Three Crazy Years!*
Jeric posted a blog entry in Just JericThree years I joined this community on April 10th 2014, just about three years ago. I don't recall ever doing a 'forumversary' blog here, and I suspect that the reason why was simple; outside of some form of self-congratulatory pat on the back it seemed rather pointless for me. Basically, I didn't think I had much to say other than, 'I have been here x years'. This year though, I have words. I think that taking stock of where you have been, where your are now, and where you are going helps with perspective. I look back at the last three years with shock at how everything has changed in my life. Recalling what my life looked like in April 2014 and comparing it to April 2017 leads to mindbogglingly insane realizations of how dynamic our world can be. I want to use this blog series as a roadmap of sorts of my history here. Highlight my favorite events and times. I need to say this though. I will obviously mention other users who have impacted my time here, but I will try and stay clear of some highly emotionally charged moments. This time the elephant in the room and I will make peace. Basically, if you are looking for me to talk about forum drama, you will be disappointed. Over the next month I will focus on why I came here, and a few of the most impactful moments of my time among you all. *I am also publishing this a bit early since this week has quite a bit going on. Star Wars Celebration, Easter, Pony Premiers ... lots. April 2014 - A Wild Jeric Appeared This is my original Welcome Post There are some amusing lines in that first post. For one, you can plainly see that I had yet to become the "Prophet of Rarity" as I was called once. My first words on MLPF were a quote from the Princess Bride, and I talked briefly about my current job, family, and hinted at how I became a fan. I smile seeing who welcomed be to this forum. There were Destiny, a former head of Poniverse PR)who can be seen as @zenyatta, and Magos Amphrose currently going by @Bedman. Destiny in particular makes me smile knowing that several months later I would be working with her on staff. Magos though, I recall what I was thinking when I read his post. It confused the living hell out of me. What the hell is a Nyx? I love that comment about my avatar, which is what I am wearing today. There were members on this forum I noticed almost immediately. Some are no longer part of this community, and some are. Anyway, at this point, I was a Twifan. Rarity was waiting in the wings though. The World Cup - The Dawn of Fabulosity So for those that don't know, there used to be a strong vocal minority of Rarity fans on this forum. Forgotten names like @ghostfacekiller39, @Obsidian Sky, @GlowingFlask, @Blobulle @Andaasonsan and more were core people who you could find in the Rarity Fan Club. Others like @Woohoo, @ooBrony, @Sunny Fox, @A.V., and @Radiance64 would also heavily contribute to the fan club as well. It was something I noticed. Back then there was this sense that many disliked the character of Rarity, and that characters most fierce defenders did a hellova lot of in depth analysis on her virtues and flaws. I paid attention. It was impossible not to. Rarity started off being my least favorite of the mane six. I character I dismissed readily. I joined the forum as a fan of Twilight, and was still catching up watching the show, and what started happening was shocking. An early post, just four days after I joined, is found here I often post on social media and forum platforms with casual musings. I find it illuminating to go back and see what my train of thought was, and how it ended. I wonder if I ever did elevate Rarity to Best Pony status? The MLPF World Cup 2014 During this time there was a user created event called the MLPF 2014 World Cup. It basically amounted to a popularity poll with various characters facing off while the fans of the characters posted text and images to root them on and try and get support from other members. I wish I could say I was immune from that sort of thing. I am not. Actually I am being extremely unfair here. The users involved actually put together one hell of a topic This was @Sterling Crimson's brainchild but quite a few contributed. @Batbrony used his word crafting to actually do mock interviews with the characters whole RP'ing as Derpy and Dinky. There were anthems for each character, and flags designed as well. The conclusion was high drama as it turned out Luna fans created a few sock puppet accounts to cheat causing that characters disqualification. Fluttershy faced off against Rarity and eventually it was a Flutters vs. Twilight battle with Twilight taking the prize. Good times. Before the main matches began I made my first post in the RFC as they were asking for people to basically post ponies. There was no going back. Not satisfied with simply posting fabulous pony pics, I created a serious of nonsense short stories that became referred to as the Rarity Bible (and my role name). Celestia tells Rarity she is to face three tests here Rarity and the Epic of the Killer Crabs Here, here, here Rarity vs. Tom here Yeah. Jeric does ridiculous ... kinda bad and overly punny ... but I do it. Seriously though, that was a fun moment for most of the people who participated. Rarity came in third, which was surprising to even her die hard fans. It was during that time that I saw the first hints of this being different than most internet communities. The diversity here was off the charts, it felt a more welcoming than YouTube comments, and when I felt so inclined I could easily switch for choas mode to thoughtful and be taken seriously. I decided during the World Cup that this place may be worth chilling out at. That is a relative term since I tend to make posts in between or concurrently with IRL activities, but this was a time sink I felt was deserving of my spare moments. It wasn't because of what I felt I could contribute that kept me here, it was the interaction with the users and seeing the community at large that made it worthwhile. The crazies, the fierce debaters, the relaxed ones, the passionate types, and the philosophers seemed to congregate together. Don't get me wrong, I know I come across as this unrealistically optimistic goofball, but that is only one part of who I am. I suspected that there was simply more to this community that met the eye. Was there some high drama at this time. Of course! But, the moments of merriment outweighed the more explosive ones by far. I'm not a fan of the concept of a 'Golden Age'. Experiences are relative, yanno? This is more like that moment of discovery. There would be experiences down the road that would lead to immense highs, but this was an era that had its own charm to it. It is easy to lose site of that sometimes. That's it for now, but next up - Waifu Marriages by a real (not really) Minister. Yes, I am dead serious, this was a thing!

