The 1980s heralded the turn in horror movies from gothic suspense to slasher. Some movies contained both characteristics during this time of change. The movie “Alone in the Dark” is one of those movies. And don't worry, the gore is very minimal.
Made in 1982, this movie has an impressive cast including Donald Pleasance, Jack Palance, and Martin Landau. Yeah, a horror movie with all three bigshots!
The premise is simple. A new psychiatrist comes to work at a mental hospital. The old psychiatrist he’s replacing moved on to greener pastures, but the patients who adored him come to believe psychotically that the new doc killed the old one and took his place. Now, they want revenge.
And they break out of their hospital to find his home and his family and trap them in there for a real suspenseful standoff.
The mental patients are fantastically developed into all your greatest fears of meeting on the street. That this innocent family has to deal with their wrath is terrifying. This was well acted, well planned out, and had a lot to say about psychosis and what is real and what isn’t.
It has a decidedly early 80s feel to it, kind of reminds me of the feel of “The Fog.” This is one in my collection I won’t part with. Occasionally, I’m in the mood for a stand-off movie with good acting and mental folks who make Jason and Michael seem like gifted children.
Give it a watch if you see it on the shelf. It’s definitely worth a look-see and perhaps even a purchase. P.S. Don’t mix this one up with the Christian Slater movie made in 2005 of the same name—that one stunk!

A subtle approach to celebrating with friends and family on St. Patty's Day is to create this cool and refreshing Key Lime Dip. Delicious isn't the word, it's better than that! When you have a taste for key lime pie, this is the easy peasy approach to making a dip variety that will never disappoint!
16 oz softened neufchatel*
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup milk
2 key limes juiced (not regular limes)
1. Beat neufchatel and sugar until creamy, adding milk slowly.
2. Stir in key lime juice and cover for one hour in the fridge.
* I use neufchatel because it's got less fat than traditional cream cheese. However, if you want that distinctive cheesecake taste then you should use cream cheese.
Serve this dip with fresh fruits and graham crackers and enjoy!

I spent several weeks thinking about the camera as I shot photos with a variety of other cameras: Olympus OM-D EM-1, Sony RX100M2 and A7M2, Panasonic LX-7. They all shot great photos but I didn't get the same feeling of joy while walking around with them as I did with the X100T. I thought hard about getting another and I visited the local camera store multiple times to play with the display model to help sway my decision.
After a couple of months of looking at many blogs and reading great reviews, I felt it was time. It was time to once again own this awesome camera.
I am no stranger to cameras. I know the ins and outs of many systems, but I am new to FujiFilm. I am taking my time to learn this camera well. Very well.
I had two little subjects who entertained me with poses and fun with a stuffed toy. I always enjoy photographing animals.
Visited a local sandwich shop and photographed a few miscellaneous things while I waited for my food.
Later that evening, we went out for dinner. I thought it would be a great time to test out the low light capabilities at a high ISO. I'd say it performed quite well. I have used Sony cameras which shoot multiple images and combine them together to produce the quality I received from one shot with the X100T.

Character Names in books I can’t pronounce is today’s writing prompt from Long and Short Reviews.
I don’t read fantasy or sci-fi, so most of the names I read I can pronounce, but there have been a few in literature that I’ve stumbled with over the years.
As an American, I will say unabashedly, HERMIONE GRANGER was a name I had so much difficulty with, as did my daughter, when we first read the Harry Potter series. We both thought it was pronounced HERMI-ONE ( like the number 1) until I heard JKRowling’s pronounce it on the Rosey O’Donnell show. After that we were good.
HERCULES POIROT by the amazeballs Agatha Christie. I read my first Poirot when I was 12 and thought his name was pronounced HerculEEEEZE PI-O-RATE. Nope. Not even close.
SCHEHERAZADE. Too many vowels and consonants placed too close together on this one for me to be able to pronounce it correctly until I heard it done so my a librarian.
Those are the ones I can remember from the top of my head. Let’s see what some of the other authors in this challenge have to say: L&SR
And before I forget, tomorrow night, JULY 23 I will be the featured guest on the Love Romance Reads Facebook chat because my summer book VANILLA WITH A TWIST was voted the book of the month. Hope you can join us – it promises to be fun!

Rebuilding trust Next steps for Risk Management in Retail Banking
Posted: 24 June 2010 | Source: SAS
In May 2010, the Economist Intelligence Unit published Rebuilding trust: Next steps for risk management in financial services. This follow-on supplement to the main report examines the steps that retail banks are taking to reinforce their risk management capabilities in response to the global financial and economic crisis. The report is sponsored by SAS.
The Economist Intelligence Unit bears sole responsibility for the content of this report. Our editorial team executed the online survey, conducted the interviews and wrote the report. The findings and views expressed in this report do not necessarily reflect the views of the sponsor.
Our research for this report drew on two main initiatives:
- We conducted an online survey of 69 retail banking executives from around the world in February 2010 as part of a larger survey of financial services executives. All respondents have a primary focus on risk management.
- To supplement the survey results, the Economist Intelligence Unit conducted a programme of qualitative research, comprising a series of in-depth interviews with industry experts.

