I must have tried about a dozen different multi-vitamins brands – but I always come back to this one, because it's beautifully balanced and it works. Throw in some vitamin K2 from one of the Life Extension formulas... some extra Vitamin D3... some extra vitamin C with Bioflavonoids... some extra CoQ10... some Now Kelp Powder for Iodine and trace minerals(and Kelp also has beautiful detoxification properties)... some Pure Essence Super D-K Calcium Plus – for Calcium & Magnesium... a high-quality bottle of liquid Norwegian Cod Liver Oil – by Twinlab, Carlson or Nature's Answer... some high-quality Evening Primrose Oil – by Carlson, Source Naturals or Barlean's... and you've got the beginnings of a beautiful foundation.

This is by far the mest multivitamin supplement i have tried.
The only concern i had is of the very high vitamin B12 levels. I would prefer it to bit a tad lover. about 5000% of the daily value, istead of 8350%. Or something like that.
But other than that, if you look up all the ingredients on google, and research.. Man it got all you need, and then some!
I feel great after taking 3 tablets. My mood goes up, my energy goes up.
And i bet my recovery in training also goes up, same with libido.
Greetings from Norway.. We love Iherb!! Please get more of theese, they havent been in stock for aages. I know many friends that want to buy it aswell.

Westport Over one year ago, Champlain Area Trails (CATS) started a writing contest that they hoped would be an asset to tourism.
On Jan. 24, the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism (ROOST) recognized the efforts of CATS and the writing contest with one of its three annual Destination Awards, the Tourism Marketing Award.
"It's a real boost for us," CATS Director Chris Maron said about receiving the award. "We wanted to keep in touch with the other tourism groups in the region and its exciting to see that other people have noticed and that it has had a positive effect. It's also an honor to all the people who have been here to support us."
In awarding CATS with a Destination Award, ROOST said that the organization that was founded in 2009 has had a positive impact in vacation planning.
"CATS understands that vacation planning occurs online," ROOST said during its presentation video. "By collecting stories from writers about their experiences not only on the trails but at local businesses and historic and cultural sites, as well as the people they meet along the way, they develop online content that promotes the region as a wonderful place to visit, and to live. This content is then also easily shared via social networks."
Maron echoed the thought that the contest was about more than trails.
"What ROOST and the state are really pushing is for people to think regionally and, in a way, that is what this travel writing contest is about," Maron said. "The contest is not only about trails but the businesses and people who live here so people can get a flavor fro what they will find here."
Maron said that the writing contest helps to promote regional travel in a different way.
"We are working to build trails that connect communities and the contest as a way to tell the stories of these communities," he said. "We want to help make the Champlain Valley a destination attraction like places in England where people hike and walk between the towns."

2 answers
A:Yes, it is perfectly fine to use with water and hold your shampoo bar!Answered on 7/17/2015 by Anonymous
A:I keep my container in the shower. I use it for the massage bars. I keep
it on the top of the soap dish. I have not seen it rust at all for the 2
or so years I have kept it in the shower.Answered on 7/17/2015 by Anonymous
Q:Will the strawberry feels forever massage bar fit in this container?Asked on 7/12/2015 by brandie
1 answer
A:It will! This tin is bigger in height than the massage bar tin, but smaller in length. Since Strawberry feels is not as long as some of the other massage bars, it would fit in either!Answered on 7/13/2015 by Haley from Lush Direct
I've had this tin for a few months now and I've been keeping my Jungle conditioner in here. There is a thin layer of almost a plastic-y sheet coming off the bottom and sides of the tin. What is this? Will it make the tin less effective in blocking out steam or preserving the conditioner? Would you suggest getting a new one? How can it be prevented?
SavannahAsked on 2/25/2015 by Savannah from Danville, CA
1 answer
A:Either would work for your skin, Ocean Salt is lovely product because that is great for all skin types and is one of my favorite products. Mask of Magnaminty is a great for tightening and exfoliating your skin, which you will have to leave on your skin for 10 minutes. So it depends on your lifestyle, I usually have them both in my bathroom for when I have time or if I feel like pampering myself.Answered on 3/21/2015 by Anonymous
Q:Does this work with the Ice Blue soap and Dirty Soap?Asked on 1/13/2015 by HiItsTyler from Ohio
1 answer
A:It just depends on the piece of soap that you purchase. If it fits within the tin, it is a wonderful place to store it!Answered on 2/15/2015 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
Q:Would King of Skin fit in this?Asked on 5/4/2014 by Liz the Fashionista from Atlanta, GA
3 answers
A:King of Skin is a little bit too tall to fit within the body butter tin until it is used a few times and begins to melt down. Width-wise, it does fit. Feel free to store the body butters in any container you can find, keeping in mind that they should be stored in a cool, dry area away from any moisture.Answered on 5/7/2014 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
A:Hi Liz,
I have not purchased the king of skin before but I am almost 100% positive
that it will fit in the body butter tin. Hope this helps!
LauraAnswered on 5/5/2014 by Anonymous
A:No, brand new it will not. It can sit in the tin, but you cannot close itAnswered on 5/4/2014 by Anonymous
Q:Does the big Buffy fit into this tin?Asked on 3/25/2013 by bec from Hilton Head Island, SC
1 answer
A:The Body Butter Tin is just a little bit too short to equip the larger Buffy. After a few washes it would fit in, but unfortunately it would need to be store elsewhere until it has shrunken down a bit.Answered on 9/17/2013 by Laura C from LUSH Direct
Q:I'm just curious of the dimentions!Asked on 3/7/2012 by Anonymous
2 answers
A:The Body Butter tin is approximately 1" deep, and just under 3" across.Answered on 3/15/2012 by Megan from LUSH
A:It's a 3" square tin that is 1" deep. It fits a lot of the products but I know the Aquamirabilis fits perfectly inside. The other items that don't fit in it will eventually with use.Answered on 4/24/2012 by Spaceymacy101 from The Woodlands, TX

