Salt Lake City, UT – October 28, 2008 – SunGard has enhanced the financial planning capabilities of its WealthStation wealth management platform to help firms attract, service and grow client relationships. New capabilities of WealthStation Financial Planning include a cash flow-based approach to retirement planning, new online self-service client tools, and new financial planning capabilities for Canadian firms.
The current financial crisis is causing anxiety for many investors as the value of retirement funds decline, especially for those who are nearing or in their retirement years. WealthStation's new retirement planning, client self-service and Canadian financial planning capabilities help advisors guide clients through economic uncertainty and assess their needs throughout different periods, from wealth accumulation to retirement income and distribution, to planning for the unexpected.
Blaine Maxfield, chief operating officer of SunGard's wealth management business, said, "With investment options becoming more complex and market conditions in a state of flux, individual investors are increasingly turning to their advisors for professional guidance and access to diversified investment offerings. WealthStation helps advisors gain a holistic view of clients and households, maximize productivity and face time with clients, deepen client relationships and effectively guide clients through life events."
As phased retirement plans become more popular and offer advantages for employers and retirees, especially during difficult economic times, advisors need to help their clients manage income and spending options at different periods of retirement. WealthStation's retirement planning module has been redesigned to provide a cash flow planning approach that helps clients use assets on an as-needed basis and supports deferred taxation on qualified plans. It helps an advisor's clients take advantage of more specific, multiple retirement goals using multi-phased assumptions on objectives, returns and taxes, including factors such as part-time income.
Many advisors are looking to provide their clients with more sophisticated planning capabilities online in order to attract more clients, add value to existing client offerings and strengthen advisor-client relationships. WealthStation's online client access capabilities have been expanded with additional planning modules that advisors can provide their clients via the Web. This helps give advisors a continuum for inviting clients to access and perform analyses on their own, and subsequently reviewing and fine-tuning the analysis for the client at a later date.
Defined pension plans are becoming more valuable to investors as investments fluctuate during volatile economic times. WealthStation's Financial Planning for Canada module has been enhanced with new tools for critical illness, pension plan analysis and disability income protection for Canadian investors. WealthStation calculates the present value of current and ongoing expenses related to critical illnesses, and analyzes available resources and income needs. It also provides a pension plan calculator that helps advisors illustrate the expected economic value of each payment option available in many Canadian pension plans.
Developed using SunGard's Common Services Architecture (CSA)*, WealthStation can be deployed to support a single process such as financial planning or as an end-to-end solution. WealthStation's modules include client management, financial planning, investment management, asset allocation, data aggregation, trading and rebalancing, reporting, client access and compliance.
* SunGard Financial Systems is pursuing a visionary initiative to transform some of the key functionality of its core systems into components to form a new software development and on-demand delivery environment called Infinity. Infinity enables financial institutions to develop and deploy custom applications, integrating SunGard components with their own proprietary or third party components. Infinity uses SunGard's Common Services Architecture (CSA), a service-oriented architecture (SOA) development framework, offering business process management (BPM) and a virtualized, software-as-a-service (SaaS) infrastructure

The Rockyland is a pretty simple are. You'll have plenty of visibility on the Rockylands but the monsters can be quite dangerous ranging from large swarms of spiders to Tallbirds. Braving these creatures will reward you with large amounts of stone and gold.
It is impossible to plant anything on the Rockylands so it would be impossible to set up any signficant settlement in this Biome.

The Concept of Loverename
wufekilu's version from 2016-08-30 19:09
SectionDoes Love exist?
The doves certainly think so, as they whisper words of acceptance
Even the flowers turn fresh, vibrant, like the sun on a beautiful morning
But I disagree
For I've seen the blood that comes from loving
Seen the tears rolling down his face
The blood under her fingernails
And the glare in his eyes
Even the cold, distant look that replaced the once bright love
I could smell it in the air
The dreariness
But especially, the anger
The anger that made him slam the door as she cried behind it in disgrace
The anger that made her hide inside her room, unable to think
To breathe
Unable to even cry
But I've never seen happiness
That comes
Maybe I'm better off alone

Dhaka ready to sign transit pact with IndiaFebruary 4th, 2009 - 12:46 pm ICT by IANS
Dhaka, Feb 4 (IANS) Five days ahead of Indian External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee's visit here, Bangladesh has said it is ready to provide transit facility to its neighbour's northeastern region."I see no reason why we should not give transit (to India)," Commerce Minister, Col. (retd.) Faruk Khan said Tuesday.
He blamed the "mentality of the politicians for hindering international cooperation in trade and economic development", New Age newspaper said Wednesday.
Disclosing Dhaka's latest position on the two proposed deals with Washington for trade and New Delhi for transit, Khan told a business gathering that the government would not sign any agreements contrary to the national interest.
On whether Dhaka would link the issue of giving transit facilities to India with transit to Nepal and Bhutan through the Indian territory for the use of Bangladeshi ports, Khan said: "All issues can be resolved if political will is there."
He said last Sunday that commerce was "a weapon in politics".
Ostensibly to soften opposition criticism, Dhaka is preparing to sign a Trade and Investment Framework Agreement (TIFA) simultaneously with the United States.
There have been reservations on both scores and the issue may get a political nod from the month-old government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina after an assurance that any pact with foreign countries would essentially serve Bangladesh's national interests.
As its northeastern region was bottled up after the partition in 1947, India has for long sought access through Bangladesh.
An agreement signed in 1974 after Bangladesh's independence provided it.
Khan pointed out that transit had been covered by an earlier bilateral agreement although it was yet to be made operational.

