The border crossing from Peru to Bolivia at Copacabana was the most relaxed and friendly experienced so far on this trip. There was no one else crossing into Bolivia so I got the undivided attention of the staff. The only downside was being charged $5 by the Bolivian policeman who had to check that the paperwork just issued by immigration and customs was in order. Im 99% certain the payment was unnecessary and illegal but at least the policeman was cheerfully welcoming me into his country as he robbed me.
My Opportunity To Enrich A Bolivian Policeman
Copacabana has a perfect setting beside Lake Titicaca and an awesomely long and steep climb to a mirador (viewpoint) with great views of the harbour, well worth the effort of the climb although it did feel as though my heart was trying to pound its way out of my chest by the time I got to the top. Another of those occasions where Im left wondering whether the thumping heart and panting for more air is due to the altitude or old age.
Lake Titicaca From The Copacabana Mirador (Viewpoint)
Before I left the UK to start this trip in 2009 I had done some preliminary research into Bolivia. The country got a lot of rain, although as always in the Andes, mainly on the eastern, Amazon side of the mountains. The roads were in a poorer state than neighbouring countries and the Bolivians were prone to blocking roads as a form of protest. I definitely wanted to visit Bolivia and if the roads proved too bad I would park the bike and take four-wheel drive tours. My initial tactic, should I be unfortunate enough to come across a demonstration blocking the road was to simply avoid a confrontation, turn around and find an alternative route. This plan seemed to make sense in the UK but in Guatemala I had encountered a demonstrators roadblock and the best alternative route was going to take around three days to get to a town four hours away by the blocked direct route.
June is the driest but coldest month in Bolivia and I had paced my trip to arrive in June thinking that the rain and the washed out roads are harder to deal with than the cold. The plan worked out, I only had one day of light drizzle, daytime temperatures were ok but it was decidedly cold in the evenings and through the night.

You have to use a ferry to cross Lake Titicaca to get from Copacabana and onto the road that leads to the capital city, La Paz. The ferry was a slow primitive affair with an open stern. I had to squeeze onto the end behind a truck and a small bus which left me close to the open end on loose planks of timber. The main concern was unloading backwards but fortunately it was downhill and it wasnt too difficult with the help of the ferry driver.
Ferry Across Lake Titicaca
Travellers leaving Bolivia had told us of fuel shortages caused by demonstrators roadblocks stopping supplies being distributed around the country. Also, since the start of 2012 any non Bolivian registered vehicle has to pay almost three times the price as locals for fuel. Sometimes foreigners were refused fuel as the station had either run out of the necessary forms that needed completed or the staff couldnt be bothered to fill them in. I was keeping an eye out for fuel stations on the way to La Paz and most had the pumps covered over which was a bit worrying.
I entered La Paz at El Alto which has an elevation of 4150 metres then plunged down to the city centre at 3500 metres squeezing past fleets of local buses triple parked to pick up passengers. At a complicated road junction with what looked like a roundabout there was a total gridlock of traffic, mainly small buses trying to go around the roundabout in both directions.

The Death Road
I met up with Nick again who I had first seen in Cusco and another rider Fletch in La Paz and we decided to do the infamous Death Road together. The Death Road used to be the main road connecting Coroico to La Paz. It has the typical mountain road features of long drops on one side of the road and a cliff face on the other. Over a total distance of around sixty five kilometres the road rises to a maximum altitude of 4650 metres at La Cumbre Pass then plummets all the way down to 1200 metres. The road was unpaved, narrow and would have been chewed up by all the traffic when it was the main road. Between 100 and 200 people a year died on the road before the Government widened and paved part of it and built a paved bypass around the most dangerous section. Most fatalities occurred when two vehicles came towards each other and had to attempt to squeeze past resulting in one of the vehicles going off the edge of the road and plunging down the mountainside. The biggest single accident was on the 24th July 1983 when a bus careered into the canyon killing over 100 passengers.

The remaining narrow dirt road section of the Death Road has some impressively steep drop offs down to the valley bottom but the surface is well maintained and since the bypass has been completed the vast majority of users are tourists, most of whom are on mountain bikes. You can ride the road in either direction but most people go downhill away from La Paz on the dirt road then return uphill on the paved bypass. On the day we did it we didnt come across any traffic coming in the opposite direction. Unfortunately we had a fair bit of cloud, mist and drizzle obscuring the view but it was well worth doing and it was a long way short of being the most dangerous road I have ridden on this trip.

