To Tell You How To Choose Between Alliance and Horde side in wow
When you are going to start playing World of Warcraft, you will always feel excited, but then come to a roadblock; cause you cannot decide which faction is better. Here, we will help you out by giving some information on each and even some...
In general the Alliance has double the amount of players than the horde. Yes there are servers where horde is greater in numbers, but those are few and far between. But a lot of then are young kids and maturity may become an issue, but we have not found that too much.
The Horde tend to be more mature players, more organized for pvp (horde always wins pvp for some reason), However due to the low population of horde on a lot of servers end game progression is really only obtainable to a very few guilds, where on the alliance your chances to get into a end game guild is much greater due to the numbers.
As for race and class, you can read about each class and pick one that sounds interesting to you, race doesn't really matter a whole lot, but check out the racial talents from each race and see what one fits the class you want to be.
Let's say you want to play a Warrior, and you want to find a good race for the warrior since Warriors need strength the Orc's racial called Bloody and Fury makes you go into rage and increases your attack power (Strength is converted to attack power), and the orcs also have a axe specialization to give you a bonus when you wield an axe. But the Human is also good for a warrior to since there Racial is Every man for himself which makes you escape from speed altering effects or traps etc. and it could've prevented you from damaging your enemy without that racial. But there a trinkets that people buy from a PVP Vendor that is like the Every Man For Himself that takes a spot in your trinket place since you can only equip 2 trinkets so since you have to equip it you'll only have 1 trinket you can get that has like Strength, Stamina etc. So it's your choice.
After reading this, have you make up your mind to choose the faction of your character? If not, you can take a visit to some professional sites to get some more information. (btw, I want to tell you that http://www.mmocart.com and http://www.wowwowgold.com are helpful)

Handbook of Parenting: Biology and Ecology of Parenting / Edition 1by Marc H. Bornstein
Pub. Date: 01/28/1995
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
Completely revised and expanded from four to five volumes, this new edition of the Handbook of Parenting appears at a time that is momentous in the history of parenting.

Completely revised and expanded from four to five volumes, this new edition of the Handbook of Parenting appears at a time that is momentous in the history of parenting. Parenting and the family are today in a greater state of flux, question, and redefinition than perhaps ever before. We are witnessing the emergence of striking permutations on the theme of parenting: blended families, lesbian and gay parents, and teen versus fifties first-time moms and dads. One cannot but be awed on the biological front by technology that now not only renders postmenopausal women capable of childbearing, but also presents us with the possibility of designing babies. Similarly on the sociological front, single parenthood is a modern day fact of life, adult child dependency is on the rise, and parents are ever less certain of their own roles, even in the face of rising environmental and institutional demands that they take increasing responsibility for their offspring.
The Handbook of Parenting concerns itself with:
*different types of parentsmothers and fathers, single, adolescent, and adoptive parents;
*basic characteristics of parentingbehaviors, knowledge, beliefs, and expectations about parenting;
*forces that shape parentingevolution, genetics, biology, employment, social class, culture, environment, and history;
*problems faced by parentshandicap, marital difficulties, drug addiction; and
*practical concerns of parentinghow to promote children's health, foster social adjustment and cognitive competence, and interact with school, legal, and public officials.
Contributors to the Handbook of Parenting have worked in different ways toward understanding all these diverse aspects of parenting, and all look to the most recent research and thinking in the field to shed light on many topics every parent wonders about.
Each chapter addresses a different but central topic in parenting; each is rooted in current thinking and theory, as well as classical and modern research in that topic; each has been written to be read and absorbed in a single sitting. In addition, each chapter follows a standard organization, including an introduction to the chapter as a whole, followed by historical considerations of the topic, a discussion of central issues and theory, a review of classical and modern research, forecasts of future directions of theory and research, and a set of conclusions. Of course, contributors' own convictions and research are considered, but contributions to this new edition present all major points of view and central lines of inquiry and interpret them broadly.
The Handbook of Parenting is intended to be both comprehensive and state of the art. As the expanded scope of this second edition amply shows, parenting is naturally and closely allied with many other fields.

Good food and fun, bargain prices
Pelon's serves up a good mix of variety, value
I first stumbled into Pelon's on a Wednesday night, lured by the promise of $2 tacos and beers. At those prices, I had assumed the place was a hole in the wall, and was pleasantly surprised by the spacious, pleasant interior.
Having spent my teen summers in Virginia Beach surfing, I also felt instantly at home amid the ocean-themed decor. From the ride-the-waves posters lining the walls and the TV displaying non-stop surfing footage, to the foosball table and enormous spools serving as tables, Pelon's is a delight for beach lovers and surfing fans. Reading the menu is part of the entertainment here, as patrons browse burrito choices that include Rip Tide, The Curl, Hawaiian Pipeline and Big Kahuna. > Read more.

