Clockwork Orange Overclocked Custom Pc: Viddy Well Done
June 9th, 2009
Modder/droog/man of the moment David Penfold aka Mremulator was inspired by an award-winning custom rig and decided to go totally bolshy yarblockos with his own build. First he picked orange and black for the colors of his SilverStone TJ07 computer case – which incidentally was the same model used in the custom pc that inspired him – and came up with the theme later: A Clockwork Orange. And so Overclocked Orange was born.
Awesome stuff. For the innards, Penfold put together an Asus Rampage II Extreme motherboard, an Intel Core i7-940 chip, 6GB of 1,600MHz Corsair DDR3 memory and three Intel X25-M 80GB SSD drives in a RAID0 setup. Then he SLI'd three GeForce GTX 280s, got some PrimoChill PrimoFlex PRO LRT tubing, Aqua Computer full cover water blocks, Bitzpower fittings, a Bitspower chipset block, and lots and lots of fans and LEDs and fans with LEDs.
A lot of the parts were customized either by Penfold himself or by WCUK. Penfold also did a lot of cable organizing, some of the painting, and Fast Signs took care of the viddy well done vinyl art.
The font is just spot on. Makes me want to watch the movie again. Actually just the "Try the wine!" scene. Funny as hell. Anyway. Before the custom rig could be called Overclocked Orange, it had to be overclocked to high heavens first. The Core i7-940, which I think originally runs at 2.93 GHz was oc'ed to 4.0 GHz. Then the other stuff which I could not understand: "CPU PLL voltage to 1.895v, the QPI/DRAM voltage to 1.35v and the DDR3 to 1.65v… increased the core speeds on the three GeForce GTX280s from 602MHz to 730MHz, the stream processors from 1,296MHz to 1,470MHz and the memory from 1,107MHz to 1,275MHz."
After all the super fun building and spending of monies, Penfold went and shared his creation to the Custom PC forums. Internet fame ensued.
Then the BBC called him up and filmed him and his baby for a tech feature. And now Penfold and Overclocked Orange are here. A bit of a step down I suppose, but who cares about that. Publicity is publicity, and this custom rig was built to be flaunted. Our hats off to you, Mremulator.

that's damn impressive people!
…that might be the most attractive custom mod I've seen in 2 years, and trust me that's saying something!
really, emotion aside, I fucking commend the designers on this work and the builder should be proud!
whoa! what a horrorshow of machinery , i must say its almost as addicting as the old moloko with knives to viddy the creation that is so beautiful.
Really original and thoughtful. The problem I see with any overclock system like this is that reality will overtake your creation in a very short time. So what are you going to do? Replace all the innards every 18 months?
"Viddy" means watch, not "very." Also, that case looks awful.
Awesome mod, way to be a cunt brian. you fucking whore. really nice work.

West Ham United
About the club
Where is West Ham United?
West Ham United Football Club is based in London. Their home ground is called The Boleyn Ground and is in Upton Park, Newham. Upton Park is in the east of London and has been associated with football for a long time and many West Ham fans call their home ground Upton Park.
When was the club founded?
West Ham United was founded as the Thames Ironworks team in 1895. They have two nicknames: The Irons and The Hammers and these both relate to the club's origin as an Ironworks team. The club was renamed West Ham United in 1900. Why do West Ham United play in the same colours as Aston Villa?
In 1899, Bill Dove, the father of a West Ham United player, went to a fair in Birmingham. Bill Dove was a professional sprinter and was challenged to a race by four Aston Villa players. The Aston Villa players made a bet that they could beat Bill Dove, but in the end, they all lost and didn't have the money to pay. The Aston Villa players gave Bill Dove a complete team's football kits instead of payment and Bill gave these kits to his son.
Why is the stadium called "The Boleyn Ground"?
The modern stadium is built on a plot of land that used to the gardens of an enormous house called Green house. Locally, Green house had a different name. It was called Boleyn Castle because some people believed that the house was owned by the second wife of King Henry VIII, Anne Boleyn. West Ham United have a castle on their club crest in memory of Boleyn Castle. So Green House which was known unofficially as Boleyn Castle gave its name to The Boleyn Ground which is known unofficially as Upton Park.
What is West Ham west of?
West Ham is actually in the east of London. The word 'ham' when it's part of a town name actually comes from an old English word meaning settlement. There is an area next to West Ham called East Ham. In 1965, a new borough was formed by merging these areas. The new borough was called Newham. Today, Newham is one of the most ethnically diverse parts of the UK.

