BeschreibungThese eleven essays caused outrage in Ireland when first published in France in 1886. They represent Moore's interpretation of life in Ireland in the early 1880s, written in his combative and naturalistic style. It can be seen as a companion piece to his famous novel, "A Drama in Muslin (available from Dufour).
InhaltsverzeichnisIntroduction by Carla King; Dublin: The Castle, Shelbourne Hotel, Kildare Street Club, Mrs Rusville; An Irish country house; The house of an Irish poet; The landlord; The tenant farmer; The priest; The patriot; A castle of yesterday; A castle of today; An eviction; A hunting breakfast; Conclusion; Editor's notes
PortraitGeorge Moore (1852-1933) was born at Moore Hall in Co. Mayo. He settled in Paris in 1873, first working as an artist and then as a writer, producing a prodigious output of novels, short stories, plays, memoirs, journalism and essays and became a leading realist writer. Apart from ten years in Dublin, Moore spent most of his life in England. Carla King lectures at St Patrick's College, Drumcondra, Dublin. She is the editor of Michael Davitt: Collected Writings (2001), of Michael Davitt's Jottings in Solitary for Classics in Irish History (2003) and is writing a biography on the last twenty years of Davitt's life.
Pressestimmen"Moore's fluent style and judicious ordering of his material make Parnell and His Island a very readable book. His beloved desolate landscape of lake and bog are a lyrical backdrop gripping documents that merit a place among 'Classics of Irish History'. Journal of Irish Studies, Japan 2005 "University College Dublin's 'Classics of Irish History' has established itself as a pleasing and important series ... King's edition of George Moore's Parnell and His Island combines a well-known Irish writer with a more elusive example of his work ... conforms to the attractive format of the series; the editing is exemplary." Irish Studies Review 13 (4) 2005 "offers a new opportunity to reassess this much maligned but crucial text within Moore's writing." English Literature in Transition 49 (4) 2006 "Written in his combative and naturalistic style, it owes something in its approach to Balzac's Les Paysans ... Carla King's Introduction and detailed notes historicize this work, identify the passages that were suppressed as too inflammatory or offensive in the original publication, and establish the place this work holds in Moore's artistic development." Irish Literary Supplement Spring 2006 "Elegantly produced with an attractive cover and illustrations, and a very useful biographical note listing major sources for Parnell's life, th book, like the work of the Parnell Society itself, achieves an impressive blend of scholarship and accessibility and will be of value both to historians of the period and the interested general reader." The Irish Book Review Autumn/Winter 2006 "University College Dublin Press has now published over thirty 'Classics of Irish History'. These contemporary accounts by well known personalities of historical events and attitudes have an immediacy that conventional histories do not have. Introductions by modern historians provide additional historical background and, with hindsight, objectivity." Books Ireland Nov 2007 "Scholars of nineteenth-century Irish and Irish-American politics should reacquaint themselves with these classics, part of a long running and immensely useful series from University College Dublin Press." Irish Literary Supplement Fall 2008

A small paradise: removed from the world, it's a place to simply be happy
Gili Trawangan is a small eco-friendly island – perfect place to indulge in a truly relaxing remote island experience. Our villa is set near the beach, on the north part of the island, the peaceful & calm area of Gili T. Many restaurants are within walking distance of the villa, such as Wilson's retreat, Desa Dunia Beda & KoKoMo. If you want to taste a local/Indonesian food we recommend Warung Made. You can watch sunset while drinking island-inspired cocktails at Sunset Ombak or chilling at The Exile.
Gili Trawangan is also known as the "turtle capital of the world", and as one of the best destinations for diving and snorkeling. Countless marine species can be seen by the vivid coral reefs. You can explore untouched beauty of the deep blue and float with graceful manta rays, turtles, reef sharks, pygmy seahorses, lion-fish, scorpion-fish, octopus... The closest dive site from the villa is Lutwala, but others are also nearby.
The beaches of the Gili T are powdery white, tout-free, and fringed by palms, turquoise waters and a coral reef. If you are looking for some time to yourself you can easily find a private beach to relax and soak the sun. You can walk around the entire shoreline in a couple of hours along a delightful path that meanders between coconut palms, and enjoy exotic beach scenery. The island is too small to get lost, so explore away. :)
No motorized vehicles are allowed, and everything must be hand-carried. The absence of cars and motorcycles creates unique environment and protects island's natural beauty from pollution. You can bike, walk or take charming horse-drawn carriages called "cidomo". We provide free bicycles to our guests to go around & explore the island. Gili T is perfectly positioned for sunsets over Bali's Mt Agung and sunrise over Lombok's Mt Rinjani. Sunset bike rides are amazing!

Canada's new PM seeks to reset rocky China ties, boost economy
By David Ljunggren
BELEK, Turkey Nov 16 (Reuters) - Canada's new Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met China's top leader on Monday, seeking to revive political ties and boost trade to help energize a faltering economy.
Canadian executives and even the foreign ministry say relations with China spluttered from early 2006 to October 2015, when Stephen Harper's Conservatives were in power.
"We have an opportunity to set a fresh approach in our relationship," Trudeau told Chinese President Xi Jinping as they met on the sidelines of a Group of 20 summit in Turkey.
"I certainly hope that this is going to be an era of greater cooperation and mutual benefit," he said, inviting Xi to visit.
A Canadian official said the two agreed to explore the possibility of a free trade treaty, but gave no further details.
Trudeau says increasing trade with major economies such as China and India will create more jobs.
In 2014, Canadian exports to China totaled C$19.4 billion ($14.6 billion) while imports were worth C$58.6 billion. By comparison, Canadian exports to the United States last year hit C$376.2 billion and imports were C$278.4 billion.
Harper initially kept his distance from China, citing Beijing's human rights record. Under pressure from business he visited Beijing in early 2012 and promised to help meet China's oil needs, but later that year he sharply limited what assets Chinese state-owned entities could buy in Canada.

