Leave Cancun and Acapulco behind and instead travel to Puerto Vallarta, located right along the Pacific Ocean. This Mexican paradise offers visitors a dozen sandy, sun-kissed beaches, plenty of colorful festivals and celebrations, tropical jungles to explore and many a mountainside to traverse. Don't forget to add trips to this relatively young city's many beautiful churches, local fish markets and snorkeling sites for a taste of local life. Use our Puerto Vallarta travel guide to plan the perfect trip to this gorgeous town and prepare for the vacation of a lifetime.
Things Not to Miss in Puerto Vallarta
• Visit Los Arcos Marine Natural Area and snorkel in the city's crystalline waters, which stay warm nearly year round
• Explore the Ixtapa Archeological Zone, a historical site dating back more than a thousand years
• Smell the roses (and orchids and marigolds) at the Vallarta Botanical Gardens
• While the day away at any one of the city's spas and resorts
• Take to the water on a jet ski or take to the sky on a paraglider
• Stroll through the Zona Romantica, or Old Town, and take in its many restaurants, bars and cafés
• Purchase the catch of the day at the fish market in the Lázaro Cardenas neighborhood
• Breathe the ocean air while walking along the Malecón boardwalk
When to Go to Puerto Vallarta
Puerto Vallarta is known for its tropical wet and dry climate, meaning rainy summers (especially in the month of August) and relatively dry winters. The ideal time to plan your Puerto Vallarta travel itinerary is during the dry season, which starts in November and lasts until April. At this time of year, daytime temperatures hover in the 80s while the nights tend to be cool and pleasant in the mid-60s. And remember, no matter what time of year you visit Puerto Vallarta, the water is nearly guaranteed to be warm.

