On Sunday, Dec. 4, Nintendo launched new bundles featuring a pink Nintendo 3DS™portable system and either the nintendogs™ + cats: French Bulldog and New Friends or nintendogs + cats: Toy Poodle and New Friends software.
The limited-edition bundles are available at a suggested retail price of $169.99 in the U.S. – the same price as the standard Nintendo 3DS system. But these come WITH a game. Plus, they have pink! Yes, pink!
If you remember, we tried the 3DS over the summer, and thought it was cool. While the 3d features are great, I love that you can turn them off. The kids don't mind 3d, I get dizzy after a while (must be my old age). I still love me some Super Mario World though! Any DS game will work on the 3DS, although obviously if they aren't a 3D game you cannot play them in 3D mode.
I am so happy that Nintendo offers games like the nintendogs+cats games, because I think they are cute and fun and am always glad when violence is not included in games, particularly for children. I think there is plenty of violence and there's a place for everything- it doesn't have to be in games my kids play! There's a HUGE range of games and products to fit budgets and preferences with the Nintendo family.
If you have a someone on your list who loves pink and likes the idea of a DS, I'd be on the lookout for this limited edition pink 3DS bundle!! It's all kinds of awesome.
Not sure you want to go with the 3DS? Nintendo has a lot of other options for both the DS line and the Wii!
A note about the DSi XL: if you do buy this, and decide to go with a case or cover, be sure that what you are purchasing fits on the DSiXL- it has a larger size than other DS models. I highly, HIGHLY recommend when purchasing any DS or other portable game system that you do make sure to at least purchase a case for storage and travel, and cases for the games. There are a ton of options out there, from simple and basic to crazy fun, and everything in between. One of the first things we do when we have something like this is to get a protective case!! (Hey, we have kids…)
These new bundles join the already-extensive list of impressive limited-edition bundles that are now available. Each one is sure to find a recipient on everyone's shopping list:
· A The Legend of Zelda™: Skyward Sword bundle containing the just-launched game for the Wii™ system, a gold-colored Wii Remote™Plus controller and a CD with music from the series at a suggested retail price of $69.99 in the U.S.
· A Flame Red Nintendo 3DS system bundled with the just-launched Super Mario 3D Land™ game at a suggested retail price of $199.99 in the U.S.
· A Special Edition Nintendo 3DS system with the Hyrule emblem and gold-colored embellishments bundled with The Legend of Zelda™: Ocarina of Time™ 3D game at a suggested retail price of $199.99 in the U.S.
· A Metallic Rose or Midnight Blue Nintendo DSi XL™ system bundled with the Mario vs. Donkey Kong™: Mini-Land Mayhem! game at a suggested retail price of $169.99 in the U.S. (These also come with THREE pre-installed titles. So it is almost like getting the ds unit itself PLUS 4 games!! Not a bad deal!!)
I received samples of these products in exchange for my post. Opinions are my own.

Bad letter day for Aussie post staff
Christmas is always the hardest time of year for Australia Post - last year was its busiest ever thanks to the boom in online shopping.
As a result, staff are grateful for the modest bonus they usually receive when the government-owned business turns a profit. Last year, they got A$500 ($628) after Australia Post turned a A$241 million profit.
It was, chief executive Ahmed Fahour said, "a gesture of goodwill in recognition of employee performance".
This year, with a thumping profit of A$281m, staff expected something similar.
Instead the Communications Workers Union has branded Mr Fahour a Christmas Grinch, after he decreed the staff bonus would be a A$100 voucher - to be spent at Australia Post stores.
Adding insult to injury, full-time staff will also get in the mail 100 60¢ stamps (part-timers will miss out). The vouchers and stamps will, Mr Fahour said in a briefing to staff, begin arriving in the mail this week.
The Communications Workers Union said this year's Christmas bonus was a stark contrast to Fahour's own salary. He received A$2.77m last financial year, of which A$874,000 was a cash incentive payment. This incentive payment is, the union argues, a rather large bonus.
Asked about this year's bonus payment to staff, Australia Post's general manager of external affairs, Jane McMillan, said that while Australia Post had delivered strong results, "the outlook for the business remains challenging".
"Continued mail volume decline and the need to invest A$2 billion in our parcels and retail network means we will continue to keep our costs constrained," she said.
Joan Doyle, a state secretary of the Communication Workers Union's postal branch, said Fahour's bonus had increased by a third last financial year. Meanwhile, the Christmas bonus decided on for all of his staff would fall, in some cases by 80 per cent this year, Doyle said.
"Mr Fahour doesn't mind calling on our members to work harder and longer every year but when it comes to rewarding them he turns into the Christmas Grinch," Doyle said.
She said it was a "slap in the face" to Australia Post staff who were working their hardest in the lead-up to Christmas to not have this year's profit result recognised as it had been in previous years.

