Once Upon a Broken Heart
Starting school after doing nothing all summer is hard and not wanted. Homework is slowly piling up and it's only the first week! I HATE HOMEWORK. Thank the lord for study hall.
Anyway, thanks to all who reviewed and put this on some list or another. I was so excited to see how well you guys responded to it! Alright, on to the story…
Disclaimer: I'm running out of clever ways to say that I don't own Ranma. /
Chapter 16: Painting Jealousy
The thundering noise of the applauding audience welcomed the young royal couple as the stepped through the giant doors and into the greatly decorated ballroom. At the other end stood their families, the two kings and the queen standing next to thrones cushioned with red velvet.
"Today we celebrate the uniting of our kingdom and King Genma's kingdom by the marriage of our wonderful children! Let us kick off this ball with the first dance of the evening!" King Soun shouted as the crowd once again started clapping and cheering for the beginning of the celebration.
With a face set in determination, Akane walked with Ranma to the center of the dance floor where the many people had parted to give them room. Looking through the sea of people, Akane spotted Akari standing beside Doctor Tofu, both whom smiled and waved at the nervous princess walking by. Akane gave a small smile and turned her gaze back to the way she was walking.
"Scared?" she heard Ranma whisper from beside her.
"Of course not," she told him, standing up a little straighter to prove her point better. "You?"
"For something like dancing in front of a crowd of people I don't know who will be judging me with every fiber of their being? Don't be ridiculous."
Akane rolled her eyes as they continued walking. The only things being talked about as they made their long way to the middle of the dance floor was how cute the two looked together, how nice the new hair cut on the princess was, and how lucky they were to have such a handsome future king.
They took the final steps to the middle of the floor where they stopped and turned to face each other. Ranma bent at the waist in a deep bow while Akane lifted the sides of her gown and gave a curtsy fit for a queen to be.
The slow beats of the music filled the room when the musicians got the go ahead from Ms. Hinako who was standing in the crowd near the stage where all the instruments were placed. Ranma stepped up and offered his hand out to Akane who smiled and placed her own hand in his. Without hesitation this time, Ranma stepped closer to his dance partner and gently rested his hand on the small of her back.
Their feet moved across the floor as they danced to the sound of the instruments echoing through the huge ballroom. Neither prince nor princess spoke, letting the music being the only sound around them.
So is it official now? Are we really engaged?
Akane let her mind wander off as they danced to the person she was dancing so close with. It seemed so long ago that King Genma flew through the door and Ranma came in running after him. Even longer since she found out she was going to be married to him. Nabiki's words flashed through Akane's mind.
"Just think little sister, tonight's the engagement ball and pretty soon is your birthday. After that will be your wedding."
"Ranma," Akane asked in a quiet voice as they continued to dance, "my birthday is coming up soon you know."
"Um, when exactly? All anyone says is just soon. No one seems to know exactly how soon," Ranma said with drawn eyebrows as he looked at Akane.
"A week and a couple days," she said trying not to get mad.
How does he not even now when my birthday?
Ranma's eyes widened and panic showed in his eyes. He didn't know that her birthday was that soon.
"Are you alright?" Akane asked with a raised eyebrow.
Ranma looked at her a moment before answering. "Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine," he said in a dismissive voice. "Just thinking that's all."
"Thinking? I didn't know you were capable," the princess said with a smirk.
"And to think I've been nice to you all day."
"All day?"
"Well, ok, most of the day," he said with a roll of his eyes. "You have to admit though; it's been a bloody long day."
"Agreed," Akane shouted over the claps that started at the end of the song. Ranma gave another bow and Akane another curtsy before joining their audience and clapped for the musicians before setting off to where their families were standing.
One week and a couple days, Akane kept replaying in her head.
One week and a couple days... Aren't we supposed to get married sometime after her birthday?!
If it wasn't such an "unmanly" thing to do, Ranma was sure he would be hyperventilating right where he stood. It seemed to him like his impending doom had just walked up and slapped him in the face as if it was out to get revenge. He still felt the sting even as they reached the part of the gigantic ballroom where the thrones were placed for the special evening.
"That was wonderful children!" Queen Nodoka gushed as the two came in close enough range to hear over the music that once again began to play only at a faster pace.
The booming voice of his father made him and everyone around the thrones including the older couple standing near by jump in surprise. Ranma slammed his palm to his forehead while the queen gave a nervous laugh to the couple.
"Good job dancing with your fiancé son," King Genma said giving him a thumbs up.
"Yes. I think the people are very warm to the idea of uniting the kingdoms," King Soun said, popping into the conversation from beside where he was standing next to Genma.
They're insane… Ranma thought as he stared at the two with a twitching eye.
"Come with me," Nabiki said coming up beside Ranma and linking her arm through his.
"Hey!" he shouted in surprise as she started dragging him away from their dads. Reaching the table full of food, Nabiki unlinked their arms and with her hands on his shoulders, guided him to stand next to the table.
"Perfect," she said with a satisfied smile on her face as her arms fell to her sides.
