...that after Parker Brothers executives turned down the game of Monopoly because it had "52 fundamental errors" (including taking too long to play), a copy of the game wound up in the home of the company president who stayed up until 1 a.m. to finish playing it? He was so impressed by the game that the next day he wrote to inventor Charles Darrow and offered to buy it!

| UpdatedPrime Minister Tony Abbott has tried to discredit a group of asylum seekers who allege they were mistreated by the Navy, by claiming they were attempting to break Australian law.
"Do you believe Australian naval personnel or do you believe people who are attempting to break Australian law? I trust Australia's naval personnel," he said.
Fact Check investigates whether asylum seekers who come to Australia are attempting to break Australian law.

| UpdatedThe South Australian Liberals have formed an unusual alliance with the Greens and Family First to provide volunteer firefighters the same access to cancer compensation as career firefighters.
The State Government's scheme introduced last year means MFS firefighters who contract certain forms of cancer are automatically presumed to have contracted the disease through their work.

The next federal election is still years away, but the PM and Opposition Leader are already trading blows on who will win.

| UpdatedBoth parties are riven by internal disputes that have less to do with policy differences (that is, visions for how to make the country better) than with factional power.
Nothing has done more to undermine the credibility of the Labor party than these so-called "leadership" battles.
Major factional battles exist within the Coalition too, and they are driven by the same malaise: a disconnect from the electorate at large and an inability to articulate a vision of the national good outside their own obsessions.

| UpdatedThe State Opposition has pledged to set up the new position of Regulations Reduction Coordinator if it wins government.
The job would be based in Launceston and would help implement the Opposition's promise to reduce red and green tape by 20 per cent.
The Opposition leader Will Hodgman says the Coordinator would audit all government regulations, talk to businesses and identify where cuts need to be made.

| UpdatedWhile often portrayed in more simplistic terms, as promises kept or broken, the compact sealed between Australian voters and the government they have installed is more fundamentally about the expectations of what values and principles will be upheld.
By confusing the two, political observers run the risk of misunderstanding which of the Abbott Government's "broken promises" will be ignored or forgiven and which could be politically toxic.
So far Tony Abbott has been much more strategic than his predecessors, creating expectations in broad brush strokes that give him a lot more room to move, including the occasional backdown on promises and commitments.

| UpdatedSpeculation is growing within the Tasmanian Labor Party that a state election could be called within days.
It comes as Greens leader Nick McKim admits he does not know if he will still be a minister this time next week.
The Premier has been pressured by a majority of caucus to sever ties with the minority party before the next state poll.
There is talk of that happening next week, with Lara Giddings tipped to announce the election date at the same time.

| UpdatedFederal Opposition Leader Bill Shorten says as a stepfather he is offended by Liberal Senator Cory Bernardi's comments about "non-traditional families".
Senator Bernardi has written a book that says families with a single parent are more likely to have higher criminality among boys and promiscuity among girls.
Mr Shorten is a stepfather and says so-called "non-traditional" families work hard to provide a loving environment for their children.
"There are hundreds of thousands of Australian children who thrive in loving stepfamilies, blended families or in families with a single parent," Mr Shorten said.
"On what basis is Senator Bernardi suggesting these children are more likely to be criminal - or is it just his own out-of-date prejudices?"

| UpdatedLiberal Senator Cory Bernardi says abortion is being used as "an abhorrent form of birth control" and women who advocate pro-choice are "pro-death".
Senator Bernardi has made the comments in his new book, The Conservative Revolution, in which he also calls for more flexible industrial relations laws, including a return to individual workplace agreements whereby penalty rates can be negotiated away.
Senator Bernardi writes that it is "horrendous and unacceptable" that the abortion "death industry despatches 80,000 to 100,000 unborn children [in Australia] every year".
He also rails against non-traditional families, surrogacy and euthanasia and calls on fellow conservatives to help to reverse the trends in social acceptance of changing attitudes.
He sets out five founding pillars for a "conservative revolution", including restoring the traditional family model to what he says should be its "prime position" over other family types like step-families, same-sex and single families, as well as couples with children born via surrogacy.

