Thiruvananthapuram, Nov. 18: Holding that there is no ‘magic’ in the huge success of the globally-acclaimed ‘Icelandic Model’ in addressing drug abuse, a lead campaigner from the European country said what is vital is to take up activities in a comprehensive and sustained mode.
“It is important for nations is to take up intense long-term, consistent and comprehensive prevention activities to snuff out the drug menace”, said Ms. Margret Lilja Gudmundsdottir, Chief Knowledge Officer, Planet Youth-Iceland, in her presentation at the International Forum on ‘Children Matter-Right to a Drug-Free Childhood’ here.
The ‘Icelandic Model’ is not just a model but a methodology and a way of communication. It shows that prevention should not end with one campaign but it should be more like a quiet revolution, she said.
The three-day meet, which saw convergence of top voices of anti-drug campaign from across the world to share their insights and perspectives, was organised by Fourth Wave Foundation in partnership with United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and World Federation Against Drugs (WFAD).
Apart from evidence-based and community-based programmes, the most beautiful thing about the ‘Icelandic Model’ is creating and maintaining a dialogue between research, policy and practice, Ms Margret Lilja Gudmundsdottir said.
The actions included activities related to parental watch, at community level and national level, she said.
“At community level, formal and structured leisure time activities were designed for youth. Intense media campaigns aimed at discouraging adolescent alcohol use and smoking were also conducted,” she added.
Ms. Monica Barzanti, Head of International Relations, Community San Patrignano-Italy, speaking on ‘Understanding the needs of children whose primary caregivers use drugs,’ said according to WHO data released in September 2022, around 300 million children aged between 2 and 4 suffer some sort of abuse at the hands of parents and caregivers.
Noting that children’s drug abuse-related issues have to be addressed in a holistic way, she said child protection services are yet to be fully equipped across the world and we have to break the cycle of poverty and social exclusion across generations.
Mr Carlton Hall, President and CEO, Carlton Hall Consultancy-US, said substance use prevention is about identifying the most vulnerable in the population and the environment that makes them vulnerable across the lifespan.
In a panel session on ‘Need for prevention protocol for drug supply and demand reduction,’Ms Priyanka G, IAS, Director, Department of Women and Child Development, Government of Kerala, said besides addressing the root cause of drug addiction, a proper protocol needs to be established to identify the origin of supply of drugs.
Lauding the ‘Project VENDA’ initiative, Mr Richard Antony, India Location Leader, EYGDS-India, said preventive education is the right step in the efforts of reducing substance abuse.
Calling for making school curriculum more robust, Dr Dharav Shah, Director, Ugravedan Foundation-India, said strategies for reducing demand of drugs include empowerment of students and youth with knowledge and life skills and use of power of social media for effective counter marketing.

The study, published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said emergency room visits rose 60 percent in the past decade.
Officials said the higher numbers is not because there are more injuries. It's because parents and coaches are more careful about getting head injuries treated.
Riding bikes and playing football were the leading causes of traumatic brain injuries.
There were nearly 250,000 brain injury hospital visits in 2009, which is up from about 153,000 in 2001.