Tampere Hall first Congress Centre in the Nordic Countries to obtain the Nordic Ecolabel
Press release 8 May 2014
Tampere Hall has obtained the Nordic Ecolabel and is the first Congress Centre in the Nordic Countries to do so. The Congress Centre was a pilot in the testing and development of the Nordic Ecolabel criteria designed for hotels, restaurants and congress centres. The Ecolabel was granted as of 2 May 2014 and it is a sign that environmentally the product and services are among the best.
The Nordic Ecolabel is the official ecolabel of the Nordic countries. Its purpose is to provide an environmental labelling scheme that will contribute to a sustainable consumption. Products carrying the Nordic Ecolabel meet extremely high environmental and often climate requirements. A life-cycle perspective of the product is analysed (the product's impact on the environment from raw material/source to waste). Criteria are also set with regard to quality, health aspects and performance/functionality.
Having the Nordic Ecolabel means that Tampere Hall now meets certain criteria within energy consumption. It further encourages the Congress Centre to diminish its waste production and water consumption. As much as 99% of all accumulated waste is either recycled or turned into heat energy. Strong emphasis is also given to using ecologically grown foods in the Tampere Hall restaurant.
‒ Tampere Hall has been a pioneer in environmental issues since 1992, and has been awarded for its work on several occasions. Now we have an official environmental certificate and the development work goes on. The next step along our chosen green path is the implementation of district cooling, which uses water from the Tammerkoski rapids. The implementation is planned for this year, says Property Manager Marko Koivisto of Tampere Hall.
Only those who have been awarded the Nordic Ecolabel may use the logo. In Finland the license is granted by Ecolabel Finland – Motiva Services Oy

