text: Hello. I'm Fiona Wallice, web therapist. And I'm here at the offices of Harper's Bazaar. I've submitted an article for them commenting on the spring fashions and well, I can only assume they were immensely pleased. They even went out of their way to give me a gift of candy at a fashion magazine. It's so perfectly appropriate that they would offer fattening foods to women, right? They've asked me to come in and speak with you. I'm not sure why. I think they wanted me to do a little more work, which I'm not sure that they're entitled to ask me to do. So, instead, I can just give you some highlights of what I've already written. You know, I just looked at some of the bigger designers Prabal Gurung. I don't know even how to pronounce it, oh well, one of those flyby nights. Fendi, for example, had a lot of red, which appeals to me. I'm not wearing it today. It is a color of power and intensity and passion, and I think I embody all of those qualities. And I know that it's not for everybody, in fact, it's for very few. But if you want to try to wear it, you certainly can, I don't think anyone would laugh. The one thing that I think it's interesting about white is that so many women try to wear it who are older than, well, all right, I actually say anyone over 29 should steer clear of white. White is the symbol of purity. I think that there are very few women who can pull it off and they all live in New York City. We also talked about color blocking, it's a very technical fashion term and I'm not part of the fashion world, although I do put myself together well, I think. And as I said here, I really think that it's for certain types of people, you know, who are rather outgoing. But I think it also could work with the depressive types who don't say much and don't enjoy eye contact. Oh, these I thought were fun. This is Stella McCartney. Can you really possibly imaging anybody wearing this anywhere? All right. Well, I don't know how long that took, 3 minutes, you know, it's one session. So, I think I went well over that. So you're welcome.

Dáil Éireann - Volume 565 - 09 April, 2003
Written Answers. - Foreign Conflicts.
Mr. English Mr. English
57. Mr. English asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs the state of progress in establishing democracy and independence in East Timor. [10031/03]
Mr. Cowen Mr. Cowen
Minister for Foreign Affairs (Mr. Cowen): Timor Leste became a sovereign state on 20 May 2002. A decision to establish diplomatic relations with Timor Leste was taken by the Government on 15 October 2002. Last month, the Government announced that Ireland had accorded Timor Leste programme country status for development co-operation purposes. This announcement is recognition of the significant progress made to date in Timor Leste, and demonstrates our continuing commitment to the political and socio-economic development of Timor Leste, and to the promotion of good governance and human rights in these crucial formative years. The Ireland Aid Timor Leste country strategy covers the period 2003-05, and provides for funding of more than €11 million.
My colleague, the Minister of State with responsibility for overseas development and human rights, Deputy Kitt, visited Timor Leste from 9-13 March 2003, and met with President Gusmao, Prime Minister Alkatiri, the special representative of the United Nations Secretary General, the commander of the UN peacekeeping forces, and members of international and national civil society organisations. I met with Foreign Minster Ramos Horta at the UN on 16 September 2002. During our meeting, he briefed me on developments in Timor Leste, and emphasised the need for continuing support from the international community for the judicial sector, and the Indonesian Special Human Rights Court.
In their efforts to build a nation, the people of Timor Leste have shown great political maturity, and good progress has been made in the establishment of democracy there. Free and fair elections to a Constituent Assembly and for the position of President, were held in 2002. Every effort is being made by the new government to consolidate the fragile democratic institutions and the rule of law.
The current focus is on building and developing local government, and it is hoped that local government elections will be held later this year. Reforms are also under way in the public service, including the police and the judicial service. We welcome the government of Timor Leste's commitment to respect human rights. A National Commission for Reception, Truth and Reconcili[174] ation has been established, and is in the process of investigating human rights abuses in the period leading up to independence. Diplomatic relations have been established with Indonesia, and a special commission has been set up to delineate the border between the two countries.
In spite of the achievements of the past three years, and despite continued progress, there are still major tasks to be accomplished in the coming months, and years. Timor Leste faces a number of challenges as one of the poorest nations in South East Asia. There is a critical need for continued support of the international community.
On the security front, Under-Secretary General Guéhenno briefed the UN Security Council in March 2003, and pointed to two potentially, worrying developments: the threat of civil disturbance, and a rise in the activity of armed groups in rural areas. He added that there are significant deficiencies in the ability of the authorities to address these threats, and recommended a delay in the downsizing of the international military and police presence in UNMISET. The Security Council will continue to monitor developments in Timor Leste. Ireland will continue to play its part in the provision of ongoing international support for Timor Leste and will continue to follow developments there very closely.

