I'm compassionate and down-to-earth. I am also an ambitious and self-motivated go-getter. I am a selfless person who always gives more than I take, but I am not a meek doormat. I am a firecracker who speaks my mind and has a strong, eccentric personality. I'm an active, busy girl who enjoys cycling, running, roller derby, and working out. I don't care about material things like what kind of car you drive or how big your home is, but you should be financially stable/secure. I care more about how you think your actions affect other people and the world. My ideal man will be generous, funny, ambitious, and a gentleman. I'm not looking for a man to take care of me nor do I have aspirations to be a lady of leisure. I'm a nice, easy-going woman who wants a meaningful relationship without drama. Finding a partner to share my life and experiences with is something that I feel will only enhance my journey in life. :) If you feel the same, I look forward to hearing from you. Have an awesome day!

FRIDAY, Oct. 22 (HealthDay News) -- You might have seen J.R. Martinez on ABC's All My Children, where he plays an Iraq War vet with severe burns across much of his body who led his fiancée to believe he was dead rather than reveal his injuries.
Martinez, 27, earned the right to play that role the hard way, to say the least.
In 2003, just a month into his first Iraq deployment as a real-life Army soldier, his Humvee hit a land mine. The explosion caused severe burns to 40 percent of Martinez's body.
Throughout his grueling recovery, which included 32 surgeries, Martinez used his experience to lift the spirits of other military vets recovering from injuries and to raise awareness about the difficulties -- physical, social and emotional -- burn survivors face.
Martinez will speak on Saturday at the Phoenix Society for Burn Survivors World Burn Congress in Galveston, Texas. The Phoenix Society works to prevent burn injuries and improve care for burn survivors.
"I know my scars are a powerful tool," Martinez said. "When I walk into a room, people are going to look at me. I use that attention to speak to them and educate them about my world, the burn survivor world."
Martinez was a 19-year-old high school grad in Dalton, Ga. when he enlisted. He went to basic training at Fort Benning and in March 2003, was sent to Iraq.
The April 5 explosion caused the Humvee to burst into flames. Trapped inside, Martinez remembers screaming for someone to let him out. "You can see people running around, but no one is coming to get you," Martinez said. "You feel like you're in a lost place."
His last memory was of being on the ground, held by his sergeant. Then he passed out.
Martinez was flown to Kuwait, then Germany and Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio. The hospital is home to the U.S. Army Institute of Surgical Research Burn Center, w

Or Professional Wednesdays or whatever it ends up being called.
Anyway I like the idea of this show, I'm appreciative that Giant Bomb is starting to crank out new shows. Especially a long one like this one. But I've got one major quibble with this show, it feels pretty redundant when many of these games are going to be Quick Looked or have been already anyway.
So my suggestion is to change it to a show where they only cover new DLC releases. I think there's a market demand for that kind of content and it would help further differentiate the show from others the Giant Bomb crew already has.
Let's face it DLC is likely not going away anytime soon, like or not. Giant Bomb might as well turn this trend to their advantage.
DLC, I feel as a consumer, is something that is a very risky proposition to buy and something I'd really appreciate more critical coverage of. Great games can have some of the worst DLC. So the base game is no indicator of quality.
A lotof DLC seem to be utter garbage and since they don't receive the coverage or marketing the full blown releases get it's hard to truly know until you purchase it. I feel like there usually is a lot of buzz out there on whether a game will be good or not. But DLC? That's a crapshoot. The few times I've personally bought some in the past year have generally ended up being severe cases of Buyer's Remorse. I don't think I'm alone in that experience. .
I.e. I don't need Giant Bomb's opinion on the new SimCity game (which I knew I wouldn't like) nearly as much as I do Sleeping Dogs: Year of the Snake (which looks surprisingly decent).
And DLC is often short, which means Quick Looks of them often probably show much more of them than really needs to be seen or perhaps even should be seen. So perhaps the coverage of DLC would better suited to an aggregated format show anyway.
So in short leave the game coverage to Quick Looks and make this new show a runthrough of new DLC.

Originally written on Larry Brown Sports | Last updated 11/7/12
The Indianapolis Colts have shown tremendous support for head coach Chuck Pagano throughout his battle with cancer, and that continued this week when more than two dozen players and staff shaved their heads. Adam Vinatieri and others went with the cue ball look, and much of the action was captured in this video on Colts.com. "It's all for Chuck," punter Pat McAfee told the Indy Star on Tuesday. "We all don't look good. "I'm not built to have a bald head. I've got a huge sniffer. But we all love our coach so much that we want to show unity and let people know we're all in this together. It's a really cool thing." Do they look good with their shaved heads? Absolutely not. But it's hardly a sacrifice at all compared to what Pagano has been going through. I'm sure any show of support from his team — which also happens to be his extended family — gives Pagano added strength to keep fighting. If NBA superstars can shave their head for breast cancer and Keith Hernandez can lose his mustache for a good cause, a bunch of football players going bald was a no-brainer.

