One of the PC indie scene's greatest games will be heading for the 3DS, according to Eurogamer. Retro platformer Cave Story will be getting a packaged release on Nintendo's new handheld!
And it's hardly a basic porting of the 8-Bit classic. Instead, you can expect new character designs and art layouts, better lighting, and - of course - 3D visuals.
Cave Story is a charming game of exploration and combat with a strong narrative and a host of cute characters. It's an experience you shouldn't miss out on, and an updating for Nintendo's new hardware makes us very excited indeed.
We're not the only ones, with the game's creator Daisuke Amaya admitting that he wasn't expecting his game would ever make such an impact with Western audiences. He's also hinting that a sequel might finally be on the cards.It's now been 10 years since the original Cave Story came out, so I'm now thinking that maybe it's time to start thinking about a sequel for Cave Story. There's a very, very good chance we'll see a sequel," he said.
There's no word yet on when Cave Story 3DS will be hitting shops around the UK, but we'll keep you posted. -
The glasses-free 3D visuals of Nintendo forthcoming 3DS have been wowing critics and gamers alike ahead of the console March release, but an interview with Nintendo Hideki Konno a key figure in the development of the handheld reveals that it didn originally have that feature.
"In 2008 [it] didn't have 3D visuals," Konno told Famitsu magazine. "They [Nintendo] have had a history of experimenting with 3D visuals. With this system, you could say the timing was just right for us. It was the right time to start thinking about using the latest in high-tech and try out glasses-free 3D."
Konno also revealed that the console motion sensor was another late addition to the feature set, with Shigeru Miyamoto ultimately responsible for its inclusion. "We officially went with them just before E3 last year," he explained. "The boat had really left the port by that point the hardware team had the final specs and just had to work it all out. Then, in the midst of that, Miyamoto said his isn enough; we can really change things if there a gyro sensor in there.We had a prototype for the sensor already, so we got everyone together to try it out."
A wise decision, we think; Nintendo 2DS doesn't quite have the same ring to it. The 3D- and gyro-enabled portable hits Japan this weekend and will be available across Europe on 25th March.
No surprise here: Nintendo has a huge hit on its hands. The legendary company's new 3DS handheld console went on sale in Japan over the weekend and promptly sold by the bucketload.
How big is a bucketload? In this case, it's 400,000 - count 'em - consoles, as Japanese gamers rushed to pick up the spangly new device, that sees Nintendo embracing the third dimension with an amazing 3D top screen to complement the good old touch screen below.
With reports that queues stretched to over 750 people - thanks, Eurogamer - the initial shipment sold out almost immediately, with Nintendo seeming likely to shift 1.5 million units in Japan alone by the end of March.
Figures are all right, of course, but what about us? Well, we'll be getting our hands on the 3DS on 25th March, which means the wait is almost over. Better yet, we'll be able to grab games like PilotWings Resort and Super Street Fighter IV on the same day, with Mario Kart and Zelda instalments hopefully arriving before the year is out.
If Japan's proved one thing, though, it's that you should probably pre-order to avoid disappointment. This one's selling out on day one, we reckon.
Nintendo has expressed hope that sales of its 3DS console are back on track after reaching 6.68 million units at the end of September.
Although the figure is below the company's expectations, it is ahead of the data for the device's predecessor the DS during the same period, reports MCV.
Sales of the 3DS, which allows users to experience an innovative way of playing new and exciting games, increased during August as a result of a substantial price cut.
Nintendo has also forecast strong sales during the festive period, with the reduced cost and an improved software line-up expected to attract customers.
This comes after the Japanese technology firm announced the launch of a new coral pink 3DS console, created to mark the upcoming release of Nintendogs + Cats.
Set to hit stores on November 18th, the new title will see the portable pooch accompanied by an adorable female friend to play with.

