Judy Blume Diagnosed With Breast Cancer
Perhaps the greatest children's author of all time has revealed she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
As PEOPLE reports, Judy Blume received the news over the summer. Blume revealed the news in a post yesterday on her website called !@#$% Happens. Blume writes the cancer was found after a doctor told her she should get a mammogram because of dense breast tissue. She was getting ready to leave for five weeks in Italy where she hoped to finish her latest book.
In Blume's words (that read just like one of her world famous novels):
A visit to the radiologist on June 12 for a routine ultrasound (dense breast tissue) led to a core biopsy. Not that I didn't try to jump off the table and tell Dr. S I'd have the biopsy at another time because I had a reallybusy summer coming up. Oh, yeah–I actually did that, saying I'd discuss it with my GYN and get back to her. She convinced me, in her very quiet way, that my GYN would tell me to have the biopsy. Now.
The biopsy report came back a few days later while I was with my GYN in her office (a long standing appointment). It was good that I wasn't alone and that she, who has been my doctor for seventeen years, could explain it to me. Very early. Very small. Well differentiated. All good news. But it was ductal carcinoma.
Wait me? There's no breast cancer in my family (recent extensive genetic testing shows no genetic connection). I haven't eaten red meat in more than 30 years. I've never smoked, I exercise every day, forget alcohol – it's bad for my reflux – I've been the same weight my whole adult life. How is this possible? Well, guess what it's possible.

The PGA of America on Thursday announced prices for tickets to the 2014 championship at Valhalla, where fans who are pre-registered online can access the grounds for as little as $25 in early practice rounds.
Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Aug. 12 to those registered at 2014PGA.com beginning with purchasing Group A - the first to sign up when the website launched. Those in Group A have 72 hours to claim tickets before access opens to Group B.

Oh my god, @mb changed his image. Now I don't get Lateralus stuck in my head every time I read his posts.
Anyway, yeah, I thought this was promised to be fixed back when the new site launched and became clinically depressed when I saw that it wasn't.
@mb: Is there any way for you to report these spammers to authorities or anything? I mean, this isn't just piracy, but some seriously illegal activities.
Report them to the FBI? Waste of time. Spammers typically don't even operate out of the United States. The most recent one's IP was from Cameroon and I can almost guarantee you that was a TOR exit node.

Hi FaTFoX,
It's look like file permissions or ownerships issue . You can simply test it, just try access shortcode file directly at your browsers. For example: domain.com/subfolder/wp-content/themes/breath/inc/shortcodes/buttons.php
If you can't access it via browser you need check permissions.

EL community rallies to help 7-year-old eye cancer patientPublished 11:05am Tuesday, January 29, 2013
Last February, seven year-old Tatum Libbesmeier woke up with a sore eye. This would start a series of treatments and visits to physicians from Morris and St. Cloud to Minneapolis and Pennsylvania. After many difficult exploratory exams, Tatum was diagnosed with retinoblastoma, a cancer of the eye that is extremely rare, especially in young people.
While Tatum continues to be treated in Minneapolis, she is also undergoing treatment, including chemotherapy at Wills Eye Institute in Philadelphia, PA, one of the world's premier eye care facilities.
The Elbow Lake Lions Club was instrumental in getting fundraising started last fall, raising $2,682 in Elbow Lake, and $5,282 overall from area Lions Clubs.
"Lions have a focus on vision issues," said Elbow Lake Lions Club president Al Schoenbauer. "We also want to help people in need in the community."
Unfortunately, the money raised was exhausted by medical costs and travel expenses. With another trip to Philadelphia coming up on February 4, bills will again mount for this young family of four from Herman.
"It takes about $3,000 each trip for the three of us to go to Philadelphia, and that doesn't include medical costs," said Scott Libbesmeier, Tatum's dad. "If she improves, it will take a minimum of six trips over the next three years to clear her."
While Tatum's doctor is "hopeful," the tumor is still present in her eye. The appointment coming up next week is a big one. The family will find out if the tumor shrinking or not.
"Worst-case scenario, they would remove her left eye to decrease the chance of cancer spreading to her brain," said Lisa Libbesmeier, Tatum's mom.
The family decided last December to keep Tatum out of school since she is too susceptible to infection. Her mom, Lisa, has had to quit her job to stay home with Tatum, while Scott continues to work full-time.
"Paul at Lakeside Seeds has been amazing, giving me time off whenever I need it," said Scott, adding that in addition to what Tatum is going through, he worries about Tatum's big sister. "Macee is 10, and it's hard on her when Tatum gets all the attention, even if it is negative attention. We try and get Macee out to activities."
While Tatum's parents say she is a trooper — never complaining about long doctor visits, blood draws, other tests and medicine — the most difficult thing for the little girl is not being able to do anything like going outside, ice skating, seeing her friends at school, or just being a kid like her big sister.
"It stinks — cancer is horrible, but we have to stay positive," said Lisa.
Since the case is difficult and rare, John Hopkins University requested and received all of the case notes to study.
"This was God's plan to give this evil monster to such a tough little girl so no other kids have to go through such a long process," said Lisa.
"It's difficult to comprehend until this happens to your own child," said Scott. "We have good days and bad days."
"We have all these people around us, great support from my family nearby, and my husband is a rock," said Lisa. "We are just taking it day by day."
You can follow Tatum's journey on www.caringbridge.org, a web site for people undergoing a health crisis, by typing in tatumlibbesmeier in the box under "visit someone."
Please consider making a contribution to the Tatum Libbesmeier Medical Fund, c/o Eagle Bank, PO Box 955, Elbow Lake, MN 56531, or in person at Eagle Bank in Elbow Lake. On-line contributions can also be made at www.gofundme.com/Fight-Like-a-Girl.

