Oct 9, 2012Absolutely amazing game; the best in years. Signed up to Metacritic just to say that.
Oct 14, 2012Second review, after playing the game for a while. My score for it hasn't changed, still 10/10. People have complained about the length but achievements wise, you have to replay the game many times, and u get to study each map so for me the length is perfect. The story, yes it isn't the greatest or most dramatic but honestly that's not why we play this game. Graphics on the 360 leaves much to be desired but it didn't bother me at all. It looks better on PC, which is puzzling. The reason we play this game is for the gameplay and concept and both of those have been implemented Brilliantly. The abilities are all significant and unique, the maps all have multiple paths that u learn about each time u play. For the intrigued you have the ability to be creative. Don't put this game down for not being an open world rpg. That's not what it is it's not assassins creed. It's dishonored and it's a brilliant game.… Expand
Oct 13, 2012This game, while having some genuinely interesting points, kind of disappointed me. It just didn't live up to it's potential. First, the good stuff. This game has a pretty interesting steampunk setting, the gameplay concept itself is really interesting and decently executed, and the way they've given you the ability to finish the game without killing a single person (if you so choose) is genuinely interesting. Unfortunately, on the Xbox 360 version at least, the graphics are pretty shoddy (probably due to the poor/non-existent anti-aliasing), and it's very distracting when the scenery has clipping artifacts when you look side to side. In addition to the poor graphics, this game is really short. I've done a few playthroughs, and it ranges from a low of 5ish hours for a "killing whatever and ignoring the optional objectives on easy" run to around 20ish hours for me to run the entire game on the hardest difficulty, finish all of the optional objectives, and collect all of the runes and bone charms. On top of all of this, the storyline really is just not very compelling. The game feels like way more thought went into the setting and lore than went into the actual events and dialogue that you're playing through. In summary, Dishonored is a game that has an interesting setting and some really neat gameplay options, but it's let down by graphical problems, story length, and some poor writing. In my honest opinion, if they would have made this game an open-world RPG, thrown more content into it, and given you a few more options as far as abilities and customization goes, this game could have been great. Such as shame, really.… Expand
Oct 13, 2012It is a rare sight in this day and age to have a game that gives the decision making to the player. If you are an action nut and killing everything in your path is your style Dishonored lets you do it, if you are a stealthy assassin who's goals are to inflict little to no casualties, Dishonored lets you do it. I have only had my hands on Dishonored for a few hours but in that time I see how well Arkane Studios has done with this game. The control are solid, the stealth system has only a few flaws to mar an almost perfect system, and the action is intense. Dishonored is definitely a sleeper hit for this year and is going to be the game that will be given credit for Arkane Studios success with future games. The only small issue I have with the game is the graphical design the developers took. Looking back on trailers and reading article about the game it gave off a vibe of gritty and dark that would benefit from a very realistic graphical approach, unfortunately it comes up short in these aspects, the graphics mimic more of a Bioshock look and some of the colors in game are too bright and eye catching for a game based in a town plagued by corruption and a plague. Overall the game is not something that most people should pass up on, and I can't wait to see the work that Arkane Studios will be putting out form here on out.… Expand
Oct 10, 2012Ok, I'll be the one to point out that the Emperor is wearing an extremely unflattering Speedo.
It's merely published by Bethesda (developed by Arkane), so it thankfully lacks the zoo of bugs usually associated with their titles, but there are many things about the game that rub the wrong way. The setting of the game is a wild pastiche of ideas that feel scattered but do show glimmers on originality and potential. Trouble is, the game doles out information in a decidedly non-engrossing fashion and the first hour or so is just an on-the-rails game of hit-all-the-steampunk/fantasy-setting-tropes. The TF2, exaggerated art style is cool, but I can't help but feel that a more realistic look would benefit an urban game of gritty, moralistic conflicts. The stealth (like most FPS that try to incorporate it) can be fairly hit-or-miss and though you can blast your way through from hell to a whalemeat breakfast, the game suggests fairly heavily that the most virtuous path through it is a non-violent one. Not to mention that more than 3/4 of the unlockable powers are all used for killing or facilitating killing, meaning that you're going to waste a lot of runes if you want to go the no-kill route. The combat is simplistic but can be punishing early on and there are a few cool synergies between your powers and your weapons, but good luck to you if you think the game is going to prompt you much in that regard. There is a definite emphasis on "choose-your-own-path" at work but the narrative (and the assassinations involved in it) is broken down into discreet levels and you are graded and given the option to replay each one upon completion, so say goodbye to a fully immersive, open world experience. In a nutshell, the game is best described as a "steampunk Deus Ex" and yes, that would be Square Enix's recent "re-imagining" of Deus Ex, with all the connotations that entails. It's a competent action game with an interesting backdrop, but nothing that you'll be talking about 6 months from now.… Expand
Oct 9, 2012This is the game we all wanted an unique game with great art style graphic great AI and the best of all unique gameplay you can play like you want if you want sneaky you can you want action/FPS you can and thats why this game rules and probably win some game of the year award becaouse like CVG said its the best game in this generation.A perfect 10 from me.
P.S Sorry for bad english im in a hurry
Oct 14, 2012I would have expect more than 5.5hrs for my $60. Game mechanics, multiple paths work well. AI can spot you even behind cover making the stealth runs very frustrating at times, and the graphics are awful. When you see trailers, tv spots for this game, the screens are not representative of in game. rent don't buy.
Oct 15, 2012Im going to be painfully honest here this game is just Meh,it is absolutely nothing special;If it were released any other part of the year it would have been insulted and ignored like the painful mass of mediocrity it is.But sadly it was released in a gaming drought so all the short sided kiddies swarm it and praise it like crazy when there's truly no redeeming factors about the generic mess.
