This is a chinese controller. The r2 and l2 triggers are hard. Beleive me Im an insane gamer. Ive beat more than a hundred games in ps3. I bought this to play multiplayer. When I took it out of the box it looked so fragile. So decided to use it myself and give my sony controller to my buddy. Still the left anolog stick broke.the analog sticks are supposed to be in the center. When oull it to aside and leave it supposed to come back to its original position. But in this if u pull it to one take ur thumb off it stays there. It stays there.

Flipkart does a good job delivering products quickly. However my joy didn't last long. The left analog stick had a problem, it couldn't detect far top-left state. So I asked for a replacement.
Again Flipkart did a good job delivering the replacement within a week and picking up the defective controller at the same time.
But yet again, another defect. This time the controllers battery wasn't charging. The controller worked fine when connected to USB, but just didn't charge.
Now I have decided to return the Amigo controller and go for a Sony original one.
The low price point of Amigo is attr... (Expand)
Amigo does their best to look like the ps3 controller but at the end of the day isn't really fooling anyone who has held it in their hands. The analogue sticks feel like they might not last as long as they should.Getting the ps3 to recognize the controller is proving to be a task,and with no real company website to go to for official help its very touch and go. Doesn't seem to have the notion sensors that stock ps3 dualshock 3 have.(unless im doing something wrong and haven't found out how to activate them?
Flipkart delivered it within 48 hrs of placing order :)
it may not be as good as the one u get with the PS3 bt it does the job...havent been able to spot the difference between then however...i do recommend it...cheap and good...the vibrations are good and so is the handling..to be honest couldnt feel the difference...and the price is so affordable...go for it if u r short of money..
Actually the delivery part of this product was perfect. Got it in 2 days n all that. Whats astonishing is that the design of this product is exact rip off from original controller! and everythin works fine too! nothing to complain bout other than the Left analog controller being a bit rough which is totally playable and not all tat bad at all. The controller scan from PS3 base also is not an issue although I read it to be of some prob. None for me. Over all this, See the pricing, makes it all worth it. In-built Battery sure help a lot :)
All in all - If budget is ur prob n still wanna buy... (Expand)

Festival of Altars, 6-11pm, Garfield Park, 26th & Harrison Streets
We welcome you to make an altar for a loved one that has passed away. Making a Day of the Dead altar is a way for us to honor the life of someone who is no longer with us and to remember our ancestors. Eash year, hundreds of personal altars line the perimeter of Garfield Park.
All candles must be in GLASS containers, no open flame candles are allowed at the park.
We also ask you to bring a can of healthy unexpired food to the park. One of our commissioned altars is in honor of the thousands of deaths of homeless people in San Francsico each year. All food collected at the park will be donated to St. Anthony's Foundation in San Francisco.
November 2, 7pm, meet with community members, artists and activists including Francisco x. Alacaron, Starhawk and traditional Aztec dancers following the traditional 13 Standards and the various creatures large and small.
Ritual assembles at 22nd and Bryant 6-7:00 pm, on Sunday Nov. 2, 2014
STARTS at 22nd and Bryant at exactly 7 pm, & moves along Bryant to 24th St.
CONTINUES along 24th St. to the corner of 24th St. & Mission
CONTINUES along Mission St. to 22nd St and turns on 22nd St.
CONTINUES along 22nd St. to Bryant St.
CONCLUDES at the corner of 22nd & Bryant St.
Let's ensure that Day of the Dead SF remains a true community supported event. Please consider making a donation via our chip-in page. Every dollar counts and no donation is too small. All proceeds go to securing park permits and artistic expression at Garfield Park.
Dia de los Muertos is a traditional Meso-American holiday dedicated to the ancestors; it honors both death and the cycle of life. In Mexico, neighbors gather in local cemeteries to share food, music, and fun with their extended community, both living and departed. The celebration acknowledges that we still have a relationship with our ancestors and loved ones that have passed away.
In San Francisco, Day of the Dead has been celebrated in the Mission district since the early 70s with art, music, performances and a walking procession, which help us contemplate our existence and mortality -- a moment to remember deceased friends and family, and our connections beyond our immediate concerns.
Day of the Dead is an alcohol free event with no vendors or booths of any type. Please honor this tradition and do not attempt to sell goods on the premises of Garfield Park.

