the Vampire Slayer and arguably the most inventive pop storyteller of his generation. So how come Whedon never became as famous as so much of the derivative trash he inspired? Better question: Now that his summer blockbuster, The Avengers, is about to arrive, isn't

The VFW Labor Day Gun Show and Flea Market, which has been held every Labor Day weekend for the past 45 years, has a reputation for being a place you can find just about anything. The problem is, sometimes that thing you've been dying to purchase may not be legit. It may be a counterfeit, so be careful of what you buy when the show begins Friday, Aug. 31.
"It varies from year to year," said Hillsville Police Chief Jason Hawks of the counterfeit items that unscrupulous vendors pass of as legitimate. "CDs, DVDs, clothing, sunglasses, T-shirts and high-dollar pocketbooks are usually among the most common items."
Hawks said he and his officers do their best to protect the public, but with so much area to cover, it's not easy.
"Before the flea market starts, we go around and scope it out," said Hawks. "If we see something we think is counterfeit, depending on the item, we tell the vendor to put it up and don't let us see you selling it again. If we see it back out, the items will be confiscated and the vendor may be charged."
Hawks advises visitors to the flea market to adhere to the old adage "If it's too good to be true, it usually isn't."
"Those vendors are good salesmen. If it's a $500 pocketbook and they're asking $30, it's counterfeit. If they're asking $100 or $200, it's probably counterfeit," said Hawks.
Counterfeit items are not the only illegal merchandise for sale at the flea market, however.
"Brass knuckles and spring-loaded knives, some call them switchblades, may not be counterfeit, but they are illegal. It's an every year thing, but they've gotten to be a smaller problem over the years," said Hawks.
Crime is relatively low too, according to Hawks.
"There's going to be shoplifting, and we have calls of larceny. Violence is not too bad, most of the time it's just a case of someone who has had too much to drink."
"Our population is somewhere around 2,400 people normally, but with the flea market it swells to 100,000 per day, maybe more," so we see more of everything.
Hawks said he especially appreciates CVS Pharmacy allowing the police department to set up their "command center" in their parking lot, and points out that the rescue squads are "strategically placed in order to attend to medical situations, such as falls, heat and other medical problems."
Hawks added that he also appreciates the support the police department receives from town employees.
"The town council, the mayor, everybody at town hall are a big help. They give us a lot of support, and always there when we need them."
Although for most people the flea market is a fun way to spend the Labor Day weekend, it's one of the busiest times of the year for the Hillsville Police Department.
"We really have to adjust our schedule. It's the one time of the year when nobody gets off for anything. Everybody works at least eight hours a day," said Hawks, adding that they can rely on help from the Carroll County Sheriff's Department for help if the police department should need it.
The biggest problem, according to Hawks, is traffic.
"Most local people are going to know the side streets they can use to avoid heavy traffic, but those from out of town sometimes get overwhelmed. The center lane (on U.S. 58) is an emergency lane, but some mistake it for a passing lane. Most of our problems deal with illegal parking to cars bumping into each other in the parking lots to key getting locked up in cars, and, last year, we had some issues with people leaving their pet locked up in their cars."
The main thing Hawks stresses for those visiting the flea market is to have patience.
"Everybody needs to just be patient with the traffic. Detours are advertised if you don't know your way around town and want to avoid traffic. Be patient with the officers, it's stressful on them too. We just want everybody to be safe and enjoy it."
Although Hawks said the flea market presents a challenge for his police department, he adds, "It's good to see it coming because it's good for the town. But it's also good to see it go."

What do you consider an average to above average player
Like (0)
Anyone with a k/d between 1-2 is average to above average IMO, or someone with below 1 k/d that plays the objective and has team work I'd consider average - above average as well.
Based on a K/d, average would surely suggest a K/d of 1...as there can't be more players above 1 than there is also below 1.
good players think & adapt
Unfourtunately you cannot base how a player is based on their KDR. It is flawed, and easily manipulated. I could sit in a corner and hide all game long go 1-0. Eventually my KDR would be through the roof.
