PART ONE | PERSONAL INCOME TAX DEVELOPMENTSI. Various Sunset Dates Extended for a Number of Incentive Credits that Were Scheduled to Expire in 2012. | Under House Bill 1025 (Session Law 2012-36), sunset dates for the following personal income and corporate tax credits have been extended from Jan. 1, 2013 to Jan. 1, 2014:1. The Article 3J credits for creating jobs, investing in real property and investing in business property;2. The work opportunity tax credit;3. The tax credit for premiums paid on long-term care insurance;4. The refundable earned income credit;5. The credit for adoption expenses; and6. The qualified business venture credit.Also, the sunset dates for historic rehabilitation credit and the mill rehabilitation credit are extended from January 1, 2014 to January 1, 2015. All other credits (other than the credit for rehabilitating historic structures and historic mill property) are scheduled to expire after 2013.II. North Carolina Adopts Educator's Expense Deduction. | The federal educator's expense deduction was scheduled to expire beginning with the 2012 tax year. G.S. 105-134.6(d)(9) has been amended to allow for a specific North Carolina state educator's expense deduction beginning with the 2012 tax year to the extent that the deduction has not been claimed for purposes of determining federal AGI (i.e. if the federal legislation is not extended for tax years 2012 and beyond). House Bill 1015 (Session Law 2012-74). The maximum educator's expense deduction for North Carolina tax purposes is $250 per educator or $500 for married filing jointly taxpayers if both spouses are educators. These expense deductions are limited to expenses incurred to purchase books or other non-athletic supplies, including computer equipment, software and other items used in the classroom. III. Clarifying Changes to Prorating North Carolina Income for Part-Year Residents and Non-Residents. | In 2011, the General Assembly changed the starting point for calculating North Carolina taxable income from federal "taxable income" to federal "adjusted gross income." This past summer, the General Assembly enacted S.B. 826 (Session Law 2012-79) amending G.S. 105-134.5 to make it clear that, for purposes of prorating North Carolina taxable income for non-residents and part-year residents, the relevant proration factor should refer to "gross income" rather than to "adjusted gross income." IV. Clarifying Changes to Modifying Adjusted Gross Income. | Effective Jan. 1, 2012 G.S. 105-134.6(a2) has been revised to clarify that in determining a taxpayer's North Carolina taxable income, the taxpayer can choose to use the North Carolina standard deduction amount or the federal itemized deduction amount. However, the allowable North Carolina standard deduction amount is the lesser of (i) the North Carolina standard deduction amount shown on the statutory tables, or (ii) the federal standard deduction amount allowable under the federal tax code. (SB 826, Session Law 2012-79).V. NCDOR Issues a Directive to Interpret the New Individual Income Tax Deduction for Net Business Income. | On June 11, 2012, the NCDOR issued a new Directive (No. PD-12-2) interpreting the new $50,000 "Net Business Income Tax Deduction" for North Carolina income tax purposes under G.S. 105-134.6(b)(22). The Directive is presented in a "frequently asked questions" (FAQ) format and includes the following observations:1. S corporation wages are not "business income" of an S corporation. The Directive states that, for purposes of determining the net business income of an S Corporation, wages paid to the S Corporation owners are not considered to be net business income.
Example: The taxpayer is a 25 percent shareholder of an S corporation from which he receives non-passive income. The taxpayer reports $25,000 of the non-passive income on his Schedule E resulting from $25,000 of ordinary income as shown in his Form 1120-S K-1. The $25,000 is the shareholder's portion of the $240,000 total S corporation income less $140,000 of wages paid to the S Corporation owner and to others (S corporation net income of $100,000). The total non-passive income of the S Corporation is $100,000 ($240,000 total income minus $140,000 of wages). The taxpayer may claim a net business income tax deduction of only $25,000, even though the S Corporation shareholder also received wages from his S Corporation. In other words, the wages paid to the S corp shareholder by the S corporation are not net business income.2. The Directive provides that all of the taxpayer's net business income and net business losses must be aggregated before determining the net business income tax deduction. Example: The taxpayer reports a net profit of $60,000 from a non-passive business activity on his federal Schedule C and a partnership loss of $70,000 from a non-passive business activity on his federal Schedule E. Is the taxpayer entitled to any net business income deduction? No. If non-passive losses exceed non-passive income, the taxpayer is not entitled to any net business income deduction for the year.3. The Directive provides that non-passive income of one spouse is not reduced by the non-passive loss of the other spouse.
