Top Definition
A small town that is the most southwesterly city in the United States. Unlike the other definitions say, it is not a city full of assholes. It is like any other normal small town, it has its good and its bad parts. Yes there may be some assholes but there is assholes everywhere not just here. Most of the people are pretty chill and relaxed. It is not dangerous as others have written. Of course if you go and act stupid with the wrong people then it will b dangerous. Just dont be a dumbass and you'll be good. It is a nice beach town where you can go to the beach and relax.
I went to Imperial Beach the other day with my friends and we went to relax at the beach.

Spore faces biggest pirate attack
Sinking the single-player game
ACCORDING TO a weblog, video game Spore has been named the most pirated PC game of this year.
The Torrentfreak bog compiled a list of the 10 most downloaded PC games in 2008 using data from the peer-to-peer sharing protocol, BitTorrent.
A reported 1.7m illegal downloads of Spore were recorded since the game was released in September of this year. The game's seller, Electronic Arts (EA) said it sold nearly 2 million copies. Will Wright, the creator of Spore, found his other big-selling EA game title, The Sims 2, coming second on the list with 1.15m illegal copies downloaded.
Unfortunately for Will Wright the Digital Rights Management (DRM) software used for the game Spore came under considerable criticism when the game was first released. Understandably so, as this, Torrentfreak says, was the main reason it was so quickly pirated.
The original DRM used for Spore limited customers to three activations after the game was installed.
This prevented legitimate customers from being able to enjoy the game conveniently, whilst effectively killing the second-hand market.
Shockingly enough, the pirated version of the game tipped up less than 24 hours after Spore was shipped. The pirated version came without any DRM, of course, so within 10 days of the game's launch more than half a million people had their hands on a DRM-free version.
EA subsequently released a 'DRM-lite' version that allowed an unlimited number of installations – however, this was too little too late for EA to avoid vocal criticism.
Freelance games journalist Paul Pressley told the Beeb that the pirating of games is inevitable. "The best [games publishers] can do is come up with measures that stem piracy as much as they can, without impeding legitimate customers," Pressley said.
Pressley went on to say that the PC market is getting smaller in terms of single-player games and publishers do overstate the problem.
"The majority of their sales are console-based, which makes piracy much harder and while pirates will take a small percentage of their sales, the majority of people will buy a legitimate copy of the game," he said.
Noticeably absent from the list are online-only games.
Unlike single-player games, games such as World of Warcraft (WoW) require an active subscription rather than a legitimate copy of the game in order to play. WoW now has more than 11 million subscribers worldwide, and Warhammer Online shifted more than 1.2m units in the first few weeks after its launch.
However, game developers are increasingly withdrawing from creating new PC titles. That fact, and a seemingly unbreakable subscription model for online gaming makes it look like game pirates could sink the commercial viability of single-player games. µ

Colombian Police Seize $15 million Worth of Assets Linked to Mexican Drug Lord
Colombian police on Thursday said they had seized more than $15 million dollars in assets linked to the leader of Mexico's Sinaloa drug cartel, Joaquin El Chapo Guzman. The seized items and properties belonged to one of Guzman's most trusted confidants, Pedro Antonio Bermudez Suaza, known by his alias, 'The Architect.'
Bermudez Suaza was arrested in Mexico in 2008 and is currently in a New York jail. He reportedly cooperated with U.S. officials who worked with Colombia's Central Directorate of the Judicial Police and Intelligence (DIJIN) and Interpol to make the busts.
Authorities believe Bermudez Suaza amassed his fortune by running flights loaded with cocaine from Colombia to the Sinaloa cartel in Mexico. Police raided his properties in Bogota, Medellin, Cali and a number of smaller cities in the Antioquia department. Since 2010 DIJIN has seized 264 assets belonging to the Sinaloa organisation worth an estimated $150 million dollars.

COATESVILLE James Kennedy squeezed into a car with eight other young men, all armed with rifles and shotguns. They drove the old Chandler to a jailhouse in their hometown of Coatesville and stationed themselves across the street, joined by about 40 other armed young men.
With their guns pointed toward the building and an understanding that night could be their last, they all had one goal: preventing the lynching of a 16-year-old black boy accused of raping a white peer.

