According to a study by the Institute for Higher Education Policy "in the last 10 years, low-income students have increasingly being drawn to proprietary colleges and now attend at four times the rate of other students." The study finds that students "whose total household income is near or below the federal poverty level are likely to be overrepresented at for-profit institutions and underrepresented at public and private nonprofit four-year institutions." As we've documented, many of these subprime schools make up to 90 percent of their revenue from the federal government, yet leave their students crippled with debt and with bleak job prospects. Several of the schools have been charged with using illegal recruiting practices aimed at low-income students.

Kun Huang emigrated from China to Canada in 1998, became a citizen in 2001, and graduated with honors from the University of British Columbia's Sauder School of Business in 2006 with a Bachelor of Commerce degree in finance and accounting.
After graduating, Kun was hired by Vancouver-based Eos Funds Limited to conduct investment research on Chinese companies that were going public in the U.S. From 2006-2009 Eos greatly contributed to the Chinese economy by investing in over 25 Chinese companies, the most notable being a $40 million private equity investment Eos arranged for Southwest China Cement to build cement factories in the earthquake ravaged areas of Sichuan.
Kun specialized in conducting "on-the-ground" investment research that included visits to factories, customers, suppliers, and competitors to get a true picture of a company's financial performance. Often during these visits, Kun found companies were exaggerating their financial performance to attract investment from foreign investors.
By 2009, the practice of inflating earnings became widespread among Chinese companies listed on U.S. and Canadian stock exchanges. Kun's research thus helped save investors hundreds of millions of dollars by alerting the public to the risks of investing in such companies.

I haven't used this long enough to know how well it works, but it apparently has something in it that breaks me out. So I have to say that it isn't worth the money.
This works for me. My pores stay looking normal on my combo big t-zone pore sized skin. This DEFIANTLY helps with any dark spots. If I pop a zit and am not using this product I get a scar. Yes IM 36 and still get a pimple from time to time about monthly. When I am using this cream I can feel confident that there will be no scar. It really amazes me this cream. I am a product junky and am on a perricone kick right now but ALWAYS keep this HNG on hand and use for a solid week after any popped zit etc. Works like a charm. This works better on spots than ANY pricey skin lightener Ive tried. And Ive tried MANY.

I was readig the reviews about Help Me by Philosophy and remembered that it was a tube of this that was my first try at a Philosophy product (I use all Philosophy now). I was in Las Vegas with my boyfriend (husband now) and we were staying at the Venetian Hotel. It was their first year, so we were excited to try their spa. We were there two weeks and got massages, and then I got a facial because they offered one to help with pigmentation. I'm fair and had problems with hormones I guess. One of the products they recommended was Help Me. I have to say that it "helped me" a lot, not only with the dark spots, but also with clogged pores and fine lines around my eyes. I used Retin-A before, but this was just as efective, but without the peeling and redness. That was 2000 and I still have some left and occasionally use it on eye lines if they start looking noticable again. It's a nice treatment and seems safe for practically anyone. It helps with the clogged pores too. The tube I have smells fine yet and still works, but I'll probably buy a new one soon because I don't know how long it's safe/effective to use.

I too bought this product, upon the recommendation of the Philosophy salesperson, for my large pores on and around my nose. Used it consecutively for 2 weeks - the amount of time it was supposed to take to start working - and saw absolutely no improvement. If anything, my pores looked worse! Plus it didn't smell that great. Anyway, I returned it.
From the reviews below, it seems to work very well for issues other than pores. My advice is NOT to buy it if you're hoping to shrink/clean out your pores. It's too expensive for a gamble unless you are able to return it.
NOT impressed at all!! Love all of the Philosophy packaging and flowery sayings and that's the only reason I gave any lippies at all.
I've used several strong retinol products over the years and this remains my favorite. I use it a couple of times a week at night and always wake up to better skin in the morning; my skintone is more even, blotchiness is gone, and blackheads are diminished or gone completely. It's expensive but not anymore so than Green Cream or other high end retinol treatments. The packaging reminds me of a tube or Retin-A and the product lasts for a long time. I've repurchased this twice which says a lot because I'm pretty fickle when it comes to skin care!
I bought this product because i have large pores. I used this product over a month already however it doesn't do anything to my pores. My pore is still large. The price of this product is quite expensive too. I suggested to get a sample first if you really want to try this product.
I hated all philosophy pdts, it made my sensitive skin 100 times worst.
returned the thing to counter...
do not understand why it said recommend by dermatologist!!!
THE best acne treatment I have ever found--and I've been strggling with acne for more than ten years (and have tried many, many harsh AND worthless Rx products). Unfortunately, this stuff is pricey (~$40 for a smallish tube) and insurance doesn't cover it, obviously (although it should :), and I've found that 1.) my skin will stop responding to it after ~3-4 mos. of continuous use, and 2.) very cold, dry weather is even too much for this stuff to combat--although it's better than nothing. The very subtle, slightly sweet scent is nice, too.
I am sooo glad they started making this again! YES! It lasted for about 1 day before it was sold out on SEphora online! This is the ONLY product that takes care of any age spots on my face. OH! N_harrison7
HELP ME is NOTHING like save me. Two completly different products. HG Im dropping all other night time skin care for a while. I will just use a strong day time moisturizer and SPF!

