Small businesses: silent sufferers in the economic crisis
"...There is still no date for the hearing, although I have been inquiring monthly in the last 8 months. I do not know anything about my case, I do not get any information. There are many victims in the same situation, all of them feel hopeless. Nobody believes that it is possible to reach a fair verdict. Victims are spending a lot of money on lawyers without results. This process has been going on since September 2007 and so far nothing has happened. I am starving and sometimes I cannot even buy my diabetes medicines and the person who caused this is enjoying his life."
The above paragraph is taken from a letter, written by a 53-year old woman. She had been working as a pharmacist entrepreneur until she went bankrupt because of an unpaid order.

Her present situation is hopeless. Her family has collapsed and she is living in rented lodgings. She attempted suicide several times, and has been treated for a nervous breakdown.
There have been documented many cases where stress caused by such circumstances has resulted in stroke, cardiac infarction or suicide. These entrepreneurs, with 15-20 years of experience, did not go bankrupt because they mismanaged their enterprise or had misjudged the risk of the business.
It is due to unpaid bills. Today many micro- and small entrepreneur families live in fear that because of an unpaid invoice they can go bankrupt anytime. And such bankruptcy can result in the loss of their private assets which have been accumulated with several years of hard work.
The business environment for small businesses has become intolerable because of so-called "chain indebtedness".
This means that the small businesses hired by large "project companies", often ones which have won EU-financed state projects simply do not get paid before work is done. So they have to take out credit with the bank to pay for materials and wages.
In order to issue the credit – which is very often a so-called "currency-based" credit - the bank puts a mortgage on their homes or other assets. If the small businesses do not get paid at all, they will lose everything.
In addition, this "currency-based credit" has nothing to do with any currency. The bank lends Hungarian money, but calculates interest rates and all bank costs according to the actual exchange rate of the Hungarian Forint to the given currency.
As the Hungarian currency has plummeted in value over the last two years, businesses have to pay back up to three times more than what they originally borrowed. Many small businesses have gone under because of this.
Many business owners become socially vulnerable, although as entrepreneurs they were able to support their family and employ five to ten people.
The consequences of a bankruptcy – due to no fault of their own - can lead to serious health problems. The chain of generations is broken. The younger generation should now be taking over the business from their parents – but seeing the problems, they are no longer interested in doing so.
There is no sanction for not paying invoices, even if the victim has to bear further losses while the dishonest actors enjoy their gains.
The task of small businesses is not only to produce a significant part of the domestic product, and be employers, they have to ensure proper living conditions for themselves as well.
They also have to be able to develop their business. If the micro- and small enterprises involved in production and employment go bankrupt while the enterprises of dishonest customers flourish, the chances for sound economic growth and job creation deteriorate. Meanwhile business ethics and the societal cohesion are damaged.
This raises important questions. Can it be a general practice in the EU that while businesses do not have the right to receive the compensation for the work performed, they are obliged to pay all the taxes including VAT, even if as a consequence they lose everything?
The Hungarian government has slowly started realizing the scale of this problem. But with a high unemployment rate and an economy recession, action needs to be taken quickly.
The writer is an economist from Hungary.

Four achiral Cu(II)-coordinated Schiff bases complexes containing aromatic structures were synthesized and their supramolecular assemblies at the air/water interface were investigated. All the compounds could be spread on water surface although they have no alkyl chains. The Schiff base complex molecules with naphthyl groups tended to form J-aggregate in the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films transferred from water surface. By investigation of atomic force microscopy, a multilayer film or three-dimensional structures were observed. It was interesting to note that the LB films of achiral compound Cu-NA with naphthyl segment and without methyl groups transferred from water surface showed chirality. The supramolecular chirality in the present LB films was suggested to be due to a cooperative stereoregular π-π stacking of the functional groups in a helical sense. This research work provides a helpful clue for regulating the nanostructures and supramolecular chiral assembly in organized films.