This past Sunday I realized that I had all the ingredients I needed to try out a new recipe that I had flagged. The recipe is the second that I’ve attempted from the Gluten-Free Vegan Comfort Food recipe book that I first introduced in my peach & blueberry smoothie post.
I know what you’re thinking: Are you vegan now? … No. However:
- I’m interested in learning about vegan cuisine, and
- I had planned on using it to attempt recipes for my friend who blogs at Am I Vegan Now? before she decided to move to the opposite side of the country.
(Sharon, if you’re reading this: I totally would have surprised you with these had we been living in the same city. If you try these, think “Supreeze!” as you imagine me gifting them to you).
There were three things that drew me to this recipe:
- Most importantly: Chocolate
- Chia seeds
I have been in love with the combination of chocolate and cardamom ever since I first had a bite of this Polish chocolate bar:
I had discovered these bars at a specialty food store several years back. Apparently they would only stock the bars around the holidays because they claimed that it wasn’t worth the cost of importing the bars (from Poland) regularly throughout the year. Considering this, whenever my guy would ask what I wanted for Christmas, I would respond saying that all I wanted was a box of these bars to keep me going all year long.
The same year that I went gluten-free, he stocked up on these chocolate bars and stuffed them in my stocking. Sadly, I discovered that these delicious bars had a ‘May Contain’ statement for wheat. At first, I decided to take my chances and tried a piece. And I can confirm that the ‘May Contain’ statement was valid … and I have not indulged in such deliciousness since that last bite 😦
As for the chia, I explained in my naturopath post, that my “Quack” had recommended I introduce chia seeds into my diet to increase my Omega Fatty Acids
… Just curious: hands-up if you sung “Cha-Cha-Cha-Chia” as you read the word chia?? I sing it every time I pull the package out of our pantry 😀
So, when I saw the combination of chocolate, cardamom and chia I had to try this recipe out! 🙂
Chocolate Power Balls
Makes about 16 Balls (my attempt yielded 20)
1 cup walnuts
1 cup cashews
1 cup pitted and chopped Medjool dates
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 tablespoon flax seeds
1 tablespoon pure vanilla
1/2 cup Enjoy Life Foods vegan chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cardamom (I opted for the 1/4)
1 tablespoon of water or orange juice
- Place nuts and dates in a food processor and pulse until ground. Add the rest if the ingredients and whirl until the mixture begins to form a ball.
(I don’t have a food processor, so I used my blender. I threw in all the ingredients as it directed but I started to get a perimeter of nicely chopped nuts and dates, but would jam up under the blade preventing the remainder from chopping. As a result, I had to take the blender jar off several times in order to shake and stir-up the contents. When I do this recipe again, I’d use smaller amounts in the blender and then transfer it to another bowl in order to chop the rest. I also think that the intent was for the chocolate chips to be grounded into more of a powder so that I would more easily disperse … but because there was so much volume to the recipe, very few of the chocolate chips would hit the blade. At first I thought that this was a downfall of how I had executed the recipe, but after the fact I realized that I quite like having the full chocolate chips intact. I thought I would point this fact out for anyone who might want to try out this recipe).
- Remove the mixture from the food processor and put in a large bowl. Spread some waxed paper on a cookie sheet and with clean hands, form small balls (about tablespoon-size) and place them on the cookie sheet. Place in the refrigerator for about an hour to harden.
We love these! The recipe recommended that you keep the balls in the refrigerator and consume within one week. Considering that the recipe yielded 20 balls that were made on Sunday afternoon, and it’s now only Tuesday evening and there’s only 3 left …. I don’t think that will be an issue 😉
Let me know what you think if you try out this recipe!

VOICES OF THE NIGHT
The first writing of Mr. Longfellow which found its way into print was The Battle of Lovell's Pond, four verses, published in the Portland Gazette when he was thirteen years of age. When he was a student in Bowdoin College he also contributed poems to a periodical journal, and shortly after graduation he wrote poems for an annual, The Atlantic Souvenir. A few prose sketches appeared during this period, but it may be said that previous to his first journey to Europe, that is, until he was nineteen years of age, whatever expression he sought was most naturally in the poetic form. His travel and study abroad gave him pause in this regard. His expectation of a professorship and his own intellectual awakening led him to throw himself into the study of modern languages and literature, and shortly before his return home after a three years' absence he could write : “My poetic career is finished. Since I left America I have hardly put two lines together. His note-book and his letters indicate that his schemes for literary production looked distinctly to prose; and during the next ten years he gave himself, with a single exception, to the prose form. . In this time he produced Outre-Mer, Hyperion,
and almost the entire bulk of the critical and literary work of which he gave a selection in DriftWood. The exception was a notable and interesting
His introduction to other modern languages and literatures than the English was scarcely made before he began to render the verse which delighted him into corresponding forms in English; and while, after his return to America, he was contributing prose papers to the reviews and journals, he was constantly illustrating his criticism by specimens of translation, and publishing also independent renderings of current foreign poetic literature. His first book, aside from school-manuals, was his translation of Coplas de Manrique, and his prose volumes were lighted by lyrics in which his own poetic genius was a transparent medium for the beauty of the originals.
It was when he was in the flush of his intellectual manhood, established in what promised to be a permanent position in Harvard College, and with his days of wandering over, that he turned again to poetry. He was still a student, but the urgency of the student - mood was passed; the riches of human thought had become in a measure his possession; his personal experience had been enlarged and deepened ; he no longer saw prin

