Texas A&M Senior
40: 4.59
Has a strong arm that can fire some lasers and fight some tight windows. A good athlete that can make plays with his legs. Deceptive quickness and burst as a runner. able to extend plays and drives. Does a nice job side-stepping pressure and finding throwing lanes within the pocket. Does a nice job stepping up in the pocket, locating his read or check down ver the middle. Does a nice job keeping his eyes downfield. Able to roll left or right and deliver the ball downfield. Has nice footwork when he works from under center. Shows good accuracy and placement on many of his throws. SHows anticipation and ability to lead his receivers and throw away from defenders. Does a nice job making throws that allow his receivers to go up and get the ball, especially his bigger targets. Shows touch and good placement on many of his vertical throws. Able to make the back-shoulder throw. Can fit the ball well with good placement when trying to deliver with touch between two defensive backs downfield. Will use the pump fake to try and move the defender.
Inconsistent with his decision making and accuracy at times. Will lead his receivers too much and make them work too hard for some easier throws. Can be late on reads which allow defenders to jump the routes to make big plays. Throws too many interceptions where he doesn't see a sitting underneath defender in zone. Throws inside a bit too much at times when throwing outside the numbers. Will force too many throws into tighter windows, leading to some turnovers. Throws into coverage deep down the seam. Needs to show more consistent touch and placement on his deep throws. Not an explosive runner. Doesn't always show great ability to anticipate and avoid pressure and blitzes. Doesn't always set his feet on the rollouts. Misses too many opportunities, particularly in the redzone.
Tannehill began his career as a wide receiver and was productive in the role, unable to beat out Jerod Johnson. But when Johnson really struggled during the first half of his senior year, he was plugged into the lineup and A&M won 5 straight games with him as the starter. He came back as a senior and showed improvement and a sort of comfort and subtlety that you would expect out of a guy that played the position for many years rather than one, but it didn't always translate to results on the field. You see flashes of ability with Tannehill, with his arm strength, athleticism, and accuracy make him a complete package. But the inconsistency and the fact that despite his ability it didn't always net positive results not he field makes you believe he needs much more seasoning. He's still raw, but flashes the sort of intangibles that you really like his potential if he gets a chance to sit and learn. He played quarterback in high school and was a solid dual threat. He's also noted for his intelligence and work ethic and the fact that he was able to instantly win over the locker room as a junior when he was plugged into the starting lineup. Part of that was from his freshman year when he lost the job to Johnson and without any issue moved to wide receiver for the betterment of the team.

The key word with Tannehill is upside. When you see his skill set, it projects very well to the NFL game, and reminds me a lot of Aaron Rodgers. But like Rodgers, Tannehill needs time to develop. Rodgers sitting for three years behind Favre I think was instrumental to his current success in the league. If Tannehill got that sort of time to develop behind a veteran and get comfortable running an offense, I think he could be similarly a top-rated and potentially elite passer in a short while later. But he probably doesn't have that sort of luxury at this point in the league when the development of quarterbacks has been sped up so much in recent years. I think a team that plugs him into the starting lineup immediately is making a mistake. I think he can handle it mentally, but I think he's several years from having success as a starter. And the problem will be all that mediocre tape he has early in his career will sour a fan base to him and make it harder for a coaching staff to show the patience they need to. He's one of those guys that may be a fairly below average and inconsistent starter his first two or so years in the league, but by the time his third year takes off he can start to blossom. But that's not guaranteed. There is some Mark Sanchez potential with him, who also was a fairly green quarterback coming into the league with only 16 career starts. Like Sanchez, Tannehill just might be too inconsistent to really blossom as a starter if he's thrown to the wolves too early. It could stunt his growth. Given the unlikelihood he'll get multiple years to sit ideally, he'll sit for at least for a full year like Carson Palmer years back. If he lands on a team like Miami, that he'll have some continuity on offense with Mike Sherman being the offensive coordinator, so you think he might be able to make it with half a year sitting the bench. I think at worst he'll be an average starter that may wind up blossoming later in his career similar to a guy like Rich Gannon. I do think at some point Tannehill is going to be a successful NFL quarterback because I like his intangibles, and he showed to be a very quick study at Texas A&M. I'm just not sure it'll immediately translate to success early on. A team that is patient and doesn't put too much on his plate, and let him still develop behind a strong running game and/or defense would be the best situation for him. He has the instincts to be a Top 10 QB, but just doesn't have the experience and feel yet for the position to think that's immediately on the horizon.
Aaron Rodgers, Packers.
Tannehill would be a good developmental insurance policy behind Matt Ryan. Unlike Ryan, he's got the sort of arm strength and athleticism that clearly distinguishes him from the game. And at least in Atlanta, he wouldn't be asked to play immediately and thus can be developed at his own pace. In such an event that he was on the Falcons, he could potentially be a nice fallback option in case Ryan doesn't blossom over the next two to three years and be a good alternative that due to his physical skills might be better suited to the conservative style of offense the Falcons have displayed up until now. More than likely however, he would be traded at some point down the line and merit the Falcons a future first round pick.
Tannehill has first round ability, but would normally be a late first round pick because it's going to take some time before he reaches his potential. But because of the pressure to develop good quarterbacks, he'll likely get drafted much earlier. He is not really worth a Top 10 pick because he's mostly a boom/bust guy. But a Top 20 pick for a team that was willing to sit him at least a year.

