|Nintendo Gamecube
|Release Date(s)
|(E) Everyone
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords, is the eleventh game in Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series. It was released for the Nintendo GameCube in Japan on March 18, 2004, North America on June 7, 2004, and Europe on January 7, 2005. The Game Boy Advance handheld game console can be used as a controller when using the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance Cable bundled with the game in North America.
The game takes Link on an adventure to restore peace to Hyrule after learning that an evil counterpart of himself, Shadow Link, has been created. He discovers that Ganon is the true villain and journeys to defeat him to retrieve the stolen trident. After defeating Ganon, Link seals him in the Four Sword and peace is returned to Hyrule.
Four Swords Adventures was considered the 48th-best game ever made on a Nintendo system by Nintendo Power, and received an aggregated 86 out of 100 from Metacritic. It is also the third-best selling game of June 2004 in North America, with 155,000 units, and has since sold 250,000 copies. It has also sold 127,000 units in Japan.
[edit] Background
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords is a remake of "A Link to the Past" from the GBA, onto the GC. Up to 4 people can play Four Swords at once using a GC-GBA Link cable. Four Swords emphasizes cooperative gameplay, including fighting, puzzle-solving, etc.
[edit] Gameplay
The Legend continues on Nintendo GameCube in an all-new epic adventure for one to four players. Fusing cooperative and competitive action, Four Swords Adventures features a unique gameplay system that incorporates both the television and the Game Boy Advance. When you enter a building or dive into a cave, your character switches from the TV to the Game Boy Advance. When you emerge, the frantic action shifts back to the big screen. To thwart Vaati's nefarious forces, you'll have to master new skills and techniques never before seen in the Legend of Zelda series
[edit] Features
- Up to four players can link their GBAs to the Nintendo GameCube to join a fun and frantic competition for Force Gems and special items while cooperating to move massive blocks, trigger switches, and slay mighty bosses.
- Explore eight massive worlds in the Hyrulean Adventure mode, or fight your friends in Shadow Battle mode until only one Link remains!
- A rich single-player mode allows you to assume control of all four Links and command their every move by seamlessly switching among battle formations.
- A high-resolution, top-down play perspective features dazzling visual effects like vivid colored lighting, silky-smooth water ripples, swirling smoke and stylized weather effects
[edit] Characters
There are hundreds of characters in Four Swords Adventures, but most of them only appear once, but there are a few that you will encounter on a regular basis.

[edit] Story
After an ominous dark cloud begins to cover Hyrule, Princess Zelda asks her courageous childhood friend Link to check up on the legendary Four Sword, in fear that something sinister is drawing near with the intent to released the evil wind sorcerer Vaati. Link meets her, along with the other six maidens of Hyrule at Hyrule Castle where they open a portal to the sanctuary where the Four Sword is enshrined, but before Link gets a chance to enter it, a dark figure that closely resembles him appears and seals away the maidens, before rushing through the portal. Link has no choice but to follow the mysterious figure, however upon arriving at the Four Sword Sanctuary, Dark Link has already reached the fabled blade and taunts Link before pulling the Four Sword from its pedestal, thus causing Link to split into four separate entities. Likewise, without the sword intact to keep Vaati imprisoned, the seal breaks and the evil sorcerer creeps back into the world.
[edit] Levels & Stages
Each of the eight levels has three stages within it.
[edit] Bosses
Here is a look at the various bosses you must face in Four Swords Adventures, and how to defeat them:
[edit] Weapons/Items
In Four Swords Adventures, their are two types of items, the first type of item is an 'A' button weapon. The other type of item is either used by the 'R' button or is not directly used by Link.
[edit] Game Modes
[edit] Hyrulean Adventure
Hyrulean Adventure is the main part of FSA. You can either play it by yourself. Or invite a few friends over and play it with GBAs.
- Multiplayer: Everything said about single player applies to multiplayer as well, but there is some extra strategy when playing multiplayer. First of all you use gameboy advances and link cables to play. This gives you an extra screen so nobody else can see what you are doing. In multiplayer a winner is declared after each level, the winner is the one who collects the most force gems. So you need to race to get every force gem you can. Also you can attack your friends and make them drop valuable force gems. But be careful! You don't want to do this too often. At the end of the game, each player votes for who was the Hero of Light and the Hero of Darkness, the Hero of Light is rewarded rupees, while the Hero of Darkness gets rupees taken away.
- Single Player: In Hyrulean Adventure there are nine section of the map, they are Whereabouts in the Wind, Eastern Hyrule, Death Mountain, Near the Fields, The Dark World, The Desert of Doubt, Frozen Hyrule and Realm of Heavens. Each section has three levels, and you cannot move onto another section unless you've completely beaten the section before it. Each level is pretty large, and there is a lot of backtracking, so as you go around the level take note of odd things, they may come in use later. You will need to use multiple weapons in each level, and if it is a level with other humans, be sure to talk to all of them if you want hints. To complete each level you need to collect 2,000 force gems to be able to open the gate and complete the level.
[edit] Shadow Battle
If you have friends with GBAs and don't want to play Hyrulean Adventure then yopu can play Shadow Battle. A crazy everyman for himself minigame. There are five levels in all and each one has a Dark World version.
[edit] Formations
There are 6 formation in single player, and 4 in multiplayer (if you are controlling 2 or 3 Links). To change formations, use the 'L' button on the GBA and the C button, 'L' button or D Pad on the GCN. First, here are the two most basic formations: Break Control one Link as the others follow the exact path. To return to this position, press 'X' or SELECT. Individual Allows you to control one Link while the others go inactive.
[edit] Other Information
[edit] Minigames
There are eight unlockable mini games in FSA, all of them are for multiplayer play. Each time you beat a region with two or more people playing, you will unlock the Tingle Tower for that region. Once you go into the Tingle Tower, Tingle will let you play a new minigame.
[edit] Obstacles
There are several types of obstacles in Four Swords Adventures. Many of them are different types of Blocks and switches, here are some tips for figuring them out.
[edit] Controls
In Four Swords Adventures, you can either you the GameCube controller or the GameBoy Advance, but if you want to play multiplayer you must use the GBA.
- GBA: A: Confirm, use items, open treasure, swim, talk, drop items B: Cancel, Use sword (hold down to do a spin attack or use it with the D pad to use a jump attack) L: Display formation window R: Pick up items, grab and lift D: Pad Move and change selections Start: Go to Menu Select: Change leaders
- GCN: A: Confirm, use items, open treasure, swim, talk, drop items B: Cancel, Use sword (hold down to do a spin attack or use it with the D pad to use a jump attack) L: Display formation window R: Pick up items, grab and lift X: Break Formation, change leaders Y: Display formation window C: stick Formation quick change D Pad: Pad Break Formation, change leaders Analog Stick: Move and change selections Start: Go to Menu
[edit] Force Gems
In each level you or your team of Links, needs to collect 2000 force gems to upgrade the Four Sword. Without the upgraded Four Sword, you cannot complete the level. You can find force gems almost anywhere, and they all have different values. Here are the Values:
- Green: Small-1 Large-100
- Blue: Small-5 Large-150
- Red: Small-20 Large-200
- Purple: Small-30 Large-300