"Well I prefer Ranma, but I can learn to deal with it I guess," Ranma said with a shrug.
"Hmm, jokes about obviously big head that aren't funny at all? No wonder my sister can beat you up," Nabiki told him with half lidded eyes as she started tugging out the wrinkles in his shirt.
"What are you doing?" he asked as she started to brush off his shoulders.
"The question is not what I am doing, but more like what you will be doing," the princess said with a mischievous glint in her eyes as she made it a point to say 'you' with an emphasis.
"No, I'm pretty sure I asked about you," Ranma told her with a raised eyebrow.
"Well if you must know, Shampoo is paying me for one dance with you."
"What?!" the prince shouted loudly, scaring the same couple that had retreated to the table to escape from the loud voice of his father. "I'm not dancing with Shampoo!"
"Oh yes you are," Nabiki threatened him, giving him a glare. "Shampoo and I made a deal when you left this morning."
"But Akane will kill me! I'm serious! My body will be nothing but little Ranma pieces scattered around the floor!"
"You're expecting we find anything of your body?" Nabiki asked with a serious face.
The prince glared at the princess standing in front of him. "What makes you think I'm gonna dance with someone just because you're getting paid Nabiki?"
"Do you want a certain secret of a certain prince turning into a princess to be known by everyone?" she asked with a fake smile.
"Do you even have a soul?" he asked after a hesitant moment of silence.
"Nope! Sold that too."
"Prince Ranma!" the excited voice of Shampoo interrupted by shouting as she came up to where the two royals were standing.
Ranma winced at the sound of the Chinese girl and turned to her with dread. "Uh, hi Shampoo," he said begrudgingly.
"Prince Ranma dance with Shampoo yes?" she asked Nabiki while pointing to herself.
"When you pay up," Nabiki retorted back, holding out her hand for the money. Shampoo smirked as she forcibly put the money in Nabiki's palm. While Nabiki counted to make sure it was all there, Shampoo smiled and slid her arms around Ranma's like she did that morning. She was wearing a long Chinese style dress with a slit in the side that came all the way up to her hip.
"Shampoo!" the voice of the boy from that morning yelled as he ran to where the three resided. Ranma looked over to see the long black haired boy running into some of the guests mingling instead of dancing.
That's the guy who hugged Nabiki right?
"Stupid Mousse. Put glasses on," Shampoo told the now out of breath fool with an annoyed face.
"Shampoo my love! I knew I would be able to find you!" he said breathlessly as he reached for the thick glasses sitting on top of his head.
"What Mousse want?" the Amazon asked in a monotone voice.
Smiling like a crazed man, Mousse gave a great bow and held out his hand in front of Shampoo. "Would you honor me with a dance my beautiful Shampoo?"
"No," Shampoo replied before dragging Ranma to the dance floor with no time to stop her.
"Wait Shampoo!" Ranma tried yelling out as she led him to a clear spot where there was room for them to dance. "I can't dance with you."
"But Shampoo pay violent girl sister," Shampoo said as she placed one of his hands on her hip and the other she held in her own. She gave him a smile as the first notes of the next song filled the ballroom.
The next few notes came quickly after, indicating to Ranma that this was indeed a fast song that Shampoo had just dragged him out to dance to.
Oh crap… He thought with doom. Watching his feet as they moved clumsily across the floor, he concentrated more on not falling then who he was dancing with. As they continued to dance, Ranma more then once stepped on the foot of his dance partner's.
Dancing can't seriously be this hard!
"Shampoo make Prince Ranma nervous yes?" Shampoo asked him with a grimace as he accidentally stomped down on her foot again.
"Sorry bout that," the black haired prince mumbled with his head bowed to stare at his feet, willing them to move to the beat like the vampire was telling him to do so much that morning.
Lifting his head, Ranma gave a sigh of relief as he looked into the face of his best friend Ukyou. "Ukyou! Hi!"
"Who are you dancing with?" she asked with her arms crossed and a strained smile on her face.
"This is Lady uh, what's her name, great grand-daughter, Shampoo," he said, gratefully jumping out of Shampoo's arms and going over to stand next to Ukyou. "Shampoo this is my friend, Ukyou."
"Ranma no finished dancing with Shampoo," the purple haired girl said coldly, grabbing the closet arm of Ranma's that she was near.
"Well he's going to dance with me now," the brown haired chef snapped back while grabbing Ranma's other arm.
"Prince Ranma dancing with Shampoo!" Shampoo said angrily, yanking Ranma closer to her.
"I think Ranma would prefer to dance with me!" Ukyou replied back, tugging the pigtailed prince closer to her instead.
"Shampoo pay for dance with Prince Ranma!" Shampoo argued as Ranma was once again forced to stand closer to her.
All around them on the dance floor, couples stopped their movements and applauded the musicians and the ending of another song.
"Song's over," Ukyou stated smugly as she pulled Ranma closer to her so forcibly that he was freed from the trapping arms of Shampoo. She quickly led him away from the angry Amazon to a different part of the dance floor. They looked over at the musicians as they began to play a new song. The song's slow notes invited the many dancing partners to step closer to one another and begin dancing.