Well I guess I should start where I left off in my last post. We made it onto the plane, and after getting all the way to the runway, then turning back to remove a sick passenger and enduring the subsequent delay of finding his luggage in the belly of the plane and then refueling, we took off and made it to Miami. Then the 50 of us collected our 100 bulging bags and stationed ourselves by the car rental desks to wait two or three hours for a Peace Corps representative to fly down from Washington and meet us. American Airlines was putting us up in a Holiday Inn because, as it turns out, the whole situation was entirely their fault. The real reason behind the delay was that they had overscheduled the flight crew, and by law they need a certain amount of time off between flights, and that is the only reason we haven't been in Honduras since Wednesday.
Anyway, after much manipulating of luggage to get it to fit into the two shuttle buses that picked us up, we arrived at the hotel and settled into our rooms. A short time later, we all met in the lobby to go over the details of our next day's travel plans. Joshua from Washington had just finished explaining the itinerary when his phone rang. Everyone's paranoia focused on him, and the room filled with a tense silence that lasted for the duration of his call. When he hung up, he announced that there was a change of plans, and we would not be going to Honduras on Thursday morning, but would instead spend the night at the Holiday Inn and then change hotels and stay in Miami until early next week. This news was met with laughter, frustration, and chattering, and the meeting soon ended. When we thought we had only a night in Miami, a lot of tentative plans were made for dinner. After the meeting, I went with a group of trainees to a delicious Thai restaurant and ate too much.
The next morning, we again packed up our bags and loaded a charter bus to the point that there weren't enough seats, because our bags had filled the luggage area and heaped over several rows of seats. Our new hotel was nicer than the Holiday Inn, which heightened the surreality of going from three weeks of bucket baths to Miami and then getting stuck there.
Over the last few days, we've done some training, a lot of eating, and various amounts of sight seeing. I've discovered that I don't hate Miami as much as I thought I did. I also apparently acclimated a bit while in the DR, because I spent one day not covered in sweat. My former housemate said she had never seen me look so matte. The next day, however, we did a service project cleaning up a greenway, and I resumed my old sweating ways. Thankfully, a couple hours into the work, it started pouring, and I had a better excuse for looking like I just got out of the shower.
Anyway, I should get to bed. Hopefully, the next time you hear from me, I'll be in Honduras. Third time's the charm.

'There isn't time' is a setting of a poem by Eleanor Farjeon which formed part of a larger choral work, Song to the Year, to texts reflecting on the passing of time. This was commissioned by the Phoenix Singers (Taunton, Somerset) and their conductor, Andrew Maddocks
Causley Songs are a set of songs to texts by Cornish poet Charles Causley. 'The Owl looked out of the Ivy Bush' tells the unfortunate tale of an owl which goes 'too-woo too-wit', (although it turns out he is not entirely alone!)
'A Mermaid at Zennor' tells the ancient Cornish legend of Samson Scone, lured by the voice of a mermaid at Zennor Cove (near Land's End) to a stony fate . . .

My week has been filled with roses and thorns, lets take a look.
My first day in Long Beach was on Tuesday. I left my beautiful area of Huntington Beach where I had complete paradise to Long Beach where I didn't know anything. I got a new car, a phone with no contacts, a new companion straight off the plane and a completely empty apartment with not even toilet paper, and no air conditioning. haha. We got completely lost on the way home. We went way past curfew. I found out Sister Beaudette and I have the same weaknesses. Directions and our memory. Oh man... it was a crazy day! We went and worked in the evening and we were able to teach 2 lessons to less actives in our ward. So that was good:) When we got home, we were both exhausted. We carry all our luggage up to our apartment and we planned for the next day sitting on the ground because we didnt have desks or chairs yet. So that was our first day. It was awful to be honest haha but the blessing was that a member gave us toilet paper and cookie butter. I dont think I could have survived without that cookie butter!
Then the next day we woke up super tired because it was SO HOT. Way too hot to sleep without a fan. So you can already guess how I was feeling that day. CRANKY. The "rose" was we got to buy all new stuff for our nice new apartment :) The "thorn" was that we only did missionary work for like an hour total because it took so long to get everything situated. We thought we could go out and work but then our manager gave us the wrong key and the list goes on and on. We just had errands done that day.
Day 3 in Long Beach, our alarm doesnt go off. (Worst trainer ever!!) Because we have a new phone and I accidently didn't put the alarm on "daily." But the best part about the day was that the manager to our apartment complex is an inactive member that grew up in the church. She took it as a sign that we moved in and she wants to come back to church!! So we had a really powerful lesson with her. That was pretty great:)
Day 4 was uneventful, we just got rejected a ton. I have never had so many people NOT take a picture of Jesus Christ before. But this was the day we got air conditioning! So that made me SUPER happy.
Day 5 we go to our first appointment at 11 o clock, so after studies. We get there and the lady seemed totally normal the night before. but we knock on the door and she is completely frantic and she says "an earthquake is happening I have to go!!!!" ..........but there was no earthquake........... so we were like "uhhhhhhh ok..." Ive never had anyone reject me with that one before!
Then the next guy we talk to was an existential atheist. I dont even know what that means but in the middle of our conversation he says "Thank God we live in a free country." hahaha.... I was like... didn't you just say you were atheist?? Long Beach people are crazy.
Then we got completely yelled at by this guy because he wanted to talk to us but we wouldn't go inside his house. He was the only one home so we arent allowed to. He was super offended but oh well. He should know its not good for 2 young ladies to be in his house when no one else is there anyways!
Day 6 was a beautiful day:) people were nice to us and wanted to talk to us. We didn't find any new investigators but we did get to teach a really great lesson to a girl named Kaitlyn. She was baptized when she was 12. She was telling us that she wants to focus on figuring out who she is instead of going to church. We told her that she will find out who she is when she starts coming to church. We told her its where she belongs because she is a daughter of God. It was really really cool. :) I know Heavenly Father answered my prayer because right before that I just begged Him that we would be able to teach and help someone, then Kaitlyn let us talk to her. I know when we have the faith to ask, Heavenly Father will grant us blessings.
I know that when we have hard weeks, and we get through them it qualifies us to help others when they have hard times. It strengthens our faith when we see our prayers be answered and i am now very grateful when someone accepts a picture of Christ when before,I must have been taking that for granted.
My companion is one of the most positive people I know. She is my saving grace. She doesn't get discouraged.she just keeps working hard. One night I was just "done." and she was like "maybe we should sing hymns?" haha and I was like "no." but she keeps trying anyways.
Did you guys see the eclipse yesterday? It was pretty cool. It didn't turn red though from what we could see.
Oh and we are the first Sisters to live in the "bro zone." That means we live outside of our boundries and we live where only Elders can serve (cuz its ghetto). We feel pretty cool. First Sisters to make it there! Don't worry mom and dad, its safe!
"Trust God and Trust in good things to come."
I hope you all have a great week:)