GAME : 3DS update Round-up
If there's one thing the latest generation of consoles has taught us, it's that newly purchased gaming systems aren't the finished article when you first take them out of their shiny wrapping. Not to say they 're lacking anything fundamental, far from it in fact, but system updates now mean it's possible for platform holders like Nintendo to dramatically improve a console's functionality and boost the user experience post-launch.
December's free 3DS system update is a prime example, introducing fresh game content, social features and hardware functionality to the console. Here, GAME runs you through all the major new additions.
3D Filming!
One of our favourite new features is the ability to make ten minute long 3D videos with just a few simple button presses. Icons on the 3DS touch screen allow you to select or fine-tune different recording features such as the 3D effect, altering the sharpness and brightness of your video, and choosing whether to film in regular colour, black and white or sepia. The quality of the recordings we've made so far is surprisingly good, although you obviously have to see them in person to get the full 3D effect.
While the basic ability to record in 3D is a cool feature in itself, special praise is reserved for the three Trick Shot modes. Interval Shot takes still snaps at your choice of intervals, between every half a second and 60 seconds, before playing them in a rapid slideshow.
Frame Pick, which essentially enables you to create stop-motion animations, is similar to Interval Shot except it lets you capture images of a physically manipulated object whenever you choose, creating the illusion of movement when the series of pictures is played as a continuous sequence.
Meanwhile, Clip Link enables you to record various video segments which are then mashed together in the same video file. There's no doubt that budding animators and movie makers will spend a lot of time playing around with these simple to use but rewarding new video recording features.
New Plaza updates
The system update also introduces a range of new features for Mii Plaza, the place where 3DS owners can view the Mii characters they've met via StreetPass (which automatically swaps the Miis and gameplay profiles of players who pass each other on their travels). These include a follow-up to the free, in-built 3DS RPG-style game StreetPass Quest, and new 3D puzzles of famous Nintendo characters to complete by collecting pieces from other players.
You now receive congratulatory messages in the Mii Plaza for achieving goals such as meeting a certain numbers of Miis or ones from different countries (which are displayed on a new StreetPass Map showing the locations of all the Miis you've encountered), or by working your way through StreetPass Quest 2. There are 78 accomplishments to get in total and a congratulatory message for each. They also unlock up to 35 different tunes to listen to in a new Mii Plaza Music Player.
The new Puzzle Panel pieces we've collected so far are for Donkey Kong Country Returns and Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time 3D. The puzzles themselves are larger than the originals, with 24 pieces to collect instead of 15, including four pink pieces which can only be collected via StreetPass (others can be purchased with Play Coins, a virtual currency accumulated by carrying your 3DS around with you like a pedometer).
New Street Pass Quest
StreetPass Quest 2, in which you control a team of fighters made up of your friends' Miis, challenges players to save three fictional family members kidnapped by slimy monsters and placed in separate cages. It contains branching paths as well as brand new enemies, and even lets players make parties of Miis to carry out team attacks using weapons or magic. The game also offers players the chance to collect a total of 57 hats for their Miis, compared to the original game's 16, but the title's only accessible if you've completed the first one twice.
Download Demos
Additionally, the 3DS system update paves the way for players to download demos of 3DS games, although none have been made available yet, as well as making it easier to browse and pay for games and content in the Nintendo eShop. Players can now transfer games purchased from the eShop, as well as account funds and save data including photographs and audio files, from one 3DS system to another too.
All in all, the 3DS system update is an impressive release, adding great new hardware functionality, amusing new game content and cool new social features. It has been almost nine months since release and our 3DS feels like a fresher piece of kit than ever before, all of which leaves us eagerly awaiting the next major system update.

New details emerge in the incident that left one Tompkins County man dead and another in jail. Tamara Lindstrom tells us what investigators are saying about the Sunday night stabbing.
TOMPKINS COUNTY, N.Y. -- The weekend came to a violent end on this quiet street in the Town of Lansing.
"The defendant got in his truck and engaged in an altercation with Mr. West that led to Mr. West sustaining multiple stab wounds," said Tompkins County District Attorney Gwen Wilkinson.
Dana Houghtling, 40, has been charged with assault after deputies say he stabbed Jeff West, 31, repeatedly with knives. Both men are from Groton. Investigators say this wasn't the first time Houghtling and the victim had met and that the deadly altercation stemmed from a domestic violence incident last month.
"On March 25th, Dana Houghtling, the defendant in this matter, was charged in connection with a domestic violence incident," Wilkinson said. "A stay away order of protection was issued on behalf of a woman, alleged victim."
Wilkinson said West and the woman went to Houghtling's house before the stabbing.
"The defendant text messaged this woman and asked her or sent her a message that caused her to take a friend and go to the defendant's home. When they arrived at the home, there was an altercation between the defendant and her friend."
West and the woman left, but the argument wasn't over.
"The defendant, Mr. Houghtling, drove his truck to a house on Van Ostrand Road and crashed his truck into a car that was parked in a driveway there," Wilkinson said. "At that time, the woman and Mr. West were outside."
After he assaulted West, investigators say Houghtling fled. He later turned himself in to the sheriff's office. West was rushed to Upstate University hospital, but died of his injuries Monday, leaving authorities to seek further charges for what is now a homicide.
The Tompkins County Sheriff's Office is investigating the homicide, along with State Police. The case is expected to go before a grand jury on Thursday.
An attorney for Houghtling could not be reached for comment.

If anything had to get released I think it would be there pokemon-
Ash: Leavanny
Cilan: Stunfisk(only a few appearances so far)
Iris: Maybe Emolga unless she lets a pokemon stay at the gym for Drayden to raise for her
Pokemon Black 2 Team:
White 2:
Ash isn't going to release anything. He just leaves behind Pokemon at the labs now.
Ash technically hasn't released anything since Lapras all the way back in Orange Islands.
Considering they're using rotation now there's no need for a release at all :P
And also, the point of a lot of releases is to free a slot on a member's team..... :S
Like battles? Bored? PM/VM me and we can set it up
Pkmn White 1463 5805 7772
Pkmn White 2 0906 0885 3154
*Spaced to be filled*
White 2: Champion
Legends: Almost all of them :P
Badges: 8
That's why I said a lot and not all
Butterfree was a special case, as it was reflecting on kids raising caterpillars into butterflies and letting them free.
Dustox was kinda in the same boat.
Releases like Ambipom was so Dawn could free up a slot.
Same goes for Gliscor being put into training.
Primeape... this thing was more useless than Palpitoad..
But at least it got an episode dedicated to itself......
We still don't know position of gliscor..
may be gliscor is with Prof.oak at pallet town
RANK UP: I'm Brycen. Imma be, Imma be, Imma Imma Imma be going Cung Le!
Answer to all the bad things in the world: Give up on trying to make everything better. Hence, accepting it for what it is.YOLO!
Spoiler:- League battle that I wanted:
Oh well, at least five of those appeared in the league.. -.-
Gliscor was said to have finished his training with the Air Battle Master upon his return, IIRC..
So he's likely to be at the lab now..
Kingler, my friend. No matter what, you will always remain my favourite Water type. You shouldn't have missed out on the Sinnoh League and I look forward to seeing you again, hopefully in the near future.
There you are, I see you in the back there!
If that confirms Gliscor being at the lab, let the poor man rest in peace, his Gliscor can come to the lab and be caugth by Satoshi.
There have been a lot of dragon related merchandise but Charizard appears in Dragon and non-dragon related stuff with BW logo, doesn't mean he will appear he appears in the opening already but we don't know, rigth now with them being in Isshu in the next arc I'm starting to doubt we will see any reserver, which pisses me off actually.
Of course it can... And somebody up here made a fair point:
- Liza visited Blackthorn City on a whim, because Clair lives there and it is associated with Dragon-types in general.. She can do the same for Opelucid City..
Charizard vs. Reshiram? I can definitely see it happening...
RANK UP: I'm Brycen. Imma be, Imma be, Imma Imma Imma be going Cung Le!
Answer to all the bad things in the world: Give up on trying to make everything better. Hence, accepting it for what it is.YOLO!

