The Sharks united and played like a team to down the Force in Perth.
The Sharks won 23-13 to end their tour on a positive.
Fullback Riaan Viljoen injected the moment of individualism required to break open a game that threatened a stalemate at 13-all and Pat Lambie's boot did the rest on a night in which the better side won.
The Force led 10-7 at halftime but the Sharks were always the more dangerous in attack and although they were defensively poor at times they never looked like losing the game.
The Force relied on courageous and defiant defence to beat the Crusaders and draw with the Reds in Perth but on Friday they couldn't replicate a similar intensity to trouble the Sharks.
The South Africans, low on confidence and ravaged by injury and talk of cultural divisions in the team, played with unity and there didn't seem to be a lack of communication in their rugby. They outscored the hosts two tries to one, with captain Keegan Daniel getting the first try and Vijoen running strongly for his five pointer.
Lambie was decent with the boot but again produced a performance at flyhalf that was more par than eagle-like.
Marcel Coetzee was the pick of a committed forward effort, Daniel and Willem Alberts were always present and Viljoen was easily the best of the South African backs.
Force – Try: Kyle Godwin. Conversion: Jayden Hayward. Penalty: Hayward (2).
Sharks – Try: Keegan Daniel, Riaan Viljoen. Conversion: Pat Lambie (2). Penalty: Lambie (3).

The IRB will add three more full-time teams to the 2012-13 Sevens World Series.
The IRB confirmed on Tuesday that this initiative is set to grow sevens rugby's support group ahead of the code's Olympic debut at the 2016 Rio Games. The number of teams that will take part in each event in the World Series will increase from the so-called 12 'core' sides to 15.
This will see the Hong Kong Sevens (March 23-25) double up as a qualification tournament to determine the three new teams competing in all events in the 2012-13 campaign.
'As we build towards Rio 2016 and our Olympic Games debut, it is important that opportunities exist for all nations to progress to series core team status if they are good enough,' said IRB chairman Bernard Lapasset.

The table presents past performance which is no guarantee of future results and which may be lower or higher than current performance. Returns reflect temporary contractual fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. Had the ETF incurred all expenses and fees, investment returns would have been reduced. Investment returns and ETF share values will fluctuate so that investors' shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. ETF returns assume that dividends and capital gains distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at NAV.
The "Net Asset Value" (NAV) of a Market Vectors Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) is determined at the close of each business day, and represents the dollar value of one share of the fund; it is calculated by taking the total assets of the fund, subtracting total liabilities, and dividing by the total number of shares outstanding. The NAV is not necessarily the same as the ETF 's intraday trading value. Market Vectors ETF investors should not expect to buy or sell shares at NAV.
The "After Tax Held" represents total return after taxes on distributions and assumes shares have not been sold. "After Tax Sold" represents total return after taxes on distributions and the sale of Fund shares. After-tax returns reflect the highest federal income tax rate but exclude state and local taxes. After-tax returns are based on NAV.

From Passover to Eucharist
Tim Staples is Director of Apologetics and Evangelization here at Catholic Answers, but he was not always Catholic. Tim was raised a Southern Baptist. Although he fell away from the faith of his childhood, Tim came back to faith in Christ during his late teen years through the witness of Christian televangelists. Soon after, Tim joined the Marine Corps.
During his four-year tour, he became involved in ministry with various Assemblies of God communities. Immediately after his tour of duty, Tim enrolled in Jimmy Swaggart Bible College and became a youth minister in an Assembly of God community. During his final year in the Marines, however, Tim met a Marine who really knew his faith and challenged Tim to study Catholicism from Catholic and historical sources. That encounter sparked a two-year search for the truth. Tim was determined to prove Catholicism wrong, but he ended up studying his way to the last place he thought he would ever end up: the Catholic Church!
He converted to Catholicism in 1988 and spent the following six years in formation for the priesthood, earning a degree in philosophy from St. Charles Borromeo Seminary in Overbrook, Pennsylvania. He then studied theology on a graduate level at Mount St. Mary's Seminary in Emmitsburg, Maryland, for two years. Realizing that his calling was not to the priesthood, Tim left the seminary in 1994 and has been working in Catholic apologetics and evangelization ever since.
If you are interested in booking Tim Staples for an upcoming event, please contact Catholic Answers at (619) 387-7200.
Being Catholic isn't easy. Every Catholic will come face-to-face with anti-Catholic attacks that are launched against the Faith. Don't you owe it to yourself to make sure you have the very best in apologetic resources right at your fingertips?There's no better time to arm yourself with what we consider a must for every Catholic's home library… The Essential Catholic Survival Guide.