text: Adult Winter Reading Program: 1950s Titles What Mrs. McGillicuddy Saw by Agatha Christie (1950s) This is a good story. This book is also known as 4:50 from Paddington. This is a case solved by Miss Marple. Her investigative style is more conversational. This contrasts with M. Poirot's interrogative style. I enjoy Miss Marple relaxed approach. In this case, a woman is found murdered in a barn. She seems to have a connection to the family that owns the barn. There is an attempt to murder the other family members. After two more murders, Mrs. McGillicuddy comes for a special reason that she does not even know. -- Added by thewritejim on 03/09/2014 Add Comment In Cold Blood by Truman Capote (1950s) I'd heard of the author before, not too much about this case. it seemed a good writeup of everything that happened. -- Added by sg0307 on 03/07/2014 Add Comment On the Beach by Nevil Shute (1950s) This book was set in the 1950's at a time when nuclear war was a frightening possibility. The novel focuses on several citizens in an Australian town who are facing their own mortality after a worldwide nuclear war. I enjoyed the characters in this book and considered what my life would be like if I had to face a similar situation. Excellent book. -- Added by booklover14 on 03/04/2014 Add Comment Speaking from Among the Bones by Alan Bradley (1950s) excellent -- Added by ladybug4380 on 03/03/2014 Add Comment Morning Glory by Sarah Jio (1950s) Two women's stories, one set in the 1950's and one set in the modern day, take place at the same Seattle houseboat and ultimately intertwine. It's quick to get through, and the setting is interesting. -- Added by Zivah on 02/28/2014 Add Comment And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini (1950s) This book spanned from 1950 to present time. It mainly was a story about Afghanistan and different people in that country. He is a great story teller and it is interesting to see how the characters interact and develop. Not an easy read but wort the effort. -- Added by BStrahl on 02/27/2014 Add Comment Muckers by Sandra Neil Wallace (1950s) I picked this book up because author Chris Crutcher spoke highly of it, and I can see why. Inspired by a true story of the Jerome AZ 1950 high school football team, it's described by Crutcher as "a raw, funny, powerful love story--about a place, about a time, about a way of life..." Meticulously researched, the story is affected by segregation, the Korean War and Communist-hunting; and the author really delivers on evoking that era, with the added desperation of a failing mining community, and appealing characters who make this book hard to put down. (Fans of high school football will particularly enjoy it too.) -- Added by AnnRaymont on 02/26/2014 Add Comment A Season of Gifts by Richard Peck (1950s) A light little book about growing up in the 50's. It was OK, but I have other (funnier) authors to go to if I want this sort of story. -- Added by Mrs. K on 02/24/2014 Add Comment The Catcher in the Rye by Jerome David Salinger (1950s) I liked it even though it took me a while to read. It is pretty depressing. I think because you feel bad for the main character at some level. This is one of those books that either you like or hate. Not sure there is a middle ground to it. Glad I read it but not sure I would read it again. -- Added by brlhudso on 02/24/2014 Add Comment The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien (1950s) I was struck by the amount of details Tolkien created in Middle Earth. J.K. Rowling must have followed his lead when she was creating the world of Harry Potter. I can't imagine having the time to create that! -- Added by Kfort on 02/22/2014 Add Comment The Dead in Their Vaulted Arches by Alan Bradley (1950s) This is the 6th book in the Flavia de Luce series by Bradley and it is another great read. I love Flavia - an 11 year old who loves chemistry (especially poisons!) and has a knack for solving crimes. A unique mystery series. -- Added by LCE on 02/22/2014 Add Comment The White Woman on the Green Bicycle by Monique Roffey (1950s) The books starts in 1956 and ends in 2006, so it could belong to a lot of decades. I loved this book! What a great discovery. (It didn't get all good reviews on Good Reads, but I loved it.) I immediately wanted to discuss it with someone. Would be a good book group read. When I left the characters, I felt like they were living on; they were real and multi-dimensional. It was well-written! It was about an English couple who went to Trinidad -- for his job. Their marriage was falling apart and she hated it in Trinidad; he loved it. So it's really about their marriage AND Trinidad's changes. Covers the political upheaval there. I learned a lot about the people, culture and history of Trinidad. There were only a few things I didn't like about the book. So much I could say but will just keep this brief. :-) -- Added by bookaddict on 02/21/2014 Add Comment Mao's Last Dancer by Li Cunxin (1950s) This is the current Carmel Reads selection, and I'm glad it was brought to my attention. I learned much about China during the Mao period as Premier and I also learned much about the world of ballet. An extraordinary journey in the life of this young man. -- Added by mrhofferth on 02/20/2014 Add Comment The Last Oracle by James Rollins (1950s) Good story for the 1950's. Rather complicated with characters, but the hero is always the hero! judy -- Added by firstname.lastname@example.com on 02/18/2014 Add Comment Village School by Miss Read (1950s) Charming portrait of a post-war English village. -- Added by Grier on 02/11/2014 Add Comment Next

