A 3D Sonic The Hedgehog That Could Make Every Fan Happy
Take the 2D classic, keep the flat sprites for heroes and enemies and make the stage itself 3D. Toss in a few flashy camera tricks, and you've got a 3D Sonic concept anyone could love.

Yesterday the upcoming film Jurassic Park IV officially became Jurassic World, coming to theaters on June 15, 2015. Despite sharing the same name and featuring dinosaurs, this trailer has nothing to do with that film.
Last year Jordan Weisman's Harebrained Schemes raised $1,895,772 via Kickstarter to create the ultimate game based on the magic-meets-technology pen-and-paper role-playing game, Shadowrun. Today we get our first look at Shadowrun Returns gameplay, and so far it's everything I wanted it to be.
Back in April a bunch of gamers and role-players got together to give Jordan Weisman and Harebrained Schemes more that $1.8 million to create the definitive Shadowrun game. The development team has been hunkered down in development since the Kickstarter ended, and now we get our first look at what your money has…
Concept for a Coca-Cola can celebrating video games, inspired by the art of the French street artist Space Invader. Not an actual can of the soft-drink giant, but a concept by the designer Erin McGuire. Concepts for Coke Zero and Diet Coke are at the link.
In today's gloomy and doomy Speak-Up on Kotaku, commenter MtlAngelus wonders how Nintendo's next console can possibly stay competitive in today's gaming market.
The future of airborne gaming may include a full-sized monitor, surround sound and plenty of legroom, if you've got the cash to drop on a plush, "Not For Wimps" airline seat.
How can the Wii Balance Board make life better for the pilots of international passenger aircraft? Graduate student Nicoline van der Vaart suggests they sit on it and spin.
We knew BioShock's original story was quite a departure from the finished game - a "deprogrammer" infiltrates a bioengineered cult. Irrational Games still sold the title on that concept, and has now posted seven scans from the original 20-page pitch.
This new batch of screenshots, concept art, and enemy renders for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow are lovely and all, but I can't help but think the game could use a tie-in with a revered work of religious fiction.
Irrational Games had this idea for - hang with me here - a zombie shooter. Only thing was, it was back in 2005, and the studio's creative director said its pitches were met with the sound of crickets.
Dylan Cole, an artist formerly with Ensemble Studios, has on his personal Web site some concept pieces for a canceled Halo project that may or may not have been called "Halo Universe."
OK, not literally, but enough that Soundwave's Autobot colleague was the first thing I thought of. Him, or a shower radio.
Someone forgot to tell acclaimed designer Tai Chiem that Sony bagged the Spidey typeface with the PS3 Slim. But the rest of this concept - that means This Is Not Real - is super-futuristic cool. Wait, where's the $24 kickstand?
An attorney with Nielsen has contacted Kotaku asking we remove the image of a new Lara Croft from our site, saying that the picture was leaked without their permission.
There are Apple Stores. So why not Microsoft Stores? It's a good question. Turns out there is a Microsoft store. Only...it's at Microsoft HQ, isn't open to the public and isn't even a real store.
Gaming on a laptop? It's hardly ideal. But that's going off the hardware limitations of 2008! By the distant future, who knows what gaming on a laptop will be like. Might even be like this.
From the same guys who brought you the awful "2010" Wii comes a conceptual pipe-dream a little more...sensible. This unnamed Microsoft product takes a 360, shrinks it to handheld size, adds a Zune to it, smooshes their interfaces together then throws a phone in as well. Just for good measure. Looks nice, looks slim,…

Our authors tell us that feedback from you is a big motivator. Please take a few moments to let them know what you think of their work.
Have you ever been frustrated with all the compiling process, and wished that all just magically appeared after a pair of seconds of thinking of a feature. You don't know what I am talking about...?, anyways this tutorial is for you. Learn python, you will not regret it. You'll be surprised how easy it is. Python is an interpreter, meaning that it does not produce machine language code, but actually a mid-level language that is interpreted by, well... the python interpreter. So if you create an executable out of a python script, that same executable shall include the python.exe if you want it to work on most machines.

