HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By John Reynolds, mediaweek.co.uk, Tuesday, 24 April 2012 09:12AM
Net income for the world's largest social network fell slightly to $205m as costs nearly doubled to $677m.
Marketing and sales spend was up from $68m to $159m while research and development costs were up from $57m to $153m in the period.
The fall in profits comes ahead of the highly-anticipated float of the social media giant in May and could be a concern for potential investors.
The number of monthly active users on Facebook rose to 901 million, up from 678 million the previous year. Of these, Facebook said 488 million used Facebook mobile products.
The filling also reveals that Facebook agreed a $200m break-up fee to Instagram should its $1bn purchase fail to go through, and paid $300m and 23 million shares for the start-up.
Further disclosures in the filing include staff level growing by about 1,100 employees to 3,539 in the year.

Decision-Making in Relationships: Knowing When to Give In or Dig InOctober 2, 2009 • Contributed by Pamela Lipe, MS, LP
Jonathan and Michelle came into my consulting office looking for someone to help them make a decision about Thanksgiving with Jonathan's parents. Jonathan said Thanksgiving was his mother's favorite holiday. After dinner, she would drive the men out of her kitchen, and they would then watch the game while she cleaned up. When Jonathan and Michelle were married two years ago, Michelle was brought into the family fold and treated by his parents as one of the children. She loved Jonathan's parents but was taken back when his mother expected her to participate in the preparation and clean up while the boys watched football. Though Michelle wanted to relax and watch the game, too, she decided to go along with Jonathan's family tradition the first two years. This resulted in her feeling resentful toward both him and his family.
In our sessions, I encouraged them to consider three components of decision-making in relationships. Being mindful of these elements can help you know when to give in and when to persevere.
The three aspects of a relationship that good decision-makers keep in mind are:
- The value of the relationship (in this case, the in-laws and the marriage)
- The importance of the issue at hand (in this case, how to handle the clean-up and watch the football game)
- Personal integrity (in this case, Michelle's resentment)
Good decision-makers weigh these three values when they have difficulty deciding whether to give in or dig in. If the relationship is the most important element, for example, you might consider compromising or giving in. On the other hand, if the issue at hand is the most important, then stick with your side of the argument and present the importance of the issue. You may decide to compromise if the other person presents reasonable data. The third aspect, integrity, involves deciding how much of your honor is at stake. If going along with the other person means you have crossed your own line for honesty and you feel your personal reputation is at stake, you are less likely to compromise or give in.
What should Michelle do? Her marriage is important, as is her relationship with her mother-in-law. However, she also wants to relax and enjoy Thanksgiving. She has no investment in winning this argument and does not see this situation as having anything to do with her honor. It came down to relationships versus rest for her. Michelle decided to press for compromise—both from her husband and her mother-in-law. She said she would like him to help the two women for part of the cooking or clean-up so she could finish up in time for the game.
When Michelle focused on the things that were most important to her, her attitude opened, enabling her to compromise and to assert and validate her needs.
Jonathan said he didn't care so much about the issue and did not feel his integrity was on the line. He did care about his relationships with Michelle and his mother. Just like Michelle, he could more clearly decide where to put his energy after examining the three aspects of decision-making in relationships: relationship, issue (content), and integrity.

"However, she really wants to relax and not do any work on Thanksgiving."
Really? This is framed as if Michelle is being selfish and not wanting to contribute, when what I see is a clear issue of sexist gender roles. I would most certainly not be comfortable with this arrangement were my mother-in-law to suggest it. I would suggest that we all clean up, or that she ask for a couple volunteers (and I might volunteer–the issue is not the clean-up, but the expectation that it is "women's work").

Joseph Mlinar of the Town of Montana is accused of using an ax handle to strike a 16-year-old boy in the head on June 14th. Mlinar serves on the Alma School board and is a town board supervisor in Montana. Circuit Judge Joseph Boles was assigned to the case in place of Buffalo County Circuit Judge James Duvall who recused himself, saying he was acquainted with the Mlinar family. Mlinar and his defense attorney, Richard White of Eau Claire, waived the time limit for requesting a preliminary hearing to determine if there is probable cause and sufficient evidence to bring the case to trial. Boles scheduled a conference hearing by telephone on Sept. 16th to set a date for Mlinar's next hearing in circuit court. Mlinar was free without bond or restrictive conditions.

Video: OK State's Marcus Smart Pulls Double Flop
Much to our relief, it appears as though Big 12 officials have more than caught on to Oklahoma State star Marcus Smart's penchant for flopping.
At one juncture of Monday's triple OT loss to Iowa State, Smart was matched up on defense against Cyclones guard DeAndre Kane. Kane made room for himself with his hips, and Smart went flying as if he'd been decked by an uppercut.
The official situated close by behind the baseline correctly let the play continue. Kane drove to the hole, and Smart - who got back on his feet - exaggerated contact again, but to no avail; the aforementioned official whistled him for a blocking foul.
Take a bow, good sir. You've upheld the karmic forces of the college basketball universe.

