Frankie Punkintown Smith to be rodeo clown at Pala PBR this weekendThursday, October 4th, 2012 Issue 40, Volume 16.
"Were excited about going to PBR," Smith said. "Its going to be an exciting time." "We" includes Smiths trick horse Turbo, who has traveled with Smith for the past eight years. "I should have named him American Express because I never leave home without him and hes the money maker," Smith said. Smiths nickname has nothing to do with being a punk - he was born and raised in Pumpkintown, South Carolina. The town, which is in the northwest corner of the state and is in the same county as Clemson University, is often called Punkintown. Smith spent eight years in the United States Army. "I found out I was a comedian in the military," he said. "I got caught making fun of my drill sergeant at boot camp, and he forced me to be his comedian." He sought a full-time comedy career after his discharge. "I just kept going. I tell everybody Im now paid for doing what my mama used to whip me for doing," he said. Smiths mama might not whip him too much for his clean comedy. He is a six-time winner of the Christian Country Music Association comedian of the year award, and he was the International Country Gospel Music Association comedian of the decade for the 1990s. "You can not only bring your mama, you can bring your preacher and were not going to offend anybody," Smith said. Smith has been a full-time rodeo clown for the past 15 years. He previously participated in rodeo Bareback Riding. "Tried riding bulls, but I had more desire than I did talent," he said. Smith noted that he has doctors bills to verify his bull riding experience."Im trying to get some of that back," he said of performing as a clown at rodeos. Smith and his family live in Tennessee. He arrived in California in time to perform at the Sept. 28 to 29 Kern County Fair Rodeo in Bakersfield. Of the upcoming PBR at Pala, Smith said, "Its going to be a great venue for us." "Its going to be awesome," Smith said. "Well save the whole seat, but youre only going to need the edge of it." |

I just ordered one, have to wait 3 - 4 months for it :(
Any way, I did quite a bit of research and came up with this one as the best fit for me. Chose it over the Kimber Ultra Carry II.
Anyone with experience with this model? I'd like some input as to break-in period; problems to look for etc.

EA Redwood Shores
TRAITS (member-attributed "LIKES")
Godfather II advises its players to "act like a mobster, but think like a don." Like Electronic Arts' original Godfather, the sequel is a Grand Theft Auto-style open world adventure, in which players can explore a large urban area and take part in violent mafia crime. From a third-person perspective, players engage in gun battles, fistfights, and deadly driving assignments, often as part of larger, overall missions. In Godfather II players also take a leading role in determining those overall missions. In a separate mode of play, a "Don's View" strategy map perspective lays out the whole city, showing the players which competing crime family has control of which criminal enterprises in which areas, and allowing them to plan a strategy for conquest that considers location and profit-boosting monopolies. The goal is to take control of the entire city's organized crime — one mission of violent intimidation at a time.
As their plots cross and overlap, characters and events from the Academy Award-winning film are found in the game, but even more than the original Godfather, the Godfather II game tells its own story, with its own characters and 1960s settings. Players take the role of an up-and-coming mafia don named Dominic Corleone, who is asked by Michael to move from Havana, Cuba, and take the lead of the family business in New York City, replacing the recently deceased Aldo Trapani — the main character in the first Godfather game. As the story progresses, players will also have a chance to do some work in Miami as well. Dominic is as cool as they come, even when he's mercilessly beating a rival to a bloody, broken pulp, with the game's enhanced "Black Hand 2" melee combat system. After all, it's only business.
Alongside the single-player campaign, gamers can go to war against as many as 15 other virtual mobsters online. Multiplayer game modes include standard deathmatches and capture-the-flag styled rounds, as well as more map-specific multiplayer games, such as Firestarter, in which the team that causes the most property value damage wins, or Safecracker, in which teams compete to locate and unlock the most safes, hidden throughout the map. Gamers can bring any member of their single-player crew with them into multiplayer battle, taking the role of any henchmen they've recruited in the solo campaign. Characters retain their campaign skills in multiplayer play, such as hand-to-hand combat, safe-cracking, or demolitions expertise. In turn, points earned from play in multiplayer matches can carry back over into the single-player game, granting characters access to more powerful firearms and skill improvements. ~ T.J.