From: Rico, CO
Region: Rocky Mountain
Topic: Invasive Plants
Title: Control of white clover (Trifolium repens)
Answered by: Nan Hampton
QUESTION:our yard was remediated by ARCO in Rico Colorado. they brought in soil that must have been from clover fields. the soil produces tense low growing and fast growing clover with white flowers. it is invasive and is destroying our wildflowers that are natural. how does one get rid of this and allow the wildflwers that are native to flourish? in one year it has taken over large areas that used to be native. thank you. kim
ANSWER:This sounds like Trifolium repens (white clover), a native of Europe. It is considered a weed plant in many parts of North America. However, it's still recommended as a pasture plant in association with grasses, even though it can cause gastric distress in livestock if eaten in large quantities. It has its good points, nevertheless, in that it fixes nitrogen from the atmosphere and enriches the soil for other plants when it dies.
You can read the Clover Management Guidelines from University of California Davis and learn that the best means of controlling it is by hand-pulling or hoeing it. I know this doesn't sound like a lot of fun, but there are no herbicides that will kill only the clover and not your wildflowers. Soil solarization, which is an effective way to kill grasses and other weeds, is apparently not very effective for clover since it doesn't kill seeds as well as the plants—white clover has a hard seed coat that is resistant to high temperatures. Heavy mulching in flower beds can keep the population of clover under control; but if you are dealing with a meadow-like yard, this isn't going to be a practical way to approach the problem. If you add native grasses to your wildflower mix, they can help in outcompeting the clover by growing tall and shading the clover plants. Please read our article, Meadow Gardening, for more information.

I stayed here for the weekend on a business trip. The hotel was close to the city and airport. The breakfast had healthy options which is always a plus for me. The weight/exercise room was average size and had an elliptical, treadmill, and weights. There was a tv in there and everything worked well. The pool/hot tube was extremely relaxing, but crowded. The chlorine amount was high in the room so I couldn't stay longer than an hour. Otherwise, the meeting rooms were great and the staff was extremely helpful. The free cookies were delicious too!

Does she believe that multiple condoms means increased safety against a guy's little swimmers? Was she absent the whole year that they gave those presentations on putting condoms in health class? A single condom is enough. She's not pregnant if you used a condom correctly. She should stop wasting cash on expensive pharmaceuticals, and making you think she's a weirdo.

Another Celebrity Breast-Feeding Controversy (Sigh)
There is no better, safer, and more welcoming place to be a breast-feeding mother than the Internet! All the intelligent people of the world log in for the sole purpose of supporting other women in their choices and praising beautiful depictions of motherhood in action. Nobody has ever been shamed, except for everyone, including but not limited to: Gisele Bündchen, that naked yoga lady, and now, model Ashley Nicole.
In all seriousness, though, it seems that any woman choosing to post a photo of herself breast-feeding on social media must unfortunately be prepared for a certain amount of backlash. Gisele, for example, took heat both because followers found her post to be over-sharing or even vulgar, and also because it was so glamorous it just couldn't possibly be realistic. (Remember her baby suckling away while G. gets attended to by a glam squad?) We're of the mind that any backlash a woman receives for feeding her child ridiculous, but this time it's bringing up a deeper issue.
The Root does an excellent job of unpacking the various factors at work in the case of Nicole, whose Instagram post from last week garnered some of the standard negative reactions. While it's not clear just how much of a "controversy" is really going on here (most of the comments under the photo now are overwhelmingly positive, though it's possible some may have been deleted since media outlets started picking up on the drama), it's nevertheless a good opportunity to take note of why we should be supporting women like Nicole who normalize images such as this one.
As Demetria L. Lucas writes, "black mothers are underrepresented when it comes to breast-feeding. Research finds that just 54 percent of black mothers attempt breast-feeding, while the national average is 73 percent. Experts say that one of the reasons black women fall behind in breast-feeding is that women just don't see women who look like them doing it." Among those experts is Micky Jones of La Leche League, who previously told USA Today that "you don't desire something you don't see." And, "In the black community, you don't see a lot of black women breast-feeding."
While we sincerely hope that Nicole didn't let any of it bother her, it's extremely disheartening to know that people would leave any kind of negative comment on this post, including throwing around words like "ratchet" (in a comment that appears to have since been deleted). But, we are also very much encouraged re: humanity by all the support that flooded Nicole's Instagram since! Don't hesitate to leave some kind words yourself, and definitely check out the full breakdown over on The Root – it's worth a read.

