Bruce Lee: Quest Of The Dragon XBox
Check Availability
Bruce Lee: Quest of the Dragon drops players in the capable shoes of late martial arts master, Bruce Lee. Using moves from his self-developed fighting style of Jeet Kune Do, Lee must progress through 12 international levels of beat-'em-up action, from San Francisco to Hong Kong, to rescue his father and retrieve the powerful Golden Relic from a crime organization known as Black Lotus. Players will fight numerous henchmen with an assortment of punches and kicks. Defeated enemies yield coins used to purchase one of over 150 fighting moves. During the course of battle, a Dragon Meter will gradually increase, which imbues Lee with invulnerability and the fabled "flaming fists" once filled. Occasionally, players will be presented with basic objectives, such as beating a certain number of enemies within a specific time. At the conclusion of a level, coins can be traded for extra moves or increased health and strength. When faced with multiple attackers, players can use the right analog stick to throw punches in any direction, regardless of where Lee is currently facing. Should that not prove helpful, nunchaku can be used. Throughout the journey, Lee fights bare-chested or wears one of a number of different costumes, including a yellow jump suit. Cut-scenes between levels are used to advance the storyline. Players will encounter characters including Victoria, the sister of Black Lotus boss Natascha, and loyal followers such as Oshi, Tsuki, and the Wolf. Fans will be pleased that over 50 spoken lines of Bruce Lee's philosophy have been included and fighting moves were motion captured from his last surviving pupil. Finishing the game rewards players with a One-on-One fighting mode. Fight as Bruce Lee in over 30 levels on a quest to rescue his kidnapped father. As Lee you're called out of retirement to investigate your father's disappearance and the mysterious "Black Lotus" criminal organization. When you uncover international weapons smuggling and dangerous "super-steroid" research you'll be forced to confront the beautiful "Dragon Lady" Chi-Wan head of the "Black Lotus" who's father was inadvertently killed on Lee's last mission. This event has weighed heavy on Lee's conscience. Now he only fights when he must but when he must he fights to win! Study your opponents and learn ...

16-Bit Perfection -
I grew up in a Nintendo house playing an NES. Even after the SNES came out, I played my NES constantly. In fact I can only remember really playing Mega Man X on my SNES, and a little bit of Super Mario World. No, I was an 8-bit kid through and through. This was mostly because I had piles of NES cartridges, and SNES cartridges were slow to trickle into our collection. My mom could grab an NES game at the pawn shop for ten bucks and keep me enthralled for weeks, as opposed to a fifty dollar SNES game at a real store. But, as things progressed into the era of early 3D I began to see the advantages of 16-bit over my beloved 8-bit. I never really appreciated the graphics on my SNES until it was too late. Anybody that played NES games as a kid probably had the same system that me and my brother employed for more indecipherable sprites that we saw. A lot of my friends referred to the bullets in Contra as tomatoes, and the bullets in Ikari Warriors as marshmallows. My favorite were the small purple creatures from Kung Fu Heroes, which me and my brother referred to as peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Of course they look nothing like sandwiches, and really just resembled eggplants with mouths.
But with 16-bit games things became much clearer. Suddenly there was just enough clarity to recognize what every item and enemy was supposed to be, and it did kill a little bit of the magic for me. It was especially disheartening for me because I was the kid that made up his own names for every enemy in Zelda, and decided what kind of creatures they were because our copy didn't come with a manual. As the guessing game disappeared, we grew fond of the graphical prowess of the 16-bit era. Games looked damn good, and it was nice to actually know what everything was for a change. The mystery had been replaced with solid pixel art and great animation. I remember being shocked when I picked up the SNES Spawn game and he wasn't just a small block of pixels, but instead a full sized sprite of my favorite comic book character that swayed with animation. Then the 3D revolution happened. The Nintendo 64 was on the horizon and the Playstation was gaining traction among gamers for its 3D graphics. Those few short years where 16-bit reigned supreme were drawing to a close, and like most other kids I was overjoyed at the prospect of seeing my favorite video games in glorious, detailed 3D. What I got was a mottled mess of blurry textures and hard to see models. Let's be honest here, it wasn't pretty. At the time it was the best we had, and we all oohed and aahed but early 3D games can be painful to go back replay. This was a trend that even continued through early PS2 games. It was expensive to make 3D games, and if a studio didn't have the cash it showed. Even well-funded first party games suffered the transition to 3D. When was the last time you played the original version of Super Mario 64?
Fast forward to now. Games compete fiercely with each other over who can have the brownest, most dust covered levels. Graphical fidelity has reached a shocking high, but major studios want their games to look "real", even though the real world looks drab and boring. Aside from some of the more majestic parts of the real world, it's a pretty dust-filled, gray place. Now, this isn't to put out studios that put out amazing games because there are quite a few, but the big Triple-A titles that get all the hype seem to follow this pattern. I don't think it's a coincidence that 16-bit style games are on the rise again even though we have the power to do so much more.16-bit games have clarity and simplicity while still being able to look impressive. Today 16-bit graphics can be programmed by an incredibly small team, and it gives them a retro charm that gamers look at fondly. Again, I think this is because it was the perfect balance between looking like they were meant to and still being attractive. Graphics from early video games were representative because the technology simply didn't exist to make them look like what they were really meant to be. Looking back at any Atari game we can see this, and I'm sure the guessing games were rampant back then as well. 16-bit games, in my opinion, are the pinnacle of gaming graphics. While I have to say that I do play my fair share of 3D games, nothing grabs we and makes me feel at home quite like some well-crafted pixel art. Maybe I'm just getting old.

despite the fact that the DLC items were already on the disc (2k did this so that everyone could play together, whether they bought the Test pack or not, ), are you enjoying it? Do you think it was worth the 400 MS points?
I believe so,
This is probably the only "special" multiplayer content that will be released (beside map packs), So I'm willing to shell out the few extra dollars
Remember VOTE!

