I am so disappointed I won't be in Los Angeles this week for E3. Not because of the show, but because of this Future Crew party — with proceeds benefiting our friends at LA Game Space.
ALL AGES! OPEN TO THE PUBLIC! Proceeds Benefit LA Game Space!
DJ sets by DAEDELUS × CHROME CANYON × ARCANE KIDS × GRIMECRAFT • Performance by DOSEONE • Visuals by Sam Newell × Johnny Woods × Daniel Rehn × Evan Shamoon
Official Screenings of epic demoscene works by The Future Crew!
Playable Videogames from Devolver Digital!
And if you're in Los Angeles right now, hit up the Game Over art exhibition opening at Giant Robot tonight!
LA Game Space Kickstarter backers got a wonderful email last night, with a link to downloads for many of the indie games created for the campaign. They're not all done yet, but what is done is, so far, pretty rad.
I haven't gone through the whole set yet, but Party Time! Hexcellent!'s Electronic Sweet-N-Fun Fortune Teller, Adam Saltsman & Keita Takahashi's ALPHABET, and Steve Swink's Inputting are already worth the time. Those last two, along with Kieran Nolan's Control, make an interesting group, as they all play with the idea of control schemes/keyboards in oddly literal ways.
Don't worry, I'm not just an ass for talking about games you can't get: LA Game Space has opened up a direct donation page, so you can get the game pack without having contributed to the Kickstarter! Well, starting tomorrow, so I guess I'm still an ass for one day.
The LA Game Space continues to trot out some ridiculous rewards for its Kickstarter — along with the 30 games you can get by chipping in just $15, you can get this shirt, a tee from Scott Pilgrim creator Bryan Lee O'Malley, or other designs when you throw in some extra cash.
This shirt comes from stylish apparel shop Meatbun and the good-hearted Nina Matsumoto (yes, of Game Center CX translations fame). LA Game Space is just a few thousand bucks away from hitting its pledge goal, so do your part to fund the project and get this tee!
Fund LA Game Space (four days to go!)
Why you should back LA Game Space's Kickstarter, explained by Maré Odomo's wonderful animated comic.
Look at Tiny's huge muscles! We totally didn't know he'd pop up in this comic — he just showed up on our dashboard, pumping iron and showing off his guns!
And Pushmo's Malo partnering with Katamari Damacy's Prince? Dreams come true in Maré's comics.

Kickstarter pitch for the LA Game Space, a new project proposed by Attract Mode members Adam Robezzoli and Daniel Rehn. The space is intended to host artist residencies for game creators, along with galleries, presentations, workshops, and "game research labs" for live gameplay data.
Even if you're not in LA, there are some pretty compelling reasons to check out the Kickstarter. Rewards start (!) with a pack of 30 experimental/prototype games from well-known indies, including a new collaboration between QWOP developer Bennett Foddy and Adventure Time creator Pendleton Ward; more expensive bonuses include t-shirts, prints, and, at the higher levels, and custom portraits by artists like Army of Trolls, Vic Nguyen, Adam Saltsman, and Paul Robertson!
If you kick in $5,000, you will be made into a character in Runner2. I… can't afford that.

Dreamliner issues affecting United flights at SFO
The ongoing technical issues and grounding of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner are having multiple repercussions for Bay Area Travelers (BATs). In addition to the cancellation of ANA's flights between San Jose and Tokyo (currently through at least May 31), United is having to alter its plans to add new transoceanic nonstops from San Francisco International (SFO) […] [Read More]
United: 2 new international nonstops from SFO
"All of these 767's were originally configured for mainland-Hawaii and hub-to-hub flying. With the reconfiguration currently under way, the airplanes are getting new seats, new (and larger) overhead bins," said Hart. Currently, only Air France offers year-round nonstops between San Francisco and Paris. XL Airways offers summer seasonal flights. Interestingly (and perhaps not coincidentally) just […] [Read More]

Malaysian Man Retires His "Kung Fu" Finger
Ho Eng Hui mesmerizes Malaysian tourists and locals weekly, with his amazing act of breaking through a tough coconut shell, using Kung Fu techniques - except in his case, he uses just his index finger! Now after eight years, Ho and his battered finger are retiring!
To perform his act, Ho would have Kung Fu music playing in the background. He would then focus on the coconut and let out a few cries before jabbing his index finger hard into the coconut with tremendous force until he broke in.
He broke his index finger while performing the act in Singapore. However, he persevered with the help of homemade oils, which he now tries to sell to the audience after his act every week. He even has his name mentioned in the Malaysian Book of Records, for breaking three coconuts in just over one minute.
All this jabbing however, has taken a toll on his finger and it hurts him too much every time he does the act. He therefore decided it was time to retire. The only regret he has, is that his son doesn't want to follow him into this profession.

ATLANTA (Reuters) - Police in Georgia have charged a recent law school graduate with the murder of a fellow graduate whose dismembered body was discovered in a trash bin outside an apartment building where they both lived.
Stephen Mark McDaniel, 25, was charged late Tuesday in Macon with killing 27-year-old Lauren Giddings, police spokeswoman Jami Gaudet told Reuters on Wednesday.
McDaniel and Giddings were recent graduates of the Mercer University School of Law in Macon and lived next door to each other in an apartment building across the street from the school, police said.
Police found Giddings' torso in the apartment building trash bin on June 30. That same day, McDaniel was charged with burglary for allegedly walking into two apartments in the building where he lived and stealing condoms, Gaudet said.
McDaniel had a master key that would open all the units in the building, the police spokeswoman said.
Police have not yet released details about the suspected motive or murder weapon used to kill Giddings.
Gaudet said McDaniel had a collection of swords, but police have not linked the swords to Giddings' death.
"That was a recreational thing for him," she said. "We've never made a connection between the two."
As a law student, McDaniel worked briefly for the Bibb County District Attorney's Office, Gaudet said.

