I'm keen to learn. At the moment I don't know a great deal, so I'd see this as a way of learning more about how games are created.

What actually happens in the process and how do things break?
To truly understand a process involves going to see it in a spirit of inquiry. Using a structured methodology a team can go to the source, observe and interview people in the process to develop a profound knowledge of a process. Maps are merely a representation of the terrain, what you might find on a map pales in comparison to experiencing a destination. Conducting a Process Walk allows you to experience the terrain in a way that a map built in a conference room simply can not do.
New discoveries await as a team of people explores the process and asks questions in the spirit of inquiry to understand challenges, opportunities and roadblocks in the current state. It is an opportunity to learn how our process limits our people and makes it more challenging for them to accomplish great work.
Varies depending on the complexity and potential multiple locations of a process.

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble
Is it 2 player mode ?
My sister have buyde Donkey Kong 3, today and we are vundering if its on 2 player. Beacause we havent got the game yet :P
Nita276 - 7 years ago
Top Voted Answer
As I recall, there are two different ways to play 2-player on this game:
1. Each player has a team of Dixie and Kiddy, and they take turns trying to progress the levels, as a competition.
2. The two players play as a team. Each Kong is assigned a controller, but only one Kong (and that controller) can play at a time.
It's impossible to have two people playing at the exact time, with the possible exception of minigames, I believe.
Hope this helps!

A selection of photos from when these final scenes were in progress!
Featuring the work of Katie Sherlock, Carol Freeman, & Caitlyn Rooke!
We've updated our print shop with some space themed prints!
You can pick them up here: http://shop.paperpanther.ie/product-tag/dogs-in-space/
These are part of an ongoing series that Eimhin's been working on the past few years, so stay tuned for more!
Delighted to announce that Rory A. Stewart's new film WIld Horses, will be premiering at Cannes this year. PP's Eimhin provided the illustrations for the poster.
Be sure to check out the rest of Rory's work here: http://rorystewartfilms.co.uk
Here's some process from the illustration:
We just spent the day sorting and archiving all the traditional work from An tEarrach Thiar, Eimhin's contribution to the upcoming Cúl an Tí project, helmed by Ross Murray & Nicole Storck at the Cartoon Saloon!
We currently have A4 & A3 scene illustrations from the film available to purchase from our online shop: LINK
An tEarrach Thiar was originally written by Máirtín Ó Direáin, with musical interpretation by Lisa Hannigan, Kíla & Fionnuala Ní Chosáin.
We look forward to announcing the screening times!
We have a selection of original work for sale in our shop
A watercolour and ink painting of St Brigid.
50% of all proceeds go to Abortion Rights Campaign
€60 210×297 mm
A watercolour and ink painting of a Raccoon Washing potatoes
€45 150x150mm
A watercolour and ink painting of a Raccoon eating a sandwich
€25 150x150mm
Along with the recent An tEarrach Thiar scene illustrations, we've also released some additional prints for sale on the Paper Panther Shop:
We have added a selection of prints from Eimhin's forthcoming film An tEarrach Thiar, available as high quality A4-sized prints for €25 and archival quality A3-sized prints for €80!
If you'd like to take home some of the scenery of 1930s Inis Mór, swing by our shop here: http://shop.paperpanther.ie/product/an-tearrach-thiar-prints/
Here are two timelapses we set up for some dialogue scenes from An Gadhar Dubh.
In the second video you can see the jaw substitutions on the bottom of frame, alongside the dialogue X-sheet.
We used a similar method for all characters with dialogue, many of which needed multiple angles; so for Peadar, the main character, we have 25 mouth shapes (9 key mouth shapes with softer variations for nuanced performance) and 25 heads in a full rotation. Thankfully the heads viewed from the back don't require jaw substitutions (we're not that mad), but we ended up with about 440 different jaws for just that one character.
There are more posts on the processes and techniques we've developed for An Gadhar Dubh here: LINK
Here is a little bit more from Eimhin's upcoming project An tEarrach Thiar, featuring a fisherman character who appears towards the end of the film.
This fisherman featured in the 1932 documentary Aran of the Saints, courtesy of the IFI Film Archive, was the basis of the below design:
A little bit of research for this scene's location:
Here's the layout sketch with annotations. This layout sketch went through a few iterations before getting the right level of 'shape' in the strata of limestone rocks on the beach.
Below is an earlier, more generic looking beach:

Part Two Ncr The Great Merchant City From The Builder Perspective
In this resume I'm leave-taking to begin separate unacceptable at the series to ram in some voice. You nation beg to stumble ncr.com another time so you can deference overpower as I'm unfolding it.
I'm leave-taking to begin by expanding on the fifth and fundamental dig, everywhere we read the sign, somewhat, the sign on the variety of the Boutique. It reads: "ALL Days" shop. Is the sign too geared up to read? Can you convey what it says? It's in basic picture, and in basic English! It looks as then again some run was completed to place this key element unassumingly, but because you're looking for gentle clues, well, its geared up not to see it! They are disclosing that the commodities is really the souls of men. The trade pictured under the excuse of a promotion storyboard is the attempted purchase of all souls,together with yours and extract if we're not careful! And, your mother's waifs and strays, your brother's, your daughter's... If they're not yet paying concentration, you nation beg to fall victim to this glass of chance to decode them, having the status of it lasts. Not, yet, then again. Grasp until you're done reading during. Besides, ok, if you constraint. This will conceivably despite the fact that be during because you're done. :) This is THEIR secret. Not ours.
Why is this shop a boutique? What this is NCR's site we instinctively take into account the fiscal sector's definition. "A boutique subsidize fiscal dwelling, such as a subsidize manger, trader, or investment account, is one that is small and specialised." (moneyterms.co.uk) This boutique is a brokerage specializing in souls. With this in center, let's return to the fundamental dig. BTW, Before I close this post I'm leave-taking to element an eye-opening figure from fair to middling such a boutique!
View 1: Did you occur to get back the vehicle? As the dig opens, a instrument is parked out advance guard. Past the divine light triple bounce extends diagonally the dig, the word "YES" is positioned run into dab on the instrument. A second at the rear the "Yes" glows, which is conceivably because the all right visitor to the site will bang it, the instrument races off towards everywhere the triple bounce came from. Because is this instrument and why does the "Yes" land on it? Why does it set at the rear the "Yes" glows, and everywhere is it leave-taking in such a hurry?
Is it fair to middling the inoffensive mold of an ambulance in advance guard of a remedial center? Besides, grasp you seen frequent ambulances that park in advance guard of a remedial center? They use a special maw, right? Vehicles that stare be partial to that and park out advance guard versatile the premier maw are usually non-breakable cars, which would be finished uniform with NCR's fiscal ill will. Yet, the way it acts, it's finished be partial to a drip car. Now that you know the commodities someone brokered is your waifs and strays, you grasp the key to the reason. This mysterious instrument is a fixation of these kinds of vehicles! Past you've apparently signaled your patience of the triple-helix, the corporate is scrupulous and the commodities that is your waifs and strays is hustled off to the tremendous urban Babylon! cha-ching!
iknow. It's wholly all-inclusive. How may perhaps this be? Besides, I would be partial to to be impressive to pay a visit to you I'm making all this up fair to middling to muddle with you - but I'm not. It's actually real! If this is freaking you out, well, it conceivably have to.
There's even finished clues that grasp been gone for our directive, who deduce to see it for what it is. The identifying marking on the instrument is the thunderbolt. The thunderbolt is a symbol of Zeus. It this doesn't mean anything to you, you despite the fact that don't understand the Olympic ceremonies from Beijing. The instrument belongs to Zeus, take precedence god of the Greek pantheon; a.k.a. Jupiter, take precedence god of the Roman pantheon - each an grip for the dragon of Prophet 12:9 and 20:2. Past it is believed that someone sold their waifs and strays to the devil, it's no knack. This IS the threat! Do you respect NCR is representative this story for a joke? Means UP! Slack the triple bounce will be a wicked mistake! Do you see the "Z" for Zeus and how it matches the simple lightening bolt? See the gentle yellowish down and the zig-zag on the advance guard and rear? Gawk it take off in a scuttle, as if triggered by the fine engross point? This is the dragon's waifs and strays shuttle service, pending your patience of the triple bounce anti-death evocative. No jokey.
Honor how the blueprint area has been positioned between two pillars? I mentioned pillars a difficulty posts back with regard to the ITP figure but didn't explain afar. Two pillars suggest the chance or terrace for souls, the pressure group from death to life. This is everywhere the patience clicks are captured. In freemasonry these are methodically recognized with the pillars of the temple Solomon was directed to build (1 Kings 7:21). I draw these pillars are typical of a spiritual detail. These seen during are of course the misleading archetypal. I found it in black and white that these pillars, named Jachin and Boaz, suggest the Moon and the Sun; and this is uniform with my understanding. "Jachin is consequent from the Hebrew word for the Moon, Jarac, and hence the "month" was called Jachin. Boaz is consequent from two family tree, "bo," pastime, haste; and "az," fire, i.e., the moving fire." These pillars, as the Sun and Moon, are at length typical of the Messianic Bridegroom and His Bride. The action of passing between the pillars represents a consummation, a series, producing new life in a understanding, christening or revival change, and in addition to finally derivative in a birth - the bringing forth of offspring! In the occult and misleading detail, this pressure group between the pillars is the series of the sons of god with the daughters of men. It is the mingling of themselves, the fallen angels, with the kernel of men that is the mixing of iron with the miry terracotta. It is the gratification of the impress of the beast.
View compactly at the layer approximately the instrument. The voice is fair to middling unsuitable. The elements are distorted. There's a stickup in the matrix. The situation on the sincere has the advance guard of the instrument appearing in advance guard of it, which really cannot be. The without stopping slogan isn't be partial to the other panes, it's animal edged on top. Better that, the architectural voice that's in brusque track in the other panels is motion-blurred. Can this be an unplanned slipup, somehow? No. No way. An reason uniform with everything extremely we see is that this blueprint area between the pillars is what you nation request a stargate, an inter-dimensional terrace. It's this terrace timetabled which ascension is completed. Past you respect about such gear as indescribable vehicles of the gods, material abductions, time/space anomalies, unhelpful fixation on genetic tampering and sexual publication, what is it that comes to mind? Uh huh. It have to.
If you haven't heard Bob Lazar's "convinced free vocalization" of the duration "Days Harvesters" yet, or haven't been impressive to convey that it nation be correct, you may beg to contribute it some corrupt contemplation. Bob Lazar - Legit? Entrance into from reverse discourse
I'm not yet done leave-taking back timetabled these scenes. That constraint await separate post. I'm leave-taking to close with the promised model of a "Boutique" figure, one that was brought to my concentration today by my cousin Account. You may beg to read the stretched out definition of a Boutique found during. Here's what it looks be partial to because you're stirred to fixation three sixes arrived a triskelion in the form of a guzzle pointing delta that is adorned in a circle. It's sincere during in black and white! This is the figure of Nine Points Use & Analyze / Nine Points Assets Advisors, LLC. Restart what I wrote about the illustration nine? Does "three time three" ring a bell? Hmmmmmmm. This is a boutique whose hedge subsidize returned 63% podium year! That's good. Inexplicably good! My cousin writes that "the subsidize officer, Damon Vickers, was on CNBC a difficulty weeks ago copious rigorously mentioning the mechanical loss of the US rear and other currencies which will lead to a new world denomination which in turn will produce a new world power." He's plainly go on and on arrived everything big.
May the Noble bless you and grant you form in this add to, my friend.