Many hospitals are now seeing the value of palliative care and are assembling their own palliative care teams. Palliative care is specialized medical care for people with serious illnesses. The focus is on symptom management – providing patients with relief from the symptoms, pain and stress of a serious illness – whatever the diagnosis. The goal is to improve quality of life for both the patient and the family.
The palliative care team is made up of doctors, nurses and other specialists (social worker, someone from spiritual care) who work together with a patient's primary doctors to provide an "extra layer of support. " A patient can be referred for a palliative care consult at any age and at any stage in a serious illness. A person receiving palliative care can receive aggressive alleviation of suffering while continuing to receive disease-focused treatment. This is what differentiates it from hospice care. Patients under hospice care are no longer receiving disease-focused treatment; instead, the focus is on making patients comfortable as they transition to the end of life.
Palliative care treats people suffering from serious and chronic illnesses such as cancer, cardiac disease, CHF, stroke, COPD, kidney failure, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, ALS and more.
Palliative care focuses on the relief of symptoms such as pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, constipation, nausea, loss of appetite, difficulty sleeping and depression. It enables patients to understand their treatment options, which allows them to have more control over their care and make the best decision depending on their personal beliefs and wishes ( http://www.getpalliativecare.org/whatis/).
The team provides objective, evidenced-based information to help family members decide on the course of care. These decisions can become complicated if the patient has not stated their wishes verbally or in written form, such as in an Advanced Directive or POLST or if family members have different opinions on what should be done (or not done). The team also assists with counseling patients and families and provides education about care options.
The POLST (Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment) is a form that states what kind of medical treatment patients want toward the end of their lives. It is printed on bright pink paper and is signed by both a physician and patient. It accompanies the patient when they transfer from one care setting to another. POLST helps give seriously ill patients more control over their end-of-life care. It complements an Advanced Directive, but is not intended as a replacement. To view a copy of a POLST form, visit:
The POLST should be reviewed periodically, for example, when a patient is transferred from one care setting or level to another, when there is a substantial change in status or if the patient's treatment preferences have changed.
A patient who is capable of making decisions can revoke a POLST or request alternative treatment at any time. Also, a legally recognized decision-maker can request to modify the orders in collaboration with a physician based on known desires of the individual (or if unknown, the person's best interests).
POLST addresses the following areas:
A: CPR – attempt or do not attempt
B: Medical Interventions
– Comfort measures only
– Limited Additional Intervention with possible hospitalization
-Full treatment, transfer to hospital if indicated
C: Artificially Administered Nutrition-related
-Offer food by mouth if feasible and desired
-No artificial means of nutrition, including feeding tubes
-Trial period of artificial nutrition, including feeding tubes
-Long-term artificial nutrition, including feeding tubes
D: Information and Signatures
-Who POLST was discussed with (patient and/or legally recognized decision- maker)
-Advanced Directive reviewed if available
– Advanced Directive not available
-No Advanced Directive
-Signed by physician and patient or legally recognized decision-maker
Peggy Kirkwood, RN, MSN, ACNPC, CHFN, AACC, who is the Palliative Care Nurse Practitioner at Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo, CA explains that the palliative care team can assist patients and family members in understanding the different options regarding code status, when this otherwise may not have been made clear to them. For example, in the event of a cardiac arrest, a patient/family can request chest compressions, but no mechanical ventilation (intubation). She also states that the palliative care team can help patients and families comprehend and integrate the information they receive from the many different specialists that may be on the case (oncologists, cardiologists, neurologists, etc), ensuring that everyone is on the same page.
An important component of palliative care, especially when dysphagia is an issue, is the team's assistance in patient/family communication regarding prognosis and goals of care ( http://www.getpalliativecare.org/resources/clinicians/).
The team can help by answering questions and providing information, including data from current research studies. These studies can offer objective evidence on whether the provision of care/treatment (including feeding tubes) is beneficial or not, especially when prognosis is poor and there is little or no chance of improvement. Sometimes families want "everything done at all costs" despite what the literature says. In some cases, where there is disagreement between the doctor's recommendation and the patient/family wishes, the case may go on to be reviewed by the hospital ethics committee.
Decisions regarding artificially administered nutrition/hydration can be particularly difficult and emotional for patients and families. Dysphagia is inevitable with certain diagnoses such as dementia as the patient progresses into the end-stages of the disease. A patient with severe dysphagia may be unable to take any food or liquid by mouth, or may be able to swallow only modified foods or liquids but in inadequate amounts. It is at this point that the discussion of feeding tubes may arise. There are instances when tube feeding can be appropriate, (acute CVA, early head and neck cancer) however, for someone in the end-stage of life, tube feeding may serve no benefit and may even cause harm (Bannerman, 2009). In fact, patients who are dying may be more comfortable without the use of artificial hydration (Dunn, 2009).
Quality of life is often the determining factor in deciding whether or not to use a feeding tube. McHorney et al. (2002) found that patients with tube feeding had lower scores on a swallowing – quality of life rating scale than those not on tube feeding. Some patients decline tube feeding because they have concerns about "prolonging suffering by sustaining life" (Sharp and Genesen, 1996). Families will often say that eating is the patient's "only pleasure in life" and are unwilling to take that away from their loved one, even though they understand the risks of aspiration.
Potential "burdens" of tube feeding are the increased use of restraints, increase in pressure ulcers and the high risk of aspiration (Bannerman, 2009). Patients may be restrained to prevent them from pulling out tubes, however, restraints also limit a person's ability to move and change position in bed, which can lead to pressure ulcers.
The brochure listed on the link below is a helpful guide to use when determining whether or not to place a feeding tube:
If a patient and/or family decides against placing a feeding tube at the end-stage of life, there are options. The patient may be offered small amounts of appropriate food for oral gratification with clarification of the risk of aspiration and the understanding that it is not meant to sustain nutrition. A trial of tube feeding may be used for a limited time (Bannerman, 2009). Also, frequent oral care should be offered to keep the mouth moist and more comfortable.
It is important to include family members in the decision-making process so that "every patient and his/her family can make individualized decisions based on their own personal values and their interpretation of acceptable levels of disability" (Owens, 2009). Speech-language pathologists can add valuable information about the patient's current swallowing status and prognosis to assist patients and families in this decision-making process.
The palliative care team can be an important part of this discussion, providing education and resources to patients and families so that a patient's wishes and quality of life are preserved to the greatest extent possible.