How to play through continuous bad beats
I have a question for the board.
I have been playing this last weekend and today and I have cashed 1/4 in online freerolls.
Not big cashes but enough to play some mirco cash games.
I would like to ask the board a question.
how many times have you played and you feel like all the coin flips or even when your ahead you find some way to lose the hand and severly cripple your stack to wear you are all - in or nothing.
I`m delt pocket Jacks in PL game. Raise pot, get 3 callers. Flop KJQ rainbow. Bad flop - I had a feeling. So I raise pot, get one caller (take into account, a pot raise was now almost 50% of our stacks here)
Next card K giving KJQK flop - I now have FH. But, my feeling was worse, so I raised 1/4 pot. He calls. river 3. No flush, A10 would give straight, I`m only behind to pocket KK/ QQ/ KQ/ KJ but I had a real bad feeling.
I check, he raised 1/4 pot. I call, he shows KJ
So, I lost about 80% of my stack, but I feel it could have been worse. Bottom line, I feel I played every street right, but the guy got lucky.
With poker, it is my opinion that all you can do is make the correct move at the correct time - you have no control over what happens after that.
I hope you are not complaining about cashing in freerolls more than 1 in 4 times. freerolls are such a joke to begin with because most people playing them dont even know basic strategy which throws your game off and you end up dealing with a lot of variance. I just got through a 28 buy in downswing in my regular game. Now that was frustrating.
I am talking about losing 4 or 5 hands in a row to ridiculous circumstances in the same tourney, and only to find that in the very next tourney...just when you thought it couldn't get worse....well you get the idea. This will no doubt turn into a vicious and relentless cycle if not examined, made aware of and corrected. These scenarios = playing bad, = running bad = playing bad = running bad = bad decisions = Broke!
The most common advice is to not lose your game or style of game and continue to make the correct decisions, play the best you can, get it in good and that's all you can do, and the biggie is always "if you do the correct move, over time this will prove to even itself out"
Pretty crappy advice if your in a tourney, who cares about the next tourney when you need to win the one your in.
I can recall this poker realm or rutt rather easily because I am hip deep into it now. Early in the game (starter Stack) I turn the J high Straight, with 2 callers on the large bet. The board pairs the river and I call the pot size bet as does the other player only to my surprise the river card is the one (1) outer giving me the worse hand. Ouch! Then I lose my next hand to AA with AA, and the next hand I play I am all in with a set of J's on the flop - 10 outs to the river to improve and I lose to runner runner Straight, all I can think about is how many Tourneys did I just tank in a row?
Please remember, Free roll, 1 Million dollar, or main event, it does not matter, when you are ahead, you want players with inferior hands, or who are behind to call you. Putting aside skill sets, Your good hands MUST win when they are supposed to. When you are running bad this can be overwhelming because nothing makes sense. If your ahead 90% of the time, you should win 50% of those or expect to win at least 35% of those. But to lose 4 out of 5 or in some cases 5 out of 5? The question is..."What to do?"
1. I do not want to sound like a cop out, but the other suggestions to "Stop"...Very good advice, unless you are able to control emotions that surely put you on tilt. Me personally, I have never in my life, nor do I know of anyone whom of which has ever made a GOOD decision when angry. You have to STOP, Take your time and with diligence examine and evaluate "What just happened"
2. Understand the difference between "Playing well, and getting lucky" Everyone who has ever had a bad run, has also dished one out at one time or another. Luck is just luck, good or bad it will always be there. That is the hardest to accept. Don't label it good or bad, just know it is there. Pros, know when they are getting lucky or as I call it, a fortunate run of good cards, and have the uncanny ability to ride it out and also know when to reel it in and make sick lay downs, which often seems like wow, why on earth would he make that call or How the hell did he know to fold there? If you don't know the difference between Playing Well & Getting Lucky ..... Well then your probably just getting lucky.
2. Discipline! When you know you are running bad, use caution, pretty much all the time. If you limp with AA, be prepared to fold if your instincts tell you to do so. If you raise big with AA pre-flop and get 5 callers....use caution and rely on your instincts. How often do I win with 1 over pair anyway? Maybe you liked your hand in the beginning, but compared to whats on the board and my assessment of player reaction, Do I still like it or do I need to see another hand? Discipline rule number 1..."You can't make a comeback if you do not have any chips"
3. Patience! You must wait it out. Understand Step 2, you need Discipline to grasp patience. Being card dead for hours often makes mediocre hands seem like the nuts, and you always seem to get them out of position with 3 lags at the table. Have patience, Know your environment and know how your playing.
4. Aggressive. Often in this scenario playing scared is most likely going to take over your game. Or at least you may start to feel that way and we all know, playing scared is not playing well. You must know the difference between the two. In these situations, I will always try and play the button as often as I can without getting smacked. You will have to get aggressive period. You must maintain a level of confidence and project that into your table image no matter how you are feeling on the inside. If you are losing consistently at the river, well than it's best never to let it get that far. (This goes into chip management ... you have to know what your opponent is going to do, or at least sense it, if you leave him/her no choice to bang well than aggression is the thing you have to work on. We will save that for another topic.)
All in all I would love to hear other suggestions. This is a tough one to grasp because if you love this game, it's hard to stay in when your in this particular kind of rut.
tbh on pokerstars i lose alot of my flips but thats just poker
re: Poker & How to play through continuous bad beats
Great run down a6april
What happens to me is when I have a 90% chance of winning but it losses 5 times in a short period of time. I start playing like the other players with junk but I never seem to hit my miracle one outers. So I end up losing twice as much.
When things like this happen it really messes with my mind. And it always seems to happen more often when i am nitting it up. Its amazing to me that I can push someone all-in on the turn and they call with basically nothing and catch there one outer. Yet this never happens to me... Maybe I just fold to much.
One thing that's interesting is if some one is getting lucky they tend to continue getting lucky. I have seen it happen and I have had it happen. And from this thread I am now thinking the opposite is true and I don't pay enough attention to when its happening to other people. Although its hard because they are normally out before you can take advantage of it.
I have not figured out the solution to dealing with this yet but it is on the top of the list for things that screw with me when I play poker. Really stopping and waiting until I feel more lucky\ are in a different state of mind has worked the best so far but still not great.
Nice post a6, pretty interesting stuff.
I actually take bad beats pretty regularly and I'm wondering how often you cash game grinder get them, at the moment I generally take 1 or more bad beats for every thousand hands played which seems quite high to me but I guess that is standard.
@ OP, the important thing is that you are getting your money in good, that is all that matters at the end of the day
Every single time I play. You will find this is exactly the same for EVERYONE, there are times you have a bad streak of bad run, but this is poker...this is what makes you come back and play poker because the bad players have to win sometimes.
re: Poker & How to play through continuous bad beats
if i suffer through some bad beats in a cash game, i just try to stay focused. if i feel myself tilting or if those bad beats start affecting my decisions i take a break. it wasnt easy to walk away in the beginning
After reading this post, my original post takes on a whole new meaning, running bad = playing bad, = running bad = bad decisions = Broke!
I think I can correct this by adjusting the decision process. Bad Decisions = Running Bad = Playing Bad = Broke! I will make an attempt to sit back and be patient and understand why I make decisions and the logic I use to arrive at those decisions. I am a post flop player and usually play the player and when I am firing on all 8 cylinders, I make good decisions and I realize now that when an unfortunate turn of events occur my decision process breaks down to something less than what I am able to explain and often find myself in situations asking myself "How the hell did I get in this spot, I shoulda seen this coming a mile away"
Just an after thought and a suggestion to other posts, I will never turn away from advice and will take it all in like a sponge, but please know this, Variance is another topic altogether and a new thread should be started if that is what you want to research, briefly Variance is defined in Physics and Chemistry as the number of degrees of freedom of a system. That is to say all things being constant the unknown variable is part of the equation. I saw a post here where a bad beat occurs 1 in a 1,000. Well I hope you never get to experience losing to a 1 or 2 outer 9 out of 10 times in a row, hand after hand, tourney after tourney, and cash game after cash game. I know people who tell me this can last for months, sometimes years. This sort of thing happens to ALL poker players at some point in their career, this is the only thread (Thanks bz54321 and ALL of the other posts VERY GOOD INSIGHTS) that is willing to help some of us climb out of the mental chaos that ensues as a result of this. Hashing out the term "Variance" or "Well That's just Poker" is a little off, it's like advising someone who is on fire, to not be on fire. My personal opinion on Variance is that variance is part of the equation of poker and does not need to be addressed separately. I am not trying to snub anyone, just encouraging a little more thought. I hope this helps the people who have not run into this problem just yet …because believe me …you will and you should see the warning signs and be prepare for it. I don't believe "Riding it out" is a worthy explanation to my fellow Poker Players.
Thanks All
-- Poker Players are my kind of People; they are the only people who get me …. I love them all, even the ones I hate ~sniper
From my own experience, the single BEST way to play through continuous bad beats is by playing at a level where losing a few buy ins don't affect your emotion at all. Like it or not, the moment we lose more than a certain amount of money, we will start feeling bad and go on tilt. Quite a few successful poker pros teach this principle of 100 buy-ins bankrolls rule, such as Gaucho (think he retires now but he used to be really successful before switching off to pursue his Harvard law career), Rob Akery (still active, cashinpoker.com), the Dang brothers (big consistent winners at FullTilt highstake poker in the past and won like 10 mil, but I still see them playing 50/100$)
re: Poker & How to play through continuous bad beats
The problem for me at least is that it's not so much the bad luck, but how it can turn into bad play if you are not careful. I had a stretch of 3 months where my graph was going down almost everyday. In the beginning, it was a string of incredible beats. Then it became me going all in pre flop with stuff like TT and JJ and losing coinflips. Then I started feeling that I was gonna lose so I became very passive and had no fold equity. How to overcome it? Keep playing. Once you feel like your play's been altered, just take a break. For weeks if you have to.