SAN FRANCISCO -- A man accused of running a billion-dollar online drug bazaar known as Silk Road appeared briefly in federal court in San Francisco Friday, but at the request of his defense attorney, his detention hearing was postponed until next week.
Ross Ulbricht, 29, is accused in a criminal complaint in federal court in New York of three conspiracy counts of scheming to distribute illegal drugs, hack computers and launder money.
Federal prosecutors allege the site brokered more than a billion dollars in drug sales.
But, sources tell ABC7 News reporter Vic Lee that Ulbricht claims his net worth is grossly exaggerated.
Ulbricht was arrested by undercover FBI agents in San Francisco's Glen Park branch library on Tuesday. Federal prosecutors are seeking to have him transferred to New York to face the charges.
Ulbricht is also charged in a separate federal indictment in Maryland with a similar count of narcotics conspiracy as well as soliciting an $80,000 murder-for-hire of a former Silk Road employee.
Both sets of charges against Ulbricht were unsealed on Wednesday after his initial court appearance before U.S. Magistrate Joseph Spero in San Francisco.
Ulbricht, wearing red jail garb, said nothing during the brief appearance before Spero Friday.
The detention hearing, which was postponed until next Wednesday, will determine whether he can be freed on bail while awaiting transfer proceedings.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Randall Luskey unsuccessfully sought to have the hearing conducted Friday.
Luskey told Spero that prosecutors believe there are "no assurances" that would guarantee Ulbricht would not flee if granted bail.
Luskey also said federal prosecutors in New York want to have Ulbricht moved there as quickly as possible.
But Spero granted the request for postponement after Assistant Federal Public Defender Brandon LeBlanc said he needed more time because it is a complex case. Ulbricht will remain in custody for the time being.
The murder-for-hire alleged in the Maryland indictment never happened because the supposed assassin whom Ulbricht hired online in January was an undercover FBI agent.
The intended victim was a former Silk Road employee who had been arrested. Ulbricht allegedly feared he would spill information about the website, according to the indictment.
Ulbricht is also accused in the New York complaint of soliciting a second murder-for-hire for $150,000 in March. That alleged murder attempt is not a separate charge, but rather cited as an alleged overt act to further the narcotics conspiracy.
The intended victim was a Canadian man who was attempting to extort $500,000 from Ulbricht and the hitman allegedly hired online by Ulbricht was an unidentified Silk Road user. The FBI has said Canadian authorities have found no evidence that a slaying took place.
The FBI has alleged the website conducted $1.2 billion in sales of drugs, computer hacking software and other illegal items in two and one-half years, bringing Ulbricht $80 million in commissions.
FBI agent Christopher Tarbell wrote in an affidavit that the operation became "the most sophisticated and extensive criminal marketplace on the Internet today."
Ulbricht, a Texas native, moved to San Francisco last year.

