@HeatBombastic Heh, well I do like the region, and the fact that we have a full 3D overworld is nice. :3
Looks meh. Trailer didn't show much and new pokemon look lame, but I'll pick one or the other up regardless~
@SCAR392 At this moment in time especially, the Wii U is nowhere near as good as the PS360. It can't even get developer support for their ports - what about when next gen rolls around?
and yeah, Wii U needs to either find a new demographic to target or Nintendo need to give it individuality from the Wii, since so many are considering it to be some sort of Wii add-on or peripheral.
I'll wait and see what happens with this; Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks weren't to my tastes, and this looks similar-ish.
Pleas pick this up for us in Europe, Ghostlight. Please! The chances of Atlus doing anything are as non-existent as ever.
@Melkaticox Did you even read the article? The majority of the Tales fanbase is based on the PS3, making it the best system to develop for.
Who cares if the Wii U "wins"? Provided Nintendo get around to releasing some good first party software, I'll be happy. My PS3/4 I'll keep for third party games, because in all honesty the Wii U was never going to be able to compete against this generation for that support, let alone the next gen.
This is a great article, hopefully we see more of these in the future from NL~ As for what Pachter says, I agree. Aside from Nintendo dropping out of the console market - I can't particularly see the Wii U being a huge success but that analysis seems slightly drastic. Still, the majority of the time he is correct and has good reasoning to back up his arguments too.
This is hilarious. Some of you Ninty fanboys would be overjoyed if Nintendo crushed your house and stole every item in your possession due to your blindness. Especially @drunkenmaster. You can be a Nintendo fan without praising every move they make, and as every company does at some point, Nintendo has made a bad mistake here. It's better to acknowledge that than buy every single one of the lame ports/games being produced by third parties, claiming the Wii U somehow has amazing games and support, and you can't possibly understand why nobody would want to buy a £300 console for half-baked ports available on other consoles for a quarter of the price.
@Melkaticox Let me guess, you hate Sony because you own Nintendo consoles?
You're clearly being very hypocritical there.
I'm still waiting on localisations of Tales of Innocence / Hearts R at the moment, but I guess it would be nice if Namco went multiplatform so everyone can experience how amazing the Tales series is~
At least things are looking up for the Wii U to an extent at least. The only way is up! Still some good competition between the 3DS & Vita though, which hopefully means lots more awesome games for both systems!
Atlus need to hurry up and get a European sector so we can actually get some of the awesome games they develop, especially considering how the 3DS is region locked. u_u But yay, at least we're getting it this year! (Hopefully, anyway)
That 'thing' looks like a squished GBA crossed with a PSP. D: That said, considering current Wii U sales I can see why they'd turn to other devices though.
Wii U sales rise from 6K to 14K in Europe: Wow what amazing sales!
Vita sales rise from 20K to 60K in Japan: lol, Sony couldn't even outsell the 3DS for more than one seek.
The Wii U needs games. Or a price cut. Or preferably both, and soon.
Those are still some nice Vita sales. If the console can sustain those sales hopefully that means more games, more sales, more competition, and ultimately, more awesome games!
The Wii U on the other hand...
Eh, it's not like $30million is gonna have a huge effect on Nintendo, especially when you consider the several billion they already have lying around in a bank account.
@DaemonSword Nope, but if you sign up for PS+ then you get a free Vita game pretty much every week, which is always awesome!
Now this is interesting! Hopefully this means more Vita software and, as a result, hopefully more good 3DS releases from Nintendo too. And wow, the Wii U needs some help. D:
That's SE code for, "We know you'd like a localisation, but I'm sure you'll prefer Bravely Default: ios Edition & Final Fantasy XII-4! Coming Westward 2014!"
@AJWolfTill Do you mean Shin Megami Tensei games in general, or the Devil Survivor series only? Since there are quite a lot of other SMT games.
If you just want to start playing the Devil Survivor games, Overclocked is an enhanced port of the first game, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor, which saw no or very limited release here in Europe iirc. At the moment there are only two games in the Devil Survivor series, Devil Survivor and Devil Survivor 2, however 2 is still yet to release here.
Basically, buy this. Its an enhanced port of the first game and is a great way to get into the series. If you like it, you can get Devil Survivor 2 when it release soonish. It should also be a good way to get into other SMT games too.
Awesome! It's finally worth buying the game if like me, you live in Europe! I think I'll pick this up sometime shortly after release now.
Well, that's £40 to spend on another game! Specifically, Fire Emblem Awakening when it releases here in April.
@Spark_Of_Spirit Perhaps Ubisoft feel if they release it at a later date on the PS3/360 that will decrease the sales on those platforms? Then again the clash with the release of GTA V would then have to be either a huge mistake or an oversight on their part; which only makes me think we may see another delay in the future.
But still, I don't feel people should boycott a game just due to a delay. Then again, the only ones losing out are themselves, right?
@Spark_Of_Spirit There is in releasing it on multiple platforms though and reaching out to an audience of about 70 times the size of the one currently on Wii U. There's no point running the pointless risk of losing money just so they can go 'Hey, we kept the game exclusive!' to a few Ninty fans.
Haha, so many people saying they're no longer going to buy the game. Well, if the sales do end up being low, that's sure to regain Ubisoft's confidence in Nintendo.
Why does nobody understand that game companies go where the money is? The Wii U is selling just barely reasonably; they've hardly got much of an audience to sell to with the current user base of around 2.5 million.
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE 3D EFFECT PEOPLES! ITS NOT AS IF KONAMI ARE SELLING IT ON THE 3DS BECAUSE IT'S SOLD MORE THAN THE VITA OR ANYTHING /sarcasm
Seriously, what a lame excuse.