EthicsAt its annual General Assembly in October 2009, the UIAA approved the Mountain Ethics Declaration, a central guiding document on the ethics, principles and values of our sport.
It outlines ethics of ethics of sportsmanship, respect for cultures and care for the environment, and includes guidelines on the use of supplementary oxygen and performance-enhancing drugs.
The process leading to the approval of the document began in 2001, when the UIAA Mountaineering Commission completed the Mountain Code. In September 2002 experts, representatives from mountaineering federations and some of the world's leading mountaineers and rock climbers from around the world met at the "Future of Mountain Sports Conference" in Innsbruck. This conference was organised in cooperation between the local government, the Oesterreichischer Alpenverein (Austrian federation), the Deutscher Alpenverein (German federation) and the UIAA. The participants developed the Mountain Code further and the conference finally adopted the document as the Tyrol Declaration on Best Practice in Mountain Sports.
The Tyrol Declaration has been translated into many languages and promoted by member federations and the UIAA Mountaineering Commission. The declaration was however not adopted by the UIAA General Assembly.
The new Mountain Ethics Declaration is based on the Mountain Code and the Tyrol Declaration, but also includes aspects of the UIAA Summit charter 2002. |

It is not an easy thing to continue the grass root non armed popular struggle week after week, year after year... But, nothing keep the back more straight and the spirits higher than the tsumud (persistence) in the struggle against the suppression and the persecution of the Israeli state forces. They regarding the popular struggle even as more potent than us, but are often vacillating between a ferocious steps of repression, and retreat from them due to wider political considerations. It is still vivid with me the memory of one of the intense confrontations. It was in the first year of the struggle in Bil'in. The state forces tried to impose a strict curfew and prevent about 450 Israelis fro joining the villagers in a demo against the building of the separation fence. After a siege around the village and tens of armed cars in it with tear gas shooting and arrests, they fought us viciously from down till afternoon... when they gave up and went away... and we marched undisturbed to the separation fence and along it - the first time after more than half a year of preventing us from doing it.

In a bid to fight boredom during those flat days i have descided to something constructive with my spare time and build a vid blog dedicated to guitar technique and basic lessons. The site is in its infant stages but i have uploaded 3 basic vids.
Basically each week i will try to post up a vid showcasing how to play a particular song (the first one is paint it black) and maybe a vid on some form of technique. This is all acoustic guitar.
Im no expert but figure its a good way to kill time and hopefully provide some usefull info to people and hopefully i will get better at showcasing this the more i do.
Let me know what you thinks so far and please offer any suggestions
Anyway Rock On and Catch some decent waves - i know i have been recently

Comments about Shock Doctor Ultra Wrap Lace Ankle Support:
i have two screws in my ankle. this wrap is the most aggressive in terms of protection. for how much support is lends, it's still relatively flexible. i feel much more comfortable grappling with this on. it's definitely a pain to get on and off. it could use a lacing release or something. you basically have to de-lace the thing to get it on and off. but i'd rather it be a pain to get on and off than be less of a support.

