Let me start this off by telling you that I only own a Wii at the moment. After many months of life support, The 360 has finally passed, and a PS3 is (hopefully) in my near future.
So, fanboys. What is there to say that hasn't been said already? They show up on every article, on any new bit of information, letting everyone else know that (insert system here) is the best, and why it is so. Because these fanboys come in many shapes and forms, here are some quick examples.
The "Anti-Grammar" fanboy:
Usually in all caps, these fanboys are usually the ones that get flame wars going. It is unknown whether they can actually type or not.
The "Fair & Balanced" fanboy:
"The 360 just has the best selection of games on any platform. Gears, Halo, not to mention Bioshock, (which is way better than the PS3 version) it's just the most worth my money. Oh and I have a PS3 and a Wii so I'm not a fanboy."
Note the denial at the end there. These fanboys feel that because they have all the consoles they are the experts at comparing them. If someone with all three consoles says one is the best, it must be true. They usually offer little explanation as to why the one is better.
The "Tech Spec" fanboy (a real unedited comment! ):
"In order to prove what I saying, it's a good idea to think about about all the problems that early PS3 games had when being used with 1080i HDTV sets. The PS3 games had a Native Resolution of 720p, and 1080i was not supported. However, because of the fact that the PS3 does not have a hardware upconversion processor, it was up to the TV to do the processing. Plasma HDTV sets with a native resolution of 1080i from that time didn't have the ability to "upconvert" a high definition signal."
Wtf. Did you read all that? I sure didn't. Seriously, these fanboys have to calm down. This was only a snippet of a post about 10 times as long, with no exaggeration. These fanboys feel that they can prove, through the system's technical specifications, one's superiority over the other. There are much better ways to spend one's time. I for one like to see if I can stick my fingers in between the spinning blades of a fan.
The "Angry" fanboy (an actual unedited retort to the Tech Spec above):
(1)You cant afford a 1080p television (2) You suck mens nuts (3) youre a fag (4) if you want to see framerates that chug and drop constantly in an action game, Look at Ninja Gaiden 2 on 360 (5) Ninja gaiden Sigma 2 will fix all the fawkups its 360 version had.
(6) compare the jungle foiliage in Uncharted to the foliage in Halo 3, your system sucks ass. (7) kill yourself. (8) PS3 is the only system in the world that can do 1080p native graphics. I love it when these one system dumbshits are on the outside looking in
Wow, he was certainly mad. You can tell because of the simple grammar mistakes one makes when enraged. These types of fanboys show a lot of aggression, and usually only do so when provoked (It's not hard to provoke them). In one post, they must prove that their system is better, belittle the provoker, and his system, and throw in random subjective facts about games. Note the last sentence. Not only is he better, and smarter for owning a PS3, he's finding joy in telling people about it.
Some Theories:
But why do fanboys do what they do? What could possibly drive someone to read an article about a system they hate, only to post hateful comments about it? Some will even talk shit if there's good news for them.
One reason might be jealousy. Game consoles are expensive, no matter how you put it. After the initial $200-$400 spent, there are games to get, controllers, and other random peripherals you might have to buy. After all this money spent, most people can't just go out and buy another system, so they need to justify their purchase wherever they can.
Now imagine you just got a new console, just to find out that the exclusive game you got it for is now going multiplatform. Of course you're going to come up with a list of reasons on why you spent your money the way you did. This applies to most things people buy; cars, computers, instruments, clothes, hell even food. It's just that with these other things you don't have random people on message boards tearing you down because you bought them.
This need for constant defense, coupled with flaws from each system, have led me to develop certain theories for the three major platforms. These theories offer some explanation as to how some fanboys develop.
The Nintendo Theory:
Bear with me for this one. Imagine you're a girl in a great relationship. You get treated right, presents all the time, reassurance that you are loved. Then after you haven't seen your boyfriend in a while, he comes back. He's in great shape, haircut, lost all the acne, hell, that fucker is even tan. He promises you all these great things, but doesn't deliver. He starts off by giving you a present he gave you already (Twilight princess) but you're okay with that. But then he stops calling. You get bullshit reasons as to why he can't see you, and then you find out that he's been cheating on you. (Casual players!)
"Don't worry baby," he says, "I got enough love for both of you."
