Convicted killer allegedly attacked by fellow inmate
According to a Grafton County Superior Court grand jury indictment released Friday, Benjamin Dwyer Allen, of West Lebanon, who will be 30 on Tuesday, is charged with assaults by prisoners for an altercation last month with LaCombe.
Allen, on Jan. 19, "punched and kicked Robert R. LaCombe in the head and/or body," according to the indictment. The charge is one of two similar Class B felony indictments against Allen that the grand jury handed up at its February session. Allen is also accused of punching inmate Benjamin Goodwin in the head and/or face and/or stomach on Nov. 3 last year.
LaCombe has begun a term of 55 years to life for the shooting deaths of a young Grafton couple - Will Hatch and Crystal Farnham - who befriended the jobless LaCombe, feeding, housing and otherwise supporting him over some four months.
When the couple finally had their fill of the long-term guest and asked him to leave, he turned on them and killed them in a vicious 2011 attack at their home that involved multiple shootings of each victim, a state prosecutor said Thursday.
Before he was sentenced Thursday and transported to Concord, LaCombe had to face the verbal wrath of a number of his victims' family members who were given the opportunity to speak in superior court. None of them thought his sentence was adequate.
If he meets behavioral conditions in the coming decades, LaCombe could get 15 years taken off his 55-year minimum sentence. If that happens, and even with the credit he got for nearly two years in the Grafton County jail, the 26-year-old LaCombe would be around 60 when he got out.

112th Mid-Term Humane Scorecard: The Humane Society Legislative Fund has posted the final version of the 2011 Humane Scorecard, where you can track the performance of your federal lawmakers on key animal protection issues during last year. We rated legislators based on their voting behavior on measures such as agribusiness subsidies, lethal predator control, and the Endangered Species Act; their cosponsorship of priority bills on puppy mills, horse slaughter, animal fighting, and chimps in research; their support for funding the enforcement of animal welfare laws; and their leadership on animal protection. All of the priority bills whose cosponsorships we're counting enjoy strong bipartisan support; in the House, each of the four now has more than 150 cosponsors.
The Humane Scorecard is not a perfect measuring tool, but creating some reasonable yardstick and allowing citizens to hold lawmakers accountable is central to our work. When the Humane Scorecard comes out each year, it helps clarify how the animal protection movement is doing geographically, by party affiliation, and in other categories. It helps us chart our course for animals by seeing where we have been effective, and where we need to improve.

I love this ring. My husband and I bought our own Christmas presents this year. I bought this for myself. It really sets off my engagement ring and plain wedding band. I am enjoying it so much.
cute and pretty. but small than what i thought, so i bought another one make double ring. it looks lot better.
Just what we wanted. Sizing was true to form. Clarity of diamonds was wonderfull. Mint condition. Would recomend to anyone. Pricing was good too. Checked at local jewlery stores and they were more expencive. Even checked on Craigslist!
This ring looks just as good in reality as the photo. Love the look/style and the price which is (seriously) a small fraction of what mortar and brick stores were charging for vastly inferior rings. Very, very happy to have found this.
The band is somewhat rounded inside and is very comfy. There are 9 diamonds, so each is 1/9th ct, and that is not very big. However, they are channel set, so there is back-to-back sparkle. I was originally going to return them and try for no more that 5 stones per 1 cttw ring, but since I had ordered two, I decided to keep them and use as a border around a third "big bling ring". It has worked out well. Having said that, I should add that I wear size 81/2-9, and these facts are based on my hand being larger.
I love this ring. I bought it as an anniversary band. I ended up buying a second one to replace my wedding band. The ring looks exactly as pictured on the site. The diamonds look nice and are very secure. Very good value.
The presentation was a little smaller than I expected (thought it would be wider) but it looks very nice. I have long slender fingers and this is a great ring, if I could I would get another one and it would be FABULOUS... but it's pretty much perfect the way it is. I can not say enough. It does get noticed. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT.

LynnMtl CanadaHairRelaxed HairMeehhI purchased this product hoping it would minimize breakage when I flat iron. Having relaxed hair, keeping my hair moisturized is an eternal battle and this product does very little compared to my current cream heat protector. It does make my hair silky and smooth but it also weights my hair down, making it limp, lifeless and static-y after straightening. I will not purchase this product again.posted Mar 4, 2011Link to this post
ShayliPortland, OregonHairLight BrownNormal HairOily HairFine or Thin HairWorks Great, Smell...not So MuchI had been using some type of Nexxus hair protectant for a while but was making an order on Folica so I decided to give this a try.First off, this smells really weird. It doesn't smell awful, but I usually hold my breath when I spray it. And for a few hours after, everytime my hair fell on my face I could smell and I was almost embarrassed because I didn't like the smell.
But for the results it delivers, it's great. I feel like it sealed my ends a lot more when I would run my flat iron over it. I will probably buy another bottle, I just wished it smelled better.posted Jan 31, 2011Link to this post -

KimLove ItI bought this when I bought my Babybliss on line. When I ran out, I was lazy and tried other brands I could find at the local store (chi etc.) I ended up throwing most away and wasting money as they did not compare. I was spoiled. Living in Houston with high humidity, you know what fly away frizzy is all about. Just a few pumps of this and it helps keep my hair moisturized. I use my flat iron and hair dryer daily and flat iron sometimes multiple times a day. Do not over spray or it will give you a greasy, heavy feel. I have used the color protecting boost as well. I have learned my lesson and will order before running out.posted Jun 23, 2010Link to this post

