There is no denying its impact, but 15 years will date any game.
- Long adventure that spans three discs
- Barret is a massive stereotype but is still awesome
- Everything aside from the battle graphics looks hideous
- Story starts off strong and quickly devolves into a convoluted, meaningless mess
- Sephiroth is a lame villain. There, I said it.
- Square-Enix used this as an excuse to make a bajillion crappy spin-off games
There is no doubt in anyone's mind the impact Final Fantasy VII had on the industry, in multiple facets. First off, it came out on the Sony Playstation, a new contender to the console market that opted to use CD-ROMs over the usual cartridges, and people were seriously wondering if it could contend with the highly advertised Nintendo 64. Second, the JRPG market hadn't exactly been nonexistent in the US, but it certainly wasn't pushing copies as much as it does now. Lastly, it ushered in a new era of something we now are trying to ween out of our games: the cutscene.
In a world fresh off pixel art, this certainly turned heads
But this isn't a review of the game in 1997. It's 2012, and the Final Fantasy series has doubled in its entries (more so if you count X-2 and XIII-2). After all these years, has this game really stood the test of time? Does the Soldier from Midgar still have the same emotional resonance as he did nearly fifteen years ago?
The story starts off with a bang. Cloud and Barret are part of a rebel group called AVALANCHE (yes, all caps, Barret must have had Caps Lock on when he typed up the name) who are convinced the Shinra corporation are using Mako reactors to suck up energy from the planet, essentially killing it. And when I say this I actually mean only Barret cares, because Cloud seems just along for the ride. An Ex-Soldier, an elite military force of Shinra, Cloud essentially has defected but for unknown reasons. He just sort of showed up at the mixer, I guess, and got roped into blowing up a reactor. It's a long while before you really understand what's going on, but whatever; mystery or something.
Anyway, probably because their attempt at environmentalism involves essentially being douchebag terrorists, eventually AVALANCHE gets worked up good and they find out their real enemy is Sephiroth, a trench-coat wearing crazy with a sword almost as absurdly large as Cloud's. It seems Shinra, along with killing the planet, also did a bunch of wild experiments with Jenova (which looks oddly like "Jehovah," which I'm certain isn't a coincidence), some alien thing that has magic, essentially. Sephiroth was made from Jenovah's cells...or something? Anyway he's pissed and now he wants to blow up the planet (ironic, considering you were blowing stuff up to save the planet at the beginning. Or at least I think that's ironic. I don't know.), so naturally you have to stop him. Cloud also has some sort of relationship with Sephiroth (no, not like that) that he can't remember fully, which he alsogame.
Compared to the tight stories of Final Fantasy VI, and even Final Fantasy IV, Final Fantasy VII's "convoluted by design" approach just comes off as bad storytelling. It keeps you in the dark about the important things for so long, often I'd watch entire cutscenes thinking "Wait, I'm supposed to be understanding this, right? Yes? How is Sephiroth in that orb thing when I'm pretty sure he just killed Aeris? Wait, is that a clone? So Cloud is a clone? How does that make sense? How will Sephiroth destroying the earth bring Jenova back? And isn't she already back; I fought her like five times and she has her own battle theme!"
I played Final Fantasy VII after IX, so maybe I'm jut tainted, but I had literally no reaction when Aeris was killed. This is probably because as a charater she's stupidly bland. The love triangle in this game is something recent young adult novels are doing in spades (just swap the genders around), and anime has been doing forever. Both Tifa and Aeris are massive character archetypes, with Tifa being the "childhood friend" you obviously inevitably go for, and Aeris is the "Manic Pixie Dream Girl" with a touch of that "Virgin Innocence" everybody seems to get off on. Both these characters have no depth to their characters, but Aeris is especially annoying. She never takes anything seriously, is constantly flirty but never deliberate enough to know if she actually is taking this relationship seriously, and because of that she comes off as annoying. When she died I was actually glad, because now at last Cloud would finally realize that Tifa was the girl for him (even though her personality was just as wooden, at least she wasn't an naive idiot about it all).
The first is Limit Breaks. Technically Final Fantasy VI had these, but they only happened when you were at critical health and popped out randomly, and since that game wasn't particularly difficult you probably didn't see any of them. In Final Fantasy VII, every time you are hit your "Limit" gauge rises, eventually filling up. When it does Attack is replaced with LIMIT (in rainbow colors!) and you can execute a special power move. The more you use Limits the more you unlock, getting to higher tiers (which means the gauge takes longer to fill but the attacks are much better) until you finally get an ultimate one that just murders everything dead instantly. Awesome.
The Limit Breaks change things up because technically you can save them. While you can't "Attack," you can use magic or any other abilities (and as you can see from the screenshot above, you can have a lot equipped), so if you get one just before a boss you can save it rather than waste it on weaklings. It's a minor tactical change, but a cool one. They also look really awesome when you execute them, so that's a bonus.
The other problem is it removes all character uniqueness. In the other Final Fantasy games (especially IV and VI), each character felt unique and personalized because they had their own unique move (or set of moves in IV's case) that only they could use. This helped build characterization in the battles, because you knew Edgar was the machine guy because he had a move called "Machines" that nobody else did, and Locke was the thief because he had "Steal." In Final Fantasy VII, there is no character uniqueness. You can swap your heavy attacker to a mage with just a few materia swaps. You can give somebody all your Command materia so they have the biggest battle menu in the history of the world (again, that one screenshot). Your options are increased, but at the cost of that subtle characterization. And while there are a few stat differences between characters early on, they are so small there's no reason to just pick whomever you want to do whatever regardless of what the game wants. Characters are no longer unique in battle (except Limit Breaks), which I feel is a weakness of this system.
The cutscenes were a big deal in 1997, and one of the big pushing points of the game. They look ok now, which is a testament to Square's graphic designers, but when they start moving things look bad. The animations are stiff and janky, with only select parts of bodies moving, and again: put in contrast with both the battle graphics and the much worse world sprites, there's a massive disconnect. I think this disconnect really hurts the narrative, but that might just be me.
Uematsu does well this time around, though not as good as previous iterations.
You knew I'd talk about this. Time to burn more bridges.
I'd also like to point out that I am so damn sick of One-Winged Angel I want to claw at my ears every time I hear it. Look, I get it. The fact it had vocals totally blew you away. You didn't see that coming because you were used to the SNES's chipset that didn't allow for that kind of thing. I understand. It surprised me too. But come on; the music aside from the vocals isn't particularly enthralling (I like the previous song, Birth of a God much better in terms of a battle song, and even Jenova Absolute is more tension building) and we've used it to death by this point. Dancing Mad blows this thing completely out of the water in terms of sheer epicness anyway.
I'm not saying it's a bad song. It freaked me out when I was fighting Sephiroth for the last time too. It's just...old. But Sephiroth does have that totally bonkers summon at the end that destroys the solar system, so I guess all my complaints are moot.
As it stands, Final Fantasy VII is a fine game, it just isn't a particularly great one. Yes, I know it has a legacy and yes, I know it was many people's first JRPG experience and it totally blew your minds. But I was a rather entrenched fan for a while (and I still really enjoy the game), but after re-playing it recently I came to realize that this game is seriously flawed, and these issues are even more noticeable fifteen years later. It will still hold a special place in my heart and I will still recommend fans of JRPGs play it, if only to know their roots, but as for being the "best game ever" (or even the best Final Fantasy game), I'd say it's a long shot away from it.
A relic from history, which now earns itself three out of five stars.

