The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D
How many times will you buy the same game? If Nintendo get their way, the answer is a lot. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time has already appeared on every Nintendo platform capable of handling it since 1998. This 3DS version is the game's sixth release in 13 years.
But, damn them, Nintendo's canny tricks may just work again. Because this isn't just a simple port. Not quite. With spruced-up visuals, a refined UI, and a bit of 3D thrown into the mix, Ocarina of Time remains a sorely tempting prospect.
Of course, it helps that it's also widely regarded as one of the best games ever. A handy little detail that Nintendo seem intent on leveraging.
So then, that aside, what does it play like? Well it's fundamentally the same, ultimately. Moving Link around, locking on to enemies, swiping your sword - all of it feels warmly familiar. Aided by the 3DS's decent analogue "circle pad," recreating the old days is quick and painless.
There's some nicely-implemented use of the touch screen, by way of innovation. Here you can charge around the inventory system, equipment list and map with ease, tapping away with your thumb. Most of the icons are big and chunky, so there's no need to flap about with a stylus.
You can also talk to Navi, your guide, by clicking on the bottom screen when she calls.
It's a good system, one that reduces both clutter - the bottom screen is now used to show which buttons your weapons are assigned to - and fiddling, as you don't have to pause the game in the traditional sense and start rummaging around in the menus. Hardly thrilling stuff, but it does make for a smoother experience.
So let's get in to the more remarkable innovations. Tap the eye icon on the bottom screen and Link's view will change to first-person. It's here that the gyroscopic controls come into play, allowing you to aim with your body.
Basically, if you move around, the camera follows. Rotating your body left and right pans the camera with you. It's kind of cool really, a neat little trick, but not really practical if you're on the bus. Or anywhere in public, for that matter. In those cases you are better off just using the analogue controls to achieve the same effect.
Then there's the 3D. Which is a puzzling one. It works, it certainly does that. Link's large and chunky character model stands out well from the environment and the depth of it is quite impressive. You get a better sense of your surroundings as a result.
But like all other 3DS games, you have to find the optimum viewing angle (admittedly a pretty comfy one) and stick rigidly to it. Any deviation turns the screen into a blurry mess.
That's not the issue though. The issue is that it adds little or nothing to the experience. It looks cool but, as it's an old game, the 3D effects are merely aesthetic. Which sounds like a silly thing to say - of course they're aesthetic. But what I mean is that it adds nothing to the gameplay.
I look forward to seeing what Nintendo can conjure up for future 3DS Zelda instalments, as the 3D definitely adds scope for innovation. But here it's largely redundant.
This may all seem quite negative, but it's worth re-stating my comments from earlier. This is one of the best games evermade. It's just brilliant. Unless something goes horribly wrong with the rest of the conversion to 3DS, it will be great.But my focus has to be on what's new here. And what's new is solid, rather than astounding.
The graphics, for instance. They've received a polish and they look pretty good. A vast improvement over the original.But they are still some way short of something like Resident Evil: Mercenaries 3DS, which a fantastic looking game. Every plus is tempered by a caveat.
Ultimately, you get the feeling that Ocarina of Time 3DS has been made to provide a big name, first-party push to the handheld's early lifespan, without Nintendo having to stress themselves too much. The game started out as a tech-demo, don't forget, and it's hard not imagine a board meeting where someone shrugged and said, "We might as well release it then."
Unless Nintendo have got some unannounced tricks up their sleeve for Ocarina of Time 3DS, it will be difficult to shrug that feeling off.
But who am I kidding? We'll all probably buy it anyway. It's Ocarina of Time fer Christ's sake! You win again Nintendo, just this one last time.