Amidst plenty of reports that Sidney Crosby was nearing a return, it looks as though there may be an underlying issue all along that Pittsburgh doctors have somehow missed – namely, that Crosby likely sustained two fractured vertebrae (the C1 & C2) on top of his latest concussion. This comes from reports by Elliote Friedman of CBC who spoke with Sid's agent, Pat Brisson.
Crosby agent Pat Brisson: Sid did suffer a concussion, but last week, the possibility of two fractured vertebrae (C1 and C2) was…(cont)
— Elliotte Friedman (@FriedgeHNIC) January 28, 2012
discovered. A third doctor is being consulted to determine the exact diagnosis.
— Elliotte Friedman (@FriedgeHNIC) January 28, 2012
Now, it should be noted that despite the apparent severity of such an injury, a fractured vertebrae isn't the end of the world. Recovery can generally be sorted out in the span of a few weeks depending on how the individual takes to the treatment put in place. Moreover, given that Crosby's examination hasn't fully been completed we can't know the extent or speculate on how long it will take him to overcome this complication. Even with this development, the Penguins still seem confident he will make a return this season.
Here's Ray Shero on Crosby's progress:
For those of you who have no idea where the C1 & C2 vertebrae are, you're not alone. Some quick medical recon indicates that they are the top two vertebrae in the neck. I have no idea how this impacts someone in terms of pain, function, long term side effects or recovery time and we'll have to wait and see what the official word is from Crosby/the Penguins.
I know there is a reflex to think, "HOW DID THEY NOT CATCH IT BEFORE?" which hits all of us non-medical folk, but quite frankly I'm willing to spot them the benefit of the doubt. NHL medical staffs are, with very little exception, among the top medical minds on the continent. There's clearly other things at play here which would have prevented this from being seen earlier.
As far as Crosby goes, we can only hope he gets back to full strength and plays again soon. I'm very, very opposed to rushing him back to play which is a temptation for this team because of his immense talent and their championship aspirations. If I'm the Penguins I shut him down for the season right now – take him off the table altogether – and get him ready for the home opener next season. I thought they ought to handle it that way after the Krejci hit and this development certainly hasn't deterred that for me. It's better he misses the rest of the season and playoffs now than have seasons shaved off of his career down the road. We've done the Eric Lindros thing before, and it was no fun to watch the first time.
The diagnosis of Dr. Robert S. Bray, a neurological spine specialist based in Los Angeles, is that Sidney Crosby had suffered a neck injury in addition to a concussion. Dr. Bray reports that the neck injury is fully healed. Those findings will be evaluated by independent specialists over the next few days. The most important goal all along has been Sidney's return to full health, and we are encouraged that progress continues to be made.

The Mail Coach
Mail coaches revolutionised the way letters and parcels were carried throughout Britain in the eighteenth century. The speed and punctuality of conveyance was increased dramatically, meaning that where communicating over distance had before taken days, it was now completed within hours. It was the whole of Britain who benefited as news travelled faster, businesses operated more efficiently and payments and valuables could be conveyed without fear of being lost to highwaymen.
John Palmer is remembered today for establishing mail coaches in the late eighteenth century. Palmer was a businessman and theatre owner from Bath who conducted a successful trial run between his hometown and London in 1784. When this showed that the mail could be conveyed along the Bath to London route in 13, rather than 36 hours, the benefit was easy to see and routes were soon established throughout the country.
As a result, mail guards and drivers became familiar figures of the highroad. As the examples in this episode of The People's Post show, they had a reputation not only for time-keeping and security, but for a fondness of the hospitality at the roadside inns they visited – leading at times to scandal and punishment.
Carrying passengers as well as the mail, the speed of the "flying coaches" astonished those who rode them, and yet the industrial revolution soon brought even greater marvels in the destruction of distance when railways ended the mail coach era as quickly as it had begun. However, during its heyday, the mail coach was part of the fastest, most comprehensive and most efficient transport system anywhere in the world. Fascinating artists, poets and essayists in its own time, it is now established as an icon of its day and a familiar symbol of the historic Royal Mail.