Have you tried L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme Extreme? It's chocolatey, intense, and not too femme, in my opinion.
Thread: A masculine chocolate?
Most of the 'chocolate' scents i've looked at are femme, or too sweet. Are there any that are masculine, with darker basenotes? (other than the Muglar line)
Something with notes of Cocoa, chocolate, coffee, butterscotch, vanilla, rum, dark berries, etc, with something more exotic, and a base to ground it along the lines of leather, wood, patchouli, tobacco, etc

A*Men. But honestly chocolate is stinky, I recommend cocoa, maybe that's what you mean. In that case:
Guerlain L'Instant Extreme
New Haarlem by Bond no9
Thank you everyone! I thought A men was the one but it was too sweet and had a powdery sweet geriatric drydown on my skin that was just too much. It smells good, just not on me. The Guerlain L'Instant Extreme sounds amazing, I'm ordering some now.
Aside from the the ones mentioned above:
A*men Pure Malt by Thierry Mugler
Borneo 1834 by Serge Lutens
Five O'clock au Gingembre by Serge Lutens
My blog: http://scentedpassion.blogspot.com/
Try Dior Homme
L'Instant de Guerlain PH Extreme is the best IMO. But some cheapies well worth checking out are Animale Animale and Antonio Banderas Spirit.
Rochas Man

Some good suggestions already...i'll add
Lacoste's Elegance (choco base)
O Boticario's Egeo Dolce (chocolate mid-base)
and the base of Tom Ford for Men extreme, the combo of vanilla and black truffle smells chocolatey and with the rum , it makes up for a great bonbon liqueur.
also some chocolate smell-a-likes that don't really have chocolate (like TFfME) are Jacomo for Men and TF's Tobacco Vanille.
VERY IRRESISTIBLE by Givenchy ... very much chocolatish but too linear.
The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.
Play Intense is a great gourmand that is perfectly balanced. Out of my 35 or so bottles and the 100+ samples she's smelled, it's my girlfriends favorite on a most primal level (the tear your clothes off kind. She also includes some more complex/refined scents in her favorites on me such as Oxford and Cambridge and Lyric Man.)

Well, if one is going for a chocolatey note, the Intense rocks.
The normal Play is just another male fragrance, whereas the Intense
version is bold and spicy! I do wish, being an EdT Intensé and all, that
it actually were intense, I find it quite light, and tend to spray alot
when applying!
I think Lacoste Elegance deserves a mention. I think Lacoste and Rochas Man are about all you could want in a chocolate rotation.
Even the regular, not just the extreme version, of L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme has some chocolate notes to it- however, slight hints of chocolate mixed with notes reminiscent of fudge, mocha, licorice and winter spices (at least, this is how I perceive this frag)
Dior Homme Intense screams masculine chocolate to me, very gourmandish.
Le Grand Duc, can you give a full description of Givenchy Play Intense please?
Acqua di Giò is my guilty pleasure. What's yours?
I must add that I own and love Play Intense. I'll leave it to Duc to describe it. Well, I'll just say that it's chocolatey, has a cappucino like coffee note, has a nice labdanum in the base and a good bit of patchouli, too. It's rich but never too sweet and maintains a sort of airy diffusiveness that I didn't find to be true for A*Men, and it avoids the stuffy cedar accord of Rochas Man (I may be sensitive to a specific chemical, as I've noticed this cedar note jump out before in other scents that feature it, like Fleur du Male). It really does a good job of creating an aura around you - that kind of scent aura where it is very hard to pinpoint or localize where the scent is coming from. Longevity on me is 12+ hours and sillage is moderate to very good.
Well, I guess I said more than I originally intended.

