"When I first began working with you on the purchase of my first home, and would tell my friends and co-workers what a great guy you were, the response was always the same, "Just wait until the sale goes through, you will never see him again." So I guess my opinion of a REALTOR® was not too high, however, I hope you know how delighted I was that you proved me right and them wrong.

"Thank you for taking care of all our needs and calling us as often as possible to let us know you were hard at working finding a buyer for our home. We felt you had our best interest at heart and always inspiring confidence."
– Jim & Debra R.
"Steve was as nice as he was professional."
– Christopher & Victoria M.
"Steve made us feel comfortable and knowledgeable along every step of the buying process. As it was our first home, we had so many questions, concerns, frustrations, and excitement. Steve helped guide us to find the perfect house, negotiate a very nice deal, and made the entire move in process as seamless as possible."

Radical Islamist rebels in the Syrian city of Raqqa are forcing Christians to pay for protection.
Christians must pay over $600 twice a year for the protection, convert to Islam, or "face the sword," the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria said in a statement posted online.
The statement referred to the "dhimmi pact," an ancient law allowing Christians and Jews to live in Islamic kingdoms if they paid a tax. Christians under protection will be allowed to worship privately, keep their own cemeteries and have their own clergy.
However, Christians must keep their religious items out of public sight. They are also not allowed to evangelize, bear arms, or pray where Muslims might hear them.
The ISIS terrorist group grew out of al Qaeda in Iraq and has become the most feared militia in Syria. Raqqa has been under rebel control since May 2013.

