I need to make this border running along my fence a little more interesting. I haven't hauled out any gardening books for inspiration yet, and I thought I'd ask here.
On the left in the full shot I just dug out a California Lilac that died back, and that corner is filled with waist-high buttercups I am in the process of tearing out. On the other end of the border is a smal shade garden on the side of the house. The area faces west and gets a bit of morning sun coming in from between the house and the neighbour's, then it's in shade until the afternoon when it has a few hours of hot afternoon sun.
So far I only have plans to put a metal arch in the left corner so I can get my clematis to climb over that instead of the adjoining fence. It's the middle portion of the fence I'm wanting to add height to somehow, but I can't go higher than the fence without interference from the neighbour's bushes that hang over a bit. (and I'm trying to take the eye away from tat too) I had a bunch of morning glories in the middle on a net, but they didn't thrive there because they do better with more hours of full sun.

I have rather tiny backyard and that's why I wanted to make it really cozy.
here are my before and after pics. they are 2 years apart. I used as my inspiration some plans from bhg.com (the one that anrol posted), as well i purchased one plan from the internet.
This is still work in progress - bought this year climbing hydrangea that will eventually grow in the corner, silver lace vine is still half dormant, but it will bloom late in summer.
It's a small space but I feel very happy there!
Good luck with your garden project!
Here is a corner of grasses----- I found it at [url]www.bhg.com[/url] If you go to the website they have a detailed plan of what is planted in it.

