You might have a few games to download once you get in but a lot of the instant game collection items are time sensitive. #1.1.2 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report IAmLee + 850d ago you can never have enough free stuff.. #1.2 Agree(1) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Scenarist + 850d ago seems like u cant ... but some free stuff is a waste of space....

I wonder how long it'll take before "free" PS4 games release on the service, it took 11 months for vita to the service and have "free" titles included This is cool, I only have a 3 month subscription currently and was thinking about getting the year. #1.4 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply FamilyGuy + 850d ago Up until recently i was thinking PS+ is weird, how can they give away so many games? It's great for us but what about the devs? If i chose not to resubscribe it would hardly be a problem as i dont tend to play games a year after purchase anyway. Then I was playing dungeon defenders and was considering buying the dlc (cause i like it so much) and it hit me, it could be making money off of dlc or hyping you up to buy a sequel. These might be factors in how they choose which games become free. Also, to the people trying to downplay the free games: Note that PS+ is a service, people mostly subscribe because of the games but the games are NOT the service. Hence the reason they are called "free". The service is: getting discounted prices on the ps store getting cloud storage space getting 1 hour game trials getting automatic updates getting automatic saving to the cloud storage getting early access to some demos getting access to or early access to some betas. free games are called "free" games because they are a bonus. #1.5 (Edited 850d ago ) | Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply nzk0 + 851d ago Oh, that's good to know I was thinking about singing up actually heh #2 Agree(18) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply DivineAssault + 851d ago Dont think!

I have about 4 free months I picked up over the year so doesn't expire until July, but might take advantage of this.:) With enough of these I may be able to go through the whole next gen without paying. #5.2 Agree(2) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Ducky + 851d ago Wasn't planning on renewing my subscription, but what the hell.

I'm not making fun of it, but their is a difference. If you can't recognize it, that doesn't mean it fails to exist. If I subscribe to a magazine, once my subscription is done, do I have to give my magazines back ?

Unless the game in question is an xbox game that has online multiplayer, in which case a large portion of it can and will be taken away from you if you dont keep up with your subscription. #10.1.6 Agree(11) | Disagree(1) | Report FunAndGun + 851d ago yes, just like any subscription in existence. You get to use it when you pay and stop using it when you don't pay.

Sure if your Plus subscription runs out you can't play them. However they're still there for when you get back on. Also, their sales this week with my Plus account. I bought a 40 dollar game for 10 bucks. That's 30 dollars... Right there that I saved. That almost pays for Plus by itself. Anyway, are you seriously complaining about something that costs less for a YEAR than the price of a single MONTH'S internet bill? I'd rather get a game every week for a year that I can play, instead of paying 60 dollars for a single new game. Plus is amazing, end of story. #10.4 Agree(36) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply ALLWRONG + 850d ago "Rentals imply that you have to return them at some point" No it doesn't, this isn't 1995 and Blockbuster. Most services now use streaming like Amazon, Live, Apple, even Sony. You are comparing physical media vs digital. "Sure if your Plus subscription runs out you can't play them." <-that You know people in NA with an "internet connection" have ways of getting Xbox Live for free, and it's legit. #10.4.1 Agree(1) | Disagree(2) | Report Snookies12 + 850d ago @ALLWRONG - Yeah, I'm sure it's legal to get your Xbox Live free...

