I have been addicted to comics since I was able to get my hands on them, I remember keeping my allowance to go buy as many comics as possible from Al Manara Book Shop in Salmiya in the early 90s. Every XMen or Spiderman comic that I could find or whatever they had, I would even read the comics from Dark Horse comics back in the day, I just loved comics and couldn't get enough of them. Now 20 years later things have change, but my love for comics has only grown, and who can't love these blockbuster movies based on these comics, but I still love the comics. Thanks to the iPad we can easily get our hands on comics as they are released through DC, Marvel, Comixology, and Transformers. Instantly in your hands and reading everything as it happens, it just doesn't get better then this. Then there is the aspect of meeting and getting in touch with these amazing artists who work on these comics. After roaming DeviantArt, twitter, and instagram the past few years I have managed to talk to a lot of these amazing artists and purchase artwork directly from them as well as commission work from them when they are available. Some of these artists work for IDW, Disney, Marvel, or DC in their animated studios or comic studios, and some of them are independent. All the images here are artwork I commissioned from these amazingly talented people. I am thankful for all these online resources that I am able to get in touch with these amazing people and get my hands on the art work of things that I love.
These are some of the Artist that I have purchased from and some that I have asked for Commissions.

Honestly they are all amazing people and very easy to talk to, you can get your work from them into their busy schedules. Sometimes their work is done quick and you get it in a week and sometimes you have to wait a few months but the wait is always worth it. Be sure to check out there work.
Silver Hawks! Man I loved that show back in the day and that drawing looks awesome! Hope you get a print to hang on your wall.
@Mathai – Hey man! These I already have! All of them! hahaha! Loved the Silverhawks back in the day!
Gotta love the internet for that reason! and that Voltron and Grendizer artwork is super-ultra-awesome!!
@Kal – Exactly! Getting people connected is something only the web could do at this level! Thanks! I love it, its my favorite piece! Made by an extremely talented artist!

You will not do any better than the Project 1 Xpression.. period. For $449.00 you get a killer turn table that should, as you put it, "blow your skirt up". This comes complete with all you need - no more additional costs to worry about.
The MM5 just isn't in the same ballpark.
How about in the same factory? Music Hall turntables are made from parts available in the factory in the Czech Republic that makes Pro-Ject turntables and share motors, tonearms, etc. The differences between their turntables in similar price levels are in parts selection, with the Music Hall turntables generally getting slightly better parts and costing slightly more as a result. Both Pro-Ject and MMF series turntables are very favorably reviewed. I have a friend who has an MMF5 and I would have been happy with that as an entry level turntable. Both the Pro-Ject and MMF5 would benefit from cartridge upgrades, but then they would end up costing a lot more.Originally posted by Zero

Dosa Diner is closed
I drove from Brooklyn tonight to check it out, only to find it shuttered, w/a hand-written sign that said "closed for renovations". No re-opening date. We were so sad and had a total dosa craving. After 10 or 15 minutes of wandering, unable to find a South Indian restaurant, we wound up at Jackson Diner, which does have dosas. And they were decent.
Haven't been to JH in a couple weeks, but maybe someone else knows whether they're open yet, or when / if they will. I totally miss the rava dosa with chili paneer. Any suggestions for other dosas in the area? We went to dimple a while ago and were underwhelmed, but there must be somewhere else worth trying.

Controller reduces motor electricity costs
Three-phase and single-phase Motor Efficiency Controllers for industrial and home appliance use reduce electricity costs for motors that run at a constant speed. The company estimates E-Save Technology has the potential to save $1.7 billion in electricity a year in industrial applications in the U.S. alone.
Power Efficiency Corporation's E-Save Technology is said to reduce the amount of
electricity used by electric motors that are at times lightly loaded and operate at a constant speed. The company estimates E-Save Technology has the potential to save $1.7 billion in electricity a year in industrial applications in the U.S. alone.
The company has developed two products based on E-Save Technology. One is a three-phase Motor Efficiency Controller (MEC), which improves the efficiency of motors in escalators, elevators, granulators, saws, stamping presses, conveyors, crushers, and other industrial applications. The second is a single-phase MEC targeted at small motors in clothes washers and dryers, refrigerators, and other appliances and light commercial equipment. Both MECs can be adopted by OEMs and other large volume sales channels.
Steven Strasser, Power Efficiency chairman and CEO, says that an announcement will be forthcoming soon regarding the signing of Power Efficiency's first contract with a major OEM for its digital MEC to be installed on new equipment as well as retrofits.
Strasser says the agreement was signed after extensive lab and field testing and product development work undertaken by both parties. Additional OEM agreements are also underway, according to the company.

Even in wartime, anniversaries are significant, which explains why the U.S. Navy launched the USS Bowfin, an attack submarine, on Dec. 7, 1942, one year after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and America's entry into World War II.
Nicknamed "the Pearl Harbor avenger," the sub and its crews are credited with nine wartime patrols, during which they sank between 16 and 44 enemy vessels. (The claims vary.) Since 1981, the vessel -- part of what the Navy called its "silent service" -- has welcomed 7 million visitors to its now-permanent home at Pearl Harbor on Oahu.