What We Do For Clean Water:
1997 Water Quality Committee Activities
by Kirk Cunningham, Chair
The Water Quality Committee truly "covers the waterfront." We deal in principle with any issue that is addressed by the Clean Water Act, ranging from pollution discharge permits for the health and protection of wetlands, to the planning and collaboration that is necessary to protect watersheds.
The Committee consists of active members and technical or legal consultants, and has had three major projects this past year, which will continue to be important in 1998.
First, we have sent representatives to the regular meetings of the Colorado Water Quality Control Commission, the Water Quality Forum (a stakeholders' group), to the Colorado Non-Point Task Force, and the Colorado TMDL Task Force. Fortunately, some of our members are retired or otherwise have flexible work schedules that allow them to attend these work-day meetings.
Second, we are involved in a legal action directed toward the EPA. This action addresses the "audit privilege" law that permits polluters to hide from prosecution behind pollution self-audits and negatively impacts the state's water quality program. We are asking the EPA to pressure the State to amend their audit privilege law or suffer loss of their delegated water quality program. This issue should be settled in 1998.
Third, we have sponsored a number of work outings to remove exotic weed species from, and plant native trees in, wetlands on the Wheat Ridge Greenbelt Park on Clear Creek, and the Sawhill Ponds Open Space in Boulder. Betty Jo Page has been the leader of that effort.
In addition, we birddogged pollution discharge and wetland disturbance permits in Colorado, settled successfully a lawsuit (brought by lawyer John Barth) against a hog processing facility in Longmont that was illegally discharging storm water into St. Vrain Creek, and gave some instruction in monitoring stream health to "eco-system mappers" in Jean Smith's National Forest mapping program.
The Committee can easily use more volunteers. If your interest extends to protecting streams and wetlands and if you either have specialized knowledge or are interested in learning and doing in this issue area, call me, Kirk Cunningham, at (303) 939-8519.[chapter/PANDP/footer.htm]

The rooms very spacious, clean and planty of wardrobe space (3women!) the fridge was filled with fresh water daily, beds, towles changed daily. The hotel grounds are beatiful, and the location is on the beach.
The food was lovely, how anyone can call it vile is beyond me! great choice wonderful desserts. However, I have been to Egypt before and I do know that some people get "the bug" fortunately I never have, but why do people always blame the food!!! The Egyptian chemists sell a drug called antenol, clears it up in no time.
The staff in this hotel are excellent, very, very friendly and helpful.
The only thing that may put people off is that Hurghada is a predominantly Russian resort, so there are not a great deal of Brits, but, the Russians were quite entertaining and as there were 3 of us plus some more guests who had been on the boat with us we didnt find a problem.
I have booked just yesterday to go to this hotel again next April and I can't wait.

Top Local Tips for Hurghada
Taxi services. When you finally get through passport control and through arrivals section, don't let one of the white cab drivers try to persuade you to go with them. They tend to try and rip you off and they prefer English money. Look for an independent taxi firm that offer nice clean transportationand always get the price off them prior to getting in the cab.
Insurance Make sure you get some!
The hotel is well out of Hurghada Agree the price of taxi BEFORE you go, howver we found them cheap and ours was reliable, picking us back up as we arranged and we paid him for the whole trip when we arrived back at the hotel