Enforceable Codes of Conduct: Protecting Consumers Across Borders
Business has gone global, but how should consumers be protected when transactions cross borders? The FTC is hosting a forum on Thursday, November 29, 2012, to talk about the role of enforceable industry codes of conduct to protect consumers in cross-border commerce. What's on the agenda? Systems where government entities, businesses, consumer groups, and others develop and administer voluntary procedures that govern areas outside of traditional government oversight.
Just one example of the kind of code participants will talk about: the new Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) privacy rules that give consumers in that region more consistent protections when their information moves between countries.
Around the table at the November 29th forum will be government officials, academics, industry executives, and consumer groups. They'll explore the increasing use of codes in areas like privacy, food and product safety, and corporate social responsibility. If your company does business internationally, one look at the agenda shows why you'll want to follow what's going on.
The forum, which is free and open to the public, will be held at the FTC's Satellite Building Conference Center, 601 New Jersey Avenue, N.W., in Washington, DC. Registration begins at 8:30 a.m.

For the last two winters I have spent the majority of my ski days touring or seeking out the powder in Chamonix. And as much as I love it, I have felt my general ski technique going backwards. Or at best I have hit that plateau that everyone talks about!
Several people have mentioned the benefits of race training as a way to improve your all round skiing skills, so after deliberating with the idea for a while, I decided to swap by Cham 97s for a pair of Dynastar Course Pro GS skis and give it a go.
Autumn seemed the natural time to spend five days on the piste, so on the last week of November I signed up for a 'Race Carve' course on the glacier in Tignes with Snoworks, a UK company run by experienced ski instructor Phil Smith and Winter Olympian Emma Carrick-Anderson.
With some apprehension I met my group on the expansive terrace at the top of the Tignes funicular, at just over 3000m. Tignes in November is a very different experience to the rest of the winter season. The early trains are packed with racers of all ages and their coaches eager to get to the slopes to perfect their skills, and for these five days we were in exactly the same boat.
As the group gazed up at the glacier littered with race gates, we were greeted by ex GB ski-racer, now instructor, Euan Gardiner who put our minds at rest about the week ahead of us. I had imagined being in a group of serious ski racers, but actually I found that the group consisted of people very much like me – passionate skiers who wanted to improve and had heard that rumour about race training making you a better skier!
Each of the five days of the training took a similar pattern – warm up drills first thing, examining the GS course than Euan had set for us, then having a go at skiing the gates combined with some free skiing. Skiing gates is actually pretty hard, and it took some time to get used to being back on piste and thinking about carving. After day one I didn't feel I had progressed, but come day two and three, things started to click. Euan impressed on us the importance of the your outside foot (90% of your weight should be on the outside foot in a carved turn), turning above the gates and the position of your body and your hands (which tended to end up all over the place).
In autumn the ski days are comparatively short (we would normally head off the mountain about 2.30 or 3pm), but when you are in 'training' this length of time is just about right. It also meant we have lots of time for off-snow activities. As part of the Snoworks course we were able to join in circuits and basketball twice in the week in the new sports centre in Tignes, and 'Le Lagon' swimming pool was free to use as part of your lift pass – perfect for tired ski legs. One evening we also had a video feedback session which was invaluable in seeing what you were actually doing wrong (and right in some rare cases).
Although I have dreams of being able to ski like a pro racer, and for one week I felt like I lived like one, training everyday. But the reality is a five-day course won't make that happen. What it did do for me, however, was to give me a real purpose and get my head back into using the skis and thinking about my timing and body position. Moreover, having a competitive element as part of the course made it fun and challenging.
I would recommend race training. It is perfect for getting back to basics and it has definitely set me up for the season ahead. I might even try and find a gate or two this winter…

Even though there's still snow on the ground, I can feel spring around the air. Unlike many people, I mourn the loss of the winter when spring comes – I'm not really one for rain and flowers. So as I was happily shoveling the snow the other day, I thought about my favorite winter romances.
Except I couldn't really think of any, except one: Devil in Winter, by Lisa Kleypas. The story of Evie Jenner and the utterly ruined Sebastian, Lord St. Vincent, is one that has remained readers' favorites since it came out five years ago – it climbed four spots to land at #3 on the recent Top 100 Romances poll. It's pretty hard to ignore the appeal of St. Vincent, who is so deliciously, unrepentantly bad, but who learns to love the stuttering Evie over a backdrop of frigid winter. Their race up to Gretna Green remains memorable for those thick sandwiches of thinly sliced meats and cheeses; the hot bricks and fragrant wine that St. Vincent procures for the freezing Evie; and their quick growth to intimacy while cuddled for mutual warmth in the rocking carriage. I love this section every time I read it, and I spent a happy fifteen minutes with my shovel on the driveway while I thought of Evie and St. Vincent.

