Partitioning Data into Clusters
Cluster analysis is an unsupervised learning technique used for classification of data. Data elements are partitioned into groups called clusters that represent proximate collections of data elements based on a distance or dissimilarity function. Identical element pairs have zero distance or dissimilarity, and all others have positive distance or dissimilarity.
|partition data into lists of similar elements
|partition data into exactly n lists of similar elements
The data argument of FindClusters can be a list of data elements or rules indexing elements and labels.
|data specified as a list of data elements
|data specified as a list of rules between data elements and labels
|data specified as a rule mapping data elements to labels
Ways of specifying data in FindClusters.
The data elements can be numeric lists, matrices, tensors, lists of True and False elements, or lists of strings. All data elements must have the same dimensions.
The rule-based data syntax allows for clustering data elements and returning labels for those elements.
The rule-based data syntax can also be used to cluster data based on parts of each data entry. For instance, you might want to cluster data in a data table while ignoring particular columns in the table.
In principle, it is possible to cluster points given in an arbitrary number of dimensions. However, it is difficult at best to visualize the clusters above two or three dimensions. To compare optional methods in this documentation, an easily visualizable set of two-dimensional data will be used.
With the default settings, FindClusters has found the four clusters of points.
You can also direct FindClusters to find a specific number of clusters.

Options for FindClusters.
Randomness is used in clustering in two different ways. Some of the methods use a random assignment of some points to a specific number of clusters as a starting point. Randomness may also be used to help determine what seems to be the best number of clusters to use. Changing the random seed for generating the randomness by using FindClusters[{e1,e2,…},Method->{Automatic,"RandomSeed"->s}] may lead to different results for some cases.
In principle, clustering techniques can be applied to any set of data. All that is needed is a measure of how far apart each element in the set is from other elements, that is, a function giving the distance between elements.
FindClusters[{e1,e2,…},DistanceFunction->f] treats pairs of elements as being less similar when their distances are larger. The function f can be any appropriate distance or dissimilarity function. A dissimilarity function satisfies the following:
If the are vectors of numbers, FindClusters by default uses a squared Euclidean distance. If the are lists of Boolean True and False (or 0 and 1) elements, FindClusters by default uses a dissimilarity based on the normalized fraction of elements that disagree. If the are strings, FindClusters by default uses a distance function based on the number of point changes needed to get from one string to another.

|squared Euclidean norm
|the Manhattan distance
|the chessboard or Chebyshev distance
|the Canberra distance
|the cosine distance
|the correlation distance 1-(u-Mean[u]).(v-Mean[v])/(Abs[u-Mean[u]]Abs[v-Mean[v]])
|the Bray–Curtis distance
Distance functions for numerical data.
Dissimilarities for Boolean vectors are typically calculated by comparing the elements of two Boolean vectors and pairwise. It is convenient to summarize each dissimilarity function in terms of , where is the number of corresponding pairs of elements in and , respectively, equal to and . The number counts the pairs in , with and being either 0 or 1. If the Boolean values are True and False, True is equivalent to 1 and False is equivalent to 0.
|simple matching (n10+n01)/Length[u]
|the Jaccard dissimilarity
|the Russell–Rao dissimilarity (n10+n01+n00)/Length[u]
|the Sokal–Sneath dissimilarity

