U.S. House Armed Services Committee Ranking Member Howard P. "Buck" McKeon today released the following statement calling attention to military families as the nation honors its heroes this Veteran's Day:
"As America honors its military heroes from all wars this Veteran's Day, we must also pay homage to the families and friends who support our brave warriors from here at home.
"The tragic events at Fort Hood last week reminded us that military families stoically maintain the light of freedom at home-while their loved ones serve in hostile environments around the globe-with little expected in return.
"Americans in uniform during World War II picked up the pieces after the disaster at Pearl Harbor and went on to defeat tyranny in Europe and the Pacific. That victory was made possible by the 'Arsenal of Democracy,' created by Americans who stepped in to fill the manufacturing gaps left behind and propelled millions of tons of equipment and provisions to the frontlines.
"On Monday, the world celebrated the twentieth anniversary of the collapse of the Berlin Wall-an event that signaled the end of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. Millions of men and women served during this decades-old conflict-many stationed in outposts in direct opposition to Communist oppression. Those protecting the home front carried their share of burdens and responsibilities as well, working to propel an economic engine that would ultimately bankrupt the Soviet socialist experiment.
"From Korea to Vietnam, from Grenada to Bosnia, and from Iraq to Afghanistan, America's veterans have honorably carried the torch of freedom to foreign shores. Their selfless acts in situations where a majority of people would run away have sustained and secured our freedoms.
"This Veteran's Day-as we honor our heroes both past and present-let us also take a moment to remember the military families who have, since the Revolutionary War, supported our military personnel. Let us recommit ourselves to keeping faith with those who, with strength and courage, give away their husbands, wives, sons, daughters, fathers, and mothers to wear this nation's cloth and defend our soil from all who intend to cause Americans harm. Let us not only remember and honor those in the fight, but those who wait with great patience for their return."

HP Flexible Capacity—put business agility ahead of capital outlays
by Ken Rief, Technology Services leader for flexible computing
The big question businesses face in cloud computing is: public or private? The big question we asked ourselves was: how do we give our customers all the advantages of public cloud services while letting them retain the control and security of a private cloud?
Public clouds give you instant capacity. You only pay for what you use, and if your needs decline, you can reduce capacity and expense. You don't have to own anything—it's usually an OPEX. Someone else—the service provider—acquires, provisions, and manages the actual infrastructure. But, because the service is provided by an external provider, you lose control. Security is in someone else's hands, and you may not be able to demonstrate the compliance you need. Private clouds put the infrastructure in your datacenter, so you know where your data is. But you have to acquire, deploy, and manage. And you have to foresee your needs and provision ahead of demand, or you're right back where you were before cloud computing.
The answer we came up with to span those worlds is HP Flexible Capacity. Flexible Capacity (FC) is available as part of HP Datacenter Care—our support service that treats your datacenter like the critical corporate asset it is rather than just a collection of devices.
With FC, we acquire the hardware and software you need—ahead of demand—but we provision and manage it in your datacenter rather than ours. Like a public cloud, we meter your usage and bill you each month only for what you actually use. You can scale up and down instantly. Like external services, the cost is an OPEX, so it conserves your capital for the initiatives your business needs to beat the competition.
HP Flexible Capacity is a new way to consume IT, and as more businesses discover the advantages, it's really catching on. We have expanded the program several times since we introduced it. First, we increased the scope to include HP software in addition to hardware and system software. Now we are expanding it to include multi-vendor systems. If your datacenter is full of Dell or IBM servers, for example, we'll take them off your hands, but leave them right on your floor and deliver them back to you a sip at a time. And you only pay for what you sip.
There are other features to HP Datacenter Care designed to simplify and personalize support and make it more proactive. It gives you one number to call and one throat to choke for everything in your datacenter. And there's enhanced call handling, so when you do call, you get fast access to the right experts. Combine that with the instant capacity, managed services, and ability to match expenditures to usage of Flexible Capacity, and you can see why a lot of our customers are rethinking the way they consume IT. It puts business agility ahead of capital outlays and infrastructure management.
My colleague Dave Shore and I will be providing more details on HP Flexible Capacity at HP Discover 2014 in Las Vegas in June. It's session BB3750 (Wednesday 12:00 to 1:00). If you have your own questions, come on by to learn more.
Ken Rief has been with HP for 15 years. He is an Americas EG Technology Services leader who's team is responsible for several HP offerings designed to help our customers run their IT environments more effectively while reducing the risk to their operations.

