Baby Born With Two Penises
Despite his mother's normal pregnancy, the baby was born without a stomach wall and instead had two sex organs. He was rushed to a Moscow clinic where doctors fashioned one functioning organ out of the anomaly.
"The surgery was complicated," said a doctor involved in the five-hour operation at St. Vladimir's Children's Clinical Hospital. "We had to form one penis out of two, make the abdominal wall and create a bladder."
Artyom's double endowment comes hot on the heels of a baby who was born with a penis growing out of his back last June. The rare condition was a type of fetus in fetu, a developmental disability in which a mass of tissue resembling a fetus forms in the human body.
Doctors say that Artyom is healthy and will grow up to be a normal, fully functional man.
Tuesday 30 June
By flyndaran
They don't say why they HAD to form one penis. They don't say that as two they were non-functional. Operations should not just be for looks.
Thursday 17 September
By fake
stupid doctors, why not let the child make the decision when he's older weather or not he wants to keep or get rid of the extra? I HATE my parents for having me circumcised because it violated my own free will as a human

ROSWELL - The adjustments were exactly right and the Wesleyan Wolves avenged an earlier loss to Fellowship Christian by an identical 1-0 score in the second round of the girls state AA/A soccer playoffs Tuesday.Wesleyan had made several crucial changes to its lineup since a March 6 loss to the Paladins. First, sophomore Kenzie Stanford was moved to defense and has marked the opposition's best players - with excellent results. Fellowship Christian rarely got free for quality scoring chances and a chunk of the credit for Wesleyan's 12th shutout of the year can go to Stanford. With Stanford back, Wolves head coach Lacy Gilbert pushed freshman Emma Smiley to forward. That change worked out pretty well, too. Smiley had the game's only goal in the 61st minute. "We mixed it up for this game and we had a better idea of how to play them," Gilbert said. "We knew they'd be physical, we expected that. We knew they had some fast offensive players. So we shifted things around to adjust to them. "We also knew they were going to double-team and triple-team Paige (Pickert) every time she got the ball. She's so good with her feet. The second half we pushed her up top so that we'd open her up some more to shoot. She shot a bunch the second half. We switched her with one of our forwards. "Even when Paige doesn't score, she makes things happen." It was a touch from Pickert that got Smiley the ball in front of the net. Smiley tapped the ball from her left foot to the right and booted a bouncing shot past the goalkeeper. What followed was a nearly interminable 15 minutes as Wesleyan tried to defend the scant lead. But the Wolves (16-4) are well accustomed to tight games - this was their fourth 1-0 win of the season - and managed to hold off the Paladins (13-4). "It was the longest 15 minutes ever," Smiley said. For the first 10 of those minutes, Fellowship Christian was in Wesleyan's end and getting continued pressure. Then the Wolves, who are ranked sixth in Class AA/A, tightened the screws and generated a few final scoring chances of their own. "Just the fact that it was in the state tournament, we all just really wanted it really bad - especially for the seniors," Smiley said. Wesleyan has won its last 10 games and will play at home against St. Vincent's on Friday in the state quarterfinals.

'LBPS Members Triumph at Glasgow 2014
LBPS members Stewart Gaudin and Bob Low both did well playing those other, larger, somewhat more Highland pipes last week when they picked up prizes in the National Piping Centre's "Competitive League for Amateur Solo Pipers" (C.L.A.S.P.) contests held during Piping Live 2014. Stewart quite literally blew the opposition away in Grade 2, making a clean sweep of 1st place in every event and taking overall winner for that grade, while Bob slugged it out in Grade 1 against a strong international field, including members of top US and Canadian bands, to take overall winner in Grade 1. We are assured they will return to their senses and strap the bellows on again before too long.