|the Dice dissimilarity
|the Yule dissimilarity
Dissimilarity functions for Boolean data.
|the number of edits to transform u into string v
|Damerau–Levenshtein distance between u and v
|the number of elements whose values disagree in u and v
Dissimilarity functions for string data.
The edit distance is determined by counting the number of deletions, insertions, and substitutions required to transform one string into another while preserving the ordering of characters. In contrast, the Damerau–Levenshtein distance counts the number of deletions, insertions, substitutions, and transpositions, while the Hamming distance counts only the number of substitutions.
The Method option can be used to specify different methods of clustering.
Explicit settings for the Method option.
The methods and determine how to cluster the data for a particular number of clusters k. uses an agglomerative hierarchical method starting with each member of the set in a cluster of its own and fusing nearest clusters until there are k remaining. starts by building a set of k representative objects and clustering around those, iterating until a (locally) optimal clustering is found. The default method is based on partitioning around medoids.
Additional Method suboptions are available to allow for more control over the clustering. Available suboptions depend on the Method chosen.
For a given set of data and distance function, the choice of the best number of clusters k may be unclear. With Method->{methodname,"SignificanceTest"->"stest"}, is used to determine statistically significant clusters to help choose an appropriate number. Possible values of are and . The test uses the silhouette statistic to test how well the data is clustered. The test uses the gap statistic to determine how well the data is clustered.
The test subdivides the data into successively more clusters looking for the first minimum of the silhouette statistic.
The test compares the dispersion of clusters generated from the data to that derived from a sample of null hypothesis sets. The null hypothesis sets are uniformly randomly distributed data in the box defined by the principal components of the input data. The method takes two suboptions: and . The suboption sets the number of null hypothesis sets to compare with the input data. The option sets the sensitivity. Typically larger values of will favor fewer clusters being chosen. The default settings are and .
Note that the clusters found in these two examples are identical. The only difference is how the number of clusters is chosen.
With Method->{"Agglomerate","Linkage"->f}, the specified linkage function f is used for agglomerative clustering.
|smallest intercluster dissimilarity
|average intercluster dissimilarity
|largest intercluster dissimilarity
|weighted average intercluster dissimilarity
|distance from cluster centroids
|distance from cluster medians
|Ward's minimum variance dissimilarity
|a pure function
Possible values for the suboption.
Linkage methods determine this intercluster dissimilarity, or fusion level, given the dissimilarities between member elements.
With Linkage->f, f is a pure function that defines the linkage algorithm. Distances or dissimilarities between clusters are determined recursively using information about the distances or dissimilarities between unmerged clusters to determine the distances or dissimilarities for the newly merged cluster. The function f defines a distance from a cluster k to the new cluster formed by fusing clusters i and j. The arguments supplied to f are , , , , , and , where d is the distance between clusters and n is the number of elements in a cluster.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a method for detecting that a moving object is in irregular motion within a group of moving objects performing regular motion.
2. Description of the Art
In many cases, the unusual motion of a moving object in a group of moving objects is found by extracting the change of the image of the object at different times. However, it cannot be determined if the object comes to a standstill by using this method. Conventionally, therefore, whether a moving object comes to a standstill and whether it keeps regular motion is determined with reference to the background image. However, the background image itself may change (for example, due to changing shadows) and this method therefore does not always track objects correctly.
The present invention is invented so as to solve the above problems of the prior art and to provide a method for determining if a moving object comes to a standstill and if it keeps regular motion, without defining the background image. The moving object tracking method of the present invention tracks the representative point of an object moving in a predetermined area.
FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of an embodiment of the moving object tracking system of the present invention.
FIG. 2 shows a flowchart for explaining the processing of the present invention.
FIG. 3 shows an expected range of movement for an object that has been initially found.
FIG. 4 conceptually shows an expected range of movement of an object that has been tracked over multiple images.
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the moving object tracking method of the present invention is described with reference to the attached drawings.
FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of an apparatus for carrying out the moving object tracking method of the present invention. Moving object tracking system 1 comprises central computer 3, communication line 2, camera 4, image processing means 5 and MPU 6.
Image processing means 5 comprises memory M which has a plural number of planes and to which camera 4 is connected through line L and buffers B. An image from camera 4 is input to one of the planes of memory M through one of the buffers B. Each memory is connected to a device for calculating the difference between images C through multiplexer MUX, whose output is connected to memory M through the same line L which is connected with camera 4. Any 2 images can be selectively input to the device for calculating the difference between images C from memory M. One output of multiplexer MUX is connected to the MPU and another is connected to the same line L which is connected with camera 4. Accumulation means I and labeling means LB are connected to line L. They perform accumulation and labeling, respectively, on the output of memory M.
A moving object tracking system using the present invention with the above components and structure works as shown in the flowchart in FIG. 2.
In step 2-1, camera 4 inputs an image of predetermined area at predetermined intervals (for example, 1/30 sec.), and the image is stored sequentially in memory M. Two sequential images are input to the device for calculating the difference between images C and an EX-OR between them is performed in step 2--2. The difference between the images can then be extracted out and stored in step 2-3.
In step 2-4, each group in an image extracted in such a way is recognized as a moving object and is classified as a group by labeling means LB. The classified image is stored in a memory.
As shall be described below, the initial finding of a moving object is processed differently than the case where the object has already been found.
In step 2-5, it is determined whether the moving object had been found before. If so, the representative point is calculated in step 2-6. The representative point may be the object's center of gravity, its center of Feret's diameter, or the coordinates of Feret's diameter of a predetermined position (e.g., upper left).
The representative points are calculated in accumulation means I. The center of gravity can be calculated from the primary moment and an area, and the coordinates of Feret's diameter can be calculated by repeating the operations of MIN and MAX for the coordinates of pixels in each group. When the first representative point is calculated, the expected range of movement for the object is calculated in step 2-7. The expected range is determined in the MPU and is recorded in memory M.
FIG. 3 conceptually shows an expected range of movement. When the first representative point is located at the cross hatch labeled A, the expected range is the doughnut-shaped area D centered at A. At the second extraction of a representative point, if this second representative point corresponds to the same object as the initial representative point, it is expected that it will be in the doughnut-shaped area D. When a plural number of representative points exist in the area, one of them is adopted or the mean coordinate of them is adopted.
After an object is first found and the above processing is completed, the processing from step 2-1 to 2-4 is repeated. This time it will be determined in step 2-5 that a moving object has been found, and the representative point is extracted in step 2-8 for the object that was extracted in step 2-3. It is judged in step 2-9 whether the object processed in step 2-8 is the same one as the object previously found. That is, it is determined whether the representative point exists within the previous expected range of movement.
The judgment is performed as follows. Based on a representative point in the expected range in the image (shown as D in FIG. 3), a search is made to determine if an isolated point exists. An OR operation is performed between the image including the representative point and the image of the expected range, and it is judged whether an isolated point is generated. An isolated point is a point existing outside of an expected range. When an isolated point is generated, an indicative brightness is output.
When an isolated point is generated outside of the expected range D but on the same side of the expected range as was the last representative point of the object, this means that the moving object has come to a standstill, that is, decelerated. When an isolated point for an object is generated outside of the expected range D and on a different side than the last representative point, this means that the moving object has moved faster than the predetermined speed, that is accelerated. The output of the means for calculation between images C is input to the MPU. The MPU will cause some indication to be made when there is unexpected movement.
FIG. 3 shows the expected range of movement for the second extraction. The expected range of movement for the third and following extractions is shown as the fan-shaped area E in FIG. 4. The area shown in FIG. 4 is defined by the previous representative point A and the new representative point B.
When a representative point exists outside of the expected range E of FIG. 4 any of the following may have occurred: i) the moving object came to a standstill, that is, decelerated, ii) the moving object moved faster than the predetermined speed, that is, accelerated, or iii) the moving object did not move in the predetermined direction, that is, accelerated. When it is determined in step 2-9 that one of these three has occurred, the warning is given in step 2-11. The next expected range is then calculated.
As mentioned above, it is possible to determine whether a moving object has come to a standstill and whether the moving object is moving with regular movement by tracking the object itself without registering the background image.

