The Bauer Vapor XR4 Roller Hockey Skates offer some higher end features at a mid level price point. The XR 4 comes with indoor Labeda wheels and faster ABEC 9 bearings compared to the XR3. The quarter package used is a durable sublimated woven nylon. Bauer utilized a Hydrophobic microfiber liner and a 2-piece felt tongue to comfortably lock the foot in place.
On the XR4 liner, Bauer incorporated a Hydrophobic microfiber material to decrease odor and keep your feet dry. The tongue on the XR 4 is a comfortable 2 piece felt with metatarsal guard. This guard prevents lace bite and helps cushion impacts. The XR4 provides a great value for an intermediate to advanced player.

Comments: I have had these skates for around 2 monthes now and I must say, these skates are GREAT! The overall feel of the skate is superior to any other inline skat I have ever owned (Tour, Mission, Bauer XR2). The ABEC 9 bearings that your Lebeda roll on are VERY impressive for the price of the skates. It has a VERY strong Aluminum Chasis. The X-Soft Labeda wheels that come on the skates are far more impress than any other wheels in this price range. Cant wait to roll on these skates when i upgrade to Bones Swiss bearings. Bauer did a very nice job with this skate.
Sturdy Design
Great Material
Solid Chassis
Great Wheels and Bearings
Fantastic Feel
Good Responsive Skate
Great Fit (For Me)
CONS: Not much padding (still very comfortable though)
From: Andy, IN
Comments: By far the best skates i have ever used! The boots gave me blisters at first but once i broke them in they were perfect! if you buy these online i would highly recommend getting them heat fitted at your local shop. The wheels and bearings were alright but i prefer Revision wheels over Lebada any day. I switch the wheels out for some Revision variant pluses and the bearings for some bones super reds for the perfect combination of speed and grip!
From: Tyler, PA
Comments: These are SUPERB skates for a high school roller hockey player like myself! I've had them for about 6 months and they still work like brand new.
-boot is incredibly durable and strong. I never feel shots to the feet anymore.
-wheels are perfect for indoor play, and I weigh ~150lbs.
-the bearings are smooth as glass (recommend lubing them every month or so with lube from IW and washing them every few months with Sonic Citrus bearing cleaner also from IW)
-laces are strong; no fraying or tearing or any visible wear so far
-very responsive skates; you can stop very fast and turn on a dime
only CON (and this is minor) is the padding inside the boot is minimal compared to most skates of the same level
I replaced the factory insoles with Superfeet insoles, so I can't comment on the insoles.
***If you can, go to a hockey pro shop and try these on to find the perfect size for you. Try to get the tightest fit you can handle that doesn't hurt your foot. As you break in the skate, the boot will start to mold to your foot for a wonderfully snug fit.
From: MC Roller Hawks, GA
Comments: Great skates, i loved them the first time i used them. i would reccomend these skates to anyone looking for a new pair o inline skates.
From: Anthony, Gold Coast, Australia
Comments: The skates are good light and come with some pretty decent wheels and bearings out of
the box. Playing on sport court I got about 12 weeks out of the wheels before they
started to crack and chunk up ( I am about 190lbs). The bearings are smooth and quick
as long as you maintance them properly. Overall this is a good skate for any rec league
and even for advance level of play.
From: Brian, CO
Comments: These are very, very similar to the RX25's. Great skate for you bauer vapor fans out there. Quick break-in period, I did bake mine before using though. My only two criticisms are that the skate is slightly heavy and that the tongue is very thin. The bearing and wheels are quality as well. For the price, these skates are well worth it. But, if you have a larger budget - go with the XR5 or XRpremiers.
From: Joe, Pittsburgh, PA
Comments: These skates ride so smooth it is sweet i recomend this skate for any intermidiet skater
From: Andrew
Comments: Just got my Bauer XR4's and love them already!!!! I did the heat mold as instructed in the user manual and they fit like a glove! They are so light and easily manueverable. Coming from Tour Thor LX5 skates, these Bauer's make skating so much easier and enjoyable! They are worth every penny you pay for them! Seriously consider buying these for someone who wants a great skate at not a steep price!
From: JON, PA
Comments: Let me first premise this review by saying that the last pair of skates I've bought were Bauer 3000 supremes with the Tuuk Shifter 2 frames. I loved those skates and wore them for the last 12 years through competitive travel leagues and adult beer leagues! (they don't make em like they used to)Unfortunately, I had to retire them recently. With that said, I couldn't warrant paying more than $300 for a pair of skates. I have to say at this price point, the XR4s are worth it. Easy break in, and played a full game and pretty much forgot they were on. Light as a feather, comfortable and really responsive when shifting weight. I would highly recommend these to any intermediate or advanced player on a budget.
From: Mardee, CA
Comments: Great skates! I have had them for about 2 years and they are
still in great shape. Very comfortable and easy to break in. the Wheels
are good at first but they wear down easily and lose grip. I would
definitely recommend these skates to a friend.
From: Sandy, Centennial, CO, USA

text: UPDATED 06:36 19th June 2014 Lukasz Fabianski became the first summer signing in May 2014 after he joined on a free transfer from Arsenal. The Polish international signed a four-year deal with the club to become Garry Monk's first signing since taking over officially as manager. Fabianski ended a seven-year spell with Arsenal, having played his last game in the FA Cup final win over Hull City at Wembley. Voted Poland's best top-flight keeper in each season during his two-year spell at Legia Warsaw before a £2million move to the Gunners in 2007, Fabianski spent the majority of his time at The Emirates as an understudy. But he signed off on a winning note as his penalty-shootout heroics helped Arsenal to the FA Cup final after a tense semi-final clash with Wigan. Arsene Wenger again included him in his starting XI as the Gunners ended a nine-year wait for a trophy after beating Hull in a dramatic final. On top of domestic duties, Fabianski also managed 14 appearances in the Champions League under Wenger, with his most recent coming in the 1-1 draw at Bayern Munich – in which he saved a penalty - in March 2014 as Arsenal bowed out in the last 16 stage.