A friend of mine suggested that I start out with python instead of perl. After watching your video, I'm impressed. I will continue. Thanks.
It was an awesome tutorial for a beginner like me...aptly demonstrated
Only problem i was facing was the volume was too low although my PC volume was kept to max...so if its a flaw in ur recording part kindly look into it...else it was really gr8...good job
Very good tutorial gasto, thanks!
Very good. Thank you.
Pretty good.
Hi this is a very nice tutorial for people to start off or people shifting from other programming laguages
please continue to post more of these videos for people around the world learning python
wonderfull video, keep up the good work!
That was very nice. Nice language, nice expressions. Yes, it is sweet as candy =) Thanks.
was good but seemed like instructor made alot of mistakes he had to go back and recorrect himself..was he drunk?
Thanks for tutorial, it was very educating. :-)
very good
very good, but i wanted to know how to access a particular item in a list, that is within another list.
Thanks for the information.
Great tutorial! Thanks!
It was nice tutorial. Thanks for posting. Actually it is always quite hard to find well organized tutorials starting from this level and going to advanced (like a video coursebook).
Great video, you make it easy to understand. keep up the good work.
Good start, and articulated well.
Great content for a python beginner.
Try to say 'er' and 'um' less if you can :-)
this tutorial helped me alot i've been wondering how to program for my game in blender
Very good tutorial for the beginner
Best Wishes
slow and steady
Thank you for the introduction.
Volume was a little low, but maybe I shouldn't be using the default PC speakers.
Otherwise, it's a great start ^_^"
Keep it up!
This is pretty good, I was able to follow along in a separate window. So, it wasn't going too fast.
It's also nice that you left in the mistakes (like the capitalization error) since they are common and are good for learning.
It could use some introductory context. Why are we using lists as our introduction to Python? Knowing that we'll end up in PyGame, it's hard to make the connection why this is our starting point.
Fine job - easy to follow
nice tutorial, very understandable
Fantastic video. Very well done!
Thank you for making this video. I think that understanding tables will be very helpful for me to learn Python.
Thank you for this video!
you could at least have mentioned linux or said that you assume windows.
i like how concise yet easy to understand the data is. voice could be alittle clearer sometimes, i.e. word not slurred. But that's a minor point. Thank you for a great video.
good simple examples to begin with :) thanks
All help greatfully accepted!
may need to record a bit higher - difficult to hear - but I was able to follow along and do what you were doing - bravo
Great video! Quite informative, appreciated all the examples displayed to illustrate functionality, very comprehensive. Like that.
Thank you for this video. I've never used Python before and hope to get it started right here...
Good for intruduction !
After seeing the other video, I'll review my comments
Sound volume is too low !
I would love to have more videos from you mate, great way of putting things in context. If you more please let me know :)
I have not used python for four years. This video helped me get my pyHead back on.
The content was very good. For myself it was a revision of material I had met before- nevertheless the revision was much appreciated.

really its useful for a programmer who wish to have a good start for python.
Hi Gasto. I've just blogged about this series:
The post is on the two Planet Python sites, they'll bring you more visitors for the next week.
very helpful. I like the repetition you give using your examples it helps me more clearly understand what you are trying to say.
Thanks, it's easy to understand!
i want to know more now !!

Excess weight gain is a major cause of increased blood pressure in most patients with essential hypertension, and also greatly increases the risk for renal disease. Obesity raises blood pressure by increasing renal tubular reabsorption, impairing pressure natriuresis, causing volume expansion due to activation of the sympathetic nervous system and renin-angiotensin system, and by physical compression of the kidneys, especially when visceral obesity is present. The mechanisms of sympathetic nervous system activation in obesity may be due, in part, to hyperleptinemia that stimulates the hypothalamic pro-opiomelanocortin pathway. With prolonged obesity, there may be a gradual loss of nephron function that worsens with time and exacerbates hypertension. Weight reduction is an essential first step in the management of obesity hypertension and renal disease. Special considerations for the obese patient, in addition to adequately controlling the blood pressure, include correction of the metabolic abnormalities and protection of the kidneys from further injury.

