Either way, let's disperse with any whining about your $29. You ponied up $500 or $600 to have your damn iPhone, certainly you can spare the $29 if you just have to have a loaner during the repair period.
Apple Acknowledges Problems with iPhone's Touchscreen, Offers Repair
A growing number of iPhone users have reported what could be a serious manufacturing flaw affecting some units. After an indeterminate period of use the touchscreen may lose sensitivity in specific locations on the screen. These "dead spots" will be no longer respond to user input. For a device that depends entirely on touch input for manipulation...this isn't good.
Fortunately Apple is listening, and is now offering repairs for anyone experiencing this problem. Unfortunately the company seems intent on enforcing its $29 rental fee for loaner iPhones, while your device is in the shop. Several readers have reported they managed to negotiate a waiver, but I am not satisfied with this scheme. Negotiation should be unnecessary when the problem is a manufacturing flaw.
If I drop my iPhone and send it in for repairs I am more than willing to pony up $30 for a loaner. After all, I am the cause in this case. I draw the line when it's the manufacturer to blame. But I digress. So if your iPhone isn't responding to your touch. Call Apple and schedule a return.
I wish my dating life were this simple. Women never respond to my touch. Whom do I call to fix that?

Apple Acknowledges Problems with iPhone's Touchscreen, Offers Repair

Steve, you idiot, get your facts right. Of course it has a SIM card, how do you think us iPhone users have been able to unlock it for use on any network!?! People keep spreading these idiotic rumours without the facts. iPhone has a SIM card - check it out on http://crave.cnet.com/8301-1_105-9738138-1.html
ok I bought the iPhone on the 22ed of July, I had to wait over 10 days to get it (11)to be exact and since having it, its had problems with the touch screen after a few days of using it I can't use most links in webpages like capital one , myspace , bestbuy , bank of America or any other website, this is a pretty big problem to me, I had to wait over 10 days to get an iPhone that dosent even work properly now iam going to have to wait while my iPhone is shipped and then wait to get a replace ment no iam assuming iam going to tell them they can keep there crappy,BUGGY,ridculies software, they not doing much to help me iam tired of this my iPhone also has been having problems with the browser for all of you wondering about this it seems that whin ever I visit a web site it and it loads unproperly I first noticed this whin ever I was visiting bestbuy.com the page was showin very improperly so I decied to try something I cleared my cache and cookies and just to be shire I went back to my browser and made shire this website was closed and not seting or viewing bestbuy.com from I delete and reset the cache and cookies and also recent viewed site, there for there should have been no directory for the page inside of bestbuy.com there for it should have been erased , well guess what it was not so I decied to close the windows agean and I opened a page to google makig shire I did not have bestbuy.com open I went to my settings a decied to delete the cache and cookies and recent webpages after that I turned the iphone off for about 5 minutes, I turned the iPhone and went to settings and once agean I cleared the cache and cookies and recent websites (akaVistied) after everything was clear I selected my home buttun and went back to the web browser and the olny page the was already open was google then I clicked new page bestbuy.com and there it was agean same page in the same view in the same directory (akaSameLink) same name , now this came to a suprise to me considering I took the proper steps to solve this problem but apperently my cache and cookies werent erased as I thought. There for , if my cache and cookies did not clear like suppose to then it would olny confer me to as how much a master restore would even do, I understand not all iPhones will have this problem but it appears that mine does there for resulting in the conclusion the my web browser has been hijacked and I can not delete the cookie from which caused it , And for all you that say Safari is a good web browser I would say other wise there is currently a hacking exploit open to hijackers with the safari web browser , black hat has discovered this vulnerbility in the safari browers which gives hackers/hijackers the ability to obtain everything on your iPhone it simply askes for information on the iPhone for the hacker/hijacker they even have the ability to listen in on conversation and what ever else they fell to do that being said , also the vulnurbility that can be exploited is still unpatched and in fixed for the hackers/software developers it seems there living the good life, coding half ass patches and fixes at there on slow rate and if you disagree with me listen hear , black hat annouced the vulnerbility to apple and even exploitied it but yet apple did not even get back with black to fix this problem with that being said iam shore there will be a fix for it EVentally , but there shouldn't be this many problems although we have to keep in mind this was made by one of the worest companys/ parent companys that are creating something they can't even handle I assume this is somthing to expect from these companys but something they don't under stand is the fact that there olny worried about geting payed rather the reliabilty of there soft ware and product all I can consider is never buying a product of there's or a parenting company, it's not in my intrest to be apart of the iPhone scandel it's a product the apple has released with out properlly testing it, all of you can not disagree with me while I understand that not all iPhones are defective I still assume a large portion of theme are , whin you start pjishinf the manufactors to produce larger numbers than expected then I assume there are going to be between 25 to 50 % to be defective considering numbers like that would be expected, I figure that I'll go ahead and send my iPhone off and in the mean time I'll have to spend 29$ for a rented one although I will make the 29$ worth it RofL I will test the hijacking exploit my self using it server using a website to hijack/control the vulnurbility that the iPhone is currently suffering from and see what kind of exploits are use able considering this in mind I will post a states of the exploit used agenst the iPhones vulnurbility once I have completed the test however I will not share the (howTo) with you all but rather give you the results I have no intension on being sued by apple for leaking an exploit uses able agenst there vulnurbility, how ever I will hijack the browser on the rented iPhone I have no intentions on screwing mine up consedering that it's a rented one I plan to experment on it olny makes sense 29$ is alot of money altough considering mines not even been in my possen two weeks and is all ready falling I should not have to make 29$ but it's ur money that they want while I understand that they charge and they should it's just that there should be some exceptions for owners like me who had to wait for over a week with no phone just to get it I bought it on the 22ed of July picked it up aug1 and not it's acting all screwed up what the fùçk man this is a real bìTçh of a problem, I can barelly enjoy using my iPhone to day I was tempted to through it agenst the wall although if it would have been free it would be laying on the floor of the wall shatered.
What I would like to also say is that as long as apple contuines to use there curent way of busness and keeps pissing off the hackers with there none dependable service the hijacking/hacking of the iPhone will increase, assuming that inmind you have to ask your self is it really worth it ? as long as apple keeps disatifing
ok I got half way through my post and clicked done, I didn't mean to do this but I noticed somthing this iPhone dosent have an option for me to scroll to the buttum of my post RofL so I could contuine where I left of instead I had to post it as is although I can't really hate on the iPhone for this how ever I will say this website was throwen together a out as well as the iPhone heh considuring you couldn't add a scroll option in the post a comment box , thanks alot for leaving scroll option out you fake âśš wonna be we'd designer tell me somthing who ever created this website was a true idioit I mean look I can call him a stupid bîTçh < ya that's rite it's still there not no bullšíhT âśš >(*********)< look I've already figured out how to cuss in this blog with my words being altered all I ask is add a scroll option in the post comment box not everyone uses computers damn this is A iPhone site rite tell me why you couldn't even configure it a little decent for all the iPhone users that are going to use it, iam going to have to holla at my boy and get the Russian botarmy to take this šhìt down, RofL no iam just joking I iunderstand it's not rite and I would also be upset if someone crashed my server.
By the way I would like to add to this if you are going to connect through WiFi it's a good idea to use a proxy server, I have an old win98 cyclone that I just recently turned into a funcitonal proxy server with proper coding iam able to control incoming and out going traffic, with this in mind I have the ease knowing my server is not being used for an illegal operation like cracking, or petofile shit, also identiy theft is becoming very populary considering hackers are hacking other hackers and other people using them to do things u wouldn't do for instance say u piss a hacker off he will get even I promise you if not killing your computer than he can talk to young girls or boys and have conversations and possable senr your pics to which are mostley c0ps that the hacker knows is a c0p, yup u guest it the hacker hacked the cop which I find very understand able, he'll if it was me ied talk to him for a second let him think he has me then bame crash his comp if it was me ied use erase command promt commands memory dump then delete recuclebin securitly yup u guessed it remener those old codes oh how nice they were and still are which I have a full written proper crash code on my master computer for whom knows why it's a neat program I made using vb which will erase it beyond data recoverey , yes people you can make a computer earsed just by writing over the same directory location of it. Sorry for the none iPhone post ; )
By the way I just learned how to scroll down the post box although I still feal there should be a scroll bar option of course if u want the code I'll figure it out for you it's not hard RofL u should know it j.s
But as I was saying about my proxy server , using random unknow proxy can cause havok for some depending on the owner of the server all the history in mine is view able that's rite you could be geting spyed and not even know it so in terms all of you using a proxy or that plan to use one and know nothing about the owner of the server I wouldn't recommand using that proxy if you have an old computer laying around you can convert that over to be used as a proxy server considering that you can turn that old computer into anykind of server
and it's offical I had to post agean why ? Because this fûćkîñg iPhone has this fûçked up screen with the touch screen slowly dieing away becoming less workable WTF man and dâmñ it add a scroll bar option in the fûçkìñg post comment section this is geting very ridculas I can't scroll down to where I left off at and my touch screen working half âśš with some directory WTF man and this is a offical apple site
I tell u what iam a better programmer than all the fools that perticapated I'm creating this web page u fools need to get ur šhít to gether it looks like u webdesigners and devolpers suck heh this must have been some young fresh collage student that is in a big hurry to think about the smaller thing that counts ya thatsvrite if I was your boss you would have put about 50% more work into coding this page I mean come on there is alot more you could have added j.s
Maybe next time I come to this blog you will have fixed these problem yes that's rite I see more than , just like the fools that coded the iPhone u all just want to get paid, u see they programmers that like doing there job and not ones that are in a hurry trying to get done it's some bullšítè just like that 2.1.0 update rofL it's filled with more bugs than what bugs you did fix with it rofL WTF do u do that ? I'll tell you how because as long as you keep coding šhíty áśš updates you will have to keep making more which means you will keep geting paid for fixing a problem that was old but by also creating a new problem
Eithervway it goes if me and my crew ran that and were geting payed a cool half a million atleast I would be doing my job rather slaking
Atleast I know ied make that cool half a million worth it heh
Long story stratht fix this dàmń iPhone and this website.
Ps add a damn scroll bar option in the post mesg box it's fùçkïñg killing me considering iam using an iphone to read and type this šhít