Webster Dictionary
the time of light, or interval between one night and the next; the time between sunrise and sunset, or from dawn to darkness; hence, the light; sunshine
the period of the earth's revolution on its axis. -- ordinarily divided into twenty-four hours. It is measured by the interval between two successive transits of a celestial body over the same meridian, and takes a specific name from that of the body. Thus, if this is the sun, the day (the interval between two successive transits of the sun's center over the same meridian) is called a solar day; if it is a star, a sidereal day; if it is the moon, a lunar day. See Civil day, Sidereal day, below
those hours, or the daily recurring period, allotted by usage or law for work
a specified time or period; time, considered with reference to the existence or prominence of a person or thing; age; time
(Preceded by the) Some day in particular, as some day of contest, some anniversary, etc
A day is a unit of time. In common usage, it is an interval equal to 24 hours. It also can mean the consecutive period of time during which the Sun is above the horizon of a location, also known as daytime. The period of time measured from local noon to the following local noon is called a solar day. Several definitions of this universal human concept are used according to context, need and convenience. In 1967, the second was redefined in terms of the wavelength of light, and it became the SI base unit of time. The unit of measurement for time called "day", redefined in 1967 as 86,400 SI seconds and symbolized d, is not an SI unit, but it is accepted for use with SI. A civil day is usually also 86,400 seconds, plus or minus a possible leap second in Coordinated Universal Time UTC, and, in some locations, occasionally plus or minus an hour when changing from or to daylight saving time. The word day may also refer to a day of the week or to a calendar date, as in answer to the question "On which day?" Day also refers to the part of the day that is not night — also known as daytime. The life patterns of humans and many other species are related to Earth's solar day and the cycle of day and night.

Wow! Whatever happened to the Iowa Jams? I went in the late 70s and early 80's. It was my first experiences with concerts. I watched Don Kirchners rock concerts every Saturday night in the late 70's. Finally found out what it was all about. I remember in between shows when the stage crew was setting up they played Highway to Hell, this was shortly after Bon Scott had died. The crowd went nuts as if it was live.
The first year I went if I can blow off the cobwebs was
Off Broadway/Toto/Babys/Molly Hatchet/Journey...The next one I can barely recall was: Quarterflash/Iron Maiden/38Special/Triumph/Loverboy. I never attended another all day Jam like that until the late 80's in KC for Monsters of Rock:Kingdom Cum?/Dokken/Metallica/Scorpions/
Van Hagar. If ya ever want to party like everyone did back in the hair band days,(mid70's-late80's) go to Sturgis for the week and go to the Buffalo Chip campground.
Hell, just check out the web site and you'll see.

Rep. Henry A. Waxman, Sen. Claire McCaskill, and Rep. Ed Towns issued a new report that finds that the Bush Administration has failed to implement over 13,000 recommendations made by Inspectors General (IGs) since 2001. Federal agencies could save taxpayers over $25 billion by implementing these open recommendations.
Under the Bush Administration, thousands of proposals to make government more efficient languished, said Rep. Waxman. The result has been billions of dollars in waste, fraud, and abuse. Congress will work with the new Administration to restore accountability and increase the effectiveness of our government.
If someone told me that I was losing change from a hole in my pocket and instead of mending it I kept losing money, shame on me. But thats what has happened over the past seven years to the tune of $25 billion, as thousands of inspectors general recommendations were ignored by our government, said Sen. McCaskill. Its time to finally get out some needle and thread.
The Inspectors General have done the hard work of identifying waste and fraud, but agencies have not been fixing the problems, said Rep. Towns. Congress and the Obama Administration should keep the spotlight on wasteful programs until they are running efficiently.
The House Oversight Committee asked the nations IGs to identify all recommendations made between January 1, 2001, and December 31, 2008, that had not been implemented by federal agencies. The information provided shows that the Bush Administration failed to implement 13,847 recommendations since 2001, which could have saved taxpayers $25.9 billion. Almost half of these recommendations were made over a year ago, and more than a quarter were made over two years ago.
The five agencies that could save the most money by implementing open recommendations are the Social Security Administration, the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of Defense, the Department of Transportation, and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
In addition to costing taxpayers billions of dollars, the failure of federal agencies to implement IG recommendations poses serious risks to the American people. Thousands of unimplemented recommendations would improve national and homeland security, public health and safety, environmental protection, and Americans overall quality of life.