Swiss Grant for Africa - Report for 2004
The Swiss Grant Fund for Africa administered by the Ramsar Secretariat is a generous contribution offered by the Federal Government of Switzerland over and above the annual dues provided to the Convention's core budget. This contribution dates back to 1989 following the establishment of the Secretariat of the Convention in 1988.
The Swiss Grant Fund is extremely useful in financing suitable activities in needy areas of wetlands conservation and wise use. This contribution is also particularly helpful in promoting the Convention in the Africa region.
The Secretariat of the Ramsar Convention wishes to convey to the Swiss government the positive reaction and the appreciation of the African Ramsar Contracting Parties for the precious support from the Swiss voluntary contribution to the implementation of the Ramsar Convention in Africa.
We express our gratitude and our encouragements to the Swiss government for this fruitful contribution that opens up opportunities and promising prospects for the conservation and wise use of wetlands in Africa.
The Swiss Grant of this year is much appreciated as it coincides with the preparation of Ramsar COP9 which is going to take place for the very first time after almost thirty five years in Africa.
We are pleased to submit the following summary report on the approved projects for the year 2004.
It's important to indicate that all the activities sponsored by the 2004 Swiss Grant for Africa are still ongoing.
2004 Proposal Summary
Recipient countries/Institutions
Support to countries for accession to the Ramsar Convention
Awareness on wetlands issues and the work of the Convention
National Parliamentarian Workshop on
Designation of the first Ramsar Sites
Setting up institutional mechanism for the implementation of the Convention
Support to countries for the implementation of Ramsar Convention
Designation of more Ramsar sites
Conservation and wise use of Ramsar sites
Establishment of National
Ramsar Advisory Missions
Cote d'Ivoire
Assessment of the wetlands situation in a post-conflict period and sites designations.
Preparation of Ramsar Africa Regional Preparatory Meeting For Cop9
Professional management of the fund, communication and Coordination of the field work
7 initiatives
To strengthen an
In 2004, seven activities were supported by the voluntary Swiss contribution to Africa. Most of these activities have been initiated in late 2004 and some of them in early 2005 as the funds were only disbursed in November 2004.
Two countries (Cameroon and Cape Verde) were granted a financial support for their accession to the Convention. Burkina Faso and Gabon received a grant to reactivate the implementation of the Ramsar Convention in these two countries. Three countries that have faced a civil war in the previous years have been allocated a grant to assess the state of the wetlands in a post conflict situation Liberia and Cote d'Ivoire.
At the regional level, the Swiss Grant for Africa also accepted to support the preparation of the Africa Regional meeting for COP9. This meeting is scheduled to take place from 4-8 April 2005.
As indicated above, most of these activities has just started and are still ongoing; it is therefore too early to appraise their achievements yet.
1.1. Background and information.
Cameroon is one of the rare countries in Central Africa that has not ratified the convention yet and Cape Verde is the only one in West Africa which is not party to the Convention.
In the case of Cameroon, after some hesitations, it is now clear that there is some political will from the government to ratify the convention.
The Secretariat has therefore requested financial support from the Swiss Grant to Africa to assist Cameroon and Cape Verde in the accession process.
The grant is financing among others the following activities in the two countries:
- Awareness on wetlands issues and the work of the Convention
- National Parliamentarian Workshop on Wetlands
- Designation of the first Ramsar Sites
- Ratification of the Convention
1.2. Achievements:
The contracts with the two governments have been prepared and the funds will be transferred to the relevant Administrate Authorities.
While the contacts with the Government of Cameroon are improving, those with Cape Verde remain a bit slow. However, we have joined hands with Wetlands International (and WWF) to complete the ratification process of Cape Verde. In addition, Cape Verde has been invited as a non-CP to attend the Africa COP9 preparatory meeting.
It is important to indicate that for Cameroon a wetland has already been selected to become the first Ramsar site (Wazaa-Logoon Flood Plains) and will be submitted together with the map that Ramsar and IUCN have prepared to UNESCO when the Government of Cameroon signs the instruments of ratification. In one word, the RIS for the first site and the map are ready. What we are waiting for now is the Government of Cameroon to sign the letter of ratification and send the package to UNESCO. In addition, the new Minister of Environment of Cameroon has submitted us an implementation plan for the activities that will be funded under the SGA support. It is important to note that in order to keep on assisting Contracting Parties in the implementation of Resolution VIII.31 on the Convention's Programme on communication, education and public awareness (CEPA) 2003-2008, the Cameroon project also includes the preparation of radio programs on wetlands issues in the two official languages of the countries.
The process with Cape Verde was far less advanced, but we the country has just submitted an RIS and a map for the designation of the Curral Velho et João Barrosa lagoons as the first Ramsar site. The last step before accession is the signature of the instruments to be sent together with the RIS and the map to UNESCO.
1.3. The way forward:
- Mission to Cape Verde and preparation of a road map that will lead the country to the accession in 2005.
- Mission to Cameroon to assist in the ratification process.
- Implementation of the post-ratification activities in the framework of the Cameroon project
- Implementation of the post-ratification activities in the framework of the Cape Verde project
Allocated budget: CHF 36,000 ( CHF 18,000 for each country)
2.1. Background and information.
Since its accession to the convention on the 30th of April 1987, Gabon had designated 3 sites for a total area 1,080,000 ha. After this, almost nothing has happened in the country as far as the Convention activities are concerned.
Following a correspondence sent to the Ramsar Secretary General to the Government of Gabon, the Minister of Environment has designated a new Administrative Authority which is the Directorate of Environment, to coordinate the Convention implementation in Gabon.
In order to reactivate the Convention implementation, the Head of the new AA has submitted a project to Ramsar Secretariat and proposed to carry out the following activities:
1. Updating the Ramsar Information Sheets of the following sites: Petit Loango, Wongha-Wonghé and Setté Cama.
2. Production of Maps for these sites.
3. Designation of new Ramsar sites.
4. Wetlands inventory in Gabon.
5. Organization of one-day workshop for the Parliamentarians of the environment commission of the Gabon National Assembly.
Burkina Faso is one of the Sahel countries that are struggling for the conservation of their rare wetlands. Although a Ramsar National Committee was yet to be established, Burkina Faso has many experts dedicated to wetland issues, coming from a wide range of institutions, the Ramsar Administrative Authority, including the IUCN office in Ouagadougou, the University of Ouagadougou and 2 sub-regional engineering schools on hydrology and water management (EIR de Ouagadougou, EISTHER de Kambouensé), research centers, the European Union Programme on the "parc du W" wetland protected areas complex, and national NGOs.
As stated above, there was no Ramsar National Committee and this situation did not facilitate the involvement of all relevant institutions in the work of the Convention. There is no policy on wetlands; however the country has now expressed its willingness to undertake a series of action in the near future to reactivate the implementation of the convention.
A new Focal Point for the Ramsar convention has been recently appointed and the new Minister of Environment has made the wetlands management one of his priorities. The request for assistance received from Burkina Faso included the following activities:
- Establishment of a National Wetlands Committee
- Finalization of the National Wetlands Inventory
- Designation of new Ramsar sites.
- Strengthening the Ramsar Focal Point operational capacities
- Etc.
2.1. Achievements:
The contract with the government of Burkina Faso has been prepared, signed and the funds have been transferred to the relevant Administrate Authorities.
In furtherance of Recommendation 5.7 of Ramsar COP5, held June 1993 in Kushiro, Japan, the government of Burkina Faso has just established its Ramsar National Committee, "to provide a focus at national level for implementation of the Convention" in the words of the Recommendation. By the ministerial joint decree no. 2004-25/MECVF/MAHRH/MRA/MESSRS, dated the 16th of September 2004, the Ministries of Environment, Water and Agriculture, Higher Education and Scientific Research, and Animal Resources have nominated the new members of the Ramsar National Committee, which includes researchers, university professors, government organizations, and NGO representatives with different qualifications in the field of wetland management. The creation of the committee, a model of the kind of broad-based cooperative body envisaged by the COP in Recommentation 5.7, is the result of close fruitful consultations between the Ramsar Secretariat and the Ministry of Environment of Burkina Faso.
This must be considered as one of the major achievements of the Burkina Faso project.
The process with Gabon is far less advanced, however the Minister of Environment himself has acknowledged receipt of the grant and promised to initiate the necessary action for the project start off. In addition, the government has decided to transfer the Convention management from Parks and Wildlife to the General Directorate of the Environment which manages the other MEAs. Gabon has already identified the sites to be designated and is currently working on the content of Parliamentarians workshop scheduled to take place in mid-June in Libreville. A series of case studies to illustrate the workshop presentation have already been identified.
The contract with Gabon has already been signed and the funds transferred to Libreville. The project is in its implementation phase.
2.3. The way forward:
- Assist the two countries to speed up the project implementation.
- Continuing support to the Burkina Faso Administrative Authority
- Completion of the two projects before COP9 in Kampala.
Allocated budget: CHF 38,000 (CHF 20,000 for Burkina Faso and 18,000 CHF for Gabon)
3.1. Background and information.
A military conflict always implies human suffering. But what do we know about the environmental consequences of conflict, what risks do they pose to human health and the recovery process and how can the environment be integrated into reconstruction efforts?
Those questions generally apply to the environment but can also be more specific when we refer to wetlands issues in Africa.
The West and Central Africa (Great Lakes) sub-regions have been facing a series of civil wars during the last 10 years. In spite of very difficult conditions countries like Liberia managed to ratify the Convention and Sierra Leone was able to initiate the inventory of its wetlands. Liberia has acceded to the Ramsar Convention in 2002. Liberia presently has one site designated as a Wetland of International Importance, the Lake Piso wetlands, with a surface area of 76 091 hectares. Two additional wetlands of particular importance are the Marshall Wetlands and the Cestos-Senkwehn wetland. Both are being considered for protection status.
Cote d'Ivoire, where the civil war started in 2003, has only one site which has been designated at its accession in 1996, the Parc national d'Azagny with a total surface of 19,400 ha. The country planed to designate a series of 5 sites in 2005. These sites will be presented at COP9 in Kampala. Now that a cease-fire has been signed since July 2004, the whole country is accessible for the Ramsar project activities.
The grants to Liberia and Côte d'Ivoire is serving for the following:
- Identification of new Ramsar sites
- Collect relevant data on the sites
- Preparation of the sites Ramsar Information Sheets (RISs)
- Preparation of the maps showing the boundaries of each designated site
- Preparation of the National Wetlands Policy outline (see guidelines attached)
- Draft report of the Liberia and Cote d'ivoire Civil Wars Impacts on the Wetlands
- Establishing the National Wetlands Committee of Liberia
- Strengthening of the Ramsar focal points' operational capacities. Liberia, which does not yet have a National Wetlands Committee, will establish one
The draft reports on civil wars' impacts on wetlands will include the following:
1. Investigate (direct or indirect) impacts of conflicts on the status of wetlands sites;
2. Identify risks to human and environmental health;
3. Recommend strategic priorities for cleanup and remediation;
4. Promote an environmental agenda and regional environmental cooperation;
5. Catalyze and mobilize international support for wetlands projects;
6. Series of recommendation to integrate wetlands considerations into the recovery and reconstruction process.
All these activities are being carried out through National Wetlands Committees and the Administrative Authorities.
3.2. Achievements:
Both Cote d'Ivoire and Liberia have signed their contracts and the funds have been transferred to the respective. The Ramsar Senior Advisor went on mission to the two countries to assist in the preparation of an implementation plan. The two countries were then able to prepare their plans of implementation with a framework to deliver the project expected results.
In Liberia, four sites are under consideration for addition to the Ramsar list. They include the Mesurado River that is identified as a coastal type of wetland. Its estimated size is unknown and has no conservation status. This river is heavily polluted as a result of its proximity to the city of Monrovia that has high population density. Most people are seeking refuge in Monrovia close to the Mesurado River and are polluting the river by constructing squat latrines over the river as well as dumping waste.
The second site is the Marshall Wetland (Du and Farmington basins) that is an inland riverine. Its size is also unknown but is being proposed as a nature reserve. This site is presently being used as experimental site by the VILAB (Virology Laboratory). VILAB is conducting research on Chimpanzees. The last two sites are the Gbedin and Kpatawe that are both inland swamp and riverine respectively. Their sizes are unknown and have no conservation status yet.
The Gbedin site has a large swamp rice project being supported by the Chinese government. This site is in the northern region of Liberia. The Kpatawe site has a waterfall and swamp portions. The waterfall portion has the potential for hydropower. The Bong County Agricultural Development Project BCADP once used the swamp portion sometime in the early eighties for lowland rice development.
Cote d'Ivoire has already submitted the 5 RISs for the designation of new sites and one RIS to update the data on the Azagny National Park. The Africa Unit has reviewed these documents and sent their comments to the Cote d'Ivoire AA for inclusion in the last version
The two countries have put in place the project implementation teams.
Allocated budget: CHF 36,500
4.1. Background and information.
The 9th Conference of the Contracting Parties to the Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar, Iran, 1971) will take place in Kampala, Uganda, from 8-15 November 2005.
As part of the groundwork relating to this Conference of the Parties, the Standing Committee of the Ramsar Convention has decided that a series of meetings should be held in 2004 and 2005 in the six Ramsar regions (Africa, Asia, Europe, the Neotropics, North America, and Oceania) to review the current implementation of the Convention and prepare for the Conference of the Parties.
Some of the main features of this plan for meetings are:
a. in the case of Africa, Asia and the Neotropics, there should regional meetings, instead of sub-regional meetings for budgetary constraints. Nevertheless, to allow for more in-depth analysis among those Contracting Parties which, due to geographical proximity and other factors have more things in common, there will some sub-regional sessions organized back-to-back with the regional meeting.
b. these will be working meetings hosted by a Contracting Party, with the full assistance of the Ramsar Bureau, but will not constitute "official" meetings of the Convention. Thus, the meetings will make recommendations but not pass "resolutions" as such.
c. Each regional meeting will analyze the major issues and concerns that characterize the expansion of the Convention and its work in the region. There will be opportunities for sharing experience and for discussions of common problems, of the major achievements, and of the needs for future actions.
This meeting will serve as an important opportunity to provide inputs concerning the 9th Conference of the Parties to be held in Kampala, Uganda, 8-15 November 2005. The African Regional Meeting will have the opportunity to review and debate progress with the current Convention Work Plan, National Reports for COP9, the new Ramsar Strategic Plan for the period 2003-2008, the themes of the Technical Session of COP9 and the current work on specific themes by twelve working groups of the Convention's Scientific and Technical Review Panel (STRP).
The Swiss Grant for Africa has accepted to support the preparation of the Africa Regional Preparatory meeting for COP9.
4.2. Achievements:
More than 150 delegates from African countries and representatives from national and international organisations met in Arusha (Tanzania) from 4-8 April 2005, to prepare the African participation at Ramsar's 9th Conference of the Contracting Parties (COP9), to be held in Kampala (Uganda) next November.
During the first morning of the meeting, participants were briefed on the latest developments of the Convention and the preparations for COP9. After a cultural performance of songs and dancing by the school children from the Malagarasi-Muyovozi Ramsar site (Tanzania) and welcoming addresses from local and national authorities, the Ghana representative to Ramsar's Standing Committee, Mr. Yaw Ofori-Frimpong, as well as the Minister for Natural Resources and Tourism, Hon. Zakia Hamdani Meghji (MP), in her speech read on her behalf by the Regional Commissioner for the Arusha region, Mr. Mohamed Babu, stressed the need to raise more funds for the coming COP9 and more generally for the operationalisation of the Convention in Africa. The minister invited the other African countries to join efforts to support Uganda in organising a successful Conference of the Parties. The Secretary General of the Ramsar Convention, Peter Bridgewater, explained the latest developments of the Convention, through the decisions adopted by the Standing Committee some weeks ago, and highlighted the need to work on a clear and realistic budget for the Convention, to be approved at COP9, in order to be able to build upon the work done until now and go forward in implementing the main theme for COP9: Water and wetlands, supporting life, sustaining livelihoods.
Participants also analyzed the problems and challenges they face when implementing the Ramsar Convention in Africa. Again, the lack of resources was highlighted as a major issue for wetland conservation in Africa. The Ramsar Secretariat also asked the participants for their active participation in Convention issues, particularly in the Communication, Education and Public Awareness (CEPA) programme and the National Reports process.
In a special session, several case studies from different countries were presented to focus the discussion on wisely managing wetlands to alleviate poverty and promote human well-being. Again, the major role played by COP9 in raising awareness on this issue and the different initiatives being developed on the African continent were highlighted. The same topic has also been discussed at the basins level with presentations from the Lake Chad Basin Commission, the Nile Basin Initiative, the Congo River Commission, etc.
The meeting was concluded with the adoption of the "Arusha Call for African Wetlands", which identifies the problems of achieving the wise use of wetlands in the region and reaffirms the Africa countries commitment to the Ramsar Convention and the wetlands component of the action plan for the environment initiative of NEPAD, and calls for greater collaboration amongst the Ramsar Secretariat, NEPAD, the International Organization Partners, and development agencies, among a number of other priority points.
The participants have adopted the Arusha Call on Wetlands and agreed to continue the discussions to prepare a strategy for Africa participation to the COP9 meeting in Kampala, Uganda.
4.3. The way forward:
- Produce the final version of the meeting reports
Allocated budget: CHF 35,000

