Entercom Announces Agreement To Acquire San Francisco's KBLX-FM
Entercom Communications Corp. (NYSE: ETM) today announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire 102.9 KBLX-FM ("KBLX") from Inner City Media Corporation and its subsidiaries for $25.0 million in cash. KBLX is the leading urban station in the San Francisco market.
KBLX will become the fourth brand in Entercom's San Francisco cluster, joining Entercom's existing lineup of the market's #1 rated music station 96.5 KOIT-FM, sports talk station The Game 95.7 KGMZ-FM and classic rock station 98.5/102.1 KUFX-FM. Entercom will begin operating KBLX under a time brokerage agreement ("TBA") which will take effect after approval by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court which is administering ICMC's bankruptcy proceedings and overseeing the sales process. Entercom expects the TBA to be approved in late April and plans to maintain the station's urban programming format. The closing of the transaction is subject to certain customary closing conditions, including approval of the Federal Communications Commission which is expected later this year.
Entercom's President and CEO David Field stated: "We could not be more pleased to add KBLX-FM to our San Francisco radio line-up. KBLX is the leading urban radio station in the San Francisco market and has a long history of producing distinctive and compelling programming. The addition of KBLX strengthens our competitive positioning in San Francisco and enhances our ability to provide outstanding content to our listeners and broad audience reach and effective marketing opportunities to our advertisers."
Entercom San Francisco Vice President and Market Manager Dwight Walker commented: "KBLX has done a magnificent job of serving the local community and we look forward to continuing to do that at Entercom."About Entercom Communications Entercom Communications Corp. (NYSE: ETM), led by President and CEO David J.

McALLEN, Texas (AP) - A former South Texas sheriff who had pleaded guilty to money laundering was sentenced to five years in prison Thursday in what the judge called a sad day for the county.
U.S. District Judge Micaela Alvarez departed from sentencing guidelines that topped out at less than four years to impose a stiffer penalty on former Hidalgo County Sheriff Lupe Trevino.
Alvarez said many questions remained about how much money Trevino really took from a known drug trafficker. She said Trevino admitted to accepting $20,000 to $25,000 - double the amounts in question that were recorded in his re-election campaign account.
"You knew that this person was a drug trafficker," Alvarez said. "You are contributing to the problem that we have in this county." She said cases like Trevino's diminish the public's trust.
Standing before the judge, Trevino made no excuses.
"I'm sorry. It happened. I did it," he said.
Trevino apologized to his wife and children, "because our last name will always be synonymous with what happens here today."
Trevino's four-decade career in law enforcement began unraveling when on Dec. 13, 2012, federal prosecutors announced the arrests of one of Trevino's sons - a local police officer - and two of Trevino's deputies. They were members of a joint task force targeting the street-level drug trade. Within months they pleaded guilty to participating in a conspiracy to steal drug loads and resell them to another trafficker.
Trevino has maintained that he had no knowledge of the rogue unit's activities, including the role of his son, who was living in his home at the time.
Trevino's own case was separate, but he referenced the date of his son's arrest as the start of events that led to his resignation in March. A couple weeks afterward on April 14, Trevino pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to launder money.
His lawyer, Robert Yzaguirre, tried to persuade Alvarez on Thursday that his position as sheriff should not weigh more heavily on his sentence, but the judge wasn't having it.
"The reason the donation is made is because he is the sheriff at the time," Alvarez said. She said Trevino accepted money on at least two occasions in 2011 and 2012. She also alluded to the investigation finding that $40,000 in cash was deposited in Trevino's accounts over a two-year period and asked why that would be the case for a salaried government employee. She did not receive an answer.
"Clearly money was being accepted here and pocketed," she said.
Trevino, who began serving as sheriff in 2005, started his career as a local police officer in the 1970s. He spent 14 years as an officer in the Austin Police department before returning to South Texas to work as an investigator in the district attorney's office.
South Texas sheriffs have gotten into trouble before.
Former Starr County Sheriff Rey Guerra was sentenced to federal prison in 2009 for his role in a drug-smuggling conspiracy. Former Cameron County Sheriff Conrado Cantu was sentenced to federal prison in 2005 for running a criminal enterprise. And former Hidalgo County Sheriff Brig Marmolejo was sentenced to prison for taking bribes in 1994.

