And a favourite I spotted, my pal Terrell - that almost rhymes :P

dubFrequency posted up the video from the LA release, so you can click here to watch that via imeem.

sidenote: high five to Cudi w/ those kicks..

If you watched the URB interview catching up with Hollywood Holt and Million $ Mano, you would've heard the two talk about their previous experience competing for an audience with DJ AM at LA's Cinespace, by the looks of the crowd and the end result - see Holt's face above lol this time round went a lot better.

Good ol' VIMBY has eyes everywhere; the crew were at the Chicago show at Evil Olive to catch up with both Kid Cudi and the local lad Holt, catch footage and talk about the new school movement - here comes the link..

The best time was when I got over the fear of the height(s) the swing propels you to and the danger of flying off lmao and actually wanted to go as high as this boy in the photo.. but then I took a new turn and decided that going that high freaked me out too much. Plus at least down here anyway, the metal that holds the swings on squeaks and the entire frame shakes/lifts slightly off the ground each time you go in the air. Today, I can hardly bring myself to even watch others on swings.. I yearn to love them though lol..

Secondly, I hated clowns. I hated clowns yet somehow decided I wanted my Dad to take me to the Weber Bros Circus only to end up terrified and crying ie. we had to leave. Rational right. Actually I was afraid of anyone dressed up in a costume.. because I now remember being frozen with fright behind my Mum's legs if one of those people tried to approach me with their miming and what have you at the annual Easter Show.

All this came flooding back to me so I thought I would share what scared me to death as a child :P I'm sure there'll be a part two of this because it didn't end there lol.

comigo só funciona se não falarem em RAW nem em bytes, ok?

Pinhole Camera Fashioned From 150 Year-Old Skull

"French photographer JR has launched nearly five urban photography exhibits recently in five different countries. Each exhibit has had one thing in common: the local people, often those without a public identity, are given a face to match their environment.

The most notable recent project, Women Are Heroes, occupies nearly the entire facade of one of largest the favelas in Rio, where the gap between rich and poor is larger than anywhere else in the world. The photographs are emblazoned across the front walls on the hill, and capture the women of Rio who are victims of police violence in the favela. 

The second project in Spain, Los Surcos De La Ciudad, combines photographs of some of the oldest residents with the facades of the city's oldest buildings, melding the wrinkles and cracks of the subjects with their crumbling surroundings."

e tu, gaja 2xEu? >:>

Here's some important words:

"I can verify that John has an infamous reputation for being a hot head. He has a quick and explosive temper that many have experienced first hand. Folks, quite honestly that is not the finger I want next to that red button.

It is also disappointing to see him take on and support Bush’s war in Iraq, even stating we might be there for another 100 years. For me, John represents the entrenched and bankrupt policies of Washington-as-usual. The past 7 years have proven to be disastrous for our country. And I believe John’s views on war, foreign policy, economics, environment, health care, education, national infrastructure and other important areas are much the same as those of the Bush administration."

P.S. John McCain graduated 5th from the bottom of an 800-man graduating class. That's dumber than Bush!

This list is not the final one, and is a work in progress, but the essentials should get through.

Mainly looking at Playing to win, multilayer balance and single player games. There is lots to find out from Sirlin, and I respect quite a lot of his ideas, although his ideas are skewed from a SF2 perspective I fear (and mine will be from a Plaformer/RPG background with a very healthy respect for fighters).

Trigger Happy

http://stevenpoole.net/trigger-happy/

One of the best books about gaming I've read, a brief history, look at design, narrative, lots of cool stuff there, again some ideas I don't agree with and Tomb Raider gets a little too much praise I think, but given the time thats fair enough.

Playing

NES/Master System Generation

Not a lot here that needs mentioning that wasn't either out done or ported a lot of times later, but....

Ninja Gaiden, any, the Master system version is different to the nes ones btw.
Wonderboy 3, possibly the least known title on the list, but a great platform adventure that possibly paved the way for Castlevania Symphony of the night.
Megaman, any, I REALLY don't care
Bubble Bobble

Snes/Megadrive (Genesis) Generation

The 'golden age' of gaming, it has most of the 'classics' people refer to, but overall it's not golden for the reasons many claim it to be, but it does have a lot of important games.