All of these initiatives to try and make money off of their users reaks of desparation. Alot of these seemed to have started this past quarter. I'm curious to see on thier next earnings report how much these initiatives and testing have actually cost them and how they'll affect the bottome line.
Quite possibly the best shorting opportunity I have ever seen. Other sites which have come and gone didn't have the good fortune for traders to actually be publicly traded! Imagine if you could have shorted Friendster or MySpace or a billion other fads and passing fancies that never fooled wall street into buying into an IPO.

This one is the best i hope the next one won't take a long time keep it up man
Glad you likd it. I recently stopped being cheap and got the newest Flash...so if all goes well I'll be able to make it much quicker.
thanks for the review!
wow ur really good at animating and u have a great imagination!! im always wondering whats gonna happen next heheh, and i find myself laughing at everything. i hope to see another one <3333 also, just asking, are u gonna add zelda in it or any other girls?
Thanks for the review, I'm glad to you enjoted the whacky imagination and animations! As for Zelda or any other girls, I don't know any girls willing to do voices for my cartoon, so it's hard to add the ladies in..but we'll see what the future holds!
Overall Funny!
Densel Washington as a spartan? LOL! and don't we all wish we could use the fierce deity mask in Super smash Bros?? I Love how you put secrets in and everything. The violence is a bit mild, but then again its in the description. When it showed a small village again I thought it was going to blow up or something. You put all the Ideas Needed for this to be spoof comedy (but serious at the same time).
Two thumbs up!!
Haha, I'd kill for the Deity mask in Smash bros. The violence I tried to kinda keep tame, supposed to be a zany adventure, not a gore fest (although I do loves me a gore fest). Glad you enjoyed the Flash!
Thanks for the review, too!
Woah, this is out?
I never noticed this came out, only today when I decided to watch the first one again. This was pretty good, however, I was a little disappointed to see that there wasn't too much of a "leap" in improvement from this episode to the first one. Even considering the two years it took to make this. There is improvement, don't get me wrong, but it's much less than I would expect. There was a noticeable improvement in art, though.
The voice acting was okay, I feel that it needed a bit more emotion though. The humor is also much better than the last one, and this episode was much more interesting than the last. The last one got a little boring over time, but this one kept me interested. I also found this one much more humorous. Your type of comedy is definitely pretty damn funny.
One final note, the lip-synching was a bit off track.
I expect and anticipate more from you soon.
Thanks L.L.-Link, I'm glad you enjoyed it. to be honest, Flash 5 has limitations, so hopefully I'll stop being a cheapass and get Adobe's Flash 8 or 9 or whatever it is.
I'm glad you enjoy the Canadian humour, it's definately a hit or miss, but odds are I'll wait for the next-and final-Legend of Zelda to be made in Flash 8.
I'll also buy a new headset too. Unfortunately too much emotion=terrible staticy feedback. But it gives me some time to whip up some good ideas and get everything together. Woah...I think I've gone on long enough...haha thanks for the review!

Make a date with a HyperModel!
Don't just model—create! The folks at DigiTech have developed a genuinely new and bold advance in guitar effects with the unveiling of the ultracool GNX1 Guitar Multi Effects Pedal. Not only does the GNX1 GeNetX Guitar Processor give you a raft of amp and cab models, the real story is that you can take those models and morph them into hybrids that are only limited by your imagination. You can, for example, take a crunchy stack sound then merge it with a sustain-drenched cab model and save it as a completely unique hybrid. In performance, you can toggle between the 2 to create dazzling morphing effects. And this isn't simple fading, you are actually moving between 2 distinct amp/cab models creating an array of incremental sounds along the way. This Digitech device allows you to alter cabinet resonance and size with cabinet tuning to create entirely new amp and cab combos. It's loaded with studio-quality effects with eleven of them available at the same time. You might expect that a feature-laden multi effects pedal like this would require a steep learning curve. But with the GNX1's highly intuitive, user-friendly knob interface and LED display, you'll catch on quick in learning fast pathways to creativity. PC/Mac editor/librarian software is included so you can easily save models to your computer. Get your GNX1 Guitar Effects Pedal and start building a one-of-a-kind roomful of amps and cabs. With the Digitech GNX1, you don't just select and play models. You creatively recombine various portions of models into new "hypermodels." The Processor delivers more creative power than conventional modeling tools. Lets you create new tones as unique as your own DNA. The DigiTech GNX1 features amplifier channel switching, 24-bit converters, adds on studio-quality effects (up to eleven at once), comes loaded with 48 factory presets, a rhythm trainer, built-in expression pedal, and Learn-A-Lick phrase trainer.
- Breaks down amp, cab, and effects models into components that can be recombined in new ways
- Proprietary chip produces unique hybrid amp and cab models
- Amp and cabinet warping
- Create amp and cabinet combinations that you can save and trade online with other users
- Amp channel switching
- 24-bit A/D/A converters
- Eleven simultaneous studio-quality effects: Pickup Simulation, Compressor, Wah, Amp and Acoustic Guitar Models, Three-Band Semi-Parametric EQ, Noise Gate, Auto Swell, Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Triggered Flanger, Triggered Phaser, Tremolo, Pitch Shift, Detune, Whammy, YaYa, Auto Ya, Synth Talk, Envelope Filter, Panner, Rotary Speaker, Analog Delay, Ping Pong Delay, and Reverb
- 48 user and 48 factory presets
- User-friendly knob/matrix interface
- Rhythm trainer
- Built-in expression controller
It's a new age, and this is a new-age guitar processor. Order today.

