Hello! As Halloween approached this year, I wanted to create an "illusion costume" for the students at my school. I took my inspiration from several posted on YouTube, ...
First, create the head by combining the googly eyes and mask, to the foam head. Create the "shoulders and spine" by zipping together two piece of lightweight wooden ...
Next, poke a hole in the bottom of the backpack, and slide the backpack up on the "spine" as far as it can go, then zip it tight ...
Once the clown is all set, you'll want to create the box. The box must be cut on the bottom and back, so you can step into it. ...
Once the box is good to go, you'll want to make the shoes (or buy them, if you have the means!). I used a bandana and some modeling ...

The Federal Government established the Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance (FEGLI) Program on August 29, 1954. It is the largest group life insurance program in the world, covering over 4 million Federal employees and retirees, as well as many of their family members.
FEGLI provides group term life insurance. As such, it does not build up any cash value or paid-up value. The FEGLI program includes options for Basic insurance and Optional insurance. Basic insurance equal to an employee's salary rounded up to the next even thousand, plus two thousand dollars. In addition to the Basic coverage, there are three forms of Optional insurance one can elect. One must have Basic insurance in order to elect any of the options.
The cost of Basic insurance is shared between employer and employee. The employee pays 2/3 of the total cost and the employer pays 1/3. Your age does not affect the cost of Basic insurance. One pays the full cost of Optional insurance, and the cost depends on your age.

Like all pillows, body pillows will last longer if they are properly cared for. Whether you use a body pillow to cradle knee joints or as the perfect lounging companion, a body pillow can become worn out and uncomfortable over time. Luckily, it's easy to maintain a body pillow and make it last for a little bit longer if you follow these tips.
Cover it: The best way to keep your body pillow looking new is by covering it. Body pillows can absorb sweat, dust and skin particles over their lifetimes, so it's smart to keep them covered with pillowcases that are made for long body pillows. If you don't have a body-pillow case, consider wrapping yours with two regular pillowcases or covering it with a sheet or blanket.
Shake it: Make it a habit to uncover and shake your body pillow frequently, such as every time you change your sheets. By shaking your pillow, you'll remove any built-up dust or dander that may have made its way past your cover. Take this time to switch out the body pillow's cover with a fresh, clean one.
Wash it: Although your pillow's cover will protect it from the majority of elements that threaten to soil it, it may need the occasional washing. Check the tag to make sure the pillow is machine washable before proceeding, and then wash it on a low-heat setting. Some pillows can be machine dried, but check the care instructions before doing so. If it can't be dried in a dryer, leave it in an open, well-lit and ventilated area until dry. Since body pillows are large, you may need to take it to a laundromat and wash it in an oversized washing machine.
Fluff it: If your body pillow is feeling a bit lumpy or even flat, the problem can usually be solved by a bit of light fluffing. Fluff your body pillow every couple of weeks to ensure maximum comfort. You may also want to try repositioning your body pillow each time you use it to equally distribute the wear.

I won't go into every detail of our experience with this company but I'll just hit some "high" notes. Total pun because seriously, this situation couldn't have gotten any lower.
We live about 5 miles outside of a city. Due to that, for whatever reason, we have NO options for internet besides dialup. My husband just got a new job which requires him to have a very fast internet connection. So, we finally decided to bite the bullet and look at getting satellite. We found our options to be Hughes Net and Wildblue. After some research, it appeared that Hughes Net was going to be the only way to go due to the fact that Wildblue's ONE tower already had the max on customers.
So, here we go with the nightmare. We had the service installed by some good ole boys from about an hours drive away. They came, put this enormous, Star Trek looking contraption on the side of our house, ran cables to our office, hooked everything up and told us it would probably be about 48 hours before the service would be up to speed and running fast.
We waited for that to happen and it never did. We started the customer service route after about a week of dealing with slower than dialup speeds and this was the beginning of the true nightmare.
We never spoke to ANYONE who spoke English, our hold times for even talking to someone was on average, at least 45 minutes, we were promised call backs by Tier 4 reps and never received them, we were told we had 30 days to cancel the service with no penalty and it turned out to be a lie (they're trying to nail us for $390 and some change), we would be on the phone for 3 hours with someone--taking up an entire evening away from family time---only to discover that the problem still wasn't fixed...the list goes on and on.
Finally, I got so furious that I was literally screaming at this woman---who by the way, probably didn't understand half of what I was saying, what with her broken English and all---and I DEMANDED to speak to a supervisor. To which, I was told that they basically didn't exist. When I pressed, and I do mean, PRESSED, the issue, she told me he was on the phone with someone and couldn't speak to me. WHAT?!
I emphatically told her to cancel our service and that she had better not be sending me any bill whatsoever because they would never see one cent from us. She told me they WOULD be sending a bill for the aforementioned amount and that it would be my responsibility to get the contraption off the side of the house or else they would charge us even more. She told me if I really wanted to, I could try to call back and speak to the technical support people and maybe they would send someone out to remove it. I told her they better just get someone out here to get this piece of s**t off my house. I rarely curse at reps but I have HAD IT!!!
All in all, I have NEVER, EVER in my LIFE dealt with a company so unprofessional, mickey moused and ridiculous..in all my days, never.
And I have a bill for almost $400 from them. Which I won't be paying a penny of. My only question is where do I start on remedying the situation legally. ??? Because I am JUST that kind of woman...I am ready to go on this. My husband lost work time---he had to go to hotel parking lots to do his work on his laptop so he could have the speed he needed---and we spent countless hours trying to fix this with this company and got absolutely no resolution. Just a big fat bill and some alien, taser looking crap stuck to the side of our house.
Anybody ready to take some action? Please get back to me. I'm definitely ready...