Having problems with your HP Pavilion dv2000t Notebook ?
HP dv9830us intermitently working
\015 I have a 1 year old hp pavillion dv2533tx notebook which is just out of warrenty and the screen has now decided not to work anymore, ive plugged it into an external monitor and everything is working fine it just the screeen won't turn on and i don't know what to do I have an HP Pavilion DV9830us 18 days out of it's one year warranty, and am experiencing the same problems. I've read that it may be due to overheating, or an old driver. I've updated the driver, and can get the laptop display to come on once in awhile after I've taken out the battery, let the laptop sit for some time, and have pressed/held the power key (battery out) for 10 seconds. After this, I replace the battery and try to boot back up. It's hit or miss, and very frustrating! \015\012\015\012 This started happening out of the blue, and not after any hardware issues. Can anyone out there help. I don't think I'll ever buy another HP if I have to pay to get this thing fixed.\015

Walls And Fences - Poem by Mien Bless
Walls and fences
All around
Creating boundaries
Both inside and out
Every word spoken
Just adds on
Building this wall
That cannot be undone
Pause and reflect
On the cost one bears
To put this wall up
That isn't even there
Its about time
That we realize
These walls and fences
Are just malice
Not far behind
Lived on the plains
Where walls and fences
Were nowhere to be seen
Oh what I would give
To go back to them days
Where soul, heart and body
Were all one and at peace...

Four men, three from Clinton and one from Davenport, are facing assault charges after police say they beat a Bettendorf grocery store manager Tuesday.
Tiron Jabari Gwynn, 24, of 1215 Arlington Ave., Apt. 3, Davenport, and Clinton residents Demonta Weslee Francis, 18; Saul DeVaughn Jackson, 21, and Corwin Jacobs Williams, 18, each are charged with one count of assault causing injury.
The charge is a serious misdemeanor under Iowa law that carries a sentence of up to one year in the county jail.
According to the criminal complaint filed by Bettendorf Police officer Shawn Claussen,the incident occurred at 12:55 p.m. when the victim, a manager at the Hy-Vee grocery store at 2900 Devils Glen Road, told the men to leave the store's property after they became involved in an argument in the parking lot and were getting ready to fight.
The men then assaulted the manager, punching and kicking him and knocking him to the ground. The beating caused a laceration to the victim's right cheek, a laceration on the left side of his scalp, and a laceration behind his left ear, according to Claussen's report.
The men fled the scene in a 2001 Chevrolet Impala. They were located later by Davenport police after they were involved in an altercation outside of 1704 Davenport Ave.
Gwynn, Francis and Jackson bonded out of the Scott County Jail. Williams remained in jail on $100 cash bond Tuesday night.

Yes, there is a problem with svnversion in subversion 1.1.x and earlier that causes an additional carriage return to be appended to directories that are reported as 'exported', even when run with the - n option. The property ${changenumber} which contains the version reported by subversion then contains an additional carriage return, which in turn breaks the manifest file format by setting the top- level Sealed attribute apart from the rest of the top-level attributes as you noted. I checked in a fix to the trunk so that Gump could continue to run. It's a rather simple patch, which you could apply to the build.xml from the source distribution, attached to the end of this mail. This problem has been fixed in Subversion 1.2.0 and above. Upgrading to the latest subversion will also remedy the problem. For this reason, I would consider it a non-showstopper for holding up the 10.1.2.1 release, but I will merge the fix over to the 10.1 branch for future releases. andrew Index: build.xml =================================================================== --- build.xml (revision 330289) +++ build.xml (revision 330290) @@ -700,9 +700,13 @@ <property name="derby.jar.topdir" value="${basedir}/jars"/> <mkdir dir="${derby.jar.dir}"/> <mkdir dir="${derby.jar.dir}/lists"/> - <loadfile srcFile="${basedir}/changenumber.properties" + <loadfile srcFile="${basedir}/changenumber.properties" failonerror="false" - property="changenumber"/> + property="changenumber"> + <filterchain> + <striplinebreaks/> + </filterchain> + </loadfile> <condition property="changenumber" value="???"> <not> <isset property="changenumber"/>

A worker with the Tongzhou Funeral House of Beijing told Xinhua that private mortuaries and illegal hearses take the largest share of the industry's profits. Buy generic Niravam, Mortuaries affiliated with hospitals can provide a variety of services, he said.