Lovefilm ditches game rentals - entire service to end by 8th August
Start date 3 Jul 2013
UK rent-by-post service Lovefilm has ditched video games from its catalogue of available entertainment, to focus solely on films and TV series.
"We are no longer offering games rental packages to either new customers, or those who wish to change from a non-games package," cited the Lovefilm FAQ (via Gamebrit).
"In order to give the best possible service that we can, we are looking to focus on our strength, which is providing the best selection of film and TV content for our customers, and making it available whenever and wherever you want it."
That's as detailed as the explanation gets at the moment; whether the decision has anything to do with changes made for the next generation of Xbox and PlayStation consoles is unknown. But now Microsoft has abolished its licence-based trade-in solution, little has actually changed.
Lovefilm is owned by internet behemoth Amazon, and faces fierce streaming, video-on-demand competition in the UK from US-import Netflix - a service that also doesn't offer games for rent.
Both Lovefilm and Netflix are available on PS3, Xbox 360, Wii and Wii U. Netflix will also be available on PS4 and Xbox One, and presumably Lovefilm will too - but what with the announcements being US-focused so far, it's been hard to tell.
Update: Only new customers are affected and cannot sign-up to rent games by post, Lovefilm has clarified.
"Lovefilm confirms that games rental will no longer be available to new customers signing up to its service in the UK, with effect the week commencing 24th June," a spokesperson told me.
But the bigger question remains: Does this mean game rental is being phased out of Lovefilm's portfolio for good, and for everyone? Why else would new customers be excluded?
An answer is being sought.
Update #2: Lovefilm will end its game rental service - for existing customers as well as new customers - any time before the 8th August, a Lovefilm customer support agent told me on the phone this morning.
A commenter heard the same 8th August date from the same customer service team, and wrote to Eurogamer this morning to bring it to our attention. Thank you that person.
Never rented a game or film from them so won't affect me, I'm assuming the service was used but for them to bin it it must have been slowing down with the online passes and such. Suppose it will give them more money for films and TV so go for anyone who uses them.


Here's a great deal on a.

Focus T25 Day 9, I’m posting this a day late since it was a late night workout. Yesterday, was a long 13 hour day of travel with flight delays and missed flights so I spent a lot of time sitting. When I finally got to workout at home last night around 9:15pm it felt good to stretch the muscles and move around. I’m really enjoying this workout so far.
Today is Day 10, Lower Focus & Ab Intervals video’s to follow.

A word of advice: Do not play poker with Tex. He's sly as a fox and has a history of finding ways to win. Tex's problem these days is that, as Crew Chief for Team Kelly, he's not winning like he did a few years back when he was the Crew Chief for Joe Kelly the driver.
And no, Tex is not from Texas. It's up to you to figure out where his name comes from.


SOLID architecture was commissioned to design the showroom of office furniture manufacturer Bene in a newly erected building at no. 4–8 Neutorgasse in Vienna. With a floor area of 1,000 m² the showroom is located at ground floor level and forms a band that runs along the facade. Bene also uses the first floor and a part of the second floor as offices. The intention was to offer visitors an interestingly varied tour through the world of Bene and at the same time to create a place with its own identity and an unmistakeable character.
Design of the showroom The walls, floor and ceiling are the surfaces that determine the character of the space: for each of them a single material was used throughout. To accommodate the different spatial functions and presentations of the show room, these design elements can be adapted as required.
Wall cladding – the “backbone” The entire rear wall of the showroom is clad with panels covered in fabric and forms its spatial backbone. The panels are built up on a modular system so that they can be easily exchanged and interchanged. The backbone defines and delineates the space. In the area that is also used for events the panels are backed with an additional sound-damping acoustic inlay.
Ceiling The acoustic ceiling to the showroom is made of blown glass granulate. All the linear light fittings and technical services in this ceiling run parallel to Neutorgasse. This direction is continued throughout the entire showroom. All the inserted services are flush with the ceiling.
Flooring – terrazzo The entire showroom, including the service spaces, has a light-coloured terrazzo floor. It forms a continuous surface on which individual functions and presentations can be individually emphasized by means of carpets.
Colour scheme In selecting the materials for the floor and walls it was important that these surfaces should provide a harmonious background for furniture with different surface finishes and colours. White surfaces as well as wood finishes with a strong grain should be able to make an impact and contrast with the setting. At the same time the showroom was to convey a warm and friendly underlying mood.
Internal staircase The core of the Bene premises is a centrally positioned internal staircase that connects all the floors used by Bene. This stair forms the central communication area to which certain gastronomic functions are attached: the bar with the “coffice” on the ground floor, and the tea-kitchens and the areas for informal communication on the two upper floors.