Twisted Fate Build
Ability Sequence
Hello I am kxis.
I am from server Europe west and i want to start write some guides from all the champions which i like to play for help newest player like other player support me with them guides.
why we play twisted?
Usually i like heroes which can support and hit hard with twisted fate we have all of that our skills has a lot of range and good dps when we arrieve at 6, with Destiny, we start to play for real, till that moment we need to be carefull and have patience, for that we only need to farm and disturb the enemy, if we can kill him good if not we only need to wait, because at 6 ( Destiny) we can start to jump to any place where our members needs help, maybe secure a gank or help with one. The most important thing with twisted , and we need to has that on our mind all the time, its the life, twisted hasn't good amount of life then play safe to win. Our mana if we do well with W ( Pick A Card) and doran's ring Doran's Ring every minions farmed give us 4 mana plus W ( Pick A Card) when we can play it. These things and more i am going to talk later
Summoner's spells
Now its time to speak about the summoner's spells, usually, i play with flash Flash and ignite Ignite, but sometimes i try with barrier Barrier and teleport Teleport or ignite Ignite and teleport Teleport, it isn't bad idea, we have more mobility to support or partners, but without flash Flash and twisted's speed, we need to be secure we'll have a good chance or we won't run far away. All summoner's spells depend about our kind of play i invite you to try all form as you can play. But no worries with te first times twisted its difficult we need to be fast to select cards Pick A Card, react to opponent's actions. And be patience with him, until we have a good knowledge of his skills and times to attack, active skills and cds. But if you are ready come and meet twisted
High range Q (
Slow cds Q( Wild Cards), W( Pick A Card).
Damage Q( Wild Cards), W blue card ( Pick A Card).
Good vision and teleport R( Destiny).
Nice passive ( Loaded Dice).
Slow movement
Low life
We need fast reactions
becarefull with the beginning
Usually its a nice idea start wih W ( Pick A Card) we have stun, slow and mana regen. and with those skills we can stop jungle and take some control with our rival,but don't forget we need to play safe twisted fate doesn't have life. Sometimes i started with Q ( Wild Cards) because the other mid hero has more range or its counter its a good idea BUT pay atention with the mana.
When we are lvl 2 we play Wild Cards because with Pick A Card are a good combo, we can play many different ways (stun/q to hit enemy, mana regen to minion,tower or hero/q to hit enemy or minions, red card minions or tower/q hit enemy) if i go vs the tower i play with blue card because i can retunr mana an hit hard. With Q ( Wild Cards) use for poke the enemy and every 4 hits if we can hit the enemmy's hero we can hit hard and make better poke.
One of the most easy thing with twisted its we only play with 3 buttons for use skills, without the ulti only 2, but we need to pay atention with the hits of our basics attacks and our W ( Pick A Card) because we need to try to mixed all we can for make more damage, thats why we need to react fast with him.
Our ulti ( Destiny) its very nice. We can show all the enemy team and after teleport where we want or where our team needs us all depends from the situation.
One thing more we won't forget we have good range, then we need to explode that fact because is how we can win our lane. Our problem its our Q( Wild Cards) we don't throw all with same direction we need to pay attention to the position of our enemies to make all the damage as we can, like in the team fights we need to wait the best momento to active our Q ( Wild Cards) for hit as member as we can hit.
9 Glyph of sacaling ability power => Because i want to stay on the line with any problems with the dps, twisted fate has good amount but i help for have a good beginning and dont need any item before i need it
9 Seal of scaling health => twisted has a low health and i want more for don't be worry with any gank or one mid with good damage or some with burn life like brando or cassio
9mark of magic penetration => wtih those runes we can enjoy more our skills during the beginning and some mid with magic resist like galio or tank with good amount of armor
3 Quint of Abily power => like this i have some ap to start with doran's ring or without and make some damage
i play one 21/09/00
21 points
1Summoner's warth i like that mastery beacuse that one point its better that spend it on mental force because when we use ignite we win 5 of ap for one point with mental force for 1 point 2 ap
4 Sorcery => for have some cdr and use better every skill.
4 Blast => has more damage every level i have, thats its a nice idea for have a larg moment with the begenning and don't pay atention with the items then we have more time for farm better.
3 Havock => With it we can have more damage then our skills are more dangerous at the beginning.
1 Arcane knowledge => We have more magic penetration then we can enjoy better our skills because we have 8% plus all the marks.
2 Mental force => We need all the damage as is possible to have.
1Spellsowrd => like this our basics attacks has more damage and with our finall build we really bite them hard.
4 Archmage => like this our ap grows up better.
1 Executioner => when we need finish we have some extradamage.
9 points
4Durability => we need all the health as is possible and that mastery works well with our glyphs.
1 Hardiness => our basic armor its very low and how we works on mid i prefer to spend 1 point here (Optional if someone wants can place 2 points here and 2 on resitance)
3 Resistance => We work vs magic attacks then we need to protec ourselves from enemy's skills to take more time on the line.
1Veteran's scars => we have like this more heatlh
Well about the items we have some forms to play twisted twisted fated with an interesting consequence. I play many different ways but which i like more its how i'm showing here.
Early game.
I like to start with Doran's Ring and Health Potion, with Doran's Ring we have mana regen, life and ap, full item for twisted, the only bad point its we can't run but with our range and our skills, during the beggining we don't need a lot of speed, if we have flash and ] or or any similar jungler who can jump on us early, we can flash and run away, or play our W ( Pick A Card) and choose stun to stop one of them. but during rest of the game we can play good using our W ( Pick A Card) to farm and recover mana and Q ( Wild Cards) to poke our rival. Don't forget to build the catalyst for obtain a good sustain and resist all the time is posible on the line. One more thing to have a nice beginning its ask for help to our jungle always we can and he can, if we can feed ourself soon, we really will be a problem when we have our ulti Destiny before other lanes we'll have two jungler instead of 1, and we'll support better our partners and the match.
When we return to base first time by die or because we need it, first buy Boots of Speed and don't forget to build the catalyst the protector to obtain a good sustain to be all the time as is posible on the lane, if we can buy full boots ( Sorcerer's Shoes) better than normals twisted has a nice dps with magic pen., after we'll come to the lane and try to kill our enemy, but for that we need sight ward on the grass to have some control on the river, and our jungle has a good help with that. A nice idea its hit him every 4 hits with blue card Pick A Card and our passive Stacked Deck or stun Pick A Card (yellow) card plus passive Stacked Deck. Now the good question it is if we need blue or not. All depend about the game, if we have a game where we are playing without problems with our mana leave it to the jungle always its a good gift to him but if we have problems go take it and use it for poke more the opponent and farm more fast, but taking care about the minions to don't push a lot.
middle game:
Here we have lvl 6 for sure, some items and if the games goes well we have some advantage. If we have some normal game we need to build fast Rabadon's Deathcap, we'll have a lot of damage and with our Sorcerer's Shoes we start to be a threat, to me its very importan to build Rod of Ages, some people doesn't like that item from my point of view its very interesting but if you don't want to play it build Rylai's Crystal Scepter. When our ulti Destiny its ready say to the team and ask where they need help or maybe try to help jungler with any gank to secure that death and show to the partners where they are. After Rabadon's Deathcapwe need to start to take the final build usually i play with Lich Bane, Deathfire Grasp and Zhonya's Hourglass because that items has ap, cdr, armor and extra damage.
late game
That part its the most dangerous in my point of view because here we can have any opponent feed or the best way one partner feed. And our problem its our life ,for that reason we need to have stacked the Rod of Ages or who plays Rylai's Crystal Scepter you need to have build it because we need to resist a little. If we have Lich Bane and Zhonya's Hourglass we have a good chance to help and resist, not very much some yes. But in this part our Lich Bane and our ulti Destiny are very important and if we have Teleport we'll be so dangerous because we can break towers soon, with blue card ( Pick A Card) and lich's skills our damage its high, if we only have our ulti Destiny only we can't waste how we want then we need to wait one moment to make a good backdoor or try to steal baron. Deathfire Grasp its good when we want to kill an enemy soon, then only use to kill enemy's threat and make more easy team fights. About Zhonya's Hourglass we need to know how goes the game to know when we can play because never we can play two situations alike, then all depend from our movements and enemy's movements.
Usually i use W blue card ( Pick A Card) for farm and doesn't waste mana. When we have Stacked Deck we can see how we have less problems for ks minions and every 4 hits we can hit enemy's hero or ks more faster the minions usually i prefer to hit them and has our line near my tower and no very pushed and close to the enemy's tower.
Also we need to know our better card =P its farme because every minion we farm give us more money ( Loaded Dice) then we has more money if we do well than our rival. For that until lvl 6 try to be farming and poke enemy's hero.
Now its time to talk about that kind of characters who can counter our twisted fate, all has some similar, large range, hard burst or very fast with skills
Large range
- : with him Q has a nice range and with the heart she can give us some problems, without any doubt her ulti is very dangerous vs twisted.
-Heimmerdinger: with towers and bombs has a lot of problems.
- : her slow and her prision works very hard with the jungle and her ulti its very dangerous.
- : Has a good range, we need to be carefull with his stun and his ulti can break all our health.
- : his skills has a good range and his ulti can kill a good number of our partners if the player knows how to play.
- : Its the perfect assasin, fast and strong, he can cath us with his Tidal/Trickster or evade our skills, after with his q Urchin Strike and w Seastone Trident can burn our health.
- : has a good movement speed with the ulti Spirit Rush and hit hard if we are close to her.
- : Stealth Twilight Shroud good speed and skill for hit far and jump to you Shadow Dance.
- : Its dangerous he can jump to us silence cutthroat and hit hard Noxian Diplomacy, with his ulti can hit us hard Shadow Assault
- : Becarfull with his passive Blaze he can burn our life and after come to kill us so hard.
- : She has a lot of dps can burn our life Noxious Blast Miasma and after stun us Petrifying Gaze so hard play soo defensive and with large distance.
- : Ap killer Primordial Burst don't let him farm Baleful Strike or the match is lost because with his ulti Primordial Burst can delete instant with him combo.
- : its hard game with the stun every 4 hits Pyromania, and her passive plus ulti Summon: Tibbers terrible stun. Play safe and don't let her to be near you.