spawn.com gang will attend gravity games
San Diego Comicon Plans Revised
Friday, June 23, 2000
Spawn.com Gang Will Attend Gravity Games
San Diego Comicon Plans Revised
June 23, 2000
The roving Spawn.com staff is tentatively planning to attend the Gravity Games July 19-23 in Providence, R.I.
The Gravity Games, sponsored by EMAP USA and NBC, is an extreme sports festival featuring aggressive inline skating (street and vert), skateboarding (street and vert), downhill skateboarding, street luge, wakeboarding and those freestyle motocross psychos.
As it stands now, Spawn.com will have an interactive tent in the Festival Village featuring toy and comics displays, product raffles and video game demos.
The sporting events will be broadcast on NBC beginning in October.
Because the Gravity Games dates coincide with Comicon International (and even future Hellspawns can't be in two places at once), the Spawn.com gang won't be able to show off the interactive Spawn van in San Diego this year.
Rest assured, comic book fans, we wouldn't just leave the premiere comics festival unmanned. Several Todd McFarlane Productions artists -- Ashley Wood, Brian Michael Bendis, Danny Miki, Angel Medina, Steve Niles, Nat Jones, Alberto Ponticelli, Jonathan Glapion and Clayton Crain to be exact - will be signing at the Image Comics booth, space 544. Also on hand will be McFarlane executives Larry Marder, Beau Smith, Jim Hedstrom and Terry Fitzgerald, reportedly to be taking part in panel discussions and other acts of mayhem.

