Riders may look pretty cool, but looks can be deceiving.
The story in Sonic Riders is absolutely terrible. Sonic is made fun of mercilessly by the annoying Jet the Hawk, whose voice cracks every 3 syllables, for being SLOW, of all things. Jet leads the Babylon Rogues, who are basically a band of three annoying thieves who think they're all that. Eggman holds a tournament to see who's the fastest on extreme gear (hover boards): the entry fee? Oh, just a measly chaos emerald. You know, the ones he's ALWAYS trying to collect and take over the world with? Yeah, those ones. But, wait, Sonic and friends just give the chaos emeralds to Eggman this time, rather than protect them, so they can race in a silly tournament where the winner supposedly gets all the emeralds. Did Sonic suddenly lose his brain or something? This is just painful! Long story short, the ancient city of Babylon emerges when the seven chaos emeralds are united with Jet's mystical blue cube, and you go in and race a genie and that's the end of the game. The story is so not Sonic-like, has so many ridiculous plot holes, and is so totally unfitting to a racing game that it's just a pain to watch, and the absolutely DREADFUL voice acting drags it even lower. The story can be completed in less than 2 hours, which is bad because the game is so outrageously short but also good because it makes the story end sooner.
But seriously, who plays a racing game for story? I, for one, play for the races, and Sonic Riders has its strong points and weak points in that area. The races are mildly exciting as you perform cool tricks and boost your way through the game's 7 courses, or 14 if you count the juiced up night versions of each. The gameplay has some exciting moments, namely while performing flips and spins in midair, which are executed with simple tilts of the control stick. The concept of racing on hover boards is really cool in itself, too, and causes a little bit of fun on its own. It gives the game a futuristic feel, kind of like F-Zero, only without the overabundance of quality racing or sense of speed.
Like F-Zero, Sonic games are all about going fast, but Riders pretty much fails to deliver that sense of speed. The speedometer says you're going about 200 mph most of the time, but it feels like you're still flying through at less than 100 mph. The remaining gameplay mechanics don't work very well, either. Boosting barely increases your speed for more than a second, turning is a serious pain, you have to take pit stops, and riding turbulence (caused by other racers' boosts) causes too many frustrations that are out of your control. You often get caught in a strip of turbulence when you don't want to, causing you to miss a needed pit stop or rings. Pit stops also slow the game down considerably. You have an air meter, which increases as you level up by collecting rings, and when you run out of air your character gets off his or her board and starts running on foot until you get some more air (at a pit stop, or by going off a jump and doing some tricks). The concept of an air meter really hurts the concept of hover boards, making the gameplay hard to call good or bad. Consider that alongside the lack of a sense of speed, and really it's just average.
Sonic Riders also has a wealth of other modes, whose quality can only be judged by each individual player. Mission mode offers a lot of gameplay, but the missions are very repetitive and don't vary much at all. Earning gold medals on each mission can be fun, but it doesn't take long to get tired of mission mode all together due to the sheer repetition. Tag mode pairs you up with another racer and you share an air tank and can't get too far away from each other. I found this mode to be a pain for obvious reasons. Survival mode is probably Sonic Riders' strongest mode. The special race type here involves one player holding an emerald and going through gates while holding the emerald, and the other players frantically trying to get the emerald because once a player passes through 5 gates while holding the emerald, they win. There is also a battle mode under the Survival mode, which I didn't understand in the slightest but it appeared decent enough for some people to enjoy.
In action, Sonic Riders looks pretty nice. The graphics are very smooth, animations are very nice and everything looks good. During an average cutscene, the graphics look a tad choppy. In the rare CG cutscene, however, the visuals are very sharp, and look about as good as an animated movie (although nowhere near Pixar quality, of course).
Still, during the cutscenes it doesn't really matter how good they look because of the dreadful storyline and horrible voice acting, which brings us to the area of sound. The voice acting is dreadful; the lines are said in the cheesiest ways, the voices are really poorly done, and there are voice cracks galore. The sound effects sound good, though, catching turbulence actually has a really cool sound and everything sounds like it should. The music is really fitting to the game's semi-futuristic concept, but as far as fitting the courses they fail. Hearing the same kind of music on a jungle course as a city course just doesn't make much sense. None of the tunes are memorable by any means, either.
Overall, Sonic Riders is just not a very good game. The exciting moments and cool concept can't save it from its lack of control, shortness, and many frustrations. Riders doesn't bring Sonic down or up from where he is now, it just solidifies his position as a character who can star in a game of any sort of quality, whether it be good, bad, or just so-so. As far as Riders is concerned, it's just so-so.
+ cool racing concept
+ some really fun moments
+ Survival Mode is pretty solid
+ animated cutscenes look great
- TERRIBLE story starring even worse voice acting
- outrageously short story (although that can be a good thing, too)
- very few courses
- no real sense of speed
- too many things can happen that are out of your control
- pit stops
THE FINAL VERDICT: Sonic Riders has a cool concept and some fun moments, but that can't save it from the lack of control, general shortness, and plethora of frustrations. Riders is best left on the store shelf.

