Has anyone else played LoL (funny). I only started playing yesterday but it looks pretty awesome. The gameplay is smooth, a nice variety of characters, and it's free. Does anyone have any tips on how to effectively use spells in battle though. I can never seem to stay alive when I use them. Feel free to talk about all things LoL here. Bye bye

I have been playing, for about 8 months and it's been a blast. I just recently came back to it after a 2 and a half month break. I have been itching for getting into DOTA 2. (Sent my application for getting into the beta 2 days ago, hoping to get in.)
So what's everyone's favorite Champion/s?
Err there's a dedicated forum for LoL
Anywho, I started playing it recently at after a coworker insisted I learn it to play with him. I hated it when I tried it a long time ago but I actually like it now. It isn't nearly as stressful as SC2 so after a busy day I feel like I can actually play it without being completely exhausted. So far I've kinda stuck to the champ called Annie, the creepy little girl with the demonic teddy bear. Once you get the speed upgrades she is rather microable like a stalker from SC2 so I like that. It's fun and is free so I can't complain. I only play with friends so I don't have to deal with the awful community much which from everything I've seen is a good thing.
I'm actually just getting back into it after an 8-month hiatus. Used to play pretty regularly with a group of friends (voice chat with people you know makes all the difference), but most of them don't play anymore so...not as enjoyable as it used to be.
Sona's a lot better now, which is sweet.

I used to play a lot with people over voice chat.
But there business model always bothered me to no end. So one day I uninstalled and I haven't looked back. The game is not bad, i just can't enjoy the game by the way they set it up, it makes them a ton of money so doubt they will ever change.
I'll stick with the other mobas. It is a great stepping stone though, it got me back into mobas after playing dota years back.
Talon is awesome.
@menaceforever: This post is a point pointless, to be honest.
http://www.giantbomb.com/league-of-legends/61-24024/any-tips-for-a-new-person-to-the-game/35-559644/? has already seemed to become the Tips thread. And like someone else said, there's the official forums for "all things LoL", it's obvious people will talk about it here in the League sub-forum :P
About spells though (usually called Abilities in game, which can help you figure out what some tooltips do when they mention Abilities). Depending on the champion you're using, you won't be able to really spam out your spells until you're past Level 10 or so (in-game, NOT your Summoner level). It's a bit lame instead of throwing out death every few seconds, but it usually helps ensure a VERY important part of the same: use your regular auto-attacks (called Basic Attacks in-game) to kill the minions. If you get the last hit on the minion (instead of your sides minions getting the kill) you will get gold.
As far as actual fights against other champions, it depends on the one you're playing. Some champions use their spells more often than others. There's over 100 champions in the same right now, so you may want to be more specific.