Nov 3, 2012This game was so hyped. I was hyped for it too. It was an epic fail. The story was horrible. The character you play never speaks in the cut scenes. You never see his face. I could not get connected with the character or the story. The controls were decent but graphics were sub par. Just a game I was really hoping to like but towards the end of the game, I just wanted to beat it and move on. Wait for it to hit the bargain bin then give it a go.… Expand
Oct 28, 20125 reasons why Dishonored fails to meet expectations: 1. Bait & Switch; In the initial launch trailer, Corvo Attena (sic) is revealed as fallen icon of a dis-topian alt. universe who is granted supernatural powers by a mysterious zealot with a personal vendetta to those in power. The entire tone of this trailer suggests that Corvo is some sort of agent of darkness, beyond any rule of law. This brings with it the idea that although you may be part of the whale-infused non-Victorian world you inhabit, the character has his own motivations for killing these people; a grander purpose severing a darker master. Not only is Corvo a silent character, but also not the supernatural wraith we thought. His motivations are driven by in-fighting generals and politicians who stop the game's progression after every mission to 'request' another takedown of some dubious individual. And the mysterious figure whom you are supposed to be servings is display in a series of hallucinations and dream sequences which are completely separate from the games main narrative. 2. The skill trampoline; Within most … Expand
Oct 9, 2012Best game since Half-Life 2 came out. The story is amazing, the stealth gameplay is second-to-none, and the tension and atmosphere are top notch. Highly recommended.
Nov 27, 2012I remember seeing pictures of dishonored in an issue of game informer in 2010 and then reading an article about it in 2011. I remember being very interested in the game. I also remember feeling let down that I couldn't purchase it when it was released and how envious I was at the people on my friends list that were playing it and raving about how great it was. Fast forward 2 months later. I borrowed it from a friend and lets just say that I am very happy that I didn't purchase this game. Yeah, the graphics are cool and the combat is kind of fun, but other than that there is nothing special about this game. It feels like I've played this game a million times. The plot is basic. The characters are one dimensional and the fact that the developers try to force emotion on you is annoying. The whole game is one step up above generic. Is this the worst game I ever played? No, far from it, but does it deserve the high praise it's received since it's release? Not really. The whole entire experience so far has been a pretty ho hum, single player fps by the numbers. This is one where you'll forgot you've ever played it a month or two down the road.… Expand
Dec 29, 2012Overhyped and overrated, this game is not near as good as I expected. A number of issues include a weak story, repetitive gameplay, abysmal graphics, and rushed stages.
Oct 9, 2012Wow. Breath of fresh air. Amazing game, and something NEW for once! Must buy for anyone that is on the fence... it has depth, and some of the most unique gameplay I've ever experienced.
Oct 9, 2012While it has a few quirks here and there, Dishonored delivers on almost every admirably/crazily ambitious promise made by its creators. Its impeccably crafted gameplay and exquisitely haunting and detailed world stand in loving tribute to all of the iconic and acclaimed franchises that inspired it, and yet it still has a soul and style all its own.
Oct 9, 2012Honestly I am never usually a fan of these type of games, not many games let you choose between stealth and action but this game does. I have played all new releases and lately I have been wondering if the gaming industry can offer something that is different (a change of pace, if you will). Dishonored delivers and though the achievements are a bit 50/50 (for me, because I'm picky on when to use stealth). the game itself is absolutely great. Cannot find a fault with it. I signed up just to recommend it, be open minded when picking it up and you will be impressed. 9/10 (only taking the 1 away for achievements, but it's each to their own, if you are used to being stealthy then it won't be a problem, but I was never a fan of that type of game and this is really the first I've played since Splinter Cell).… Expand
Oct 9, 2012WOW, all I have to say is that I've never played a game that feels so unique and right at the same time. They perfected it to the point where they want you to feel exactly like they intended it to be; putting you in a situation where anything is nearly possible and you get to do it your own way. The environments in this game could be the greatest thing I've ever seen in gaming. I'm not talking about textures and graphics, but pure detail, to the point where a suit a man is wearing or a room looks like it belongs in a painting. I fell in love with this game 15 minutes after I played it, and that I can't say for many other games I've played. I want to congratulate Arkane Studios for developing such a badass **** game!!!… Expand
Nov 6, 2012Pretty much open-world, a big plus for any adventurous kind of gamer. A story that is both personal and political, with a dark twist ending that will leave you wrenching and praying for a sequel.
