8 Awesome Forgotten Video Games Of My '80s Childhood
Anyone up for a Wizards & Warriors tournament?
As a little kid in the mid- to late '80s, my world revolved around Cabbage Patch Kids, Cyndi Lauper, Family Ties and sticker albums. (So many unicorns!) But it was also the dawn of the post-Atari video game age, cemented by the release of the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Here are some of my favorite overlooked games of that era. Add your own!
2. Below The Root (Commodore 64)
I didn't even realize til years later that this game was based on a book by one of my favorite authors as a kid, Zilpha Keatley Snyder (You maybe read The Egypt Game?). You were a character with various magic powers, one of which was reading minds, while you tried to make peace between the formerly warring factions of Green Sky, Erdling and Kindar, which was probably supposed to be some kind of Cold War parable. (Maybe?)
3. The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy (Macintosh)
Based on Douglas Adams' book, this was a text-based role-playing game that I used to play at my twin friends' Jennifer and Jessica's house. They had a Mac, which back then was kind of a big deal (their original selling price was $2,495 when they were released in 1984). I loved this game, probably because it was kind of like reading a book.
4. The Goonies II (NES)
Any good '80s kid knew Goonies pretty much by heart. The Nintendo game based on the movie — you had to outwit Mama Fratelli and her sons to get to the treasure — used the Cyndi Lauper song "The Goonies R Good Enough" as its soundtrack (and if you have never watched the video, it is really worth it, even though now it seems a little… racist?).
5. Wizards & Warriors (NES)
A real B-list Castlevania — it wasn't nearly as wonderfully creepy and goth — Wizards & Warriors was nonetheless a solid wizard-must-rescue-princess game.
6. Montezuma's Revenge (Commodore 64)
Let us not dwell on the unfortunate title! Montezuma's Revenge was a classic treasure-hunting game that took place in Aztec catacombs, and Panama Joe was the coolest dude in a pith helmet ever to jump across a computer monitor. (Although those brown piles he's jumping over do resemble large stinking piles of poop.)
7. R.B.I. Baseball (NES)
This was one of the first games to use real players and teams (and their stats). So here we have Nolan Ryan going up against Don Mattingly, just like they would have in real life. Or you could have a best-of-seven series, or make the American and National leagues go head-to-head — which at the time, only happened in the post-season IRL.
8. Winter Games (NES)
Bobsled? Yes! Figure skating? Sure! Between this game and the actual 1988 Winter Games in Calgary, I became preeeeeeeetty sure that luge was a viable career option.
9. The Growing Pains Of Adrian Mole (Commodore 64)
In the course of my research for this post, I came across this game, and OMG WHY DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS AS A CHILD? I read all of the weird, wonderful Adrian Mole books, which were the (fictional) diaries of a pimply British teenager who does things like buy a girl a pound of grapes in the hopes that she'll make out with him. According to Moby Games, the goal of the Adrian Mole game "is to make Adrian as popular as possible by making the correct choices so as to exert a positive impression on Mum, Dad, Pandora, Nigel, Bert and all the rest." I want to play this immediately, and also forever.
It's the NES "Action Set." You had to have the gun, because otherwise how were you supposed to play Duck Hunt?
- A second wave of bomb threats sent to Jewish community centers brought the number of locations threatened on Monday to 29.

What is memory? The past few years have seen an explosion in our understanding of the answer to that seemingly simple question.
It could store exabytes of information and last millions of years — is biology's hard drive destined to be mankind's as well?
Tardigrades, already made of indestructible win, have shown up again in the scientific weirdness Hall of Fame this week, thanks to a new study that sequenced the first tardigrade genome and found that 17.5% of it came from other species.
The latest care package hailing to us through deep time is a pair of extinct cave lion cubs found in the Sakha Republic of Yakutia. Believed to be at least 10,000 years old, the Siberian lions will soon be the subjects of an intense analysis aimed at reconstructing the curious Pleistocene world.

