Stocks surge as tensions ease in UkraineBy JOSHUA FREED
the associated press | March 05,2014ap photo
Trader Ryan Falvey, left, and specialist Jason Notter, work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange on Tuesday. Relieved investors sent stocks sharply higher Tuesday after Russia pulled troops back from the border of Ukraine. The rally erased steep losses from Monday caused by fears of an escalating conflict.Relieved investors sent stocks sharply higher on Tuesday after Russia pulled troops back from the border of Ukraine.
The rally pushed the Standard & Poors 500 index to an all-time high, erasing steep losses from Monday, when investors feared that the confrontation between Russia and Ukraine would escalate or even lead to a war.
Traders were relieved when Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered troops participating in military exercises near Ukraine to return to their bases.
The S&P 500 rose 28.18 points, or 1.53 percent, to close at 1,873.91. It was the biggest gain for the benchmark index since October. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 227.85 points, or 1.41 percent, to 16,395.88. The Nasdaq composite rose 74.67 points, or 1.75 percent, to 4,351.97.
As investors moved back to riskier assets, prices fell for safe-play investments like bonds and gold. Oil prices also fell as the immediate threat of economic sanctions on Russia, a major oil exporter, eased. Traders had also been worried about transportation disruptions in the Black Sea, a major transit point for oil. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 2.68 percent from 2.60 percent late Monday.
In another sign of a greater appetite for risk, the Russell 2000 index of small-company stocks set another all-time high after posting the biggest percentage gains of the major U.S. stock indexes. The Russell jumped 32.29 points, or 2.7 percent, to 1,208.65. It is now up almost 3.9 percent this year.
The two-day rout and rally was just the latest twist in a volatile year for stocks, which fell almost 6 percent just last month and have since recovered to set all-time highs in recent days.
So what is an investor supposed to do in the face of this volatility?
I think maybe you take a powder. Maybe take some positions off the table, and you hedge yourself a little but, for the chance that if it does go the other way and there is a downturn, said Stephen J. Carl, head equity trader at The Williams Capital Group.
The conflict between Russia and Ukraine threatened to destabilize Europe and upset oil markets. And it wasnt clear which countries might be drawn into the conflict if it got worse. Wall Street hates uncertainty, and on Monday thats all there was. So investors were relieved when Putin appeared to back down on Tuesday.
I think the reaction today is probably more hopeful than rational, said Brad McMillan, Chief Investment Officer for Commonwealth Financial. McMillan noted that Putin made his point with Ukraine just a week after the Sochi Olympics ended. Hosting the Olympics was a way for Putin to show that Russia was open for business, but the conflict with Ukraine threw that away, McMillan said.
Stock markets in Europe, including Moscow, and Asia recouped much of Mondays losses. Indexes in France and Germany each rose 2.5 percent, and the FTSE 100 in Britain rose 1.7 percent.
The gains were extraordinarily broad. Five stocks rose for every one that fell on the New York Stock Exchange. All 10 industry sectors in the S&P 500 average rose.
Among stocks making big moves:
RadioShack plunged 47 cents, or 17 percent, to close at $2.25 after reporting a wider quarterly loss and saying it will close as many as 1,100 stores.
Qualcomm rose $2.48, or 3 percent, to $76.11 after the chipmaker announced a 20 percent increase in its quarterly dividend and adding $5 billion to its stock buyback program. Buybacks generally benefit shareholders because they increase the value of remaining shares.
J.C. Penney Co. rose 33 cents, or 4 percent, to $8.29 after Standard & Poors raised its outlook on the retailers debt, saying Penneys performance has begun to stabilize. Last week Penney posted its first gain in two years at stores open at least a year.
Delta Air Lines rose $1.86, or almost 6 percent, to $34.45 after reporting strong February domestic demand and passenger revenue.MORE IN National / World BusinessBEIJING Shares in big state companies soared Monday after promises of government action to...

This is a great rifle. Mine has a 1/8 barrel twist so i can handle up to 70 grain. But with regular 55g can put up 1" groups at 100 yds with 100% hits with an inexpensive Nikon scope.
Easy take down and cleaning.

Tennessee fugitive nabbed in Martin County
HOBE SOUND — Deputies Friday afternoon arrested a fugitive from Tennessee about a mile north of the Indiantown Road, according to a Martin County Sheriff's Office news release.
Deputies found Joseph Daniel Vicars, 26, of Campbell County, Ky., who is wanted for strong arm robbery in Sumner County, Tenn., on Southwest Pratt-Whitney Road, south of the county line.
He is being held at the Martin County Jail, awaiting extradition to Tennessee.
About 8 a.m. deputies responded to a call of a suspicious man walking south on Southwest Pratt-Whitney Road, away from a silver Toyota Corolla with Kentucky license plates that was parked on the left side of the road.
It is unknown why Vicars was in the area or why he abandoned the car, which belongs to a family member in Kentucky, because it does not appear to be disabled, the release states.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, Florida Department of Corrections K-9 unit, Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission and FBI assisted in the search.