I tried looking all over for it, but it's not listed on any of the
, although they do list "Los Angeles" in addition to things that are already in LA. So, either they changed their mind and didn't film there since 2011 (which also happened with the jungle scenes that were supposed to be filmed in Hawaii but were instead filmed in SoCal), or they forgot to list it/are keeping it secret for some reason.
If I had to take a guess, I would have to say that the Getty Center would be the most likely LA museum they'd film at. It looks like it would fit right in in Trek, and the interior/exterior resembles some of the shots of the San Francisco foot chase with Cumberbatch and Spock.
Alternatively, it could be a new location for Starfleet Academy, which had previously filmed exterior shots at the Oviatt Library in Cal State Northridge, or a part of Starfleet HQ like the interior of the skyscrapers in the trailer.
Here's a flickrstream of shots from the Getty Center:

Author has written 12 stories for Riviera, Disgaea, Angel Beats!/エンジェルビーツ, Record of Agarest War, Sekirei, and Magical Diary.
Hello fellow Fanfiction fans! My name is Joe but you probably won't remember that, so just remember Mystic Cake if you think of me (which you probably won't). I play video games a lot and love to read other peoples' ideas about the universes that each of them contain, and how they expand upon them, which is why i love fanfics so much because they are exactly that :)
I am pretty uptight about proper grammar and spelling, which may lead to me revising and re-revising many parts of things I write; and this attitude will probably be reflected in my reviews to other stories (needless to say sometimes I will still make spelling mistakes and other careless errors in my works, I just hate myself when I do) I will not point out every single little error in the chapters/stories I review, it's a waste of time for everyone and it's the author's job to find and fix them, only major or consistent errors I will point out, and even then if no one else already did (with the exception of short oneshots, since they are much shorter so smaller errors are more evident). Back to me, since I am extremely lazy and hate my own slow typing, coupled with the fact that I can pretty much only be on fanfiction.net on the weekends, my stories will probably take forever to be uploaded and/or updated to so bear with me if you actually read any of them >_>
Currently working on:
-The Unchosen- Record of Agarest War- The collective fates of all the girls if you didn't pick them at the end of each generation- sorry about the LOOOOONG update waits, I'm still tryin to beat the game...
-Demon Disease- Riviera- Patrick, an OC of mine, is nearly killed by Serene and Ein and teaches them about the demon lifestyle, put on indefinite hold until I get into the Riviera spirit again.
Plus a couple of drafts that probably won't be posted for quite some time, if ever if I don't like how they're going
Favorite things to write/read fanfics about this moment- (this is just for starting out, I'll include more later)
-Angel Beats!
Favorite Characters in above things-
-Just about every character from Angel Beats is a fav, but especially Angel/Kanade, Yuri, Yui, Noda, Matsushida, and Shiina; all other characters are just great but not quite as great (with the sole exception of NO ONE, really I like everyone from Angel Beats!)
-Malice from Riviera, yet the general public seems to hate her T_T; also Serene, another generally disliked character; then there's Hector, yes Hector as in the game's main villain that probably everyone else but me hates with a passion, I think he's a bit less cruel than most big bads from most games and thus worthy of writing about in a lighter shade, plus him saying "Ether Burst" is just so awesome (also one of the game's hardest bosses in my opinion, much harder than Seth-Rah), moving off of the hated characters, Ledah is cool and Ein is quite funny being a pervert surrounded by girls ^_^, Lina's good too, Fia and Cierra not so much.
-Generally everyone from Yggdra Union (except I got the GBA version so I don't know much about Mistel and other PSP exclusives), but favorites among the favorites are: Gulcasa, Emilia, Nietziche (no idea how to spell that though), Marietta, and Nessiah; Yggdra and others are good, but not quite on the same level of awesomeness.
-Laharl from Disgaea of course :) oh yeah, and Flonne; Etna not as much; I hated the Defenders of Earth, they're just way too pathetic in so many ways (on a side note, anyone else notice that in the vast majority of games with humans and other races living together, the humans are generally total douchebags towards the other races, or am I all alone on that belief? Not all of them, just the vast majority)
-Moving to Disgaea 2, the only characters I really liked was both of the Snow Melody ninjas and that's pretty much it... ZAM! Need I say any more? Everyone else was kinda... bleh
-Disgaea 3, loved Mao of course; Rasberyl was awesome too, not quite as much though, but close; Almaz and Sapphire were ok; I detested Mr. Champloo (found him to be a bit... obnoxious with the whole food talk and 'boom' thing... not to mention his damn annoying laugh that puts Laharl's damn annoying laugh to shame); Aurum was a bit insane but he's supposed to be that way, so I suppose he was good too (good as in I like his character, he's far from good ethics-wise) All of the teachers were funny, but my favorites were Mr. Redshirt (in case you didn't already notice from Educational Suicide), Kotter-Sensei, Ms. Machiko is ok, and the rest of the teachers don't really stand out.
-In Record of Agarest War... maybe... LUANA!!! Fyuria's cool too, Elaine's kinda lame, even though I picked her anyways... On to 2nd generation favorites... ummm... yeeeeah... anyways on to Generation 3 favorites, Lavinia's cool, if a bit mean... Faina's cute, if a bit pathetic, but endearing nonetheless, and Noah's just plain cool... and hot, but in a game FILLED with hot girls, she's pretty unremarkable. For generation 4 SILVI, SILVI, SILVI! Ryuryu is ok, but pales in comarison with SILVI, and Hilda's just lame, again, purely in comparison. In generation 5, Murmina is soooo awesome, even if I never used her; and Beatrice is cool too, but she also fails in comparison, for the same reason as Noah, Hilda, and most of the other girls. To wrap it all up, here's a mathematical summary of my affections of ALL the girls that you get:
(hot/cool) Silvi > Luana > Reverie > Both Dyshana's (Chaos Dyshana > Normal Dyshana)> Faina > Ellis > Fyuria > Murmina > Sherufanir > Sharona > Lavinia > Plum > Beatrice > Noah > Valeria > Ryuryu > Elaine > Yayoi > Vira-Lorr > Hilda > Qua (meh)... I think that's all of them...