Floating on Finnish Innovation
The best innovations improve our daily lives. For instance, Sammet marine dampers are protecting the environment as ships transport precious cargo, including people, to their destinations. They ensure vessels using heavy fuel oil successfully reduce emissions and multi-fuel engines function properly. Clean Tech is a passion for Sammet and many of their innovations are driven by a commitment to sustainable solutions that deliver safe, effective and efficient performance.
In Sammet’s offices and workshops, a dedicated team of innovators is busy solving the puzzle of a cleaner future. There is no motivational music or loud chatter in the background. Instead, a dignified, Finnish silence permeates as individuals are absorbed in meeting the latest product design challenge. Mr Sami Nurminen, Product Group Manager is responsible for servicing marine customers who rely on scrubbers and Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems for emissions control.
Expert marine innovators
A great deal of work goes into marine damper innovation. Sammet first developed marine dampers in collaboration with scrubber system developers, ship owners and the shipping industry to create quality products that meet high safety standards required for cruise ships. As the needs of ship owners became more sophisticated and the International Maritime Organization (IMO) focused on reducing sulphur oxide (SOx) limits on shipping fuel, Sammet began to design innovative products that form part of exhaust gas treatment systems. Their innovative Clean Flow damper systems benefit customers and the environment, while maximising energy efficiency and performance reliability. Another Sammet innovation benefiting customers is standardised damper design which allows extra features and options to be added to the same, basic product. Product parts can also be upgraded at a later stage due to the use of standardised building blocks. Similarly, standardised product documentation saves time and reduces costs because they are easy to understand and adaptable to specific customers design and application.