World 400m hurdles champion Dai Greene has criticised the inclusion of a British football team at the London 2012 Games, insisting "there is no place for it at the Olympics".
The British Olympic Association have faced opposition to a team from the Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish soccer associations because they want to protect their footballing independence.
Welsh athlete Greene, though, opposes the idea because he fears more traditional Olympic sports could be "overshadowed" by football next summer. "I don't think the football team should be there in the first place," he told BBC Wales.
"I hope that those big names don't overshadow those people who have trained for four years to be there for that one moment. These guys have four to five weeks off in the summer then become an Olympian. It does seem a little bit out of place.
"These guys wants to win Premierships, Champions League trophies and World Cup medals. They don't grow up wanting to be an Olympic champion, they want to be the best in football.
"The crowning glory in football isn't being Olympic champion so I don't think their sport should necessarily be involved – or at least at a professional level."
The former youth-team footballer added: "Most athletes would agree with what I'm saying. There's no place for it at the Olympics. When some guy wins a gold medal in badminton or swimming, they want it to be about them and their hard work and their story to get there. But sadly in some of the papers that might be overshadowed with what David Beckham had for breakfast maybe – and that is not a great story from our point of view. I'm all for players representing Team GB but I wish there wasn't a Team GB in the first place."
Meanwhile, England began the post-Fabio Capello era yesterday, nearly eight months before the Italian actually leaves. While Capello plots a Euro 2012 campaign that will bring an end to his time in charge, it will be left to other senior Football Association figures to try to thrash out a route to the 2014 World Cup.
Club England managing director Adrian Bevington will head an FA delegation, also including director of football development Sir Trevor Brooking, for a meeting in Warsaw with their counterparts from Poland, Ukraine, Montenegro, Moldova and San Marino.
They will want June qualifying matches to be avoided, or at the very least long trips – such as the one that took them to Kazakhstan in 2009.
Key matches against second seeds Ukraine and Montenegro, who England twice drew with in Euro 2012 qualifying, will be pencilled in for September or October.
If there is no resolution, the matter will be decided in a random draw by Fifaat a later date. With only one automatic place for Brazil on offer, the man who replaces Capello – FA chairman David Bernstein insists talks will not start until after Euro 2012 – will have reason to hope Bevington and Brooking get their way.

Manhattan Beach, CA & Huntington Beach, CA – {March 1, 2012} – Kinecta Federal Credit Union (Kinecta) and NuVision Federal Credit Union (NuVision) announced today that the Boards of each organization have mutually decided to terminate their merger agreement. Roger Ballard will continue as joint CEO of both credit unions while Kinecta conducts a CEO search process and puts a transition plan in place.
As two independently strong, well-capitalized credit unions, both Boards agreed at the outset that they would move forward with the merger only if it offered substantial benefits with minimal disruption to members and each organization's business strategies and operations. As both credit unions have continued to assess the length of time required for merger review, approval and integration, they now estimate an additional two-year timeframe given the economic environment. Both credit unions have come to the conclusion that continuing the merger process for this amount of time would be too disruptive to their business and members.
"Merging two large, diverse financial institutions is an incredibly complex and time-consuming process that places significant demands on resources and diverts staff focus away from core business operations. Given the length of time now anticipated to complete the merger, both credit unions decided that moving the merger forward at this point is not in the best interests of either credit union or our members," said Darryl Johnson, Chair of the Board of Kinecta. "We still believe there are great synergies between our credit unions, and look forward to exploring strategic opportunities that benefit our members. We have tremendous respect for the NuVision organization, and know they have a great future ahead. The Kinecta Board has begun a search for a new CEO, and we are confident we will have a smooth and seamless transition. We also want to express our appreciation to Roger, who has done an outstanding job as Kinecta's CEO and played a key role in working with our leadership team to build capabilities that will drive our business for a successful 2012. Kinecta has begun the year with very strong financial results, and we expect to continue this positive momentum moving forward."
Robert Geraci, Chair of the Board of NuVision, commented, "It's been a great experience working with the Kinecta Board and staff as we explored how to combine our two diverse organizations. We've made excellent progress in our integration planning work, but both agree that continuing with the merger through this extended length of time isn't the right strategy for either credit union or our members. We firmly believe that taking a hard look at the prospect of a merger was a worthwhile, positive process for both credit unions, and we each came away with new best practices we've already begun implementing that will benefit our organizations in the future. NuVision has a strong strategic plan in place, and we're off to a great 2012 start with positive net income to date. We look forward to putting all of our focus and energy on achieving our growth and member service initiatives in the year ahead. While both Boards came to the conclusion that now wasn't the right time to pursue a merger, Kinecta and NuVision will have great success moving forward independently."
Both credit unions believe the merger planning process was beneficial in identifying new practices to better serve their members, and they will continue to explore partnership opportunities to bring members added value. NuVision members will continue to have the benefit of utilizing Kinecta Financial & Insurance Services (KFIS) investment programs and Kinecta gift cards, which were introduced to the credit union last year. The credit unions will also continue to partner on joint community programs as well as other internal initiatives through 2012.