Use the coupon code "S&BCOMBO" to save 10% on a Ski/Binding combo purchase.
The 186 FreeHeel Board is amazing, and the beautiful thing about this board is its versatility. Aside from being the finest carving tool on the hill, we've added early rise to the tip. As racers are finding, the early rise tip allows the carve to progress more smoothly by maintaining the speed going into the turn by eliminating the "auger" affect as you dive into the carve. As all "free-riders" know, the early rise gives the board much better float in powder AND also makes the tip easier to manage in moguls. Flat out, the 186 is the best all-mtn board model ever produced and it's shockingly fun to ride for the novice or experienced.

THE plans for a £180 million redevelopment of the Canongate, including offices, modern apartments and a five-star hotel, mark a remarkable turnaround in the fortunes of this part of the Royal Mile.
Whether or not they go ahead - they face protests from the newly-formed Canongate Community Forum - they do at least show that this once regal, then neglected area is on the up again.
Canongate's recorded history began in 1128, when King David I established an abbey dedicated to the Holy Rood on a marshy site at the foot of the long ridge leading from the volcanic plug of Edinburgh Castle. But we know that people were living on this site before the foundation of Holyrood Abbey and its burgh of Canongate.
The routes to the north and south - now Holyrood Road and Calton Road - were called strands, showing how waterlogged the land must have been. And archaeological excavations have discovered Bronze Age flint tools, which suggest that this marshy plain was once used as a hunting and fishing ground by prehistoric peoples.
Archaeology has also shown that plots laid out after the new burgh was founded were laid across a pre-existing ditch, which probably defended an early settlement clustered near to a church which existed before 1128.
The new burgh was called the canons' "gait" or "walk". Though small, it was home to many important people, including royalty, throughout the Middle Ages. The abbey complex was often host to the Crown and inevitably, the dwellings that bordered the High Street were substantial, housing clergy and important laymen connected to the royal court.
But this was also a working town and craftsmen - skinners, tanners, masons, brewers, shoemakers, bakers and cutlers - lived and worked alongside more privileged members of the burgh and the rears of many burgage plots housed middens, wells, workshops, gardens and animals.
In the reign of James IV (1488-1513), a palace grew up alongside the abbey and the Canongate became a desirable place to live. Royal government was mostly conducted in Edinburgh but it was in the Canongate that kings and queens and most of the royal court made their main residence.
The result was a transformation of the townscape, which early maps reveal. The 1544 view drawn from Calton Hill by the English agent, Richard Lee, is a fairly accurate portrayal of the Canongate and Edinburgh, as is an English military engineer's drawing of 1573, made during the siege of Edinburgh Castle, with both showing the girth or sanctuary cross close by the abbey walls.
But maps from the next century show a very different picture. According to Gordon of Rothiemay's plan of 1647, the cross still stood in its traditional position, to the south of the Watergate. But everything else had changed. Most striking of all, the palace walls no longer lay immediately to the side of the girth cross. The medieval wall surrounding the abbey had been removed and replaced with another further east. James VI had converted the east end of the Canongate into a sumptuous royal court with an urban precinct.
The Canongate continued as a favoured residence of the elite after 1603, when the Union of the Crowns deprived it of a royal court. They lived in elegant mansions, such as Moray House, Huntly House and Hatton House, later redesigned as Queensberry House.
Despite its place among the eminent of society, by the 19th century it had become the worst slum in Scotland. The building of the New Town of Edinburgh triggered a trickle at first and then an exodus of the well-to-do out of the Canongate, abandoning the old town to an underclass.
Poverty brought with it depression, filth and drunkenness. It was no coincidence that the first Magdalene home in Scotland, a refuge for prostitutes and fallen women, was founded in the Canongate in 1797.
Even when the area was taken over by a new aristocracy - industrialists such as the Younger brewing family had by 1900 turned the Canongate into a vast industrial zone, dominated by breweries, glassworks and gas works - the slums of the Canongate continued.
Indeed they were worse than any in Edinburgh - worse even than Glasgow's Gorbals. As late as 1946, 80 per cent of families in the Canongate still lived in only one or two rooms. Improvement for many came from a move to far-flung new council estates. But for those who remained, there was a sense of loss of community.
Now though, the new parliament and its accompaniment - new offices, media centres and hotels - have brought about a remarkably quick transformation of Canongate since 1999. The area is embarking on another cycle of its thousand-year existence.
Once again it has become a place of prestige, a centre of power and a meeting place for the people of Scotland.

