As for the quick response of those other companies, did you report these bots well after the games were released? That may be part of the reason for the quick response. They didn't have as many other bugs as a newly released game like GW2 has. They also weren't nearly as popular in the beginning.

I actually saw multiple threads on mmorpg.com that claimed it was in EVERY zone on EVERY server US and EU. THAT's what his point was.
If people spent more time playing the game and less time wondering what some gold farmer was doing, there might be some enjoyment possibly.

Nobody can clear the harvesting nodes for you, they are there until YOU MINE THEM. Same with mobs and quest. Mobs spawn so fast that there is zero chance of them clearing all of them. GW2 is built not to allow bots or others to stop you from progressing and it works very very well.
Harvesting nodes are per your toon, not anybody else's toon. There can be 500 bots running around mining and I will still be able to mine every node in the zone. FACT.
GW2 Bots are also removed within a few days. I reported 3 bots on Saturday morning and by Sunday they were gone.
Please try and play the game before you talk about it. You clearly have never played GW2.
Another hater that has never played the game but is some how an expert on the issues we have.
Botting is an issue but biggest issue is idiot sellers on the trader selling stuff at a lost because of the tax system and screwing the market up for the rest of us. When an 18 slot bag costs 2 gold to make after mining all the mats and it sells for 2g 20 silver. That is not a good profit at all for the time it takes to get the mats.
Sooner or Later
The other thing that gets me about the expectations of the people writing these threads is this.
Just because you report it, doesn't mean they have the manpower to instantly make the botter disappear. It's a new game with bugs and security pains that they are working through. They are actually hiring new support staff, new staff on getting new code to handle detection of bots and macros. They aren't sitting around looking at YOUR report of a bot and clicking the ban button on that one bot report. People who claim this really dunno how this works. I've reported bots in a multitude of mmo's over the years NEVER have i ever seen the botter disappear in the next few seconds much less the same day. smh

We killed a 3 player bot Train on Saturday morning after we reported them. Waited til they ran to a node and trained all mobs in the area to them and watched them die. Killed the mobs and left for our dungeon run.

The Critical Hit Pretzel!
It is condencending post by ANET but truthfully, ALL their responses have the "We know better, you don't know s***" kind of sound to them. Its a bit agitating to me but I'm use to seeing them do it by now.
There is a bot problem and unforuntately their design of the game has made bots that much worst. Teleporting bots only exagerates the botting problem that much more. The fact people can pick out bots so easily and that every player can recall seeing them (don't be ignorant and say you haven't, ignoring they exist makes a game you love worst, not better) is a very bad thing for GW2.
My biggest issue though isn't bots (I don't really play the game much, it bores me to much now, even trying to level alts) but the attitude ANET seems to posses in their responses. Something about their "we know better then you" attitude just really aggitates me and I feel is the wrong approach to have. I think Trion might of spoiled me though. Its fine if you think your methods are best, but at least be nice about it and don't be so condencending to your player base.

I don't believe anyone is botting. I suspect there are no botts. What you think are botts are the accounts of under 18 y.o. whose parents have told them not to talk to strangers on the internet. Some of these accounts could possibly be adults who are watching TV as they play, and are playing the game without watching the screen often.

It doesn't deviate about how destructive bots are for the game!
They feck up ingame economies and they kill immersion. Nothing is a worse sight than seeing bot trains of characters with shitty names warping all over the place! It just sucks.

None of that happens in GW2. GW2 was designed to give players solutions to every major PVE problem we've seen in every lobby style mmo since EQ.
There is no kill stealing
There is no competition for nodes
The only thing they have been able to use is the hacks to teleport and even that is limited to the same zone.
I don't like bots as much as the next guy but cmon, let's stop with the exaggerations.

We are aware of the problem and are working on it to the best of our ability. Please use the in game reporting tool to report bots as you see them, that's why we made that an option in the reporting tool.
So, Arenanet are condescending and arrogant because players are stupid and can't follow simple directions?

Give it some time. If it is giving you that much of a headache just go play something until the first bot wave has dissolved.

To everyone else.. Until this game I paid little attention to bots. I put up with them in games as old as Asheron's Call. However, this is the first game where they directly impact my ability to make money and earn gems. Even if that impact is minimal (say 5-10%) it still exists. The more garbage they flush into the economy the harder it is for real gamers to achieve their goals. This may not impact everyone, but it impacts those interested in things like Legendaries and T3 Cultural (to name a few).

name me 1 tripple A mmo that doesnt have bots OP...i dare you.
The mighty king of mmo's for the last 8 years seem to have given up on banning bots as in each and every battleground you enter you see between 2 or 10 bots depening on time of play.
This is also the 4th post today about bots in guildwars 2....

From what I understand some easy ways to tell a bot are:
goofy names (ghruskdloo)
teleporting instantly to respawn points as the mobs spawn when other players don't do that
no armor (at least in GW2 because broken armor leaves you naked)
character randomly running around repeatedly using skills even when no mobs are around
Yes, there are bots, especially in Queensdale, at least that's where I've seen them the most. These are not just kids playing the game. Nice bridge-guarding post though.

