The only reason I travel to other sites at times is to find early reviews of games to aid in my decision making process to purchase a game or not. The problem is that other sites often post spoilers and they are just simply not as good as giantbomb. What holds giantbomb back from posting their reviews earlier?
A lot of times they don't get review copies as early as the bigger name guys(IGN, Gamespot, etc) or, sometimes, have to buy the games themselves on release day.

With it being a fairly small operation they don't always get early review copies and with the mound of new releases coming out recently its hard to play through the whole game, write a review, proofread it and get it up early. i sure as hell know i couldnt play every game given to me on a schedual

And Giantbomb reviews are the cream of the crop far better then some other reviews you can tell the giantbomb guys spent some good time with the games.
The staff of GiantBomb is markedly small in comparison to sites like IGN and 1UP. If I recall, only four reviews are employed, each taking a week (if not longer) to complete each game at their leisure. The pressure to complete a game and critique it on time simply isn't present as it was at GameSpot, especially under the leadership of Greg Kasavin.

Because they're waiting for the mail to come to see how big the check is... (runs away).
" I'm a bit surprised that they haven't put up an ME2 review yet because it came out in the US today and they said Brad had been playing it. "
Are you sure that he played the whole game? As i understood it he only spenta few extra hours with it but not playing it to completion, also if this is the case they might not have the save file, tus have to start over from the beginning
since i'm the kind of guys that takes some time to finish a game i can't ask to someone to finish quick and experience all a game :( , and when a want to brought a game in day one i already know what is the game about.
but also i'm gonna quote Shaun McInnins's twitter
I wonder how many websites review MAG (online-only game with deep leveling system) before release tomorrow. So far: two!#notaraceguys
there is also relationships with developers and publishers and whatnot that might dictate when they receive a review copy - for example if Jeff gave a previous Eidos game a bad review, Eidos might not be so enthusiastic to get his opinion on their newest game.
The focus of giantbomb isn't the reviews, it's the podcast and the wiki. I think as far as giantbomb is concerned there is already enough of that stuff in existence, if you want to read rushed early reviews there are plenty of decent places to do so elsewhere on the internet.

They're a group of dudes who play games. They don't always get early copies like IGN or GameSpot. They buy the game when it's released, and then play it until they can review it.

often times i find myself purchasing a game that i have a small interest in because i read a solid review for it. but using giant bomb i plan my game purchases out a a little more strategically - and save myself some coin to boot!
also their reviews are top notch. i don't like i have seen a "world exclusive first review" from them which is usually nothing but glad handing the publishers.

You shouldn't solely get your information from one site, I mean in reality GiantBomb is a small operation that doesn't always post releveant news. There are other good non "corporate" sites like Destructoid and Kotaku which provide relevant reviews. Hell I think I prefer Kotaku for reviews over GiantBomb because they dont give meaningless numbers. They state pros and cons, some details on the game and thats it. You can generally tell from the tone if they liked it or not but based on the pros and cons you can make your own decision.
Also Metacritic is a great way to see if the game is praised universally just because say Brad gave something a 5/5 doesn't not everyone else gave it a 1 or 2 out of 5.

I think also you have to take into account the amount of video content and podcasts these guys are putting out. Quite honestly for a group of 4 -8 guys its staggering. And while I'm sure everyone agrees that the reviews are fantastic most people keep coming back to Giantbomb for the video content, podcasts and the community. At the least for me the reviews have become simply supplemental for the enjoyment of the site, while the quicklooks, features and podcasts have become the main course. And I say if we have to wait a few couple days for a review so we can keep on getting such great content, what is there to bitch about.
Also, with a fairly small staff they sometimes can't get a game finished in time. While a reviewer on another site may be completely assigned to a particular task until it's done, the reviewers on this site may have to do quick looks, news, bombcasts etc in between.
It's also my understanding they don't go after exclusive reviews, unlike IGN which gets them like candy. Then again, GiantBomb (or any site) shouldn't be your only source for information. All sources have specific strengths and weaknesses, GiantBomb is no different.

well in the case of MAG, BIG kudos to them for waiting till the public servers are up and they've gotten sometime in with the community before reviewing the game. How can you tell what the experience is like on a mltiplayer game based solely on a beta?