Batman Forever
Release Date:
1995 - Warner Bros.
Joel Shumacher
Val Kilmer - Batman/Bruce Wayne, Tommy Lee Jones - Two-Face/Harvey Dent, Jim Carrey - Riddler/Edward Nygma, Nicole Kidman - Dr. Chase Meridian, Chris O'Donnell - Robin/Dick Grayson, Michael Gough - Alfred Pennyworth.
The Dark Knight of Gotham faces multiple villains again in "Two-Face" and the "Riddler". After a criminal throws acid in the face of handsome prosecutor Harvey Dent, the former District Attorney spawns a villainous multiple personality named "Two Face", horribly scarred on one side (the evil side), and beautiful on the other (good side), he is a crime lord obsessed with indiscriminate chance--due to his view of the injustice of his injury. Using a two-sided coin, he makes all decisions by flipping either heads or tails. Two-Face illogically blames Batman for his disfigurement and simply wishes him dead. The Riddler, real name Edward Nygma, is a disgruntled inventor and ex-employee of Wayne Enterprises. Terribly jealous of Wayne's success and sophistication, and rebuffed for the invention of a device that meddles with the human mind, he uses riddles to show his superiority over Wayne and Batman. Inserting herself into the mix is a sexy criminal psychologist who is turned on by the Batman's split personality syndrome. And a crime-figting partner is born when Two-Face tries to blow up the circus. Acrobat Dick Grayson becomes the high flying boy wonder "Robin" when his whole family is killed by Two-Face's actions. Feeling guilty because it was all a ploy to draw out The Batman, Bruce adopts Dick, and eventually the youth discovers the Batcave. Also introduced in this movie is new director Joel Schumacher, credited with killing the franchise by bringing in too much kitch and neon.

The Mayor's Effects
Ralph Gardner Jr. Attends an Auction of Ed Koch's Possessions
"He'd love to be here," Pat Thaler said, without irony. She was referring to the former mayor of New York, and her brother, Ed Koch. And she wasn't talking about a memorial service or a political symposium in his honor. Rather, we were standing in the middle of Doyle, the Upper East Side auction house, where Mr. Koch's furniture, art, correspondence and the occasional tchotchke was scheduled to go under the hammer a few days hence.
(The sale was in two parts. The furniture and artwork was sold on Monday, and his letters, books and ephemera will be auctioned on Nov. 25.)
It's probably the rare individual who would want to be present as his beloved possessions were sold to the highest bidder. But Ed Koch was a rare individual. And what he enjoyed most of all, based on my experience of watching him over the years, was any event where he was the center of attention.
If it happened to be an auction, so be it. The important thing was that he be surrounded by friends and admirers. Indeed, he'd probably even have delivered a pithy speech explaining why he chose each and every object, the history behind it and why it deserved to bring a premium. Although Doyle's auctioneers are undoubtedly talented, I have absolutely no doubt that the furniture would have pulled in double the amount had Ed Koch been around to peddle it.
Even so, I always thought of the mayor as a modest man, that physical possessions were near the bottom of his personal hierarchy of needs. "He was very practical," Ms. Thaler acknowledged. She mentioned among his favorite things a burgundy leather upholstered club chair and ottoman. Its auction estimate was a humble $200 to $300.
I even considered bidding on it myself. Even though I have nowhere to put the seat, it would have been fun to own something that belonged to the great man. Would it be too tacky to affix a gold plaque inscribed with: "Ed Koch sat here"?
He "had a big TV in the living room; I gave that to one of his drivers," Ms. Thaler said. "He'd make himself a very simple dinner and eat it while he sat in the chair."
She said she didn't keep many things for herself. "I kept a couple of side rugs and pieces of art—enough to remind me about Ed. He had a collection of ceramic horses. He gave me a list of his closest friends to give a horse."
I suspect John LoCicero, Ed Koch's friend and political adviser going back to his earliest campaigns, was one of them. Mr. LoCicero, standing near the back of the gallery, obviously recognized the furniture.
"We had lunch every Saturday," he remembered, referring to the mayor and friends such as public relations consultant George Arzt, restaurateur Peter Aschkenasy and former Parks Commissioner Henry Stern. "After we argued for an hour," typically about politics, "we'd argue where we'd go eat. He loved to go to Peking Duck, Peter Luger, Villa Mosconi. And a lot of the time we went to these new restaurants. He'd say, 'I'm not going back there again.' I'd say, 'What? Not enough garlic?'"
"To say he's gone, it's like one of the guys said: 'It's not the same.' No s—."
But about the furniture. I never conceived of Ed Koch as the sort of person who would covet Barcelona chairs, a pair of which bore an auction estimate of $500 to $700, or a Frank Lloyd Wright fruitwood dining room table with a set of six matching chairs (the chairs went for $11,250, with the buyer's premium.) Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis "reportedly" sat in one of them during a dinner party, according to Anna Hicks, Doyle's vice president in charge of furniture and decorative arts. "I don't think he had her sign the chair," she said.
Perhaps that's the event Ms. Onassis was referring to in a letter to be sold during the second part of the sale. Dated July 12, 1991, two years after Mr. Koch left office, it begins: "Never have I had such a joyous time. I don't think we ever stopped laughing. Your love of life is contagious and you sent everyone home feeling a happiness and insouciance that does not"—the word "not" is underlined twice—"happen every day in dear old N.Y.C." The estimate on that is $200 to $300, but I'm willing to predict it will go for more.
"He was very proud of the furniture," Mr. LoCicero went on. "They're designer pieces."
He thinks that Diane Coffey, Mr. Koch's City Hall chief of staff, might have played a role in the furniture's acquisition. "Ed was a Depression baby," Mr. LoCicero said. "He liked to buy things on sale. But this furniture was not on sale."
Also attending the auction preview was David Reese, the curator of the Louis Armstrong House Museum in Queens. Mr. Reese worked as the curator of Gracie Mansion under mayors Koch, Dinkins, Giuliani and Bloomberg. He seemed to have special affection for Mr. Koch. "He was an extremely modest man," Mr. Reese remembered. "He had a vitrine full of glass objects—as he would call them, tchotchkes. He loved animals—turtles, birds. He would not allow the staff to touch them. No dusting."
That TV chair and ottoman went for $875, almost triple its high estimate. I'm glad it did well, the result suggesting that whoever bought the seat did so as much for the man who once occupied it as for its comfort. I'm sure the mayor would have been pleased.