An apparatus for formation of a course of fibrous materials on a perforated forming wire mesh with an underlying suction box and an overlying fiber distribution box, in which a pair of rotating, perforated drum cylinders are provided for the delivery of a stream of air-fluidised fiber, which is then flung out down on to the wire mesh by the drawing-down of air by the suction box from the upper end of the distribution box, cover plates (18) is arranged at a distance below the upper level of the drum cylinders, which plates substantially shield-off the free flow of air down through the vertical spaces between the drums themselves and between the drums and the adjacent side walls of the distribution box.
1. An apparatus for dry-distributing fibre materials in the formation of a course of fibre material on a moving forming wire mesh, comprising:
a suction box disposed under said wire mesh,
a forming head disposed above the wire mesh in the form of an elongated box extending transversely to the wire mesh, and which has an air inlet at the top and is open down towards the wire mesh, and which contains a pair of rotating, perforated drums from which at least one of their ends a stream of air-fluidised fibre is supplied, and
cover plate parts (18) disposed in an upper space of the forming head, in an area at a level between a horizontal diametrical plane of the perforated drums and an upper horizontal tangential plane of the perforated drums, for substantial shielding-off of the down-flow of inlet air to the slot areas respectively between the drums and between the drums and the adjacent walls of the box, thereby increasing the concentration of the air supply directly down through the drums.
The present invention relates to an apparatus for dry-distributing of fibrous materials for the formation of a course of fibrous material, and more specifically an apparatus of the type which is disclosed in EP-C-0032 772 (DK Patent No. 149979). The apparatus has a forming head which is disposed immediately above a moving wire mesh, under which there is a suction box for the creation of a downwards-leading flow of air in the forming head. This head is configured as a bottom-less and top-less box which extends transversely to the wire mesh and contains a pair of parallel, rotatable drums consisting of perforated plates. At their respective opposing ends, these drums are flow-connected by means of channel bends at 180�, and through the one or the both of these there is blown a stream of air-fluidised fibre which thus circulates axially through the drums.
A part of the air from the suction box that is sucked down through the forming box will pass transversely through the perforated drums, and herewith have a leading-out effect on the fibres, which is supported by the rotation of the drums, which in themselves have a slinging-out effect on the air and herewith on the fibres in the drums. It has been ascertained that with this technique an advantageous distribution of the fibres can be achieved over both the length as well as the breadth of the wire mesh, as well as a quite high capacity for the plant.
In the handling of air-fluidised fibre, problems can easily arise with regard to static electricity, which can not only promote the formation of clumps in the fibres, but can also lead to the attraction of fibre clumps towards the swept surfaces such as the inner sides of said forming box. Therefore, with the relevant technique it is advantageous that a second part of the sucked-down air is brought to flow down into the clearance arising between the pair of drums and the inner sides of the forming box, in that this air can thus remove fibres and small clumps of fibres which adhere to these side surfaces.
However, with the present invention it has been realised that these conditions can be changed considerably by a modification which in principle is quite simple, namely that by means of upper cover plates, a covering can be established of the slot spaces between upper, upwardly-exposed parts of the drum cylinders, and respectively between the drum cylinders, and the spaces between these parts and the adjacent inner sides of the forming box. This would immediately appear to be controversial, the reason being that precisely the sluicing effect which the sucked-down air exercises on the inner sides of the forming box would, after all, be annulled, but the modification must be seen primarily in the light that it will force all the air which is sucked down to pass down through the drums, which will radically change the operational conditions.
Firstly, the dosing-out capacity of the drums will be increased to a particularly distinct degree, typically by no less than 60-70%. Secondly, the emission of air/fibre from the lower parts of the drums will be so intensified that this emission in itself can counteract the mentioned accumulation of fibres on the inner side of the forming box. The same will apply to a possible accumulation of fibres on the outer side of the drum cylinders around their perforations, as the fibres will be blown out through these openings with greater force than has hitherto been the case, and thus it is a realistic possibility to be able to completely avoid the arranging of hitherto-necessary means such as rotating brush rollers for the cleaning of the outer sides of the drum cylinders.
Moreover, it has proved that the improved result can be achieved while using a reduced suction effect, i.e. with a reduced consumption of energy.
The invention is illustrated by way of example in
The apparatus comprises a suction box 2 underneath a perforated forming wire mesh 4, and above this a forming head 6 in the form of a box 8 which is open down towards the wire mesh 4, in which box there extends a pair of perforated drums 10 which are suspended in a manner in which they can rotate, and with connections 12 at their ends. Via not-shown U-pipe-bends, the drum cylinders 10 form a circulation system in which a fibre-loaded stream of air supplied from the one or both ends of the pair of cylinders can circulate during the leading out of air and fibre through the perforations 14 in the cylinder walls. In order to keep the fibres well agitated inside the drum cylinders, in each of these there is housed a quickly-rotating needle roller 16.
As described so far, the apparatus is known, i.e. the air is sucked down to the suction box 2 not only down through the perforated drums 10 but also down through the respective spaces around said drums.
According to the invention, near the upper side level of the drum cylinders 10, i.e., in an area at a level between an upper horizontal tangential plane (shown in dashed lines of
With plants having a broad track, special arrangements will normally be required to achieve the desired degree of sealing between the drum cylinders 10 and the edges of the plates 18, e.g. a mounting of the drum cylinders in ball bearings 22. The slots do not need to be closed completely, but the more closed they are the more the efficiency increases.
It shall be mentioned that with the invention it will be advantageous to work with increased air pressure in a limited space 24 above the plates 18, possibly in connection with a recirculation of the suction air.
It has been customary to make use of a net of bronze wire for the forming wires 4, and it is well-known that these wires must be guided quite precisely with regard to their direction of movement by means of sensor-controlled, adjustable reversing rollers, in that they can not tolerate a crooked running in such a way that they abut with their side edges up against limiting surfaces for the transverse position. In connection with the invention it has now been ascertained that by use of a wire of plastic material, it is possible to avoid the expensive control arrangement, in that such a wire can withstand transverse control simply by contact up against fixed side guides, e.g. as shown at 26.

