Here's a recent one: I love this LO from Elenasworld. When I saw it in the gallery I immediately tagged it as a fave. The creativity and the cute memo board look- it's great!
And not so recent: I love pSyren's layouts- I think every single one- but I remember this one is a super creative layout and I like the journaling too!

Love those above me! And pretty much everything from Daf! Especially this one...:
ok..couldn't help myself... this one too! not about the kit she used..it's all about the journaling for me... just seems so meaningful to have captured this so wonderfully that someday far into the future, it can be re-lived again.
Here is one I added to my faves. So creative and just darn cute!!!
This is one that I recently added to my favs - Just love everything about it - Great LO Karin and just take a look at the rest of Karin's gallery.
Thanks, Deb - you made my day! That Extraordinay Day layout is still one of my all-time favorites of my pages....
Now, here is one of my faves. I am a HUGE fan of Kim's (griest) work - she has a wonderful, clean style that I think is fantastic. So, here's my latest favorite of hers:
Edited to add:
And, oh my goodness, how could I possibly forget this one - this is my favorite layout of all time - :) Erin did an awesome job with this layout!

My blog - where everything is Absolute Poppycock
These are all awesome you guys! And thanks Daffy - I love that you love that LO!! :)
Thanks for the kind comments, Daffy. My DH was complaining that I don't scrap him often (never mind that he always complains when I try to take his pic!) so I wanted to use the great collab kit and scrap him and my DD. So glad you like it!
Oops--forgot to post one of my favs by Myasmommy!!--"Working in the Garden" This little cutie really looks like she's taking care of those floweres. So sweet!
Ps---I could use a tute on how to get the preview to show up here--If anyone can help out!!

Wow! Thanks Schock77 -- you made my day
I added this one by allinesc to my favorites a few days ago.

Projectors that can do 3D are becoming as common as, well… projectors that can do 2D. BenQ is hoping to make its W7000 a real standout by including a little something extra.
According to the company, the W7000 is the "world's first" projector to get TÜV Rheinland 3D Full-HD Certification. Whether or not that holds stock with you is a different story.
If that doesn't work, the W7000 has a bevy of other impressive features. Powered by DLP Link, the W7000 can deliver full 1080p HD in both 2D and 3D. Other features include a 50,000:1 high contrast ratio, 2,000 ANSI lumens of brightness, BrilliantColor and VIDI technologies, and two HDMI 1.4a inputs.
Read a review of Optoma's HD33 3D Projector.
Designed for everything from 3D movies to sports to video games, the W7000 also has three preset modes for 2D and 3D, Panamorph lenses, and ISFccc certification. Another bonus is that the W7000 does not require an external emitter. However, if you want to do the 3D, you're going to need to buy compatible 3D glasses.
BenQ is selling the W7000 now for $2,499.

Sep 17, 2013This game deserves a better user score. I hope nobody takes it serious, because there are a lot of butthurt fakevotes.
Well to the game. This is the GTA you've always been waiting for! Yes it's true. You loved San Andreas because of gameplay? You loved Vice City because of music and atmosphere? GTA 3's innovation? GTA IV's story? Well I'll explain.
This GTA brings it all together. The playing of three characters at once goes really smooth, it feels just how it should be, shooting and driving is really fun, it's kinda a mix between the realistic driving in GTA IV, arcade driving in Midnight Club, and shooting from Max Payne 3, and this is perfect!
The missions are fun again, many people thought GTA IV had too similar missions, and I thought so too, but now you'll never get bored I assure you! The story is really well written, won't write more about that cause there is a lot to spoiler.
The world is really massive, the countryside isn't boring at all, and seriously, who wasn't missing that after GTA IV? I don't know how R* did this, but even the graphics improved, while the game is bigger over all.
You can do so much stuff in Los Santos and it's countryside, it's unbelievable that it is just one game! I played for at least 20 hours now, and I have so much more to see and explore, just crazy!
Well what else can I say? Buy it Play it yourself and agree! It's a really good game … Expand
Sep 17, 2013I'm writing this review because I feel I have to. Everyone needs to know how fantastic and incredible this game is. The world is big and beautiful, graphics are gorgeous, characters are very likeable (especially Trevor) and the attention to detail is astounding. This is a must play and rockstar's greatest game of all time. It definitely lives up to the hype. There is just so much to say about this game but it will take forever to explain how groundbreaking it really is. If you liked 4 you will absolutely love this one. There is so much to see and do in this living world rockstar has created. Only flaws I've seen are a bit of pop in and very few glitches. It is extremely polished and was well worth the wait. It's games like these that set the bar infinitely high for open world games and proves that rockstar is the king of open world games. It's gonna be hard to beat this game out...even next gen games don't stand a chance against the masterpiece that is gta 5.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013The journey of the three protagonists and their pursuit of the dollar in the beautiful, sun-drenched state of San Andreas is a breath taking experience. Quite simply put, this is the best video game I have played for the current generation of consoles.
It seems as though the user score is being attacked by disgruntled PC fans, or possibly, fans of an equally GOTY deserving title. For the time being, disregard the user score.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013One hell of a game. It has a great narrative, tight gameplay and a fantastic soundtrack. It's everything you could want from a Rockstar game and more! Game of the year and quite possibly the game of this generation. (Ignore the jealous PC fanboys and buy this game!)
Sep 17, 2013Simply the best game on this generation. Its so much fun to play this game, its never boring and you can do everything! Best GTA ever, best Xbox game ever. You just must have it!
Sep 17, 2013No need for long reviews guys, it's simply the BEST GAME EVER MADE (but since i need 150 characters i have to write this to fulfill the requirement asdasd)
Sep 17, 2013Clearly the best GTA game i have ever played. The world's large, massive and amazing. So many features to explore. The Online features makes the game even more amazing. Rockstar Games's best release ever. I appreciate all their hardwork in making a superb game like this Thank you Rockstar Games.
Sep 17, 2013Driving feels more like it did in Need For Speed games,fewer car accidents.
The world is massive! If one word could sum up the game I think it would be 'detail'. Every aspect of the game is as detailed as possible and it is easily the best game ever made respective of the technological possibility in 2013.
Sep 17, 2013So it seems that haters/PC users are attacking the user score. I'll keep this one short.
Over the past four straight hours of playing Grand Theft Auto V I've found that there is nothing to criticize. Believe me when I say that absolutely nothing. Bringing the world of San Andreas into the soon-to-be obsolete video game generation sets Rockstar to a new path: a path that will catapult them to the top of the "video game industry food chain". That's all I can say. This game unanimously deserved Game of the Year 2013.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Best GTA ever no doubt you can do anything you want customize cars,weapons,buy house and garage. And the map is huge its GTA:SA,GTA IV,RDR combined.
GOTY and GOTG
Sep 17, 2013Phenomenal. That is the best way to describe this game. Grand Theft Auto V pushes and exceeds the very boundaries of gaming. It is a remarkable achievement in storytelling, world design, audio and visuals, and most importantly, pure gameplay. It is immense fun. Every game mechanic is tightly interwoven and heavily polished; and yet they're good enough to stand on their own. What makes this game truly special is the scope, size, and ambition of the entire thing. It's simply huge. It improves on the already great aspects of other Grand Theft Auto games that preceded it. It is everything that one could hope for in an open world game, and more. I am not exaggerating when I say that it is easily the best game of this generation, or even of all time. 10/10.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Best gta game ever made massive, detailed map and lots of entertaining stuff to do. Those who cry about graphics think again its open world you see it, you can go there. It is still looking 2x as good as gta iv. And also it is running on 7 year old hardware.