Hi, I was in teaching practise at your school in 2002. I had the pleasure of being in Mr. McDaid's P7 class. The time in his class made me the teacher I am today - he showed me how to manage the classroom and still have your heart on the right spot. I clearly remember when I was allowed to teach the pupils the Danish song about celebrating the light; Lucia. We had to turn off the firealarms because of the walk around the whole school with candles, white shirts and the Danish song sung by the pupils in P7. It was a fantastic time! Love, Stine Vang - Denmark Exchangestudent at Stranmillis 2002.
Thought the P4 valentine messages was a lovely idea, I really enjoyed Aaron's message even if it was a little rushed.

In the wake of Dadri lynching case and rising cases of intolerance in Indian society, many noted writers have expressed their protest and returned their Sahitya Akademi literary awards.
Kashmiri writer Ghulam Nabi Khayal, noted Gujarati poet Anil Joshi, Kannada writer Rahamath Tarikere and five writers from Punjab — Surjit Patar, Chaman Lal, Baldev Singh Sadaknama, Jaswinder and Darshan Buttar — on Monday joined the list of writers who have decided to return their Sahitya Akademi awards, taking the total number to 23.
Besides, two Kannada writers, G N Ranganatha Rao and D N Srinath, returned Sahitya Akademi prizes for translation while theatre artist Maya Krishna Rao returned her Sangeet Natak Akademi award.
"What is happening in India pains me. To return an award is the only way to express my resentment… As a person, I want to live in a country that is secular, not one where freedom of speech and many religious identities is facing threat from communal forces," said Khayal, who got the Akademi award in 1975.
Meanwhile, cultural minister Mahesh Sharma Speaking to The Indian Express said:
This is an award given by writers to writers. It has nothing to do with the government. It is their personal choice to return it… we accept it.
Even the noted writer and Booker winner Salman Rushdie expressed solidarity with the writers and tweeted: "I support # Nayantara Sahgal and many other writers protesting to the Sahitya Akademi. Alarming times for free expression in India."
This whole episode started when a 50-year-old Iqlakh was dragged out of his home by a 200-strong mob and beaten to death after a public announcement from the local temple that the family had slaughtered a calf and eaten its meat in Uttar Pradesh's Bishada village in Dadri.

The Republic of Côte d'Ivoire is an African country, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean. The French name of the state means Ivory Coast, which describes the main commodity of the country in colonial times. The state gained its independency from France in 1960, though local variant of French remains the official language. France still keeps tight connections with Ivory Coast and participates in its military conflicts during last decades. The legal tender notes and coins of Ivory Coast are called West African francs after French currency. Almost all the local population has the native origin. Due to the huge amount of various ethnicities, the land is somewhat of mosaic of different languages, traditions and cultures.

Take That's Gary Barlow Has Unique Approach to Hair Loss
It seems Take That singer and former X Factor judge, Gary Barlow has some odd ideas when it comes to hair.
Following an earlier admission that he doesn't wash his hair, he has now said that he dyed his hair blond because he is experiencing hair loss.
Concealing hair thinning
The 'Could it Be Magic?' singer explained his newly bleached hair – a throwback to his 90's hairstyle from Take That's heyday – as part of a behind-the-scenes tour interview for TV show, Good Morning Britain.
When asked about his hair, Barlow replied: "It's departing so quickly now, I thought 'for the last time, I'm going blond'."
As Barlow has a pale scalp, going blond may make his thinning hair look thicker – though mostly only from a distance – but this is simply a bit of visual trickery. Whilst matching the hair and scalp colour can help to slightly conceal hair loss, bleaching the hair can actually cause the hair to become finer and more brittle. Obviously, for anyone concerned about losing their hair, this seems a strange action to take.
Due to the upkeep required to keep bleach blond hair from turning brassy, coupled with the frequent styling required for Gary's many media and stage appearances, he runs the risk of developing additional hair breakage. This is where the weakened hair snaps along the shaft, giving it a slightly frizzy, frazzled and thin appearance.
Of course Barlow will have access to top colourists and hair stylists who will undoubtedly do everything they can to minimise any damage from chemical or heat-styling. But what they can't do is use cosmetic methods to stop his Male Pattern Baldness.
Addressing signs of hair loss
Gary Barlow has shown signs of male hair loss for a number of years now, especially at the back of his head where the cameras have often caught his thinning crown highlighted under TV lights. He also shows an overall drop in hair density and slight receding at his temples.
Looking at the extent of his shedding now, it seems that Barlow's hair thinning is not so extensive that he would need to follow in former band mate Robbie Williams' steps and have a hair transplant. Whether or not he already uses some form of hair loss prevention is unknown but it does appear, from photographs and videos of the star, that he could respond well to a bespoke hair loss treatment course that includes the two clinically-proven medications finasteride 1mg and minoxidil.
Finasteride 1mg is an oral DHT blocker – DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, being the hormone which causes thinning hair in people affected by genetic hair loss. It is taken in tablet form once a day and inhibits the production of DHT, directly tackling the root cause of male pattern baldness.
Belgravia specialists recommend appropriate formulations of high strength minoxidil are also used as this combination approach, in our experience, tends to produce the best results. The minoxidil is applied directly to the affected areas either once or twice daily, as directed by the client's dedicated advisor. This helps to promote hair growth and can be particularly useful when dealing with stubborn areas of hair loss, such as a receding hairline or thinning crown.
As part of a bespoke treatment course, additional hair growth boosters can be added in, from the LaserComb hand-held LLLT device to highly-targeted Hair Vitalics hair health supplements. These compliment the action of pharmaceutical hair loss treatments by further encouraging healthy hair growth.
It only takes a minute each morning and night so, with a little patience, if Barlow went down this route he could potentially see his hair back for good – as long as he committed to continuing this regime.
The Belgravia Centre
The Belgravia Centre is the leader in hair loss treatment in the UK, with two clinics based in Central London. If you are worried about hair loss you can arrange a free consultation with a hair loss expert or complete our Online Consultation Form from anywhere in the UK or the rest of the world.

