A Stochastic Four-State Model of Contingent Gating of Gap Junction Channels Containing Two "Fast" Gates Sensitive to Transjunctional Voltage Biophysical Journal, Volume 96, Issue 10, 20 May 2009, Pages 3936-3948 Nerijus Paulauskas, Mindaugas Pranevicius, Henrikas Pranevicius and Feliksas F. Bukauskas Abstract Connexins, a family of membrane proteins, form gap junction (GJ) channels that provide a direct pathway for electrical and metabolic signaling between cells. We developed a stochastic four-state model describing gating properties of homotypic and heterotypic GJ channels each composed of two hemichannels (connexons). GJ channel contain two "fast" gates (one per hemichannel) oriented opposite in respect to applied transjunctional voltage (Vj). The model uses a formal scheme of peace-linear aggregate and accounts for voltage distribution inside the pore of the channel depending on the state, unitary conductances and gating properties of each hemichannel. We assume that each hemichannel can be in the open state with conductance γh,o and in the residual state with conductance γh,res, and that both γh,o and γh,res rectifies. Gates can exhibit the same or different gating polarities. Gating of each hemichannel is determined by the fraction of Vj that falls across the hemichannel, and takes into account contingent gating when gating of one hemichannel depends on the state of apposed hemichannel. At the single-channel level, the model revealed the relationship between unitary conductances of hemichannels and GJ channels and how this relationship is affected by γh,o and γh,res rectification. Simulation of junctions containing up to several thousands of homotypic or heterotypic GJs has been used to reproduce experimentally measured macroscopic junctional current and Vj-dependent gating of GJs formed from different connexin isoforms. Vj-gating was simulated by imitating several frequently used experimental protocols: 1), consecutive Vj steps rising in amplitude, 2), slowly rising Vj ramps, and 3), series of Vj steps of high frequency. The model was used to predict Vj-gating of heterotypic GJs from characteristics of corresponding homotypic channels. The model allowed us to identify the parameters of Vj-gates under which small changes in the difference of holding potentials between cells forming heterotypic junctions effectively modulates cell-to-cell signaling from bidirectional to unidirectional. The proposed model can also be used to simulate gating properties of unapposed hemichannels. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (2900 kb) |
Gating Properties of Heterotypic Gap Junction Channels Formed of Connexins 40, 43, and 45 Biophysical Journal, Volume 92, Issue 6, 15 March 2007, Pages 1952-1965 Mindaugas Rackauskas, Maria M. Kreuzberg, Mindaugas Pranevicius, Klaus Willecke, Vytas K. Verselis and Feliksas F. Bukauskas Abstract Connexins (Cxs) 40, 43, and 45 are expressed in many different tissues, but most abundantly in the heart, blood vessels, and the nervous system. We examined formation and gating properties of heterotypic gap junction (GJ) channels assembled between cells expressing wild-type Cx40, Cx43, or Cx45 and their fusion forms tagged with color variants of green fluorescent protein. We show that these Cxs, with exception of Cxs 40 and 43, are compatible to form functional heterotypic GJ channels. Cx40 and Cx43 hemichannels are unable or effectively impaired in their ability to dock and/or assemble into junctional plaques. When cells expressing Cx45 contacted those expressing Cx40 or Cx43 they readily formed junctional plaques with cell-cell coupling characterized by asymmetric junctional conductance dependence on transjunctional voltage, Vj. Cx40/Cx45 heterotypic GJ channels preferentially exhibit Vj-dependent gating transitions between open and residual states with a conductance of ∼42pS; transitions between fully open and closed states with conductance of ∼52pS in magnitude occur at substantially lower (∼10-fold) frequency. Cx40/Cx45 junctions demonstrate electrical signal transfer asymmetry that can be modulated between unidirectional and bidirectional by small changes in the difference between holding potentials of the coupled cells. Furthermore, both fast and slow gating mechanisms of Cx40 exhibit a negative gating polarity. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (1031 kb) |
Correlative Studies of Gating in Cx46 and Cx50 Hemichannels and Gap Junction Channels Biophysical Journal, Volume 88, Issue 3, 1 March 2005, Pages 1725-1739 Miduturu Srinivas, Jack Kronengold, Feliksas F. Bukauskas, Thaddeus A. Bargiello and Vytas K. Verselis Abstract Transjunctional voltage (Vj) gating of gap junction (GJ) channels formed of connexins has been proposed to occur by gating of the component hemichannels. We took advantage of the ability of Cx46 and Cx50 to function as unapposed hemichannels to identify gating properties intrinsic to hemichannels and how they contribute to gating of GJ channels. We show that Cx46 and Cx50 hemichannels contain two distinct gating mechanisms that generate reductions in conductance for both membrane polarities. At positive voltages, gating is similar in Cx46 and Cx50 hemichannels, primarily showing increased transitioning to long-lived substates. At negative voltages, Cx46 currents deactivate completely and the underlying single hemichannels exhibit transitions to a fully closed state. In contrast, Cx50 currents do not deactivate completely at negative voltages and the underlying single hemichannels predominantly exhibit transitions to various substates. Transitions to a fully closed state occur, but are infrequent. In the respective GJ channels, both forms of gating contribute to the reduction in conductance by Vj. However, examination of gating of mutant hemichannels and GJ channels in which the Asp at position 3 was replaced with Asn (D3N) showed that the positive hemichannel gate predominantly closes Cx50 GJs, whereas the negative hemichannel gate predominantly closes Cx46 GJs in response to Vj. We also report, for the first time, single Cx50 hemichannels in oocytes to be inwardly rectifying, high conductance channels (γ=470 pS). The antimalarial drug mefloquine, which selectively blocks Cx50 and not Cx46 GJs, shows the same selectivity in Cx50 and Cx46 hemichannels indicating that the actions of such uncoupling agents, like voltage gating, are intrinsic hemichannel properties.