Chewbacca vs. TSA: Peter Mayhew in airport lightsaber battle after Comic-Con Denver
Peter Mayhew, the actor who plays Chewbacca in the "Star Wars" films, had his lightsaber-styled cane confiscated by the TSA at the airport as he traveled home following an appearance at the Denver Comic-Con.
Mayhew took to Twitter amid the confrontation to complain the TSA officers "won't allow me through the airport with me cane!" After Mayhew posted multiple photos from the airport security check, the TSA relented and restored the lightsaber -- uh, cane -- to its rightful owner.
The 7-foot, 3-inch tall Mayhew tweeted, "Giant man need giant cane.. small cane snap like toothpick.... besides.. my light saber cane is just cool.. I would miss it.."
After arriving in Dallas, Mayhew tweeted again applauding American Airlines for checking on the situation. He explains the issue was with the Transportation Security Administration officers and had nothing to do with his chosen airline. "I'm a million-miler on American and they are a class act," Mayhew writes.
Note to TSA: Always let the Wookiee win.

This summer, try something different on the grill from the usual burgers or hot dogs.
Run down to your local seafood supplier (or your boat!) and throw some fish, shrimp, crab, lobster or oysters on the grill.
Here are some tips and tricks from local grillers.
Happy grilling!
Overcooking the crab or lobster is one of the main mistakes home cooks make, said Barry Lofton, Director of Culinary Innovation for Joe's Crab Shack.
"Keep the flavor simple," Lofton said. "If you think it needs a few more minutes to cook, it's probably done."
Before even getting your crustacean sizzling on the grill, choose wisely, Lofton said.
Most crab offered to the public will usually be precooked, he said. The meat shouldn't smell like anything.
If it smells like ammonia, in particular, its gone bad, Lofton said.
"Let your nose be your guide," he said.
If the crab is precooked, you simply need to heat it through and let the grill add some smoky flavor.
If lobster is what you're craving, always buy it live or buy a tail removed from the body. When lobsters die, an enzyme causes it to spoil quickly, so fresh is best.
Look for "frisky" lobsters that can hold its claws up on its own, Lofton said.
A good trick when seafood shopping is to go to a busy seafood market: it's likely to turn product quickly.
To grill the lobster, either place it on the grill in its shell, or split it in half and place the meat side first on the grill.
A whole lobster should take about 7 to 8 minutes. Grill temperature is key — it should be around 400 to 450 degrees.
If you split the lobster, let the cut side cook before turning it over with the shell side down. You can then baste it. Lofton recommended garlic or herb butter.
"It will also pick up some nice chargrilled flavor from the grill," Lofton said.
If you're using a marinade, take care with anything with oil in it. It could cause the grill to flare.
Your crustacean shouldn't need long in the marinade. About 30 minutes is a good max, Lofton said.
For your marinade or seasoning, aim for more delicate flavors to go with meat.
"You don't want something that will overpower the crab or lobster," Lofton said.
Fish is relatively simple to grill, but does require some prep, said Richard Querney, owner of Sharkbite, a Navarre food stand.
Make sure to either use the fish within a few days of catching or purchasing it, or freeze it, he suggested.
When buying fish, make sure it smells like the ocean, but not like fish. It shouldn't be discolored or sticky.
The fish shouldn't be over a few days old, unless you've frozen it.
Grill temperature is the most important factor, Querney said. It should be between 375 and 400 degrees.
Cook it too cool (under 375 degrees) and you'll get a mushy fish. Too hot, and your fish will dry out.
"When it's done, you should be able to take a fork and flake it apart," he said.
Make sure your grill is properly heated before putting your fish on. It'll stick to the grill if it's not the proper temperature.
For a blackened fish, particularly Mahi, Querney suggested seasoning it with salt and pepper and then applying a high flame.
It's what's on the fish that makes the dish though, Querney said.
People can be reluctant to try new things. By pairing some unique flavors — like mango-peach chutney — you make the fish stand out.
"It's about imagining what flavors you like and putting them together," he said.
The key to grilling good oysters starts before you even start cooking the mollusks, said Robert Martin of Bayou Bill's Crab House.
Grilled oysters are the Crab House's most popular appetizer.
"(Customers will) order a dozen and almost every time get another dozen," Martin said.
The oysters should be as fresh as possible.
Their shells should be a consistent size. A thicker shell works best, Martin said, likening it to a pot that will cook the oyster with its juices.
"It'll heat up the oyster to the perfect temperature," Martin said.
The hotter the coals on the grill, the better, Martin said.
When shucking the oysters, take care not to cut the oyster and let out its juice.
Once you see the oysters "moving in their juices," that's when you want to put your seasoning on the mollusks.
Martin recommended garlic, butter, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper and parmesan.
The mixture helps prevent a common mistake: letting the oyster dry out.
Grilling them removes the risk of a bad oyster. It also gives them a great flavor profile, Martin said.
"You get the saltiness of the oyster, then taste of the smokiness and just a hint of parmesan cheese," he said.