Skip to comments.Shout Out to Hotmetal!
Posted on 05/22/2012 8:01:09 PM PDT by waterhill
Give a shoutout/p.m. to Hotmetal(a FReeper in Afganistan). He needs us right now. Its lonely and desolate over there. Please p.m. or leave a note here. Sorry, brotherman, but I had to let everyone know. We got your back. I posted this for you and all your buds.
Hey dude, we love you! At least me and Carrie do!
Come home safe, brotherman!
My offer stands forever! Prayers up, Soldier! God Speed.
I would appreciate a 'howdy' to Hotmetal from y'all Freepers, and so would he.
How's your day going?
Ping for a FReeper in Afghanistan.
Kick ass & stay safe Hotmetal.
Prayers Up for a Safe Return!!!
Hotmetal! Git 'er done! Be careful out there—and all you guys come home safe!
Keep your Kevlar on, your head down, and know that you are prayed for. If you make into the Dallas area after you rotate out, let me know — I think I may owe you a beer or six...
Well, I'm trying my best to not lose money in my business today. I've been making calls offering my products at ridiculous low prices. I run a wholesale greenhouse. In 2011, Obummer succeeded in making me have my first net loss. Thanks, Obummer. The crappy economy is making sales slow,and today I've had to discount what is left of my inventory to "cost". I am still having trouble getting orders.
It has been nice to get a reality check on this thread, that even though Obummer has succeeded in putting another woman out of business, there are brave US military out there laying their lives on the line. I am not doing that. I am only battling the current anti-American usurper and praying that he leaves office in 2013. If he does not, I am closing my doors for good.
Anywho.....the day is going bad. It's very frustrating to have nice product to sell and no customers. Time is short and soon there will be no demand at all. I have a week to sell and then the season is over.
So, short story long, my day sucks, but I know it is a tiny speck, a molecule, compared to being shot at in war.
Other than the 4 years of suffering under a usurping marxist muslim....everythings going great!
And thanks for watching OUR backs.
We'll keep you and your fellow soldiers in our prayers.
If there's anything you need specific prayer for, send us a prayer request and we'll get on it.
Don't feel obligated to respond to everyone. We understand that you've likely got more pressing thing son your mind.
And tell all your friends thanks, too.
God bless and God speed, Hotmetal.
If you see my nephew, Jim, tell him, Hey!
cold war vet
God speed and God bless you, soldier. May he watch over you and your buddies.
Thank you so much for your willingness to sacrifice so much for liberty. Please know that there are millions of us who appreciate your work.
Thank you for your service! May God bless you and your family.
I don't know if you are familiar with the FReeper Canteen. They are going to add you to the 'prayers list' on the "FReeper Canteen Sunday Chapel Thread".
I worked at a greenhouse as a kid in California.
Anyway, Hotmetal, 1000 thank-yous for your service to our country- keep your head down and spirits up. And remember that circumstances are temporary, and you'll be off to other locales before you realize what's happening. Meanwhile, I think Thursday night the Canteen girls throw their music thread for you. Stop by and check out all the great music and the more or less witty repartee.
God bless you, Hotmetal. Your bravery and efforts do not go unnoticed around here.
Hi Hot Metal.
My family and I are always praying for the troops and I hope you get back home here safe and sound real soon.
Watch out for spiders, snakes, pukes, and characters of interest.
God bless you.
So how've you been? I recall a prayer thread for you over the winter. Hope you're doing better. I did scare up some business late today. Small miracle. Have a good evening!
Prayers Brother. Keep your head down, and get home in one piece.
Semper Fi.
Not too good, on both the financial and health fronts. This economy is TERRIBLE, worse that Jimmy Carter!!
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)
LonePalm, le Républicain du verre cassé (The Broken Glass Republican)
Please don't lose hope. You are admired and respected. You are appreciated more than you know. You are loved and NOT forgotten though some days it may seem that way. Every time I see a soldier in a restaurant, my husband and I pay for whatever they are having. Most of the time we do it without them knowing who we are, just that the waiter tells them their bill has been paid already. We do this to show, in a small way, just how proud and grateful we are for you.
I'll say a special prayer for you tonight that the Lord enfold you in His arms in such a way that it is palpable and that you have a sense of peace that passes all understanding. You won't be there forever, though it may feel like you will, and one day you will be home again. I hope if we ever meet, I can personally give you a hug and buy you the best steak dinner you ever had!
Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. (Joshua 1:9)
I agree, much worse than Carter.
When I hear the fake War on Women mantra, it steams me.
No one has done more to ruin my small business than Obummer.
High costs of doing business, and low demand for product because everyone is suffering.
I actually don't dispise Clinton anymore. I can even look at Hillary and not puke. But Hussein, he's in a league of his own. He will be known as the worst (fake) president ever, no matter how long our republic survives.
I need to go to my happy place....back when Reagan was President!
: )
Keep it together, FRiend. We're rooting for you!
I was filmed to do a shout-out for the Coca Cola 600 race. If you watch the race watch for a medic wearing a scrub top, bonny hat and eye pro from the 223rd EN BN from West Point, MS that will be me.
Hang in there Hotmetal. Glad to hear you'll be home in time to vote. Here's a little musical "pick-me-up" for 'ya when you get a chance. It's a video of a song I wrote and recorded to honor guys (and gals) just like you. Hope you like Country! Enjoy, and PLEASE SHARE! The more active duty personnel that hear this, the better. Enjoy, and God Bless. Here's the link: http://youtu.be/sscwI6pBCJ0
I can't thank you enough.
There is a song that so many of us still do believe in!
America the Beautiful
O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for pilgrim feet
Whose stern impassioned stress
A thoroughfare of freedom beat
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law!
O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife.
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine!
O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for halcyon skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the enameled plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till souls wax fair as earth and air
And music-hearted sea!
O beautiful for pilgrims feet,
Whose stem impassioned stress
A thoroughfare for freedom beat
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till paths be wrought through
wilds of thought
By pilgrim foot and knee!
O beautiful for glory-tale
Of liberating strife
When once and twice,
for man's avail
Men lavished precious life!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till selfish gain no longer stain
The banner of the free!
O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till nobler men keep once again
Thy whiter jubilee!
I will keep an eye out for it, brotherman!
It would be fun to put a care package together for this soldier if someone knows his name, unit, APO and an idea of what goodies would put a smile on his face.
Thanks again everyone for your thoughts and prayers, whenever I get down I come back and read this thread. I will be comming home sometime in September.

