Hello group,
I am trying to develop a SyncML client that interoperates with Nokia 6680. My client is based on OBEX over Bluetooth.
I am able to make an OBEX connection to the SyncML service. But when I send my initialization package via a PUT request it reports the error 0xD0 or internal server error. I hv tried all possible combination to send the PUT requests. But it reports the same error everytime. I even tried sending the same request as that of Nokia itself which I had captured using a logger. This too did not help.
I hv not been able to proceed a step further than this. Shall appreciate a great deal if anyone cud shed some light on this.
Thanks in advance,

Americans enjoyed a three-day weekend and found all sorts of ways to celebrate Labor Day.
But one group in Belton had extra reason to celebrate Monday, as their loved ones are back home after serving a tour of duty in Afghanistan.
The soldiers of the 603rd Military Police Company were welcomed home with bundles of love at the Belton Army Reserve Center.
Loved ones waited a year overall, but before they could touch, there was a moment of silence for fallen soldier Sgt. 1st Class Trenton Rhea, who drowned while trying to cross a body of water during combat operations.
But the rest arrived whole, something no one could take for granted.
"This is my fourth time, so each time I come back it gets a little bit better," Sgt. Maj. Brent Heald said.
The soldiers were happy to see their family again after a year of being gone.
Spc. Brad Langdon was greeted by a gaggle of nieces and nephews.
"Brad doesn't have any children yet, but I told him when he gets back he has to give me some grandchildren," the soldier's father, Gary Langdon, said.
Photos also showed those who welcomed them overseas.
"A lot of the people there are very kind, very warm," Spc. Matthew Kahmann said.
But each of them also returned with a reminder, an engraved bracelet, to remember their fallen comrade.
Rhea lived with his wife and three daughters in Liberty where his wife is a teacher. He was originally from Oakley, KS.
"We are just thankful that we were able to bring everybody else back and we'll never forget," Heald said.

Several weeks ago now we had the opportunity to partake of lunch with the Hartwick Senior Group at The Hartwick Restaurant on Route 205 just south of the hamlet of Hartwick. Normally the Senior Group has a potluck luncheon at the Hartwick Fire Hall. But this month, the decision was made to eat out. And while we are always fond of the potluck lunch, we were not at all disappointed with The Hartwick Restaurant lunch. In fact, we thought it was quite good.
We chose to try the broccoli soup and the ham and cheese deli sandwich. The soup was delicious and the sandwich was so large we, along with almost everyone else, took half of the sandwich home. For dessert the restaurant served some of the largest muffins we have ever seen. We choose an apple muffin, which necessitated another takeout box, as Ina and Don Phillips were celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary and brought a cake to celebrate the occasion. All in all we enjoyed both the food and the fellowship.
We also were happy to receive a copy of the restaurant's menu for future reference. We note that The Hartwick Restaurant is open daily from 6 a.m. until 9 p.m., serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Additionally, we learned that the restaurant will feature winter dinner specials Monday through Friday from October through March. These specials include fried chicken, grilled ham steak, spaghetti and meatballs, prime rib and a fish fry. Given what we have learned, we tend to think that we will find ourselves traveling to Hartwick to check out not only the dinner specials, but also the many possibilities for breakfast. For more information about the restaurant, please call 293-3043.
And much as we liked The Hartwick Restaurant, we must say we have not gotten a similar report on this year's school lunches both in Milford and Cooperstown. We were told that in Milford it is no longer possible to get a sandwich as children don't need bread everyday. And we must say that we certainly hope the Widge don't learn of this revolting development as she is rather positive that she wants to start each day with toast complimenting her fresh fruit and yogurt. Of course the bread restrictions might explain why we have also heard the subs served at Coopestown are open faced with the top part of the bun missing.

Eagles DT Brodrick Bunkley will likely miss the rest of the season after tearing a ligament in his elbow, the team reported on its Web site.
Bunkley left in the first quarter of Philly's Week Five win vs. the 49ers and did not return to the game. On his Monday radio show, head coach Andy Reid said that Bunkley will have elbow surgery soon, which could sideline him for the rest of the year.
"He's going to have to have surgery on that elbow," Reid said on Sportsradio 610 WIP. "That's not a good thing. He had ligament damage in there. The nerve to where your funny bone is, that nerve shifted and so they have to go in and straighten it out. It's not a career-ending thing, but it's going to take time to get him back."
Backups Trevor Laws and Antonio Dixon will see more playing time due to the injury.
The way we see it
Bunkley had only nine tackles on the season, but his main job was to clog space and keep blockers off the Eagles' linebackers. His 6-2, 306-pound frame will surely be missed, as he sits out with injury for the first time in his five-year career.

Here's your soundtrack. Okay, maybe they're not exactly brazillian but their music is awesome and their live shows legendary.
Now, Brazil covers almost half of South America and its Amazon rainforest is the world's largest jungle... which is rapidly getting cut down. The country is basically one giant botanical garden with some bangin' cities on its edges.
Brazil was colonized in 1808 by the royal court of Portugal, which was fleeing Napolean's troops. They didn't stay long, and Brazil won its independence in 1822.
Its biggest city, Sao Paulo, is the financial hub of South America. Brazil is the "b" in BRIC -- Brazil, Russia, India and China. These four were labeled the world's fastest developing large economies in the year 2001.
Brazil is known for three things: amazingly beautiful women, carnival, and Pele -- King of Football, Athlete of the Century, football ambassador of the world and a declared national treasure.
Brazillians can tell foreigners a mile away, by the way their hips move. Samba is built into the soul of brazil and carnival is when it bursts out into twenty-four hour undying explosions of sound on every street.
This picture of mask diving at the Taipus reefs makes me shed hot and salty tears all over my calendar, which is set on "January" right now.