So we may
The conclusion of one period of his intellectual growth, as instanced in the writing of Hyperion, melts into the beginning of a new period, which is instanced by the several Psalms, so called by himself, written and published at the end of 1838 and during 1839. In this latter year, a few months after the appearance of Hyperion, Mr. Longfellow gathered these recent poems, with those belonging to earlier stages, into a volume to which he gave the title Voices of the Night. The publication seems to have been a sudden thought coming to him in the exhilaration of his busy life. He writes in his diary, under date of September 11th, 1839: “I have taken to the Greek poets again, and mean to devote one hour every morning to them. Began to-day with Anacreon. What exquisite language ! Why did I ever forget my Greek ?” and the next day he notes: “I mean to publish a volume of poems, under the title of Voices of the Night. As old Michael Drayton says, —
'I will; yea, and I may!
He was not yet, indeed, so conscious of his destiny, that he could not outline, a few days later, a plan of literary work which embraced a history of English poetry, a novel, a series of sketches, and only one poem which may have been a paraphrase of Scandinavian verse. But it is to be noted that after the publication of Voices of the Night the succession of volumes of poetry was broken only

Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Moonbow and Stars at Yosemite Falls” by Tony Rowell. Location: Yosemite National Park, California.
“Moonbows in Yosemite form only in the spring and early summer around the time of the full moon when water flows are abundant during cloudless nights,” writes Rowell. “On May 11, 2017, I drove to Yosemite in hopes of capturing a moonbow in the mist of Yosemite Falls. I set up my Nikon D800 at sunset and was beginning to get nervous when many clouds formed. After three hours of taking in the grandeur of Yosemite Valley, my patience paid off just before midnight when the clouds cleared up and the elusive Lunar Rainbow appeared.”

|Posted: Sun Mar 30, 2003 1:59 am Post subject: Mayonesa -- Mayonnaise
|On our first visit to Madrid, we had the usual (unnecessary) fears about the food and water. We were students and cheapos, so the first restaurant we chose was in a low rent district. Because we weren't feeling terribly secure about the food, we decided to order things that struck as as very safe choices, like ensalada rusa (potato salad). When it arrived at the table, however, we stared with wide eyes: it was GREEN and smelled very strange! We assumed it was bad and wrote home about the terrible potato salad, asking how anyone could ruin such a simple dish.
A while later we realized that the dressing on it had been mayonaise made with olive oil. Soon green ensalada rusa was one of our favorite dishes. A friend, Milagros, taught me how to make this mayonesa.
1 whole egg (room temperature)
juice of 1/2 lemon (can substitute bottled, if necessary)
1/8 tsp ground mustard
1/2 cup olive oil
salt to taste
We used a stick blender to make this, although it might be possible to use a regular blender or an egg beater.
Put the egg, lemon juice, ground mustard, salt, and a bit of the olive oil in the blender cup. Pop the yoke and blend it all together by hand before running the blender.
Run the blender for about 20 seconds. Stop, add the rest of the oil, and stir the mixture by hand again. Then blend with the machine again for about 35 seconds or until the the mayonnaise is firm.
Adjust the salt, lemon, and ground mustard, if necessary.
Refrigerate. This won't keep nearly as long as commercial mayonnaise, but it tastes a whole lot better.