Big Requirements Up Front
If you don't ask for it you won't get it.
Write down everything you could possibly ever need into a book, and make the coders sign it. Then, at acceptance time, for every missing line item that you find you still need, make the coders work for free to complete it.
See ChaosReport
A customer cannot "steer" the project if they do not know - on a high level - what they want this project to become.
I found this statement interesting because I found it 180 degrees opposed to my viewpoint. I feel the customer (specifically the front line users) know exactly what the project should become. It is the
who need to know what the project should become. The question are the more effective and efficient means of communication from the users to the developers.
The problems I see with "Big Design Up Front" are that the two parties most interested in the communication (users and developers) are omitted; and the context of the user environment is lost when a large document listing precisely defined requirements is created.
I have become firmly convinced that there is no substitute for having individual developers spend a day with individual users and understanding the environment of the user's job. The developers invariably come back from the experience with drastically changed views of what they should be doing. Developers have to intuitively make hundreds of unconscious decisions while creating software; direct user experience provides a context for those decisions.
Again, the point is how best to get information and knowledge communicated from users to developers.
I feel the customer (specifically the front line users) know exactly what the project should become.
So when the military wants to develop a new airplane, they make the requirements, but past that do you think they are the best people to know exactly what the project should become?
Who would be better than the pilots in describing what the cockpit should look like? Who would be better than the maintenance crew to define common parts and repair and replacement needs? I would tend to assume that the military probably does understand military needs.
Who would be better to come up with discontinuous breakthrough rather than the status quo?
, new knowledge can only come from outside a system; a discontinuous breakthrough would come from someone other that those involved with the current version. Discontinuous breakthroughs, however, are nearly impossible to predict. If one has a planned schedule and budget, it would be extremely risky to depend upon a set of discontinuous breakthroughs. Be content with the status quo and continuous improvement of the status quo.
I tend to agree with this, based on several project where the requirements were coming from the customer management, and the rank and file had totally different needs.
unless the customer agrees to have the end users available for questions, you aren't going to get incremental requirements. --
Yes, unfortunately in the real world, "the best source" is not usually the same as "the best available source." There are usually ways to get user contacts, however, particularly if the developers are will to go out to meet the users rather than having the users come in to meet the developers. Early in the requirements process, one can have a "Workflow Analysis" or a "Site Survey." Later, one can have a "User Conference," "User Acceptance Test," or a "Pilot Site." Many users are quite willing to describe what they do if someone shows an interest and will answer questions over the telephone or via e-mail once one has made a contact. These users can provide a great deal of guidance in interpreting a Big Requirements Up Front document and allow at least an incremental development to occur. --
I feel the customer (specifically the front line users) know exactly what the project should become.
I disagree with this completely. Fifty percent of the people in this world are dumber than average. As far as I can tell, all of our customers are in this group. For every project I have ever worked on in my career, my organization's services were needed for not one but two reasons:
The customer needed our help to figure out what they wanted.
The customer was incapable of creating the product.
In this scenario, I can not envision an alternative to this process.
I used various public domain and Internet sources to create a set of white papers for a client wishing to improve their engineering process. This set of papers includes an engineering glossary, software coding guidelines, software design guidelines, and others. The single most important paper in the whole mess is the one describing "Where Software Comes From."
The best way to eliminate shifting goal posts is to identify the goals in the original requirements. This can be done in a formal manner by using tools such as the QFD model (zero-sum game) and Fagan inspection or something similar. This is
an excuse for setting all the requirements in stone such that they can never change. Instead, requirements need to be organized into those which must remain unchanged, those that can be altered, and how much leeway there is in changing them.
The papers are up on my biz site for one and all to see, copy, edit, distribute, and abuse as y'all see fit.
The above comes across as
to me. I try to approach it from the point of view that everybody knows *something* more thoroughly than others, but no one person knows everything. Users know what they need better than an outside analyst does. However, the outside analyst may have more experience selecting, presenting, and weighing the various options.
For example, as a home owner, I may know that my (house) windows are cracking and need repair or replacement. However, I don't really know all the replacement options and their trade-offs. A windows expert can provide such, but the home owner still needs to participate in the process.
It's a matter of working together to match what needs to be done with what can be done within practical constraints.
It's a give-and-take process
. A domain-poor analyst is asking for trouble if they ignore users. I've built/designed what I thought were nice simple abstractions that simplified everything only to find out there were a lot of gotcha's that snuck up on us, requiring a fundamental rethink. Users having difficulty describing what they want is not the same as users being useless to the process. --top
[While there is clearly some user bashing going on (although I'm not sure about the wisdom of declaring that only dumb people hire me.), there is truth in the statement that users often do not know what they want. I've worked in a domain where most of the clients were quite intelligent, they simply were ignorant about technology. These clients would typically come up with some idea, often with negative impacts, and we would have to engage in a (usually) long and drawn out process of working out what they really wanted. Often this had little to do with the original idea they started with. This does not mean that the customer should be left out of the process (except when it comes time to mail the checks), but too often, what they say they want, and what they really want do not coincide.]
Usually there is a manager who decides what features to include and which are outside the scope. If rank-and-file users wonder outside of stated scope, or into suspicious territory, then perhaps consider referring it to the central manager. (Off-scope features may suggest good future business ideas if you are an outside consultant.) I generally like to collect all suggestions and/or suggested features, and then have the top-level customer rank them. This will at least help focus the project. Depending on the formality of the situation, you may even want them to sign off on the ranking. If the ranking keeps mutating often, then you have documentation to that fact. Some changes are inevitable. Excess changing is a problem. --top
[We developed semi-custom software for very small companies (6-8 people was common). The people who came up with the original ideas often were the only management/ownership they had. They rarely had more than one active request at any given time, so there never was an issue of ranking. Often we had to make the suggestions because the ones the clients supplied didn't actually meet their needs.]
If they pay you externally, then don't sweat it if they cannot make up their mind. Do your best, and if they change their mind or later clarify what they didn't earlier, then its simply more money in your pocket. Avoid fixed-price contracts if the customer is wishy-washy. If its an internal project and they are wishy-washy, then crank out something quick-and-dirty in MS-Access rather than get bogged down trying to be formal and spending forever chasing your tail.
[Wishy-washy? The issue wasn't the customers deciding the want A, and the next day deciding they want B.]
Living organisms with nervous systems have a wonderful characteristic of avoiding pain. Pain is a feedback mechanism that is amazingly fast -- although pain sucks, it has a strong tendency to keep us alive. Perhaps more important is the interaction between pain and memory. People touch flame, in general, only once in their lifetimes. They quickly learn that flame hurts. Likewise, people tend to become acutely aware of "mass" when they get mowed over by something heavy (either by dropping a box of stuff on their foot, or getting pummeled by their family dog, or...). Last but not least, people also acutely learn how electricity feels when a high-voltage static discharge occurs, or if they accidentally touch a "hot chassis" of some device, which tends to permanently engrain electrical safety into their heads.
Through this instantaneous feedback mechanism, all of which involves
the unschooled become schooled in the ways of the world. One such
is economic pain, and the realization that, "Hey, you know, this is really costing me money." Thus, the value of the
is to give
to the customer, when the customer does something stupid. The rapid feedback of critical information, such as estimates of time to completion, and relative priorities, helps hone the client's concept of what he
wants. It forces the client to become more aware of what is involved with the software's construction, particularly since the client is paying the coders each iteration.
Hence, claiming that "customers are dumb" applies only to those development processes which
do not
involve the customer in the development cycle. As soon as the customer starts to see what is involved in the development of his requested features, he
quickly becomes much more fiscally (and thus, feature) conservative.
Never under-estimate the power of pain. --Samuel A. Falvo II
[I certainly agree that leaving the customer out completely is so rarely a good idea we can just say "don't do it." But if we had taken a "you asked for X, it costs Y, will you pay?" approach we would have "pained" both them and ourselves out of existence. I must stress that the customers were not dumb, but ignorant. If I had attempted to do their job, I would have floundered around just as badly as they did attempting to suggest improvements to the technology we provided.]
You seem to be suggesting that the
hard decisions be delayed
as long as possible for "harmony". I don't know the political situation you faced, but from a "technical success" standpoint, making the hard choices up front is the better bet in my experience. The mess in Iraq is partly due to local governments postponing difficult decisions because they can ride the back of the USA for now (both as a police force and as a scapegoat). --top
[No. That would have lead to us doing the project they originally suggested and let them find out for themselves what the problems with it were. It's much harder to tell them, "This idea doesn't work because of such and such.", extract why they felt they wanted that in the first place, and find something that actually works then to just say "yes, sir" and let them deal with the consequences.]
People want a sense of control over their destiny even if its not always the best technical choice. One trick is to let them have their way with relatively harmless or low-impact issues to satisfy that sense. That may buy you enough influence wiggle-room to affect the bigger issues. If you feel you need control over most or all aspects in order for the project to be successful, rather than pushing for that at all costs, perhaps its time to renegotiate expectations. If "X will only work under conditions A, B, and C", but only A and B are possible/likely, then its time to rethink the price, time-line, etc. Always build in "room for crap" in estimates.
I'd like to inject a term here that XPers and other so-called "agile" types roundly loath: architecture.
First of all, let's define that this is, shall we?
Architecture is the base, irreducible, and immutable set of rules defining how a system works.
and you are smart enough to know them all when you start. props!
[Try not to be such a smug turd, eh? Read some more before posting.]
Architecture rules are base because they define a system at its core functionality. You can have me build you a toaster or a coffee maker, but it has to be either one or the other -- not both. You have chosen a toaster. Are you absolutely sure? You better be.
They are irreducible rules because you have defined the toaster I am making in terms of what it absolutely must do to be a successful toaster. It has to cook one or more slices of toast simultaneously, both sides simultaneously, and evenly on both sides. If any of these rules are not met then it isn't a successful toaster. So, if it can't toast one slice by itself or if it cooks unevenly then it is a craprod.
They are immutable because once you have set these rules into place you can't change any of them without changing the target into a different product. You told me to build you a toaster. I've started building a toaster. I can't make it a coffee maker now. If you want a coffee maker I need to start over from a clean white sheet of A size.
The (un)common wisdom about architecture is that these are the rules you will have to live with for the lifetime of the system, so they need to be chosen with care.
Now, note that the architecture just says that the toaster will be capable of toasting one
or more
slices of bread. The architecture doesn't call out limits on how many slices the toaster can handle. This is the kind of detail that the client hems and haws over as development continues. Two slices or four slices? Two slices or four? Two or four? Bicker, bicker, bicker. Nit, nit, nit. Pick, pick, pick.
All the while you are sitting back, comfortable in the knowledge that any choice they make will not affect your base, irreducible, and immutable rules that you have set in stone.
Go ahead and let the client thrash out the details of the product all they want. Your architecture remains safe.
And if I do want a toaster and coffee machine combo? With this approach, a printer is not a scanner, a scanner is not a printer, and neither are fax machines or photocopiers, so you can never have the hybrids that have become so successful in the SoHo
market. -- zfx
XP works with all practices supporting each other. See
. And note that printer, scanners, and fax machines are not DRY - they fail "
". Refactor them!
Please, folks, let's not drown the basic concept in useless trivia. The idea of setting an architecture in place is so that there are ground rules for defining what the product is. In the case of a printer/fax/copier, the product is a combination of an imager and an image capture device. Note that these functions are independent and need to be defined separately, even though their functionality has been combined into a single box.
Even with a wideband product like a combo printer/fax/copier, you still need to set limits on the architecture so that the client doesn't get crazy with features. So, the combo box can print, send faxes, and copy, but it can't do XY plotting. That's because it isn't a plotter. There are no provisions in the architecture for interpreting XY plotting commands, nor math capability for drawing vectors, nor any of the jillions of other things a plotter needs to do. Why?
Because the architecture forbids it.
is the reason for establishing an architecture. You have saved yourself and your client from needless grief in trying to shoehorn a plotter into a fax machine because you defined the product as a fax/printer/yada yada yada before you ever started. By setting these limits up front you then avoid shifting goal posts later on.
Now is it clear?
In a contract relationship, you should use
for everything you've asked for will turn up to be a good leverage in contract negotiation once you need it. In a more trustworthy environment, if you have good
s, let's say you won't need to express everything.
Right, see, that's the point. If you have a clear grasp on the difference between what has to be there and what is more likely to change as discovery progresses then you don't have to have moving goal posts. You can specify the hard requirements up front and only resolve the wishy-washy requirements as they need to be solidified. Establishing an architecture isn't an anti-pattern; it is a necessary component of establishing a baseline of operation for the product.