Enter coupon code 'oils20′ and get 20% off every size of these 100% pure essential oils and CO2′s. Check our sales and specials page on how to receive free shipping and the CBD blend of your choice for free with your order.
We know these oils have been hard to find, and each for different reasons. We've dedicated ourselves to delivering you the very best of these pure essential oils and CO2′s from around the world. Here's a brief on each of these these lovely oils…
- Vanuatu Sandalwood is very deep and rich. It blends well as a base note with many other oils, and has very pleasant aroma all on its own. Sandalwood is being continually replanted on the South Pacific island of Vanuatu, though distillers are being conservative with their farming. We have only one-third kilogram in stock.
- Moroccan Blue Tansy has become extremely difficult to find, as large companies have acquired much of the World's supply (which has really driven up the price). This is our 'go to' oil for seasonal allergies (we find a drop massaged under each eye quickly alleviates itchy-ness from grasses and pollen). It's a powerful anti-inflammatory oil with an incredible aroma as well. We met with certified organic producer in France, part of the co-operative whom distills this oil in Morocco to secure this important oil for you.We have limited supply until harvest this Fall.
- Frankincense 'Carteri' CO2 from Somalia is our all-time favorite Frankincense, with deep woody tones and light citrus notes. CO2 distillation of Frankincense has been heralded by some aromatherapists as the best way to product Frankincense oil, as it brings heavier molecules into the extract not found in steam distilled oils
Frankincense resin from Boswellia Carteri trees has been in high demand, and last year we saw it become completely unavailable for several months. Frankincense extraction does not harm the trees, and while production continues, demand may drive up prices soon (like happened with Blue Tansy last year).
- Helichrysum from Corsica is also becoming more and more rare as demand increases, particularly by large cosmetic manufacturers in Europe. We visited the distillers on Corsica to get more of this oil (our owner's favorite oil) ourselves! Helichrysum italicum does so much…read more on our Helichrysum page. (Both the Corsican and Corsican 'Fine' are on sale.)
- French Lavender CO2 is a wonderful, unique and rare oil we absolutely love. The cooler CO2 distillation process gives the oil an aroma akin to fresh lavender flowers. It's a little less floral and a little more 'bright' than the steam distilled variety, though generally has a similar therapeutic profile. This oil is not in danger of disappearing any time soon, it's that it's hard to find just yet. A very worth the experience for Lavender lovers!