Example: Taxpayers are a married couple filing jointly. Mr. Taxpayer reports a net loss of $60,000 from a non-passive business activity on his federal Schedule C, and Mrs. Taxpayer reports partnership income of $70,000 from a non-passive business activity on Schedule E. Are the taxpayers entitled to a deduction? The Department advises that the Taxpayers may claim a net business income deduction of $50,000 against Mrs. Taxpayer's non-passive partnership income because the maximum dollar amount of the deduction is applied separately to each spouse. Although Mr. Taxpayer suffered a loss from a non-passive activity, the Taxpayers may claim a net business income tax deduction of $50,000 against the non-passive income from Mrs. Taxpayer's partnership income. In other words, Mr. Taxpayer's sustained net loss is not offset against Mrs. Taxpayer's non-passive income.4. The Directive provides that the $50,000 maximum deduction is applied separately to non-passive income for each spouse of two spouses filing a joint return.Example: Taxpayers are a married couple filing jointly. Mr. Taxpayer reports a net profit of $20,000 for non-passive business activity on his federal Schedule C, and Mrs. Taxpayer reports a net profit of $60,000 from an unrelated non-passive business activity on federal Schedule C. What deductions are available to the taxpayers? The taxpayers are entitled to claim a net business income deduction of $70,000 ($20,000 for husband and $50,000 for wife).5. The Directive makes clear that married taxpayers may be entitled to net business income tax deductions for non-passive income generated through the same pass-through business entity.Example: Taxpayers are a married couple filing jointly. Mr. Taxpayer owns 60 percent of a single pass-through entity, and Mrs. Taxpayer owns the other 40 percent. Mr. Taxpayer reports $60,000 of non-passive income from the pass-through activity, and Mrs. Taxpayer reports $40,000 of income from the pass-through entity on federal Schedule E. What is the deduction available to the taxpayers? The taxpayers are entitled to claim a net business deduction of $90,000 ($50,000 for husband and $40,000 for wife).PART TWO | NORTH CAROLINA SALES AND USE TAX DEVELOPMENTSVI. Items Given Away by a Merchant Are Now Treated as Sold for Sales Tax Purposes. | Under new G.S. 105-164.12C, if a retailer of prepared food gives food to its patrons or employees free of charge, the retailer is deemed to have sold the items given away for sales tax purposes. Likewise, if a retailer gives away an item of inventory – on the condition that the customer must purchase another item of inventory – for sales tax purposes, the item given away is treated as sold along with the item that is actually sold. G.S. 105-164.12C provides: "In all other cases, property given away or used by any retailer or wholesale merchant is not considered sold, whether or not the retailer or wholesale merchant recovers its cost of the property from sales of other property."VII. Clarifying Changes to the Sales and Use Tax Exceptions for Installation Charges. | Senate Bill 826 (Session Law 2012-79) made clarifying changes to the sales and use tax exemptions under G.S. 105-164.13 with respect to installation charges that are separately stated on an invoice or on a similar billing document. Under former law, installation charges were exempt from sales tax if they were "separately stated on the invoice at the time of sale." Now, under revised G.S. 105-164.13(49), installation charges will also be exempt from sales tax if they are "separately stated on an invoice or similar billing document given to the purchaser at the time of sale."PART THREE | CORPORATE INCOME TAX DEVELOPMENTSVIII. NCDOR Must Issue "Forced Combination" Rules Under G.S. 105-130.5A Before It May Adjust Net Income or Force Filing of Combined Return. | Taxpayers have long argued that the NCDOR has provided virtually no guidance on how it interprets the combined reporting statutes. The NCDOR has now been ordered to adopt rules regarding its interpretation of new "combined reporting statute" G.S. 105-130.5A, which was enacted in 2011. Under new G.S. 105-262.1, the NCDOR may not redetermine North Carolina taxable income or require a combined return until it adopts new rules interpreting new G.S. 105-130.5A. SB 824 (Session Law 2012-43), June 14, 2012.IX. North Carolina Issues Notice Regarding the Calculation of a Current Year Net Economic Loss. | On Aug. 17, 2012, the Department of Revenue issued a Notice regarding its interpretation of the net economic loss statute. G.S. 105-130.8 allows a deduction to a corporation that has