In the second grade it was decided that I should join the Brownies, a pre-Girl Scout program that was guaranteed to provide hours of fun, socialization, and life skills too numerous to count.
Yeah, right. Like I bought that for a minute. I knew it was a ploy to try to get me to play with other girls my age and get me out of Mom's hair. The problem was two-fold; I liked going to the newspaper office with Mom and "editing" her column, and, basically, I didn't like hanging around with kids my own age, especially the girls.
There, I said it! I was a loner. Still am. But if I had to hang out with other kids, boys were preferable because at that age they hadn't got a clue that they were being manipulated, so I could be the boss. From an early age I was known a Bossy Liscomb, although there was a certain kid who called me Liscomb P…comb. You know who you were and I have a long memory. Just sayin'- and your name rhymed with baloney.
The Brownies troop for our neighborhood met at There were crafts involving Popsicle sticks and glitter. There was Kool-Aid in a punch bowl on a folding table, along with healthy snacks like those little packages of processed cheese-products and crackers with the flat red thing to spread the fake cheese on the crackers with. I didn't drink the Kool-Aid. The so-called uniform was a vile brown that did nothing for my already washed-out complexion and clashed horribly with my red correctional shoes that were allegedly correcting my allegedly flat feet.
I really wasn't into the crafts and I knew nothing I did would ever earn me one of their stinking patches. I evidently didn't hide my displeasure well, because later in life I was told that one of the troop leaders reported to my mother that I was casting baleful glances at everyone around me.
Since I didn't drink the Kool-Aid, I think we can safely assume (even if it does make an a** out of you and me) that it was either the glitter, the glue used to make Popsicle stick crafts or the uniform that caused my eyes to swell up like my eyelids had been stuffed with cotton balls. I was allergic to something, and this time it wasn't school. It wasn't the "cheez 'n' crackers" either because I ate them all the time at home too.
Therefore, albeit with some pitiful wailing on my part (but moooooooommmm it's booorrringggg) I didn't last long. Mom probably was mad at buying the uniform I hardly wore a la the ice skates, the ballet shoes, the swim fins and so forth. I'd like to think that she was really secretly happy to have me back in my rightful place, by her side at the Maple St. office of the Danvers Herald.
I'd also like to think that if she's looking in on me from time to time she's happy that I write for Danvers Patch, and itching to edit my columns.
In closing, I'd like to add that my good friend Kimm tells me that she was kicked out of the Brownies for mischievous behavior unbecoming of a Brownie. My cousin Carla tells me the same excuse was given for kicking her out of Rainbow Girls. It's rather a pity that I didn't hang in there long enough to join the club of the blacklisted myself; I bet more of those so-called baleful glances would have done the trick.

Staff Report
The Tribune-Star
One man was arrested and another hospitalized following two separate high-speed incidents on U.S. 36 in Parke County.
At 2:20 a.m. Saturday, Parke County Sheriff's deputies attempted to stop a silver car on U.S. 36 near Bellmore, according to a news release. The driver fled west, reaching speeds of more than 100 miles per hour during the pursuit, the release said.
The vehicle crashed near the intersection of U.S. 36 and Seip Road, about a mile west of Bellmore. Police report that the driver, 29-year-old Shawn Smith of Ladoga, was not injured in the crash, even though the vehicle rolled at least one time and traveled more than 100 yards off the road into a ravine.
While Smith was being taken into custody, a second vehicle driven by 54-year-old Christopher Matthis of Rockville, approached the scene at a high rate of speed.
Police report that the Matthis vehicle left the road and struck a guardrail, with flying debris from that crash striking a police vehicle that was parked 200 feet from the crash site. The police vehicle was not damaged.
Matthis suffered severe head injuries in the crash, police report, and was transported to an Indianapolis hospital by LifeLine medical helicopter after being cut from his vehicle.
The double-crash investigation was complicated by a car fire that erupted in the vehicle crashed by Smith. His car was destroyed by the fire.
Smith was arrested for resisting law enforcement and for driving while intoxicated. He was booked into the Parke County Jail with bail set at $10,000.
Police report that alcohol and speed were factors in both crashes.
Assisting with the incident were the Rockville police and fire departments, Bellmore Fire Department and Parke County EMS.

The teen faces two counts of attempted robbery and aggravated assault, and possession of a firearm. He is accused of shooting a 64-year-old man in the head during the holdup. The victim, incredibly, was treated and released from the hospital. There was a second victim involved in the incident, but was not injured. Wilkerson appeared in Recorder's Court Thursday afternoon. He remains behind bars at this time on a $400,000 bond.