My iphone touchscreen does not react at all - I have taken the SIM ard out and then place it back in - the screen still does not react. HELP
good luck
I have been having problems with deadspots in my iphone touchscreen for almost a month now. First various areas didn't work, particularly lower right quad, especially on the keypad. Then, it started going really crazy. It would change screens randomly even though I didn't select them, sometimes entering letters and spaces I didn't touch. sometimes it would just go off like wildfire if I passed my fingers above the keypad -about a centimeter above - though not touching it.
I took it into the Apple store for support. They told me that restoring the phone would update the software and likely fix the problem - which it did. While the phone was restoring, they noted that the phone indicated liquid had entered the liquid sensors. this is true. the phone did get wet about 4 months ago. I put it in a bag of rice for a day or so to be sure there was no water inside and it has worked just fine this whole time.
While they admitted to me that they have seen this same problem in phones that have not been exposed to liquid, they told me they wouldn't warranty it. Fair enough, I understand that.
A couple of weeks later, I started having similar problems. went to the store, another restore and it worked again. although while it was restoring they kept telling me that it was liquid damage. that it can take time to corrode, etc. I don't believe it. had it been within a week or two, I would, but not after 4 months. the moisture would have done it's damage and the corrosion maxed out long before now. but if someone (who doesn't work for Apple) has reason to believe otherwise, I'd be interested in hearing.
now I am having the problem again but on a limited basis, only the very bottom right keys on the keypad are affected. does anyone know of a solution other than the restore thing?
Why is apple being so unreasonable with this? I spent a while on the phone with them today trying to explain my touchscreen has areas that do not work. I can not text, call or do pretty much anything on it. I am a pediatric nurse who is on call alot, I need my phone. They offered no apologies, instead I was blasted with the $29.00 fee and a hold for over $500.00 on my credit card just in case they can somehow find a way to blame me and charge me for a defective phone. For those of you who are apple believers, who would pay the extra costs to buy apple products, my question is why? I will try to get my phone repaired but I have learned my lesson, good quality merchandise and great customer service is more important to me than a name from now on. Good luck to all of you, surely someone at apple is smart enough to find a way to fix these phones as well as smart enough to not treat us like we are trying to rob them while doing so.
i got a apple iphone but it will not accept a sim card can any one help me