Looking for #2:
Mine is usable; however, a small piece appears to be broken off so looking for a complete one.
Looking for #2:
Mine is usable; however, a small piece appears to be broken off so looking for a complete one.
Got that also
Just go balls to the wall and buy an entire block for really cheap.
Loads. It's a white 325e, wayyyy at the back, second to last row, 4th or 5th car in on the north side of the row.
everything from the TB to the airbox was gone, and I took the ICV, and cut a bunch of connectors off of the harness. Other than that, the engine is intact. There is 0.00% of the exhaust still on the car. If you want a 4dr blue vinyl comfort interior (and door cards), you're in luck.
Thanks guys. I bought a new one from Blunt. 8 bucks or something.
I need to go out there - last time I was there I had to take axles out of an old Ranger to put in a Mustang lol (5 lug conversion).
Sorry for the late reply's to all of this - I seriously forget to check this board for some reason. Too bad it's not on tapatalk...
I need to go look at this thing for a dipstick tube as well. Dammit. What a pain in the ass this tube is becoming.
Jebus, 1900 for a iX engine... wish I would known, I have a bare block with a 2.7 crank in it from a 91 with 130k taking up space in my gargae.
I know man but I was sick of effing around with used junk. I had a line on another short block from another member but I couldn't tolerate any more variables.
I literally ordered the block and pistons from the realoem part number through Blunt. The thing of it is, we thought we were getting a short block but it ended up coming with a few less parts. To be honest, it wasn't THAT big of a deal as I was quoted 1000 bucks to do the machine work (by a very reputable shop) and then .050 over Mahle pistons were another 600 (pistons, pins, rings) so at that point, what's another couple hundred for a block from BMW? I had the crank checked and polished and rods checked for alignment at Crank Shaft Supply which was an extra hundo but whatever. Is what is is at this point.
I have a TON into this car. Like ridiculous amounts lol but it's all been done exactly right with new OEM parts. I paid 3450 for the at the end of January and I have at least 4K into the motor, misc. parts, brand new Bilstein/H&R suspension, new everything in the front accept the rack, and new brakes and lines all the way around, I mean you name it it will be gone through.
I plan on restoring the whole thing and driving it every day and keeping the M3 for a fun car. Like any iX, things weren't supposed to get this out of hand but I'm one of those people that can't just put stuff back together if there are other items that need attention so basically have had this car mechanically down to nuts, bolts and a pile of parts.
I'll post a nice long thread of the build (or maybe do a blog or something) when I get some time. It's been a hell of a trip thus far but I don't even feel like it's halfway done. Once the motor is back in and working, I still need to worry about the transfer case. It works great but when I started getting into things, I pulled the plug out of the t-case and there was ZERO fluid in it. Like not even a friggen drop so who knows how long that's going to last.
The car is an automatic which might not be looked upon as "cool" or "proper" here but I'll tell you what, it's a damn nice commuter when it's working I had an auto in my 335i and loved it because there was so much torque (tuned as well). The M3 is an SMG and I wouldn't have had an E46 any other way to be honest. I just don't miss having a clutch pedal at all. Any M3 for me will have a DCT no question.
Anyway, getting of track a bit but yeah. This should be a damn good iX when I'm done with it. I would do a 5MT in it if I can get the parts right because I think it really would make a legit difference in a car with such a small amount of power to begin with but I'm not going to go out of my way to do it that's for sure which is why I'm only looking for mint take off iX parts (which are next to impossible to find not to mention you can't bench test a VC coupling on the bench that I know of).
You can bench test a VC, but you need a lathe and a torque wrench to do it.
I forget how you do it, but its listed on e30tech in the iX section.