Quick-cooking couscous is now even better since it's available in a whole wheat version. Fresh sage gives this side dish an earthy taste and aroma. You can use other fresh herbs such as basil, cilantro, or mint instead. To make this an entrée, add a little feta cheese, water-packed tuna, or shredded cooked chicken.

Concert review and set list: Santigold delivers totally tubular set at the Pageant, Tuesday, June 12
Santigold is a proud child of the '80s. Her genre-jumping songs are thoroughly modern. Yet they usually carry an '80s element, whether it's the Goth rock of Siouxsie and the Banshees or the electronic new wave of Devo or the punk rock of Bad Brains.
She even sported an '80s look upon entering the stage last night at the Pageant, wearing a bright yellow floral patterned vest and shorts with teal tassels of yarn on the sleeves. Her dancers wore sunglasses and stone-cold expressions that contrasted with their mad dancing skills as the band opened with the hyperactive "Go!," her first single from her new album, "Master of My Make Believe." They even shook pom-poms at one point.
The dancers proved to be quite inspiring as many women I talked to ached to be up there doing the same. This was probably because the moves, while effective, were all quite simple — the kind of moves that would make one say, "Hey, I could do that!"
After "Go!" worked the near-capacity crowd into a tizzy, Santigold and her three backing musicians settled into a trio of hits from her stellar 2008 self-titled debut album. Her dancers air-pounded sledgehammers to a cool effect during "L.E.S Artistes." Seeing Santigold and her dancers move during "Say Aha" brought to mind Jane Fonda circa 1982. Of course, that song would make anyone want to jazzercise.
Costume changes occurred early and often — those costumes and dance moves may not always make a whole lot of sense, but they're usually entertaining.
Her stage set was sparse — just a "Jimmy Fallon Show"-esque curtain in the background. This was the opposite of the last time she was here, where a huge gaudy boom box served as a backdrop and corporate signage for Bacardi was everywhere.
Santigold's sense of humor and playfulness was on display throughout the show, especially when a big, white horsey lumbered onto center stage to dance while the backup dancers cowgirled it up and swung lassos. (Was that I'll Have Another in his second career perhaps?) Santi's humor also could be found at the merch table where she appeared as a businessman (among other costumes) on the cover of her new album.
It was hard to pick exceptional songs the way the crowd's energy level remained sky-high all night. However, songs like "Fame" "Creator" and "Shove It" proved to be especially roof-raising. Santigold's vocal range was put to the test on "Anne." She passed with flying colors.
During the encore, she played her Spank Rock collab song "B.O.O.T.A.Y.," which was cool, though not as crowd-pleasing as when she played the Cure's "Killing an Arab" last time she was here. The crowd was ready for a second encore but it was not to be.
Though it took her until she was in her 30s, everyone at the show last night sure seemed glad Santi White gave up her A&R job to become a full-time rock star. She may never graduate to playing arenas due to her all around mainstream-repelling freakiness. Judging from a lyric from my favorite new Santigold song — "We don't want the fame" — maybe she's totally fine with that.