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
The whole Ace Attorney series is absolutely fantastic. This one is probably my second favourite of the bunce. Superbly written, unforgettable characters, witty, funny, pure genius! The game itself is challening too. But it's the story that drives it.

About Zauber Paracelsus
Doesn't he know that the easy way is always mined?
You just know that Nash is going to say something about this on the next episode of "What The **** Is Wrong With You?"
There certainly isn't anything 'creative', though copyright seems to have multiple standards today. Either way, legitimate or not, Microsoft used the quickest and easiest tool they had to take down the product keys.
They could have simply invalidated those keys, though I think they may have already been registered by a legitimate user. Simply disabling them in that case could actually land them in hot water. In some places, such as Europe, it is illegal to disable a product that someone has already paid for.
Actually, what I had heard was radically different. I had spoken to a former Microsoft employee who I know, and he stated that what Microsoft had actually made the copyright claims against were the individual comments, and that google/youtube had screwed up by taking down the videos instead.
Okay, apparently the + sign got converted to a space for some reason.
The link to the announcement is broken
Ignoring the creepout factor and the ethics, this really begs one question:
With reporters, journalists, and newspapers so focused on reporting bad news (ie: "if it bleeds, it leads"), what affect is that focus going to have on society?
One of the sources I read stated that the signing key itself may have been recently changed. However, the original sources of the claims were not cited.
Hold on, isn't Russian supposed to have more obscenities and swear words than any other language on earth?
Okay, Google apparently has the original newspaper article archived: http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1876&dat=19990430&id=yTofAAAAIBAJ&sjid=xc8EAAAAIBA J&pg=6924,7037849
Dead link in the article about the 13-year-old kid. Apparently the website that originally hosted the article is gone. The page doesn't exist on archive.org either.
You know, I think I realized where the support for secondary liability comes from. It comes from the general belief that when you're in charge of something, you are responsible for the actions of your subordinates.
Except, that doesn't really apply in these situations because the users are NOT subordinates. They are entirely outside of the organization, and therefor the people in charge aren't responsible for their actions.
As I've said several times to people before, "Ideas are worthless. It's what you do with them that has value."
I'm waiting for the day when someone sues the government of Germany for secondary liability, on grounds that they allow citizenship for infringers.
I recall a few years ago that a case similar to this appeared on Judge Judy, involving either a PS3 or an XBox 360. Judge Judy has a low tolerance for nonsense, and she did not have any patience for the scammer, who was adamant that she had done nothing wrong.
As they say with open source, "with enough eyes, all bugs are shallow". I suppose with enough eyes, all scams are shallow as well.
Wow, it is a complete shock that a website devoted to catering to dishonorable behavior would be engaging in dishonorable behavior themselves!
I am completely against such a thing. In fact, a law allowing DDoS as a form of protest may actually violate the first amendment because just as a DDoS can be used to exercise your first amendment rights, it can also be used to silence the free speech of others, and in effect the law would provide a new way for people to censor speech they disagree with.
Corporations and businesses with low ethical standards would greatly appreciate such a law, as it would legally allow them to silence critics and shut down bad reviews.
"If I could have legitimately sued every time a technology -- especially a backup storage system -- failed without being repairable, I'd have a hell of a lot more money."
I know how that feels. I've had five SATA devices fail over the years: four hard drives and one DVD burner. The DVD burner bricked in unison with a hard drive. I'm placing the blame on the PSU in my computer, which failed after three years of usage (almost to the day I first turned on the computer).
You see a similar thing with tooth brushes. For years I've been using those electric tooth brushes which marketers love to claim are more effective at cleaning between teeth than the outdated manual toothbrushes.
I've since started using a manual toothbrush again, and I've found that it is what is more effective, while the electric toothbrush has the inferior effectiveness.
This all spawns from the fallacy that technology keeps getting better and that newer automatically means better, when in fact it quite often gets worse. And sometimes, it gets both better and worse (thanks to things like planned obsolescence or just poor quality in general).
How many of you have upgraded an OS or application for its much-touted newer features, but found yourself downgrading to the previous version because it worked better?
Sadly, in spite of this a lot of people continue to believe that newer is always better, and marketers love to take advantage of such beliefs.