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - The federal government is delaying the implementation of new rules on releasing nutrients into Florida waters. The Environmental Protection Agency is granting a 15-month delay for the new rules to take effect. They are very controversial, pitting environmentalists against farmers and other business interests.
"I am disappointed because we know the water is polluted, and this is just going to cost more as time goes by. We need to act now, today, not 15 months from now," said Rae Ann Wessel, of the Sanibel Captiva Conservation Foundation. "We need to protect our tourism, which depends on clean water. Farmers and others are grossly over-stating the cost of the rules.
The EPA wants to impose a numeric limit on nutrients, primarly nitrogen and phosphorous, that flow into lakes, rivers and streams. The rules would require business and farmers to buy new equipment to measure the nutrients, and prevent them from running off into the water.
"Any time that EPA will grant us, is a good positive thing," said Ron Hamel, of the Gulf Citrus Association. "These rules will hurt farmers, they could cost up to 8-billion dollars a yer statewide, according to one study we have seen. That's the cost to agriculture and other businesses. We are not sure our members can or would implement the rules."
House Speaker-designate Dean Cannon said he will ask the Fl. Legislature to over-ride the EPA actions, and prevent the implementation of the rules, at any time. "This is an over-reach of the federal government, and it intrudes on property rights and the on the right of our state to set our own water quality standards," Cannon said.
The state and EPA have battled for years over the water quality rules. The EPA says it is delaying the rules in part because of the poor economy. It also says, it wants all parties to have time to fully understand the rules and how to implement them.

Reading Insurance Law – Of Emperors and Clothes
We lawyers can sometimes adopt a herd mentality. A senior lawyer or judge says something. You go back and read the case. You may be reluctant to voice your difference. That's how we, as a profession, can just get things wrong. The example here comes from insurance law, but you can apply it to your area of expertise. Continue reading
CGL Policies – the Russian Doll of Business Insurance
Few subjects beguile new lawyers more than the interpretation of commercial general liability insurance policies (CGL).
This includes many corporate-commercial lawyers contributing to complex agreements running into hundreds of pages. Show them a CGL form, and their eyes glaze over. But most CGL policies are only a few pages long, and the longest run a few dozen pages. Once you "get" the basic structure of the agreement, as described by Justice Rothstein at paragraphs 26-28 of the 2010 Supreme Court of Canada decision in Progressive Homes v. Lombard, you'll wonder why you ever thought the subject so daunting: Continue reading
Solving the conundrum of the Canadian tripartite retainer
(le sommaire français suit)
Discussion of the 2000 Court of Appeal for Ontario decision, Fellowes McNeil v. Kansa, in my recent article, "No Unbundling of Negligence," has tapped into a continuing discussion of the precise ethical obligations of lawyers and law firms retained by liability insurers to defend parties in lawsuits, and who "stumble upon" information that may jeopardize the coverage and the insurer's provision of a defence. The Supreme Court did grant leave to appeal, but the case was settled before Canada's top court could hear it. Eleven years later, you'll hear it here first, folks: Fellowes was wrongly decided.

Should I get Excess Liability Insurance?
Excess insurance is relatively inexpensive, and well worth the peace of mind. Lawyers tend to be born insomniacs – you don't need anything else keeping you up at night!
LawPro's standard (mandatory) policy provides coverage with insurance limits of $1 million per claim and $2 million in the aggregate. This means there is $1 million in coverage for each claim, but no matter how many claims there are against you, the maximum payable for claims made during any policy year is $2 million.

LawPro 101 – Putting yourself first
If You are Reading this post …
because you need to know what to do, you have taken the first step to getting out from under a potential E&O problem. Of course a blog is no substitute for legal advice and a proper retainer, and only scratches the surface. But if this can help you appreciate that there is help out there for you, and that fellow lawyers are pleased to give you advice, then it will have served its purpose. You can, of course, read the LawPro standard liability insurance policies. Unless you have experience reading insurance policies, you likely fall into the majority of lawyers I know, who do not. Coverage is usually not an issue if you have paid your premiums and follow the reporting guidelines, but if an issue arises, you should seek out the advice of a lawyer who knows how liability policies work.