There really isn't anything ANet can do about the bots because botting isn't the core problem. The core problem is that the most efficient way to play the game so closely resembles botting. If you want anything of value in this game then the only way to get it is by grinding. What do bots do? They grind. Hence, players who want things with the least amount of effort will bot.
-If you want gold then the best way to get it is by grinding zerg events. That is why you see tons of bots at these events.
-If you want karma then the best way to get it is by grinding zerg events. That is why you see tons of bots at these events.
-If you want mats for crafting or to sell then you grind node spawns. That is why you see bots teleporting from node to node.
If someone can invent a bot to farm dungeon tokens or WvW honor badges then they will because these are things you need to grind as well. Until ANet fixes the core problem that the entire game is built around grinding various currencies or items then the botting epidemic will never end. I highly doubt this will happen so there isn't much point in complaining.

bots mess up the economy, and make your chances of loot & getting gold credit for DE's in High lvl areas almost impossible for certain classes.
Think not? Head to Orr, to any of the stationary events, try aoeing the mobs when there is 5 bot rangers letting loose. On my mesmer i barely can get silver, i can get gold by changing my entire build around. Its just an annoyance.
Never the less I'm having a blast on my alts, and I accept the fact they will do something about it very slowly, and fans will close their eyes and pretend there is no problem.
The only surprising part of the entire thread is the fact some people still pretend there is no bot problem.

You the OP need to realise that just because a few servers are affected doesn't mean all of them are.

Resident GW2 apologist here again. Botting is happening. I've reported at least 12 botters. There are bot trains set up in Sparkfly Fen as I type this. There seem to be a much higher amount of botters (or at least, they're much more noticible or indiscriminate) in this game than in any other MMO I've played.
ANet needs to address this toot sweet. Burying their heads in the sand won't make the problem go away.

Ev'rywhere you go;
Take a look in the five and ten glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in ev'ry store
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
On your own front door.
- Meredith Willson
Stepping outside into the rare glow of sunshine I am kissed by the cool, crisp chill of winter in the air. That special humidity that whispers snow tickles my nose and once again I am excited by the hint of another change of season. I slip on my gloves, tuck my hands deep into my pockets and there is a newfound briskness in my step inspired by the upcoming holiday season electrifying the day.
I love autumn, but this year autumn has meant nothing but rain, rain and more rain. No bright sunny days, no bundling up in gaily-colored sweaters to protect against a joyful, dizzy drop of temperatures, no crunch of golden and red foliage underfoot, only gray, damp days, matted, sticky swaths of dead leaves lying like an old forgotten scarf in the gutter and a disagreeable wet rawness seeping underneath our clothes and into our homes, chilling us to the bone. No pleasure at all.
But with Jack Frost now nipping at our noses, I am starting to get excited! We don't celebrate Thanksgiving, so there is no rational line drawn precisely in between the pages of the calendar, no great November-December divide that signals the go-ahead for the official kick off of the Christmas season. Here in France, the decorations are now being hung up and down every street, swags of lights strung across the roads from shop to shop, streetlamp to streetlamp. White fluffy reindeer and polar bears, tiny elves and princess dolls are finding their way into winter scenes in every store window, snowy white, silver and gold deck every hall, garlands of green and red wind up staircases and grace window displays all over town. Candy store windows are being stacked with beribboned boxes of holiday delights and wine shops are no doubt clearing space for the extra crates of Champagne. No, I don't celebrate Christmas but no doubt my readers know how much I love the season!
It's been absolutely crazy in our private little kingdom here what with Simon coming home to visit then leaving for an impromptu trip to New York and, be still my motherly heart, not thinking to contact us for 4 days to let us know he had arrived at his friend's apartment in one piece. I have been working like a madwoman on projects as yet to be told day and night and even roping my men into the action, handing out duties as a mother doles out cookies to her little ones. Husband's Mac died and joined wayward, bored, computerless Simon in pushing little old mom out of her desk chair and taking over her laptop, leaving her like a rudderless tugboat in the great ocean, rubbing her hands in worry and pacing back and forth across the wooden floors. I've been cooking and baking, testing two fabulous cookbooks (soon to be posted!), organizing the first From Plate to Page workshop and packing for my long-awaited girls' weekend in London with Meeta, Jeanne and Hilda.
So through all of this as well as the long, long month of rain, I simply had no time to cook or bake anything for this post…. BUT….
As I am now so excited by the lighting of the first Hanukkah candle on Wednesday, December 1st (and JP has already selected our gift for this year YAY! Something absolutely frivolous but simply gorgeous!), I have decided to offer you two gifts: a few favorite Hanukkah dishes that I created and posted over this past year, sweet and savory meals to be eaten and enjoyed all year round yet perfect for this Jewish holiday (just follow the links!) AND CHOCOLATE!!!
The kind, generous people at Hotel Chocolat, British Cocoa Grower & Chocolatier, presented me with a box of their LUXE Classic Christmas Selection of luxury chocolates and they have offered to send one lucky Life's a Feast reader the same sensational box of chocolates! I am privileged to be living in a city filled with chocolatiers and have become quite the connoisseur so when I received my box of Hotel Chocolat chocolates I was a bit skeptical. JP's eyes lit up and he dove in. I hesitated – well I always do, just wanting to select the right flavor! But I worried that I wouldn't like these chocolates. I mean, I've been spoiled by the best chocolates French artisans have to offer! Oh, ever the worrywart! My hand hovered over each chocolate, dark, milk, filled or not. When I finally slipped the first into my mouth all doubt disappeared as the creamy chocolate slid over my tongue, the meltingly smooth praline filling blended with the perfectly balanced chocolate and I was convinced that I was holding in my hands stunning, top quality luxury chocolates. The dark chocolate is smooth yet rich and peppery, the milk creamy and not too sweet. And whether filled with meltingly smooth praline, mouth-warming truffle, liquor- or fruit-infused ganache or soft caramel, each and every one is fabulous! JP and I select one – or two – every evening as we settle down together on the sofa with our after-dinner glass of wine and our only complaint is that soon, oh much too soon, the box will be empty.
Be sure to visit the Hotel Chocolat website and just ogle the amazing selection of chocolates. And don't forget the holidays! They have an amazing array of dazzling holiday gift boxes from gorgeous Christmas Crackers and Advent Calendars, to special Christmas Tree Boxes and luxurious Stocking Fillers and Wreaths. It makes a girl wish she did celebrate Christmas... well, she can still enjoy the fabulous chocolates, can't she?
Hotel Chocolat will directly send a box of Christmas Chocolates to one lucky winner here in Europe. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post (please leave either your e-mail address or twitter handle so I can contact you) by Friday, December 3 and I will randomly select the winner to be announced in my post immediately following this date. You can also tweet about the Giftaway (be sure to use #hotelchocolat and @lifesafeast in your tweet so I can find you) by Friday December 3, 12am CET. If you do both – you have two chances of winning the box.
And do take a minute to read this delightful little interview of fabulous blogger Lorraine of Not Quite Nigella for Australia's Mylookbook in which she recounts her "celebrity blogger" status, discusses her wonderful, entertaining blog as well as her future book and mentions two of her favorite blogs... Thanks so very much, my friend, for the honor. Much! Cake for you!
Any questions? Then off you go.
A Thanksgiving Dessert Recipe From a Thanksgivingless American: don't miss my latest story and a fabulous Chestnut-Chocolate recipe on Huffington Post Food.
And for a little dessert:
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks.
Dressed in holiday style
In the air
There's a feeling
of Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on ev'ry street corner you'll hear

