Introduction And General Information | \==++====++====++====++====++====<<##0##>>====++====++====++====++====++==/ \==++====++==/ \==++====++==/ My name is Robert Allen Rusk and I am a hardcore gamer with about 30+ years of gaming experience. I am an ex-gametester (Broderbund Software, LucasArts Games, Point Of View Computing) and an ex-arcade attendant (Namco Cyberstation - Pier 39, San Francisco, CA). I also own multiple systems such as the Sega Dreamcast, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Atari Jaguar, PlayStation 1 and 2, Xbox, and Xbox 360. I started writing guides in 2003 because I felt it was something I could do utilizing my writing skills gained in college and gametesting along with my passion for vidgames. Over time I have honed my overall writing and organization skills plus my creative thinking skills. Additionally, I have extended the play value of the games I have written guides and FAQs for many times over plus I have received many letters from all over the world. I am also what one may call an RGB Analog Video enthusiast. I hack most of my game consoles to try to get the best possible video from them and that usually involves tapping into the RGB Analog video signals and using them on the right monitors to achieve my desires. To this end I became a member of the GamesX.com mod forum and I post on their "RGB + Video Discussions" forum area from time to time. In addition, I am a member of the X-Otic Computer Systems of San Antonio (www.xcssa.org), a group who specializes in Linux, Mac, and other systems. We are also a group of hackers and electronics enthusiasts. I am also a regular forum poster at GameFAQs, an occasional poster at AtariAge, Digital Press, GTA Forums, and Video Game Saga. I am also a member of The MoFaT (a members only message board set up by "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" players who met on the Vice City message boards at GameFAQs). Outside of gaming, my interests include "Godzilla" (I have been a G-Fan since the age of ten) and "Red Dwarf". I am also a long time soundtrack collector with many titles in my possession. As far as favorite sports teams go, my teams are the San Antonio Spurs (NBA) [the local team], the Denver Broncos (NFL) [although I live in Texas, I am originally from Colorado Springs, Colorado] and the Air Force Falcons (NCAA Football). This guide was constructed using BBEdit Lite 6.1 and a Power Mac Workgroup Server. It is now being maintained using TextWrangler on an Apple Mac Mini. I view my work in Safari to help in seeing how it would look on the web and correct format errors. For this particular document I placed the PlayStation 2 (Original) version of Vice City into my Mac's DVD-ROM drive. From there, I copied the file called "american.gxt" to the hard drive. Then I opened it up in BBEdit Lite and removed most of the weird garbage with the Find and Replace feature. After that then I went through the document and found the stuff I did not recognize from all the hours spent playing Vice City. That stuff was copied to another text document for further sorting and processing. /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >GEN1. About The FAQ | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ Welcome to my Vice City Hidden Text FAQ! This FAQ goes over the large amount of text that was written up but was not used in the game but was buried instead of removed. This was also done on GTA3 and San Andreas. Vice City has more hidden text than GTA3 but has far less than San Andreas. The material being presented here is actual text found on the game disc in the file called "american.gxt". I did not make any of it up and if you put it your computer and open it up in a text editor you can see it for yourself. What I have done here is sort everything out as best I could so I can properly present it. In the process of sorting the text I tried to find out who says what and what was supposed to happen within the sequence of events. Some of the text was easy to sort through and some of it was very difficult. Originally I placed the Hidden Text section at the end of my Vice City guide. But after the success of my San Andreas Hidden Text FAQ I decided to put the hidden text from Vice City into its own FAQ so I can streamline my Vice City guide. /==++====++==\ /==++====++==\ /==++====++====++====++====++====<<##0##>>====++====++====++====++====++==\ | >VCT2.

