Cooperative multiplayer mode aside, there's no "new generation" style hook and the resulting play mechanics therefore don't feel fresh (especially after two prequels), but the fundamentals are sound and the presentation better than you expect.
Spyro grows up, flies in company, goes farther, glides over wider scenarios, but he doesn't better himself. The trilogy ends in a videogame which keeps alive the prestige of the franchise, although the power of the dragon should be improved in the future.
The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon may have seen its better days but this game has about as much appeal as playing some of those older games from days gone by. With such a lack of creativity and new gameplay the game does not make for much fun and the PlayStation 2 version is no different than the PS3 version.

Feb 21, 2014Amazing series so far the ending was a cliff hanger teasing that there was going to be a 4th game I loved playing as Spyro and Cynder. It was really amazing being able to fly at anytime I been wanting a game where you could for a long time. It still bugs me that there wasn't a 4th.… Full Review »
Feb 22, 2013While different from past titles and it's darker theme Dawn of the Dragon is a very solid, original game with one of the best co-op gameplay I've ever played. The graphics, for a PS2 game is stunning with its divinely level design. The game however is slow and gets extremely frustrating because of the level of difficulty despite being at an early stage of the game. It can also get very boring, but nonetheless addicting as the co-op can keep you alive for hours. Despite it's cruel amount of difficulty, it is however a brilliant, stunning game. This is my first and only Spyro game I ever played, so consider my review completely unbaised.… Full Review »
Dec 18, 2012Usually when playing a game you enjoy while you play it, and you stop enjoying it when you aren't; that's not the case here. This game is so unrefined it's unbearable, but for some reason whenever you aren't playing it, it feels like you want to play the game again, you remember that you didn't have a good time but feel like you would next time you play it. I can play a bad game, but just not this one for some reason. Not to say that it is bad per se, but it definitely won't be remembered in a glorious light. Graphics: bad, they obviously weren't made to be ported to the ps2. Also, everything is so overly saturated and bright that it one could get a headache if they stay in a sunny grassy field for too long.
Music: Not bad but not anything worth mentioning. It sounds like they were trying to give you a Lord of the Rings feeling through the music.
Gameplay: Interesting design, not well executed. Story: Laughable, it takes itself way too seriously, and characters are also very annoying at times, and everyone seems to be completely oblivious to common logic.
If you're going to get this game, at least get it for an hd console, at least then the graphics won't be so bland.… Full Review »

Each year, four individuals are chosen quarterly to be recognized for going above and beyond for Pinellas children and families. They are honored with a certificate and a $500 award check. At the annual Cooperman-Bogue KidsFirst Awards Luncheon each year, the four quarterly winners are honored in front of hundreds of guests and one lucky winner it chosen as the Annual Winner and presented a $2,000 award check.

Lindsay Parete, truancy navigator with PEHMS, where she instills a sense of worth for all she serves, Parete helps children succeed in schools by working with families to overcome truancy.
Lucie Malinski, early childhood consultant with Directions for Living, where her passion for her work is contagious, Malinkski works with parents and other professionals to help ensure children start school ready to learn.

The Cooperman-Bogue KidsFirst Awards Luncheon is supported each year by the Juvenile Welfare Board and several community partners: TransAmerica, BB&T, AllTrust Insurance, Bright House Networks, WUSF, Radio Disney and Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.
In addition, two youths will be honored with the annual H. Browning Spence Education Award in the amount of $500 each. Named in memory of the late Dr. Browning Spence, former deputy director at JWB, the award contributes to the transition into adulthood for two former foster children.

Two pilots will be steering the Big Bear Airport District, now celebrating its 30th year, given Wednesday's meeting of the Board of Directors, which includes Jay Obernolte, Butch Waymire, Julie Smith, Chuck Knight and Gloria Ann Greene. Jay Obernolte is, for the third time, president of the airport district, given a 4-1 vote with the support of all directors except outgoing President Waymire. In the past year, Obernolte had served as vice president, a position which has since been passed to fellow pilot Julie Smith, who received a 4-1 vote, with Director Greene opposing the selection. Upon assuming his role as president at the January 6 meeting, Obernolte was prepared to make committee assignments, with input from fellow directors, and moved to make the Terminal Building Committee a standing (rather than ad hoc) committee, on which Waymire and Greene will serve. Obernolte asked directors that their committees–including personnel, lease, safety and security, finance, and airport development—meet at least once a month, and General Manager Pete Gwaltney suggested that a meeting schedule be published, once those specifics are determined. As compensation for their service on the Airport District Board, directors receive $100 per meeting, not to exceed four in a calendar month.