The iPhone is a great device. A big innovation that has pushed the mobile device market forward. Unfortunatelty it is very sensitive. The glass can break, the water detction sensors can be tripped by shower steam in a bathroom.
That's completely ridiculous that you have to pay for the loaner phones. They should just send out new phones to everyone. At least you don't have to pay for the iphone repair.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by jhjascha Beautiful shoes, but too narrow I really liked the look of this pair. But it was impossible for me to wear - couldn't even fit my toes into the shoes! I typically wear 6.5 shoes, and don't have to be too concerned about the width of the shoes. (I wear Tory's Reva flats in my size. The side of Reva feels a little tight, but not too painful.) However my feet are not that narrow, either. So these shoes are probably for people with very narrow feet, slender toes, and high arch. Too bad as these are really pretty in person. January 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by CambriaMcC Beautiful - But I had to make some fixes . . . These sandals are gorgeous and perfect for the holidays. However, there was one small problem: the non-buckling strap that crosses over the foot was WAY too big. To be fair, I do have pretty narrow feet, so this may not be a problem for anyone else. When weighing my options, I decided to have the local shoe repair fix the problem rather than return the shoe. So, in the end, the shoes cost me an additional $40 (for repair), but I don't think I could have found a prettier pair of shoes for evenings out this season. November 30, 2013

I'm confused... How are HELLP Syndrome and Pre-Eclampsia related -- or are they? Can you have HELLP without Pregnancy Induced Hypertension (PIH) or Pre-Eclampsia or any other high blood pressure issues?
In my first pregnancy, I was diagnosed with PIH at 25 weeks; HELLP at 29 weeks and delivered then by emergency c-section. I guess what I want/need to know is will there be a 'warning' sign like high blood pressure before HELLP comes on? Or, can I be feeling great one minute and have HELLP the next?! (I know the warning signs of HELLP once it hits - I'm more wondering of the days/weeks leading up to it.)
Thank you.

Results 1 to 10 of 73
PDS Rifles Style: Univ. Florida Kickboxing--
My first leg kick match
Result: DWKFYM Loss by TKO in round 2
Post fight write up
I weighed in 2 lbs lower than class limit @ 165lbs.
I was feeling good, especially because I got to eat and drink as we made the drive down to Daytona.
I tried my best to focus, empty my mind of all things that wasn't pertinent to my fight.
It started going downhill when the promoter told me in the middle of the fights that my opponent weighed in 10 lbs lower than me. I asked her how that is possible, if he signed up for 165lbs. The only fighters that were going to fight me wanted to do it under international rules, and I had wanted to do a full contact (american kickboxing) fight. They had been preparing for muay thai bouts (muay thai rules) and I had been preparing for the waist-up bouts (full contact rules). One of the guys with a 0-0 record was a weight class above me, and was barely within catch weight. The other fighter who was closer to my weight was 2-0. Both were about the same height.
I decided to take the fight with the 0-0 guy. And to make things worse, I was the last fight on the card. And when I stepped in the ring, it turns out my the entertainers got my girlfriend to come up in the ring with the ring girl to hold up the sign. WTF? That is not cool.
Bell rings, and I'm not really there. Playing space cadet. I remember thinking that after this match I could eat whatever I want and have a good time. Thats how unfocused I was. Okay, its just an excuse but I really didn't feel like I was there. I was asking myself why the hell I am fighting this guy, and I wasn't ready when that first shot slipped through the guard. I think it hit my nose (where I'm pretty tough with) but I lost control after that.
The rest is self-explanatory in the video.
Aside from the mindset fail, I need to work my boxing so that I never drop my fucking hand. And as pointed out earlier in another video thread, my left straight doesn't have any snap. I'm pushing my hands out instead of snapping/punching it out.
Also, I need to be more flexible in my game. Though I am used to fighting guys taller than me. But this guy wasn't and I needed to play the range game more with him. I should not have tried to stand up and fight the guy coming in wild, unless I was going to be just as wild as him. Stepping back, letting the guy come forward and cutting angles all went down the drain.
I perhaps should have stayed patient and refused the fight. I could have fought the next month, or even the next semester. Now I have a loss on my record. I had felt like I was going to have wasted all that time training.
Good things:
My cardio looked alright. He was getting winded out and if I hadn't been getting so beat up I think I could have controlled the last round and a half. I feel like I just needed to survive another 10-20 seconds before tides would have turned.
My kicks still work well. Head movement felt real good until the latter part of round 1 when I began to get my ass kicked.
my boxing coach told me after the bout that every time I got hit he was hurting too. :(.
EDIT: Error on youtube upload. Let me retry and upload again.
it seems strange to me that promoters over in america seem so fucking retarded. you would -never- get this **** happening on a card in Auckland. no fucking way. nobody would ever work with the promoter again if it did.
then again the level of quality from american kickboxing seems pretty low, probably because boxing is so big there. kickboxing here particularly in auckland dominates boxing.
Style: MT, Judo & BJJ--
I just gave up thinking about my opponent and concentrated only on punching faces in general.
PDS Rifles Style: Univ. Florida Kickboxing--
Yeah, I figure its pretty retarded. Especially my gf being on stage. She refused, but they kept asking her to come on. I remember looking at my opponent, and then looking at her, and thinking "WTF??" After she thought it was her fault that she lost and was crying about it. It wasn't. It was my fault.
Its no excuse. Thats just how it is here, then I need to be ready to fight whoever I want however I need to. I'm reformatting the video and uploading it again. I really would like some advice; something I can work on off-season the rest of the semester.
PDS Rifles Style: Univ. Florida Kickboxing--
Just to make clear: I weighted in at 163lbs, class limit was 165.
PDS Rifles Style: Univ. Florida Kickboxing--
thats fucked up, did they at least make it an exhibition match?
one of the options that was there for a while was to fight a guy from he same town I am in. I said no; all the fighters in our town know each other.
I think my roommate made changes to the connection: I can't upload anything over 10 megs before the connection resets :/
I'm going to talk to him later. meanwhile I'll go to school and upload it tomorrow.

