That's cool and all, but official sites are the most heavily moderated of any sites talking about a game, and are designed for a game to "put the best foot forward", i.e. marketing.
Which is fine, but don't expect people to take everything on there at face value. Most of us have seen plenty of "good demos" before, and that in itself means nothing.
Which does not mean the game is a scam, or bad, but there needs to be more before: 1. Getting remotely excited, and 2. Forking over any cash for a "pre-alpha", which does not seem like a good idea in the present MMO market.

I just wanted to point out that their forums have the least moderation out of any game forum I've seen. The only person I can remember ever banned was Convo because he was making personal attacks on the CoS Team.
i personally put my money in, even if it has .00001% chance of being made. I want this game and I have no reason not to believe them yet (I'm not jaded enough to believe that everyone is a crook yet).
Many others feel the same way. I also personally would rather spend money helping fund this game than get milked for cash from ArenaNet in their Gem Store, or any other cash shop game that's already out and is complete crap.
I still have some hope in the industry, but it's starting to fade. I do what I can personally... because I believe indies are the future of the industry and not the big money companies.
Everyone has their own opinion though.. and I don't go around flaming people in other game forums for their choices. It's sad that most people can't do the same.

There is a big difference between "flaming people" and having some healthy scepticism, especially due to: 1. Just about every MMO release in the last 7 years, and, 2. Every indie/small company MMO released since EvE have not lived up to expectations, even reasonable ones.
So, if you want the "party line" I suggest going back to the official site, people actually discuss MMOs here, both the positive and negative.
I am sure they are more gentile back there.
Yea..I don't get the blind faith here and it annoys me that the same person who reported me to this site continues to throw out subtle shots towards me.. As my concerns are totally legit at this point..be a fan boy for this game.. That's fine but just because the same person who updates the original forums and post here tells you it's all true because its on their "forum". Doesn't make it true...the bottom line is they have 8 years and not even a playable demo.. I deal with facts and the facts are this company has nothing to show you. They also have no investors... They just have a bunch of words on a website. You can't dispute that. On top of all of that.. If someone is going to ask for your money.. You should demand to see a little something... Or ask some Devs in the industry their opinion on what this company is promising. That would be a very interesting discussion.

This is simply not true. While I get why people are being skeptic - this is afterall something that hasn't been done before - if you take a look at kickstarter you would see that the vast majority of games show little more than concept art and even less details about how things work in-game. I have yet to see any developer offer as much information at this stage of development as CoS does. One of the raffle rewards is logging into the game world THIS MONTH and taking a tour seeing all the current workings of the game.
Now you're right to feel like it's too risky to throw a dinner's worth of money on a potential indie game seeing the past record of some indies, and you don't have to, but calling something a scam without a solid proof other than "others did it" is at best misleading.
It's less of a blind faith and more of a hopeful support for the idea that we are tired of the same old. Hell, I would be getting more than my money's worth just by keeping this hope alive for a few years regardless if the game gets released or not, and from what I've seen I'd say it has pretty good chances of being released and successful.
I don't understand that sense of entitlement. Many are happy to donate to help the team (hence the term donate), and anything the devs choose to offer is just a "thank you token" and they're actually offering a lot! I think you're misunderstanding something: supporting the team with money is actually optional, no one is forcing anyone to do so. You are a supporter, not an investor or a share holder to ask for inner mechanics.
It's simple. Don't like/trust this game? no problem, go have a nice dinner with your partner. Some of us feel like our money here is well-spent and it's silly of you to try and speak for all of us dectating what should be of value to us.
I'm not trying to change anyones mind. I already said in a prior post by all means donate away. Eventually we will find out who is right and wrong with all this. I actually havent looked at this thread for over a week until today.. I gotta tread lightly as I already got a warning for "trolling". I think the naysayers are having a legitmate discussion here. I would be willing to bet in the near future there will be a post on thier site claiming they are close to Alpha but if they could only get people to donate a little bit more...
For the record. MY orignal issue was when I posted my concern that the Raffle was never intended to be honored from Kickstarter. At first I was told that people had to repledge because they didn't have the emails(that was their initial response) but after I pushed a bit they stated to just PM them. Only after I called them on it. That's where I started to have my doubts. I'm entiled to them and I could be totally wrong. I didn't like the way things went down, so here I am.. Doubtful you guys who put your money behind this will ever get a playable product. That's how I feel, and nothing to date they have done has me even close to changing my mind. You say we have no proof, well.. neither do you.. They are going to let someone in game in a month huh? I have an idea.. Why don't they let this site or another gaming site inside the game?

