We cannot fail at this point to emphasize that democracy is not just literature, or constitutional and legislative provisions. Democracy is a culture and practice, commitment to the rule of law, respect for the international principles of human rights, coupled with serious national political action that represents all spectrums of society without exclusion or quotas. In parallel with this crucial step that we take today, we call for other important steps to be made to reinforce the democratic culture and practice on the land of our beloved country. Furthermore, we call upon all segments of society—the community and the family—to work together to ensure that our young people respect the law. This is a responsibility that must be shouldered by all, especially when respect for the law is linked to the principles of coexistence, tolerance, harmony and love.
Protests and demonstrations in Bahrain [BBC backgrounder] have been ongoing since February 2011 [JURIST report]. Earlier this month, a Bahraini court on overturned the death sentences for two protesters convicted of killing two police officers during the demonstrations that took place in the country last year. The original conviction [JURIST report] was rendered by a special security court set up as part of the emergency law in place while the country's Sunni rulers attempted to silence a Shiite-led to effort bolster civil and political rights in the country. In December, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay said that the Bahrain government should release prisoners detained during peaceful protests [JURIST report] and focus on rebuilding national trust in the government. Pillay's statement followed a visit by a team of human rights officials to Bahrain at the invitation of the Bahrain government. In November, Al Khalifa ordered a special commission [JURIST report] to look into government recommendations made in a report by an independent Bahraini government commission. The report stated that Bahrain authorities used excessive force [JURIST report] and tortured detainees involved in the pro-democracy demonstrations earlier this year. Also in November, the Bahrain government admitted the use of excessive force [JURIST report] in anticipation of the independent report.

Getting Down Up In The Penthouse With The Hip Hop Dance Experience
Some of New York's most notable music personalities move and groove to the hit new video game.
One night at Gary's Penthouse in New York City a few weeks back, the city's most influential music bloggers and other notable industry figures were introduced to Ubisoft's new hit game, The Hip Hop Dance Experience. The event was a pretty sweet time, complete with the musical musings by DJ J. Period, soul food for the guests, and a number of game demo stations where they could burn off all that grub by getting down with one of the game's 30+ tracks. Notable attendees included former HipHopDX blogger/writer and 2DopeBoyz.com co-founder Meka, as well as brand ambassadors LowKey from Complex Media Network partner site YouHeardThatNew.com, Jeff and Eric Rosenthal from ItsTheReal.com, rapper Jean Grae, deejays Kast One and Envy.
The evening was hosted by two of our favorite radio personalities, Angela Yee from Power 105's Breakfast Club and Miss Info of Hot 97 FM. It was also captured on film, much to the delight or dismay of the evening's participants, depending on how awesome or awful their moves were. To check out all the good time boogieing that went down, be sure to watch the video here.
And if you're looking to get in on the Experience yourself, The Hip Hop Dance Experience is available for all on November 13, for both Xbox and Wii.

The faltering U.S. economy has led to more scrutiny of government spending. Foreign aid has come under attack from both budget hawks and even mayors who claim money should be spent on infrastructure in America and not Afghanistan. In fiscal year 2010, the U.S. international affairs budget was almost $57 billion. The number seems astounding, yet this is roughly 1 percent of the total U.S. budget. According to Oxfam America, Americans spend more money on pet care each year than the government forks out in foreign aid.
Foreign assistance dollars are used to help promote democracy and economic stability; to lift people out of poverty; for security and military assistance; and for counter-terrorism measures. U.S. commercial interests and national security also come into play. In 1948 the United States created its first major foreign aid program — the Marshall Plan — to help rebuild Europe's infrastructure and economy. Most countries outside of Western Europe, Canada and Australia are recipients of U.S. foreign aid, although some countries benefit more than others. Here are the top 10 recipients of United States foreign aid, based on fiscal year 2010 figures from the Congressional Research Service.

FORT EDWARD, N.Y. – Union members say they plan to picket at the General Electric plant in Fort Edward on Wednesday as the CEO, Jeffery Immelt arrives.
The 200 employees who may lose their jobs when the plant closed to move to Clearwater, Florida, are fighting the closure. The plant is scheduled to close in September 2014.
The employees, who are union members of United Electrical, Radio and Machine Works of America Local 332, will be in front of Rutland's Paramount Theater at 4:30 p.m. as the CEO will prepare to speak at 5 p.m.
GE officials have told NEWS10 ABC that the move to Florida will lessen costs on the business. This proposed closure is also subject to a 60-day decision bargaining period between GE and the union. During this time, the company will consider alternative proposals. If the company would move forward with closing the plant, 178 hourly workers and 20 salaried employees would be affected.
The first meeting between UE Local 332 and GE took place on September 26 at the Fort Edward plant.