Unfortunately, there were no reviews when I purchased this shirt. Don't make my mistake. I could have purchased 4 top quality T-shirts that don't shrink and keep their color for the price I paid (plus shipping and taxes) for this see thru, 1-2 sizes smaller than it should be shirt, simply because it has Jimmie Johnson's name on it.

Alyssa Milano's size chart is way off base. I'm not sure why she thinks a size 2x is really more like a large by US standards. I was very excited about getting this shirt for a birthday gift. However, when I took it out of the package I realized immediately that the shirt was NOT a 2x. Very disappointed!

A 17-year-old boy who is accused of holding a high school drama class hostage at gunpoint after a breakup with his girlfriend has been charged with attempted murder, false imprisonment and several weapons violations.
Gregory Dean Wright was arraigned today as an adult in Butte County Superior Court. A judge ordered him held on more than one million dollars bail.
Butte County District Attorney Michael Ramsey says the attempted
murder charge is based on Wright's intention to track down and kill a romantic rival.
According to sheriff's investigators, Wright took about 30 students and a substitute teacher hostage in a band room at Las Plumas High School last Friday.
Investigators say at least two shots were fired into the ceiling before Wright surrendered.

I am an aging man with starving children. I write blogs about video games. My favorite system is the Game Boy. I have three of them in my house; one in the shitter, one by my computer, and one in my pocket.
My aspiration in life is to not die. Runner up is writing and creating random bullshit related to my only hobby, which is games. I guess I read books too. But nobody cares about OLD MAN hobbies like that, so get outta town, GRANDPA!
My favorite game is Ecco the Dolphin. I like to speedrun it because it makes me feel like a big man, except when the credits run, which is where I usually reflect sadly upon the rest of my life. I love dick jokes and farts. Dickfarts.
I want to write for Destructoid some day, but the staff here are too smart to hire me. I need to find a clever way to trick a legitimate enthusiast site to pay me a small amount of money to do something for them or I can never happy.
But even then, I probably still won't be happy.
Such is life.