Comments about Deluxe Child Speed Racer Costume:
Did not come with trucker hat. Half mask included instead. The white in the jacket was yellowish & the pants were super white so it didnt match & looked a bit odd. Not completely happy with this but my daughter loved it. Plus it made a great gift for my husband who is a BIG fan of Speed Racer.

Whether a novel RTP or an abhang, Aruna Sairam was in her element. B.V. Balasai was sonorous for the most part.
The crowded foyer and the long winding queues outside the auditorium spoke of the popularity of Aruna Sairam. A strongly etched Khambodi and the classic 'Koniyadina Napai' by Veenai Kuppaier kept the exciting concert aloft. The niraval at 'Markandeyuni' and the swara adjunct was true to Aruna's way of singing striking swaras.
When one kept wondering about what had happened to the magnificent chittaiswaram that came after the anupallavi, she threw a surprise by integrating it at the tail-end of the kalpanaswaras.
Aruna is a a liberated singer; she wants to be different; so her statements are bold, loud and clear, both literally and figuratively. She makes no bones about wooing the audience with her vociferous style whether it is raga, kriti rendition, niraval or swara. Aruna's voice may not be syrupy sweet; so what? She warmed the cockles of her rasikas' hearts with her vitalising delivery. After the opening Aboghi varnam and a slow Devagandhari ('Seetha Vara'), she drafted a raga essay with phrases for Amritavarshini. 'Sudhamayee' was fast and buoyant with strident swaras where H.N. Bhaskar on the violin matched her well in his replies.
The Ragam Tanam Pallavi in Kharaharapriya moved on traditional lines --- a two-part alapana, a precise tanam and the pallavi 'Amba Sambavi Kathyayani Karaharapriye' set in kanda jathi triputa talam.
Sairam dressed it up the swara kalpana in her unique fashion by adding a ragamalika train, each carriage landing on a swara in ascending scale with ragas such as Ranjani, Kanada, Hindolam, Ananda Bhairavi, Mohanam and Revati and the finale combining all the ragas. The objective was fulfilled. This novelty received a thunderous ovation from the audience.
Aruna also showed that she can turn sober with the sedate 'Ehi Annapoorne' in Punnagavarali, 'Seetha Vara' in Devagandhari and 'Mani Noopura Dari' in Neelamabari. Oh yes! There was her speciality, the abhang -- 'Vittala Vittala' -- before she concluded with 'Thandai Thai Irunthal' in Shanmukhapriya made popular by the late N.C. Vasanthakokilam.
H.N. Bhaskar followed Aruna fantastically garnering applause now and then while J. Vaidyanathan and S. Karthick on the mridangam and the ghatam soft-pedalled with right tenor and decibel level.
The flute recital of B.V. BALASAI was sonorous in most of the segments but for a few shrill upper register sojourns. The ragas and kritis chosen were soft, like the opening 'Thatvamariya Tharama' in Ritigowla with a few swara passages, the light 'Tanyudevvado' in Malayamarutham and 'Mamava Meenakshi' in Varali in the first section. His raga treatise of Varali was not too inspiring but conformed to standards. The niraval-swara package was done with credibility.
At this point, Balasai preferred to accelerate his concert with a quick 'Saravanabhava' in Pasupathipriya and 'Paavanaguru' in Hamsanandi. The latter had quick successive rounds of swaras. With these, he settled for the elaboration of Khambodi with time-tested phrases, long karvais, frills and pauses. 'O Rangasayee' and the extension of his ingenuity were made visible on 'Bhooloka Vaikuntam.'
He enjoyed good support from S.R. Mahadeva Sarma on the violin, Palladam R. Ravi on the mridangam and A.S. Shankar on the ghatam. Balasai's concert was pleasant; but there were only a few present. Maybe it was the late hour. Only rasikas should have the answer!

