It's gross. We used to eat that stuff 3 times a day, forever. My dad hated our cuisine because we don't have any. Standard Costa Rican cuisine is to throw an egg on top of anything.
Decided to knock off early in Cartago and went all out and spent $80 on a room at the Hotel El Guarco.
LMAO! Now you are in my old neighborhood. So Cartago has a hotel now? And of all the names to give it they call it El Guarco? This is hilarious. We lived in Cartago in El Tejar del Guarco right up from the El Quijongo restaurant. Not a nice neighborhood. Even worse now as I hear it's full of Nicas.
You got some great shots of our topography and vegetation. I love that about the place. Cartago, you are in fog city. It has a microclimate there all of it's own. If you get a chance ride up to Irazu. On a clear day you can see both the Pacific and the Atlantic. If it's cloudy and you make the ride anyways, you will freak when you get above the cloud line.

|Xavier Longsaddle
I am currently playing a Warpriest at 8th level (started at 5).
I chose to go with the Champion of Faith Archetype since I wanted smite and smite is awesome.
Since it came out I have found both offense and resources wise, the inquisitor is a better class.
A better WAR priest.
The Inquisitor spellist has early access to some awesome spells well before the warpriest.
Deadly Juggernaut for instance and gets some brilliant spells he can't cast at all like Righteous Vigor and Litany of Righteousness (which an inquisitor can't use anyway since he doesn't get an Aura)
"But he gets full cleric spells", you cry.
I know. And because of the 6th level casting gets it way later than the cleric.
This is HUGE. The cleric list is ok but getting stuff 2 levels late makes it suck.
I am not one of those who scream that they should have kept full BAB, but considering the closest Parallel classes (Magus and Inquisitor) are less intensive for resources the class lags a bit.
A warpriest has to blow a fervor AND a spell to sswift buff+Attack.
A magus can cast+attack all day long via spell strike. Spellstrike doesn't cost anything. Spell combat does a little (-2 to attack) but the cost is negligible considering and Attack+Haste is far more game breaking than Attack+Divine favor.
The right Battle control can trounce an encounter.
Vs a Inquisitor well Judgements as a swift doesn't even cost a spell at all. At low levels a spell is better (point for warpriest) but as soon as second judgement comes online, freely picking +'s to attack, damage or saves FOR ENTIRE FIGHT can tip the balance the other way.
I don't necessarily think there is anything wrong with the warpriest mechanism but are strongly feeling Paizo in their efforts to not create any more Unique spell lists could have said
Spells:The warpriest uses the Inquisitor and Paladin lists for spellcasting.
That would grant a Much more offense focused list (remember WARpriest) and a better healer as well. with adding stuff like Righteous Vigor, early Deadly Juggernaut, early lessor restoration, Litany of Righteousness etc. Freaking Holy Sword.
Try it.
It's game changing for the class and better fits the theme.
As for what it's good at I have read Undone's guide and agree with Most of it but have had lengthy back and forth that Warpriest's make pretty good Intimidators and with their bonus feats the combo of
Dazzling Display,
Cornugon Smash, Shatter Defenses
and a Sickening Weapon
To drop Shaken, Flatfooted and Sickened is a pretty potent trick to debuff enemies.
They also make Tank builds (Fullplate, Shield, Ioun Stone, Sacred Armor) whhile still doing great damage (Smite or Destruction Blessing)
Still that damn cleric list bothers me.

1827 Half Eagle, BD-1, High R.5, MS621827 $5 MS62 NGC. CAC. Breen-6486, BD-1, High R.5. Only a single die pairing is known for this rare issue, one that had a reported mintage of 24,913 pieces. The date 1827 is therefore sufficient to identify the obverse. The reverse is a carryover from 1826, which shows a "tiny, oblate period in the denomination," per Bass-Dannreuther, who nonetheless estimate that as few as 10,000 pieces and as many as the full complement of 24,913 coins could have been actually dated 1827. They posit that 35 to 45 examples survive today in all grades, putting this issue at about the median rarity level in a decade that is known for some of the rarest issues in U.S. numismatics. There are four other single-variety years known for the decade -- the 1822, 1823, and 1824 -- of which the last two are of about equal rarity to the 1827, while the 1822 is a classic numismatic rarity, with three known, of which two are in the Smithsonian. John Dannreuther writes that "Bass owned two coins of this rare date, which date/variety is about the same rarity as the 1824 and BD-1 of 1826, but it is less often seen than the 1823 or the 1820, as a date."
A Rare Single-Variety Year
A Rare Single-Variety Year
The present MS62 NGC example is one of four at this grade level, with nine finer (11/11). Deep reddish-gold coloration prevails throughout both sides of this specimen. The strike is sharp on the obverse but falls a bit on the soft side on the reverse. There are minimal marks for the grade, however. Bass-Dannreuther point out that by this time the "Mint's dies were now striking tens of thousands of coins without cracking," explaining why there is only a single die state known for the issue, Obverse a / Reverse b.(Registry values: P6) (NGC ID# 25R5, PCGS# 8136)