So I was brewing a batch yesterday..I have a keggle mash tun with dip tube and false bottom....I went to collect my first runnings opened the valve and nothing...not a drop...hmmm..WTH...I tried to suck on the tube to siphon and got nothing...so when I investigate...I was able to fell around with my mash paddle...and notice I couldn't feel the dip tube...FML..
So my initial reaction to stick my hand in there and reattach...ouch..don't do that its hot
Then I tried and was able to get a hold of the dip tube with a pair of tongs..but couldn't get it reattached...so in frustration I dumped the mash and runnings in another keggle...reattached and dumped back in....and continued like normal..
efficiency and SG where way off.
Anyone ever deal with this...just curious..
"To alcohol! The cause of... and solution to... all of life's problems,"
I've not dislodged my dip tube, but my first time using my FB, I added a short length of tubing underneath to get closer to the bottom of the mash tun. It worked fantastically when I tested with water - only about a cup of liquid left in the cooler.
Not sure if I stirred too vigorously or what during the mash, but I clearly didn't leave enough clearance at the bottom of that pickup tube, and it clogged almost immediately. I had to dump to a kettle, fix the FB, then dump back and try to sparge. Happily my efficiency was still around 70%. I almost went back to my bazooka screen after that, but my next go round went much better.
This doesn't sound like your inaugural usage of the FB though. You've used it with better success previously?
Oh, yes, I've done it.
The sad thing is, I've done it multiple times. And on the same batch. How dumb to you have to be to not put a clamp on it after the second time? And then, during batch sparging as well. Same batch.
Last week, I managed to get a totally stuck mash and dislodge the false bottom. here's the thing, though- it was SCREWED into my keg MLT. I still don't know how I did it. I guess it's my brute strength.
I have a good friend who says about himself, "It's a good thing I'm so good looking because I are stoopid. Wicked stoopid". I could say the same thing about me.

Total AG Ratings: 2,998
one of my tanks is just twirling in circles
it needs naval or air units to make it more exiting
How to win. In the start put your base on the border and blitz them with just two divisions. After than infantry becomes useless. Then just buy a lot of tanks and cannon and attack slowly with you tanks leading your canons.
But they need more sea and air battles, and maybe alliancees, like Empire total war.
Nice GAME
It would be nice to have a larger map.
you know whaut you are talking about
I needs air units and it would be nice to have some allies
The game is cool, but I think that it is missing some aerial & naval battles
multiplayer would be epic come on developers what ya waitin for

Complications are coming up for Christina Applegate's Reagan Brinkley both at work and home on NBC's Up All Night. Actress Eve Best, who steals every scene she's in as Nurse Jackie's Dr. Eleanor O'Hara, has landed a role equivalent to Alec Baldwin's bossy character on 30 Rock. Eve will play a corporate mogul named Yvonne Encanto who takes ownership of The Ava Show, where Reagan works.Yvonne also just happens to be Reagan's idol. As her first order of business, Yvonne instates her lieutenant, Luke (Rescue Me's Steven Pasquale) as the show's day-to-day, hands-on boss, whose hands might just end up on Ava (Maya Rudolph).And on the home front, Reagan and husband Chris (Will Arnett) are about to get some gay neighbors. Playing the part of the Brinkley's new best friends are actors Nat Faxton (co-writer of The Descendants and a voice actor on The Cleveland Show and Allen Gregory) and Ben Falcone (husband of Mike & Molly's Melissa McCarthy). All will go swimmingly with the new besties until a certain deal-breaker rocks the boat.Subscribe to TV Guide Magazine now!

Title: Manhunt 2
Posted: June 23, 2007 (10:18 PM)
never cared enough to play the first one but i can't stand the way some are treating this game like it's going to make murderers out of people. it's just a goddamn game. for the developers to compromise the integrity of their work by cutting out some shit deemed offensive in order to get the game accepted would be appalling. i think the people looking forward to this game don't want a watered-down version. the gaming industry needs to take the next step on censorship and grow some balls. people should have a choice what they want or don't want to play and not have some industry watchdog dictate that for them. that's what the ratings are for.