Here's how RW members rated this race (157 votes).
In short: A good race with good PB potential, although I didn't manage a PB this year!In full: Don't really see the point of running a Hampshire Championship 5 mile race alongside a 10k fun run with both races starting at the same time in the same place on 4 lanes of a track! Other than that I enjoyed this race and will do it again.Date of review: September 26, 2012
In short: Fast course, always a strong field.In full: A fast course with a good quality field, definitely PB potential if the wind along the shore isn't too strong. Improvements to this race for next year would be to sort out the mile markers (1 and 4 were inaccurate by about 300 metres), however the rest seemed about right. The start was also a little crowded with only 4 lanes of the track used.Date of review: September 19, 2012
In short: small things like the MILE MARKERS 1 and 4 so out by a full .2m - unacceptable for a race of this quality - tried reporting it to RD who siad well done on a sub 5mm and siad garmins are always out.... Im not capable of a sub 5mmIn full: Apert from this with the mile markers, this is an exceptional race with good PB potential, the memento was unique this year in a golden shoe, nice I like that.Not sure about the compact start this year, but the finish area much better and less congested than previous years. As usual the marshall were excellent.Date of review: September 16, 2012
In short: Well organised; good atmosphere; fats and flat, with good prospects for a PBIn full: Overall, well organised and well marshalled. Straightforward registration. Great course for a personal PB. Liked the golden shoe as a memento - certainly novel and made an interesting alternative to a medal! Thanks to everyone who made it happen.Date of review: September 16, 2012
In short: It's the little things that make all the differenceIn full: Yes, it's a fast flat course with PB potential (if the wind stays away), but some things about this race I just can't really forgive. The start, for instance, was a bit of a shambles - why start the race on a running track and then cram the start line into HALF its width? Ruined several people's PB ambitions right there. Then the positions of the mile markers was frankly laughable. I'll take my Garmin if there's a next time.I could make other criticisms regarding the "value" of the race and post-race memento relative to the entry fee, and the laborious registration procedure, but I'd like to keep it quite constructive. As it's a HRRL race, I'll probably end up doing it again, but I'd like a significantly improved experience next time.Date of review: September 16, 2012
In full: Good organisation, I like starting on the athletics track, will be the only time I ever get to run on one! Nice flat route, lots of off road running. I loved the shoe momento. I think there are a mixture of abilities so it caters for everyone one. I will be back next yearDate of review: September 16, 2012
In short: Another good event from Portsmouth A CIn full: Well organised,stadium start/finish,good facilities,well marshalled(Thank you marshals, couldn`t do these things without you) and plenty more good stuff.Date of review: September 20, 2011
In short: Enjoyable raceIn full: Mile marker seemed out for the 3rd mile, but a good race, nice pace and good terrain. Also recieved a lovely trophy on completing for the 65th anniversary of the race.Date of review: September 20, 2011
In short: An excellent race especially if you want a PBIn full: Again a well organisied event, but on the 65th anniversary It was always going to be. Shame people were still arriving at 10:50 and expecting that not to cause a problem, but the organisers were kind and delayed the start 15mins, which given it was a pleasant day did cause any great issue with those of us who arrive on time. Then excellent running throughout flat fast course with only a slight breeze this year resulting in the national standard for 5 miles for the first time. What a wonderful momento too.Date of review: September 19, 2011
In short: Fast course despite the windIn full: Well worth the 170mile round trip, coming away with a 49 sec pb.Unusual set up with a lap of a track to set you off, and then some pathy road fare for most of the race, until a 100metre on the track finish. Quality standard, 28.05 was only 31st position for me today..but what do you expect for a well known race in an area with quality runners.Date of review: September 18, 2011