Its too bad she didnt get attacked by a bear, then the shrieking would have stopped much earlier!
This isn't his fault. He kept distance, speed was all right. She is totally under ''husband pressure'', she doesn't even know basics of trail riding, but it's important she is faster than you, because her kit is brand new.

CAIRO: Minister of Agriculture and Land Reclamation Adel al-Beltagy warned Tuesday that the Nile Delta, the most fertile agricultural region in Egypt, would disappear within 60 years if rampant land encroachment continues.
The minister's statement came during the launching of a national campaign by the Agriculture Ministry to counter encroachment on fertile land.
"The past three years of political unrest and public turmoil have negatively impacted the agricultural acreage and 150,000 feddans (155,700 acres) have been encroached upon," Beltagy said.
He added that the total area of agricultural land in Egypt is about 8.6 million feddans, and that "Egypt had lost 150,000 feddans in recent years due to urban encroachment on fertile agriculture land."
"Losing agricultural lands may cause political and social tension in Egypt," Beltagy said, stressing that "nearly 42 percent of the population depends on agriculture."
Head of the Central Administration of Lands Protection Saied Attiah told the Sabah Al-Kheir Ya Masr program on March 9 that violations have targeted over 1 million acres of land in Egypt since the 2011 January 25 Revolution.
He added, "Those who build on agricultural land and pollute the Nile are considered more dangerous than terrorists," and said there are laws that ban these kinds of violations. Violators of these laws are subject to fines between 10,000 EGP ($1 398.11) and 50,000 EGP in addition to the removal of the violations at their expense.
Qena Governor Abdel Hameed el-Hagan announced March 20 that the governorate removed 600 violations on agricultural and state lands between March 1-15, ONA reported.
"Protecting agricultural lands in all governorates is a national obligation that all citizens should cooperate on with the government and local authorities," Minister of Local Development Adel Labib said in a Friday press release.
The Central Administration to Protect Lands said in an April report that the number of violations that targeted farmland reached 763,685 cases on areas estimated at 32,346 acres, according to Al-Ahram.
The report added that officials managed to remove 78,867 cases on 4,551 acres, and according to the administration, Menoufia has the biggest proportion of violations with 99,728 cases.