State lawmakers recently shared their thoughts on legislation dealing with guns, definitions of a stream and the housekeeping challenges of Republicans assuming control in both houses of legislature.
The State Legislative Chamber Coffee, sponsored by the Blount County Chamber of Commerce, took place on March 21. State Sen. Doug Overbey and State Rep. Joe McCord and State Rep. Robert Ramsey spoke with Chamber members and answered questions.
Overbey said every year the General Assembly has a different theme to it. This year's General Assembly has had three segments of thought that dominated conversations in the halls of the legislature. "When we convened on Jan. 13, we thought everything was worked out as far as the leadership in both the House and the Senate, and we had a surprise in the House of Representatives," he said.
Rep. Jason Mumpower of Bristol was set to assume Speaker of the House duties until Republican Rep. Kent Williams rallied Democrats and won the speaker seat by one vote.
Overbey said Phase II was how the federal economic stimulus plan would affect the state's budget, which at the beginning of the session was not announced. "There was lots of discussion about how we would get our projects advanced and funded," he said. "Then the program was announced and discussion was what strings will be attached."
Overbey said that on March 23, lawmakers would move into the third phase after Gov. Bredesen presents his budget for dealing with the current year's revenue shortfall, which is going to be around $1 billion. Lawmakers also were to begin discussing the infusion of about $4.5 billion from the economic recovery plan.
McCord said this session so far in the House has been about change and transition. Democrats had been leaders for 20 years. "They've had a firm grip on the leadership the past 10 years," he said.
Ramsey said that to him as a rookie lawmaker, having the guidance of two veterans has been helpful. "I find it a great pleasure to work with Sen. Overbey and Rep. McCord, who have been a lot of help."
Dale Huddleston asked McCord to explain a bill he has pending to explain the designation of what a stream is
McCord said lawmakers are trying to get fact and science in place and not emotion. "I have received emails from constituents calling me unchristian for filling these bills. We have an attachment to the land," he said. "It is such a difficult issue to understand. We have four classes of streams. It's so overburdensome to define these."
McCord said the same field officer can tell you two different things on the same stream. "Environmental opponents to this bill say we're changing structure and allowing for pollution of streams and that's absolutely not the intention. We are simply trying to clarify," he said. "At the end of day, it's not the goal of anyone to do anything harmful to the water of the State of Tennessee."
Regarding gun control, McCord said several different bills are working through the State House now. One would allow someone with a gun permit to carry a gun into a restaurant and another would allow those with permits to carry weapons in state parks.
"These bills had been held up under previous leadership. These bills were always killed in subcommittee. We had 170-something gun bills filed. There was such a glut because they had never gotten out of subcommittee. We narrowed it to subjects we had been dealing with for years," he said.
Lawmakers picked state parks legislation for one effort. "The reason we picked that was because federal law allows handgun permits in federal parks," he said.
Regarding the guns in restaurant legislation, McCord said individuals wouldn't be allowed to carry a gun into a restaurant, even if they have a gun permit, if alcohol is served or if the property owner has posted they don't want firearms on premises.
"You can not consume alcohol and have a weapon. We put in the alcohol ban. Regardless of the situation, there's a total ban, and you cannot have handgun. If at any time it's age-restricted, you cannot, even if you're not consuming," he said.
Any property owner can post their property. "We tried to come up with the most reasonable solution to problem," he said. "Most of the other versions took away an owners right to post property and had no curfew. The idea was to get it out there and let the bill be voted on."
Commissioner Bob Proffitt said data has shown over and over again stricter gun laws work. "I can't imagine moving toward more lenient gun laws," he said.
McCord said that what is happening is a result of years of no open discussion because the bills were automatically killed. "There was pent up frustration over the years, and this is the result of that," he said.
Regarding legislation banning mountain top removal mining over 2,000 feet, Overbey said the state hasn't had mountain top removal since the Office of Surface Mining took over mining in 1977.
"Like you I'm very concerned with what happened prior to 1977 that left 2,000 acres of exposed high wall from Knoxville to Miami if you put it together," he said.
Overbey said he couldn't have supported the bill that was considered last year. "The bill last year would've eliminated all mining in the state," he said. "Passage of the bill would have stopped all coal mining in Tennessee and all reclamation efforts in Tennessee. If you'd like to leave exposed highwall and never reclaim it, pass this bill."
Regarding federal economic stimulus money, Ramsey said federal officials have set guidelines. "They've sent the message money will be available and will have to be spent quickly," he said. "It's essentially our money, and we don't want it going to another state."

Download iOS 7 GM For iPhone, iPad And iPod touch | Redmond PieSep 10 2013 at 12:24 PM • ∞
By Paul Morris | September 11th, 2013 Advertisements
iOS 7 GM download links have just gone live on the Apple's dev site . Those enrolled on the iOS Developer Program now have immediate access to what is essentially the finished iOS 7 build, and can start installing the firmware on their provisioned iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices through the usual well publicized download channels .
It should be common knowledge by now that the Gold Master version of Apple's mobile firmware is always pretty much identical to the version of the software that will be rolled out to the public when the new iPhones start shipping . This particular variant of iOS 7 represents Apple's last attempt at fixing any show-stopping bugs and issues that have been reported by beta-testing developers through the Bug Reporting mechanisms. It has also given the Cupertino based company the chance to apply any final polish to the dramatically revamped interface and fine tune the new animations .
As mentioned above, developers who are enrolled to build native iOS applications are able to get their hands on the Gold Master version right now . Download iOS 7 GM firmware file directly through the dedicated Member Center website using the registered Apple ID . Users with provisioned devices can then perform a manual device restore through iTunes to install the GM version of iOS 7 onto their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch .
For those who are currently on the last released beta of iOS 7, it won't do any good to head over to the Software Update section of the Settings.app on device . As with previous years the Gold Master seed of this firmware refresh will not be offered as an over-the-air (OTA) update for existing beta users . It will therefore be necessary to grab the firmware file directly from the Member Center method above in preparation for a custom iTunes install .
The various beta releases of iOS 7 have not been available for all iOS powered devices in the wild and the same goes for the GM version . The iPhone 5, iPhone 4S and iPhone 4 are the only smartphone devices compatible with the firmware . iOS 7 will also run on the second, third and fourth-generation iPad as well as the iPad mini and the fifth-generation iPod touch . Those with older hardware devices can expect to have some iOS 7 features missing such as Camera filters, Siri and AirDrop .