Vetiver Oriental has a cocoa note, a very dry one. And Lonestar Memories does also, to my nose, mixed in amongst the other stuff that some people smell as barbecue and brimstone, burning asphalt, root beer, etc.
'...And you'll carry me down on your dancing
To the pools that you lift on your wrist...'
I hope you enjoy it, Desmond. It doesn't evolve all that much but it's not completely linear, either.
I actually prefer the original Play in a lot of cases as it's more versatile and more complex (in the sense that it evolves quite a bit throughout its lifespan), but Play Intense is definitely more distinctive, suited for the upcoming cold weather, and for me, a real comfort scent. I love them both, and really do feel that they make a good duo, having enough similarities that if you like one you'll likely enjoy the other, but being different enough that each excels during a particular season or occasion.
While neither of them are groundbreaking, they both are exceptionally balanced - especially in regards to their diffusion and their very smooth textures - and as a result I feel stand above a great majority of modern releases.

As some have mentioned... Rochas Man
"Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each!" - Henry David Thoreau
all I can say is, that it surpriced me. I thought I was gonna sniff yet a plain,
boring male frag, but discovered a milder version of A*men, which screams
sexy gourmand ... it's quite lovely, but borderline feminine, so not for all..!
i haven't smelled all of the above ones listed, but I do feel that some of them pretty clearly miss the chocolate mark. I have no idea what some of the above rec's are getting at.
Of those I've smelled, I'll +1 only to L'Instant, and Play Intense. Dior Homme, Angel and Rochas I feel are either too sweet, not "manly" enough, or not all that chocolaty, but at least they're closer to the mark then some of the others.
Tom Ford Splits!!!! - Tobacco Vanille, Tuscan Leather, Oud Wood, Noir de Noir - PATCHOULI ABSOLU
Plum Japonais, Italian Cypress, Neroli Portofino, Costa Azzura, Azure Lime, Champacca Absolute
HARD TO FIND - Lavender Palm, Arabian Wood, and AMBER ABSOLUTE, etc...
Most of the time I am very proud of the Basenotes community. Time after time I have witnessed the thoughtfulness, empathy & genuine friendship that members of this community extend to others - oldtimers & newcomers alike. There are other times, however, when egos get the upper hand and civility goes out the window. My philosophy is that I won't say anything here that I would not say if you were standing in front of me. Welcome to Basenotes, each and every one of us. ~ TwoRoads
It's a little bit hard to find now, but Vanille Mohka from Comptoir Sud Pacific is basically a roasted coffee aroma with a dark chocolate cookie aura over a creamy vanilla base...
On me, dior homme intense is more like white chocolate than dark chocolate I think...
You also have chocolate greedy from montale, that starts like a sweet and dark chocolate with orange notes, but end in a vanilla base...
It's quite interesting that anyone cited Bvlgari Blv Notte. On me this one is an affordable dry chocolate scent. It opens in a fresh spicy ginger of the original Blv, but less soapy I think, and then it develops to a dry woody base with dark chocolate and some boozy notes.
And if you want your dark chocolate paired with some roses, you can try CiocoRosissimo from Hilde Soliane. It's unique chocolate fragrance, never smelled anything like this one before.
WTF, Rick?! 6 posts in a row! LOOOL!
To me, Animale Animale is the more masculine of either A*Men of Rochas Man (but don't get confused with plain old Animale, which is in a very similar bottle, but is like a suped-up version of Eternity).
How is Rochas Man masculine?

I really liked play intense, but i didn't read it's make up and I couldn't put my finger on the note that was so attractive. This one will def be in my wardrobe.
From your recommendations, I've ordered : L'Instant PH Extreme & Tom Ford for Men extreme. Chocolate greedy & borneo 1834 will be next.
I smell like oatmeal hippy soap, cigarettes & coffee before I ever put anything on, so I think these will go great with my skin.
Thank you all again, I love this forum

I will agree with L'Instant Pour Homme Extreme and give another vote to Montale Chocolate Greedy as well. Chocolate Greedy is what you wear if you want real, identifiable chocolate throughout the scents development. I dont find Chocolate Greedy's top notes too masculine but they dont last long.
Montale Chocolate Greedy smells like Chocolate Milk Powder, if that's what you'd fancy. Comptoir Sud Pacific has a few Cocaos I think. I quite like Amour de Cacao.