How'??s it going in the Set Your Goals camp?
Audelio "Junior" Flores: We'??ve just been gearing up for the summer and the record release. We'??ve had a lot of time off before this, so it'??s our first tour since the record'??s been done, just getting ready to hit the road again.
Mike Ambrose: Pumped for Slam Dunk, because, last year, it was our favorite festival I think we'??ve ever done in the UK. It was so fun, so we'??re looking forward to that and then we'??re out all summer on Warped and hoping everyone likes the new record when it comes out.
You'??re touring with your good friends, A Loss For Words and This Time Next Year, I take it you have a say when it comes to your supports?
Junior: Yeah, that was the only reason we did this run, because originally we were just going to do the festival, but when we heard A Loss For Words and This Time Next Year were on it too, so we thought we'??d do a tour with them. It'??s always good to come over with friends, it makes it a lot easier.
Mike: I think, on average, the time we all go to bed at night is between 4/5am, it'??s always light out, it'??s been like two weeks of that, so we'??ve been spending most of the day recuperating. Last night, we DJ'??ed at Shakedown, like a pop-punk night in Liverpool and everyone wore suits. [laughs] It was a good night.
Before last year'??s Slam Dunk Festival, you toured with Alkaline Trio, I went to the Newcastle date and it felt really awkward for you.
Mike: Oh man, yeah. It was so awkward. It was pretty last minute that tour.
Junior: Yeah, I mean, Alkaline Trio said that a lot of the support bands they'??ve had on previous tours that it'??s been really bad for them. Either the crowd hates you or they'??ll just tolerate you.
Mike: And I think we were tolerable - we didn'??t have shit thrown at us. [laughs] They have a really strong cult following, but we like Alkaline Trio a lot, so it was fun getting to see them play every night.
Like you said, you'??re releasing a new record, Burning at Both Ends. I found that your last album, This Will Be the Death of Us, was a bit all over, is this one more consistent?
Mike: Very cohesive. The songs stick to a formula, I'??d say. It'??s not all sporadic and random. The last album, we didn'??t get a whole time to revise and listen to it, we kind of recorded on the fly and hoped it was good. [laughs] This time round, we had four/five versions of the songs before we started tracking.
Junior: We just had a studio where we lived in and recorded anything at any time of the day, and our producer was there all the time to let us know what we could do to make it better.
Mike: He knew what our song needed to sound better because he'??s done a million records, but yeah, I think the album'??s a lot more cohesive. We'??re pumped. The songs are kind of varied, there'??s a lot of different sounds, but it makes a lot more sense.
With the last record, it seemed that people didn'??t really know what to make of it at first, they either loved it or they hated, and then it became a grower. Do you think this one is more instant?
Mike: Yeah, everyone who'??s heard it, who'??s fan of the band or friends of ours, have said this is our best stuff and it'??s the perfect blend of all things. It'??s got kind of a young sound, but the musicianship is progressive as we'??ve playing together. We'??re all really stoked.
Junior: We'??re all stoked on the music, but it'??s nerve-wracking gearing up for its release, like trying to please everyone, but you'??re not going to please everyone. We'??ve been releasing a song at a time...
Mike: Yeah, everyone wants to judge the whole thing off of one song.
Junior: A couple of the people we'??ve done interviews with have advance copies and it feels good when they said they like the record and that it'??s better than the last one.
Your last record touched on a few political issues, is this one as heavy as that?
Mike: No, there are no political songs, a lot of the lyrics are just personal stories from our experiences and introspective of relationships within the band and other people missing out on relationships. I don'??t write the lyrics, Matt and Jordan do, but there'??s a varied topic matter.
Junior: We'??ve never really been a political band, but with this one, it just touches on topics about stuff we'??ve gone through as a band.
I don'??t know if you'??ll be able to answer this one, but I read the song descriptions on Rock Sound and Matt said the song "Happy New Year" was about how 2010 was his worst year, was that for him personally or for the band in general?
Mike: Yeah, his personal life. He had some serious heavy blows, it was just stuff that happened that'??s a part of life, but it was a rough year for him, because we'??re on the road away from family and when heavy stuff happens, we have to continue on, but it'??s hard to kind of manage that. That song'??s about looking up in the grand scheme of things, like dealing with grief and then seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and pushing forward, putting things into perspective and releasing what you have.
Set Your Goals is kind of known for being a '??posi'?? band, is that something you feel you have to live up to?
Mike: No, it just sort of happens, we never go in and go, '??Oh, we can'??t write a song that has no happy ending'?? or whatever, I guess it'??s just our outlook on everything.