The Untold Story of the Whydah from Slave Ship to Pirate Ship
The classical age of piracy is brought to life in Real Pirates! Open now through April 19, 2015
Real Pirates tells the true story of the Whydah – a pirate ship that sank off the coast of Cape Cod nearly 300 years ago. The exhibition features treasure chests filled with coins from all over the world, including authentic coins that visitors can touch, pirate dress items, daily objects used aboard the ship, jewelry, and technically advanced weaponry of the time – 18th century cannon, pistols and swords. These artifacts were painstakingly recovered from the ocean floor by underwater explorer Barry Clifford and his team over the past two and a half decades. One of the most striking artifacts is a replica of the ship's bell, inscribed "Whydah Galley 1716," which was used to authenticate the shipwreck site as that of the Whydah.
Real Pirates is a touring exhibition organized by National Geographic and Premier Exhibitions, Inc.
Exhibition highlights:
- After looting more than 50 ships, the Whydah sank off the coast of Cape Cod in a violent storm nearly 300 years ago
- Real Pirates will have authentic chests of coins, jewelry, cannons, pistols and a replica of the actual ship that visitors can board
- Real Pirates will provide visitors with the history and context of the economic, social and political circumstances of the early 18th Century
- The exhibition will be enjoyable for both kids and adults

Pirate's Code: The Adventures of Mickey Matson
Starting November 2, visit the Museum on special days and see West Michigan film Pirate's Code: The Adventures of Mickey Matson.
In this sequel to "Mickey Matson and the Copperhead Treasure," our heroes, Mickey and his best friend Sully, are forced to take on a mission to save our country from the evil plans of Admiral Ironsides. The Admiral and his motley crew of modern day pirates have taken control of a large merchant ship with plans of deploying a new type of weapon that could destroy every electronic device on Earth. If Ironsides succeeds, it could be the end of the world as we know it.
Located in the Meijer Theater at the GRPM. No ticket required. Run time 1 hr & 40 minutes.
Be ready for a rich and exciting experience that engages visitors from their first step into the exhibit. Young visitors are especially enthralled, drawn to the authentic artifacts presented in a range of media. The exhibit may be viewed from many different perspectives and thus lends itself naturally to interdisciplinary studies. Some of the content areas you will discover embedded in the exhibit include: geography, history, and social studies; science and technology; art and music; language arts; math and measurement.

There is a 50 percent chance your unprotected Windows PC will be
compromised within 12 minutes of going online, says security vendor
Highlighting the increasing speed of online attacks in research
covering the last six months of virus activity, the vendor said the
news was mostly grim.
Authors of malware such as spam, viruses, phishing scams and spyware
increased both the volume and sophistication of their assaults,
releasing almost 8,000 new viruses in the first half of 2005 and
increasingly teaming up in joint ventures to make money. The new-virus
figure is up 59 percent on the same period last year.
"With financial gain rather than notoriety becoming more of a
motivation, spammers and virus writers have been drawn together with
more traditional criminal elements," said Sophos Australia and New
Zealand senior technical consultant Sean Richmond.
While the usual virus culprits like Zafi-D, Netsky-P and Sober-N came
under the spotlight, Sophos said growth in Trojan attacks -- where
malicious software allows a remote attacker to gain backdoor access to
a PC -- was perhaps the most significant development in the
malware-creation field.
"Sophos has seen a three-fold increase in the number of key-logging
Trojans so far this year," the company said. "Trojans are delivered to
target organisations via e-mail attachments or links to Web sites.
They are often used by remote hackers to steal priviledged
information, and very often to launch further attacks."
But Sophos made it clear the news wasn't all bad. "Businesses in
Australia and New Zealand mostly have it right when it comes to
protecting their desktops, servers and gateways," said Richmond. "On
the other hand, we've seen significant numbers of unprotected home
computers become zombies for spammers,"
Richmond praised the Australian telecomms regulator for its recent
move to press charges against Perth-based alleged spammer Wayne
Mansfield. Mansfield is one of Australia's most notorious Internet
marketeers and stands accused of sending at least 56 million -- mostly
unsolicited -- e-mails in the period after the Spam Act was enacted in
April 2004.
Events further afield also caught Sophos' attention, as it highlighted
several recent prosecutions of virus and privacy-related Internet
One dealt with the impending trial of German teenager Sven Jaschan,
who has admitted writing the Netsky and Sasser worms, while another
involved the arrest of a Cypriot man who was spying on a 17-year-old
girl via her own Webcam.