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. --- The Chattanooga Mocs athletics program announces a change in leadership in the men's basketball program Wednesday afternoon. Head Coach John Shulman is being released after nine seasons on the Chattanooga bench.
UTC made two NCAA Tournament appearances, won two Southern Conference Championships and four Southern Conference North Division titles in Shulman's tenure. It was his first head coaching position.
His nine years heading the program is third-longest in Mocs history behind Mack McCarthy (12, 1986-87) and Leon Ford (10, 1963-72). He is No. 2 in wins trailing McCarthy's 243.
Shulman was promoted to head coach after two seasons as an assistant to then-head coach Jeff Lebo in the 2003 and 2004 seasons. Lebo departed for the head coaching position at Auburn and a complete search for a replacement led to Shulman's ascension to the lead chair.
His first team in 2004-05 went 20-11, defeated Tennessee in the regular season, captured the SoCon Championship and made the first UTC trip to the NCAA Big Dance since the Sweet 16 season of 1997. The seven-year postseason drought was the longest of the school's DI era which began in 1977-78.
Shulman's 2009 squad overcame a spate of injuries in the regular season to win the school's 10th SoCon Championship and NCAA Appearance. That team also made a memorable week-long appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon during its NCAA Tournament run.
A national search for a successor begins immediately.
"I believe it is important to recognize and appreciate the contributions that Coach Shulman made to our athletics program and our student-athletes. For those investments and contributions, we can all be grateful. In recent years, however, the performance record has not reached a standard that John, the University or fans found satisfying. After lengthy discussions between myself, Chancellor-Elect Angle, University administrators, and Coach Shulman, we all have come to the conclusion that a change in leadership is appropriate.
"I join other friends and supporters of our basketball program in saluting John for the investment he made and his legacy of integrity in the operation of our program and extend to him and his family best wishes for whatever step awaits in the continued unfolding of his career."
"Although I did not get to know John Shulman personally, I know that he did a lot of good things for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. He worked hard to fulfill the mission of the athletics department, guiding, supporting and encouraging our student-athletes in their quest for comprehensive excellence, academically, athletically and socially. For that, we all applaud his efforts.
"Moving forward, I think UTC is a great opportunity for a new Athletics Director looking to work within the framework of an engaged metropolitan university. There is a solid foundation that can support a tremendous amount of growth and be a continued source of pride in our community. I am excited about the future of the Mocs and look forward to working with the new leadership in the athletics program."