The final four teams zoomed around Prague on Sunday for the penultimate leg of The Amazing Race, which had plenty of bickering, (more) villainy by the brothers, an impressive comeback and the fall of fan-favorites. A few more travel tips were established, including the most important Race rule (besides "Don't lose your passport"). --Carrie Bell
Get Hooked on Mnemonics: Leading the pack, All-Americans Meghan and Cheyne arrived first at the Ekotechnicke Museum, where teams searched a room of ringing phones for five with a voice on the other end that revealed a letter. Meghan repeated the letters and assigned each one an animal whose name began with the same letter. It took her only two tries to unscramble Kafka's first name, Franz, for the bureaucrats holding the next clue. Other teams didn't do as well, but Brian (a.k.a. Mr. America) wisely wrote down all possible permutations and handed in the one that made the most sense. This allowed him to surpass a highly frustrated Big Easy even after the teetotaler got tipsy at the absinthe-making speed bump.
Only Dish What You Can Take: As the All-Americans left the roadblock, brothers Dan and Sam pulled up. Just as the first team was going to take the second team's taxi to the next location, the brothers demanded that the driver refuse them a ride -- even though they did the same thing last week to Brian and Ericka. The brothers' double standards continued when Dan and Big Easy decided to work together to solve the word jumble. The Globetrotter showed Dan his work and dictated his guesses, albeit wrong, as he turned them in. But when Dan deciphered the clue correctly, he went back on the deal and only revealed the first correct letter.
Brave the Elements, Drunks and Gods: Spending two minutes in the Kryocentrum's below-freezing cryo-therapy chamber in nothing but skivvies gave Cheyne another opportunity to show off his abs and Ericka to complain. Next up teams could either walk 30 glasses of beer from the brewery through crowded streets to a pub full of rowdy soccer fans or make a golem and lug the unwieldy mythical clay-and-wood creature to the old Jewish quarter to get approval from a rabbi. Delivering beer was difficult as drunk locals heckled and hoped for free pints from Mr. and Miss America, while other teams struggled with their grueling task and took it out on each other. The brothers were particularly out of control -- and were lucky the rabbi accepted their broken-armed guardian.
Never Take a Penalty: After racing strong up until this point, the Globetrotters made a fatal error when they left their fate up to chance and the ability of the competition by choosing a four-hour penalty instead of completing the Kafka task. Flight Time proved once again to be a class act by never giving up and not placing blame even though Big probably could have turned in every single possible answer in less time. No one faltered enough to save them and they were Philiminated on Strelecky Ostrov Island.
Tell us: What did you think about Big Easy's decision to take the penalty? What about Dan's decision not to help him with the word puzzle? Who will win The Amazing Race?CBS

