Reggie’s New Leaf house and Town Pass Card
I’m disappointed that I forgot to take advantage of this, but Nintendo invited E3 attendees to hang out near its booth and receive the Animal Crossing: New Leaf home for Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime via StreetPass. AngryGiraffe, though, was able to get a peek at his virtual home.
Apparently he sleeps on bedsheets and pillowcases that have his own face on them…
There were like a million Animal Crossing things I wanted to post during E3 but didn’t get a chance to, so expect a lot more New Leaf junk.

In Animal Crossing, the player is able to dig up strange, musical figures called Gyroids on a day after it rains. Usually, there are 3 of them buried around town. No one is sure why they appear, but they do.
In the Japanese versions of the AC games, Gyroids are called Haniwa, which have a special meaning in themselves: Haniwa (埴輪) are terracotta clay figures which were made for ritual use and buried with the dead as funerary objects during the Kofun period (3rd to 6th century AD) of the history of Japan.
Basically, Gyroids are gifts that are buried with people who have died. The reason that Gyroids appear after a rainy day is because when it rains, the soil becomes loose, wet, and may erode. Thus revealing past graves and other things (fossils) in the ground that have been buried.
In Kujji, to honor those animals or people who have passed away, Mayor Ary has decided to mark their graves properly, hoping that they are resting peacefully and that they are missed, even though they are complete strangers to her.
I made a special pattern just for this quirk of mine. Now I’m sharing it with everyone who may be interested in doing the same thing that I am! ^^;
And thus, Animal Crossing creepyness is resurfaced.

This is an example of supercooling – the process by which a very pure liquid is chilled to a temperature just below its usual freezing point without actually making the jump to its solid state. Bottled water is perfect for this, especially the kind that’s been purified via reverse osmosis, a process that strips water of all its particulates. This particulates can act as “seed crystals,” or “nuclei,” to which a liquid phase on the cusp of becoming solid can attach, and crystalize around. In this video, a seed crystal is introduced in the form of a cube of already-frozen water. As soon as it’s introduced, the liquid phase rapidly crystallizes and attaches to the solid one, kicking off a chain reaction of ice-formation.Water that freezes as it’s being poured out of the bottle also solidifies upon exposure to a seed crystal, which, in this case, is an already-frozen surface. This is similar to the effect observed when freezing rain, supercooled by its flightpath through sub-freezing layers of atmosphere, comes into contact with an object cooled to a temperature below freezing. The result is a phenomenon known as glaze-ice, which – if you live somewhere cold – you may have seen before, coating the spindly extremities of tree branches.

raw flour can carry salmonella too, for people who worry about eating raw cookie dough enough to make this.