Victoria and Vancouver Island Travel Guide
Victoria is a bike-friendly town with more bicycle commuters than any other city in Canada. Bike racks on city buses, bike lanes on downtown streets, and tolerant drivers all help, as do the city's three long-distance cycling routes, which mix car-free paths and low-traffic scenic routes.
BC Ferries will transport bikes for a nominal fee (just C$2 from Vancouver). You can also rent bikes, bike trailers, and tandem bikes at several Victoria outlets for a few hours, a day, or a week. Helmets are required by law and are supplied with bike rentals.
Bike Routes
Cowichan Valley Trail. This 29-mile path, part of the Trans-Canada trail, runs from Shawnigan Lake to Cowichan Lake in the Cowichan Valley. A rails-to-trails conversion, the route crosses eight historic bridges, include the 614-foot-long Kinsol Trestle, which is reportedly the highest of its kind in Canada. Victoria, BC. www.cvrd.bc.ca.
Galloping Goose Regional Trail. Following an old rail bed, this 33-mile route officially starts at the Johnson Street Bridge in Victoria. The multi-use trail runs across old rail trestles and through forests west to the town of Sooke, finishing at the abandoned gold-mining town of Leechtown. Just north of downtown it links with the Lochside Regional Trail to Sidney, creating a nearly continuous 62-mile car-free route. Victoria, BC. 250/478–3344. www.crd.bc.ca/parks.
Lochside Regional Trail. This fairly level, mostly car-free route follows an old rail bed for 18 miles past farmland, wineries, and beaches from the ferry terminals at Swartz Bay and Sidney to downtown Victoria. It joins the Seaside Touring Route at Cordova Bay and meets the Galloping Goose Trail just north of downtown Victoria. Victoria, BC. 250/478–3344. www.crd.bc.ca/parks.
Rotary Route. For an ambitious tour of southern Vancouver Island's back roads and bike trails, follow this 68-mile signed route from Swartz Bay up to Nanaimo. Victoria, BC. www.rotaryroute.org.
Seaside Touring Route. Starting at the corner of Government and Belleville streets on the Inner Harbour, this 18-mile route, marked with bright yellow signs, leads past Fisherman's Wharf and along the Dallas Road waterfront to Beacon Hill Park. It then follows the seashore to Cordova Bay, where it connects with Victoria's other two long-distance routes: the Lochside and Galloping Goose regional trails. Victoria, BC.
The Gulf Islands are also popular with cyclists. The scenery is wonderful, but the steep narrow roads and lack of dedicated bike paths can be frustrating.
Bike Rentals and Tours
Cycle BC Rentals. This centrally located shop rents bikes for adults and children, as well as bike trailers, motorcycles, and scooters. 685 Humboldt St., Downtown, Victoria, BC, V8W 1A6. 250/380–2453. www.cyclebc.ca.
CycleTreks. Besides renting bikes, this company also runs bike tours of Victoria, the Gulf Islands, and various parts of Vancouver Island, as well as a vineyard tour of the Cowichan Valley. The staff can give you a ride to the start of Galloping Goose Trail or to Butchart Gardens so that you can pedal back. 1000 Wharf St., Downtown, Victoria, BC, V8W 1T2. 250/386–2277 or 877/733–6722. www.cycletreks.com.

Sharp Near-Gem Proof 1857 Seated Dollar1857 $1 PR64 PCGS. Breen-5455. This year marked the passing of the large cent, and the Mint struck numerous proof 1857 cents as well as other coins. Pioneer early dealer Edward Cogan marked this as the beginning of a widespread interest in coin collecting in America, and the first professional coin dealers. The 1857 business strike silver dollars were minted primarily for export to China, and few, if any, circulated domestically. Most of the business strikes had prooflike surfaces, to one degree or another. Many of the business strikes, and some proofs struck from the same die, show flatness on Liberty's head. This coin is clearly struck from a different die, as the head is gloriously well struck up. The Bowers-Borckardt volume describes a tiny die flaw as a "beard" below the chin. This example has well mirrored fields with smoke-gray rims, accented by a tinge of blue, and brilliant silver centers on the obverse. The reverse center is copper-hued. Population: 9 in 64, 2 finer (7/06).(Registry values: N7079) (NGC ID# 252B, PCGS# 7000)

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals
Rating: 5.0
By Anne Cassidy, campaignlive.co.uk, Tuesday, 16 March 2010 10:25AM
Maxus won the account, which includes digital and search as well as traditional media, after a pitch against 10-year incumbent OMD was run from Singapore.
The account includes the business in Asia, the US and the UK, where the media spend is estimated at £1.2 million.
The account will be led out of Hong Kong and Singapore, with teams in Shanghai, London and New York also working on the business.
Brendan Inns, Shangri-La vice president of brand communications, said: "We have enjoyed a long and fruitful partnership with OMD over the past 10 years and we are thankful to them for their significant contribution and service during that time.
"Although we have a positive relationship, we believe that with an exciting new brand campaign about to launch, it has come to a natural cycle for us to consider a change to help new ideas and thinking."
Maxus won the global media business for UPS in October last year after pitching in partnership with sister WPP agency Ogilvy Group, which was appointed to the advertising business.

