- Always note that the B flag is the hardest flag to capture on every map. If you play on Ground War Domination it usually ends up that the team that gets the B flag first is the one who wins because of how many people there are.
- It's very difficult to play against a party. If a party joins I usually leave not because I'm a coward, but because I know that I don't stand a chance with randoms, so then I hook up with my teammates.
- Support killstreaks are suitable for Domination. The UAV, CUAV, and Ballistic Vest combo all help your team while crippling the others.
I'll come up with more later.

Re: Got any Domination tips for me?chartang May 6, 2012 9:12 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
- If your team has 2 flags never EVER go for the third and stay out of their spawn otherwise they'll start spawning at one of your flags.
- Be a team player, as stated UAV, CUAV and BV's are cool but remember AUAV and the Recon Drone.
- Speaking about Recon, that perk is perfect for this game type, see a flag flashing then throw a Flash grenade at it to find out exactly where the enemy is.
- Use flanking tactics (this is common sense but I'm constantly able to walk up behind 3 or 4 people and take them out, you'll be suprised at how unaware people are is this game mode)
- In regard to holding flags, the worst one I can think of is A on mission when the enemy has C and B, good luck if you find yourself in that situation.
if I can think of more I'll add them.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?Nneakz May 6, 2012 9:10 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
Yes, B Flag in all maps is crucial to gain, hold it for as long as you can
Once youve got two flags under your control, dont try and triple cap, there is no point. Just wait at the two points you own and they will come to you, this is a good way to rack up those kills.
As for perks, i use Assasin alot, this helps out massivly against those pesky Predi's.
Advanced UAV's are a great helper on domi, as you can see those little campers holding some of the flags. Pick them off and you will soon see them not camping those points.
If you roll out Support, go for a recon drone, this is a huge help for the team, it also gives a ton of XP. (Remmeber if you use hardline pro, assists count as kills , if x2)
Allways play to the objective, this is the most important rule. If your playing dom for easy kills, go play TDM or KC, Domi is WAY more fun if the teams battle for the flags. (as its meant to be played.)
Add me if you want to play some games i am allways on from 22:00 uk time till the early hours. GT = Username on the forum.
Have fun
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?chartang May 6, 2012 9:16 AM (in response to Nneakz)
Do Hardline Pro and Recon Drone tag kills work now then? I remember testing it in the early days of this game and it didn't work!
maybe I was being a dumbass and didn't have pro or something lol.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?Nneakz May 6, 2012 9:33 AM (in response to chartang)
As far as i can remmeber, they do. But remmeber your just running support, so it might just be worthwhile going for a Support Airdrop or the EMP.
I will re-test tonight, unless anyone else can confirm?
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?D4nth3m4n May 6, 2012 8:19 PM (in response to Nneakz)
I thought Assasin didnt stop you showing up for preds, but blindeye did.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?CRA1G1690 May 6, 2012 9:18 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
Sometimes yesterday I actually went the long way up behind them going for the third flag myself when we had two and just being greedy so will stop that, AUAV is something I didn't really consider but will give it a try today.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?chartang May 6, 2012 9:30 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
Yeah and thanks to flag capping adding to your point streak, it's even faster to get your AUAV
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?chartang May 6, 2012 9:32 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
If you do try AUAV use it with Recon Drone for Blackbird goodness, of course only your team will benefit but you'll get a crap ton of XP. just make sure you call in the AUAV first obvs.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?Nneakz May 6, 2012 9:34 AM (in response to chartang)
Totally agreed here, this is a great tactic Killstreek for Dom players.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?fisheadz May 6, 2012 9:59 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
i only play ground war dom so limited in advice for regular but, here goes
dom on mw3 is very very very badly thought out
village forget a, cap c an b, one person can control c an b by themself, the a spawn is too far away
baakara, forget a, cap c an b, one person can control c an b by them self, the a spawn is too far away
resistance, imo a an b are better as you can have cover from air support in the shop
interchange, i prefer to hold a an b
arkaden, forget c, cap a an b, one person can control a an b by themself
fallen, imo a an c are best to cap an hold
outpost, imo c an b are best/easiest to defend
the rest jus go for a fight an see what happens
i run slieght of hand, overkill, marksman or stalker pending map
msr, lsw or mg36, betty an flash
flash the enemys side of the flag, walk the lmg in on full chat, cap flag leave a betty an pull back to a vantage point so i can defend with my rifle
dom in mw3 is rubbish, the result most of the time depends on where you first spawn which is a very poor show imo
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?CRA1G1690 May 6, 2012 10:17 AM (in response to fisheadz)
This is what I really want to hear, what flags are best to cap, anyone disagree with any this guys mentioned?
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?chartang May 6, 2012 10:50 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
okay lets see, in no particular order
Seatown- A and C are about the same, this map all comes down to which team can cap B and hold it.
Dome- flags constantly change control on this map, just cap whatever flag you are near (this is the one map I would advise triple capping as it doesn't really matter about the spawns)
Arkaden- definitly go for A and B
Bakaara- either A or C and B, The path to B from A has slightly more cover, maybe ... thats about it though.
Resistance- ahhhh B flag on this map is a snipers paradise. you get more cover from the A side so A and B again.
Downturn- ... god I hate this map erm... A is inside soooo A and B I guess, if the enemy has B prepare to die... Alot. well in my experience anyway .
Bootleg- Getting B is, again, a git on this map but once you have it, it is pretty easy to hold. I personally have an equally easy time with both A and C so yeah.
Carbon- If you only have A or C prepare to be spawn killed several times just get B is all the advice I can give.
Hardhat- Another small map B is easier to hold from A side so A and B.
Lockdown- Love this Map, C is probably better than A thanks to all the buildings but again good luck on B it's wide open from every side.
Village- easily C and B as stated previously they can both be easily defended from the same place.
Fallen- The one map where having B is not good because if that is your only flag you'll get spawn trapped in that general area, A and C are the way forward here.
Outpost- C and B. B is much easier to defend from C side.
Interchange- meh A and C are about the same, getting B is fun though.
Underground- I would say I prefer having C and B but I'm not sure if many will agree with me on this one.
Mission- The worst A flag in the game, if it's your only flag, consider leaving.
I can't comment on any of the DLC maps as I have rarely played them.
but yeah I mean generally if you have A and B and the enemy is capping A go for C because chances are the enemy team are spawning at A.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?blb128 May 6, 2012 10:02 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
The A flag on mission and bootleg suck. Try to avoid capping these even if you start here. It is easy to get spawn trapped at these flags. Also playing domination is best played with a team. Smoke is good to use if you are having trouble capping a flag. C-4 is nice to use for easy double and triple kills on flags.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?CRA1G1690 May 6, 2012 10:16 AM (in response to blb128)
Started using C4 last night for the first time in any cod and yeah, works a treat on this.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?QwertyBoredom May 6, 2012 11:29 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
