Author information
Robert M. Pirsig was born in 1928 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He holds degrees in chemistry, philosophy, and journalism and also studied Oriental philosophy at Benares Hindu University in India. He is the author of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and Lila.
Review quote
"Profoundly important...full of insights into our most perplexing contemporary dilemmas" New York Times "Mr Pirsig has written a work of great, perhaps urgent, importance... Read this book" Observer "The book is inspired, original...the narrative tact, the perfect economy of effect defy criticism. The analogies with Moby Dick are patent" New Yorker "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is an unforgettable trip" Time "Disturbing, deeply moving, full of insights...this is a wonderful book" Times Literary Supplement
Editorial reviews
A remarkable classic, at last back in print. It is not (of course) about motorcycle maintenance. It is a guide, a life support system, a novel, a philosophical treatise, an attempt to analyse life, an examination of the nature of space and time... all things to most men (and women). The archetypal mind-stretching book. (Kirkus UK)

Tabloid Side Effects
Generic Name: thioguanine
Note: This page contains side effects data for the generic drug thioguanine. It is possible that some of the dosage forms included below may not apply to the brand name Tabloid.
It is possible that some side effects of Tabloid may not have been reported. These can be reported to the FDA here. Always consult a healthcare professional for medical advice.
For the Consumer
Applies to thioguanine: oral tablet
Along with their needed effects, medicines like thioguanine (the active ingredient contained in Tabloid) can sometimes cause unwanted effects such as blood problems and other side effects. These and others are described below. Also, because of the way these medicines act on the body, there is a chance that they might cause other unwanted effects that may not occur until months or years after the medicine is used. These delayed effects may include certain types of cancer, such as leukemia. Discuss these possible effects with your doctor.
Although not all of these side effects may occur, if they do occur they may need medical attention.
If any of the following side effects occur while taking thioguanine, check with your doctor immediately:More common
- Black, tarry stools
- blood in urine or stools
- cough or hoarseness
- fever or chills
- lower back or side pain
- painful or difficult urination
- pinpoint red spots on skin
- unusual bleeding or bruising
If any of the following side effects occur while taking thioguanine, check with your doctor or nurse as soon as possible:Less common
- Joint pain
- swelling of feet or lower legs
- unsteadiness when walking
- Sores in mouth and on lips
- yellow eyes or skin
- Abdominal or stomach pain
- bloated abdomen
- chest pain or discomfort
- cough or hoarseness
- coughing up blood
- dark urine
- dizziness
- fainting
- fatigue
- headache
- hives
- itching
- light-colored stools
- loss of appetite
- lower back or side pain
- nausea
- pain and fullness in right upper abdomen
- pale skin
- purple- or red-colored spots on body or inside the mouth or nose
- rash
- shortness of breath
- sore throat
- swollen glands
- unpleasant breath odor
- unusual tiredness or weakness
- vomiting
- vomiting of blood
- weight gain
Some thioguanine side effects may not need any medical attention. As your body gets used to the medicine these side effects may disappear. Your health care professional may be able to help you prevent or reduce these side effects, but do check with them if any of the following side effects continue, or if you are concerned about them:Less common
- Diarrhea
- loss of appetite
- nausea and vomiting
- skin rash or itching
After you stop taking this drug, it is possible that you may still experience side effects that need medical attention. If you notice any of the following side effects check with your doctor immediately:
- Black, tarry stools
- blood in urine or stools
- cough or hoarseness
- fever or chills
- lower back or side pain
- painful or difficult urination
- pinpoint red spots on skin
- unusual bleeding or bruising
For Healthcare Professionals
Applies to thioguanine: oral tablet
Because thioguanine (the active ingredient contained in Tabloid) may have delayed effect, the drug should be withdrawn temporarily at the first sign of an abnormally large fall in any of the formed elements of the blood.
Hyperuricemia can be minimized by increased hydration, urine alkalinization, and the prophylactic administration of a xanthine oxidase inhibitor such as allopurinol.
Hematologic side effects including myelosuppression have been reported. Myelosuppression is the most frequent adverse reaction to thioguanine and may appear as anemia, leukopenia, and/or thrombocytopenia. The induction of complete remission of acute myelogenous leukemia usually requires combination chemotherapy in dosages which produce marrow hypoplasia. Since consolidation and maintenance of remission are also affected by multiple drug regimens whose component agents cause myelosuppression, pancytopenia is observed in nearly all patients.
Hyperuricemia frequently occurs in patients receiving thioguanine as a consequence of rapid cell lysis accompanying the antineoplastic effect.
Life-threatening infection and bleeding have been observed as consequences of thioguanine-induced granulocytopenia and thrombocytopenia.
Gastrointestinal side effects including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, anorexia, and stomatitis have been reported. Intestinal necrosis and perforation have been reported in patients who received multiple drug chemotherapy which included thioguanine (the active ingredient contained in Tabloid)
If severe diarrhea and/or stomatitis develop, a decrease in dosage may be appropriate.
Hepatic side effects including veno-occlusive liver disease have been reported. A case of peliosis hepatitis has been reported. Liver enzyme and other liver function studies are occasionally abnormal.
If jaundice, hepatomegaly, or anorexia with tenderness in the right hypochondrium occurs, thioguanine should be withheld until the exact etiology can be determined.
Respiratory side effects including esophageal varices have been reported in patients receiving continuous busulfan and thioguanine (the active ingredient contained in Tabloid) therapy. Nasal congestion and rhinorrhea have been reported with high dose IV therapy.
Renal side effects including nephrotoxicity have been reported in high-dose therapy.