sustained a net economic loss ("NEL") in any of the preceding fifteen years. Pursuant to the Notice the NCDOR has determined that certain items that are not taxable under G.S. 105-130.5 (such as foreign dividends and U.S. Government interest) should not reduce a loss in the year in which the loss is created. However, for future loss carryforward years, the NEL carryforward is offset by nontaxable income recognized in the carryforward year. PART FOUR | TAX COLLECTION PROCEDUREX. Governor Perdue's Executive Order Establishes Task Force on Fighting Employee Misclassification. | 1. Introduction: On Aug. 22, 2012, Governor Perdue signed an Executive Order (No. 125) to create a new task force to combat employee misclassification. According to the Executive Order, the Governor's office believes many North Carolina businesses are misclassifying true employees as independent contractors to avoid compliance with health, safety and licensing requirements, as well as to avoid paying income and payroll taxes on employee wages. 2. Members of the New Task Force: The task force will be comprised of representatives from the following North Carolina agencies: the Industrial Commission, the Department of Revenue, the Department of Public Safety, the Department of Commerce, the Division of Employment Security, and the Commission of Insurance.3. Duties of the New Task Force: The duties of the task force include: (a) identifying sectors of the economy where employee misclassification occurs most; (b) determining regulatory or other changes in state laws that prohibit employee misclassification; (c) identifying ways to increase the filing of complaints by employees against non-compliant employers; (d) formulating new methods for preventing employment misclassification; (e) soliciting the assistance of law enforcement agencies and district attorneys to implement effective procedures for referring appropriate cases for prosecution; and (f) promulgating methods for sharing information among members of the task force.XI. Changes to the North Carolina Innocent Spouse Relief Rules for Understatements of Tax. | Previously, under the innocent spouse relief rules of G.S. 105-152(e), a North Carolina spouse could receive innocent spouse relief for his or her spouse's understatement of tax only if that taxpayer had received similar innocent spouse relief for a federal tax liability. G.S. 105-152(e) has been amended now to provide that a requesting innocent spouse qualifies for innocent spouse relief (for North Carolina tax purposes) if the spouse could qualify for innocent spouse relief under the federal Section 6015 rules, even if the spouse had not actually applied for innocent spouse relief under the federal Section 6015 rules. SB 826 (Session Law 2012-79).XII. North Carolina Can No Longer Use Contingent Fee Based Contractors for Audit or Assessment Purposes. | North Carolina has long contracted with third parties (on a contingency fee basis) for collecting delinquent tax debts. Under new G.S. 105-243.1, the State and all cities and counties are now prohibited from entering into contingent fee based contracts for tax audit or tax assessment purposes. This change is effective as of July 1, 2012, and applies to tax audit and tax assessment contracts entered into after that date. House Bill 462 (Session Law 2012-152).XIII. NCDOR Announces Changes to Its Offer in Compromise Process. | On July 9, 2012, the NCDOR issued a press release announcing changes to its offer in compromise program. North Carolina now will use the IRS expense standards to determine disposable income for purposes of qualification for an OIC. Also, under the new program, the NCDOR will provide a counter-offer when an original OIC offer is denied. In its press release, the NCDOR stated that it believes the simplified and improved OIC process will result in an increase in the number of OICs submitted by taxpayers and accepted by the NCDOR. •Keith A.

Congressional Hearing Sheds Light unto Misguided Enforcement Priorities
March 04, 2009
Washington, DC – Today, the House Committee on Homeland Security is holding a hearing to examine the 287g agreements, the federal/local agreements that allows local police to enforce federal civil immigration law. Recent reports, including a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report released today, have called attention to the program's lack of federal oversight and how the program is being implemented at the local level,. The following is a statement by Ali Noorani, Executive Director of the National Immigration Forum, a non-partisan pro-immigrant advocacy organization in Washington.