JOPLIN, Mo. —
A winter storm thundered its way across the Joplin area early Thursday morning, dropping an icy mixture of freezing rain, sleet and snow that was 2 to 3 inches deep.
But surprisingly, advance warnings about the storm, along with school, university and business closings, kept traffic problems to a minimum on local and area roads.
"We've had about two dozen slide-offs in Jasper and Newton counties," said Sgt. Mike Watson, with the Missouri State Highway Patrol. "Of those, only five or six involved crash reports. There were no serious crashes (as of Thursday afternoon)."
Watson said it appeared to him that people were staying off the roads unless it was necessary to be out. Cpl. Dan Haskins, who heads the traffic division of the Joplin Police Department, observed much the same thing.
"We haven't seen that many accidents today," Haskins said. "It's surprising. The biggest thing, I think, was that there was so much warning on this. Most people stayed home. Knock on wood — we've been pretty fortunate."
Spokesmen for two of Joplin's wrecker services said they had assisted only a handful of motorists on Thursday.
Both Watson and Haskins said they were concerned about refreezing conditions overnight, and that drivers this morning might feel overconfident when they venture out.
"Traction is still an issue and could be worse with overnight freezing," Haskins said.
Helping the motorists who did venture out Thursday were snow-removal crews with the city of Joplin and the Missouri Department of Transportation.
"We had 13 trucks out yesterday (Wednesday) preparing for the arrival of the storm," said David Hertzberg, the city's public works director. "They were out sanding and pre-treating the streets ahead of the storm coming in. They kept up with it really well when the main storm rolled in about 5 a.m."
Hertzberg said it takes a little over four hours for the snow-removal crews to cover Joplin's priority routes. By late Thursday, he said, those routes were in good shape.
Mike Middleton, head of the snow-removal crews for MoDOT, said the Joplin district's 21 trucks were out in force before the storm hit.
"This was a very interesting storm," he said. "We had some snow then sleet, which provided relatively good traction. Our drivers saw very few run-offs, which is great."
By Thursday afternoon, major improvement in road conditions was observed on Range Line Road and Interstate 44 in the Joplin area, he said.
"The routes are starting to open," he said. "We're gaining some ground now."
But elsewhere in Missouri and Kansas, the story was quite different. Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback and Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon declared states of emergency in their states because of the storm. Central areas of both states received up to a foot or more of snow.
Residents of both states were urged to check on elderly neighbors who might be in need of assistance.
School districts, including Joplin, Webb City, Carl Junction, Carthage, Neosho and Pittsburg, Kan., were closed Thursday. For many students, Thursday marked the first snow day of the school year.
Classes at Missouri Southern State University, Pittsburg State University and all Crowder College locations were canceled. General Educational Development testing, which was to have taken place in the Mills Anderson Justice Center at MSSU, has been rescheduled for 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 28, in the same location.
All schools in Southeast Kansas were closed Thursday.
By midmorning, Cole Jameson, a fourth-grader at Meadowlark Elementary, had dressed in warm hunting gear to go outside and explore his family's frozen yard in rural Pittsburg.
"It's an adventure that childhood memories are made of," said his mother, Meredith Jameson, who teaches first grade at Meadowlark.
It was the first snow day the district has taken this school year.
"The day off gives me the extra time to address things that I never seem to get to on my to-do list," Jameson said.
The Pittsburg Parks and Recreation Department canceled youth and senior citizen programs for Thursday and today, so Jason Huffman, technical director at Memorial Auditorium, took the day off to be home in Arma, Kan., with his 10-year-old son, Xavier. They had big plans.
"I made pancakes for breakfast; then it's going to be a 'Dr. Who' marathon," Huffman said. "Maybe some Lego building. At some point, I will have to clean the cars off. It will be a nice day overall, as long as I don't go out."
For Pam Thompson, of rural Crawford County, the snow day brought out the urge to bake for her family.
"I'm baking a ham and potatoes for lunch, and making some apple turnovers for the kids," she said. "Then I'll work on my teacher work sample for my education degree. Probably top off the day by playing some game with the kids on the Xbox. Or crocheting."
Frontenac teacher Robin Craig and her family left for Salina on Wednesday — a day earlier than planned — to beat the approaching storm. Her son, Tanner Craig, a senior at Frontenac High School, qualified for the Class 4A state wrestling tournament to be held there today and Saturday.
"There's about a foot of snow on the ground this morning, and it's still coming down," Robin Craig said Thursday morning by phone.
STAFF WRITERS Andra Bryan Stefanoni and Emily Younker contributed to this report.
Road assistance
PEOPLE WHO MUST DRIVE are being urged to check MO.gov for road conditions before departing. Motorists may dial the Missouri State Highway Patrol's emergency line — *55 from a cellphone — if they encounter an accident while driving.
IN KANSAS, motorists who find themselves in need of assistance may dial *47 to reach the Kansas Highway Patrol.

