Great Speaker for the Money Written By Anonymous, Mi on Thursday, February 05, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought these for my 97 TJ. Work great for a budget speaker. Crutchfield's wiring was spot on and installation was simple.
Squeal Machines Written By Wendell, West Texas on Friday, January 30, 2015 These sound like fingernails across a chalkboard. Swapped them out for a pair of awesome sounding Kicker 40CS464. Got the Pioneers based on all the glowing reviews. Big mistake. Pros: A big fat zero. None. Nada. Cons: Pioneer must think that all anybody in a vehicle wants to hear are loud high frequencies. Not.
Good product Written By Mark B, Hiwasse Ar. on Wednesday, January 28, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Good sound for such a little speaker.......... Pros: All good, Later I think I will put some more power to them and see how they improve. Cons: None what so ever...........
Sound great to me Written By Spaceman, Texas on Saturday, January 03, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great improvement over stock Jeep speakers.
Pioneer TS-G4644R Written By HarleyFXRC, California on Wednesday, December 24, 2014 Great sounding speakers for their size Pros: Came with all installation hardware and wiring. I chose to remove the original speaker connection from the speaker and adapt it to the new speaker. Took a bit of time and solder but looks good. Cons: These speakers have a bigger magnet than the stock. So on the left speaker I had to trim about an 1/8" off the corner of the back of the dash instrument panel so it would fit.

A good product Written By Jim, WV on Sunday, October 12, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I put these speakers in a 95 Jeep YJ and they sound better than my old ones ever did. I would recommend these to anybody. Pros: They sound very good. Easy to wire in. Cons: This is my ONLY negative statement on these speakers BUT this could be coming from having to mount these speakers in a tight place and the front touching the grill. When I turn up the base the speakers have a vibration to them, When I turn the base off the sound is clear and sounds very good to me. So this could be where and how I had to mount them on my Jeep. I would still recommend them to anybody.

Pioneer 4X6 speakers Written By Rick, JAX, FL on Thursday, July 31, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) They have good sound, with decent mid bass. I think the specs are pretty far off base to say they will go down to 40 htz.They come with an adapter plate that makes it easy to mount in a factory location. The free Crutchfield wiring adapters make it easy to use the factory wiring. Pros: Good sound, good price Cons: non

"Old creepy men with magical abilities? Where have I heard that before..." -Sebastian Dulore, Servent of Shadows But I do agree, seems like he's running/avoiding someone/some people. Chances are, he's a mage in disguise or something. Also; WHY DOES NO ONE LOVE SEBASTIAN! I'm trying to make him friendly D= (if not a little creepy due to his nature of, well, being old)
Scarlet appears to be in love with everyone, on everyone's good side, is very pleasant to have around. She's a demon of desire, for goodness sake.
Horns are a stereotype.
Technically, Tobias likes most everyone. At the moment, he doesn't know whether he can trust Sebastian or not... being that he's from Noxus, and he knows his name, things don't immediately bode well for Toby. On the other hand he's doing his best to be friendly with all those around, and he might just get along rather well with Sebastian. (He even attempted to order him a drink shortly before everyone left, despite knowing that he had tea.) As for why he's so antsy, that's my client's business, it's my job to make sure that whatever happens to be removed is promptly reattached. I'll be -very- surprised if this doesn't have something to do with the void, though. (For whatever reason, I connect Shurima more with the void than with anything else.) Bonez gave me the alternate idea that he's leading us to a dungeoncrawl via a map. Though I first thought it was a spell-scroll/information of some kind. To Gamefreak: I'm 100% certain that you're welcome here. It's unlikely that it's just a place to not use mun bubbles. Heck, they actually said that anyone could stay around in the other one and use mun bubbles :P

Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)
Critics Consensus: Its special effects -- and 3D shots -- are undeniably impressive, but they aren't enough to fill up its loud, bloated running time, or mask its thin, indifferent script.

