Durable tire great for training
By Aaron
from Rutland, Vermont
About Me Competitive Cyclist
Best Uses
Comments about Continental Ultra Sport II Road Tire:
This tires are great training tires! They are durable, and I rarely, if ever, get flats with them. The roads around here have a lot of pot holes, and are very rough. These tires inspire confidence in these road conditions. The best part is, they are very economical and last a long time. They wouldn't be a great racing tire, though. They are pretty heavy.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Roll nice, wear quickly
By KinglearPa
from Sayre, Pa
About Me Avid Cyclist
Bought a pair of these This spring. At $20 a tire I wasn't expecting much and these delivered my expectations. The good: Nice soft compound and decent ride, decent rolling resistance. The bad: My 25c rear tire wore to the cords in just a tick over 1000 miles. It was on it's last ride and the sidewall cut down, so it was retired.I'm a definite clyde though at 240# so that sort of wear on a cheap tire is normal. Over the 1000 miles I had 4 flats 2 pinch, a wire, and the final cut sidewall. Average weight riders might have better luck. Good quality construction.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Doctors see a rise in people allergic to nickel, often found in healthy foods
(COLUMBUS, Ohio) – Sara Plumby says she was doing everything right. She was exercising several times a week, going to bed early and was committed to eating only nutritious foods. "I was basically eating a vegetarian diet," said Plumby, "with nuts, beans, soy and lots of fruits and vegetables. It was a very healthy diet."
But instead of enjoying the benefits of leading a healthy lifestyle, Plumby was simply miserable.
"My tongue would burn and my muscles would twitch so badly that I had sleep disruptions and would wake up in the morning feeling like I wasn't rested," she said. Then there were the constant and painful rashes that would blister the inside of her legs, the outside of her upper thighs and her feet. "I just kept feeling worse as the years went on, and didn't know what was wrong with me," she said.
Finally, on the advice of her doctor, Sara went to see Dr. Matthew Zirwas, a nationally renowned dermatologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.
Within a few weeks Dr. Zirwas figured it out. The foods Sara was eating in an effort to stay healthy were actually making her sick. It turns out Sara is allergic to nickel, a mineral often found in healthy foods.
"These allergies can be life-altering," said Dr. Zirwas. "I mean, these people are absolutely miserable as a result of this."
And Sara is not alone. Dr. Zirwas says about fifteen percent of the U.S. population is allergic to nickel, but most of them only show symptoms when they come into contact with it, by wearing items that contain nickel, like watches, jewelry or belt buckles.
A growing number, however, are showing up at doctors' offices not because they are wearing nickel, but eating it.
"We've seen more nickel dermatitis in the last five years," said Dr. Zirwas. "And the reason, we think, is that there's been a shift in dietary habits. As people are trying to eat healthier, they're actually eating more nickel."
Foods generally considered to be healthy often contain the most nickel. Oatmeal, whole grains, whole wheat, soy, nuts and beans contain nickel. It's also found in dark chocolate and even in stainless steel pots and pans. "So, if you are cooking foods that are very acidic, like tomatoes, lemons or vinegar," said Dr. Zirwas, "the nickel can be released from those pots and pans into the food and boost your nickel intake."
But diagnosing a nickel allergy isn't as easy as you might think. It takes a long time for excessive nickel to build up in your system, so it could be months or even years before symptoms are obvious.
"It's not like a normal allergy to, say, peanuts," said Dr. Zirwas. "If someone is allergic to peanuts, you know within seconds there is a problem, because they immediately begin to swell and have a severe reaction."
"With a nickel allergy, it's much more the cumulative amount of nickel that you eat," he said. "So, if you start eating more nickel, it slowly builds up in your body until your immune system get stimulated enough that you start to break out in this rash."
Plus, as Sara can attest, not all doctors are familiar with nickel allergies, so patients often suffer symptoms with no answers. "I had been to different doctors for allergy testing about twelve years ago, and maybe 10 years ago," she said. "Their tests showed nothing. I'd also been to a dermatologist who did a biopsy of my rash, and it showed nothing," she said.
But after seeing Dr. Zirwas, Sara got answers. "I was shocked," she said, "because I was eating a healthy diet, but the healthy diet was making me worse."
Today, Sara is on a low-nickel diet and is taking medication to help draw the nickel out of her body. In less serious cases, doctors may also suggest patients eat a chewable vitamin C tablet before each meal, which binds to the nickel and prevents it from being absorbed in the body.
"I'm still on the road to recovery," said Sara, "but I'm just so happy we found this allergy. Just knowing it's there has made a huge difference in my life."