Do you think the redevelopment of Canongate will be good for the area?

La Fleur's 2015 Compendium of Best Instant Games
La Fleur's 2015 Compendium of Best Instant Games (FY '96-FY '15) tracks instant practices in Australasia, Canada, Europe and the United States. The book includes a CD with the Excel database for all the tables published in the publication. This book covers the best instant game strategies from fiscal 1996 through fiscal 2015 for Canadian, European and U.S. lotteries. It is the most comprehensive book on instant ticket marketing practices published in the world. Among the instant marketing strategies studied are the number of instant games launched per year, the number of instant game launches by price point, the average prize payout by price point, the number of $1 and non-$1 instant games sold concurrently and the game introduction rate. On an annual basis, TLF Publications, Inc. surveys each lottery organization in Canada and the U.S. on its top three $1, non-$1 and $5 instant games. This survey provides lottery marketers with a changing snapshot of how the jurisdictions' best three instant games performed in relation to each other. The success of a game is measured by its average weekly per capita sales for the first 12 weeks of the ticket's launch. If provided, data on the ticket's sales index is also listed. In addition, lotteries are also polled on their top non-holiday $2, $3, $4, $5, $10, $20, $25/$30 and $50 ticket as measured by average weekly per capita sales for the first 12 weeks of the ticket's launch. This list specifically excludes holiday tickets since these products routinely are best sellers for most lotteries. Also, by examining the best seller by price point in each category, it is easier to see the relationship between the different price points. The section on European lottery organizations includes the top calendar gross instant game, the total calendar PC average weekly instant game and a comprehensive list of top gross instant games by price point from calendar 1995 through calendar 2015. All new is the European and North American lotteries' eInstant Game Strategy, top gross e-instant game and top gross e-instant game by price point for 2013-2015.

Mitzi Creel at Rodney's Rockets in North Augusta says that fireworks can be a fun and safe way to celebrate the Fourth of July, as long as they're used correctly.
Mitzi says that while the entire family can enjoy the fireworks show, everyone shouldn't be in charge of lighting them.
"I would say at least 16....but small kids 10...12...they shouldn't have any access to lighting them," Mitzi said.
Mitzi says smaller children should probably stick to poppers or wooden sparklers (the metal ones can heat up in their hands.)
She also recommends keeping a fire extinguisher or water around when you plan on starting your light show.
"You just always want to follow the precautions on the box...you want to have some source of water around in case something may catch on fire. You want to stay far enough away from your house or whatever area you're shooting in," Mitzi says.

Abstract—Ridges and valleys are useful geometric features for image analysis. Different characterizations have been proposed to formalize the intuitive notion of ridge/valley. In this paper, we review their principal characterizations and propose a new one. Subsequently, we evaluate these characterizations with respect to a list of desirable properties and their purpose in the context of representative image analysis tasks.

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) has issued full guidance to the NHS in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland on Radiation therapy for early Dupuytren's disease.
In Dupuytren's disease, connective tissue in the hands (called the palmar fascia) becomes thickened and shortened (contracted). This causes ridges in the palm, and stiff fingers that bend towards the palm and cannot be straightened.
The aim of treatment is to soften the contracted tissue to allow the patient to regain use of their hand. Radiation therapy for early Dupuytren's disease involves directing low energy X-rays at the affected tissue with the aim of stopping the disease becoming more widespread. Treatment can be repeated in some patients.
Coding recommendations
X65.4 Delivery of a fraction of external beam radiotherapy NEC
Y91.3 Superficial or orthovoltage treatment for radiotherapy
Z89.4 Hand NEC
In addition ICD-10 code M72.0 Palmar fascial fibromatosis [Dupuytren] is assigned.