Let's Drop the Angry Act, Children.
on 07.29.2013
Recently Phil Fish! And Marcus Beer! And an explosion of Twitter insanity!
If you haven't heard about this by now, you haven't visited a game site in the past few days. But basically, Phil Fish said a thing, and a gent by the name of The Annoyed Gamer responded on a Gametrailers program by calling Fish a "doo doo head" a "smelly farty butt" and a "smegma encrusted dick penis from hell" or equivalent insults. The blowback that occurred was essentially Phil Fish hitting the proverbial "Retire" button on his metaphorical mission screen, that mission being the creation of Fez 2, also known as "a game I really hoped didn't have a buttfuckingly irritating map that I had to walk all over for hours again before uninstalling it from my Xbox to make room for Deathsmiles 2."
Phil Fish has developed quite the reputation for being the loveable scamp of the gaming world, the internets darling love child, and a Canadian guy who likes to threaten to murder people and gets really mad because reasons. Personally, I've always been a bit torn with Fish; he is interesting, in the same way professional Starcraft 2 player Idra was interesting; a boorish dick who added some flavor to the world by being unabashed in his super aggressive approach to just about everything, but who I found difficult to really dislike. At the same time, saying that he didn't have it coming would be grossly inaccurate; if you can't take the heat of others criticisms, get out of the fire. Philly Steaks biggest problem is that he simply could not stay away from the ol' Twitter account, and personally, I think he got off on being in the spotlight; no matter how negative the attention was.
All that aside, there are a lot of people who didn't instantly jump on the Fish hate bandwagon, and instead are going after Marcus Beer. And I understand that, too. To have a self-proclaimed "Opinionist" spitting vitriol and baiting attacks seems childish and ridiculous. And it is. But the entire "I'm a mad gamer who is mad" persona is a little ridiculous too, and to get away from Fish and Beer for a moment; just what the heck is up with that anyway?
This is an industry that is current priding itself on growth and the penetration of the mainstream market. Many folks who were gamers in the nineties, and were ridiculed and ostracized for their hobbies are now accepted on a level they never were before. And while some aren't too happy with this, I think it's made life a lot easier for the majority. But it's still an industry that is in serious need of true maturation. The sexist attitudes pervasive in the industry, along with the general shit slinging seen on the internet and abroad do nothing but paint gamers to look like a bunch of neck-bearded manchildren. And as a fat, sometimes neckbearded manchild, even I am embarrassed by the behavior of my ilk a lot of the time, and occasionally, don't want to be identified as a gamer at all. It's like going to a fancy dinner party and trying to have a serious, dignified conversation with hosts while the friend you brought along is taking a shit in the corner and stroking himself to the hosts wifes portrait. It can be really ridiculous sometimes.
But worst is not when the general fans, who come from all walks of life and shouldn't really be expected to behave in a certain lock-step way, act like angry babies, but when members of the media, or those who are trying to represent gaming on a more professional level, stoop to this level of fist flailing and aggression. The second I heard the term Annoyed Gamer, and looked up the mans profile to find he had attempted to sum himself up in a few very concise words which are typical of a certain type these days and were indicative of his "so fuckin' what" rock star attitude which is so wholly celebrated and embraced by people who think that 90's frat humor shit like Maddox is still the be all and end all of social commentary and humor, I knew I wouldn't like a majority of what he had to say. Not just because it was pedantic, self-celebrating, narcissistic, and needlessly angsty, but because, seriously; this shit has been done to death already.
I can honestly say I am guilty of the same kind of crap. As a growing writer, I was once upon a time ago convinced that my talent was in my edginess; my ability for quick wit, which I often used as a fully loaded weapon against anything I remotely disliked. It took a very long time to realize that, regardless of that "cutting" attitude, if I wasn't saying anything of value, or saying it in a concise, well-thought out manner, that it didn't matter how "edgy" I was trying to be. In face, it was more often a detriment, because anyone really intelligent who was reading my work would instantly make the observation that I was using aggressive facade in order to cover up my lack of an argument. And they were right to do so.