How is comparing digital contents to printed magazines considered as smart? They are hardly comparable to begin with! How about comparing PS+ to Netflix for example? Both of them offer digital contents. No? Of course you won't do it because with Netflix, when your subs is over, you keep nothing, all gone! But with PS+, when your subs is over and you don't think of renewing it, all the free avatars, theme and things you bought at discounted prices stay with you! And...you still can play your games online for FREE as it's NOT REQUIRED for online play unlike a certain other service! So, you can keep trolling PS+ if that makes you happy but coming here comparing it with magazines? Please just stop as it doesn't make you sound as smart as you think you are! It's just plain embarrassing! #10.6.3 (Edited 850d ago ) | Agree(5) | Disagree(0) | Report kenshiro100 + 850d ago 3-4-5 You're not very smart yourself. #10.6.4 Agree(1) | Disagree(0) | Report wenaldy + 851d ago 2/10 for lackluster of trolling.. keep harder.. #10.7 Agree(23) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Bowzabub + 851d ago Riderz just bent you over and delivered a 3-2 screwball up the gut. #10.8 Agree(9) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply BlueTemplar + 850d ago I love the idiots who come out and complain about this - apparently "renting" the multiplayer component of games YOUVE ALREADY PAID £40 FOR is just fine, but "renting" full games is a terrible thing it would seem. #10.9 Agree(17) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply mayberry + 850d ago Free PS1 games from PS+ are yours forever. Also mini's, free games for lfe from PS+ #10.10 Agree(4) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply WeAreLegion + 850d ago A big reason that we all get Plus is that the discounts are crazy good! It costs $6 per month to have Plus. This month, alone, I have saved $10 on LBP: Karting, $3 on The Unfinished Swan, $4 on Tokyo Jungle, $5 on House of the Dead: Overkill, and much more money on games I can't even think of right now. I get to actually KEEP those games, if I ever unsubscribed from PS Plus. However, I plan on having plus for at least the next ten years. I can guarantee it will make its way to PS4 and possibly even PS5. It's a wonderful service and I'm sure they love the money. We love SAVING money. ;) #10.11 Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply rapidturtle + 850d ago Go back to xbox and pay them $60 a year to use the internet you are already paying for. #10.12 Agree(3) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Riderz1337 + 851d ago I just got a 3 month subscription but I guess I'll get this one year sub so I'l be subscribed for 1 year and a half. PS Plus FTW #11 Agree(9) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply kingPoS + 851d ago The only question I have is whether it counts if I let it auto renew on it's own? #12 (Edited 851d ago ) | Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply jon1234 + 851d ago you should call sony customer service, although most of the people i have talked to are idiots... maybe they can check to see if it does #12.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply FunAndGun + 851d ago You can stack the membership. Meaning if you currently have Plus, you can buy this in the store and the time will just be added to whatever time you have left on your subscription. I highly doubt the auto-renew will add the three extra months even if your subscription ends during this promo period. Just to be safe, do it manually before March and you will get the 15 months added. #12.2 Agree(5) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Skynetone + 851d ago When mine auto renewed, it took advantage of the offer, on at that time i paid 37 euro instead of 50 auto renew should be just fine, as long as it auto renews it the that time period #12.3 Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply violents + 851d ago Sony's really pushing thier customer base for more money. I just got an email that if I can get a friend to buy a PS vita they would give me a $20 PSN card, and now this. They are trying to build some capitol from their existing fanbase for something. I hope this means something big from sony coming soon.

I own a Vita like it says..... #13.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply rainslacker + 850d ago It's promotion to increase sales, it's something all businesses do and doesn't necessarily mean they need the money for something. They wouldn't go into something without money already secured for it. #13.2 Agree(2) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply violents + 850d ago Oh I'm not saying their trying to recoup or something, however when a business like sony pushes to make a lot of money somewhere, ie all the great deals with ps and pushing current customers to get their friends in will push the revenues higher and companies reinvest thier money to make more, so that means better and more games in the future hopefullly. #13.2.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report profgerbik + 850d ago I never got any email about that. Still haven't, knew about the deal but I didn't know people were getting emails. #13.3 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply violents + 850d ago do you use the email your PSN account name is under? #13.3.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report dollison27 + 850d ago That message is more than likely a scam.

I think I heard that 12-month subscriptions cards redeemed during the promo will get you the extra three months as well, but there's no risk in buying the $50 PSN card, and using that to buy Plus, so it's probably safer to just go that route. #26.1 Agree(2) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply NobleTeam360 + 850d ago Awesome 15 months of Plus hear I come. #27 Agree(1) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply iwueriiusdf 850d ago | Spam OllieBoy + 850d ago Got it.

The new PlayStation store is gorgeous and albeit a bit confusing at first to control, I'm super happy with its result. I first got the Plus with sheer joy at its possibilities and promises but was, honestly, let down. My PS3 died on me so I played my 360 and PC a lot more. Months passed and I missed Uncharted and all my other PS3 games. Bought myself another PS3, hopped back on and was floored at how Plus had grown. The deals are amazing and the perks are getting sweeter, too. So yeah...keep going this route, Sony. Can't wait to see what you have for us next :). #30 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Add comment You need to be registered to add comments.

KUALA LUMPUR: Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim gave his statement to police at the Dang Wangi Friday station Thursday, in connection with a sex video featuring a man allegedly resembling him.
Anwar arrived at the police station at 2.50pm in a car, together with his wife Datin Seri Wan Azizah Wan Ismail and his brother-in-law Wan Mokhtar Wan Ismail.
The full video was screened to a select group of media representatives by a group known as 'Datuk T' at Carcosa Seri Negara here on March 21.
Police began investigation into the sex video after Anwar lodged a report and denied he was the man in the video.
Meanwhile, a member of the 'Datuk T' trio, businessman Datuk Shazryl Eskay Abdullah, challenged Anwar to swear on the Quran after Friday prayers that he was not the man in the video.
"I also want to invite all those who doubt the truth to come," he told a press conference.
He denied that Datuk T was involved in distributing clips of the sex video.
Two video clips of the sexual act between the man and a woman, said to be of Chinese nationality, were earlier uploaded on YouTube. - Bernama