gy benefits) and falling off rapidly thereafter. Accordingly, perspectives shaping state responsiveness to the energy needs of vulnerable populations are subject to short-term exigencies and seldom entail major resource commitments targeting underlying conditions (e.g., defective housing stock). The most telling indicator of priorities is revealed by budgets detailing dollar amounts projected for the state's 1984-85 energy assistance program activity: energy assistance, $36 million; administrative overhead, $4.3 million; and weatherization, $3 million. Of course, emergencies require attention, but the major lesson to be learned once again from the project is this: energy policy is social policy. Energy policy analyses that focus exclusively on techno-economic features overlook the institutional matrix that imbeds energy assistance and other social welfare programs. Comparative research on the organization of energy assistance programs in the United States and other industrialized nations could contribute to our understanding of the link between social welfare programs and institutionalized social inequality (cf. Bradshaw and Hutton 1983).

The language: As mentioned, the majority of our codebase is in Clojure. We’re looking for accomplished Clojure programmers – be it in a professional setting, or open-source projects. If you’re just getting started with Clojure, that is OK too, as long as you also have experience with other languages such as Haskell, Erlang, an ML, or a Scheme/Lisp, or Prolog. Significant Ruby or Python experience (the languages, not just Rails or equivalent) might be OK also.
The bottom line is that we’re looking for smart engineers who have taken the trouble to learn/use these other languages because they’re unsatisfied with the popular ones.
Bottom-up: You should be able to think in a meta manner. You should understand what it means to create a system from the bottom-up… Runa is driven by several domain-specific languages – all the way from analytics through to what an end consumer sees on a merchant website. You need to be able to think in layers and abstractions, and understand that building up complexity by composing simpler pieces is the natural way to grow software.
Distributed systems: Runa is a complex system – with a lot of moving parts. Such a distributed system comes with globs of incidental complexity. We need to minimize this complexity, but also deal with it effectively. You should have experience with such systems, and have battle-scars that will help avoid mistakes and improve the ability to debug the system, increase testability, maintainability, and so on. You should be familiar with architecture patterns of distributed systems.
Big data: We collect a lot of data. A lot. And we need to quickly analyze all that data to extract insights and to create reports on the behavior of visitors vis a vis dozens of parameters. If you have experience wrangling large volumes of data, we want you!
Performance: As you can imagine, the Runa SaaS is extremely time-sensitive, since it needs to respond to end-users in real-time, as they browse merchant sites. You should know how to profile and optimize large systems. Experience with various tools is a plus.
Scaling: Again, Runa is a SaaS that services online merchants. Each time we add a client, we have to handle all their traffic. Each page on a merchant website may call our servers multiple times. We need to be able to scale the system up, and provide predictable and reliable throughput under loaded conditions. We should be able to determine how much capacity is needed at various points in the system. We need to be fault-tolerant and reliable (and never negatively impact a client website). Experience with scaling large systems is a plus, as is experience with various tools.
General engineering: We’re a small engineering team and we want to keep it as small as we can. Everyone needs to play multiple roles. You should be ready to roll up your sleeves and jump in to handle whatever comes up. It isn’t all about Clojure – it’s about getting things done.
Agile/Lean: We use Mingle to drive our development process. You should be familiar with various agile/lean methodologies. We are fanatics about automated testing so you should have extensive experience with various testing tools/frameworks/philosophies and understand designing for testability.
Experience/education: You should have at least 6 years of software development experience, most of them spent dealing with issues in the fields above. A degree in electrical engineering or computer science (or equivalent) is required.
FPS: Experience with Quake, Counter Strike, or any such game is a real bonus.
Want to prove that traditional models of software development are lacking? That more can be done with less? Join the elite engineering team at Runa!

(Reuters) - The U.S. military believes that an unarmed American drone reported lost near Libya's capital last month was in fact shot down by Russian air defenses and it is demanding the return of the aircraft's wreckage, U.S. Africa Command says.
Such a shootdown would underscore Moscow's increasingly muscular role in the energy-rich nation, where Russian mercenaries are reportedly intervening on behalf of east Libya-based commander Khalifa Haftar in Libya's civil war.