Q: How will my product be shipped?
A: Most items are shipped by small parcel carriers like FedEx or UPS. The larger kits will arrive in multiple boxes from a single carrier.
Q: Why when I open the cans/pails, are some only partially filled?
A: With some products, settling occurs and is expected. Cans/pails are sold by weight and not by volume for that reason.
Q: Where should I store my product?
A: Product is best when stored in a cool, dry place at temperatures between 55˚F and 70˚F (ideal humidity 15%). Once product is open, please ensure the lid is secure when storing and use within the guidelines.
Q: Does heat or cold affect the shelf life of the product?
A: Heat shortens the storage life of any food – the cooler the storage, the longer the storage life.
Q: How do I compare "servings per can/pail" to product weight?
A: The truth is you cannot. Our serving sizes and number of servings per can/pail are set with respect to government guidelines on food nutrition and recipe requirements for each product. You will find some recipe creations may require multiple servings of specific products to create the recipe. When reviewing food storage kits, a good comparison is based upon number of persons, calories per day, length of time and calculating the total number of meals possible. For example: 1 person, 1 year (3 meals per day, 365 days = 1,095 total meals), 1,700 calories per day.
Q: If a can gets dented, does it affect the quality of the product?
A: Small dents may occur from shipping, and this is normal. They do not pose a problem, provided the seal has not been broken at top or bottom of the can. If the seal has been broken at the top or bottom of the can, please contact Sam's Club Customer Service to resolve the issue: 1.888.746.7726. Dents should not occur during shipping with the pails.
Q: Are the cans/pails marked with "use by" dates?
A: Cans/pails are marked with a production date called a Julian date. For example, 12022 means the can/pail was produced in 2012 on the 22nd day (January 22). Each can/pail is also marked with the expected storage life.

335xi, 911, AP1, BMW, carrera, cars, dreams, e30, e92, girl, honda, hope, inspiration, iPhone, M3, Mazda, Miata, photography, Photos, Porsche, reflection, S2000
I know the first of December isn't until Saturday, but I'm super excited for it. It is finally the tail end of being alone, as well as the tail end of 2012, a crazy year.
Taryn over at iheartstance has a really great post up that I think everyone needs to read. For me, it made me think….. And what follows is a few of these thoughts.
For one, I can sympathize greatly with the sale of her Miata and the closing of a chapter like that. Earlier this year I sold my own Miata, as well as my 240sx. It was the end of a story, and in many cases letting go of some dreams and knowing that not everything I want to do will be possible or make sense to do.
I'm thankful that I can say I don't regret the choice, and I have absolutely no desire to own either of those two again. It's been a while and I still don't have the reason I sold them yet, but I hope to soon….
Funny enough, I also said goodbye to a brief period with the 2011 STi we had. It wasn't the STi herself, she was great….. It was definitely us. We didn't like the community, both of Subarus and what "imports" have become in general. That meant that, of the four cars we started 2012 with, we said goodbye to three.
Thankfully, we said hello to our BMW 335xi, and I LOVE her. After we bring the 911 home, I dare say it'll feel complete…. Having those two, and the car I will NEVER get rid of, my S2000.
Speaking of the S, she kinda got spoiled this year. She got some goodies, and the tires she got were chewed up on the track in October amidst great fun. Yup, she does need new tires already….. Lol. I'm hoping to get her back on the track next spring.
So how does this tie into Taryn's post? It's the journey aspect. Just as she can see how she's grown, so can I….. And where she decided to get into vintage Japanese, I'm going a different route….
To classic European, as well as modern day European sports cars & the exotics.
To me, this is what I love and am drawn to. This is where I feel I fit in best. This is where I wanted to be and this is where I'm standing at the edge of becoming a true part of it.
In January, I will be officially kicking off the search for what will be MY Porsche 911. My FIRST Porsche 911. And I say that with great confidence, knowing that there will be others.
Just as Taryn had to sell her Miata to continue with her beautiful S30 Z project, so too did I part ways in order to make this a reality. I had to sell the cars, and then I have all but said adios to the "import" community.
I do hold exceptions to what I like in Japanese cars especially, though. I will always love the classic vintage Japanese cars. As I said before, I will NEVER sell my S2000…. She finally gets to start her journey to becoming a track car. But, as a whole, I don't belong there. I don't think I ever belonged there, really….
But I know where I do belong. And I feel welcome there and happy in that world. I have a subscription to Hemming's Sports & Exotic Car magazine, so that I can learn more about all classics and exotics. In 2013, I plan to visit more places and meet more people and really enjoy what these cars, and especially their owners and caretakers, have to offer.
I'm excited to dig deeper into this world. And the first step is undoubtedly finding my 911. And that's why I'm glad it's December. That will be soon. It's close and not too far away…..
Basically, I've been thinking of my own journey a lot. 2012 was a big growing year….. And I know there will be big things in 2013. And I can't wait for that.

