(This is moderately off-topic, but in light of the NBA Finals starting this evening, and the fact that our owner will likely be mentioned a dozen times every night, I decided to persevere.)
An individual's reasons for becoming a professional athlete are as varied as those for any other profession. Some see it as an extremely lucrative business opportunity; others view it as a way to fame and celebrity. Some view it as a way to escape the horrors of their past, and some want to use it to save their families from the same horrors. Some, even, view it simply as the job they're best suited for- one they've been born into merely by virtue of being tall, or strong, or fast.
Yet, there is a precious few for whom becoming a professional athlete is something more. To them, being great isn't just about money, or jewelry, or even championships. For these few, it's about the chance to live forever. If one is truly transcendent at their craft, if they've done something immensely and uniquely special, they become unstuck from time and exist not simply corporeally, but also in the consciousness of society, the clouds of cyberspace, and the written records of mankind. Their greatness moves beyond the temporal and into the infinite.
On occasion, you might spot the owner of the Charlotte Bobcats courtside at Time Warner Cable Arena. Usually looking like an inflated Steve Jobs in a black Hanes t-shirt and jeans, he'll sit and watch a game he has forever changed. He'll see his silhouette on players shoes, his jersey on fans in the stands, and his face on the video games advertised on the jumbotron. And yet, the silhouette and that face are not the same ones sitting in the collapsible chair on the hardwood. The slender dunk-artist is dislodged from the individual, and exists as something more than a person can ever be. And Michael knows this. He's no longer the player who shifted the paradigm of the sport, but is instead an owner trying to rebuild his reputation. This Michael Jordan doesn't stick his tongue out, sweat Gatorade, or play ball with the Looney Toons. He signs papers and plays golf.
Right now, at this moment, LeBron James is getting ready for the most important 4-7 games of basketball in his life. The stakes for his team are the highest they have ever been. If they fail to secure a championship, the Heat, as they are currently built, will cease to exist. Someone will be traded, the coach might be fired, or any combination of events could occur to reinvent the Heat as something new. More specifically to LeBron, however, the notion that he lacks something necessary to win will persevere if he loses, as will the backlash to such a notion, and the inevitable bickering between the columnists and blog-sters over what it means to truly be "clutch".
We cannot know what goes on in his mind. We can guess that he quit on the Cavs in Game 5, that he choked under the pressure of 2011, or that he pulled it all together for one, amazing "fuck you" game 5 against the Celtics last week. These are guesses. We can't know for certain. Our clues are limited to enigmatic post-game interviews, reports from locker room "sources", and his clear passion for the Hunger Games trilogy. Does he hear the criticism of his game? Does he care?
Say what you will about Michael Jordan's Hall of Fame speech, but it reaffirmed what we all thought about him. As he rattled off a litany of people who wronged him, who didn't believe in him, or who motivated him, you saw a man with a pathological need to beat others. He ridiculed the poor guy who beat him out for the last slot on the varsity team, he insulted Jeff Van Gundy, and he even said he felt bad for his kids because they had to live up to his greatness. For Michael, the curse of immortality is living to see someone greater than yourself surpass you. He feels threatened by LeBron because for the first time in his life, he's powerless to stop him.
Tonight is the first chapter of the second book of LeBron James. In the last book, he rose to prominence, left his hometown for the excitement of doing something never done before, and ultimately failed to achieve it in a pretty spectacular way. Now, tonight, something new is beginning. Whatever the outcome, surely none of us will ever forget what we saw. LeBron is a great player, but the distance between great and immortal is staggering. Tonight, LeBron gets his shot to live forever.
I have no doubt that Michael will be watching.

Great Games, Terrible Legacy - Resident Evil 4
Tom Mc Shea takes a look at how the legacy of Resident Evil 4 has shaped the survival horror genre.
More like Resident Evil 4 has shaped all succeeding over-the-shoulder shooters.
Zombi U is the only recent real survival horror game
silent hill homecoming was awesome! im sure it took some farts outta you
I too don't blame RE 4! In my opinion, I would say it was the uncontrolled evolution of the industry and corporations with dollar signs for eyes demanding ways to quickly generate revenue at the expense of quality! What? I'm not sure even I understood what I wrote!
People say RE6 sucks, yet they don't explain why it sucks... not defending it, I just need an explanation of the downfall of this series.
I thought ZombiU is scary because of the sound system and a lot of other stuff.
Resident Evil died with Raccoon City.
Closer and closer to action movies, and call of duty is what happened. Dead Space was terrifying to me. I was always afraid of what was going to come next. Even when you think you're safe you aren't. I was adding on to my gun and when I get done and turn around, what do you know a monster. I was battling something done a long corridor and when I step inside of a room, a monster was there to give me a warm welcome. Dead Space 2 was good for the mechanics that it brought in rather then the environment that it was presented. I'm pretty sure that Dead Space 3 will do the same.
I would have to disagree with you on the original Dead Space
after finally finishing RE6..RE has a long way to go to restore what it used to be
RE4 is a good game but incredibly overrated and it did kill the old school RE forever
si fue un gran juego
RE 4 was and is a great title. The original Dead Space is sweet too. I love the RE Remake on Game Cube. It was a classic, but I am fine with RE 4. It may have changed survival horror, but it was still horrifying. The problem is that RE 5 and RE 6 went off a cliff. They saw Activision raking in a billion dollars on a single title and tried to copy it. At least RE 5 bared some resemblance to RE4 (barely). But RE 6... what a load of crap that is. I still regret my pre-order. Yes, I played it... a lot. And I still hate it. I will not preorder RE 7. I will wait to hear from the fans on sites like this first. Lesson learned. I miss the horror that used to make these games fun. I still can't get the twisted, dark amusement park out of my head from Silent Hill 3. Or turning a corner in the Residence during the RE Remake and seeing a some dude swinging from a noose. You enter the bathroom, exit, and he is gone. Only to show up right behind you. That is what I miss. Even RE 4 had a great balance with the creepy rooms that would trap you with chanting cultists trying to cut you down. Now Dead Space is going co-op too. Why does everything have to be co-op?? If I want real co-op... I will pop in something like Borderlands 2. I don't blame COD. I blame the Capcom and other developers for not having the guts to believe in their own product. You CAN be different and successful. See Dark Souls or even better... Demon Souls (which is still heavily played today).
I don't blame RE4 for what has become of survival horror. I blame Capcom and their inability to look beyond their greed, I blame people and I blame COD(sorry COD but this sadly is on you too)

