Re: **you have 1 hour to respond**
I decided to go with the white one... There will be a case on it so only the front will be visable. Here was some of my reasoning if it helps anyone out in the future:
The captive buttons do have a little light bleed but I actually like the glow it gives
I have never owned a white phone and it really pops
The details of the phone stand out more
It looks bigger than it actually is
Only the expensive Samsung HDMI dock comes in white (I am OCD like that)

Re: **you have 1 hour to respond**
exactly why I got the white the other day. SO happy I went with white, wouldnt change anything. Plus I like the looks of the black/white cases with the white bezel. I think the OP made the right choice. At first I was worried about the white bezel for watching movies etc, (big home theater guy and i would never mask my screen wall with WHITE since you will lose the POP effect, BUT doesnt happen with this phone. Its perfect to me)
Re: **you have 1 hour to respond**
Hey it's all opinion.
My opinion is that the hideous light bleed on the capacitive buttons would guarantee I'd never pick white. Not to mention it looks far too much like an iDerp device.

Re: **you have 1 hour to respond**
I know you're talking Note 2 here, but I have the white GS3 and although I absolutely LOVE the Blue color, I bought mine used for a good price and I have loved the white so far. It's different. And although it does subtly remind you and others of iDevices, it still looks amazing. I also love the light bleed effect. To me it looks almost intentional even though I know it isn't, and it looks cool. I absolutely LOVE the light bleed on the notification light because it gives it a 'fading out' effect instead of one small piercing stab of light.
My brother has the Gray Note 2, and it is an incredible looking piece of hardware, but a guy I know in my neighborhood has the white one, and I prefer the white. The good news is, if different people buy different colors, it will encourage Samsung to continue offering various colors on their future devices. Thank heavens we all don't like the same exact thing eh? - 01-08-2013, 08:03 PM #34

KAMPALA, 14 March 2013 (PlusNews) - The Ugandan government's draft 2013/2014 budget allocates US$38.5 million to enrol a further 100,000 people living with HIV on life-prolonging antiretroviral (ARV) drugs. But activists say the money, while welcome in a country still largely dependent on donor funds for its HIV programmes, is not sufficient to meet treatment needs."With the current allocation and funding, we still have a long way to go," said Raymond Byaruhanga, the executive director of the AIDS Information Centre (AIC). "We need the government's commitment to increase the number of people on ARVs and decrease the number of those getting HIV if we are to achieve universal access."The country enrolled an estimated 65,493 new HIV patients on ARVs in 2012, bringing to 356,056 the number of those on ARV therapy (ART), according to Uganda AIDS Commission statistics. However, this figure represents less than 70 percent of those in need of treatment. The government has set a target of reaching 80 percent of HIV-positive people with ARVs by 2015."The government efforts to contribute more funding for adding more patients on ART is commendable. However, we still need additional resources for scaling up on evidence [-based] interventions in order to be in position to halve the new infections," Monica Dea, senior programme advisor for the US Centres for Disease Control in Uganda, told IRIN.Playing catch upUganda has seen its HIV prevalence rise from 6.4 to 7.3 percent over the past five years. Experts say the rising prevalence means the government must work doubly hard to ensure even more people are placed on treatment, especially given recent research showing ARVs have a role in preventing HIV transmission.But limited funding, frequent drug stocks outs, too few CD4 count machines - which measure patients' immune strength - and understaffing in the public health sector continue to hamper plans to achieve universal ART access.According to Alex Ario, programme manager at the health ministry's AIDS control programme, the financial gap in the public sector for 2013/2014 is about $29 million."WHO [the UN World Health Organization] is changing its treatment guidelines in the coming months in order to act on exciting new science that shows that treatment saves lives and is one of the most powerful HIV-prevention tools available. This means that in 2013, the number of people in Uganda clinically eligible for treatment will expand beyond just those whose CD4 is less than 350," Asia Russell, director of international policy at the Health Global Access Project (Health GAP), told IRIN. "Despite this, the draft Budget Framework Paper for the health sector proposes no increase in investment for HIV treatment.""Ugandan civil society is calling on the government to substantially increase its investment in ART for financial year 2013/14 in order to save lives, slash rates of new infections, and begin to end the AIDS epidemic," she added.CorruptionActivists have also expressed disappointment in a local pharmaceutical plant - started in 2007 and jointly owned by a local company, Quality Chemicals Industries Limited (QCIL), and Indian generics giant Cipla Limited - that was expected to improve treatment access by providing cheaper ARVs locally. However, the factory's drugs have remained overpriced, and the plant is currently embroiled in a $17.8 million corruption scandal.In a 20 December 2011 report to Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni, then acting government anti-graft boss Raphael Baku noted that between December 2009 and October 2010, the government's National Medical Stores (NMS) paid $17.8 million more than it should have to QCIL, in violation of its Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the government. The funds allocated for ARV procurement in the budget are intended for purchasing drugs manufactured by QCIL.QCIL and NMS are accused of manipulating the MoU in order to achieve a 15 percent mark-up on imported drugs; the mark-up had actually been intended only for locally produced drugs. QCIL is also accused of continuing to sell imported drugs manufactured by Cipla to the government at inflated prices even after it started producing its own drugs.QCIL denies the allegations.The inspector general of government, anti-corruption activists and HIV activists have demanded the government recover the funds and prosecute those involved."Our government is good at creating institutions, but when it comes to implementing their recommendations, it fails," said Cissy Kagaba, the executive director the Anti-Corruption Coalition Uganda (ACCU). "We demand for an immediate action on the reports of the oversight government organs to specifically recovery all the monies lost. This is the taxpayers' money."Asuman Lukwago, the permanent secretary at the Ministry of Health, told IRIN that action would be taken on the reports."[ARVs] should be readily available to all who need them because they are life-saving drugs. I think it is treacherous for someone to overprice the drugs because this makes them inaccessible to the most vulnerable, who will most likely end up dying," said Stephen Watiti, a senior medical officer at Mildmay Uganda, an HIV treatment centre close to the capital, Kampala.New ways to fund HIV programmesAccording to Ario, the government is seeking alternative ways to fund ARVs. "Strategies are being explored to increase domestic HIV funding, such as establishing the HIV Trust Fund," he said.The Ugandan government recently developed a draft working paper on establishing this $1 billion fund for its HIV/AIDS programmes."I support the establishment of a trust fund by adding a levy on such items like beer, cigarettes, airtime or introducing an AIDS tax to make sure all money needed to sustain ART is available instead of depending on donors [for] 80-90 percent, as is the case at the moment," said Watiti.