Positive Chronicles - Living with cancer, meaningfully
by Pallavi Bhatacharya
Surubhi is a shy nine-year-old suffering from Hodgkins Lymphoma. She is finally on the road to recovery and is waiting for her hair to grow back so that she can dress up again. Surubhi dreams of growing up to be a doctor.
Poonam Bagai felt her perfect life had been shattered when she was diagnosed with colon cancer at age 38. Mother of two little children, she was overcome with the fear of leaving them orphaned. She plunged into depression and anxiety attacks. As she recovered, Poonam decided to dedicate her life to working with cancer patients.
Brig. S.C. Sharma discovered he had a new war to fight after retirement when he was diagnosed with stomach and oesophagus cancer. To make matters worse, he suffered a cardiac stroke after his first session of chemotherapy. He was declared terminally ill and sent home. But he refused to give up. Says he: I took my inspiration from Bhishma of the Mahabharata, who was able to chose the time of his death. Why couldnt I do the same? Nine years later, he is happy to share his story of survival.
Like Surubhi, Poonam and Brig. Sharma, there are many all over the world who with their courage, medical care and family support, have been able to overcome cancer. There are also those who might have lost the battle, but managed to live meaningful lives in spite of their physical suffering. These people lead us to believe that illness need not stunt our lives or potential. These can be achieved in spite of, and in some cases through, our physical suffering.
Confronting fear
Even though we know that we have to face death at some point or another, terminal illness brings it in sharp focus. It is now believed that fear and accompanying emotions like denial, anger and the why me? syndrome can hamper our healing process and have a psychosomatic effect on the disease. Confronting fear is then the first step towards dealing with cancer. We can do this by acknowledging the fear, watching and becoming aware of its presence.
Writer-poet Javed Akhtar said at a seminar conducted by Delhi-based Cancer Sahyog: A person on coming to know he has cancer is overcome with shock and disbelief. This may turn into anger as he wonders what he has done to deserve this. He may be caught in self-pity. Its easier to come to terms with the ailment if a person understands that the cosmos is not in conspiracy against us. Adds psychiatrist Monica Chib: If ones mind is healthy, one will be able to cope better with the ailment. This may seem easier said than done but if we look at the life experiences of cancer survivors, we find that many have been able to get better not just through medical care but by strength of will.
Support systems
Contrary to the orthodox belief that a cancer patient should not be told of the ailment, counsellors now suggest that the family discuss the nature of the illness and its treatment frankly with the patient. The patients life is bound to change and he needs to prepare for it psychologically. Santosh Handa, who survived breast cancer, agrees. When I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1988, the doctors didnt even tell me that I would be losing a breast. When I woke up from surgery I was shocked. Says Poonam Bagai: Even children should know if they have cancer. They can be told in a non-scary way, for instance through stories of good cells, bad cells and enemies fighting.
Support from family, friends, and those who have been in a similar situation, is crucial. Caregivers might inadvertently do things that are detrimental for the patient. Says Harmala Gupta, founder of Cancer Sahyog: People tend to give advice on cures from information theyve received from word of mouth. Instead, patients should be empathetically listened to. They should not be treated like children and allowed to make their own decisions. This helps build self-esteem. Also, they should not be showered with attention but given their own space. Sitting silently with them will do a whole lot of good. They need to look beyond physical scars and learn to love themselves. Visiting a counsellor might sensitise caregivers to the kind of care they need to provide. It will also help them cope with the stress of a loved ones illness.
Holistic alternatives
The second hurdle is choosing and undergoing treatment. Conventional treatment is well knownsurgery, chemotherapy and radiation. When people say that the treatment of cancer is as bad as the disease, they are referring to side-effects that may involve nausea, diarrhoea and hair loss. The body is depleted of strength and the patient feels weak.
This is why an increasing number of people are looking towards holistic therapies to complement conventional treatment. This is done with the hope of lessening side-effects and enable body, mind and spirit to heal. Says Surubhi Kakkar, whose husband survived colon cancer: After surgery, the main side-effect was the accumulation of pus. We turned to homoeopathy and the problem was greatly reduced.
Breast cancer survivor Renuka Prasad says: During chemotherapy, I drank wheatgrass juice which was rich in minerals and helped detoxify my system. Meditation, reiki and praying also helped. Kamal Srinivasan, survivor of Hodgkins Lymphoma, says: I would do yoga and continued doing household work during my illness. I think this was instrumental in reducing side-effects of chemotherapy.
When 40-year-old Vijay Bhat was diagnosed with colon cancer, he decided to opt for holistic therapy instead of conventional treatment. He tried a combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine, holistic diet, herbal medicine and acupuncture. He feels he was able to overcome the disease by making important changes in his lifestyle, like switching to healthy practices and thinking positively. Vijay and his wife now live in Hong Kong, where he works for a leading communications group.
Sabita Chakraborty was diagnosed with third stage Hodgkins Lymphoma at age 80. Her children felt there was no hope when doctors said that she would be unable to withstand chemotherapy. She underwent homoeopathic treatment instead. Now, three years later, her lymph node swellings have disappeared and she leads a normal life.
Renowned writer Louise L. Hay opted for affirmations, visualisation, nutritional cleansing and psychotherapy when diagnosed with vaginal cancer. In six months, she was completely healed. Her book Heal Your Body outlines ways in which we can take our healing in our own hands.
Recovery and healing
Experts agree that holistic therapies may work best when used as complementary to conventional treatment. What is more important is the patients ability to remain positive in the face of suffering brought on by the disease. Louise L. Hay advocates affirmations, which she believes help healing by cleansing negative thought patterns.
Even when one has recovered from cancer, one needs to go for regular check-ups. If a relapse does occur, it is best to see it as another mountain to climb. Writer Reeta Dutta Gupta retains her optimism even after being diagnosed with cancer for a second time. I believe Ill be able to fight this illness as I had successfully fought the previous one. I leave treating the physical part of my ailment to doctors. I am trying to heal my mind and spirit through prayers, meditation and pranic healing, she affirms.
Post-cancer, a person seems to see life anew. He might find that he has developed strength of mind, willpower and optimism through his engagement with the disease, which he didnt have before. These are added to the quiver of life skills that help him handle future crises with greater ease. Many wish to live a more meaningful life and turn to spiritual practices or social work.
Harmala Gupta, a Hodgkins Lymphoma survivor, decided to use her own experience with cancer to benefit others. She founded Cancer Sahyog to take care of the emotional issues of cancer patients. This NGOs volunteers are mainly cancer survivors who visit hospitals in Delhi, share their coping strategies and offer courage to cancer patients. Cancer Sahyog organises seminars on cancer awareness and offers free or subsidised treatment to needy patients.
Ultimately, whether it is dealing with cancer or life in general, it is the individuals ability to face and accept reality, and live in it as consciously and gently as one can, that really matters. The journey, after all, is the destination; and perhaps how we live is a more profound experience than how long we live. As Treya Killam Wilber, who succumbed to cancer after living with it for five years, says in the book Grace and Grit: Because I can no longer ignore death, I pay more attention to life.