Tasting yourself (for women)
|Mon, 05-07-2012 - 2:49pm
DH has this recent obsession about me giving him oral after we've made love. I try not to be a prude but the thought of tasting "myself" doesn't appeal to me.
My question is how common is this? I'm not interested in whether you think I am right or wrong, because that is for each to decide on their own, I am just interested in seeing what the consensus is on this issue.

I love the taste of a woman as well....especally if my very hard penis is inside of the woman....and then she performs oral sex on me....very sexy

A New StartA New Start by ASSASSINBIATCH
A New Start
I stare at her face, wet jade eyes staring right through me. I take this moment to stare at the determination glowing through them, believing without a single doubt that what she just said will help me after all I've, no we've been through. The thunder breaks my thoughts.
I feel her tender hands grab my shoulders as she slowly pulls me into a hug, quietly whispering to me, "It's going to be alright, everything is going to be alright."
I don't notice that I stopped holding back the tears as she pulls me closer to her. She seems to know that she's who I need at this moment. That she's the only one who knows I can only move on with from the deaths of our friends, to have a new start. I grab her back with my muddy hands to keep her, to try to protect her from the danger we have both been exposed to.
I feel the rain slowly stop, the heavens seem to want me to let go of the past, to let go of all the lies and horror that happened. I look up and stare at the infamous monume
NaruSaku: The Date"Ah", Naruto said as he stretched his arms upwards. "It's good to get some cash after missions."NaruSaku: The Date by YeeJian
It was a hot day in Konoha, Village hidden in the Leaves. Naruto just came back from a mission; transporting goods to one of the villages that laid on the outskirts of the Land of Fire. Naruto just came down from the Hokage Tower and was counting his reward. He finally looked up from his notes and saw Sakura doing the grocery shopping.
Naruto grinned widely. It had been ages since he took Sakura out for a date. Now with some money, he can take Sakura out to that restaurant called The Magic Carp. He walked behind her as she was busy picking up pickles and closed her eyes with his hands.
"Guess who?"
Sakura, without thinking, turned around and punched Naruto in the face. Naruto flew five kilometers away from her and landed painfully on some crates. Naruto groaned in pain.
When Sakura realized who she hit, she gasped and quickly ran to Naruto. She pulled Naruto to his feet.
"So sorry", Sakura
Valentine Paradise: NaruSakuValentine Paradise: NaruSaku by YeeJian
It was a cool autumn day in the Village Hidden in the Leaf where ninjas with Konohas headband and with backpacks before heading out for missions assigned by the Hokage, the powerful leader of the village. At the ramen store, a sixteen year-old boy wearing orange shirt was happily eating ramen.
That was good, cried the boy, Old man, get me another bowl of ramen!
Okay Naruto, one bowl of ramen coming out. The stall keeper said.
Uzumaki Naruto was the boys name. He has blonde and spiky hair and aquamarine-coloured eyes. On both his cheeks there are three scars like whiskers. Although he is a bit dense and naïve, he is very determined, love challenges and when he meets someone for the first time, he made friends with them. Naruto was stuffing himself with his second bowl of ramen when he heard a voice behind him, Naruto?
Naruto turned around, behind him was a girl with pink hair about his age. What is it, Sakura?
NarutonappedHeres my fifth NaruSaku story, hope you like it!Narutonapped by SilverMikazuki129
Sakura was sitting in a chair, next to Narutos hospital bed, watching him rustle around his sleep.
Uh, Sakura noo! Sakura-Chan! Aah no, all my fault I-I-I hurt Sa! Naruto yelled, waking up.
Naruto, are you okay? Sakura asked, worried,
Yeah, Im fine, just a nightmare, He replied.
Naruto, you were talking in your sleep, Sakura said.
I was? Naruto said in response.
Yes. Naruto, you didnt hurt me, the Kyuubi did, Sakura said.
I know, but, but it was my body and my fault, I-I just wasnt strong enough! Naruto said, tearing up.
Naruto, Im fine, nothings wrong! Sakura assured him.
