I can't blame anyone for not licensing books that didn't already have a high profile. As Adam-Omega points out, fans don't tend to wait for stuff that they know they want, and in most cases, once a fan translation of something is posted -- even a crappy one -- the series becomes worthless to publishers. Their margins are slim enough already, and if there's a free alternative to whatever they'd have to put out at great expense and trouble, why bother?
That being the case, a publisher's best shot would be to find something awesome before the fans do and hope it generates enough buzz to become a surprise hit. But to do that, it makes sense that they'd have to look mainly at titles that haven't already had a big anime/manga/gaming/figure circus around them.

Light novels are Japanese novels that want to be anime when they grow up.
They often feature an extremely sparse writing style that's little more than a script (possibly so the author can crank them out quicker), manga-style illustrations, and lots of dialog consisting of dots ("....................."), which are spoken by characters conforming to late-night anime stereotypes.
They're usually written as series, and average about a million volumes in length. Their publishers tend to target junior high/high school students, though there are a couple of publishers that aim a bit older.
In Japanese bookstores, most of them are grouped together in the Light Novel section, usually located near the manga. Outside of that section, whether a novel is or isn't "light" has to be argued case-by-case based on content. A manga-style cover is a strong hint, but not proof positive.

It really is stupid that light novels have been declared dead here when so many of the popular anime on Crunchyroll right now started as a light novel. Seriously, you can't declare light novels dead when they weren't even given a chance. Just don't censor like Viz did with Shakugan no Shana and piss off the fans who would've supported it or license obscure stuff no one's ever heard of like Seven Seas and I think they have a chance. Haruhi Suzumiya did well enough to have its entire series translated to completion. HS is popular among people who follow anime. (Yen Press also seems to be doing okay with Spice and Wolf last I checked.)
Like right now if someone were to try to start up a light novel line Beyond the Boundary would be a great place to start. Then use profits to license more and more obscure or older novels. Use popular anime as a starting point. Boogiepop had an anime and the novels sold well enough for Seven Seas to license more of the series and try to start a light novel line. I already listed a few things I feel they did wrong in a previous post, but the main point I'm trying to make is that everything they licensed was obscure and had no anime or the anime was too old to give attention to the novels.
Basically what I'm saying is that it's premature to declare light novels dead when they weren't even given much of a chance. If someone were to license popular series like Sword Art Online, Beyond the Bounday, etc. that started as light novels they'd have a very successful light novel launch and then could move into licensing more series. Maybe even partner with Crunchyroll to advertise something like "read the original story!" It seems like everyone's given up or are too scared to fail. Huge respect for Yen Press though.

Strawberry Panic = adapted into an anime and manga. (Our most popular Light Novel series ever, btw.)
Ballad of a Shinigami = spawned an anime and manga.
Zero's Familiar = several anime and manga based on it.
Kanokon = been adapted into anime and manga.
Pita-Ten = side stories for the popular Tokyopop manga, also has an anime.
Boogiepop = spawned a live action movie and anime.
Kage Kara Mamoru = has a manga adaptation. [We licensed this to release it in the YA novel section, not the manga one, originally.]
Gun Princess = manga adaptation by Kodansha and from the creator that went on to do Makai Ouji. [Again, originally meant to be sold into the YA novel section.]
Vamp! = shorter vampire series from the creator of Baccano! [Again, was meant for the YA novel section.]

LNs were never given a chance because 'MERRIKUNS (only talking about the US market here as I live there) are lazy as hell and hate reading. Simple as that.
I'd love to see more actually get published, but Americans don't like to read actual BOOKS.

That is definitely not true.
Light novels were given a chance, and most of them failed.
The majority of the potential customers for light novels would be manga and anime fans. It may, just may be true that not enough of us like to read. I do not believe that it is true, but I have no information about the reading habits of other fans.
All that I really do know is that I am a manga and anime fan and I love to read. I read mostly science fiction, including the Haruhi novels. I do read actual books.
I am willing to believe that there are not enough anime and manga fans to buy the books to generate the volume of sales that would be necessary to make the books profitable.
But that is because of the expense involved in publishing the books. It is not because people do not want to read.
There is a lot of evidence to support the argument that Americans, in general, still like to read.
It has been said many times that light novels are just not profitable. Unless the sales are supported by a fan base that is also interested in other aspects of the series, such as manga and anime. That is why Haruhi and Spice and Wolf have been successful when others have failed. Also, Yen has the support of a major publisher, which was explained in another thread in this forum.
Personally, I believe the argument that light novels, in general, are not profitable.
I have no doubt that if they were profitable more of them would be published.

A little good news for those mourning the death of the translated LN:
Tokyo Otaku Mode will be serializing Satoshi Hase's "Beatless" at some point in the near future. This is a legit translation -- there was a write-up on it in Newtype recently, where the original was published.
I don't know much about Satoshi Hase or how "light" the actual content will be; he's done straight-up SF in the past, and this book did take the 3rd spot in Japan's annual "SF ga Yomitai!" ("I Wanna Read SF!) poll. However, the illustrations and the fact that it's from Newtype suggest it's at least somewhat "lighter."
Anyway, the serialization will start at the site below. Already, you can see some artwork and character write-ups.

|Here's a question: If you're a light novel fan, do you want to read only light novels? There's a decent selection of Japanese SF, fantasy, and horror available in translation nowadays as well, some of which has even inspired anime. Does that fill the gap for you in any way?

Short answer: No, I do not want to read only light novels.
Longer answer:
I have never seen a satisfactory definition of what makes a novel "light," so I really do not make the distinction. They are all novels to me.
I really like Yukikaze. Is that a light novel? I really do not know, or care.
The only reason that I am interested on light novels is because that is what people talk about in manga forums.
Also light novels are released by manga publishers and are usually related to anime or manga, which brings them to my attention more than any other translated novels.