SEVASTOPOL, Ukraine—Dozens of military trucks transporting heavily armed soldiers rumbled over Crimea's rutted roads on Saturday as Russia reinforced its armed presence on the disputed peninsula in the Black Sea. Moscow's foreign minister ruled out any dialogue with Ukraine's new authorities, whom he dismissed as the puppets of extremists.
The country's tax-to-gross domestic product (GDP) ratio has improved to 13.3 percent in 2013, compared to 12.9 percent in 2012, as the collections by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) and the Bureau of Customs (BOC) also improved.

SIS. Gloria V. Felix was only 15, intelligent and lovely, when she joined the Daughters of Saint Paul. She was that young when she and a fellow nun were selling prints of the Holy Family calendar in the Port Area, when a Customs officer teased her, "May gatas ka pa sa labi, madre ka na [You still have milk on your lips, and you are already a nun]," to which the street-smart young sister answered back with a disarming rejoinder: "Hindi kasi tayo nagkita kaagad [Because we did not meet immediately]."
DAVAO City has always been one of my favorite destinations ever since I started going there in the late 1980s.
When Ambassador Akinyemi Farounbi of Nigeria went on a trip to Iloilo for the Dinagyang Festival, he had a moment of realization. He thought maybe the reason Filipinos and Nigerians have such great chemistry is because Filipinos are actually from Nigeria. In fact, he says that in some parts of his country, especially in southern Nigeria, the people could easily pass themselves off as Filipinos. They are not as dark skinned as most Africans are.
It is generally accepted that for most, if not all professions—whether it be law, medicine, engineering or whatever—its practitioners must be committed to continually learning in order to maintain or even enhance whatever initial success they have already achieved. This is especially true in public relations, both as far as content or messaging and the medium or tools and techniques, are concerned.
Biotech crops are gaining a headway in the Philippines, with a total of 795,000 hectares devoted to growing them last year, representing an expansion of more than 6 percent.
Globally, biotech crops are grown by 18 million farmers in 175.2 million hectares of land spread in 27 countries.
IN addition to landmark hotel and entertainment centers and prime office and residential developments, two international schools will be further accelerating the growth of Aseana City, a booming mixed-use business district distinguished by its strategic location fronting the Manila Bay near the Mall of Asia complex.
'It's simple math," the strategist said in a tone that sounded suspiciously similar to how I explain things to my 6-year-old daughter. "Decreasing churn by a percent—a single percent!—creates tens of millions of dollars of value. A point of market share creates five times that amount. Our growth investments are years from providing that kind of return."
THE country's level of proficiency in Mathematics has vastly improved, as students are being encouraged to love the subject in the hope of developing experts in various professions.
Teresita Comia, a Filipino mother of seven, is a plain housewife who usually spends her time preparing food for her children, raising chicken, doing household chores and maintaining a vegetable garden: her routine since her husband left to work abroad.
The growth of large online investment platforms has captured the attention of Chinese authorities in recent months. Non-state enterprises such as Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., which runs the e-commerce website Taobao, and Tencent Holdings Ltd., a social-media conglomerate that runs the popular WeChat online messaging program, are an emerging force in China's financial system.
THE recently concluded Toyota Vios Cup held at the Clark International Speedway (CIS) truly proved that Filipinos are not strangers to motorsports.

IN the second part of the Canon of the Mass, seven names of women saints are honored and invoked: Perpetua, Felicitas, Agatha, Lucy, Agnes, Cecilia and Anastacia.
EVEN to the most dedicated person, going to the gym three to five times a week to work out could become a boring routine that will eventually make him or her skip a session. Some may even resort to just cutting down on carbs and doing a couple of push-ups and crunches at home, which, truth be told, does not really give us the fitness we need.

