I don't think people understand just how bad this can get. If the US Defaults on its debts, there would be people lining up in the streets for soup, except the soup kitchen is closed due to lack of funding. That's how bad it would be.
More bad news. 88,000 people are reported missing from the Sendai region, with the death toll in the Miyagi prefecture alone estimated to be around 10,000.
Me too! Considering how important Angels have been to White it's actually kind of a surprise there hasn't been one yet. A Faerie Planeswalker would be a nice change of pace, a small cute Planeswalker would be fun to have (well, not all of Magic's faeries are cute...) And Dryads, hey, they can walk through forests, why not Planes!? I'm just worried if they did that her +1 would be "Target creature gains Forestwalk until end of turn" Or her ultimate would just give all your creatures Forestwalk (which CAN be powerful, but if that's all she did...) On the other hand, a Planeswalker that could also turn your opponents lands into Forests could be really interesting, and quite different from Garruk or Nissa. But that's only thinking narrowly, I'm sure they could do more with a Dryad Planeswalker. (preferably better than my ideas too)
As long as they slow down the amount of new male human planeswalkers, I'm okay...
So a Dryad Planeswalker would have one ability to search for forests, a second ability to give your creatures forestwalk while turning your opponents lands into forests in addition to their other land types, and maybe a third ability to give your creatures shroud?
An Angel Planeswalker should have damage prevention, protection from certain colors, and maybe creature revival?
A Rat Planeswalker should probably have some sort of discard or graveyard mechanic effect, an ability that works with the rat creature type, maybe a second ability that works with the rat creature type as well (target opponent loses life and sacrifices permanents equal to the number of rats under your control?), and/or the ability to make Rat Tokens.
A Faerie Planeswalker should be a card drawing/discarding/countering machine of cuteness and terror.
Lastly, a Squirrel Planeswalker should make Squirrel Tokens equal to the number of Squirrels in play, give Squirrels a Power/Toughness boost of some kind, and then the ability to give your Squirrels Deathtouch, Flying, First Strike, Haste, Lifelink, Trample, and Vigilance.
Sorin and Gideon as-is do seem weird for a coreset, but what are they really going to do with them? New cards for them all seems a bit odd, although it is truly what I want. Who knows. And to those saying TMS...not happening, if it does, I'll be sure to happily send my first M12 copy of TMS to the first person to reply to this post. Seriously.
I'll take you up on that offer.:D (It's always good to hedge your bets)
Not that I doubt you, but your link does not really emphasis a crack and meltdown. I see lots of "may haves."
I couldn't find a more up to date link (kinda sleep deprived atm).
Now, the thing here is that the "iodine & cesium" found can ONLY mean that the Reactor has catastrophically failed, as you'll only find those things outside of the reactor if the reactor is breached. There are a couple people who work in nuclear power on a few other forums confirming this.
Other sources (one in Japan atm) on a few other forums I visit state that there's been meltdown. I think that someone stated that the people on the scene are trying to, hold up, ah, here's the quote.
Japanese apparently planning a seawater kill attempt of the reactor. Has not been tried before, sounds like a last-ditch effort that would make the plant a total write-off.
That plus the blast plus the elements - this thing is melting into slag.
So yeah, the reactor failed, which means the anti-nuclear power vultures are going to have a field day inciting fear through bull☺☺☺☺ and over exaggeration. As I said earlier, this is just the beginning of a headache inducing bout of epic stupidity and fearmongering.
Yes, but it was not near the reactor itself as far as the facility goes. I am optimistic that the plants will make it through without any meltdowns or leaks.
Your optimism is going to take a hit then. One of the Reactors cracked and already is undergoing meltdown. They're still running containment on it atm (no new updates as of yet). It's not comparable to Chernobyl (regardless of what idiots might say), but it is comparable to Three Mile Island atm (an incident which sickened and killed ZERO people, not that most people are smart enough to already know that:rolleyes: ).
A deep and thought provoking question came upon me one day. Were a puppy and a kitten to get into a fight, which would be the winner?
Yes, that is right, a Puppy versus a Kitten. Both are of the same size, weight, and age. Both are also very fierce, very angry, and very much looking for a fight. Who is the most likely to win?
Sadly, the vultures in the anti-nuke crowd will be "Having a field day" screaming utter stupidity regarding "The inherent danger" having nuclear power plants and nuclear power in general. Why? One of the reactors in Japan (a reactor design from the 1970's mind you) took damage they could not prevent from escalating into something more serious. The facility had a steam explosion. This is going to be one long headache inducing bout of stupity to come.
Rat planeswalker? Nezumi Ninja Planeswalker please!
I would really like a Sphinx planeswalker too. Thinking about it, the only mono-blue Planeswalkers are both human males. I know, Tezzeret has his metal arm and etherium stuff, but he's still human as far as I know. I'd also like a Merfolk planeswalker! They brought Merfolk back, now it's time to give them a Planeswalker too!
A Treefolk planeswalker would be the coolest thing that could happen in Magic, lol.
Ever notice how the most prevalent creatures in MTG are also the creatures with Planeswalkers? We now have an excuse to ask for a Squirrel Planeswalker.:D
Don't deny it. In our blasphemous hearts, we desire the Planeswalker "Squirrelthulhu."
He can do battle with the Eldrazi for the title of MTG's most terrifying cosmic horror.:D
Considering Crows (along with a number of other birds) have a ☺☺☺☺ing language (the ability to transfer information across MULTIPLE generations denotes the main use of language, I.E. spreading information), that statement might not be as certain as we used to think it was. Plus, they're squirrels. Considering the most widely spread species across the multiverse are also the species that have Planeswalkers, the Squirrels having a few 'Walkers of their own makes some amount of (terrifying) sense.
I'm sorry, but destroying the world economy is NOT worth it. It's the equivalent of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Here we are shown the most likely reason for Hasbro to push for it to be reprinted.
Short term profits!
Brought to you by the people who made "out of context" a household word.:D
You do realize I'm the one that initially pointed out the difference between the two words, right?:raise:

No wonder the damn things are everywhere.