I have already read "Beatless" (of course in Japanese) and in my impression, it was a very good hybrid of light novel and hard S-F. There are light novel-like cute and beautiful characters and romantic comedy-like situation, but story itself is nowhere light. It is well thought S-F. This book was my personal best SF of 2012.
In my opinion, Satoshi Hase as an SF writer has not been paid much attention by very unlucky reason. His recent two books are both masterpiece. However, he couldn't win any annual SF award because Project Itoh also had published his book both years.
Anyway, I believe that you will enjoy Beatless as a good mix of light novel and hard SF.
Yukikaze started its serial publication on "SF magazine" from 1979. Of course, there wasn't a term 'light novel' at that time. It was adapted as an anime later although, it does not contain typical anime-like characters and storytelling style.

Yes I did get into light novels but that was because I saw the anime they "grew up into". I'm the kind of guy who can be kind of picky when it comes to what was faithful to the sourcematerial, but I'm still a guy who perfers visuals over reading books. Besides while I definetly have a list of series I would like to read so I can know where there plots and storylines go, I already know that I'm not really interested in the mass majority of what make up light novels.

In the South
Good numbers of people enjoyed an interactive Roman machines exhibition which closed in the city on Sunday after three months.
"The Romans are here" featured 30 machines created by Artisans of Florence International, with Invercargill one of just four locations to show the exhibition in New Zealand.
Southland Museum and Art Gallery coordinator museum operations Tracey Wedge was not able to be specific about attendance figures for Southland, but said it had been popular with school groups and the public.
"The majority of people who visited were delighted with the exhibition.
"Weekends were our busiest time for non-school groups and we had Southland locals and people travelling from the North Island to see the exhibition."
This exhibition came to New Zealand after successful showings in Italy, the United States and Australia.
"It was certainly worthwhile bringing the Romans to Southland, she said.
"School groups have focused very much on the technological developments in the Roman Empire that are still seen in the machines we use today, which was a surprise for children and adults alike."
The exhibition premiered in Italy at the Museum of Roman Civilisation and has already been seen in Nelson and Palmerston North.
It leaves Invercargill this week for Hamilton.

GREECE: Lower first quarter net loss at Coca-Cola HBC
Greek soft drinks group, Coca-Cola Hellenic Bottling Company (HBC), posted a net loss of €38.7m for the first quarter of 2002, down from the first quarter net loss of €45.6m in 2001. The reduced net loss was widely attributed to lower-than- expected interest expenses and negative minority interests.

Swimming/Diving Scholarships
You don't have to be the next Michael Phelps to land a swimming scholarship, nor do you have to dive a perfect 10 - but in order to receive a generous scholarship, especially in top program universities and colleges, you definitely must have an impressive track record and statistics. In high-visibility NCAA conferences like the Big Ten, fast times and scores are crucial. College coaches start recruiting prospective team members while they are still in their junior or senior year of high school. Therefore, getting a scholarship is largely dependent on personal performance in the water - but progress and potential are just as crucial. Coaches scout for not only the most talented athletes but also the ones who show the most promise and potential for growth at the collegiate level.
In addition to fast times and solid dive scores, coaches are interested in swimmers who are very diverse and versatile in their strokes. Often, collegiate swimmers change up their stroke or yardage in college, depending on the team's demographic and need. If a coach needs to strengthen a certain aspect of the team - say, the distance group - they may move their swimmers into different events. Coaches of course still value the strength and performance of a swimmer who excels in their primary stroke. Likewise, divers who try and execute higher-difficulty dives are valued. They key to success and increasing scholarship opportunities is consistency and improvement. Swimmers who are routinely dropping their times and improving their scores are more valuable that those who can only perform well once or twice throughout the season.
Swimming/diving scholarships are not only reserved for Division I or Big Ten athletes, so don't rule out smaller programs when applying for scholarships. You could be a big fish in a little pond, or a little fish in a big pond. Typically, the better the swim team, the harder it is to get a spot on the team, and the less funding you'll receive if you are not one of the top-performing athletes. Coaches are looking to attract the best team possible rather than spending a good portion of their funding on one athlete. Coaches in top-tier programs will grant the largest scholarship dollars to the best swimmer/divers, but athletes whose performance improves throughout their collegiate career may be eligible to receive more scholarship money. Scholarships can be full-rides or partial scholarships and even if you are not the strongest swimmer on the team but still wish to compete, you can tryout and serve as a walk-on. Based on your season performance, you may be eligible to receive more scholarship money.
Scholarships will be regulated by associations such as the NCAA or NAIA, depending on your school, so be sure to check the recruiting rules that govern your school of interest, or talk to the university's or college's head coach. Remember that athletic performance alone will not guarantee scholarship nor will it be the only criteria necessary to receive a scholarship. Schools and coaches look for strong GPA and academic records when recruiting - it shows them that their prospective athletes will be able to manage the academic rigor of the school in addition to competing. In fact, certain programs require a minimum GPA while being on the team, in order to continue participation - you may lose your scholarship if you fail to uphold that standard.
For additional information about swimming/diving scholarships and awards based on different criteria, try conducting a free college scholarship search at Scholarships.com.

Officials investigate the scene of a solo vehicle that went over the side of the 15 freeway Sunday, January 20, 2013, in Devore. According to the CHP, the driver was heading northbound on the 15 freeway, just south of the 215 interchange, when he reportedly fell asleep at the wheel and went off the east side embankment of the freeway before landing onto the train tracks below. The driver then climbed up to the freeway to flag down help. The passenger was extricated from the vehicle by emergency personnel. Both the driver and passenger sustained major injuries.
