Abit of fun for today :)
Tried this with one of the England games and he was correct so let's see if he gets it correct for the final.
Thanks for looking :)
Here are all the characters that have been announced so far and I'll the ones that I think that are going to be the new SSB game for Wii U and 3DS! I have 44 characters total with 10 Newcomers and the rest Veterans. I also added the random box so I could show you that it fits in a rectangle. Do you agree with this list? If not, please say what you would change in the comments! If you want to make one of your own, here's the background image I used: chunkymonkey2o.deviantart.com/art/Blank-Roster-155877779
Recently, there is a big rumor spreading about another brand new FIFA 17 Game Mode except the story mode. According to an eventually leaked picture, a brand new called FIFA 17 Champions Game Mode will be available on FIFA 17 Ultimate Team.
In FIFA 16, EA Sports introduced the Draft mode to FUT...

When teaching statistics, there is a famous tool called the "Quincunx", where a set of marbles can be dropped through a series of "pins". The ball bounces to the left or right of any given pin in a "chaotic" manner (e.g. it is highly sensitive to small variations in initial conditions), and where (left to right) it ends up on the bottom is essentially a random (or high dimensional) outcome. Aggregated together, the quincunx produces a normal-shaped bell curve of outcomes, which can be shown visually with the marbles.
The same idea is behind Lorenz's model of ski-hill moguls (from his book "The essence of chaos"), and is described nicely in this pdf: nature.berkeley.edu/~bingxu/UU/geocomp/Week8/Chaos.pdf

Hearing of newspaper
This gallery depicts a series of futuristic pictures by the French painter Jean-Marc Côté and other artists issued in 1899, 1900, 1901 and 1910. Originally in the form of paper cards enclosed in cigarette/cigar boxes and, later, as postcards, the images described the world as it was imagined to be like in the then distant year of 2000.
At least 87 were produced, and I have managed to capture 73 of them 😊. While a few were on point (A version of Skype or Facetime), many were wildly off-tangent (underwater croquet, anyone?). And all are definitely worth a look!

A rare reaction from competitive colleagues at the Churchill Club this evening....
I had just presented the first trend, and grabbed the camera for the reaction on stage.
We each suggest trends, and then vote red or green, which usually leads to a lively debate.
I went for a U.S. market trend and a geek trend (and tried not to overlap with last year’s predictions):
Trend #1: Demographics are destiny, creating opportunity. Every 11 seconds, a baby boomer turns 60. This Internet-savvy cohort represents an enormous market of time and money, driving new opportunities in “mental exercise”, online education, and eventually, an “eBay for information” that exceeds the market for physical goods.
Trend #2: Evolution Trumps Design. Many interesting unsolved problems in computer science, nanotechnology, and synthetic biology require the construction of complex systems. Evolutionary algorithms are a powerful alternative to traditional design, blossoming first in neural networks, now in microbial re-engineering, and eventually in AI.
Vinod Khosla:
Trend #1: The device that used to be a phone. A mobile phone will turn into a mainstream computer. Beyond email, built in projection screen, and high speed data will make it your virtual credit card, ID (passport), access to new types of presence (IM), payment system, personal information filing system, and much much more.
Trend #2: Fossilizing fossil energy. Oil will have increasing difficulty competing with biofuels made from cheap non-food crops for transportation. Coal will become less competitive compared to reliable solar thermal and enhanced geothermal electricity as both oil and coal’s decline will be aided by higher efficiency engines, cars, lighting, appliances.
Josh Kopelman:
Trend #1: The rise of the “Implicit” Internet. Historically, the web delivered most of its value by satisfying explicit user actions – a user entered a search query on Google, a user entered a review on Yelp, a user added their friends on Facebook.
However, as people spend more time online (and perform more of their activities online), they are leaving a trail of “digital breadcrumbs” exposing data about themselves. The result is an immense amount of implicit data on a user. Netflix knows what movies I watch and like. Apple knows what music I purchase and listen to…
However, until now that data has existed in silos. There has been no easy way for me (as a user) to access and benefit from that data. The next big wave of Internet value creation will come to those companies that can deliver value based on the implicit use of these data sources - by taking advantage of these existing data repositories in novel ways.
Trend #2: Venture Capital 2.0. Venture Capital has underwritten most of the transformative software and Internet companies for the last twenty years. However, changing economics (for both startups and venture funds) combined with changing markets, will have a dramatic impact on the venture capital industry.
Joe Schoendorf:
Trend #1: Water tech will replace global warming as a global priority.
The world is running out of usable water and this will kill millions more people in our lifetime than global warming.
Trend #2: 80% of the world population will carry mobile internet devices within 5-10 years. Mobile internet devices are rapidly becoming THE leading product category.