Artists First is a group of 16 disabled visual artists with learning difficulties based in Bristol.
We have been working together since 1988; we are used to running our own studios and have organised, or have been part of many exhibitions, residencies and open studio events.
Artists First includes artists who met while attending Social Services' Day Centres and artists who have lived in long stay residential hospitals. We believe that as a group we can support each other and that we can do powerful work together, things that we could not do alone.
Since 2005 we have been based in a studio in Southmead, near where most of us live. We are make new work for exhibitions so people can see who we are and what we do.
We've recently begun work on one of our biggest projects yet as part of our 25th anniversary year.
To watch a short film introducing Artists First, go to www.redweather.co.uk/artistsfirst
Artists First Celebrating 25 years
Past, Present and Future Artists First has a amazing archive of artworks and we all have great stories to tell of how art has helped us and why we like working as a group.
We've begun work on sorting out our archive and recording our stories. We'll make films and photograph more of our work and add it all to a new website. All this is funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
Our Heritage project, will be led by the artists and will research the history of Artists First. Over the next year we will meet old friends, remember past artists, create an archive, make films, run workshops for young people and produce an Artists First book.
Artists First exhibit in Southmead Hospital Artists First are thrilled and proud to be exhibiting over 30 paintings in the new Southmead Hospital building as part of the Fresh Arts programme to enhance NHS environments.
Ann Pugh
In February, Artists First where part of a celebration day for our dear friend and long term supporter, Ann Pugh.
Ann died in February 2015. Ann became an Artist First trustee in 2005 but we knew her long before that.
She became our Chair, she worked with us and supported us.
Ann loved our art, she filmed us, she was important to every one of us, she was there for us.
Ann was our friend.
Being part of that day meant a lot to all of us.
Seeing Ann's wonderful, sensitive and beautiful films, joining with so many friends and colleges and sharing stories and memories of Ann was fantastic, hundreds of people came.
Each one of us made new art to show and share for the day, including portraits of Ann, because the best way we have of remembering people is through our art. We've started experimenting, taking risks, working big, all the things Ann loved. Ann helped us get the Heritage Lottery Fund money that means we can tell the story of Artists First's last 25 years and help us start the next and because of Ann we'll tell that story through portraiture, through art because that's who we are, Artists First.
National Portrait Gallery visit
In November of last year along with award winning artist James Lake, photographer Kamina Walton, Ann's partner and daughter Frank and Ruby, Artists First went to the National Portrait Gallery in London.
We went there because of Ann. This trip was Ann's idea, it was something we'd all talked about, something for all of us to go on, to have a great day, to be inspired, to have fun. Ever since then we have be making portraits of all kinds, often large scale, inspired by many of the people we have been remembering as part of the Past, Present, Future project. This was one of the best days Artists First have ever had and it was all thanks to the generous donations of family and friends made in memory of Ann Pugh. Thank you to everyone.
New members
In March and April this year Artists First ran a series of four open workshops for potential new members.
The first two workshops, on new ways of making portraits, were led by disabled artist James Lake, and the second two by coordinators, Louise and Andy on mono printing.
The workshops were designed by Artists First artists to enable the people taking part to feel part of the workshop no matter their skill level, the session included artists talking about the history of Artists First and what it means to be a member of the group. They also explained how a supported studio works, how to build up a portfolio and how you share your work through exhibitions and linking with the wider arts community, basically how you get to be seen as 'Artists First'. Thanks to Wills Charitable Trust for supporting these workshops.

Friday, 13 February 2009
As Geert Wilders said yesterday, the British government was 'cowardly' for suppressing his freedom of speech by ejecting him from the U.K. virtually upon arrival at Heathrow. We posted yesterday that Wilders is going on to Rome, where, on February 19th, he will present his film "Fitna" at an invitation-only event. In addition to the screening, a news release issued today from the International Free Press Society notes:
The February 19 event will also include an address by Mr. Wilders, a press conference, and a ceremony during which "A Way for Oriana" will award Mr. Wilders with the Orianna Fallaci Free Speech Award, an honor that will recognize the parliamentarian, like the late Italian author and journalist, as a "symbol of the fight against Islamic fascism and a knight of the freedom of humankind."
The event will be held at the Grand Palatino Hotel in Via Cavour 213, Rome, Italy. For security reasons, the conference is being restricted to those who have received invitations only.
Fitna will next be screened in smaller gatherings in the United States later this month, including assemblies in the New York and Washington, DC areas.
Wilders noted what are the objectives of his Facing Jihad World tour:
"This event is part of the 'Facing Jihad' world tour for Fitna that will serve to expose Islam for what it is, an ideology that preaches terrorism, anti-Semitism and the oppression of women, homosexuals and non-Muslims" said Mr. Wilders.
"Educating the public about the harsh realities of Islamization is the first step to effectively combating and ultimately defeating Global Jihad," said Mr. Wilders.
Wilders leader of the Freedom Party in the Dutch parliament is facing criminal prosecution for effectively insulting a religion, Islam, in Holland arising from a controversial Amsterdam appeals court decision last month.
Notwithstanding the decision to bar entry of Wilders yesterday by the Gordon Brown government in Whitehall, "Fitna" was shown to a private gathering at the House of Lords sponsored by Lord Pearson and Baroness Cox. The U.K. Home office letter and actions by immigration officials at Heathrow airport is a reflection of deepening intimidation by the British Muslim community led by Lord Ahmed who had threatened to bring 10,000 Muslims to the Westminster parliament to protest Wilders and the showing of "Fitna".
Britons were perturbed with its government's decision to bar entry to Wilders. As reflected in a Daily Mail poll with the question, "Should Dutch MP Geert Wilders be allowed to address the House of Lords?" more than four fifths, 86 percent, responded that Wilders should have been permitted to present and speak at their Parliament.

Well said! I'm in the UK and am somewhat racked off that our government of PC-soaked idiots (our Home Secretary, Jacqui Smith, being the chief culprit at the moment for banning Wilders) are stepping on freedom of expression right, left and centre. I blog often on free speech as part of a wider remit at the <i>Pink Triangle</i> blog, and my latest on the Wilders fiasco has links to the others. You will see that I've been rather angry, and I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one.