It's not true however. You get tricked into staying with great presents (Mario Galaxy! Smash Bros!), but it's not like it used to be. While you're getting hardly any attention, the other girl is being showered with gifts she didn't even know she wanted. (Wii fit) All you wanted was some commitment, for it to go back to how it used to be (SNES, N64, shit, even gamecube).
That's all Nintendo fanboys really want. They can't even talk shit about other systems, even though everyone in the world talks shit on theirs (It's gotten out of hand really). They used to have something great, and they really do love Nintendo, but Nintendo is much too focused on his new girl (so to speak) to really give a shit.
The 360 Theory:
Now put yourself in a completely different situation. You're a guy and just met the girl of your dreams. She's got a great body, smart as hell, not to mention she's into you. Then you find out she's absolutely great in bed, and after that first night you're in complete ecstasy.
Then the morning comes around, and you find out that she's a narcoleptic. That's right, even though she's perfect; she falls asleep while you're with her, 70% of the time. Some guys can deal with this, and will continue on trying (Guys on your 5th or 6th Xbox, I'm talking to you). For most guys however, after the first time, that's that. They move on, and many times are angered by the promises of greatness, let down by simple hardware failure.
A lot of the time they'll go for her nerdier sister. Which brings me to my next theory:
The PS3 Theory:
The PS3 is that really awkward nerdy girl who's always hiding the fact that she's actually gorgeous. When you first met her, she didn't seem like all that (ha, ha). Her sister was much more outgoing, and not to mention a year older. Although she was cute, there wasn't really anything special about her, and she also had a rep for being expensive.
Still, her sister was a narcoleptic, and the more time you spent with her, the more potential you saw. This girl could be the hottest girl in the city! If only she tried. Unfortunately, the only times you see said potential is rare, once or twice a year (Uncharted, Killzone), but you always see her buying such sexy clothes (God of war 3, Heavy Rain, Motion Control) that you figure she has to realize it soon enough. Plus, her Internet is free (Sorry, didn't know how to relate that).
Remember, these are all just personal theories, so if you have any of you own, feel free to let me know. And to the fanboys, know that I'm not trying to pick a fight with you. I'm trying to understand your plight.
Real gamers don't hate on any system. They just wish they could afford them all.

As revealed by Marketing Week last month, Jacobs will design a limited edition collection of bottles and cans and appear in other marketing activity.
Such activity includes his take on the iconic "Diet Coke Hunk" in an online video where he reveals his torso in a photo booth in front of a group of office workers.
Diet Coke is marking its 30th anniversary with year-long marketing activity reminiscing on previous ads from 1980s through to present day as it looks to retain its "lifestyle brand" status in the face of 21st century pressures.
It kicked off the activity in January with a modern take on its "zeitgeist" 1994 "Diet Coke Hunk" ad.

Anatomy of a hit game: Monument Valley creators share downloads, sales and other data
Ustwo Games, the developer behind the hit Monument Valley, has just given some insight on how well the game is doing in the Google Play Store, Amazon Appstore and the iOS App Store. Monument Valley made our list as one of the best designed games of 2014, as well as Google's list of 102 most popular games of 2014, and continues to stay on the charts as one of the top paid games in the Play Store.
If you can remember back a few weeks ago, Ustwo Games tweeted some disheartening piracy statistics regarding the Google Play Store, only to clarify the stats in a report released a few days later. Taking the piracy numbers into consideration, the statistics the developers talk about are apparent in the numbers shown below. Sales on iOS are miles ahead of the Google Play Store and Amazon Appstore, though the game was an iOS exclusive for months before coming to Android.
So, are you curious to see what exactly it takes to make it to some of the best game lists of the year? Check out the image below for some more information:
Have you downloaded the game? How are you liking it? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
- Arrrroz
Only a very small part of its revenue comes from android sadly. No wonder why a lot of developers prioratize ios.
- Roberto Virga
Maybe android users are wiser, and unwilling to spend $4 on a game offering 30 minutes tops of entertainment.
- Marty
Faulty thinking. A game of this quality is highly valued. Ever spend $50 on a PS4 or XBOX One game? Sure, the console variety lasts longer, but you payed $50 for it.