The key, for me, is overpower. You don't need a lot of guns and super weapons. They don't fit in a horror game. Also, cheap scares are not the main point, sometimes a simple room can be scaring and a promise of what to expect. Good art design, some mind tricks, the fact that you'll be dead if you don't watch yourself, and that your dead will be, likely, a horrible one.
There's nothing wrong with action games in the supernatural realm, but just don't try to label them like "horror" games.
to start off ive played most of the games in the RE series except the rail shooters, I do love those games but most of the scares were from bad controls and camera angles, if they made a game like that now it would get bashed on that alone, amnesia was a scary game and the new one coming out forgot the name looks really good, hope DS3 is good liked 1 and 2 so im sure it will be fun. All im saying its gonna be hard to make a game like silent hill and re the way they were, it gonna fill more action oriented just because your not moving like a tank, but i will always have love for those games(still can remember the first time those damn dogs break through the windows scared the hell out of me on RE and the great voice acting)
Well the key here is within the names look who was behind re4 no not capcom but Shinji Mikami look that name up and one can see why his games have been good the fact is survival horror games are not dieing off or rather turning into survival horror action but if done right can still be very fun just take a look at Shadows of the DAMNED
I lost my interesting in the RE franchise after 5. Having Co-op was so annoying. There was however a lot of things I liked about it. But yea, its more of the same.
i really love RE4, it is my favorite video game ! but yes is not the same from the first resident evil games, the survival horror has already end. But Im happy with the new concept of survival horror that RE4 has.
i just finished it AGAIN in 10 hours, this time from the playstation network lol
Why is more action a problem? What about doom 3, it had alot of action and, god it was scary!! RE4 was preety scary too, remmember regenerators? They doesnt freak you out but u get that creepy feeling when they walk towards you... those guys had it, dunno what but i enjoyed fighting them. Somehow, less ammo i had i was more scared so maybe difficulty could increase fear level... I have a friend who plays every game on easiest level, how can he enjoy game, how can he be frighted by monsters who take 2 shots to die. And then he uses his experience to judge game he played? We, players, are spoiled.
Would it be worth even upgrading to one of these or waiting til later in the year?
People want to complian about the changing of video game series.....change is inevitable...its going to happen, RE6 is a great game....yes it has tons of action in it but what a bunch of people overlook is the fact that there are 3 campaigns split up to provide the gamers with each of the genres of resident evil (i.e, Leon-survival horror, Chris- Action & Jake- A mix of the two). People complain about petty instances in video games because they want them made for just them, well its not going to happen. For example Call Of Duty has been horrible for years but alot of people continue to brag on it like its the best thing since sliced bread when the makers of Call Of Duty add one or two uninteresting features upon every release/sequel of the next upcoming game. Game styles change for the better, some change for the worst, but complaining about how it used to be won't change anything....just go rent a game or borrow it from someone, play it, then call it a day. Can't complain about a game when you bought it on your own free will!!!! (Oh yea, can't wait for the release of GOW: ASCENSION. The beta is badass!!!!!)
Hmm...some interesting comments guys. The remake of Res1 and Res2 will always be my favourites, maybe I'm just a slave to nostalgia? Res4 was and still is fantastic fun but as so many have said, those jumpy moments have gone, it continues with very graphic violence sure but I wouldn't hand it the horror label, more like something Paul Verhoven would make in the 80's. After Res4, number 5 came along and although missing the target it claimed to hit, the game wall loved was in there somewhere. As for number6, I'm really not sure, I wont say I hated but it simply wasn't my kind of game at all, I finished Leons story and touched the surface of the others but I honestly couldn't stand them.
I would be happy to continue showing interest in this series but until it suits my style like the way it used to then I think I'll be giving it a miss from now on...
...On that note, I'm gona keep trying to beat Krauser with my knife! Ha!
I completely agree with the commentator! While Resident Evil 4 was revolutionary, refreshing and enjoyable and RE 5 managed to maintain a reasonable balance of fear and intense actions, Resident Evil 6 just took the actions way too far. Where is the fear and horror? After spending an expensive 100 soaring Australian dollars I realised the game was totally unplayable due to my disappointment from the lack of fear and repeatedly killing monsters with the clumsy control.
Please Capcom team, bring back my favourite game of all time to life! Revolutions are not always successful and we must take failure as a lesson. Trace some steps back and think why fans loved the Resident Evil series, think the mansion, the creeping enemies, the lightening in RE 5 Lost in Nightmare - that game made me scream to the roof!
None of the games mentioned here were bad. As Mc Shea explains, they were just not horror games as they claimed to be. RE6 is not a bad game, but it definitely is not great. You might enjoy it, but who should you be to enjoy it? Horror game fan? Action game fan? That's what new Resident Evil games are missing. They claim to be horror games, but they are just gothic action games that don't satisfy most people.
Resident Evil 4 did it on the limits of horror genre. A little push and it'd become a horrible game. That's the reason new games are all fooled by its success. You are not supposed to do the action your main tool in a horror game. Horror is your main tool in a horror game and nothing ruins the ways of horror more than strong characters and action.
Saturday i just start play again RE1...RE2 and RE3 was masterpieceses....From RE4 to RE6 + Op.Racoon City was fail...Come-back to RE1,2,3 - this games are true horror. SAVE RE!!! Back the game to play like in 90'S no need this fail racoon city!
Why does one call RE4-6 a survival horror? Nor they have survival elements, neither they are horror.
1)RE games don't belong to survival genre. The linear gameplay is not survival. You just need to kill all foes, and reach the end of the level. You need to do the same thing in COD or Super Mario. This is not survival. Example of survival game: Dead Rising, Pathologic, System Shock.
2)RE 4-6 are not horror. Because they are not scary. Yes, the game can't be called horror just because there are dead people in it. L4D is not horror. Dead Rising is not horror. Plants vs. Zombies is not horror. RE4-6 are not horror. BECAUSE THEY CAN'T SCARE ANYONE unless that would be a 10-years-old who piss their pants while playing Plants vs. Zombies. Example of horror game: Amnesia, Fatal Frame, Silent Hill.Conclusion: RE4-6 have nothing in common with survival or horror, so please.
I would suggest that you all go back and play the survival horror type games that you didn't play in the 90's and early 00's.
I just bought Dino Crisis 2 on PSN. And even though it isn't survival horror per se, it does have that old Resident Evil feel to it.