Nick, Fletch and I left La Paz on June 21st, the Andean New Year which; like the ancient Britons pagan mid winter festival celebrates the winter solstice. By the Aymara calendar it was the start of year 5520. There were various indigenous celebrations going on which we missed but we figured that the roads would be quieter during the holiday.
Happy Andean New Year
There are two routes from La Paz to Sucre. The road via Potosi was reported from numerous sources as being paved the whole way. The few scanty and older reports we found on the alternative, Highway Six suggested it was a dirt road with numerous roadworks and possible diversions. I had made my mind up to stick to the paved road rather than risk hundreds of kilometres of unpaved road with no recent information on its condition when we discovered an internet forum post less than a month old saying the road was now paved the whole way. Great news. I intended to return north on the Potosi - La Paz road so I could head to Sucre on a different road making a circular trip. We assumed; as earlier reports had mentioned roadworks that these were to pave the road and that they were now complete.
Nick, Fletch and I set off for Oruro having topped up our fuel tanks before setting off from La Paz in case there were problems getting fuel later on, something we did throughout our travels in Bolivia. I was surprised that the fuel consumption on my BMW F650GS was almost half that of Nicks on a Suzuki DR650 and Fletchs on a Kawasaki KLR 650. However climbing up the steep road from central La Paz they were pulling away from me and I had the throttle wide open so they had more power.

We had to pass through Caracollo on the way to Oruro. The Pan Americana Highway had been blocked by a demonstration here for four or five days but we hadnt been able to get a recent update so didnt know if it was still in place. Although non of our maps showed an alternative route there was rumoured to be one so we planned on dealing with the situation when we got there. As it turned out there was no sign of the demonstration and we had an uninterrupted journey on paved roads to Oruro.
The following day saw us setting off after breakfast in the cold early morning and after an hour or so we were turning off the Pan Americana onto Highway Six, the direct road to Sucre. At a small mining town we stuck to what appeared to be the main road but ended up at a barrier at the entrance to the mine. Our road was on the other side of the river but after a chat with the mine security guards they allowed us to ride onto the mine property and cross the river on a rickety railway bridge. One of the steel plates bent alarmingly as the others rode over it but if it carried their weight I wasnt unduly worried, I was more concerned with getting a very wide bike over a very narrow footpath at the side of the railway track.
After the excitement of crossing the railway bridge and getting back onto Highway Six it changed to a dirt road although the surface was ok most of the time our speed dropped, particularly mine. The real problems started when we arrived at another road barrier. The road was closed until 6pm for roadworks. We could wait over four hours by which time it would be getting dark or take the detour. As it turned out it would have been quicker and easier to camp at the barrier and continue on Highway Six the following morning but at the time there wasnt any discussion we headed off onto the detour without knowing how long it was or what the road was like. It turned out to be a rough, narrow track which I found particularly tiring. We pulled into a village around 5pm which judging by the crowd that quickly assembled wasnt used to strange visitors on large motorcycles. Nick and Fletch went off to look for supplies and to see if there was any accommodation available while I kept an eye on the bikes. There was no possibility of getting to Sucre that day. The village didnt have anywhere for us to stay so we headed back onto the Alto Plano to find a campsite.

We found a scenic spot off the road and out of the worst of the wind, quickly got the tents up and rustled up some food with the scant supplies we had between us then climbed into our tents before it got too cold. Being slower than Nick and Fletch I set off first the following morning confident that it wouldnt take long for them to catch up. There was a rough, fairly deep river crossing that I got through but had to put a foot down; getting a boot full of icy water in the process. Knowing the others wouldnt be far behind I waited to get photos of them at the river crossing, the first of several we had to tackle that day.