- BChoi
As someone who doesn't even play console games and would never spend 50 on a game I finally decided that momument valley might be worth paying the developers for but I was very disappointed. Like mentioned I got 40 mins tops out of the game for $4… Asphalt and Godus is free to play and I probably play it more often and enjoy it more than momument valley. The more disappointing part was that it was another $3 add on for additional levels which I decided was not worth it… I feel like the more appropriate pricing would've been along the lines of $3 for the game and $1 for expansion. Even then, considering it was free on Amazon at a point I feel like most people would've been tempted to simply pirate it. TL;DR bought the game with high hopes, was left wishing I had just pirated it.
- Rick
As someone who doesn't even drive I would never spend $$$ on a car I finally decided that a Huffy bicycle might be worth paying the bike company for but I was very disappointed. Like mentioned I got 1 mile tops before I ran out of breath out of a vehicle for $… Walking and Crawling is free and I probably do those more often and enjoy it more than using a bike. The more disappointing part was it was another $ to add on a rear reflector which I decided was not worth it. I feel like the more appropriate pricing would've been along the lines of less for the bike and less for the reflector. Even then, considering some people have gotten free bikes before at some point in history I feel like most people would've been tempted to simply steal it. TL;DR bought a bicycle with high hopes, was left wishing I just broke into a bicycle shop and stole it.
- BChoi
Closer analogy would be I paid for a civic for the price of a lambo
Can't really compare Asphalt to Monument, each has a different business model and I'm sure that asphalt has by far way more downloads and they make more money than Monument. But not all business in the App world are the same.
- Roberto Virga
If you consider that a $50 console game offers at least a dozen hours of gameplay, and moreover has usually some replayability value (new difficulty modes, achievements, etc.), 30 mins of gameplay and NO replayability for $4 looks like an an abysmally bad deal.
- Laggypop
It doesn't offer only 30 minutes of gameplay.
At even 30 minutes of non-repetitive, original, and top-quality content, is better then 30 years of clicking the same buttons and boxes, and "add coins" IAP's.
- Roberto Virga
You're right, in my experience, having bought it and played it, it offers much less than 30 minutes of (extremely easy) gameplay, and no replayability at all. Had it been released under the new Google Play 2-hour refund policy, its android revenue would have been exactly $0. And it was smart for the developer to release the new version as an IAP, since there is no refund grace period for IAPs.
My point is: this is not a representative sample of mobile games (which in general offer a LOT more entertainment value for their money), so its sales data tells me nothing.
- Laggypop
- TheNewGuy
Just because you didn't like it doesn't mean no one did.. It would do perfectly well even with the 2hour refund policy.. Don't think many people would be cheap enough to play it and then get a refund. Those chepos would just pirate it..
- JosephHindy
Did you go to McDonald's, spend $4 on a Big Mac? How long did that last, 5 minutes? Seems like Monument Valley is a better deal for $4 to me…
people pay more than that to watch a movie (entertainment) for roughly 2 hrs so I wouldn't call it "wiser" i would call it either poor, stingy or selfish.
- Marty
The sad part of pirates killing the system. Human nature. If they can do it, they will do it. One thing that can never, ever happen is people being honorable and not taking advantage of something…sadly.
Yep exactly
- hahmed330
How about if people were able to buy apps using their top up or mobile credit in nearly every country country and provided by nearly every service provider? Also play store needs to have a simplified version readers for hundreds of other languages.
- Jaime A.G.
Windows Phone store has been doing the same and their sales boosted to 300% (and that's with only a few countries and operators supported). If android does the same, we'll see it boost too.
- Hammad R. Ahmad
Actually the thing is, in many third world countries, the banking system is not so advanced to allow online payments. I myself downloaded this game from Amazon because it was free for a day and I have to say, it is amazing. If a sufficient system existed for me to buy it, I would have. I lucked out and got it for free, making it my 96th item to have gotton free from Amazon.
- MaudDib
Or maybe they need to look into their marketing with android. I never heard or saw anything about the game the Amazon app of the day. I explore the play store often and I check a lot of blogs and it never got my attention. With the awards from ios, it seems like they were giving it a lot of play.
Piracy, while big, can't be that big of a factor here.
- SomeRandomGuy
You obviously don't seem to visit check out good blogs then.. Monument Valley has been covered by almost each and every android blog out there..
Piracy is the main factor here.. Just try this double total number of ios + amazon installs (should take care of installs on multiple devices).. Then subtract from total installs.. And compare to howmany bought it from play store..
But the point is that piracy is unlikely to affect the final revenue anyway.. Cos the chepos who are pirating games are unlikely to pay for it even if there was no way to pirate it..