While her stats and Parkins' were similar, Burdette said that had more to do with the pitchers' supporting cast.
"I think it's important to have a good defense behind the pitcher to take some of the pressure off of them," Burdette said. "That's what our defense did at the state tournament."
Only one Class A program has won more than three Class A titles in a row. Wheeling Central won seven straight from 1995-2001, a string that began just one year after the sport was broken into three competitive classes.
The Maroon Knights were again part of the state tournament as the Region 1 champion in 2013, falling in the loser's bracket final. Senior Sarah Henry was named to the All-State team as a pitcher while sophomore Sydney Barrington (.457, 4 HR, 24 RBI) was named as an infielder.
Moorefield, which lost to Buffalo in the state title game for the second year in a row, also had two players named to the team. Junior Danica Rogers was the Yellow Jackets' ace and thus named as a pitcher. Junior Beth Cook hit .644 with 9 HR, 14 doubles and 37 RBI and was named as an infielder.
Pitching statistics for Central's Henry and Moorefield's Rogers were not provided by their coaches. Numbers were also not provided for the Man High School duo of senior pitcher Taylor Tomblin and senior catcher Summer Sword, though both earned All-State spots based on their success throughout the course of the year as well as support given to the players by writers and opposing coaches.
Doddridge County senior Ashlie LaFalce returned to the All-State team as a catcher, hitting .448 with 5 HR and 29 RBI.
The remainder of the infield was made up of St. Marys senior Abbi Fetty (.564), Doddridge County junior Lacy Perkins (.420, 13 doubles, 22 RBI) and Sherman senior Mackenzie Smith (.410, 10 HR, 36 RBI).
Higginbotham became a two-time selection in the outfield after hitting .462 with 31 stolen bases. She was joined in the All-State outfield by Wirt County senior Emily Ohrm (.415, 4 HR, 7 3B, 20 RBI) and St. Marys sophomore Mikaela Britton (.592, 8 2B).
South Harrison senior Jessica Puddister became a four-time selection - she made the team as a freshman when the Hawks won their only state title in 2010 - after hitting .463 with 20 RBI and striking out 95 batters. Puddister was named as a utility player.
Also named at utility were Magnolia junior Mallory Chapman (.563, 5 HR and 165 strikeouts as a pitcher) and Gilmer County junior Julie Bishop (.459, 34 RBI, 12-4 with 71 K).