I know, but, but I could have killed you! I almost did! I-I shouldnt even be here, I should just leave! Naruto screamed.
NO! Sakura yelled back.
Sa-sakura-Chan, He whispered
NaruSaku prom night.NaruSaku prom night. by Animefanforever123
It was a bright and shiny day in the leaf village, School had just let out and everyone was talking about this upcoming prom. All the girls were very excited for it despite the fact that the rules say the girl has to ask the guy. Ino, Hinata, Tenten, Temari and Sakura were all gathered around the school gate talking.
"I'm so excited for this prom! I went shopping one day and I found the perfect dress, but it was way expensive but I have enough for it now" Ino announced
"That's great Ino! So do you already know who you're going to prom with" Hinata asked with a gentle smile
Ino looked away from the girls and a small embarrassed blush warmed her cheeks.
"Uhh, about that… I really haven't given much thought to who I wanted to ask" Ino admitted with an awkward laugh following it.
"Ino you know you shouldn't spend so much time worrying about a dress if you don't even have a date" Sakura declared
NaruSaku- they need eachother~ SEQUELNaruSaku- they need eachother~ SEQUEL by Animefanforever123
Sakura walked into Sasuke's western hide out, it took them nearly 3 week to get there. Once Sakura got settled in, about a few months later, she began to have nightmares and one day she had this atrocious urge, that something was going horribly wrong somewhere. Sakura walked outside and looked up at the moon that shinned so bright. She felt as if someone somewhere, was looking at it too and somehow they were connected. Unsure why she had that feeling she began to cry. She held her heart and all she could think about was
Sakura closed her eyes tight and clenched her fists.
"No! This can't be happing" Sakura looks up at the moon again and glares angrily at it but then sees Naruto's face and loses her breath.
"Naruto, I I'm sorry"
Sakura reached up and tried to grab the moon hoping it would bring Naruto there.
"My noisy boy"
"Let me see your smile again!"
Sakura closed her eyes and tried to think of Naruto's smile. But he was so blurry, she co
A Narusaku ChristmasA Narusaku ChristmasA Narusaku Christmas by Sanin2
Naruto had spend a lot of Christmas's alone, mostly due to no family and no friends. Jiraiya said that he was coming over for Christmas this year, but he's dead now. Killed in battle, he recieved the news only about a day ago. He couldn't believe he was gone. Even though he said he was going to stay for just a few minutes, that meant to Naruto a whole lot for just those few minutes, it was the most he had ever gotten in his whole life. Even though he had friends now, he still feels like he's hated for who he is; a monster. He's lived all his life under prejudice and hatred. But he quickly got back up and grew more stronger each and every time.
"It's a day away, i guess." Naruto said depressingly. He was laying on his bed, he maybe plans to just stay home for the remainder of the holidays.
"It's not like anyone is waiting for me to come outside. They're all with their familes or something."
But for some reason, he just can't stay in his house anymore. So he

Loudness Compensation: Use and Abuse
A listening survey of conventional loudness controls led to te subjective impression that most of them overcompensate. The well-known Fletcher-Munson contours are shown to be an improper basis for loudness compensation. Differential loudness contours, however, can be used to account for the fact that the ear's response is not flat at any chosen reference level. Also, experimental data after Fletcher-Munson is examined for applicability to loudness compensation. Computer generated tables are included along with several circuits developed to follow the new curves.

Purchased at iHerb
I have been using the product for about two weeks before I go to bed. I started taking one pill as recommended on the bottle but, I upped my dosage to two pills after about a week. The product works very well. It's not going to produce miracles but, its still worth using. I like the tryptophan over melatonin and 5htp because it is assimilated by your body much better. When I wake up in the morning, I never feel drowsy.