Top 10 Video Games based on Cartoons
Megas posted a blog entry in Megas75's BlogMuch like video games based on movies, games based on cartoons also have had a stigma for having....not so good games, some of which can be legendarily bad. But much like games based on movies, there are still those cartoon-based games that will break the mold and show us that there can also be good ones too. 10) Tiny Toon Adventures: Montana's Movie Madness(Gameboy) This game really surprised me when I was a kid. Unlike most others, I actually never got a Pokemon game with my Gameboy until much later. While my top games for the system were Donkey Kong and Legend of Zelda A Link's Awakening, but one other game that got as much attention as those was Tiny Toon Adventures: Montana's Movie Madness, a surprisingly challenging platformer with various movie themed levels. I adored it, a lot. Early on, both Capcom and Konami actually had their fair share of strong licensed titles and this was one of them. 9) Goof Troop(SNES) One of Capcom's many Disney games back on the SNES, and it is also the first game designed by Shinji Mikami, creator of the Resident Evil franchise and the Father of Survival Horror. Basic premise is that Goofy and Max were trapped on a pirate island and you have to save Pete and PJ. What makes this action-adventure game fun is the co-op mode where one player controls Goofy and Max respectively, and co-op mode can lead to some seriously great times. Playing it alone is a lot of fun too. 8) Sailor Moon: Another Story(SNES) A game that unfortunately is Japan only, Sailor Moon Another Story is a surprisingly good JRPG. Having an original story that takes place between the 3rd and 4th story arcs, the biggest selling point(at least for me) of the game was being able to control the Sailor Senshi as much like the anime, they all have their unique abilities that make them useful depending on the situation. And there's also multiple ending encouraging replayability 7) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time(SNES/Arcade) Another game from Konami's Licensed Catalog, Turtles In Time is one of the very, very few SNES arcade ports that didn't get neutered*coughfinalfightcough*. Despite not being able to play up 4-players in the SNES version, it's was actually able to add a lot to the SNES version like a couple more levels and tons of cutscenes and visuals faithful to the cartoon airing at the time. 6) Mickey Mouse's Magical Quest A Capcom platformer starring the Iconic mouse himself, it kept visuals that was some of the best on the system as well as staying true to Mickey Mouse as well as featuring some very fun and solid platforming 5) Ducktales(NES) I think the best way to describe this game is that it's basically a Megaman game if it was produced by Disney(helped by the fact that Keiji Inafune and most of the staff behind the series worked on it). It boast similar visuals, and a soundtrack and difficulty on par with Megaman. Plus Ducktales was the birth of the legendary pogo bounce. If you can there's a remake on the PCPS360U by Wayforward that's fairly faithful to the original game 4) Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom(PS2/Xbox/Gamecube) Another game that took me by surprise. Battle for Bikini Bottom is a strong platformer in vein of Super Mario Games like SM64 or Sunshine, where you collect golden spatulas in order to unlock more levels and defeat Plankton and his robot army. Has a pretty fun physics engine, tons of references to past episodes(back when the show was still good), and excellent use of the 3 characters Spongebob, Patrick and Sandy. The Spongebob Movie game is also pretty similar and just as good 3) South Park: The Stick of Truth(Xbox360/PS3/PC) What makes South Park The Stick of Truth so memorable to fans is that it is a South Park episode in almost every single way. The humor, the visuals, the voice actors are very true to the series. Tons of fanservice and being an overall fun RPG makes this game a favorite for fans as well as being a solid RPG 2) Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3 First off, DAT THEME SONG. That said Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3 is both a great love letter to fans and a solid fighter. It marks a high point in the Budokai series by getting rid of some of the fluff the first two games had, having a giant roster, and having tons of content that keeps you going. The movesets are much more manageable to make the game more balanced than the past games(though admittedly it's still unbalanced) and the Dragon Universe lets you play through the main story(as well as some movies) with multiple characters(though it's still a step down from Budokai 1's story mode). It also has a fairly large roster(at the time) featuring characters from every saga, as well as the movies and even a couple from GT and the original Dragonball. Also, again, DAT THEME SONG before I get to no.1, here are some honorable mentions, either because I never got to play them(but other people liked them) or because they just missed the mark: Honorable mentions: The Simpsons Arcade game the Sailor Moon Arcade game X-Men Mutant Apocalypse Dragon Ball Z Legacy of Goku 2 Budokai Tenkaichi 3 Naruto Clash of Ninja Revolution Chip n' Dale Rescue Rangers The Spongebob Movie Futurama The Simpsons Game Kim Possible What's the Switch Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law a Megas XLR game that'll never happen a decent Friendship is Magic game that'll never happen 1) The Simpson Hit and Run(PS2/Xbox/Gamecube/PC) When I say this is one of the best Grand Theft Auto games ever...I mean it. While it was a blatant GTA clone(much like how Road Rage=Crazy Taxi, and Skateboarding=Tony Hawk), one thing Hit and Run did what the other two failed to do was copy everything that made the original game good. While obviously the gratuitous violence isn't there, it's still a GTA clone, but a very excellent one. The game has it's own charm and fun that makes it stand out. The gameplay and car controls feel surprisingly great, missions are fun and diverse, exploring Springfield is a blast and the fanservice is glorious. If you love the Simpsons, or just GTA-style games, and haven't tried this game yet, you are doing yourself a huge disservice Also the soundtrack is excellent, which is something I don't say to most licensed game's OST EDIT: I'm pretty sure if I remade this list, Transformers Devastation would be no.1. Sorry, I still can't shut up about that game
First Excerpt
Namename. posted a blog entry in Universal Dimensions, Official StoryHello! Thanks for clicking on this blog, whether it was accidental or not, and welcome to the first excerpt of Universal Dimensions! Before anything, I would like to say that this is NOT pony fan fiction. Completely original and started from scratch at Google Documents! If you enjoy the first excerpt, and there is even just a few people requesting another excerpt, then I will gladly post another! Please, leave your opinions! This is all from scratch on Google Documents. If there are any grammar mistakes or any odd wording, remember that it is a rough draft. Not publishing format. It is always heavily debated with whether or not magic is bad. And, even though I always come to like it, and that I approve of it, I usually can't deny its bad causes, which has come in many ways for everything. I believe magic is absolutely necessary for everything; after all, without it, I never would have completed my "big mission." Magic is everywhere anyway, at least in my universe. It is used by your enemies, by you, and it flows as a powerful energy through everybody and through nature. It is only a natural force of power. Not only is it natural, but it is the basis and core of power for Angel and Daemon powers… Daemon powers, specifically. Daemons use dark spirited magic for the effect of triumph and strength, but Daemon magic is so "loose" and difficult to control that it instead is used as a much more powerful offense: curses. Curses come in all sorts of forms, but the overall definition for it is just Daemon magic enforced as an illness of cruel transition; in other words, dark spirited magic "approved" by Daemons to bring stress inside one, and duress on one. In fact, curses are one of the most dangerous effects of magic. They have different effects, varying through loss of self-control, head traumas, weaknesses, turncoat, and even Daemon transformations. Those who are infected with certain curses that grant strengths usually turn by to Daemon magic instead of "standard" magic. Standard magic is a privilege granted to regular humans, but it was never written as a rule for we people to take advantage of other powers. Standard, or nature magic, is a very strong force, with the powers of ice, fire, weather and plant life, but it just does not have such the abilities as of Daemon and Angel magic. Sure, there are staffs and weapons that consume magic for dozens of different effects, but the very magic comes from inside of you, so only those who are capable of magic, may use magic. Many people are trained by others to use magic. Very few carry it as an innate ability they are born with, people such as me; except I don't remember ever being young. I don't even know my precise age, which could possibly be late thirties, maybe even forties. I just always felt like I was there. Not since the transportation, but I can appreciate and like for what this place is, what my world is! Such a place for limitless discoveries and combat, with creatures of all sorts, almost everywhere you go… Such creatures also means such Daemons, and there seems to be more Daemon energy pulsing through life than Angel magic. Magic isn't even performed by humans very much anymore; we Mages aren't very easy to come across, and there used to be such a countless army of Mages, from what I know. But that was meant to be before I came here, and I feel like I am the only one of magic abilities. Axial and I, at least, but he is a Daemon anyway. I probably shouldn't even think about that, him being a Daemon, for even he is attempting to redeem himself and become an Angel again, but, with honesty, he is a long way from such an event, considering his actions and attitude since the first day we met. I still wonder to this present day if it was the best of my destiny to meet Axial. I do respect him, but, hell, he has a nerve for everything; but, like I said, he is a Daemon, but I do not know if that personality is natural for dark spirits. I still remember everything that happened the first day I met him… It was as soon as I stumbled into this universe, after I had successfully finished my "big mission," which I am not going to mention for a possibly long period of time, where I just found myself rummaged into the dirt ground. My body was aching from the universal warp explosion that sent me here, and even I refused to let myself. I rested there, with my face carelessly buried in the dirt, and just kept debating with myself what to do. It was only a few minutes when I felt some strong kicking against my back and a man's voice. "Hey, kid, come on. You okay?" I lifted my head up and looked to my left to see a tall, armored man with bloody cloth strapped over his shoulders on each side. His chestplate was engraved with some sort of chain of symbols, leading down in what I supposed would be some sort of message. He wore a mage's hat, and finally, he had wings. Huge wings, for a magic-enhanced human to have at least. His appearance made me look weak, comparing him to me in my robes, but these were the robes I have begun my life in, and what I shall end it in. Even though he saw I have noticed him, he kept kicking me anyway. "That blast better have been an accident. I don't want any people screwing around with nature or coming to this place." He helped me up from the ground, and when I finally stood on my weak, tired, sandaled feet, he studied me back and front. I didn't move, mostly because I was extremely tired, but because of the glimpse I had of his sword and long assault rifle. After about a few minutes, he finally approached me and asked me, "What's your name?" I ignored the pain and answered, "Crossten." He looked at me with a disgusted face. "You are named Crossten? There was only one, noble Crossten, and he isn't to be named after!" He came closer to me, too close for comfort. "What is your real name?" I don't understood why I never rebelled against what he said there at that moment. He did seem intimidating, but I knew it myself that I had the strength and stance to "tell him off" about that. But instead I just stood there, with a blank face. He looked at my robes again. "You look like a Crossten fanatic, that's for sure. Look at your clothing, trying to make a fake hero of yourself." He felt the blood stains, my blood stains of the robes. My final battle had left many marks of blood and bruises across my body, and even one, long, fatal scar across my right eye, directly from the one sword that I dodged for my life. "Even hurt yourself to get the same look," the man continued to criticize. Irritance was growing upon me. "I say who I am, and I am Crossten." He prepared to backhand me, and I easily put my arm up to defend it. Instead, he lowered his arm and sighed. "Come on, obviously you are hurt." He begun to walk back from where I supposed he came, and he waved at me to follow him. At the time, I didn't know where the hell I was, but, just considering what previously occurred before the "teleportation blast," I just figured this was all another universe. So I followed him, despite that our first encounter wasn't so friendly. I walked about a few yards behind him, and he looked back at me continuously. Somewhere halfway during the walk, he asked me out loud, "What are you?" I could only guess he was asking whether I was an Angel, Daemon, or just a human, so I answered human. He stayed quiet for a minute, and I decided to ask him, "What about you, then?" He stopped walking immediately, and he slowly turned to me with a depressed face. "Uh, Daemon." He gave me an unintentional cold stare, and I just strangely nodded. In the universe I came from, Daemons are hated as a major enemy; I mean, there isn't too much to explain why. In reality, they are just Daemons that are hated. So if he is a Daemon, and he is this comfortable around me, then it must be normal for such beings to walk "up here." I asked him anyway. "What are you doing here, then?" I could hear him grinding his teeth together, and he stopped and turned to me again. He sighed. "Look, I don't know who you are, but I am just gonna tell you this now, just so you don't wet yourself about it later. I am a Daemon from, of course, Hell, but, as you should know, we are 'fallen angels.' I didn't like or believe my fate. So I escaped, oddly as it may sound." He continued walking, and I followed.
Gaming Osu! (The freeware PC game)
Shiki posted a topic in Media DiscussionI was wondering if anyone else played the amazing game "Osu!" on the computer. If so, what's your favourite beatmaps? How good are ya'? What's the hardest beatmap you can legitimately beat? What's your favourite game type? What's your accuracy? Do you use a mouse or a different device? Any other questions that I can't think to ask right now? Personally, my favourite beatmap (which is also the hardest beatmap I can play without mods) would be this: My accuracy is 86.70% on standard Osu! mode, and 89.(some decimal, I forget)% in Taiko mode. I don't like catch the beat. Taiko > Standard... My best Taiko performance would probably be beating this: I almost full combo'd it.. but no, I had to go and miss 3 on the last section. Probably the most bittersweet victory of gaming history for me. I think I'm pretty good... I mean, for as little I play, I think I'm okay at the game.
10 Wii games that should be rereleased on the Wii U
Megas posted a blog entry in Megas75's BlogWith the recent announcement of Wii games being available for purchase at the Wii U eShop at yesterday's Nintendo Direct, fans have been feverishly thinking about what games they'd want to see get another release(and/or your like me wondering why they still can't get GC and N64 games on there, as well as DS games like they announced earlier). And while there's plenty of games on the system that should get another shot, seeing the Metroid Prime Trilogy coming soon made me think that it'd be the perfect opportunity for them to release games that either never got a chance here or are ridiculously expensive to get 10) Xenoblade Chronicles One of the 3 games that was part of Operation Rainfall, a movement meant to convince NoA to localize 3 certain JRPGs, and often considered one of the best RPGs of last gen(or at least best JRPG), Xenoblade Chronicles was only released in North America at Gamestops and is often hard to get without having to pay an organ for it. It'd be understandable if they didn't release it now since the New 3DS port of it is on it's way, but it'd be great to see it appear down the line for those who want to experience it on the console once Xenoblade Chronicles X rolls along 9) Last Story The second game of the Operation Rainfall trilogy and the latest console game created by the father of Final Fantasy Hironobu Sakaguchi. While it's not as ridiculously expensive a few other games on this list(about $30 for a used copy at Gamestop), it's still a relatively hard to find game, but it's a fun one 8) Pandora's Tower The 3rd game of the Operation Rainfall trio, and the least successful of the 3. I never got a chance to play it, and I'm still having trouble finding a copy, so all the more reason to put it here 7) Madworld This game's actually pretty cheap($10 new, $3 used at Gamestop), but good luck finding it. Madworld is a gloriously violent and incredibly fun game by Platinum Studios, but is unfortunately one of the Wii's many overlooked gems. With Nintendo's recent works with Platinum like Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2, seeing this on the eShop is only fitting 6) Captain Rainbow This is where the rereleases can really shine, releasing titles that never left Japan's shores Captain Rainbow has a small cult following on the internet and is one of many Japanese Wii titles that many people want to see. Judging from some of the videos and screenshots I've seen, I have no fucking clue what it's supposed to be about, which is probably what I want to see it more 5) Fatal Frame IV/Fatal Frame 2 Remake For some reason, after Nintendo received the rights to the Fatal Frame franchise, they've been held hostage in Japan. If they want to see if a market exists in the west(it probably does), it would be a good time to give the game a western release in time for Fatal Frame V(which I hope also releases in the US) 4) Disaster Day of Crisis An action-adventure game by Monolith Soft, the creators of Xenoblade, was released in just about everywhere but the US for some unknown reason. I remember being very excited for this game when I first heard about it and saw, so hearing that it wasn't going to be localized in the US was pretty soulcrushing 3) Zack&Wiki's Island Adventure Much like Madworld, it's pretty cheap, but much like that, it's also hard to find 2) Klonoa Klonoa is awesome. This game and this series deserves more love 1) Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn The sequel to the beloved Gamecube title, Path of Radiance. From what I've heard, it's the least successful titles in the series commercially. This along with the demand so high(especially after the surge of popularity the series recently got from Awakening) makes it one of the most difficult to get game in the series and on the system its on. I'm pretty sure a lot of people would prefer to get the game for $10-20 at the eShop as opposed to some of the ridiculous prices I've seen it go for I'm aware that there are tons of games I probably missed that people would undoubtedly like to see(like DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 3, which I've seen go up for $160 for some unholy). If you want, share your opinions on what you'd like to see come back on the eShop
Foods you like that everyone dislikes?
Fluttershyfan94 posted a topic in General DiscussionFoods you like that everyone dislikes? Inspired by the thread foods you dislike that everyone likes. - I like horse meat, many seem to dislike that. It's accepted in my country, it's not toxic like in some countries. Although I notice a lot of people dislike it on the internet. - Whale meat, like minke whale, tastes very good but it's not that popular though. - Mushrooms, many dislike mushrooms I love mushrooms. - Merikurat, it's a fish and it doesn't have the looks but tastes awesome. I opened one up and I found a paltus inside it. That's all I can think of at the moment, so how about you? Prepare for Merikurat!

