COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION Flying Dog Brewery will celebrate its 20th Anniversary a few months early on Friday, September 25th (the brewery turns 20 next year). The brewery will be sampling the new Raging Bitch Belgian-style India Pale Ale at the Flying dog Brats And Gonzo party in Denver that day as part of the Great American Beer Fest happening that week (unscramble the FBAG acronym to get GABF). More info about the fest can be found on the official Flying Dog blog. The beer also appeared on draft at this past weekends Gonzofest party. Al from Hop Talk was in attendance and reported on his blog, I understand its made from an augmented Snake Dog wort with an exclusive Belgian yeast strain (called Diablo) and dry-hopped with a load of Amarillo hops. Theyre calling it a Belgian IPA. It was really good. It had that hop bite from a big, bad American IPA with the banana and bubblegum from the Belgian yeast. Some may remember a beer called, Raging Bitch Birch Beer, that Flying Dog introduced on April 1st. Whereas that low-gravity series beer was a joke, this beer is anything but at 8% ABV (60 IBU). Propaganda from the label: Two inflammatory words one wild drink. Nectar imprisoned in a bottle. Let it out. It is cruel to keep a wild animal locked up. Uncap it. Release it stand back! Wallow in its golden glow in a glass beneath a white foaming head. Remember, enjoying a RAGING BITCH, unleashed, untamed, unbridled and in heat is pure GONZO!! It has taken 20 years to get from there to here. Enjoy! Ralph Steadman

Ministering to those behind bars, Orthodox Christian Prison Ministries (OCPM) was founded in 1991 by Metropolitan Philip of Blessed Memory, who asked highly experienced prison minister Fr. Duane Pederson to coordinate the effort. Now headed by Fr. Stephen Powley, OCPM is an agency of the Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of the United States of America, and it continues to build on Father Duane's vision of ministering to prisoners and their families by mobilizing the Church.
Recently, OCPM launched a revamped website, theocpm.org. A recent post in the new "Latest News" column, for instance, shares a letter received by OCPM by a prisoner serving a life sentence.
Other features include:

The Antiochian Archdiocese's Orthodox Christian Coalition for Healthy Youth (OCCHY) is a unique national alliance founded and supported by the Department of Youth and Parish Ministries of the Archdiocese. The ministry focuses on establishing, training and leading substance abuse prevention and intervention coalitions across America.
On May 22, 2014, OCCHY's active Cicero, Illinois Coalition hosted a Town Hall Meeting for parents and teens, titled "Underage Alcohol & Substance Prevention." Sponsored by the federal government's Substance Abuse & Mental Health Service Administration, the meeting featured law enforcement and mental health professionals, who presented talks about how to ensure safety and sobriety for teens. The presentations are available on YouTube and may be viewed on OCCHY's website.
Metropolitan Joseph with St. Vladimir's Dean The Very Rev. Dr. John Behr (L) and The Very Rev. Dr. Chad Hatfield (R)At its annual meeting on November 13–14, 2014, the Board of Trustees of St. Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary in Yonkers, NY elected His Eminence Metropolitan Joseph as Vice Chairman of the Board, to be effective immediately. His Beatitude Metropolitan Tikhon of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA) serves as the Board Chairman.
The Seminary's Dean, The Very Rev. Dr. John Behr, and Chancellor/CEO The Very Rev. Dr. Chad Hatfield, recognized Metropolitan Joseph's new position by presenting him with an icon of St. Vladimir during their visit to the Archdiocese Chancery in Englewood, NJ, on December 5. During that same meeting, the St. Vladimir's leaders also presented Patriarch John X with a check for $8000.00 designated for Syrian's suffering Christians. The gift was a tithe from the seminary's December 2 "Giving Tuesday" fund raising campaign.
Since its founding in 1938, St. Vladimir's has enjoyed a fruitful and reciprocal relationship with the Antiochian Archdiocese. About 16% of all of the seminary's alumni have gone on to serve in the Archdiocese, and most of today's North American Antiochian bishops are seminary alumns.

