faster, stronger, more powerful then a locomotive
 Ever wondered what is really making the new xbox 360 slim faster and quieter then its white counterpart? Well it turns out that the CPU and graphics chip have been made into one. First off, thats pretty impressive but then the question comes up, "why didn't they do this sooner and with the 1st iteration of the Xbox 360s?" Microsoft have been trying to find a common ground for both IBM and ATI to come togther to make one chip. In the orignal Xbox 360's the CPU by IBM and the ATI graphics chip were seperated and thus lead to more over heating and more red rings of death. Once they got the companies to work together they planned, tested, and eventually got the new buit in chip to work for the new Xbox 360 slim. With this chip in the new Xbox 360 slim the 360 runs 60% less power to run, it runs cooler at a better tempature, and a lot  quieter too then its counterpart. The fans themselves don't even need to run as high as 55% in hot temperture rooms or areas. For once Microsoft you got it right.

As the new school year rolls around everyone is going back to the usual grind when it comes to school. For the freshmen at Wabash College thats a bit of a different story for those looking for an interesting class to add. At Wabash College one of the freshman  seminar's called, ""Enduring Questions" and will go in dept with, "fundamental questions of humanity through classical and contemporary works." In this course the students will be required to play Portal after reading some of 1959 sociology text "The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life."
 What brought about this idea for the class? The instructor, Michael Abbot, was moviated from reading the game theory article written by Daniel Johnson of Gamasutra. Micheal saw the similiarties with Portal and Goffman's work in the 1959 book. There were other games he had considered for the class between Portal, Bioshock, and  Planescape Torment for the class, but ultimatly decided with Portal in the end. It's nice to see that video games are being incorporated  into eductation. It kinda brings back memories of trying to convince the teacher to a report on Grand Theft Auto 3, because it related to the elements of a story.

I highly suggest you read up on Daniel Johnson's article at, http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/23960/Analysis_Portal_and_the_Deconstruction_of_the_Institution.php

shes not so innocent anymore, haruhi likes older men!
Aya Hirano, most known for her role as Suzumiya, Haruhi, recently had an interview session with "Rakuten Women News." Unfortunately, due to the sources intel, it wasn't too descriptive and mis-information can easily be read, but Aya has been dating more than one person, and is currently in love with one of them. They understand that she likes older guys, which caused her fan-base to go into a complete despair and uproar on her 2channel and Twitter (which I thought was hilarious,) she reacted to the comments with" All the experiences support me and I don't want to play characters without knowing the real love. ...Please don't post comments like 'Go to hell!' 'I hate you!'. ...I was self-confident in me tough heart, but they do depress me."

Rakuten Women also reported that her new manager is trying to convert Aya from a VA to a multi-talent star. Apparantly Aya was anxious about this move, but she finally decided to move away to the otaku world and into a more in-depth field of work that appeals to more girls.

it was fun while it lasted....
Online manga site, OneManga shuts down their site, due the the new law that all online manga will now be licensed. Due to this law, it has worried thousands of readers. Other scanlation sites like Manga Traders shut down in mid June while Manga Fox took out all of the Viz Media scanlations in correspondence to this outcome. Another site, MangaHelpers, announced that they well be shutting down their site in oder to open up another site, OpenManga, which is another manga site that is supposed to allow manga artists to distribute manga openly and freely (legally.)

She is most known for her roles from Zero no Tsukaima, Shakugan no Shana, Toradora, Hayate no Gotoku!, Gintama, Rosario to Vampire, and the list just goes on. Coincidentally, most of her roles are all "tsundere" girls.

She's currently working on Ginatama and Fairy Tail, 2 popular anime as well as most likely planned for other anime is the future.
