Here's some questions, Please answer either "yes", meaning you agree with the statement, or "no", meaning you disagree with the statement.

1) Do you believe that it's ones motives, not the consequences that make their actions morally correct?

2) Do you believe you an action is morally correct if and only if it is morally correct for everyone to perform that action?

3) Do you believe you should treat every person as a human being, not a mere tool?

4) Do you believe that in order for an action to truly be moral it must have been done because it is the morally just to do, and not that it was just coincidentally moral?

Seeing that Aaiko asked(actually, begged) for someone to do a review of his latest game, I figured that I would step up to the task.

Feval is an Action/Strategy game based around squirrels with explosive nuts...err, acorns. Players have to blow all of the other squirrels up on the map, without being killed blowing themselves up.


(battle atop a fiery volcano)

Gameplay: 10. This game is highly addicting, challenging, as well as being fun. Feval makes use of several power-ups, ranging from making the Acorn's explosion bigger, to a pill that makes you see imaginary acorns. It also has a dozen maps, each with it's own design and theme(varying from the forest, to a city, and even atop a volcano), as well as it's own challenges(such as quicksand, or a giant snowball crushing you).

The games have a varying amount of time(depending on the map) before they go into Sudden Death, where acorns will appear on the map and explode. The longer you last in sudden death, the more acorns will appear. Also, if a player kills another player, the dead player comes back as a ghost, and has a chance to reclaim his life.


(There's a deep, dark enjoyment in blowing up snowpeople)

Presentation: 9. The game is presented beautifully, with completely original graphics as well as sound. Also, the maps are laid out beautifully, each with [nearly] unique graphics, all completely original of course.

Originality: 10. I don't know how much more original a concept you can get than squirrels with exploding nuts. Feval also makes use of "achievements", which unlock items that your squirrel can wear. Players can also customize the color of the items, as well as the whole squirrel. There's also a ranking system based around collecting special(small orange) acorns, which accumulate over time.


(I see this screen way too many times)

Overall: 10. Feval is a great game, and is a great way to spend the afternoon(or in my case, the past month). Feval can be found here:

First off, let me explain what the challenge is, and the background. Brother Ross, an evangelical preacher, comes to ECU(my college) every week. He comes into the center of campus, and "preaches the gospel", which is that everyone who isn't an evangelical christian is going to Hell.

My challenge is that if you ever get the chance to visit ECU when he's here, see how long it is before he condemns you to a life in the eternal fires of Hell. If you don't have that opportunity, please see if you last through these two videos at the very least. I'll let everyone know that I'm going to Hell because I wear shorts(if you show your knees in public....HELL!).




Oh, one last thing. Most students use him as a free source of entertainment, myself included.

Kay Hagan took Elizabeth Dole's(NC) seat in the US Senate. To be honest, I cared more about this race than I did about the presidential race. Dole was a sore on the foot of this state, and was holding us back. She tried running on the "I am a North Carolinian" point, but didn't work because she's never here. Then, she resorted to trying to attack Hagan's political policies. When THAT didn't work, she resorted to attacking Hagan's faith.

The last strategy blew up in her face, which made me feel all fuzzy inside. So I'm going to party hard tomorrow in celebration.

Earlier today. I was still deciding on who I wanted to vote for when I entered the poll. So, I crammed a couple thoughts at the last minute, and casted my vote for...

General George S. Patton.

Now, I know nearly everyone thinks I threw away my vote, but in reality I didn't. It's your civic duty to VOTE, yes, but I don't have to go along with causes I don't believe. I'll explain my decision, although I'm sure I'll be criticized.

1) I despise the two-party system. George Washington said they would be the downfall of our country, and I'm more and more thinking that he was dead-on. It's sad when candidates use "reaching across the aisle" as a point to show they're DIFFERENT. People should vote on the issues, and being a party member only suggest you conform to a cause you probably don't wholly agree with.

2) Neither of the candidates earned my vote. I feel a candidate should show me why I should vote for them, not that I shouldn't vote for anyone else. Negative politics just sicken me, and any time I hear one candidate bashing another I think about gouging my eyes out.

3) Both candidates proved I shouldn't vote for them. By in large, I don't like Obama's health care plan. I think that should stay privatized. of course, I'm also against giving out welfare to people who aren't legitimately handicapped. So on the issues, we don't exactly agree. McCain managed to make me just laugh at him after he chose Palin. Seriously, Bush with boobs is not the person I want taking over after McCain kicks the bucket.

4) Third party Candidates are no better than voting for Patton. I debated on which other candidate I would vote for, and honestly, none deserve my vote. Patton, on the other hand, deserves much more than one posthumous vote. Seriously, the man was a freaking military genius.
