Ales Hemsky won't be testing the NHL's free-agent waters. The Edmonton Oilers signed the forward to a two-year extension worth $10 million, on Friday night, keeping him in the fold through 2013-14. With Hemsky set to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, he was considered a prime candidate to be moved ahead of Monday's trade deadline. Instead, he'll remain with the only NHL organization he's ever played for. ''There were a lot of discussions with other teams; we had to have that going up to the trade deadline,'' said Oilers GM Steve Tambellini. ''You have to be prepared for both (possibilities). ... I think Ales, speaking to him, is happy and I know our players will be very happy. ''Maybe that's the most important thing.'' Tambellini and Hemsky sat down for a discussion after Edmonton's 2-0 victory Thursday night against Philadelphia and a deal was reached Friday. The 28-year-old Czech was drafted 13th overall by Edmonton in 2001 and has 421 points (119 goals) in 536 NH...

Re: Geforce 8200 users, I need your help with finding usb hanging issue
Hm. I have a M3N78-VM with nvidia 8200 too. I used it with Ubuntu 9.04 (2.6.28 kernel i think), 9.10 (2.6.31) and now with Debian Squeeze (2.6.32).
The 2.6.28/31 Ubuntu 9.04/9.10 kernel had a problem - on resuming i had to plug out and back in the USB keyboard i have. Other than that resuming worked fine.
With Debian i did not have this issue, i had another weirdness: I could suspend once per session - a second suspend suspended the comp, but instantly wake it up - but this behaviour gone away after installing the 195.36.24 drivers or some xorg/power management upgrades that came at the same time - so i am not sure about this.
Now it works just peechy (now i use the 256.25 drivers) - suspend/resume, VDPAU also works perfectly well. I have a USB keyboard+mouse and a USB webcam connected - never experienced problems except those i mentioned, but those are gone.
I have Athlon 3200+ single core processor, 2x1GB RAM, 3 HDDs +DVD/RW (1xIDE HDD, IDE DVD/RW, 2x SATA HDDs).
So, it very well be a distribution-specific bug (distros have different patches to their kernels) or caused by a certain USB device under specific conditions.
BTW i use 32-bit Debian.

2001 Ford E-150 Q&A
2001 Ford E-150 Question: why does the engine run rough on idle and smoth when the air conditioner is on?
it is always like that. sometimes it will stall siting at a red light when the air cond. is not on. firstname.lastname@example.com - madisontv
Answer 1
Often times when the A/C is turned on, the engine computer will boost the idle speed, because the A/C pump is about a 20 hp load. When the A/C is off, then the idle speed will not boosted. Have the throttle body inspected and cleaned if need, and have the base idle re-set. Do you ever get any check engine light on? If so, have those codes traced, that will also be a big help. - dandd