Abu Dhabi wins 'Best Arab City' Award
Saneou Al Hadath, an Arabic-language business magazine, has named the UAE capital as the region's best city to live in.
March 17, 2009 2:06 by Dana El Baltaji
Abu Dhabi is the 'Best Arab City' to live in for the second year in a row, according to Saneou Al Hadath, one of the region's leading Arabic-language business magazines. The magazine's annual 'Best Arab City' report, published in its March edition, bases its analysis on numerous international studies and indicators. The survey ranks 19 cities throughout the Middle East in six categories: business; health; security and human rights; communication and transportation; entertainment and culture; and education.
According to the study, Dubai is the second best Arab city to live in.
"The indicators for the study are based on the quality of life, the health care services, the business communities in the each of the 19 cities," explains Yazan Neme, a journalist at Saneou Al Hadath. "The GCC's cities outperformed other cities, due to their rapid development and the property boom in the region."
Consequently, the Gulf's capitals made the survey's top 10 list; the top five are Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Manama, Doha and Kuwait City. Lagging behind are Riyadh in ninth place and Jeddah in eleventh.
The highest ranked cities in the Levant and North Africa are Amman (sixth) and Beirut (tenth), and Tunis (sixth) and Casablanca (fourteenth) respectively.
Winners in the individual categories are: Dubai for culture and entertainment; Abu Dhabi and Dubai for communication and transportation; Tunis for security and human rights; Abu Dhabi for health; Kuwait City for business; and Doha and Amman for education.
"Given that the indicators we used are based on numbers published in 2008, well before corporations in the region publicized their fourth quarter losses, we're keen on seeing which of the 19 cities will sink or swim in 2009," Neme added.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/rs...superbowl.afterm.ap/index.html?section=si_nfl 'Properly officiated' League defends the officiating in Super Bowl XL Posted: Tuesday February 7, 2006 7:20PM; Updated: Tuesday February 7, 2006 7:20PM The NFL defended the officiating in the Super Bowl, and Joe Montana defended himself. Two days after the Steelers beat the Seahawks 21-10 in the NFL title game, the league said Tuesday that the game was "properly officiated." "Including, as in most NFL games, some tight plays that produced disagreement about the calls made by the officials," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said in a statement. Meanwhile, three-time Super Bowl MVP Montana denied reports he had asked for $100,000 to appear with other past MVPs at pre-game ceremonies. He left Detroit on Friday, and returned home to attend his sons' weekend basketball games. "I had told them both [sons] that I'd be there for their games and that we'd watch the Super Bowl together," Montana said in an interview with ESPN. Later, Montana added, "The Super Bowl is important to a lot of people but, to me, it was more important that I was home with my boys." Two-time MVP Terry Bradshaw and Miami's Jake Scott were the only other MVP's who didn't attend. Bradshaw reportedly want to be with his family, and Scott was traveling in Australia. The officiating, though, has been a the major topic of discussion since Sunday night. Right after the game, Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren suggested that a first-quarter offensive interference call on the Seahawks' Darrell Jackson, negating what would have been the game's first touchdown, probably should have been "a no call." Holmgren, a former chairman of the NFL's rule-making competition committee, fueled the debate Monday during a rally for the Seahawks at Qwest Field when he said, "We knew it was going to be tough going up against the Pittsburgh Steelers. I didn't know we were going to have to play the guys in the striped shirts as well." The questionable calls: -- Replays on the offensive interference call showed that Jackson's arms made contact with Pittsburgh's Chris Hope and that they separated afterward. Under the rules, pass interference took place but sometimes the call isn't made. -- The first TD of the game scored on a third-down rollout by Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger late in the first half. Roethlisberger appeared to come down short of the goal line, but it was unclear on replay whether he had gotten the ball to the line before going down. Referee Bill Leavy upheld the call because there was not enough incontrovertible evidence to overturn it. -- Holding call on Sean Locklear in the fourth: Locklear's penalty erased an 18-yard completion from Matt Hasselbeck to Jerramy Stevens to the Pittsburgh 1 that would have put the Seahawks in position to go ahead 17-14 with around 12 minutes left. It was a close call that was difficult to see on replay. -- One call that clearly appeared erroneous came after that penalty, when Hasselbeck threw an interception to Pittsburgh's Ike Taylor, then made the tackle but was called for a block below the waist, giving the Steelers an extra 15 yards. They scored soon afterward on a pass from Antwaan Randle El to Hines Ward. Replays showed Hasselbeck never made contact with the player he was supposed to have hit illegally, instead going straight to Taylor to make the tackle. The Super Bowl crew headed by Leavy was comprised of officials who graded out best at each position during the regular season. The NFL invited all past Super Bowl MVPs, and gave them two first-class plane tickets to Detroit as well as $1,000 in spending money. They also were free to accept appearance fees at other events associated with the Super Bowl. Asked during the interview if an appearance fee kept him away from the game, Montana said, "Not at all. When I was playing football I missed my two girls. They're in college now and they're gone. These boys are at the age right now at 16 and 13 that I want to be around. I don't want to miss them before they're gone."
What a crock of s*** - The NFL spokesman actually said that the playoffs and Super Bowl were extremely well officiated?
Like I've said before it was "officiated properly" in the same way a cop can pull over minorities for doing 36 in a 35 MPH zone. The cop is just following the rules and and can argue he was breaking the law. And the courts can say it was proper and the cop was doing his job. But, in reality people go 5 MPH over the speed limit all the time and never get ticketed. So if all they're doing is pulling over minorities and ticketing them then there is a problem. And the same situation is going on in the NFL except instead of targeting minorities they target a team and use every and any opportunity to penalize them and unfortunately since they don't acknowledge the problem I only see it getting worse.