Customer Reviews of Rampage: Total Destruction
great old skool game remade11/16/2012
This game takes u way back. They upgraded everything andthe new characters are great Have a blasty blast
i was thinking to give four stars but...5/13/2012
Four stars could be the rate for this game, but i've played the original one in the arcades and i had it also the game that i used to play in my granpa's computer with my friend Dario, he always keep coming to play that game, that at that time rocked. Now the new and improved game is fantastic and the graphics, sound and gameplay is a blast, but is just the same kind of game from the late 80's, don't get me wrong the game is great, but the most incredible thing is that you can play the original one, the arcade version that looks incredibly great, but what made me put the fifth star (if it were possible i would have put the sixth one) was the possibility to play a new rampage that came after the original, that have incredible graphics, amazing for a "classic", and that you can look at it and think that this is a PS2 game on its own. If you like destruction and rampage, don't miss this game 'cause you'll love it but if you're a fan of the sims and you hate rampage and destruction maybe you'll like it after playing this title. The cutscenes, are made by the same people that made the incredibles, so it's like having the cutscenes from the world of the incredibles.
Lots of family fun.4/3/2012
My 2 kids and wife love this game, We have family brawls destroying the city. My kids love all the monsters to choose from.
New Rampage3/22/2012
First, if you are not a fan of the original you probably won't like this. I loved the original and now can play it with my son on the wii.The graphics are superior to the original but are only as good as the wii can render so in other words they are not mind bending they are adequate. Still there is a lot of comedic events and plenty of smashing and general violence. I just started palying it so I don't really know if the difficulty level ramps up at some point. So far it's been fun!
Purchased as a gift for a 9 year old and he loves it.
Classic Game for Your Nostalgia3/21/2012
If you want to re-live your childhood memories, there is no better game than "Rampage." The graphics are actually darker and less cartoony than the earlier arcade version, but the Wii motion controller adds a new dimension to the game. Bought it for my niece and nephews and they loved it. You will too.
Great Game3/21/2012
Game is as expected - Delivery was quick
Difficult to control3/14/2012
The game is cheap and very difficult to control. $16 is probably too much for this game. I got it so I could play it with my 5 yr old son.
True to the classic but nicely updated1/12/2010
This game remains true to the classic Rampage that I used to play in the arcade as a kid. The gameplay has been updated and the graphics are nice for a cheap game. My kids love playing this game and you really can't go wrong with the price.

Chris Paul is the "Point Gawd," goes off for 23 and 17 on Rockets (VIDEO)
Nov 5, 2013, 10:42 AM EDT
If you want to know why most people around the league rank Chris Paul third on the list of best NBA players, watch this video.
He went up against Jeremy Lin and a very porous Rockets defense on the night and just dominated the game with 23 points and 17 assists. He was setting up J.J. Redick, throwing lobs to Blake Griffin and pretty much getting whatever shot whenever he wanted. He crossed up Lin one play and was knocking down a three the next.
The Clippers have far and away the best offense in the NBA after this game (116 points per 100 possessions) and Paul is the Maestro conducting the symphony. Now, about that defense….
- nghtrder169 - Nov 5, 2013 at 10:51 AM
This video could be used as his career highlight tape lol
- johngalt1783 - Nov 5, 2013 at 11:23 AM
CP3 is playing as good as I have ever seen him play. He may be ranked the 3rd best player in the NBA but right now he is playing as good as anyone including Lebron.
Doc the rest of the Clippers and their fans better pray CP3 stays healthy because waithout them they are a borderline playoff team in the WC.
- johngalt1783 - Nov 5, 2013 at 11:25 AM
Should have said "without him"
- antistratfordian - Nov 5, 2013 at 1:54 PM
CP3 gets my vote as the 2nd best player in the league. He's just so complete. Durant is much too one dimensional for my tastes.
- jerdogthompson - Nov 5, 2013 at 4:09 PM
I was at the game 8 rows behind the Houston bench and despite the final score Doc made adjustments at the half that improved the defense.
Not to mention, we had out 2nd &3rd string guys in around 8 minutes to go in the 4th. You could easily take 10-14 points from the rockets score had it been the starters.
The Clippers WILL finish the regular season top 3 in the NBA in offense & defense. Mark this post.
One of the most fun games I've ever watched period. Can't wait to open the can of whoop arse in Houston. Go Clippers!!!
- therainmaker90 - Nov 6, 2013 at 9:52 AM
When was the last time any player had the ball as much as CP3 does so far early this year. To average 26 PPG and 13 APG, that is insane. Chris Paul is the best player in the western conference right now. Sorry Durant.

Remember Me
Last year, Luther and Cody Dickinson lost their father, Memphis music legend Jim Dickinson,
only months before Luther became one. Jim had always told them, "You need to be playing music together. You are
better together than you will ever be apart." Coincidentally, the Dickinson brothers were not together when Jim
passed. At that moment, they were both off on their own, Luther with The Black Crowes and Cody with Hill Country
Revue. So in the spring of 2010, the North Mississippi Allstars went into the studio to create a record that could
help them cope with the loss, and, at the same time, rejoice in his honor. The first line of Jim's self-written eulogy
was, "I refuse to celebrate death." Luther, Cody and Chris Chew took heed and aimed to celebrate life
instead; and the songs for Keys to the Kingdom, came pouring out.
"In the end," Luther says, "We recorded our best country blues and Mississippi rock 'n roll record yet - as if our lives
depended on it." Ten years after the release of their debut album, Shake Hands with Shorty, Chew sums it up: "This
is grown folks music."