Food Pantry needs to restock
The Salvation Army food pantry in Charleston is running low. The shelves are sparse with food and many families are still inquiring about help, so donations are appreciated to help the pantry stock up. The June 29 storms had a big impact on the Salvation Army and drained some of its resources. Big food drives are planned by Putnam and Kanawha County schools this fall, but the Salvation Army could use help in the meantime.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- Gov. Nikki Haley's veto of a bill intended to help South Carolina's public libraries keep disrupters out may stand because of a timing issue.
The bill allows a misdemeanor trespassing charge against people who return to a library before their written warning to stay away expires.
York County Library Director Colleen Kaphengst says libraries need the legal support to restrict an increasing number of misbehaving patrons.
Haley's veto said the measure gives library staff too much authority to keep people out of a publicly funded facility.
The Senate voted 39-3 to override the veto. But the vote occurred on the last day of the legislative session, after the House already had gone home. An override requires a two-thirds vote in both chambers.

St. Petersburg, Fla. (January 23, 2008) – The Saint Leo University women's basketball team (8-9, 1-5 SSC) fell 98-72 to Eckerd College (11-6, 1-5 SSC) on Wednesday night in Sunshine State Conference action at Eckerd's McArthur Center.
The Lions were led by senior Latasha Lawrence (Jacksonville, Fla.), as she scored a team-high 15 points. Four Eckerd players scored in double figures to lead the Tritons to their third straight win over the Lions dating back to last season. Eckerd junior Olivia Nagle led all scorers with 27 points on 10-of-14 shooting.
The game started out close, as there were 12 lead changes in the opening half. The Lions led by eight with 8:38 left in the opening half, but Eckerd used a 9-0 run to lead by one. After the lead exchanged hands four more times in the closing minutes of the first half, the Tritons scored the final six points to take a 41-38 lead at half-time.
Eckerd blew the game wide open in the second half, outscoring Saint Leo 57-34. The Tritons led by as many as 29 points in the second frame, as Nagle scored 17 of her game-high 27 points after the half-time break.
The Tritons were red hot from the field throughout the night, finishing 61.3% (38-of-62) from the field. Eckerd also turned Saint Leo's 25 turnovers into 39 points compared to the Lions' 20 points off of the Tritons' 21 turnovers. Eckerd's defense totaled 18 steals in the contest, and the Tritons had a commanding 50-26 advantage in points in the paint.
The Lions return to the hardwood on Saturday with a trip to Miami Shores, Fla. to face Barry University in another SSC match-up. Opening tip for the women's game is at 2:00 p.m. at Barry's Health and Sports Center.

The Government has been forced to issue extra information to investors on the potential risks of buying into Mighty River Power.
The share float has been temporarily put on hold and investors who have already paid for a slice of the state-owned enterprise can now ask for their money back.
Those are just some of the flow-on effects after Labour and the
Greens warned they would put power pricing under government control
if they win next year's election.
The Government tonight released a disclosure document which outlines the potential risks of a change of government and a change of policy to bring the electricity system under more state control.
In doing so, they have also had to suspend the Mighty River Power share offer website until midnight and allow investors who have put money in to get it back if they want.
When the share offer opened last Monday, it was accompanied by a list of potential risks.
And while regulatory reforms were mentioned, a radical
Opposition overhaul of the electricity system was not.
"If we had known about this a few weeks ago, we would have put it in the original offer document. But Labour and the Greens chose to announce their proposal after the share offer had opened," said Prime Minister John Key.
The Opposition's policy would effectively remove the right of private companies to set power prices.
Labour deputy leader Grant Robertson said Labour has launched this policy "so that consumers are back at the centre of the electricity industry".
But the sharemarket was spooked, with listed energy companies shedding hundreds of millions of dollars last week.
The Government was left with no option but to act, very much to its annoyance, says ONE News Political Editor Corin Dann.
What are investors warned of?
In the new supplementary disclosure document issued, investors are warned that the Opposition announcement increases regulatory uncertainty for Mighty River Power, and any future change in the electricity industry may have an adverse effect on the value of Mighty River Power shares.
Key accepts the new information could be confusing for investors.
However, he would not be drawn on whether the Opposition was trying to spike the sale.
"No, because at the end of the day I've come to expect the unpredictable from our far left Opposition, and at the end of the day there will be more of it over the course of the next 18 months," Key said.
Labour, however, is unrepentant about the timing of its policy.
"We recognise that it may affect the share price and it's important that people know that. That's why we've been up front, that's why we're 18 months in front of the election saying we are going to make changes to the electricity industry," Robertson said.
Corin Dann says the big question now is what impact the Opposition's plan will have on the final price the Government gets for the shares.
Investors who have already paid for shares and want their money
back have five working days, until May 1.
People can call 0800 90 30 90 or go to the website, mightyrivershares.govt.nz, which will be back up and running just after midnight.
Dann said it is important to note that this sales process is continuing and that investors still have another couple of weeks to make up their minds on what to do.
He said Mighty River Power will list on the sharemarket on May 10 as planned "but clearly a huge disruption for the Government, a lot of rhetoric being thrown around now at Labour and the Greens with the Prime Minister saying they were the far left."
That is a change and "certainly things have been ramped up" at Parliament, Dann said.