BeschreibungThe first comprehensive analysis of Spain's naval forces after the defeat of the Great Armada in 1588.
InhaltsverzeichnisPreface; Introduction: the rise and fall of Spanish naval power; Part I. Money and Materials: 1. Funding the fleets; 2. Counting the trees: the conservation of Spain's forests; 3. Shipbuilding; 4. Preparing to sail; Part II. Personnel: 5. Officials of the quill; 6. Counting the crews; 7. Officers and men; Conclusion: towards an explanation; Appendices.
Pressestimmen'Spanish Naval Power provides an overview of the strategic, political and administrative contexts in which the service operated before undertaking detailed studies of funding, shipbuilding, logistics and personnel. Well written with an eye for the telling example and the poignant touch, Goodman sets out in detail not just the story of a navy but also that of the world in which it existed. It is rare that a work of naval history becomes recognised immediately as a 'classic', but that is the distinction that this book richly deserves.' The Mariner's Mirror 'This is a book of admirable scholarship which, in its insularity, its profound absorption in bureaucratic procedure and its remoteness from practical operations, nicely exemplifies one of Spain's fundamental naval weaknesses.' N. A. M. Rodger, History '... important analysis.' The Mariner's Mirror

England 218-8
(New Zealand win by five wickets)
England were left with nothing but heartache after tripping up in the 'House of Pain'.
The Carisbrook stadium here prides itself on being an unhappy hunting ground for visiting teams and so it proved for Nasser Hussain's side as they lost the deciding one-day international against New Zealand by five wickets.
The Kiwis, pegged back to 2-2 last week, took the fifth and final contest with seven balls to spare after opener Nathan Astle's brilliant century had driven a huge hole into England's inadequate 218 for eight.
Astle, making his 150th appearance for his country, survived a half chance on 15 when driving Matthew Hoggard into and out of Nick Knight's right hand.
But not even the homeward bound Darren Gough could undo him today. Astle ended the contest by hoisting Andrew Flintoff into the crowd at square leg to finish with a career-best 122.
He clattered three sixes and seven fours during a 42-ball half-century, then throttled back to underpin an innings that wobbled only once.
Flintoff had Chris Nevin caught behind. Then Craig White struck twice in the space of nine balls with Brendon McCullum playing on and Stephen Fleming flicking to second slip.
At 80 for three, New Zealand were vulnerable. But White's failure to win a leg before decision against Craig McMillan in the same over that Fleming departed effectively ended the fightback and a late double strike by Gough merely prolonged England's agony.
McMillan looked extremely fortunate. In truth, though, England had only themselves to blame after failing to capitalise on a promising position of 133 for three. Hussain and Owais Shah built a base with half-centuries, only for the innings to crumble.
"We were 20 or 30 runs short and that's what cost us today," said captain Hussain. "But we have made progress in the one-day game this winter."
He identified fielding, which still cannot be relied upon, and an inability to finish innings with a flourish as key areas to work on before next year's World Cup.
But 10 wins in 16 matches in Zimbabwe, India and New Zealand over the past five months mean there is room for optimism after last summer's depressing displays against Australia and Pakistan.
Their batting problems today began with Marcus Trescothick's fourth single figure failure in five innings since leaving India.
Already beaten a couple of times by Daryl Tuffey, the Somerset opener sliced an intended drive straight to backward point to give New Zealand a third-over breakthrough.
Knight and Hussain appeared capable of repairing that damage but hopes of a substantial partnership disappeared when Knight departed in almost identical fashion to his opening partner.
Then came the biggest blow of all with Graham Thorpe's cheap dismissal. After back-toback half centuries, he played all around a full length ball from Andre Adams.
This was not an ideal situation for Shah to face. The youngster didn't get a game in India and had little chance to impress on this trip at either Wellington or Napier. Now, restored to the side because of Michael Vaughan's shoulder injury, he looked far from fluent for a few overs.
Hussain offered as much advice and encouragement as he could but it was tough going for both of them with Chris Cairns swinging the ball and changing his pace cleverly.
The pair survived, though, and even began to flourish with Shah's confidence increasing from the moment he cut his first four, off Cairns.
Hussain duly completed his first one-day 50 in 13 innings following a string of 30s and 40s and England appeared good for a total of around 250.
Tuffey's return wrecked that plan, however. Hussain fetched the pace bowler from outside off stump but succeeded only in picking out Cairns.
Shah stayed long enough to replicate his captain's half-century (75 balls apiece) but the innings started to slide once Cairns beat him with another swinging delivery.
Flintoff disappointed again with the bat when fooled by his fellow all-rounder's change of pace. Then Paul Collingwood failed to clear Fleming at backward point and only a stand of 31 between White and Ashley Giles gave England hope.

We share aspirations with the other Scrapstores and Resource Centres operating throughout the UK to:
Set up in 1986, the Gloucestershire Resource Centre – Charity Number 1047985 – has been providing the Scrapstore service to the county ever since and is now one of the most established Scrapstores in the country.
In 1992 a capital fundraising campaign was launched to secure a permanent home for the Charity. City Works was purchased in 1995 and refurbished over the following six years at a total cost of £708,000. It was an ambitious endeavour at the time but has proved well worthwhile as City Works enables us to generate the income we need to sustain the Charity activities.
City Works is not only a great place to house the Scrapstore but is home to numerous other small businesses, arts and community enterprises as well. There's a fabulous dance studio, meeting room and an art space, and all the activities taking place contribute to the vibrancy of the Centre and success of the project as a whole.