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau always preaches to his defense that they must stop the run, tackle the catch and not give up the big play in order to be successful. Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, his unit failed in all three of those areas and as a result the team now heads into their bye week at 0-4.
Not only did the defense allow five explosive plays of 20 or more yards during the Sunday loss, three of them went for 51 yards or more of which two went for touchdowns.
Since returning to Pittsburgh in 2004, a LeBeau led defense has never allowed three plays of 51 yards or more in one game. In fact, the last time a Steelers defense has allowed such a feat was in 1999 when they gave up four plays of 54 or more yards in the 31-24 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
The Steelers tackling Sunday was atrocious and it started on the Vikings second offensive possession when cornerback Cortez Allen took a bad angle and failed to bring down wide receiver Greg Jennings following a seven-yard catch. 63 yards later Jennings was in the end zone for the game's first touchdown.
The bad tackling didn't stop there as there were several missed tackles on the 60-yard touchdown run by Vikings running back Adrian Peterson with 12:52 left to go in the second half. On that play, Vince Williams, Lawrence Timmons, Ike Taylor and LaMarr Woodley all whiffed with their tackle attempts.
In total, the Steelers defense allowed 393 yards of offense Sunday and 226 yards of those yards came courtesy of five explosive plays. To make matters worse, the defense also allowed 154 yards after the 16 catches were made in the game.
During training camp, the Steelers coaching staff allowed a lot of live hitting to take place in an effort to sort out a roster full of young players. Sunday against the Vikings there was no evidence that extra work even took place.
While the Steelers offense was far from perfect Sunday, it was the defense that let the team down the most in the loss. Now that the bye week is here, LeBeau better review his three main principles with his unit and it wouldn't be a bad a idea to mix in a few tackling drills during practice in addition.
I feel this article is right on the money. Alot of steelers fans have given our offense heat for not being better and I do no means say they had a great game. But when a steelers offense make 27 points and only turn it over once (not counting the last as there would have been too little time for vikings) any normal steelers defense would have given us the win.
I said this before it became obvious to everyone after the VIkes game. The defense was also to blame for the chicago loss. I said this last week – the main culprits for the chicago loss were Big Ben, Adams, Foster, and the D. The D gave up 17 points on the first 3 Chicago drives(and yes, I admit the middle drive was a short one thanks to Big Ben's turnover). Then chicago went into safe mode and lacked any urgency. Once Steelers brought the score close, the D once again couldnt do anything. The worst thing aboutthe D is the lack of ability to get a turnvoer. CUtler had 3 INTs today. Our D couldnt sack him much, and c0ouldnt intercept him at all.
I bashed Haley when he deserved it. The coaches from Tom;lin to Haley still deserve to be bashed for still playing Mike Adams at LT. Yet even I will concede Haley' splayvcalling has been much better the last two games. The offense inspite of Adams played well enough to win today. In the past, our D would get a turnover or two in Arians time and gift our offense excellent field position. Our offense had mediocre field position for most of the game. Why? Because our D cant do much in terms of turnovers. It would be more tolerable for the D to give up points if they can get some turnovers. And why dont they gtet turnovers? Not enough talent. heyward and Keisel seem to be the only people on D who can tip passes. Ike finally had an edxcellent INT , butit was easily batted out of his hands. Richard Sherman makes that INT.
This is why turnovers are important other than short fields for your offense – the other QB will think twice before hitting his next pass in a small window? if he thinks the worst that can happen is a mere incompletion instead of a turnover, guess what, he is going to kill your defense in clutch moments instead of choking.,
The coach on the spot is Lebeau and Butler. Ray Horton continues ot excel on other teams. What is Butler contributing as heir apparent? Colbert is on the spot for his drafting of just average D talent. Woodley is not a probowler anymore. He is an almost player. I am glad he finally generated a fumble(not recoveredd), buthe has to make more of an impact and not get blocked by a single TE.
The defense plays without heart.
The offense plays with out points. The offense was ineffective until the other team went into the prevent. They only do well enough to get close in garbage time. Ben needs to toss the ball faster than 7 seconds into the play. The offensive line needs to get better on their blocking assignments. The defense now has the mark of Tomlin as does the offense and like him they are in over their respective heads.
On a positive note the last time the steelers were this bad they hit some really good drafts in the near future and went on to win 4 super bowls. They will likely need to get some new coaches as well.
Rest in Peace L.C. Greenwood
You should count the last. It would have been a touchdown for a tie!
I find it hard to blame the defense in a game that the offense gifted 23 points to the opponent. You're also blaming the defense for points that certainly shouldn't be blamed on the defense. The offense turned the ball over inside their own 20 (at their own 17 to be specific.) I'm not saying this defense has been playing well. It hasn't been for 3 years now, but to blame that loss on the D is really not fair.
The sign of a bad football team is finding a different way to lose every week. Prior to this week, there really hadn't been many big plays given up by the defense. Labeau's defensive strategy is to keep everything in front of you and make the tackle. Prior to today, it has been pretty good. Up until today, we the defense wasn't the cause of the loss. That changed. Against the Titans, we couldn't score. Against the Bengals, our OL was horrid. Against the Bears, we turned it over continuously. Against the Vikings, we give up big plays. It will be something different every week. Sign of a bad team. And BTW – still no TO's. That has to be some sort of record. But please Mike, keep allowing us to sit back 7 yards off the ball. It's working great – NOT. You can't get TO's by GIVING teams 5 yards on every throw.
Oh, and I know we have no choice but to let Vince Williams learn OJT, but he is killing this team with over pursuit and getting caught in the wash. Several plays a game he is getting caught in the flow and RB's are cutting back with wide open lanes. Never thought I would miss Foote so much.
This whole team plays without heart.
Going into this Vikings game the Defense was the least of my worries as the only player I was concerned with was Adrian Peterson. But I failed to remember that we have a tendency to let average QBs look like a Joe Montana. Matt Cassell was terrible last year in KC to the point he was booed relentlessly! We seem to find ways to lose every week and the defense let us down this week with all the explosive plays. If we could get a Special Teams punt return for a TD or a TO to help out that would be great but NO that can't seem to happen for us. BTW, I have forgotten what something like that feels like it seems so long ago. The bye week came at a good time as we could use it about now!
My point is that the defense allowed 34 points even though they only had 1 bad field position because turnovers. Far from good enough for a steelers defense.
Yes, it is far from optimal that the offense turned the ball over in the endzone but 27 point from a steelers offense should be enough to grab a win.
I tend to agree with Terry. He didn't lay all the blame on the defense, but the fact is that they couldn't make a stop after the O made mistakes, and that's always been the mark of a good defense. I'll blame the defense for the last two losses. Look at yesterday … Steelers come out and score right away in the 3rd quarter, and what does the D do? Let them march right down the field and score in something like 5 plays. That's awful. Only D in the NFL without a turnover this year. That's almost incomprehensible.
Is it just me or does anyone else notice our corners play 10 yards off opposing receivers? Seems like the game plan for the opposing O coordinators is to just throw the short pass and take what we give them. Which usually is 6-7 yards on first down. Or hope like yesterday we miss the tackle and the play goes for even more yards. Seriously at what point do you as a D coordinator tell your corners to press more? I think that is one of the biggest problems with our D, even an average QB like Cassel can throw that pass.
As far as Ben goes maybe someone (Dave, Matthew) could pull up some stats since the Superbowl against Green Bay and see what Ben has done in the 4th quarter with the ball and a chance to win the game. In his early years he used to win us those games. Now he seems to cough it up at the end. Also in his early years when he saw he could run for the first down if his receivers were covered he would do it and keep the chains moving. Now he never runs. I'm not saying run and get killed I'm just saying if the first down is there and your receivers are covered take it and move the chains.
I have wondered on both of those things too. I was going to suggest a breakdown of turnovers by quarter
I looked it up yesterday where if we scored 27 points in a game we would have won 12 games and tied 1 last year.
The FO has put us in this situation by not drafting well and not getting decent veteran FA's for depth. I know the cap situation but the FO must make harder decisions to create better depth. In the long run this maybe the best thing that happens to us. Some may become mad at me but if we have the worst record I want Bridewater. I love Ben but when you put the ball in his hands all game good things will happen but he takes too many sacks, will fumble and throw picks and lately at the worse possible times. Everyone is held accountable but Ben it seems. Time to put him on notice.
I hear you about the defense for this game but from my count that 3 to 1. That's 3 awful games by the offense to one by the defense. The offense still had a chance to pull it out but they continue to turn the ball over.
Lets just be clear, the problem with the Steelers is the lack of talent on the field. There is only one way to change that and its amazing that they are only realizing that now and not in camp. Very poor from GM on down. It will change but its embarrassing for Steeler Nation.
I've never seen a Steelers team get pushed around defensively the way they have this season. I've said it before and I'll say it again ; they do not have the right personnel up front to run LeBeau's 34 scheme. At the end of this season, the coaching staff and front office really need to evaluate the defensive scheme they would like to run moving forward. Personally, I believe if we depart from veterans such as Kiesel, Clark, Foote, and Ike Taylor, they should allow Tomlin to implement his Tampa 2 defense with the young guys.