This thing is great for recording direct. It has a number of excellent presets, including a nice rotary, a great tremolo that you can alter the speed of with the foot pedal, and some quality meat and solo distortions.HOWEVER... if you play it into an amp, it sounds flat and artificial. Really subpar compared to the Boss line of multi-FX pedals.Furthermore, while you can manipulate each preset, the layout of the nobs for doing so is complicated and it takes forever, not like with, say, the Boss ME-50, where you have stombox-sized nobs for everything and can alter them with ease.
I have used only stomp boxes until I bought this pedal. I got this used at a little ma' and pa' guitar shop for 60 bucks. It works great, and I am primarily a drummer, and the guitarist for my band wants to steal it! The only downside I would say, is that I blew my amp with it, playing to loud, but really thats a good thing! This pedal with crank the output! The only real downside is that unlike the rp series to switch effects you must press the little button next to the whammy once to go up so going up quick means pressing it a lot, fast, and to go down you have to hold it down for about 2 seconds which gets annoying. It makes up for its ability to have a bypass so if you have stomps like I do, that problem is cured. For the money, it has too many effects and tweakable things to pass it up. You WILL NOT be disappointed.
I wish I spent my money on something else. Now I've had this "like new" board and don't use it. And I don't use it because it's not up to par with others. There are some cool sounds and features, but only if you use it to record direct. Live it is a total noise machine. I've read and experimented and read some more, but it has massive noise. Regardless of how it is set up. The patches are almost impossible to volume match. It's great playing live, needing to change a patch mid song and have the volume be 40 times louder. I end up going direct to my amp. Even the bypass has massive noise.
Old acoustic player here...trying something new with an Ibanez electric, Kustom Vintage 50-watt tube amp, ...and a GNX1. Confusing pedal to use. My fault I'm sure. Also sure someone used to the infinite settings could do wonders, but for the electric novice? Nah. I usually turn it off and just play straight thru my amp using it's distortion and gain.
I?ve had this pedal for 3 years. It has many excellent presets. For example, Digitech?s whammy pedal costs $200 alone, and you basically get a simplified version of it here as one of 48 presets. So the value is quite good.That said, two major reasons why I no longer use it much:1. The GNX1, I feel, was made for recording straight into your computer. It sounds good when you do that. When you play it through an amp, however, or live, it tends to sound a bit flat compared to, say, Boss pedals. In truth, even recording straight into the computer, the doesn?t quite capture the rich tone of an amplifier.2. It?s annoying as heck to alter the presets. It?s nice that you can alter them and save them but altering the presets on the fly is out of the question. You have to go in and turn the tiny knobs at the top and navigate a small screen and a control panel and while you can do all of this, it takes ages.In the end I realized that if I get used my amp?s built-in distortion and effects, a Boss digi-delay and a chorus pedal, I could do 90% of the things the GNX can do, get much richer tone, and alter the effects much more conveniently and effectively. There are some great things here?killer whammy pedal preset, soaring solo, blissfully good tremolo preset, and a top-notch rotary preset?but if I could do it over again I would have probably gone in a different direction.
The GNX1 is an awesome pedal system. Great effects (specifically the wah, flange, and BassMan settings). The only problem is that you don't get any sound out of it after about a month. All the cables are in correctly but when you play something, nothing comes out of the amp! If anyone knows what it could be, email me. Otherwise, I'll bag my GNX1 and get a regular distortion pedal because that's all I really need.
I have had this thing for four months and I cant believe how many tones you can get from this thing. I run my GeNetX1 thru a Marshall MG15 and my guitar is an Epiphone Les Paul Special II. My favorite tone would be the Fender Bassman model,which is chunky, but theres plenty of high gain, and metal amps to. The amps are great, but I think some of the effects could be more full. I recommend this product for those who are trying to find their own sound. With the Warp fucntion, you can combine two models, and save what you just made and warp it again. The possiblities are endless. This was a great buy and well worth the cash.
I've had the GNX1 for just over a year now. I must say, I used it more when I was using my 25 watt Fender Practice Amplifier. But now that I have a 100w Marshall, I don't want to ruin the Marshall tone and only use the GNX1 on certain occasions. Much cheaper than buying many many stompboxes and pedals. This is worth every penny spent. Though, I wish I would've gotten the GNX3 or 4, simply because I would like to record on it.
Great Pedal with a great variety of quality effects. User Friendly. The best pedal for your money
Completely amazing. Better than any processor I've found. Very easy control and the amp modeling and hypermodeling is an incredible addition. Great effects and great value. I strongly recommend this to any guitar player out there.