I think they said that they were flying out on a thursday, doing a show from cleveland on friday, and staying over for Jimmy's show on saturday. If it was me I would expect sirius to pay for the flight both ways, hotel and food thursday and friday nights. Any expenses for saturday O&A should pick up themselves.
As far as their "protection" goes, I can see both sides of the argument so why not split it down the middle.
I like how they always say that they don't want to compare themselves to Howard but then they turn around and do just that. The reason Howard gets all the shit he does is that his agent negotiated a better deal. It's not our fault that your agent sucks and you didn't get more money or perks. If you weren't happy with the deal you got, you didn't have to sign it.
And before you start calling me a Howard troll let me say that I like O&A and Jimmy and haven't listened to Howard for over 15 years. But this constant complaining about how they are treated is just unbearable.
And yes I understand that when I don't like the show, I can change the channel. Unfortunately I am doing that more and more and it makes me sad.

How'd I get into gaming. Go figure I was only three years old. It was past the NES era and even the SNES had been out for sometime now. But my family was poor and I knew little about anything games. I was only freakin' three years old afterall.
My dad could finally afford an NES so he bought one from a pawn shop one day. He got SUper MArio Bros. 1 ,2 and 3, Duck Hunt, the first Lolo, and Kirby's Adventure. My dad wanted to play SMB3 first, so he showed my brother how to do it. I was blown away watching my dad teach my brother how to play. All I could say after that was gimme, gimme, gimme, I want a turn. I will never forget how amazing SMB3 seemed to me. So I played and played. After that I went on to our other games and beat those ones up too.
I started out with an NES, but thats not where it stopped. My dad later bought an SNES. By then me and my two brothers were heavy into games and begged our mother to buy us an N64. I will never forget how awesome Super MArio 64 was and the Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. After that we begged my mother for a gamecube. By now I was playing video games the most and could beat my brothers hands down at anything.
I got a job. I started to buy my own games and systems from there. My brothers had fallen out of the video game scene and I was the kid no one wanted to play video games with. I bought myself a Wii and soon after an XBox360, future plans are with a PS3 as well. On top of th I haved owned every Nintendo portable system... besides a Virtual Boy.
I don't do online multiplayer, nor do I play games for Multiplayer. I play them for the one player experiences. But if you wanted to come to my house and play some Left4Dead, I wouldn't turn you down. I just much prefer the face to face method of playing multiplayer. I ain't a competitive person so your gamer score doesn't mean a dime to me.
But here is my gamer tag widget anyways, cause I think its really cute!