Ruined my vision . Had to have Restore lenses removrf
Dr. Lee performed cataract surgery for me. The surgery went well. I could see better. Later my vision seemed to diminish. I went back many times. Dr. Lee rushed in told me to use tears and rushed out. I still have diminished vision. The optical shop in his office made my glasses. The first time they did not measure for trifocals. I got glasses with bifocals. Second time still no measurement. Got trifocals but they were in the wrong place. Got measured(?) still wrong. Lenses had chips in the edges. Still not right. Will NOT go back.
I was diagnosed with cataracts and I was very nervous about my condition. I was referred to the Lee Eye Institute for cataract surgery. I had so many concerns with the procedure since I have never had surgery before and was terrified that I might go blind if something went wrong. I expressed my uneasiness to Dr. Lee and he was very comforting. He ensured that I was in good hands and that he and his staff would be by my side through the entire process. The surgery went as well as I had hoped and now my vision is great. Thanks Dr. Lee!
I was at Memorial North with a severe eye problem on Saturday afternoon before Easter. The ER physician called Dr. Lee's office to set up an appointment to see me as soon as possible. Dr. Lee saw me in his office on Easter Sunday 2010 to assess my condition. I found him to be professional, accurate and most gracious. I rate him as a high five!
Dr Lee was in a big hurry and didn't take the time to discuss anything about my condition. He was not someone i could trust with my glacoma condition. I did not make an appointment to go back and when i received his bill for one visit it was $458.00 my insurance will not even come close to covering that cost.

I have been looking for a small purse to hold my Kindle and also credit cards and cash without being to big. This purse fits perferctly. The first thing I did was to put my Kindle inside and it fit. Then I filled the slots and spaces and everything worked. As an added bonus the leather is so very soft I love the feel in my hand. I have been looking for a long time and am very happy with my purchase.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Joy Formidable's live show can't match studio sound
The Joy Formidable delivered a blistering set at Summerfest last July Fourth. But something's changed since that hot summer night: The Welsh alternative rock trio's studio ambitions and accomplishments have outgrown its live capabilities.
The band returned to Milwaukee Tuesday to perform at a surprisingly spacious Turner Hall Ballroom. (Perhaps the Tuesday date turned people off? Or maybe the band's played the market too many times recently?) For Tuesday's 90-minute set, it had new material to share from its bold January album, "Wolf's Law." »Read Full Article(6)

I met a woman who was a shoe salesperson. She was also 5 months pregnant. Someone had stolen her money at the market which caused her husband to leave her and chase her and her children out of their home. The pregnant woman is alone with her children now and suffers daily.

My dear Sibatu,
I am so sorry to hear this story of the woman who was robbed, and then abandoned by her husband. How is she now able to feed her five children, and care for herself with another child on the way?
Keep writing your stories and tell the world what is happening around you. It matters. By writing, you will make a difference for other women like her. God bless you.
Warmly, Sheila
Translated through Google Translator: Mon cher Sibatu,
Je suis vraiment désolé d'entendre cette histoire de la femme qui a été volé, puis abandonnée par son mari. Comment est-elle maintenant en mesure de nourrir ses cinq enfants, et les soins pour elle-même avec un autre enfant sur le chemin?
Continuez d'écrire vos histoires et dire au monde ce qui se passe autour de vous. C'est important. En écrivant, vous allez faire une différence pour les autres femmes comme elle. Que Dieu vous bénisse.
chaleureusement, Sheila
This is a very tragic situation for any woman to be in. Is there anyway this woman can be assisted like through civil society organisations. They can come in and help her with where to stay. She is being tortured psychologically and needs urgent intervention. Being pregnant and not having your spouse's support at a time like this is very terrible. I am with you and a strongly support that this woman's voice is heard.
Mrs. Anita Kiddu Muhanguzi Head of Legal and Advocacy Centre for Batwa Minorities firstname.lastname@example.com email@example.com Skype: mrs_muhanguzi
You just showed all of us that no matter where you live women struggle and can feel all alone. This is a very sad story and I can't imagine how hard it is to be treated this way. Keep writing please. Love Coach Marcie

First, let's get the "well, they did it, too" argument out of the way.
I would imagine that somewhere in the bowels of federally-funded research someone has examined the "power of suggestion" relative to over-eating and obesity. If not, then let me throw out some thoughts on the subject.

There are serious problems with Georgia's ethics commission - or rather (excuse us), the Georgia Government Transparency and Campaign Finance Commission. The eligibility of its chairman is not among them.
The perception of arthritis is often that it typically affects the elderly or injured. However, it is worth noting that in Georgia alone, there are about 9,200 children younger than 16 suffering from the painful joint swelling and stiffness that plagues those with juvenile arthritis. According to The Arthritis Foundation, more than 300,000 children have been diagnosed nationwide.

CHICAGO — When Tom Sermanni shook hands with Pia Sundhage after her last game as coach of the U.S. women's soccer team, he should have asked for a few tips.
Sermanni was hired Tuesday to replace Sundhage, who led the Americans to back-to-back Olympic gold medals and their first World Cup final in 12 years. Sermanni spent eight years as Australia's coach, reaching the quarterfinals in the last two World Cups.
"He has the knowledge, experience and vision to take on the challenge of keeping our team at the top of the world," U.S. Soccer Federation president Sunil Gulati said. "He has a tremendous passion for the game, knows the American players, understands our system and knows the process of preparing a team for a World Cup tournament."