Junior: I think, more than anything, it'??s just from growing up in the hardcore punk scene, so lyrics mean everything to us and when it'??s lyrics with no meaning or just jibberish, it'??s pointless to us, so I think that'??s why we fit in the category of being a '??posi'?? band, because of the lyrics.
You don'??t seem to go as wild with guest vocals on the new album as you did on the last one.
Junior: We just have two, Andrew from Comeback Kid and we needed someone who could scream, so we got our friend who does security for Cobra Starship and Travie McCoy. But on the last record, it was never planned like that.
Mike: Just all our friends said they wanted to do it, so we kept finding parts for them to sing. It was more exciting for us, not just to try get all those names on the CD. It was a dream come true, like Vinnie from The Movielife, I'??m 24 and I remember when I was in high school and listening to The Movielife wishing I could do that one day, and then he sang a part on our record, it was really cool, that'??s kind of how it all was. And Jon Gula from Turmoil, he has the heaviest hardcore voice of all-time.
Junior: Chad from New Found Glory too, who'??s just a friend of ours, it was originally supposed to be Toby Morse [H2O] to do that part, but he couldn'??t do it, just because stuff happened and Chad was the next person we had in mind.
Are you still happy on Epitaph?
Mike: Absolutely, 100%. They back the band so hard.
Junior: We never knew what it was like to be on a label until we got with Epitaph. They back everything we want to do and they'??re there for us. We work hard and they work harder, and vice versa. It'??s just how Brett Gurewitz works it, he built it from scratch because he loves music.
Mike: It really does feel like a family and they'??re so supportive, whenever we'??re in the LA area, they'??re always out.
Junior: We can go to the offices and know who everyone is, you can bring your dog, hang out and have coffee.
I'??ve noticed that Set Your Goals and a few other bands have started the '??gig life'?? movement, can you tell me about that?
Mike: Hell yeah, it'??s just a group of friends. It was a term coined by Fireworks. It'??s just kind of a play on people who don'??t really get it, like you'??ll meet someone and they ask what you do and you tell them you play in a band and they don'??t understand, then it sort of manifested into this movement that we joke about with our friends.
Junior: It'??s not a joke, though; we even have tags and tattoos. [laughs] It literally is us, Four Year Strong, Polar Bear Club, Fireworks, A Loss For Words, This Time Next Year and a couple of random friends of ours. It'??s just all friends who know what we'??re all doing and enjoy touring. Somehow, some people think it'??s a gang. [laughs]
Mike: It really is a big joke, though. We even put the stamp on the back of the album.
Junior: There'??s a blog coming soon called gig-life.com, it'??ll just be all our friends posting stuff. I just bought the domain and I'??ll give the password to all my friends who can post whatever they do on tour. It'??ll be better than AbsolutePunk.net and all those other sites.
Apart from blogging, what'??s next for Set Your Goals?
Mike: We'??ll be taking a long, hot summer on Warped, which should be fun, and just push the record.
Junior: Do Australia, south east Asia, hopefully, and tour with some good friends in the Fall, then take the holidays off and hit the road again in January.
Mike: We'??re wanting to do an extensive European tour in-between, but yeah, just on the road, hoping the album'??s received well, and just keep doing what we do. It'??s gig life.
Are people'??s reactions important to you? Just because a lot of bands say they only write records for themselves.
Mike: Absolutely, we spent weeks recording it.
Junior: It gets frustrating when everyone just becomes a critic instead of just loving music, when everyone has an opinion, like '??Oh, the guitar tones aren'??t as good'?¶'?? and stuff like that, but to me, that stuff doesn'??t bother me. We'??re pumped on it, if we didn'??t like it, we wouldn'??t put it out.
Mike: Yeah, like if we got out of the studio and were like, '??God, this sucks, but hopefully it sells...'??, we have to live with that with a guilty conscience, but we walked away from it super excited. We sound check with new songs every day and we'??re all really giddy after playing them, trying to figure out what songs we'??re going to play on Warped Tour. The countdown to it all and trying to keep it under wraps, like yesterday, we kept finding bits and pieces on YouTube trying to flag them, but you can'??t really fight it. If it comes out, it does. It doesn'??t really bother us.
Junior: We download stuff all the time, it-leaked.com is a great site. It'??s one of those things, if I like the record, I'??ll buy it no matter what. All my friends records, I'??ll go support and buy it, but once you'??re in the band, you'??re like, '??Don'??t leak, please!'?? It'??s going to happen eventually, it just depends on the people you send it to. On the promo copies of our last record, we did voiceovers, where we talked over it every thirty seconds, so everyone hated it. We did the same thing on this record, but they'??re all registered to the person'??s name so we could trace it. I don'??t care though, as long as it leaks in good quality, it'??s good.
Is there anything else you want to say?
Junior: Pick up the record when it comes out, I hope you like it and check out sygstore.com for the pre-order.