Sep 17, 2013I just felt the need to come on here after playing for a few hours and say that the game is absolutely freaking fantastic. You can basically do anything you want. See somewhere you want to go? Go do it. See a store you want to rob? Go heist it. See someone getting robbed? Well, that decision is up to you- vigilante or innocent bystander? The sheer amount of choice GTA V gives you is enough to warrant a fantastic score. The game is absolutely amazing and is a must-have.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Grand Theft Auto V is Rockstar's definitive open-world masterpiece, a magnum opus and the culmination of everything Rockstar has created to date. Almost entirely flawless, GTA V is the perfect marriage of story and unhindered freedom to explore, with the promise of hidden secrets scattered across the deserts, hills and wilderness of Blaine County. Boasting planes, trains, automobiles, helicopters, motorcycles, bicycles, parachutes, boats, submarines and a multitude of guns, Grand Theft Auto V is all things to all gamers. It's quite simply perfect in every way.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Most of the time i'm gaming on the PC, because i love te play FPS, strategy and MMORPG games.
But to be honest, this game is really good and i am lucky that i have a X360 to play it!
One good reason to play more on the console or even buy one for this game, its very worth the money and your time!
Sep 17, 2013Best game ever, bar none. I will be playing this for years to come, and there is still gta online to come yet and complete masterpiece in gaming, and the best gta game.
Sep 17, 2013I know there are a ton of positive things to say about this game, but i would like to point out what I feel is its biggest weakness. The look sensitivity is too way slow, even on the highest setting. Any possibly of this game winning over FPS fans seems doubtful in its current state due to this oversight. This disappointing blunder severely needs to be addressed in a future patch. At some points the limitations of current-gen gaming already make me hope for an announcement from Rockstar of a PS4 version of the game. That, with the aim sensitivity fixed, would truly be your perfect-10 game. However, this is still one of the best games available on the current-gen systems. 9.75 out of 10.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Best game ever without a doubt, just play the game and see for yourself, there is nothing more to say.
Anybody who hates on this game has absolutely no taste in good games or is a hating PC gamer, just ignore these bad reviews
Sep 17, 2013Amazing Game! It's so fun its unreal and all the things you can do on it is mind boggling best game I've ever played! Must Buy! I never thought it could be this good!
Sep 17, 2013haters gonna hate
best game of this generation.
there's nothing similar to GTA V in the industry, they are on another level, you can see that they care like no other publisher
Sep 17, 2013I game full of life. I've never been so distracted in a game before. The game exceeds what I was expecting from the graphics, pushing the hardware to it's limits. I was surprised at how colourful the game was at first, a huge step up from the dark, cold city of GTA IV. The map is huge... I mean huge! Not just in size, but detail as well!
The game is amazing in all aspects, from the highly detailed, comical cutscenes, to the in-depth car customisations.
Once again Rockstar has set a new standard for gaming.
-Amazing Graphics
-Small details
-Improved physics, car damage and control, guns.
-Open world fun.
-Perfected features such as character switching, changing weapons, abilities and more.
-Humour, from the tv shows, to radio stations, or random citizens of los santos. They all make you smile and searching for more humourous content.
-Texture/item pop-in which is minimal, and easily ignored. Sadly this is down to the hardware. Can't wait to see what they're capable of in the next-gen/PC (possible) versions of GTA V or any future ones.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013What an absolutely incredible game.
I luckily received the game early to review it for a smaller gaming journalism website and I legitimately feel that this is the best game i've played in these eight years of the seventh console generation, perhaps even of all time. I hope I don't lose any manpoints but I am happy to tell you that at a certain point of the game (avoiding spoilers) I shed a tear. This isn't just a video game, it's artwork.
Regardless of the consoles it has been released for, this game isn't just a 'taste' of next-gen... it IS next-gen.
10/10… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Best game of the year, everything you would expect from a GTA game and more! Once GTA online comes out in 2 weeks it will only get better! Over 60+ hours of gameplay and an environment just as rich as skyrim
Sep 17, 20135 hours in. Makes GTA 4 feel like an arcade game.Nothing has ever come closer to feeling like real life. Many times I even flinched just getting in an accident or getting punched when pissing someone off. In all ways of saying it, I can't even wrap my head around how Rockstar got the current gen to run a game like this. I will now discontinue sleeping for the next 2 weeks.
Sep 17, 2013This game is the mutts nuts. Got it last night after queuing for half an hour was worth the wait. Rockstar north have done it again. Scotland should be proud. I loved gta 4 and this looks to be even bigger and better everything has been tweaked. Pisses me of when I see negative user review on here because its not on pc YET! It will be calm down. Just like gta 4 was later on. So stop being ridiculous. That's like me leaving a revew on witcher 2 because it didnt come onto the 360 at the same time as pc. It's stupid grow up children. This is a great game.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013People are undoubtedly going to hate on this game, but it's most certainly a game that must be played to be believed. It's vast. I've only been playing a couple hours, but I already know i'll be up for a few more at least. Don't listen to the hater's the game is well worth checking out!
Sep 17, 2013This game is the best game i ever played! Everything in this game is just (near) perfect!!
The graphics, the artwork, the soundtrack, the gameplay, the characters, just about everything you can imagine. But why are you reading this, go play GTA V now!!!
Sep 17, 2013The game is amazing, I love everything about it! You really can do anything, from golf to skydiving, to biking, to of course the main story which I find to be a lot more entertaining and intriguing then GTA IV. I don't think ive enjoyed a game this much in a long time, if you buy one game this year buy this.
Sep 17, 2013Sharp, intelligent and humorous, GTA V is more than just the best game for current-gen platforms, it's a social commentary on contemporary America. The combination of masterful gameplay with constant knocks and blows at American culture is a serendipitous swansong to Rockstar's most successful franchise, one in which I've been coming back to time and time again. Limitlessly enjoyable and stupendously thrilling, GTA V has been the last bow of grace from the PS3 AND XBOX 360, expertly demonstrating what capable and successful machines they both are. Spectacularly beautiful, bitingly funny and heart-pumping gameplay are all you'll find in this zenith of a game.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Unbelievable! the map is enormous, there are tons of new, fun things to do, and so far I am very impressed by the storyline. Rockstar hit another one out of the park with this game.
P.S. the radio is awesome. there are something like 1000 tracks and as always the talk shows are hilarious.
Sep 17, 2013It's the best game i've ever played in my entire life. The city is so huge and i'm amazed by the graphic on xbox 360 which is almost 8 years old console. There is just so much to do in this game.
Sep 17, 2013Well, the time has finally come. After 5 years of waiting, we finally have the game we've all been waiting for.
Grand Theft Auto has only been released today but it's got the whole world paying attention.
After the minimal GTA IV, everyone has been eager for the next instalment to match up with GTA: San Andreas. The freedom that was available in San Andreas stayed in everyone's hearts and minds for all these years, and now it's back with style!
The world is massive. When I say massive, I mean massive!
There were a lot of complaints from people when the map was leaked, saying that Los Santos is tiny and they were hoping for more. When you actually enter the world though, you finally see the epic scale of what Rockstar have created.
Once you're on the road and doing your thing, the size doesn't even cross your mind because you're so involved with the game. Busting down roads in a sports car you've just stolen going at top speed still doesn't cover the map in any short time. That's not to mention Blaine County! The area is so huge and has so much to do there, you find yourself staying in the dirt county and enjoying the views and all the activities there is to do. It's great because Los Santos and Blaine County feel like totally different worlds, but you get to enjoy them in one solid game.