Tabor Academy was founded by Mrs. Elizabeth Taber in 1876. It was a time, as Mrs. Taber was clearly aware, of great national events: the Centennial Celebration of the Declaration of Independence and the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, as well as the end of the presidency of Ulysses Grant. A decade out from the end of the Civil War, much of the country was in an optimistic mood. Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876; Thomas Edison was close to discovering the electric light. Custer would make his "last stand" in the summer. Harvard and Yale would play their first Thanksgiving football game in the fall. Mrs. Taber had grown up in Marion, Massachusetts, and spent her childhood along the shores of Sippican Harbor. She married Stephen Taber, moved to New Bedford, and became the mother of three children. While her husband achieved considerable wealth as both a clock maker and whale ship investor, Mrs. Taber's life was shadowed by sadness. She saw all three of her children die in infancy, and after the Civil War her husband died as well. For a period of time, Mrs. Taber apparently lived in solitude in a New Bedford mansion, but then, in her mid-eighties, she underwent a kind of epiphany. She determined to make her life count for something good, so she returned to the town of Marion to begin a decade-long transformation of the place of her birth. She committed her great material gain to good use. She caused to be built parks, a library, the town's Music Hall, and, finally, Tabor Academy, which she named, as a kind of theological pun and to expand its meaning beyond herself, for Mt. Tabor in the Holy Land. She housed her Academy in two Victorian structures on the corner of Spring and Main Streets in Marion. She also had built a large home for herself and the family of her first Headmaster. And, through her will, she charged the school always to improve itself: "… the character of the school," she wrote, "should be gradually elevated and its scope enlarged [to serve] youth of all portions of the country …." Tabor Academy served students from the Town of Marion and surrounding communities like Wareham, Rochester, and Mattapoisett, and from time to time a few young men boarded at the school. The majority of students were young women, however, and the school prospered and grew for about twenty years. Then, a series of financial catastrophes swept the country, and Tabor Academy, along with many of the New England town academies, began to wobble. In 1916 there were fewer than a dozen students, and the trustees contemplated a sale of the property to the town as a site for the local high school. However, three trustees prevailed over this plan and that year hired a new Headmaster, Mr. Walter Lillard. Mr. Lillard brought a fresh vision to the school, seeing at once that moving Tabor from its "in town" location to the seaside would make it unique among New England schools. He quickly convinced the trustees of the vitality of his vision and worked over the next twenty years to move Tabor Academy toward the sea. By the mid-1930s, Mr. Lillard had effected a dramatic "trade" with the town of Marion, exchanging the then Town Hall (now the current site of the Academic Center) and a small plot of land on Front Street for the Academy's larger land and buildings. He managed to acquire nearly a half mile of salt marsh and fields and a few old "summer cottages," and thus, "Tabor Academy, the School by the Sea" had its second founding. Quickly, under Mr. Lillard's leadership, the school grew ten-fold, and by the time all of the operation of the school moved to its current location, Tabor's reputation as a unique and extraordinary place had been secured. Over the last seventy years Tabor has developed its extraordinary philosophy, program, and facility founded on its deep connection with the natural world, the spiritual legacy of the sea around us, and the common humility and dedication that life by the sea inspires. |

Do you know any video from TEDx events that is not on TED.com but worth watching?
Considering that hundreds of TEDx events have been held so far with some having their own online archive and YouTube channels, I guess there are more than a few videos from TEDxers that are not on TED.com but are worth spreading to TED communities. So let's shed lights on those hidden treasures.
Please post your recommended TEDx talk videos with brief description and the link to its legitimate archive. For me, those available in English in some form or other would be preferable. I'm especially interested in talks on education in a broad sense, but any recommendation in other areas is also appreciated.
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Mar 23 2011: My absolute favourite is the talk by Iain Thomas at TEDxJohannesburg, entitled "You And I, We Are The Same", where he discusses the development of microstories and shows how technology becomes community and how, with a few words, you can affect lives across the world.

iPhone and Android Play Nice – Appcelerator's Titanium fuses the combatant's in a bond of love
Google's Android platform, open source and relatively new, is a force to be reckoned with. So is the iPhone and its App Store juggernaut. Both are based on *NIX operating systems that have desktop niches and conceivably could be ported to just about any hardware with a CPU (and conceivably, even the iPhone). Philosophically of course, they are very different. MacOS X' roots are open source with the project called Darwin, but Apple are often about as community friendly as the RIAA. Google, ever the stealth operator, expand even into our streets without so much as a hissyfit (unless you live in the UK).

Eight Years Of Unheeded 'Daniel' Warnings About Iran What Happens Next? (Part IV)
Latest update: January 10th, 2013
The views expressed in this eight-column article on Project Daniel are solely those of Professor Louis René Beres, and may not reflect the opinions of any other members of Project Daniel, or of any government.
It may appear, at first glance, that Israeli targeting of enemy military installations and troop concentrations (counterforce targeting) could be both more compelling as a deterrent, and also more humane. But it is likely, even plausible, that a nuclear-armed enemy of Israel could regard any Israeli retaliatory destruction of its armed forces as "acceptable" in certain circumstances. Such an enemy might conclude, for example, that the expected benefits of annihilating Israel would outweigh any expected retaliatory harms to its military. Here, Israel's nuclear deterrent would fail, possibly with existential consequences.
Louis René Beres is Strategic and Military Affairs columnist for The Jewish Press.
About the Author: Louis René Beres, strategic and military affairs columnist for The Jewish Press, is professor of Political Science at Purdue University. Educated at Princeton (Ph.D., 1971), he lectures and publishes widely on international relations and international law and is the author of ten major books in the field. In Israel, Professor Beres was chair of Project Daniel.