This course contains a high-level overview of Cascading Style Sheets, while exploring the basic concepts, terminology, and tools of the language. Beginning with an exploration of CSS syntax, author James Williamson explains how CSS modifies text, borders, backgrounds, and color; demonstrates CSS and HTML integration; and contextualizes the current state of CSS. The course also tours some of the most popular CSS editors and frameworks and lists online tools and resources for further study. This course is for people who want a big-picture overview before taking hands-on courses.
Borders define the outside edge of elements and are usually used to apply a decorative effect to the specific elements. Element borders are usually defined by three properties: style, width, and color. Much like margins and padding, borders can be defined for the top, right, bottom and left sides individually, or defined for the entire element at the same time. Now, border syntax can sometimes be quite verbose, as you can specify width, style, and color for each individual side.
Now because of this, authors typically use border shorthand notation that allows you to set all three border properties at the same time. The important thing to remember about borders is that they do affect the overall width of an element. Border widths begin at the edge of padding widths and then extend outward. It's easy to forget about a one-pixel border on an element, but this is often the culprit for breaking layouts or causing elements to shift unexpectedly. So when authoring CSS, be sure to account for border widths when planning layouts.
Now border width is pretty self- explanatory, but border styles and border colors deserve a closer look. Border styles can be set in one of ten values: none, hidden, dotted, dashed, solid, double, groove, ridge, inset, and outset. None and hidden are very similar, except for when tables come in the play, where there are some certain differences regarding when borders are drawn around table cells. Now solid, dotted, and dashed create a single flat line that's either solid, broken into dots, or broken into dashes.
Although support for border styles is almost complete in browsers, some older browsers don't support the dotted value, resulting in dashed lines when found. The remaining values--double, groove, ridge, inset, and outset--create dimensional line affects that often require width values greater than one. The border-color property allows you to define the color of the border independently of the color of the element's foreground and background. While most border style properties will display the color specified, a few of the 3D- like values, will actually use the color as a highlight value or not at all, depending upon browser implementation.
Most designers use borders for decorative effects, or as a way of providing visual separation between elements. Borders can also be used as a way of creating text rules between blocks of text, and as a way of replacing the default underlines under linked text. A relatively new addition to borders is the border-image property. This allows you to specify an image that will be sliced and then aligned with the elements' corners and repeated or stretched in the middle sections. The syntax is a bit too much to cover in a general overview, and browser support is just now starting to solidify, but this is definitely a technique that should be on your radar as a designer.
Before we move on, I also want to take a moment to discuss the difference between a border and an outline. The outline property has been a part of the CSS specification since CSS 2.0, but it's only very rarely discussed in tutorials. One of the biggest reasons for this is that unlike borders, outlines can only be set on the entire element, not the individual sides, like borders can. You can, however, set width, style, and color just like the border property. One other intriguing difference between borders and outlines is that outlines do not add to the total width of an element.
This rather odd behavior means that outlines will often overlap other elements when they come in contact with them; however, outlines can be set on elements without breaking layouts or causing other elements to shift, making them valuable in those situations. The biggest reason for authors ignoring the outline property, however, is its lack of broad support among browsers. Safari, Opera, and Chrome have supported it for some time, but Firefox's support is still a little bit buggy, and Internet Explorer has only recently supported it.
Still, it's worth mentioning, since it gives you an alternative to using the border property.

Good news for pot heads everywhere! The cast for the next installment of the Harold and Kumar series has been announced. Aside from returning cast members Kal Penn, John Cho and Neil Patrick Harris, some impressive names are joining the film's roster. Joining the "Harold & Kumar" ensemble are Tom Lennon ("17 Again," TV's "Reno 911") and Danny Trejo ("Grindhouse"). Rounding out the new film cast are Amir Blumenfeld (TV's "Pranked," CollegeHumor.com), David Burtka (TV's "How I Met Your Mother"), Fred Melamed ("A Serious Man"), Patton Oswalt ("The Informant!") and Richard Riehle ("Halloween II"). Part 3 takes place six years after the last film, and centers around the duo's attempts to replace Harold's father's beloved Christmas tree, which was accidentally set ablaze by Kumar. For those of you who are too stoned to keep up with such a complex plot, not to worry. The film is being shot in 3D, which means all you'll have to do is sit back and look at the cool shapes and colors racing toward your face. What an age we live in! (Coming Soon)