Soldiers Defend Konami's 'Six Days in Fallujah'
Already-controversial Iraq War videogame getting support from armed forces members.
You can't make a videogame called Six Days in Fallujah, and not expect to stir up strong opinions. Konami announced the shooter -- based on the First Battle of Fallujah that took place in Iraq in 2004 -- earlier this week, and it didn't take long for strong condemnations to surface, from both Iraq War veterans and parents of soldiers killed in action.
But unsurprisingly, not all soldiers see eye-to-eye on the game. G4TV spoke with a number of members of the armed forces -- who also identify themselves as gamers -- to get their opinions on the upcoming title. One of the strongest supporters was Sgt. Casey J. McGeorge, who served three tours of duty (36 months) in Iraq. "As a combat veteran and as a gamer, I have no problem whatsoever with the game," McGeorge said. "As long as it's made as realistically as possible, I believe that this could be a good thing for both combat veterans and for the war in general."
Following Sgt. McGeorge's statements was former Army Sgt. Kevin Smith, who hopes the game will give civilians a better understanding of the realities of the war. "Let it be made, and hopefully it will bolster support for military veterans by giving civilians insight into what this war was actually like for them," Smith said. He also hopes that kind of understanding could translate into more support for soldiers returning from combat.
"A lot of soldiers have had a hard time readjusting when they return from war, and this has caused an extremely high suicide rate," Smith said. "I really hope that this title receives positive press and encourages more empathy towards veterans after gamers have 'experienced' what they have gone through."
Another potentially positive aspect was highlighted by Marine Corps. Gunnery Sergeant John Mundy, who said that the game could help as a supplement to training. "I know Marines would use this as a tool to not only give each other knowledge on the battle itself, but also have another tool to get the Marines thinking about Rules of Engagement and such so that they can play the game together and maybe learn a thing or two," Mundy said.
A consistent caveat in this support, though, is that the game be made into a truly realistic depiction of combat, which seems to be the tract developer Atomic Games is taking. "For us, the challenge was how do you present the horrors of war in a game that is also entertaining, but also gives people insight into a historical situation in a way that only a video game can provide," said president Peter Tamte. "Our goal is to give people that insight, of what it's like to be a Marine during that event, what it's like to be a civilian in the city and what it's like to be an insurgent."
Those who have already announced their opposition to the game have stated that a real-life battle that's still so fresh (in a war that, after all, is still going on) isn't appropriate subject matter for a videogame. "Considering the enormous loss of life in the Iraq War, glorifying it in a video game demonstrates very poor judgment and bad taste," said Reg Keys, the father of a British Royal Marine killed in Iraq in 2003, to The Daily Mail. "These horrific events should be confined to the annals of history, not trivialized and rendered for thrill-seekers to play out."

Reflecting LifePosted: Apr 19, 2009 12:00AM PST by Thumbs
If the game is being done in a true to life manner, is being backed by the Services (real intel given and used) and more importantly the troops on the ground then and now support the game, let it be made. I served in the Army for 11 years, deployed to Desert Storm, and have no issue if our troops are shown in the right light. They are our children, family members and friends who volunteered to serve their country. If this game can show others what they dealt with day in and day out, maybe society will treat them better than our Nam vets were treated. Instead of complaining about historical games like this and COD, those claiming to be our morale compasses need to go after games like Grand Theft Auto. Games which promote killing law enforcement, theft, mindless violence, gangs, and drugs need to be stopped.