Most of the time I am very proud of the Basenotes community. Time after time I have witnessed the thoughtfulness, empathy & genuine friendship that members of this community extend to others - oldtimers & newcomers alike. There are other times, however, when egos get the upper hand and civility goes out the window. My philosophy is that I won't say anything here that I would not say if you were standing in front of me. Welcome to Basenotes, each and every one of us. ~ TwoRoads

It's happening again! In 2009, three more Leadership Development Program grads will be able to begin studying at Moody Bible Institute, with full-ride scholarships.
I anticipate having the list of finalists in March, and hope to have our new students in Colorado Springs in August.
Please pray for everyone involved in this program as we move through the process – visas, language tests, itineraries, etc. Applying for the scholarship, and to Moody, can be very stressful, and our desire is that getting this full-ride scholarship will be a completely positive, life-changing experience.
Anyway, just wanted to let you know the GREAT news and ask you to pray. Thanks.

2012 Hall of Fame
Inductee Rose Mann Cherney
The TEC Awards Hall of Fame was created in 1988 to recognize those individuals, living or deceased, whose careers have best exemplified the spirit of creative and technical excellence in professional recording and sound.
Rose Mann Cherney didn't set out to be in the studio business, but more than 30 years after she began, she is still at it as a principal with the renowned Record Plant Studios in Los Angeles. It was a chance meeting with her friend—musician, composer and producer Al Kooper—that led to a job interview with Record Plant owners Chris Stone and Gary Kellgren, who needed someone to run the studio's front desk and book sessions. Intending to stay for a short time, it wasn't long before she found herself hooked, becoming first studio manager, and ultimately company president and partner. Today Rose is responsible for Record Plant L.A's overall operation as well as maintaining its stellar reputation as one of the world's top recording studios.
It is the title Studio Manager, however, that will forever be linked to the name Rose Mann Cherney, a job she helped define by bringing a level of concierge service and personal attention to detail that remains unmatched in the industry.
"Her focus has always been all about technical excellence combined with the service level of a 5-star hotel, a formula that has kept Record Plant on top for many years," says Record Plant CEO and owner Rick Stevens. "She has had a profound influence as a studio executive and has literally changed the way modern recording studios operate. It's always been about the way she treats each client and her uncanny ability to build the team to serve them."
Mann Cherney's attention to her team has meant helping protégés launch their own careers, taking assistant engineers under her wing, and remaining as tenacious about protecting her runners as she is about serving her artists, producers and engineers. Many major figures of the music industry got their start as a Record Plant runner or junior engineer, and Rose has shown them the way. As the first female president of a major recording studio, as well as the first woman to be inducted to the TEC Awards Hall of Fame, Rose Mann Cherney has also illuminated the path for a generation of women working in the studio business.
2012 Les Paul Award:
Pete Townshend
Named for one of the industry's most revered personalities, the Les Paul Award was created in 1991 to honor individuals or institutions that have set the highest standards of excellence in the creative application of recording technology.
photo: Ross Halfin
This year's Les Paul Award recipient, Pete Townshend, has enjoyed one of the most intriguing, respected and multifaceted careers of any artist in the rock and roll era.
The outline of his life in music is well-known. As the leader/guitarist/main songwriter for The Who for close to five decades now (with a few breaks), he has produced songs and albums that will endure long beyond our own lifetimes. The Who were the original mod band, coming onto the scene in the wake of The Beatles, and a true force of nature unlike any other group playing the clubs in England at the time. No other band boasted a drummer as explosive as Keith Moon, a bassist as inventive as John Entwistle, a singer with the pipes of Roger Daltrey or a guitarist and songwriter as vital and energetic as Pete.
Their early hits were brimming with youthful vitality and power: "I Can't Explain," "My Generation," "Substitute," "Pictures of Lily," "I Can See for Miles," "Happy Jack." Each was completely different from the others, yet all were branded with that unmistakable Who chemistry. And that was just their formative years.
By the time the group gets to Pete's immortal rock opera, Tommy, in 1969, their classic Who's Next LP two years later, and what many consider to be Pete's true masterpiece, Quadrophenia, in 1973, the band was widely recognized as one of the best in the world. Their dynamic live shows became legendary—and not just because Pete sometimes closed performances by theatrically smashing his guitar (a spectacle immortalized in the films Monterey Pop and Woodstock). These cats could really rock; Pete's "windmill" strums, Roger's microphone slinging and Keith's sometimes goofy antics were just icing on top of non-stop soul-stirring group interplay.
The original quartet continued to make exciting music together through their smash 1978 album, Who Are You. Unfortunately, Keith Moon died in September of that year. Still, the group carried on with drummer Kenny Jones for a couple more years and albums before disbanding for the first time in 1983. In the years since, the group has reformed several times, usually augmented by additional players, and embarked on several very successful tours. John Entwistle passed away in 2002, but Pete and Roger have soldiered on, even rockin' the Super Bowl half-time show a couple of years ago.
Pete has also made a number of excellent solo albums since the early '70s, affirming that in addition to being an incredible guitarist, he is also a nuanced and emotive singer (and a multiinstrumentalist adept at keyboards and other instruments). His 1980 opus, Empty Glass, which included the radio favorite "Let My Love Open the Door," easily stands among his finest works. But all of his solo albums, including ambitious story-based works such as White City: A Novel, The Iron Man: A Musical and Psychoderelict, contain amazing songs that are overflowing with humanity and give us fascinating glimpses of his unique and complex worldview.
A fine writer, as well as one of the most thoughtful and articulate interview subjects a journalist could ever hope to find, Pete has championed many worthwhile causes through the years, playing countless benefits and lending his voice to those in need. He could have rested on his laurels and packed it in long ago, but this restless, gifted and endlessly creative talent has kept moving forward—finding that next song, expressing that next thought that will tell us more about the joy and mystery and, yes, the pain, that is part of being alive in this time.