It's hard to believe this is Week 9 of the high school football season. That means the regular season comes to an end next week for Class A, AA and AAA teams.
It's also hard to believe The Post and Courier's Phil Bowman picked Fort Dorchester to lose to Colleton County last week. For the record, the Patriots posted a 56-14 road victory against the Cougars, who were celebrating Homecoming.
ABC News Channel 4 expert Dean Stephens didn't make the same mistake. He picked the Patriots to rebound after their loss to Summerville a week earlier.
Stephens was on target, going 6 for 6 to edge Bowman, who went 5-1.
Here are this week's picks:
Hilton Head at Hanahan
Stephens: The Hawks finish their business. Hanahan, 31-7.
Bowman: Nobody is stopping the Hawks this week. Hanahan, 34-14.
Woodland at Bishop England
Stephens: The Bishops battle til the end. Bishop England, 28-24.
Bowman: Bishop England's 18-game region winning streak comes to an end. Woodland, 21-13.
Wando at Goose Creek
Stephens: Difficult place to get the train back on the track. Goose Creek, 58-14.
Bowman: Reedy's raiders ready to run the table. Goose Creek, 42-7.
Stratford at West Ashley
Stephens: Knights keep their eyes on the prize. Stratford, 28-7.
Bowman: Stratford's perfect season continues. Stratford, 24-10.
Bluffton at Fort Dorchester
Stephens: The Patriots defend the fort. Fort Dorchester, 28-21.
Bowman: Picked against Pats last week. Won't make same mistake. Fort Dorchester, 21-17.
Summerville at Colleton County
Stephens: Summerville picks up another win for Coach McKissick, Summerville, 35-7
Bowman: McKissick gets 609th career victory. Summerville, 21-0.

text: I made a slightly nicer version of my prototype fire piston at work last night. It doesn't work as miraculously as the ones you can watch on youtube but it works. I would consider it more of a toy than a "forever fire starter" because it relies on an O ring and a way/materials to make char cloth. As evidenced by it early usage you could make a packing out of a lot of things and a lot of different material could be turned into char material. Me? I have enough ferrocerium rods to last me until long after I'm dust. It was still a fun project and I may try a few different versions I have swimming around in my grey matter. Definitely baffles the thought challenged people who see it in action though, it's worth it to make one just to see peoples reactions.

This story was updated at 4:55 p.m. on April 18, 2013.
A 16-year-old girl at Montgomery Blair High School was tased by a Montgomery County police officer Thursday after she "became very combative with staff" and struck the officer, according to schools spokesman Dana Tofig.
The girl, a freshman at the school, will be charged with second-degree assault and disruption of school, according to Montgomery County Police Officer Janelle Smith.
The student and officer, who is the school resource officer at Blair High, were both not seriously injured, Smith said. The girl was taken to the hospital, following procedure after someone is tased, she said.
The girl became combative after being told to go to class at about 11:38 a.m. Thursday, Smith said.
After the girl struck the officer, the officer used a Taser to shock the girl, Tofig said.
Additional police were called to the school, he said.
The student could face school disciplinary action, Tofig said.
Blair Principal Renay Johnson wrote in a letter to parents Thursday that the event happened during the school's lunch period. The student assaulted the officer and had to be restrained by police, Johnson wrote.
The school's security team and the county police department work closely to make sure there is a safe school environment, she wrote.
Johnson told parents that children should speak with school counselors and staff if they have questions.
Johnson addressed students over the loudspeaker Thursday afternoon, telling them there was an incident and that police were involved. She said a student involved was not seriously injured.
Students were recording the incident when it was happening and laughing, and that this behavior does not match the culture of the school, Johnson said.
Attorney General Douglas F. Gansler was at the school on Thursday teaching for the day as part of an event hosted by the county's teachers union, Montgomery County Education Association.
Gansler was unaware of the incident until later in the day, said David Paulson, spokesman for Gansler.
Staff writer Daniel Leaderman contributed to this report.

