I saw this lipstick in a blog once I passed a long time wanting it, and now that I have I can say that it's a very weird lipstick. But I like it. At first the orange tone is a little bit off, but not enough neon, a very cold color, but then you blend it a little bit and pink comes out – and in pictures it looks great! So I'd say this color is on the orange-pink verge, very unique. As I said, it's a nice lipstick for when you are going to take lots of pictures.
I have a medium/ olive skintone with yellow undertones. My lips are slightly darker.
I was hoping that this colour would be the best one from the collection but i'm very much on the line about this. When I put this on from the tube, it was really pastel orange on the lips – kinda like how some neon pink colours are on me where my lips look a little scary. Think MAC saint germain but in coral and not as bright. There is a plus side though! Once I blotted my lips with tissue to take away the excess, it revealed a beautiful coral nude shade which is perfect. Out of the colours I bought from the MAC All about orange collection (Tart and Trendy, Razzledazzler, Flamingo and Tangerine dream) this was the strangest. It might work better with a gloss over it.
MAC Sushi Kiss Lipstick ($15.00 for 0.10 oz.) is described as a "mid-tone coral cream [with a satin finish]." It's a light-medium, peach-orange with warm undertones and a natural sheen. It had rich, opaque color, and the consistency was creamy, medium-weight, and lasted four hours on me. NARS Lodhi is darker but similar in tone. NARS Lodhi is lighter, less orange. MAC Style Surge is darker and pinker. Burberry Pink Apricot is more beige, less orange. See comparison swatches.

A man was getting ready for work one morning when he heard a commotion out in the parking lot. He looked out of his window and saw two men loading his motorcycle into the back of their van. He ran outside and chased after the van that was pulling away. He managed to slam his fist into the back window of the van, shattering it, according to the report.
He called police who were able to spot the van speeding away. The driver of the van at first did not stop for the blue lights. Charleston County deputies got involved in the chase all the way to Georgetown. The suspects then ditched the van and tried to run off. They were charged with grand larceny and failure to stop for blue lights.

Pronounced: beks-AIR-oh-teen
Classification: Retinoid
Bexarotene belongs to a class of drugs known as retinoids. Retinoids are drugs that are relatives of vitamin A. The exact way bexarotene works is unknown, but it is believed to inhibit the growth of tumor cells.
Bexarotene is given in a pill form or a gel form that is applied to the skin. This article focuses on the gel formulation. The gel should be applied initially once every other day. The frequency should be increased, as tolerated, to once a day, then twice a day, then three times a day and finally four times a day.
How to Apply:
Safety Considerations When Receiving Bexarotene:
Patients are unlikely to develop system-wide side effects, such as nausea and low white blood cell count, while using the topical formula. However, local skin reactions can occur.
While using this gel, your skin may develop redness, itching, burning, irritation and scaling in the area of application. Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun, which can result in severe sunburn or rash. Sun sensitivity can last even after you stop taking the medication. Avoid the sun as much as possible, as even a little exposure can cause a burn. Do not use a sunlamp or tanning bed. Wear sunglasses and long sleeves/pants to protect your skin and eyes. Talk to your healthcare provider before using topical lotions and moisturizers as these may interfere with the medication if applied to the same areas.

Penske Truck Leasing of Reading will be retrofitting 5,000 of its 2012 and 2013 semi-tractors in its commercial truck rental fleet with new, cutting-edge LED headlights from Truck-Lite.
Penske said it is the first and only commercial truck rental operation to currently offer the headlamp option within its fleet.
The retrofitting will take place over the next 12 months. Penske plans to make these LED lights part of its core standard specifications for all the semi-tractors in its commercial truck rental fleet.
"We've field tested these new lights," said Art Vallely, executive vice president of operations for Penske Truck Leasing.
"They provide greater nighttime visibility compared with traditional headlights, which enhances safety for commercial truck drivers operating our equipment. The high durability of these lights also provides a significant cost-savings from a maintenance standpoint."
The new Truck-Lite LED headlamps were initially developed for military use and offer increased durability, visibility and safety, and tested on vehicles serving in the Iraqi and Afghan theater since 2007.

Sandbox's can have less mechanical "content" providing activies. But instead emphasise on world design, combat mechanics, factional mechanics, player communities, ect. Then allow players to make their own "activities".

I believe that Minecraft is to the next generation of MMO what the DIKU MUD was to the current generation of MMO.
The current generation is based around a text scroller, and the holdovers from that era are limiting factors. Minecraft holds the spot that DIKU muds had back in the day (Full sandbox/full indie/rock-solid popularity) but from the ground up it is designed to be platform-independent, mobile-ready and three dimensional in its control system.
I'd love to see new MMOs derived from the Minecraft scheme in the way that the current generation is derived from DIKU.

A lot of nonesense...
Themepark = mmo built upon cheap server technology that requires zones, zone walls & artificial land.
Sandbox = open world design with sophisticated server technology, that offers 360• content.

And you did very well.
The point is that people don't see the gradations between the
sandbox and the themepark types. Everyone has his own definition.
And as there is no 'official' or any other commonly accepted definition,
the only possibility is to define which features tend to be more
'sandboxy' than others.
With other words, defining which features form a game which has the possibility
for its players to have fun without any straightly developer-given contents
as raids and so on is the way to go.

Let see a sandbox = box filled with sand, where kids can go in with their shovels and shape the sand how they like. There are restriction to what a kid could make due to gravity and type of sand available. But the kids have the full freedom to do what they want in that box. Or if there are other kids there as well, then there is also the restriction of supervision to make sure the kids don't start throwing the sand out the box or keep kids from tearing each other apart.
Translated to games this would be equivelant to give the players a gameworld and the options so they can shape the world how they see fit. There is a ruleset that has to be followed by the players (supervision). This ruleset is controled by the developers. Also the developers have to make sure there is enough content (sand) what players can use to shape the world.
Next we got the Themeparks, these are parks with all types of attractions people can visit. These attractions are picked by the themepark owners. The visitors of the park pick wich attractions they want to do but don't influence directly which attractions will be available in the park.
Translated to games this would be equivelant to a gameworld where players have all types of things to do, they chose which they want to do. But no matter what they do they won't have any influence in things there are to. The devs could indeed put a progression in there making it so that you only gain access to certain content (attractions) when certain conditions are met.