Gap-junction (GJ) channels formed of connexin (Cx) proteins provide a direct pathway for electrical and metabolic cell-cell interaction. Each hemichannel in the GJ channel contains fast and slow gates that are sensitive to transjunctional voltage (Vj). We developed a stochastic 16-state model (S16SM) that details the operation of two fast and two slow gates in series to describe the gating properties of homotypic and heterotypic GJ channels. The operation of each gate depends on the fraction of Vj that falls across the gate (VG), which varies depending on the states of three other gates in series, as well as on parameters of the fast and slow gates characterizing 1), the steepness of each gate's open probability on VG; 2), the voltage at which the open probability of each gate equals 0.5; 3), the gating polarity; and 4), the unitary conductances of the gates and their rectification depending on VG. S16SM allows for the simulation of junctional current dynamics and the dependence of steady-state junctional conductance (gj,ss) on Vj. We combined global coordinate optimization algorithms with S16SM to evaluate the gating parameters of fast and slow gates from experimentally measured gj,ss-Vj dependencies in cells expressing different Cx isoforms and forming homotypic and/or heterotypic GJ channels.

I totally recommend Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver. The book really stuck out to me because mainly it had a lot to do with real life and how people take too many things for granted. The whole idea of being able to do something over, and see what would happen if you did something different, even for one day, is facinating and totally mind blowing.
I'd also recommend Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher. Again this book had a lot to do with, 'what could happen if I did this?' or 'if only someone cared a little more..'
I liked how well the book was wrote... (written?) and the way Jay Asher told the story, which was on cassette tapes as though two people were telling the story.
The whole idea of finding out why someone committed suicide and learning that you were one of the many reasons is kinda sad, but I think a story like that needed to be told because it showed how everything eventually adds up. Even small unimportant things.
Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. Really good, and I loved how the first chapter was the last chapter. Hes a real good writer and the story is something that hasnt been done before and its just fricken fantastic.
One last book, If I stay by Gayle Forman. Im not really sure how to describe the book partly becuase I read it a while ago.. Like 6 months ago. But, it was a book that stuck with me, and I know I liked the plot and how it was wrote...(written?)
Oh and @jean cebrian Paulo Coelho is great, though I only read The Alchemist, I'll have to look into his other works.

Sirius XM CEO to step down Feb. 1
ASSOCIATED PRESS October 23, 2012 4:02PM
Sirius XM Radio CEO Mel Karmazin is planning to step down early next year.
Sirius XM said Tuesday that the 69-year-old Karmazin will leave Feb. 1. He will also leave the company's board.
Karmazin has been Sirius XM's CEO since 2004. There has been speculation Karmazin would leave the company after an expected takeover by Liberty Media Corp., which is seeking a controlling interest in the satellite radio provider.
Liberty has amassed a 47.3 percent stake in Sirius XM, and the Federal Communications Commission is currently considering Liberty's proposal to take control of the company.
Karmazin's contract expires at the end of this year, but he will stay for another month to help transition a new CEO.
The company's board has formed a committee to search for a new CEO.

Asbestos cement roofing wear & damage signs: this article provides a photo guide and text that can identify the condition of cement asbestos roofing products like asbestos-cement roof shingles. Our page top photo shows a cement-asbestos roof that is worn out and leaky. Asbestos cement roof shingles were in popular use in the U.S. from the 1920's (est) through the 1960's (est) and were sold in the U.S. into the 1970's and according to some sources even in the 1980's. Green links show where you are. © Copyright 2014 InspectApedia.com, All Rights Reserved. Some wear signs to watch for on cement asbestos roofsThe mixture of asbestos fibers and portland cement to form a hard material that was was durable and fire resistant is credited to Ludwig Hatschek who, in 1900, came up with the name Eternit associated with a U.S. producer of these products. The typical life expectancy of an cement asbestos shingle roof was given as 30 years, But we have seen these roofs that were now 50 years old in good condition. Typical roof wear or failure patterns are either failure of the shingle fasteners or broken and falling shingles. Here are signs of trouble with asbestos-cement roofs:
Asbestos Cement or Fiber Cement Failure Class Action Lawsuit & SettlementsCal-Shake® Roofing Class Action Lawsuit - 1986-1995 RoofsHow To Identify Cal-Shake Shakes (Cal-Shake, Cal-Slate, Cal-Clay Roofing)Cal-Shake Shakes are a fiber cement roofing product made to look like wood shakes. Cal-Shake Inc. also manufactured Cal-Slate and Cal-Clay, both of which are included in this settlement. Cal-Shake Shakes were manufactured as shakes and distributed between 1980 and 1995. Please review the information below to see if you have Cal-Shake Shakes installed on your roof.