Maybe by looking at their average score may be a better indicator. I guess if its low, it would show more of what you do during a game, but again that could be flawed also. Its not easy in this game to determine it without actually watching someone play.
But then it will vary by play style. Many think camping is a noob thing to do. Maybe staring at a door all game is, but if you are sniping and getting atleast 10 kills a game (non-objective based) Then you are probably doing pretty well. If you are run n gun maybe 15 kills per game. Of course dying just as many times or more is not helping out the team.
But that brings up another debate, objective versus non-objective game modes. What may be considered doing well in a non-objective game mode, may not be considered doing to well in an onjective based game mode, and vice versa.
Score per minute may be the best indicator I guess, but you can't see that on the game ( I think). It shows it in elite
A good player- someone who plays the objective and wins with a positive kd
A bad player- someone who plays for kills and loses with a positive kd
KD doesn't make a person good. There are too many aspects that make kd inaccurate. A person can leave when doing horrible so they don't mess up their kd, they can camp and get kills that way, they can boost, only use 1 gun/setup.
The best single stat Ive seen to detmine a players ability is Score Per Minute (SPM).
And even that is only about 70% reliable. (To give some context, KDR is about 35-40% reliable.)
On a slight tangent, I've played enough games now that I can actually tell how good a team mate is purely by seeing how his triangle moves on the mini map.
In truth, simple stats are largely worthless in CoD these days to determine ability. So many things create "noise" in their results (for example, the level of rage-quitting is laughably ridiculous - and yes, I am talking to you who is reading this... if "ragequitting rates" were public information, a huge amount of players would be shamed into ever entering the discussion.)
But alas, we live in a world where the community worships the youtube domination ground war killwhores (regardless of result) and everyone operates and views things on a perverse perspective of "greatness."
"You'd rather look good and lose then look bad and win."
So what would you consider a good SPM?

Are you basing the "average" to "above average" player on statistics or play style?
Really dude? O_o
Someone above average will generally dropshot & strafe in gun fight, aim fast and use cover to his advantage while moving around, constantly pre-adsing too . Someone average generally plays slower. I had a lot of fun watching below average players play black ops in theater..
Average players are the ones I kill. Above average are the ones who kill me. I guess that puts me somewhere in between the two.
Sadly, you can't determine a players skill in MW3 accurately. I've seen people with under 1 K/Ds get a MOAB one game and put up the most pitiful numbers the next because of how lag effects them game to game
What I would consider a good player though is situational awareness and map management. Being able to control a map is key understanding players tendencies and knowing where the enemy is even if they don't appear on radar seperates a average player form the rest
Anyone with half a brain. There's surprisingly few when it comes to COD.
The above average players tend to be individuals who have played a previous COD heavily, soundwhore, play via a monitor and have a connection advantage. These factors dont make a great player, but theyll make you above average.
Below Average to Average players:
Play bad.
They sit too long in a spot for no reason
The stop in doorways
They look at objectives instead of claiming them
They keep running the same way and getting killed over and over
They may defend, but do not have the smarts to look in a different direction
They run in your line of fire, and don't shoot getting you both killed
Above average players
Play better to well.
They Cap
They Defend
They check corners looking for bad players
They move around the map with situational awareness
They are not worried about the K/D in objective modes
They strive for a positive K/D in non-objective game modes
Basically, they do not do what bad players do, and are aware that there are bad players out there and take advantage of it.
No Stat in this game has any bearing on a players abilities given the connections. Even if the connections were perfect, stats only become relevant in the context of the game mode they are playing (even SPM). Because stats are so transparent and readily available, people are more concerned with their stats (and posting game playing on youtube) than actually playing sometimes...
Long, but accurate post. I agree, stats and rank don't mean jack squat. Play a couple of games and you know who in the lobby is good and who sucks. We all have bad games, but being able to adapt and play well in any circumstance not related to poor programming is what defines a good player for me.
Leaderboard stats, SPM and KD are useless seperate but put them together and you get a good feel for how well someone plays. Also accolades reveal a players strengths but you can't see them unless they're on your friend list.
From experience we all know when were dealing with a poor / decent / good player when playing the game. We recognize them, we either avoid them or add them to our PSN.