Put the glasses back in the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours.
When the parfaits are quite firm, decorate the tops with chocolate caraque and serve immediately.

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
ATLANTA - A House committee threw a monkey wrench Wednesday into legislation authorizing Sunday beer sales at Gwinnett's new baseball stadium by attaching a statewide Sunday sales measure that Gov. Sonny Perdue has threatened to veto.Over the adamant objections of Sen. Renee Unterman, R-Buford, the stadium bill's chief sponsor, the House Regulated Industries Committee voted unanimously to combine the Gwinnett measure with legislation allowing voters to decide whether liquor can be sold on Sundays in supermarkets and convenience stores in their communities. The retail sales bill has languished in the Senate for two years, facing strong opposition from Christian conservatives. The amendment route was the only path left to get it before lawmakers this late in the current session. The problem with that thinking, Unterman warned Wednesday, is that combining the bills will mean failure for both. "If it goes to the governor's office, it's going to be vetoed," she said. "I say you have to separate the two issues." The Senate passed the stadium bill 30-20 last month. It would plug a gap in current law that allows Sunday sales of beer at publicly owned stadiums, coliseums and auditoriums inside city limits but not in unincorporated areas. The AAA Gwinnett Braves plan to begin play in the spring of next year at a stadium to be built on Ga. Highway 20 near the Mall of Georgia in unincorporated Gwinnett. In pitching the bill on Wednesday, Unterman said it makes no sense that current law allows alcohol to be sold and consumed on Sundays at restaurants near the site of the new ballpark but would prohibit beer inside the stadium. "You literally could almost hit a baseball (from the stadium) into a facility that's selling beer on Sunday," she said. "People who go to a baseball stadium (on a Sunday) want to have the ability to drink a beer." Committee members agreed with that fairness argument and, in fact, used it to justify attaching Sunday retail sales to Unterman's legislation. "People could come to grocery stores and convenience stores, buy whatever they want and go home with it," said Rep. Roger Williams, R-Dalton, the committee's chairman. "I see that as much less dangerous than going to a ball game, drinking a beer, getting into an automobile and running the risk of killing people." But Unterman said she never intended for the Gwinnett bill to be hijacked by the statewide measure. "My issue is a stadium issue," she said. "I want this stadium. I want the beer. But I'm not going to vote for Sunday sales." Rep. Allen Freeman, R-Macon, responded by accusing Unterman of hypocrisy by pushing Sunday beer sales to baseball fans as an economic boon to Gwinnett County while being unwilling to entertain the idea of Sunday sales elsewhere in Georgia. "You support Sunday sales because it's good for you," he told the senator. "But you don't want to give the economic development to everybody else." After the vote, Perdue spokesman Bert Brantley appeared to justify Unterman's concerns that folding Sunday sales into the legislation would hurt the stadium bill's prospects. He said the governor, who doesn't drink, wouldn't be inclined to sign the Sunday sales measure. On top of that, Brantley said, Perdue doesn't like it when the legislature passes bills on more than one subject. "If an idea has merit, let's let it stand on its own," Brantley said.

Spanning over a thousand years and an immense geographical area, the Roman Empire was the greatest in world history. At its most powerful, the Empire cast a shadow across the known world, and its legacy continues to influence politics, art and culture around the world today. Rome's power was won on the battlefield, and the greatness of the Empire is reflected in the warlike reputations of the enemies it subdued. Hannibal and the Carthaginians, Mithridates, the Gauls, the Sassanid Persians and the infamous Gothsand Huns are amongst the forces that battled the might of Rome. Rome and Her Enemies juxtaposes the society and military structure of each of these peoples with those of the contemporary Roman army. It is divided into four chronological sections focusing on all the major wars and battles. It is lavishly illustrated throughout, and color photographs, artwork and maps support the text to provide a comprehensive introduction to the rise and fall of an empire created and destroyed by war.Introduction by Tom Holland, bestselling author of "Persian Fire" and "Rubicon".