Kyrenia Palace Boutique Hotel Review - 6 of 11 Reviews
This is a hotel review for Kyrenia Palace Boutique Hotel in Kyrenia, North Cyprus
"Really something else!"
If you're looking for the wow factor, Kyrenia Palace is the place for you! It was certainly the place for us, we absolutely loved how the hotel looked on the gonorthcyprus website so booked a week's stay and have just got back. It is just as beautiful in person, with really striking rooms, beautifully traditional with antiques dotted around and a lovely courtyard. We had a comfortable room, very luxurious and grand, made us feel like royalty! Staff are super friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxed. Only minutes from the harbour so a great position, too, and the owner is happy to recommend local restaurants to you if you're eating out. We did a bit of mix and match with meals, some we had at the Palace and others elsewhere, I can say that the food we ate here was very nice and they have a good wine selection too. We will be booking a return soon for sure, I cannot recommend Kyrenia Palace enough!

Microsoft Plans To Shake Up Your iPad – Microsoft Office Is Coming!
Microsoft is Expected to Unveil an Office on iPad Suite This Week!
In June 2013, Microsoft released an iOS version of Microsoft Office for the iPhone. According to ZDNet and The Verge, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is planning to announce the long-awaited Microsoft Office on iPad suite on March 27th at a press event in San Francisco. Microsoft hasn't confirmed the rumors. Microsoft's continue their focus on cloud and mobile computing throughout 2014.
For small business owners, the Office on iPad suite will enable staff members to use an iPad to open, create, and edit Microsoft Office files.
The Verge believes the iPad version will be similar to the iPhone version. Ultimately, the features and interface in the iPad version are consistent with the features and interface found in the iPhone version. Each user must have a current Office 365 subscription for editing, you can create and edit documents with the following apps:
- Word
- PowerPoint
- Excel
The Office on iPad suite isn't too surprising, after all, Microsoft has made Office Mobile available for Android and iOS smartphones, however, an Office 365 subscription is required.
The new Microsoft Office (iPad version) will be available in the Apple Store when released.
The company is announcing Windows Phone 8.1 and the Windows 8.1 update at the Microsoft Developers conference. In addition, Microsoft plans to show an early preview of Windows 9, however, details are not confirmed. This important event in the Microsoft software development calendar occurs immediately after Microsoft reveals the Office on the iPad in SFO.
To learn more about the Office on iPad suite, give us a call at (425) 998-9199 or send us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com. Slivertip IT can help you stay up to date on the latest news about Microsoft's Office on iPad suite.

Donna Brockman is 44 and Sean Brockman is 17.
Narrated by Sean.
There's new regulations coming in that makes it more difficult to get into university. All students wishing to enroll will have to sit an exam and will earn points based on their performance during school and the results of the exam. I'll already be in uni by the time they come into action but I thought there wasn't anything wrong with getting a head start anyway. Ramona did well during university and mum is expecting me to do just as well, if not better.
Most of my time is spent either at school, with my head in a book or at the telescope outside.
I'm trying to make time for my girlfriend, Louisa but its been difficult recently. This is our final year in school and since we're both planning to go to college in 2003, we're concentrating on school. Usually we just manage to squeeze in a quick phone call before bed. Atleast we can see each other at school, even if its not the ideal place to spend quality time together.
Mum is trying to work her way up the career ladder. She's never really been bothered about work, aslong as it paid the bills, she was happy. I think she hoped that Ramona would come back home after uni instead of getting her own place but now its clear that Ramona is happy where she is and with me preparing to head off to university, she needs something to keep herself occupied. I don't think i'm that bothered about getting any particular job, I just know that uni will open up a lot more options for me.
Notes: My updates are rarely long but this one is shorter than usual. Mainly because i've been reading Sullivan Sims updates and have pinched a few ideas from there, one being about admissions to university. I plan to update all gameplay posts (sim profiles included) tomorrow but long story short, sims need to earn a certain number of points, earnt through skills, hobby enthusiasm, grades ect, to get into uni. Sean was short by 10 points so I had him skilling like mad to try and get to the minimum requirement. He did it, infact he got a couple extra. Since playing though i've decided its too much pressure for my poor sims and leads to a pretty dull round (i'm trying to make blog posts a lot more interesting!) so I won't be forcing it on the sims due to go to uni in Autumn 2003.