Chatham Area Transit provided a record breaking 4.6 million trips last fiscal year, according to Executive Director Chadwick Reese. That amount is about 500,000 more than the previous year, Reese said.

I thought it would be interesting to look back on what Chatham County government leaders wanted state funding for in 2000, now that this year's Savannah-Chatham Day in Atlanta has passed.
An article in the Savannah Morning News dated Feb. 5 states that our local government officials schmoozed with state lawmakers and department heads during the annual Lowcountry boil in an attempt to get the state to cough up funds for a number or projects I listed down below.

While in a festive mood for next week's St. Patrick's Day celebrations, Chatham County Commissioners – many decked out in green blazers – jokingly approved the donation of a shovel and upright dust pan to the City of Savannah Friday morning.
The action came in response to an incident Thursday in which a green-dyed goat brought to the city council meeting in recognition of St. Patrick's Day relieved himself on the chamber floor.
Commissioners had the cleaning tools available in case someone brought a goat by during their own St. Pat's ceremonies.

President Barack Obama may want to call up the chairman of the Chatham County Commission, Pete Liakakis, before he visits Savannah on March 2.
Apparently, Pete, who runs a security firm, provided security services for President Richard Nixon in the early 1970s during an event at the Skidaway Institute of Oceanography.
Before the police department took responsibility, Pete's company was the agency called to investigate potential bomb threats, he said. When the president arrived, he said the U.S. Secret Service had him check underneath a boat for any bombs.

Since 2008, the Chatham County jail has not only been locking people, it has also been locking up millions in sales-tax dollars approved by voters in 2006 for drainage, road, civic, and public safety projects.
In November, those funds are expected to be granted parole.
That is because Chatham and municipal officials agreed, when the various projects were determined, to reserve the first $109 million for a jail expansion project.
After funds started coming in almost three years ago, that magic number is expected to be hit by the end of October and checks should start going out to th

Chatham County Commissioner James "Coach" Holmes shot off some three pointers and layups at his old stomping grounds in Crawford Square Thursday.
Surrounded by family and friends from the old neighborhood, most were afraid of going one-on-one with Holmes, 72, until 3-year-old Corey King stepped onto the court to take him on.

In light of tomorrow's Dump the Pump event, I thought I would share my recent bicycling experience.
After recently retiring from running – I decided I am allergic – I decided to put my new 1977 Peugeot road bike to use as a replacement form of exercise.
I made my first attempt at the ride a few weeks ago, but my tire went flat about 45 minutes in. Luckily, my ex-girlfriend and I have remained friends and she agreed to pick me up since she had room in her station wagon. My girlfriend with a truck didn't answer the phone, but that's another matter.

Back in the day - 1917 to be exact - the building that now houses The Jinx, as well as the neighboring space, where Mercury Lounge is located, was Peeples Hardware Co. An old ad listed sporting goods, fire arms, ammunition, builders' hardware, scales, stoves and cutlery for sale. That business stayed their for decades until sometime between 1957 and 1967, when it was Stubbs Sporting Goods. In 1977, The Antique Mall was there. It was vacant in 1987. In 1997, it was the Velvet Elvis, but interestingly enough, it was listed as a clothing store.

