Gotta collect them ALL





The Pokemon trading card game has become popular after its original launch back in 1996 in Japan. The most appealing factor is that the game is played similarly to the way it is played in the animation series which captured the attention of young people. Its complexity is similar to games such as chess due to the fact that each player needs to know exactly what each card does, the way it can be used in addition to the lots of others obtainable & how to anticipate assaults.

Each Pokemon card have marked on them their assault abilities, powers, weaknesses & hit points. The card games has only 9 types of Pokemon cards in lieu of the 17 which were originally displayed. The card color varies according to the Pokemon type, for example:

  • A blue card describes a Pokemon which resides in the water & has water abilities.
  • A brown trading cards describes Pokemon with earth, rock & fighting abilities. * Purple trading cards represent psychic, ghost or poison type.
  • Red as you may think represents a fire type
  • Yellow cards are used for the electrical type.
  • Silver or grey cards are used to represent metal, or steel abilities.
  • As assumed, green cards represent the grass type of Pokemon or the ones related to nature, bugs & poison.
  • Navy blue or obscure colored cards depict dark type.
  • & white cards represent flying & normal types.

Another basic card classification shows that every player's deck has over Pokemon cards, they also have stadium, supporter, trainer, & energy cards which affect other players cards according to its abilities. For example:

  • Stadium cards can block special abilities of positive Pokemon which will give an edge to some players over the remainder of them.
  • Supporter cards are used like stadium cards but can be played each turn.
  • Trainer cards permit players to bring back cards which have been discarded, remove energy from adversaries & heal destroy caused by assaults.
  • Energy cards are mostly used to enable assaults.

Each assault requires a positive amount of energy which depends on the Pokemon card. Some cards have no color specified so any type of energy card can be used to enable the assault, while others have a color requirement in order to work.

As you can see there is a lot of factors which influence how a positive card will perform in battle, the best way to quickly become familiar with them is by thinking about the classifications described above & relating them to a specific Pokemon card in the deck which will enhance its assault abilities & give you an advantage over your adversaries.

Vash last appearence ???

Badlands Rumble is not bad by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, despite half its run time being unnecessary jabber, it cannot even be called uninteresting, & that is a high compliment thinking about the weakness of the plot. No, in seeking to everyone & no, the Trigun film is as mediocre & trite as it is feasible to be, which might be fine for a year wait, but a ten-year?
Well over half the movie's run time is unnecessary or blatantly stretched out, which makes for absolutely atrocious writing, but thanks to the stellar production it doesn't dampen the movie's entertainment value. It is a middling TV episode wrapped in lots of hello jinks, but that is probably what most fans were expecting.
 enjoy this fan service to its fullest, because this is probably the finish of Trigun's animated legacy, going out not with a bang, but a whimper.

Rocks as ingridients???


These objects as rocks are hard-shelled seeds of the tree kepayang (Pangium edule), which grows wild in Indonesia and Malaysia. Kluwak known as the Indonesian and Malay buah keluak are an essential ingredient in rawon, an East Java beef or chicken stew, and ayam / babi buah keluak, chicken or pork an d Malaysian Nonya summer looking at heaps specialty.I kluwak of jobs to suppliers in Indonesia in Kuala Lumpur Chow Kit market for some time. Rawon was brilliantly served by a generous seller Javanese Restoran TAR neighbor I got in the way of the purchase. Dotted with small soybean seeds germinated only this entree begged to be eaten by a cold night in front of the fireplace. No chance of KL, but could put the CA release before I feel my own version.

The pale "meat" of the first kluwak are toxic. On Java, where most commercially available kluwak tribes, they are soaked and boiled to neutralize their hydrocyanic acid. The black meat treated seeds are soft and oily, like half-cooled tar (some might say, opium), and woodland smells like a forest after a long rain. It tastes a bit like a mushroom powerful, with a touch absolutely repulsive-yet-alluring of the nose.

Before mixing rawon kluwak grind to a paste. Depth of flavor, this dish refers to humility is difficult to document, but rarely have I been so taken by a bowl of beef broth. A cook better than I certainly would not have given a way to incorporate in this fascinating ingredient is a mushroom-esque western dish.
The picture above is the example of kluwak dish called Rawon.

Cosplay spread out !!!

What is Cosplay?

Cosplay is originated from Japan, its popular in the United States because more people have embraced Cosplay, but its still restricted to positive times.

Which is much different from what happens in Japan, where Cosplay events or Cosplayers, can be seen strutting their stuff & even acting out their characters, on the streets. In the United States Cosplayers or Cosplay events, are chiefly seen at conventions.