Nearly two-thirds of American families rely on a mother's income, and mothers now out-earn their husbands in more than one-third of married-couple families
Klobuchar calls for passage of the Paycheck Fairness Act and other policies to ensure fair pay and economic opportunity for women
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Vice Chair of the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee, today released a new 'Mother's Day' report showing that nearly two-thirds of American families rely either in part or entirely on a mother's income, underscoring the increasingly critical role mothers play in ensuring the financial success of their families. Nationwide, roughly 45 million children have a mother who works outside the home, and 17 million children live in households where the mother is the sole breadwinner. Klobuchar called for the passage of the Paycheck Fairness Act and other policies to ensure fair pay and economic opportunity for women.
"This report confirms what most of us already knew: American moms are a force of nature, both in our families and in our economy," Klobuchar said. "With two-thirds of today's families relying all or in part on a mother's income, the economic impact of these women has never been more important. We need to do everything we can to ensure women can succeed in the workforce in the workforce and lift up their families."
Across the country, 70 percent of mothers with children under the age of 18 are in the labor force. More than one-quarter of mothers employed outside the home are single moms. In married-couple families, 65 percent of mothers are employed, and on average, they contribute more than 40 percent of their family's income. In more than one-third of those families, mothers now out-earn their husbands, serving as their household's primary income earner.
Despite recent progress, another recent JEC report acknowledges that women—both mothers and those without children—continue to face challenges in the workforce. Women who work full time earn between 77 and 82 cents for every dollar men earn, and that wage gap has far-reaching implications for women at all stages of their lives, but particularly in retirement: As Klobuchar noted in that report, lower lifetime earnings often translate into lower Social Security payments, pension incomes and personal savings for women.
Klobuchar's 'Mothers' Day' report looks at potential policy solutions for helping more women and mothers gain financial security. Klobuchar is a cosponsor of the Paycheck Fairness Act, legislation that would have helped close the gender pay gap but fell short of passing the Senate in early April. Two-thirds of family caregivers are women, and for mothers looking after aging relatives, Klobuchar has introduced legislation that would help ease the financial strain, called the Americans Giving Care to Elders Act.

this separate thread is to record those users who wish anna roll-back facility.
patch to belle is required, but there are some others who want anna back. i for one am one.