A daylong conference at the University of Georgia on Friday will focus on urban sprawl and the toll it is taking on rural areas.
Part of the conference will focus specifically on the Athens area.
The event is the 12th annual Red Clay Conference, an environmental law symposium sponsored by the UGA Law School's Environmental Law Association.
The event is free and open to the public, and includes a free lunch for those who pre-register at the law school's web site.
''Growth-related issues are at the forefront of local, state and national politics,'' said UGA law student Chris Sinclair, president of the Environmental Law Association. ''They are real concerns that impact our quality of life. This year's Red Clay Conference has a joint goal: to inform the general public about environmental issues affecting them and how their voices can be heard, and to provide attorneys with knowledge of legal tools involved in development and conservation efforts.''
Lawyers attending the conference can earn up to five hours of continuing legal education credit.
After a welcome by Athens-Clarke Mayor Doc Eldridge, four sessions of panel discussions will follow in the law school's Dean Rusk Hall beginning at 10 a.m., 11:30 a.m., 1:45 p.m. and 3:15 p.m.
Topics include transportation and air quality, environmental justice, the economics of sprawl, local issues in Athens, zoning issues, and Gov. Roy Barnes' greenspace program.
Speakers will include people from the Sierra Club, the Georgia Conservancy, the state Department of Natural Resources, the Southern Environmental Law Center and numerous other organizations.
The luncheon keynote address comes at 1 p.m., when Robert Bullard talks about racism and the environment. Bullard is the Ware Professor of Sociology and director of the Environmental Justice Resource Center at Clark Atlanta University.

A portion of the sales revenue from the new red iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus is to go to the AIDS-fighting organization Red, with which Apple has collaborated for more than a decade.
Apple had originally made colors varied from rose gold, gold, silver, black and jet black.
Apple chief Tim Cook said in a statement that Apple customers have already made a significant impact in fighting the spread of the virus through the purchase of other special-edition Apple gadgets benefiting the charity.
Red raises money through the sale of branded products for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, which invests in local programmes to end those diseases.
Apple is the world's largest corporate donor to the Global Fund, having contributed more than 130 million dollars through its partnership with the organization, Red chief Deborah Dugan said.
The special-edition iPhones according to him will be available to order online worldwide and in stores beginning on March 24.

Starting role for Morrison
Graeme Morrison will make his first start for Glasgow Warriors since October against Italian side Benetton Treviso in their RaboDirect PRO12 encounter at Scotstoun on Friday.
Morrison, back to full fitness following his knee injury, made a substitute appearance in the Heineken Cup against Castres at the start of December and will form part of a reshuffled back-line from last week's win away at Edinburgh.
One of four changes to the starting XV in total, he lines up alongside Alex Dunbar, who is also making his return from injury. Tommy Seymour is restored to the wing in place of Sean Maitland while Stuart Hogg retains his place at full-back, while Ruaridh Jackson starts at stand-off for the fourth game in a row, with Henry Pyrgos partnering him at half-back.
DTH van der Merwe, who became the club's leading league try-scorer with a double against Edinburgh at Scotstoun, keeps his spot on the left wing.
With back-to-back wins against Edinburgh in the bag, Warriors are looking to make it three in a row against a Treviso side who are on a winning run, having triumphed twice in their own local derby against Zebre over the festive period.
Glasgow head coach Gregor Townsend said: "It's fantastic to have Graeme and Alex back starting for the team and it gives us yet more options in the midfield to add to an already deep list of talent.
"Alex was in fine form until he suffered his injury and it will be great to see him getting back to that level of performance. Everyone knows exactly what kind of influence Graeme can have on a match and against a tough side like Treviso, it's great to have someone of his experience at inside-centre.
"The selection this week again highlights the quality available to us as coaches and the fact that even with three changes to the back-line, it's still a very strong line-up."
There are minimal changes in the pack, with the heavy-hitting back row of Rob Harley, Josh Strauss and last week's man of the match, Ryan Wilson, again reunited.
In the second row, Tim Swinson comes in for Tom Ryder to partner captain Al Kellock. Ryan Grant, Doug Hall and Moray Low, hugely impressive in the scrum against Edinburgh, will again pack down together for the tough Treviso test.

An awful miss you won't have seen: Lasse Kryger (Frederica) v Hvidovre
A big shout out to MrFootballVideos for sending us this one as we weren't following today's games in the Danish Viasat Divisionen (second division to you and me) as closely as we perhaps should have.
Fredericia striker Lasse Kryger is the star of the show with one of those head in hand moments we love to laugh at. For those that are interested Frederica emerged 3-1 winners but Kryger failed to find the net.
Enjoy one of the worst misses of 2010 on this video.