Giants catcher Buster Posey watches his two-run home run sail in the sixth inning Sunday night. / Eric Seals/Detroit Free Press
Hey Buster!
The Tigers were swept in the World Series by a former Flying Squirrel.
And a Kung Fu Panda, who was named the MVP.
And a Buster behind the plate, not to mention a Block Buster in the batter�s box, and a scooter-riding right fielder.
The Giants are an immensely talented group of castoffs and odd balls and crazy dudes, who have a heck of a lot of fun playing baseball, while doing all the little things right.
Many things the Tigers didn�t do right.
The Giants relied on great pitching, and got crucial, clutch hitting, and played great defense, while demolishing the Tigers.
�They kicked our ass,� Tigers manager Jim Leyland said after the Giants won Game 4 on Sunday night at Comerica Park, 4-3.
Leyland said an announcement about his future would be made in the next few days. He doesn�t want to manage anywhere but Detroit, and it would be shocking if he is not asked to return.
There were several story lines in this World Series.
And one of them was this: Will the Tigers ever get Pablo Sandoval out?
The answer was, well, half the time.
Sandoval was named the World Series MVP after hitting three home runs and getting eight hits in 16 at bats.
But Mr. Kung Fu Panda will be remembered for hitting three home runs in Game 1. �You know, I still can�t believe that game,� Sandoval said. �It�s the game of your dreams. You don�t want to wake up.�
And this was another story line of this series: the Giants� pitchers dominated the Tigers batters.
Then again, maybe the Tigers batters were just dreadful and made the Giants look good. Which is hard to argue.
Probably, it was a little bit of both.
�I�m a little bit flabbergasted to be honest with you,� Leyland said.
On Sunday night, it was Matt Cain�s turn. He pitched seven innings, holding the Tigers to 3 runs.
More than anything, Cain was Able.
OK. Couldn�t resist.
�This was such an unbelievable year from the start to the finish,� Cain said.
The Giants did the little things � shoot, they even made fielding a bunt look like a ballet.
And they did the big things � Marco Scutaro, who is known as the Block Buster, knocked in the winning run in the top of the 10th off Phil Coke.
�I�m happy and I�m really pissed at the same time,� Coke said. �The game of baseball just kicked me in the butt.�
And there was another story line in this World Series: the Giants seemed to get all the breaks.
Like a line drive that went off Cain�s glove, deflected to shortstop Brandon Crawford, who threw out Quintin Berry.
Clearly, the Giants take this whole teammate thing to a ridiculous level.
Think back to this series.
Almost all the breaks went the Giants� way.
There was the home run by Sandoval that kept carrying and carrying and carrying, and even Justin Verlander was shocked when it flew over the wall. That�s not trying to diminish Sandoval�s accomplishment. We are just pointing out that even Verlander was stunned that it went out.
There were all the diving catches by the Giants� outfielders.
There was the ball that bounced off third base, like some invisible hand shoved it past Miguel Cabrera.
There was the bunt that started spinning and died, right there, in fair territory.
There was the relay that cut down Prince Fielder. Prince, man, next time extend your leg!
While the Giants got several breaks, the Tigers were searching for a break and never got one. Even in this last game.
In the first inning, Berry had a great 10-pitch at bat, which included a shot down the right-field line that was foul by just a few inches. Inches! And then, he grounded out.
�This year has been amazing,� Berry said.
Max Scherzer started the game for the Tigers and he struck out three of the first four batters. He looked incredible. Dominant. Like it was going to be one of those special games.
But the Giants would have none of it.
Hunter Pence, the Giants� scooter-riding right fielder, crushed a ball to centerfield that bounced over the wall. And then Brandon Belt, who was playing for the Double-A Richmond Flying Squirrels just two years ago, tripled to right.
Seriously. Prince Fielder was struggling and a former Flying Squirrel drove in the first run in this decisive Game 4.
�It was definitely disappointing, but a great year, none the less,� Fielder said.
So in the end, a former Flying Squirrel beat a Prince.
A Buster beat a Miggy.
And a Kung Fu Panda reigned supreme.