To cite everyone who's said it before they don't always get the games early, a good chunk of the time its on their own dime, since they are a review site they have a ton of games to get through and little time to do it in, and they actually play the games. I think one of the huge differences is that there's not a check neatly slipped in the case, so they give the honest review which takes an entire playthrough, maybe more to accomplish.

I think if you are in a situation where you're still unsure on whether to get a game on launch day, then obviously you're not too eager to get it. In which case, a day or two late is hardly going to cause you much hassle.
GiantBomb doesn't really post their reviews that late. Usually they are posted a few days before release, or a day or two after release. You have to remember that they are a relatively small group of people and their main concern is playing the game through, maybe playing a retail copy (if it warrants a reason), and getting a good, quality review before post.

Giant Bomb is about quality, not quantity. This is a small, tight run unit of seasoned professionals who work hard to keep us all entertained and informed. They've been doing videos, writing news articles and other stuff we haven't even seen yet. They do all this and have to make time to play games for review. Oh, and then there is that little nagging thing about having an outside life. They get to it and when they do, it is good. There are plenty of other sites with larger staffs that will give you more timely reviews if that is what you're looking for. Me, I can wait for something I will truly value when making game purchases.

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SIM card restrictions surface
The folks at Clove have recently announced they have received their initial inventory for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. And while the announcement could have been left at just that, it appears as if there are some points that potential buyers may want to know upfront. This is in regards to the model number SM-N9005 which ships with a European SIM card. Basically, this model is not going to be good for those who travel the world.