Favorite Pairings in above games-
-Angel and anyone ^_^, also Otonashi and any girl, PLEASE stop with all of the yaoi!
-Ein and pretty much any of the girls (main character or otherwise), yaoi is not good in my book, so NO LxE; Ledah and Malice very good too, but that's quite the rarity, it seems. No love for Hector though; I'm pretty sure being overly power-hungry is a turn-off for most possible pairings for him.
-Yggdra seems to be quite the lonely girl, she doesn't have many pairings in the fanfics, which makes me sad (except for Feral Phoenix's many GulcasaxYggdra fics, which are infinitely better than anything I can ever write) Milanor and Kylier is a given; Rosary and Roswell also very good, but that's tricky to make work for obvious reasons.
-Anything pairing Laharl with anyone is a no-no unless he's much older, that should be a given but I'm sure many people would disagree- keep in mind this is my opinion, and if you're reading this then for some ungodly reason you are actually interested in my opinion. (cue to exit now) Otherwise in Disgaea 1, there's really no pairings that can be done that I like since the main trio are all a bit too young and I detest the Defenders of Earth as mentioned before (Just Gordon, Thursday and Jennifer- Kurtis, I don't hate as much but still not liked)
-From Disgaea 2, Adell and Rozaline is a given; Taro and Rozaline can be cute, but nothing... over the line please, same with Etna and Hanako (Yuri normally ok in my books, but not in this situation; loli and/or shota is bad in my opinion)
-From Disgaea 3, Mao and just about all of the female leads (all 2 of them...), since him and Sapphire can make quite a comical pair and Mao and Raspberyl is largely a given. Almaz and Sapphire also good, I once didn't like this, but after seeing the whole game, it is better than my first impressions told me; yeah, I was wrong, it doesn't happen too often and it's even rarer that I admit it, but yeah, I was wrong. (on another side note, I am sooo curious as to what "that" is, Mao and his dirty little secrets- does anyone even get that reference? Then again, I don't care- I get my own reference and that's all that matters to me! Just kidding :) I care what you people think) I actually think "that" is Aurum's signature from 200 years before, which would explain why he is hiding it, but that's just a guess...
-No particular main-character pairings in Record of Agarest War make me excited, since all of them are pretty cliche, which bores me; but none of them are really BAD either, just average. On the other hand... SilviXLuana... woah... note for later...
Oh the pain of a backlog... Currently I got 20-something ideas for fics, most of which I'll never get done @_@, if someone is generous enough to take some of these off my hands, PM me and I'll put it in your capable hands- just please give me credit for the idea if you actually think my idea is good for some strange reason; >_> and please, please, PLEASE pm me BEFORE you take one of my ideas
I'll list a few of my favorites of my own ideas that I don't plan on writing anytime soon (yeah, I always play favorites; I'd probably play favorites with my own children, thank god I have none!)
Oh, and the titles I come up with are purely ones I thought were fitting, if you don't like it, you can change it- I don't care
Disgaea 1 Ideas Up for Grabs
Archsinner- A story about the beginning of Baal, this one applies to any Disgaea and one is purely imaginative, there is no information about Baal's past other than he fought Overlord Krichevskoy before the 1st disgaea began
A Rainbow of Failures- A story about everyone's most hated heroes, the Prism Rangers; another purely imaginative one, it can talk about their beginnings or their adventures between the Disgaeas, it's up to you!
We, Greater Demons- Hoggmeiser and Maderas stage a rebellion against Laharl, how this ends up is up to the writer's level of sympathy for these chumps :)
The Inner Laharl- Laharl, Etna and Flonne go to the heart bank and venture into Laharl's heart- who knows what sort of deep, dark secrets it will hold?
Disgaea 2
Children of the Curse- a general story about Taro and Hanako, no real plot was established but I figured it could deal with Hanako's ability to cook for a chapter or so.
Trained for Retribution- Chronicles of Yukimaru and Fubuki's training; simple and I almost can't believe no one has written about this yet...
Disgaea 3
Experimentation, Dood!- Prinnys rebel against Mao for their constant abuse as his guinea pigs for his experiments, where this goes is up to the writer but my title suggests they experiment on him for revenge...
Food fight!- Mr. Champloo is challenged to make a meal for Laharl, whose apetite is quite infamous (watch the anime if you don't believe me!) PLEASE someone take this one off my hands, if you read this far you should know I HATE Mr. Champloo and the last thing I ever want to do is write a whole story with his food talk dialogue!
A Union of Powerful Egos- Tyrant Baal threatens all netherworlds with his great power and massive prinny army, and the only hope anyone has of stopping him is if all the overlords in the universe work together against him, IF such a feat is even possible. May overlap with Archsinner if you so desire. I was planning on using all the overlords from all 3 Disgaeas and Makai Kingdom (that's a LOT of overlords!), since there really aren't any in La Pucelle and I don't know much about the other NIS games (Yes, Phantom Brave, that means you!) >.>
This is MY Earth!- Laharl, the demonic ruler of Earth, receives news that a rival overlord is experimanting on HIS human slaves without his permission, that being Mao; a battle between the two overlords commences.
Against all odds...- Ein and co. lose against Seth-Rah, if they survive is up to the author; but someone has to survive or there wouldn't be much of a story then, would there?
Cefiro's Madness- a single Cefiro escapes while Ein and party are busy stopping Ledah in Yggdrasil, where this goes is up to the author (I think I give a bit too much freedom for these ideas, I feel like I've said that before...)
Most Holy Diviner- a no-plot deathmatch between all the diviners of Riviera (all 4 of them that are named...), and if you so desire, the Gran Centurio from Yggdra Union (I was planning on using it)
Heaven Shall Fall- Yggdra Union/Riviera crossover where Yggdra faces off against one or all of the angels from Riviera (I was going to use Ledah, Malice and Hector, but as I said so many times before, it's up to the writer)
Needless to say these aren't ALL of my ideas, they're just the only ones I think are any good and I am willing to give away (there are some others I may be persuaded to part with, though)