Dermatologic side effects including the development of painful erythematous swelling of the palms and soles occurring several days after courses of therapy, have been reported in 5 women on cytarabine, doxorubicin, and thioguanine (the active ingredient contained in Tabloid) Alopecia has also been reported.
Other side effects including malaise, lethargy, weakness, ataxia, and loss of vibratory sensation have been reported.
Cardiovascular side effects have been reported. In one study, two of thirteen patients administered 700 mg/m2 intravenously developed bradycardia and nonspecific T-wave flattening, which resolved within 3 hours. In another study, five of nineteen patients administered 1000 mg/m2 intravenously demonstrated minor changes: bradycardia (two patients), nonspecific ST- and T-wave changes (five), and P-wave changes (one).

A little about me...
Turning to this venue to meet a "match"certainly is different but it is ,after all,the era of the ubiquitous internet.Why not go down this trail to see if it leads to someplace interesting.
About me?I'm a fairly fit 58y.o. who still enjoys going to the gym 3-5 ties/wk. although the work-outs are just a little less intense nowadays.I also walk 2-3miles/day(don't run anymore unless necessary---yikes).Occasionally I get up to Shenandoah for some more serious hiking(Old Rag,Mary's Rock).
Last summer I climbed into a kayak for the first time and really took to paddling along.A kayak purchase is in my future.I do enjoy the water having been raised on Bay.Throughout my teens I was fortunate enough to have my own outboard(Chincoteague scow) and fished,clammed,&crabbed my hometown creek.
Over the years I've become somewhat ensconced to home but will readily venture out for,for instance,an evening of music in venues large and small.String quartets are nice but I really enjoy a hot bluegrass ensemble.
Other likes?Day tripping,weekend getaways,varied cuisines(but not too spicy hot)Sedona(the Arizona desert)to name some.
I've been unattached for a while but would like to pair w/ a companion for shared activities and perhaps

As everything is hitting the fan toward the end of The Two Towers, the second movie in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, King Théoden asks, "How did it come to this?"

[QUOTE=Borgoguy;4300696]No one does. I've been laughing at the "Shoddy as HC" rumors/pronouncements for three years now. How has he distinguished himself? What innovative offense has he designed and employed in games? What QB has flourished under his tutelage?
Look, unless his Dad has the same file(s) of donkey show photos like the ones with Woody, he's not getting an NFL HC gig. Period. It's hysterical that folks would think a putz like Shoddy would even be attractive to the most desperate of owners. What, he's going to turn around and shepherd a franchise? Right.[/QUOTE]
LOL agreed. Our only salvation in this BS returning situation would be a tremendous upgrade in talent on offense... i.e., a big time WR and high quality RT.

Mar 19, 2011I have to completely agree with the negative reviews submitted here, so much that i subscribed to metacritic in the hope to warn other gamers of this atrocity. Firstly, Single player campaign, to put bluntly, GASH, too short, poor graphics, dialogue, lack of originality, empty, cliche ridden characters, just poorly designed really. It's glitch ridden, full of invisible walls, and at times i've had to reboot my ps3 because my character freezes in one fixed position and i'm unable to shoot or run, if i look around there is nothing obstructing me, i'm just locked. Oh, and the game has frozen on 3 separate occasions too. Online i was hoping for more, but again it's a mess. Having on countless occasions emptied entire magazines into enemy opposition, only for them to turn round and kill me with ONE SHOT, i have no other course of action other than to trade in this piece of **** Again online i have experienced being unable to move, thus being gunned down whilst i'm wide open, getting killed by, er ........... NOBODY!, literally, respawn in a building, walk a few feet then crumple in a bloody mess, no killcam, no, YOU WERE KILLED BY MR SO AND SO, just dead. What the **** up with that? So please, save your money, buy something else, KZ3, Black Ops, whatever, just not this, people knock COD, yes it has flaws, few don't, but compared to this steaming pile of ****e it's a **** masterpiece.… Expand
Mar 16, 2011When you cannot open ANY door in the game by yourself. When you don't care about characters or storyline even in the most dramatic moments...well, that game have some issues
Mar 16, 2011First impression: great concept, poor execution. Diving in, the first thing I notice is that the dialog is cheesy and the story progression is predictable- somewhere between the movie 2012 and a late night infomercial. If you like either, you might not mind. The plot has all the basics: a hot chick, a tough guy, and certain promise of driving a vehicle, flying some kind of aerial combat mission, and a sniper level... then of course, the predictable story hook: getting you angry and in search of revenge, and feeding you some immediate action... But overall the game falls short of carving a new niche for a FPS. As far as the gameplay mechanics- Maybe I'm de-sensitized from some exciting recent shooters which offer unique tools like cover and team tactics... But in playing the first few levels, it feels like the game has gone back a few years in gameplay development, borrowing from games like Half Life or Rainbow 6... but overall it feels like some OG Doom game or something similar. Nothing comparable to Modern Warfare 2 or Medal of Honor (though I'm sure each have their critics too). Overall it feels like "just another shooter" with a cheesy, predictable story, B-side dialog script and acting, and poor gameplay mechanics. I guess THQ thinks we will be satisfied by giving us a new setting and decent graphics to shoot in to tie us over until the next shooter comes out... they got my $50 that I wish I didn't spend, so I guess I'll play it until the next game comes out. But I won't be waiting on pins and needles for the next offering from THQ. This one's a dud.… Expand
Mar 16, 2011Stop encouraging them. Buying games like this just encourages them to keep doing it. It is a popular scheme nowadays to just copy another game entirely, hype like no other, add a pre-order bonus, and rake in the launch day money.