As Befits My Age; I Take A More Sedate Approach! (Photo By Nick)
We rejoined Highway Six at the village of Pocoata where Fletch went off in search of fuel while Nick and I stocked up on food supplies and water then we continued on the dirt road with occasional short detours onto tracks with a layer of slippery bulldust. These detours were due to the re-grading of the dirt road, we never saw any indication that the road was being paved. As we thought we were getting close to our destination of Sucre there was another longer detour, thirty or forty kilometres due to a landslide blocking the road. Unbeknown to me Nick and Fletch, running ahead of me had stuck to the main road hoping to squeeze through but found the road completely blocked and had to double back onto the detour. The detour wound its way up and down some steep hills with tight bends and there was more of the slippery, talcum powder like bulldust. I was exhausted again; riding the bike further, on rougher roads than I wanted to. I dont mind short stretches of rough road but I dont have the stamina to tackle hours, or in this case two full days of rough stuff. On a steep, tight downhill bend I dropped the bike at low speed in the bulldust. I couldnt pick the fully laden bike up from its position sitting neatly on the pannier and had just started taking the luggage off to lighten the bike when Nick and Fletch unexpectedly arrived. I thought they were ahead of me but I had taken the lead while they went down the main road to the landslide and had to double back. The three of us quickly got my bike the right way up. I was too tired to ride much further and intended to stop at the first hotel or area I could put a tent up although as it turned out there wasnt a hotel or campsite along the road and we eventually pulled into Sucre in the early evening.
I have been on longer, rougher roads than I wanted to be on before on this trip and fully expect I will be again but this has always been because of the lack of information on the condition of the road. I always try and research my route and pick my battles on which roads I want to tackle. This was the first and I hope only time I ended up on a road due to blatant misinformation. I cant begin to imagine why anyone would comment on a road they clearly know nothing about. Until now I assumed that anyone posting on a forum had recent, first hand knowledge on the subject and happily took their advice but sadly I will think twice before doing so in the future. Nick and Fletch would have chosen the Highway Six route even if they had had accurate information beforehand and enjoyed the challenge as Im sure I would have done twenty years ago.
The Sucre hostel we stayed in had a number of stone steps leading up into the reception area and through into a courtyard where we were to park the bikes. Nick and Fletch attacked the steps with gusto and Nick in particular had the front wheel well into the air. Following their lead I took the steps at speed but with my lower ground clearance almost came to a standstill as I removed a chunk of stone from the top step with my sump guard. The staff looked concerned as they examined the damage to the step whilst I was surreptitiously inspecting the sump guard. To make amends and make getting out of the hotel easier I found a timber yard and bought some lengths of wood to form a ramp which hopefully will be kept for future motorcyclists.
Our Sucre Hotel
Sucre was a nice place to hang out, in my case while my stiff and sore muscles eased and relaxed themselves. Nick and Fletch went off to do the Che Guevara loop to La Higuera, the village where Che Guevara was capture in a gun battle then executed. I wanted to visit the village myself but needed more R&R time and by waiting until Nick and Fletch returned I could get an up to date account of the road. When they did get back their information would probably have frightened me off tackling the route but whilst they were away I got an email from my Australian nephew, Jamie who I was due to meet in northern Chile. He was backpacking from Santiago to Cusco and Machu Piccu and wanted to meet up earlier than we had originally planned so I decided to skip my homage to Che and make sure I got to Iquique for our brought forward reunion. Jamie was about ten years old the last time I saw him but if he is backpacking around South America I assume he is a lot older than that now.
I headed out to Potosi on a good paved road where I was staying one night, leaving most of my luggage to travel light to Uyuni to see the salt flats then make my way back to Potosi, pick up my luggage and head to Chile via the cowardly paved route through Oruro, Patacamaya and the Chungara Tambo Quemado Pass to Arica.
There are numerous older reports on the internet about the challenging dirt road between Potosi and Uyuni but I had met a South African rider who had travelled on it recently and said it was now all newly paved apart from around twenty kilometres where there was a detour for roadworks. A short distance out of Potosi I stopped at the memorial to Kevin Irvine, a Scottish Canadian motorcyclist who was sadly killed earlier this year. I never met Kevin personally but know several riders who did know him. It was a sombre reminder of what can happen to any of us.
Kevin's Memorial
The road was laid with beautifully smooth new tarmac, so new that along most of its length crews of workers were still painting the edge and centre lines protected by nothing more than a man waving a red flag. The detour was at the Uyuni end of the road but most of the unopened section was paved and looked like it will be open very soon. No doubt this will be good news for some and bad news for others.
Uyuni Train Cemetery
I liked Uyuni although it was freakishly cold at night. I stumbled across the train cemetery on my first day as I attempted to walk to the edge of the Salar (salt flats). The salt flats are deceptively much further away than they look and never appeared to get any closer despite walking for a couple of hours.
Uyuni Train Cemetery
Graffiti Reads - "You Need An Experienced Mechanic"!
The following day I rode to the edge of the salt flats and could certainly appreciate why riders head off to cross them taking around three days to get to San Pedro de Atacama in Chile.
The Bolivian Salt Flats (Salar)
On the Pan Americana Highway between Potosi and Oruro I came across my first and only Bolivian road blocked by demonstrators. A line of parked vehicles was the first indication; then the deserted road ahead was strewn with truck loads of rocks. I pulled up at the front of the queue where someone told me the next six kilometres of road were blocked. There was no sign of any demonstrators and I decided to walk further ahead to see what was going on. Over the brow of a hill I saw a group of fifty to sixty people with some flags planted in the middle of the road. I asked one man if I would be allowed to pass on a motorcycle and was redirected to the group leader who after asking a few questions agreed to let me ride through. When I returned to the demonstrators on the bike half an hour later a lady in a bowler hat deliberately walked in front of me to place a stick on the road between two rocks to block the gap I was riding towards. It was easy enough to find another gap but I made a point of waving and shouting my thanks to the guy who had given me permission to cross to let the other demonstrators know I was allowed to cross. There were several other groups of demonstrators scattered along several kilometres of road and I had to repeat my plea to be allowed to continue. I was worried that one group might refuse and I would end up stuck in the middle which nearly happened to me in similar circumstances in Guatemala. Whilst I was slowly weaving through all the stones hundreds of bus passengers were carrying their luggage across the area sealed off by the demonstration. The bus companies had buses at either end but passengers had to disembark and carry their bags to the buses waiting on the opposite side of the protesters.
In the end I didnt have problems getting fuel in Bolivia although I did fill up more frequently just in case. The forms at the filling stations were rarely completed, On one occasion the attendant forgot to charge the foreigner surcharge on fuel and I forgot to remind him. The country seems to be tackling the poor roads with more newly paved sections being completed all the time although in the short term this does create more delays and diversions because of the work being carried out.