An overlong ordeal, devoid of excitement and intrigue.
This movie is actively making the world a worse place to live. I am certain Michael Bay considers it his masterwork. He's right. God help us all.
Transformers: Dark Of The Moon is one of the best blockbuster I've seen in years. No other action film can compare to what is undoubtedly Michael Bay's magnum opus, this is the film to beat this summer!
By a thin margin, the best film in the series. Funnier. But that's not saying much.
Easily transformed into the worst summer blockbuster of the year.
Despite an over-long and underwhelming build-up, the final hour of Dark of the Moon is an all-out action fest with some of the coolest visuals ever put to film.
If you like mindless spectacle, this is undoubtedly the frontrunner so far this year.
[Bay], having seemingly learned nothing from the last film, allows just about all of the same mistakes to be made yet again.
Intensely juvenile, casually sexist, and blatantly stupid in ways that few if any over the age of "T for Teen" or bereft of a Y chromosome could enjoy. [3D Blu-ray]
Remarkable action set pieces and stunning effects, but this third outing of Transformers is sometimes just as clunky and irritating as the second.
Loud and long, this 3rd installment boasts a better plot and impressive CGI while maintaining its juvenile level of comedy - the target audience will likely love it.
You either take it on faith that the succession of scenes and exposition actually add up to a story and enjoy the ride, or sink 2 1/2 hours into the most expensive abstract disaster film ever made.
...it takes a certain talent to create as much action as Bay does without generating an ounce of excitement.
Transformers 3 is the archetype of a summer blockbuster-all explosions and chest-swelling bravado and snarky sidekicks and big guns and hot chicks and hero shots.
Better than the second film in the franchise, this film is still as hollow and unimportant as its predecessor.
The third outing for a herd of toys that should have stayed in their boxes.
Michael Bay's latest adolescent fantasy for grown men is a moderate improvement over both of its predecessors, which is about the best thing it has going for it.
The Transformers series comes to a merciful close with this hopelessly anticlimactic installment that is, as expected, just as underwhelming and unwatchable as its predecessors...
Once the film stops trying to endear you to Shia's employment and girlfriend problems, the meaningless destruction and mayhem does have a measure of entertainment value.
'I am the enemy of Decepticons and body hair, and I intend to remove both with lasers!' said Rosie.
Audience Reviews for Transformers: Dark of the Moon
So here we are again and right from the start with the intro of Shockwave I was disappointed yet not particularly surprised. Moving on we are introduced to a talking LaserBeak and a small troll like Autobot called Brains! oh my heart sinks and we haven't even begun.
OK well on the plus side there is some nice humour in this new installment from various characters that did make me smile. Turturro as always is quality with his snappy dialog where as Malkovich adds an impressive little performance I didn't really see coming, small but sweet. Ken Jeong is an uprising star in my books and his performances have all been good so far, in his short role here he doesn't disappoint with a cracking little show. Unfortunately we still have to sit through the annoying screaming and twitching of LaBeouf whose participation in these films has damaged his credibility big time.
As for new entry Rosie Huntington-Whiteley...well I've not seen a more horrifically bad performance in sometime, the girl is beautiful, she can pout like no ones business and I'm sure she models well but acting is clearly a step too far and should never be tried again. Its actually fitting she's in this film as to be honest this glitzy overblown mess fits her pretty princess attitude perfectly. Shots of Whiteley up against super cars? check, anyone notice she's still wearing her posh high heels during the finale showdown!.
Anyone actually asked themselves how a geek like LaBeouf's character somehow manages to get these girls in these films!? talk about fantasy! Basically the inclusion of bling actors such as Gibson pretty much sum up the whole franchise.
The film gains a tad more respect with the continued talents of Weaving and Cullen. Added to the gang are Nimoy and Remar, Nimoy of course being experienced in voicing Gavaltron in the animated and better Transformer movie of 86.
Credit where credits due you must applaud the CGI effects, they are very impressive and look good as they screech around highways with multiple explosions going off around them. It looks faultless and along with Bays pretty direction and fetish of the military, explosions and slow motion against sunsets its a picture for sure. As before we still have the same issue as the previous films where its virtually impossible to tell what the hell is going on when the bots fight. You still can't distinguish between Autobots or Decepticons accept for their eye colour with most Transformer characters just coming across as large shiny whirring clicking statues of CGI metal. The rather long finale highlights this problem by adding massive amounts of building carnage and debris into the mix making it completely impossible to make out what on earth is going on, its just insane!
I still can't stand the recreation of classic designs for the new film. The new creations they come up with for new Transformers are terrible and why do all Decepticons look like monsters, insects or wild animals? did I even see a 'Predator' type Decepticon with dreads at one point?
The film is overly long and HUGELY cliched (every cliche in the book). Much of the film feels like a music video or adverts for super cars as Bay tries to evoke emotion but fails miserably by adding rock music over sequences of supposed trauma and horror, plus the whole thing is sooo God Bless America.
There are also so many poor sequences with questions such as how did Sam kill Starscream exactly? what was that gauntlet thing he had? how did the Sam and the others manage to get out of the skyscraper that was practically destroyed and virtually at a 90 degree angle? they just walked out of the doors it seems with no worries? Where does Optimus and the main Autobots vanish too for most of the finale battle? and who was that crappy balding professor looking Autobot with the British accent that got executed!!? just faceless characters for killing...poor film making.
People say this is the better of the trilogy, I can't see it. Its a bit darker as we see people killed in this film plus Optimus being brutal at the very end but for me this is just as bad as the previous two making it hard to try and decide which is the better film, is there a better film?
(Can't believe Optimus lets Cybertron get destroyed!! as if!)