X-Rocker II Gaming Chair
It won't really matter because I plan on likely getting a Pulse Elite headset when it's compatible with the PS4, but I'm curious... is the chair compatible with the PS4? It looks like the chair comes with RCA cords, but I don't know how they'd manage with the PS4.
Reviews from me -- an honest reviewer who isn't paid off.
Re: X-Rocker II Gaming Chair[ Edited ]
Only if you run your PS4 through a receiver with analog outputs.
I have two of those, they are horrible. I regret my purchase daily. Hmm, actually I have the X-Rocker PROs.
If you weigh 150lbs or less and are 5'6 or under, they may be fine for you for a while but the build quality ends at cool looking and gets MUCH worse from there as they are built for kids. The fundamental construction is flawed with hard edged wood placed in just the right places to torture you after the cheap foam compresses permanantly.
They do sound pretty good, wired. Wireless was worthless unless you like a bunch of buzzing.
The truth will set you free... But it may sting a bit...
Re: X-Rocker II Gaming Chair[ Edited ]
About what I'd expect for a cheap $100 gaming chair. Not really buying them for the sound. I wanted to just buy another AK Racer, but they don't make them anymore. No idea why not. I had mine for 8 years until a few weeks ago when one of the lock mechanisms **bleep**ed up -- now it's in an awkward position.
BTW I'm 5'8'' and 155-160 pounds, so I'm not worried about that. If it's THAT uncomfortable, I'll just sit on a pillow on it or something.
^ That's the chair I did have. Was $50. Comfortable, durable, reasonably priced.

RALLY co-driver Gareth Roberts has been killed in a shocking crash like the
one that nearly claimed the life of Formula One star Robert Kubica.
Welshman Roberts, 24, was navigating for Irish ace Craig Breen in the Targa
Florio rally in Sicily.
A guardrail pierced 22-year-old Breen's Peugeot when he crashed and Roberts
was fatally injured.
The accident was an eerie carbon copy of Kubica's early last year, when the
Pole suffered serious injuries to his limbs and has yet to return to racing.
Paramedics rushed to the scene of Breen's crash, which happened on the first
stage of the second day, but were unable to save Roberts.
The event, a round of the Intercontinental Rally Challenge, was immediately
cancelled as a mark of respect.
At the time the lead was being fought out by Andreas Mikkelsen, driver for The
Sun's motorsport partners Skoda UK, and factory Skoda ace Jan Kopecky.
A close friend of Roberts said: "This is devastating. Gareth was a lovely guy,
totally dedicated to the sport and one of Britain's top up-and-coming
"It is a huge blow to his family and the small Welsh village where he lives.
Everyone there knew him as Jaffa, though I'm not sure why."

Canon also uses the low battery Icon as a generic error code. Try taking the lens off the camera. If this fixes the problem the lens needs a repair (most likely the aperture unit). If not then the camera needs the repair (either the shutter or dc-dc converter circuit).