Oct 11, 2012WOW!! Ok i'm not finished with the game, only about half way through. First if your a Half-life or portal fan you are going to love this. It has the art and some of the look to Half-life but set in a steam punk world. Additionally yes you can go toe to toe with the bad guys but at a world changing cost. I've been opting for a more pacifictic approach in knocking out or tranking my foe's & not getting busted, or just plane avoidence. This is very difficult but rewarding as you must "Blink" from location to location and not get busted. The whole of the maps are very "puzzle" like and in combination with npc movements require you to truely think and plan your course of action. Stratigy really is the common in this game. Additionally the magic really gives a unique flavor to the experince as it's very different from say Skyrim or Dragonage. It's all ment to be combined and tactical. Magic is also very smooth, not at all sticky. The story so far is fairly compelling although somewhat a "been-there" plot but not enough to be boring. The tech in the game seems to be a mix of Fallout meets Batman, meets the 1790's, which for me is all very cool. Appairently you can go through the whole of the game without killing anyone which is very difficult. I would truely recomend this for anyone who wants a very grim, creepy, Batman/Half-life kind of experience. I think this is going to be a ground-breaking game. Very unique and out of the box thinking went into this. Additionally (not that it really makes a difference) some great voice talents in the game. Also if your an Eldar scrolls player or fallout, get your loot searching into gear. Scaviging is a must. This is a great experience!!… Expand
Oct 10, 2012We have all established that Bethesda are well known for unique games that are worth playing. Dishonored is Bethesda's latest game at a new innovative game. And thankfully they have succeeded. Dishonored smart advertising and unique nature hooked us in the game so our expectations were high. The best feature of the game is the sort of Deus Ex feel to it in the means of gameplay. Each mission of the game is a sort of open land were you get to decide what tactics you will take. There are to main ways to play or stealthily or a more kill everyone approach. What is interesting is that there are many ways to play with either option. Interesting enough the outcome of the game drastically changes with each play style so multiple playthroughs are needed to experience the full package. The environments also change according to play style. if you kill everyone there will be more flies and rats than taking the stealth approach. Both play styles are fun but I prefer the stealth approach as I find that there are more options and spells suited for this play style. Another thing I adore about this game is the art syle. It is very interesting, it is cartoon like but is dark which makes the game have an edge. The graphics themselves are not that good but this does not detract from anything. The game is not hard, so not much skill is needed to beat it but it is very rewarding. A problem I found with the game is that the many ways to beat the game can allow you to skip specific areas way too easily but this is not much of a problem. The powers in the game are all very fun and most importantly very useful. These spells are so much fun to wield and as you will see you will use them a lot in the game. The sound in the game is also very good and with ok voice acting. A thing I did not like in the game is the story. The story I found is not that strong, the world is so dark and violent that I really expected to be blown away with the story and I got a very good solid story. Although some characters are really well written and they are really interesting. A think I also really like are the badass enemies and deaths. The enemies are especially cool looking and you can clearly see the work put into them. The game is not that long it took me 18 hours but everyone who plays this game will definitely play this game multiple times so the $60 are worth it for this game. This game really reminds me of Batman Arkham Asylum and it really is a good game. I really enjoyed this game it is unique and i'm sure that many people will enjoy this game. It has a impressive art style fun characters and in my opinion the small flaws diminished by all this games interesting features. It has the most fun gameplay since Dark Souls and nearly as rewarding. You really need to play this game its worth all your hard earned cash. The reason I am not giving this game a 10 is because its amazing but not a masterpiece but this franchise has the potential for glory. Buy this game it's gameplay is sooo much fun it's not difficult to get hooked in this game!… Expand
Oct 11, 2012When was the last time you played a video game that just let you have fun the way you want to have fun? Dishonored bucks all the trends of an age of games that is dominated by linear shooters and online multiplayer as the only means of achieving any replay value. This is a sandbox assassination game where you can kill everyone - or indeed no-one in a variety of ways. Most players, like myself, will probably strive for a balance of the two, blending the games' sublime stealth system with a combat model that holds up equally as well. This is a game that responds to how you want to play it and that is indeed a rare thing from games of today. Buy this without hesitation now. You will not be disappointed.… Expand
Oct 10, 2012I could not put this game down. The levels are interesting, the powers are fun, and the story line is enjoyable. If you played batman arkhamill asylum or city and like the dectective mode and stealth fighting, you will love this game.
Nov 29, 2012This game is not bad but it is not good either. The writing and the acting is atrocious despite some of the voice actors being famous stars. All the dialogue over explains what is already apparent. This is no Bioshock. There is no atmosphere whatsoever and quite frankly I couldn't wait to get it over with. I finished the game hoping it would pay off at some point but it was just trite and predictable. The game play had some good ideas and that is where the game redeems itself somewhat but not enough to make me want to replay it. Also I found all the paintings and the achievement did not unlock. I did not have fun playing this game and do not recommend you buy it, borrow it from a friend if you must play it but I suspect you will be disappointed.… Expand
Oct 10, 2012Absolutely fantastic, nothing bad to say about this game. The rpg elements dont hold back the combat, or vise versa. The characters and lore are well thought out, but dont force you to read everything. If you want to just play, that is possible, or if you want a more immersive time, that's possible too.
Oct 11, 2012Replaying through this game is a must. Even within the first level I noticed pathways/things that I completely missed the first time through. So great to see what happens when a company puts so much emphasis on a single player game nowadays. Instead of making a sub-par co-op mode or something they have made the most fun single player experience I have played this year....easily.
Oct 11, 2012One of the most creative, original and engaging games that I have played in a very long time. I love having the power to choose what path I take and how to handle the various enemies along the way. You should definitely go buy this game immediately if you are a fan of stealth games (or just good video games in general). Easily the best game I have played this year.
Oct 10, 2012You can really tell this is an effort from people who were involved with the original Deus Ex and Thief games, and City 17's visual designer. It's the perfect combo; an old school stealth action game with lots of room to explore and get distracted. The universe, characters, environments, and story are all immediately engrossing; one of those rare moments when a new game franchise feels like it's already matured. I won't spoil any more. Give it a whirl.… Expand
Oct 18, 2012The most problem is that story ends when you want more! Amazing game with unique atmosphere and incredible gameplay. Reminded me Thief series much, and I'm thankful for that.
Oct 11, 2012Brilliant game with multiple paths to completing various missions. If you enjoyed games like Deus Ex: HR with it's mission based structure, you'll really like this game. Although it isn't a truly open world game (it may have benefited from this, who knows), it does have a similar feel. The soft RPG elements, and wonderful artistic style give it a very unique feel compared to other games of this generation.
It isn't an entirely flawless game, there a few tiny hitches here and there like being unable to take out lights in certain areas, but as a launch game and the first in the series, you can bet it will only get better in future endeavours. I've given it a 10 for the incredible effort the devs have put into the game and it is really evident.… Expand
Oct 20, 2012I am here really to only make one thing perfectly clear. This game is NOT short. If you finish this game in 7 hours then you didnt play the game, you RUSHED the game, skipped entirely sequences and quests and went straight for the finish. I spent a health 40 hours in the game so far, but that is because i AM exploring, i AM being stealthy, i AM looking at the scenery. This isnt a race to see who can finish the game first. It's short because people are doing speedruns in 4 hours. /rolleyes.… Expand
Nov 14, 2012Precise and elegant systemic design engenders an absurd degree of player agency, but is marred somewhat by a sloppy, unconvincing narrative and soulless characters. [Dec 2012]
Oct 31, 2012What is there is so compelling that the lack of additional stages can't help but feel like a disappointment. The game's strengths are a double-edged sword. Regardless, this is still one of the best games of this year. With a bit of work, a potential sequel could be one of the best games of any year.