Birdie.Denzel Washington is in talks to star in Safe House, an original spy thriller set in South Africa, but let's not make this a racial thing. The script, written by David Guggenheim, "follows a young U.S. intelligence agent who must go on the run with a newly arrived prisoner (Denzel's potential role) after his titular safe house comes under attack — think of a mix between Collateral and Three Days of the Condor." Sounds more like a mix between Bulletproof and Spy Hard. Guggenheim sparked a bidding war with the script this past winter.A spy thriller wouldn't be my next project choice for Denzel, but I don't commission 10% of his salary to tell him what sets to show up on. The overall concept for Safe House seems stale though, and I can't understand why studios would clamor over one another to secure it. Maybe Denzel knows something I don't. Like where I put my car keys. I gotta get out of this trunk before the sun sets. The desert gets chilly at night. (Vulture)
The inevitable Twlight Saga spoof has been unleashed, and its name is Vampires Suck. All things considered, the trailer has some decent jokes and the standard girls taking off their clothes to reveal bikinis bit. No sign of Carmen Electra yet, but I'm pretty sure she's contractually obligated to appear in any and all movie parodies. Vampires Suck only skewers the first two Twlights, so you better believe there'll be a sequel. Fox would be stupid not to capitalize on Summit's success capitalizing on Stephenie Meyer's capitalizing on abstinence. Vampires Suck hits theaters August 18, 2010. Check out the trailer after the jump…
Kudos to Colin Farrell for going au naturale on the set of the new Seth Gordon-directed comedy Horrible Bosses. I always knew his hair was too thick and lustrous to be real. The combover does an awesome job of transforming him into a superior I'd like to stab in the ear with a Bic.Horrible Bosses follows three friends who all have horrible bosses they want to end, so they decide to swap their murders like in that old Hitchcock flick Strangers on a Train. Netflix it, ya uncultured swine. The three guys are played by Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis, and Charlie Day, and the bosses are Colin Farrell as coke head exec, Kevin Spacey as a master manipulator, and Jennifer Aniston as nymphomaniac dentist. Also, Jamie Foxx plays a scam artist named Motherfucker Jones, but I'm guessing you're too busy imagining getting banged by Aniston in a dentist's chair. (NYPost)
Kinda hot, right?Plot details for Men In Black 3 have entered the Internet's atmosphere and they reveal the film will be set in the 1960's. In the film, Will Smith must travel through time to stop Jemaine Clement's evil alien Yaz from killing Agent K. The thought being that without K around to defend the galaxy time and time again, the world will be completely destroyed. Which is bad. But on the other hand, we wouldn't have to suffer through Tommy Lee Jones' portrayal of Two-Face in Batman Forever. It's a toss up for me.The Apple Store appears in the film as a time travel hub with the iPhone being the primary device for personal time travel. It still won't be able to make or accept calls though. Science fiction can only take you so far. (JoBlo)
I'm not entirely certain, but I think I like this story better.
Have you always wanted to co-direct a movie with Ridley Scott but have been prevented from doing so by your crippling fear of 30 Odd Foot of Grunts guitarist Russell Crowe? Good news. Scott and State of Play director Kevin MacDonald are partnering with YouTube and Sundance to give everyday sacks like you the chance at finding your inner filmmaker.The documentary will be called Life In a Day, and feature video entries from DIY filmmakers around the world. The only real guideline is that you need to shoot and submit your footage on July 24th, 2010. Everyone whose footage is selected will receive a co-director credit in what is surely to be the longest opening credits sequence ever. This idea has actually sparked the imagination of several directors. In fact, Uwe Boll's firsthand experience with Epic Fails has him in talks to direct Break: The Movie (Ed. Note: Lie), and Brett Ratner is spending a lot of time on ChatRoulette. A frightening amount of time actually. (THR)
Where in the hell did the movie Operation: Endgame come from? It stars Rob Corddry, Zach Galifianakis, Maggie Q, Adam Scott, Ving Rhames, Ellen Barkin, Bob Odenkirk, Brandon T. Jackson, Jeffrey Tambor, and Odette Yustman. I'd watch that cast wallow in used diapers for 90 minutes. The action-comedy follows two teams of government spies pitted against one another. Of course, most of the men are inept and the women are smokin' hot ass-kickers, but the jokes play. Unfortunately the film is being dumped to DVD, which I find hard to believe considering it stars the now "it" comedian Galifiankis. Maybe the world just isn't ready to see him engage in espionage. Check out the red band trailer for Operation: Endgame below:
After a string of box office failures, Kevin Smith finds a successful second career as a mime.Don't expect to hear too much about Kevin Smith's Red State. Spurned by the media coverage caused by Southwest's no fatties policy, the director has decided to make his Fred Phelps-inspired genre-bending horror film quietly with no major announcements to the press. He'd also like to stay away from casting big names for the project, and focus more on the difficult task of casting well-known unknowns. This where story am confusing. Explain me Kevin, Smith."For the first time since "Clerks" I'm trying to go, not unknown, but actors who aren't like, you're gonna see them on screen and not know their name…it's a weird kind of in between neither place that I'm reaching for. It's not complete unknown and it's not remotely f*cking recognizable, name recognizable…It's really tough to find actors whose name you don't know. You know you can go to "Law and Order" and grab anybody from the cast and they've done five or six episodes and sh*t but you'd still recognize them and you'd be watching the movie and be like "that's that dude, I've seen that dude on "Law and Order!" "Huh? So, he's making a "Law & Order" movie? Without Sam Waterston? What's going on here? Did you catch all that Britney??(Collider)
M. Night Shyamalan's string of box-office failures has finally caught up with him. With the critical and financial debacle known as The Last Airbender dying a slow, painful death in theaters, Universal is seeking to distance its upcoming project, The Night Chronicles: Devil, from the director. Universal has decided to tweak the title a bit to something less … attributed to. According to Box Office Mojo the film will now be known simply as Devil. A safe move considering the crap The Last Airbender has been getting from critics and fans alike. While renaming the film is a great idea, I'm not sure it's going to fool everyone. Instead of Devil, maybe they should have went with The First Water Straightener or Not an M. Night Shyamalan Movie, just to be sure. (DreadCentral)
Sí se puede…make an awesome Lego trailer.Outside of Hobo with a Shotgun, Machete might be the greatest trailer ever made. But even the best wasn't good enough for filmmaker David Vann, who decided to improve upon perfection by doing a scene-for-scene remake of the trailer using Legos. Needless to say, it's awesome. Even in Lego form, Danny Trejo is a terrifying man. (CinemaBlend) Watch the Lego version of Machete after the jump.
If you liked the domestic trailer for The Green Hornet, you'll love the new international trailer. It's basically the same as the domestic, except all references to freedom and democracy have been removed. The same goes for the scene where Seth Rogen wraps himself in an American flag and takes a dump on a map of the world. Other than that, it's pretty much the same.Watch the international trailer for the The Green Hornet after the jump.