You do not have a Cal-Shake Shake Roof if: The shakes on your roof are made of wood The cement composite shakes on your roof were manufactured by: American Cemwood, NatureGuard, Terra Shake, FireFree®, Hardie Shake, Monier, Owens Corning Mira Vista, Protex. To be a member of the New Cal-Shake Settlement Class, your Cal-Shake roof must have been manufactured between February 1, 1986 and March 31, 1995. The date of manufacture is not marked on the Shake, but if your roof was installed within this period you are probably a member of the New Cal-Shake Settlement Class. People whose roofs were installed very early in this time period might have Old Cal-Shake roofs. - Web Search 07/12/2010, original source http://www.calshakeclassaction.com/ProductIDnew.html Hardi-Shake Roofing Class Action Lawsuit & SettlementHardiShake©, MaxiShake©, and Cemwood© produced by James Hardie Building Products (JHBP) and sold as lifetime roofing, were subject of a class action lawsuit for early roof wear or failures that appeared as softening, breaking, chipping, cracking, delaminating, or color changes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about cement asbestos roofing wear, damage, warranty claims, & about Hardie Shake shinglesDo HardiShakes Contain Asbestos?Question: I am trying to find out if the old Hardie Shake shingle contained any asbestos? Reply: Hardie Shakes, Asbestos? Unlikely - Wood Fiber Based Products are Not AsbestosModern HardieShake shingles are a [wood-] fiber cement product produced by mixing sand, wood fibers, and cement, rolled to about 1/4" thick and laminated to resist moisture. HardiShake shingle failures manifest as cracked shingles and on older roofs that we have inspected, softening, flaking, and delaminating. Asbestos fibres would not be expected to be used in wood fiber based products: for example these wood fiber based cementious shingles were designed specifically in search for a replacement for cement-asbestos shingles. So we would not expect to find asbestos in a wood-fiber shingle product. You should contact James Hardie Building Products in the U.S. or other countries directly for product details, brochures, and installation information. James Hardie was indeed involved in asbestos liability claims regarding asbestos as we discuss at James Hardie Company, Asbestos, Fiber Cement Siding, & HIstory found in our article JamesHardie HardiePlank Siding. (Asbestos production, distribution, and used in building products, and more obscure, asbestos was used on occasion in certain carpet padding (see CARPETING & INDOOR AIR QUALITY) made from recycled bags and asbestos waste was used in driveways and garage floors). ...

Kilimanjaro Special - Never Again
Jim Eite first summited Kilimanjaro in 2000, Paul Goldstein in 1993. Between them they have done a century of ascents successfully. They have both put on the record that 'if anyone ever sees them again anywhere near this 'hill' to immediately put them on a bus to Zanzibar.' So much for that, both are now going to guide this trek one last time and for a very worthy reason.
They have an enviable record of putting trekkers on top of Africa, and, with their team of guides and porters will ensure every chance of bagging this considerable, fabled peak. Both are committed to advancing the skills and livelihood of their porters and are both doing their swansong treks for the Porter Schools in Tarakea, Arusha and Marangu. For anyone who has harboured a desire to conquer Kilimanjaro, this is a superb opportunity to do so successfully. A donation of £50 per person will be added onto the tour price for the porters school project. This project was set up by Exodus in 2004, creating three schools to teach English to the porters during the non trekking rainy seasons
This successful initiative has provided the porters with essential skills to help them progress in the local tourism industry, both with our local partners, and with other companies in the area. The English lessons will help the porters to become cooks, assistant guides or even chief guides where being able to converse with clients is an essential skill.
For potential trekkers, here are Jim and Paul's top tips for success. If this appeals to you then they look forward to welcoming you:

- Hare and the tortoise - Go slow, really slow on the mountain, slow acclimatization is critical, you win no prizes for being first into camp each day.
- Water, water everywhere - Yes you may be up all night, but like an engine needs oil, so does a body, especially at altitude. Make sure you have plenty of it.
- Aural hygiene - Ear plugs? Bring them, especially if you are with Jim! If you think people snore at sea level, try 4000m!
- Chocoholics - appetite becomes jaded above 3500m, you may well think power bars and intravenous isotonic beverages help, but have you tasted them?! Chocolate is very temporary, but awfully good.
- No pain, no gain - this will hurt, it affects people differently and some do not make it. However a decent pain threshold and positive attitude is the hardest currency of all, good luck on the mountain.
Paul's Rongai Route departure: 3 September 08
Jim's Northern Circuit departure: Tuesday 13th Jan - Fri 23rd Jan (land only dates)
Both will be doing it to support our Kilimanjaro porters school project. Please call the Sales Team for details about these two special departures.