Ranma looked back at his childhood friend and shrugged. With a friendly smile on his face, he held out his hand for a dance. A blush rose to Ukyou's face as she gave a shy smile herself and placed her hand in his.
"Having fun?" Ukyou asked him, looking up at him with knowing expression.
"Loads," Ranma replied sarcastically and with a roll of his eyes. "How about you?"
"I'm only out here for a little bit before they need me back in the kitchens," she said with a sigh. After a moment of awkward silence, Ukyou bit her lip and looked up at Ranma sheepishly. "Ranma? Do you love Akane?"
Ranma stumbled as they continued to move across the floor. He looked at Ukyou with a shocked face and gulped. "What brought this on?"
"Well, you are going to be married soon," she said feeling like a complete fool.
"One week and a couple days," the black haired prince responded in a distant voice, looking over her shoulder at nothing in particular.
"You don't have to marry her Ranma!" she said in a rush before thinking. "We can just run away from all of this! Start a new life, just the two of us!"
"Ukyou?" Ranma asked his best friend in confusion.
"Ranma, do you like me at all?" the chef asked with desperation in her eyes.
"Of course I do Ukyou," Ranma said even more confused. Ukyou gave him a bright smile. "You're my best friend."
Her smile slowly fell and she couldn't even try to hide the pain showing on her face. "Oh," she said with tears welling up in her eyes.
"What's wrong?! What did I do?!" Ranma asked in panic at seeing the girl in front of him about to cry.
"Nothing," she said with her head bowed so her bangs would hide her eyes. "I have to get back to the kitchens now," she said before running off away from the dance floor while tears left trails on her cheeks.
Ranma watched her go, totally confused about what had just happened. Meanwhile, the people around him continued to dance and enjoy the engagement ball.
Akane sighed at the usual act of King Genma unnecessarily yelling out his son's name when he was in hearing distance. Deciding not to get involved with whatever her father and his friend were up to, Akane walked unnoticed to where her two older sisters were standing not far away.
"You and Ranma did wonderful Akane!" Kasumi told her happily once she reached where they were.
"Dad cried," Nabiki said with a smirk. "Again."
"Dad would cry at a picture of a door," Akane told her with a roll of her eyes and a smile.
"Well, I have business to attend to. Excuse me ladies," Nabiki said walking toward where Akane had just come from with an evil smile on her lips.
Kasumi and Akane stood where they were, greeting people who came to congratulate the princess on her engagement. Compliments were exchanged between the two royals and the guests as was expected. They saw a frazzled older couple pass by, coming from the refreshment table.
Wonder what happened to them… Akane thought before her thoughts were interrupted with the sight of Akari pushing an obviously nervous Doctor Tofu toward where she and Kasumi were still standing. Tofu stared ahead with fogged glasses and a goofy smile on his face.
"Hello Doctor Tofu. Akari," Kasumi greeted them when they stood before the two princesses.
"Good evening Princess!" Akari said happily with a curtsy.
"Hello Princess," the good doctor said with a laugh. He bowed low at the waist, only to fall on his face when he went to low and didn't come back up.
Kasumi laughed and told him how funny he was while Akari walked to Akane's side. "I told him to ask her to dance," Akari giggled in her ear.
"At the risk of everyone else on the dance floor?" Akane said with a smile as she watched Tofu turn a bright red when Kasumi helped him off the floor.
Doctor Tofu gave a hearty laugh and scratched the back of his head nervously. "So Princess-"
"Please Doctor Tofu, call me Kasumi," the eldest princess requested with a gentle smile.
Tofu gave another laugh and shakily offered out his hand in front of him for a dance. Caught up in the moment, Akane and Akari both held their breath at the same time, awaiting Kasumi's response. Kasumi's smile brightly and reached out and gently put her hand in his.
"Doctor Tofu, the dance floor is the other way," the princess laughed as the brown haired doctor led them both away in the wrong direction.
"Ah, young love," Akari joked as she watched with Akane Kasumi steer Tofu the right way, making Akane laugh.
This night isn't so bad after all! While thinking, Nabiki walked up to the two, counting a bunch of money in her hands.
"Who owed you money this time Nabiki?" Akane asked, only slightly surprised at the sight.
"Just a little arrangement I had made with Shampoo," Nabiki said distractedly as she finished up counting.
"What kind of arrangement?" Akane asked in a hard voice, her anger obvious.
"Look for yourself," Nabiki said, pointing to the dance floor where Kasumi had just directed Tofu.
Akane looked over where all the dancing couples just in time to see one couple in particular come into view. There, dancing awkwardly in the crowd was Shampoo and the very man Akane herself had danced with only moments before.
What is he doing dancing with that...that… BIMBO?!
Her fists clenched at her sides and her she set her face in a stubborn look. Akari looked at her pity. "Are you okay Akane?"
"Why would I be?" Akane said, crossing her arms over her chest and turning her head away with an 'hmph'. "It's not like I care about a big jerk like him."