Georgia Museum of Natural History The
The museum is located in the Natural History Building on the east campus of the University of Georgia. It is a young museum, recognized in 1978 by former university president Fred Davison. In 1999 the Georgia General Assembly designated it the Georgia Museum of Natural History. It is supported by a membership organization, the Friends of the Georgia Museum of Natural History. The museum is a consortium of fourteen affiliated collections: anthropology, arthropods (mites and insects), botany, economic geology, herpetology, ichthyology, invertebrates (primarily mollusks), mammalogy, mineralogy, mycology, ornithology, paleontology, palynology, and zooarchaeology. The museum's mission is to collect and preserve evidence of the cultural and natural heritage of Georgia and beyond, to encourage scholarship and service relating to the collections, to foster stewardship of the heritage of the people of Georgia, and to instruct people in their cultural and natural heritage. Some vital statistics about the collections are as follows. The oldest bird specimen from outside the United States is a white wagtail, collected in the Netherlands in 1870. A black-billed cuckoo is the oldest American bird, collected in Connecticut in 1878. The oldest bird from Georgia is a swamp sparrow collected in 1891. The largest specimen is a complete right-whale skeleton. Some of the smallest specimens are in the mycology collection. For example, Coccidiascus legeri is a single-celled, yeastlike parasite that inhabits the gut of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. The cells are fifteen to twenty microns long. It is known only from Georgia, though the original description was done in 1913 on materials in France. The largest collection is archaeology, with more than three million artifacts. The zoology and botany collections contain endangered or extinct plants and animals. The collections grow by more than 25,000 specimens each year. Providing technical service to state, federal, and private resource management agencies and firms is a major activity for most of the collections. The collections are also important research and teaching tools for faculty and students at the University of Georgia and elsewhere. The museum provides academic support to University of Georgia graduate and undergraduate students through the Joshua Laerm Academic Support Fund. The museum offers a number of public programs. These include special events, exploration kits, Web sites, traveling exhibits, tours, and other activities. The museum does not have an exhibition hall. Elizabeth J.

"Beautiful beach, good quality hotel."
The location of awesome! The beach is beautiful and not crowded. The only thing was there was a wedding party there the week we were and they hogged the seats by the pool bar and did not let anyone else have time by the bar. The food was very good off the menu, and we had all inclusive and could order all our meals off the menu. I did not get tired […] of the meals at all and we ate there every day for all 3 meals for 6 days. Would absolutely go there again!

"Great place for a base to explore."
We did not do all-inclusive as there are too many great restaurants in the area to try. Staff was incredible and very attentive. The concierge was patient, knowledgeable, and gave us great advice on a tour. Breakfast was a buffet of fresh fruit, scrambled eggs, potatoes (or rice & beans), bacon (or sausage)....in other words more than adequate and filling. […] There were daily activities and when we were there (Feb 2013) the pool was not crowded at all and very clean. Grounds were beautiful and well kept.

The Flamingo Beach Resort & Spa was a great place to stay at the end of our vacation.

We were greeted with special cocktails at the front desk and were able to check […] in a couple hours early. Our room was fantastic!

Wonderful resort with a wonderful staff. We couldn't have been happier. The breakfast buffet was always amazing. The setting was perfect. There were eateries nearby to stroll to and we always felt safe and well tended-to. The only warning we might include in this review is that this is a tropical location with high humidity so there are no carpets anywhere […] in the resort. The tile and marble floors get very slippery. Bring and wear sandles with a good tread on them. I slipped the first day and sported a nice shiner on my left eye for the duration of the trip.

I had a nice stay at the Flamingo Resort. At checkin they put me in a room with 2 double beds and not much of a view. After talking with the desk clerk that I had reserved a room with a king bed and a pool view. I was told that this is all they had that they were full and there is added charges for a view. I showed them my res from Expedia and they […] told me that they have a room for me. They moved me to the new room with a king bed and a great view of the pool. The rest of my stay was nice and relaxing. The food there was a little pricey but there are some nice resturants in the area. The pool is great with a swim up bar and a ledge that is just below the water for tanning and staying cool. I seen some wonderful sunsets from there and the beach is quit nice also. The staff were all nice and friendly that made for a pleasant stay. I loved the open lobby and corridories that let the breezes flow through the building. There are lots of interisting plants and iguanise and trees to see. When I go back to Costa Rica I will stay at the Flamingo Resort again and recommend the resort to friends.

"Flamingo Beach Resort, March 2012"
My friends and I really enjoyed our stay at Flamingo Beach. We had a few issues with charging food/drinks to our room initially, but once it was taken care of, there were no problems. We stayed in 2 seperate rooms, one of which didn't have a fridge - but this actually turned out to be ok because we didn't need it. The pool is beautiful and the swim […] up bar amazing. There is also immediate access to the beach from the pool. Some of the bartenders were absolutely incredible at making drinks and typically never skimped on the alcohol. All of the staff members were friendly, courteous, and spoke very good English. The breakfast buffet was also amazing. On a few occasions, ordering off the menu proved to have slow service, but we weren't too bothered by this. All in all, we had a wonderful time and would gladly stay here again.

Great location, great beach. Don't listen to the malcontents that complain about the hotel not really being on the beach. It is on the beach with a lightly traveled gravel road between the actual hotel property and the sandy beach. BIG deal. The beach vendors were friendly and courteous. The hotel pool is large and nice. I would not recommend the all […] inclusive option however. There are a number of very good, and i mean very good restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. Prices are 1/3 less than home. If you really need to get wasted everyday while on vacation then the all inclusive might be worth it.

althought we resreve 2 double beds, they had only king bed room. We stayed for 4 nights so they gave us a suit for 2 nightrs and made us change the room for the other 2 nights, which was uncomfertable! The suit wae nice but the regular room are very simple like 3 star hotel in the US! The hotel has a great game room with ping pong, pool and other games. At […] 8 oclock you already cannot find a chair at the pool...wake up at 7 if you would like one! The beach is graet and the sunset is awsom.

Beach has high surf and warnings for riptides make swimming risky. If you like quiet resort and beach, this is great.