Please feel more than welcome to chime in with theorycrafting specifics.
= Acronyms & Abbreviations=
= Key abilities=
The mastery ability for fire mages in MoP is Ignite, a DoT applied by FB, FFB, IB, Scorch, and Pyro, which causes the target to burn for 12% of the spell's total damage 4 sec. If this effect is reapplied, any remaining damage will be added to the new Ignite.
[TABLE]Fireball | Fire's main nuke.
Frostfire Bolt | The staple spell for mages, replaced by FB at level 12. FFB does the same damage as FB as well as applying a 40% snare, but has a longer casting time unless the Glyph of Frostfire Bolt is used.
Inferno Blast | an instant crit that spreads all DoTs on the target to the surrounding targets.
Mage Bomb | Main DoT. This will be Nether Tempest, Living Bomb, or Frost Bomb, depending on which you take as your tier 5 talent.
Pyroblast | A heavy hitting single target spell, but the cast time is significantly longer than FBs.
Flamestrike | The most powerful AOE spell for mages, doing damage as well as placing a DoT on the ground. In MoP it now has a 2 sec cast time and a 12 sec CD.
Arcane Explosion | No longer just for arcane mages, Arcane Explosion is an instant AOE that can be cast while moving.
Blizzard | A channeled AOE frost spell, with a channel time that conveniently fits into Flamestrike's CD.
Counterspell | Interrupts an enemy's spell and prevents them from casting from that school for 6 sec.
Remove Curse | Self explanatory.
Spellsteal | Removes a buff from an enemy target and applies it to the mage instead.[/TABLE]
[TABLE]Heating Up | Procs when the previous direct damage spell is a crit. If the next spell is a crit, Pyro! will proc.
Pyroblast! | Procs when two direct damage spells in a row are crits/when a spell crits while HU is active, and makes the next Pyro an instant cast. Pyro! can be forced to proc by casting IB while HU is active.[/TABLE]
[TABLE]Alter Time | Functions like a less powerful, one person version of the hourglass on Murozond in End Time. Upon casting AT, your current position, health, mana, buffs, and debuffs are saved. When AT ends (at most 6 sec later), you are returned to your initial position and those stats and de/buffs are restored to what they were when AT was cast. Be careful not to cast AT before using a cooldown or buff that goes for longer than 6 sec, or you will lose it when AT ends.
Combustion | Takes the Ignite DoT on a target and creates a new, additional DoT. 45 sec cooldown (or 1.5 min CD when glyphed).
Evocation | Unless you have taken the Rune of Power talent at level 90, channelling Evocation will restore some of your mana. If you use the Glyph of Evocation, you will regen both health and mana while channelling.
Ice Block | Emergency damage mitigation. Ice Block will make you immune to all damage for 10 sec.
Invisibility | Another aggro dump, although unless you have the Greater Invisibility talent, it takes a few seconds to kick in, during which it can be broken.
Mirror Image | A long time aggro dump and DPS increase for mages, Mirror Image's damage has been increased to make it one of the highest damage spells for the cost of one GCD, in addition to hiding aggro while the images are up. The three images case Fire Blast and Frostbolt, and benefit from your spell power, haste and crit.
Polymorph | Our main CC spell. Polymorph will change the target into an animal (sheep is the default) and remove them from the fight for 30 sec or until they receive damage. The Glyph of Polymorph will also remove any DoTs that were on the target prior to Polymorph's cast.
Time Warp | The mage version of Bloodlust/Heroism.[/TABLE]
[TABLE]Critical Mass | Crit strike chance of FB, FFB, Pyro and Scorch increased by 50%.
Shatter | Crit chance against frozen targets is doubled, and then increased by another 50%. The target's crit chance modifiers (if any) are applied before the doubling.
Nether Attunement | Mana regen from passive ticks, mana gems, and Evocation is increased by your haste.
Wizardry | Intellect (from all sources) increased by 5%.[/TABLE]
Frost Armor slows melee attackers by 30% and provides 7% spell haste, while Mage Armor reduces duration of harmful magic effects by 25% and increases mastery. For fire mages, neither of these are a better option than Molten Armor.
When the target of a druid's Symbiosis, mages gain the spell Healing Touch, a medium-large sized, mana-intensive heal with a 2.5 sec cast time and 10 sec CD.
= Spec=
Talents are now a choice between 3 1-point talents every 15 levels, and most have some degree of utility to all specs. Given how changing talent choice has been made cheaper and simpler, redoing talents for situational benefits between raids, or even encounters, looks to be a viable option for now.
[TABLE]Presence of Mind | Can be used every 90 sec to make one spell insta-cast. Not on the GCD.
Scorch | Low cast time fire spell that can be cast while moving, and can proc Ignite, HU and Pyro!
Ice Floes | Can be used every 60 sec to make the next two spells with a cast/channel time of less than 4 sec able to be cast/channelled while moving. Can be cast while in the middle of casting another spell, and is not on the GCD.[/TABLE]
Presence of Mind and Scorch are our best options, depending on the fight. Presence of Mind is better for stand and burn fights, as it allows an insta-cast Pyro every 90 sec. Scorch is excellent for fights involving a lot of movement, as it enable you to keep DPSing while moving. Scorch is also an excellent way to fish for HU procs, and currently seems to add a decent DPS increase this way as crit levels get higher.
[TABLE]Temporal Shield | All damage received for the next 4 sec after casting is then returned to you as a HoT over the next 6 sec. There is no limit on the amount of damage it can heal – provided you don't die during the initial 4 sec, you will get all of that health back. Not on the GCD.
Blazing Speed | Speed increased by 150% and all movement impairing effects dropped for 1 sec after casting, but may only be cast after receiving damage, or after killing a target. Not on the GCD.
Ice Barrier | Shields you for 60 sec, or until the shield has received enough damage to break. The damage the shield can take scales with gear. While the shield is active, it also prevents incoming damage from interrupting spellcasting (although it does not prevent knockbacks).[/TABLE]