I like themeparks and sandboxes equally well. (A couple people's heads just exploded).

"Crap! Out of mana!!"
While in theory the idea of a sandbox game sounds appealing, it actually doesn't work out to be as nice as people believe it to be, just take Eve Online for example. Recently some guy stole 200 billion ISK from the Ebank, what if you were one of the people who had investments therein and lost your money because of it?
Sandboxes give too much freedom to players, and noone is restricting the social climes, so people can mistreat eachother, for every good thing that can be had there is an equally disadvantageous aspect of it. Scamming and Hacking become far easier with little to no moderators actively seeking and banning people who do this kind of thing. Right now Eve is experiencing a lot of blatant scammers and its the reason I won't touch the game no matter how great it could be. As someone who's been hacked by the gold farmer of my FRIEND who bought gold (actually told me he didn't know i was a gold farmer since my hacked toon delivered his currency, which later helped me regain my acct from the hacker), as someone who's watched people scam or attempt to scam others its just so off-putting. At least in theme-parks you have some regulation, not including wow, botters and farmers are very blatant over there now, and since half of wow's population is in china where the most botters/farmers/sellers are its no surprise. Most other theme-park games provide a disadvantage to people who like to ruin games.
I know my views are weird and why I want the theme-park over the sandbox seems strange, I should be more concerned about content and gameplay however, when I build my experience, when I work so hard to level and achieve things it becomes part of my gaming signature of that game. Having people rip me off or steal it from me just ruins my fun, so I'd rather a game I know will keep that kind of foulplay to a minimum. Not saying all sandboxes are the same, its just how I feel after having lost so much, the biggest thing I want is game security.(swtor and game tokens like the authenticator for wow will also help along with onscreen keyboard against keylogging sons of ...)
I'm not racist, I hate everyone equally.

THIS is the best topic in mmorpg.com
Did you know, I've played over 200 mmorpgs, and I have to say, Ultima online is the Best one.
I am playing it as I type this message, i am running my own shard for 10 yrs now, and have been playing for about 15, and playing Ultima single player for about 20 or so years.
I Love 2D artwork, pixels and all that tiny item dungeon crawling stuff, is the best.
Full loot, Real Danger, Custom Housing, ..
You cant beat it. Everything else is an action RPG. Games like wow, everquest, or w.e you guys call "theme park" games, are basicly Action / stratigy RPGs. NOT true role-playing games (like D&D, Ultima, warhammer, shadowbane etc...)
These "fake" RPGs are just stratigy games in sheeps clothing lol.
You noobs and ur hotkeys, I swear to god, write me a good character sheet, roll the dice, pick up 50 to 100 items in 20 seconds, cus if you dont, youll die AGAIn, and get looted, or ganked.
You guys that play theme-park or w.e type games, dont know what its like to FAIL in an online RPG and lose ALL ur stuff.
Long Live Sandbox RPGs. Cus they are really the only real true role-playing games with real loss and gains.
Starwars Gallaxys is another example of a true-RPG.
make an mmorpg designed like old-school Wizardry, or final fantasy.. now That I would play. ;)

Even when you look at the private shard community, the engine itself is capable of doing incredible things, and the vast permeatations of play are proof of that.

For the benefits of all players , we need hybrids of the two, we need to stop focusing on one or the other, and start building and developing MMO's with both aspects, some might be themepark heavy and others might be sandbox heavy, but from what I can see, any true Sandbox MMO will only have a small population of gamers and Themepark games will be heavy on population in the beginning but it won't last. But if you combine the two, i think we would have the winner formula.

I think Lucioon has the right idea. A mix of the two would really make an exceptional game. I know that sounds like an airy-fairy solution, "Oh just mix them! ^^" but what I mean is have a sandbox world with themepark aspects to it, to add the extra dimension.
For the next generation MMO though, I think what will define it is if it's a living, breathing world on a grand scale. I believe that the future of the genre (which is very uninspired and boring right now for the most part), to quote a developer, lies in a game where you can go over the horizon, only to find another horizon, and another after that. The world definitely needs to matter too; the themepark aspect of levelling is so jarring and immersion-destroying. ALL content has to truly matter, not just end-game. We, the players, need to focus on today, and not tomorrow IMO.

I agree with the 2 above me.
A mix of Sandbox and Themepark would be the best way to go with an MMO (IMHO).
A Dynamic Open World where players can go where they want, when they want (to PvE/PvP/Resource Gather/Craft/Build/etc), but also have NPCs/Terminals that give missions/quests, dungeons to raid and other Themepark elements.
I dont really understand why it has to be one or the other

yeah, a mixture of the two will be good. too much freedom makes people lack focus or make them feel a lack of purpose. Too much themepark mmos will choke the players to grinding and questing (it makes people feel they have to achieve something fast, not at their own pace).

We the gamer was the ones that started labeling the MMO as an Sandbox or Themepark. Before the labeling it was just MMO
Lets get back to it being just an MMO, mix both features however you want, I believe we just want a game that caters to most if not all players and provide us with a living, breathing virtual world that we can call home for a few hours a day without any worries. And having the ability to act out our murderous rage by killing virtual bunnies or ogres without having to go to jail.
So go and find those funds that you need, and lets do it !!!!

iPad 4 vs. Nexus 10: Spec shoot out
In addition to the new Nexus 4 smartphone, which we've already put up against the iPhone 5, Google and Samsung have announced the brand new Nexus 10 big boy tablet now as well. So experience vs. ecosystem, integrated vs. licenses, yadda vs. yadda, we're stacking that up against Apple's just-announced iPad 4 to get a sense of where exactly the different platforms are going, and what they're needing, hardware-wise.
And, of course, we brought the Microsoft Surface and BlackBerry Playbook along for the ride.