Telling You The Truth, Not Just What You Want To Hear
I'm a very busy 26 year old man who loves to explore life and it's surprises; Hence, why i'm on match.com. My career takes a lot of my time. However, any time i get time to myself, It's spend wisely. Firstly, spending time with my two boys is primary and i genuinely enjoy watching them grow and learn new things. I take pride in helping them study and teaching them the things they need to know in order to become successful in their academics. Furthermore, I enjoy saying "yes I will go with you, put me down" when a friend invites me to a BBQ, concert, sports event, short vacation, bar, club etc. I take "spontaneous" to the next level. I believe in working hard and playing harder. On the flip side,there's a time and a place for everything, so going out is not always the best idea; Sometimes staying in and keeping it simple works just fine. Growing up in a household where the adults were always out working long hours, i taught myself to cook, clean, fold clothes, and take care of others such as my siblings. As a result, i am extremely self sufficient and do not need nor am i interested in anyone pampering me, or waiting on me. I am not old school and do not mind a lady who also works hard. But, i am very open minded and wouldn't mind being with someone who is old school. If you are curious about me, just ask and "I will tell you the truth, not just what you want to hear

Often, it is the small expenses in life that combine to knock your budget completely out of whack.
When it comes to having a bad credit history versus no credit history,
consumers tend to think the latter is better. Contrary to what these
consumers might think, the outcome – in some cases – is the same.
If you feel like you are stuck in debt and cannot get out, take a look at these five reasons you may be struggling, then make a plan to change.
6 months after North Carolina's decision to cut off
federal long-term unemployment benefits for nearly 70,000 people, some have
given up looking.
Consumer experts say more stores are "slicing & dicing" their return policies. And in some cases, retailers will not issue any refunds, even with a receipt. Overall, 28 percent of retailers changed their holiday return policies
this year, according to a survey by the National Retail Federation.
New mortgage rules go into effect in 2014 aimed at
preventing a repeat of the meltdown that led to millions of
Americans losing their homes.
Contrary to what some people believe, you can still celebrate the holidays in style without throwing your budget out the window.
There are bullies on the playground, in the classroom and at the office. Or perhaps right beside you at home. With money often cited as one of the top causes of divorce, it's important to sort out financial conflicts to avoid financial bullying.

Crist to choose School Board member next week to replace Calabrese
NAPLES - The Collier County School Board could have a new member by next week, Gov. Charlie Crist said Friday in Naples.
Crist interviewed a final cut of six candidates to fill the seat left vacant by School Board member Richard Calabrese's resignation, effective Jan. 1. Calabrese cited health reasons.
The interviews at the Edison State College campus in East Naples were the first stop for Crist on a daylong series of events in Collier County that touched on environmental preservation and baseball.
"I was very impressed with all six," Crist said during a stop at Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve. "I mean, great candidates, very impressive resumes, very passionate about education, which is what I'm looking for."
Candidates waiting for an interview Friday outside the Edison College president's office were retired Naples police detective Joe Whitehead; retired Palmetto Ridge High School Principal Roy Terry; Professional Building Systems project manager Mario Valle; Cheryl Couture, president of the Southwest Florida 9/12 Project; Karen Acquard, a grandmother who serves on the Big Corkscrew Island Firefighters Association and James Guerrero, a self-employed contractor.
Twenty hopefuls submitted applications to Crist's office to fill the open seat.
Members of the Student Government Association at Edison shook hands with Crist as he walked into the administration building.
"Not everyone has a chance to meet the governor," said Flor Martinez, 19, a student government senator.

I thought it was a given that they were going to do a trilogy with each of the main games. I dont really know though because i dont really follow the franchise
Is this game going to actually finish the story, or is AC3-2 next
@redbliss said:

Definitely not. The first game was a standalone. The second game seemed to be sent out as an either/or... it could've ended with the ending and I think ACIII would still make sense, but Brotherhood did have meaningful exposition. However, Revelations was a waste of time story-wise.
I think I could swallow TWO games from the third "iteration," but if they stretch it into a three-parter, count me out of the third. At least this time I'll know how worthless the third game will be.
@project343: I always felt that Revelations and Brotherhood should've been one game using the addtions from Brotherhood and half of the story from Revelations to tell the later years of Ezio how he became leader of the Brotherhood of Assassin's and his journey to find Altair's findings but they decided to annualize the franchise so at some point you'll get a game that doesn't really change the formula significantly.
@DoctorWelch: If you are strictly using counters, you are not making the most of the systems at play. If you are not using the social stealth that has been core to the series, you are not making the most of the systems at play. It's all fine and good to trash a game for being too simple, but if you are only scratching at the surface-level stuff, you should probably be withholding that opinion.
It sounds like what you're looking for is more difficult encounters to force you to actually utilize these systems.
@AngelN7: I actually like the Brotherhood story more than any other. Unlike AC2, it's not nearly as long-winded and doesn't lose its focus. Unlike Revelations, it doesn't use prior games as crutches. There was just something elegant about a Ezio going toe-to-toe with an incredibly dramatized caricatures of the Borgia family within the single setting of Rome--fighting their corruption every step of the way.
AC2 felt like one of those messy carriage ride mini-games that the series has thrown in everywhere: too many random obstacles, a bit repetitive, and it goes on a tad long. I love seeing the 'coming of age' story, and the initiation, but boy does that stuff go on for far too long (especially with the missing chapters DLC).
I think Revelations could have been compressed into a DLC pack for the Altair disk-hunting stuff, and I think the Desmond shattered-memory thing could have been an XBLA/flash game. That would have made the whole thing a lot less unforgiving.
@pyromagnestir said:
Assassin's Creed is like a comic book now. It won't end. The "end" will come when people stop buying them and so they stop making them.
It saddens me when I remember that this line of reasoning applies to any popular series with a story that I actually like.
Like, imagine if Konami had confidence in their ability to generate profit, and actually let Kojima finish the Metal Gear series with MGS4, and *gasp* actually go on to work on a new project. Instead, no, let's have the Metal Gear series limp onward for another decade or two.
@project343: I don't know I didn't felt the struggle to free Rome from the Borgia as powerfull as it was to witness Ezio's journey, from being a young brash Firenze kid to a really skilled assassin and I'd say Rodrigo Borgia was a stronger villain (he became the god damn pope!) sure it kinda dragged and the pace wasn't as exciting but it was a really great arc also this...
Now that I think about it I kinda like Assassin's Creed 2 more than I care to admit, you can maybe shave some unnecesary bits of the story but I think you kinda have to take all of it to appreciate that journey, Brotherhood had a more focused story I can see why some people may have been put off by AC2 length and overall pace.
@project343: What do you mean "strictly using combos"? There aren't any big enemy to enemy combos in the game, that's just how the combat is designed. The combat is not deep and complex like it is in Batman because the designers didn't make it that way. It has nothing to do with how you or I play the game.
Also, I don't think the term "social stealth" means anything...because it's not actually a term. So, I'm not going to directly comment on that. If what you were trying to say is that the stealth is core to the series and I'm playing it wrong, well you're a little closer with that sentiment than with the combat, but still not correct. The first Assassin's Creed was designed with the acrobatics, environments, and stealth in mind. The real shortcoming of that game was that it's stealth was horribly implemented, and completely optional. The game was fun, but when it came to killing targets the game rewarded you for running in, alerting everyone, stabbing the dude in the throat, and then running away. It's not my fault they designed the game that way.
Then, Assassin's Creed II came along. Instead of implementing the stealth differently, they kept it the way it is, and simply designed the game around the systems already in place. The missions in ACII are much more suited to how the game plays, and stealth is, like I said before, more akin to something like the GTA police rating rather than the Metal Gear/Splinter Cell/Dishonored/Mark of the Ninja/Insert other stealth game here. This ended up working out for the game because it's now focused on exploration and blending in with the world around you while killing the dudes along the way. Unlike other games, ACII doesn't require you to plan every move out and then reload the save if you screwed up. This is because the stealth is shallower, and much less punishing. This really works out because the whole flow of the game feels much more natural than reloading saves and planning every little step does.
In conclusion, the combat and stealth systems in Assassin's Creed are deliberately lenient and shallow because it fits in with the way they are structuring the world to fit with the theme of exploration and establishing a believable world to blend into while being a bad ass assassin.

Dude will obviously head down south and fight some Spaniards or some shit you can bet on it. Connor will be the old man at the head of the Assassin's Order during the Texas revolution. How he managed to live to be 80+ years in the 1800s? Well that has to do with the Pieces of Eden. Look out for more of my awesome AC fan fiction.
But seriously; I also want to see some resolution to Desmond's story, it's only right. However I would obviously play any AC game that comes after ACIII anyway so...still wrap it up Ubisoft, I have to know why that chick was stabbed.
@DoctorWelch: That was a word substitution. I meant counters. And there's a lot more to the combat than counters, particularly with all the tools that they add to your arsenal as the series as moved forward. Personally, I much prefer the Assassin's Creed combat over Batman. Batman just feels like a glorified singleplayer fighting game, and a bit too gamey. At the very least Assassin's Creed's combat gives you some proper tools to use however you like.
Social stealth does mean something. It's a core marketing term that they used to sell the original game, and have continued to use it throughout the series. You seem to attribute having optional stealth with it being a poorly implemented system, and this is the furthest thing from the case. You can't sell a AAA, big-budget action game loaded with mandatory stealth spread throughout the experience; why do you think that Splinter Cell, Metal Gear, and the like have moved into being a lot more forgiving? And the game is actually designed to be a lot more rewarding if you take the stealth approach, just look at the notoriety system, or the synchronization system.
You seem to be oblivious to the social stealth system: it has nothing to do with notoriety. Social stealth is manipulating social encounters (rather than shadows) to bypass obstacles. It's blending in with crowds, blending in with the environment, using courtesans, using thieves, using mercenaries, throwing money, using corpses, using your brotherhood members, using poison, etc.. You use these tools to overcome obstacles without raising awareness to yourself, and it's a system almost wholly unique to the Assassin's Creed series (other stealth games certainly have social stealth elements, but certainly not to this degree). Less punishing =/= more shallow. It's optional, but that doesn't make the system any less nuanced. Let me use this same argument to unfairly judge Dishonored/Conviction/MGS4: I can just murder my way through all the guards in Dishonored/Conviction/MGS4 without any real repercussion... so the stealth must be fucking shit in those games.