You forgot to mention def is actually good now. But not good enough for me to use heavy armor and lose 35% dex... As a ranger/puppeteer, heavy armor is the biggest nope I will ever do.
#77 - applescryatnight (09/20/2013) [-]
hehehe, human peasants.
giants only lose 10%
90% of 0 is still zero though :/
#78 - arrowshock (09/20/2013) [-]
Pfft, rN Heavy mastery = -0% dex. Come at me.
But really, on my Thames set, I only get about 12 more def than my Bohemian set. But that mag boost is nice, and really, OP puppets and Bohemian means I kill most stuff without being hit, so I don't need to tank much lol.
I did a few tests though, at ~70 def, r6 Mana shield > def. Friend hit 45s in a 10% on hp and 25 on mana.
But it takes roughly 100 def to get hardmode enemies to hit 1s on normal attacks.
Anyway, what server are you?
#79 - applescryatnight (09/20/2013) [-]
im on tarlach
thing is, mana shield does overflow damage. that means if you run out of mana, you get massively damaged and wounded .
and it got nerfed a ton too. maybe its cause i have really low ranking mana shield, but me and a couple of my friends lose less health without mana shield on.
#82 - arrowshock (09/20/2013) [-]
I'm also on Tarlach. ign is same as FJ name.
As for the mana shield, I am an ex mage and take less damage on mana than health. I have roughly 800 mana and I think over 75000 worth of pots? There's always trans/demi for the extra mana too.
#63 - applescryatnight (09/19/2013) [-]
yeah, elves are very poor at combat. but on the plus side magic got a huge damage boost, so even my half retarded giant gets 50 magic attack.
#66 - applescryatnight (09/19/2013) [-]
im a warrior/ alchemist/ mage/ fighter/ bard
mabi's all about the multiclassing man
page hunting sucks though, i just happened upon a complete thunder book for 50k and thats the only reason i trained magic.
#68 - applescryatnight (09/19/2013) [-]
did you pay for it, or did you just find it?
cause if you payed for it i have some sad news
not only did the price plummet to only like 200k (on my server, that is), but in the next update all staffs can do that. however, there will be a bit of a boost to the staff so its value doesnt completely go away.
#70 - applescryatnight (09/19/2013) [-]
dont worry, next update there will also probably be magic knuckles. they let you cast all magic (bolts, int magic like ice spear, and upper level magic like meteor)
ive been using bracer knuckles for a while now but if i happen to get the better magic knuckles ill use those. there will be 2 kinds, a free one you get thats pretty bad and a pair of decent ones that will cost an arm and a leg.
and i miss the saint patricks day event every year ; - ;
i play mabi on and off and i just got into it seriously in like june. practically tripled my level since then.
#73 - applescryatnight (09/19/2013) [-]
my level is right around a thousand, give or take 30
i only have 2 r1 fighter skills, charging strike and spinning uppercut. i gave up on fighter when i found out that im pretty good at alchemy.
and last i remembered, the fighter quest was a side quest where you are in a love pentagon with a really nice red head, her tougher blue haired older sister, a famous fighter named cain who doesnt talk, and a blonde girl who has a past in being a bandit.
honestly, i thought it wasnt that bad. the gunner skills, however, didnt even have a story. it was pretty much "talk to a town leader and they will give you these skills"
oh, and im on tarlach.
#75 - applescryatnight (09/19/2013) [-]
you dont know about gunner? you must have been gone a while.
we have guns now. super op if you have the stats for it. if you dont, then they are pretty bad. then again, everything is great when you have the right stats.
in fact, right now there is double gunner training for a couple days. lately there have been a ton of good events. we had 3 double ap weekends in a row, before that there was a month of double life skill exp, combined with a nightmare event, which people used to get to level 90 by doing only that event and nothing else, and another event that gave commerce reforge tools and fine reforges. other than that there is a back to school event going on, where if you log in for 30 non consecutive days you get like 140 ap, a skill reset capsule, a free horse pet, and a 50% skill training item.
#80 - ravertoby (09/20/2013) [-]
If it is based on dex and will then I have the stats. I got almost 300 in those. My str is 200 so I'm working 20 protection, that is the most I've ever had. Usually I have like 6. Never needed to defend when I was faster than everything and could halt attacks.
I have enough pets, I have like 5 pet cards I haven't used ^^; And like 300 ap O.o
I might try to find out how to do gunner and might replace my bow with it if it is good enough.
#81 - applescryatnight (09/20/2013) [-]
its based on a combo of str and int. and even if it was based on dex, 300 would be tiny. i have 400 str and 300 int and i could barely do enough damage.