The service was followed by an open reception. NorthJersey.com reported that the evening "was a night of simple joy in the church's North Jersey community."
Staff writer Jeff Green noted that His Beatitude "John X spoke for about 20 minutes about building unity between the church in the U.S. and abroad, as well as about peace in the Middle East, notably war-devastated Syria.
"'We are one church, we are one community and the distances do not divide us, do not separate us,'" said the Patriarch.
Metropolitan Joseph's letter for Choir and Chanter Appreciation Sunday
Enthronement choir, with Dept. of Sacred Music Chair Chris HolweyThis Sunday is Choir and Chanter Appreciation Sunday in the Antiochian Archdiocese, which we observe every year on the second Sunday of December. It is a wonderful time to celebrate the ministry and commitment of our choir members and chanters, for all the time and devotion they give to our liturgical services throughout the year. As they sing and chant the hymns of our services, they help us in the worship of our God, and guide us as we all sing praises of joy to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The music is the means by which we pray, whether it be the quicker hymns of the Troparia and Kontakia, or the slower hymns of the Cherubic Hymn in Liturgy and Praises in Matins. Each set of music helps to set the tone for what we are praying and celebrating.
May God continue to bless each of our choir members and chanters in their ministry of love, and grant them many years of continued service to God's Holy Church for the lifting up of our hearts and minds to the heavenly places!
The month of December every year is designated as Order of St. Ignatius month, in conjunction with the feast day of St. Ignatius on December 20. The Order is the philanthropic arm of the Antiochian Archdiocese and one of its most vital lay ministries, under the guidance of Metropolitan Joseph and the Archdiocese Board of Trustees. Currently, there are nearly 3,000 active members supporting approximately 38% of the Archdiocese's budget, as well as a host of other worthy causes including: camping and college conference scholarships, married seminarian assistance, Antiochian Village, Teen SOYO Special Olympics, theological and religious education, clergy retirement, Project Mexico, International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC), The Treehouse Family Ministry, and Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF).
Dr. Elias K. Hebeka, the North America Vice-Chair for the Order, wrote in December 2012's The Word magazine that the Order's Governing Council "is a group of volunteers, elected or appointed members of our Antiochian Orthodox Archdiocese, that has the responsibility to make many of the important decisions for the Order.

See our enthronement section for all information regarding the Enthronement of Metropolitan Joseph and the visit of Patriarch John X.
On the eve of the Enthronement, Peter Smith of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette interviewed His Eminence Metropolitan Joseph and His Beatitude John X of Antioch and All the East for an article titled "Antiochan Orthodox installing new leader: N. American diocese celebrates its roots." Published on December 6, 2014, reporter Smith explained that those under 50 years of age cannot remember the last enthronement of an Antiochian metropolitan.
"This event means to us a lot — joy for the faithful in America and the homeland," Patriarch John was quoted as saying in the article, adding, "We are one family."
The Gazette reporter also noted that Metropolitan Joseph believes that he is "on equal footing with the newest of converts. 'Even though I was born in the faith, I have to convert to the faith daily by practicing the faith and doing virtuous and Christian actions,'" His Eminence explained.

Fr. John ChagnonFr. George DahdouhThis reflection was written by Fr. John Chagnon of St. George Antiochian Orthodox Church in St. Paul, MN, about a missions trip in which he and Fr. George Dahdouh of St. George Orthodox Church in Houston, TX travelled to Africa to minister to the Ugandan Orthodox Church. The article was originally published on November 25, 2014, in the Orthodox Christian Mission Center News.
Uganda is an Oregon-sized country in East Africa, 20 hours away by air and nine time zones ahead of us, and yet, by Faith we are family. Since just after World War II, canonical Orthodoxy has been part of the life of Uganda, spread not by missionaries but rather by Ugandans themselves who sought out and found the apostolic Christian Faith they were seeking, a Faith they chose rather than accept the faiths of the colonial powers that ruled them until the early 1960's.
The Ugandan Orthodox Church is led by His Eminence Metropolitan Jonah, himself the son of the leader of those who discovered Orthodoxy and brought it to Uganda. It is a young church, vital, and working in a culture where old and new are intertwined and some traditional brick houses have solar panels to make sure the cell phones are charged every night.
On November 29 and 30, 2014, His All-Holiness Bartholomew welcomed His Holiness Pope Francis to the Ecumenical Patriarchate during the Pope's three-day visit to Turkey. Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew had extended the invitation to the Pope during His Holiness' inaugural Mass in March 2013.
This visit followed a tradition established by Pope Francis' predecessors, Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI, to visit the Ecumenical Patriarchate for the Thronal Feast of St. Andrew, the first-called of the Apostles and founder of the Church of Constantinople.
In a joint declaration signed by the Pope Francis and Patriarch Bartholomew after the Divine Liturgy commemorating the Feast, the two noted that "Many of our brothers and sisters are being persecuted and have been forced violently from their homes." They continued, "It even seems that the value of human life has been lost, that the human person no longer matters and may be sacrificed to other interests. And, tragically, all this is met by the indifference of many."