Panacea's sophomore effort, The Scenic Rout, is a journey. Yes it is a hip hop LP, but more than that, it is a surreal, deeply musical and incredibly unique concept album. From start to finish, the listener is able to follow the evolution of not only the character on the journey, but of Panacea as artists. The result is something so new that its creativity will intrigue even today's most jaded listeners.

A ball of hot flickering fire. Usually thrown from the hero's hand into the squealing face of the enemy.
Even though water in games tends to bring about death, we all still hold it near and dear to us. After all, the human body is comprised mostly of it.
A length of exceptionally sharp metal with a handle, used for centuries as the go-to killing device for the human race. It's dead simple: you stick the pointy end in the thing you want to die. Or you could always slash them with the equally sharp sides. That works too.
A bomb is an explosive device.
A computer is a common object in video games. They can be used for many purposes; to trigger objects - such as a lift or a bomb, gather information, or even to play games.
A weapon or tool that can be thrown and then returned to the user.

By Valerie firstname.lastname@example.com Guitars will be tuned and sound will be checked, before tonight's kickoff of the annual "Music in the Park" concert series in Stockbridge. From April through October, the city offers the free concerts from 7 to 10 p.m., on the fourth Saturday of each month, in Memorial Park. Tonight's event will feature the Naked Hearts Band, a five-piece variety band. The May 23 performance will feature music by The Regulars, a pop-variety band with a blues feel. Music on June 27 will be provided by Tammy Allen. Allen, according to concert organizers, performed at the Atlanta Jazz Festival in 2006 and 2007, and for the Smooth Jazz 107.5 WJZZ concert series at Villa Christina in Dunwoody. The Music in the Park series features a variety of musical styles, concert organizers said, including jazz, pop, oldies, rock, blues, and country. Concert attendees are encouraged to bring a chair and blanket. Food concessions benefiting local charities will be available, and the playground and basketball courts will be open. City ordinances prohibit animals in the park area. The annual concert series is always popular, said Stockbridge City Councilwoman Kathryn Gilbert. "They are really well-received," said Gilbert. "It's always good to have people in a relaxed, lovely atmosphere enjoying themselves." The city is working with Peachtree Music Professional, Inc., in McDonough to coordinate this year's concert series. Gilbert said that once word gets out about the musical performances, attendance is usually strong. Depending on the group playing, she continued, music lovers have been known to travel to the concerts from as far away as Peachtree City, and DeKalb and Rockdale counties. "There are people coming in from all over," Gilbert said. "As a resident of the city, I appreciate the efforts of the city in cooperation with Peachtree Music to bring a free, family-friendly entertainment opportunity to the area," she said. Memorial Park is located at 106 Jennings Way, Stockbridge. For more information, or directions to the park, call (770) 389-7900.

Some highlights from a few days in Scottsdale, Ariz., enjoying the sun-drenched circus that is spring training:
Giants infielder Kensuke Tanaka, No. 88 – that's "yaso kara hachi" (88) in Japanese – put on a show Saturday, going the other way for two hits, stealing a base, and starting the game at second with a sweet throw from deep up the middle to rob a Chicago Cubs player of a hit.
Giant emeritus Will Clark and ex-Giants postseason hero Cody Ross (now with the Arizona Diamondbacks) remain fan favorites for a reason. Clark smiled and emphatically pointed to a fan hollering his name. Ross, walking past appreciative Giants' fans, turned when his name was called, busted out his big grin, pointed and tipped his cap.
Giants left-hander Barry Zito is looking sharp. In three innings Sunday against the Diamondbacks, his breaking pitches snapped like firecrackers, reminding that his 15-8 record in 2012 was no fluke.
John "Blue Moon" Odom, part of a great A's rotation in the late 1960s and early '70s, signed autographs, with proceeds going to charity, at Scottsdale Stadium. Odom, affable and smiling, has a strong handshake.
Dinner at Don and Charlie's was worth the wait: Willie Mays signing autographs in the lobby; tons of baseball people milling around; Bud Selig in a back room holding court. Amazing steaks, too.
The cost for a three-person round of "bomber"-size beers (24 ounces, lime included) of more than $40 is painful, regardless of the friendly and fun atmosphere.