Dow Theory Update For June 21: Primary Bear Market For Stocks Signaled Today 3 comments
People long stocks should get ultra careful
Let's give my readers the "meat" straight away, as today the Dow Theory spoke once again.
The Transports by closing below its June 5 lows have just signaled a primary bear market. Yesterday, the Industrials and the Transports violated their respective June 5 lows, and for the reasons stated in my yesterday's post, I was reluctant to declare the existence of a primary bear market. Today's action leaves no margin of doubt: The primary trend has turned bearish.
Here you have the chart that says it all:
The Industrials closed up, and the SPY closed down. The primary and secondary trend of the market is bearish.
Today's volume was much higher than yesterday's, which is bearish, although it looks kind of climatic. In the very short term, I wouldn't be surprised to see one or two up days. However, such climatic volume tend to confirm the prevailing trend for the days ahead. Accordingly, the overall pattern of volume is bearish, as you can see in the chart below:
Volume is bearish because:
- We have had 4 bearish volume days in a row.
- Yesterday was a bearish pivot low.
- Today's monster volume confirms the prevailing bearish trend (even though it tends to show a very short-lived exhaustion of the bears of one or two days).
I hope to write later today or shortly before tomorrow's open an assessment of the implications of the current primary bear market signal, and how fared those followers of the Dow Theory that went long on January 2, 2013 in pursuance of the primary bull market signal of that date (more about such an entry signal here)
Here it suffices to say that the SPY has made 8.91% since the primary bull market was announced (dividends, slippage and commissions not included) on January 2, 2013. If we bear in mind that this percentage gain has been made in less than 6 months, it is quite remarkable. More about this successful signal, later today.
And what about the current market situation as per the "Rhea/classical" Dow Theory?
According to the "classical" Dow Theory, we are not in a primary bear market because not even a secondary reaction has been signaled yet. For a secondary reaction under the classical Dow Theory to exist, it is necessary:
a) More than 3 weeks of declining prices (15 trading days). This requirement has been fulfilled.
b) More than 1/3 of the previous advance has been erased. This requirement has not been fulfilled. As I write the Industrials should still decline an additional ca. 2% and the Transports ca. 3% so that 1/3 of the previous bull market swing (from the Nov 15, 2012 lows) is erased.
So under the "classical" Dow Theory we are still far from a primary bear market signal.
While some market observers will claim that this is good because, the "classical" Dow Theory tends to signal fewer signals, and thus avoid whipsaws, I am highly skeptical as to this claim for the following reasons:
· As I will shortly show, the empirical record proves beyond any shade of doubt that Schannep's version is more effective in getting investors out of trouble (that is in spotting primary bear markets in a timely fashion) than the "classical" one.
· I am very leery as to overstaying a falling market. Even if it were proven that the classical Dow Theory outperforms by 3% Schannep's (which is not the case), I wouldn't feel comfortable with the inherent danger of overstaying, even though draw downs may be temporary, one never knows. Furthermore, even if the draw down turns out to be temporary, its consequence can be devastating psychologically and financially for the unprepared. Rule number one for any investor is to avoid unnecessary losses. Avoid losses, avoid drawdowns, and you will survive to make money when brighter times come. Be negligent cutting your losses short, and your days as an investor are eventually numbered.
Thus, while the classical Dow Theory does a much better job than moving averages or, God forbids, buy and hold, I firmly believe that Schannep's flavor is a much better way to avoid blowing up one day. Past samples, even though they span +115 years (as the Dow Theory record) might not contain the final "blow up" event (Taleb's Black Swan). Thus, humbly bearing in mind that the worse case is not contained in my sample, I will always aprioristically and rationally choose the system that errs on the side of caution and cuts losses short quickly. This is not subject to negotiation to me.
Gold and Silver
GLD and SLV closed up in what amounts to a dead cat bounce. Technically, we are very far from a primary bull market. The primary trend is bearish, as explained here and reconfirmed bearish here; the secondary trend remains bearish too.
GDX and SIL closed up in an equally dead cat bounce fashion. The primary trend is bearish, as explained here and reconfirmed bearish here; the secondary trend remains bearish too.
Eventually, one of these primary bear market re-confirmations will be proven false. In the meantime, it is better not to fight the trend.
See you later today.