Quite frankly, it is the most gaming fun I have had in a very long time. Remember, just because the technology gets better, it doesn't mean the games do. Go back and experience the massive, quality library of previous consoles.
@GameSptop because somebody understands regames more than other,,specially while have played it from the start;)
@jayd02 I'm with you hear. Unless you play on the easy difficulty, the game keeps you on your toes. Even at times when you think you've got the room covered, something is silently sneaking up behind you.
I recall times where I cringed at the sound of those necros with the explosive arms, especially when I couldn't see them - one wrong move or if you didn't find him in time and BAM! You're gone. Hardcore really brought the game to life for me.
@XxTheEvilxX Here's another comment I'm agreeing with - the co-op. Having loved Dead Space 1 & 2, I'm worried what will become of #3, purely because of the co-op aspect.
I'm looking forward to playing it still - and will do so with my brother who'll play it seriously too - but I just can't see how it can have that sense of lonely fear that the first 2 did.
@Deadly_Nemesis you sir are totally right im glad i was a teen in the 90's and enjoyed good games im sure you did too
But see it wasn't really the tank controls or fixed camera angles. It was the sense that you did not have a proper handle on the situation. For the most part in those games you were winging it. Never sure if you should waste your shots on a zombie now or try and run for it and save it for something else. and let's not forget that after 4 it seems everyone forgot all about atmosphere.
Jake Wesker? Please change your name. You are NOT a RE fan. You are a
poser casual that thinks RE4 is the best RE game. If RE4 is your
favorite game, that tells me alot about your inexperience as a gamer.
You sound foolish.
@jake_wesker survival horror isn't dead. Just because Resident Evil as a series has stopped being in that genre, doesn't mean it's dead. Wether we like it or not Amnesia is a survival horror game, heck... even ZombiU is a survival horror game. The point of all of this is, the big household names are moving away from what made them stay in this genre. But as the games get more realistic in terms of graphics, animations and the like, all the genre's will continue to evolve. And survival horror is evolving, maybe not like everyone would want it to, but it is. And right now, the only ones that "get it" in a way are indie developers.
"Realism" in videogames is becoming greater because of all the power new graphic engines can muster. The fact of the matter is, we don't need tank controls, we don't need clunky animations, we don't need the CCTV camera angle and the painted backgrounds. What we need is a good story, good character development and a terrifying atmosphere. We don't need strong military character types, we need an average joe that's thrown into a seemingly no win scenario.
The closest to this feeling I have had at this point, has been zombiU. Granted, it's not perfect, I will not sing it's praises, but it does give me a sense of dread as I navigate through the streets and buildings. It does make you dread opening a door to the other room because you barely have ammo, if you're surrounded there's no way to escape, and a single bite and you're dead. So, is the survival horror genre really dead? Because of RE4? No. Is survival horror dead in the RE series because of RE4? Maybe so. But that would be a more accurate statement.
@Compact87 RE4 was not scary. You just sucked at the old RE games.
@Compact87 More action takes away from what it's trying to be. It's suppose to be survival horror, your not suppose to be able to kill everything, your not suppose to have enough ammo, your suppose to jump in your seat, your suppose to fear the noises you hear. That's survival horror.
Doom 3 was never really survival horror, Doom has always been and always will be an action game. They just tried a little scary in the mix with part 3 and I'm not talking about that lame BFG edition from EA but the Original Doom 3, it was cool because you had to make a choice, your gun, or your flash light. It was a nice twist to keep Doom fresh.
Resident Evil 4 was not scary it was a great stroy a great action story. Not once did RE4 make me jump like I did in RE , RE 2, or even RE 3.
Remember where the origins of the game are... Survival Horror, when they turn away from that they are pretty much throwing something great into the trash. They are also abandoning the original crowd who purchased the original games to play something that was trying to scare them and force them to figure out ways out of horrible situations. It made you think and your palms sweat. That's what made those games great.
Everyone will have there own opinion but I played RE series because it was trying to scare me and that is why I no longer play it.
They aren't trying to scare me.
@Compact87 You're talking about comparing a FPS with a history of action to a 3rd person game that had more elements of puzzle solving than action with bad pacing.
More action makes it a totally separate game.
@Compact87 FEAR also had a lot of action but was still a scary game, Some games really can balance action and scares I think.
@mcarloss89 leon survival horror in RE6 BAHAHAHAHHAHAH it cant be survival when theres fucking ammos and green herbs dropping off zombies and crates/barrels in EVERY single rooms. Just like the trash that RE4 is. Seriously whoever is trying to defend RE4-6 stay away from this serie.
@andruxandd You have to play RE: Zero , RE: CVX and also Outbreak
@andruxandd I bet they sucked by todays standards didn't they? Games like Limbo hold up better than RE 1-3.
@kavadias1981 hahah I just did the same last week
@kavadias1981 Dino Crisis? Awesome!!!
@kavadias1981 Well the first Dino Crisis is more horror like, it had very dark enviroments and you wouldn't know when a dino may appear the 2nd is a lot easier than the first one
@Deadly_Nemesis Amen Brother! Today's so-called horror games feature a consistent atmosphere equivalent to jumping out of an exploding airplane with something slimey (the horror) hot on your heels while buildings are exploding and the sky is raining ash.. LOL
Today atmosphere is another Michael Bay movie backdrop in most games.
@SgtStrungOut RE4 is the best game. It introduced the over the shoulder camera that makes the games better. I would give anything to play RE 0, 1, 2 ,3 and CVX with that camera. Those games have excellent atmosphere and story, but the tank controls and fixed cameras suck. Give me those 5 games with RE4 camera and controls, and I'll be one truly happy gamer.
Mininum they could do is put DMC like controls on them, so that you're playing as a human, not a tank...
@Jediprince @jake_wesker The survival horror genre did not "evolve", it devolved to appeal to idiot gamers that sucked on the older RE games. RE4 is a joke of a survival horror game. It is what ruined the RE series.
@pimpofdoom FEAR was a lame FPS ripoff of every bad scary movie out. "Let's take the girl from The Ring and make her a focus of the this game using a bullet time mode that doesn't fit the story at all."
@GamerOuTLaWz @mcarloss89 what difficulty did you play on? the easiest? as i remember it resources were very short everywhere i went on 4 and 6 i agree with mcarloss89 6 is a amazing game stop trying to complain about it if you dont like it just dont play it and leave the people who do like it alone
@Kryptonbornson @andruxandd rofl no they dont at all. You mean,theyre actually better and are masterpieces next to the rushed linear movie-like crap we got nowadays