While the short-run financial status of Social Security is secure, its long-run financial status is very uncertain. The retirement and disability part of the system (OASDI) is projected to be in long-run actuarial deficit under the Social Security Administration's intermediate economic and demographic f9recasts. Hospital Insurance (HI) is projected to run a large deficit, beginning in the 1990s. OASDI is projected to accrue a very large surplus over the next thirty years, peaking at almost 30% of GNP. Social Security has never accrued a surplus this large; it may well be dissipated for other purposes, such as to bail out HI, fund other programs, raise benefits, or cut taxes. These alternatives may affect net national saving, directly because Social Security surpluses or deficits are part of government sector saving and indirectly through effects on private saving or the non-Social Security part of the federal government budget. This paper documents how various systematic deviations from, or return to, pay-as-you-go finance of the Social Security system may affect net national saving. For example, under base case assumptions with respect to the non-Social Security deficit, a constant net private saving rate of 6%, and long-run budget balance in the state and local government sector, the Social Security deficit offsets 40% of other net national saving over the Social Security Administration's 75-year projection period. In the first 25-year sub-period, the Social Security surplus adds one-sixth to other net national saving; in the second, it offsets almost one-half; and in the third, it offsets five-sixths of other net national saving. Of course, private saving may respond to changes in Social Security's funding as may the non-Social Security balance in the federal budget. The paper presents several alternative scenarios such as benefits increasing or taxes falling during the OASDI surplus period, various stylized rules concerning the non-Social Security budget deficit, and separate balancing of HI via outlay reductions or tax increases. The results indicate that OASDI may effect net national saving substantially. For example, if benefits ratchet up during what would have been the period of the OASDI surplus, the OASDI system may subsequently offset virtually all of remaining net national saving. On the other hand, if HI is brought into balance and the OASDI surplus is allowed to accrue, Social Security will offset only about 4% of other net national saving. Changes in private saving may accentuate or ameliorate the swings in the net national saving rate generated by the future financing of OASDHI, but the alternative financing options will be important determinant of net national saving, and therefore of private domestic investment and international capital flows.

Assistenza per la commercializzazione tecnologica
Gestione della proprietà intellettuale
A differenza di molti programmi di assistenza delle imprese, i business incubator non servono qualsiasi società. Gli imprenditori che desiderano entrare in un programma di business incubation devono richiedere l'ammissione. I criteri di accettazione variano da programma a programma, ma in generale sono ammessi solo quelli dotati di una idea fattibile e una pianificazione di attività percorribile. È questo fattore che rende difficile confrontare le percentuali di successo di imprese incubate rispetto alle statistiche generali di sopravvivenza delle attività.
Sebbene la maggior parte degli incubatori offra ai loro clienti spazio ufficio e servizi amministrativi condivisi, il cuore di un vero programma di business incubation sono i servizi che offre alle startup.
I settori industriali sostenuti da programmi di incubazione sono:
Bioscienze / scienze della vita
La tecnologia wireless
Tecnologia healthcare
Materiali avanzati
Difesa / sicurezza
Cucina / cibo
Vendita al dettaglio
Legno / forestali
 Commercializzazione della tecnologia
 Rivitalizzazione delle comunità.
Circa un terzo dei programmi di business incubation sono sponsorizzati da organizzazioni di sviluppo economico. Enti di governo (ad esempio, città o contee) rappresentano il 21% dei programmi di sponsorizzazione. Un altro 20% sono sponsorizzati da istituzioni accademiche, tra cui college, università e istituti tecnici.
In molti paesi, i programmi di incubazione sono finanziati dalle amministrazioni regionali e dai governi nazionali come parte di una strategia di sviluppo economico. Negli Stati Uniti, tuttavia, la maggior parte dei programmi di incubazione sono indipendenti, a base comunitaria e progetti dotati di risorse. La Economic Development Administration statunitense è una frequente fonte di fondi per lo sviluppo di programmi di incubazione, ma una volta che un programma è aperto e operativo di solito non riceve finanziamenti federali; pochi stati offrono un finanziamento centralizzato agli incubatori. I canoni di locazione e/o le rette dei clienti costituiscono il 59% dei ricavi di un incubatore, seguiti da contratti per la fornitura di servizi (18%) e da sussidi in contanti (15%).
Molti programmi di incubazione a fini di lucro o privati sono stati avviati alla fine degli anni novanta da investitori che cercano di schiudere rapidamente le imprese e incassare grandi ricavi. All'epoca, l'NBIA stimava che quasi il 30% di tutti i programmi di incubazione sono stati investimenti a scopo di lucro. In seguito al collasso delle dot-com, tuttavia, molti di questi programmi sono stati chiusi. Nel sondaggio dell'NBIA del 2002 sullo stato della business incubation, solo il 16% degli incubatori che hanno risposto erano a scopo di lucro. Nel SOI (State of Incubation) del 2006, solo per il 6% degli intervistati si trattava di attività a fini di lucro.
Il concetto formale di business incubation ha avuto inizio negli Stati Uniti d'America nel 1959 quando Joseph Mancuso ha aperto il Batavia Industrial Center in un magazzino di Batavia, New York. L'incubazione si è espansa negli Stati Uniti negli anni ottanta e si è diffusa nel Regno Unito e in Europa attraverso varie forme connesse (ad esempio, centri di innovazione, pépinières d'entreprises, tecnopoli, parchi scientifici).
La National Business Incubation Association americana stima che ci sono circa 5.000 incubatori in tutto il mondo. Nel mese di ottobre 2006, sono stati individuati più di 1.400 incubatori in Nord America, a partire da soli 12 nel 1980. L'Her Majesty's Treasury ha individuato circa 25 sistemi di incubazione nel Regno Unito nel 1997; nel 2005, l'UKBI ha individuato circa 270 ambienti di incubazione in tutto il paese. Uno studio finanziato dalla Commissione Europea nel 2002 ha individuato circa 900 ambienti di incubazione in Europa occidentale. Al 2018, il gruppo di ricerca del Social Innovation Monitor (SIM) ha individuato in Italia 197 incubatori di cui quasi il