Music Cynic's Mysterious Ambient Thread
Cynic posted a topic in Media DiscussionAlright, fellow Bronies. Lately, I've become a bit of a fan of ambient music-problem is, I don't know much. So, I made this thread so that all of you fellow ambient fans can share some amazing music! Anything that can be considered "ambient" is acceptable. Also, for those of you who are unaware of what ambient music is, Ambient music is a musical genre that focuses largely on the timbrel characteristics of sounds, often organized or performed to evoke an "atmospheric , "visual" or "unobtrusive" quality. I'll start. http://youtu.be/fnoOvzZu460
Gaming Video Games That Were Better Than Expected
Blue Moon posted a topic in Media DiscussionOkay, for this thread, you need to post games that you thought you wouldn't really like, but ended up actually liking them. Post a list of these games below, and although not required; explanation behind each entry. My list: The Binding of Isaac I don't tend to like top-down action games, so this game didn't really seem that appealing to me. However, my friend recommend that I played it, and I actually found it to be really good. I love how detailed the environment is, and I love how crazy your character looks as you get each new item. The soundtrack is amazing too. The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim I guess this one didn't seem that interesting from what I had saw of it. The combat looked kind of boring to me, and I didn't really see the appeal to it. But when I finally got the chance to actually play it; I was impressed by how detailed and interactive the world was. And the combat was more fun then I had previously thought. Hotline Miami Like with The Binding of Isaac, I was turned away from this game since it was a top-down action game. But, I eventually tried it, and I was pleasantly surprised. The ultra-violent combat was really nice, and I liked how you were just as vulnerable as the enemy, and as such; had to think carefully so you don't die instantly. And like with The Binding of Isaac, the soundtrack is amazing.