"Great Quality!!!"
I just went with a friend for a short getaway and we could not have had a better time! We did not get the all-inclusive which would have been a waste for us as we do not frink that much. If you do, then get the all inclusive because drinks are about $9. There is a restaurant called Marie's right across the street from Flamingo hotel. I HIGHLY recommed […] it. Not expensive and GREAT food! Everyone at the hotel was EXTREMELY nice and helpful and went out of their way for you. I am considering going back! The best time to go we heard is the dry season which starts in December. We did not have a drop of rain. It was perfect weather the entire time! The other thing that is very helpful is transportation from to and from the airport. Use Ecotran! They only charge $20 per person where you will pay double that with anyone else. They have an office located right across the street from Flamingo Hotel. They are also the cheapest for the excusrions. Ďalšie informácieAutentické hodnotenie od zákazníka spoločnosti Expedia

[Solved] Margin Problems in IE 6/7
I am trying to position my navigation to butt up against the side of a div with the main content. I have to use negative margin to get it to display correctly, but in IE 6/7 it is much further to the left then it should be. What should I change to make it compatible with IE?
http://www.crosst.org/unashamedI'm not sure but your sidebar is a floated element...don't you have to set "overflow:hidden".
If so, you can re-jig all that margin fixes you seem to have going on.
Then again, I'm new at this stuff myself.I'm not quite sure if I'm right but I see that at the beginning of your stylesheet you have* html #main-nav { margin:50px 0px 0px 20px;}
then further down you have :#main-nav { margin:20px 0px 0px -70px;}
I'm guessing that IE doesn't ignore this . Also try doing a basic reset of your margin and padding at the top of the stylesheet.
Hope this helps, cheers!
Instead of applying
to the body element try aplying this to all elements on the page.{ margin: 0; padding: 0; }
@Paulie_D, overflow: hidden is but one way for a parent to contain floating children - it has no purpose here.
@adrianoprea, IE6 will read honor the star html hack, IE7 will ignore it. And while a reset would clear things, I don't agree with its use on every element (I'm in the minority).
@svoltmer, here's the reason and the corrections. Most every browser will indent a list by default. Some use padding (gecko, webkit) and some use margin (IE). So to start, I'd set the left margin and padding to zero. You've already set the ul left margin to zero but not the padding, so the IE7 shows too far to the left. Zero the padding and FF, Safari will also be too far to the left, but that can be corrected by lessening the negative left margin. So that sets all browsers to same except IE6, which is reading your star html hack. IE6 has a double margin on floats bug which can be corrected by adding display: inline to the ul (#main-nav). This rule is overridden by the float, but for some odd reason fixes the bug. So there should be no need to even use the star-html hack at all.Thanks for all the suggestions! Adding zero padding to the the class #main-nav and removing the negative margin from the ul did the trick. I really appreciate the help!One other question, since you have seen the site. The sidebar contains the div "#social" (rounded corner on the bottom right). Is there a way to make this div always be at the bottom of the maximum height of the div "#main-content". As more content is added to the div #main-content it grows taller and the div "#social" would stay down at the bottom of it. Tks

Hopewell's Shatori Walker Kimbrough is Gatorade PA Girl's Basketball Player of the Year
Category: Sports Written by Courier Newsroom
EMOTIONAL FAREWELL—Shatori Walker-Kimbrough gets emotional as she leaves the court in her last high school game against South Park March 13. Walker- Kimbrough finished her outstanding high school career with 2,427 points. (Courier Photos/William McBride)
CHICAGO—In its 28th year of honoring the nation's best high school athletes, The Gatorade Company, in collaboration with USA TODAY High School Sports, recently announced Shatori Walker-Kimbrough of Hopewell High School as its 2012-13 Gatorade Pennsylvania Girls Basketball Player of the Year.
The award, which recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the court, distinguishes Walker-Kimbrough as Pennsylvania's best high school girls basketball player. Now a finalist for the prestigious Gatorade National Girls Basketball Player of the Year award to be announced this week, Walker-Kimbrough joins an elite alumni association of past state girls basketball award-winners, including Candace Parker (2001-02, Naperville Central HS, Ill.), Diana Taurasi (1998-99 & 1999-00, Don Antonio Lugo HS, Calif.), Maya Moore (2005-06 Collins Hill HS, Ga.), Rashanda McCants (2004-05, Asheville HS, N.C.), Shyra Ely (1999-00, Ben Davis HS, Ind.) and Lisa Leslie (1988-89, Morningside HS, Calif.).
The 5-foot-11 senior guard led the Vikings to a 22-5 record and a second-round clash with South Park in the Class AAA playoffs, on March 13. Walker-Kimbrough scored 20 points for Hopewell but they lost to South Park 50-46. Through 26 games, Walker-Kimbrough was averaging 28.3 points, 10.1 rebounds, 6.8 steals and 4.5 assists.

two-time First Team All-State selection and an Honorable Mention All-American by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association.
Walker-Kimbrough has maintained a 3.90 GPA in the classroom. She has volunteered locally on behalf of food and toy donation drives, as well as the Special Olympics and youth basketball programs.
"Walker-Kimbrough is the most dominant player I've seen in my eight years as a head coach," said Steve Lodovico, head coach at Blackhawk High. "She's very athletic and can get to the rim almost at ease. She's also developed her outside game and has become a threat from 15 feet and out."
Walker-Kimbrough has signed a National Letter of Intent to play basketball on scholarship at the University of Maryland this fall.