Who Knits At A Hockey Game? Pens Lose
Best thing about being a hockey blogger is that we don't have to write about games when we don't want to.
Have to feel bad for the beat writers of the Pens and people that actually have to get all in depth.
Oh wait, beat writers don't do that in Pittsburgh anyway. woooooooooo
If you've watched hockey long enough, you know that there are games like this in an 82 game slate.
Like really what else is there to say?
Seriously, though if you're bashing people right now. You don't know what you're talking about.
Good for Minnesota, though. They'll be pissed when they won't win the lottery because they won this game.
The only two things people will bring out of this game:
A. This lady apparently knitting behind the Pens bench:
Guess you could say she was "defying ordinary."
But for real, those are like 144 dollar tix. David Morehouse's head just exploded.
B. Crosby fought some guy.
No idea why the linesman don't let them go. Crosby's check to the NHL must have cleared. Can't wait to hate all week.
Check out the bizarre FSN note:
Replace furnace filters regularly? No shit.
More thoughts:
- Chris Bourque dressed up as invisible for Halloween.
- Al Goligoski 23 shifts, 24:48 minutes played. Average of 1:04 per shift. What a player
- Dupuis is playing good hockey, had a bunch of chances versus Columbus, in addition to his goal last night.
- Great pass by Orpik to Kunitz. Huge block by Havlat.
- Skoula continues to impress.
- Wild scored with .1 second left in the first.
- Cal Clusterfuck is a pretty good defenseman for Minnesota.
- Halloween costumes and pumpkins montage today some time. Suck it.
- Paranormal Activity is decent. The mental mistakes by the guy in that movie are surreal.
Uh really Yahoo? "stunning," loss? Pens have lost three games all year. Two out of three Yahoo has refered to it as "stunning."
Get real.

Gwinnett Daily Post
GAINESVILLE — Officials want to change the name of a road to help drive tourists to the Lake Lanier Islands resort area.
If the plan is approved, Friendship Road would become Lanier Islands Parkway.
The Hall County Planning Commission is set to consider the matter at its Jan. 22 meeting.
Hall County spokeswoman Katie Crumley says officials want to drive tourists to the Lake Lanier Islands resort since it's an economic engine and brings tax money to the county. She said the name change would spur more visits to Lake Lanier Islands.

just go and screw up all the GPS devices again. Thanks DOT. Can't leave anything alone. Tell us what is wrong with the present name? Someone must have thought is was good at one time!

Correct me if I'm worng, newer GPS's keep up with road name changes, you just have to up-date the device.

If I want to drive customers to my business I advertise. I would even bet that there are folks who work at the GDP that would be willing to sell you some. It's a crazy concept but it works!

When your child talks politely or pleasantly, take notice, and respond. Saying, "I like the way you used your manners," will show your child that her efforts don't go unappreciated, and that she doesn't have to resort to whining to get what she needs.
The same goes for older children and teens. If your teen approaches you in a mature manner about something she needs or wants, responding positively will help keep this trend going.

The Yanks have had half of the team shut down for most of the season, so what is one more player? Jeter, Rodriguez, Texeira, Granderson, for most of the season. A slew of other players for parts of it. It is amazing that they were even competing for a playoff berth down the stretch!
Yankees ace C.C. Sabathia out for season with strained hamstring
Pitcher C.C. Sabathia is finished for the season after straining his hamstring, the Yankees announced on Monday. The strain is in Sabathia's left leg and, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post, will take at least 2 months to recover.
New York's postseason chances are fading as the season nears its end. The Yankees, losers in six of their past nine games, trail the Cleveland Indians by four games for the second American League Wild Card spot with only six games remaining in the season. Sabathia, a six-time All-Star and the 2007 Cy Young Award winner, will finish the season with a 4.78 ERA and 14-13 record, his worst numbers since joining the Yankees in 2009.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- As Britton Banowsky hurried to catch a flight back out of Nashville, Tenn., he was hoping the realignment madness would end after today.
That's when the announcement of the University of Tulsa's departure to the Big East is expected to take place.
Conference USA's replacement for Tulsa came on board Monday, as commissioner Banowsky welcomed Western Kentucky into the league. The Bowling Green-based school will enter C-USA on July 1, 2014, ending a 32-year relationship with the Sun Belt Conference.
The league's press release Monday still listed Tulsa as a member, but that is expected to change today. The Tulsa World newspaper reported that the school will make its announcement today that it is switching homes, also beginning in 2014.
Banowsky said he, too, expects Tulsa to leave, and hopes that is the last exit in the recent wave of realignment. The Golden Hurricane will be the seventh program to jump to the soon-to-be-named Big East.
"Somebody asked me when the merry-go-round was going to stop," Banowsky said. "I said, 'I don't know, but somebody needs to unplug it.'"
In the 2005-13 era with the same 12-school C-USA lineup, Tulsa has won 49 championships in all sports, more than double of any other school. WKU has enjoyed similar dominance in the Sun Belt - it has captured 86 titles since 2000.
When Banowsky investigated the Western Kentucky program a little further during the application process, he was pleasantly surprised to see the depth of tradition in men's basketball. The Hilltoppers carry the eighth-highest all-time winning percentage in NCAA history and own 42 conference championships.
"I can make the case that men's basketball is going to be more robust than in the past, even with the loss of Memphis," Banowsky said.
So here is the recap of exits and entrances in the league:

When my former neighbors' great-grandson learned that his grandmother grew up in a home without air conditioning, he bombarded her with questions: "How on earth did you keep cool?" Listening to her explanation reminded me of my own childhood experiences dealing with hot summer days. She told the 11-year-old that the nearest thing her family had to an air-conditioner was a shady spot beneath a weeping willow tree.