This package creates a call-tree – a data structure saying which function calls which function.
Use 'M-x simple-call-tree-analyze'
to run it on a buffer. This uses 'font-lock-function-name'
to identify function names. Therefore, you might have to wait for a bit until the stealth font lock has actually fontified all of the buffer, not only the visible part. Alternatively you might want to call 'jit-lock-fontify-now'
explicitly (e.g. by inserting `(when jit-lock-mode (jit-lock-fontify-now))' right after `(interactive)' in 'simple-call-tree-alist'
below), especially if you use jit-lock-mode and your Jit Lock Stealth Time is "never" (what is the default, I think).
For CPerl, some keywords like -f are also hilighted using font-lock-function-name. In order to exclude these, use 'M-x simple-call-tree-analyze-perl'
For any kind of literate programs consider calling 'simple-call-tree-analyze'
on the "tangled" code.
The output in ielm (see InferiorEmacsLispMode):
ELISP> simple-call-tree-alist (("DoShowVisitors") ("AddUserToRecentVisitors" "T" "GetParam" "UpdateRecentVisitors") ("UpdateRecentVisitors" "T" "ReadRecentVisitors" "WriteRecentVisitors") ("WriteRecentVisitors" "T" "WriteStringToFile") ("ReadRecentVisitors" "T" "ReadFile") ("DoShowVersion" "T" "GetHeader" "GetCommonFooter") ...
To see which functions are called at all:
ELISP> (setq simple-call-tree-used (mapcar 'car (simple-call-tree-invert simple-call-tree-alist))) ("DoOtherRequest" "DoBrowseRequest" "InitRequest" "DoCacheBrowse" "InitLinkPatterns" ...
To see which functions are not called:
ELISP> (set-difference (mapcar 'car simple-call-tree-alist) simple-call-tree-used)
Anything is a candidate selection framework.
Start with 'M-x anything-simple-call-tree'
, narrow the list by typing some patterns(multiple patterns are space-delimited string), select with up/down/pgup/pgdown/C-p/C-n/C-v/M-v, choose with enter,
With C-z function definitions (by rotation) are displayed without quitting anything session.
Hm, could be that the last function is not analyzed correctly… – AlexSchroeder
Somebody make it write out dotty files please! ☺ (see http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/graphviz/)
For a simple graphviz solution (with dot), see my suggestion below in the Visualization part – PeterTury?
I can't get this to work properly for me. It will only recognize functions if they have already been displayed in a window. I suppose that emacs only updates the text-properties when it needs to (i.e. when the text is displayed in a window). Is there any way to force emacs to evaluate the text properties of a buffer? – Aleblanc
Aleblanc, please check my suggestion with 'jit-lock-fontify-now'
above – PeterTury?
See 'font-lock-support-mode'
. Instant fontification could be slow for large buffers, though. That's why it is not usually used as a source of syntax information. - anon
As we need to call 'jit-lock-fontify-now'
, why not adding it in simple-call-tree-analyse, just before the 'let'
? – DanielDehennin
[new] Shouldn't you call 'font-lock-fontify-buffer'
if you want the buffer to be fontified right now? – LennartBorgman
To show a pretty-printed representation of functions and their callers, you could use something like:
(defun simple-call-tree-list-functions-and-callers () "List functions and callers in `simple-call-tree-alist'." (interactive) (let ((list (simple-call-tree-invert simple-call-tree-alist))) (switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "*simple-call-tree*")) (erase-buffer) (dolist (entry list) (let ((callers (mapconcat #'identity (cdr entry) ", "))) (insert (car entry) " is called by " (if (string= callers "") "no functions." callers) ".\n")))))
Alternatively, if you wanted to list which callers and the functions they call, you could use something like:
(defun simple-call-tree-list-callers-and-functions () "List callers and functions in `simple-call-tree-alist'." (interactive) (let ((list simple-call-tree-alist)) (switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "*simple-call-tree*")) (erase-buffer) (dolist (entry list) (let ((functions (mapconcat #'identity (cdr entry) ", "))) (insert (car entry) " calls " (if (string= functions "") "no functions" functions) ".\n")))))
A simple (and rather manual) way (using http://www.graphviz.org/) can be:
(see below)Evaluate this expression (C-M-x) to create function 'sct-dot'
(defun sct-dot () "Generate dot file for graphviz from `simple-call-tree-alist'. After calling `simple-call-tree-analyze', use `sct-dot' in an empty buffer via `(insert (sct-dot))'. Then save the file as \"my-file.dot\" and run \"dot -Tjpg /path/to/my-file.dot -o result.jpg\" from command line." (concat "digraph G {\n" ;; default beginning of a dot file (mapconcat 'identity ;; end each line with a ";" (mapcar (lambda (defun-list) "Called for each elemet (list) of `simple-call-tree-alist', create all the 'caller -> callee;' strings." (let ((caller (car defun-list)) (callees (cdr defun-list))) (if (null callees) (concat "\"" caller "\"") (mapconcat (lambda (callee) "Called with each callee, create 'caller -> callee' pairs." (concat "\"" caller "\"" " -> " "\"" callee "\"")) callees ";\n")))) simple-call-tree-alist) ";\n") ";\n}"))
The following library is based on simple-call-tree.el and provides a major mode for displaying and navigating the call tree. You can invert the tree, change the depth, narrow to a particular branch, perform query replacements on functions (useful for refactoring), and it also works with follow mode if you have that installed (http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/sje30/emacs/fm.el).

Quotes from authors born on Aug 16th
All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.
T. E. Lawrence
I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams.

I cannot solve the problem of life by losing myself in the problem of art.
Tina Modotti
I saw a guy being really abusive to his girlfriend. She was asking people to help, but no one would. When he grabbed her, I tried to separate them, but he turned on me. I punched him and knocked him down. It wasn't a scandal; I was just doing what anybody should.

Winter Returns to Sugar Bowl Resort
One of the many things I love about Tahoe is just how fast one season ends as another begins. This past weekend we all enjoyed summer-like temps on Friday and Saturday, a blustery autumn day on Sunday, and then full-on winter come Monday. Mountain biking one day, powder skiing the next.

Miracle March delivers over 100 inches of snow!
March is a month known for its generous storms, and is sometimes referred to as Miracle March. This year it definitely earned that title. Big storms hit Lake Tahoe last week, leaving between 50-109 inches (that's NINE FEET!) of snow at the Ski Lake Tahoe resorts!
Mar 19th 2012
Are you ready? Temperatures are dropping and moisture will be in the air. Sounds like we should be seeing snow above 7,000' starting Wednesday night and some weather continuing throughout the weekend!