Basic Information:Name: Fuguki SuikazanLooks:
Gender: Male
Clan:Seven Swordsmen of the Mist(Not really a clan though)By far the tallest and largest member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Fuguki's most distinctive trait was his fish-like appearance. He had small round eyes and like all the known members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, sharp jagged teeth. He had long, orange hair that reached into his back with some pinned up at the top. He also had six green stripes on his face. Attire-wise he wore the standard striped jumpsuit of Kirigakure, a black outfit over it as well as a white cloak/robe over it and Samehada strapped over his shoulder via a large belt decorated by a tassel. He also wore the Kirigakure forehead protector and standard shinobi sandals, and as with all the swordsmen of the previous generation, he had bandages wrapped loosely around his neck.Personality:Fuguki seemed to believe that protecting invaluable information from the wrong hands to be more important than the lives of comrades. He preached this to Kisame, telling him that he should take any action necessary in order to stop information about their village falling into enemy hands. Ironically, Fuguki betrayed his village, selling information to the enemies; this crime, coupled with Fuguki dropping his guard during a meeting, led to his near death at Kisame's hands.
Village Information:
Village of Birth:Kirigakure
Village of Aliance: Kirigakure
Rank/Chakra Info:Ninja Rank:Sannin
Speciality:||Earth Release||Genjutsu||Samehada techniques||
~S Rank~
Other Training
|| 萬 Ninjutsu:~Mastered~|| 拳 Taijutsu: B Rank || 根 Genjutsu: ~Mastered~ || 寄 Summoning: Giant Otters || Customs||
Background Information:
At some point in time, Fuguki assigned his subordinate Kisame, to the secret Cypher Division to serve as a bodyguard, ordering him to protect his comrades. However, he stressed that the codes that were important to the village are worth far more than the lives of his comrades. With this set of priorities, Kisame resolved to massacre his own team-mates when they were in danger of falling into the hands of Ibiki Morino during a mission to protect such valuable information.
Later, Fuguki was revealed to have been leaking information to enemies, and was attacked by Kisame when he let his guard down during a meeting,Kisame defeated Fuguki and thought he was dead.Kisame then, became a member of the Seven Swordsmen, Yagura's direct subordinate and Tobi's accomplice.
Other Information:
- Samehada:
(鮫肌; Literally meaning "Shark Skin") is a large sentient sword, comparable in size to the Kubikiribouchou. It is described as "the most terrifying of all the Seven Swordsmen's blades" and even earned the title of "greatsword" (大刀, daitou), further adding to its fearsome reputation. After Kisame Hoshigaki killed its former wielder Fuguki Suikazan, the blade came into his possession. The two had a long history together and during this period, confronted various renowned shinobi on several occasions, with their pairing leading Kisame to become regarded as a "Tailed Beast without a Tail" (尾を持たない尾獣, O o Motanai Bijuu). During Kisame's initial fight with Killer B, Samehada grew fond of the taste of Bee's particular chakra and ultimately betrayed Kisame. After Kisame's death, Samehada actually cries for him, not only bestowing the blade with even more lifelike characteristics but also, standing as a testament to the bond shared between the two. Samehada also can function as some kind of "backpack" as it holds several of Bee's swords and it contained Kisame himself for a long while.
Though most of the time wrapped in bandages, Samehada's construction is atypical in that its actual blade is comprised from a series of downward facing scales running along the entirety of its length until its hilt, at the base of which is a small skull. Samehada grows larger in proportion to the amount of chakra it absorbs, causing its scales to become so long that they ultimately resemble shark fins and its mouth, located at the tip of the blade, to become even more pronounced. As the blade is made up of scales, it inflicts injuries through shredding or shaving what it comes into contact with, rather than just cutting the object in question. This flaying effect is similar to a shark's skin, hence the sword's name. While it ordinarily remains rigid, its hilt is able to stretch and bend to great extent, allowing the weapon to be used like a flail. Bee even used Samehada as a javelin with the intent of having it biting his opponent. Samehada is unique for being a sentient weapon that gains nourishment from the chakra of others and as such, the blade is at its happiest when engorged with chakra that possesses both a distinctive and pleasant flavour. It apparently greatly enjoys Killer B's chakra since it tastes like octopus. However, it has shown displeasure towards fire-type chakra because it's far too hot. Being capable of conscious thought, Samehada chooses its own user, an exclusive process that has often resulted in it being thought of as notoriously picky, which is clearly shown in the fact that it only goes after the ones with delicious chakra. If someone it disapproves of attempts to wield it, spikes protrude from the handle in order to force them to release their grasp, at which point Samehada will make efforts to return to its chosen owner. Although it continually consumes the chakra of its owner, her largest meals come from fights, wherein it absorbs the chakra of the opposition instead. Such an ability allows Samehada to literally slice through an opponent's techniques, in spite of whether the chakra has been transformed or not, and even prevent them from being performed by absorbing all of the necessary chakra. This was illustrated when Killer B was reduced back to Version 1 after initially being in Version 2. However, it seems to be unable to automatically absorb ambient chakra. Samehada has also the ability to transfer the chakra it has absorbed to the wielder, so it can be used to either regenerate injuries or replenish their chakra reserves. Kisame goes one step further with this fusion by completely merging with Samehada.
- Earth Release:
Due to Fuguki's high level of mastery over earth techniques, he can perform all earth techniques with only a single hand seal.- Weapons
Fuguki carries a variety of weapons. In his ninja pouch, he carries shuriken, kunai, explosive tags, flash and smoke bombs, ninja wire, and all the other items essential for a ninja.Fuguki also carries two folded Windmill Shuriken in his backpack. He also carries a basic katana.The basic ninja tools are concealed in multiple pockets and pouches located around his waist.