It's a problem I still face today, being someone who admittedly is not always completely emotionally "on the level." I get my bad days, and when I decide to write and post on them, it's usually a mistake, and I say something I didn't mean, or exaggerate my point to an extreme level that doesn't truly represent who I am, or what my feelings are. You lot have seen it many times, and I'm sure you remember it. But the bottom line is this; we don't need to dive into the morass of negativity every time we want to make a point, and it is in fact, seldom constructed. So to have a bunch of followers and hangers on trying to emulate the more abrasive personalities out there is in my opinion, damaging to to our image. There are a few craftsmen who can utilize the angry thing well, but they truly are few; and even they misstep from time to time. I'm a big fan of Jim Sterling for example, but my opinions of him have fluctuated over time because they have been colored, essentially, by all the people who want to be just like him. And in doing so, they are a cheap fabrication; they miss the core of what he does so well in his critical analysis, and they lack the general levity he keeps close to his work. They come off as being copycats, and have a general assholian slant to the things they do that make me instantly dislike them.
(The original "Angry Gamer", and ironically, one who is anything but in real life...yet his followers cling to his satirical persona as if it were a truth and try to emulate it every step of their short lived vlogging "careers".)
Gamers are pissed off, and the world knows it, and is sick of hearing it. So adopting monikers like "Angry Joe" or "Annoyed Gamer" or whatever is as redundant as it is uncreative. We don't need anymore gamers on the forefront representing us who exist seemingly solely to stir the shit pot, toss out curse words, and call it a day. We need more intelligent folks getting to the bottom of issues, and getting to the core of the people who create new experiences; even the abrasive ones like Fish where it's just so much SIMPLER to call him a "wanker" and call it dinner.
I've praised Jonathan Holmes in the past precisely for that reason; I remember a time when he admitted disliking Jonathan Blow, or at least feeling put off by him. But his constantly cheery demeanor allowed him to eventually have him on Sup Holmes where he honestly told Blow what his feelings about him were; rather than lashing out and saying "fuck that guy is a dick" he opened a dialogue, and ended up having a very illuminating talk with Jonathan that was able to probe a lot deeper than any Twitter criticism ever would. You can see the same thing happen on a lot of forums; some self-styled angry personality goes after someone else, calls them a fucking idiot, or what have you. When the person reacts calmly, and tries to understand where they are coming from without reacting in turn with anger, the results are impressive; usually, the person comes around and admits they were fired up. And in many cases, the more cordial of the two will instantly have a new ally, who was apparently ready to rip his head off two posts earlier.
You get what you give a lot of the time. Sometimes people need a smack, like a bad dog, and a stern "NO" to help them correct their behavior, but a lot more often, an open ear and a willingness to be polite, and patient will get you a lot further. There are people on Destructoid who I really like regardless of their less than peachy demeanor, and it personally saddens me to see them go on acting the way they do; cold, abrasive, and aggressive, because it isn't netting them anything. It alienates them, and although a few patient folks will see through their overbearing nastiness to the core of who they really are, they will invariably end up making a lot more enemies than friends.
Worst of all, they just look childish for doing it. Just like people such as Marcus Beer, who for all I know may actually be very knowledgable and have some pretty smart stuff to say, actually have points against them for being self-admitted cynics and "grr angry" opinionists. I recently unsubscribed to TotalBiscuit, who I otherwise find to be a STELLAR commentator and content creator, simply because of his constant insistence to stoop down to the lowest common denominator, and get right into the shit with his harshest of critics, calling them "idiots" or making otherwise constantly cynical and anti-social posts. He, too, proudly carries the moniker of "The Cynical Brit", probably tongue in cheek considering what a fucking stereotype it is to be British and cynical, but either way not necessarily helping his image among the people who are just fed up with the constant negativity, ranting, and sneering sarcasm so pervasive in games media today.
I just want to see people who don't NEED to act like children, who aren't mentally incapable of rising above that kind of behavior, fall back on it as a standby because they are otherwise not confident enough in their own ability to say something intelligent without the adamantine walls of "anger" to keep them protected from the general rabble. It's getting old, it's bad for the industry, and it's bad for the individuals themselves. Sure, it will gain them a lot of popularity among similarly vapid manchildren who eat up that kind of College frat boy Tucker Maxian horseshit, but seriously; are those really the kinds of people you want on your side?
I'd personally say "no thanks" to that sorry lot of fickle manbabies and shoot for the stars for a better class of audience. And in turn, if we WANT a better class of audience, we need to have more people out there who act as positive role models. Because these personalities ARE influential, as insane as that may sound, and the more negative icons we have sitting in the spotlight, the more people will find it acceptable to be indecent, overly cynical dickwads who never listen to crticism, and pretend that they fart perfume and shit out diamonds.
The reality is far less pretty than that, and is certainly a lot stinkier.