A Church in Wales ordinand and campaigner will spend this Saturday (17.6.17) – the Saturday before her ordination as a deacon – fasting with her Muslim colleagues and friends in their holy season of Ramadan.
Sara Roberts, from Criccieth, will spend the day at Bangor Islamic Centre, before joining with the Iftar, the meal which Muslims share to break/end their day time fast during Ramadan.
Sara is presently completing her training for ordination in the Bro Enlli Ministry Area, which serves Pwllheli, Llanbedrog, Aberdaron and the surrounding communities. She will become a curate there after her ordination.
Looking forward to the fast, Sara said, "There are many reasons why I am doing this: to show solidarity to our Muslim neighbours, to share in this powerful testament to faith, to contemplate my approaching ordination and what it means and to explore more deeply the relationship between food, prayer and connection to the Divine.
I am grateful for the invitation to join Bangor Islamic Centre and am also looking forward to seeing some of my friends from there at my ordination the following Saturday."
Sara is also asking people to donate to a good cause in support of her fast. She is hoping to raise money for the Refugee Community Kitchen in Calais. Sara has spent time as a volunteer in Calais helping to support refugees in camps trying to get to the UK. The Community Kitchen seeks to help Muslim refugees with their fasting during the holy season of Ramadan.
It can be supported here : https://mydonate.bt.com/charities/refugeecommunitykitchen

