Leave a comment

A reporter for a local Chinese station interrupted her make up session in preparation for her wedding to cover the earthquake in the city of Ya’an on Saturday, the worst earthquake of it’s kind since the one 2008, killing 11,000.

She immediately started to interview people on the street, despite the fact she was wearing a full wedding dress. This was her report (as seen on Sky News):

“I am standing at the Holiday Plaza. Fifteen minutes ago, a strong quake struck.”

“But there haven’t been casualties in this area where I am standing…our residents in Ya’an have taken effective measures to prevent damages. I hope our city will be safe”

The video of the report went viral, some even calling her ‘the most beautiful bride in the world’.

After the report, which included 10 minute of interviews, she went back to complete the wedding, and then went to work straight afterwards.

Pokémon Colosseum – Chuggaaconroy

“In the new Orre region, a sinister organization is capturing Pokémon and misusing them. It’s up to you to restore balance. Seek out all the Shadow Pokémon, snag them, and restore their spirit.”

First released in Japan in 2003, the Nintendo GameCube game “Pokémon Colosseum” follows the standard path of battles like the N64 Stadium games. The game gives players an option to connect their Game Boy Advance games; Pokémon Sapphire and Pokémon Ruby, so as to use their team in the “battle mode”.

Pokémon: Gale of Darkness – giancarloparimango11

“The game once again takes place in the Orre region, about five years after the events of Colosseum. In their second attempt at world domination, the criminal organization Cipher has created a Shadow Lugia, codenamed XD001, claimed to be immune to purification. A young Trainer, Michael, aims to defeat Cipher and prevent their plans.”

Gale of Darkness is the second, lesser known follow up to Colosseum. If you have this to play through, you should keep hold of it! It’s a collectable.