ESCONDIDO: Budget plan would close arts center, city pools, library branch
Cuts would reduce annual expenses from $80M to $71M
Solving the city's budget crisis this spring would require closing the performing arts center, both city pools, three city parks, the East Valley library branch and the East Valley Community Center, city officials said Monday.
The cuts, which would save $9.1 million per year and require laying off 44 full-time employees and 23 part-timers, would also include reducing the police force from 168 to 164 and slashing budgets for nonprofit agencies, new city vehicles, code enforcement, graffiti removal and pothole repair.
The City Council's budget subcommittee reluctantly supported the package of proposed cuts on Monday, but said $20.6 million in city reserves could be used to avoid some of the cuts.
However, plummeting sales tax revenue has already forced the city to burn through about $19 million in reserves over the past four years, and city officials have made it a priority this winter to bring expenses back in line with revenue.
The subcommittee, which includes Councilman Dick Daniels and Councilwoman Olga Diaz, stressed that any cuts would have to be approved by the five-member council at a meeting scheduled for March 3.
While Daniels acknowledged that the cuts would be devastating, he said the proposal was the only realistic way to balance the budget without severely damaging the city's ability to fight crime, suppress fires and preserve its infrastructure.
"It's no pretty lady, but it's something we've got to look at because sooner or later we're going to have to get our budget balanced," said Daniels. "These are the kinds of things you have to consider when you're making cuts of this magnitude."
Critics have wanted to shut down the arts center for years, but supporters contend that such a move would cripple downtown revitalization efforts, include many hidden costs and break a promise to city voters who agreed in 1985 to pay for the $81 million facility.
Closing the center completely would save the city nearly $1.9 million per year, including more than $1 million for power and maintenance and nearly $900,000 for employee salaries and center programs.
City Manager Clay Phillips said the closure would require the arts center to lay off its 55 full-time employees. But Phillips said some employees might survive if the conference center wing, which typically turns a small profit, was allowed to continue operating.
Closing the city's pools, which are in Grape Day and Washington parks, would be among $770,000 in recreation cuts. When the council considered closing the pools last June, dozens of swimmers and their parents successfully lobbied to have the funding restored.
Closing the East Valley Community Center would deny the public access to its gymnasium and other amenities. Robin Bettin, the city's assistant director of community services, said recent attempts to get the YMCA or Boys & Girls Club to take over the center were unsuccessful because both nonprofits wanted to pay no rent and insisted the city pay for maintenance.
Closing the East Valley library branch would be among $1 million in cuts to the library's overall budget of $3 million. Laura Mitchell, the city's head librarian, said the cuts would scale back library services to no more than checking out books and handling computer sign-ups.

In this week's update we'll talk a little bit about the Elements and Classes featured in DoRA TCG.
Posted by UnknownGames on Apr 12th, 2014
Hey guys, it Ken. Sorry for the delayed update. This week's update will focus more on gameplay than game development. we'll be talking about the different Elements and Classes that are in DoRA and their attributes. Every card has an Element, but only a few card types are aligned to a Class.
Nature, Fire, Water, Light and Dark. Each of these Elements play a little bit different from each other.
Nature, Fire, Water, Light and Dark. Each of these Elements play a little bit different from each other. Every card has an element, except for Neutral cards.

MOOSIC – Alex Rodriguez' 20-day rehab from hip surgery in January is scheduled to end Sunday while playing for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders.
Or will it?
Once the time is up the Yankees will either have to activate the 37-year-old or place him back on the disabled list after a review by Major League Baseball. The latter might not be too far out of the question.
Rodriguez, who was scheduled to play at third base for the RailRiders on Saturday night against Louisville, was a late scratch from the position due to a tight left quad. About an hour before game time, he was moved to designated hitter for the RailRiders instead of manning the hot corner.
Rodriguez didn't look uncomfortable during his first three at-bats Saturday night. He was seen on the field stretching the area on his left leg and in the dugout between at-bats. In his first at-bat, he flied out to right field and jogged down to first base and didn't show any noticeable limp. During his second time up, he struck out looking and followed that with a strikeout swinging his third plate appearance.
Rodriguez ran the bases during Friday night's game at PNC Field, when he finished 2 for 4 with a pair of singles. On the second one, he hustled to second trying for a double. He slid into the base and was called out.
"That's what I woke up thinking," said Rodriguez, who finished Saturday 0 for 4 with three strikeouts. "It's the first time I slid like that in a long time in a game."
After Saturday's game, he was visibly down in the dumps saying that the reason is because of the quad, which bothered him a bit last week and he recovered from that so he's expecting to rebound this time as well. He's still expecting to join the Yankees in time for Monday's game in Texas and didn't know whether he would be playing on Sunday.
"(Sunday) might be a good treatment day and strap it up Monday," he said. "I'll talk to Joe (Girardi)…But my only focus is Monday in Dallas. Even if Monday's in jeopardy there's always Tuesday."
For the team he was playing with on Saturday night, the RailRiders lost to Louisville 2—1 in 10 innings.
Randy Ruiz hit home run No. 11 in the bottom of the second inning to account for the SWB run. David Huff got the start and threw well going six innings allowing just six hits and fanning a season-high seven for SWB.
The finale of the four-game series at PNC Field is Sunday afternoon at 1:05 when RailRiders righty Jose Ramirez (1-2, 4.24) goes against Louisville right-hander Daniel Corcino (4-11, 6.40). Tomorrow, the Toledo Mud Hens come to town for four games.