Good morning from Gray. Here's a look at some of the stories you will want to catch before you leave the house on 12 News Today.
Today we'll learn if the man accused of rape at Henrico's Innsbrook Shoppes gets out of jail. Driton Sulemani has a bond hearing this morning. An affidavit says Sulemani met the victim in a group setting at "The Beach House" Bar Friday night. The narrative reads that Sulemani told the victim to follow him out back, behind the bar and that's where police say the attack happened.
A Virginia rapper is now in jail. Police say he is linked to a double homicide that happened six years ago in Newport News. In fact, one of his songs is possibly his confession. His name is Antwain Steward --- better known as "Twain Gotti"...
If you like using the "RVA Shoppers' Shuttle" we have some information you want to hear about. The city plans to start charging riders! Starting Friday, the shuttle will cost riders four dollars per round trip. The RVA Shoppers' Shuttle helps people living in "Food Deserts" gain access to healthy, nutritional, fresh food. The shuttle has five routes that run on the second and ninth day of each month and the third Saturday of each month.
New numbers in this morning show that not too many people are taking the friendly skies in the River City. Richmond International Airport experienced a dip in passenger traffic in June. Traffic at the airport decreased nearly 1 percent to 3.16 million passengers.

A government advisory panel charged with drafting a strategy to help the U.S. semiconductor industry issued its final report yesterday and prepared to shut itself down, its numerous recommendations having gone largely unheeded.
"I expect that we will go out of business," said Ian Ross, the chairman of the National Advisory Committee on Semiconductors and the former president of Bell Laboratories, the research division of American Telephone & Telegraph Co. "We don't really see that there is a role for NACS ongoing, under the present circumstances."
Mr. Ross, who spoke at a Washington news conference, could scarcely conceal his disappointment that the committee, which started out with a bang in 1989, is ending with scarcely a whimper. Almost none of its recommendations have been carried out and, in the committee's view, the nation's computer chip industry is still losing ground to Japanese competitors.

Additive Camp 2017June 20, 2017
As mentioned under "Recent Events" we conducted our 3rd additive manufacturing summer camp for rising juniors and seniors in high school during the week of June 11, 2017. Sid Collins, a rising Sophomore in mechanical engineering here at State, was the lead camp counselor this year under the tutelage of Dr. Ola Harrysson. Working with Sid was our own Matt White, who has managed all of our polymer printers for the past two years. The theme of this year's camp was similar to our previous camps. The goal was to provide campers with the tools and opportunity to optimize the design of a GE jet engine mounting bracket. The goal was achieved, and we here at CAMAL were once again amazed at how quickly students learned how to utilize sophisticated CAD software and other design tools.
Helping throughout the week were visitors from the New York City College of Technology. Lead by Dr. Angran Xiao, three upper-class students first learned and then helped teach campers about the finer points of 3D printing using a variety of polymer technologies. Pictured below from left to right are CityTech students Jordan Derrick, Joyce Tam, and Gamal Mansour; they were welcome additions to our camp staff.
We encountered a few technical challenges along the way, and as usual, it was a mad dash to the finish to get everything completed as needed, but all's well that ends well. Pictures are worth much more than words here:

A Political Companion to Philip Roth
298 pages Pubdate: 06/23/2017 6 x 9
The cloth edition is currently being discounted by 50% as part of our holiday sale. Use code FHOL or FSNO at checkout to receive sale prices.
Philip Roth is widely acknowledged as one of the twentieth century's most prolific and acclaimed writers. Roth's first novel, Goodbye, Columbus (1959), received the National Book Award, and he followed this stunning debut with more than thirty books—earning another National Book Award, two National Book Critics Circle awards, three PEN/Faulkner Awards, and the Pulitzer Prize. Throughout his career, Roth delighted in controversy but often denied that he sought a role as a public intellectual. His statements and vigorous support of suppressed writers in communist Czechoslovakia, however, tell a different story.
In A Political Companion to Philip Roth, established and rising scholars explore the myriad political themes in the author's work. Several of the contributors examine Roth's writings on Jewish identity, Zionism, and American attitudes toward Israel, as well as the influence of his work in other countries. Others investigate Roth's articulation of the roles of gender and sexuality in US culture. This interdisciplinary examination offers a more complete portrait of Roth as a public intellectual and cultural icon. Not only will it fill a gap in scholarship, but it will also provide a broader perspective on the nature and purpose of the acclaimed writer's political thought.
Claudia Franziska Brühwiler is a lecturer and project coordinator at the School of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland. She is the author of Political Initiation in the Novels of Philip Roth.
Lee Trepanier is professor of political science at Saginaw Valley State University. He is author or editor of numerous books, including A Political Companion to Saul Bellow.
A Political Companion to Philip Roth demonstrates powerfully the manifold ways in which Roth's writing often helped to shape, and was in turn shaped by, the larger political climate. The range of topics covered in the volume is impressive and the standard of the contributions is consistently strong. -- David Brauner, author of Contemporary American Fiction
This volume addresses a void in discussions of Roth's work by looking at his thinking on political matters, particularly as they involve identity, the American Jewish experience, Israel, and Cold War fears of communism. -- Choice