P&G's Have You Tried This Yet + $100 giveaway
Please note, the giveaway has now ended and Blogher has randomly chosen comment #49 as the winner.
With the holiday season in full effect, I hope you enjoy my participation in P&G's "Have You Tried This Yet?" campaign, where I reviewed Bounty® Basic Paper Towels and COVERGIRL's blast flipstick. I also get to host a giveaway to give my readers a chance to win a $100 Visa gift card.
I'm pretty familiar with the Bounty® brand of paper towels, and it's my top choice when I'm buying paper towels. I find the Bounty® brand to be noticeably thicker and softer feeling compared to other brands. Plus, Bounty® cleans the mess with less because one sheet traps and locks the mess
So there's the Bounty® I'm used to which usual has bright green packaging, but have you heard of Bounty® Basic, which has a yellow label? (Sorry, I had a picture, but seemed to have lost it. I will update a picture of the Basic paper towels later.)
Recently, I was selected to review Bounty® Basic Paper Towels as part of the "Have You Tried this Yet?" program from P&G. The idea of the program is to introduce brands to consumers to help improve everyday life. You can check out more details here. In addition, BlogHer is doing a Sweepstakes for a $100 Visa gift card, which you enter by leaving a comment.
Have You Tried This Yet? offers consumers various value saving opportunities throughout the year to try some of the program's participating products like Bounty®:
- brandSAVER: Complimentary coupon booklet, distributed in local Sunday newspapers nationwide, featuring more than $80 in savings on the campaign's featured products.
- brandSAMPLER: Samples and valuable coupons mailed directly to you.
- eSAVER: Get coupons downloaded directly to your own personal shopper card.
The biggest difference about Bounty® Basic is that it's only 1-ply, whereas the regular Bounty® is 2-ply. It does not feel as soft and absorbent as the Bounty® I'm used to, but it's also priced less (about half the price). There are definitely situations in my life where I sometimes feel the thicker Bounty® towels go to waste when being used. For instance, a tiny spill, covering food being microwaved, or when they are being used as napkins.
Even though Bounty® Basic doesn't feel as soft and thick as the 2-ply Bounty® towels, the 1-ply Basic ones still feel nicer than the 1-ply towels offered at my office and most business offices, which feel almost as rough as regular paper.
While I wouldn't use these for a heavy duty clean-up, they are good for something small. You can save some money by using the cheaper priced paper towels for smaller situations and saving the super absorbent ones for bigger messes. It is also more environmentally friendly to use the 1-ply ones whenever possible rather than waste and use the 2-ply ones when they aren't needed.
In addition to the Bounty Basic paper towels, I was also given a chance to review COVERGIRL's blast flipstick. No it's not edible and not really about food, but I think lipsticks still appeal to a lot of my readers, right?
The new blast flipstick provides two lipstick shades on one stick, which makes carrying lipstick around more convenient. There are quite a few color combinations to choose from, ranging from big contrasting dark to light shades on one stick, to more similar shades on one stick. On each stick, one side is a creamy shade and the other one is a shimmery shade. You can wear them individually or blend them into one, creating different shades for different occasions.
After much contemplating with all the color combinations, I chose a stick that had two shades of pink. A lighter, creamy pink for the daytime, and a darker shimmery pink which works great for the evening. The two colors work well together too, and I added a little bit of the sparkly pink to my daytime shade to highlight my lips a little more. So far, I'm loving my new lipstick. I love carrying around one stick that I can use multiple ways and I was impressed with the different combinations offered so that I can change it around depending on my mood, clothes, or the occassion.
Now about that $100 Visa gift card, courtesy of BlogHer. To be entered for a chance to win, simply tell me:
How would Bounty® paper towels or the COVERGIRL Blast Flipstick fit into your everyday life?

I like the promotion. Hey! $100 gift card who can pass on that? But to win is tough!
I agree with you, Bounty is the best brand among the paper towels. 2 color lipsticks? I have tried this product in other brand about 15 years ago, not as good as I thought. Perhaps, Cover Girl has improved it. The idea was great, but the choices were poor when I tried it long time ago.
I already use Bounty paper towels every day. I use them to wipe up my kitchen table and my toddler's messy hands after she eats her meals. I rarely wear lipstick, but the CoverGirl flipstick sounds great!
Bounty Paper towels would help me clean up after my kids when they are done eating or working on an art project.
I also use Bounty (green label) at home, but I agree with what you said about using Bounty Basic for small spills or covering food in the microwave, good ideas!!
Bounty paper towels are convenient to use and make cleanups easy, and COVERGIRL Blast Flipstick is easy to use and would look great on.