Securities litigation filings in U.S. courts dropped 20 percent in 2012, a new study showslargely because of a decline in the number of suits filed against Chinese companies.
A January report [PDF] from the Stanford Law School Securities Class Action Clearinghouse and Cornerstone Research finds that only 10 securities suits were filed last year against Chinese companies that listed in the United States via so-called reverse mergers. Many results of such dealsin which a Chinese company acquires and merges itself into an already listed U.S. companyhave been plagued by accusations of fraudulent disclosures, triggering a wave of securities litigation beginning in 2010. Some 31 suits were filed in 2011, the peak of the trend.
Despite fewer cases being filed, plenty of litigation remains in the pipeline. "New filings have been lower in 2012," says Jerome Fortinsky, a New Yorkbased litigation partner at Shearman & Sterling, which is representing Chinese reverse-merger defendants like China MediaExpress, China Electric Motor Inc., and ZST Digital Networks in ongoing securities litigation. "But for lawyers, activity levels are still very high because the litigation process takes about two to three years."
Defense lawyers say that for most of their Chinese reverse-merger clients, the securities cases are their first time dealing with American-style litigation. Many of these cases are filed to take advantage of Chinese companies that dont know how to respond to litigation, especially in the U.S., says Samuel Williamson, a Shanghai-based partner at Kirkland & Ellis, which represented Bain Capital in settling shareholder cases brought against China Fire & Security Group Inc., a Beijing-based industrial fire safety product manufacturer that underwent a reverse merger in 2006 and that Bain acquired in 2011.
But plaintiffs attorney Lawrence Rosen, who has filed more than 30 securities suits against U.S.listed Chinese companies over the past few years, says those defendants are hardly victims. In his view, the main issue is widespread self-dealing by Chinese executives, not mere ignorance about the U.S. legal system. In China, CEOs can own the companys customers, suppliers, and even the factory that sells it services, says Rosen.
His Rosen Law Firm is currently preparing a class action against Focus Media Holdings Ltd., a Shanghai-based advertising company that has already been the target of several other lawsuits. (Focus Media has denied allegations that its accounting practices were improper.) Rosen has also filed similar suits against Perfect World Co. Ltd., a Beijing-based online gaming company; China Gerui Advanced Materials Group Ltd., a Henan-based steelmaker; and AutoChina International Ltd., a Hebei automobile investments holdings firm, whose motion to dismiss the suit was dismissed last month by the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. (Perfect World has said that it complied with all applicable U.S. securities regulations and stock exchange rules.)
Some defense lawyers say that the size of recent settlements has also been dropping, especially when compared to typical securities class settlements in the United States. Sean Prosser, a San Diegobased partner at Morrison & Foerster, says there were three China-related securities litigation settlements in 2012 for $600,000, $2 million, and $3 million. That compares to an average settlement for U.S. federal securities class actions of $31 million in 2011, according to a study by NERA Economic Consulting. And that was down from $42 million in 2009. For the first half of 2012, the average settlement was $71 million.
Mimi Yang, a Shanghai-based litigation counsel at Ropes & Gray, attributes the smaller settlements to the difficulty of litigating against Chinese companies. She calls it the "China discount," explaining, It is very hard to enforce a U.S. judgment on China soil."
Shearmans Fortinsky agrees. "Chinese defendants who do not have assets in the U.S. are in a position where they can think about simply not engaging in the litigations," he says. "If they only have interests in China, or have no interest in expanding in the U.S., they can simply choose not to engage in litigation."
But Rosen counters that smaller settlement amounts are to be expected, since most U.S.listed Chinese companies have smaller market capitalizations.