Roger McNamee:
Trend #1: The mobile device industry’s migration from feature phones to smart phones will produce even greater disruption than what the PC industry experienced as it moved from character-mode to graphical interfaces. It will disrupt the competitive balance, with big market share shifts. Consumers will benefit from greater choice and lower prices.
Trend #2: Within five years, everything that matters to you will be available on a device that fits on your belt or in your purse. This will cause a massive shift in internet traffic from PCs to smaller devices.

I cannot wait for all the revelations at the The 2013 Integrity Toys Convention. Is someone gonna get refreshed? Will Adele go under the knife again for the third time? Who's gonna make a comeback? Nadja anyone? Are we going to see Elise Jolie? Is the FR2 2.0 the final refreshed version of the body? Are we going to see more modifications to the body? Will there be any FR Hommes? Darius, Lukas, Takeo? Will Janay look fiercer than last year? How wicked is the Color Infusion line going to be? Will Darla, Loni or an unproduced Poppy friend gonna make an appearance? We will soon find out.

Let's look at some of the "get" futures we'll probably have, like it or not.
NATIONALLY:
We will have managed to stay out of the world's second limited nuclear war - we've already had one.
It the State Department does not have a complete philosophic and personnel overhaul, we will have a costly conventional war, not with Russia, China, or the Arabs, but with Mexico.
The world's religions will try to get together without success.
Technology, which has had bursts in the 1880's, 1910's, the '40's and 50's, will blossom in the '80's, quit in the '90's, will return again in 2010. The chief technologies then will be biological engineering and agricultural. My field of electronics will slow down or come to a stop, but it will fuel revolutions in other technologies.
Computers will overload us with useless information and communiques. In 1960 I was very proud to put the company paper shredder in back of the company computer so we didn't have to read the damned stuff. Shortly, we'll hook computers together so that they will go into a giant boggling mind-screw we can ignore.
Junk phone calls are going to be a major problem but our phone answering machines will take care of that.
Computer controlled machines will greatly alter our manufacturing, middle class work and assembly labor. We should hail this as an emancipation from repetitious work, but we won't.
We will have lived through six recessions, two booms and four-year genuine bust.
The strategic petroleum reserve will be empty.
ESP will still be a mystery.
GROWTH:
The GMP [Growth Management Plan] has budgeted a 3% growth, but because of employee concessions and others we seem to have a 7% growth. That calculates in 40 short years that while we talk of a three-times increase in population, we will have a fifteen-times increase! Unfortunately, we probably have enough water, if we get nasty, to supply fifty times our present population. We could solve our employee housing problem by lowering our standards and codes, using mass-produced pre-fabs - but we won't.
If we really wish to limit growth, we will (or do??) provide disincentives and harrassments - perhaps more effective than GMP.
Limit electric power.
Shut down the airport - Santa Fe did.
Kill private transport.
Encourage surly waiters.
Not punish criminals.
Disrepair [Highway] 82.
Create sewage-cholera rumors.
Give away our water.
Increase $1,000-a-plate dinners.
Welcome the Shriners.
But - everything that we will do to discourage the perceived "bad guys" will also wound plenty of "good guys."

So here is my prediction for the recently Guardians of the Galaxy sequel! Also, I really hope the title of GOTG 2 is War of Kings! And I really hope that either Cosmo, Adam Warlock, Mantis, or Nova is added to the team.
For the Villains, I really hope that The Supreme Intelligence, The Skrulls, and Annihilus are the villains. But I\'m not sure if these characters are owned by Marvel Studios because these are also Fantastic Four characters. But it would be cool to see the Kree and Skrull war make the big screen!
What do you guys hope will happen in GOTG 2? Maybe you\'ll need to see the movie before you answer this question. I\'m going to the midnight premiere with Luigifan10!
"Chief of Aries, Jupiter and Saturn,
Eternal God what mutations?
Then by long century its maling time returns,
Gaul and Italy, what emotions?"
This text does not refer to a food famine, but to a spiritual confusion, which symbolizes the interest of many Christians in other religions and religious groups. They have chosen to adopt other beliefs in order to discover religious truth. This text concerns spiritual thirst. The human tide will decide to adopt the Catholic religion.
Nostradamus' predictions indicate that climate change will continue to affect our planet and that political leaders will reach an agreement to reduce air pollutant emissions.
The prophet announces that "We will see the waters rise and the earth collapse under them" in 2019. We will experience many climate changes during this period and the hurricanes that will ravage several regions of the United States will shape the grim landscape described by Nostradamus.
Many category 1 hurricanes will hit the United States in 2019, these phenomena will cause winds reaching 40 mph.