Nostalgic games bring about happy and personal associations from the past. Most of these games are already more than ten years old, and yet we don’t forget about them because they have personal significance. They’re also associated with our childhoods. Nowadays, both adults and children alike use video games as a primary source of entertainment. From Animal Crossing: New Horizons to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, the latest console games offer much consolation from these trying times. But there are also plenty of nostalgic games from the early 2000s onwards that have the same effect. Nothing screams nostalgia like playing Neopets over lunchbreak or snacks. All the games you loved while growing up are still available for you to play again.
Games from the early 2000s didn’t have the best graphics or features like the ones we have today. Nonetheless, they were the best that the budding gaming industry could offer at the time. They’re also a poignant reminder of just how far we’ve come in terms of video games. These nostalgic video games are the humble beginnings of the industry, and they still deserve the same admiration as modern video games.
Plenty of gaming companies on this list have canceled the games on this list at some point. This was due to declining popularity. But every game on this list managed to make a comeback. There’s no telling how much longer these games will be available online. They’re already under threat of becoming obsolete due to the rapid influx of new games. Which is why we might as well enjoy these games while they last. And if you’re an avid game player who uses the PC most of the time, here’s a helpful guide on the best games to play on PC. Here’s another guide on the best single-player PC games for those who like to play alone.
21 Best Nostalgic Games That You Can Still Play Today
Whether you miss the games of your childhood or are simply exploring what old-school gaming was like, there’s sure to be a nostalgic game that fits your style. Most of the games on this list are available online for free. Some are available through their respective websites.
On the other hand, some are Flash games that require the Adobe Flash Player to run. You can install the Flash player from the official Adobe web page. While you’re at it, check out our guide on how to download flash games the easy way. This should allow you to play the games on your computer without the internet.
If you like the idea of a throwback-type game marathon, we’ve compiled a list of the best games that you can play on the internet right now.
1. Club Penguin
Get your dose of nostalgic games with Club Penguin, a massively popular multiplayer online game. Originally released in 2005, Club Penguin saw plenty of ups and downs over the years. The game was re-launched as an app in 2011 and celebrated 150 million users. The game’s social nature brought in an influx of high school and college students playing the game after. It became a tool for youngsters to talk to their friends and have fun. The game is currently available online for free.
Club Penguin is a virtual world where players live as penguins. The penguins earn coins to decorate their igloos. They can also purchase fluffy pets, and date fellow penguins. You could also do plenty of penguin-life activities such as ice-fishing and sled-racing. The anthropomorphic concept of this game very much reminds us of Animal Crossing. The main difference is that you have igloos instead of houses.
The downside, though, is that the original Club Penguin didn’t have a filter or swear words. Teenagers and even children took advantage of this and so the program needed to kick them out of the game. Thankfully, the same policy is still observed today.
Giving you a good dose of nostalgia, Toontown is another example of a popular multiplayer online game. It’s built for kids, teens, and adults of all ages. Disney’s Virtual Reality Studio developed this marvelous game, which was released in 2003. The game was available through several online servers for around ten years. Newer games eventually overtook the game. Disney was thus forced to close the final server in September 2013.
The game allows users to create or design their own cartoons. The cartoons fight against pale, robotic villains called “cogs.” These are creatures who want to turn Toontown into their latest business venture. Toontown was largely inspired by the Disney animated feature “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?” in which humans were able to enter the world of cartoon characters.
The town itself is a fanciful representation of Disneyland or any other wacky cartoon community where all the Disney characters live. The play areas in this town are designed for much smaller children. Players can run, climb, and take tours of the Fantasyland attractions. There are also talking mailboxes, manhole covers, and water fountains. Surprises always wait behind doors and boxes as well. Overall, Toontown is a game with a very playful environment and universal appeal.
3. The Impossible Quiz
The Impossible Quiz is a classic and very clever brain teaser, multiple-choice style. You may remember this as the same puzzle game that you played in your childhood. It’s still around and still as perplexing as ever. The game has a total of 110 questions, plus The Epic 10 questions for the finale. And don’t worry, because this is not a game you need to study for. You don’t even need to take it that seriously. There’s no time limit for each question, but part of the challenge is to solve the entire quiz until your lives run out. How many serious questions can you answer? How many clever references can you understand?
This is an online game that is full of twists and jokes that will get you frustrated but also make you laugh. You can play this game by yourself or invite your friend to have a go at it. The only downside we can think of with this game is the poor aesthetics. It looks rather primitive with bright color contrasts and a nondescript font. We also just wish that there would be a follow-up series to the game, so players can answer a new batch of questions. But if you can overlook these, then this game is highly enjoyable. Get your dose of nostalgic games with The Impossible Quiz.
4. Barbie: Let’s Babysit Baby Krissy
Get your dose of nostalgic games with Barbie: Let’s Babysit Baby Krissy, a babysitting game for young girls. Little girls love to take care of stuffed animals and babies. Baby Krissy is the baby sister of Barbie, and you are the assigned nanny. The game has three missions that you need to accomplish. Each game you play has different tasks, so you can play the game multiple times to get all the tasks done. Anything that a nanny does, you have to do. This includes feeding, washing, and playing with the baby. You also need to go grocery shopping, take a stroll in the park, and go to the beach.
There are also some little surprises in each chapter. During lunchtime in the kitchen, you can play the radio. While bathing Baby Krissy, you can make the rubber duck quack. Pay extra attention when going grocery shopping, as the cart moves fast and you can only pick up some items. In the end, those who complete all three stages will get a diploma. Overall, this game is perfect for young girls. Just don’t think about the stereotypical implications too much.
5. My Scene: Beauty Studio
Little girls love to play dress-up with their dolls. My Scene: Beauty Studio is the online version of dressing up dolls. This online game features My Scene fashion dolls. These dolls look like a cross between a Barbie and Bratz characters if you remember those. There’s no clear objective other than to style an animated character in any way you want. Players can customize faces, add makeup, and change the hairstyles of any character. There’s a wide selection of lipsticks, hair colors, and eyeliners.
The user interface is quite advanced, considering that this game gained popularity almost ten years ago. Overall, this game is an excellent and practically harmless game for girly girls. Get your dose of nostalgic games with My Scene: Beauty Studio.
Sink into video-game nostalgia with Neopets, a virtual pet website. Users can own and care for virtual pets called Neopets and explore the virtual world of Neopia. There’s no clear objective for the users. However, you need to feed and care for your Neopets when they grow hungry or ill. Neopets are unique creatures with their color combinations and animal look-alikes. Users are also able to customize and create their Neopet. Players can customize Neopets with certain clothing items, paintbrushes, transformation potions, and accessories.
Users can also obtain items to play with or care for their Neopets. These include books, toys, and creative food. You can get these virtual items using virtual currencies. Neopoints can be earned within the site. There’s also Neocash, which you can convert from real money or win by chance in the game.
Neopets was originally released in the year 1999. It was later purchased by JumpStart Games in 2014. Chinese company NetDragon acquired Jumpstart Games three years later in 2017. The Neopets website has undergone several upgrades over the years. It was also eventually renamed to Neopets Mobile Hub. Nonetheless, the game still exists on the website and runs online.
Get your dose of nostalgic games with Snood. Snood is a fun puzzle game that tests your intellect rather than your reflexes. The game is set out with a grid of small differently-colored shapes with faces on them. You place a succession of blocks in an aiming device at the bottom of the screen. The goal is to connect three or more Snoods of the same color to make them disappear. Any blocks connected to those blocks get removed from the play as well. This is very similar to the block puzzle game where you have to match blocks with the same color to pop them.
Each attempt at hitting the blocks is crucial though. This is because each shot that fails to drop any blocks would cause a meter to move up one level. When this reaches the top, the line of blocks adds one more level to the playing field. If the blocks reach beyond the playing area, the game is over. You need to get through a total of five skill levels, as well as a set of 50 challenges to finish the game. From medium difficulty onwards, you’ll find Skulls on the layout. You can remove them by dropping.
8. The Oregon Trail
Get your dose of nostalgic games with The Oregon Trail, a series of computer games developed in the late 1970s. The theme of the game focuses on period survival and 18th-century migration. Several versions of the game have been released through the years, but they follow the same theme. The player assumes the role of a wagon leader guiding his party of settlers. The pack is traveling from Missouri to Oregon’s Willamette Valley over the Oregon trail in 1848. The ability to hunt and preserve resources is a crucial aspect of the game. Throughout the game, each player will get opportunities to purchase guns and bullets. Players also need to select a hunting option to add to their food reserves.
Be warned though. Non-player members of your virtual family could fall ill and die from a variety of causes throughout the game. Death is often caused by primitive causes. This can range from snakebites, measles, or dysentery. People could also die from drowning or a broken leg. Players receive points according to three basic criteria. First is the profession chosen by the player (farmer or carpenter). Secondly, points depend on the number and health of surviving family members. Lastly, points get awarded for remaining possessions.
9. Lilo and Stitch’s Sandwich Stacker
Get your dose of nostalgic games with Lilo and Stitch’s Sandwich Stacker, a food-catching game. If you’re not old enough to know Lilo and Stitch, they were a famous cartoon duo from the late 2000s. Stitch is a blue, dog-like alien creature. who is always hungry and eats a lot. Thus, the objective of the game is to build a delicious, stacked sandwich for Stitch. The sandwich needs to have healthy and edible ingredients. The bigger the sandwich is, the more points you’ll get.
Stitch will be in front of an open refrigerator with a plate on his hand. Both food and non-food items will be falling. The objective is to catch all the fresh items to build a healthy and delicious sandwich snack. Avoid non-edible items like fish bones and torn shoes. Also avoid added meat, mayo, and burnt pieces of bread. And if you’re not hungry before playing this game, you will be.
Webkinz was originally a brand of stuffed animals. The company later released an online counterpart, which debuted in 2005. Webkinz animals are of different types. There are regular pets, wild animals, mythical creatures, and made-up animals. In this virtual world, kids can “adopt” their store-bought plush pet and care for it in an online virtual world. Unfortunately, each virtual pet was valid for only a year. Eventually, the company decided to make the codes permanent. This meant that users get to keep their online pets forever.
All store-bought pets came with codes you can enter into the computer. Users can earn virtual currency called KinzCash. Activities to earn this include adopting new pets and playing online games. You also had to answer some general knowledge questions. Kids can then use accumulated points to purchase items for their pets. The plush toy system worked until 2019. The gaming manufacturer then announced that they will stop manufacturing new toys. However, you can still purchase purely virtual pets and care for them online. Overall, we need to applaud Webkinz for allowing users to have permanent online pets. Get your dose of nostalgic games with Webkinz.
11. The Sims
The Sims is the ultimate life simulation franchise. Sims Online is the online variation of the video game, and it’s massively multiplayer. This game is notable for allowing users to create a customized human being. People loved the concept and used it as an outlet for creating a virtual version of their ideal selves. The game is a complete simulation of real life, both in the macro and micro perspectives.
There’s plenty of things to do in this fictional universe. It’s also designed for you to be able to monitor your character’s health and moods. Players could build their dream homes, raise a family, or do fun activities. On the other hand, the game also rates players based on basic skill sets or “life skills.” These are the skills required to survive in this universe. These include mechanical, cooking, charisma, body, creativity, and logic. Characters get tested on these skill sets and have to work to develop them. If you happen to play the latest version of the Sims on your Playstation, you might want to check out this article about the best Sims 4 cheats to unlock money and great relationships.
The Sims was originally a PC game. However, it went on to expand into other platforms. These include Playstation, Xbox, and even mobile. The Sims Online series was put down in 2008 but was relaunched in 2017. The majority of the online functions were re-implemented. The relaunched version now includes 3D functions with continual updates being promised. Some of the existing changes also have category functions. Without a doubt, Sims is one of the most iconic and timeless games for all ages. Get your dose of nostalgic games with The Sims.
Get your dose of nostalgic games with Stardoll, a virtual dollhouse for little girls. With over 12 million members, Stardoll is the largest online fashion and dress-up game. It’s the digital equivalent of the dress-up game that girls have played for centuries. Stardoll is also transnational. Members have the opportunity to log onto the website in 15 different languages.
Little girls can dress and play with one of 400 celebrity dolls for free. Included in the line-up are Hollywood actors, top models, and pop stars. These are mostly icons whom little girls would want to look and dress like. You can dress up the dolls in any way you want to. You can even chat live with them, write blogs, and put up pictures to share with your friends.
There’s even a DKNY shop in Starplaza, the big shopping mall on Stardoll. There’s makeup available too, and you can try dressing up as a supermodel. Giselle Bundchen or tennis star Maria Sharapova are popular choices. The popularity of this website is backed by plenty of budding fashion companies. All of them are vying for the attention of young fans. That attention has been put to good use in this highly creative and interactive game for both little girls and grown-ups.
13. Roller Coaster Tycoon
Roller Coaster Tycoon is a roller-coaster builder and amusement park simulation game. This game essentially follows two themes. The first is building efficient roller coasters. The second is running the park and building more rides. Roller Coaster Tycoon offers a selection of 21 different scenarios, as well as a tutorial for building your empire. In actuality, only five of the 21 scenarios are available at start-up. As you complete a portion of the initial scenarios, more will become open to you. You will also get to build your won coasters.
Unlocking additional features require meeting certain targets. This usually involves achieving a certain attendance or profit goal for the rides. These are necessary for the expansion of the business. The game uses an isometric angle to view the overall map. Multiple zoom levels can be rotated 90 degrees in either direction.
The graphics on this game are also quite good. The use of bright colors and the smooth movement of the roller make the game easy on the eyes. Overall, Roller Coaster Tycoon has a pretty good niche market, and it manages to succeed for the most part. Get your dose of nostalgic games with Roller Coaster Tycoon.