Thiago Sarkis of Brazil's Roadie Crew magazine recently conducted an interview with bassist Shane Embury of British grindcore pioneers NAPALM DEATH. Several excerpts from the chat follow below.
On the metal and punk roots of NAPALM DEATH:
Shane: "Well, this lineup of the band has been together since 1991, but all of us at one time were metalheads; that's our background as kids! Speaking for myself, I got into punk around 1982-83, and I think the other guys who are younger just a little later. I got into hardcore through my friend's stepbrother and then into tape trading in 1984 and then finally it kept growing up until I came across the punk scene in Birmingham, but I have always held onto my metal roots. I got into guitar music at the age of 6 with bands like SLADE and THE SWEET as my mom used to buy me the records, I then heard JUDAS PRIEST when I was 9 or 10 and it went from there, really. I was always attracted to the loudness of the music, the craziness and the guitar sound. I used to bash the shit out of my grandmother's water buckets, so I think when you do that as a kid, you are not going to join a reggae band! Some of my favorite metal bands are JUDAS PRIEST, BLACK SABBATH (the Dio period is my favorite), TYGERS OF PAN TANG, RAVEN, SAXON, SATAN, DIAMOND HEAD, ACCEPT… Too many to mention."
On new songs and upcoming releases:
Shane: "In the future, we want o be able to do more stuff like [the single 'Legacy Was Yesterday']. We are planning to release some splits in the future as well and so we are going to record some songs next month, actually. It's fun. We have plenty more songs to record, so 'Legacy Was Yesterday' was especially for Albert at Decibel [magazine] and it's nice to have an exclusive like that. We have a split planned with THE MELVINS which will come out this year and also another couple of split with some other bands but for now it's a secret. They are certainly fun to do."
On the friendship between the members of NAPALM DEATH:
Shane: "We are good friends, and also, I guess you could say, brothers. But as most brothers do, we fight at times about what we feel is right and at times this can cause uncomfortableness, but it passes and we move forward. Sometimes I don't know how we get over the arguments and move on, but we do. Sometimes life on the road can feel like a very surreal journey and you feel very disconnected from home and each other, but we have been together as friends so long now that we can give each other space, and yes, we have fun not all the time, but we still have some great laughs on the road. It's also still very nice and important to meet our friends from around the world. It's at these times that you realize how lucky you are to be doing what you do, but perhaps we are an exception, since I have seen a lot of bands who don't interact that well with each other. We are lucky."
On illegal music downloading:
Shane: "I know that 'Smear Campaign' was available to download two weeks after we had finished the record, but I think other powers were at work there. It [illegal downloads] is obviously affecting the record labels, but we, as a band, have been touring like crazy the past few years and perhaps that is a little bit down to kids downloading the record and checking it out. I just don't know. My feelings are mixed on this whole subject and I think that stems from me being a tape-trader back in the day. I think that genuine fans will probably buy the record or a version of it if they like it. I have to be honest — especially here in the U.K., when CDs first came out, they were just too fucking expensive and technology came along and kicked the industry in the ass. I just know that as a musician the rules have changed, but playing live which for me is a big part of the whole thing is as intense as it's always been."
On the early days of NAPALM DEATH:
Shane: "I live very close the place where I first saw NAPALM DEATH. It's a pub called The Mermaid. They are knocking that building down now. NAPALM DEATH was a three-piece and I loved the band instantly. They had the perfect blend of CELTIC FROST-inspired metal riffs and blasting savage hardcore. Mick [Harris], as a drummer, was so exciting to see they became my favorite band and I became great friends with the three of them and traveled with them to many shows. My biggest regret, really, is that I did not join them when Nic Bullen asked me too as I would have played on 'Scum', on the B-side in reality. I just sat in the studio when they recorded the A-side, but the band made such a massive impact on my life and still does to this day."
On his pre-NAPALM DEATH bands WARHAMMER and AZAGTHOTH:
Shane: "I came from a very small town called Broseley, which is in the county of Shropshire — 40 miles from Birmingham. I was one of four friends into metal and we were tape-trading with Bill Steer and people like that and we were getting into faster music like POSSESSED and DEATH, so we formed WARHAMMER, who were, I guess, the first death metal band in the U.K. before ONSLAUGHT. We had a demo called 'Abbattoir Of Death' and I originally started playing drums in that band. I had always wanted to play in a band since I was 6 or 7, so this was one step further towards my dream. AZAGTHOTH was a band I played in with the guitar player of WARHAMMER, a guy called Pete Giles, who later played in many bands, one of them being SCALPLOCK. WARHAMMER's and AZAGTHOTH's music was very intense death metal."
On the possibility of new material from INSIDIOUS DISEASE, his side-project with DIMMU BORGIR's Silenoz:
Shane: "I saw Silenoz in Oslo the other week when my other band LOCK UP played and we discussed working on some new material. Let's hope we can do something again soon."
On his memories of "Utopia Banished", the NAPALM DEATH album which was released 20 years ago:
Shane: "That was the first album that Danny Herrera [drums] played on, so it was I guess an important one as everyone was looking to see if we could pull it off without Mick. We had a lot of fun in the studio. I feel the guitars are not loud enough on that mix of the record, though, but as an album, it's a very intense record with a lot of manic riffs. We were very young, but as a band we were enjoying hanging out together a lot and we were very focused on making the record a good album. I am very proud of the album. As I said, I think it could have had louder guitars on the album but Danny's drumming on that album is great and very spontaneous."
On NAPALM DEATH's plans for the immediate future:
Shane: "The band will head to the States for the first time in three years to play the Maryland Deathfest. NAPALM also plans to release a few split releases this year, all being well, with MELVINS, CONVERGE and MUNICIPAL WASTE. These will take time to come together, though, but it's a nice break from the norm of just recording album after album."