iPad 4 vs. Nexus 10: Spec shoot out
At first blush, Microsoft's entry-level Surface tablet seems like a good value compared to the iPad and other tablets. That's because you get double the storage (32 GB versus 16 GB) for the same price as the iPad, $499. But the reason Microsoft started the Surface at 32 GB instead of 16 GB all just because its operating system, Windows RT, takes up approximately 12 GB of space.
For reference, Apple's iPad operating system takes up less than 1 GB. If Microsoft had made the entry-level Surface a 16 GB device, you'd only have about 4 GB free to play around with.
Wait, doesn't the iPad 4 have a 1.2 Front Facing Camera, with 720p 30 fps video recording?
Yup, camera fixed. Checking on Surface pricing.
The iPad is thicker than stated at 0.37 inches. And also heavier at 1.44 pounds. Check for yourself on apples website
Please correct and STOP misleading your readers!
Please get a freakin life, tool bag.
Why does it say "None" for the Nexus 10, but "TBA" for the Surface under data speed, when they're both "Wi-Fi only (for now)"?
None seems harsher than TBA, and since they're "for now", not sure why they're different.
Spec shootouts are great. Thanks for that!
I'd really be interested in seeing some sort of standard bechmarks across the devices (time to display an image from internal memory, internet speed benchmarks, angry birds frames per second).
The devices are soo different in both OS and intent that I think it's hard to tell. You'd THINK the Galaxy would be the fastest. But my iPad gen1 ran rings around my brothers original Nexus pad even though his specs bested mine.
May as well change the SD card on the N10 to "never" as well, since Google hasn't included one on any Nexus device since the Nexus One, and probably won't in the future.
Yeah I wondered that too. Why say "Never" just add no like all the other phones.
OK, fine.......you are a dork!
I never thought that such a place could exist. For once an Apple site posted something, COMPLETELY true and un-biased, and it didn't spew crap about things that would make even a "that time of the month" girl want to slap someone. I actually have respect for these people. It's so weird to find Apple people with an actual intelligence o.O
What good is doing these? I really dont get it. When it comes to tablets, I'm NEVER leaving Google since I spent so much money in the play store. The same is true for some of those using iPads. I'll say one thing, if you are making he switch from Apple to Google, you could buy back all your apps and then some with all the money you'll be saving!
I have to admit. The Nexus ad is quite impressive.
Why does the iPad not show LTE for the network?

The Mocs took their game on the road and competed in the First Tennessee Pavilion in the middle of tailgating prior to the football game against No. 2 Georgia Southern.
"It was a great event and a great atmosphere," stated head coach Heath Eslinger. "Our guys had a lot of fun and I think the fans really enjoyed it."
Sophomore Nick Soto (Spring Hill, Fla.) opened with a 12-1 major decision over freshman Zach Bridson (Sandown, N.H.). Soto was the Southern Conference champion at 133 last season, but has dropped down to 125 for the upcoming slate. He gave the Gold team a 4-0 lead out of the gate.
Freshman Marvin Lopez (Cleveland, Tenn.) was impressive in his debut. He posted a 5-2 decision over Alex Ward (Chattanooga, Tenn.). That pulled the Blue team to within a point at 4-3.
Senior Dean Pavlou (Cleveland, Tenn.) put Blue on top with a 6-3 decision over Austin Sams (Fairfield, Ohio). Junior Alex Hudson (Marietta, Ga.) answered for the Gold team with a 13-0 major decision over Jared Presley (Harrison, Ohio) at 149. That gave the Gold an 8-6 lead.
Sophomore Trey Stavrum (Chattanooga, Tenn.) had a 9-3 win over freshman Jesse Beaver (Murphy, N.C.) at 157 while freshman John Lampe (Fairdale, Ky.) downed fellow freshman Sean Mappes (Greenwood, Ind.) 11-3 at 165. That left the Gold team with a 12-9 lead.
The Gold squad rolled off two more wins, beginning with junior Jake Young's (Ooltewah, Tenn.) 2-0 decision over junior Levi Clemons (Kissimmee, Fla.) at 184. Senior Robert Prigmore (Southlake, Texas) shut out freshman John Shrader (Franklin, Tenn.) 5-0 at 184.
Trailing 18-9 with two matches left, the Blue team needed wins to have a chance to pull even. Senior Niko Brown (Kissimmee, Fla.) started with a 10-3 decision over freshman Jared Johnson (Jefferson City, Mo.). Sophomore Kevin Malone (Carrollton, Ohio) gave the Blue team the tying points with a pin over freshman Caleb Denny (Cincinnati, Ohio) at heavyweight.
The Mocs open the regular season on Saturday, Nov. 3, with a tri-dual in Charlottesville, Va., against the Cavaliers, Anderson (S.C.) and Ohio. UTC's home opener is set for Nov. 16 against Iowa and Cumberland. Season and single-match tickets are on sale now at the UTC Ticket Office at (423) 266-MOCS (6627) and online at GoMocs.com.

After a competitive national search, Pinewood Preparatory School has selected Michael Wright to lead its football program.
Wright replaces Jody Kafina, who served as the Panther coach for two seasons.
In addition to his head coaching duties, Wright will work in the admissions office and teach in the physical education department.
"We are thrilled to have an independent school educator of Michael's caliber as part of our faculty team next year," Pinewood Head of School Steve Mandell said. "Throughout this search process, he became the clear choice for Pinewood. His successful career in independent school education and his reputation for character and integrity contributed greatly to his selection. We are confident that he will be a leader for our football program, and a tremendous member of our faculty."
A native of Bath, S. C., Wright attended boarding school at the Kent School in Connecticut. He earned his Bachelor of Arts from St. Lawrence University in New York, where he earned four varsity letters in football and two in basketball. Wright is a member of both the Kent School and St. Lawrence University Halls of Fame.
Upon graduating, he was invited to try out for the Miami Dolphins as a free agent.
With a career spanning 23 years, Michael has worked in various administrative capacities, coached numerous sports, and taught at both the middle and high school level. He has spent the past decade at the Flint Hill School in Fairfax, Va. At Flint Hill, he restarted the football program, leading the team to four league championships, four appearances in the Virginia state semi-finals, and one appearance in the state championships. In addition to football, Wright also coached basketball and track while at Flint Hill.
Prior to Flint Hill, Wright held positions at several notable independent institutions, including a ten-year tenure at King Lowe Heyward Thomas School (KLHT) in Connecticut. Wright has coached and mentored many college football players who have gone on to play at places like Virginia Tech, James Madison, Cornell and the University of Richmond. In 2006, he was named the Redskins High School Coach of the Year, and was twice named the Sun-Gazette Coach of the Year.
Pinewood has also announced that Frank Cuda is joining the school as director of football operations. Cuda is a familiar face in football and education in Summerville, having served Dorchester District Two in a variety of teaching and coaching roles for many years. Cuda served as an assistant coach at Pinewood this past year, and will support Coach Wright this coming year in this newly created role, focusing on all aspects of logistics and team operations.