DOBSON — Local law enforcement officials have met with District Attorney Ricky Bowman, who will draft a uniform policy of enforcement of video sweepstakes halls in the 17B Judicial District. This could arrive as early as next week.
Many law enforcement agencies across the state on Thursday planned to start enforcing a state Supreme Court decision upholding a ban on video sweepstakes machines. But operators said they'll respond by changing the machines in ways that escape the ban and keep attracting players without much delay.
"We are performing upgrade of games according to the statute of NC," a sign on the Raleigh shop called Jackpot Sweepstakes informed customers. The shop closed late Wednesday and promised to reopen yesterday.
Previously, local law enforcement and video sweepstakes hall owners appeared to take a wait-and-see attitude until the attorney general's office issued some guidelines in the wake of recent state supreme court action upholding a state law declaring such businesses as gambling operations.
"Law enforcement officials from throughout the district have met with the district attorney," said Surry County Sheriff Graham Atkinson. "We have shared our views with him and his office could issue guidelines on enforcement. We did this because we want to be consistent throughout Judicial District 17B."
In late December, the Associated Press reported the North Carolina Supreme Court had ruled against a request by the industry to delay enforcement of the law while the businesses appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The request for the delay asked that the law not be enforced until learning if the U.S. Supreme Court would consider its claim of free speech protections. Last year, the court ruled video games, like books and films, are protected by the First Amendment.
At that time, Mount Airy Police Chief Dale Watson explained any enforcement operations would be run in cooperation with the state division of alcohol enforcement. Watson and many other officials in late December voiced the opinion the attorney general's directions would determine the appropriate ways to respond to the legislation.
Sweepstakes halls have cropped up because of what state Supreme Court justices called a loophole since the state outlawed video poker machines in 2007.
Watson explained sweepstakes parlor or hall patrons buy Internet or phone time which gives them an opportunity to uncover potential cash and prizes with mouse clicks on a computer screen.
According to AP reports, thousands of sweepstakes hall employees may lose their jobs as the industry fights for its future in court, industry spokesmen said. The U.S. Supreme Court last week rejected the industry's request to block state enforcement while businesses appealed to the country's highest court, a step expected by mid-March.
"Probably 90 percent of the operators will close down voluntarily," said Brad Crone, a spokesman for the Internet Based Sweepstakes Operators. "Some operators may be looking at new software and new gaming options that will more than likely have to be tested in a series of new court cases."
Gov.-elect Pat McCrory said Thursday the ban will be revisited somehow "because of all the legal maneuvering and interpretations" by the industry. McCrory said he also would speak with legislative leaders soon about the issue.
Greg Oneal, manager of Shatter's Cafe in Mount Airy, was typical of the local business owners still waiting on the possible impact of the legislation.
"It's going to put a large number of people out of work," predicted Oneal. "We pay taxes just like any other business and I cannot understand the loss of revenue on the part of the state whether you love us or hate us. My feeling is tax us and make it legal, let our revenue go to help local schools. I'm betting a larger share of that will benefit our schools than what comes from the state lottery."
Recent action caps a virtual decade of legislative efforts trying to eliminate video gaming machines and sweepstakes. A bipartisan effort failed this summer on regulation allowing state access privilege taxes on the sweepstakes establishments and terminals, although some cities have taxing authority on the businesses.

Bryan Police say a U-HAUL pick-up truck crashed head-on into two other vehicles just after 7 a.m. Thursday morning.
According to Bryan Police, officers responded to a call of a pick-up truck parked in the middle of the road on Kensington Road, around 7:07 Thursday morning. When officers arrived, they found the driver and passenger asleep. When officers woke them, the truck sped off.
Bryan PD says they positioned officers near the exit of the neighborhood and did not want to pursue the vehicle through the residential area.
The U-HAUL truck sped down Canterbury Drive, veering into on-coming traffic, hitting two vehicles head-on. One of those cars hit another vehicle.
The driver of the U-HAUL truck, 21-year-old Garrett Finke, and the passenger, 26-year-old Richard George were taken to St. Joseph's Regional Health Center in Bryan. Both were being treated for their injuries before being sent to the Brazos County Jail.
Another person in one of the other vehicles was taken to St. Joseph's for non-life threatening injuries.
Bryan Police determined that both Finke and George were under the influence of narcotics at the time. After a search of the vehicle, police found several tools that are commonly used for burglaries.
Finke, from Washington, TX, is being charged with evading police in a vehicle, driving while intoxicated, driving with an invalid license, unlawful use of a criminal instrument, and resisting arrest. George, from Willis, TX, is being arrested for unlawful use of a criminal instrument and public intoxication.
Officers had a section Canterbury Drive closed off while they investigated, but that road has since re-opened.
Sandy Farris, with Bryan Independent School District, says that a majority of students that attend Sam Houston Elementary School were already at school when the accident occurred. The school day is proceeding as scheduled.