Patriarch John X of Antioch, Syria, and Metropolitan Joseph will be available for brief personal interviews Friday Dec. 5 from 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. NO OTHER INTERVIEWS WILL BE GRANTED BEFORE OR AFTER ENTHRONEMENT EVENTS.

His Grace Bishop Thomas of the Diocese of Charleston, Oakland and the Mid-Atlantic, paid a special visit to the community at St. Tikhon's Orthodox Theological Seminary (STOTS) on Tuesday, November 18, 2014. His Grace has been a long-time supporter of St. Tikhon's, and came to meet with the students as well as to meet with STOTS Dean The Very Rev. Dr. Steven Voytovich.
His Grace toured the Seminary and Monastery grounds, and spoke to students during the lunch hour. "I always enjoy coming to St. Tikhon's because every time I visit I see people who are filled with joy," he commented. He also reminded those assembled of the importance of remaining joyful, and asked that they bring that same virtue out into the world as they minister to others for Christ.

The Liturgical Texts for the month of December, blessed by His Eminence Metropolitan Joseph, are now ready for clergy and laity to download from the Online Liturgical Guide.
This month, Orthodox Christians find themselves in the midst of the forty-day Fast in preparation of the celebration of the Nativity of our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ. Fr. Alexander Schmemann of blessed memory called this time of year the "Winter Pascha" because, as Fr. Thomas Hopko puts it, "He was worshipped by wise men that the whole of creation might adore Him in His triumph over death."
In anticipation of many parishes offering divine services on Thanksgiving Day, November 27, the Online Liturgical Guide now features Daily Vespers and Divine Liturgy Variables for the American holiday.
Warm Christmas Greetings and Best Wishes from our home to you and your beloved parishioners. May the joy and peace of this Holy Season shine in your hearts now and throughout the New Year!

Christ is in our Midst!
As has been the practice each year around this time, we are distributing the attached Sunday Liturgical Calendar for 2015 with a greeting from His Eminence Metropolitan Joseph.
This calendar will be posted on www.antiochian.org but we will not be sending a paper copy through regular mail in order to save some time and money.
This calendar conforms in every respect to the one which was recently sent to us from the offices of the Patriarchate of Antioch. Any discrepancy that may exist in other calendars occurred because they were published before the Patriarchal calendar was made available to us.
In preparation for the Enthronement of His Eminence Metropolitan Joseph and the related events planned for December 6–8, 2014, a new Media Information page to aid members of the press is accessible on Antiochian.org. Resources include basic descriptions and links for the Patriarchate of Antioch, the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, and the ancient Church of Antioch. Official portraits are available for Patriarch John X and Metropolitan Joseph, as well as biographical information and links to further information about Orthodox Christianity and Christians in the Middle East.
The Enthronement of Metropolitan Joseph will be held at St. Nicholas Cathedral in Brooklyn, New York. Dignitaries from around the world will be present, include hierarchs, clergy, diplomats, and many faithful. The event will be blessed with the presence of His Beatitude John X, Patriarch of Antioch and All the East, who will preside over the weekend.
Update, 11-26-14: With close to 800 people coming, the Gala Banquet for the enthronement is now sold out! Please do not send in checks for any more tickets or try to purchase online. If there is an emergency situation, please contact Fr. Thomas Zain at firstname.lastname@example.com. We thank you for your strong support of this event.
Renovations are underway at St. Nicholas Cathedral in Brooklyn, NY in preparation for the Enthronement of His Eminence Metropolitan Joseph. The Enthronement and related events will take place during the weekend of December 5 through 7, 2014, at St. Nicholas Cathedral in Brooklyn, New York. The actual enthronement will take place in conjunction with a Prayer of Thanksgiving on Saturday, December 6. We will be greatly blessed by the presence of His Beatitude John X, Patriarch of Antioch and All the East, who will preside during this weekend.