Value-Based Purchasing: Creating a Culture of Accountability
Improve HCAHPS and quality of care measures under Value-Based Purchasing
Tuesday, August 20, 2013
12:00 p.m.–
1:30 p.m. Eastern
The reality is that hospitals are publicly posting their performance of key quality measures. For example, it is easy to find the number of patients at your hospital that reported their pain was "always" well controlled, as opposed to "usually," "sometimes" or "never." A hospital can implement proven practices to bring patients' perceptions of quality up to the highest level on pain control and other key measures. Getting patients to cite that they always experienced high-quality care requires caregivers to consistently employ evidence-based practices. This creates a culture of accountability, where individuals can be relied upon to execute evidence-based best practices as the standard.
This webinar will describe how leading organizations have successfully improved both HCAHPS and process of care measures under Value-Based Purchasing by focusing not only on process improvement, but also on the human behavioral sciences, enthusiasm and commitment to implementing best practices.

Pinocchio Test: Debt ceiling 'baloney'
Tea Party counters Obama claim about what bills government must pay
Monday, President Obama said Congress needed to raise the debt ceiling so America could pay its bills. A Tea Party claim challenged the President, calling that "baloney."
At a press conference, the President said, "If congressional Republicans refuse to pay America's bills on time, Social Security checks and veterans' benefits will be delayed. We might not be able to pay our troops or honor our contracts with small business owners."
The chair of the Tea Party Express said that wasn't the case.
"It is pure baloney to say we have to pay the bills for things Congress has already approved," said Amy Kremer. "We are drawing the line on future spending, not the debt or obligations to Social Security, Medicare and the military, which can all be met without an immediate rise in the debt ceiling."
The Washington Post (which is the parent company of KSAT-12) fact checked that statement. It found the Tea Party claim was not true. You can see their full review here.

Evolutionary biology, mysteriously missing from the list of undergraduate subjects eligible for a US federal grant, has been reinstated after a flurry of protest.
David Dunn of the Department of Education says its absence was the result of a misunderstanding. "As soon as the omission came to our attention, we took steps to correct it." However, the incident has left pro-evolution campaigners wondering whether evolutionary biology was deliberately left out by people who find Darwinian evolution at odds with their religious beliefs.
"There are well-funded efforts in this country that have been inappropriately attempting to attack the teaching of evolutionary biology on what appear to be religious grounds," physicist Lawrence Krauss of Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, wrote to the Department of Education.
Becky Timmons of the Washington DC-based American Council on Education says the council accepts the department's explanation. "If it was deliberate, it is certainly the ...

2010 Top Gear Awards: Cabriolet of the Year
Gorgeous 440bhp V8 Maserati GranCabrio shatters the peace in rural China...
Posted: 14 Jan 2011
The temperature begins to plummet as dusk sets in, and the last few shards of sunlight fire through only the highest outcrops of distant trees. With the Maserati's heaters blasting hot air into sleepy faces, we begin our slow and circuitous descent. Time to put the roof up and the radio on - an unlikely medley of Chinese and highly contemporary British pop; no more strange a reminder of China's bemusing cultural collisions can there be than listening to the debut single of 2009's X Factor winner, Joe McElderry, while weaving TopGear's award-winning Maserati GranCabrio through a remote rural village in northern Hebei Province.

I'm not going to lie, I didn't get much from the video. Make a longer version and show the benefits of using this application compared to not using it.
However, as an idea I'm intrigued. My Android has all sorts of applications to interact with my Mac and this looks like it could be a nifty addition, especially if I could use my Android with my work laptop to speed processes up.
I do like the idea, but in reality, in my case, it would not be practical as that's sort of what I do with my G13

Ethics movies about war try to uncover the boundaries that all military must endure when they engage the enemy. Ethics are the foundation for all war movies, as soldiers go out to the battlefield and encounter unimaginable cruelty. War movies are more than just the bullets, bombs and blood for troops who have to deal with many ethical issues as they try and win the battle while holding onto their compassion and humanity. Movies are the best medium to show the delicate balance between war and ethicsy. Ethics movies about war take the issues to the limit as the drama of the battlefield plays out for audiences to see.

I am going to be starting another saloon car from 1936. This time it is going to be a Bentley. I will be taking it from start to finish, naturally, and am anticipating about a 2 month build on this one. I will be doing some new things, new methods, and incorrperating working steering, and if someone has 3-D drawings of the engine for this and a 3-D printer they can make me a working engine, (in my dreams). I will also be incorrperating additional information on other builds as I go along as they relate to the construction of this car. I will also be making modifications to the car that are not on the origional as shown below but are common to the 1936 Bentley.
So, sit back and follow along and comment along the way whether good or bad.....critical suggestions are the way to good models since I can miss things or always make them better when incorrect areas are brought to light.
I am still in need of good chassis drawings and engine information on this.