UFC 131 Fight Card: Predictions You Can Take to the Bank
By Dwight Wakabayashi ,
UFC 131 goes down this coming Saturday night in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia, and will feature a headline heavyweight contender matchup between behemoths Junior "Cigano" Dos Santos and Shane "The Engineer" Carwin.
The beauty of mixed martial arts is that there are so many strategic ways to defeat an opponent if you have the skill set and the will to see it through. Clay Guida fights in contrast to Shane Carwin fights are an example that there are many ways to fight and win, and in my mind, a true fight fan has a tiny appreciation for them all.
However, for those fans who like to see strategy take a back seat to a good old fashioned punch-up, you won't want to miss it when the bell rings on Dos Santos and Carwin.
Debating fights and predicting finishes is one of the best things to do in the week leading up to the event. The fighters are ready, the stage is set and here are my predictions you can take to the bank for this coming weekend.
Krzysztof Soszynski is 5-2 in the UFC and has fought some surprisingly recognizable fighters in his time in the promotion following his stint on TUF 8. He has beaten Brian Stann, Goran Reljic and Stephan Bonner, and after KSOS gets a solid win over Igor Pokrajac on June 11, expect him to get a big-name fight in his next fight this year,
I expect Soszynski to beat Pokrajac and would love to see him get Vladimir "The Janiitor" Matyushenko or Steve Cantwell next.
Donald Cerrone knows how to bring it at an exciting level. Whenever he steps inside the cage to fight, he has won one UFC "Fight Of The Night" bonus once as well as five in the WEC in his career.
Cerrone was set to face Mac Danzig at UFC 131, but Danzig was forced to pull out late due to a chest injury and has been replaced by Brazilian submission artist Vagner Rocha. While I have no doubt that Cerrone will beat Rocha in this fight, it will not be the most evenly matched fight on the card, and therefore, will leave "The Cowboy" short of another exciting bonus.
Mark Munoz is a tremendously powerful wrestler who can ground and pound you in to next week if he gets a takedown and top position on you. Demian Maia knows this and will be looking for submissions from his back if he happens to find himself on the bottom of Munoz on June 11.
Maia's submission game is top of the food chain in the UFC, best in the world, but I am predicting here that Munoz's power will come in handy in another area, and that is submission defense. He will keep moving and twisting his frame vs. Maia, negating any leverage he will get, and his strength will be too much for Maia to lock it in.
Munoz will then land a powerful shot on Maia, and the fight will be over in a mild upset.
Sam "Hands Of Stone" Stout is not a very popular guy in the UFC locker room and it has very little to do with his personality. Stout is a bonus hog and shares the UFC record for "Fight Of The Night" awards with Tyson Griffin at five.
Stout is a well known and feared striker with a strong chin, but if there is a weakness in Stout's game, it obviously comes when the fight hits the ground.
I believe Stout realizes if he wants to be considered with the best in the division, he needs to become more well rounded. He will show the improvement needed in his takedown defense and ground game, and that will keep the fight standing just enough for him to beat Edwards.
Kenny Florian is making his debut in the 145-pound division on June 11 vs. Diego Nunes, and it will be a statement fight for both of them. Florian will be looking to be agressive and dominate Nunes, and Nunes will be looking to make Kenny pay for overlooking him and already talking of a match with Jose Aldo.
This will make for fireworks and Fight Of The Night, with Florian's hand being the one raised when the smoke clears.
Junior Dos Santos has stated that he will knock out Shane Carwin on June 11 in Vancouver, but I believe that it will be the other way around. Both these men will swing hard and land right from the get-go, but I believe that Carwin's power is being overlooked by JDS, and his chin will be the one to pay the price for that error.
Cigano feels his punches are more technical and crisp and will land more often than his opponent's in the fight. While I agree with him, Carwin is not going to need to land as much, and the big shot he does land will change the fight in an instant.

Recent reviews:
November 28, 2013 - Very bright colours, longer than normal. Love it!
November 9, 2013 - Pattern very colorful but didn't read the description carefully as I didn't expect the fabric to be so satiny. Also the lanyard in not adjustable and is very long--really too long for wearing in the gym. Will probably give it away as a gift.
October 22, 2013 - This is a cheerful way to wear your I.D--soft and silky. Fun and colorful, as well. A real day brightener!
September 19, 2013 - Love my lanyard, just wish it was adjustable. Bright and pretty