There are thousands of couples in the United States and elsewhere who will swear by the Shettles Method for gender selection. The Shettles Method is actually a good method for couples to use when the couples want to have a child of a certain gender.
The Shettles Method is named after the man who invented it ?V Dr. Shettles. It requires the couple wanting to conceive a boy or a girl to have sexual intercourse at a certain time during the woman??s cycle ?V well before ovulation for a girl and just before or during ovulation for a boy.
For couples wanting to have a girl, according to the Shettles Method couples should have sexual intercourse anywhere from two to five days before the woman ovulates.
For couples wanting to have a boy, according to the Shettles Method couples should have sexual intercourse either the day before or the day of ovulation.
Once ovulation occurs a woman can only get pregnant for the next twelve to twenty-four hours. That??s why it??s important ?V especially when wanting to conceive a boy ?V that couples know when ovulation is going to occur.
The key to the Shettles Method is knowing when ovulation is going to occur. This can sometimes be tricky, especially if the woman does not have regular cycles (as many women do not).
But there are many ways to tell when ovulation occurs. These methods include keeping track everyday of body temperature (known as Basal Body Temperature), keeping track of how a woman is feeling both emotionally and physically, and keeping track of other signs of what going on with and inside the cervix.
It??s important for a woman to know and be able to predict when she will ovulate in order for the Shettles Method to have any chance of working. BY this is true of pretty much any gender selection method that is used by couples ?V they have to know when ovulation is going to occur.
The Shettles Method is effective and it??s also inexpensive. But it??s not the be-all or end-all of gender selection techniques. There are other techniques that are better because they address more than simply when a couple should have intercourse.
One such method is included in the book How to Conceive the Gender of Your Choice. In this book there are three factors that are addressed. All of these factors affect the gender of a child and they are all thoroughly explained in this book. Furthermore, the reader is told how she can influence each of the factors to dramatically increase the chances of conceiving a child of the gender of choice.
So while the Shettles Method is a very good method for gender selection, it??s not the best method that??s out there. One better way to conceive a child of the gender of your choice is to read the book How to Conceive the Gender of Your Choice.