The works are comprised of deconstructed photographs of popular sport moments mashed together with pictures of sculptures from the period of National Socialism (1933 – 1945). There is something so enchanting about the combination, especially the contrast of the grainy images and the polished marble. - Jeanine Pesce

Regardless of what happens today Michigan Basketball is ahead of schedule.
sparty42 and Theo212 both get 2 minutes for bad trash talking.
This is going to be a great game for the state of Michigan. and I will be first in line to get tickets once they go on sale.
Well Said Chirs.
The one good thing about a fall from grace is the ride back up.
Good times are ahead.
BTW Congrats to MSU. I do hope they stay competitive and make this game one of the best in the country as well as bring the Big Ten as a whole back up to the top.
GO BLUE!! Now and forever!!!
Good Luck Jim.
I couldn't agree more Jim. Great article.
I am so tired of the #1 jersey incident being thrown in Coach Rods face. What a joke. Get all the facts man. I hate selective reporting.
BTW great find Chris. Wisconsin fan is no better then Buckeye Fan.
This Blog was brought to you by the folks at Arbor Mortgage that probably prepared your last mortgage while drinking Ice Cold Miller Lite at Buffalo WIld Wings.
Time to get a new lawyer Rich Rod.
correction. He usually podcasts or archivehis interviews on Mlive.
Hey karpat74
I stopped listening to Huge becasue i could not stand listening to Commercials for 3 hours straight. I feel like I am listening to a used Car Salesman on the air when I listen to him.
He does have some good interviews. but he usually live streams it and it coems with out the plugs most of the time.
i invite everyone to swich to 1130 or 1270 when this infomercial comes on everyday.
This Vitamin Water Blog was brought to you by Ice Cold Miller Lite and Buffalo Wild WIngs.
Remember when Reading the Vitamin Water Huge Blog by Ice Cold Miller Lite to always do so with an Ice Cold Miller lite and some delicious Wings from Buffalo Wild Wings.
You can always read this blog on Mlive.com. which is brought to you by Arbor Mortgage and Ice Cold Miller Lite. Don't forget to call the Ice Cold Miller Lite Hotline brought to you by Vitamin Water and Ice Cold Miller Lite.
BTW it it 4:34 pm and I am listening to AM 1270 in the D!!!!
You make Mike V. sound good.
This is the straw that broke the camels back for me. I am done with WTKA and the Huge show. All I like is the Recruiting round up with Sam Webb and that is archived on there web site. I have a hard time listening to the "huge" show to begin with. If I am lucky he talks sports in between his plug for Miller Lite that he plugs every 30 seconds and the plug itself lasts 25 seconds.
Here is what I hear in my head when I think of Bill.
" you can always read my Miller Lite blog on Milve.com. Its brought to you buy the Miller Lite/ Viteman Water/Buffalo Wild Wings Inbox that is also brought to you buy Miller Lite/Viteman Water and Buffalo WIld WIngs. now I will check the Miller Lite/ Buffalo WIld WIng Inbox brought to you by Ice Cold Miller Lite. Oh wait time for us to go to commercial be right back to read the Miller Lite Inbox by Vitaman Water. "
Who do you think you are to question someones patriotism Bill?
Welcome Back Jim,
I do agree on Hart I don't think he was ever mistaken for a Speed back. He is an elusive power back I think. Mario better have a good Pro day or he may not have much of a pay day in he pros.
Just curious Bro.
At what point did Rich Rod call anyone out? becasue I was there and I must have missed it.
You obviously assumed RR was going to do that and wrote this before the game.
Nice Job!!
Good work.
No backlash here Chris. But I am a father and I feel for Rich Rod. I am sure this is killing him.
Any West Virginia Fan out there. Come on man. lets let this go.
God Bless Rich Rod and his family and GO BLUE!!!!
If Les does not take this job now he will never be offered it again. If it is true that this is his dream job then he has to take it. I can not see anyway LSU can keep him.
Your Dream job is not normally handed to you on a platter like this. He will never have an easier transition.
I welcome it.
You pretty much wrote what all Michigan fans and alum are thinking right now. Those that backed Carr like myself are left questioning our own judgement for supporting him.
Carr is all about doing the right thing. If he cares for this program as much as he claims he does he will do the right thing and step down.
Please Lloyd do the right thing.
Thanks Jim.
I am glad I didn't buy it now. Thanks for taking one for the team.
I agree Jim. I heard the same interview and thought How is he going to stop it now.
This is needed. IF Michigan wants to be the leaders and the best they need to do this.

not bias
every single game that has come out in the last two years with only one exceptions has reduced to £15 or less in 6 weeks
and that one exception was starcraft 2 which has been around £25 and ive never seen it below that
every other game has reduced either in one day sale or reduction from various retailors to £15 or less within 6 weeks
it may only spend a few days at that price and rise but at some point between release and 6 weeks it will go below £15
even skyrim can be had today for £20 its 6 weeks aren't up untill about the 20th of dec so a few weeks and you will be able to buy it for the majic £15
and it will probably reduce because of STOR

Never lose your way, or someone else might find it
With a budget that superseeds any computer game previously developed its highly unfair to compare SWTOR to Aoc/FF/War/Rift etc, hell I would not even count it to the first version of WoW. Its better, I played them all beta and some of them retail and I can say this, I have never played such a well polished mmo before (in beta/early stage). Its simply superior.
Also to compare it to already released games seem unfair since, well they are at the beginning of their jorney while most of my examples have reached the end of theirs, with WoW being the exception.
Back to the numbers, 3-4mil the first month, itl drop to 80-90% of that within 2 months and perhaps down to 70% by the third month were it will stabilize and then grow, by the first expansion in say one and a half year the game will have 5-6mil players and I believe it will continue like that.
As for upcoming games sucking away its playerbase, gw2 and the rest wont even dent the game to claim such is just funny. Dont get me wrong Il probably gonna pick it up but cmon just like gw its a non-subscription based product that only mmo-players know anything about, it doesnt have the financial muscles to compete with the big brands.