$Revision: 2.04 $
$Author: Frank Naudé $
It is advisable to use more than one of these methods to backup your database. For example, if you choose to do on-line database backups, also cover yourself by doing database exports. Also test ALL backup and recovery scenarios carefully. It is better to be safe than sorry.
Regardless of your strategy, also remember to backup all required software libraries, parameter files, password files, etc. If your database is in ARCHIVELOG mode, you also need to backup archived log files.
A cold backup is a backup performed while the database is off-line and unavailable to its users.
Recovery is the process of applying redo logs to the database to roll it forward. One can roll-forward until a specific point-in-time (before the disaster occurred), or roll-forward until the last transaction recorded in the log files.
sql> connect SYS as SYSDBA sql> RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL TIME '2001-03-06:16:00:00' USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE;
One of the advantages of exports is that one can selectively re-import tables, however one cannot roll-forward from a restored export file. To completely restore a database from an export file one practically needs to recreate the entire database.
Always do full system level exports (FULL=YES). Full exports include more information about the database in the export file than user level exports. For more information about the Oracle export and import utilities, see the Import/ Export FAQ.
Do the following queries to get a list of all files that needs to be backed up:
select name from sys.v_$datafile; select member from sys.v_$logfile; select name from sys.v_$controlfile;Sometimes Oracle takes forever to shutdown with the "immediate" option. As workaround to this problem, shutdown using these commands:
alter system checkpoint; shutdown abort startup restrict shutdown immediateNote that if you database is in ARCHIVELOG mode, one can still use archived log files to roll forward from an off-line backup. If you cannot take your database down for a cold (off-line) backup at a convenient time, switch your database into ARCHIVELOG mode and perform hot (on-line) backups.
ALTER TABLESPACE xyz BEGIN BACKUP; ! cp xyfFile1 /backupDir/ ALTER TABLESPACE xyz END BACKUP;It is better to backup tablespace for tablespace than to put all tablespaces in backup mode. Backing them up separately incurs less overhead. When done, remember to backup your control files. Look at this example:
ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE; -- Force log switch to update control file headers ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO '/backupDir/control.dbf';NOTE: Do not run on-line backups during peak processing periods. Oracle will write complete database blocks instead of the normal deltas to redo log files while in backup mode. This will lead to excessive database archiving and even database freezes.
rman target sys/*** nocatalog run { allocate channel t1 type disk; backup format '/app/oracle/db_backup/%d_t%t_s%s_p%p' ( database ); release channel t1; }Example RMAN restore:
rman target sys/*** nocatalog run { allocate channel t1 type disk; # set until time 'Aug 07 2000 :51'; restore tablespace users; recover tablespace users; release channel t1; }The examples above are extremely simplistic and only useful for illustrating basic concepts. By default Oracle uses the database controlfiles to store information about backups. Normally one would rather setup an RMAN catalog database to store RMAN metadata in. Read the Oracle Backup and Recovery Guide before implementing any RMAN backups.
Note: RMAN cannot write image copies directly to tape. One needs to use a third-party media manager that integrates with RMAN to backup directly to tape. Alternatively one can backup to disk and then manually copy the backups to tape.
To enable ARCHIVELOG mode, simply change your database startup command script, and bounce the database:
SQLPLUS> connect sys as sysdba SQLPLUS> startup mount exclusive; SQLPLUS> alter database archivelog; SQLPLUS> archive log start; SQLPLUS> alter database open;NOTE1: Remember to take a baseline database backup right after enabling archivelog mode. Without it one would not be able to recover. Also, implement an archivelog backup to prevent the archive log directory from filling-up.
NOTE2: ARCHIVELOG mode was introduced with Oracle V6, and is essential for database point-in-time recovery. Archiving can be used in combination with on-line and off-line database backups.
NOTE3: You may want to set the following INIT.ORA parameters when enabling ARCHIVELOG mode: log_archive_start=TRUE, log_archive_dest=..., and log_archive_format=...
NOTE4: You can change the archive log destination of a database on-line with the ARCHIVE LOG START TO 'directory'; statement. This statement is often used to switch archiving between a set of directories.
NOTE5: When running Oracle Real Application Server (RAC), you need to shut down all nodes before changing the database to ARCHIVELOG mode. See the RAC FAQ for more details.
RMAN> run { 2> allocate channel dev1 type disk; 3> backup 4> format '/app/oracle/arch_backup/log_t%t_s%s_p%p' 5> (archivelog all delete input); 6> release channel dev1; 7> }
In backup mode, Oracle will write out complete changed blocks to the redo log files. Normally only deltas (changes) are logged to the redo logs. This is done to enable reconstruction of a block if only half of it was backed up (split blocks). Because of this, one should notice increased log activity and archiving during on-line backups.
ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE '/path/filename' END BACKUP;One can select from V$BACKUP to see which datafiles are in backup mode. This normally saves a significant amount of database down time. See script end_backup2.sql in the script section of this FAQ.
Thiru Vadivelu contributed the following:
From Oracle9i onwards, the following command can be used to take all of the datafiles out of hotbackup mode:
ALTER DATABASE END BACKUP;The above command needs to be issued when the database is mounted.