UPDATE: (10:45 a.m. Jan. 30) - The Harris County Sheriff's Office responded to this story today with a statement saying that undercover deputies will be exempt from the photo session. Their statement is below.
"Even though you alluded to the deputies' organization's concerns in an e-mail last Thursday -- in the midst of national breaking news concerning the Lone Star College shooting and the Sheriff's Office -- we were unaware of the specific concerns voiced to you until today," said Harris County Sheriff's Office Director of Public Affairs Alan Bernstein. "We have not seen the organization's news release. Also, as far as we can tell, the organization did not voice or send or write its concerns to Sheriff Garcia despite the numbers ways it can do so.
Most important, undercover officers have always been exempt from the photo requirement. However if a deputy works an approved "extra job" in uniform, they are not truly undercover."
ORIGINAL STORY: Members of the Harris County Deputies Organization (HCDO) are upset with a mandatory request from Sheriff Adrian Garcia, calling it a public relations grab that ignores officer safety.
Garcia sent a memo out to department staffers last week notifying them of a mandatory policy, requiring them to have a photo taken for the department's yearbook, commemorating the department's 175th anniversary.
HCDO President Robert Goerlitz said the policy could put deputies at risk, especially those that serve in undercover positions.
"We don't know who is getting copies of these yearbooks," Goerlitz said. "If drug cartels get one, they can scan pictures and put them into facial recognition databases. This is a public relations thing for the sheriff and it could cost lives."
Harris County Sheriff's Office officials responded to a request to comment on the issue by sending the Tribune a copy of Garcia's memo.
"As you are all aware, the Sheriff's Office is working feverishly towards completing our 175th anniversary yearbook," the memo states.
It goes on to say that a special yearbook committee has only been able to secure about half of the department employees pictures.
"In an effort to assist the Yearbook Committee's efforts and help facilitate the completion of this project, I am requiring all personnel who have not yet had their yearbook portraits taken to schedule an appointment to have their portrait photo taken during the next scheduled photo session this coming February," the memo states. "The intent of my instruction is to reach 100% employee participation so that all personnel are properly represented and duly recognized for their continuing commitment to their communities and for their loyal service to the Sheriff's Office."
"The problem is that the administration is requiring 100 percent participation," said Goerlitz. "A lot of these guys are currently or may work undercover in the future. It's a safety issue."
Goerlitz said that in the past, deputies have been allowed to mask their identities in photos; something he said that administrators say is not an option this time.
"The response we have gotten from them is that if it is too dangerous to have a picture taken then it is too dangerous for deputies to have jobs outside the department," he said.
"Our job function is inherently dangerous without creating additional risks," he added. "This most certainly creates undue risk that the safety of not only the deputy will be compromised, but that of their family as well."
Harris County deputies are searching for a man they believe walked into a Tomball area office and shot a worker in the face on Valentine's morning.
The Harris County District Attorney's Office has accepted charges of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon and Aggravated Assault with Serious Bodily Injury against Gary Ishmael Bolin, 61.
Detectives said that Bolin walked into a home that had been converted into office space for a nearby business at the corner of Dogwood and Hufsmith Kuykendahl Road at about 10:30 that morning and shot a 54-year-old employee in the face, after an argument quickly escalated.
Deputies claim the two men had an ongoing dispute, when the suspect walked into the offices.
They said that Bolin did not communicate with anyone else in the building, but went directly to the victim's office and minutes later pulled out a handgun.
Detectives claim that Bolin then fled from the scene in a dark red or possibly maroon over white dually pickup truck. They won't confirm what relationship the pair had, but said that Bolin does have something to do with the property. They also claimed that the two are currently involved in a civil lawsuit against each other.
The suspect was described as a white male, wearing a white cowboy hat, light colored western shirt and blue jeans.
As of press time he was still not in custody. If arrested, Bolin will be held on $60,000 bond.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office is asking that anyone with information on Bolin's whereabouts contact Crime Stoppers at 713-222-8477, or the Harris County homicide unit at 713-967-5810.
Every member of the Tomball Police department stood waiting outside their building Feb. 27, their badges glistening in the early morning sun.
They weren't preparing to respond to an emergency, rather they had gathered in preparation for the one time a year they could all be together – the annual inspection.
Inspecting them were the departments command staff of Chief Robert Hauck, Cpt. Rick Grassi, Cpt. Anthony Solomon and Cpt. Rickey Doerre, as well as other area law enforcement officials, business owners and community leaders.
"We do this for multiple reasons," Hauck said. First is the opportunity to show off the men and women of our department, the opportunity to allow us to get together with our public safety partners and members of the community and also the feeling of pride that all of us get being together as a whole, for this one time each year."
Hauck said that while the 47 sworn officers and 13 civilian employees were all together, the city received the help of the Harris County Pct. 4 and Montgomery County Pct. 5 Constable Offices, as well as the Harris County Sheriff's Office in patrolling the city.
