The basics of electrical principles, including voltage, amperage, resistance, and Ohm's Law, are revealed in clear and concise detail, so the enthusiast understands what these mean in the construction and repair of automotive electrical circuits. All the tools and the proper equipment required for automotive electrical tasks are covered. In addition, this in-depth guide explains how to perform more complex tasks, such as adding new circuits, installing aftermarket electronics, repairing existing circuits, building your own wiring harness, and troubleshooting. Author Tony Candela explains how to complete popular wiring projects, such as adding late-model electronic accessories and convenience items to earlier-model cars, installing relays, designing and assembling multi-function circuits and harnesses, and much more.
With this book in hand, you will be able to assemble, design, and build single- and multi-function circuits and harnesses, troubleshoot and repair existing circuits, and install aftermarket systems and electronics. Automotive Wiring and Electrical Systems is your essential guide for wiring a hot rod from scratch, modifying muscle car electrical circuits for cooling fans and/or power windows, or adding a premium stereo and other conveniences to modern performance cars.

Dead Pixel Tester 3.00
Makes faulty pixels identification easy
One of the applications that are especially designed for that purpose is Dead Pixel Tester. With its colorful user interface, this software should help you detect faulty pixels in no time.
In fact, what this program does is actually a simple thing: it helps you identify any dead pixels by setting different colors as backgrounds, so that you can easily see if there's a differently colored point on the screen.
An abundance of colorful patterns
There's nothing much to do other than carefully analyze the whole surface of the LCD monitor as the application cycles through several colors. The dead or stuck pixels are bound to become visible under certain colors so you can't miss them.
Dead Pixel Tester also comes with a bunch of options to help you detect a defective pixels easier. Instead of solid colors on the background, you can also use patterns, colored bars, a checkerboard, waves, spinning circles and many others, just to identify if a certain point is different from the others.
A few last words
All in all, Dead Pixel Tester is a really useful tool and thanks to its great ease of use it is equally suited for power users as well as less experienced persons. Since it doesn't require installation and can be deployed from any portable device, this little utility certainly deserves at least a try.

In city center. In quiet street behind main square. Very close to the lake. Beds and rooms were comfortable. Above pizza restaurant, but you do not really hear their guests. You do hear the vibrations of making the pizza dough. Would recommend this guest house to friends.

Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings
When bass man Bill Wyman left the Rolling Stones in the Nineties, he launched a prolific solo career that has included book writing and documentary production. He also formed his own highly successful R&B group, the Rhythm Kings, with an all-star line up of favourite musicians such as Gary Brooker, Georgie Fame, Mick Taylor and Albert Lee.
'Groovin' was first released in 2000 and has 14 driving performances, including a version of the Young Rascals 1967 hit 'Groovin' and the classic 'I Put A Spell On You'.
This is the blues played with honesty and outstanding musicianship. A musical recipe that is simply mouth-watering, blending together the creme de la creme of British musicianship, poured over some of the greatest songs of the last 30 years, sprinkled with some new compositions organically-grown on the Wyman estate....and the result is deliciously irresistible!

I've been following your posts and will continue to send prayers, positive thoughts, hope, and hugs your way for your continued strength and for your son.
I don't know what to say, but I wanted to post to let you know I've read your message and will be thinking of you. And of your poor son, who's been through so much in the last few weeks.
I know that all here who read your message will, like me, be fervently hoping that he'll be found very, very soon - safe and well.