While I usually have a lot to say on the joys of childhood, I don't have much to add to the topic of the joys of middle school. For there wasn't any. At all.
I don't have a lot of luck venturing out in the winter weather. Either I have to spend eight hours of my day in soggy shoes and socks or I have to look at the tatters of my once new-looking tights – a victim of falling on the slick sidewalks. I've had many bruises, scabs, and even a stitched-up chin from the icy ground. Yet with all my sob stories on the subject, none come close to the sordid tale that my 13-year-old self had to endure.
It was seventh grade. And while I wasn't unpopular, I also wasn't a standout. And in my ability to become invisible, I had found one outlet that I excelled at. Maybe being first-chair clarinet in band isn't the most coveted of positions, but for me, it was. I could play scales like it was my business and was lucky enough to be chosen for quite a few honor bands during that time period. Something I incessantly bragged about to my other classmates who could care less.
On a slushy winter day, my friend Katie and I headed to Simpson College for one of those events. I had prepared night and day for this competition. And after nerve-wracking tryouts for chair competition, I was able to secure the top spot of all clarinet sections.
Wasn't this a highlight. Waltzing into the college cafeteria, I felt pretty important among my counterparts. For there was third-chair girl in the second section, and lookie-here its fourth chair in third-section boy – how disappointing for them.
As depressing as it might sound, it was my time to shine – for about an hour and a half. Katie and I both sat at the "popular" table that day, as we both had made good impressions with our fellow band nerds.
It was after lunch that things suddenly soured. There was a large hill outside of the building, covered in snow. Some of the boys in their dress clothes dared others to slide down the hill. At that moment, I was not lacking in confidence and wanted to savor my cool factor for as long as I could. I boldly declared that, I, Carrie Olson, would roll down the hill. And I did. Into a gigantic mud pile at the bottom.
My hair was coated in mud, as was the rest of my body. In seconds, I had become a mud monster clawing up the hill to get back to my comrades. But they had all scattered, back to the rehearsal hall for practice. Into a bathroom I went, were paper towels sopping in water and soap could not wipe the humiliation or compacted dirt away.
So I went wandering around the deserted campus. After failing to find my band director, "mud girl" desperately ran to the car we had traveled to Des Moines in. A pair of extra clothes was sitting in a bag behind the locked windows. For a moment, I pondered the implications of slamming a rock through the window – but quickly found my bearings.
After defeat, I wandered back into the music building's public bathroom, locking myself in a handicapped stall with my soapy paper towels. It had been a good 45 minutes, as hot tears flowed and my embarrassment got the best of me. I wouldn't be remembered by my musicianship but my mud.
A couple college-aged girls entered the room and while fixing their make-up, talked of how campus police were searching for a middle school student lost at the college. In my foolishness, I hadn't realized that not showing up for practice would worry the adults at the event. Bursting out of the stall, I yelled, "It's me!"
Surprised, the girls ushered me, all blurry-eyed, to an instructor who had been in charge of finding me. It was then that I was able to get a hot shower and borrow some sweats before my parents finally arrived with new dress clothes for me to wear for the concert.
After a pep talk by my mom and dad, I went out and performed decently. I tried to get the trauma out of my mind. It was quickly relived as a boy came up to me after the competition in line at a local Wendy's, saying to me, "You're the girl who sat in the mud …" "Shh," an adult woman said to him quietly. "She's probably embarrassed enough."
Reality set in. I would be 'mud girl 'to these people. Not 'good at the clarinet' girl. Popularity over. Sigh.
Most people will look at this moment with a smile and talk about how hilarious it now seems. And it is, to some extent. But what I most remember about that moment was the complete humiliation that I had to endure. This wasn't the first (and definitely not the last) time that my self confidence had soared, only for me to get knocked down peg or two soon after.
Did I get any insight from this situation? Did I learn anything? Not really, just don't be an idiot. Be a bit smarter. And damn you, snow.

Illinois Central LEGACY Scale 2-8-4 Berkshire Steam Locomotive #7020
6-11391 | Price: $1,249.99
2-8-4 Berkshire Power
In 1924 the Lima Locomotive Works presented a new steam engine with a wheel arrangement of 2-8-4. This new engine ran on 63" drivers and the firebox rode on an articulated 4-wheel truck. This provided greater space for air circulation, thereby creating more power. It could cruise at 55 miles per hour and greatly reduced the need for helper engines. The new locomotive became so identified with two New England competitors, Boston & Maine and
Boston & Albany, that it was named for the Berkshire Mountains in Massachusetts.
The locomotives would go on to see service with the Santa Fe, Southern Pacific, and New York Central family. The locomotives are distinguished by their feedwater heaters, either a "coffin" feedwater heater or the more common Elesco feedwater heater.
- Legacy Control System equipped – able to run in LEGACY Control mode, in TrainMaster Command Control mode, or in Conventional mode with a standard transformer
- Odyssey II Speed Control with On/Off switch

-LEGACY "Real-Time Quilling Horn" control with instant response for realistic signature "quilling" and correctly timed warning signals
-Single hit or continuous mechanical bell sounds
-Sequence Control plays the sound effects of an entire trip, including warning sounds and announcements, based on the movement and speed of the locomotive
-Current speed and fuel dialog, refueling sound effects