The things people do for love. Tommy Lee has "gone veggie" for his on-again relationship with Pamela Anderson. We all know Pam has been a longtime animal activist and a vegetarian so her man is supporting her by giving up meat as well.
He says, "I just went vegetarian (and) I dig it, I feel lighter, I like it. I figured that this is something I hadn't done yet but wanted to. At this point in my life, I'm down to trying anything I haven't done yet."
So is he gonna go back to eating meat when they breakup? What's the craziest thing you've done to win over a loved one?

Well, maybe that doesn't apply to video drivers, I haven't developed any so I wouldn't know realy. Anyway the bug/problem is not new, there have been plenty of time to do something about it but we don't even have a clue if they ever will.
I have tried out the nouveu driver a little and I must say it does perform quite well atm, feels even more responsive than Nvidias driver in some cases. Of cource the driver is only in an early developing stage yet and not ready for daily use, but It's interesting to see that a project built on register readings can create a driver that actually works as good and even better then Nvidias driver in some cases in this time.
Hi ollebull,
thanks for these tips/info.
I too looked into the nouveau (sp?) project a while back in the hopes of providing some feedback or whatever for my hardware, for development purposes, but at the time, they already had current test results for my cards. I never did try the driver though; as I recall (or actually DON'T recall
) I didn't see a driver available for use/testing. I will have to look again.
I too know little to none about driver developing, but I have learned during my experimenting with other aspects of video interaction with the linux kernel, that the nvidia driver is much more than your typical 'kernel driver', and it provides a lot of functionality to a Linux machine (to the kernel) that is otherwise not there at all. For example, for USB devices, there are core built-ins in the kernel (a subsystem if you will), and then each individual type of USB device has a little tiny driver of its own. Same goes for IDE drives, and so on.. For a (nvidia) driver, there is really no such built in subsystem; instead, there's Xorg, a colossus of a program, running on top of the kernel.
I know it is a kind of 6-or-a-half-dozen situation as far as video hardware is concerned with the kernel, but the kernel itself provides VERY little in the way of significant hardware access or functionality when it comes to more than a basic one-card, one-screen setup, let alone acceleration et al.. Xorg and proprietary drivers take care of the lions share of work; from system-boot right till X starts, the best one can hope for is a single VGA/VESA console and/or framebuffer.
Even something which to me (again I have little knowledge about) seems would be rather simple, that being control /usage of both of my video cards (particularly without Xorg involved), is impossible without Xorg and the nvidia driver, even for simple console mode.
My humble opinion is that if there were more work done on the part of the kernel (a subsystem of some kind, to deal directly with the hardware), then the nvidia driver might be able to accomplish more, by having to do less on its own, but at the same time, I understand that there are just so many video cards out there that this is a rather lofty idea.
To clarify this concept I am trying to convey, here's a terrible comparison: pretend that a BIOS is actually the operating system of a computer, and Windows/Linux/Whatever is just a giant module plugged into it... Well, that's kinda how I interpret the nvidia driver situation: Linux kernel is a small part of the equation, but has this giant module plugged into it which is supposed to perform nearly 100% of an astronomical task, not to mention Xorg and a Desktop Environment squeezed in the middle.
Sure seems like a full time job keeping that balancing act working
If nothing else, I hope that this post just inspires further discussion. Maybe I am way off base in the way I see the situation, but again, I can only base what I say on my own experience to date.

I'm getting into game development right now, and I want to do 3D games. I have been checking out UDK, Unity, and CryEngine 3 SDK. All of them, I can see, have their pros and cons. Unity, however, I am starting to rule out because I'm wanting to do Game Development as a job in the future. Since the Unreal Engine (which, as I understand, is 99% the same as UDK) and CryEngine 3 are the industry standards, apart from GameBryo etc.. (which I don't have money to buy as I'm 16 haha)
From what I understand the pros of UDK are:
- Simpler (In terms of Scripting)
- Runs on more computers than CE3
- Industry standard, used in MANY top-notch games.
- Kismet is really nice (for level-wide editing)
- Development for iOS is possible, and free (minus the $99 fee to become an "Apple Developer"
- Cross Platform (PC, Mac, iOS) for the UDK. UE3 (as I understand) is PC, Mac, iOS, PS3, Xbox360, and Android?
- $99 to sell games, first $50,000 in sales is royalty-free
The cons are:
- Must exit the editor to recompile the code every time you change the UnrealScript code.
- Worse workflow than CryEngine 3
- Soon to be replaced by Unreal Engine 4
- Crashes often.
- Not many tutorials.
The pros of CE3 is:
- AMAZING Terrain Generator
- True next-gen-top-notch graphics
- Best water ever seen
- Much better workflow than UE3
- Rarely Crashes
The Cons are:
- Must log in to use, if you lose Internet connection while editing, you won't even be able to save.
- Expensive if you want to make commercial games.
- Doesn't run on as many computers
- Only on PC, PS3, and X360
- More complicated scripting?
Is what I said the basis? Are there any pros or cons I have missed? Which do you recommend for a beginner (to game development, not programming in general. I am well versed in Python, know VB.NET, C#, HTML, and CSS) Is Unity a possibility for a game-development company to see potential in you?
EDIT: P.S. I thought I should mention this... I do not plan on making FPS as my main genre. I know it will be hard to do anything else with either UDK or CryEngine, but I don't mind. I need the learning experience. Mainly, can UDK AND CryEngine do this? I KNOW UDK can, but I'm only about 50% sure CryEngine can, I haven't seen many people ask this.