Oct 26, 2012Dishonored is never able complete that transformation from a game into a totally new and exciting world to inhabit. To be sure, our mostly positive rating reflects that this game is well-structured with all the pieces you'd expect and story flexibility will offer up a unique adventure for every player. It's a promising and mostly enjoyable start to what will perhaps be an ongoing series, but it lacks the emotional punch that could make it great.

This is Me, BeggingIf I could play guitarI'd write you a song.If I could run that farThen I'd run all night long.But I'm no good at thatSo you'll have to settle for this.What is this?It's a pleaA begFor youFrom mePlease come homeI'm all aloneAnd nobody understands.I don't want you to R.I.P.I want you here with meBut I'm not GodAnd He hates meSo, for now,I guess it's R.I.P.
What You WantMaybe you want them to noticeMaybe you want them to seeMaybe you want them to care aboutHow you're lost and lonely me.Maybe you want them to askMaybe you want them to knowMaybe you want them to care aboutHow your happiness is a show.Maybe you want them to quietMaybe you want them to listenMaybe you want them to care aboutHow your blood does glisten.Maybe you want them to leave youMaybe you want them to dieMaybe you want them to care aboutHow your life's just a lie.
Carry OnI like sharp things;The way they shineThe way they hurtThe way they leave a red line.I like to bleed;The way it's redThey way it hurtsThe way it washes out what they said.I like to live;The way it's wrongThe way it hurtsThe way it tells me that I am strong.
I Am AddictionI'm past it,Don't need it,Don't want it,But what am I without it?It's still part of me,Tattooed for all to see;Little lines of pain,Worming into my brain.My only friend,Will be my sweet end.I need definition,What makes me myself?I want to be put on a shelf;Just define me by my actions,My scars, my abstractions.Show me who I am,Who you want me to be,Hate me,Love me,Save me,Kill me;Make meMe.My old comfort,My old joy,Red itching scratch,And the sentiment I attach,Dragging me downAnd making me fly; Making me laughAnd making me cry.Is it addiction?Is it compulsion?Is it wrong?I know it's not right,But if I ended it tonight,Would it really matter?I'll never be past it,Always need it,Always want it,Because what am I without it?
We Are/You Aren'tWe are the unwanted, the brokenThe ones you forgot about.So don't be too surprised when weStart to scream and shout.We are the living, the dyingThe ones you all put down.But you'll know who we are when weRun this goddamn town.We are the corpses, the maggotsThe ones you all despise.But you'll be the ones scared when weExpose all your lies.We are the hunted, the lostThe ones you all spurn.But you'll cry for our help when weLeave you all to burn.We are the losers, the winnersThe ones that you deny.But you'll be the ones damned when weHear the angels cry.
Life ItselfThe only time I smiled todayWas when I thought of dyingAnd how good I am at lyingEach and every single day.I've got a box of painkillersThey sleep right by my bedFor when all I see is red,They'll numb it into darkest white.I've tried talking to people,But I can't word what I want to sayAnd maybe I like living this way,Knowing that I'll die soon.I know I'm self-destructiveMy crosshatch skin screams itBut inside there's a little bitThat still aches to be saved.I've tried before and I'll try againTo put my worthlessness awayBut fate forced me to stay;Death's a bitch like that.Life makes me want to dieYet it won't let me leaveOr grant me a reprieveFrom that which it's made me hate;Life itself.
Venting in RedNow that I have the meansI know I could do it.Because right nowI don't want to pull through it.I don't have many friends,And all things have ends.A bloody blade will be mine,Slicing me open one final time.I only ever take,I'll take my lifeFor everyone's sake;My one selfless act.I want to see silver,Splattered with red.I want to cease breathing;I just want to be dead.
I Would(n't)If I could kill you I wouldn't,Because the absence of you,Would kill me too;Kill me twice as dead as I am.If I could run away I wouldn't,Because I'd be out all alone,My heart on loan;I'd go insane thinking of you.If I could tell you I wouldn't,Because it just can't ever be,That you'd like me;Zombies just don't get love.If I could make you mine I wouldn't,Because I'm just your friend,Here to the end;This agony keeping me alive.If I could make you happy I would,Because I love your true smile,Makes living worthwhile;The thought that it could maybe be for me.
I Am Not ThemI've got the scars on my skin,Reminding what I've done,Who I've been;Never letting me forgetEverything that I regretAnd making sure I knowThat I am not Them.When the moon is way up high,And the world is in a dream,I will cryFor all of the deathWithin my breathWhispering into my earThat I am not Them.They make me Their shallow joke,The things They say and do,Making me choke;World wants me deadI'm sick in the headAll because of the factThat I am not Them.If I could transform myself,Make me rich in beauty,'Cos that's their wealthI'd rather just dieI want to remain IProud of all I am andThat I am not Them.I think I pity all of the liars,The way They act likeSirs and sires.They aren't truly aliveJust a drone in a hiveMaking me thankfulThat I am not Them.
Insanity.Running up and down the halls,Never looking back but never looking forward.Screaming, crawling, clawing,The worst case they have seen yet.The voices in my head,The writing on the wall.It's enough to make you scream,It's enough to make you weep.Crawling on the walls,Scribbling blood on the floor.Spelling out the voices in your head,Insane, you're all Insane.Come and join this fun filled house,We welcome you and your guests.The sane are not welcome,But the insane, well....you're already dead.