The facts exist and what they say they have developed is exactly what they have done. Seems to me you are sulking because you were made to look like a complete and utter fool.
That said you are allowed an opinion, even if it is i'll informed. I remember why i stopped posting here too many people trying to look clever when really they are too short sighted to understand the future. What CoS are developing is complex and difficult but not impossible , I am a designer myself and can appreciate what they are doing.

Anyone with at least a half a brain approaches an indie MMO with skepticism, and when the answer to every question is danced around it just makes people that much more skeptical.
There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

What we have is a disagreement on what this company is actually capable of and in my opinion how honest they are really being about what they promise.. I would call you misguided for drinking that kool aid.. Tell me..Where are they? What proof have they shown you to actually back up what you are saying? All we see is bad graphics...That's not misinformation.. What they created the most amazing engine and tools but they are not going to sell it like the Hero Engine, they are just going to hold onto it and ask for donations to fund the game since the investors they showed it to must not of been too impressed...I mean if the engine was really that amazing don't you think that would get their attention? They are making some pretty incredible claims here for a MMO. I'm just not buying that they are selling and the reasons why have already been debated on this forum. But like I said, time will tell. You can always PM me again like you did when I predicted what would happen with the raffles and tell me I was right.. You might want to rethink that comment about me looking like an utter fool.. Not even sure where that came from considering what I posted and when I posted about it. If anything, I was correct and I was just holding them accountable..

You are misguided; And I am laughing my socks off because you are plain wrong. The game is exactly where the developers say it is at . Some of the Kickstarter Videos show a lot more than vaporware, you are just too bitter and blinkered to see it (Remember Pre-Alpha).
The raffles delivered exactly what they said they would , you dug yourself a hole made a fool of yourself had a good rant and your ignorance here just shows that ever since you are trying to I don't know create some form of "Cult of Convo".
If you look at current MMOs and the ammount of design effort they put in against an extended design period , then you may realise that a lot more can be acheived if the correct focus and effort is applied. Some of us understand this and we are not all fools far from it.
Your petty nature must come from some where other than this game , remember the core here is the design and toolsets to deliver something truly different. I can only applaud this development team for putting so much effort into their design.
But why am I explaining something you already know? Be Bitter and be twisted but remember it won't do you any good.

Right but some of us have been around long enough to remember countless mmorpgs with videos from some early alpha. Many of those never launched, that was vaporware. In fact, ill have to do some digging, but i know more than one was using this site and the hype generated by claims of an awesome mmorpg in the works, as a lunchpad to get investors and or sell their game engine.
Im not interested in the personal back and forth you two seem to have here, just that ive been down this road before, this isnt my first rodeo, ive heard it all before. Its not this specific game companies fault i tend to giggle at outrageous claims of some indy developer with some screenshots and a video, its the countless companies that came before them with the same pitch, the same promises (not specifics but the general promise of *instert hype buzzword*)
Hell even the mega companies with 500+ developers working round the clock and mega million budgets seem to have issues getting just the fundamental basics down right...
I wish these guys the best of luck, but no formal support, no money, until theres a playable beta, player feedback, and more than hopes and dreams with screenshots and a few free camera videos of a couple of places.
Also, there was a big point being made by the guy your arguing with. If this game engine was absolutely stunning and revolutionary...they wouldnt need financial support from customers. If the game was setting the stage to break the mold, again, this all wouldnt be needed. That isnt to say that its all a scam, just that with what they have now, they are unable to gather serious 3rd party support and invetment, and need to turn to players for help....which is ok...but should be an indication as to where they are with the game and its revolutionary game engine...and to me that seems like the issue...
From what i can gather this game is going to be like marrowind on a private invite realm, where you can kill an npc and have it change the course of the game, and then port back to a persistant world where you cant do that but can participate in normal mmorpg repeatable stuff. Again its sad i need to make assumptions like this but the info isnt out there, and what is avalible is very vauge and open ended. That shouldnt be the case if they are asking players for help finacially.
Ill be the right all the supporters of this once they get an open beta or launch ready client, despite im more proned to froth at the mouth over full loot sandboxes, which this wont be, but ill always support quality work that isnt setting the bar at a wow with nicer graphics and a gew extra gimmicks...and this doesnt seem to be the case for this game...
ill support this when theres an actual game to support however.
And i dont think im being out of line with this frame of mind, i think its more than deserved considering how a LOT of these games end up...