FDA Approves Northera to Treat Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension »
"The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today approved Northera capsules (droxidopa) for the treatment of neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (NOH). NOH is a rare, chronic and often debilitating drop in blood pressure upon standing that is associate"...
Read the FDA Approves Northera to Treat Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension article »
For blood pressure control in certain acute hypotensive states (e.g., pheochromocytomectomy, sympathectomy, poliomyelitis, spinal anesthesia, myocardial infarction, septicemia, blood transfusion, and drug reactions).
As an adjunct in the treatment of cardiac arrest and profound hypotension.
Norepinephrine Bitartrate Injection is a concentrated, potent drug which must be diluted in dextrose containing solutions prior to infusion. An infusion of LEVOPHED should be given into a large vein (see PRECAUTIONS).
Restoration Of Blood Pressure In Acute Hypotensive States
Blood volume depletion should always be corrected as fully as possible before any vasopressor is administered. When, as an emergency measure, intraaortic pressures must be maintained to prevent cerebral or coronary artery ischemia, LEVOPHED can be administered before and concurrently with blood volume replacement.
LEVOPHED should be diluted in 5 percent dextrose injection or 5 percent dextrose and sodium chloride injections. These dextrose containing fluids are protection against significant loss of potency due to oxidation. Administration in saline solution alone is not recommended. Whole blood or plasma, if indicated to increase blood volume, should be administered separately (for example, by use of a Y-tube and individual containers if given simultaneously).
Average Dosage
Add a 4 mL ampul (4 mg) of LEVOPHED to 1,000 mL of a 5 percent dextrose containing solution. Each mL of this dilution contains 4 mcg of the base of LEVOPHED. Give this solution by intravenous infusion. Insert a plastic intravenous catheter through a suitable bore needle well advanced centrally into the vein and securely fixed with adhesive tape, avoiding, if possible, a catheter tie-in technique as this promotes stasis. An IV drip chamber or other suitable metering device is essential to permit an accurate estimation of the rate of flow in drops per minute. After observing the response to an initial dose of 2 mL to 3 mL (from 8 mcg to 12 mcg of base) per minute, adjust the rate of flow to establish and maintain a low normal blood pressure (usually 80 mm Hg to 100 mm Hg systolic) sufficient to maintain the circulation to vital organs. In previously hypertensive patients, it is recommended that the blood pressure should be raised no higher than 40 mm Hg below the preexisting systolic pressure. The average maintenance dose ranges from 0.5 mL to 1 mL per minute (from 2 mcg to 4 mcg of base).
High Dosage
Great individual variation occurs in the dose required to attain and maintain an adequate blood pressure. In all cases, dosage of LEVOPHED should be titrated according to the response of the patient. Occasionally much larger or even enormous daily doses (as high as 68 mg base or 17 ampuls) may be necessary if the patient remains hypotensive, but occult blood volume depletion should always be suspected and corrected when present. Central venous pressure monitoring is usually helpful in detecting and treating this situation.
Fluid Intake
The degree of dilution depends on clinical fluid volume requirements. If large volumes of fluid (dextrose) are needed at a flow rate that would involve an excessive dose of the pressor agent per unit of time, a solution more dilute than 4 mcg per mL should be used. On the other hand, when large volumes of fluid are clinically undesirable, a concentration greater than 4 mcg per mL may be necessary.
Duration Of Therapy
The infusion should be continued until adequate blood pressure and tissue perfusion are maintained without therapy. Infusions of LEVOPHED should be reduced gradually, avoiding abrupt withdrawal. In some of the reported cases of vascular collapse due to acute myocardial infarction, treatment was required for up to six days.
Adjunctive Treatment In Cardiac Arrest
Infusions of LEVOPHED are usually administered intravenously during cardiac resuscitation to restore and maintain an adequate blood pressure after an effective heartbeat and ventilation have been established by other means. [LEVOPHED's powerful beta-adrenergic stimulating action is also thought to increase the strength and effectiveness of systolic contractions once they occur.]
Average Dosage
To maintain systemic blood pressure during the management of cardiac arrest, LEVOPHED is used in the same manner as described under Restoration of Blood Pressure in Acute Hypotensive States.
Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to use, whenever solution and container permit.

I ordered some plastic book covers for my husband for Xmas. He collects 1st editions, and wanted them to protect his investments.
Newport Vintage Books billed me through Paypal, and they took their money out of my account back on 12/11/10/. I am still waiting for my order, and it is 1/15/11.
I emailed the company after Xmas, and received a long sob story about how the representative hurt his leg, and couldn't mail packages. Give me a large break! What prevented him from refunding my money electronically?
I have no sympathy, since I have a knee injury, and wouldn't dream of ripping someone off.
I think theseguys are scam artists; don't order from them! They have my money, and I have nothing to show for it. :>(