YIELD: Makes 6 servings
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 4-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté onion, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 6 minutes. Add carrots and celery and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add lentils, water, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to moderate and cook, covered, until lentils are tender, about 30 minutes.
While lentils are cooking, heat remaining tablespoon oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown sausage on all sides, about 5 minutes. Cool sausage slightly on a cutting board, then cut into 1/2-inch-thick pieces. Add sausage to soup and stir in vinegar.

Most celebrities throw a bash or take a vacation on their birthdays. But Sherlyn Chopra decided to be different: she celebrated her birthday in 'special' company.
The model-turned-actress was at Kamathipura, Mumbai's oldest red light district.
Sherlyn feels sex workers are considered an 'outcast' by society, which is prejudicial. So she wanted to make them feel special and decided to spend her birthday with them.
Sherlyn opted for a cake with a special message that read 'celebrating womanhood' and then visited the sex workers.

California VA medical facilities cited for health and safety violations
Federal regulators on Thursday cited four Veterans Affairs facilities in Northern California for unsafe and unhealthful working conditions, including clinics in Martinez, Oakland and Fairfield.
Safety hazards were also identified at the VA hospital in Mather.
Problems labeled serious by the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration included blocked emergency exit doors and routes, electrical hazards and exposure to contaminated needles.
Mather hospital was cited for a repeat violation involving improper storage of biological hazardous waste. It received a similar notice in 2007.
All told, inspectors found 25 violations at the four facilities that they said were serious risks which could cause physical harm.
"The safety hazards identified at these four clinics demonstrate a need for a renewed commitment by the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide a safe workplace for the VA employees who care for our nation's wounded and aging soldiers," said David Shiraishi, director of OSHA's Oakland office, in a written statement.
VA leaders could not be reached for comment Thursday afternoon.
OSHA does not have the power to impose financial penalties against another federal agency. But the VA will have 15 business days to correct the problems, request a conference with OSHA supervisors or appeal.
At the Martinez clinic, inspectors found biohazardous waste bags overflowing from garbage barrels and a container so full of contaminated needles that it could not be closed. These problems were immediately corrected, documents state.
The Martinez clinic also had exposed electrical wires in several locations and an exit door blocked by a large garbage bin.
At the Oakland clinic, inspectors found an exit door with a broken handle and a fire door that could not be opened.
Is there a problem at your VA?

Am I the only one upset with the recent trend of PC games?
The trend I am speaking of is the insane requirements to fully play some newer games at their intended level of graphics. Need for Speed: Underground, Splinter Cell: PT, FarCry, most certainly Doom 3 and Half Life 2. I could go on, I'm sure.
This hit me bold in the face when I could barely play Splinter Cell: PT and FarCry at even respectable frame rates, even on lowered graphic settings (I need not even mention the recommendations of Splinter Cell: PT... GeForce FX or Radeon 9800 hardware? What?). Certainly, it is my GF3 hanging me. But this is what makes me particularly upset: There is no way you could convince me that the GF3 has been completely tapped and is outdated. It's simply that developers have moved on and forced it to be outdated. If Mr. "King of the Geeks" himself (John Carmack) claims that Doom 3 is based on technology introduced with the original Geforce and DX7, then it's obvious that there should be no reason why DX8 and DX8 level hardware are even on the fringe of having their potential exposed. What wonders could they create if they were focused on?
It seems quite obvious to me that developers are trying to FORCE the environment of "Upgrade every 6 months" on the average PC gamer. This is one reason why I like consoles more then PC's when it comes to gaming --- I know I won't have to upgrade for at least 3 years. PC hardware always tends to be on the verge of being outdated.
I'm not saying I CAN'T play some of the newer games. It's just the sacrifices that have to be made to the visual quality to gain a respectable frame rate is depressing. What would it take to play these games how the developer intended? Why do you need such an outrageous config to meet that? And it makes me wonder why. Max Payne 2 is a brilliant example of how a game can look good and run like a dream (which is does one my GeForce3), even on "Not so new" hardware. Why can't more games be like that?
I hate to sound like I'm whining, but if this continues, then it's going to be a horrible path for the PC game industry. I wish developers would pick a generation of hardware to exploit and settle on that, instead of immediately migrating to the next API revision when it's released.
I hope that the current generation of video cards prove to be more future proof then the previous video card generations are appearing to be. But then again, who knows when the next "FarCry" will come out, requiring a R500 or NV50 to be able to achieve respectable frame rates at what the developers intend the game to look like.

Re: Am I the only one upset with the recent trend of PC games?
I think its rather legit... the requirements that is...
cpu's of today should be able to handle the games well enough I think but the gpu's do have a little problem...
I wanna see the frame rates that the nv40/r420 combo opens up with todays' cpu's
I can't really stand in the way of innovation... though I have to keep in mind with my first gfx card I was unable to play ANY of the newer games @ the time (like deus ex and so on/so forth) @ anything more than 800x600 levels and crawling round @ around 10-15 fps... so I can't really complain...