Four congressional representatives from western New York are sending a letter to the FAA. They want all airlines to stick to tougher pilot training requirements recently put in place.
Congresswoman Louise Slaughter along with Congressmen Brian Higgins, Chris Collins and Tom Reed wrote FAA Administrator Michael Huerta. They say some airlines are seeking exemptions from the new rules and that could put airline passenger safety at risk.
The representatives want all airlines to stick to the same rules in order for there to be one level of safety for everyone.
The new rules were part of legislation written after the crash of Flight 3407 outside Buffalo in 2009.

Winners of International Women's Day contests given prizes
CHENNAI: About 20 winners of various competitions conducted in connection with International Women's Day were presented prizes at a function in Queen Mary's College for Women here on Wednesday.
They were given prizes at the International Women's Day celebrations organised by the Chennai district administration and Chennai District Kalai Mandram. The winners had proved their mettle in various competitions, such as essay and slogan writing, poetry and dance on themes focussed on women's empowerment and women's rights.
Chennai Collector R. Jaya said it was for the second consecutive year that such competitions were conducted. The slogan writing contest alone got 300 entries.
Besides college students, the toppers in the competitions included a school student and an elderly woman. The event aimed at creating awareness of the women's contribution in every field, she said.
Ms. Jaya also honoured World carrom champion I. Ilavazhagi during the occasion. Four personalities spoke about the contribution of their respective fields to women's progress.
Tamil Nadu Social Welfare Board Chairperson Salma said women, including Avvaiyar and Karaikal Ammaiyar, had made their mark in Tamil literature several centuries ago.
Their writings were still relevant. On women's role in politics, she said their participation need not necessarily mean becoming members of political parties, but take initiatives to develop political awareness.
Madras High Court advocate Ajitha elaborated on the rights available to women through various laws. While Queen Mary's College principal R. Mathiazhagan highlighted men's role in women's development, professor of Anthropology at the University of Madras S. Sumathi dealt with education's contribution in women's empowerment. She said besides academic knowledge, education must bring in attitudinal change among women.
Cultural programmes also formed part of the celebrations.

The smaller part, the swivel, is attached to the head of the sail. The sail should have a piece of rigging wire sewn into the luff. Any sailmaker should be able to do that for you. The swivel is hooked onto the headstay by means of that pair of opposite facing hook things and then hauled aloft with the Jib halyard. The system will work best if it is a two part halyard. You really need to have it tight.
The tack of the sail is attached to the top of larger piece, the drum, and the drum is attached to wherever you usually attach the tack of the sail. The drum will have a furling line passing through the fairlead on the end of the lead arm and already wound around it. After the sail is hoisted, you pull the line and the sail winds up. It's pretty much that simple.