Daniel Ricciardo's decision to leave Red Bull and join Renault F1 was rooted in many factors, one of which was likely the sizeable salary increase the Aussie will enjoy from next year.
The uncertainty surrounding Red Bull's performance in 2019 following its switch to Honda power and perhaps the feeling of living in the shadow of his team mate Max Verstappen, compelled Ricciardo to at least consider an offer from Renault.
According to Renault's Cyril Abiteboul, negotiations between the driver and the French team had been ongoing for some time, but Ricciardo's hefty salary demands required a big stamp of approval from Renault CEO Carlos Ghosn.
The green light was finally given on Thursday, and reports from the Daily Express claim that Ricciardo's pay grade will reach the $35 million level in 2019.
That’s rumored to be at least three times his current annual Red Bull Racing salary!
The number likely also puts Ricciardo among Formula 1's top three earners, with Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel still sitting at the top of the pyramid in terms of driver salaries.


The Philadelphia Eagles have a new coach, new regime, and a new focus on offense.
The Star Ledger is reporting that LeSean McCoy will now be the focus of the Eagles offense, after 14 years of pass happy, throw first offense from Andy Reid.
“McCoy could be very dangerous in that offense,’’ a NFC personnel man said. “I expect him to be the focus. I imagine he’ll be the guy defenses are going to be focused on.’’
Chip Kelly is going to run the ball down teams throats, and they better be prepared. Whether the quarterback is Michael Vick or Nick Foles, they will feel comfortable knowing defenses will have to focus on McCoy, Bryce Brown, and Felix Jones.

MetadataShow full item record
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigatethecontributors associated with having a home delivery after antenatal hospital care visits in women of reproductive age in Narok South Sub-County, Kenya. Materials andMethods: Across-sectional survey of 323 women who delivered at home within the last two years yet attended antenatal care clinics was carried out. The survey was conducted in Narok south sub-county, and respondents were picked randomly from all the wards.Data was collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire; exploration of variables was done using a chi-squire test.Using odd ratio with95% confidence interval with p<0.05 taken as a statistically significant association.Results: The One way ANOVA analysisindicated thatthere was a significant influence on source of income and home delivery (F=62.022, P=0.0001. All three factors (age, education, distance) had a significant positive relationship with the number of children delivered at home(r =0.574, 0.677 and 0.534 respectively). Using Pearson correlation analysis, the findings revealed that the distance to the health facility significantly influenced home delivery(r=0.53, P=0.0001).On assessing the level of knowledge associated with home delivery, many mothers were aware of bleeding and perinea tears as complications. Given opportunity majority would not deliver at home again (77.4%). Those who had no emergency backup plan were96.3% and those who stated that they would deliver at home again, had no emergency backup plan. In contrast, women who had emergency backup plans would not deliver at home again (Fishers' exact test = 3.628, P = 0.043). Awareness of the risk factors stated 95.0% were aware of the risk of placenta praevia and bleeding problems, and there was no significant difference in the number of women aware of the danger signs to those not familiar (x2 value 30000,p-value 0.224). Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study recommended thatthe County Education officers in liaison with social development officers should promote adult formal education to improve literacy levels, which will go a long way in influencing reproductive health decisions.County health management team, together with the reproductive health section shouldnetwork with other relevant stakeholders to increase sensitization on utilization of hospital-based deliveries.

Arleana Frost. Drawing Online. September 29th , 2019.
If you wish to earn money on the internet you have to struggle hard. Making money on the internet is not a simple thing to do. The more friends you’ve got the more you’ll earn money. Taking away the longing and craving developed within a body takes a good deal of time.