Best Italian in Pittsburgh.
I'm in Pittsburgh in early Dec. on business.
$ is not a problem, but my boss is from New Haven, Ct.
and knows good home cooked traditional Italian food.
Any thoughts.
Also is Primante's as good as T.V. makes it out to be?
I'd love to try something unique to the city as I have never visited.
re: chalanga
Definitely authentic!
re: Td61
take a look at Girasole www.733copeland.com we really like it.
I can't wait to get to Piccolo Forno. The menu looks great, very reasonably priced, byob, and I've heard great things. Google it. Its also very close to downtown.
just got it, www.piccolo-forno.com
yes Primanti's is very good. I would go to the Southside or Strip District. Get the Pittsburgher Cheesesteak. Best with a beer or after a few. Delicious none the less.
For authentic Italian, I'd recommend Alla Famiglia in Allentown (http://www.allafamigliapittsburgh.com) as well as the aforementioned Piccolo Forno in Lawrenceville. Also, Il Pizzaiolo in Mt. Lebanon has great Napolitan pizza and some decent antipasti and pasta dishes.
re: chalanga
For authentic italian, I would definitely go with Davio.
The owner of Davio started Alla Famiglia and sold it to the current owner. I think Davio does it better than Alla Famiglia. Only negative about Davio is plastic tablecloths really stink at a restaurant that is about $50pp. It is BYOB.
In my opinion, Primanti's is overrated - when in Oakland, I opt for the O.
2100 Broadway Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15216
re: meatmaster
I'll bite. What's the O?
re: Td61
The O is the Original Hot Dog Shop
I always pick Fat Head's over Primanti's.
re: chalanga
Does anyone know if Per Mi Figlia that didn't last a year at the corner of Forbes and Murray was owned by the same people who own Alla Famiglia? That was the rumor at the time. If so, I would avoid Alla Famiglia. The food at Per Mi Figlia was what did them in. I had a crabcake there one night with a sauce made of what tasted like orange juice from a can. Another time, I had ravioli that was made of such thick dough, I would rather have been served a can of Chef BoyArDee. If ever a restaurant deserved to close, it was Per Mi Figlia.
re: Jay F
I am pretty sure that an ex-chef at Alla Famiglia (Paul?) opened Per Mi Figlia. It did not hold a candle to Alla Famiglia resulting in a fair amount of disappointment.
I enjoy:
Enrico's - Shadyside
Girasole - Shadyside
17th Street Cafe - Southside
Dish - Southside
Cafe Roma - Bloomfield - BYO
a favorite of the BF is Gran Canal - Sharpsburg......
recently went to La Tavola - Mt Washington - while it was good, I was not overly impressed. Our entree portions contained very little seafood/meat (and we ordered frutti de mare and a veal dish)...the place was packed and I wanted to love it but was dissappointed by the execution of the entrees....the BYO might persuade me to give it a 2nd try.....
My favorite is Piccolo Forno in Lawrenceville, the only restaurant in Pgh. who make a decent Lasagne Bolognese. And their pizza is great, too. Also, the grilled veg. appetizer. They are closed Sunday and Monday.
Lidia's is good for brunch on Sunday. It's $22 for all you can eat antipasto and dessert, plus your choice of entree.
Actually, both restaurants are very reasonably priced. Lidia's is more expensive at dinner.
You must avoid the so-called Little Italy restaurants in Bloomfield, unless you're craving Italian-American drek from the '50s.
Primanti's is wayyy overrated.. only good if your in your 20's and drunk.
The O is some of the best artery-clogging stuff out there.
I also enjoyed Franco's Trattatoria.
#1 - primanti's is not overrated. Corned beef or pastrami with that vinegary/peppery coleslaw (no mayo in there) and crispy, thick fries, maybe a fried egg for added bonus, on fresh Italian bread. Maybe also a dash or two or three of hot sauce. Gourmet? no. A good sandwich, hells yes. Fatheads sandwiches are good, but the few I have had always left me feeling full but not satisfied. Fatheads does have an excellent beer selection, though.
#2 - If we're taking Italian food the way they eat it in Italy, then Dish Osteria on the South Side is definitely a good recommendation - simple food, quality ingredients, well executed, excellent atmosphere.
#3 - The O has heaping mounds of greasy fries that are excellent if you are very drunk, or if you just really like greasy fries, and long-ass hot dogs that are, in the world of hot dogs, nothing spectacular.
re: Whigsboy
IMO, I think the main reason many of us non-native Pittsburghers are ambivalent about Primanits is the Mancini bread. I'd love a kielbasa with the works and fried egg on a nice Breadworks or Mediterra or Allegro roll or ciabattina. But I can't think of anyone who's moved here who actually likes Mancini bread. I understand Mancini an institution here, but it's to bread what IC Light is to beer ;-)
Bombs away!
I agree with the Girasole suggestions. I like the food although the last couple of times I've been there the service was less than great.
As for the Primanti's debate: Call it what it is- it's a sandwich that native Pittsburghers grew up with and celebrate as part of their city's food heritage. To a non-native (obviously I am one) it might not be all that great. I've been told by coworkers that it does taste much better at 2am after a night of drinking, but I'm going to just have to take their word for it. One visit was more than enough for me.
Tally another vote for a non-Pittsburgher whose bewildered by all the Primanti press. I'd much rather get a sandwich from the Pittsburgh Deli Company, not that they're anything special.
Picolo Forno is one of my favorite places in Pittsburgh, but it's not really serious cuisine. The aforementioned lasagna is quite good and the antipasti and pizze are really satisfying. However, I've found many of the pastas are disappointing and the menu lacks the secondi of a serious Italian ristorante. Usually we show up with a few bottles and nosh on the first courses for hours. It works out to an excellent deal for food that will accompany a wide variety of lighter wines but again, I wouldn't go there for a serious meal or with a borolo.
Girasole and Enricos are more fancy, but I actually like them much less. I find that Enrico's food is far too heavy and has no real subtlety. Girasole, on the other hand, is just really boring. Of the two, I definitely prefer Enrico's as it can be satisfying to consume all that richness. I think they both sell the burnt almond torte from the nearby Prantl's bakeshop. That's worth ordering, I think.
Lidia's served me the best octopus Ive had. I've really enjoyed many of their dishes and I think their bargain wine list is outstanding; whoever picks out their inexpensive bottles really has some great finds. The wine list in general is very good. A little inconsistency in the menu is the only thing that keeps me from recommending Lidia's without hesitation.
Dish has been on my list for the last two years but I never seem to manage to get out there.
re: TeXPAt
Oops. I was confusing the heavy food from Pizzuti's with Enricos which I've never been to but heard good things about.