Goa govt officials biased, hampering party work for elections: AAP tells EC
In a compliant, the AAP has listed out seven instances in the last three months when its volunteers were allegedly threatened and assaulted and yet no action was taken against the culprits.india Updated: Jan 17, 2017 17:57 IST
The Aam Aadmi Party on Tuesday approached the Election Commission of India alleging the Goa government 's "hostile" officials of bias, as it raised the issue of symbols identical to the party's "broom" being used by some to "mislead" the people.
AAP's Delhi unit convenor Dilip Pandey also accused many officials of working under the "influence" of the ruling BJP in Goa.
In a compliant, the AAP has listed out seven instances in the last three months when its volunteers were allegedly threatened and assaulted and yet no action was taken against the culprits.
"AAP volunteers are being beaten up. Police stations have threatened our advertising agencies to pull down our advertisements even before the model code of conduct came into force.
"Our meetings have been stopped by flying squads even after requisite permission was taken," AAP's national secretary Pankaj Gupta said in his complaint to the ECI.
Of the seven complaints, four have been made against Panaji police station while the rest are against other police stations and officials in the civic administration.
The party said a free and fair election is not possible unless action is taken against these officers.
"For the sake of conduct of Goa assembly election in an unbiased manner and also for the sake of high ethical standards held by the Election Commission of India, it is imperative that ECI takes some deterrent steps against erring officials to send a signal that any show of bias and favouritism shall not be tolerated by it," Gupta said.
The party also raised the issue of symbols identical to its 'broom', like a battery or a torch and claimed that it is being used in the campaign.
Pandey said such identical and "misleading" symbols had eaten into party's votes in the Delhi Assembly polls in 2013 and 2015 and could hurt the party's prospects in the state.
"The torch and the broom symbol are not a part of the free symbols list of the Election Commission. Despite this, an identical battery or torch is used by some candidates during their campaign.
"This is being done to mislead the people ahead of the polls," Pandey said.

Korean beauty products have been on the rise in the beauty industry as of late. With the adorable packaging and mostly natural ingredients, it comes as no surprise. I picked up a few items myself and here are my thoughts:
Tony Moly Banana Hand Milk. Light formula and smells like a fresh, ripe banana. It's made with shea butters and milk proteins to moisturize and the banana extract is full of nutrients for your skin.
Tony Moly Red Apple Hand Cream. This is one of my favorite from the bunch. It smells just like a crisp red apple and feels very luxurious. It is super moisturizing and does not leave a greasy after feel.
Tony Moly Bunny Pocket Sleek Mist. Probably the cutest packaging of them all. This mist hydrates the skin and helps keep your makeup in place.
Tony Moly Panda's Dream Brightening Eye Base. This product is so smooth and silky. As the name explains, it helps brighten your under eyes and covers any dark circles.
Tony Moly Peach Lip Balm. My other favorite from the group, this smooth lip balm hydrates my lips instantly and smells amazing. I am very tempted to purchase the cherry and blueberry lip balm as well.

Via The Guardian Nigeria: NCDC confirms nine new cases of Lassa fever, two deaths. Excerpt:
The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) yesterday confirmed nine new cases of Lassa fever epidemic with two deaths, in one week, including the first confirmed case in Enugu State since beginning of outbreak.
The NCDC, however, blamed the persistent outbreak of Lassa fever in the country on poor environmental sanitation conditions observed in high burden communities.
Latest figures from the NCDC published yesterday stated: "In the reporting Week 31 (July 30-August 5, 2018), nine new confirmed cases were reported from Edo (seven), Ondo (one) and Enugu (one) with two new deaths from Edo (one) and Enugu (one).
According to the NCDC report, 22 states have recorded at least one confirmed case across 72 local councils (Edo, Ondo, Bauchi, Nasarawa, Ebonyi, Anambra, Benue, Kogi, Imo, Plateau, Lagos, Taraba, Delta, Osun, Rivers, FCT, Gombe, Ekiti, Kaduna, Abia, Adamawa and Enugu – the new addition). Nineteen states have exited the active phase of the outbreak while three – Edo Ondo and Enugu states – remain active.
The Centre noted that no new healthcare worker was infected but 39 healthcare workers have been affected since the onset of the outbreak in seven states – Ebonyi (16), Edo (14), Ondo (four), Kogi (two), Nasarawa (one), Taraba (one) and Abia (one) with 10 deaths in Ebonyi (six), Kogi (one), Abia (one), Ondo (one) and Edo (one).
According to the NCDC, 82 per cent of all confirmed cases are from three states; Edo (44 per cent), Ondo (24 per cent) and Ebonyi (14 per cent) while 10 patients are currently being managed at treatment centres – seven at Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital (ISTH) and three at the Federal Medical Centre Owo Treatment Centre.

Rihanna And Drake Went Out After The VMAs And Looked Very "In Love"
And then they went out again the night after that!
It may have looked like Drake got curved trying to kiss Rihanna on stage at the VMAs on Sunday, but according to recent reports, whatever Drake and Rih have going on is still going strong.
After Drake got up on stage and waxed poetic about how amazing and wonderful Rihanna is - and described her as "someone I've been in love with since I was 22" - the pair went to dinner at Carbone, then hit up the Up&Down nightclub for a Roc Nation party, Page Six reports. They arrived to the party "looking very much like a couple and very in love," and sat in the private section and left late together.
"They were holding hands and looked very affectionate," an eye witness told Page Six.
They were spotted out again the next night, getting into the same car together after what the Daily Mail describes as an "intimate dinner date" at Nobu in NYC.
Two date nights in a row? Drake and Rih may not have made it official yet, but at this rate, it seems like it's only a matter of time.