I like Bounty!
I heard in high school (I don't know if it's accurate) that the average lipstick wearer ends up eating something like 2 pounds of lipstick in her (or his…) lifetime. So perhaps it is edible, even if it was just a high school rumor.
Bounty is definitely a good brand, one I do stock up on when its on sale.
The Bounty line of towels are always more durable and of a higher quality. I would use them around my house to clean up the small messes. Covergirl Blast Flipstick would probably look delicious on my lips. I have switched over to glosses to add the shimmer, but I would gladly switch back if the shimmery side makes me sparkle just a little. =)
Sounds wasteful but I actually use Bounty to dry my face. And every girl could always use some lipstick.
I am very frugal/cheap when it comes to grocery shopping and I always buy the cheapest ones, and they work like cheap ones. I am sure buying Bounty would be nice. I might not have to use half a roll for one spill.
we use paper towel in the kitchen every day! so useful for everything!
I have a foster dog that I'm trying to potty train. Phew, so that's how bounty paper towels would help my everyday life.
I love lipstick and the idea of two lipsticks in one tube is really appealing.
I use Bounty all the time for cleaning up kid and dog messes. The Covergirl Flipstick sounds great for adding shimmer in the evening!
The Bounty paper towels will come in handy during the holidays with all the little ones making messes!
Bounty paper towels are a good quality, I would use them every day for cleaning.
With one dog and one cat the Bounty paper towels with definitely come in handy, love to try the covergirl lipstick, [email protected]
Bounty paper towels would be a dream come true in my kitchen, I get water everywhere when I'm doing the dishes and go through so many trying to clean up after!
I use Bounty all the time for cleaning up cats and dog messes, for cleaning around the kitchen and for wiping hands.
The Covergirl lipstick would make my lips look nicer and brighter
Bounty for everything! I'm very accident prone to spilling everything and lipstick seems pretty nice, two for the price of one hehe.
It's been a while since I've fit any lipstick into my life, but this might be the season to start up again!
Love Bounty! Already use it in my daily life. No other brand out there compares!
With 7 and 4 year old boys we go through a lot of paper towels. Bounty would give me more picker upper power for my money.
the flipstick would be great for my new xmas party outfit i'm wearing this weekend!
covergirl makes me feel good!
We use 1-ply paper towels as our napkins- just fold them up and they are way better then buying napkins from the store. We buy bounty for the 2-ply so I'm excited to try out the basics as I'm sure it's better than the 1-ply we are using now!
bounty paper towels are the best! makes cleaning up the kitchen so much easier!
Bounty is a lifesaver at my house. I keep children in my home so we make a lot of messes.
I have 3 young kids who are constantly spilling around the house. These would be great to have around our home
I can totally see my using Bounty Basic in the kitchen and to clean up around the house. I'm using the "green" package Bounty right now but hadn't noticed the new "Basic". I'll be looking for it.
Hey, I'm always interested in lipstick! I love that by carrying one tube you basically get three colors (one on each end and one by combining them)! Great idea and definitely something I would like in my own handbag!

I just Tweeted about the giveaway here: https://twitter.com/katygmorris/status/277189210195251200

The Bounty paper towels would be helpful in the kitchen because I have a bad habit of wiping my hands on my shirt after I've washed my hands instead of walking the 3 steps to wipe them on a towel.
Since I live alone, the Bounty Select-A-Size paper towels fit perfectly into my life! I LOVE them!
Thanks for a chance at the giveaway!
Likes Bounty!
I would love to try the blast flipstick! It would be fun to get so many looks from one product.
The Bounty paper towels will be helpful for cleaning up and getting ready for the holidays.
I buy and use Bounty® paper towels all the time.
With this being the season of colds and flus we wash our hands a lot and Bounty Paper towels would be perfect. We can choose a larger size or smaller size to our preference.
Thank you for the opportunity(;
I like my 2-ply paper towels. When it is too much for my needs I tear it in half.
We use bounty for everything!
Bounty fits b/c it is strong and always tears right when I grab it.
bounty paper towels would be good to have to clean up puppy 'puddles'
[email protected]
I love to bake so Bounty would definitely help me clean up in the kitchen.
Bounty paper towel would fit into our everyday life for the spilled milk, the greasy pizza, and lunches
I've tried a lot of brands, but the Bounty select-a-size ones are the only ones I buy in bulk. I love grabbing the right-sized towel for the specific mess. Shoot, I use the single section as a napkin most of the time. =X
Bounty would help me clean up whenever necessary.
I love Bounty paper towels. I use them to clean pot & pans, scrub the shower and for cleaning my kitchen counters and table.
we use bounty multiple times a day as napkins and for spills
I like the 2 in 1 flipstick. I use bounty towel for everything, cleaning kitchen, bathroom, vegetables, meat. I use the basic 1 ply towels to use as few as possible. Thanks for the review and giveaway.

I wear COVERGIRL lipstick all the time. I'd like to try this COVERGIRL Blast Flipstick
I have a 6 year old so Bounty paper towels are constantly used in my house! And I can always use a great new lipstick!
I currently don't have any lipsticks, so getting a two-in-one would be perfect!
im so lazy to wear lip stick… i mean i love burts bees chapstick. but would love to try covergirl blast
I'm looking for pretty, neutral, and affordable lip products that I can wear to work!
Bounty is my favorite kind of paper towels; they'd probably be used for what I use them for now – cleaning up after my little brother. Even though he's a teenager, he manages to make a mess doing anything in the kitchen.
Bounty paper towels clean up the heavier messes in the kitchen and definitely less sheets used on a day to day basis in my life.
I almost always buy the Bounty single sheets. Tried other brands and generics but always go back to Bounty.
Bounty helps me clean kitchen mess and make my life easier.
tcarolinep at gmail dot com
I would use the Bounty as the breathable cover over my Kombucha brewing jar and the lipstick…well, that can be for the weekends when I go out to relax after I begin student teaching this January.
I don't usually wear lipstick, so this would be a fun way to dress up!
chambanachik at gmail dot com
i like to wear lip gloss etc and this would be a fun addition! Thanks for a chance to win and have a great day!
I use several sheets of Bounty everyday, I don't use lipstick.
I have used Bounty towels on and off for many years and have never been disappointed. Very good absorbency and help me wipe up little spills all the more expeditiously. As for Cover Girl, I haven't used their makeup in a long time because I have had to cut back on my spending, as I'm out of a job right now, BUT the lipsticks I used were always nice with many vibrant colours to choose from!
Bounty 2-ply is like egyption cotton soft.
As a student who goes to class in the day and hangs out with friends at night, the COVERGIRL Blast Flipstick lets me change up my look without wasting time searching through my makeup bag for the perfect lip color.
Thank you for this contest!!
This would be perfect for me to wear to work, and easy to carry along.
Thanks for the chance to win!

Saving time is important to me, so having a paper towel that doesn't fall apart the minute it's damp, and having a lipstick that doesn't have to be re-applied all day sounds great!
I'd use the COVERGIRL Blast Flipstick pretty often, especially in the winter to keep my lips soft.
I like the duo colors in the COVERGIRL Blast Flipstick, I can apply one shade in the morning and the other in the evening, I would keep one tucked away in my clutch to keep handy while on the go, no searching for multiple lipsticks in the bottom of my purse.. Makes me feel confident and pretty when I add a little lip color.