Its been such a long time, I think I should start ranting... again.
on 09.22.2010
Having finally decided to get a life, I fell out of the Dtoid blogs for a while. Well and also I ran out of things to say. It doesn't take long for I am not very interesting. Anywho, I return for now to write a blog about something new I have to say, yipee.
Here be it:
While browsing the usual video game sites to look for interesting news, I came across an article about Mass Effect 2's new downloadable content. The article was rather upsetting, since I believed it was a jackass move on Bioware's part. The content was the new Lair of the Shadow Broken mission, where you help Liara(a hot alien chick for those of you who don't know) find and take out the Shadow Broker.
I was happy and angry, excited and mother flippin upset. The Shadow Broker had been mentioned in both games, and he was mentioned as being a big deal. The man creature thingy has a lot to do with the crap going on in the Mass Effect Universe. So this is likely going to be awesome DLC. Let me get to the point though, it is a very big deal. So the fact that I have to pay extra money to get something that is a part of the games main plot, is rather ridiculous.
Buying DLC for any game has never crossed my mind until now. It is just extra stuff that doesn't really matter but offers you more. I have never spent Microsoft points on extra content, well not including songs for Rockband. Nor have a ever felt the need or like it mattered. Not until now, and I ain't happy about it.
So I did buy the new Mass Effect DLC and played through it, and it made me even more unhappy because of how great it is! Its epic hugeness is something no Mass Effect player should have to miss, so they shouldn't have to pay extra for it!
I would call it a clever yet evil business decision on Bioware's part. They make more money off of something Mass Effect fans feel compelled to buy because of its importance. Fuck, they got my money and I never planed on buying DLC for Mass Effect.
In conclusion... Fuck.
Red Dead Redemption Review
on 07.15.2010
Red Dead Redemption has to be one of the most badass games I have ever played. It wowed me with it's "oh my god" moments time and time again. From when I got my newly beautifull horse stolen, to when I got mauled by a cougar, and to when I got a buffalo rifle and was confused as to why racoons would dissapear after I shoot them. It is a buffalo rifle, what the fuck was I expecting?
I have to say, I really enjoyed this games story, it really felt meaningfull. It wasn't slapped on just to give you a reason to shoot something. It felt right, and it felt good. Grand Theft Auto in the Old West, except, it was way better then any GTA game I've played. I've always wanted to play a game set in the Old West, and this game executes the setting perfectly.
This game may be for a mature audience, but I think it is more then just being at the right age to play. It ain't one of those games where you should keep the kiddies away from solely because of it's violence. Its a game to keep away from the kiddies, cause it is highly unlikely they would take enjoyment or understanding from the story itself. Marston, the main character, deals with some pretty heavy shit afterall. You spend most of the game being tugged around by assholes who want your help, but don't like returning favors. You can't blame Marston for being a very jaded man, for the shit he says is the pathetic truth that is still the reality of today. With guns and money, there will be no freedom. The most sad, but true thing any man will ever say.
Moving on to the gameplay itself, the part of the game that will make you smile. You may have no choice on what to say during charater interactions through cutscenes, you can still choose to be what you want otherwise. You can be an outlaw, or a lawman through your actions. You can rob people, even rob banks apparently, but the outlaw side of the spectrum was one I did not tread on. I tried, but for some odd reason, unlike in Mass Effect and Fallout 3, I just didn't feel good being bad. I gave the ladies rides to town, I helped the guys get their carts back, and I didn't kill no man if I didn't have to. I was the lasso type of man, a real good guy. I enjoyed it, but I wonder what the other side is like? I guess I will find out when I decide to give the game an other trip through.
As you help or hurt people, you gain a reputation based off that. And you gain fame aswell, no mater your choices. The more you do, the more people will reconize you, and ask for help. If you are a good guy, people will even give you gifts. Or if it is a lady of the church, you'll be asked for donations, and so forth. I did find it pretty cool when everyone on the street would start saying "Hey, its that Marston, how ya doin!", or other things of the sort. Being good, felt rather good.
Red Dead gives you a large amount of things to do, non story related. There are mini games to be played for money, like poker, blackjack, some five finger fillet, and a few others. My personal favorite being Liars Dice, I rock at the game, boy is that shit a whole lotta fun! You can also partake in a few jobs, like nightwatch and horse breaking.
My favorite side missions are what are called Challenges. It is an assortment of little things to do that test you on just how good you are at this game. It involves doing something in particular with your gun, killing a certain amount of animals and skinning them, and even picking flowers, isn't Marston just such a lovely sweethear? The one I found coolest of all though, was the treasure hunter challenges. You get a map, and by using the power of your brain, you must locate the treasure. That was alot of fun, and it was kinda sad once I found them all. I wanted it to go forever.
Like in many games, you can outfit Marston with different styles, but you have to earn it. In total, there is 15 outfits, which you acquire by completing certain tasks in game. I really enjoyed this too, although I never ending up changing his clothes, I just really liked his normal outfit. However, you can't ignore the awesomeness that is dress up the ugly bounty hunter.
In all this greatness, there is still faults, and it mostly came with the horsey controls for me. It was frustrating at first, and it made me angry. But, eventually I came across that "hallelujah" moment and got it down. I over all did well with the controls for Marston himself, but the cover system felt a little clumsy. I would try to break away from a rock, but would just end up running a circle around it and getting shoot to death... Yeah, burn. The game's duel system is what really got me(Yes, duel system, old western style exactly how you picture it, very awesome). The explaination on how the controls work went by a little to fast. I only caught half of it, and it ended up making no sense. I obviously understood it enough though, cause I never lost. However, after each duel, I would stare at the TV with amazement, thinking, how the fuck did I do that?
The game is overall a masterpiece when it comes to looks. Standing on the egde of a cliff, overlooking a lake, and seeing the far off horizon, is remarkable. I would stand on cliffs looking onward for minutes at a time, just enjoying the incredible look of this game. It really captures the look of the West, far better then I could ever imagine. But the feel, was also captured amazingly. Charaters at times are somewhat cliched, but within reason based off the setting. Voice acting is great, but that was no suprise from Rockstar. That goes along with the charater animations, which looked very natural, especially the running in cowboy boots. There is not a doubt in my mind it would look that ridiculous, and that is no joke.
Something that really caught my attention was the animals in this game. There is a large vareity of different varmin, and there existence can be more threatening to you then any man. Nothing says "Old West" like being jumped by two cougars.... or three bears.... or seven wolves. The animal population is high, as it would be, and offers hysterical results. Don't shoot one bear expecting you're out of the ball park. They'll come at you, at come at you, and come at you, and then you'll be out of bullets. And don't be suprised to be ravaged by a wild boar while you are trying to protect yourself from those growling grizzlies.
A few last notes on this game before I wrap it up. I did have some technical issues with the game. More then once it chugged so badly, I had to turn of my 360. I know there is a lot loaded at once in this game, but it is still unexceptable. If you so choose to go for 100% in this game, it will take you some time. It is a long lived game, with a lot going on in the world. This is a must play for any gamer. It sets the bar for anyone looking to make a western game, and it sets it really high. I enjoyed this game to the fullest, and I can tell you, it won't be very long before I get the uncontrolable urge to play it again.
fuck you