I do not know none of these theories. It seems to me that the market is "correcting". There was a hyperbolic and sustained rise about 3 to 4 weeks ago. The bond market seems to be broken. Ben was clearly uncomfortable with rising stocks; also he is very worried that people in congress are complacent. He is simply "tired" of printing money. Imagine him printing for another three or four years, he will look like a fool if the economy does not recover. Psychologically, I believe that fear has been created in people's mind.

I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat or a prostitute. – Rebecca West
A few months ago, a friend just got divorced from her husband of almost 15 years. They have been high school sweet hearts and got married right after Form 5. She lived together with the husband's family as they were still young and did not have the means to finance themselves.
Driven by love, she tried her best to keep the relationship alive. She was hardworking to make ends meet as the husband was still pursuing his studies. Eventually, they moved out from the family house when she managed to get a place on her own.
Instead of feeling thankful, he had such a wonderful wife, he took her for granted. He would gamble away all her money, sweet talk her to giving him more money for his follies. Eventually, she ran into heavy debts due to her husband's gambling behavior. When she's already at wits ends, holding so many jobs to pay off his debts, the idiot left her and disappeared with her belongings and emptied out their shared account. He was gone for five years.
Since she still loves him, she waited for his return. She was always sad and depressed. She has the kindest soul, and would never hesitate to help her friends if they are in need. But, she would refused if friends trying to lend her a hand. Over the years, she began to realize how foolish she was to have given up her youth and time for a man who never appreciated her. She eventually filed for divorce.
I read an interesting article from Chinese Chic which stated:
"Furthermore, a study I read about last month showed that men have less ability to feel remorse and regret for what they do (confirming my long held belief from life experience that men have less compassion/empathy GENERALLY (not saying every single male species or even a majority but just comparatively as against women). The study in the paper showed that men tend to feel guilt only towards themselves (selfish!) as opposed to women whom tended to feel guilt and care about how their actions hurt other ppl's feelings."
Having read that, I agreed that not all men are like that. I guess it takes time to see what a person truly becomes when the going gets tough. In any relationship, apart from love, one should also have trust and respect for each other. Otherwise, it would be too exhausting.
Here's toasting to women who had been through against all odds and emerged triumphant in the end.
My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment. – Oprah Winfrey

I called the company and they answer every question that I asked. I thought it was legit. I was experiencing financial hardship and I fell for it. I spoke with a "Sean Harris" . I completed an application via fax.
In order to recieve the loan, I had to make a collateral security payment of $939.40. I didnt have the money so I borrowed it from a friend with anticipation of receiving a loan from this compnay.
"Sean Harris" faxed me several documents about the company, the loan, and the repayment process. I sent the collateral payment via money gram to a "Beth Mulhurn". I gave "Sean Harris" my bank account infomation to deposit the money, but I never recieved it. I was scheduled to receive the money July 29, 2009.
Once they asked for more money, I realized I was scammed. I requested my money back and a "Paul Hamilton" assured me that I would get a full refund, but of course that never happened. I was scammed by Bay Point Lending Group and I hope my story helps other. Its now October 2012 and I still want my money back and I hope these indiviuals: Sean Harris, Paul Hamilton, Beth Mulhurn, and Charles Feldmen are stopped and dealt with.

Octograndma to Nadya Suleman: WTF?!
Octomom Nadya Suleman has been confronted by social services, cops, lawyers the media and countless critics for her antics of the past several months.
While some instant celebrities like Carrie Prejean are polarizing figures, there's simply no debate when it comes to Octomom: she's America's Most Hated.

Or perhaps a better term might be "stand apart," as Majin's gameplay graphics aren't exactly screensaver worthy, by and large. The game tries hard -- but never quite manages -- to create the kind of atmospheric aesthetic that Shadow of the Colossus did so well. The primary reason for this is also the game's biggest selling point: the titular Majin, a gentle-but-not-too-bright giant with a face like a muppet and powers like a demi-god. The innocent sweetness that he brings to the game's tone prevents it from delving into the darker sensibilities of other titles in the same genre, but also provides a childlike sense of optimism that some similar games lack.
And speaking of similar titles, Majin has much in common with just about every other 3D action-adventure title you've ever played -- with perhaps a greater emphasis on puzzle-solving and backtracking than most. You control an unnamed thief who frees the Majin from captivity and tries to use him to save the world from some ineffable, creeping darkness that's corrupting the people and the land. The story is revealed through a series of recovered-memory style cut-scenes, and isn't half bad; featuring some twists and a few dramatic moments that are sure to grab your interest.
But the overall effectiveness of the storyline is badly damaged by the "we-hired-our-nephews" voice acting. Not only is the acting bad, but the voice samples sound like they were recorded on an iPhone in a public bathroom. Why some Japanese game companies don't allow Americans to choose the inevitably superior Japanese acting with subtitles is inexplicable to me. I guess the sound engineers figure: "I had to suffer through interpolating this crap into the game, and now you're going to suffer with it, too."
Back to the thief and the Majin, though -- you get an interesting dichotomy in gameplay due to their respective abilities. The Majin is big and strong and (because he's controlled by the A.I.) pretty stupid. The thief is quick, smart, and stealthy. Gameplay emphasizes combining the duo's skills, both in combat and in puzzle-solving; you directly control the thief while ordering the Majin to perform various actions. In an iterative process typical to games like these, the Majin starts off de-powered and, as the game goes on, slowly regains his former badassery. This rediscovery process allows for plenty of backtracking, as you reach previously inaccesible areas using your newly acquired powers, which in turn leads to the discovery of even more powers, and so on.