In the tight economy, front-end engineers and front-end engineering can play a conspicuous role: good user experience, as the iPhone spectacularly demonstrates, means good business.
At the 7th International AJAXWorld RIA Conference & Expo which opened Monday in New York City, the speaker lineup is as usual dripping with real-world expertise. The distinguished Speaker Faculty is headlined by Oracle's Ashish Mohindroo, whose Opening Keynote on "Breaking the Collaboration Barrier with Rich Enterprise Applications" set the tone for two intense days of breakout sessions across three parallel tracks.
According to Mohindroo and Oracle, Rich Enterprise Applications (REAs) promise breakthrough capabilities and services for achieving higher levels of personal and team productivity throughout your enterprise.
"Consumer web and mobile technologies are setting high standards for what end users expect from enterprise applications, increasing the gap between complexity of technology and the time in which IT has to deliver," he said. Mohindroo continued:
"These trends are redefining the role of the enterprise developer and increasing the pressure to provide enterprise application users with next-generation collaboration tools, while ensuring integration of those capabilities into existing enterprise infrastructure."
His keynote outlined among other things Oracle's vision on the rapid creation of collaboration tools, of mashing up existing applications, injecting Portal capabilities into plain web apps, and building scalable Enterprise 2.0-style applications that render rich user experiences using AJAX, Java Server Faces, and Flash.
The Speaker Faculty today and tomorrow in New York includes practitioners and executives from a wide range of industry players:
- Mehmet Akin - UI Lead Developer, IBM
- Akbar Ali Ansari - Software Engineer, Oracle
- Matias Bagini - CEO, JRapid Corp
- Keith Bergelt – CEO, Open Invention Network
- Eric J. Bruno - Systems Engineer, Sun Microsystems
- Robert Boedigheimer - Web Application Architect, Schwans Shared Services
- Sujoe Bose - Research Scientist, DSine Dynamics
- Max Carlson - Lead Runtime Architect, OpenLaszlo
- Robbie Cheng - Senior Engineer, Potix Corp
- Jim Connors - Systems Engineer, Sun Microsystems
- Jose de Castro - Lead Architect, Voxeo Corporation
- Yakov Fain - Managing Director, Farata Systems
- Michael Girouard - Sr. Developer, Magnani Carusso Dutton

Developer Productivity - Building enterprise software during the 90s was surprisingly faster than doing it today using the HTML/AJAX way. As a result, many platforms are emerging to bring the old 4GL/RAD productivity back again into the AJAX world. Matias Bagini, CEO of JRapid Corp and himself an experienced software engineer with technical and entrepreneurial background, will be exploring this topic in June in a session called "Bringing Productivity Back to Developers in the Age of AJAX."
EC2 & AJAX - Anil Gurnani,Technical Project Manager at J P Morgan Chase, will be giving a case study session in New York describing how to use the amazing power of Amazon EC2 services and AJAX client applications to develop enterprise class applications that can scale to support hundreds of thousands of users.
Enterprise RIA - If applied incorrectly, an enterprise RIA can degrade server performance and hamper the scalability of the application as a whole. In a session titled "RIA-lizing Enterprise Applications", Dr Sujoe Bose will explore an effective, repeatable, objective and rigorous method to "RIA-lize" enterprise applications, one that not only addresses usability but also scalability and performance – important characteristics of killer-apps. "The intent is to provide a migration path to RIAs that is less risky and more rewarding," says Bose.
Flex - "Adobe Flex and the Microsoft.NET Framework - Strange But Amazing Bedfellows" is the title of a fast-paced session being given in New York by Habeeb Rushdan, a Senior Software Engineer and Technical Trainer. Delegates will receive a brief introduction into both of these exciting programming worlds and then Rushdan will describe how to leverage both of them to create a data-driven, visually stunning front end in Flex and an enterprise-ready SOA backend in .NET.