One of the few features that are available in Google Talk's desktop client, but couldn't be used in the web-based gadgets from Gmail, iGoogle and orkut, is file sharing. The missing feature is now available in iGoogle and orkut, but not yet in Gmail.
"Starting today, you can share photos, documents, and other files while chatting in iGoogle and orkut. To give it a try, just click Send a file... in the Actions menu while chatting with a friend (no download required). This feature is also compatible with the file transfer functionality in the Google Talk downloadable software, so you can share files directly from the web with folks who use the desktop version," explains Google.
You can send multiple files at the same time, but you can't select multiple files from the file picker dialog. Google Chat doesn't support transferring files larger than 100 MB.
Google Talk's desktop client is no longer updated, as Google focused on improving the chat feature from Gmail and adding similar features to iGoogle and orkut. Google Talk's homepage still links to the Windows client, but the first option is a plug-in for video chat.

"Killed" does not have to mean "nobody watches or participates anymore" .. it can also be taken to mean "has warped the very nature of the thing so it no longer resembles itself and embraces things diametricaly opposed to the founding principles of the thing". In the latter sense, I think a fair arguement could be made that F2P is "killing gaming", despite the fact that there are larger audiences and more money involved then ever before. The very same dynamic could be said to be applied to the money involved today in college football and what it's effect has been upon what was supposed to have been an "amatuer sport".

This entire article seems to be more about how "DLC is killing gaming", barely anything in there at all that actually applies to free to play games whatsoever. Its all about paid games with DLC.
As far as the DLC part goes, I agree. Too many companies have shifte dtheir focus from "how can we deliver a good game loaded with stuff that lots of people will want to buy" to "How can we deliver this game with barely enough to get them to buy it after we hype the crap out of it, and then sell them bits and pieces of the game that we purposely left out for when they start getting bored".
The entire system relies on suckering people into paying for what they expect to be a complete game, then selling them the rest of the game seperately. Its like advertising a burger loaded with all kinds of toppings, then serving up a bun and a piece of meat and saying "Oh you wanted lettuce, tomato, etc? Well you have to pay extra for individual toppings."
F2P on the other hand offers you a game that you can play completely risk free. You dont have to spend a cent to get in and check it out. Dont like the game? Then quit, and you havent lost any money. Enjoy the game, then keep playing for free. Want to buy some extra stuff? Go ahead.

Free 2 Play is great for casual players or players that play more than one mmo

But the funny thing is it is bad for the person who wants to watch lots of TV shows. Because people are skipping the commercials, they get far less money from ad revenue. They get less money from ad revenue they can't fund as big and interesting shows as they did before. So in the end what you found convenient ends up hurting what you liked.
Does help to show when HBO and Showtime tend to do amazingly well at the emmys and they are a subscription service. You get what you pay for.

I just got done putting together the yearly budget for Operations of my companies online services (and no we are not an MMO, we're in business services) which doesn't even include customer service/tech support and I can assure you it counts for a rather significant chunk of our gross revenue....much larger then either marketing budget or proffits. MMO's can get by with a bit cheaper as they don't have to provide quite as high a level of service....but by no means is their operating costs miniscule..... unless you think it's acceptable to run your game out of someones garage.
Subscriptions ARE "honest" (or at least WERE before cash shops) in the sense that you know up front exactly what it will cost you to play the FULL game up front each month. I wouldn't neccesarly describe F2P as "dishonest", but a little bit more like "hidden fee's" based services. It's not until you actualy start playing until you learn how much it will actualy cost you to play the game at a level you are comfortable with...and this can change drasticaly as you progress...or even day to day as the Dev's tinker with items and prices in the cash shop.

Bandwidth at that level, for that many people, with backups, all housed in a major center, and the servers, and the IT, and the CS, adds up to a significant amount of money.
Wasn't there an article on this site a few months back about how great Free to Play is for the genre?

The Critical Hit Pretzel!
The abundance of games, all being F2P is a huge factor in why games have trouble taking off. At the same time, F2P can be a huge detracting point from a game to be replaced so quickly as well. Cash shop advantages tend to be huge in the games, and often times the experience can be greatly cheapened with it. Look at allods online which is actually a good F2P game but went overboard with Cash shop dependency. Other games like Vanguard basically make you "P2P or suffer from terrible gameplay" model that just isn't worth playing F2P unless your a masochist.
I don't think there is a problem with F2P much like the article states, but HOW its handled thats the problem. Greed kills the environment as developers want to push items people will buy and rake in massive profits, the easiest being advantage giving items.

Sorry OP, your article really comes across as a personal rant against F2P in two games rather than an intelligent commentary on the industry.
As mentioned in the article, cash shops expanded developer/publisher ways to make money that they probably never imagined at launch. But it should be no surprise that industry finds a way to provide supply when there is enough demand. F2P hasn't killed gaming at all; as a matter of fact, it expanded the industry enough to make big-boy industries sit up and take notice. But F2P has certainly changed the gaming landscape, and I'm guessing it will be awhile before it all settles down into something we probably haven't truly seen yet.

There were pirate boards available soon after the Apple II games started becoming popular.
F2P is definitely a detriment to gaming. Especially the all the pay-to-win games. If a game is pay-to-win, I will not play it, no matter how good it is. Some companies have managed to bridge the gap, like Turbine.