10 of the Weird Animal Behaviors & Instincts
Do you think it is enjoyable to be an ethologist, exploring the animal kingdom, discovering and unveiling its wonders which most people do not know? By the way, what is an ethologist? An ethologist (don't' be confused with ethnologist ) is the one who studies animal behavior, the evolution of that behavior and the understanding of the behavior. Animal behaviors can be instinctive or natural, and both of the classifications can lead to a strange fact. According to studies, some of the instincts and behaviors are inheritable and these responses are due o environmental conditions that stimulate an animal to act without involving reasons.
Instincts and behaviors are triggered in several ways and you might be surprised of the peculiarity and strangeness of those. Just like humans, animals also have intuitions and behaviors when they sense danger, when they provide security for their offspring and even some awesome and disgusting ways to survive. Again, another fascinating diversity will be featured in Always10List about top 10 lists of the Weirdest Animal Instincts, time to explore animal kingdom just like an ethologist.
1 – The Disgusting Fulmar
This bird which can be found in Europe, North America and can be named as the most disgusting animal in terms of defending itself. Fulmar means "foul gull" and this animal resembles a seagull. When it senses danger and sees a nearby attacker, the fulmar have this "projectile vomiting" skill which can reach an enemy up to five (5) feet away. The vomit is disgusting and acidic.
2 – The Backward Run of Naked Mole Rats
These are not moles neither rats, they are guinea pigs which are also called as desert mole rats and sand puppies). Why are they weird? Naked mole rats can run very fast… and faster when backwards. Yes, they run backwards faster than normal running. It is a rare feature in the animal world, and only naked mole rats possess that certain talent.
3 – The Artistic but Destructive Bowerbird
This type of bird is an interior designer, it enjoys designing its nest. One weird attitude of this bowerbird is it will do everything just to gain attention on the nest it decorated. Yes… EVERYTHING… even if it has to destroy other neighbor's nest. This bird id meticulous, it uses flowers, feathers, stones and even plastic or glass pieces to decorate its nest. Bowerbirds do this to attract females, it will take him hours to build the nest. It will only stop building the nest if he has to sabotage another nest.
4 – The Hair-throwing Tarantula
all we know is we have to avoid touching this spider because of the danger it can bring. When tarantulas sense danger and sees a nearby attacker, it uses its feet to grab hairs from its back and throw it to the attacker. These hairs are stingy especially when someone gets hit directly to the eye. Tarantulas have to do this because they are vulnerable, they easily die when they fall.
5 – The Bonobo
This certain group of animals has a societal structure where almost everything can be resolve to "SEX". Bonobos use sex in almost all aspects of their life, they do it when they greet each other, favors for exchange for food, solve fights over food and territory. Like humans, they do ALMOST anything a human couple would do in a sexual act. Bonobos are categorized as one of the peaceful and unaggressive species of mammals, and they only have evolved and resorted to sex to avoid violence within their society.
6 – The Long Distance Relationship of the Emperor Penguins
Penguin couples spend their marriage mostly apart, and they only meet on a breeding site once a year. This breeding period happened in late March, and they meet there after travelling almost 70 miles or 112km on their foot or sliding on their bellies. On the breeding site, male penguins stay on a certain place, lower their chest and head and call out for their mate. Penguins have this certain skill to identify their partner with the sound they produce. When they already see each other, they repeatedly bow and continue the sounding they do when they are finding their partners.
7 – Whiptail Lizards, Cloning Like A Boss
Whiptail Lizards are all females! How do they reproduce? Pseudocopulation, this is the process how whiptail lizards reproduce, they clone themselves. On this process one will mount and act the role of a male (they switch positions afterwards), They do this to stimulate egg reproduction and when the eggs hatch, they became clones of their mother.
8 – The Weird Parenting of Cuckoo Birds
The cuckoo birds do not build their own nest, what they do is to lay their eggs on someone else's nest. When it sees a nest and noticed that there are no other birds nearby, it will lay its eggs on that nest. Cuckoo birds do this every breeding season, and one habit of these birds is the dropping of the other species on the same nest after its eggs already hatched. They do that to secure the security of the newly hatched babies from the foster parents who own the nest.
9 – Horned Lizards, Nosebleeding is to Mainstream
Nosebleeding? It's too mainstream to horned lizards, have you ever heard of "Eye bloodshot"? When these lizards sense danger and saw a nearby attacker, he shoots a projectile of bloodshot out of their eyes. How do they do it? They have this ability to increase their blood pressure in their sinuses and let it explode. The bloodshot can reach up to five (5) feet. The blood does not contain poison but it has foul taste to canine and feline predators. This is one way to create chaos and confusion to an attacker.
10 – Dung Beetles: All it Needs is Dung
First, dung means manure or feces and dung beetles get its name from it. Why? They live their whole life in dung! These beetles are part of the scarab family… who loves dung. They live (eats dung), breed(laid eggs in dung and hatches on it) and eat in dung (they even feed dung to their newly born). It also have this habit of rolling dung balls, it stand on its head and moving backward using its hind legs to push it around. If the Scarab beetle is an important symbol of religion, what does the Dung beetle symbolize?