The facts are piling up that 287g agreements are expensive to implement, both in terms of dollars and in community trust. As newly released independent and government reports expose, implementation of the 287g agreement by 67 local and state law enforcement agencies has been devoid of appropriate federal oversight, resulting in excessive use of force, civil rights abuses, and costly lawsuits.
Efforts to combine civil immigration and criminal law enforcement distract local police from their duty to protect communities. Rather than following the original intent of the agreement and focusing on dangerous criminals, most jurisdictions with 287(g) agreements waste valuable resources chasing immigrant workers and family members, minor traffic offenders, and others who don't pose a threat to our country.
Look no further than Maricopa County Arizona's Sheriff Joe Arpaio as the prime example of enforcement priorities out of whack; with a stack of 40,000 felony warrants, more than 2,700 civil rights complaints and residents afraid of calling the police to report a crime, he has shamelessly compromised community safety in his search for headlines. In this case, nobody wins—county law enforcement can't do its job, and there is a lack of trust and communication between immigrants and the police.
A thorough review of the program is urgently needed, and decisions must be made regarding how to limit or end this program. Without a true commitment from Congress and the new Administration to reform our immigration system, patchwork enforcement schemes will continue and continue to miss the mark. President Obama needs to lead the country forward to a better, safer, more humane immigration system, rather than continuing to rely upon the failed policies of the past Administration to shore up our broken system.

The Tucson city attorney, Mike Rankin, has passed off the investigation into Tucson City Council Member Paul Cunningham to the Office of Equal Opportunity.
Rankin made that decision public in a memo released late this afternoon.
Rankin also says "all written and verbal communications relating to this matter are to be treated as confidential."
"There are more people involved in this investigation than Mr. Cunningham," Tucson Mayor Jonathan Rothschild told News 13.
In an effort to protect all those involved, information will not be released.
"Neither I nor any other City representative may make any further comment on this matter while it is under investigation," Rankin says.,
There are others who believe the investigation should be moved out of the city.
Ward I council member Regina Romero is one of those.
"It's a conflict," she says, "A city office should not investigate an elected city official."
She also questions whether Cunningham can effectively conduct city business with the other council members while the investigation is going on.
"What he did crossed the line," she says.,
But what that line is, is unclear because the city had no code of conduct for elected officials.
The item is up for city discussion June 12.
Some cities, like San Diego, have a code of conduct whereas others, like Albuquerque, do not.
As of today, we have been told no complaint has been filed against Cunningham but an investigation can go forward without one.
That, however, is yet to be determined.
The city council members are scheduled to be given outlines of how the investigation will proceed.,
Cunningham is accused of misconduct during a taxpayer funded trip to San Diego May 16-18.

bought this from sankey magic a while back and loved the practicality of these routines. after performing some of these routines, you will not underestimate the power of using borrowed objects and everyday objects. Personally, i love the slow motion coins, which is taught in great detail and very visual for everday use.
The thing with Sankey. Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 4th, 2010
The thing about Jay Sankey is he doesn't like to create a DVD with a COLLECTION of other peoples good effects... He creates hundreds of his OWN good, impromptu effects. That is what really makes this DVD and anything else by Sankey an incredible value.
This DVD is around 23 dollars... Explained on here are almost 30 effects. You do the math. Plus, ALL of these effects are fantastically good, and most of them are ones that I do from time to time when "asked to see a trick".
This DVD is a GREAT value; don't let this slip by.
Hmmm Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 7th, 2010
I didn't take too much away from watching this DVD. Most of the effects are very basic, and just because a trick is impromptu doesn't mean it can't be strong (just look at Greg Wilson's effects). As always Jay uses a handful of sleights and milks them for all they're worth, so I didn't learn anything new.
To me, this is REAL magic Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 1st, 2013
There are some throw away tricks here....
but you get a ton of tricks!
I love the idea of being able to do something magic, ANYTIME!
I like some gimmicks too, but you need to be able to back up those tricks with some of these.