Culbreath: Road trip! Bluejackets and American GirlWritten by Matt 'Shaggy' Culbreath | | email@example.com
I've been explaining this for weeks, and no one believes me.
On the 13th of this month, my little girl turns 10 years old. Pretty big deal, right? Made it a decade without trading her in for a newer model. And while we normally have some pretty elaborate shindigs for her friends each year (if you listen closely, you can still hear people rave over the Teddy Bear Picnic of 2009), you've gotta go all out for number 10, yes?
So my wife comes up with a plan: ROAD TRIP! Goin' to Columbus. We'll take in a Blue Jackets game Friday night, and then going to the American Girl store the next morning.
Yet every time I talk about this trip, I get the same reaction. "Ahh, hockey game. Gotta get a little something in for Dad, eh?"
No, jerkwater. That's not for Dad. I mean, I'm psyched to be going, sure, but it's not for me.
Again, I didn't plan this trip, my wife did. And she knows that the two things she would really love to do the most would be to go to a hockey game, and then look at dolls (even if they are ridiculously overpriced).
When we had our daughter some ten years ago, I was determined to make sure she was a well-rounded individual. That involved things like going to theater, watching sci-fi, eating at restaurants that are a bit above her, and watching old Looney Tunes cartoons. It also involved showing her a lot of sports. I'd be watching something for work, and she'd sit down and watch with me.
In 2007, we took her to her first hockey game. Nationwide Arena, the Columbus Blue Jackets hosting the Detroit Red Wings. Phenomenal game, went to the shootout, Jackets won. The cannon freaked her out a little bit, but not as freaked out as I was when she thought it would be a good idea to yell "GO BLUE!" in the middle of Buckeye Country. It was a good night.
We kept it going by taking her to Hens games. When the Huntington Center opened in 2009, we made sure to take her to Walleye games. She's been to more than one Rockets game, both at the Glass Bowl and Savage Arena. We don't go overboard, because I don't want my kid to be the "throwing furniture if our team loses" person. But we enjoy what we can.
Now, in all honesty, she could just be amusing me. "Dad likes sports, and I like Dad. So I'll watch with him." I get that response sometimes from her, particularly if I'm watching some movie from my childhood. She seemed less than thrilled with Spaceballs. (However, she absolutely loved Who Framed Roger Rabbit?). Then again, I can't imagine she'd be harassing me to get Walleye tickets twice a month if she didn't enjoy it.
So, no, the hockey game isn't for dad. Dad didn't even plan it. The hockey game is for my 10 year old daughter, who happens to enjoy it. The fact that I get to go with her is a gift in it's own right.

Dust is the quickest means to leave your floors looking dreary and dull. Apart from dulling their shine, it also leaves scratches on its surface. It's best to vacuum dirtier floors than sweep them because sweeping only drags the dust across the floor while vacuuming picks them. Here is a parquet brush for your SEBO canister vacuums, a lightweight floor tool for effective cleaning. Its natural horse hair ensures that you don't deal with unsightly scratches on your floor. This is an ideal brush for delicate floors, one which guarantees gentle action on parquet or delicate floors.
Repair or replace that is the most common question on the minds of vacuum cleaner owners when they find that the vacuum cleaner they bought years ago no longer cleans efficiently. They also seek vacuum cleaner bags or accessories such as brushes, crevice tools, hoses, etc. At GoVacuum, we have listed vacuum cleaner parts and handy hints to help you find the best one for your vacuum cleaner and fix it yourself. Visit our blog and check our video reviews before you decide on a vacuum cleaning system for your home.

I think that it will almost be a must if you want to shoot it very fast.I'm going to use a "fish gill" style compensator - think Barrett .50 - that pulls the gun away from your shoulder to help minimize recoil.
that .50-110 cant have much for a pin even if it were raised.
I am sitting here with a 458 win mag barrel and my trusty Yugo trunion paper weight. It has a slightly larger chamber than the 45-70 I can assure you the pin will not enter the chamber if left as is. how thin can one go in that area I dont know. But think about this, on a chineese barrel with a 19mm trunion the pin groove gets pretty close to the chamber as well! this handel about the same pressures as you 45-70. You may be able to use it as is.