Under the Lights
Michael Muldoon
---- — Who knew?
The most under-reported local sports fact has to concern veteran Andover golf standout Colin Ahern. I've probably read a hundred stories on him and not one mentioned he was a great hockey player at Providence College. He was a captain and was named All-ECAC and still is No. 16 all-time in scoring (61-86—147).
Helpful coach
A huge pet peeve of mine is schools and coaches having zero records. Luckily, former Andover girls soccer coach Dick Loschi is an exception to the rule.
Yes, Tuesday officially was the first time Haverhill girls soccer ever beat Andover. Loschi said the rivalry began in 1994 and the Hillies never beat Andover when he was coaching from 1994-05. Tribune records show they hadn't won from 2006-12 either.
Our records go back through the 2000 season and Andover was 14-0-1 in that span and had outscored the Hillies 59-2.
Memory loss
Here's my favorite story on why you can't believe any undocumented stats. A former area Hall of Fame coach was telling me his star player was the first he ever had average 20 points a game. I wrote it then soon sheepishly discovered he did have a previous 20-point scorer. The year before!
Betcha didn't know
New North Andover basketball coach Paul Tanglis and new Methuen coach Anthony Faradie were starters together at Framingham State a decade ago.
Cakes are baking
UTL birthday wishes go out to Central Catholic soccer-basketball star Courtney Walsh (18 today), Bucknell point guard Katherine Harris of Derry (turns 21 Tuesday), Lawrence wrestling coach Rob Niceforo (turns 40 Wednesday), BU hoop captain Rashidat Agboola of Methuen (turns 21 Wednesday), Monmouth QB Ben Onett of Plaistow (turns 20 Wednesday) and "Mr. Salem" Charlie Samataro (turns 78 Friday).
Super Bowl raffle
How cool is this? The winner of the Super Bowl trip raffle to benefit Andover native Dick Kelley's fight against ALS will be announced live on national TV. It will be during the broadcast of the Oct. 12 BC-Clemson football game. Tickets still can be purchased at dkfightsals.com.
Kraft's Grandson
Belmont Hill junior quarterback Harry Kraft, the son of Patriots president Jonathan Kraft and grandson of owner Bob, threw for 250 yards and four TDs last Saturday. That helped ease the pain of a loss the week before on his 104-yard pick-6 in overtime!
Hire the coach
Seton Hall, which went just 3-15 last year in the Big East, has always been a tough place to recruit. So how did coach Kevin Willard earn commitments from Isaiah Whitehead and Angel Delgado, the 14th and 44th-ranked seniors nationally, respectively? Easy. The Pirates' two new assistant coaches are their old high school coaches.

The gamecube has the potential to be right there with x-box graphiocs wise and alot smoother, but x-box has more potential for grapics but less smooth.
But anyway, I got Resident Evil 4 the day it came out and havnt been able to stop playing it, even when im not playing it, I picture myself shooting the guys heads off with the Snipe.

|#48 Subject: Godly game Posted: 01/14/2005 10:00:26
This is the best game that will ever come out for GC. I just beat it yesterday and got an A rating, which was the hardest thing i have ever done. I have beaten ever RE game and this takes the cake. As far as the dog helping you out, he comes because you let him out of the bear trap in the begining of the game. But only once, sorry there is no more help from the dog although it would be nice to have some help ever once in awhile. Since it usually 20 on 1 all the time.
|#49 Subject: HAHA Posted: 01/14/2005 12:37:20
LOL i shot the dog in the bear trap, lol and he ran off.
|#50 Subject: crap..... Posted: 01/14/2005 22:34:16
if i didnt actually press a next to the dog, and i just shot the bear trap open, will he still help me later?
|#51 Subject: Lousy Camera View Posted: 01/16/2005 20:43:25
No doubt the game is great I am having difficulties in seeing. I hate the camera view. Leon's head and upperbody blocks the view in front. When releasing the C stick on the controller to move the camera view around Leon, the camera goes back to its original position. This is really annoying because the reason of moving the camera is to look around Leon and let the camera sit still. The game doesn't even have a 360 degrees camera view. If this game is designed with camera views like Prince Of Persia 2. This game would have been the best ever to come out. I am just totally disappointed. Unable to see where my enemies are coming especially when 10 or more enemies are pursuing you at one time from every direction.
|#52 Subject: You are an idiot... Posted: 01/17/2005 01:15:19
Sorry to flame you man, but you deserve it. The view is like that for a reason, to give you a sense of imersiveness and a feeling of terror.
You see what Leon sees, and due to that fact, you are immersed in the role of Leon.
You are suppose to feel terror when you can hear something coming up behind you but you cant see it.
This is survival horror. If you don't like it, or don't understand it, get the fcuk out.
|#53 Subject: Lacked Of Vibration Posted: 01/17/2005 14:36:02
Ok, I've got used to the camera angle. This game is awesome man!!! Nevertheless, the game lacked vibration on the controller. All the explosions and boss fights doesn't have any vibration at all to let the gamer feel the horror, excitement and terror. There is no realistic feels when facing oversized monsters. I am not feeling the game to the max. It could have been done perfectly if capcom only realizes that they have missed out the most important aspect of all: The Vibration on the controller. That is why all 3 consoles have vibrators for this main purpose. It could have been perfect!!! Why???
|#54 Subject: RE4 ROCKED MY WORLD! Posted: 01/18/2005 16:19:25
I actually played the game for the first time at a gamestore (GameCrazy).
MAN, that game is unbelieveable! Im definitely going to buy it.
What is the best/favorite weapon on there? (I love the Mine gun)
|#55 Subject: i never noticed! Posted: 01/18/2005 16:31:58
i never noticed there was no vibration lol.....its ironic too because i conciously unplugged my wavebird and hooked up a normal controller for this game so i could feel the vibrations, but i never really noticed its absense.......oh well no game is PERFECT, and at least now i have an excuse to use my wavebird with no regrets ;
|#56 Subject: vibration Posted: 01/18/2005 18:02:47