Gang Beasts is a dang good time with friends, enemies, and families. It even made Nic’s list of games that are perfect for holiday get-togethers. But I only have two controllers for my PlayStation 4 (we’re not so different, Steven), and I’m unlikely to buy extras, not even for this physical comedy fighting game.
No sweat. The upcoming console port of Gang Beasts will support local and online play, Boneloaf’s James Brown confirmed today. Virtual reality too, which, sure, I’ll try that probably.
“We are also working on finishing the single and cooperative multiplayer game modes, the character customization system, and new content for the full game launch later this year — with PlayStation VR support and story mode content coming as free updates after the initial release,” he said.
It’s already onI’m right there with you if you’d prefer to hold off until it’s finalized. That’s a smart policy in general. The jelly people can wait.


“Initially it is a bit of a kick in the teeth,” said Elphick. “But we are second with two games to go, which is a huge opportunity to make plenty of people’s dreams comes true.”


Interesting Narnian Classroom Activity: SPOILERS
Scholastic has posted a play script aimed towards teachers, which allows students to act out The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. It would seem that the plot of this play parallels (at least to some degree) the plot of the upcoming film. The script is interspersed with several images that we have already seen before, but does contain a new image of the Chief Dufflepud.

I think the real movie will be somewhat different from this script. But still it’s interesting to read. Hmm…the crew is on a mission to stop the evil green mist? Lilliandil is a blue fairy? Okay, I’m HOPING that
Like the picture of Chief Dufflepud! Still not the way I pictured him, but it’s all right. I wonder how much screen time the Dufflepuds will have?
Since this is written for school plays, I think it would be slightly different from the original-the people in the movie are professional actors.
I love the chief dufflepud! Though I had hoped he would look a little more comical; hopefully his speech will make up for that.
I believe They wount be as comical, as they are in the book, because C.S.Lewis is one of the few authors who manages to bring something as comical as the dufflepuds up, without making the story sound totaly ridiculous. It’s very hard to get that right in a movie. i think thats also, why they have a reason, why they are turned invisible. they seem to not be the cowardly, silly, comical creatures from the book, who would turn them selves invisible, just to not have to see each other any more. in the movie they’re turnd invisible, to be protected from the *evil darkness*
From all the available evidence we’ve gathered over the last few months about the nature of the changes made to the plot, i doubt the final movie will be in any way majorly different to the plot as it is presented there…. with the exception of Liliandil being a fairy of course 😉
I was perhaps thinking along the lines of it being that the Seven Swords placed over the Stone Knife destroy the Dark Island – with the Stone Knife being the source of the Dark Island’s evil. But that’s just speculation on my part.
The plot as depicted here does seem to indicate that they need to sail into the Dark Island to retrieve the last sword – and presumably once the events that it says unfold there occur, Eustace now as a boy will be able to go to Aslan’s Table and place the final sword there, defeating the Dark Island.
So most likely. The Sea Serpant is in the Dark Island, and Eustace must help defeet it and then get the sword. He would turn back into a boy and be able to present the sword due to the fact that he played a significant role in getting the sword back….it’s pretty amazing what we can get by just discusing a scene.
Yeah, I’m also sure this was edited for the classroom because the play looks like it was meant for third grade or under, and they didn’t want them to be confused.
They do leave Narnia to fin d the lost lords, and later on try to destroy the DI
neither am I, and the fact that its being called the "eveil green mist" worries me even more 🙁
Lucy: how’d you get here?
Reepicheep: who thought of the sea serpent?
Edmund: sorry, it was me. I couldn’t help it!
ROTFL! That is TOO funny! I’m dying from laughter!
*lord rhoop stabs eustace*
Lucy: oh no! (me: cracks up)
And I really doubt the part about the ‘mist coming up behind Eustace and turning him into a dragon’ is movie stuff since it’s for a play. Obviously they can’t show a lot of spectacular imagery etc. And no need to fret about Aslan/dragonEustace and the ‘roar’ part. Again it’s a play and how do you show a dragon losing his skin on a play? 😉
to understand Coriakin’s reasons for making them invisible. Just their reason for being invisible is different =D
Some people speculated at the time that it was the second Dragon, but it’s more or less been confirmed now that the presence of the second dragon won’t be in the movie, so i would be fairly confident in saying that the smoke entering the shot in that clip was the "Evil Mist" or "Malevolent Mist" as it’s variously been described as in reports from the past.