support is your friend if you can get a good ammount of kills i recommend going support with hardline and chosing only the UAV and CUAV you should easily be able to keep them up the whole match giving a huge advantage.
don't be afraid to camp the flags if you have two of them.
don't triple cap unless you are on Dome.
be prepaired for Stealth bombers and EMPs every match due to the length.
try to play with friends.
use a stinger.
mines use bettys and claymores to protect flags, make use of the trophy system when capping or defending as it will protect from predators and grenades, think about the tac insertion.
LMGs are great for defending.
some map notes to go on top of the above.
Arkaden - go for A and B a single good sniper can hold both theses by themselves.
Resistance - go for C and B and its much better to snipe B from the C side as you can head-glitch from the stairs you can't from the other side.
Mission - never get A it is effectivly in a hole where the other team can surround it with the hight advantage.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?CRA1G1690 May 6, 2012 11:39 AM (in response to QwertyBoredom)
Started yesterday using just UAV and BV but changed to UAV/SB/JR because I didn't find the UAV as handy as it is in TDM or KC when you had no idea where the enemy was but in this you can always tell where they are apart from a few drifters down the flanks and also because of the amount of points I get in this mode, usually get 2 stealth bombers a game.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?dtuchpunk May 6, 2012 11:28 AM (in response to CRA1G1690)
Get B at the start. Find spots to get it with the most cover.
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?QwertyBoredom May 6, 2012 12:47 PM (in response to CRA1G1690)
you can use a shotty/smg with extream conditioning and blast shield and rush flag B from the start to
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?rapsfan7 May 6, 2012 2:58 PM (in response to CRA1G1690)
Hey I've read the forums for a while but your post prompted me to register. Figured I could help you out a bit as a guy who plays primarily Dom and plays almost exclusively solo (which from the sound of your post is the situation you're in). Also, all my tips will be focused on winning, not on racking up the most kills possible.
Note: this is all for 6 v 6. Most will apply to ground war too but not all.
1. Have an extreme conditioning class. This is necessary for rushing flags when you desperately need a capture. Put a good smg on here (Mp7, pp90, p90, UMP). In some maps I recommend capturing B right off the bat, in these cases start with this class (you can switch to something else once you have 2 flags).
2. Sadly, the majority of people who play domination play it to get kills and maintain their KD. Honestly this is really easy to do due to predictable spawns people just take advantage of players who play the objective. Due to this, unfortunately you cannot count on your team to capture or hold flags, or to not ruin the spawns. With that said, do whatever you can to help the 2-3 guys on your team when they try to play the objective.
3. Blast shield might seem like a good idea, but it sucks in this game. Don't worry about it, use any of the other perks.
4. If using quickdraw, c4 is amazing for clearing some flags. Get used to using it.
5. The following maps it is easy and helpful to the team to capture B right off the bat (as in ignore your starting flag).
Resistance- hide behind the piece of wall that sticks out. Can be captured regardless of inital spawn. You want this one as it is incredibly difficult to capture later if other team has any campers using t95/mk14/snipers
Seatown- Use the stand in front of the overlooking window as cover. This one is very hard to capture later on if team is intent on defending it.
Arkaden- If coming from C stay left and aim gun straight ahead. If coming from A stay left and aim gun at entrance on the right.
Hardhat- If coming from C use the tractor in front of you as cover. You will probably have to kill 1 or 2 people to take flag tho. If coming from A, stay to the left at B and just lay down. You can usually cap it without them even noticing.
Outpost- No trick here, but this flag can be hard to take later so i recommend just going for it early.
6. Now for the first big problem with MW3 domination: The starting positions on most maps are completely unfair.
Village: If you start between B and C, go for C unless other teammates go there. Most teammates will go for B as it gets them easier kills. If you start A, you can either try to rush to C (need Extreme Conditioning) or you can grenade B while taking A and try to take B quickly. Taking B can be difficult if the other team is good at placing their grenades.
Dome: If you start between B and C, go for B. This is an easy cap if you don't suck at shooting. Now your teammates will likely go for kills and might not even capture C, but that's ok as C is really easy to capture if you know the right spot (don't know how to describe it really). If you start A, you can either just take A or try to rush B. I generally rush B and try to throw a C4 on the flag. Most of the time you will die but sometimes it works and then you can capture B.
Mission: As many people have mentioned, if you only hold A on this map you are screwed. Therefore, if you start C, rush B so they only have A. This is an easy cap. If you start A, I recommend trying to take B right away, but you have farther to go. With good use of flashes/stuns and grenades as well as some decent shooting you can capture it though. With this map though i recommend trying to take C as soon as possible and leave them with A.
Fallen: If you start B (C is far away), you can generally take B and still have time to run and take C if you have extreme conditioning. If you start A, just take the points and then work your way over to C, hope no one on their team caps it first.
Interchange: This map makes no sense for domination. You don't really start close to any flags. I would recommend going for B regardless since that flag is a nightmare to cap later. In general i would try to avoid this map though.
Downturn: Worst map I've ever played other than maybe Convoy from BO DLC. Avoid this map as it sucks. Luckily people almost never vote it.
7. Without a team, its hard to control which 2 flags you are going to hold. I recommend holding the one that is the hardest to take back. Do whatever you can to hold.
B in Seatown.
B in Interchange
B in resistance
C and B is Mission (hard to do, but having A is a nightmare).
Don't let them take A and C in Fallen, any other combo can be fixed though.
B in Village (holding A is ideal as it provides superior protection from air support and its easier to hold them at C even when playing solo).
B in Dome. I like to hold A too as its easy to defend by lobbing grenades and C is easy to cap if you ever need to triple cap.
Arkaden all 3 flags can be taken somewhat easily. If trying to capture B make sure no one is on the top level overlooking it.
In Hardhat its important to not let them control the middle of the map. While you probably can't control it yourself you can't let them do it. For this I recommend holding A and doing your best to get B.
I haven't mentioned Bootleg at all. In my opinion it is one of the more fair maps. Getting B can be tough though so try to get it as early as possible.
8. Killstreaks. This depends on how good of a player you are. If you want to run support, feel free regardless of your skill. UAV/CUAV or Vests works well, recon drone is effective, as are stealth bombers and EMPs. If running assault, UAV/Package/Predator work well for weaker players, stronger players should consider using reapers or AC130's (better than helicopers for domination as it allows you to clear off flags). Predators should be used by all assault players for domination imo.
9. Playing against parties. This sucks. In domination if you are playing a party that actually wants to win there's not much you can do unless you are really really good. Just try to avoid being spawn trapped and if they catch you in a bad one just leave. I don't like rage quitting but if a party is going to do that to a bunch of noobs in a party match they don't deserve to play really.
10. Don't know why it took me this long to mention this but have an anti air class. A reaper or AC 130 can cripple your team if you dont shoot it down quickly.
Other than that, use whatever perks/guns that work for you. Perks are reasonably balanced in this game (Assassin too strong but not so much in dom).
Hope it helps
Re: Got any Domination tips for me?Jd_Blitz May 6, 2012 4:50 PM (in response to CRA1G1690)
and if you have problems taking b after the enemy has, try for C or A even if they start taking your point as you take theirs, b should be clear for a moment.