Bounty helps with my messes.
Thanks for the contest.
I use Bounty and love how well they clean up spills.
I don't wear makeup, so the paper towels would be the item I would use. I would use them to clean up after my cats and for the rare occasions I deep fry foods…to drain the oil from the food.
I tweeted here: https://twitter.com/MsTofuFairy/status/285807665031032832

I don't wear much makeup so the lipstick would be more of a special occasion thing. Now paper towels, that's another story. I love the way Bounty keeps my messes under control so I don't end up with a major cleaning job.
I use Bounty paper towels all the time everywhere.
Bounty would make it easy to clean up behind four kids after dinner

Knowledgeable NFL fans: Should Zach Thomas be inducted in the Hall of Fame?
Might possibly be the best undersized MLB in the modern era. He was 5'11'', and only 225. That is tiny for a middle linebacker.
Anyway, through the first 13 seasons of their career, Thomas had more tackles, forced fumbles, and touchdowns than Ray Lewis. Lewis had more sacks, and INTs. I think Lewis is definitely the best linebacker of our era, so I think he's a good measuring stick to gauge Thomas. Also keep in mind Ray Lewis is 6'1'', 250, your prototypical size for a MLB - well, maybe an inch shorter.
Zach never really got the recognition he deserved because he played mainly in a post-Marino era in Miami, on teams that never were standout. But he was as consistent as any player has ever been; his longevity, especially for being so undersized, and at such a physically demanding position, is crazy. . . with only one season heavily plagued by injuries (played 5 games, and still had 52 tackles!).
Here are Zach's career stats:

Yes and he will be inducted eventually.
I met him about 7-8 years ago when I used to work in the Mall and he was mad cool and humble. Kinda short guy, but f*ckin stacked like a mofo (at least then)

Definitely. Won't be first-ballot, but will make it.
Though, I'm boycotting the HoF until Steve Tasker makes it. Special teams are 1/3 of the game.

If you put him in the hall you'd have to consider putting in a guy like London Fletcher as well, who IMO, is/was a better overall LB than Thomas.
But I'd say yes to Thomas off the fact that he was one of the best in the pros as well at the collegiate level with Texas Tech

I used to always trade for him in Madden and I think he has the career record for sacks in a season when he was on my team... for that alone he deserves in

Yep just buying loads at the moment, as I am finding them cheap will save me downloading them at a later date, since the wii release, though I am sure they will go backup in price.
ZELDA the wind waker awesome game
I think the last game i bought for GC was either Xmen Legends 2 or Megaman X Mega Collection. Not sure

Mine was probably Harvest Moon Maic Melody which stunk! I might get the new paper mario when it comes out though because the last one was my favorite game for 2 months. If you are looking for a good game get Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door it has side quest and is 2 months of fun!
wii would like to play..now!
Well here's something really stupid as far as things going full circle go. I sold my GC to buy a PS2 (for the M games) and ended up selling my PS2 to buy a Wii. So now, any GC games that I liked I can buy again. Stupid... I know. Oh, for the record, the PS2 M games were hyped and I realize now I had more fun with my CG. C'est la vie.
Oh no... Wii suck again!
i'd buy the half complete zelda collection its an antique but i might get one for 20 bucks
Google is your friend
Ceraintly Own:
Wii,RedSteel,Legend of Zelda,The godfather ,R4DS & DS,prince of persia
My last buy was Mario Sunshine but I rented a lot of games for my Game Cube, but I might go out and buy Custom Robo. I played it like 1 1/2 years ago and didn't beat it but I loved it... so, now I might go out and buy it to finish it and unlock everything...
Damn, I really want to play it now.
Oh yeah, I might also get Battalion Wars just to get used to it kind of until BW2 comes out on Wii.

Admissions Guru Howard Greene Helps High School Seniors Get into the College or University of Their Choice
Since 1968 Howard Greene, as a paid consultant, has helped more than 25,000 students weigh their strengths, identify schools that fit their needs and market themselves to college admissions officers. A Dartmouth graduate and himself a former admissions officer at Princeton University, Greene, 63, is the author, with his son Matthew, 33, of several college guides, including Making It into a Top College. Greene—who lives in Wilton, Conn., and whose wife, Laurie, 53, is a consultant for his firm—has four children: Adam, 35, an investment banker; Matthew; Katharine, 20, a student at Vander-bilt University; and Andrew, 13. Greene spoke with reporter Liza Hamm about what students can do to improve their admission odds.
What are colleges looking for?
The quality of preparation is fundamental, especially at the more selective schools. Colleges look for strong academics in a good curriculum, leadership, teacher recommendations, passion for a key activity or two—and testing to back that up. But then they look for something that just grabs them.
What's the best way to grab them?
Students need to project—honestly and effectively—this is who I am, this is my voice, this is what's important for you to know about me. In their essays, they need to write well, write from the heart and make it personal. They should write about things that have made a difference to them, challenges they have overcome—such as a learning disability, a parent's divorce or death—serious events that had a big impact.
What if your life has been peaceful and normal?
A lot of kids ask just that question. But even seemingly mundane experiences—learning to sail with a father, helping a grandmother with her garden—can make a wonderful essay. One of my favorites was written by a young lady, now at Yale, about her life—including a summer archaeology expedition to Greece—as seen through a pair of old sneakers her mother wanted her to throw out.
Any "don'ts"?
Avoid repetition. If somebody's a strong swimmer, not everything in the application should be about swimming. Get rid of clueless statements like, "I had this incredible experience." Get the slang out. Don't use clichés. And don't be afraid to take a risk in your writing.
Aren't SAT and ACT scores more critical than ever?
Yes, because of the increase in college applications. And over the next decade we'll see the largest college-going high school graduating classes ever. So colleges are looking for ways to distinguish among lots of talented students. Testing is one way.
What if you're a weak tester?
Our theme is, Start early. If students find out that they're not testing well compared to how they do in classes, they can start working on vocabulary building, reading, fundamentals. It sounds like a cliché, but if you want to prime your child for educational success, read, read, read. Read to your kids when they're young. Read with your kids as they start to get older, and keep asking your kids what they're reading when they're older still.
What are some of the biggest myths?
The No. 1 myth is that if my kid goes to the most prestigious college, then he or she is set up for life. Conversely, if they don't go to a prestigious college, they're not going to succeed in life. No college can guarantee success as much as hard work.
Does applying for financial aid hurt a student's chances at the best private colleges?
Absolutely not. The top colleges use their big endowments not only to hire great faculty and build facilities, but for financial aid. Over half of the student body at many elite liberal arts colleges receives some aid.
What should you avoid on the application?
Avoid overloading. Kids often feel that they have to put down everything they've done since first grade. There's more impact in short and significant. Don't thicken the folder with outside help. Good teacher recommendations matter most.
How can the parent-child relationship survive the stress of the admissions process?
Most of all, laugh a lot. To the parents—let the kids define what they want. Remember, it's not life threatening. For the kids, see this not as the end of your lives but as a huge set of opportunities. And enjoy the rest of high school. High school isn't only about college. It's about the life you're living today.