Fake Smile's.A smile is a sign that someone is happy,no one ever thinks otherwise.Sometime's a frown forms on peoples lips,but when your hiding something.You smile to hide the frown,With out the smile your open to the world.All your pain and misery,And you dont want that.After time the smile is an enemy,And a war with yourself starts.A side of sadness and a side of happiness,Sadness is winning.Time has caused to many painfull memories,And the happy one's to fade.The clock is ticking,It's a bomb that could explode any minuet.Tick, tock, tick, tock,Something snaps within you.Your screaming and scratching yourself,Yelling at yourself in a mirror.The word's of which your parents used,Your using them now.The sadness has won and you smash the glass to pieces,Falling to the floor, blood all around you.You finally smile with happiness,realising this is the end.And your acctualy happy,The smile is not fake, but it's real.
Winter BluesA blanket fallen from the cloudsCovers the land as snow falls down,So white, white as a wedding gown,White, white as the burial shrouds.The firs wear coats made of snow,The solemn silence like mist soarsTo mountain tops from valley floors,Silence of graves does follow.Lonely cart tracks slowly fade,Now they only lead to nowhere,Their origin is no longer there,Soon they are but a white shadeA blanket fallen from the skyCovers the peaceful land belowWith the innocently white snowComes the cold that lets us die.
Cutter's RulesI thought the words I wrote down,Had me on the mend,But like all good things,This too must end.It's time this suicidal poet,Swapped her pen for her blade,After all the cutter's rules,Must always be obeyed.So now I'll say a fond farewell,A sad so-long and sweet goodbye,And know that as I leave you all,It's crimson tears I cry.What can I say my friends?Thanks so much - it's been a blast!As I lift this cold dead metal,And take this sorry life at last.
I tryI try to be a good friendI try to be a good kidI try to be a good girlfriendI try to be a good studentI try to be a good girlI try... I really do but I mess upI mess everything up...I hurt herI hurt my familyI hurt my friends...I can't do this anymoreI don't want to hurt youI don't want you to hurtI want want you to leave meI am sorry...

We kill angelsWe take the kindness for granted whenWe think that we deserve it but thenThe angel we owe this to falls finallyWe wonder aloud and we wonder whyAnd over the angel we broke we cryStill we can't see we caused it initiallyIt's too easy to make angels fallWhile wond'ring "Where are the angels all?"It's so easy to push them over the edgeBy demanding and taking it all, yetWe never give, never repay the debtTell me, what excuse do we have to allege?Oh, leeches we are, vampires feedingOn angels' hearts, don't see they're needingKind words once in a while, arms to hold them, tooWhy do we not tell them they are preciousInstead we're treating them so malicious-ly, We kill angels, we're hell and them is woe
Warm Me"The world is big and I am small,I am short and the world is tall.The world is cruel and I am hurt,The world is cold and full of dirt."The melody of a children's songEchoed through the empty floorWhen the shadow of a former selfMarched towards that certain door.Behind that door there was a short shelf,Drawers unlocked by a keyAgile fingers had stolen before.The lighter was found with glee."The world is big and I am small,The world is too deaf for my call.The world is cruel and turned away,The world is cold and has to pay!"Like ice the darkened walls did glistenOn the floor there was a lake.The last canister soon was emptyAnd the pale hand did not shake.With a soft hiss the flame's brought to life.It stretched and began to dance.A hand tried touching it tenderlyStaring eyes entered a trance."The world is big and I was small,It never did love me at all.But with you the tables will turn!But with you my friend, it will burn!"

f*cked in greenpoint on 07/11/2011
I had been unable to sleep for a few nights due to bites and itching which I thought was a mosquito. It turned out to be bed bugs, I saw a few of them one night on my mattress.
I had an inspector come over and he said my building was infested, and that treating my apartment alone was useless. I was told they are inside the walls and coming up in the floor boards. I have also learned that bed bugs have been in other units in building over the years. The landlord, a woman named Mira refuses
to do anything.
I was told by the inspector, due to how bad my building was infested, I should throw away all furniture and belongings and start fresh.
I'm now crashing at my girlfriends apartment and no longer have any belongings.
No nearby bug reports

Best places for families to live? Not in the Bay Area, according to ZipRealty
Good schools are a corner stone of property values. With today's technology, parents can search not only school ratings but also how close they are to the type of homes these families want to buy and can afford. This last qualification–affordability–is likely the main reason no Bay Area city made ZipRealty's second annual "Best Places […] [Read More]

Since rejoining the UFC in 2011, Welterweight Nick Diaz has gone a disappointing 1-2 after three fights inside the Octagon. However, his record doesn't tell the whole story as Diaz has faced off against some of the best the promotion has to offer. He outworked former two-division champ B.J. Penn in his re-debut, followed that up with a controversial decision loss to Carlos Condit for the interim title, and most recently got dominated by former 170 lb. king Georges St. Pierre for a unanimous decision loss.
Despite being on a back-to-back losing streak, Diaz remains one of the UFC's biggest personalities. He pushed GSP to his biggest solo buyrate at UFC 158. Recently he has said that, while he doesn't enjoy the fight game, he's willing to continue his MMA career for the right price. This weekend he told Loretta Hunt of Sports Illustrated that he's eyeing a return to the Octagon in the relatively near future:
Ran into Nick Diaz last nite at Glory. Good mood. Said he hoped to be fighting again by new year; trying to work out contracts now
— Loretta Hunt (@lorettahuntmma) June 22, 2014
There's been a lot of action at the top of the 170 lb division since Diaz's last appearance, so it's hard to say who he's likely to face by the end of the year. A rematch with Carlos Condit isn't impossible, if Condit is able to recover from his knee injury by that time. Hector Lombard is coming off a big win over Jake Shields and would make an interesting fight. Finally, I don't think many would object to a rematch against Robbie Lawler at this point either. Regardless, whenever Diaz returns, there's going to be plenty of interesting match ups for Joe Silva to consider.

Over the past month
several Lumberton citizens have fallen prey to various money scams and
Lumberton Police say many scams target the elderly.