Lymington Tory chief Lady Georgina Craufurd suspended
12:16pm Friday 8th February 2013 in News
THE chairman of Lymington Conservatives has been suspended days after she launched a stinging attack on her own constituency association, the Daily Echo understands.
Lady Georgina Craufurd spoke out after party colleagues picked a New Milton councillor rather than a local member as the candidate for the county council elections in May.
Lady Georgina described the behaviour of New Forest West Conservative Association (NFWCA) over the selection of Cllr Alan O'Sullivan as so bad it could prompt some members of the Lymington branch to desert the party.
Philip Daubney, chairman of NFWCA, refused to comment, saying it was an internal matter for the association.

When I was a teenager I was shocked to meet people who said they didn't believe in Remembrance Day because they felt it celebrated the act of war. This angered me and to this day I feel very strongly about that comment. Remembrance Day is just that – a day to remember. Not the so-called "glories of war", but the people, the stories, the events and everything they went through.
I never had the chance to know my Canadian Grandparents, my grandmother died at 47 of Breast Cancer and Alzheimer's ravaged my Grandfather. Few photos and personal effects remain. Their stories have been passed down over and over again in my family, and I know of their goodness through the love of my Mother and Aunts and Uncles.
Like many couples of a certain generation, they met and married during WWII.
My Grandfather Gerry, the youngest of three, with shining blue eyes was always described as an outgoing showman who would MC events and loved to dance and sing. He was the type of man who would dress up at Christmas as Santa Claus for community events, and knew how to cook a mean Turkey.
When the war started, he tried to sign up with his older brother but was turned away since he was so slight and didn't weigh enough. He looked for any service that would take him, wanting to do something to help his country. The Merchant Navy signed him on, and off he went serving as a Cook on cargo ships, long and treacherous journeys across the ocean delivering desperately need supplies to troops.
Canadian Merchant Navy veterans were denied benefits and official recognition for years by the Canadian Government. When this was finally rectified my Grandfather was long dead. The men of the Merchant Navy spent long days and nights on those ships, sitting ducks, travelling to deliver troops and supplies, watching their buddies on other ships in the dark being blown up, never knowing when or if they would be next.
I have a few tattered postcards from my Grandfather that he sent home, and various stories of his misadventures around the world, some of which I couldn't repeat in polite company. One story though which I can, was apparently when they landed in Egypt, the men weren't allowed off the boat. However my Grandfather was determined. After months of travel onboard a ship in very hot and sunny climates my Grandfather was very dark and tanned. He somehow acquired a Fez and local dress, and when he donned this garb was able to pass as a local and sneak into the country. I couldn't imagine this happening today.
My Grandmother Edna, was a Canadian "Rosie the Riveter" working in a Munitions plant in Montreal during the course of the war. In the days she worked in the factory, and at night would be off dancing. A kind hearted woman, who in later life despite being equally poor, would help others in need and protected a mentally disabled man who was routinely beaten up and picked on in the community.
Gerry and Edna met on a blind date, set up by Mother's Uncle by Marriage, who subsequently ended up being quite the matchmaker, in setting up my parents and another Aunt and Uncle as well.
The date went well, more followed, and then an engagement.
Gerry sent word to his brother Francis about the coming marriage, as did Edna to her several brothers who were serving as part of the Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry Highlanders.
The story goes, that one night over dinner the two sets of brothers were talking about letters from home they'd received.
"My Baby Brother's getting married!"
"Congratulations! Our little Sister is getting married too!"
"Really? That's great news! We'll be on leave when the ceremony takes place, and my Brother's asked me to be his Best Man."
"Oh yeah? Same, we'll be back in Canada for Edna's wedding too."
"That's funny, my brothers fiancée is called Edna…"
And from there the conversation continued until they realized that their siblings were marrying one another. Bonds formed serving together deepened with the family connection. So far from home and the news of a wedding and promised happier times.
Today, I remember them with love.
I've never met these people who I owe my existence and way of life to, but because of the vibrant story telling tradition within my Canadian family I know them well. From my Mad Uncle climbing a flagpole during the liberation of the Netherlands to take down a Nazi flag while being shot at, to my Grandfather's Hijinks around the world, and my party girl Grandmother – strong-willed, working so hard in a factory yet still managing to look glamorous with flowers in her hair, today and always - Je me souviens.

Those using Canon's lower-end cinema camera can soon spend $500 for a sensor that improves autofocus performance. The dual-pixel technology debuted this year on Canon's 70D SLR.
It remains to be seen how well it works in the real world, but the new dual-pixel autofocus technology shows promise in Canon's promotional video about its latest SLR.
At CES 2011, Natali Morris takes a First Look at the emPower autofocusing eyeglasses.
With its latest firmware update for the PEN Micro Four Thirds cameras, Olympus addresses problems with the line's autofocus speed. The beta version we tested only partly delivers, though.
Early reviews of Canon's 1D Mark IV SLR by professional photographers indicate Canon could be on its way to shaking a reputation for sub-par autofocus.
The latest iteration of Canon's pro sports shooter incorporates HD video, a boost to the autofocus system and the requisite sky-high maximum sensitivity of ISO 102,400.
Chinese language blog UMPCFever releases photos purported to be of the next-generation iPhone running iPhone OS 3.0 and demoing new camera and compass features.
Canon fixes have made the high-end camera better, but Rob Galbraith's tests show the older 1D Mark II N still outperforms its successor in bright conditions.
The SLR maker plans to publish instructions in coming weeks for how people can fix a problem that had afflicted the new 1D Mark III camera.

When Connecticut Light & Power's self-imposed Sunday deadline came, there were just 179 customers left without power in Southington, marking a decrease to less than 1 percent of the community. By 9:55 a.m. Monday morning, 110 remained without power.
Garry Brumback said Monday morning that 17 line crews and 10 tree cutting crews are now on the street and according to a new estimated time-line released to the town today Sunday, the last customer should see power restored by midnight tonight.
"There's still work to be done, but we are making progress," said Brumback, who held several meetings at the town's Emergency Operations Center Sunday evening.
The progress marked , when the town still had more than 6,700 without power.
As of 9:55 a.m. Monday, some 63,000 customers throughout the state were still without power, according to CL&P.
Although crews were able to reach the goal in Southington Sunday - something they did just before the midnight deadline - other towns across the state were not so lucky.
CL&P President and Chief Operating Officer Jeffrey Butler that a total of 31 towns would not be restored to 99 percent by the deadline, including nearby Farmington, Avon, Canton and West Hartford. Butler said the company is committed to reaching a Wednesday night deadline to complete 100 percent restoration from the storm.
"I am saying we will have 100 percent power restoration completed by Wednesday. Not by the end of week, but by Wednesday and I stand by that," Butler said.
Students return to schools as the community looks to get back to life as normal and elections will go on as planned Tuesday.
Here's a look at the other need-to-knows for Monday morning, as provided by the through their Facebook page:
Bulky Waste Transfer Station
The Bulky Waste Transfer Station on Old Turnpike Road will be open Monday, Nov. 7, through Saturday, Nov. 12, for brush only. The station is open daily from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Leaf Pickup

Crankshaft pulley removal
Another issue I've encountered that need to be addressed. I need to remove the pront crank pulley but do not have the tools required. Does anyone in the temple, Belton, Killeen, or Waco Texas area have what is needed to do this? Sure could use a hand on doing this please!
Re: Crankshaft pulley removal
Here's a link showing how to do it with a bearing separator and two jaw puller which should be easy to borrow: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=44517

Re: Crankshaft pulley removal
I got a cheap bearing puller/ separator from harbor freight and it did good on mine. Front shaft was leaking like a sieve. Put in a speedy sleeve kit....no more leaks!
I'll be drinking that free bubble up, and eatin that rainbow stew.
Re: Crankshaft pulley removal
Like clodhopper,I picked up a 14pc bearing puller set fromHF on the way home today. Worked like a champ, pulley came right off very easily. Very surprised and happy! Thanks everyone...
Re: Crankshaft pulley removal
Thanks for the useful link Bob...
Re: Crankshaft pulley removal
I need to tackle this job on Lewis, and am going to try the bearing separator method when I do it. Since Lewis is going to get a complete double-pump rework, I haven't decided whether to start at the front and work backwards (painting as I go) or start at the rear and work my way forward. Depending on which way I go will determine when I hit what project!