"We are very grateful for our partners help, it's what allows us to do this inspection each year," he said.
Meanwhile several other officials, including other law enforcement members, talked to the officers, some jokingly trying to hire them away to work for their agencies.
"We have applications with us," Harris County Sheriff Adrian Garcia said to laughter. "Seriously though, this community is very lucky that it has such fine men and women of the Tomball Police Department and to have Chief Hauck as well."
Montgomery County Sheriff Tommy Gage said he was grateful his agency has received help from the Tomball Police Department in the past.
"When you all come across that creek to help us, we are so appreciative," he said.
Montgomery County Pct. 5 Chief Deputy David Wood agreed.
"I also live in Tomball, so I have a good view to see what a good job you all do," he said.
Tomball Superintendent John Neubauer said the department's continued partnership with the school district has been a key for school safety.
"It has been a great partnership," he said. "The Tomball Police Department is great and I just want to thank you for all that you do."
Greater Tomball Chamber of Commerce President Bruce Hillegeist said that the key to the department's success is the character of the men and women within the organization.
"You all look handsome in those uniforms," Hillegeist said. "But under those uniforms are what's really important, you all have huge hearts and we are blessed to have you all here."
Investigators with the Harris County Sheriff's Office are seeking information about any additional incidents involving a former technology camp manager, who has been charged with sexual assault and indecency with a child.
Anthony Tang, 38, was recently booked into the Harris County Jail, on charges that he assaulted a then-14-year-old boy about two years ago. The incident allegedly took place at the Camp Katy Technology camp, near the 400 block of West Grand Parkway South. The camp has relocated since then.
Activities at the camp included overnight stays by under-age participants.
Anyone with information about any sexual abuse incidents related to this case should call Sheriff's Office investigators at 713-830-3250 or Crime Stoppers of Houston at 713-222-TIPS.
HOUSTON (AP) — Prosecutors on Monday dropped charges against a 22-year-old man who authorities initially believed was involved in a shooting that wounded him and two others at a Houston-area community college.
Carlton Berry was arrested soon after the Jan. 22 shootings at Lone Star College and charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. But authorities later accused another man, Trey Foster, 22, of being the shooter.
Foster has been charged with two counts of aggravated assault and faces a charge of resisting arrest in an earlier case. He was arrested Friday in the Dallas suburb of Plano.
Harris County Sheriff Adrian Garcia defended his agency's initial arrest of Berry, saying two of the victims initially indicated that Barry was the shooter. He also said Berry at first refused to talk to investigators, and it was only after he was charged that he pointed authorities to Foster.
"I support my investigators. I continue to support them," Garcia said. "I remain proud of their thoroughness and their relentless pursuit of the truth. They did what they were supposed to do."
Investigators say the shooting happened after 25-year-old Jody Neal bumped into Foster while Foster was walking with Berry. Foster and Neal argued but went their separate ways.
But when the two ran into each other 30 minutes later, they argued again and Foster fired at Neal, wounding him in the abdomen and leg. Berry also was shot and wounded, and a maintenance worker for the college, Bobby Cliburn, 55, was hit in the leg.
Authorities say at least 10 shots were fired, causing panic and a leading to a campus lockdown.
Berry's attorney, Robert A. Jones, said his client never should have been charged or jailed because the evidence showed he was a victim. Berry was shot in the left hip, which Jones said was an indication that Berry might have been facing away or running away from the shooter.
"He said that continually, whenever (authorities) talked to him, that he didn't do anything. But that wasn't enough. Then they started their investigation based upon his statement and they realized he didn't do anything," Jones said.
Prosecutor Alison Baimbridge said authorities dropped the charges in the interest of justice. She said that as with any investigation, the more witness interviews and evidence collecting that are done, authorities are "better able to determine who was where, what actually occurred."
Charges were formally dropped during a court hearing Monday, and Berry was later released from jail.
Foster made his initial court appearance Monday. He is being held on bonds totaling $100,000, and if he posts them, a judge ordered him subject to GPS monitoring and a curfew.
Quanell X, a community activist and a spokesman for Foster's family, said Foster told him Berry had nothing to do with the shooting. Berry and Foster apparently knew each other from school.
"It was inappropriate and wrong for Trey to have a pistol on campus," he said.
Quanell X said Foster legally bought the .40-caliber handgun authorities say was used in the shooting at a sporting goods store in Houston. Foster took a class for a concealed handgun license but had not completed the process to get a license, he said.
Garcia said investigators confirmed Foster bought the gun at the store, but noted there are questions about whether he should have been allowed to do so because of his criminal history.
Jess Myers, a spokesman for the sporting goods store, St. Paul, Minn.-based Gander Mountain, said the company couldn't provide firearms purchase records or comment on an ongoing investigation.
"Gander Mountain operates in strict compliance with all local, state and federal laws regarding firearms ownership and fully cooperates with law enforcement," Myers said in an email.
Quanell X said Foster bought the gun to defend himself after he was shot in the face a couple of years ago and had recently been receiving threats. He said Foster panicked during the shooting.
"He was very remorseful and sorry that innocent people got shot," he said.