How to have "No Meat Week" 11/15-21/09
How I did it: I had done this a year or so ago, and I believe it was around Thanksgiving. I went Sunday to Sunday without eating meat. I meant for this one to be Sunday to Saturday, but on day #8, I only felt like eating cereal and soup, so once again it was a "No Meat Week + 1 Day."
Working at Subway, I always get meat sandwiches, but for this "mission" I had a cheese pizza one day and a veggie sandwich the next.
So, mostly I ate cereal, soups (tomato and Ramen), and peanut butter/cinnamon sandwiches. EASY!

A True Review for an overall Good Game
posted by BmwFreak (HACKETT, AR) Feb 6, 2008
Member since Jan 2007
65 out of 78 gamers (83%) found this review helpful
I personally love the button control scheme. What is so wrong with a company saying, "Hey, every FPS in the market uses R1 and L1 for the trigger, but why can't we use R2 and L2 instead?" The only difference between Turok's buttons and CoD is the trigger button. If you can't play Turok because R2 and L2 are the trigger then your not a true gamer anyways. Adapt. Turok is a different game than CoD and so should be its control scheme.
As far as I'm concerned Turok is more original than CoD. CoD is a Standard Warfare game that has you follow a specific route, run here, shoot everybody that runs out, then run there, and repeat cycle. I've never played a single FPS creature/monster game that has the creatures attack both you and the enemy soldiers, its completely original. There is so much more to this game than just run through the level and kill everybody single handed and then advance to the next level. If you find that your heavily outnumbered shoot a flare into an enemy group, then sit back and watch a Raptor tear them to pieces. Then run in and dispatch of the remaining Dinos or Soldiers. This is a Stealth game with James Bond Action areas.
Another thing I seem to see gamers complain about is the long checkpoint times. Quit Complaining. I'm tired of playing a game that saves every two minutes like CoD for example. If I died in CoD no big deal cause I would restart at the exact area I died. Where's the reason to stay alive in a game if I know I'll just restart from where I died? In Turok your pushed to become a better player or suffer the punishment by having to replay the last 10 minutes of insane action. I love it! If you don't want to restart then don't die.
This is a must play that is unlike any other title.
Good game

From the very first set of cut scenes, before any gameplay, there was one thing that made me say, "This game shows some promise." Two words - Ron Perlman. NICE!! I LOVE THAT GUY!! There are few that do better sarcastic humor than Ron. If you don't know who he is, (HOW? WHY?) it's Hellboy, or for you older folks, Beast from the old Beauty and the Beast TV series.
Anyway, once you get into the game, the storyline itself is pretty cool, and the gameplay is pretty much like every other shooter on the market. Of course being Turok, there had to be lots of dinos, and I must say, overall they were done pretty well. It would have been nice to see a few more non-lethal ones though, maybe a Triceratops or Stegosaurus in there somewhere, but I guess we can't have it all. Of course there are evil humans trying to get you as well, who bare a striking resemblance to Helghast from Killzone might I add.
Overall, the graphics are pretty darn good the AI of the humans is better than I've seen in a lot of nextgen shooters, the dino AI however, not quite as good, you can kill pretty much every raptor with your knife if you time it right.
Overall though, I really enjoyed Turok, and by the way, the cast doesn't end with Perlman, Timothy Olyphant, Powers Booth, and lil Donnie Wahlberg join in the fun too. Not too shabby.
So don't listen to your friends, give it a rent. You won't regret it. Wow that was a long review.

This Doesn't Work...

Other than that, one of the fundamental problems with first-person shooters these is the complete lack of peripheral vision and unless you have a game that really uses surround sound and have a decent sound system, you are not really aware of your surroundings.
That's fine with most first person shooters as targets are usually far enough away for that not be an issue, but in a dinosaur shooter, it just doesn't work. These dinosaurs just encapsulate the whole screen and then you are left in this phase of frantically looking around to see where it went. The fact that you can't see just left, just right, and just down from you means that constantly these things sneak up at you and you don't even realize they are there.
I have surround sound, but there is very little audible warning that a dinosaur is near until it is too late. One could say it adds challenge, to me it is just annoying because of the fundamental restrictions on vision in video games. This kind of close quarters and hand-to-hand combat just doesn't work well in this game. In some games, like Oblivion it works great, but just not in this, it's too fast and just frustrating.
Besides that the weapon don't make any sense. A knife and bow does more damage than a machine gun. I can't explain that, and the fighting between non-dinosaur opponents is just run of the mill. Besides that I don't think the graphics are all that spectacular and this type of gameplay doesn't work as a first person shooter.
Don't waste your time

Dino's are fun to kill but in the end it's just a way to spice up the boring gameplay. When you aren't getting mauled by them, raptors are easy to kill- unfortunately, most of the time you end up getting mauled to death by them. I haven't even made it up to the first boss yet and I'm ready to break the disk out of pure frustration.
So please, for the sake of your sanity, don't rent this game.