BOSTON—The Chicago Blackhawks are the Stanley Cup champions. That did not look like it would be the case with two minutes to go in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup finals.
Bryan Bickell and Dave Bolland scored 17 seconds apart to turn a sure trip back to Chicago into a championship, sending the Boston Bruins to a devastating 3-2 loss.
PHOTOS: The best shots of the finals | The best players
Milan Lucic's goal with 7:49 left in the third period had appeared to set up a winner-take-all game for Wednesday before the Blackhawks rallied with two goals from close range against Tuukka Rask, who could have been the playoff MVP if Boston had won the Cup.
Chicago becomes the first team to win the Cup twice in the salary cap era, while Boston rues a defeat that was reminiscent of the Bruins' own Game 7 comeback in the first round of the playoffs against the Toronto Maple Leafs, with two goals in the dying minutes to tie the game before an overtime winner from Patrice Bergeron.
Bickell got the Blackhawks even off a short pass from Chicago captain Jonathan Toews, who had five points —two goals and three assists—in the final three games of the series.

Bolland scored 17 seconds later off a rebound of a shot from Michael Frolik off the post, and 58.3 seconds after that, the Blackhawks had the Cup.
Lucic's goal came on a play that started with playoff scoring leader David Krejci getting the puck away from Blackhawks defenseman Duncan Keith behind the Chicago net. Krejci threw the puck toward the slot, where it bounced off the stick of Toews—the Selke Trophy winner as the best defensive forward in the league -- and dropped to Lucic, who beat Corey Crawford from close range.
Lucic's goal was his fourth of the series, tying teammate Bergeron for the lead in the finals. Bergeron, who went to the hospital with an undisclosed injury during Game 5, was back in Boston's lineup for Game 6, but was not a major factor. Toews, who sat out the third period on Saturday after suffering an apparent head injury, scored in the second period.
MORE: Duncan Keith brings baby on ice for celebration
Chris Kelly opened the scoring for Boston in a dominant first period in which Chicago was able to stay close only because of the efforts of Crawford, who made 11 of his 23 saves in that frame.
Rask made 28 saves for the Bruins, who now have an opportunity to repeat their feat from two years ago of erasing a 3-2 series deficit to win the Cup.
"TAZER" A STUNNER: Toews' goal was a sensational solo effort the Blackhawks even at 1-1 after Boston had dominated the early part of the game, but had been able to beat Crawford only once. It was technically an even-strength goal, but really was shorthanded as it beat Rask between the legs at the same moment that Shaw got out of the penalty box upon the completion of his roughing penalty.
Toews won a neutral-zone faceoff from Kelly on Chicago's defensive side of the ice after a whistle for a hand pass, and tipped the puck past Zdeno Chara to send himself on a 2-on-1 with Patrick Kane, the Conn Smythe winner as playoff MVP.
MORE: You won't believe what Bruins star played through
Unchecked, Toews, never even thought about passing before firing the shot that became his second goal and fourth point in three games following a three-game streak without a point and 10-game streak without a goal.
Michal Rozsival was initially credited with an assist, but that was taken away when video showed Toews was the only player to touch the puck the entire play.
THIRD'S THE WORD: Kelly, Seguin and Daniel Paille, and are nominally the third line for the Bruins, but produced top-line level offense in the finals.
Kelly's goal 7:19 into the game came off a pass across the slot from Seguin, who had gloved down the puck after Paille played it from the point. It was Kelly's second goal of the series, joining Paille, Bergeron, and Lucic as the only Bruins with multiple goals against the Blackhawks.
Paille's two goals were both game-winners for Boston, but Kelly's did not hold up thanks to Toews' equalizer in the second period. Paille had an excellent chance to score in the third period, but Crawford stuck his leg out for a brilliant pad save.
BLOOD ON THE ICE: Shaw made the right play to get his stick in front of Shawn Thornton's shot in the first period, but the result was all wrong for the Chicago forward, as the puck deflected up into his face, appearing to at least briefly knock him out cold on the ice.
Play was whistled down immediately, which irked Boston fans who saw Gregory Campbell skate on a broken leg during the Eastern Conference finals against the Pittsburgh Penguins, but NHL rules (specifically Rule 8.1) do allow referees to stop play "where it is obvious that a player has sustained a serious injury," which was definitely the case with Shaw. In Campbell's situation, there was no way to immediately know that he had a broken leg—it could have just been a stinger from blocking a shot.
Shaw somehow managed to return to the game, sporting fresh stitches as the second period began.
There was another whistle in the first period to stop play when Crawford took a shot off the mask, which came loose. The goaltender was allowed to adjust his equipment, again, as is allowed by the rules, before play resumed.
Scary stuff was not limited to the Blackhawks. Jaromir Jagr was limited to 3:03 in the first period after he sustained a facial injury that left him bleeding on the Boston bench and eventually drove him to the locker room. Jagr was back on the ice for the start of the second period, and took a shift, but then returned to the dressing room. Jagr then returned to the ice again in the third period.