Continued on page 4 Red Scare Raised in Attempt To Break Union In regard to the statement appearing in the Daily Star purporting to be a reprint from the official journal of the International Brotherhood of Teamster, Chauffeurs, Stablemen and Helpers of America, The leaders of Local 574 have injected a new spirit into the Ttvin City Labor Movement which has brought the workers into all the Unions by the score and has put the Citizens' Alii- ance on the run. Fearful lest the strain of a large membership composed of eager, aggressive workers should bend its antiquated super-structure, the International has raised the cry of Communist against these leaders. This can mean only one thing. The executive officers of the International must protect their huge salaries. They realise that a militant Local Union exposes their incompetency. Therefore the International officers propose to sacrifice the workers of Minneapolis and St. Paul to the Citizens Alliance so that they may protect their own private interests. Are the labor leaders in the Twin Cities going to sanction this outrage, or are they going to rally to the support of the leadership and program of Local 574? ALL LABOR LEADERS SHOULD PUBLICLY REFUTE THE ARTICLE WHICH APPEARED SATURDAY IN THE MINNEAPOLIS DAILY STAR. the General Drivers' Union Local 574 wish to issue the following statement: In the drive of the employers and their Citizens' Alliance to break up and destroy our organization they have resorted to every means at their command, intimidation, threats, bribes, lies, and terror. They have now resorted to what is probably the last weapon at their disposal, THE RED SCARE. We do not know where the official or- Continued on page 4 7:00 P. M, WEDNESDAY, JULY 11, IS DEADLINE Labor Board Rules Against Local 574. The employers have finally succeeded in exhausting the patience of the entire labor movement. Through their Advisory Committees, Steering Committees and their General Executive Board, better known as the Citizens Alliance, they have run the gamut of printers ink from libel to comedy. The employers have chiseled, cheated, swindled, and bandied words long enough. They must now act—or else! As though the swindle were not already complete, the Labor Board has "generously" ruled that Local 574 shall have the right to represent almost half of its membership. Then, as an after-thought evidently prompted by a guilty conscience, it "recommends" that the employers condescend to "bargain" with all workers who can produce affidavits to show that they were on the picket lines during the May Strike. But the fanfare is now over. The con- nivers have been exposed, and the call to battle has been sounded. Last Friday the workers poured into Bridge Square thousands upon thousands and showed the employers and the world in general that they were solidly behind Local 574, that if the employers hope to crush the most powerful union in Minneapolis they must be prepared to crush every union in the Twin Cities. Shoulder to shoulder they marched, workers, farmers, and university students, organized and unorganized, employed and unemployed, but all united in a protest against exploitation by the privileged classes and a demand for a decent standard of living. The demands of Local 574 were unanimously endorsed and solid support was Continued on page 4

Chiropractor Vancouver WA
If you've been feeling pain or discomfort anywhere in your body, you have come to the right place! Here at Yoder Chiropractic in the Vancouver, WA area, we work with you to get to the root cause of the problem in order to effectively eliminate your pain for good. Any other doctor might prescribe you the same pain medication they prescribe to all their other patients, or some other kind of treatment you don't need. In the chiropractic business, we have learned that those kinds of treatments only mask the pain; they don't get rid of it. Chiropractic care consists of several different approaches to pinpoint the cause of the discomfort, and then creating a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs and unique body type.
Discomfort or pain can be felt by anyone and could be caused by a variety of different reasons, including sports injuries, chronic stress, whiplash, certain musculo-skeletal conditions, pregnancy, bad posture, or car crashes, to name a few. Although the pain is most commonly felt in the neck, shoulders, or back, it can also present itself in other parts of the body. Chiropractic care has even been known to cure frequent headaches. Pain has no business lingering in our bodies for long periods of time. However normal you might think your discomfort is, it probably isn't. A pain pill might make you forget about it for a while, but quite often, a chiropractic adjustment will provide immediate and long lasting relief. Wherever your pain is, chiropractic care is sure to be the faster and more effective approach to feeling better.
- Prevent future health problems & increase wellness
- Lowered blood pressure & decrease stress levels
- Eliminate neck and back pain & improve eye and ear function
- Increased energy levels & increase mobility
- Improved athletic performance & range of motion
Being Pain-Free Is Important To Your Overall Health
The musculo-skeletal system accounts for more than half the body's mass, and uses up the most amount of energy accordingly. This is why it's important to keep it healthy and functioning as efficiently as possible. Dealing with discomfort and pain on a daily basis is not only distracting, but incredibly tiresome as well. It's nearly impossible to do all things you would otherwise be able to do with the same amount of effort. And you don't have to anymore
Feeling comfortable and pain-free in your everyday life will allow you the freedom to perform your daily routine faster, and still be able to come home each day with energy to spare. It can also improve your cognitive health and your sleeping routine. You'll be happier, more comfortable, more active, more productive, and healthier overall. There's really no downside to it!
Why Choose Yoder Chiropractic?
When it comes to effective and high quality chiropractic care, Dr. Yoder is the best in town. What makes him unique in comparison to the other chiropractors is his holistic approach to healing. He believes this approach is the healthiest and most effective, and we see proof of that each and every day.
If you choose Yoder Chiropractic, you will not only be getting a healthier and happier body, but a highly qualified team of professionals who are compassionate and talented when it comes to their job. We understand that chiropractic care is a compound and very complex approach to healthcare. That is why we offer an extensive list of services, from skeletal adjustments to massage therapy and even classes to help educate you about your own health. Each and every service is performed by an experienced individual who is knowledgeable and dedicated to their specific duty.