CA Prospect Profiles: Alex Friesen
Cam Davie
August 19 2011 01:26PM
Alex Friesen is the one in the middle. Yeah... the short one.
(Photo from canucks.com)
The Vancouver Canucks have really enjoyed drafting smallish centers recently. Cody Hodgson, Jordan Schroeder and Alex Friesen are all in the Canucks system, all possess great skill, and all are under six feet tall and 200 pounds. The problem for all three of them, is that the Canucks have an incredible stable of centers ahead of them. Forgive the pun, but Alex Friesen has drawn the short straw in the Canucks depth chart, coming up seventh.
Does Alex Friesen have the tools to move his way up the Canucks ladder at center? Or is he going come up short? (**Ed.note - I could make short jokes all day long)
Cheers and Jeers - Vol. 5

It's Friday. We close out the Week That Was with our latest volume of Cheers and Jeers.
We start this week with a humble cheers to the local boys who won the Cup and brought it home this past weekend.
CA Prospect Profiles: David Honzik
Thomas Drance
August 18 2011 02:30PM
When it comes to goaltenders, the Canucks are stacked. The organization boasts Roberto Luongo - signed through the rest of this century, Cory Schneider - a bluechip young NHLer, and Eddie Lack - perhaps the best goalie in the AHL. So when Mike Gillis used his second draft pick at the 2010-11 NHL Draft to select 6,3 Czech netminder David Honzik, some fans were confused.
Last season, David Honzik was a QMJHL rookie with the Victoriaville Tigers. He struggled mightily with the transition and put up subar regular season stats. By seasons end, however, he'd won the starting job from veteran goaltender Antonio Masopietro and posted spectacular numbers in the QMJHL playoffs.
Canucks Roster Depth: Goaltending
Cam Davie
August 18 2011 02:12PM
"Dude, have you tried that blue meth that Heisenberg cooked up?! IT'S SO AWESOME!"
"Um, Roberto. You need to calm the hell down immediately, before you allow 8 goals against Boston."
(Photo by Jeff Vinnick, NHLI Via Getty Images Files)
Canucks Army continues a series where we look at the depth at each position for the Vancouver Canucks.
In our fourth installment of our series, we look at the Canucks depth at GOALTENDING.
The city of Vancouver and the Canucks hockey club has been a goalie graveyard for most of the 40 years that the Canucks have been in the NHL. However, since they acquired Roberto Luongo in a summer blockuster trade in 2006, the Canucks have had a legitimate #1 goaltender and have since grown and developed their depth players. Now the Canucks have a very enviable tandem in net and improving depth in the minors.
NHL Announces US National TV Schedule
August 18 2011 12:38PM
The NHL announced the games that'll be shown on Versus/NBC this year and the list is pretty bizarre. There are some teams with a ton of appearances that make sense. The four way tie for second place between Boston, Detroit, Pittsburgh and Washington sees them with 14 potential appearances each. They're all major ratings draws due to being in large American hockey markets, having recent success and/or having Crosby and Ovechkin.
In first place is the New York Rangers with 16 potential appearances which makes little to no sense. The Rangers will be mediocre again like they are every year and despite NYC being the largest US media market most people outside of New York hate NYC and the Rangers.

