I still can’t decide, is it worth getting Witcher 2 preorder? Or wait til it drop in price to $40 or so. The first game was good, but I didn’t get sucked into it as much as I hoped. It looks like the story in the 2nd game is improved though. But playing as Geralt isn’t the same as playing your own char in ME either… he’s quite a strange guy even in the books that I read. Kinda fun though. Blah indecisiveness.

Quote reblogged from The Economist
From the article:
In one survey a fifth of Korean middle and high school students said they felt tempted to commit suicide. In 2009 a tragic 202 actually did so. The suicide rate among young Koreans is high: 15 per 100,000 15-24-year-olds, compared with ten Americans, seven Chinese and five Britons.
Also from the article, however:The exam’s importance prompts children to pay attention in class and parents to hound them about their homework; and that, in turn, ensures that Korea’s educational results are the envy of the world. The country is pretty much the leading nation in the scoring system run by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). In 2009 it came fourth after Shanghai, Singapore and Hong Kong, but those are cities rather than full-sized countries.
Would more suicides make a good trade for a more successful national work force, based on education?Every year South Korea comes to a halt on the day of the university entrance exams, for it is the most important day in most South Koreans’ lives. The single set of multiple-choice tests that students take that day determines their future. But the “one-shot” society carries a heavy cost. (via theeconomist)