Where to buy…handmade and original products
Handmade, unique, and not something you nabbed on the high street is hot, and there are several places to while a way far too much of your time browsing through the creations of talented designers and crafters. Here are my favourites…
All Things Original – Very small but delightful collection of seriously talented British designers and crafters. From furniture, to jewellery, to homewares, clothing, and artwork like the Antelopeee by Lucie Sheridan print above, bookmark immediately!
Artfire – US based and prices all quoted in US dollars, they have a decent sized kids section although there's not as much contemporary offerings as what you get on Etsy.
Coriandr – Another Brit offering that's arrived on my radar recently, the children's and homewares sections aren't big but they do have some gems in there. They have really good sub categories which make it a lot easy to pin down what you're looking for. One to watch!
Dawanda – Gathering together independent European sellers, it covers a broad spectrum of goodies but their baby and children section will induce serious shopping palpitations! Don't let the not so attractive euro exchange rate scare you off. Oh and you can search by colour – oooh!
Etsy – The original and the mac daddy of them all, gathering handmade talent from all over the world in one marketplace. Very heavy leaning towards US sellers and prices are also in US dollars. Exceptionally good for tracking down unique and contemporary gear (so much artwork to salivate over including alphabet posters like the one by Stephanie Fizer above, it's scary) for your discerning kids, there is some serious talent in there that have hit the big time. There are so many amazing sellers, you may swim in indecision. Or shop a lot… Check out posts featuring etsy.
Folksy – Championing "cool crafts and design talent", this has small number of categories covering a broad scope of crafts with some real gems although can seem very jewellery heavy. Children's gear is not it's strongest but they do have lovely homewares and you know I'm a sucker for cushions which they have by the plenty.
Misi – Another British pool of artisan talent with plenty of crafty folks selling their ways across a fairly broad range of categories. Like Folksy, they're stronger on general homewares but they do have a decent sized children's section.
Not On the High Street – Really the original UK answer to Etsy, this is still the largest gathering of independent British talent all under one roof. Broad range of 'departments' and the children's section has got some great furniture and toys, plus they're pretty hot on artwork.

Good article!!! I like Dawanda a lot. One more place for handmade and original items at linenkids.com
It is better to know more places true?
Hey Natalie, thanks for the great list letting people know all the options available. I was hoping to make an addition to your comment on ArtFire because I noticed you didn't mention that currencies get converted automatically by ArtFire for international shoppers. I know I list things in US dollars in my store but a shopper in the UK sees my prices in pounds so it is a little more friendly for international users.
Thanks again for the list, I'm off to check out some of these guys!

Disneyland to close submarine ride for upgrade
Disneyland's Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage will close for a refurbishment that won't be complete until late 2014.
Disney announced Friday that the underwater ride that circles a lagoon will close on Jan. 6. About 5 million gallons of water will be drained, then workers will make improvements to the attraction.
The Orange County Register reports (http://bit.ly/1csN34V) the water will go into the local groundwater aquifer after it is treated.
The original Submarine Voyage debuted in 1959 and was inspired by the first nuclear-powered submarine voyage to the North Pole the year before.
The attraction was closed in 1998, and reopened in 2007 with a theme based on Pixar's "Finding Nemo" animated movie.