Whether you research the deep history of how it all began, or you merely wish to acquire good at making use of a can of paint, you will see that there’s an excellent glory to this that it is possible to learn.
However pretty a dress or design is, if it is put on a’’ dumpy’’ figure, it is going to not have any style whatever. If you’ve got many distinctive ideas you want to convey, categorize them into three or four crucial points. You ought to have some concept of how big a shed it will take to meet your requirements. Take a look around your home and see whether there are any items that you would love to draw. Decide you’re going to be positive. For the couple who want a really distinctive style for their wedding, the invitations are a great place to get started.
Hands and feet are definitely the most complex pieces of your anatomy and are easily available subject issue. Drawing an adult face is difficult enough, baby faces are so a lot more difficult. Most important point to remember while drawing a cartoon head is the form of the head. There’s equally as much to understand about drawing the body.

Cars are boring, and kids have lots of energy. The majority of the times you will realize that they’re looking a role model in actual life. Pictures are normally the best ways to acquire new ideas, though you may see something in a friend’s or acquaintance’s house that provides you inspiration. That way you will have all your drawings compiled in one location, and it’ll be simpler to find the progress you make over time. So there’s an ideal reason to prevent drawing. Also, whoever has tried to write text by using their finger on an iPad touch screen knows that it’s an imperfect experience.

How to Plant Yellow Root
Yellow root (Xanthorrhiza simplicissima), a member of the buttercup family, was used as a tea by the American Indians to cure a variety of symptoms ranging from stomach disorders to jaundice, sore throats and fevers. It is also useful as a dye. Sticks of the root are sometimes chewed as a herbal remedy to help quit smoking. The plant draws its name from the brilliant yellow inner bark and root system. This deciduous shrub grows as a ground cover, approximately 1 to 3 feet tall. The plant is colorful, with bright green leaves that turn yellow or orange in the fall. In the spring, it is covered with purple to chocolate brown blooms. Attractive to birds, wildlife and humans, it is suitable for planting in U.S. Department of Agriculture hardiness zones 3 to 9.
Plant yellow root in full to partial sun in the spring or fall. Choose a location with well-drained soil. If the area has drainage problems, plant the shrub on a mound or raised bed. Spread the plants 18 to 24 inches apart to establish a groundcover.
Dig a hole deep enough to accommodate the yellow root ball and twice as wide. Mix the removed soil with compost or well-rotted manure.
Place the yellow root shrub in the hole and back fill with the amended soil, making sure that the plant remains at the same level that it was growing in the container. Tamp the soil down around the plant.
Water the yellow root shrub immediately after planting and again once or twice a week until it is well established. Keep the soil moist, but not wet.
Apply a 2- to 3-inch layer of organic mulch under and around the plant.
Fertilize the shrubs with a general purpose fertilizer once new growth appears.

You would think Bill Cosby has nothing to say or would refuse to comment about everything that has been happening lately, but he just had his first interview in more than two years
According to Fox News the 79-year-old comedian, whose entire legacy has been completely tarnished, said he did not want to take the stand in his upcoming sexual assault trial. He allegedly also made suggestions that some of the accusations against him are motivated by racism.
He is not the only one who seems to think so either. Ensa Cosby, his daughter, is in full support of this and also released an audio statement in which she describes her father as a “visionary” and claims the allegations against him have been “one-sided”.
I strongly believe my father is innocent of the crimes alleged against him, and I believe that racism has played a big role in all aspects of this scandal,” she said in the audio statement.
This is very fitting since the jury selection for the Cosby trial is about to go down sometime next week.
Cosby reportedly said he did not anticipate he would take the stand at his trial, which is set to begin this summer.
“No, I do not,” he answered when asked by Smerconish if he thought he would take the stand on the unedited chat aired during The Michael Smerconish Program on the POTUS (Politics Of The United States).
When responding to the audio clips that were released by his daughters Esna and Erinn to a suggestion that the more than 50 women accusing him of drugging them, sexually assaulting them or both could be motivated, in part, by racism the disgraced 79-year-old responded by saying: “Could be. Could be.”
“I can’t say anything, but there are certain things that I look at, and I apply to the situation. There are so many tentacles. So many different – ‘nefarious’ is a great word. And I just truly believe that some of it may very well be that,” Cosby reportedly stated during the interview.
He did, however, also acknowledge, when prompted by Smerconish, that his accusers span all races. So we are not sure what Cosby is actually trying to say, but what he did say was: “It’s not all, not every. But I do think that there is some [racism].”