Good news everybody!! In forty years when we're all greeting the chubby masses at Wal-Mart because there's no money left for Social Security payouts, we can at least sleep peacefully knowing that the Twilight leads/murderers are living more than comfortably. Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner will be paid $41 million to mumble their way through The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn. That breaks down to $25 million upfront plus 7.5 percent of the gross revenue. Multiply that by the fact that the gross is a f*ckload and you've got MO' MONEY! MO' MONEY!! MO' MONEY!!! That's solid arithmetic so don't even reach for your calculator.But, you know what? They've earned it. They put their privacy and safety in harms way on a daily basis. Bless those marble-mouthed youngsters and their chiseled stomachs. Now if you'll excuse me. The car I live in is being towed. Time to turn on the waterworks. (/Film)
In today's edition of No Sh*t, Sherlock News, Roger L. Jackson, the actor who provided the voice of Ghostface killer, not rapper Ghostface Killah, in the previous Scream movies is returning for Scream 4. He pushed "staring into the abyss" two months and now there's an opening in his schedule. Jackson proclaimed in his normal voice:"It's a lot of fun, I love the work! It's going to be a great horror sequel."So there you have it, the guy who does the voice of Ghostface says not to worry about all the rewrites and recasting that is going on with Scream 4, it's going to be a great horror sequel. He's elated the gang could get back together so he can continue to shake off the stink of being the voice of Skeet Ulrich. (CinemaBlend)
Our sentiments exactly.Looks like MGM's brokeassedness will cost them a lot more than just The Hobbit. The studio's historic James Bond series is also reportedly out this bitch. Production has halted on the upcoming Sam Mendes-directed Bond 23, and that it may not begin again. In fact, it could be years before we see Bond on the big screen again. Which means we'll have to spend our time mercilessly blowing up our friends with proximity mines. Which gets old after the first few hundred times. From the UK Daily Mirror:Production crew were told in April the £132million blockbuster, starring Daniel Craig, had been postponed amid "financial problems" at debt-ridden movie studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, which co-funded the film.But now it has confirmed the movie has been axed – and it could be years before the secret agent with a licence to kill is back on the big screen.Bond has been MGM's golden ticket for years on end. If they can't scrape together assets to make another blockbuster, it's unlikely they'll weather this storm. Better keep those Daniel Craig popsicles in the freezer for now, lame housewives and weird dudes. They're scary collector's items now.
Here's a quick video that turns "Arrested Development" into an action movie. Until I watched it, I didn't realize just how much fighting, shooting, and ziplining there was in the show. This could be a new direction for the feature film that will probably never get made. The Bluth family doesn't take kindly to anyone tearing them apart but themselves. Cue Buster mowing down a crowd of pedestrians.
Wicked Lasers designed a blue laser called the Spyder III Pro Arctic that looks an awful lot like a lightsaber. It has the ability to kill people, and LucasFilm has a problem with that. Even the warning on the product itself basically says not to turn the thing on: Warning: Extremely dangerous is an understatement to the power of 1W of laser power. It will blind permanently and instantly and set fire quickly to skin and other body parts, use with extreme caution and only when using the included eye protection. Customers will be required to completely read and agree to our Class IV Laser Hazard Acknowledgment Form. It doesn't get more metal than setting fire to skin and other body parts. Do they mean body parts not covered by skin? What kind of creature is handling these miracles of modern science? Apparently those pussies at LucasFilm can't handle the shear awesomeness of death lasers: It has come to our attention that a company called Wicked Lasers is selling a highly dangerous product out of Hong Kong that is designed to look like a lightsaber from Star Wars. This product is not licensed or approved by Lucasfilm in any way. We have demanded that Wicked Lasers immediately cease and desist their infringing activities. As Wicked Lasers itself admits, this product can cause serious injury to the user and other people. We strongly discourage consumers from purchasing it. I guess I get it. Someone sells a product that resembles a cherished icon from your landmark films, and said product sets some kid on fire, you might wind up with egg on your face. But it's awesome blue egg that emits a 445nm ultra high power 1W beam which appears up to 4000% brighter than the Sonar's 405nm violet beam! Check out video of the Spyder III after the jump…
Very rudely, the Predator race has used the planet as their personal playground without so much as a tip of the hat.This year, they're back, and they're taking some of us with them back to their personal game reserve.