What is the worst thing that could happen right now?
Mr F posted a topic in General DiscussionJust like the title says, soory if it already exists. Right now it feels like nothing bad can happen at all here, and I am bored. Think about what is going on in the house, what is the really worst thing that can happen right now? How would you react to that and what is the best that can happen right now? the probably worst thing possible here is me falling asleep again.... -_- (soory if i placed this a bit wrong and had bad grammar)

Mine is 3 years back, i was visiting a friend that i have known for 18 years but only get to see about once a year, we were riding up and down his estate (which is on a hill) on pushbikes and decided to have a race from the top of the hill to the bottom. I get about halfway down the hill and a van starts coming up the hill on the wrong side of the road, so i hop on the pavement and continue, the van mounts the curb and i panic slamming my breaks on, i fly over the vans bonnet and wake up on the pavement, thinking i'm fine i get up and yell abuse at the driver and lift up my left arm, the driver looks shocked and drives off, my friend starts screaming, i look at my arm and see my hand flopped down. I had managed to snap my arm clean in half, bone sticking out, the whole deal, i carry my hand back into the house and we get an ambulance out, the first response guy tells me there's a 70% chance they will have to amputate my arm (something to do with dirt infecting the bone marrow). 3 Years down the line, i have two large scars down my arm and metal plates attached to my bone, it hurts when i move it too much and i cant lift weights or play guitar again, and being in England means that it gets rather cold in winter, which chills the plates in my arm making it rather painful. All in all, worst experience of my life, and the only bike crash i have ever had, strangely enough.

Ultra Fast Pony
wacarb posted a topic in Miscellaneous Fan ArtHi guys, I hope I'm putting this in the right spot. I have been making an abridged series, and I thought you might like to see it or something. The idea behind this series is, I wanted to make something short and simple. There are a lot of high quality pony parodies out there, but I thought to myself, "Maybe people just want a short, quick laugh, and frequent updates". Those other parodies out there are great and all, but I personally find them too long and too long between episodes. I wanted to make something short and simple, and, you wouldn't have to know anything about MLP FIM to understand. I was inspired mostly by the early Yugioh TAS episodes and Code Ment/None Piece. Most of all, I wanted a pony parody series that could be enjoyed by both bronies and haters, or even at least those people who are indifferent to MLP. I'm not sure if I have succeeded in that, but if you know any haters, feel free to try this series on them. I would really like to know what they think. Apart from that UFP is just a short silly thing I made one day, and then decided to continue on with. Even though it's not the most popular series out there, I have a lot of fun making it, and I hope you all have fun watching it too. wacarb (I'M BEING STUPID AND YOU CAN'T STOP ME!)
I drew... Rainbow Dash?
Radiance64 posted a topic in Visual Fan ArtYup, I sure did. It was kind of a challenge honestly, what with the wings, the colors, and the cutie mark(which I still think might be a little too big), but I think it turned out pretty well! If you think the coat is too dark, I used the lightest blue I had in my set of 24 colored pencils, so I did what I could! There is a rather noticible darker spot in the middle though, but I tried to color as lightly as I could here. I should also mention I used a guide, but I do tend to practice by drawing random OCs as well. Anyway, hope y'all like it!
Pony pics that give you the feels

I just want you to post them and share them with the community. Here are a few of mine that gave me ze feels. Now go nuts, I know you have them, now share them! Don't be greedy!
First Fan Fic
Lost posted a topic in Written Fan WorksSooo, I decided to write a fan fiction as I currently have writers block on my main project(a full length book based on League of Legends that has been stuck at 40ish pages for months) Please excuse poor grammar and spelling, I wrote this on an iPad and what the autocorrect doesn't play havoc with, the general lag from typing ruins. This is my first fan fiction and the first price of writing I have fully completed, it's also the first time I've written in first person(I decided to read the hunger games, it is written in first person and inspired me to do so too) I would like any feedback on this work, if you liked it but can't think of anything to say a brohoof would be nice Here it is:
Tell that to
Spark posted a topic in Forum GamesSo basically just come up with a phrase and then say tell that to (Someone who goes against that) YOLO? Tell that to Kinny.