There’s a popular analogy that likens the act of waiting for buses to other everyday occurrences in life: around this time every year we’re all inevitably subjected to the same situation as we were last year, and the year before that, and so on. Picture the scene: you’ve endured summer months of crippling boredom, either prodding half-heartedly at the games you think you really ought to finish or scouring your local games emporium for the faintest whiff of anything even remotely decent to play.
Meanwhile the nights slowly draw in, a chill creeps ever closer and supermarkets begins to surreptitiously sneak advent calendars onto their shelves. As if by magic, you find yourself bombarded with more games than you could possibly know what to do with. Unless you’re in the lucky position of being a self-made millionaire it’s highly unlikely that you possess either the time or the money to feasibly be able to play everything that catches your eye, and the irony cruelly hits you like a ton of bricks.
The tail end of the year — most notably November, although October and December are usually no slouches either — has always presented gamers with an over-abundance of games to play. 2011 is no different, with almost every major publisher battling it out during the same eight to ten-week period as they release their biggest hits in the hope that they’ll reap the rewards of the lucrative Christmas market. In fact not long ago, on the 18th of November, ten different high-profile games were released across all formats. In Europe alone, Wii and 3DS owners alone were able to pick up two highly anticipated first-party blockbuster titles, Super Mario 3D Land and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword — two must-play games, we think you’ll agree — along with Warner Bros.’ Lego Harry Potter: Years 5-7 and EA’s Need For Speed: The Run. Now, if you wanted to pick up each title in the UK at retail, you’d be looking at throwing down around £155 on the counter. And that’s if you were only to buy one version of each game. Should you decide that you want the Wii and 3DS versions of Need For Speed and Lego Harry Potter — because you just couldn’t live without street racing and magic building blocks while commuting to work or sitting on the toilet — then you can expect to add around an extra £70 to that. That’s £255 on just one day’s worth of releases.
A mere week after the above deluge of software, Kirby’s Adventure Wii, Tales of the Abyss, Sonic Generations and Rayman Origins all dropped on the same day, with Super Pokémon Rumble and Mario Kart 7 following — again — a mere week after those titles. With Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, Cave Story 3D (in Europe) and numerous other games also peppered throughout the space of two months, it’s an incredibly expensive time to be a gamer, even if you just limit yourself to playing games on Nintendo’s consoles.
Unless you’re in the lucky position of being a self-made millionaire it’s highly unlikely that you possess either the time or the money to feasibly be able to play everything that catches your eye.
But what are the reasons behind this everything or nothing approach to releasing games? Well, Christmas factors into this to some degree, as the public generally spend the most around the festive season, buying gifts or treating themselves: but why exactly do publishers deem it necessary to keep us waiting for most of the year — giving us something worthwhile every now and then, if we’re lucky — only to crush us underneath a mountain of games in the last three months? It’s not like nobody buys games for the rest of the year, surely?
Perhaps this Christmas congestion is a throwback of a bygone era when gaming wasn’t as socially accepted a pastime as it is today. A time when it was widely assumed that gaming was mostly the hobby of children, so a great deal more titles were possibly released closer to Christmas because all those kids with their Nintendo and Sega consoles were relying on their parents to purchase these games as Christmas presents.
Nowadays, of course, the user base for games is almost unrecognisably different and the average age has leaped upwards, potentially, by around twenty years. Yet publishers still group a significant number of their releases at the tail end of the year, and truth be told many may be finding it tiresome. Choice is great, but not if it’s at the expense of being bored for nine months of the year. As long as publishers release games, gamers will buy them regardless of what month of the year it is.
In fact, wouldn’t it be so much better if releases were staggered more evenly throughout the year? Not only would it give us more of a chance to experience everything we were interested in playing, but it would put less of a strain on our wallets as well. If the plethora of games we mentioned a few paragraphs ago were spread out across 12 months as opposed to three weeks, we wouldn’t have to pick and choose what we bought because we’d have both the time and the money to purchase and play these titles as they came out.
Of course gamers can pick up titles gradually over time, but spreading the schedule would also be beneficial to the publishers. How many games did you buy on 18th November? One? Two? You almost certainly didn’t buy ten, which must mean that the sales figures of some of those games will have been affected by the close proximity of so many competing titles. Nintendo gamers, for example, wouldn’t be torn between Super Mario 3D Land or Skyward Sword at the same time: they’d be able to pick them both up as fresh, exciting day-one purchases. Another benefit for publishers would be that gamers would potentially buy more games throughout the year, aided by greater media exposure, meaning a far greater likelihood of them buying these titles at their full retail price, as opposed to picking them up at a discount — or worse still for the publisher, second-hand — further down the line.
What do you think? Is the current scheduling ill-advised and damaging for publishers, or do you enjoy the enormous influx of games over the Holiday period? Let us know in the comments below.