All three have their uses, depending on the situation and what other talents you have taken. Temporal Shield + Cauterise makes a strong combination, especially if Ice Block is off CD to ensure you survive the 4 sec if you end up taking more than 200% of your health in damage. Blazing Speed + Ice Floes will allow casting while moving out of pretty much anything. Ice Barrier doesn't have cute tricks like the other two do, but will be a huge help to your healers during heavy-damage fights, and while being on the GCD has a negative DPS impact, the pushback negation should make up for this on heavy-pushback fights.
[TABLE]Ring of Frost | After a 2 sec cast time, places a 10 yard ring that lasts for 10 sec, and will freeze up to 10 enemies entering the ring for 10 sec. 45 sec CD.
Ice Ward | Places a ward on a friendly target (yourself included), that lasts for 30 sec or until triggered. When the warded target is next hit by an attack, Ice Ward triggers and casts a Frost Nova, which freezes every enemy within 10 yards for 5 sec. 20 sec CD, and can be on two friendly targets at the same time.
Frostjaw | Will freeze and silence one target up to 30 yards away for 8 sec, or until the target receives damage. 20 sec CD.[/TABLE]
Which of these three to take primarily depends on personal preference, as well as some situational considerations. Ring of Frost will allow you to CC multiple targets at range, Frostjaw allows you to CC one target at range (and is particularly good for CCing casters), while Ice Ward is useful to pop on a friendly target who needs to either kite something, or keep it in place for a few seconds.
[TABLE]Greater Invisibility | Removes the fade time from Invisibility, removes 2 DoTs, and reduces all AOE and splash damage by 90% for the duration of the spell and for 3 sec after becoming visible again. 2.5 min CD.
Cauterise | A passive effect with a 2 min internal CD. When hit by an attack that would otherwise kill you, Cauterise puts you back to 50% health, and then applies a fire DoT that burns away 40% of your health over 6 sec. Ice Block will negate most (if not all) of the damage, as will Temporal Shield and Incanter's Ward. Note that it will now only absorb damage that is up to 200% of your maximum health.
Cold Snap | Restores 30% of your health, and resets the CD of Ice Block, Cone of Cold, and Frost Nova. 3 min CD, and off the GCD.[/TABLE]
Of these three, Cauterise is best option, being essentially a passive battle rez that can proc every 2 min. As it no longer burns away more health than it gives you, and having several options for negating or restoring the health it does burn away, it's good for pretty much any situation. Next is Greater Invisibility, with its situational use for reducing AOE damage and removing DoTs and threat. Cold Snap is not particularly useful for fire mages.
[TABLE]Nether Tempest | 12 sec DoT that scales excellently with haste. Every tick launches a half-damage missile at another target within 10 years. Primary target damage is based on your stats when the spell is cast, while secondary target damage is based on your stats when the missile launches.
Living Bomb | 12 sec fire DoT that can be on up to three targets at any one time. Living Bomb deals 50% of its damage as ticks, then at the end of the 12 sec, it explodes and deals the remaining 50% damage to three targets within 10 yards. Now also explodes if the target dies before the 12 sec is up.
Frost Bomb | A single target, one-tick DoT. The base time is a 6 sec tick and 10 sec CD, both of which are reduced by haste. After one tick, Frost Bomb explodes and deals damage to all targets within 10 years, and applies a 70% slow for 2 sec.[/TABLE]
Which bomb is best depends on how many targets you will be using it on. Nether Tempest is the best single target bomb, or with spread out targets. Living Bomb's rapid multidotting is best for 2 – 5 targets, and Frost Bomb is best against 6+ targets as there is no limit on the number of targets hit by the detonation as long as they are within 10 yards of the primary target.
[TABLE]Invocation | Reduces the CD on Evocation to 10 sec, and gives +25% spell damage for 40 sec after successfully completing an Evocation. On the downside, reduces your passive mana regen by 50%.
Rune of Power | Places up to two runes on the ground, which each last for 60 sec. When standing in one of your own runes, you get +15% spell damage and +100% mana regen. You need to get approx. 10 sec use out of a rune to make it worth casting. On the downside, you lose Evocation as a spell, and you won't get much use out of it on fights requiring a lot of movement.
Incanter's Ward | Gives you two passive buffs, a +6% to all damage and +65% mana regen. When used as a spell, the passive buffs are removed until the spell is off CD, and you gain a shield that lasts for 8 sec, or until max. damage is absorbed (approx. 23% of what Ice Barrier will absorb), and regens up to 18% of your mana. When the shield breaks or expires, you get up to +30% damage for 15 secs. The mana regen and increased damage both depend on how much damage the shield absorbed – if the shield absorbed half the damage it could, you'll get 9.5% mana regen and +15% damage. The shield stacks with Ice Barrier, and will absorb damage before Ice Barrier does.[/TABLE]
As with previous tiers, each talent is better for different situations. Rune of Power is the best on fights with no movement, or where you have a small amount of movement and can arrange to be moving between two or three particular places. Invocation is good for fights with moderate movement, when you have time to pause to cast an Evocation before moving again. Incanter's Ward is best on high-movement high-damage fights, as it has no impact on mobility, can't be interrupted, gives some damage mitigation, and to get the maximum benefit you need to ensure that you're getting enough damage that the shield breaks rather than expires.
Of the 18 major glyphs for fire mages, only 9 have any use for fire, and two of those (Polymorph and Spellsteal) are extremely situational. Fire Blast, Evocation, Combustion, and Frostfire Bolt appear to be the most consistently useful.
Glyph of Mirror Image will give a DPS increase, the other minor glyphs are fun or cosmetic, and don't really offer much advantage. Take whichever you like the most. Situationally, Discreet Magic's reduction of mage bomb's damage distance could help with not pulling yellow mobs by accident, and Glyph of Momentum will allow you to blink while strafing.
With thanks to Binkenstein, who has great haste breakpoint cards over at Totem Spot.
This table does not take into account the Frost Armor buff, as fire mages should be using Molten Armor.