I want to support GW2 by also not supporting any other MMOs. D3 is simply highly anticpated and will be my new Blizzard go to title until they fix WOW after MoP which is too deep in development to fix things.

The game will do extremely well the first year. You're looking at a possibility of somewhere between 500 and 1000 units per metropolitan square sold pre-launch, with a retention rate of 57.6% within the first quarter. Factoring in inflation as well as a slow pit of spring sales, the game will still bolster an impressive 65-75 % sale maintenance at least until the third quarter ends. Then there's the 2012 Christmas sales, which will help push the game along into yet another year. Those sales will also be boosted by the release of an expansion pack of some sort... something to maintain the hardcore gamers while tempting newbies with a flashy new feature... so probably playable Ewoks or something like that. 2013 is the real question. Personally, I don't think they'll stand a chance after the Harry Potter MMO gets released. But they've still got a fighting chance so I won't rule it out just yet.

I don't get why people keep saying GW2 is going to steal subs from this or that game. It's got no monthly sub so why can't you just play it in addition to a subscription game? It's like 2 for the price of 1.

Ill play Swtor for its pve story experience and on offtime ill do pvp in guild wars.
One million first year subs.
320,000 by beginning of next year.

Well this is sort of OFF topic and also untrue. GW was,is untraditional but is an mmorpg. GW2 however is fully seemless so that arguement holds no weight anymore. also its not the it's the first mmorpg to not have a monthly sub fee. To use that as a stipulation would be foolish. TOR better have some serious pve muscle there in no way it competes on a PVP scale with GW2, thats just a fact.
People forget that a majority of 30+ years of age gamers grew up in the era of Star Wars, that in itself has my family all rolling SWTOR accounts, wife and two kids age 16 and 14 who caught on to Star Wars from me.
How many other "kid" gamers are following the force of their parents exposing them to Star Wars?
That is the question.

Anyone saying 1 million subs first year 320,000 after doestn have a clue. Im sorry its just uninformed they have 1 mill box sales in us alone. Thats not counting europe box sales or digital sales. so they are gonna sell over 4 million copies by launch day.
In those 2 regions. People in other regions are pre ordering to play in there countries also. I gaurantee people in australia arent waiting for it to come there as release to buy it.
that said tor will maintain at least 80 pct of it splayer base. Because its starwars. Its bioware story and the players i talked to in beta all wanted to play all the classes. Not just one.
So yea go ahead underestimate the replayablility of tor not to mention bioware is already hard at work on new content.
If bioware puts otu content on a 2 month schedule for the first year they may lose 2-3 pt of there sub base but thats it.
Truth is this game is gonna do so much better then those sayign free 2 play and 320 subs affter a yr realize
They underestimate how many non mmo gamers re coming into the mmos for tor. Or how many star wars, and biowre fans there are out there.
Oh ill buy mass effect 3 and play it and tor. U know sometimes i need time off from my mmos never more then a day or so but during that time i play my console. I can also play my console when i let my nephews on my computer or share it with others.
Sometimes ill play my console to wait for my gf to get done her facebook crap so we can level together.
so people buy console games and play mmos and dont stop subbing for that. I dont see anyone dropping a sub to tor for any bioware single player game.
Taht said to many understimate the power of the star wars ip on this forum just cause they dont liek the game its why they are wrong also.l

As for me, I played Sith Warrior to 11, knowing fully well I was going to be Repubic side for launch, so I didn't want to spoil the story. For the first beta I was invited to, 2 months ago, I played for 10 minutes... said it was a WoW clone with slightly better graphics and a worse Ui.
Fast forward to two weeks ago. I played the game on max settings after getting a new graphics card. I actually played the story at my own pace.... LOVED IT. Brought me back to the days of Koto 1 and 2... Kotor 1 being one of my favorite games of all time.
For someone like me... a midcore (not casual not hardcore) the story content ALONE will sustain me for a VERY LONG time. On weekends I can do group oriented and pvp stuff....
Long story short.....
First month 2-2.5 million
First 6 months 50% retention at 1 million + continuing box sales ~1.5 million total.
After one year.... stabolizes at 1 million subs, depending on the rate and QUALITY of the content. If they add only raid content where someone like me won't be utilizing... then it will severly hurt the casual player base. IF they ad more and more (sidequests/story content) the game can survive.
Most people on these forums are hardcore players. You are the minority. The success of SWTOR is dependent on the casual, constantly churning player bases alla WoW.
And for those of you predicting Fremium or F2P, in a year... you're delusional. Any objective analysis will show F2P, if at all, at least 2-3 years from release. I believe, however, that it will not go F2P at all, and if it does, it will be like WoW, where the first 20 levels are free. That would be a sign of immense success NOT failure.