This is kind of long. My first child was born Oct 2006. My family has a history of IC, so my Ob gave me a cerclage at 13 weeks. Pregnancy went fine, and she born happy and healthy 4 days past her due date. For baby #2, I had to change OBs, and she took the "we'll wait and see" approach. She obviously didn't take my concerns seriously, because long story short, I went into labor at 5 1/2 months as I went into her office with spotting and was dialted to 4 cm. I also had a placenta abruption when I was dialed to 10 b/c everything was hanging out. I obviously have lost all faith in my OB and am consulting with another one later next month to see if he thinks I'm too high risk to try to get pregnant again. I will be 37 in August and am so mad I didn't stay more on top of my ob about watching my cervix.
I was wondering, has anyone had a loss or extreme premature birth and then gone on to have a cerclage with subsequent pregnancies and everything go okay? If so, were you put on bedrest and how did you manage that with a toddler. My oldest is 2 1/2, so I'm wondering how that all would work. Any advice or words of encouragement would be appreciated. I'm so scared this new ob will say I'm too high risk to try to get pregnant again.

This product is excellent easy to mix and tastes great I can't understand any negative reviews of this product as if you want to make the gains you'll eat or drink anything but this genuinely tastes good.Goes Well With:Milk
Having bought Oat mix before I have found it chalky and a bit gaggy so I decided to try a protein/oat mix for a change. Mightily impressed, very smooth to drink and the taste is fantastic, it actually tastes like it should be unhealthy its that good. Goes Well With:Milk
Tastes yummy, i use a blender to mix things but it mixes great
Been taking 2 scoops with 5g creatine (mixed with water) pre workout then 2 scoops with 5g creatine (mixed with skimmed milk) post workout. Training 5 days. Seen good results from combination of these productsGoes Well With:Creatine
I have been using this product for over a year now. Didn't even got bored of the flavors. Great product with great taste. Mixes easily with 700ml water and really effective. Good job my protein. I recommend the flavors Strawberry cream, Banana and Vanilla
Great protein, cheap , tastes really nice although it is a little sweet and filling with milk, tastes best with ice cold water , mixes great and ideal for bulking as it contains a little more protein and carbs than your average protein powder. However I was a little dissapointed at how long it lasted , myprotein say that the 5kg bag should have 80 servings, this wasn't true at all for me i'm afraid. I took one serving a day and the bag was finished after 59 days.. not great. Not sure if i'll be buying from them again.Goes Well With:Milk,water
Love the protein tatses great defo recomend any1 on a low budget like me since my eye injury, but still continue to use this product. Thanks
Really good product, great balance between carbs and protein. low sugar content so doesn't taste over sweet, Mixes pretty well if you shake it enough. Good ratio of carbs and protein so perfect for what i require it for.Bought buy strawberry flavour. taste is great Overall I highly recommend.Goes Well With:milk and water
I hit a wall with my training, wasn't putting on any weight, first I just bought the instant oats and mixed that in with my protein, but it was a lot to consume at once. I bought this stuff and it is superb: would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to put on a little bit of good weight. Goes Well With:Water
Great for boosting the macro's, easy to drink, no issues!Goes Well With:Milk or water
2 scoops of chocolate smooth with Semi skimmed milk tastes great and keeps you full. Goes Well With:Semi skimmed milk
Really good product, great balance between carbs and protein. I mix it in a bowl and wisk and it comes out great, no lumps and the taste is great. I use to have ready made drinks as I could never get the lumps out but this has solved it and it is much easier in the stomach as well
Mixes great with a shaker and tastes great Goes Well With:Skimmed milk
I found this product perfect for before and after high intensity training matches my needs I regularly youse this product as it's easy to consume,nice selection of flavours would recommend this for anyone Goes Well With:Porridge
Nice balance of high protein + moderate amount of slow release carbs - suits my current training which is mix of weights + triathlon training. Tried vanilla and smooth chocolate, both pretty good although I mix the chocolate a bit weaker cos it is particularly sweet....
Great way to increase carb intake along side a whey protein after workouts. Easy to mix & easy to drink. The oats provide much healthier carbs compared to the high GI carbs coming from sugars found in other protein shakes.
Bought this for ease of use and time saving and was on offer, as ive had the instant oats and whey protein mixed together numerous times, tastes nice and working in a busy place i dont always get time to eat 'proper' food. keeps you full for a few hours and tastes lovely! especially with SS milk.
Very good tasting protein powder. The oats help to make this a great snack also. It mixes very well in a shaker and easy to drink.
Not a bad product overall have to say am just used to reflex natural whey which think is a much better product this tastes very chemically and the saturated fat per serving is ridiculous. Can't say have noticed any difference but only just started. Goes Well With:Water
I love this product, really low sugar content so doesn't taste over sweet, even the unflavoured tastes absolutely fine. Mixes pretty well if you shake it enough. Good ratio of carbs and protein so perfect for what i require it for. As for progress, i have only been using it for about 3 weeks so fingers crossed for success. IanGoes Well With:creatine monohydrate grape
Mixabillity is perfect but it is a little thicker than pure whey cause of the oats included. The strawberry is a goid choice and i have allready purchase the vanilla flavour and i can't wait to try it. It is perfect if you are away from home for hours and need protein and energy from slow release carbs. All i need in one product. And it's good choice for pre workout for having energy and aminos in your blood while you workout hard. Goes Well With:Water