Learning web design should be creative and inspiring!
And the truth is it doesn't have to be complicated. Imagine having unlimited access to clear, step-by-step video courses.
In a matter of hours you could be on your way to mastering…
- WordPress
- Photoshop
- Dreamweaver
- E-Commerce
How awesome would that be?
After all, web design should be fun and creative, right? Until now, it's been overcomplicated and taught by dull, uninspiring instructors.
There's no shortage of books and courses, but how do you know which ones will give you what you want, and which ones are a waste of time and money?
"It's because of Geoff that I have a 3pm appointment today with my first client, who I'll be designing a website for. It's because of Geoff that I can now call myself a web designer and can get paid for it. I feel more passionate about Geoff and his teaching than I do about my university, which I spent A LOT more money on. His courses are packed full of knowledge that I can put to use right away. Thanks Geoff!" -Patrick
Hey, I'm Geoff Blake. I create online video courses to help people gain serious web skills, helping them to expand their business, develop their projects…and yeah, make more money!
Award-winning teacher, 15+ years experience I've helped thousands of people build businesses, develop new skills, become more indispensable, and earn much more money. I'd love to help you get on the right path!

Despises bad teaching It's distressing that there's so much junk out there. Don't you find that frustrating? Even big institutions and companies are producing pretty poor stuff…Teachers who can't teach, overpriced courses that don't deliver on their promises, and confused students who likely would've been better off on their own. I think it's ethically wrong to charge people money for such lazy, poor quality books and courses. Don't you? Honestly, it pisses me off. Bad teaching sucks!
As you might guess, I'm very passionate about this stuff. I love teaching! I love helping people reach those "a-ha!" moments where everything suddenly clicks, that's awesome. And having some good fun along the way makes for some delightful learning, too.
So whatcha waitin' for?…
"After having a bad experience with a web designer and failing in my search for a class or a simple easy book I got lucky and found Geoff's videos. They're so well done, simple, clear, not too fast, not too slow. After watching them I was able to get hard to work on my own projects. I fired my web designer and saved tons of money. Geoff is also the nicest, coolest, honest, and most helpful guy you could want. I can't say enough good things!" -Brigitte
Truthfully though, I really can't help you if…
You're not ready to invest in your long-term skills.
You think endlessly trawling the web is a good strategy for building serious web skills.
You're unwilling to change your mindset and approach to web design.
You're not willing to nail down the fundamentals and develop a deep, strong foundation of skills for yourself.
"Geoff's expert teaching has guided me through the journey of learning web design. I started out as a complete beginner, but with Geoff's excellent training, I graduated at the top of my 3-year college program in just 2 years, which I could not have done otherwise (in fact, his training was to a much higher standard than my school's). Now after learning so much with Geoff, I've gained a full time job as a web designer. Geoff helped get me that break, which I'm sure without his help simply wouldn't have happened." -Ian

A-Rod To Start Rehab Assignment In Charleston
TAMPA, FL (AP) -- New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez is set to play his first minor league game on a rehabilitation assignment.
The Yankees said Monday that Rodriguez is scheduled to start Tuesday night for Single-A Charleston in the South Atlantic League. Rodriguez is supposed to play at least three innings against Rome during the game in South Carolina. Rodriguez has been working out at the Yankees' spring training complex in Florida this year while recovering from surgery on his left hip on Jan. 16. The three-time AL MVP turns 38 later this month. Rodriguez has 647 career home runs. The Yankees have struggled this season while Rodriguez and several other stars have been on the disabled list. |

Apr 20, 2015I friggin' love this movie! This has got to be my absolute favorite animated movie I have ever seen! The animation was fantastic, the characters were very well developed, and it's just plain hysterical! This movie has plenty of memorable moments and so many video game references, it's mind numbing! This movie literally describes why we love gaming and I wouldn't have it any other way!