CSIRO, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, is Australia's national science agency and one of the largest and most diverse research agencies in the world.
Large-scale, long-term, multidisciplinary science to address Australia's major national challenges and opportunities.
CSIRO expertise is organised into 11 research areas
CSIRO manages national facilities and collections that are opened to researchers around Australia and overseas.
The MAGIC populations were developed to overcame the constraints of existing wheat quality studies
CSIRO Food Futures Flagship scientists are using MAGIC, an innovative technique to increase the speed and efficiency of wheat breeding.
The development of superior high quality wheat varieties is a main focus of scientists from CSIRO's Food Futures Flagship. Wheat is not only Australia's most important grain crop but one of the most important sources of food in the world.
CSIRO researchers in conjunction with breeders, industry and wheat quality researchers are targeting key quality attributes including desirable bread baking qualites, flour with better water absorption, high milling yields and higher protein content.
The problems with these key attributes, as is the case with many genetic traits of economic and biological interest in wheat, is that they are controlled by multiple genes.
Traditional wheat genetic studies (which only involve two parent varieties), have limited ability to define the genes determining key traits. In some cases they produce results which may reflect the parent varieties but are not applicable to use in a commercial scale.
Now for the first time, CSIRO scientists are using an innovative technique to overcome the inherent constraints of existing approaches to identifying desirable plant qualities.
The new approach, known as MAGIC - Multi-parent Advanced Generation Inter-Cross, allows the identification of genes controlling quantitative traits such as loaf volume, by crossing different combinations of multiple parents. The results of these crosses are plants that have a genome which is a mosaic of their multiple parents.
The player will show in this paragraph
MAGIC has multiple advantages compared with existing approaches, as it permits a more precise identification of genes that are responsible for wheat traits such as superior bread baking quality. Even geneswith minor effects can be pin-pointed.
Standard crosses (between two parents) have little recombination and show a poor correlation between the diversity found in the DNA (genetic diversity) and the diversity of the observable characteristics displayed by the plant (phenotypic diversity).
Because the MAGIC populations have a large number of individuals, and are the product of numerous generations of inter-crossing the original founders or parent plants, scientists are able to more accurately identify the genes underlying important traits.
There are three main advantages of the MAGIC approach compared to existing approaches:
CSIRO has developed two MAGIC populations. The first is a four parent population and includes lines adapted to all breeding regions in Australia, with genetic diversity covering approximately 80 per cent of Australian material. The second population is an eight parent population cand includes cultivars from six countries (Australia, Canada, China, Israel, United States and Mexico (CIMMYT).
As the multiple parents originate from geographically diverse regions from Australia and around the world, the MAGIC have incrorporated genetic factors useful for adaptation for a range of environments. This makes these populations an important resource for studying relationships between the genetic characteristics of the plant and the interaction with a range of environments.
Wheat quality will be investigated utilising the MAGIC wheat populations developed by CSIRO's Food Futures Flagship in collaboration with the West Australian Department of Agriculture and Food, Murdoch University and with support from the Grains Research and Development Corporation.
Dr Bruce Lee, Director of CSIRO's Food Futures Flagship said, 'MAGIC has the potential to increase the speed and efficiency of breeding and will have a direct impact on the production of farms as well as the ability to change the way scientists identify the genes that control characteristics such as quality and disease resistance.'
MAGIC will enhance our understanding of the underlying genetics behind wheat quality which is crucial for the improvement of crops and to help ensure Australia's continued success in the highly competitive global wheat markets.
In addition, this work will also provide Australian wheat breeders with more accurate DNA markers for the genes responsible for wheat quality. Equally important, they can also be applied across a wide range of characteristics important in wheat production such as seedling establishment, pre-harvest sprouting and disease resistance.