Great shake. Muscle strength and loads of muscle gains
I needed a protein recovery drink that packed in more protein than my usual SIS recovery drink. This Oats and Whey does just that. I can achieve a good 80grams of protein without taking on too many calorific carbs and so far I feel less fatigued and ready to go into another hard training session the next day.
I have tried this, as I normally have oats and whey for breakfast and this was easier than mixing it myself. I have two criticisms: 1) it's a little overpriced compared to buying separate powders and 2) the unflavoured version only comes in 2.5kg. I also wish that MP would pack these in Ziploc pouches, as the current seals always come unglued from one side. Goes Well With:Milk and maple syrup
Bought strawberry flavour. Very pleasant taste and quite creamy. I have previously bought this type of product from other companies and internet sales sites over the years, which were mostly average at best, and on occasion passed through me like a slippery rocket. This product is head and shoulders above them, giving a good mix of protein and carbs, and stays in my system like it should. Goes Well With:Milk or water.
Tastes good and easy to mix. The taste is nice with both milk and water, only had it a week so can't judge on how effective it is just yet.
Great taste, all in one goodness. Gains Gains Gains :)
Excellent product, taste is decent however the mixability is slightly off. Overall I highly recommend.
Love it... Tastes really nice better mixed in an electric blender than a hand shaker!! Less bits that way... Excellent product 👍Goes Well With:Milk!
Been taking this for 2 months now and so far the product is great I have gained 3kg cannot fault. chocolate flavour is great althought You have to mix the protein a lot longer than it actually says.
Tastes excellent with water or milk. Easy to drink through out the day. Getting good gains on size.
Fab range and speedy delivery amaxing service.
Love this protien, have been buying it for a long time and never disappointed. Definitely buy in a flavour as unflavoured is not nice and forms a chalky texture. Will definitely continue to buy this product.
Total Oats and Whey was the first protein shake I'd ever tried after it being recommended by my brother. I went with Chocolate Smooth and was very impressed with the flavour; it was tasty enough that I actually prefer it to the sugary cereal i used to have for lunch. I take one a day to replace either breakfast or lunch and I find it keeps me pretty full. The vanilla flavour is ok, but not as good as chocolate, and a bit more grainy in texture. I've even accidentally ordered the unflavoured version and it's not too bad either.
my protein with oats an whey,very tasty,easy to mix,an good to the taste,good source of energy for the day,from the slow releasing oats,i have 3 protein shakes a day,an can see muscle development,very happy with shake will be buying again.
Tried this to simply get more from my shakes, worked out reasonably well, putting on mass at a steady rate, doesn't make you feel bloated, taste pretty decent and for what it is, mixes pretty well too.Goes Well With:Milk
This a great gainer for somebody who does not want to gain fat and great meal substitution, it tastes great with water or milk..Goes Well With:Milk or water.
I brought Total Oats and Whey as a way of getting in a nice load of protein, carbs and calories during my hectic schedule. Suffice to say it holds up, i feel full upon consuming and stay full for a good 3-4 hours which i need. I ordered the Strawberry Cream flavour which deserves a 4 star rating however i gave 3 because of the chalky texture. The product mixes well however leaving no clumps unlike other Oat and Whey products i have used.Goes Well With:Water, Milk
This is nice product...I took chocolate..it is sweat, but its better than unflavoured...I gained weight and muscle but my body fat index has fallen a bit...so for now this is good product.. and really fast delivery by myprotein :D
Excellent product. The taste is really good and is filling too. Brilliant as a pre - workout snack
One of the best products I've ever used, great taste, easy to mix great delivery.Goes Well With:Creatine Monohydrate, Bedtime Extreme (For night use)
Been buying this product for a while now, great price, product and MP are a outstanding company from my experience.Goes Well With:Creatine mono, water with splash of milk.
Good product at a very reasonable price, does what it says on the ton.I have brought it for providing Me with extra carbs and a bit of recover to get me through a busy day. It is quiet grainy after mixing but definitely manageable and can probably be expected with oats.
Great tasting product,gained some size within first 2 weeks!! still in progress will keep updated!!
Great product - Ideal supplement or meal replacement if you're too busy! Mixes well, tastes great (vanilla). Got to be the best value product of its kind in the UK.Goes Well With:Milk or water!
This is a really good product! Just about to finish my first 5kg bag... been using it to assist with weight gain & it has helped me gain weight quick without increasing my body fat % at all. Would definitely reccommend using this for anyone wanting to add more calories into their diet & increase their muscle mass. Will definitely be purchasing again. p.s. i bought vanilla by accident & it really does not taste good but i've tried other flavours & the rest are pretty good taste wise. Goes Well With:Best with milk for me... water made it taste awful but i'm fussy so may be ok for the rest
taste is quite good compared to other shakes ive used, mixability is okay but has to be shaken a lot more than normal whey. it used to have creatine in it but mp have taken it out! will continue to use until mp but the price up as they always do!!! sort it out mp
Taste ok. Will try another flavour next time though. Excellent service.
Great product! This is the one that iv made the most gains with. For any other ectomorphs around who take ages to gain weight, this is what you need. Mixability is fine, just give it a good shake. Taste is good too. Happy gains. Goes Well With:Water.
As per title really - I found the vanilla a great post ride breakfast. But the choc smooth is painfully sweet and I drinkable for me. I say I have a fairly sweet tooth but can't cope with it!