The season goes from April 1 – June 30 giving you ample time to collect the 6 food recipes and 12 pieces of furniture.

@AnimalCrossing New Leaf US: Do you live around here? #acnl
Just when I think nothing new happens in my game, something new happens to prove me wrong. As I was wandering around yesterday I noticed the area just north of my fountain had…changed a bit. The four bushes and one tree had been flattened and replaced with…a house plot—and an unauthorized house plot at that.
What is that thing behind me??

Why Are So Many Little Kids Up Till All Hours?!
Elizabeth Kuster: I was walking through NYC's Union Square Saturday night at 11 PM. There, amidst dozens of skateboarders and bar-hopping drunks, I spotted lots of little kids (aged, I'd guess, somewhere between 4 and 9). The kids were all hopped up on adrenaline, running around and screaming with glee -- in short, they were just about as far from Sleepy Land (and their beds) as they could get.
Same thing happened on the subway not too long ago, too -- only it was even LATER. I was riding the train home after midnight (on a school night!), and there, in my car, were lots of bright-eyed little kids! They were rough-housing, dancing, playing and arguing while their moms either dozed or chatted with each other, seemingly unconcerned. It was almost 1 AM.
It's not just New York City kids who are up late, either, I've noticed. One of my dear friends lives in the Midwest, and we once agreed that 10 PM was a good time for me to call, "because the kids will be asleep." Only whenever I call around that time, they rarely are! Best-case scenario? They're tucked in for the night and my friend is calming them down by reading them a bedtime story. But often, I can hear the kids running around in the background, even though the entire household has to get up at 6ish. My friend's kids are 2 and 5 years old.
Up until I was 9 years old, I had to be in bed with the light out at 8 PM. My sister, who is three years older, got to stay up one precious hour longer -- of which I was insanely jealous. I distinctly remember being in bed one summer "night" while THE SUN WAS STILL SHINING. A neighbor girl tapped on my bedroom window and taunted me: "Nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah. You're i-in be-ed! I'm sti-ill play-ing!" I felt humiliated for about five minutes, then ... zzzzzzzz. Fact: My sister and I shared a room, but I never heard her come to bed. I was always ZONKED OUT by then.
Don't the parents of sleep-deprived tots realize that kids need a lot more sleep than adults? According to momlogic expert Jill Spivack, MSW, author of The Sleepeasy Solution and cofounder of Sleepy Planet Inc., toddlers aged 3 and under need 10.5 to 12 hours of sleep at night PLUS 1.5 to 3 hours of naptime. Once children give up napping, they need even MORE nighttime sleep. Tweens need about 10 hours a night.
"Children need deep, restorative sleep in order to develop to their peak potential cognitively, emotionally and physically," says Spivack. "Brain development, learning and memory are all supported by good sleep nutrition. Sleep deprivation, on the other hand, results in decreased alertness and coordination. Sleep-deprived kids can have difficulty paying attention, concentrating and are at increased risk for anxiety, depression and mood swings. This will affect them in their play, in social situations, in their ability to tolerate frustration and in their general behavior."
Seems fairly obvious. So why are so many little kids not getting the sleep they need? Is it because their parents are those holier-than-thou types who scoff at people who get proper rest, saying things like, "I only need five hours of sleep" -- like good sleepers are stupid and/or lazy? (Attention, holier-than-thou types: You are deluded. No one can "get by" on five hours of sleep indefinitely. Sooner or later, it will bite you in the ass, health-wise.) Or, is it because the family schedule's so cram-packed there's just never a 12-hour window? Or, is it because one or both parents work, and they'd never see their children at all if the kids spent half the day snoozing?
Whatever the reason, it's the children who suffer -- and they can't do much about it. "Kids don't understand the importance of sleep," notes Spivack. "They need adults to lay down the rules and monitor them."
Moms, do you have a hard time fitting sleep into your kids' schedule? How do you handle it?
Sometimes non-standard due to you for another staggering article. Where else could anybody get that benevolent of intelligence in such a incomparable path of writing.

Last night, my mage character in World of Warcraft completed a milestone. She became a Veteran of the Wrath Gate, which means that she completed a series of quests in Dragonblight leading up to a rather emotional cutscene where erm… Important Things Happen. I really don't want to spoil it for those who have not done it yet, but since this is the second time I was doing the quest (I have already leveled up a Death Knight to 80), it reinforced a vague feeling I had the first time around and I think it needs to be said.
Wrath Gate Cutscene
This particular event is a rather important part of the whole WotLK story arc. The cinematic is well executed and it is just another one of the innovations introduced in the expansion that really enhance the overall player experience. So maybe it's just the fact that I'm a Lord of the Rings geek among other things, but I felt like shouting Pippen-like, "The eagles are coming!" at the exact point where Bolvar Fordragon raises his head to the sky. Substitute Gwaihir the Eagle Lord for Alexstrasza the Dragon Queen – the effect was just as dramatic even if it wasn't original.Which brings me to my point – you don't have to be original to be good. Blizzard never claimed to be original. It's the uninformed fanbois who scream "WoW Clone!" at every other MMO that has been released since 2005 and has even dared to have a similar-looking user interface, accusations that eventually degenerate into a WoW-copied-some-other-game flame war. Despite the fact that WotLK is as original as MMOs go, I really think that anyone will be hard pressed to find something in it that has never been done in any game before. But the fact that the developers have taken all the things we like in all these other games – MMOs and single-player games alike – and put them together in one neat package makes the difference.