I know we are commenting on defense here but has anyone else noticed that the "supposed" upgrade at punter with the signing of Mesko is not yielding an advantage for our kicking game?? Sure, his hang time is good but when we have opportunities to flip field position, his punts seem to travel only 35 yards or so! Looks like the pats did the right thing by letting him go. Dave or Matthew can you do an article looking further into this?
Missed tackles piss me off almost as much as turnovers. How is it that I see PLENTY of teams whose DB's wrap up the opposing team's receiver with two arms the moment they catch the ball. Our guys? They look worried they're going to be fooled by a double move, so they dive at the player to one side with one hooking arm around them like they're doing a Barrel of Monkeys impression. Guys barely have to even shake the tackle. They actually look like they're reaching for the invisible flag on the receiver's belt.
0 turnovers in 4 games.. At what point is it not "bad luck" and falls on the players and scheme… Its been too consistent for a while now to be just bad luck..
Hey, Jared Allen, wanna play with a continual 10 point lead? Well, the Steeler defense gave the Vikings just that yesterday. In spite of being asked to play a mere 10 minutes of football in the first half of the game, the defense gave up 20 points (and zero Steeler turnovers were involved)! That is an awful performance. Worse yet, the Steeler offense takes second half kickoff and drives for a TD to cut lead to 3. What does the defense do? Allow another easy TD, allowing Jared Allen and company to continue to pin their ears back and eventually produce a couple of turnovers which are very much a part of today's NFL. Every defense in the NFL produces more turnovers when playing with a lead (not just the Steelers). And lately, the Steelers can't get a lead because their defense is horrendous.
I'm not saying blame everything on the defense. It's a team sport and clearly both sides of the ball have had big problems. But, as the offense seems to finally be getting better, the defense is being exposed as a terrible unit.
I agree with you Nolrog. You can't turn the ball over 5 times on offense and expect to win, then blame the defense. I guess he would blame the defense for the fumble run back for the TD as well. Silly. Did the defense play well? In spurts and was by no means great in the Chicago game. They did enough to ensure a win if the offense doesn't turn the ball over FIVE TIMES……
The point is the defense was very much part of the initial large lead the Bears obtained.
Steelers tackling was the worst I've seen in a long time.
Not sure if anyone saw this on AFC Playbook, but they showed the Steelers D each time the ball ended up on the ground and no players paid any attention.
The point was, teams like the Bears who have many turnovers see the ball as THEIRS, anytime it's not in someone's hands, and even then! They pounce on it and start the other direction.
Not the Steelers D.
Neither side of the ball has been good when the game has been close. That should be obvious after the last two games. That's what bad teams look like.
Disagree. The defense plays without talent. Where are the playmakers making impact plays? But, those guys are playing hard. Just not good at the moment.
Yep, I was disappointed with his game yesterday as well.
I agree that Ben's place on this team is no longer certain.
Timmons certainly didn't help any. He has been coddled and given more than he deserves at every step of his career because he was the very first pick in the Tomlin era. I have never thought as much of him as so many other fans seem to. That contract he received in 2011 was total joke because there was no other team in the league that would have paid 60% of what the Steelers gave him.
What the heck has happened to Ryan Clark? Last year he was a dominating force for the Steelers defense. This year, his contributions are terrible. In fact, his play his hurting our team rather than helping. His tackling his hideous. He seems to never be in position. It is just baffling to me. If Clark does not improve his play, I'd like to see more playing time from Shark.
Yes, I commented on this yesterday. We had the worst of both worlds in this game: corners playing way off the WRs, and then not making the tackles either.
Great post ^! His play through the first 4 games has been 180 degrees opposite from last year's pro bowl worthy performance. It's baffling.
Shannon, if this team wants to contend in the future, your points are valid. If our record takes us to a high draft pick, we have to take Bridgewater if he is there. Ben has been the face of the Steelers organization for years and has represented well. His style of play, or extending the play, is not cohesive with a young line. Defenses are now understanding how to defend him more. It's similar to the run and shoot, the pistol, the read option, etc. Teams catch on the second and third times around. Other teams look at tape and learn how to solve the riddle. Ben's extension of the play works at times, but compared to previous years, the percentage of negatives out way the positives. The Steelers held on to the Super Bowl team for too long, and we are witnessing the results of that currently. Hopefully, they have learned from this and know when it is time to move on when the time is right. If the Steelers end up with a high draft pick this season, I for one, am on the Bridgewater campaign.
It's really sad that a 35 y.o. Keisel remains one of your best players on D. Anyone seen Hood? Heyward? Clark is done and there is no reason to bring him back next year. Troy and Ike may not be culprits this year, but they remain overpaid and both should be asked to take significant pay cuts next year or released. I think Ike will do so, not sure about Troy. Timmons and Woodley are both overpaid as well, but Colbert has restructured their contracts beyond repair. The team is stuck with their contracts.
At least Colbert was smart enough to not extend anyone during training camp. Most players will be on the discount rack next year where they seem to belong.
Yes, I fully agree. I just mentioned my opinion to this little detail of your post 😉
Hopefully the FO is realizing they veered way off path by putting way too much money into so few players. That's never been the right formula to winning games and it's stunning the Steelers made this mistake. I'll put that on Art Rooney II as much as Colbert.
Exactlymy point. Also the lack of turnovers makes the other QB more confident in taking risks when throwing passes into a tiny window because they know the worst that can happen is an incompletion instad of an INT. Do you think the Steelers D intercept Ben that many times?
I mentioned this last week. REWATCH THAT FIRST QUARTER . The defense did nothing that first 20 minutes. First Chicago drive/ FG. Second drive was a short field caused by Ben's fumble/ still they scored way too easily/ Third drive was a long field and Chicago scored way too easily. Down 17 points. And if you noticed I included Ben, Foster and Adams in the loss too/
Here's the break down. BB hit Tonio (twice) for SB win in 2008, had a real nice season in 2009 and since the 2009 playoffs he has shit the bed. Too many injuries, too many concussions, too much money? Whatever it is, that turnover machine needs to go so the Steelers can get out of cap hell after 2014.
Suggested this personnel is a 4-3 and got mocked. They only have two decent LB, JJ could become the third, and 5 healthy, capable DLinemen.
Yeah, to all those who wanted to waste good money on old and /or average, see Ryan Clark and Ziggy Hood. That will be two improvements next year…maybe sooner?
Hey Roethlisberger, Pola, Ike, Woodley, and Timmons…We really sucked with you guys eating up the entire cap, so, you all get 50% cuts next year. Take it or leave it.
There's more to a football player than how well he performs…it's how well does he perform/ vs. the amount of cap space he eats up.
BB really must go, the others can take a cut.
agreed. would like to see a .gif breakdown of his performance through first 4 games. he appears to be slow(and/or indecisive, out of position), missing tackles, and not playing with the fire and intensity of years past.
Of course they would need to draft some new pieces and bring in a few free agents but I don't think the change would be as drastic as u think.
Also, teams change schemes with success all the time. Dallas went from the 34 to 43 and now they're near the top of the league in turnovers. New Orleans went from the 43 to 34 and ow have the top rated overall defense.
Maybe the vets need to stop playing ping pong during business hours too.
I think we are seeing what happens on defense when you lose guys like Aaron Smith and Casey Hampton. It all falls apart. Badly. For years, these two were the absolute best at their position and were double teamed every game. So take that away and fill it with someone like Ziggy Hood? You all see the results. No longer do our D lineman need double teamed – and that severely hinders our LB's from getting to the QB. Until the Steelers plug their D line with football players and not stiffs, things will NOT change. It's a sad fact. You simply cannot get to the QB in a 3-4 defense when your defensive line sucks, and an NFL QB without pressure is not going to turn the ball over.
Indeed it was disappointing to see the poor tackling by our defense. Obviously we've taken major steps backwards on D, but hopefully the rebuilding will pay dividends at some point before the decade is out. But I still believe we have a top 15 defense and a top 12 special teams to go along with our top 30 offense.
And since I'm not posting anything today without bashing Mike Adams, I'll say that if the coaches don't come to their senses and cut Mike Adams today, he should not only be benched, he should be the bench if he can prove he wouldn't roll over in that role.
There's a certain amount of logic there and tough decisions need to be made in the era of the salary cap, but the extreme example you cite would ensure that no one in the league would want to play in Pittsburgh.
I've always thought the salary cap is broken. These guys make way too much money and we (the fans) take the brunt of it through ticket prices, concessions, etc.
Put every player on a one million dollar a year contract. Bonuses paid through participating in all OTA's, meetings, playing in all games and bonus play (ex. a db's int. amount at seasons end. A lb's sack amount. A punter's net avg.).
Things look bad right now, but I think things are going turn around after the bye. The offense is starting to click a little bit even if ben is getting pressured on every throw. Bell and Heath are back now and ben has more weapons. The defense will not play like this again. This game was a fluke and lebeau will wip them into shape over the bye. I think steelers 27 jets 10 to move to 1-4.
Spending too much time on TV espn doing interviews instead of training.
McClendon Hood and Allen are the weakest link in our defense. McClendon is too light Steelers went from a 330lb DT to a 270lb DT. Hood a surprise draft pick who needs to play with more swagger. Allen from the citadel (another ricardo colclough small school project) should not be a starter in the nfl maybe nickel. A S.E.C. WR would eat him up everytime.