AbstractOur SBIR goals include 1) assessing architectural alternatives for future interoperability gateways that facilitate component testing, certification, and reuse, and 2) taking initial steps to implement selected alternatives. Historically, interoperability gateways required each link interface to implement translation rules for all other supported links types, yielding an O(N2) maintenance, testing, and certification problem. More recent architectures (e.g. our XML-Defined Gateway) incorporate a neutral data format to remove link interdependencies, so that link interfaces need only support translations between its native format and the neutral format. This allows testing and certifying interface implementations individually, and assembling gateways from pre-certified interface modules: i.e., a toolbox architecture. Although attractive, a neutral format approach has the overlooked problem of generating translation rules between neutral and native formats that are complete and consistent with MIL-STD rules expressed only in native formats. We propose to design automated approaches for: decomposing native-to-native translation rules into native-to-neutral and neutral-to-native translation rules; verifying the original rules are mathematically correct compositions of the decomposed rules; and identifying when translation rules from different rule sets induce inconsistencies. We also propose to extend the engineering cost model developed under our previous SBIR to compare architectural trades and select the best overall approach.

May 11, 2016 - Guess where I amHamuha! Kristopher/Kristo-Ham here!
So, guess where I am right now.
Think about it.... It's where Hamtaro originated.
That's right, Japan! I'm here on a study abroad program my college has. Luckily, my teacher doesn't assign much homework, so I have a lot of free time. So here is everything that I've gotten ready for this update.
5 more subbed episodes in Paradise Hamsubs, including one Haai! episode! These are the rest that Andre subbed that I wasn't able to finish until recently. Numbers are 134, 153, 159, 272, and Haai! episode 21. All of the regular episodes are on MEGA since my OneDrive is full, but the Haai one is on OneDrive since Andre encoded it with the subs (my computer made the video go glitchy for some reason).
Several episodes in the Foreign section, including all Italian episodes from 207 - 241 in a folder link, eps 1-3 in Dutch, episodes 3-5, 10, 11, and 13 in Polish, Movie 2 in Mandarin, and all episodes from 1 - 20 are now available in Latino/Mexican Spanish.
One new set of book scans. These are from the first volume of Hamuchanzu de Gozaimachu that I didn't get uploaded before with the second volume. I also have Vol. 3 of this manga, and another called "Hamtaro's Big Adventure", so when I get back to the US, I'll try to work on getting those scanned for a future update.
I also added several Arabic ads and a collection of rare English promos from Cartoon Network in the Previews and Commercials sections. It includes an ad for the Hamtaro Birthday Special. That should be it for now. Sometime I plan to work on organizing the Foreign section better and creating subsections, but that was too big a project for this update. I'll work on it sometime, though.
OK, Bye~Q!
April 23, 2016 - Long overdue update!Hamuha, Hamuchanzu! Andre here!
We did owe an update for a long time already! Sorry for taking so long, more on that later.
First, let's talk about this update. This one is a 'small' one, since Kristopher will be able to make another one in a few weeks. Or so we hope!
Added Episode 202 subbed by Paradise Hamsubs! This one was quite fun to sub!
We added all missing japanese episodes from the range 1-104 thanks to Kristopher! I understand some of you may not be very interested on them, but keep in mind there are some scenes that were cut from the english dub!
We also added, yet again thanks to Kristopher, the first Hiragana Special on the Movies&OVAs page under 'Other specials'. This one is really cute and I can't wait to sub it!
Lastly, we have three new book scans. The first one is Volume 2 from the japanese Hamtaro manga... It seems Kristopher forgot to upload the first one, so he'll add the first one soon. We also got a postcard book and a sticker book for HamHam Heartbreaker from Patchi, many thanks!
And that's all for the update... If you've been following our tumblr you must have noticed I subbed way more episodes than 202. Those will be added at a later date, most likely by Kristopher's update. I just wanted to point it out because we are both deep down into our college work, so our free time to sub and time&fix respectively are limited.
We've had a very long stretch time without updates, which is a shame, but there's really not much we can do. Even if I sub a lot, Kristopher is the one really helping finding all this amazing stuff and uploading it, so we just have to deal with slow times.
I want to talk about something that may happen in the future and I will probably talk more about on the update if we finally do it. Onedrive, where we're hosting many episodes, it's going to reduce it's quota, so we won't be able to keep the episodes there. A few days ago, I heard rumours that MEGA will be shutting down too, so I started to download every file to make a backup of it, just in case. We still don't know where we're going to put the episodes exactly. We might be using Dropbox; or we might be using a server I buy only for that purpose, or another streaming website. We'll have to see. Just letting you guys know in advance in case someday you can't access the onedrive or MEGA files.
I also want to point out something... Today -well, it's 15 minutes to midnight here lol Almost out of time-, April 23rd, it's known as Saint George's day in my country. Back when we had Cutenews, I already made an update on this date. Because, as you may know, my real name is Jorge... which translated to english, it's George. And by luck or chance, turns out today it's not just a normal day; but a 'holiday'. It's not an actual, official holiday, but Saint George's Day it's known for being the day when the April's Fair starts in my country, which is a very traditional and folklorical fair. It is also the International Day of the Book. Regarding this, there's some legend going on in Spain about Saint George and the dragon. I won't bore you with the details, but you guys should check it out. Some other european friends may know about this story, since it seems that Saint George it's also famous in Germany, Greece, Portugal... and even Mexico!
I really wanted to make a tiny fanfic for today, since it's literature's biggest day; but I didn't had the time not the will lol. Sorry about that.
Anyways, I hope we can make more updates more often! I strongly suggest you to check out Tumblr, since I post many sneak peeks and stuff there.