Michigan Fishing Report
Our fly shop hours are 8:00 am until 5:30 pm Monday through Saturday. Sunday we're open 8:00 am until 4:00 pm.
John Gouker reports: The Big Manistee is fishing really well for trout. Streamer fishing and swinging fry have both been really effective. Warm water fishing should also be good with the next warm up in weather.
Matt Barthels reports on May 5: It has been an odd steelhead spring steelhead season thus far. There are still fish around in the Manistee, but not in huge numbers. Most trips now we are targeting both steelhead and trout. The trout fishing has been solid on most area rivers. Larger streamers are moving some nice fish lately. The most consistent colors for me have been white, yellow, and olive. Fish have also been eating swung fry patterns most day. Trout fishing should continue to get better as we continue through the month.
Brent Borcherdt reports on April 22: Steelhead fishing on the Big Manistee is improving everyday, with more and more arriving by day. We are seeing fresh, dime-bright chrome fish with a mix of spawners and post-spawn fish. I can't believe I'm saying this in late April, but I think we are close to peak run with lots of more fish still to come. Natural fresh egg colors, stones, Caddis, and fry patterns have been the top flies. With warmer water temps, the trout fishing is really starting to pick up also. Streamers in a variety of colors and nymphing is the ticket. I have seen a few fish rise to stones and BWOs, but they are not keyed in on dries quiet yet. The trout opener is this weekend and we have everything you need whether your targeting trout or steelhead. See you out there!
Gary Melzer reports on April 20: For those of us that are still in the steelhead mode, Bear Creek is fishing well with fish still moving upstream and going to gravel. The Big Manistee has been slow, but is improving daily. The water is still colored up with about four feet of visibility. The next two weeks should show greater number of fish moving to gravel. For those of you would like to trout fish, the Big Manistee has been fishing extremely well with browns in the mid teens being landed. With trout opener being this weekend, things should heat up. Whatever you decide, just get out and enjoy yourself!
John Gouker reports on April 7: Fishing continues to improve. Bear Creek has been good with new fish arriving every day. The Big Manistee has been a bit hit-and-miss but new fish are showing up. The Little Manistee should see some good fishing in the next couple of weeks. The weir should start releasing fish in the next week or two. Spring should be good just a little later than normal.
Matt Barthels reports on April 5: Steelhead fishing on the Manistee had gotten off to a slower start than usual. However, with the bump in water levels and temps we have received a nice little push of fresh fish. With the forecast this week calling for rain and decent temps I would expect a good push of fish to show up. Top flies have been eggs in shades of orange, peach, and yellow, buggers, and fry/hex patterns.
Brent Borcerdt reports: Steelhead fishing is a little slower on all of our area waters. With a cold start to spring and low clear waters it feels like we are a couple weeks behind. That being said we are finding fish everyday. This run will break loose soon and I expect a great April. Streamer fishing on the upper Manistee is improving everyday and we have been turning good fish most days. Note the awesome rainbow Chris Lessway got and a brown with a 6" half eaten fish hanging out of his mouth that Matt Barthels got on a float we did on the upper Man. Two cool fish, a good day fishing with great friends. Come up and get out with us its a great time of year in Northern Michigan.
John Gouker reports: The fishing is still a little slower than normal but improving daily. It should really pick up as we get some warmer weather to increase our water temps. The fish have been eating a variety of patterns: eggs, buggers, stones, caddis, and pcp nymphs. Look for April and early May to be some really good fishing.
Matt Barthels reports on March 24:
Trout fishing in the upper Manistee was very productive yesterday. Fish were holding in deeper woody areas and were looking to put on some weight after a long winter. Larger yellow streamers such as dungeons and Conrad sculpins were the top producers.
Brent Borcherdt reports on March 10: With the warmer weather, my buddies and I took my raft to the upper Manistee. (Most launches are still snow-covered and impassable for vehicles and drift boats). It was incredible to strip streamers for trout again, and the day was warm and beautiful bringing visions of summer to all of us. Though fishing was slow, we got a fish and turned some good ones. Water temperatures are still low, but with the forecast this week, I believe we will melt most of the snow pack. By next week we should be getting our first real push of spring steelhead. Trout fishing will also improve with fish looking for a meal after a COLD winter.