Jan 19, 2015What a movie, I mean it's fantastic, so original. Who could come up with such a great idea. I love the charters, and the voice acting was great. This is well worth the watch, with the kids or course, works of cinematic genius are best when they are family friendly. Here is a great example of such.
Jan 7, 2015"One of the most original films in years" indeed! I loved every bit of creativity that Disney has placed into this wholly beautiful and charming film, especially with the puns involved (Nesquik sand, LOL)!
Dec 22, 2014this is the best animated movie i have seen so far. i just loved that character called veneloppe. this movie has got all you want. i just want another movie sequel to this. i give it a perfect 10. some stupid **** gave it a 0/10 which is totally unfair. don't hear those dumb **** who doesn't know how to enjoy a movie. this is a movie one should never miss.
Dec 5, 2014Amazing movie, loved everything in Wreck-It Ralph. It's funny, has an excellent storyline and can be enjoyed by anyone big or small. I also like the way the use video games in the film, to also have a game feel in the movie. One of Disney's greatest movies of all time to me. It has everything you would ever want in a film. Well done, Disney.
Oct 27, 2014The colors, the video game references, the characters, the story, the music, the voice acting, the animation. This movie has all the ingredients to fall in love with and that cute little girl from Sugar Rush is sweeter than sugar itself. This is one of the greatest Disney animation I think and yeah it is.
Oct 26, 2014this is the ultimate gamers movie. it pays the greatest respect to the games it's referencing and uses it's arcade setting in amazing ways
i love the story and characters especially Ralph in which john c riley gives one of his best performances and Vanellope who is expertly played by sarah silverman
seriously go and see this movie you won't regret it -
Oct 17, 2014I'm a gamer, this movie, just.. oh wow, i'm just waiting for Wreck-it-Ralph 2, those nostalgic video game characters, that storyline, This is the best Disney movie.
Gamers, watch this. -
Oct 8, 2014Boasted by a clever script, and remarkable performances by John C. Reilly and Sarah Silverman, this nostalgic animated excellence could not be any better.
Aug 24, 2014I didn't watch cartoons for a long time, but oh am I glad I got myself to watch this one. Mostly funny jokes, good soundtrack, LOTS of cameos and homages to different video game characters, and the absolutely adorable Vanellope all make up an extremely solid cartoon which you must not miss.
Aug 9, 2014The most miss leading movie of all time. A fairly passionless, pretty dull movie with an unlikable lead character, a clumsier story, poorly written bad guy, bad pacing and it just trying to get fans of video games into chimeras to get cold hard cash which just makes my skin cruel. Trying to distract you from it's gaming references from all the very big problems.
May 25, 2014
May 22, 2014I Love Video Games so much! This is one of them. some them I know. Hero's Duty? Good joke for that! HA! Love that Joke! Other jokes like when ralph goes into the chocolate river and does that darth Vader Breath. Nice!!!

Apr 24, 2014Wreck-it Ralph is one of the most original, sweet, and funny Disney movies to come out in years. Everything in the movie is colorful and dazzling, and it takes you back to the retro era of video gaming. It's message and heart are the best parts about it.
Apr 18, 2014This was silly Epic! I was surprised to find myself loving everything about it. It`s great in every way. It`s funny and has a good message. The characters are easy to like and root for.
Mar 29, 2014
Mar 15, 2014i love wreck it ralph its everything i seen in an animated film but not like this . there should be more violent but still loved it . but sugar rush is for gay girls and boys which i hated in this film
Mar 12, 2014Let me tell you: I am not a fan of Disney movies at all, but this one right here, is one that just can't be ignored. Wreck It Ralph is one of the most cleverly written and created films ever made by Disney, possibly even further than just Disney.
Mar 8, 2014This is a clever, entertaining video-game based movie. It's also funny, touching, and I had a lot of fun with this film. What I would have liked to have seen more were characters based of from video games in reality. But other than that, this movie was just great.
Mar 4, 2014The concept and animation is just brilliant. Although the constant cameos and popular references, the occasional over-use of wordplay and a slight lack of emotional connection drag it down slightly, especially when compared to other recent Disney entries, it's still a great family film.
Feb 5, 2014
Jan 23, 2014An excellent tribute to games that have passed, Ralph features an outstanding voice cast, amazing visuals, and hilarious video game references that will make anyone smile.
Dec 31, 2013Um das animações mais divertida dos estúdios Dinsey, e com certeza uma das minha favoritas. História, cenários, efeitos sons são bem trabalhado e personagens divertidos.
Dec 29, 2013This movie is my most absolute number 1 favourite disney movie, its cleaver, funny and IT HAS GAME CHARACTERS IN IT! which is brilliant because this title has limitless potential for future sequals, its got something for everyone you could possibly want in a Disney film, I never used to be a huge fan but now I am!
Dec 27, 2013Manichean characters are some typical things in Disney features but in "Wreck-It Ralph" tries to call into question this. Neither good people are so good neither bad people are so bad. "Tangled" is good, "Wreck-It Ralph" is better.
Dec 26, 2013A surprisingly brilliant film, has plenty of both funny and sad parts, as per usual from Disney, and as a gamer the multitude of game references were nice.
Dec 21, 2013At first, just not convincing, but after half hour of movie, he turns, the characters take you, and come on, a happy ending once in a while is always good.
Dec 11, 2013I love this movie! It's great for kids and adults.(I'm 17-years-old). The voice acting is phenomenal and the animation is terrific! There was never a point in the movie where i felt bored, it was pretty funny and it had a heart-touching story line!! I SERIOUSLY recommend for people of all ages to watch this movie.
Dec 9, 2013
Nov 28, 2013Wreck it Ralph is easily one of the best animations i have ever seen, the idea behind it is so creative and so beautiful that keeps you in excitement and anticipation the entire time, it's a class A movie with all it's element, from the voices to the story to the picture. and this one deserved the Oscar for best animated film more than Brave by miles.
Nov 13, 2013Oh yeah. This movie is HILARIOUS! If you are a big fan of video games, then you will fall IN LOVE with this movie. I used to think this movie was stupid, then I watched it, and I changed my mind. It's anything but!
Nov 5, 2013Excellent film....it has a lot of excitement and diversity in the plot....but......it will never match the impact that has given us by the "Toy Story" series.....