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Lakers fans can rest easy. Kobe Bryant's right knee was a bit sore Wednesday, but the injury isn't serious and it's possible he won't miss any playing time.
"I'm all right, a little bit better today, a better mood, anyway," Bryant said after sitting out practice due to the hyperextended right knee he suffered Tuesday night in the second quarter of the Lakers' 102-98 preseason victory over the Charlotte Bobcats in San Diego.
Wearing an ice bag on his knee, Bryant said he felt a lot better about his injury Wednesday morning.
"There was no swelling," he said. "At that point, I knew I was OK. Some injuries can go either way. You've got to get lucky. I didn't sleep much, to be honest with you. Just moving it around, seeing if it was all right. These type of injuries kind of sneak up on you."
Bryant, the reigning NBA MVP, was injured under the Lakers' basket when he banged knees with teammate Josh Powell while going for a rebound. He immediately signaled to the bench that he was hurt, and a timeout was called. Bryant then sat at the end of the bench before walking to the locker room, and didn't return for the second half.
"I saw the ring flash before my eyes," Bryant said. "I was pretty worried. That's the scariest part, sitting there for five or 10 minutes, seeing what's going to develop."
Powell said he didn't feel anything.
"I didn't see him until I turned around. I turned around, saw him jumping up and down. I thought he rolled his ankle," Powell said.
"It was all his fault," Bryant said with a smile. "We just happened to run into each other."
The 30-year-old Bryant, examined Wednesday by trainer Gary Vitti, won't see a doctor or have an MRI. He said he hopes to play Thursday night when the Lakers face the Bobcats again, this time in Anaheim.
"If I can go, I can go," Bryant said. "It's all good."
Lakers coach Phil Jackson said he wouldn't talk Bryant out of playing.
"We always like players to go out and play," the coach said. "That's what they do. It gives us a chance to go out and function on the floor."
While Jackson said he wasn't too concerned, he added: "Seeing this injury over the course of my career, it's an injury you can't minimize at all. It could have some lingering effects. We'll see how it is tomorrow. We kind of go day to day in this business."

Visual hallucinations are common in medicationtreated Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Although their etiology is unknown several factors seem to be involved in their pathogenesis. The aim of this study was to identify possible risk factors and determine clinical characteristics associated with the development of visual hallucinations in PD.
166 consecutive patients fulfilling clinical criteria for PD were studied. During a semi–structured interview, demographic characteristics and clinical variables were recorded. Motor, cognitive and psychiatric status was also assessed. Patients with and without visual hallucinations were compared using non–parametric tests, and logistic regression was applied to significant data.
During the month before evaluation 20.4% of our patients experienced visual hallucinations (11.4% benign, 9% malignant). Logistic regression analysis identified three factors independently associated with visual hallucinations: long duration of Parkinson's disease, dementia, and disease severity as measured by the UPDRS total score.
Our findings indicate that apart from well established risk factors such as cognitive impairment and disease duration, disease severity is also important for the development of visual hallucinations in PD. Furthermore, the presence of bradykinesia and instability, the absence of tremor and the severity of rigidity and bradykinesia (limb and axial) may act as cofactors.

Peet's Cofee and Tea
Ho, ho, ho-ly crap are those holiday drinks at your local coffee chain bad for you. We know, we all want to indulge in a sugary-sweet holiday drink while we're out shopping for Christmas presents, and sometimes we just need an excuse to feel the holiday spirit. But with all the gingerbread cookies, peppermint bark, pies, hams, — and don't even make us count the wine and beer — the holiday drinks we've come to love and expect every holiday season are just adding onto your daily limit of calories and sugar.
Click here for the The Holiday Coffee Drinks That Will Help — or Ruin — Your Diet Slideshow
There's no need to fret, though (as we're sure you're already panicking about meeting the in-laws or buying the wrong gift for your little ones) — you can still indulge in your peppermint, gingerbread, and cinnamon-flavored drinks this month.
Of course, there are always options to make your beloved holiday coffee drink healthier — or "skinny." Ask for no whip (save it for the pie), or low-fat or skim milk in your drink to cut back. At some shops, like The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, you can ask for no-sugar-added or sugar-free syrups to make the drink a bit healthier.
Check out the holiday drinks to avoid this season, and see which ones are healthier options. After all, this is the season of giving — and that includes giving yourself a break for a sweet drink now and then.