enourmous loss of life?Posted: Apr 17, 2009 12:00AM PST by GavinSimmons
I am no fan of losing my friends in any war (especially one that I didn't agree with) but to suggest that the Iraq war had an enormous loss of life is absurd considering all the video games about the Vietnam War, WWII, the American Civil War, and the Human-Covenant war.
In fact, I am insulted. Look up those numbers and then complain about Medal of Honor or Call of Duty 2. The United States alone lost more troops on during the Normandy landings than in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars combined. I think we did a halfway decent job considering the circumstances.
Not the First Battle, the SecondPosted: Apr 17, 2009 12:00AM PST by GavinSimmons
It is important to note that this article is incorrect on one point: this game is based on the Second Battle of Fallujah; not the First Battle of Fallujah. The difference being that the First Battle of Fallujah (a year earlier than the second) was a strategic failure (on the part of US/coalition forces). The Army's 82nd Airborne got shot up often, their general came under attack, Iraqi Police were shot up, and I believe some 80 prisoners were released ( a similar problem occurred in Southern Afghanistan about a year later). That's not a fun Western videogame; you'd lose at the end.
I also disagree with anyone who thinks a videogame is a decent training tool for the Marine Corps. Proper training involves physical movement. Proper training involves firing a weapon -at least a paintball weapon, but preferably a rifle with blanks.
Have you not played Man Hunt?Posted: Apr 14, 2009 12:00AM PST by uncontested
They've done snuff already, fyi.
I think it would be interesting.. assuming the game doesnt suck ass like it looks like it will, rofl.
And yes, I'm a Marine, wasn't there for fallujah, but a little shithole insurgent infested place to the west of it (east of ramadi) called Habbaniyah in 06.
Did my last tour up in AQ, which was skate.
Another soldier gamePosted: Apr 13, 2009 12:00AM PST by The_Fallen...
Cash grab. All we need now is a couple of really good really graphic snuff video games, and we'll have covered pretty much all the "controversial" topics one could think of.
If you want to see images of real death rather than just cheap simulations you should visit Rotten.com. After you've seen a guy's head rendered to mush by a shotgun this stuff just seems cheap/tame.
It's about damn time....Posted: Apr 13, 2009 12:00AM PST by Army1
that they make a game of this caliber, as an OIF verteran currently deployed, this makes me happy to see someone is trying to honor my fallen brothers in arms. It has already brought many of us here to intrigue to see if they can pull it off. Three of our higher ups here were in iraq in fallujah in 04, and they said other than a handful of ambushes and IED's, it was rather boring. Still, we are all excited over...i guess when you actually have to fight for your freedom and everyone else's, your opinion changes as opposed to those who don't want to know what it means to actually taste freedom the day you come home from a 15 month deployment. Thanks to everyone who supports your armed services, we are beyond graeful.

Would these soldiers support the game if it were made by Iraqis?Posted: Apr 13, 2009 12:00AM PST by nrXic
These soldiers are probably keen to tell a skewed perspective on the attack on Fallujah.
There were a few battles at Fallujah, but one striking one was the one that occurred in April 2004 (this month is the 5 year anniversary).
Because this is the 5 year anniversary there have been articles around the web about what the people remember of that time, and one photo journalist had this to say:
"One day, I think it was April 9, 2004, someone with a loudspeaker in Fallujah's main mosque said: "The Americans will open a gate and women and children can go out."
As soon as he had finished, all the women and children of Fallujah tried to find a car to leave the city but when they were in the streets, the US forces opened fire.
There's a picture that I cannot forget. An old woman with three children, I saw her on the street and took a picture of her and the children.
She said: "We don't have any men here, can anyone help us?" Many of the men from Fallujah worked in Baghdad, once the city was sealed off they could not get back to their wives and children.
So, some men helped her, I decided to film the scene and then I sat down to smoke.
Ten minutes later, an ambulance came down the road. I ran to follow the ambulance and when they opened the door, I saw the same woman and her children - but they were in pieces."
600 civilians died that month, I wonder how many will be shown dying in the videogame?
What's Next?!Posted: Apr 12, 2009 12:00AM PST by Dark_Jedi_Dave

There has been several videogames based on real wars. The reality of "war" is no different today than it was in say World War 2. If people are gonna have a fit over this game then they should have the same issue with ALL "war" games. This war doesn't even compare in the loss of human life to past wars. Slap the game with a warning on the box and don't play it if you don't like it and quit your crying.