- Department of Justice offers funds to combat violence against Native American women
Department of Justice offers funds to combat violence against Native American women
By Rob Capriccioso
Story Published: Mar 27, 2009
WASHINGTON – The Department of Justice Violence Against Women Office announced March 24 it has a $23.6 million available as part of the recently passed stimulus law to offer tribes and their victims' advocates.
The office is now accepting applications to assist American Indian governments and tribal women's coalitions to combat violence against women in tribal communities. New applicants in the office's Tribal Governments Program can apply for up to $450,000 in grants; current grantees can request up to $1 million.
According to department officials, the Indian Tribal Governments Program will award $20.8 million to grantees and the Tribal Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Coalitions Program will award $2.8 million.
The application deadline for both programs, April 8, is quickly approaching, and officials said some tribes have already applied.
"These Recovery Act funds will assist tribal communities in responding to violent crimes against Indian women," said Thomas J. Perrelli, associate attorney general. "Providing new resources to address the needs of tribal communities is essential to improving our victim services."
"The Office on Violence Against Women is committed to improving the innovative responses to violence against Indian women," added Catherine Pierce, OVW's acting director.
The office was created in 1995 to administer financial and technical assistance to communities nationwide that are developing programs, policies and practices aimed at ending domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking.
Pierce expects the funds will create and stimulate additional staffing and resources for tribes.
The Tribal Governments Program has many goals. It is designed to decrease the number of violent crimes committed against American Indian and Alaska Native women; to help federally recognized tribes use their independent authority to respond to crimes committed against Indian women, and to ensure that those who commit violent crimes against Indian women are held accountable.
Program leaders expect tribes to use the funds for victims' vocational and other educational programs and associated costs including housing, childcare services, transportation, renovation of emergency shelters and hiring personnel to provide and support the direct services to victims.
The Tribal Coalitions Program, meanwhile, was created to increase the awareness of and enhance the responses to domestic violence and sexual assault against American Indian and Alaska Native women, at the tribal, federal and state levels.
Along those lines, the stimulus funds are expected to be used by tribes to hire new staff, service providers and professionals to provide technical assistance, coordinate access to services, and develop more comprehensive methods of assisting victims and their families.
Eligibility requirements, award periods, program scope, performance measures, selection criteria and review process are highlighted online.