• In a bit of a rarity, Nate Askew has scored a touchdowns as an offensive and defensive player after his 30-yard pick-six against SHSU.

• Bertolet's backup, junior Josh Lambo, was a first-round pick (8th overall) as a goalie by FC Dallas in the MLS SuperDraft in 2008.
• In a bit of a rarity, starting OT Jake Matthews handles the deep snapper duties on field goals and extra points.

The Aggies gained 628 yards against Alabama last week, which marked the 15th straight game that the offense has surpassed the 400-yard plateau, which is easily the longest streak in school history. Only Baylor has a longer streak of 400-yard offensive game in the NCAA FBS.
• Since head coach Kevin Sumlin's arrival in College Station, the Aggies have surpassed 400 in 15-of-16 games, including 500-plus yards 10 times.
• Digging deeper into the Aggies' offensive surge, Texas A&M has posted 42 400-plus yardage outputs in 55 total games since shifting to a no-huddle, up-tempo offense in 2009. During that span, the Aggies have hit the 500-yard level 28 times. As a point of comparison, the Aggies reached 400 total yards in just 18 games in the decade of games prior to 2009 (116 games).
The Aggies used an eye-catching 16 true freshmen in the season-opener against Rice -- five on offense and 11 on defense. It was the most true freshmen ever used by Texas A&M in a season-opener, two more than the 13 that saw action in the 2009 opener against New Mexico.
• Only once since freshmen became eligible in 1972 has Texas A&M used more true freshmen in an entire season. Then-head coach Mike Sherman ended up using 18 true freshmen in 2009. Head coach Tom Wilson lettered 16 true freshmen in 1980.
• Another true freshman joined the fray in game two when quarterback Kenny Hill made his debut.
• Since 1972, the Aggies have awarded varsity letters to 10 or more true freshman in a season only a handful of times: 18 in 2009, 16 in 1980, 11 in 1973 and 10 in 1972 and 2008.

Paving the way for the Aggies' offense is one of the biggest offensive fronts in school history, which features a pair of tackles that have been projected to be NFL first-round draft picks in the future. The projected starting five, self-titled the "Maroon Goons," of senior All-American Jake Matthews (OT), juniors Cedric Ogbuehi (OT) and Jarvis Harrison (OG), sophomore Mike Matthews (C) and redshirt freshman Germain Ifedi (OG) weigh in at 1,526 pounds or 305.2 per goon.
Matthews shifted from right tackle to left tackle to replace Outland Trophy winner Luke Joeckel, while Ogbuehi moved from guard to right tackle.
Here's the Beef
LT Jake Matthews______ 6-5___ 305___ 36 (36 consecutive)
LG Jarvis Harrison 6-3_ 325 21 (17 consecutive)
C Mike Matthews______ 6-2___ 285___ 3 (3 consecutive)
RG ________________ Germain Ifedi 6-5_ 311 3 (3 consecutive)
RT Cedric Ogbuehi 6-5_ 295 22 (21 consecutive)

Full marks to the management of this wonderful place and their attention to the minutest of detail. This is not one of those larger hotels so we enjoyed a heightened level of personal attention.
Leyvi, the manager did a phenomenal job of ensuring we were doing well - as an example we would reach the hotel much later than their kitchen would be closing and she was very thoughtful in ensuring room service would be ready with hot meals and brought up to the patio as soon as we arrived!
Thanks to all the staff including Sara and also the inimitable Osiris (yes!) who showed us around the place including an unplanned climb up to the terrace where they have a wonderful orchid garden!
Keep it up guys, we will be back again!

LOL, that whole bit about going out and finding fragments reminded me so much of Inuyasha. Strange..
Anyway, I think you've gotten off to a great start. It's a pretty original plot [I've never seen another fic like it], and I just love it!