CONCORD – At a critical time for the racing industry, Concord-based Speedway Motorsports, Inc. turned a reported second quarter net income of $27 million, up from a $28 million loss in the same period last year.
"The economy continues to put a strain on our corporate prospects, however we remain positive about the level of interest we've seen," said Marcus Smith, the company's chief operating officer.
Speedway Motorsports operates eight tracks across the country, including Charlotte Motor Speedway. Smith said he is encouraged by the numbers.
"Corporations are finding value in aligning their brands with motorsports events."
But for the most part, the recession means a big yellow caution flag for racing. Attendance is down or flat at NASCAR races – at SMI-owned tracks and other venues.
Fans noticed it at the spring races at Charlotte.
"I think people are using their money more strategically," said Corinne Economaki, executive director of the North Carolina Motorsports Association. "If a fan might go to five or eight races a year, now he might go to three or four."
Racing's deep roots in the Tar Heel state mean its successes and failures have a major impact here.
"North Carolina benefits greatly from it's association with motorsports and vice versa," Economaki said.
Race fans also aren't spending as much on souvenirs, so companies like Speedway Motorsports are investing heavily in social media and other ways to reach fans. Economaki believes it's a smart bet.
"They're doing an awful lot in that regard and I think that will pay off in the long run."
Another key indicator of racing's health is television ratings. SMI executives say they're pleased with the viewing trends so far this season.
"The races have held up well within the overall consumption of NASCAR related content in various medium," said Smith.
The company said despite the economic uncertainty, it still plans to hit its year-end revenue estimates, though Smith cautioned that changes in gas prices or unemployment could put the final results in jeopardy.

"I am trying to decide between getting the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card and the Starwood Amex. I am going to start traveling and entertaining a lot for work so the idea of the 2x travel and dining on the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card is great (I would book through Ultimate Rewards). I will be going to Detroit and trying to stay at an SPG property when I am there, though, and I fly American. I can't decide if the bonus categories outweighs the exchange of the SPG points. Can you help a junior points guy out?"
Both are great cards and points programs and I personally carry them in my wallets to boost my Ultimate Rewards and Starwood accounts.
However, if I had to only choose one, I'd choose the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card for the following reasons:
1. Better point earning: You get the 7% dividend on top of the bonus miles, so it's essentially 2.14 base on all travel (which beyond airfare, hotel and car rentals includes mass transportation like subways and trains, taxis and even parking so it's a base 2.14x. Plus, the Chase Ultimate Rewards portal allows you to book travel through sites like Hotwire for an additional 2 points per dollar – 4.28 Ultimate Rewards points for booking airfare far outweighs 1 Starwood point plus any portal bonuses (you need to have a Chase card to get the Ultimate Rewards points and should use a Chase card for the purchases, but some people have had luck using other cards).
2. Another key consideration is that the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card doesn't have foreign transaction fees, so if you plan to travel abroad at all, you won't want to use the Starwood American Express, which charges a crazy 2.7% fee on every dollar charged in a foreign currency vs. 0% on the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card. Even when I stay at Starwood hotels abroad, I use the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card to avoid that fee, though I do use the Starwood Amex to pay for Starwood hotels in the US.
3. The final kicker is that Chase points transfer instantly to the transfer partners 1:1 to partners United, British Airways, Southwest, Korean, Hyatt, Marriott, Ritz-Carlton and Amtrak. They also transfer to Priority Club, but it takes about 2 days and I wouldn't recommend transferring to them because you'll get more value leveraging partners like United and Hyatt.
4. Starwood transfers can take up to a month (though usually a week or less), which can be a dealbreaker when trying to book airfare. Starwood does have more airline parters, but they only transfer to United at a 2:1 ratio and I personally find United miles to be the most valuable currency.
Don't get me wrong, the Starwood Amex is great – I actually have both the personal and business versions, which each give me 5 nights/2 stays towards elite status every year. It is nice having 10 stays on January 1 – only 40 more to retain Platinum and 90 more for Ambassador! Starwood points are also extremely valuable because Starwood has great redemptions like Cash & Points (though they are jacking up the cost of those awards in March) and for every 20,000 points you transfer to an airline partner, you get a 5,000 mile bonus – a nice built-in 25% transfer bonus.
However, I think the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card is a better all-around card for travelers, though that might change if the Starwood Amex drops the foreign transaction fee, speeds up partner transfers and adds in some more category spending bonuses!

August 22nd& 23rd 2009 was a great day for everyone. There was so many families that came to the free event to spend time with our families at Treasured Times Day care center. It was a great time had by all and the best thing yet it was free. I was able to spend money on the family and not on an attendance fee. This was so much fun and the vendors were friendly and dressed with the entire theme and the food was cooked fresh and right in front of you. It was awesome to just spend time around the family and friends out in the fresh air and away from all the hustle and bustle of the rat race of life. The people putting this entire thing on made this the most enjoyable for children and adults both. Why drive almost 2 hours away when a great Renaissance festival is local and free. Thank you for opening my eyes and see you all next year for the 5th Annual Rome Renaissance Festival & Artisan Faire..