He's made Adrien Brody go full-retard and Mark Wahlberg apologize to plants, but it looks like M. Night Shyamalan won't have the opportunity to shame Bradley Cooper. The A-Team star, who has flown tanks and willingly posed for the above picture, has opted out of Shyamalan's next project (which the Law of Averages dictates will be terrible) due to "schedule conflicts." Mmmmm-hmmmm.It's believed that Cooper will be tied up with The Hangover 2, but the news comes at a suspicious time as Shyamalan's The Last Airbender is drawing the worst reviews of the year. And let's not forget, Furry Vengeance and Clash of the Titans came out this year. Ryan Reynolds would be wise to screen his calls for the next few weeks. (Philly.com)
Last month, director/screenwriter Corey Edwards started a pissing match with the Weinstein Brothers over a possible new Fraggle movie. In a post on his blog, Edwards claimed that the Weinsteins were searching for a new screenwriter because his version was not "edgy" enough. Now comes word that Edwards and the Weinsteins have cleared the air, probably due to the fact that Edwards is contractually obligated to direct the film. I've been able to sit down with Weinstein's new VP of Development and really talk about their issues with the movie. We've had some very good conversations about what they think "edgy" is and what I think "edgy" is. We got down to the philosophies of why to even make a Fraggle movie in the first place. And I think they've been able to qualify their word "edgy" with the word "older." They want this movie to connect with an older, more sophisticated audience. I'm surprised this is even an issue. What can be more "sophisticated" than a bunch of glorified sock puppets singing and dancing in a magical underground world? As the following quote from Jim Henson demonstrates, sophistication is what the Fraggles are all about. "It is a high-energy, raucous musical romp. It's a lot of silliness. It's wonderful." (/Film)
Robert Rodriguez wants to make Sin City 2. Fans want to see Sin City 2. Studios and theater owners want to make money off of Sin City 2? So what the hell's the hold up on Sin City 2?Apparently, Rodriguez just hasn't been able to find the time for a followup. After all, Spy Kids 4 and The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl aren't going to make themselves.But now comes word that Rodriguez has finally started a much needed rewrite to the Sin City 2 script, and the director is still very excited about the project. With any luck, fans will be seeing violent, on-screen castrations before the end of the decade. (Cinema Blend)
When James Cameron isn't saving the indigenous people of South America or cleaning up the BP oil spill, he spends time on his favorite hobby: filmmaking. Currently, Cameron is tinkering with a little-known film called Titanic. It was originally released in 1997 and was primarily shown in art-house theaters and on college campuses. Now, Cameron hopes to bring his work to a wider audience by converting it to 3D and re-releasing it to theaters in April of 2012.2012 marks the 100th anniversary of the Titanic's sinking, which went down on April 14th, 1912, much to the delight of melodramatic film lovers everywhere.

How bad is Twilight: Eclipse? It's so bad that men in the prime of their lives are dropping dead after a single viewing. Don't believe me? Then how do you explain this poor "transient" in New Zealand? The body of the man was found in a movie theatre at the Reading complex on Courtenay Place by a staff member shortly before 8.30pm last night, said police. The theatre had been screening The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.Well, there you have it. Twilight kills. What other explanation can there be for why a 23-year-old transient would drop dead?

Yaya DaCosta may not be a face well known to the big screen with indie exceptions The Messenger and Honeydipper, your girlfriend has seen her as "American's Next Top Model" first runner-up, on cosmetic commericals of Olay lotions, and "Ugly Betty."

With every passing day, it becomes increasingly likely that MGM's no money-induced mo' problems will doom The Hobbit to development hell. Now, at the risk of losing Gandalf the Grey, it's time for MGM to take a lush, sprawling, epic sh*t or get off the high fantasy pot. Sidenote: Led Zeppelin would not be half as successful without high fantasy pot.Sir Ian McKellan sat down with New Zealand's Good Morning show to discuss how he may be out this bitch:"Well, I'm not under contract and my time is running out and I'm enjoying working in the theater and frankly, I would like to race after doing 'Waiting For Godot,' get on with doing another play but we'll have to see. I don't give the producers the impression that I'm sitting waiting." Yikes. Looks like a decision needs to be made sooner than later.

'Bout time we see Jason Momoa causing pain as Conan the Barbarian. The first pic released showed him, what looked like, smelling a fart, completely not covered in someone else's blood. I'm not sure why water is spraying at him in the above pic, but my guess is one of those barrels they place on the side of the highway clipped him while he was trying to make the exit, and he had to lay the smackdown. If this movie is about Conan battling an army of road barricades it's going to be awesome. (/Film)

Perhaps I read your post wrong?
I'm sure the shocks can be made to work shorter, but this ain't about the shock. As with lowering links, a shorter shock changes where your linkage thinks the wheel is in its travel. Remember that it isn't linear. All I know is that on mine, the suspension was more willing to compress with the lowering links in place. I adjusted the shock to fight it, but the thing never felt the same. Always felt like I was into its travel, if that makes any sense. Not horribly so, but I wanted to stop the knobs ripping into the bike's undersides anyway, so I went back to stock.
Again, with dual-sporty tires like stock Saharas, it's probably no worries. Ditto on the rear suspension's travel. For a 90/10 street/dirt LC4, it's probably no worries. I rarely even ride mine outside of the rough stuff, though, so I want all the travel it was built with.

Breen states that 1914 proofs have a "coarse sandblast finish," and indeed the surfaces do appear to have slightly larger granules than does the NGC Proof 66 1913, or it may just seem so because of the pronounced difference in color between the two coins. This piece exhibits light hairlining across the surface, and while not patently obvious, the effect is just enough to account for the grade. (NGC ID# 26H3, PCGS# 9211)

I'm 26 years old, but I feel like my face is falling! I lost weight earlier this year, along with any remaining baby fat in my face, apparently. My cheeks are flat, and my tear troughs are greatly accentuated due to the volume loss in my face. I'm really shying away from any type of surgery, so what options do I have to help restore volume in these areas? My only concern is that I have super sensitive eyes (my lower eyelids got incredibly swollen from using Botox), so I'm worried I may have a bad reaction (i.e. tons of swelling) to fillers in this area. Any suggestions for alternatives to fillers? Please help!