Stats tell you so much but they can be a good indication of how they play before the game starts.
To me a "Team player" is an above average player. Stats are irrelavent, as someone that will fight "tooth and nail" for an objective may have a poor KD/R, but will inevitably in there own way via persistance win the game to some degree. I mean by that, they will play a unoticed crucial role when the game falls in your favour.
example: will protect a fellow team member who is in Final Stand, stay with him until he can get up and look after himself.
That last example: Though its a good one and your right, is a rare thing in this game. Unlike BOPs where you could revive them, standing near by is a character trait instead of skill trait.
But we all know when we deal with poor players we avoid them like the plague, I hate to admit it but if someone played or plays poorly and they are on my team I know it will be an uphill battle and if possible ill leave the game before it starts.
I didn't know that about BLOP's, I was playing KILLZONE3. BLOP's got released shortly after KILLZONE3 and I had already committed to KILLZONE. My BLOP's game sat in my office drawer at work unpacked. I have promised many people, who will never let me live this down.
I will unpack and play BLOP's2

Yeah and their other stats will show it as in SPM and whatever the objective is stat will also display it. Also above average would suggest they can both play the objective and finish in the positive across the board.

In objective modes this could end up hurting the team as instead of just one player out of action you now have 2.
People can refer to the stats as much as they want, but judging by comments every time I play, if someone is better than you they are better than average or a 'try-hard' (I know, we all love that term), if they are worse than you they suck and are a noob. This isn't my opinion, this is just based on in-game comments I hear every day.
Most of the time I get called a noob is when I beat someone; they use the term in anger and frustration to make up for their inadequacies.

It's more a comination of stats that shows how someone plays someone who sits in a corner is gonna have a great KD but a sucky score so high KD+ low SPM = camper. It's even easier if you've got access to someone emblems.
If someone has logged in 100s of hours at HQ,KC or whatever mode you choose but has low number of the associated accolades for that mode then you've got someone below average.
Same goes for leaderboard if they're high up but with a meager amount of whatever objective the mode your playing is then they are below average.
I believe and average player has a K/D ratio of 1.00 or more and there points per game is over 1,000...this allows them to play and not sit in a corner...Above average would be 1.25 K/D ratio and 2,00 points per game...a great player would be 1.5 K/D ratio and 5,000 points per game....but most important they must play the objective...too many people sit back and pick people off and they don't help the team win...isn't that what this is all about? Team work!
A good player dosnt care about stats they want to win. They read the game.
They protect you as your capping a flag. They run we're they think the enemy is coming from as your capping a flag as a line of defence they don't mind dying as long as you cap it.
They don't camp in 1 spot.
They don't follow you through doors or up stairs.
They don't go the same way as you. You both flank
They face the other way to you when capping flags.
They take out air support
They don't triple cap or cap the non b flag unless you can't get b
They don't keep running in to kill zones looking for revenge
They don't land 1 bullet then chase the guy around the corner
It's just being aware your on a team.
I played with a random today he was acting big because my team of randoms beat him. I said to him stop camping for your reaper and start capping flags lol
Anyway next game he's on my team it was a tough game by that I mean I wasn't able to rack up killstreaks as I was having to cap flags.
We won I had 35 kills 30 deaths this guy had 30 kills and 4 deaths.
He's like yeah my agm won us that lol
I just said km in first place with the most caps and 1000 more score than you lol that's a below average guy one that won't dig deep to win.
If I would of chilled more and got chopper agm ac130 by the time we both got our streaks we would of being losing 20-140 or summat lol

An anonymous donor has provided an early Christmas present to the Mount Airy Police Department: a new off-road vehicle that will allow officers access to such areas as remote sections of city greenways.
"It's a tremendous asset to the agency," a beaming Police Chief Dale Watson said Wednesday afternoon, just after the shiny Kubota RTV 1100 arrived at the police station upon being outfitted with special equipment and departmental logos.
"It just allows us to do more," Watson said of the rough-terrain vehicle with a total price tag in the $20,000 range.
The RTV will have its official public debut Saturday morning during the Mount Airy Christmas Parade.