I think MatchuM is a really good game that no one seems to have heard of. Snazzy, simple and quite addictive.
Flight Control deserved a spot on the poll, no?
Galaxy on Fire 2.
I find it interesting that all game included in this poll are the kind designed for short, casual doses of play, which is kind of the opposite of addictive, non-stop games.
Unfortunately, it is also this game focus that keeps the image of iOS gaming as casual, simplistic and limited alive.

Dana White doubts 'Bjork' Rebney runs Bellator
Morning Report: Renan Barao vindicates his interim title; Dana White doubts 'Bjork' Rebney runs Bellator - MMA Fighting
Continually referring to Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney as "Bjork" -- perhaps accidentally or perhaps mockingly -- White gleefully contrasted the success of the current season of The Ultimate Fighter to Bellator's campaign on Spike TV, before reiterating his frustration with the legal standstill that is the Eddie Alvarez situation.
"Understand guys, you're not dealing with Bellator," White stated. "Bellator doesn't even exist anymore. Do you think f--king Bjork is running f--king Bellator? Do you think Bjork is running Bellator? Do you really think that? There's no way in hell.
"Viacom is running that company. They're a multi-billion dollar f--king business.
"One of the most powerful media companies on Earth. What's the number they sit on? 5.5 billion in cash? 5.5 billion in cash. Break some off for f--king Eddie Alvarez and pay him what he deserves."
By now White was on a roll, and all he needed was the mere suggestion of Viacom utilizing its vast resources to not only preserve the services of Alvarez, but also use the trial as leverage to springboard Bellator into a comparable competitor to Zuffa's goliath.
"They better start," White shot back. "They're doing f--king 700,000 viewers and the numbers are dropping like f--king flies. They better start leveraging something quick. But they built the UFC. You know that, right? (Viacom President and CEO) Philippe Dauman said he built the UFC. Philippe Dauman is the pompous, arrogant guy who runs Viacom, who claims he built the UFC. Well whatever you did building the UFC, brother, you better f--king start doing it again because things aren't looking good over there."

Get up to speed quickly with the new features in After Effects CS6. Join veteran After Effects user Chris Meyer as he explores the key enhancements to this industry standard visual effects and motion graphics software. Chris shares creative ideas and important production advice while covering the strengths of features such as memory optimization with the new global performance cache, 3D motion tracking with the 3D Camera Tracker, and the new 3D rendering engine for ray-traced 3D rendering.
(music playing) Hi! I am Chris Meyer of Crish Design, and I'd like to show you how to take advantage of some of the most important new features included in After Effects CS6. Now, after they released CS5 the Adobe After Effects team actually split into two parts. One part of the team had 12 months to work on the new features that were included in CS5.5, such as improvements of 3D lights, some new menu commands for the camera, a new stereo camera rig, warp stabilizer, et cetera, while the other part of the team had 24 months to work on some really big futures that made their way into CS6.
Some of these features include the Global Performance Cache, which gives you some significant speed improvements by remembering work you've done previously, so you don't have to keep re-rendering your previews; a brand-new ray-traced 3D renderer that allows you to extrude and bevel objects which supports transparency and reflections; a new 3D camera tracker that allows you to track a piece of 2D footage and re-create where the camera was, as well as other objects in the scene; variable-width mask feathering; rolling shutter repair; and a bunch of other small but very nice new features, such as better integration with Mocha, more CycoreFX, et cetera.
Now my goal in this course is to help you get up to speed quickly with these new features and give you some ideas of how you might put them to use on your own projects. However, if you like, you can follow along with your own source material, or if you have a copy of our book, Creating Motion Graphics, 5th Edition, I'll be opening up a few compositions and using some source files out of those projects. Also, there are some cases where I need some new footage to show you some new features. I'll include that with the files you can download along with this course. But anyway, enough talking. Let's dive in and have some fun, because there is a lot of cool new stuff in this new release!
There are currently no FAQs about After Effects CS6 New Features.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – A heartbreaking 3-2 defeat at the hands of UNCG Friday night at Maclellan Gym is not the way the Mocs wanted to begin their two-match weekend going into fall break, but the exciting back-and-forth between the two Southern Conference foes kept the teams and fans on their toes the entire time.
"It is a tough loss but we battled hard," Head Coach Travis Filar said. "We rebounded really well after the first two sets and gave it all we had against a great Greensboro team."
Chattanooga appeared doomed in the first set, falling 25-11. UNCG jumped out to a 7-0 lead to begin the match, leading to a UTC timeout, and led the set by as many as 15 points twice. Despite the flat frame from the Mocs, UTC came out in the second set with a bit more energy. Chattanooga suffered a 25-16 loss in the second set but showed promise although entering the second half of the match down 2-0.
The Mocs shocked the Spartans 25-19 in the third and posted an almost identical 25-18 win on the fourth set. Chattanooga hit .188 in the second set, over .100 more than their entire match hitting percentage, and recorded their best percentage at .256 in the fourth set.
Leading the Mocs with 11 kills on the night, sophomore Sarah Batterton (Colbert, Wash.) managed four in the two winning sets. Fellow sophomore Briana Reid (Houston, Texas) finished second on the night with nine kills.
Despite coming back to tie the match 2-2 late, The Mocs were unable to pull off a second-straight home win, falling 15-8 in the deciding set. Batterton recorded three of the four kills produced in the fifth set – Reid came away with the other as the Spartans held UTC to a .000 hitting percentage in the final frame.
"We just have to come back tomorrow and get ready for Elon," Filar said after the match. "We showed a good effort tonight but we have to be better tomorrow."
The Mocs meet the Phoenix Saturday at 6 p.m. Live stats and video are available on the Mocs volleyball schedule page.