'Noah' expert tells real story of biblical flood
Posted By -NO AUTHOR- On 03/28/2014 @ 1:58 pm In Faith,Front Page,U.S. | No Comments
There are stories of massive floods in many cultural traditions worldwide, which represent the "collective memory" of the biblical catastrophe, the author of a new book has told Fox News.
Larry Stone's book "Noah: The Real Story" is out with the truth just as Hollywood's $130 million epic "Noah" starring Russell Crowe is appearing in theaters.
He explained there are hundreds of stories of great floods, or worldwide floods, representing the "collective memory of one great worldwide Flood," ranging from Africa and Australia to Europe and China.
Stone talked about several specific flood stories, including one from Syria that had a man, his family and animals caught up in a flood that took them far into the Persian Gulf. A second, he said, suggests that the Black Sea was flooded 500 feet above its ordinary level.
He said explorers have found what appears to be evidence of civilization at a depth of 400 feet in the Black Sea.

Stone said one interpretation is that the world was vastly different prior to the flood, consisting of one continent, from which today's seven continents fractured because of the upheaval.
Hollywood's version is directed by Darren Aronofsky, who injects the theory of evolution into the biblical narrative.

The "Outside-In" Confidential Data Security Mode
Date Added: Aug 2009
Format: Webcast
Confidential data resides everywhere?from locked-down data centers to mobile devices?and is increasingly accessed by a wide range of constituents?from employees to contractors and business partners. How can CIOs and CISOs possibly secure confidential data when it is in a constant state of motion? The ESG "Outside-In" data security model seeks to put confidential data security in context by anchoring data security to risk metrics, categorizing risk zones, and recommending security controls. When properly and consistently applied, ESG believes that the "Outside-In" security model can help organizations improve confidential data security while making this data more productive for global network-based business processes.

Current state of KDE 4 performance
Hi all,
I've just installed Kubuntu 9.04. I have a Quadro NVS-290 and am using the 180.44 driver package that comes with Ubuntu.
I've checked that the recent performance improvements are enabled, but performance is still very bad. The worst app is konsole, where text output chews up a lot of CPU time. There are noticeable delays when paging through the output of less, or switching tabs, or any kind of text-drawing activity. Enabling AA helps a bit, but I don't want blurred terminal fonts. The rest of KDE is okay if a little sluggish; no stability issues at least.
Is this still the status quo as of KDE 4.2.2? Or should I be expecting better?
I tried the 173 driver which is also in the Ubuntu repository, but performance seems to be just as bad in both versions. Enabling or disabling "Desktop effects" (compiz?) makes no difference. On the same machine, GNOME is pretty smooth. gnome-terminal is faster than konsole but we're talking snails and slugs.
Just want to know what I should be expecting because, in 2D, my old Intel 945 is noticeably better and that's disappointing to say the least.
P.S. What is the GeForce equivalent of a Quadro NVS-290? Is it an 8 series?
Re: Current state of KDE 4 performance
A NVS-290 is a GeForce 8500 GT, so a quite weak card. However for 2D this shouldn't matter a lot (if all).
Re: Current state of KDE 4 performance
There is a computer at my school with an 8500GT running Linux, and the 2D performance on it is great. Can you give the 185.18.04 driver in my PPA repository a shot? It might make a difference, because I never tried that particular card with the 180.xx series.
Re: Current state of KDE 4 performance
Another issue I noticed is that scrolling is sometimes slow initially, then it seems to get cached and is fast. This sometimes happens when dragging large photos in gqview, for example. I've never seen this with any other video card.
Anyway, it's not worth wasting time over. I've switched to an old Radeon X300 and 2D is back to normal, and there's no messing with binary drivers. 3D sucks of course, but I don't need it. I'll probably pick up a cheap Radeon 4350 in anticipation of it being well supported in the future.
Re: Current state of KDE 4 performance
You should run 180.xx.xx drivers in order to get a decent performance with KDE4 KWin effects turned on.
As for Konsole - it's an identified and probably forgotten issue: Konsole from KDE4 is unusable with bitmap or with nonAA TrueType fonts.
Re: Current state of KDE 4 performance
I also noticed something weird with KWin. My desktop which has a 6600GT runs much much more smoother than my laptop with 8600M GT card , even at the highest powermizer level. My driver version is 185.18.04. Maybe the driver has problem with 8*00 cards?
EDIT: I also has some minor screen corruption with KDE, compositing turned on or not. But that is for another thread I guess.
Re: Current state of KDE 4 performance
Well, it's not perfect on my 8600M GT but it's usable, even with desktop effects turned on. A small lag here and there but no bigger issues.
Even though, KDE4 is much more fun on the 7600 GT I have in another PC.
Re: Current state of KDE 4 performance
As a software developer I prefer non antialiased fonts in all applications. The micorsoft fonts are designed to look good and are readable at typical sizes (8,9,10 pt). Its only the non or badky hinted fonts, that need the 'hack' of antialising to look tolerable.
This seems to be a typical problem, where one side is blaming the other, in this case Qt/KDE vs. nvidia with the result, that this problem won't get addressed any time soon. Even more so, as all the ( for me useless ) fancy 3D effects and antialiased fonts is going to be the main use case.
Re: Current state of KDE 4 performance
When using desktop effects with the recent batch of nvidia drivers (180.* or 185.*), should we be using direct or indirect rending?
Re: Current state of KDE 4 performance
It IS strange that my laptop with a 7000m chip seems to handle compositing as smooth or smoother than my more powerful desktop with an 8800GTS. :/
I think the 185 series helps some by allowing small pixmaps to be placed in vid mem (on 8000 series card, as earlier cards already had this). It did seem to make a difference in firefox and konqueror.
Performance has come a long way though, and I'm grateful, but I think there is more to be done.
Another thing that can speed up compositing somewhat is disabling processor scaling. I've read some interesting articles stating that, while it lowers temperatures, it doesn't lower power usage, and in fact, can increase power usage because it takes longer to run a given instruction at the slower speed, which in turn can delay the computer from entering deeper sleep states. Just thought it was interesting.
In any event, when I run my processor full bore, kde 4 seems more responsive.