United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN)
In 1959, the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) paved the way for a small group of experts to meet and provide technical recommendations on standardizing geographical names at the national and international levels. This meeting gave rise to the United Nations Conferences on the Standardization of Geographical Names (UNCSGN) and to the United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN). The UNCSGN is held every five years, and UNGEGN meets between the Conferences to follow up the implementation of resolutions adopted by the Conferences and to ensure continuity of activities between Conferences. Today, UNGEGN is one of the seven standing expert bodies of ECOSOC, with over 400 members from over 100 countries.
Outside its meetings, UNGEGN functions through 24 geographical/linguistic divisions and through working groups, currently addressing issues of training courses, digital data files and gazetteers, romanization systems, country names, terminology, publicity and funding, and toponymic guidelines.
- The 27th Session of the United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN) was held in New York, 30 July and 10 August 2012.
- The 10th Conference on the Standardization of Geographical Names (UNCSGN) was held in New York, 31 July – 9 August 2012. Note Verbale was transmitted on 27 Feburary 2012.

Write in your question about this product: AVAILABLE COLORSCUSTOMER REVIEWS16 reviews The t-shirts and sweatshirts that we ordered were exactly what we were looking for. The printing and embroidery are great! The quality of the sweatshirt was great. It was nice and thick as was the sample I received prior to the order. I really appreciated the fact that we were able to get a good price on the reorder considering that it was a significantly smaller qty than our original order. I would of like our logo to stand out more ( a little bigger) but that was my fault because we got the size that I sent in. As always it was a very positive experience. The product was exactly as expected and like the sample that we had received. This is not our first experience with Branders and although all our experiences with branders have been favorable, this is the second time that we recieved some packages that were in questionable condition. Three of the boxes were split open on a couple of seams. The good part is that none of the product was affected or damaged but we have had this happen a couple of years back when we ordered waterproof fleece picnic blankets. High quality with a quick turnaround for an emergency order. Leida's service was amazing! Great quality for a great price. Very happy with our order.

Apples Maps Are... Interesting.
by Rob Lucas
posted Sep 26 2012 7:34AM
Did you update your Apple device to the latest operating software?
Apple's latest operating system, iOS 6, debuted last week to Apple users across the globe. While the new operating system had over
200 added improvements
and features added to its iPhone and iPad devices, it has also had its
faults and criticisms
during the initial release; most notably the new Apple Maps feature.
In this latest version, the Google Maps app has been removed and replaced with Apple Maps. Although similar to Google maps in terms of functionality, Apple Maps looks more like a beta-test version than a properly functioning app. The errors and problems with Apple Maps have been so vast and appalling that it has sparked a new blog called
The Amazing iOS 6 Maps

Only one high-quality clinical trial has looked at gabapentin (Neurontin, others) as a fibromyalgia treatment. In that study, the drug reduced participants' reported pain, fatigue and sleep disruption more effectively than did a placebo.
Gabapentin has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of fibromyalgia, although some doctors may prescribe it off-label for such use. The FDA has, however, approved a similar drug — pregabalin (Lyrica) — for fibromyalgia treatment.
Gabapentin and pregabalin were originally approved to treat certain types of epilepsy and nerve pain. Both drugs work by limiting the release of pain-communicating chemicals by nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.
Because gabapentin is available in generic form, it may be less expensive than pregabalin. But you have to take gabapentin three or four times a day, which makes it less convenient than pregabalin, taken in two daily doses. The most common side effects of both drugs are dizziness and drowsiness.