Questioning the Creation-Evolution Debate
[This is reposted as part of our Best-Of Revelife Week. It was originally posted on March 3, 2011.]
"For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power." 1 Corinthians 1:17 (English Standard Version)
Seeing as the whole creation/evolution debate has calmed down from when it exploded a week ago, I thought I would throw out some of my thoughts on the whole issue. Not to stir the pot hopefully, because I sit on the fence, and truly, I have no clue anymore. Once upon a time I used to be the poster child for Creationism, and for a period of time I did used to understand evolution, reading all the magazines and articles, I knew a lot about the whole thing.
I don't know what happened next, maybe a few too many debates on evolution and creationism, I became somewhat ambivalent about the whole issue. When 90% of a debate is spent on this issue of how the world became how it is, instead of whether Jesus Christ was who he said he was, and the historicity of the resurrection, the whole experience loses its shine. The truth is, I also find a lot of obstacles for believing whether God created the earth in 7 days or 7 billion years.
What I can agree on is whether we take the creation account as literal or as figurative, the essential idea is that God is the beginning and source of human life, and he is sovereign over all creation. Whether God uses evolution or things were created already specifically, the person of Jesus Christ is what I care about most above all.
That being said, when push comes to shove, I find Creationism is the belief I would defend. Recently, through the whole drama, I found a lot of times I would feel inclined to write something defending the creationists as opposed to the evolutionists. As for convincing me, I find a lot of evolutionists seem very anti-theistic and come off sounding like they like bashing Christians more than the science they uphold. Here are some questions I have nevertheless, which stop me from embracing either field, I do realise there are a few more position than these:
What way would you reconcile the New Testament, especially in Romans 5 where Paul compares the death through Adam's sin, and the life that comes through Christ. If Adam is a metaphorical figure here, how is Jesus not a metaphorical figure? Paul treats the person Adam as a literal figure, and how then does that affect our interpretation of Genesis 1?
Death is essential part of evolution of species, but depicted as a negative experience in the Bible. How do you reconcile death, which is essential to evolution, occurring before the Fall when Man had not died a spiritual death yet from consuming the fruit of the Tree?
How do you deal with the interaction of human wisdom and godly wisdom? That is to say that there is a line between what "science" (speech marks intended) tells us, and what God has already said. As much as Christianity can be man-motivated, I think that some scientists can be similarly atheistic-motivated.
At what point does the narrative in Genesis become not literal? Some place it at Abraham, but others just after the creation account. The notion that the line is ambiguous in Scripture, does this suggest we are reading into the account something that isn't there?
How does the death of animals correlate with the Fall of Man? How is it a domino effect that since man fell, that animals suddenly became dying as well?
I've been reading the bible in 1 year, and alot of the feel seems crazy similar to how the Ancient Greeks would have written their myths of how the world came about. In comparison to other creation accounts in other religions, it is strikingly similar. How do you explain the almost mythical poetry writing style of Genesis chapter 1 to (let's say) 11?
How does a global flood account for the sifting of animals into a chronological order in rock strata? I'm speaking in a general sense, geologists have been able to gain a whole insight into millions of years through rock strata which show general evolution. How does that work with the flood if all creatures were on the earth at the same time?
A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. Play nice and you might get your hot cup of cocoa. (skit i am referring to which is ironically not very Christian)

Huff Receives Suspended Sentence, 24 Months Probation
Councilman Todd Huff's defense attorney had been seeking probation before judgement.
Councilman Todd Huff was sentenced Tuesday to one year in jail suspended and 24 months supervised probation after pleading guilty two weeks ago to one count of drunken driving. Baltimore County Circuit Court Judge Timothy Martin said Huff's probation will be supervised by the Drunk Driving Monitoring program. Huff will also have to remain alcohol free for the term of his probation and submit to random urine tests. An alcohol restriction was also placed on his license for the next 24 months. Additionally, the sentence carries 12 points on his drivers license and could lead to revocation following an expected administrative appeal by Huff. Huff, a first-term Republican from Timonium, pleaded guilty on April 18 to one count of driving under …