HoopsHype Ramon Sessions rumors
Sam Amico: Wizards G Ramon Sessions tells @SiriusXMNBA he hasn't been given official update on John Wall. "It's tough...but I gotta be ready to go." Twitter @SamAmicoFSO
The Sacramento Kings today acquired guard Andre Miller from the Washington Wizards in exchange for guard Ramon Sessions, according to Kings General Manager Pete D'Alessandro. "Adding Andre bolsters our backcourt with one of the most prolific ball distributors in the game," said D'Alessandro. "He'll also provide veteran leadership to the lockeroom and a wealth of experience at the point guard position. We're excited to have him join the team. We also want to thank Ramon and wish him the best moving forward." NBA.com
Jorge Castillo: The #Wizards didn't complete any other trades before the deadline, per source. Miller for Sessions was it. Twitter @jorgeccastillo
Marcin Gortat: Welcome in DC Ramon Sessions!!! #dcrising #bigRun Twitter @MGortat
Marcin Gortat: It was truly an honor to play with Andre Miller !! Such a great person and bball player! Great roll model !! #trade #dcrising Twitter
Adrian Wojnarowski: Kings trading Ramon Sessions to Washington for Andre Miller, source tells Yahoo. Twitter @WojYahooNBA
Among cheap point guard options, Sacramento's Ramon Sessions has been mentioned in trade talks, according to one of the GMs. But he's shooting just 34 percent this season and is a career 31 percent shooter from three-point range. Miami Herald
David Aldridge: Hearing Wizards have turned their attention from Jameer Nelson to trying to pry Ramon Sessions from Kings. Nothing imminent. Twitter @daldridgetnt
Sessions has been the subject of trade talk after starting the season slowly and then missing time because of a back injury. The speculation doesn't bother Sessions, who signed a two-year contract before the season. The trade deadline is Feb. 19. "For me, it seems I'm always brought up around the deadline," Sessions said. "I just look at it as one of those things where another team wants me. I've been around a little bit. It's a business and you can't control what happens around the trade deadline if something is going to happen or not. I just take it day by day." Sacramento Bee
Adrian Wojnarowski: Yahoo Sources: Charlotte's pursuing trade avenues to replace Kemba Walker, with Sacramento's Ramon Sessions and Heat's Norris Cole on radar. Twitter @WojYahooNBA
Jason Jones: Charlotte targeting Sessions makes sense, he played there last season. Kings have explored dealing Sessions Twitter @mr_jasonjones
Under this much pressure, pipes and ventilation ducts are prone to burst. But Ramon Sessions can't think about the expectations he's yet to reach, or else it might do him more harm than good. "I've been doing this for eight years," Sessions told Cowbell Kingdom last week. "I'm going to continue to do what I do. And the rest of it, it is what it is." Cowbell Kingdom
James Ham: Carl Landry is out for tomorrow's Kings/Blazers game. DeMarcus Cousins, Rudy Gay and Ramon Sessions are all questionable. Twitter @James_Ham
While nothing the magnitude of last season's trade for Rudy Gay is imminent, the Kings are exploring trades, with backup point guard Ramon Sessions the most likely candidate to be dealt. According to a league source, the Kings discussed a deal that would have sent Sessions to the Los Angeles Clippers for guard Jordan Farmar. Sessions has missed the last 10 games because of a low back strain. Sacramento Bee
Sean Cunningham: Ramon Sessions (back strain) and Omri Casspi (knee bone contusion) have been ruled out for tomorrow vs. #Thunder. #NBAKings Twitter @News10Sean

We're flying down to Annapolis tomorrow for the sea trial (on Tuesday) of our prospective Passport 40! It should be interesting - they are predicting 25-30kts of wind, gusts to 35kts and seas of 4 feet and there's a small craft advisory. I was hoping for under 10kts as I wanted to see how the boat would do in light air (being so heavy). Instead we'll be tucking in a reef or two. It should be fun though. The current owner is hiring a pro captain instead of coming down himself, and the surveyor and our broker, both highly seasoned sailors, will all be on board. We can't wait!

Different strokes for different folks
PEOPLE from all corners have made Madurai their home and hearth
As dawn breaks, overnight trains spew dishevelled humankind at the Madurai Railway Junction. The natives walk away in a brisk pace to the Periyar bus stand or autorickshaw stand with confidence and purpose. But quite a few others from other
States and faraway lands collect themselves and their luggage on a different soil where they encounter a tongue twister of a language as they squeeze their way out through a motley crowd of paging people, metal detectors and a whole lot of eagerly waiting crowd to 'receive' them.

On Monday New York Magazine revealed the covers to their annual Yesteryear Issue and celebrated NYC's historical music scene with eight front-page images, one of which features a 17-year-old, fresh-faced Jay Z.
The striking photo was taken on January 21, 1987, by Edwin "PHADE" Sacasa, at his birthday party at the Jamaica Colosseum Mall in Queens, New York.
Our Jay Z cover: http://t.co/HnsWwr4j9N pic.twitter.com/0vF4cBsbon
— New York Magazine (@NYMag) March 24, 2014
At the time Jay wasn't the star that we know now, but Sacasa was the man, a New York graffiti master and co-founder of early hip-hop fashion icons the Shirt Kings. In the 1980s, the Shirt Kings rose to fame thanks to their customized t-shirts that took famous cartoon characters like Mickey Mouse and the Pink Panther and made them a little more hip-hop friendly, with gold teeth and Fila track suits. Their designs were celebrated not just among hip-hop fans, but rappers as well; including Jay's former mentor Jaz-O.
"It was my birthday party, so a lot of people showed up [DJ] Red Alert, Jaz-O, the Afros, a lot of cats from Hollis, Queens showed up," Sacasa recalled. "Jay just happened to be there with Jaz-O. He was a personal friend of the Shirt Kings."
Sacasa met Jay when he was 14 years old after he was introduced by his Shirt King partner Nike, who lived in the same Marcy Project building as Young Hov. The photo was taken two years before Jigga made his first rap appearance on Jaz's "Hawaiian Sophie" single in 1989, but Sacasa and the Shirt Kings already treated Jay like rap royalty.
"In taking that picture, I knew I was capturing the moment because hanging out with this guy since young I already knew that he had phenomenal skills," Sacasa said. "He was better than anybody that was out… he was already a star in my eyes since he was a kid."
Jay would eventually become a huge rap star, music mogul and fashion icon who helped popularize platinum jewelry, button-up shirts and his own Roc-A-Wear brand. Sacasa says that even back in the '80s, Hov had an impeccable sense of style and he captured all in his now-famous cover image.
"That leather jacket, nobody would even dare wear a [Cincinnati Reds] hat in New York, so he was already creating his own lane and his own fashion statements," he said. "He had a love of clothes and a love of art, which I believe drew him to hang around the Shirt Kings a lot."
There was another picture that Sacasa took that night, one that doesn't appear on the cover of New York Magazine, but lives in Edwin's book "Shirt Kings: Pioneers of Hip Hop Fashion." If you let the Sacasa tell it, the photos from that winter night in 1987 foreshadowed hip-hop's most storied rise to power.
"If you look in my book you'll see a center spread-type shot of the whole birthday party and you'll see Jay-Z is on top. He stood on a chair, he's six feet, but he still stood on a chair and got on top of the whole crowd," Sacasa remembered. "That said a lot to me, that said that this guy, he's destined to be on top some way somehow."