California: Advanced 'Drop-In' Biofuels Power the Navy's Green Strike Group
|Positive Impact:
|EERE's investment allowed Solazyme to increase its algal oil production by a factor of 10, leading to the U.S. Navy's purchase of 450,000 gallons of "drop-in" jet fuel.
|San Francisco, California
|EERE Investment:
|$21.8 million
|Clean Energy Sector:
|Sustainable transportation
Partnering with Solazyme of San Francisco, EERE enabled the company to increase its production of algal oil by a factor of 10. In December 2011, the U.S. Navy's Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) announced that it would purchase 450,000 gallons of Solazyme's advanced "drop-in" jet fuel made from algal oil—the largest U.S. government purchase of biofuels to date. The Navy demonstrated the fuel in the Green Strike Group exercises in the Pacific in summer 2012, and by 2013, plans to deploy a Great Green Fleet powered entirely by alternative fuels.
The Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) works with a broad spectrum of industrial, academic, agricultural, and nonprofit partners across the United States to develop and deploy commercially viable, high-performance biofuels, bioproducts, and biopower from renewable biomass resources in America to reduce our dependence on imported oil.

There's practically no reason to offer a review of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It's going to sell millions upon millions of copies regardless of what anyone says. We all know it's phenomenally fun and destined to become Wii's biggest game of all time, so what else should a review even bother to say? Spend 500 words arguing about wave dashing or meteor smashes? Nah, we'll just say "buy this immediately" and let you get back to smashing.
But if you want a detailed breakdown, we'll sure deliver one. The core game, where you pick your favorite Nintendo mascot and bang away at 34 other classic characters, is wholly intact and just as smooth, addictive and deceptively deep as it was on the N64 and GameCube. Passersby will think all four players are just banging on buttons; experienced gamers will know just how important each attack, feint and dodge really is. It's completely engrossing and will hands-down be the one game you and your friends will be playing for months to come - if not years.
Now imagine all that online. Brawl's biggest addition, other than adding Snake and Sonic perhaps, is Wi-Fi Connection support, and it functions... fairly well. If you're brawling with pals off your Friend Code list, the experience should be generally clean and lag-free. However, our attempts to play random opponents led to more than one unplayable choppy scrap that ended in disconnection. There's also no practical way to communicate with other players, and it's a total pain in the ass to share saved pictures. Apparently swapping 16-digit Friend Codes isn't enough, as you also have to share 12-digit Brawl codes. We'd say this'll get ironed out as the weeks wear on, but Wii's online "presence" has never seemed a priority.
Moving down the list of important additions we come to the level editor. The more you play, the more pieces you unlock for the editor, so there's definitely an incentive to keep trudging through the main game well after you've unlocked every character. Plus, through WiiConnect24, Nintendo will feature the best user-submitted levels each day. We had a go at the editor, attempting to recreate some classic NES levels with Brawl pieces. Here's how one went down:
Eagle-eared gamers will recognize Metroid Prime's title screen playing in the background. That's thanks to Brawl's utterly astounding soundtrack, which will probably go down in history as one of the greatest collaborative works in all of gaming. We're talking 300-plus tracks of Nintendo excellence, with submissions from Yasonuri "Chrono Trigger" Mitsuda, Yuzo "Streets of Rage" Koshiro and Koji "everything Nintendo" Kondo. And with soundtrack options that change the frequency of each song, plus playlist editing, Brawl's sound category is off the charts. There's nothing to even compare it to. If you're into game music (or even feeling nostalgic) at all, you will absolutely adore the tunes here.
If that's all Brawl had, it would still rank among the best Nintendo-published games of all time. But there's more. Much, much more, in the form of Subspace Emissary, a seven-hour adventure mode that bucks every trend Nintendo usually employs in its key games. This extensive quest is packed with cutscenes that rival Square-Enix and mascot interaction well beyond anything Melee dished out. No one speaks in these cutscenes, but seeing Mario, Link, Kirby, a grip of Pokemon and all the rest teaming up to beat back an invasion is a spectacle that just has to be seen. Our favorite moment, seen below, is the perfect example: it's simultaneously the most ridiculous and amazing thing we've ever seen in a Nintendo game, and a welcome change of pace from the usual "no one talks, no pre-rendered scenes" mantra.
But this is all surface stuff, pretty fan service that Nintendo fans will lap up with an ear-to-ear grin even if the gameplay stank. Luckily (and quite predictably), this isn't the case - the Subspace Emissary doesn't control as tightly as say, a Mario or Metroid game, but we never once suffered a death or loss of items that was due to sloppy mechanics. It's an unnecessary component to the bashing, brawling, blasting main game, yet it's one of the sturdiest platformers in years, minor floaty control issues notwithstanding. Oh, and two people can play, so don't think you're off the multiplayer hook just because you chose the adventure mode.
And on top of all this there's still the Event mode (covered here), a sticker collection that alters various characters' abilities, tournament options and a customizable Special Brawl mode to keep you and your friends busy well into the summer. So, what's the final verdict?
Before we award Brawl the high score it deserves, we have to climb on our high horse for a moment and spout some related complaints. This is a mountainous achievement, the likes of which Wii will probably never see again. Brawl brilliantly shines as a beacon of hope for Wii development, a rallying point all other programmers should gather around. Future developers - take a page from Sakurai and spend some time honing your game to its best. No more shoddy ports and please, no more tacked-on motion controls.
And that last bit - motion controls - leads us to the second aside. This stands a good chance of being the Wii's highest selling, most beloved game, just as Melee was on GameCube. And it has nothing to do anything Wii was paraded around for. The waggle control option is horrendous, forcing us to play with either a Classic Controller or GameCube standby. We'll repeat that last part: the safest way to play Wii's best game is with Nintendo's seven-year-old GameCube controller. Doesn't that bother anyone? It's got nothing to do with the quality of SSBB, but we have to wonder aloud how many "gamer games" are being restrained so Nintendo can crank out cheap family game after cheap family game.
The final word on Brawl is nothing but love. From the digital-crack gameplay to the ocean-deep customization to the enjoyable Subspace Emissary, it's completely jam-packed with Nintendo love. The sights, the sounds, everything is an unfiltered pat on the back and incessant in-joke for longtime fans. For everyone else, it's a dependably solid fighter that destroys its predecessor in every way, opening up the door to even more new players. All in all, it's the Wii's perfect party game and Nintendo's most extensive work.
So for all this, we have to go with a 10. It's Wii's equivalent of Halo 3, a sequel that didn't change much at the core, but piled so much extra content on top that you'd be a damn fool to pass it up. It'll outlast Twilight Princess, it'll outsell Mario Galaxy and it'll most likely stay tucked inside your Wii for untold months to come (at least until Mario Kart comes out). Brawl is not perfect, but we don't award half points - we go 9 or 10, and the former is simply too low.