Mike Walsten has covered major business trends in agriculture for more than 35 years.
Mike Walsten
The value of an average acre of Iowa farmland is projected to rise 13.6% in 2013, according to a survey of land professionals attending the 86th annual Soil Management and Land Valuation Conference at Iowa State University Wednesday. Survey respondents said they expect the value of an acre of Iowa farmland will reach $9,425 an acre by November 1, 2013. That compares to an average of $8,296 an acre reported by the 2012 Iowa Land Value Survey conducted by Dr. Mike Duffy, Iowa State University economics professor and extension farm management economist who conducts both the annual survey and the annual conference.
The university has conducted the attendee survey in conjunction with the conference since 1964. The survey's track record has proven reasonably accurate with the May survey undershooting the November 1 figure in years of strong gains and overstating the November 1 figure in years of weakness. Last year, the conference survey projected an increase in Iowa land values by November 1 of nearly 22%. Conference attendees projected a November 1 average value of $8,164 an acre. The actual November 1 figure, as noted above, was $8,296 an acre -- a 24% annual increase.
Conference attendees also honored Dr. Duffy for his leadership of the annual conference as he will retire January 1, 2014.
If interested in seeing a copy of LandOwner, just drop me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 800-772-0023.
The value of "good" Central Corn Belt farmland rose 4% on a quarterly basis during the first quarter of 2013, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. While a gain, the pace of the increase is down from the 7% rise posted during the fourth quarter of 2012. On an annual basis, farmland rose 15% for the year ending Mar. 31, nearly matching the 16% annual increase reported for the year ending Dec. 31. The bank notes the strong annual increases noted in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and Michigan "masked the weaker results of some areas, such as Wisconsin." The Chicago Federal Reserve Bank serves the northern two-thirds of both Illinois and Indiana, all of Iowa, the Lower Peninsula of Michigan and southeastern Wisconsin.
Michigan led the charge higher with a 24% annual increase and a 12% gain versus the fourth quarter of 2012. Iowa marks a 20% annual gain and a 3% quarterly rise. Illinois lists a 19% annual increase and a 5% rise on a quarterly basis. Indiana reports a 15% annual increase and a 4% quarterly rise. Wisconsin, however, reports a 3% annual decrease and a "no change" for the quarterly comparison.
Looking ahead, 19% of survey expect farmland values will trend higher in the second quarter of 2013 while 4% expect them to decrease. The vast majority anticipate farmland values will remain stable.
The bank survey also found cash rental rates rose 11% from 2012, a smaller annual increase than reported the previous two years. On a state-by-state basis, Illinois is up 9%; Indiana, 11%; Iowa, 13%; Michigan, 2%; and Wisconsin, 12%. The bank says district cash rental rates rose almost 10% on an inflation-adjusted basis, the fourth-largest increase in rates in the history of the survey.
Farmland values slipped 2.3% and ranchland fell 5.1% across the Mid-South, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. The survey of 55 district ag bankers also found a decline in cash rents with average cash rent for quality farmland down 8.6% and ranchland/pastureland down 4.5%. Despite the slippage in values, the survey "on net, finds bankers expect land values and cash rents to continue rising. However, it appears that bankers' expectations for future land value increases have moderated somewhat as fewer responses indicate that agricultural land values will continue to climb over the next quarter," the bank states.
It should be noted the St. Louis Fed's ag banker survey is a new survey. It's first survey was conducted in the second quarter of 2012, so it does not yet have a full year's worth of data for comparison. The bank serves bankers in the southern third of Illinois, southern third of Indiana, western half of Kentucky, the eastern two-thirds of Missouri, the western third of Tennessee, northern half of Mississippi, and all of Arkansas.
The bank pegs the average value of an acre of quality district farmland at $5,111 and an acre of ranchland/pastureland at $2,274.
The value of farm and ranchland across the Great Plains rose by double-digits on an annual basis through the first quarter of 2013, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. The bank says the value of dryland cropland rose 19.3%, led by a 28.1% increase in northwest Missouri. The value of irrigated cropland gained 21.5%, paced by a 24% rise in the Mountain States of Colorado, Wyoming and northern New Mexico. The Fed bank notes the pace of the increase in farmland values declined during the first quarter of 2013. After rising 7.7% and 9% in the first quarter of 2012, the value of non-irrigated and irrigated cropland rose 3.4% and 2.9%, respectively, during the first quarter of 2013. "Cropland value gains slowed compared with last year due to falling crop prices and rising input costs," the bank says. Ranchland values strengthened the most in the bank district, rising 4% versus the fourth quarter of 2012. "Ranchland value gains were driven by a lack of adequate pastures and the prospects of improving profits in the livestock sector," the bank notes.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City serves Kansas, northwestern Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma and the Mountain States of Colorado, Wyoming and northern New Mexico.
The value of good southeastern farmland rose 6.2% for calendar year 2012, according to the quarterly survey of agricultural bankers served by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. The bank says the market value of good farmland averaged $3,421 an acre by the end of the fourth quarter of 2012 -- 1.5% higher than than third quarter of 2012. The Fed bank says bankers responding to the survey anticipate the growth of farmland prices will change little in early 2013. Farmland values in that region have remained relatively flat since the all-time that was posted in the third quarter of 2006.