These involve the present, future, and past timelines of the Kim Possible: A Sitch in Time movie. Each episode will take you through a series of obstacles. Simply follow through by jumping and bouncing off of objects.
The player earns extra points by hitting dinosaur skeletons and totems. Just avoid other classmates who may be throwing items in your way. Overall, Kim Possible is an easy and delightful game for reliving your childhood. Get your dose of nostalgic games with Kim Possible: A Stitch in Time.
15. Bueno Rufus
Rufus is a naked mole-rat and constant companion of Ron Stoppable, who is the sidekick of Kim Possible. In this game, you must prepare Mexican food at Bueno Nacho. It’s very simple. The food comes in trays from right to left in the bottom part of the screen. Operate the right dispenser to add the right ingredient to each snack. You must press on the dispenser only when the snack is right under it. Glasses need soda, burritos need salsa, and nachos need cheese. There’s also the ice cream that needs chocolate syrup. The difficulty rises as compound orders are introduced and the food rolls by faster.
This game is very casual and fun to play regardless of age. And the Mexican background music is also killing it. Get your dose of nostalgic games with Bueno Rufus.
16. Rainbow Unicorn Attack
Rainbow Unicorn Attack is an online “endless running” video game. In-game, you are a robotic white unicorn running across an endless purple fantasy land. The objective of the gameplay is to keep yourself on the platform for as long as possible. You need to get through without falling or crashing off the purple bridges. You need to jump over gaps on the path and run straight into crystal stars and circular pixies to earn points. The player has three lives or wishes before it’s game over.
Meanwhile, the sum of the scores from each life counts for the player’s final score. The game is accompanied by the song “Always” from the band Treasure. We think that this is a great soundtrack for such an energetic game. Get your dose of nostalgic games with Rainbow Unicorn Attack.
17. The Suite Life of Zack and Cody: Tipton Trouble
Get your dose of nostalgic games with The Suite Life of Zack and Cody: Tipton Trouble, an action platformer game. This game is set entirely in the fictional Tipton Hotel. The gameplay involves simple tasks. This includes using a vacuum cleaner and pushing or pulling heavy objects. At the start of each level, each non-playable character asks for a favor or sets a quest for the pair. Players can only control one brother at a time, so they need to accomplish tasks individually. They will also have a boss at every level. The abilities of the two boys are complementary. This makes it impossible to complete the game without cooperation between the two. We also need to note that Zack can jump, but that is pretty much all he can do.
This game is two-and-a-half dimensional. This means the graphics haven’t quite reached the 3D level yet. The entire game is also set in the Tipton Hotel, but we don’t have enough detail to appreciate the setting. On the upside, the camera’s viewpoint does adapt to the character’s movements. This means it pans up and down when either character jumps and backward and forwards as they walk around. Overall, Zack and Cody is a very light game. However, we couldn’t help but to wish for better-quality graphics. We could also work with a more exciting plot.
Lemmings are little white creatures with blue outfits and green hair. Now, they look nothing like the real lemmings, which are brown. Nonetheless, they’re adorable and they need help. This game aims to get a stream of the wee creatures to their designated exit point without killing them all. Lemmings appear to be oblivious creatures who could walk themselves straight into death.
The lemmings always come out from the top-level, wanting to reach a designated exit at the bottom. Tasks involve building staircases, opening umbrellas, and digging holes. Tapping on a square or block shows you the available moves you can do. Overall, Lemmings is an adorable and amiable game for all ages. Playing this game just might encourage you to help actual critters in real life as well. Get your dose of nostalgic games with Lemmings.
Bloons is a balloon-popping game originally released in 2000. In the game, you are a brown monkey with darts and other weapons. The goal is to pop as many balloons as possible before exhausting your set of darts. The game consists of various levels. Each level has more balloons than the last one. For each level, the player is provided with a set number of darts to aim at the balloons. The fewer darts the player uses, the better his or her score for that level. Hitting special Bloons also provides the player with three extra darts. This is used to fire at once during the next shot. Others have an area blast effect that pops the surrounding balloons.
The player can choose the power, aim, and other factors involving the launch of the darts. The player just needs to aim at the right angle, hold on to the arrow for a few seconds to increase power, and shoot. You also need to be mindful of remaining darts. This may look incredibly easy, but that might not be the case later on in the game. Expect plenty of balloons and a giant wall. Overall, Bloons appears to be a unique game and a fun focus exercise that you can master over time. Get your dose of nostalgic games with Bloons.
Poptropica is a single-player, island-traversing game developed for children and teens. At first, you are assigned a random character then taken to any of the vast numbers of islands on Poptropica. Each island is different and will present the player with a new and different problem to solve. The main objective is to save each of the islands from whatever ails them.
Along the way, you’ll interact with NPCs (non-player characters). You’ll also be able to watch cut scenes to move along in the story, and collect new items to find a use for later. You will also get to play mini-games and discover new places. This game is intended primarily as a single-player game. However, there are also common rooms where you’ll find other players online and add them as friends. Overall, Poptropica offers engaging and fun challenges along the way. It also encourages critical thinking, which is great. Get your dose of nostalgic games with Poptropica.
Play Solitaire is entirely playable within a web browser, and it is available to play for free. You may also customize the look of the cards by switching out the backdrop. The game has a simple interface and is played on full screen, making it more comfortable for the eyes. Furthermore, no blinking lights or other potentially distressing elements are present.
As you play, the game records your statistics and top scores. The game’s best feature is that you don’t have to move individual cards or piles of cards around. Simply select the card you wish to play and tap it to play it. The game will automatically make a lawful move if one exists. The “click-and-play” mechanism allows for quick games; however, you can move the cards manually if you like. Once you’re familiar with the controls, you can even play a half-dozen or more games in a single sitting.
The cards are artistically designed, and its music and sound effects are bright and upbeat. When you win, the screen will harken back to the PC version of Solitaire. The cards bounce toward the screen’s bottom and leave trails behind them. Definitely something to look forward to when you beat the game!
Final Thoughts on Nostalgic Games
Some scientific studies indicate that nostalgic games are therapeutic for individuals. The feeling of nostalgia while playing a game is in fact a highly positive emotion. These games prove that almost anything, even as simple as a video game, could bring so much joy. It’s especially memorable if you grew up playing these games. This must also be the reason why some people go back time and again to their favorite childhood games despite the existence of newer games. These nostalgic games are just so iconic and memorable that it’s difficult to think of them getting erased from the face of the internet.
These video games may be old, but they’re very easy to play and are highly accessible. For sure, the nostalgic games on this list aren’t the most sophisticated of the bunch. These games don’t have the HD, 3D, or augmented reality technology employed by more advanced video games. But on a positive note, these games don’t require a gaming controller and are available for free online. These games are also incredibly simple that anyone of any age can play them. Sometimes these old PC games even receive updates and patches made by an adoring community. These nostalgic games remain playable on computers and devices. And who knows, maybe one day there will be an upgraded version of these games using virtual reality.