Zynga Is Toast Without Real Money Gaming
Jordan is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Zynga's (NASDAQ: ZNGA) change of heart may cost it its life. The company announced that it will no longer seek a real money gaming platform in the United States, choosing to focus on casual games to drive future performance.
So what does this mean for Zynga?
Why Zynga needs real money gaming
I've been a critic of Zynga's plans for real money gaming, but not because it is an unprofitable venture. Rather, I feared that Zynga was making a move that would destroy shareholder value. I proposed that Zynga should "sell" its members to another casino operator to enter gaming with an asset-light business model that would provide instantaneous profitability. Why do all the work necessary to open an online casino when you can ride the coattails of an already established player?
Online casinos pay hundreds of dollars to partners to recruit a single player. Zynga could simply cash in its millions of fake money players to collect upfront payments and royalties on their real money gaming at another online casino. No risk, huge rewards.
Unfortunately, recent statements shed zero light on the strategy Zynga plans to follow. If Zynga intends to work as a partner and refer its members to another casino operator, the company would be a definite buy. Based on my numbers from an earlier article, Zynga is valued at roughly $35 for every fake money poker player.
That's pretty low, especially when one considers that a casino will pay $200 or more for a real money player, and that Zynga has other profitable games that could be left to "run off" and pay millions per year to the company until the cash flows eventually go to zero.
Assuming a 10% conversion and $200 payment per player, Zynga would nearly cover its entire market valuation in a single year and grab very valuable cash it could use to invest to find new, free-money players. Zynga needs to be the "farm team" for existing casinos.
Did Candy Crush lure Zynga back to casual games?
I see little reason for Zynga to spend more to build out its casual gaming business. The company finds little success in this hyper-competitive business where the average customer sticks around for only a few months.
In just the past year, a new studio claimed the title as the number one Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) game publisher. A hit game by competitor King.com, Candy Crush, popped on the scene, and its success is met with an estimated $200 million of annual sales. If nation-wide cable advertising is any indication, Candy Crush is making a mint from players on all platforms.
Zynga only wishes it had a game like Candy Crush in its roster.
In the latest quarter, Zynga reported second quarter revenue of $230.7 million, besting expectations of $183 million. However, higher sales didn't lead to profitability. Once again, Zynga recorded a quarterly loss of $15.8 million in net income.
Bookings, a measure of future quarterly revenue, fell 38% year-over-year to $188 million.
Facebook squeezes Zynga's bottom-line
Facebook may be the biggest threat to Zynga. The social network demands 30% of all spending on games on the platform, which means that each $1 of revenue adds only $.70 to Zynga's top-line. Facebook gets the better end of the business model, earning a royalty on apps it doesn't have to pay for. Zynga wants to ditch the Facebook platform, but doing so is easier said than done. Facebook offers access to more than a billion global users – marketing that is tough to pass up.
Zynga's casual games won't keep the company afloat. It needs real money gaming, and it needs it now.
Quarter over quarter, monthly active users have plummeted to 197 million from 253 million. Every single game Zynga owns is slowly providing less and less to the top-line, as you can see from a chart in the investor relations presentation:
Now is no time to run from real money gaming. Zynga should be heavily investing in its free poker app, Zynga Poker, which maintains leadership in its category. The company needs to continue to drive free players to the app – an asset it can tap for millions of dollars in advertising and royalty revenue when real money gaming comes back to American shores.
Zynga should slash its workforce to a level necessary to maintain its existing non-Poker games and invest every dime it has into collecting as many free money poker players as it can. If real money poker comes back in the U.S., Zynga would be the biggest takeover target on Wall Street for any big casino operator.
I'm astonished by Zynga's cut and run strategy, especially since a new CEO, Don Mattick, took the helm to lead the struggling enterprise. Zynga investors who sent the company's shares up more than 10% on the announcement of his hiring are naturally reflecting their disdain for the company's new direction by sending shares down more than 13%.
Without Poker, Zynga is just another struggling technology company fighting in a much too competitive market where excess profits are difficult to find. Now that Zynga has completely thrown away the idea of real money gaming, investors should throw this stock out of their portfolio, too.