GDP at purchaser's prices is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in current U.S. dollars. Dollar figures for GDP are converted from domestic currencies using single year official exchange rates. For a few countries where the official exchange rate does not reflect the rate effectively applied to actual foreign exchange transactions, an alternative conversion factor is used.

Outgoing Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Sunday that it would a "shameful, irresponsible" act for Congress to allow the automated budget cuts known as "sequestration" to take effect.
During an appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press," Panetta pressed lawmakers to find a way to avoid the cuts, slated to take effect on March 1, warning that it would impact the military's preparedness.
Congress set up the package of sweeping across-the-board budget cuts totaling $1.2 billion that would take effect if they could not reach a deficit-reduction agreement in the Budget Control Act of 2011.
More than $500 billion of the proposed cuts, which have been pushed back from its original December implementation date to this spring as part of the "fiscal cliff" deal, would fall on the Defense department.
But he added "if sequester happens, it is going to badly damage the readiness of the United States of America."
"If sequester goes into effect, and we have to do the kind of cuts that go right at readiness, right at maintenance, right at training, we are going to weaken the United States and make it more difficult to respond to crises," Panetta warned.

Loved by the people for their extreme utility, abhorred by the state as a symbol of backwardness, cycle rickshaws – or pedicabs – are not a new phenomenon in India. Originally from Japan, the hand-drawn rickshaw was introduced in Simla in India around 1880. It was, then, a vehicle to carry the social elite. By 1950, cycle rickshaws evolved into a popular mode of urban transport. Today, cycle rickshaws provide door-to-door transport at an affordable price to people in urban areas across India. Cycle rickshaws also provide easy employment to those wanting employment. At a time when economic opportunity in the hinterland is dwindling, many village folk come to the city and earn a living by pulling cycle rickshaws. Continue reading

ELIZABETHTOWN — A Bladenboro man has been returned to Bladen County from Virginia and slapped with 92 charges against him.
According to Capt. Rodney Hester with the Bladen County Sheriff's Office, 48-year-old Darryl Dewitt McMaster arrived Saturday and will face 46 counts of identity theft and 46 counts of obtaining property by false pretenses.
"McMaster would find individuals who wanted to purchase cable and would use names that he fraudulently obtained to have the service turned on," Hester said. "When the listed individuals received the monthly bills, they would throw it away. It reportedly took Time Warner Cable about three months to figure out that a crime had occurred."
Hester said the names being used by McMaster were those of military officials or former military personnel. That caused the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the Office of the Inspector General's Criminal Division to assist in the case.
"It remains unclear how McMaster obtained the names," Hester said. He added that McMaster is wanted in Virginia for similar crimes.
McMaster is currently being held in the Bladen County Jail under a $92,000 secured bond.

Man Can Fly: Video
Breathtaking images of guys cliff jumping in WindSuits, flying so close they can scrape the rocks.
If your week was a little dull, a bit routine, take a look at how these guys fill their time - jumping off cliffs and soaring through the air at over 100 miles per hour in this week's YouTube video.
The clip is from Seven Sunny Days, produced by Matchstick Productions at www.MSPFilms.com. It must be seen to be believed.
Be inspired and hold on tight!

5. | wolf bagging | ||
the act of having sex with a wolf in a large bag! i bet colin is a fucking wolf bagger the sic fuck!
1. | wolf bagging | ||
Whilst having sex with a woman (doggystyle), a small peice of bacon is tied to a string and swallowed by the girl, then just as the man ejaculates he pulls the string and the bacon comes out of the womans mouth makin her gag and tense up increasing pleasure for the man. man: oh yeah! oh (pulls string)
Woman: choke, gag! tense man: wow! |
2. | wolf bagging | ||
When engagein in anal sex, the man waits until hes just seconds away from jizzing before ramming his fingers down his girl/boyfriends throat.This causes his victim to retch,and consequently tightens up the splinchter.This effect whilst cuming would feel quite good,I predict. Oh Brian,lets get busy now the kids are having lunch,nnnyyeeeeaaasss!!
OK but no wolf bagging this time Roy |
3. | wolf bagging | ||
To have anal sex with a person who, prior to the deed, has swallowed a piece of raw bacon with a length of string attatched to it. One end of the string hangs out of the mouth of the anal recipient and as "the moment" approaches for the anal giver, he yanks the piece of string, causing the other person to vomit up the piece of bacon. During vomiting, the muscles in the anus become tightly clenched, causing an amazing sensation for the anal giver. We indulged in a spot of wolf bagging, and had a nice bacon sandwich afterwards.