The MLS Cup will remain at a neutral venue according to league commissioner Don Gabrer.
There was talk that the cup final would be held at the home stadium of the higher-seeded team playing in the final but the league has decided against it says Garber.
"Following a detailed review and careful analysis of both options, we have elected to continue with a neutral-site format for MLS Cup 2010," Garber said in a release.
"We believe this format will provide an exciting environment for our fans while also allowing the necessary planning time for our key constituents. We will continue to assess the possibility of playing MLS Cup at the home stadium of the higher seeded team in the future."
Last season's final between Real Salt Lake and LA Galaxy was held at Seattle's Qwest Field but the venue for the 2010 final is yet to be decided.

Thomas À Kempis(1379/1380–1471)
Thomas à Kempis, the writer on asceticism and probable author of The Imitation of Christ, was born in Kempen, near Düsseldorf, Germany. He belonged to the Brethren of the Common Life, a group that was much influenced by Jan van Ruysbroeck and whose organization centered on the Windesheim community. The major part of Thomas's life was spent at the Augustinian monastery of St. Agnes, near Zwolle.
Thomas's writings on the interior life and ways of practicing virtue are not philosophical or theoretical but are purely practical in intent. This is true also of The Imitation of Christ, about whose authorship there has been much dispute. It is not altogether certain that the work, really a set of four treatises, should be attributed to Thomas. The oldest manuscripts date from about 1422 and contain only the first book...

Dear Bruce:
My father-in-law will soon be going into a full-care facility. He has never had a will, as he believes that because everything is in his name and my wife's name (his daughter), everything will be fine. I don't think this is right, and it doesn't cost that much to have a will drawn up to make sure that everything is protected. There are no other relatives who can come forward and claim anything, so he thinks he's set. How can I convince him that he's wrong?
— Reader, via email
Dear Reader:
You and I agree on this one. There is no excuse not to have a properly drawn and executed will. He may be right that everything will pass on to his daughter through joint tenancy and right of survivorship. The will serves as a backup in the event they don't. For the few dollars that a simple will costs, it's just plain silly to take the chance that something could go wrong. After all, once you are gone, you are not around to straighten the problem out. The best thing you can do for someone you love is to have a will.
Dear Bruce:
Several years ago, I got myself into some financial trouble and relied on credit cards to bail me out. Unfortunately, I ran them up quite high, and they have gone into collection. I now have money to pay these debts off but am not sure how to go about it. It seems that these debts have gone to another company, not the original with which I opened the accounts. Who am I supposed to pay? Should I pay the company that is contacting me now or the original company? What is the best way to get these paid off and out of my life once and for all?
— Reader, via email
Dear Reader:
If the collection agency has purchased this debt from the original credit-card company, then they are the ones with which you should deal. They are representing the credit-card company, and for you to pay it off, you will have to work with them. Despite the fact that you are paying these debts off, they will not disappear from your credit report. You have already damaged your credit, and it will show for some time. Every agreement you make with these agencies needs to be confirmed in writing before any money changes hands. These black marks will stay with you, and despite the fact that there are companies out there that say they can remove them from your report, trust me, it can't be done.
Most of us have made these mistakes in the past, but there is life after bad credit. Congratulations on doing the proper thing and paying off these debts.