Re: Got any Domination tips for me?Amaterasu9 May 7, 2012 5:14 PM (in response to CRA1G1690)
If your playing with randoms and keep caping flags but your teammates never protects them just go for kills cause trying to cap flags with a team like that is to stressful.
Remember that guy who tells you you're losing a flag but by the time he says it it's to late or already captured? Watch your flags icon at all times when you can cause once it starts blinking that will alert you if a enemy is capturing it and have more of a chance to stop them cause you would know the instant they stand on it.
If you're good at getting many kills in one game. Be a killwhore but use support with emp. (dont try to capture unless you're sure you can do it alone or if a team mate is already on it) You're helping your team out by just killing them holding them back.
If you get two-three emp's per a game save your first emp till you're 4 kills away and use it so you can get another one to emp them again once you hear them using something again.
Your teammates are scouts on the map. You see one of them disappear off the map then the enemy is there.(unless your teammate was sniped by someone far away)
thats all i can think of right off the bat but i'll try to put in more helpful tips later.

But, is that a just rumor or did that come from a legitimate source?
But, is that a just rumor or did that come from a legitimate source?
Although he was probably the one most likely to commit, I am not surprised he didn't by any means. His decision is a pretty big one, as it will likely come with his two teammates as well. IMO if he wasn't commiting for 2 other people as well, he would probably have commited over the weekend.
He's not committing for two other people.
What I read earlier said that he wanted to talk to his parents and coaches about his decision. It didn't mention talking to his two teammates, but I assumed it was just an oversight. I would think that if they really plan on being a package deal that he'll want to talk to them about it as well, especially the 2014 kid. I also don't know if we should expect a committment from him prio to his 2014 teammate making his visit either. If I remember correctly, Artavis Scott hasn't been to A2 since the BBQ. Someone that follows recruiting much closer can clarify that.
I'm wondering if Scott is even close to committing anywhere at this point. If he isn't, could Cole be that close?
If Cole is that close to committing, could this be the point in most package deals where the good intentions are overcome by the acknowledgement that the most important thing is that each player finds the best school for himself.
I'd pay very little attention to any package deal talk.
I usually do, but I feel like the first time I totally disregard a reported package deal will be the first time it actually works out. I usually just take it with the proverbial grain of salt. Since I haven't heard them say going separate ways is even a possibility, I still consider it's possible that this might be the first time a package deal sticks together.
Captain obvious is here with the news that the next commit is probably either Doles or Cole...
I was at the game yesterday and was about 30 ft from where all the recruits and coaches where sitting. Harris & Speight sat together the whole time. All the coaches where there. Mattison was sitting next to a middle aged man most of the game which I'm guessing was a recruits dad? Freddy J and the other coaches made it around to the recruits talking to them. McDowell was in the first row aisle seat and saw Funk, Helsinki, Fred J all come to talk to him. Saw Mattison sitting next to him before the game.
Before the game a very tall bald guy walked in and I said , wow that guy has to be 7'-5. As he got closer I saw it was Zyldrunas Ilgauskas (sp?). Saw a NBA pass around his neck so he's there scouting. Not sure who he works for.
Also, John Navarre was in line in front of me waiting to get in with his wife and son
Btw,I hadn't been in Crisler for a game since 2006, it is simply amazing now.
Forgot to mention about Hoke. I'm sure everyone saw him sitting next to Beilein & Al Glick. He was fun to watch, he was very vocal getting on the refs a bit (with a smile) and encouraging the players as they came off the court. On his feet cheering with the student section. Saw he & Beilein exchanging a few words even during the game. Blue jeans, buttoned shirt untucked....love that guy
Helsinki lol
Yea my bad, had a Swedish blonde on my mind as I was typing
Hecklinski, Hecklinski, Hecklinski, Hecklinski, Hecklinski, Hecklinski,
Hecklinski, Hecklinski, Hecklinski
I thought Helsinki is in Finland
Helsinki is in Finland.
Edit: Damn it, Jeff
There's no doubt the new Crisler is a FAR better place to bring recruits than the old days when it was dark and an unexciting atmosphere. I remember watching the recruits coming in in the mid-80's. No student section in the center. Dim lights. Not much going on at halftime. No video boards. We still seemed to do OK I guess, recruiting-wise.
Ilgauskas is an assistant GM for the Cavs.
has been a factor of being absent a QB who can make "all the throws" since 2007. OU had Bradford/Jones, OkSU with Weeden, USC with Barkley et al. Plus those offenses then shifted their priority to pass with a plus passer. UM coaches need to sell that that era is coming upon us soon with better arms and play action going to be an actual threat.
I agree. I think Gardner's performance this year at least legitimized the claim that Michigan would be able to return to a pro-style offense. If he had sat on the bench the entire year, there wouldn't be any evidence to show that Hoke wanted to return to those days other than the recruitment of Shane Morris. As much as I like Denard Robinson, I don't think he's a guy that wide receivers were beating down the door to pair up with.
When you say we've seen this before, do you mean great recruiting weekends leading toward fast starts to strong recruiting classes? Because that's what we've seen before.
This is why we think every big recruit that visits will commit.
What was actually said, "Wilton before we left said if I go there that he wants to room with me."
What Coach Brown said, "Wilton Speight tells me he and Drake Harris got very close during this weekend's visit. They actually talked about being roommates."
The power of journalism.
It's going to be a process to bring him over to the Maize and Blue, but we are on the right track. Is this pretty much a two-horse race, or is he strongly considering schools outside Michigan? Just comparing the MSU and U-M programs in the next few years, the QB situation at Michigan has to give us a big advantage.
Sounds like we'll have to fend off Bama and OSU as well.
I have a fear of Harris staying at MSU... All this talk about how he won't stick there because he was thinking basketball first just sounds like an excuse for hoping that he won't. The more I hear people say he will go somewhere other than state just makes me fear more he will prove everyone wrong. I really want him at Michigan, but state has a really really good shot to keep him.
I really think there's more to it than that. He's even said so himself. He wants to concentrate on football, and MSU probably doesn't offer him the best opportunity.
Yeah I understand, but why stay committed to them?
If they don't pull his offer, keep the commitment there until you're absolutely sure where else you want to go, just in case.
Do you burn your bridges behind you?
But I burn the boats.
Because if a school is letting you hold a commitment spot while you go out and look for better places, what good does it do to give up that spot?
I seriously think that MSU may not even be in his top 5 when everything is said and done, I see 3 way battle between UM, OSU and Alabama with some pass happy spread offense teams trying to muscle their way in.
He's planning to visit Florida, OSU, and Michigan again, etc and you think he'll stick with MSU? Have you been to East Lansing?
Keep this up Wilton an we'll have to call you Suga Speight.
Please don't, I'd like to keep him commited
He had (another) good visit here. He has been to MSU multiple times recently, has been here and says he will visit here again, and then says he also wants to visit OSU. He has visits lined up pretty much through March and that's not even addressing any SEC programs or anyone else he might be interested in.
Is there any reason to believe this won't be a long, drawn-out recruitment? Could make for a lot of pain in the mgo community. I'm just going to take a backseat on this one for a little while and not get too stressed because this could be crazy. ESPECIALLY if he waits until the fall to take official visits. With his visit schedule along spanning the next month+, I just can't imagine there is anything to read into right now.
@CoachBrown3: Mark it down right now at 11:11 pm on February 25th, 2013. Drake Harris will be a #Michigan Wolverine.

