A-Bomb Day [International Incident]

Today is A-Bomb day, the anniversary of the day that the US dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima in an attempt to end the aggression in the Pacific during World War II. It’s a day that many Americans do not think about, but every year the mayor of Hiroshima makes a statement and implores the world to stop the proliferation of nuclear weapons. ...

Otakon 2010 [Photographic Memory]

[caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“500” caption=“Most impressive ensemble goes to the gaggle of Doctor Whos, but this was definitely my favorite Otakon cosplay ensemble.”] [/caption] The USA’s second largest anime convention came and went and I took pictures of it. Yes, Otakon 2010 happened, but, no, I didn’t want to actually pay admission to go in since I don’t watch as much anime anymore and I didn’t know any of the artists that were appearing, so I freeloaded along with my brother and took pictures of the cosplayers who were coming into or leaving the convention center on Saturday. ...

StarCraft 2 - Early Impressions [PC]

[caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“500” caption=“Sarah Kerrigan, Pre-Queen of Blades”] [/caption] Like everyone else in the world right now, I’m playing StarCraft II, but I’ve been too busy to get too far into it so I’ve only got a few impressions. - I love the new Adventure Game mission structure. It’s great to have these conversations with members of the crew to flesh out the mythology. When will I get dialog trees? That and a “How appropriate, you fight like a cow” dialog choice are must-haves to me. - The upgrade and mission structure system is pretty neat too. Since I’ve only just made it to the Hyperion, I don’t know if I’ll have the chance to go back and do merc missions too if I do the benevolent ones first, but time will tell on that one. - The jukebox covers are great. I love “Suspicious Minds” - Watch the opening cinematic! Once you’ve played a few missions, watch it again! Hmmmm… - Why is the subtitle option under Gameplay? Shouldn’t it be under sound? - Dynamically growing, unlimited group sizes make me so happy! - I’m already hooked on SC2 achievements. I made it to mission 3 and then restarted the campaign to do them again on hard, not realizing that I’d be able to replay them from the deck of the Hyperion. - I’ve always felt that WarCraft 3’s story borrowed too heavily from the awesome SC storyline (member of one species/race becomes co-opted by another, betrays his own kind, etc.) so it’s nice to get back to the superior SC mythos. Now all I’ve got to do is, you know, make progress in said story so that I can learn what’s up. ...

Stupid Injuries [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]

[caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“500” caption=“This is actually dangerous. Pies to the face are not.”] [/caption] So last night I went to Nationals Park explicitly to see Strasburg face off against Heyward and the Braves. Mere minutes before his start, they announce that Miguel Batista will make the start instead. This is as thousands of fans were still flowing into the park being duped into thinking the tickets they were buying were still for Strasburg. In this case, it wasn’t a injury whose genesis was stupid, just shoulder inflammation that Strasburg also battled when he pitched for San Diego State, but it was still a huge bummer. ...

Matt Garza No-Hits the Detroit Tigers! [WMQ]

[caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“399” caption=“Garza makes Rays history!”] [/caption] It took the Rays 2038 games to make it happen, but they finally notched their first no-hitter since the team’s inaugural season in 1998. That’s right, it’s been 2038 games, the team has had three no-hitters completed against them within the past two seasons, and they finally made it happen in a year where no-hits are almost becoming commonplace. ...