The aestheticians at The Face Place know that different faces have different skincare needs. That?s why they design each of their facials with an audience in mind?they have a smoker?s facial for smokers, an anti-aging facial for adults advanced in years, a teen facial for adolescents, and a European facial for turncoats. Along with facials, the staff offers a full menu of health and beauty services that includes body treatments, waxing services, and makeup applications. And, to round out the mix of wellness services, they have a clinical hypnotherapist who performs hypnosis to help clients conquer phobias, improve self-confidence, or release stress.
Gary Hopkins can divide his mid-20s in two parts: the time before he discovered self-healing, and the time after he discovered self-healing. Before, overwhelming stress and overworking caused him to suffer from anxiety, insomnia, spinal misalignments, and gout. Then, he started meditating, practicing tai chi and energy healing, and taking natural supplements. Not only did these practices help remedy his ailments, but they also led him to a new career as an intuitive healer. Continuing these studies into his 30s, he added such holistic healing methods as Thai massage and reflexology to his regimen.
For more than 10 years, he's shared his knowledge through a private practice and at Light Path Discovery Center. He is dedicated to helping others conquer physical, psychological, and emotional issues with carefully honed skills and several bodywork methods he developed on his own. For those unable to visit him personally, Gary has penned two books— The Master Within and Axiatonal Integration —that guide readers as they attempt to unlock their happiness, which is usually kept in a safe and buried under their childhood home.
Jimi Merk is a bit of a holistic Renaissance man. As a natural-healing practitioner, Jimi demonstrates the benefits of reiki, reflexology, shamanic healing, and yoga, among other things, in his intimate studio space. His hypnosis sessions, which involve aromatherapy, sound therapy, and breathing techniques, help clients overcome personal obstacles in their lives, such as smoking cigarettes. And to keep bodies balanced at home, Jimi forges jewelry flecked with natural healing stones.
For more than 35 years, Dr. Miesse and the staff of Miesse's Herbs have worked to help the community balance mind, body, and spirit. The store is home to a crew of friendly, knowledgeable staffers who lead visitors in the right direction down aisles stocked with herbs and supplements ranging from daily multivitamins to those specifically made to bolster respiratory health.
Daniel, the licensed acupuncturist behind Ohio Wholistic Acupuncture, is spreading the word. Carrying with him the skills he gained while studying in Los Angeles and Seoul, he works to introduce people to the benefits of acupuncture, a healing art he believes can help to heal and prevent pain essentially without any side effects. Using sterilized, single-use needles as fine as a human hair or 1/187th of a pie, Daniel targets acupressure points, which can help to rechannel the body's energy flow and potentially relieve pain, lessen stress, and improve overall health.
Occupational therapist and licensed massage therapist Gwen Jones sees wellness in a different light than most healers, focusing on physical health at the cellular level. She also recognizes the role that emotions play in health. At Take A New Approach Health & Wellness Center, Gwen's unconventional philosophy takes shape in holistic bodywork, including massage and Reiki. She also offers biocommunication, a method of biofeedback that assesses stressors, allergens, and other factors that impact the body negatively in order to create a holistic-health plan that fights them.

Got a question on rule clarification, comments on rule enforcements or some memorable NHL stories? Kerry Fraser wants to answer your emails at email@example.com!
Hi Kerry,
The hit on Mason Raymond has me scratching my head. From my vantage point (a chair in my living room and a PVR with slo-mo), the play was dangerously close to interference, as Raymond never touched the puck. I know that there was the potential of playing it, but both players skated past the puck. The non-call on the interference is somewhat palatable, but the non-call on a hit that was clearly designed to injure another player is unbelievable.
Boychuk must have known that Raymond was in a vulnerable position, yet not only didn't he let up, he gave Raymond a hard shot. Obviously we're unsure of the injury, but that could very easily be a serious neck or back injury.
Is the league likely to consider further discipline even though no penalty was called?
Rick from Alberta
Hey Ref!
I have a question about Mason Raymond's injury. The replays are pretty bad, but when I watch, it seems like at the last minute, Boychuk pushes Raymond into the boards. If Boychuk does push him (if), he takes a player in a vulnerable position, with the puck long gone, and takes advantage of the situation. Just because it isn't a head hit, should the play be reviewed by the NHL? What is the ruling on tangled up players going into the boards?
Hi Kerry, I'm confused over why Boychuk was not penalized for the Raymond hit.
1. He 'can-opened' him forcing him down with his stick between his legs and twisting, and
2. While he had him in the 'can-opener, shoves his head down and drives him into the boards. He had plenty of time to let up. That's not a clean hit 0.3 seconds too late, it's a dirty, dirty and deliberate intent to injure non-hockey play.
Can you please explain the rationale the league would have for this to not discipline Boychuk?
Ross Casey from Victoria, BC
Rick, Kevin & Ross:
I feel sick for Mason Raymond. I shouted a big "Oh No" when I saw him bent over and go tailbone-first into the boards. In that moment, I felt that serious injury could result from the impact with the boards based on Raymond's body position combined with whatever degree of force (minimally or otherwise) was exerted by Johnny Boychuk. This was a minor penalty for interference as a result of the "fork hook" that turned Mason Raymond as he was about to play a puck that was passing by his feet.
We allow a defensive player to step up and make legal contact on an opponent that is about to receive the puck. In this case, the puck was within the acceptable range of Mason Raymond to allow for body contact from Boychuk. The contact Boychuk employed however, involved a reach and tie-up with his stick, which could be called either interference or hooking and worthy of a minor penalty.
This "fork hook" as I would term it, caused Mason Raymond's body to turn off balance (on one skate momentarily) and then lock/tangle up with Boychuk, who had leverage and solid balance on his skates. Their combined momentum (with Boychuk being in a greater position of power/motion) propelled Raymond in a continuation of his backward motion created from the hook and into the boards.
When Mason Raymond was fully turned from the hook and balanced once again on two skates in a bent over position, it appears as though impact with the boards was perhaps five feet away. It doesn't take long to travel that distance. I did not see any evidence that Boychuk drove Raymond with any excessive or significant force other than what might be deemed normal on a finish of a play of this nature.
This is totally different from the play where Zdeno Chara rode Max Pacioretty along the rail and launched the Montreal player upward with his elbow/forearm causing Pacioretty's head to contact the stanchion. The end result of both of these plays was most unfortunately the same fractured vertebrae to both Pacioretty and Raymond. In my judgment, the force exerted and the legality of each play differed immensely.
Boychuk should have received a minor penalty on the play and no suspension should result. I wish Mason Raymond a full and speedy recovery from his injury.