The Wild West holds a special place in American history—Western films depict it as a place where the rules didn't apply, and where scores were settled with gun slinging and shootouts. The colorful characters who made up the old West were men, women, cowboys, Indians, sheriffs just plain outlaws. Though we've come to have a more nuanced understanding of the good and the bad of the old West, we can still learn from the stories of the people who made it and who wrote about what it was.

By Frosty Wooldridge Exclusive to the Denver Post
Re: "Legislators were right to reject seat-belt blackmail" Denver Post editorial 5/7/09
Each year, around 35 to 40,000 motorists die in accidents across the USA. Most of them meet their maker from being tossed out of their cars. They fly through the air or suffer horrific injuries as they bounce around the inside of their cars during the crash.
Tens of thousands of motorists involved in crashes walk away from their cars for one reason: they buckled their seatbelts. A simple three second practice that becomes a habit saves millions of lives worldwide.
I'm a former medical technician who worked in an emergency ward. I witnessed firsthand what happens to the human body when car passengers fail to wear their seat belts. Additionally, I watched in horror what happens when a person wrecks a motorcycle without wearing a helmet. We med techs called them "organ donors."
There are so many stupid people out there that lawmakers must pass laws to protect them from themselves. In the process, they protect us from those idiots.
With so many traffic deaths that create incredible human suffering and family misery, it makes sense to make laws to enforce buckled seatbelts. We created laws to force recalcitrant parents to buckle up their children. Thus, countless children live to adulthood because of a seatbelt.
The federal government offered Colorado an opportunity to make more stringent seatbelt laws to protect drivers and passengers. A whopping $12 million would be sent to this state if the lawmakers had passed a seatbelt law to allow officers to give 'nimwits' that don't buckle up–a ticket.
If that enforcement law had passed, hundreds of thousands of people would have complied with the law for fear of facing a big fine. For those too stupid to comply, they would fill the state's coffers with more money. The law offered a win/win. It fulfilled the Law of Circulation! Teach stupid people to buckle up and save lives at the same time! What a concept! Colorado would have been $12 million richer for programs for the poor, or schools, or hospitals, or parks or a hundred other projects.
Additionally, with more people living from accidents and less injuries, insurance rates would be lower instead of higher. More celebrations for life instead of funeral dirges from deaths!
Yet, the editors of the Denver Post cheered the loss of $12 million and celebrated, albeit on the side, that more people would die because they didn't have to buckle up. That shows me the editorial room houses a bunch coruscating thinkers and writers. Yeah right! It shows me how far common sense and positive actions have come in the last 50 years.
Then, of course, the DP brought up the race card, when in fact, you could be any color of the rainbow, but if you don't wear your seatbelt, ah shucks, pulling you over would be a racial 'thing'. If you're buckled up, no officer can pull you over. Therefore, it's not a racial 'thing'.
In the end, the editorialists clinked their wine glasses, wrote an inanely based editorial while stupid Colorado drivers continue driving without buckling up. The carnage continues and the Denver Post makes about as much sense as peeing onto an electric fence.
Oh, why don't you write an editorial on how smart it is to not pass a law requiring helmets for dumb motorcycle riders? I'll write a counter editorial giving you my examples from my ER days.

The Underwater Project
Two surfers struggle to break through a wave at Tamarama beach, Sydney.
© Mark Tipple / The Underwater Project
"I've always been intrigued by what happens below the surface, like what's happening where we can't see." While watching the slide-show on Mark's laptop I'm amazed at the detail of this 'other world' that's portrayed with his selection.
As an accomplished documentary photographer, in the past Mark has used the ocean as an escape for some solace away from his projects. Lately, while between projects he's been "hanging out" below the surface trying to capture what happens while swimming on a slow summer's day.
"Coming from a surfing background I used to wonder what happens when we're duck-diving, like, what it looks like from a different angle than what we can see. Kinda hard to explain but it has always been on my mind. I used to surf with a small video camera and housing attached to my helmet, (pauses) it worked surprisingly well but my neck couldn't take the impact and stress while trying to duck-dive and capture the right angle. Even tried to turn it back on myself to see what happens clearer but that, uh, sucked (laughs). I looked for a new approach to capture what I was seeking, which basically meant getting off the surfboard."