Quirky News
Bobsledder smashes way out of locked bathroom
US bobsledder Johnny Quinn literally took matters into his own hands after he got locked inside a bathroom at the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia.
Quinn, a push athlete on Team USA's two four-man sled, had no alternative but to smash his way out after the lock in his bathroom got stuck after he had taken a shower.
The former NFL player posted a photo on Twitter of his feat of strength after he had smashed the door down, with the hashtag #SochiJailBreak.
"I was taking a shower and the door got locked/jammed...," Quinn wrote on his Twitter page @JohnnyQuinnUSA.
"With no phone to call for help, I used my bobsled push training to break out."
It was unclear whether Quinn would face disciplinary action or how much a replacement door might cost.

Growing Eggplant
Eggplant, a warm-season crop, is among the easiest veggies to grow. It also ranks among the most beautiful, and the prettiest rarely make it to the supermarket - smooth, glossy globes, teardrops, half-moons or (yes) eggs in pink, green, yellow, white, lavender, violet and multicolors.
- All eggplants thrive in containers, but varieties with smaller fruits look more in proportion. One good choice is 'Baby Bell', also called 'Bambino'. It produces 1-inch oval, dark-purple fruits beginning about 45 days after planting.
- Choose the sunniest site you can find for eggplant. Soil should be fertile, well-drained and rich in organic matter, with a pH of 5.8 to 6.8. Eggplant also needs a lot of calcium, so add lime to the soil before you plant.
- Buy eggplant seedlings at your local nursery; otherwise, start seed indoors at least 8 to 10 weeks before the last expected frost.
- Harden off seedlings, whether homegrown or store-bought, then transplant them to the garden when all danger of frost has passed and the soil temperature has reached 60 degrees F. Add a half-shovelful of compost or well-rotted manure to each hole before you set in the plant.
- Set standard-size varieties 18 to 24 inches apart; compact and dwarf kinds can be a little closer together. Stake tall varieties to keep the fruits off the ground.
- Place a paper collar around each stem to deter cutworms, and add floating row covers or cloches to protect new plants from cold, wind and insects.
- Spray plants with compost tea or fish emulsion three weeks after transplanting and side-dress monthly with a balanced organic liquid fertilizer.
- Give eggplant about an inch of water a week and, once the plants are established and the ground is warm, mulch to retain moisture and deter weeds.
- Pinch back new blossoms about three weeks before the first expected frost. This will channel the plants? energy into maturing existing fruits rather than producing new ones that won't survive the frost.
- Start picking eggplants as soon as they're big enough to use, and keep picking them till the fruits lose their gloss. If they're brown and hard, you've waited too long.
Eggplant is a member of the nightshade family, all of which contain toxic alkaloids. (Potatoes, tomatoes and peppers also belong to this clan.) While all the fruits of the family are perfectly safe, don't eat any other part of the plant.

Is it farther or further?
theobromine the·o·bro·mine (thē'ō-brō'mēn')n. A bitter, colorless alkaloid found in chocolate products and used as a diuretic, vasodilator, and myocardial stimulant.
diuretic drug and major alkaloidal constituent of cocoa. Theobromine is a xanthine alkaloid, a methylxanthine, as are caffeine and theophylline, but it differs from them in having little stimulatory action upon the central nervous system. The stimulant effect of cocoa results from the caffeine that it contains rather than from the theobromine.

Certainly car use is sustainable, given sensible planning of road systems, ongoing car design and driver training. I really could not live without my car. Public transport is inflexible, time consuming and no use at all in rural areas. Secondly, our use of out of town supermarkets plus the sheer weight of a shopping load makes a car essential. John, motorist from Nottinghamshire
We think we are now more dependent on our cars, and more car focused than in 1988.
But do we think this is sustainable?
Today, society and the lives we lead are increasingly organised around the assumption of having access to a car. So much so, 9% of motorists say they never walk.
Nine out of 10 motorists think Britain has become more car-dependent in the last 20 years. Half of us say it's because we're making more journeys, and a third that we're using our cars more for shorter journeys. This is borne out by the facts.
There are many reasons for our increased dependence on cars. Some reflect their greater accessibility and affordability. Some reflect an actual, or perceived, lack of realistic alternatives. And some reflect broader changes in our society.
Take walking as an example. Between the late 1990's and 2006, the average number of journeys made on foot fell by a quarter - from 328 to 249 per year. (There has been a similar decline in cycling, which also fell by a quarter across the same period, from 21 to 16 journeys per year.)
In 2008, 9% of motorists say they never walk. The car may be what people use instead, but the fundamental point is that we're losing the habit of walking. This is the real area for concern - not least because of the implications for our personal well-being and health.
Ask why we're stopping walking and we get into even deeper social changes. Today, fewer children now walk (or cycle) to school, largely as a result of more general fears about their safety, compared with 20 years ago. And, reflecting the health point above, there are now well-known concerns about the rise in obesity amongst children as a result of this.
The growth in out-of-town supermarkets over the last two decades means we now do bigger, less frequent shopping trips further away ... which, in turn, means that it's doubly impractical for us to walk, for instance, distance times volume of shopping.
Effectively, we now need a car to go to the supermarket.
50 years ago it was much easier to live without a car since most of what we needed was within walking distance or easily-reached by public transport.
Now, it's not so easy. Society and the lives we lead are increasingly organised around the car. And that is recognised, pretty much.
A changing picture?
Twenty years of improvements