Re: Am I the only one upset with the recent trend of PC games?
Snake, I've got basically the same system that you do, save that I have a Radeon 9500->9700 softmod w/OC to Pro, and 1 GB of RAM. Believe it or not, that GB of RAM really helps. The difference between 256 and 512 (in WinXP) is not much larger than the 512/1 GB difference.
Yeah, the GF3 is a bit old. It's not that it's technology is old that's dragging games, it's that newer cards are faster, generally have more onboard RAM, and (with the newest generation) are DX9 parts. Being a DX9 part goes a long way toward speeding things up - DX9 games can run as DX8 or DX7 games, but they still have to do all the stuff that the game requires, and since it was designed for DX9, it suffers on previous generation cards.
I've found that upgrading your video card once a year keeps you up to date without breaking the bank. I try to get vid cards second hand from friends that have the upgrade bug, too - that helps. But right now, if you did some research and put down about $120 for a 9500 NP that was capable of taking a Softmod, your system would be great.
*double checks Snake system specs*
An Athlon XP Mobile? Do you have a laptop? Laptop gaming performance is always behind desktop gaming performance - that may be your problem right there.

Re: Am I the only one upset with the recent trend of PC games?
I'm the complete opposite here. I was tired of seeing games that only needed 500mhz procs and Geforce2's to play when we have 2.0+ghz procs avalible at reasonable prices. These new games make me feel like my purchase of the latest and greatest hardware is justified.
Noone thinks they have to upgrade anymore I guess. They expect the newest games to play on thier aging 7000's and Geforce2's with super high grapics enables and that just isn't the case. Heck. Most people still play games that are 3-5 years old still. I still play UT, Mechwarrior 4, Diablo 2, Everquest, and a slew of older games that don't even require a fraction of the power my rig can generate. I DO realize, however, that if I want to be able to play Doom 3, Farcry, HL2, and such, it wont be on a 1ghz pentium 3, 256 pc 133, and a Radeon 7000 and I WILL want to play these games when they come out. Either **** or get off the pot.

Re: Am I the only one upset with the recent trend of PC games?
I do agree with Vash though. Upgrading you vid card to something newer won't break the bank and will be enough to handle the new games.

I feel your pain snake but I completely agree w/ whats posted below.

One does wounder if developes are following the MS trend and fattening code out so you have to buy better hardware, the crytech engine ran well on a GeForce 3 a few years ago.

Re: Am I the only one upset with the recent trend of PC games?
Sorry NickSpolec but it does sound like your winning a bit. No offense ment. But there has always been new games that required you to updated. Remember Q3 when it first came out? We were stuck on TNT(2)s and V3 at the time on P2 at 300Mhz struggling to get more than 30 fps at max IQ. How about the first time you got Unreal/Tribes as the only way to play with those was with a new V3 card if you wanted decent IQ and/or Speed. Developers have to make a choice early on what type of hardware they want to target and either buy/build and engine to run it off. Its an extremly complicated task to write a really good engine that can handle of the "buzzword" features that people want and yet scale over 3/4 year hardware. Sooner or later they either have to move up their target level of hardware or miss out on features. As a developer you want to sell you game to the biggest amount you can but if your game lacks features it may not sell well. Vise versa if your hardware requirements are too step it also will hurt sales. DX9 games are just now starting to come out and we have had DX9 for over 18 months now. All of these games can run on a lower DX card which is good but I don't see how that is too unreasonable of a target. Would you rather buy that new card and not have 1/2 of its features every get used because developers are "dumming" down their games to run on all the older hardware? Again I do feel your pain that upgrading is not an easy task for all of use (meaning sometimes we just dont have the money to spend on an upgrade). But the computer indrustry is founding on pushing things along and games are the biggest pusher atm....

Re: Am I the only one upset with the recent trend of PC games?
Secondly, you're comparing a game like Max Payne2 - which certainly looks very nice and is well optimized, and comparing it to Far Cry/Doom3/Half Life 2? Are you kidding me? MP2 has nice textures, some blurring effects...and...that's about it. It's a world apart from something like Far Cry which has insane draw distances, very intelligent AI, bump mapping out the wazoo, advanced physics, huge levels, etc. MP2's artwork is excellent, however in terms of advanced effects and truly bringing something to the table we've never seen before like Far Cry, it doesn't measure up. Far Cry is perhaps the most gorgeous game ever created and may also have some of the best AI - you're damn right you're going to need a beefy system to play it with everything maxxed. Why shouldn't you?
Something like the PC version of Enter the Matrix, which chugs to ~15fps on a 3ghz P4 and looks like a 4 year old game, certainly deserves a big ol' rolleyes emoticon - that's pure developer incompetence, no doubt about it. Titles like HL2, Doom3/ Far Cry however, clearly demonstrate where that power is going. Sure, the technique Doom3 uses "works" on a Geforce3 - but don't expect it to look anything like the shots you've seen, and it certainly won't run smoothly.
You seem to want to have your cake and eat it too. You want to play games at their highest settings which allow them to justify the hardware expenditure, but also run just as well on nearly 3-year old hardware with the same settings. Then, you state this is why you prefer console games - wtf? You're going to be in for a rude awakening if you believe Doom3 or FarCry on Xbox will resemble the experience of playing those games on a P4 3ghz with a 9800 (which actually won't be that much of a high-end system by the time D3 arrives). And that's with the Xbox which is the most powerful console system - those games won't be on the PS2/Gamecube at all, as they simply aren't capable of them.
Choice is good if the choices do indeed allow you to sacrifice visual fidelity for performance (sometimes games will have detail settings that actually do very little for performance which I hate). It's one of the good things about PC gaming. I can play a good-looking title on my current hardware, and know that when/if I decide to upgrade, I can go back to that game and max out the details and enjoy the experience all over again - that's what justifies these expensive video cards, it's what they do for your entire software library right out of the box. Would you have no cause for complaint if Far Cry used PS 1.1 only and didn't have the option for 2.0? Instead of massive draw distances, had a fixxed fogging plane? Had retarded AI instead of the cunning tactics they emply? Dumbed-down physics?
Basically, you want to play modern games but don't want to drop the details down to console-level, at the same time noting that you prefer to play games on consoles because you don't have the option of changing any detail levels to suit your personal prefernces regarding performance.