Just barely above 5%. Which doesn't surprise me too much considering the lack of any explanation on the kickstarter proper for much of the rewards/tiers/items and their significance. Most posts choose to just say "Go here and read" instead of providing the information within the kickstarter itself. And well, a severe lack of public/online presence (least from what I've seen) didn't help much either.
Is this game in beta yet?!

Tool works great. Price is good too. Screen is little small so you may need to take few photos. Quality is OK at best. Bottom line is it does the job. If you want to pay around $2K than go ahead. Yes I would recommend this tool.

I always had fear that running on concrete will destroy my leg joints, since I don't have any good tennis shoes and run with all the grace and good looks of a rhino. I even considered paying a few lessons. Luckily at the moment there is a nice natural path through the woods not 5 minutes from my block. But I shall move away in a few months :-(
I hope it will help me overcome this problem with practical advices. Thumbs up, it's just the article I need right now.

I would go running along a good path wearing my regular running shoes, then take them off when I got near the lake, then put them back on for the way home. I worked my way up from 5 minutes of barefoot running up to about half an hour. Once all the muscles in my feet and legs were working as they should, the wear patterns in my shoes started looking even and my knees and back stopped getting strained so I could put on more miles each week without burning myself out. About 9 months after I started barefoot running I did a half marathon in just under an hour and a half (not barefoot!) and felt great the days after.

MBA for Professionals Student Handbook - Financial Policies and Procedures
MBA for Professionals students pay a set tuition rate determined by their semester of entry. Tuition covers the cost of all course offerings, and required books. Personal supplies are not included. Laptop computer and software purchases are the responsibility of the student.
The tuition rate of the semester of entry remains consistent for MBA professionals students throughout the six (6) consecutive semesters of the program.
MBA for Professionals students who remain enrolled in the program after the six consecutive semesters of enrollment, will pay the tuition rate of the current academic year.
Tuition rates change each year with new rates becoming effective in September. Tuition rates are based on the guidelines of the Willamette University Board of Trustees.
Atkinson School MBA for Professionals alumni may take Atkinson School MBA elective courses at a rate of 50% of current tuition.
MBA for Professionals Dean's Achievement Scholarship recipients who enrolled in the MBA-P program, prior to September 2011 receive a scholarship of $1,000. MBA-P scholarship recipients who began the program in fall semester 2011 receive a scholarship of $1,500. All recipients have excellent credentials and a GMAT score of 600 or higher.
The MBA for Professionals Dean's Achievement Scholarship may be received for a maximum of 6 semesters. The scholarship is automatically renewable within the six semester limit if the student meets of all of the following requirements:
1) The student maintains a semester and cumulative gpa of 3.3 or higher in MBA for Professionals coursework, and
2) The student maintains good status within the academic policies and codes of conduct of the Atkinson School and Willamette University.
Willamette University employees are not eligible for participation in the Dean's Achievement Scholarship program. In addition, MBAP students who are recipients of other Willamette University scholarship funds, including funds provided in partnership with the Yellow Ribbon scholarship program for veterans, are not eligible to participate in the Dean's Achievement scholarship program.
Cancellation of Scholarships
Scholarship recipients who have been placed on conduct probation or found to have committed plagiarism, cheating, or unauthorized possession of academic materials will lose all scholarship assistance awarded by the Atkinson School. The student may make a written appeal to the Associate Dean/Director of Admission, who will take the appeal to the Dean. The Dean's decision is final and binding. Definitions of the terms "plagiarism," "cheating," "unauthorized possession of academic materials," and "conduct probation" are available in the conduct section of this handbook.
Financial Aid Suspension and Drug Related Offenses
The Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA), enacted in 2008, states that a student who has been convicted of any offense under any Federal or State law involving the possession or sale of a controlled substance shall not be eligible to receive any Federal or State grant, loan, or work study during the period beginning on the date of such conviction and ending after the interval specified in the following table:
Conviction involving possession of a controlled substance removes eligibility for:
First offense ................................... 1 year
Second offense ............................... 2 years
Third offense .................................. Indefinite
Conviction involving the sale of a controlled substance removes eligibility for:
First offense ................................... 2 years
Second offense ............................... Indefinite
A student who has lost eligibility may become eligible before the end of the stated ineligibility period if:
a) he/she satisfactorily completes a drug rehabilitation program and passes two unannounced drug tests; or
b) his/her conviction is reversed, set aside, or otherwise rendered null.
Effective July 1, 2010, students who lose eligibility for Federal and State financial aid due to a drug conviction may regain eligibility if they successfully pass two unannounced drug tests conducted by a drug rehabilitation program.
If you have specific questions regarding how the Federal requirements will impact your financial aid following a drug conviction, contact the Office of Financial Aid: email@example.com 503-370-6273 or toll free 1-877-744-3736
Health Insurance Requirement
All students enrolled in the Willamette MBA for Professionals program who are enrolled for four or more credits of course work are required to carry health insurance and provide proof of insurance coverage. Willamette University automatically places students on a third party health insurance carrier policy.
The student health insurance policy fee will appear on your first statement for tuition and fees and yearly thereafter at the beginning of the September term. If you have coverage under another plan, you may waive out of Willamette's student insurance plan online between July 1, 2011 and September 21, 2011. If you do not provide "proof of coverage" by September 21st, you will be enrolled in the health insurance policy and assessed the fees. To learn more about Willamette student health insurance plan and the waiver process go to: http://www.willamette.edu/dept/health/insurance/
Billing Process for Tuition
You will receive your billing statement for tuition, fees and other incurred charges electronically several weeks prior to the start of each semester.