icarus, okay thanks for clarifying. I didn’t know if that was movie lines or what! 🙂 But thanks for the tips. I’ve got to hand it to you for finding all this info for us. I’m surprised your not a moderator because of all the stuff you find! 🙂 How do you do it all? =)
Starlily, he, he! Though I wouldn’t worry about the diologe from this script ending up being like the *real* script. For one thing, I saw the translation from the German Storybook on Ben Barnes’ fan site and according to *that* Rhoop tells them ‘don’t think of your worst nightmares, they become real.’ (it sounded like Rhoop was on board with them, but again it’s a storybook, but it sounded like they were on board the DT) Right after Rhoop tells them that they heard a disconcerting sound in the water and Lucy says: ‘what did you think of, Ed?’ And then the sea-serpent attacks.
Hmm, wonder what this means about the WW, she wasn’t mentioned was she? Maybe she’s only there for a little bit. And remember what Tilda said? ‘I only filmed about 20 min. or so.’ Maybe… because of those trailer stills we saw (with Caspian being asleep)… maybe the WW is just some sort of elaborate dream of Edmund’s that’s just haunting him while on board because the WW was brought up? Or maybe she really is in the climax and they have to face the SeaSerpant and the WW at the same time… Caspian and Lucy were screaming at Ed about *something* Unless it was the Sea Serpent attacking Ed etc. But I doubt it…
I agree, I can’t stand those over exaggerated one-liners that no one would use in a real conversation!!
Cool information. But, one thing questions me by that picture… what is he holding in his hand? Cause from the look of it, it almost looks like The White Witch’s wand. Which, I don’t see why or how he would have it… also considering the wand is completely smashed and broken and no use anymore. Or maybe it’s the end of it that makes me see that… can’t tell if it’s an ice crystal or a feather.. if it’s a feather that makes MORE sense lol.
WHAT THE HECK IS UP WITH THIS EVIL GREEN MIST!
NO!!! don’t give them ideas!!! Don’t jinx it.
ATTENTION SILVER CHAIR PRODUCERS: He/She was joking…don’t do it!!!!! lol
Every Narnia person knows that the LOTGK isn’t the WW!!!!
I’m finally understanding the story better!
This looks really, really, really bad. I had a theory that the "unfathomable fate" was a result of the dark island, and it turns out that I was correct.
AHHHH!!!!!!! These findings are horrible and scary! That is not how VoDT is meant to be at all! Eustance gets stabbed? and no Pug and slave trade!!! The whole ‘not earning grace’ seems to have almost disapeared! It seems like the whole story was just made into a weird battle against an ivisible evil and not an adventure story at all! Aslan and his country wasn’t even the goal! My opinion of this film (if it be like this scrip and what we’ve seen so far) keeps going down like a plane in a nose-dive! *shakes head*.
FAIRY???!!!
Long Live Mr. Beaver!!!!
THis sounds horrible!! If it is the main plotline, it is so lame. And little kiddish stop the evil green mist and fairies uhhhhh I am getting upset.
I could perhaps grow to enjoy this movie apart from the books, (in fact, I probably will) but I simply can’t bear to see my beloved VDT demolished and completely wrongly enacted before my very eyes. It’s very nauseating.
i’m a movie lover and a book lover, and I’m not mad at you! 🙂 See? HUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGS! =D how’s that? Better? Oh, though *do* keep in mind it is for a school play 🙂 But then again it probably bears some simbolance to the movie script, so if that’s what ya mean, then I get ya! 🙂 Again, didn’t make me mad! 🙂 Actually, I think it’s the movie lovers who make the book lovers mad…
"To find out what happens next, watch the movie or read the book?" Don’t rnext…watch the movie. :p
Keep in mind, Austra, that the lines are designed for child roleplay and are probably no where near the actual dialogue in the movie.
Overall, looks ok.
I know this of subject, but how do you send a spy report? I just found something really cool.
I’m gonna need to sleep on this one. This is awful.
This is so great! I am loving the plot!
Cast of characters: Liliandil- A beautiful fairy????? Hmmm…. Interesting. Probably just trying to bring it down to a kid level…
ohhh no it’s the green mist kids. It’s gonna get you…
I don’t know what everyone else thinks…but personally I think that is one AWFUL makeup job!!! Hopefully it will look better at regular speed and not close up.
This just confused me more. lol
The main problem with PC was not that they made random plot changes. It was the fact that the true spirit of the Narnia series seemed to have been downplayed a lot (e.g. lack of focus on Aslan). The VDT movie at least seems to carry some of that "magic" that was in LWW.


Breads Without Sugar, Yeast or Carbohydrates
Glucose is a type of carbohydrate, which is a compound of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. Specifically, glucose is a monosaccharide, which means "single sugar unit." Monosaccharides can occur in nature on their own or can be combined into larger carbohydrates. Common carbohydrates that contain glucose include table sugar, milk sugar and starch. Humans use glucose as a major cellular fuel, and yeast do as well; in both cases, it's an important source of energy.