I really enjoyed GTA: IV, because it felt fresh on the now current gen platforms. I always saw mixed reviews about the driving, but honestly, I loved it. It did take some time to adjust to the smooth, but loose handling of the cars, but after that it was just a barrel of fun.
To be honest though, I am glad that they have changed the mechanics of the handling on GTA V.
With the area been so big and varied, the sharper handling certainly does help out in some sticky situations. It's almost like they blended GTA: San Andreas & GTA: IV's handling and created something special. Sometimes it can feel like the handling is harsh, but once you get the hang of it, it certainly is something beautiful. Especially when you are on a mission and you have the police on your tail. This is where you get high end chases and everything flows perfect.
So far I am really enjoying the story. It really feels like I'm in a interactive movie.
The scripting is done hilariously well. You want to know what the stories about and how they are going to come out on top. It really is great to see a well scripted story, but also a game that is so open and inviting, you feel drawn in and want to stay there. One minute you could be pulling off a major heist and the next you're riding your bike along the beach front watching the sun set.
The gun play has greatly improved. If you are familiar with GTA: IV's controls for shooting then you'll be right at home here. It's a great mix of GTA and Max Payne 3, especially when you control Michael, as his special ability is slow motion. Yup, you read that right, each of the 3 characters has their own special ability. Michael has his slow motion for gun fights, Franklin has his slow motion focus with vehicles, which is great for getaways! And Trevor, who has a wicked rage ability. He inflicts extra damage on people, literally blowing their heads off! His damage is also reduced which really does help when you're in a rampage mood.
There really is a enormous amount of content in this game. Something which is going to be absolutely amazing when GTA: Online is released on the 1st October.
If you're looking for a new open world game to play, that offers the most amount of content you've ever seen (And that's not including GTA: Online), and you're looking for a fun story that draws you in to what's going on in the world, then Grand Theft Auto V is the game for you.
The unpredictable world really has so much to offer. You could be planning to do one thing and then something pops up along the way and while you're doing that, something else starts to happen. It all feels organic. You don't feel like you're forcing yourself to do anything. You just kick back and let the game entertain you.
I definitely urge any long time fan of the GTA series, or anyone who loves their open world/action games, hell, even sports games, to give this a go.
The amount of content and things to do is enough to keep everyone interested for a long time.
This game will be getting a 10/10 from me! The fact it made me want to write my very first review, shows me this game is special. I'm anxiously waiting to finish work so I can go and enjoy the world of Grand Theft Auto V, again!
I hope everyone enjoyed my short review, or at the very least found the information helpful!
Until next time!

Sep 17, 2013Played this for the last 48 hours with the help of pro-plus, and the size of the world is insane, the humour Is back, the unpredictability is back, the craziness is definitely back, there are parts of the world I am just discovering, the scripts are mad, especially Trevor's, the cars don't feel like they are on ice skates like they did in GTA4, the shooting is smooth, 50sq miles of fun (7x7) biggest distance in miles is 7.3 miles form the top of the map to the bottom, messure 7.3 miles on your mileomiter, that will give you an idea of how big this world is!… Expand
Sep 17, 2013hands down best game of the year! better yet this is one of the best games i played in my life. great storyline and exciting gameplay. this tops anything that came out this year so glad i bought it day one! i think a lot of people are going like this game.
Sep 17, 2013I only played for about a half hour and i can already say that this game is a masterpiece!!
There is so much to do, its never ever get boring its just amazing how big and beautiful the world is, how the characters feel unique and alive, how the gameplay is, the soundtrack and oh my god those graphics, my xbox 360 is pushed to the limits!
For PC gamers just buy a 360 or PS3 and dont gonna hate, the graphics are not bad at all for a console game!… Expand
Sep 17, 2013I'm a girl and i normally don't play games but i make a exception for this one, my boyfriend played this tonight so now i purchased the game for my self to because i was very impressed by the game. So to any girl who doesnt like games in general, try this one it wil blow you away haha
One truly must laugh at the sheer volume of collected butthurts this butthurt trap has caught. User trolls galore. There is a guy writing the same review word for word with a few minor changes on seperate accounts just to downrank the games user score. I assure you trolls, this game won't be brought down by the same technique that brought others down. There are far more supporters of this game than there are thumbsucking PC gamers who didn't get the game. Sucks for you guys though LOL. anyway, this game is so far fantastic. So much more bright than gta 4 More variety a better characters, just better. Amazing. Hilarious. Buy it.… Collapse
Sep 17, 2013Simply brilliant! I got the xbox360 version at a midnight release and played throughout the whole night, even though I'm writing exams today. It's superb gameplay and funny interesting story. 15/10 is more like it!
Sep 17, 2013amazing game, in short words GTA V has improved in basically everything and some elements that made GTA SA a special game have returned. Just play it and after playing it for a hour or two you won't be able to put the controler down.
Ignore the negative reviews, its just a bunch of angry pc gamers or whining kids... just look at the what they wrote
Sep 17, 2013Perfection.This game is more than i was hoping for... huge map, freedom to do anything.I like the idea of controlling three character instead of one and i like the interaction they have.The king of Open World games is back.
Sep 17, 2013A Masterpiece simply the best GTA to date and the best work from Rockstar Games it's a must have for everyone who are looking for alot of fun so go and buy this masterpiece
Sep 18, 2013what? 8,1 user score? All this trolls and haters can't do nothing with this masterpiece. Best Grand Theft Auto ever, even better than San Andreas, so what are you waiting for?
Sep 17, 2013Amazing game to end this generation. Shouldn't see anything get better than this until next gen hits. 3 character story is stroke of genius. Rockstar set the bar high.
Sep 17, 2013This is the game of the decade, and I mean it! There is nothing that is not perfect in this game! Maybe the storyline if you're not familiar with the goofy nature of the series, but I'm making this review for Open-world fans. This game is perfect. Perfect. I have been trying so hard to find something to criticise but I just can't. GTA V is the game you have been waiting for, everyone! Go and buy it if you haven't already.
P.S: It's pathetic to rate a game 0 just because it's available on your gameing platform.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Serious butthurt from some PC fanboys here. Why? I'm mainly a PC gamer, but I do have a console and well, I bought this game. It's perfect. It might not be if you care too much about graphics, but I personally don't, and they're amazing for a game this big running on a 7 years old hardware anyway. This game is massive, ambitious, beautiful, funny. Everything. This game is almost perfect. Buy it ASAP!… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Game of the decade in my opinion. It's such an excellent game. I swear anyone who will give it a shot, will be addicted to playing it. Best GTA game and best all around game PERIOD. One only minor issue I had was some weird but funny glitches. (Such as entering michael's residence and seeing his daughter standing on the couch and his wife standing on the counter in the kitchen.) If you plan on purchasing, today is your final day for a week since everywhere I look it's out of stock already. So BUY IT.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013GTA V shows that Rockstar still has plenty gas left in the tank with the GTA franchise. The map is HUGE (I still wish they had Las Venturas from San Andreas. [But I digress...]), the graphics are not the best, but nonetheless they are very good, and all of the main characters (Michael, Franklin, and Trevor) are fun to play as in their own way. Michael gives you the luxury life, Franklin gives you the gangster life, and Trevor gives you the crazy life. Not to mention that the amount of activities are limitless. You will be hooked for months on end. The story absolutely beats the stories of the previous installments, including GTA IV (along with its DLCs) and San Andreas. The story is deep and extremely fun to play. Customization has been improved greatly, with customizable cars, tatoos, and players in GTA Online. Speaking of Online, this game has all of the great modes from GTA IV, along with a much deeper and fun experience in free mode.