Maybe your stance would change if you had played the original Manhunt. In Manhunt you play a convicted murdered who gets the lethal injection. Only, he wakes up in an abandoned warehouse. See, there is this snuff movie director who has arranged to free you. All you have to do in return is to brutally murder the guards he has placed for you, and he will record the footage to sell to the sick freaks who get off on that kind of stuff.
And that is pretty much the game. Sneak around, find a person, and then get close enough to them to trigger the FMV of your kill.
Now, I am all for artistic freedom, but would the game really have been any different without the cinematics? I am fairly confident that it would have been derided as a Tenchu or Metal Gear Solid clone, which it IS. And, it is a basic, average one.
My problem with Manhunt is the same problem that the ESRB and the BBFC have, which is a problem of the game lacking a moral centre. If you were just a regular guy who had been kidnapped, then maybe the game would have purpose, and would have escaped the ban. They are not censoring based on content, they are censoring based on setting.
Here's a question? What if Rockstar were to make a game where you play a paedophile, and you manipulate things in order to get yourself alone with a small child? I am willing to bet you would be in total agreement of a ban on that game, and yet you are ready to defend something just as indefensible. It is not time for the industry to grow some balls. It is time for us gamers to do it. I can honestly think of no reason to reccomend Manhunt, and we as gamers should not just bleat about "They are picking on games again" every time something like this happens. There is a world of difference between 'mature', 'adult', and 'not for kids', and it seems to me that a lot of "adult" gamers have a long way to go before they really can call themselves "mature."

Cheekylee, trying to compare Manhunt to a hypothetical pedophile game is a TERRIBLE comparison.
Pedophilia is really, really, really taboo in our society because it's sexually preying on innocent children. Manhunt is about murdering guards, who are trying to kill you as well, and a twist that the footage will be used for a weird fetish is added for shock value. Your main problem with the game is that you play a murderer so he doesn't deserve to kill for his survival (or something). I haven't played Manhunt but the enemies don't exactly look like squeaky clean, innocent bystanders.
My point being in a pedophile game, you'd be a very evil man exacting depraved sexual acts on innocent children. In Manhunt you bludgeon and kill some evil looking dudes and we're to assuming eventually some game world weirdos are going to masturbate to it. Additionally, animated forms of child sex are illegal in the US where as ultra violence and gore in electronic and digital mediums is not.
The Manhunt games are just shock action games. It's no different than an ultra gorey movie. The reason movies get censored is usually due to the studio wanting a lower rating so they can make more money. The only difference is eventually you get an unrated DVD version.

But that's my point. Why is one disgraceful human act any different to another? How come we can plumb one set of depths, yet leave another one untouched? Surely we should not be glorifying ANY negative aspects of the world?
See, you have drawn a line. You are stating that it is ok to show some things in a game, but not others. What the ESRB and BBFC are doing is exactly the same thing. The only difference is where the line is placed. You are quite happy with cold-blooded murder, the two rating bodies are not. You would rightly be up in arms about a paedophilia game, and yet you seemingly have no problem with the rape games that already exist.
I'm not getting at you. I was the same. This rating is what has gotten me to thinking about it.
Developers and players alike need to show a sense of responsibility here, as well as prove their maturity. Instead of crying over spilt milk, we would be much better off accepting the decision. That way, we can turn around and say "See? We don't need any external body telling us what is and isn't fit to publish. What we have already is perfectly adequate." Then, hopefully, they will just let us get on with it.
I can honestly say that my life is unaffected by the withdrawal of Manhunt 2. It would have been unaffected by the release of the game, too. But, I don't know if I can honestly say the same for everybody else. Games do not turn people into violent psychopaths, but they do put potential psychopaths in contact with emotional triggers. The whole world knows that there are just some people that you wouldn't give a gun to. Why are there apparently no people that you shouldn't let virtually strangle someone?
The temptation to defend our hobby is great, but our reaction is often just as much of an over-reaction as our 'enemies' are. We have to think smarter, and pick our battles more carefully. Because, this game is extremely hard to defend. Some things are just not right, regardless if they are in books, movies, on TV, or in video games. Cold-blooded remorseless murder is one of those things.