After the huge disappointment that was "Revenge of the Fallen," I felt myself losing faith in the Transformers universe, however, I am pleased to say that "Dark of the Moon" is an improvement. 50 years ago when Neil Armstrong landed on the moon, he was the first to discover the alien race. The ship that was found on the moon contained the planets leader: Sentinal Prime. This fake backstory opened the world a bit more and left room to expand the story. As our heroes are once again running for their lives, we find ourselves doing something that both of the previous films failed, displaying real emotion. There are many deaths presented here, and through each and every death, no matter how big or little, you care for every one. Yes, the dumb humor is as bad as ever, but this film seems to care a little more as well. This film may not live up to the original in terms of fun and witty action, but this film has all the emotion and storytelling that the first two failed upon. "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" is awesome summer entertainment!

This movie never had a chance with critics. The franchise had an awful start there's no doubt about it and will forever be a CGI action orgy, but DotM actually makes an effort with a coherent sensible story and character intrigue.
Transformers 3 isn't as dumb as its predecessors and definitely boasters enough of a spectacle to be worth every bang of your buck. The story's not as simple and shallow as skeptics claim, with enough twists and turns in the first 1/3 to keep the viewers interested. (but then predictably stumbles into an action-orgy as things draw to an end)
It's nowhere near being a masterpiece, there are some glaring issues with the dialogue/script that needed tightening and quite a few plot holes that weren't addressed. (Why not nuke the city? Where was the entire US army?) but I can forgive a lot of this because many also ignored the issues with Cameron's cliche filled world of "Avatar"
The biggest highlight of this movie is the sheer entertainment value. The visuals are absolutely astounding to the point where I was having a hard time processing the volume of amusement that was being handed to me.
For an alien invasion, action flick, that started with a little boy/frat boy demographic; Transformers 3 exceeds expectations. It's a great watch if you give it a chance rather than letting the first 2 films sour expectations.
Super Reviewer
I've never written a troll review before, but Transformers: Dark of the Moon warrants one. This movie is shit. If you liked it, you have no taste in movies. It's 155 minutes of boring fight scenes stitched together with a illogical, laughably bad story that integrates Cybertron into historical events. Every actor is underused and their acting is so atrocious (how is Frances McDormand in this?), I actually missed Megan Fox. $200 million that could have gone to solve world hunger completely wasted.