Review By: WoLf | Posted: 24/09/2008
The Final Word
With a few patches under its belt we have a feeling that STALKER: Clear Sky will be a worthy game one day, at the moment, the broken triggers and the npc vanishing acts are enough to put us off playing until they're fixed!
STALKER was one of those games that were plagued from the get-go by a bunch of technical problems, crashes, bugs, glitches and even poor gameplay choices at implementation. A few patches down the line and most of those problems vanished into the ether and were never spoken of again. The problem is, we get games for review �as they are� and it�s very rare we�ll get a day zero patch that fixes the problems we�ve encountered. Then there�s the whole rigmarole and box of active grenades that comes from daring to review something that�s been patched, because, there are people out there who don�t have an active internet connection and can�t get the patch.
STALKER: Clear Sky, the official prequel to the events from STALKER follows in the STALKER tradition, laden with issues from the start and a few departures that endeared STALKER to its many fans. It isn�t a bad game, it isn�t a good game, and it�s pretty much an average game that will probably become much better when the community or the developers fix the technical difficulties and crashes that happen all too often.
There are bugged mission triggers; these are almost the staple of the RPG-like FPS that is STALKER. Sometimes they work but more often than not they don�t, leaving you in the middle of the Zone looking around and waiting for an attack to come for hours, an attack that never arrives. I often picture a bunch of sneaky soldiers sitting there sipping tea and eating cake off elsewhere in the game world, laughing at the poor player as they wait around in the radioactive rain.
The first game was packed with atmosphere, it was a truly great experience (if flawed) and offered an open-world shooter with its post-apocalyptic disaster feel, varied environments, mercenary factions and mutants. There were some truly amazing sequences in that game that rivalled the big budget titles. Clear Sky attempts to capture some of that glory but falls short in some places. I would love to explain the story to you, but it�s like STALKER, it�s not a great story and the dialogue and voice work leaves a lot to be desired.
A lot of the background voices are in Russian and so you lose a lot in translation, yet I suppose it keeps the flavour of the Zone.
You often feel a lot like your character, lost, knocked out by an anomaly you awaken and meet a group known as Clear Sky. That�s about all I can tell you, then it�s up to you to go around and work for the various factions and do missions. The world that�s presented in Clear Sky feels real, it�s the best implementation of an environment like this that I�ve seen since STALKER. There are numerous little details from the massive industrial sectors to the little camps out in the wild, especially effective at night.
The world is divided into zones again and there�s some loading, just like STALKER. There are guides that can port you around the zone you�re in, but there are no guides that can transfer you from zone to zone. There are also a few niggles that shatter the immersion, certain slopes that are a gentle incline but still can�t be climbed, fences that you can�t cross and the like.
What is impressive about STALKER: Clear Sky, when it works, is the various faction wars that happen throughout the game. These give a sense of reality to the Zone and life�you can picture a bunch of enemy soldiers that suddenly lay waste to an opposing faction�s temporary HQ and try to kill the defenders, should they succeed they will immediately occupy that territory and begin to defend it against all comers, including you.
This isn�t just side-dish stuff, these faction wars help reward the player with a sense of accomplishment as well as in-game rewards. Flush the enemy out of a zone and you�ll have an easier time of it; you�ll encounter friendly patrols that will help out and so on. This is really where games like this shine. You can find NPCs to trade with, access sub missions and other elements that make the game more interesting. The major gripe I have is that the triggers are often bugged, so you�re out there waiting for a war to happen and it never does.
Clear Sky has been beefed up in terms of combat as well, the enemy AI has been polished and now they have a ninja-like ability to land a grenade right between your eyes even in the dark. Hopefully they�ll tweak this to be a little more realistic in coming patches. A firefight with a few guards and so on is a challenge, a full scale gun battle is a nightmare and extremely exhilarating as the enemy now use cover and concealment to their advantage far more than in STALKER.
The weapon upgrade system is back and it�s a huge cash sink this time around, you�ll spend ages taking every weapon and min/maxing it to the best potential only to realise that you�ve got to hunt around for more ka-ching. Artefacts used to be a good source of funds, they were littered around the original STALKER like candy in a store that sells sweets, seriously, and you couldn�t move five steps without finding one. Now in Clear Sky you�ll find them and they�ll be in dangerous areas, making each one a real hazard to get.
There are some really unforgivable bugs in the game, NPCS will vanish at random, not just one or two�but a whole region will disappear and refuse to return. That�s right; everyone will just up and vanish into the ether. I�ve had this happen twice now and a quick poke around the net confirmed that it�s not just me; several other gamers and even reviewers have experienced this problem. We are not alone (except when the NPCs vanish).
Bugs aside, the game has a visual presentation that makes it a treat on the eyes. It�s the attention to detail that drives STALKER: Clear Sky, from the expressions on the faces of the NPCs, the mutants, the rabid dogs, the whole damn world that unfolds as you travel from place to place. It�s brought to life with vibrant (if somewhat gritty) graphics and tremendous sound. Dawn, day, afternoon, evening, night and so on, all of these are presented with a gorgeous amount of graphical oomph, they flow seamlessly into one another and being under the stars even in a fierce thunderstorm is something wonderful.
We turned off the dynamic music after a while because it ruined the rest of the sound effects, the gun battles were truly stirring and the various spot effects were tremendous and added to the immersion right away.
STALKER: Clear Sky is one to keep an eye on, a few patches down the line it should be something like the original STALKER, but for now it�s far too buggy to stand as it is.