Trip Report Iceland continued
2) The Golden Circle Direct tour was a 6 hour trip, including direct hotel pick up, and a few delays/detours because of late travelers. Although we did not stop at Parliament, we lucked out with not just sunlight, but sunshine - making it clear enough to take plenty of photos from our bus at Thingvellier, of Viking horses grazing and sheep, of volcanoes and glaciers, of small towns where everyone has a jacuzzi in their backyard, and Halldor Laxness' house!! That last bit was a great surprise. I'd read The Fish Can Sing and Independent People just weeks before my trip. Excellent books - the latter won Laxness the noble prize in 1955. A) The Geysir spouted every 5-10 min, sometimes twice in a few seconds yet I was only able to capture the steam that remained. And yet we got sprayed. Very unexpected but Moreso funny. B) Gulfoss was awe inspiring. I imagined it to be thunderous and chilly - a bright rainbow stretched across the width and the lookout points were very peaceful.
C) Thingvellir Park was truly amazing. Its a UNESCO world heritage site. We stopped exactly where the North American plate and Eurasian plate meet. 3) We also used Reykjavik Excursions for our morning flybus pick up to the airport. The shuttle arrived promptly at 430 am but immediately turned off Laugavegur, where our hotel was. This was a disappointment for me because I wanted to take photos of all the party people. The music is still bumpin, the sun is out. I don't think there even is a last call.