Violence in Video Games
on 07.09.2010
Yes, I have a thing or two to say about violence in video games. But it might not be what you think. I'm not against pointless violence, for it can be fun. Nor am I against an unrealistic (or realistic at that) amount of violence. It is all in good fun, and as my brother would always say, "Its better I beat the shit of Donkey Kong with Link then go to the zoo and do it in person.". Well, thats not even close to what he said, but it would be funny if he had.
Violence in video games never influenced my life negatively. My brothers and I were horrific violent holligans without them. None of our real life violece was fueled by cartoon violence. Anyways, I'm not gonna get into that whole debate about liking D&D makes you a devil worshiper or playing video games makes you uncontrollably violent. I'm here to put to rest that Nintendo games, mostly Mario, are childish.
So, if you were asked who are some of the most violent video game characters, you might respond with Kratos or Marcus. Now, these are some terribly violent men, especially Kratos. There is no levity in that mans situation, and there sure as hell is a lot of blood. Now I've never played a God of War game, but I know enough about it to understand how brutal it is. However, I can name a Nintendo character waaay more brutal. He burns, freezes, crushes, slices, tosses, and cooks his enemeis. Yes I said cook, as in throws them in a pot of boiling water and adds a dash of salt and pepper. He'll shoot lazers at your face, and scream so loud your entire body explodes. And last, but most horrific of all, he'll swallow your entire body in one gulp.
oh my fucking god
He is the cutest Nintendo character of all. Kirby. The thing that makes Kirby extremely horrible is the fact he does it all with a smile. He doesn't even stop to think about the shit he is doing. It is that cute, happy, smiley, and cheerful way he goes about his life that makes him far more desturbing then Kratos ever will be. He has to be one of the most awful of awful. When he comes to town, you are fucked.
Mario frankly is no better. He also has the shock and awe factor that a man like Marcus couldn't top. Oh yeah Marcus, so you chainsaw guys in half? Big fucking deal, watch me crush this guy to death with my own weight. It has to be one of the worst ways to die. It makes me cringe thinking about that awfullness.
Marcus is the kind of stand up guy who never leaves a man behind. It is a admirable quality, and a great one at that. However, Mario is better then that. He will do anything to save that princes, even if it means killing his own trusty sidekick over, and over, and over again. If he needs that extra boost on his jump, he'll leave you in midair, falling to your death. Who the fuck knows how far down that is, but it'll fucking hurt when you get there.
he is not a team player, he just wants to go get laid, and you'll be the one to die for it
So you can throw the idea that Nintendo games are childish, out the window. Because the charaters in these games were doing some of the most awful, violent things before the rest of the badasses.