Ask a Question
Singing Brides
I was looking at blkbutterfly's blog and she had the question to sing or not to sing.
I was immediately drawn to this wuestion because I sang at my wedding and the response was wonderful. I sang "Atlast" and what was wonderful was that I had a keyboardist, organist, saxophonists, drummer and base guitarists all playing, so the sound was wonderful. I sing at so many different events it just seemed the right thing to do. Now the entire bridal party had no idea nor did the hubby. My poor mom was out done. She usually is quite composed and refined she was a mess. My daughters were in shock because I started singing from the room I was in and no one knew. I enjoyed each minute. My hubby cried like a newborn baby and my poor groomsmen broke down and I mean funeral style!!! His bestman was wiping tears from his face then had to stop and wipe his own tears. His dad sobbed. I was like do I sound that bad???? I have gotten so many complements on the surprise and invited to sing at other events. The moment was wonderful. Are there any other WBC brides who are planning on singing or did sing at there wedding, |

Wedding Day Drama
I knew it was inevitable!!
Ok well as we all know nothing we work so hard for or plan goes the way we want it to unless we do it!!! Well let's begin
To begin with I want to go to te rehearsal!!! Well of all eople to be late it was me!!!! Not by choice but I had some major issues to handle that everyone knew and undertood so it wasn't an issue, they just decded to eat before rehearsal so we pushed it back an hour!! Ok we as in the bridesmaids and I were suppose to go decorate the hall but me being me!!! Everything was almost done the night before all they had to do was finish putting napkins on the tables and menu cards and put CD's together..... turns out only one bridesmaid was there but I had a decorating dream team!!! My back drop at the church and the hall were done by my partner who has her own business but we team up from time to time for large functions so that I didn't have to do. She and her husband and my coordinator and my sister and I went hard in the paint!!! They actually put me out of the building because I had done so much so quick they told me to go to bed. I couldn't do that so I went home and printed thank you notes for the bridal party to add to the table. (Last minute detail). Well guess what with all my efficincy I forgot to orint the programs out!!! Oh well I didn't really care it sudenly wasn't important. It was storming all day long!! I mean rain for hours, your was muddy, wet streets slick!!! I went into over drrive. All the plans to take pictures before the ceremony................. nope. The Groomsmen got to take theres but the bridesmaids had to get dressed at the church so we didn't take ours until afterwards. Oh well..... didn't care........ I had an awesome photographer well I had two they were boyfriend and girlfriend so it was cool to see them work amazing!!!! Anywho.... while running around in the rain it didn't make sense to go get my hair done because it was storming so I took care of last minute stuff like... no one picked up the clear plates from the store, I got it!! No one picked up the groomsmens socks (my coordinator had them) No one canelled the hotels because we decided to gt married at te church!!!! (I did it). No one remembered to pick up the deviled eggs (thanks mommy)....... and of course it was raining!!! Oh and no one picked up the chocolate fountain...........bridezilla woke up!!! Well after about two drinks of a wonderful drink called crown and coke, I was ok so around 2:30 I started getting ready you will not believe this. While I'm in the shower I hear everyone in the house clapping and screaming so I'm wondering whats the deal. After all that damn rain all day long!!! It stopped and the sun was beaming just 2 hours before we're on the way to the church!! Well got dressed and my friend who was a bridesmaid and my hairdresser was on point. I got my hair and makeup done at the sametime and was done in 30 minutes!!!! I was at the church almost 45 minutes early!!! We started on time and when i say on time people were still trying to come into the church but got turned around to go in the side door because I had started. My pastor handed us $100 at the alter and said to everyone he had a deal with his wife that if I started on time he'd give me $100 just because I would be the first one he has seen in 20 years on Pastoring. I had the simplest fastest wedding you every wanted to see. Only two songs. The entire bridal party marched in as one unit to one song it was tight!!! I sang for my daughters to enter and I walked in while I was singing to my FH. I sang Atlast and the tears were flowing. I mean everyone was crying!!! But me I was all smiles and I enjoyed every minute!!! Well at the reception there was a wreck so the DJ was late getting to the hall so we beat him there so guess what!!!! NO DJ!!!! Well after all the drama over the DJ he arrives with a pissed off bride but I was cool somebody put a drink in my hand and I was good!!! Without any further problems the party started and lasted until 3am and it was a blast all night long!!! |