Are America's Best Days Behind Us?
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 03-04-2011 - 11:51am
I started to put this in the Non-Debatable Folder just because I thought it was an interesting article that you might want to read. There are so many debatable points though, so I'm putting it here instead.
Are America's Best Days Behind Us?
A few quotes...
- The decisions that created today's growth — decisions about education, infrastructure and the like — were made decades ago. What we see today is an American economy that has boomed because of policies and developments of the 1950s and '60s...
- And all those interests are dedicated to preserving the past rather than investing for the future. There are no lobbying groups for the next generation of industries, only for those companies that are here now with cash to spend. There are no special-interest groups for our children's economic well-being, only for people who get government benefits right now.
- What is really depressing is the tone of our debate. In place of the thoughtful concern of Jefferson and Adams, we have its opposite in tone and temperament — the shallow triumphalism purveyed by politicians now. The founders loved America, but they also understood that it was a work in progress, an unfinished enterprise that would constantly be in need of change, adjustment and repair.
|Wed, 03-16-2011 - 10:24am
seems to be true on both counts, at least in California...
|Mon, 03-14-2011 - 4:28pm
I'm sorry, it's just too trivial to dwell on. In civil debate, one need not explain every little detail.
|Mon, 03-14-2011 - 10:53am
It's the only way to make a credible case. A reluctance or refusal to expand or clarify usually means there is NO logic, proof and/or case.
|Sun, 03-13-2011 - 11:21pm
Illogical and contradictory to complain that "[Obama] makes no compromises, at least in his actions" and then bring up the non-closure of Guantanamo.
|Sun, 03-13-2011 - 3:38am
I find the blaming pointless. The Iraq war has indeed been a disaster, and an expensive one. However, I don't really care at this point how we got into the mess. The question is how do we get out, how do we move on.
|Sun, 03-13-2011 - 12:17am
We might stop blaming the previous president when all his colossal gaffes have been reversed. Unfortunately, it's usually true that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure--and Bush was a hideous leader who was far more given to posturing and strutting than considering the long term impact of his arrogance and preening.
Bush wrought harm which can never be undone. Over 4,000 U.S, dead in Iraq are Exhibit A. Exhibit B would be the thousands of U.S. vets who are struggling to recover from physical and mental injuries incurred in the unspeakable and immoral mess of Iraq.