I prefer good oldf fashioned subs. I don't mind cash shops for mounts and pets etc but I still don't like that. But there is a line that shouldn't be crossed and EQ2 crossed that line when they started introducing mounts that gave buffs etc. I mean... I paid my sub and some content is unavailable to me unless I clicked the oversized gold cash shop icon and shelled out yet more cash on top of what I paid for expansions and subs.
I haven't played too many F2P games, to me it simply goes against the ideal of what a game should be. Which is simply that the same rules apply to all and everyone is treated equally regardless of anything outside the game, The only thing that should seperate the players is skill, courage and endeavor etc. To allow people to take short cuts while limiting anothers participation in a game goes against that spirit. Call me old fashioned, but I like playing games where all the rules are applied to all... so long as I win.
By the way, the world isn't without irony. There is a world of tanks ad on display at the top of this thread screaming "this is free".

Free to play spreads out the gaming community since players who don't spend are less likely to stay in one place for very long after they realize that they will always be at a disadvantage unless they start paying. In these economic times players are willing to suffer a mediocre experience rather than pay the premium just because it's available. And those willing to pay are getting ripped off by overpaying to enjoy their premium experience in these ftp games; games that in many cases they join because their gaming budies moved to first because of the free factor.
Honestly I just like the notion of subscription. I know what I'm paying and the rest is up to me and... The game devs know what to expect and can produce from there. F2p with real money transfer is and always has been a big turn off for me, with that even the buy to play GW2 turns me off when I look around and see how advanced everyone's gear is and thier look and just knowing it was payed for along with xp boosts, its just a turn off, I just don't want to get caught up in buying virtual items and so when I see that as part of the game, I deem it pathetic and it turns me away.

I read the article expecting to see something about how F2P is killing gaming... you know... evidence that gaming is actually dying... and F2P is somehow the culprit.
Instead - I read about how the author didn't like Sims expansion packs.

I''m the guy who's standing behind you!
F2P is not the same thing as cutting out commercials, F2P, first off, is not really free, for the most part. So F2P is like network TV, as opposed to the previous model, which is cable TV.
There's nothing more gratifying than playing an MMO for free.

Good article, not sure about the lengthly SIMs comparison, but most of the people who will read it are both too inexperienced and too unintelligent to realize it is correct.
Most of these noobs didn't even put many hours into the Good-old-games like D2, AC, Ultima, they're part of the new generation.
Besides F2P the main thing killing the MMO business is the consumers. Big game companies don't want to put out games that might offend their playerbase so they are all easy and skilless now. The majority of players have always been carebears. They don't want death penalties, they don't want other people looting their stuff, they don't want open world pvp because they say ganking is unfair and lame. Those are the 3 of the main components to a good online PvP game. The other is fast potential PvP death.
Counterstrike is one of the most successful competitive games. It is considered far more skill based than CoD (not necessarily more fun, everyone likes different things). One reason is because you can die so fast - almost instantly.
Asheron's Call, still the best PvP MMO of all time, was/is the same way. If you don't dodge an enemies attacks, you can die in a matter of seconds - someotimes 1 shot; when the game was the best, 2, but now I think it is up to around 3 or 4 hits to kill, as they buffed everyones characters and protection spells - something that made the game MUCH worse. The thing is - even back when 1 hit was all it took to kill someone - fights between good players could last up to 30, 40, 50 minutes! Adrenaline POUNDING the entire time. The loser would get a death penalty and the victor would loot their items - I can remember every time I looted someones armor piece(s) or weapons because they had an unlucky drop roll or were out of DIs. That makes an Amazing game.
The new generation cannot handle the penalties or the skill required for pvp. They get ganked when they are starting and either cry about the social problems their attackers must be venting on them and leave the game, full of tears, rather than sacking up and hacking it out to get their revenge and show their attackers who is the best. The problem is - they usually are far from the best. 90% of the population is. The average IQ is only 100. 50% of people have an IQ between 90 and 110.
So Modern games, starting with WoW, give players the illusion that hey, they might not be that bad. Even when a garbage player enters PvP they can do OK. The playing field is fairly even because it doesn't take much skill - people talk about tag targeting and circle strafing while pressing their auto-hit attack buttons like it is skill. If any of those players stepped into a high-level CS or AC fight they would get demolished. Everyone is hyping up GW2 and saying it is great but no real PvPer will touch that game. It takes forever to kill someone, it is pathetic. Didn't try and don't plan on it - sure the leveling up looks fun and all, I'm sure it would be a good time, but it is the baddie-PVP model.
Whether F2P or Sub, most (and all large) game companies are catering to their customers rather than trying to make GOOD games.

The G Force is the newest addition to Goldline's curling shoes.
Many of you out there are already familiar with the shoes available from Goldline. The Glide curling shoes are the perfect entry level shoe: they're comfortable and, with a 1/16" inch thick slider, they have speed that is well suited for those who are just seeking to find their balance out on the ice. Our Podium series curling shoes continue to be a top seller. Whether it is the Bronze shoe, with its 3/32" inch slider, the Silver at 5/32" of an inch, or the Gold, which comes with a ¼" slider, we are pretty certain you can find a shoe in the Podium series that will serve you well, whether it be at your next club game or at a provincial or national playdown.
So you may well be wondering why Goldline felt the need to add the G Force curling shoes to our catalogue. To learn more, we spoke with Doug Flowers, President of Goldline.
Stated Doug, "Our real target for the G Force shoe was the younger curler. We saw many strong curlers coming up through the bantam and junior ranks who were clearly ready for a shoe with a ¼" slider, but the price point on these shoes was really too high for them. Our aim was to produce a high performance shoe with a ¼" slider that would retail for under $200."
Given the shoe was geared toward the younger crowd, the look was pretty key. The G Force has retro styling and looks more like a skateboard shoe than a golf shoe. At the same time, sacrificing quality to reduce the price was not an option. So, just like Goldline's other shoes, the G Force is made of leather (as synthetic materials typically do not stand up well to the wear and tear of the game, and do not provide the same degree of warmth as leather).
Many who have examined the shoe first hand comment on the weight of the shoe. The combination of ¼" Teflon and leather do add some weight to the shoe but this is more than offset by the stellar performance and quality of the shoe. Remember this: picking up a shoe is different than wearing it out on the street. And your legs are typically much stronger than your arms, so the weight will not be noticeable once you are out on the ice. Certainly, those who are using the shoe have commented very favourably on its fit and performance.
The G Force: may it be with you!