NEWS RELEASE Public Communications Division Department of Customer Services
City & County of Honolulu 523-4385 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEJune 4, 2002 HAWAII KAI SATELLITE CITY HALL TO OPEN LATER THIS YEAR
The City will open its 11th satellite city hall in Hawaii Kai in late September, bringing a full range of City services to the residents of East Honolulu. "The 53,000 residents of East Honolulu have waited a long time for a storefront satellite." Mayor Jeremy Harris said. "In just a few months, we will replace the mobile satellite bus that visits Hawaii Kai three times a week with a permanent office open Tuesdays through Saturdays." "Hawaii Kai is a busy commercial center on Saturdays with people coming from all over East Honolulu," the Mayor added. "We decided to open this new satellite on Saturdays so people can do their business with the City at the same time they're shopping in Hawaii Kai." The new satellite city hall will be located behind Roy's Restaurant in the Hawaii Kai Corporate Plaza at the corner of Kalanianaole Highway and Keahole Street. Situated in the first floor of the Corporate Plaza with a courtyard waiting area, the new satellites be open Tuesday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The 1,800 square foot office will have four customer service counters where customers can handle a full-range of motor vehicle transactions. Additional City services will include: picnic and camping permits, bus passes, spay/neuter certificates, disabled parking permits, loading zone permits, fireworks permits, and licenses for dogs, bicycles and mopeds. East Honolulu residents will also have access to City and State job information, register to vote and pay their water and property tax bills. Mayor Harris thanked Councilmembers Duke Bainum and John Henry Felix for their help in restoring the funding in the FY 2003 operating budget to operate this new satellite. Long-time satellite manager Elizabeth Lee will become the manager of the new facility. Her staff are also experienced satellite employees who live in the East Honolulu community. The build-out of the office space at the Hawaii Kai Corporate Plaza will be handled by MJ Construction Company, the low bidder. Work is scheduled to begin in mid-June and be completed by mid-September this year. The project cost is estimated at $196,900. -30- |

Pueblo city councilmembers voted 4-3 to pass an ordinance aimed at vacant and rental properties. The ordinance does not include owner-occupied properties.
After two hours of public comment Monday night, the council voted to pass an adaptation of the international property maintenance code. People against the ordinance say the code isn't much different than current laws and that it does little about funding or enforcing the new law. Those for the ordinance say something has to be done about blighted properties around the city and this ordinance gives the city the power to do so.

My name is Greg Schuh, as some of you know. I live a few blocks from here on Highway 35. Id like to briefly address the diesel issue in regard to excessive fumes in residential areas.
A few weeks after George W. Bush was sworn in in 2002, the fuel industry started blending biodiesel, which is a soy-petroleum combination. I immediately was affected and frequently had to head for the hills. The Mayo Clinic diagnosed me with multiple chemical sensitivities, and Winona Health tagged me with a chronic case of sirus otitus media, which means ear-plugging from soot-diesel power plant emission and yes, blowing silica from multiple sources.
Soon I also became allergic to many foods containing soy, cottonseed oil, corn syrup, peanut oil, and even meat from animals fed soy in their diets!
As more than 1,500 diesel trucks, 300 rail locomotives, and an assortment of river diesel tows a day ply by my home, it became unlivable there and I cant horizontalize - go to bed much (I average 4 hours). The house now serves as a storage shed which I can visit only a couple hours a day. As of April 29, when the frac sand trucks were added to the fray, I began a nomadic lifestyle. Unable to work on anything there but to pack coolers, wash, a brief loving of my cat, and gather what else I need till I get back. Thats why my artwork came to a standstill.
As I have proposed a few weeks ago at a meeting at Alma, let the conveyance of the frac sand industries needs be fueled by the product they purvey, i.e., natural gas. To the transportation folks out there, lets get future trucks on the roads that pass through sensitive residential communities to burn cleaner natural gas instead of the dirty and expensive filter changing diesel they now use!
In the interim, encourage the refiners in Chicago, East Tulsa and elsewhere to remove more sulfur dioxide, nitric oxide and other harmful compounds that assault our health!
Petition politicians and industry leaders to:
1. Fast track the use of natural gas for transportation even though Detroit and other truck producers may have to upsize their engines a bit.
2. Filter used water better at mine sites.
3. Require land reclamation completely after mining smaller areas to settle airborne sand.
4. And most importantly, at the wellhead to always frac rock formations that lie far below the water table reserves (as most do already); frac rock formations that are capped under impervious anticlines (or domes) or impervious strata.
Lets get it right from the beginning!
Done correctly, the gas industry can more economically replace or modify dirty coal burning generating facilities that spew harmful pollutants in the air. If the coal industry wants to show us truly clean electrical generation, let them, but its far cheaper (up to 6 times) to build gas plants from scratch than build for coal.
From the Leicht Press, Winona the Beautiful 1906, size and numbers may be impressive, but they are no criterion for happiness or comfort when applied to a city beyond a given point. A greater population often means more smoke, more grime, more corruption, squalor and slums.
Im looking to move to the north shore of Alaska before I die.
Off the record, Im offering my home for $200,000 to any enterprise (like a museum, art store or cafe) that might have a use for easy access with one of the best views in the world of the Mighty Mississippi - any less, its going to sit and sit and sit till I die.
Nothing we can do is going to stop progress, so lets protest shoddy, hasty decision-making to boot.