A local man who has been insistent that his identity remain a secret decided to give the off-road vehicle to city police after learning about the efforts of a group called Friends of the Mount Airy Police Department. It was formed last year by local citizens who saw a need for specialized equipment in the department which can't be provided through normal channels because of budgetary constraints.
Acquiring an RTV had been announced as the group's top goal for fundraising efforts.
"Their act of kindness will serve this community for many years to come," Watson said of the anonymous donor. "Without their generosity, this would never be possible."
After learning in October that an RTV was needed, the anonymous donor who eventually supplied it contacted Mount Airy Equipment Co., where he is a longtime customer, and made the necessary arrangements. His identity is known only by personnel at the business.
Melanie Jones, the chief organizer of Friends of the Mount Airy Police Department who is the group's secretary, said Mount Airy Equipment also aided the cause. "They gave us an incredible deal," Jones said.
"It's very exciting — very generous," she said of the department gaining the RTV in the manner it did.
Friends of the Mount Airy Police Department, which has generated around $14,000 in its first year through various fundraisers, supplied about $4,000 for upgrades to the RTV related to its law enforcement use.
In addition to being a four-wheel-drive vehicle, it will be equipped with a Stokes basket, which is used in rescue operations, along with a winch and accessories to effect the transport of an accident or other victim. Standard equipment includes a siren and flashing lights — giving the RTV the basic appearance of a mini-police car despite its four-wheeler elements.
It was delivered late Wednesday afternoon from Pine State Marketing, which also had a role in the project. "They did the wrapping of it," the police chief said of items such as logos.
With Mount Airy's greenway presence at more than four miles and growing, the RTV will allow access to hard-to-reach areas of the pathways for emergencies as well as regular patrols. Watson said it also can be helpful during special events such as festivals when streets are closed to normal vehicular travel.
Wednesday afternoon's delivery attracted a small crowd of municipal and police officials.
"This is so nice," City Manager Barbara Jones said while admiring the addition to the fleet which will be housed in a storage area at the police station.
Jones added that she was impressed by the gift of the anonymous donor and the collective efforts of the police support group.
Earlier, the new group provided a special tactical vest to the department which will be used as protection in narcotics and other operations where violence could erupt.
"I think it's awesome — it's just fantastic," the city manager said.

Here are details of "fiscal cliff" law
The Associated Press
Highlights of a bill Congress passed Tuesday aimed at averting wide tax increases and budget cuts scheduled to take effect with the new year. The measure would raise taxes by about $600 billion over 10 years compared with tax policies that were due to expire at midnight Monday. It would also delay for two months across-the-board cuts to the budgets of the Pentagon and numerous domestic agencies.
The House and Senate passed the bill on Tuesday and sent it to President Barack Obama for his signature.
Highlights include:
—Income tax rates: Extends decade-old tax cuts on incomes up to $400,000 for individuals, $450,000 for couples. Earnings above those amounts would be taxed at a rate of 39.6 percent, up from the current 35 percent. Extends Clinton-era caps on itemized deductions and the phase-out of the personal exemption for individuals making more than $250,000 and couples earning more than $300,000.
—Estate tax: Estates would be taxed at a top rate of 40 percent, with the first $5 million in value exempted for individual estates and $10 million for family estates. In 2012, such estates were subject to a top rate of 35 percent.
—Capital gains, dividends: Taxes on capital gains and dividend income exceeding $400,000 for individuals and $450,000 for families would increase from 15 percent to 20 percent.
—Alternative minimum tax: Permanently addresses the alternative minimum tax and indexes it for inflation to prevent nearly 30 million middle- and upper-middle income taxpayers from being hit with higher tax bills averaging almost $3,000. The tax was originally designed to ensure that the wealthy did not avoid owing taxes by using loopholes.
—Other tax changes: Extends for five years Obama-sought expansions of the child tax credit, the earned income tax credit, and an up-to-$2,500 tax credit for college tuition. Also extends for one year accelerated "bonus" depreciation of business investments in new property and equipment, a tax credit for research and development costs and a tax credit for renewable energy such as wind-generated electricity.