Yoga Nidra also known as Yoga Sleep is a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping which is quite similar to "going to sleep" stage. This is the state in which our body experiences complete relaxation, which systematically and increasingly makes us aware of our inner world. Yoga Nidra is one of the ancient practices found in Indian traditions. It is considered one of the deepest possible states of relaxation while still maintaining full consciousness.
Yoga Nidra is considered as an ideal way of ending your typical Yoga session. This makes the Yoga practice more effective and provides deep restoration to your body and the mind and also helps to increase the energy levels of the body. Yoga Nidra can literally take you to the next level where you experience a relaxed body, fluid mind, and supercharged intuition.
Yoga Nidra is a five-step process beginning with a body scan to keep your physical presence engaged. Further stages include meditation on the breath, the balancing of emotional states, visualization, self-healing and setting a positive intention.
Yoga Nidra allows us to wander through the entire body by moving through different stages of consciousness just as in sleep. It makes one shift between the waking state, dream state, and finally to deep, dreamless sleep. This helps to create deep relaxation for mental peace, health, and higher awareness.
It's said that 45 minutes of Yoga Nidra is as restorative as 3 hours of sleep and continuous practice can lead your autonomic nervous system to self-mastery.
Yoga Nidra not only helps to improve your mental health but also boosts the functioning of the immune and metabolic system thereby making you physically healthy.
Is Yoga Nidra For Me?
1- Prevents all types of colds and infections.
2- Improves mental health.
3- Helps fight with insomnia, anxiety attacks, and depression.
4- Balances the body temperature after yoga postures.
5- Stimulates the nervous system to absorb the effects of yoga asanas

Move along. There's nothing to see here.
Sure, Johnson & Johnson
The main culprit of the reduced earnings was changes in currency. As the dollar gets stronger, sales outside the U.S. don't look as hot when the company converts them to U.S. dollars for its earnings report.
What does that have to do with Johnson & Johnson's core business? Absolutely nothing. The currency fluctuations -- in both directions -- are mostly out of the big pharma's hands. Johnson & Johnson could buy hedges, but do you really want the drug company you're invested in making hedges just to smooth out earnings? It's not like banks do a good job with their hedges.
Johnson & Johnson's core business isn't much different from what it was in the first quarter. Generic competition continues to affect sales of U.S. prescription drugs; sales were down 4.5% year over year. Rest-of-world sales -- up 15.5% before accounting for the aforementioned currency changes -- kept drug-sales growth in positive territory, but much of that was because it now books sales of Remicade, formerly sold by partner Merck
Sales of medical devices were up 3.4% year over year at constant currency -- nothing to get too excited about.
And the dreaded consumer division managed to keep sales flat at constant currency. The year-over-year comparisons aren't looking as bad, with the recalls mostly finished, but it's nowhere near turning around just yet. Getting over-the-counter meds back on the shelves will be the easy part. Wooing back customers from Pfizer
I continue to think Johnson & Johnson's best quality as an investment is its dividend. The company will turn things around; it's Johnson & Johnson, for heaven's sake. But it might be a while -- should we measure the time in reversals of the dollar strength? -- but the dividend will keep coming and offer a bit of a floor to the price even if earnings aren't increasing all that much.

The first thing that you need to achieve would be to secure respectable page ranking in search engines. Should your website is actually showing on relevant listings, amazing web traffic will follow.

For you to earn the rely on of your clients, I would suggest that you give them test coaching sessions. These no cost sessions don't really need to be very long. In fact, they're able to last for less than 20 minutes. Desire to here is to offer your prospective customers an idea as to how you can instructor them. If they were impressed, they will you should think about buying from you. Building a very good reputation along with being generally known as somebody that is extremely devoted in making your paying consumers extremely pleased can also help.
You can easily communicate your programs' unique promoting preposition. Each time you promote them, emphasize their features and benefits. Then, educate your prospects you are the only one offering these. This could certainly you could make your programs more pleasing to their eye.
Driving certified traffic to your blog post and web site is relatively effortless although it requires enormous energy and time. Aside from distributing articles to be able to directories and also securing much better page ranking on the search engines, promoting your site through blogging and site-building, social media marketing, internet marketing, forum and blog commenting, etc. would furthermore help.
To secure respectable number of sales opportunities, send all the qualified prospects as is possible to your website and earn regular follow-ups. You need to increase their attention over your own programs so that you can easily get them to buy faster.

We're finally getting down to the good stuff as the first teaser for Arnold Schwarzenegger's triumphant return to the Terminator franchise in Terminator: Genisys hits the Internet. It's pretty damn quick, but there's plenty to see and speculate about. Click on through and take a look.
It's easy to see, even in this little amount of footage the action based influence of director Alan Taylor (Thor: The Dark World). See for yourself:
Here's that money shot one more time. He's back, and he's looking at his robot hand again. Maybe it's just me but that shot is screaming for Arnie in that same position, but with a human skull in his hand.
Well, are you excited? There was old style Terminator Arnie, one of the T-1000 models that use liquid metal, some kind of time travel platform, and missiles flying across the globe in what can only be the beginning of the end of the human race.

The last post in my Wedding Reminiscing Series...
Here we have... the Reception :)
Remember how I really didn't enjoy bossing my helpers around to decorate for the reception? And even so, the decorations turned out really well! I loved how it all came together...
The Head Table
The Head Table with a few of the circle tables to show all they all coordinated.
My mother's wedding dress, my mother-in-law's dress and my grandmother-in-law's dress.
(I wish I would have had these labeled).
Old wedding pictures from my family and Dan's family. (I wish these would have been labeled as well).
The punch table and the gift table (the cards were put into a hat box - it's hidden there on the left side).
I loved borrowing glassware and doilies from family members and being able to use them at the reception, along with the old dresses and photos. It was nice connecting to historic family celebrations in that way :)
All in all, the wedding day was a fun day (that I'm glad that I never have to do again!, Ha!)

