|ESPN.com: AFC West
|[Print without images]
Week 1: Tennessee Titans
Although it's ridiculous to label any season opener a must win, this is probably as close as it gets. The Chiefs face a minefield over the next five games, so they need to take care of business in this one. Prediction: Win
Week 2: at Denver Broncos
The Chiefs haven't beaten the Broncos since Denver was quarterbacked by Tim Tebow. They are 0-4 against Peyton Manning's Broncos, and this doesn't look like the game in which they will bust through. Prediction: Loss
Week 3: at Miami Dolphins
It's not unreasonable to suggest the Chiefs' ability to stay in the playoff hunt hinges on this game. They could get buried if they lose to the Dolphins. Prediction: Win
Week 4: New England Patriots
This would be only the third game Tom Brady has played at Arrowhead Stadium. The joint will be jumping for this Monday night matchup. Prediction: Loss
Week 5: at San Francisco 49ers
A taxing stretch of schedule, a short week and travel to the West Coast are too much for the Chiefs to overcome. Alex Smith will play well but not well enough to beat his former team. Prediction: Loss
Week 7: at San Diego Chargers
The Chiefs are due for a win in San Diego. They haven't brought one home from Qualcomm Stadium since 2007 -- until now. Prediction: Win
Week 8: St. Louis Rams
The Chiefs have won all five of their games against the Rams since the Rams moved to St. Louis. They will continue to own the state of Missouri. Prediction: Win
Week 9: New York Jets
If the Chiefs' schedule has a flat stretch, the Jets are right in the middle of it. It's hard to see them having meaningful games down the stretch if they don't win this one -- but they will. Prediction: Win
Week 10: at Buffalo Bills
Buffalo's Ralph Wilson Stadium had been a haunted house for the Chiefs until they busted through with a victory there this past year. But they won't be able to sustain the momentum. Prediction: Loss
Week 11: Seattle Seahawks
The Chiefs will put up a strong fight in front of a raucous home crowd. But they won't have quite enough to beat the defending Super Bowl champions. Prediction: Loss
Week 12: at Oakland Raiders
Another tough West Coast assignment for the Chiefs, again on a short week. But this time they rise to the challenge. Prediction: Win
Week 13: Denver Broncos
The Broncos can't be looking forward to coming to Arrowhead for a Sunday night game. Again, the Chiefs will make things difficult for one of last year's Super Bowl participants, but they won't quite pull off the victory. Prediction: Loss
Week 14: at Arizona Cardinals
The Chiefs' playoff hopes take a fatal hit in the desert. This loss guarantees the Chiefs won't be making a repeat trip here for the Super Bowl. Prediction: Loss
Week 15: Oakland Raiders
The Chiefs take out their frustrations on the Raiders. In the process, they will get a second straight season sweep of their longtime rivals. Prediction: Win
Week 16: at Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh has been another place where the Chiefs have traditionally found it difficult to win. This game extends a losing streak that goes back to 1986. Prediction: Loss
Week 17: San Diego Chargers
The Chiefs haven't swept a season series from the Chargers since 2003. They get the job done this time against an opponent that will make the playoffs. Prediction: Win
Predicted Record: 8-8Ā