Rider Profile
An icon on and off the bike, Sir Bradley Wiggins has grown from a celebrated athlete into a household name during his time with Team Sky. Forever to be remembered as the first British rider to win the Tour de France, Wiggins heads into 2014 looking to add to one of the most impressive palmares in the sport.
Wiggins made his name on the track and racked up six world titles and three Olympic gold medals before focusing fully on the road. A podium place at the 2009 Tour de France demonstrated Wiggins's Grand Tour potential and he earned a spell in the Maglia Rosa at the 2010 Giro d'Italia before taking his first WorldTour race win at the 2011 Criterium du Dauphine.
A second Grand Tour podium followed at the 2011 Vuelta a Espana before Wiggins embarked on a near-perfect run in 2012 which saw him win four races on his way to the Tour de France yellow jersey.
2013 brought further success, including the Tour of Britain title, and Wiggins will focus on new objectives in 2014 as he continues to represent Team Sky at the very highest level.
Who inspired you to start cycling?My dad was a cyclist but the thing I remember most is Chris Boardman winning the Olympics in 1992.
How would you like to inspire others?By the way I ride my bike and the way I race.
First bike:It was a Ribble.
First cycling club:The Archer Road Club in west London.
Childhood hero:Miguel Indurain and Sean Yates.
What has cycling taught you?I've never done anything else so it's given me everything and it's made me the person I am today.
How do you keep going when you're on the limit?I go into my own world, think about my effort and whether I can sustain it.
What does it feel like to have good form?It's hard to describe because you're in such deep concentration but when you can cope with the pain it inspires you to go harder.
Previous teams:2001 Linda McCartney Racing Team; 2002-03 Francaise des Jeux; 2004-05 Credit Agricole; 2006-07 Cofidis; 2008 Team High Road; 2009 Garmin-Slipstream.
Favourite race:Paris-Roubaix. The cobbles, the length of it, finishing on the cobbles, it's iconic.
Favourite ride:I used to enjoy riding out of London when I was younger but none stand out in particular.
Career highlight:The London Olympics. Winning the Tour and then the time trial 10 days later, in front of all those people, it's never going to get any better than that.
If you weren't a rider, what would you be?I don't know because I've never done anything else.
Interests away from cycling:Spending as much time as I can with my family.
Favourite film:Platoon
Favourite music:The Jam
Most famous person you've met:The Queen
Interesting fact:I'm a big collector, whether it's records, guitars or scooters.

Burgers are great tailgating food, but sometimes it isn't convienent to grill burgers. Maybe you don't have a grill to tote to the parking lot, or you just don't want to deal with the hassle of it all. We've grilled burgers twice this year, and it is a lot of work. This recipe will satisfy your burger craving without the grill. Simply mix up the hamburger meat, roll it up in some refrigerated pizza dough and bake. Couldn't be simpler or tastier!!
I created this recipe for the Seneca Crispy Onions Gridiron Challenge. Seneca Snacks invited food bloggers to create football friendly recipes with their new Crispy Onions. In case you haven't heard of the new Seneca Crispy Onions, they are sweet, cripsy, salty, toasted onion strips. I like to snack on them right out of the bag! They are also great on burgers, soups or topping a juicy steak. They would also be a great addition to the Thanksgiving green bean casserole.
Bacon Cheeseburger Pinwheels
(Printable Recipe)
1 lb lean hamburger
3 Tbsp tomato juice
1 egg
1/4 cup Seneca Crispy Onions, crushed
4 strips bacon, cooked and finely chopped
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 can refrigerated pizza dough
Preheat oven to 425. In a large bowl, combine first 6 ingredients. Roll the pizza dough into a 9x15 rectangle and top with hamburger mixture. Spread the hamburger evenly over the dough. Starting with the long side, roll up into a log. Slice into 16 pinwheels and place on baking sheet. Bake 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce - Ranch, BBQ, A-1, etc.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
I still play video games a good deal although not nearly as much as I used to so they shall still be my primary source of reviews. But I, like everyone else, have a real life thus I have experience with all sorts of other things so I will be trying my hand at writing reviews for anything I feel the need to.
I have five 'fur babies' as the wife would call them (cats) and I have moved back to my hometown of 'Mayberry' after going out to see the world IE Iowa City and Buffalo NY. I work two jobs and am using epinions as a creative outlet, and someplace where my voice can be heard (even if it is about cat litter).
For videogames I primarily play the Playstation 3 because Sony has never let me down (while Microsoft has never put up a compelling case, and Nintendo has let me down repeatedly) and I have a PSN game addiction. For those interested in friending me on Playstation Network my ID there is identical to my epinions ID (hooray for consistency). I do however dust off the old Wii on occasion to spice up my gaming review variety. For portable gaming I have a PS Vita, PSP, and a 'fatty' Nintendo DS. My collection of dead systems includes X-Box, Playstation 2, Playstation, Dreamcast, Nintendo 64, Super Nintendo, Atari Jaguar, Genesis, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance, NES, and the Atari 2600, and I'm considering buying a Gamecube just for giggles.
My addiction to low cost PSN games appears to be my reviewing niche, since I enjoy trying a variety of experimental games and re-inventions of classic gaming styles. Probably the only genres I don't care for being first person shooters and fighting games.
I am at a point in my epinions experience that I enjoy writing more than I enjoy reading so I primarily only write reviews. I figure that epinions need people of all types, those who like to write, those who like to read, and those who like to do both. And to each their own, I do appreciate everyone who takes the time to read and rate and comment on my reviews, so thank you very much. Just please don't take offense if you don't see me reading and rating all of your stuff, I can barely find the time to write reviews let alone read and rate for everyone who does the kindness for me.
I personally feel that a good review should find a balance between being informative and being entertaining. Informative because you are reviewing a product and informing people is the true purpose of the review. Entertaining because the people reading it don't have to read it so you should at least do them the favor of making it an enjoyable experience for them.
Here is a shout out to my hard working pet supply testers, also known as "The Feline Horde", I couldn't review that kitty litter and cat toys without you!