South America and back on a 250 Super Sherpa Minimalist Adventure
View Single Post
Sounds good, let's go!
Joined: Mar 2005
Location: Bassett, NE
Oddometer: 2,739
I've been back in Bassett for 10 days now and the lawn's mowed the bills are paid and I still have some gas money. Throttlemeister has graciously agreed to let me borrow his KLR to take over to Arkansas to the SLAP ADVrally. So even though I am bikeless, it looks like I can ease back into a non-riding lifestyle.
I am testing that theory anyway. Headed out for Oklahoma this morning. Shortly after passing through Funk Nebraska and crossing over the Republican river into Kansas I saw a sign for the world's biggest ball of twine. Had to check that out:
They actually have a bench for sitting and pondering the twine. I can think of stranger things to do I suppose, but none come to mind.
Across the street was an old time gas station from the thirties:
I remember stopping in stations like this in rural America back when they had pumps between the pillars before there were interstate freeways.
I passed a rather nice large mural in Western Kansas on the side of an historic brick building and thought about taking a pic. I drove on by and got to the edge of town when Huey Lewis came on the classic rock station and started belting out "The Heart of Rock and Roll is Still Beating." I took it as a sign from the prairie photography goddess and turned around and got a pic:
The temps are in the high 90's today:
It's hard for me to pass up taking a picture of a sign with my last name on it:
Or a water tower for that matter:
These kinds of pictures have absolutely zero interest for anyone but my immediate family. And yet I can't stop posting them.
I checked out the city of Downs Kansas pioneer cemetery. There was a large central memorial dedicated to the two dozen founding families. It was alphabetical. Nobody named Downs between Joe Boomer and Elmer Fink so I guess they named the town for the vast green meadows like Churchill downs.
I'm currently at a McDonalds somewhere in central Kansas a few hundred miles northwest of Throttlemeister's place. The plan is to meet him tommorrow and head over to the SLAP rally this weekend. It seems fitting that some of the first ADVriders I met when I started out towards South America last October will be there.
Should be fun. I will report back what I find.
Adios amigos,
Okie Juan Kenobe