Americans residing in Florida, Texas and New Orleans will have to be prepared for severe weather. Andrew Cuomo, Governor of New York, also said, "Extreme weather conditions are a reality. We are experiencing storms of unprecedented violence.
Global warming will cause a large number of armed conflicts. A strategic decision will enable China to become the new world leader.
Two superpowers will fight during the Third World War and this conflict will last 27 years. Predictions indicate that the Third World War will begin after the death of the last Pope (the successor to Pope Benedict XVI) who will be assassinated by the antichrist.
"Mount Aventine will burn in the night:
The sky will darken in Flanders:
When the monarch chases away his nephew,
Church members will cause scandals."
This text probably refers to Saint Aventine, who is considered to be the protector of people suffering from mental disorders.
But it can also concern the Aventine, which is one of the Seven Hills of Rome. A (total) solar eclipse will take place on July 23, 2019 and this event could mark the beginning of the unrest that will affect the Catholic Church, but also all other Christian churches.
The assassination of the leader of the Catholic Church will cause chaos throughout the world and this event will take place in the following months.
People residing in the United States must be prepared for the "Great Earthquake". The subduction zone extends over more than 500 miles and the entire area between California (USA) and Vancouver Island (Canada).
Two tectonic plates come into contact in this area and one of them gradually sinks below the second (subduction).
The displacement of the Cascadia subduction zone will cause an earthquake whose magnitude could reach 8.0 to 8.6 degrees on the Richter scale, and if the fault is fully opened, this zone will suffer an earthquake whose magnitude could reach 8.7 to 9.2 degrees: "The Great Earthquake".
This phenomenon will ravage this region over 225,000 square miles. This area includes Seattle, Tacoma, Portland, Portland, Eugene, Salem (the capital of Oregon) and Olympia (the capital of Washington).
This area has more than 7,000,000 inhabitants. These people will suffer the most significant natural disaster in the history of the United States.
The prophet also announced that humans will be able to communicate with animals. The prophet announces that in 2019 "The pigs will become brothers to man". Some people think that this text announces that human beings will stop mutilating animals. Other people think it indicates that technology will allow us to communicate with animals.
Many advances will be made in the field of medicine. Medical innovations will increase human life expectancy. People who have read the prophecies of Nostradamus say that humans will be able to live up to 200 years
A prediction also contains the following sentence: "After the invention of a new engine, the world will return to the way it was before the creation of the Tower of Babel."
Many people think that this engine refers to the Internet and that this prediction indicates that technology will allow us to create a new global language. Other people think that this prediction concerns social networks that are constantly developing.
Nostradamus' prophecies announce that justice will be one of the most important themes of 2019.
His predictions also indicate that earthquakes and hurricanes are likely to affect many states in the United States (including Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and Texas).
These phenomena are expected to occur mainly during the months under the Earth's sign (January, April, July and October).
This year will not be a year that will be conducive to financial gains, but this inconvenience will prove useful as it will encourage us to take further steps to improve our situation.
During this period, we will have to make more efforts, opt for new strategies, avoid risky situations and become effectively informed, and also focus on the right methods to attract prosperity.
Our social life will be more active, we will devote more time to our relationships and we will meet new friends.
However, we will have to be careful because a new meeting could disrupt our relationship.
Stock market activities will be more successful during the summer and also during the fall. Researchers will make several interesting discoveries in the health field during 2019.
This period will encourage us to take better care of our health and take action to preserve our heart, circulatory system, stomach and pancreas.
It is therefore essential that we adopt a healthy diet and engage in relaxing activities, but also avoid sleeping in rooms located in the West (this concerns pregnant women and the elderly in particular) and reduce our stress.
Nostradamus was an apothecary fascinated by the occult, he almost provoked the anger of the Catholic Church when he predicted the future over a period of twenty centuries. Was he really a visionary or are his visions just myths?
This small dynamic man, endowed with a long thick beard, was in a state of disarray at the Court of King Henry II of France. Known as the son of a converted Jewish couple, passionate about astrology and the occult sciences, Nostradamus was invited to Paris in 1556 mainly to entertain the Court.
But it is the prophecies he has established about the king that will make him known throughout the world. One of them seemed both absurd and true, suggesting that a "blind man" would soon ascend the throne.
Another, both enigmatic and explainable, stated that: "The young lion will triumph over the eldest on the battlefield, in a single battle. He will pierce his eyes in the golden cage, two wounds in one, and suddenly he will give up his soul."
On June 1, 1559, when the king was participating in a tournament, by accident, the spear of his friend who was also his opponent, pierced the royal golden helmet before sinking into his eye. The unfortunate culprit, the Earl of Montgomery, was younger than the ruler. A splinter from the weapon caused a secondary wound, and the king was in great pain for ten days in a row, before he died.