Ares Games and Gremlin Project announce new Sword & Sorcery board game
Legendary heroes fight the forces of evil in a new fantasy cooperative game designed by the team who created Galaxy Defenders
July 26th, 2015 – Heroes with unique powers are called back from death to save the kingdom and break the spell that binds their souls, in the new game developed by Gremlin Project and due to be published by Ares Games in 2016: Sword and Sorcery, an epic-fantasy cooperative board game, where one to five players fight together against the forces of evil, controlled by the game system itself.
Each player controls one or more heroes – legendary characters brought back to life by powerful sorcery. Weakened by the resurrection, they grow stronger during their story-driven quests. By acquiring soul points during missions, the heroes' souls regenerate, restoring their legendary status with multiple powers, magic and soul weapons, and powerful artifacts.
Designed by Gremlin Project (the same team who created Galaxy Defenders), Sword & Sorcery's game system represents the perfect evolution of its forerunner. Gameplay is faster and dynamic, thanks to an innovative area movement and area control system, with new features never seen before in a game of this category.
Key features of Galaxy Defenders are also preserved in Sword & Sorcery – such as the advanced AI system for monsters, a high degree of character customization, and the multiple tactical options during battles. Sword and Sorcery packs, in a top-quality board game format, all the excitement of the best MMORPGs and action RPGs, to provide the ultimate heroic fantasy board game adventure.
Sword & Sorcery – Immortal Souls, the first set using the new system, will be launched on Kickstarter in September, and it is due to release in the second half of 2016. See the video teaser and stay tuned for updated information on the game's website – http://www.sword-and-sorcery.com/ and on the Sword & Sorcery Board Game Facebook page.

Girls are born with the inherent and inalienable rights of all human beings. They are also born with the unique rights of childhood which will enable them to reach their full potential as individuals and members of society.
In too many parts of the world, girls experience "apartheid of gender". Beginning from birth their fundamental rights are denied and violated. The low value placed on girls subjects them to exclusion, exploitation and violence. Lack of access to education and adequate health care, sexual abuse, female genital cutting, and too early child bearing are some obstacles that impede their full development and deprive millions of girls of the opportunity to play a productive and equal role in their societies. Today, the scourge of HIV/AIDS disproportionately effects girls in many parts of the world with increasingly destructive effects on their societies. In situations of armed conflict girls are frequent and deliberate targets of systematic rape, abduction and murder. Even in some refugee camps where they have sought protection, they are too often exploited.
Girls are the women of tomorrow. Too often the deprivations and inequalities suffered by them are accepted as their preparation for womanhood. The continuity of traditional inequities will make it impossible for girls and women to contribute to the fundamental changes needed for creating more equitable societies and sustainable development.
In preparation for CSW 57 (2012) 'The elimination and prevention of all forms of violence against women and girls' the Working Group on girls created 10 new advocacy sheets for use during the commission. 10 Sheets – 10 issues addressing 10 ways in which girls experience discrimination and violence.

MANILA - It seems like President Rodrigo Duterte is not the only president who believes there are ghosts in Malacañang.
In a column in the Philippine Daily Inquirer, paranormal expert Jaime Licauco said that in 1982, then-President Ferdinand Marcos asked him to go to Malacañang to ask him about paranormal activity and faith healers.
He also shared that Marcos told him about seeing the ghost of President Manuel Quezon's barber "walking inside the palace."
"And one time, both Imee and Irene also saw the ghost and started running in fear," Licauco recalled Marcos saying.
Licauco is the author of several best-selling books on
ghosts, soul mates, karma, reincarnation, and psychic powers. He lectures on past-life regression, hypnotherapy, and the powers of the inner mind.

Former First Lady Imelda Marcos also told Licauco that she knew about the ghost of Quezon's barber, adding that her late husband was able to talk to the ghost.
According to Licauco, other presidents have also talked about the spirits and ghosts in the palace, but some of them, like former president and now Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada, dismissed the stories.
"He said that in his (Estrada) two-year stay at the Palace, he never once encountered or saw any ghosts there," he said.
After he was elected president, Duterte said he would not sleep with Palace "ghosts."
"Nandoon lahat ng multo na dumaan sa Pilipinas. Maglalakad sila, magkokomperensiya, eh di sila doon. Tutal, past tense naman tayo. They're still there and sometimes they'll hold a conference, well let them,"
Duterte chose not to live in the Palace. When in Manila, he lives in Bahay Pangarap, which is in Malacanang Park across the Palace.
It was restored by Architect Francisco Mañosa during the Ramos administration. It was demolished and rebuilt in 2008 by architect Conrad Onglao.
Bahay Pangarap now has a "contemporary style (retaining the basic shape of the roof as a nod to the previous historic structure), replacing, as well, the Commonwealth-era swimming pool and pergolas with a modern swimming pool," the Palace website says.
Ghostly sightings of former Presidents Manuel Quezon, Manuel Roxas and Ramon Magsaysay have been reported in the centuries-old Palace by the Pasig River.
The structure is also reportedly haunted by ghosts of World War II casualties.
Palace employees, likewise, said they have seen a woman dressed in a black dress looking out the window at the Pasig River, or seated at one of the desks. They would also recount hearing sounds of moving chairs, sounds of typing, or children playing.
The men's restroom on the third floor of Mabini Hall is also reportedly haunted by a boy, "who crouches in a corner with his head bent."