I mean, if you take game like Vanguard, EQ2, Ultima, Runescape FFXI... and re work them to have Cry Engine graphics that can match games like Aion, or it can be still 2D ( in the case of Ultima ), but make the grapics like D3 etc2..
i am sure lots of people would really re-play them because i do know a lot of gamers love visuals + good gameplay = win
games nowadays lack that gameplay that we used to have in the older MMO, but really good visiual, which is awesome
but imagine if they take older MMO and make them visually good, damn i would really even sub back to those MMO

I think most of the issues with those MMO's arn't the reskinning aspect.
I know with FFXI they have changed it so much that I wouldn't even know where to start going back to it. And the Abyssia update killed the game IMO.
And Vanguard, a reskin wouldn't fix teh bugs.

For a year and then the graphics would be outdated and you'd be on to the next game. You've just explained exactly why it isn't a smart idea.

Heroes are about character - not gear.
Graphics are just one part of the issue, though. You could take some of the older games - use an engine that would make most computers cry* - but it would not matter, because it's still going to be the game it was. If it was a simple case of making a clone with a nifty engine, the game would be out there. The market's changed - what the mainstream wants...well...they've got.
* You're also going to face an issue with a state of the art engine that folks simply are not going to be able to run it. Take a look at Steam's hardware survey for a general idea...

well of course you dont quit because of the graphics, i, for one, still love to go back to VG just to see what;s going on, but at least old MMO that are dead, i see so many people keep saying they wish the game would get a remake with different dev. and i think that by enhancing new graphics, it will surely bring back the player base because, i am sure if there is a re work of an old game, a lof of the users who used to play the game would be interested to try the game once more
although, maybe a re-skin is not enough because yes, it will be the same game, only with nicer graphics, well, maybe i should have said a re-make of the game by different dev
So What Now?

Perhaps tomorrow will be better.
There is no profit in it or at least the devs claim there is not.
I can use the perfect example>>FFXI
So many people loved the game,all they wanted was updated graphics and housing.Square said it was near impossible,the time would cost them a lot with no profit in it.So they set out to whip together the failed FFXIV,they learned a big lesson,simply making better graphics is not enough.
Now what SHOULD happen is developers like Blizzard for example who have made multi millions from the users,should show some respect and give back to the game in form of FREE content and graphic updates.Continuing on the Wow trend,that game right now is among the lowest quality MMORPG's on the market of the big name games.It is the only game i can see a tree or rock texture that does not look like either.You can take the severely restricted FFXI game and ALL textures look realistic.
It takes a lot of work to make HQ textures,especially in olders games that are so robust.plus you have to realize that more poly count can severaly raise the lag issue,so they would maybe have to redesign the whole map,or like many games do,have less mobs,less objects.
The BEST effort i have ever seen was when UT99 came out,the Epic games staff created two sets of textures,one high quality and one low.Considering the era of 1999 those HQ textures looked pretty darn good,they made drab looking walls look a lot nicer.I feel EVERY game now should be designed with the highest quality graphics then allow players to adjust the depth.

hatred enriches.life is a prison, death a release.
updating graphic requirements wont help older games as the entire game eng is built from the ground up to make use of newer graphics the game would require retweeks to the animations and other eng parts that both A) make use of the higher quality graphics and B) actually allow the textures to match up and mesh correctly on the skeleton.
the price required to do that wouldnt really be worth while from a company standpoint as they would need not only new 3d artists to remake 100% of the game textures, but 3d models to make sure the new textures mesh correctly then bring back the game coders to retweek the code to allow for the update.
mod based textures dont really add to the game they make use of the game's eng. if the eng doesnt allow for it, you cant really do it 100% :/
id love to see some games get a retweek but i just dont see it as a viable choice for companies trying to make money off it :/

Only reason I dont play FFXI anymore and I mean the only reason is because Abyssea changed the game for the worse. Its not the FFXI back in the Zilart or even CoP days. I could see they were starting to casualize the game when ToAU came out and WoTG just made it more apparent. Then Abyssea just sealed the deal.
But if they did a reboot of FFXI back to Zilart/CoP days or even before I would be all over it in a heart beat, or a remake with some (keyword there, because I like FFXI's art and style) upgrades. With the same direction FFXI had when CoP was being released, I would play that game and never look back.