Cosplay costumes can go from the simple, to handmade, elaborate or even being bought from a store.
Handmade is usually better, if its your hands that creates the costume, because you get pride in generating, your own costume & if it finally wins at the local, Cosplay conventions competitions, for any Cosplayer that is immense!

But take note, you don't only must make your costume to win, you also must strut your stuff in the competition by acting & speaking, like the Character of the costume.
I assure you, the feeling is high, as you get a immense boost for a regular Cosplayer, which makes it all the more fun.

There is various conventions, held in Japan for Cosplay exhibitions, an example is the Comiket or Comic Market, its held times a year, so you get the chance to show off, your new Manga costume, don't forget the pics, also you get the chance to increase your Anime or Manga memorabilia at the exhibitions.

Cosplayers, that is somebody who wears any of the Anime or Manga gear, can be found anywhere in Japan, because Japan's youths are the main drive of this fashion, so don't be startled when you see Cosplayers on the streets of Japan.

Cosplayers also have their regular hangouts, where you can see em in their numbers, such a place is in Tokyo's Akihabari & Harajuku districts, can get lost in Cosplay world, as there is a lot of cosplay cafes, where you find the waitresses serving in costume.
Also there is some Cosplay parties, which are held in some nightclubs & even parks.

In case you are interested in a Cosplay or any of the events, then you can brave out the conventions in Otakon, Anime Boston, DragonCon or any of the other conventions that comes up yearly in the United States, or better still, come to where Cosplay was invented & rocks, Japan.

Bubbles fusion

When the bubble meets with another, the credit issue is still assembled parts and compromise (humans can learn a lot of bubbles.) Since bubbles always try to minimize the surface bubbles combine to share a common wall. If the bubbles are the same size as the bubbles on the left, the wall will be flat. If the bubbles are different sizes, the smaller bubble, which has always a greater internal pressure, will project into the larger bubble.

Regardless of the relative size of the bubbles meet at a common wall with an angle of 120 degrees. This is easy to see the bubble on the right. All the bubbles come together in half an angle of 120 degrees. Although the arithmetic shows that are not covered by this editorial, to 120 degrees rule always to keep even complex collections such as bubbles of foam.


If you take a plate of transparent glass or plastic separated by about a half inch, soak them in soapy water and then blow bubbles between the plates, you'll have plenty of walls of bubbles. If you look closely you will notice that all the nodes where the bubble walls meet (and there always) form angles of 120 degrees. If your bubbles are of uniform size, you will notice that the cells form hexagons and begins to look a little like the cells of a beehive. Bees, like bubbles, try to be as efficient as possible by the comb. They need to use the maximum possible amount of wax to do the job. Hexagonal cells are the ticket.

Big Country

On a tour of Australia, our guide illustrated the problems of traveling in such vast area. He had been driving down a dirt road looking for a small farm and asked local for directions.
"Continue down this road until you come to an oil drum," the man said. " Turn left and the farm is down that road."
It was 155 kilometres before he reached the oil drum and another 86 to reach the farm.

Coffee comfort addiction ?






It is difficult to classify the coffee because coffee means different things to plenty of people. But most people use caffeine from coffee to lift the spirits & gain some energy. Never can assist individuals who drink coffee only for its taste, without loading on sugar substitutes or sugar & cream. It is a pleasant smell and a hot drink. Surely most people enjoy the heat & strength after dessert in a restaurant. There is much to discover if the coffee is associated with a variety of medical conditions, & most studies show coffee has no actual benefit of specific health outcomes are similar in that the negative effects of coffee consumption.

Some research has suggested that coffee consumption is beneficial in some respects. Coffee may reduce risk of Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, heart disease, diabetes mellitus type, liver cirrhosis, & gout. Some health effects are chiefly due to the caffeine content of coffee, the benefits are present in individuals who drink caffeinated coffee, while others appear to be due to other ingredients. Coffee contains antioxidants that prevent cell destroy.

The coffee has negative health effects associated with it that is closest to its caffeine content. Caffeine causes plenty of health issues, such as sleep disorders & anxiety, increased risk of Parkinson's disease, elevated heart rate & stress, respiratory issues in children, & the caffeine dependence syndrome. You ought to drink caffeinated drinks in moderation. Research has suggested that drinking caffeinated coffee may cause a temporary increase in stiffness of the arterial walls. Coffee may cause constipation, because coffee is a diuretic that may cause people to become dehydrated, the samples in liquid body causes constipation. Excessive consumption of coffee may cause magnesium deficiency or hypomagnesemia.

So coffee is not the health drink, is like a drug. Individuals who do not drink often, it is not likely to go up, cup, when they receive a wish. Better stay away from stuff, & stick to a glass of water & fruit juice.