Willamette University Withdrawal Refund Policy
Students are admitted to Willamette with the understanding that they will remain until the end of the semester unless unforeseen circumstances necessitate their withdrawal or unless they are dismissed or suspended. Students who are suspended or expelled from the University forfeit all refunds of tuition and fees.
In compliance with the Higher Education Amendments of 1998 (Section 668.22), Willamette University's refund policy is as follows:
1. A student's withdrawal date is the date the student began the institution's withdrawal process or officially notified the institution of intent to withdraw; or the midpoint of the period for a student who leaves without notifying the institution.
2. Refunds for tuition for full withdrawals will be prorated, per day, based on the academic calendar up to the 60% point in the semester.
If a student drops below full-time (8.0 credits) but remains enrolled, after the 10th day of the semester (the Add/Drop Period), they will not have their tuition charge adjusted but will be billed as a full-time student for the semester.
3. Withdrawing students are responsible for applicable room and meal plan charges through the date they checked out of their campus housing with Residential Services.
4. Students withdrawing for medical reasons may petition for a Medical Withdrawal. In the case of an approved Medical Withdrawal, the student refund is the same as a student who withdraws from the University. However, the student's transcript will indicate a withdrawal for medical reasons. The Application for Medical Withdrawal may be obtained from the Registrar's Office.
5. Health insurance charges and student body fees will not be refunded to withdrawing students.
6. In the case of a student's death during a term, a full tuition refund will be granted to the student's estate.
Students, who withdraw and have received financial aid, will receive their refund after the required portion of their financial aid is returned to the aiding programs. The required portion of financial aid that is returned to the aiding programs is calculated as follows:
- Title IV aid and all other aid is earned in a prorated manner on a per day basis based on the academic calendar up to the 60% point in the semester. After the 60% point, no refunds are granted for tuition.
- Recalculation of financial aid is based on the percent of earned aid using the following federal formula: Percent Earned = Number of days completed up to the withdrawal date divided by total days in the semester
- Federal financial aid is returned to the federal government based on the percent of unearned aid using the following formula: Aid to be returned = (Percent earned × the amount aid that was eligible to be disbursed) – aid that was actually disbursed.
- When financial aid is returned, the student may owe a balance to the University. The student should contact the Loans and Student Accounts Office to make arrangements to pay the balance.
Questions regarding this refund policy should be directed to the Loans and Student Accounts Office located on the first floor of Waller Hall on the Salem campus.