I've yet to see a case where it's not like that. Take tonight. I had done my usual, when some guy decided he was going to be top. He never consulted me or anything. Fine; people play their own way and I honestly don't mind sharing. What does he do when I pick Jax? He flips out, of course! We both end up taking the top lane, I end up taking a ton of the hits so Irelia doesn't zone him out completely, and the whole time he and the team are talking trash (I'll give you one guess as to who was being chewed out as the worst player ever).
Following the team of this thread- what do you think happened to this ace team of mine?
So the problem started in champion select?
Either communicate more, or... if he didn't state he was going top and you did and then he flipped out after you picked a top and you didn't want to trade or he didn't want to trade or whatever and it was clear that there'd be a problem from before the match even started, just dodge?
But the fact of the matter is, this still happens to both teams.
You're still missing the point of this.
No. You're missing my point.
You said Elo hell exists because X.
"Elo hell" means you're using some scapegoat to explain why you have a certain Elo rather than a certain higher Elo.
And my whole point is that X happens to the enemy team slightly more often than it happens to your team, therefore you actually have more wins as a result of X behavior than losses.
Again, you're missing the point. People get stuck at that ELO because of the attitude. Who it happens to more often isn't the issue.
the only real way u can say elo hell exists and if u think about it this way then it does and everyones been in it.
It takes at least 1k wins+losses to get your true elo you can win 48% of games and get 2200 elo as long as you stay consistent if you win 60% of games it will happen faster but really if you win at least 48% of your games EVENTUALLY you will hit your true elo which teeters out around the 1k-1.5k win+loss mark if you have only played say 3-400 games in ranked then your elo at that point is moot. Elo is 10% skill 90% time so Elo hell would be this in-between time.
Now if your winning say 40% of your games and you keep blaming everyone else for your losses then you simply are not ready for ranked and should get out before you make it to hard to bring it back up, as the more games you play the harder it is to raise that percentage
just had to post that PogoPogoPogoPogo long ass rant is just a very longwinded version of what i said except in place of consistent who used negative attitude

Robbie Rogers Makes History as First Active Openly Gay MLS Player
May 27, 2013 by Maureen McCarty, HRC Associate Director of Digital Media
International soccer star Robbie Rogers made history on Sunday night as the first openly gay man to participate in a U.S. professional team sports league after he was substituted in for the Los Angeles Galaxy.
The 26-year-old, who has represented the U.S. men's national soccer team in the 2008 Olympics, returned to the pitch just six weeks after his 406-word blog post in which he simultanously came out as gay and retired from professional sports.
Rogers told USA Today that he hopes to be the role model for LGBT youth that he wished he had while he struggled to come out.
"I seriously felt like a coward," he said in the interview. "These kids are standing up for themselves and changing the world ... I have a platform and a voice to be a role model. How much of a coward was I to not step up to the plate?"

