the chaos
While Akira may still live, it sounds as though they are now attempting a major overhaul as a means to turn fortunes. Considering the many, many shifts it's actually impressive that Albert Hughes has managed to hold on to his job. With Reeves leaving perhaps now they'll do the right thing and make an effort to cast Asian actors as they should have been doing from the beginning.
Reeves isn't quite as white as much of his competition-- his father is of both Hawaiian and Chinese descent. And yet, he definitely doesn't fit what are some pretty vocal fan requests to cast an Asian actor in the role. Plus, he's Keanu Reeves-- perfect as the out-of-his-league Neo

Six Inland Empire residents have been arrested in connection with a scam that officials say has drained thousands of dollars from four elderly residents in Texas and Nebraska — and police think there may be additional victims.
The scam involved a suspect calling an elderly person and posing as their grandchild. The suspect, who would be armed with personal information about the victim, such as where they lived and their birthday, would then ask for money. Officials said the suspect also had information about the person they were impersonating.
Police were notified of the scam around Jan. 30, when one of the suspects contacted a 92-year-old victim in Amarillo, Texas. According to the release, the suspect claimed to be the victim's grandson and said that he was in a California jail. He pleaded for the victim to send a large amount of money to a residence in Ontario. The victim then spoke to another individual who posed as a law enforcement official and told the victim where to send the money.
The victim, suspicious of the call, contacted local law enforcement officials. The victim was then instructed to send an empty package to the Ontario location the suspects gave.
Ontario police were notified of the situation and told where the package would be delivered. Officials said they found Fontana residents Desiree Marie Delgado, 19, and James Michael Colangelo, 19, at the location with the empty package and arrested them.
After further investigation in Bloomington, Rialto and Fontana, detectives found that there were at least three other victims who were targeted by the scam.
One Nebraska victim sent $210,000 to various locations throughout the Inland Empire, officials said. Only a small amount was recovered.
Two other victims from Texas and Nebraska sent nearly $15,000 in cash to various Inland locations, but the money was intercepted and returned to them.
Four additional suspects were arrested in connection with the scam: Jose Fernando Garcia, 45; Juan Martinez Lopez, 41; Walter Alexander Ayala, 29; and Mikaela Marie Bosch, 19.
All the suspects were booked into West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga on suspicion of grand theft, identity theft, theft from an elder, elder abuse and conspiracy, officials said.
Colangelo and Bosch were also booked on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance, which the release said was methamphetamine.
Officials said they believe there may be more victims. The Ontario Police Department warns people to be cautious of suspicious phone calls in which the person asks for a large sum of money. They suggest contacting other family members or someone in authority who can confirm the caller's identity and location.
Anyone who has been contacted similarly or thinks they may be a victim can contact Ontario Police Detective Craig Pefferle at 909-395-2754.