See iPhone in action.Watch Video
Data defenders.
For the top-tier IT professionals at Unisys, iPhone makes security simple.
Information technology is a double-edged sword. Digital networking makes large organizations more agile and productive, but it can also open the door to intruders, snooping competitors and foreign operatives. Network administrators are tasked with securing servers even as other employees enter sensitive data in cloud-based spreadsheets, or work remotely with laptops full of proprietary data.
As the risks multiply, its good to have Unisys on your side. With roots extending back to 1950s-vintage mainframes, this global IT consultancy provides industrial-strength hardware and critical security services to a select list of government agencies and multinational corporations. Name a data- or computer-intensive field, and Unisys is in the game: biometric security, financial transactions, radio-frequency identification, even weather prediction. And now the company can deliver these leading-edge services with greater speed, reach and flexibility than ever before, thanks to iPhone.
"iPhone has become an integral part of our business," says Ted Davies, President of Unisys Federal Systems, who manages accounts such as the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security. Since Unisys adopted iPhone a year ago, the device now connects one-third of the companys mobile workers — "and that number grows every day," Davies notes.
With iPhone, Unisys staff can remotely access Exchange email, contacts and calendars, send and receive attachments such as spreadsheets and presentations, and view external and internal websites using the built-in Safari browser. "Whether its the middle of the night or the middle of a meeting, clients can get hold of us and send us things, and we can easily review them and respond immediately," he says.
But iPhone does more than enhance personal productivity: It weaves Unisys employees worldwide into a unified mobile workforce. "iPhone allows us to do our job better than weve been able to do it in the past, and to be connected in a way we couldnt have imagined a few years ago," says Tip Underwood, Vice President of Sales and Management Support, who works with the Unisys group responsible for customs and border security.
For example, meeting service-level agreements in the companys widespread data centres once required round-the-clock onsite administrators. Now a custom iPhone application monitors quality of service throughout the distributed infrastructure. If anything goes wrong, technicians can be dispatched directly to the trouble spots. "Our IT folks are wildly excited by the possibilities," Underwood says. "Theyre asking, 'What other applications can we develop?"
At Unisys, a critical prerequisite for custom iPhone apps is security. "Unisys is in the business of securing data, applications and systems," Underwood says, "and iPhone lets us make sure were addressing those concerns." Before allowing a mobile device to log onto one of its networks, the company subjects it to a rigorous validation process, requiring device certificates, user certificates and strong passcodes. In addition, Unisys takes advantage of data encryption and remote wipe with Microsoft Exchange on iPhone 3GS to make sure proprietary information doesnt fall into the wrong hands. "A wide range of aspects give us confidence that iPhone is a secure device," Underwood says.
Thwarting intruders is a top priority not only internally, but for Unisys customers as well. To address these needs, the company is developing new apps such as Unisys Perimeter Security, a prototype program for iPhone that extends the reach of systems that lock down facilities like airports and factories. Traditionally, security personnel are stuck behind banks of video screens; when one detects an intruder, he notifies a guard on patrol, who comes running. The Unisys app automates the process, piping video directly to iPhones carried by mobile officers. The system maps the officers locations, and when it detects an incident, it dispatches them directly. Facial recognition algorithms help track the intruder from camera to camera, and the video is relayed via iPhone, leading security forces to the right location while providing full situational awareness.
The development time for this app? A weekend. Underwood credits this quick turnaround to the iPhone Software Development Kit (SDK), which gives developers maximum functionality with minimum effort. The SDKs Map Kit provides familiar online mapping features, while the UI Kit ensures a consistent look and feel that helps users get up and running quickly. "Its exciting not only for the development team, but for the management team to see so many new opportunities to meet client needs," Underwood says.
This excitement is made possible by the combination of utility, security and flexibility that allows iPhone to fulfill a broad range of functions quickly and efficiently.
"Weve seen the major trends around the Internet: mobility, device choice and cloud computing," Davies says. "Now we have a device that is being rapidly embraced by three generations of knowledge workers, and that companies are very pleased to adopt. iPhone gives Unisys all the ingredients to deliver user-driven services — services the client needs, on a mobile device the user loves." For Unisys, thats a sure-fire formula for keeping employees productive, customers satisfied and networks safe.