The NFL in 2043
Mucus is one of the most disgusting products the human body manufactures but it plays a pivotal role in our existence.
To make a long story short, without mucus we'd be dead (Ron Wolfley, reporting). One of the major functions of mucus is to protect against infectious agents such as fungi, bacteria and viruses. The average human body produces about a liter of mucus per day. (After fighting the Mongolian-Shanghai Surprise all week, this seems a little low to me).
Such an unpleasant topic to discuss, isn't it?
The NFL's concussion issue is like mucus: concussion-generating hits have been an integral part of the league's existence and nobody wants to talk about it. Playing the game of football generates concussions like breathing generates mucus. This is always going to be the case: play football, get concussions.
But why didn't we see Ray Nitschke show signs of CTE before he passed away from a heart attack at age 61? Why is Mike Ditka still going strong at 73? Why can Dick Butkus still speak? Why is Jack Lambert not suffering from the effects of concussions? Why did Jack Tatum not show signs of dementia before he died of a heart attack? Why is George Atkinson okay? These men played a brutal brand of football and all had long and storied careers.
Something changed: the helmet.
The first polycarbonate helmets arrived in the NFL in 1986. Space age rigid Polycarbonate alloy plastic helmets and vinyl coated steel alloy face masks were the norm in the 1980s and 1990s. These helmets were much heavier and hit like a sledgehammer.
It didn't take long; players realized they hit like a sledgehammer and started thinking of them as a sledgehammer. I know this because I wore one of these helmets and knew the best way to use it was to take the spot above my eyebrows and put it on the spot below my sworn enemy's lips. The combination of these helmets and the realization of what they could do to the opponent took head hunting to a whole new level.
And coaches applauded. Hitting your opponent in the game of football by "sticking your face in there" became the proverbial badge of honor, the true test of a football player's courage. And once players realized they could support their families by "sticking their faces in there" the triumvirate of trauma to the brain became the norm in football. All a hungry boy need do was to weaponize the polycarbonate helmet, destroy your opponent by "sticking your face in there," and the badge of honor that was placed on your person by coaches could be traded in for money.
Lambert never used the polycarbonate helmet. Ray Nitschke didn't think of the helmet as a weapon but a necessary safety device. Coaches in the sixties and seventies never taught players to go helmet-to-helmet or applauded their fearlessness for "sticking their face in there."
And this is why I disagree with Baltimore Ravens safety Bernard Pollard, who said this week that he didn't think the NFL would be around in 30 years.
The NFL will be around in thirty years (if we haven't nuked each other into eternity). Players are adjusting to the new rules and making concerted efforts to keep their helmets from becoming weapons. And coaches now understand performing well no longer requires "sticking your face in there." Helmets are improving, research and treatment of concussions are now taken seriously, drug testing has never been more aggressive (to get chemically induced bigger, stronger, and faster out of the game), training camps are relatively benign and practices are often more like walk-throughs.
The question isn't whether or not the NFL will be around in thirty years, but will it be as popular? The popularity of this sport is based on contact and collision. I wonder how fans will respond to a watered-down version of football carnage?
One thing is certain: the helmet will dictate what football looks like in 2043...provided players wear one.

I seldom talk to liberals.............................. But when I do, I order fries............
I've been watching this develop since Stan's first post and I could only hold out till Monday evening. Damn this addiction and free shipping to boot
Did I do that?
i dont have the finish coat on my receiver but it looks pretty damn impressive all put together with the spades on it....
Any tips or hints on de-slagging the receiver? Ive got most of it off, but there are tiny beads of the stuff inside the receiver, and im also having problems getting that crap out of the rails and grooves inside as well. Lastly, how clean should the cuts be? Do I grind them down until its all fresh clean metal or is that too much?
glad to hear your gonna get a day to shoot!
Geez, sure hate to hear that news. Hopefully it will be something easy for ya to fix. It's a real beauty !!!
Did I do that?

I've wanted to see good debate about the game for months but honestly between those who just hate it for being Star Wars and those who are so fanatical about liking it just because it is Star Wars, it has been pretty impossible to have talks about the game.
I truly wanted to love the game myself, other wise I'd not have bothered to purchase the $150.00 collectors edition nor two of the $80.00 versions for family members. There is just soo much wrong with this game mechanically speaking, graphically, UI, bug wise etc to shake a stick at. In my opinion their first serious error was purchasing the crappy HeroEngine software from Simutronics.
I'd love to see them get a handle on the bugs, make the worlds more life like, say like LotROs is. Space Combat for me is a write off since they really need to start from the begining and design a whole new space combat system. I don't think their current mechanics support it honestly. I don't think they built the infrastructure to support a true space mmorpg. So anything that they do do, is going to come off as rather bandaid like, if that makes sense.
Who knows, I'd love to be pleasantly surprised in six months to see this game go a long way from where it is currently. I just know that currently once my 90 days reoccuring sub ends in April, that I'll stop playing. I will keep tabs on it like I do every game that I've ever played, in the hope for improvement to draw me back. I'd been really wanting to invest my free time in a science fiction mmorpg as a good change of pace from fantasy for some years. I love fantasy worlds but a good scfi game world would be nice.