On its third album, Wishbone Ash doesn't mess with its formula--as before, this long running British rock institution purveys a mix of blues, folk, and Yes- style riffs mated to endearingly cosmic lyrics. The songs here, however, are considerably more focused and well crafted than on the band's previous efforts, and the harmony singing is delightful.
As always, the band's basis is the tag team guitars of Andy Powell and Ted Turner. Fans of this duo's mix of Yardbirds- and Allman Brothers- style harmony licks and dueling solos will find much to admire here, ...

KINGS also introduced a more lyrical side of the group with "Closer To The Heart," a work of sheer beauty that would become ...

As a greeting in parting you often say "Take care" (at least in the US, I am not so sure about the UK).
Can you also say "Take you care" or answer with "Take you care, too"?
As a greeting in parting you often say "Take care" (at least in the US, I am not so sure about the UK). Can you also say "Take you care" or answer with "Take you care, too"? |
I'll second take care as popular in the US. As far as this construction isn't standard. That said, are often heard. |
"Take care" is in the imperative, i.e. it is a command or request. "You" is assumed as the subject and not normally included. This is the same for all imperatives. "Sit down", "Pass the salt", "Bring a friend", etc., you do not include an explicit subject except in rare cases where it is needed for clarity or emphasis. |
It is: I have no idea what your native tongue is. But you might be interested in the subject of word order. If you find yourself switching the order of words in a sentence (usually because you are mentally translating on the fly), then it is very likely because your native language follows a word order different from English. |
The simple answer is "No" you cannot say "Take you care" in any context. In this context, "You" is implied because the construction is an imperative, and modern English does not compose 'you' in the ways of Middle English. The correct for, is "Take care of yourself" since the subject is now explicit. "You take care" is an imperative (order-instruction) that can gain tremendous (and socially awkward) force through inflection. Colloquially, "take you care" is an expression I have most-often heard used in the 'middle US' states. I feel that moving the "you" to from the beginning to the middle of the expression does the action of 'softening', and thus personalizing (de-formalize), the culturally-uncouth nature of an imperative construction. Like most colloquial expressions, users are likely to bond more with speaker. |
I'm not an English native speaker, but I believe that "Take care" is popular – not "You take care" or "You take care, too". What would be the point of "you"? |
I would likely use and you in a reply to take care |
If the intent is for "you" to be the subject of your imperative, then the usage is "You take care" as coleopterist mentioned. However, if the intent is for "you" to be the object, then it is "Take care of yourself." |

Oct 4, 2012As an action game, RE6 is a solid shooter with some pretty stellar moments. As a Resident Evil game...it's pretty awful. It's by no means a bad game per se, but the series is beginning to show it's age. Which is really a shame.
Oct 3, 2012
Oct 7, 2012Resident Evil 6 offers a variety of brand new fun changes and additions that make it different from others, but even though the game is very big, it still lacks to original formula many fans crave for.
Oct 10, 2012
Dec 17, 2012i really don't know why everybody hates this game so much. it's not a rehashing of the old games and that seems to be all people want. that's really boring. they took it to a new angle and it's interesting. it's not perfect but it's a good game.
Oct 2, 2012RE 6 is better than Dark Souls in every aspect, seriously would you believe me if i tell you how much I got bored with Dark Souls? but with Resident Evil 6 it's fun all the time because you have weapons and you fight monsters not just those boring zombies, REAL monsters.
Oct 2, 2012I agree with the people who claims this game to be better than Dark Souls, dark souls have no story and its boring with an unfair difficulty. This game in the other hand is fun, with a fair difficulty and the best story of videogame history. If you dont buy it, you're retarded. Dont let the user score scare you, what are you? a fool who let others brainwash you into not buying what you want? lol

Oct 11, 2012Worst game in the series. They should be embarrassed for putting out such garbage. I can't believe i wasted a good Verbatim DL-DVD on this junk. I want my $0.50 back for my disk i burned it on :)