The duo behind Uhh Yeah Dude travel east, talk shit about Seinfeld
Longtime podcasters Jonathan Larroquette and Seth Romatelli bring their cool and casual chatter to the Gramercy Theatre
Wed Mar 5 2014
CommentsAdd +
Photograph: Heather Culp
Recording its first episode in 2006, the L.A.-based Uhh Yeah Dude predates just about every other podcast out there. The formula is simple: Hosts Seth Romatelli and Jonathan Larroquette—his dad is that John Larroquette—sit across from each other, press record and converse about "News of the Weird"–type items or just make fun of Adam Levine's new fragrance. With no guests and few if any timely news pegs, the show has gathered a rabid following through its starring duo's friendly chemistry and freewheeling vibe. (Neither party has an interest in following the lead of the many comedy-nerd interview podcasts that have appeared over the last few years, involving, as Romatelli puts it, "listening to this person get interviewed for the 35th time about how awesome and rich they are.") Though the live recording on Thursday 6 at Gramercy Theater is sold out, we asked Sethro and Jah to help new listeners find a point of entry.
What were your early days of podcasting like?
Jonathan Larroquette: Obviously, [podcasting] was being done by others, but I thought it would be a safe place to do something and not worry about how it was received. Seth and I were friends, and I just thought he was so funny and needed an outlet, and I was looking to do something outside of music that wasn't acting. I also thought that an audio-only format was, although passé, still a legitimate way to do something.
What stands out for you guys after eight years?
Larroquette: It's difficult for us to pick favorite episodes because there are so many of them and it spans so much time. It's like asking me what my favorite Grateful Dead show is. At a certain point we have to break it down by decades, what guitar Jerry was using at the time—
Seth Romatelli: This week, we were talking shit about Jerry Seinfeld doing his bit about cell phones on [The Tonight Show with Jimmy] Fallon. I looked back to the exact same week in 2013, and he was doing Letterman with the same bit. Also around this time in 2013, we were talking about Jamie Coots, the snake handler at the Full Gospel Tabernacle in Jesus Name Church. That's the snake handler that died recently from being bitten by a snake.
Larroquette: We repeat ourselves in a circuitous way. The same subjects seem to keep coming up.
Have you had any guests?
Romatelli: My mom has done three episodes. Out of the 408 episodes, me and Jonathan have done 405, and me and my mother have done three.
Larroquette: Seth's mom has replaced me a few times when [I know I'm going] out of town, but it should be noted that during those episodes, I am present in the room because I'm the only one who knows how to record a podcast.
Wait, if the topics aren't timely, and you're in the room, Jonathan, why not just bank an extra episode with you in it to release later?
Larroquette: Marsha really likes doing it! It probably started out as, I'm gonna have to teach these guys how to [record], and it never happened.
Romatelli: She was out in Los Angeles for Christmas. She was drunk in the room, she barged in and did the exact same show. It's funny, because my fuckin' mother is in her sixties, drunk on white wine, and she's talking shit.
Larroquette: Marsha doing the same thing we do. It's ridiculous.
It just seems like it causes more logistical problems than it solves.
Larroquette: That might be our way.
Do you guys stay away from current events so that you can release an episode whenever?
Romatelli: The reason why you can go back and listen to this week each year is the subjects still feel like they make perfect sense. It's not episodes of comedy shows on TV that have a shelf life of 24 hours.
Larroquette: [But] Pier 1 introducing [odd new] hand sanitizers—chances are you missed it the first time around. If not, this is a weird reminder of how shitty the world was two years ago.
Uhh Yeah Dude records at Gramercy Theatre Thu 6.