The Dagger
North Carolina and Kentucky alumni will face off in charity gameJeff Eisenberg at The Dagger2 days ago
Even though the on-again, off-again rivalry between North Carolina and Kentucky is on hiatus this coming college basketball season, fans will still have a chance to get a taste of the rivalry.
Alumni teams from both schools will square off in a charity game on Sept. 13 at Rupp Arena, Kentucky announced on Friday.
The game will feature current and former professional players from both North Carolina and Kentucky. It's unclear which players will participate at this point, but the two programs have put so many players into the NBA in recent years that organizers will have plenty of options from which to choose.
Seventeen North Carolina alums played in the NBA last season including Ty Lawson, Danny Green, Harrison Barnes and Vince Carter. Eighteen Kentucky alums played in the NBA last season including John Wall, Eric Bledsoe, Demarcus Cousins and Anthony Davis.
Illinois has a point guard problem with Tracy Abrams out for the yearJeff Eisenberg at The Dagger4 days ago
The bad luck that has haunted the Illinois basketball program during John Groce's tenure doesn't seem likely to subside anytime soon.
The Illini will have to play without their starting point guard for a second straight season next year after Tracy Abrams tore an Achilles tendon during a workout on Monday.
The injury to Abrams is especially galling because he had missed all of last season too as a result of a torn ACL suffered in early November. The fifth-year senior had been on the verge of playing at an all-conference level prior to the injuries, having averaged 10.6 points and 3.5 assists as a sophomore and 10.7 points and 3.2 assists as a junior.
Abrams' return had been expected to shore up the point guard position for Illinois, a problem area all of last season for an Illini program that faded late in Big Ten play and missed the NCAA tournament for a second straight year. Now Illinois will have to rely on unproven players or converted wings for a second consecutive season.
Kansas, Indiana highlight this year's Maui Invitational bracketJeff Eisenberg at The Dagger5 days ago
It's no mystery what potential title game Maui Invitational organizers wanted to create when they designed this year's bracket.
They were trying to set up a championship clash between Kansas and Indiana when they placed the two blue bloods on opposite sides of the draw.
The Maui Invitational bracket released Tuesday has the reigning Big 12 champion Jayhawks pitted against host Chaminade in the opening round of the tournament. Assuming Kansas avoids an upset of monumental proportions, it would meet the winner of UCLA-UNLV in the semifinals.
Indiana will open against Wake Forest on its side of the bracket. The winner of that game will likely meet a much-improved Vanderbilt team that finished last season on a hot streak unless the Commodores fail to get past rebuilding St. John's in the opening round.
A Kansas-Indiana matchup would be an appealing one given that both teams will likely begin next season ranked in the top 15 in the nation.
Ole Miss star guard Stefan Moody arrested for DUIJeff Eisenberg at The Dagger6 days ago
Six weeks after undergoing surgery to repair a stress fracture in his left tibia, Ole Miss guard Stefan Moody's offseason got even worse this past weekend.
The SEC's leading returning scorer was arrested early Saturday morning near campus for DUI. The Jackson Clarion-Ledger first reported the news on Monday.
The news is far from ideal for an Ole Miss program that is counting on Moody to be its leader next season.
The 5-foot-10 senior guard started 33 of 34 games last season and averaged 16.6 points and 2.4 assists while leading the Rebels to a surprise NCAA tournament bid. He also led the SEC in free throw percentage and 3-point field goals made and finished third in steals.
Moody is expected to recover from his injury in time for the start of the season. Ole Miss has yet to make an announcement regarding whether he'll face punishment for his DUI arrest.

Coveted Memphis transfer Austin Nichols picks VirginiaJeff Eisenberg at The Dagger7 days ago
Virginia's chances of remaining an ACC title contender beyond next season improved significantly on Sunday when the Cavaliers landed a transfer many of the top programs in the nation coveted.
Austin Nichols, Memphis' leading scorer and shot blocker this past season, chose Virginia over a host of other suitors, a source confirmed Sunday afternoon to Yahoo Sports.The 6-foot-9 forward will have two years of eligibility left after he sits out next season.
It's no surprise Virginia secured Nichols since Tony Bennett's team has been considered the favorite since earlier this month when Memphis lifted transfer restrictions that would have prevented the Cavaliers staff from speaking with the forward.
Virginia heavily recruited Nichols out of high school before the former top 50 prospect chose hometown Memphis instead. The Cavaliers also have a built-in advantage due to the connection between Nichols' ex-AAU coach Ernie Kuyper and the family of John Paul Jones, the man after whom Virginia's arena is named.
Severity of violations show Tennessee was right to fire Donnie TyndallJeff Eisenberg at The Dagger9 days ago
When Southern Mississippi released the notice of allegations it received from the NCAA on Friday evening, the severity of the violations allegedly committed by former coach Donnie Tyndall proved two things.
Tennessee athletic director Dave Hart did not do a good enough job vetting Tyndall before hiring him almost 16 months ago, but Vols officials made the correct decision acknowledging that mistake and firing him after just one season this past spring.
The most severe allegation against Tyndall asserts that he arranged fraudulent academic credit for seven prospective student athletes during his two-year tenure at Southern Miss from 2012-2014. That allegedly includes one instance in which Tyndall paid for the online courses himself.
Three Arkansas players arrested on suspicion of forgeryJeff Eisenberg at The Dagger11 days ago
Arkansas was already poised for a fall next season after stars Bobby Portis and Michael Qualls both opted to enter the NBA draft.
What happened Wednesday won't help.
Arkansas has indefinitely suspended guard Anton Beard and forwards Jacorey Williams and Dustin Thomas after they were arrested on suspicion of first-degree forgery.
The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported that surveillance cameras caught all three players using counterfeit bills at three different locations last Friday and Saturday. First-degree forgery is a Class B felony in Arkansas that can carry a prison sentence of five to 20 years.
"We have become aware of a pending legal issue involving three men's basketball student-athletes," a statement from the Arkansas athletic department said. "The student-athletes have been suspended indefinitely from the men's basketball program. Our continued expectation is that our student-athletes conduct themselves in an appropriate manner at all times."
Kentucky self-reports minor recruiting violation involving DrakeJeff Eisenberg at The Dagger11 days ago
The most memorable part of Drake's ill-fated appearance at last year's Big Blue Madness may no longer be him donning Kentucky warmups, participating in the pre-scrimmage layup line and missing a jump shot by an embarrassingly large margin.
That has been surpassed by something that happened a couple hours later.
A Freedom of Information Act request by SportingNews.com revealed Wednesday that Kentucky has self-reported a minor NCAA rules violation stemming from impermissible communication between Drake and three prospective recruits who attended Big Blue Madness. Kentucky actually went so far as to send a cease-and-decist letter to Drake after he posed for photos with guard Charles Matthews, forward Carlton Bragg and center Stephen Zimmerman.