Chrono Trigger, one of the best games it has to offer.
Final Fantasy 6, sure 4 and 5 were great, but I think 6 is a little more important.
Super Metroid, exploration, cool world, its really cool.
Secret of mana, cool RPG, everyone loves it, possibly more then it needs, but it is loved.
Megaman X (any), Megaman games fundamentally never did change, but somehow the games actually did evolve, so it is nice to look at the whole series.
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the past. The start of the modern zelda, and possibly the earliest now seriously playable one.
Super Mario World, great platformer, shaped to generation really.

Street Fighter 2, a classic fighter that shaped capcom forever.

Sonic The Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles, a great paltformer of a different breed to Super Mario World.
Gunstar Heroes, great run 'n' gun game, Cartoon Contra and the start of Treasure.
Streets of Rage 2, quite possibly one of the best beat 'em ups ever, probably not, but possibly.

PSX/Saturn/N64 Generation

NiGHTs into Dream, hard to explain, easy to play.
Virtua Fighter 2, number doesn't really matter,  just play one.

Final Fantasy 7, you do have to play it, just to know that it isn't as good as everyone says, but it well paced.
Final Fantasy 9, my personal favourite FF
Chrono Cross, got rid of a lot of RPG mechanics that aren't that great, unfortunately it sits in the shadow of it's older brother Chrono Trigger.
Resident Evil 2, I suppose any would do, but 2 is quite good and as good as any to start with.
Megaman Legends, I just add the megaman games because they are ALWAYS there, and it's one of the earlier games that used cell shading.
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, yeah THPS 3 and 4 a gen later are better, but this was a pretty important title that anyone can play.
Metal Gear Solid, classic in more ways then a single line could ever try to say.
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the first metrovania and fun ride that was well done, if a little easy.

Legend of Zelda Ocarina of time AND Maljora's Mask. Yup I want you to have played both, both are classics and a good example that the game engine doesn't define a game, its the content, as OoT and MM are wildly different to eachother, but use the game gameplay engine (well, not the EXACT engine, but very simmilar ones)
Super Smash Brothers, a great party fighter, simple.
A Rareware platformer, I don't care what you pick, they all are of simmilar quality
Perfect Dark/Golden eye, either or, Perfect dark ranks higher for me.

Well, thats it for that list for now, handhelds come later, and the PS2 gen I need to play more of to comment fairly on

Especialmente no litoral (de Setúbal a Coimbra), os Círios são confrarias populares que anualmente se deslocam a um santuário (por vezes afastado) em cumprimento de uma “promessa antiga” que a aldeia ou povoação teria feito em tempos idos (míticos). Esses habitantes que ciclicamente se dirigem ao velho local de culto constituem uma delegação da povoação e cumprem a “promessa antiga” em nome de todos. Transportam geralmente consigo a imagem religiosa que veneram, bem como o guião e as bandeiras onde constam o nome da povoação e o do santuário. O Círio possui ainda outros traços identificadores (nem sempre figurando conjuntamente), como o ritual das três voltas ao templo; as arrematações (de bandeiras e de fogaças); as procissões (algumas sem a presença do pároco); os anjos que cantam as loas; a lavagem simbólica na “fonte santa”; a eleição (garantida com um ano de antecedência) de juízes, festeiros, mordomos ou comissões que, segundo regras de outrora, se responsabilizam pela continuidade do culto; os ex-votos; os “Registos”; os festins alimentares; os gaiteiros; a dança; etc.
O Círio é um produto da religião popular alheio à Igreja Católica e pode ser de origem arcaica e tribal. Os Círios do santuário de Nossa Senhora da Atalaia de que há notícias desde o século XVI (remetendo algumas delas para períodos muito anteriores), estão ainda activos, impondo-se à indiferença ou reprovação do clero, e constituem, num meio grandemente afastado do catolicismo, um caso paradigmático de autonomia religiosa e de continuidade da cultura ancestral.

Foi ontem. e o que eu disparei!!! :DDDDD