Sovereign Debt Defaults Dip in 1999 but Not for Long
Joelson, Daniel, Global Finance
A gradual increase in sovereign debt defaults is expected over the next decade.
After a dreadful period in the early 1990s, sovereign debt defaults continued to decline in 1999, registering a 2% drop from 1998, according to a new survey from Standard & Poor's. The year, which saw widespread economic distress and international markets rattled by a devaluation in Brazil, was marked by only one new default-albeit a very notable one in still-troubled Ecuador-as well as a drop in the total and average amounts of debt in default. Celebrations may be premature, however, as 1999's figures may represent little more than the lull before a storm of debt default. Analyzing the longer-term prospects for sovereigns over the coming decade on the basis of recent figures, S&P expects there to be more problems.
Overall, 1999 was a reasonable year for sovereigns. The number of sovereign issuers in default dropped to 28 in 1999 from 32 in 1998, and the default rate dipped from 15.9% to 13.9% in the same period, according to the S&P survey, which covered both rated and unrated sovereigns. In 1999 five countries resumed normal debt service: Venezuela, Moldova, the Cook Islands, C6te d'lvoire, and Vietnam. The figures are especially encouraging when compared with 1990, the year in which Brazil defaulted on a whopping $62 billion in local currency debt. During that year the issuer default rate hit a high of 31%, following a steep climb from the 1970s, when the rate was a mere 2%. In the same year the total value of debt in default reached $335 billion, another record high. By 1997 that figure had dropped to about $75 billion, and although it grew to $102 billion in 1998 and 1999, it remained 69% lower than the 1990 figure. Between 1990 and 1999 average debt dropped from $5.8 billion to $3.3 billion. This relatively more modest decline of 53% can be attributed largely to Russia's default in 1999. At approximately S65 billion, it was the largest default on local and foreign currency debt by a single issuer since the early 1990s.
Part of the reason for the debt figures' improvement since 1990 is that Brazil defaulted on major commitments during that year. In addition, agreements between bank creditors and some of the largest sovereign borrowers not only served to patch up several large individual defaults, but also set precedents for other debt restructurings. The situation has been further helped by the improvement in the economic environment and a gradual change in the mentality of states. Says John Chambets of S&P in New York: "By and large you have had a benign environment, and I think defaults have also declined because of the strength of the Washington consensus." The impact of defaulting on sovereign debt is also becoming apparent, and countries are realizing they will suffer if they default. Chambers adds: "People now have a clear understanding of the consequences of a default."
While last year saw a tide of positive indicators, much remains troubling for sovereigns. Some countries that defaulted in 1998 were unable to dig themselves out of their hole, defaulting again in 1999. Most noteworthy was Russia, which restructured $36 billion of Russian ruble debt that it defaulted on in 1998. In 1999 the country defaulted on foreign currency debt of $28 billion that remained from the Soviet Union era, as well as on $1.3 billion of domestic Ministry of Finance Series III bonds. Russia's situation is sounding alarm bells about a type of debt that has not plagued sovereigns greatly. …

Catalogue of the Wren Library of Lincoln Cathedral: Books Printed before 1801
There was certainly a collection of books at Lincoln Cathedral in the twelfth century, and its origins were perhaps earlier still; but little interest seems to have been taken in building up the library until the second half of the seventeenth century, with the appointment in 1660 of the bibliophile Michael Honywood, a Fellow of Christ's College, Cambridge, as Dean. The present Wren Library's collection of some 8,000 printed books is based largely on his private library, bequeathed to the Dean and Chapter of Lincoln on his death in 1681. Much of Honywood's library was put together during seventeen years of voluntary exile in the Low Countries from 1643. It is consequently rich in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century continental literature, including rare Italian plays, European pamphlets and broadsides interpreting the English political situation, a collection of Dutch ballads, and many religious books and tracts. The splendid English collection includes 1600 STC items, and 2,650 printed between 1641 and 1700, over 100 of which are not recorded in Wing. In addition there are some 100 incunables. This complete catalogue of books printed before 1801 is the first since 1859, and offers the detail and precision required by modern scholars, bibliographers and libraries. Titles are given at some length to indicate subject coverage, and format, pagination, and details of illustrations are recorded. The catalogue notes which books belonged to Honywood, whose importance as a collector is thus established. A set of concordances keyed to the main entries covers STC, Wing, Adams, and Goff.

Alex Sprite Sheet -Werewolf- by DancingSwordWatch
©2006-2016 DancingSword
Here's a sprite sheet of me in my transformed state for any comics I might do. These too, were once Inuyasha sprites.
Excuse me, but can this character be used in an RPG Maker VX game?
If you credit me, and tell me further how you intend to use it in said game, then by all means.
On the first point, ok. On the second one though, I'm not sure where this character would fit. Do you have a description I could go by? Also, do you have this sprite as RPG Maker VX sprite sheet?
you still have the original inuyasha sprites i need some
ithink thats what hes talking about i have the same problem
each of the little werewolves are covered by litlle gray pixels of various shades, i wanted to edit it using paint and said little pixels made it impossible
whys it all pixely on paint? not that i mind, just makes it harder to use.
Cuz... it's made of individual pixels... and what do you mean by "harder to use"? Also, I didn't make this in paint.
ive been looking all over the internet THANKU! could u make some werewolves using naruto or kingdomhearts sprites?
Well thankies! X3 It's been forever and a day since I worked on any sprites, but I'd be happy to give you pointers. ;D