ATLANTA, Ga. – Despite falling in back-to-back matches to begin the season, the Chattanooga Mocs volleyball team forced a five-set match against last season's Southern Conference champions and NCAA participant while falling 0-3 to an ACC powerhouse. Chattanooga sustained a 3-2 loss to the College of Charleston and a sweep at the hands of the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets to open the season at the Yellow Jacket Invitational in Atlanta, Ga.
The Mocs dropped their first match of the season after a heated five-set competition with the College of Charleston was decided with a 15-12 final frame. The Cougars jumped out to a 1-0 lead with a commanding 25-14 victory in the first set, but the Mocs battled back in the second to take a 25-21 win in the second. Charleston again controlled the tempo of the third set with a 25-12 win, but Chattanooga battled back in the fourth set with a nail-biting 27-25 set to take the match to a 2-2 tie. In the end, the Cougars bested UTC 3-2 with a 15-12 mark in the fifth frame.
College of Charleston put together four series of three-or-more points scored in a row against Chattanooga in the first set and dominated the third set with two five-point streaks against the Mocs. Chattanooga's sets were won was UTC scored the first point of the set in both frames while CofC won the first point in all three of its victories.
Sophomore Briana Reid (Houston, Texas) led the Mocs offense with 15 kills and 53 attacks while posting her first double-double with 11 digs. Her 17.5 points were topped only by freshmen Allie Davenport (Tyrone, Ga.) as she recorded 18.0 points and 12 kills. Davenport and Reid were the only Mocs to record double-digit scores while freshman Anne Bachmann (Lincold, Neb.) set up 35 Chattanooga points from the setter position.
Sophomore Catherine Chason (Alpharetta, Ga.) collected 13 digs as she was awarded the spot at libero while defensive specialist Melissa Green (Boca Raton, Fla.) finished with 11 digs on the day.
Despite the loss, Saturday marks the first time since 2007 Chattanooga has taken at least two sets in a match from the Cougars. That was an Oct. 9 game at Maclellan Gym that the Mocs claimed as a 3-2 victory. It was also the last win against the former SoCon team.
"I was very impressed with our play," Head Coach Travis Filar said. "For the most part, we had three freshmen and four sophomores on the court against a very experienced team for most of the match. We battled and I am pround of how we performed. Now we have to turn our attention to Georgia Tech."
The Mocs did not fare as well against the Yellow Jackets though, falling in three straight sets (17-25, 20-25, 13-25) to conclude play on Friday. Chattanooga attackers were held to single-digit kills – Davenport leading the way with eight while sophomore Julimar Alvarado (San Juan, Puerto Rico) garnered seven – and the defense only recorded 37 total digs.
The loss dropped UTC to 0-2 to begin the season while Georgia Tech improved to 2-0 in its own tournament.
The Mocs have Saturday off before wrapping up the Yellow Jacket Invitational Sunday morning at 10:30 a.m. against Florida A&M.

AUSTIN, Texas - Cal State Northridge advanced Kemar Marsden to Saturday's 200 meter quarterfinals while the rest of the Matadors were not as fortunate on day two of the NCAA West Preliminary Round Friday at Mike A. Myers Stadium.
Marsden, the Big West Conference champion in the 100 and 200 meters, ran a season-best 21.03 on Friday to claim one of the 27 spots moving on to the quarterfinal round. Marsden came in with a season-best of 21.07 and was able to shave .04 off his time to finish fourth in his heat and 24th overall. The junior will run the quarterfinal round Saturday at 7:35 MDT.
Senior Jackie Harrison, who advanced out of Thursday's first round of the 400 meters, narrowly missed reaching the NCAA Championships as she finished 15th in the quarterfinals with only the top-12 advancing. After clocking a lifetime-best of 53.26 in the first round, Harrison ran 53.44 on Friday, missing the top-12 by just .11 seconds. Harrison still has the 4x400 meter relay left on Saturday.
Senior Michael Woodham and fellow senior Donovan Toban also looked to advance out the first round of the 110 meter hurdles and triple jump respectively. Woodham matched his season-best of 14.25 to finish sixth in his heat and 35th out of 48 hurdlers. Toban also failed to advance after finishing 43rd with a jump of 46-11 (14.30) which was well off his season-best of 50-0.50 (15.25).
In addition to Marsden and the women's 4x400 relay, Ese Ntekume will look to advance in the triple jump on the final day of competition at the West Preliminary Round.

For the second time this season, the No. 21 USC Aiken women's basketball team faced a manageable deficit against Augusta State with less than a minute remaining. This time, there were no late-game heroics for the Pacers, as the Jaguars won 66-60 at the Convocation Center.
Senior captain Daniela Tarailo led the Pacers with 16 points, but Wednesday's Senior Night performance didn't have the desired result.
"I figured, shoot, I've been in a bad slump; I just have to let it go," she said, adding that she wanted to make her family, friends and Pacer fans proud. "I didn't want to let the last one slip away, but it did, and I gave it my all, though."
The Pacers (19-6, 12-6 Peach Belt Conference) and Jaguars (20-5, 13-5) traded the lead early on. USCA took the upper hand with an 11-0 run that ended with 6:03 left in the first, giving it a 27-18 lead.
The visitors were quick to answer, though, in the form of a 12-2 stretch. It only ended when Tarailo put in a layup just before the half to give the Pacers a 31-30 halftime lead.
Head coach Mike Brandt said Tarailo has been putting in a great deal of effort to break through the increased defensive attention she's seen since All-American Kayla Harris went down with a knee injury.
"She's been fighting like crazy," he said. "She's been working so hard and working on her shots. … Defenses are keying on her; obviously, she's our best shooter, and she had work for every point she got tonight."
Unlike the Pacers' 56-55 buzzer-beater win in Augusta earlier this month, Tarailo had help all along in Wednesday's game.
Sophomore McKenzie Reese, who had little contribution to the earlier win before hitting a game-winning 3-pointer, scored 13 points that included eight in the second half. She also added a team-best seven rebounds.
The teams traded the lead for much of the second half, but Augusta State built a 63-57 lead – its largest of the game – with less than 20 seconds to play. That was when it looked as though Reese set the Pacers up for another memorable finish. She hit a quick 3-pointer to bring it back to a one-possession game and stirred thoughts of another memorable finish.
But the Pacers didn't score again, and the Jags connected on three free throws to push the game to its final margin.
The Pacers also got 10 points from Porsha Martin. Brandt said USCA will need that balance and even better execution than the 34 percent it shot from the field going forward.
"Every player's just got to step up, and I think it was better. It still wasn't playing like we should or need to play, obviously, but each individual stepped up and played a little bit," he said.
The Jaguars also had three double-digit scorers, led by Jemimah Ashby with 20. Taylor Ayers added 15 and Tanchelle Hollingsworth had 11.
The Pacers will next travel to play their regular-season finale at UNC Pembroke on Saturday at 1:30 p.m. They'll need help in the form of an Augusta State loss to Flagler the same day for a shot at the top seed in the PBC's East Division, but Brandt said the team's focus starts with the Braves.
"The focus is UNC Pembroke. Every game that we win here or a game that we lose is making a difference in our regional standings," he said, acknowledging that the team's road to the NCAA Tournament wasn't as clear as it once was. "We're in the conference tournament, so we're going to go in with the intentions of winning. That's (at Columbus State) on a court that we played well on; it's a court that we won it last year. We're still the defending champions until someone knocks us off."