You did a great job on the first chapter. Naruto was very IC, and I could definetly see everyone reacting that way. In the preview though, Sakura seemed helpless. I know you said it was a little OOC, but the biggest piece of her personality is her strength. They made such a huge deal of it in the show especially in Gaara's battle a couple of weeks ago. Your style of writing is very good, and enjoyable, but I can't get past the fact that she just stood there crying. I don't think she would ever do that. She'd either be mad and get Naruto, or try to stop him herself. Even if she had given up on him romantically, someone with that kind of strength would never allow themselves to just stop and cry, or to use tears as a weapon. Shes just too proud. eh! I'm sorry, I guess I'm starting to seriously ramble. Gomen. ) I was just trying to think of ways you could make her more IC. I'm sorry I don't mean to be a hassle. I'm looking forward to the rest of your fic though!

Arts Beach Bummin'
I'm headed to the seaside for the weekend. Can you suggest a trashy/smart/funny (but no "chick lit") beach book or two? Doesn't need to be a recent release; I'm all about the library.
« Age of Industry | Can You Dance If You Want To? »
I'm headed to the seaside for the weekend. Can you suggest a trashy/smart/funny (but no "chick lit") beach book or two? Doesn't need to be a recent release; I'm all about the library.
If you've never read Kathleen Winsor's Forever Amber, that'd make a great beach read. Banned in 40 cities when first published - that was the original draw for me. But it's also the book that got me interested in history; Winsor's bibliography consisted of more than 600 books. It doesn't pretend to be anything more than a novel, but the history in it is all accurate, and actually far more fascinating than the ostensible "main" story.
The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger.
Wilton Barnhardt, "Show World." Well-written but still a good vacation read.
Motherless Brooklyn by Jonathan Lethem.
"Kindred" by Octavia Butler.
It's not really a "beach novel" but I have to throw in a recommendation for The Poisonwood Bible, by Barbara Kingsolver, simply because it was so so moving and wonderful. I must have cried through the last quarter of the book . . . :-) I'm such a mushball.
middlesex by jeffery eugenides
or the perks of being a wallflower, i forget the author
or freakonomics. its very interesting.
middlesex was lovely. almost poetic.
motherless brooklyn was not and quite painful.
maybe cheese monkeys by chip kidd?
Light fluffy and trashy for the beach. Not great literature, but classier than a harlequin romance.
Youth in Revolt by CD Payne. I reread this last summer - it makes me laugh hard enough to cry. Plus it's long enough to satisfy multiple trips to the beach.
My obsession with French whores has bled in to my summer reading. Zola's "Nana" is really wonderful.
I loved Freakonomics and recommend it to everyone. It altered several ways in which I look at the world. Thanks for the ideas, ya'll.
I recently enjoyed Extremely Pale Rosé by Jamie Ivey. He and his wife and drunken buddy drive around France looking for the palest rosé they can find, to win a bet. A bit Year in Provence-ish, but not bad, and not wine-geeky at all. He's a Brit, which means he is vaguely familiar with the English language.
Or the new John McPhee -- McPhee can make ANYTHING interesting, and his stuff goes down like water. Even if you've read the stuff already in the New Yorker, it's more cohesive in a book.
Or try Reflexions by Richard Olney. Olney was a pioneer cooking writer, but this book is a memoir. Lots of food -- he can remember every detail of meals he cooked forty years ago -- but lots too of gay sex, literary heroes (James Baldwin, etc.), travels in France, living in France, yadda yadda. Great fun, and kinky too. W H Auden propositions him in a cafe by asking if he can lick jam off his cock -- he had the jam in his pocket in little jars.
Fnarf, it always seems to come back to cock with you...
Even if you've read it before - High Fidelity
Michelle Tea's work. Memoirs that read like novels (I'd vote for Valencia), a graphic memoir that's essentially an intelligent and gritty picture book for adults (Rent Girl), or even an actual novel (Rose of No Man's Land).