Everyone remembered the words of Nostradamus. The leaders of the Roman Catholic Church would have preferred to burn this dangerous prophet alive, because they heavily condemned magicians and wizards. The peasants, who believed that his prophecies were actually curses, burned statuettes of him. It was only thanks to Queen Catherine de Médicis, now a widow, that he managed to escape execution.
Recluded in the dark
On the brink of civil war, France was the ideal environment for Nostradamus' enigmatic and obscure prophecies, which were published in 1555 - the first hundred of about 2000 that he would announce until 1557. These works met with immediate success, which enabled him to join the Court.
Nostradamus admitted that he deliberately opted for an "enigmatic language". He wrote his texts using obscure language, originating in the French language and including many Italian, Greek, Jewish and Latin expressions. Each of these predictions includes four verses and forms a quatrain that looks nothing like a poem.
The visionary said that this style of writing allowed him to escape the punishments inflicted by the powerful, who really did not like his texts.
Some skeptics admit that this vague style was deliberately chosen to allow readers to interpret the
texts. As a result, there are currently more than 400 different interpretations based on his prophecies. Each of them was established to explain prophecies dating back to 3797.
Nostradamus becomes Royal Advisor
The country seemed to be on the verge of a national conflict and many people, like Queen Catherine, did not need evidence to believe the apothecary's predictions were true. The prediction he had made concerning the death of the sovereign was more than enough to convince them. Convinced of his good faith, she had him appointed as the personal doctor of her son, Charles IX.
According to a famous story, Nostradamus once called upon an angel named Anael, and asked him to use a magic mirror to reveal to him the future of the queen's children. The mirror indicated that his three sons would temporarily rule the country and that their dishonoured son-in-law, Henri of Navarre, would occupy the throne for 23 years. Frightened by this show, the queen asked her to interrupt it.
In fact, it is likely that Nostradamus only visited her at the Court to make predictions for her and her children. Nostradamus seems gifted enough to describe his fateful visions using ambiguous formulas to protect himself from the wrath of the monarchs, for the latter did not hesitate to punish those who gave them bad news.
Predictions that herald a troubled century
Many experts who have studied Nostradamus' texts claim that they contain a large number of prophecies that evoke violent events of the contemporary era - the ascension of Hitler, the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and his brother Robert. The German people were convinced of the authenticity of the prophecies consecrated to the Third Reich.
In England and Germany, people also modified a series of quatrains and printed them before throwing them out of an airplane for use as propaganda tools.
And on the other hand, many people were convinced that one of his authentic quatrains announced the beginning of the war: "A bright fire and death hidden in globes will be terribly unleashed. At nightfall, enemy forces will destroy the entire city."
Interest in the prophet of rebirth was revived following the tragic events in Iran, when the Shah was banned by supporters of Ayatollah Khomeiny, who had previously been exiled to France. According to the translation, Nostradamus wrote: "Rain, famine and war will continue in Persia. A belief too deep will betray the monarch.
What started in France will end there, a secret sign will be locked up. "Was it a reliable prediction or a modified interpretation? Could it give credibility to another prophecy that was to be fulfilled in the future, one of the few that included a specific date?"
He predicted his own death
One of France's most famous poets, Pierre de Ronsard, wrote this about him: "Like an ancient oracle, he predicted much of our destiny for many years. The prophet had visibly earned the respect of the royal family and his fame extended even further until his death in 1566. Of course, some people were not convinced by his predictions or, worse, only saw him as an intelligent man who abused the credulity of others. Some researchers claim that Nostradamus also predicted his own death: "Near this bench and this bed, I will be found dead." Then one evening he announced that he would not survive the coming night. He was found dead in his room the next morning next to his office. His death was probably caused by gout.
Yesterday's prediction is already coming true. There was a huge blizzard today (in fact, it's still going on). I went outside to go for a walk, and I kept falling over because it was so windy. Also, the snowflakes were out to get me... actually, in this picture you can see the big one going for my jugular! But I warded them off deftly and made it back in one piece.
But now I'm feeling a lot better, sitting inside and watching the snowstorm out the window. The snowflakes look so small and harmless from in here, but I know the nasty truth about those little brutes...
This editorial, titled "Flying Machines Which Do Not Fly”, appeared on page 6 of the New York Times edition of Friday, October 9, 1903.
timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1903/10/09/issue.html
It was written in response to Samuel Langley's recent failed attempt at powered flight. The writer predicted that it would take humanity "from one million to ten million years" to develop a working flying machine 😊!
However, only 69 days later, on December 17, 1903, the Wright brothers successfully achieved the first heavier-than-air flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina!