- mrochester
It's not so much piracy, it's that Android users tend to be the sort of people who don't buy stuff like this.
- SomeRandomGuy
Err.. Then how exactly are you explaining the other installs?? Trust me piracy is very rampant in the Android world.. Cos it is very easy to pirate in Android..
- JosephHindy
SomeRandomGuy is right. We Android bloggers have been throwing this at people for going on 8 months now. It was on Android Authority's (my) best designed games of the year AND best games of the year. We wrote about the release, the DLC, and mentioned it dozens of other times in videos and articles. So has everyone else. It's also on Google's top 102 from 2014, frequently in the top paid category, and frequently recommended in the Play Store.
People just don't want to buy it.
agreed I don't think it has to do with piracy only but and not to define the user of both platforms but "most" iOS user don't sweat it when it comes to paying for an app that costs. .99 to 2.99 where as "most" Android users do and you can clearly see that in the numbers shown above by monument. We also have to keep in mind that Android has a bigger WAY bigger market share compared to iOS but that also brings out the point of how iOS user brought more revenue to that developer. So bottom line I think that yes part of it is piracy but also part of it is that Android users do not purchase apps.
- JosephHindy
Yes and instead of purchasing apps, they just steal it. lol, that's the point.
I partially agree I don't think it has to do with piracy only but and not to define the user of both platforms but "most" iOS user don't sweat it when it comes to paying for an app that costs. .99 to 2.99 where as "most" Android users do and you can clearly see that in the numbers shown above by monument.

So bottom line I think that yes part of it is piracy but also part of it is that Android users do not purchase apps.
- MasterMuffin
I don't know which was a bigger surprise, the fact that they got almost 150 thousand bucks in one day or that their development costs were over $1000000, but those are big numbers o.O
- crutchcorn
And one sweet sweet game
I was really surprised by how much they spent on developers, that shows how much they care about the app and it's quality.
- kamiii161
Dailymotion has announced the launch of its video game streaming platform: Dailymotion Games .
- Will S.
These figures are interesting but its not something we don't know already. Android is awesome but allowing people to easily download apps from outside Google Play/Amazon Appstore does have its downsides and the sad thing is this will affect Android users the most…
- alien_roger
I'm wondering if there are any iOS users, and how do they feel about this game. Was it worth for them? I mean do they regret that they bought this app? According to official feedbacks in store ppl are happy with purchases, even if you find some complains about "too short" app still got 4.7 which is not so easy to get.

text: Guys, I know this is going to sound somewhat funny, but this is a serious question. I have been trying to teach my wife to shoot, and it has been, let's say, difficult. I use the Isosceles stance when I shoot, and that's how I taught her. I just like the consistency it brings. However, it if very uncomfortable for her. See, my wife is very large breasted, and when she brings her weapon up and extends her arms, "the girls" always seem to be in the way. I have tried switching her to more of a Weaver stance, but she say's it's not very comfortable for her. Any of our female shooters here have any advice for her? Or and husbands/boyfriends who's significant other has this same issue? I'm looking for advice.

Four motos in two nights… that's what a doubleheader round of AMA Supercross racing consisted of in 1985.
Here's a look back at the Seattle Supercross doubleheader, held February 8-9 in the old Kingdome Cold temperatures kept the crowd down on Friday night, but some 30,00 showed up for Saturday's races. It may have been cold, but nothing could cool off Honda's Ron Lechien, the Californian riding his CR250 to a doubleheader sweep. Yamaha's Broc Glover finished second both nights on his factory YZ250 with Rick Johnson and Johnny O'Mara splitting third-place finishes over the two nights.

Ricky Johnson and David Bailey try to keep warm on a cold night in Seattle.
Ron Lechien was unstoppable in the Kingdome, the factory Honda rider winning both nights of racing.
Rick Johnson at speed. RJ finished third overall on the first night, but slipped to seventh on night two.
Johnny O'Mara gets down to business on his Honda. The O'Show finished third on the second night of action in Seattle.

Suzuki's Scott Burnworth negotiates a Kingdome run.
125cc World Champion Michele Rinaldi tried to qualify in Seattle, but failed to do so on both nights.

Interview: Russell Swan talks 'Survivor: Philippines'
Disheartened after his second time, Russell explains the compulsion to return
I got on the phone with "Survivor: Philippines" bootee Russell Swan expecting to talking about all of the usual exit interview things.