"I thought we got passed this point," Nabiki said with half lidded eyes.
Akane glared at her sister before turning back to look at all the guests. Searching through the many people, she smiled evilly when she saw the exact person she was looking for.
"Two can play at this game."
Walking away from her sister and friend, the princess set out on the boy leaning against a wall where not many people were. Straightening her back and putting on a brilliant smile, Akane walked up and stood in front of Ryoga.
"Having fun Ryoga?"
"Akane!" the black haired boy exclaimed in surprise, almost falling down the wall. "Uh, of course I am!" he said with a blush appearing on his face. "How about you?"
"Eh, it's alright I suppose," she said, clasping her hands behind her back and joining Ryoga in leaning against the wall.
"Where is Ranma?"
"Oh, he's off dancing with some girl."
"Why would he go and do that when he has a beautiful fiancé to dance with?!" Ryoga somewhat yelled. He pushed off the wall and stood in front of Akane, grabbing both her hands in his. He looked her in the eyes with a serious face. "Akane, will you do me the pleasure of dancing with me?"
"Uh, sure Ryoga," Akane said with an uneasy smile. She wasn't expecting the reaction that she got from him.
The two walked to the floor just as a slow song started to play. Ryoga with a blush and Akane with a victory smile, they started dancing to the slow beats that filled the room. Shampoo stomped by, sparking the curiosity of the blue haired girl.
What made her so upset?
Looking over Ryoga's shoulder, Akane spotted the black haired prince and his best friend talking while they danced to the same song.
I wonder what they're talking about…
Ryoga was too distracted with trying to keep in time that he didn't notice his dancing partner's attention being somewhere else. Akane meanwhile, was watching the two talk from where she was dancing like any creeper would. She stopped in her tracks though when she saw Ukyou run away from Ranma, leaving him standing there with a look of confusion and pain showing on his face.
"Akane?" Ryoga asked when the princess's face flashed with concern for the pig tailed prince.
"Hmm? Oh sorry. Yeah, let's just, keep dancing," she said in a distracted voice as she once again started dancing to the music. Her eyes found there way back to Ranma after only a few seconds and her mind filled with questions about what she had just witnessed.
What is he doing just standing there? What did that jerk do to Ukyou?
All of a sudden blue clashed with brown as Ranma turned his face in her direction and looked straight into her eyes. Her heart skipped a beat at the intensity of the gaze he held with her own. Just when she thought he was going to walk to her, he put his hands in his pockets and walked the other way to the entrance of the ballroom. Claps once again filled the air as another song finished.
"Would you like to dance again?" Ryoga asked in a hopeful voice.
"Uh, no thanks Ryoga. I have to go do something," Akane said, giving him a smile that showed she was sorry. Before the musicians could begin another song, Akane rushed out of the ballroom, lifting up the sides of her dress once she was out the doors.
Not knowing where he would go, Akane started walking to the one place she could think of that the young prince would be. Turning the corner to enter the hallway that led to the garden, she stopped short at the sight of Ranma staring at one picture in particular on the wall with a thoughtful face on. Akane looked at the sight with sad eyes.
"That's my mom. My dad insisted on having a picture of her and he thought of all these silly poses to have her in. But she just laughed and suggested a more natural pose for herself," the princess said while walking up and standing beside Ranma in the hallway.
Ranma turned his attention to the girl beside him as she stared at the painting of her mom reading by the window overlooking the garden she loved so much. "My mom was right. You look a lot like her."
"Thanks," Akane said, looking away from the painting and once again into the eyes of the prince that had stirred so much trouble in all the days he's been here. "So are you okay? I saw Ukyou run away from you back there."
"I don't know what happened. She saves me from dancing with Shampoo one minute and the next she's running away crying," Ranma said running a hand down his face.
"Why were you watching me dance?" Ranma asked with a raised eyebrow and growing smirk, after a moment of shared silence.
"I-I wasn't watching you!" Akane stuttered with a slight blush staining her cheeks. "I simply looked over at that moment when I was dancing with Ryoga!"
"Oh yeah. Sure," he said with sarcasm dripping off each word. "Wait. You were dancing with that pig?!"
"Yup. Why? Are you, oh I don't know, jealous perhaps?" she retorted with a knowing look on her face.
"Jealous? Me? Ha! I'm not the one who was watching people dance!"
That jerk!
Without a moment's hesitation, Akane punched him in the gut. She crossed her arms, setting her face into a stubborn expression while Ranma clutched his stomach and groaned in pain.
"Was that really necessary?"
"I'm not jealous," Akane stated with a glare.
Ranma gave her a smile through the pain. "Sure."
The princess gave her prince gave up and smiled slightly as she rolled her eyes for the thousandth time that evening it seemed since I wrote it so many times.
"So, now what do we do?"
"I don't know."
Me neither.
"How about this," Ranma suggested as he straightened his back and gave her a boyish grin. "If you promise not to punch me again, how about we go back to that stupid ball, stay for as long as needed, then go somewhere fun."
"Like where?" Akane asked with her normal curious face.