Reading Activities

In a world that is slowly but surely turning away from books & getting glued to monitors or tv screens, the importance of developing a passion for reading cannot be overlooked. Reading is a habit & ought to be established when the child is comparatively young. What are you able to do to foster this habit?

Enroll your child for reading classes:


There is a lot of well structured after school reading classes that aim to draw the children to books. They help children with diction, idioms & phrases. For young children, these classes can be fun with animated characters & pics. Illustrated picture books, rhymes, daft songs & pretend tales all attract the young child. Use creativity to capture the kid's vivid imagination.

Pique your kid's interest:
If your child has a favourite character, pick a series of books that features this character. For my son, it was Spiderman. Thanks to friendly neighborhood spidey, my son latched on to comics early in his childhood.

Build a home-library:


A skill like reading cannot be learnt in isolation. Do not leave all the hard work to the after school program. Pick up books that you think your child will like. The Web is & a rich resource of reading games that will attract small children to the fine art of reading.

Should You Drink Coffee?

Women who are pregnant, likely to become pregnent or breast feeding should drink no more than two cups of coffee a day to avoid the risk of miscarriage or a jittery breastfed baby. Those with heartburn, anxiety and fibrocystic breast lumps may want to see if cutting back on coffee improves their condition. For most people, however, there's virtually no risk in consuming up to three normal cups a day.

MMORPG

Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games or MMORPGs as they are more often known, are role playing games which bring together immense numbers of players by the net. A defining feature of MMORPGs is that all of them offer a persistent virtual world in which to play. These worlds often support thousands of simultaneous players, all of whom are playing a single character in the game.

What Does This Mean?
In a MMORPG you take control of a character (often known as an avatar) & guide its actions within the game. Most games offer an experience based level technique-a player guides their character through positive tasks, such as killing a monster, & in return their ability to repeat similar tasks increases. This is usually represented by an overall skill level associated to the character, & sub levels representing individual skills.

As the worlds are persistent your skills are saved, meaning that the hard work & time invested in to the game is permanently reflected in your character. For example in case you played a combat orientated game your overall ability to fight may be represented by a Combat Level, this level would increase each time you gained a pre-determined number of experience points, granting more powerful abilities & skills. When you logout of the game everything is recalled so next time you play you can start from where you left off.

Online
As MMORPG's connect thousands of players with the same virtual world central game servers provide a synchronized experience for everybody. This means in case you killed a specific monster then it would not only vanish from your screen, but also from that of all the other players.

Actual time chat is usually available, typed messages can be exhibited to other players in and round your location. Additionally it is common for MMORPG's to permit trade between players as well as combat, duels and team work.

Playing As A Group
A great aspect of playing an MMORPG is that  every game provides a process for players to work together. This can be teaming up to tackle difficult enemies or pooling resources in order to advance the goals of the team. Such groups are known as clans or guilds.

Games Within Games
MMORPGS provide players with lots of different paths to follow and the players of the game literally define the world they play in. This includes lots of items within games being created by the players themselves using gathered resources.

This method is called Crafting, and is a popular alternative to playing a combat orientated character. that dominate physically, crafters are usually rich in terms of in-game assets, selling their goods for game money or other items.

Online or Offline?
Offline games are great for relaxation and delight, but they can not offer the combination of depth and social interaction that MMORPG's provide. Character progression is the essential ingredient letting you concentrate on the aspects of the game you enjoy without worrying about those you don't.

Every character starts with similar levels and skills, but quickly you will personalize your character meaning few others will be exactly like you.

In case you love playing computer games then try an MMORPG. One time you start playing you will seldom look back.

Get the Picture: Protect Your Camera

Travelling with a single lens reflex (SLR) camera ? Consider fitting a filter over the lens - it is much cheaper to replace if it gets scratched. A polarising filter reduces glare on water and glass, and deepens colours for blue, blue skies and cotton wool clouds. Pack a small bean bag instead of a heavy tripod. Use it to wedgethe camera in a fork of a tree or to support a telephoto lens on a wall. Scrunch your camera around to get it level.

Miso Soup

Japanese women have a low risk of breast cancer, and it may be partly due to miso soup. Compared with most American women, they take in nearly 700 times more isoflavones, the cancer-fighting substances prevalent in soy foods. Scientists at the National Cancer Centre of Japan collected data on the diets of 21,852 Japanese women and found that those who ate three or more bowls of miso soup a day had about half the risk of developing breast cancer as those who ate less than one (a bowl is a little less than 1/2 cup). The soup, made from soya bean paste and tofu, is high in salt, so don't over do it. Men can benefit too, since isoflavones may reduce prostate cancer risks.
