Well it's the only first-party Wii game that has been announced but not shown, so yeah...

I've never really seen it as an announced game.  To me it was similar to "the Mario and Zelda teams are working on something".  Very vague and with no details of exactly what is being made and when it will be released.  Miyamoto confirmed that they were working on Pikmin after E3 flopped with pretty much everyone who actually pays attention to it.  He noticed that people were pissed and dropped the Pikmin comment to try to put out the flames.

We're probably going to see some sort of Pikmin product at some point but it might not be Pikmin 3 and we don't know when it's going to be released.  They might not have anything to show yet.  So I wouldn't consider it "officially" announced.

Um, when the creator and director of the project says "We are working on it" that means THEY ARE WORKING ON IT. It may not have a press release, but what's really the difference?

Bill, your such a whore! (Remember, I'm still stalking you.) And must I say, what you just did is just downright disgusting.

One dog lapping up peanut butter off your balls was gross enough (I threw up with laughter), but a whole litter of kittens while you shoot heroin? 

I've seen that Dave Chappelle skit too, but damn...........................

So I've watched 3 episodes of Elfen Lied and I don't know if I like it.

The action is the ****, but everything else is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. I'm watching the dub version (mistake), but that doesn't mean it would be any faster....


Should I keep watching or just give up?

Never got into the Bleach or Naruto games cuz I don't know **** about the anime. Should I still be interested in those games?

I like the new DBZ game (it's pretty badass), but it's more so cuz I know what the hell is going on.

consider this scenario:

Your searching for information on STD's on the internet, and a video link to your friend's mom pops up. You click it and the video starts with her getting railed by 8 german dudes all yelling hilarious german **** like "Oop me asshole!"

I don't think your friend would mind you calling his mom a whore.

Stogi has a very detailed aspiration.  So detailed it probably won't come true.

I don't understand? Isn't it better to have a detailed plan, with small realistic steps, then an overarching ambition with no form of compass?

Plus, I always have believed you can do whatever you put your mind to. Yes there's luck involved, but if your so interested in filming and music, why don't you put all of your energy into it? What is stopping you? Work?

Don't let the rat race of life stop you from living the way you want to. You'll regret it.

P.S. Thank you, Maxi. I hope you achieve your goals as well.

P.S.S. Maybe you'll see me one day with a Nobel Peace Prize. Oh God, I would love that.

As someone from Sudan, I feel it's my obligation to go back and at least try to fix some of the major concerns Sudanese face today.

Health - Sudanese still face diseases that are essentially non-existent in countries abroad. One being Malaria and the other Yellow Fever. These two things could be eradicated if proper hygiene and overall better waste management was introduced, but as of right now, people still discard of human waste by shitting in a hole and discard of dirty water by tossing it out on the sun-baked "streets". A proper water and waste management system is vital to any country wanting to be first world. This needs to change.

Energy - Sudanese electricity is probably one of the worst managed in the world. You can't rely on it, so food that is bought that day must be eaten that day. Sudan has a lot of natural resources, but it's the infrastructure that is fleeting. Part of the infrastructure most also use renewable resources that will slash the outrage costs of electricity today. Over the past 10 years it has been getting better, but it still needs to fundamentally change.

Roads - Sudan has some of the worst roads ever. There is rarely any pavement. Most roads are simply the ground. People have trouble traveling long distances because of this. And it's also why people rarely own cars and also another reason why public transportation is so bad. Most importantly, businesses need roads to transport goods. Roads and energy together could make for a huge economical boom. This needs to change.

Farms - People who are considered rich own farms. Even though Sudan is the biggest country in Africa, we still import wheat and grain. Proper water management is needed so farmers can arrogate their crops and finally put a back bone into the national economy.

I have a pretty clear plan on how to fix these problems, but it's all about money. I'm going to college, but I may start my own business before I graduate. I already have a business plan and the proper alliances to get it off the ground, I just need money.

Once my business is off the ground though, it'll only be a matter of years before I turn it over to someone I trust and start my own parent corporation that will either invest, or use my money to literally build some ideas I have just sitting here. Times change though, so I know I'll have to keep ahead of the curve in terms of ideas; but all it takes is that one big idea to get onto the national scene. Afterwords, I'll sprout sister companies, and angel investors.

Once my corporation starts to take hold and finds footing in the national market, this is when I'll call on a select few of my relationships I've created as well as my three brothers and start handling business in other parts of the world including Japan, China, Europe, and especially South America. I have no idea what I'll invest in just yet, but just like Donald, it's going to be varied.

Finally, once my corporation is settled in the international world, I'll turn it into a not-for-profit and use all the resources, partnerships, and activists that I can find to help rebuild Sudan; from the bottom up. Building will be tough and take a long time, but it'll have the eyes of the world watching ever step. Hope and praise will flood into Sudan. People will finally be happier.

Once everything is built and money starts flooding back into the system; Sudan will become the jewel of Africa. I'll immediately start construction on "The Tower of Sudan" which will be located right where the blue and white Nile meet. It'll be glorious; gorgeous; a shining example of the new coming out of the old; The Tower of Sudan. From there, I'll invest in Sudan. New business projects of every kind will take shape, allowing people to find jobs in whatever field they so choose. I'll call on other African countries to follow suit and point at the economic success of Sudan. "Build from the bottom up" I'll say, campaigning in other countries for those that don't have a voice. Hopefully, with some luck, the governments will heed my words.

This is where I really hope I can make a difference. If they truly listen, after the initial industrial phase, African countries will become more self dependent and start truly making markets that the international world will call "viable". That's when I'll try to start AFTA (African Free Trade Association). This will help stop the trickling of resources to other countries that are not African by making trading with other African nations more lucrative. This will boost the trade within Africa and finally let companies and investors within Africa thrive. This would in turn boost Africa's entire GDP and finally let Africa as a continent come together after so many years of strife and start building itself as a whole (the only way it can work). If money then comes into Africa from the world abroad, there will be no more need for such harsh unethical trade conglomerates that allow blood diamonds to be so influential. 


After trying to plant the seed of growth within the heart of Africa, I will retire; traveling all over the world and doing what I love: listening to new music, making music, meeting new people, and finding more to life than myself.

Some where in there, I hope to find a women who is as passionate and as free-thinking as myself and maybe start a family and have some children.

True. On one hand particle science as we know it will literally crumple at the foundation and make us go back and rethink everything; on the other hand LHC will be a business debacle basically stall and maybe even discontinue truly expensive science.

But there are already things in place that the LHC has formed that will survive no matter what the outcome. For instance, the scientific network of computers from all over the globe, connected and interactive, has allowed scientists to communicate better than ever before.

This network shouldn't be taken lightly. It has never existed so well.

BUMP

I just can't keep myself away from LHC. It's too damned interesting.


Here's a list of the best and worst things that could happen this year.

http://www.newscientist.com/blog/shortsharpscience/2008/09/lhc-top-5-best-and-worst-things-that.html

What's most interesting is being able to prove that wormholes exist. When the particles eventually collide at higher and higher energies, and after looking through the data, if we find that some of the subatomic particles have gone missing without a trace, it could prove that they "slipped" through spacetime as we know it. If we prove there are holes in spacetime, that is literally the first step towards time-travel.

What's even more fascinating is that future civilizations could literally pinpoint the time where we broke through spacetime for the first time in human history, and come pay us a visit.