Washington (CNN) – A decision is expected by the end of the week on whether there will be any criminal charges brought against NBC News for displaying what appeared to be a high-capacity gun magazine during a "Meet the Press" broadcast.
D.C. Attorney General Irvin Nathan received the results of an investigation by city's Metropolitan Police Department, and is weighing a decision, spokesman Ted Gest said Thursday.
During a December 23 "Meet the Press" interview with Wayne LaPierre of the National Rifle Association, NBC's David Gregory held up what the host described as a 30-round magazine. Gregory asked if banning those and only allowing magazines with five or ten bullets might reduce gun tragedies such as the school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut.

South of town overpass.
Anyone know anything about the new cross highway overpass south of town? It seems to me we need the center of town overpass (Rainer) more than one south of town. Is it privately funded (ie. Indian tribal money)?

You can win various prizes in the GPUpdateManager.net game, such as tickets to the Formula 1 races, DVDs and shopping discounts.
Please take a look at the 'prizes' page to view a complete list of all prizes.
To join the GPUpdateManager.net game you are required to pay €5,
At the start of the game all drivers, chassis and engines received their starting values. During the game their values can increase or decrease when a driver scores well or not.
A driver who finishes first, for instance, will become €9 million more valuable. But a driver who finishes 20th will decrease in value by €9 million. The maximum value of a driver is €150 million and the minimum value of a driver is €1 million.
After every race the values of each driver and team are changed automatically.
A subleague is a league which has been set up by a player of the GPUpdateManager.net game. This means you can set up your own league for friends or family, allowing personal battles.
Feel free to open up your own league in the GPUpdateManager.net game or join somebody else's.
If you have created a subleague you will be the 'admin' (administrator) of this league. You will be the only person in the league able to accept or decline people in the request. You are also the only person who can delete the league
The points you can score with your chassis and engine are the same. The two drivers that race for the team which is using your chassis and engine will both score points for you.
For example, when you own the Ferrari engine and Fernando Alonso wins a race with Felipe Massa second, you receive respective engine points for Alonso's win and for Massa's second place.
If a driver doesn't finish the race (as in seeing the chequered flag) he will not score points as a driver or for his chassis and engine. Even though a driver might be officially classified by the FIA, that does mean he receives points in the GPUpdateManager.net game without crossing the finish line.
If you have forgotten your password, please request a new one here; it will be sent to the e-mail address with which you subscribed.
To save your team you must choose two drivers, a chassis and an engine. You are not able to submit an uncompleted team.
If your browser does not accept cookies, it is impossible for our system to remember that you are logged in.
Please change your browser settings to accept cookies, so our system can remember that you are logged in

Inter-Camp Activities
Inter-camp activities involve merging children from two separate camps, and having them compete in sports and other recreational activities. Inter-camps typically include team sports, such as soccer, basketball, baseball, softball, street hockey, gymnastics, volleyball, swimming and climbing wall, and individual sports, such as tennis. Although participants play competitively and certainly like to win, emphasis is placed on participation and sportsmanship. Every child has an opportunity to participate, regardless of ability in a particular area. Inter-camps cut across the daily schedule. … Continue reading