It's utterly absurd, the 8 million per win(or 9). You're telling me in true dollars Joe Mauer is a 40-45 million dollar player? Or on the opposite end that Alexi Casilla would fetch 8 million a year on the open market. That 8-9 million dollar figure has been looked at with pretty extreme skepticism.
Not to mention your narrative just doesn't fit. Why would the Diamondbacks decline a reasonable ~4 million option on Matt Lindstrom when @ the 9 million a year figure he'd actually be worth closer to 6. Then lets examine the facts from last year. Taking a nice three year WAR average the vast majority of RP averaged nearer to the commonly quoted 5 million a year then that 9 million figure. Pretty much everyone except Valverde(exercised option) and Papelbon(early FA signing). After that there was value to be had. It's pretty clear the League contract is a significant overpay.
I think one of the bigger flaws in determining the cost of the win from a relief pitcher standpoint is the super volatile nature of all but the best relievers.
I'm not saying that, the president of a major league baseball team who is statistically inclined is saying that. As he mentioned in his interview, his office has run all the studies.Quote:
It's utterly absurd, the 8 million per win(or 9). You're telling me in true dollars...
Of course, as I mentioned, this does not mean that all teams will abide by that pay scale. In the case of the Dodgers, they must have projected that League would fare well in his next three years and compared it to the thin crop of consistent relievers and decided to pay him on that scale. If $9 million, like Sharpiro said, is the actually cost for a win and League performs on par with his prior performances, he will be "worth" that in the end.Quote:
Not to mention your narrative just doesn't fit. Why would the Diamondbacks...
The D'Backs, on the other hand, may have had other plans to spend that kind of money or similar not use the WAR value in that kind of capacity when valuating talent. The Twins, Rays, etc, will certainly not work on that level but it doesn't mean the Dodgers, Yankees, Red Sox, Phillies, Rangers are not working with those dollars.
Last, one of the reasons that the past contracts (particularly the long-term ones) likely do not match that $8-9M range is because of what Sharpiro said. Players performances tend to decline over the course of a contract and it is likely that teams would adjust their AAV to match that decline.
In the end, while League's contract may wind up being on the higher end of the spectrum this year, I believe you are going to see larger contracts and dollars going towards relievers than previously anticipated.
It's one of the reasons I commend the Twins front office for not getting involved in signing free agent relief pitchers to long-term deals.Quote:
I think one of the bigger flaws in determining the cost of the win from a relief pitcher standpoint is the super volatile nature of all but the best relievers.
when i read this article, all i could think about was how the twins could exploit this annually by flipping relievers when they're out of contention. to me, the relief market is the key to a small market (or medium market) team building assets, whether it be by trading for prospects or acquiring picks via free agency.
You can view the page at http://www.twinsdaily.com/content.ph...-pitching&
Call me old school, but overpaying for relievers seems foolish and stupid. I'm all in favor of getting some hard throwing relievers for late innings, but those can be added cheaply via draft and free agent scrap heap signings.
So this must make the Twins genius's for picking an army of RP'ers?
I'm not sure I'm buying the whole article though. The data point is League and he was signed by a team that has shown it's basically willing to light money on fire if it feels like it. I also don't really understand this 8-9M/win number that they are throwing out there. Fangraphs has been using 4-5M/win which seems much more reasonable. Greinke is a 5 WAR pitcher and he'll probably get 20M/year. 8-9M/win suggests that Greinke should get paid 40-45M/yr this offseason.
Again, that's the Indians assessment of the market so it's possible that they are viewing it incorrectly. But the fact is MLB revenue streams have been increasing (the MLBAM payouts, the broadcast rights, etc) and therefore each incremental win for a team is likely now worth more than when Fangraphs first created the "value" statistic. Teams now have more money to use to purchase this win. This then drives the free agent market higher each off-season. (By the way, a great read on this subject is "Diamond Dollars" by Vince Generro).Quote:
Fangraphs has been using 4-5M/win which seems much more reasonable. Greinke is a 5 WAR pitcher and he'll probably get 20M/year. 8-9M/win suggests that Greinke should get paid 40-45M/yr this offseason.
I believe the top of the class free agents will likely get close to the $9M per win per year (or a variation of that). Also, as I mentioned above and as Sharpiro was getting at, is that the 8-9M/win is not applicable to the long-term deal as they take in account a player's declining skills as well. So, it's possible that if you were to sign Greinke to a one-year only deal, he's value would likely be $40-45 million, but over the course of 6, 7, 8 years, the team is projecting diminishing returns and adjusts the AAV accordingly.
Finally, as I mentioned, not all teams abide by that rules and that's where the notion of market inefficiencies exist. Players who are difficult to project because of injuries, lack of playing time, etc, present an opportunity for team like the Twins to acquire them at a below market rate -- like was the case of Josh Willingham whose age, injury history and defensive liability gave the Twins significant performance at a below market rate.