While I knew the frustration that he'd obviously felt having his torch snuffed in Wednesday's episode, I still figured I'd talk with Russell about the mistake of taking a leadership role after vowing he wouldn't, about the decisions to vote out Zane and Angie and Roxy and whether any move could have reversed his tribe's ill fortune and about the last day at camp being lied to be both Denise and Malcolm.
As you can tell from Russell's first response to my first question, that wasn't the kind of interview he was really prepared to do, so we went off in a very different direction.
I've done a lot of these interviews, but this one is, to me, one of the best insights into the mind of a "Survivor" player, particularly the mind of a repeat "Survivor" player. The last answer, especially in light of Russell's post-"Survivor" condition, is definitely the most enlightening.
Check out the full interview...
HitFix: Everything you said and did on Wednesday's episode was in the heat of a very specific moment. You've had a couple months to reflect and readjust. How do you view your second "Survivor" experience from a distance?
Russell Swan: Well, let me correct you on one thing: The reflection that you're saying that I did actually hasn't happened, because when I left the game, in real time, it sucked. Bad. And so I got home and I knew I needed to be kinda whole and present and functional and so I completely pushed this whole ridiculous experience out of my mind and basically pretended like it never happened. Every piece of paper, even the luggage that I carried my clothes in, I basically just put it away and pretended like it never happened. It wasn't until they actually announced the cast and I thought, "Oh gosh. It's really there. I'm gonna have to deal with this." And I just was in denial until it happened again and I'm reliving all of it.
So I am just in a pattern of, "Look, I don't know what happened out there, dude. This sucks," and you've gotta be functional in other parts of your life and try to put this in perspective the best you can. I will confess to you, as I have the others, that it had a profound negative effect on me right now, but that's just right now. In the fullness of time, I will do exactly what you said or speculated that I had done and I will get a chance to reflect and I will be able to give these pearls of wisdom like I did after Samoa. I left there and I thought it was a negative and come to find out there were actually a lot of great things I learned. But just in terms where we are in the continuum now, I'm just not there yet. So I can't even begin to answer that question.
HitFix: How long did it take you after Samoa to be able to step back and get perspective on that experience?
Russell: That's a good question. I would say it was about three months after "The Eyes" episode, as I say, because before then, I didn't even realize that that episode existed. Jeff Probst had even said, "Dude. You're gonna see that you were not good out there" and I kept thinking, "This dude is lying through his teeth." And I saw the episode and then so the initial thing is just shock like, "Wait a minute. Did I just almost die? That can't be!" Because I almost died. Of course, my wife freaked out. So it took the better part of three months. I would say by the time we had gotten to the finale, I was able to intellectualize a lot about what happened out there, rather than having that initial emotional response: The shock, the disappointment, the anger. So I'm more on the, not so "shocked," but definitely more on the disappointment and anger and humiliation front right now.
HitFix: But you've been watching the episodes this season?
Russell: Absolutely.
HitFix: Was there any consideration to not doing that?
Russell: Oh yeah. Yeah. Yes. Yeah, I did. Thank the Lord for my wife. Wives, they say they're the best thing ever invented and that's definitely true. She could tell I was upset when I first got back. She was like, "OK. Please don't tell me that you're gonna have another medical moment" and I was like, "No." The first time, I didn't tell her anything. This time I kinda told her everything. I said, "I don't wanna be involved. I don't even think anything is worth it. I'm not gonna go. I'm not gonna have any of these interviews. They can just..." do a few things that I won't repeat in this phone conversation. She basically said, "No. That's cowardly. You went into this with your eyes wide open that this was in the realm of possibility, so you've gotta face this." And I have. I understand from an intellectual standpoint that this is a TV show, this is a reality TV show, and that's all just a game, but there is this component that I'm not an actor. That is me watching me, watching unsuccess and problems and trouble. And so I would be completely untethered from reality, I think, if I said that this doesn't impact upon me. It does. It's not comfortable. It's difficult. But, like I said, in the fullness of time, I'm pretty sure I'll get to the point where, like in Samoa, I will be able to put this in perspective and have a much different conversation with you and others about what the hell happened out there, because I'm gonna be working through that through my synapses myself to try to figure out what do I have to say about it. People already have plenty to say about it themselves, so...