In the fall of 1997, my mother was shocked to discover her baby could not ingest formula without getting sick. Regardless of the brand or type, I still could not drink it. She was very concerned and confused and went to multiple doctors to discover the reason. After visiting several doctors, my mother concluded that I have a severe milk allergy. Throughout my entire life, I have had to avidly avoid dairy products such as ice cream, chocolate, yogurt, cheese, etc. Doctors repeatedly told me that, with age, I would outgrow my allergy. However, the exact opposite occurred. The severity of my reactions worsened to now being practically fatal.
Allergies are a result of an overactive immune system that recognizes a harmless substance as a threat to the body. The brain triggers the system to produce immunoglobulin antibodies as a defense. The dispersal of the antibodies causes the allergic reaction. Doctors do not know the mechanism or reason why some allergies disappear over the course of someone's lifetime. A possible explanation for the disappearing allergies is that a person grows accustomed to the allergen. Regular exposure dulls the body's reaction to eventual disappearance. Doctors can predict whether or not a child will outgrow an allergy through a blood test that measures the number of immunoglobulin antibodies in the blood stream when probed with the allergen. When a person suspects he has outgrown an allergy, the allergist can conduct a "food challenge" and give the patient a small amount of the allergen and carefully watch the person's reaction. (Live Science)
So why do some children outgrow their allergies while others like myself do not? Studies suggest that 60-80% of children will outgrow a dairy allergy by age 16, 20% of children will outgrow a peanut allergy, and 4-5% will outgrow a shell fish allergy. However, if a person contracts multiple allergies than his chances of outgrowing the sensitivity are slim. Unfortunately, it is very common for a child to be born with more than one allergy. Along with dairy, I was also allergic to eggs and soy but outgrew both. (Healthline)
Johns Hopkins Children's Center conducted an experiment to discover how likely a person is to outgrow a dairy or egg allergy, two of the most difficult allergies to outgrow. The study followed 800 children with a milk allergy and 900 with an egg allergy for 13 years. The results showed that the allergies followed the children far into their teen and adult years; thus, the chances of outgrowing the allergen are extremely low. Robert Wood, M.D. of Hopkins Children states that over the course of 20 years more children are born with allergies than ever before and they are becoming harder and harder to outgrow. Also the sudden surge in allergies could be due to increased awareness. In previous decades, people were not as familiar with food allergies and some may have gone undiagnosed.
Unfortunately for me, I am still allergic to milk at age 19. I will most likely be allergic for my entire life. Certain allergens are easier to outgrow than others and some are actually permanent.

Former Aston Villa striker Dean Saunders believes Jack Grealish would be a waste of a signing for Tottenham, saying the 22-year-old wouldn't get a game if he moved to the Premier League club.
With only a few hours until the transfer window deadline, the Grealish saga is rumbling on.
Reports on Thursday afternoon claimed Spurs had tabled a £30million bid for the midfielder.
But Villa are determined to keep hold on their star asset and are understood to be ready to hand the youngster a new an improved contract to keep him at Villa Park.
Saunders believes Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy fouled up by waiting too long into the transfer window to make a bid.
However, the ex-Villans star believes a move to Spurs wouldn't have worked out for Grealish anyway.
Former Tottenham and Aston Villa boss Tim Sherwood told talkSPORT on Thursday morning that Spurs would be the perfect place for Grealish to thrive and take his career to the next level.
But Saunders believes he would struggle for regular game time if he moved to north London.
Speaking to talkSPORT host Jim White on Thursday, the Welshman said: "I can only think that Daniel Levy has thought, 'they are in desperate trouble financially, they've got to sell before they can get anybody in'.
"'So, let's just wait until they're in even bigger trouble and we'll nick in at the end and get him'.
"But then, all of a sudden, the rich owners have come in and things have changed.
"From Jack Grealish's point of view, when you look at Spurs' midfield players he's up against – Eric Dier, Christian Eriksen, Heung-min Son, Mousa Dembele, Harry Winks, Moussa Sissoko, Victor Wanyama, Dele Alli, Eric Lamela, Lucas Moura…
"How is he going to get a game?
"Yeah, he's got potential and he might fancy his chances there, but they would be signing a player who isn't going to get in the team."

Everyday brings something a little different for us. But it seems like every day is blanketed in sorrow.. like it blocks the sunshine from really penetrating. This weekend we took down most of the decorations out front of the house. Some of them were wrapped around the trees and bushes and for just a moment I smiled.. thinking how I would be doing this for her again one day when our house gets "T.Ped" because of her.. or when its decorated from a boy asking her to prom.
Two whole separate thoughts.. my mind had time for two daydreams before..
truth. death. reality.
A year out and I still forget .. I still can immediately go to the hope and the joy that was supposed to come with raising her to adulthood. I think I like it. I will be sad when I don't. Because right now her life is more apart of me then her death.
The realization of what we will never have is so sobering sometimes. But what I have is memories. Good ones. Bad ones and simply horrible ones. But they are ours. They are mine. We had friends over for a BBQ this weekend. At the end the other moms and I sat and talked. I shared all about her last birthday. What it was like being at the hospital.. step by step.. Hearing the letters DIPG and them having no meaning until it was followed by "there is no cure".
I know one of them had certainly heard all of it before. But they sat and listened. Im not exactly sure if I was even talking to them at that point or at them.. but oh I needed it. I hate that those memories feel like her to me. That talking about her illness is when I feel like she was real and she was here. Those times are the only ones that she feels 3d and complete to me. I really wish that wasn't the case, but that's how it is right now.
The good. The 5yr old and younger before cancer memories feel like a story I read about another little girl. .. It seems foreign. But those times in the hospital and hospice. Those times are the only ones that she feels 3d and complete to me. I really wish that wasn't the case, but that's how it is right now.These are my nearly tangible memories and I appreciated more than I can explain just getting to talk about them. Because the before cancer times are somehow false and hollow to me ..
Its different for Tony. Those times hurt him so deeply. So do videos. We are so different in those ways. .. But it means I can't talk with him about it very much. Its part of why I still write here. Because here is mine .. a way my mind can communicate with me through my fingers. I need it. But I also need to just allow my mouth to say the words sometimes.
Anybody reading this thats my friend in real life. Please allow it. Not just today.. But tomorrow and and all the tomorrows after that. Because I know I will always need it. Ask me questions that you already know the answer too. Because.. I don't get any more new answers when it comes to Jennifer. They have all already happened. And 6 years isn't very long is it? So there isn't all that much to tell. ..
So please let me say it.. the same things over and over again.. Please allow it..Please encourage it. And if you know a bereaved parent I would encourage you to ask them too. If they don't want to talk they won't. But if they do .. and you open up the gate for them. Welcome it for them. It means more than anything you can give or do.
These were 2 of my best friends. One of them was here wearing Baby Charlotte when Jennifer died in my arms… and took care of us for weeks afterwards. And even with them it was hard for me to push through feeling foolish telling the same stories about my Jennifer. So don't assume they know. Don't assume they don't want to talk about it.
Of course they might not.. but if they do.. but don't feel like they can. Then you can help them tremendously. Because it is so hard and lonely to have nothing new to share. So often late at night I just talk out loud to her. I share my memories of her with her. ..
i like our talks
i do jennifer
i do
i just wish..
i wish i could hear your voice again.

Description: The aim of this project is to investigate the influence of speech (direct vs indirect speech) on source memory. The literature suggests that the use of direct speech leads to more vivid mental representations than indirect speech. Where direct speech seem to focus on the exact wording that is used (i.e., what was said), we hypothesize that indirect speech focuses on source memory (e.g., who said what).