Navy Reservist Paul Berkley spent most of 2005 in the Middle East as part of a unit charged with moving equipment from ship to shore. The 46-year-old sailor returned to his home in Raleigh, N.C., on Dec. 14, in time to spend the holidays with his family – but just four days later he was dead from a gunshot wound to the head, the Associated Press reports.
Now, his 26-year-old wife Monique and two 18-year-old males are being held without bond in the sailor's killing, one of whom is said to be Monique's teenage lover.
The shooting occurred early Sunday morning as Berkley and his wife were walking in a park. Police say Monique called 911 on her cell phone to report that two men had attacked the couple. She suffered a gunshot wound to the shoulder, and Paul Berkley's last breaths can be heard on the recording of the call. Police found Monique next to her husband, who died later in the day.
Soon, details of a troubled relationship began to develop, even though Paul Berkley may not have been aware of any problems.
Andrew Canty, one of the men held in the attack, had moved in with Monique Berkley shortly after her husband's deployment in January. Canty had become acquainted with Monique through Paul Berkley's other children, which included an 18-year-old son, Zeke, and a stepdaughter, Becky, 16, AP reports.
Canty began an affair with the married woman, which he later confessed to his mother, Christine Canty.
"It bothered me because she was older, and I wondered why she was hanging out with my son," Christine Canty told The (Raleigh) News & Observer. "He figured he was a grown man and could do what he wanted."
Latwon Johnson, the other man held in the attack, began dating Becky Berkley around the same time. Becky is not believed to have had anything to do with the attacks.
But if Paul Berkley suspected anything was going on with his wife, to whom he'd been married five years, he didn't reveal it. Shortly before he left Bahrain, where he was stationed, he counted down the days until his departure, and wrote that he was "still pretty jazzed (to be) going home however briefly."

Google Nexus 10 specs review: $400 to push 4 million pixels
0. phoneArena 30 Oct 2012, 08:30 posted on
Apparently a direct reply to what Apple and Microsoft came up with in the tablet space going into the new holiday shopping season, Google saved its best for last - a 10" tablet built by Samsung with class-beating resolution and processor at a 25% discount to the competitors. Let's take a tour of the specs to gauge what can we expect from this tiger...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

Lol iPad 4 > nexus 10
4. wendygarett (unregistered)
Reason? ?????????
9. MeoCao (unregistered)
iPad 4 is heavier and more expensive and more eye strain obviously LOL.
37. bayusuputra (Posts: 963; Member since: 12 Feb 2012)
it means you LOL at the iPad more than the Nexus 10..
7. protozeloz (Posts: 5396; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
Why is that?
12. Ohrules (Posts: 327; Member since: 11 Jun 2012)
"lol iPad 4"
just sayin'
15. Nimpuz (Posts: 8; Member since: 15 Mar 2012)
As much as I prefer any android phones over iphone or WPs, Android ecosystem for tablet is still not as neat as the iPad.
And IMO costumization is a lot more fun on smaller screens!
18. RaKithAPeiRiZ (Posts: 1488; Member since: 29 Dec 2011)
What if I told you , the RGB matrix in the Nexus 10 kills your iPad 3.5
19. SleepingOz (unregistered)
You mean Nexus 10 > iPad 4, right?
20. leftheodo (Posts: 95; Member since: 21 Oct 2011)
ahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! I own an iPad 3 (or the old new iPad) and your comment is still hilarious.
25. thunder18 (Posts: 126; Member since: 06 Aug 2009)
Trolling much?
"These design decisions made the Nexus 10 thinner and lighter than the aluminum 4th generation iPad, despite the slightly larger display."
"The Nexus 10 is the first tablet to appear with a Cortex-A15 processor, which is the next generation of the ARM-based architecture that we have in current phones and tablets. Apple's A6 and Snapdragon's Krait cores might use some instruction sets from Cortex-A15, but the Samsung Exynos 5250 is the real deal, and its leaked benchmarks come to prove it."
"...10" screen Samsung had that can surpass the new iPad's "Resolutionary" screen in terms of pixel density..."
The only way the iPad4 wins is in terms of ecosystem, I will give it that.
28. RushFan2112 (Posts: 26; Member since: 16 Jun 2011)
Who really cares about "ecosystem"? All of the apps I use on my Nexus 7 work very well.
And I would, ANY DAY, rather turn on my Android tablet and see a bunch of widgets giving me the information that I want rather than a bunch of do-nothing icons that I need to click on to get any info at all.
Widgets FTW!
32. abdane (Posts: 494; Member since: 07 Oct 2011)
the only thing iPad have over Nexus 10 is apps for iPad and the battery, Screen is for nexus 10, speed and processor for nexus 10, OS of course android Nexus 10, EVERY THING NEXUS 10 !

2. PhenomFaz (Posts: 1236; Member since: 26 Sep 2012)
They delivered more than a compelling arguement, they delivered a punchline...with a lot of PUNCH!
And be it pentile or not, at 300 ppi its not goona even matter what sub pixel arrangement it uses as the screen is gonna be awesome...period!
13. MeoCao (unregistered)
You took the words from my mouth dude
The more I look at Nexus 10 the more I like it, stunning design. This this is for comfortable holding and warm and not cold aluminum as some other tablets.
29. AppleHateBoy (unregistered)
9,000 mAH battery and no claims of battery life. Something fishy is going on here.
Rumor has it that Cortex A15s were built for servers and they are power-inefficient. That's why ARM pushed for big.LITTLE configurations. So, I suspect them. This would also explain why they are only clocked at 1.7 GHz as Cortex A15s are supposed to reach upto 2.5 GHz.
Another power-inefficient component could be the Super AMOLED screen. But considering the Tab 7.7's battery life, I assume the screen is not an issue.
35. AWiseGuy (Posts: 68; Member since: 30 Oct 2012)
"Another power-inefficient component could be the Super AMOLED screen."
Well, I'd say that depends on how you use it. As I understand, AMOLED is as efficient as you could ask for when it's displaying lots of colors or blacks. However, turn on white and it becomes a power hog, right? I guess that people who browse a lot will notice a hit to the battery life, considering most websites have white backgrounds, but those who use this tablet for media consumption (movies, games, etc) will not see such drains because those tend towards darker and more colorful displays.
39. Twisted247 (Posts: 282; Member since: 12 Oct 2012)
Another reason they are probably clocking it at 1.7Ghz when it's capable of 2.5Ghz(from what you said) is so they can use the same cpu for the next 3-5 releases and slowly turn it up and maybe add some RAM in the future. None of these companies will spill out 100% of what they are capable with right out of the gate. Then if a competitor happens to release something better they will be rushing in R&D and pushing a early release with a host of issues. They always have to keep s**t on the back burner that is tried true and tested. So at any moment they can drop a bomb on the competition. Not to mention the whole other reason for money, they can slowly upgrade it over time and make 10x the cash on the same cpu + gpu combo slowly bumping it up rather then jump dumping it on full bore.