Good location at least
Sunday, October 13, 2013
Good location but everything else about this place is poor. The water that comes out of the tap has been brown for years. The laundry never feels clean and the machines frequently break down. The walls do not block sound. Constant loud traffic and back up beeping noises from outside and any construction in or on the building is heard throughout. You will have to move your vehicle at all kinds of random hours to clean or remove snow from the parking lot. Waited over three months for a basic service request to be completed.

I normally dont ever write reviews but i had to write this one. If you ever want a good pizza come here!!!! Everything is REAL! Ingredients taste freshly cut! This pizza is the BOMB.COM !! It might be a few more dollars then other competitors but trust me its worth it!
Posted by Ed Greenberg on 12/13/2014
Picked up a pizza tonight - 1/2 pepperoni 1/2 mushroom that was ready well before the 20 minutes I was told it would take, and it had obviously been re-heated. Cardboard like and chewy. Too bad - I had been a loyal customer - had always enjoyed the tasty and consistent pizza before, but no more. In order to save time, and money I was given an inferior product, and produced an alienated customer. I can no longer recommend At's a Pizza. Too bad.

I wish I could visit this wonderful family-owned restarant more often. It is a place where you feel at home with friendly atmosphere, excellent food, and great service. I moved away from the neighborhood, but I still go dine there, especially when friends come to visit and they also love the place. Say hello to Joe and his great family.

We just ordered from this place for the 1st time and the food was delicious. My husband loved the sauce in his chicken parm meal. The spinach calzone was amazing. I can't remember ever having a garlic roll that good. We have a new favorite Italian restaurant.

I've been a customer of Ats A Pizza for over 5 years. Pizza is the BEST in Broward..and the Wings are fantastic. Always ready for pickup when promised...hot fresh & ready to go. LOVE my At's A Pizza...
Posted by Jeff & Roberta on 03/26/2014
We have become regulars at At's A Pizza over the last year. Service is grand and the early bird specials are both delicious and modestly priced. Their thin crusted pizza reminds us of some of the better pizza places we used to frequent in NY. Great value and food.

Women comprise the majority of LVN Charge Nurses in the United States. Individuals in this line of work make around $21.20 per hour on average. Earnings generally vary between $17.67 per hour and $26.59. Residence is the biggest factor affecting pay for this group, followed by career duration. Nearly two in five of professionals in this line of work do not receive benefits; however, the larger part report medical coverage and just over two-fifths claim dental coverage as well. The majority of LVN Charge Nurses claim high levels of job satisfaction.

Though some LVN Charge Nurses move into positions like MDS Coordinator (where the average salary is $56K), this progression is not the norm. LVN Charge Nurses go on to become Licensed Vocational Nurses more often than anything even though median pay for the role is $41K. LVN Charge Nurses who move into a Registered Nurse role, another well-traveled path for those in this field, tend to find salaries of $55K.
LVN Charge Nurses who responded to the survey report just a handful of professional skills. Most notably, skills in Wound Care, Geriatrics, Pediatrics, and Long Term Care are correlated to pay that is above average. Skills that seem to negatively impact pay include Long Term Care and Pediatrics. Many workers who know Geriatrics also know Wound Care.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For LVN Charge Nurses, level of experience appears to be a somewhat less important part of the salary calculation — more experience does not correlate to noticeably higher pay. Workers in their first five years can expect to earn $43K, but people who have been around for five to 10 years earn a noticeably bigger sum of $47K. For LVN Charge Nurses, 10 to 20 years of experience on the job amounts to an average salary of $48K. Veterans who have surpassed the 20-year mark may make no more than those who are navigating the mid-career stage.