"Wait and see," Ranma told her before cautiously taking her arm in his own. Together they walked back to the ballroom as they had just earlier that evening.
This should be interesting…
Wow. I suck. You can actually tell where I lost it. Oh well! I really like this chapter. It's longer and I like the writing. But do you? X3 Review and tell me what you think. Sorry it took so long to update. School is evil.
Thanks for reading!

State Rep. Kim Fawcett and members of the Committee on Children recently unveiled a comprehensive early childhood mental health proposal that is intended to serve as a complement to House Bill 1160, the gun violence prevention and child safety measures that passed the legislature on a bipartisan basis last month by the legislature in reaction to the December school shootings in Newtown.
"This bill is a strong first step towards getting complete mental health services for the children of Connecticut," Fawcett said. "The lack of coordination and communication between the existing agencies is causing children to fall through the cracks. We cannot stand by any longer while this happens. I am proud to stand by this bill."
Senate Bill 972, An Act Concerning the Mental, Emotional and Behavioral Health of Youths, seeks to reduce mental, emotional and behavioral health issues in children through more early identification and intervention and better consistency between home visitation programs and public education campaign, a study of incarcerated youth with mental health issues and the creation of a Children's Mental Health Task Force.
This bill has no fiscal impact to state taxpayers. Some of these initiatives rely on the availability of federal or private funding to accomplish the goals.

AFTRA Blocks CC'S Homogenization of NY
An agreement reached by the New York Local of the American
Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA) and Clear
Channel Radio over the fate of on-air hosts in key local
radio stations represents a small victory in the face of
well-entrenched trends unleashed by the 1996 Telecom Act and
subsequent consolidation in the radio industry.
Clear Channel had been seeking to replace unionized live
on-air hosts with pre-recorded announcements made by
out-of-state non-union announcers, a process known as "voice
tracking." The demand was not unreasonable in a 'Corporate
America' context: the entire premise of acquisition &
mergers is that the larger group can achieve cost savings
and efficiencies by centralizing and streamlining decision
making & operations. Without these cost-cutting efficiency
measures, the bill for the buying spree can't be justified
to Wall Street. Clear Channel is therefore simply
fulfilling its fiduciary obligations to its shareholders.
The problem is that radio is not simply nuts-&-bolts. It is
a key national infrastructure for the diffusion of ideas, debate and,
of course, music. Federal courts, up to the Supremes, have
consistently determined that broadcast radio is an essential
element in nurturing our democracy and free expression for
citizens and communities. This is why, unlike nuts-&-bolts,
radio as well as other major media sectors have been subject
to a whole series of ownership restrictions, whether it be by
foreign entities (not withstanding Murdoch) or cross-media
ownership in a given community.
Notwithstanding the issue of undercutting New York's labor
market with out-state "scabs," Clear Channel's vision of radio
is not one of diversity and community empowerment, but of
price-earning ratios and ROI. That's understandable for its
not Clear Channel's job to ensure the public interest, that
task falls on the FCC and Congress. We can only hope that they
will pursue it with as much zeal as AFTRA did in ensuring
their members' interest.

First, hi at all^^
I like scummVM very much, becouse now i can play
games that i had played years ago.
but on my new mobile phone, n80, (s60 3rd) it is not running fullscreen.
It is just running in 176X208 pix, althuogh i have 352X416.
and i cant strech it using 0+4.
is there a way to make it fit fullscreen or not?
if not, could you please make a new sybian s60 version for devices with higher resolutions?
(sry for my english iam just 14)
If you have read the other posts about this topic you should know that this is still work in progress but should be ready for the 0.9 release.
Maybe at least you should be able to use one of the 320x200 (original resolution of the games !!) modes pressing 0+2 once or twice.
On my Nokia E60 the 320x200 portrait uses about half the screen height of the 352x416 and nearly the whole width.
... it was enough to play through the whole Sam&Max game.
So if it does not work, it seems to be a device-specific problem of the N80, not a problem of S60 3rd edition.
- Goetz
Well I am implementing fullscreen in all directions and ways.. i.e full screen both in landscape and portrait for
352x416,416x352,240x320,320x240.. and it looks nice. So I guess the E60 has a default mode of landscape 416x352 .. so I will stretch to that extent in portrait. for a N80 in portrait I will stretch to a max of x2.. so that means a resolution of 352x400 for a 320x200 game or to 416x352 in landscape for a 320x200 game. And now I just have to get the coordinates right.. And I am getting there. So just be patient. The issue about the screensize has been mentioned since the first version of scummvm for S60v3 was built, and the screen on the N80 is very small. Well. be nice to see it use all the resolution available.
Well, the E60 has a default resolution of width=352,height=416. This is the resolution I use for the 320x200 games (twice 0+2 pressed), since it almost fits in width. The only reason for changing to an upscaled landscape mode could be the small size of the area used by scummvm on this display which is about 30mm*20mm on the display of about 35mm*41mm.
For the landscape mode there are several possibilities: One is to use the builtin device feature which rotates the screen clockwise to width=416, height=352. The other is to use the scummvm rotate feature (0+2 once), which seems to work well.