‘Dodger’ is the story of a London ‘tosher’ and a mysterious girl he rescues from a beating in the underbelly of the Victorian city. I must confess that it’s the first Pratchett I’ve read, however it definitely won’t be the last! I found the novel to be engaging, funny and well-written. Rarely, for a modern book that actually reads well, it also manages to be a definite page-turner. I’d recommend this book to someone wishing for an easy read that still requires a degree of thought. For all I (regrettably) know little of Pratchett’s previous work, I doubt fans will be disappointed.
Dodger, the titular character, proves to be somewhat layered. For all he is a loveable rogue whose cheek we admire, one gets the sense that deep down he retains a large heart throughout the story. It is amusing to observe how Dodger is able to emerge from various situations as an accidental hero. He keeps us entertained and as a result readers will hope he survives. As for Simplicity, the backstory Pratchett has created means that she is fascinating without the need to possess an abundance of character. In general, Pratchett uses well-designed characters to show us the other, dodgier side of London. He plays on stereotypes of ‘street people’ as a way of making the audience relate the novel to famous stories, most notably ‘Oliver’. There are several pop culture references regarding the book’s characters, most notably ‘Charlie Dickens’ and ‘Sweeney Todd’ the homicidal local barber. The diverse characters present really do show off all aspects of Victorian society, from the class system to religion. I was particularly amused by the way toshers worship ‘The Lady’, who continually represents hope.
One of the best things about ‘Dodger’ is its witty and quirky prose, which is narrated brilliantly. The book is often frank and straight-talking, yet still manages to be vividly descriptive. The passages of description are often able to create mood and build suspense, meaning Pratchett can manipulate his audience to feel exactly as he intends. The plot and setting of the book compliment this well, as Dodger often takes risks that can leave him much better or worse off depending on their results. Throughout the book’s engaging plot, one gets the sense it knows it is entertaining without taking itself too seriously. I enjoyed seeing the plot unfold and felt that guessing the ending didn’t really spoil the novel at all. In genaral, I simply loved the book, particularly its prose. It is even more of an achievement when one considers Practchett’s ill health during the writing of the novel. If you’re looking for some summer entertainment this holiday season, then this may just be for you!

We’ve seen a handful of unique analog digital clocks, but the Plotclock has to be the most unusual of the bunch. It’s also a metaphor for a dozen sad things. Made by Thingiverse member joo, Plotclock writes the time by hand, then erases what it just wrote so it can write again.
Joo used an Arduino Uno, three servos and 3D printed components to make the clock. Though I strongly suspect that he also added a liter of sighs, a patch of wrinkled skin and some shredded tax forms to the device.
This clock knows life’s a waste of time. Check out joo’s page on Thingiverse for more on the futility of it all.