Jul 22, 2013Wreck-It Ralph is another fantastic animation from Disney. If you are a fan of videogames, you cannot afford to miss this treasure trove of nods and references. Better still, the movie has real heart and soul. And some good laughs to boot.
Jul 21, 2013
Jul 7, 2013I LOVED THIS MOVIE. IT WAS REALLY CUTE WHEN VENELOPE CROSSED THE FINISH LINE AND everything went Back To Normal!! Watch the trailer here, http://www.metacritic.com/movie/wreck-it-ralph/trailers

Jun 25, 2013In a year were movies like the avengers and the dark knight and the always present competition of Pixar, it would be crazy to consider an non-pixar animated film one of the best movies of the year. Well, it would have be crazy if not for Wreck it Ralph! It is easily the best animated film of the year and one of my all time favorites from Disney.
Jun 20, 2013Wreck-it Ralph has become one of my favorite movies of all time! The characters are pretty well developed for a kids movie, the animation is A+ quality, the soundtrack is great, it's very original, and has a great message. The only thing that bothered me was the occasional heavily corny joke, but, the rest of the movie was so amazing that it doesn't really matter that it had some corny jokes.
Jun 10, 2013
Jun 5, 2013
Jun 4, 2013"Wreck It Ralph is a wonderfully delight, pure imaginative treat. That has set a new bar for Disney films everywhere including PIXAR. It has tons of heart and humor, Without a doubt the best animated film of the year. Maybe even quite possibly a classic." A+
May 27, 2013
May 21, 2013Best animated movie this year for me. Loved the characters(all of them), very well placed humor, nice 3d effects, and it's super original, therefore it deserved it's place among Oscar's nominee!
May 16, 2013
May 15, 2013A great animation of the Disney studios. Ralph is a movie magically colorful and lively with a well done storyline, fantastic scenery and characters and charismatic and funny, making for a fun family film.
May 14, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
May 10, 2013This movie is one of the most clever, fun-filled, and original movies I have ever seen. There is rarely a dull moment, and it is family friendly but will be a hit for adults as well. This comedy is sure to make you laugh and connect with the characters as you complete this awesome adventure.
May 6, 2013Awesome movie. I loved all the references and character cameos from the video games of years past. It was funny, clever and nostalgic. It would be a shame for anyone to miss out on this movie.
Apr 26, 2013
Apr 21, 2013I originally had this rated a 7; after watching it again a few times, it's really grown on me. The film works well, delivering comedy for both parents and children. A tad predictable, but what Disney move isn't? All in all, one of the better family films to come out in last few years.
Apr 20, 2013Wreck-It Ralph was //by far// the most original movie so far. Very emotional (to me) as well. I think it's for children 8-7 and up considering it says "killing" and "I want you dead" or something similar to that. But hey, this is just my honest opinion. I really recommend watching it, if you haven't already.
Apr 19, 2013It has been a long time since Disney has produced something this great of a masterpiece; with an audience suited for anyone, beautiful animation, characters the audiences can relate to, emotional voice acting, a twist that actually surprised me and to top it all video game references that were actually relevant to the story. This film deserves all of the 'wreck-ognition' it has achieved.
Apr 18, 2013
Apr 13, 2013
Apr 13, 2013this movie ws pretty good much better than i expected but it did have flaws the cast was very good in this i loved john c. riley as ralph and sarah silverman was great to the story was good except i would have liked to have seen more games or worlds visited it did seem to drag on towards the end with the whole sugar rush world but all around pretty good movie

Mar 30, 2013As an old gamer, I really liked the respect this movie payed to all forgotten games out there So, if you know what Qbert is, go see the movie without further delay As for me, I have to remember where my ZX Spectrum is
Mar 24, 2013Nicest video-game movie ever made. Just don't forget it's a kids movie.All nods to classic games are fantastic, still, the story stands on it's own. Get your kids to it!
Mar 23, 2013I actually expected less, maybe 7/10. But THIS movie is one of the best animated movies of 2013 (in where I live) and of all time. It's so good, I am wondering why people HATE IT?!? I tell you, it's no mixed bag, it's a Pick n Mix.
Mar 20, 2013
Mar 10, 2013Wreck-it Ralph is the best animated film since Toy Story 3. All the characters in this film help to create a story that could become a very nice franchise.
Mar 9, 2013Far more than just a loving homage to old school video games, Wreck-It Ralph is a joyous, funny, smart and touching story about being comfortable in your own skin. It's lesson may be older than the numerous video games that are referenced throughout, but it is a lesson that still resonates and is worth repeating.
Mar 7, 2013Wreck it Ralph is a rather fresh and new style of movie. It has the feel of a pixar film, but in a few ways could even be better. I am looking forward to Wreck it Ralph 2 to see what they can come up with next.