McDonald overcomes shaky 1st, Pirates beat Red Sox 4-3
Category: Sports Written by Associated Press
ROUGH START—James McDonald throws during the first inning of an exhibition spring training baseball game against the Boston Red Sox, March 18, in Bradenton, Fla. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio)
BRADENTON, Fla. (AP)—James McDonald was not rattled by his rough start.
McDonald labored in the first inning, then recovered as the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Boston Red Sox 4-3 Monday.
"I got locked back in, kept my composure and finished strong," McDonald said. "I didn't let the game get away from me. I felt confident—every pitch, every moment out there."
Ryan Lavarnway hit a two-run single in the first. McDonald then retired 11 of 14 batters. He gave up four hits and three walks in five innings and struck out six.
This was the second game in a row that McDonald overcame a rocky first inning.
"It's definitely correctable," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. "He's got some weapons. With James, it's about rhythm, pace and timing. That improved as the game went on. We've got to keep him working and take the cerebral part out of it."
McDonald has a 4.19 ERA in five games with 4 strikeouts in 19 1-3 innings.
Neil Walker homered to end Clay Buchholz's 9 1-3 inning scoreless streak and Gaby Sanchez hit a two-run drive.
Walker's leadoff homer in the second was the only hit off Buchholz, who struck out four and walked two in five innings.
Sanchez homered in the seventh against Chris Carpenter, and Michael McKenry hit a solo drive off Oscar Villarreal in the eighth.
NOTES: Red Sox DH David Ortiz's scheduled batting practice was canceled due to continued pain in both heels. "He's not ready for that next phase," Farrell said…The start of the game was delayed by 48 minutes, but it didn't start raining until after the tarp was removed and play got under way…The Pirates reassigned RHPs Gerrit Cole, Brooks Brown, Kyle Waldrop, LHP Kris Johnson and C Ali Solis to their minor league camp. RHP Phil Irwin was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis. Cole, the first overall pick in the 2011 amateur draft, is the team's top prospect.…Closer Jason Grilli pitched a 1-2-3 sixth inning in his first appearance for the Pirates since pitching for Italy in the World Baseball Classic.

Inside Conditions...$50 million chattel
Category: Sports Written by Aubrey Bruce
"From Jackie Robinson to Muhammad Ali and Arthur Ashe, African American athletes have been at the center of modern culture, their on-the-field heroics admired and stratospheric earnings envied. But for all their money, fame, and achievement Black athletes still find themselves on the periphery of true power in the multibillion-dollar industry their talent built. (New York Times columnist William C. Rhoden, author 'Forty Million Dollar Slaves')
As I viewed the latest smash hit, "The Bible," a myriad of sports and social issues danced around in my head, one of those being slavery. Hollywood depicts the inhumanity of forced servitude as almost being "noble." As far as Black athletes are concerned they will probably never understand their true value because it will never be revealed to them. As far as I am concerned the NFL compensation process is biased, corrupt and flawed as it relates to Black athletes. There is nothing noble about it.
As far as the recent free agent and trade situations are concerned; I am now retracing the journey of one Anquan Boldin, former Arizona Cardinals, Baltimore Ravens, now current San Francisco 49ers, wide receiver. Now this intrigues me a bit. For the first seven seasons of his illustrious career, Boldin plied his trade with the Cardinals. He was the man in the clutch. He could go deep, short, across the middle, hey folks he was "Mr. Everything." However, when former Minnesota Vikings ball boy and University of Pittsburgh wide receiver great Larry Fitzgerald arrived in Tempe AZ, the general consensus was that fiscally as well as from a talent perspective, Boldin's days were numbered in the "land of the desert sun." But hold on folks, tell the conductor that we missed a stop because there is more to this than meets the eye. On Feb. 1, 2009 the Steelers defeated the Cardinals to win Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa. Although the game was close and Boldin had a respectable outing, (8 catches for 84 yards) the upcoming 2009 season would be the final season that Boldin would don a Cardinals uniform. It was concluded by many sports journalists' including a few of the "asinine" bloggers that due to their Super Bowl loss, the Cardinals did not have the market or patience to justify retaining two wide-outs whose initial market value could exceed two hundred million dollars. What the sports world failed to recognize was that no matter how great the man is that has to throw the rock, there are a few more variables involved for the man who has to catch the rock….you dig. So after the 2009 season, Boldin followed the golden spike and took the midnight train to Georgia, oops sorry; Charlie Chan meant the "red eye" to Baltimore where he instantly became the "security blanket" for Ravens "journeyman" quarterback Joe Flacco. What was Boldin's reward for his contribution to the Ravens victory in Super Bowl XLVII? Well he was shipped off to the team that he helped to defeat. Do you find it ironic that a year after he lost XLIII, Anquan Boldin was allowed to depart the Cardinals for Baltimore after losing to Pittsburgh and less than ninety days after he helped the Ravens win Super Bowl XLVII he was "traded" to the 49ers, the team coached by the brother of the head coach he played for in Baltimore? Can't you just hear the conversation between 49ers Coach Jim Harbaugh and his sibling John, the coach of the Ravens? This next exchange is merely theoretical and conjectural so don't go blogging "crazy" or blow up the phone lines at "sports talk" because of it. "Hey John, this is Jim calling. I know," says John; "your name came up on the caller I.D., what's up? "Well" Jim replies, "seeing that you had to break the bank with the 120 + million that you had to dole out to Joe "pockets full of dough" Flacco I don't see how you and Ozzie will be able to afford to sign more than a handful of players. Plus you got yours, so let's keep the Lombardi's in the family. Before Anquan gets any serious ideas about getting paid, ship him out West so that we can get that final good year out of him before Roger puts him out to pasture." They gave the man who threw the ball in Super Bowl XLVII, $120 million along with $52 million guaranteed but the man who made more than 50 percent of the "clutch" catches to get him there was carted off to another conference. "Weel about, an' turn about an' do jis so. Eb'ry time I weel about, I jump Jim Crow." (From the biography of Eddie Robinson) Black athletes have been and will continue to be devalued as far as equal compensation for equal talent is concerned as far as the world of professional sports is concerned. Even though he was possibly the greatest college football coach in history, with all due respect to the late coach Robinson, he was just one of the motors on the "conveyor belts" that as Bill Rhoden so elegantly put it; "brings kids from inner cities and small towns to big-time programs, where they're cut off from their roots and exploited by team owners, sports agents, and the media." Black players with less than three years experience unless they are first round or high second round picks receive pitiful sums when compared to their White counterparts. Boldin did all of the right dances and said all of the right things but it did not matter. Anquan Boldon helped Joe Flacco get paid while he was "slay-ed." Most often when Black players say; "show me the money," they are unceremoniously shown the door…..later