Apple's been hit with a class action suit [PDF] in the US for using the location service function on its iPhones to track customers without notice to, or consent from, customers when it comes to their whereabouts being tracked, recorded, sent to Apple, and potentially provided to third parties.
A Californian woman, Chen Ma, filed the suit on behalf of Apple's 100-million-plus iPhone users in the US District Court for the Northern District of California.
She accuses the company of violating iPhone users' privacy by not only being able to pinpoint their locations but also to "record the duration that users stay at any given geographical point and periodically transmit" the data to Apple's database.
iPhones come with software called Location Services that uses GPS, cell towers, nearby Wi-Fi networks and other sources to work out the iPhone's location.
When you switch on Location Services some other services that send that location data back to Apple, such as 'Popular Near Me' and Location-Based iAds, are also enabled.
Chen Ma says Apple never told her about the tracking.
From the court filing:
Plaintiff alleges that while using her iPhones, including her current iPhone 5S, she was not given notice that her daily whereabouts would be tracked, recorded, and transmitted to Apple database to be stored for future reference. She was not asked for and thus has not given her consent, approval and permission nor was she even made aware that her detailed daily whereabouts would be tracked, recorded and transmitted to Apple database.
The lawsuit should come as no surprise, considering the saber-rattling about location services that's led up to it.
On 11 July 2014, China's state media TV broadcaster, China Central Television (CCTV), called iPhones a security threat to the state, lambasting the phones' "Frequent Locations" function for allowing users to be tracked and information about them to be revealed.
The broadcast quoted researchers who said that those with access to the data could glean sensitive information such as the country's economic situation or "even state secrets".
In fact, Ma claims in the lawsuit that she had no idea that "her daily whereabouts" were being tracked until she saw the CCTV report.
CCTV's wrath didn't extend to other mobile phones that also track location. Androids, for example, also track where we go, and in the event that a phone is stolen, Android owners can track their devices' location.
But then, other mobile phones aren't as American as Apple. In the wake of revelations about the National Security Agency's (NSA's) extensive surveillance activities, that American-ness has taken on the aroma of guests and yesterday's fish.
In fact, in June 2013, a state-run media campaign warned about the dangers of using foreign tech gear.
A June cover story in China Economic Weekly used the English headline, "He's Watching You," on top of a glowering figure, borrowed from a World War II-era US propaganda poster, wearing a helmet emblazoned with an NSA logo.
The eight US companies singled out in that cover story included Apple.
Ma's suit alleges that Apple doesn't give iPhone users "any meaningful choice" to turn off the feature "without substantially compromising" iPhone functionality.
The suit says that Apple, in response to CCTV's queries, "only stressed that it will not disclose" the data to a third party - a claim she's not swallowing.
She alleges that Apple has, in fact, handed information to third parties, including the US government, which has made more than 1,000 requests for information.
(Here's Apple's first transparency report [PDF], from November 2013.)
In the suit, Ma said that the intentional intrusion is "extremely offensive and objectionable."
She's seeking both compensatory and punitive damages from Apple and has asked the court to grant an injunction prohibiting Apple from collecting "highly sensitive and highly private" data through the location service feature without "meaningful notice" and "explicit consent."

So you're saying there's a chance!
I'm a laid-back person looking for another laid-back person who can make me laugh. I'd rather take a walk than sit on a couch, and I'm looking for someone else who is interested in the being active and trying new things. I'm looking for a friendship first.
Business networking , Dining out , Gardening/Landscaping , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Aerobics, Cycling, Soccer, Swimming, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I love being outside--I like to run/ride at Hefner and sit on the patio for a drink after. I grew up in a small town too, so I like getting outside of the city and visiting small places around Oklahoma. Medicine Park is a one of my favorites!
I like singer-songwriter tunes, red dirt music, anything popular, rock. If it's live, I'll pretty much listen to anything except metal, but I've even been to a show or two like that as well. :)
I like to take a bike ride, go for a run, go see live music. I love being outside, so dinner and drinks on a patio are always fun.
A memoir called Half Broke Horses is the last book I've finished. I'm right in the middle of three or four others now, but I have a short attention span unless the book is really good!

How long will this be in alpha?