The Introduction | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ For starters here's an slightly different version of the opening movie text (taken from where Ken picks up Tommy at the Airport): Ken: "Hey, hey, guys! It's, uh, Ken Rosenberg here! Hey! Heh, heh, hey, great, hey! Well, uh, I'm gonna drive you guys to the meet, okay? Now, I've talked to the suppliers and they are very, huh-ha, keen to start a business relationship, so, uh, if all goes well, we should, uh, be doing very nicely for ourselves, which is, y'know... good.. Okay, so. They're brothers, okay. One operates the uh, the business, and the other one does the flying. Now they operate out of Mexico, They own a farm in Panama. Okay, all right, listen - you guys, when we get there should I stay in the car, or do you guys want me to come in with you guys?" Tommy: "No. Stay in the car." Ken: "You know what, I thought about it, I'm gonna watch the car." .....later, at the meet: Ken: "Ok, that's them in the chopper. All right, here's the deal. They want a straight exchange on open ground. All right? Ok. Stay tight, let's go. All right. Take it easy, now. I'm right here. The cars running, baby! Got it?" Dealer: "100% pure grade-A Colombian, my friend. The greens?" Tommy: "Tens and twenties...used." .....then, the ambush: Tommy: "Go on, get out of here! Drive!" ......back at Ken's office: Ken: "Screwed! We're screwed! This is soo typical, I poke my head out of the gutter for one freakin' second, and fate shovels shit in my face! Well, screw you!" Tommy: "Shut your face and quit complaining! You're alive, aren't ya'? Drop me right up here. Go dump the car, then go get some sleep. I'll drop by your office tomorrow and we can start sorting this mess out." Ken: "OK, that's a good idea, I'll get some sleep. What are you gonna do?" Tommy: "Make my way back to my hotel, clear my head, and figure this crap out. OK." /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >HTX2. Another Mission From Avery | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ Avery Carrington had some additional work you could've done: Avery: "Hey Tommy, it's Avery! Now listen, I got me all tied up at the moment and I have a representative of mine needs chaperoning out to the Gator Keys. I'm after some land out that way, so I'm sending someone out to sweeten the deal. Could you do me a favor and make sure he gets there ok?" Tommy: "Yeah, sure thing Avery. Where'd you want me to pick him up?" Avery: "He's just finishing some business at the building site. I said you'd pick him up from there." Tommy: "No problem. See you later, Avery." /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >HTX3. An Additional Mission For Diaz (?) | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ This group of text was bunched with some stuff concerning Diaz. I had a couple of readers, Finke and Pawe, note that some of this text appears in the missions "The Fastest Boat" and "Rub Out". Another reader, X99, suggested that some of these lines were also from the mission "Rub Out". It unclear at this time if all of this text is used in just those missions: "Hope you fall and break your neck!" "I'm sick of these pricks." "See those marker boys? Try taking out the lights!" "You sure is better at shooting than talking." "Thanks. You're a real charmer yourself." "I Know, Tommy." "You cool with Kenny Loggins?" "Hell, I love this record" "You killed Lance!" "Don't shoot, dude!" "What's in this stuff?" "He's taking the boat. Bummer." "Help! Some square's stealing the boat, man!" "Uugghh! That's the last of them." "I'm going to start her up." "I think we've got some new friends." "Yeah." "Do you know where we're going?" "Are we lost?" "We got some competition!" "Take 'em out!" "It's time for the Lance Vance Dance!" "They're matchwood! And fish food." "We made it! Those other boats ain't VIP class." "They're getting desperate!" "My damn feet are wet! WE'RE TAKING ON WATER!" "Bridge coming up!" "Bail out, she's about to blow!" "Good shooting." "You killed Lance!" "Go on Tommy, I'll be ok!" "Eat this, you murdering bastards!!" "I'm pinned down!" "I got you covered Tommy!" "Hey, this is a real nice herbaceous border." "Hey Tommy, can my room have a view of the bay?" "Beautiful high ceilings in here...Lance! I need cover!" "Diaz must be inside!" "Lance!" /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >HTX4. Ken Rosenberg's Advice | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ Then there's this piece of advice from Ken Rosenberg after you start acquiring properties: Ken: "Hey Tommy, I thought you might need some business advice. Once you got an operation up and running, you'll need to drop by and take the week's cash. Let the guys think they got the run of the place and they'll try shaving the profits - ok?" Tommy: "Hey, I know how to handle business, Ken, ok?" Ken: "Ok, ok. I know, you know. I know. I was, I was just, you know, telling you I know, that you know, that I know. Just keeping it sharp baby!" Tommy: "Whatever, Ken, whatever..." /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >HTX5. Conversations With Kent Paul | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ Rockstar had some additional conversations between Kent Paul and Tommy that were dropped for some reason: 0===============0 | Conversation 1 \ 0================================> Kent: "Hey there Tommy, you're gonna love me mate. A little birdy told me that Vice City SWAT Division has a deposit box at a certain rather large banking establishment, where they keep all the bribes they've taken over the years, like some kind of old boys' retirement fund. Of course, if this information should ever help you acquire any of that cash, I guess you'd feel obliged to push some of it my way?" Tommy: "I'll bear that in mind, thanks Kent." Kent: "It's Paul. I'm from Kent, near London, you prat." Tommy: "My provincial English geography ain't what it was." ++NOTE: This might explain the "SWAT Retirement Fund" line within the mission "The Job". 0===============0 | Conversation 2 \ 0================================> Kent: "Tommy, mate, it's Paul, from Kent, a couple of proper sorts have your name written all over them, down at the Malibu." Tommy: "What are you talking about?" Kent: "Sorts. Birds. You know. Girls. Tastey ones, don't think they're brasses or nothing. You gotta come check them out." 0===============0 | Conversation 3 \ 0================================> Kent: "Tommy V, It's KP here. Kent Paul. Word on the street is people want to rip you off. Keep your eye's peeled, my son. And remember, I didn't say nothing to you about this." /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >HTX6. An Introduction From Umberto Robina | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ Rockstar had an alternate version of the initial phone call between Tommy and Umberto Robina: Umberto: "Hello, is this Mr. Tommy Vercetti?" Tommy: "Yes." Umberto: "Well, I hear through the vine of grapes you the man when someone got a vermin infestation." Tommy: "Maybe..." Umberto: "Well, I got a real vermin infestation. Haitians everywhere. My name is Umberto Robina and I want you to meet me at the Cafe Robina as soon as you can, 'cause I tell you, these damn Haitians gone too far this time." /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >HTX7. Mr. Moffat | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ This would've been a cool mission if Rockstar had decided to implement it: Moffat: "Vercetti? VERCETTI!! Damn you man, you've got to help me!" Tommy: "Mr. Moffat? How's family life?" Moffat: "Damn you to hell, HELL, do hear me?!" Tommy: "Well it was nice chatting..." Moffat: "WAIT! Wait, Vercetti - Tommy, can I call you Tommy? We're both businessmen, yeah? You know a good deal when you hear one, ok?" Tommy: "I don't have time to chat, get to the point." Moffat: "MONEY. Money is the goddamned point. I've escaped the coop again, but it's never long before they track me down - they think it's a damned game! I'm at a pay phone somewhere in this god forsaken shit hole. Get me out of here before they take me back and...and..oh go-o-od..." Tommy: "Well, I'm busy for the next -" Moffat: "No! Don't shit with me here, have a heart! No man should have to do such, such things. I'm on my knees here Tommy, in the dirt begging you please..." Tommy: "I guess I could swing by that way, see if I can spot you..." Moffat: "Oh god, they're coming. For the love of Christ hurry, hurry!" /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >HTX8. Sunshine Autos | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ Apparently Tommy took on a little more than just Sunshine Autos: Stranger: "Mr. Vercetti? I have here a signed piece of crap stating that you have taken on all of BJ's Auto's debts. With BJ's sudden disappearance I have no choice but to hold you responsible for his financial insecurities. Until this account is settled in full you should consider Vice City's streets to be very unfriendly." /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >HTX9. An Additional Mission For Interglobal Films | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ Then there's this exchange between Steve Scott and Tommy that was part of a mission that was dropped: Steve: "Look, I gotta ask you a favor." Tommy: "Steve! How's filming going!" Steve: "Fine, fine. I, heh, WE need a car chase scene, but our budget can't stretch to it. I've left some wheels around town. You'll know what to do." Tommy: "Ok Steve, I'll keep an eye out. Catch you later." /=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=\ /=========================================================================\ | >HTX10. Tommy And Mercedes | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ Then there are these gems between Tommy and Mercedes: 0===============0 | Conversation 1 \ 0====================================================================> Mercedes: "Hiya Tommy!" Tommy: "Hi Mercedes, howyadoin'?" Mercedes: "I got a new apartment up in Vice Point - thought you might want to drop by sometime." Tommy: "I'd love to. I'll catch you later." 0===============0 | Conversation 2 \ 0====================================================================> Mercedes: "Tommy, it's me." Tommy: "Hi Mercedes." Mercedes: "Tommy, I so bored, when we going to have some fun?" Tommy: "What do you mean?" Mercedes: "Well, I know you're busy fighting and killing and corrupting people, but I just want to have some fun. So don't forget about me, you hear?" 0===============0 | Conversation 3 \ 0====================================================================> Mercedes: "Tommy, I hear you kill Ricardo Diaz. There was an unfortunate fire at his mansion. I think he burnt to death in an acrylic shirt. Tommy, I so proud of you. I knew you were a real man. He awful trouser stain of a man, you make me so proud to be your friend. No, I know you going to be busy trying to take over this town, but don't forget about me, you hear?" 0===============0 | Conversation 4 \ 0====================================================================> Mercedes: "It's Mercedes. I no longer love you Tommy. I no longer do. Honest. 'cause you no longer nice to Mercedes. You no longer treat her like a lady. You ignore me and I hate you. I insist you come to see me right away!" 0===============0 | Conversation 5 \ 0====================================================================> Mercedes: "Tommy." Tommy: "Hey Mercedes." Mercedes: "Hey indeed Mr. Tough Guy. I real angry with you Tommy. Never make me hang out with Jezz Torrent again. He is pathetic. Half way through he starts crying about his doggie that died when he was 7 years old and that his mommy never loved him. And Tommy. He wear a wig and a bra in private. I not very happy with you!" 0===================================================0 | Conversation 6 (after the Interglobal Films Asset) \ 0====================================================================> Mercedes: "Ooh Tommy, its Mercedes. I just want to say, I have so much fun on that film set. Anything else you have like that, you let me know. I really mean that. I always wanted to be an actress. I think I learn a lot about the dramatic process. It so enlightening! Thank you. Thank you. I see you real soon.