You guys sold me...Posted: Feb 03, 2011 12:00AM PST by Aldi79
I'm getting this game! Everytime I saw this games cover I thought it was a kids game so never thought twice of checking the back. I like these kind of sleeper titles, so its definitely a must buy on my list. Next month I guess...
its a good gamePosted: Dec 02, 2010 12:00AM PST by Vivalasanchez
I liked the demo, and I wish that people would stop comparing every game thats action adventure to zelda jeez
This review and the $39.99 price tag sold me a copy.Posted: Nov 24, 2010 12:00AM PST by alrighthearthis
Went ahead and ordered this tonight due to the positive review and the fact that I'm a very big supporter of smaller games that come out at more reasonable prices. I was going to buy it to play tonight but apparently Game Stop and Target were too busy getting ready for Black Friday. Their loss of my money to Amazon yet again. I generally just order online but I was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt.
My Hither and Thither ThoughtsPosted: Nov 24, 2010 12:00AM PST by BalanceandtheGypsy
Well, I saw screens and a short preview for this in Edge magazine and was excited by the look of the thief and the big friendly guy. The art seemed to me a tad mystical and I was hopping for a compelling story by the Ico and Colossus guys to follow. After reading this review however I am slightly less excited. Going down one particular path doesn't bother me so much but I am honestly not sure if I can handle a game in this day and age with horrid voice acting. I'm sorry it just brings me right out of the game and makes me miss the days of Playstation numero uno and consoles before that weren't as brain cell killing because you had to read a couple hundred paragraphs. … sorry that was so picky. Must have needed to get it out. I'm normally not like that I swear. Anyway, I think the game would have done wonders as a co op. not reading anything in this review about it I'm guessing it's not though I was hoping it t'was. The rumor of it launching at 40$ is an inticing one however and to be honest I feel like the last action adventure game I played was Prince of Persia. I guess I don't know what to think until I try her out.
Where the hell have I been?Posted: Nov 23, 2010 12:00AM PST by UISjackolope
I've never heard of this game. But it looks pretty interesting and this (mostly) positive review has convinced me to go look for it.
I read somewhere that this game is going to be $40 at launchPosted: Nov 23, 2010 12:00AM PST by UnsungHero007
If this is the case I might pick this up.
I agree with JustinPosted: Nov 29, 2010 12:00AM PST by Darkstrider311
It makes the blunt of it dropping $10-$20 less painful if it were a game you paid $50-$60 for and it drop down a few months later.That price mark ought to be reserved for special and limited edition of games though.
I was just playing the demo.Posted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by ghostman2k78
I'll definately pick this up when the price drops. I could totally tell that the game would have been so much more enticing if it were in Japanese with english subtitles.
Even in the demo you're basically walking down a straight hallway- I appreciate them being honest, and giving me that hint of how the game may play out, so that's another reason why I'll give up some $$ and buy their game. They're not pulling a FF13 and showing a bunch of footage of some expansive territory that can be explored and it turns out to only be a short section of the game.
I love Game Republic's last PS3 exclusive, so I'll probably get this tooPosted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by darkpen
Folklore was so underrated, and as a fan of that game, I'm most definitely going to check this one out too.
Folklore is among my favourite games of this generationPosted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by Ravinoth
so it looks like I'll probably buy this at some point. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. The review hit all of the right notes as well, referring to Okami, Legend of Zelda, and Prince of Persia.
How similar is ii toPosted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by Soylentx
Enslaved? I've been wondering if they are alike in any way, because the seem very similar.
totally differentPosted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by transamsteve1
they are both completely different other than the fact that you have an AI controlled character. The similarity between the two is that they are both part of a genre where the developers pump out a pretty good (not mindblowingly kickass) games that get overflooded by mainstream games (CoD, NFS, Fable, Assassins Creed, Halo" Reach, etc) that are released around the same time. Then because they are made by little known developers with little marketing dollars pushed by their publishers, they fail. Sad and repeated story.
I'd be interested to know...Posted: Nov 23, 2010 12:00AM PST by Metroidvaniac
Did Enslaved fail? There seems to be a fair bit of love for it; not as much as some titles this year, of course, but a lot of people seemed to like it well enough. But that's not enough to do well in the modern console market. I'd like to know just how much it sold, though; I'd like to think that at least some people put more stock in story than in ripping off limbs.
As for the similarities between Majin and Enslaved, I've only played the demo of the former, but as Steve said, they seem completely different. Enslaved has more of an emphasis on action, with interstitial platforming similar to that of 2008's Prince of Persia, only with even less risk of actually falling (Monkey won't attempt a jump he can't make, unlike the Prince). This, as the review states, feels closer to Zelda, the main difference being you've got a giant ogre thing following you around. Also, you can jump, but that's not too big a change, as Okami proved it doesn't change the Zelda formula all that much.
Far apart mate!Posted: Feb 03, 2011 12:00AM PST by Aldi79
Ginx TV just did a peice on comparing Enslaved & Majin, and I they said Enslaved is more action orrientated while Majin is more puzzle. Enslved did win the comparison in the end with more points awarded because it was more action based.
Played the demoPosted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by cerrente1975
And I had alot of fun with the game. the controls were responsive the gameplay was interesting. The graphics were not the best in the world but far from the worst. I actually heard about this title before it came out and was looking forward to the release. The fact that the developers got wise and decided to drop the price point before release makes it even better. With a fairly limited platforming adventure title selection currently, this seems to fit in the void pretty nicely. Seriously people if there is any doubt lose it because if you are even slightly interested at 40 bucks new you really can't go wrong.
Well.Posted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by Metroidvaniac
I'm sorry you didn't like it more, but I'm glad to know it's at least OK. As a fan of Zelda, Shadow of the Colossus, and the 2008 Prince of Persia, I was interested to hear about a game that combined all three. When I played the demo, I didn't like the Incredible Hulk by way of Barney the Dinosaur voice of the Majin, but the gameplay and atmosphere of the rest of the game were definitely intriguing. I pre-ordered this when I saw the price had dropped to $40 at Amazon, so it's nice to know that, even if it's not as great as its forbearers, it's still a decent game. I always find this type of game much more entertaining than what the rest of the world considers to be AAA titles anyway.
Wow.....Posted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by Gold_Ultima
I've never even heared of this game. How the heck can it already have a review if I've never heared of it? Must have a bad PR team on it.
SamesiesPosted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by leetdrew
I hadn't heard of this game until now, either. I figured it must be a downloadable title or something, but 40 bucks? No, thanks. The passage in the review about the game's linearity totally turned me off. I'd rather spend an extra 20 bucks and pick up a real game. Honestly, these days it's less about cost for me and more about time. If I'm going to spend my time in a game world, I want it to be the best game world possible. Screw budget titles.
ehhh...Posted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by fx2effects
Dude is a "real" game, its not downloadable or anything, the studio is fairly small (they did Folklore for PS3) and obviously they are not working with ubisoft with can get them a lot of promo. The game is gonna stand for itself in that sense yeah, but you never know, maybe become a cult classic
I wouldn't say they have a bad PR teamPosted: Nov 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by TenaciousCK
They just don't have much of a PR budget. An understandable difference.