Maholm moves up to face Phils in series opener
Lee, undefeated in last 11 outings, takes the hill for Phillies
Tim Hudson will have to wait another day to attempt to snap his 10-start winless streak.
Originally scheduled to start Friday's series opener opposite Phillies ace Cliff Lee, Hudson has been bumped back to Saturday, with left-hander Paul Maholm moved up a day.
Maholm, who was originally set to oppose Kyle Kendrick on Saturday, picked up his ninth win in his most recent start after limiting the D-backs to two runs in 6 2/3 innings Sunday, so he will be pitching on normal rest.
The veteran left-hander has gone 5-2 with a 4.66 ERA in 10 career starts against the Phillies, including tossing 5 2/3 scoreless innings on April 3.
Lee has been lights-out nearly all season, especially over the past two months. He has turned in 11 consecutive quality starts dating back to May 6, while pitching at least seven innings in each of those outings.
Lee is 7-0 with a 2.15 ERA during that span, improving his season totals to 9-2 with a 2.49 ERA.
Braves: Schafer to DL, Terdoslavich promoted
Atlanta on Thursday placed outfielder Jordan Schafer on the disabled list with a right ankle contusion and purchased Joey Terdoslavich's contract from Triple-A Gwinnett to take his place on the roster.
Schafer, who initially injured the ankle after fouling a pitch off it on June 26, had noticeably favored his right leg while running to first base in pinch-hit at-bats on Tuesday and Wednesday. He had yet to play in the field since suffering the injury.
As for Terdoslavich, the 24-year-old had never previously been called to the big leagues. Atlanta's No. 14-ranked prospect according to MLB.com, Terdoslavich hit .318 with 18 homers in 85 games with Gwinnett.
Terdoslavich struck out swinging on a 2-2 count while pinch-hitting in the eighth inning of the Braves' 4-3 loss to the Marlins on Thursday night.
Phillies: Revere finding his stride
Following a slow start to the season, center fielder Ben Revere has seemingly settled into a groove at the plate over the last two months.
He hit just .200 in April while notching only one extra-base hit, five stolen bases and nine runs scored. Since May 1, Revere is batting .333 (63-for-189) over 57 games, to go along with 15 steals and 23 runs scored.
"It's just that the hits are starting to fall in," Revere said. "I've been kind of doing the same stuff. Usually April is not my best month, but most hitting coaches know that if you are a good enough hitter to get your confidence up and your average up, and it's all about just buying time and getting your hits."
Worth noting
• Brandon Beachy will travel with the Braves to Philadelphia, setting the earliest time for him to begin a rehab assignment back to late next week. Gonzalez said that pitching coach Roger McDowell wants Beachy to throw at least one more bullpen session and to see how the hurler feels in the following days before sending him on an assignment.
• Atlanta lost two straight games to Miami to end the two teams' midweek series after the Braves previously defeated the Marlins in eight straight contests.

I don't shed nearly as much as I once did. And my hair looks a lot fuller and I have less 'bald' spots. My hair is very thin, fine, oily and stick straight, so bald spots are pretty noticeable. With this product I'm comfortable with my hair and feel like it's finally how I want it to look.

However, as I have read in other reviews of the product, the packaging (spray nozzle) is defective and does not dispense. A product cannot be effective if it can't be dispensed and used.

June K.Anderson, SCHairDark BrownFine or Thin HairReally Good Stuff!!This spray treatment is great! I have very fine and thin hair (scalp shows throughout my whole head of hair somewhat). The treatment does not weigh my hair down. I follow this with the ladies minoxidil. I have seen improvement (a lot less hair falling out, and a re-growth of hair along hairline at my forehead). I wish they made a version like the mens with the minoxidil already added to it. I have tried nearly everything on the market, and have found this one to be the best so far. I also use their shampoo!posted Dec 3, 2010Link to this post
ElizabethHairLight BrownFine or Thin HairProved Ineffective..I'm a woman in my early thirties with very fine hair. And over the past couple years my hair has significantly thinned in certain places. After reading up on Spectral RS, I decided to try it out. I used the product for 3 months in combination with some hair vitamins, but there was no noticeable improvement. I did see a small bit of new hair growth, but it seemed to break off at a certain point.
I took a little break and decided to give it another try. This time around I was very dedicated on taking my hair vitamins and spectral's directed amount every day. I did this for another 3 months, only to have my hair even worse off then when I started. It had thinned so much I worried about bald patches. On top of that, the formula left the hair extremely sticky, making my thin hair even flatter and dirtier looking.
So, I stopped using it and switched back to some nioxin products I'd used in the past. The spectral DS might work much better since it has the minoxidil in it, but the spectral RS has proved pretty ineffective for me.posted Sep 20, 2010Link to this post -
CharlieSCUse In Conjunction With Spectral DncI have been trying many different products over the years. 38yrs old guy. This combination has worked well for me. I use Spectral DNC 2x per day and let it dry for 15-20 minutes then I apply Spectral RS 2x per day. DS Labs provided me the info. Unfortunately this takes time and money, however it really works. I have been doing this combo for 2.5-3 years. I recently said let me try to stop using Spectral RS and just use Spectral DNC due to time and money. My hair count decreased and more hair fell out. I highly recommend utilizing both products. With this combo I have retained and grew my hair in many places. In addition I use the Lexington Lasercomb-3x per week.posted Feb 9, 2010Link to this post
SalFlorida , MiamiGreat Co However Use The One With MonoxidilI like this co I have used their other brand with Minoxodil which is sold through this site it works GREAT . This non minoxodil type doesnt work. My brother in law tried this for 3 months saw nothing than he tried type I use same co but with added minoxidil and BOOM new hair growth not just stopped his hair loss but new growth. I love there brand with minoxidol its way way better than weak 5% rogaine which barely works.posted May 27, 2008Link to this post