About LIM College
German Fulbright Scholars to Visit LIM College
Ten Fulbright Scholars from Germany will come to LIM College as part of a weeklong visit to Stony Brook University.
Ten German Fulbright Scholars will be at LIM College on September 24, as part of a weeklong visit they are making to Stony Brook University to learn how American institutions of higher education handle career development services, alumni relations, industry relations and fundraising.
The visit was arranged by the director of Stony Brook University's Career Center, so that the Fulbright delegation can gain exposure to practices at other American institutions, particularly one such as LIM College, where career development is such an integral component of the educational experience.

Legacy in the Rincon Vineyard
I studied history in college, and the older I get, the more I reflect on issues of legacy. The Rincon Vineyard is our home vineyard because this is where our winegrowing endeavor began: my father planted the first vines in the West Rincon Vineyard in 1982. Over time, we constructed the various buildings that allow us to make and share our wines; the winery, barrel storage building and the tasting room, all surrounded by the Rincon Vineyard. When my father passed away in 2006, I realized that not only the buildings, but the special environment we have here, is an important part of his legacy. In May, we completed the first phase of our redevelopment of the Rincon Vineyard with new plantings of pinot noir and chardonnay. I see this as the latest iteration of my father's vision, the continuing evolution of his legacy. It is my personal mission to carry that vision and legacy forward to make this place the best it can be and give our fourth generation the same opportunities that I've had. Cheers! -

Clint Eastwood's daughter Francesca told TMZ that she won't be voting for Mitt Romney, despite her father's endorsement of the GOP candidate. When asked about her voting plans, Francesca
I happen to not be voting for the same man. But I love that he [my dad] stands up for what he believes in.
This will be Francesca's first time voting; she is 18.
Francesca, her siblings and stepmother Dina Eastwood (not to be confused with Dina Lohan, troubled former child actress Lindsay Lohan's equally troubled mother) are all part of a reality show Mrs. Eastwood & Company that follows Mrs. Eastwood as she tries to manage a boy-band and handle being the (very well-funded) mother of (very well-funded) teenagers. Poor Clint, no wonder he talks to empty chairs, his family sounds bonkers. But at least Francesca has her own opinion.
Disagreeing with one's parents on politics is a normal part of being an adult whether in real life or on TV (remember Meathead, Rob Reiner's character on All in the Family?). And gods know, I nearly ruined a family meal when my mother said that Marcos had been good for the Philippines! In what universe?! If the facepalm.jpg had existed back then, I would have thought it.
Back to Francesca–it remains to be seen if politics will play a part in Mrs. Eastwood & Company. Clint seems a bit nonplussed about his missus' project, as evidenced by his appearance last month on Ellen. He also seemed a bit disenchanted with the GOP as well. And his distaste for Francesca's boyfriend is very clear!

Sold pending funds, thanks for viewing.
Excellent Romy G kit that I bought back in the day. I was saving this one to build up as close to original as possible, but my interests have changed somewhat, and I'd like to sell it to fund another project. Kit is all matching except for selector lever, and headspace checks good per my gauges. Includes US slant brake, Tapco stainless gas piston, and one additional Romy pistol grip. Both grips are in good shape, the second is from another build that got a US grip, and I was saving it for this kit because it is slightly better than the one that came with it. Kit does not include disconnector or safety sear.
Asking $350 shipped in the US, priority mail. USPS money order only, please.

Not bad but a few flaws

Comments about Nexus Journal Folio:
The NEXUS 7 (2013 2nd gen) tablet cover is OK overall. However, it lacks a hole for the rear camera, and the base unit (with the slots) is a bit flimsy. If I set the tablet on my lap using the case as a stand, the bottom of the case stand bends especially toward the rear of the base. This makes it flimsy to use. The outer edges of the tablet screen where the drop-down status windows are located can be tricky to put the end of my finger on since the case edging comes right to the edge of the screen. Overall, the case is made of good material and I think overcoming some of the "cons" would make it a much better product. I got my case at a substantial sale price, but I would have been greatly disappointed had I paid the full price I had been seeing it sell for on various web sites.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Where are you from originally and what do you like most about living in Grinnell?
I grew up in Madison, Wisconsin and always appreciated living in a 'college town.' For my family and I, Grinnell offers those same cultural, intellectual, and social benefits, all in a manageable (and very affordable) package. We live just across the street from campus and feel especially connected to the college community. Given the proximity, I can also say that Grinnellians have exceptional taste in music, which we sometimes get to hear on the weekends!
What do you like to do in your free time?
Usually, free time means family time with my wife and two young boys. My wife works in the Student Affairs Office with international students I recruit, so we often go to campus events to cheer them on or get them together at our house. I listen to, play, and record lots of music in my home studio and, lately, I've been learning Tae Kwon Do with my youngest son. I get to travel quite a bit for my job, but we also like to travel as a family as much as we can, usually during the summer. I also spend a fair amount of time talking with my boys about Pokemon character evolution, Monty Python dialog (with convincing British accents), and Angry Birds strategy.
What do you like most about Grinnell students?
A common trait I've noticed among Grinnellians is their creativity and passion for exploration and expression through the arts. Students are fearless artists here and I'm often pleasantly surprised by their maturity and the depth of content. As a long-time drummer, I have enjoyed performing and recording with many talented student musicians and songwriters. When I hear them, I figure they must be music majors, but often they turn out to be bio, psych, English - anything but. They are always very gracious and let the 'old guy' sit in with them!

The Matrix is nowhere near as good as IMDB's fan ratings would have one believe. The special effects were amazing for it's time, but the storyline is nothing special. I don't think it deserves a spot in the top 250, much less the top 20.
Terminator 2 (ranked 36 in IMDB's top 250) is good, not great, and it's definitely not better than The Terminator (ranked 172). The annoying kid actors, boy and his cyborg storyline and advanced special effects make it feel a little too homogenized for me. Top that off with an antagonist that is technically superior, yet far less menacing.