Sauter Jr., scores in Super Late Action at Marshfield
Posted under Race Reports by Chris Budzban on May 18th, 2002
May 18, 2002; Marshfield, WI: – Another cool evening for racing in Central Wisconsin, but the fans and cars were out in full force tonight for the event to contribute to Jason's Heart Transplant.
With two feature wins under his belt already this season, Rory Melbinger was quick timer in the Super Lates. Shawn Stelzer was fast again in the Supers and Al Smith in the Legends. And Rodney Feltz setting the pace in the Cruisers.
Ben Pettis led the start of the Super Late Model feature. Jim Sauter Jr. wasn't far behind and quickly took the lead on lap five. Behind him Pettis, Jeff Weinfurter, Eugene Gregorich Jr. and MG Gajewski all raced door to door. Fast timer Rory Melbinger made his break into the top five on lap nine.
Wayne Breitenfeldt was charging through the field and was also able to gain a few positions on a re-start after lap 11 and took the third spot. Sauter continued to lead, Weinfurter, Breitenfeldt, Gregorich and Gajewski behind him. Melbinger had lost positions on the re-start and worked at moving back to the front. He made his way to fifth, fourth and then third where he would stay. Sauter won, Breitenfeldt second, Melbinger third, Gajewski fourth and Jay VanDerGeest fifth.
In the Super Stock feature, DuWayne Davis led the first six laps, Larry Schultz lap seven and Shawn Stelzer took over the lead on lap eight. Cale Laessig was very fast working his way through the field and challenging Stelzer for the lead when he spun and collected the car of Andy Simonis. Both drivers were okay but unable finish the event. Stelzer won, Tim Hintz second, Gary Wosick third, Larry Schultz fourth and Merle Weinfurter fifth.
Eric Lokemoen held the early lead of the Legends feature, but he was unable to hold off Josh Schoenick who took the lead on lap seven and never looked back. Two time feature winner Al Smith was unable to catch Schoenick either. Schoenick won, Smith second, Curt Gnatzig third, Lokemoen fourth and Dave Keays fifth.
Brendan Klueckman led the whole Cruiser feature until lap ten when his car overheated and he was forced to pit. Josh Elmhorst then inherited the lead and held on for the final four laps. Travis Zvolena finished second, Josh Bell third, Nick Klimpke fourth and Jesse Zopfi fifth.
"Hot Rod" Rodney Feltz not only raced tonight in the Cruiser division, he and his partner Josh Noth were on hand to perform a stunt for the crowd. They placed a Volkswagon Golf (a tiny little car to begin with) on the start finish line. Then each of them in their own full sized eight cylinder cars (boats) drove from opposite ends of the track to crunch this car. The plan was to hit the car at the same time one from the front and one from the back. They were close, but didn't both hit at the same time. The damage however was still done as the car was now shortened by several feet. Rodney will be back for another stunt June 29th.
Next Saturday we are hosting a Truck Pull beginning at 2 p.m. Sunday, is our first ever Wisconsin Challenge Series event. Grandstand gates open at 4 p.m., qualifying at 5 p.m. and racing starts at 6:30. Featuring the WCS Super Late Models in a 75 lap feature event, 4-Cylinders, Motorcycles and a 2-Man Cruiser Championship Race.

Cool! We haven't managed to plant anything this year, but I have set myself the mission of restoring our fruit trees to good health. So far it's looking good and I think we'll get a good crop of apples and pears.

Winter is well under way, though you wouldn't know it here in SoCal where we've experienced an uncanny amont of 70 degree days. No matter, because we'll never be able to go sledding, that is unless of course we drive 2.5 hours north. And if we do, we'll surely be dragging along VW's – yes, the carmaker – latest sled, Crazy Bob.
If you can't tell, the design is inspired from their latest model GTI. Heck, it even says it on the sled itself, so you'd have to be pretty thick to not pick up on that. Then again, if you have a penchant for sledding, then you may have already experienced a fair amount of head trauma, so will let it slide.
Feature wise there is a big red handle and a set of foot rests to help you keep your butt in the seat. VW has also included your very own VW logo and a GTI honeycomb grill, though the latter will do nothing for performance.
If you're interested in picking up Crazy Bob from the German company, expect to pay a few dollars shy of $90. Unfortunately, we can't find an official buy link, so hit the comments if you find one.