E3 continued: 3DS
on 07.01.2010
I remember first hearing about this squeaky bastard not to long ago. I was on that gaming new site N4G, sifting through all the comments of people opinions. Simply put, everyone sounded either angry, or annoyed. There was a lot of "wtf is this shit Nintendo, you gave us the Wii, now this?". But hey, haters gonna hate right, even though there is no reason to judge something you know nothing about.
So the 3DS, I wish I had a lot to say about, but I have not personally experienced the machine hands on. The idea of this briliant 3D without glasses handheld, sounds wonderfull, but until I see it, it isn't yet wonderfull. However, I have seen videos of people seeing the 3DS for the first time, and suffice to say, jaws were on the floor. It was a video of speechless people, and the people who were talking were stuttering as they did so. It is easy enough to say, it is prolly amazing. But, it still saddens me that I won't know its greatness till I buy the damn thing.
The thing about showing the 3DS off at E3, is that it is not really showing us much. Well, those of us who saw live streaming footage at least. We sit looking at our computers as Nintendo's CEO shows off something we can't see. What we get instead is a cute trailer featuring some Nintendo big wigs, and a list of third party companies making games on this thing. Oh yeah, and a trailer for Kid Icarus. But I guess you can't complain, theres just no proper way to convey what the system can do without holding it in your hands. Which I find really interesting. Usually video game developers can at least show you what they're product can do. But in this case, all they could do was tell us. All this does for me, is well, make me twice as excited to buy a 3DS.
It moves from 3D to 2D seemlessly, it can take 3D pictures, and already has a list of games longer then your shlong. Interestingly enough, most of these games are ports from other systems. But I guess there is nothing wrong with reliving great games in a new format. I was just hoping to see a new Metal Gear game, and not a port of an old one, or more then just a ported Zelda game. However, playing those games in 3D still sounds amazing.
I am looking forward to getting my hand on the 3DS, the depth it can give us with games will be amazing. 3D is the future of gaming, but I think Nintendo is the only one who has it right... Which makes you think, if Nintendo has the technoligy to give a 3D with no glasses, what else could they have waiting in the wings for the next few years? I bet they are already beyond 3D with glasses, they are just gonna hold out on us till we ask for something more.
It was obvious all along, this was just the begining

Random drawings(includes cute dead bunnies)and video game related!
on 06.30.2010
Here it is, although it is the aftermath of a bunny killing, and not a current bunny killing spree.
I have yet to decide the fate of this cute couple. They could be evil, or maybe theyre just cute, too.
Not even sure what the fuck this is suppose to be. But I like it!
Just a different take on Pikachu. Sorry about the somewhat bluriness it seems to have.
So this is what a water type version of Ponyta would look like... I can't think of a clever name for the girl, maybe some help?
Thanks for taking a very short amount of time in your life to look at me random non-sense. But I just thought of something, I like drawing, I would like to do it more often. But sometimes I just get well, drawers block, can we say? So if anyone around here has a suggestion of something I can draw for them, go for it. Tell me what, and I'll put my cute take on it.