Anyway; I hope SWTOR does well and I wish the players all the fun they can muster in what is basically a single player game. As for me, I'll go back to playing a real mmorpg (Rift). And maybe in a couple of years I'll return to SWTOR like I have just done to the f2p STO and find it actually enjoyable as I'm now so finding STO.

One I am unsure of, its mostly the members taking the initiative on events and raids, this usually doesn't end well unless the guld leader drops off and one of the active members takes over for him. The third one is right in the middle of the two, the guild leader is a little inexperienced as the leader it seems. He has been a raiding guild officer many times out, but this is his first time being at the top, so we will see on that one.
And yes, we all know the story of the hardcore raiding guilds and how short lived they can be in ANY game. Point stands though, SWTOR does have them, it isnt all solo players and casuals.

the only thing swtor has going for it especially in regards to vs swg... is graphics and cutscenes.. thats literally it.
I would bet your one of these wow gamers that have never played something like daoc, swg, eq, or planetside and u seriously just dont know what your missing

Crafting??? I like to think of making a sandwich as an example. When you want sa good sandwich you head out on the journey to buy quality ingredients, make the perfect combo and enjoy. Today, you drive down to subway, tell them whay you want,pay and your done.

2: V.O'ers are not that costly, unless you have a high profile actor doing them. To my knowlage TOR doesnt.
3: just look at the game its so streamlined, not a whole lot of steping outside the box going on. With that cuts down on experimental costs.
The cost rumor is the only innovative feature of this MMO. Just throw this title aside for a second. If theres a rumor that a game costs 500 mil. That in itself will raise intrest in a game, even if thats the only thing you know about it. Back to tor theres no way they spent what is rumored on it. Its a bargin bin game, made as cheap as possible to fleice the mmo player base yet again.

Why would eastern influence make a game fail? I am eagerly anticipating the US release of ArcheAge. Looks to be very close to what Im looking for, I hope the execution is as well as the concept.

I was never a Star Wars fan until a few weeks ago I haven't even seen any of the movies until a buddy of mine came over and showed me episodes 1 and 2 and I thought those were horrible!
I played in the beta enjoyed how fluid the game was and wanted to give Bioware my money knowing they produce some quality games and that's why I bought the game when it went live. I was hesistant I didn't get the early start but I did enjoy the way they told the story. Sure it got old I played 2 characters to 50 and 2 well into the 30's and after seeing the same planets over and over it felt just like any other game at that point.
I had about 4 friends follow me into the game and we had fun but for what the game does right it also has things it does wrong and I know it's Biowares first MMO and I really do hope for the die hard fans out there they fix some of the issues. The one thing I don't understand is why people are "accepting" the issues the game has you're paying money for the company to keep the game going you need to voice your concerns on issues over and over again.
I played the game for 2 months, but I played it knowing it felt more to me like a multiplayer RPG and not an MMO. The game isn't terrible by todays standards at all (although some of the bugs are insane like I still don't believe they fixed looting in normal mode operations). I feel that they will eventually get some of the things that are wrong right but I also feel it may take them to long to fix it and I also feel that some of the things they just won't be able to fix like the space combat system.
To everyone who enjoys the game keep on enjoying it but don't blindly defend the game because you don't like when people have/had issues with it. Voice your concerns and help make the game better, you pay money to play the game and you should have a better experience with less bugs!

I'm sorry, but how do you consider it to be a success this soon? I've been waiting for this game to launch for three years and to be completely honest at this point I'm really disapointed. I may be guilty of having expectations that were too high, but the BioWare/LA isn't completely off the hook IMO.
My first character was a Marauder that has seen everything but HM Soa. It's a fun character to play, when I'm in an Operation, but outside of that there is nothing fun/unique to do. I've since made several alts, 41 Sniper, 32 Operative, 28 Assassin, 21 Powertech and 19 Mercenary. I lost interest in the storyline on my Marauder in the early 40's, the only quests I actually listened to were the class quests. On my Sniper I lost interest before even earning access to my ship.
IMO, they spent too much time on the voice acting and not enough time on the actual interface, mechanics or items. The UI, from a mechanical standpoint is too clumsy and counterproductive. Only being able to have two panes open at any given time is about as agrivating as it gets in a game. Having one window disapear when you speak with a vendor is frustrating. The Market Place's "required" tabs is ridiculous when I just want to work for one specific thing. I'm happy they atleast fixed autosort in the banks.
Game mechanics are still broken. On my Marauder, it's always fun hitting Smash, watching the CD reset and the Rage be removed only to be knocked back 1.5 seconds later and have the effect actually happen 20meters from where I pressed it. On my Sniper, I love keeping the high ground in Huttball, only to have Take Cover jump me down to the bottom level and STILL not have LOS on my target. The Take Cover mechanic in theory is a cool idea, but considering I have my own cover item, STOP making my character hop 30m to take cover behind a sandbag. There are dozens of broken, overthought(or under-thought) mechanics that need to be fixed.
Too many load screens. I understand the idea behind having to get on an elevator to get to your ship at a city, but having to get on an elevator, run down a corridor, get in another elevator, run 50m to your ship only to have yet another load screen is ridiculous. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt with the load times. I just hope they fix the memory leaks.
The only reason I'm still playing is because I'm sick and tired of WoW and I paid for 6 months. At the rate they're going with bug and mechanics fixes, 6 months isn't enough time for them to keep my subscription money coming.
I'm already looking forward to Titan and GW2 next.