Alex Boyar was a campus computer network manager. On Jan. 8, the FBI says he threatened to blow up Thornton Creek Elementary School in Novi unless a math test was canceled.
The FBI says Boyar's comment was posted at the bottom of an online news story about an earlier lockdown at the school. The FBI said in a court filing Monday that Novi police traced the threat to Boyar, who admitted he wrote it.
The Belleville resident told The Associated Press he was joking and had no plans for violence. He lost his job at University of Detroit Mercy because of the incident.

One of my favorite photos of my dad is in his WWII uniform, standing proudly next to my mom.
Pops Freedman served his country proudly for four years, so it's only fitting that Veterans Day on Monday is followed by Bernard Irving Freedman's 95th birthday on Tuesday.
Obviously, the once-long list of WWII survivors shrinks daily. But the old man continues strong, recalling the most minute detail of almost everything that happened during those four years.
It came to a near-end on April 25, 1945, when about 32,000 prisoners were liberated by the U.S. Army. at Dachau, which was the first concentration camp.
A few days later, my dad was handed a camera and asked to document via photographs the remains of the deceased.
I asked him how difficult the assignment was.
"After you see the first 50 bodies, it wasn't so bad," he said.
Pops smiled. I'm sure he was lying. Fact, looking back, I know he was. I found that book of photos in his closet years ago when we lived in Concord.
Maybe that's why he didn't care to describe it. Because words can't.
While dad never received a Purple Heart or any other such medal, that one gruesome assignment alone makes him a hero to me.
He's far from alone, of course. War brings out the courage in many. And it doesn't take a Spielberg movie to convince most Americans.
So on Monday, take a moment and acknowledge those who have fought for your freedom, be they relatives, friends, your neighbors or complete strangers.
It just might be a nice respite from complaining about the election, the economy, your favorite sports team, or the neighbor's dog relieving itself on your front lawn.
All things considered, it's not so bad, is it?
And if you want to send a few words to my old man, by golly, go right ahead. Email him at: email@example.com.
As we continue ...
BUCK OFF ... Vallejo has a Dollar Store. And a 98 cent store. But now -- trumpets, please -- comes a 97 cent store on Sonoma Boulevard. Soon, there will be a "Ah, Hell, Just Take It!" store.
HEAD OF CLASS ... In order of the state of the education system, perhaps a discounted barber shop run by students should open with the name "Budget Cuts." Yes, and if you cut yourself doing someone's hair, you go on permanent disability. This is how I use my time. You?
CHRISTMAS RAP ... What says Napa more than Snoop Dogg? Yes, the Dogg man himself appears at the Uptown Theatre on Dec. 14, bringing his "High for the Holidays" tour to town. OK, I made the name up. Perhaps more accurately, "Contact High for the Holidays."
CHILLY DOGS ... The Humane Society of the North Bay received some donated blankets Friday, compliments of Kaiser Permanente. No, there wasn't a co-pay. Or even a co-spay, wise guy.
SLOW COUNT ... From January until last week, the web site dogsagainstromney.com had 1,299,620 visitors. With President Obama ahead by barely more than 2 million votes, seems mutts against Mitt showed some punch. Especially the boxers. Anyway, it could be New Year's before Florida figures it out. Elderly Jewish couples are still squabbling. "Vote next Tuesday?" "Your neck hurts Tuesday?"