Police attempted to stop a vehicle just before it eluded officers, lost control and slammed into a light pole, killing the driver.
Las Vegas Metro police reported the wreck just after 4 a.m. Friday on Spring Mountain Road near Decatur Boulevard.
According to police, the vehicle - a 2011 Scion TC - was speeding westbound on Spring Mountain when it struck a bump in the road, lost control and veered into a light pole and then a wall next to a Jack in the Box fast food restaurant.
Just before the wreck, Metro said officers were attempting a traffic stop in the area of Las Vegas Boulevard and Spring Mountain Road. The vehicle, though, did not stop for the officers.
The patrol car, instead, did not pursue the vehicle.
The driver was later identified as 35-year-old Quintus Alton. The Clark County Coroner's Office said Alton died of multiple blunt force injuries, and his death was ruled an accident.
Spring Mountain between Lindell and Decatur was shut down as a result of the wreck.
Police also noted once officers arrived on scene, another vehicle struck a patrol car. Police said the driver in the vehicle was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.
The wreck represented the 10th traffic-related fatality in Metro's jurisdiction this year.

Westwood Police set up roadblocks Thursday afternoon and Friday morning on Lafayette Avenue to stop drivers in their search for information about a luring incident Thursday morning, according to Police Chief Frank Regino. Police said the man may have been involved in other recent luring incidents around Bergen County.
At their roadblocks, police passed out flyers to drivers and asked if anyone had seen anything related to Thursday's incident. Regino estimated police had passed out 2,000 flyers.
A Westwood Jr./Sr. High School student reported a man had stopped and offered her a ride at about 7:10 a.m. Thursday while she was walking to school on Lafayette Avenue. There have been about a half-a-dozen reported luring incidents around Bergen County since two occured in Washington Township last month.
Regino said it was "a possibility" that the man involved in Thursday's incident had also been involved in other recent luring attempts around Bergen County, including those in Washington Township.
"Most are saying that the composite seems to resemble the one that happened in the township in September," Regino said.
Westwood Police were working with the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office and State Police to find the man, according to Regino.
Police described the man as being middle-aged and balding with a crew cut. He was driving a gray four-door hatchback with a NYPD sticker in the front left windshield.
Police are asking anyone with information about the incident to call them at 201-664-7000. Regino said the department's detectives would investigate every lead.
In addition to the Washington Township incidents, luring attempts have recently been reported in Oradell, Maywood, Hackensack and Ridgewood, among others. An attempted luring of a 17-year-old girl was reported in New Milford Thursday afternoon. Police there were also working on a sketch of the man involved in that incident.

Finally, emerging out of the Miramax fiasco and heading to cinemas thanks to FilmDistrict, the Guillermo del Toro-produced horror flick "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" is on the way and you know what? It actually looks like it's going to pack some good scares in a film that doesn't have anyone being tortured or was made for $1 million dollars and shot with a handheld camera.
Empire has dropped a new U.K. trailer for the film which shows a lot more than the teaser that has been floating around for a while now. Directed by Troy Nixey and starring Guy Pearce, Katie Holmes and Bailee Madison, the film—a remake of 1973 TV movie—centers on a family who move into a derelict house, only to experience the unveiling of some terrifying creatures. We really dig the overall moodiness and atmosphere we see here and aside from the closing jump scare, this appears to be one that will slowly raise your goosebumps before frightening the bejesus out of you. All three actors look to be in top form too; we've been a fan of Madison since her turn in "Brothers" and the young thesp looks strong again here, and Pearce as usual looks great.
"Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" opens on August 12th. Check out the trailer below.
Sean | May 29, 2011 1:49 AM
Now this looks bland. Boring and tired idea, done to death (i think this could be a bad pun).
Don't Be Afraid of the Dark? There's scarier things to be frighten of, such as Katie Holmes is your lame mother in this movie.
Plus when all those voices kept chanting (or saying something inaudible during the last third of the trailer), did anyone else think of the mock trailer by Edgar Wright, "Don't"?
Lincoln | May 28, 2011 6:10 AM
As someone who loved Drag me to Hell, this seems in the same vein but I have to ask, what the hell is coming out of or going into Katie Holmes' nose towards the end there? Am I seeing things? It certainly looks like something is stuck in her nostril. Any ideas?
johannn | May 28, 2011 1:52 AM
wow all horrormonsterghosts in the haunted mansion clichés packed into one movie. do not want.
ronjay | May 27, 2011 11:52 AM
How does the trailer for 50/50 get called bland by you peeps and this gets positive feedback?

I've been held against my will in San Quentin for the past 20 years, awaiting my state sanctioned MURDER. I was never truly given the opportunity to prove my innocence. Because our people are still marching, standing our ground in order to let this corrupt system know that the fight will remain steadfast, this is why this T-shirt was made.

I love all the paper I bought. I do wish you had cotton & soy bean paper.
I love this paper and it is perfect for a teacher's scrapbook.
This paper was a disappointment. It was so blurry. Didn't look at all like the photo. I guess it depends on what you're using it for but I won't be using it for my project.

I attended this school from 1st through 12th grades and it was truly the best school I could have asked for. My class of 60 people was extremely close and everyone looked out for each other and hung out with each other. The teachers were of a kind of caliber I didn't even fully appreciate until I attended college and rarely had the kind of passionate, concerned teachers that I had at Tower Hill. Several teachers are true masters of their subjects and teach in a way that is exciting, interesting, and sticks with you for the rest of your life (I remember almost everything that I learned in high school-- and this has given me a huge jump in higher education!). Not only that, but the curriculum is well planned a wide spreading so more information is covered, and covered well than at most other comprable high schools. Tower Hill is truly an amazing place with an incredible sense of community and incredible opportunities. I can not say enough nice things about it.
My son started the 9th grade at Tower Hill this year. I can't say enough good things about the school: His peers: They are absolutely a great bunch of kids who all get along really well. As a group, the boys have a great sense of humor. They will joke back and forth, but no one is "picked on". The school emphasizes teamwork, and it definitely shows. I'm sure my son will have lifelong Tower Hill friends after he graduates. Teachers: The teachers make it interesting, and fun to learn. My son, who is definitely not a reader, enjoys the books picked out by the English teacher to study. The writing projects are interesting, and he does not moan about them. History is not a regurgitation of facts. Rather, the student is taught the material and learns about the historical perspective in the era, and the significance of it. These are
Excellent school. My daughter attended TH from the 3rd through the 9th grade (we moved away to another state thereafter). Excellent teachers, great curriculum, motivated kids.