Not bad, good go carts but I think its a little expensive, with a family you can burn through $150 in no time.
This is a fun place for the kids. My husband liked racing the go cart. hey have rock climbing, mini golf, games, and the just put in a kids roller coaster and some other kids rides.
Thank you so much for your feedback! We hope to see you again soon.
The prices went up and the upkeep seems to have gone down. Still fun and the kids enjoy themselves, Could just use some sprucing up if they want me to pay those prices.
Rock climbing, laser tag, putt putt golf, rides, arcade, petal boats, etc. There are an exciting variety of things to do at this park and I have no complaints. My boyfriend and I went here for Valentine's day and had so much fun. The manager even let us in early since we were the first ones to arrive and the...
Thank you very much for sharing your experience! We hope to see you again soon.
This one worker, blonde kind on older with a small chin beard ruined multiple expieriances for me and others. Over all the staff are not freindly and treated people unfairly Arcade prize games are rigged, got proof of that. They dont seem to care about equal speeds on cars as well.
Thank you for your feedback. Our employees go through extensive training. We will be sure to address your concern with them. In the meantime if you have any recommendations or would like to speak to management, email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Thanks again!
Kids love the go carts, batting cages, mini golf and the lazer tag. Lots of variety and lots to do so kids don't get bored easily. Check for coupons online and groupon specials before you go. A great deal when you get the wrist bands.
We purchased the 3 hour wrist bands and the time flew. It's a very fun place to spend with the entire family. The staff was extremely friendly, attentive, and courteous. We rode the go carts several times, did the sky ropes course, played laser tag, batting cages, rock climbed, kids played in the park and rode the rides in the...
Thank you for your feedback! We hope to see you again soon. In fact, we have a new addition coming to the park later this month that you wont want to miss called the 'Spinning Coaster', it'll be included in your wristband at no cost. Again, thank you and hope to see you soon!
It was a good place to go and and fun. Had a wide variety of things to do including the arcade, laser tag, hugh ropes course, rockclimbing wall, and the bumper carts. However, the workers were all punks that liked to feel some power so whenever any sort of bumping occurred they would kick you off the track and give...

The track attendants are young kids with an inflated sense of power. They very much enforce the no bumping rule. To the point that I was kicked off a track for BEING bumped.
The one saving grace is their adult track. It is $7.50 extra on top of the wristband, but definitely worth it. Very good track.

At Andretti Thrill Park we highly value our guests experience and strive to constantly improve the park in every aspect. Thank you very much for sharing your experience as we do greatly value all feedback. Safety is and will always remain our number one priority.

Smart Edge of Tomorrow Keeps Killing Tom Cruise

Credit goes to Betty Thomas (Sergeant Lucy Bates from Hill Street Blues, director of The Brady Bunch Movie and Dr. Dolittle) for letting her stars play smartly silly. As special agent Alex Scott, Owen Wilson employs his gnarly nose and Mr. Rogers intonation to charming effect (the whole role feels exactly like his subtly hilarious line from Shanghai Noon: "These guns are weird!"). The sad-sack, second-rate spy finds himself peculiarly partnered with undisputed middleweight boxing champ Kelly Robinson (Eddie Murphy), and the duo's sass fully eclipses the contrived plot, which was cobbled together by a screenwriting committee.
The skinny is that a post-Stealth prototype reconnaissance plane called the Switchblade (sleek and way digital) has been snatched by a Budapest-based baddie named Arnold Gundars (Malcolm McDowell, stuck on villain autopilot without a single funny line) who intends to auction it off on a sort of terrorist eBay. A passionate boxing fan (there is no mention of tennis à la Cosby), Gundars also happens to have arranged a big bout between Robinson and the current European champ at his enormous mansion. Since the sexy Latino superspy Carlos (Gary Cole) is preoccupied, second-tier Scott is dispatched to Hungary with the punchy pugilist and his posse to locate the plane and sneak it back to the U.S., triggering a crowd-pleasing barrage of nifty explosions and amusing insults.
From the opening segment of Scott's tumultuous mission in snowy Vancouver . . . er . . . Uzbekistan (which betrays an unabashed affection for Spies Like Us) to the jumbled but good-natured chase scenes through the streets of Budapest and Gundars' lavish estate (a.k.a. the gorgeous Buda Castle), I-Spy aims to please. Sometimes the action works (especially in the inventive aerial stunts) and sometimes it doesn't (in yet another Mission: Impossible-type ceiling suspension scene leading to a truly impossible escape through a solid dome, plus a very messy final standoff), but it scarcely matters in either case. The way these jovial actors click, they could be playing king of the mountain with super-soakers to equal, possibly better, effect.
Of late, Murphy's crackling presence has lit up Bowfinger, Shrek and Dr. Dolittle 2, and in I-Spy, his trick bag stuffed with absurd bravado and freakish tics, the master tickler shows us the funny. En route to tentative heroics, he riffs on technology (dubbing the virtually invisible Switchblade a "leafy bug"), transportation ("Kelly Robinson ain't gettin' on the back o' no scooter like no bitch!"), self-reflection ("I see you looks at me lookin' at me and I see me!"), gender relations ("Bitch needs some slappin'!"), the Hungarian language ("ibbidy-bibbidy shit") and romantic love ("I'm gonna go across the street and wax that ass" -- a line perhaps perfected during the comedian's West Hollywood adventures). In short, love him or not, he's on.
Wilson admirably holds his own with Murphy (stating from the get-go that he refuses to be "that team that just stands around and looks like idiots" while the Harlem Globetrotters win every point) as does Famke Janssen, who appears as the requisite sexpot spy, Rachel Wright. The trio is responsible for one of the year's funniest and sweetest scenes, as Murphy -- channeling Marvin Gaye -- plays high-tech Cyrano to Wilson in the remarkably unsoulful spy's fumbling attempt to seduce the leggy bad girl. If big-screen cash-ins can offer this much fun, bring on Knight Rider, The Greatest American Hero and Welcome Back, Kotter.
Considering that I-Spy was packaged by producers Mario Kassar and Andy Vajna (the men who brought us the Rambo movies and Jacob's Ladder), its playfulness is all the more impressive. What it lacks in originality -- almost 100 percent -- it covers with great energy and free-flowing titters. It's certainly not vital cinema, but it's the best chunk of disposable entertainment I've seen in days.

