Book recommendation 04: Idiot's guide to Islam

By Yahiya Emerick.

Introduction

Imagine learning that there are over a billion people in the world, one sixth of humanity, who follow a religion that you never really studied in school. This little known religion is called Islam. Perhaps you’ve heard the name before or developed some opinions about it based on what you’ve seen in the news. However, if you’re like most people, you might not know a great deal about Islam. Well, you’ve taken the first step toward understanding more about this mysterious way of life, and you may find yourself pleasantly surprised to learn what it really teaches.
Islam shares many of the

Sunset Shimmer TheorySo the new movie Equestria Girls is coming out and we have our new antagonists, Sunset Shimmer. In the second trailer we see that she is a pony and not originally a human. Also, she seems to have an interest in Twilight's crown. Here's my thoughts and theories on that purpose.
On the back of Sunset Shimmer's toy box it explains that she explores new places and that she was an old student of Princess Celestia. In the trailer Sunset had no fear into going into the mirror. Maybe she's knows what's on the other side. But what really catches my eye is that Sunset Shimmer WAS an old student of Celestia. This is probably the reason why she wants Twilight's crown. Why you ask. Well...
A long time ago, Celestia was trying to find unicorns with great power so they could bring back the lost element of Magic and fulfill their destinies as royalty. One day, there was a pony name Sunset Shimmer. She was naturally gifted in

Sonic Lost Worlds ImpressionsOkay, a few weeks ago, Sonic Lost Worlds was announced from Sega. And I just want to show you my first impressions of it. So enjoy reading my first impression of Sonic Lost Worlds.

Graphics:
The graphics look just as wonderful as Sonic Generations, but this time it seems that Sega went to a Cell-shaded route. And I don't mind this actually. They look colorful and just wonderful to look at. And I think this is how a Sonic game should look to me. It just screams Sega Genesis to me.

Gameplay:
Gameplay wise, its pretty similar to the likes of Super Mario Galaxy. Which brings up a question I have for you guys. Were the designers of this game who

Why is writing important to you?
I feel that writing is important to me because it's how I truly express myself. In real life, I have difficulties in expressing what I truly feel. Most of the time I show a different face expression but draw or mostly, write a completely different expression. Writing is how I truly speak without having to show it on my face because I really can't do that.

When did you have an interest in writing?
I would say that since I was in elementary school. That's when a lot of

Rome: Total War Strategy GuideThis is my strategy guide for winning EVERY battle you have to fight in Rome: Total War.

Section One: Units and their abilities.

RTW is filled with a plethora of units, ranging from humble peasants to tough Roman Legionaires to tanklike elephants. Each one has their own strengths and weaknesses.

Infantry:
Your standard issue cannon fodder. At least half of whatever force you have should be made of infantry. They are vulnerable to heavy cavalry, who can outrun and outfight them. Archers are not a particular problem, as you can chase them down if you have units to spare. If you can, get ahold of a unit that has the ability to throw pila. The

YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS!There has been a lot of talk about what your rights are and i'm here to tell you strait.

YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS.
Don't believe me? Didn't think so. Well prof time. The fallowing are the most common "rights" that we claim to have.

right to live
right to choice (also called freedom of choice)
right to pursue happiness

NOW LETS TEAR THEM APART!!!

"right to live" - Lie. You are brought into this world without choice or say in the matter.

"right to choice" - Also lie. You are a slave to the machine and you can not stop it. Even the people in control can't stop it. They can slow it down and even pause it but they can not stop it.

The Wake of Corruption It is a wonder, the power that the government holds over it's people. Yet, that statement is a corruption of what was instituted long ago by the blood of our precessors. We are the government, at least we should be. Our elected officials are to serve us, not the other way around. Yet, we pay them to live lavishly while we suffer. Not all of them are corrupt, for we can never use absolutes without knowing everyone's complete character. However, I do not find it out of bounds to call out the elected on their impedement of our rights.
How many scandals will we let go through our society before we cut off the source of corruptio

LAS CHICAS EN EL ANIME

LAS CHICAS EN EL ANIME: DEL SHOJO AL SHONEN
Por Saori-Luna

Saludos a todos n.n. Ya en ocasiones anteriores me he referido a mi gusto por el género shojo; las historias "para niñas", tipo "Angel, la niña de las flores", "Sailor Moon", y "KareKano", han sido favoritas desde mi infancia temprana; sin embargo, con motivo de la preparación para el Cosplay Bogotá 2008 tuve que hacer una pequeña inmersión en el mundo de los niños, el shonen, con la que quedé satisfecha, al menos desde la óptica en lo que a personajes femeninos se refiere.

Indie, juegos- placer

Indie, cuando hacer juegos es un placer

Bien, les prometí éste tema, así que ahí va. Atención: todo el contenido (bueno, no el 100%, por ahí no mas el 80% :XD: ) es opinión mía, no hay mucha información al respecto por ahí.

Hace algunos años, cuando la computación permite que las personas hagan lo que puedan con increíble programación, algunas de ellas deciden que pueden hacer juegos y entretener a la gente. Todo esto se une a la apertura de Internet, ahora el que quiere puede subir lo que quiera a la red sin muchas complicaciones. Ahí es cuando nacen los juegos independientes, juegos que no son creados por una empresa que se dedica a hacer eso, sino por personas que lo tomaron por hobbie.

No hace falta buscar mucho por ahí en la red para encontrar algún juego indie, pero seguramente es alguno muy malo. A pesar de esto, y si uno realmente pone toda la intención, se encuentran verdaderas joyas. Y les voy a introducir algunas de ellas.

En mi opinión, el primer juego que se debe jugar de éste tipo es Cave Story, o Doukutsu Monogatari , que es su nombre original en japonés. En términos de gráficas no es el mejor, se ve como un juego de Super Nintendo y de hecho se siente así, pero no dejen que esto los detenga. La historia es de las mejores que he visto en juego, el gameplay es impecable, y además es el juego más sobrevalorado en el Internet. El juego es un Platformer Shoter, aunque tiene muchos elementos de RPG.

Antes que nada, yo pienso que lo que caracteriza un buen juego es:
1. Historia y/o gameplay
2. ejecución
3. gráficas y efectos
En ese orden. Sólo buenas gráficas no hacen un buen juego. Con ejecución me refiero a la “firma personal” del que hizo el juego, algo así como el estilo del juego.

Bien, aclarando eso, me gustaría hablarles de otro creador de juegos. Se hace llamar Nifflas, y de hecho tiene una cuenta acá en deviantART, :devnifflas:, y tiene excelentes juegos. No les hablare mucho de ellos, es mejor que visiten su página y disfruten de sus maravillosas obras de arte (Sí, incluso algunos juegos pueden llegar a ser artísticos) http://nifflas.ni2.se

También existe un muy buen blog sobre “juegos casuales”. En éste blog encontrarán de los mejores juegos independientes en la red, además de otros juegos un poco más comerciales. Hagan un recorrido, seguro encontrarán algo bueno http://jayisgames.com