Romantic & stunning! The picture in all white does this dress NO justice! And the bustle makes it even more amazing!!!This was my 6th dress to try on and I only tried it on because my sister picked it out for me to try. When I saw myself in the mirror, I could invision myself at my wedding location! I am getting married at a Historic home with a country chic feel. My dress is the ivory & champagne...the details make the dress so romantic. My mother is a hard one to please and she knew this was it as soon as I did! You MUST see it in person!! I didn't even mark it in the magazine as one I was interested in. March 14, 2011
Timeless! OMG! If you want a wedding dress that looks runway without the runway price, then this is the dress! This was the first dress I tried on and everyone's jaw dropped! Everyone at the bridal shopped said that it was gorgeous on me. I then tried on three more dresses and the people at the briadal shop insisted that I try this dress on again! They loved it and of course, so did my mom and sister! My daddy bought this dress for me along with the head piece I wanted. It's so elegant and classy! This dress is absolutely PERFECT for the look I want to achieve. I love the "vintage" look because it never goes out of style. It's timeless! That's what I wanted and with this dress, it's exactly what I got! I will be having an outdoor wedding on an exclusive golf course, and I know this dress will fit the atmosphere appropriately. I am so elated and can not wait until my groom-to-be sees me! March 13, 2011
Gorgeous gown! I just bought this dress a week ago and I already can't wait to wear it for my wedding in November! I had gone into David's Bridal this past summer, and this was the only dress I wanted to try on...but unfortunately I didn't get a chance to. This past weekend, I had gone in sure that the dress I was going to buy would be a fit and flare mermaid style. But this dress still caught my eye and I finally tried it on. It was absolutely gorgeous...and made me feel beautiful and feminine. I'm getting married at an historical home and I also think it fits the feel of the home. The dress will def. make my wedding perfect!! March 11, 2011
This is My Dress As soon as I walked in the store this dress caught my eye. At the time, the ceremony was going to be held at old mission. The lace and detail would complement the look. The ceremony was changed to an old Baptist church which will still complement the vintage look. It is Fabulous on. The veil and headpiece just made the entire look. I can hardly wait for my loved to see me in it. It is classic and timeless. March 3, 2011

Right pulmonary artery
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|Artery: Right pulmonary artery
Pulmonary vessels, seen in a dorsal view of the heart and lungs. The lungs have been pulled away from the median line, and a part of the right lung has been cut away to display the air-ducts and bloodvessels.
Transverse section of thorax, showing relations of pulmonary artery.
|arteria pulmonalis dextra
|pulmonary artery
The right pulmonary artery or right branch of the pulmonary artery, longer and larger than the left, runs horizontally to the right, behind the ascending aorta and superior vena cava and in front of the right bronchus, to the root of the right lung, where it divides into two branches. The lower and larger of these goes to the middle and lower lobes of the lung; the upper and smaller is distributed to the upper lobe.

leupagus: SO AMAZING AND SO TERRIBLE
leupagus: and so so good for me
gyzym: i feel like though that if i tried to write that fic what would end up coming out would be the story of how the fellowship of the ring happens anyway 60 years later but for different reasons
gyzym: like, by accident
leupagus: I think eeeverybody would be okay with that, bro
gyzym: I CAN'T RESIST THE "SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST MEANT TO SPEND PARTS OF THEIR LIVES TOGETHER OKAY GOD" TROPE
leupagus: WELL I MEAN
leupagus: YEAH
leupagus: CLEARLY
gyzym: the fellowship of somebody find the king of gondor already goddamn don't you know this steward is CRAY
leupagus: THERE IT IS
leupagus: b/c isn't the whole thing about the rangers
leupagus: is that they've been like hiding aragorn or some shit
gyzym: I THINK SO??
leupagus: like only call him up in direst need!
leupagus: and there's no direness rn
leupagus: so the rangers are like HEIR OF ISILDUN WHAT HEIR IDK WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT
gyzym: also it really pleases me to think of aragorn like, joining the hunt-for-the-king-of-gondor brigade in the hope that he'll find a convincing imposter

leupagus: ahahaha
leupagus: YOU'RE A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN
leupagus: because serious bederious, I'd love to write the first part
leupagus: especially since bilbo would start getting - well he'd get ring sickness or whatever, but thorin would probably be the first to notice
leupagus: since it's like what his grandpa got
leupagus: and I bet he'd be like, staying as far from the ring as possible
leupagus: because he's like aragorn in a lot of ways, he knows the weakness in his own blood
gyzym: oh my god yes yes yes YES
leupagus: but like everyone agreeing
leupagus: that bilbo's the only one who can carry it
leupagus: because all the rest of the company know themselves at least that well

Digiday :: Beyond delivering news to its 1,700 newspaper and 5,000 television and radio partners, the AP historically sat at the front of news technology innovation. Whether it was introducing the rotary press to speed up printing, bringing in teletypewriters (a printer connected to a telegraph) or launching the WirePhoto Network (ability to send images over phone lines), the AP offered new ways of information distribution. Now it's confronted with the rise of social media.

Haven't seen you guys at the last few meet-ups. FleaWee OK?
You will never believe it.... My camera was there the whole time but no one picked it up to get any pics. :( I am not sure who else got photos but I hope someone did!!!
Good idea!
I know the two women that own Paws n' Claws. I've held a few events at their store to help them get off the ground when first opening. They would be good to ask too! Let me know how it goes & I will try a few other locations that might be willing. (I got Peet's to make a donation.-1lb of coffee- Woohoo!)
I know you mentioned Paws on Piedmont as one of Flee Wee's Fav's... Do you think they would be willing to make a donation for our Oodles Raffle? Would you be willing to ask? Cheers!
He and Pig were snuggling when I got back from Luka's just now... aw... I think Pig is some special type of cat that just isn't phased by the fluff ball. Looking forward to seeing you and flee and more poodles!

If you are looking for a unique Christmas gift for the Indiana sports fan in your life we have an idea for you.
Be prepared to shell out big bucks.
A 1976 NCAA basketball championship ring is being auctioned off on eBay.
It was given to players and coaches after the Indiana men's basketball team became national champions thirty years ago.
The anonymous seller got the ring through the estate of the late Harold Andreas.
Andreas was one of Bobby Knight's assistant coaches on the '76 Hoosiers team.
Bidding on the ring ends on Sunday but get in quickly because the highest bid is already up to 35 thousand 900 dollars.