And why low score cause its not resi -
Oct 5, 2012Holy cows, this is pretty bad stuff, it's not even a good ACTION game, it's full of technical problems, the camera is awful and the cover system is broken. Surely a strong candidate for worst game of 2012.
Jan 15, 2014
Oct 3, 2012As usual, trolls come out to play on metacritic. Most rating low probably havent even touched the game. People are being too harsh.. I think its a great game so far. Finished Leons campaign tonight, really enjoyed it. Played it local co-op with my friend. Nothing bad to say about it really... maybe just the camera can be annoying sometimes.
Oct 2, 2012
Oct 6, 2012
Oct 3, 2012Why are there so many mindless zeroes? Yes this game had flaws but now I feel that I am forced to give it a 10 to hopefully raise its metascore a little. No it wasn't nearly as good as any other RE game but it was still okay.
Oct 2, 2012I cannot believe this game. They did everything we didn't want them to do! They made it more of an action game, they added more co-op and that pointless AI partner, and it isn't even scary! What the hell is wrong with you Capcom?
Oct 8, 2012
Oct 2, 2012Horrible game, Capcom almost literally took a **** on all of their fans with this piece of garbage. It's sad, really but probably for the best since we likely won't get another resident evil game after this, thank god to that.
Oct 8, 2012
Oct 30, 2012
Oct 4, 2012Most disappointing Resident Evil game in the series. Good graphics, enjoyable co op, bad Chris and Jake campaign, lack of horror (game made me laugh when I saw zombies with guns and CoD gameplay mechanics). Average game - definitely worse than Resident Evil 4 and 5. Not worth 59 $ in my opinion. Wait for the price cut!!!

Mar 12, 2013It blows my mind how this game gets so much hate. It's a fun and lengthy 3rd person adventure game with a load of variety throughout. Sure, the horror aspects aren't what the used to be, but if you liked the older games better then go play them instead...

Oct 16, 2012With a fantastic story, memorable characters, exhilarating set pieces, and a masterful blend of all the best elements found in previous iterations of the franchise, Resident Evil 6 delivers an unforgettable experience which every fan of the series ought to partake in.

Oct 11, 2012Como voces sabem, a maior prova que a Capcom poderia ter que Resident Evil 6 foi um grande sucesso, aconteceu! O game ja vendeu mais de 4,5 milhoes de copias e espera atingir a marca de 7 milhoes ate 31/03/2013. Os jogadores que compraram, ainda tiveram a oportunidade de jogar uma extensa demo antes de decidir pela compra.

Oct 2, 2012I stood in line to buy this last night and got aobut 3 hours into it. As a RE fan, I am extremely, extremely disappointed. Rushed, disorganized, and downright shameful to the series (even worse than Operation Racoon city). If i could go back in time and cancel my preorder and get my money back, I would :(

Oct 2, 2012Is no gaming series safe from over-casualization? Of becoming another Call of duty clone but overwhelmingly worse? Capcom continues this trend with RE 6. Quite simply, everyone is sick of fps' and the industry needs to wake up.

Oct 4, 2012Trolls are everywhere on this title. Well worth the wait. Well worth the time. Well worth the money. actual score would have to be an 8.5 outta 10 but had to give it a ten to help offset the trolls.
Oct 2, 2012
Dec 15, 2012This **** piece of **** game is the Nickelback of gaming history, Capcom should be ashamed of having their logo stamped on this abomination, we should just pretend it doesn't exist and move on.

Oct 3, 2012Pros: Awesome graphics, great story, solo or co-op campaign and horde type mode, FREE web service (ResidentEvil.net)
Cons: If you are looking for gameplay similar to RE1 or RE2, this is not it. Resident Evil 6 is more action based (but it's a great game).
In closing: It's a fun game, worth buying. Please, ignore the hater spam that seems to have run rampant... -
Oct 17, 2012
Nov 11, 2012Resident Evil 6 is a game very doubtful to evaluate. The main problem was the bet Capcom just innovation. The staff cared so much that he forgot to innovate polishing in some points. Still, the game can be great.

Oct 2, 2012I do not have any problem with Capcom doing a Resident Evil without horror. But if they want to do a TPS, they should do something good. With great games like Gears of War and Uncharted available, who wants dated and boring game like this. Resident Evil 6 is a big failure.
Oct 8, 2012Resident Evil 6 follows in the footsteps of both 4 ( with 4 it has big shoes to fill) & 5 and does so brilliantly as it emulates the 4th's gritty setting and tension while keeping the 5th's lust for blood and guns it isn
Oct 3, 2012This is Resident Evil game that nobody wanted. Every aspect of this game stinks of Capcom rushing an unfinished game onto shelves as quickly as possible. A poor attempt at turning Resident Evil into Uncharted with awful action scenes and a billion quick-time events.
Oct 3, 2012I have read, re-read, and re-evaluated all of these reviews. And all I have to say is you need to think of it as a Resident Evil game, rather than an action game. And then it truly shines Yes it has different mechanics, yes it has its problems. But it still has that old school resident evil feel that we all know and love. Give it a try. I promise you won't be disappointed.
Oct 3, 2012
Oct 6, 2012love it, all these zero's are atrocious, if your looking for re4 this isnt it get over it, so stop crying because you want another version of an old game, capcom wants to tap into a new market and some of us love it
Oct 12, 2012Resident Evil ha cambiado y es un juego super completo y entretenido... no te dejes llevar por los reviews... sin duda si eres un real fanatico de la franquicia te encantara.... no es un juego perfecto pero es de lo mejor que ha salido de la franquicia... tienes para todos los gustos

Oct 5, 2012In all, there are seven main characters and four stories, giving this title an unprecedented volume of game playing enjoyment.