Information Dashboards - The User Experience Officer and co-founder of NEXThink, Patrick Hertzog, will present a session offering practical guidelines for designing effective dashboards and avoiding common pitfalls. "Every manager, from the sales manager to the CEO, wants a dashboard displaying her own KPIs," notes Hertzog. His session in NYC is called: "Information Dashboards: Design & Implementation"
Internet Explorer 8 - IE8 will ship in a new "standards" mode by default, which has the potential to impact many sites that have been crafted around various "features" in past versions. In a must-attend session, "Internet Explorer 8 and its Impact on Your Web Sites," Robert Boedigheimer, principal of Robert Boedigheimer Consulting, will discuss which current practices will need to change and how this will affect your development techniques and your existing sites. "Don't be surprised the day IE 8 ships and your sites break," says Boedigheimer. "Be prepared!"
JavaFX - What is JavaFX...and why should you care? - That is precisely the questions being addressed in NYC by Sun's Eric Bruno and Jim Connors, both systems engineers and both highly qualified to speak about every aspect of JavaFX from the language (JavaFX Script), to the platforms (JavaFX, JavaFX Mobile, and JavaFX TV), development tools, and Java integration.
JavaScript - "Object Oriented JavaScript" is the title of the New York session being given by Mike Girouard, a senior front-end web developer at the creative agency Magnani Caruso Dutton. The session will explore the JavaScript programming language and will demonstrate several practical design patterns delegates can use in their JavaScript/AJAX application today.
JavaScript 2 - Max Carlson from OpenLaszlo.org is giving a session showing how OpenLaszlo 4.3 includes a new JavaScript 2-based compiler that translates JS2 syntax to a variety of formats, including JS 1.5, Actionscript 1 & 2 and Actionscript 3. It's called "Using JavaScript 2 Today with OpenLaszlo."
Java Servlet 3.0 - see Comet
Object-Oriented JavaScript - see JavaScript
Rich Clients - AJAX is not the only player in the space of UI development. a second renaissance regarding Rich Client technologies is taking place, with Rich Client frameworks such as Microsoft Silverlight and Adobe Flex. In a session called "Thin Client or Rich Client?" UI Architect Florian Mueller will be focusing on several aspects regarding technology choice and will give delegates in New York guidelines for deciding when to follow the Rich Client path in the future and when to go with a Thin Client instead.
Ruby on Rails - In a session called "Appcelerator RIA on Rails" delegates will have a chance to learn how to leverage existing JSON services implemented in Ruby on Rails controllers to provide the server back end for a rich Internet application using the Appcelerator RIA framework.
Silverlight - see Rich Clients
Thin Client vs Rich Client - see Rich Clients
Web App Design - In a sure-to-be-jam-packed New York session intriguingly called "What Web App Design Can Learn From the Harpsichord," Meebo.com co-founder and VP of Engineering Elaine Wherry will walk through recent web application design and analyze the functionality of these elements. "As designers explore how far they can go, there comes a breaking point where it hurts the end product," says Wherry. "Lesson learned is that just because you can, doesn't mean you should."

The basic integration architecture, as defined by ESBs, hasn't changed for more than a decade. Most cloud integration providers still rely on an ESB architecture and their proprietary connectors. As a result, enterprise integration projects suffer from constraints of availability and reliability of these connectors that are not re-usable across other integration vendors. However, the rapid adoption of APIs and almost ubiquitous availability of APIs amongst most SaaS and Cloud applications are rapidly redefining traditional integration approaches and their reliance on proprietary connectors. ...

It's CVT, dawg. Prepare to be assimilated.
ps. Someone was nice enough to actually bump our new one today while my wife was at the mall. slight, minor divot and removable blue color.
Grrr. Can I at least make the FIRST payment?

That soooo sucks !!!
And further examination this AM confirms my error. It is CVT, but the auto-stick feature is still pretty impressive. The "shifts" are a bit slow but more than acceptable. The feature allows the car to be driven around like a stick but still have A/T, sorry, CVT, qualities on the highway.
We're in semi rural New England. Having a manual or a good functioning auto-stick is a good idea. Winding, old, roads with zero room between you and the trees/rocks means ya gotta keep yer car in 3rd or 4th and use engine braking to keep the speed reasonable. So far, the Jeep CVT is doing a good job at this.
More later....where's my coffee cup...?

