HTTP:: A Gamer 039 s Week 20 27 September
--------
This week, Nintendo finally announced that the Wii would be receiving a price cut to 199 dollars, which means that all the current-generation consoles are now cheaper than in August. It's a good sign for the gaming industry in the run up to Christmas, but surely not the only news you need to take into account this week. Monday was a day of confirmations. On the one hand, BioShock 2 was confirmed by 2K as arriving in February 2010, while Blizzard told us what we already know, namely that the long development time and delays were a way of creating truly great experiences, like Diablo III and Starcraft II. On Tuesday, Relic announced that Dawn of War II was set to get more Warhammer 40,000 goodness, with Chaos Rising introducing the Chaos Marines and a full, new campaign of 20 missions. Meanwhile, the guys at Infinity Ward said that Modern Warfare 3 was not in any way in development. Wednesday was a day of oddities, as Microsoft priced the Sergeant Johnson DLC for Halo 3: O!
DST, which was part of the pre-order package, at close to 1,200 dollars. Another oddity was a leaked document that detailed how SEGA and Sony could collaborate on bringing Dreamcast games to the PlayStation 3. Thursday, we talked about innovative marketing for Need for Speed: Shift, which is being advertised by Electronic Art...

Pingie: HTTP:: Teen Diet Influenced by Social Background

HTTP:: Teen Diet Influenced by Social Background
--------
According to a new investigation funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), it may be that teenagers' diet and eating habits are heavily influenced by their social background. The paper essentially shows that the diet, weight and health of teens is directly influenced by practices and perceptions of different social classes, and is the first research ever to reveal this association. Policymakers have for a long time insisted that such investigations be conducted, so that informed decisions on the matter could be taken, e! Science News reports. “It is evident that children are molded according to their parents' expectations about behavior,” explains the leader of the new research, University of Hertfordshire expert Dr. Wendy Wills. By looking at the diets, weight levels and health statuses of middle class teens and their parents, the expert says that a clear conclusion about the ideals and beliefs of the family can be successfully drawn. The parenting s!