First off, let me begin by thanking everyone who voted on my post on whether I should get Crisis Core or Dissidia for my first PSP game... because you convinced me to get both! It sufficeth me to say that I have been very pleased with both games and have had a blast the last few days (hence my absence on My IGN).
With all the excitement with the announcement of Dissidia 2 (or is it really 012?), and my recent immersion into the first Dissidia game, I've been brought to imaginings of who will join the Dissidia cast in the sequel, along with the curiosity for what you all think! I know Lightning from XIII is going to be in it, but since my expertise lies in the first 10 Final Fantasy's, and assuming that each game from the original is going to get to additional fighter for each side (Cosmos and Chaos), I'm going to limit this to the first 10 FFs...
Final Fantasy I -
Cosmos: Matoya. Beyond already having her own rocking theme song, how cool would it be to see Matoya in action?
Chaos: Bikke the Pirate. Commands pirates? Check. Terrorizes the local town? Check... um... that's all I got.
FInal Fantasy II -
Cosmos: Maria. Let's face it, the sausage fest known as the original Dissidia cast, and this generic female hero can start the turn to gender balance.
Chaos: Borghen. Funny bad-guy-ish dude. Basically, I can't remember anyone else from FF2.
Final Fantasy III -
Cosmos: Red Mage. Can he fight and cast magic? Yes! After all that talk in FF3 about the Red Mage being the pride of Sasune, it deserves a spot on this cast.
Chaos: Xande. Although the eventual battle with the stopper of time/space Xande is less than the climatic build-up it is given, he's still the real primary antagonist of Final Fantasy III. The whole Cloud of Darkness thing is just the "johnny-come-lately" when Xande can't back up his talk.
Final Fantasy IV -
Cosmos: Rydia. Does this one really need to be debated? The awesome, green-haired summoneress(?) needs to be included in the next Dissidia.
Chaos: Kain (already confirmed). I'm very excited about Kain's addition - the only Dragoon in all the FF series that I can remember to be actually powerful.
Final Fantasy V -
Cosmos: Lenna. For me, it was a toss up between the princess of Tycoon or the Brett Farve-esque, indefatigable old man Galuf, but I had to go with the princess (seriously, we need more heroines in the next Dissidia).
Chaos: Gilgamesh (FTW!!!!). Got to be Gilgamesh, the right-hand man to Exdeath. Own theme music, unique skill-set, and even a transformation (Ex Mode?). Give him the Excalipur and he's got himself an Ex Burst.
Final Fantasy VI -
Cosmos: Locke. Ah man, there are so many good choices here (Shadow, Celes, etc.), but Locke seems to be a fairly more important protagonist story-wise, and his relation to Terra makes him a quick and easy fit.
Chaos: Gestahl. I know there's already an Emperor, but despite his lacking power to Kefka, they made a pretty good evil duo (Kefka and Gestahl). If octopi become playable, I'd throw Ultros's name in there instead.
Final Fantasy VII -
Cosmos: Tifa. I have to say Tifa on pure principle (plus a brawler - rather than a sword wielder - could be a fun change). Aeris could also be a good substitute as well.
Chaos: Rufus Shinra. I know, I know - Rufus wasn't exactly a "threat" if you will, but he was greedy, insensitive, and all around douchey. Who else was there really besides Sephiroth anyways?
Final Fantasy VIII -
Cosmos: Laguna. Every time I play through FF8, I always get a kick out of Laguna. This guy makes me chuckle, and carries some of the load as main protagonist throughout the story. Laguna takes the square over Rinoa and Zell in my book.
Chaos: Seifer. Although he might run the risk of being a Squall clone with the (cooler-looking) gunblade of his, it's got to be Seifer. Squall's key rival and all-around jerk, Seifer is 100% bad-A.
Final Fantasy IX -
Cosmos: Vivi. How can you not want Vivi? The cute, little, burn you to a crisp, old-school looking black mage definitely needs to be in the next Dissidia!
Chaos: Necron. I really don't remember much about Necron, but despite his small contribution to FF9's plot, why not include him? Might need to tone down that spidery look though...
Final Fantasy X -
Cosmos: Auron. Although this was a toss-up between Auron and Yuna, I went with the man with the "magic" jug. I mean, come on, he's like Bono, but kills things.
Chaos: Seymour. Despite wearing dresses, Seymour is actually a pretty bad-A dude. His final form (that spaceship thing) kicked my trash like, 5 times until I finally beat him.
So, who would like to see in the next Dissidia cast? Feel free to sound off some FFXI, XII (Vaan, Montblanc), and XIII characters that I missed!

Hull set for year as UK City of Culture
Organisers of Hull's tenure as UK City of Culture 2017 have promised a spectacular start to a year of events they believe will delight the city's 250,000 residents as much as the thousands of visitors expected to come from around the world.
Huge crowds are expected as the festivities begin on New Year's Day with a massive fireworks display on the Humber and the opening of a city-wide installation involving many of Hull's best-known buildings.
Hull 2017 chief executive and director Martin Green hopes the program his team has put together will combine the popular and accessible with the ground-breaking and edgy and that visitors and Hull residents alike will embrace his call to "try something new".
"If I had one message, it would be the same to everyone, which is 'try something new'," Green said. "I guarantee you won't be disappointed."
Hull is the second city to be given UK City of Culture status, following Derry-Londonderry in 2013.
The city was selected in 2013 amid some surprise, from a shortlist that included Dundee, Leicester and Swansea Bay.
Since then, Hull has embraced the status with a determination to link a cultural rejuvenation with an economic one symbolised by the STG300 million (over $A500 million) investment by the German tech firm Siemens in an offshore wind manufacturing plant at Alexandra Dock.
When the program for the first three months of Hull 2017 was launched in September, Green told the UK's arts glitterati: "This city's voice has always been strong - in 2017, it will roar."
With days to go, Green said: "The city is working together like it's never worked together before. The artists we're working with are absolutely committed to making this an extraordinary year of art in Hull.
"We're just a few days away now. We've been incredibly lucky that the residents of this city have kept their confidence in this and their faith in it to happen.
"One of the things we're looking forward to now is to repay that confidence with a great year."
The opening event - Made in Hull - will use huge projections by a range of local and international artists to celebrate the past 70 years of Hull's history on buildings across the city.
It has been curated by the Bafta-nominated documentary-maker Sean McAllister, who said he thinks the effect will be "euphoric".
"It's exciting and hectic, but it's also rewarding," McAllister said.
"For the last year, we've been slowly and painstakingly putting the whole thing together.
"A lot of it's new for me because I make documentaries so it's a totally different adventure for me. And now, finally, we're signing off the main projects and reaping the rewards - seeing the delights."
The filmmaker said he was commissioned with a brief to make something relevant to all the 250,000 people of Hull, who are all invited to the opening.
"I'm really keen to see it through the eyes of the people we've thought about mostly as we've been constructing it - the people of Hull - to see how they respond. It's going to be really exciting."
The unveiling of Made In Hull will be followed at exactly 8.17pm on January 1 by the fireworks display curated with music and video on the Humber, which is predicted to be bigger and more spectacular than London's New Year's Eve show the night before.
The events of New Year's Day will open a program that includes an array of work and artists.
The worldwide profile of Hull 2017 was raised in July when US artist Spencer Tunick corralled 3,200 naked people painted blue for his trademark photographs around Hull's landmarks.
Tunick's Sea of Hull will be featured later next year at the Ferens Art Gallery, which will re-open in January following a STG4.5 million total refurbishment.
Other highlights at the gallery will include the unveiling of a nationally significant early 14th century panel by Pietro Lorenzetti and five of Francis Bacon's notorious Screaming Popes.
University of Hull alumni, the late Oscar-winning director Anthony Minghella, will be celebrated with a retrospective of his work and an exhibition in January.
Hull Maritime Museum will begin the year with a look at the city's whaling history with an audiovisual installation of a Bowhead whale.
And the city's well-known Hull Truck Theatre's program will include a new play by Hull writer Richard Bean, The Hypocrite, set in the English Civil War - which started in Hull - and starring Game Of Thrones and Full Monty actor Mark Addy.
Other highlights of the year will include a celebration of David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars, which will focus on the role of guitarist Mick Ronson, who was from Hull.
Council leader Stephen Brady has said more than STG1 billion of investment has flowed into the city since the UK City of Culture announcement, including STG100 million of capital investment in the cultural and visitor infrastructure.