They will NOT patch, they will act like the game doesn't even exist.
Mar 15, 2011Single played is only 5-7 hours, and horribly designed.
And I don't want to play with some smirmy **** called "Multi-Players."
Games with good multi-players (TF2, GMOD, Assasins Creed : Brotherhood, ECT ECT) At least have decent single-Player.
Don't buy this ****
If you can stand the **** called "Multi-Players" And can stand a terrible, short, and awkward campaig- Infact this isn't for you even if you can, Because you're **** insane!… Expand
Mar 17, 2011Concept: 10
Graphics: 2
Verdict: 3.5
Absolutely one of the worst games I've ever played. I think it's almost as bad as ET for the Atari 2600.
Mar 16, 2011First time to deal with online passes - very angry. Just another way to sap more $$$$ out of the end user. So, everyone in my house has to pony up another $10 ???!!?!. Forget it! Last THQ title I'll be buying!
Mar 16, 2011This game is absolute ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am not the kind of person that ever cares about rating things and what not but i pre-ordered this **** and waited for a new shooter with an awesome story and what did I get...the worst game I have ever played thats what! I created this account on here just to complain about this game because I'm so pissed at how much hype they put out there and rendered preview videos that make it look better than it really is. The graphics are HORRIBLE! The physics are HORRIBLE! The guns are HORRIBLE! The sounds are HORRIBLE! The dialog is HORRIBLE! I could go on all ******* day! **** you THQ and KAOS! I'm not the only one that feels this way too. WHY DO YOU THINK YOU"RE STOCK DROPPED SO MUCH THQ? ******* IDIOTS!… Expand
Mar 18, 2011Rogue Mar 18, 20110 Let me begin by saying I was a big fan of Frontlines Fuel of War both single player and multiplayer. When I heard KAOS was developing another game I was hoping for a sequel less the glitches, lag, etc. Like many of you I was checking the status of this greatly anticipated game on youtube for videos and various other websites for any information I could get. When the release date was set counting down the days began only to have it pushed back. Okay I thought, I'd rather see a delay then for them to release a game of poor quality. I was wrong, regrettably very wrong! Homefront could have been great; Homefront could have been ground breaking both in premise and game play. Like I said earlier; Frontlines was fantastic, so good in fact some of the "Big Guys"copied ideas from it such as drones etc. The battle point system was a great addition instead of kill streaks which more than likely will and should be copied by other developers. The single player is way to short, the graphics are average to say the least and the movement of your character is like he has a 20 pound dump in his pants! His movements are slow, methodical and not crisp or sharp like other FPS games. Multiplayer is a joke, that's if you can get in a game at all, joining friends is virtually impossible. It went from dedicated servers to P2P because they underestimated the online attraction; they're in the gaming industry right? MP is what many people play day in and day out and these guys are not prepared? All 16 player games will now be hosted on P2P not dedicated. Multiplayer is a camper / sniper haven make no mistake, the weapon selection is poor and the fact you can't add more than one attachment to your weapon is a joke. No sight and silencer, pick and choose WTF! All the while your character is still running around with a dump in his pants. Overall this game is a failure in every way, with such high hopes it pales in comparison to other FPS games past or present. Save your money and rent if you have to. Don't spend 60.00 or even 20.00 for this game, soon enough it will be in the bargain bin or on ebay for 8.00 to 10.00 dollars. Complete and utter fail KAOS you should be embarrassed and ashamed!… Expand
Mar 18, 2011Whoops accidentally posted the Dragon age 2 review. Well anyway the basic summary from the PC mag I read said great on PC but watch out for poor ports on consoles. THIS IS A FACT.
I played this on PS3 and it sucked, repetitious unhelpful dialogue ie. shoot the hummers, see previous statement multiple times. You will ask yourself there arenâ
Mar 22, 2011I wrote a review earlier giving the game a 8 but i had to delete that review and now it gets a 1 this is because the story is short only 5 hours max, but now the Multiplayer mode is unplayable, youll either freeze when you get in a match or youll sit in a empty lobby till you idle out, freeze again, or get kicked cause there wasnt enough people to play wiht....i was holding out for the first patch which came with no impact, if anything it made the freezing worse...and now they said thier next patch will be out when its ready, which means it hasnt gone to sony for approval yet so at least another week. At this point all of my clan mates have traded the game in, im now the only one and im going to trade it in as well...by time the next patch comes out the game will have nobody playing it anymore.… Expand
Mar 22, 2011Oh My, it took me only 3 hours to play the single part, and so I spent even time to look at the graphics in the pitches, but I feel cheated, the game is not 66 $ worth, which I have given for it in Denmark, highest 15 $ worth, I wonder why there are pirates when it comes to games, and so even with Steam, so I can not even resell it.
I do not buy more games that requires a Steam account.