Overall, this game is the best GTA game ever, rockstar's best game ever, Xbox 360s best game ever, one of the best games from this generation, and even one of the best games ever made. I was proud that I had pre-ordered and purchased this game in every way possible. This is, without much doubt, the best game I have ever played...… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) is truly the game of the year, perhaps the game of the generation. This game is mindblowing. The story has been written perfectly and is really living. I almost felt like I was in the game. The world is HUGE. I played GTA IV before the release and god damn, this feels so different. It takes me about 10 minutes to go from south to north in Liberty City. The GTA V map is bigger than RDR, GTA IV and GTA SA together. Go figure how long it'll take to go from south to north. The game is pretty stable overall, sometimes you'll notice FPS drops. Seriously, you notice these. It doesn't happen often though, so don't worry. Car driving is improved over GTA IV, cars drive smooth. Character switching is also smooth, sometimes when switching characters you'll notice them doing something else. I once switched to Trevor, and... find that out for yourself.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Best game ever
much better then GTA IV
i played it last night and loved it
looking forward to the online
The driving physics are worlds better than they were in GTA IV. I keep finding myself driving around aimlessly because it's so fun to drive
Sep 17, 2013This game is the culmination of a lot of previous Rockstar games. In this game I can see aspects from GTA III and IV, as well as Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne 3. To describe the game in one word: Extraordinary definitely the game of this generation.
The sheer amount of detail in the vast world that you can explore freely is quite simply astounding, with so much to do that you cannot get bored. I'm not sure how they have managed to squeeze this much out of 7-8 year old hardware, I didn't think it was possible. I'm not sure how this game got the same score as IV, because in my opinion this is a superior game. The three protagonist switching feature is awesome, car handling is better, the graphical fidelity is better, the cover mode in combat is better, the missions are more varied, the characters and storyline is better and finally, there is more to do after the missions have been completed.
The only minor complaint I have is the heists. I feel they could have gone further with them. When I had finished them, I was left wanting more although you can replay them over (and over and over and over and over) again at any time, along with any previous mission.
The game does push its luck, especially with the torture scene, but it is Grand Theft Auto, remember. Fans of the series probably won't be shocked by it it's what we've come to expect in this franchise, and we love it.
To sum up: Rockstar's best game ever, the best XBOX 360/Playstation 3 game ever, the best game in this generation, and one of the best games of all time on any platform simply brilliant! 10 out of 10 all the way.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013A staggeringly beautiful, impeccably voice-acted, amazingly fluid and incredibly fun game, GTA V is not just a great Grand Theft Auto game which is a very high complement in itself but possibly the greatest video game ever made. The game-play is faultless and sets the already high bar far above its competition. For five years, we have witnessed rival franchises like Saints Row and Watchdogs expand dangerously close into GTA's territory, but GTA V completely trumps these relatively uninnovative series and shows the world how the GTA series is not just incredibly fun and an escapist's dream, but also a work of art of the 21st century. 10/10.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Amazing game with stunning visuals, story, and gameplay. Definitely Game of the Year material. I knew this game was going to be a masterpiece from the moment I saw the first trailer.
Sep 17, 2013This game is one of the best games Ive ever played.. Have only played a few hours and barely touched the storyline. But Ive had a blast. The environment is stunning and gameplay is smooth fun times. If you rate this game less than an 8 you have no place rating games. 10 from me, cant wait to see what online brings to the table.
Sep 17, 2013Best game i've played in years. It's like san andreas 2 but not completely gangster the entire time. Everything about the game is amazing and the user score should be higher
Sep 17, 2013I play every game that comes out for xbox 360 including the (IN MY OPINION) terrible terrible GTA iv. this game is hilarious and has much better controlls then gta iv it runs like 100x smoother aswell no blurring haha. before this game came out i really didnt think it was going to beable to live up to all the hype, well, it did.
Sep 17, 2013I am a seasoned gamer and a middle aged man by now. I have seen and played many games by now.
I don't really like playing with a controller (I prefer kb+m) or playing on a console.
For this title I simply don't care.
The game is so good, so rich, so full of story that controls, graphics (surprisingly beautiful for an aging PS3) just don't get in the way of full immersion.
I challenge anyone to do a better game, I don't hesitate to give it a full 10, just for the sheer amount of content that's in it in day one.
In the days of DLCs, freeemium, getting such a vast expanse of a game to play with is just pure bliss.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Ignore the dumbass PC haters, keep in mind the only bad ratings are because a) cowards who can't take the excessive violence and b) pc gaming master (I love pc but this is crossing the line) who are jelous and want a pc port (I do to) GTA IV is nothing compared to this.
Sep 17, 2013Most of the bad reviews is from people who want it on pc, they give the game a bad review because they are idiots, and the couple bad reviews from gamers claim its the same as gta 4, having played 10 hours already it is no where near what gta 4 was. this game is wonderful the landscape the side quests the activities is amazing, I play every new released game that comes out and I must say this is the best game ive played in years. I love this game… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Grand Theft Auto 5 exceeds the boundaries of the outdated current gen consoles that allows for one of the most alive open worlds ever created in the history of gaming.
Sep 17, 2013fascinating, brilliant, this is not a game, but a masterpiece. Great work on getting Rockstargames make a game of the current generation look like a 'next-gen'. Gorgeous graphics, wonderful cars, drive perfect, flawless ambiance. Undoubtedly, GOTY.
Sep 18, 2013Wow best game ever
Rockstar Game's best release ever It has a great narrative, tight gameplay and a fantastic soundtrack. It's everything you could want from a Rockstar game and more! Game of the year and quite possibly the game of this generation
Sep 17, 2013I love this game so much, i waited so long for this game but it was worth all the waiting because its very good, near perfect!
The first thing i gonna do is play this game when i come home from work, i only played a couple of minutes yesterday but i have a good impression of the game, the game is beautiful, fun, exciting and interesting!! Damn im gonna play this for a long time!
Sep 17, 2013Rockstar never fails to amaze it's fans. The game is massive with a beautiful world to discover, pushing current gen consoles to their limit. The story is action packed and not to mention you get to play as 3 characters. Great game!
Sep 17, 2013Incredible game in a lot of ways. I have never seen a so deep game Wonderful job from one of the very best game producer of History.... Thanks Rockstar
Sep 17, 2013First review and first time being on the site. It is really amazing how many immature babies are on here "reviewing" the game. No wonder PC players get a bad wrap when you have a small amount of ppl who act like complete kindergartners. I always hear how they are happy to be playing on PC because they don't have to deal with lil kids playing COD and screaming on the mics but wow you guys seem to act like the same lil kids. Giving the game a 0 because its not on PC yet lmao, how sad.
Game deserves all the praise it gets. Easily the best GTA game Rockstar has made, they have improved in every way from GTA 4. The gunplay, the melee combat, the driving, THE WORLD. From jump you automatically see how much more beautiful and different Los Santos is from Liberty City. Still have so much more to play,.
I'm giving it a 10/10 and we still have GTA Online in a few weeks. Could easily go up to 11.… Expand
Sep 18, 2013I have to say this game is amazing so far. Im about 8 missions into the game and the dialogue has had me laughing at every conversation. The map is outstanding as well. With so much to explore im definitely not going to be doing homework for a while. I would like to address the complaints about the fps rate and the textures
People we are playing on 7 year old hardware. Amazingly enough the game isnt freezing on me with the outstanding graphics.