Party Poopers? James Dobson, Religious Right Allies Threaten to Dump GOP If Presidential Nominee Fails 'Family Values' Test
Boston, Rob, Church & State
Focus on the Family Chairman James C. Dobson emerged from a top-secret, closed-door meeting of the Religious Right in Salt Lake City with some tough talk for the Republican Party: If you nominate a candidate who is pro-choice on abortion, I will walk.
Dobson does not plan to be alone. The New York Times reported Oct. 1 that the FOF head was among a collection of Religious Right leaders who met during a gathering of the Council for National Policy (CNP) Sept. 29. Movement leaders pledged to back a third party if the GOP nominates Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City.
The CNP, an umbrella organization of far-right groups, is normally very secretive about its activities, and talking to the press is strictly verboten. But this time it seemed at least some of the coalition's members were deliberately seeking media attention.
The Times reported that the talk about a third party "emerged from a group that broke away for separate discussions" during the CNP gathering.
"Participants said the smaller group included James C. Dobson of Focus on the Family, who is perhaps its most influential member; Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council; Richard A. Viguerie, the direct-mail pioneer; and dozens of other politically oriented conservative Christians," continued The Times.
The story went on to say, "Almost everyone present at the smaller group's meeting expressed support for a written resolution stating that 'if the Republican Party nominates a pro-abortion candidate we will consider running a third-party candidate,' participants said. The participants said that the group chose the qualified term 'consider' because it had not yet identified an alternative candidate, but that it was largely united in its plans to bolt the party if Mr. Giuliani, the former New York mayor, became the nominee."
Although The Times did not identify its source, it seems likely this explosive story was handed to the newspaper with Dobson's blessing to send a not-so-subtle message to the GOP: If you're thinking of Giuliani, think again.
Dobson and Perkins later turned up the heat. On Oct. 4, Dobson penned an op-ed column for The Times, reiterating that the threat of a third party is real.
Dobson said it is "problematic" to "choose a candidate according to the likelihood of electoral success or failure."
"Polls don't measure right and wrong; voting according to the possibility of winning or losing can lead directly to the compromise of one's principles," Dobson wrote. "In the present political climate, it could result in the abandonment of cherished beliefs that conservative Christians have promoted and defended for decades. Winning the presidential election is vitally important, but not at the expense of what we hold most clear."
Perkins, meanwhile, sent an e-mail to FRC supporters saying there is "no real desire nor are there active plans to create a third party" but quickly added, "What was agreed upon was what could be called a statement of principle, to the effect that if both of the major parties nominate a pro-abortion-rights candidate we will consider supporting a third-party candidate.... I do think it is important that our movement draw a line that we refuse to cross."
The Rev. Donald Wildmon of the American Family Association promptly piled on. In an interview with the conservative Washington Times, Wildmon implied that the Religious Right may need to hurt the GOP to teach the party leadership a lesson.
"Every six months before an election, Republicans are our best friends, and six days after the election, they don't even know us," carped Wildmon.
He added, "Here's one thing I'll say about Republicans: They may not win with us, but they cannot win without us. The leadership needs to think seriously and long about that proposition."
Such threats and provocative rhetoric underscore that these are unsettled times politically for the Religious Right. …

ATLANTA -- Students and staff at Atlanta Youth Academy can agree on one thing about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
"He's more than the "I Have Dream Speech'," said Principal Derrick Lockwood.
Nineteen students from the Southeast Atlanta school will go to Washington, D.C. this weekend for the dedication of the King Memorial.
COMPLETE COVERAGE: MLK Memorial
The students have spent each day since classes began last week studying Dr. King, including analyzing his major speeches and other writings.
"He couldn't just freely write the letter from the Birmingham jail because people were watching him all the time," Lockwood told the students during a class. "So they would bring him the newspaper and tissue paper and stuff like that, and he would write on that for hours."
Students at the Christian school want to follow King's path into working on problems within the community, including his commitment to "social gospel," which involves working to improve social problems like poverty-related issues.
The students are also learning many of Dr. King's quotes, which they expect to see on the wall of his memorial this weekend.
"I have decided to stick with love," seventh grade student Brian Strozier said, quoting King. "Hate is too big a burden to bear."
"That means to me, if you keep hatred in your life, you will have a heavy burden on you while the other person is free as they can be," said eighth grader Essence Carter.
Chloe Johnson, 13, read another quote," Life's most persistent and urgent and persistent question is, what are you doing for other?"
"What that means to me is we're always walking around worrying about what we need to get or what our parents need to buy us, but not about what others need," said 12-year-old Andrea Maia.
"Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor," eighth grader Bianca Tate said, quoting King again. "It must be demanded by the oppressed."
"(It means) you have to make it known that you want freedom and you can't sit idly by and let people walk all over you," said 13-year-old Timothy Deshay.
The lessons on Dr. King have made the students think deeper about their own lives.
"I want every single one of you in your own words to be able to express what Dr. King means to you," Principal Lockwood said.