A Ton Of Sequels Abide Of Final Fantasy Cosplayposted on 13 Dec 2012 09:41 by emma1989
I Supposed that there are abundant added followers to play video amateur globally at present compared with antecedent years. Final Fantasy is, whether you like it or not, the premiere name in RPG's in the video bold world. The alternation was created by artist Hironobu Sakaguchi at a time if he anticipation he was done with designing games. Hit bold activates Final Fantasy Cosplay audibly for gamers and cosplayers. The bold was named, literally, for what he anticipation would be his final project, which just so happened to be a fantasy appearance role arena game. He was partially aggressive by Dragon Quest, which is a appealing absorbing alternation in its own right.
Debuting in 1987 for the Famicom arrangement in Japan, the bold was an complete success, and has sparked a ton of sequels abide of Final Fantasy Cosplay, circuit offs, bold cosplay costumes, movies, adaptable games, activated series, and accountant materials. There's some agitation as to whether or not the Final Fantasy cast is the a lot of broadly broadcast video bold authorization of all time because all of the forms it's taken through the years.
The Final Fantasy alternation was groundbreaking for RPG's, but how were the endings? 411's Gavin Napier takes a attending at the endings of the aboriginal three amateur in the US authorization in this week's This Is The End(ing)! Please focus on assorted franchises as we go. It's harder to accept that this is starting the 4th "chapter" already, afterwards affective through the Silent Hill, Uncharted, and one piece cosplay costumes titles. This is advantageous cavalcade amount thirteen, and next on my account is the Final Fantasy ancestors of games. Don't worry, I won't be traveling through all actor of them. I'll accouterment a brace of the aboriginal ones this week, move on to what is one of the added polarizing amateur in history next week, and accomplishment up with some contempo titles from the alternation in two weeks. For now, though, it's time for some mail.
However, I would absolutely adore some ascribe from my readers on what to accouterment next. I'm not active out of account by any stretch. Apart from Final Fantasy Cosplay, there are a lot of amateur out there that are account digging into, and there are a lot of franchises out there that are account a alternation of online writing on for actual and ball value. I've played my fair allotment of games, and I've baffled a lot of of what I've played.

IFA set to join forces with home nations to tackle Fifa over poppy fines
Windsor chiefs will take action despite not being able to appeal poppy fine
The Irish FA are preparing to bare their teeth against the might of Fifa after being fined and reprimanded yesterday by football's world governing body for their Armistice Day act of remembrance at the Northern Ireland v Azerbaijan World Cup qualifier at Windsor Park.
Fifa, who waited a week to announce the punishment, hit the Irish FA with a penalty of £11,769 (15,000 Swiss Francs) after a three-man disciplinary committee found them guilty of breaking their rule 4.4 which concerns political, religious or commercial messages at football matches.
But to add further insult to an already incredibly sensitive issue for the Irish FA, the sanction falls below Fifa's threshold for appeal, and therefore Windsor Park chiefs will NOT be allowed to challenge the decision - unlike their counterparts in England, Scotland and Wales who received larger fines yesterday for 'displays of poppies' during their games on November 11.
The Irish FA though are determined to stand up to Fifa in this unsavoury row and tomorrow night will hold a board meeting at Windsor Park where they will discuss their legal options - including demanding to know why they were fined on the limit where they had no right to reply.
Communities Minister Paul Givan, whose brief includes sport, also revealed to the Belfast Telegraph last night that the Irish FA are considering joining forces with their fellow home associations to tackle Fifa.
The DUP MLA said: "There are certainly discussions with the four home nations to see if they could make a joint representation, and I would expect the IFA even if they are unable to technically appeal, to look at making representation with the other home nations."
Irish FA must keep fighting Fifa over poppy fine, says Sport Minister Givan

Bloody Cop Kills: 5 Out For Justice
Bloody Cop Kills: Out For JusticeBetween bending people in half and making them stab themselves in their own faces, Steven Segal had his trademark moves during his solid stint of action roles in the early 90's. Out For Justice may be preposterous, but it makes use of every limb, orifice, kitchen appliance and piece of furniture when angry cop Gino Felino punishes William Forsythe's mob baddie. It is just a humiliating and warranted beat down. But the best part is how it ends with a corkscrew in the head. Thank God they didn't decide to see if Segal could remove the cork.