The masterplan creates a new lateral route through the campus in the form of a generous landscaped pedestrian boulevard that links two bodies of water at opposite sides of the site, drawing the theme of nature through the area and providing a focus for leisure activities. International House and the Amenities Building house faculties and teaching rooms and catering and fitness facilities respectively, and are sited in the western academic zone of the campus. These structures rise from the ground plane like natural landforms, an effect heightened by their cladding system which consists of terracotta tiles arranged in bands like geological strata. A third structure, the rounded, metallic shingle-clad Gateway building, houses a range of facilities for new businesses, and straddles the main campus road to link the two halves of the site.

The little brother of the Vintage 30. Need we say more?
This 10" 60W ceramic magnet speaker has been voiced to produce the unmistakable Celestion vintage tones. Pushed hard it has plenty of growl and performs with very solid bass, muscular mids, and an extremely articulate top end. In addition, the G10 Vintage employs a 1.75" round copper voice coil, has a frequency range of 100-5500Hz, and sensitivity of 97dB (1W @ 1m). Golden sand finish.
The G10 Vintage is the natural evolution of the well-respected Vintage 10. Closer to the sound of the Vintage 30 than its predecessor, the G10 Vintage still maintains a distinctive tonal flavor of its own. All of these speakers use the same voice coil designs and similar ceramic magnet structures to achieve their familiar, hard-rocking Celestion sound.
Upgrade your 2x10 or 4x10 and get that sought-after Vintage Celestion tone. Order now!

Comments about Celestion G10 Vintage 60W, 10" Guitar Speaker:
The stock speakers in my amp lacked the crunch and breakup i was looking for, so I replaced it with a couple of these babies. Long story short, this is exactly what the doctor ordered. Lots of upper midrange crunch without a harsh top end, and tight, tight bass. Single notes seem thicker and fuller. This speaker is definitely on the aggressive side- but don't be intimidated. It's the in-your-face, ballsy sound you've heard countless times over on classic hard rock recordings. VERY pleased.
Comments about Celestion G10 Vintage 60W, 10" Guitar Speaker:
I bought 4 of these Celestion G10 Vintage speakers to put in my Peavey Classic 50 4x10. The stock Blue Marvel speakers sounded good on clean tones, but were harsh and congested sounding on overdriven tones. So I was hoping to get good non-harsh clear top end sizzle with these speakers because that's what I get with Celestion Vintage 30s (which I use with my Marshalls and my Peavey Classic 30). I am very pleased to say I'm 100% satisfied with the results. With overdrive tones I get a very clear crisp sound, yet with lots of good midrange growl and deep tight bass. I highly recommend these speakers to anyone who is needing 10s.
Comments about Celestion G10 Vintage 60W, 10" Guitar Speaker:
This was possibly the single biggest change in performance of the modest SCXD. It sound like a 12" vintage 30 with a bit more bite at the top end. Its a great speaker. Handles plenty of wattage for any small combo. I would highly recommend this if you have a Super Champ!
Comments about Celestion G10 Vintage 60W, 10" Guitar Speaker:
I purchased this vintage 10 for my Fender Sidekick Reverb 25 amp. It's old but still kicks so good I blew out the original speaker. So this was a replacement. I immediately noticed the volume increase...LOUD! A little thin on bass but cranks out some good Blues tones with treble turned down low, mids and bass up high. Overall I love the tone and it is a GREAT replacement speaker over the original Fender speaker.
Comments about Celestion G10 Vintage 60W, 10" Guitar Speaker:
I have been debating for the past few months on whether I should spend money on a speaker upgrade for my Fender Super Champ XD. Almost every review I saw suggested pairing the Super Champ XD with the Ragin Cajun, so I set out to a local guitar store to get one.Unfortunately, they did not have one in stock but suggested that I try the Celestion G10 Vintage instead. I decided to get it just to be different and whoa!!! Definitely a great choice for this amp.Less than 10 minutes of installation and I was able to enjoy a much louder and more fuller sounding Super Champ XD. The amp also seemed to handle more gain from my pedals better. The only downside is that my amp is just a bit heavier now.
Comments about Celestion G10 Vintage 60W, 10" Guitar Speaker:
I put one of these in my Fender Super Champ XD.I wanted to put a Vintage 30 in but there isn't enough room. I LOVE the sound that this little baby can produce! It did color some of the amp modeling but I turn down my guitar volume to keep it from breaking up too quickly.If you like that crunchy rock or blues sound, and only have room in your combo amp for a 10" speaker this is the one.