Planning for Eldercare
Tuesday - August 09, 2011 at 07:52 am
It's no secret that our population is getting older. Today, approximately 13% of the US population is over age 65. That number is expected to jump to about 20% by the year 2030. So it's a pretty safe bet that a lot of us will eventually have to care for an aging loved-one and oour next guest says it's imperative that proper planning up front is better than waiting until you receive that "crisis" phone call.

The Waynesfield Police Department is joining 10,000 other law enforcement agencies from around the nation in support of an intensive crackdown on impaired driving to begin today.
The enforcement period for the effort ŌĆö ŌĆ£Drive Sober or Get Pulled OverŌĆØ ŌĆö extends through Labor Day, Sept. 5. As part of the enforcement, police are vowing to arrest everyone found driving over the legal alcohol limit.
Data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates the number of alcohol-impaired driving fatalities in America fell from 2008 to 2009, but numbers are still too high, said Waynesfield Police Chief Nathan Motter.
In 2009, 10,839 people died in crashes in which a driver or motorcycle rider was at or above the legal limit, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The age group with the highest percentage of alcohol-impaired driving fatalities in motor vehicle traffic crashes was 21- to 24-years-old.
ŌĆ£All too often, innocent, law-abiding people suffer tragic consequences and the loss of loved ones due to this careless disregard for human life,ŌĆØ Motter said.
ŌĆ£Because weŌĆÖre committed to ending the carnage, weŌĆÖre intensifying enforcement during the crackdown,ŌĆØ he said. ŌĆ£Since twice as many alcohol-impaired accidents occur over the weekend and four times as many occur at night, we will be especially vigilant during these high-risk times when impaired drivers are most likely to be on our roads.ŌĆØ
Across the country, it is illegal to drive with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 grams per deciliter or higher, but according to the latest data, nearly a third of fatalities in motor vehicle traffic crashes involve a driver or motorcycle rider with a BAC above the legal limit.
The nationwide drinking and driving crackdown is to include law enforcement officers in every state and many U.S. cities and towns.
Motter said his officers will be aggressively looking for all impaired drivers during the crackdown and will arrest anyone they find driving while impaired ŌĆö regardless of age, vehicle type or time of day.
ŌĆ£Our message is simple and unwavering: if we find you driving impaired, we will arrest you, no exceptions,ŌĆØ Motter said.
ŌĆ£Even if you beat the odds and manage to walk away from an impaired-driving crash alive, the trauma and financial costs of a crash or an arrest for driving while impaired can still destroy your life,ŌĆØ he said.
Motter said violaters often face jail time, loss of their driver licenses or are sentenced to use ignition interlocks. Insurance rates go up and it often means other financial hits as well, including attorney fees, court costs, lost time at work and the potential loss of job or job prospects. When family, friends and coworkers find out, violators also can face tremendous personal embarrassment and humiliation.
ŌĆ£Driving impaired is simply not worth all the consequences, so donŌĆÖt take the chance,ŌĆØ Motter said.
ŌĆ£Remember, drive sober or get pulled over,ŌĆØ he said.

Governor Andrew Cuomo is set to reveal his budget on Tuesday, but one proposal is already creating some buzz.
An anonymous administration official says Cuomo will propose funding for a new police database so that forces around the state can share information more quickly and easily.
The New York State Protection Cloud is set to cost $10 million and the administration estimates it will save $12 million a year once all the jurisdictions join in.
Civil libertarians are already raising concerns, saying that safeguards need to be in place to make sure the system isn't abused.

"There's no way to begin to say goodbye or to say thank you, which is really what I think we all want to say. Thank you to all the fans." (x)
"When Rainn's on the exercise ball bouncing up and down, and I come over and I stab it with the scissors. In every other take we did, I stabbed it and it just slowly goes down. The camera angle was that he just slowly ducked behind the thing and it was incredible. On the last take, they were like 'do one more!' and I remember going over and I went BOOM! And I must have hit the seam or something. It exploded. He hit the ground as hard as I've ever seen a human hit the ground. If you go back and watch that episode, I just dive out because I am crying laughing."
"John and Jenna are truly the younger brother and sister I never had. We've done movies and traveled the world and grown up from young pups to the old, haggard adults you see before you now. But there's a lot of love in that trio."
Some more photos of the cast I took from yesterday at The Office Wrap Party!