In language, dysphemism (from the Greek dys δύς "mis-" and pheme φήun "reputation"), malphemism (in Latin malus "bad"), and cacophemism (in Greek kakos kakός "bad") refer to the usage of an intentionally harsh word or expression instead of a polite one; they are rough opposites of euphemism.
Referring to the paper version of an online magazine as the "dead tree edition" is an example of dysphemism.
While “dysphemism” or "malphemism" may be either offensive or merely humorously deprecating, “cacophemism” is usually deliberately offensive. The term "orthophemism" has been offered to refer to a neutral name or expression.
Dysphemy is related to "blasphemy," but is less focused in scope, and therefore not directly synonymous. Often dysphemisms are applied to the same things as euphemisms (ex: a person who has died might be said to have "passed on" or to have "kicked the bucket")
Some humorous expressions can be either euphemistic or dysphemic depending on context because terms which can be dysphemic can also be affectionate. For example, pushing up daisies can be taken as either softer or harsher than died. Such variance can also be cultural; for instance, "twit" is a dysphemism for "idiot", but in British English is nearly always a humorous or affectionate term.

Dysphemism[1] means the usage of an harsh word or expression instead of a polite one. It is more or less the opposite of euphemism.[2]
Examples of dysphemism are “dead tree edition” for the paper version of an online magazine, or the American military personnel’s use of “shit on a shingle” for their common breakfast of creamed chipped beef on toast.
Dysphemism is common in everyday language. Sports teams do not actually slaughter or annihilate one another, and while a losing team may be disappointed or angry, they are unlikely to be shattered; few companies actually crush their competition; no one is actually dumb as a box of rocks (see hyperbole).

Adsorption Equilibria of Water Vapor on Surface-Modified Activated Carbons and Alumina
Suk Hoon Hong, Seongmin Jin, Keon Ho, Evelyn Hur, Chang Ha Lee
The adsorption equilibria of water vapor on surface-modified activated carbons (ACs) and activated alumina (AA) were measured at 283.15, 293.15, and 303.15 K at relative pressures of up to 0.9. The surface of commercial activated carbon was modified by acid treatment, thermal treatment, and KOH treatment. The adsorption isotherm was highly affected by the textual properties of the ACs. The isotherms and hysteresis of the thermally treated AC were similar to those of raw AC, whereas significant shifts were observed for the acid-and KOH-treated ACs. The amounts of water adsorbed by the thermally treated and KOH-treated ACs were relatively low compared to that of the raw AC in the very low concentration region. However, the adsorption amounts increased with increasing water vapor concentration. The adsorption isotherms of AC and AA were crossed over at a certain pressure, but the crossover point was shifted markedly to lower pressure for acid-treated AC. The modified cluster-formation-induced micropore-filling (CIMF) model was applied to the experimental isotherm data.

In coaching, we acknowledge the existence of "gremlins." Yes, they are as scary as the creatures in the moving. There is one gremlin in particular that holds too many people back from living their most fulfilling life. This is the "Fear of Dreaming" gremlin. People with this gremlin think they can't do it. They think they aren't strong enough; they don't have the right resources; the dream is meant for someone else more deserving, not themselves.

It seems that Charles Jagger really was apprenticed as a metal engraver with the Sheffield firm of Mappin & Webb, when he was a young teenager. That might explain his interest in British New Sculpture and his concentration on naturalistic surface detail.
The First Battle of Ypres at Horse Guards Parade was completed in 1918. Here Jagger created a view of combat where soldiers of both sides lunged at each other with grim, fixed expressions. The Deco expressiveness in the relief has almost a Soviet poster feel to it. The German helmets and the Tommy uniforms were realistically distinguished but the space was unrealistic – perhaps a dozen soldiers crushed together.
The Fine Art Society said that the reliefs were a testament to Jagger’s ability to create an image simultaneously heroic and harrowing.
No Man’s Land 1919 was low relief in bronze of a soldier hiding among the dead bodies, broken stretchers and barbed wire of No Man's Land. Presumably he was staying in that horrible location in order to hear the enemy's conversation. No Man's Land relief is in the Tate.
Cambrai Memorial 1928 in the Louverval Military Cemetery, France was erected to the memory of 7,000 British and South African soldiers who died without a grave. Jagger created two low reliefs in stone. In one, a wounded soldier was lifted from a trench and in the other a soldier looked through a periscope. The memorial was unveiled in August 1930, in front of British military dignitaries.
Clearly Jagger had honed his technical skills in low reliefs long before Scandal. The only surprise that Scandal created for the viewer was Jagger's content, not his technique.
Sotheby's, in the Bill Blass Collection, noted that Charles Sargeant Jagger was Mick Jagger's distinguished forebear.


Fannie Mae announced Wednesday that non-profit New Jersey Community Capital (NJCC) is the winning bidder for the GSE's first-ever Community Impact Pool of deeply delinquent non-performing loans (NPLs).
The Community Impact Pool of NPLs was specifically structured to attract bidding by non-profits, small investors, and minority- and women-owned businesses (MWOBs). Fannie Mae marketed the Community Impact Pool at the same time as two larger pools consisting of approximately 3,900 NPLs, which sold in mid-August for a combined $765 million. The winning bidder in that transaction was Lone Star (LSF9 Mortgage Holdings, LLC).
The smaller Community Impact Pool consists of 75 high-occupancy and geographically focused loans in the Tampa, Florida, area with about $11 million in unpaid principal balance (UPB26, 2015, according to Fannie Mae. The winning bidder, NJCC,"We’re proud to partner with New Jersey Community Capital to help neighborhoods stabilize and recover," said Joy Cianci, Fannie Mae’s SVP for Credit Portfolio Management. "This sale will reduce our holdings of non-performing loans while giving homeowners additional options to avoid foreclosure. We will continue to structure loan sales to foster participation of non-profits and small groups."
Fannie Mae began marketing its second NPL sale, which included the Community Impact Pool, to potential bidders on July 16 in collaboration with Credit Suisse Securities, Wells Fargo Securities, and the Williams Capital Group. The cover bid price for the Community Impact Pool is 81.43 percent of UPB (67.13 percent of the broker's price opinion, or BPO). For the 75 loans, the average loan size was $143,572 and the average note rate was 5.43 percent. The loans were an average of approximately 39 months delinquent, and the average BPO loan-to-value was 82 percent.
"
"We are thrilled for the opportunity to continue to expand NJCC’s innovative foreclosure mitigation and prevention programs in Florida to help keep families in their homes and enable distressed communities to flourish," said Wayne T. Meyer of NJCC. "ht sizing borrowers’ first s."
In May, Fannie Mae closed its first-ever bulk NPL sale. That transaction included approximately 3,000 deeply delinquent residential single-family mortgage loans totaling about $762 million in UPB.