Putting a Wolf in a bag I'm going wolf bagging tonight
6. | wolf bagging | ||
When engaging in anal in the doogy position the man, on the point of ejaculation, batters the woman in the kidneys as hard as possible. This results in spontaneous vomiting by the man/woman taking said beating. This results in a far tighter orgasm. Apparently (batter)

By Andrew Brandt
A new Trojan quietly circulating in the wild uses components from a commercial optical character recognition (OCR) application to decode captchas, those jumbled-text images meant to help a website discern human activity from automated bots.
The OCR-using captcha breaking tool is just one component of the Trojan. Its main purpose appears to be to fill out contest entries, online polls, and other forms relating to marketing campaigns originating in the US, and it uses the OCR-cracking software in order to read the captchas and submit the form entries, on pages where the website presents a captcha to the user.
And this is not just any captcha-cracka, but a Swiss Army Knife of sorts. The maker of the "Advanced Captcha Recognition Engine" tool, based in China, claims that the tool is capable of bypassing more than 30 different captcha systems, including those used by Yahoo, MSN, and some of the largest portal sites and banks in China.
The captcha decoding tool itself is a kludge, marrying some bespoke files and components expropriated from an older version of a commercial optical character recognition (OCR) suite called TOCR. The UK-based company that makes the TOCR software, Transym Computer Services, also licenses its components to third parties, though it's not clear they knowingly have a relationship with the Chinese captcha cracker maker, nor were they aware that parts of their engine was repurposed for sale to Chinese malfeasants. The files appear to have been stolen or pirated, and used without Transym's knowledge.

LaGrange Academy's boys' and girls' teams made themselves right at home, with both coming away with convincing victories.
The Lady Warriors defeated the Lady Cougars 45-35 and moved to 3-0 on the season, while the Warriors won 68-29 to make them 3-0 as well.
LaGrange Academy's girls jumped out to a 15-1 lead in the first quarter and never trailed.
Lafayette Christian made it interesting, matching LaGrange's eight points in the second quarter before dominating the first four minutes of the third quarters to creep within three at 28-25.
But the Lady Warriors' quickness and ball-handling helped them extend the before finally winning the game by 10 points.
"We couldn't get our offense going," Lafayette Christian coach Paula Johnson said afterward. "Once we got our offense going, then it was okay, but we had to stop them on defense and I had to change our defense. Once we got into a 1-2-2 (zone), it kind of slowed them down and put us back in the game. They're offense killed us. They've got a lot of great speed and a lot of great shooters."
Johnson gave kudos to LaGrange Academy's Tazsa Garrett-Johnson saying, "she was pretty tough and a great ball handler."
LaGrange Academy coach Britt Gaylor said his girls were able to play their kind of game from the outset, but admitted the team misses Fannasy Garrett-Hammett, who suffered a sprained knee two weeks ago against Calvary Christian.
She watched the game from the stands wearing a knee brace. She is expected to return to action sometime after Christmas.
"We're missing one of our main ball handlers in Fannasy," Gaylor said. "I think our girls had to adjust to playing with a little bit of pressure. We handled it and settled everything down and took the lead back to double digits and we were fine. Our girls came together and did a good job of adjusting."
LaGrange's Brittany Smalls led all scorers with 14 points followed by Garrett-Hammett with 12.
Courtney Lowery led the Cougars with 11 points.
With the loss, the Lady Cougars' record is now 2-3.
In the boys' game, LaGrange Academy took no prisoners, leading in the second half by as many as 41 points.
In the opening quarter, the Warriors committed nine personal fouls and Lafayette Christian moved into the double-bonus early in the second quarter.
That fortunate turn of events didn't help the Cougars' cause as LaGrange led at the intermission 46-21.
In the third quarter, Lafayette could only muster five points while the Warriors reeled off 18, leading 64-26 after three quarters when both coaches decided to let the clock run without interruption in the fourth quarter, thus ending the game early.
The Cougars fell to 0-4.
"We're just dealing with youth, inexperience and we're just having to learn as we go," Lafayette Christian head coach Rene Gomez said. "So all I can ask our guys to do is put 110 percent out on the court and then just start to understand, start to be able to make plays, we missed a lot of easy shots. We were just stagnant in the third quarter. I think sometimes we overpass it and we're not making the right reads. We're just going to have to learn as we go, continue to work hard and all I ask our guys is don't quit, keep working and good things will come."
Gaylor said he felt the difference in the game was being "well-prepared."
"I've got to say it was a collective team effort," Gaylor said. "We had two freshmen who played big minutes for us tonight, Zach Callaghan and Will Trotter and they played great and it was just a collective team effort."
For LaGrange Academy, Mayokun Oshinowo led all scorers with 18 points. Callaghan had 13, and Zach Alsop and Logan Moody each scored 10.
Lafayette's Aaron Dixon and Caleb Corbin each had five points.
LaGrange Academy's teams host Oak Mountain on Saturday, with the girls' game starting at 4 p.m. and the boys' game to follow.
Lafayette Christian's teams will be at home today for a doubleheader against Dawson Street Christian.
The girls' game begins at 6 p.m., followed by the boys' game.
It will be the season opener for the Wildcats, who won a state championship last season.
"They'll be very tough," Gomez. "They do a great job of pressuring full-court. We're going to have to be able to handle that and be smart. It will be a tall order, but we're up to the challenge and we'll see what happens."