—Unemployment benefits: Extends jobless benefits for the long-term unemployed for one year. Continued...
—Cuts in Medicare reimbursements to doctors: Blocks a 27 percent cut in Medicare payments to doctors for one year. The cut is the product of an obsolete 1997 budget formula.
—Social Security payroll tax cut: Allows a 2-percentage-point cut in the payroll tax first enacted two years ago to lapse, which restores the payroll tax to 6.2 percent.
—Across-the-board cuts: Delays for two months $109 billion worth of across-the-board spending cuts set to start striking the Pentagon and domestic agencies this week. Cost of $24 billion is divided between spending cuts and new revenues from rule changes on converting traditional individual retirement accounts into Roth IRAs.

Written by PETA
Lantos has said that his traumatizing experience in the Holocaust, during which his family was killed and he spent time in a forced labor camp, gave him and his wife Annette an understanding of what it means to be victimized for no other reason than being different from others, and inspired them both to devote their lives to working on behalf of the oppressed and the downtrodden. At PETA, we are profoundly indebted to Tom Lantos for his insistence that oppression should be fought wherever it exists, not just where it's convenient, and we will always remember the important work that he did to help animals with gratitude and admiration.
Tom Lantos will be deeply missed here at PETA, both by those of us who knew him personally, and by those of us, like me, who have been inspired by his example. Even as we mourn his loss, we celebrate his amazing work for all beings.
You may have heard of Safeway. They are the second-largest grocery chain in North America. Which makes our latest breakthrough with the company (which has been six years in the making) a huge victory for animals. Safeway executives have just confirmed to us that they are initiating a new animal welfare plan that will make them, along with Whole Foods, one of the grocery industry leaders with regard to animal welfare. The company has agreed to encourage all of their egg suppliers to ban battery cages, implement a purchasing preference for pork that was produced without cruel gestation crates, and favor poultry suppliers that use controlled-atmosphere killing (the least cruel method of slaughter) instead of electric stun baths and throat-slitting.
As usual with these announcements, this is wonderful news because it means that one of the biggest, most influential corporations in the world is listening to the public's concerns about animal suffering and making significant changes that will directly affect millions of animals—as well as fundamentally changing the way an entire industry does business. It does not mean that we're all going to pat ourselves on the backs, pack up our desks, and go home. We still have a long way to go before animals stop being tortured and killed because (for instance) people have a preference for a certain kind of breakfast food, but this is a big step in the right direction, and we're extremely grateful to everyone who helped us during the years of negotiations, the multiple shareholder resolutions, and the action alerts encouraging Safeway to take animal issues seriously.
Thanks to Safeway for making this compassionate decision, and to everyone who worked so hard to make it happen. Now back to work.
There was yet another carriage-horse fatality in New York today. How many more horses have to die before New York realizes that this industry has no place in a civilized city? The following is PETA's official statement on the incident.
PETA has just learned that a horse used to pull carriages in New York City died this afternoon at the Clinton Park Stables. Unconfirmed reports indicate that the horse died of colic, which causes severe abdominal pain. PETA is investigating the circumstances of the horse's death and reminds New Yorkers as well as tourists that these horses should be in pastures, not locked in dark, damp stalls in warehouse buildings. We renew our call to New Yorkers to help put an end to this inhumane and unsafe industry and to support City Council Member Tony Avella's proposal to ban horse-drawn carriages in the city.
Literally. Mississippi state representative W.T. Mayhall Jr. has been all over the news recently after introducing a provocative bill that would bar Mississippi restaurants from serving obese people. I'll refrain from commenting on whether such a bill would be a good idea, but if they are going to consider such things, we have a suggestion for an amendment: instead of royally pissing everybody off by refusing to serve overweight people altogether, PETA is proposing that restaurants be required to serve only healthy vegan meals to consumers who are struggling with their weight. As PETA Vice President Bruce Friedrich says, "Vegan meals like hearty vegetable casseroles, bean burritos, and pasta with mushrooms, tomatoes, and green peppers not only are satisfying but will slim you right down too." You can read our letter to the state rep here.