HitFix: What was your wife's reaction at the end of Wednesday's episode when the credits rolled?
Russell: It's not so much my wife's reaction that was interesting, but I think what's more interesting was my daughter's, because I think that's more telling and that's why I have faith that there's gonna be some gems that'll come out of this. Actually, before the episode aired. I told my daughter that I was gonna be voted off and she asked me "Why?" And it wasn't that she asked me, but the way she asked, almost like, "How can this happen to you, daddy? How is anybody gonna vote you off?" And I thought to myself and was like, "We lose the next challenge and daddy gets voted off" and she started to cry. And I don't want to get into all the conversation I had with her, because a lot of it was personal and private, but suffice it to say that one of the things that was really interesting is we had this conversation about not everybody liking you... and it was just a very interesting thing that this experience helped us to bond in a way and me to raise an issue about the fact that sometimes there's gonna be people out there that are gonna have plenty to say about you and you're gonna be voted off your own island at some points in your life. So my wife just basically said, "OK. It is what it is." She got up and said, "I'm taking the baby upstairs and I'll see you when you come up." And that was pretty much it.
HitFix: We've established that you haven't had that reflective moment about the season, but what new information has watching the season given you on what happened out there? Are there things that you hadn't realized or recognized when you were in the heat of the moment?
Russell: Ummm... I have to honestly say nothing much. There's only a tribe of six, so there wasn't any big maneuverings or stuff like that, just because we were just trying to win a damn challenge. It was no great mystery to me that returning players were going to be targeted, that I was going to be targeted specifically, that Denise and Malcolm seemed to work well together and, having played this before, I know what that means. So there was nothing new. What I did see is what I remembered, including not being able to find the Idol, challenges that just never seemed to go our way and lots of rain.
HitFix: How much do you think the rain really was to blame in terms of what it did to your group psyche and whatnot?
Russell: Yeah. That's a good question, because it's all linked into what happens when you begin to lose challenges and all of these different things and the cumulative, synergistic effects of all of these different things: Losing the raft, the rain, losing a challenge or two, being down in numbers. There's no question in my mind that that played some role, because it always does. It wasn't as much of a problem with me, because I knew that it could be miserable, but as I watching some of these newer folks, who did the best they could under the circumstances, I knew it was making them miserable, because it is miserable. So it was definitely a factor.
HitFix: Does everything that happened seem inevitable, then? Would it have made a difference if you'd voted Angie out first? If you'd kept Zane around? If you'd kept Roxy around? When you look back, is there anything that you could have done differently that would have made a difference?
Russell: Man... If you look on CBS' website, Artis says something along these lines about us making a mistaking having voted Zane out first, because the other tribes still had their three men and we got to see that play out in this challenge this time, although there's still just a tremendous amount of luck. There's an element of luck that comes into it that you can't just completely ignore, but it is interesting. It's speculative, at best, to think it would be different, but maybe. I wonder about that. But then that pits folks against folks and you knows? You keep Zane and he has a horrible day the next day? You keep me and I have a horrible day? It's just hard to tell. That's the beauty of this game. You can look on paper and think you understand what's going on up one side and down the other and at the end of the day it doesn't matter, because there are just too many unknowns.
HitFix: You sound down on the game still. Can you foresee any circumstance in which you can imagine yourself coming out of this, having your period of reflection and deciding in three months or six months or two years that you might want to do this again?
Russell: Yes.
HitFix: Why is that?
Russell: It's weird and it's interesting to answer that question. The first time I played, I did this whole "This is Reality" kinda like "Survivor" fundraising circuit that you can do, Chitlin' circuit, where you go to this fundraiser and that fundraiser and you get to see everybody and do these things. That's where you get to meet a lot of these folks and it's interesting, because I've met a lot of them and at the time I was thinking, "Man, this show sucked and I can't believe that it almost killed me." And so everyone I asked, no matter what their experience was -- some of them were winners and some of them were voted off first -- every last one of them said they'd do it again in heartbeat. And I thought, "These people are crazy! You already won, why do you want to go back and be dirty again? You already won! You risk your legacy! And you? You sucked the first time and got voted off first!" You kinda think, "Wow, these people are crazy." And then, just like you said, three months down the road, I dreamed, hoped, prayed for the phone to ring. I don't know. I think it's almost like birthing babies. You know? Why would a woman go through that more than once? I saw my wife have our child and I thought, "My gosh. I'm surprised there are any children on this planet." You know? And there are women who do it more than once. What's up with that? If you were to ask me now, "OK, if the phone rings tomorrow, would you do it?" Hell to the no. But I can definitely foresee a time where I get into the same game-amnesia about how much it sucked and how painful I was and how angry I was and I'd say, just like I said: Let's line it up. I'm ready to go.