These lovely and surreal mixed media artworks were created by Enrico Varrasso, a freelance illustrator and artist based in a small town near Toronto, Canada. After having graduated from the Ontario College of Art in 1989 with diploma in Editorial Illustration, Varrasso started creating illustrations for a wide variety of reputed magazines and design studios.
While I found the illustrations in his portfolio to be colorful and eye-catching, his mixed media artwork completely fascinated me with their abstract shapes and patterns which are masterfully blended with his digital art.
I asked him to tell me more about his creative process, and he replied, saying:
My mixed media art usually involves some of my digital art, vellum paper, acrylic paint, old car manuals oil stick, pencil, matte medium…sometimes there's some silver foil and found book/magazine imagery that I tear out or make copies of with my copier/printer. All of this is placed on either illustration board or plywood.
I usually work in layers of imagery using the digital artwork I've printed out onto vellum or grab the torn pages from the old books and magazines. after placing a layer of images down with the matte medium I like to push the artwork aside to dry and start the process again on another piece…I usually work on a few at a time. the following day (usually) I like to come back to the art with fresh eyes and assess where it's at. I continue the same process again with whatever material I feel is needed for the piece. Once again I set it aside for a day so that it can be viewed with fresh eyes. at this point I usually add some final touches with my oil stick, pencils and paint.
Varrasso counts artists like Marcel Duchamp, Paul Klee, Gerhard Richter, Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol, amongst his many influences. He confesses that things are never easy when one is a freelancer, but he just wouldn't have it any other way as he loves what he does for a living.
He sells select illustrations and mixed media works from his extensive portfolio (both original as well as prints) at his online store on Saatchi Online. He also undertakes commissions, and those of you who are interested can get a custom piece done in his signature style.

San Francisco-based art gallery, Spoke Art are debuting "Through the Veil," a two person art show featuring a collection of new paintings by Tatiana Suarez and Craww, tonight at their Sutter St. gallery location.
While the artistic styles and inspirations of the two artists are quite different (Tatiana is from Miami, and Craww is from across the pond in the UK), the duo are united by their haunting, yet sensual treatment of the female form in all its fragile vulnerability in their works.
Tatiana's subjects, doe-eyed vixens depicted through a traditional pop-surrealism lens, expand on the artist's Cuban heritage with a tropical palate of greens and yellows, interacting with the flora and fauna of the rainforest. The artist's history as muralist, painter and illustrator come together much like an "ajiaco", a traditional Cuban stew comprised of diverse ingredients, to inform her new body of oil and acrylic paintings on paper and canvas.
Craww, who was born and raised in the United Kingdom, creates haunting and beautiful works. His subjects have a delicate fragility, depicted with extended matchstick limbs, entwined in a bed of ravens and roses, both recurring elements found throughout his paintings. His women are shown primarily with their eyes closed (a stark contrast to Tatiana's), resting in what can be interpreted as either a peaceful slumber or a welcome death.
The exhibition will be on view through October 26, 2013. Visit Spoke Art for more details.

Michael Latimer's 22" x 30" paintings of Batman and Superman are on sale here for £80 (around $59) apiece. Released in runs of 20 each, the paintings are hand painted/sprayed with acrylics and spray paints on heavyweight luxury watercolor paper. Since they are all made by hand, each piece is an unique one. All the works in the series will come signed and numbered by the artist.
These awesome digital collages are the creations of Hong Meow (aka Estefania de Armero), a Tokyo-based digital photographer, collage artist, and "wannabe" musician. Meow's surreal works are heavily influenced by the garish, animated GIF excesses of the internet of the '90s, and also Japan's anime culture.
Born in Caracas, Venezuela, the artist is an alumni of the Savannah College of Art and Design. Her works have been exhibited at the Desotorow Gallery, Savannah, Georgia.

Japanese artist Risa Fukui's series of large-scale paper cutouts (known as Kirie) is currently on display at the Pola Museum Annex in Tokyo. Fukui created these pieces by mounting her intricately cut paper figures on hanging translucent panels, which allow the double-sided works to be viewed both from the front as well as the back. The cutouts cast shadows on the floor, which give them an additional dimensionality.
The exhibit titled "LIFE-SIZED," will be on display at the gallery until September 8, 2013.
You can visit the artist's website and check out more works in the gallery.

Cairo-based artist and sculptor, Gavin Worth's (previously) anamorphic wire sculpture is all about hope, or rather, hope in the midst of chaos. Titled "And Light Fell On Her Face Through Heavy Darkness," the piece was created during the artist's visit to Las Cruces, New Mexico. Worth had to bend 125 steel bars by hand to make the 6 foot tall sculpture.
Worth, on the piece:
With this sculpture, I tried to create a very fluid, shifting sense of form. From the side, a mass of curved steel looms over the viewer like a black wave. As the viewer walks around the sculpture, the changing shapes of light between the steel bars create the sense that the sculpture is moving, until the main image of the piece suddenly emerges: a face. The face, somehow lit through the mass of darkness surrounding it, seems to effortlessly keep that same darkness at bay.
You can watch this short video of the sculpture, to check out the anamorphic illusion.