Money Makeover: 'Am I there yet?'
Recent widow wonders whether she's saved enough to retire ASAP
The last year has been anything but easy for Nancy. Her husband of many years passed away suddenly, making retirement planning a lot more uncertain.
"We were sitting pretty," says the real estate agent in her late 60s.
The year before his death, their finances were in great shape. She was grossing about $90,000 a year from work. They were both collecting OAS and CPP.
And her husband -- a U.S. citizen -- received a monthly Social Security cheque.
"Then he passes away, and I jumped into action mode. I did what I had to do," she says, adding her work income was cut almost in half in 2012.
Nancy has no debt and about $420,000 in RRSPs and other savings, but she has had little time to think about her financial future.
Just the thought of retiring makes her apprehensive now that she's paying for living expenses on one income.
"I look at my personal expenses and my fixed income, and they don't match up."
Nancy estimates she needs about $40,000 a year after taxes to maintain her lifestyle, but she admits she's not certain what she will do once retired. She might travel a lot; she may need a new car; and she's even considering moving to another province to be closer to her grandchildren.
"I have a chartered accountant who looked at my finances and said, 'It looks like you're going to have to work really hard for the next three years, so put everything away you can and reduce your spending.' "
It's disheartening news, but she says she is willing to do what it takes.
"How long do I have to work; what do I have to put away every year for as long as I am working, and am I living beyond my means?"
Certified financial planner Jan Fraser says Nancy's challenges are less about the numbers and have more to do with the softer issues of retirement planning, which will ultimately determine when she can stop working for good.
"The first question to answer is 'what does her ideal retirement look like?'" says the adviser with Fraser and Partners in Winnipeg.
"The chances are activities that have made her life fulfilling in the past will make her life worth living in retirement."
Figuring out how she wants to spend the next 10 to 30 years may take a little bit of time, especially after a year of emotional and financial upheaval, but examining her spending habits carefully is a good place to start.
"In order to be able to build a meaningful retirement plan, Nancy needs to know what her current lifestyle actually costs," Fraser says, adding a review of monthly bank account and credit card statements will provide a more accurate handle on spending than current estimates.
"I do suspect that she has underestimated what she will require in the first 10 years of her retirement."
For instance, Nancy's stated monthly housing cost may be too low.
Property taxes, maintenance, utilities and major upgrades to maintain her home's value will likely add up to more than $625 a month.
Nancy may also find some expenses will decrease once she retires -- such as gasoline and office supplies -- while others, such as vacations and gifts, may rise.
Because Nancy is self-employed, many of her expenses are a mixture of business and pleasure. She has been able to claim a number of expenses -- utilities, vehicles costs, etc. -- as employment tax deductions, something she will no longer be able to do once fully retired.
Reviewing tax returns for the past couple of years will help her determine whether or not losing those deductions will increase her overall cost of living.
Yet even without firmer numbers, Nancy can retire tomorrow if she so chooses. The question is whether she can balance spending early in retirement with potentially increased costs later on if she requires assisted-living accommodations or home care.
On the whole, however, retirees tend to spend the most money in the first decade after retiring, Fraser says.
At the very least, Nancy should be able to build a layered retirement income that will exceed her after-tax goal of $40,000 annually.
Fraser says her estimate is conservative, based on a four per cent portfolio return and three per cent inflation.
If Nancy finds she wants to spend a little more in the next decade, the downside will be that she will likely leave behind a smaller estate if she lives into her 90s.
Still, she does have some wiggle room. By her mid-80s, Nancy's income-producing assets would be a little less than $500,000 in today's dollars. At that point if she sells her home, her wealth would exceed $900,000, also in today's dollars.
Afterward, her net worth would slowly decline as she uses the proceeds from the sale of her home to fund additional costs that may be required for home care or assisted living.
Even then, Nancy will still have some financial flexibility. By her mid-90s, her net worth will still be about $400,000 in today's dollars.
It's unlikely, however, she will choose to live in her home until age 85, especially if she is contemplating moving closer to family.
"At that time, Nancy may look forward to the simpler lifestyle that renting may provide."
Furthermore, she needs to work with a planner or adviser who can help her set up her investments to provide the income she requires as tax-efficiently as possible.
And making better use of her TFSA certainly should be a cornerstone of that strategy.
"Right now, she's only got about $5,000 in there, so she should consider moving her non-registered investments into the tax-sheltered account," Fraser says.
Moving this money to the TFSA may result in a tax event. Professional investment advice will be instrumental in helping weigh future tax savings as investments growth inside the TFSA against potential capital-gains taxes she may have to pay when moving the money into the tax-sheltered account.
"In her case, this account could be earmarked as a source of funds for future health-care costs," Fraser says, adding a dividend investment strategy -- not GICs and savings accounts -- is well-suited for the TFSA. "If she can earn four to five per cent each year in her TFSA, she can protect her capital against the loss of purchasing power that comes as a result of inflation."
And the money can be withdrawn without affecting income-tested benefits such as OAS.
Still, the above numbers are just estimates. Once Nancy has a better idea of what she wants to do in retirement, they are likely to change. Regardless, she is well-positioned to adjust, Fraser says.
"If she works this year and possibly next, really focusing on figuring this out while putting as much money away as possibly, she'll do all right."
Nancy's finances
Employment: $50,000 ($2,000 net a month)
OAS: $5,580 (based on 2011 income)
Social Security: $4,800
Total monthly net income: $3,618
Monthly expenses: $3,178 (excludes TFSA and RRSPs contributions)
Debts: none
Home: $315,000
Non-registered investments: $36,000
U.S. tax-sheltered account: $60,000
Net worth: $737,000