As I've mentioned before, INSTEON is a new home automation technology from the folks at Smarthome, Inc. But up until today, Mac users couldn't join the fun because all of the software support for the protocol was happening on Windows and Linux. Perceptive Automation has changed that with the release of a public beta version of Indigo 1.8.0 — check out the announcement here.
If you're ready to dive in, the best deal is the Insteon starter kit and the PowerLinc V2 USB computer interface.
If you left home automation because of X10's quirks, now is a good time to rejoin the fold; by all reports INSTEON is much faster and more reliable. Or, if you're just getting started, you might as well get the very latest so you can start out on the right foot, eh?
Are you ready to get on board with INSTEON?

Nov 10, 2011i waited out side all night for this game, pre purchased too of course and needless to say..
this game is EPIC!!!
definitely worth the money and wait
the new unlocks and guns are awesome, good graphics and game play
9/10 -
Nov 11, 2011Que de deception ! aucun renouveau si ce n'est quelques carte en plus ! de la poudre au yeux ! on à l'impression que les developpeur se sont endormis sur un succes qui est perte de qualité ! payer autant pour cela c'est prendre le joueur pour une vache a lait ! c simple MW c fini pour moi !

Nov 11, 2011I was till this game a fan of MW series. I'm not afraid of bugs or lags. But MW3 was a huge disappointment, cause it's a real degradation for the series. Now the graphic is more blurry, but cause it doesn't handle AA good, things like fences flicker. And really - that's not a graphic for 2011. The only thing why I brought the game was for the Story, everything else turned out unpolished and old.
Nov 11, 2011
Nov 11, 2011Better than expected. I don't need better graphics (my PC is the same as MW2). I need a good story and making me feel I am inside an action film. I loved MW2 multiplayer (more than Black Ops) and I love MW3 multiplayer.
Nov 11, 2011

Nov 11, 2011Everyone who gives this game less then 5 is a compleet retard that doesn't know anything about revieuwing a game.
Storyline: 9/10
Multiplayer: 8/10
Gameplay: 9/10
Engine: 5/10
I gave 10 because i have to counter al you retards and fanboys -
Nov 11, 2011
Nov 11, 2011fully optimized compared to mw2 and do not feel lost in the map and is visually pleasing to the eyes.MW3 gives you much fun the reason is your ADDICTIVE MULTIPLAYER, dynamic and competitive... btw you need good reflexes in this game...
Nov 12, 2011I love COD im a fanboy. But to release a game like this is a joke. I'm prestige 15 in blackops and play it all the time. The idea that there are no dedicated ranked servers make this game a steaming pile of crap. I'll never play this game again. Waste of money and time. I won't play the next cod unless they have dedicated servers. Terrible terrible game. Absolutely Terrible.
Nov 12, 2011This will be the last Call of Duty game I will ever buy. Modern Warfare 2 were great on Xbox 360. Black Ops were great with dedicated servers. Then Infinity Wards decides to go back in time, and re-use peer 2 peer so people can cheat, and have massive **** lag. If you are looking for a competitive game, look for any game than this. Hopefully I wont get fooled again next year.
Nov 12, 2011Decent game, have both bf3 and mw3. Switch between the two when i get bored of it. Overall I enjoyed both games equally. Although I love battlefields ,multilayer more its a nice change to switch to mw3 once in awhile.
Nov 12, 2011
Nov 13, 2011
Nov 13, 2011Ridiculously bad. It's a carbon copy of mw2 and and best should be called MW2.5. Same engine, too. I never really expect much from Activision anyways, since everyone who works there is a piece of dirt anyways. Same **** different november.
Nov 13, 2011In 2011, 18 player MP with , no lean/peek, reduced playability of S&D. This game is 'consolized' beyond recognition.
For this price, thanks, but no thanks.
Moving over to Red Orchestra 2.
Adios CoD/MW! Until CoD4MW it was nice knowing you. -
Nov 13, 2011
Nov 13, 2011
Nov 13, 2011This game is so bad I don't know where to begin. It looks cartoony, you can't pick your own server, there's nothing new. Save your money. I played all the COD games and MW3 is so lame it's like a pre-version of all of them. Like they went backwards in development.
Nov 13, 2011Modern Warfare 1, Modern Warfare 2, Black Ops, Modern Warfare 3...
Always the same game since 5 years (same engine, same IA, same scripts...).
Activision does not care about players. -
Nov 13, 2011Geez I signed up on this site just so I could say how bad this is. What the hell were they thinking? Im so fecking tired of this stupid consolized **** Just check for the video "if quake was done today" and you see what I mean. total crap.