Gluten Free Oat Bran for the Dukan Diet
I was intrigued by the simplicity of 'The Dukan Diet'. Unfortunately, a big part of the Dukan diet is oat bran--the nutritious outer layer of the oat grain--and it seemed almost impossible to find gluten free oat bran. Montana Gluten Free PrOatina Oat Products has an oat bran that is certified gluten free.
I actually don't really believe that diets work but was curious to try this protein and vegetable diet that helped Kate Middleton slim down for her royal wedding. Although the meat only beginning of the diet is quite restrictive after a few days you incorporate vegetables--and eventually, once you have lost weight, you can have a wide diet if you go back to a protein only day once a week.
In general, I find that the diets just cause you to gain weight in the long run--just in case you ever decide to ever go on a diet again, your body wants a little more reserve to protect you from another famine. Still, I was curious to try the Dukan Diet with the oat bran to see if it works.
Some people with celiac have a problem with oats so you have to really monitor your symptoms when trying to incorporate oats in your diet.

It seems everyone has a different opinion of dieting and which diets really work versus the "short term weight loss" diets. By short term weight loss , this refers to the phenomena where every pound that was lost comes right back on due to sheer hunger after starving your body for so long. Starvation diets are definitely not the way to go, but there are some excellent lower calorie diets that will leave you far from starving - and keep the pounds off for a lifetime.Print this post

Comments, questions and tips
What a great tasty meal, my daughter cooked this for our family get together, we all loved it! She added onion, pepper, mushrooms, quorn pieces and fresh pineapple, loved the sweet taste which was perfect, just enough. She served with rice, naan bread and poppadums', I can`t wait to try this myself, would definitely recommend.
I added a red pepper and didn't use any water. It was still a bit thin (thin enough to warrant spoons instead of forks), I imagine it will be just right tomorrow. Sweet potatoes did take much longer than stated, too. Despite all that, it was a really easy supper to throw together, and quite tasty too. The pineapple lends a really nice flavour to the usual korma. I would have given it 4 stars if it hadn't been for the inaccuracies in the recipe.

Rated 3.7 out of 5Â by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by AlisonDub I love it! I have been in love with this sweet piece since I laid eyes on it in the catalog. I knew I had to have it! When I got on here, I became a little nervous after reading the poor reviews. BUT, this beauty came in the mail today and I think it is quite adorable. I don't think the top is too big, nor does it make me look big. The waist part is perfect, which I was worried about. The embroidery is precious, and the cuts are very flattering and unique. I am so excited! This is already one of my favorite summer pieces. I guarantee you won't see anything like it ;) I can't wait to frolic around in it :) 2.5.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by sidney1 Fell out of love I like the other reviewer fell in love as soon as i saw it in theJanuary Catalogue.However once i received it the fit was not so great. It was baggy on top so it makes you look larger than what you are,The sheer is pretty...Not worth the price. I love all FP pieces but this one may have to be returned.A bit disapointed. 1.21.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by FPtorranceJAMIE not sure about this one... when I saw this in the january catalog i knew i had to have it! I love the way it is styled in the photos and I also had plans to wear it as a dress in the spring/summer and over jeans with boots and a sweater in the warmer months. When I received it, however, I was slightly disappointed. The top part is a little baggy compared to the rest of the dress (I ordered a medium, and am 5'10, 145 lbs) but I think sizing down would make the seam around the waist too small. The fit is mostly why I gave it three stars. That being said, it is still a gorgeous/unique piece and the photos are a good representation of what it looks like in person. Because it is so different, I am thinking about keeping it in spite of some of the fit issues. 1.14.2013

Siebenaler: 'One for the Money'Written by Michael Siebenaler | | firstname.lastname@example.com
Based on the 1994 book of the same name by Janet Evanovich, the action-comedy "One for the Money" stars Katherine Heigl as lead character Stephanie Plum, a down-on-her-luck ex-lingerie sales clerk who now tackles the tough bail bonds business. Heigl keeps Stephanie's character authenticity by wearing a wig for the role and performing a decent New Jersey accent while her natural personal appeal resonates in each scene. She always keeps the audience on her side except for an odd reaction after a car bomb scene, but recovers with compelling emotional reactions to an injured friend and grisly discovery (implied, but not shown). Ranger, played by Daniel Sunjata, shows Stephanie the ropes and is also described as "the statue of David by Michelangelo, if you dipped him in caramel and strapped some heat on him."
Stephanie's assignments eventually lead to her main target/past love interest Joe Morelli, played by Irish actor Jason O'Mara. Their past relationship picks up again as Joe, an ex-cop, is suspected of murder and misses his related court date. Their on-screen chemistry works as the unconventional plot often surprises viewers where they meet throughout the plot while always hinting at their eventual partnership. Supporting cast members Debbie Reynolds, as Stephanie's grandmother, and John Leguizamo, as a shady fighter manager Jimmy Alpha, impress, but it's Sherri Shepherd who takes the pot as Lula, a memorable prostitute who helps Stephanie discover the truth behind this murder mystery.
Extra features include a great gag reel, theatrical trailer, one deleted scene, and two featurettes – "Bond Girls: Kicking A** in the Bail Bonds Industry", which includes some rated R language while expanding the bail bonds process beyond the film, and "Making the Money: Behind the Scenes" featuring the stars, author Evanovich and director Julie Anne Robinson who puts together an amazing movie except for the bad sound in a kitchen scene with Stephanie and Joe. Hopefully filmmakers will continue future movie installments from the book sequels that include "Two for the Dough" and "Three to Get Deadly". Recommended (***) and rated PG-13 for violence, language, partial nudity, sexual references and some drug material.