American Vodka "American Vodka"
Reviewed by Grey Malkin (The Hare & The Moon)
American Vodka were an Austin, Texas band who pursued their own distinctive brand of wistful, reflective and utterly addictive psych rock in the early noughties, the results of which finally see the light of day on the very splendid Reverb Worship label a full ten years after the band's demise. Their moniker speaks of their spiky independent and contrary streak, the notion of American distilled vodka being, as the band put it, 'a veritable oxymoron' at the time. Coming on like a paisley hued Replacements with shades of both Television and The Chameleons this is an unearthed treasure, a lost classic waiting for not just reappraisal but first listen.
'Walking Upright' mixes urgent 'In Between Days' Cure-style guitar with singer SL Telles' melancholic but driven vocals, the song exploding into life with some seriously psyched out riffage; imagine a punkier, Stateside Kinks. 'Violet' is equally as powerful though is hazier, more nostalgic and is carried on waves of flanged and chiming guitars. Heartbreakingly good, it ebbs and flows before crashing into tidal waves of viola, guitar drones and controlled feedback. ‘German Girls' changes the pace, a more hesitant and leftfield piece with corrosive bursts of guitar seeping through the verses, SL's Tom Verlaine-like vocals a perfect foil for the surreal and enigmatic lyrics. 'Falling Water Rising' reminds this listener of ‘New Day Rising’ era Husker Du; it is that good. Make no mistake however, American Vodka may elicit these reference points but they are their own unique proposition; a fascinating mix of new wave, psych, punk and paisley underground. 'Nantucket' is a shimmering, widescreen beauty that coasts on a motorik bassline and some glistening, reverbed guitar. Hugely inventive, American Vodka songs have odd angles and searing noise a plenty but there is also a curious, leftfield loveliness to their material. One can imagine it soundtracking a Hal Hartley film, offbeat but all the while ably tugging at the heartstrings. 'Beaten' is a moody, scorched earth, sinister, Six Organs of Admittance style epic, the calm before the storm of the verses leading into a maelstrom of fuzz and psych freakouts. Carefully layered and paced, the band are masters of dynamics, building and sweeping ever higher and to greater plains of sheer shiver inducing abandon and emotion. The album finishes with a live version of 'Houston', swirling grinding guitar and snarling vocals providing a blitzkrieg ending to a genuinely exciting and emotive release.
A previously hidden gem, this release comes in limited quantities so make haste! American Vodka may be long gone as an entity but this music is alive with possibility, verve and spirit. Raise a glass and seek out this album. Order the CD-R here, with streams and downloads available through the widget below.