Harris County Sheriff's Office investigators are seeking the public's help in identifying and locating a person of interest. The man is wanted for questioning in the Nov. 12, 2012 shooting death of
Coty Beavers, 28, at his northwest Harris County apartment.
Working from information provided by an eyewitness, an artist has sketched a likeness of the subject – a man with dark hair and thick dark eyebrows, wearing eyeglasses.
The man was seen asking about Beavers at the Legacy Park Apartments, 10801 Legacy Park Drive, a few days before Beavers was shot multiple times at the complex.
Beavers was the twin brother of Cory Beavers, who had been the boyfriend of Gelareh Bagherzadeh, 30. She was shot to death while driving to her townhouse in the Galleria area of Houston, reportedly after visiting Cory Beavers. Bagherzadeh was an outspoken critic of the government of Iran, where she was born.
Her killing is being investigated by the Houston Police Department. Investi-gators with HPD and HCSO have disclosed no evidence linking the killings of Coty Beavers and Bagherzadeh.
Anyone with information about the subject should call the Sheriff's Office Homicide Division at 713-967-5810 or Crime Stoppers of Houston at 713-222-TIPS.
A Tomball woman was found dead in her car on I-45 near Cypress Creek July 26 and Harris County deputies are still searching for answers.
Dora Lee Hughes, 28, of Tomball, was found deceased in her vehicle under the overpass at Cypress Creek on the North Freeway (I-45). Deputies responded to a call about a car on the roadway just before 11:30 a.m. that morning.
The cause of death has not been released and a Harris County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman said that no suspects are under arrest and that deputies are still pursuing leads in the case. She said that detectives with the homicide unit are currently handling the case.
The department is asking that anyone with information related to Hughes whereabouts prior to her death, or any information regarding the case to contact the Harris County Sheriff's Office homicide unit at 713-967-5810 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office is alerting the public about a scam involving suspects that contact victims by telephone or email claiming to be law enforcement officers collecting debts.
The scammer will try to intimidate the victim by threatening to put the victim in jail if the money is not paid.
The impersonator will ask the victim to purchase pre-paid gift cards and provide him/her with the card information when he/she calls back. In most cases, the victim has no knowledge of any debt.
In some cases that have been brought to the attention of the Harris County Sheriff's Office, the scammer falsely claims to be Sheriff Adrian Garcia. The phone number that appears on the victim's caller ID is even that of the Harris County Sheriff's Office. However, it is important to know that the Harris County Sheriff's Office does not solicit or collect money for unpaid tickets, fees or any other debts over the phone or via email.
If you receive such a phone call, never give any personal information to the caller. Make the scammer answer your questions. Always get a call back phone number and never send money to anyone you don't know.
If you do indeed have a debt that needs to be paid, make the necessary arrangements with the entity to which you owe money.
If you feel you have been a victim of such a scam, please contact your local law enforcement agency and the Better Business Bureau.
A man has been sentenced to 40 years in prison for the 1990 shooting deaths of two Florida men in northwest Harris County.
Donald Miles was found guilty of murder and sentenced to state prison for the murder of Robert Holley and William Migues, in a Harris County court last Thursday.
Detectives and prosecutors argued that on the evening of Sept. 12, 1990, Holley, 43, and Migues, 25, were robbed and murdered in the 4300 block of Spring Cypress Road.
"The two victims were lured to a storage facility and that's where (Miles) shot and killed them," said Harris County Sheriff's Office spokesperson Christina Garza.
They were then taken and buried in a shallow grave in the 800 block of Century Plaza Drive. Their bodies weren't discovered until Feb. 27, 1991 by an individual searching through discarded auto parts in the vacant field.
"Miles then went back to the storage unit and set it on fire," Garza said.
The case went unsolved after the initial investigation.
In 2011, the HCSO's Cold Case Unit reopened the investigation and identified Donald Wayne Miles as the prime suspect in the case. They traveled to Louisiana to meet with Miles, who then confessed to detectives that he murdered the two men, while also telling police where he dumped the murder weapon.
"He told detectives where the gun was and miraculously they found it in a pond more than 20 years later.
He was charged with capital murder and sentenced to 40 years in prison.
So far the HCSO Cold Case Unit's conviction rate is 100%, since being resurrected in 2010.