War, Peace and Reward

Before Bulbagarden needed a bunker to shield us from the chaos of the rest of the site, there was Fun and Games. It was a quaint little village surrounded by pedantic one liners and amusingly mild games. It was a good break from the chaotic action of the Bulbaverse. But then I noticed another breed of game, one that was fairly more rigid around the edges.
These.. didn't belong in Fun and Games, or did they? Are these roleplaying games? I asked myself.
No, not quite.
But I let them be and cooperated with the users that ran these fascinating mini events. They were short punchy games that involved a closed group of people. I'm always a fan of open games, but little did I realize at the time that these were mafia games. I didn't understand the fuss over groups of users 'killing' each other off nor did I understand why they were closed off. Well that was before I decided to take the opportunity to figure it out.
In the late fall of 2010, @Fwee~ hosted her own mafia, Pokemafia. Mafia was something that only popped up once every 6 months or so, they came and went quietly without so much as a peep from the section. With this new opportunity to take mafia for a spin I figured I may as well give it a shot. I had plenty of time on my hands then and decided to take the plunge into something new.
The game opened - I was granted a role, a persona; my identity. Lo and behold I get the cute and innocent Wigglytuff. Hmm, interesting, am I going to need to roleplay this or something? Boy I was ignorant, no, there's no roleplay. I mean unless you want to, but that's not something that would be to easy to do as a pokemon. Glancing at what I was given, it turns out it was only a cover for my true identity. I was a cold hard killer for the mafia.
With my license to kill, I was granted a team of mobsters. There were 3 of us total, but we had it in for the rest of the town. I didn't know much about what I was doing at the time, but luckily @Pidge was up on his mafia knowledge and knew the drill. I followed his lead, and laid low. The game moved rather slowly, but the intensity of the voting had me enthralled. Intentional deceit is tricky and makes you feel guilty, but it's an absolutely necessary action in performing the duties of a mafioso. Well to get you through some of the game.
Just down the road from Fwee's Pokemafia, a perfect storm was brewing that would transform this section of Bulbagarden from a sleepy hallow into a terrifying beast. Midway through Fwee's Pokemafia @Mijzelffan was just beginning his mafia project, BMGfMafia. Mizzle as we [see @$aturnYoshi] affectionately refer to him, was playing Fwee's game concurrently and let me in on this. I loved the way Mizzle carried Fwee's game, he made it more interesting than the other people participating and I would love to see what he could do with a mafia game in his control.
So in October of 2010, Mizzle turned Bulbagarden into a Mobster's paradise. The game was alien to many, but the allure of discovering roles framed after members of the site was too good to pass up. Everyone was curious to see if they made it in. I was in on that boat too. Everyone wanted a piece of the action.
On the other side of the street, Fwee's game, as is a sad fate of many a mafia game, was loosing business, not to Mizzle's game, but to lack of activity. People were dropping out and she herself was updating less.
So naturally I migrated over to Mizzle's game full time.
Now versed in the mechanics a bit better and ready to hit the ground running, I was pumped at starting this mafia game and playing it right. I opened my role PM and caught a glimpse of a familiar face. Me. To quote @hurristat at a particularly engaging moment, "Oh ho ho." This was awesome.
Now I thought for a second, "Now did Mizzle just give us 'ourselves' or are we supposed to be different people and I just happened to get myself."
It was the latter.
So to start the game, I did something that would have taken anyone off guard. I acted myself. I had the perfect storm in our favor, nearly 90% of the people were new at the game, many people saw me as 'me' instead of the game me, and we organized our mafia team rapidly.
My early mission: to take out the voice of reason, or rather the experienced members of the group which were then Badal and Fwee.
Our first phase was random. In many communities, the first voting phase always seems to happen in waves. Sometimes everyone will be serious and vote for a single person. Another time everyone will decide not to vote. Since this was our first one, nobody knew what to do so we acted all crazy. But we eventually convinced the town that Badal and Fwee sounded pretty crazy and got them lynched early on.
Unfortunately, I love to talk behind the scenes. I was sending PMs to the group every 10 minutes it seemed like. In fact, Mizzle's poor inbox was bursting at the seams and I forgot because of my mod status, he would continue to receive messages regardless if his inbox were full or not.
Whoops >> Sorry about that Mizzle.
He was right to blow up at me the next day, er night. He was alarmed at how much talking a mafia could do during a day phase, and introduced us to Quicktopic for the first time. Apparently our group was defying all standard convention of mafia elsewhere. But since we were all mostly new, we were forging our own path, our own mafia style. Ours was either full force or passive aggressive.
We were cunning. We had master plans. We thought we had this in the bag.
We didn't count on Gible. aka @Hellion.
Our arguments were legendary. Going in, I never guessed I would have to defend myself as hard as I did against this guy. His actions were quiet to start, but he gained confidence behind his stance as we moved along. Behind the scenes I would be constantly speaking with @lizzxxk, @Sarcastically Insane, @Aladar and @Keldora Dragon. Little did I know that all our comments were being fed straight to our rival.
In the first nights in our plans against ousting Badal and Fwee, Hellion was only making small waves and looking for trouble. We thought we could put him on the chopping block soon so we mentioned that. His ability let him see whatever messages we made about him. That little tidbit gave him ammo to use against us in the thread the next day.
Instead I kept cool and played it off the accusations very nonchalantly. Only he and I understood the dance, the less experienced members were still trying to make light of our conversation. We were both armed with an aggressive, but neutral tone, we were natural at it which plays a strong advantage if you're trying to hide a malicious role.
Behind the scenes I was complimenting his through insight and his perceptive thoughts. Hellion certainly was. Yes, he was aided by his role, though the role only gave him parts of dialouge.
It's funny because this fed into a vicious cycle. The more and more Hellion was working to take us down, the more and more we talked about figuring out how to take him out. This meant Mizzle had to spend extra time clipping away our massive PM walls just to give Hellion his info. XD I remember sending pages of detailed plans that must have been a nightmare for Mizzle. I'm really sorry about that, in recent games I've certainly taken up brevity.
In another way, this challenge was almost like facing off against myself. I could only think of Mirror Link in the Water Temple, trading off blow for blow. We were evenly matched and many of our comments were sound, even if by default I was supplying the majority of the BS. It helped to add truthful statements, something Hellion also understands very well.
In those heated moments we developed an intense, but respectful rivalry in our passion for the game. From that moment, I reveled in debates and enjoyed that spirited conversation in deconstructing the opposing side, dissecting their actions and hidden meanings. This is the thrill of mafia.
Hellion played a clever gambit by threatening he would die because he felt confident we were mafia from our now lucid discussion on him. We played into that by keeping him alive on purpose, however, that was his goal all along.
My goal was to turn this into lunacy which succeeded. Fortunately we took him out the next turn and discovered he was none other than Serebii which we thought worked to our advantage.
That was actually quite the twist for myself since this was the first time I encountered an independent role. Since it wasn't town we tried to frame his role as something more negative than it sounded.
But Hellion was good, and our players were finally catching on to what he meant by 'reading our PMs.' By the next phase, we tried to somehow mislead that this info was tainted and this nearly came out to a draw sparing myself, but with the resurgence of Badal a moving force as the new cop in the game, he sniffed us out and got the ball rolling in favor of the town.
Yes, I was knocked out, it was nearly a draw, but to give our team the advantage, I let them vote me. But Badal was also up on his game and got the town to pick us off one by one after we had such a good streak without losing a single member (Hellion was our tipping point). Fortunately Sarcastically Insane convinced the then naive town to turn against the most helpful cop they've had yet. If most people weren't new, it's likely that SI would have lost the game then, but he kept at it and finished it off for a win for all of us.
That was a fun game, and I'll never forget it.
Late that winter, Mizzle launched a sequel to his now super popular BMGf mafia and @Ryuutakeshi and I launched right into our own mafia projects, Falconwing and Warriors. With the games being such a hit, it quickly culminated enough interest to create our own board and thus
the Power Puff Girls were bornthe War Room was born.
And it's been almost a year since Mizzle released the game that quite arguably started it all. Without it, we wouldn't have such a pool of dedicated and talented users.
Mafia games encourage a lot of talents, among them communicative and leadership talents that have actually aided in our decisions for mod candidates. The team building, strategizing and decision making processes churn within the game and it's easy to recognize who carries the talent and who falls to the wayside.
We realize there are talents of all sizes and we can't be everywhere at once. That's why we want to open the floor to everyone and have you all take the opportunity to recognize who you think deserve recognition for their in game services.
Mafia can be a hard game, and it certainly requires deep thought, perseverance and dedication. We want to recognize these talents for all.
On behalf of the War Room Staff
and Ryuu, who put a lot of effort into starting this, and Hellion who put a lot of effort into finishing.
This week we welcome you to the first War Room Awards.