In the industrial field, initially these architectures
were applied in modelling non-linear systems and
control engineering. Actually, however these
architectures are used in almost all knowledge areas
where a non-linear function should be approximated.
The actual neuro fuzzy systems application areas are
medicine, economy, control, mechanics, physics,
In this article it is presented, in a summarize way,
the last decade of investigation in the area of the
modelling non-linear functions through neuro-fuzzy
systems. Duo to the vast number of common tools it
continues to be difficult to compare conceptual the
different architectures and to evaluate comparatively
its performances. In generic terms the bibliography
points that neuro fuzzy systems that implement
Takagi-Sugeno type fuzzy inference systems get
accurate results than the approaches that implement
neuro fuzzy inference systems of Mamdani type,
although its bigger computational demanding. As a
guide line for implementing highly efficient neuro-
fuzzy systems they should have the following
characteristics; fast learning; adaptability on-line; to
adjust itself with the aim of obtaining the small
global error possible; small computational
The data acquisition and the pre-processing of input
training data are also very important for the success
of the application of the neuro-fuzzy architectures.
All the neuro-fuzzy architectures use the gradient
descent techniques of for the learning its internal
parameters. For a faster convergence of the
calculation of these parameters it would be
interesting to explore other efficient algorithms of
neural networks learning as the conjugated gradient
search in spite of the backpropagation algorithm.

The deadline for the Spring Challenge (15 May) is moving in quick and I need to get moving on this block! I've been stuck for the longest time! Trying to figure out how to embellish the last few spots on the block. It's been tough because normally I wouldn't worry about it and just set it aside until inspiration strikes, but because there is a deadline I can't do that.
I filled in more on this motif...it's still not finished it needs more stems and leaves around it. I don't really like how it's so round so I'm going to try and "fix" it somehow.
I finally got an idea for this upper area after taking quilting paper and doodling over the spot. I decided on a Melanie rose vine and a hummingbird sweetly sipping. So far I have the Melanie roses embroidered in and also adding on a 3rd row of 3 twisted stem stitch petals, they just looked like they needed and extra row to be more fully rose shaped. I also added a base with padded satin stitching and bullion knot sepals.