Another thing is people complaining about it not being corely for the pc. Theres obviously a reason and its MONEY! Its basically a no brainer to core it for xbox and playstation. I dont blame them. I have a monster pc and i would personally rather play this on the xbox then pc. (my opinion)
Overall this game is outstanding and i cant wait for the sleepless nights and skipped classes.
10/10… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Absolutely amazing game in every way. The fact that the game runs so smoothly on decade-old consoles is insane. Amazing graphics, great gameplay, improved driving, tons more to do compared to GTA IV.
Everything is simply better.
Sep 17, 2013It's simply incredible. Just play it and don't worry about any of the cry babies going on and on about how nasty it is. The chances are they haven't even played it.
This is the landmark game of the generation.
Sep 17, 2013Normally i dont write reviews, but this game was so good and spectacular that i find the need to do so.
I always was a gta fan and this is really the best gta ever, maybe even the best of this generation or hell maybe the best ever. I have purchased the special edition because the normal edition was selled out, you hear me selled out!! That says something, thats a statement!!
Sep 19, 2013I would like to make a few things clear about this game, If you see anyone on here that says "THE GRAPHICS ARE TERRIBLE" or "THE LOAD TIMES OMG" are just lying or have a ps3. Im not bashing the ps3 but there has been a confirmed texture glitch on ps3.
Ive only had to load a few times the whole time ive played the game once when I installed the game and once when you load your saves, there is NO LOAD TIMES BETWEEN, BEFORE OR AFTER CUTSCENES and who ever says that is lying about it. There are load times between character switching but the switching was faster than loading a mutiplayer map on an FPS.
The city is bigger than liberty city it feels even bigger than the Orignal Los santos we say in gta san. If someone is telling you that the city is "small" and "not as big as the other cities" is lying to you. I know this because the first time I saw the map I thought the city looked small myself when I got there I clearly saw I was wrong. Ive been playing for 10 hours now and I still havent seen all the city or even touched the wilderness areas.
There isnt much to say about the graphics, there are a lot more effects and sun flares, the game looks better, the cars look better, everything just looks better.
There are some bad things though...I did have a major frame rate drop while I was playing, It happened once but It was HORRIABLE, I dropped down to what felt like less than 10 frames for no reason what so ever. also if you look at the shadows too closely you can clearly see choppy and distorted shadows.
Gameplay; The game play in this game feels....ok I guess, it isnt max payne which a lot of us were hoping for but it does get the job done, driving feels great.....shooting on the other hand just doesnt feel like it has the beefy impacts as gtaiv or max payne or even red dead have, but this doesnt effect scores since that is just a cosmetic effect. Another problem I have about the game play is the specials each character gets; Micheal can slow down time while shooting max payne style, frank can slow down time while driving which also allows him to handle better and trevor can deal more damage while taking less., but the thing is Micheals just doesnt work or feel good it slows down time but it also slows you so much it doesnt even matter. Trevors is just hard to notice. But frank on the other hand feels good yet overpowered because of one thing, Frank can slow down time while in a car which means if hes doing drive bys he gets THE SAME EFFECT AS MICHEAL JUST IN A CAR! so basically frank gets two benefits while the others only get one.
This game is not for everyone, If you dont like open worlds which have dense cities and open country sides you will not like this game, this game is a lot of driving and a lot of story which your average fps fan would not care for. Me personally I love the game, I love its openness I love the look and its just nice to see a new gta game, It also *SLIGHT SPOILER* has some pretty wacky moments that compare with saints row. but the thing is you have to know where to go to see these and you have to be willing to explore and find stuff your self and not be afraid of what might happen.
A break down and final word: Graphics are nothing to worry about, Top notch graphics and only one major frame drop so far, which is great compared to other games this gen.
Gameplay is fun but no real learning curve.
Im giving it a 10/10 just because the things I mentioned are not game breaking what so ever,...
Oh and one last thing, people complaining about draw distance and the roads need to remember that the city is based off of LA, A city which does have 6 lane super highways and smog so dense you cant see the horizen. and heres a little tip.... The game DOESNT have poor draw distance, its literally the smog just like in real LA. this smog doesnt show up at night or in the country side, so anyone who is saying the game has draw distance clearly has never been to LA or seen real pictures besides the ones we see on TV of a clear clean LA. LA IS SMOGGY and the game shows it like that.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013I salute Rockstar for making me wait for a game, then actually have me still love playing it. GTAV does a great job in many aspects, I can find almost no flaws with it. I would like a PC version, but I'm still more than satisfied with what GTAV has to offer.
Sep 17, 2013this game is not only perfect its a revolotion in open world game because los santos is massive and on its Every pixel have a surprise for you thank you rockstar
Sep 17, 2013I have just played a few hours of it but already I know it is a classic. The world is amazing. People should also stop putting 0 scores up. That is just sad.
Sep 17, 2013Not sure why this has a low userscore, must be SR or old GTA trolls but this game is THE best open world game out there. Its like SA on massive roids, so much more than a hd remake. 10/10 One small note is that gta online isnt out yet so its a shame we have to wait 2 weeks for that but its going to be awesome i am sure. PS3 version is flawless not one bug and runs 30fps+ 720p native which is VERY good for a gta game on any platform… Expand
Sep 17, 2013I had to make an account just for this game and its underrated user score. This game is a perfect 10, one of the best games I've played in my life and infinitely better than Gta IV that i never could smother up the interest too finish. Game world is full of small details that bring the world to life, the characters are lively, believable and very well built. Trevor is one of the most memorable characters in the history of gaming, Humor does not fall flat. Game play elements are excellent and no mission has bored me. But the DETAILS. That's what is key. I watched a whole episode of Fame or Shame in-game. Thats how deep GTA V sucked me in… Expand
Sep 18, 2013Best game i ever played in my entire life! story is really amazing gameplay is straight out amazing there's not is enough words that can describe on how amazing this game really is. i give it a 10/10 Best Game Of The Decade
Sep 17, 2013This is one of the best GTA games in the series. The user score is brought down by a bunch of PC loving cry babies. The graphics are great and the game play is smooth. It is also consistent. One thing I noticed was that the characters talked and moved the same in game play and cut scenes. This game is almost like playing out a movie. It is hard not to be so engaged in the game as a whole. Overall, look at what negative user reviews are saying and you will see that they do not have legitimate arguments for their ratings.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013The definitive GTA release thus far. If you liked the prior GTA titles in the past, you need this game in your PS3 or 360. The flight model and driving physics are rock solid. The story based missions are the best seen in an open world game. R* have really raised the bar. Buy it.
Sep 17, 2013.........................................WHY ARE YOU GUYS/LADIES reading my review? You should be BUYING THIS GAME and playing it RIGHT NOW! My review is very simple.. the graphics are...REALISTIC AND PHENOMENAL! The story is EPIC, the gameplay is legendary, the missions are fun, and there is just so much innovation in this game. The Microtransactions are not the GREATEST idea in the world but at least it is not FORCED upon gamers unlike some games (EA). This game is going to force GAME COMPANIES to work a lot harder on their titles because NOW they have some serious competition! So take ALL of your previous GTA games and just sell them, throw them away or store them away becasue GTA V is all you need everyone! SO WHAT ARE YOU STILL DOING HERE??? BUY THIS GAME NOW!!!! 10/10!! And WHO HAS THE BALLS.... TO RATE THIS MASTERPIECE LOWER THAN A 10?? Oh and Saints Row IV... BEWARE!!… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Amazing game! Anyone that says otherwise is clearly lying... Great game, lots to do, you'll never run out of stuff to do.