E3 continued:Intendo
on 06.29.2010
There has been a larger delay then I thought, between writing this blog, and the last one about Microsoft, then I would have liked. But you know, those weekend destractions. Roleplaying with the guys(finally, we rarely play, excuse giving, mother fuckers), reading a Stephen King book I am really fucking into, trying to complete RDR 100%, and drawing cute guys killing cuter bunnies. But now finally, the moment you may not even care about, my thoughts on Nintendo's E3 press conference.
Lets just start with the awesome new Zelda title. The gameplay would have looked great, if technical issues weren't so frigin' huge. It was sad to see, however, apparently, it was way better on the show floor. The games demo presented no technical difficulties, which is great to hear.
Now, in all honesty, I can't say much about the new Zelda game. I have yet to decide if it is actually good or not. Simple fact is, it is way to early to decide anything about that game. So far, the game seems really cool, but it hasn't showed me much of anything special. Yes it is a motion control Zelda game that imitates your movements exactly, but that is not my main concern. We were told this Zelda would break the typical Zelda formula. You know, the overworlding a little, then dungeoning a lot, and repeat. But, as obvious, the E3 showing revealed nothing about this. Or anything of the story at that. I will admit, Zelda blew my mind, but I want it to be blasted, and I hope in the near future, it'll do so.
Okay, so here after that came an assembly of great, well mostly. I don't believe that Wii Party is a "brigde" game, I've never played the mother fucker so I don't know. The idea of having games which take non-gamers, deeper into a more typical gaming experience, is a very nice one though. I'm just not sure Wii Party is one of those games.
Onward, there was Just Dance 2. Which I don't care about really. Dancing video games have never had much appeal to me. Also we got a trailer for the new Goldeneye game, or rather remake of Goldeneye. I can't say I care, replacing Brosnan with the new guy I'm not a fan of. At that, I don't see the point in remaking a game like Goldeneye, it was good the way it was you bastards. Anywho next, Mario Sports Mix, it failed to give me goosebumps, so I know my mind is neutral on the subject. However, if the game uses Wii Motion plus, which I'm not sure of, it is very likely I'll buy the bastard. There is a chance that Mario Sports Mix can be fun. Heres hoping its nothing like Mario and Sonic and the Olympic games... I blame Sonic for those failures.
We got to see more gameplay footage of Metroid Other M, which is still looking beyond fantastic. The fact that it is hiting the stores August 31st, made me squeal like a school girl. Donkey Kong Country Returns, looks fun, and brings back that nostalga, however, will it still be fresh and innovative enough for me to actually buy it? I like new spins on old franchises, Nintendo is great at that. But so far, I haven't seen enough, new spin, on ol' DK, to care that much. But lets not doubt the fact, I still buy the game... Curse you Nintendo.
So the game that made me wet myself was undoubtly Kibry's Epic Yarn. Now that is what I call a new spin on something old. Its not just the way the game looks, which its charmingly fantastic by the way, it is the way it plays. I haven't gotten my hands on the bitch, but I can assure anyone, this isn't your Nightmare in Dreamland or Amazing Mirror. This is a beast never seen before. This is a beast, that'll rock your socks.
We did get to see a few DS titles aswell. Now I can't say I cared that much, because sadly, I never played the first Golden Sun game. I had only heard about its greatness at the time, and was unable to afford it along with other games I cared about. Don't hate me world, for I already hate myself.
The last game I care to mention, or can remember at that, is Mickey's something or other(Epic Mickey actually). I've only read a few things about people's opinion of this thing, and all I saw were dazziling insults. For me, however, I am somewhat intrigued by this game. Interested at that. You effect the world and characters around you by either creating, or destroying. To me, I believe, there is possible potential in this title. But since it is Disney, who knows what the fuck it really all means. I do believe they only exist to take our money and hand us crap.
So for today, I'm actaully done, this blog is gonna be to long, and I fear of boring people. I'll write about that 3DS, which I'm in love with, sometime some.... Hopefully.

Hey The Total Diva, yep girly it definitely increases your chances. So many people enter so the more your name appears, the higher your chances of getting chosen. Good luck! Xoxo MOD MOD Does it really affect your entry if you enter more than 1 time? Say i enter 350 times....does it really matter? Lynae P.

@monicaisfabuluz Fox Island is really beautiful, but luckily there is a bridge to cross to get there although there is Vashon Island which you have to take a ferry to get across!

Power Scalable Radio Receiver Design Based on Signal and Interference Condition

Abstract: A low power adaptive digital baseband architecture is presented for a low-IF receiver of IEEE 802.15.4-2006. The digital section's sampling frequency and bit width are used as knobs to reduce the power under favorable signal and interference scenarios, thus recovering the design margins introduced to handle the worst case conditions. We show that in a 0.13 μm CMOS technology, for an adaptive digital baseband section of the receiver, power saving can be up to 85% (0.49mW against 3.3mW) in favorable interference and signal conditions. The proposed concepts in the design are tested using a receiver test setup where the design is hosted on a FPGA.