Former Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis speaks with reporters in Baltimore, Monday, March 11, 2013, before a screening of a new film released on DVD that chronicles the team's championship NFL football season. The Ravens were Super Bowl XLVII champions after defeating the San Francisco 49ers 34-31. / Patrick Semansky, AP
NEW YORK - Are the Baltimore Ravens in position to repeat as champions after winning a Super Bowl during Ray Lewis' final season in the NFL? Unlikely, the retired linebacker said.
"It's going to be very hard, after you lose that much chemistry," Lewis told USA TODAY Sports. "But who knows? It's unpredictable, as always. Hopefully, they try to pull enough together, use their youth and try to make a run. But it's hard to try that formula. That formula usually doesn't work."
Lewis is visiting the city during NFL draft week to promote his partnership with United Athletes Foundation and their charity efforts in America's "underserved communities."
Baseball Hall of Famer Hank Aaron and basketball Hall of Famer Julius Erving are members of the organization, and Lewis said he was starstruck when the pair first called on him.
"I'm humbled to be a part of anything that they do, much less to look down on my phone and having them call me," he said. "I'm like, 'Oh, my God, it's Hank Aaron!' "
"This is my next phase, and I want to make people happy. I want to make real change in this world."
Lewis said he will begin his new job as an NFL analyst for ESPN in late July. He said he's more than ready for on-camera work, and he has no shortage of opinions - and he's not afraid of controversy.
For instance, don't expect Lewis to endorse the NFL's efforts to make the game safer, including a new rule that bans running backs from using the crown of the helmet to initiate contact.
"I don't think it's fair," he said. "I think the best way to take care of the game is to let the game take care of itself. All these rules won't take care of the game. In fact, they're going to confuse more people than anything."
In addition to broadcasting, the post-football opportunities for the 13-time Pro Bowler have been plenty, he said, but he is taking his time and not taking on too much.
"It was never like, 'What am I going to do?' It was more, 'What will I not do?' " he said. "I had all these opportunities coming from so many different directions. And I told my team, 'We're going to go slow, take our time, and get involved with the right people.' "

Dubai shopping offers amazing opportunities. The age-old souks, ultra-modern shopping malls and promise of tax-free prices redefine the whole concept of retail therapy. Dubai is known as the shopping capital of the Middle East, and the best bargains are generally in the souks.

No wonder that for many, Dubai shopping is practically a way of life. In January, Dubai hosts the biggest shopping and entertainment festival of the year.