Marco Soccer Club offers new program Optimist Eagles U10 football team wins
Marco Soccer Club offers new program
Optimist Eagles U10 football team wins
The Marco Island Eagles U10 team won its Southwest Florida Youth Football League game, while the U12 team went down in defeat.
Both teams played the Golden Gate Tigers at Winterberry Park.
Playing before their home crowd, the Under 10 team blanked Golden Gate, 24-0.
Here are remarks by Eddie Webb, Optimist Club football director.
The U-10 team controlled the Tigers on defense and scored touchdowns when they had the ball on offense. Touchdowns by several Eagles players put points on the score board early in the game and once the youngest Eagle team started to fly they never looked back. Players that were key to the high flying victory this week was every member of the U-10 team.
The U-12 Eagles, looking for its first win, were looking to protect "the nest" while playing the first home game.
The Tigers were the first to score as the Eagles team was unable to contain the outside run after a short screen pass. As the game continued on the Eagles were able to move the ball and after a 50-yard run by Castor Vosburgh the Eagles got on the scoreboard. While the Eagles could not stop the Tigers onslaught of outside runs they were able to continue to put points on the score board,
Running back Jordan Love and quarterback Richard Reisinger scored touchdowns, but "the nest" was lost to the Tigers. The final score was Golden Gate 37, Marco Island 19.
The Eagles are at home again on Saturday, again hosting Golden Gate. The U10 game begins at 9 a.m., followed by the U12 contest at 11 a.m.
South Naples U10 plays Lee-County at 9 a.m. and South Naples U12 also plays Lee County at 11 a.m. Both games are at Eagles Lake Park off U.S. 41.
New soccer educational program
The Marco Island Soccer Club (MISC) is offering a new soccer educational program for pre-school to middle-school-aged kids this fall.
The MISC program starts Sept. 17 and runs through November, when the Optimist Club recreational program begins. MISC then picks up again with 3v3 travel soccer in the spring.
Chadd Chustz, who is president of the Marco Soccer Club and director of Optimist soccer program said, "Nearly 300 kids participated in last year's Optimist soccer season. Soccer is undoubtedly the most popular sport when you look at the numbers."
Coach Patrick Baldwin, vice president of MISC, will head the educational program. "We will offer an educational soccer program, run by experienced coaches and trainers for kids, so that they become better players and enjoy the sport more."
The MISC fall soccer program will cost $60, and the Optimist soccer program will cost $40. That's six months of soccer for $100.

Black limited edition with six speed manual transmission
This car is awsome. It is the most fun that you can have with your clothes on. I have a black limited edition with a six speed manual transmission and this vehicle has changed my daily commute from a hum hum routine to an exciting event that I look forward to. Consumer Reports rates Subaru as the world's best automobile manufacturer for producing mechanically sound and reliable cars so I know that I can depend on this fun to drive machine for years to come. Although I paid $2500.00 over MSRP and had to fly out of state to get one, it was worth the extra trouble and expense.The voice activated audio and navigation systems are a dream. I love this car and I am delighted every time that I get in it.

I need someone to catch my drift....
I'm not sure what to say here. How do you put your life into words? SInce this section apparently requires 200 characters or more, I'm going to step outside of my comfort zone by saying that I'm a fairly easygoing person (of course, everyone thinks that about themselves; truth be damned lol) What I am looking for is someone who knows themselves, is fairly sane, and has a sense of humor. I also love to travel and would ideally like to meet someone who also enjoys that. I also love to cook, so I'm looking for someone who likes to try different things. I'm basically looking for someone that I can relax and be myself with. Don 't really do the club scene, but do enjoy live music and lounges.
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Basketball, Billiards / Pool, Dancing, Running, Skiing, Swimming, VolleyBall, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
Don't display my sign
I have Dogs
My friend got a dog and could not keep her anymore, so I agreed to take her. She has since stolen my heart lol
I like interesting cities like Chicago, Vegas, Vail and San Francisco. Just spent 2 weeks in Amsterdam and Brussels. It was fantastic and I can't wait to go back next year.
I'm a Star Trek fan so I like watching reruns of that. I'm a foodie so I like watching Top Chef and Chopped. I like anything from hip hop to Jazz to Classical.
I do some volunteer work during the day. Usually on Saturday. Then dinner or a movie with friends depending on the weekend. If there's an interesting lounge around, I may check that out. Sunday's are beach days or cooking with the family!!
I like Gigi Grazer. She's very funny!