Such sad news :(
As time goes by and as Nintendo evolves, it'll become more and more obvious that Iwata was absolutely inimitable. I'm a little frightened that the 3DS/Wii U period will be remembered as Nintendo's last creative golden age.
All these reasons are why I'm so sad that he his gone. I'm actually surprised at how upset I am. Like many people I never had the pleasure of meeting him but all those Directs and all those times he spoke to show what the company was cooking up made me feel a part of it and excited for more great games. Thanks again Iwata. Also thank you Jeremy and the entire USGamer team for these articles they are great to read even if they make me feel sad.
I can't be the only person thinking about editing the complete Iwata Asks archive into a cofee-table book type presentation... right?
Iwata had a surprising influence on a great deal of my early videogaming library. I have a feeling he's going to be sorely missed, not only by his friends and family but by people the world over.
What a legend.
Great article. I knew he coded back in the day at HAL and Nintendo, but had no idea he got hands on as recently as Mario Kart 8.
@michaelburns64 Nintendo needs to do that, along with a massive tome showing off all those SMB/Zelda graph paper sketches. They never will, but we can dream...
@jeremy.parish Hopefully, someone will preserve them for posterity, even if only through unofficial means.
Thanks for a great piece, Jeremy. I had suggested elsewhere that Nintendo should put an Iwata tab on the eShop home pages, giving users a "Direct" link to games he worked on personally. Seems like a good way to remind people of all he did.
An absolutely magnificent list of the man's achievements, hitting on each and every virtue the man had.
All very real achievements, and good point about him being a very different man to old Yamauchi - i believe that played a big part in the direction Nintendo took in the early 2000s, not sure they'd still be around if a clone of Yamauchi had taken over.
@jeremy.parish Going by this article, there also needs to be a "Satoru Salvages" book done up as a companion piece to "Iwata Asks", filled with stories from other devs recalling how Iwata helped them in times of need. (I guess the title "Satoru Saves" might have a better ring to it though) :)
Best article yet on Iwata.
Great article Jeremy! Mr Iwata will certainly be a hard act to follow.
I know; Jack Welch twiches involuntarily every time he hears of some company doing that; hell, Nintendo's one of the best examples of NOT doing that willy-nilly. They were the vast majority of big software on those systems; what were they to do with less teams to make games? Pull a Saturn till the DC (NX) appeared?
This is a great piece. How many corporate heads actually go out of their way to connect with their audience/consumers, and how many would accept a drastic pay cut to ensure the health of their company? He was a hell of a guy.
And I just bookmarked the Iwata Asks links to listen to while running, so thanks for that.
Absolutely excellent summary and well written. This is such bittersweet stuff, reading so many Iwata articles this week.
Criteria i've come to judge the Iwata articles by: did it bring a little tear to my eye..?
Well done, sir (:sniffle:)
@NiceGuyNeon That was a classy move. Its a drop in the ocean in terms of Nintendo's overall budget, but as a gesture of solidarity it was extremely powerful. What a decent man.
Gaming Historian did a great video about Iwata:
Iwata remind me when, in the book Dune, someone comments that Paul Atreides being a Duke and Mentat at same time could be amazing. Iwata was a great programmer and president at same time, what is hard to happen again.
Iwata's career taught me a lot about the nature of business and how to deal with a culture of "what have you done for me lately?" A generation ago, he presided over two of the best-selling consoles in history, each smashing 100mil units sold. A generation later, the Wii U is a dud and the 3DS needs a drastic price cut and three years before it finds traction and people are calling for his ouster. Through it all, he handled it with class and grace. We didn't even know about the health issues until he died.
These articles anger me because all anyone said about Iwata prior to his death was how much of a dinosaur he was, running Nintendo into the ground with his outdated philosophies.
If he hadn't died, he wouldn't be the household name he's suddenly become, and nobody would care about his achievements. They'd just keep claiming that Nintendo needs to drop out of the hardware race and go third-party.
@TernBird Whoa, talk about painting with a broad brush.Edited December 2015 by jeremy.parish
Just out of curiosity, or just plain ol' greed, what would have been number 11?
@jeremy.parish I'll grant you that I am probably more angry about this than I should be, but I never saw a list honoring Iwata's achievements while he was still with us.
I obviously didn't know this man, but his death hit me so hard. I was so depressed that day. Even when I was critical of Nintendo, I loved seeing him in front of the camera. He always seemed to believe in what he was talking about so much and he came across as passionate and even excited at times. He was such a unique personality in a world of game company leaders who were just suits.

