How Ace Attorney spawned one of the most enduring character ships ever

by

“The entire game revolves around these two men dancing around each other. The courtroom battles are like a tango, a back-and-forth exchange.”

That’s how Claire Stenger, senior narrative designer at Gameloft, describes the relationship between Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth. But anyone that’s played Capcom’s Ace Attorney games probably already knew that.

The relationship between the upbeat defense attorney and the aloof prosecutor has become one of the most popular character “ships” in video game fandom. (Shipping has been around since the ’60s heyday of Kirk and Spock, and usually refers to fans’ use of artwork, fanfiction, or memes to

Our neighbor’s buddleia is prospering a lot to the delight of bees, butterflies, hoverflies and wasps, and offering a feast of bugs for the birds.

Our personal backyard has overgrown within the heatwave as preparations for a particular arrival (we do not know but whether or not we can have a queen bee or a king drone) have taken precedence this summer time.

However we’ve made some large modifications to the backyard. The fish have gone to a greater place – somebody my mom discovered was in a position to rehome our goldfish in a powerful pond simply ten instances …

Swarm collecting tips from Tamsin Harris

by

This week I listened to a great talk for the West Cornwall Beekeepers Association by their member Tamsin Harris, who is a very experienced commercial worker. She came across as a practical person with a quick, dry sense of humour. The idea behind the talk was that more swarm collectors were needed, so the association was hoping for people to be encouraged to volunteer.

I’d left some equipment behind in the old location I used to keep bees, and hadn’t got around to moving it yet. Some new visitors took advantage of this des res – a brood box with a few frames in, a floor, and an inspection board acting as a roof, all piled up on top of a load of empty equipment. They’re against a wall and have a hedge and trees on the other side, providing shelter from the Cornish rain, and – in the last few days – the Cornish sun!

Sarah McLachlan has poked fun at her viral and emotional commercials to prevent animal cruelty in a new Super Bowl ad for Busch Light Beer.

The 30 second ad, which was released two weeks ahead of this year’s Super Bowl, began with the brand’s “Busch Guy” explaining a guide for surviving life out in the wilderness.

“Three things are required in the great outdoors: food, drink and shelter,” the company’s spokesperson said with a can of beer in his hand.

Right after the man said “shelter,” the commercial quickly showed McLachlan sitting in a tent while her song “Angel” began