This game is a failure, can you get your money refunded from the company, should be an option when they screwed people. Only buy this game if you can find it for 10-15 $… Expand

Apr 8, 2011Another game that I genuinely wanted to like... but couldn't. I was hoping for a title that would break the CoD stranglehold on the FPS market. Instead all I got was yet another sad clone. The gameplay is EXACTLY the same as CoD, EXACTLY. Only difference here being slightly stronger story potential. Slightly and potential, being the operative words here, and when you consider the "attempting to be controversial" trash that has passed for CoD fare lately, that's not hard. Unfortunately, the promise of the story is never fulfilled... the game ends, cliffhanger style, just when things start to get interesing... an obvious alert to a potential sequel. A sequel I won't be playing. Let's be honest, though, if this was titled CoD:Homeland... all of the pro reviewers would be singing it's praises, lol.… Expand
Mar 22, 2011This game seems like a rushed project intended to capitalize on a unique idea. Homefront's story is an interesting ad fresh concept with extremely poor delivery. Other than the story, very little about this game is new or interesting. It has the exact same controls as Call of Duty, except you are fighting Koreans and Japanese rather than people of the Middle East. The outline of the story is neat, but the characters and level design are incredibly boring. A rental at best.… Expand
Mar 22, 2011This is an all time low for me. I really gave this a shot, played through the campaign with an open mind before i was going to try the multiplayer. The campaign was short, buggy and crappy designed. I could head from the street into a house first, then Connor would shout at me as he finally entered the house: "Get inside the house!". This stupid choreographic errors are all over the place. To top it all, they use voices/actors from South Park, which didn't exactly add to the "seriousness" the game tries to offer. I was initially thinking of giving this game a 4 for the single player. Then come the MP. It's at times kinda OK, I was just trying it out to get the feel of it. So I was deciding to start playing it a bit heavier, and register the "Battle Code" included in the box. I entered the code, and it wasn't accepted. Invalid code or wrong entered or something was the message. But I was certain I checked the code was entered right, and it was a brand new game, preordered to boot. And the effing code was invalid! So I thought "OK, I don't need the extra XP, and just kept playing. But then, after reaching level 5, I couldn't level up any more until I entered the "Battle Code"! I have written THQ.com twice about this. So far no reply other than "Thanks for contacting us" from a noreply email. This made me quite sick of the game, and I went back to GameStop. Of course they tell me to contact the maker (THQ). Sick of the game I just "traded" it in and got $20 back for the crap.Due to the MP part of the game flunking big time, I give this crap a total of 1 out of 10. Save your money, and don't buy this game. This "Battle Code" idea is a very, VERY bad idea. And No!, I don't want to buy a "Battle Code" on eBay. My guess is that hackers cracked the codes, selling them on eBay, rendering codes in gameboxes unusable.
Btw THQ.com gets a 0 (zero) for their total lack of response and effort to try to solve this mess.
GAH!… Expand
This is the shortest game i ever played.....I can't believe someone actually said it was a 7 hour gameplay where its no more than 3 hours. poor graphics, incomplete storyline, average sound effects, the only thing acceptable are the controls where it really doesn't make a difference. Never tried the multiplayer and i don't think i will.....if your bored of all other FPS games out there, rent it out, otherwise don't bother your not missing anything… Collapse
Jun 19, 2012This game feels like it was purposefully made with its flaws, so that it could be called "Modern FPS games in a nutshell". Why? Because the game shares almost EVERY problem 99.9999% of the modern FPS games share.
Lets start with singleplayer. Way too linear? Check. Stupid AI? Check. Way too scripted? Check. Way too short? Check. Ok, that went quick.
What about multiplayer? Vehicles too powerful compared to other battle point rewards? Check. One-wait. This is going to take too long to just list. Let me shorten that by checking only two things. Way-too-low-skill-gap-made-by-creating-the-damn-kills-way-too-easy-to-acquire? Check. This game sucks? Check.
But it has dedicated servers! Lets uncheck "This game uses only p2p system." Uncheck. But it still sucks!… Expand
Apr 30, 2011I struggled to get on with it but that may be down to me just being bored with FPS's now. It had some great set pieces and harrowing levels with real punch BUT it just didn't resonate with me. Maybe it helps to be American to have that inner feeling of oppression and defense of one's country. Were it based in the UK it may have felt more relevant and less OTT.
I am awaiting an FPS which isn't just a COD clone. Could Battlefield 3 be it?… Expand
Apr 1, 2011What a disappointing game this turned out to be. I was so looking forward to this and after that final trailer I was hooked. I started out playing MP and loved it! However I was shocked by how bad the graphics were. I thought Black Ops graphics were bad but this took it to a lower level. This game looks like a year 2000 game. Play a couple of FANTASTIC hours of Killzone 3 SP or MP and then come back and play Homefront and you will be shocked! I was having fun and then 2 level ups later the lock up/freezes started. These freezes made me hard reset my PS3! 17 freezes later I started to really worry about my PS3's health. So at level 10 I stopped playing MP and started looking at the forums. A ton of gamers like me were experiencing the same problem. The wait for the patch started. Finally a patch came and made the freezing worse. 25 freezes and the MP is unplayable. I cannot tell you how many times I sat in a lobby by myself waiting for players. It also froze on my many times while I was waiting in the lobby! I was so disappointed and angry. With MP dead I started the SP campaign hoping they would get a patch out by the time I completed the SP. I started SP on Guerrilla mode which is the hardest. There were only a few areas that I had trouble with. The SP was extremely short and I took my time. I was able to only get near 6 hours out of the SP on the hardest mode!!! The story had a great start and then just fizzled to a lifeless mess. The Characters were horrible and the pacing was atrocious. You could never run ahead of your friends because you would instantly get killed. If you waited for them it would take forever to get to the next segment because they would walk and I am talking about a very slow walk! I didn't care for any of them and just wanted to get through the game. The banter between my teammates was very poorly written. The game had the worst abrupt ending that made me think that they didn't have any idea how finish the game. I immediately read 2 days after I got the game that they were already making Homefront 2 and that they would make the SP longer if the players wanted it. I am sitting here reading this crap and thinking why not put the effort into the first game before you start making or talking about a sequel!!! Seriously the end of the game was bad. It will take Homefront 1 and 2 SP portions to equal a true "1 Game" SP experience. Well, I finally got fed up and returned the game after a week of 30 PS3 freezes. Thankfully A*mazon was able to give me a full refund. A*mazon is my number 1 place to buy my games after this fiasco. Please if it says KAOS Studios DO NOT, DO NOT BUY THE GAME! This company took the Massively Multiplayer idea of raking in the premier first weeks money and then moving on. Right now, even though I don't have the game, went to their forums and there is still no fix for the freezing and lonely lobby issues. EPIC FAIL!!! Oh yeah, I gave it a 1 because when the MP worked I had a great time.… Expand
Mar 16, 2011This is no way a bad game, it also is in no way an amazing game.