What I legitimately cannot stand:
Safe (1995). There is a difference between a movie that leaves room to interpret its' meaning and a movie with nothing to interpret. If people call this one of the scariest and most horrifying movies, yet the film is basically about how wrapped and coddled this already feather-gently handled woman's life is... the film is getting credit for something it isn't doing. I didn't even go into the movie expecting that it had better live up to its' reputation. I left my mind open as much as it can get. At most, I was hoping there would be a few good potshots at the 80's. But, no. The movie takes place in high class suburban type areas and all the characters are even tempered, pleasant, kind, etc. Yet it's still a trap because the protagonist is being slowly driven to isolation by her low tolerance to chemicals. At best, what the movie is saying is that everyone hurts someone. Or, should I say, everyone hurts Julianne Moore. I might have more patience for the movie's ambiguity if other people were seriously affected by Moore's situation. Her husband is a robot and her son is a little brat. These are the only characters who react to what's going on and the most we get from them is generic, unemotional cursing and despondent selfishness. Either way, these don't feel like reactions. Nobody reacts to anything that happens. Yet, it's all about this horrible thing that happens to this person. If nobody reacts, it's like nothing happens. If nothing happens, there is nothing to interpret. No meaning. At all.
Based on my last viewings of The Godfather, Goodfellas, Scarface, etc(.) - I find it impossible to take gangsters seriously. I grew up with Oscar and Innocent Blood. With John Landis's vision of gansters. Watching serious dramas about gangsters make me really bored. It's so glamorized just because they wear suits and use guns. It's a fantasy for the typically male demographic. Yet, even good "chick flicks" are talked down. Immediately, a gangster film is presumed to be good. Even if it isn't (*cough* Analyze This *cough*), the public automatically wants to see it. Because of the unspoken belief that it will be more meaningful because it speaks directly to that male fantasy. (And, please, see the Jane's dead aunt episode of Coupling for further proof; or, hell, Reservoir Dogs. Just that movie's existence.)
Oh, and... the rise in the last few years of the fist fighting movies. Even Magic Mike has brawling fistfight scenes, because it's Channing Tatum and: You Want Skin? You Have to Take the FistFighting too or No Deal (it's okay, Tate- most people were looking at Matt Bomer anyway).
Next: Christopher Nolan's Batman films. #1- I like good female characters to be given decent roles, Nolan doesn't seem to. #2- What in the Fuck is up with the Cookie Monster voice??? There is no excuse for that. It goes beyond ridiculous and right into plain insulting. #3- nothing against his performance but Nolan doesn't know how to really make Heath Ledger's Joker intimidating onscreen. #4- The Action Scenes. As there has been a lot of quality analysis proving the guy doesn't care about women in Batman's story(ies), he doesn't (didn't? I learned my lesson with Begins and DTK and haven't bothered with Rises) know how to direct action scenes. Which I wouldn't care about... except the movies stop, point blank, for the action. #5- Tim Burton, in his prime, was a legend. One of a kind. Unimitatable. There are no other "action," "adventure," "fantasy," "drama" directors like Tim Burton. Christopher Nolan? Unlike Burton, he could easily be put in a category. And one where I believe Michael Mann, David Fincher, and John Woo (to name a few) would be his superiors.
Ice Age.
Happy Feet.
Bruce Almighty.
anything with Harold & Kumar.
anything starring Larry the Cable Guy.
naturally, anything directed by Michael Bay.
Absolutely all action-adventure franchises / intended franchises beginning with Men in Black. Including: Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Spiderman, X-Men, Hulk, Iron Man, Pirates of the Caribbean, Narnia, Elektra, Super Ex Girlfriend, Aeon Flux, National Treasure, Tomb Raider, Daredevil, Punisher, Hellboy, Transformers, Fast & the Furious, Death Race, G.I. Joe, Captain America, Green Lantern, Lone Ranger, Universal Soldier, Star Trek, Avengers, Ender's Game, Hunger Games, Twilight, Blade, and any post-90's sequels/prequels/reboots to Terminator, Rambo, Indiana Jones, Wizard of Oz, Superman, Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, James Bond, Mad Max, RoboCop, The Crow, The Neverending Story, Tron, Rocky, or Get Shorty
I will not watch any of those movies.
I agree Zoolander isn't funny. Just like Reality Bites, I wonder what the hell was going through Stiller's head. A lot of other people liked it because it was goofy but, deep down... it was a satire without a target. Male Modeling? Male Modeling really takes itself THAT seriously? So much more than women modeling? His subject proved to be so void, he literally had to start digging into Actor and Musician circles for targets. Stephen Dorff? I'm sorry, but when Stephen Dorff was onscreen in Cecil B. Demented- everyone else was looking at Jack Noseworthy (muscles trump hair bleach everytime). Paris Hilton? Did anyone (and I mean anyone) even know who she was 2 years before The Simple Life? The world really followed Kathy Hilton's pregnancies in the 80's like they did with Madonna's or Demi Moore's in the 90's? Idon'tthinkso. Lil' Kim? Did Eve, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, Aaliyah, Missy Elliot, Mya, Brandy, and Queen Latifah turn them down or something? I haven't seen a Stiller directed movie where his ideas didn't run away from him. The story was bad and the jokes were almost all about how the only thing he can do is suck in his lips. But, credit to one person for making the movie tolerable: Will Ferrell. Who I usually hate.
Also agreed on Big Lebowski. I thought it was decent. But I didn't see the humor in any of the characters. Everything was so broad that, when suddenly John Goodman was pissed off about something- it felt to me like it was coming out of nowhere. After Tara Reid's first scene, the whole movie went down this road. Dialogue, characters being shot, arguments, people dying, nudity- all of it came out of nowhere. However, there were a few scenes in the first 15 minutes that worked. The movie was on track. What ruined it was wheelchair Lebowski. The scene with him chewing "The Dude" out over something that hadn't really been outlined just meant it was a guy who didn't want to pay attention being yelled at by someone we didn't know. Am I wrong, or didn't this piss people off when it happened in Freddy Got Fingered?
Put another vote on Fight Club. The penis ruined the ending. The ending was supposed to mean something and they drew me in and... then... cheap 2nd grader joke! I don't care if they referenced it in the beginning- this ending was supposed to mean something. And, thanks to the music and the acting, it did. Before that, the rest of the movie felt like half a book, half a video game. Neither I really want if I sit down to watch a movie... well, after Tron, at least. It didn't feel like the story of the guy or like it cared about what he was supposed to be going through. It cared about getting some viewers for rebelling against tech office work force (which Office Space kinda did already) and other viewers for the "we're rebels 'cause we're fighting and all those other losers are just carrying briefcases and stamping papers." It felt calculated instead of cerebral.
It took me a long time to get into the movie though. It kinda took the DVD, at first, to amp up the music's power (the 5.1 surround helped a lot) and get me to finally appreciate the incredible atmosphere. I took to American Werewolf in London right away but now, I wish it was a little more like The Howling. They're both excellent. But could both also be better.
It's half and half. I think the gore and music are simply outstanding. A+ on both counts. I also adored Nicoletta Elmi as the Usherette (was really hoping she wouldn't end up like the babysitter in Fulci's House by the Cemetery: evil, mysterious, and sexy one minute- a standard victim the next, just to up the bodycount) and thought that moment where we watch one of the survivors actually becoming a demon was an amazing bit of hypnotic substance. For once, we felt like a real person was becoming lost. That it was actually a little sad. What was happening to everyone who eventually died. (Oh, and... I liked the punks in the car interludes.)
But the rest of it is ridiculous, patience-testing schlock. I agree. This movie could easily be remade and remade well. I could even see it now. Keeping it dumb yet allowing it to work. If you don't have characters, a filmmaker should never turn their movie into a "now you're trapped together" scenario. If you do that, you just have brainless Body Count Fodder crashing around in the dark, yelling and screaming to indicate tension. D'UH! (That's, of course, directed at the people who think the movie is more than maybe 56% successful.)
Next: Meg Foster. Was I the only one who'd seen both Leviathan and Shrunken Heads before this film? She is Always Evil. Don't trust her. She's Always Evil. Look at her eyes. That's why they cast her. She's Always Evil. She turns out to be Evil in the end...I. Am. So! Shocked. Lastly... the 15-minute street wrestling match. Um, this is a movie about people in peril and there is some urgency in the story... am I wrong? Anyway, this is the sorta thing Slant's review is trying to defend. But, watching it is a different matter. I do not like the way Carpenter usually tries to cram 5 or so different genres into his movies at once. This was a huge problem with me on The Thing. Carpenter controlled it on Halloween and The Fog. Here, it goes even further out of control. Guess he got tired of being a horror master even when he was still making horror movies. I don't blame him but... I can't lie and say his post-Fog movies are perfect. Though, I haven't seen Escape from New York or Big Trouble in Little China yet (I would have watched the former a year ago but Netflix fucking 1.85'd his 2.35 movie and I refuse to support them doing something like that unless it's a shit movie like Enough or something like that).