@shoot them later. I agree the rUK haven't had a say in this vote. However, we DO have a say next year as the rUK and Scotland negotiate on the break up, and I'm pretty sure that say will be 'You will not make any decision that benefits Scotland'. Alex Salmond is assuming (in public) that the voters in rUK will play nice about the split. Privately, he knows damn well that playing nice with an independent Scotland (and this includes monetary union) would be political suicide for any party.

I don't have 10 top reasons for being on facebook and I admit my use of it is only applicable to myself, but here goes.
I have family scattered across the States, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Italy. I have an equally scattered circle of friends. I use Facebook to keep in contact with all of them, share what we're doing, family pics and news. Before Facebook we used email with a BIG circulation list.
Security is set to Friends (sometimes 'Friends of Friends') but specifically family stuff is limited to a Facebook group.
I don't tend to 'friend' people I'm in everyday contact with because .. well .. I see them everyday. But Facebook has been a really good medium for maintaining contact with distant family and friends.
Facebook isn't for everyone. On the other hand, there are some things it does well, which is, I assume, why it survives. If you have an alternative method of keeping in touch then sure, let me know.

Re: Once again
James, I'm sorry to have to say this, but you have COMPLETELY missed the point of being a true commentard. There are several requirements before you can achieve this status
1) You should only read the first few paragraphs of the article.
2) Cross references or links to the original article should NEVER be read.
3) Never do your own research on the article in question.
4) You should immediately hit the reply button and say the first thing that comes into your head.
5) Don't use a spell chequer. If you can confuse "it's" and "its" even better.
6) Remember that you are the expert on the subject, whatever it is, and that all the other commentards (and the author of the article) are idiots.
7) Deride anyone who has a different opinion to yourself, since they obviously have no brain (see 6 above).
8) Try to use any of the phrases "sheeple", "fanbois", "fandroids" at least once (if you can get all three in so much the better).
Your comment failed on a large number of these points although I congratulate you on the capitals.

There is a bit of a difference here
1) The pilots have been given a specific make and model. It would be possible to test this for interference (Don't know if they have or not, but it's possible). In addition, because they are being used for manuals, the equipment could be put into flight mode permanently.
3) Passengers can use anything from a mobile phone to a 5GW radio transmitter (OK I made that up). Although it's possible that some of them have been tested and shown to be clear, how do you know that every piece of equipment in use is OK? I can imagine the anger if the announcement was made "We are shortly due to take off. iPad owners can continue to use their equipment; Android users must switch their equipment off".

GE study pimps 'industrial Internet'
As far as i can see this paper isn't saying 'lets connect our existing systems to the existing internet'. If they did that then the comments in this section are valid. What it does seem to be saying is "What should we be doing to connect our systems and the people who manage and maintain them together?".
One of the things that clearly comes out is 'we need secure connections'. This might mean a redesigned internet, new protocols built for security rather than robustness. What GE seems to be doing is setting out a challenge. "If we are to do this properly, how are we to do it?"
The need for such systems is growing. Operators want more reliable systems with minimum down time. They want experts available 24 hours a day 7 days a week so that if something does go wrong it can be fixed immediately. They want to be able to operate in more remote locations (think deep water drilling or offshore windfarms or remote pumping stations). Preferably, the operators want to know if something is going to go wrong before it actually does so they can be ready with a maintenance schedule and the appropriate equipment, particularly if the thing which has to be maintained is in the middle of the North sea.
Given these pressures from operators the suppliers have responded by bolting on interconnection to existing kit. This, as has been pointed out, is a recipe for disaster.
Like it or not we are now in a globalised world where the expert on a system may live on the other side of the planet. We are in a data centric world, where what the plant is doing RIGHT NOW is of importance to the operators and where there is a need to respond rapidly to changing conditions.
And I'm beginning to sound like GE now so I'll get my coat. It's the one with a bunch of fibre optic cables and thermocouples in the pocket.