Tropic Bombs offers new take on love song for benefit CDWritten by Amanda Tindall | | firstname.lastname@example.com
"I miss those brown eyes and that flowing hair / I miss the way you showed how much you care."
Ryan Wayton began writing his song, "Samson," when a previous girlfriend asked him to write a love song for her.
"She wasn't very supportive of my music, or just music in general," Wayton said. "She'd get upset when I'd go to play, and she said, 'Why don't you write me a love song?' I thought that asking for one kind of defeated the purpose of writing a love song. It just seemed so forced."
Wayton began writing the song anyway, but the two soon broke up. When they separated, she took his Pomeranian with her.
"She was pretty ruthless about the dog and tried to use him as leverage," Wayton said. "The hope was that she would eventually hear this, be flattered, and then realize the song was about the dog. It's like my last ditch effort to get my dog back."

On the "Red, White & You, Too!" CD, the song is performed by Wayton's band Tropic Bombs. Wayton began Tropic Bombs with Jon Hammond, who helped Wayton in the songwriting process.
Wayton began his musical career by playing drums before he picked up singing, and he played in multiple bands before Tropic Bombs came together.
"It'd been a couple of years since we had played together, and we just got together to jam," Wayton said. "We didn't think we'd form a band. It was actually an accident."
While playing one day, the group switched from playing rock to reggae, but Hammond forgot to put a pedal down. The sound that came about was still reggae, but with a twist, Wayton said.
"At first it was kind of a joke," Wayton said. "We laughed about it. But then we realized that it was a really cool sound."
Now the band performs live and produces all their recordings. Hammond is no longer part of Tropic Bombs, but the remaining members took on several other musicians, including Steve Dwyer on drums, Nick Archer on bass and Justin Crumley and Ben Snyder on guitar.
"I don't think we can be judged by just one song," Wayton said. "We're really a live band. We always want to play in Toledo and have people come and have a good time. We do everything ourselves. Our goal is to bring people together to have a fun time in Toledo. We're really about Toledo."

Hunt: Antonio 'Bigfoot' Silva is just another fighter that is in my way
Hunt will look to get back in the proverbial mix when he meets Antonio Silva in the main event of UFC Fight Night 33 on Saturday night in Australia(Friday night in the Western Hemisphere). Hunt recently spoke with Karyn Bryant about that fight, which will headline the fight card:
The thing is, for this fight, I didn't want to take the fight because we're both (American) Top Team affiliates, but if that's the case I might as well just stop fighting. It's just one of those things, I'll have the same respect (for Silva), if not more after the fight.
Hunt and Silva trained together in Miami when Hunt was getting ready to face Stefan Struve at UFC on Fuel TV 8. Hunt would end that fight via devastating third round knockout, breaking Struve's jaw on the way to earning Knockout of the Night honors.
Despite his initial reluctance to take the fight, Hunt signed on the dotted line. The reason behind that move according to Hunt:
It is what it is, and I'm an employee.
Hunt is currently ranked No. 4 in the UFC's heavyweight division. A win over the 18-5 Brazilian may be just the ticket to launch Hunt into the top ten. With that being said, Hunt is not putting any additional pressure on himself due to Silva's standing in the UFC:
He's just another fighter at the end of the day for me, someone that's in my way.

An Aiken man released from jail less than a month ago was detained on burglary and drug charges on Friday, according to the Aiken Department of Public Safety.
Charlie Gene Wenner, 30, of Cedar Road, was charged with second-degree burglary, possession of a controlled substance schedule II and possession of a controlled substance schedule III. He was placed in the Aiken County detention center, where he remained on Monday afternoon.
Officers were called to a hotel on Richland Avenue about 8:30 p.m. on Friday after someone reported a white male wearing tan pants and a black shirt, carrying a blue duffel bag and looking into people's cars in the McDonald's parking lot next door, according to the report.
Officers detained and Mirandized Wenner, who waived his rights and agreed to talk with them. They wrote that his story was "inconsistent."
Wenner allowed officers to search his duffel bag, in which they found several bottles of prescription pills and liquid with various names, including Ambien and hydrocodone, according to the report. Only one of the bottles was Wenner's. Officers also found wallets, cards and dog tags bearing other people's names, as well as a hammer, screwdrivers, socket wrenches and other tools.
Wenner couldn't provide a valid reason why he had property in the bag belonging to so many different people and said they just "left it behind," the report stated. Officers couldn't confirm that any of the items were stolen, so Wenner was detained on just the drug charges.
While processing the evidence later, officers noticed the address on one of the pill bottles matched the address of a burglary that the Aiken County Sheriff's Office had worked earlier that day, according to the report. That information was forwarded to the Sheriff's Office for them to pursue charges.
Another pill bottle had the address of a burglary on Schroeder Avenue that Aiken Public Safety responded to earlier on Friday evening, the report stated. Additionally, Wenner matched the description of the suspect seen fleeing the scene of that burglary.
According to the Aiken County detention center website, Wenner was jailed July 20 on multiple charges of third-degree burglary, breaking and entering a motor vehicle and simple larceny. He was released Sept. 19.