Skip to comments.One Person Attends Obamacare Event
Posted on 08/05/2013 7:56:03 AM PDT by Kaslin
One. Thats how many people showed up for a pro-Obamacare event in Centerville, Virginia. And lets face it: People didnt miss the event because they were working. The ambivalence toward the implementation of Obamacare is evidenced throughout the nation, as the Presidents left over campaigning apparatus Organizing for Action held a number of unattended Obamacare events this weekend. The event, reported by Politico, illustrated the growing displeasure with the Presidents signature piece of legislation.
When Congress returns from its recess in early September, there is bound to be extensive efforts to defund, postpone, or repeal the Presidents clumsy attempt at nationalized health care. Fearing a repeat of the Tea Party activity that gave Republicans the House in 2010, Democrats are scrambling to garner support for the legislation as some of the most sweeping initiatives are set to take place by 2014.
According to Politico, the event was one of thousands around the country to rally support for the government takeover of one-sixth of the US economy. Apparently a few liberally inclined community members showed up for the event, but left before things really kicked off. In the end, one volunteer and the event organizer, were left manning phones. . . An activity that proved sooooooo exiting, even the event organizer left after twenty short minutes.
Twenty-three year old Toora Arsala, a student at Northern Virginia Community College, organized the event. He explained that the law was of great importance to him, because he has a variety of ailments and has currently relied on Medicaid for coverage. Its nice to know that hes willing to put millions of full time workers onto part time schedules, and increase individual premiums by as much as 140% so he can have the government run another program to take care of him in the same way it is already doing.
The one volunteer said she was passionate about the implementation of Obamacare, because she was forced to take a part time job in order to care for her aging mother, and ill son. Lucky for her, Obamacare has created a wealth of part time jobs.
The event, which seems to have illustrated the publics ambivalence toward Obamas legacy-inspiring piece of legislation, was well, it was a failure. Of course this should be nothing new for Democrats. Most of us dislike the Post office, the Social Security office, the Department of Motor Vehicles, and the Internal Revenue Service. Why would an event dedicated to celebrating government involvement in healthcare rally any more support than any other bureaucratically weighted agency?
Coincidently, the event flopped on the same day that our Campaigner in Chief was celebrating his birthday. Happy Birthday Mr. President. Your healthcare reform is still a failure.
Cue Nelson Muntz!
How will the AP report this??
"Dozens of Committed Demonstrators"?
"Turnout lower than expected, but still a worthwhile effort..."?
Train wreck !
Eventually all the people on the Titanic knew thay had picked the wrong ship. It still sunk.
Well, so much for all the excitement out there in "middle America" as Obamacare gets up and running. (sarcasm)
Nancy Pelosi said we had to pass the bill to know what was in it. But she also said that people like Obamacare as they learn more about it.
Would love to see some polling on this. I know polls indicate majorities of Americans are not happy with Obamacare. But would love to see specifics, such as, Obama said that if you like your health plan you could keep it. This is turning out not to be true. Is the public upset with their president that he blatantly lied to them just to get this bill passed???
And what about changes such as businesses cutting workers hours, or keeping employment below the 50 employee mark, or canceling insurance altogether? I wonder what the public thinks about these reactions to Obamacare? What about Howard Dean, a good Democrat, admitting that there are something akin to death panels in Obamacare?
Ambivalence toward Obamacare? This is approaching outright revulsion. Perhaps one of the most misnamed pieces of midnight legislation ever passed out of any session of Congress, the "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010" may only claim that the part about "2010" is probably the least untruthful statement in the title.
The decision to make the IRS the managing and collection agency for administering this atrocity only put the frosting on the cake (and most folks' backsides, as well).
Well.. I'll bet THAT was one exciting....zzzzzzzzzzzz.... party...zzzzzzzzzzzz..........
Hell, if Centerville were closer, I would've gone just for the food and beer, and bolted out the door when the time came to give praise and worship to Da One.
This creeps me out to no end. I mean, really? what's next, setting fire to the
Reichstag WH?
We could have told you so, Maine had Dirigo...now fermenting in the crapper.
I hope for their sake it was an open bar.
"Obamas legacy-inspiring piece of legislation"
yeah, it's a piece of something alright but legacy-inspiring it ain't.
yes, but if you count the local and national media, including reporters, film crews and producers, several hundred showed up.
Picture of packed house as shown by the liberal media:
So...playing "Spot The Liberal Democrat" at that particular event was fairly easy, I take it...
Obama said that if you like your health plan you could keep it.So then why should I get excited about Obamacare?
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Just what is a "Toora Arsala?" Just what rock did he crawl out from under? We would have been smart to have picked our own cotton.
Sounds foreign to me
What better way to show your displeasure and contempt than to not voluntarily show up and sign on to this horrible program. Young people, especially, will stay away in droves.
People usually look out for their own best interests, and they know that this piece of legislation isn't in their own best interests.
Did he lie, though? I got the impression that he had no clue what was in it. Pelosi might have had a clue, but she likely didn't really know either.
Oh, please. It isn't that so few are showing up, it's that so many are showing up disguised as folding chairs.
The NappyOne
Fear, loathing and visceral hatred is more like it! Followed by white hot rage!