Thank you for including the article "What makes compulsive gamblers continue?" in the April issue of The Hoosier United Methodists Together. There are three clarifications that I wish to make:
For greater success in recovery, the combined approach of both treatment and Gamblers Anonymous is recommended.
Magical thinking for the gambler is indicated when chasing one's losses becomes part of the motivation to gamble. This development in thought often begins to occur during the Losing Phase of disordered gambling prior to the Desperation Phase and still later Phase of Hopelessness.
Gambling Recovery Ministries does not include treatment. Information and referral sharing is an important part of our outreach; and individuals are very grateful when they realize that there is real hope and help for them to begin the steps toward recovery, with the information and the encouragement that we give to them.
There are clinicians who are specifically trained and certified in gambling addiction counseling and, also, some very fine treatment programs in our country and Canada. Again, including treatment, GA, and Gam-Anon for the families is the recommended approach. Our GRM Web site provides links to professional organizations and services of help to problem gamblers and their loved ones. The Web site is www.grmumc.org. I also can be reached at 812-926-1052.

In reading the April 2006 Together, "Bishop, Foundations thanks ." (on page 3), I noticed that Chandler UMC in Chandler, Ind., was not mentioned. We have had three volunteer groups go to Mississippi, using our van to transport people and supplies to the Gulfport area. Two of the volunteers were even able to convince a music store in our area to provide a piano for one of the churches and two of our ladies made a special trip down to deliver it. The last trip was made the last week of March by our youth group and their leaders using the church van and pulling a trailer with more supplies.

My name is Gene Gilbreath. My father, nicknamed "Pete," was a mental patient confined in institutions for 47 years. He was Rip Van Winkle II, twice over. Mental patients today do not have to be gone that long to be forgotten. The streets and jails are full of them. In fact, in spite of our acclaimed social outreach, mental health is not one of our favorite emphases.
Every day is mental health day for patients and families.
Despite Jesus concern for the disturbed and regardless that one out of five of us will be affected by some kind of mental problem in our lifetime, we act as if we would just as soon they remained out of sight and mind.
It is strange why we never have had the idea of the "lost" applying to the mind and body as well as the soul.

OAKLAND, CA - FEBRUARY 15: Monta Ellis #8 of the Golden State Warriors scrambles for a loose ball against Marco Belinelli #8 of the New Orleans Hornets at Oracle Arena on February 15, 2011 in Oakland, California. NOTE TO USER: User expressly acknowledges and agrees that, by downloading and or using this photograph, User is consenting to the terms and conditions of the Getty Images License Agreement.

Monta Ellis scored 21 points and Dorell Wright added 16 to help the Golden State Warriors overcome an early 15-point deficit to beat the New Orleans Hornets 102-89 on Tuesday night.
David Lee also scored 16 points and Stephen Curry had 14 and eight assists for the Warriors, who have won six of eight games. Five of those wins have come against teams with winning records as Golden State heads into its final game before the All-Star break Wednesday night in Utah playing its best basketball of the season.
All-Star point guard Chris Paul was held scoreless for the final 39 minutes for the Hornets, who are limping toward the All-Star break without injured center Emeka Okafor. New Orleans has lost eight of 10 heading into the final game before the break at Portland on Wednesday night.
The Warriors turned a 15-point first-quarter deficit into a 12-point lead heading into the fourth quarter. Golden State began the turnaround with little-used backup guards Charlie Bell and Jeremy Lin in the game in the second quarter with Ellis and Curry sitting with two fouls apiece.
Vladimir Radmanovic made two 3-pointers to start the comeback and then Ellis came back in and capped a 15-3 run with a 3-pointer that gave the Warriors their first lead at 47-46. Golden State increased the advantage to 58-53 at the half and then started to pull away in the third quarter.
Curry hit back-to-back 3-pointers as part of a 19-6 run that gave Golden State a 79-67 on a 3-pointer from Wright. Curry added another 3-pointer late in the quarter to make it 83-71 heading into the fourth.
A three-point play by Lee and breakaway dunk by Reggie Williams helped increase the lead to 91-72 early in the fourth and the Warriors cruised from there.
The turnaround was possible as much for Golden State's usual prowess on long-range shots as it was the defense against Paul, who missed his final eight shots. Paul finished with 11 points and 10 assists.
Former Warrior Marco Belinelli and David West each scored 15 points to lead the Hornets.
This game was emblematic of the problems the Hornets have had since leaving here Jan. 26 with a 10-game winning streak. New Orleans has won just twice in 10 games since then with coach Monty Williams saying the downfall started late in that final win in the streak.
Williams hoped a return to Oracle Arena would get his team back to playing the way it did during that January run. It looked as though his wish would come true at the start of the game as the Hornets made 11 of their first 13 shots from the field and all nine free throws as they broke out to a 32-17 late in the first quarter.
Paul was in the middle of it all by hitting his first four shots and handing out five assists, including the pass that set up a 3-pointer by Belinelli that capped the 9-0 run to give New Orleans a 15-point lead.