Unfortunately, I think The Howling is at its strongest when it's simply Dee Wallace and a serial killer in a sleazy video shop.

Well, I say it goes deeper. Joe Dante's movies aren't usually very "sly." They're much more observant. The effects didn't have to be convincing, it's the life behind them. Wallace did a great job in the movie and she gave that scene her all, and if you're in there with her / if you were following her- you feel it. For her, this scene sure isn't a cheap tug at strings. And the music is still amazing. And I think the entire cast was doing great with it too.

In no way am I arguing that she didn't do a great job. I was only saying that for me personally, the scene was somehow less than the sum of its parts. This whole thread is about subjectivity - no matter how analytical we would like to be, there are always movies we can't quite get in to - in spite of their qualities.

It's a good argument - but honestly, it's been several years since I saw it, and one of the things I remember the most is Karen facing off against the serial killer werewolf.
It can simply be a question of aesthetics - of whether or not the music, cinematography, editing, pacing and overall structure, etc. speak to you. For a long time, I couldn't work out why Romero's films didn't thrill me, because I understood their importance and artistic merrit. Why is Halloween a more powerful film for me than Dawn of the Dead, for instance? Both are landmark films. However, aesthetically they couldn't be more different. Dawn features a brightly lit climax, Halloween is darker. Halloween builds suspense with narrow, claustrophobic compositions, while Dawn favours wide, chaotic shots. Horror is an emotion, and, hence, subjective: What scares YOU? I hope I am making sense.

Actually that´s basically what Wes Craven´s "Cursed" started out as, before they sadly fucked everything up by reshooting and changing the film.
The only problem I have with the ending in "Howling" is that she turns into a damn dog, instead of a scary werewolf, like everyone else did, but I guess here cuteness and innocence, or whatever, made here into a "nicer" werewolf
They also should have cut to the credits right after she got shot, for a more shocking effect, instead of making it silly with that cut to the resturant scene.
But it´s a Joe Dante film and supposed to be a dark comedy anyways

I´m glad we at least have Donnie Yen who still can pull out some old school stuff from time to time. When Donnie, Sammo Hung, and Jackie Chan are gone, then we will probably never see anymore martial arts movies like that EVER again

I do like Crouching Tiger, for adding a little class to the kung-fu flick. Don't get me wrong, I like old-school Shaw Bros movies big time, and I will admit they're far more bad-ass than Crouching Tiger (in terms of the fight scenes), but sometimes the acting and repetitive storylines in those old movies becomes unbearable. And I never cared for the obviously fake sets that got re-used over and over again. Ang Lee took one of my favorite genres and actually put it in a fairly decent movie for once. In fact, my favorite sequence of CTHD had no fight scenese whatsoever; it was where Zhang Ziyi runs off chasing the bandit and eventually shacks up with him.
Where I will agree with you is on the skills of Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung (and don't forget the criminally underused Yuen Biao), not just as actors but as DIRECTORS. I think they were the onese who really took the repetitive nature of kung-fu cinema to a new level with their films from the mid 80s to early 90s.
However, the genre was already dead when Ang Lee made CTHD, and it was not because of him. I think the Chinese takeover of Hong Kong in 1997 was a HUGE factor (HK no longer had the freedom to do whatever they wanted on screen), and it's also widely speculated that massive bootlegging of movies in that time period rendered the filmmaking industry in HK to be completely unprofitable.
You don't have to like CTHD, but I think you're blaming Ang Lee for stuff that was not his fault.