The people in the New Prague area had a strong commitment to building an area Community Center with an ice arena as the first phase of the project. The population growth in our area was one of the highest for small towns in Minnesota. Participation in ice skating sports for boys and girls was growing. The availability of ice rental time had dramatically diminished to a point of major concern for the New Prague Hockey Association and High School teams. Space for indoor recreational, athletic, and community activities was in high demand. The need for a multiple use facility was becoming a high priority.
A group of community volunteers began to make it a reality when they became organized as a Task Force in February 1995. Their mission was to develop and implement a plan to construct a facility that would bring a wide variety of community participation. Visits were made to other arenas in our area, and Information was obtained from the Minnesota Amateur Sports Commission, the Minnesota Amateur Hockey Association and the Minnesota Ice Arena Managers' Association. A business plan was constructed and implemented; committees were formed to organize the many volunteers efforts.
Work intensified in the Spring of 1995. The location was selected and preliminary plans for the building were drawn. Construction costs were estimated, and an operating financial plan was projected. The major discussion centered on the financing of the building. Once the Mighty Ducks legislation had passed, work began on our application for a grant; as well as the fund raising plan. With financial restraints on our cities and schools we knew that we could not look to them for financial support for a project of this size. Major funds would have to come through private and business donations and in kind contributions of labor and materials from a variety of local businesses and partners.
The Task Force officially became the New Prague Area Community Center Association, Inc., with a Board of Directors in July 1995. An informational brochure was published, efforts to build community support for the project continued and fund raising efforts began.
Raising funds continued through the fall and winter. When the New Prague Community Center received the Mighty Ducks Grant, the goal was met. In August of 1996 a groundbreaking ceremony made it official, and the Community Center was to become a reality. On December 1, 1996 the Community Center officially opened when the first New Prague/Montgomery/Lonsdale High School hockey game was played.

TATTOOS on girls??
what do you think? tattoos on girls, hott or not?
Most Helpful Opinion
Only in certains ares, Girls look hot with tattoos on the upper corner shoulder, lower stomach by the thigh, ankle and butt cheek (thats the hottest)
Butt cheek's the hottest huh? LOL!!!
i still haven't made up my mind yet, I'm seriously considering one on my lower stomach though...
thanks for your answer!!
What Guys Said 18
I think tattoos should have a special meaning since they are permanent. If I ask a girl why she got a tattoo and she says "because I felt like getting one" that's a bad thing. Also, getting tattoos in places that only someone who's having sex with you will see, not too cool to me, but I know I'm in the minority there. Overall I don't mind, but they should be tasteful and have special meaning.
Well, I haven't gotten it as yet, still considering it!
but it'll be tasteful and meaningful!!!
i would have to say I'm not a huge fan of tats on girls. something small on the back/shoulder/hip/bum or something is ok. but it has to be something that looks cute, nothing too big. I think japanese or chinese characters look pretty good. I like the idea of having a tatoo saying peace or something like that. cartoon characters or anything like that is just tacky, and definitely the tramp stamp on the lower middle back is quite skanky.
i wouldn't go out with a girl that had biggish tatoos on her arms/legs or anywhere visible, it would be an instant no. as bad as that sounds, my whole family would be shocked if I brought over a girl for christmas or whatever and she had a huge tatoo on her leg or forearm or her back or whatever. saying that though, pamela andersons barb wire tatoo looks pretty hot, and so does a lot of angeline jolies tatoos. so long as the tatoo is meaningful and is in good taste and isn't too big I think it can look pretty sexy. but everyone is different, I'm sure a lot of guys out there love girls covered in tatoos, but I think the majority of guys wouldnt.
Kool, thanks for the honesty!
and I didn't get one.....YET!!!! LOL!!!
yes YES yes YEEESSSSS.
just if you have slightly larger thighs and you get a really small tattoo there, it can make your thighs look fat even if they are really not.
I don't get it why would a tat make the thighs look fat.
Neither did i!!!
I recently had a girl that had that one. she was average size but she had a really skinny tatoo on her thigh and it just made her look bigger. I know cause I had the other blank side to compare. try I yourself in the mirror with a marker or something. just make sure the fake tat you are making is skinny and small like I said and you will see what I mean.
I'd say it depends on the location and nature of the tattoo. One thing though is for sure, the far too common "tramp stamp" on the lower back is NOT hot. I like the line from the Wedding Crashers: "it might as well be a bullseye." Either it makes a girl look like she's easy or it just looks tacky and unattractive. The other rule to consider when thinking about tats on women, is that it is very possible to have too many tattoos. One or two small tattoos on the shoulder or on back might be kinda sexy, but f the tats are large or all the way down the arms, it just makes a girl look like she must have problems. The simple truth is that it is hard to put on something hotter than just the plain skin you're blessed with. Very few people ever regret NOT getting a tattoo; however, the inverse of this statement. yea. I think everyone knows that's not true.
The unfortunate truth about our culture it that if a guy gets all tatted up, people will think he looks like a bad boy, or a thug,. you get the idea.
However, if a girl goes and gets all tatted up, people will think she has problems, she's an easy target, She's not the kinda girl you bring home to mom, she's lost her innocence. etc. etc.
I absolutely love ink on women! BUT, it needs to be tasteful and well done! There is too many tats out there that are horribly done, and horrid! I also think that it is dependent on life-style, image, and career! As a business professional, I frequent dinners and black tie affairs that I hate to say, don't allow tattoos to be obvious! I can't have a women on my arm that is wearing a dress, showing the tattoos that adorn her chest, back, arms, legs, etc. I hate to have that be the case, but that life for me. I know many women that have tattoos that I consider art, which I consider beautiful! Women with that butterfly, or lotus flower, or stars, truly make me wonder if they actually thought about what they were getting, and if they always want to be portrayed as a 16 year old!
So what would you suggest???
What is your lifestyle? Do you see yourself being in my position now, or in a few years? I know of a few things that I feel are truly gorgeous! It just depends on you...
What about a small tattoo on a girl's wrist and/or around her thumb, like a ring?
Sorry to say it but, not. I just respect, and like the way God makes people too much to see tattoos as anything positive. Besides, the only way to be completely sure you are safe is to abstain from the things that can give you what you don't want. Abstinence is actually worth the investment.
What Girls Said 4
When I told my dad that I wanted a tattoo, he told me that I was 18 years old and technically an adult so I could do whatever I wanted.
He just said that if I did get one, it should be tasteful and it shouldn't prevent me from wearing an evening dress when I'm 40 years old and a major executive for some big company.
I thought about that for a long time and the tat I finally got is in a private place and I think its really pretty and my dad would approve if he could see it (which I don't let him).
Just my $.02 FWIW.,
Have an opinion?