Are Site Surveys Crucial to Crane Installation?
If you’re looking to invest in a crane for your construction site for the first time, you may be wondering whether your supplier is obligated to perform a site survey before installation can begin. The short answer is no - not always, at least. If you’re simply going to be moving a pallet of bricks or bags of gravel from one area of the site to another, for example, then a survey is probably not going to be necessary. However, it’s still essential for the operator to comply with all of the relevant health and safety at work legislation. They will also be responsible for ensuring that the load does not pass over other workers - for this reason it may be necessary to cordon off parts of the site while the lift is in progress.
On the other hand, when lifting any large or heavy materials or equipment that requires the use of a heavy-duty overhead crane, you will emphatically need to have a survey carried out before the crane is constructed. The construction industry remains to be one of the most high-risk professions for workplace injuries - when a crane is involved, there can be fatal consequences. Ensuring that all possible safety measures have been taken is crucial.
What Does a Site Survey Involve?
Whether the site survey is being conducted by the main contractor or a trusted crane supplier, it goes without saying that site survey reports should be completed in full and comply with all health and safety regulations. The first phase of a site survey is the risk assessment. The larger and heavier the load, the greater the risk of accidents - which is why intricate planning must always be undertaken at this stage. Planning should always factor in the following:
The weight, size and material of the load. Full details of how high the load has to be lifted, as well as whether the crane will need to be moved to another area of the site will be required.
Ground conditions: Will the crane be operating on solid ground, such as concrete or tarmac? Other necessary information including the site’s access points and any ground the crane may have to move over whilst carrying out the lift.
Heavy-duty cranes are big, bulky pieces of equipment - are the access roads and gateways wide enough for the crane to pass through? Are there any obstacles in the way that need to be relocated?
Are there any aerial obstructions that may pose a hazard during the lift, and can they be avoided or removed?
Will any roads need to be closed during the crane’s arrival, operation or departure? This will have to be officiated by the local authority.
With the risk assessment complete and any potential hazards highlighted, your crane supplier can decide on the best way to proceed. For example, if a large overhanging tree is an obstruction, can it be removed? Only when these problems have been resolved can a lift be given the go ahead and arrangements can be made to install a crane on site.

Award-winning British chef Matthew Tomkinson is to star in an Alpine summer culinary event, which is popular with hikers, mountain bikers and climbers.
Matthew - who runs two restaurants at the Montagu Arms country house hotel in Beaulieu, Hampshire - is one of four European chefs to feature in this summer's Culinary Jakobsweg in the Austrian villages of Ischgl, Galtür, Kappl and See, which are popular ski resorts in the winter and a paradise for mountain sports in summer.
Each chef creates a new dish using local produce, which is then adopted by the kitchen of one of the four mountain lodges dotted along the ancient pilgrims' path of Jakobsweg as it crosses this part of the Alps and then features on the menu enjoyed by hungry holidaymakers all summer long.
Matthew is developing a veal dish which will be on the menu of the Jamtalhütte in the mountains above the village of Galtür = following in the footsteps of Dorset chef Russell Brown who took part in the event last summer and was also paired with the Jamtalhütte.
This is the 7th summer of the Culinary Jakobsweg and it enables guest chefs to explore creative dishes using the abundance of local produce. It's the brainchild of the valley's own celebrity chef, Martin Sieberer, an Austrian Chef Of The Year, who runs the Paznaunerstube in the 5* Hotel Trofana Royal, and the event is supported by Chef Of The Century Eckart Witzigmann.
The event runs from the beginning of July until the end of September and Matthew will visit the valley for the launch - and to teach the recipe to the kitchen staff at the Jamtalhütte - and will be accompanied by his partner Alexandra Coxon and their five-month-old baby Esmé.
I'm so excited about doing this. I'm not a skier and haven't been to the Tirol before, but I love hiking and the great outdoors and I am so looking forward to visiting the area and also to meeting the other chefs.
The three other chefs taking part are Marc Veyrat from France, who is one of the top chefs in Europe; Jörg Sackmann from Germany; and Laurent Smallegange from The Netherlands.
As well as having a Michelin star, Matthew has three AA rosettes, has appeared twice in The Sunday Times Top 100 UK Restaurants, is in the Good Food Guide and last year was the winner of the Hampshire Chef Of The Year.
Summer offers for holidaymakers can be found on www.paznaun-ischgl.com - for example a three night stay with breakfast and including the Silvretta Card, which allows free or discounted use of facilities and activities in the valley, is from €75 pp.


Carolyn Reidy, president and chief executive of Simon & Schuster, says the biggest challenge is to give people a reason to step into Barnes & Noble stores in the first place. “They have figured out how to use the store to sell e-books," she said of the company. "Now, hopefully, we can figure out how to make that go full circle and see how the e-books can sell the print books.”"...we can figure out...how the e-books can sell the print books"? That's like saying that if we wish hard enough, we can use calculators to sell abacuses. There's an incredible denial of reality going on here: Print still represents a majority of book sales, but it's been declining for years, while eBooks' share of book sales has been growing. If you're fixated on maintaining your print book sales, you're guaranteeing that your business will be marginalized over time.
If trends continue, eBooks will represent more than 50% of trade book sales within the next two years. Textbooks and specialty titles will take longer, but they'll likely reach or exceed the 50% point before the end of this decade. Denial of reality is only going to make the transition more painful. Publishers can survive in a majority-eBook market, so long as they manage their businesses to do so.
So, what can publishers do? They can consolidate their warehouses and get rid of excess capacity. They can move to a "digital first" model where eBooks, not print, drive the editorial and production process. They can anticipate smaller print runs and start implementing print-on-demand production. If they don't do these things, they'll have no one to blame but themselves when their companies fail.
As for Barnes & Noble, it too has to manage for a future when eBooks comprise most book sales. It has to be prepared to shrink the size of its stores, dramatically decrease the amount of display space dedicated to print books, and use electronic displays to replace physical shelves. It should already be privately prototyping and testing these new-generation stores, so that it's ready to start rolling them out in the next few years. It can't go forward by staring in a rear-view mirror.
The handwriting is so clearly on the wall that any publishing or bookselling executive who ignores it is guilty of willful ignorance.