What do the American people think?
Vamphaery: Sanders and his supporters knew this was the case long ago. There were other emails, and other (at least circumstantial) evidence that clearly demonstrated he was not going to be given the support of the party. Such divides were precisely why Sanders took so long to endorse Clinton, and wanted something guaranteed of his own platform - which he SORT of got in the form of Clinton's Citizens United pledge - to be built into hers before he would endorse. Clinton was chosen from the outset. The only reason this is being made an issue now - when it should have been made into one before, when it might have actually mattered - is because it benefits the other side, and because they're scrambling to keep Bernie supporters from going to Trump, even just as a protest vote. This is the kind of blatant, unadorned corruption that everyone just accepts - in both parties - year after year, election after election, and why I will not in good conscience vote for either of them. Both parties' offerings this time around are terrifying and don't do anything to hide it.

Excellent location, just on the edge (outside) the old, labyrynthine medina. Beautifully done. The courtyard is gorgeous. We had four rooms, they were each beautifully appointed, the bathrooms pretty and clean. Nice little rooftop with great view.
Extremely kind and hospitable staff. We looked forward to getting back to our riad just to hang out there, we loved it so much.
Riad owner has a friend who hosts dinners at his place - we ate there one night. The friend picked us up and dropped us off. The food was delish. Since there isn't much to do in the medina after dark, this was nice. The other night, we ate at Riad Ahlam. Fatiha, the cook, is incredible! I took a cooking lesson and helped make dinner. Her tajines were the best we ate in our 13-day trip touring all of Morocco.
Breakfasts are good, though eggs or some protein would be good. It's usually a spread of 3-4 different kinds of fried bread. Plus yogurt, orange juice and tea. One thing in Morocco: if you don't want mint tea, the offering is the worst kind: a Lipton bag. If you're serious about your tea, carry a few Twinings teabags with you. :)

Brooking enters the fray
Filed: Wednesday, 23rd April 2003
By: Graeme Howlett
West Ham's executive director and former player Trevor Brooking could be encharged with helping the club avoid relegation, it has been revealed.
Brooking - who, as regular readers of KUMB will be aware - was originally linked with Roeder's position back in January of this year. He is thought to be willing to help out in a managerial capacity during Roeder's absence.
Speaking this morning, the former England star revealed:
"Nothing has been decided and the speculation that I have been asked to take over is prematured. The press regarding Glenn Roeder was still being resolved on Tuesday and it was too soon for us to make any decision.
"The board will meet later today and then we can talk about what to do. We will have to wait and see how those discussions develop before talking about whether I will be helping out in any way."
Assistant manager Paul Goddard and reserve team boss Roger Cross have been taking training sessions since Roeder was hospitalised on Monday evening, and were strongly rumoured to be taking over whilst the 47-year-old boss remains out of action.
Brooking, who has no managerial experience (in a footballing capacity, at least) told KUMB last year how he regretted never taking his chance as a boss.

The visuals are a combination of maps, timelines, weapons, uniforms, and portraits of military leaders. The text is mostly sketches of significant battles. Battles is a term loosely used in this book. Some of the sketches are actually of campaigns or entire wars. The organization is broadly chronological, with brief material on how warfare changed from era to another, and the battles grouped together by geographical areas. A latter section also covers some terrorist actions.
Grant starts with the war between the Sumerian city states of Lagash and Umma in about 2450 BC and ends not too far away in space -- the ongoing war in Iraq.
The book has the expected shortcomings. There is a very brief section on what we know about Pre-Columbian warfare in the Americans. There is no mention of sub-Saharan wars not involving Europeans.
There are some surprising typographical errors in dates and map scales but not enough to avoid the book.
Together with George C. Kohn's Dictionary of Wars, this book would serve as a good, quick reference on world military history or a memory refresher. Or you can simply use it to whet your appetite for more reading on subjects generally not taught in Western schools like the wars on the Indian sub-continent or between Korea and Japan.
They can be reviewed together because of their kinship in sharing the same visual concept and the same supremely expert author, R. G. Grant. No pilgrim, Grant is the author of over 20 books, most on the subject of conflict, implements of war and the fighting man.
All three books are wonderfully delicious for those of us whose DNA inclines us toward the history of arms, armament and the men who have carried them. These books are chock full of photographs, charts, maps and illustrations on every page to beautifully compliment and expand upon a tightly written, no fluff text. And this text is extremely well researched.
In the spirit of full disclosure, I must confess that I have not read each of these three books in their entirety. I've had them for only 2 weeks and after scanning them from start to finish, I am now devouring them slowly, page by page, like a monk with a holy book, meting out tasty morsels judiciously. I want this to last a long time.
Although, the books overlap to a degree, they are not repetitious in any negative way as they each have their own exclusive focus.
Warrior takes on the subject of the individual fighting man from 600 BCE to the present, from the Greek Hoplite, the Samurai, Zulu, Mongol bowman, American rifleman to the modern western infantry and special forces...and almost everything in between.
Weapon focuses on just about every kind of implement of a fighting man's arsenal of killing tools from Assyrian spears to the AK 47.Read more ›