thanks for the information correction, i'm outdated and was only going from what i'd heard last night.
looking forward to a fixed cfw, and hope there hasn't been too many bricks
thanks for the information correction, i'm outdated and was only going from what i'd heard last night.
looking forward to a fixed cfw, and hope there hasn't been too many bricks
Somehow i don't get it... this is a CFW and yet we Need to be on 3.55??? why is that??? if you can upgrade like OFW why do you Need to be on 3.55? i'm on 3.56 and never downgraded... what would happen if i upgrade to this CFW?
i honestly have no idea, i wouldn't advise trying it until you've checked with someone else. i doubt it would work and worse still could brick your ps3.
time to go watch a few dvds, didn't dare hire blurays in case they wont play again like the dictator.
sometimes taking a step backwards is the right direction. lol
Last edited by G Sus; 10-23-2012 at 04:07 PM Reason: Automerged Doublepost
anyone have scetools or ps3tools updated with these keys until a brickfree 4.25 comes out?
if i understand correctly, you need to be on 3.55 cause it's the last firmware with something unpatched that allows cfw to be installed. 3.56 and above have some sort of check in it that hasn't exactly been exploited yet.
i guess the best advice right now would be to stay away from this firmware unless you have a flasher cause this seems to be bricking as many as wanikoko and there's a fix in the works.
I am on 4.25 Official, how do I install this without a downgrade dongle? Do I need to be on 3.55 to flash with the new CFW?
JOshISPoser you can use this one that is PS3 SCETool v0.2.9 with Keys for LV0 already included: http://www.ps4news.com/ps3-hacks-jai...ates-incoming/
solidtudor, read the freaking thread. YOU CAN'T INSTALL THIS UNLESS YOU ARE ON 3.55 FW. You can't get back to 3.55 without a flasher.
i'm wondering if this is causing bricks cause people aren't reading it.
there's only one dude that i can look up to that has gotten a brick. for everyone else, they could have a spoofer or something installed. judging by the questions, people aren't reading past the title...
oh, and thanks for the tools. i should be able to patch the game i've been waiting to play a while.
Last edited by JOshISPoser; 10-23-2012 at 04:40 PM
Hello everyone, I just tried the upgrade and got bricked. My PS3 now turn on but give no signal. I had a CFW 3.55 ( not sure which one) so I tried to install this through XMB. I know it was stupid but I wasn't able to access the recovery mode for some reason.
Any advice on how to proceed?
JOshISPoser it's been confirmed, even by Rogero himself, that It can occur bricks even when you do everything right.
Dongles won't work, so you can't get into FSM. Your only solution is flasher, which can be quite challenging for inexperienced people and are quite expensive.

America's Cup: Luna Rossa opt for initial base alongside Artemis
Wed, 6 Mar 2013
Various news sources in San Francisco are reporting that the Italian America's Cup Challenger, Luna Rossa, will be moving into the disused sea plane base at Alameda.
They will join the base's other tenant, Artemis Racing (SWE) but working out of another hangar.
One source reports that the team have signed a three month initial lease, with an option to stay for a further year.
Initially all teams were supposed to be based in a central area in San Francisco, in Piers 30-32, however due to a combination of slow decision making, budget cuts and other inertia, the original proposal for a single venue was overturned in October 2012.
That decision meant that the teams were free to chose their locations. Subsequently a number of sponsor and fan facilities were shifted to Marina Green from their location on Piers 30-32
Luna Rossa Challenge sources confirmed that the team had leased space, but this was only to buy some time, and allow the team to get established in San Francisco ahead of a move to Pier 30-32 in June as planned.
Sail-World was told that there had been no real changes to Luna Rossa's original plans, and they are currently sailng from their base in Auckland, New Zealand and doing race training with Emirates Team NZ.
Emirates Team NZ are still intending to ship straight to Piers 30-32, and are expected to arrive in late May.

There is only one way to buy any diamond, it must be certified. These diamond earrings while small, show big because the cut, coolr and clarity were as described in the legitimate certification that came with them. I had purchase a larger pair from Macy's only to bring them back. Thery were non certified and when not under the bright lights intended to make them look good they proved to be junk at home. The Overstock CERTIFIED diamonds were exactly as expected. I even had them graded by my own buddy who owns a jewelry store and he couldnt match the price for quality. Great job Overstock.
Not big but they stand out and make a statement like I like it
These earing are very pretty, preetier then I expected. I bought them for my 2nd hole and now I am going to buy another pair for my daughter. A great buy!
very nice. I have one happy wife! I enjoyed card that came with the diamonds to verify they are certified.
These earrings were a Christmasgift and very well received. A great buy compared to jewerly stores and big box chain stores.
The earrings were exacting what I wanted. Just the perfect size for the second ear piecing.
Earrings arrived on time and they looked great ! looked to be good quality
I am so glad I ordered these beautiful and feminine earrings. I've received so many compliments on them and wearing them in the top hole of my ears really catches the facets of the diamonds. I am not too surprised but the overall quality of these earrings is outstanding. The size really enhances the diamonds....any larger ones may have cheapened the appearance. Sometimes a smaller size like I purchased, 1/2 carat, makes the total product gorgeous.
these are not worth the money by any means, you can definetly find nicer for less money. the on line pictures and description made it sound like a great find and must be had im am really not satified and i buy off this overstock site alot! for the price these earring are not the quality or the buy they should be. i bought nicer paior one day before x-mas for 60.00 less!!
Got the earrings for a birthday present for my 15 year old daughter. She waqs very excited when she opened the box