NKorea rocket launch shows young leader as gambler
PYONGYANG, North Korea — A triumphant North Korea staged a mass rally of soldiers and civilians Friday to glorify the country's young ruler, who took a big gamble this week in sending a satellite into orbit in defiance of international warnings.
Wednesday's rocket launch came just eight months after a similar attempt ended in an embarrassing public failure, and just under a year after Kim Jong Un inherited power following his father's death.
The surprising success of the launch may have earned Kim global condemnation, but at home the gamble paid off, at least in the short term. To his people, it made the 20-something Kim appear powerful, capable and determined in the face of foreign adversaries.
Tens of thousands of North Koreans, packed into snowy Kim Il Sung Square, clenched their fists in a unified show of resolve as a military band tooted horns and pounded on drums.
Huge red banners positioned in the square called on North Koreans to defend Kim Jong Un with their lives. They also paid homage to Kim Jong Un's father, Kim Jong Il, and his grandfather, North Korean founder Kim Il Sung.
Pyongyang says the rocket put a crop and weather monitoring satellite into orbit. Much of the rest of the world sees it as a thinly disguised test of banned long-range missile technology. It could bring a fresh round of U.N. sanctions that would increase his country's international isolation. At the same time, the success of the launch could strengthen North Korea's military, the only entity that poses a potential threat to Kim's rule.
The launch's success, 14 years after North Korea's first attempt, shows more than a little of the gambling spirit in the third Kim to rule North Korea since it became a country in 1948.
"North Korean officials will long be touting Kim Jong Un as a gutsy leader" who commanded the rocket launch despite being new to the job and young, said Kim Byung-ro, a North Korea specialist at Seoul National University in South Korea.
The propaganda machinery churned into action early Friday, with state media detailing how Kim Jong Un issued the order to fire off the rocket just days after scientists fretted over technical issues, ignoring the chorus of warnings from Washington to Moscow against a move likely to invite more sanctions.

After the transmogrification hype died down a bit, I strolled over to my local auction house on the Horde side. I was doing my normal daily scan of items to flip, when I came across the Shields up for bid/buyout. My mouth almost dropped when I saw a Skullflame Shield up for 25,000 gold! I remember selling this same shield before Cata for maybe 5000 gold at the most. I went to check the rest of the shields and saw low level shields going for slightly more than what their stats and levels would otherwise dictate. I realized that the transmog die hards viewed shields as a major transmog piece of gear due to their instant transformation from mehville to coolsville. I went to my own bank on my horde toon and realized I had a large amount of shields (both twink and non-twink) that might net me some profit. Excitedly, I went to the Undermine Journal and started looking up the prices on each shield for my realm and faction. I had collected around 50 shields from dungeons, auction house deals, etc. I found that I had a pretty nice collection that I could put up on the auction house for transmog purposes. I put up maybe 10 of my 50 shields to see if I could get any bites. I logged off for the night.
The next day after breakfast, I leisurely logged on to my horde to do his daily fishing/cooking quests when I noticed I had mail. I checked my mail and to my delight, I had sold 9 of the 10 shields I put up in the auction house the night before. I netted around 5000 gold on these shields! I proceeded to put up 5 more shields and within two days, I sold all 6 of the shields. I have been doing this for around two months and would like to share my own personal Top 5 Shields for transmog to sell on the auction house. All 5 of these shields are based on my personal preference and profit as well. Please keep in mind that these prices are tentative based on each realm's supply and demand.
Probably one of if not the best looking shield in the game as of now. This skull spews fire from around it making it very easy to identify on any toon's back or arm. This shield can command anywhere from 20k-50k on the auction house. This shield is a rare drop from 55-61 level mobs. Although, you can farm Mana-Tombs Heroic for a similar shield: The Fel Barrier which has around a 25-30% drop rate (Nexus Prince Shaffar can drop this shield), interest in the Skullflame shield is still high at the auction house.
This is another rare and cool looking shield with a moving circular motion inside the shield. This shield has been sold on my realm for close to 15k. It can drop from any level 75-80 mob. There is an alternative to this shield: Stormshield Renewal which is a 12-15% drop from The Black Stalker in the Underbog Heroic dungeon. Once again, farming is something most don't enjoy doing, so they will go to the auction house and spend the gold instead.
A very nice and world drop that has been peaking on my server's auction house lately and has a unique look. This shield sold for 5k. It can drop from almost any level 60-70 mob. This shield has a nice pulsating light emitting from the middle of it.
A very nice world drop shield with a unique symbol and shape to it. This shield has gone for 3k-4k on my realm. It can drop from almost any Cataclysm mob. The shield has also been known to be found in silken treasure chests as well.
Last but most definitely not least is a rare drop from Beth'tilac (The Red Widow) boss in Firelands comes a nice shield which as commanded around 15k-20k gold on my realm. This shield is a very unique one with a wicked design. The drop rate has been rumored to be around 1%.
Honorable Mentions:
Troll Protector – A very simple wooden shield with a cool design on it.
Aegis of Stormwind – A nice light blue shield which looks like Alliance should wield it.
Garrett Family Crest – A nice red shield that might look better for a Horde toon.
Mountainside Buckler – A nice triangle shaped shield which is glimmering and shiny.
The Green Tower – A simple rectangular shaped shield that is…you guessed it..green.