I've been working on a book of Pens photos from the last season+. While doing so, I was going through the collages that I had done for each player for the end of season wrap-up posts and I realized that I had only done one for Geno, which didn't really seem fair since I did 3 each for Sid, Staal, Fleury and Letang. Anyway, here are a couple more that I put together for Geno. .
For the fans of the Stanley Cup Champions...the Pittsburgh Penguins!!!
Sidney Crosby , Evgeni Malkin , Jordan Staal and The 2008-09 Pittsburgh Penquins on KayvonTV (NHL)
Evgeni Malkin talks about Russians playing the first role in the NHL, hopes that his partners will help him in winning the Art Ross, expails his rivalry with Alexander Ovechkin, and says that now it's his time to win the Art Ross.
Link roundup of current events surrounding the Pittsburgh Penguins and NHL.
...This comes from the blog Alex Ovetjkin, that does a lot of Russian to English translations. Don't miss Geno's line: "On this day, when they eat turkey, we had a team dinner." Haha
Cooking with Evgeni Malkin
The PIttsburgh Penguins continue their winning ways, beating the Los Angeles Kings 4-1 in Pittsburgh.
Malkin is no doubt deserving of consideration for the Hart Memorial Trophy. He is arguably the best player in the world right now. Malkin is trying to become the fourth Penguin to win the prestigious NHL award: Mario Lemieux (1988, '93, '96), Jaromir Jagr (1999) and Sidney Crosby (2007).

I read the article on Chinese medicine and feel it missed the mark. The Chinese (and Asians as a whole) use more than a few herbs to treat various medical conditions. Bear claws where the bear is slaughtered for its claws and feet. Rhino horn, shark fin, various testes, etc.
While a few herbs sounds harmless enough, folklore medicine should be condemned for what it does to animal populations the world over.
I would guess that the reason there weren't any jars of powdered yak gall bladder is that those items cannot be imported due to international and national laws against their importation.

In December of 2011, a series of arrests for gun possession charges in New York City raised a number of important—if perhaps unexpected—legal issues. A number of individuals with valid conceal/carry gun permits issued outside of the city had attempted to "check" their guns—whether at the Empire State Building lobby, the airport, or in one case the 9/11 memorial—and were arrested under the NYC gun law, which recognizes the validity of no outside permits, and carries with it a mandatory minimum sentence of three and a half years in state prison for possession of a loaded weapon. Many commentators have focused their ire on the specific nature of the New York City gun law itself, or have otherwise used the cases as a launching point for a discussion of the Second Amendment's requirements.
In the piece we posted today on Forbes.com, Daniel Schwartz and I discuss, instead, the dangerously diminishing importance of "intent" in the criminal law—the so-called mens rea requirement that an individual be aware that he is committing a crime before he can be found guilty. Combined with the existence of mandatory minimum sentences, this creates a toxic soup that invites a seemingly radical remedy: "jury nullification," or the controversial idea that juries have the power (even if not the clear right) to "nullify" unjust laws by voting for acquittal even when a person is, technically, in violation of the statute. Jury nullification, we argue, is essential in a free society that has gone off the rails in terms of prosecutorial abuse. While my book Three Felonies a Day: How the Feds Target the Innocent (updated paperback June 2011 from Encounter Books) details federal law injustices, Schwartz and I point out in this forbes.com piece that state legal systems are not entirely immune from similarly abusive tactics.

SWINDON TOWN: PDC's defensive Ade
6:00am Friday 16th March 2012 in Sport By Gary Rose
PAOLO Di Canio has decided against bringing in a defender on loan to Swindon before the transfer window shuts next week after being boosted by the return of Aden Flint to full fitness.
The former Alfreton skipper has not played for Town since the 1-0 win over Macclesfield on January 21 after suffering a groin injury.
Di Canio had feared Flint would miss the rest of the season and, with skipper Paul Caddis having also injured his ankle recently, the Town boss admitted last week that he planned to dip in the loan market and bring in a versatile defender as cover.
But Flint has surprised all with the rate of his recovery and has been training normally with the rest of his teammates for the last 10 days.
Consequently, Di Canio is not only confident the 22-year-old will be available for the Johnstone's Paint Trophy final against Chesterfield a week on Sunday, but hinted that he could also be included in the squad for the trip to Crewe tomorrow.
"Aden has recovered quickly and we are happy," said Di Canio.
"He is available, even for Saturday but whether he plays depends on me. I will make that decision.
"I don't think I need to bring anyone else in now. Flint is back and Paul Caddis is nearly fit again and so the main part of my transfer activity is done.
"Anything can happen but we do not have a plan to bring in other players."
Mehdi Kerrouche is back training with Swindon after returning from his loan spell at Oxford earlier this week, and Di Canio has not ruled out the striker having a part to play in the Robins' end of season run-in.
"He is back training with us and he will need to train hard," he added.
"It is obvious now that I have many players and it will be difficult for him to play. However, in football anything could be possible."