They WERE not cheating. There are many evidence to support it. And with so much money at stake, do you actually think that after that incident, Riot would not try and see if it is possible to cheat? Anyways, let's talk about the cheating. Dude, did you know something called the 'camera angle' ? It's like how some people (mostly girls) taking their pictures from a certain angle so to make themselves look better in the photo. It was merely the camera angle that makes it look like they are looking at the big screen or the mini map. And do you know the distance between them and the screen is soooooo damn much? Even if 2 specs or a magnifying glass, it would be so difficult to peek at the screen. There are some pictures that show this too but I don't know and am lazy to go hunting for these pics but they have pictures of TSM players looking at their own teammates and seem like they are also cheating. And if you noticed, (INGAME: Jayce was shooting into a brush which was odd People think so but it seems only natural, after all you would play safe in any situation and they are playing against professionals here. It is wise not to take any chances here.) this was smart play and I would add q first too. There are actually more evidence than this but I am just too lazy to write further more. Good day to all. PS: Upvote if you think what I say is making sense and Downvote if you think this is trash. I just want to see how many people agrees or disagrees. If I have the time I will provide evidence for what i said.

I am expecting this thread to "vanish" into thin air over the night. I wonder why...
I honestly cannot believe how any self-respecting, intelligent company could not see this coming. I love this game, but man Riot sure knows how to mess things up.

Legal Question in Personal Injury in Arizona
I an in the middle of a law sue, I was involved in an accident but it was the other driver's fault, even though the insurance company accepted the responsibility the Doctor, exams costs and attorney's fees are higher than the amount I am receiving as a compensation, I declined the offer they made hoping there is another possibility I am still in pain since the accident and the visits to the doctor didn't help at all, If I go to another lawyer what are the chances of getting a fair compensation???
1 Answer from Attorneys
Pretty slim... whether you have an attorney working for you on a contingency fee basis or an hourly basis, you are responsible for payment of the bills in accordance with your legal service agreement. When you have been represented by an attorney in a personal injury case, generally speaking, that attorney has a legal service agreement which spells out your obligations in the event that services are terminated. An attorney is entitled to reasonable attorneys fees based upon the work performed by that attorney, even if they are discharged before your matter resolves. Changing attorneys often does not eliminate your obligation to pay the first attorney since most will put a lien on your case for the reasonable fees for services which they provided. Having two attorneys who have worked on a contingency basis will not necessarily get you a higher settlement from an insurance company. In any event, you are probably going to be responsible for cost associated with the legal services including filing fees, court reporters, process servers. Read your legal service agreement before you decide to switch your attorney -- especially if you are not paying for the services on an hourly basis.

(Limenitis arthemis astyanax)
This breathtaking butterfly is thought to be one of the most attractive butterflies in North America. It has blue iridescent wings with vibrant orange spots on the underside of the wings. The Red-spotted Purple mimics the Pipevine Swallowtail but is not a swallowtail at all; it's in the family with brush-footed butterflies. It enjoys open wooded areas and wooded edges. The butterfly will visit plants for nectar but setting out extra treats such as overly ripened fruit will encourage a longer stay. The males enjoy puddling from time to time and can be a little territorial.
Family: Brush-footed Butterfly (Nymphalidae)
Subfamily: Admiral and Relative (Limenitidinae)
Average Wingspan: 2 1/4" – 4"