Since I like to have the controls on the right, I then have to flip the display by 0+3 which leads to some offsets between the initial paint and the repaints (and actual pointer coordinates). So this mode is not usable on the device yet, but not needed anyway.
For the moment I also don't have a clever idea how the interpolation for up-scaling in this mode could work. I like the clear native resolution of the games in portrait mode, although it is quite small. But I'm also looking forward to see some upscaled versions when they will be finished.
But ... no need for a hurry! Maybe I finish another game before scaling is available.
- Goetz
Nice to see someone playing games, and beeing able to complete them. Upscale looks really nice actually. I finished the upscale for landscape yesterday and it looks really nice. And flipping is working really nice, better in non fit mode.
thanks to all replyd, sry i just used the forum search and didn´t got any results...
pressing o+2 doesn´t work, just the screen reloads (is black for a second)
if it´s just beeing ported, i can wait^^

Ben Stein on liberal Catholics who support illegal immigration:
I notice that the liberals within the Catholic Church are a big part of the organizing brains and muscle behind the huge illegal immigrant rallies in cities across the U.S. They are arguing that it is unkind and un-Christian to want to arrest people who have entered America illegally. They also fear prosecution if aiders and abettors are criminalized since they aid and abet illegal immigrants.
This is fine, and obviously a man does not sign away his First Amendment rights if he takes orders. But isn't this obviously Church interference in legal and political matters? How come this church involvement with the huge political issue of illegal immigration is fine and dandy -- but involvement by conservative members of the Catholic faith in trying to save the lives of the unborn, the sick, and the deformed is a dangerous intrusion over the "wall" between church and state? How can illegal immigration be considered a bigger moral issue than the killing of tens of millions of the unborn who are totally innocent of any crime? The hypocrisy of the left on this issue is staggering.

What happened
Shares of Omega Protein Corporation (NYSE: OME) were soaring today after it agreed to sell itself to the Cooke Inc for $22/share.
Continue Reading Below
Canada-based Cooke said it had entered into an agreement to take over Omega Protein at the above price, which represents a 32.5% premium to Omega's closing price yesterday. Both boards of directors have unanimously approved the deal.
Omega Protein opened today's trading session at $21.95 and has been flat since then, representing a 32.4% jump as of 11:15 a.m. EDT.
So what
The stock's trading within pennies of the $22 acquisition price shows a high level of confidence among investors that the deal will go through as negotiated.
Omega Protein CEO Bret Scholtes said, "We are excited about the agreement, which we believe recognizes the value of Omega Protein's successful, 100-year-old fishing business and also provides stockholders with an immediate premium." He also called Cooke a perfect fit for Omega, noting that the buyer was in many ways similar to his company.
Now what
The deal is expected to close around the end of the year or early next year. Financing is being provided by BMO Capital Markets.
Even with today's surge, the stock is down 12% year to date as shares plunged in March after the company badly missed estimates. Still, the stock has been volatile throughout its history, and the sizable premium from Cooke seems to represent the best outcome for Omega Protein investors.

First Step Towards Freeing The Hemp Plant
Green Party MP Nandor Tanczos today welcomed the passing of the first reading of his private members bill which seeks to remove industrial hemp from the Misuse of Drugs Act.
Mr Tanczos' bill, which treats hemp as an arable crop rather than a drug, was passed to the Primary Production select committee last night with the support of Labour, the Alliance and ACT.
"I was pleased to get support for this bill because it is a commonsense bill which would make the growing of hemp a viable option for ordinary farmers," he said.
"I was pleased that after my bill was drawn from the ballot the Minister of Health announced that experimental crops of hemp would be approved. I am concerned, though, that excessive bureaucracy and health department paranoia will make it way too expensive for most people to do trials. My bill would clear the way for the ordinary farmer to profit as well as the big boys.
"It is vitally important that New Zealanders understand the principle behind this bill - hemp is not a drug. The marijuana that is smoked is around 50 times stronger than industrial hemp. You simply cannot get high from smoking hemp."
Marijuana has levels of the psychoactive ingredient THC at around 12 - 15 per cent. Industrial hemp contains less than one per cent, while Mr Tanczos' bill would only allow hemp of below .3 per cent THC in line with a number of other jurisdictions.
Mr Tanczos said hemp was an incredible fibre crop that could be used to make a range of products including clothes, rope, particle board and paper. The seeds are used for a range of widely used products including health foods, edible oils, soaps, cosmetics and cremes.
"Hemp is four times more productive than pines in terms of producing paper and less polluting to process. It is good for the soil and requires minimal pest control or fertilizer which makes it affordable to grow and good for the environment.
"Hemp should be able to be grown in the same fashion as any other annual crop. I am pleased that the Government have agreed to hemp trials but my bill takes it that logical step further and makes what could be a great regional crop available to everyone," he said.