This is such a delicious quick bread. I really like the suggestion of one reviewer who wrote that she left the cranberries whole... that way you get the maximum flavor. I quess my only (very small) complaint about this bread was that I wanted more cranberries. I would probably double the amount next time. Thank you Karin for submitting this recipe! p.s. I made another batch and baked it as mini loaves... recipe made 4; they were done in 25 min.... love this recipe!
This bread was wonderful! After greasing the pan, I sprinkled cinnamon and sugar in the pan to give the crust a sweet crunch. I sprinkled some extra chopped walnuts and some "sugar in the raw" on top before baking, and it really does look like a picture! Tastes great and a beautiful holiday bread. Takes no time to whip together too!
Excellent and Easy. This is the recipe on the back of the cranberry bags. Other than doubling the amount to 2 cups of berries and keeping them whole, I don't change a thing. Don't overbake. 50 min. exactly is right. If the dough is too stiff, add a few tablespoon of milk to moisten it up. TIP - for a prettier bread, place some cranberries on top of the batter before you bake it. The red color on top adds a gorgeous appearance to the bread. I also glaze mine with a lemon glaze. The glaze gives it a little tart flavor on top and keeps the bread moist. (glaze - lemon juice and powdered sugar). Glaze while warm.

Scattered Clouds

Surrounded by sand dunes, Lake Disappointment is an ephemeral salt lake in one of the most remote areas of Western Australia. Located just south of Rudall River National Park, Lake Disappointment is home to many water birds. According to Aboriginal people, mythological beings are said to live in a subterranean world beneath the lake, and the lake and its surroundings are still considered
taboo. In this 2000 Terra image, the gold and orange-brown areas are sand and outcrops of sedimentary rock. The dunes appear as long, linear streaks. The different colors with sharp boundaries may be traces of brush fires, with yellow being the most recent. The lake is white where bright salty deposits are visible, and blue areas are shallow water in the western part and the margins.

Law firm takes final shot at stopping £110m Cru redress scheme
by Jun Merrett on Nov 23, 2012 at 13:01
Law firm Foot Anstey has made a last-ditch attempt to fight the Financial Services Authority's (FSA) £110 million Arch Cru redress scheme, following revelations the regulator is pursuing the scandal-hit funds' former managers.
The firm is representing advisers with client money in Cru who could face crippling bills under the FSA's compensation plans.
It has written to the regulator, which was set to discuss the scheme at its board meeting, arguing that news of cases against Arch Financial Products and its bosses Robin Farrell and Robert Addison meant implementing the scheme would be 'fundamentally unfair'.
'Before any liability is imposed on any party, the facts must be gathered and analysed to ensure the imposition of liability is fair and proportionate,' said Foot Anstey partner Alan Hughes.
'Given the constantly evolving picture on the Arch Cru funds, that cannot and should not be done now.'