First of all they decided to cut their budget on integrating story line in to the game play. So now we have nice cartoon on a one side and lots of cliches on the other. Elevator scene with exploding barrels – very original.
On other hand the way they decide to locate save points is very irritating. It is probably the first game i ever seen when save point was before a dialog .
and don't make me started on games AI. One of the games tips stated that you could use dinos as your allies in the fight with the MP. I was surprised when the dino that was fighting MP made 180 degrease turn and run for me the second he got in my visual range.
Usually i do not write reviews, but this game made me do that.
So i gave it rating 1
Very Good
good game but hate controls

The aim was not precise, killed the play control. Guns jumped around terribly while shooting, even when shooting in short bursts. You are given this big survival knife as your first weapon, but you can only use it as a stealth weapon effectively, no actual melee attack to speak of. So in close action if you run out of ammo, you have to reload and get killed, because the bad guys are tough in this game. The dual wield was a decent way to fix this by shooting one gun, and reloading the other, but still no melee is lame.
I will say the stealth portion of the game was fun to play, sneaking with the bow and pinning guys to walls was cool. However then you have to play the parts that are not stealth and that ruins it. The bad guys were tough, and had incredible aim... the elevator sequence in the MG facility was brutal.
Which brings me to my main problem with this game. A "SAVE" option in the pause menu, but no "LOAD" so I could save at any point, but I would still start at the same checkpoint every time I died or continued the game. This was what did it for me, I don't mind a hard game, if I can save my progress without having to play an entire portion over again. But when I've played the same sequence 6 times because I keep dying later on, enough is enough, it better be a great game for this to be enjoyable and this wasn't.
Don't buy or rent it, not worth it.
Very Good
I think it's pretty cool

A lot of the reviews say the graphics are bad, the cut scenes are bad, when really neither make up a game. Cut scenes CAN be skipped, so you shouldn't have to complain about that. And graphics? If you can tell what's going on and can easily tell if that's a bird, that's a plane, and that's a big freaking dinosaur that's about to bite your head off, the graphics are decent. People in the reviews are also complaining about the fact that L2 is zoom and R2 is fire. I'm not sure if there's a way to change that or if there are custom bound controls or switchable controls, but the purpose is [to my knowledge, take this with a grain of salt] to make it feel like you're actually squeezing the trigger of a gun, although I don't get the point of L2 being zoom besides the thought that it'd be awkward shooting with R2 and zooming with L1/R1.....
I will definitely agree with the people who say it should only be rented - this game doesn't seem to have much replay value except for being able to go back for 5 minutes so you can go Rambo mode with a knife and bow only to slit the necks of both dinosaurs and army men in epic and gory 5 to 10 second cut scenes, or trying to get only headshots with the overpowered bow, then get owned by the immense amount of enemies, realize why you haven't picked up the controller in so long, and put the game back in its case and play something else.
Still though, it's worth a try if you want a decent dinosaur killing game that gives a pretty good challenge that apparently has made people want to snap the disk in half, throw the controller through the wall, break the box that their PS3 came from and then think about throwing the PS3 itself at the wall with the controller but then realizing it might not be worth it....Or would it?

As I looked over the ol' blog last night, I was shocked to realize that I haven't blogged about the antivaccine movement and its offenses against science in nearly three weeks. That's right! The last time I did a vaccine post was when I examined a particularly egregiously bad paper from a couple of scientists…