By nature, this videogame will profit from it's sales, and therefore be seen by some as profiteering.
I think one way that Konami can rebuff this kind of criticism is by donating a percentage of the game's profits to one or several Iraq-War Veterans support organizations. In fact, I think they should do it criticism or not. It would set a positive example for the charity of game companies and help give back to those who were forever altered by serving our country.

The New Yorker ran a great article about how military doctors have been using a modified version of Full Spectrum Warrior to treat Post Tramautic Stress Disorder in Iraq veterans: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/05/19/080519fa_fact_halpern
Point being that these games can have positive impacts beyond their original intention, especially if there is an emphasis on accuracy.
I can see both sidesPosted: Apr 12, 2009 12:00AM PST by mysteriousgamer
You don't want to glamourize any war. This is no exception. By nature, this videogame will profit from it's sales, and therefore be seen by some as profiteering. It can also bring back bad memories for many of the PTSD sufferers out there. Sure, you can say they just don't have to buy it/play it, but when it's being advertised to you via TV, Movies, internet, newspapers, and magazines, it's kinda hard to avoid seeing it.
But, it's a story that needs telling and that outweighs all those points. Do we shield ourselves from history or do we learn from it? Many people learned history lessons by playing the WWII, Korean War, and Vietnam games. This will be no different. And, as many of the military folks here have claimed, these games can be used as a training tool, and a cheap one at that. It's much better on your and my tax burdens buying Xbox360s for the Marines than 1 Million+ dollar simulation programs and hardware simulators.
Why not make it?Posted: Apr 12, 2009 12:00AM PST by San_Andreas
The Roosevelt administration used every medium available to propagandize the Allied war effort in WWII... even Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny. I haven't seen SpongeBob and Patrick go to war against Saddam Hussein or bin Laden.
I guarantee you, if video games had been around during WWII, there would have been games made about every pivotal battle going on during that time... and there would have been no attempt at realism. They would been crude, stereotype-laden caricatures of the war just like Wolfenstein 3-D and the 19xx series (which was made by a Japanese company, Capcom, about a war that Japan lost, with Japan's enemy as the protagonist!) The Nazis would have been no more realistic than Bugs Bunny's famous caricature of Hitler, who was screaming nonsensical gibberish in the few German words most Americans would have understood (like "sauerkraut" and "sauerbraten" and "bratwurst").

Seriously though, Black Hawk Down and 9/11 are just two examples movies that portrait actual recent events and I don't recall people whining about those movies. But it's because it's a videogame! We really need to get away from the word "videogame" and use something more in the likes of "interactive entertainment" or something like that. This is obviously going to be an M-rated game (not that those naysayers will actually know about the ESRB ratings system, but that's another story). Anyway, I hope the game does justice to the actual events and it educates those who have no idea what war is really about, but come elections time they are the first ones to vote for war on a country that never attacked us.
On a side note: I'll never forget after watching Bowling for Columbine walking away from the theatre and listening to a couple of guys talk about the movie and how believable it was made to be. Those morons thought the movie was complete drama and not based on actual events! Yeah, that's the America we live in!

Or do you think the war ended five years ago and we've just been whistlin' Dixie?
Our Commander in Chief at the time seemed to think so:
Well, golly gee, there's Bush using a teleprompter. He must be just as "dumb" as Obama...so Bush was a Manchurian candidate too? Right Glenn Beck? Right Sgt. Hartcock?
'Accuracy' doesn't sound like proper framing at this pointPosted: Apr 12, 2009 12:00AM PST by capcommdb
Wait a minute, this is supposed to be an 'accurate representation of the Iraq War'? A battle, maybe, but not the war. 'Six Days in Fallujah' at the start of the war is only less than 1% of the entire experience. Or do you think the war ended five years ago and we've just been whistlin' Dixie? If you want an 'accurate representation' of the war, start by making a game about constant boredom interrupted by sudden moments of sheer terror when a hidden bomb or mine goes off nearby, because firefights is not it, especially in a guerilla war. I'm also not expecting we'll see much in the way of civilian casualties (a staple to any conflict), just firefights, though the director's comments on civilians and insurgents suggests some promise (though I doubt you'll play anybody but a marine until I see it). We too easily think a game is 'accurate' by visuals and equipment alone. Given the source material they are working with (including soldiers' diaries), let's hope they can put everything in context and live up to their promise, because they're in a completely unique situation and have such an empowering medium to work with.