We've been trying to get designer Donna Karan to watch some footage of exactly what happens to the animals killed for her fur coats for a long time now—and yesterday, a brave PETA member who was up in New York for fashion week made sure that happened, with a little help from some soy lattes: Dressed to the nines and carrying a tray of coffees, she marched up to Donna Karan's apartment and was welcomed inside without any questions, and offered a seat in the living room. When Donna Karan returned home, my friend pulled out the mini DVD player she had in her bag and cued up the fur farm footage, prompting the following exchange:
DK: I can't watch this now. I have somewhere to be . . . I just really don't have the time. PETA: Yes, but you've promised twice that you would stop using fur and you keep bringing it back. Everyone's so disappointed. You have to know that this isn't right.DK: I've seen all these videos, but for me it's just purses and accessories. PETA: But for me and millions of other people, these are animals. They suffer terribly as they are electrocuted, gassed and skinned alive for their pelts.
…and so on, until Donna decided enough was enough and escorted my friend out of the house. Pissed off as she was, hopefully this has at least planted the seed in her head that it's time to stop supporting the horrific abuses of the fur industry. But if that doesn't work, we've got a few more tricks up our sleeve:
The New York Post featured this story on their front page today. You can read their coverage here.
Call me a hopeless dreamer, but I really thought we were going to get a bit of a break from hearing news about professional athletes taking part in vicious blood sports. The latest is that New York Mets all-star Pedro Martinez was videotaped taking part in a cockfighting event in the Dominican Republic. Cockfighting is still legal in the Dominican Republic, so Pedro wasn't actually breaking any laws, but there's a reason that it's illegal in this country: It's a hideously cruel, barbaric practice that's nothing short of torture for the animals involved. I know the guy has a reputation for being a headhunter, but this is taking it a bit far, don't you think? The damage is done now, sadly, but we're asking Pedro Martinez and Hall of Famer Juan Marichal (who was also present at the event) to take part in our "Developing Empathy For Animals" training seminar, which Michael Vick voluntarily attended after being charged, so hopefully some good will come of it. We're also calling on the league to offer animal-sensitivity training for MLB players.
You can read our letter to Pedro Martinez here, and there's a great post on the story by Deadspin's Rick Chandler here.
Earlier today, we launched the latest and (IMHO) greatest installment of the new video series for our Animal Birth Control Campaign. Just in time for the American Kennel Club-sponsored Westminster Dog Show, this one makes a few telling points about the folks who run the AKC—a group which discourages spay/neuter legislation and bills aimed at protecting pets from abuse as part of its agenda to cash in on the animal-breeding business, while millions of homeless animals die in shelters and on the streets. I love this video.
That's right. It's officially the Year of the Rat today, and in honor of the new year's murine mascots, PETA is asking people to, um, be a bit nicer to them. For regular folk, doing that could be as simple as looking into humane options for dealing with rats who may end up in their home. And for people like the executives at Mars Candy, it would probably mean discontinuing those experiments where they torture and kill the little guys. This recent demonstration outside a Mars factory in Chicago helped to drive that point home (at the expense of some completely frozen protesters):
Meanwhile, the folks in PETA Asia Pacific have been busy as hell bringing in the New Year with demonstrations aimed at encouraging people to stop buying glue traps. You can see some pics from those demos here.
So, a very happy Year of the Rat to everyone! Hopefully it'll be a good year for rats, too. It's about time they caught a break.
If you have a general question for PETA and would like a response, please e-mail email@example.com. If you need to report cruelty to an animal, please click here. If you are reporting an animal in imminent danger and know where to find the animal and if the abuse is taking place right now, please call your local police department. If the police are unresponsive, please call PETA immediately at 757-622-7382 and press 2.

Dance Central Review
Game Emblems
The Good
Dance Central welcomes wallflowers and hot steppers out on the dance floor with great routines and engaging visuals.
The Good
- Great visuals are both invigorating and informative
- Wide breadth of dance complexity
- Helpful training mode
- Hard to resist dancing along with your friends.
The Bad
- Weird photo functionality.