text: WVC football: UC hopes to bounce back today vs. Fairmont State By Tommy R. Atkinson September 28, 2012 Story Share The University of Charleston must accomplish something today it hasn't done in awhile.The Golden Eagles, who just saw their seven-game winning streak snapped, must now try to bounce back with a West Virginia Conference victory against Fairmont State at noon today at UC Stadium.UC (3-1 overall, 1-1 WVC) squandered several chances last week to knock off perennial power Shepherd and suffered a 16-10 loss, its first setback since Oct. 15, 2011 (a 52-14 loss to UNC Pembroke)."We've got a tough one this week and we've got to try to turn the page and get ready,'' said Golden Eagles second-year coach Pat Kirkland. "I've been happy with the way they've practiced this week. I told our coaches the best thing we can do is watch the film [on Shepherd], put it to bed and get those mistakes we made against Shepherd corrected. I think we've done a nice job of addressing that.''UC is superior to Fairmont State (1-3, 1-1) in nearly every statistical category, but the Falcons are coming in with momentum after securing their first win of the season last week, a 25-20 home victory against West Liberty."I think we learned that last year, you win a game and it gets the players rejuvenated,'' Kirkland said. "I thought after watching the West Liberty film they're going to be hungry. We've got to be at our best.''The Golden Eagles are ranked third in the league in scoring offense (26 points per game) and second in total offense (362 yards) and tops in rushing offense (209 yards).UC is also first in total defense, yielding the fewest yards per game at 274.5, and pass defense (142.5), abd ranks second in scoring defense (17.5 points) and sacks (13).Fairmont State ranks next-to-last in offense, putting up just 15.8 points per game. Falcons quarterback Bobby Vega, though, is second in the league in passing with 939 yards and six touchdowns against seven interceptions and leads in total offense, averaging 218.8 yards per contest. "Their record's not indicative of what they have talent-wise,'' said Kirkland. "I think they've got talent especially on the offensive side of the ball. We've got to do a good job and make sure we don't give them any home-run plays this week.''Kirkland is hoping his players are closer to 100 percent than the previous couple of weeks.UC starting quarterback Maurice Leak returned last week from a high ankle sprain but completed just 13 of 33 passes versus Shepherd. Kirkland said Leak, who only participated in 35 of UC's 65 plays against the Rams, is still day-to-day.Golden Eagles All-America running back Jordan Roberts, who needs 102 yards to set the school record for career rushing yards, is nearing 100 percent after a bout with flu-like symptoms. He was limited to 20 yards on the ground against the Rams.Roberts still leads the conference in all-purpose yardage, averaging 149.2 yards per game, and is second in rushing with 391 yards for a 5.9 average and three TDs. nn The road hasn't been kind to West Virginia State.The Yellow Jackets (1-3, 0-1) hope to end a 20-game losing streak away from home when they visit Seton Hill (0-4, 0-2) at noon today.The Griffins, who seem ripe for the picking, and State have alternated wins and losses since 2007, with the Jackets winning 27-21 last year in Institute.This isn't your usual Seton Hill team, though."[They have a] new offensive coordinator and [they're] spreading the ball all over the place,'' said State coach Earl Monroe, who watched his team miss an opportunity to knock off defending WVC champion Concord last week, losing 20-16. "They're big up front [and have] athletic receivers."Any time they spread you out and throw the football you've got to defend the perimeter and be sure tacklers. We've got to be on our toes and make sure we know our assignments on both sides of the football.'' The Griffins are the only winless team in the league and own a six-game losing streak dating back to last year. Seton Hill fell at West Virginia Wesleyan 41-17 last week.State and Seton Hill both rank near the bottom of most team offensive and defensive categories.Yellow Jackets running back Aubura Taylor is second in the league in all-purpose yards (144.8 per game) and fourth in rushing (201 yards, two TDs). State's defense has caused some havoc with Durelle Evans tied for first with two interceptions while Wenley Beliard is first in fumbles forced (two) and fumbles recovered (three).The Griffins' Tyler Zimmer is tops in the league in sacks with seven.In other games today, Concord (2-2, 1-1) visits Shepherd (3-1, 1-0) at noon in a showdown of the WVC's last two conference champions, West Liberty (2-2, 1-1) hosts Glenville State (1-3, 1-0) at 1 p.m. and West Virginia Wesleyan (1-3) and Urbana (Ohio) tangle at 1 p.m. in a nonconference matchup.Reach Tommy R.

Tales of Keighley's policing past are to be showcased to the public thanks to a new lottery fund.
Amateur historians have been given an All Our Stories grant of £9,900 to research and present the material.
Keighley and District Local History Society will work on the Keighley Police Archive, which is kept in the town's civic centre.
The centre, in the former Keighley police station in North Street, houses a police museum in the old cells.
The history society has become one of the first groups in the UK to receive a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund's All Our Stories scheme.
The grant scheme, launched in support of BBC2's The Great British Story, was designed to give everyone a chance to get involved in their heritage.
In Keighley, society members will work with young people, former police officers and other local people to develop media and communications skills.
Society chairman Andy Wade said: "This grant will allow us to start making an important part of our past accessible to the people of Keighley.
"We are all really looking forward to working on the project and hope a wide range of people and community groups will benefit."
Fiona Spiers, head of the Heritage Lottery Fund in Yorkshire and the Humber, said the success of All Our Stories showed the UK was a nation of storytellers who wanted to dig deeper into their past.