Canada Day brings with it the start of the NHL's yearly "One day sale of the year" on Free Agents. This is also a day of dread for most Islanders fans who haven't had much to cheer about with regards to free agent signings, there's usually head scratchers that become Fan Favorites (Zenon Konopka anyone) and the sort who sign and don't make the big team (Trevor Frischmon), but the Isles tend not to acquire the biggest names in Free Agency, but to the chagrin and dream smashing (or reality as it were) of fans.
The Islanders however were fairly active today losing three players to the Frenzy and adding the same number back to the ranks. So, let us review, shall we?
Matt Carkner:
Simply Put, Carkner is one mean son of a bitch. Islanders fans may remember his absolute beating of Tim Jackman a couple years ago, yeah, he hasn't stopped fighting since. Carkner signed for 3 years and 4.5M dollars, or a salary cap hit of 1.5M....which is to say, not bad. Carkner is a swingman, so you can line him up on the 3rd D pair, or if you skate 7 D he's perfect to line up on a Wing in a Defensive zone draw late in the game. He's not known for his offense, but the Isles have plenty of puck movers. In the battle ready Atlantic Division adding Carkner was essential to the Islanders who had been employing the likes of Trevor Gillies for those division match-ups. Carkner can provide some minutes on the ice when not sitting in Time out and isn't going to average 1:14 or something absurd like that. Also, fans have complained about JT needing protection...in case of violent hit on Tavares, see Carkner, Matt.
Brad Boyes:
Brad Boyes was once a 40 goal scorer, sure it was 5 years ago, but can you name how many former 40 goal scorers the Islanders have signed in the last 3 seasons? If you answered "None Matt, we know our team and we would've RAVED about this 3 seasons ago when the Rebuild was in it's leanest of FA periods, but all we want to do is complain about Micheal Haley," Well, okay, more on that later. Boyes popped 43 goals in 2007 for the Saint Louis Blues on a team that featured a lot of good talent. Boyes backed that up in 2008 with a 33 G campaign and struggled the last couple of years. Last year he bottomed out. He's only 30, but playing with either John Tavares or a good Second Line Center (I'm thinking the battle will be between Ryan Strome who would help tons, or Casey Cizikas, who's also pretty good at feeding the puck) and plenty of PP time you'll see a return to respectability for Boyes. It's a perfect signing, if he's not good, he's replaceable and only cost a million. If he posts a bounce back year, well, then he'll be worth every one of those 100M pennies.
Eric Boulton:
Or shall we say, the New Gillies? Boulton's a tried and true fighter who still can skate a bit and helps solidify the 4th line that Marty Reasoner will again Pivot. No word on his cap hit, but it shouldn't be too much. He can fight, he's not going to back down from anyone and he might allow the Isles to move Matt MArtin up a line....I see no negatives with this signing. I also forgot Boulton was a F and confused him with Francois Bouillion...no matter, he's an enforcer and some Extra Grit.
The Departed (amazing Movie....Go watch it now)
Dylan Reese:
Since his Acquisition for Greg Moore in 2010, Dylan Reese has been a reliable organizational D who stepped up to be a Leader for the Sound Tigers and a somewhat reliable 7 or 8 D when one of the guys on Long island got hurt. Reese was the perfect Org D. He signed a 1 year, two-way deal with the Pittsburgh Penguins. I have no ill-will towards the Harvard Grad who did everything asked of him. He got an opportunity to play with a team he grew up cheering, who in their right mind passes that up (Not Jason Garrison...who's deal is a HUGE risk for the Canucks who have literally 0 margin for Error)?
Micheal Haley:
"Matt, it's absolutely disgusting that the Isles let Haley walk to the Hated Rangers." Well...ummm...no. Haley's departure stings, and it sucks, and I can throw out a huge number of adjectives, but in reality the Rangers can provide Haley with Ice time, the Islanders likely can't. Haley's a cheap way to replace Brandon Prust (who's deal with Montreal is probably the worst of the day), and his first year of the deal is Two-way so if he fits in, he stays, if not he returns to Connecticut. Haley has grit, and heart and all the things Isles fans love about him come from one night of being tired of being brow beaten by the league and taking it out on the aforementioned Penguins. Haley put up solid numbers in the AHL where he's a top 6 threat...in the NHL...well, not so much. he'll be a bastard to play against, but the Islanders replaced him months ago when they signed Mike Halmo, who at the time I likened to a young Sean Avery. Rangrs wanted some toughness, so they went out and got the undersized bulldog in Haley. The Islanders wanted Toughness and signed Matt Carkner...and threw in Eric Boulton for good measure...I see no loss here.
Pierre-Alexandr Parenteau:
For the man who wanted to stay so bad, the money drove him away. Look, PA is a pretty solid player. You want him on your shootout and on the ice when you have the man advantage. For the first time in his career he put up numbers resembling a 1st line player...mostly because he payed with a 1st line C in John Tavares. JT is better than Stastny or Duchene the new Pivots PAP will line up with. "But Matt, he produced 11 points in 17 games without playing on Tavares' Wing! Fire Garth, Fire him NOW!" Okay, okay, calm down. Let's do some fuzzy math for a minute here and say 17 games is JUST over 1/5th of a hockey season, let's do some simple extrapolation and say that 11 points times 5 is 55 points....which is 12 points less than PA's 67 last year. is a potential 12 point drop worth 4M a season for 4 years? "Yeah, but he's great on the power play, those 55 theoretical points are discounting his PP time! We still need to fire Garth, he's worthless." Alright soldier, I said the math was fuzzy, lemme put it to you this way, David Jones is a Winger for PA's new team the Colorado Avalanche. Like PA, Jones was picked in the 9th round of his draft class, and the similarities end there. Jones went to Dartmouth in place of Juniors and was alright to solid in the AHL before making it to the big leagues. Jones also never put up big numbers and only in the last two season has scored pedestrian point totals of 37 and 45 respectfully. PA was a 9th rounder who never really was a huge prospect but sort of put it together in the AHL along the way but struggled every time he got the call to the NHL. PA was given a guaranteed contract by a small market team with a top talent,raw C of the Future and took off notching 120 points in 2 seasons with John Tavares. Now, ready for the punch in the gut? David Jones and PA Parenteau make the EXACT SAME AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR THE NEXT 4 YEARS! "But Matt, you're clearly not seeing the big picture, PA was valuable to us!" Ummm sorry boy wonder, but again, Parenteau rode shotgun to one of the most underrated Centers in the NHL, made tons of mistakes n the neutral zone and was often undisciplined when it came to the refs in some situations. "Oh Man, are you fist F***ing me right now??" Exactly bro.
Look, PA is a good player, but you stick anyone on the Tavares-Moulson line and they're going to have solid numbers by the end of 82 games together. it doesn't matter, John Tavares is the sort of player than makes anyone better. Seriously, I'm sure you could make a 200 lb block of Cheddar cheese in the shape of Zach Parise, put it on that line with remote controlled skates and it would score 20 goals, that's how good Tavares is.
In conclusion of the day, did the Isles become a playoff team; hell no, they still need some help. Did the Islanders fill significant holes with players that are at least viable and at prices that won't suck if we have to waive them; absolutely...it was a pretty solid day.