What a morning of delights at Somerset House as Newgen designer's David Koma and Holly Fulton went back to back to present their Spring/Summer 11 collections.
David Koma was up first with a fabulous collection of fifties style skater girl skirts and dresses, ranging from marsh mellow pink and white, to black, gold and yellow. Peplum skirts were the central theme at Koma, as well as dresses with full on flirty ruffles and pleats, maintaining balance and proportion with a tighter, body con style top. Particularly successful was the use of gold on leather. Koma's attention to detail meant these LBD's took on a life of thier own, with the introduction of gold panelling, and black mesh trails, resulting in a seriously sexy collection.
Prints were played with, resulting in a number of geometrical style dresses, teamed with staggering gold or black platforms. Accessories were also fierce, Koma really had us lusting after those chunky gold cuffs and bangles.
All in all, a tough, strong and sexy collection from Koma. The Skater girl skirt will be huge for Spring/Summer 11.

Lights Out
One hundred years on and still the shout
"Everyone put your lights out"
Just for an hour from 10 to 11
And remember all those souls in heaven
One hundred years and still the cry
The perennial unanswered question "why?"
Is there a need in this hour of deed
For any to ignore or not to heed?
One hundred years, millions dead
In battles, wars and streets of dread
Trenches then, now car bombs blast
Tearing at families left aghast
One hundred years – again LIGHTS OUT
Not one city but the country throughout
Is this too much to ask ourselves
For those who died through bayonet and shells?
Lights out and let us honour our dead
Light a single candle in room or shed
Remember those terse words upon us yet
"Lest we Forget – lest we forget!"
August 4th 2014
As tears flow from my reddened eyes
I can see what I have purely missed
As I look up to the dark grey skies
I will always remember our first fist
I sit here and think of your face
The first time I saw your light fluffy cheeks
I always wanted to lay my head on that place
Even when I was buried in my girlfriend's twin peaks.
You never knew my love for you
I waited until it was too late
I often yearned for a way through
Both your heart and your front gate.
But now you've passed away
Slipped through my limp and lifeless fingers
But I still yearn for that fortuitous day
And the smell of your tobacco colour coat still lingers.
As I stare at my homage dedicated to you
I can feel a heart shaped hole called 'Noah'
My body is conflicted, I don't know what to do
It's such a shame that you were found in pieces underneath a lawnmower.
So many holes, and opportunities now
I feel my body grow harder
For you Noah would only allow
One hole to be ventured in farther
As you led there erotically
on the grass that day
with your legs so lovely
I couldn't take my eyes away
So I didn't see
The lawnmower draw near
The blades running free
And beginning to career
Ever closer to your toes
To impoverish your heart
I'm the only one who knows
How a love like this does start
To think I won't see you again
Striding majestically down the Bath Road
And, protecting your shoulders from the rain
Your little tobacco coloured coat
I wish I had been able to say
All this to you when you were alive
I came so close once, that fateful day
When we were standing outside the Beehive
Your hair was golden in the glow
Of the solitary standing streetlamp
Yet still, you couldn't ever know
My feeling for you or my heart would cramp
And now you're dead you selfish thing
You'll never hear me speak these thoughts
You'll never feel me 'flap my wings'
Or ogle me as I cavort
But now you're in the ground
In the darkness and despair
But I have now created a mound
Where I can collect your hair
My heart is soaked in liquid salt
My clothes cling to my body
Although I know that it's no-one fault
Staring at you was my favourite hobby
Now it's time to say goodbye
My lovely little pet
My heart still yearns, my eyes still cry
Although we never met
O to fade! To pass! To sleep! To die!
To live and to listen and not to speak,
Perchance some alternate reality
Is all my grim alienation does seek.
The thunderclap of Tawhiri raging
Silence not a loving fool's complaint,
Nor portend for whom the bell tolls
When the echoes of time grow faint
My heart alas, divided against itself,
Knows not what to say or what to feel,
And with ponderous words recited
I'm forced your resting place to kneel.
Some final absolutions shared alone -
Cold black rain upon my brow and cuff:
Judge not a froward son - I am who
I am, and have been judged enough
We are but the quick and the dead,
And, just or unjust, no keeper of time!
O tell what sin was imputed to you,
What concealed divine law or crime,
And what palsy so dark the lamps
Of Heaven and Earth burn less bright:
Do we in this realm find peace
Or is Death's victory our only respite?
Only in beds of posthumous sleep
Will end my idle living intercessions!
Nay, I no longer exhume the past -
It rebukes all my searching questions.
From umbilical dawn to end of days
I failed you - I added unto your woe:
In life and death there comes a time
When to hold on and when to let go
May your life and times early passed
Live on in the heart that lives in me,
For in all the silent screams below
Is mine own howl in mine own vanity!
As I pen this ode the charcoal sky
Has communicated more than I can tell,
No loss, no sorrow, no love unfeigned
Can unring that breathless tolling bell