Playoff-chasing Keys must overcome fired-up Neath
8:43am Saturday 29th March 2014
8:43am Saturday 29th March 2014
CROSS Keys know that they will have to overcome a hungry, desperate Neath side if they are to keep their bid for the Premiership playoffs on track, writes Chris Kirwan.
The fifth-placed Pandy Park outfit are in a tussle with the Scarlets clubs of Llanelli, Llandovery and Carmarthen Quins for the two semi-finals spots behind table-toppers and champions Pontypridd.
Keys, who will face the Drovers in the last four of the Swalec Cup, have their destiny in their own hands but cannot afford to slip up against their struggling hosts at the Gnoll today.
They have already beaten Neath twice this season, 27-10 in the league and 23-17 in the Swalec Cup, but the Welsh All Blacks will not be lacking motivation as they are just five points above bottom club Swansea.
Keys will be looking for Dragons flanker Ieuan Jones to add some oomph in the ball-carrying stakes and for their pack, who have been playing well of late, to allow in-form fly-half Dorian Jones to pull the strings.
Sixth-placed Bedwas will be looking to keep the heat on the teams above them by winning their three successive games against struggling teams from the Ospreys region.
Bottom club Swansea visit Bridge Field this afternoon before encounters with Neath and Bridgend and head coach Steve Law will look for his pack to maintain their impressive form to keep their slim playoff hopes alive.
Cross Keys: J Cordy-Redden, N Williams, L Andrews (captain), A James, E Jones, D Jones, R James, R Cornock, D Hughes, C Gould, D Hodge, S Andrews, I Jones, R Tucker, A Powell. Replacements: L Garrett, H Palmer, A Lott, T Lampard, J Condy, O Jones, A O'Brien, N Trowbridge.
Bedwas: H Thomson, S Cullen, L Hudd, A Humberstone, R Budina, R Powell, R Downes, I George, R Hutcherson, M Pettit, P Rees, J Thomas, S Grainger (captain), J Sawyer, D Mattravers. Replacements: J Mills, D Preece, R Wilkes, J Davies, D Crimmins, L Crane, S Williams, S Thomas.
Ebbw Vale need just 12 points to secure promotion to the Premiership but the Steelmen want more than just the inevitable Championship title.
Jason Stange's team want to head back to the top flight on the back of a perfect season and it's so far, so good. Ebbw have triumphed 18 times from 18 fixtures and will look to extend that run at Tata Steel this afternoon.
At the other end of the table Blackwood are in dire need of some points in their tussle with Bonymaen and Beddau to avoid the drop.
Today the bottom club make the short trip to Gwent rivals Pontypool, who need to win to keep alive their hopes of finishing second.
Mid-table Newbridge aren't completely out of the woods but one more win should do it and they will hope to edge closer to safety with a success against Narberth at the Welfare Ground.

The Top 10 Best Nintendo Wii Games For 2011
Let's not mince words here: The Nintendo Wii has been the most influential machine this video game generation. Sure, it only packs the power equivalent of two Gamecubes duct-tapped together, but the Nintendo Wii's groundbreaking motion controls enticed gamers and non-gamers alike to get off their duffs and jump around. In fact, The Wii's influence can be seen in the Kinect and PlayStation Move.
The Nintendo Wii's video game library has a sharp focus on the casual and family-friendly sector of the gaming population. You may not find many hardcore games, but you will plenty of titles designed to get you off your behind such as ABBA: You Can Dance, Just Dance 3, and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, which lets you make protagonist Link swing his sword by swinging your Wii MotionPlus controller.
Although the games in this feature are distributed on physical discs, the Nintendo Wii—like the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360—has a deep digital download library. Virtual Console is where you can download and play retro video games—even titles from non-Nintendo systems such as the Commodore 64 or Turbo Grafx-16. WiiWare is the showcase for original downloadable titles such as Gradius ReBirth.
If you're ready to Wii game, check out the ten titles (in alphabetical order) in our slideshow, which covers the dance, action, sports, and shooting titles will be red hot this holiday season.

Hi everyone,
I've baked Roses's Moist Chocolate Genoise 3 times, and every time the lower portion of the cake was much denser than the upper portion. The recipe calls for lots of water, whisked with melted chocolate and i think the water makes the egg foam bottom heavy. For all attempts I whip the egg and sugar foam on high speed for more than 10 minutes with my kitchenaid mixer. I get a very stable foam to which I add the flour and water-chocolate mixture. I made sure the liquid water-chocolate got folded in homogenously before baking. But everytime the cake bottom is always much denser. Can anyone help?