after you get done with this mod, you'll be able to swear like a sailor! once this thing starts working, it will be so tempting to just rally off a couple hundred swears. well, please don't. I mean. I know me and a friend did, but... at that time we were the only ones that could see it! xD imagine if everyone had these filters. every 5th word would be a NON-swear! So please try to refrain from swearing. or if you absolutely must swear, keep the swearing out of the squares.
how it works:
the filter blocks in-coming and out-going swears. so if you have the filter, and no one else does, you will only be able to see your own swears. they won't see your swears though. but if 2 people have the same filter, they will be able to see the words just fine. also, I've noticed the guild chat filter doesn't seem to block words as often, which is nice.
shall we begin?
step 1: go to your locales folder.
step 2: go to your english.zip folder.
step 3: copy the invalid strings file and paste it somewhere outside the english.zip folder. you'll need to enter the password if you want to get the file out without corrupting it.
step 4: open up your invalidstrings.xml file so you can edit it. use either notepad or frontpage.
step 5: where it says forbidden strings value= "" delete everything within the quotes.
step 6: copy the edited invalidstrings.xml file back into your english.zip folder.
Finished! go ahead and try it out!

There are those who call the NBA All-Star Game a mere popularity contest. I'm not a fan of such thinking, as I believe that stardom should be merit-based. May the best guys get the biggest accolades.
In that spirit, I'm choosing an All-NBA roster for the season thus far. Obviously, a lot can change between now and the playoffs, but it's not too early to draw conclusions about who has done well to this point.
The season may be young, but so much has happened already. Certain teams have been effectively eliminated from playoff contention, and others have been propelled into playoff- or title-contender status. There's a decent chance that these All-NBA selections will look a lot like the spring product.

Egypt Draft Budget Foresees Reducing Deficit to 7.9% of GDP
Egypt's draft budget for the fiscal year that starts in July forecasts reducing the budget deficit to 7.9 percent of gross domestic product, Finance Minister Momtaz el-Saieed said, as the country seeks an International Monetary Fund loan.
The draft foresees spending of 537.7 billion Egyptian pounds ($89 billion) and revenue of 392.4 billion pounds, el-Saieed told reporters in Cairo today. Planning and International Cooperation Minister Fayza Aboulnaga told reporters today that the country targets a growth rate of 4 to 4.5 percent for the 2012/2013 fiscal year. She said the Cabinet will review the draft budget on May 16.
The economy expanded 0.4 percent in the three months through Dec. 31, compared with growth of 0.2 percent in the previous quarter and 5.6 percent a year earlier, according to official figures. Talks with the IMF for a $3.2 billion loan have yet to conclude amid wrangling between the interim government and Islamist-dominated parliament. Egypt requested the loan in January, as part of efforts to boost a struggling economy after last year's uprising.
El-Saieed said the budget deficit target for next fiscal year was less than the 8.6 percent of GDP targeted in this fiscal year's budget.
The draft budget cuts fuel subsidies by 25.5 billion pounds compared with the 2011/2012 budget to 70 billion pounds, el-Saieed said. It boosts food subsidies by 7.7 billion pounds to 26.6 billion pounds, he said.
After the draft budget is reviewed by Cabinet, it will be submitted to the head of the ruling military council to be referred to parliament, the state-run Middle East News Agency reported today.
The IMF has requested broad political support for a loan-related economic plan to ensure it is implemented beyond the transitional period. The military council says it will transfer power to civilians by the end of June.
The government's proposed loan-tied measures include reducing the budget deficit through speeding up the implementation of a value-added tax and "rationing" fuel subsidies without harming low-income people, according to a statement by parliament's economic committee last month.

39 new trees planted in downtown Erie
Erie got a bit greener on Thursday.
A total of 39 trees were planted in two spots in the city on Thursday morning through a joint effort of the Erie Downtown Partnership and the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy.
About 15 volunteers showed up to plant 10 different species of trees on West Fifth Street between Sassafras and Myrtle streets and near the intersection of East 13th and Holland streets.
Mark Hockley, forester for the conservancy, said the new trees are part of a push to grow Erie's "urban forest."
A total of 300 trees will be planted around Erie, thanks to an anonymous donation. The first 40 were planted in late 2013, and 50 more were planted in April, Hockley said.
"There are so many benefits to planting trees in a community," Hockley said. "They produce oxygen, reduce the heat island effect (which increases temperatures in urban areas) and help filter stormwater."
Hockley said his group chose types of trees that aren't commonly seen in Erie, including flowering cherry, red maple and white oak.
Hockley said his group expects to be back at some point between October and December to plant even more trees.
John Buchna, executive director of the Erie Downtown Partnership, said his organization will maintain the trees for their first two years. He said only a handful of the new trees will replace dead or dying ones.
"This an all-around wonderful opportunity for the city," Buchna said.
Buchna said the effort to plant trees in Erie is also helpful to the city because organizers created a database of tree locations that officials can use to plan in the future.