"If it sounds too
good to be true it's definitely not true" says Guy Serrin with the
Lumberton Police Department. Quite a few folks in the community have been dooped
by various scams. "There has been several instances where people have
called over the phone and said that your name has come up in a drawing and say if
you send me x amount of dollars I'd be happy to make you a millionaire. "Most
recently the bank notified the police department they believed one of their
elderly customers was being scammed. The man had already sent $3,500 to a fraudulent
outfit. Officers showed up just in time to keep the man from sending another $4,000
to scammers."They do prey a lot on the elderly the senior citizens,"
Serrin says. Another recent scam is when folks receive what appears to be a
legitimate check in mail, then cash that check. Once the check is realized to
be fraudulent the victim who cashed the check is liable for the money and may
even go to jail. They would send like checks through the mail and say if you
send me x amount of dollars I'll send you this money, which it's all a
scam." Serrin says anytime anyone asks for money or personal information
over the phone it should be a red flag that you are being scammed. If you
receive money via a check through the mail that you're not expecting, it's a
scam. "Don't give any personal information on the telephone. Definitely
don't give your credit card or social security number."
If you feel you've fallen victim to a scam
please contact your local law enforcement.

"These are to request and require in the name of the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria all those who it may concern to allow the bearer to pass freely without let or hindrance and to afford him or her every assistance and protection of which he or she may stand in need." Adorned with such a beautifully worded presidential note, the Nigerian passport is presumably a very valuable booklet that is supposed to facilitate its holder's movement around the world with dignity and respect.
Also, ostensibly in order to ensure that only Nigerians enjoy the privilege of obtaining it, the passport has been enhanced with advanced security mechanisms and protection features making it an e-passport in its current improved booklet design, which make it technically superior to those of many countries around the world. However, Nigeria reportedly introduced it under pressure from some western countries, which had lamented the high rate of forgery of the old passport; hence they put pressure on Nigeria to switch to an e-passport with a view to checking such practices. Anyway, though the process of issuing it is still corruption-ridden, which enables many non-Nigerians obtain it; the Nigerian passport remains the most reliable national identity document for Nigerians both inside and outside the country.
Incidentally, a passport could be simple or advanced in features yet the worth of a country is greatly determined by the extent to which its passport is respected in different countries around the world. Consequently, as a holder of a Nigerian passport, one begins to realize how much Nigeria matters in the eyes of the world and indeed how much Nigerians are worth compared to other nationals around the world. This occurs the moment he plans to embark on a journey outside the country especially to a country that imposes some requirements in advance, e.g. visa for Nigerian passport holders.
Unfortunately, it is right from that point that he would begin to realize that, despite such presidential request and all such advanced technical features in a Nigeria passport, it is hardly if at all worth the papers it is made up of. The unfortunate irony is that, the Nigerian passport actually derives its value (if any) primarily from the number of foreign countries' visas in it and of course the value of the countries which issued the visas.
The ridiculously strict and sometimes impossible visa application requirements imposed by various countries on Nigerian passport holders, the period it takes in "visa processing", the validity period of the visa (if granted), the discriminatory scrutiny its holder goes through at foreign airports and the amount (if any) of recognition he gets from individuals and institutions in foreign countries, say it all about the actual worth of Nigerian passport, and by implication, its holder, as they also indicate how much disdain such countries have for Nigeria and Nigerians. Needless to say, these discriminatory practices frustrate legitimate pursuits and jeopardize lawful interests of many Nigerians wishing to travel for various reasons.
Though occasionally Nigerian authorities protest over such prejudiced treatment against Nigerian passport holders abroad, especially when they (i.e. Nigerian authorities) come under sustained criticism for their typical indifferent attitude towards such unjustified treatments. They have, however, never been serious enough to get such countries to comply accordingly. Instead the whole outcry simply dies down amid empty promises coated in diplomatic press releases while the status-quo continues.
Worse still, is while this unfortunate status-quo persists, it continues to take its toll on the attitudes of many Nigerian travelers, because as they endure it, its impacts continue to gradually but consistently undermine their natural self-esteem and infect them with the sense of inferiority. Many Nigerians abroad unconsciously and spontaneously display this feeling, hence they indirectly contribute to the way they are unjustifiably suspected, harassed and even persecuted.
Meanwhile, the brazen indifference shown by Nigerian officials towards this situation could be attributed to –among other things- the fact that they hold official and diplomatic passports, which even though hardly guarantees them the maximum privilege typically given to such passport holders from other countries, they nonetheless enjoy relatively much better treatment than the standard passport holders. Incidentally, this explains why even those who don't necessarily need such official or diplomatic passports obtain them by hook or by crook and continue to use them and indeed get them renewed over and over again even after losing their various official positions that qualified them to obtain such documents.
Admittedly however, the quite embarrassing notoriety of Nigeria as a brand all over world, which unfortunately influences the way many people around the world form their first impression of them, is particularly responsible for this virtual global disregard for them in general. Unfortunately, the persistent leadership failure in the country has left many honest and hardworking Nigerians with no other option but to look elsewhere with the hope of achieving their various academic, professional and other entrepreneurial potentials. In the meantime, some criminal elements among them make it to many foreign countries around the world where they engage in criminal activities that tarnish or rather worsen the notoriety of the country's already awful image.
It is quite unfortunate that while geographical boarders are literally crumbling in the context of globalization to the extent that an increasing number of countries are not only abolishing the need for visas between them but are also dispensing with the need for even the passports altogether in favour of only national ID cards, the Nigerian passport continues to hold back and indeed frustrate many promising Nigerians from joining such global trends hence they face restrictions on their chances of achieving their potential.
In order to regain its lost respect, Nigeria has no alternative than to affect a radical and comprehensive reform in all aspects of its national endeavor, which should primarily focus on attitudinal reform in the first place as well as vigorous promotion of the sense of responsibility particular among the elite. Anything short of that would only prolong and indeed worsen the status quo.