Zhou Tianyong, an economist from the Party School of the Central Committee of Communist Party of China, told the Global Times on Friday that China's economic growth rate in 2015 was 6.9 percent, official figures indicated, the first time that the official rate has been below 7 percent in six years. According to his research, demographics play a major role.
周五的时候,中央党校经济学家周天勇告诉《环球时报》说,官方数据显示中国2015年的经济增长速度是6.9%, 六年来首次降到7%以下。根据他的研究,人口因素起了很大的作用。
Zhou said that a shrinking labor force led to the soaring of labor costs, which directly affects the country's exports. Meanwhile, the aging population raises challenges for the country's social security system.
He added that a fall in the working-age population would affect the country's consumption, as well as leading to the decline of rigid demands such as houses and cars, and would further contribute to the surplus of cement, steel, and coal.
"If the country lacks industrial demand, exports, consumption, investment will definitely shrink, along with economic growth," said Zhou.
Zhou's research found a strong correlation between economic and population growth between 1974 and 1994, leading him to predict more future pressures.
The number of people aged between 16 and 59 will decrease to 896 million in 2020 and 824 million in 2030, while the number of those aged 60 and over will grow to 253 million in 2020 and 365 million in 2030, according to new data provided by the Population and Development Studies Center at the Renmin University of China to the Global Times.
Data from the National Bureau of Statistics shows that in 2015, China's working age population was 911 million and there were 222 million senior citizens.
Zhou's opinion was echoed by Yi Fuxian, a long-term critic of China's family planning policy and a scientist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the US, who warned that China has entered a "low fertility trap."
"China's current demographic structure is severely distorted, as the country now faces problems such as low fertility, an aging society and gender imbalance. This may hinder economic development as well as social stability in the long run," said Mu Guangzong, a professor at Peking University's Institute of Population Research.
However, Song Jian, a professor specializing in demographics at the Renmin University of China, said that China's economic development mainly depends on economic restructuring and industrial policy adjustment.
"Compared to the quantity, the quality of population is more important. Many senior citizens are still participating in social activities," said Song.

ACCESSION #: 9503100278 Con Edison memorandum March 8, 1995 INDIAN POINT STATION TO: Stephen Quinn Vice President, Nuclear Power FROM: Charles W. Jackson Manager, Nuclear Safety & Licensing SUBJECT: Preliminary Evaluation per 10 CFR Part 21 Report of Condition: NUPRO Check Valves A preliminary evaluation has been performed to determine if the condition reported could create a substantial safety hazard and is thereby reportable under 10 CFR Part 21. The results of this preliminary Evaluation indicated that the subject condition is reportable. The preliminary evaluation justifying this determination is attached. Accepted: Date: Time: NUPRO Check Valves On January 23, 1995 while preparing to install a NUPRO Model SS-53S4 1/4 inch Lift Check Valve it was determined that the flow arrow marked on the valve body pointed in the wrong direction. Nine other valves delivered in the same lot were also marked incorrectly. The valves had been purchased in August 1994 as commercial grade items for safety related service and were dedicated by Con Edison. A function check was not performed. our dedication plan has been revised to include a functional check on all similar valves in the future. We have determined that a substantial safety hazard did not exist since none of these valves had been installed in the plant. However, since it is possible that they could have been installed in safety-related applications and since the non-conformance had been found after receipt inspection and dedication, we believe that a defect, as defined in 10 CFR, 21.3(d)(1), did exist and, for that reason, this initial notification as required by 10 CFR 21.21(c)(3)(1) is being made. The vendor, NUPRO, has been informed of this condition and, upon investigation, they believe it to be an isolated case caused by human error. Further information, including corrective action will be supplied to the NRC, in the 30-day written report required by 10 CFR, 21.21 (c)(3)(ii). *** END OF DOCUMENT ***

Middlesex County Man Admits $2 Million Fraud Involving Bogus Small Business Administration Loan
NEWARK, N.J. – A New Brunswick, New Jersey, man today admitted defrauding a bank by fraudulently using a federally-backed $2 million small business loan on personal expenses, Acting U.S. Attorney William E. Fitzpatrick announced.
John Cheng, 58, of New Brunswick, New Jersey, pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Claire C. Cecchi in Newark federal court to an information charging him with loan application fraud.
According to documents filed in this case and statements made in court:
On Dec. 7, 2007, Cheng submitted a Small Business Administration (SBA) loan application for $1.75 million and a commercial loan application for $2 million, purportedly for financing relating to a restaurant in Skillman, New Jersey.
The loan applications were submitted to an independent lender through the SBA Loan Guaranty Program, which authorizes the SBA to provide financial assistance to eligible small businesses through loan guarantees to participating lenders. Rather than loan money directly to small businesses, the SBA provided a guaranty to the independent lender that the SBA would repay a percentage of a loan in the event that a borrower defaulted.
Cheng's SBA loan application falsely stated that the loan would be used for construction, acquisition of machinery and equipment, and working capital. After receiving $2,082,229 from the victim bank in March 21, 2008, Cheng used the funds for his own benefit, including paying off gambling debts, sending money to family members, and paying a federal tax bill.
The charge to which Cheng pleaded guilty is punishable by a maximum potential penalty of 30 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, or twice the gross gain or loss from the offense. Under his plea agreement, Cheng must pay restitution of $2,657,687.15 to the bank he defrauded and forfeit $1,696,506. Sentencing is scheduled for Oct. 25, 2017.
Acting U.S. Attorney William E. Fitzpatrick credited special agents of the FBI, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Timothy Gallagher in Newark, with the investigation. He also thanked the U.S. Small Business Administration's Office of Inspector General, Eastern Region, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Kevin Kupperbusch, and the Office of the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (SIGTARP), under the direction of Special Inspector General Christy Romero, for their assistance.
The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jacob T. Elberg, Chief of the U.S. Attorney's Office Health Care and Government Fraud Unit in Newark.
Defense counsel: Steven D. Altman Esq., New Brunswick, New Jersey

Testemunhos de antigos clientes e amigos que se cruzaram connosco sobre nós e os nossos serviços
Descobri a It's All About Dogs através da loja de animais que frequentava, penso muitas vezes que se tenho o cadela fantástica que tenho hoje em muito devo agradecer à Cláudia, as aulas de sociabilização para cachorros foram o melhor que poderia ter feito pela Roxie. Como dona de 1ª viagem na altura não fazia ideia de qual era a forma mais eficaz e correcta de educar a Roxie. A Cláudia mostrou-me o caminho certo a seguir no que respeita à sua educação, mostrou-me a importância de ter uma cadela com conhecimentos básicos de obediência, utilizando sempre métodos de reforço positivo. Hoje a Roxie com pouco mais de um ano vai a todo o lado connosco e porta-se muito bem, faz o senta, o deita, o fica e o finta e já não destrói nada em casa 🙂
Obrigada Cláudia por tornares tudo isto possível.