= Races=
Useful racials for mages.
Draenei get Gift of the Naaru, which is a small HoT, Heroic Presence, which gives them +1% hit, and Shadow Resistance, which reduces shadow damage taken by 1%.

Until epic gems are available, your best options are either rare gems or the blue-quality 'Perfect' cuts of regular gems.
Unlike previous expansions, in MoP it appears that the best DPS outcome is to gem with hybrids in all sockets, as the secondary stats on gems are now double that of primary stats. Another option is to gem straight secondary stats, especially as your gear gets better, given that the value of crit increases as gear gets better. It is strongly recommended that you run your own sims to determine the best gemming options for your gear.
The stats you want to gem for are Int, Hit (until hit cap), and Crit.
Generally, you can't reforge into a stat that is already on an item. However, with expertise now adding the same amount of spell hit that hit does, you can get around this by reforging into expertise if an item already has hit on it.
Reforge into hit/expertise until hit cap (15%, or 5100, unless you're a draenei, or a human or gnome using a sword), then reforge into crit.
Reforge out of hit/expertise above the hit cap first, then out of mastery, then haste. Avoid reforging out of crit as much as possible.
Note that buffs are doubled for Pandaren.
Mogu Fish Stew gives +300 Int.
Braised Turtle, Great Pandaren Banquet, & Banquet of the Pot gives +275 Int.
Swirling Mist Soup & all other Banquets gives +250 Int.
Flask of the Warm Sun gives +1k Int (+1320 for alchemists)
Potion of the Jade Serpent gives +4k Int for 25 sec. Best used just before combat starts, as this way it can be used again during combat.
Master Healing Potion heals 60k health.
Master Mana Potion restores 30k mana.
= Play=
Use Molten Armor, keep Arcane Brilliance up, and refresh your mana gem back to three uses before each raid boss encounter.
Use Potion of the Jade Serpent just before combat starts so that potions will be available to use during the fight.
Single target is now more priority-based than a hard and fast rotation:
- Evocation 1 - 2 sec before buff expires, Incanter's Ward when guaranteed incoming damage (either raidwide or deliberate running into bad), or Rune of Power 1 - 2 sec before the rune expires.
- Combustion when Pyro DoT and a large Ignite DoT are on target.
- Mirror Image on CD (unless the fight is not likely to last another 30 sec, or unless you're keeping it in reserve for aggro dumping)
- If both Pyro! and HU are procced:
LB if about to expire.
- Inferno Blast when HU procs (if HU procs with IB on CD, keep casting your filler instead).
- Living Bomb/Nether Tempest on or just before expiry, or Frost Bomb on CD
- Pyro when it procs*
- Fireball (or glyphed FFB) as filler if Pyro DoT is on target, Scorch as filler if it isn't (and you have the talent)
As there is now 0.5 sec between HU proccing and the next non-crit cancelling it out, do not stop casting Fireball to hit IB when HU procs. Finish the cast, then hit IB for the Pyro! proc.
Alter Time complicates things a little, depending on how it's best used for a particular fight. For straight DPS, Alter Time is best used after Pyro! procs (but before casting it), while Time Warp/Bloodlust/Heroism is running, or with powerful trinket procs. When using it with Time Warp/Bloodlust/Heroism/trinket procs, it's best to use it when there is approx. 6 sec remaining on the buffs. Alternatively, it can be used to bypass/defuse encounter mechanics such as cobalt mines on Stone Guard.
2 – 4 targets:
- Evocation 1 - 2 sec before buff expires, Incanter's Ward when guaranteed incoming damage (either raidwide or deliberate running into bad), or Rune of Power 1 - 2 sec before the rune expires.
- Combustion when Pyro DoT and a large Ignite DoT are on target.
- Mirror Image on CD (unless the fight is not likely to last another 30 sec, or unless you're keeping it in reserve for aggro dumping)
- If both Pyro! and HU are procced:
LB if about to expire.
- Inferno Blast when HU procs (if HU procs with IB on CD, keep casting your filler instead).
- Living Bomb/Nether Tempest on or just before expiry, or Frost Bomb on CD
- IB to spread DoTs
- If Combustion is off CD, cast to reset IB's CD
- Pyro when it procs*
- Fireball (or glyphed FFB) as filler if Pyro DoT is on target, Scorch as filler if it isn't (and you have the talent)
5+ targets
- Evocation 1 - 2 sec before buff expires, Incanter's Ward when guaranteed incoming damage (either raidwide or deliberate running into bad), or Rune of Power 1 - 2 sec before the rune expires.
- Living Bomb/Nether Tempest on or just before expiry, or Frost Bomb on CD
- IB to spread DoTs
- Combustion to reset IB's CD.
- Flamestrike on CD
- Mirror Image on CD (unless the fight is not likely to last another 30 sec, or unless you're keeping it in reserve for aggro dumping)
- Blizzard or Arcane Explosion
- Living Bomb/Nether Tempest/Frost Bomb
- Pyro when it procs*
- IB when HU procs
- PoM Pyro/Scorch/Ice Floes + FB
When Pyro! procs, AT and Combustion (and PoM, if you took that talent) can be used to create and spread even larger DoTs, using the following method:
- PoM (if you took this talent)
- Cast two Pyros - one from the proc, one instant cast from PoM
- Deactivate AT
- Cast two Pyros - one from the proc, one instant cast from PoM
- Combustion
If you gain a HU proc over the course of this spell chain, you should turn it into a Pyro! with IB and fire it off. You should also be trying to align whatever other cooldowns you have, trinkets, procs etc with this spell chain, remember to utilize procs/cooldowns when firing off your Pyros, not just before you use Combustion.
Also note that if you have Windsong on your weapon and are using Invocation pre-pull, it's a good idea to unequip your weapon before casting your Evocation, then reequip it as you pull, to prevent a Windsong proc from being wasted.
Right now, fire mages don't appear to have huge problems with mana management, despite mana pools being standardised.
For mana regen on longer encounters, several options are available:
- Your tier 6 talent will have some form of mana regen built in.
- Evocation (unless your tier 6 talent is RoP).
- .
- .
- Arcane Torrent (for blood elves)
Most profession bonuses have now been standardised. With the exception of gathering professions, each will give you approx. the same bonus.
[TABLE]Alchemy | Approx. +320 Int from Mixology.
Blacksmithing | Socket Bracer + Socket Gloves will give +320 Int (or other chosen stat) or +160 Int and +320 secondary stat or +640 secondary stat.
Enchanting | Enchant Ring: Greater Intellect gives +320 Int (+160 per ring).
Engineering | Synapse Springs average out to approx. +320 Int.
Herbalism | Lifebloom gives a small heal and +2880 haste for 20 sec. 2 min CD.
Inscription | Secret Crane Wing Inscription gives +320 Int.
Jewelcrafting | Serpent's Eye gems will give +320 Int (or other chosen stat).
Leatherworking | Net gain of +320 Int.
Mining | +480 Stamina, so probably the weakest profession bonus for us.
Skinning | +480 crit.
Tailoring | Lightweave Embroidery and Master's Spellthread average out to approx. +320 Int, and +165 crit.[/TABLE]
Archaeology – is again mostly toys and items better for levelling toons. It does, however, give us Umbrella of Chi-Ji (a Pandaren artefact), which is one of the better pre-raid caster off-hands.
Cooking – Once you get up to Banquets at 575 skill level, all Banquets will provide each person with their best stat (so Int for us), with Banquet of the Pot providing and Great Pandaren Banquet providing +25 over the other Banquets. From 525 to 575, or for single-person food, Way of the Pot is the Int food. If you're only going to work on one Way, Pot should be it. If you plan to level multiple Ways, Pot should be first.
First Aid – The same as it's always been. Useful to help your healers out in a pinch, especially when it's a choice between stopping DPS to get a bit of bandaging in and then back to casting, or stopping DPS for the entire fight by dying.
Fishing – As always, the cheapest way to get some of your cooking mats.
Farming – Not a secondary profession per se, but may as well be. Farming in Halfhill is where you get the rest of your cooking mats. The higher rep you are with the Tillers, the more you're able to grow. At higher rep levels you can also plant seeds which will grow into mats for other professions.