And is the FSA likely to take the slightest bit of notice? If it's free to wave two fingers at the TSC, it'll have no hesitation about doing the same to a firm of lawyers which, it will decide, is merely trying to get its clients of the hook of what the FSA perceives to be their rightful come-uppance.report this
Nov 23, 2012 at 14:49
The FSA will not be able to enforce this due to their mistake in accepting the £54M from Capita without knowing the exact extent of the shortfall & taking no account of potential future falls in asset values. They have now realised their mistake and actually started to look at alternatives. At the end of the day it's Political power that will sort it out & all should visit their MP to get on Board with the committee headed by Alun Jones.report this

My response to this CP was possibly the most vociferous of my professional life. Like many IFAs i have long felt that FSA consultation papers were ignored and used by them as whitewash i.e. "we have consulted on this and will carry on anyway".
I actually believe that the response to this CP by advisers may have actually hit home.
I live in hope.report this

@ Simon
I personally think that even the FSA will realise that the attempt to gloss over their incompetence in this matter has failed. In my book EVERYONE is to blame here: Arch, Maguire, Capita, BoNY, HSBC, FSA, AND the advisers who were suckered into this disaster.
However, Capita were the ACD, and FSA the regulator. The primary blame lies with them. Advisers are also to blame, but as an industry we are all aware that advisers have always been the weak link in the chain. Salesmen in fancy suits promising the earth have long been able to streamroller advisers into products which they don't understand. Hopefully the Arch Cru disaster will actually make advisers think about what they are selling to their clients, and look under the hood (or use out sourced research facilities).
What needs to happen now is that this is sorted by making everyone involved pay to put the client back to where they would have been if they had been in a suitable investment. In all the discussions on here we all appear to have forgotten that our duty of care to our clients is of primary concern here.
What Arch Cru also demonstrates is that the Oeic structures are nowhere near as robust as the AUT ones, where the trustee structure lays a lot more responsibility onto the individuals concerned. Coincidence that most of the DIFs out there are Oeics?report this

The 2013-14 men's basketball season will take flight for the Lamar State College-Port Arthur Seahawks with a two-day tournament trip to Pensacola, Fla. this weekend.
The Seahawks, who return second-year players for the first time in three seasons, will face Gulf Coast, Fla., State on Friday at 5:30 p.m. and Pensacola State College on Saturday at 7:30 Saturday.
Head coach Lance Madison started the 2012-13 season from scratch in his first year at the helm. A masterful, albeit short, recruiting season resulted in a 21-11 record and a trip two games deep into the NJCAA Region XIV Tournament. The season was heralded as a surprising success considering all players on the team joined the Seahawks at the last possible moment.
Now, a year later, a half-dozen returning sophomores, joined by a sophomore transfer, will battle to reaffirm the fact that last season's success was no fluke.
Conference Respect
Region XIV coaches have taken notice of the Seahawks. During the preseason voting among the league's coaches, LSC-PA was picked No. 3 among the seven South Zone teams, just behind No. 1 Lee College and second-ranked San Jacinto College.
A year ago, the Seahawks wound up fourth with a 10-9 conference record, good enough to clinch a spot in the regional tournament in Tyler. Once there, the Hawks pummeled Paris College before falling to Navarro College in the quarterfinals.
Now, the Seahawks are reaping the reputation they earned a year ago. The Hawks received two first-place votes among the coach balloting.
"This is such a tough conference," Madison said. "These are just preseason picks but it gives you an idea of who coaches think have the best talent in the league. We had some great numbers last season and we've got four strong guys coming back this year. When you look at these preseason polls, you're really only going on what happened last year and the talent each team has coming back."
Sophomore six-pack, plus one
The returning talent for the Seahawks is indeed impressive. For the first time in three seasons, the Seahawks have a returning sophomore class. But these are no everyday players, these are returning starters who set school records this past season.
Anthony Allen, the school's first-ever 7-footer, collected 155 blocked shots during the regular season last year, finishing as the No. 1-ranked shot-blocker in the nation in junior college basketball. He terrorized opposing shooters in the paint and at 7-1, stands as a formidable presence again in 2013-14. In addition, his move to the basket on offense is stronger with experience and confidence, adding to his already mult-faceted abilities on the court.
Sophomore Jamal Shabazz was the go-get-'em guy on the boards last season, pulling down a team-best 8.7 rebounds. A player who likes to go by "Showtime," Shabazz's game is as much about substance as it is flash. The Austin-area native scored 9.9 points a game a year ago and looks to be a bigger contributor on offense as the season progresses.
Tre Bennett is no stranger to success on the hardwood. The Houston sophomore guard is a product of the storied Yates program and the confidence he brought from high school is still palpable on the court. After a year on the collegiate floor, his ball-handling abilities have grown even further.
European player Ivan Jelencic, from Croatia, is back in the fold this season and is expected to have a greater impact after becoming more accustomed to the high-speed juco game in America. Also back is long-ball shooter Evan White of San Antonio, who made 38 3-pointers a year ago, and Jamaican Garth Brown at guard.
D.J. Blanks transferred to Lamar State after a year at Glanville State University in West Virginia. He started 21 games as a true freshman, averaging more than 11 points a game.
"Our sophomores bring leadership and mental toughness after spending a season playing in this region," Madison said. "They've played tough games and they know how to win close games late. They know what I expect out of them and they are prepared to do the work that needs to be done to win games."
Freshman Phenoms
Four freshmen join the ranks this season and Madison expects these fresh faces to make a splash in their first collegiate appearances.
Guards Erik Durham, JoJo Mooring and Antonio Dawson, as well as center/forward Cirkook Riak came to Lamar State this season. As freshmen, they add uncharacteristic depth and experience to an already deep roster.
"We have a good group of freshmen," Madison said. "They have good basketball IQ and a good skill-set."
Durham, from Springfield, Mo., averaged 25.3 points a game in high school, while Mooring, of Chicago, averaged 19 points and shot 80 percent from the free throw line. Dawson, who is from Coral Gables, Fla., averaged 14 points a game in high school. Riak, a 6-8 forward/center from Australia, adds depth to the Seahawks' interior.
Madison said he will count on Durham and Mooring, as well as sophs White, Bennett, Jelencic and Shabazz, to bring a long-distance shooting threat to the floor, which should open even more scoring opportunities in the paint for Allen this season.
"If we can spread the floor with strong outside shooting, that opens up the lanes and gives Anthony better opportunities to score inside," Madison said. "It's going to be an exciting season for us this year. There will be some great games."
The Hawks open a five-game home stand on Saturday, Nov. 9, when they host Texas Southern University JV at the Carl Parker Center. Tipoff is at 4 p.m.