But what we're targeting to do, is have a fun anniversary to the Ilum shenanigans that happened. An alien race might invade, and they might crash into Ilum and there might be some new activities that happen on the planet." ~Gabe Amatangelo

Mainly because of two things.
First, it's not as easy as just "re-skinning"... it would mean basically creating the whole world, every NPC, mob, character and graphic from scratch, plus a substantial rewrite of the game engine itself to support the new graphics and technology. "Re-skinning" an older game wouldn't be that much easier than creating a new one to begin with.
Second... tastes have changed. Waiting for days for a particular open world mob to spawn was considered good back then, but just wouldn't work today. Re-creating a classic game and hoping it would be succesful today would be going trough the fine line between altering it enough so that the newer generation of gamers likes it, and not enough that would incur on the wrath of whoever played it back then, a balance that would most likely end up being not good for either side.
What can men do against such reckless hate?

The older mmos were in nature hardcore by todays standards. Which there is a crowd for but we are appearently the crowd the developers care to invest in any longer. So i dont think it is the graphics as much as the mechanics

Want to know where we are headed? Study National Grid's pilot
Quick Take: I wanted to highlight this press release about the next stage in National Grid's Worcester pilot because it highlights several trends that are taking root. For instance:
· "Converged" or "multi-service" communications networks based on IPv6
· Extensive consumer engagement based around saving energy and reducing bills
· Smart meter data as a component of outage management
· Time-of-use experiments
· Managed services, whereby the vendor is responsible for managing and maintaining things
You can find these things individually at other utilities and from other vendors, but this provides a nice encapsulation of the current state-of-the-art.

Itron Supports National Grid in Next Phase of Smart Grid Deployment
National Grid completes installation of Itron smart grid solution, powered by a Cisco IPv6 network, to enable consumer benefits and improve service reliability in Worcester
LIBERTY LAKE, Wash. â€" April 10, 2014 â€" Itron, Inc. (NASDAQ: ITRI) announced today that National Grid, a supplier of electricity to approximately 3.4 million customers in the Northeast, has entered the next phase of its smart grid project, completing installation of Itron's OpenWay® smart grid platform for its Smart Energy Solutions Program in Worcester, Mass. The platform, which features an advanced IPv6 network powered by Cisco, enables National Grid to increase electric service reliability, improve response to power outages and empower customers to save energy. National Grid utilizes Itron Services to manage and maintain the network.
In this new phase of the smart grid project, National Grid is using Itron's smart grid solution to enable consumer engagement programs that give the utility's customers better insights into their energy use and costs. The nearly 15,000 participating customers in Worcester can learn how much energy they are using throughout the day, allowing them better information to make smarter choices about ways in which they can save energy. Later this year, National Grid will also offer customers time-based pricing plans to help customers achieve even more energy savings.

St. Louis may be a perfectly nice town full of perfectly nice midwestern folk who say perfectly nice midwestern things like "not too bad" and "don't cha know" (we assume). In Boston, we're just not that nice. Here are five reasons completely unrelated to the action on the field that the unofficial capital of New England deserves this World Series victory more than St. Louis.