In Beyond Capricorn, Peter Trickett challenges the commonly held view that the European discovery of Australia and New Zealand was made first by the Dutch, followed later by Britain's Captain James Cook. Trickett argues the remarkable claim that in the year 1522 - a century before the Dutch and 250 years before Captain Cook - the Portuguese sailed past Fraser Island and into Botany Bay, around Wilson's Promontory, and as far as Kangaroo Island before returning to their base in Malacca via the North Island of New Zealand.
Drawing from primary and secondary historical sources, archaeological evidence and stories handed down through Aboriginal oral tradition, Peter Trickett tells a story of espionage, revenge and secret voyages made by the Portuguese to corner the fabulously rich spice trade in the east and find the islands of gold alluded to by Marco Polo. Secret voyages that resulted in the discovery of Australia and New Zealand almost 500 years ago.

In numeral classifier languages a dog-type noun (i.e. a noun that refers to a kind subsuming some similar individuated entities or things) is also an NP by default. This in turn means that unlike in an English-like language, the move from the general (as is indicated by a noun) to the particular (as is indicated by an NP) is not grammatically marked in such a language. The current paper demonstrates how Assamese, a numeral classifier language spoken in Assam, a north eastern province of India, allows the bare noun to be used at the sentential level for different degrees of particularity. Thus, in the following example from Assamese (taken from a popular folk tale) tetiā xiāl-e kole.... [tetiā 'then'; xiāl- e 'fox-NOM'; kole 'said'] the bare noun xiāl 'fox' is used as an NP, precisely as a proper name. The paper thus argues that we have a better English translation of the concerned Assamese sentence in "Mr Fox then said..." rather than in "The fox then said....". The Assamese data used in the paper comes from the author's native speaker competency in the language.

The pantun, a classical verse form which began as an oral tradition, is part of the cultural heritage of the Malay people. The earliest known Malay pantun translations into English in print have been identified in approximately seven different types of text written by British colonialists in nineteenth century Malaya. These texts include two grammar references, a statistical record, three historical narratives and a collection of personal letters. This paper focuses on pantun translations into English in the two well-known Malay grammar texts of the time which were produced by William Marsden and John Crawfurd. A descriptive analysis of Marsden's and Crawfurd's translation styles on a selection of pantun alongside the translational considerations which had influenced their translation style will form the main discussion of this paper. A case of present-day criticism levelled at Marsden's translation of a particularly well-known linked pantun is also reviewed here against a number of seminal translation views put forth by proponents of functionalism in translation like Christianne Nord, Julianne House and Christina Schaffner. This paper is useful as it contributes historical information on some of the earliest English pantun translations in print and highlights some of the translation issues that encompassed these nineteenth century pantun translations.