walls around something God may have indeed done – but in the process shutting out further light. All you have to do is to look around and it should be obvious that no one has all the light there is! I recalled how often we had heard Bro. Thomas quote Prov. 4:18 whichKJV).
How often had we all heard Bro. Thomas emphasize the truth said toward the end of my remarks that I could think of no greater dishonor that we could do to Bro. Thomas than to fall into the very traps he had so often warned us of and somehow seek to preserve a movement that looked back to him and his ministry. On the other hand I could think of no greater honor that we could bestow upon him than to move ahead in the same spirit in which he had walked, looking to Christ the Head, and walking in the light He gives us until that day He returns, however short or long a time that may be.
Had I waited to say such things after Bro. Thomas had been called home there might well have been many negative reactions. Such is our nature. Most of us are “settlers” by nature when God’s kingdom calls us to live as “pilgrims.”
It was a great privilege to know Bro. Thomas. It is also a great privilege to do as he so often told us: “Seek God and do what He says.”

Ecosystem Ecology. These relationships of interacting populations are called ecological communities and their study is under the purview of community ecology. The writings of Romans and Greeks bear evidences of their interest in natural history. The first naturalist to give a systemised knowledge about the relation existing between living organisms and environment was Buffon. The solution of a particular ecological problem requires several lines of approach. As such, the journal does not publish purely descriptive papers. Ecological study, thus, is an integrative science, one that requires great innovation, breadth and curiosity. or may focus on how two populations (predator and its prey or parasite and its host) interact with each other. We will have to study the water itself and to find out the extent of the fluctuations in its constitution such as salt content, acidity or alkalinity in order to determine the tolerance of the fishes in the changing factors. Ecology is studied with particular reference to plants or to animals, hence the topics Plant ecology and Animal ecology. These factors are ever changing in nature. The natural curiosity of most ecologists, along with the complexity of nature, often encourages broad approaches. Ecology is a Greek word which means the study of the habitation of living organisms (oikos=habitation, logos=discourse). es. 2 Contemporary Human Ecology. Issues of interest at this level is how human activities affect food webs, energy flow and global cycling of nutrients. Let us assume that we want to study the ecology of a given species of edible fish inhabiting a large lake, with an object of establishing a new colony of these fishes to be started elsewhere. 1. ‘The Histories of Animals’ of Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) Study of Ecology 3. Evolution is no longer regarded as a thing of the past and it has been proved that evolution is a dynamic process though the progress is very slowInitially it was rather sharply divided into plant and animal ecology, but later the understanding of the biotic community concept, the food chain, material cycling concept etc., helped to establish the basic theory for a unified field of general ecology.

Happy Monday, folks! If you found waking up an hour earlier this morning painful, perhaps a fun medical mystery will make your Monday a little more enjoyable. Today’s case was sent in by a reader. Can you guess what our patient has?
A 60 year old man comes to the Emergency Room because of pain in his right heel. He has poorly controlled diabetes, and admits he is bad about following up with his primary care physician for checkups. The patient states he has had a sore on his right heel for months now that does not go away, but he put off getting it checked out since it did not hurt until last week. He has now developed pain in the heel, fevers at home of 101F, chills, and general fatigue.
On physical exam, the patient has a fever of 102.2F, ane is an obese man who appears uncomfortable lying on the exam table. Examination of the feet reveals decreased pulses on the arteries leading to the feet on both sides and decreased sensation on the bottoms of both feet. The patient has a 1 centimeter ulcer on the right heel (shown below). The surrounding skin is red, swollen, and tender. The rest of the physical examination is normal. A rapid test of the patient’s glucose is 240 mg/dL (elevated). The ER physician sends the patient for a foot x-ray, which is shown below.

My name is Jesse Overright and I am the web developer at KLRU. I work on KLRU's website as well as the websites for our local productions: Austin City Limits, Central Texas Gardener, Overheard, Arts in Context and more.

The fun part about KLRU Collective is that it's produced unlike our tv shows, using flip cameras and targeted specifically for the web audience. Because the features are shorter and easier to create, we've been able to open up production to staff that wouldn't traditionally be involved in creating video content. It [has] been a great way to get out in the community to represent KLRU, get a little taste for producing video content, as well as see some really cool art in Austin. We also actively encourage featured artists to share their video with their own fans and social networks.
Public media's future is beyond the tv box, where our viewers are able to watch our content without barriers of time, location, or television. I think KLRU is really on the forefront of transitioning our content online and really trying to engage the viewer in new ways. KLRU is becoming less a "television station" and more an important part of our community.

William Krabs was the owner of the Krusty Kantina. Unlike Mr. Krabs, who has a lot of money, William Krabs was broke because Dead Eye Plankton took all the money he earned. William Krabs first appeared in the episode "Pest of the West" and so far that was his only appearance. Although his first ancestor who had the Krabby Patty, King Krabs was before him, this ancestor didn't have the Krabby Patty formula, unless Dunces and Dragons does not take accurate place in the timeline of SpongeBob, he did not want to reveal the family recipe while Dead Eye was around, or the Krabby Patty was never known to him. It is possible that he might have an salty/cheap attitude like Mr. Krabs. He sells alcohol drinks, strangely having milk also.
He looks exactly like Mr. Krabs, but wears overalls, a green tie and pants without a belt.