Pitt in unfamiliar position in return to NCAAs
Category: Sports Written by Associated Press
FINAL BIG EAST BATTLE--Pittsburgh's Steven Adams (13) goes up past Syracuse's C.J. Fair during the Big East Conference tournament, March 14, in New York. (AP Photo/Mary Altaffer)

AP Sports Writer
PITTSBURGH (AP) — The NCAA tournament held opening weekend games at Consol Energy Center last spring, a few hundred feet from Tray Woodall's front door. The Pittsburgh guard, however, wanted none of it.
"We weren't in the tournament so I didn't go over there," Woodall said. "I was frustrated."
A year later, Woodall and the Panthers are back in the middle of the madness.
Following a lost season in which Pitt missed the tournament for the first time in over a decade, the eighth-seeded Panthers (24-8) will play ninth-seeded Wichita State (26-8) in the second round of the West Region in Salt Lake City on Thursday.
While senior center Dante Taylor admitted he was a little surprised to see a team that went 12-6 in the Big East drop all the way to an eighth seed, it certainly beats the alternative of not being in the tournament at all.
"I definitely think it's something we're going to use to our advantage," Taylor said. "There's nothing we can do about it. Yeah we usually are higher but we've got to prove to people we deserve to be higher."
Pitt hasn't been seeded so low in the NCAA since being a ninth-seed in 2005, when the Panthers were knocked off by Pacific in the opening round. Woodall cautioned Pitt could make another early exit if it takes the Shockers lightly.
"We said while we were watching the (selection) show, we basically could be playing Gonzaga but if we do that we're overlooking" Wichita, Woodall said. "We want to win. Me and Dante want to go out on top. We want to make a big run."
It's something the Panthers failed to do in their final go-round at the Big East tournament last week. Pitt qualified as the fourth seed and earned a double-bye but never really got going in a 62-59 loss to Syracuse.
The Panthers shot just 37 percent from the floor and never led over the final 28 minutes. Taylor earned five stitches over his right eye while battling for a rebound and has missed two straight practices and his vision out of the eye remains blurry. He didn't practice Sunday but insisted "I'll be good" by Thursday.
Pitt will certainly need him against the Shockers, who average a robust 38.4 rebounds per game and will hardly be intimidated against a team that has looked vulnerable at times. The Panthers went just 5-7 against teams that made the NCAA field and have five players making their NCAA tournament debuts, including starting point guard James Robinson and center Steven Adams.
The 7-foot Adams, a New Zealand native, is still trying to get a handle on the NCAAs. It was never a priority while growing up half a world away.
"It never interested me at all," Adams said with a laugh.
Things have changed in the last few weeks. He called the atmosphere at Madison Square Garden for the Big East tournament an eye opener and believes he's better prepared to handle the pressure that comes this time of year.
"I've been progressing," he said. "I've been quite happy about it as I've been gaining a bit more confidence here or there."
Even if the bank of TVs turned to the selection show and the murmur that went up when Pitt's name finally popped up caught him by surprise. Adams has no real sense of what the seeding means. He just knows one loss and the season is over.
"I don't really care who we play, just so long as we win," Adams said.
It's an ethos preached by coach Jamie Dixon. While he anticipated a team that finished fourth in the Big East getting a friendlier seed, he pointed out "nobody except the ones are probably happy with their seeds."
Besides, for once Pitt enters the tournament under the radar. For a program still searching for its first Final Four appearance in the modern era, that's not a bad thing. The Panthers were a No. 1 seed two years ago only to fall victim to eighth-seeded Butler in the second round.
How fitting if they could earn a chance to turn the tables provided they can beat Wichita State first. Pitt dominated the last meeting between the two schools in 2009, rolling to a 68-55 victory behind 19 points from Woodall.
It seems like a long time ago, but for veterans Woodall and Taylor the mission remains the same.
"We've just got to go in and handle business," Taylor said. "We've got to get the W."
"They didn't even tell me there was going to be a whole bunch of people here. They just told me there was going to be food. So I said, 'Sweet, food," Pittsburgh freshman center Steve Adams, who grew up in New Zealand and had no idea why his teammates and a few hundred Panthers fans were gathering to watch the tournament selection show. --AP