There's an hour of music for far-off places on this New Sounds program. Listen to a work written by Princeton professor Paul Lansky, called "Travel Diary." From a new recording by the Meehan/Perkins Duo, the work is a "kind of meditation on travel particularly for those who don't do it that much." Parts were inspired by an actual cross-country trip taken by the composer and his family, wrong turns and a younger child asking "Are we there yet?"
There's also music from Dutch composer Louis Andriessen that he wrote for Bang on a Can, along with music from American composer Philip Corner from the New Sounds Live archives. Plus, music from Nico Muhly - a musical depiction of Balinese-style gamelan music and more.

The wait for Katy Perry's new album Prism is finally over!
The "Roar" singer's album dropped today and although we've been anxiously awaiting it's release, Katy herself may have been even more eager for fans to hear it.
Katy tells On Air with Ryan Seacrest she couldn't wait to release the new tracks as "it's time for me to kind of show where I'm at with my music and with the sound and with the perspective on lyrics and stuff."
Adding: "I'm excited to show my cards again … and they are new and improved."
And with songs like "Ghost" and "By The Grace of God", Katy wasn't lying when she said it's time to reveal to fans her new perspectives.
Download Prism on iTunes here. And to catch Katy up close and personal, tune in to the live stream of The iHeartRadio Album Release Party with Katy Perry tonight at 9PM ET/ 6PM PT here. And if you can't catch the live stream, tune in to The CW Friday night when it re-airs.

- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 4. Butter and line a 20 x 30cm Swiss roll tin. Whisk the yolks and sugar together until thick, then fold in the chestnut purée.
- Whisk the whites into stiff peaks, then fold into the chestnut mixture. Pour in the greased tin and cook for 40 mins.
- Cool for 5 mins, then cover with a damp tea towel and leave for an hour. Meanwhile, make your cream. Simply add the Disaronno to the double cream and whisk until thick and spreadable.
- Take a big piece of greaseproof paper and sprinkle generously with icing sugar. Turn the roulade out onto the paper, spread the cream on and carefully roll it up tightly, starting with one of the short edges and using the paper to help. Don't worry if it cracks – it's part of the charm. The roulade can be made several hours ahead - just keep it somewhere cool.

Did a practice run of this in preparation for a gluten free dinner party. It is really lovely. My oven is a bit unpredictable and I think the sponge could have done with a bit longer as I had real trouble peeling off the grease-proof paper. Also I think there was a little too much cream filling - I think I will put in less cream next time and offer the remainder on the side. The flavours are divine.

KrissX Xbox 360 Review X�0X�0 BOOKMOBI� � � 6 L Lo L� | MOBI � ��!a� ���������������������������������������� $ @ ���� EXTH , d i Xbox 360 Games KrissX Xbox 360 Review
It took me a few minutes to get that KrissX is supposed to be pronounced "criss-cross" and not "Chris Ex". But stupid name aside, Konami's new Xbox Live Arcade puzzle game is an original, but not very exciting little download.
KrissX is essentially the lovechild of the crossword puzzle and the jumble. Scrambled, intersecting words are displayed and players have to unscramble them by swapping letters around. Usually one swap is all it takes. It's a simple concept that is easy to get into. The letters that intersect each other are anchored in, so players can use them as context clues for the bigger words. There are multiple modes, including a Time Attack mode that has players go one word at a time with only a few seconds to solve each one.
Unfortunately the game is overly simple in the beginning. It's full of five letter words that only have one letter off. When you select the word the game gives you a definition hint, which further takes away any challenge. The later levels start to get challenging and bigger, but I was nearly a third of the way through before it ever felt like a real puzzle. There are 150 levels, which sounds like a lot, but it took me about five minutes to get through 30 of them. And even by level 30 I was seeing repeat words.
The backdrop for the game is a bright and colorful meadow, to accompany the owl character that acts as your guide. There are extra little score bonuses that pop up throughout and the game cheers you on the whole way. It gives the game a very PopCap feel, which is likely the intent. It's cute and charming, more so than most puzzle games in the Arcade.
KrissX is sorely lacking mutliplayer. Even with the additional modes and special puzzles, the game still feels bare bones. Some sort of online component, or even local multiplayer would have worked wonders for the game, especially since there's a focus on completing puzzles quickly.
Closing Comments
Word puzzle enthusiasts may be drawn in by the concept of KrissX, and PopCap fans may be fooled by the similar presentation style, but the lack of challenge and depth makes the game lackluster. Itâd be like recommending a cereal box crossword to a New York Times crossword fanatic. Maybe Konami will release some sort of Ultimate edition with more challenge. KrissX is cute, and itâs fun, it just needs to be more of a challenge to become relevant.