Hello again to my fellow fantasy footballers. I'm here with another addition of The Fantasy Outlook, this time ranking the TE's for the 2010 fantasy football season. People write off TE's a lot in fantasy but I have found this to be a mistake. A top TE often produces at the same level or better then a top fantasy number 2 wide receiver. Combining a top TE with 2 top WR's can really give you the edge you need to succeed, or in case you miss your shot at a second top WR, they can replace that value.
Last year in my own personal rankings, I felt that Dallas Clark would be the top fantasy TE and in most scoring formats I was correct. At the same time I completely dropped the ball on Vernon Davis as I felt that he would never live up to his giant potential.
I am changing the selection format up slightly from my previous posts. These rankings are 100 hundred percent my own personal rankings. I did not factor in where these players were taken in the mock drafts I participated in or read over. I will post a number at the end of each player's briefing and that is the ranking they received using the process I used for my other rankings.
The point system I used is the same as recent posts:
1 reception equals 1 point, 10 receiving yards equals 1 point, 1 receving TD equals 6 points
So without further ado here are my top 20 TE's for fantasy football this upcoming year.
1. Chris Cooley, Was: What a curverball off the top but I want you to really think about this. His new quarterback is McNabb who loves his TE's. I mean he made Chad Lewis a legitimiate threat for at least one year. Cooley is also the best target on the team. He also runs the routes needed for a quick pass which will be needed as McNabb runs for his life behind a terrible offensive line. So what are his downsides? Well he is coming off a broken ankle, but by the time the season starts it will have been about 10 months since the injury. Fred Davis also proved himself to be a capable threat at the TE spot. However his hands aren't as good as Cooley's. Cooley was mostly hurt by Campbell's reluctance or inefficiency at getting him the ball in the redzone. McNabb has no qualms with targeting his TE all over the field and particularly in the redzone. This all shapes up, to me, for a huge year from Cooley that leaves him as the best TE when it is all said done. (9)
Projected Stats: 92 receptions 1100 receiving yards 11 TD
2. Brent Celek, Phi: Is it homerism? Possibly. But I think it is more then that. I do not believe Celek has reached his full potential. With teams focusing so much on our 3 WR's and the addition of possibly another pass catching threat in Cornelius Ingram, I find Celek has the opportunity to really showcase the goods this upcoming season. It also doesn't hurt that he is Kolb's roommate through training camp and on the road so just the chemistry that should develop between them leaves him as a likely canidate to excel this year. (4)
Projected Stats: 82 receptions 1010 receiving yards 9 TD
3. Antonio Gates, SD: The main pass weapon of River's for his entire tenor as QB in SD should continue to succeed. Before there was Vincent Jackson dropping a 1000 yard seasons there was Chris Chamber's not doing that and Gates still kicked ass. So the loss of Jackson for 3 games, possibly a hold out of 10 games, will not negatively effect Gates production. If anything it might make him better as there will be more balls thrown his way. (2)
Projected Stats: 76 receptions 1059 yards 8 TD
4. Dallas Clark, Ind: Last year Dallas was huge for Manning, putting together one of the finest seasons ever for a TE. I chose Dallas as the number 1 TE because I didn't believe that Anthony Gonzalez could reproduce what they were losing in Marvin Harrison. This year I have to take a step back and look again. I think with the emergence of Pierre Garcon and Austin Collie and the return of Anthony Gonzalez, Clark should still produce at a top level, but nowhere near the monster season he had last year. (1)
Projected Stats: 85 receptions 987 yards 8 TD
5. Vernon Davis, SF: I am now a believer. Davis showed what a man with his considerable talent can do when he buys into his coache's philosphy and works hard. I think he is in for another fantastic year, although expecting 13 TD's again is a bit much. Davis should still perform at a top level though and is an excellent selection. (7)
Projected Stats: 75 receptions 917 receving yards 8 TD
6. Jason Witten, Dal: Witten is a catching machine in the Dallas offense. Romo looks for him constantly which is why he regularly puts up 90 catch 1000 yard seasons. The problem is the Cowboys like to pound the rock once they reach the redzone and use Witten more as a blocker. His touchdown totals have always been the achilles heel for fantasy owners (never more then 7 TD's in a season, and a career average of 4) and if you're not in a PPR league it kills his value. (3)
Projected Stats: 92 receptions 1031 receiving yards 4 TD
7. Jermichael Finley, GB: Beastly. That's the word most often used to describe Finley's 2nd year in the league. He snatched the starting role from Donald Lee and it took him a few games to get acclimated but when he did, wow what results. In his last 6 games (including the playoffs) Finley grabbed 34 balls for 496 yards and 4 TD's. Now even though it is dangerous to do so, lets stretch that production over a full 16 game schedule. 91 catches 1323 yards and 11 TD's. That's WR 1 numbers right there. Playing in the pass heavy offense of Green Bay those numbers actually look attainable. I will take a more realistic look for TE numbers but you can expect the world if you take Finley. (5)
Projected Stats: 68 receptions 845 receiving yards 8 TD
8. Tony Gonzalez, Atl: He is the most prolific TE in NFL history. Last year was a down year for him (83 receptions 867 yards 6 TD, still impressive) but I am sure a good amount can be attributed to the injuries on the offense, most notably with Matt Ryan. Although he is older and he has to slow down at some point, with a healthy Ryan I see another nice year for him. (8)
Projected Stats: 78 receptions 900 receiving yards 6 TD
9. Owen Daniels, Hou: Through 8 weeks, last year, Owen Daniels was the best TE in football. He was having a career year and was on pace for an 80 reception 1000 yard 10 TD season. He tore his ACL in week 8, so his health level will be questionable to start the season. He has the potential to be very big for you in the 2nd half of the year and to put up solid numbers all around. Grab him and stash him for the playoff run and enjoy the helpful numbers he gives you until then. (6)
Projected Stats: 75 receptions 884 receiving yards 5 TD
10. Visanthe Shiancoe, Min: Shiancoe developed quite a rapport with Favre last year and became a favorite in the redzone. He won't get you a ton of receptions or yardage but he does score a huge bevy of TD's. (10)
Projected Stats: 53 receptions 582 receiving yards 10 TD
11. Kellen Winslow, TB: He is the only proven receiving weapon in Tampa Bay. He makes for a great safety valve for Josh Freeman, he puts up some good yardage, and he gets targeted a lot but isn't much of a TD machine. Great filler for your team though. (12)
Projected Stats: 81 receptions 885 receiving yards 5 TD
12. Heath Miller, Pit: He should not suffer as much as the other receiveing targets in the absence of Ben Rothliesberger. He runs nice crisp routes and should be able to capitalize when targeted. However as I have stressed, a return to a run heavier offense is in the cards so a slight drop off is expected. (11)
Projected Stats: 63 receptions 671 receiving yards 6 TD
13. John Carlson, Sea: He's still young and has room to grow. Hasslebeck has never been a big fan of using his TE's so only a slight increase is expected. Don't know how that dynamic changes if Whitehurst see's the field at some point. (16)
Projected Stats: 54 receptions 621 receiving yards 6 TD
14. Kevin Boss, NYG: We had a discussion a few weeks ago with some of the Giant fans about how good Boss really is. They claim the Giants underutilize Boss but he has the talent to succeed with the best. Well in fantasy if you aren't used correctly your value holds no weight. Talent means nothing, only production. Boss is underused so taking him as anything but a back up would be a mistake. (14)
Projected Stats: 54 receptions 556 receiving yards 5 TD
15. Dustin Keller, NYJ: This is an upside pick with low risk. Keller was used sparingly during the regular season but targeted often once the playoffs started(12 receptions 181 yards 3 TD over 3 games). There are a lot of questions though. How much will the Jets pass? How will the addition of Santonio Holmes affect his production? Will Mark Sanchez be erratic or precise? Depending on the answers to these questions Keller could flop or be in for a huge year. (18)
Projected Stats: 53 receptions 602 receiving yards 4 TD
16. Zach Miller, Oak: Ranked kinda low considering he is the only real sure receiving option in Oakland, but I have my reasonings. Campbell will gladly dish out passes to his TE's for 80 yards of a field, but once they approach the redzone it is like they disappear all together. Cooley suffered this same fate since after the 2007 season and now I am afraid it is Zach Miller's turn. (15)
Projected Stats: 62 receptions 701 receving yards 1 TD
17. Jermaine Gresham, Cin: Perceived to be a very talented rookie, he was selected in the first round by the Bengals. He is going to a team that recently adjusted it's style to more of running attack but Palmer might be intrigued by his first real option at TE ever and get him the ball more then a little bit. He is a rookie though so an adjustment period is expected. He is also still recovering from torn cartilage in his knee. He's a worthwhile backup. (19)
Projected Stats: 42 receptions 452 receiving yards 4 TD
18. Fred Davis, Was: I expect Washington to run more 2 TE sets since they have a talented array at the position. Fred Davis filled in very well for Cooley after he went down and amassed over 500 yards with 6 TD's. I think Cooley regains his status as the number 1 but Davis' contribution should be notable as well. A Handcuff TE? (17)
Projected Stats: 41 receptions 437 receiving yards 4 TD
19. Anthony Fasano, Mia: His 2009 season was anything less then impressive but I expect a turn around with the addition of Marshall and with Henne having most of a year's experience under his belt. The kid does have talent, he also has no competition for the position. As you can see from all my rankings I expect Miami to improve dramatically on offense, especially in the passing game this year. Fasano should benefit.
Projected Stats: 40 receptions 425 receving yards 4 TD
20. Todd Heap, Bal: They drafted 2 rookie TE's in Baltimore and so that will negatively affect his production but I think he uses this as an audition year and puts up respectable back up numbers.
Projected Stats: 40 receptions 410 receving yards 4 TD
Notable missing person: This is a special section. I did not include Greg Olsen because well, there's no room in a Mike Martz offense for a productive TE. I looked over it again and again and even with Olsen's immense talent, he will be used primarily to block in both the run and passing games therefore not getting enough opportunities to make a decent fantasy impact. Could this be my year's Vernon Davis? Only the season will tell.
There you have it. My TE rankings for the 2010 season. May they help you on your way to a fantasy football championship. Unless you are playing me.