Perfectly Imperfect
This is a young love poem. Typical puppy love that resulted in a heartbreak for me and It only made me stronger.
Remember that time?
When we swore we were perfect
Ironically in love with each other's imperfections
Barely leaving any space between us to take in the recollections.
Couldn't even sit on opposite sides of the room without constant glances from the corners of our eyes
A chuckle every time we caught each other by surprise
Remember that time?
You were too scared to ask my name
But it was me who was craving for love
It was me who was really in pain.
You just wanted someone to feel it like you felt it
You just wanted someone to tell you you're not alone
You just wanted someone to listen without embarrassing yourself in front of your boys
You wanted someone to tell you young love was more than just this metaphorical rough draft full of typos and crossed out lines in red pen
And I was there
Every day in the midst of leather boots and itchy turtlenecks
Every day I held my breath to block out the stench of the tight leather leggings on too thick girls and oversized tee shirts on too buff guys
Just to see you
And you came everyday
Just to see me
So I could intertwine my fingers in your thick curly hair and feel your head rest on my shoulder because your physical body fought the urge of fatigue
And I didn't mind
Just to see that smile that sent my heart racing in a 5K down a 15 yard hallway
Towards our departure
But we were purposely late
And every night I would stay up with my head on my books
No, not in
ON my books for support when my arm got tired on the phone
And every night you tiptoed with your worn out chucks into my dreams with an insidious plan to steal my heart and leave
And I let you
I finally let you
And I scribbled your name a million times in the same page of my diary
Hoping to erase from my memory the pathetic attempt for someone to remember me
Scratching out the stupid love letters to boys who never noticed me
Who were written over and over again hoping if I used words like "what's up?" instead of "how are you" maybe they would think more of me
Past my short hair and my tight lips
Past the skinny waist and the small hips
I'm so foolish
And I thought this was my time to feel like young love was more than just an overdramatic chic flick movie scene that I dragged you into because I helped you get your job
You owed me one
And I thought you would take off your mask of regret that fit your skin tone perfectly and we could burn away the past together with your lighter on the train tracks because we simply didn't care
I didn't care
You had my heart now
And you held on so tight
But your sweater feels like a strait jacket now because I want to take it off but I can't take it off
I want to let this go
But I can't let it go
I'm sorry my palms got sweaty when you reached for my hand to show the world what I meant to you
I'm sorry you could hear the not so soft sound of my heart beat when we our lips attached out of pure habit
I'm sorry if this was all a game to you
And I'm just the buzz kill who has to play by the rules
You were my smile
Now I have to force it so my teachers don't call the police on mom and dad
You were my heart
But now it's cloaked my lungs in deep scarlet and I can't breathe
It's penetrated so deep and with every step I hear a squishing sound like it's dripped to the floor and I'm walking in my own shame
You were my hope
That time could heal the pain even though scars never fade but who cares?
You were my dream
And now you're just a beautiful nightmare
Coming to steal my heart
Creeping into the night but you know I'm a light sleeper
You're coming to take it all back like you never left
You're coming to woo me half-asleep because she doesn't listen
She doesn't understand like I understand
She's never felt what we've felt
She's never seen what we've seen
She'll never love you like I love you
You're coming back to steal my heart
But I won't let you.