Learning from the slums (1/2):literature and urban renewal
"Slumdog Millionaire" is the movie of the year. Its story of a young guy from Mumbai's slum of Dharavi, who manages to change its destiny through the "Who wants to be a Millionaire" game has charmed many people, including the Oscars' jury, who awarded the movie with 8 prizes.
At the same time, the movie has created a debate around slums and how the movie portrays them. "Slumdog Millionaire" follows the mainstream vision of slums, described in the XIX century by writers like Daniel Defoe or Charles Dickens: dark, dirty places, with people packed in small rooms with no water facilities. In slums, riots are frequents, and police can hardly enter: the perfect place for criminals to hide and plan their threats to the society, and the perfect incubator for all sort of diseases.

Score from 576 reviews Good
Location was close to Hollywood Walk of Fame and close to a good café for breakfast. Liked the connecting room with bathroom in between. Great for privacy. Young man at desk was very nice and helpful.
Room was very dimly lit with overhead light. Room was next to a parking lot and people were slamming car doors until late in the evening. Older gentleman at desk was not friendly and didn't seem to care about his guests.
Very friendly and precize staff. They give full of instructions - and even a map - about everything. Clean room. The hotel is one street from Hollywood Bvd. You can see the parking lot from the window. We would like to go back soon and enjoy their hospitality again.
The reception of the hotel is terrible! How can someone treat their clients with such bad humor and bad manners?!
Loved the simple and minimalist decor of the room, it made the room comfy and welcoming.
Very friendly and helpful staff but not intrusive, good location.
No real downside
Location location location Refurbished rooms Hollywood sign at back of hotel Free coffee & lemonade in café across the street (if you purchase food!) Very friendly staff in hotel
Lack of tv channels Additional cost for parking..on the upside it was just across the street and was a reduced rate of $10 per 24 hr period.
Perfect distance from where you want to be but not too close to hear all of the action. Definitely hollowood but not the strip which is what I prefer
A little small but this not a complaint just an observation great comfortable semi-lux space
Its in a good location. The parking just sucks. Its a Cute and Quaint place to stay. Small, yet cozy. Very clean.
Its real small for the price.
parking available, friendly staff, great location, nice rooms
Perfect location. Made staying in LA without hiring a car very easy- a few minutes walk from main bus routes and metro stations, and of course the famous Hollywood Boulevard. Definitely will stay here again!
2 connecting rooms was nice.
Very rude ownership. First they charge U a $10.00 per night parking fee which is located at a Chevron gas station 3 blks away . 2nd the fridge did not work and the owner kept saying that it does work and finally he got angry and said he could not replace it so either we take a smaller fridge or we find another hotel. The entire family was VERY rude to us the entire time we were there and I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.
strongly recommended location, cleanness, wifi, hairdryer, coffee maker, fridge
parking +10$/day
Decent location Clean rooms Comfortable bed Free Wifi Good price
Parking across a main street at a potentially shady location.
Accommodating staff, Kidron was very friendly and helpful
The location was great, only a 10 minute walk to the Hollywood Boulevard (Walk of Fame). I would stay in this area over LA Downtown! They didn't have a place to eat, but recommended the cafe across the road which has DECENT coffee - which can be hard to find in the US. The original manager who welcomed us was friendly, but the other guy (seemed like he was the first guy's cousin) seemed to struggle with English and didn't understand our queries.
We paid an extra $20 a night (3 nights) to have the newly renovated rooms - not worth it (although i didn't see the older rooms). We were right outside the reception and heard everyone come in and out at all times of the night. The beds were hard and squeaky. Not sure if i would stay again.
Clean room . Feel like I was staying at a friends house
No on site parking. It was $15 extra to park a block away
The rooms were nicely updated and a very convenient walk to the HollyWood Bowl
Cozy hotel very close to Hollywood walk and the Hollywood Bowl. Staff very nice and helpful!
Despite some cultural nuances from staff the hotel is amazing and very quiet almost like a small bnb with a hotel vibe. Everything was quick and easy.
I'm not going to complain about little things! It's a small family owned hotel... Yeah the parking situation is strange and the hotel could use improvements but the owners are nice and caring!
It was close to Hollywood Blvd. The rooms are affordable. The area feels safe. Very close to a cafe named Solar De Cahuenga which serves great food (breakfast all day) and drink.
It was too close to Hollywood Blvd; some loud drunks were staying in the room next to mine. The rooms and bathrooms are very small.
Close to everything Friendly very helpful people Clean and secure Coffee & maker& fridge useful
luggage racks in room would help
Great location - only a 10 minute walk into the action. Across the road from a fabulous cafe for breakfast. Staff were excellent - very friendly. Hotel clean and with all the facilities you need fridge / coffee maker / iron etc. We really had a great time and would stay again if in hollywood
nothing bad to say
Location, friendly owners and very helpful, cleanliness and most important price
This older hotel is located just blocks from Hollywood Blvd. This made it easy to walk to everything.
No Parking on site. If you arrive early they want to charge extra even if the room is available. I will assume they wouldn't store your luggage until the room was ready since they didn't offer that service.