I think we'll get an "untold tale" of Ezio game at some point due to the popularity of that character.
@project343: First of all, the word counter and combo are completely different, so what the hell are you even talking about. Second of all, the combat is when the guy actually knows you are there, not the ways you can kill him when he doesn't. When the guys know you are there, the game is strictly about countering their attacks, that's just the way the design is. When they don't know you're there, you have many ways to kill them, which can be fun, but the easiest one is usually an assassination.
Second, if you're trying to use a stupid marketing term to argue about something in a game, you've already failed. Social stealth means nothing. Those two words together have literally nothing to do with anything in the Assassin's Creed games, so don't act like knowing a marketing term means anything. As I've said twice already, the stealth systems in the game act as a GTA police rating, and the mechanics are designed around that to make the game feel more believable so it's not about stealth, it's about being a part of a believable world.
I'm going to stop responding and repeating myself because you clearly aren't reading what I'm writing. You're just arguing for the sake of arguing, which is made extremely clear by your touting of a marketing term.
@DoctorWelch: Word substitution. They obviously have nothing to do with one another. I've since edited my initial post in case you're still dumbfounded. You have entirely different weapons, you have unarmed with stuns, disables, and disarms, you have guns, smoke bombs, throwing knives, grapples, throws, environmental kills... countering can certainly be the most efficient in certain situations, but in others it's entirely useless (i.e. dudes with polearms).
It's the name of a system. When I talk about social stealth, I'm not talking about the fucking nomenclature, I'm simply using it to summarize the before-mentioned mechanics at play that fall under that name. You're arguing semantics, and completely ignoring my argument. Address the blending in with crowds, blending in with the environment, using courtesans, using thieves, using mercenaries, throwing money, using corpses, using your brotherhood members, using poison, etc., and stop talking about the notoriety system (read: what you call the 'GTA police rating'). That is an entirely different system that I'm not including under the social stealth system when I use the term 'social stealth'.
Clearly you aren't reading what I'm writing if you're still bringing up GTA.
@project343: Let me break it down.
1. The disables, disarms, guns, bombs knives, etc. are completely separate from the combat because the combat is purely about countering. That other stuff is used before the combat, and during the combat to escape. There's no point in arguing that further because that is just a fact about the design.
2. The fact that you said combo instead of counter means you didn't comprehend my explanation of the combat. So, going back and fixing it after I point it out doesn't mean you suddenly understand.
3. The notoriety system, which is analogous to the GTA system, is what causes there to be stealth. Without it there would be no point to any of the other mechanics you list that let you interact with that. There is my point.
If you still don't understand why the combat is simple compared to something like Batman and stealth is simple compared to other stealth games because both of those systems are designed that way to perpetuate the flow of the gameplay and believably of the world, I can help you no further.
@DoctorWelch: You can't just close stuff off to argument by calling it a fact.
- Disables and stuns can only be used in combat. Guns are paramount to taking out key targets mid-combat. Knives are spectacular for killing targets who aren't focused on you. Smoke bombs work wonders to stun the entire group and give you ample time to assassinate a few trouble markers before returning to the defensive. Clearly you did not state a 'fact' if I just provided evidence to the contrary. My point is that there is a lot more nuance to the melee combat (with the second entry onward) than countering.
- What does a word substitution have to do with my comprehension of the system? I should have re-read over what I wrote and edited it before submitting. If you would like to learn more about word substitution, here is a fantastic little link for you. In case you're lazy: I was thinking 'counter' and wrote 'combo' because I was reviewing your argument on the lack of a proper combo system. Naturally, combo stuck in my head when writing my rebuttal. Simple as that. What did you actually say? a) there is no traditional combo system in the game, b) the entire thing is counter-driven, c) there's not a whole lot to the combat aside from the counter system as it is the most effective way to take people down. Did I get that right? If so, see #1 for my counter-argument.
- The notoriety system makes the use of social stealth significantly more important, but there are other ways that the series forces you to use social stealth without it (restricted areas, guards blocking pathways, non-natural activity like being on top of buildings, the syncronization system). Hell, the notoriety system was introduced with the second entry... so does that mean that it was non-existent in AC1? Fuck no. It was all over that game, and crutch to quite a few of the assassinations. You could certainly find a way around it, but it made your life significantly more difficult. In GTA, you cannot use social stealth (read: blending in with crowds, blending in with the environment, using courtesans, using thieves, using mercenaries, throwing money, using corpses, using your brotherhood members, using poison, etc.) to avoid these encounters. These tools are what make the Assassin's Creed series, not the silly notoriety thing. These tools are what nuance the stealth well beyond the simple 'run far enough away from pursuers' of GTA; it is not a simple system, and these tools certainly justify that.
It just sounds like you're playing these games like a quarterback. I mean, fair enough. It certainly requires the least mental effort, but you can't go around saying that these are simple systems because you refuse to take advantage of them. Do you need them? Fuck no, but it makes the experience significantly more nuanced and unique.