Tulip bulbs are perhaps the most important flower bulb imported into the United States, but amaryllis bulbs for the florist marketer are more important for many reasons, the most convincing reason is the ease that amaryllis bulbs can be forced after pre-chilling treatment. Amaryllis bulb forcing by florists also produces larger, longer laster flowers more acceptable than flowering tulip bulbs to most florist's customers. Tulip flowers have been developed to bloom more as an outdoor plant than as a florist's tulip pot plant. The many tulip colors of flowering red, pink, orange, blue, purple, yellow, white, and various bi-color combinations and tulip flower bloom variations. Governmental and city municipalities plant huge spring flowering tulip bulbs in bed at parks, walkways, and entrances to buildings. Planting of tulip bulbs is generally done in the fall and winter, but in the Southern United States areas, late spring tulip bulb planting will be satisfactory. Tulip bulbs are pre-chilled in the Netherlands by the Dutch tulip bulb growers to keep the tulip bulbs dormant for shipment to the United States in the fall.

ANDERSON, S.C. -- An Anderson city councilman has resigned after he admitted lying to federal agents investigating a cocaine case.
Chuck Anderson pleaded guilty Monday. Court records indicate Anderson agreed to the plea deal last month.
Court records show the attorney was representing a man last year who is facing charges in a cocaine case. Federal agents asked Anderson where two vehicles were that they thought Lonnie Maddox had purchased with drug money.
Prosecutors say Anderson lied to agents about the GMC Denali and a classic Chevrolet Chevelle belonging to Maddox at least five times. Court documents say at one point, Anderson had the vehicles.
One of the vehicles was found at the home of one of Anderson's law partners.
Anderson pleading guilty Monday to making false statements before U.S. District Judge Michelle Childs on Monday
Anderson will be sentenced later. He faces up to a $250,000 fine and up to five years in prison.
Prosecutors said Anderson was questioned in February and March of last year by agents from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and to federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
Anderson had served on the city council since July 2012. He previously served for eight years on the Anderson County School District 5 Board of Trustees.
He told other members of city council on Sunday that he was resigning.
Voters are expected to pick someone to fill the rest of his term in a special election in April.