Im a guy who likes anime and games and shizz. My favorite anime are: Attack on Titan (SnK), Watamote, World only God Knows, Baka and Test and Sword Art Online. Also I am #PCMASTERRACE!
Jesus I'm dying here, found this on reddit, then the top rated comment: "This image really makes me happy inside. These children are enjoying playing with a man who has made us all smile like that. This man, who many of us have never met, has been such such a massive part of my life so far and in the lives of all of us. I've been lost in his worlds and taken away by their majesty. His characters have been like family, people who I would recognise on the street, people who I have cried with and laughed alongside as we traveled together through mystical lands.
I think he's smiling because inside all he wants to do is give every kid the chance to be happy like that, happy like he made me so many times growing up." - http://www.reddit.com/r/wiiu/comments/27zxik/the_best_picture_from_e3/ci62jbs
Can I just take a moment to explain why I love Nintendo, both at E3 and in general? I mean, no - the E3 conference may have started at a high note but it kind of ended on a whimper by the end.
But you know what? I don't care.
Look at these three men. They are the three geniuses behind the company. A man who treats a plush toy with love and laughter in front of millions of viewers. A man genuinely shocked and amazed when his face is transformed as part of a game. A man caught contemplating the significance of bananas in the middle of a serious presentation.
Every other company comes onto the stages trying to be as professional as possible. They see their customers, their players, as mature adults and want to keep up the face of being so as well, producing prerecorded videos of obviously overexcited actors…. - but in the process, while they talk about how excited they are about something, there's nothing. Nothing there is genuine.
Nintendo doesn't care. Nintendo goofs off. Nintendo carries ridiculous props onstage and laughs at themselves. Their excitement isn't just stated, it's shown. They are there, having fun, and because of that you know that they genuinely love their games. The things they are selling you are things they love themselves.
They are complete dorks at heart. They still love fun and aren't afraid to show it in front of millions of people.
And that is why I love Nintendo and will always back them - we share that love of fun.
I know it's pretty late to comment, but this is a glorious post and a glorious comment.
With an incredible amount of truth. While there's merit in being professional, nothing sells entertainment like letting your audience know that yes, you genuinely love your product and want to share it with the world.
This is why, even when Nintendo stumbles, and even when they fall flat on their faces, I believe in them to come back swinging and better for the experience.
Reblogging for commentary.
Microsoft and Sony know how to be professional in front of a critical audience.
Nintendo knows how to play.

The US-based press freedom watchdog, the Committee to Protect Journalists is concerned at the prosecution of a Russian journalist who satirised President Putin's campaign to boost the birth rate. Vladimir Rakhmankov, editor-in-chief of a news website, Kursiv, is on trial for insulting the president in an article entitled "Putin as Russia's phallic symbol." Rakhmankovcould be sentenced to a year's "corrective labour." CPJ's executive director, Joel Simon, said: "It is outrageous... [to] bring the full force of the criminal law to bear on a journalist for writing a commentary on the public policy of an elected politician." (Via CPJ.org)

Kordell is going through a nasty divorce with "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Porsha Stewart and after she claimed that he was divorcing her because he has a sexual preference for men, he had to set the record straight. "I promise you on my life in everything that I'm part of, including my son and my father who's no longer here, that that has never happened nor will anything ever come up, ever come up, with no dude about me and nothing," Kordell emphatically told DJ Ryan Cameron.

New year brings new ownership for Echo Publishing
2014 was supposed to be a year of little change for Echo Publishing. After consolidating operations with and moving offices to the Brainerd Dispatch in 2012, combining the Pine River Journal and Lake Country Echo in 2013, and expanding circulation of the Echoland Piper Shopper last week, 2014 stretched ahead with no such major undertakings.