L to R R to L Alpha
This is an exceptional crack route on the northeast corner of Chicken Head Ranch. Cruise a crack in the corner to the left and then transition right to the main, thin line. This can feel slightly sketch here, but a #3 Camalot on a sling in the corner should work fine. Bomber (but slightly painful) finger locks lead to an even thinner crack where crimpers just so happen to be perfectly placed outside the crack. Make a long reach to a fist/hand jam and then you have cruiser climbing to the bolted anchor. The climbing was pretty continuous, but no move felt harder than 5.11b. I'm not sure why it's rated 5.12 in the Anderson guide. It is good though and is definitely worth doing, so don't let the guidebook grade scare you off.
This ascends the Northeast corner of Chicken Head Ranch, just right of a low-angled, bush-choked, right-facing corner (Tim's Route). The striking thin crack 25 feet up is hard to miss.
Mostly thin gear with the ocassional hand-sized piece, and it'll eat up nuts. I took doubles to a 0.5 and one from #0.75-3 Camalot and had plenty of cams on my harness left over.

Stanley Nudelman turns the boring town of Dementedyville on its head when he buys a mysterious toy at his neighbor's yard sale.

Jim Campbell Solo Exhibition Opens Today at Museum of the Moving Image
Museum of the Moving Image presents the first solo museum exhibition in New York of the work of Jim Campbell (b. 1956), the San Francisco-based artist best known for his evocative low resolution works.
An innovator in the use of technology, Campbell integrates and manipulates computers and custom electronics into visually arresting artworks. The survey exhibition, Jim Campbell: Rhythms of Perception, features more than 20 works that span Campbell's 30-year career. It will include early experimental film, interactive artworks, low resolution videos, large-scale sculptural installations, and the premiere of a new work, Self Portrait of Jim Campbell (with Disturbances) (2014). Among the highlights is the rarely shown Last Day in the Beginning of March (2003), which features 26 suspended light bulbs and a soundscape that evokes the last day in the life of the artist's brother.
The exhibition opens in New York City today, March 21, 2014 and will be on view through June 15.
Among Campbell's celebrated works are his experiments in low resolution imagery using LED lights. The exhibition Jim Campbell: Rhythms of Perception will feature several of these works, including Home Movies, 1040-1, (2008), a large-scale grid of LEDs, which project Campbell's own home movies, as shadowy digital images on the wall, and two pieces from his Motion and Rest series (2002), which depict the movement of a disabled person across a low resolution screen of LED lights, a presentation that renders the personal characteristics of the subject into an abstraction.
Campbell's low resolution works expanded into three dimensions with the Exploded View series (2010-2011), in which moving images-depicting birds, runners, and commuters-break out along a z-axis. From most perspectives, the work appears as a random array of blinking lights. But from a privileged vantage point, the subject shifts into focus: figures barely decipherable by the eye but strangely comprehensible to the mind. Exploded View (Commuters) (2011), a work previously shown by the Museum, will be included in this exhibition.
The exhibition will also include significant early works: In Shadow for Heisenberg (1993-1994), a statue of a Buddha ensconced in a glass cube becomes obscured: the closer a viewer comes to the piece, the more the glass fogs, and the shadow of the Buddha becomes clearer. Another early work in the exhibition is Color by Number (1998-1999): two four-by-four feet screens become dynamic color fields, with colors generated by the movement of a pixel over a digital image out of direct sight in a booth behind each large screen.
Jim Campbell: Rhythms of Perception is organized by guest curator Steve Dietz, Founder, President, and Artistic Director of Northern.Lights.mn, and editor of Campbell's retrospective catalog Jim Campbell: Material Light (2010, Hatje Cantz).
"Like Rembrandt, Jim is a master with light, a portraitist for this age," commented Dietz. "Jim's work is fascinating for the rigor of his process, using his sophisticated technological facility to restlessly explore a series of problems that are grounded in the physiology of perception but which ultimately escape into a rhythmic world of wonder."
On Saturday, March 22, at 2:00 p.m., the Museum will present a public conversation with Jim Campbell and curator Steve Dietz. Tickets are free with Museum admission.
Jim Campbell is renowned as an innovator in the use of technology in art, making custom computer chips and related electronics for most of his works. He was born in 1956 in Chicago, Illinois, and received degrees in both electrical engineering and mathematics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1978. As an engineer he holds more than a dozen patents in the field of video image processing. His work has been shown internationally and throughout North America. His work is included in the collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art; The Museum of Modern Art; the Metropolitan Museum of Art; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA); the Los Angeles County Museum of Art among others. SFMOMA honored Campbell with the 2012 Bay Area Treasure Award for lifetime achievement in October.
An exhibition of new work by Jim Campbell will be on view at Bryce Wolkowitz Gallery in Chelsea from March 7 through April 19, 2014. New Work will focus on the pioneering artist's most recent series of sculptural light installations. In three separate series on view: Topographies, Reconstructions, and Home Movies, the artist continues to challenge notions of image making and the experience of viewing by injecting color (an element rarely used before) into his illuminated palette. For more information, visit http://brycewolkowitz.com.
In addition, New York's Joyce Theater will present Constellation, a collaboration between Alonzo King LINES Ballet and Jim Campbell, from March 18 through 23, 2014. The performance will feature an installation comprised of 1,000 light spheres programmed in synchronized interplay with the dancers. For more information, visit: www.joyce.org.

The FAA furloughs kicked in on Sunday despite a lawsuit filed by two airline trade associations and the Airline Pilots Association, and it's already causing frustration for those trying to fly the friendly skies.
Some analysts estimate that the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport won't see much of an effect, but several travelers told FOX 9 News they are bracing themselves.
Federal officials say they have no choice but to furlough all 47,000 FAA employees, including 15,000 air traffic controllers, if they are going to cut more than $600 million from the agency's budget by the end of September as required by the sequester cuts. That means each employee will lose a day of work every other week.
As one might expect, fewer air traffic controllers means planes have to take off and land less often, and the furloughs could result in flight delays or cancellations for a third of passengers.
When the furloughs began on Sunday morning, Delta Airlines put the following statement on their website to voice their disappointment:
On behalf of our customers and employees, Delta is disappointed that furloughs of Federal Aviation Administration personnel will result in delays and cancellations across the national air transportation system. The FAA has advised Delta that furlough-driven delays are most likely to occur at the following 10 airports:
New York-LaGuardia
New York-JFK
Newark Liberty
Fort Lauderdale
Chicago O'Hare
Chicago Midway
San Francisco
Los Angeles (LAX)
San Diego
Delta will continue to do everything possible to mitigate these delays for our customers. As always, we encourage customers to check their flight status at delta.com or on the Fly Delta app before arriving at the airport.
Customers may contact their representatives in Congress about the FAA furloughs at www.dontgroundamerica.com
Since so many major hubs are likely to feel the impact of the furloughs, travelers in the Twin Cities are expected to feel the ripple effects. AAA recommends getting to the airport earlier than normal -- and remember to pack your patience.