Maxie Pear
Anyone have or going to get a maxie pear? I have considered it but am concerned with the possibility of it being susceptible to fireblight.
Love to hear other thoughts on the tree.
Thats about all here.
Nice looking round hybrid pear.
Here is a link that might be useful: Maxie Pear
I ended up getting a couple from Starks and must say they are super vigorous and have absolutely beautiful purple green colored foliage. They have an upright growing tendency so initial branch bending/raining is constant. I'm focusing on scaffolding and maybe I'll see some fruit in a couple years. As far as hybrids I also got some crisp and sweet from HFlds, also nice. more vigorous than the euros.
I just put in a Maxie pear from Starks, too. Will have a Hosui as a companion to it, but not sure about cross-pollination (opinions seem all over the place). Would very much like to hear flavor comments about the Maxie when/if it produces fruit for anyone. I'm in gopher heaven here, so have to be on guard every day - one (now deceased) got my new Kikusui pear from last year.
I have a Warren pear that i don't spray,it is 9 years old and gives me 4 5gls pails of pear this year.Some of the pears are mishapened. I rate this pear as excellent to say the least. Friends and neighbours told me they have never taste pears that good.This tree takes it time going into fruiting.First pears after 6 years(5 pears) then more.

Foundation in need of waterproofing- Seeking advice
We are in the midst of a house renovation where we are using part of the pre-existing foundation and abutting new foundation to increased the footprint of the house. Where the old and new foundation meet we have a small leak in the corner (approximately 2 feet up from the basement floor). It appears to be a slow leak but with a heavy rainfall we have seen a large puddle evolve. The contractor has applied the black waterproofing membrane twice to the exterior and hydraulic cement to the interior without success. It is now being suggested that we use a capillary system. If anyone has had experience with this system, is it effective for the long term? Anyone have other suggestions on how to handle this issue?
Is the black "membrane" painted or troweled onto the wall or is it a flexible sheet that is adhered to the wall?
IMHO the best kind is a cold spray=on modified bitumen (rubberized-asphalt) that fills any irregularities in the surface.
Look at Tremco's Permaquick systems to seal the concrete from water penetration.