Sort by
- Looks great on wall
- Lots of storage options
- Wide bins fit a variety
- More secure construction
- Wish it had more hooks
Best Uses
- Coat rack
- Mud room storage
- Tool organizer
I solved the hook problem by adding my own in between the ones included. It still looks great and added four more hooks. I also secured the rack assembly with some garden wire to make more secure. Overall, I live this shelf and have purchased four of them!
- Attractive
- Functional
- Too dark in color
Best Uses
- Entryway
We use this product in our entryway and it is great and stylish. The cubbies are great for keeping hats, mittens and dog leashes with in reach, but out of the way. We thought the grey would be more of a lighter color, more galvanized, but we liked the product enough to keep it.
- Darling
- Practical
- Poor packaging
- Poor quality
Best Uses
- Storage
Wanted something versatile for storage in my laundry/mud room, and this does fit the bill. However, the product is poorly manufactured...the hooks are barely attached to the cubby, and in fact, one was loose when I received it. I had to get it welded back on...didn't want the hassle of returning it. Some of the wires are already broken. The packaging was in shambles when I received it, which probably explains the broken hook.
- Easy to assembly
- Nice lines
- Sturdy
- Needs hanging hardware
Best Uses
- Catch-All
- Mudroom
- Sports
- Utility

Google added a new antivirus software to Google Pack and this time the program doesn't try to convince you to buy a paid version. Google Pack added the free version of the Avast antivirus, but only for the following languages: French, German, Italian, Czech, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, and Polish. I installed the software using the Italian interface, but both Google Pack and Avast were installed in English.
For some reason, the English version of Google Pack lets you install a different security software: Spyware Doctor with Anti-Virus, which replaced Norton Security Scan. Both Spyware Doctor and Norton Security Scan offered limited or no real-time protection and Spyware Doctor used an outdated signature database.
"The Avast Free Antivirus included in the Google Pack is the same as our regular Avast Free Antivirus. Following the philosophy of Google and Avast, the product is fully featured and does not constantly try to up-sell users to a premium product," explains Vincent Steckler.
The most recent tests from AV-Comparatives.org show that Avast, Avira and Microsoft Security Essentials are the best free antivirus software. "This year, avast! showed big improvements in its detection rates (esp. in the second half of 2009) and reduced its number of false alarms. Its on-demand scanning speed is one of the fastest. The recently released avast! v5 includes further enhancements (like a new graphical user interface) and new protection features."
In December, Avast's blog announced that the software will offer users the option to install Google Chrome. Some may call it software bundling, but it's not as disingenuous as the Google Earth promotion. "Starting in mid-November, we will be giving our new users an option to install Google Chrome when installing Avast. We are not forcing Chrome on users. It is entirely up to the user–to download/install and nothing is hidden."

The new interface of Google Docs, which is slowly rolled out to all users, brings the service one step closer to an online storage service. The "items by type" menu replaced "PDFs" with "Files", suggesting that Google Docs will allow users to upload any type of files.
Google Docs also added the advanced search options that are available in Gmail:
* exact phrase matching ("todo list")
* negative matching (summer -trip)
* disjunctive matching (budget OR invoice)
* built-in labels (is:starred, is:hidden)
* collaborators: to find the documents shared by Michael Robinson, you need to search for: from:email@example.com, assuming that's his email address. The problem is that you need to know the email address, since the operator doesn't support (partial) names.
At some point in the near future, Google Docs will allow you to upload any type of files. Some of the files can be edited, other files can be previewed online, while the rest of them are only stored online. For example, PDF files can't be edited online, but you can view them and share them.
It will be interesting to see how Google Drive integrates with other Google services that store files (Gmail, Picasa Web Albums, YouTube) and to find the free quota limits.
Tony Ruscoe found in January an internal Google document about Cosmo, described as an upgrade from GDrive, a service that was only available to Google's employees. "We're in the process of migrating all Google Doc accounts to Cosmo," mentioned the document.
Update: Kevin Mohr found an interesting image referenced in Google Docs' code: . It's a folder icon that includes Google Chrome's logo, so it could be related to Google Chrome OS, a browser-centric operating system that will probably use Google Drive to store files online. There's also an icon for videos which suggests that videos will be uploaded to YouTube.

Dislikes DOT parkway plan
As an observer at Thursday's meeting regarding the widening of the Hitchcock Parkway, I was, once again, amazed how politicians work. The representatives of the S.C. Department of Transportation assured us that they had listened to those present at the previous meeting and that they had read all the forms they had asked us to fill out. The result was that they had understood that 75 percent of those in Aiken were against the widening of the Hitchcock Parkway to four lanes. A promise was made to re-design the plans to satisfy our wishes. Ten percent of the people wanted bicycles and walking paths, so they have to be made happy, too. In order to show us how understanding they were, they promised us to show the new plans in a few months before they would go ahead with the construction. So far, so good.
However, in order to obtain the green light for the funding from the S.C. State of Transportation Infrastructure Bank to receive the $9.5 million for this project, the road will have to widened to four lanes.
Did those officials really think that we are so stupid that we did not catch this? I consider that an insult. Taking out a few bushes from the middle is not going to satisfy us.
South Carolina has a very bad record because of bad drivers. My car insurance premium goes up every year, not because I am a bad driver, but because of the other bad drivers. Do we want more accidents? Don't make this a race track.
A solution would be to leave the parkway as it is. Make the whole stretch one speed limit and make more left and right turn lanes. Problem solved and it will cost the tax payers a lot less money.