Something I can't understand from such a lone-franchise with so much potential to compete with the best of em when it comes to EA Sports. I touched on this franchise before, but for different reasons, I'm not sure what really, it was a while back. Anyway, it's a new year, and I'm looking forward to what's new from the new Fight Night Game when it drops. If you ask me, the only thing that stood out in previous FN Champion is the graphics. The whole motioning and phantom punches that can even K.O. u with one shot (or should I say, no shot) turned me off with that game online, to the point where if this next one don't impress, I'm calling it a career with the boxing games. More to my Point though.
A friend of mine tried to explain to me the reason why MORE stars in this sport won't take part in the game (FLOYD among others). He said "with games like UFC, Madden, NBA all operated under 1 brand, and each Boxer is his own brand BLAH, BLAH, BLAH. I get that, but still I don't see why fighters even treat opportunities at gaming exposure like a negotiation to a super-fight. You put the name of all the stars or potential stars you can name today on the disk, put Floyd face on the cover and it'll sell out like Samuel L. Jackson in Django Unchained. All fans and gamers alike jus wanna match dream fights with there favorites and what we get for it is the same non sense we see from Top Rank & GBP's rivalry. Honestly, Is there no logic in seeing your own image and style, promoted on a game that can pay you in more ways than 1? Sheesh! Hopefully this upcoming game can keep the fighters they already have while adding more faces like Mayweather, Ward, Martinez, Broner, Froch, Direll, Mares, Rigo, Matthysse, Chavez Jr., the list goes on.

Yall in here crappin on a friend of mine who works on the franchise for EA lmao. A lot of the developers for the EA games are from Chicago. For those who don't know the boxing series by EA started here in Chicago and they had a program which my best friend and current business partner took part in. He went to Columbia college and they interned there and the successful ones got jobs upon graduation.
From what he told me they always wanted Floyd in the game but he says he didn't know if Mayweahter wanted to license his image. That's one of the key differences between these games and NBA, Madden, etc. The NFL and the NBA and the MLB have a agreement between the players' unions in those sports and the league itself. They share the revenue between those 3 parties and that's that
Boxing is a little different in that it's an individual fighter licensing their image away but they do still have a team around them. And when your an individual, essentially you are a brand and you have to do what's best for that brand
My friend does computer animation for EA, and he hates working there. He's a football guy and I think working on the ncaa title is what keeps him there instead of going over to 2K. I personally think 2K should jump in the game and force EA to put out a better product. Look what they did to EA in the basketball genre!
I'll ask him what they got going on up there and see if I can get something out of him. I know the games they work on all year round are NCAA and Madden

(WMC-TV) - Most of the employees at the federal prison in Forrest City are working without knowing when they will get a paycheck because of the government shutdown, but some of the inmates who get paid for the work they do inside will have no problem collecting their money.
"It just seems wrong on so many levels," said Federal prison employee and local union president Jeff Roberts.
Roberts is not getting paid right now even though he goes to work each day. He is one of about 600 workers at the facility impacted by the government shutdown.
"There's a sense of fear among the employees, they do not want to have to default on a loan or have their credit affected or have a bad name within the community," said Roberts.
But the prisoners they are guarding are still getting money for landscaping and other work done inside the jail.
"The inmates who have committed the crimes in this country and are incarcerated by violating the laws of common society, they're not affected by the shutdown, but the employees that we trust to keep our communities safe are," said Roberts.
Roberts says the inmates are still paid because their money comes out of a trust fund that is not tied to appropriated funds. He hopes leaders in Washington can work out a deal before the problems spill over into town.
"The last thing we need to have is the community have debts that are not being paid, houses not being paid, lights turned off," said Roberts.
Another prison in Mason, Tennessee that can house federal inmates is not having similar issues because a private company runs it, according to a spokesperson.

Childress: We just finished six practices with the rookies and select vets. We tried to teach them our tempo, our system, kind of how we do business. They are doing a good job with all of those things. They should be able to compete more favorably than that first mini-camp when the veterans show back up here on Monday. A couple of injury things, Joey Goodspeed had surgery with Dr. (James) Andrews on Thursday, and Troy Williamson saw the doctor today down in South Carolina. He's going to see him again in two weeks. There is an outside chance that maybe he gets back for a little bit of that last mini-camp.
Q: What did you see from Aaron Hosack?
A: Great hand-eye coordination. Obviously he's a bigger target, which quarterbacks love. He kind of vacuums up the football. As my old stats guy used to say, receivers by definition should receive, and he does a good job of doing that.
Q: How about Tarvaris Jackson?
A: He's done a good job of jumping in. We got into some situational football here for both the offense and the defense. He's moving through the system and then learning how we do business in different situations such as your third down and your two-minute that you saw here today, but he's progressing.
Q: Do all of the reps he is getting really help?
A: It really does. When you're the only guy on the line, you don't get to look around and say come on up here and take a turn. When you get every turn, generally you're going to improve, and that was kind of one of our thoughts in terms of just having him take every rep.
Q: You said he has been here quite a bit. How do you monitor that?
A: Part of this two-week process is kind of teaching these guys how to be professionals as well. They don't have any idea. They are in this building, most of them, at 6:00 in the morning and a lot of them aren't leaving until 3:30 or 4:00 p.m. We're kind of monopolizing their time both on the field, in the classroom, in walk-throughs, just to kind of really accelerate the learning curve. He's done a great job of embracing that. You can't give him enough and he's kind of committing it all to memory.
Q: What are your thoughts on Ronyell Whitaker and what advantage does he have coming from the Tampa Bay system with Mike Tomlin?
A: I think the great thing is that they have a feel for his football character and how he plays the game. He's a great competitor. He already caught our guys' eyes in special teams area. He's got a chance. You like those guys that compete. I think with all of those NFL Europe guys, particularly at the skill positions, (Aaron) Hosack, Whitaker, you have to be careful that you don't run their legs off because I go back to Brian Finneran with us the first year at Philadelphia. We ended up waiving him just because there was no gas left in the tank. He's a good football player and ended up having a nice career with Atlanta, but because NFL Europe had gone a little bit later back then and because he was a receiver, he spent about six months running. It's hard when you come to a training camp with all of that running when you've just been through a bunch of it.
Q: Is that always one of the biggest challenges is teaching guys that this is a full-time job?
A: Well, it's more of a challenge but I'm not going to say it's the biggest challenge. Certainly part of what you are teaching them is professionalism that is involved. The tempo is different and the words and nomenclature is different. I would just say it's one of the challenges, probably not the biggest challenge.
Q: How familiar are you with Rick Spielman?
A: I've known Rick for a long time and knew what kind of person he was, a good person, and I'm excited to be working with him. I'm very excited.
Q: Have you been happy with what you've seen from Chad Greenway?
A: Yeah, as a matter of fact I think it was him that got his hands on one of Tarvaris' passes today. He did a good job coming off the backside. He's playing faster. The more these guys are familiar with their assignments, the faster they will play, and that's what we're trying to emphasize.
Q: Do you expect more veterans here next week?
A: Yeah, I expect them all.Kentucky Vikes Fan
When you require nothing, you get nothing; when you expect nothing, you will find nothing; when you embrace nothing, all you will have is nothing.
Re: QUOTES FROM COACH CHILDRESS
Greenway showin why he's a 1st round pickIts not braggin if you can do it!!!
Re: QUOTES FROM COACH CHILDRESS
At least he didn't say TJ was breathing well! :lol:
Re: QUOTES FROM COACH CHILDRESS
Good deal.. I am getting excited for the season..
Re: QUOTES FROM COACH CHILDRESS
I love this quote.
Q: Do you expect more veterans here next week?
A: Yeah, I expect them all.
Re: QUOTES FROM COACH CHILDRESS
I really like hearing that TJ is getting alot of reps, and that he is spending alot of time at the facility. He really seems to have his head in right place to make something of himself in this league.
And Greenway is just being Greenway. Obviously, he is working hard, and will continue to dso nothing but improve as he learns his assignments.