With the recent questions as to why certain players on teams do not wear the team issued helmets, but instead wear the riddell version.
I think it has been stated and known that the reason is due to previous head injuries, and that the riddells are thought to be much more protective.
With this general understanding, then why do coaches make deals with other companies? Your job is not just to win games, but to help these kids become men. They are your kids really as a coach, so why not protect them to the fullest...at least where it really counts, their heads?
Not complaining or flaming, just trying to understand the logic of a coach that says, "sure bobby, you can wear the riddell because it is more protective...the rest of you must wear this new warrior helmet"...

Crossover Day is now behind us as we wrap up days 30 and 31 of the 2016 legislative session. We had a short week, but that didn't stop us from passing a significant amount of legislation. We are also eager to begin working our way through bills passed out of the House, a task that will keep us busy for the rest of the session.
Crossover Day was very long this year as the House passed nearly 50 bills. Unfortunately, most of those bills will probably not clear the Senate as they simply do not have enough time in 10 days to do the work we have done over the last 30 days. The Founding Fathers made it hard, not easy, to pass bills - in the hope that the laws we create will be good ones.

What do you think?
I always have tons of ideas in my head. Some get used for roleplays, others could become fics if I put some effort in them.
But one thing that can definitely make a good base for a story, and sometimes even let the plot unfold in your head easily as you type and plan, is characters. Characters and histories and personalities and relationships. Create a few defined characters in your mind (or on paper, if you prefer to write while you think, I sometimes do) and think about how they would interact. And maybe you can realize that they probably grew up this or that way, and there could probably be something in that history that could be built on to make a plot and something in this or that character's personality that makes it likely that they would act in that plot and make a story.
That's how I do it in my head. But I'm not really a seasoned fic writer, so maybe others have better ideas for how to actually get an idea growing and out into written form. As my ideas most often don't :p And if there's something else you have as a key plot for a fic, I still think creating well developed characters that you know you want to have in the story somewhere is a good driving force for eventually realizing how the plot should unfold.
Something about narrative though, because that's important in forum RPing as well - don't strain yourself too hard to write well or beautifully or complicatedly. Less is more, sometimes, unless there is a mood or setting you really really want to convey to the reader. But even then, I'd say write what feels right.
Then, there are writers who
to struggle with every word and sentence to make them perfect, I guess. Everyone finds their own style.

DSW says its investments in becoming a more "customer-centric" company are paying off, as the retailer reported sales and earnings growth in the second quarter.
West Marine's renewed focus on omnichannel growth seems to be paying off as the specialty retailer reported a big spike in same store sales in the second quarter.
Solid same store sales growth at Rite Aid caused second quarter profits to surge but looming pressure on pharmacy margins prompted the company to reduce its full year outlook.
A Web site affiliated with noted television investment pundit Jim Cramer has reiterated its buy recommendation on shares of Walmart.
Genesco, a specialty retailer of sports apparel and accessories reported fourth quarter earnings of $38.7 million, or $1.63 per diluted share, compared with earnings from continuing operations of $41.5 million, or $1.72 per diluted share, for the same period last year.
PetSmart reported that its fourth quarter earnings were up 36% to $1.24.
Procter & Gamble announced on Thursday a decrease in both first-quarter net sales and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, as core earnings per share rose 5%.

This year, "Unity in the Community" takes on greater meaning as each of us comes out to stand up for Huntington Station. Bring your family and friends to N.Y. Ave and celebrate unity at the parade and enjoy the fair where you'll find live music, food and fun for everyone! 11:00 AM - 5:00 PM