Infographic: What if you bought stock in Apple in 1980?
Spoiler: you would make bank. Via GoBankingRates:
Many investors are experiencing hindsight regret by not taking firm action with Apple long ago. In December 12, 1980, one share of Apple stock (APPL) was worth $2.75, which has grown to $396.75 in August 2011.
Since 2005, Apple stock prices have experienced an upward climb with the acclaim of the iPod and release of the first generation iPhone in 2007. Apple Inc. stock is among the leading competitors in the tech field, just behind Google and easily surpassing Microsoft.
Q1 2011 was booming with the iPhone being Apple's highest revenue-generating product at $10.47 billion. The iPad takes the second seat at $4.6 billion in revenue, not to mention other revenue outlets such as portables ($3.7 billion), iPods ($3.43 billion), desktops ($1.73 billion), music ($1.43 billion), software ($786 million) and peripherals ($593 million).

I'm using Emacs/AucTeX for editing LaTeX files. In some of my LaTeX files, I have defined some "file-specific" command (e.g.
\todo{...} in one file,
\compute{...} in another, and so on), so I can keep track of what open problems I have in my documents.
The Emacs command
highlight-regexp does quite a good joob in highlightning all occurences of
\todo{...}s resp.
\compute{...}s. But up to now I have to execute the highlightning manually every time I open the corresponding file.
Is there a way of telling Emacs/AucTeX to invoke specific commands when opening a particular file? I would like to define these commands inside the corresponding file, so I can easily adjust it for different files (maybe included in local variables).

Using the estimated values, compute the estimated force of gravitional attraction between two cows, showing calculations.
Asssuming that g=10m/s^2, what would you determine the gravitational force between the two cows to be? Estimate and list in SI values for the quantities you would need to know.
1 Answer | Add Yours
Mass of cow(1) is 300 kg
Mass of cow(2) is 240 kg.
The cows are kept 30 meters apart from each other at the surface of Earth.
In order to calculate the gravitational force of attraction between the two cows, their weights must be converted to units of mass. That means dividing each weight by g, 10 m/s2.
Thus, the mass of cow(1) is:
`M_1= 300/10 =30` kg-mass
The mass of cow(2) is:
`M_2= 240/10=24` kg-mass
Substituting the values into the equation for gravitational force, we get:
`F = G(Mm)/R^2`
This is indeed a very small force.
Hence the force of gravitional attraction between two cows kept 30 m apart is `5.34*10^-11 N` .

Swedish Retail Sales Rise More Than Estimated Amid Rate Cuts
Jan. 28 (Bloomberg) -- Swedish retail sales growth accelerated last month after the central bank cut interest rates to support the slowing economy growth.
Sales grew an annual 2.5 percent in December, compared with 0.9 percent the previous month, Stockholm-based Statistics Sweden said today. The median estimate in a survey of five economists by Bloomberg was for a 1.4 percent increase. Monthly retail sales rose 1.2 percent.
Sweden's central bank on Dec. 18 reduced its benchmark interest rate by a quarter of a percentage point for a fourth time in a year, bringing it to 1 percent, as the Nordic country suffers from slowing export demand. The bank predicted it will keep the benchmark rate unchanged until the end of this year.
Lending to households rose an annual 4.5 percent in December, slowing from 4.6 percent in November, Statistics Sweden also said today. Lending was estimated to rise 4.6 percent, according to the average of four economist estimates.
Record household indebtedness has prompted the Riksbank to discuss the possibility of introducing loan limits relative to household incomes, or forcing amortization of mortgages to ease imbalances. While an 85 percent cap on loans relative to property values that was introduced in October 2010 has slowed borrowing growth from levels above 10 percent between 2004 and 2008, more measures could be needed to curb debt further to avoid a housing bubble, the central bank has said.
Sweden should target annual household borrowing growth of no more than 4 percent, Finance Minister Anders Borg has said.