Dawn of the dead is the greatest remake in my opinion.
Are there Any good remakes?JIBiohazard on Friday, November 10, 2006 - 10:49pm
It's hard to lump remakes into one big bucket o' blood. Some of the original movies are "inferior" to today's because of budgetary constraints, and even the differences in technology, ie, camera and film, special effects...
A lot too has to do with the director and the vision they have for the remake. Maybe they felt a certain angle was left out of the original, or the story didn't jive with the original book/script. Take "The Shining." Stephen King was very displeased with the way Kubrick took with the script, so several years ago King decided to remake the movie in HIS eyes. Personally, while the remake followed the story line and underlying psyche problems better (Nicholsen was psychotic, King's was a drunk), I think the remake sucked.
Now as for House on Haunted HIll, MUCH better, and yet much further from the original storyline. The effects, and the way it was told give it that superiority....
JMO though.....

Are there Any good remakes?Alcoholocaust on Friday, November 10, 2006 - 11:07pm
Remakes can be fine as long as the filmmaker respects the original, and adds something new. "The Thing" and "The Fly" were probably better than the originals. "Dawn of the Dead" was really good. It's a shame, though, that it's easier to get the money to remake something than to create something new.
I agree... that's why I respect the ORIGINAL horrors out there! Take "Plan 9 From Outer Space." Low budget Ed Wood movie... SOOOOO bad, it was good. Now remake that and suffer dire consequences. But all this is not to say that I don't like remakes. Loved the new Dawn, and yes... House on Haunted Hill. And the new Hills added alot to the original. But there are so many remakes, and so few originals. It really makes me have a profound respect for the direction and the storylines of the older versions.
Now, the Hellraiser remake should be decent, provided they get Doug Bradley back... just insn't Pinhead unless it was him... and the fact that Clive Barker is directing it. Should be great!

The Dawn remake wasn't entirely horrible. I think it could have stood on its own two shambling, decaying feet had it not have the DAWN OF THE DEAD tag proverbially tied to its toe. It would have been a very good ORIGINAL movie.
...was very good, but the original is just sooo amazing that the remae doesn't even come close. I have the original RKO Radio release of THE THING (1950s) on VHS. Absolutely gorgeous color and dirt.
Give me a friggin break here. No one can EVER touch this movie. LEATHERFACE's name is not THOMAS HEWITT..its BUBBA SAWYER. Andrew Brynarski is a disgrace to Mr. Gunnar Hansen and Mr. Bill Johnston.
Absolutely stunning performances by Goldblum and Davis. This is one of the better movies that brought a more modern approach to the orignal. The effects were great and the actors were terrific, the monkey kicked ass, and everyone was happy. I believe this won a few OSCARS if only one. THE BEST REMAKE OUT THERE
Very tasteful remake. Tom Savini has a very good eye behind the camera. And I'm not just kissing his ass here because its true. Also, my folks used to scare me about this one because if you listen to the T.V. the anchor says STOCKTON, CA...THAT'S MY HOMETOWN!!!
Both of these are ingenious but I like the silent film better. Listening to the score and pondering the voice acting was a fond memory.
This one was good. The original was GREAT.
Very interesting story with this one. It's not better than the original but it could have held its own as a sequel....like 30 years later type deal.
Vince Vaughn is great but come on!!! SHOT FOR SHOT!?!?!?!?!
I actually enjoyed this one very much and I can't wait to see the second one. They look to be full fledged monsters now. No clothes or sense of humanity whatsoever...well, they never had much to begin with anyway. This is a good one.
13 Ghost:
Give me a break!
(slicing my own friggin throat!) I'm terribly sorry Vincent Price!
Quadruple horrible!
Come on!!
Don't expect much from everyone, but a magnificent performance from Sean Bean...HAIL RUTGER HAUER!!!
Regretfully lame!
I left out basically any Japanese horror movie AMERICANIZED...not that Japanese horror is good to begin with.... : )
You know what movies those ones are.

RALEIGH — Carlos Rodon couldnt have been much more dominant for N.C. State on Friday night.
But in what has become a familiar story involving the big lefty from Holly Springs, the Wolfpack couldnt get him any run support.
Rodon struck out 15 batters with only two walks in a six-hit complete game, but Georgia Tech starter Josh Heddinger was even more effective as the Yellow Jackets took a 1-0 win in the opener of their three-game series at soggy Doak Field.
Rain delayed the start of the game by an hour.
With the win, the Yellow Jackets improved to 26-17 (12-10 in ACC) while N.C. State fell to 22-19 (7-15 in ACC) and saw its odds of making the conference tournament get just a little longer.
Rodon, who was just one short of his career strikeout high, had at least 10 strikeouts for the 18th time in his three seasons. But because of no run support he fell to 3-7, with no victories over winning teams this season.
It was Friday night, Avent said. We were told Heddinger was one of the best pitchers in the country and that was right. Carlos may be the best. Fifteen punchouts is dominating. We played very, very well. We may have played as good as weve played all year.
We probably hit about nine balls on the screws, but thats just the game of baseball. To their credit, they didnt walk anybody, they didnt make any errors and they didnt hit anybody.
Heddinger (3-2) did exactly what his team needed, going 7 1/3 innings and allowing two hits while striking out four without a walk. Sam Clay picked up his fourth save for Tech.
Josh was very good, Tech coach Danny Hall said. We kind of knew going in wed have to have a performance like that. Carlos Rodon is an outstanding pitcher and an outstanding competitor. Were fortunate that we got one run and made it hold up.
Rodon struck out the side in the first, surpassing the 400 career strikeouts mark by fanning No. 2 hitter Daniel Spignola to become just the fourth ACC pitcher to surpass the milestone.
He faced the minimum through 3 2/3 innings walking Thomas Smith to lead off the second before Smith was erased on a steal attempt before giving up a single up the middle to Matt Gonzalez.
I threw a lot of fastballs early on, Rodon said. I wish I had thrown more changeups, but we threw them when we needed to. I think I threw one for a ball. The slider was there.
I pitched well and the defense was good behind me. Gonzalez just had my number tonight. He had three hits and punched (the winner) through the middle.
Logan Ratledge, who extended his hitting streak to eight games with a first-inning single, was the only Wolfpack player to reach safely until Jake Fincher doubled with one out in the fifth.
Rodon struck out (10 of the first 11 batters), Heddinger said. You dont have to be perfect when you face him, but you have to let your defense work and I really thought I did that tonight.
I was a little off in the beginning, but they hit the ball at people. I mixed pitches really well tonight and that helped me there.
Tech got on the board with its run off a three-hit rally in the sixth. Brandon Gold led off with a single, followed by Arden Pabsts sacrifice bunt. Mott Hyde followed with a single to right, and with two out Gonzalez who finished with three hits deposited a single into left center.
That was the best Ive seen Carlos throw all year, State catcher Brett Austin said. He was getting ahead with his fastball and worked in more changeups. That was as good as hes ever been and he couldnt get any run support.
State leadoff man Trea Turner singled with one out in the ninth to extend his hitting streak to seven games.
Game 2 is Saturday at 1 p.m. (Fox Sports Carolinas), with Patrick Peterson (1-1, 3.79 ERA) taking on Techs Devin Stanton (3-2, 2.68 ERA) in a battle of junior southpaws.
The finale is on Sunday at 1, with junior Logan Jernigan (5-3, 4.01 ERA) squaring off with the Jackets junior Matthew Grimes (4-1, 3.73 ERA).