HOUSTON A man accused of trying to lure an Alief ISD 8th-grader into his car was arrested Monday morning.
The student at Holub Middle School told his parents a man in a white 2-door Chevy Cavalier had been following him to school every day for a week. He said he spotted the vehicle every morning around 7:15 on Bissonnet near Dairy Ashford.
Thursday morning, the man stopped in a parking lot and got out to try and get him to get in to the car with him, said Alief ISD spokesperson Susan Castro. The boy told him, No.
The boy was able to get the suspect s license plate number the following day so police set up a sting Monday morning.
The suspect showed up again like clockwork and tried to entice the boy, according to police. They were watching with binoculars and they quickly moved in to arrest Roberto Orellana, 27.
While in handcuffs, Orellana denied that he blew the boy kisses and tried to lure him into his car.
In Spanish, he explained that we looked at him. My female cousin and myself were just playing, but nothing more.
Orellana claimed that he drove down Bissonnet daily to drop his cousin off and never followed the boy.
But the suspect s cousin gave a statement to police that backs up the boy s story.
Orellana is charged with felony enticement.
It s just a classic case of a child doing the right thing when faced with stranger danger, said Castro. We just can t overemphasize enough: parents please talk with your children.

Hi everyone
I use Rapier 4.2.0 but can't find any appropriate information about this version. I have issues with banners for my tv series. The naming I use is the following:
Series / Friends /
-- banner.jpg
-- fanart.jpg
-- Season 1 /
-- Season 2 /
The fanart works great but in the banner list view the banners won't be displayed. Any suggestions about this one?

Found it. It was already set correct. But now I tried to switch OFF the option to use local images. Now it seems to work. No idea why…
But still I have issues with movie posters. I have them named as folder.jpg and stored in the appropriate folder of the movie file. Like this:
Movies / Blade Runner (1982) /
-- Blade Runner (1982).iso
-- folder.jpg
-- fanart.jpg
The fanart images work fine. But XBMC does not load folder.jpg as the movie's poster image. If I add a thumbnail to a movie it saves the image in the thumbs cache. Why does the method of storing the thumbnails in die movies folders not work properly?

what version of XBMC are you using?
the latest version of XBMC and fanart solely uses remote images.
i would say, go into the fanart background addon, and reset the files. there is an option to delete all images, and re-download them again.

Mars Curiosity DAN
September 6, 2012
The heritage for investigations with the Dynamic Albedo of Neutrons instrument on NASA's Curiosity rover comes from NASA's Odyssey orbiter. The orbiter has performed global mapping of neutrons, showing varying degrees of hydrogen in the Martian soil as indicated on this chart. The hydrogen is an indicator of the presence of water. Now, Curiosity will continue this research on the ground at Gale Crater. In addition to using neutrons that are produced by galactic cosmic rays, as was the case with Odyssey, the DAN can generate pulses of neutrons on its own. This will contribute to more efficient studies of water-bearing minerals along Curiosity's path through Gale Crater. Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Russian Space Research Institute

What Is The Play It Safe Ocean City
PLAY IT SAFE sponsors special alcohol and drug-free events during June honoring high school graduates who choose to celebrate their graduation in Ocean City, Maryland.
The Mayor of Ocean City
You have passed a major milestone with your recent graduation from high school now it is time to relax and have some fun and where better to do that than right here in Ocean City, Maryland!
I remember very well the summer of 1967 when I, like you today, visited Ocean City with my friends and classmates to celebrate our graduation. It was a great time to be in Ocean City and although the town may look just a little bit different today it still features the same beach, boardwalk and sense of excitement that we enjoyed back in "The Day".
Now it is your turn to experience that new found sense of freedom and all of the fun and excitement o f Ocean City. It is a time to reminisce with your friends and to begin to talk about the future as you experience days on the beach and nights out on the boardwalk.
We encourage you to enjoy all of the great alcohol free events offered by the Play It Safe Program while you are here celebrating in Ocean City. This is your week to shine in the Ocean City Sun and we hope that is a safe experience that you will remember for a lifetime!
Rick Meehan
Mayor Town of Ocean City.

Genre: Alternative/Alt. Rock, Rock
Sometimes unexpected things come from unexpected places. When you think of a hot bed for up and coming alternative rock bands, Nashville isn't exactly what comes to mind; but in the case of The Nearly Deads, they're making a trend of their own. Formed in early 2010, Nearly Deads founding members Steve Tobi (Guitar),Theresa Jeanne (Vocals/Keys), and Cory Walen (Drums) came together in Tampa. Quickly realizing their local market could only take them so far, they headed north and relocated to Nashville, TN.…

I have been using Plex Media Server on my LG TV for the past one month. PMS 0.9.5.2 is running on my Windows desktop. This PC and the TV are connected LAN Wired through Linksys WRT160Nv2. Everything is working fine and i always refer to Plex forums for the current setup. It's being really useful.
Yesterday I installed Plex on my iPhone & iPad. It works wonderful over wifi but not on 3G. I have gone through your guide below
and also assisted by your team in Plex Chat, but I could not get it resolved.
I did a portforwarding. Not sure if that is right.
I'm getting the error "Myplex was unable to connect to Server".
Attached router setting i followed. It would be great if plex team could help me on this issue.