Rated 4.1 out of 5Â by 10 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5Â by fuz3nes5 Read the color description Looks white but is actually creamy/brownish....cheap material/looking, not worth it to me...got xs, i'm 5'2 110 34A and it is big, reaches down to my knees, waist is tight enough but something about it doesn't work, perhaps its the color....wouldn't recommend.... 5.9.2012
Rated 3 out of 5Â by katieh Short and Sheer I think this dress is beautiful, but for me it was a tunic at 5'9". Also, the ivory is incredibly sheer. The slip it came with did nothing, so I tried mine with the seamless tank slip in ivory. Once I had a proper slip on the dress looked beautiful, but it was still a little short. The details were awesome and the mesh fabric was soft, but the length and sheerness killed it for me. 4.23.2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rochelle A winner I've been looking for a mess slip dress that I could wear underneath clothing and on top of clothing. You can do both with this dress. The appliqués are a little bulky, but one stitch holds them in place and can be easily removed. The belt waist part really adds shape to your body. It's so flattering. I took the plain slip out and plain to wear it with more flattering body cons, slip dresses, and beneath tunic sweaters so the mess shows. The photos do not do this dress justice. I put this dress on and should my boyfriend. He said, Wow! That's one of the better dresses you have from FP (I have a lot). 2.5.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by gialovesfreepeople Would not recommend.... I found this dress to be incredibly frumpy. Does not look like it does on the blonde! 2.2.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by MegLew Great Dress! I wore this dress to my engagement party and received many compliments. You 100% need to purchase an additional slip to wear underneath otherwise it is see-thru. I ordered a size S and wish I had gotten an XS because it was slightly big in the elastic part of the waist. Overall, a very pretty dress! Can be worn casual or dressy. My party was outdoors by a pool so I paired it with nude wedges. 9.24.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by ScienceGirl Mesh and Crochet Delight! I think this dress is stunning and love almost everything about it. I measure 38-26-36 and wear a 36C bra. I purchased a M. I typically wear a M in dresses and tops to fit my bust and rib cage, but I have been exchanging about 30% of my purchases for S recently. In this case, M fit perfectly. I can't speak for others, but many FP dresses (including this one) are cut to hug my rib cage, not where my natural waist is located. I would describe this dress as having an empire waist. For this reason, I find the provided waist measurements misleading. The "waistband" on the M measures 30" around relaxed and could stretch quite a bit more due to the elastic at the back, but since it hits at my rib cage, it is not too large. The bust on the outer shell of the M measures 37" and the mesh has quite a bit of give. The color of the mesh is well represented by the studio photos, but the crochet is indeed an antique color. I think the deeper color crochet lends a rich vintage feel to the dress. The dress is well made and the crochet especially is unique and well finished. The provided slip is OK, but I agree with the other reviewer that the ivory Seamless Mini Slip looks much better under the shell. The slip that comes with it is a bit sloppy and does not allow the dress to fall as nicely as it does over the lighter colored bodycon fit of the Seamless Mini Slip. The dress falls to mid thigh on me, not much different than on the model. Very happy with this addition to my "bohemian romantic" wardrobe. 9.12.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by lexielexers BEAUTIFUL I absolutely love this dress. When i tried it on it looked very elegant and was tts. 9.8.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Francheska Highly Recommeded I adore this dress. First off it makes my waist look really small. I love that it is a light dress and that it has some sheer element to it. The color is not truly white but more of a cream or light sand color. The length for me is no problem as it hits about three inches above my knee. I can't find anything bad to say about this dress so ladies buy one before they sell out! 8.6.2012

Solid Defense Not Enough For Hilbert Men To Claim Win
- Release Date:

- (716) 649-7900 ext. 333
HAMBURG, NY – The Hilbert College men's basketball team lost a battle to the Alfred University Saxons, 67-62 on November 26. The Hawks (1-4) found themselves down by seven at the half, and came out ready to win in the second half. Hilbert out-scored the Saxons in the second half, but could never pull away for the win.
In the first 20 minutes of play, Alfred totaled 26 points in the paint, compared to just eight from Hilbert. Hilbert tied the game up at the 4:31 second mark, but never had the chance to take the lead again for the remainder of the game. The Hawks had solid play from their bench players, recording 29 points for the night, but that still wasn't enough to beat Alfred. Alfred shot 43% from the field for the game, and 67% from the free throw line, while Hilbert shot only 31% from the field and 57% from the charity stripe.
Dan McFarland led the Hawks with 18 points and three steals. Chris Parrott continued his hot-streak this season, adding 15 points, six boards and three blocks. Jordan VanDunk could not be stopped on the glass, grabbing 10 rebounds.
Alfred's Josh Parker put together a solid performance with 22 points, 11 rebounds, eight assists, and three steals. Dan Totten contributed with 10 points and eight rebounds, while Pat Hollenbeck also added 10 points.
The Hawks will be back in action again on November 30, when they travel to Cazenovia College. Their next home contest is on December 10 at 2pm versus AMCC foe Pitt-Greensburg.
Hilbert College, located in suburban Hamburg, N.Y., south of Buffalo, is a private four-year college founded in 1957 in the Catholic Franciscan tradition. With nearly 1,100 students, Hilbert is a dynamic Western New York college that offers career-focused majors, including one of the top criminal justice programs in the region, and more than 50 minors and concentrations.

GMC launches high school summer programBy Lucia Suarez
STAFF WRITER | February 02,2013POULTNEY During the summer, students want to take a break from rigorous academia, but many also want to explore their interests with dedicated teachers.
To help accomplish this, Green Mountain College is now offering the Vermont Summer Academy for high school students.
We thought this would be a good way for young people who may have an interest (in a certain topic) but never had a way in their high school curriculum to explore it in depth, said GMC spokesman Kevin Coburn. Students will be able to live in a college atmosphere that may help them evaluate what they want to do in the future.
GMC President Paul Fonteyn said in a statement: We deliberately picked subjects that are areas of strength in our curriculum.
He added: Our faculty has developed cutting-edge programs that prepare graduates to be thoughtful and productive professionals as they enter promising career fields. We have tremendous resources and knowledge to share with high school students who are just beginning to seriously examine their career choices.
The one-week summer courses include adventure education, creative arts, culinary arts, design and build, eco-construction, fiction writing and poetry, environmental studies, forensic science, journalism, college prep writing and veterinary science.
The course curriculum will be designed with a lot of input from GMC professors, Coburn said, but the college is in the process of hiring teachers with various specialties to run the actual classes this summer.
We will make an effort (to ensure) classes are small to replicate the atmosphere of GMC (during the school year), Coburn said.
The week-long classes will run from July 21 through Aug. 10 at GMCs campus in downtown Poultney, except for the culinary courses which will be held at the GMC Lodge at Killington Resort from July 7-20.
Students can sign up for as little as one week, but may attend more weeks with different classes.
Tuition ranges from $1,175 for one week to $3,000 for three weeks. For culinary classes, the tuition is $1,275 for one week and $2,450 for two weeks. These prices include dorm lodging, three meals a day, course materials, facilities, and academic field trips.
Students will be living in the dorms, eating at the dining hall, and having structured prgrams in the evening, Coburn said. Its a hybrid of an intensive academic program with summer camp.
Students will also have access to the colleges facilities, including the athletic fields, gymnasium and swimming pool.