Infobus Sevilla Mobile – A Technical Overview
Infobus Sevilla Mobile is an info widget, that provides you with the estimated arrival time of buses to bus stops in Seville. It was designed for simple usage, for it has to be fast and easy for every user.
All the data is collected at real time from a server, even bus line names and bus stops. This information is currently available at the Municipal Urban Transport Company of Seville (TUSSAM) web page, but it is not easy accessible from mobiles at all.
It has three main views:
- The main page, with two buttons to access the other sections
- The search tool, where you can search for an specific bus stop
- And Your list of favourites (see image)
Once a bus stop is added to your list of favourites, you have access to additional info:
- Estimated arrival time of next two buses of the same line.
- Estimated arrival times of buses from other lines to the same bus stop
We have used Eclipse during the development of this applications, with Ant for deploying the widget directly to Opera Widget Emulator and generating the widget package. We also have in mind moving to JIL.
The first stages were developed with we developed with the emulator alone, and once we had a decent alpha version, we moved to the Samsung H1 device.
Javascript tools
For this widget we have used jQuery. It has full community support, and a lot of plugins. It has also support for inheritance simulation (jQuery.inherit plugin), and we have used it intensively.
All the 4 views and custom controls are div elements, with an associated class that controls it. All view classes inherits from a base class that implements the observer pattern for events, state pattern for transitions, and other common tasks.
The Data API
The data is the basis of this widget, and it is obtained from a .NET Web Service offered by TUSSAM. This Web Service is the same used by the flash app at TUSSAM web, and it gives you complete information about structure (used for bus lines, line routes, and bus stops), and dynamic info (used for arrival times).
In theory, consuming .NET Web Services is like other SOAP Web Services. There is a lot of SOAP clients out there, and after some tests we choose Mateo Casatis's client, this one.
Problems with XHR and .NET
Here is an example of one of the problems that we have had, and the solutions we found while developing this widget.
All was fine while using the Opera Widget Emulator, but it was not going to be that easy. Although everything works as expected in Nokia s60, the widget fails to load the data in Samsung H1. Of course, now we know, Opera engine is not LiMo WebKit engine. We don't have any way to emulate Samsung H1 on the computer, so we have to "debug" the device.
Debugging an application running in the device is not an easy task. You have to use a lot of "widget.showNotification", and try{}catch{} everywhere. Yes, everywhere. If one callback fails, it will not raise an exception. It silently dies. So you have to put a try-catch block inside every callback function.
After a lot of digging we found it. The problem was that the request failed with a Status 415 (Unsupported Media type). It seems that LiMo WebKit does not send a Content-type header, or it is malformed, and .NET Web Services are very sensitive to this. We modified the SOAP Client library to add this header explicitly, and it worked!
If you now have problems connecting to the server, probably it is related to your carrier, your WiFi config or TUSSAM server being down (nothing strange, believe me).
Of course, there were many other problems (SVG fails, CSS, etc.), but I don't want to be boring. If you have any question, please, feel free to contact us.
Thanks for reading!

Defiant Children: A Clinician's Manual for Assessment and Parent Training
The information in this program outline is provided by the program representative and edited by the CEBC staff. This program has been rated by the CEBC in the following Topic Areas:
About This Program
Target Population: Parents of children ages 4-12 years who are defiant or who may qualify for a diagnosis of oppositional defiant disorder (ODD)
Brief Description
Defiant Children: A Clinician's Manual for Assessment and Parent Training provides clinicians with a scientifically based behavioral paradigm and set of methods in which to train parents in the management of defiant/ oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) children. The program involves training parents in 10 steps through weekly sessions that have proven effectiveness in reducing defiance and ODD symptoms in children ages 4-12 years. The manual also provides information on the assessment of these children prior to intervention and with rating scales to use to monitor changes that occur during treatment. The manual further provides the parent handouts that are to be given by the therapist at each step. Therapists are granted limited permission to photocopy the assessment tools and rating scales as well as the parent handouts for use with families undergoing treatment in their practice.
Program Goals:
The goals of Defiant Children: A Clinician's Manual for Assessment and Parent Training are:
- Increase the value of the parents' attention generally, and its particular worth in motivating and reinforcing their child's positive behavior
- Increase the positive attention and incentives the parents provide for compliance while decreasing the inadvertent punishment they provide for occasional compliance
- Decrease the amount of inadvertent positive attention the parents provide to negative child behavior
- Increase the use of immediate and consistent mild punishment for occurrences of child noncompliance
- Ensure that escape from the activity being imposed upon the child does not occur (i.e., the command is eventually complied with by the child)
- Reduce the frequency of repeat commands the parents employ so as to avoid delays to consequences (act, don't yak)
- Recognize and rapidly terminate escalating and confrontational negative interactions with the child
- Ensure that the parents do not regress to a predominantly punitive child management strategy once training has been completed

The nonprofit Angels of '97 has raised more than $400,000 and given nearly $275,000 in scholarships to area students since it formed 13 years ago.
Originally created to honor five students from North Mecklenburg High School's 1997 graduating class who died from injuries sustained in car accidents and illness, it now honors 45 students from various area high schools, mainly North Mecklenburg, Hopewell and East Lincoln.
The original "Angels" are Laura Barnette, Travis Childers, Calvin Keziah, Mandi Meador and Kancham Potts.
The group's latest effort is a traveling Wall of Fame, which showcases the 113 recipients of the Angels of '97 Memorial Scholarship. The makeshift wall features photos of each recipient and a short bio with details about where they are now.
The wall of fame gives people a visual representation of how the community's money was used to help students achieve their goals, said Nick Reid, 23, of Huntersville.
"There are a lot of people who apply for it and don't get it and this is a great way to honor all the recipients," he said. "We have a couple students in med school (on the wall), people who are police officers, we have nurses who now work in Charlotte and we have teachers - so it's definitely affecting our community."
The past recipient from Hopewell High School received a $5,000 scholarship and plans to graduate with a biology degree from UNC Charlotte in December.
The group hosts two major fundraisers a year: a spaghetti dinner every March and a golf tournament every September.
With the help of a handful of volunteers, its first spaghetti dinner fundraiser, which was planned as a one-time event, served about 300 people and raised about $5,000.
Since then, the community has rallied around the group, which now raises about $30,000 a year through both of its fundraisers. And event attendance has tripled, organizers said.
"The community has just embraced it so much," said co-founder Sherry Harkey, 50, of Denver. Her daughter, Mandi Meador, is one of the original "Angels."
Stacie Overcash-Ingle, 31, of Huntersville organizes vendors at fundraising events and works with area parents to honor their children if they die before graduating.
"The wall gives people a reason to continue to contribute," she said. "On-the-spot donations are really common because people are so moved at our events."
Jane Bolton, 55, of Huntersville is another co-founder of the group. Her daughter, Laura Barnette, also is one of the original "Angels." Charles Guignard is the other co-founder and brainchild of the group.
"I think (the wall) is a really big hit because people can see where their money is going," Barnette said. "(The community support) is just awesome. It's beyond anything we dreamed of when we started, and it keeps going and going. It's just heartwarming."
The scholarship is only open to students of North Mecklenburg and Hopewell high schools. About 20 students apply for the scholarship each year. A student's grade point average, community involvement and need are considered when deciding who gets scholarships, which range from $1,000 to $5,000.