I don't believe PA is right on the Pentile screen. Both Engadget and TheVerge reported it having the PLS-LCD display.

Google in video for theverge.com said it is True RGB Real Stripe PLS Display. Not sure what it is :p

36. Obie-Wan (Posts: 86; Member since: 24 May 2012)
If i'm not mistaken, The New iPad indeed use PLS display which made by Samsung.
The iPad Mini, use Sharp's IGZO display.
Correct me if i'm wrong.

Nexus 10 has a PLS screen, or how Google likes to call it "True RGB Real Stripe PLS"!
It is RGB!
44. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
The article said it *MIGHT* be Pentile. Plus, it's already been confirmed to have a PLS display which uses RGB.
And even if it was Pentile, it still has 36 more ppi than the iPad. Pentile doesn't really matter when it's at a much higher resolution than the competition's RGB display. Nobody would've complained about Pentile on the Galaxy S3 if it was at 348 ppi because it wouldn't have been noticeable from the One X's 312 ppi, it would've actually been better.
Nice try to bash Samsung/Google, but you weren't even close to succeeding.

Trolling much?
"These design decisions made the Nexus 10 thinner and lighter than the aluminum 4th generation iPad, despite the slightly larger display."
"The Nexus 10 is the first tablet to appear with a Cortex-A15 processor, which is the next generation of the ARM-based architecture that we have in current phones and tablets. Apple's A6 and Snapdragon's Krait cores might use some instruction sets from Cortex-A15, but the Samsung Exynos 5250 is the real deal, and its leaked benchmarks come to prove it."
"...10" screen Samsung had that can surpass the new iPad's "Resolutionary" screen in terms of pixel density..."
The only way the iPad4 wins is in terms of ecosystem, I will give it that.

i guess google is just giving some space for other tablets thats why the microSd slot is not in their devices or else - end of the world for other tablets

"...Google saved its best for last - a 10" tablet built by Samsung with class-beating resolution and processor at a 25% discount to the competitors."
Last I checked, $400 is a 20% discount from $500, not 25%.
100 / 500 = 1/5 = 0.20 = 20%

The new edition of this excellent book has been rewritten to bring it up to date. It is dedicated in memory of Dr. Godfrey R. Pisek, whose untimely death cut short a brilliant career. The co-author with Dr. Chapin is now Dr. Royster.
Much of the edition has necessarily been rewritten and some of the chapters are considerably enlarged. Those on "Scarlet Fever" and other communicable diseases have received special consideration, and contain excellent colored illustrations of these conditions. New illustrations have been added in other parts of the book, and an entirely new chapter has been written on "The Care of the Dependent Infants and Children," giving a valuable discussion of the subject. The book should have the same success as has had all previous editions.

CARLISLE — The borough council plans to vote on a rezoning amendment that could make way for warehouses to be built on Carlisle's west side and decide on the use of an access road that is critical to the project in the region.
"There's a lot of people interested in this, and I don't see any point in dragging this out," said Councilwoman Robin Guido during a council meeting Thursday.
But California-based developer Goodman Birtcher's representatives had little to say about the Carlisle action to vote before May on the rezoning amendment.
"We're going to wait to see what happens in Dickinson Township on Monday," said Troy Briggs, Goodman Birtcher's northeast regional director, referring to the supervisors' meeting set to begin at 6 p.m. on St. Patrick's Day.
The plan for four warehouses straddling more than 3 million square feet has fueled heated debate and opposition in Dickinson Township, where the two largest warehouses would be built. Carlisle's zoning amendment only would allow warehouses in the small part of that property in the borough, where they now are prohibited in the industrial commercial zone.
However, Carlisle's role as the access point for the warehouses off Allen Road has become its own issue, and the council proposed an ordinance amendment that would prohibit private access across municipal boundaries where the use or zoning in the other municipality conflicts with that in Carlisle.
And if Dickinson Township approves the rezoning, that would be the case for the Goodman Birtcher warehouse plan.
But Goodman Birtcher's attorney said any ordinance targeting a specific project, in this case the access road and warehouse plan, wouldn't be sustainable.
"We have a right to access," said Charles M. Courtney, an attorney with Harrisburg-based law firm McNees Wallace & Nurick representing Goodman Birtcher.
After a half hour executive session, Councilman Sean Schultz said the council was confident in the advice it received from its solicitor
Overall, most of Carlisle's councilmembers took an agnostic view Thursday night of the warehouse issue in their comments, deferring to Dickinson Township's ultimate decision on the rezoning request for the warehouses there.
"If something goes forward there, then we can try to make it work in the borough," Councilwoman Robin Guido said.
Council members scheduled a 6:30 p.m. May 8 public hearing on the ordinance amendment concerning the access road.
They are expected to arrive at a date for the special meeting on the rezoning amendment soon.

As quarterbacks continue to organize player workouts, the speculation surrounding free agency continues to grow.
There are more than a few big-name players expected to hit the market whenever the league year opens and with the draft in the books we can see which teams are angling for which players.
Arizona and Seattle need new starting quarterbacks.
The wide receiver market could be flooded with talent and major names like Randy Moss and Terrell Owens, both on the downside of their careers, could be left out in the cold when all is said and done.
Nnamdi Asomugha is the biggest free agent name available and he will command top dollar from any team interested.
Speculation has circled over him for a while now and there is the chance of him going to just about any team with money to spend.
As for the quarterbacks on the market, Matt Hasselbeck and Marc Bulger lead the charge but Donovan McNabb and Kevin Kolb, two former teammates in Philadelphia, need to find new homes as potential starters as well via the trade market.
I am not positive McNabb deserves to start with a competition and if he was to go to, say Minnesota, I wouldn't be shocked if Christian Ponder eventually took over the job.
Other big names to keep an eye on include guard Logan Mankins, tackle Matt Light, running backs Ricky Williams, Ronnie Brown, Darren Sproles and Cedric Benson, as well as cornerback Ike Taylor, safety Quintin Mikell and linebacker Barrett Ruud.
Whenever the NFL gives us free agency, it is going to be a wild first week of action for sure.
Here are the latest rumors on all the big names in both the trade and free agency markets.