Does it happen to you that things you were thinking of became a part of your daily lives?
Hello everyone. My name is Koral, and I'm really sorry if my English is not accurate (I'm working on it :).
a few years ago I watched an amazing movie that totally changen my life wich called "the secret".
In short, the film deals with the many capabilities inherent in thought and imagination and their power to create a new reality. That is, the fact that things that we imagine, think and believe become to be our reality. I was wondering if anyone heard about this movie, apply the secret and it really worked. Would love to hear stories and experiences. :)

Feb 3 2013: When I am practising at my piano,I close my eyes to fully hear the notes, and so find them by hearing ,not looking.
If I 'hear', in my mind, the note I want to play just fractions of a second before I need to, my fingers will be there faster, sometimes instantly it seems.
Likewise, before I sing a note, especially a more difficult one, if I hear it in my mind first it will arrive in tune, as it needs to sound.
And if I have a colour I need to mix...I imagine how that colour will make me feel first, and then I just find exactly the right mix of pigments, very quickly.
For me, this is what I understand by visualisation . I would never exercise this precious process with more mundane 'wants'. I would prefer to think about a want : 'do I really need this?'

Roku makes its Canadian debut. Is in an 'Apple TV' killer?
New set-top box offers 100 channels, plus Angry Birds on your television.
While it's premature to say the end of cable TV is nigh, there are many new ways to enjoy on-demand media on your television - be it television shows, movies, sporting events, concerts, photo galleries or music.
Sure, many new televisions have built-in wireless connectivity to access all this online content -- but inexpensive boxes that connect to your existing TV can also do the trick (and at a fraction of the price).
You're probably aware of the $109 Apple TV, but there's a new player in Canada for the same price: Roku 2 XS.
Here's a quick look at what it is and how it stacks up against Apple TV.
- New Surface makes the grade for students
- Hot gadgets for your back-to-school kids
- HTC to make One M8 -- Windows edition
- How to make passwords stronger
- Use social media to boost your career prospects
- Futuristic Tim Hortons store concept unveiled
- Microsoft to cut 18,000 jobs over the next year
- Texting while driving common among Ont. teens
- Next-generation codes move past grocery stores
What's a Roku?
Smaller than a deck of cards, Roku is a small black set-top box you attach to your television via HDMI cable (recommended, but not included) or those red, yellow and white composite ("RCA") cables, which are found in the box. You'll also need to connect the Roku to your broadband Internet connection, either wirelessly or via an Ethernet cable plugged into your high-speed modem or router. The unit also ships with a matching black remote.
Once you're connected in one of these two ways, you'll then select what "channels" you'd like to subscribe to. While there are nearly 500 Roku channels in the U.S., the service launches with more than 100 in Canada, which is still a fine start. This includes streaming movies, TV shows and user videos from Netflix, Crackle and Vimeo (including support for top-of-the-line 1080p HD video); live and on-demand sports from the National Hockey League, Major League Baseball, Major League Soccer and Ultimate Fighting Championship; music from Rdio and TuneIn Radio; photos and videos from Facebook and Flickr; and news, weather and other information from the Wall Street Journal and CNBC. Some of the user-made videos are low-quality, however, including a handful of cooking channels with poor audio, but there's a lot to choose from at least.
Most channels are free to use, while some require a subscription, such as Netflix ($8/month) or NHL Vault ($5/month).
Games, USB connectivity
Unlike Apple TV, the Roku 2 XS also offers a few interactive games, such as Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy. In fact, Rovio's mega-popular mobile game Angry Birds is included with the cost of the Roku 2 XS. As with the smartphone and tablet versions, Angry Birds is a physics-based puzzler that challenges you to fling birds out of a slingshot to destroy pigs protected by a fortress. By using the Roku remote to select the right amount of force and direction the birds will fly, you'll attempt to snuff out the swine in as few moves as possible. It's insanely addictive - and looks and plays well on the big-screen.
Something else not found in the Apple TV product is the USB port on the side of the Roku. It allows you to snap in a thumbdrive loaded with music (AAC, MP3 files), videos (MP4/H.264) and photos (JPG, PNG). There's also microSD card slot at the back for additional game and channel storage, if needed.
On the flipside, Apple TV has a few things not found in the Roku 2 XS. For one, Apple TV grants you access to the iTunes store to browse, buy and rent lots of content, as well as dozens of commercial-free streaming radio stations. You can also tap into your PC or Mac somewhere else in your home over Wi-Fi and play all your media in iTunes. Finally, Roku doesn't have a licensing agreement with YouTube, which is a shame, though you can access YouTube on Apple TV.
Each at $109, Roku 2 XS and Apple TV both have their own merits.
On one hand, if you're already comfortable with iTunes and have used your computer to purchase movies, TV shows and music over the years, then Apple TV is a good pick as it lets you enjoy it all in your home theatre -- not to mention it gives you access to rentable TV shows and movies and all the content stored on your computer. Setup is a breeze and the interface is, in a word, elegant.
On the flipside, Roku offers a lot more online content - more than 100 channels to start (except for YouTube) - plus it includes the awesome Angry Birds. The Roku also includes cables to connect to your television, a microSD slot and a USB port to play media you might have stored on your keychain (read: no Internet connection required).
There isn't a clear winner in this battle of the boxes, deciding on which one is right boils down to your individual needs and preferences.

Hi LuluAddict!
I'm about 2 hours from a showroom, can you tell me if the Wren Denim Define is the same colour as the Wren DSP? The jacket looks lighter somehow, but maybe that's just the lighting in the pic.
I wonder if the camo WU's are a different fabrication as well, causing them to be so see thru?
Thanks for your help! :)

I will take a photo of the Wren Denim Define Jacket next to my Wren DSCs and Wren Sill pants tomorrow morning. The camo WUs are the same fabric as the tank. They are pretty thin but I think ok if you don't bend over in them.