Even with watching all of the cutscenes you're going to need to PvP for 80-100 more hours to hit 200 hours and the xp you get from it will still get you to 50 before you're close to 200 hours. Unless you spend 15-20 hours per planet(normally takes ~6 for most planets), which means 9-14 in exploring, I just dont' see people hitting 200 hours.
Btw the end game OWPvP is a joke, FFA PvP is also a joke just like the OWPvP objectives and arena's in WoW. The end-game solo planet is just a small quest hub, you can finish it in a day(did they fix the rewards for those quests yet? Because there was zero reason to do them last time I was at 50). I'm not saying what's there doesn't qualify as an endgame but besides raiding the rest is about a day's worth a fun before it is completely ignored by 90% of players. The raiding will get boring quickly, especially since lazy Bioware has decided to reuse everything again and again.

An Israeli-Arab couple can live in a Jewish town in the Galilee after being rejected by its admissions committee, Israel's Supreme Court ruled.
The young couple had been denied admission to Rakefet four years ago after the committee said they were socially incompatible with the community.
The decision issued Tuesday comes after the Israel Land Authority earlier this month made a plot of land available in Rakefet for the couple, who are living in the Israeli-Arab town of Sakhnin, in the lower Galilee near Acre.
The Knesset passed a law earlier this year that made admissions committees in small communities legal and allowed them to reject applicants they deemed incompatible with the character of the community. Human rights groups have questioned the new law in the High Court.

Reviews for PixelJunk™ Shooter
More PixelJunk goodnessAkiMatti | Oct. 21, 2014 | See all AkiMatti's reviews »
I've played my fair share of arcade shooters in my youth. "Cave shooters", we called them. Launching PixelJunk Shooter (PJS), I didn't really know what to expect as I hadn't heard from the game before. That might be the reason it was such a pleasant surprise. PJS has the usual cave shooter tropes along with some new ideas. Of course, you fly in caves with your ship and encounter enemies, blasting them away, but there is also more to do. Your task is to rescue scientists of some sort from the caves with your claw or whatever. There are also hidden diamonds under clay formations or secret caves that give bonus points. What I really liked, though, was how liquid physics have been incorporated into the gameplay by having underground lava and water storages that give additional challenge to the exploring. Connecting water and lava will form clay, which you can shoot through. Diving into water will save your ship from heat damage and so on. These are all nice things to have in a cave shooter, but they won't be enough if the ship controls badly. Luckily, it controls very well, you hardly need to think about it. The game is playable even with a gamepad, even though the aiming is a bit "hit and miss". Overall, a wonderful game that gives its genre a good showing for the new generation of gamers.
What a great game!StefaNob99 | Oct. 11, 2014 | See all StefaNob99's reviews »
PixelJunk Shooter is a dual stick shooter that is a joy to play. The controls are simple. Left stick for movement, right stick for aim. Right trigger for shooting, holding the trigger will unleash missiles. The catch is that missiles will overheat your ship. Cave ship. Not a space ship. The left trigger sends out a grappling hook to pick up stranded miners, which is the objective of the game. When you get the stranded miners, it opens a door to the next level. Each 'stage' has a few levels in it. The real selling point of this game is the incredible interaction that you have with the environment. You can destroy soft terrain. Your bullets will take out chunks and not the entire terrain / wall. There is water that is fluid and dynamic. It will also cool down your ship when it overheats. There are enemies and lava. The lava flows just as the water, makes your ship overheat and when it meets water, they bond together to form soft terrain that you can destroy. Its such a nice dynamic. There are powerups to keep your ship cool from the lava's heat. There are objects that you can grapple and tow around, such as a water bomb, good for drowning a volcano. There is a watercan object that you fill in water or lava, and when you take it out, it showers whatever liquid you have in it. Again, there is a lot of interactivity in the game. This is a game that rewards and encourages exploration. If it looks like there is a way off screen, that's probably a secret area with the game's main collectable diamonds. Well you need diamonds to progress past a certain stage. You will have to go back and play each stage a few times in order to collect enough hidden diamonds. While it might seem like a downer to replay stages and levels, its all fun. Nothing seems like a chore. Its soothing, relaxing, nice to look at and with the incredible interactivity that you have with your environment, no playthrough is really the same. On top of it all, the game sets itself apart with its art style. Its a beautiful, simple style instead of typical dualstick shooters that overload you on bright visual effects. It is well worth the price and you can probably pick it up in an indie bundle. I've also got the sequel on PSN and personally, I think this it is better.
Great port.Agolf | July 4, 2014 | See all Agolf's reviews »
It was great on PS3, it even better on PC, great mechanics, and the world is pretty cool, the only bad point is that it don't have online co-op, but the local works just fine. We just have to wait for Shooter 2 to be on Steam.
An Excellent GameHelicuor | Dec. 14, 2013 | See all Helicuor's reviews »
In a nutshell, this game is about exploring a cave in a spaceship, rescuing miners, killing monsters, and taking gems. What makes this game special are its brilliant fluid mechanics. Lava, water, dirt, Ice, etc. You can combine water and lava to make dirt, ice freezes water, lava melts dirt, etc. The interplay of these various fluids and substances are what make this game really shine.
Extremely fun Local Co-Op gameshadowsxfall | Nov. 17, 2013 | See all shadowsxfall's reviews »
I played this game waaay back at release on PS3 with a buddy with absolutely no expectations before we started. We were both very suprised when we finally beat the game and noticed that we had spent all night playing. This is a very captivating game with great physic-based puzzles and game feel. The co-op aspect was also very well done, requiring each player to work in absolutely full cooperation to solve puzzles or rescue scientists. Pick this game up and give it a try!
A new take on the Arcade Shooter genresantiainen | Nov. 13, 2013 | See all santiainen's reviews »
PixelJunk Shooter is a game developed by PixelJunk, originally released exclusively on the PlayStation 3 and later ported to the PC, Linux and Mac, exclusively on the Steam platform. PixelJunk Shooter is PixelJunk's new take on the classic arcade shooter titles, mostly based around fluid physics and physics based puzzles. PixelJunk Shooter consists of 3 episodes with a boss at the end of each episode. All of the episodes are filled with exciting new puzzles and new fluids and gadgets to play and experiment around with. The game also includes a local two player mode in case you want to play the game with a friend. And if you're the score kind of player, there's also a Score Attack mode in the game, and online leaderboards to compete in. All in all, the game is a great addition your game collection, and I really don't see how they could of improved on it... Except they did improve on it, in PixelJunk Shooter 2, that is yet to be released on Steam.
PixelJunk to PCCappinCanuck | Nov. 13, 2013 | See all CappinCanuck's reviews »
Pixel Junk Shooter is a scrolling 2D action shooter. You control a small space ship and explore the caverns underneath an alien planet to rescue the survivors of a lost scientific expedition. The title is everything you'd expect from a Pixeljunk title and more. The 2D graphics are crisp and fun. The puzzles range in difficulty but always satisfy. It's definitely not a game that will require a huge investment and can be picked up and put down whenever you want making it a great casual title to go back to. Fun mechanics include different firing modes with several hulls for additional abilities and environmental tolerances.
Another excellent port from the PixelJunk teammagusonline | Nov. 8, 2013 | See all magusonline's reviews »
Known for their very bright and easy to pick up games that emphasize around the theme of music, sound, and interaction (with friends/enemies/environments). They were pioneers of exploring different genres on the PSN. Shooter was definitely one that comes to mind (other than Monsters). While the devs already mentioned on Steam that this is local only. They said that when they port Shooter 2, it will too feature online co-op. However, I recommend getting this game as well. Especially if you have guests that come visit, or a girlfriend who would like to play something nice and casual with. It works.
One of the best PSN titles comes on PCCavalieroscuro | Oct. 25, 2013 | See all Cavalieroscuro's reviews »
Pixel Junk Shooter was one of the best exclusive Playstation 3 title, and now comes on PC. The game is an action full of colors and nice music themes, with stunning visuals and a very good artistic direction. It's like a SNES game, if you are a retrogamer, and with this you will have hours of pure fun. Give it a try, it's worth it for sure.