Soul Cleanse Free verse
just needed to vent some very dark emotions. i apologize if its not good.
I Sit alone in the ever-observant eye of society's sunlight. the atmosphere around me is pungent with the scent of a soul that has been left to brood in the pit of ashes from its own untimely implosion. the clock strikes midnight but the bell tolls only a hollow reminiscent of a once beautiful chime. there is nothing left, but somehow hope still remains that the muse in my dreams will finally come take my hand.
where is my eternal flame? my Alchemic Catalyst? where is the siren who sings a haunting lullaby that cant help but soothe me? So many questions remain unheard, but is it my inability to speak that causes the silence, or is it mute words fallen on deaf ears in an attempt at communication? I wait for my answer, but as the 13th hour sings its requiem, i recieve more uncertainty. and that scares me more than the 44. pointed between my eyes by her cold imagination.

BRUSSELS (AP) — With all the noise and uncertainty surrounding Greece over the past couple of weeks, it's been easy to overlook the growing signs of economic recovery in Europe.
A raft of indicators have pointed to a pick-up in activity that puts the 19-country eurozone economy in a position to outperform expectations this year — provided it doesn't stumble into a messy Greek exit from the euro or relations deteriorate between the West and Russia over the conflict in Ukraine.
Fourth quarter figures on Friday aren't expected to show a big improvement yet, with most economists predicting mild growth of 0.2 per cent for the second quarter running.
Moving forward though, most expect the pace of growth to accelerate for a number of reasons, including the sharp falls in the price of oil and the euro.
Ben May, economist at Oxford Economics, says 2015 will be the year that the recovery finally gets going. "Recent news from the eurozone supports the view that domestic healing continues," he said.
For years, the eurozone has been in intensive care, sliding into two recessions as it struggled with an acute debt crisis that raised questions over the survival of the euro. Since ECB President Mario Draghi said in July 2012 that the bank would do "whatever it takes" to save the euro, tensions in financial markets have eased.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - November 14, 1980, New Braunfels, Texas hicof lira Center Comp. u, So^5^36 callas, Tex a;, 75235 Friday Taylor Communications Inc !5 cents November 14, 1980 Hcrald-Zeitung Vol. 89 - No. 102 20 Pages — 2 Sections (USPS 377-880) New Braunfels, Texas River Road Guadalupe River discharge comments due by Nov. 21 By HENRY KRAUSSE Staff writer River Road residents have one week to register their comments or to ask for a public hearing on a permit application filed with the Corps of Engineers to allow discharge of fill material into the Guadalupe River. A "comment period" for interested parties expires Friday, Nov. 21, according to a public notice mailed to riverfront property owners Oct. 22. The applicants, Steve and Jane Abbott and Arbs Mosley, are "seeking after-the-fact authorization for the discharge of approximately 846 cubic yards of fill material below the plane of the ordinary high water mark of the Guadalupe River," the notice reads. The Corps of Engineers' Fort Worth District office has received two comments on the action, taken in connection with parking lot construction at Abbott's River Outfitters Inc., 4.5 miles northwest of Loop 337 on River Road. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries considered the impact minor, but with reservations. The NMF "said they don't have the resources to investigate, but believe the impact will be minor," said l^arry Buck at the corps office in a telephone interview Thursday. "The Fish and Wildlife Service said they were not in favor of authorizing things in violation of the law, but given the chance to comment beforehand, they would have said the impact would be minor," Buck said. Any person may submit a written request for a public hearing to the District Engineer's office, but the request and comments should be received not later than Nov. 21. "However, more time may be given when required if the request is received by the limiting date. If no comments are received by that date, it will be considered that there are no objections." the public notice reads. An environmental assessment will be completed after the comment period. Buck said. Comments should be addressed to the office of the District Engineer, Fort Worth District, Corps of Engineers, 819 Taylor St., Fort Worth, Tex. Additional nformation is available from I*irry Buck or David Barrows at (817) 334-2681. Close encounters of a tree kind An alien arm reaches across a wooded area, a loud buzzing sound is heard, then a tree limb crashes to the ground. You may have experienced this same phenomenon if you were in Landa Park. Schwab's Tree Staff photo by John Sen tar Service has been trimming and dressing the trees in the park to achieve better shaped trees. The project is funded by the Parks and Recreation Department. Grand Jury no-bills man in shooting A Rockport man who had confessed to the Nov. 2 shooting of Timothy Joe Nelson, 31, of Austin, was no-billed yesterday by the Comal County Grand Jury. The grand jury no-billed Patrick Gordon, 28, after more than three hours of testimony. "He did it in self-defense," Felix* Roque, head of the New Braunfels Police Department, said. Police said Nelson was shot in a parking lot across from the Wurstfest grounds at approximately 12:45 a.m. Nov. 2, after a dispute with Gordon concerning getting out of the crowded lot. Nelson, in an attempt to lead a friend's van into the line of traffic leaving the parking lot, was trying to get other drivers' attention by banging on their car hoods, police said. Nelson smashed the passenger side windshield of Gordon's car with his fist and threatened the passengers in the car, police said. Gordon produced a .22 caliber revolver and shot Nelson in the chest, then drove out the rear of the parking lot through a field, police said. Nelson was pronounced dead at 1:13 a.m. Nov. 2 from a single gunshot wound to the chest. Gordon, accompanied by his attorneys, met with police detectives and a Texas Ranger Nov 4, and confessed to the shooting, Roque said. The grand jury also indicted Stephen Harmon, 103 E. Mulberry, San Antonio, for theft of property by check; Jeffrey Dale Allrnan, 130 E. Formosa, Sari Antonio, John Scott Morris, 350 E. Formosa, San Antonio, and Pedro G. Escobedo, 276 West End, New 'He did it in self-defense, ' Detective Felix Roque said concerning the incident Nov. 2. Braunfels, for burglary of a motor vehicle. Also, indicted were Orlando Esquivel, 533 Sherman, San Antonio, Patrick Jessie Walsh, 1041 Madeline St., New Braunfels, Francisco Sanchez Mendoza, 10715 San Jose Ave., Del Valle, and Manuel M. Lopez, 916 Sycamore, San Marcos, for driving while intoxicated; James Michael Welsch, 1352 Cedar Elm St., New Braunfels, for theft more than $200 and less than $10,000, and Alfred Partida Vasquez, 854 Samuels Ave., New Braunfels, for possession of a controlled .substance. Names of four other individuals indicted for felonies were witheld pending their arrest. The grand jury passed the case of Jimmy Jennings, who has been charged with indecency with a child, for further investigation. Mrs. Elizabeth Culpepper is foreman of the Grand Jury. Members are Carol DeHaven, Ruby Morgan, Verna Peterman, Kenny Durocher, Elaine Patten, Delores Mitchell, Juan Hinojosa, Gaston Haupert, George Smith, Calvin Mantooth III and Patsy Nisson.