Album Rating: 5.0I couldn't see it being a 5 before I listened. Not a fan of the band at all in the past really. In fact chose the album to review for another site a few weeks ago precisely so I could say how overrated I thought they were. This is incredible though.

Can't wait to hear this. Tides is the best they have done so far, hopefully this will come close.

Digging: Emancipator - Soon It Will Be Cold Enough
Album Rating: 5.0@ BallsToTheWall: Nah, the reason it's actually so amazing is because it isn't "real metal". If it was it would be half as atmospheric, half as heavy and less than half as interesting. Not surprised it's dividing opinions but I would say it's not necessarily an immediate record. I went through a patch where I thought it was wearing off on me after having had it for a couple of weeks but then I took a break from it and after starting to listen again just realised I thought it was even better.
Wow 5 gotta check ... album title is cool : )

Perfect size tongs for little appetizer trays around the holidays or any party throughout the year. You can never too many tongs laying around the kitchen. =)
Patricia C. Posted on 05/31/2012
The product is priced very well. It's durable and good looking, unlike some who looks cheap. This product does well in almost all type of products, from picking breads and bagels, from the salad and fruit bar in a buffet and much more better use. It is easy to grip and does not require a hard squeeze to grab food. For super low price, I will use that for catering and buffet service!
Wendy Z. Posted on 10/23/2011
Nice to use on relish and food trays, they keep their grip, easy clean up and adds to the presentations either on relish, fruit or vegetable trays, I also used it in the salad bar and it kept the pristine look & presentation, Thank you for the high quality items!!!

Mistress Morwenna Westerne resides in the Barony of Carolingia.
Although improper for a well-brought up Elizabethan lady, she enjoys acting and has participated in 4 Shakespeare plays (Twelfth Night, The Tempest, The Taming of the Shrew and A Midsummer's Night Dream) as well as many shows with I Sebastiani (The Greatest Commedia dell'Arte Troupe in the Entire World). She has also appeared in the perfectly appropriate and courtly Masque of the Twelve Goddesses. More fittingly to her station, she does all sorts of needlework, cooks, and translates Latin poetry.
Morwenna is a Companion of the Order of the Laurel. She also is a Companion of the Manche, the Moon, the Daystar, and the King's Order of Excellence. She has twice served as Royal Bardic Champion, once to the King and once to the Queen.
Morwenna Westerne was born into a noble family in Cornwall. She's has always though it terribly unfair that she was given a traditional Cornish name while her younger sister was graced with the perfectly ordinary name of Emma.
At a young age Morwenna was sent to London for education and an introduction to court life. She has remained as a lady in waiting to Queen Elizabeth and watches out for her family's political and business interests. She spends her time, when not in attendance to Her Majesty, concocting sweets in her stillroom, translating racy Latin poetry, and working embroidery, as well as keeping a watchful eye on the account books.
She is currently being courted by the Boyar Aleksandr Ruslanovich, who is part of Ivan IV's embassy from Russia. Due to religious and geographical differences, not to mention the difficulty of obtaining permission from a cranky Queen and insane Tsar, it is likely that marriage is not an option anytime soon.
Offices & Positions
- Guildmistress of Cooks' Guild, Barony of Carolingia, 2005 to present
- Queen's Bardic Champion, 2002-2003
- King's Bardic Champion, 1999-2000