Nov 20, 2011
Nov 14, 2011This game is pretty good. Better than its predecessor.
I especially enjoyed the mission called 'No Russian', where you'd destroy an entire airport. That was fun.
Huh? That wasn't in this game? Oh, that was MW2? There's no difference. Whatsoever. Don't even bother wasting your money on this, go play MW or MW2 instead. -
Nov 14, 2011Seriously don't be a sheep and just blindly buy this game because it only motivate the publishers or creators to milk the game even more then it already. This game is practically a big map pack from MW2 and most of the building were reused
Nov 14, 2011This is just a map pack for call of duty mw2. Would you pay $60 for a map pack? All they did was change the 2 to a 3. I would have given it a five but after reading about how they were trying to boost metacritic scores I needed to bring the score down to where it belongs.
Nov 14, 2011Really you wwant to **** about the reviews than do a better JOB. UNfu*king believable hacking already, **** servers, rehashed maps from previous games the list goes on and on and you know they will have some $20 add on in 3 months. Hey activision trying making a game thats fair for everybody or is that TTTTTTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much to ask.
Nov 14, 2011I think the overall comments presented are indicative of what I also feel -- rehash of Modern Warfare 2 AND reusing so much of MW2's assets. In fact, it's no where near as good as MW2 with it's extremely small maps (and thus spawn issues) and P2P crap.
It's really vexing that they resell the same game with slight modifications -- and THEN -- have the AUDACITY to price it at FULL price. -
Nov 14, 2011I used to be fan of COD since COD2. But I am sorry enough is enough! This game is just same ol same! I may as well play MW2 and have exact same experience! Save your money and don't buy this game or you will be sorry as I am. P.S.
It's looks like we are back in to 2007. Graphics are horrible for 2011!!!!! -
Nov 14, 2011IW/ Activation really need to read and listen. I cant be bothered to go over the same negative's that have been mentioned time and time again.
COD should cater online competitive play, regardless of the platform, a patch designed to iron out these can be EASILY made. -
Nov 14, 2011I made an account, just so i can submit a review for this terrible game.
all this is, is a MW2 expansion pack... SAME exact thing as MW2, just new story and multiplayer maps...
Can they get any more original? at least they tried making a new game after CoD4, with MW2.. but this is just lazy.. -
Nov 14, 2011
Nov 14, 2011
Nov 14, 2011Total over hyped trash, same game different year. Save yourself $60 and play the Call of Duty game you already have! This game should just be sold as a MW2 expansion pack. The game literally reuses textures and models from past CoD games, including CoD4.
Nov 14, 2011
Nov 14, 2011
Nov 14, 2011This is Modern warfare 2 expansion pack for 60$. Single player campaign is ok. Multiplayer sucks. NO dedicated ranked server so Matchmaking sucks. Robert bowling is liar and i don't know how can anyone sleeps at night with all those lies. He is shameless, COD is dead. DO not buy this crap. Better support Indie games or MMORPG. Stay away from this piece of poop.

Nov 14, 2011Es una copia del MW2 total, no añaden nada nuevo y se estan dejando llevar por el nombre de la IP sin dar ninguna novedad ni arriesgarse en nada, ha llegado un punto en el que jugar al COD es lo mismo en su version 1 que 1.000 y, aunque no es un mal juego, pagar 70â

Nov 15, 2011If you are a fan of fast-paced shooters, and/or enjoyed MW2, you'll like this game. Haters gonna hate, but the fact is that the Call of Duty franchise does not make GOOD games, they make FUN games, which is why I play games.

Nov 16, 2011It's a solid game with the strongest singleplayer of the entire series with some amazing moments and decent visuals for the ageing engine. Coop is solid with survival mode and spec op missions. The multiplayer maybe more of the same but thats not a bad thing as the majority still love it.