Pearlbrown, I wish you didn't give this credit union any publicity. If you remember, they changed the EWP on CDs retroactively. One of only two banks or credit unions in the entire nation to do this. This is a reprehensible credit union that should rot in h*ll. I urge all readers to never do business with this institution. They will **** you.

FDA Restrictions on Outdoor Cigarette Ads Near Schools May Hurt Business Less than Industry Says
When the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) proposed new rules restricting outdoor tobacco advertising near schools and playgrounds in 2009, the tobacco industry argued that such rules would lead to a near complete ban on tobacco advertising in urban areas. An article in the March 2011 issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine shows that the effect of these rules would be less severe on businesses than the industry contends.

CATEGORIES Drama, Trailers and Clips, Trailers and Clips, CinematicalIt was inevitable -- as soon as Francis Ford Coppola rethought a trip to Cannes for Tetro, you knew that a trailer would undoubtedly appear. But how would a brief look into Coppola's first original story since The Conversation, and next indie step after Youth Without Youth, turn out?
Stunning, dark, and just a little bit confusing, if the trailer is any indication. I'd say it's a welcome strangeness and indicative of an interesting cinematic ride, but Movieline isn't so sure: "You can see the danger here amid the flashes of beauty and passion, reminding viewers all too well of the never-ending hangover of perfection." Indeed, it's not your usual trailer, mixing distinct artistic images and a few splashes of color in the story of familial struggle.
Vincent Gallo's Tetro is much like any other Gallo, but it also seems like he was made for Coppola's black and white eye --ripped out of Buffalo and finally finding a home in a timeless, color-free Buenos Aires. But check out the trailer and weigh in below: Has the Tetro trailer piqued your interest?

The Cowboys have placed PK David Buehler on injured reserve because of a groin injury he suffered in practice on Wednesday. Taking his spot on the roster is OG Daniel Loper.
Buehler handled kickoffs for the Cowboys, with Dan Bailey attempting field goals and point-after tries. Buehler averaged 66 yards per kick this season with nine touchbacks.
Loper, who previously has played for the Titans, Lions and Raiders, has started at both guard and left tackle in his career. He will provide depth for an offensive line that is inexperienced and has suffered through some injuries already this season.

Four new bosses at scandal-hit hospital (From Gazette)

Four new bosses at scandal-hit hospital
6:00am Tuesday 14th January 2014 in News
MANAGEMENT at the troubled trust which runs Colchester's NHS hospitals has been bolstered after criticism of its leadership.
Colchester Hospitals Trust has appointed four medics as divisional directors, who will oversee care at Colchester General Hospital and Essex County Hospital.
The trust was ordered last summer to improve its clinical leadership by the Keogh Review, which investigated hospitals with very high death rates.
The aim was to give doctors, nurses and other health experts more influence over the running of services.
Trust chairman Dr Sally Irvine said: "The trust's vision is to create a clinically-led organisation and these new posts will help achieve that.
"The divisional directors are all members of the trust's board of directors.
Each has a truly influential role embracing quality, service delivery, business planning and the leadership of multidisciplinary teams."
Consultant physician Dr Charles Bodmer is divisional director of medicine, consultant paediatrician Dr Angela Tillett is divisional director of surgery while Dr Gillian Urwin, a consultant microbiologist, is divisional director of cancer and clinical support services.
Amanda Hallums, a former deputy chief executive and director of nursing at Basildion and Thurrock Hospitals Trust, will become divisional director of women's and children's services from February 4.
The quartet will spend around two days week on their divisional duties, while carrying out their clinical commitments for the rest of the week.
The Keogh review highlighted managers were often reporting to different directors, with not enough nurses involved in running the trust.
During the Keogh review, whistleblowers alleged they were being bullied to alter patient records to hide the fact cancer waiting targets were being missed.
The findings were published in a Care Quality Commission report shortly after the divisional director roles were first advertised.
Since the report was published, Monitor has placed the trust in special measures while chief executive Dr Gordon Coutts and finance director Mike Baker have resigned.
Yesterday, Kim Hodgson started work as interim chief executive, replacing acting chief Sue Barnett, who will leave the trust in March.
After the cancer scandal Denise Gale, a former chief executive at the Mid Anglia Cancer Network, was appointed to the new post of cancer programme director.
A series of managerial vacancies have also been filled in recent weeks.