Homefront main selling point was supposedly the campaign being written by the great John Milius (Red dawn, Apocalypse now), but it seriously falls short both in content and overall feel. You're supposed to be a guerrilla fighter against insurmountable odds, but often you mow down loads of enemy forces with ease and we reach the common place CoD style objectives and run through of the campaign saturating the market. If you can appreciate what they try to do both story and game wise, you'll enjoy the campaign.
Multiplayer is where the title shines boasting both common and new ways to dominate online. Think Battlefield feeling like Call of Duty and that's what you get with the multiplayer component. Expect a balanced and great multiplayer that draws a lot from modern shooters, while taking out the negative aspects.
It's worth picking up based on the multiplayer alone if you're that kind of customer, but if you plan on picking it up for the singleplayer expect to be disappointed by its length and depth.… Expand

May 20, 2011so disappointed in this game. no more dedicated servers and it's still unplayable online, it looks terrible (really terrible) and the campaign is frustrating and short. it reminds me of the old woody allen joke: "the food at that restaurant is awful." "i know! and such small portions!"
if you can get into a game online it feels like homefront wants to be MAG (which is one of the most awesome online FPS ever, IMO) but comes nowhere close. one aspect of HF's online play that i did find cool was the drones. also the points/in-game rewards system was much better than COD's (the best for my money is medal of honor's system which utilizes game points, not just kills, for streak rewards.)
overall there are some good ideas here but the end product is just a waste of those ideas.… Expand
Apr 27, 2011Wow. I had such anticipation for this game. I am a member of an adult gaming community of over 1000 members. Over 40 of us were getting this for PS3. We all ran out and got it and within 3 days half of the 40 had completely given up on this game. Between poor party making, poor servers, terrible lag, and being unable to join a match at all, the experience was more than just frustrating. So as one of the few who ended up keeping the game in hopes the issues would be fixed (they still aren't), I experienced the far too short and outdated graphics of the single player campaign. I would NOT buy this game if youre in the market for a new game. While the multiplayer definitely has potential, the problems far outweigh the good. Matter of fact, this may be the last game I pre-order.....EVER.… Expand
Aug 27, 2011Terrible game. I beat the multiplayer in one day, and it was boring and a rip off of MW2. Played the multiplayer, it was mediocre, but it takes more than a crappy campaign and mediocre multiplayer to make a good game.
Dec 1, 2011The game is broken doesn't work half the time freezes up and would of been an okay game maybe if they could of worked out the bugs but they just gave up on the game no support for it anymore it's dead in the water now
Sep 14, 2013I was at my local gamestop recently and they had a local bargain bin and in it I picked up this game for $3.14 figuring that at such a low price, I couldn't foresee a reason why I would get some enjoyment out of this game. I mean I only paid $3.14.
Start playing the game and the plot immediately strikes me as straight up retarded for a variety of reasons, mostly relating to the fact I pay attention to Asian politics. Yet the game's story itself is equally as bad as the setup. You start out with a black protagonists, who and shocker here, doesn't say a thing...ever. From there you are subjected to stupid set pieces of "Evil North Koreans" committing atrocities. I suppose this is supposed to make the games heroes relatable, but it just comes across as an annoying set of bs that I can't skip. Then the game goes even stupider in the rescue attempt which should have literally killed you. Miraculously you survive unscathed and follow them as they make bad decision after bad decision in one of the worst Call of Duty Clones I have ever played.
Honestly the only thing this game has going for it, is some pretty decent guns and even those are overshadowed by the horrible regenerating health system that won't let you take more than a couple shots before having to duck behind cover. This wouldn't be a problem, but the game is la shooting gallery, die and you can enjoy having to gun your way through the same 20-30 NPCs again.
In the end, the story is bad, the game play is barely passable and for me just unenjoyable, you are forced to go along with every stupid decision that the characters make, and ultimately it isn't worth your time. Sure I got the game cheap, but the time I have to put into this game feels like a waste. Just straight up avoid getting this game, there are better uses of your time, like chewing $3 worth of gum while looking at 14 cents.… Expand
Aug 12, 2014One of the worst games I have in my shelf. The story is short, it's not catching, graphics are bad and I found the idea of using Koreans as the evil ones very childish, because I see it as an attempt of the developers to make this game 'special' in some way. Let me explain better: usual FPS' evil character are Russian, and that's fair. I love Russian people, but I say that because I can see a reason for using Russians as enemies: since Russia and America have always been in competition/war in the '900, I find it fair to use Russians as the 'evil ones' in American games set in '900 (or they just shifted the idea to modern days). But why Koreans? The reason is not even explained in the game, there's just a war. Fight it. Kill them. Game completed.… Expand

May 24, 2011The story is way too short and the multiplayer doesn't deliver the fun you know from the Call of Duty or Battlefield games.