OK, just returned from an 1 1/2 hour, errand running drive.
There's lots to like about the little car.
Boxy. Clear tribute to the old Cherokee. Maybe a bit to much, but it works for me. Fit looks good. All the panels and assorted stuff fit well...gaps even and not excessive. Nothing falling off or hanging out. Nicely trimmed out
Engine compartment neat and tidy and quite roomy. Looks like it would be easy to work on.
Compact dimensions. Appears to be slightly smaller than my Element: not quite as long or wide, and much shorter. Entry is almost car like. Closer to a Ford 500 (Taurus) than an SUV.
Interior is nicely laid out. Very simple, all the controls and switches easy to reach and very intuitive. Gauges are simple and easy to read. Steering wheel is height adjustable only. Radio works only OK. Sound is fine, but reception is a bit lacking. Maybe the upgraded one is better. Switches and controls have a good feel. Not MB like but certainly not cheesy. Particularly like the almost silent side view mirror motors. Heat and A/C motor seems noisy...or there was an associated vibration in the dash.
A/C worked well. Cooled the car quickly and then kept it cool with a low fan setting.
A goodly number of cubbies and storage areas to loose stuff.
First impressions of seats were too soft and too low. After a few miles they became quite agreeable. Seating position is good. Visibility all around quite good. I wish the seats had a height adjustment and lumbar adjustment, but overall, I could live with the setup.
Back seat is a bit odd. It's pretty much a flat plank. I found the seat bottoms too short, but wifey thought it was ok. It's the price for having the fold flat back seats. Jeep might have come up with a more elegant solution, but not for this price.
Also, entering the back is a bit odd. There is a significant step down from the sill to the floor. Kind of like stepping over the frame rails in an older Jeep. Results in a 4-" deep footwell. Nothing to worry about, just unexpected. And...I guess it sound be taken into consideration for snowy weather..rubber floor mats a must. OTOH....when shopping, anything you put in the back footwells, STAYS there....noting will roll around the floor
The other issue in the back seat cup holders. A big 'ol double holder on the floor between the two outer seats. It doesn't fold up or disappear. It's there. Effectively makes this a four seater. There may be a seat belt and room for a center passenger, but they'd have to remove their legs first.
It's a very nice wee car to drive. The CVT takes some getting used to but it's really no big deal. The added feature of the auto-stick function works very, very well. I noted before the shifts seem slow, but that was at low speed around the 'hood. At speed, on the road, the upshifts and downshifts are quick and positive. Not jerky or jarring, but very assertive, and much faster you could do it your self. Did I mention it's a 6-speed ! Lots of fun. Leaving it in "D" gives you the basic A/T experience. A bit different to drive, but nothing that can't be adapted to very quickly.
Engine has more than adequate power. It's not a spotlight racer, but will get you there and back quite smartly.
Ride quality is very good. Firm but not harsh. Basic bumps, road irregularities, small pot holes, etc are soaked up without notice. For such a short wheelbase car and low price, it's very impressive. There is a moderate amount of wind noise from either the A pillar , the mirrors or both. It is not intrusive and does not seem to increase from 50 to 70. You're bound to get some noise. The Patriot isn't excessive and would be easy to live with. Road noise is, again, very impressive. The chassis soaks it up and takes it away. The tires are bit noisy, but they're OEM tires and can be replaced easily.
Road manners are very good. Steering is very nicely weighted. Turn in and handling are predictable and firm. Brakes are very good. Through the twisties it isn't a Miata but certainly holds it own and will give the driver confidence.
One note abound the ride and handling. A few weeks ago I came very close to buying a new VW Jetta TDI or CC. The dealer started playing games and I walked. I wasn't too unhappy because I had been put off by the lack of road feel from either car. As a long time owner of German cars I was very disappointed with the latest VW's . This little Jeep, however, manages to give you a firm, confident, quiet ride and still maintains a great attachment to the road.
The rear compartment is good sized but a bit high. The lift over might be an issue for some, but its still a good sized hole to throw stuff.
A note about the interior. A lot of criticism has been heaped on the Jeep for it's "plasticy" interior. Yes, it's plasticy. So is virtually every other car between $10k and $24k. Hondas, (my Element is WAYYY plasticy), Nissan, Mazda, Toyota, you name it, the use of soft-touch materials are saved for higher end cars for the most part. VW and Ford are using soft touch stuff from the eye line up which helps, but for the most part, it is what it is. Jeep can't be faulted for using the same money saving techniques. We'd all like to see higher quality materials in the interiors, but this is what it is now. Jeep shouldn't be criticized for this. If, in 2 years, everyone else has gone full soft touch and Jeep hasn't, then thy should be hammered. Right now, it's a pretty slim excuse to beat up on the car.
Overall, this is a fine car. At the price point $16k entry to $25K with all the bells and off road whistles, it's pretty impressive. Perhaps at the higher priced levels it may have stiffer competition, but if someone is looking at $16-$21, retail, this is definately a contender (considering a $16-$21k retail could probably be had for $14k-$19k)
But some of the "other" stuff....
No seat back pockets
Rear cup holders...really ? This the best they could do ?
Would like to see more 12v outlets, in front, back, and luggage areas
Front seat height and lumbar adjustment
Steering in/out adjustment
Finish quality....Orange peel ? on a new car ???
Minor stuff ? You Bet.
Jeep/Chrysler/MB/Fiat whoever, put together a pretty nice little package.
Now, if it only came in a diesel....
(xpadrex...think yous gots a nice ride there !)
Additional note 1...when wifey's company sled crapped out the first time, she got a Ram Dakota 4x4 Crew Cab ! Hot Damn...I was ready to do some truck kinda work !
VERY disappointed. The best part was the bed of the truck. There isn't enough bandwidth to tell you how poor the design and quality of this thing was.
So when said she was coming home with another Chrysler product....well, lets just say my expectations weren't very high.
Pleasantly surprised.
Additional note 2...wifeys company car is a Saturn Hybred SUV. Previous company ride was Buick SUV of similar size. We both agree this little Jeep is a nicer, more comfortable car to drive

That was an exceptionally thorough and accurate review! The Latitude package remedies some, but not all, off the issues raised. Our driver's seat is height adjustable, which is a hoot... taking you from captains chair lite at the top, to gangsta low at the bottom.it also has two power sources, a 12volt, and a 110 wall charger type.
No, I think you judged it well, especially considering the price and purpose of the PAtriot. See you soon on jeeppatriot.com. :)

allan 16 - you should publish your review, I found it the most helpful one I've read yeat. I am definitely going to give the Patriot a closer look at after reading all the satisfied reports posted here. I agree, the fit and finish is good for a vehicle of this price range.