Thotlakonda, Andhra Pradesh
Thotlakonda located in Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh is famous hilltop monastery. Resided by Buddhist monks, the complex is 128 meters above sea level.
Thotlakonda Buddhist Complex is a famous hilltop monastery on the coast in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. The complex is located about 15 km from the city of
. It lies on the way to Bheemili town on a hill about 128 mts. The complex is 128 meters above sea level overlooking the sea of Thotlakonda. The name Thotlakonda has been derived from the presence of a number of rock-cut troughs hewn in the bedrock of the hillock. These were used for storing water that used to be purified with herbs.
History of Thotlakonda
Thotlakonda remained under the influence of ancient Kalinga region. This place served as an influential source of dissemination of Buddhist culture to Sri Lanka and various parts of south-east Asia. It provides an insight into the process of Trans Oceanic diffusion of Indian culture, especially
Thotlakonda came into existence while an aerial survey by the Indian Navy for setting up a Naval Base was conducted. Since its discovery the Andhra Pradesh State Archaeology Department during 1988 - 1993 have carried out major excavations. During such excavations a Hinayana Buddhist complex that was flourished 2000 years ago was found out. The site proved to be ideal for the Buddhist monks to build a monastery complex here. There is water tank to the South of the complex that was the source of water for the inhabitants of the monastery.
Excavations of Thotlakonda
Various excavations have been carried out in Thotlakonda. Many items have been excavated such as Satavahana lead and Roman silver coins indicating foreign trade; Terracotta tiles stucco decorative pieces, sculptured panels miniature stupa models in stone, Buddha padas and others. 12 Brahmi Label inscriptions have also been found here. Thotlakonda witnessed peak activity between the 2nd Century B.C. and the 2nd Century A.D. owing to brisk Roman trade and religious missions sent abroad.
Many nearby sites in Visakhapatnam district like Bavikonda and Pavuralakonda also came into existence along with Thotlakonda. According to various researches there has been no royal patronage for this monastery. Thus the traders and local believers seem to have supported the complex. Presently Thotlakonda has the capability to accommodate more than 100 Buddhist monks. The complex has arrangements for storing food, clothing, medicines and served as a religious cum academic centre. Hinayana Buddhism appears to have been practiced here which involved worship of
Gautama Buddha
through symbols like Pudukas and other material remains and not in human form.

First to apply your need to waste your own personal time and take a 150 plus question personality test. I don't know how it happened that companies lost total and complete respect for a persons time. There should be no need for an assessment like that until a recruiter has looked and the resume and decided to move forward pending the outcome of an assessment.

me started. Richard Littlejohn recently caused a person to commit suicide with his comments.
I've used it for 30+ years, and in that time i've seen very few people suffer adverse effects (apart from the "smoking" bit) but in that time i've seen alcohol destroy lives, relationships and nights out. Don't blame weed, if it ain't your bag then don't do it...........just leave the rest of us alone
That's the paranoia talking mate
I quite agree. I see a hell of a lot of patients with alcohol related diseases and, whilst I don't work in the mental health areas, I haven't seen a single patient with weed related issues. Harder drugs, yes. Anyone who does coke or IV drugs is an utter moron. They can totally fuck you up for life. Weed however I'd say is safer than the prescription drugs I use by a long, long way.

If you asked any self-respecting neuroscientist 25 years ago what causes depression, she would likely have only briefly considered the question before responding that depression is caused by a monoamine deficiency. Specifically, she might have added, in many cases it seems to be caused by low levels of serotonin in the brain. The monoamine hypothesis that she would have been referring to was first formulated in the late 1960s, and at that time was centered primarily around norepinephrine. But in........ Read more »

Wouldn't it be great if there was a simple way to help people avoid focusing on their pain, allowing them to just watch a TV programme or something, and not be bothered by some painful procedure?

It's also an area of great interest for researchers, because studying how distraction affects our experience of pain shows us ........ Read more »

My wife adores our cats. Now, I'm not a cat person, but my wife loves them. In fact if we had children and someone held a gun to her head and said choose between the kid or the cats, there would likely be an uncomfortable amount of time before a response.