To whom it may concern,
Claudia worked for us during 07/08 as a behaviourist for our rescue dogs in private boarding kennels or foster homes and those already in homes with problems.
She would assess the dogs in kennels and foster homes and initiate training programmes if necessary, also teaching kennel staff or fosterers how to execute this.
She would also assess dogs already in homes for training , (again teaching the owners) or suitability for re-homing.
After a dog had been re-homed and there were problems she would attend and attempt to help the owners overcome this to prevent it's return.
Claudia's training had a very high success rate and was done with the utmost kindness. She is clearly very knowledgeable regarding dogs and committed to helping them regardless of it being her profession, she worked for us voluntarily as well as paid as she knew how desperate we were.
As well as her talent with dogs she is extremely good to work with,a lovely personality, caring but honest and strong, a true professional.
We strongly recommend Claudia to anyone requiring help with dogs and would welcome her back to ourselves at any time.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if so required.
Yours truly

Claudia worked with me as an assistant dog trainer in my classes in London for over a year until her return to Portugal. During this time I was constantly impressed with not only her skills as a dog trainer, but her passion for working with people and animals and her commitment to work.. Claudia has a lovely approach to training which is very practical, kind and effective.
She communicates well with clients and shows a commitment to helping people communicate effectively with their dogs to enhance both their lives and that of their dogs. What made this even more impressive was Claudia was able to do this effortlessly in a language that was not her mother tongue!
If Claudia ever returns to England I would not hesitate to offer her a job as during her time working with me she was an asset to my business"

As some of you know I was a big fan of the show right from the start. I started watching back when it premiered on September 23rd, 2003 at that time I was only 13. I watched 1-4 live but life and other shows got in the way of me being a regular viewer, but tonight I tune in to say goodbye to a show that started my tv obsession and accounts for 50% of my music library (Most songs I play daily).
I am also considering making a rewatch notes page for OTH just like im doing with "Chuck".
Share your thoughts on the show in the comments below.
The "One Tree Hill" 2 hour series finale kicks off tonight at 8/7c on The CW Network.

Ráwen Darkstar is an Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition character (originally 3rd edition, then backported). She is technically a half-elven thief/fighter, but her ancestry is actually 3/4 elven, 1/4 human, and she only has one level in fighter. Within her party, she was best known for her foul mouth and apparent inability to climb a rope without knocking herself unconscious in the attempt. (That's not a joke. Well. It is but it's also true, and the joke is on me and my bratty dice.)
The last guy she trusted had been her pupil in the thieves' guild, whom she slept with before finding out he was a badass vampire who'd screwed her over six ways from Sunday. She figures people understand if she's on edge, because bloodboy is still at large after gnawing on a traveling companion's arm like it was beef jerky.
Despite her delicate elven features and deeply-buried compassion for others, Ráwen is a downright jerkass whenever she can remotely get away with it. She has tricked a traveling companion into posing as a gigolo, griped about having to search for a lost infant (because at least it wasn't around for her to feed), and insulted a mighty vampire's manhood after being beaten and thrown out a window. She was barely conscious, but she swore him out anyway.
Maybe she does actually care—but if that's the case, she does a damn good job of hiding it. And that's exactly the way she likes things to be.
Over time, Ráwen's party members learned not to assign her the second watch of the night, because she gets extremely grumpy if shortchanged on sleep. She also has the distinct habit of lumping cleric and wizard spells into the same category, which she labeled "juju" whenever the subject was raised.
Family history
|Grandpa Darkstar
(♂ human)
|Grandma Darkstar
(♀ wood elf)
|marriage ended with Grandma Darkstar's desertion
|Morwen Darkstar (♀)
|Morwen Darkstar (♀)
|anonymous ♂ elf
|Morwen's lover abandoned her before Ráwen's birth
|Ráwen Darkstar (♀)
Ráwen's maternal grandfather, Grandpa Darkstar, married an elf. They had a child together, but his wife couldn't bear to see her husband and daughter age so rapidly (by her elven estimation). Grandma Darkstar returned to her people, leaving her distraught husband to raise little Morwen alone.
Morwen grew into a lovely half-elven woman. Like her father before her, Morwen fell in love with an elf. Unfortunately, Morwen's lover regarded her as a mere fling. He departed before Ráwen was born. Morwen gave her own surname to her daughter. Ráwen knows who her father is and does not care to meet him.
When Ráwen was about nine years old, Morwen and Ráwen moved into Grandpa Darkstar's home to care for him. He died within the year. Soon after, Morwen was horrifically assaulted in an apparent anti-elf crime. She entered a fugue state and never recovered.
Ráwen began stealing to keep her and her mother alive, and try to heal her mother's mind. She came to the notice of the Thieves' Guild, which brought her in. Whatever money Ráwen makes that doesn't go to the Guild, goes to Morwen's continued care in the home of a trusted family friend.
"Ráwen" is supposed to be Quenya (Elvish) for "lion woman". Any translation error is mine.
Lady Knight was created as a loose analogue for Ráwen. They share gender, similar ancestry, and a penchant for taking other people's belongings, among other similarities.

Georgia Tech's Virtual Ecological Research Assistant (VERA) uses Smithsonian Institution's Encyclopedia of Life (https//eol.org) to help construct models of ecological systems and answer questions about ecological phenomena. VERA is intended to support both student scientists from middle school to college and citizen scientists from nature observers to project managers.
Using VERA, people without scientific training can run simulations with real-world data to answer questions like, "If the weather is sunnier, and the plants in my ecosystem grow faster, how many more deer can I expect in my area?" The user could then explore how an increase in the deer population might affect the area's wolf population, for example.
The researchers hope VERA will expand the community of people who can use ecosystem modeling to better understand our world and inform decision making. In addition to bringing ecological simulations within the reach of communities and citizen scientists, VERA can be a useful starting place for ecologists and student scientists because it provides a research workflow that makes it easier to answer complex scientific questions without specialized training.