20-02-2012 15:15
I sure want Anna back! Please, Nokia, give us the option to revert to Anna. Roll it out with a higher version number and every service center in the whole wide world will be able to 'upgrade' us back to Anna, without any issues whatever.
22-02-2012 17:14
give anna back
02-03-2012 7:27
Nokia, Please allow us to rollback from Symbian Belle to Symbian Anna. There issues on software of Belle. We need our phone to be more productive.
02-03-2012 8:55
02-03-2012 12:18
I also want Anna back !!!!!! One of the main apps I USED to USE was the mobile television and now with the useless Belle IT DOS NOT WOTK ANYMORE !!!
Also cannot set up my mail for echange mail boxes !!
nokia, please create patch so we can get Anna back ot fix Belle ASAP
02-03-2012 18:03
About Mobile TV, go to Nokia Store and make sure that you are using the latest version of Nokia Store and search for Mobile TV and then download the application. Mobile TV application is compatible with Symbian Belle.
Concerning mail for exchange mailboxes, which mailboxes are you reffering to? The Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail etc or?
02-03-2012 19:56
Hi guys
I hope that you get what you're asking for, but I think it's easier for Nokia to release bug fixes or missing widgets than any kind of downgrade.
I'm not telling that you're wrong in asking for it; what I'm trying to say is that there are no chances you can get it.
Please try the positive way and go forward. Myke_Myers_N8 have a good thread about Belle's bugs, fixes and missing things:
Maybe this can help better.
02-03-2012 20:57
There's no point yearning for rollback cause nokia will never do that. Not even in their dreams as it will not only bring disrepute to the company but also tag Belle as a "Failed" software( which its not as many of friends like it over Anna). But I can remember Microsoft provided a rollback option to window vista users(PC) who upgraded to window 7 few year back. However I don't know how far it is relevant here... I personally go for update's voice than for rollback supporters...
03-03-2012 11:52
07-03-2012 15:15
please nokia we love u we really need it plz
07-03-2012 15:20

okay then we will switch to blackberry no problem

How can there be such basic usability catastrophes like the Back arrow looking exactly the same but sometimes exiting applications instead of going to the previous screen? These are not things you test on your end users and then upgrade, you should notice them in your first design iteration of the interface.

Hi roope70
You're so right with that observation and that leads me to something I want to share in here.
A great part in the secret of success behind iPhone is that, exactly; the final product has been exhaustively tested and the user experience is 90% pre-known by Apple before the product launch to market. The other 10% comes with their actual use with different operators around the world and the incredibly large amount of applications at disposal for them and is released ASAP as bug fixes / patches.
Please note that I'm not saying it's the best device because I don't think so. I'm a Nokia fan and love my N8 btw, but also have to admit that every product Nokia releases is a "Work In Progress" and we, the customers, help a lot in finishing up our devices and that usually happens when our devices are too old to fulfill their potential, so they're sort of "Sean Connery" (the older the better).
This leads me to a second great part of iPhone's success:
The customer experiences having the best in the market (I'm not saying it is the best but the customer feels that way), at least for a year. In Nokia's case they themselves mine under their own products and you can't enjoy your device for even a month but they're announcing some other better device launch and even those better devices are not the best of the market so it's a long frustrating chain.
I hope this helps and please Nokia read our posts.
11-03-2012 22:13
The thing is I would never ask for a rollback either, since I'm usually open to new changes and adapt eventually without much problems so I was actually happy to upgrade to Belle. But here's the problem: none of the applications I used are available now for Belle (like the facebook's mobile app for instance, i always used that cause the ovi one doesn't work as fast and I just don't like it) and not to mention none of my personal settings were retained with this update. I had to manually do my settings again. For some reason my screensaver setting keeps resetting to "none" and I constantly have to set it again to the clock. I like the customizability of the widgets very much but it's not worth all the "downgrading" the patch brought to my phone (C7). If these issues are gonna be resolved really soon then I think I could suck it up for a little while but if a patch is unlikely in the near future to fix these stuff, then I definitely would like to go back to Anna cause I was actually happy with my phone when it had Anna.
13-03-2012 19:13
nokia belle looks nice and thats about it... belle is always going to be better than this , please allow us to go back to reality and use our phones properly again for the love of all thats holy

The Killing will be wrapping up its third season in the next few weeks. Should the crime drama come back for a fourth season or should it be cancelled (again)?
Last year, after The Killing's ratings fell in season two, AMC cancelled the show. Thanks to a special deal between Fox TV, AMC, and Netflix, the drama was revived and brought back for a third season.
Though many people were glad to hear that The Killing was coming back, the ratings have been virtually the same as they were in season two (which ultimately resulted in the series being cancelled).
The show hasn't been renewed yet and, based on the revival deal, it seems like things could go either way.
But, what do you think? Is The Killing still worth watching? Should it be renewed for a fourth season or is it time to cancel it and make way for something new?