Throughout the recent history of Middle Tennessee track and field, there have been two constants - veteran coach Dean Hayes and a legacy of championship performances. A renowned track and field coach both in college and professional circles, Dean Hayes has gained great respect since coming to Middle Tennessee 41years ago.
His men's teams dominated the Ohio Valley Conference and the women's teams have duplicated that success since Hayes took over the program in 1987. Both squads have continued their successes since joining the Sun Belt Conference, capturing 11 of the 22 indoor and outdoor titles for which they have been eligible since joining the league five years ago.
Overall, Hayes has guided the programs to 29 OVC titles, 11 Sun Belt championships and 17 NCAA Top 25 finishes, while 39 of his athletes have earned 77 All-American honors, four have become national champions, and a number of them have gone on to compete internationally in the Olympic Games, World University Games and Pan-American Games. There could have been more awards, but Middle Tennessee did not sport a track program from 1987-90.
Hayes has added nine Sun Belt Coach of the Year awards to complement his 15 OVC Coach of the Year honors, including 10 in a row from 1977 to 1986. He was inducted into the Blue Raider Hall of Fame in 1982 and the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame in 1994. Hayes became a member of the Illinois Sports Hall of Fame in 1993, and he was inducted into the Mason-Dixon Athletic Club Hall of Fame in March of 2005.
Following the 1981 season, the Division I Track & Field Coaches Association voted Hayes the NCAA Outdoor Coach of the Year. Hayes served as president of the TFCA in 1982-83.
In his first attempt at a Sun Belt Championship, Hayes delivered, as the Middle Tennessee women took first place in Miami, Fla., in 2000. For leading the women's team to victory, Hayes earned his first Sun Belt Coach of the Year award.
Since taking its place in the Sun Belt full-time prior to the beginning of the 2000-01 academic year, Hayes has brought Middle Tennessee 11 of the 22 league titles in indoor and outdoor track and field. He and his charges were instrumental in capturing the school's first-ever Vic Bubas Cup, the league's all-sports trophy, in 2001, as the track programs garnered three SBC titles that year. The teams have also played a significant role in Middle Tennessee winning the Bubas Cup in 2004 and 2005, as well.
Hayes has indeed put Middle Tennessee on the world map in terms of collegiate track and field.
However, Hayes' experience is not limited to the collegiate level. In fact, Hayes has coached several teams sponsored by either the United States Olympic Committee or USA Track and Field.
His international experience began at the first Olympic Sports Festival in Colorado Springs, Colo. (1978), and includes: working as the head coach at the World University Games in Kobe, Japan (1985); Goodwill Games in Seattle, Wash. (1990); World Cup in London, England (1994); World Championships in Athens, Greece (1997); and again at the Goodwill Games in New York City (1998).
The Naperville, Ill., native also has served as an assistant at several international events. Aside from the first Olympic Sports Festival, Hayes worked as an assistant at the World University Games in Bucharest, Romania (1981), World Championships in Helsinki, Finland (1983), and the Summer Olympic Games in Seoul, South Korea (1988).
In 1996, Hayes served as a referee at the Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, Ga.
Because of Hayes' international success, numerous foreign athletes have sought out Middle Tennessee as their college of choice.
However, Hayes' most successful collegiate athletes at Middle Tennessee have competed in the NCAA triple jump, an event in which Hayes specializes.
He has coached NCAA champions Tommy Haynes (1974) and Barry McClure (1972, '73), as well as NCAA high hurdle champion Dionne Rose (1994) and his most recent national champion, Blue Raider Mardy Scales in the 100-meters (2003). Hayes also guided Roland McGhee to nine All-American honors, while both McClure and Greg Artis have won All-American honors seven times.
Hayes earned his B.A. at Lake Forest (Ill.) where he competed in the 800-meters, the long jump and triple jump, an event in which he was an NCAA qualifier. After earning his M.S. Ed. at Northern Illinois, Hayes began his coaching career at the high school level in Chicago (three years) and Minneapolis (one year) before returning to Lake Forest and then moving on to Middle Tennessee in 1965.

I have worked in public relations at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway since 1998, back when the old battleship-gray Control Tower still cast a shadow over the front straightaway and the infield road course was just an idea on a cocktail napkin. I want this Web site to provoke thought, evoke emotion, build a sense of shared community among race fans and give everyone the virtual experience of what an amazing, electric place IMS is during a race weekend. This place oozes racing history and tradition; you can feel the ghosts every time you walk in. Outside of racing, my first sports love is boxing. I also dig hockey, football, riding my mountain bike, downhill skiing, rock, classic jazz and progressive house music (weird mix, I know), PC sim racing, reading, the Web, my wife and our three nutso, sweet kids. I tweet periodically, mostly about boxing and racing, @pk500.