With Gordon, Vasquez and Jack on the roster Rivers would be getting 5 minutes a game and they wanted to develop him. Whether it's a trade demand or a legit injury, moving Jack suggests the FO was expecting Gordon to be playing right now.

(Yunlin) 2011 Yunlin International Puppet Festival
Taiwan Traditional Puppets
Named one of this year's best winter trips, Taiwan's High-Speed Rail began its operation in 2007, zipping across Taiwan's valleys, plains, and Central Mountain Range foothills from Taipei south to Kaohsiung which serves as a gateway to the tropical Dapeng Bay National Scenic Area, Kenting National Park and Maolin National Scenic Area, home to four of Taiwan's aboriginal groups – Rukai, Paiwan Bunun and Tsou.
With the establishment of the high-speed rail, an easy day trip can be made on a roundtrip western high-speed rail loop from Taipei and back, giving you enough time to discover Taiwan's fascinating splendors and sample all kinds of authentic Taiwan dishes at the city's famous night markets and restaurants. Also, the neighborhood surrounding HSR Hsinchu Station has been chosen to host the 2013 Taiwan Lantern Festival from February 23 to March 10, 2013. There will be thousands of animated and traditional artistic lanterns illuminating the night skies of Hsinchu.

Support for Parents of Special Needs ChildrenParents of children with disabilities are often devastated when they learn that their children are not learning or functioning at the expected level. According to the Center for the Improvement of Child Caring, 12 to 15 percent of all children have disabilities or other special needs. Parents are not alone in the journey caring for a child with special needs. A child may be identified by child find or referred by a school professional. Although this process may be routine for school or medical personnel, it is far from routine for parents. In fact, this can be a traumatic experience. Common responses to learning that the child has a disability or has special needs are anger, confusion, guilt, or frustration. It is acceptable to show emotions. Some parents cry. Others hold their feelings inside. It is important to deal with the information in a positive way. It is important for parents to understand that they are not alone in this situation. There are other parents that deal with the same situation. Another parent or support group can help with questions or even give needed support. If groups are not available, a family member, member of clergy, or friend may be able to help with support. Once the shock of learning about the disability has passed, the next step would be to learn all that you can about the disability. If the disability affects the learning of the child, special education services may be appropriate at school. An evaluation is needed to assess all areas related to the disability. Most parents want the best for their children. Take the time to communicate information about the disability to the child. Success in life is possible even when a disability is diagnosed. Interventions make it possible to lead a prosperous life. Life at home should not change. The child may have a disability, but he or she is still a member of the family. Challenge the child to be as independent as possible. Most importantly, provide support and lots of love. The Center for the Improvement of Child Caring, http://www.ciccparenting.org/pdf/Data_and_Under-Detection.ppt