"realistic"Posted: Apr 12, 2009 12:00AM PST by Sargemat
There was a UK TV series called Ross Kemp in Afghanistan where he went out to the frontlines with the UK troops and went out on operations and patrols with them. It just showed how far games like COD and war movies are from the real thing.
Not saying it's a bad thing those games are fun. I wonder is there much talent behind this game. I have always liked the idea of short and more realistic War games but not sure if this game will deliver on that.
Why not?Posted: Apr 11, 2009 12:00AM PST by ReD_MeNaCe
Documentaries and movies about real historic events are made all the time (Pearl Harbor), and are, ironically, only ever criticized for not being a realistic enough portrayal. Why would a game be any different?

@MulemanPosted: Apr 11, 2009 12:00AM PST by DKqwerty
Given that Osama Bin Laden had nothing to do with the Iraq war (other than a tangential justification), particularly in Fallujah, that would be highly unrealistic. Hopefuly this game will help remind people that Iraq was not related to erraticating Al Qaeda.
I hope it is realistic and goodPosted: Apr 11, 2009 12:00AM PST by steampunk
I don't find this any more disrespectful the the COD series; I felt they were also great games because they really made you feel you like were on the battlefield. They also made you realize that sheer, dumb luck also plays a factor in whether you live or die.
I have nothing but the utmost respect for the men and women who serve in our armed forces. But the COD games made me appreciate them even more, as they gave me some glimmer of what it is like to be in combat.
I Like how when any video game deals with serious and controversial subjectPosted: Apr 11, 2009 12:00AM PST by llew
it is lambasted as "glorifying" whatever it is, but we dont hear the same whiners saying the same about movies. How many movies have already been made about the war in Iraq? Granted, most of them have been flops, but still, c'mon. Games are a medium of communication-whats wrong with showing our youth the terror of war? Thats the point of those "Red Asphault" and "Scared Straight" series right?
Title?Posted: Apr 11, 2009 12:00AM PST by ray_bird
I have a friend who is a combat vet from Iraq and he's in full support of this as long as it's as factual as possible, so I'm not suprised by the support it's getting from other's in the armed forces. The loss of the main detractor's son is tragic to say the least, but if he doesn't like it, then he has the full right to not buy it.

Chryst drawing interest from Pittsburgh
Madison - Todd Graham's sudden decision on Wednesday to step down as head football coach at Pittsburgh to take the job at Arizona State has left the school scrambling.
Athletic director Steve Pederson reportedly was interested in Wisconsin offensive coordinator Paul Chryst last year before hiring Graham, and it appears that interest has been rekindled.
A source confirmed Thursday night that Pederson has Chryst on his short list of candidates.
Other reported candidates include: Penn State interim head coach Tom Bradley; Baltimore Ravens defensive back Teryl Austin, who played defensive back for the Panthers; Iowa State head coach Paul Rhoads, a former defensive coordinator at Pittsburgh.
According to sources, Chryst recently interviewed for openings at Illinois and Kansas. Tim Beckman was hired at Illinois and Charlie Weis at Kansas.
Another source said Thursday he would be surprised if Chryst had any interest in the Pittsburgh opening.
UW coach Bret Bielema and Chryst were unavailable Thursday night.
However, Bielema said on Wednesday that a school had sought to interview Chryst the week of the Big Ten title game against Michigan State.
"He would not do it until after the game," Bielema said. "He is such a man of character and integrity."
Chryst reportedly interviewed with Illinois the morning after UW defeated Michigan State, 42-39, to win the Big Ten title.

NEWARK, N.J. A grand jury has indicted David Herman, a radio personality who launched his career at WMMR-FM in Philadelphia, with attempting to transport a minor for sex.
Herman, 78, was arrested in October after allegedly trying to meet a 6-year-old girl at an airport on St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where he has a home.
The onetime local DJ had been talking online with an undercover officer acting as a Bergen County woman named Kris, authorities said in September. Herman also has a home in Airmont, N.Y.