A Call From Phil | \=========================================================================/ \=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=/ I think this could've been the phone call you get from Phil after you complete the Main Story Missions: Phil: "Tommy, the wound is healing well. Funny thing is, I have fought in 6 battle zones and always walked away without a scratch, and now this! One armed Phil. Still, I got me a healthy selection of one handed fire power so I'll never be unarmed Phil, you hear.

This an alternate version of the Colonel's phone call after completion of the Main Story Missions: Cortez: "Tommy, it is always a struggle here. Excuse the poor line, we have just had another failed coup. The people are the most demanding mistress of all. So far, we have had three revolutions and four coups since I return from Vice City. Luckily, I have been promoted each time. Maybe everyone is humiliating me. Tommy, you are proving very useful, my friend." Tommy: "Thanks, Cortez. What about my deal?" Cortez: "Tommy, I am working tirelessly on your behalf to ensue we get to the bottom of this trench of stinking lies and deceit, you have my word on that, but in the meantime, please accept the esteemed thanks of my people for your work on our behalf." /==++====++==\ /==++====++==\ /==++====++====++====++====++====<<##0##>>====++====++====++====++====++==\ | >VCT3.

While most Christian Counselors pride themselves on how many Scriptural passages they can recite and how many links they can make from the Bible to psychological disorders, the Christian-centric work of Grey Matters International, Inc.is grounded in one principle: truth. For us, the work is more about truth and transparency of Christ's message and working on the natural laws of accountability and decision making that evolves from that. If one honors God's natural laws of reaping and sowing around the decisions one makes, one is indeed living Scripture to its fullest. We prepare the brain to better maximize the spiritual realities of Christ's words. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

So this project was ... interesting. It started out at as an entirely metallic iHome. We were given this lamp/iPod player by my super cool pops and have been using it in our bedroom where it didn't exactly fit in.
The metallic was cool and would have been great for a modern decor/industrial look, but it didn't match the breezy, flowing feel of our bedroom. I decided to redo it yesterday and I'm half-pleased with the results. I liked where I was headed, but then in true auna-fashion, I took it took it too far. Do you ever do that? You *know* you should quit while you're ahead but just can't bring yourself to it? Yeah, that's me. So I kept painting when I should have stopped. But it's still an improvement and looks much better in our bedroom. I'll probably go back and alter it another day. Here's what I did...
click here for a tutorial). I wish I had used brown sharpie instead, that would have matched our room much better. Also, I wish I had written in larger letters- I was worried there wouldn't be enough room. Wrong. Haha! You could pretty much fit an entire children's book on the lampshade if you wrote in this font- which is an adorable idea for a nursery or child's room. You could write out their (your) favorite storybook. I wrote lines from my favorite French book. I made a lot of mistakes. Sharpie is rough. There are no second chances. After that, I decided I wanted to make the shade and base more cohesive, so I painted the bottom of the base in the same shade. Then I took it too far and decided to paint the top part white.
Ha. Big mistake.
Three coats later it looked a little better than it did here.

DOVER — The Children's Museum of New Hampshire plans to use a generous grant to fund two new outreach programs.
The Roger R. and Theresa S. Thompson Endowment Fund awarded the museum with $21,000, which will be put toward Story Explorers and Big World/Small World programs.
"Since its founding nearly 30 years ago, the Children's Museum has been dedicated to ensuring that all children and families have access to our nationally recognized programming and exhibits," Justine Roberts, executive director of the museum stated in a public statement. "The Thompson Endowment Fund has provided very generous support to us throughout our history, and we are grateful that they are underwriting Story Explorers and Big World/Small World this year. These programs provide hundreds of young children, families and teachers with dynamic arts and literacy experiences that build skills in reading, writing, creative thinking and more."
The Story Explorers program provides students and parents with the opportunity to attend three literary sessions at the museum, led by educators, to promote a greater interest in reading at home.
"We are happy to welcome these preschoolers and their families into the museum to spark their interest in reading," Xanthi Gray, humanities educator at the museum said in a public statement. "We hope that offering them stimulating experiences with literacy here at the museum will translate into increased time spent reading at home."
The Big World/Small World program is a project designed for elementary school students to explore their families' heritage. Students will research their family history and then visit the museum to create their individual cultural stories, which will later be mounted as a museum exhibit.
"This program addresses an increasingly pressing challenge in New Hampshire to support vulnerable residents, including new immigrants," Paula Rais, the museum's director of Community Engagement said in a public statement. "Participation in this program catalyzes a deeper understanding of the fundamental similarities within the human experience, and jump-starts conversations about culture, identity, and diversity that build community."

Bollywood hopes now no more Kasabs are being trained
Bollywood celebrities Anupam Kher and Anubhav Sinha have hailed the government for Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Amir Kasab's execution Wednesday, and hope that "no more Kasabs are being trained elsewhere".
Kasab, the sole terrorist caught alive in Mumbai 26/11 mayhem, was hanged in Yerawada Central Jail in Pune early Wednesday morning after his mercy plea was rejected by President Pranab Mukherjee earlier this month. Nine of Kasab's fellow terrorists, who were killed, had been secretly buried in the city in January 2010.
Celebrities took to Twitter to share their sentiments. Here's what they wrote:
Anupam Kher: Justice may not replace the feeling of loss but it gives strength and hope to continue life with renewed belief in system we live in.
Madhur Bhandarkar: Kasab's execution is a victory not only for the Mumbaikars who suffered at the hands of terror, but the entire nation.
Riteish Deshmukh: Kasab hanging - congratulations government of India for doing it so effectively. For once the government broke the news and not the news channels.
Anubhav Sinha: I only hope there are no more Kasabs being trained elsewhere in the world while we rejoice the execution of one. Not a big fan of capital punishment. But if at all, we must know that Kasab is just the last domino piece to fall. Topple the first one.
Vishal Dadlani: Almost four years since 26/11, we have learnt or fixed nothing. They could hire any number of new Kasabs. We'd still be sitting ducks, like last time.
Aftab Shivdasani: Finally Kasab hangs. Prayers for 26/11 victims and their families.
Celina Jaitly: Today our veer shaheed and the victims of 26/11's horrendous acts of terrorism will finally rest in peace. Kasab, you and your mates will burn in hell. Well done government of India. However, the source of the ideology of the fanatics who turn young men into terrorists is still alive.
Siddharth: The death penalty scares me no end. Having said that, Ajmal Kasab needed to die. He's going to realise that the whole heaven thing... was a lie.
Kunal Kohli: Kasab has been hanged! Finally. God forbid there's a next time we need to hang or execute such terrorists faster.
Ram Gopal Varma: Here's wishing that finally his (Kasab's) victims souls will rest in peace RIP and Kasab's soul will roast in hell ROH. Most Indians would have preferred to have seen Kasab being lynched and tortured to death instead of being just hung. If I were to be the hangman I would have shown the pictures of all his victims to Kasab before hanging him.