Assassin's Creed II
Architects were men in charge of overseeing and devising building renovations. They would commonly receive a commission from citizens, and would work with them to draft plans, before overseeing the renovations themselves.
Mario AuditoreEdit
- "Our architects explain that lowering the towers might actually help our defenses because we can purchase more powerful weaponry. A huge undertaking, but something I will consider in the future."
- ―Mario Auditore speaking with the city architects.[src]
While under the rule of Mario Auditore, the architects of Monteriggioni mostly worked on upgrading and repairing the defenses of the city, including its fortress walls and towers.[1]
Additionally, in 1454, architects aided Mario in the research of a mysterious artifact that was said to have been hidden under the city. To this end, an architect went over a layout of the city's buildings with Mario, subsequently discussing the possibility of hiding places beneath each.[1]
Ezio AuditoreEdit
- "Ser Mario hired me to deal with this mess, but I'm an architetto, not a miracle worker."
- ―The Villa Auditore architect.[src]
Upon Ezio Auditore da Firenze's arrival in Monteriggioni in 1476, the city and its Villa had fallen into disrepair. An architect had been hired to oversee renovations, though Mario commonly focused more time and funding on the city's defense than on its upkeep.[2]
This architect based himself in the study of the Villa, looking over a scale model of the town, which was mounted on a large table. Through him, Ezio was able to make decisions on how best to upgrade the town.[2]
All buildings, structures and guilds that were rebuilt and renovated in Monteriggioni generated income, and increased the number of visitors to the city.[2]
Unlike Monteriggioni, architects could be found in abundance in Rome, and were willing to work on a variety of commissions, such as shop buildings, aqueducts, and other structures throughout the city.[3]
In this regard, architects would rebuild the shops of art merchants, doctors, tailors, blacksmiths, banks and stables, as well as the entrances to the city's tunnel system, broken aqueducts and guild buildings.[3]
Though he became known as a mysterious benefactor aiding in the renovation of Rome, Ezio only directly conversed with architects in four locations, the Tiber Island headquarters, the Rosa in Fiore, the Caserma di Alviano and La Volpe Addormentata.[3]
Ezio also interacted with Borgia architects in charge of Leonardo da Vinci's war machines; often interrogating them on the location of the machine plans and prototypes.[3]
Villa AuditoreEdit
- Ezio: Buon Giorno. (Good day.) Is there something wrong?
- Architect: Ser Mario hired me to deal with this mess, but I'm an architetto (architect), not a miracle worker. Without money, I can't fix any of these buildings.
- Ezio: And if someone brought you money?
- Architect: Then we'd be in business! You must be Ser Ezio. Am I right?
- Ezio: Uncle! I like this architetto (architect).
- Mario: He gets very observant when he can smell money!
- Architect: If you want to fix up this town I'm going to need it. I have a price list here for new shops and renovations. Just bring me gold, make a choice and I'll begin at once. If you build a shop, you (as the landlord) can purchase goods there at lower rates. If you invest more money in the shop, you get even greater discount. As for renovations, well... you'll be bringing the town and villa back to life. As Ser Mario tells me, that was very important to your great-great-grandfather. Plus, when you buy shops and renovations, you'll be increasing the number of people who visit, causing your income to increase! So, lets take a look, shall we?
Assassin's GuildEdit
- Architect: Ser Ezio. I represent the combined resources of Bartolomeo d'Alviano, Claudia Auditore and La Volpe. Through my associates spread across the city you can channel your florins to any part of the underground you desire. You may have seen notices posted around Roma which allow you to purchase buildings. Income from your new tenants will be deposited with bookkeepers, as well as additional profit from renovations. Bookkeepers can be found throughout the city.
- Ezio: Molto Bene (Very Good.)

GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas - The Grand Prairie AirHogs have named John Bilbow the team's new general manager. Bilbow comes to the AirHogs after three successful years as the owner/operator of two local restaurants. Before that, he served as the Fort Worth Cats' vice president and general manager from 2007-2009.
"I'm excited to join the AirHogs organization," said Bilbow. "I've thought highly of the AirHogs from the very first year they were in existence back in 2008. Grand Prairie is an outstanding city that has so many great businesses and organizations. I've always been impressed by the people who live and work in Grand Prairie and how much pride they have in their community. My goal is to get out and meet as many AirHogs fans as I possibly can in the coming weeks. Minor league baseball is so special and unique. Our goal is to bring another championship to Grand Prairie in the near future.
"I was lucky enough to be a part of three championships with the Cats from 2005-2007. The fans were such a key ingredient to the success of the team. We want to make QuikTrip Park the place to be in the summer and a destination place for families. It's all about offering affordable family entertainment as well as a great product on the field."
Bilbow, 42, joined the Fort Worth Cats in 2002 when LaGrave Field was re-built. He served in various capacities including vice president of sales/marketing and assistant general manager before being tabbed as the Cats' VP/GM in 2007. He oversaw all aspects of the Cats' front office operations during the season and off-season. Bilbow has lived in the Dallas-Fort Worth area for 20 years.
Prior to his stint with the Cats, Bilbow worked in commercial real estate and computer sales. He is a graduate of Oklahoma State University with a degree in marketing.
Bilbow and his wife Kendall reside in Arlington with their children Jylian, Mikey, Ivy and Patrick. He has also been involved in the Miracle League in the metroplex, whose baseball league gives children with disabilities the opportunity to play baseball. Bilbow is also on the Board of Directors at Lovers Lane Academy for the Deaf.