This would take soooooooo long to get all the pieces.
@Sir_JBizzle @Kaze_Memaryu I might have misread, but the way it sounded was the Mario Party - Mario Amiibo was exclusive to that release, though I have a hard time believe it as Kaze says. As far as the rarity of the figures, I imagine some of these will continue to be rare, but others I believe would likely get reprints.
@Kaze_Memaryu Except even the normal Mario Party - Mario amiibo is going to be somewhat rare since it only comes with the MP10 bundle, at least in the US. But still, yea, in 5 years (maybe even 1 year), will most of us care about these things anymore?
lol, eBay is just looking out for their own interests. It is very much in the interests of eBay to draw in auctions like these. They make 10% off the auction plus another 3% minimum from Paypal (albeit, some of that may go to card processing fees). I'm surprised by the post on the one hand since it is such a touchy subject, but on the other hand, I'm really not. My favorite was when eBay was acting so chivalrous when the US was looking at passing Internet tax laws and eBay was opposing them vehemently "in the interest of its users" when the fact of the matter is the law would've been a big blow to eBay itself.
Not sure if you can tell, but I have sort of a love/hate relationship with eBay lol.
@Justaguest I agree. The commentary is painful.
I agree with this, the set date/time for preorders is a great idea. The only problem with that (which online retailers may or may not be aware of) is that when you do that, your site gets hammered at that one time. I mean, even the random release times caused some sites to struggle to bear the load. But I agree that's about the only option. Some other options would've been to provide a "preorder ticket" via Club Nintendo to allow purchases direct from Nintendo's store. I don't agree the limit should be 1 though, I think 2 is probably a more fair limit as many people (myself included) like to buy one to open and one to keep sealed. I don't think it's the people buying 2 that caused the issue, it's the people buying 20 or more.
@Chaozrush21 I think the ability to side-by-side the game with TV was pretty cool, but other than that, it's pretty much standard Xbox.
I was actually really pleased with the final NA rewards. I was only a little surprised they didn't offer the Zelda LBW OST over here, but seriously, they had some good stuff.
Yea, I wasn't even aware you could use items like that in the game. I don't even understand how they were floating by just kicking a shell....
That commentary was painful.....and I'm pretty tolerant of annoying YouTube commentators.
Where was this posted at?
I suddenly feel very inadequate at this game lol I just go with the button mash technique.
This is why I had backups to my backups on preorders.
...../quickly moves to the next article.
I guess Nintendo is learning to explain why people should upgrade their systems.....lesson learned from Wii U?
@mineralrich This is what I pictured
@mineralrich Wow?! Did he attack you? Why should we beware of them?
@ThomasBW84 Of course #1 is an exaggeration, though I believe in the other two points.
1) When will you guys be opening up "ScalperLife.com"? I think enough stories are posted about scalping to warrant its own site.
2) This isn't news anymore, people have been scalping for years and there have been reported stories about this in particular. Given that almost every story I've seen posted was by you, I'm assuming this is a personal vendetta.
3) By posting this, you are only making the problem worse. Now those would-be scalpers who were unaware of the value of the system now know to sell theirs.
@Olmectron @Chisel @nostalgianinja So, why does this make them despicable/disgusting/etc people? It's pretty hard to gauge a person's character based on a single action, regardless of whether you agree with it or not. That's very judgmental.
Just curious, why is this such a big announcement? It's just an app that lets you draw, right? Basically Miiverse 2.0?
Wow, now I think this is a great idea. It really adds value to Streetpass.
Is the reward just recognition?
Hmm, I haven't got one of those emails yet for my preorder. I wonder if I got mine in so early I missed this.
lol, I love it. Now, the question is, do I wait for the inevitable price drop on them or grab them out the gate?
I missed out on the preorders, so I ended up paying $50 for a preorder on eBay (something I normally would never do, I'm cheap lol). In hindsight, the extra $37 was worth it for me to not have to miss church and drive 1 1/2 hours to go buy a toy.
For those who have bought one of these Wii titles, do they offer any additional features over the original release, like save states or a better interface, etc? Just wondering if I should pick this up now while it's cheap even though I already have the disc version.
It's the risk of being a collector. No market is 100% stable. Since things have started going digital, I've been clearing out my own game collection of anything other than what I want to keep personally. I still have my steelbook Metroid Prime Trilogy and I will likely keep it. Keep in mind though, the prices will likely rebound eventually, as the announcement probably caused a shockwave of sellers throwing theirs on ebay which flooded the market, though they may not achieve the all-time highs again.
We'll see how it turns out. I feel like I had issues with it before as well, but it's been a while lol
@BakaKnight Yep, I was one of them. Initially they said they would restock, but I think most people assumed it was going to be digital only. The mention about the restocks of limited exclusive items in NA came a few days later....after I'd spent the majority of my coins on Smash Bros Posters Here's hoping the restocked items I want are fairly cheap.
I gotta say that, overall, Club Nintendo has been a good benefit. We (myself included) complain about the lack of rewards and unfair currency, but honestly, it's a free service add-on that was not a part of the initial purchase price. So what you get is better than nothing. Many of us (again, I include myself here) just seem to have an entitlement mentality with things relating to Ninty, as if our fanship earns us the right to anything we want. I'm sure it's not that cut and dry, but I feel like the fan-rage over Amiibo, and the Zelda MM limited items partially comes from this mentality as well. Yea, scalpers contributed to the problem, but regardless of the cause, there's no sense in the amount of anxiety and anger I've seen (and experienced lol) over some material items.
One last short story - I was walking down the street mulling over having missed another opportunity at getting a Zelda MM New 3DS preordered when I saw a homeless man heating himself over a steam vent. So I'm thinking, my main concern right now is getting a game system and this guy's main concern is not freezing to death. Really puts things into perspective and caused me to pause and thank God for what I do have.
Hmmm, maybe this is what NA will get in the restock!
Anybody wanna trade my code for their Majora Mask New 3DS System Preorder slot? lol
According to the banner, more rewards are coming in February.
Yea, this game was an excellent entry in the series, I thought.
Man, I can't believe these scalpers buying up video games 25 years ago just to sell them and make a profit today. (/this is a joke/)
@rjejr You're right, that is a strange viewpoint, but also one that I never made. On your other point though, when you say most people who shop, do you mean for anything? Milk, eggs? I'm specifically talking about items where there's a chance that it may be difficult to find. I assume most users of this site are well versed enough to recognize these kinds of items. Looking at Skylanders, Disney Infinity or any other product similar to Amiibo would tell you that there would be a large chance that they may be difficult to find.
But I don't want to get bogged down on that because that really wasn't the point of my posts. My point was that it was not appropriate how people are so outraged over (and hateful toward) these particular users who have chosen to take what was given to them and resell it. In fact, I imagine that if these users had been given the New 3DS for free (won in a contest or whatever), then they chose to resell it, people would probably have less of a problem with it.
@FritzFrapp But why? Again, completely separating this situation from people who go clear off store shelves with the intent of reselling, what did they do wrong? How have the hindered anyone else?
On a separate note, I've seen a lot of people complain about the Amiibo situation, but it's difficult to feel too bad about that when preorders in the USA for almost all the Amiibo (except Rosalina) lasted for weeks. That's weeks that people had an opportunity to reserve the figure(s) they wanted. But suddenly we found out there was a shortage, and yes resellers did step in, and now there's people all over the Internet cursing anyone selling an Amiibo above retail price because they didn't get their hands on what they wanted. When there's something I want, regardless of whether I anticipate a shortage or not, I will preorder it if I can. In a situation where preordering is an option, if I don't preorder and I miss out on it, I don't get mad at resellers because it's not really their fault, it's poor planning on my behalf.
Now, having said that, in situations where preording is not an option and literally the only reason you were unable to obtain one was because of resellers.
But regardless of any situation, it's unfair to demonize people because of one action. That's judging the totality of a person's character because they bought a toy and sold it at a higher price to people who were willing to pay for it.
All I could think was 'hater' when reading this article and proceeding comments....It bothers me when I see people dogging others because of what they chose to do with what is rightfully their own. Let me be clear that I'm not condoning people who go and clear shelves of merchandise specifically to resell, but in this case, these people were just chosen at random; they were not taking anyone's spot here. Also, if I was in a tough spot and this opportunity fell into my lap, I would without a doubt flip that system. I think the problem is everyone visualizes these guys as the greedy little villains whose existence revolves around stealing what we want to own right now and forcing us to pay a marked up price. But the reality in this situation is, they're not hurting anyone: when the system is released on its normal date, what these particular folks are doing will not stop anyone from buying a system at normal retail price on release date. If there were not people out there willing to pay the premium to have their system a little early, this market wouldn't exist. So cut these folks some slack and stop reducing people to the lowest possible status in your mind because of a single action, especially one that isn't even wrong.
EDIT: and I want to add this: Who looks worse here, people who took advantage of an opportunity that was fairly presented to them or people who trash talk them and suggest they be killed (albeit, tongue in cheek...I hope) for these actions?
@StarDust4Ever Why'd you have to speak that? lol

Military Personnel:
Considerations Related to Extending Demonstration Project on Servicemembers' Employment Rights Claims
GAO-08-229T: Published: Oct 31, 2007. Publicly Released: Oct 31, 2007.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-9095
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA) protects the employment and reemployment rights of federal and nonfederal employees who leave their employment to perform military or other uniformed service. Under a demonstration project from February 8, 2005, through September 30, 2007, and subsequently extended through November 16, 2007, the Department of Labor (DOL) and the Office of Special Counsel (OSC) share responsibility for receiving and investigating USERRA claims and seeking corrective action for federal employees. In July 2007, GAO reported on its review of the operation of the demonstration project through September 2006. This testimony describes the findings of our work and actions taken to address our recommendations. In response to the request from Congress, GAO also presents views on (1) factors to consider in deciding whether to extend the demonstration project and the merits of conducting a follow-up review and (2) options available if the demonstration is not extended. In preparing this statement, GAO interviewed officials from DOL and OSC to update actions taken on recommendations from our July 2007 report and developments since we conducted that review.
Under the demonstration project, OSC receives and investigates claims for federal employees whose social security numbers end in odd numbers; DOL investigates claims for individuals whose social security numbers end in even numbers. Among GAO's findings were the following: DOL and OSC use two different models to investigate federal USERRA claims, with DOL using a nationwide network and OSC using a centralized approach, mainly within its headquarters. Since the demonstration project began, both DOL and OSC officials have said that cooperation and communication increased between the two agencies concerning USERRA claims, raising awareness of the issues related to servicemembers who are federal employees. DOL did not consistently notify claimants concerning the right to have their claims referred to OSC for further investigation or to bring their claims directly to the Merit Systems Protection Board if DOL did not resolve their claims. DOL had no internal process to routinely review investigators' determinations before claimants were notified of them. Data limitations at both agencies made claim outcome data unreliable. DOL officials agreed with GAO's findings and recommendations and are taking actions to address the recommendations. In July 2007, DOL issued guidance concerning case closing procedures, including standard language to ensure that claimants (federal and nonfederal) are apprised of their rights,and began conducting mandatory training on the guidance in August 2007. In addition, according to DOL officials, beginning in January 2008, all claims are to be reviewed before the closure letter is sent to the claimant. These are positive steps and it will be important for DOL to follow through with these and other actions. If the demonstration project were to be extended, it would be important that clear objectives be set. Legislation creating the current demonstration project was not specific in terms of the objectives to be achieved. Clear project objectives would also facilitate a follow-on evaluation. In this regard, GAO's July 2007 report provides baseline data that could inform this evaluation. Given adequate time and resources, an evaluation of the extended demonstration project could be designed and tailored to provide information to inform congressional decision making. GAO also presents potential benefits and limitations associated with options available if the demonstration project is not extended.

Some personnel have been accused of corruption
Some have been part of the wing for over a decade
Care being taken to ensure that morale is not affected
BANGALORE: A common complaint against the Lokayukta police — the police wing involved in booking cases of corruption against government officials — is that some of the personnel have been in the department for a long time and have developed vested interests in booking cases.
In order to address the problem, the Lokayukta police have started the process of replacing personnel who have been in the wing for a long time, especially those against whom complaints have been made. Of the over 100 constables attached to the Lokayukta, nearly 50 per cent have been there for years.
Complaints received
"Staying for a long time in the department might lead to developing vested interests in taking action against government officials. I have been receiving complaints against some of them," said Additional Director-General of Police (Lokayukta) Rupak Kumar Dutta.
There is a norm in the Police Department that personnel should not be allowed to work beyond five years in the same place.
In the Lokayukta police there are many at the constabulary level who have been working in the same place for over a decade. Some of them have been accused of accepting bribes.
Mr. Dutta said the process was on to identify police constables whose services can be used.
The Lokayukta Superintendents of Police have been given the task of identifying the personnel and getting clearance from the district police chiefs concerned, before making a formal request to the Director-General and Inspector-General of Police.
"It's a sensitive task," Mr. Dutta said. Care is being taken to ensure that the ongoing process does not affect the morale of the force, which might hinder the work of booking and investigating corruption cases. "I have to retain those working well and also bring in fresh faces who can learn the ways of working in this specialised wing, which is different from others."
Being done in phases
Mr. Dutta said the work of overhauling the constabulary is being carried out in phases. To start with action is being taken to replace those who have been accused of corruption.
Similarly, action is being against those of the rank of police inspectors and above who have been accused of corruption and leaking information about raids and traps. "A clear message is being sent out that acts of indiscipline will not be glossed over," Mr. Dutta said.

Among all media categories, Internet spending showed by far the largest increase: a jump of 18.9 percent over the previous year.
Marketers continued to aggressively move their advertising dollars online in 2007, according to preliminary numbers released Monday by The Nielsen Company.
Among all media categories, Internet spending showed by far the largest increase: a jump of 18.9 percent over the previous year.
Overall spending for the year grew just 0.6 percent. The softening economy may have played a role, as the U.S. lagged other countries in overall spending. Asia-Pacific reported a 12.1 percent increase, while the EMEA went up nearly 5 percent.
Other U.S. categories that showed an increase in 2007 were national magazines (7.6 percent), national Sunday supplements (4.9 percent) and outdoor (7.2 percent), which continued its five year climb. Newspapers continued their steady decline in the U.S., despite increasing in all other countries measured by Nielsen.
"Clearly advertisers are looking at alternative ways to reach their target audiences," said Jeff King, senior vice president and managing director at Nielsen Monitor Plus. "As a result, new media outlets like the Internet are seeing significant growth at the expense of hard-copy newspapers."
King added that there is likely incremental newspaper ad revenue within the Internet numbers representing online access to print publications.
The findings come in the wake of a dismal newspaper industry ad revenue estimate for full-year 2007. According to the report, combined print and online revenues declined nearly 8 percent in 2007 compared to 2006.
Last month, the Interactive Advertising Bureau and PriceWaterhouseCoopers estimated that digital advertising expenditures passed $21 billion in 2007. Similarly, TNS last week declared that interactive advertising increased nearly 16 percent in 2007, while spending across all media went up a mere 0.2 percent.

The story is so unique, the acting is actually really terrific, and it has an artistic overall feel.
If it seems way over the top and, frankly, totally unbelievable, even for a horror movie, keep in mind that the movie-makers intended it to be that way.
When my friend and I watched it, I enjoyed being able to show him what the premier was like when I was there.

I already had the bread cubes (we cube up and toast all bread heels and rougue "single buns" that nobody seems to be eating, anyway!), would you believe I had barely under 6 cups!!! It was like I was MEANT to make this! I gave my mom some too (my "doubt" teacher!) and she even LOVED it too!
We both give this one 5 stars!

Fiber vs slab rubber carpet pad over hydronic heating
Have experience with either fiber (5/8 ") or slab rubber foam (125 oz., I believe 7/16") carpet pads installed over Thermal Board or hydronic heating? Wool carpet will be installed above the pad. Have heard preferences for both. Is the slab rubber resilient or more cushiony? Is the fiber more cushiony?
You may want to consult this table to look at how much insulation your adding that will be blocking your heat.
We installed tile over our radiant heat on the main floor and carpet with pad on the second floor. We have a main floor master so don't really use the second floor. In addition our floor plan is very open so the heat from the main floor rises and I don't think our upper floor system turns on very much.
In terms of the carpet type I know we didn't choose wool but some sort of synthetic berber. We also installed the type of floor padding that the store said was specifically designed to go over radiant heat. Make sure your store knows that you want it to go over radiant heating and they may be able to look at the specs. to see what is recommended.
Here is a link that might be useful: Comparative R-Values of Flooring and Subfloors
I have radiant heat, the kind with the pex water tubes. In the rooms with marble tiles and in the stamped concrete slab it is great! I love it! over hardwood, it's not so great. I'm pretty sure that under carpeting it would not be very effective at all. I suggest you change you choice of flooring material or forget the radiant heat altogether.
To work, radiant heat has to be able to radiate. (Look back to your junior high science classes.) Insulating it from that with pad and carpeting will greatly lessen it's effectiveness. If this is a new build, you could investigate placing it in the lower third of the wall instead, but that is a MUCH more difficult installation technique and is complicated by furniture placement as well.

Montreal Canadiens defenseman P.K. Subban (76) is swarmed by teammates after scoring a goal in the second overtime against the Boston Bruins in game one of the second round of the 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs at TD Banknorth Garden. (Greg M. Cooper-USA TODAY Sports)
Subban goal in 2nd OT sinks Bruins' Game 1 comeback effort
Carey Price (48 saves) denied David Krejci's backhanded bid from in close midway through the first overtime before Tuukka Rask (29 saves) made a brilliant glove save on Tomas Plekanec early in the second. Boston defenseman Matt Bartkowski was whistled for holding and the Canadiens promptly cashed in after the ensuing faceoff. Blue-liner Andrei Markov set up Subban, who unleashed a blast from the point that sailed past Rask to end the contest.
Rene Bourque collected a goal and an assist while defenseman Francis Bouillon also tallied for Montreal, which remained perfect after sweeping Tampa Bay in the first round. Markov notched two assists in the win.
Defenseman Johnny Boychuk forged a 3-3 tie with 1:58 remaining in the third period for the Bruins, who host Game 2 on Saturday afternoon. Reilly Smith and blue-liner Torey Krug also tallied while Brad Marchand set up a pair of goals.
Smith scored from deep in the right faceoff circle at 2:44 of the third period before Krug leveled the contest at 2-2 with a blast from the left circle at 6:30. Montreal captain Brian Gionta, who was playing in his 100th career playoff game, set up Bouillon for a one-timer from the left circle 5 [1/2] minutes later, but Boychuk answered with a blast from the point that beat a screened Price.
GAME NOTEBOOK: The winner of Game 1 emerged victorious in 27 of the previous 33 postseason series between the Original Six rivals. ... Subban's wrist shot from the point 11:23 into the first period opened the scoring, marking his first tally since March 3 - a span of 23 games. ... Bourque converted a 2-on-1 rush 3:38 into the second for his fourth goal in five contests. He had just nine tallies in 63 games during the regular season. ... Montreal C Lars Eller notched an assist on Bourque's goal, extending his point streak to five games. ... Boston LW Daniel Paille returned to the lineup for the first time since suffering a head injury on April 12.

Mandy's late, but she's worth the wait: All the Boys Love Mandy Lane review

Share via Email
All the Boys Love Mandy Lane
Starring Amber Heard, Michael Welch and Luke Grimes. Directed by Jonathan Levine. Opening Oct. 4 at the Carlton Cinema. 90 minutes. 14A.
Time has been kinder to All the Boys Love Mandy Lane than the Weinstein Co., which has been hiding this slasher curio since its 2006 premiere in TIFF's Midnight Madness program.
The TIFF applause had barely subsided before Harvey and Bob Weinstein snapped it up, and then inexplicably decided to shelve it as they have for so many of their acquisitions.
Indie director Jonathan Levine shrugged and set about making a name for himself as a fresh eye on old genres, with films that also include The Wackness, 50/50 and Warm Bodies.
And Amber Heard, who plays the film's title teen hottie, worked on steaming up screens small and large, with roles in TV's short-lived The Playboy Club and such movie hits as Pineapple Express and Zombieland.
All the Boys Love Mandy Lane affords us a chance to see Levine's work and Heard's smolder at first blush (or slash), while also saying hello to fellow late bloomers Michael Welch (The Twilight Saga) and Luke Grimes (TV's True Blood).
It's a time trip worth taking, with moody lensing and a suspenseful script (by Jacob Forman) that offers more than just the usual bloodbath.
Originality is not the film's strong suit, as much as it strives to reinvent the wail. Right from the get-go, when the camera lingers over Heard's ample bosom and intriguing smile, we get the picture that there's more happening in Mandy's life than pool parties and bothersome boys.
Peer pressure and plot needs conspire to bring Mandy and her pals to a remote farmhouse — it's just past the "last chance for gas" sign — whereupon things go bump and slash in the night.
Among other oddities, this may just be the only time that America's "Sister Golden Hair' and the Go-Go's "Our Lips Are Sealed" have dominated the soundtrack of a horror movie.

About four years ago, Uruguayan cable company TCC took the unprecedented step of shifting its focus from being a network operator to pioneering service innovation in content distribution. The change in strategy, as well as the challenges and opportunities it presents, is explained by Javier Ruete, CEO of TCC, in a new video case study.

Fortunately, cardless security has matured in time to meet the region's objectives simulataneously.

The next five years will bring forth more changes in the industry than we've seen in the past two decades. Among several factors reshaping the pay-TV landscape, the rapid rise of Netflix and online video platforms was a hot topic during the panel discussion. Although it may seem that companies providing content at lower costs can pose significant threats to more traditional pay-TV offerings, the general consensus of the panel was that they encourage positive change in the industry, challenging providers to reinvent their products in order to meet changing customer demands.

Mecca Hotel Prices Skyrocketed in Ramadan 2010, Up 31% YOY
HotelsCombined.com, the world's leading hotel price comparison search engine, announced that the prices of hotels in Mecca (Makkah), were up 31% for the Muslim holy month of Ramadan 2010 YOY.
Sites statistics indicate the average night rate for Ramadan was USD $568 this year, up from $433 in 2009.
Spokesperson, Hichame Assi, Head of Strategy and Online Marketing for HotelsCombined.com, said, "Whilst the average night rate for Ramadan increased, it did not cause pilgrims to cut their travels short, rather pilgrims extended their travels this year on average 7 nights, up from 5 nights in 2009.
"As a global site we believe we are a good barometer to travel trends and based on site traffic, pilgrims and visitors from Europe, South Africa, America, Australia and neighboring GCC states were on the rise, while the number of pilgrims and visitors from developing countries, including Egypt, India, Pakistan and Philippines, dropped. We believe the drop is somewhat related to the rising hotel prices, although the drop from Pakistan may be due to the impact of the floods as well."
Early indications suggest hotel prices for Hajj 2010, the annual Muslim pilgrimage, will be triple that of Ramadan 2010 for independent travelers, signifying hoteliers are expecting record numbers of pilgrims to flock to the city on Saudi Arabia's Red Sea coast.
"This year has shown travelers are making their hotel reservations earlier for Hajj in comparison to last year's bookings, which were largely last-minute bookings due to the H1N1 virus," added Hichame.

The man accused of gunning down a police constable was attempting to protect a stash of methamphetamine, an illegal cache of guns and a stolen car, a court has been told.
The motive was revealed during a hearing in the High Court at Auckland yesterday to decide an appeal on suppression orders.
Justice Rhys Harrison ended name suppression for Neshanderan Rajgopaul, charged with shooting Jeremy Snow, 28, on December 22.
The court was told Rajgopaul, 28, went by the nickname Africa and walked around always armed "like a gangster".
The judge also lifted suppression orders related to three more charges Rajgopaul faces allegedly showing a pattern of pulling guns on people in altercations.
Mr Snow was hit four times, once in each leg, once in the left arm and once in the chest after he and partner Robert Cato stopped to check a car with hazard lights flashing in a Papatoetoe driveway.
Doctors said had Mr Snow not been rescued so quickly he probably would have bled to death.
The Crown alleges Rajgopaul had 45 grams of methamphetamine intended for supply, stashed in a sleepout at the property.
Guns were also found in a stolen Audi parked in the driveway and in the house. They included the .38 Eastern European-manufactured pistol that was used to shoot Mr Snow, a 10-gauge shotgun, a cut-down .22 rifle and another handgun.
Crown solicitor Rachael Reed told the court: "His [Rajgopaul's] motive for coming out armed was to protect the guns, the Audi and the meth."
Rajgopaul is also alleged to have fired at Gavin Lomas, who rented the sleepout on the property.
After the shooting, Rajgopaul was found three blocks away by a police dog. He faces an attempted murder charge, two of unlawful possession of firearms, discharging a firearm with intent to cause grievous bodily harm against Mr Lomas and possession of methamphetamine for supply, stemming from the December 22 event.
Defence lawyer Shane Tait said Rajgopaul admitted he was at the property but denied pulling the trigger.
Justice Harrison said that made identification the "primary issue" of the upcoming trial.
The judge said three men were at the Buckingham Cres property – Rajgopaul, Mr Lomas and Darren Court.
Both Mr Court and Mr Lomas would give evidence saying Rajgopaul shot Mr Snow, Mr Harrison said.
Mr Tait wanted to keep details of three further charges under wraps. He said they were unrelated and would be prejudicial to his client's trial.
Between September 9 last year and December 22, Rajgopaul is accused of having pulled a gun on three people at different times. He is charged with assaulting Kenneth Caine, Phillip Andrew Kingi and Amanda Riley, using a firearm as a weapon.
All three knew the man who assaulted them as "Africa" – a nickname given because he was an Indian from South Africa.
"All three will identify Africa as Mr Rajgopaul," Mr Harrison said.
He quoted from a brief of evidence by Ms Riley who said of Rajgopaul: "He was in the habit of walking around like a gangster and always had guns on him."
The Crown argued the charges showed Rajgopaul had a "propensity" to use guns and indicated his state of mind on the morning Mr Snow was shot.
Judge Harrison said the earlier allegations would be a key for the Crown in proving identification.
"The common thread is Rajgopaul's alleged use of a firearm to intimidate or assault associates," Mr Harrison said.

Malhgold: Love your pendants...
Hi. I saw the pic you posted regarding the black granite counter. I love your pendants -- and your kitchen in general! Would you mind sharing the name/manufacturer of your pendants?
Thanks alot.
The Globe Light from West Elm. I too love them. I went to West Elm a few months ago here in Calif to see what they look like up close. While I still love their shape and design, I was a trifle bit worried because they seemed to be rather bright. I am wondering if Malhgold finds them a bit too "stark"? When lit, there is nothing to diffuse the light--it's kind of intense. I am thinking that maybe if they are up above eye height it won't be as noticeable but the ones that I saw were three hanging over the cash registers, and that filament part was really bright.
Ours are approx. 33" above the counter, so they're definitely not at eye level(at least not our eyes...we're a short family!!!). When we first installed them, I felt like my eye kept going to the light(I think I was trying to figure out if they would be annoying or not), but now I don't even look at them when they're on. I guess I got used to it. But yes, if you do stare at them for a period of time, you will see spots for a little bit. But like I said, I don't stare at them. Hope this helps.
Malhgold--so this is totally off topic, but your "alcove" with the white walls and the wood shelves that you put your dishes in is one of my favorite kitchen nooks I have ever seen! Just adore that and try as I might, I had no "built in" walls. Just plain old regular walls--didn't and couldn't build up a wall to make that happen. Still, it's just lovely, simple, clean and BEAUTIFUL!! Love it juxtaposed next to the clean industrial refridge. The sleekness of the stainless and the interesting plates/cups right next to it are a perfect balance. And I love your cabinet pulls with the rings too (not in picture above, but I remember from other posts)...you have FAB style!
Thanks firsthouse. The shelves are actually stainless. The area has been working out beautifully. My DW is to the right of the sink that is under the window, so I just open it and unload onto the shelves. There is another matching alcove on the opposite side of the frig(to the right of the doorway) that has some decorative items in it. I'll post that pic if I ever get my backsplash done and post finished pics!
I never did get the ring pulls for the pantry. I went with tiny, round, inconspicuous knobs(at least for now) as I really didn't want the hardware to be the "star" and had to make a decision.
I haven't seen your kitchen so pulled together. I was so surprised with the photo above, but ehn I realized you were just about to get counters installed last I saw. Yours has been a vision and a mission I have enjoyed following. Are you loving the results? It looks great.

This suit is the boom from the color to the fit I love this suit and for the price you cannot beat it. I love the color also
I was looking for a summer suit without spending a whole lot of cash, and this suit fit the bill to the "T". It attracts attention in a cool sort of way. It has a classic/classy sort of look and it feels good.
This was intended to be worn at an outdoor summer wedding. The suit looked wonderful on my husband. Unfortunately, it was tailored slightly smaller than his other 40 reg. suits. Regretfully, we had to return it as it was simply too snug. Too bad. It was a great looking suit.
Suit was perfect for prom and Summer events. The quality of fabric compared to price, excellent. It has been worn as a complete suit as well as separate, and is perfect for warm weather. A nice change to the "standard" suit giving a cool retro vibe. Great purchase.
I bought this to attend a summer wedding. Shipping was fast and accurate. My main concern was how the jacket would fit since the slacks can be altered. No alterations necessary (except length). I am very pleased with my purchase. For this price you could not do better. Will buy again from Overstock.
I love this suit. From the moment I put it on, I get compliments from even strangers passing on the street. Can't go wrong

From The Forum.
I REMEMBER in the 70s going to the pictures for the matinee. It took about three hours of the Saturday up so mom could go shopping.
I remember people used to clap and cheer before and after a film. People were more spirited in those days.
I WELL remember Saturday matinees at the Sutton Odeon. I was the assistant manager there during the late-70s. I really enjoyed the great atmosphere the kids generated, it took me back to my own carefree days.
THOSE were the days. I can remember Perry Barr Odeon fondly. We used to pay a 'tanner' (six old pence) for the whole show. When it was your birthday, they used to send you a card that permitted you and a friend free entry.
WE used to go to the Rock, Capitol and Beaufort Cinemas. The Rock and Beaufort are long gone now. Don't know if the Capitol is still there.