I wouldn't call SWTOR an obvious success. It's initially a success in that it sold a lot of copies, but the success of an MMO depends entirely on whether there is retention, and since SWTOR has only been out for a little over a month, it's too soon to call it a success. From my own personal view, the servers are a lot less active on key play nights (Friday and Saturday nights, weekend days), with more than 75% hovering around Standard pop during those times. It's a far cry from the Heavy a nd Full I've seen from the first two weeks. The "new" servers? Never saw them above Light. I suspect SWTOR will drop to ~200k active subs come month 3 and never get any higher than that. Successful for most MMOs, sure, but not one that cost $200 million and needing 1 million active subs for a couple of years to break even.
I make spreadsheets at work - I don't want to make them for the games I play.

I can't call it a success because I can still barely believe those numbers, any chatbox I go most people have played SW:TOR and then quit, even my real friends have and people still playing complain servers feel empty. I don't know how they could have retained 1.7m of 2m. I've probably almost talked to 300k who dropped it.

I don't really think you can label an MMORPG as an "obvious success" until it passes the test of time. SWTOR was clearly intended to bring in subscriber revenue for a longish time period. If it wasn't, it would have been easier to just make a single player game.
So even if the game makes back its investment...I don't think you can really call it a success until it succeeds in its original intent of bringing in long-term sub revenue.
Are you team Azeroth, team Tyria, or team Jacob?

Guide to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of conditions from A to Z.
The following are the latest statistics available from the National Institute of Mental Health Disorders, part of the National Institutes of Health:
Mental health disorders account for several of the top causes of disability in established market economies, such as the U.S., worldwide, and include: major depression (also called clinical depression), manic depression (also called bipolar disorder), schizophrenia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
An estimated 26% of Americans ages 18 and older -- about 1 in 4 adults -- suffers from a diagnosable mental disorder in a given year.
Many people suffer from more than one mental disorder at a given time. In particular, depressive illnesses tend to co-occur with substance abuse and anxiety disorders.
Approximately 9.5% of American adults ages 18 and over, will suffer from a depressive illness (major depression, bipolar disorder, or dysthymia) each year.
Women are nearly twice as likely to suffer from major depression than men. However, men and women are equally likely to develop bipolar disorder.
While major depression can develop at any age, the average age at onset is the mid-20s.
With bipolar disorder, which affects approximately 2.6% of Americans age 18 and older in a given year -- the average age at onset for a first manic episode is during the early 20s.
Most people who commit suicide have a diagnosable mental disorder -- most commonly a depressive disorder or a substance abuse disorder.
Four times as many men than women commit suicide. However, women attempt suicide more often than men.
The highest suicide rates in the U.S. are found in Caucasian men over age 85. However, suicide is also one of the leading causes of death in adolescents and adults ages 15 to 24.
Approximately 1% of Americans are affected by schizophrenia.
In most cases, schizophrenia first appears in men during their late teens or early 20s. In women, schizophrenia often first appears during their 20s or early 30s.
Approximately about 18% of people ages 18- 54 in a given year, have an anxiety disorder in a given year. Anxiety disorders include: panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), and phobias (social phobia, agoraphobia, and specific phobia).
Panic disorder typically develops in late adolescence or early adulthood.
The first symptoms of OCD often begin during childhood or adolescence.
GAD can begin at any time, though the risk is highest between childhood and middle age.
Individuals with OCD frequently can have problems with substance abuse or depressive or eating disorders.
Social phobia typically begins in childhood or adolescence.

I want factory unlocked ! :D
Poll: If iPhone 5 gets a new US carrier, should it be T-Mobile or Sprint?
With rumors of iPhone 5 potentially adding a third US carrier, would you rather that carrier be T-Mobile or Sprint?
T-Mobile is GSM like AT&T but would require different, AWS bands for 3G. They also offer "4G" over HSPA+, which iPhone 5 just might support. However, AT&T is trying to buy them, so they might get the iPhone that way sooner or later. Sprint is CDMA like Verizon but would need access to their network. They also offer "4G" over Wimax, which Apple will probably never support because LTE will be a much bigger, more global technology. (See our wireless networking glossary for what all those letters mean.)
If you could have only one for iPhone 5, T-Mobile or Sprint, which would it be?