The command used to control the system of inexpensive licenses is the update_cpanelv2 command for cPanel/WHM servers. You can use this command according to this guide.
Usage: update_cpanelv2 [OPTION] List arguments : --noupcp Dont update cPanel when license need update. --upcp Run cpanel update. --ssl-services Run a system to generate SSL for cPanel,exim,FTP,Dovecot --Uninstall Uninstall & remove our licensing system from your server. --version Output version information and exit
If this command (update_cpanelv2) is used without any options, the license system will be updated as needed. and if necessary, the cPanel software will be updated as well.
But the options available in this command are that each has its own task.
- --noupcp : This option updates the license system. while cPanel and related software are not updated.
- --upcp : This is equivalent to /scripts/upcp command, which updates the entire cPanel software.
- --ssl-services : With this option you can Automatically Issue LetsEncrypt SSL for all your Cpanel services, not Cpanel accounts, such as cPanel, exim, FTP, Dovecot.
- --Uninstall : This option only completely removes the license system from the server. This option doesn't work on cPanel/WHM software.
- --version : This option is used to display system license information, such as its version.
Note: The new version replaces the update_cpanelv3 command instead of the update_cpanelv2 command.

Are you glad it's Friday again or what?! I sure am! This is a big week in our household - our wedding anniversary, Rylan's birthday (turned 3!), FIL's birthday, and my store is in the middle of some much needed renovations. Gotta love the chaos.
But Friday does mean that it's time for some fun, and not only just because it's the weekend but because it's time for this week's SYS challenge. For this week's Scrap Your Story theme we're asking you to do a layout that's birthday related.
These photos are from Vance's birthday party in December. We'd done a Pizza Planet/Buzz Lightyear theme so I paired up the photos with October Afternoon's Rocket Age.
The background paper was way to textual and balanced for me so I took some watercolors and darkened out one whole quadrant and then faded out toward the center and bottom.
The sketch I based my layout on was Scrapbooksteals MWM Aquamarine 2.

Screening tests are used to find breast cancer before it causes any warning signs or symptoms. Screening tests can find breast cancer early, when the chances of survival are highest.
Regular screening tests (along with follow-up tests and treatment if diagnosed) reduce your chance of dying from breast cancer.
Breast cancer screening tests include clinical breast exam and mammography. For some women at higher risk of breast cancer, breast MRI may also be used.
Sometimes a screening test finds something abnormal and follow-up is needed. It’s important to get follow-up without delay. If breast cancer is found, it’s best to be diagnosed and treated at the earliest possible stage.
Clinical Breast Exam: A physical exam done by a health care provider as part of your regular medical check-up.
Mammography: A screening tool that uses X-rays to create images of the breast. Overall, mammography is the most effective screening tool used today to find breast cancer in most women. It may also be used as a follow-up test on an abnormal finding (called a diagnostic mammogram).
Breast MRI: A tool that uses magnetic fields to create images of the breast. It's used in breast cancer screening for some women at higher risk. It may also be used as a follow-up test after an abnormal finding or for staging breast cancer.
Follow-up after an abnormal finding on a screening test may include a diagnostic mammogram, a breast MRI and/or a breast ultrasound. It’s important to get follow-up without delay.
Although these follow-up tests may be called “diagnostic tools” and may be able to rule out breast cancer, they cannot diagnose breast cancer.
Learn about follow-up after an abnormal finding on a clinical breast exam.
Learn about follow-up after an abnormal finding on a mammogram.
A biopsy (needle or surgical) is needed to diagnose breast cancer. (A biopsy is not a screening test.)
A biopsy removes cells or tissue from a suspicious area of the breast. The cells or tissue are studied under a microscope to see if cancer is present.
It’s important to get a biopsy done (without delay) so if breast cancer is diagnosed, it can be treated at the earliest possible stage.

The First Quarto of Othello
This is the first modernized and edited version of the 1622 Othello. By taking this earliest published version of Othello as a book in its own right, Scott McMillin accounts for the mystery of its thousands of differences from the Folio version by arguing that the Quarto was printed from a theatre script reflecting cuts and actors’ interpolations made in the playhouse. McMillin explains that the playhouse script was apparently taken from dictation by a scribe listening to the actors themselves, and thus reveals how Othello was spoken in seventeenth-century performance. This edition, which consists of a detailed introduction, quarto text, select collation and textual notes, is an important book for scholars in Shakespeare and Elizabethan-Jacobean drama, with wide ramifications for other Shakespeare textual studies and for students of early theatre history.

After leaving Aysgarth Falls (document in my last post here) I drove just a few miles to West Burton Falls. This is an easily accessible location as you can park in the village just a few hundred yards away and there are no hills to climb.
The previous two images were both taken from the same spot, or nearly so, first with a 180mm lens (a short telephoto or portrait lens) and second with a 65mm moderate wide angle lens.
They were also developed with a different developer; the first three images in this post were developed with Rollei RHS-D74-DC and the last, which was the only shot taken with a second roll of FP4+, was developed in Kodak HC110.
I doubt very much if readers will notice any difference due to the developers; I’ve always thought that different developers don’t make a great deal of difference to the appearance of the image. Convenience factors (eg whether you prefer liquid or powder, one-shot or replenishable) and seem to be more important factors in choosing a developer.
I managed to make what seems like a major error with the HC110 developer, which was that I made stock solution by diluting the concentrate 1+1, even though the instructions quite clearly said it should be diluted 1+3. So by the time I had made up the working solution using Dilution B, my developer was twice as strong as it should be !
As soon as I saw the negatives come out of the tank I could see I’d made a mistake as they were very high in contrast, which is a sign of over-development. However I don’t think you can really detect ill-effects in this scanned version. I hope to print the image in the darkroom soon so I’ll see how that works with a soft grade setting.
