    The Game Boy Advance (often shortened to GBA) is a 32-bit handheld video game console developed, manufactured and marketed by Nintendo. It is the successor to the Game Boy Color. It was released in Japan on March 21, 2001; in North America on June 11, 2001; in Australia on June 22, 2001, in Europe on June 22, 2001; and in the People's Republic of China on June 8, 2004 (excluding Hong Kong). In 1996, magazines including issues 53 and 54 of Total! and the July 1996 issue of Game Informer featured reports of a new Game Boy, codenamed Project Atlantis. Although the expected release date of "early 1997" would make that machine seem to be the Game Boy Color, it was described as having "a 32-bit RISC processor" and "allowing similar to Super Nintendo Entertainment System standard games-playing to be played in the palm of your hand"—a description that more closely matches the Game Boy Advance. It is also may have referred to the unnamed, unreleased Gameboy Color successor prototype that was revealed at 2009's Game Developer's Conference.

Backward compatibility for Game Boy and Game Boy Color games is provided by an 4/8 MHz Z80 co-processor, while a link port at the top of the unit allows it to be connected to other devices via use of a Nintendo Game Link cable or GameCube cable. When playing Game Boy or Game Boy color games on the Game Boy Advance, the L and R buttons can be used to toggle between a stretched widescreen format (240x144) and the original screen ratio of the Game Boy (160x144). All Nintendo handheld systems that have been released since (the SP and Micro versions of the Game Boy Advance, as well as the Nintendo DS, DS Lite and DSi) have included a built-in light and rechargeable battery.[citation needed] the game boy advance is also the second form of the game boy color.

    When you ride off-road, whether it be Supercross, Motocross, Freestyle, GNCC, Enduro, WORCS, or just play riding, it is obvious to all that a top-quality helmet is an extremely important piece of equipment. M2R literally stands for “Made 2 Race,” which means that M2R makes their helmets to meet or exceed the highest standards. But M2R helmets are also reasonably priced, making them an exceptional choice for all riders. Take the SX PRO for example. The SX PRO is M2R’s entry-level Snell-certified off-road helmet. It features graphics by Platinum 1 Designs and retails for $89.95. It also comes standard with a removable interior liner. When you consider the beating a helmet can take from a beginning rider, and the fact that it is a good idea to replace your helmet after a hard knock, that $89.95 price tag becomes very appealing. At the top of the M2R line is the Revelation X2 helmet, the newest member of which is the Rev X2 Pastrana Replica. Travis Pastrana has become an icon for the Extreme Generation. Travis is a great racer (with a 125cc Motocross National Championship and a 125cc Supercross title under his belt) and the King of Freestyle (with more X-Games and Gravity Games gold medals than we need to count) and also is the subject of films, videos games and action figures. What fan wouldn’t want a helmet just like his? The Rev X2 borrows technology from its older brother, the Revelation, to create the world’s lightest (only 1275 grams) Snell M2000-certified helmet. Just think how important a lightweight helmet is when your customer is in the third hour of a GNCC or the eighth hour of a Baja ride. The Rev X2 features the new Advantax stabilizer as well as a re-designed chrome chin piece and the new “Tru-Fit” interior. The helmet, which is available in sizes XS to XXL, also features a Multiple Inclusion Technology (MIT) shell and a removable Rideflex interior. In addition to the Pastrana Replica, the Rev X2 also comes in Langston, Patriot, Blackfoot and Honda replicas, all of which retail at the affordable price point of $249.95. An Aggressive Designs Team Series version is available for $199.95. M2R helmets can cover all of your customer’s off-road needs, from the beginning rider to the hard-core racer. Call your Parts Unlimited rep today and stock up on the new line of M2R helmets.

    By David Dixon, Optionetics.com Published: July 20, 2007 9:30 AM EST I have to tell you that throughout the past two months I’ve been getting a little frustrated. I’m just not making money as easily, which tends to tell me that this market has changed. Previously I was participating in a strongly trending market, where money seemed to just flow into the trading account. At the moment it’s hard to hold a position for more than three days, whereas before I was holding positions for three weeks or so. The style of trading that I adopt is more that of an end-of-day trader who takes his entries off the intra-day chart. The three things that are important to me are entry, trade management and exit or profit target. Entry into the trades has not been a problem, but where I’m getting knocked out is on trade management. For this reason investigatory work is called for, and there is no better place to look than our ASX Sectors.

    By Chris Tyler, Optionetics.com Published: July 20, 2007 11:30 AM EST MARKET ANALYSIS A bit more leftover financial fireworks and a major benchmark finally tagged have the bulls cheering. Entering Friday’s session, though, a “GOOG” week has turned slightly defensive, spearheaded by a couple of heavyweight slimming down on disappointing earnings. For the three-day period, the S&P500 ($SPX) and NASDAQ ($COMPQ) are up .23% to .84% on expiration-related levels of profit taking, snapping up shares and everything in between. Once more July has continued to be a good one for the bulls. Although and yet again, it hasn’t been a straight line in delivering its record-breaking gains in many of our most notorious market barometers. For the bulls, leadership from the semiconductor (SMH) sector, courtesy of Novellus’ (NVLS) better-than-feared results have aided their efforts. All-time-highs and percentage gains of 1.85% to 3.15% in the ever-strong energy complex (XLE, OIH) has also helped secure “Dow 14!” headlines as of Thursday’s close. IBM’s (IBM) well-received earnings beat did its part as well as fresh five-year highs and price-weighted gains of 5.65% are certainly of importance to the fore mentioned benchmark. And of course, typical bullish biases which also seems to reawaken during expiration week might be considered as decent fuel for getting investors Not helping the bulls, but thus far being outmanned by the factors above, financial (XLF, IAI) shares continue to lag badly. More woes on the subprime front courtesy of Bernanke’s monetary address, a “nearly worthless” announcement by Bear (BSC), related downgrades (JPM, GS, MS, LEH), higher loan-loss provisions and more disappointing reports on housing have continued to make the market’s most heavily-weighted sector one of its leading laggards. Entering Friday’s session, oil prices hovering near $76-a-barrel and about 2% from its all-time contract highs, has yet to make a negative impact on Wall Street. Incidentally, neither has Google (GOOG), at least as far as CNBC seems to be concerned. Last night the internet behemoth missed earnings, which sent shares tumbling by more than 6%. Put another way and even more psychologically hard-to-handle, 40 points were shaved off its still very, very large market heft. Somewhat interesting, the bulls at CNBC have opted to apparently remove that bit of nastiness from today’s pre-game show, the details of which can be found later this morning in the Market Beat.