So how do I decide which business hotel in London to book?
Typically, the most important factors when booking a hotel for business is price and/or proximity to your meeting, client, or event.
For London, the average price for a business hotel is $163/night. With prices starting as low as $9/night, you're bound to find something that works for you.
If you're concerned with proximity, we offer many great ways to help you make sure you're as close as possible. If you're on your desktop or laptop, the two easiest are probably by using either the Hotel Finder at the top of the page or the London map right below it.
If you use the Hotel Finder, just enter the address you'll be visiting and it will provide you with a list of the hotels near by. Then you can filter for all the features and amenities you're looking for. Make sure you find a room with free wifi, airport transfers, and a gym. Or don't. It's your room and only you know what you want. We're just here to make the process easier.
If you go with the map, you'll be able to get a much better visual on where each property actually is within London. Definitely look at this option if this is your first visit to London. Business trips tend to be hectic as it is - no need to waste time while you're there trying to figure out what's around you.
If you find yourself already in London, I suggest trying out our app. Searching becomes even easier since you can just tap a button to find all the business hotels "near me" in London. It's an awesome tool to use when you're on the move.
Finally, we highly recommend you use the reviews provided by our verified guests - fellow travellers that have actually stayed in the business hotels you're looking at in London to determine if the room you're considering is right for you (not only do we use our customer's hotel reviews, we also use Expedia's and TripAdvisor's!).

its a misdemeanor charge
There is no way to answer you yes or no without knowing what your sentence was. It most jurisdictions once restitution and court costs are paid then you go on an unsupervised status. You are still on probation for 11/29 but you don't have to report. With that being said, there is no way to fully answer your question.
"Nothing in this communication is meant to establish an attorney-client relationship. The information is provided for educational purposes only. No action will be taken on your behalf unless you have have hired me and entered into a written retainer agreement. I am only licensed in Tennessee and I suggest contacting an attorney in your specific city and state as soon as possible to avoid any statute of limitations deadlines, if applicable."
I agree with Mr. Hodges. I would also like to point out that payment of restitution is probably a condition of your probation, meaning that if the restitution is not paid during the period of your probation then your probation may be extended until it is paid off. As such I would recommend that you pay off the restitution as soon as you are able.
The information provided does not create an attorney-client relationship and is provided merely as a general answer to a general question. You should additionally seek the services of an experienced attorney for further help dealing with your specific case.
Without more information regarding the specific terms of your probation, your question cannot be accurately answered. In general, there is more to probation than just being required to pay restitution. If probation were to terminate upon the accomplishment of a specific task (such as paying off restitution), it is likely in your Judgment Order and I encourage you to refer to that document.
This communication does not create an attorney/client relationship. My answers are intended for educational purposes only. No action will be taken on your behalf without a written retainer agreement. I am licensed only in Tennessee. Therefore, if you are outside the state of Tennessee, it is recommended that you consult an attorney in your jurisdiction.

Watch Children of the Corn IV: The Gathering
"In a sleepy midwestern town... A horrifying evil is about to rise again!"
The Children of the Corn, as a franchise, is based on a short story by horror author Stephen King. The fourth film in the horror series, similar to the short story, is set in small town in Nebraska. Also like the original short story, the film is primarily concerned with the obsessions of a cult of youth as they begin to stalk the adults, ending their lives because they've simply grown "too old." The drama in Children of the Corn IV begins when a young medical student takes a semester off to come home and take care of her sick mother. The mother is having recurring nightmares

|Hector question under cassandra 0.7
|Wed, 20 Oct 2010 16:13:18 GMT
Folks- I'm finally upgrading the grails-cassandra plugin for 0.7, and wanted to understand a bit more on the usage of the Cluster and KeyspaceOperator . Is the cluster object retrieved from HFactor.createCluster() thread safe, and is the KeyspaceOperator required to only be in one thread? Or are both thread safe objects? My assumption is I can call createCluster any time as it will only create one cluster object. I'm trying to decide if the KeyspaceOperator should be unique to each thread (threadlocal variable) or unique to each web request. Thanks -- Virtually, Ned Wolpert "Settle thy studies, Faustus, and begin..." --Marlowe

Learn to eat seasonally, with friends, in A Platter of Figs and Other Recipes by David Tanis, including recipes for a Tapas Party, like Octopus Salad with Pickled Onions and Pimentón; Potato and Salt Cod Tortilla; Sea Scallops ala Plancha; Black Paella with Squid and Shrimp; and Membrillo and Sheep's-Milk Cheese.
Potato, egg, and onion make tortilla espanola, a delicious, thick frittata-like cake that's a Spanish classic. The best tortillas are homemade—restaurant versions tend to be pretty rubbery. Sometimes other ingredients like chorizo or greens are added. For this all-fish menu, I added shredded salt cod, but it is optional. Two cups of olive oil may seem like a lot, but it serves as a poaching liquid and can be saved and used again to make more tortillas or to cook vegetables.
The tortilla can be prepared several hours ahead of time and held at room temperature. For the best texture and flavor, do not refrigerate or reheat it.
Peel the potatoes and slice into 1/2-inch rounds. slice the onions about the same thickness. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet and gently simmer the potatoes and onions, without letting them brown. When the potatoes and onions are soft—about 10 minutes—carefully drain them in a colander, reserving the olive oil.
Spread out the potatoes and onions on a baking sheet, season with salt and pepper, and cool to room temperature.
Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the shredded cod, if using, and the cooled potato-onion mixture. Stir gently to incorporate.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the reserved olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook gently for 5 minutes, tilting the pan now and then to help the eggs set. Put a dinner plate over the top and carefully invert the tortilla onto the plate.
Add a little more oil to the pan, then slip the tortilla back into the pan to cook for 5 minutes on the other side. Flip the tortilla once more and cook for a few more minutes. Insert a small knife into the center of the tortilla to check for doneness—the knife should emerge clean. Put the tortilla on a serving platter and cool to room temperature.
To serve, cut the tortilla into small wedges or squares.
Shred the salt cod with your fingers. Rinse it well in a colander, then soak the cod in a large bowl of cold water for 4 to 6 hours (or overnight) to desalinate and soften it. Drain the fish and pat dry.