Aviva Premiership: Saracens hit back to remains unbeaten at the Stoop
Last Updated: 28/09/13 9:44pm
Chris Ashton scored the only try as Saracens picked apart Aviva Premiership title rivals Harlequins 22-12 in a dominant second half at the Twickenham Stoop.
The England wing rounded off an eye-catching move for his second try of the campaign and Owen Farrell kicked five penalties and a conversion to help the north London club to a fourth successive victory.
It is the first time the Premiership's only unbeaten team has failed to claim a try-scoring bonus point, but the manner in which they crushed a major rival in a one-sided second half sounded an ominous warning to the rest of the league.
Harlequins' aggressive defence was outstanding as they initially matched the pacesetters blow for blow and they deserved to lead 12-6 at the interval after Nick Evans had landed four penalties.
But having run themselves into the ground, their resistance faded and they repeatedly flung the ball in hope as Saracens expertly ground them into submission.
Namibian openside Jacques Burger, the dominant force at the breakdown, finished man of the match following another fearless display.
Only an unkind bounce prevented Saracens scrum-half Richard Wigglesworth from scoring early on as he blocked Evans' clearance, but the ball trickled beyond his reach and out of the in goal area.
Goode sin-binned
A frantic opening continued as Ugo Monye flattened Chris Wyles and George Lowe executed a try-saving tackle on David Strettle who lose the footrace to the whitewash.
Monye easily rounded Ashton as Quins attacked down the left, exposing the England wing's defence, chipped ahead and was then blocked by a shoulder from Alex Goode.
Sending Goode to the sin bin was an easy decision for referee Martin Fox and Evans slotted his second penalty, Quins led 6-0.
Farrell kicked a penalty for Saracens but Quins replied with a driving maul through the heart of the opposition pack and having spent much of the opening quarter in their own half, they were now in the ascendancy.
The lead was restored to six points by the boot of Evans, but that was threatened when Kelly Brown broke clear from a line-out and, seeing space before him, he dashed towards the line.
The Scotland blindside looked destined to score, but Tom Williams turned him over. Maurie Fa'asavalu yanked down Jacques Burger as a scuffle broke out and was sent to the sin bin as a result.
Farrell and Evans swapped penalties and the half ended with Strettle knocking on over the line.
Saracens had begun to build pressure as the interval approached and this continued when play resumed as they won penalties at successive scrums.
Billy Vunipola was becoming increasingly prominent and the first try arrived shortly after he had made the hard yards with Strettle, Farrell and Wyles instrumental in sending Ashton over.
Farrell converted and kicked a penalty and to rub salt into Quins' growing wounds prop Joe Marler was sin-binned for pulling down a maul.
A turnover was secured by Robshaw, who ripped the ball from Vunipola, but Saracens were irrepressible as they powered back upfield after capitalising on the growing number of errors made by the 2012 champions.
Two more penalties arrived from Farrell and when Evans missed a late penalty, the losing bonus points had slipped from Quins' hands.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfectly planned!,
Vlad Thelad (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Red Plenty (Hardcover)
So much has been written about the Soviet Union, and yet so many gaps remain to be filled. Red Plenty does just that: it covers the overlooked interlude that followed the horrors of Stalinism; it examines the cyber-economics that would have enabled the success of central planning; and, it gives a vivid portrait of what it all meant to individual lives. This book defies labelling; it is neither a history text, or an economic treatise or a novel, and yet achieves more than either of those could separately. If you are interested in Russian 20th century history, or in political economy, or simply looking for good reading material, this book is for you. Spufford writes brilliantly, as the rigorously researched factual and fictionalised passages equally attest.
I enjoyed this book throughout, from the introduction to the notes (which are remarkably well written, entertaining and interesting), and am sure you will too.
5.0 out of 5 stars An Insightful and Compelling Glimpse of Life Under Communism,
This review is from: Red Plenty (Paperback)
Having grown up during the Cold War (I was a teenager when Gorbachev was shaking things up in the USSR), I've always had a bit of a fascination with life behind the "Iron Curtain". The communist countries seemed so different than my own comfortable existence here in North America -- the USSR and its allies had deliberately chosen a radically different system than Capitalism. But how did that system work? Did it actually work at all? What was daily life like for people in those countries?
Although the USSR disappeared a long time ago, I continue to have a lot of curiosity about life under systems other than Capitalism. It's not that I harbour any nostalgia or empathy for Communism -- absolutely not. But I enjoy reading about these "alternative systems" because they illuminate the human psyche. There are significant lessons to be learned by reading about these countries, how they operated (for better or worse), and why ultimately they radically shifted course in the late 1980's and early 1990's.
Mr. Spufford has written a very engaging book. It's not quite fiction, nor does it pretend to be a truly historical account of life in the USSR. It's a compendium of short stories, each story told from a different character's perspective. The majority of the characters are based on real people, and Mr. Spufford goes to great lengths (in the introduction and the addendum) to explain how he "padded" the real lives of these people in order to create a narrative.
The book straddles numerous actual historical events, diverse subjects, and ties everything together into an "almost" true-to-life drama that evolves over many years, from the death of Stalin in the 1950's, to the ascendance of Brezhnev in the 1970's. Within those decades, Mr. Spufford creatively isolates characters within their worlds in order to explain what the USSR was like: we visit collectivized farms, a central planning office, a Soviet hospital, etc. ... as you read about how each character struggles with their lot in life, you really begin to empathize with them, and the difficulties and opportunities that Communism presented them.
Hard-line believers in Communism (of whatever flavour) will probably not like this book. They would probably find Mr. Spufford's perspective to be reductionist, biased, and/or flawed. The picture that Mr. Spufford paints is not a pretty one. 21st-century Communists would probably label him as "revisionist" and, if they could, set him up for a spectacular show-trial and death-by-firing squad. Fortunately, we've moved beyond that paradigm.
If you're an armchair history fanatic with a love of Cold War intrigue, or if you have interest in Socialism and life in the USSR, you'll really enjoy this book. Highly recommended!
4.0 out of 5 stars A story of high ideals and noble ambitions turned to a bureaucratic quagmire.,
Len (Slave Lake, Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Red Plenty (Kindle Edition)
This is really a series of short stories recounting the dream of the communist party's attempt to create an economy of plenty. The book begins with Brezhnev travelling to New York to talk to the most powerful businessmen in the country. Ironically, he travels in a car designed after an American luxury vehicle. Brezhnev is wants to transfer the same dedication used by the Soviet Union to increase industrial production that was a focus of the Stalin to years to the production of consumer goods. As well as politicians, there are academics, economists and bureaucrats and criminals populating the rest of the book. The stories are well written and engaging however the transition between them can be jarring. I just became interested in one character and Mr. Spufford is moving onto the next. The book does however provide a terrific insight of how the Brezhnev's dream of creating a consumer paradise based on communist principles turns into more of the same after Khrushchev comes to power. It's a story of high ideals and noble ambitions turned to a bureaucratic quagmire.