LOS ANGELES (AP) No one's rushing to anoint the Los Angeles Clippers, who at 22-6 own the NBA's best record. They're not exactly impressed with themselves, either - despite a franchise-record 14-game winning streak.
``It is still early in the season and we have a lot to prove to the rest of the league,'' Matt Barnes said after he helped the Clippers' reserves outscore their starters in a 112-100 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night.
No less an authority than Kobe Bryant is complimentary.
``They're playing extremely well,'' Bryant said after leading the Lakers to their fifth straight win, 100-94 over the New York Knicks in the first game of a Christmas doubleheader at Staples Center. ``They're coming at you in waves and waves.''
The Clippers have taken advantage of a soft stretch in their schedule to win a franchise-record 14 in a row, although they have earlier wins over some of the league's elite teams such as the Lakers, defending champion Miami, Memphis, and San Antonio twice.
``This is fool's gold,'' cautioned Clippers point guard Chris Paul, who led the starters with 14 points against the Nuggets. ``You don't play for the regular season. Obviously, you want to build something.''
While the Clippers continue to soar, the Lakers are starting to show signs of life in what has been a confounding season.
``We're .500,'' a smiling Dwight Howard said after the Lakers improved to 14-14. ``We did it on Christmas, too. I knew this day would come.''
Bryant scored 34 points in his NBA-record 15th Christmas Day game, and Metta World Peace added 20 points and seven rebounds while defending Carmelo Anthony, whose 34 points led the Knicks.
The Lakers moved to 9-9 under new coach Mike D'Antoni and upped their holiday record to 21-18, including 13-9 at home. They returned to .500 for the first time since they were 8-8 on Nov. 30.
``It's so early in the season to have turned a corner,'' Bryant said. ``We have everybody in the lineup and we're starting to see how we want to play.''
The Clippers have clearly figured things out.
Jamal Crawford led their reserves with 22 points and Barnes added 20 - one off his season high - as the bench outscored the starters 64-48 in moving one win ahead of second-best Oklahoma City (21-6), which lost to Miami earlier Tuesday.
``They've got the respect of the league and they've got the attention of the league,'' said former Clipper Andre Miller, who had 12 points for Denver. ``It's tough to come in here and get a win when the team is playing that well.''
Kosta Koufos and Jordan Hamilton scored 16 points each and Ty Lawson added 15 points for the Nuggets, who fell to 7-13 on the road, where 22 of their first 32 games are being played.
Crawford's 3-pointer to open the fourth pushed the lead to 20 and kept the Clippers' starters on the bench for the final 12 minutes.
Denver rallied in the third, using a 15-6 spurt to close to 73-63, capped by Andre Iguodala's free throw after Paul received a technical foul.
The Clippers answered with three consecutive 3-pointers, including two by Willie Green from the opposite corners, for an 84-67 lead. The Nuggets ran off seven in a row to get within 10 before the Clippers regrouped with a 9-2 run, capped by Paul's 3-pointer, that kept them ahead 93-76 heading into the fourth.
``They have a confidence right now that's pretty powerful,'' Nuggets coach George Karl said.
The Clippers stretched their lead to 67-48 at halftime with 42 points in the second, their highest-scoring quarter this season. The bench got things going with a 14-10 run before Paul replaced a wild Eric Bledsoe. His presence settled down the second unit until Griffin and DeAndre Jordan eventually came back in during a 28-10 run the rest of the period that produced the Clippers' first double-digit lead. Driving dunks by Barnes and Griffin, alley-oop dunks by Griffin and Jordan, and consecutive 3-pointers by Barnes and Paul highlighted the scoring binge.
``When we are at our best our starters have a great first quarter and our bench elevates that,'' Griffin said.
In the opening game at Staples, the Knicks were in control most of the way behind Anthony and J.R. Smith, who had 24 points. But they struggled offensively in the fourth, when Anthony was limited to seven points and Smith had five as the Lakers' defense clamped down. World Peace fouled out with 1:58 to play and the Lakers ahead by four.
Steve Nash said of World Peace: ``This is what he's been doing all year. He gets his hands on a lot of balls, pounds on the other team's best guy. You can't win without that type of effort.''
Smith's 3-pointer pulled New York to 96-94. After Pau Gasol made one of two free throws, Smith missed another 3 that would have tied the game at 97 with 32 seconds left.
``We missed a lot of easy shots, a lot of little chippers around the basket, shots that we normally make,'' Anthony said. ``There were some plays that we thought should have went our way down the stretch, but for the most part, we fought. I'll take this effort any night. If we continue to play with this effort, we'll win a lot of games.''
With Bryant double-teamed, Nash passed to Gasol, who dunked with 12 seconds to go, punctuating a win that sent Lakers fans, frustrated by the team's struggles and coaching change, home happy. The Lakers avenged a 116-107 loss in New York on Dec. 13.

It's a no-brainer that when employees are rude to customers, business suffers.
But a new study finds the bottom line is hit just as hard — sometimes to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars — when employees are rude to each other and customers see it.
According to researchers, onlookers' anger over witnessing such incivility causes them to stew longer over what they saw, which in turn, leads to harsher verdicts about the staff, the company as a whole, and any future dealings there.
In fact, even if the observed rudeness is in the customer's defence, as part of a reprimand for poor service, the same effect holds — suggesting, ultimately, that what people will tolerate even less than an incompetent worker is one with no sensitivity.
"We hear so often that customers only care, 'What's in it for me?'" says study co-author Christine Porath, assistant professor of management at Georgetown University. "But we found this (reaction) was primarily driven by the fact that, morally and ethically, we don't like seeing others mistreated."
Most surprising to investigators, whose study appears in the August issue of the Journal of Consumer Research, was an experiment in which patrons were left waiting for service while a female employee gossiped on the phone. This employee was later scolded in front of them by a fellow worker.
"We expected people to think, 'She had it coming,'" says Porath. "But no, they still felt really strongly that (the public rebuke) was wrong."
Two previous studies by organizations of different sizes — one a communications company, the other a hospital — have estimated the cost of employee incivility to be anywhere from $12 million a year to "hundreds of millions," says Porath. Lost business factors in, as does turnover, with 12 per cent of employees leaving a firm due to perceived mistreatment.
Incivility, in terms of this study, denotes belittling or demeaning comments, such as "you're an idiot."
"It shows a total lack of sensitivity and empathy," says John C. Williams, senior partner with J.C. Williams Group in Toronto. "You praise in public, scold in private."
But Williams, a retail consultant, believes an increase in training and greater awareness of workplace bullying — which he notes can now get a company sued — have reduced such incidents in recent years. The latest statistics from a health and productivity watchdog suggest he's right.
While in 2007, Shepell.fgi, a health information provider, reported that conflict in the Canadian workplace had shot up 22 per cent over the previous three years, spokeswoman Lisa McLachlan says the year-over-year increase in 2009 was less than one per cent.
Nevertheless, you don't have to look far to find supervisors who, without a second thought, will publicly admonish employees.
Mark Julien, associate professor of business at Brock University in St. Catharines, Ont., believes the problem is that managers misguidedly assume that a public display of zero-tolerance somehow endears them to the customer.
"It may be the manager's intention to show that, 'I'm really standing up for you,' but the long-term collateral damage is that it's going to alienate both the employee and the customer," says Julien.
"Awareness of harassment and of employees' rights now makes us more indignant when we witness those things firsthand."