Proposed DCF overhaul creating problems
Advocates for abused and neglected children are raising red flags over pending legislation that drastically expands the number of child abuse investigators. The problem -- lack of funding once the state knows who is being abused or neglected.
Providers say they have less money today to care for abused and neglected kids than they did in 2007, yet the numbers needing care are rising.
Gov. Rick Scott is proposing hiring 400 new child protection investigators at a cost of $39 million.
"We still have much to do to protect the most vulnerable among us," Scott said.
But advocates came out in droves at a House Appropriations Committee.
"There's not enough (money). I don't think it goes far enough in this bill for us to help protect the lives of kids in the state of Florida," said Mike Watkins, with Big Bend Community Based Care.
Advocates say the hiring of investigators without spending more on services once problems are found is short-sighted.
"If we don't have good prevention, if we don't have good subsidies, if we don't have good mental health, and we don't have good domestic violence, we're really wasting money on doing better investigations," Watkins said.
The idea to beef up child protection followed a series of stories that linked 477 deaths of children who were under Department of Children and Families supervision to a lack of follow-up by the state.
But budget makers said they are doing all they can do.
"A lot of advocates all over the state are asking for a lot of money," said Rep. Seth McKeel. "We have a $75 billion budget. We're going to do the best we can to take care of as many people as we possibly can."
Without more services to help stressed families, advocates said the state will only be doing a better job of tracking problems without being able to do anything about those problems.

text: Print article Send a Tip Cops: Mom Tased Daughter in the Face for Poor House Cleaning by Jon David Kahn 12 Sep 2013 ZEPHYRHILLS, FL - Pasco police arrested a woman after she allegedly pulled out a stun gun and discharged it into her daughter's face during an argument about house cleaning. A Pasco County Sheriff's report details what could only be called a Rockwellian slice of Americana. According to the report, Cynthia Alexander (pictured above) had fundamental differences with her daughter, Stephanie Thompson, over how their mobile home should be cleaned. But when art is questioned, passions can flare, and according to Thompson, that's exactly what happened: the argument turned physical and her mother began punching and pushing her. And then, according to authorities, Alexander unholstered a stun gun, pointed and discharged it directly into her own daughter's face. Thompson reportedly ran out to the front yard where she flagged down a helpful neighbor passing by on his bicycle. Seeing both women in front of the house, he parked his steed and was able to remove the stun gun from Alexander's clutch. Alexander was arrested on charges of aggravated domestic battery and taken to the Land O' Lakes Detention Center...which actually sounds delightful.

Oracle Still To Make OpenSolaris Changes
Published on 22 February 2010 01:39 PM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
18 Comments
Since Oracle finished its acquisition of Sun Microsystems, there have been many changes to the open-source projects that were once supported under Sun now being discontinued by Oracle and significant changes being made to the remaining open-source products. One of the open-source projects that Oracle hasn't been too open about their intentions with has been OpenSolaris. Solaris Express Community Edition (SXCE) already
closed up last month
and there hasn't been too much information flowing out about the next OpenSolaris release, which is supposed to be known as OpenSolaris 2010.03 with a release date sometime in March.
This morning on the
mailing lists there has been talk about what exactly is the future of OpenSolaris within Oracle. On the Sun domain, Oracle has already
published a new web-page
stating the end of service life for OpenSolaris.
OpenSolaris 2009.06
is the latest official OpenSolaris release, but even that release is no longer covered under their general availability (GA) support phase without any new release being available. Though at the bottom of the page is a note that Oracle is still reviewing Sun's information and is coming to a decision regarding the product's road-map and future offerings.
one former Sun customer
points out, the subscription link for OpenSolaris has been removed. George Shepard formerly of Sun and now with Oracle has
that Oracle is indeed planning on changing the support model for OpenSolaris, but no announcements are yet available.