Ex-North Carolina player: Women's basketball being made a 'scapegoat'Jeff Eisenberg at The Dagger12 days ago
Even though North Carolina likely won't respond to the NCAA's Notice of Allegations for another few weeks, one of the school's former women's basketball players fears she knows what's coming.
Meghan Austin expects the Tar Heels athletic department to sacrifice its tradition-rich women's basketball program in hopes of avoiding serious punishment for its two biggest revenue producers, football and men's basketball.
Austin, a 2008 North Carolina graduate currently coaching at Montreat College, penned an editorial for the Raleigh News & Observer on Monday accusing the Tar Heels athletic department of already showing signs of making its women's basketball program "the scapegoat." Austin noted that men's coach Roy Williams got a contract extension earlier this summer but women's coach Sylvia Hatchell has thus far not received the same show of support.
Why an AAU team chose to name itself the Motor City MuslimsJeff Eisenberg at The Dagger12 days ago
Only a few weeks before their debut tournament this past spring, members of the nation's only known all-Muslim AAU basketball team were still grappling with an important decision.
Did they want to select a team name that would make it easier to blend in on the AAU circuit or one that would highlight the differences between themselves and their opponents?
A brainstorming session among the players produced some tolerable yet unimaginative possibilities, from the Ballers, to the Warriors, to the Mustangs. Coach Clarence Archibald offered a more daring alternative when he suggested the team show pride in its faith and culture by opting for a name featuring either the word "Muslim" or "Islam."
"Some of them were a little hesitant, but I pushed pretty hard," Archibald said. "We all know Islam often is unfortunately portrayed in a negative way in the media. I wanted to be sure we were easily identifiable as an all-Muslim team because it gave us an opportunity to change people's mindsets by showing them we're as American as home runs and apple pie."

Mrs. Montgomery, the last of 10 children, was born to the parentage of the late William P. Randall and Rosa Sanford Randall on Oct. 15, 1926, in Washington County, and had lived in Gray for the past 10 years, having previously lived in Milledgeville. She was the mother of 10 children, worked as a textile worker for Meadows Textiles, and in her last 10-15 years, her health had declined. Her daughter, Arine M. Adams, and her nurse, Julie Lloyd, had been her constant and daily caretakers. Mrs. Montgomery has many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, of whom Derral M. May had been the right and left hand in her daily and yearly care. Mrs. Montgomery has many nieces and nephews. Charlene G. Waller had been her sitter, when needed.

text: Forgive me if this idea has been brought up before. How about implementing a system where registered users can select the fighters they believe will win on a card, and then receiving or losing points if their fighter wins or loses. Or even more points if they correctly guess how the fighter will win, i.e. head kick KO. Display the forum users points on their user tag. It would be fun and create some competition among the forum users. Just an idea, I think it would be cool.

I would buy this product again and again This tea is a wonderful choice for people who do not drink coffee. Too bad that you cannot buy it online.