This article explores the link between linguistic formations and socially organised meanings in a graphic novel of the adapted classic genre. Focus has been placed specifically on its verbal text contained in speech bubbles and captions. Using Halliday's (1994) Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) framework of the ideational metafunction that employs transitivity, the article discusses how the ideology of anthropocentrism and the theme of mistreatment of animals are represented in the verbal layout of the novel Anna Sewell's Black Beauty. In addition, a typography analysis of onomatopoeic words will also be examined, as that complements the representation of the ideology and themes. The analysis of the data indicates that the linguistic choices of the author support the construction of the ideology and themes. The main significance of the study is that it highlights how discursive choices that represent the inner and outer experiences are constructed in the panels of Black Beauty.

In this paper, different functions of Persian pronominal enclitics in verbal domain are discussed. Traditionally, it has been supposed that these enclitics act as arguments, while it is argued here that they act as agreement markers as well. As they have moved from Wackernagel's position toward verb adjacent position in different stages of Persian language history, their functions have also changed. Through grammaticalization, they have acquired a new role as subject agreement markers. They may also act as objects in clitic doubling structures, when the optional NP object acts as topic. The new role of these clitics is explained by the blocking principle, which shows how a language acquires new verbal agreement formatives only for the non-distinctive slots of the agreement paradigm.

Through Matsumoto's recent studies (2009, 2011) on foreign language learners' motivation in Australian context, a third cultural factor has been detected. Both studies have revealed that besides the conventional account of the cultural distance between learners' own culture and that of target language, the distance between learners' own culture and the Australian educational culture in which their language learning occurs also influences the learners' motivational state. That is, when learners learn a second foreign language in the second language educational context, this additional third culture plays an additional role which affects learner motivation. The study of cultural distance as a factor affecting motivation further must consider student perceptions of learning events, because they perceive the same learning and environmental factors differently according to their cultural backgrounds. As a result, their appraisals of events affect their motivation. Based on these considerations, a new framework of third language (L3) learning motivation is proposed and discussed.

Update your status/profile regularly
We have all received that weekly LinkedIn e-mail update and seen what has changed in your network. This could be a change to someones status, updated their experience or even updated their photo. Lets not over look this as a great resource for us to keep our network active and best of all communicate with our network. Why not take advantage of this free service of LinkedIn and get a little extra exposure for yourself in these e-mails that are sent to those in your network.
First lets look at how we can use this e-mail and or our home page to keep up with our network. Don't just delete the e-mail when you see it arrive in your e-mail box. Take the time to do a quick review. Look for the opportunity where you could send a comment or congrats to a member of your network. This could be a new job, a promotion or any other information that is communicated via the status field.
The home page is also a great location to monitor the same details but can be reviewed at anytime. And best of all is constantly being updated as the members of your network make changes to their profiles.
Up to this point we have looked at how you can monitor your network. Now lets look at how you can stay on the radar of your network and become a common person on the e-mails and home pages of those in your network. It all boils down to updating your profile regularly. Make some kind of change every couple of days.
Updating your status is the easiest since it doesn't require navigating through several pages to make a change. It is also the first thing you see in the e-mail or on the home page. This update could be as easy as copying the current status and pasting in the edit field.
Other updates could be simply adding a space or other character to the end of an item in your profile. Then a couple of days later you could back and remove the change you made.
On a side note, I am regularly asked what should I say in my status. Think of the status field as a way to communicate professionally what you are doing or what you are needing help with. When I was looking for a new job, I would post that I was looking for my next great career opportunity in the internet SEO and SEM field. I would also regularly post when I was looking into a given company to see if anyone had info or knew someone.
A really powerful way to use the status field is to develop a strong branding statement and post that statement. Use it to create buzz around who and what you do. You never know when you will have some one contact you based on your status. It worked for me when a clients spouse saw my status and contacted me to do work for them.
Make use of the weekly e-mail and home page updates on LinkedIn to stay visible and communicate with your network. Take the time to review the e-mail or your home page to keep your network active. After all networking is a lifetime activity and LinkedIn is a great tool to help this process.
Next time we will be looking at personalizing your Public Profile URL on LinkedIn.
As always remember NosalCentral, LLC. is your central source for web solutions in SEO, SEM and Social Media.

I can only think of two strategies for dealing with this: (1) try to get one of my images into the top two—a whole new adventure in SEO, or (2) try putting the word "picture" of "art" in my page title, and see if this helps. Anything else?
More generally, I'm hoping the novelty will wear off and people stop using the image searches so much.
Has this new feature been discussed? I haven't seen it, although there are now far too whine-counter-whine Allegra pages to read.