Dance video games are not a new phenomenon, but the full-body tracking capabilities of the Kinect have created a new controller-and-mat-free opportunity for the genre to strut its stuff. Enter Dance Central, a game that invites experienced move busters and reluctant rug cutters alike to stand up in front of their televisions and dance to a wide variety of popular songs. Dancing along to these songs is inherently fun, but it's also very satisfying to nail a tough routine or master a tricky move because you know the game is actually tracking your whole body. The large, expressive dancers and clue-laden flash cards give you all the visual information you need to learn and then master the routine. The broad spectrum of dance complexity also caters to players of all skill levels. As long as you are willing to shake what your momma gave ya and aren't worried about a little perspiration, Dance Central can light your living room up like Saturday night at the dance hall.
One thing that makes Dance Central so appealing is how easy it is to play. You start up the game, pick a song, and then mirror the vibrantly animated performer onscreen as you dance through the song-specific routine. Helpful flash cards scroll up the side of the screen and tell you what move is coming next, and there's even a small window where you can watch your silhouette in action. The whole display is so lively and communicative that it's easy to get drawn into the action and forget that--to any onlookers--you might look kind of silly. In fact, the music and visuals create such an infectious dance vibe that any onlookers will likely be tempted to join in the routine themselves. Even though the game only tracks one player at a time, anyone can dance along, providing they don't obstruct the primary player. Dance Central is one of the rare games that encourages and enables multiplayer action without requiring any extra profile sign-in or peripherals. This makes it a very welcoming and social experience, but it's not without a few barriers.
Firstly, you need space to stand up and move around without bumping into things. Many moves require side-to-side or front-to-back movement, and though you can tone your own movements down to take up less room, you still need more than a few square feet. Secondly, you need to be willing to sweat. Dance Central is an aerobic game that engages your whole body and will likely elevate your heart rate. Some may consider this (and the optional calorie counter) a benefit, while others may not be up for it. Performing more than a few songs in a row is definitely an athletic activity, which makes social Dance Central gatherings somewhat less casual than those featuring other rhythm games.
Anyone who has played other rhythm games will be familiar with the scoring system in Dance Central. You earn points for busting moves correctly, and your overall performance is graded on a five-star scale. The Kinect tracks your whole body very well, covering a diverse range of motion, and the game even gives you partial credit for moves you don't completely nail. You also get some helpful feedback from the dancer you are mirroring: If one or more of the dancer's body parts flash red, you know that part of your body is out of sync. Dance Central strikes a nice balance by tracking you closely enough to make it rewarding to nail a move, but not so closely that one errant hip sway is going to ruin your routine.

Guy kicked my c4
Like (0)
Im not looking for subs or likes, so please dont. But should this c4 have killed the guy? If not, is c4 kickable?WTF!
It just looks that way due to where you threw it, I've seen C4 bouncing of people before but never a foot. Looks quite funny though.
Its not funny, he punted it at me.
It was more of a shank, I wouldn't think anyone at the NFL will be snapping him up
Crappy luck, but C4 bounces when it hits people. I thought that was common knowledge lol By the time it blew up it was too far to kill.
Bouncing is one thing, this looks like we're in space.
I've bounced C4s off of people's heads and blew them up. Funny stuff.
Maybe that was Pele you were playing against.
Thank god there was a wall there, no telling where that might have ended up in orbit
Wow, didn't know it would do that. On a related note... you know what else bounces off people? Ballestic vests. I had run out of ammo in a game and was looking for a gun to pick up when I came across a guy, I was too far away to knife so I tried to drop the sentry gun I had down to kill him with it.... except that I had forgotten that I had picked up a balistic vest care package for some stupid reason (is there a more worthless care package?)... so there I was, dodging and weaving with the stupid vests in my hand... couldn't knife then... so I threw them at him! They totally bounced off him.... and then he shot me dead. I laughed for like 5 solid minutes after that... if only it had been in the final kill cam for other people to see how comical it was. Good times... good times...
Did you record it?
I do run theater mode and record but don't "save' them... wish I had because it was hilarious. I have to figure out how to get the recorded stuff off of my xbox...
Why not run theatre mode. The myth about it causing lag is just that.