Trimble introduces new app for smartphones
Trimble introduced its Connected Farm app for smartphone platforms. This free app uses the built-in Global Positioning System (GPS) of the smartphone for collecting in-field information to aid in fast and accurate decision making. The app allows farmers and agronomists to map field boundaries, mark flags, take geo-referenced photos and enter scouting information for pests.
The announcement was made at the Farm Progress Show.
With this Connected Farm app, farmers and agronomists will be able to:
- Map field boundaries including the calculation of the area (acres or hectares).
- Enter scouting attributes for pests (weeds, insects, diseases) or other points of interest. Attributes include an extensive list of weeds, insects and diseases and allows logging of the severity of a problem, crop conditions and more.
- Capture and geo-reference digital images of pests, field problems or field features—such as rocks, drainage problems, insects or weeds—using the smartphone's built-in camera and GPS.
- View, sort, print and analyze the information by sending to Trimble's Connected Farm web solution for free online access, or by transferring the data to Farm Works Office software.
"We are seeing an increasing number of farmers and agronomists looking for apps they can utilize on their smartphones to help them collect important data from the field," said Erik Arvesen, vice president of Trimble's Agriculture Division. "Trimble's introduction of the Connected Farm app gives farmers an easy-to-use tool to capture field data for later viewing and analysis online, while also providing agronomists with access to additional data they can use to better assess the needs of their customers."
The Connected Farm app for smartphones will be available for download from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store in September 2012. In order to use the Connected Farm app data within Farm Works Office software, current Farm Works users will need the latest software version, which can be accessed by subscribing to the Update Service Plan (USP).
The app is part of Trimble's growing Connected Farm solution, an integrated operations management solution that provides information exchange across the entire farm. Connected Farm provides wireless data transfer between the office and field, vehicle-to-vehicle information sharing and vehicle tracking.

Roman Augustoviz spends Minnesota's winters covering college hockey, specifically the Gophers, and other University of Minnesota sports. During the summer, he writes about the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx, with a dose of U sports sprinkled in. Follow him on Twitter @RomanStrib.
Yale was the No. 15 seed in the NCAA tournament. The Bulldogs/Elis only got in because Notre Dame beat Michigan in the CCHA title game. Otherwise, the Wolverines would have made it.
But once given new life, the lads from New Haven, Conn., have played like the best team in the country. They dominated UMass Lowell (no hypher, sir), the pride of Hockey East. They have made mish-mash out of the WCHA, going 4-0 against a league which had six teams in the NCAA tournament.
And tonight they will win their first NCAA title. Why not? Makes for a better story.
Don't always agree with what Don Lucia says, but before the tournament he said something like, if this tournament were played four or five times, there would be four or five different winners.
Gotta agree.
No. 1 seed Quinnipiac was the favorite going in -- at least on paper and in the PairWise computer rankings -- and the Bobcats have not disappointed those nuts and bolts, or should I say bytes and chips.
The Qs are also 3-0 vs. down-the-block Yale. Both institutions of higher learning are on Whitney Av., under eight miles apart. Q is in Hamden, Conn., Yale in New Haven.
They met for the first time at the Ingalls Rink in New Haven to a standing room only crowd. Yale got up 2-0 but lost 6-2.
Their second meetig was at High Point Solutions Arena in Hamden. Q got up 3-0 in first period -- just like they did against St. Clouod State in national semis -- and won 4-1. What was the score vs. the Huskies?
Their third meeting was in the ECAC consolation game. Imagine that. The Qs won 3-0 at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J.
So now they will meet for a fourth time, in a fourth new place. In Pittsburgh in Consul Energy Center. The Elis/Bulldogs just want to get the game into OT. They are 6-0-3 in overtimes this season.
Q is 4-0-1 vs. Yale in their past five meetings and has outscored its neighbor 13-3 this season. None of that matters, of course. This is not a total-goal series. So this is a tossup game.
Maybe nobody west of Pittsburgth wil watch this neighborhood feud game, but it's interesting two teams with little Froze Four experience and no NCAA titles are meeting for the big prize.
Probably good for the sport of hockey in the long run. Shows other middle-of-the-pack, non-marquee teams that it can be done. Anybody can make the Frozen Four with so much parity in the sport.
* The University of Connecticut, a third Division I hockey program in that state is moving from the ECAC -- Q's and Yale's conference -- to more prestigious Hockey East in 2014-15.

In the book Lunch Wars, author Amy Kalafa describes her concern that her children were exposed to unhealthful school food. She investigated and then approached the superintendent of schools to share her findings.His response? "It was not the school district's responsibility to feed the kids, just to educate them." Citizens across the nation are speaking up with challenges to this statement.

As the summer sun dips lazily into the horizon, the air fills with an orchestra of buzzing go-karts and humming ziplines punctuated by floods of laughter. The revelry lasts into the night only to start anew the next morning, a cycle that will continue until Labor Day's arrival sends Kentucky Shores Family Fun Center's attractions into hibernation. Guests of all ages romp around the park's verdant grounds, orchestrating aquatic collisions in the bumper boats or hopping aboard a horse-drawn carriage for a trip back in time without the hassle of having to arm-wrestle your past self. The 36-hole mini golf course adds a touch of the majestic to putting outings thanks to its two waterfalls and stainless steel sculptures forged by renowned artist George Bandarra. Indoors, an arcade beckons guests to video games and rounds of skeeball, and a snack bar staves off hunger pangs with frozen treats and gooey pizzas.
Whether sinking a putt or demolishing a high score, Walther's Golf & Fun surrounds visitors with the trappings of the tropics. On the dual miniature golf courses, one indoor and one outdoor, waterfalls and banana trees give the feel of golfing through a vibrant jungle. The laser-tag course is similarly themed, with tangles of neon lights washing over palm trees and weathered ruins. Jungle-print carpet coats the floor of the fully stocked arcade, and golfers practicing on the driving range wait impatiently for one droopy toucan to collect and return their golf balls.