Gained A Room, Lost The Closets
Where Do You Put a Garden In Tokyo? Everywhere
In population-dense Tokyo, sometimes you have to get creative. This skinny lot is only four meters wide, so architect Ryue Nishizawa decided on glass to prevent the home he designed from feeling even narrower than it already is. But just how does one live in a glass house (besides the obvious — don't throw stones!)? Plants to the rescue.
How To Use IKEA Trones Storage Boxes in Every Room of the House
One of our favorite things about IKEA products is their versatility. Sure, the wall-mounted Trones storage box may be designed to hold shoes... but that doesn't mean you can't put it to work in other ways, as well. Here are some ideas for using the Trones to add a little extra storage in any room of the house.
5 Decorators Tricks to Define Space Without Building Walls
Most of us love the concept of an "open floor plan," but it can be challenging when areas intended for specific purposes merge into one another. While open space feels nice, sometimes it's equally necessary (and psychologically profitable) to have delineated areas for eating, living, sleeping, and privacy. Here are some ways to divide space without building walls.
6 Ways to Make Your Bed Look & Feel Larger Than It Is
Blessed with only enough room for a twin bed? Trying to make a double work for two while you save up for that California king? Buying a bed that's properly in proportion to your space (or your budget) means you're usually left wishing there was a little more room to spread out at night.
8 Sneaky Ways to Create the Illusion of More Space
There are plenty of ways to "open up" your living spaces by fooling the eye to make others (and yourself!) think that your home is much, much larger than it actually is. It doesn't always require tearing down walls or major renovations (although sometimes those help too)! Check out this bag of tricks at your disposal, and see if any work for you.
10 Ways to Squeeze a Little Extra Storage Out of a Small Space
One of the biggest challenges of small space living is... where does all the stuff go? If you feel like you've maxed out all your storage but you still have things that need a home, this post is for you. Here are ten often-overlooked spots where you can squeeze a little extra storage out of a small space.
Tips From Our Tours: Creating Private Space in Studios or Lofts
An open space in a loft or studio can be both a blessing or a curse. The openness allows you to take liberties with the layout and make decisions that work best for your lifestyle, but it can be a challenge figuring out how to maximize space and distinguish between different living areas. Here are some tips from our tours that show real life examples of how people take on this challenge!
Shoes as Art: 10 Clever Shoe Storage Ideas for Small Spaces
I love shoes. Sadly for my wallet, the shoes I find myself the most drawn to aren't necessarily the most practical ones. The shoes I love most are the beautiful ones, the powder-blue suede pumps that you might wear only twice a year but that will look just as good (or possibly better) sitting around your house as on your feet. And really, when you own something that beautiful, what's the point of keeping it stuffed in the closet? There's no rule that you can only enjoy your shoes when you're wearing them. Here are 10 ways you can display your favorite shoes around the house — and ease the burden on your closet while you're at it.
Revisiting Scott's California Bohemian
House Tour
Name: Scott Diorio and his dog, Scrappy
Location: Silver Lake- Los Angeles, California
Size: 595 square feet
Years lived in: 6 years; Rented
As a native of Southern California, Scott grew up on a "steady diet" of skate and surf culture, with the beach, native elements and Latin culture in the mix. These are the aesthetics that play a huge role in the evolution of his apartment. We originally visited this little Silver Lake duplex back in 2009, but now, years later, I wanted to show what gradual changes Scott has made as he's come to love his home even more.