Andrew Karnavas has been creating and performing music since 2009, and currently manages three original music projects through his independent record label, YAWP Records. He has toured nationwide with all three projects, playing at esteemed venues including the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C., PBS Kids House at SXSW, the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo Disney Stage, and the House of Blues. Andrew has released six albums: two "AndyRoo and the AndyRooniverse" family music albums; three "Runaway Sun" Delta rock albums; and his solo LP, Film Noir, a work of introspective bluesy acoustic music with image-driven storytelling inspired by his childhood trips to the movies with his Dad. Andrew calls this Film Noir collaboration with FrenetiCore Dance "a lifelong dream come true." In addition to composing new music and singing live for the performance, Andrew edited the video footage shot by seasoned DP Raul Casares for the stage show. Whether live or recorded, Andrew entertains audiences of all ages.
"Andrew Karnavas' music is full of mystery and mood, so Film Noir seems a fitting title for his new collection of originals. The songs are alternately smoky and smooth, countryish and classical, hushed and heartfelt." – Joey Guerra, Houston Chronicle
"When Karnavas is playing alone on the stage, just him and his guitar, he sounds like what a big empty field looks like before it rains. Film Noir develops theatrically, playing like a movie soundtrack, hinting at love lost and regret in a desolate-tinged Americana style – think Wilco but more sincere." – Shea Serrano, Houston Modern Luxury Magazine