- Publisher: EA Games
- Release Date: Jun 23, 2008
- Also On: PlayStation 3
- Summary: Built from the ground-up for next-generation consoles using Digital Illusions' Frostbite game engine, Battlefield: Bad Company drops gamers behind enemy lines with a squad of renegade soldiers who risk it all on a personal quest for gold and revenge. Featuring a deep, cinematic single-player experience loaded with adventure and dark humor, the game delivers the series' trademark sandbox gameplay in a universe where nearly everything is destructible. Battlefield: Bad Company also features a full suite of the franchise's trademark multiplayer options with deep gameplay modes designed to take full advantage of the game's massively destructible environments.

Mixed: 10 out of 71
Negative: 0 out of 71
It looks great, has fun characters, a load of interesting weaponry, and works nicely whether you're playing alone or with a squad. The campaign lasts long enough to feel fulfilling, and the multiplayer kept me coming back once that was complete.
One could easily say that Bad Company expands the genre itself with its combination of great story, destructible environment and surprisingly deep single-mode multiplayer. Throw in DICE's promises of future (free) content and this is one game that just might meet your wildest desires for both blowing things up and online competition.
Huge, immersive and always intense, Battlefield: Bad Company proves that you may not need the prettiest graphics in the world or design the most original game in order to provide one of the most essential purchases on 360 this year so far.
Bold and bright in tone, it's blockbuster fare that combines DICE's first-person expertise with a small sprinkling of innovation that's enough to ensure it's a perfect way to shoot the summer breeze.
The single player portion, while never less than hugely entertaining, stops short of true greatness thanks to a few fundamental design shortcuts which offer easy health restoring concepts seemingly at the expense of balanced AI. Some of this is irrelevant in the online mode, and the profound implications of a massively destructible environment make it a unique proposition in online gaming right now - albeit a riotous chaotic one.
It's the perfect military shooter for Halo and Unreal Tournament players who find the Clancy titles too real to be fun.
It's got some fresh, entertaining details, and though the game experience is shallow and a little frustrating, you can hop into a mortar cannon and knock down an enemy entrenchment to make you feel better.

PabloRMar 12, 2009"More Criticism than it Actually Deserves" Everysingle bad reviewer looked at the game, and then looked at the most realistic game on the market, and compared it to that other game, they're comparing it as if it were supposed to be super realistic but the game was designed to be more fun than realistic, but maintain a bit of reality into it. Weapons are fun as hell to use, the campaign could be made into a movie, and the graphics are awesome. The grainy textures were meant to be put into the game. When you look around and stuff it's too quick though, even though this can be changed, most games keep it at a more realistic level, but then again, as a soldier fighting this is how quick you might move your gun most of the times, but other than this it deserves a 9.5. Controls weren't too good, realism was average but the game wasn't designed or made to be perfect 10/10 realistic. Graphics were superb, and the campaign was also superb. But, one thing that probably confused a lot of people that it seemed more of a multiplayer match, you kill 30 people, die, then respawn and still those 30 people are gone. But, the game was designed to be difficult and plus in a map you probably face more enemies than you would in a simlilar game. Every aspect of this game was meant to be made in a certain way, the controls were the only problem. There are too many reviews where people are complaining as if they are reviewing a game and expecting it to be 100 percent realistic. Play the game, think, than rate. Since I can't give it a 9.5, I'm gonna give it a 10/10.… Expand
Apr 12, 2011I've owned this game for a long, long time now, but never wrote a review. Anyway, I use this game as a measuring stick for all other online FPSs. I'll compare COD and Crysis 2 to this game. Obviously, both fall WAY short of the mark. It confounds me. I've been playing online FPSs since Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. When that game came out (like 11 years ago), I thought the multiplayer was really cool. It's not so great, however, when COD releases a contemporary multiplayer FPS that mirrors those from over a decade ago. Anyway, tl;dr - Bad Company (and its successor, Bad Company 2) are far superior to all other online FPSs.… Expand
ReyM.Jun 25, 2008The game is very immersive and feels very organic as far as environment.