May 17, 2011I'll admit that I've played games that are technically worse than Homefront, but I have not played a game that irritated me as much as this in a very long time.
Apr 20, 2011There isn't really a climax. It just finishes, coitus interruptus-style. [May 2011, p.114]

Which Todd English Restaurant?
Which Todd English restaurant has the best food?
Long, very recent discussion of Todd English's restaurants' relative merits here:
I agree with NiKoLe1625: Figs is my favorite of that lot. I'm only familiar with the Charlestown and Beacon Hill outlets.
Since this is the Boston board, it's probably not appropriate to say that I thought Tuscany at Mohegan Sun was the worst expensive restaurant I've been to in the USA outside of Las Vegas.
re: MC Slim JB
In the summer I sometimes order a pizza to go from Figs on Charles street and take it to the Public Garden to picnic. Every time we ate there we had such awful service that we finally decided that there was a nightly contest with a big prize for the server who made the least contact with customers during the night.
I was amazed that in a space that tiny the servers could make it through the room entirely without eye contact with anyone.
re: BostonZest
The manager of the Welleley Figs that closed, Donna, is now the manager at the Beacon Hill location of Figs. She is amazing, keeping an eye on everything, food, waitstaff, customers, crayons in her pockets for kids etc. I would be surprised if she has not transformed the service and atmosphere at the Figs on Charles Street.. I recommend you give it another try.
I think you can still get a good meal at the Charlestown Olives; the executive chef there is pretty good. And you can get AMAZING skirt steak tacos at Bonfire.
It's really a shame. Todd English is such a talented Chef, but I don't think it's any secret that he's spread himself too thin. He's not the only one doing that.
Id take my business to a place where the chef is in the house.
The first time we went to Olives our table of eight was opposite the bar and the man himself was seated there. Not in the kitchen, but having a conversation with a member of his staff.
I cannot remember what I ordered, but I do remember the oyster apps were delicious.
The service was fine, considering we had with us a 13y/o who was a very picky eater. Our waiter did everything possible to make this boy's dining experience there a happy one.
re: Gio
i've never had a bad experience at Olives. The service has been great every time and the food has always been very good also. When a friend of mine that I recommended the restaurant to had a bad experience there i was really shocked because I have always enjoyed the place. I know this is the boston board, but my mom ate at English is Italian in manhatten (without knowing it was a Todd English restaurant) and LOVED it!
re: NiKoLe1625
Wonder when that was. It has not gotten good reviews here. The NY Olives is MUCH better.

Who couldn't use some extra blood, er, plasma money?
If you read my previous article on donating plasma through Biolife Plasma Services, you know that I have been making some extra money donating plasma. I want to give an update about the pros and cons that I have experienced during my donation process so that you can make an informed decision about getting some extra "blood money". I have pretty much been donating twice a week on Mondays and Saturdays (you can't donate more than twice during any 7 day period) because that gives my arms plenty of time to heal. I probably won't keep this donation rotation up on a regular basis as sitting in the donation chair for about an hour at a time can get a little monotonous even if you have your cellphone to play with and/or watch movies. It is serving its purpose for now and I am happy to get the extra spending cash.
1. You can usually earn up to $240.00 a month if you donate all 8 eligible times. It is a decent amount of extra scratch that can be used to pay bills, save for the future or maybe upgrade your cell phone to the next best thing.
2. The website makes scheduling donation times a breeze and you can usually get in very quickly to donate at your appointed time. If you check the website about 2 days before your donation you can usually get the donation time you want.
3. They do a very good job of taking your vitals and getting you processed for donating very quickly. It can usually be done within 5 minutes or so after you answer your computerized questionnaire.
4. The machine that they use can quickly process the plasma out of your blood (through a disposable centrifuge) and return the blood back to you while keeping the plasma. The process is automated and usually works flawlessly.
5. Once you have been "stuck" by a needle in your arm you will be given credit for a donation no matter what...even if you can't donate that day. So at least you know you are getting paid even if you didn't give plasma.
6. The payment process is quick and simple. The money you earn from a donation is credited to your debit card immediately after your donation and you can go and spend it right then if you want. They also give you the option of "checking out" so you can make another appointment. However, this check-out process is not required and you will still get paid even if you forget.
7. Even though a large corporation is collecting your plasma so they can process it and resell it for a hefty profit, your donation is still doing a world of good. There are many people in America (and the rest of the world) that require weekly therapies for various disorders such as Hemophilia that use your plasma to improve the quality of their lives. When you donate you will directly benefit one (or several) of these people.
8. The facility is very clean and the employees are always very friendly. I was told by one of the workers that they average about 400 people per day at the Austin facility and they always give the impression of being a well oiled machine. I have never had an issue with the cleanliness of the facility or an employee. If I did have an issue, I have no doubt that it would be taken care of.
9. I have never worried about any of the other people donating possibly causing a problem. They do a great job of screening the bad seeds and they never make it to the donation floor with you.
10. The Biolife facility close to me is very easy to access from the highway and has a generous amount of parking spaces. I have never had an issue with finding a parking space or had anything happen to my vehicle while I was donating.
1. If you are able to make it all 8 times to donate during any one month your arms are probably going to pay the price. You will have visible needle marks on both arms and possible bruising from a hematoma that can develop under your skin. If your arm develops a bruise, you can't use that arm for donation until it disappears.
2. If you make an appointment to donate you must make sure that you arrive ten minutes before or ten minutes after your scheduled time. If you miss your appointment, the computer will pick another appointment time if possible. If there isn't one available you will not be able to donate that day.