These hot and dry days of summer, it is good to have some indicator plants that let you know when some H2O is needed - and few plants do that as effectively as hydrangeas. Once they have been in moisture deficiency for a day or two, they hang their flower heads, a sure-fire indicator you need to get the hoses out.
The popularity of these summer blooming stalwarts has waxed and waned over the years. Once popular here , they fell from grace a little, with a generation of gardeners regarding them as common, but seem to be having a bit of a revival, perhaps spurred by the arrival of new varieties, and the uptake of gardening by a younger generation.
Older gardeners will recall when all gardens had a dollop of hydrangeas, often planted on a south-facing wall. They would provide green foliage throughout the growing season and, as long as they were not butchered too badly at pruning time, would usually furnish a nice display of flowers over the summer. My first garden had such a row of hydrangeas, awaiting my first pruning, then failing to flower for a couple of years as I pruned too hard and injudiciously.
My clearest recollection of those hydrangeas is the role they played in my first attempts of growing plants from cuttings. I took slips from several different rock plants I had in another border, and lined them out in freshly-turned garden soil, using hydrangea trimmings to mark the end of the rows.
The inevitable happened - the only cuttings that struck were the hydrangeas.
All these were the most common form of hydrangea, "mop heads". This slightly disrespectful epithet denotes that the flower heads are entirely composed of sterile flowers, with much larger florets than the fertile flowers. These flowers can look a little heavy and, indeed, can be more than a little weighty, especially after a shower of rain.
The lacecap types, which have a mix of fertile and sterile flowers, probably should be more widely grown as they are as easily grown as mop tops, but easier to mix with other flowers as the flower head is looser, more graceful and more subtle in its effect. Often it is composed of a ring of sterile flowers around a central core of fertile ones.
The common garden hydrangeas as referred to is H. macrophylla and, as I said before, there has been an interesting range of new forms coming on to the market in the past few years.
I have been impressed by the picotee-edged form called "Sensation". This is a vigorous growing mop top with bright green glossy leaves and masses of large flower heads with the coolest flowers of rose-pink edged with white. The new buds are greenish and an opening head has the most amazing combination of colours.
The new You-Me series is even more interesting, with a range of pastel colours in double forms, quite unlike anything grandma grew in her garden. "You-Me Forever" has intriguing balls of double blue blossom while "You-Me Eternity" has the same form but in dark pink. These are fabulous plants and worth seeking out in your garden centre.
If you are interested in lacecaps "Nightingale" is an older variety, but is as nice as any, with light blue sterile flowers around the edge of medium-sized flowers on a robust plant.
Of course, there are many other kinds of hydrangeas, apart from the H. macrophylla types. "Annabelle" is a stunning form of a more unusual species, H. arborescens. As the name suggests this species is larger than the usual species, but nonetheless is an amazing shrub with a bushy but rather untidy habit. It bears large cream flower heads throughout the summer. This is one that will quickly let you know if it is too dry so make sure you keep it well watered and mulched - it would probably do best in light shade.
The American species H. paniculata is most often represented by its cultivar "Grandiflora" in New Zealand. This forms a strong-growing multi-stemmed large shrub which is covered with large panicles, up to 30cm long, of creamy-white flowers in summer. These flowers turn pink with age. The plant is vigorous and needs a little space to be seen at its best, but is a spectacular sight when well grown - it does best in light shade in dry conditions.
In a way, this plant (nicknamed "Pee Gee" in America, after its initials) is the "mop top" version of the species. If you are looking for a lacecap version you should go for "Tardiva" which has the usual mix of fertile and sterile flowers, the sterile flowers being white when young but ageing to pink. With both the varieties, a severe pruning in the spring helps to promote good flowering, as does thinning out crowded stems in late winter.
A real pet for the shaded garden is H. aspersa "Villosa", a willowy shrub that grows perhaps 2.5 metres high and has flattened lacecap blooms, which consist of tiny purplish-blue fertile flowers surrounded by large white or lilac-tinged sterile flowers which bees enjoy visiting. The sterile flowers are carried on little stems and will flutter on a windy day, giving the effect of hundreds of lilac butterflies. One to treasure.

That outdoor hockey game at Wrigley will be awesomePosted on December 12th, 2008 – 2:14 PM
By Michael Rand
The NHL today released an artist's rendering of what the NHL Winter Classic 2009 at Wrigley Field will look like. That game, between the Blackhawks and Red Wings, is on New Year's Day — just a few weeks away. And, um, that looks pretty spectacular. Wethinks something like this needs to happen at the new Twins ballpark, yes? (And thanks to Stensation for passing along the image).