Definitely getting it again for PS4, can't wait till GTA Online
Sep 17, 2013The best game ever created, the city is perfect, it's as if the game continued even with the console off, I venture to say that this is the best game ever made, congratulations ROCKSTAR GAMES
Sep 18, 2013First of all, the main reason this game is getting over 100 negative user reviews is probably because of PC "master racers" who are pissed that for once the consoles got this GLORIOUS game before they did (to them, I say get over it; you'll get a half assed PC port soon enough that you can mod the living daylights out of eventually. Shut up and let us enjoy our 360s and PS3s for once without you all over yourselves). That said, this is also one of the few times I'd give a game a perfect score: there is so much to do in this game, there is so much detail in this world and every single object in it (buildings, cars, people, the writing; it just goes on), and I've yet to find a single activity that I haven't enjoyed (aside from a slightly annoying GPS and menu system). Is for mature audiences? Yes. Is used so often in conversation that white people are going to have to retrain themselves for when it's acceptable to use that word? OH yes. Is it also something that demands your respect, and that you can tell Rockstar poured their souls into making it as good as possible? YES. And with GTA Online coming two weeks from the original release (and time of writing), I highly doubt that gamers are going to stop talking about this anytime soon.… Expand
Sep 19, 2013The best GTA game so far. From going underwater to starting a business to endless pedestrian killing, this game never loses fun and is a legend in sandbox gaming.
Sep 17, 2013"pc" holes. I've got to say I've been enjoying every single piece of GTA 5 so far. Radios take me back, once I found Groove Street I could guide myself through the entire city and the new mechanics are amazingly improved comparing to GTA IV which in my opinion was really overrated.
Sep 17, 2013With most things in life, the anticipation exceeds the actual enjoyment of the experience. I knew coming into the game, that must be true here as well. Damn was I wrong. This game exceeds every expectation I had, in spades. GTA 5 is a true masterpiece in every sense of the word. It's hard to describe such an experience with words. It's a game you really have to play just to get an idea of how awesome it really is. It's everything you ever wanted an open world game to be and then some. Every aspect of the game from driving to flying to just walking around is fun and thoroughly enjoyable. If you had your doubts, rest assured its every bit as good as it was hyped up to be. And that's saying a lot.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Rockstar has done it again. I will definitely be buying all the DLC and playing this amazing game for months to come. I'm not sure why there are so many low reviews but I guess haters gotta hate
Sep 18, 2013After playing this game for 10 minutes i couldnt help but fondle my nuts. Me and ma boi Jow also known as hottdawg hit up da streetz itz da 1 tym. If you like Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance, you will love this game. Fantastic local couch play with 1-4 players. Its nice to find another game in this genre combining the local co-op again. So much loot and monsters to kill; its never ending fun
Sep 18, 2013Simply the best game on this generation. Its so much fun to play this game, it never gets boring and you can do everything and anything! Best GTA ever, and probably the best game ever. You just must have it! There's no better time than this to use the word masterwork: Rockstar did a colossal job creating a huge, visually stunning world chiseled in its finest details, populated by brilliant characters and with highly spectacular and varied gameplay. the city is spectaular and massive it would take solid days to explore, i just cant stress enough how amazing this game is, five years well spent i say!… Expand
Sep 18, 2013This game is so freaking good. Its pathetic of some people to rate this game low because it's not on pc yet, basically they havent played it. I will get this game on pc if it makes its way onto it however it is not a reason to rate it low.
Sep 18, 2013This game is absolutely phenomenal. If you thought GTA IV was an amazing game, you'll think GTA V is an absolute masterpiece. The GTA world in this game is huge and never ending. I swear you could drive for hours and hours at a time and still have plenty of areas to explore. I have played GTA V for about 20 hours total and I have yet to even scratch the surface of this game.
Sep 18, 2013Absolutely amazing gameplay, story is great and gameplay in Los Santos last forever it seems and this is all in just single player, I can't wait for the online portion to come out. Great Game Rockstar!!! Worth every penny!!
Sep 17, 2013The transmission between the characters is well made, the city and the surroundings look absolutely stunning, the story line is compelling. Gta V simply is one amazing game!
Sep 17, 2013Is the GTA most comprehensive of all and the best yet, a video game made to dismiss this generation of consoles, the best game of this generation, a masterpiece.
Sep 17, 2013If you're worried that this might be another over-hyped release of a sub-par product, coasting on the success of its big-name predecessors as is all too common these days you can rest easy: if you like any of the previous GTAs, you will love this. It has everything it should and more, taking the best elements of the core mechanics and plot from GTA 4 and re-adding (and improving further) the vast array of peripheral activities and huge non-linear world to get lost in.
And if you're new to the series, this is a great game in its own right. At it's core, it's just really fun to play, whether you're driving around the countryside aimlessly or getting sucked into one of the many, varied plot strands.
All of the mechanics and graphics have been polished to death. I actually can't imagine a game looking better on the Xbox, and the physics feel like a hyper-fun version of reality, which is exactly as it should be. It's super-accessible with just the right dash of realism to keep it grounded.
There are too many features and improvements to describe in full here, but in a nutshell:
- Really fun core mechanics.
- Gorgeous, huge, painstakingly crafted world to explore
- Absorbing plots and varied missions
- Ridiculous number of sub-games, tasks and activities, woven seamlessly into the core game
- Genuinely funny, satirical undertone to everything
At time of posting this has a user score of 8.0, which is criminally low for a game which is about as good as I can imagine there being on the Xbox. Wanting a PC release because you know this is a good game is not a reason to give this 0/10 in the Xbox section, dummy.… Expand
Sep 18, 2013Anyone that is giving this game a poor score is a complete deluded hipster, this game is an absolute masterpiece and i've only been playing it for one day!! It looks amazing, it's so funny, some of the videos had me in stitches especially lamar. The cars drive properly and everywhere you go there is something going on it feels like a real world. Hats off to rockstar for not selling themselves out with false promises becuase this delivers on every aspect.… Expand
Sep 17, 2013Look at all these butthurt pc gamers. Anyone who has played the game knows its a 10/10. You can all go cry and play Watch dogs while we play the superior game.
Sep 17, 2013This is by far the best of all the GTAs. driving is smoother more responsive, shooting is somewhat improved the reticle could've been thought out a little more. I think the map should of been transparent and blown up in the top middle of the screen when driving, so you can focus on your driving. Awesome game.
Sep 17, 2013(both versions) GTA has plenty of issues with the pop-in textures and clipping texture quality during its cut scenes. The draw distance is of an issue on both consoles however its good that the detail in terms of shapes are still in tact. This definitely shows the limitations of the current gen consoles and is by far the reason we need the next to come out.
It is these reasons why this game does not deserve a perfect 10 much like the last of us, there are problems in the game which should never be overlooked when reviewing a game regardless if you love the game or not… Expand
Sep 19, 2013This is a 10 rating to balance out the idiotic 0 star reviews from jealous PC users. Go win some hats in TF2 and piss off with your unfair reviews. Game gets a 10 obviously, best game of the year.
Sep 17, 2013This game is by far the best of the GTA-games. It's BIG world, play area or what you want to call it is enormous. Great story, even if it isn't that originell... but I guess it's quite hard to think of something that hasn't been done before. Everything is cliché today.