WWE Shawn Michaels Projector Pen
The perfect writing implement for any disgruntled office workers, this pen, apart from displaying that fetching photo of the Heartbreak Kid, can project an image of the WWE wrestler on any flat surface.
So, if someone asks you to do the filing and you don't feel like it, shine Shawn on the filing cabinet. That'll show 'em.
Someone else is moaning it's your tea round - shine Shawn on the kitchen work surface. Now who's turn is it?
Your boss complains you're not doing the duties as laid out in your job description - shine Shawn on the ceiling.
And if that doesn't work, then maybe it's time to show your boss just how to dance to some of Shawn's Sweet Chin Music.

According to Marc Spears of Yahoo! Sports, the Lakers are interested in free agent Mickael Pietrus. Pietrus is a nine-year veteran guardforward who has logged seasons with the Golden State Warriors, Orlando Magic, Phoenix Suns and Boston Celtics. In his time with the Suns, he played for Alvin Gentry, who ran a similar offense to what Mike D'Antoni utilized in his Phoenix tenure with Steve Nash. Pietrus also played in the NBA Finals against the Lakers as a teammate of Dwight Howard. Spears simply noted that Pietrus is should be added to the list of free agents the team has "inquired about recently." Yahoo colleague Adrian Wojnarowski also reported the Lakers have some interest in Utah Jazz guard Raja Bell. The Lakers haven't gotten consistent production from guard Jodie Meeks and swingman Devin Ebanks behind Kobe Bryant. Pietrus has had feelers from various teams but has resisted offers at the league minimum. The NBA allows teams to carry up to 15 players. The Lakers currently ha...

Torrance businessman Sam Fuji wants to bring Japanese culture to America, and he thinks Frank Sinatra--or at least the crooner's songs that are karaoke favorites--can help.
The electronics executive is one of the founders of Nikkei International Assn., a nonprofit group that plans to use the culture and traditions of Japan, such as karaoke, to promote cultural understanding. The group will hold its organizational meeting Sept. 25 at Sambi of Tokyo restaurant in Downey.
In karaoke contests, at least one verse of a contestant's song must be in Japanese.
"With 'My Way,' they sing the first part in Japanese and the second in English or Spanish," Fuji said. "A lot of American people start learning Japanese that way. . . . That's what we are aiming for."
The group plans a national karaoke contest but also will provide a business network, educate people about Japanese culture and raise money for charity.

Special Fund Keeps Adenhart's Memory Alive
Jim Ecker
Monday, June 21, 2010
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa – Nick Adenhart died tragically last year, killed by a drunk driver shortly after he'd pitched six scoreless innings for the Los Angeles Angels, but his memory is being celebrated through the Nick Adenhart Memorial Fund.
Nick's family has distributed approximately $50,000 from the fund to various youth baseball programs, many of them in Maryland where Nick grew up, and on Sunday the family donated $5,000 to the Kernels Foundation in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where Nick spent part of the 2006 season with the Kernels in the Class A Midwest League.
"Nick loved it here. It's where his career started," his mother, Janet Gigeous, told the crowd during an emotional pre-game ceremony at Perfect Game Field. "We'll always have a special place in our hearts for you."
The Kernels retired Nick's uniform number during the ceremony, the first number retired in club history. The team unveiled a handsome 8-foot picture of Nick on the center-field wall, along with his name, his number 21 and an inscription that reads "1986-2009." The picture shows Nick in his windup, prepared to throw a pitch for Cedar Rapids.
Nick won 10 games for Cedar Rapids in 2006 and compiled a 1.95 before being promoted to Rancho Cucamonga that season. He was a Midwest League All-Star and was headed straight for the major leagues, where he made it just two years later.
Nick was only 22 years old when he died shortly after midnight on April 9, 2009, a talented young pitcher and an outstanding young man. He always said that Cedar Rapids was his favorite spot in the minor leagues, thanks to the friendly fans and his fond memories.
"I think it was where the dream kind of started," his mother said after the ceremony. "When he was 8 or 9 years old, he was talking about how he was going to play professional baseball. The dream started really young for him. And he gets here and there's people in the stands … It just kind of all came together for him. I think it was a happy time for him. This place has a lot of really good memories."
The Angels picked Nick in the 14
round of the 2004 draft. He pitched in three games for Los Angeles in 2008 and made the starting rotation at the start of the 2009 campaign when the tragic accident occurred. His death shook the organization, and the Angels celebrated his memory by hanging his uniform in their dugout during the entire 2009 season as they proceeded to make the American League playoffs.
Instead of contributing flowers to the funeral, the family welcomed donations to the Memorial Fund so they could help other young boys and young men pursue their dreams as well. The Kernels Foundation plans to use its $5,000 donation to help young athletes and baseball programs in the Cedar Rapids community.