"The Longest Castle in Europe" Burghausen by Anjutka
Burghausen Travel Guide: 16 reviews and 32 photos
Many famous castles consist of not much more than a tower and a wall around it, all together about maybe 30 meters in diameter but this here is one km and 43 meters long above a much smaller old city. The modern Burghausen of course is much bigger than that and mostly north of it and well known for its chemical industries.

An interesting small page about one more wonderful town in Bavaria! Thanks Anna for sharing! Altstadt seems to be very picturesque.
Burghausen ist wirklich sehr sch�n, und es l�sst sich so einfach verbinden mit einem meeting in F*, einem Ort dessen Namen ich nie aussprechen w�rde in Gegenwart einer Dame ;~)
One of the nice pearls on the route from K. to F.
Nice start on your new page. A colleague of mine used to live in Burghausen, and loved it.

Although this site has many inbound links (about 30) and gets top 10 ranking for many keywords from google.
Keep trying to build quality rich content pages. I'm sure it will help, but ofcourse it couldn't be done by 1 night though.
We also have lot of seo related information & most of it is optimized, because of which we shud be getting lot of users, but its not happening.

Well one thing i should say is that you will need links from better PR pages, ans every time google spider comes to your page from a Higher PR page, you get a vote, but it depends on the PR of page and the outward links that page is having.
this is what i know as of now, if i get to know more, i will pass on to you.
and if your pages are crawled quite often, you will need to keep changing content for a better ranking.
What I would say though as I had chance to see your link was that page and code bloat could have a huge part. Even without latency issues 100+k for a few words and graphics on a page is way above board.
Also considering that the home page only has a PR2 it will be difficult to get it any PR, hunt for links and your PR may increase.
the website has been there for more than 8 months, gets lot of visitors from google, but still the pages are not refreshed in the index.
my main website is crawled everyday by google but not the pages that main page directs it to
i need an early reply, please help me, its like banging my head against wall as i develop more content which will not be indexed.
will anyone tell me why my dynamic pages are not ranked and crawled by google recently
It all depends on how they are implemented - cgi, php, ssi, have you used a mod-rewrite to get rid of query strings, how about session ids? Need some more info really.
If you are on an Apache server then you may need to use mod_rewrite, if you are on a windows server the an Isapi filter could do the job of removing the strings and making them more search engine friendly.
Best to play it safe with url rewriting of some sort, also makes it more user friendly :)
mod_rewrite is for Apache, if you use Windows server then an Isapi filter would need to be installed and then configured to do the rewriting... I have heard they can be very exspensive.

Your advice is good, but its a kind of question
as i think you guys are senior webmasters and also more into SEO, why don't you guys shower some concepts of making better rankings on us.
Well you may laucgh, but i am only into developing better pages for my web users and not according to the way google want them.
Also as many people said that i would need to add up simple htm pages, i have done that too, but it hasn't given me better ranking
and craig, your creative confusion is good idea and a great name
lol being creative and confused
Also as many people said that i would need to add up simple htm pages
These pages can "apparantly" be created automatically using a mod rewrite, you may want to search the Apache Web Server forum for more info.
As for "creative confusion" I am at a loss, I do not see any reference to that phrase in the thread or anyhting much more than a question from sem4u?
This is exactly what everyone is doing around here all the time. You might be in the wrong spot to learn specifics so look around in all forums at WebMasterWorld, use the site search with your keywords in question and study.
Basically what you need is 2 hours a day of studying and digesting, this is what brought me here and this is what I have been doing for more than a year now, pretty much everything I know today I have learned from this place.
Read, read, read, there is nothing that hasn't been discussed around here. And because of that there are questions and topics you need to develop for yourself. Nobody is going to repeat themselves hundred times because the same type question pops up with every new user (and I think there are tons of new guys coming in every day).
So, do some homework first and participate, it is the most rewarding spot on the web for anyone who wants to grow.
Your very specific question of how to obtain better ranking finds hundreds of answers around here, you need to find them and sort out the right stuff suitable for your environment, tasks, strategy and topics.
Have fun and play.

Excellent Advice. Couldn't agree more. Most of the topics discussed over here have been dealt in numerous old threads. Also explore the library in each forum as they have some excellent discussions. Hope that helps. :)