Happy Friday y'all!
When I saw this cover, I had to know more. Don't you just love the contrast of the grays and the red? Since she was touring with Prism Book Tour, I decided to invite Jennifer Silverwood to join us for a little interview to get to know her and her book a little more. And stay tuned to see how you can win a $20 Amazon gift card and a copy of Craving Beauty. So without further ado:
On Tour with Prism Book Tours.
by Jennifer Silverwood
YA Dark Fantasy
Paperback & ebook, 239 pages
October 31st 2015
Vynasha has spent the last four years tending her mother's roses and looking after her nephew. The fire that killed their family has left her scarred and put Wyll on the brink of death. Soon the first frost will come down from the mountains and she knows this winter will be his last.
Until a strange beggar appears on the road, telling her of the majikal Source that can heal her Wyll. With nothing left to lose, Vynasha braves the forbidden Wylder Mountains to seek out a cure and her fate.
A lost kingdom is uncovered by an equally lost girl, but the castle is not abandoned as she believes. Shadows cloaking unseen eyes watch. Tapestries whisper from the hidden corners, wondering if the one to break their curse has come. And a hungry beast waits, ready to devour her soul.
Print copy of Craving Beauty + swag (Us Only)
Ends November 27th
Now for the interview.
Please welcome Jennifer Silverwood!
Hi Jennifer Silverwood! Please tell us a bit about you. What do you like to do when you aren't writing? Any hobbies?
Howdy Jennette! Thanks so much for having me on your blog! It's always a pleasure meeting a fellow dreamer and fantasy author. For starters, I live in a hundred-year-old farmhouse in the woods, so a lot of my day is spent keeping up with it. When I'm not writing I love to sketch with pastel chalk, play piano and read everything I can get my hands on.
Are you a coffee or tea person?
When I was little my grandpa always made us "coffee-milk", which is mostly milk and a little coffee. I've drank it the same way most of my life. We had an exchange student from Poland live with us a while when I was kid, and she introduced hot tea to our household. So I'm happy to say I have a strong affinity for both.
Do you have any children or pets?
As a matter of fact I'm almost eight months pregnant with our first child. We are due around Christmas! We have a Great Dane who thinks he's a lap dog, even though he weighs as much as I do (when I'm not pregnant 😉
Oh! Well, congratulations! I hope everything goes smoothly for you!
What are some of your favorite books?
A few old and new favorite books of mine include "Gone With the Wind" by Margaret Mitchell, "Sunshine" by Robin McKinley, "Daughter of Smoke & Bone" by Laini Taylor, and "Into the Land of the Unicorns" by Bruce Coville.
Tell us a little about Craving Beauty. What inspired you to write this story?
Craving Beauty is a YA Dark Fantasy retelling of Beauty & the Beast. Much like in the classic tale, a beauty must journey to an enchanted castle to save a beast. However in this retelling, our heroine, Vynasha is covered in scars. The castle she is discovers is under a dark curse that preys on the souls of those who live there. And the Beast has trouble controlling his appetite.
I wrote Craving Beauty because I had always wanted to read a gothic, high fantasy version of Beauty & the Beast and also for lifelong love of the original fairy tale.
What do you hope people walk away with after they finish reading this book?
After finishing Craving Beauty, Vol 1, I hope everyone immediately wants to read the next installment. Seriously though, I hope to inspire others through Vynasha's journey, to find their inner courage and beauty.
What are you working on now? What's next for you?
As you might have guessed, I'm already hard at work on the sequel to Craving Beauty, as well as polishing up the companion novella, Wolfsbane's Daughter. I'm also working on a contemporary adult romance novel called "Moonlight." I hope to publish all three this next year, so be on the lookout for news from my website!
And just for fun, if you could visit any time and place in the world, where would you go and why?
So many possibilities! Since it would only be for a visit and I wouldn't have to worry about long-term hygiene issues, I would visit eighteenth century Scotland. This may have quite a lot to do with the fact I've been reading "Outlander" by Diana Gabaldon. Or it may be because I've always been a romantic at heart. There is just something about Scotland and that time period of Highland clans and the fight against England that makes me want to dive into the history and culture and stay a while longer.
Thank you Jennifer Silverwood!
So what do you think? Do you like fairy tale retellings? I know I've tried my hand at a few for Anne Elisabeth Stengl's writing contests, but I've not successfully finished one yet.
What is your favorite fairy tale?
And I hope all of you have a great weekend!

If we are to judge things by the numbers, ranking 15th of 23 is really bad.
This is actually the Philippines' standing among 23 developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region in terms of real per-capita income, or average earnings per person. This is according to a study made by the Asian Development Bank that underscored the disparities in the living standards among countries in the said region. For more information on this news item, you can visit this link from Inquirer.net.
In fairness, we're still ahead of Pakistan (17th), Vietnam (18th), and India (19th).
I don't even know if I can call this "consuelo de bobo." Imagine: during the Ramos administration in the mid 90s, the Philippines was already considered as the "Sleeping Tiger of Asia." Even earlier than that in the late 60s (I wasn't alive yet), countries like Thailand and Malaysia were sending their citizens to the Philippines to be schooled on the newest methods in agriculture and other developmental skills. These countries were waaaaay behind us at that time.
Now, Malaysia and Thailand are ranked sixth and eighth respectively in the said ADB report. That, despite the Thai baht's dramatic fall in recent time and Malaysia's economic and political problems that are much like ours.
What's even scarier is that Pakistan -- a land swept by the ravages of armed conflict and civil unrest -- is fast catching up on the Philippines.
Even Vietnam is also on its way to leap-frogging over the Philippines despite the fact that the red Communist flag is flying high over its capital.
As for India, this country is learning to tap its strongest natural resources: its people and its land. India is turning into a very busy exotic tourist destination. Moreover, with its cheap labor to rival China and our country as well as its fast-growing English proficiency, foreign investors are now looking at India as the newest investment hub.
It is also disturbing to note that Sri Lanka -- once considered as among the poorest nations in the world -- has landed on the 13th spot in the ADB report. That's two places ahead of the Philippines.
If I find out that Bangladesh outruns the Philippines in the race for economic supremacy......I'm transferring to Timbuktu.
Or I'll be praying to St. Antonio Trillanes IV for redemption.