Scientists unravel the quantum properties of graphene

|The Electron is a Wave
|"When electrical current flows through graphene, we should not imagine the electrons as little balls rolling through the material", says Florian Libisch from TU Wien (Vienna), who led the theoretical part of the research project. The electrons swash through the graphene as a long wave front, the wavelength can be a hundred times larger than the space between two adjacent carbon atoms. "The electron is not confined to one particular carbon atom, in some sense it is located everywhere at the same time", says Libisch.
|The team studied the behaviour of electrons squeezing through a narrow constriction in a graphene sheet. "The wider the constriction, the larger the electron flux - but as it turns out, the relationship between the width of the constriction, the energy of the electrons and the electric current is quite complex", says Florian Libisch. "When we make the constriction wider, the electric current does not increase gradually, it jumps at certain points. This is a clear indication of quantum effects."
|If the wavelength of the electron is so large that it does not fit through the constriction, the electron flux is very low. "When the energy of the electron is increased, its wavelength decreases", explains Libisch. "At some point, one wavelength fits through the constriction, then two wavelengths, then three - this way the electron flux increases in characteristic steps." The electric current is not a continuous quantity, it is quantized.
|Theory and Experiment
|This effect can also be observed in other materials. Detecting it in graphene was much more difficult, because its complex electronic properties lead to a multitude of additional effects, interfering with each other. The experiments were performed at the group of Christoph Stampfer at the RWTH Aachen (Germany), theoretical calculations and computer simulations were performed in Vienna by Larisa Chizhova and Florian Libisch at the group of Joachim Burgdörfer.
|For the experiments, the graphene sheets hat to be etched into shape with nanometre precision. "Protecting the graphene layer by sandwiching it between atomic layers of hexagonal boron nitride is critical for demonstrating the quantized nature of current in graphene" explains Christoph Stampfer. Current through the devices is then measured at extremely low temperatures. "We use liquid helium to cool our samples, otherwise the fragile quantum effects are washed out by thermal fluctuations" says Stampfer. Simulating the experiment poses just as much of a challenge. "A freely moving electron in the graphene sheet can occupy as many quantum states as there are carbon atoms", says Florian Libisch, "more than ten million, in our case." This makes the calculations extremely demanding. An electron in a hydrogen atom can be described using just a few quantum states. The team at TU Wien (Vienna) developed a large scale computer simulation and calculated the behaviour of the electrons in graphene on the Vienna Scientific Cluster VSC, using hundreds of processor cores in parallel.
|Edge States
|As it turns out, the edge of the graphene sheet plays a crucial role. "As the atoms are arranged in a hexagonal pattern, the edge can never be a completely straight line. On an atomic scale, the edge is always jagged", says Florian Libisch. In these regions, the electrons can occupy special edge states, which have an important influence on the electronic properties of the material. "Only with large scale computer simulations using the most powerful scientific computer clusters available today, we can find out how these edge states affect the electrical current", says Libisch. "The excellent agreement between the experimental results and our theoretical calculations shows that we have been very successful."
|The discovery of graphene opened the door to a new research area: ultrathin materials which only consist of very few atomic layers are attracting a lot of attention. Especially the combination of graphene and other materials - such as boron nitride, as in this case - is expected to yield interesting results. "One thing is for sure: whoever wants to understand tomorrow's electronics has to know a lot about quantum physics", says Florian Libisch.

tic thinks med
tic Medizintechnik was founded in the year 1999 as a start-up company and quickly grew to a middle-sized business, which is very successful today world-wide as a developer, manufacturer and supplier of electrotherapy, biofeedback and diagnosis systems. The first overseas branch was established in Austria in 2006, and more are being planned.
In order to permanently meet the requirements of the technical developments we have improved our products over the years and carefully extended our portfolio. Today it is sub-divided into the following subject areas: functional diagnostics, incontinence therapy, rehabilitation and impotence therapy. In specialist circles, such as clinics, practices, therapy and rehabilitation centres as well as in the homecare sector our products are being used successfully.
Not to be forgotten is our first consumer brand. The SaneoLINE includes three consumer-friendly electrostimulation machines; SaneoTENS pain relief, SaneoVITAL massage and SaneoSPORT muscle training, which are specially designed for the requirements of the different target groups.
The quality advantage which we offer is decisive. Our quality management system, established according to DIN EN ISO 13485, guarantees our clients a perfect product every time.
It is our standard, always to be one touch better than the competition, never to stand still and thereby to permanently maintain a quality advantage. Constant thinking along the same lines as the medical professional, the cost-bearer and in particular the patient is our promise to our clients.
During the development of our electromedical home therapy systems, for the treatment of incontinence, pain or motor function problems, what was of most importance to us was: concentration on the patient! Our products are easy to understand and use, simplifying the daily tasks of the patient as far as possible and providing with the security of being optimally provided for.
For the medical professional we offer highly innovative urological diagnosis systems that in fact partly combine diagnostic and therapy. Here we see it our duty to ensure maximum user-friendliness and the intuitive operation of the systems for the doctor and his helpers. The uncomplicated integration into the daily working routine and the in-house computer system is at the same time indispensible.
A comprehensive service for the physician and patient in the form of permanent personal support establishes trust. In this way we would like to continue the professional relationship with our clients in the future and further continue thinking and acting with them in mind - because tic thinks med!