Ive lost all my guns several times including my Gold Edition weapons. However it usually doesn't that last long so I miss out on about 1 hours playing. Multiplayer deserves a 7.

ChaseMurataJun 24, 2008Okay, after a few days and a lot of hours with the demo, here is my seasoned critique. A critique, as my first-impressions (of primarily the single-player) were far too generous.
I do not like how there are only two spawn points (team or base). Opponents can simply camp with tanks and kill you in succession. I was killed five times in a row switching off both spawn points. Every time I respawned at our base some asshole would immediately - before I could take a step - fire tank bursts into the spawn area. Between the tank and the machine-that-acts-like-your-own-personal-Airstrike, my entire team was decimated every time we spawned at the base spawn point during that game.
The imbalance between classes is infuriating. Snipers have the advantage in most games as the scope covers a great deal of the map, and considering Battlefield is a large-scale game, snipers can, literally, see you coming from miles away. I will say, though, that the aiming system is so imprecise that it will take a few shots for them to kill you - but they will kill you before you can fire back.
Damage is a bit ridiculous, and the Medic class, or what-ever-name-they-gave-it, is not useful at all. Why did they include this class into the game? No one uses it. No one. I have only seen a handful of people use this class in my hours upon hours of gameplay. When I do see them, only few of them handed out health crates. Those who did hand out health crates amidst warfare were killed alongside those who tried to get health crates.
This brings me to my next point: the damage is ridiculously high. It takes only three shots to kill someone with a pistol, and I… Expand

Francois, Garrel named most promising talents
Duo take Romy Schneider/Patrick Dewaere prizes
Francois was honored for her performance in Remi Bezancon's "The First Day of the Rest of Your Life," which also won her the 2009 Cesar award for most promising actress. Garrel starred in Christophe Honore's telefilm "La Belle Personne" and in the 2008 Festival de Cannes competition title "Frontier of Dawn," directed by his father Philippe. "Dawn" hit Gallic theaters in October.
An all-male jury of French journalists voted for the Schneider prize -- awarded since 1984 -- while an all female jury picked Garrel for the Dewaere prize. Replacing the traditional Jean Gabin award, the Dewaere prize is named for French actor Patrick Dewaere, who committed suicide in 1982 at the age of 35.
Up next for Francois is Emmanuel Mouret's June comedy "Fais-moi Plaisir!" while Garrel will again team with Honore for the August release "Non ma fille, tu n'iras pas danser."
Last year's prizes went to Audrey Dana and Jocelyn Quivrin. The media-heavy ceremony lit up the Hotel de Ville as guests including CNC president Veronique Cayla sipped champagne before the afterparty moved to Paris nightclub the VIP room.

The Menominee Nation is trying to persuade Gov. Scott Walker to green-light their plans for an off-reservation casino at a former dog track in the city. Walker says approval hinges on new net gambling, community support and consensus from Wisconsin's other tribes. The Ho-Chunk Nation and the Forest County Potawatomi have both objected to the proposal.
Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald, a Juneau Republican, released a column Wednesday saying approval could lead to a proliferation of off-reservation gambling. He also says Republican job creation policies will do more to help Kenosha's economy than a casino.

Dreaming Lyrics - Man Overboard
I took the same route to school.
I'm almost late again, even though I woke up at six AM.
I've been dreaming of something that right now is still nothing
but it could become my world once the day is through.
She could become my everything or a whisper in my ear
across a highway. I would cross a highway to catch you.
To catch you would be all that I can honestly ask for from you.
It's something about the way she falls back asleep.
It's eight-thirty and in her textbook she's waist deep.
And it could be a sign when she wakes up she's looking at me.
Right at me.
And I don't know how many times
that I would have to ask her if I'm dreaming.
The way her hair falls on top of her shoulders
makes me feel like screaming.