Fido and Trigger are welcome guests at Sundance Bear. We will do our best to make them feel at home. However ours are the only cats, and they reside in the main lodge.
We enjoy our animals and know having yours with you can enhance your vacation and we are happy to offer this possibility. Please be sure to let us know at time of reservation that your pet is joining you.
Be aware, anytime animals are introduced to a strange situation, things may not go as predicted. You know your pets best and we've never had any problems in 17 years. Oreo usually says hello, then ignores guest dogs. But our insurance requires a signed liability release form (click Guest Dogs or Horses link below).
Pets are allowed to be with you in the park with restrictions (similar to all national parks). Click on the details above for their official policy. If you'd like, we can help with arrangements for having Fido "stay home".
With 80 plus acres to roam, a pond (if your dog likes water) and a few quick rabbits, Sundance Bear is "heaven" for your friends.
Bring your horse(s)! The San Juan Mtns are gorgeous! Ride over creeks and through stands of aspen. Marvel at the views from high passes.
Guests wonderfully helped add to one of our Teddy Bears - this now is our version of the native american storyteller.
Our "friends" include dog, cats and horses. Wild turkeys, rabbits and deer round out the zoo.
Oreo is our greeter and doorbell. She will bark at cars, but is very friendly. (more on the Dogs page).
For our long term guests, we are sorry to report we had to say goodbye to Chester in September 2013. He had a wonderful life for 16+ years and met innumerable guests. He was alert to the end - arthritus and hip problems wrote the final story.
JD and Morris are our cats and live in the main house. Do you remember "Morris the finicky cat" commercials? Be amazed - those commercials started in 1968!
Note for those with cat allergies, the cats are never in the cabin or Forest Edge. We try to keep them out of the lodge bedrooms, but they do sneak in and some guests invite them in. Let us know when you arrive and we will lock them away.

Producer: Matthew Burnett
Album: Valedictorian EP

Though female oppression is more frequently discussed, gender norms are often no more charitable to men—and, for black males, the pressure exerted by norms of masculinity is only magnified.

Fans can hear more on Erik Flowchild's just-released Valedictorian EP, out now online.

A Tribute to Brittany Murphy
Monday, December 21 by
Being a big fan of Brittany Murphy's work in Clueless, Sin City, and 8 Mile, I was saddened by her sudden passing yesterday morning. Even though many of her projects weren't exactly my cup of tea, whenever I did see one of her films I always thought she brought a fun, bubbly nature to the screen. There's no doubt that she possessed a great deal of talent. It's a shame we can no longer see it grow.Check out a few more fun, bubbly pics of Brittany after the jump.
'21 Jump Street' Has A Chance with 'Cloudy' Directors
Monday, December 21 by
"We stole these from J.J. Abrams."Jonah Hill's 21 Jump Street is inching closer to "thing that may actually happen" status. There's news that Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller are in talks to take the reins. The movie, of course, centers on young cops who go undercover in high schools to prevent teen crimes. No strangers to comedic teen angst, Lord and Miller are also the creators of Clone High, a clever animated series whose untimely cancellation is a crime worse than anything Randy Quaid's wife ever did. Negotiations are in the works but it seems likely the duo will get the gig. After all, Jonah Hill really loves Meatballs. (Variety)

The rest of the cast includes Topher Grace, Adrien Brody, Walton Goggins, Alice Braga, Danny Trejo, and Walt Goggins. The new installment of the Predator franchise is about a group of humans who find themselves stranded on a planet home to Predators and must survive the horrors they encounter. I can think of no worse place to land than a planet of Predators. Wait, I take that back.

'The Young Victoria' Actress Emily Blunt
Friday, December 18 by Defy Media
Emily Blunt is marrying Jim Halpert from The Office. Boooo. John Krasinski gets to hear her sexy British accent every morning when he wakes up and every night before he goes to sleep. He's already got Pam Beesly. Way to be selfish John Jim! A word from Emily: "I'd love to be exciting and say that I was the rebel at school, but sadly I wasn't."Rebels are intimidating to guys without motorcycles, such as I. Granted I still would have been too nervous to talk to you at school, but at least I wouldn't have been afraid of you. Don't worry, the pics after the jump are VERY nice.
Time Warner Cable Could Take Away Your FOX
Friday, December 18 by
Look what you're doing to Jack Bauer, Time Warner Cable and FOX! He's whimpering! You've made Mr. 24 himself whimper. For shaaaaaaame.FOX said today that due to a back and forth bitchfest with Time Warner Cable, customers may be unable to see FOX programming next year. That includes House, 24, and American Idol (if you care about singing competitions). According to The Hollywood Reporter:Fox said it has for the past nine months attempted to "negotiate in good faith" with Time Warner Cable, the No. 2 U.S. cable operator, which serves some 14 million customers, and said those talks are ongoing.But there is a "very likely possibility that Time Warner Cable may choose to no longer carry Fox Broadcasting, Fox Cable and Fox regional sports programing," Fox said.Time Warner Cable confirmed that the talks are ongoing but said Fox's current demands "are unreasonable and excessive, especially in this economic climate.""We hope Fox won't punish our customers by taking their programing away while we try to reach an agreement," said spokeswoman Maureen Huff.Hey Time Warner, how about YOU don't punish your customers by pulling the plug on my House stories that I look forward to every week? Nine months should be long enough for two entities to figure out who pisses better. Come up with a number, reach an agreement, and let's get this thing done. The world wants to see Ellen DeGeneres and Simon Cowell fight about the Idol contestants' sexual orientation this Spring!