What is "real"? How do you define "real"?
I don't understand the hate about games that either start as F2P or end up going that route. Yes, I get that some F2P games are crap, but from what I understand, there are plenty of P2P games that are crap as well. With F2P, when you find out it's crap, it doesn't hurt so bad.
I say, just take each game on its own merits. If you feel it has a Pay2Win CS (whether P2P or F2P), then don't play. If it's an F2P and you find it fun and even want to spend some cash in the CS then, have at it.
My personal opinion is that B2P is the best way to go - it's good for the devs and good for the players. In most cases, you get a quality game that is fun to play and the devs make some money to pay for the costs of the game + develop a new one. Just like console games, or most other PC based games.
2nd to that for me is the hybrid model like the one in LotRO. There you have P2P and F2P players playing the same game and the F2P people, with some frugality can even get many of the "bonus" areas/quests without paying a dime. And the P2P people get a bunch of perks. Works for me.
One disclaimer: I tend to be more PvE oriented so some things that seem to others as Pay2Win in a CS don't seem that way to me. So, that could be a difference for some. But, like I said, check out each game and judge it on its merits. If it doesn't suit your needs in a game, move on to something that does.

Nothing wrong with F2P games, but there are huge differences in this segment. Many have little or no support mechanisms, those I tend to avoid. It is nice to be able to try out a game without forking over a box price. I have been burned by some games where I bought the box and found out I did not like the game. Aion is a good example there.
As to Pay-to-Win, I only associate that feature with PVP, who cares if someone can do better PVE than you, hence there are a lot of F2P games out there that are not Pay-to-Win in my mind.
Personally I have found the games that offer a hybrid model, like Lotro or DDO to fit my playstyle far better than other things out there.
Some of the F2P like Perfect World and Runes of Magic were initially really fun, but once you got to the upper levels of those games it became almost mandatory to start spending in the cash shop. Don't mind spending a little in the cash shop, but games like those mentioned above quickly get expensive.

I saw rant after rant that Aion is P2W. If I look over what they have to offer, there is not a single P2W item there from what I can tell. Can one of you ranters point out which actual items are P2W?

Free to play is nice because it is easier to convince friends to play it with me. Free to play can be dangerous though, I easily spent over a hundred on Atlantica Online in a few months (a great game though). There are a lot of REALLY bad F2P games which is where the stigma comes from, generally Korean grinder clones.

Hi folks.
Just checked comments now, so I apologize for the delay. Am currently visiting family in a different country, so I'm using a different connection and a netbook.
The picture with the ships is from a browser based MMO called Kultan, and may not be completely representative of the game, in my limited experience (My travel laptop is dreadfully slow and crashes when I try to run some games, such as Kultan. Not the game's fault, but the netbook's age showing).
Regarding the pay-to-win arguments mentioned here, I reference it when I talk about most games having some cash shop items that don't significantly impact and create a long-term advantage. While one with a lot of money could theoretically buy XP multipliers and strength buffs from start to finish, it's not exactly economically viable. As for games that tend to force players to buy items to get ahead at higher levels, I apologize for not bringing it up, as I personally am the type that chooses not to spend money and simply picks a different game when I get pushed to spend to alleviate grind... in other words, it didn't cross my mind.
Lastly, Sinjin is correct in saying that F2P games are not free if you consider plugs or cash shop mentions. You do, however, get to mitigate monetary usage depending on your how long and how often you play an individual MMO. :)

We see free games made inconvenient by design to sell items that are "only for convenience". Really I have yet to come across a free game that approaches the quality of subscription games. I play LotRO and Conan on occasion but in both combat is clunky and travel is a pain in the arse. If I am going to pick up a game and play for a bit, I don't want to spend 10 minutes just getting somewhere to do something. And I think those 2 are in the upper eschelon of quality when it comes to free games. While the price of a game may be free, my time is not. That is why there is a barrier for me to try a new free game, I don't want to waste my time downloading and playing something only to find out the game actually doesn't get any better as you progress. There are more than enough new games that come out that are actually fun, and I don't mind paying for them.

There are certain stigma's that have gotten associated with Free-To-Play games that I think need to be dismissed, but there are also a few other valid points that need to be brought up.
First, it is very possible to make a nice polished game and have it be F2P. The reason people get turned off is unfortunately we have had a TON of just absolute garbage F2P games released that are ruining the name F2P.
Second, cash shops if done right are a great addition to some games, and provide that income for the developers to continue improving and supporting their games. As long as the items don't provide in game advantages then it's a non-issue since it doesn't affect other players.
With those two out of the way though, I have to say that I strongly feel like the F2P model is destroying the online community. If you spend money on the box and invest in 3, 6, 12 months, or even longer you are commiting yourself to a game, and also to your character and account. Any game that has a trial 1-20 or F2P just read the general chat, it's ridiculous. One of the posters in this thread even brought up what I mean. If you are playing 9 F2P games at a time you aren't committed to any of them, what do you care if you are a ninja looter, or a royal ass to everyone? Ruined your reputation? No problem, just create another account, it's free. Pretty sure you aren't going to continue playing the game? Let everyone in general chat know how much their life sucks because they are playing that game. What does it matter, you have 8 other games to fall back on. Want to try botting or hacking but don't want to lose your account? No problem, if you get banned you can just make another and it's free! It's not like you invested 3 years into it and don't want to lose it. You can say whatever you want and do whatever you want because there is zero comittment to that character or even game.
It's already bad enough with B2P games, but to use the Penny Acade theory it takes the whole "Normal person + annonymity + audience = Total !@#$wad" to a whole new level. F2P games have their own niche right now, and I like that, but it will be a sad, cold day when they replace B2P entirely.