That week flew by, didn't it? This past week has been a busy one. My sister & her family came and stayed with us over night. We enjoyed spending time with them. We are super excited that my sister and her boys get to stay for another week, while her husband goes to interview for jobs. Sure hope they move closer, but we will see.
All a sudden the weather this week has changed to cold again here in Wyoming. I just put my Spring wreath on my front door too. Geeze! I am hoping for a warmer week this coming week.

Antioch Township Supervisor Election
Posted in the Lake Villa Forum
1 - 13 of 13 Comments Last updated Apr 9, 2013
#1 Mar 8, 2013
Can someone please explain the differences between the candidates running for Antioch Township Supervisor?
#2 Mar 8, 2013
Haven't you heard.......there is a good likely-hood
the township will be disbanded. Look for an upcoming referendum.
#3 Mar 9, 2013
Yes, hopefully the township supervisor and trustee positions will be discontinued because it's not needed and is a complete waste of taxpayer money.
#4 Mar 11, 2013
Save the money do away with the township its not needed and would save taxpayers money. Also the guy running for township trustee Brent Bluthardt is not a well liked guy. He is what you call a problem child and doesn't know how to "play nice", in other words he is not a team player and only looks out for himself and not the people. He is a very self serving individual and would be totally wrong for Antioch or anywhere for that matter. He is a wanna be with no real "know how experience". He is connected to all the wrong people that would spell disaster for Antioch--he is the former president of the Antioch Republican Club and that in itself says there is no way I would ever vote for that guy. I smell trouble with anyone connected to that so called club and yes I'm Republican--that includes not voting for Garborek running for Village Mayor. Not good at all. Not voting for Township positions cause I believe it shouldn't exist in the first place, but I definitely wouldn't vote for Bluthhardt.
#5 Mar 12, 2013
From what I understand, Jack Fields is the better candidate. Smouse let all that baloney happen with the Rescue squad and fire department. The use of tax dollars was a joke the last year. Jack has a clear plan to benefit the people of Antioch
He has real estate experience which is favorable considering one of the Townships main duties involves property assessment. He wants to be more visible in the community so people don't have to ask, "why not push all important duties to corrupt, bureaucratic Lake County government?"
My point is, if you're of the opinion that Township government should be phased out fine. That doesn't mean you shouldn't take your vote for Township Supervisor seriously. The reality of that actually happening in Antioch is slim and a new Supervisor will inevitably be elected. So make sure the right guy is in charge of your tax money.
#6 Mar 13, 2013
Thank you Mrs Fields for your outstanding reveiw of the family name.However they are both a waste of tax-payer dollars.
#7 Mar 13, 2013
So......what you're saying is even though the the Township (and I mean ALL of the township) is a total waste of taxpayers' money, we should also waste our valuable time to vote to put into office more waste to be "in charge of your tax money.". Too Funny, Hmmmmmm something wrong with that picture. They all get a free ride at our expense and I take that very seriously!
#8 Mar 13, 2013
No, I'm saying someone will be elected regardless of how you feel. So you can bitch bitch bitch or pick "the lesser of two evils". The question was "the difference between the two" not whether or not the position should exist. I was just trying to help someone out with my understanding of the situation. I see your point, however rudely you all choose to make it.
To the original questioner who asked, I'm sorry you came here. Check elsewhere. These people on here are miserable and useless and should really just admit how much they hate themselves rather than trying their damnest to spread their misery.
#9 Mar 13, 2013
Wow, "These people on here are miserable and useless." Guess that includes YOU, but your words. LOL - Toooo funny!
#10 Mar 13, 2013
Trust me, I do feel useless. What a waste of time. Miserable, no.
#11 Apr 5, 2013
Guess if you live in the village you don't care about the township..... Fine. The township is a critical asset to serve the unincorporated areas of Antioch. Roads, snow plowing, elderly service, mosquito abatement, etc. I doubt the mayor of the county will care about us...
Smouse seems to have done a good job of keeping expenses under control and continue to serve the township needs. I see the guy out all the time, checking roads, treating standing water for mosquitos, checking on the parks, even snow plowing ! Somehow I doubt the other candidate will be out in trenches.
#13 Apr 9, 2013
Mr Fields,
Someone is displaying your political poster in the parking lot of the polling place at The Antioch Senior Center. I think the law is 100 feet. You might want to look into it.
#14 Apr 9, 2013
I'm not sure this is the best place to send a message to any candidate or campaign; perhaps you should reach out to Mr. Fields or any candidate directly if you believe there is an issue with a sign?