5 Man On FirePosted: 25/08/2012Brilliant game with a fantastic story. As mentioned in the title this game borrows a lot from the movie Man On fire which is no bad thing. Quality graphics too with sweet gun play. Loved it, recommend it.
5 Played COD all my lifePosted: 06/01/2011Now I don't want to compare this with COD but everybody else does so I might as well. I love COD games but I have to say since playing this game through I have loved every minute, sure COD looks nice and plays well but there is something about this game that just makes it feel 'right'. I think because it is just straight up fun and has a lot of variety in the levels. The sound is also simply brilliant and much much better than any COD game I have played, it also has a really gritty realistic feel and look to it all. Give this game a chance and you will not be dissapointed, I'm gutted I waited so long just because IGN gave it a low score..... ignore the reviews and give it a go, it is a really decent fps. Great game in my opinion.
5 What is everybody moaning about just sthu....Posted: 11/11/2010This game is no way as bad as some people are making it out to be by giving it one star and trying to stand out. Like many others I have massively enjoyed the previous COD's. Black Op's has many great new additions to the multiplayer and it has an unbeilivable amount of stats etc even down to hit markers you have fired where they landed, and where you died etc on the last 30 maps, combat training, loads of new game mode, cool weapons (bored of the same old modern guns) still cant beat the sound of an old rifle with the pull back animation and empty clip flyng out. It has a full video editor which makes great use of capturing your favourite online moments (screen shots & vids) to share with the community which if your anything like me you will love. Considering the online servie is FREE I cant complain about a game dropping out 5% of the time. The game includes a huge zombie mode an amazing single player which has the best story so far from any COD game and also incuded is a nice arcade zombie mode top down shooter which is great fun, its basically four games in one. Well worth the money, once you progress a little bit into multiplayer, you will be hooked and be able to open up so much stuff. Just give it time, the graphics in my opinion are great. As for little things like some small glitches, sounds etc which I am not aware of by the way, thats what updates and patches are for. Brilliant game.
5 (Demo Only) - Probably the best football game ever made.Posted: 15/09/2010I downloaded this from the american PSN and was again blown away, I played Fifa 10 loads and althought this feels weird at first after being so used to fifa 10 you soon get used to it and apprieciate the gameplay. The ball now feels very detached from the players, which is a good thing. Players are alot more individual, for example iniesta for Barca can pick out a 40 yard pass onto Messi's foot but try the same with someone not so skilled and it will probably go out for a throw. Its very realistic all round, the refs now have varying degrees of strictness which helps games flow. You can now view individual highlights after each game and save them onto your relpay gallery to view whenever you feel like it, also adding your own custom sound track from your hard drive is a nice touch. Another little thing I like (probably because i'm a gaming nerd) is the way after a tackle/shot etc the camera will follow that player and give stats likes, distance travelled etc. Again making it feel like a live game. The gameplay is fantastic how all the tussles for possesion and players diving all over the place make it look amazing, there is so much animation going on here. for example I was playing earlier and had a shot with messi which crashed off of the bar and david villa just launched himself at it to try and put the rebound in, it came off of his shoulder and went out, there will be so many different kind of random goals in this game which I think is great, last minute deflected post and in type goals. I'll shut up now, anyway if you liked fifa 10 and world cup S.A then get this as it combines both and adds even more on top. Brilliant game.
DJ Hero (Includes Turntable Controller) PlayStation3 1 New from £24.10 Free delivery Available used from £29.99
5 Best interactive music game on the marketPosted: 23/04/2010Really good fun, actually feels like you got skills on the turntable. You get right into the brilliant mixes of which there are plent and all of them are really well made. Try it, its good fun and great for having people round and all having a go.
Madcatz Officially Licensed Modern Warfare 2 PS3 Controller Faceplate (Exclusive) PlayStation3 1 New from £4.97 Free delivery
2 Don't buy it just because it's cheap.Posted: 06/04/2010Ok so this is nice looking and feels comfortable in the hand, clips on very nicely and is good value I suppose. The one major problem is once it has clipped onto the pad the buttons are harder to get to due to the raised plastic. It's not much but once you have played with the same pad for ages it just feels alien and becomes off putting, like me you will probably play one game of MW2 with it on then un-clip it and throw it out of the school bus window tied to a piece of string like Napolean Dynamite. To sum up, looks nice, is cheap, feels smooth but weird and annoying after a while.
5 Very different but very impressive.Posted: 17/02/2010Based on the demo - This game is very refreshing and new, it makes you feel so involved and as if you were actually there. At one point after having a fight with some guy in the seedy motel room I needed to get my inhaler from my pocket as my character was struggling to breath, I couldnt remember which pocket it was in and I actually started to panick incase I couldnt find it in time. That kind of involvement is hard to find nowadays in games and I cant remember a game making me feel so much part of the action as Heavy Rain does. I have to mention the graphics are some of if not the best I have ever seen, also the voice overs probably even top Uncharted 2 and thats not an easy task. It reminded me alot of the movie Seven which is in no way a bad thing. I think it will be interesting talking to friends who have also got this game to see how they played it and what decisions they made and how it affected their game to compare the outcomes. I'm bored of the same old FPS where wave after wave of enemies run at me, I needed something new where I could turn the lights off, get pulled in by the story and become part of the game and now I think I have found the game to do that. Stunning in every way.
5 Why did I wait so long to buy this game?......Posted: 03/02/2010..... It was probably because I thought, here we go again, another comic book / game which is going to be a flop. I can honestly say I couldnt of been any further away from the truth. This game is epic, everything about it just seaps class. I had no idea how much depth this game had and how dark and disturbing it is at times. I love planning attacks from above and then pulling them off with stylish perfection, it's moments like that when you feel as though you are the dark night himself and those moments wouldn't look out of place in a Batman movie. Not being a hardcore Batman fan it's also a nice touch how they provide you will all the charcters backgrounds and stats. Amazing graphics, gameplay, story sound, extras etc etc etc. GOTY? Probably.
5 Really good gamePosted: 07/01/2010I purchased this game when it first came out after reading some very promising reviews about it. I had never played a prince a persia game before (well briefly on xbox live) it was an old classic version but I found this game really enjoyable, great gameplay and unique but amazing graphics. It really is a satisfying and lovely all round game. Also with the film just around the corner it is well worth picking up for a bargain 10 pound to get a bit of back story and familiarise with everything. Great game
5 Best PS3 game yet?........Posted: 16/10/2009...... I would say it has to come close, I have only been playing for around 3 hours and I am up to chapter 6. I cant even put into words how impressed am I with this game, just when I think it cant get any better, something will happen I will sit back and just think wow. I know alot of people always say this about games but this is really like sitting through an amazing film which you get to control. The graphics are so clear, beautiful and life-like, the story is epic and it is just all round brilliant, if I could give 10 stars then I probably would. I love how the game begins, dont worry I am not going to give anything away. I cant wait to finish work and get back on it, you could easily sit down and play this game non stop start to finish, not because it is a short game (which it isn't at all) but because it just keeps you so hooked and seamlesley links levels from one to the next. It is and will be a classic. And to answer my question again, I have had all the best PS3 games to date and I can safely say that this is the best so far. Buy this game, if you dont have a PS3 yet then buy one if only to get this game and if you are unlucky enough to own a XBOX then sell it and get this. Brilliant brilliant brilliant.