Mar 1, 2013A really fun movie to watch, with a good story behind it. But, I wish they did 2 things differently. 1. Make the character animations stick to their 8 bit or 16 bit origins. 2. There was not enough reference to old and current video games.
Feb 28, 2013
Feb 27, 2013
Feb 25, 2013i love this movie, it has a great range of funny emotional scenes. A great family movie starring Jane Lynch, and John C. Reilly.
Feb 24, 2013A very good film that will entertain both the kids and adults. The many video game references are brilliant. It provides the usual vast number of emotions you would expect from a disney film. Although thoruoghly enjoyable and entertaining it does not quite rank up there with the greatest animated disney films. Still definitely worth a watch though.
Feb 24, 2013
Feb 23, 2013Completely one of the greatest animated films of all time. It has many funny jokes, sad parts and such a colorful art direction and one of the greatest i have seen in years. Just amazing
Feb 21, 2013
Feb 19, 2013Best movie I saw in 2012. As a game villain Ralph is tired of being treated poorly, so on a bet he make an attempt at getting a coveted hero's medal. A story of trust and friendship, the video game landscape doesn't hurt the movie at all.
Feb 16, 2013Are you big on video games? Have you ever watched a movie about video games? If you haven't this movie is for you, it has lots of video game cameos, great story, beautiful animation and just as much fun to watch as playing a video game!
Feb 16, 2013
Feb 15, 2013
Feb 14, 2013Few movies deliver emotional notes on all levels. Even fewer accomplish that while delivering a story based on video game characters living in an arcade game machine. Wreck-It Ralph does all this while appealing to non-gamers and gamers alike. It's a good movie. Go watch it.
Feb 13, 2013Oh oh Pixar...what's going on? While Brave is a bravura technical achievement, its conventional narrative made it felt pedestrian. Wreck-It Ralph ends up being the best animated film of the year. It's creative, fun and heart warming. And for a retro gamer like me, it's a great treat to see all the old game characters of arcade yore making their cameos. Great stuff!
Feb 12, 2013When I saw the trailer for Wreck-It Ralph last year, it didn't excite me too much. Still, I thought I would give it a shot. I am long time gamer after-all. I didn't expect to watch a great nostalgic and heartfelt film. It is my favorite animated film since Toy Story 3.

Feb 6, 2013This was a pleasant surprise. Didn't expect much because I always found Disney-produced CGI films somewhere between 'okay' and 'good'. Wreck-It Ralph blew me away with its story and lively setting. It was heartwarming and fun, a combination I look for in these types of movies. I want to see this again.
For me, it never came to life.
Feb 4, 2013A "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" for the joystick generation that, despite a mid-act dip into generic Disney territory, high-scores on laughs, invention and 8-bit affection.
Jan 21, 2013A Disney flick that feels like on-form Pixar, blending knowing humour and sophistication with a large helping of heart. You'll want another go.

I know a lot of you have been asking about this one. At long last, we have an official schedule of spring training games on the radio.
WJFK (106.7 FM) is the new flagship station, as you've known for several weeks now. Most of the games this spring will be broadcast there, though a couple of games have conflicts and will be bumped to their sister station WHFS (1580 AM).
Here's the full spring radio schedule…
Sun, March 6 vs. Braves, 1:05 p.m. on 106.7 FM
Mon, March 7 vs. Astros, 1:05 p.m. on 1580 AM
Thu, March 17 at Braves, 6:05 p.m. on 106.7 FM
Fri, March 18 vs. Cardinals, 1:05 p.m. on 1580 AM
Sat, March 19 at Mets, 1:10 p.m. on 106.7 FM
Sun, March 20 vs. Tigers, 1:05 p.m. on 1580 AM
Thu, March 24 at Tigers, 6:05 p.m. on 106.7 FM
Fri, March 25 vs. Cardinals, 6:05 p.m. on 106.7 FM
Sat, March 26 at Astros, 1:05 p.m. on 106.7 FM
Sun, March 27 vs. Marlins, 1:05 p.m. on 106.7 FM
(Regular-season games will be simulcast on WFED (1500 AM) as an affiliate station, though I'm not sure if that also applies during the spring. I'll let you know when I find out. UPDATE: Sunday and Monday's games will not be on 1500 AM because the affiliate contract hasn't been officially signed yet. The two sides hope things are finally wrapped up in time for the March 17 broadcast.)

Looks like the spring games are on WFED 1500 AM too; per the Nats site: http://washington.nationals.mlb.com/schedule/broadcast/index.jsp?c_id=was

Marrero 2 for 2 today. Now is 4 for 4 with a double and ribbie. I can see why Laroche is gonna play in front of him, but why are these 2 journeyman guys in camp getting his PT. Ohhh…..wait….didn't Bowden draft Chris? Now it gets clearer
- Tom Bridge - Mar 5, 2011 at 2:58 AM
I talked with the program director at WJFK when the schedule came out, and he indicated the games would be simulcast on 1500 AM WFED.
- sjm 308 - Mar 5, 2011 at 3:29 AM
Do you really think that Rizzo or Riggleman make decisions about talent basing it on Bowden's history with this team? What a joke. They have played 5 games and he has played well which is great. According to people in FLA, he has lost some weight, and improved his fielding which are both positives. Marrero has moved up each year and will jump again to AAA. He is now on the 40 man roster and its only a matter of time, if he keeps improving that he will be here. He is still young and his getting playing time has nothing to do with Bowden. Now I have to admit, I don't understand why they signed Aubrey and Barker but they must need depth below Syracuse or they were covering themselves in case LaRoche got hurt.