Retirement community installing photovoltaic panels to help lower costs, protect environment
MESA, Ariz. — The sun is shining brightly on 3,000 residents of the Venture Out RV Resort in East Mesa.
After overwhelming support from the residents, the community's HOA voted to install 1,300 photovoltaic panels. As long as the sun continues to shine, they'll be seeing significant savings.
"With the help of incentives from SRP, they are expected to offset sixty-five percent of their recreation center and 100 percent of their pool pump, bathhouses and administration building," said Patricia Garcia-Likens, spokeswoman for SRP.
The residents made the decision to not only plan for immediate and future needs, but they are a community committed to making a difference when it comes to protecting the environment.

Super Smash Bros. MeleeSystem: GameCube
Date: 2001
Though much of the gaming world missed out on the original Super Smash Bros., few passed up Super Smash Bros. Melee. Kirby appeared in the roster once more as a perfect character for beginners. Far from pegging him as a cheap little bastard, the game cemented the guy's popularity.
Kirby: Air RideSystem: Gamecube
Date: 2003
If there exists a dark corner in Kirby's bright history, it would be Kirby's Air Ride, a half-baked racing game for the GameCube. Based loosely on an early N64 demo, Air Ride's troubled history caused Sakurai to become disenchanted with HAL. Meanwhile, the game itself redefined "pointless."
Kirby: Canvas CurseSystem: Nintendo DS
Date: 2005
In 2005, developers were still a little unsure about what to do with this funny-looking DS thing that Nintendo had thrust upon them. But Kirby helped light the way. Entirely stylus-controlled, Kirby's Canvas Curse involves guiding Kirby to safety by drawing rainbow bridges over gaps and shields to protect him from enemy projectiles. You can stun enemies by tapping them with the stylus, allowing Kirby to bulldoze them and absorb their powers as usual. The game was well received and even inspired a Penny Arcade comic that speaks for itself.
Kirby & The Amazing MirrorSystem: Game Boy Advance
Date: 2004
Kirby & The Amazing Mirror shakes up the series' platform formula with some Metroid-style maze-based gameplay. Kirby's shape-stretching powers remained, of course, including some new forms like the wing-granting Cupid and devastating Missile. Also notable was a The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures-like multiplayer mode.
Kirby: Squeak SquadSystem: Nintendo DS
Date: 2006
Kirby returned to traditional button-based platforming with Kirby Squeak Squad. The skill-mixing system from Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards returned as well, though with fewer possible combinations. The story sets Kirby out on a worthy rescue mission for his missing strawberry shortcake.
Super Smash Bros. BrawlSystem: Wii
Date: 2008
With the excitement over new fighters like Solid Snake, Kirby was in danger of being overlooked -- until HAL Laboratory added Meta Knight to the roster and, even better, King Dedede. Sakurai even returned to HAL to direct the title at the request of Nintendo president and CEO Satoru Iwata.
Kirby: Super Star UltraSystem: Nintendo DS
Date: 2008
Kirby: Super Star Ultra is a DS upgrade of Kirby Super Star. It includes all of the subgames that appeared in Super Star, plus five more. Animated cut-scenes and the inclusion of Meta Knight as a playable character means that there's really no excuse for missing out this time around.
Kirby (Tentative title)System: Wii
Date: 2008?
Much about this possible Wii title is shrouded in mystery. Kirby's trademark enemy inhalation is confirmed, but much is just speculation, such as the supposed existence of four-person multiplayer. No U.S. release date has been announced, but Japan is reportedly on track for a 2008 release.