The way some people talk, you'd think the iPod was in a league of its own in terms of looks. It isn't - wake up & smell the onions! Interesting that Joe mentioned iRiver - I used to use one of their flash players, which was much more ingenious in its design. The battery lasted up to 20 hours too, it was smaller, had a radio, acted as a dictaphone and - dare I say it - sounded better too. The reason I gave in to the iPod was for the memory capacity.

How are all mp3 players "lesser" than iPods?
One thing I like about the free market is choice. The iPod works well for a specific set of circumstances, requirements, and budgets, but not so well for others.
No device is perfect for all people for all time.

Nicely summed up by "iPod > all ?" there. As I said, I did buy an iPod… what I'd love to see is one with better batteries and the ability to create your own sound settings, as opposed to relying on a number of presets, which range from 'good' to 'a bit dubious'. And a digital radio built in. And the ability to record directly from the same. One day I am sure it will come…

I like the idea but to be honest I bought it because it looked the best at the time, not due to it being an iPod. I just wish the media would stop making them out to be something revolutionary and just let us the owners of the iPod carry on enjoying them. As for all these "i love my 'pod and people notice me and ask me things etc etc blah blah" people .. a few words spring to mind.. attention seeking?

I loved my ipod when it was generally unknown and exclusive. people often asked me "oooh whats that?" and i loved showing them, now they are overhyped and over exposed and not as cool.
Its still a great peice of kit but i would never dream of wearing on a belt clip i'd just feel a bit of a poser

If you don't appreciate the hype, the pod-talk, the philosophical musings about life in the iPod cult, then what are you doing in the iPodlounge? Please go away.
Posted by alter-ergo on March 1, 2004 at 2:03 PM (CST)
"Life in the iPod Cult"?
Give me a break! Just because you own an iPod does not make you a part of any cult or philosophical movement! You own a piece of technology! It's cool! It plays back music! Now get over it already! Half of the people that own iPods are not even cool! They're mostly upper west-side yuppies or lower east side wannabee VIP's. I see them on the subways every day in NYC! Their playlists suck!
Posted by Stylescraper on March 1, 2004 at 3:06 PM (CST)
And for the record, I own a 40G 3G model! It's not as if anybody cares!
P.S. - My playlists don't suck!
Posted by Stylescraper on March 1, 2004 at 3:09 PM (CST)
If any or all of your songs are currently being aired on VH1, MTV or BET then I think you need to re-evaluate how cool you think you are!
Ownership of an iPod does not, I repeat, DOES NOT mean you're cool!

"what are you doing in the iPodlounge?"
I'm here for the chicks.
Posted by Chicks on March 1, 2004 at 5:40 PM (CST)
Just because i'm in the iPodlounge doesn't mean I want to praise the iPod beyond belief or effectively butt-kiss each other regarding how "cool" we are. I simply want to keep updated on the latest developments for the iPod, mainly hardware based. Stories like this attract my attention simply because of how "lets talk about me" they are, its kinda laughable. I simply want a device that plays back music I now have one. Its called and iPod and thats what it does.
Posted by Pecker on March 2, 2004 at 1:51 AM (CST)
You are simply repeating what I said in my previous posts "Pecker". (Scroll up to read my earliest post!) Although the design has set the standard for future devices, the iPod is simply another device. Owning one does not make you a part of a cult or philosophical movement! My previous statements were exagerrated to express that point!
Posted by Stylescraper on March 2, 2004 at 7:08 AM (CST)
Stylescraper I can't help it if I voice my views and they are similar to yours. After reading your comments I found mine to be slightly less confrontational. I hadn't read your comments previously after scanning the debate.
Posted by Pecker on March 2, 2004 at 7:52 AM (CST)
It's not a question of who's post is more "confrontational". People, please post new thoughts and ideas in this forum, nobody wants to read eight or nine interpretations of the same idea!
Posted by Stylescraper on March 2, 2004 at 8:00 AM (CST)
I just use my ipod headphones without plugging them into anything…....the look of suprise on the theifs face when the try and steal it is worth the fact that I am not actually using my ipod….