I use it to watch how I attack certain drop zones, particularly the first drop on many maps. Getting a lead out of the first zone leads to a win the vast majority of the time.
I've about perfected my frag grenade toss points and many times can get first blood with a grenade toss before the other team can even reach the zone. I also watch aim points for where RPGs hit in certain drops... people tend to post up the same spots in certain zones so I know where to aim and shoot even if I can't see them in those spots per se. it's a great tool to sharpen your tactics.
It would've been pretty funny if he kicked it back at you and you killed yourself lol. That is pretty ridiculous though... C4 sticks to walls, so it should stick to people. On the topic of sticking to people.. how does a semtex grenade stick to someone, but it doesn't stick to your hand? I've always wondered that...
If he kicked it back and killed me I would have been even more upset. I dont know how semtexs could be sticky only after throwing. Im assuming theyre sticky from tar, like a sticky bomb. Pretty dumb if you think of it. Guessing they just wanted to copy halo.

I completely agree, neither of those situations make sense but then again many things in this game don't.
You wanna see a kick?
The 2nd part was awesome.
The guy's got hops.
Ok, these are kinda funny, but its not even the right game. F Black Ops. Hated that POC game except for its pretty guns and emblems.
No problem. Here's a good MW3 one.
"You just don't turn it off!!!!!"
Perfect line for that clip!
And just to prove your point about Black Ops.
who hasn't shot the wall with a launcher and killed themselves trying to use it for CQC? It happens..

Reflections from my adult daughter by Kendall Parkhurst My mom is one of my closest friends. So is my sister, Lindsay, and now, my sister-in-law, Alexandra. A day rarely passes that we don't check in by texting or talking. Some of my girlfriends tell me they wish they had a sister or mom they could be "friends" with. So I don't take these friendships for granted. I attribute much of this bond to my parents' intentional focus on family fun growing up. I have to admit we did plenty of things that didn't seem like fun. Like long rides in the back seat of a car to visit my grandparents. When three siblings sat squished together, touching and bugging each other, we were forced to work things out. Now I see how those times imprinted on me the importance of navigating conflict and appreciating togetherness with my siblings so we could have close relationships and enjoy each other both then and now. Even though those experiences didn't get classified as "fun," in their own odd way, they made some good memories. Our family value of fun has influenced many memories since then. Even now as adults, married with nine children among us and living in the same area, we often end up spending impromptu weekend nights together with food, laughter and cousins. And each summer, usually around the 4th of July, we try to plan a long weekend together somewhere in the mountains where we can stay in the same place and have fun! But last summer, it didn't seem like it was going to work because of schedules, the expense, plus Alexandra was in the final weeks of her fourth pregnancy! I think my mom kind of gave up on the possibility, so it was us — the kids — who came up with the perfect alternative: a three-day stay-cation at their house! We got into the planning, and even though we are normally an anti-cheesy family, we went over the top, and loved it. We had a printed itinerary with activities and themes for each day: Family Olympics and obstacle course. Tie-dye stay-cation T-shirts. Camping, spa, s'mores, karaoke, a babysitter (so the adults could go out to dinner one night). Pool day and a hike. It wasn't perfect. Too hot one day. Too mosquito-ey one night. Cranky kids sometimes. But we made the most of it. And now we have a new supply of fun memories and stories.
Kendall Parkhurst, our youngest, is married to David and mother of two, ages 3 and 1.

text: Air Force insiders foresaw F-22 woes Share this story email Share this story «Previous 1 of 11 Photos Next » Read the story «Previous Next » « » Japan US Stealth Fighter FILE - In this July 31, 2012 file photo, a pilot's outfit is displayed during a news conference at the Pentagon in Washington to provide an update on the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board study into life support systems installed on the F-22 and operations. The U.S. is hoping a dozen F-22 stealth fighters now roaring through the skies of southern Japan will prove its most prized combat aircraft is finally ready to resume full operations after years of investigations into why its pilots were getting dizzy and disoriented. But questions remain over whether the Air Force has taken enough action to fix a potentially bigger problem - the shriveling of programs to test cockpit life support systems after nearly 20 years of budget cuts, downsizing and outsourcing.