Taking inspiration from one of the defining movements of the 20th century, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has presented a selection of Ghost and Phantom family cars that celebrate the Art Deco era.
The highly bespoke Phantom Series II Saloon, Phantom Series II Drophead Coupé and Ghost models were unveiled at the Paris Motor Show 2012, in homage to the 1925 Paris Exhibition or Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes that gave the movement its name.
The elegant simplicity of Ghost is presented in two-tone, Jubilee Silver atop Cobalto Blue, while the interior features intricately designed and crafted marquetry in front and rear.
A Phantom Series II Drophead Coupé, furnished in resplendent mother of pearl onlays, gracefully completes the show line-up.
"In Paris we have elegantly captured the essence of one of the great periods in 20th century design," said Torsten Müller-Ötvös, Chief Executive Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.
"These Art Deco-inspired motor cars stand as a testament to the breadth of the Rolls-Royce bespoke offering, reinforcing the marque's position as the world's leading manufacturer of luxury goods."
An exclusive collection of Bespoke Phantom Series II Saloon and Ghost family cars, inspired by the Art Deco cars at Paris, will be made available to Rolls-Royce clients.

I am still working on ways of fitting a GSI 4 branch exhaust manifold to an ecotec (cheaply) and think I have just about got an easyish way of doing it.
Before I go much further does anyone have any Idea what the gains in bhp should be from doing so?
Interestingly, the port spacings are just the same on the ecotec head to the c20xe but the stud centers are totally different ;(
From the pic you can see that the kidney shaped head ports also have another hole which is meant for the egr system (not used on my c18xe) so I intend to ignore these and assume the ports are sized to the engine and these if blanked by the manifold and gasket from the GSI mod will cause no ill effects.
The lambda probe hole on the manifold is M16, anyone know the thread pitch to save me measuring as I have to make an adaptor for the manifold I am using (it doesnt have one)

Legal Aid Agency spends £93m on cases not heard in court
Topics: Criminal justice,Legal aid and access to justice,Government & politics
The Legal Aid Agency (LAA) has spent more than £93m funding defence counsel in cases that did not go to trial, the National Audit Office has found.
According to the public spending watchdog's Efficiency in the criminal justice system report, published today, two-thirds of cases did not progress as planned despite case management improving since 2010-11.
The proportion of trials that go ahead as planned in the magistrates' court increased from 34% in the year ending September 2011 to 39% in the year ending September 2015. The proportion of Crown court cases that collapsed on the day of the trial fell from 30% to 24%.
However, in 2014-15 the LAA funded defence counsel 'to the tune of £93.3m' to represent defendants whose cases never went to trial, excluding guilty pleas. The Crown Prosecution Service spent £21.5m preparing cases that were not heard in court.
The report states that police officers in London who spend a day waiting to give evidence cost £139 a day. Expert witnesses, whose legal aid hourly rates vary between £40-£200, may still be paid even if a case does not progress as planned.
Although fewer cases were entering the criminal justice system, the NAO backs up the lord chief justice's assertion that cases have become more complex.
The number of sexual offences cases in the Crown court has risen by 12% in the past five years, from 9,178 in 2010-11 to 10,309 in 2014-15. The CPS 'expects a further rise' in 2015-16. This includes 'historic' sex abuse and child sex abuse cases, involving vulnerable victims and witnesses.
In magistrates' courts, the number of domestic violence cases, which require 'significant victim support', has increased.
Prosecutions for other serious offences are also increasing, including terrorism, organised crime, drugs and fraud. 'These cases can involve complex evidence, and trials with multiple defendants,' the report states.
In the Crown court, backlogs increased by 34% between March 2013 and September 2015. The waiting time for a hearing has increased from 99 days to 134 days since September 2013.
The report also highlights 'significant regional variation' in performance.
A victim of crime in North Wales has a seven in 10 chance that the trial will go ahead at Crown court on the day it is scheduled. This drops to a two in 10 chance in Greater Manchester.