Adventist Origins of Young Earth Creationism
Many evangelicals believe that Young Earth Creationism is the only authentic, biblical way for Christians to understand origins, and that until the advent of Darwin's theory of evolution, it was the only view held by Christians. However, in this excerpt from Saving Darwin, Karl Giberson explains that Young Earth Creationism's origins are surprisingly recent.
"Come and See": A Christological Invitation for Science
This chapter from Mark Noll's book Jesus Christ and the Life of the Mind seeks to understand science through a Christ-centered lens. Overall, if one accepts that nature is created and sustained by Jesus Christ, the author explains, then one must conclude that looking at nature is, in fact, the best way to learn about nature.
Science as an Instrument of Worship
NASA astronomer Jennifer Wiseman asserts that studying creation can show us the nature of God; science can inform us of what we need to do as stewards of God's creation; understanding the natural world gives us a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ; and science can give us a better understanding of ourselves. This essay was presented at the November 2009 Theology of Celebration Workshop.
Science, Religion, and A. D. White: Seeking Peace in the 'Warfare Between Science and Theology'
Mark Noll, historian and author of The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind, describes how Andrew Dickson White relentlessly advocated a view of history in which Science and Dogmatic Theology have always been at war with one another. Noll identifies 16 reasons why White's notion of warfare is mistaken.
Creation, Evolution, and Christian Laypeople
In this paper, Keller considers three main clusters of questions lay people raise when they learn of anyone teaching that biological evolution and biblical orthodoxy can be compatible. Keller offers some ideas on how to provide responses that take these concerns seriously.

A Boswell woman was injured Wednesday after falling asleep while driving on Highway 70 1.1 miles east of Boswell in Choctaw County, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol said.
Sierra D. Ainsworth, 21, was flown by EagleMed helicopter to the Medical Center of Plano where she is being treated for internal trunk injuries, according to the patrol. She is listed in stable condition.
Ainsworth was driving westbound at 2:50 p.m., according to patrol, when she fell asleep and drove off the right side of the road. Her vehicle then traveled back onto the roadway, when she lost control again and traveled off the right side of the road and struck a culvert. The vehicle rolled two-and-a-half times before coming to rest on the driver's side.
Ainsworth, who was not wearing a seat belt, was ejected approximately 20 feet, the patrol said.
Trooper Tommy Richardson, assisted by Trooper Joe Jefferson, investigated the crash.

Hi Andrea!
All i can say is that KRPano (for which PanoTourPro is the GUI) only in the latest update supports Androids.
So i suggest to read on the KRPano site/forum about what it´s like.
best and good luck, Klaus

Guess that´s because KRPano is the actual version and PTP not! I guess it still uses the previous version of KRPano.
best, Klaus
Ok, ty Klaus
I solved it! It wasn't the PTP, was Chrome in Android 4.0.3 -.- when I check at another phone, works fine