Poll: If iPhone 5 gets a new US carrier, should it be T-Mobile or Sprint?
I've been with T-Mobile U.S. for years (with my iPhone) and have to say that their customer service has been STELLAR. It's the best customer service I've had (and I've been with PacBell, Cingular, AT&T, and T-Mobile).
I'm already using the iPhone on T-Mobile right now.
Stupid buttons, meant to reply only.
Get her an unsubsidized iPhone and the cheaper data plan that only has 100MB of "4G" data and unlimited 2G data. The data is slow but if she wants an iPhone that badly then the data speeds probably aren't a primary concern. As pointed out above, there are people that do this already.
The frequencies don't match
Since T-Mobile is being absorbed by AT&T, they are technically getting it anyway. So Sprint makes the most sense to move to.
It should be on both. The iPhone should've been on all carriers since it's inception. Exclusivity like the iPhone had with AT&T is illegal in other countries. It's ridiculous and dwarfs sales. Limiting the consumer to one, bad carrier is a terrible decision. PlayStation did it again by choosing AT&T. There are many people who want the iPhone, but refuse to be locked into a carrier that they don't want. This argument is tired and shouldn't exist anymore. It's nothing but nonsense and frustration for the customers (or potential customers), especially since iOS has finally joined the world of modern mobile OSes.
Apple tried other carriers with the iPhone before it launched AT&T was the only us carrier that would give them a chance sprint tmobile and Verizon turned them down that's why AT&T locked them in for 4 years and now every carrier wants the iPhone because of the success it has brought AT&T and now Verizon
Apple has already turned down those rumors. They wanted GSM all the way.
The best thing would be an unlocked iPhone which we may see on Wednesday. I hope so.
I say t-mobile for the global aspect, but really it should be on both.
As crazy as this sounds I don't think that T-Mobile deserves any profit from the iPhone. Their only goal in commercials now are to make the iPhone look bad. At first they said things like iPhone with AT&T is too slow. Then Apple added verizon but T-Mobile still said the iPhone was slow with AT&T as if it was the only choice. And it's not even their commercial idea, they just took the idea from Apple. I say they add sprint and let T-mobile suffer because I don't think there is a carrier on the planet that wouldn't want to gain from the iPhone's profit.
They added a commercial with Verizon in it.
Ok my bad. But truthfully that just makes it worse. What will they say if sprint gets on the iPhone? Will they say everyone else is slower. My point is is that they think they are top dog because they have 4G on a phone, when the phone itself is nowhere close to as functional as the phone they are making look bad. Sprint is a great choice, not T-Mobile.
I think both. There should be an option for that on the poll :P
it should depend on whether or not the merger goes through. i think you guys should have added more options or re-worded the question
Sprint is the easiest one. That's just a simple reprogramming, no extra manufacturing costs.
GSM > CDMA. Though, it would be good to see sprint get in on the love.

Chocolate! Yes, our favourite fattening holiday (aside from all the others) has arrived, and we're in a happy mood.
Notice how I didn't say 'hoppy'.
We've always made sure that no holiday goes unturned, but this time around, we've got two surprises for you.
First off is a daily special. Since yesterday we have been releasing a daily bunch of Chart and Pre Order CDs deals, from Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' to (insert one of Thursday's special awesome CDs here).
Yeah, apparently I can't tell the future very well. So you'll just have to check in each day to see what we've got lined up for you.
Click here to find out our daily deals this week.
But wait, there's more!
Like all Easter traditions, it's important to restore a bit of childhood excitement. I always loved hunting for Easter eggs. Our backyard was big, but the stress the Easter Bunny had about hungry ants sniffing out chocolate meant the eggs were hidden adequately, unable to be missed.
If you don't have a backyard, or you don't have the time to hide them anymore, why not endulge in our own Easter Egg Hunt?
Find a golden egg on our website, and grab a £1 voucher to be used at CD WOW!. Find another one? Then looky here! That's another voucher!
We've…I mean the Easter Bunny, has hidden five eggs around our site, and for those able to find our five eggs can scramble a hidden word to win a £300 CD WOW! voucher!
Visit our Easter Egg Hunt page here.
What're you waiting for? Hop to it! (ACK! I used a holiday pun. No taste at all, Doogs)

AUSTIN (November 12, 2012)—Texan Lance Armstrong has cut formal ties with his cancer-fighting charity to avoid further damage from the doping charges that cost him his seven Tour de France titles.
Armstrong resigned from the board of directors for Livestrong on Nov. 4 after resigning in October as chairman of the charity he founded.]
The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency ordered Armstrong banned from the sport for life and stripped of his titles.
The International Cycling Union, which had originally supported Armstrong's fight, later agreed to wipe out Armstrong's record seven victories.
Livestrong spokeswoman Katherine McLane said Monday that Armstrong "remains the inspiration," and is still its largest donor, having contributed nearly $7 million over the years.

Scott Vincent Sica could face the death penalty in his trial for the slaying of Jonesville police Sgt. Greg Martin in 1996.
Two additional men were charged with first degree murder in the Martin case on Jan. 28. When Brian Eugene Whittaker took the stand for his first appearance he shared his version of what took place the night of Oct. 5, 1996. Whittaker claimed that Sica was the shooter in the crime.
Whittaker is the only eye-witness to the shooting.
Judge Edgar B. Gregory presided over the hearing and ruled that the state's argument met requirements for a death penalty case. He set a review hearing for June 3.
Marc Peterson Oldroyd, the second suspect arrested on Jan. 28, was given a first appearance hearing and Judge Gregory ruled that he be held without bond due to his first degree murder charges. Oldroyd did not speak during his hearing.
Both Oldroyd and Whittaker will face a Rule 24 hearing that will decide whether they too will face the death penalty. Their next trial dates are set for March 25.