January 1, 2016 - Happy New Year!Hamha! Kristopher/Kristo-Ham here!
It's about time HHP had another update, huh? And what better time than New Year's!
So without further ado, this time we have 5 new subbed episodes in Paradise Hamsubs! Numbers are 139, 154, 199, 234, and 255. Some of these were originally planned for a Thanksgiving or Christmas update, but there just was too much other stuff that needed to be done in addition to the subs.
Good quality rips of episodes 230 - 237 are now available in Japanese episodes, as well as rips of several more episodes before 105, thanks to my ripping and transferring them from Japanese DVDs and VHS tapes. More of these will come in the next update too. Some other episodes are also restored, but not all of them yet.
All English episodes (not the CN rips) and subbed episodes, OVAs, and movies (but not the Haai! episodes) are restored, and are on OneDrive, thanks to Michael from the Hamtaro wiki, Andre, and me, so now they can be downloaded and watched online.
More Greek episodes, all 4 movies in Arabic (and some episodes), and folders with a few Cantonese and Thai episodes, and more Indonesian Haai! episodes are available in the Foreign section. I also recieved some Dutch episodes recently, but they are connected and I haven't had time to separate them. They should be in the next update, however.
I hope everyone has a happy New Year's Day and look forward to more stuff in the following year! I might even make another small update later this month, mainly to restore more things and possibly add a few more new things.
EDIT: I noticed I called 231 a new subbed episode. My mistake; the new one is actually 234.
November 1, 2015 - Some actual new stuff!Hamha!
This is Kristopher! This was meant to be a Halloween update, but it just wasn't possible with my schedule. Sorry :P
I originally had planned to restore a lot of the stuff that was down, but due to being busy with schoolwork, all the stuff in this update is new media, most of which I've had since summer and would have made an update with sooner, but I had expected the site to be moved like Mimitchi said, and the real update system went down, so... whatever. Anyway, the old stuff WILL be restored, hopefully in a Thanksgiving or Christmas update.
Getting on with it, the new media is:
One new subbed episode for Paradise Hamsubs, episode 162. This is one of three that was planned to be ready for this update, but as I said, my schoolwork got in the way. Also episode 173 subbed is restored, just because it's a Halloween one - I didn't bother with any others yet.
In Japanese episodes, episodes 31, 32, 69 and 70 are available, which I ripped from tapes I found on eBay for a good price. Also episodes 101 - 104 from a fan who wishes to remain anonymous. Also from that same anonymous fan are good quality episodes 189 - 193, 250 - 254 (featuring 251 and 253 with no cutoff), and 2012 re-air episodes 1, 16, 48, and 51. I also fixed some of Nikki's DVD rips from 256 - 296 that had desynchro with the audio and video when I converted them.
In Foreign episodes, all of the Italian episodes from 156 - 206 (and most of 207) are available. These are rips from the Italian channel Frisbee I found, and 207 was recorded by a friend of mine. I've just put a folder link for these and most of the other foreign ones this time since the Foreign section is already very long (I think it'll need subsections eventually), and it would take too long to copy and paste all those links right now. Also available are a folder with several good-quality German episodes, which will be added to eventually, episodes 98 - 104 in French, almost all 75 Portugal Portuguese episodes (they're different from the Brazil dub), eps 1-16 in Norwegian, episode 5 in Greek, and various episodes in Arabic, as well as more Hi! Hamtaro in Indonesian.
That's all for now, I think. Next time I hope to have English episodes and other stuff restored, as well as more subs.
October 8, 2015 - Little update!Hamuha, Hamuchanzu!
This is Andre! Just making a really tiny update here... Site is still getting updated, but Mimitchi has been busy with college so it may take a while.
We're still active on Tumblr, where you can check the episodes we are subbing at the moment!
We know that some links have been taken down on MEGA and we're going on getting that fixed. We hope to get an update made for Halloween, so stay tuned!
Sorry for the long absence and silence guys!
Matta ne~
July 17, 2015 - Undergoing renovations...Hello everyone. Mimitchi speaking!
As you can see, all the old updates disappeared. The updates/comments system was powered by Cutenews, and I was trying to upgrade it to the latest version... and deleted everything by accident. it seems I missed the folder that contained the actual updates when making a backup. So... all the updates written over the years have been lost, as well as the comments. I'm so sorry about this! I don't think it's that big a deal though, it's not like people actually read those old things, right?
Anyway, I'm working on restoring the updates/comments system, but until that's done, no commenting will be available. Please be patient! :)
This is actually part of a larger project. I want to give HHP a big revamp, because there are a lot of incomplete/outdated pages, as well as broken links everywhere. Most of my affiliates are dead, and a new layout is in order for the site's 10th anniversary! I've even bought a new domain, so HHP's URL will soon be hamparadise.net. But this'll take a while. I hope to finish this by the end of the summer, before I go back to UBC. Until then, the rest of the site will work as normal.