KITTERY, Maine (AP) — U.S. Sen. Susan Collins says repair costs to a nuclear-powered attack submarine that was severely damaged by a fire at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard will come in within $50 million of the original estimate.
Kevin Kelley, the Maine senator's spokesman, said Wednesday that the Navy's revised repair estimate for the USS Miami comes in plus-or-minus $50 million of the original estimate of $400 million for repairs and another $50 million in ancillary costs.
The Miami was damaged in a fire May 23 while undergoing an overhaul at the Kittery, Maine, shipyard.
Twenty-four-year-old Casey James Fury, of Portsmouth, N.H., has been charged with two counts of arson for setting the May 23 fire and a second blaze outside the sub on June 16.
Repairs are expected to be completed by April 2015.

Blackburn man jailed for six years over heroin plot
3:00pm Thursday 15th November 2012 in Blackburn
A BLACKBURN man involved in a drugs conspiracy where he supplied heroin to a Cumbrian couple has been jailed for six years.
Preston Crown Court heard that the pair made a total of 72 trips over three months to East Lancashire where Zahir Baz lived.
The drugs he provided ended up sold in Barrow-in-Furness to other users.
Baz ended up being arrested while travelling in a car near the Cumbrian town in January this year.
Drugs were found on a relative.
The 38-year-old, of Blackburn Street, Blackburn admitted two charges of conspiracy to supply heroin.
The judge passing sentence told him that he had had an operational function in the conspiracy chain.
Drugs were also discovered when police made a search of his home.
His relative, 21-year-old Shazaad Mahmood of Linden Avenue, Blackburn was given a 16-month sentence for one count of conspiracy to supply drugs.
Mahmood had taken possession of two ounces of heroin when his uncle travelled north to supply others.
They had been in a car stopped near the Barrow area in early January.
Two other defendants in the case were jailed for a total of nearly eight years, having admitted a charge of conspiracy to supply.
Darren Knowles, 39, of William Street, Barrow was given a jail term of nearly five-and-a-half years while Tracey Wharton, 41, of Moseley Street, Barrow was given two and a half years in prison.
They had also been caught in possession of drugs.
The total amount of drugs seized by the police had a street value of more than £16,000.
The court heard that the Blackburn supplier of the couple had been the missing piece of the jigsaw for the police.
When Baz was arrested earlier this year his phone revealed that he was the source of the drugs that ended up in Cumbria, said Jon Close, prosecuting.
David Lennon, for Baz, said the defendant had literally bumped into Wharton last year. She used to live in Blackburn.
He said: "She asked for regular drug supplies for her and her husband.
"He was living alone in a rundown terrace house in a high crime rate area."
Mr Chris Evans, for Mahmood, said his client had been involved on just the one day, ending up as the temporary custodian of two ounces of heroin provided by his uncle.

If your tackle box resembles mine, it's probably loaded with plugs of all shapes, sizes and colors. But these varied plugs all have in common one point - or, more accurately, six. Most come equipped with two treble hooks.
That means not only six points but six barbs. And what are these barbs for? To catch fish, you say. Wrong: They're there to catch fishermen.
Simply put, for catching most game fish in most situations, barbs on treble hooks are unnecessary. I really believe anyone who says otherwise hasn't spent much time fishing barbless plugs. Almost never do I fish plugs without first pinching down the barbs. Here's what I gain:
And here's what I lose by fishing barbless plugs:
Keeping in mind fundamental angling skills (always remembering the old adage to "keep a tight line"), there's no reason for your catch rate with barbless vs. barbed trebles to decline.
Yet it seems safe to say that very few pluggers bother to take a couple minutes to debarb their hooks. Why not? I know of no surveys offering hard data, but think it's safe to say that most anglers feel it's not worth their time to bother pinching down the barbs, or they fear losing more fish by using barbless hooks.
Since that's wrong on both counts, I present this appeal to readers: Pinch down the barbs on every plug before you take that first cast. My guess is that most who try won't go back to fishing barbed trebles.
But I have another appeal to make, this one to those who manufacture plugs: Start offering your lures with barbless treble hooks.
This isn't a naove call to stop selling plugs with barbed treble hooks; that won't happen. But manufacturers should offer anglers a choice (at least for most plugs) so they can buy their favorite plug in either a barbed- or barbless-hook version.
Manufacturers have an ethical responsibility to promote wise use of the resources. Offering barbless trebles is the right thing to do.
But more than that, it's also the smart thing to do. With increasing numbers of anglers putting more and more pressure on coastal game fish, the health of the tackle industry itself is at stake. Anything the industry can do to help conserve the resource it must do. And what a great opportunity this offers lure manufacturers to take a leadership role in conservation.
At a recent national symposium in Virginia Beach on catch-and-release sport fishing, I noticed most of the focus on circle hooks - truly a fabulous innovation. But little was said about treble hooks, and there are an awful lot of plug-tossers out there.
The time has come for anglers to start pinching their plugs' barbs down and for the industry to start offering barbless trebles so no one will have to pinch anything. Doing so will keep all elements of recreational fishing healthier: the industry, anglers and, of course, the fish on whose availability we all rely.
If your tackle box resembles mine, it's probably loaded with plugs of all shapes, sizes and colors. But these varied plugs all have in common one point - or, more accurately, six. Most come equipped with two treble hooks.

What does Google Voice do for Your Cell Phone?
Google Voice is a new service from Google that is speculated to have an enormous impact in the lives of tech savvy people across the globe (even though it is only available for American users at the moment.) The service is centered around the idea that people are trying to get a hold of you not the phone that you pick up, meaning that when someone calls your Google Voice number, you can have it programmed so that up to six different phones ring simultaneously. People no longer have to figure out whether or not you are at home, at the office, near your cell phone, or at your vacation house. You can program your contacts so that they ring at only some of your six possible phones so that if your boss calls, only your work phone will ring. But if your son calls, all six phones will ring.
So what does it mean for your cell phone? Well, to really take advantage of Google Voice with your cell phone, you need a cell phone that has WIFI. The best part of Google Voice is that it's totally FREE, but it is an Internet program so you need WIFI in order to get around being charged by your cell phone carrier. Once connected to the Internet via your cell, you can use Google Voice to call any cell phone or landline in the U.S. for free! You can also send and receive texts for free as well. In a nutshell, Google Voice is your new secretary who receives all of your calls/text messages and then forwards them to wherever you have instructed. Here is a list of some other features that make Google Voice appealing for the cell phone user:
Voicemail – Your Google Voice number comes with a cutting edge voice mail service. When someone starts leaving a voicemail, you can press a button on your cell and listen in on the message they are leaving. If you decide the call is important, you can answer it while they are leaving the message. Another great feature is that Google Voice's voicemail program will transcribe the voicemails that are left into text and then send you the text via email and text message.
Call Recording – When someone calls you, you can press 4 at any time during the call, and Google Voice will start recording the call. When you press 4 again, the recording will stop, and the recorded segment of the call will then be forwarded to your in box. So when you are driving and can't get to a pen and paper, just hit 4 and record whatever information you need.
Conference Calls – If you are having a conversation and someone else calls, you can add them to your call, and up to three more callers, creating a conference call.
Cheap International Rates – When using Google Voice to call overseas, you will receive much cheaper international rates than what your current service provider will charge. Calling a landline in London, for example, costs two cents per minute with Google Voice, where as it would cost $1.29 with AT&T or Verizon if you don't have an international calling plan.
Spam Blocker – You can tag numbers as spam so any time the number calls again, it is automatically forwarded to a spam folder.