3. When you go in to get your vitals checked they are making sure that you aren't sick, a junkie or have recently donated with another company. You will also have to get your finger pricked so that your iron and protein levels can be checked. If they are not at acceptable levels (they usually send you to the onsite nurse if there is a question) you will be deferred from donating that day. If you are deferred too many times, you will no longer be allowed to donate.
4. Some people just don't have a good "flow" coming out of their veins and you are required to pump your fist when the cuff around your arm tightens. The machine has green, yellow and red light indicators on it to show how the flow is going. If you can't manage to get the yellow lights to turn green it could add to the time that it takes to complete a donation.
5. Just like with any job the experience (or competence) level of the phlebotomists that insert the IV into your arm can have a wide variance. You will come across some that can get the IV started correctly each time and others not so much. You might even experience some pain as they have to slightly move the needle around inside of your arm if it is not inserted correctly.
6. The debit card that they give you to have your donation funds put on has some hidden fees such as not being able to withdraw from a Chase Bank ATM more than once for free. The first withdrawal is free but the rest are going to cost you.
7. They have a system that is based on you donating two times in a Monday through Saturday week. You always get $20.00 on the first donation and $30.00 or $40.00 on the second donation. If you are only able to donate one time each week, the maximum you will earn in a month is $80.00.
The meat of the potatoes
Overall, I would say that my experience donating more than 10 times with Biolife has been pretty uneventful. The majority of the donations have gone quickly and smoothly without any complaints on my part. I have had some minor bruising on my arms on two different occasions but they healed quickly and without any real pain. I am going to continue going for the perceivable future because I have enjoyed the extra money and it is an easy way to get it.
Important: Always remember to drink water on the night before your donation. This will make it easier for them to find a vein and make the donation process go easier. Also, never drink coffee or eat sweets on the day of your donation. If your pulse is above 100 you will not be allowed to donate.

Reviews for Eye Pencil
Average rating: 4.5 out of 5 hearts
By Ashanti on October 30, 2011
This is THE best eye pencil ever! It goes on smoothly, and its very creamy. The color is dark and shows up very easily. I highly recommend this. I have brown eyes, and I got it in flax seed. Gorgeous!
By Maria on August 13, 2011
Great color, easy to apply.
Purchased "smoulder"—beautiful color for hazel/brown eyes. Soft pencil that goes on easily and lasts.
By Jennifer on August 12, 2011
Almost perfect
This is the best natural eyeliner option that I have found so far. The color is rich (Flax Seed) and it goes on smoothly. The only issue I have with this pencil is that it does tend to dust off from my lower eyelid, just as a previous reviewer stated. I need to keep checking under my eyes throughout the day and do frequent touch ups. It works wonderfully on the top eyelids though and have no complaints there.
By Rbee on February 23, 2011
simply the best.
This is absolutely must have pencil for me, goes on smooth and main thing is that it does not smudge at all.
By Kat on February 18, 2011
Great eye pencil!
Very smooth eye pencil! Goes on nicely and is easily smudgeable for a smoky look. Colour is rich and it stays on all day!
By Jocelyn on February 18, 2011
No need to look further
I got this in flax seed and I love the color. The product goes on smoothly and looks great. It doesn't smudge when you don't want it to and washes off easily. I feel like I've found the one.
By Rose on February 17, 2011
Looks beautiful, lasts a long time!
This eye pencil is easily the best natural eyeliner I have found. It wears beautifully and does not run, like Dr. Hauschka and others. Looks beautiful, lasts a long time!
By Elizabeth on February 16, 2011
Works as expected!
These are classic eye liners — and good for you and the environment! I have both the black and brown, though prefer the black liner most days! I wish the company made a liquid liner too! And maybe a few more colors with a little more bling – like bronze or gold.
By Katie on February 15, 2011
Great for smudging!
Great for smudging. I got the midnight (which is the blackest black). I would say that this might smudge a bit more than you want it to, but if you're good with makeup, you'll figure out how to keep it in control. Love that the ingredients are healthy.
By Lauren on February 15, 2011
Wonderful, but dusts off a bit
wonderful soft pencil that's easy to use and goes a long way. My only complaint is that every few hours I've got to check to make sure some hasn't dusted off and made a faint black line following the crease in my lower eyelid, and maybe reapply it.
From naturally soft to daring and smoky, create instant eye definition with this gentle medium-coverage eyeliner.

MONDAY, Feb. 10, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- West Nile virus-related hospitalizations and follow-up in the United States cost $778 million in health care expenses and lost productivity from 1999 through 2012, which is much higher than previously reported, according to a new study.
That works out to a cost of about $56 million a year over the 14 years examined by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention researchers.
West Nile virus is transmitted by mosquitoes. About one in five people infected with the virus will develop symptoms such as fever, joint pain and headache. However, about one in 150 will develop a serious nervous system (neurologic) condition such as encephalitis or meningitis and require hospitalization, according to an American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene news release.
The researchers examined more than 37,000 cases of West Nile virus reported to the CDC from 1999 through 2012. They found that more than 16,000 patients developed neurologic disease, more than 18,000 were hospitalized and more than 1,500 died. People older than 50 are more likely to develop severe neurologic disease if they're infected with the West Nile virus, the release noted.
The number of West Nile virus disease cases reported to the CDC is likely fewer than the actual number that occurred in the United States since 1999, according to the news release.
For the new study, researchers examined the costs of initial hospitalization of 80 patients and the long-term direct and indirect costs over the next five years. Those costs included medications, doctor visits, and time missed from work or school.