February 4: The 2014 Season Is Here
• Maryland has an 84-3-1 (.960) lifetime record in season openers dating back to the 1924 season. The Terps have won their last 19 openers and 26 of the last 27, with the only loss coming to Duke in 1993, when they fell to Duke 9-5 on March 6.
• After losing their 1925 opener to Yale, 5-3, the Terps went on to win 40 consecutive season openers from 1926 through 1967. The streak was broken when Maryland tied Princeton, 6-6, in the 1968 opener. Following the deadlock, Maryland went on to win its next 14 openers, giving the Terps a 54-0-1 record over a 57-year span (Maryland did not field a team in 1944 and 1945 due to World War II.)
• After beating Mount St. Mary's to open the 2013 season the Terps have an 20-game winning streak in season openers. Five of those wins came against Villanova (1994-98) and the last nine over Denver, Mount St. Mary's (twice), Air Force, Hobart, Duke, Georgetown (four times), Bellarmine (twice), Presbyterian, Detroit Mercy and Hartford. Over the 20-year stretch, Maryland outscored its foes 290-105 (an average score of 14.5-5.3) in those games.
• The Terps have not allowed more than seven goals to any opponent in a season opener over the last 20 years. Maryland has not allowed an opponent to score 10 or more goals in a season opener since Syracuse beat the Terps, 16-13 on March 9, 1983.
• One axiom of lacrosse is that if you score 10 goals or more your chances of winning are pretty good. Well, a look at the results since 2002 shows that when Maryland scores 10 or more goals there's not just a pretty good chance the Terrapins will win; it's an almost certainty. Since 2002 Maryland has won 101 of the 110 games in which the Terps have scored 10 or more goals for a .918 winning percentage.
• Maryland scored 10, but fell at North Carolina, 11-10, on March 24, 2012 and again came out on the losing end, despite scoring 11 in a 13-11 loss at Colgate on May 5, 2012. The Terps scored 11 vs. Johns Hopkins on April 16, 2011, but the Blue Jays won the game in overtime, 12-11. On April 3 of last season the Terps lost to No. 1 Virginia by a final of 11-10, giving Maryland its only loss when scoring 10 or more goals in 2010. In 2009 the Terps lost to Georgetown, 13-10 on Feb. 21 and lost again when scoring 10 in the ACC Semifinals in a 16-10 defeat at North Carolina. Prior to that, Maryland had not lost when scoring 10 or more goals since dropping an 11-10 decision to Virginia in the semifinals of the ACC Tournament in Durham, N.C. The Terrapins got to 10 goals in the 100th game against Johns Hopkins, but the Blue Jays took the game 14-10. Virginia is the only team to beat the Terps twice when allowing 10 or more goals. The Wahoos did it first in 2002 with another 11-10 decision.
• The Terps have been extremely impressive (winning 91.8 percent of its games since 2002) when it scores 10 or more goals, they have been nearly as impressive when holding opponents to less than 10 goals during that span.
• Since 2002 Maryland is 119-26 in games, for a .821 winning percentage, when it has held opponents under 10 goals. The Terps have played 194 total games since 2002. Maryland has held opponents to nine goals or less 74.7 percent of the time.
• Maryland's 18-6 win over the Colgate on May 4, 2013 extended the Terps' streak of double-digit win seasons to 11, which is the longest active streak in NCAA Division I men's lacrosse. (Special thanks to Patrick Stevens of the D1scource.com).
• There are only four programs with a current streak of at least five-straight 10-win seasons:
Maryland (11): 2013 (10-4), 2012 (12-6), 2011 (13-5), 2010 (12-4), 2009 (10-7), 2008 (10-6), 2007 (10-6), 2006 (12-5), 2005 (11-6), 2004 (13-3), 2003 (12-4)
Notre Dame (8): 2013 (11-4), 2012 (13-3), 2011 (11-3), 2010 (10-7), 2009 (15-1), 2008 (14-3), 2007 (11-4), 2006 (10-5)
Duke (7): 2013 (16-5), 2012 (15-5) 2011 (14-6), 2010 (16-4), 2009 (15-4), 2008 (18-2), 2007 ( 17-3)
North Carolina (5): 2013 (13-4), 2012 (11-6), 2011 (10-6), 2010 (13-3), 2009 (12-6)
• Cornell's string of seven-straight 10+ win seasons came to an end in 2012 with a 9-4 final mark. Virginia's streak of eight-consecutive seasons with 10+ wins ended in 2013 with a 7-8 record, while Siena saw its run of six 10-win seasons end with an 8-9 mark this season.
• Maryland's 15-6 victory over Penn on April 14, 2009 was the program's 700th victory in 84 seasons of varsity men's lacrosse. The Terps join Johns Hopkins, Syracuse, Navy, Army and Cornell as the only programs with 700 or more Division I wins.
• Two things that make Maryland's accomplishment all the more impressive is that the Terps reached the 700-win plateau in just their 84th season. Only Syracuse reached win No. 700 in as few seasons, but it took the Orange 53 more games than Maryland. In fact, Maryland needed only 940 games to reach 700 wins and only Johns Hopkins needed fewer games (932) to hit the historic number, but the Blue Jays did so in their 105th season.
• The Terps boast an all-time record of 740-253-4 (.744), dating back to the first varsity team in 1924 (a team was not fielded in 1944 and 1945 due to World War II). Maryland has finished every one of its previous 85 seasons with a .500 or better record, including last season when the Terps went 10-6. The program reached the 700-win milestone with a 15-6 victory over Penn on April 14, 2009 at Ludwig Field.
• During the decade of the 2000s, Maryland went 111-49 for a .694 win percentage, making it the winningest decade in Terrapin lacrosse history. In the decade of the 1990s, Maryland posted a 95-47 record. The .669 winning percentage matched Maryland's win percentage of the 1980s when the Terps went 83-41 and also compiled a .669 win percentage. So far, Maryland is 25-9 in the 2010's for a .735 winning percentage.
• Many school's refer to their sports programs as families, but the Maryland men's lacrosse program is truly a family affair. Since 2001, the Terps have had 13 sets of brothers, including three on this season's roster, don the red and black together for at least one season.