Champion Herald
Earlier this week, Senior Producer Lance Stites appeared on Reddit to speak with summoners about the upcoming Hecarim patch. The League of Legends community brought lively and informative questions to the table, and we enjoyed the give-and-take they provided. These are all the questions he answered, and we wanted to provide a curated version to all of you.
Sweded: I just saw some post (on reddit somewhere, a pic from PBE) about being able to rightclick a friend from the friendslist to spectate the game they are playing. Care to elaborate if this is some feature that is being implemented in the upcoming patch or something that we weren't supposed to see yet? Thanks!
Lance: Yes, that is a feature that's currently on test on the PBE. However, it isn't expected with Hecarim but I am anxious to see it released with an upcoming patch.
VotedBestDressed: What kind of bugs delayed the patch?
Lance: A few example bugs include:
Significant issues with the surrender function
Some champions occasionally become un-targetable
Champions that undergo any form of transformation will occasionally revert to their previous form, instead of dying. (Example when Kogmaw dies, he transforms into his Icathian surprise, then instead of blowing up and dying, hes resurrected as normal Kogmaw. A probably more interesting case for this is that players can potentially be transformed into cupcakes permanently via Lulu.)
ApplesFromKira: Will this push back subsequent patches by the same amount?
Lance: Not necessarily, the next patch is not complete. However there's no doubt that we're spending a lot of effort getting this ready, but the release timing isn't directly tied to our Hecarim release.
Melesion: Hello, how did you manage to reduce the downtime of the server(since a couple of patch) ? And what do you think of the 'patch every 2 weeks' format?
Lance: I think the first step was realizing how important it was to our players and sitting down and putting together a team to really tackle the issue.
We started measuring our release times and got our entire company behind decreasing release times.
The team that was responsible for this effort was recognized in front of the entire company.
This does speak to our core value of being player focused.
Raise4Value: What do you do, on a daily base, to ensure the quality of the live-servers?
Lance: Everybody in the company participates in the health of our global service. We have a distribution list where anyone can mail in and report any problems they experience.
We also have a dedicated monitoring team that looks at the technical health of the service. (Capacity, response times, lag)
We monitor your feedback on our forums. Our Player Support team monitors the tickets that you guys submit and alerts us to any major emerging issues.
Any major incident is escalated to the Live Service Team with an escalation matrix that starts with me and if not properly resolved, can be escalated up to the President of the company.
1)How are the developers grouped up at Riot? Do you have a specific group of devs that focus strictly on the core engine/graphics, and another that possibly work on server connectivity and user authentication? Or do all of your developers dabble in everything?
2)How does your build cycle work? Do you do daily internal builds and deployments to QA and Staging environments?
3)How big is your internal QA team? Are most of them gamers, or do they come from a long QA background?
Let's start off with 1.
We've got teams that work on features, champions, skins, and other components of the service. Most of our developers are focused on delivering new features.
For number 2.
This is a high level summary of our overall release process:
A. The development teams creates new features and content (weeks or in some cases months). At some point they hit code-lock.
B. This is where it comes into the release cycle.
C. We begin internal testing on the Release Candidate, and submit bugs for correction.
D. Make sure that all public announcements happen. Conduct a Go / No-Go for PBE release.
E. Review the feedback on PBE and make any further required changes.
F. Take it to live.
Number 3.
Almost everyone at Riot are gamers.
We have a combination of embedded QA that works directly with their teams. There's also a QA team dedicated to the release process.
Our QA testers come from a variety of backgrounds, we have an incredibly high bar for anyone that gets into Riot.
We get over a hundred applications for each of our QA positions and we only select the best. Whether that's the most experienced, or the smartest, there's no such thing as "just a tester" at Riot.
Reilwin: Ooh source control is a good question I'd like to see Lanceed!
Lance: We're currently using Perforce as our primary version control.
IAmYourKing: Can you give us an estimated date/time on when the Hecarim patch will be released?
Lance: We're still working on some big outstanding bugs, so unfortunately it won't be before this weekend.
Drake0727: What type of development do you use when you prepare patches to be deployed into the public/production realm. I assume scrum, but could be wrong.