|Just a note of caution, most (nearly all) worldwide auto manufactures have stopped shipping 13" wheels as original equipment. As a result, with each successive model year, the market for 13" rubber gets smaller. Result? The selection of 13" performance tires gets smaller all the time. Tire manufactures just have little incentive to make 13" tires. I have some 13 X 7.5 rims and the choices are relatively few compared to the huge selection at sizes 15" and up.
If you have identified some interesting 13" tires, please post!
Thanks and good luck

Pros / This tower fan moves a lot of air and is great for large rooms.
Cons / The fan blows loudly on medium and high settings, and Lasko does not offer live chat.
Verdict / The Lasko Whole Room C27100 fan pushes a lot more air than most of our ranked tower fans, and it is a good choice if you do not mind loud fan noises.
Editor's Note: This product has been removed from our side-by-side comparison because it has been discontinued. You can still read our original review below, but Top Ten Reviews is no longer updating this product's information.
The Lasko Whole Room C27100 tower fan is an air circulator that wants for nothing when it comes to power. This is an oscillating tower fan that can spread air across the whole room at three different speeds with ease. On low, the Lasko can push air at 1,871 CFM (cubic feet per minute). This is more CFM than many of the best tower fans on high. When it is on high, you get up to 2,421 CFM, which is exceptional by any tower fan's standards, and it's a good setting for cooling large rooms such as a living or family room. Unfortunately, the noise increases a lot with the fan on high.
The fan is housed in a hardened, break-resistant plastic and stands 26.5 inches high. It is 8.83 inches wide and 11.3 inches deep. Even though this fan is built stronger than most, Lasko has designed it to be relatively light: It weighs 11 pounds. The built-in handle also makes this tower fan easy to move and reposition. You can use it either as a floor fan, which is quite common for tower fan owners, or as a standing fan on a higher surface.
This tower fan includes an easy-to-use remote control with a little storage slot on the rear of the fan so you do not lose it – which is particularly easy to do with these little remotes. The controls for the fan are located on the top of the unit and include a button to start the rotation of the louvers. Louvers are similar to window blinds, and when you choose to rotate them while using this tower fan, they can provide a more natural airflow to your room. The Lasko also comes with an electronic timer that you can set for one to seven hours.
Lasko is a giant in the fan industry and provides good customer support by phone or email, but does not offer live chat. Support representatives generally respond to emails within 24 hours. If you lose your user manual, you can download it from Lasko's website. This fan comes with a one-year limited warranty.
The Lasko Whole Room C27100 Air Circulator is a serious wind-producing machine that deserves consideration if you are looking to cool a large area such as a garage or a basement and are not worried about what your fan looks or sounds like. For all its power, this tower fan is light and easy to move around, so if you are looking for a heavy-duty tower fan that is still quite portable, this model is a good one to consider.

Trying to explain what The Hip meant to us
KINGSTON – Comparing The Tragically Hip's effect on their fans to sneaking medicine to a dog using peanut butter is probably the most unromantic metaphor you've heard over the past couple weeks, but hear me out!
The dog feels better and knows it was the peanut butter, but why?! Was it because it's locally made? Did it have a new recipe? WITCHCRAFT!
How did something in familiar packaging put such a completely different feeling inside you?
Five guys who looked like they could've been your neighbours, using the same guitars, drums and bass that everyone else did, became the biggest rock band in the country while somehow convincing Canadians to shout "Jacques Cousteau" and "vicariously" at the top of their lungs between gulps of Creemore. They made us pause our Discman and ask a buddy who Hugh MacLennan was. They trusted that you'd be OK without the "Fire/Desire/Liar" Rock Lyric Handbook and did it all while projecting the same musical muscle at your local hockey arena as AC/DC's tales of American thighs.
How? What was the trick?!
Every few years, a TV show or article would tackle the question of what The Hip meant to us. A man on the street would credit their ability to capture the Canadian identity — they're locally made! — their musicianship or Gord's status as the nation's poet laureate.
No answer among the thousands offered ever felt quite right, though. None of it fully explained why the country stopped on October 18th and just ugly cried as though we'd lost a family member.
Maybe that's why their live show was so important to the equation — you didn't HAVE to explain it to the person next to you in the wrinkled "Another Roadside Attraction" T-shirt. Likewise, maybe that's also why so many of us in the city found ourselves downtown in Market Square watching Long Time Running together. As you always had, you felt it — whatever it was — with The Hip and that was enough.
I don't have the answer and I don't imagine I ever will. And that's OK, too.
Thank you, Gord, Rob, Johnny, Paul and Gord.
Ben McLean is a husband, a father, and should've Googled "Should you give your dog peanut butter?" beforehand. You get the idea, though, c'mahnn! He can be heard weekday mornings on 98.9 The Drive and reached at email@example.com.

About the Author-
- R. J. PALACIO lives in NYC with her husband, two sons, and two dogs. For more than twenty years, she was an art director and graphic designer, designing book jackets for other people while waiting for the perfect time in her life to start writing her own novel. But one day several years ago, a chance encounter with an extraordinary child in front of an ice cream store made R. J. realize that the perfect time to write that novel had finally come. Wonder is her first novel. She did not design the cover, but she sure does love it.