The Fargo Police Department and the State Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division is warning North Dakotans about another phishing scam. Several people are reporting getting a recorded phone call saying their account has been locked because of suspicious activity, and they should dial "1" for more information.
Some specifically name Gate City Bank, others claim it is a problem with your Visa or Master Card. If you stay on the phone, you will be asked to enter your credit card or bank account information.
This scam is another variation of the "phishing scams." It's designed to trick you into giving out the account or credit card information, but remember never to respond to messages like this, even if you think it's legitimate. Instead, call the customer service number printed on the back of your bank or credit card statement, and contact them directly to confirm suspicious activity.
The scam artists use random dialer equipment, which is why some people are reporting receiving these calls on their cell phones or on the phone numbers registered on the "do not call" list. The scam artists are located outside of North Dakota, which puts them beyond the reach of state and local law enforcement agencies.
One of the phone numbers being used is 830-504-8875, but Gate City Bank reports there are more being used. If you get called, do not respond with personal or financial information and report it right away to the following agencies:

ALBANY — The Albany State women's basketball team's conference tourney hopes are fading fast.
Paine College made sure of that Thursday.
The Lady Rams (8-16, 8-12) lost, 69-66, despite three players scoring in double figures: April Thomas and Symone Wilkerson (both with 15 points) and Breanna Fields (10).
The ASU men, meanwhile, kept their hopes of making the field in less than two weeks alive with a 91-79 win against Paine.
Jaren Harris (26 points), Rachard Lofton (16), Joshua Alford (16) and Marcus Benitez (11) led the way for the Rams (11-13, 10-13)
Both teams play their regular-season home finales Saturday against Claflin.
Darton women crush Chattahoochee Tech, 68-41; SGT women roll again, now one win from first perfect region season ever
ALBANY — The Darton College women's basketball team stomped Chattahoochee Tech on Thursday night, 68-41, thanks to one heck of a game by leading scorer Michelle Mitchell.
Mitchell, a freshman from Eastman, pulled down a season- and career-high 23 rebounds, and also scored 23 points to lead the Lady Cavs (18-7 overall, 12-4 in Region XVII) to a win that keeps them tied for second place with Middle Georgia and Georgia Perimeter in the conference heading into Saturday's regular-season finale at Albany Tech.
Chanteniece Fann added eight points and 13 rebounds in the win, which secured Darton — at the very least — a first-round region tournament game at home when it begins next week.
SOUTH GEORGIA TECH WOMEN 71, ATLANTA METRO 42: The Lady Jets (23-8 overall, 17-0 in Region XVII) won easily Thursday night and now are within one victory Saturday in their regular-season finale at home against Middle Georgia from the first perfect region season in the program's eight-year history.
Shontae McCall led SGT with 17 points, 12 rebounds seven assists and four steals. Manon Cherubini added 12 points and nine assists, and Krysta Wood had 11 points and eight rebounds.

Neb. sees hottest, driest year on record
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) _ A national report says Nebraska was one of two states that experienced its hottest and driest year on record in 2012.
The Omaha World-Herald reports the State of the Climate Report released Tuesday shows Nebraska and Wyoming broke their state records
last year.
The National Climatic Data Center's report shows the average annual U.S. temperature was 55.32 degrees Fahrenheit. That's a full degree Fahrenheit warmer than the old 1998 record.
Iowa saw its second warmest year on record. It also had its 11th driest year.
U.S. temperature records go back to 1895. The yearly average is based on reports from more than 1,200 weather stations across the Lower 48 states.

The Perry Hall Royal Farms opened on Dec. 21, but its official ribbon cutting is planned for Tuesday, Jan. 8.
Inside the store at 9620 Belair Rd., free coffee and soft drinks will be served before the 10 a.m. ceremony. Company president John Kemp will then lead a ribbon cutting, followed by donations to community organizations, Royal Farms announced.
Free samples of chicken, wraps and other foods will follow at around 10:20 a.m., according to the company.
Area residents and members of the business community are invited to attend.
The 5,000-square-foot store broke ground in July 2012 and features eight fuel pumps. It took the place of a former BP gas station.
Following the December opening, some community members complained that another convenience store and gas station was not needed in the area. Others said they hoped it would bring more competition to gas prices.
Since its opening, the price of regular gas per gallon at the Royal Farms has risen from $3.19 to $3.35.