"Singapura" Top 5 Page for this destination Singapore by robertgaz
Singapore Travel Guide: 4,785 reviews and 10,942 photos
I have many fond memories from all my visits to Singapore and it has become almost like a second home to me. I can find my way around here much better than some cities down under.
My first experience here was in 1969 as an eight year old enroute to Perth from Amsterdam. This was only as a brief stopover to change flights but even way back then I remember the airport as a hub of much activity with people coming, going and selling.
Between 1983 and 2008 I have visited Singapore some eight times either as a destination in itself or as a brief stopover when going to someplace else.
My recollections are of a city full of friendly faces, fine foods and fun filled days. My latest trip was no exception.
As with my 2005 visit, I was able to catch up with some great VT'ers and share some local experiences that you won't find on any day trip provided by tour operators.
No sooner had I been dropped off at the Queen Street Terminal, after arriving from Malaysia, and I was looking at my map to get my bearings when someone stopped to offer some assistance.
This happened three times in the space of about half an hour while trying to find directions to my hotel. In fact, one gentleman stopped to help at a red light for a pedestrian crossing.
In the time that it took for him to explain directions to me the light had gone green and then red again. While waiting for the light to turn green again, I apologised to him for having missed his opportunity to cross but he just smiled and replied "No problems!".
I do love this city :~)
Take a walk on the wild side at Singapore Zoo
Or chat up some flighty birds at Jurong Birdpark
- Pros:Clean, orderly and friendly locals.
- Cons:Sometimes you forget all those rules!
- In a nutshell:A fine, fine place to visit.

The Fish
by Elizabeth Bishop
The Fish Choices Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Line)
Quote #1
I caught a tremendous fish
and held him beside the boat (lines 1-2)
Maybe the real-life alternative to this line would be: "I caught a tremendous fish/ and dragged him into the boat to club him dead." Because the speaker hangs the fish there, we immediately sense her hesitation and a choice being made.
Quote #2
While his gills were breathing in
the terrible oxygen. (lines 21-22)
Here we see the speaker's choice is a matter of life and death. The fish can't breathe out of water and she is choosing to keep the fish hanging there, aware of what's happening and what is ultimately at stake.

McDonald's Videogame
|McDonald's Video Game
Screenshot from McDonald's videogame
|Macromedia Flash 7
|Web, Flash download
|Release date(s)
|Tycoon simulation game, Parody
The McDonald's Videogame is an online game created by the Italian group La Molleindustria.[1] It is part of the general class of "anti-advergames", in which games are a satire of specific companies and their business practices.[2]
The McDonald's Videogame is a parody of the business practices of the corporate giant McDonald's, taking the guise of a tycoon style business simulation game. The game presents the player with four views, the farmland, the slaughterhouse, the restaurant, and the corporate HQ,[2] and through each of these views, decisions can be made which will affect the fate of the player's company. In the game, the player plays the role of a McDonald's CEO, choosing whether or not to feed the player's cows genetically altered grain,[3] or plow over rainforests, or feed the player's cows to other cows. The player can also choose advertising strategies and public official corruption to counteract opponents of the player's actions.
Some choices within the game, such as the opportunity to demolish villages or bribe public officials, paint the corporation in a negative light. These aspects of the game are unflattering to McDonald's, who issued a statement saying that the game "has no association with McDonald's, and is therefore a complete misrepresentation of our people and our values."[1]
On some websites Molleindustria released a version of the game called Burger Tycoon, which is exactly the same except that it eliminates all mention of McDonald's such as the franchise logo and a bear replacing the Ronald McDonald mascot. This was done in order to avoid copyright sanctions.
The game has been translated into nine languages; English, Spanish, Italian, Finnish, Danish, Turkish, Portuguese, French and German.[4]

Welcome to Women and Children First
Our vision is an equitable world where all women and children have good health and mothers and newborn babies no longer die from conditions that are treatable or preventable.
We work in some of the world's poorest communities in Asia and Africa to stop mothers and babies from dying during pregnancy, childbirth or in the first few days and months of life. We do this through women's groups which have been recommended by the World Health Organisation.
Our work reduces a woman's chance of dying due to pregnancy or childbirth by up to 50% and reduces the chances of newborn babies dying by 33%.