Collins, E; Cox, AL; (2014) Switch on to games: Can digital games aid post-work recovery? International Journal of Human Computer Studies , 72 (8-9) pp. 654-662. 10.1016/j.ijhcs.2013.12.006.
|PDF - Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader
Recovery is a necessary factor in avoiding work-related strain and in feeling prepared for the next day of work. In order for recovery to be successful, an individual must experience psychological detachment from work, relaxation, mastery experiences and a sense of control, all of which have been argued to be assisted by digital game use. However, it is unclear whether these associations will be greater for certain digital game genres, or whether this would extend to other recovery-related outcomes, for instance work home interference (WHI), where the stress from work interferes with home-life. These factors may be vital in determining whether interventions aimed at improving recovery using digital games would be effective, and what form these should take. The present research surveyed 491 participants and found that the total number of hours spent playing digital games per week was positively correlated with overall recovery. Correlations varied with genre, highlighting the importance of game characteristics in this relationship: first person shooters and action games were most highly correlated with recovery. Moreover, digital game use was not related to a reduction in work-home interference. When restricting the analysis to gamers who report to have developed online relationships, online social support mediated the relationship between digital game use and recovery. Results are discussed in terms of how digital games may be utilised to improve recovery and reduce work-related stress. © 2014 The Authors.

Abuja — Since Nigeria's new mega-opposition party formed last year, it has been clear that they do not support the ruling People's Democratic Party.
The PDP has run Nigeria since the nation became a democracy in 1999 despite challenges from formidable opposition parties.
Last year, after years of trying and failing, the major opposition parties merged in the All Progressive Congress (APC) to contest the 2015 elections. Several of Nigeria's powerful state governors have defected to the new party.
At a conference in Abuja Thursday, APC leaders said fighting corruption is one of the new party's main priorities.
"Let there be no doubt in our minds at all about the link between corruption and lack of jobs in our country," said Babatunde Fashola who is the governor of Lagos state, Nigeria's financial capital.
"If we had a government that was serious about fighting corruption, there would be financial resources to create jobs," he added. " Instead of stopping this corruption, this government pardons those convicted of corruption and removes those who point it out."
The new party also says it will push for job creation, educational reform, religious freedom and unity among Nigeria's ethnic and religious groups.
Sixteen of Nigeria's 36 governors attended the rally, joined by other opposition leadership, including former military ruler and 2011 presidential candidate Muhammadu Buhari.
Analysts say the biggest challenge for the formerly competing parties will be to stand behind a single leader in the upcoming elections.
The candidate will likely face President Goodluck Jonathan, who has not made a formal announcement but is expected to run.
Buhari blames Nigeria's problems, like mass unemployment, widespread abject poverty, and an escalating insurgency in the north on the current government.
"We have tremendous human and material resources, but our lack of ability to put good leadership to manage these enormous resources, both human and material, has become our problem and the youth have become highly agitated," said Buhari.
Nearly 1,000 people were killed in post-election violence in 2011, and upcoming elections are expected to be the most hotly contested in Nigerian history.
The new opposition party has hopes to win the popular vote, and then pull off the first peaceful transition of power from one party to another in Nigeria's young democracy.

Who is going to training camp?
I've never been to a Falcons training camp. I believe this will be the first year that the Falcons hold camp at Flowery Branch. I'm just curious to know who all is planning to go. I hope one day I will be able to visit camp. If I'm lucky, maybe that will be next summer.

I live not too far from there, so I might try to go to an evening session of two. If I remember correctly, Mora likes to do an alternating schedule where one day they have morning and evening practices and the next day have one afternoon practice. So, it should be possible for me to get to a few (might even take the family with me).

Originally written on Louisville Card Game | Last updated 2/12/13
We've caught Jared Swopshire in Big Ten action a couple of times on TV this season, recognizing that familiar running styles of his, pleased to see him playing a leading role for a change. But not for long. His rocky college basketball career is done. The former University of Louisville player, who transferred to Northwestern this season, underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee on Tuesday and will miss the remainder of the season. He suffered an injury to the knee during the second half of a game at Iowa over the weekend. Swopshire started 24 games this season, averaging 9.7 points and 6.7 rebounds per game. His average of 7.5 rebounds per contest in Big Ten play currently ranks fifth in the league. The overall norm of 6.7 rebounds per game marks the highest average by a Northwestern player since Evan Eschmeyer averaged 10.1 per contest during the 1998-99 season. Quite a boost from his senior season at UofL last year when Swopshire averaged 3.3 points and 2.8 rebounds. He was sidelined for the 2010-11 season with a groin injury.