{Vlog 23} Stop & Smell the Roses: Joined By Parker
Welcome to…
Gah! I feel like I haven't seen y'all in ages. It's only been 2 weeks, yes I know. But, AGES people…it feels like ages!
I didn't have much time this week to film my video because we are busy working on some videos for my husband and his new "gig" {to be announced later}. Let's just say…it's been eating up a lot of my time. In a good way of course because it's a super fabulous opportunity for him.
Do you want to punch me in the stomach now for all the vagueness? Sorry, I promise he will share it soon!
I actually filmed this week's video in my bed…at 6:30 am…with a sleepy little five year old boy and a stuffed Curious George next to me.
I also wanted to mention that I am SUPER smiley because I found out yesterday that Beth, from Home Stories A to Z, picked my fireplace makeover as a winner for One Project Closer's Before & After party!
Me, a winner? I feel so honored! Not only did I win a $50 gift card to Lowes, but OPC {One Project Closer} makes a $100 donation to Habitat for Humanity! How cool is that!
I wanted to ask you guys if you like the way that this link up is set up…broad and gives you room to talk about pretty much ANYTHING. Or would you prefer that I entice you with some questions each time? I know, for me, it's sometimes easier to vlog {0r blog} when I am answering questions. Just food for thought, but I would love to hear your input.
Here is the schedule for the link up going forward!

WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama says he wants the House
to approve a Senate-passed tax package without changes.
The president called on the House to act "as soon as
possible." Obama made his remarks shortly after the Senate voted 81-19 in favor of an agreement that Obama struck with Senate Republican
leader Mitch McConnell.
House Democrats have denounced the deal because it would extend
Bush-era tax cuts for two years to all taxpayers, including the wealthy. Many Democrats especially oppose new tax rates for the heirs of wealthy estates.
Obama's remarks were the first time the White House has specifically insisted that the House leave the Senate bill intact.

The question is how we can keep this violent streak under wraps.
At the same time, more details were emerging about the origins of the violent confrontations in Briquetterie.
mid-14c.; see violence. In Middle English the word also was applied in reference to heat, sunlight, smoke, etc., with the sense "having some quality so strongly as to produce a powerful effect." Related: Violently.