"We're Pod people"
Eccchhh! Sounds like a bad remake of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers!"

great comment pete lav, in a few sentence fragments you obliterated the entire purpose of existence for her entire piece. i'd send it to her editor, but he or she probably doesn't know who kurt vonnegut is.
Posted by nihil8r on March 2, 2004 at 11:24 PM (CST)
I'm almost afraid to get involved, but I just wanted to say that, despite all the rhetoric, we are all here because we own, or have an interest in, iPods. Whether this makes us 'cool' is pretty much beside the point, as that is more of a self esteem issue, rather than a material issue.
I'm just excited to own one, (even though I've only had mine for two days). I use macs all day, and have always enjoyed the way they work, that was the reason, more than anything, why I personally saved my money to get one.

There are plenty of new faces for the Guilderland basketball team — including the head coach — but the foundation doesn't have to be rebuilt.
Kaitlyn Drobner last Thursday said she came up with the coat drive Katie's Koats, now in its third year, when she visited New York City and saw a homeless veteran.
Brenda McClaine was a math teacher at Guilderland when she stole over $100,000 in union funds. She was sentenced last week to six months, served on weekends, so she will coninue working at the district office.
Runners from Guilderland had a successful fall season.
Six Guilderville swimmers left for Ithaca today for this weekend's state competition and they couldn't be happier.
These days, female athletes are taking the spotlight at Guilderland as five signed Division I scholarships. Also, a former Dutch soccer star made an All Rookie team for her efforts in college.
A bridge replaced on Grant Hill Road was funded with $1.9 million from federal, state, an county sources.
Four or five soccer teams can make a case for a Class AA championship in 2014, and Guilderland is certainly one of them.
Guilderland is the defending Class AA soccer champion, and after a successful regular season, the team is looking to repeat.

The European Union (EU) Commission has released the review of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive without any additional banned substances. IPC — Association Connecting Electronics Industries, said that the Commission does not intend to add Tetrabromobisphenol (a) (TBBPA) as an additional substance to be monitored or restricted under RoHS.
"TBBPA was found to be safe for humans and the environment by a comprehensive Risk Assessment conducted by the European Union and therefore is not expected to be restricted under the EU Restriction, Evaluation, and Authorization of Chemicals (REACH) regulation," explained Lee Wilmot, director of EHS at TTM Technologies, Inc. and chair of the IPC EHS Steering Committee. "We are gratified that the Commission has decided to base their proposal on scientific findings and to more closely align the RoHS Directive and REACH regulation."
IPC added that the proposal improves the alignment of the RoHS Directive with the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulation. "The REACH and RoHS regulations affect the entire global supply chain and have significant implications for the success and survival of our industry," said Dan Feinberg, owner of Fein-Line Associates and chairman of IPC government relations committee. "IPC members will continue to urge that further substance restrictions be addressed under the REACH regulation in order to avoid duplicative and overlapping regulations."

The official Cincinnati Reds Baseball and Softball Camp is being held in Louisville June 11-15, 2012, at Kentucky Country Day School and is open to boys and girls ages 6-14. The camp will run from Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and include 30 hours of instruction packed with skills development, competition, camaraderie and fun.
Campers will be given a full Reds uniform (jersey, pants, hat and belt), four tickets to a 2012 Reds game and a special graduation certificate commemorating his/her attendance at the inaugural season of the Cincinnati Reds Baseball and Softball Camps. On one of the five camp days, participants will be transported by bus to Great American Ball Park for a VIP behind-the-scenes tour of the bullpens, dugouts, batting cages, media room, broadcast booths and clubhouse. The camp includes special instruction from a Reds coach plus a guest appearance by a current Reds star. Each camper will get to compete in a skills competition with the championships held at Great American Ball Park. Campers will also have their swing recorded and analyzed by the camp video specialist using the same technology used by the Reds.
The Reds are committed to creating a world-class baseball instructional experience for boys and girls, and for parents and coaches who love baseball and softball as much as we do.

Bon-Ton Goodwill Sale set for March 13-30
Online Staff Report
Goodwill and area Bon-Ton stores are encouraging consumers to donate and save during the semi-annual Bon-Ton Goodwill Sale, which will take place March 13-30.
Throughout the sale, the Bon-Ton stores will be accepting donations of used clothing and soft home goods to benefit Goodwill Industries of Northern Illinois. Donations will be sold at area Goodwill stores, and the revenues will fund employment placement programs and other community-based services that help people gain dignity and independence through the power of work. In return, every donor will be rewarded with discounts for any of Bon-Ton's 271 stores and furniture galleries.