Wow, pinned... Does this mean that we're going steady? :blush: :biggrin2:
Thank you for the kind words everyone, especially from so many of you who do take the time to welcome each individual. And as for any of those each individuals who may stumble into this thread... The views expressed above apparently do reflect those of the management - namely, that MrsSmeej is, indeed, incredibly lazy.
Once again, to quote the Whos down in Whoville; "Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome..." :grinning:

There is perhaps no one more excited for Google Glass than Facebook cofounder Mark Zuckerberg.
On Wednesday at the University of California, San Francisco's Mission Bay medical campus, the Facebook CEO met up with Google cofounder and special projects head Sergey Brin. While the pair crossed paths because of their shared backing of the newly announced Breakthrough Prize For Life Sciences, their meeting in the back corner of an auditorium in UCSF's Genentech Hall proved to be an informal business discussion about Google's highly anticipated augmented reality spectacles.
After finishing interviews with broadcast media regarding their new life sciences awards, Zuckerberg strode over to Brin, who deferred speaking duties at the event to his wife, Anne Wojcicki, to check out what's become a trademark accessory for the Google head honcho. Google, which launched its campaign to get Glass onto the heads of a handful of early "explorers" on Wednesday, apparently had not shared them with one of Silicon Valley's richest individuals.
"I can't wait to get my own," said Zuckerberg of Glass, while Brin tried to adjust his own pair on the Facebook CEO's head.
In the past, Zuckerberg has been wary of commending Google, which some see as a natural rival to Facebook in the battle for corporate Silicon Valley hegemony. Late last month during Facebook's fourth quarter earnings call, Zuckerberg noted of his company's connection to Google: "Even though our relationship isn't one where the companies really talk, we are able to do a bunch of things and build some great experiences."
On Wednesday, "the companies" talked. And they talked about developing for Google Glass.
While it was undoubtedly informal, the meeting of the minds from two of Silicon Valley's most powerful corporations showed that Facebook was ready to develop for Glass. According to Zuckerberg, Facebook has a team of three engineers, led by a former Google employee, waiting for the product to be shipped to them so they can start building applications.
Zuckerberg also reversed his earlier position that Silicon Valley's companies do not communicate or work closely with one another. When asked about his collaboration with members from Google and Apple on his current life sciences prizes in a live CNN interview, Zuckerberg backtracked.
"I think these companies work together a little more than people think," he said.
Trying on the augmented reality glasses for one of the first times, Zuckerberg attempted voice commands and repeated "O.K. Glass," one of the command prompts on Brin's glasses, a few times. Then he peppered the Google cofounder with several questions, while Brin scrolled for him through different screens with his left hand to Zuckerberg's temple.
"How do you look out from this without looking awkward?" asked the black hoodie-wearing Facebook CEO. "You know, how are you supposed to use these this without breaking eye contact?"
That was shortly followed by: "Can you get indoor directions?"
Brin, sporting a black beard and white Lululemon long sleeve, thoughtfully considered the inquiry, before answering with a polite, "No, there's no way to specify destination indoors."
While Zuckerberg excitedly tried on the device, he made sure that few photos were snapped. Despite being the CEO of a social network of more than a billion individuals who share pictures and status updates every second, he asked that the handful of observers only take private photos of him and Brin.
"Wait , this isn't supposed to be a thing," he laughed nervously.
Indeed, it's not a thing. Only a handful of people outside of the Mountain View, Calif.-based search giant have tried on the product. Just earlier that day, Google put out instructions on its company website on how members of the public could apply to be one of the first product testers. To enter, contestants need to post a 50-word essay to Google+ or tweet a 140-character statement to Twitter due by Feb. 27. Compelling entries will be selected by Google, then required to pay $1,500 plus tax and travel expenses to attend a special event in New York, San Francisco or Los Angeles.
Though that may be a steep price, that didn't discourage thousands from applying with the official "#ifIhadGlass" tag on Twitter, with the novelty of the product alone enough to encourage technophiles everywhere to be the first adapters. Very rarely does a new device outside the traditional technology paradigm appear in Silicon Valley, and Google Glass represents one such archetypal shift. Projecting a small rectangle in front of the top-right area of the user's right eye, the featherweight spectacles can show anything from traffic maps–at that time it would have taken Brin 41 minutes to get home in light traffic–to appointments and personal notes. Brin's Glass was full of photos and videos of his wife and the other speakers from the earlier Breakthrough Prize press conference.
From a Facebook perspective, those videos and photos on Brin's device are likely the perfect type of content to share on their network. And with a working Facebook integration, it would presumably take the flick of a finger or the quick shift of an eye to share those memories from the spectacles to a social network, whether it be Facebook or rival Google+. Zuckerberg, though, said he had no immediate vision of an application in mind but said to Brin: "Is there anything specific you want us to be trying? If so, I want to be doing that."
Zuckerberg's questioning continued through out the 10-minute interaction, later asking if it was possible to send data from Glass without going through Google's servers. Brin said that was currently not possible.
The Facebook CEO was undeterred, constantly reminding Brin of how excited he was to get his own pair. Unlike the handful of early adopters, however, Zuckerberg will not have to submit any application or pay any fee. Brin said he was excited see what the Menlo Park, Calif.-based social networking company had to offer.
"I'm not a social media expert," he admitted to Zuckerberg.
"I'm not a Glass expert," the Facebook cofounder replied, smiling.