Its fate now, however, is unclear in the unpredictable lame-duck session. The House voted Thursday to continue the $4.6 billion in no-strings-attached grants to local governments through fiscal 1983, which will end Sept. 30 of that year. It also authorized $2.3 billion a year for state governments in fiscal 1982 and 1983. The measure now goes to the Senate, which is expected to consider a similar version of its own next week. While Senate approval is likely, it is questionable whether there will be enough time before the targeted Dec. 5 adjournment date of this lame-duck session to resolve differences between the two measures. "To forecast with reliability" what the outcome will be is impossible, said a Senate aide, who asked not to be identified. Comal County Commissioners Charles Mund and Orville Heitkamp went to Washington this week at county expense to lobby with congressional leaders on the matter. Earlier the Commissioners Court passed a resolution supportig the continuation of revenue sharing.outcome Revenue sharing, begun during Richard M. Nixon's presidency, expired Sept. 30, the end of fiscal 1980, but the effect has yet to be felt by local governments that rely on the money as an integral part of their budgets — ranging from police and fire protection to civic projects. The next round of grants are not due until January. The National league of Cities said in a statement Thursday that the uncertainty "has left local governments around the United States facing the prospect of substantial shortfalls in revenue for budgets that were prepared and adopted earlier this year." "Revenue sharing contributes 5 percent ofremains the local revenues in an average city and substantially more in some communities," the statement said. laical officials say failure to extend the program might lead to higher property taxes and curtailed services. The House rejected efforts to eliminate the states' share and to extend the program for local governments for only one years. The Senate bill would extend the program at the $4.6 billion annual level for five years and authorize the $2.3 annual state grants for four years beginning in fiscal 1982. It also would authorize $1 billion a year in additional federalunclear aid, which is triggered in times of severe recession. Opponents of the state grants argued the federal government no longer can afford thei Supporters said they are the most efficient method of providing federal aid, because the are no strings attached and little bureaucrat is needed to administer the program. Rep Jack Brooks, D-Texas, the Governme Operations Committee chairman and a stroll opponent of revenue sharing, said if state entitlements were retained, Congress could "kiss a balanced budget goodbye for your lifetime." Conservative leaders voice fears that Reagan deserting their causes WASHINGTON (AP) — Presidentelect Ronald Reagan's choice of mainstream Republicans for his transition team is setting off alarms from the New Right, whose leaders are worried over their apparent decline of influence. "We don't understand why the conservatives have not been more prominent in the campaign and the early stages of the transition," said Richard Viguerie, a leading fund-raiser for conservative causes. "It sure looks strange." Although New Right leaders continue to voice confidence that Reagan will live up to his conservative principles, they are clearly concerned about being shut out of the incoming Reagan administration. "The early signs are that Governor Reagan will be pursuing rather liberal policies economically and a policy of detente in foreign affairs," said Howard Phillips, national director of the Conservative Caucus. Reagan has turned heavily to former officials from the administrations of Presidents Gerald R. Ford and Richard M. Nixon in setting up his transition team. And that has raised suspicion among some conservatives that a Reagan administration might adopt policies similar to those pursued by his two Republican predecessors — policies the New Right considers too moderate. The New Right, which advocates major tax cuts, sharp reductions in social spending and a massive military buildup, has been particularly critical that advisory positions have been given to former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, former Treasury Secretary George Shultz and Alan Greenspan. Two bands score firsts New Braunfels, Canyon and Smithson Valley High School Bands all have a right to be proud. All the practicing they've been doing for the last month, paid off. At the University Interscholastic league marching competition held Wednesday at Southwest Stadium in San Antonio, all three bands brought back top honors in addition to their trophies. Mike Myers, assistant director at New Braunfels High School, said the Unicorn Band brought home a trophy for a first division rating, which is classified as being superior out of five possible ratings. Winning first place was not much of a surprise to Myers, however, since the more than 200-member band also did it last year. In his words, they were merely "keeping up a tradition." The Unicorn Band is not alone in sharing honors, however. I.arry Correll, director, reports the 150-member Canyon High School Cougar Band also brought home a first-place trophy. "It's the first time in 5 years that we've gotten a one (superior rating)," Correll commented. The Smithson Valley High School Ranger Band had a few minor problems, which kept it from gaining a first division rating, according to I^irry Sparks, director. "The kids did a real fine job, but we had a few precision problems because of the extreme spread of th< band," he explained. The 94-member Smithson Valley Band still brought back a trophy with an "excellent" or second rating. ;

The idea of museums is a strange one. This is a definition I found when I looked up the word museum: a building in which objects of historical, scientific, artistic, or cultural interest are stored and exhibited. My acute obsession with museums began when I visited the East London museum while I was in prep school. We visited the museum regularly throughout primary school whenever our work related to an exhibition that was in the museum. I never questioned the concept nor the content of a museum. Who decides what is of interest and is worthy of being exhibited in a museum?
The Nairobi National Museum has a colonial character even though the work features the history of Kenya, the history of humankind, birds of East Africa and two exhibitions featuring the work of contemporary Kenyan artists. There's also a photo exhibition celebrating Kenya's 50 years of independence. While wandering around I wondered how often the museum is updated as some of the signs look as though they've been there since the birth of the museum.

My day ended with a catch up dinner with a friend (at an Ethiopian restaurant where the lights went out twice while we were waiting for our meal) who is a journalist in Kenya after her studies in South Africa. She had many interesting stories to share about the anxieties of telling Africa's stories...a conversation for another day I think. The conversation began talking about her experience of being back in Kenya, my experience of Cape Town, our frustrations about the state of Africa with South Sudan, CAR, Egypt facing many conflicts.
There are many stories that are yet to be told about Kenya and the continent as a whole. Stories that cannot be contained in a museum.