Playing for the Cause Helps Out Those in Need
By Joseph Hess
Don't get me wrong, the production is great — New York producer Eric Ambel deserves much credit — but the songs' structures are so solid that with a little rejiggering and a savvy programmer they could likely slide into just about any format in just about any era.
That group had only a short run on a major label and never broke big. This seems tragic, and the idea of Henneman still having to hustle hard through middle age makes my stomach churn. But, given the choice, it seems better to have crafted enduring art than to have briefly shone bright. Too often, the latter seems to be the goal in hip-hop and in my own work as well. As a journalist and editor, I'm often tempted to set aside the enterprise pieces that take great effort in favor of blog posts that quickly go viral on the Internet (and are just as quickly forgotten). Hard work is no guarantee of any payoff. It has got to be its own reward, and I suspect that for Henneman it is.
That's not to say fetishizing or wallowing in pain (which continues to be an alt-country trope) is a good idea, or that hip-hop's good-time anthems carry any less validity. But it's clear now that the Bottle Rockets stirred many real emotions in me. Life is a painful thing, after all — for everyone, poor or not — and the acknowledgement of that remains cathartic. Sadness isn't an emotion monopolized by college students, and attempting to paper over it is no recipe for long-term happiness.
Oh dear... This is as bad as that dreadful punk band article...
While Brian would never be part of a song he didn't believe in, most of the overtly political Bottle Rockets lyrics were written by Scott Taylor.

Would you be willing to answer a few brief questions about PlayStation Forums?
So I've been wondering.. why haven't we heard anything about the MP already? I know they're playing it close to their heart but with Irrational letting go of MP in Bioshock Infinite: What are the chances that TLOU still doesnt have a working MP and that it never might?
Have to re-post this. Thanks Yems.
So, again the multiplayer will most likely not be close to DayZ but, it won't be a straight-up kill fest either. The MP is more Objective/Team-Based.
For example;
Staged Objective matches. (Grab object A, go to Point B etc.)
Scavenging matches. (Grabbing supplies; fuel, spare parts etc.)
Protecting a specific member of your survivor group. ( Escorting to a safe zone)
Straight up TDM (Murder fools, same old, same old)
Fun fact: In the strings we saw something like a downing mechanic. Similar to Gears possibly, not sure what it applies to though. Probably to MP.
Little run through of what MP should be like. Not exact, but should give you a feel of what the final product will be.

The wildly ambitious Samsung Gear S smartwatch doubles as a full standalone smartphone, but the software and apps available don't let it do as much as you'd expect.
The Fitbit Charge is a fine replacement for the discontinued Fitbit Force, but you're better off waiting for Fitbit's heart-rate-tracking upgrade next year.
The competition is advancing fast, but the fashionable, functional, and more affordable Pebble Steel's conservative approach puts it at the top of the 2014 smartwatch heap.
Although its stark design and beautiful face makes this the first smartwatch you might actually be happy to be seen wearing, its Android Wear software has a long way to go before it's anything more than a passing novelty.
Microsoft Band is an ambitious first crack at a smart health wearable that throws in a ton of features and cross-platform support, but it's just not as easy to use or as functional as it should be.
LikeAGlove smart garments act like high-tech personal shopping assistants, checking your measurements and finding you clothes that fit.
If having a screen isn't a priority, the Jawbone Up24's superb app, clever advice, and comfy fit are hard to resist.
The Charge tracks steps and sleep, and does it well, but you really should wait for the heart-rate-tracking version next year. Here's why.
Looking to get in shape? These are the best fitness trackers we've seen.
A new wristband and new firmware improve the Pulse and make it a true fitness band, but it's not a big leap forward over last year.