The exhibits readily acknowledge that the Founders and other powerful white men talked a good game. But the curators are here to make us wake up and smell the coffee, with the goal of "perfecting democracy," as the press release said. The juxtaposition of artifacts makes the point clear. The curators take care that any glimmer of American idealism—say, the deed to the Statue of Liberty, included in the immigrant exhibit—is quickly snuffed out with a companion artifact: in this case, the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. The original 19th Amendment is shown, recognizing women's right to vote. A grand achievement, yes?

My main problem was that I didn't find the prep times to be that short, which made me feel the title was misleading. 30 minutes prep, and 45 cooking is not what I call "incredibly easy" or something that I want to attempt on a "weeknight" after a long day of work, especially when that's just for a side dish. ...
On second thought, I think I was too focused on the negative everytime I flipped through looking for something to try out. Perhaps I'll check it out again later, and try to find a recipe that looks good at a later date, as big as it is, there has to be something!) So, this review might be updated later. ...
Anyway, this cookbook is wonderful. You can tell it's made by people who love food that is...
The best tip I got so far (and it should be clear by now that I didn't get past the salads section) is, don't you hate it when you buy a bagged salad mix, have salad once, and then next time you want it, the lettuce is all yucky and limp?
Another tip that I'd like to try is, for a new year's resolution, to choose a cookbook (they suggest going with one that is specific to a style or country of cooking), and go through the whole cookbook that year. Make every recipe in it. Sounds fun!
For people who cook for pleasure and not just necessity, and for those who love food, this book is for you. ...
This one was fun to look through. The cakes were gorgeous. The type that take 3 days to make. Nothing essential to them, really. But good eye candy. N one of them were in my realm of artistic talent. Wait...there was one with stick people. Maybe that one;) ...
I have both the book and the talking book because I realized that the book group is meeting in 1 week, and this is the book we're discussing. Totally spaced on that one!...

For the scratches and other abrasions that may not be read by your laser properly again, once you get it applied on there, pretty good you're going to want to just go from the inside out again just make sure it's all filled out, and you guessed it. We are going to be waiting again for the deodorant to dry and fill in some of the cracks and create yet another layer of compound that will help reflect the laser and ultimately help the disc read so again.

The Presidency is a position, and a theocracy is the furthest from my desires, but I certainly do not want the opposite: Socialism. If you willingly vote in someone who is opposite of God, go ahead, you have the freedom to make choices. God gives us that--but you will also be held accountable for your choices.
10) I believe I expressed concerns over Obama, not McCain nor any other Republican or Conservative. Raising a question about one side doesn't automatically mean agreement with the opposing side. I agree the Republicans have entwined themselves tightly with Christianity. I agree they are as false as Democrats who hug tight to church when it's time to get elected. But this is about Obama and the blind adoration of his personality cult by blacks, and how troubling it is as a Christian who is black.
12) And regarding the Dems and the Civil Rights Movement--ever heard of Everett Dirksen or Thomas Kuchel? Did you know about the struggle to pass Civil Rights Laws the Republicans under Eisenhower attempted to pass? Or that without the work of Dirksen and Kuchel, the CRA wouldn't have gotten past the Southern Democrats? Did you know that the only reason JFK supported the Act was because it was time, but mainly because his arch-enemies, the USSR put America on blast for its treatment of blacks? JFK couldn't demonize the Soviets if his own country practiced "purges" on their own citizens.
13) One last thought. If you are unconvinced about the path America could take, go find blogs and articles written by Christians in Socialist countries such as the UK and Brazil. In closing, I had to speak out as a sister in Christ, I admire you and your blog, and your posts have supplemented my deepening walk with God.

I read the initial entry. At the time it only had three responses. I could tell that bomb throwing was coming. I decided to email attorneymom instead. Character Corner is one of my favorites as well. I just started reading blogs last year. Hers is one of the first ones I heard about. I don't remember where.
I agree that Angela is on the ball. As Christians the Bible must be our standard. My vantage point is my total distrust of media during this election season. It is so easy to just respond to what we hear and read. One of my friends at church had already decided not to listen to the madness and pray instead. I am in that mode myself. I had not watched much news but began when Barracuda was announced as the Republican veep nominee. That was probably a mistake. I should have kept the TV and radio off. After hearing about the fight over the bailout I decided to shut it all down for now. I may keep my Twitter updates but not browse the web. I need to stay focused on God's perspective. As I have statedn. Our problems have gone past any human being at this point.
As always Angela you are dead-on. It is good to know that there are like-minded christian black women in the world like you and Angela. I can't believe how sistah's shout all over churches on sunday and called themselves filled with the holy spirit but can't see beyond the Obama-mania. But God's has His Bereans. Thanks Pamela for your support on this blog, feel free to be my "Angela" should my perspective get spewed.
On 14 March the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Education) signalled that Angela Kim. Angela’s doctoral thesis was entitled ‘A Cross-Linguistic Analysis of Japanese and Korean Discourse Markers: -janai and -canh-’ (Supervisor Dr. Duck-Young Lee). Her thesis discusses cross-linguistic issues involved in -janai and -canh- as markers which express the speaker’s emotion and attitude within conversation discourse. By examining markers with similar construction and functions in Japanese and Korean, both within and aross languages as they are used in specific cultural/social environments and linguistic contexts, Angela’s thesis has shed light on some aspects of the nature of spoken discourse.