A Bay County organization is gaining momentum in it's drive to assist those living below the poverty line. AP Family Life Educational Counseling has two programs going on to assist children of families living below the poverty line.
One of those is the backpack program, backpacks that are filled with a wide range of food and distributed free of charge. The other program, Nutrition for Success, is aimed at teaching low income families the finer details on how to prepare nutritious meals for their families.
Currently the communities served by these projects are Springfield and Cedar Grove Elementary Schools, but APFLEC is looking to expand to other schools in Bay County.
Donations of nonperishable food for the backpack program are appreciated and volunteers are needed to help in distribution and other functions. For more information, call the agency at 763-8100.

News: Drake Reacts To "Take Care" Early Arrival, Addresses Premature Leak
Monday, Nov 7, 2011 9:05AM
Young Money star Drake has come forward to address his upcoming Take Care sophomore album prematurely reaching the computers of Internet users over the weekend.
While uncertain if the LP leaked in its entirety, Drizzy shared his reaction via Twitter.
"I am not sure if the album leaked. But if it did thank god it doesn't happen a month early anymore.," Drizzy tweeted November 6th.
"Listen, enjoy it, buy it if you like it...and take care until next time." (Drake's Twitter)
Drake's album began leaking track-by-track over the past few days.
Nine days before its release date, Drake's sophomore album has sprung a leak, starting with Just Blaze-produced "Lord Knows," featuring Rick Ross, and "Take Care," featuring Rihanna. The two songs off "Take Care" (Nov. 15) hit the 'net tonight (Nov. 6) while Drake premiered The Weeknd-assisted "Crew Love" on Toronto's Flow 93.5. "I know you've been hurt by someone else/ I can tell by the way you carry yourself/ If you let me here's what I'll do/ I'll take care of you/ I've loved and I've lost," Rih Rih opens "Take Care." Drizzy and Rihanna reunite to promise to "take care" of their scarred lovers on the album title track, which also samples Gil Scott-Heron and Jamie XX's "I'll Take Care of You." (Billboard)
Last week, the LP's tracklisting found its way online.
1. Over My Dead Body 2. Shot For Me 3. Headlines 4. Crew Love 5. Take Care 6. Marvin's Room / Buried Alive Interlude 7. Under Ground Kings 8. We'll Be Fine 9. Make Me Proud (Feat. Nicki Minaj) 10. Lord Knows 11. Cameras / Good Ones Go Interlude 12. Doing It Wrong 13. The Real Her 14. HYFR (Hell Ya F*ckin Right) 15. Look What You've Done 16. Practice (Take Care)
Initially slated to drop on his birthday last month, Drizzy delayed Take Care through mid-November.
"The new date for Take Care is November 15th, 2011. I managed to create this album in my hometown of Toronto and the thoughts and stories I wanted to get across just became so clear. It truly felt like when I was here 3 years ago making So Far Gone. So I have completed 19 songs (17 on physical and 2 on bonus), and have run into a roadblock of clearing 3 samples in time to make the October 24th date. My options were to take the songs off and make the birthday release happen, or to take an extra couple weeks to get the paper work right and give you the album they way I NEED you to hear it. The choice was clear as day for me. November 15th you will get Take Care the exact way I created it with no trimmings. This music means too much to me to get attached to dates and I do apologize for the delay but I promise that it is only for the benefit of our experience together. Club Paradise Tour will also be moved to when students are back from the Christmas/New Year break so that I can get to more schools. New dates will be released in the next week...see you all soon." (October's Very Own)
Take Care is slated to drop Tuesday, November 15th.
Check out some recent Drake footage below:

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Police are investigating after a body was found in a dumpster in the 4200 block of Allmond Avenue east of Southern Parkway.
The dumpster was behind the Greater Louisville Funeral Limousine Service.
At this time, police are releasing few details, but we do know that the body was a white male in his 20s or 30s. Police say they do suspect foul play, and that the body suffered trauma.
The body was discovered by an employee.
Police are also examining a vehicle in a nearby parking lot -- a blue Chevy Impala with Indiana tags -- which may have some connection to the crime.
Neighbors say this is not something you'd expect to happen in their area.
"This is the first thing I've ever heard that happened that shouldn't," said neighbor Rufus Ford.
Anyone with information is asked to call the LMPD crime tipline at 502-574-LMPD (574-5673). Callers can remain anonymous.

Helping Aboriginal students succeed
Queen's is receiving more than $1 million in additional funding this year from the provincial government to attract and support aboriginal students.
The announcement was made January 22 at Queen's Four Directions Aboriginal Student Centre by Kingston and the Islands MPP John Gerresten.
Almost $700,000 is supporting aboriginal teaching and student services, including Queen's Aboriginal Teacher Education Program and the Four Directions Aboriginal Student Centre.
"This contribution will help integrate aboriginal students, culture and values in the fabric of Queen's and creates opportunities for more students to study in needed areas at the undergraduate and graduate levels," said Mark Green, co-chair of Queen's Aboriginal Council and a Civil Engineering professor. "An access initiative in Mining and two new masters programs in Education and Policy Studies, for example, are key to building leadership and capacity within aboriginal communities now and for the future."
There's also $41,000 in new bursaries for aboriginal students and $342,000 for Queen's University Experience program, which supports, encourages, and excites First Generation high school students, including those in aboriginal communities, about the possibilities of pursuing post-secondary education.
"Our goal is to get students on campus, to experience what university is like, so they can picture themselves as university students," says University Registrar Jo-Anne Brady. "The opportunity to learn more about university and participate in a variety of academic workshops breaks down myths about how difficult or financially inaccessible higher education actually is for bright young students and they recognize that university is a realizable goal for their future."
Gloria Thomas, a Phd student in the Faculty of Education and member of the Onondaga Nation in the Hodinohsoni Confederacy, says the investment reflects an important growth in aboriginal programming. "This is exciting because it is happening in a university atmosphere, increasing awareness of our people and culture…It is a way of bringing our community with us when we come to campus."
The funding is part of the government's $26.4 million investment in Aboriginal postsecondary education in 2009-10.