HBO (Sun., Sept. 7, 9:30 p.m. ET)
I like the wry title of this TV movie, but it suffers when the focus shifts away from the star. Set mostly in 1914, the script by Larry Gelbart (M*A*S*H) concerns a deal between movie pioneer D.W. Griffith's company and Mexican rebel Pancho Villa (Antonio Banderas), who lets the gringos film his army in real combat in return for $25,000 in gold. Banderas is a charismatic Villa, and Gelbart puts over a few witty points about Hollywoodized history. Unfortunately the film dwells too much on Frank Thayer (Eion Bailey), the production assistant assigned to keep the rebel cooperating. Young Thayer hasn't a fraction of Villa's star quality.
BOTTOM LINE: Interesting misfire

JERUSALEM, Israel - The Israeli government's Counter-Terrorism Bureau issued an updated travel advisory for the remainder of the summer and the upcoming Jewish fall holidays.
Travel to Muslim countries, including Jordan, Egypt, Morocco and Kenya should be avoided.
The warning specifed avoiding the resorts in the Egyptian Sinai, a favorite destination for vacationing families.
Israeli businessmen traveling abroad were advised to exercise caution with contacts from Arab or Muslim countries, especially against kidnapping attempts.
Included among countries in which a "very serious concrete threat" exists are Iran, Iraq, Sudan, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen and Afghanistan.
Chechnya, Kashmir, Mindanao Islands, the Philippines, Algiers, Djibouti, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia and Pakistan also pose a "serious concrete threat."
"Hezbollah continues to accuse Israel of the death of [senior commander] Imad Mughniyeh, which increases threats of terror made by Hezbollah toward Israeli targets abroad," the warning read.
Mughniyeh was killed by a car bomb in February 2008 in Damascus.

The Republican presidential candidate known for his hard-line stance on illegal immigration wants international students to be able to stay in the U.S. to work after graduation.
At conference on overseas admissions, discussions focus on whether widespread reports about application fraud are leaving those who are honest feeling they have to cheat.
Citing a need to expand support services, some public universities are charging differentiated tuition rates or hiking fees for international undergraduate students. But why are many of them mixing the funds with their general budgets?
The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign enrolled 37 undergraduates from China in 2000. Now it has close to 3,000. What are the implications of such a shift?
As international student enrollments have skyrocketed, U.S. universities are just starting to sort out the implications for the classroom. Do professors need to adjust grading expectations for written assignments?
Report shows 8.1 percent increase in international student enrollment at U.S. universities and 2.1 percent growth in the number of Americans studying abroad.
In new research being released at international education conference, foreign students identify financial issues as their main sources of dissatisfaction.
The continuing growth of pathway programs for international students reflects trends toward for-profit/nonprofit partnerships and raises questions about readiness and rigor.
So you have X number of international students on your campus. So what?

The work of three artists working in three different media exemplify the benefits of not always knowing at the beginning where their inspiration will take them - in a show opening August 27th at the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts.
Susan Hope, who works and paints with fused glass says, "Possibilities became the name of our show when we all realized we had no idea what direction our inspiration would take us, individually or collectively, and that the creative possibilities are endless." Hope works primarily with glass, though she says her greatest joy is illustrating and capturing moments in time in a drawing or painting. "So I have combined the two," Hope says. "Glass, though it seems static, is a fluid medium to work with. Producing deep cast glass pieces by layering in drawings creates a multidimensional illusion. Watching the mood and aura of the glass landscape change as the light changes throughout the day is like watching a movie. It's just magical." Hope says her work always gravitates toward landscape, no matter where she begins. "A sunset, a stream, the moon: Sometimes I feel almost desperate to capture the moment," she says. "It will change and never be the same, or I will forget. I don't want to forget, and I don't want my children to forget that the world is full of beauty."
In thinking about the show's title, painter Michele Yellin says she realized that the way she paints is truly about possibilities. "First, I texture the canvas and then add color in a random way, or I will paint some text that I find interesting or inspirational,"
Metal sculptor Renee Leverty says the show's theme, for her, has to do with being open, not knowing, and trusting the process. "I like telling stories through the sculptural form," Leverty says. "My over-arching theme is one of connections. In my work, I like to show how we are connected to each other, to nature, to a greater community, and ultimately, to ourselves." Leverty works mostly from steel or brass. "I use welding, or cast mold-making to create my sculptures,"
An opening reception for Possibilities will be held at the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts on Friday, August 31st from 6-9 p.m. The Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is located in the Mercantile Building at 121 North Churton Street, in Hillsborough, NC.