Batman: Arkham Asylum - A Serious House on Serious Earth, 15th Anniversary… (edition 2005)
by Grant Morrison, Dave McKean (Illustrator)
Work details
Arkham Asylum by Grant Morrison (Writer)
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Arkham Asylum is where many of the criminals who fought Batman ended up. This story backs up and follows Amadeus Arkham, who took his family's home and used it to create the Asylum. A parallel story, set 80 years later, has Batman coming to the Asylum to face the Joker and others.
It was ok. My edition (15th anniversary edition) had the full script with notes from the author, Grant Morrison. I really appreciated that. I missed a heck of a lot of stuff as I read the man portion of the book! Yes, I expect to miss any symbolism/imagery and such, but I missed a lot more than that. It was nice to have the illustrations written out in text as Morrison envisioned them. It filled in a lot of the stuff I missed. There was also thumbnails drawn by Morrison to show how he pictured it before the eventual illustrator, Dave McKean did the final illustrations. I liked Morrison's thumbnails, as I thought they were clearer, and I wonder if I would have missed less had the actual illustrations been closer to Morrison's original vision of it. I also found some of the lettering difficult to read. So, overall: ok.
Recensione su: http://wp.me/p3X6aw-nq
Review at: http://wp.me/p3X6aw-nq
Batman is alerted that the inmates of Arkham Asylum have taken over the premises. If this isn't dangerous enough, they're threatening to murder everyone in the facility unless Batman agrees to a face to face meeting.
I understand that a lot of people can appreciate the style in which both Morrison and McKean approached Batman, however this just wasn't for me. Maybe I like my stuff a little more.. focused? I have no idea if that's the right word. I feel like I'm almost speaking a form of blasphemy here by not loving this book.
That being said, I certainly do not want to take anything away from Dave McKean - the guy is crazy talented. I just question whether or not this really works within the constraints of a comic book. I thought the scenes were unfocused and hard for me as a reader to follow. I guess when it came down to it, I had a lot of trouble grasping exactly what I was looking at. I'll give McKean credit for trying something outside-the-box but I feel like the whole presentation was lost on me. Also, a lot of the dialogue contained some strange choices. In particular, Morrison having Batman scream, "Jesus!" felt weird and awkward to me.
Before you jump down my throat, it wasn't all bad. I'll say that I liked the idea of giving each character their own specific font when they spoke. Joker's sharp words cutting through the atmosphere gave his madness that extra intensity. Apparently, this is something that is considered an industry standard today but it all began with Gaspar Saladino's superb lettering.
I guess I appreciate what was attempted but I'm not sure I could bring myself to read it again or who exactly I'd recommend this to.

12:00 PM - 1:00 PM: Meet-up @ Central Park
Meet-up Point: Right outside the 5th Ave./59 St. Metro Station at the Grand Army Plaza.
We'll be congregating somewhere around the gigantic golden statue of the American wizard Tecumseh, also known as William Sherman, who was a General in the Union army during the American Civil War.
1:00 PM - 4:00 PM: Spend the afternoon around Museum Mile and Central Park/Central Park Zoo. (See Zoo Rates)
6:00 PM - 9:00 PM: Food and drinks together at Common Ground
Sunday, July 31, 2011
12:00 am - 5:00 pm: Coney Island
Meet-up Point: Nathan's Famous -- Take the D, Q N or F train to Stillwell Avenue. This takes about 45 - 60 minutes from midtown Manhattan. Please try to be there AT NOON. At 12:30 we're all going to wander off and then you'll be SAD and ALONE.
Sunday we'll be spending the entire day lounging about Coney Island, strolling the boardwalk, eating a bunch of carnival food and, later in the afternoon, checking out the circus sideshow ($10). There's loads of rides, games and hot dogs... plus an aquarium and beach area: something for everyone. :)
We also intend to go Wizard Planking, so come prepared.
5:00 pm: "The Parting of the Ways" - end of the HOL meetup! Everyone cries, hugs, says goodbye and goes home to catch another showing of Deathly Hallows: Part 2 but this time in 2D because 3D stinks.
7:00 pm: A group of us are getting together to see "Harry and the Potters" perform live in Brooklyn on Sunday night after the meetup. If you want to come as well, I'd suggest buying your tickets online ASAP: I spoke with ticketing and they said that it will most likely be sold out and tickets won't be available at the door. The doors open at 6, show starts at 7. :)

The AD7910/AD7920 are 10-bit and 12-bit, high speed, low power, successive-approximation ADCs respectively. The parts operate from a single 2.35 V to 5.25 V power supply and feature throughput rates up to 250 kSPS. The parts contain a low-noise, wide bandwidth track/hold amplifier, which can handle input frequencies in excess of 6 MHz.
The conversion process and data acquisition are controlled using CS and the serial clock, allowing the devices to interface with microprocessors or DSPs. The input signal is sampled on the falling edge of CS and the conversion is also initiated at this point. There are no pipelined delays associated with the part.
The AD7910/AD7920 use advanced design techniques to achieve very low power dissipation at high throughput rates.
The reference for the part is taken internally from VDD. This allows the widest dynamic input range to the ADC. Thus the analog input range for the part is 0 to VDD. The conversion rate is determined by the SCLK.