If you have a Temporary Protection Visa, you will not be paid Double Orphan Pension if you leave Australia for any reason.
Australian Defence Force members deployed overseas or Australian Federal Police engaged in peacekeeping or capacity building activities overseas, may be paid for longer than the usual period up to a maximum of 3 years.
Advising us of your travel outside Australia
You should tell us if you or your dependent children are leaving Australia and:
- will be away for longer than 6 weeks
- are paid under the terms of a social security agreement, or
- you hold a Partner Provisional or Interdependency visa and you are leaving due to an acute family crisis, for medical treatment overseas or for humanitarian reasons

RELEASED: May 14, 2007
EAU CLAIRE — University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire students moving out of the residence halls this spring will be invited to fight hunger and help those in need by donating extra nonperishable food from their dorm rooms Saturday, May 12 through Saturday, May 19. The food drive runs during the entire "move out" period when the majority of students leave the dorms for the summer.
Every residence hall lobby will have food collection boxes, and the food will ultimately go to Eau Claire's Feed My People Food Bank, where it will be distributed to food pantries throughout Western Wisconsin. Organized by two AmeriCorps*VISTA members working out of the Center for Service-Learning with volunteer help from Student Senate, the food drive is in its second year. In the drive during the same period last year more than 3,500 pounds of food was collected.
"This 'move out' period food drive gives students with leftover food, or food they would rather not transport home, a chance to make sure it goes to good use," said Jeremy Gragert, founder and lead organizer of the project as an AmeriCorps*VISTA member at the Center for Service-Learning. "It's not often that food pantry shelves can offer the types of food that dorm life seems to foster, so the folks in need are happy to have a little variety."
Davin Haukebo-Bol, also an AmeriCorps*VISTA member, and Betsy Lorenz, student services director for the Student Senate, are also primary organizers.
For more information about the food drive, or if you wish to volunteer, call Gragert at 715-836-5283, or email him at firstname.lastname@example.com. For more information about Feed My People Food Bank, visit their Web site.

Hi everyone,
I've told you my resolutions, my bad habits, and now it's time to share some predictions. While I don't really follow trends–most of my inspiration comes from you guys!–I do have a couple thoughts on what will be big in beauty in 2012.
Beauty Trend #1: The Natural Look
The trend last year was for a super dramatic look, but already this year it's all about the clean, natural look. I really like how light and fresh this look is.
Beauty Trend #2: Strong Lips
I think strong lips will complement the natural look nicely and would add a touch of color and life. Lipstick in general seems to be becoming more popular (click here to see how you can use the same tube of lipstick to achieve more than 4 different lip looks.)
What are your 2012 beauty predictions? What do you think will become the next popular look?