Join Justin Seeley as he reveals how designers can create vibrant web graphics, wireframes, and complete web site mockups in Adobe Photoshop. The course covers creating a custom web workspace for maximum efficiency; drawing, coloring, and optimizing web graphics; creating vector shapes and text that scale seamlessly; mastering transparency; building navigation bars and buttons; and speeding up these tasks with the Photoshop automation tools.
Before we get started mocking anything up, we need to first make sure that Photoshop is set up properly for our web design workflow. This of course will be different for you because everyone has their own way of working, but for me there are some things that I need quick access to during my web design process that Photoshop simply doesn't give me right off the bat. The first thing I'm going to do is open up the Type panels. I use a lot of text in my designs and I'm constantly tweaking it, so I need access to both the Character and Paragraph panels in order to make those changes quickly. In order to open those up, we'll go up to the Window menu, and I am simply going to come down and choose Character.
By choosing Character, it automatically opens up both the Character and Paragraph panels. I will collapse those by clicking this arrow so that they stay right here in my dock. Next, I want to bring up the Character and Paragraph Styles panel. These are new to Photoshop CS6, but they have already become a necessity for my workflow. Basically these panels allow you to create styles the same way you do in InDesign and then apply those styles to various text objects throughout your design. It's a really handy feature and it's really become one of my favorites.
Let's go ahead and open that up now. I'll go back up to the Window menu and I'll go down and I'll choose Character Styles. Again, choosing Character Styles automatically opens up Paragraph Styles as well, so now I have access to both of them. I will collapse those and they remain in my dock. Next up, I'm going to open the Web Color Spectrum in the Swatches panel. I do this for two reasons: one, it gives me a wide variety of web-safe colors to choose from, and two, when I hover over the swatches, it doesn't give me a generic name like Lime Green or Plum Purple.
It actually gives me the hex code value of the swatch that I'm hovering over, which for those of us who write CSS, is a very valuable tool. Let's go ahead and open those up now. I will go over to the Swatches panel. Inside the Swatches I am going to choose the Swatches panel dropdown menu. I will go down to the bottom and look for Web Spectrum. Once I find Web Spectrum, I am going to choose either Append or OK. Hitting Append means you are adding the web spectrum to the already existing colors inside of your Swatches panel.
If you hit OK, it will replace the current swatches there with the ones you are choosing. In this case I want to replace all of them so I'll hit OK. Once I have hit OK, all of the web spectrum colors show up here inside of the Swatches panel, and if I expand this down, you can see just how extensive this library is. Anytime I put my eyedropper over a color-- like, let's say, this lime-green color-- notice it doesn't say lime green. The pop-up actually says the Hex Code value that's associated with that swatch. Anytime I need this to hand out to a developer or to write in CSS, I just simply come over, hover over the color, and it will give me automatically the hex code value.
Now let's go ahead and shrink this back up because I don't need this to be displayed quite as large. And so the final thing that I want to make sure that I have are the layers and Paths panel prominently displayed somewhere in my workspace. If you're lucky enough to have two monitors, I would suggest throwing these panels over to your second screen so they get the full real estate that they deserve; otherwise you can use the built -in sizing handles to ensure that they are big enough for you to easily navigate and read. When you are working with web site and application mockups, you are going to deal with a ton of layers and a lot of paths as well.
You'll want easy access to these panels at all times. So what I am going to do here is I am going to come right here where it says Adjustments and Styles and I'm simply going to double-click on the word Adjustments. When I do that, the Layers panel automatically shifts up to give me more room. I can also adjust the height of this panel if I need to see more swatches or if I want to see less swatches, I will just drag it back up. I want to make sure that this is large and prominent so I can easily get to multiple layers at a time or multiple paths at a time. I'm also going to take the Paths panel and click and drag it to the left so that it's right next to layers.
I want to be able to easily switch between the two, especially when I am creating vector shapes. Now that I have my workspace all set up, I'm going to save this workspace by going up to the workspace jump menu. That's located right here. When I click on that, you'll notice that there are several workspaces already available to me. However, none of them are web-design-specific. So in this case, I'm going to create a new workspace and I am just going to call it Web Design. Underneath, in the Capture section, it will tell me here that panel locations will be saved in this workspace, but I can also include keyboard shortcuts and menus as well.
If I had customized either one of these, I would check the boxes. I haven't customized either one of those though, so I will go ahead and just hit Save. Once I have saved it, you will notice that Web Design now shows up inside of the jump menu up here at the top, so anytime that I was in a different workspace, like let's say I was doing something for Photography and I jumped into the photography workspace, I could easily get back to the Web Design workspace by just clicking and choosing Web Design. This is just my personal setup. Yours will inevitably be different, and that's okay.
When working in software applications like this, there is no right or wrong way; there's only your way. Right now you might not know what your way is, and that's okay. As we continue to go through this course, you'll find things out about yourself and about your workflow that will help you determine exactly what you're going to need at any given time, and hopefully now you know how to implement those changes going forward.