I've been in the foreign car biz my whole life. Had more cars than I care to admit to. So many of the high end cars, while great fun to drive and really magic, are so very impractical these days. I mean,where can you really use a 160 mph Honda ? Do you really need a 270hp Accord ?
Saw a new Acura crossover, the ZDX, on display....it was $57,000 ! Excuse me ? I can buy a rusted out Pacer if I wanted that much ugly in my driveway.
It seems we've just gotten so off track with cars and SUVs due to easy credit and leasing deals that we've forgotten what a car is.
Except in the low range.
The $15k-$24k is my favorite.
There are sooo many cool cars in that range. Pretty much all of them have issues with quality of trim, but lots have very cool technical features. Even the Diesel Jetta wagon I drove (but didn't buy) was pretty sweet...for $24.5.
Looking around, there are so many choices...VW, Mazda, Subaru, Kia, Hyunda (sp?), Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Ford, that I hadn't thought about the Jeep. When it arrived home I was impressed with the overall package and looked into the cost...very surprised. Then found this thread and thought it would be a good idea to put it through its paces and see how it performed.
It may not fill the bill for everyone, but in this price range I wouldn't hesitate sending someone off to take a serious look.
My next favorite car line is the low end. With the new Fiesta (which does push the limits of the pricing I know), the new Mazda 2, upcoming Fiat 500 (probably Jan/Feb 2011) and the existing line of mini cars and cubes from Yaris, Scion, Nissan, Kia, etc. there are just soo many choices for good, practical, fun cars.
Can't get the leather, nav system, multiple video displays, ear shattering stereo ? Geez, for the price, you can buy the car and get all that stuff installed, aftermarket, to YOUR specifications !
Sorry...rant over.
Oh, and if you didn't know about it, www.kbb.com is a good place for the facts on lots of cars.

Anticipate some mild interior upgrades, from what I've seen and read on jeeppatriot.com (Great forum, BTW)
They are not expecting the "air" (new world engine) for 2011.
My thought was that they couldn't change enough to justify not taking advantage of either the rebate (if you are buying outright), or in my case, the 1.9% financing (we financed) plus the discounts on the leftover models.
BTW, I gotta ask- is your handle pronounced (Jack DEE), or (JACKED)?
I've been in my head saying that latter, and it friggin' rules.
Get the Patriot. It's pretty damn cool. Sadly, my F650GS won't fit in the back*.

What is the "new world engine"? I'd be glad if they put the old slant 6 in there.... Go with the former not the latter.

It a redo of the current gen World Engine (as it is called, a collaborative effort between rival auto manufacturers). It will, allegedly, have a boost in power and mpg.

Seagate promises new drive designs
The team at Engadget has heard that we may in for some new designs from Seagate - the storage chaps.
Pictured are what could be the next-gen hard drives for the FreeAgent line-up (check out picture number 2).
Says Engadget: "The drive on the left is a likely FreeAgent Desktop replacement while the drive on the right looks to either augment or replace the FreeAgent Go series with its thinner profile and docking port".
And the new drives will be available in a whole array of colours from grey, black and silver to red, green, gold and pink.
Speeds will start at 5400RPM but could be boosted to 7200RPM in the future.
Expect an annoucement in September.

Price Value Quality
I just bought 6 xx75 magnum aluminum 20 inch with flatback nocks and will not ever buy another flatback nock from anyone. I have a bait area set at 25 to 30 yards and my scope was set for that. and there was no way I could have missed at that range. My only conclusion is the flatbaccck shootsd different. I would not recommend these to anyone.

Philadelphia– With the NHL still in a lockout, Kristen Laviolette, the wife of Flyers head Coach Peter Laviolette, is trying her best to keep the flyers nation going. On Saturday, she hosted the Flyers Charities Halloween 5K run and walk at the Wells Fargo Center at 9 a.m. Proceeds benefited local non-profits. With October being breast cancer awareness month, representatives were there from the Fox Chase Cancer Center and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The event had a huge turnout with fans running as cartoon characters, movie stars, flyers players, referees and even as Coach Lavy? JP Allen, the Producer for Philadelphia's hit radio station, Wired 96.5, was running the 5k in the pads of Flyers very own goalie, Illya Bryzgalov; while Coach Lavy was dressed as an NFL Referee. But the best costume of the day goes to Peters wife Kristen, who dressed as The Coach! Yep that's right, Kristen showed off her costume of her husband Coach Peter Laviolette. The event was a huge success and ...

One more observation:
I already knew this to be the case, but definitely didn't realize the extent. The stock BMW speedo is optimistic. We all know that. What I didn't realize though is just HOW optimistic. Since hooking up the trailtech and having a working tach and speedo, I'm now turning 4180 RPM at 60mph whereas that engine speed had me over 70 mph previously. GPS agreed with my speedo REALLY well too. The stock wheel size setting on the trailtech had me within 1 mph of the GPS at 70mph. No wonder it always took me so long to go everywhere before. I was actually going 60 when I thought I was going 70.

NPR: Some French Muslims See Conspiracies in Paris Shootings
NPR's All Things Considered had a segment yesterday on the disturbing support for the Charlie Hebdo terrorists in some Muslim areas of France, and the antisemitic conspiracy theories making the rounds.
For many years the French have been eager to import Muslims for cheap labor but not so eager to actually have them assimilate into French culture. They essentially treat their Muslim population as second class citizens and the suburbs are basically ghettos. It's a bad situation in which extremists can take root and spread their poison.