"We believe that previous costs associated with West Nile virus disease have been underestimated because they've predominantly focused on the costs of the initial illness," study lead author Dr. J. Erin Staples, a CDC medical epidemiologist, said in the news release.
"Many hospitalized patients will incur additional medical and indirect costs, and these need to be figured into the burden of [West Nile virus] disease," she said. "Only with accurate figures can public health, academic, and industry officials determine the cost effectiveness of local mosquito-control measures or of developing new drugs and vaccines."
The costs associated with West Nile virus infection varied widely depending on what types of complications patients developed, according to the study published online Feb. 10 in the American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.
"We broke down costs by clinical syndrome and were surprised by what we found," Staples said. "While patients with meningitis had shorter hospital stays than others with neurological syndromes, they were also younger and more likely to miss work, which translated to a higher economic cost in lost productivity."
Meanwhile, encephalitis patients tended to be older. Because many of them were retired, cost related to lost productivity was lower, she noted.
The first human West Nile virus infections in the United States occurred in New York City in late summer 1999, and the virus spread across the entire continental U.S. in less than five years, according to the release. A number of experimental vaccines are being tested but none is available to the public.

Try this free component and modules. Hopefully you all like this.
I like your component. But it has to be rated as fair. To be honest: It should be: poor. But maybe the developers stick into this issue of no SEO at all?? It is a usefull tool, but unfortunately there is mass duplicate page title. Every testimonial has the same page title. If you have a pagination this duplicates again. It is just called as the menuitem is named. This is not that good. Everybody knows the importance of SEO and everybody wants to avoid DC and Duplicate page titel and stuff. I did a post at your website, but no answer. Seems that your component is not well coded. Looks like it is made in the last century, sorry for pointing that out. But knowadways SEO is such a important thing and it can not be skipped. Maybe you answer here at JED? Why don´t you release a fix for this issue? It is known for long a time, but nothing happens. Seems that the customer service is not the best. Sorry for saying, but someone of the team of rswebsols.com should stick into this issue. Seems that no one has thought about SEO when coding this nice component. Thats very sad. Seems that is was a quick and dirty solution ;-( Very frustrating
kind regards
Needless to say this crap has been uninstalled and i rather use another..!!!
- Sometimes it happens when server performs slowly. We think you access our website in some point when the server performance was slow. It happens in every server.
- If you are facing any problem then at first you need to contact us via support forum or via support email. We are always dedicated to solve any kind of issue you are facing. Just contact us and we will surely help you. But we are feeling really bad because you did not give us a chance to solve the issue and provided a bad feedback here.
All in all, amazing!
Criticism: Updating was very difficult. As I am using it with German language files, when I updated the component did not work right anymore. I had to reset the language file and saw that many parts had been added; I then had to manually edit all entries again. Would be great if new parts could just be added to the ini file instead of having to rewrite it all again.
Possible next update: Would it be possible to answer to the testimonials? I would love to give feedback on what people wrote.
Awesome extension!!!
What I think would make it better:
1. Have categories
2. Link to website
3. Allow link inside testimonial
If there is a format that will allow the link please let me know.
The only gripe I had was the need to install the FLEXIcontent addition.
It easy to get lost in the configuration but if you take the time to read through all the options, you'll figure it out in no time.
When I did have a question, I posted it to the author's website and had a response within 24 hours.
Quick access to the CSS file.
Rapid response from developer.
Settings system could be better with dropdowns or check boxes instead of click to edit.
All round really excellent Extension :)
Many thanks
Thanks, Souvik for a flawless component.

Bramshall Park tennis lesson cancelled by unclaimed dog mess
Posted: March 14, 2014|
DOG fouling has become such a problem at the town's tennis courts that it was unable to host coaching sessions, it has been revealed.
Martin Blencowe, chairman of Uttoxeter and District Tennis Club, said members were 'losing the will to live' as the dog foul continued to blight the tennis courts at Bramshall Park, despite dogs not even being allowed on the courses.
Before each session, the coach and chairman is tasked with cleaning off the course with water and disinfectant before the pupils can even get onto the courts but Saturday proved the final straw as the problem had become so bad the sessions had to be cancelled.
Councillor Blencowe (pictured), who sits on East Staffordshire Borough Council, said: "Unfortunately the action of the rain does not help other than to wash it into the porous surface and make it difficult to clean off. Prior to many tennis sessions, I and the coach have cleaned it off with water and disinfectant in the past.
"It has to be properly clean or else the tennis balls pick up the residue and transfer it to the hands of the players with the resultant health risk. This time round we lost the will to live.
"East Staffordshire Borough Council officers are on the case and will do a thorough clean but we do rely on the public to behave responsibly and keep their dogs off the courts. Signs are clearly visible but perhaps they do not realise the problems it creates.
"As we move into the spring and summer and the park and its facilities become more heavily used it would be helpful if we could raise awareness of this."
Councillor Sonia Andjelkovic, the council's deputy leader for regulatory services, said: "We are aware of an issue with dog fouling at Bramshall Park, particularly the tennis courts. The area is being thoroughly and regularly cleaned by the council's contractors.
"Officers from the council's community and civil enforcement team regularly patrol this area and are authorised to issue £75 Fixed Penalty Notices to anyone who fails pick up after their dog.
"Where individual dog owners do not desist from this anti-social behaviour the council can take prosecution proceedings.
"We would encourage anyone who witnesses this offence taking place to contact the council with dates and times of the offence, along with a description of the dog and owner by emailing email@example.com or calling 01283 508856.
"All reports will be treated in the strictest of confidence."