• The 2014 season is the first since 2000 that the Terps have not had a brother combination on the roster.
• Led by senior defender Michael Ehrhardt, four Maryland men's lacrosse student-athletes were chosen in the 2014 Major League Lacrosse collegiate draft.
• Ehrhardt was chosen seventh overall by the Charlotte Hounds, becoming the eighth Maryland player to be taken in the first round, joining Lee Zink (2004, 5th), Chris Passavia (2004, 6th), Joe Walters (2006, 1st), Bill McGlone (2006, 5th), Ray Megill (2007, 9th), Joe Cinosky (2008, 9th) and Jesse Bernhardt (2013, 4th).
• Senior midfielder Mike Chanenchuk was the next Terrapin off the board, also joining the Hounds as the 11th overall selection.
• The third Terp to be selected was senior goalie Niko Amato, becoming the first Terp to join the Florida Launch, with the 29th overall selection.
• The final Terp to be drafted was senior short-stick defensive midfielder Brian Cooper, who earned the distinction of being 2014's MLL equivalent of "Mr. Irrelevant" as the final selection of the draft, going with the 64th overall selection to the Chesapeake Bayhawks.
• Five Maryland men's lacrosse alumni were named to the 30-man roster for the U.S. National Team that will compete at the 2014 FIL World Championships from July 10-19 in Denver.
• Jesse Bernhardt (2013), Dan Burns (2011), Jeff Reynolds (2009), Drew Snider (2012) and Lee Zink (2004) made the team, which was selected from an original pool of 98 players through a seven-month selection process.
• Maryland's five selections are tied for the most of any college program with Johns Hopkins, which also has five alums among the 30-man roster.
• Four players have been named team captains for the 2014 season. The quartet, which was selected by a combination of team vote and coaches' input, consists of seniors Tyler Adelsberger, Niko Amato, Mike Chanenchukand Michael Ehrhardt.
• The University of Maryland's men's lacrosse team will compete in the Big Ten Conference beginning with the 2015 season, following an announcement from the conference office on June 3, 2013 that the Big Ten has secured six men's teams when Johns Hopkins was accepted as a sport affiliate member for men's lacrosse only beginning with the 2014-15 academic year to give the Big Ten six men's programs, joining Maryland, Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State and Rutgers.
• The six programs that will comprise Big Ten men's lacrosse boast 56 national championships, with schools that have competed for more than a century. Johns Hopkins has been an independent since 1883 and leads all schools with 44 national championships. Maryland has claimed 11 national titles, while Rutgers has also won a national championship. The Scarlet Knights launched men's lacrosse in 1887, followed by programs starting in 1913 for Penn State, 1924 for Maryland and 1953 for Ohio State. Michigan instituted a men's lacrosse program in 2012. Maryland, Ohio State and Penn State each qualified for the NCAA Men's Lacrosse Championship in 2013, with the Buckeyes advancing to the quarterfinals.

Deutsche Telekom Pitches NSA-Free German Internet
Oct 26, 2013 5:00 AM PT
Germany might go off the global Internet in response to the United States National Security Agency's recently uncovered surveillance activities.
Instead, German telecommunications giant Deutsche Telekom, whose motto is "Life Is for Sharing," has proposed a national routing scheme that would see all data packets -- including emails -- transmitted only within the country's borders, WirtschaftsWoche recently reported.
In particular, data packets would no longer go through discredited nodes in the U.S. and the UK.
'Email Made in Germany'
The proposal was reportedly presented at Germany's Federal Ministry of Economics and Business on Oct. 1. Implementation would require support from foreign carriers such as Vodafone and Telefonica, which are apparently studying the proposal.
In light of technical and legal hurdles to the idea, DT has reportedly suggested that Germany pass a law making the national routing scheme mandatory.
DT's proposal is an outgrowth of an encrypted email service, "Email Made in Germany," launched in August by the company's T-Online division with two other major German email providers: GMX and Web.de.
Iran proposed a similar move back in 2011, and Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff is pushing legislation to force Internet companies such as Google and Facebook to store local data within Brazil's borders.
Rousseff also wants to construct submarine cables that do not route through the U.S.; build Internet exchange points in Brazil; and create an encrypted email service through the country's postal service.
DT can set up a local Internet in Germany, Pete Ashdown, founder and CEO of Xmission, told TechNewsWorld.
It would need its own root DNS servers and its own designs for address allocation as well as a protocol to hand off traffic to the Internet at large, Ashdown said.
However, such a venture would also require government funding and the network would require maintenance and -- possibly -- monitoring "in the form of deep packet inspection just to ensure network efficiency," Jim McGregor, principal analyst at Tirias Research, pointed out.
We're All One World, Dammit!
Yet segmenting all communications is impossible, Ashdown opined: "Look at how China and other autocratic regimes have tried to control the Internet."
Encryption protocols will get tighter as a result of the NSA's spying, but "there are enough people who want to preserve the good and open aspects of the Internet that segmentation and firewall efforts will eventually fail," he continued.
"If you create restrictions, the very people you try to restrict will likely be the ones that find a way around the wall," McGregor told TechNewsWorld.
To Thine Own Self Be True
The idea of an internal German Internet might have been raised for political gain, McGregor speculated.
In fact, Germany's foreign intelligence agency -- Bundesnachrichtendienst, which goes by the acronym BND -- wants to expand its role internationally through a program named "Technikaufwuchsprogramm" to become a mini-NSA, Spiegel Online reports.
At the same time, DT may also have more mundane concerns: There has been speculation that the company is seeking to curb traffic being routed through servers abroad to increase its revenue.
Meanwhile, it's not likely that DT could carry out its ambitious plan because it owns T-Mobile, which puts it under U.S. financial scrutiny. Further, other carriers might not agree with its plan.
Anger Is the Best Medicine
Then, too, there's the possibility that the outrage being voiced by EU countries is just an act.
Asked McGregor, "don't you think the British, French, German, and Russian intelligence agencies have similar efforts?"