I am sure the 360 version is working just fine... but consoles AER TEH EVIL!
"Consoles just work" is usally my mantra when I switch to them, which I try to do every couple years. It's certainly their main upside.
I'm not really speaking toward that thouh, I'm just saying we need to accept market realities and quit knocking great games for being developed for consoles as a baseline. The market on PC is just not strong enough to support it being the baseline, and it's actually much easier to "start at the bottom" graphics wise anyway. One of the reasons the PC still sees such robust support despite the bad press, bad sales and piracy is because it's pretty damn easy to port a console game over without much investment. It's not going to change, unless PC sees a resurgance at some point. Pete Wanat was on a podcast I listen to recently and he basically said they reason there are still PC versions of all these games is because they're basically free to make.
So get over it, it's not changing, enjoy the games rather than focusing on this crap. Enjoy that they run in greater resolutions with more AA and have awesome mouse-aim... even the lamest console port is usually better than the original version.
Basically stop bit#^%ng. Thanks.

"What everyone around the adversaries is doing during an escalation is extremely important, from egging them on to frowning on what they are doing," says Mr. Williams. "Imagine if 60 people stood strong behind someone who was being wronged by a bully. That would stop it dead in its tracks. The problem is we are not taught this anywhere." The Gatto bill, he says, may help to create a greater culture of watchfulness among fans at sporting events, because of the reward potential, and a disincentive to take part in violence because potential perpetrators would know they are being watched.
Some major league sports teams have instituted new safety precautions. The NFL's Cincinnati Bengals set up a system for fans to text security officials about altercations, to remain uninvolved. MLB's Oakland Athletics cut off alcohol sales after the seventh inning, while security personnel and concessionaires monitor crowds for disorderly behavior.
Though the two California incidents are receiving much media attention, violence at sports stadiums is not on the upswing, experts say.
"This [San Francisco] episode and the one at Dodger Stadium should not be viewed as sign of a new trend. Crowd violence is hardly a new phenomenon," says criminologist James Fox, at Northeastern University in Boston. "These are just two extreme cases that happened to occur coincidently in the same state."
"We would echo that this is nothing new and needs to be looked at in the context of masculinity in our culture," says Mr. Chin. The bigger trend is that American men are gravitating toward more violence within the games – as seen by a desire to watch harder hits in football and by increased attendance to mixed martial arts. "It has become an issue of hypermasculinity and the question needs to be asked, 'Why are men wrapping themselves up in their teams so much that they are losing sight of having a good time?' It's no longer a family environment at some of these arenas."
Others say fan violence at sports events is an outgrowth of American society itself.
"We see it daily in popular culture, advertising, film, and sports: The big car crash, blood, sex, and gore get people's attention. We have seen so much of this in American culture that people have become desensitized to violence," says Mark Tatge, professor of journalism at DePauw University's Center for Contemporary Media.
"The John-Wayne tough-guy never-back down mentality has taken over America again," says Drexel's Mr. Williams. "Americans have learned from the age of infancy that that's who we are and what we look up to. Look what just happened in Washington with the debt-ceiling debate. Neither party wanted to back down, so the US lost its triple-A bond rating for the first time in history."

Remembering his father's dying words, that Fero never let the white man enslave his people, Fero led the slaves in a revolt against their oppressors.Fleeing the mines, Fero and his followers stole a Spanish galleon, only to lose his crew and the ship in a storm. Drifting alone on the high seas for days, Fero was at last picked up by an Oriental pirate ship. Abused and taunted, Fero challenged the captain for control of the ship and, after a fierce battle killed him.When asked his name by the crewmen, Fero told them to call him Captain Fear, for fear was what he intended to put into the hearts of every Spaniard he might meet.The first Captain Fear was kidnapped by Black Manta. Anthro, I .. Vampire, Genius Jones, Infectious Lass, the ghost of Jeb Stuart, and Count Julius from the Primate Patrol are in pursuit to rescue their fellow team member. They were trying to justify their existence to the Architects. They have seemed to have survived and not perished with the latest Crisis.There has been a new Captain Fear that has battled members of the Outsiders.