John Lockhart and James Broom provide an update on the pests and diseases attacking trees in the UK.
Chalara fraxinea: ash dieback
The fungus Chalara is present across much of England, and key stands at risk include pole-stage, unthinned ash (Fraxinus excelsior) plantations, coppice and natural regeneration. In such places it is important to thin by 20–30% to increase airflow, which will help prevent a build-up of spores.
In mature stands, it is advisable to remove ash trees that have more than 50% of the crown affected by dieback as these are likely to be severely stressed, have limited genetic resistance and will be actively spreading spores.
Emerald ash borer
Originating from Eastern Asia, the Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis) is a species of beetle that has already killed extensive amounts of ash in northern America following its arrival in packaging material. It should be expected to appear in the UK and estates and landowners need to diversify their ash stands.
Phytophthora ramorum
Although many Phytophthora species are present in the environment, ramorum is of greatest concern. Trees of the genus larch (Larix) particularly Larix kaempferi (Japanese Larch)– a common timber species in the west of Britain and the uplands – are susceptible to the pathogen. Infected stands are given a statutory plant health notice by the Forestry Commission (FC) and landowners are then required to fell all trees within 100m of the infection immediately.
Infected larch timber is also subject to a movement licence issued by the FC. Phytophthora ramorum has also been found to affect Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis) and Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) in laboratory trials, although no infections have yet been observed in the wild. More recently, Phytophthora ramorum has been observed in Devon and Cornwall on sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa).
Dothistroma needle blight
This fungus causes premature needle defoliation on pine species – reducing growth rate and therefore timber yield, which can lead to high mortality – and is of particular concern in the lowlands where Corsican pine (Pinus nigra subspecies maritima) is often a major component of commercial woodlands, in particular on lighter soils in the east of Britain.
Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) is also susceptible. The preferred management method is regular thinning to increase airflow and prevent the conditions under which the fungus can thrive.
Acute oak decline
Suspected to have first arrived in the UK 30–35 years ago, acute oak decline is a condition that commonly affects mature trees.
Trees in decline will have vertical, weeping fissures that seep black fluid down the trunk, known as stem bleeds, and some die four to six years after the onset of symptoms. The larval galleries of the native buprestid beetle (Agrilus biguttatus) are usually found in relation to the lesions, with their characteristic D-shaped exit holes identifiable in the bark.
Oak processionary moth
The principal risk from this moth is to human health, as the fine hairs of the caterpillars are an irritant. This pest is currently restricted to London, Surrey and Berkshire, but is spreading relentlessly.
It is extremely important to notify the FC on discovery of the caterpillar. Current management is expensive, and focuses on manual removal of nests and caterpillars along with careful application of insecticide in Spring. The threat level is medium, in terms of its implications for timber, but is of critical concern in urban or more populous areas.
Massaria disease
This is found on plane trees (Platanus x hispanica) and causes lesions on major branches that can lead to branch drop. This is an obvious concern in urban settings, where London plane is such a critical component of urban tree resource. Regular assessments should be undertaken and appropriate remedial work carried out.
This is an edited extract. Read the full article on tree pests and management in the July-August 2016 issue of the Land Journal

Kasich Agriculture appointee denies his bill gets rid of his job; his own bill disagrees
Seriously, who knew that an appointment for Agriculture Director could go so wrong.
In the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Rep. Zehringer responds to the allegations that his bill, House Bill 25, eliminates his position and agency:
Last year, Zehringer supported a proposal that would have eliminated the Agriculture Department. He was one of 35 Republicans who co-sponsored a bill to restructure the state's 20 Cabinet-level departments by consolidating their functions into 10 new state departments. The bill went nowhere under Democrats who controlled the House.
Zehringer said he still supports the plan, which he did not view as eliminating the department. He said the plan would have combined it with other departments in hopes of saving money.
Unfortunately, Zehringer's own bill disagrees:
Although I know it is elitist to say it, but Zehringer has no formal education beyond high school (except for maybe some legislative "leadership" seminars he attended as a Member of the Ohio House.) And although he is the ranking member on the House Agricultural Committee, a quick review of his legislative record shows that he paid very little attention to agricultural issues in his two terms in Ohio House. His official biography lists that he at one time owned and operated a poultry and fish farm. He's the chair of the Livestock Standards Board. That's about the depth of his relevant experience.
But what Zehringer DID do was be one of two State lawmakers who came out and lent their name to Kasich's Common Sense Initiative (CSI.. also known a "Claiming Strickland's Ideas") Not only that, but the Kasich campaign actually mentioned Zehringer by name in its CSI plan:
Sen. Keith Faber and Rep. Jim Zehringer will serve as the Kasich/Taylor Administration's liaisons for regulatory reform.
So, I guess that means Kasich actually may have already broken a promise in appointing him to run the Agriculture Department instead?
What a word for appointing a barely qualified individual to a high-paying job mostly due to past political support? Hmm… what's do you call that?
If you're John Kasich, you call it a "New Day, New Way" to do the same corrupt activities of the last Republican Administration in Ohio.
The education jab is really, really disgusting. Shall we take a look at some urban Cleveland Democrat office holders?
Governor Strickland's current Director of Agriculture, Bob Boggs, has six times more state legislative experience than his Kasich Administration replacement and also has a Masters' Degree in Public Administration.
Hands down Boggs is and was vastly more qualified for this position than his replacement is.
You can decry elitism all you want, but the simple fact is that it was Kasich, not me, Kasich who promised an Administration of eminently qualified professionals. He failed to meet that standard by instead going the political cronyism route with this appointment.
Given this and the Matt Borges appointment as Executive Director of his Inaugural Committee, Governor-elect Kasich is off to a poor start in his appointments.
Who would you like to take a look at, Right Ohio? Since you emphasize the word "urban," I assume you are slagging our black officeholders in the county. We have two: Recorder Lillian Greene is a former judge, and Commissioner Peter Lawson Jones is a Harvard law school graduate. Some of the others: Treasurer Jim Rokakis is an Oberlin graduate with a law degree from Cleveland Marshall. Commissioner Tim Hagan has a degree in urban studies from Cleveland State. Sheriff Bob Reid is also a CSU grad. And these people were all ELECTED. Frankly, when people are appointed i.e. hired, the standards should be even higher, as theoretically you should go for the most qualified people, not cronies (unless of course the two dovetail). Kasich is flatly going for unqualified cronies. Can you say "Coingate V.2? I knew you could!
LOL Do you really want to remind Cleveland voters what misfits and criminals they habitually reelect?
Kasich doesn't want people in he admistration who can 'get things done' or think independently. He only wants people who will listen to him. It really is all about John WALL STREET Kasich, the People of Ohio be damned.
Maybe Kasich tapped Zehringer to gut the department and eliminate useless regulations within the ag industry? That might tie it all together.
And I'll take a small business owner/farmer/former county commissioner/legislator vs. an overeducated bureaucrat any day of the week.
And you're not elitists … just closed-minded.
Um, Boggs' family farm. When he was in the legislature, he and his brother used to give the aides maple syrup from their farm. Everything you used to try to describe Zehringer applies to Strickland's current director in spades.
In this case, Zehringer got the job today as a reward for his political support, not because he was the best qualified candidate they could find. Quite the opposite.
Kasich promised an Administration of the most qualified professional. Zehringer clearly falls below that standard.
This guy Boggs you are touting appears to have never run a farm (big, small, or otherwise), nor does it appear that he has ever run a small business. His great experience appears to be that he "was raised on a small dairy farm in Ashtabula County." So he milked some cows as a teenager. Way to go … let's make him Ag director. Actually, now that I read all these bios, I'm pretty glad Boggs will be out of there soon, and we can have an actual adult farmer who can work with the ag community.
This is the same old crap. Read Boggs' biography. He sucked off the public tit his whole life, while on the other hand Zehringer was out in the real world contributing to the tax base, rather that taking a salary from it. But you plunderbunders will fall for a lousy master's degree in public management every time.
Pingback: Tweets that mention Kasich Agriculture appointee denies his bill gets rid of his job; his own bill disagrees -- Topsy.com()
progressive dem
Well I'm proud to admit that I am an elitist. When I go to the doctor's, I want the best doctor. I also want the best teachers, and yes, the best person running the ag department. (I'm also a populist, but won't get into that now…) I'd rather be "overeducated" like Boggs than undereducated like the new guy. Guess that's why I'll probably leave Ohio after undergrad for a state where education is valued more.
Yet again, you don't listen. He didn't just work on the family farm as a kid. He was working on it all his life.
I don't know how much Zehringer really did given that "his" farm–which he is no longer a part of–was his IN LAW's family farm.
The fact of the matter is that Zehringer has very little practical experience in running an organization the size of the Agriculture Department– which in the end probably doesn't matter since Zehringer and his friends in the legislature are planning on scrapping the agency anyways. Boggs had an income other than his public salary. He was part of his family farm.
As for government teet suckling, John Kasich is a prime example. Ted Strickland had far more time in the private sector than Kasich did. Funny how you've never criticized Kasich for spending most of his life "taking from the taxpayers" rather than contributing.
Everything about this screams this is an appointment that is more about political payback than qualifications.
I'm not aware of a single one of them not being a college graduate. So, what's your point?