QD: News Every Day--Internists reluctant to stop PSA testing in elderly men
Elderly men expect to receive prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests and doctors continue to conduct them, sometimes even in men with low life expectancy despite the recommendations against the practice. Patients' expectations and the time it would take to dissuade them are two main reasons, a study found.
Doctors know they shouldn't do prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests in older men, but they do them anyway--at a brisk pace. An estimated 57% of men ages 75 to 79 years and approximately 33% of men with low life expectancies received screening within the past year, according to Johns Hopkins researchers who delved into the barriers to physicians stopping PSA screening.
The researchers surveyed physicians at Johns Hopkins Community Physicians, a university-affiliated practice comprised of 26 outpatient sites in 11 counties in Maryland. Providers were asked about screening practices, factors that influenced their decision to discontinue screening and what stopped them from stopping PSA screens. Resultsappeared in Cancer.
Responses from 125 of 141 providers (88.7%) showed that 17.2% of participants said they ordered PSA screening without discussing it with their patients, and 33.6% said they discussed PSA screening and typically recommended it. When providers ordered PSA screening, they overwhelmingly (90%) ordered it annually.
59.3% took age and life expectancy into account, while 12.2% did not consider either in their decisions to discontinue PSA screening. Nearly one-third of providers (32.5%) said that they did not have an age at which they typically stop recommending PSA screening. Among the 67.5% who said they stopped screening based on age, 26.8% stopped screening starting at age 70, 52.4% at 75, and 20.7% at 80.
The most frequently cited barriers to discontinuing PSA screening were patient expectation (74.4%) and time constraints (66.4%). The majority of providers agreed or strongly agreed that they typically took life expectancy into account when ordering PSA screening (76.8%).
Providers who stated that they had an age at which they typically discontinued screening also were significantly more likely to take life expectancy into account. However, 66.4% of providers described it as very difficult or somewhat difficult to estimate life expectancy in clinical practice, and 69.1% wanted a clinical decision support tool that would help predict mortality.
The authors wrote, "[I]nterventions will need to teach clinicians to take age and life expectancy into account when deciding whether to initiate and continue screening. For providers that already consider these factors, the development of tools that help clinicians more accurately and quickly estimate life expectancy may be an important next step."

Business Review USA, the top digital media source for American business news, speaks to the decision makers behind Toyota, CIGNA and Xerox about how their companies have improved efficiency through applying business strategies.
In the September cover story we speak to Rick Hesterberg, Assistant Manager of External Affairs for Toyota Motor Engineering and Manufacturing, North America; Len Javinett, Director, Enterprise Lean Six Sigma for CIGNA; and Aqua Porter Vice President of Lean Six Sigma Strategy and Business Excellence for Xerox and how they have incorporated Lean, Six Sigma and Kaizen into their business and how these processes have improved their brands tenfold. The executives also offer tips to other business professionals who are looking to integrate these tactics into their own business.
"Probably the most important aspect of driving Kaizen thinking throughout the organization is creating an environment that not only encourages Kaizen, but allows it to grow," Rick Hesterberg says. "Management must create a safe environment for Kaizen, engaging employees and removing barriers to their success."

Check out one of our newest items the e.l.f. Mineral Eye Brightener. Perfect for perking up those tired eyes and diminishing the appearance of dark shadows. Infused with Chamomile, Greet Tea, Mulberry and Vitamins C & E to help nourish, tighten and refresh the delicate skin area! Great for using as an eyeshadow base or around the nose, lips and anywhere you want to brighten and revitalize. To use just take a small brush and sweep over the powder and apply a small amount to the inner and outer corner of the eye to brighten and create an awakened look. Heres what others are saying about this great item.
Aly from Pa said: I was pretty skeptical about this brightener and didn't really expected much. I tried it after work day, very late and my eyes looked really tired. To my surprise it worked like magic! I couldn't believe what I saw in the mirror: my eyes had a fresh look as if I just woke up!! No dark circles and tired look!! Not it's my must have!!!
I'd give 10 out of 5 stars! Great work, Elf!!!