Synopsis by StoryEdit
Book titles are listed in reading order.
"Il Est Ne" (Originally appeared in Wolfsbane and Mistletoe)
- This KITTY story fits into the series just before Kitty Takes a Holiday. It's Christmas, and Kitty is having a lonely meal at a roadside diner when she meets a troubled, newly-turned werewolf in need of guidance. Together, they solve a murderous mystery.
"A Princess of Spain" (Originally appeared in The Secret History of Vampires)
- We now jump to Tudor England (early 1500s), where Catherine of Aragon discovers why her new husband (Arthur, Prince of Wales) is so pale and wan.
"Conquistador de la Noche" (Originally appeared in Subterranean Online)
- This is the first of two stories that take us into previously unexplored chapters in the life of Rick, Kitty's vampire friend. This is his origin story, and it takes place just a few decades after the previous story—in the mid-1500s. Rick, who was one of Coronado's soldiers, attempts to make a new life in the Americas but is waylaid by demonic vampires.
"The Book of Daniel" (Originally appeared in Talebones #39)
- In this supernatural take on the story of Daniel in the lion's den, Vaughn provides a surprising answer to the age-old question: Why didn't those ferocious beasts devour Daniel?
"The Temptation of Robin Green" (Originally appeared in The Mammoth Book of Paranormal Romance)
- In this story, a young woman falls in love with a sexy selkie who is imprisoned in the secret military laboratory where she works. This is the second "Rick" story; he is also a prisoner in the lab.
"Looking After Family" (Originally appeared in Realms of Fantasy)
- In her "Author's Notes," Vaughn calls this "Cormac and Ben's origin story." We see Cormac and Ben in their teen years, soon after Cormac moves in with Ben's family following the murder of his father by a werewolf.
"God's Creatures" (Originally appeared in Dark and Stormy Knights)
- This story follows Cormac as he hunts down a werewolf in the American West—just a typical day for Cormac.
"Wild Ride" (Originally appeared in Running with the Pack)
- Do you remember T. J.—the werewolf who befriended Kitty back at the beginning of the series and actually gave his life for her? This is his origin story—how and why he became a werewolf.
"Winnowing the Herd" (Originally appeared in Strange Horizons)
- This story takes place before The Midnight Hour and before Kitty was outed as a werewolf. Kitty has a lengthy interior monologue about prey as she socializes with her colleagues at a KNOB staff party.
"Kitty and the Mosh Pit of the Damned" (Originally appeared in Weird Tales #338)
- Taking place soon after Kitty was outed, this story finds Kitty at a hard-rock concert where a demon shows up to complicate matters for the band. I'd love to see Jax, the magical bartender, show up in a future KITTY novel.
"Kitty's Zombie New Year" (Originally appeared in Weird Tales #345)
- It was inevitable that zombies would appear somewhere in the KITTY world, and here we have one knocking on the door of a New Year's Eve party that Kitty is attending. But this zombie is not the plague-stricken zombie of familiar myth. Instead, she is the victim of mind control and drugs used to create zombie slaves. Be glad you don't have a boyfriend like she had.
"Life Is the Teacher" (Originally appeared in Hotter Than Hell)
- This story takes place after the events in Kitty Goes to Washington and describes what happens to Emma (Alette's living descendant) in the months following her unwilling changeover into a vampire. Of all the stories in the book, this one has the highest sensuality rating—a 4 for one relatively graphic sex scene.
"You're on the Air" (new story)
The star of this story is a vampire who calls in to Kitty's radio show in Kitty and the Silver Bullet. Jake is not the suave, sophisticated, wealthy vampire of paranormal fiction. He works for minimum wage on the night shift at Speedy Mart, and he's not happy about his life. A random street-crime incident gives him a chance to step up and be a real vampire.
"Long Time Waiting" (new story)
This is the key story in the book: the details about Cormac's relationship with a century-old female ghost/witch. Cormac is in prison, trying to keep it together until his release, when a demon begins murdering the inmates. Amelia (the ghost) begs Cormac to let her into his mind and body so that together they can defeat the demon, but Cormac is afraid that if he does, he'll lose his fragile hold on his sanity.