"My team successfully demonstrated that while hormones do have a direct effect on the fish's physical structure (like gonads, genitalia and fins), the fish's behavior answers more to its position in the social hierarchy," he said.
So what can we Homo sapiens learn from these fish?
Researchers' efforts are showing us that two seemingly distant vertebrates actually share quite a lot of characteristics. As Grober firmly asserted, "Us IS them."
In both people and these fish, behavior answers to social context; it's only partly determined by physical sex and size. Sexual behavior in humans and gobies is malleable: It is able to change based on an individual's placement in the social hierarchy.
Grober argues: We should not think of fish as being like robots or automatons, because they make complex decisions regarding reproduction just as humans and other social animals.

On Sunday our church went to help the Cross Community Mission Foundation, a group that aims to help serve the homeless folk in the D.C area.
While we were setting up tables underneath the trees, one of the Sunday school kids saw a very large bird swoop down in pursuit of a squirrel.
They spent a good half hour following that bird and trying to take a picture of it. Any help identifying this would be much appreciated :D

My younger brother and I are close. He came out of the closet last year, although it wasn't much of a surprise because everyone knew he was gay since forever. Everyone is happy he's out because it kind of takes the elephant out of the room, and our immediate and extended family are all really supportive. But for the last six to nine months or so, he's been really depressed about not ever having had a boyfriend. He's 21 and he's always talking about how he wants to find a boy to be with in a relationship and not just for sex, but he says it's impossible for him to meet said boy.
Is it normal for my man to be so attracted to boobs that even though mine are beautiful and perfect, my boyfriend still wants to look at every other woman with a set of big boobs that he can? Aren't mine enough?
Boyfriend Ogles Other Breasts
You sound like a new reader, BOOB, so before we get to the advice, I wanna welcome you to the Savage Love family. With that out of the way …
Nope, yours aren't enough.
I'm a 28-year-old guy who was broken up with via text by a girl I had been dating for two months. She is dealing with the loss of a family member and some other personal issues, and she sent me this message while out of state for a week or so. Two months is a short time, I realize, and we never discussed the nature of our arrangement. But we spent a few nights a week together and agreed that we had something special. We had a chemistry that I haven't experienced in my last few relationships. How much respect do you maintain/lose based on something like this?
Could you tell my boy to calm the heck down? Can't seem to get him to get the difference between bestiality, necrophilia, and screwin' a bearskin rug. Emphasizing my usual sexual interests — which involve rope bondage, floggin', and an e-stim unit — hasn't worked. Logic isn't helpin' out at all. Maybe you can help?
I'm a straight male from Southern California and I really want to be a straight male escort. The problem is the industry is shrouded with deceptive "agencies" that take advantage of the situation. Also, it's not like there's a Male Escort 101 course that I can take to learn how to avoid these traps. I don't know if you can help, but I really want to get into this industry, hopefully through a reputable agency.
I'm a 17-year-old girl and, in most aspects, I'm confident with myself, my identity, and my body. Earlier this year, I met a girl. She had some serious drama at home and needed to get out of her house, so I let her stay at mine. Things went a LOT further than I was ready for. I had just had my first kiss the month before and I didn't feel like our relationship was ready for sex, but I went along with it because she never gave me a chance to slow things down or say no.
I work in an office tower in downtown Seattle. From time to time, I go to a bathroom on a mostly deserted floor, go into a stall, and rub out a quick one. Usually, no one comes in.
I am a 26-year-old straight guy. My straightness and guyness are recent revelations, and it feels amazing to be able to confidently state this. Here is my trouble: I've had gender issues for the past five years. My now ex-girlfriend of three years said she couldn't be with me anymore due to these issues. Our breakup was a result of my apathy in the bedroom, which was tied to my gender issues, and her fears of me transitioning into a woman. I can see now that my insecurities about myself caused me to be a selfish partner in many ways, but mainly in the bedroom.
I am a straight 29-year-old guy and I've been into ball busting — having my balls kicked and stomped — since I was 14. The fucked-up thing is, I only enjoy getting my balls busted by other guys. I've been hit in the balls by girls, and it doesn't do anything for me. I thought I might be bisexual, since I want guys to kick me in the balls, but I don't get turned on by the idea of sucking cock or getting fucked by a guy. Only ball busting with a guy turns me on.
Is it possible for a hookup to turn into a relationship?
Hoping One Person Enters
A hookup is a relationship, HOPE. It may be a short-term relationship, but it's a relationship regardless.
I'm gay and a junior in high school, and I've had a boyfriend for a year. (He's one year older than me, Dan, so relax!) We are out to our parents and everyone is supportive. We are not bullied or suicidal or using drugs. But we are frustrated! We had sex education in our schools, but they didn't cover gay sex. (Big surprise!) I tried to talk to my mom about gay sex, and all she said was "please use condoms." We tried and we used condoms, but I think we must be doing something wrong because we can't do it.
My fiancé and I have been together for six years. We're both 27. About a year ago, he admitted to me that he is bi—which I was surprised about. I told him that I was bi-curious. We have had talks about meeting with other couples. I am very insecure. I have been with very few men and no women (beyond kissing). Today, he told me that a few weeks ago he signed us up on a personals website and posted a picture of me naked from the waist down on the site. I was shocked and upset. I have NEVER posted nude pics of myself anywhere! I felt this was a violation of my privacy.
I have an awesome relationship with an awesome guy. He loves me and takes care of me. I'm GGG and he's vanilla. I only draw the line at poop, animals, and children. But he's never asked me for anything other than vanilla sex. Which is why I don't know what to do. I went downstairs late the other night, and he was sitting on the couch masturbating while stroking the cat, which was sitting on his chest. The cat was sitting ON him, Dan, WHILE he was yanking himself. I don't know if he saw me. I went right back upstairs and went to bed. In the morning, he acted like nothing happened.
I am the father of a recently out 18-year-old gay boy. Here's the problem: My son is in a relationship with a 31-year-old guy. I'm not okay with that. Yes, my son is a legal adult at 18 and can make his own decisions, but he's also still in high school. His mother argues that in order to be supportive, we can't object to this relationship. I don't think this is a gay versus straight objection. If I had an 18-year-old heterosexual daughter who was in a relationship with a 31-year-old man, I would have exactly the same concerns and objections.
I was recently advised to begin reading your column by my therapist. I am a 21-year-old male and a senior at an Ivy League school. Despite my academic success, I've battled a lot of stuff in the past few years: anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and porn addiction. It's quite a load of shit to try to wade through, but I honestly feel I'm getting better.
Thank you for your advocacy of monogamishy. (Monogamishness?) When I fell in love with my gloriously kinky and GGG wife several years ago, we were honest about our sexual desires—vast and wide-ranging—and we negotiated an arrangement that works for us. We encourage each other's outside crushes, and we both just want to be present while one of us is banging that outside crush. Your column gave us the tools we needed to talk with other potentially kinky folks. Thanks!
I'm a gay man in my late 20s who has been trying to deal with an attraction to young boys since I hit puberty. I know that what I feel is wrong and wish to Christ that I could have a normally wired brain. I have never abused a child; I do not look at child pornography. But I need to speak to a therapist because I can't get through this on my own. Bottom line is I'm afraid. Seriously afraid. I don't know what my legal rights are and I don't know how to go about getting more information without incriminating myself.
I had a threesome with my husband and another woman because I am GGG and that's always been a fantasy of his. I laid out my ground rules, and they were violated. (I said I was uncomfortable with his P in her V, and I ended up watching them fuck.) I didn't stop it at the time because I didn't want to ruin it for him. It's been some time, and my heart is still broken. I was completely down with every other aspect of the threesome, but I feel like a line was crossed. Am I wrong to feel hurt?
I am a straight 24-year-old female who has known my fiancé since freshman year of college. He has a fetish where he likes to watch women use the bathroom. I knew this, having seen some of his porn early on, and I accepted it. We all have kinks. But while peeing in front of someone isn't that big of a deal, shitting in front of someone is hard.
I headed north last week to do Savage Love Live — a rapid-fire, slightly tipsy Q&A session — at the University of Alaska Anchorage. It was my third visit to UAA and it was a blast. All of the questions in this week's column were submitted to me by UAA students and staffers.
Should I go ahead and divorce my fantastic wife of 23 years now because gay marriage is going to destroy it eventually anyway? — Tony From Wasilla
My husband is a very kinky submissive man. When we were dating, I found out that he had been talking to multiple people online and that he had met up with a professional dom a couple of times. I felt betrayed that he had done this all behind my back, even though I had told him that I would be down with him seeing a dom. (I even offered to buy him a session for his birthday!)
Have boyfriend. Several months. Love sex. First time we sixty-nine, I notice he has a little turtlehead sticking out. You get me? Second time, he has bits of toilet paper stuck in that area. CAN I ADDRESS THIS? And how do I do it without giving him a permanently flaccid penis? I love this man to pieces and know this is a humiliating topic. Please help!
Mired In The Mud
Got you. Wish didn't. But did.
My 13-year-old son came out to us this morning. He plans to tell his brothers in the next few days. We love and accept our son, and this news isn't surprising (but when will the stereotypical neatness kick in?), but we do have some concerns. He has, apparently, already made the news public at school. Any pointers you can give? We want to make sure he knows that we love him and don't care about his sexuality, while at the same time preparing him to deal with those people who do. Also, any advice you can give for when he starts dating would be appreciated.
I am writing to thank you. I remember reading your definition of "santorum" — "the frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex" — when it first appeared. I remember thinking it was a cute way to make fun of a dickhead politician. I never thought it would go this far. But after Iowa, Rick Santorum is in the spotlight again. And so is that frothy mixture. And that's fucking awesome.