Originally posted by delete5230
A video game company isn't there to satisfy you. Ultimately, the ultimate goal of a company is to make revenue. Plain and simple. Making a free to play game with no cash shop? Are you nuts? The whole point of investing money into publishing or developing a game is making a return. That's what an investment is. You don't make money, you go out of business. It's not about greed, it's about business.
This is the basic fundamental about being a game developer. People who want to develop games for fun usually never get anywhere in the industry. You will never create something you want when you work with a company. Half of the time, your ideas will get thrown out. That's how the game industry works. They're there to make money, you're there to follow orders and develop what the company wants to push out.
Asian Hybrid? The game was developed in Korea. This argument is invalid. If you don't like Asian inspired games. Don't play them.
As a former game reviewer, cash shops are a must to keep a game a float. However, pay to win (stat based item) cash shops are what are morally wrong in the gaming industry. However, from what I gather, the cash shop in ArcheAge is purely a cosmetic one.
I personally don't mind buying my way into an Alpha test. The funds help development and localization. The company is there to make money, and if they release a game I actually enjoy having fun in, money is what they'll get.
It's a business. Deal with it.
How long will this be in alpha?
General Discussion « ArcheAge
The Alpha is translation basically, but the game has a voice acted story line (cutscenes included), as well as misc NPC chatter. Literally (I'm an Alpha Tester), there are a bunch of NPC's that will say stuff as you walk past them. The game is very voice oriented. So that requires voice actors as well. I get them selling Alpha, but the money goes towards hiring the actual actors to completely voice over the game. Everything in this game is voiced over other than the quest text.
Top of that, there are random 3D errors, crashes and issues. Those need to be resolved as well. Trees stutter, some trees are completely black, there are texture stretching, etc. The game is literally in a Alpha state.
Founders Packs would have been a great promotion item.
General Discussion « Neverwinter
Of course I did. I dumped 100$ into the Founders Pack on FireFall when it was first made available. I paid the 250-300$ for the Warframe Founders pack just to have my name on a mission, and get all the founder exclusive gear (which I highly regret cause it was a reskinned version of the level 1 Excalibur Armor), paid 150$ for my Guild Wars 2 Collectors Edition (Physical), when they were first announced for Pre-Order. Call me an addict, but when I love a game or have been following it for awhile, I do dump serious money into a game.
Totally get what you mean by November. Ugh. Guild Wars 2 is still good, but I am a big fan of the Dungeon & Dragons styled Dungeons that have traps, ambushes, puzzels. I hate static dungeon based gameplay with just patrolling mobs or maybe an Elite Mob here or there.
Founders Packs would have been a great promotion item.

OP just wants things free to be handed to him. Pay for it like everyone else. I personally dumped the 200$ USD into the Hero of the North pack. I found it to be worth all the content they offered. BIG Dungeon & Dragons fan here.

How do you trigger the first event in the Meta chain in getting him to spawn? I think this is the most difficult part of spawning him mainly because there is really no clear way (upon google searching) in triggering the meta chain. I've cleared over 100 portals now. Dont dynamic & renown heart events around the area and still nothing.
Anyone know exactly how to get the first Meta Event to trigger? :) Thanks.

Guild Wars 2 is a PvP Game. (Thus the name GUILD WARS). Yes, it has a PvE Story Line, but the PvP is what's mostly promoted in Guild Wars and what most of the Guild Wars players actually do in Guild Wars..

