Hello all!

I just bought a Dsi for $20. This is my first Nintendo device since the Gameboy pocket.

So what's a good first game to get acclimated to the DS? I got The world ends with you, but there is a lot going on and I'm having trouble keeping up and want something a bit easier haha.

Any suggestions? Thanks

@slag:

Gold did play a big role in the 1873 depression. There was a run on gold internationally, which led to a huge outflow from the U.S. Treasury. The US abandoned silver in 1873. This hurt people who had silver dollars. Even when silver is put back in circulation in 1878, it's never as good as gold. So everyone always wanted gold. Hence, the outflows.

We did start to ease off the Gold Standard during the Great Depression. The Federal Government could now set the price of gold. This rose the price of gold, which increased the money supply , which allowed banks to lend more.

Brenttonwoods had every countries currency pegged to the dollar, and the US was pegged to gold. The US was the most stable country 1944 when Brenttonwoods was put in place.

We didn't fulling abandon the gold standard until 1971.

There was an international trend with abandoning the gold standard and that country recovery time during the great depression.

As a Economics Major w/ a minor in 20th century History, I'd say your list is definitely a reflection of your ideology rather than a list based on accomplishments or what was right for the time.

The gold standard is widely credited for the length of the Great Depression. A national bank is a good thing. The Fed and the establishment of the FDIC gave people a reason to trust banks in the 1930s.

It's the best MGS game, so stick with it. The story and the boss keep getting better. The End is still one of my favorite boss fights ever.

I'm on the path to being successful. Going to be graduating in June with a degree in Economics from a good school. I'm hoping that well put in a position to get a good job and start paying back my loans.

Going through school was not without its challenges. I spent 3 years in Junior College. Transferred intending to do Computer Science, then promptly got my ass kicked by school, and stumbled through my first year at University. Had to make it up in summer by borrow money from my folks, then barely was allowed to come back. Spent a quarter there, then got kicked out. Did summer session again, switched majors to Econ, and now I'm going to graduate.

I did it the hard and stupid way, but I'm glad I toughed it out I guess. Still thinking about going to a state school and pursuing Computer Science though.

1) Go to Bi-Rite and get some ice cream. 2) Then go to Mitchell's and get some more ice cream.

I've tried to like them, but they haven't caught me yet.

I would recommend: Portugal. The Man, The Arctic Monkeys, Mac Demarco, Starfucker, Of Montreal, and Tokyo Police Club. Some of my recent favorites.

Because America didn't come and save the day in the case of Mao or Stalin, therefore film goers can't feel good about themselves after the movie is over.

Hanging out with friends, roller coasters, the simpsons, stand-up comedy, and sunshine.