Good article Victor. I can relate to a lot of what you wrote although my favorite games have been p2p subscription games.
It's interesting to see different things various games have to offer. For example, when I played Wizard101 I thought it was really cool how dynamic grouping works for encounters. Mostly I don't like how the game play can feel so centered around the cash shop. Oddly enough games designed from the ground up with cash shops in mind often seem better than their Freemium conversion cousins.

Ad-block/Anti-banner no ads on Hotmail. Also the few times I had a question about my email service it was answered pretty quick even if it wasn't live(instantly answered I'm guessing you mean).
I've only played EQ, EVE Online, and WoW so i need and will try some F2P ones. But I am on the side that some F2P are just for making money a lot of the ones I've seen in the past advertised the parts you'd have to pay for just as much or more as the free side.
My view on this is kind of like my view on tipping. I don't believe in it. It's much easier I think to have a sub fee/include waiter's wage into meal than to have a F2P unless you're trying to make money as fast as possible. Most times it seems like the only people hurt are the consumer/customer and the game/waiter. And if people think the sub is too high they just stop paying.
But it's no surprise if you think about it. F2P is the normal step with more competition among good games and the lazy people thinking it's a market where they can make a quick buck with a bad game. Atm I think eventually P2P will make a comeback at least a small one with quality games. Then F2P will mostly be gone or be a sub market or be a combination with P2P.

The hate for F2P come from players who want something for nothing. They come to F2P expecting to play for 10 year or more and not spend a cent. They are infuriated that those that do spend money get something that they do not, or is difficult for them to get. They expect the devs not to be paid, and still support the game with fixes and content updates. If the game must be paid for, it shall not affect them or their game play directly or indirectly. They shall not compete against Pay Shop Items, Content shall not be limited by pay shop, nothing they want or can be used against them shall be Pay Shop.
I don't mean to offend anyone, but by only tolerating Vanity Items to be sold, they are saying "Let those ---- & ---- pay for our hardcore PvP / PvE game play, we will not pay." By this I ONLY mean that opponents to F2P want some outside group that they don't respect to pay for their game play.

That's a pretty reaching opinion if you're saying that being against F2P games selling items that make leveling faster or gear is the same as not thinking that the devs shouldn't be paid in anyway.

To be honest I got a big deal of trouble with F2P as they are.
Heres an example - I used to be big fan of LOTRO until it finally got old and i moved on. Some time later few expansions were released and i decided it`s a good time for my old captain to ride for all the free peoples once again, but i soon discovered game shifted to F2P model. Well, ok I thought, and quickly purchased my regular subscription, now called premium, like a good old customer of turbine`s and loged in. To my great disdain i could not play it, as i soon found out. Even as a "subscriber" my every moment in middle earth was filled with annoying ADs: "Buy stat potions, launcher window said. Buy some rate scrolls, tool-tip poped out." And I must say i was annoyed greatly, every damn loading screen with another commercial push I came across (and that was EVERY loading screen) botched my LOTRO experience even more. It was so frustrateing in the end, my favorite MMO turned into common "TV shop show", i never even looked back her way.
My bottom line - f2p model does VERY bad things to developers and publishers both. They will exist, of course, as they turn nice profits on that "pay anything to win" minority, and because of this minority service quality priorities shift greatly, and that is a worst part of it.

Once I did an amazing thing, that all the amazing things were amazed by the amazing thing i did!
You Guys crying over F2P being bad is sickning, i will just give one example of one game that while not being mmorpg entirely for me has the best F2P system i know. League of Legends is free you just spend money if you want to buy or champions or skins and practically nothing more and its a very successfull game. of course there are some F2P who have ads, or piss you off constantly for you to spend money on their cash shop and of course there are some who actually have items who grant advantages that disrupt the fairness of the game, but like people you have bad people and good people, you have good food bad food, you have bad weather good weather and so on, just because you didnt like one F2P game doesnt mean the entire universe of F2P games are the same open you narrow minds a little.