بواسطة dfjstfixtfi يونيو 18, 2010
Angus is an vulnerable and insecure person. Unfortunately, because of this he feels the need to push others down below him because it makes him feel better about himself if he sees someone suffer more than he has. He pretends he's hardcore and dirty but really he's a kind boy who's upset about how he treats others, especially girls. He flirts with all of them. However he seems to have done this so much he cant stop. and twisted the rules of life and love and he looks at the world a different way. He needs love though. He needs someone to care for him. He has a lot of love in his heart, else he wouldn't hurt the way he does. He's beautiful. He just doesn't see it. So show him.

Culbreath: No secret: I love the Winter OlympicsWritten by Matt 'Shaggy' Culbreath | | firstname.lastname@example.com
I mean, I love the Olympics in general, but the Winter Olympics are my drug. Hockey, skiing, skating, bobsled, curling, even snowboarding? Love it. I'll watch it all. I'll watch it live. I'll stream that stuff, I don't care.
(You mean to tell me that some of this stuff will start at 5 in the morning? Maybe I won't stream everything…)
And like literally everyone else, Sochi has me nervous.
I'm used to Summer Olympics being drenched in controversy over the host country: Beijing had "free speech zones" and disappearing stray animals, Athens still hasn't recovered from the money they dumped into hosting in 2004, and all signs point to similar problems for Brazil in 2016.
But the Winter Olympics? Granted, I haven't been around forever, but everything always goes so smoothly. Vancouver was a model city, Turin got through with only some delays with their metro, and Salt Lake City ran smoothly, even with September 11th fresh in their memory.
But the word started coming in early this week as media descended on Sochi: they are not ready. People pulled in to find sidewalks and streets still being paved. Others checked into their hotel rooms, only to find them still under construction. Watch your step, because some manholes were without covers.
The athletes aren't faring much better. Pictures of team lodging includes 3 twin beds side-by-side in one room. How about 2 toilets in one bathroom, with no divider? Cozy.
Out on the courses, danger as well. American snowboarder Shaun White was supposed to compete in the slopestyle event, a new sport for 2014. But while practicing on the course, he jammed his wrist. Not the first injury before the games even began: two other athletes also suffered injury during practice: one medal contender broke his collarbone, another suffered a concussion. White pulled out of the event, saying that the course was too dangerous, and that he'll instead just focus on the halfpipe event instead.
That's not to mention the political strife surrounding these games. Much has already been said about the plight of the LGBT athlete in a country that has laws designed to persecute them. Hacker activists are looking to take advantage of the weakened infrastructure to promote their causes. Specific security threats from terrorist groups will have people on edge up until the closing ceremonies.
Do I think everything will go off okay? I hope so. That's about the best I can offer. But at the start, it'll be a lot like Beijing: watching through my fingers as they cover my eyes. Hopefully, as the days go on, I'll be able to relax and enjoy the action. For now, I can just wish good luck to all of the athletes, both on the ice and off.

Superior Court Judge Trent Brown presided over the June 20 hearing and will be the presiding judge over the trial. The murder trial is scheduled to being Aug. 26.
Attorney Frank Hogue is representing Moss, and the case will be prosecuted by District Attorney Fred Bright assisted by Assistant District Attorney Keagan Waystack.
Hogue told the court that he hopes the funds for the defense's expert witness does not cause delay. He said he had communication with the public defender's office in Atlanta but has not received an answer.
Moss is charged with malice murder and felony murder in the death of Henry County businessman William Douglas Coker. The victim was 67. Law enforcement officers found his body under the defendant's back porch in River North March 18, 2012.
The trial was originally scheduled to start May 28 but was postponed because Hogue said he could not properly defend his client without an expert witness. He stated at the time that his client's only defense is insanity.