School places crisis in Cambridgeshire 'will lead to bigger class sizes and parents denied all school choices'
Posted: August 28, 2014|
Gareth McPherson
Parents will miss out on all their school choices as class sizes bloat and lessons move into huts because of a lack of money to tackle the places crisis, it has been warned.
County council officials hoped they would be given £36 million to meet increasing demand for places for 2015-17, which is being driven by higher birth rates and more families moving into the area. But they say they have been offered just £7.4 million.
Former Cambridge teacher Geoff Fewtrell, of the NASUWT union, said the lack of funding is being exacerbated by people being attracted to the area by jobs and new housing developments. He said: "I think we are in a worse position than other areas because we have always been badly funded and there has been no recognition from Central Government of the shifts in demographics in the area and the extra number of children needing an education.
He added: "It is going to mean increased class sizes, more workload for teachers, dissatisfaction from parents not getting their first, second, third or even fourth choice of school and teaching in unacceptable old huts."
Cambridgeshire County Council says it will cost them an extra £7.9 million in debt charges alone over five years to replace the funding through borrowing. Along with developers' contributions, Central Government cash is their main source of funding to make sure every child in the local authority area whose parents want them to have a state education gets one.
A council spokesman said the lack of capital funding, on top of historically low levels of basic funding, has "significant implications".
He added: "Alternatives, such as provision of mobiles in place of permanent accommodation, provision of free transport to other, more distant schools whilst those children remain of statutory school age and re-phasing of projects would significantly impact on the quality of education provision across the county."
Last year, the council said 10,000 extra school places are needed over five years. A Department for Education spokeswoman said they are giving councils £5 billion for new school places over this Parliament as well as a further £2.35 billion by September 2017.

Product Details
These 2014 Silver Eagles are graded MS-69 by NGC and feature the Early Releases label indicating that the coin was certified within the first 30 days of its release from the mint.
Silver American Eagles from the San Francisco Mint are popular because the mint stopped production on them in 1998 and didn't resume until 2011. This NGC certified coin has even more collectible appeal on top of its lower production numbers.
Coin Highlights:
- NGC encapsulation protects and guarantees the near perfect MS-69 condition of the coin.
- The Early Releases label guarantees this coin was received by NGC within the first 30 days of the coin's release.
- Struck at San Francisco designation.
- Obverse: Adolph A. Weinman's design showing Lady Liberty draped in an American Flag, walking gracefully as the sun rises over a ridge.
- Reverse: A heraldic eagle is shown below 13 small stars, representing the original colonies.
- Sovereign coin backed by the U.S. government.
One of the most popular designs in American coinage, the Silver Eagle combines beauty with Silver bullion appeal. Add the 2014 1 oz Silver Eagle to your cart today.

Phillies' Utley breaks right hand
Phillies All-Star second baseman Chase Utley broke his right hand when he was hit by a pitch during Thursday's 7-6 loss to the Washington Nationals.
Utley was hit in the fifth inning by Washington's John Lannan, who was making his major league debut.
Utley, batting .336 with 17 homers and 82 RBI, said he doesn't think he'll be sidelined for a month, the initial prognosis. "I think it will be sooner than that," he said.
Carpenter visits Cardinals clubhouse
Chris Carpenter returned to the St. Louis Cardinals clubhouse Thursday to visit with his teammates two days after undergoing Tommy John surgery.
Team physician Dr. George Paletta repaired the ulnar collateral ligament in Carpenter's right elbow Tuesday.
"Everything went good," Carpenter said. "The good thing is that it's done and we got it early. Hopefully, I can be back and play next year."
The operation usually requires 10 to 12 months of rehabilitation.
Pedro Lopez's cheekbone was broken when he was hit on the left side of the face by a pitch Wednesday, but the Cincinnati Reds shortstop probably won't need surgery. Cincinnati put Lopez on the 15-day disabled list and activated right-hander Juan Castro. ... Curt Schilling pitched five scoreless innings Thursday and struck out eight in his second rehab start for Triple-A Pawtucket. He'll make at least one more minor league start before returning to the Boston Red Sox. ... Rookie reliever Joe Smith was optioned to Triple-A New Orleans by the New York Mets. ... The Minnesota Twins called up third baseman Brian Buscher from Triple-A Rochester. ... The Kansas City Royals bought the contract of right-handed reliever Jason Shiell from Triple-A Omaha.