Chino Valley history party draws crowds
DEL RIO SPRINGS, Ariz. � On a warm January day 150 years after the first governor's party arrived at Del Rio Springs to run the new Territory of Arizona, history came to life there again.
Families who had lived on the Del Rio Ranch throughout the years joined history buffs to celebrate the governor's arrival at the same spot on Jan. 22, 1864. The event organized by the Chino Valley Historical Society quickly reached its capacity of 150 people and some had to be turned away for lack of parking.
Attendees included government dignitaries and descendants of the Shivers family that owned part of the ranch in the 1800s.
"Of all the springs, creeks and rivers in Arizona, the governor's party chose Del Rio Springs," Chino Valley Mayor Chris Marley said. "I think that's pretty neat."
The current ranch owners were unable to attend, but they did pay for the Circle J Chuckwagon Outfitters from Chino Valley to provide a free chuckwagon lunch for everyone.
The Prescott Regulators re-enacted Gov. John Goodwin's arrival with an 18-gun salute, while John Krizek and Jay Eby of the Westerners International described Del Rio's storied history.
"We need to save it for our children so they remember," Yavapai County Supervisor Craig Brown said.
Despite just leaving the hospital a few days earlier, 87-year-old Mary Converse Hardin was not about to miss the party. "This is kind of healing for me," she beamed as she chatted with her childhood friend and neighbor Betty Wells. Hardin was born at Del Rio in 1927 and lived there until 1945. That's the last time she saw Wells, and she's returned to visit the ranch only once before. She now lives in Cottonwood, while Wells has continued to ranch on her parents' place all her life.
"We'd ride down on the river and have and have a weenie roast," Hardin recalled.
But most of the time, the kids were busy with chores, Wells said.
There was no better place to grow up, Hardin said.
Robbi Yarbro Larson of Paulden couldn't agree more. She grew up on the Del Rio from 1961 to 1976.
"Mainly, we just rode and worked cattle," she said. "I've ridden all over these hills."
During play time they were luckiest kids in the arid region with their own swimming ponds filled by the
plentiful Del Rio Springs. They could even ride a rowboat along a canal from one pond to the other.
Larson remembers when the oldest building on the ranch burned down in 1969, just about the same time a new ranch hand and his family moved in. There was some kind of kitchen fire that ignited the wood ceiling, she recalled. The adobe had dated back to at least 1864.
"It was a sad deal," she said. "It would really be something to have it standing now."
The remains of the adobe walls stood for several years until subsequent owners apparently leveled the area. Several others still stand from the ranch's Fred Harvey era.
The main entrance to the ranch once was lined with black walnut trees, Larson recalled. But like many other trees on the ranch, most of the walnuts are gone as the groundwater level has dramatically dropped.
Chris Wuehrmann of Prescott, a Del Rio tenant in 1976-79 who went on to run the popular Elderhostel program at Yavapai College, noticed how many trees had died since he lived there.
Every fall in the '70s when the farmers in the area stopped pumping groundwater for their crops, the Del Rio field filled up with water, he said.
"The field would be all covered with Canada geese" that stayed for the winter, he said.
James Bond, now 93 and living in Phoenix, owned the ranch from 1978 to 2004.
"I wanted it ever since I was 16 years old, but I didn't think I'd own it," Bond said of the ranch while enjoying his chuckwagon meal. He remembers driving by it on childhood trips from Flagstaff to Phoenix.
"I thought it was the most beautiful place," he said. "It was always so pretty and green."
The ranch had lakes and five artesian wells when James Bond purchased it, his son Richard recalled, but they all were gone by the time he sold the place.
The Arizona Department of Water Resources estimates the Del Rio Springs will be dry by 2025 because of groundwater pumping.

39 year old man | Stone Mountain, GA, USA | Seeking women 25-35 within 50 miles
Looking for a great friend.
I work for myself I often work too much and need someone to help me balance it out. I think I am very funny, love music and traveling. I watch the news everyday and try to keep up with current events. Im old school and have old school values and think men and women need to have different roles to be successful. If you are a she-man, and want take on some of the traditional male roles while still enjoying the traditional woman role benefits its not going to work. I like real feminine women. I got the man role down.. lol I'm in the process of learning how to play to Piano and Guitar at the same time. I'm not sure if it's going to work out. I went to a magnet fine arts high school in which I played trumpet, I wish I would have played Piano or Guitar. Yes that picture is of my recording studio... I really do love music. I collect records. I listen to Simple Man by Lynard Skynard like 3 times a week along with Tina Turner and lately I've been on this new Jay Z. I don't listen to the radio much this days, just music that was made up of live bands.

Rocker Lenny Kravitz, 'N Sync band member JC Chasez, NY Mets catcher Mike Piazza and the musical group Train -- not to mention some 80,000 fans -- helped downtown Miami shift into first gear this weekend at the inaugural Grand Prix Americas, PEOPLE reports.
Grand marshal Sofia Vergara, 30, the Latin bombshell who made her American acting debut in this year's "Big Trouble," easily got into the spirit. "I grew up going to the car races," she told PEOPLE. "My family and I went to races in Monaco and all over. So for me this is second nature." She also considered the race "very cool to be happening in Miami."
Miami resident Kravitz, 38, concurred, saying, "This is just great for the city. There is a great vibe happening here and a lot of excitement."
Kravitz, himself a racing fan, was there to cheer on longtime pal and participant Max Papis.
"Max is racing, and I'm here to support him," said Kravitz, though his presence didn't serve as the lucky charm Papis might have desired.
Cristiano de Matta ended up placing first in the main race and winning the championship title.