You mean I will actually be able to hear the NATS play after dark way out in Manassas this year? That is a huge improvement over WFED that cuts it's power back when the sun goes down and the signal only goes as far as Fairfax!

10.11.2013 /
Spain's Maverick Viñales emerged triumphant in the 2013 Moto3 World Championship in a cliff-hanger finish to the season that gave KTM its second consecutive world title since the introduction of the discipline in 2012.
KTM riders finished top four in the championship with Alex Rins, Luis Salom and Álex Márquez finishing behind Maverick Viñales in that order.KTM CEO Stefan Pierer and Pit Beirer, Head of KTM Motorsports were at the race to see KTM take its second title.
Pit Beirer: "It was incredible to be here to see these three guys on the KTMs fight it out for the title and it was impossible to tell which one of these would be the winner. It has been another great racing season for KTM. In the end it was Maverick who stayed calm at the right moment and managed to win and we give him our warm and sincere congratulations for a job well done. I think this also proves that KTM delivers equal quality and material to our customer teams as well as our own factory team."
The final round saw Viñales with his KTM RC250 GP on the podium with KALEX-KTM rider Jonas Folger of Germany in second and Rins in third. Viñales won the title with his third race victory of the season in a result that was decided in the last corners on the Valencia circuit in front of 104,000 euphoric Spanish fans. It was always going to be a fight to the last between the three title contenders. Luis Salom of the Red Bull Ajo KTM factory team went into the race as the points leader but he, Viñales and Rins were only five points apart.
After playing cat and mouse with Viñales and Rins for the first 14 of 24 laps it was disaster and disappointment for Salom who crashed out. He scrambled back into the race but eventually finished fourteenth, fighting for points right to the end. If something had happened between Viñales and Rins at the front, he was still in with a chance to take the title. Salom was generous with his congratulations of the new champion and can still be satisfied with a top season where he was the winningest rider in Moto3.
Viñales, a recognized talent, ended his final season by taking the title with just three race wins. Salom won seven and Rins won six races with the Spanish National Anthem being played at all races. Viñales and Salom now move up to Moto2 as teammates in 2014 while Rins, the youngest of the three will complete another season in Moto3.
Salom's place in the Red Bull Ajo KTM Factory Team is being taken by Australian Jack Miller, who races with Karel Hanika, the 2013 Red Bull Rookies MotoGP Cup winner and Danny Kent of the UK who returns to the team where he raced in 2012.
Riders of the KTM RC250 GP Moto3 bike dominated the 2013 season making it a very clear victory in the Manufacturer's Title with KTM taking 425 points in front of KALEX-KTM with 191 and Mahindra in third place with 173!

I use it in the a.m. and I use it all over the face, neck and dcollet and right up to and under my eyes. A couple of drops, it goes a long way - It is wonderful, there is no heavy scent, very clean smell. It is one item I was happy to receive and I'm so glad SkinStore carries it as I'll returing to purchase again and again even though its a little costly should last a long time. -

2007 L.A. Roadster Show -More Than Just a Roadster Show - Expanded For Web
Written by on September 11, 2007 The 43rd Annual Show For The Half-Century-Celebrating L.A. RoadstersWe've seen an awful lot of anniversaries recently, and the L.A. Roadsters is no exception, as 2007 celebrates the club's 50-year anniversary. The event that the club is known for, the Roadster Show, held every Father's Day weekend at the L.A. Fairplex in Pomona, is no spring chicken either, this year seeing its 43rd annual happening. And it's still strictly roadsters in the main show area, though the outside car display is as big, while the swap meet, manufacturer, and vendor areas can very easily keep you from seeing any cars at all if you're not careful, since they cover so much ground!
This swap meet seems to draw out the rare stuff, and while a small percentage is purely on display for bragging rights, with owners having no real intention of selling, you'll find parts here you won't find elsewhere, and there are definitely bargains to be had if you keep your eyes open. How about a 4-71 blower, still with the diesel drive and in immaculate shape, for $200? We're still kicking ourselves for not spotting it on the first day, as it didn't sell until Saturday afternoon.
We could have happily spent all weekend in the swap meet, but duty was calling, so we made our way around the hundreds of roadsters in attendance as well as checking out all the new products and goodies, some of which you'll be seeing in the "Rod Shop" pages soon.
As ever, the roadsters ranged from strictly traditional to high tech, though we'd be hard-pushed to pick any emerging trend. The closest being pseudo-race cars running the gamut from gassers and faux dirt-track cars to beautifully engineered rods using traditional components but with a European vintage race car bent, such as with the use of 18-inch-or-larger wire wheels and Dunlop or Excelsior tires.
From the now-traditional-and extremely well-attended-open house at SO-CAL Speed Shop on the Friday evening prior to the event, to the very end of Sunday's action, many attendees probably still get around it all, which in our eyes makes it a roaring success.