HELENA, Mont.-- Subsidiaries of Johnson& Johnson have agreed to pay $5.9 million to settle a lawsuit with Montana over how an anti-psychotic drug was marketed, state Attorney General Tim Fox said Thursday.
BISMARCK, N.D.-- People have been caught nearly 150 times in the past year attempting to illegally dump loads of oil field waste _ much of it radioactive _ at two of the biggest landfills in western North Dakota, records obtained Wednesday by The Associated Press show.
HOUSTON, March 4- The controversial Keystone XL pipeline will receive President Obama' s blessing and be built to transport crude oil from Canada to Texas, TransCanada Corp Chief Executive Russ Girling predicted on Tuesday.
NEW YORK, Feb 28- Oil production in North Dakota's Bakken shale stayed flat in January after falling sharply the month before, according to independent data that illustrate how this winter's bitter cold put a freeze on the world's fastest-growing oil patches.
NEW YORK, Feb 27- What can you do if you deposited bitcoins at Mt. Unlike bank accounts in the United States, bitcoin deposits have no government-backed insurance.
SINGAPORE, Feb 26- The apparent collapse of Tokyo- based bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox isn't bothering Anthony Hope and others who have ditched steady careers in government and finance to build bitcoin companies- and who stand to lose money they have in Mt. Steve Beauregard, CEO and founder of Singapore- based GoCoin, is more blunt about Mt.
WASHINGTON, Feb 25- The Obama administration will look for ways the federal government could spur investment to improve infrastructure for transporting oil and natural gas supplies around the country, U.S.
LONDON, Feb 21- Personnel shortages at the U.S. Department of the Interior are causing delays in issuing oil and gas drilling permits as well as missed targets for important oversight work, according to a government performance audit.
Feb 19- A federal judge in Utah on Wednesday barred online television service provider Aereo from retransmitting programs in a handful of U.S. states, ahead of a closely watched Supreme Court hearing this year between the company and major broadcasters.
WASHINGTON/ MEXICO CITY, Feb 17- North America's three leaders will discuss a controversial pipeline project that would transport Canadian crude deep into the United States at a trade summit this week, Mexico's top diplomat said on Monday, adding he does not see it as a competitive threat.
WASHINGTON, Feb 13- Forty-two U.S. representatives and senators have announced plans to leave their seats in Congress in advance of mid-term elections in November, including 24 Republicans and 18 Democrats. The latest to announce his departure was Representative Doc Hastings, a 10- term Republican from Washington state.
WASHINGTON, Feb 11- Data thefts at U.S. retailers have rekindled enthusiasm in Congress for a single federal law on how customers should be notified about such breaches, but those efforts face the same roadblock as in the past: dozens of overlapping state laws already in place.
DETROIT, Feb 11- General Motors Co's new Chairman Theodore "Tim" Solso is not afraid to make edgy and sometimes unpopular decisions, a trait that could come in handy as the No. 1 U.S. automaker seeks to further reinvent itself under new Chief Executive Mary Barra.
NEW YORK, Feb 11- The view of the Pacific Ocean from the San Joaquin Hills in Newport Coast, California is extraordinary. That placed him in jumbo mortgage territory- above $625,500 in his part of the country, and above $417,000 in lower-priced areas.
In particular, the massive hydroelectric dams along the Columbia River and its tributaries in Washington, Oregon, Montana and Idaho are crucial suppliers of electricity to California via high-voltage transmission lines, known as paths.

Written on: 21/08/2013 by Thefolkster (1 review written)
I was amazed with the computer I received, with just a couple of upgrades with the graphics card (AMD/ATI RadeonHD 7770 1GB)and to the ram (8GB Corsair) it runs every game I throw at it with no lag at all, I can play Minecraft with a texture pack that is 256X256 with all the best settings(render distance etc.), and I can play Skyrim in ultra high graphics with about 10 graphic enhancers and it is still really smooth.
But not only was the computer great but the service I got from UKGC was truly brilliant, they kept me informed every single step of the way and when I had sent them an email of the warranty sticker I forgot to put my order number and instead of them just saying "nope, you can't have the warranty" they sent me an email back almost instantly just saying to send my order number which I was very pleased about.
So overall it is an amazing PC, an amazing service, and I will definitely recommend UKGC to everyone I know that is even slightly interested in gaming or just PC's themselves. Thanks UKGC!

Good point, but in a track title + thought this was quiet a famous song... I don't mean this in ANY wrong way, but I think we still have a LOOOONG way to go, before we even get a small percentage of all samples/covers there ever were/are, this is really extensive :D Is this one right: at 1:10 sounds so much like "until the, tic tac you don't stop/quit". And I have even heard replayed samples in other songs of this cough in Clear my throat (but even I think that's just reaching). STOP! Hammertime...
MrBlondNYC said 3 years ago:
No this is right. "Let me clear my throat" is not a common saying. Why wasn't it on here before? Not a lot of DJ Kool fanatics around I guess.
DJ Anubis said 3 years ago:
Is this too generic, cos I don't see why it wasn't on here before?

On the eve of 'Second Life' convention, Chicago gets griefed
CHICAGO, Ill.--They call it the Windy City, but I don't think travelers to this weekend's Second Life Community Convention in Chicago were expecting tornadoes to get in their way.
The Midwest was smacked with thunderstorms and flooding on Thursday, with winds in one storm hitting 70 miles per hour, and a tornado (albeit not a very big one) running amok and even entering the grounds of Chicago's O'Hare Airport.
I, for one, was scheduled to take a 4:25 flight out of New York's JFK Airport that would (allegedly) touch down at 6:15 … Read more