I never realized Egyptians thought everything was blamed on them. I guess every culture and country feels this way. Sorry, don't have anything to add.
We don't, its only natural that as an egyptain to come from this angle (to give way to make fun of what we actually are resposible for), but be it in reality, i'd probably would've had americans as the subject of this post :D they just seem responsible for the whole world, LOL!

People with autism see the world differently.
They typically don't look at faces as closely; they can be more easily overwhelmed by too many stimuli; and they may fixate intensely on one thing at a time.
Previous research found these and other differences, but a new study helps you see the world how many people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) might.
The study, published in October in the journal Neuron, tracked 39 participants' eyes as they looked at 700 different images. Half of the participants had been officially diagnosed with ASD, and the other half were "neurotypical," meaning they didn't meet enough diagnostic criteria to be considered autistic.
"Among other findings, our work shows that the story is not as simple as saying 'people with ASD don't look normally at faces.' They don't look at most things in a typical way," study co-author Ralph Adolphs, a neuroscientist at CalTech, said in a press release.
These images show what participants' eyes gravitated toward, with the reddish areas showing the most looked-at spots. In every image, the participants with autism are on the left and the neurotypical participants are on the right.

Multistate Salmonella outbreak linked to bean sprouts – update
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has released an update on a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Enteritidis infection, which has been linked to mung bean sprouts produced by Wonton Foods Inc. of New York.
As of 2 December, a total of 87 people in 11 states have been infected by the outbreak strain of S. Enteritidis since 30 September, with 14 requiring hospital treatment. No deaths have been reported. The outbreak strain is not antibiotic-resistant.
Epidemiological investigation of the outbreak has established a link with mung bean sprouts produced by Wonton Foods. At least 42 of the people affected reported having eaten bean sprouts during the week before they became ill.
Wonton Foods agreed to stop production and sale of mung bean sprouts on 21 November. Thorough cleaning and sanitisation at the facility was completed on 24 November and the company then restarted production and resumed shipment of bean sprouts on 29 November.
CDC considers it unlikely that contaminated sprouts from Wonton Foods are still available in the food chain because the product has a shelf life of only 12 days.
More information about the outbreak can be found here.

Playstation fans must have forgotten about the PS1 and the PS2 being one of, if not the weakest, out of all consoles in their gen. Yet, those were the best systems during their lifespan because of the games.
PS1 and PS2's competition was annoying to develop for/unpopular, which is why they got the most games.
PS4 is both most popular and easiest to develop for while also being strongest. It will undoubtedly get the most games UNLESS MS keeps shelling out cash for exclusives.

This is the first time I will buy a system at launch. I got the PS1 in 1997, a PS2 in 2003, an Xbox 360 in 2007 and 2012(slim), and a PS3 in 2012. For me, most of my games I play are multiplatform. I did play Mass Effect (once a Microsoft exclusive), Halo, Gears of War, and Forza. On PS3, I just played some of the older first party titles like Infamous, but I did own Uncharted and MLB The Show. Ratchet and Clank were good on the PSP though. Little Big Planet looks great for the PS3 as well. People just need to realize that just because Sony didn't pull out the big guns for the PS4 at launch, it doesn't mean that the system will not have any good first person titles. You realize that the first person titles that are great are being released now have lower graphics? Ryse is at 900p. Halo and Titanfall are there, but how long will Halo survive? I was a huge fan, but Reach and Halo 4 were terrible. I preordered and picked Halo 3 ODST, Halo Reach, and Halo 4 at launch. The armor abilities were terrible and ruined the series for a fan like myself. Sure, us Sony guys have KZ SF as our biggest launch, but it is a quality FPS. I had it on the PS3 (free MP version) and I enjoyed it. It was a different experience, but great. Now, what does Epic have in stock with Gears? Not a fan of Dead Rising 3. Played #2 and got really bored and not into the endless Zombie swarms to get from safehouse to safehouse. Titanfall will come onto PS4 at some point, keep that in mind. All that Microsoft has imo is the Kinect 2.0(not into motion control gaming), HDMI In port, and some select decent 1st party games. Keep in mind too, the PS4 is an investment. If you don't like it now, it will get better once devs can optimize the platform to its potential and Sony publishes some new first party titles.
Get to the point....xbox or sony? thats all you have to say....