Revision as of 04:01, 19 July 2012
This page is a list of suggested additions/changes in relation or in addition to an update of the wiki software.
Note: There have been updates; recently applied changes checked (✔) and briefly listed below, brand new items starred (✳), and recently eliminated items struck through.
Site Specific
These things are external to the use or running of the Wiki Software. Adjustments in this section may affect access or function of the wiki site as a whole.
- HTTPS connections & HTTPS site login
- Banks and lending institutions, email services, and social media, have all turned toward greater security. There is little reason why we should not also protect the logins of our users similarly. It should at least be an option for those users who choose to take advantage of it. This can be accomplished via Secure Page Extension as described below.
- Software Updates
- These surely may seem to be frequent.
- MediaWiki 1.18.1
- PHP 5.2.14 (apache2handler)
- MySQL 5.0.92-log
- Extension:Translate
- According to the MediaWiki Extension:Translate page, Translate extension is using continuous development model, which means we are not doing any releases. You should get the latest version from svn and update from time to time to get new features and bug fixes.
- Wiki Family ✳
- This appears to be a substantial structural change which would ultimately facilitate site-wide translation, and additional configuration to add language links. Described in the MediaWiki Manual page and specific desired result in Scenario 4.
- Extension:Secure Pages ✳
- This extension redirects the user to HTTPS on just some pages while redirecting to HTTP on any other page, thus reducing the load on the server due to limited HTTPS usage. Described in the Secure Pages Extension page on the Free Software wiki site.
Wiki Software
These things affect the user experience as directly related to MediaWiki.
- CentralAuth
- At the very least, this may be useful for accounts between FreeNAS and PC-BSD, and would also mean the chance for common block/ban lists.
- According to the MediaWiki Extension:CentralAuth page, allows global/shared accounts between projects. This extension adds seven new special pages — Special:AutoLogin (unlisted special page), Special:CentralAuth, Special:GlobalGroupMembership, Special:GlobalGroupPermissions, Special:WikiSets, Special:GlobalUsers and Special:MergeAccount.
- Collection
- This seems to allow more flexibility for publishing/export on a per user basis.
- According to the MediaWiki Extension:Collection page, This extension allows a user to organize personal selections of pages in a collection. Collections can be (some features require additional extensions) edited and structured using chapters, persisted, loaded and shared, rendered as PDF, exported as ODF Text Document, exported as DocBook XML, ordered as a printed book at http://pediapress.com/, exported as ZIM file.
- Interwiki ✳
- This extension would simplify/facilitate some administrative tasks (Configuring links for a multi-language wiki as in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family#Interwiki). According to the MediaWiki Extension:Interwiki page, This is an extension to add a Special:Interwiki page to MediaWiki, to view and edit the interwiki table, and a log of any actions made with it. It was made by Stephanie Amanda Stevens a.k.a Phroziac, because she was annoyed at forgetting the interwiki prefixes. It's made for MediaWiki 1.6 onwards.
- Version 1.4.1 (2011-06-21) is compatible with mediawiki 1.17 → 1.18 and is at http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/Interwiki/?revision=92408&pathrev=92408
- Allow user-defined CSS
- This will help those who desire something other than the reduced selection of skins proposed. It may also aid with testing future css layout changes (as suggested for NavHeader).
- Further investigation of this may be needed, in order to be sure it is not something that might enable an exploit of anything.
- (Whether this feature is in fact enabled needs to be determined.)
E-mail authentication- This may help to reduce the amount of spam on the wiki, and facilitate a level of automatic accountability.
- Except for password reminder e-mails, e-mail functions only work for authenticated e-mail ($wgEmailAuthentication = true)
- Either already enabled (undetermined) or no longer needed.
Restrict editing- This may help to reduce the amount of spam on the wiki, and facilitate a level of automatic accountability.
- Require e-mail verification before editing certain pages ($wgEmailConfirmToEdit = true).
- Either already enabled (undetermined) or no longer needed.
- enable lowercase links ✳
- This will help with the various pieces of software which may have a wiki page (desktops such as evilwm or i3) so that they can be accurately identified (ie, identical to the author's intention and/or FreeBSD port name).
- According to Mediawiki Manual:LocalSettings.php ($wgCapitalLinks = false) allows lowercase characters.
- Massive user account cleanup - special situation
- Hundreds or thousands of spam-related and accounts were created on the wiki site prior to the addition of the Asirra extension. A majority of the accounts created up to the end of May 2012 could be safely removed. Further criteria to filter legitimate accounts from the bulk in question may relate to last access time especially in relation to account creation, account name chosen, and general activity.
Concepts needing investigation or discussion
- Add class for NavHeader and/or other headers - Proposal
- It may be nice to have a stylesheet item which enables the shift of the page title where NavHeader is used.
- This would avoid the kludge that we are using currently which is simply a negative margin shift plus some markup that causes the header text to be hidden, but it is certainly imperfect- if you notice for redirects, it causes another problem, as well as trying to traverse history of a page.
- Any possible CSS changes have yet to be investigated and determined.
Automatic URL recognition - ProposalA URL of whichever type, should require the proper wiki syntax surrounding it. (ie. [http://freebsd.org] instead of http://freebsd.org )If this can be adjusted with the help of an extension or if it is simply a minor tweak of the parser, is not known, but it makes sense to limit/constrain function of URL entities.- Currently links detected within the edit cause activation of an Asirra ConfirmEdit action, and therefore seem to obviate the need of above concept.
- Reduce the number of available 'skins' - Proposal
- Vector is the nicest/sharpest skin, but the default (MonoBook) is also reasonable and uses the same general format, which means that CSS designed for use with one, should work with the other, and the NavHeader 'kludge' is effective for both.

- For each skin it may be necessary to verify the function and appearance of site revisions.