He did it in 1993, 1995, 1997 and 1999. The list goes on. For the past seven general elections, residents have got used to seeing signs for Al Lavender displayed on lawns across town. And they will again this year.
He did it in 1993, 1995, 1997 and 1999. The list goes on.
For the past seven general elections, residents have got used to seeing signs for Al Lavender displayed on lawns across town.
And they will again this year. The former one-term mayor and three-term city councilor announced this week that he is taking another shot at getting elected in November.
But after two failed mayoral runs, Lavender will leave that battle to Mayor John Moak and teen challenger Gardiner Bacon. Fed up with the City Council, which he calls "the worst I've ever seen," he is going after one of the councilor at-large seats.
Against charging for parking in city lots and for keeping parking on the waterfront, Lavender expects his campaign to pick up in the fall. Years of campaigning have taught him that you can do all the right things and still not get elected. But, he said, "I think I've enough constituents out there."
The Current asked Lavender a few questions about his candidacy:
Why not run for mayor?
"A lot of people have asked me if I was running for mayor but I think we need a new City Council before we need a new mayor. I think the mayor is doing a reasonably good job although I don't always agree with him - the override being one issue. But his heart is in the right place and he's making decisions for the right reasons."
Why don't you like the City Council?
"Several councilors seem to have their own agenda. Three to four of them vote against everything that the mayor is for. Some are doing it because their candidate didn't win the last election; some are wannabe mayors and want to make the mayor look bad. My attitude has always been to do what's right for the city and not worry about what people may think."
Why do you want to get involved in local politics again?
"Somebody has got to do it. This is the worst City Council that I've ever seen. I've tried to encourage a few others to run but I feel can't do that unless I'm ready to do it myself. I began thinking about it last fall and made up my mind earlier this year."
What is the main issue that concerns you?
"The strongest issue right now is the override; I'm not convinced it's the right thing to do at this point. Since I've been involved in local politics, every budget season the school department seems to play games and brings up issues that get the voters riled up, closing the Kelley School is one example, cutting sports and overcrowding are others. But now they can close eight classrooms at the Kelley School and an additional eight at the Brown School and yet they can solve the overcrowding in the process. It doesn't make sense. An override should be the last resort."
Anything else?
"I still think we should keep the majority of parking on the waterfront. One attraction is the access to the waterfront and the Boardwalk. Do we need a garage? Maybe, but if you take all the parking off the waterfront, the Boardwalk won't be used to the same extent. We can't expect the elderly to park a quarter of a mile away and walk to the water."
Some people blame the landfill mess on the contract that you negotiated with New Ventures, the company in charge of capping the landfill. State Rep. Mike Costello, for example, called it "full of holes." How will you respond to that criticism?
"When we negotiated that, the landfill company would pay for someone to oversee the capping. I'm not sure if that has been done. The mechanism was there if the administration after mine had followed up on it. At the time, something had to be done with the landfill. If the owner was not going to cap it, the responsibility would fall on the city at an estimated cost of $2 million plus. If the owner had done it in a responsible way, it would have been the best way out."
What have you learned from past successful and failed campaigns?
"I learned that you can do the right thing and still not get elected. My strategy is not to run for mayor but City Council, an easier campaign obviously. I think I've enough constituents out there. I've always run at large. My neighbor, Erford Fowler, is the Ward 4 councilor. He has always run for the Ward seat and I have always run at large.
Who are your supporters?
"People who've supported me in the past, who know my heart is in the right place and know I come with no private agendas. I will start right away by getting people to sign my nomination papers. Once you take the papers out, you're in the race."
Do you have any old signs left?
"Most say 'mayor' on them (laughs). I may have some but I need to print some new ones. I will put out fliers and take out newspaper ads. Knocking on doors and displaying signs are the most important things. The campaign will pick up after Yankee Homecoming."
About the candidate
Name: Al Lavender
Age: 64
Family: Wife, Betty; Three grown children who graduated from the Newburyport Public Schools