It's easy to get lost in Two Bit Bandit Family Fun Center's massive arcade, and even easier to spend the entire day aiming for the high score on everything from air hockey to Jurassic Park pinball. But do yourself a favor and save a few hours to explore the non-virtual fun zones, which include eight batting cages and four one-on-one basketball courts. The family fun center is a popular place to celebrate a birthday or office MVP award, as two-hour celebrations include a thematically decorated party room.
Gateway Fun Park delights visitors year-round with a range of entertainment attractions for all ages—from group outings and birthday parties to packs of friends wiling away the afternoon. Mini golfers aim for the green amid two 18-hole courses' babbling brooks, stone partitions, and miniature buildings. Drivers safely let loose their suppressed road rage by bouncing into each other in bumper cars. A full-scale go-cart track gives lead feet of any age a taste of the open road, and the kiddie track lets kids ages 4–9 finally take the wheel their parents normally refuse to let them eat.
Abundant rides and games find their way into every corner of Tee Time Family Fun Center's indoor and outdoor playgrounds, which keeps guests of all ages enthralled throughout their visit. After entering the facility, it's not long before kids are hugging the racetrack?s turns from behind go-kart wheels, accelerating their bumper cars or bumper boats into fellow participants? vessels, or parading their putting skills at an 18-hole mini golf course, voted Best Miniature Golf in 2009 by Riverfront Times. A 3-D maze coaxes puzzle solvers through its black-lit labyrinth, and a multi-level soft-play area accommodates crawling tykes with its tunnels, tubes, and crawling seminars taught by worms. After playing racing games in the arcade, patrons can re-energize with pizza, chicken wings, or a slice of cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory at the snack bar.
Interactive bumper cars, 80 arcade games, and the tubes, tunnels, and slides of a soft playground all nestle within the 12,000-square-foot Swing-a-Round Fun Town facility in Fenton. Outside, waterfalls and fountains surround three professionally designed outdoor mini golf courses, and a mammoth pond accommodates 15 colliding bumper boats. The fun continues at the kiddie kart track for youngsters 3?8 years old or the more than 1,100-foot adult track, where kids can join a parent in a double-seat go-kart whose second steering wheel allows tykes to pretend drive and practice ignoring hitchhikers. Elsewhere, nine batting cages test players' homerun hitting skills with softball slow and fast pitches or baseballs flung at 35?80 mph. Swing-a-Round Fun Town's St. Charles location hosts nine batting cages as well, plus two 18-hole miniature golf courses and an arcade.

a) Pours a sparkling yellow gold, with a white rocky head. Steady bubble-beads. Great lacing as the beer drains....
s) Cool, herbal nose. Minty, floral. Slight candle wax perfume. Certainly a strong indicator of late hopping

It's busy days and nights here and abroad for Cornelia Guest, who breezed into Palm Beach to help Emilia Fanjul Sr. give a benefit for the New Hope Charity's Charter School that Emilia founded there. It was such a lively occasion, featuring a fashion show by Badgley Mischka, whose white T-shirt and paisley beaded skirt Cornelia wore. Among the guests were her mother, C.Z. Guest, Lourdes Fanjul, Lian Azqueta and the town's mayor, Lesly Smith.
Yesterday, Cornelia was on the Concorde streaking to London to attend a benefit tonight for London's historic Old Vic Theatre called "Elton John and Kevin Spacey: An Evening with Friends." Cornelia, who will slip into a black lace gown by Badgley Mischka, will be escorted by David Furnish, who worked with Sally Green — the theater's guiding light — to put the evening together. And what a grand night it should be, starting with a duet by Elton and Kevin and appearances by Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, Sting, Diana Krall, Peter O'Toole, Elvis Costello and the like. The highlight of the evening will be Kevin's announcement that he will take over as artistic director of the legendary theater that he fell in love with while starring there in "The Iceman Cometh" in 1998.
Then, after a quick check on her beloved showjumpers — the ones she keeps stabled in England — Cornelia flies back to New York for fashion week, where in her role as the international ambassador for La Prairie, she'll host a "Night of Beauty" at Bergdorf Goodman on Feb. 11. She also will take in the shows of Badgley Mischka, Marc Jacobs, and Anand Jon, who will parade his collection in Bryant Park on Feb. 12. Gillian and Lydia Hearst Shaw will give a party for 50 in his honor right after the show at the restaurant Olica. Cornelia will attend on the arm of MAC cosmetics chief, John Demsey, and then fly back to her London house.
For a nap? She did it the hard way. She earned it.

Farmers are welcoming the Government's $400 million irrigation project, but the Green Party is warning it will mean more intensive farming and even more river pollution.
Primary Industries Minister David Carter announced on Wednesday the May budget will allocate $80m start-up funding for the project.
A Government-owned company will be set up to attract private investment for regional water infrastructure development.
That development will include how rainfall is capture and stored for dry summer periods, and improving productivity of land with better, more reliable water access.
More efficient use of water will also reduce leaching of nutrients from land to neighbouring waterways.
Federated Farmers applauded the announcement - and says environmentalists should too.
President Bruce Wills says pasture at his Hawke's Bay farm is brown, after no significant rainfall since mid-December.
"It highlights the big two opportunities we have with water storage: the economic and the environmental," he said.
"Farms like mine have dams but they can only last so long. In winter, when you see our rivers over capacity, you ask why this cannot be stored for use when we hit a dry spell like now."
He says a distribution price for farmers means the scheme will be a hand up, rather than a hand-out.
However, Green Party water spokeswoman Eugenie Sage says with 52 percent of rivers already unfit for swimming, irrigation schemes will only make the situation worse.
"More irrigation and more intensive agriculture, with increased stocking and more fertiliser, will result in greater water pollution," she said.
"And at the same time the Government is subsidising irrigation it is reducing the ability of the Department of Conservation and community organisations to advocate for healthy rivers - it has slashed funding and weakened water conservation orders."