Teenage couple 'made bombs for dissident republicans' at Armagh home, court hears
A teenage couple were allegedly involved in making explosives for dissident republicans at their south Armagh home, the High Court heard today.
Prosecutors claimed an industrial-scale bread grinder discovered in the bungalow had been used to process large quantities of ammonium nitrate sugar for bombs.
A timer power unit found in an upstairs wardrobe could also have been planted and left for days and then activated by mobile phone, a judge was told.
Details emerged as 18-year-old Orla O'Hanlon mounted an application for bail.
Along with her 19-year-old partner Keith McConnan, she is charged with making and possessing explosives with intent to endanger life or property.
The couple were arrested following police searches of their home on Tievcrom Road, Forkhill last month.
A 3ft-tall grinder found inside was capable of producing 120kg of breadcrumbs an hour and had no domestic use, according to the prosecution.
Tests carried out on white power discovered in and around the appliance confirmed it to be ammonium nitrate, similar to that used in home-made explosives.
Traces of the same substance were detected in a bin and vacuum cleaner.
Prosecution counsel claimed an attempt had been made to clean and cover-up what had been going on.
"Police believe a large quantity of ammonium nitrate sugar has already been procured. That wasn't found on the premises," he said.
Latex gloves and £1,000 in cash were seized in the operation.
In a bedroom wardrobe police found a bag containing a portable power pack and a timer power unit with a mobile phone and battery taped to it.
"This device could be left for a number of days and could then have been activated by phoning the mobile," the prosecution lawyer said.
Documents relating to an alleged 30,000 euro money transfer made by O'Hanlon's co-accused were uncovered as well.
During police questioning she claimed to have used the grinder once to make oats.
All knowledge of the equipment found in the wardrobe was denied.
Opposing bail based on the risk flight and interference with witnesses, the prosecution said: "Police believe this activity is linked to dissident republicans."
O'Hanlon and McConnan had only moved into the bungalow together weeks before the raid, the court heard.
Defence counsel Taylor Campbell argued that anyone involved in a terrorist cell would not have used their own home.
He also pointed out that O'Hanlon's mother or father called at the property every other day.
"The notion that this house was ever going to be turned into something ongoing for the type of deadly activity the police suspect is just out of the question," Mr Campbell said.
"They (her parents) were regular visitors and they had been turning up unannounced."
Mr Justice Burgess was told fingerprint tests on the components inside the bag have yet to be completed.
Directing that results should be obtained within four weeks, he adjourned the bail application until then.
The judge said: "If the forensics are entirely clear I will regard that as a change of circumstances."

The GSTP1 gene encodes glutathione S-transferase P1, which is a member of the glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), a family of enzymes playing an important role in detoxification and in the antioxidant defense system. There is some evidence indicating that GSTP1 c.313A>G polymorphism may be beneficial for exercise performance. Therefore, we decided to verify the association between the frequency of GSTP1 c.313A>G variants, physical performance, and athletes' status in two cohorts: in a group of Russian athletes (n = 507) and in an independent population of Polish athletes (n = 510) in a replication study. The initial association study conducted with the Russian athletes revealed that the frequency of the minor G allele was significantly higher in all athletes than in controls; that was confirmed in the replication study of Polish athletes. In the combined cohort, the differences between athletes (n = 1017) and controls (n = 1246) were even more pronounced (32.7 vs 25.0%, P < 0.0001). Our findings emphasize that the G allele of the GSTP1 gene c.313A>G single nucleotide polymorphism is associated with improved endurance performance. These observations could support the hypothesis that the GSTP1 G allele may improve exercise performance by better elimination of exercise-induced ROS.

A video taken by blogger Rebel Pundit in February purportedly shows a Democratic congressman proudly receiving an award from a media arm of the Communist Party USA.
In the video, taken on February 26, Rep. Danny Davis (D-IL) can be seen accepting Peoplesworld.org's Rudy Lozano-Chris Hani Social Justice award at the Unity Center in Chicago. Peoplesworld.org is a website that enjoys a "special relationship with the Communist Party USA." And according to the video — and an introduction given by someone in it — the Unity Center is home to the Communist Party USA in Chicago and People's World.
In the video, the blogger confronts Davis about receiving the award after filming the acceptance. Davis starts out cordial and even shows off the framed piece of paper before two people step in and try to prevent the cameraman from continuing the interview. One man then appears to try and grab the videographer's camera and calls him "disgusting." That's after Davis said the man behind the camera shouldn't worry about the Communist Party.
You can watch it below:
Oddly enough, Peoplesworld.org doesn't have a story on Davis receiving the award. It does, however, have a story about Davis appearing in December at a similar ceremony for someone else.
That Davis would accept an award from such a group is probably not surprising. Keywiki, which is dedicated to exposing unflattering ties with radicals and progressives, lists a plethora of information on Davis's relationship with such radicals.