Oct 11, 2012
Oct 2, 2012If you like Resident Evil, you will not like this game. It should be titled, "Call of Zombies". This game is a total COD wannabe with infinite QTEs in place of a good game. Save your $60. Tell Capcom we will not support this kind of crap.
Oct 2, 2012
Dec 22, 2012
Nov 6, 2012The game has some stumbling moments, but it is worth sticking it out. With the franchise changing over time it has lost a lot of what originally defined Resident Evil to us all.
Nov 4, 2012This new Resident Evil installment has definitely abandoned the survival horror genre and has moved into the crowded field of action shooters. [Nov 2012]
Oct 27, 2012A varied and challenging game that continues the series' evolution into action territory. IT can be incredibly frustrating at times, but also very rewarding when you finally overcome the many challenges it puts you through.

Super Easy Cat Cuts
I have been building my cat tarp and started a bridge hammock (in other words I have been busy making cat cuts)
I have found a very easy and efficient way to cut great looking catenary curves.... First, it is important to not that I have a shop with a sheet rock wall. Step 1: To make the cat curve I started by measuring up 65" from the floor in the shop in two different locations on the same wall. I then use a chalkline to mark a level line between these points. Step 2: Next I use modelling pins (you could use thumb tacks) to hang the factory edge of the fabric along the chalkline mark. Step 3: At this point if my fabric is not cut to length I do this by measuring to the desired length and then use a plumb bob to ensure a straight line (gravity please don't ever fail me ) I make several dots along the line and then remove the plumb bob and use a ruler or straight edge to connect the dots. Step 4: I then find the middle of the fabric. I place a mark on the wall where the mid point is. At the mid-point I use a measuring tape to determine the maximum amount of curve I want (6" or 10" etc, etc) I make a mark on the fabric at this point. Step 5: I then use a piece of string (usually the chalk line) and pin one end of the string to the end of the fabric. Then do the same to the other end of the fabric, but I make sure that the string touches the mark on the fabric I made at the mid-point. Step 6: With the string still in place I carefully (without moving the string) make several tiny dots on the fabric along the string with a sharpie or other marking device. Step 7: Remove the string. Step 8: Connect the dots using a ruler or straight edge. VILOA perfect cat cut pattern. To ease the cutting process I leave the fabric pinned to the wall while I use a soldering iron to cut and fuse the edges of the fabric. Warning: Be careful using a soldering iron for anything other than its intended purpose. Also...Using a soldering iron on sheet rock (or plaster walls) will leave permanent marks.

80% of the time I spend sewing is in making double roll hems (or if I'm extravagant, putting on bias tape).
If you cut and and fuse fabric with a tool designed for this, it is necessary to hem the edge? thanks Grizz ( who is off now to spend another hour hemming ) |

Grizz - did you experiment with a symmetrical arc on the Bridge?
If so have you been able to compare to asymmetrical arc? This method could be modified to yield an asymmetrical curve with the mid-point shifted toward the head end. The original was asymmetrical, but I don't really know how necessary that is if at all or how differing spreader bar lengths at head and foot ends affect the hang with a symmetrical curve. If I remember correctly, your customized curve was asymmetrical also. |

12-08-2007, 12:16 | #6 | |
how does this create one curve rather than 2 straight lines running form the ends to the center mark??? did i miss something? that actually seems like a good idea though, getting down on your hands and knees on the floor is a pain, and the fabric would probably spread better, probably wouldn't work as well for trying to trace a pattern with though. did the fabric lay flat and still against the wall? if you mounted a cutting board on the wall, you could just tilt the bottom out a bit. Grizz, a couple of the online shops sell a "hot knife" it's just a soldering iron with a round blade tip, (not sharp) you might be able to find something similar in a soldering iron kit. i cut fabric almost exclusivly with one now, the back of a peice of white 4x8 tileboard from home depot works great. it's about 3/16" or so thick, looks like dry erase board on one side and brown on the back. i think it's wood product, but not like particle board, the compressed wood is in tiny fiber form so it is really consistent which is what makes it work well) |