After donating 99 AEDs throughout 2012, AED.com is holding a Facebook Video Contest for their last Automated External Defibrillator (AED) donation.
Brentwood, TN (PRWEB) December 31, 2012
With only a few days left in 2012, AED.com is one AED away from donating 100 AEDs (automated external defibrillators) this year. At the beginning of 2012, president and CEO, Matt Spencer, decided to donate 100 AEDs to deserving individuals, causes, and organizations in order to raise awareness.
"The goal was to raise awareness for the need of AEDs anywhere and everywhere Sudden Cardiac Arrest can potentially strike," said Justin Darby, Marketing Director for AED.com. Cardiac Arrest, which strikes more than 383,000 people in the U.S. annually, is the number one cause of death, but there are measures that can be taken in order to prevent it. "The lay rescuer should be able to grab an AED within seconds of a victim collapsing from Sudden Cardiac Arrest. For every minute that passes without therapy from a defibrillator, the victim's chances of survival decrease by 10 percent. After five minutes in cardiac arrest without rescuer assistance, brain damage is likely to occur and there is a very low chance that the victim will survive," commented Darby.
From churches and schools, to athletic fields and foundations, AED.com donated 99 AEDs throughout the year. AED.com's final donation is part of a video contest and that takes place on the AED.com Facebook Page. Contestants are asked to submit a 1 to 3 minute video telling who they would donate an AED to in their name. "This is a fan-voted contest and we want contestants to get creative with their video," remarked Darby. The video with the most votes will be awarded a new AED and wall cabinet valued at over $1,700 on January 7th, 2013, and this will be the 100th AED donation from AED.com. "We are proud to complete this amazing project and give the gift of safety and peace of mind, but more than anything we are proud to potentially give someone the opportunity of extending a life, potentially even their own," commented Darby. By spreading awareness and helping place AEDs in public places, AED.com is contributing in reducing the time it takes to use an AED on a victim of Sudden Cardiac Arrest, and increasing the chances of survival in many public areas.

Congratulations, Tad! Oh, the spiffiness of you. *g*
Yea Tad!! WOOT! WOOT! WOOT!
Yes, I will be present for the ceremony in Munich. This was the thing I couldn't announce until today -- see my earlier comments in Dogblog.In fact, Deb and I will both come for the award. Such things are few and far enough between for me (this is my first) that we're going to suck up all the glory we can.
Congratulations, Tad!
Congrats, Tad! And congrats all of Germany! Imagine, a country where book events are televised! And a country where a great author goes recognized!
Oops, and I forgot to mention: congrats to the German publishers. It's really quite a coup for everyone involved! :)Plus, it surely won't hurt sales of other Tad books... Especially with the award being presented (on TV!) in November!CONGRATS AGAIN, TAD!
Hip hip huzzah for your Oh Dogly One!
yay tad! *throws evil confetti of doom*
:DCongratulations, Dogly One! I hope you're having mad dog moments of delight.
Shads! You know yet if sunday is possible, and if so a time/place? (Am about to hop offline, but saw you active here.)And yay for the Dogly One!
Gah. Dammit. Just missed you. Sent you an email asking the same thing. We're all good!Ahem. Go about your hurrahing.
It really seems Germany has its advantages! I'm really looking forward to see Tad getting the Corine :-) But right now I'm even more looking forward to the get my copy of the Otherland radio play - going to order it today.PLUS - Tad will be in Germany next month! Lucky Germans.
Congragulations, Tad!
I would say some congradulatory remark in German, but then I don't know German, so I'd have to use babelfish, which would instantly make all the german-speakers on the board hate me...*is tempted*
Gl�ckw�nsche auf Ihrer bemerkenswerten Durchf�hrung, die immer seine Markierung nach literarischer Geschichte l��t!*runs*
That's so cool... I was reading a tourist-y intro to German book in Borders yesterday. All I remember is nein, janke, and mawment. No, thank you, and moment. Dunno why those stand out in my memory, but there they are...Anyway, I should read Otherland all the way through in my native language before getting into something as messy and complex as a new language...
Max, that would be 'nein', 'danke' and 'moment'.
Wow, congrats!
Max has just graduated from the Wicked Tribe School of Language.

*slaps head*But! Hmm. So: either, "Stupid book!" or, "Stupid memory!"Probably the memory.

Again, I should actually finish Otherland... or re-read the first book so I can remember how the Wiked Tribe talked...(All I remember is they was funky tal-kers.)[ September 18, 2004: Message edited by: maX-Files ]
Well, at least you got the first one right... :)

Once again several area high school football players shined in the spotlight from last Friday night.
Alex "Booger" Lee caught five passes for 103 yards, a touchdown and set up another score in Mingo Central's homecoming victory over Tolsia. He also recovered a key fumble and had several tackles on defense for the Miners. Lee was the WXCC radio station Player of the Game.
Mikey Newsome threw for three TD passes and 149 yards and no interceptions in Tug Valley's tough loss at Westside.
Belfry's Madison Ghormley got 10 tackles against Ashland in the Pirates game against the Tomcats. Tony Messer hauled in a TD pass and was also strong on defense for BHS.
… Former Williamson High School athlete Wes Robinson, who was paralyzed in a football related accident back in the mid-1990s, was involved in a serious traffic accident last week in Tennessee. Robinson is hospitalized and the Facebook messages for prayers have been many for Wes. If we find out any updates on his condition, we'll let all of our readers know.
… WVU's Andrew Buie, Alex Okafor (Texas) and Tavon Austin (West Virginia) have been named Big 12 Football Players of the Week, as selected by a media panel. Austin, special team player of the week, was recognized for the second time this season after picking up offensive player of the week honors on Sept. 24. Buie was the offensive player of the week, while Okafor got the award for defensive player of the week. It was Buie's and Okafor's first time winning the award.
… Tug Valley's Joe Deskins finished 7th in the state in the Class A golf tournament. He qualified for his performance in the regional tourney. The state match was played in Wheeling. Deskins shot an 82 and 84 for a 2-day total of 166. He was a medalist for his performance in the state tourney and also selected to the All-State team. He is coached by Aileen Perry.