Hofstra University Presents the 37th Annual Summer Writers, Program, July 5-15, 2011
Hofstra University, Hempstead, NY - Hofstra University's two-week Summer Writers Program, a cooperative endeavor of the Creative Writing Program, the Department of English and Continuing Education, offers nine classes that may be taken on a credit (for both undergraduate and graduate students) or noncredit basis The program begins on Tuesday, July 5 and runs on weekdays from 9:45 a.m. to 2 p.m. until Friday, July 15. Credit students can earn three credits in two weeks.The Summer Writers Program operates on the principle that true writing talent may be developed, nurtured and encouraged by writer-in-residence mentors. Through instruction, discussion, criticism and free exchange among the workshop participants, writers begin to find their voice and their style. The workshops provide group and individual sessions for each writer. Students choose one of nine writing genres—Poetry Writing, Short Fiction Writing, Children's Fiction Writing, Writing Varieties of Nonfiction, Writing for Stage, Screen and TV, Writing Graphic Novels, Writing Mystery Fiction, or Writing About Sports—and spend two intensive weeks studying with a writer-in-residence and honing their writing skills. In addition to the workshops, there are informal presentations by agents, editors, publishers and authors. Both mentors and students will read from published work and works-in-progress. These presentations and the luncheon offer additional opportunities to meet informally with participants, master writers and guest speakers.
This year's master writers include Reed Farrel Coleman, Keith Dallas, Brian Heinz, Patricia Horvath, Janice Levy, Connie Roberts, Andrew Salomon, and Paul Zimmerman. The program director is Richard Pioreck, a member of the Hofstra Creative Writing faculty.
The Summer Writers Program includes a luncheon on Thursday, July 14 at noon at the Hofstra University Club. The Luncheon is open to the public and features bestselling author Megan Abbott, who will discuss "Luminous Visions: The Mysteries of Inspiration."
There are also two special sections for high school students: Creative Writing and Creative Writing Intensive.
Non-credit and high school student tuition is $600 for the two-week, 9-session workshop. Students who wish to take the program for undergraduate or graduate credit should contact Professor Richard Pioreck in the English Department at firstname.lastname@example.com or 516-463-0258.
For registration and all other information about the 37th Annual Summer Writers Program, call (516) 463-7200 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com. Information and an online brochure are available at ce.hofstra.edu/summerwriters.

Useless in snow. Happy (but disappointed) that I missed the introduction of AWD.
Overall review:
Plenty enough power for USA. Would purchase again but am keeping it as long as it's worry free.