Nov 19, 2011If anyone expected this game to be differant they obviously didn't realize that business is ran a certain way. MW3 is obviously a continuation - And I Love It
They continued the single player story perfectly with all the favorite characters.
I won't say this game is perfect - It's got alot of the same stupid bugs as the last games. BUT IT IS GREAT FUN TO PLAY! -
Nov 19, 2011this low score is due to the idiots who can not enjoy a good game rather than get involved with the game, they are more concerned with minimum graphics detail.
Nov 19, 2011
Nov 20, 2011MW1 was great, MW 2 a bit less great, and MW3 a bit less great. Still a nice game if you've never played MW before. This is more of a nice expansion to MW2 really. Not worth the full game's price or title.
Nov 21, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Nov 26, 2011
Nov 26, 2011Even a game that is deemed to be a copy of a previously released version should be given more than a 2. The game isn't bad. Are there many new innovative game mechanics? No. Is it a game worthy of a 2? God no.
Dec 17, 2011

Jan 18, 2012This game in terrible from the start to end. Bad gameplay, bad desigh, terrible graphics and more. Call of Duty sucks becouse these game is for kids and console boys. End.

Feb 18, 2012What a bad game. The singleplayer is 4 hours long and the multiplayer is exactly the same **** that the other CODs since Modern Warfare 1. I wouldn't even pay $10 for this piece of crap. Also, no control support, DLCs with 3 maps for $15, the Activision support is **** etc. If you find this a good game, you seriously need to shoot yourself.

Mar 6, 2012Let's be honest, no game deserves a 0. Nice single campaign, but the multiplayer experience is practically the same as MW2. So, in my opinion, not worthly of paying $59.99 for basically a cloned game.
Mar 6, 2012Very nice DLC you have there! But its not a game, just DLC. You are just used by EA to get more and more money. Learn to think please ;) Just look - everyone are paying that same cash for longer, better looking and better in storyline games.
Mar 6, 2012they mislabeled this game was "mw3" even though it's just mw2. this is an embarrassment to gaming. i wonder how many more rehashes they will produce?

Apr 10, 2012Thus, I can't recommend buying this unless you (still) like the fast pace, the customizable weaponry and the short matches, of about 10 minutes each. With the very important mention that, essentially, nothing has changed.
Jan 20, 2012Stunning campaign with epic moments makes this third installment of Modern Warfare a great show with the best approach to players. No need to mention an excellent multiplayer. [Dec 2011]
Jan 9, 2012If you own any previous COD, there's little reason to buy MW3. [Jan 2012, p.50]

The Integrated Luminosity for the period from 2/14/11 to 2/21/11 was 33.64 pb-1 (inverse picobarns). NuMI reported receiving 7.42E18 protons on target during this same period. Friday Feb 18 The day shift began with Operations monitoring the Tevatron (TEV) store 8510 (18.88E30) and the Recycler stash (151.6E10), with the Antiproton Source (Pbar) stacking (58.2E10), with the Pelletron work continuing, with the Linac, Booster, and Main Injector (MI) operating normally, with the NuMI and MiniBooNE experiments taking beam, and with the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) and D-Zero (D0) using the colliding beams. During the day shift, Operations reported some beam position problems with store 8510 at sector D0. TEV personnel reported a vacuum leak on the D17 collimators. Operations terminated the store and prepared the TEV for access to begin repairs. Operations reported the completion of the Pelletron work; Electron Cooling (ECool) personnel began filling the Pelletron tank with the insulating gas (SF6). When that is finished, the gas has to have its water removed During the evening shift, Vacuum personnel reported completing their TEV vacuum work at D17. Operators put the TEV into HEP shot setup at the end of shift. The Pelletron gas drying continued. Saturday Feb 19 The midnight shift began with the TEV in shot setup, with Operations monitoring the stash (62.5E10), with Pbar stacking (238.5E10), and with NuMI and MiniBooNE taking beam. During the midnight shift, Operations established store 8514 with an average initial luminosity (AIL) of 109.7E30. Operations reported that the Pelletron turn on continued until 7 AM, when a problem developed requiring the removal of the SF6 for another Pelletron tank access. During the day shift, Operations terminated store 8514 early in the shift. Operations established store 8515 at 10 AM with an AIL of 109.6E30. During the evening shift, Operations terminated store 8515 at 6 PM. Operations established store 8516 at 7:15 PM with an AIL of 103.4E30. Operations reported that the ECool personnel had completed their Pelletron repairs and began filling the tank with the SF6 again. Sunday Feb 20 The midnight shift began with Operations monitoring store 8516 and the stash, with Pbar stacking, and with NuMI and MiniBooNE taking beam. During the midnight shift, Operations terminated store 8516 at 3 AM. The Pelletron came online at 4 AM. Operations established store 8517 at 4:15 AM with an AIL of 110.5E30. During the day shift, Operations terminated store 8517 at noon. Operations established store 8518 at 1:20 PM with an AIL of 280.5E30. Operators reported a Linac quadrupole magnet power supply had failed, which interrupted beam for about three hours. During the evening shift, Operations monitored the Accelerator Complex. Monday Feb 21 The midnight shift began with Operations monitoring store 8518 and the stash, with Pbar stacking, and with NuMI and MiniBooNE taking beam. During the midnight shift, Operations reported that stacking was interrupted for about 45 minutes due to a Pbar LCW flow sensor. The Plans for Monday The plans for today are to establish a new store this morning. After the store is established, Pbar personnel will access and begin working on their dump LCW leaks; they estimated that this job would take about 18 hours. |