July 1991
CHANGE by Ian Munywe
upon his visage boasts sweat,industry an upheld virtue.
firm stature is exhibited,hard labour an accepted custom.
a time for toil yearns,wheat and other victuals for the future.
every stride to strive in burning heat,a quest out of perpetual penury.
feelings of disillusionment eminent,in the brink of a huge fall.
life such a baffling puzzle,everyday hustle inevitably knows no end.
a new dawn presents opportunity,quite in a rush for elevation.
an orison heard audibly,benedictions befalling a mortal.
reverted in such haste such distaste,it were best in prior times.
a new sense of belonging looming,adaptation of wanting predisposition.
amidst all the experience,hardly a thought in modesty lines.
amnesia having set in,pristine of new life in no time.
integrity eroded ferociously,candidacy annihilated in totality.
how mankind does change, indeed swiftly we tend to forget.
RISE by Ian Munywe
two sides of a divide collide inside,audibly voicing their thoughts.
optimism reverberates severely,realism ricochets as quite a formidable term.
resounding trials too eminent,life manifested in a perplexity of events.
too many fish upon this vicinity,evidently not enough room to fry.
by all means he shall triumph,by any means necessary.
hard gravel swept over by dust,feet shuffle upon tough earth.
mallets bash into rigid steel, potrait of his new born remains sole solace.
all efforts to reap this here season,barren yield begets unknown anguish.
a sojourner already on course,in vehement search for a new start.
by all means he shall triumph,by any means necessary.
wary he tranforms worn he conforms,glimpse of the past vision of the future.
feet now trod upon all rugged earth,all adorned in strapped sandals.
steel once too rigid little too hard,antiques and ornaments an eventuality.
henceforth sight of new territory such insight,cite so picturesque a gaze in awe.
by all means he shall triumph,by any means necessary.
The Jaguar has
exquisite spotted
He roars,
jet swims,
No wonder
a prestigious
car is
named for
But he
has no
Same old
I hear
So frigid was her immaculate body
Her last second in screams is all
I can see Love's revenge was my guilt
With you I'd rather let you die with Bound hands
Without you, Marie, like the psychopath's dream
Death is all that I can see; All that could redeem
Did anyone ask
Did anyone recall
The sweet taste of the poison
The swift slash of the knife
he penetration of the lead
The pain of her decaying heart
I can hear it's bellowing cries
But why can't you, Marie,
Hear my paranoid eulogies
Is the coffin too deep?
Was it so hard to solve
Was it so hard to see
That I strangled her so easily
My nails piercing her comely skin
Blood dripping like the pomegranate
I crushed with the shovel
I shattered her shins
The knife to slight her wrists
Didn't you see I did it all
The only witness
Couldn't say Is the coffin too deep?
The pain of her decaying hear
tI can hear it's bellowing cries
But why can't you, Marie,
Hear my paranoid eulogies
Is the coffin too deep?
Marie I cant stay
Earth is to cruel when
your coffin is to deep
Forever in death and in death alone
The pain of her decaying heart
I can hear it's bellowing cries
But why can't you, Marie,
Hear my paranoid eulogies
Is the coffin too deep?
I guess he lost his way when
he left the beaten path,
I guess he was confused when
instinct and logic crashed.
I guess he killed his brain cells
with alcohol and hash,
I guess that his insanity
held him firmly in its grasp.
Asleep, I guess his paranoia
seemed to grow and bloom,
I guess he sensed something
paranormal in the room.
I guess his blackened pupils
must have scanned and searched the gloom,
I guess he thought he heard the
icy rattle of the tomb.
He pretended to have a job, I'm told,
and daily left the house,
then sat all day in the cellar,
I'm told, as quiet as a mouse.
I heard that when she wasn't there,
he sometimes wore her clothes,
I imagine him sashaying
on his man-sized tippy-toes.
His insanity made him mad, i guess,
if that makes any sense,
I know his thoughts were warped though,
by no coincidence.
I see him in a fetal posture,
vulnerably curled.
I see him having lost all hope
and contact with the world.
I see him sitting all alone,
re-reading what he wrote,
a madman's twelve page ranting
in his sad and final note.

Over Manhattan arose quite an alarm
When al-Quaeda on AMERICA dropped its bomb
Causing to the surrounding Vicinity, much harm
While awakening Old Glory from her Usual calm
With Us, having to say, for Our Citizens, the 23rd Psalm
It was, by far, the worse Massacre, since Vietnam
a dory caught off guard in the billow of a wild frontier,
the south paw always an adverse of nature,
tranquil can be the fire,
but the the sparrow will mature,
a dormant trammel becomes earsplitting when broken,
now freedom promised as a perpetual token,
in the splendor of the petal the truth does not appear,
cripple the word and clarity becomes obscure,
deception weaved from inner fear,
not even gone and the cinerarium is in the picture,
oh! look at the view, raw are their souls preaching such an unholy scripture
Soft cool warmth
pungent rotten wine vomit!
I loved you always
that way
smooth glass silk red
cool burning
down the back of my throat
down down down
to the bottom
of my soul
where life
was there I thought
is there, was there, is there still.
I know because I found it
there still
since I lost you
I had to
I wasn't ready to die
I wasn't ready to live
Yet somewhere inbetween
I am...