Remedies for itching mosquito bites!This summer in Minnesota has been on the cool side with little rain. That means we didn't fight mosquitoes - until this past week when we were camping. The pesky mosquitoes were out for blood - OURS! I keep a bottle of water and Eucalyptus Essential Oil to help repel the bugs. Since bugs have not been a problem I forgot to pack any natural repellent. I had to use what we packed to stop the itching. I've added other tips - some I've tried others I haven't tried yet. What we had on our camping trip: Lemon juice (worked great) Toothpaste (I used Toms of Maine Peppermint) Honey (raw) (worked as long we were inside, the mosquitoes seemed to bite more with the honey on.) Milk Ice (works) Tea bags (black, green and chamomile) (works) The lemon juice worked the best, then ice and tea bags. Sounds like iced tea with a splash of lemon. Now for some remedies I've read about. I don't know how well these work. If you have tried them let us know how they worked for you. Apply these to bite on skin (one remedy at a time) Epsom salt (2 tbls in 1 cup cold water) Baking soda and water paste Fresh cut garlic clove Fresh cut onion Liquid ammonia (for new bites, not raw open bites!) Nail polish (for new bites, not raw open bites!) Lime juice Salt & Water paste Vinegar - white or apple cider (for new bites, not raw open bites!) Vicks Vaporub Tums Tablets (crush and add a few drops of water) Aspirin (crush then add a few drops of water Aloe Vera Deodorant Tea tree oil Lavender oil Oil of oregano Bar soap pieces (rub dry bar soap on bites) Banana peel (inside of peel) Common Plantain (roll common plantain leaves between fingers to extract juice, or chew on leaves a little bit, then rub the juicy leaf over mosquito bite. Calamine lotion Listerine mouthwash or generic equivalent Scotch tape Bleach Internal help: Vitamin C (Do not take synthetic forms of vitamin C. Whole Food Vitamins ) A few days before going on a camping trip, drink 1 tablespoon of cider vinegar three times a day. Continue throughout your outing and you just might return home without a bite. I recently read that people who eat lots of sweets get more mosquito bites. I'm not sure about that. I'll let you know after our next camping trip if our sugar eating friends get more bites! If a remedy doesn't give fast relief, give it another try, sometimes it will take 2 or 3 applications before it works for you. The mosquito bite itch comes from saliva that the mosquito injects into you as it sucks your blood. There are many different species of mosquitoes. You may react to some mosquito bites more than others. I know this is a long list, and I know there are many more remedies to stop mosquito bites from itching. Share your remedies.

Lavigne's Minders Block Her Hopes Of Romance
Teen rocker Avril Lavigne blames her bodyguards for hindering her search for a boyfriend - because they always scare away potential suitors.
The SK8ER BOI star appreciates her minders for their protective worth but gets angry when they unnecessarily stave off the advances of amorous young men, and fears she'll never find romance with the muscle-clad guards surrounding her.
She says, "I don't get out in public much but when I do, guys come over sometimes.
"Most of the time, though, I have bodyguards who push them away from me."

About Jim Noel
My approach to painting is based on feeling the image or subject from the inside. In other words, I try feel my way into the scene, I'm painting, and in essence, be that subject.
Seeing into, as opposed to simply looking at, is an active, demanding process. The more I see, the deeper I go.
The infinite possibilities of color, texture, tone, contrast, movement, present constant challenges. My job is to make something cool out of this chaos.
Like most artists, I am a deeply private person, but the acceptance and enjoyment of my art by other people is really important to me. It is difficult to talk about and write about my work, but I know it's important to reach a wider audience.
To me, painting is a combination of , thinking, feeling, looking, dreaming, all while applying the paint! It feels like time ceases to exist and the ego fades. Art and artist, subject and object, merge. Sometimes it's exhilarating, sometimes exhausting. When a painting comes together and it feels finished,
I am always amazed that I somehow created something new. There are simply no words to describe that.

testing, something weird happened to this topic
Just for the record, LinuxIsFTW in total win is a hacker too.
He got his first 2K wins legitimately(or seems to be legitimately), then 4.4K wins in one day, obviously not legitimately. As of now, the legit total win top player is AzureTW with 5.2K, Skarrface with 4.6K, and stip71 with 4.4K. In the near future, any other players with higher wins than them are probably hackers.
These hackers now tend to make their scores seem to be legit, just a little bit higher than the legit top one, so that if they don't get caught right away, they seem to be legit.
But I caught LinuxIsFTW.