Like a magician our mind tricks us into believing what we see and feel. We only notice that something strange is going on when our expectations are betrayed during the prestige – when the white rabbit is drawn out of the empty hat. Psychology sometimes works in much the same way. After the mind has made us believe in the ordinary, it creates strange cases which point to something bigger going on behind the scenes. One of the most extraordinary illusions is the one of our body. At the final pre........ Read more »

An illness is an illness wherever you are. Perhaps this is true for organic diseases but the cultural background can play a tremendous role in the progression and even diagnosis of mental disorders. However, what has been neglected is an appreciation of how culture affects the research underlying the diagnosis and treatment of psychological disorders. As a consequence, our view on the disorder can change.... Read more »

Intuitively, the use of police dogs as drug detectors makes sense. Dogs are known to have a better sense of smell than their human handlers. Furthermore, they cooperate easily. Still, compared to the generally good picture sniffer dogs have in the public eye, their performance as drug detectors in real life is terrible. The reason why scent dogs get used anyway holds important lessons for behavioural researchers working with animals or humans.... Read more »

Risk taking is somewhat enigmatic. On the one hand, risky choices in every day life – like drug abuse or drink driving – peak in adolescence. Never again in life is the threat to die from easily preventable causes as great. On the other hand, in laboratory experiments this risky choice peak in adolescence is absent. Instead, the readiness to take a gamble simply goes down the older you are. How can we explain this paradox? Perhaps, we should look at a tribe in the Amazon rain forest for answ........ Read more »

Audiofly 45 Series Headset with Microphone, Extra Virgin
"Build & Design: Great. Audiofly chose to use very good materials for the AF45. They're available in four colors: Black, White and Black, Green Olive, and Brown.

Duke of Lancs parade planned for Accrington
12:00pm Saturday 31st May 2014 in News
PREPARATIONS are underway for a parade through the streets of Accrington to commemorate the start of the First World War.
On Tuesday, July 1, 120 soldiers from the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment will march through the town to exercise their freedom of the borough.
Colonel Chris Owen said: "It is a tremendous honour for the Regiment and its soldiers to exercise the freedom of Hyndburn, and it is fitting that we will do so in the home town of the Accrington Pals on the anniversary of their great sacrifice.
"Parades such as this give us an opportunity to publicly express our gratitude to the communities our soldiers come from.
"We very much look forward to July 1 and to thanking the people of Hyndburn for their long-standing and continued support."
Hyndburn Council leader Miles Parkinson said: "The history of the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment is linked with the Accrington Pals, so it is fitting that they have chosen this the centenary year of the outbreak of the First World War to exercise their freedom of the borough.
"Everyone is invited and warmly welcomed to come along and see the parade, which will give us all the opportunity to show our appreciation for the regiment's gallant and courageous service."
The time of the march, and the route, is set to be announced on Monday, June 16.
The Freedom Parade is part of a programme of activities running from 2014 to 2018 in Hyndburn to coincide with the programme of national commemorations of the First World War.
Before heading off to the front line, where they suffered huge losses in the Battle of the Somme, the Pals marched through Accrington to cheers from residents.

As ever with soldiers, there's a lot of moaning about training, marching, idleness, the food, the weather, the conditions and the many other things that soldiers love to moan about. (On one march, they got lost! The fault of the Ruperts - 'who couldn't find their backsides, if they were sat on their hands' - so no change there then.)
You have to admire that regiment, for being able to form in a few short weeks, with over 1100 volunteers. Then feel the great sadness, when news of their deaths reached the towns, where hardly a street was left unaffected, after over 800 of them died, on one morning, in an attack on the town of Serre (part of the Somme battles).

At a court martial in 2006-07, seven soldiers from 1QLR, including its former commanding officer, Colonel Jorge Mendonca, faced charges relating to the killing of Mr Mousa and to the other detainees. But the £20million trial ended with all being cleared apart from Corporal Payne. Total whitewash.
There's a book all about it called a very British Killing, perhaps I will sell it at the parade

Fischer Country Crown

I rented these at REI my first year cross-country…
I rented these at REI my first year cross-country skiing and was surprised at how well they handled! I ski a mix of XC ski centers and state parks. I used these at a ski touring center and found them to be pretty decent gliding, and they also did surprisingly well off-track in deeper snow.
In-track I found them to be very fast and off-track in deeper powder (8") they floated well due to their flexible tips. They did get a little squirrely on icier sections of walking and snowmobile paths, but overall not a bad backcountry ski.
Where to Buy

Jamming At Aljunied Crescent - Singapore
Dear Friends, Kickers & Kickick dancers,
We had a wonderful & meaningful Line Dance Party @ Aljunied Crescent in Singapore. I would like to thank Mr. Walter and friends who organised and invited us to their party.
The party started at 2pm but we reached there around 6:30pm due to unforeseen circumstances. Walter and friends welcomed us with 40 roses and souvenirs but we just went there empty-handed :) " Pai seh la". During the jamming, they allowed us to request 7 songs and extended the party until 10pm.
Once again.... Thank you Walter and friends for everything YOU DID FOR US...... We hope that we can meet again in the future.......