Girls Basketball: Bergen sets Clifton High School record
WAYNE -- Nothing like padding, err, enhancing the dossier for the Passaic County Tournament.
Just when the Clifton girls' basketball team needed a sweep of three county opponents, they delivered a sixth win in the last seven starts.
And, when the Mustangs were in dire need of a big-time performance, Jackie Bergen did it in record-setting style.
The 5-foot-6 senior scored a career-high 24 points, fueled by a silky touch from long-range, in Clifton's 46-34 victory over Wayne Hills on Tuesday in a Big North Conference interdivisional contest.
"Jackie was unconscious," Clifton coach Craig Alfano said.
Clinging to a 12-6 lead in the second quarter, Bergen went to work.
Splash. Splash. Splash. Splash. Splash!
That was Bergen tickling the twine from three-point range on five successive shots during a four-minute stretch that fueled Clifton's 30-10 lead at the break. She added two more treys in the third, finishing 7 of 8 from beyond the arc.
Bergen set a program record for most 3s (five) in a quarter and a single-game mark (seven).
"Awesome. I don't remember ever seeing anyone putting on a show like that. Jackie was on fire. She came out shooting and just stayed hot … unbelievable," Alfano said.

Buffalo 0-2. Losman really sucks.
Buffalo 0-2. Losman really sucks.
Damn Panthers lost, but atleast Steve Smith had 3 touchdowns.
Well that sucked.
On the bright side the Raiders didn't mail it in when the chips were down and actually showed some heart.
Still a ****ty finish though.
I hate Denver.
Can't wait for tonights game. It should be a good one.
I hate fantasy football. I start Favre week 1, he sucks. I start him week 2, he tears it up. It's cost me a win both weeks too.
Where are the days highlights on Sunday Night Football during halftime? I miss ESPN's fastest minute...
I just noticed a little green circular sticker on the back of all the quarterbacks helmets. Does anyone know what this is for?
I have the sinking feeling that AJ Smith just set us back to 2003-2004 by bring in Norv Turner. This team looks uninspired, uncomposed and flat-out unimpressive through the first two games. The defensive scheming is distinctly lacking Wade Phillips touches and Rivers looks like a first-year rookie.

I've been hearing good things about this winery lately. Have you tried any of their other wines? "Being drunk is a good disguise. I drink so I can talk to *******s. This includes me." | |||
Member |
lizardking, a long time ago I had one of their grenache, I believe it was their top bottling and it was excellent. More recently I had the VMR (viognier, marsanne, roussane) and that was just as good as this wine here. The 2009 is available locally and I am buying. | |||

Thanks spo. That's good to know. I think I might have to make a trip out there and taste through them all "Being drunk is a good disguise. I drink so I can talk to *******s. This includes me." | |||