One truly must laugh at the sheer volume of collected butthurts this butthurt trap has caught. User trolls galore. There is a guy writing the same review word for word with a few minor changes on seperate accounts just to downrank the games user score. I assure you trolls, this game won't be brought down by the same technique that brought others down. There are far more supporters of this game than there are thumbsucking PC gamers who didn't get the game. Sucks for you guys though LOL. anyway, this game is so far fantastic. So much more bright than gta 4 More variety a better characters, just better. Amazing. Hilarious. Buy it.… Collapse
Dec 12, 2013Grand Theft Auto V offers one of the best sandbox experiences ever, filled to the brink with stuff to do. The vistas are magnificent and amazing stuff just seems to happen wherever you go. But at the same time the story is tired and the characters unoriginal. Your appreciation of Grand Theft Auto V will depend of what you want out of the series. The freedom and joy of discovery is hard to beat but the rest still has some ways left to go.
Nov 6, 2013GTA V continues the game series' tradition of raising the bar for open world action games.
Nov 5, 2013Tons of gameplay hours, plenty of missions and activities with an awesome collection of vehicles of various modes of transportation and a large array of firearms put the grandeur once again into Grand Theft Auto.

I'd be pleased for any help on this.
I'm not totally new to Digital photography but am bemused by a setting on my S95. I have set the camera to max file size/quality on Jpeg only (i.e not RAW + Jpeg) but although it's said to take 10Mg images I rarely get a file larger than 1 mg currently, mostly far smaller even in strong sunlight. Strangley, when I used the camera for the first few weeks it usually took images around 2.0-2.5 Mg, never higher. It's true I've played with the settings a lot but I can't figure out why files are so small. Am I limiting the quality I can achive with the S95? or is it just packing lots of detail in a small file size ? Any ideas on settings are very welcome.

Pizza Bianco last night ... Home made crust brushed with olive oil that I'd added finely minced fresh rosemary to, topped with bocconcini, marinated artichokes (hello, Spring). Prosciutto and baby spinach added after base was cooked

Last night I made pizza (again) from scratch. Base was brushed with OO, sprinkled with finely minced fresh parsley, anchovies, very finely grated lemon zest and chilli flakes. Topped calamari, and finely sliced buffalo mozzarella. When cooked drizzled with lemon-infused OO, sprinkled with sliced chillies, extra parsley and pangratatto. Salad on the side. Seriously yummy!

Real Name
Austin Mattelson
Date of Birth
October 3, 1985
Place of Birth
There are reports floating around right now that the reason why AJ Lee was not chosen to be a cast member on Total Divas is because she is married to CM Punk. However, she has repeatedly stated in the past that she was not interested in doing a reality television show. She enjoys her privacy and prefers to focus on being a wrestler. Management recently added Alicia Fox and Paige to the series.
October 21, 2014
The expanding cast of Total Divas will include Alicia Fox next season. WWE has decided to include as many of their female performers as possible on the show, and Alicia was quite willing to sign up for the reality television show. For a lot of the girls, the hope is that the extra exposure will help them build up their name value for when they eventually leave the company and pursue other things.
October 20, 2014
The movie roles keep coming in for the Rock. The former WWE star revealed through social media that he will be starring in the big screen version of Baywatch. Reports are saying that the movie will not be based directly on the characters on the television show and will involve a lot more comedy. Minor roles are being written for David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson, should they decide to accept the parts.
October 3, 2014
Some very interesting news coming out of a wrestling convention in Charlotte last month. Jim Duggan revealed to fans in attendance that he and Roddy Piper were working on getting a reality television show for themselves. Quite a lofty goal for the WWE legends, as there probably is not a whole lot of network executives who are interested in such a show.
September 29, 2014
While the future of Impact Wrestling is in question because a deal with Spike TV cannot be reached, TNA is still continuing to churn forward. The company is filming a new television show called TNA Legends, and it is being hosted by Jeremy Borash, who is seemingly the most versatile person backstage. No word yet on where this show will be airing, but it will be on television somewhere.
September 14, 2014
On Monday Night Raw, many witnessed a brilliant publicity stunt that WWE launched when they invited Michael Sam, an openly gay football player who is trying to find an NFL team this season, to make an appearance on their television show next week. Stephanie McMahon has made another move to secure that deal by writing an open letter to the defensive end, calling him a hero.
September 2, 2014
There is a growing sense of optimism towards Jeff Jarrett and Global Force Wrestling. Some feel that he might have found a formula that can draw in a good amount of viewers. The belief is that GFW will showcase wrestling matches from around the world. Jarrett might even bring in international performers from time to time to showcase them on the television show that he is trying to put together.
August 11, 2014
It looks like WWE will be utilizing the relationship between Cameron and her boyfriend a bit more during the next season of Total Divas. The belief is that something drastic will happen, where the couple will either break up or do a wedding. The heel turn and split from Naomi Knight was designed to put more attention into her character on the reality television show next season.
July 28, 2014
The big brawl between Naomi Knight and Cameron that you witnessed on Monday Night Raw this week was indeed the big breakup that has been teased over the last couple of weeks by WWE. As many already know, this story was set up for the sake of Total Divas, as producers wanted more dramatic stories for the reality television show. Since it is involved with another network, the belief is that WWE will get behind the story and put some emphasis on it.
July 9, 2014
A couple of days ago, it was revealed that Dixie Carter and company would do a big announcement in London. A lot of speculations floated around, including the possibility of doing an overseas tournament there. However, signs are pointing to a new television show instead for TNA. It would be designed specifically for their fans in England and the surrounding areas.
July 3, 2014
Despite creating a buzz online with fans, Cody Rhodes had his Stardust character omitted by WWE during the company's broadcast of Monday Night Raw on Hulu. Every week, management decides which segments are important enough to include on that version of their television show. Rumors have it that WWE does not deem Rhodes and Goldust as a high priority at the moment.
June 17, 2014
During a recent interview, Vince Russo revealed that he does not watch Monday Night Raw. The former WWE writer stated that it was not because of any backstage heat that he has towards the company. Russo simply stated that it is difficult for him to sit through three hours straight of a television show. He even stated that it was difficult for him to watch his favorite baseball team for three straight hours.
June 3, 2014
Despite doing a good job of generating interest from fans the last time around, Tough Enough was put on the shelves. Now, it appears that the reality television show is being brought back as part of the WWE Network. No word yet on the involvement of Steve Austin, but since he did such a great job last time, management should be quite interested in bringing him back again as the host.
May 1, 2014
In a sign that he still holds some value to the network, Eric Young has been given another television show. This time, it is called No Limits, and it is supposed to be a continuation of his Off the Hook: Extreme Catches show. Young will be going around the country, and trying out various extreme activities, such as learning how to be a lumberjack in the Smoky Mountains.
April 28, 2014
While he did make a brief appearance during Wrestlemania 30 week, Shawn Michaels is expected to be gone from WWE for the time being. The former world heavyweight champion will be focusing his energy on his television show and various promotional appearances for the time being. There are talks that he could be brought back for Summerslam 2014 to help with promotions, but that is not confirmed yet.
April 24, 2014
In a rather nice win for his new Global Force Wrestling, Jeff Jarrett has revealed that he has signed a production deal with 25/7 Productions and Dave Broome, the man that created the popular Biggest Loser reality television show on NBC. Together, they are currently shopping a wrestling show around to the networks and hope to land a television spot soon.
April 15, 2014
The big story line coming out of Total Divas this week is John Cena purchasing a house for Nikki Bella. The couple was the centerpiece of the reality television show earlier when Cena refused to marry Nikki, prompting wrestling fans to wonder if they were going to break up. Since Brie Bella got married to Daniel Bryan, Cena has to figure out ways to keep Nikki happy.