The bill, patterned after the decade-old "Brown Jug law" in Alaska, would allow alcohol purveyors to sue anyone under age 21 for $1,000 in small claims court if the person tries to trick them into selling alcohol or allowing them into a bar illegally. »Read Full Article(63)

My Trip: Poland
Who: Alaina Rydzewski and Joe Pudlick, both of Erie
Where: Krakow and Warsaw, Poland
When: Feb. 18-25
What she said: "I have been living in Spain since September teaching English in a high school," said Alaina Rydzewski. "My boyfriend came over to visit me, and we spent a week in Poland -- four days in Krakow and three days in Warsaw.
"In Krakow, our favorite thing was visiting the Wielizcka salt mine, a huge mine that has produced salt for the last couple hundred years.
"We toured it for three hours and only saw roughly 1 percent of the entire mine. There are whole rooms made of nothing but salt, including chandeliers, statues and even a chapel where Mass is held every Sunday.
"My favorite thing about Warsaw was its history. It was almost completely destroyed during World War II and rebuilt afterward. Learning about the Warsaw uprising and how the city struggled back to life after the war was very interesting."

To the editor:
Thank you so much for writing your opinion [in last week's paper] on why home-schooled children shouldn't be allowed to play sports.
As a mother of three athletic boys that I school at home, I can tell you that this issue is discussed often at my house.
I too have very often wondered who is being hurt by allowing my children, who live in the district, to continue with home schooling and still be able to participate in public school sports.
To the editor:
It was with much delight that I read your column last week concerning home-schooled children and public school sports.
I was a four-year resident of Anderson County and my three oldest children were in the public school system during these years.
Let me go on and state from the beginning that each of my children had a positive experience within Anderson County schools.
Recently, my family went through several big changes, including a move to Mercer County (in July) and the big one — my children are now schooled at home.
To the editor:
I would like to thank Editor Ben Carlson for his latest column in The Anderson News and for giving a platform to address his question, "What will it hurt to have home-schooled students play sports in public schools."
Truly, what will it hurt?
I could sit here and argue each point that Mr. Carlson outlined in his column, however, I truly believe the bottom line is what this hurts is the pocketbook and ego of our lawmakers.
To the editor:
I didn't know how to get the word out, but I just wanted to give accolades to the Anderson County Fire Department.
I was attempting to burn a moderate pile of combustibles on Bear Creek Road and thought I had everything under control. I came in to cool off. All of a sudden, the fire was out of control and had burned something less than quarter-acre.
To the editor:
The Anderson County community has many assets to be proud of, and one of these resources is the Anderson County Adult Day Care.
I was introduced to ACADC by a long time friend, Opal Phillips. After my mother passed away, Daddy moved in with my family.
However, I needed to keep my job and did not know what Daddy would do while I was at work. I did not feel comfortable leaving him by himself.
So, remembering Opal's enthusiasm about the programs at the Senior Citizen's center, I went to investigate.
To the editor:
Two recent articles in The Anderson News prompted me to take a look at what might be going on with our local health department. The first thing I did to understand this problem was to reread the article "Conway wants health
director fired."
To the editor:
To the editor:
Attention residents of Lawrenceburg and Anderson County, we need to erect a new plaque to honor a resident of our county.
To the editor:
For the past two weeks I have been pleasantly surprised that [Anderson News editor] Ben Carlson has not written any negative editorials regarding the Anderson County Health Department.
At first I thought I had bought the wrong newspaper. Maybe I was in the wrong county? Was this the Twilight Zone?
Finally the health department was not the target of criticism by Mr. Carlson.
To the editor:
The Anderson County Family Resource and Youth Service Center would like to thank all the community partners, school staff and volunteers for their continued support of the Anderson County Family Fun Fest.
This year proved to be another success. We handed out over 800 backpacks and supplies to local students in grades preschool through 12th grade.
We also had over 40 vendors who participated by distributing information about local businesses, agencies and activities. Many also gave away free supplies or other goodies.

Soil micromorphology deals with the microscopic study of undisturbed soil and regolith samples, making use especially of thin sections and petrographic techniques. It exists as a discipline for almost 70 years. Micromorphology is used by pedologists, quaternary geologists, sedimentologists, and since two decennia intensively by archaeologists. This book provides the state of art in the field of genetic interpretation of micromorphological features, which is not restricted to the classic genetic soil horizons, but also covers processes of soil material formation and weathering, and the results of human activities and regoliths in a wider sense.