In 2014-15, the length of time between the offence and completion of the case ranged from 243 days in Durham to 418 days in Sussex.
Citing examples of inefficiencies when a case comes to court, the report states that court listing was the 'single most common reason' that a case had to be rescheduled last year, accounting for 21% of ineffective trials in the Crown court and 30% in the magistrates' court.
In some cases, technology and facilities 'may not function as intended'. During one of its case study visits, the NAO witnessed a trial where 'the police had so little faith in the court's equipment that they told us they hired their own at a cost of £500 a day'.
Concluding that the criminal justice system is 'not currently delivering value for money', the report recommends that the Criminal Justice Board agree on what 'good' looks like for the system as a whole.
With 'no common view of what success looks like', the NAO says organisations 'may not act in the best interests of the whole system'.
Readers' comments (6)
So the NAO says that there is "no common view of what success looks like"
Sober reflection makes us think how far backwards the nation has travelled, in terms of denying the ordinary citizen access to justice.Is it really news anymore that the decline of UK justice is accelerating?
The LAA , an executive agency of the MOJ , the ministry itself with a title having Orwellian undertones,performs ever more inefficiently. So?
The real issue here is the slow dismantling of the rule of law in the
UK in all its manifestations.
Online probate for instance is due to become live in 2017 and the MOJ is considering the abolition of practising fee income for the Law Society.
The fundamentals of our legal system are being slowly removed,without proper public debate,and indeed without proper consideration of the long term consequences for society.
The real tragedy is that there are insufficient numbers amongst us to care anymore.
LA being spent on counsel to defeat matters before they go to trial and crack is good business but gives the Red Top press the excuse to bleat on about fat cat lawyers and so on.
That we see 1/4 of CC trials collapsing on the first day is a damning indictment of the CPS.
Hang on anon, 76% don't collapse, which is 76% of those contentious enough to get to trial rather than be a guilty plea. Additionally the largest reason for cases not going ahead is stated to be court listing issues, doesn't sound like too damning an indictment of CPS.
The major issue with the CJS is that the State and its agents and Agencies fails to consult with "the defence community" aka Solicitors in private practice about reform of the system. The Defence Community were excluded by statute from LCJBs. Reluctantly some set up sub-committees to which "the Defence" were invited.
The reason for this exclusion is the prejudice directed towards "the Defence" based upon the notion that all we are interested in is the interests of defendants and the fee. Apparently the Prosecution and Courts hold the higher moral high ground. In any event, we are told, that the LAA will represent our interests.
There is no-one in the Courts or at CPS or in the Police or in Probation who has defined "efficiency" so that when reforms are proposed or discussed they can be assessed against criteria to assure that what is proposed will deliver efficiency.
Reform is haphazard.
It is based upon what one or maybe two parts of the system have decided or agreed suits them-and therefore must be efficient.
There are very simple issues-disclosure of evidence is late; listing of cases is in a mess.
Only when the great and the good stop telling "the Defence Community" what is going to happen and only when the much needed reform is discussed with "the Defence Community" and agreed with us will real, meaningful and effective reform be achieved.
To date much of that which is promoted as efficiency is in fact done in hope that efficiency will be achieved.
Only when Government recognises that the CJS needs proper resources to deliver justice to victims of crime and to defendants will the problems with the CJS be sorted.
It is, ultimately, a matter of resources and only when Judges, DPP etc state this in public will Government do anything about it.
Until then we shall have half-baked "efficiency" reforms which are the closest thing to useless that you are ever likely to see-because there is no agreed vision of what "efficient" actually looks like.
So much I could say but I will focus on just three points:
1. "24% of CC cases collapsed on the first day". This speaks volumes for the lack of pre-trial preparation by the prosecution and the ineffectiveness PCMHs, PTPHs and FCMHs. If all of these were working properly the decision to not go ahead could and should be made early enough to stop the wasted time and costs of everyone arriving on the first day just to go away again.
2. The spending on cases that don't go to trial is "CPS £21.5M" and "Defence Counsel £93.3m". It seems to me that if the CPS was allowed to spend a little more the 'wasted' defence costs could be significantly reduced.
3. 'Experts still get paid .....' I have explored the whole question of Expert Fees in an article in the Solicitors Journal at http://www.solicitorsjournal.com/comment/expert-witnesses-are-not-getting-fair-deal-legal-aid I hope the NAO and LAA take notice.
Have your say