April 13, 2014
A picture of WWE stars on the set of the Soup, a popular television show that makes fun of current events. Titus ONeil, JBL, Michael Cole, Jerry Lawler, Dolph Ziggler, Nikki Bella and Brie Bella were recently guests on an episode.
April 12, 2014
As a few of you already know, Chuck Palumbo now has his own television show, where the former WCW star talks visits car lovers across the country. Scott Armstrong, his good friend, posted this special message on Twitter to congratulate Palumbo on his new business venture.
March 24, 2014
A video segment from Total Divas, where Nikki Bella losers her tooth during a match against Tamina Snuka. The situation was a complete accident, but WWE opted to take advantage of the situation and add a little bit of dramatic flair to their reality television show.
March 24, 2014
WWE has quietly released Judas Devlin, a developmental wrestler who was supposed to have been called up to the main roster to join Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan in the Wyatt Family stable. He has been removed from the official roster page for WWE NXT.
January 26, 2014
There were some serious speculations recently that Judas Devlin was going to be brought up by WWE from developmental to join the Wyatt Family, but a serious injury, one that might end his career, has forced a change of plans.

Dan K's InfernoDAN KRISCH, The Connecticut Law Tribune
Dan Krisch: One Of Conn.'s Greatest Justices Hangs Up Her Robes
I am paying fond tribute to a mentor. Late last month, former Connecticut Chief Justice Ellen Peters announced her retirement after nearly four decades as an appellate jurist. As is her wont, Justice Peters was self-effacing at her retirement ceremony – she mainly spoke about the influence on her career of two of her colleagues, former Justices Robert Glass and David Shea – so I will boast a bit on her behalf:
What's being said
Excellent article Dan. Agreed, Justice Peters is among the finest appellate jurists Connecticut has the privilege to know and have.
Nice job Dan. A fitting testimonial to a great jurist.

Balakirev: Symphonies & Symphonic Poems
CDD22030 2CDs Dyad (2 for the price of 1)
Movement 1: Largo Allegro vivo
Movement 2: Scherzo: Vivo Poco meno mosso
Movement 3: Andante
Movement 4: Finale: Allegro moderato Tempo di Polacca
The first movement, Allegro vivo, is preceded by an introductory Largo which contains the seeds of the whole movement, for both the first and second subjects of the Allegro are derived from it. While ostensibly in sonata form, the continuous development of the scintillating material is a feature of Balakirev's style, and the mosaic patterns burgeon in all directions without adhering to strict formal rigidities, culminating in a final apotheosis in the guise of an augmentation of all the parts, accompanied by fresco-like diminutions of themselves.
The substantial Scherzo originally intended for this symphony was later included in Balakirev's second symphony; because of the length of the other movements, the Scherzo here is much more pithy, ideally suited to its place in the scheme. An atmosphere of mystery surrounds the first subject, and the second, announced by the cor anglais—very prominently used throughout the symphony—twists and turns within itself in sinuous fashion. A central, slightly slower, trio section is tinged with bitter-sweetness.
The slow movement is a gorgeous poetic nocturne in D flat major, a rich key of which Balakirev was particularly fond. It only gradually unfolds itself, revealing ever new facets of the two principal subjects in the sonata-rondo structure, very unusual for a slow movement.
It breaks off in harp arpeggios which lead directly into the Finale, a superb symphonic study in rhythm based on three Russian folksongs. The first ('Sharlatarla from Partarla') was given to Balakirev by Rimsky-Korsakov, whose uncle Petr Petrovich had sung it to him as a boy. The second, starting with a reiterated note on the clarinet, had been sung to the composer, when he was travelling third class on the Finnish railway, by a blind beggar who accompanied himself on an old harp which was out of tune, afterwards passing round his hat. This virile tune has hardly any melody to speak of, but is an ideal vehicle for Balakirev's overflowing vitality. The third folksong possesses rhythmic punch of an unusual nature: the main accent is on the fourth beat, and the rest of the tune seems to work away from this beat, an accent on the penultimate note of the phrase being the only other discernible stress. Its initial rhythmic bite is enhanced by the melody's being allotted to the cellos in their upper register, only one of the masterstrokes of orchestration employed by Balakirev. The folksongs, sufficiently different to be easily distinguishable, are contrasted and combined in a kaleidesope of sound, bringing to an end a symphony which is full of subtle touches and profound inventiveness.

Rachel Nania, wtop.com
WASHINGTON - Twenty years ago, restaurant partners Rob Wilder and Roberto Alvarez convinced a 23-year-old chef to help them launch a new restaurant in downtown D.C.
At the time, Wilder and Alvarez had big dreams of opening a tapas restaurant in the District -- and the young chef, Jose Andres, dreamed of bringing innovative Spanish cuisine and culture to American tables.
On April 5, 1993, the three restaurateurs opened Jaleo, a restaurant dedicated to traditional Spanish tapas and small plates, in Penn Quarter.
"We decided we found our great chef and future partner," says Rob Wilder, CEO and founding partner of Jaleo. Wilder explains that prior to coming to D.C., Andres spent time traveling around the country, but was not tied to a specific city or restaurant.
At the time, Wilder, Alvarez and Andres were stepping into a new territory with Jaleo's tapas menu. Very few restaurants were serving small plates -- a style of dining that is now much more common.
"We weren't the only ones doing tapas. There were a couple of outposts around and some places in New York. Really, the place where tapas were first embraced in the U.S. was in Chicago," Wilder explains. "But Jaleo really did help to accelerate and transform the idea of tapas."
Similar to Jaleo's transformation of traditional Spanish food, the restaurant also helped to transform D.C.'s downtown dining scene.
"It was transitional downtown in the early 90s," Wilder says. "Now the area is a beautiful mix. But it was abandoned when we opened in 1993. Some people were scared to come out and eat."
Wilder says Jaleo's early success can be attributed to Andres' culinary talent and the internal organizational structure of the restaurant. Now, Jaleo employees around 800 people in the D.C. area, alone.
Andres was also able to flex his creativity during his first years in D.C. at Alvarez's other restaurant, Cafe Atlantico, where he experimented with a wide range of cuisines.
The national press began to take notice of Andres' accomplishments. He won the James Beard Foundation's award for Best Chef of the Mid-Atlantic Region in 2003. In 2011, Andres added to his recognition with the James Beard Foundation's Outstanding Chef Award.
Wilder says the most famous dishes at Jaleo are the classic ones, including the garlic shrimp and the chicken croquetas.
"It's the ABCs of comfort food in Spain," he says.
Jaleo has three locations in the Washington area, including one in Bethesda, Md. and one in Arlington, Va. Jaleo is also in The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.
As for the future, Wilder says he plans to focus on two things.
"We want to keep creating and innovating," he says.
Wilder also hopes expand the restaurant to other parts of the county, and possibly the world.

I love the color and except for it fitting it a little more snugly than I would like it's fine.
Love the jacket as it is comfy, has plenty of pockets for skiing and the fit and color I loved! I wore it skiing with temps down to negative 18 degrees and stayed warm.
This is a great jacket. When I first ordered it I received one with the buttons broken off, but I sent it back and within a week I received a new jacket! Free of defects! The jacket is very warm. I've worn it a few times skiing this year and I stayed warm and dry. This jacket looks great and has a great fit.
Skiied yesterday at Mammoth Mountain in very wet snow and very windy! This jacket kept me warm and dry and looking very fashionable! I love Scott products!
I ordered this beautiful ski jacket for my 16 year old daughter's birthday present. The color is vibrant, the detailing superb and the fit excellent.