The winning team of the "Swaggy Choppers" from Kimball Middle School were, from left: Linda Shaw, cafeteria manager; Tina Panelli, Family Consumer Science teacher; Erin Haerr; Allison Marsh; Maria Martinez, Kimball cook; and Martin Bello. | Denise Moran ~ For Sun-Times Media

SOUTH ELGIN — "Swaggy Choppers" Martin Bello, Erin Haerr and Allison Marsh from Kimball Middle School won School District U46's first "Junior Chopped" cooking competition on Saturday at South Elgin High School.
Their final winning entrée, "World Tour Plate," featured Greek yogurt, a German side dish of cucumbers and sour cream, Italian chicken parmigiana, and a Spanish wrap.
"We bring 'swagaliciousness' to the table," Martin said.
Other competing teams were: "The Foodman Group" from Abbott Middle School, "Canton Culinary Cougars" from Canton Middle School, "Iron Wolves" from Eastview Middle School, "Team Ellis" from Ellis Middle School, "Little Panther Skillets" from Kenyon Woods Middle School, "The Cupcakes" from Larsen Middle School, and "The Food Fighters" from Tefft Middle School.
The judges included: Bob Janz of Advantage and broker for Gordon Food Service; Franco Riza Kozur, Uno's; Christina Hernandez, U46 commissary manager; Eric TImroth, Larsen Middle School, and Miguel Medel, Abbott Middle School.
"I love watching this competition," said Hernandez. "It's great to see the creativity. The students are working so well under pressure. There are so many great ideas. I hope we can find an idea today that we can use in a future menu."
The three categories that students had to prepare were: snack, breakfast and lunch.
They were all given the same ingredients. For the snack, they worked with six apples, 18 carrots, eight packages of graham crackers, one brick of cream cheese, and peanut butter.
The breakfast ingredients were one pack of sliced ham, six bananas, six tomatoes, 12 slices of pepper jack cheese, and 12 UBRS (unlimited breakfast rounds.)
Lunch ingredients included six chicken patties, one package of tortilla wraps, three cucumbers, one tub of plain yogurt, and one bag of grapes.
Three teams were eliminated after the snack competition. Three more teams were eliminated after the breakfast competition. The final two competing teams were the "Swaggy Choppers" and the "Cupcakes."
Madison Wiltgen of Canton Middle School said her team was "chopped" after the snack competition. "We didn't know there would be a snack entrée," Wiltgen said. "The cream cheese threw me off."
Tahlia Zamudio of Kenyon Woods Middle School's team was also "chopped" after the snack competition. The favorite dish that she and her teammates, Aaima Entesham and Tiffany Basuel, like to prepare is pasta.
"The competition was a lot of fun," Zamudio said. "I learned lots of things"
"All three of us plan to compete in the next competition," Basuel said. "Now we know what to expect."
Ellis Middle School Principal Perry Hayes said the competition was a great experience. "It's outstanding that School District U46 has this opportunity for students," Hayes said. "Programs like this are one of the reasons kids come to school. Claudie Phillips does an outstanding job."
Phillips is the U46 Director of Food and Nutrition Services.
Carol DePue, U46 Career and Technical Education Coordinator, said: "Every time we cook, it's an experience that combines science, technology, mathematics, and literacy skills."
"I am so pleased to be partnered with Carol and this initiative," said Phillips. "It truly shows initiative partnership and collaboration in providing real life experience to students in consumer services."
Bartlett grandmother Noreen Keslinke came to watch her grandson, Eastview student Eddie Keslinke, compete in Junior Chopped.
"Eddie cooks and bakes," Keslinke said. "It's very thrilling for him to be in the competition. He bakes cookies in the morning and takes them to school. He can also make vegetable soup, taco skillet in one pan, and banana bread."
Every student who competed received a medal. The winning team received a "cutting board" award that was designed by the South Elgin High School students and their instructor, Russ Bartz. There were also eight separate team awards.
Beacon Academy students at South Elgin High School who filmed the event were: Mario Calero, Rachel Christie, Perry Gottschalk, Hayley Dillon and Jack Godlewski.
The next Junior Chopped is slated for Saturday, May 18, 2013.

More than half of the U.S. smartphone population used their phone to perform retail research while inside a store in 2011, illustrating the emergence of savvy smartphone shoppers who bring online shopping behaviors in-store, according to ComScore's report called 2012 Mobile Future in Focus. It found that at the end of 2011, nearly 1 in 5 smartphone users scanned product barcodes and nearly 1 in 8 compared prices on their phone while in a store.
The annual report examines the mobile and connected device landscape, covering several mobile markets measured by comScore, through an exploration of key trends driving smartphone adoption growth, mobile media usage in categories such as social networking and retail, mobile ecosystem dynamics, and shifts in multi-device digital media consumption in 2011, according to a company press release. The report highlights insights primarily from mobile markets in the United States, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, Japan, and Canada.
"As the industry continues to innovate and more consumers look to multiple devices and platforms to consume digital media, we expect the mobile and connected device landscape to be shaken up even further in 2012," said Mark Donovan, comScore senior vice president of mobile.
"As mobile channels present a more personal, social, and ubiquitous experience to consumers, advertisers and publishers have an opportunity to better engage target audiences, given an understanding of how to connect and leverage the unique characteristics of these emerging platforms," Donovan said.