Washington's China Debate Is About Caricature, Not Reality
Experts disagree over China's intentions amid growing influence.
Recent posts on the National Interest's website offer divergent yet refreshingly sober-minded assessments of China's growing assertiveness in Asia. Bruce Gilley, an assistant professor of political science at Portland State University, argues that a red tide of nationalism within the increasingly modern Chinese military, to say nothing of the country's netroots, makes some kind of conflict with the West likely. Gilley expects Xi Jinping, the senior apparatchik who is expected to become China's president within the next few years, will side with the military in response to challenges at home and abroad and is not prone to conciliation with the U.S. or Asia.
Michael D. Swaine offers a dissenting view. While conceding the fact of Beijing's military buildup and its implicit challenge to U.S. dominance in Asia, he contests the notion that China seeks global hegemony. He also dismisses outright the suggestion, projected most vigorously by militarists like Aaron Friedberg, that Washington should match Chinese military modernization bullet for bullet. The solution to Beijing's increasingly menacing claims on disputed Asian sea lanes, he argues, lies not through confrontation but multilateral engagement between China, its neighbors, and the U.S.
[Read about the danger of China myopia.]
Both Gilley and Swaine were at least partially vindicated by an article in the September 8 edition of the Financial Times that delivered much-needed insight and nuance to the cosmology of Chinese militarism. It answered the question, heard with growing frequency both in Asia and the West, whether Beijing's generals are now making foreign policy with a qualified "no." While allowing how the People's Liberation Army has broadened its core mission from defending the coastline to guarding economic interests beyond its shores, the article also revealed the fault lines that divides the military from rival agencies such as China's coast guard, its maritime surveillance units, and the ministries of agriculture and transport--all of which have competing stakes in the business of defining and defending Beijing's red lines. While the hawkish coast guard has the most to gain from its demands for a broad interpretation of maritime sovereignty, for example, the country's foreign policy agencies favor engagement "because it could strengthen China's credentials as a responsible stakeholder in the international system and eventually facilitate dispute resolutions through negotiation."
Compare such leavened reportage with a China policy debate in Washington that is freighted with partisan and reactionary prattle. Just this week, the Senate passed a bill that would punish Beijing for undervaluing its currency to preserve its export competitiveness allegedly at the expense of American jobs. The link between an undervalued renminbi and U.S. unemployment is dubious, though this mattered little to legislators from both sides of the aisle who wanted to generate some populist currency of their own as national elections loom. Also this week, the Center for a New American Security, a Washington think tank, issued a report defending the Pentagon against prospective budget cuts lest they compromise readiness "as the military [becomes] increasingly focused on the Asia-Pacific region"—in other words, China. A week earlier, Buck McKeon, the Republican chairman of the House Armed Services Committee and one of the Pentagon's most loyal advocates in Congress, declared in a speech that the Chinese are "drunk with economic power" and seek to press their advantage over a financially stricken United States.
"For the first time in their history," fulminated McKeon, "Beijing believes they [sic] can achieve military parity with the United States. They are building stealth fighters and submarines. Their navy has grown larger than our own. They are sending warships into the territorial waters of our allies."
[Read why a U.S. war with China might be inevitable.]
To paraphrase H.L. Mencken, McKeon's rant at least had the great good fortune of being unintelligible. China, as Washington's largest creditor, has more to lose from America's economic crisis than any other single government, and its 9,000-mile long coastline is surveilled in the air and at sea by elements of the U.S. Navy, still the largest maritime force ever. In Washington, however, caricature too often prevails over reality as a foundation for policymaking, which is why so many of the nation's wars over the last six decades have ended either inconclusively or in disaster.

DEP Asks Marcellus Shale Drillers to Hold Fracking Wastewater
The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Conservation has ask Marcellus shale to stop sending wastewater containing inorganic compounds to public wastewater plants. The public plants are not designed to deal with certain inorganics such as bromide, which can cause health conerns wehn mixed with chlorine. Marcellus Shale will be forced to use private wastewater facilities in order to process its contaminated water. However, with the private facilities struggling to keep up with demand, the industry is being urged to move toward on-site wellhead treatment to treat their water. The new system recycles fracking water, producing a clean distillate and 3 different commercial salt products.
It is common sense to me that a company should be sending water containing inorganics to public wastewater facilities. It is not only an environmental concern but a financial one as well. The public ends up shouldering the burden of Marcellus' byproducts. They should know better, and be replenishing the water that they contaminated themselves. Moreover, it costs a lot of money to transport water; it seems as if this "wellhead treatment" method would have been in use years ago.

Google's Android Market is getting off to a bit of a rough start, I found as I tested out some apps for T-Mobile's G1, the first Android handset. Not only is there a slim selection of programs (around 50 as of this writing), many of those apps crashed like mad, belched out errors, or, in a worst-case scenario, forced me to reboot my test phone. This sure isn't Apple's protected-little-sandbox App Store: this is the wild, wild world of open source.
Second, and more important, many apps have no Quit or Exit button. It's unclear whether these apps ever actually quit, or whether the processes continue to run in the background, thereby potentially slowing down your phone. The G1 clearly needs either a process manager, or someone to slap down a rule that every app must integrate a quit option.
That said, I found 10 apps that add features, fun, and/or power to the G1. All of these programs are free; paid programs will debut next year.
Behold, our list of the best Android apps so far: Bonsai Blast