If you had one shot, one opportunity, or one moment to seize everything you ever wanted--- Would you capture it or just let it slip away?
Originally from West Africa. Went to high school, undergrad, & grad school in pennsylvania. I am not your average 27 year old guy. Y? Because I am a little bit : socialite, nerd, bad boy, romantic, career-driven & adventurous. The 2 most important ladies in my life now are my sister and mother. I can give up the world in a heart beat for them. I listen to NPR( sorry if u dont know, but it s National Public Radio) on my way to work everyday. Politics run in my blood. I am a diehard liberal, and think Obama is doing a good job considering what he inherited. Ok, enough with the politics. I listen to hip hop (old school rap is better than these autotones & fake rappers now), R&B, Country (Tim McGraw), Gospel (especially African Gospel), Pop( MJ will always be the king), & Reggae. I love reading, but have not read anything in couple of months. I Think Everyone should read The Secret. I was into clubbing alot when I was in college. But I think as a sign of growing up, I am not into clubbing that much now. I would rather spend time with my date at a classy lounge enjoying some stimulating conversation or at a park on a breezy summer day just relaxing and chatting. I love traveling. I have been to Vegas (3x), San Franscico & LA (2x), Atlanta (2x), NYC, DC, NC, MN, NM, AZ, OH, etc. I have been to 20 States, still got 30 more to go. I hit the gym atleast 4x a week. When I am not at work, or at the gym, or traveling, or chilin with friends, you can catch me on the tennis court. I have been playing tennis since high school. If you can play tennis, even better. One passion I have yet to fulfill is flying. So I am excited about the prospect of starting flight school in couple of months. That's who I am.. So if u like the nerdy, socialite, career-driven & adventurous guy, hit me up.
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing
Basketball, Running, Swimming, Tennis / Racquet sports, Weights / Machines

I wouldn't recommend this game. It's not that fun, and it's also "beatable" You can explore the whole world, kill all the bosses, and get all the items and best armor in about a week.

Macs are incompatible with almost every pc game there is. Unless you get steam or bootcamp. No wonder everyone who owns a mac buys an windows 7 disc bringing windows market shares even higher, due to compatibility. Yet no one building a pc will use osx.
My point is there might be alot of compatiblity issues with macs and not every developer will make their games compatible. But some games has both windows and mac releases.

This April we introduced a very exciting wine education program hosted by Solbar Sommieler, Bradley Wasserman. Every Thursday and Saturday Bradley chooses a topic or varitel and guests can taste and learn about each wine.
Here are some sample sessions:
Each tasting lasts an hour and is usually hosted near the bocce courts. The Wine 101 sessions are complimentary to resort guests and Club Solage Members.
Friday, June 10th we hosted a Summer Kick-off BBQ at our pool and officially introduced our new pool bar to guests and members. The new 650 square foot pool bar now has bar seating and a full service kitchen for all our pool goers. The kick off party was huge success. Items from the new pool menu were featured along with a signature cocktail from lead bartender and Napa, Sonoma bartender of the year, Michael Pazdon. Complimentary massages, henna tattoos, live music, face painting and balloon animals were available to those in attendance.
Here are some highlights
On July 16th, Calistoga will be celebrating it's 125th birthday. A party will be hosted downtown with live music, family activities, bouncy houses, street performers, food, wine from historic Calistoga wineries, art, and much more. We have enjoyed being part of such an amazing community can look forward to the next 125 years.
Happy Birthday Calistoga!

Buffalo Bills cornerback Leodis McKelvin has become the NFL's highest-paid returner. A source told FOXSports.com that McKelvin has agreed to a four-year, $20 million contract with the Bills. Further financial details were not immediately available. McKelvin, 27, was set to become an unrestricted free-agent when the NFL signing period opened Tuesday. He enjoyed a spectacular season on special teams for the Bills. McKelvin averaged an NFL-high 18.7 yards on his 23 punt returns and scored twice. He also averaged 28.3 yards on 18 kickoff returns. McKelvin, the 11th overall pick in the 2008 NFL draft, started four games at cornerback and played in nine others. He intercepted one pass and registered three interceptions.