Please credit me if you use them! Thanks :)
We are back! The site's been down a little while but we are happy to announce that we're up and running again. Pictures from The Office wrap party are up in the gallery now. It may take us a few days to catch up on everything though, so hang tight. We hope you enjoy.

El Paso, TX (KDBC) — Now free on bond, Daniel Villegas spent his first Sunday as a free man in church on Sunday morning.
Villegas and his family sang hymns and prayed for an hour at St. Pius X Church. He says the statues of the Saints in the church are his inspiration to become a better person.
"That's why I just kept staring up at them and just like "aahh" these guys, they went through hell and back just like I did and they're a testament. And hopefully, I won't be as good as them, but hopefully, I can be a quarter as good as they were," he said.
Villegas also told NewsChannel 9 he has been learning how to use many of today's technology ever since he got out of prison, like emails, texting, and cell phones.
He is currently out on bond but the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has recommended Villegas receive a new trial.
The El Paso District Attorney's Office has not yet decided if they will prosecute Villegas.

'Wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast.' – Ernest Hemingway
After graduating high school, I was lucky enough to backpack Europe for a month with a friend. We hit the big names: Rome, London, Venice, & Paris. Five years later, the nostalgia overtook me & I traveled solo to the City Of Light for some tennis, crepes, & good ole fashioned wandering (I'm a lucky gal). Paris, of course, is absolutely breathtaking. Their public parks boast sculptures worthy of museums; you could spend hours along the Seine taking in the surrounding architecture, music, & aromas. Things one must do if planning a future adventure: learn some French phrases, it's easier/less annoying for all involved! My preferred modus operandi whilst on vacation is not using a map; pick a metro stop, get off, & see where the fates take you.
The line for the Louvre can get rather ridiculous, but you can beat the crowds by arriving a half hour before it opens at 8:30 am. I'd recommend staying until close, that way you can visit every wing, linger on whatever catches your eye, and still have leftover time for a bite at the Café Richelieu terrace!
Save a day to visit the royal Château de Versailles, only about 45 minutes outside of Paris via the metro & SNCF. The main palace that Louis XIV created is not very time consuming; fancy dining rooms & bedrooms are boring. The Hall of Mirrors is a must walk through but surprisingly not very good for selfies. The estate's garden is the real deal, having been twice in my life it still requires the need for me to return. Magnificent fountains inspired by Greek & Roman gods, gorgeous groves, paved walkways, along with the famous crowning achievements of Mansart: The Orangerie & Grand Trianon, are all there for you to feast your senses on. Don't forget to take the tram, bike, or walk to Marie-Antoinette's residence, which she used as a rural pursuit away from court life.
For instant Paris gratification get straight to La Tour Eiffel, Cathédrale Notre Dame, Arc de Triomphe, Tuileries, Jardin du Luxembourg, or take a step outside & look up…
Do what you have to do & get yourself to this slice of heaven on Earth, you'll fall in love with yourself & life.-GEORGETTE BIBBER @gegesdiary

Toxic stress is the heavy hand of early poverty, scripting a child's life not in the Horatio Alger scenario of determination and drive, but in the patterns of disappointment and deprivation that shape a life of limitations.
Poverty as a Childhood Disease, by Perri Klass.
As we saw at this year's schoollibraryjournal Public Library Leadership Think Tank, school and public libraries have a very strong role to play in mitigating the effects of poverty, for both children and their caregivers.

REV AL SHARPTON (28 Dec 2012): In any civilized society you do not see massacres continue to happen, from Tucson to Aurora to Columbine to Virginia Tech to where we are now in Newtown to Chicago and you keep the same laws when clearly they're not working.