Now that you have awarded a grant or scholarship and written a powerful case study about your company's impact, you can move on, right? Not so fast. A story that reveals your company's impact is one you want to keep in your back pocket. A compelling story can be used in a variety of ways for a wide range of different audiences. From potential donors and investors to clients and colleagues at conferences, there are a number of ways you can get your story in front of important stakeholders.
Presentations are a particularly great way to tell a story about your company's impact. Stories are more memorable and persuasive to listeners than dry reporting or data-filled presentations. Structuring a presentation as a story is a perfect format for sharing how your company is changing lives.
Location, Location, Location
Before you begin creating your presentation, it's important to think about your audience and where you will be speaking to them. You will need to create different versions of the story you want to tell depending on your location. One-on-one meetings with potential investors will require one type of storytelling, and presenting at a conference will call for an entirely different form of storytelling. Be sure to consider your setting before you begin crafting your presentation. Will you be in a big room? Outdoors? Will you have access to audio-visual aids if needed? Get creative with your setting if possible. For example, if your awardee is building or designing a project, consider telling the story of your awardee's vision at the site where the project will take place.
Choose a Storyteller
As you consider where you will be and who you will be speaking to, spend some time thinking about who can best tell your story. Your marketing department is likely filled with good storytellers, but be sure to identify other possible storytellers, too. For example, the person who received your grant or scholarship is in an ideal position to tell their own story—and the story of your company's impact on their life. Additionally, donors and investors can share why they support your company's work and client-facing staff can share stories of their interactions with clients. While a polished story may be best in some settings, an authentic, heartfelt story from a source outside your marketing department might be ideal in others.
Identify Your Main Idea
Before you begin putting your presentation together, be sure to identify the main idea you want to convey to your audience. It will be important to keep this idea running through the story as a theme. Repeating key points is helpful to listeners and can be a good way to emphasize your main idea as you progress through your story. If you are using slides to accompany your presentation, be sure to use bold titles that call attention to your main idea. And remember, your story should have three parts: the problem, the journey to find a solution, and the resolution. Be sure that your listeners leave with a clear understanding of why your story is important.
Make Your Audience the Hero
Understanding your audience is crucial to storytelling, and keeping your audience central to your story is essential. Presentations depend on an audience and it is important to ensure that your audience sees themselves as the heroes—or potential heroes—of your story. For example, if you are speaking to a potential donor, your storytelling should communicate how becoming a donor will give them the power and reward of having changed lives. Alternately, if you are giving a presentation at a large conference, you might want your audience to feel empowered and motivated to implement some of your company's strategies in their own workplaces. Every good story appeals to both logic and emotion, but crafting the right presentation requires knowing how to best appeal to particular listeners. What motivates your audience? Why did they show up to hear your story? Answering these types of questions will help you identify how to help your audience feel like they are the heroes of your story.
Choose Images Deliberately
If you are creating a presentation with slides or images, be sure you are using images that enhance your story. Unless you are relaying data, keep the text on your slides minimal. Bold titles that call attention to your main ideas or themes are often helpful, but too much text can be distracting to both you and your audience. Ideally, you will want to use images that show how your company is changing lives or helping to generate new ideas. It should go without saying that using real images, rather than stock photos, will make your presentation more memorable and persuasive. Video clips of your awardee's story can also be a powerful touch.
Be Friendly and Approachable
Using a friendly, conversational tone during presentations will draw listeners in. Whether the setting is informal or formal, addressing the audience directly and making eye contact, if possible, will help audience members feel connected to you and the story you are telling. If you are using slides, practice your presentation several times so that you do not have to rely on slides. Don't be afraid to let your facial expressions and body language shine through in the storytelling. If you are authentically animated, your audience will respond well. And if appropriate to your setting, audience, and the story you are telling, using humor can be a great way to connect listeners to your message.
When it comes to creating presentations to tell a story about your company's impact, there are many different settings, scenarios, and audiences to prepare for. It can often be helpful to create a longer story—such as one you might present at a conference—and then adapt different versions of this story for different settings and audiences. Keep in mind that your adaptations should reveal how each distinct audience can be the hero of your story. You will also want to consider how to tell the story in different formats. Creating digital, print, and oral versions of the story will also help you get your message in front of a variety of audiences.

Solace club is ready to rumble
MUAY THAI: Eighteen members of the Solace Muay Thai gym in Ballina will compete in the club's Fight Night at Kirra Sports Club, Coolangatta, on Saturday night.
The first running of the event is being held on the Gold Coast, with Cherry Street bowling club to host the second event in Ballina early next year.
There will be weigh-ins as a pre-fight event at the bowling club tomorrow night at 6.30pm, with competitors coming from Adelaide, Gold Coast and Sydney for the Saturday show.
Solace Muay Thai gym owner and event organiser Spiro Darzanos has built the night from scratch with Gold Coast promoter Nick Atkins.
He was thrilled to have so many members of his Ballina gym competing.
Most of them will be fighting for the first time having just completed a 10-week challenge.
"There's been blood, sweat and a lot of tears," he said.
"They're not quite there yet but they've just about completed something pretty special.
"We've got a professional main event with Jemma Lee Byard in her 13th fight as a pro.
"She actually started out as a first time challenger at one of these events so it will be pretty cool for our guys to see that.
"Our whole concept is aimed at getting a show like this to Ballina and making sure we bridge the gap between Gold Coast and Sydney.
"It will be great for Ballina when we find our feet with a show early next year and it can be something the whole region can get behind."
Solace members John Slade and Alex Ziedan will fight later in the night having already competed in the ring.
"John will be on before the main event; he's only 16 and he's stepping up to take on a 23-year-old," Darzanos said.
"He has another fight in Brisbane in a few weeks and will be fighting full Muay Thai rules for the first time here.
"The whole idea is to be able to get these guys competing in front of their friends and family and showing them what they can do."
Tickets can be purchased at https://events.ticketbooth .com.au/event/Ballina-fight- challenge
The show is scheduled to start at 7.30pm (NSW time).

Shelton teen is recognized for service to the community
Selected among several local outstanding youth, Shelton teen Freddy Dapp will compete against other Boys & Girls Club across the state for the Connecticut Youth of the Year title and a $1,000 college scholarship from Tupperware Brands Corp.
As the new Youth of the Year for Boys & Girls Club of the Lower Naugatuck Valley, Freddy is being recognized for his character, leadership skills and willingness to give back to the community.
Being named Youth of the Year is the highest honor a Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) member can receive. Awardees are selected based on contributions to family, school, community and local Boys & Girls Club, as well as overcoming personal challenges and obstacles.
"My life was forever changed the moment I walked into the Boys & Girls Club of the Lower Naugatuck Valley," said Freddy. "I went in timid and self-conscious. I had no motivation to better myself and grow."
A positive attitude
According to Boys & Girls Club officials, Freddy exudes a positive attitude that many adults in the same situation would be hard pressed to show.
He possesses a work ethic that has taken him past all obstacles in reach of his goals. "Freddy is full of energy, life, and ideas that he consistently sees to fruition," local Boys & Girls Club officials said.
School service project
Freddy came to the Shelton clubhouse through a high school community service requirement and gave back far more than what was required of him.
"I was a scared kid that did not have any guidance," he said. "My journey began with community service that was a mandatory requirement for my high school.
"But I realized," he continued, "that I could look at the hours as an opportunity to change the lives of kids that were in similar situation as I once was. Mentoring the members at club also helped me learn more about myself. I liked who I was becoming and gained the motivation I was lacking before."
Served on club's nationwide council
After completing his volunteer hours, he continued on at the club. In 2012 he was selected as one of a dozen teenagers nationwide to be part of BGCA's Teen Advisory Council, serving as the liaison between BGCA and youth in the community.
Freddy played a large part in the start up of the local Interact Club and now serves as event coordinator in the group. "I discovered that we all have the power to choose the path to our future," he said.
If Freddy wins at the state competition, he will compete at the regional and then national level. The national winner receives a $50,000 scholarship and the chance to meet the U.S. president in the White House.
The local Boys & Girls Club had two others competing for the Youth of the Year honor — Jessica Cipriano and Jevonne Lashley.

HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Nov. 30, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- United-Guardian, Inc. (NASDAQ:UG), a manufacturer of cosmetic ingredients, personal and health care products, pharmaceuticals, and specialty industrial products, announced today that the company's Board of Directors, at its meeting on November 29, 2017, declared both a semi-annual dividend of $0.50 per share and a special dividend of an additional $0.50 per share. When added to the $0.42 per share dividend the company paid in June 2017, this brings the total dividends paid by the company this year to $1.42, the most ever paid by the company in one year. Both dividends will be paid on December 18, 2017, to all stockholders of record as of December 11, 2017.
"We are pleased to be able to pay both a semi-annual and special dividend this December" stated Ken Globus, President of United-Guardian. "With strong 2017 sales, as well as confidence that 2018 will be strong as well, the Board concluded that in light of the company's strong cash position it would be appropriate to distribute a special dividend this year.