text: Do you wish to roam through the ruins of Tintagel and reflect upon the days of King Arthur? Do you long to see the world that Austen describes so vividly in her novels? Would you like to walk the streets of Charles Dickens' London or visit C.S. Lewis' home and write about the experience? Or you may want to go punting, a favorite Oxford pastime, and glide gently past Oxford's famous Botanic Gardens, through Christ Church College Meadows, where Lewis Carroll taught in the mid-19th century when he wrote the famous Alice Through the Looking Glass (1871) and Alice in Wonderland (1865). Wheaton-in-England provides the opportunity for these unique experiences, and we warmly invite you to consider going on the trip during your time at Wheaton. Wheaton-in-England is designed to allow you to study English literature while being immersed in British culture. It is an eight-week summer program offering eight to ten hours of English credit, and it is led and taught by full-time professors of the Wheaton College English Department. In addition to taking English courses, the program also offers students the opportunity to hear lectures from distinguished British scholars. Although the itinerary varies somewhat from year to year, the schedule includes three elements: one to two weeks of classes on Wheaton's campus prior to embarking for England seven to ten days in London and three to four weeks at St. Anne's College, University of Oxford The group also goes on numerous one-day field trips to various literary sites and on an extended northern excursion, which includes Wordsworth's Lake District. The itinerary includes a southern excursion as well, although the group may substitute it with a visit to Ireland, Scotland, or Wales. No matter what your concentration is within the English Major, Wheaton-in-England is a great opportunity to fulfill major requirements in a setting that not only allows for in-depth study of literary works within their cultural context, but also creates a wonderful community as faculty and students explore literature and the sites together. We also welcome non-majors who desire to fulfill their General Education requirement or those who wish to minor in English. Taking eight to ten hours during the summer gives you much more flexibility during the school year, so think about adding Wheaton-in-England to your schedule. Non-Wheaton students who share Wheaton's Christian commitment are also welcome to participate. Please contact Undergraduate Admissions and the Registrar's office regarding the summer enrollment process and deadlines for non-Wheaton students. Wheaton in England

Live Theatre is committed to developing positive relationships with schools across the North East of England. By working in close partnership with teachers and pupils Live's Education & Participation team aims to create a series of bespoke projects and events that will capture the imaginations of both teachers and pupils. This includes delivering Theatre In Education projects, young writers projects and school residencies in harder to reach communities.
Current projects include:
Live Theatre'sWrite Stuff focuses on developing speaking, listening and literacy skills through a series of practical drama-based workshops that will inspire young people to write. This year we are working with Red House Academy in Sunderland, and previously we have delivered Write Stuff in Excelsior Academy and Benfield School, both in Newcastle.
Phase 1: Sessions in School
Live Theatre carries out seven weekly sessions with a group of approximately 15 to 20 young people (chosen by the school). The sessions include drama and theatre skills, leading into writing and art-based exercises. Everything from imagination, improvisation, character and plot development to the use of conflict within plays and how to structure a play are covered.
All of the participants compile a folder of work that include creative writing, character profiles, artwork, short stories, monologues and dialogue. In session seven the group vote on each others' ideas and six young writers are chosen to attend a further session to prepare for a residency weekend at Live Theatre.
Phase 2: Residency weekend at Live Theatre
The six young writers attend a residency weekend where the young writers work with a dramaturg to write a ten minute play based on what is relevant and important to their lives. By Sunday afternoon the plays are completed and an informal reading with professional actors is held so the writers could hear their work read for the first time.
Phase 3: Editing
After the residency weekend the young writers have the opportunity to edit their scripts. Over seven days the writers are in email contact with their dramaturg to re-work anything they felt needed to be looked at to improve their play.
Phase 4: Rehearsed readings
Once the scripts are complete, the plays are cast and a rehearsed reading takes place at Live Theatre in the spring.
Phase 5: Final Shows
The pupil's final plays are performed as a full production on the main stage at Live Theatre.
Excelsior Academy's final plays I'm Just Saying... were performed as part of Juice Festival in October 2012 and Benfield School's plays were seen in December 2013 in Between the Lines...
"This was a special evening, a sort of artistic epiphany. Rarely has the theatre seemed such a vehicle for ideas as it did tonight. The plays we witnessed were charming, beautiful, funny, relevant and moving, they were all special in different ways, and they were all written by twelve year olds." - The Good Review
"There are so many positives to take from this but the biggest of all has to be the role that Live Theatre and the Juice Festival have played. To be given these facilities, these resources and this opportunity at the age of twelve is amazing. It shatters the illusion that theatre is inaccessible and offers live art to a brand new, young and exciting audience. What a fabulous initiative and what a marvellous, thrilling night at the theatre." - The Good Review
Read The Good Review's full article about I'm Just Saying...
Taking Issue
We are waiting for confirmation of future funding to continue the programme.
To find out more about Live Theatre projects or to discuss educational opportunities in more detail email the Administrator Sam Bell or call her on (0191) 269 3488.

|Ryan Smyth signs with Avalanche
|Written by Admin
|Sunday, 01 July 2007 17:45
Late in a frenzied first day of free-agent signing, Smyth - the last remaining topflight forward left the New York Islanders on Sunday night for a return trip to the Western Conference.
Islanders general manager Garth Snow, who made retaining Smyth his top priority, got the bad news that Smyth was leaving Long Island shortly before 11 p.m. EDT from the forward's agent Don Meehan.
``It was obviously not what we wanted to hear, but I appreciated the call,'' Snow said. ``Don said we were right in it for Ryan's services until the very end and it was one of the hardest decisions he'd ever been a part of.''
The Islanders acquired Smyth from the Edmonton Oilers just minutes before the NHL trade deadline in February. New York gave up two former first-round picks plus this year's No. 1 selection to get him, but couldn't complete the big move by signing him to a long-term contract.
``Ryan decided it was best for him and his family to sign with Colorado,'' Snow said. ``The Avalanche are very fortunate to have him and we wish Ryan and his family the best. I said when I made the trade to acquire Ryan from Edmonton that it's a deal I'd do over and over again.
``My feelings on the move to bring Ryan Smyth to Long Island have not changed,'' he said.

I thought this recipe was definitely missing something.. I've never made a moroccan stew and did not like the fruity flavor from the lime & orange rind with the meat. I think it was a waste on a wonderful cut of lamb. Next time I'll look for a more authentic recipe that focuses more on middle eastern spices.
Moroccan Lamb Stew with Quince Sambal

My family just LOVES this recipe. There are a lot of spices and flavors at work here, and it all adds up to a very delicious stew. We serve it with Naan. I don't take the time to make stewed quinces; I just use some bottled mango chutney instead to make the sambal. We like it with lots of mint. This is a regular family favorite at our house.