text: mobelux The Mobelux Blog: Here at Mobelux we're pretty big Instapaper fans and have been since the beginning. That's why we're very excited to announce Instapaper for Android. This was an interesting design project to work on for me. While I take no credit for the icon shapes or standard navigation concept this was a major design project to tackle. Assets had to be created for both light and dark modes for each of its states (that were different between tablets and phones) and then finely adjusted for three screen resolutions. That means every icon asset could have up to 36 permutations. Then there was the matter of completely custom popovers, trays and standard chrome elements. Needless to say I got pretty good at making sprite sheets. All in all this was an eye-opening project and I can't wait to get to work making it even better. mobelux tech ui android

Games for Lunch: Overlord II
Developer: Triumph Studios
Publisher: Codemasters
Release Date: June 23, 2009
Systems: Xbox 360 (reviewed), PS3, PC
ESRB Rating: T
Official Web site
0:00 I liked the first Overlord game just enough to never play it again after the first hour. Will this one hold up better?
0:01 A quick update download, a longish loading screen and a bunch of logos. The title appears in a flash of electricity as a bunch of little goblin-ish henchman dance to string-heavy sword-and-sorcery music. What sounds like a goblin chorus joins in with some chanting as I reach the menu. Cute.
0:03 Lots more loading before the new game starts. "Once upon a time there was an ending. And we minions searched high and low for a new Overlord. We were like fleas without a dog, maggots without a carcass, pimples without a face. And on Midwinter's eve, in the town of Nordberg, we found a beginning." Impressively decent writing...
0:04 My character is a tiny, misshapen, humanish thing completely ensconced in a thick winter coat. I'm brandishing a club and getting pelted with snowballs thrown by off-screen attackers. After them!
0:05 I knock down my child attackers' snowman defenses with my club and chase them down a snowy lane. The animation is kind of choppy -- I blame the overly detailed world. Everything is rendered with harsh edges and deep textures. A lot of random bits of speech from the kids are overlapping.
0:06 I use my lightning magic (I have lightning magic?!) to light some convenient rockets and destroy a house. Why? Because I'm eeeeevil, that's why.
0:07 Now that I've proven myself to the chattering minions, six of them come out from the shadows and join me. The right trigger sends them out to pester the poor kids or destroy a bunch of empty boxes. I like the animation here ... like watching the Looney Tunes Tasmanian Devil.
0:08 With the minions' help, I chase the kids into a barn. I seem to have lost three goblins in the process. How'd that happen?
0:10 A little girl shows me to the children's secret hideout, chattering all the while in a depressingly lovesick way. "I think I like you." You just met me! Sigh.
0:11 I use the right stick to "sweep" my demons over a bridge, around a wall and into the hideout. This takes me way too long to figure out.
0:13 I'm back to six minions now ... I guess the three I lost got found again? The children said something about running off to "The Hut," but I have no idea where that is.
0:14 I light another rocket to blow up the wall of the snow fort. Why couldn't I do that BEFORE I scared the kids out of the fort? Walking down the lane now, my minions snack on a cute little bunny hopping down the way.
0:15 The demons infiltrate the hut and steal the kids' clothes as a disguise. They sing a cute little gibberish song as we continue towards the big, flashing, yellow arrow on the mini-map.
0:16 With the disguises, the very drunk guard lets us into a big party going on past a big, locked gate. There are people milling around who kind of jump away when we get near.
0:17 I walk around the open-air market stalls, using my minions to destroy stuff pretty much because I can. When the minions find beer in a case, they swig it a down. Fun to watch, but not very productive.
0:20 I ignite yet another rocket to light a Christmas-like tree on fire. I get 10 Gamerscore points for "causing mayhem at the Midwinter party." Suddenly, cannonballs start flying in from all sides. The lovesick girl from before leads me down a path. The partiers are running around screaming now. "I''m too pretty to die." The writing has gone downhill fast.
0:22 In the past two minutes, the little girl has said "Hey, let's take a look" roughly a million times while leading me to this ridge.
0:23 "Bring out your magic users, Nordberg, so they may be cleansed," say the invading Sentinels. The village elder swears we don't have any magic users; then he sees me standing there. "Well, maybe we do have one..." He throws me down to the Sentinels and the game tells me to make a break for the wilderness. There are Centurions in the way, but my minions make short work of them.
0:25 I'm having a bit of trouble controlling my minions. The main problem: The right analog stick is used for camera control as well as minion control. Game doesn't seem to know which one I want at any point.
0:26 "Path block," say the minions. "Our Master would find way to break it." You know, I'm getting a LITTLE tired of hearing about what your master would do. I am your master now, OK?