Plexus Slim
Drink your way thin with this powdered mix.
- Established: 2005
- Founder: David Brown
- Headquarters: Scottsdale, Arizona
- Accessibility: Online or through a representative
- Diet Type: Diet supplement drink mix
- Gender: Male and female
Plexus Slim is a powdered dietary supplement that is mixed with water to help you burn calories and fat while on the go. It contains no caffeine or stimulants and is meant to be used in conjunction with a regular diet plan.
Plexus Slim also claims to help you obtain healthy blood sugar, cholesterol and lipid levels and is considered safe for those with diabetes.
To take this supplement you simply pour it into a bottle of water 30 minutes before a meal and drink.
The products' two plant extract concentrates - chloregenic acid and oxypregnane steroid glycoside - work to provide effective "slimming and beauty benefits" thanks to antioxidants that are reportedly twice as potent as those found in dark chocolate.
Studies have also shown the caffein acid in chlorogenic acid contains high antioxidant levels that help limit the oxidation of lipids in the liver. And the oxypregnane steroidal glycoside helps with appetite control because it sends signals to the brain to tell the body it's full.
Plexus Slim claims the effectiveness of its product has been clinically proven. A 30-day supply of costs $84.95, but preferred customers - those who agree to receive a monthly recurring auto-shipment - pay $79.95.
Ingredients include: Chloregenic acid (plant extract), citrin K, alpha lipoid acid, oxypregnane steroidal, polydestrose, citric acid, natural flavors, beet root and grape skin extract, stevia extract and lo han extract.
Makers of Plexus Slim say users can expect to see results in as little as two weeks.PRO
- Contains no stimulants
- Claims to be safe for diabetics
- Contains natural ingredients
- Can be conveniently mixed with water
- May help to jump-start a weight loss plan
- Can be a bit expensive compared to similar products
- Must buy a 30-day supply to get free sample
- Diet and exercise are mentioned, but not heavily incorporated with Plexus Slim
- Not a long-term solution to weight loss
- Weight loss claims are likely exaggerated
- Natural does not always mean safe
- Chlorogenic acids
- Oxypregnane steroidal glycoside
- Low Glycemic Index Fructose
- Soy Lecithin
- Beet Root
- Stevia
- Lo Han Fruit
- Grape Skin
- Carmine
- Rosmarinic Acid
- Hydroxcycinnamic Acid
Pour into a 12-ounce glass or bottle of water and drink 30 minutes before a meal. Plexus Slim should be consumed only one time throughout the day.DIET and EXERCISE
Changing your eating habits is recommended for optimal results with Plexus Slim. The product contains natural appetite suppressants, and basically you are told to listen to your body. Ordering smaller meals at restaurants and eating smaller portions is the extent of the dieting advice.
For exercise, you don't have to incorporate any exercise to see results. It is mentioned that if you incorporate 20-30 minutes of exercise each day, your results will be seen a lot faster.CONCLUSION
Losing weight can mean different things to different people. Some people desire to lose five or ten pounds while others have much larger amounts to lose. Using Plexus Slim might be a great added boost to help you reach your goals. While it gets bonus points for its convenient powdered mix which can be easily added to any bottle of water for a quick appetite suppressant and its natural ingredients, Plexus Slim is not a long-term solution weight and its all-natural ingredients may not equate to being safe for your health.
Talk to your doctor before using this product, particularly if you have diabetes.Common Misspellings