Bridging the divide - 3D Scanning/Modelling query
I recently saw this 3D camera/scanner on a tech programme which allows you to scan in 3D images of objects into a computer.
I have no real experience with 3D modeling (beyond having a brief play with a few programs), however this camera does seem to make it possible (and affordable) to scan a traditional sculpture into a 3D modeling program, something I'd thought was previously only available in the realms of high budget hollywood films.
I wonder if anyone has used this product or something similar before, and if so how well it works? Also are the file formats it uses (OBJ, STL, PLY) supported by programs such as Blender, Zbrush etc? I've been informed Maya does not support them but they can be imported through a plugin.
I assume, if you were to posses the appropriate skills, you could then use the scanned 3D model to create an animation? I have some experience with stop motion animation, however having an affordable way of getting my sculptures moving digitally has piqued my interest.
Thanks for any thoughts you might have.

I can't really vouch for it on SPrint because I am on the Verizon variant. This phone has caused me to not look at any other device. To me, that means something as I am rarely satisfied. That said, it has some quirks like all devices. The hardware is average, but the software is top notch, and cutting edge. ICS is already 6 months old. I cannot get excited about new devices just now shipping with it. With the Nexus, you will see the next version of Android as well. Just keep in mind that because it is CDMA, it will not happen as fast as GSM.

Re: Geforce 8200 users, I need your help with finding usb hanging issue
@laryllan thank you for response. Which CPU do you use? Athlon/Phenom? How many cores do you have on your CPU?
The usb ohci hanging bug is not Nvidia GPU drive related. I'm sure. It is happening even if Nvidia GPU driver is not installed at all. This bug is in:
-usb ohci_hcd driver which comes with kernel sources or
-irq handling driver/apic which comes with kernel sources or
-mainboard bios or
-kernel configuration.
I'm also curious if it is multicore cpu problem.
That is why I'm asking other users with other mainboards, linux distros, kernel versions.
I tried acpi=force irqpoll. System works terrible slow.
Try noapic or acpi=noirq - they do not slowdown system so much.
Let me know if this fixed problem for you. It works for me.
I still try to learn what is wrong because I would like to use my Linux without noapic or acpi=noirq workarounds.
If you would like to learn more about problem I encounter here is bugzilla:
I'm curious if you have exactly the same problems.
WinXP SP3 works perfect with USB 1.1 so this must be bios or Linux software bug.

I would like to thank The Oldham Era for shedding some light on the school district's inequalities with respect to gender in its athletic programs.
I also appreciate your efforts to present a balanced story by giving viewpoints from both sides of the issue. However, by closing the article with six paragraphs on how nice the recent use of the facility has been for the girls without a single mention of how the facility has been so much nicer for the boys, the pendulum swung back too far and the article seemed to lose its balance.

We were able to grab an autumn special rate which made this hotel a great choice. While not terribly convenient for downtown sites, the hotel is in a great part of Austin and is convenient to expressways. The hotel itself is well kept and clean. Staff is cordial and attentive. The room is quite a good size with a nice sectional type couch, refrigerator, workspace. The partial partition between the living area and bed creates a nice visual divider. Breakfast was fair but not much variety. Heavy on carbs, weak on protein options. The pool area was definitely a disappointment and the pool itself was not clean.
All in all, a good place to stay Atari decent price.