0:28 I use my minions to take over a Centurion catapult and fire it at an advancing phalanx. The catapult boulder flies with lovingly realistic physics, but it seems unnecessary. Now we're off to Minion Burrows, a fact that causes the minions to throw up a "Yaaaaay!" that sounds like Kermit the Frog.
0:29 I come across a half-dozen wolves in cages, which my minions quickly free and start riding. Sure, why not.
0:30 Man, these minions are ruthless. Anything they come across goes down in an orgy of destruction. Of course, right now that just means a bunch of empty cages are getting destroyed. One of them isn't empty, though ... it has a big brute of a Yeti who joins our party and breaks down a big stone wall.
0:32 As we bound over some ice, the Yeti falls through, sinking down into a icy cavern. I fall with him, getting frozen in a big block of ice. In a cut scene, a minion elder examines my frozen form. "This is the last hope for evil? He's a little short. Fire up the dragon." I'm thawed out and "raised in the bowels of the earth" while, up above, the Glorious Empire comes to power. "Everyone's happy, and those that aren't are killed and tortured." Heh. Before you know it, I'm all grown up and it's time to "Let loose the minions of war. Because evil always finds a way!" Huzzah!
0:33 Oh, wait, I'm still not the Overlord yet. First I must be tested "as the beetle is tested by the dung pile." Huh?
0:34 If these minions say "Follow! Follow!" one more time...
0:36 The Yeti is back, now as "Nature's punching bag," aka a way to test my minion attacking skills. This is one long-ass tutorial...
0:39 I knock over some scaffolding to make a bridge to the ledge where the Yeti jumped. This all feels incredibly scripted and tired.
0:40 A minion sings a song of triumph over the Yeti: "Begone you beast, and make it fast. For if ye don't, will kick your aaaaaaarrrrrr." This last bit is cut short because another minion hits the singer with a snowball. THANK YOU!
0:41 Now I'm gathering "life force" by clubbing some incredibly cute baby seals. Man, they're really hammering home the "evil protagonist" thing. "Die, smelly furball!"
0:43 OK, I'll admit it, clubbing baby seals is fun. No wonder it's illegal.
0:47 Now I'm flattening hunter-filled igloos to stop them from interfering with my seal-thumping. The minions do a good job, but when I get involved directly with my club/magic, things go much faster. The overly detailed smoke from the fire is getting in the way of my view...
0:48 A bunch of enviro-hippy pirates enter. They are "protectors of all creatures and nature" and vow to "protect the fluffy ones." The portrayal is so over the top it's not even funny. I mean, the pirate is wearing a rasta hat.
0:49 "Perhaps all he needs is a hug. All creatures of the mother goddess are beautiful ... especially the cute ones." OK, I know these characters are meant to be annoying, but I don't like games that set out to annoy me...
0:54 Pirates defeated, I stumble on another igloo-filled hunters' camp. The fact that they're reusing set pieces like this so quickly does not fill me with hope for the remainder of the game.
0:56 Apparently I'm working my way back to Nordberg, the "sleepy, snowy little town that was going to hand you over to the Empire!" Oooh!
0:59 A rather confusing boss battle against more hippy pirates commences. The Yeti is on their side, I guess, but my minions take out the wooden supports he's standing on. In the end he jumps on the pirate ship. "This noble beats belongs with us. ... now let us away. Set sail for the sanctuary."
Would I play this game for more than an hour? No.
Why? An interesting concept, but so far it seems more focused on crafting incredible environments and cheesy, bad dialogue than actual interesting gameplay.
This column is based on a retail copy of the game provided by the publisher.

The inspiring story of ballerina Michaela DePrince in her own words
By SADIE WHITELOCKS
An 18-year-old ballerina who was orphaned in war-torn Sierra Leone at the age of three, fulfilled a childhood dream on Wednesday night as she played the lead in Swan Lake at the Lincoln Center.
Michaela DePrince took to the stage at the prestigious New York venue and performed an excerpt from the ballet, which saw her embody the evil Black Swan.
While it marked a milestone in her dance career, the determined teenager told CBS: 'I feel like I've come a long way, but there's so much more that I need to do. [Continue reading.]