News & Features Discussion « General Discussion
Originally posted by rammur65
TERA is NOT a grind fest. I am sorry, but you seem like one of those people who got bored and couldn't struggle through the tutorial/beginner Island.
A Grind is when you have to grind the same mob over and over to gain a level to gain access to your next quest or when you have to grind the same mob for multiple quests with you eventually killing over 200-500 of the same mob before moving on.
TERA, has enough quests that you will never find yourself killing mobs to hit your next quests. There are enough quests (easy ones to do at that) that will make you fly through all your levels. The quests also move very fast so you're never ever finding yourself killing the same mob over and over again. It's usually kill 10-20 of that mob, and move on. So you calling it a "Korean Grind Fest" shows me that you have not either A) Played the game at all and only attacking it cause it was developed by Koreans, or B) Didn't invest more then 2 hours into the game to actually get a feel for it.
I'm currently a paying member with TERA, nearly level 40 and I am enjoying the game thus far. Needless to say, I also dropped 160$ (150$ + Tax) on my Guild Wars 2 Pre-Purchase and I will find myself playing both just as equally. This thread/review is stupid. Seriously, both are great games and everyone is intitled to their opinions. If someone likes Guild Wars 2, they will go play it. If someone likes TERA better, then they will play TERA. This whole TERA vs. Guild Wars 2 crap needs to stop. It's an old, dried out subject that I've seen in the "Recent Posts" box on the front page for the past week or two.
Paid Beta = bad practice
General Discussion « Guild Wars 2
I half agree and half disagree with this post. You paid for the full game, the beta invite was just a perk. They are still inviting people through a pool of 1,000,000 beta sign-ups they did I believe what, a month ago?
It's just more of a "Pre-Purchase now and you can get a garunteed spot in beta" for those who don't really want to chance the sign-up thing.
BUT, paying 60-150$ to help improve and test a game IS indeed illogical. It's better to invite a massive wave of sign-ups to stress test and break the game so it's better improved. Though, I can see the whole paying for it might give insentive to actually test the game since you paid for it an all. Why not make it better?
There are usually two sides of the coin with this thing, thus why I half agree and half disagree.
Apparently Gamestop and GreenManGaming have copies.
General Discussion « Guild Wars 2
Don't pre-purchase/order at Gamestop website. You will not get the pre-order bonus key if you do. You actually HAVE to go into store and pre-purchase/order and make sure the key is printed on the recept. They have been having problems with handing out codes and 80% of the time, Gamestop doesn't even print the codes on the recept. DO NOT order online at gamestop, go into the store and actually make sure they print it out. I had to demand it when I got my copy on Monday. Put 160$ on my copy and the code wasn't there, told them they made a mistake and they had to re-print a new recept for me.
Guildwars 2 , a bit dissapointed DX 9 and not DX11 ??
General Discussion « Guild Wars 2
Need I say that the BETA build is most likely (and I think I've heard this from a source) not the official release or graphics. Like some BETA's I've tested, they released a beta build without high resolution textures, DX10-11 support, and various other things. They only released a stable build for test purposes.
And before someone attacks me with the "Why not add the high graphics so we can test those?!?!one!!1", graphics testing is not required for a beta test seeing as graphic bugs are easy to catch and would only require in-office testing.
The point of a beta is to submit your feedback and report programming errors to the team. Such as weird AI behavior, weapon not acting the way it should and various other things like that.
Any known livestreamers for the future beta?

I will probably be streaming the game as well.

And to someone who stated to not buy the game for it's story.. Most people bought GW1 because of the story.
Anyways, I do highly recommend you buying GW1 to learn the lore of the Guild Wars world. Searching through a wiki can be tedious. Playing through the gamepaign of Guild Wars 1 would give you a much better understanding of the lore then reading it on wiki.
You can buy the entire box set I believe for 20-30$. Another bonus with this is, if you accomplish certain goals and fill your Hall of Monuments in GW1, you can unlock cool titles and items for Guild Wars 2. So again, I HIGHLY recommend you buy and play GW1 only if you're that enthusiastic about Guild Wars 2.

Sorry, I have to quote myself on this one. I believe I have contradicted myself. I just saw that I stated World of Warcraft was a fail. I apologize for that one. Well, in ways it seems a fail to me, but it still has some aspects to the game that make is fairly interesting.

Sadly that is the only aspect that has really caught my eye. I know it's against the rules to talk about Private Severs here on MMORPG.com, but hell; Aion hasn't even been fully launched yet and there are already a few Private Servers out there for it. That alone hinders my respect for the game.
Soon you'll start seeing millions of servers up for Aion. Soon you will see "Aion" this and "Aion" that. It's only a matter of time before Aion sinks in the depths where World of Warcraft currently resides. The only way I can see Aion pulling out of this one is to seriously take action onto the current Private Server developers and to tighten' up their security a little bit. Of course, that is my own selfish thinking. None, the less.
Blizzard lost my respect when they sort of stopped giving a hoot about private servers. I mean, yeah I still wonder how they make an income off their game after so many servers being released.

General Discussion « Aion
I'm starting to believe that Aion - Tower of Eternity is starting to become a cancer that is slowly spreading like World of Warcraft. Do you agree? I mean yeah sure, we all had high hopes for this game and we expected a lot to come from it. As the previous topic that is currently being debated said. "Aion isn't that great" and I for one say it's kind of true. Sure Aion had released a few features that made the game fun, and yes I for one am all about the other aspects of the game they included instead of the constant grinding most MMO's put you through.
But seriously, everywhere I look. I always see some topic flair up about Aion as like World of Warcraft did back in it's time. If you ask me, this game is starting to become a fail like World of Warcraft did. Everyone liked World of Warcraft too much till the internet finally sank its hands in and then it went all down hill from there. I'm starting to see some topics talk negatively about Aion as well. It won't be long now till people start saying "Aion Clone!" or something related to the terms we use for World of Warcraft in this day and age.

I love it ! No dislikes. I brought it because it looked so beautiful in the picture, and when I received it was more lovelier than I could ever have expected.