It got lost a bit in New Zealand due to Michael Venus's stunning triumph in the French Open men's doubles final, but talks are already underway to bring Roland Garros women's champion Jelena Ostapenko back to Auckland for next summer's ASB Classic.
The Latvian who turned 20 on the day of her semi-final triumph over Timea Bacsinszky is a breath of fresh air for the women's game and having won her first Grand Slam with a phenomenal display of power hitting, must be top of tournament director Karl Budge's shopping list.
Budge has confirmed to NZME he chatted to Ostapenko's agent Ugo Colombini when he was in Paris and again by phone soon after the final where the Latvian came back from 6-4, 3-0 down to beat Simona Halep 4-6, 6-4, 6-3.
To think she claimed her maiden Grand Slam title having not advanced past the fourth round in a Major before and entering the tournament with a ranking of 47 is staggering. But it's also a sign of the void that exists in the women's game following the enforced absence of Serena Williams through pregnancy, Maria Sharapova's drugs ban and now injury issues, Victoria Azarenka after having a baby and Petra Kvitova only just making her return following the attack in her home last December.
Ostapenko who will rise to 12 when the WTA rankings come out later today will clearly be in hot demand with the bigger WTA tournament in Brisbane no doubt also keen to sign her. But what perhaps gives Budge the upper hand is the fact he handed the then 17 year old a wildcard on a three year deal in 2015. Unfortunately that deal ended after this year's ASB Classic where Ostapenko showed glimpses of her talent in a first round demolition of New Zealand's Marina Erakovic and went on to lose to the eventual champion Lauren Davis in the semi-finals.
Loyalty sometimes counts in tennis, but not always and ultimately Budge will have to offer a creative package to lure her back. In pure money terms he won't be able to compete with the rival tournaments in Brisbane and Shenzhen.
Ostapenko cracked 54 winners past Halep in the final, her forehand is electric but her backhand may just about be the best shot in women's tennis right now.
Four times Grand Slam champion Kim Clijsters told NZME Ostapenko showed remarkable composure that belied her inexperience.
"From the minute she stepped out there, the first game she played out there was impressive and the last game was very impressive. I am surprised the way she was able to handle the moment and it's great to see." Clijsters said.
Clijsters did however sound a word of warning for the 20 year old.
"The new challenge will be to learn how to deal with the emotions, every player is going to look at her and want to beat her. It will be huge to deal with. Her life is going to change immensely so we will see how she deals with that."
Perhaps the relatively boutique feel to Auckland's ASB Classic will continue to be Ostapenko's preferred destination when she starts preparations for next year's Australian Open. She's an excitement machine, let's hope so.

How do you all deal with criticism from family and friends about your dreads? Comments from people? etc etc....
Over the holidays I got a lot of mixed emotions about my dreads. Some thought they were cool/pretty. Most had all kinds of questions and wanted to know more. Then the rest hated them. For example my step mom didn't talk to me all day and when she did she said "so when are you going to be done with your dreads?" I said "like matured or like cut them off?" she said "cutting them off...."
Just when I was starting to feel really good about my dreads then all this came out and as I am still feeling good about them I am trying to move past the criticism.