Occupy Wall Street: Alec Baldwin Visits the Protesters (Video)
The "30 Rock" star spent about 2 hours at the New York base on Tuesday night.
Alec Baldwin is the latest star to drop by the Occupy Wall Street protests for a visit. At about midnight on Tuesday, the 30 Rock actor spent two hours talking with demonstrators and explaining his own believes on the Federal Reserve and corporate corruption.
"My thanks 2 Aaron from Brooklyn and Sean from Winnipeg for this evening's OWS tutorial. My first. A lot of dedicated people at #ZuccottiPark," Baldwin wrote on his Twitter.
PHOTOS: The Scene at Occupy Wall Street
Baldwin is approached by a camera man, and at first he says he's not answering any questions, but then he answers some questions.
Baldwin is asked about his beliefs on the ending the Federal Reserve.
"I don't know what ending the Fed would ultimately mean for capital markets in this country. Because you have to have capital markets in the country," said Baldwin, who comes off well-spoken in the video.
PHOTOS: 10 Entertainers Democrats and Republicans Love to Hate
"I think most people want change in this country, but they don't want this country to go down the tubes," he said.
When one of the demonstrators starts lecturing Baldwin on what the Fed is, Baldwin asks him if he has an actual question. When the demonstrator says he was just making conversation, Baldwin says, "I'm aware of what the Fed is, I'm just saying that I'm not familiar with – I don't think anybody is really reasonably familiar with – what dismantling the Fed would do to financial markets."
STORY: Occupy Wall Street Protests Pose Unique Risk for Stars Who Get Involved
Baldwin isn't afraid to attempt to have a conversation with the protesters, even his detractors, during his visit. Baldwin asks one man, who seems to have been berating the actor with questions, what he actually wants from Baldwin. The man tells him he wants a verbal endorsement of Ron Paul. Baldwin tells him he won't do that, and says, as he did earlier, that he wants to learn more about how dismantling the Federal Reserve would affect the country.
The Occupy Wall Street protests, which seem to be a message against corporate greed and corruption, have had visits from several actors and filmmakers, including Susan Sarandon, Mark Ruffalo and Michael Moore.

All you need is a fabric headband in the color of your choice and a vintage (or vintage-inspired) brooch. For this particular version, we pinned a retro-style brooch to a black satin wraparound headband. Aside from this being an easy way to dress up your look, the best part is that the style is not permanent: remove the brooch and affix it to a jacket, scarf, or anything else that needs a little lift. Then hit up the consignment store for its new replacement.

Anthony Joshua Says He Won't Go Pro Yet; Wants To Win European, World Amateur Titles, Win More Gold In 2016
By James Slater: Retired heavyweight great Lennox Lewis, who saw an Olympic gold medal pave the way towards a sensational, mega-bucks pro career, said 22-year-old Anthony Joshua would be able to do the same as he did if he won Olympic gold at London 2012.
Well, Joshua did just that yesterday – with a controversial debatable points win over Italy's defending Olympic champ Roberto Cammarelle; winning the 18-18-scored bout via the countback rule (Cammarelle has disputed the result: "I still don't know why – even with the same score – I was the one to lose," the Italian told Telegraph Sport. "I thought they would see that I was superior in the fight. I don't know if my punch is invisible) – but he now says he has no plans to turn pro.
Speaking with the U.K media today (various sources), the super-heavyweight gold medallist says he "likes the sound of Rio 2016" and that he will look to gain more experience in the amateur ranks.
"This has never been about money," Joshua said. "I will stay amateur for as long as possible. I quite like the sound of Rio 2016. If fame comes I'm okay with it, but I don't want to be hyped up and made out to be something I'm not. I look at great amateur champions like Vasyl Lomachenko and how he just goes out there and gets the job done every time, and that's the kind of attitude I want to have.
"If Great Britain can keep this team together (with fellow Olympian success stories like Luke Campbell and Fred Evans also showing incredible talent), we could be incredibly strong in Rio in four years time. We are in a position where we could dominate amateur boxing over the next four years."
With all the money that could be made currently dangling in front of him (and rest assured, there will no doubt be a number of promoters calling Joshua up this week, trying to get his signature on a pro contract!), Joshua is showing amazing self discipline by sticking to his guns and opting to stay pro. And, as much as the heavyweight division of today would welcome with open arms a new star who can punch, Joshua has to be commended for deciding to stay amateur. And, as former Olympian Amir Khna has said, at age 22, Joshua has no need to rush. Come 2016, the 6'6" star will be still only 26: the same age Lewis turned pro at.
The money men want him now, but with TWO gold medals around his neck in 2016, Joshua's signature would be worth even more cash! And the anticipation of his pro career would be so much greater.