TeeDee -- i wanted to see what all the hoopla was about concerning this bridge hammock thing, so last night i made one out of a piece of fabric i had laying around using the directions on that aussie sailing site as a guide. it is 7' long, 56" wide at the ends, and has a symmetrical 12" cat cut along the sides. i double rolled the hem around the perimeter and sewed 1" wide poly webbing loops on the corners, overlapping the body approximately 3" along the long sides. i wasn't sure if that would be sufficient, but so far so good. as a temporary measure i used a pair of square decking balusters as spreader bars. i drilled several holes through them and used some spare hardware to make a way of easily attaching them to the biners that i had put through the loops at the corners of the fabric. this made changing the length of the bars a 30-second operation, so i was able to try several lengths in a very short time for comparison. i started with 30" and went up to 38" in two inch increments. i also tried it wider at the head end in various combinations. after trying every possible combination several times, i came to the conclusion that although i could feel a slight difference in shoulder squeeze, it was not enough of a difference to get excited about. the trade off for a longer bar length was a corresponding loss of stability. again, not dramatic, but noticeable. i suspect that changing the cat cut will make much more of a difference in how the hammock hangs, but of course trying different cuts is not nearly as easy. i also spent some time last night hacking up an old kelty synthetic bag to make a 3" thick underquilt for this new addition to the hammock collection. (that IS what this forum is all about isn't it... hammock collecting?) i guess that is anther thread so i will just say that i hope to do some backyard testing tonight and maybe post a report tomorrow.
i'm looking forward to your detailed bridge hammock article and pictures, as are many others here. not sure what the delay is, but as they say, patience is a virtue. thanks to all for sharing your ideas and experiences. -20 |

As far as super easy cat cuts? I had my length, my depth and then made my best-guess as to the curve itself. I figured my lack of sewing ability would negate any attempt at perfection in the layout process. TWS |

My most recent bridge uses symmetric cuts, 6" deep. I'm not inclined at this point to alter that formula. Grizz |

I can definitely see that it's worthwhile to keep the ends from fraying. thanks Grizz |

A conversation you'll hear in and around Southwest Florida in 2014:
"Hey, did you hear the Doobie Brothers are coming back to Naples?"
"Cool. Where are they playing?"
"What's that?"
"You know. That place on 41."
"Uh huh..."
"Pelican Bay."
"Fancy architecture. Big statue out front."
"I'm drawing a blank."
" Myra Daniels."
"Oh, you mean The Phil."
"Yes! The Phil."
"Why didn't you just say so?"
The decision of the Naples Philharmonic Center for the Arts — The Phil, familiarly — to rename itself Artis—Naples has all the making of a rebranding disaster: A successful enterprise beloved by the community. An immediately recognizable name already in place. A desire to update.
The Phil, excuse me, Artis—Naples, isn't the first enterprise with a household name to rebrand itself. If everyone is still calling it The Phil in five years, neither will it be the first time the idea didn't take. Remember when Pizza Hut tried to get people to start calling it The Hut?
Or when Radio Shack started advertising as The Shack?
"That's a nice phone. Where'd you get it?"
"The Shack."
"You bought your phone at a shack?"
"Not a shack, The Shack."
"Never mind."
But I'm not one to criticize. The folks at The Phil, I mean at Artis—Naples, know more about marketing an arts venue than I. Their plan to define the facility as more than a music hall is no doubt sound.
So I'll make just one suggestion.
Artis isn't exactly the most relatable word. Is it pronounced art is or ar tees?
Thankfully there is one use of the word that is recognized by millions of people, especially here in Florida. By capitalizing on that use and altering it slightly the Phil, I mean Artis—Naples, can work its favored word into the name and still convey a sense of a mission that goes beyond classical music.
We start by borrowing on the recognition already enjoyed by a certain Jacksonville University basketball legend who was an all-star in both the ABA and the NBA.
Change that name, Artis Gilmore, to Artis—Philmore and you've done it. Artis, as in art is, and Philmore, as in more than just a philharmonic center. What's not to love?
The conversation would then go something like this.
"Hey, did you hear the Doobie Brothers are coming back to Naples?"
"Cool. Where are they playing?"
"Didn't he retire like 25 years ago?"
"Never mind."

Food is amply diverse for anyone I'd care to dine with. Beer selection is from heaven. FROM HEAVEN.
Atmosphere occasionally ventures into sports bar spectrum, but that never bothers me at Mugs. Table service is knowledgeable and friendly.
Also: pinball. Very important.
This is the sort of place that locals need to vigorously support, before all of our choices are reduced to TGIF's and Olive Garden. Go there.