About Me
Hey guys! I do not do trade, though I am willing to negotiate. If you express interest in working with me, I will assume it is an offer for paid work.
1-3 Hours | $100-$250
Half-day (4) | $300
Full-day (8) | $500
I primarily shoot nudes. Depending on what else you might want to shoot, I am more than open to negotiate my rate. When you contact me, please do so with your budget, concept, and proposed date/time frame and we can go from there. I'm usually pretty flexible about going over time, within reason. Let me know your preferences in keeping track of when I'm working, if it's a concern for you.
If you'd like to set up a shoot, PM me or give me a call at (202)642-9362. Leave a voicemail if you don't reach me, or better yet -- send me a text (letting me know who you are), since I can be a bit hard to reach via MM sometimes. Friend requests are not an adequate sign that you want to work with me.
What I will do:
-Work with photographers of all skill levels
-Push myself to get you the best possible images
-Abstract, intimate, not-always-pretty subjects
-Androgynous + other gender-bending themes
-Expose myself to varying extreme temperatures
-Every genre listed on my profile
-Anonymous, implied, and general nudes
-My own makeup/styling
-Bring a plethora of wigs if you so choose
-Shoot in exchange for extravagant costumes/lingerie, or airfare
-Travel basically anywhere my U.S. passport can take me
-Get dirty
What I will not do:
-Gynecological spotlights/"spreads" or anything resembling Hustler
-Compromise on my boundaries as expressed prior to shooting
-Disrespect cultural boundaries
-Put my health/safety at risk (via polluted water or not breaking during winter shoots)
-Expose an unwitting audience to my nude body in an illegal area
Current look:
Hair - Shaved
Pubes - Present
(Acne has been a factor for me since I started modeling, and my hormonal breakouts are becoming increasingly rare. The scars will be present until they decide to fade, but are easily covered with makeup.
It should also be known that I do burlesque under the moniker Fox E. Martin. And I'm kind of a chameleon.

text: Howard Dean Shouts Out Complex on The Colbert Report By Complex Mag Share Tweet 0 This morning, The Colbert Report posted this exclusive "viral video" they shot with Howard Dean, who made sure to give a nod to the blogs that matter. Not only did he big up the Complex Media Network, but he gives a special shout to our homies at Nah Right at the end of the video. The former Vermont Governor, DNC Chair and Presidential hopeful may have lost to John Kerry in 2004, but he's still a winner to us. BYAHHH!