August 3, 2015
Few first novels beget a franchise, but Palacio's Wonder (2012), about a boy with a severe facial deformity, is a phenomenon. A bestseller since publication, it has also spawned a standalone companion book, 365 Days of Wonder: Mr. Browne's Book of Precepts (2014). But despite requests from readers for a sequel, Palacio writes in her introduction to this collection of three previously released e-singles, "I can guarantee that... the de facto sequel will never be written." Instead she offers the back stories of three kids in Auggie Pullman's orbit, beginning with the "much-loathed" Julian, who suffers from nightmares and anxiety. Julian's story is the most didactic, but it will have classroom use as an "anatomy of a bully" lesson, suggesting that readers look behind a mean-spirited act to understand what drives it. Readers also spend time with Christopher, Auggie's best friend until his family moved to Connecticut, and Charlotte, a classmate chosen to help Auggie transition from homeschooling to fifth grade. Readers who wanted more about Auggie will flock to this. Ages 8â12. Agent: Alyssa Eisner Henkin, Trident Media.
In the companion novel to Wonder, (2012) three students at Beecher Prep middle school tell stories that connect with Auggie Pullman's dramatic arrival into their worlds. "Sometimes friendships are hard," and friendship with Auggie Pullman is a special challenge. He is different. He looks different, and that's not easy in middle school. He has a "severe craniofacial difference," facial features that, even after many surgeries over the years, look like "the drippings on the side of a candle." Now, Palacio zeros in on three characters: Julian, the bully; Auggie's oldest friend, Christopher; and Charlotte, the girl who is nice to Auggie but never especially friendly. Auggie is the common thread in their stories, but he's behind the scenes here, peripheral to their first-person narratives. Each character relates a story that includes an epiphany about friendship, family, and life. Auggie is the catalyst for transformations in their lives, but readers will see sides of characters Auggie never would have known. Originally published as short e-books, the stories are explorations of kindness, each character demonstrating how it takes bravery to be kind, how, in the tricky business of navigating new situations, "it's always better to err on the side of kindness." Not only a companion to Wonder, but a wonder in itself. (Fiction. 8-14) COPYRIGHT(1) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
- Nicholas Sparks, #1 New York Timesbestselling author "Wonder is essentially ... a wonder. It's well-written, engaging, and so much fun to read that the pages almost turn themselves. More than that, Wonder touches the heart in the most life-affirming, unexpected ways, delivering in August Pullman a character whom readers will remember forever. Do yourself a favor and read this book – your life will be better for it."
Rebecca Stead, Newbery award-winning author of When You Reach Me
"Full of heart, full of truth, Wonder is a book about seeing the beauty that's all around us. I dare you not to fall in love with Auggie Pullman."
- Christopher Paul Curtis, Newbery award-winning author of Bud, Not Buddy "It is the deceptive simplicity and honesty of the work that make Wonder so memorable. Every single character seems real and well drawn and oh-so human...This book is beautiful."
- Clare Vanderpool, Newbery award-winning author of Moon Over Manifest "A beautiful story of kindness and courage. There are many real and well-developed characters, and they each have their shining moments. Of course, Auggie shines the brightest."
- Patricia Reilly Giff, two-time Newbery honor-winning author of Lily's Crossing and Pictures of Hollis Woods "Wonder is a beautifully told story about heartache, love, and the value of human life. One comes away from it wanting to be a better person."

Table 12 - Data Declaration
Agency Hate Crime Reporting by State, 2012
The FBI collects these data through the Uniform Crime Reporting Program's Hate Crime Statistics Program.
General comment
This table presents the total number of participating agencies, the population represented, the number of agencies that submitted data about hate crime incidents, and the number of incidents reported.
- Hawaii does not participate in the Hate Crime Statistics Program.
- New Jersey did not submit hate crime data for 2012.
Caution to users
Valid assessments about crime, including hate crime, are possible only with careful study and analysis of the various conditions affecting each local law enforcement jurisdiction. (See Variables Affecting Crime.) In addition, some data in this publication may not be comparable to those in prior editions of Hate Crime Statistics because of differing levels of participation from year to year. Therefore, the reader is cautioned against making simplistic comparisons between the statistical data of this program and that of others with differing methodologies or even comparing individual reporting units solely on the basis of their agency type.
The data used in creating this table were from all law enforcement agencies that submitted either of the following: (1) at least one National Incident-Based Reporting System Group A Incident Report, a Group B Arrest Report, or a Zero Report for at least 1 month of the calendar year; or (2) at least one Hate Crime Incident Report and/or a Quarterly Hate Crime Report. The published data, therefore, do not necessarily represent reports from each participating agency for all 12 months (or 4 quarters) of the calendar year.
Population estimation
The FBI calculated 2012 state growth rates using the U.S. Census Bureau's 2011 and 2012 provisional state/national population estimates. The FBI then estimated population figures for city and county jurisdictions by applying the 2012 state growth rate to the updated 2011 U.S. Census Bureau data.