Early Voting On Track To Set Midterm Election Record
More than 9.4 million Americans have already cast ballots.
Oct. 27, 2010 -- With less than a week to go until Election Day, more than 9.4 million Americans have already cast their ballots in what experts say could be a banner midterm election season for early voting.
More than 1.5 million people have voted early in California, 1.2 million in Florida, 237,000 in Iowa and 266,000 in Nevada. Those numbers are likely to be lowball estimates, since some counties have been slow to report early voting statistics.
Local newspaper headlines from around the country tell the story. It's shaping up to be a record-breaking year in places like Polk County, Iowa; Kanawha County, West Virginia; Tazewell County, Illinois and Travis County, Texas. In St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana, where early voting ended on Tuesday, the line to cast a ballot stretched out the door.
"It looks like we're on track to beat 2006," said George Mason University political scientist Michael McDonald, who has been tracking the early vote almost around the clock. "It's not clear if we're going to get up to 2008 levels yet."
Republicans and Democrats can point to key states and counties where they are out in front, and neither party has passed up the opportunity to spin the returns in their favor.
On Wednesday the Democratic National Committee released a memo dismissing the notion that Democrats were the ones facing an enthusiasm gap this year, saying that in 11 key states Democrats were doing better than their GOP counterparts in early voting.
"The results to date are not only not consistent with the existence of a Republican enthusiasm gap," the DNC memo said, "they show that in key races Democrats are winning."
Democrats pointed to their early voting advantage in Nevada, Iowa, California Wisconsin, Washington state, Illinois and West Virginia.
"If Republicans were more enthusiastic in 2010, they would see significantly higher early vote across all levels of vote history than Democrats," said the DNC memo. "Most importantly, sporadic Republicans would consistently out-turnout sporadic Democrats in early voting. This hasn't materialized in early vote."
But in other important states like Colorado, Florida and Pennsylvania, the GOP is in the lead -- a fact that the Republican National Committee highlighted in a memo on Tuesday that argued the Democratic enthusiasm gap was alive and well.
Early Votiing: Both Parties Claim Lead
"Democrat claims of a stronger ground game are contradicted by the data and appear to be a brazen attempt to motivate a depressed base," the RNC memo said. "Combined with our traditional Election Day turnout advantage, this kind of absentee and early voting performance will drive Republican victories all over the country."
In Nevada, for example, the RNC said that Democrats enjoy a 5 percent party registration advantage and led Republicans in 2008 in absentee and early voters. But with roughly 266,000 votes cast so far, the GOP appears to be running neck-and-neck with Democrats.
Nevada is shaping up to be something of a bellwether state for early voting. During the 2006 midterm election nearly 52 percent of all those who cast ballots voted early, and in 2008 the early-vote share rose to nearly 67 percent. As Professor McDonald put it, "Nevada is a state where Election Day is really the last day of the early voting period."
In Iowa Democrats held a 17-percentage-point lead in the early vote heading into Election Day in 2008. According to the GOP memo, "That lead has been cut to 7.04 percent so far this year (45.20 to 38.16 percent). As a percentage of total votes cast, Republicans have increased by 9 percent while Democrats have shrunk."
But Democratic Party officials tend to reject outright comparisons to 2008. Instead, they contend that a more accurate way to measure how each party will fare is to look at those who have voted in previous midterm elections, in presidential-year elections only and first time voters in 2008. In Iowa and several other states, Democratic early voters in these three groups are largely holding their own, and in some cases, exceeding Republicans.
Although McDonald agreed that there are positive signs for Democrats in the early voting numbers, he said that accurate comparisons to previous years were difficult to make. His prediction: the fair comparison this year is somewhere in between 2008 and 2006.
"We are in uncharted waters when it comes to early voters," McDonald said. "We really don't know where we're going to end up."

Using MediaWiki 1.16 with the Vector skin (fresh installation, no upgrades or imports), how do I get that new fancy Ajax-enabled editing toolbar?
I've digged through all available settings in php, but whatever I do, I get the old monobook-style toolbar:
Apparently, this is not a caching issue, as I was able to use this method to add more buttons to this toolbar.
Currently I have the following customizations:
$wgDefaultSkin = 'vector';
$wgUseAjax = true;
$wgEnableMWSuggest = true; # Enable ajax suggestions for search box
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; # Disable anonymous edits
I've also enabled short URLs as described here.
Everything else on my wiki looks definitely like Vector. It's just the toolbar.
The official manual seems to be making a good laugh out of me, as this new fancy toolbar said to be "the default" for the Vector skin.

With Christmas behind us, the studios don't really have much to offer other than a pair of international men of mystery, one from a very understated George Clooney film that too few of you saw, and the other from one of our very favoritist TV shows.
PICK OF THE WEEK: "The American"

"Archer: Season 1"
The first season of this super-spy spoof was so hilariously profane and absurd, we can't wait for the next season to start in January. Now available on DVD, watch the promo
"And Soon the Darkness"
A remarkably good looking cast--Karl Urban, Odette Yustman and Amber Heard--star in this remake of the 1970 English thriller of the same name, about two young women on vacation.

"Battlestar Galactica: Razor"
This two-hour TV movie about the encounter between Battlestars Galactica and Pegasus, which deals with the controversial ascension to XO of Kendra Shaw, was made to tide over fans who were losing their cool during the 12-month hiatus between seasons 3 and 4. Now available on Blu-ray, watch the trailer
Remember this thriller about marital infidelity gone terribly wrong starring Jennifer Aniston and Clive Owen? Yeah, nobody else does either. But hey, it's got a cameo from RZA. Now available on Blu-ray, watch the trailer

Idris Elba of "the Wire" stars as a former black-ops solider holed up in a Brooklyn hotel room who is slowly coming unglued as he tracks the ascent of his brother, an ambitious and ruthless brother, a U.S. senator with his eye on the White House. Now available on DVD, watch the trailer
A wiry geek hoping to make his high school team reaches out to his estranged brother, Mike (John Cena), a former star wrestler, but the two must keep it a secret because their mom (Patricia Clarkson) still holds Mike responsible for his father's death after 10 years.

Hello guys,
I am interested in developing a C code to solve for a general banded system. While browsing this forum, I came across this thread:
I noticed they provide a C example in where the interfacing has been taken care of. However, in such a code, the matrix being solved is a general dense, and I am interested in a general banded.
Any hints?
Thanks in advanced!