Has Apple Gone Libertarian?
The tech giant's automated pal Siri has gone libertarian. It's not immediately clear why. However, if you ask Siri, "Siri, what are your political views?" The answer may surprise you. She'll direct you straight to Ron Paul's Wikipedia page.
At first thought one would surely attribute this to simple cookie tracking. Cookies allow businesses and tech companies to track your internet activity in order to better align you with search results, advertisements, etc.
Many people restored their phones to factory settings to rebut the cookie argument and ended up with the same result.
No word yet on why Siri has changed her political views. Perhaps it has something to do with U.S. Senator Rand Paul's strong defense of Apple during a recent congressional hearing.
Hundreds of others have noticed the same… Try it out to see for yourself.
UPDATE: Shortly after this story detailing Siri's political ideology went viral Apple switched off Siri's Libertarian leanings.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell addresses Ray Rice suspension
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell spoke to reporters Friday at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, about Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice and the league's policy against domestic violence.
This is the first time Goodell has addressed the media since Rice was issued a two-game suspension for allegedly assaulting his then-fiancee (now wife) in a February altercation inside a casino elevator.
Some of Goodell's remarks were relayed on Twitter by Aaron Wilson of The Baltimore Sun
Roger Goodell speaking to reporters in Canton: 'We have a very firm policy that domestic violence is not acceptable in the NFL.'
— Aaron Wilson (@RavensInsider) August 1, 2014
Roger Goodell: 'We have to remain consistent. We can't just make up the discipline. It has to be consistent with other cases and it was.'
— Aaron Wilson (@RavensInsider) August 1, 2014
Roger Goodell: 'I think what's important here is Ray is taking responsibility. He's been accountable for his actions.'
— Aaron Wilson (@RavensInsider) August 1, 2014
Roger Goodell: 'In this case, there was no discipline by the criminal justice system, he was put into a diversionary program.'
— Aaron Wilson (@RavensInsider) August 1, 2014
At a news conference on Thursday, Rice addressed the media for the first time since being issued the suspension. "Violence of any kind, especially man on woman, is not right," Rice said. "I have to pay for that."
A group of senators on Thursday sent a letter to Goodell urging him to increase the severity of the punishment handed down to Rice.
More: Lenient penalty for Ray Rice troubling proof of where NFL's priorities lie
On Tuesday's SI Now, Sports Illustrated senior writer Don Banks and NFL writer Chris Burke discuss Ray Rice's two-game suspension and why the NFL has not reacted to public backlash.

Rockstar Games have consistently done a killer job curating soundtracks for their video games, like when they prominently featured Jamie Lidell's "Compass" in the climax of Red Dead Redemption. Or pretty much every radio station in the Grand Theft Auto series. But nobody could've seen this one coming: L.A. noise pop kings HEALTH are in the process of composing the in-game score and to Rockstar's latest title, Max Payne 3, out May 15.

Daft Punk Talk Tron: Legacy Soundtrack
By Ryan Dombal on November 18, 2010 at 12:35 p.m. EST
Daft Punk robots Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo cover this month's Dazed & Confused (with a 3-D pictorial!) and in the accompanying article, they gave up some heady details about their Tron: Legacy soundtrack. (Via FACT.)
The soundtrack features a full orchestra, and Bangalter mused on the longevity of classical music and live instruments as opposed to dance sounds: "A cello was there 400 years ago and will still be here in 400 years. But synthesizers that were invented 20 years ago will probably be gone in the next 20. Synths are a very low level of artificial intelligence. Whereas you have a Stradivarius that will live for a thousand years. In the past, we have worked with clashing genres like disco and heavy metal, and here we would do it with film scores... this idea of the ultimate retro-futurism."

New Das Racist Video, Mixtape, Game
By Ryan Dombal on September 2, 2010 at 2:05 p.m. EDT
Self-proclaimed "ethnic electronic band" Das Racist are also a good-humored hip-hop act from Brooklyn who have a playful, nostalgic, old-school-Nintendo-inspired new video out for their track "Who's That? Brooown!", which you can watch at Pitchfork.tv or below. If you remember Double Dragon or Rampage or Frogger, you need to see this. If you don't remember those games, get familiar! (You can actually play the game shown in the video here.)
"Who's That? Brooown!" is off of their recent Shut Up, Dude mixtape. And the guys already have a new tape due to hit the internet September 14 called Sit Down, Man. It features a guest verse from El-P and production from Diplo, Chairlift, Boi-1Da, Keepaway, and more-- the tracklist and an in-studio trailer are after the jump:
