There really is something to be said for being a loyal customer and supporting a company through years and years of products, including newer and more expensive ones every few years. That is the life of being a videogame enthusiast; you get roped into purchasing new consoles every few years while your old system has been rendered obsolete and all of the cool new games are heading to the new system. Sure, there is always that couple of month buffer where those toned down versions of games get released for the older system, but it never feels the same and it feels like you are being fed table scraps for not supporting the newest and best.
Since we've moved on to being entirely disc and digital games the idea of backwards compatibility has been one that we've been talking about for a while now. If anything, it was a trend that was begun by Sony with the PlayStation 2 having the ability to play original PlayStation titles on the system, with there even being options to upscale the older games and do some anti-aliasing on them. All of a sudden with the PlayStation 3 the concept of backwards compatibility became a premium before it was phased out entirely. Why? Because you are still willing to go out and purchase a new PlayStation 2 to play those old games of yours, or because you'll just repurchase the game's re-release just to play it again.
Sure, in a way, complaining about lack of backwards compatibility seems like a first world problem if there ever was one. It wasn't like you could jam a NES cartridge into a SNES or N64 and play those games, but we do live in a new era of digital and modern consoles are getting more and more powerful. It just seems like a natural thing, as older consoles and games are only supported for so long while a newer version is on the market; why not let us play our older games on your newer system?
Of course it comes down to money and how developers, publishers and even the hardware manufacturers want to make more of it. If you go out and purchase an old copy of Ghosts'n Ghouls right now there is zero chance that Capcom will see a dime of that money, but if they were to put it up online for a few bucks, they'd see money from that. That is the model that we are seeing more and more now with games that could easily be played on modern consoles but are simply not supported.
Wednesday saw the big unveiling of the PlayStation 4 and there has been talk about how Gaikai will integrate with the system and how older games will be "streamed" to your console in the future, but until then you can always play them on Sony's cloud service. My only real problem with this is that many are claiming that this makes the PS4 "backwards compatible," when the reality is, if I have my PlayStation 2 disc of Fire Pro Wrestling Returns, chances are that I won't be able to play it on my PlayStation 4. That is, of course, unless it is released on their service and I am allowed to pay for it, again, then play it.
That isn't backwards compatibility, that is me purchasing a game again.

Nice article exactly the reason why it was taken out of ps3 so they could sell them all over again with digital copies on the psn store and HD remaster collections. More profit in preventing backwards play than allowing it. Sad but true.
February 21, 2013 at 7:24 pm
Sad but not true, it's because they were selling the console for $600 and nobody wanted that. The only reason they got it down to $300 is because they had to use cost-cutting measures like taking out the extra processors required for backwards compatibility.
February 21, 2013 at 8:23 pm
I think that it is a little of column A and a little from column B, sadly.
For a while they were definitely happy to keep selling PS2s and then were able to make some money selling PS2 classics on PSN. Maybe I'm not trusting, but I just think that even if they could give backwards compatibility that they wouldn't at this point, because it's proven that consumers will repurchase games.
February 21, 2013 at 10:38 pm
@google-8018350041657d8273edfa8e7382d76b:disqus The facts really don't spell that out. The PS3 was on life support and Sony had to take drastic measures to make it profitable (or at least not such a blood bath).
Just because a company does something to secure more profits doesn't make them evil.
Why do you want Sony to spend more time trying to make last gen games work in your next gen system? I would hope that they would put their focus into delivering a top notch next gen experience.
The fact is if there is a PS5 it will likely be x86 based and Backwards Compatibility shouldn't be a huge issue. The are moving away from the Cell and to x86, the codebase compatible with the Cell doesn't run on the x86 CPU and would require a complete overhaul.
Perhaps one day they will offer a software emulator and or streaming via the cloud.
February 22, 2013 at 6:17 am
They may have been on early life support then why since didn't they introduce a software emulation firmware update since. Its been long known that they have a copyrighted patent for such an application for the ps3 but have never implemented it. Why, because they can make users buy the games all over again on the psn store and hd remasters.
February 22, 2013 at 6:34 am
The fact is Backwards Compatibility is feature that is asked for much more than it is used. I had a backward compatible (hardware level) PS3. I owned all the God of Wars but I still got the God of War Origins because they looked better, played better and they had trophy support, etc.
You just as Dave Walsh above are being presumptuous. The feature wasn't largely used and overall Sony wasted precious engineering resources delivering PS2 compatibility to the PS3.
So what if they have an emulator "copyrighted". That doesn't mean it works that well. Do you even have a remote idea on how emulators work? Making the PS2 compatible with the PS3 is a much bigger task than creating an Arcade ROM emulator. Making the PS3 compatible with the PS4 is exponentially harder. You don't know what you are talking about here, so please stop being so presumptuous it only showcases your ignorance (with all due respect).
I believe all PS3s will accept PS1 discs. They were able to do nearly seamless PS1 emulation. Why isn't Sony "forcing" people to buy the PSN versions?
In regards to Sony "making users buy games over and over again", I wasn't aware they were creators of Mind Control technology. I have a mind of my own and can make up my own mind which games are the best value to me. Suggesting there is some conspiracy afoot is silly.
The fact is so far the HD Remakes / Upscales have been a great deal. Usually you get between 2-3 games for $40 with additional features that were not available when the game was released. Online that works way better than the PS2 days. These games are ported by developers and it's not a turnkey process.
There are far more PS3s without Backward Compatibility than there are WITH Backward Compatibility, that alone should tell you something. The system really didn't start selling until after they shed that feature. Which added additional expense at the hardware level and took away development resources on the software level.
I don't know if you guys noticed but we have had a sh!t economy for some time now. Had there been more disposable income to go around these features may have been more valuable to people. When you buy a PS4 and you have a PS3 its really hard to make a case that you require backward compatibility.
It be nice to have, but far too costly to implement in the PS4.
February 22, 2013 at 6:44 am
If you think Sony or any game maker for that matter care about the economy and how much you should be saving then you better think again. Then why would they constantly be releasing games with heaps of dlc from day one, more collector editions of games than ever before, over priced digital content and so on. They are a business and profit is their main concern. Also just because things like this are said it does not mean people hate Sony etc. it just means they are not blind and can see that consumers are more and more losing their rights and strangely enough it seems that their are people like you that do not care and are actually defending those companies that wish to take their freedoms away.
February 22, 2013 at 6:52 am
@e7edef712548b43b7e889bae2fe043a0:disqus Does Jack Trentton come to your house and put a gun to your head and tell you to buy it all?
They constantly release games because that is there business, just like musicians constantly releasing music and going on tours. You know how a free market economy works right?
DLC is a response to monetize the used game sales, without an online pass developers and publishers don't see any monies from a used product that often competes beside their brand new product.
Profit is a concern, but they have to be concerned about the customers and the stock holders. Like I said Jack Tretton doesn't force anyone to buy anything (the only people who can legitimately take your money by force is the Government). Sony has to put out a product that the customers like (they have competition and PLENTY OF IT) and brings the company value so the stockholders are happy, in the middle they have to keep the employees happy with competitive salaries and benefits package.
The reason you have so many gaming options and even various packages to the games is because the publishers and developers are trying their best to keep people employed. I don't know where you have been, but the past 6+ years in gaming have been a bloodbath to developers and publishers. Sure COD and Assassins Creed has done well but they are the norm at all.
How can Sony take your freedom away? Jesus who raised you Karl Marx? From the way it sounds I have forgotten more about economics than you ever learned.
February 22, 2013 at 6:55 am
Relax this is not a personal attack, they did not say something about your mom. Why get so abusive over a game company can't you have a civil response.
February 22, 2013 at 6:59 am
@499a22fde4ebb35ff90c33277cbf4af9:disqus I get offended by people showcasing their ignorance and just making wild assumptions about things they obviously have no understanding of.
It was an intellectual attack, it hurt my brain to hear what he had to say.
The fact is his comment wasn't civil to begin with. It was a knee jerk reaction devoid of intellectual scrutiny.
"Sony is trying to take our freedoms away." <- does that not make your brain hurt a little bit? It really should!
February 22, 2013 at 7:03 am
@499a22fde4ebb35ff90c33277cbf4af9:disqus Pointing out where someone is factually and technically wrong isn't an attack.
February 22, 2013 at 7:12 am
@e7edef712548b43b7e889bae2fe043a0:disqus (continued from below)…
Look I am not suggesting that all companies are pure as the driven snow, but usually there are options if you don't like company A work with company B.
I am just saying that this whole Cell -> x86 backwards compatibility thing is really engineering level stuff that most developers can't even approach.
Also I bet this would require very low level coding (maybe Assembler) but it is very hard to find that kind of programmer these days. Software packages (such as Unreal) are doing a very good job of being optimized and thus the low-level coders aren't needed at the developer level like they were in the PS2 days (when development packages were not as optimized).
August 2, 2013 at 9:28 pm
No if someone doesnt suck off sony's cum, they hate sony and they are dumb, tahts what this moronic fanboy believes.
August 2, 2013 at 9:27 pm
ahahahhaha you know nothing about hardware.
August 2, 2013 at 9:27 pm
How come you admit that ps3 was a failure?
Anyway you are a moron, now tell me how do you feel about stalking now that you know what is really like?
You asked for this dumb kiddo. Enjoy it. I know i will.
February 21, 2013 at 9:53 pm
You are making some presumptuous there. They very well could detect the disc in the tray and allow access to the game via the cloud for no charge.
February 22, 2013 at 6:31 am
Your dreaming if you think no charge. Just look at what Sony did with old psp games when transferring to vita. There will be a small cost at the very least.
February 22, 2013 at 6:44 am
@614a0e862faf7694303c5fcce7b7f606:disqus Having access to the cloud at that level will be a subscription service, Sony would be hard press to sell the service that charged you to play the games you physically still own. Let's be reasonable.
The old PSP games to Vita thing never really happened in the USA. That situation is completely different though because with PS3 games you will have the disc in the PS4. There was no way to put a PSP disc into a PS Vita. So your analogy doesn't work here at all.
February 22, 2013 at 6:46 am
Time will tell.
February 22, 2013 at 6:57 am
Well my presumption at least draws from reality.
February 22, 2013 at 1:11 am
if you already have the digital version of the game, when it arrives to the ps4 store, you will have the same account, so the games you already bought, will be available for download at no additional cost.
February 22, 2013 at 2:42 am
digital psn games will not transfer over theyve already confirmed that
February 22, 2013 at 7:04 am
If they do PS3 in the cloud everything is on the table. PSN games don't pose any more challenge than a disc based game.
February 23, 2013 at 4:17 am
psn natively wont be available for the PS4. but with gaikai, or emulation when it is eventually featured in the PS4 psn store, if you already bought it for PS3, you will be able to play it or stream it at no charge.
the game is attached to your PSN account.
February 22, 2013 at 4:25 am
After talking with many of my "Hardcore PlayStation Gamer" friends
and post seeing the PlayStation 4 announcement, we have come up with a list of
concerns we have. It would be greatly appreciated it you could pass this
list on to the proper channels.
1. Removal of the Start and Select buttons – While we all agree that
the new controller is stunning and beautifully designed, one of the smaller
problems we had with it was the lack of start and select.
"Options" is not sufficient in attempting to play any old game on the
console. Playing older games threw Gaikai or otherwise might prove to be
impossible without these buttons. Storngly recomend you change
"options" back to Start and Select.
2. Backward Compatibility – We cannot fathom why this was not
important to Sony, as it was a major issue with the PS3 launch. (Most of
us have kept the original PlayStation 3 for that reason) If you cannot
include the hardware to run PS1, PS2, and PS3 games please allow the PS4 to
obtain the software emulate them. With 8 GB of memory, this should not be
a problem. Gaikai is nice, but with large collections of PS1, PS2 and PS3
games, we would like to use them on the new system.
Or if nothing else, release a high end SKU of the PS4 with backwards
compatibility, we are sure many of your loyal fans would appreciate (and
purchase) this.
2.5 Along with the "backwards compatibility" section,
we believe it would be a smart move for Sony to allow the Dualshock 3
controllers to connect with the PS4 as well. This would be great for
anyone converting from a PlayStation 3 to a PlayStation 4 and does not have the
money to purchase extras as well as a sign of good faith from the PlayStation
3. Social Features – While posting your trophies or connecting to Facebook
and various other social mediums throgh PlayStation are good ideas, please make
all of these optional. Many of the core gamers have no interest in these
features and many, myself included do not use social networking at all. Thefore
if it were mandaoty we could not play games.
4. New Friends Methodology – While we found the idea of expanding
upon the friends page interesting, we appreciated the privacy that PS3
provided. DO NOT FORCE users to create accounts with their picture and
name. Once again, we stress, please make this optional.
5. New Operating System – The XMB was perfect. Logically laid out with
every application categorized into a sub category. Because of this, it
was both intuitive and easy to use. While we only received a quick glimpse,
the new operating system, seems to make far less sense. Please allow
customization so the more logically minded among us can use the new system with
ease as well. Perhaps an optional interface, closer to the PSVITA's?
6. Camera – While this new Camera could be used for some interesting
moments and ideas in gaming. DO NOT make it mandatory. Many of us
do not nor have we ever liked motion or camera based games. Please DO NOT
require a camera to use the new controllers.
7. Intuitive Downloads – Many of us, like to select games with no
pattern or complete randomness, and in doing so do not like games to be
downloaded for us. This idea is a good one, but once again it should be
8. Ideas – With 8 Gigs of memory the PlayStation 4 is the perfect time
for cross game voice chat, PSN ID tagged controllers, and a system that allows
users to play music at all time along with the game they are playing.
Doing this would help PlayStation, to also become a hub for entertainment.
P.S. it would be really cool if the "PS" button on the center of
the Dualshock 4 light up red. This would make it more iconic.
In conclusion, we have come to the consensus that while we enjoy many of the
new PlayStation features we hope that you will consider adding some more and
that you leave some optional. Aside from that you should know: keep up the
great work! The specs are spectacular, we couldn't have asked for a better
controller (almost) and the game line up looks awesome.
February 22, 2013 at 4:26 am
Why don't we petition Sony for a high ended SKU with backwards Compatibility? (with 8 gb of memory this should not be hard to emulate (PS1 and PS2 wise)
February 22, 2013 at 4:28 am
This is a feature that would show a sign of good faith toward the PlayStation family. At least give us a high ended version when it comes out so some can get it
February 22, 2013 at 6:40 am
That means the cost of the PS4 + the cost of the Cell + the cost of the engineering resources needed to make those two place nice in the same package + the cost of support of an additional model + the cost to your economy of scale by having an additional model + etc + etc + etc
There are so many variables none of you are considering here. I can understand wishing that you can have this feature but saying things such as "PS3 compatibility would be a great sign of good faith" means that you have no idea what is involved with delivering a feature such as that.
The Cell CPU and x86 have very little in common, emulation would be a very difficult task, adding all the costs above is not an option this generation. Sony needs to sell a lean mean machine.
I am not trying to be a Debbie downer here but what you guys want will just cost too much to be a viable option. It sucks but that is the reality.

my god you are a huge fanboy a huge CONSOLTARDED fantard

Missouri Tigers guard Jordan Clarkson brings the ball up court. (Jim Brown-USA TODAY Sports)
Jan. 16, 2014
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Rod Odom scored a career-high 24 points, hitting six 3-pointers, and the short-handed Vanderbilt Commodores beat Missouri 78-75 Thursday night in the Tigers' first visit to Memorial Gym as a member of the Southeastern Conference.
Vanderbilt (9-6, 1-2) snapped a two-game skid by avoiding foul trouble and hitting a season-high 12 3-pointers.
Missouri (13-3, 1-2) now has lost two of three. The Tigers were looking for their third road win this season trying to work their way back into the Top 25.
Kyle Fuller added 22 points for Vanderbilt. Dai-Jon Parker had 11, and Damian Jones added 10.
Jabari Brown scored 22 points for Missouri, while Jordan Clarkson had 18 and Ross 11.
The Tigers opened the second half by scoring the first eight points in taking their first lead since the opening bucket on a layup by Williams at 40-39. The teams swapped the lead back and forth before Fuller finished off a fast-break with a layup for Vanderbilt putting the Commodores back ahead 45-44 with 13:30 to go. That started a 10-2 spurt featuring a pair of 3s from Odom, the second giving Vandy a 53-46 lead with 10:52 remaining.
Misssouri pulled within 60-57 on a jumper by Brown with 4:17 left. First Fuller hit a 3-pointer, then Odom added his sixth 3 to push the lead to 66-59 with 2:00 left. The Tigers couldn't get closer than the final score on a 3-pointer by Clarkson with 2 seconds left as Vanderbilt went 6 of 7 at the free throw line in the final 40 seconds with Fuller hitting all six of attempts at the line to seal the win.
These are two of the SEC's best shooting teams and the league's best defending against the 3-pointer with Vanderbilt (27.8 percent) just ahead of Missouri (28.6 percent). The Commodores shredded Missouri's defense as they knocked down 3 after 3 and finished 12 of 32 (37.5 percent) - both season-highs allowed by the Tigers. That more than made up for Missouri outrebounding Vanderbilt 45-35 and the Tigers' 36-16 scoring edge in the paint.
Missouri opened the game with a 3 by Brown for the Tigers' biggest lead of the game.
Then Vanderbilt went on a 17-2 run started by a 3-pointer from Odom and Parker. Missouri countered with its own 14-4 run to get close. But the Commodores led 39-32 at halftime because they shot better from beyond the arc than they did inside as they hit 8 of their first 16 3-pointers.

Gallery: Brazil Announces Massive Plan to Survey Amazon Rainforest, Cut...
Brazil recently announced plans to count and catalogue the trees in the Amazon rainforest as part of a massive conservation measure. The survey will provide more insight into the condition of the Amazon forest cover, 60 percent of which lies within Brazil's borders. Teams sent across the country will sample about 20,000 points at 20 km intervals, recording the number, height, diameter and species of trees.
The new survey will provide the most comprehensive data on the condition of the Amazon rainforest since the 70s. The last inventory was undertaken by Projeto RadamBrasil, an extensive aerial survey of the Amazon region that lasted more than a decade. "We are going to come to know the rainforest from within," said Forestry Minister Antonio Carlos Hummel.
Brazil, once one of the world's largest deforesters, has pledged to cut deforestation rates by 80 percent below 2004 levels by 2020. According to state's official reports, the pace of deforestation in its Amazon region this year fell to its lowest level since authorities began monitoring the world's largest tropical rainforest. The new survey, planned to help continue that trend, is expected to take four years, and results will be published yearly.

Arizona Diamondbacks
Cy Young race between D-backs' Kennedy and Phillies' Halladay
The last Arizona Diamondback to win the NL Cy Young award was Brandon Webb nearly five years ago.
But as the season winds down and the Cy Young finalists start to separate themselves from the pack, former Philadelphia Phillies pitcher and current MLB Network analyst Mitch Williams believes the drought could come to an end this season.
"It's going to come down to three guys Roy Halladay, Clayton Kershaw and Ian Kennedy," Williams told Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo. "Kershaw has the best overall across the board numbers, but he pitches in Dodger Stadium which is a pitchers ballpark."
Williams believes Kennedy and Halladay's home ballparks give them a clear advantage over the Dodgers lefty.
"Kershaw is 9-0 at home but if you put Kennedy or Halladay in Dodger Stadium they would be 9-0 at home too," Williams said. "Chase Field and Citizens Bank Park are band boxes so Kennedy and Halladay have to pitch."
This season Kennedy has posted a record of 17-4 with a 3.03 ERA while Halladay is 16-5 with a 2.47 ERA.
"Kershaw has been great," Williams said, "but there is going to be a lot of writers who look at that [where he pitches] and what Kennedy has done in Chase Field, so if he and Halladay win out I honestly believe it will be between them two."

Spring Break Safety
Between now and the end of April, schools across Alabama and neighboring states will observe spring break, and the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) expects heavier-than-usual traffic on Alabama roadways and waterways.
Alabama State Troopers strongly encourage teens and their parents to make safety a priority.
"Parents, we need your help to make spring break season a safe one," Secretary of Law Enforcement Spencer Collier said. "Let's take a few minutes to go over traffic laws and boating with our teens, especially if they plan to travel with teen friends. Remind them to buckle up, to focus on the road, to avoid such distractions as texting while driving and to obey speed limits and other traffic laws."
In addition, Collier said parents should ensure everyone understands boating laws and uses life vests when on the water. "The risk of water-related injuries increases as water traffic increases, so we all must be cautious when spending time at the lake or beach."
And, he continued, because alcohol is the primary contributing factor in more than 60 percent of boating crashes, it is important to assign a designated boating operator before even setting out on a trip. While making plans, parents and other adults should be prepared to restrict access to alcohol and closely monitor teens to prevent under-age use.
Collier said this also is the time for everyone to review the state's Graduated Driver License law, a three-stage licensing process that places certain restrictions on young drivers to ensure they acquire experience behind the wheel before driving without supervision or restrictions:
Stage I (learner's permit): A teen is authorized to drive when accompanied by a parent, legal guardian or licensed driver age 21 or older who is occupying the front passenger seat.
Stage II (restricted license): A teen age 16 or 17 who has passed the road skills test may drive without supervision, but he or she must not have more than one passenger in the vehicle other than parents, legal guardians or family members; must not use any handheld communication devices while driving; must not drive between midnight and 6 a.m. unless accompanied by a parent, legal guardian or licensed driver age 21 or older.
Stage III (unrestricted license): A teen age 17 who has held a Stage II license for six months or longer may obtain an unrestricted license. Anyone who is age 18 or older may bypass the first two stages and obtain a Stage III license after passing the road skills test.
For further information on Alabama's boating, traffic and drinking laws, please visit www.alea.gov.

Apple trees in small spaces
Hello everyone,
I would like you to share your experiences with apple trees in small/tight spaces.I have a patch of soil 3.5ft wide along the block wall dividing my neighbor and I. On this soil patch, near the backyard gate I planted a Dorsett Golden on a 2' high mound for drainage. The tree is 18" from the block wall and 2" from the backyard gate fence. Both my home and my neighbors home are single story homes, so a 10' tall tree at this location should get full sun. Currently, the tree will only get 4-6 hours of sun in summer.
What do yall think? Will this location work, or was this a terrible idea?
correction, thats 2' from the wood fence.
Honestly... not enough sun, not enough space, and I wonder if you need a pollinator... or is Dorsett self-pollinating? Could you possibly move to any wider space with more sun? I suppose it is worth a shot but I wouldn't get my hopes up much that it will be fruitful.
The tree is facing east. I have a 30' row of 6 apple trees along that block wall, spaced out 5' apart. The tree shown is the closest to the house/backyard fence. I plan on removing the fence boards and replacing with gavonized wire to prevent my dog from leaving the side yard, but still allow sun to get in. This should give me a little more sun during spring & fall when the sun will be coming from the south (opposite side of wood fence.)

Recipe by Lizard
"Creamy chip dip."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.
Show ingredients on sale

Save money at local stores when ingredients are on sale!
Watch video tips and tricks
1 cup
shredded Cheddar cheese
1 (8 ounce) package
cream cheese, softened
jalapeno peppers, or more to taste, seeded and minced
5 slices
cooked bacon, crumbled
1/2 cup
sweet corn kernels
1/4 cup
I've made this twice, and made adjustments both times. First time, almost as written, second time, lower fat.
First time making it, added more bacon, because...bacon. Substituted sour cream for the mayo because mayo is gross and greasy. Came out delicious, should have left more seeds to make it hotter.
Second time, lower fat. One reduced fat cream cheese, one fat-free. Turkey bacon and fat free greek yogurt instead of mayo/sour cream. I used one cup of reduced fat shredded cheddar/monterey jack blend, then grated 1/2 cup of sharp cheddar. You could not tell that it had reduced fat ingredients, I still had a ton of taste. Next time, a few more seeds to make it even hotter, maybe some hot sauce.
fabulous i used canned jalapenos and a pkg of bacon pieces(not bits) mixed all together and cooked on low in a crock pot was a big hit
7 Ratings
Awesome dip. Will definitely make this again!
Just made this. It is very addicting! Very easy to make. I added a little more mayo and about 1/2 the jalapeños based on previous comments. This will be a keeper recipe!
Great dip! Used real bacon bits to save time. The finished dip is oily but so good!
This was absolutely delicious & loved by everyone. I used two jalapeños which was plenty plus added about 1/2 cup more mayo than called for to make it a bit more creamy. A perfect dip for potlucks, game night or Super Bowl!
I wish I had corn in the house when I made this recipe. I think with the corn it would be perfect. Unfortunately, I had none. I did mix in some sweet/hot pepper Jelly rather than more mayo - 1/4 cup wasn't enough to loosen it up enough for me and rather than add more fat, I opted for the sweet heat of the jelly. I didn't have 8 jalapenos on hand either, I had half that amount. I think it was perfect with just 4, with 8 it would have had too much pepper to cheesy goodness ratio.

The most important Cancer Book You will Ever Read
What do you do when your world is turned upside-down by a diagnosis of cancer? How do you sort through the dizzying array of conventional and nonconventional treatment options while also searching for meaningful ways of embracing the mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of healing?
The Journey Through Cancer answers these questions and more. Board-certified oncologist Jeremy Geffen, MD, has spent more than fifteen years providing treatment, guidance, and care for thousands of cancer patients and their families. In this groundbreaking work, he offers real and inspiring solutions to the unique challenges encountered on the cancer journey, while honoring and caring for the whole person—and his or her entire family—at every step along the way.
Full of practical guidance, The Journey Through Cancer will help you to:
• Understand the essential aspects of conventional diagnosis, staging, and treatment.
• Make informed and intelligent choices about the most effective, safe, and reliable complementary and alternative therapies.
• Discover new possibilities for physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Jeremy R. Geffen, MD, FACP, is a board-certified medical oncologist, a Fellow of the American College of Physicians, and the founder of Geffen Visions International, Inc. (geffenvisions.com). A pioneer in the field of integrative medicine and oncology, he also has more than thirty years' experience exploring the great spiritual and healing traditions of the East.
"Dr. Jeremy Geffen is an oncologist of the future, one who integrates the best of traditional and nontraditional approaches. It is unfortunate that all people who are concerned with cancer can't have Dr. Geffen as their doctor; this book is the next best thing." —Dean Ornish, MD, author of Love and Survival
"Dr. Geffen's vast knowledge, experience, insight, and compassion in the treatment of cancer patients shine radiantly through in The Journey Through Cancer. This is a useful book for anyone facing this serious challenge." —Deepak Chopra, MD, author of Peace Is the Way
"The single best book ever written for those with cancer and the people who love them." —Joan Borysenko, PhD, author of Minding the Body, Mending the Mind

Myths, facts about pregnancy
You've probably heard them: the time-honored advice that mothers-to-be get from well-meaning friends and relatives. No caffeine. Don't dye your hair. If you're carrying low, it's a boy; if high, it's a girl.
Most of the myths are old wives' tales and have little or no scientific basis, said Dr. Robert Beattie, chairman of family and community medicine at the UND School of Medicine and Health Sciences. But some "may have a grain of truth."

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
National Research Council cuts deep
Laying off 54 employees, selling buildings on Ellice
The National Research Council has laid off more than a third of its Winnipeg scientific staff and announced its intent to sell both its buildings on Ellice Avenue.
An NRC vice-president was in Winnipeg Monday to announce the layoff of 54 employees and the winding down of magnetic resonance imaging and related technology work that has been ongoing for many years, sources said.
"Facilities at 435 and 445 Ellice will be vacated and are to be sold," said NRC vice-president Roman Szumski in an announcement sources made available to the Free Press. "Remaining staff will continue to work in the medical-device portfolio, led by general manager Paul Wiebe, and relocated to a new facility in Winnipeg when a suitable location is found."
Winnipeg's NRC operations, known as the Institute for Biodiagnostics, had about 130 employees last September when about 20 positions were eliminated.
A spokesman for the National Research Council in Ottawa would not confirm details Tuesday, but did say "an announcement had been made" at the Winnipeg operation.
The shakeup at the NRC has been expected for some time. Sources said the transformation will mean less pure research and development work and more commercialization.
One Winnipeg executive who works closely with the NRC put it this way: "It will be industrial R and D for hire."
The NRC decision will be tough for Winnipeg, another technology industry executive said.
"The city is clicking its heels over a water park and IKEA, but this is big stuff. This is a kick in the teeth for the city."
Sources said the NRC's Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP) will not be affected by the layoffs. That program provides technical and business advice, financial assistance and access to national and international networks for small and medium-size enterprises.
The NRC's research in Winnipeg on MRIs produced some significant commercial spinoffs over the years.
Among other things, it was responsible for the development of original technology behind IMRIS Inc., the successful city medical-device company. IMRIS generated about $52 million in revenue last year selling its sophisticated, one-of-a-kind surgical-theatre MRI devices to hospitals around the world.
Ian Smith, the former director general for the NRC in Winnipeg, said last September the NRC's Winnipeg scientists have been working for several years to develop low-field, high-performance magnetic resonance systems that could sell for one-tenth the cost of conventional MRIs. Tuesday's announcement would seem to put an end to that project.
"We were expecting big changes, but we didn't know it would be that big or that quick," said Gary Brownstone, executive director of The Eureka Project, a business incubator at the University of Manitoba's Smartpark. "But it sounds consistent with the overall mantra of cost rationalization (at the NRC)."
No one was expecting the NRC would sell its buildings, however. Most of the top floor of the main building, which opened in the early 1990s, is leased to private-sector companies and organizations such as the Information and Communications Technologies Association of Manitoba.
"I guess the NRC did not want to be a landlord," said one Winnipeg executive who works in the sector.
In 2005, a second building was completed. The 55,000-square-foot structure, about half the size of the older building, was completed at a cost of about $11.2 million.
It houses Biomedical Commercialization Canada, a business incubator, but has never been completely filled.
The NRC shakeup is a significant move, said Tracey Maconachie, executive director of the Life Sciences Association of Manitoba, but he believes it could still work out for the city.
"These changes are going to be challenging, but there could be great opportunities with a more focused approach for Manitoba and Canada as a whole with the work that is being done at the NRC."

Reclaim Your Self Esteem
By minervaz
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
There you go again! Unsure if you should get this App or not. It might have worked for hundreds, thousands of others, but will it work for you? Probably not. Because nothing really ever works for you the way it should. Does it? Well, it won't work, if you don't ever try it!
That's how it is with everything. You don't want to try anything new, anything exciting, because it might not work. Not for you. Only for others. They are different. You are for ever unsure, too scared to try, in case you would fail. Again.
Now hang on!
This is not the real you, that shy, unsure person sharing your body. The one with low self esteem. It is someone who was created by other people. By circumstances. By your upbringing, your parents, your classmates, teachers . . . I don't know exactly who created that shy and timid person, but it isn't the real you. You are great. You are full of life, full of fun. You just don't show it.
Perhaps you are the other variety of a low self esteem personality. The one who tries to mask their inner feeling of inadequacy by being forever critical of others, hostile, unsociable, even aggressive at times. Yet tormented on the inside by an inner lack of self confidence. Feeling deep down, that you are the one who always falls short of expectations.
Yet, all babies are born with all the self esteem they need. Or let's say - with all the potential they need, to become healthy, happy, self confident people. They are daring, inquisitive, eager to explore and learn anything new and exciting. You yourself came into this marvelous world with those shiny, brand new eyes and interest in absolutely everything that was around you. You wanted to see, hear, touch, explore, . . . The purpose of the world was for you to have fun in. And you excitedly started to explore and taste and touch and smell - wow! It was so much fun!
Then something happened.
Someone, somehow, long time ago, took the fun and self esteem away from your life. Most probably unintentionally, possibly with good intentions. Not even knowing what they did to you, and why.
If you want to spend a fortune or psychologists and hypnotists, they could find out what it was. Who did this to you, when, and how. That could be interesting to know. But it wouldn't necessarily make much difference to your life. To know who, when and how.
If you want to improve your self esteem, you have to stop dwelling on past failures, and move on towards all the fun you are missing out on.
This App, will show you how to get more self esteem, and more fun into your life. It contains all the information you need to turn your life around and a powerful audio track.
The 1 hour long Neuro Linguistic Programming Audio uses unique advanced dual layer aural amplitude randomization methods to mask powerful positive affirmations mixed with binaural beats overlaid with the sounds of nature and soothing new age music. The Audio will help you improve or overcome your lack of self esteem.
Subliminal Power enables you to quickly change any area of your life, with absolutely no effort. There's no psychotherapy, no hypnosis, no meditation, no reading, no magic spells. Subliminal messages are positive affirmations sent directly to the subconscious mind, bypassing the more critical conscious mind. The subconscious then follows these commands to produce powerful and exciting change - quicker than anything you've ever seen before.

When a stranger visits his father's bookstore, Owen's ordinary life spirals out of control and right into a world he didn't even know existed. Owen believes the only gift he possesses is his ability to devour books, but he is about to be forced into a battle that will affect two worlds: his and the unknown world of the Lowlands. Perfect for readers ages 10 to 14 who enjoy a fast-paced story packed with action, fantasy, and humor.