Voices from the Little Bighorn
Museum of the Rockies, Hager Auditorium
Presenter: Tim Lehman
The Battle of the Little Big Horn, popularly known as Custer's Last Stand, stands as an iconic episode in the history of the American West. Yet many aspects of the battle are poorly understood. Using records from popular culture--newspaper accounts, films, paintings, and poems--Lehman explores the traditional myth of Custer's Last Stand and offers a fresh interpretation using recent battlefield archaeology and a new appreciation of Indian accounts. Blending popular culture and traditional history, the presentation shows how myth and history blend in understanding our stories of the American West.

I was sitting in the front row, next to Rodrigo from Brazil, on Monday night, as our class made an effort to complete the exercise of modelling fruit in NURBS, before we moved on to making a chair in Polygons. I felt a little more confident, after practicing my Primitive Man Online tutorial last weekend, and I looked forward to shading and texturing my wonky apple. But before I got to that moment there was a NURB banana skin, waiting for me to slip on.

Bacon. What else can you do with it? |
Our obsession with this meat candy made from the flesh of pigs never wanes. In fact, it seems the more bacon we have, the more we want.
Take for example baconlube. The brainchild of J&D's Foods, the lube, which ironically is vegan and sells for $11.99, created a media frenzy when it was launched about a year ago.