My freelance coverage of IndyCar racing began in 2003, but the seeds were planted long before that. As a sportswriter for The Des Moines Register, I covered a wide variety of beats, including Nebraska football, Drake football and basketball, Iowa wrestling and – key point here – Knoxville Raceway. My interest in racing led to regular coverage of the Indianapolis 500 beginning in 1992. In 2003, I left the newspaper and moved to Indianapolis to cover IndyCar racing for several clients, including RACER, Autosport and IndyCar magazines and their websites. The list of clients for the 500 has expanded to include versus.com and the annual advertising section in Sports Illustrated. I surrendered Colts and Butler basketball season tickets for the sunshine of Florida in 2009, but still spend the month of May in Indianapolis and spend the rest of the season chasing the IZOD IndyCar Series around the country.

While growing up in Indiana, I developed a deep love and understanding of the Indianapolis 500, with names such as Parnelli Jones, A.J. Foyt, Jim Clark and Mario Andretti taking on legendary status. Memorial Day meant the family cookout with the voice of Sid Collins calling the race on the radio in the family backyard in Koontz Lake, Ind. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway held a certain magic, but I did not attend my first Indianapolis 500 until 1981 while I was attending Indiana University. Crammed up against the fence inside the fourth turn in the infield, seeing the colors of the cars and the high-pitched whine of the engines, I was instantly hooked. I was the sports intern at The Toledo Blade that summer and covered my first race at the 1981 Michigan 500.
After graduating from IU, I began a sports writing career in North Carolina that included stops at The Gazette in Gastonia, N.C., before moving on to United Press International, National Speed Sport News, Autosport, ESPN SportsTicker and SI.com, where I am an auto racing columnist for Sports Illustrated's website. Throughout that journey, I have won numerous awards in both the American Auto Racing Writers and Broadcasts Association (AARWBA) and the National Motorsports Press Association (NMPA). I am a two-time winner of the Russ Catlin Award, considered one of the most prestigious awards in motorsports journalism, for best auto racing story in 1987 and 1999. I have covered every Indianapolis 500 since 1989.

Resource Library
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-MT) and ranking Republican Orrin Hatch (R-UT) sent a Dear Colleague letter on June 27, 2013 proposing a "blank-slate" approach as the legislative starting point for tax reform. They called on their Senate colleagues to provide input and proposals by July 26th on which tax expenditures should be retained or improved in a reformed tax code. Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) has sponsored a letter in support of retaining long-term tax incentives that will continue to encourage the growth of clean and renewable domestic energy resources.
With widespread U.S. concerns over India's trade practices and policies, the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) – along with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) and nearly 40 other leading American business groups – are urging Vice President Biden to raise these concerns during his visit to India later this month.

My Rating
Professional driver, clean and well maintained car. No crazy NYC driving. What a relief
New York City, New York
My Rating
Wish we didn't have to go all the way to 42 St to pick up tix with huge lines. Go early to pick up. Don't buy broadway tix here - takes the staff forever to obtain them (2 phone calls, mostly on hold) big markup, and have to return to 42 St to pick up tix later. Tour was fine but signage of where to pick up bus again was not clearly marked or accurate on map.
New York City, New York
My Rating
Such a relief to find greeter right away after 2 long flights. Greeter helped with luggage then took us to curb to wait for driver. Nice system because you didn't have to maneuver through parking lot to find car.

Adornment is an important part of our lives, it is unique to the human race, and universal among all people. We use jewelry to express who we are. What we chose to wear can denote our intellect, creativity, and power to those around us. It also serves to communicate ideas of cultural importance such as our marital status, membership to a club, company or other group as well as our social or political standing.
Jewelry is art. Art that is at once the expression of the artist and the person who wears it. And because we wear these objects on our bodies, our jewelry is full of personal intent. Rarely is it "about" the jewelry. It is the meaning behind our jewelry that is important. The antique locket you never take off - a gift from your favorite aunt.
The filigree platinum and diamond ring you wear on your right hand - it was your grandmother's. The aquamarine and diamond earrings - you bought them when you earned your last promotion. The diamond eternity band on your left hand - your wedding band that you had custom made to fit perfectly with your engagement ring that your perfect husband had custom made for his special proposal.
I am fortunate to be a jewelry designer. It gives me the opportunity to play a small role in the celebrations of life. It is a role I take seriously. From the design concept, to the selection of precious metals and gemstones to the exceptional craftsmanship that brings the ideas to life, I think about the details. These details make the jewelry special now, and with an eye towards the future, I strive to create a certain timelessness that will assure enjoyment for decades to come.

Several Downriver communities offer recycling services from curbside pick up, either free or for a small fee, or free recycling drop off at a designated recycling center.
Trenton does not offer curbside recycling. Instead, residents can take recyclables to the at no cost.
Cities like Southgate and Woodhaven offer free curbside recycling. Riverview, much like Trenton, allows residents to drop off recyclables at a designated recycling center at no cost to the resident. Wyandotte offers curbside recycling through Waste Management for a fee of $7.55 per month.
Trenton officials attempted to implement curbside recycling in October 2004 for for a fee of $32.96 per year, but the required 300 residents needed to continue the service was not met and the service was discontinued in January 2005.
The program was offered to Trenton residents through a third party called Republic Services.
City Administrator Jim Wagner said the attempt failed miserably and no subsequent discussion has been made regarding curbside recycling in Trenton.
Some Trenton residents have voiced interest in curbside recycling on the Trenton Patch Facebook page. Four residents said they would be willing to sign a petition to get the service in Trenton -- if a petition existed.
Trenton resident Jen McConnell said she remembers when Trenton offered the service and would love to be able to use her old recycle bin for curbside service.
Wagner said the service would likely cost residents a reasonable fee if it were reinstated.
Trenton officials have not discussed curbside recycling. There are no plans of beginning the service.
Trenton Patch wants to know if curbside recycling would work in Trenton, if administrators were to give it another chance, and if residents would be willing to pay for the service.