J.P. Morgan Funds objective box is based on the Fund's overall targeted capitalization and valuation range(s) as described in the Fund's prospectus.
The Fund may invest a portion of its securities in small-cap stocks. Small-capitalization funds typically carry more risk than stock funds investing in well-established "blue-chip" companies since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure. Historically, smaller companies' stock has experienced a greater degree of market volatility than the average stock. The Fund is aggressively managed and, therefore, is subject to greater fluctuation than an investment in a growth fund investing in proven growth equities.
1Please refer to the prospectus for additional information about cut-off times. The quoted performance of the Fund includes performance of a predecessor fund/share class prior to the Fund's commencement of operations. Please refer to the current prospectus for further information. The Russell 2000 Index is an unmanaged index, which measures the performance of the 2000 smallest stocks (on the basis of capitalization) in the Russell 3000 Index. The performance of the index does not reflect the deduction of expenses associated with a fund, such as investment management fees. By contrast, the performance of the Fund reflects the deduction of the fund expenses, including sales charges if applicable. Investors can not invest directly in an index. The performance of the Lipper Small-Cap Core Funds Index includes expenses associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. These expenses are not identical to the expenses charged by the Fund. Total return assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions and reflects the deduction of any sales charges, where applicable. Performance may reflect the waiver of a portion of the Fund's advisory or administrative fees for certain periods since the inception date. If fees had not been waived, performance would have been less favorable. ©2015, American Bankers Association, CUSIP Database provided by the Standard & Poor's CUSIP Service Bureau, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

ThunderForm enclosures fill the nooks and crannies of your vehicle with low tones that stand out, but their factory look blends right in. MTX engineers evaluate the "sonic signatures" of top-selling vehicles so they can design ThunderForms as custom acoustic matches. Each ThunderForm fits and blends inconspicuously into your vehicle, so you get great bass without losing any space. They're made of high-density polyethylene resin to curb resonances they deliver bass that's tight, hard-hitting, and way down low. The airtight enclosure provides the correct internal volume to yield optimum bass response. This ThunderForm fits under the rear seat of your 2007-up Chevy Silverado Crew Cab pickup.

For a Canadian band, there are a few ways to make you feel like you've made it. One is having the opportunity to embark on a world tour. Two is getting love from Pitchfork. And three is a Polaris shortlist nomination. Of course, there is a fourth, but the chances of it happening are slim to nil.
Vancouver's Japandroids have achieved the first three: touring the world over, earning Best New Music from P4K twice, and making the Polaris top ten in 2012. And while that might seem like the world is their oyster, hockey fans can make the dreams of David Prowse and Brian King come true.
The duo's single "The House That Heaven Built" has been nominated for Project NU2, the official Vancouver Canucks hunt for a new entrance song. According to the Canucks organization, the team received 2,853 submissions that were narrowed down to just six.
Also up for the honour are two other Vancouver bands, Nickelback and Static in the Stars, as well as Guns 'N Roses, DJ MEG and Volbeat. Seeing as King and Prowse are known Canucks die-hards, well, you might as well give it to them.
Check out the very convincing Japandroids entry below, and then make your vote here. Let's make their dream come true. It would basically be the equivalent of the EGOT for a Canadian band.

Voted one of the "7 Wonders of Illinois," this pristine park offers beautiful trails for hiking and walking only. Picnic areas are also available. While at the park be sure to visit the Watch Tower Lodge that houses a large reception area and the John Hauberg Indian Museum.