Federal Reserve Kicks Off Holiday Spree
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Enjoy the holidays, because the Federal Reserve just went on one.
The Fed's policy-making arm decided Wednesday to maintain its pace of economic stimulus and leave the federal funds rate at record-low levels, prompting economists and analysts to say the central bank won't modify its strategy until 2014.
"It's like the ball player who's day-to-day with an injury: the Fed is meeting to meeting, so right now the Fed is trying to catch up on economic releases that were delayed," said Greg McBride, senior financial analyst at Bankrate.com.
A weak September jobs report led a basket of tepid and in-line economic indicators that have emerged since last month's central bank meeting. Adding to the Fed's uncertainty is this month's government shutdown in Washington, which central bankers will only begin to assess in November.
There's growing consensus among economists that the Fed will stall until at least March to announce a taper to asset purchases because of the weak economic data that preceded the government shutdown and the worries of how much Washington's battle frightened investors and consumers. "Fiscal policy is an easy target, because it has indeed hurt growth in 2013 and it will likely hurt growth in 2014 as well," said Steve Blitz, chief economist at ITG Investment Research. Economic stress caused by fiscal policy also includes effects of the sequestration that has dented gross domestic product growth. Interestingly, the Fed chose not to directly acknowledge the government shutdown, but kept the same language from its previous statement that simply said fiscal policy is restraining growth. "I think that's kind of the Fed's polite way of saying, 'Hey, we'll stick to the economics and leave the politics to others,'" said Thomas Tzitzouris, head of fixed income research at Strategas Research Partners. "The fiscal drag point is almost redundant so I think the Fed would be wise also from a political standpoint to say, 'We're just going to observe the data and see what happens.'" With the Fed having until December to assess U.S. data and two critical monthly jobs reports, investors can look to October's 4.9% rise through Wednesday in the S&P 500 as an example of what could happen in November and December if numbers continue to come in-line with Wall Street's expectations. "Where we're left is a bull market that's based on cheap money until we can come up with a new narrative," said Marty Leclerc, chief investment officer at Barrack Yard Advisors. "It seems the Fed will continue to do whatever it takes to keep this asset prosperity going, hoping that real prosperity will follow." The Fed shocked market participants last month when it announced no intention to reduce its monetary stimulus, causing U.S. equity markets to surge, Treasury yields to tumble and the U.S. dollar index to slump. Major simultaneous moves across asset classes suggested that markets were mispriced. Simply, investors were trading assets at prices that assumed the Fed would reduce quantitative easing, which turned out to be incorrect. But caution headed into the final two months of 2013 should remain. Even though analysts forecast the central bank will hold tapering until 2014, they remind investors hurdles will remain. "There is a potential coming up to that December meeting, even if the Fed makes no hint of tapering any time soon, [that] they could incrementally move towards a more hawkish tone and you could get a little bit of noisy trading at the end of the year," said Tzitzouris. With the S&P's rise since the September Fed U-turn, a stream of unimpressive economic numbers and no central bank meeting until December, it looks like investors may have some room to ride markets into the heart of the holiday season. -- Written by Joe Deaux in New York. >Contact by Email.

Eileen Exiner
a/k/a Maxine, Carla, The Grumpy Waitress
and Dear Friend
March 24, 1944-Oct. 12, 2014
Fr. Pat used to joke with John about keeping someone on the payroll to talk with customers from behind the bar. One can only imagine the conversations they're having today. …
It's just that we can't imagine that we won't be having anymore of those conversations with her. Eileen loved to talk – and you were never quite sure what she was going to say.
Her salty wit and wisdom – which personified the phrase "Tell it like it is" and often prompted a response of "Oh, Eileen!" – earned her those various nicknames. But despite that sometimes rough exterior, inside was a genuine and generous woman with a heart of gold.
Although a hard-worker, she loved the beach and would have turned in her tray in a heartbeat for the chance to rank the world's resorts. She loved slot machines, too. Once in Vegas she asked us to order her dessert while she went to the bathroom. John and I were beginning to get concerned that she was gone so long. But eventually she found her way back to us with a bucket of quarters in hand. Yep, she got sidetracked … and might have even forgotten about the restroom, too.
Cruises were a natural draw, and we were blessed to have shared several with Eileen and her mother, Wilma – and once with her sister, Pat, too. Not only do cruises combine beaches and gambling, they offer the opportunity to be on the other side of the table. She was amazed that anyone could smile and repeatedly say, "It would be my pleasure" to multiple diners' unending requests …
Yes, as easily as Eileen could put a child running amuck in the restaurant in his place, she could become a counselor and confidant to a customer – or a friend. Over the past 16 years, she's helped educate many young people who have come through our doors as bus boys and girls. After-shift chats about politics or problematic patrons offered an opportunity to share candid comments with lots of humor.
First, Fr. Pat and a year and six days later, Eileen. The restaurant will never be the same.

Zola to consider future as boss
Gianfranco Zola said he will consider his position as West Ham boss after his side lost a sixth straight match on Saturday, beaten 1-0 at home to Stoke.Zola told BBC Sport: "It is very painful and I would have to think a lot about how the situation stands. "I need to find out what is the problem - and if the problem is me. I will have to think about that overnight. "I don't think it's that the players are not trying. The bottom line is to see whether I can help them or not." Ricardo Fuller.... read more

There is probably nothing wrong. Imagine a world where a "foot" was 12 inches to one person and 11 to another. The only thing common to the two people with yard sticks would be the size of the inch. Their yard sticks placed side to side would be different. There are two gigabytes, two megabytes, and two kilobytes, each meaning something slightly different then its counterpart. It so happens that 2 ^10th power is almost 1000 (it's 1024) and 2 ^20th power is almost 1 million (it's 1,048,576) and 2 ^30th power is almost 1 billion ( it's 1,073,741,824). A kilobyte is 1000 bytes to person counting in decimal and 1024 bytes to a person using the binary representations. The only thing common to the two measurement systems is the size of a byte. Your operating system uses both binary and decimal representations of hard drive space depending on where you look. The hard drive manufacturers use the decimal representation. I've seen people complain that HD manufacturers are using the most beneficial numbers to rate their products, but I don't agree with this. If you use the decimal system you know exactly how many bytes your hard drive will hold without having to think about it. If you use the binary representation, you have to do a calculation to figure the exact number of bytes your hard drive will hold. Lets use the example of an 80 gigabyte hard drive. A typical 80 gig will have 80,048,390,144, but Windows will report that as 74.5GB in some places. If we calculate 80,048,390,144/1,048,576 we get roughly 74.55, (binary) gigabytes. A 160 GB drive would be 160,000,000,000/1,073,741,824 or 149.0116119 (binary) gigabytes. To get the values in (binary) megabytes simply divide by 1,048,576.