According to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter, free agent linebacker Brandon Johnson is scheduled to visit the Pittsburgh Steelers today. Johnson joined the Bengals in 2008 after spending his first 2 years in the league with the Arizona Cardinals. He played in every regular season and post season Bengals game since, the longest active streak on the team. Along with generating over 80 tackles during his first season with the team, Johnson also had 3.5 sacks, 3 interceptions,1 forced fumble, and 14 passes defensed throughout his career wit the Bengals. Depsite the team's effors to indirectly reduce Johnson's playing time on defense since 2008; by drafting linebackers and signing free agents, Johnson has reshaped his overall importance to the team through playing on special teams. He was team captain of that unit in 2010. Cincinnati made little effort to bring back Johnson this year after a series of single year deals.

BEIRUT: Two Dutch diplomats were briefly kidnapped by armed men and taken to Syria, the Netherlands said Thursday, in Lebanon's second case of abducted Westerners in recent months.
Holland's embassy in Beirut confirmed that the pair had been snatched on May 24 in broad daylight before being driven "against their will" into Syria along a public road north of Baalbek, in the Bekaa Valley.
"[They were taken] by local people, who never confirmed their identity and were taken to Syrian authorities in Syria," Dutch deputy head of mission Hans Peter van der Woude told The Daily Star.
"The Syrian authorities noticed that they were taken across the border in an informal way," before ordering the pair's release, he said.
Van der Woude added, however, that the embassy did not believe the incident constituted a kidnapping.
A well-placed security source identified one of the diplomats as Damascus-based defense attaché Commander Paul Flos, without giving details on the second Dutch national. Flos is an army, naval and air force attaché and is accredited at Dutch embassies in Lebanon, Syria and Iran. He has since returned to his mission in Syria.
Van der Woude said the diplomats had been "just visiting" the area where they were accosted and declined to confirm their identities, in line with embassy policy.
Al-Markazia news agency reported that an unlicensed four-wheel drive vehicle had transported the diplomats into Syria across an unofficial border crossing. Their release was ordered after Syrian authorities identified the pair's nationality, it added.
Western diplomats told The Daily Star Thursday that they were not planning on upgrading security arrangements for embassy staff following the disclosure of the Dutch abduction.
"We still consider Lebanon to be a country that we are advising against travel to as it is dangerous. Our [security] measures [for embassy staff] are extremely stringent," a diplomat said.
A British Embassy spokesperson said the United Kingdom was unlikely to alter its travel advice on Lebanon following the kidnapping, although the Foreign Office did enhance its warning to citizens in the wake of the abduction earlier this year of seven Estonian cyclists, who are still missing.
"We haven't changed our security advice in relation to recent events. We did update our travel advice when the Estonians were kidnapped and continue to advise all British citizens to stay on the main roads in the Bekaa," the spokesperson said.
The Estonians, who had been on a cycle tour of Lebanon and Syria, were taken by armed men on the outskirts of Zahle on Mar. 23. The men have yet to be released despite successive pleas from diplomatic missions in Lebanon and world governments. Two videos of the tourists have been uploaded on YouTube, the second of which featured one individual warning that the men were in "great danger."
More than 10 people have so far been arrested by security forces in connection to the abduction.
France said Thursday it was committed to helping Lebanese authorities free the seven men.
"France, as the country that knows Lebanon better than any other country in Europe, has assisted and is assisting Estonia with all the means we have in the Lebanon kidnapping case," Minister Laurent Wauquiez told reporters during a visit to Tallinn. "It might take time until it ends, but we [will] do our best to help to free Estonians.
"We work widely on [the] Estonian kidnapping case, not only in Lebanon but also with Syria where France has good contacts," he added.
Security forces admit that it is unclear as to whether the hostages are being held in Lebanon or Syria, given the porous and unmarked border separating the two countries.