Is all the remarkable product remarks from distributors. Claims are over exeturated. No pill no powder drink nothing will cause weight loss except eating less than what you burn in calories. Yes I really wish there was an easy way; there isn't. And to those of you claiming tremendous weight losses which I doubt to be true are you going to take forever. That could get pricey given ps is almost 90.00.
the truth is nothing works for everyone...i am a health care practitioner..i am very familiar with this product... it worked extremely well for my wife...lost 17lbs and went from a size 10 to a 4....my co-worker and friend reported his blood glucose levels are much better and he feels great..i also have a co-worker who has not loss anything..bottom line...if it works for you, keep taking it and if it doesn't move on to what works...and the main reason people sell it is to get it at cost...so if you like it sell it...if you dont..try something new
Plexus Slim is the most amazing product. It has helped so many diabetics to control their sugar levels and it is an affordable weight loss product.
Took plexus slim, the accelerator, and bio-cleanse at a cost of $180.00. Lost one pound in 21 days. I should have known better, but unfortunately, I fell for the scam. Pharmacies, TV commercials and MLM markets are full of this sort of stuff. Now I am finding Citrin K may be linked to liver damage. No thank you.
awesome results in just 3 weeks..... no change in normal routine!
Just started taking mix and accelerator. Iam having heartburn like crazy. Is this normal? Thought that it may be something in the accelerator. Any suggestions?
I've been drinking this product with water since April 19. I've lost 19 pounds in 2 1/2 months with no lifestyle change. It simply suppresses my appetite and reduces cravings. My husband started about 2 weeks after me, and he has lost 15 pounds. His blood pressure was 210/100 ON MEDICATION...now it's 117/68. He has had no other lifestyle changes either, or change in medication. We're still trying to figure out if it can be because of Plexus Slim.
A coworker tried to sell this stuff in the office. Fortunately company policy forbid it. She posted on social network of her tremendous weight loss and doctored up photo. Truth is the weight loss was 12 pounds in 13 weeks at a cost of over 300.00. Believe what you want. Weight losses are mostly exaggerated from those selling and making money.
The posts indicate the ones losing the weight are the same ones selling this stuff through pyramid MLM. Did some research & found:
�?�Chromium may help control blood glucose levels to stop hunger.
�?�A free sample is available.
�?�Citrin K may be linked to liver damage.
�?�Only one proven ingredient is included in the supplement.
Plexus Slim is a powdered drink packet that adds weight loss ingredients to a bottle of water. The dieter may find the chromium helps to stave off hunger, but the remaining ingredients are not likely to promote weight loss.
It seems that most of the people that have so many great things to say about this product are the ones selling it. It's nothing more than a pyramid scheme. It did make me piss more than normal, but that might have something to do with the product itself tasting like urine.
Are all the positive reviews of this product made by people trying to sell it? It seems to me that most of the people that have so many good things to say about this product are the ones out there trying to sell it.
I started as a complete skeptic. After my first 3 days I didn't have "scale" results but could see a difference. After 7 days I had lost 5 lbs, in a month I lost 15 lbs and 3 pant sizes, felt better in general and didn't change a thing consciously about my eating habits or daily activity. Yes, I became an ambassador after seeing with my own eyes, myself and the many people around here who have done it and lost LOTS of weight and MANY inches. so why not sell it (if only to myself) and get it at wholesale prices. Not to mention I am just VERY excited about the all around health benefits of drinking this drink for diabetics or people fighting high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I have had a few people complain about the way they felt while doing it, but after recommending they do only the drink and not the accelerator they LOVED it too!!
My husband and I both started taking Plexusslim on March 6th. We take both the accelerator and the slim packets. I have lost 30lbs and feel great. My husband has lost 45lbs. This product helps give you the will power to overcome your cravings for food and the hunger. We have been able to make smarter food choices which will only benefit our health. My husband is a diabetic and has had high blood pressure. He no longer has to take his meds for these health problems. I think this diet suppliment program is great. Have a positive attitute and expect great results. I have taken the pro bio 5 not because I have a yeast problem but for the other benefits.
Plexus Slim is no different from the hundreds of other weight loss products on the market. Here is an article you may want to review before considering any kind of miraculous weight loss product:
You can market it anyway you want, but truth is the only way to lose weight is to burn more calories than consumed. I did not lose weight until I faced that hard fact. Took me eight months to lose 45 pounds, but I did it by changing lifestyle, not taking a "miracle" weight loss product. Sorry if this is not what you want to hear, but it is truths.
Took Plexus Slim for 30 days. Did not lose anything. I called the company who said I was not eligible for a refund. Needed to take it for two months. Yeah I lost nothing yet was told to buy 30 more days of product. Not going to happen. Plexus will run its course and fade out just like the hundreds of other "lose weight effortless" products.
I have been using the drink and the Accelerator for 6 weeks now and am down 18 pounds. I have not exercised at all. I HAVE changed the way I eat because of the Plexus Slim. It does exactly what it said it would do -- increased will-power over food, reduced (eliminated completely) binge eating, and I'm assuming it has helped balance my blood sugar levels, due to the lack of cravings for sugar. After one month on it, yes, I signed up to sell it. Why should somebody else earn money every time I talk about how much I like it?
Was given a sample pack Thursday at a booth of the powder to try. Poured the packet, Friday, into a small glass to drink as a shot, since I heard the powder tasted gross. It is rather sweet and has a bitter aftertaste. I drank 12 oz. of water afterward to wash down the taste. I ate normally and only got on my treadmill for 5 minutes yesterday. Lost 2.5 lbs. overnight!!! I have about 50 I need to lose. I just ordered the 7 day trial pack of the powder and accelerator. Will let you know how 7 days work out.
My friend has lost 10 lbs. in a week and a half. Her boyfriend has lost 15 lbs. in 3 weeks. They both love it and they didn't have to change anything about their lifestyle to do it. I would use it too if I needed to lose. I'm thinking about selling it just because I see it works so great!!
I, too, tried this "miraculous" weight loss product,. Took the product exactly as directed for two months including the accelerator. I lost nothing, In fact, I gained four pounds. I tried to get a refund and was refused. Calls to the distributor were never returned. The guarantee and the product are worthless.
I took Plexus Slim for two months and lost nothing other than the $240.00 I paid for the product. Total waste of my money. When I tried to get a refund, the company would not honor the guarantee.

I guess we're dealing with Andy Reid's final home game as an Eagle... This doesn't make me happy. Yes, I know Andy's time has come and gone. He's brought me more good than bad, but we all know his tenure as head coach of this franchise has burned out like a candle in the wind. So what now? Welp, we play out the schedule. There's no getting around that. Sure, we could "legally" forfeit both of our remaining two games in 2012 to secure a better draft position...but that's not going to happen. This is Andy Reid's final episode of "A Football Life in Philly"...and for Andy's sake, I hope it ends up with Big Red's getting rewarded with a final shot of team cohesion and confidence. Of course we're talking about a team that's badly broken going into this game already... I just hope the signs in the stands say "Thank you, Andy, for 14 years of Pretty Good"... You have to admit, he had us in the playoffs mix for a long time. He's lost his Midas touch here forever. ...