Ev'ryday I'm Bubln': First look at Bublr Bike Share
Midwest BikeShare announced its second kiosk opening today, and the city is abuzz about it (or maybe it's bubbling about it?), so I had to check it out. After signing up online and plunking down the membership fee (you can save $10 on your yearly pass with discount code: bublrnow), I went to checkout my first bike. While there, I saw Kevin Hardman, the launch director for Midwest BikeShare.
"Looking good," I told him. "I love the name: Bublr. It's friendly. It makes this program sound fun."
The name Bublr was derived from the Wisconsin-centric slang for "drinking fountain," which helps localize the program within the community.
"We wanted to make it sound easy," Hardman said, who mentioned that even the term "bike" can be intimidating. "Don't ride a bike, ride a Bublr."
So I did.
The checkout process was easy. Just insert the card you used to sign up, and follow the on-screen instructions. If you haven't signed up online, you can pay a daily fee at the station.
"Some of the instructions need slight updating," Hardman noted. "We're still working to make it more user friendly."
The main problem is that even when you have a membership, the screen still incorrectly says you'll be charged a daily fee, which is not true.
"Soon we'll be mailing out keyfobs," Hardman said.
Keep your card in your wallet; these keyfobs will replace the need to interact with anything besides the bike you want to borrow. Just wave it over the sensor of the bike you want and "beep beep beep," the bike is yours to ride.
The Bublr bikes are designed to be more upright and sit the rider in a comfortable position. The seat height can be adjusted with the flip of a lever. Each bike comes equipped with fenders, skirt guards, chain guards, a rack, a built-in lock and a bell.
I had a bag with me, so I threw it in the basket at headed out.
The inital start was a little different than my preferred bikes. With the upright fork, it felt a little twitchy. I attributed part of this to my bag in the basket, but after half a minute, I was sailing along very comfortably. I Bubl'd around Downtown for about 10 minutes getting a feel for the machine and then decided to check out the only other available kiosk: the lakefront. There is a short term plan to get at least 10 kiosks up and running before the end of the summer, and a long term plan to have 40 or more in the next year or so.
Going to the lakefront meant going up and down some of Milwaukee's meanest hills.
The bikes are equipped with three-speed grip shifters and internally geared hubs. With these shifters, you don't have to worry about misaligned derailleurs or complex combinations of gears. Three speeds: easier, cruising and faster. These proved sufficient for Milwaukee's reasonable sized hills (though, in my opinion, you can never have too many gears).
The brakes are a kind of roller or drum brake, which makes maintenance easy, but were not sufficient for my faster, more aggressive riding style. They just stopped too slowly for my taste.
The built-in lock will likely be the biggest learning curve. You have to know where to plug it in to make it lock and figure out where the key comes out. But master this problem, and you'll have figured out the hardest part of the program.
As I cruised along, I thought about my own bikes and whether it would make sense for me to continue subscribing to the bike share. Do I need to rent when I already own?
It certainly seems useful for a lunchtime run to restaurants that are just slightly beyond walking distance. The basket also makes sense for small grocery store runs. If I'm out on my own bike and get a flat, Bublr bikes could save the day. I wouldn't have to leave my bike unprotected and vulnerable at the intermodal station or airport for long periods of time when I leave the city, and I wouldn't have to wait for someone to pick me up.
Yeah, I think I'll keep it. I'm looking forward to the day when the city is busy (or fizzy?) with Bublr bikes.

Basketball is a game that involves quick moves, clever tactics, and constant energy, but there is nothing dynamic about this logo. The whole thing is mirrored from right to left.

Bublr is back with new stations and pricing
Published March 13, 2015
Bublr, the city's first bike share system, rolled out last year and was subsequently rolled back in before winter. But while the wheels were only on the ground for a limited time, the company still deemed it a success, coasting through the finish line with an impressive 5,500 trips. What was not so successful, however, was the confusing pricing. So as Bublr gears up to return, the company announced a new, simpler pricing structure.
Ramen party is a perfect pairing with Wisconsin winters
Published March 4, 2015
Ramen for a dinner party is an exciting and relatively inexpensive theme to craft a dinner party around. At its very basic it only requires a few veggies and a handful of noodles, but it has the ability to unfold possibilities like a flower. During a ramen party, there is something of a slow, orchestral build until suddenly the cymbals are crashing, the violin bows are fraying and the tubas are blasting fortissimo.

Disappointment followed. How could we allow this to happen? This band felt like it was composed of sun-bleached driftwood, waiting for a match to drop and set fire to the music scene. It was a band that made Milwaukee's music scene vibrate. So I was surprised this morning when my phone lit up with a message...

GSXR Can Anyone?
Anyone interested in doing the 2001-2002 Suzuki GSXR exhaust can mod to their TA? I just picked one up yesterday to do my bike then got a PM from an ADVrider who has another one available for $25 + shipping from Michigan. The 01-02 GSXR 600 cans weigh a hair over 6lbs whereas our stock boat anchors weigh at least 13lbs - overall length is 19.5 inches. Besides the weight loss, you'll get a little more growl out of your TA too without paying $400+ for a Remus or similar aftermarket can.
One downside is you'll need to install a Forest Service approved spark arrestor if you intend to ride legally on USFS lands. The FMF #040298 Titanium Powercore arrestor fits the 01-02 GSXR cans perfectly but is a little pricy at around $38 - some other brand might work but the FMF #040298 definately does.
If I'm not mistaken, here's a pic of a TA with a GSXR can installed
And Jim Rowley's AT with a GSXR can
The 01 GSXR 600 Can that's available - looks like it's in damn near flawless condition so someone should jump on it quick for $25 + shipping!