Game Description:
Before you is one of the most recognizable home console game of all time. Most people have at least heard of Super Mario. There's a good reason for that.
In this game, the objective is to walk, run, and jump to goal and eventually take out King Koopa (or Bowser as he's now known, whatever). It plays very well. You press the jump button and Mario (or Luigi) jumps. How long you keep that button pressed dictates how high Mario jumps, and it works very well. You hold down the run button and Mario speeds up. If you tap the run button, and Mario has been upgraded to Fire Mario, he will shoot out fireballs. You can't run and fire fireballs at the same time, but you probably won't be annoyed by that anyway. Your main method of defending yourself is jumping on enemies' heads, evading them, or using a powerup like the Fire Flower or the Starman. All in all, it plays very well, even to this day (so much that all of the New Super Mario Bros. games play exactly the same).
The graphics for this game are simple, almost primitive, and yet they carry a charm about them. You can tell what everything is (or at least, you can tell what's what within the confines of whatever the heck anything in this game actually is). You will never shout at your TV because of some weird obscured obstacle or platform.
The sound for this game is minimal, and yet, once again, they carry a charm about them. So much that a lot of the sound effects are used for keychain toys and the World 1-1 BGM is regularly remixed in later games or even by other composers for orchestras.
The story in this game is… well… King Koopa has kidnapped Princess Toadstool (now Peach) and you've gotta go rescue the princess. That's about it. It's pretty cliched, probably even by the time this game was released, but the gameplay is well good that you wouldn't care.
I'd recommend this game to anyone who wants to have a good time. Obviously, fans of newer Mario games will find a lot to love here as long as they don't expect to be ground pounding or wall jumping (well, not easily, anyway). Just don't expect to beat the game in your first sitting. Or ever, for that matter. Anyway, this game is specially built for fans of the platformer genre.

A group of people finds themselves trapped in dungeons to be released to a deserted mountain in the middle of nowhere.
73 days. That's how many lines I had drawn in the wall since I got there. Filthy cell. The humid air kept my fingers moist at all times. The cold crept from every inch of my skin deep into my bones. I crouched into a hole in a corner, where I felt safer embraced by the darkness. It had been hours after eating time, but today I didn't get my regular meal through the hole at the bottom of the door. This had never happened before. I usually slept for a few hours after eating, then exercised before the last meal was delivered. I hugged my legs in my hole wondering why the meal wasn't there, not that I'd have much clue.
I knew nothing about the place. I knew not why I was there. I remembered nothing about anything before waking up in that cell. All I knew was my identifier. Every time the little trapdoor opened, someone would say "Kay". I assumed that was my name. After that, I sometimes pressed my ear to the door, only to hear, in the distance, the screach of another trap door open, "Elle" said by the same misterious voice, the trap door closing... and dead silence.
My stomach growling, me half asleep already, I heard the door open. At first, I thought I was dreaming, but a breeze entered the dungeon. Fresh air. I opened my eyes. Crawling out of my comfort corner, I slowly approached the door. Without even touching the door or the wall where it closed, I walked into the slightly better lighted corridor. The front wall had several doors. I opened the one exactly facing the door I had just crossed. A bow. Arrows. Several packs of matches. A hatchet. A pair of industrial boots. That was it. I put the boots on, grabbed those things, and closed the door behind me.
I decided to walk to my right. I walked past a big door to my left and a smaller one to my right, right in front one of the other. I kept walking. Another pair of doors, this time I opened the small one. A backpack, a knife and a bag of herbs I took, leaving a pair of smaller boots than mine, a big pile of what looked like marbles.
I kept walking, until I reached an open door, where I felt the breeze coming from. I walked out of the dungeons, and stopped bewildered by the star-filled sky for a few minutes. I don't know for how long I gazed at the sky, but before I knew it, there was a red haired girl standing on my right, a tall skinny guy at her right, and a weird-looking scruffy little guy at my left.

Lindsay Lohan is having legal problems
Hollywood celebrity Lindsay Lohan better have good lawyers cause she's in real legal trouble this time. Our Mean Girls star is being sued by her former bodyguard, David Kim, for intentional infliction of emotional distress, breach of oral contract, and state Labor Code violations. Kim is forcefully asking for $55,000 to compensate him for work he did as a bodyguard, which required 24-hour service at a rate of $4,000 per week, and an additional of $2,800 per week for evening-only work.
She should have paid her bodyguard. Oh! I forgot Lindsay is already in deep sh*t right now cause her acting career is on a lay-low state. Pay up Linds or else you'll end up owing debts to your expensive lawyers.