AS Roma got themselves back on level terms against AC Milan and... well, the defending was pretty sad on Milan's part. A fairly regular corner was swung in my Miralem Pjanic, Gianluca Zambrotta tangled with Nicolas Burdisso and was simply outmuscled by the Roma defender, falling over and allowing Burdisso to nod into Christian Abbiati's bottom corner. The goalkeeper might have done better there - he didn't bother moving at all.
1-1 lasted about three minutes, because Roma did some more terrible defending and gave Milan their lead right back. It was another complete failure to defend a corner, and Alessandro Nesta was presented with a free header all of six yards from goal. There wasn't a red shirt within five yards of the centre back as he rather apologetically powered the ball past Maarten Stekelenburg to make it 2-1 Milan. It's all happing now - Roma reply by smashing a free kick (Mark van Bommel had picked up a yellow card for his challenge on Fabio Borini) just wide. Serie A. Boring. Fact.

Solicitor selling childrens books
Original post made by Craig on Jun 27, 2007
on Jun 27, 2007 at 9:59 am
That is a common tactic of solicitors, to pretend they are from the area, that they grew up in the neighborhood, that they know your neighbors or that they are doing business with your neighbors. I have on occasion had a little fun questioning them further on these claims -- one young man told me a lovely story about how he grew up around the corner. When I pushed him to be exact, he pointed toward "Atascadero" (he meant Arastradero), and from there his hands started waving more and more.
One thing to be very careful of is never to drop an actual name of a neighbor, they will use this information instead of making up names.
Who knows how old this tactic is -- I first realized solicitors were using this tactic maybe fifteen years ago, when I lived in a very close-knit neighborhood where I knew my neighbors in every house as far as you could see in any direction. When the solicitor started dropping names, I had my fun pinning him down (it's amazing how people who know they are lying squirm and try to keep it up even when it's obvious to both people that they are lying). But I was careful not to drop any actual names myself.
Just for yucks, it might be funny to drop some of those names Bart Simpson calls in to Moe's as if those are your neighbors' names. If you pick some obscure ones, the names might get repeated... On a more serious note, you could always agree with your neighbors to use a name that warns everyone that this is not a legitimate solicitor, and drop that name.
It's always good to know the neighbors, for so many reasons!

I think you're probably right - maybe "Max Payne" is a good name. I think he was probably just out to make a buck, but I certainly don't care for the way he was doing it.
on Jun 27, 2007 at 10:18 am
Sounds like the same guy who was in our neighborhood last week. His name is Alex Butler and he is passing himself off as a college student and this selling thing is his college thesis project (his words). He seemed very slick and not at all aware that not everybody appreciates his unwelcome wasting of your time. His selling tactics were embarrassingly sophomoric and his sense of humor was non-existent.

News: 50 Cent Issues Angry PSA, "The World Is So F*cked Up, People Don't Seem To Care Anymore"
Saturday, Oct 22, 2011 5:52PM
G-Unit leader 50 Cent is following in the steps of Lil Wayne by releasing his own public service announcement lashing out against corporations and politicians.
Unlike Weezy's PSA on Apple co-founder Steve Jobs' passing, 50 used the opportunity to share his thoughts on corporate America.
"The world is so f***** up People don't seem to care anymore People seem to have distanced themselves from other people's problems, they have been programmed not to care! Politicians are corrupt...So many companies are corrupt and taking excessive profits in certain sectors.......and we keep allowing this s*** to happen There are 1 billion plus people living in extreme poverty. You know what that is? You don't know if your getting your next meal, no shelter, no medical. You have no chance of hustling your way out of it! We have been programmed to not give a s*** about these people! Well I have woken up and Im not turning a blind eye anymore! Im not playing the game anymore. Our Company CEO's and politicians want us to keep our heads down and not ask questions. Not demand the truth they don't want us to care, they have trained us to turn a blind eye! Because they control us and profit from us this way! to push back at them questions and threatens their lifestyles." [sic] (This Is 50)
Fif said his aim is to ultimately address the global hunger problem.
"Children are dying everyday from hunger. Its f***** up, its wrong and I am angry Im not going to shut up or give up - f*** the system, its wrong. wake up we are being used! Innocent children are dying each day.... we need to shout out to companies, politicians that we aren't playing their games anymore We are waking up to their lies and deceitful dealings Im angry, Im going to make a difference and no one is going to stop me Join me if your tired of being used and manipulated Make this world fair for everyone" [sic] (This Is 50)
Bloggers have speculated over where 50's public service announcement ultimately stemmed from.
Somebody isn't happy. Earlier today, 50 vented out his frustration over the hate that he keeps receiving on Twitter in one form or the other. As you can see from his tweets, he is clearly unhappy from the response that he's been getting on his Street King mission although the page has already clocked over 310,000 Likes. He has now addressed the situation on his Street King Facebook page. (Hip Hop N More)
Last month, the G-Unit leader opened up about his Street King campaign to feed a billion children throughout the world.
"What's up, it's your boy 50 Cent," the G-Unit leader said in a video. "I'm actually out here in Austrailia on tour right now and man, I grew up without money but I didn't grow up hungry. It's a lot of people out there that are actually hungry -- actually dying ofhunger. And I feel like it's our responsiblity to come together and do things to create a solution for this actual problem. What I've seen from this actual run, when I was out in Africa, was unbeilievable, the devastation and desperation of people who don't know when they'll receive their next meal. Or if they're going to receive their next meal. I want to feed a billion kids and I need your help to do it. I need you to utilize your energy, your voice, to provide additional motivation for me at times. My new project is called SK, Street King and y'all know the plan. I just told y'all the plan. I want to feed a billion kids. It's your boy 50 Cent." (Street King)