Many health status surveys have been designed for mail, telephone, or inperson administration. However, with rare exception, investigators have not studied the effect the survey mode of administration has on the way respondents assess their health and other important parameters (such as response rates, nonresponse bias, and data quality), which can affect the generalizability of results. Using a national sampling frame of noninstitutionalized adults from the General Social Survey, we randomly assigned adults to a mail survey (80%) or a computer-assisted telephone survey (20%). The surveys were designed to provide national norms for the SF-36 Health Survey. Total data collection costs per case for the telephone survey ($47.86) were 77% higher than that for the mail survey ($27.07). A significantly higher response rate was achieved among respondents randomly assigned to the mail (79.2%) than telephone survey (68.9%). Nonresponse bias was evident in both modes but, with the exception of age, was not differential between modes. The rate of missing responses was higher for mail than telephone respondents (1.59 vs. 0.49 missing items). Health ratings based on the SF-36 scales were less favorable, and reports of chronic conditions were more frequent, for mail than telephone respondents. Results are discussed in light of the trade-offs involved in choosing a survey methodology for health status assessment applications. Norms for mail and telephone versions of the SF-36 survey are provided for use in interpreting individual and group scores.

This Week's Topic: Solid Foundations
This Week's Goal: Understand the importance of a solid foundation.
This Week's Bible Reference: Luke 6:46-49
Family Devotional
Younger Children: Use blocks or Legos to build a few different towers; be sure to have one with a small (weaker) base and one with a large (stronger) base.
Older Children/Teenagers: Have a contest to see who can build the largest/tallest house of playing cards.
Please feel free to do what best fits your family! (See the Intro. to Family Devotions)
Song Suggestions (based on the topic): 'The Wise Man Built his House Upon the Rock' (Children's song), 'Solid Rock On Christ the Solid Rock' (Hymn), 'Where I Stand' (praise song- Craig Bidondo)
Bible Reading:
*Note: This parable is not found in all Children's Bibles; telling the story with the activity above may help younger children to understand it best.
Luke 6:46-49 (New Living Translation) Feel free to use a different translation.
46) "So why do you keep calling me 'Lord, Lord!' when you don't do what I say? 47) I will show you what it's like when someone comes to me, listens to my teaching, and then follows it. 48)It is like a person building a house who digs deep and lays the foundation on solid rock. When the floodwaters rise and break against that house, it stands firm because it is well-built. 49) But anyone who hears and doesn't obey is like a person who builds a house without a foundation. When the floods sweep down against that house, it will collapse into a heap of ruins."
Family Discussion Questions: (*questions geared towards younger children)
- *Which tower was stronger? Why? (Demonstrate during discussion if needed)
- *Who is the strongest base we can have for our lives? Who can always be our helper?
- *If we want God to be our base (foundation) what do we need to do?
- Which card house was the strongest? Why?
- How does the base of the card house compare with our lives?
- What does a solid foundation of a house (or other building) all for the builder to do?
- What importance does Jesus give to foundations in our lives?
- According to Jesus what does a firm foundation for our lives look like (How do you build one)? What does that look like in our lives?
- How does a strong foundation in our lives bring glory to God?
This is a great and easy format to follow as a family:
A-Adoration: What things did you learn about God today? Thank God for those things.
C-Confession: Confess your sins to each other and God; it is helpful if a parent takes the lead in this activity.
T-Thanksgiving: Thank God for what He has done in your lives this week and that He wants to be our foundation!
S-Supplication: God loves us and loves to bless us. Tell God the desires of your heart.
Extension Activity/Discussion Starters for the Week:
- Rebuild a house of cards (or a tower for younger children). Ask them if the built it differently this time? Why?
- Discuss what types of things people use as a foundation for their lives and what happens when that foundation falls apart?
- Discuss if there are things in your lives that you put in place of God as a foundation.
- Build a tower out of something else fun (leftovers at dinner, snacks, etc.) Make it into a fun, silly challenge!

It would be Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!! I love Kingdom Hearts.
Lets Hope So...
KH2 Final Remix Is Gonna Come Out With A One-On-One Battle With Sora And Roxas ANd A 3-D Chain Of Memories.
In Case You Didn't Notice...
And XEMNAS
It would be Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!! I love Kingdom Hearts.
Here's an idea.
Disney = Mickey
Square = Cloud
Nintendo = Mario
Kingdom Hearts 2 had Mickey and Cloud.
Kingdom Hearts 3 could have Mario and friends as well? Yes, I'm going there.
Owned: Excite Truck [8 GRP], Wii Sports [6G, 7R, 8P], Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess [9G, 5RP], Elebits [7GR, 5P], Wii Play [5G, 8RP], The Godfather: Blackhand Edition [10G, 9R, 7P], Super Paper Mario [8G, 6R, 5P], SSX Blur [10 GRP].
Rented: Rayman Raving Rabbids [6G, 7R, 9P].
Wanted: Resident Evil 4, no Wii games currently.
G = Gameplay Rating, R = Replay Value, P = Party Rating, all out of 10.
Wow, thats the stupidest idea ever.....
Mario wouldn't fit in.. it's just weird. Someone like Link though, that could work. On the entire idea, it'd be awesome if it happened, but we all know the chances are slim to none.
That Guys Right.Originally Posted by Esco27
...I bet that won't happen. xD I'm pretty sure it's sticking to playstation... sadly. ;__;
Well even though its only rumour, its possible.
I mean, Nomura said there were a few announcements about the KH series to be expected this year. Maybe a title will see life on the Wii? Who knows.
Disney did set up a studio to develop for the Wii, and even though thats completely unrelated its a start. Both Square and Disney are being closer with Nintendo.
And if they included Nintendo characters in a KHWii then Mario would have to be there, plain and simple. He is Mario.
Competitive Smash > Casual Smash > Online Smash

i hope it comes to the wii coz the games are some of the best ive ever played but the chances are quite slim
Thanks To Dan.Skater For The Awesome Sig!

As for this ever happeneing...it never will. This game is soley for Squaresoft and Disney Characters.