A 3 by Harris and then a second-chance basket by Murray cut the OSU lead that had been as large as 19 points to 70-59 with 3:31 to go. Jurick dunked and then blocked WVU's Keaton Miles at the rim before Forte made two free throws and then his final 3 to restore order.
It was much different earlier in the game, though. WVU played some of its best all-round basketball in conference play for much of the first half, scoring on offense, guarding on defense and doing enough rebounding to build and extend a lead. OSU dunked and had a layup on its first two possessions and would lead 7-4 before the Mountaineers quickly pulled themselves together.
A 3 from Harris gave WVU a lead it would hold for the next 14 minutes. The Cowboys scored just twice in a stretch of 16 possessions and mixed in turnovers with missed dunks and free throws as WVU constructed a big lead.
Six players scored in a 20-4 run for the Mountaineers and they were shooting 11-for-19 from the floor when Kilicli pump-faked Jurick at the free-throw line and then drove hard for a layup and a 24-11 lead with 5:32 left in the half. WVU had 14 points in the paint and 10 points off OSU turnovers and had allowed the Cowboys no second-chance points and no points off turnovers.
The Mountaineers couldn't keep it going, though.
"I don't know why we wouldn't," Huggins said. "I don't think it's physical. I think it's mental."
OSU switched to a zone that slowed the Mountaineers down and Forte ignited a rally with a 3 from an open spot in the right corner. That not only started a trend of open shots when his defender would leave to go help a teammate, but also a run of scores on four straight possessions and nine unanswered points. Kilcili stopped it briefly when he blocked a layup at the rim and Harris made a 3 in transition.
OSU made two free throws and the Cowboys jumped into a press that forced a turnover and led to a Smart layup to make it 27-24. After Hinds missed a 3, OSU missed a jumper in transition, but Jurick grabbed his team's first live ball offensive rebound of the first half and flicked it back to Forte for another open 3 to tie the score.
"It's all about getting momentum," Kilicli said. "Whatever we had going in the first 15 minutes -- they were making shots, we were answering it making shots and stopping them -- they turned to a zone and all our movement stopped. I don't know why because normally we're better, we score better, against a zone. I don't know. It is really hard to put my finger on what's going on."
Forte followed with his third uncontested 3 of the half to give OSU a 30-27 lead and conclude a 19-6 run to end the half. Seven points came off turnovers or offensive rebounds. WVU missed 6 of 7 shots and turned the ball over five times in the final 5:32.
"They made shots and we didn't," Huggins said. "We kind of helped them by leaving them open and getting them started. It's a lot to make one after you've made a couple. We helped off the wrong people at the wrong time."

BOISE – A bug introduced just last year in the Treasure Valley and really the US, is back and worse than last year. We're talking about the Elm Seed Bug.
It's a small bug with an 'X' on its back.
The US and Idaho Departments of Agriculture are still learning about these bugs, while many of us can't kill them fast enough.
2012 was bad, and this year is worse when it comes to the sheer number of these little in southwest Idaho.
While it's not what a lot of people want to hear, there's not a lot that can be done to get rid of them.
There's a reason we say we're being 'bugged' when we're annoyed. While the Elm Seed Bug is fairly new to the Treasure Valley, they are truly bugging a lot of people.
Mike Stanton with Zamzows says he has a few at his home but nothing like what other people have.
"This year is probably the worst we've seen for a long time, and they are everywhere," said Stanton.
Somehow introduced last year in west Idaho, they're spreading, with really nothing standing in their way.
"When they first showed up we tried a lot of different sprays because people would bring them in a plastic bag," said Stanton. "We'd spray product in a bag and seal it back up. Those guys are good at playing dead. They'd fall to the bottom of the bag and then 20 minutes later they're up walking through it."
For the past several weeks people have been calling places like Zamzows and the Idaho Department of Agriculture wanting help to get rid of these bugs.
While they don't damage buildings, plants, people or pets, they are invading homes.
"They know where the air conditioner is at," said Stanton. "I mean they creep in through small cracks and crevices or your windows and doors. They come in to share the air conditioning with you."
So pesticides don't really work, and inside your home that's really not an option. If you squish them, they stink. So what do we do?
"Best thing to do is seal up the house, make sure there's no cracks or crevices, torn screens. Make sure they can't crawl underneath the door. And then indoors, just use a vacuum cleaner," said Stanton.
And even that is temporary, because one homeowner we spoke to, who didn't want to go on camera says, regardless of what they do, they still kill at least a dozen each day. And that's bugging them.
"And I hate to tell you that, but there's nothing we can do to control them, but until they come up with a spray for them, that's what we're stuck with," said Stanton.
In addition to no man-made way to kill large numbers of these bugs, they have no natural predators.
So they're going to continue to spread until something or someone comes up with a solution.
Experts say it's likely that the worst is behind us, but we can still expect another few weeks of these bugs invading our homes.