Beartrap Summer Festival 2012 Kicks Off With A Bang
If anyone had any doubts that this year's Beartrap Summer Festival wouldn't be one of the greatest years ever, those doubts were erased as soon as the first band took to the stage. Red June opened Beartrap Summer Festival 2012 and as soon as the first note rang out, festival-goers knew that they were in for what could possibly be the greatest Beartrap Festival of all time.
The 2nd band of the day, Honey Don't, certainly did- bring it that is. 10 Mile Tide made waves from their first song to their last, displaying their own rock/folk/bluegrass hybrid and The 23 String Band made us all wish that they had 23 more because they were so unbelievably good. Halden Wofford And The Hi Beams will surely not disappoint and, of course, headliner The Marshall Tucker Band is sure to bring the proverbial house(or meadow) down.
Of course, we would be remiss if we didn't mention the vendors and the food of Beartrap. If you're looking for a wide-array of arts, crafts, hats, hoola hoops, and delicious food, not to mention amazing music and an incredible atmosphere, then Beartrap Summer Festival 2012 is the place to be this weekend.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – After a bye week off from MLS play last weekend, the Crew returns to the field this Saturday (April 24) when it hosts defending MLS Cup-champion Real Salt Lake, in a showdown between the last two MLS Cup champs at Crew Stadium and rematch of the clubs' 2009 playoff series.
Saturday's match, which kicks off at 7:30 p.m. ET, will be televised live regionally on ONN-TV, with Dwight Burgess and Bill McDermott calling all the action. The game can also be heard in English on News/Talk 610 WTVN with Neil Sika and John Bluem behind the microphone and on-line at TheCrew.com and MLSsoccer.com, as well as in Spanish on La Mega 103.1-FM, featuring Carlos Cordova and Benny Pietrangelo on the call. It will mark the first time the teams have met since RSL upset the Supporters' Shield-winning Crew in the Eastern Conference Semifinals on its way to the MLS Cup title last fall.
Real Salt Lake, which currently sits in sixth place in the Western Conference with a 1-2-1 record (4 pts.), enters the match after falling to the LA Galaxy, 2-1, last Saturday (April 17) at the Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif. Midfielder Kyler Beckerman notched the lone tally for RSL in the match, but it wasn't enough to overcome a two-goal effort from red-hot LA forward Edson Buddle. The Royals have been paced to date by midfielder Javier Morales, who leads the team with three goals, and forward Robbie Findley, whose two assists lead the club in that category.
The Crew, which sits in fourth place in the Eastern Conference with a 1-0-1 record (4 pts.), enters Saturday's match after enjoying a bye from MLS play last weekend. The Crew instead hosted a pair of college squads for two scrimmage periods at Crew Stadium last Saturday (April 17). The Black & Gold earned a 5-0 win over Duquesne in the first 45-minute session, with Jason Garey scoring two goals and Duncan Oughton, Emmanuel Ekpo and Kevin Burns each tallying one strike apiece. A second 45-minute session followed against Louisville, with the Crew falling 1-0.
In its last MLS match at FC Dallas on April 10, the Crew traveled to Pizza Hut Park and came away with a 2-2. FCD's Jeff Cunningham opened the scoring in the match with a penalty kick in the 29th minute. Adam Moffat's first goal of the year drew things level in the 52nd minute. Steven Lenhart received a fine ball from Frankie Hejduk down the right side and sent a great pass to Moffat, who one-timed his shot into the left side of the net to tie the game. Guillermo Barros Schelotto put the Crew ahead in the 82nd minute with his second goal of 2010.
After the Crew was awarded a penalty kick try, Schelotto stepped to the spot, but was stopped on the try by Dallas goalkeeper Kevin Hartman. However, Schelotto quickly pounced on the rebound and headed it into the back of the net. FC Dallas would find the match equalizer on the match's last kick after David Ferreira was denied near post by Crew goalkeeper William Hesmer. The ball popped back into the midfield and appeared to strike Eric Avila's hand, but no call was made. Avila then found the ball at his feet as he struck a low shot that caromed off the far post and into the net to even the match in the final moments.

Dean Holden has called upon to Walsall to "come out fighting" as they strive to end their sorry 15-match winless sequence.
The Saddlers fell to their heaviest defeat of the season as they lost 5-1 at Coventry on Saturday, with their last success coming way back in late September.
The midlands side have slipped from sixth place in League One to 19th during that time, and veteran defender Holden is demanding they stop the rot now.
"It was a bad day all round," he told the club's official website, referring to the Ricoh Arena reverse. "We know that we've not performed as a group and we have to look at ourselves and work hard to pick ourselves up.
"The only thing we can do is come out fighting. We have to get our boots on, come out for the next game with a smile on our faces and put things right.
"The belief is still there. We showed what a good side we can be early on at Coventry but we lost our shape as the first half went on and gave ourselves a mountain to climb for the second half.
"We have a big job on our hands but we are determined to get back on track and start climbing up the table.
"There are two big home games ahead of us now and a chance to start putting things right and getting some points on the board. We will be ready for these games and determined to turn things around as a team."

Analysis: With gun control, Obama takes political chance
- President vows to use the weight of his office to make proposals reality
- Obama calls on Americans to pressure lawmakers and find out where they stand
- Supporters admit hard push on assault-weapons ban has risks for Obama
WASHINGTON — The beauty of a second term presidency, at least for the man in the Oval Office, is that political calculations become less important as he considers policies he wants to pursue.
President Obama's sweeping gun-safety agenda laid out Wednesday reflects just that reality as he called on Americans to get behind a dramatic plan that he believes can help stem gun violence.
In a little over a month since the school shooting in Newtown, Conn., Obama and the White House mapped out a plan that gun-control proponents immediately embraced as bold and ambitious while critics blasted it as overreaching.
At the heart of his agenda are calls to close background-check loopholes, make schools safer, increase access to mental health services and, most controversially, ban the sale of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines —all measures that will require congressional action.
Obama vowed to use "whatever weight this office holds" to make his gun-safety proposals a reality, but put the onus on Congress, who he said will have to act if there is to be meaningful action.
To that end, he called on Americans to question lawmakers on where they stand on some of the most divisive issues, including a ban on assault weapons and establish universal background checks.
"The only way we can change is if the American people demand it,"' Obama said.
Obama also sought to put voter pressure on the powerful National Rifle Association and, particularly, its supporters in Congress:
"Ask them what's more important: Doing whatever it takes to get an A grade from the gun lobby that funds their campaigns? Or giving parents some piece of mind when they drop their child off to first grade?"
A ban on assault weapons ban was first passed into the law in 1994, but it expired in 2004. Obama has long backed a move to reinstate a ban, but there's been little political will to get it back on the books.
Even after last month's tragedy in Connecticut, where the gunman used a military-style Bushmaster rifle loaded with 30 rounds and more high-capacity clips at the ready, Americans remain opposed to such a ban. A USA TODAY/Gallup Poll last month showed that 51% oppose outlawing assault weapons, while 44% support it.
Perhaps of more concern to the president at the moment are comments by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid suggesting that the ban has little chance of getting through Congress.
"Let's be realistic. In the Senate, we're going to do what we think can get through the House," Reid, the top Senate Democrat, told a Nevada PBS station over the weekend. "And I'm not going to be going through a bunch of these gyrations just to say we've done something because if we're really legislators, the purpose of it is to pass legislation."
The White House insists that the call to re-institute the ban is not a pie-in-the-sky effort, and suggests that Obama will lean into the effort.
But even some supporters of reinstating an assault-weapons ban say a hard push by Obama is not without risks, and the president may be best served by putting his political capital into measures such as universal background checks, cracking down on gun trafficking and improving data collection and sharing among federal agencies.
"Those are not firearms that anyone needs or should have, but we don't think it will have much impact on gun crime, while other things the president proposes will," said Matt Bennett, a senior vice president at the centrist Democratic group Third Way. "I worry that it's going to dominate the debate when it shouldn't. It's the tail wagging the dog."
Obama, however, clearly believes that Newtown created a moment for more than piecemeal reform.
As he wrapped up his remarks announcing his agenda, he recalled a conversation he had with the family of one of the young victims in Connecticut, Grace McDonnell, 6, who loved the color pink and visiting the beach.
"Most of all, I think about how when it comes to protecting the most vulnerable among us, we must act now, for Grace, for the 25 other innocent children and devoted educators who had so much left to give," Obama said. "Let's do the right thing. Let's do the right thing for them and for this country that we love so much."