There are currently about 1,700 pupils, together with over 100 teachers at Bell Baxter High School. In addition to this the school is supported by a keen army of auxiliary teachers and a large number of non-teaching staff.
The South Wing of the Carslogie Road building was reopened at the start of Session 02/03. This marked the completion of a major stage in the building's development plan.
The Craft & Design block was completed for the start of the 03/04 Session. Although the Physical Education facilities have also been refurbished there are still plans for further refurbishments
Select Department:
Art and Design Biology Business CDT Chemistry Chess Computing Drama English French Geography German History Home Economics Learning Support LRC Mathematics Modern Studies Music PE Physics Religious Studies Social Education Special Education
Bell Baxter would still like to see its plan of having an artificial grass covered playing field on site met. Such a facility would be a great asset to both the pupils of the school and the community at large. With your help we may still see this dream of ours realised.
Bell Baxter High School was descended from the Cupar Grammar School and was founded in 1889 when the Madras Academy combined with the Sir David Baxter's Institute for Young Ladies.
Since 1962, the accommodation for the school has been on two main sites; Carslogie Road and Westport. The two sites are approximately three-quarters of a mile apart.
The oldest part of Westport building was first used in 1890 with the rest of the building being built in 1929. Because of the large number of pupils using this site a great number of wooden huts were build to accommodate them.
The Carslogie Road building was opened in 1962 and over the years there have been on-going refurbishments here which has resulted in the school (almost) being able to operate from one site.
Dear Parent
It is difficult for me to believe that I have already been at Bell Baxter for seven weeks. I
was delighted to be appointed as Rector and excited at the prospect of leading a school
which is held in such high regard.
I have spent much of my first weeks introducing myself to staff and pupils as well as
getting to know the school. The commitment of so many young people to study and extra
curricular activities, combined with the professionalism of staff has impressed me hugely.
I am determined to maintain the best of Bell Baxter but to seek improvement, where
necessary, to provide the best possible education for all.
I expect a high standard of behaviour and adherence to our school dress code from pupils.
This has already been made clear at assemblies and has also been a theme of visits to
classes by senior staff. I do hope that I can expect your full support in maintaining our
high standards.
I am also keen to encourage parents to play an active role in the life and work of the
school. Research shows that when parents are involved in their child's education, children
do better at school.
From August, a change in legislation will see a Parent Council replace the School Board.
All parents are automatically members of a Parent Forum and will be consulted on the
formation of the Parent Council. To facilitate this, I invite you to join me at a meeting in
the school on Tuesday 26th June at 7.30pm. At this meeting I will lead discussion about the
various options for our Parent Council. These options will then be the subject of further
consultation with parents before a constitution for the Parent Council is agreed. If you
have any questions regarding this or would like to discuss it further, prior to the meeting,
please do not hesitate to contact me.
In any case, as member of the Parent Forum you will receive information about the school
and its activities. You will also be invited to take an active involvement in the school in
ways and at times which suit you. Furthermore the Parent Council will ask your opinion
on issues relating to Bell Baxter and the education it provides.
It is my firm belief, as Rector, that we must work together to ensure that your child
receives the best possible education during their time here. Let me assure you I will do
everything within my power to achieve this.
I look forward to meeting you all over the coming months.
Philip Black

When comparing MPC-HC vs MPV, the Slant community recommends MPV for most people. In the question"What are the best media players for Windows?" MPV is ranked 3rd while MPC-HC is ranked 4th. The most important reason people chose MPV is:
Everything MPV needs to play media files is contained within which means no outside codecs are needed.
Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking
Pro Supports H.265, and has for over 2 years
VLC only recently improved their support for H.265 in Feb 2015, before that it didn't work as well as MPC-HC's.
Pro Supports frame stepping with Ctrl+Left/Right
Useful for game development frame debugging. Your average user won't need this. VLC has frame advance, but it's hidden and non-intuitive; I'm not sure if VLC can step backwards, I don't think it can. So, MPC-HC is better in my book for that functionality.
Pro Needs no additional codecs
Everything MPV needs to play media files is contained within which means no outside codecs are needed.
Pro Minimal interface
The whole interface is just a video with a minimal OSD.
Pro Integrates with streaming services
When used with youtube-dl.
Pro Caches livestreams
Intelligently caches livestreams and enables jumping within the cached stream.
Con Windows only
MPC-HC supports only Windows operating systems.
Con Lack of a typical GUI can be jarring to some
The minimal interface comes at the cost of beginner-friendliness. You need to know keyboard shortcuts by heart, settings are set in text files, right-clicking won't bring up a menu, etc.

Skirting around
I love wrap skirts. They're just so versatile. Add a snappy V-neck and a pair of cute slingbacks, and you're ready to go for an office meeting. Throw on a tee and some ballet flats, and you're as casual as can be. Plus, with a wrap, you don't have to worry if you've say, ingested an entire bag of Pirate's Booty or consumed your body weight in Nutella the day before. The waistline is adjustable!
For my first foray into the skirt arena, I followed the pattern for the "Easy Breezy Wrap Skirt" from the Sew Everything Workshop. Very clear instructions, and a great intro to wearable items. It was fairly straightforward, the only tricky part was sewing the straight band to the slightly curved waistline.
I did make one minor change - I switched the tie opening to the opposite side. For reasons I can't explain, I like the ties to hang down on my left hand side. Probably because I'm left handed. Oh hey, look at that, guess I can explain it. ;)
The skirt has an A-line shape with darts in the front and back, so it's very flattering and super comfy. The fabric is what I'm pretty much sticking to as a beginner - a clean, crisp, 100% cotton print from Joann's. When they're 40% off, you can whip a skirt like this out for around $10. Hard to beat that!
I'm so happy with how this turned out! It's a great addition to my spring/summer wardrobe!

Frasier (1993)
1 corrected entry in Motor Skills
Starring: David Hyde Pierce, Jane Leeves, John Mahoney, Kelsey Grammer, Peri Gilpin
Corrected entry: Roz acquires a Dalmatian puppy which is constantly referred to as a "he" even though it is a she. Roz even names it "Ariel" which Marty scoffs at as a girl's name. Later in the season the dog appears again, having grown quite a bit, but while it may not be the same dog, it is still a female, and is still referred to as "he".
Correction: Having numerous cats and dogs over the years I can tell you its very easy to mistake the animals gender at times simply because gender is not as big an issue with pets. A friend of mine had a female dog called Harry who looked more male. I still referred to the dog as a "he" many times despite it being a female dog.Lummie