Also what happens when you recall a patch? Does the users that have the patch installed just rollback to version (new patch ->previous patch), or does a new "patch install" have to be implemented for them to go back a version?
Lance: We use a Riot version of AGILE.
If we revert, it will do a diff between content needed and adjust your client.
Lobos717: Will Varus be included in the next patch with Hecarim? I've been really looking forward to him. (edit, thanks Alexij)
Lance: Varus will come out with the patch following Hecarim.
Dancing_bagel: If you have the time could you sum up the testing process for new patches? Do the QA guys get a specific list of things to try out in a game, or would they go into teams of 5 and play an average game in an attempt to spot any bugs?
Do any spells cause you particular problems, such as Anivia's wall?
Lance: We take it through an internal process, we have daily play tests that the entire company is invited to and participates in. We also have a QA team that follows extensive checklists to test all components and champions, including new content as well as old content.
We've recently started using a Public Beta Environment which allows you guys, the players, to start participating in our releases.
Echono: Out of curiosity, what do you see as being different in the current PBE compared to the old PBE you used to have? Why did you take it down for so long, and then put it back up (relatively) recently?
Lance: The original version was limited in what we deployed. (Didn't have the new champion) We've optimized internal process in order to get content out faster, and this more accurately represents what we actually deploy.
Shadowgripper: How do bugs like "Unable to target champions on the field" or "Unable to surrender" even happen? Are you really changing that much to the core of league of legends?
Lance: Software development, especially ongoing persistent changes can have extensive impact.
Not every change we're making is specifically related to the new content, but can be related to enhancements or new features. (Sometimes even preparing for new features in future releases.)
Nogrid: Are the bugs only centered around Hecarim or do they effect the other balance changes? If they don't effect the normal champion balance is it possible to release that sooner while waiting for the Hecarim bugs to be ironed out?
Lance: No, there are a variety of quality of life bug fixes that still need to happen. The Hecarim champ relies on new technology, so it wasn't an easy task to simply pull him out and deliver him to the players.
Dwhizzle: Lance, first, thanks for the AMA, and keep up the great work at Riot. I have a more over-arching question for you -- When do you personally see the champion releases for LoL beginning to slow down?
I know this has been spoken about before (I believe it was Zileas/Morello) that roughly after 100 champs, champion releases would spread out a little more. Can you shed any insight on this?
Lance: That's more a game design question versus live services.
My job is to release 'em as I get 'em.
Malph1te: is hecraim fun : ) ?
Lance: He's a giant undead centaur...so yeah.
Jawtramp: Despite what anyone says: we appreciate it.
Lance: Big thanks. No one's more frustrated than us, and we wanted to take this opportunity to give you guys some insight into the process of getting a champion out. We have been working on these issues non-stop since last week and will continue to do so until it's ready.
Senior Member
Love the openness between Riot and the summoners
Why me qq
First, first page?!
These are some nice interesting topics, I am glad that they did this for the players, giving them reasoning why the patch was delayed, it's a really nice touch Riot!
cool history, cool history.
last comment made my day
Thanks for the update!
Coolness, glad we got some kinda update on it all. Not looking forward to the champion release slow down at 100 Champs since we are already at that mark, and I still don't like any of the ranged AD Carries...
If Pulsefire EZ, Varus & Hecarim came out on the same day, then I'll be throwing my wallet at my screen

Radical tricycle concept responds to your body's motion
Just like we've known since we were little, three-wheeled vehicles are awesome. This sleek trike concept from designer David Parrott has a few more features than your average preschooler's ride, though.
Parrott's Trimtab 3x3 is strictly for grown-ups with fine-tuned adult motor skills and balance. Let's start with the steering. Every turn you make relies on your body's movements — just lean and it'll turn, handlebars be damned! In case you do need a little extra help, though, there are hydraulic levers that will give you a nudge around particularly stubborn curves.
There's also a small storage compartment in the back that stays upright no matter how wildly you're attacking those winding roads, and an acrylic windscreen to make you and your cargo more aerodynamic as well as protect you from inclement weather.
Just throw in a GPS and some LEDs and we'll be ready to take this concept out on the town.