Rated 4 out of 5Â by ashdy77 Restock Please!!! Ok, so this is not a product review. Half an hour ago, I added that last pair of these adorable boots in my cart. I was so excited because they just happen to be my size(normally 7.5 in boots). I decided that I would go over some other stuff before I check out. And ten minutes later, they are GONE!!! I literally went heartbroken since I've been looking for a pair of black booties like these for quite some time! So, please restock them soon!!!! 9.13.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by MissBrie Best Boot Ever! I have these in burgundy and the color is beautiful! they go with everything- dresses, skirts, jeans, shorts. I wear a 7 1/2 so i ordered the 8 and they fit great, there's enough room for socks. i wish i could afford the black ones as well :) 8.28.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by ellej Awesome boots These are really incredible boots.. They are the type of shoes that are really well made and will last for several years. It's true that the pictures don't do them justice... So cute! Also after reading the other reviews about sizing, I ordered them half a size up. Usually a size 8 - 8.5 so I got a nine and they are perfect. It's definitely wise to order a size up, they run small. I wouldn't have been able to fit into an 8. Super cute and great quality boots!! 7.19.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Katiebau Great tough boot! I love these boots, when I first put them on I wasn't sure about them, but after wearing them for a couple of days I realise how wonderful and characteristic they are. So easy to match with things. I upsized from my usual size 8 to a size 9 based on reviews. At first I was upset as they felt too big, but wearing them with thick socks they are perfect. I feel you would be better getting your true size, and letting them stretch over time I could see how your true size would be hard to put on, but if you loosen all the laces completely I don't think it would be a problem. Also don't wear your favourite socks- the black dye came out all over mine! All in all a great boot to add to your collection that I love more and more everyday. 4.13.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by RebeccaBenitez Nice Details, High Quality This boot has a great feel to it right out of the box. They look expensive and well worn. The pictures don't do them justice. I found the boot to be a bit snug width wise (length TTS) when I first put it on but after a couple of minutes the soft leather had loosened up and they were very comfortable. One note about the color, the undertone of the boot is more of a berry/fuchsia than burgundy. It is lovely. I've already received tons of compliments! 3.20.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Crusanne Fabulous boot Ordered my regular size and they were pretty snug so had them stretched at my shoe repair and they are prefect now. Styling and details is top quality, wonderful stitching that doesn't show well in pics, nice surprise for me. Everyone notices these boots and I just smile. 2.28.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by BGS Reaallyyy small :( I received these boots as a Christmas present and was super excited when I opened the box, however when i tried the boots on i could barely fit my foot in the boot! I am so disappointed as these were one the the main things i wanted this year and they are out of stock in all of the sizes :( I am a solid size 8 in all shoes and thats what was ordered and it says on the box, however on the bottom of the shoe there is a 6 printed there? was there a distribution mistake? or do the shoes actually run this small. If so If i order a size ten will they actually fit like a size 8? aside from the fit the boots are beautifully made and the studs on the side an awesome touch that make them stand out perfectly! Only wish they were the right size they would have been a perfect boot :( 12.28.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by katieh Wonderful I walked into my FP store and there they were.. in my exact size! I bought these in a size 10. I agree with the other reviewer that they are snug when you first put them on, but they do stretch to fit your foot. The distressing is awesome, the studs are sturdy, and the soles have nice treads. These have a definite steam punk feel to them that makes these whimsical and fun. 12.6.2012

Wind: 0 mph
The bridge, the church and the barber shop
By Dave Sellers
Take a close look behind the Madsonian at the two remnants of the historic iron truss bridge that handled the threads of traffic loads, bikes and runners for nearly 100 years. Three things of note to consider: 1. That the chunks of steel once measured, calculated and set in place with rivets of steel are now tangled unrecognizable elements of that crossing, They remind one of the end of the war, the crash of huge engines, the result of massive explosions. What took thousands of hours to design, manufacture to precision and erect with care to last was ripped apart by another fierce machine in six hours. 2. That when the road bed of layers of asphalt was finally torn off the base steel elements, and the bridge structure exposed, the bridge was in excellent shape and didn't need to be torn down. 3. How did the decision to replace it come to be the rule of the day? That may never be determined. Similar to finding who decided to tear down Penn Station in NYC, or the beautiful stone post office in Montpelier. Who knows? We note, however, that our local heroes Bob Burley and Arthur Williams saved the Pavilion Hotel in Montpelier so it is repurposed to celebrate the power and care of an earlier day.
The Church on Route 100 is at the cusp of the grave or is it to be repurposed to last on Route 100 along with the icons placed there by our forefathers (and more likely the foremothers as it seems that men are more likely to tear down something as women are more likely to nourish something to life): the spectacular Joslin Memorial Library, the Masonic Lodge, the Federated church and pastorage, and across Route 100 the church and the IOOF hall, now the Valley Players. This is the core of historic Waitsfield and one of the icons is waiting to be placed in service for the public once again. It will never be a church again; the current private businesses have luckily been able to keep it in good enough shape for a permanent public configuration and the public offices are the perfect use.
We all know that times are tough, money is hard to find, and whatever we have is easily spent on the endless piles of needy chores. But our civic pride, our common core, our collective memory of the past (that is now the present) cannot be determined by balance sheets or comparisons of prices. It seems sensible to move the town offices into the old church as it is and gradually over time bring it up to snuff. There are dozens of volunteers who would roll up their sleeves as they did and are still doing after the flood. I recommend that the town grasp the last chance to have that beautiful church for all of us, take a deep breath and gather all our strength to put it back to a prideful centerpiece for our town and the visitors who flock to see how we did it.
Like the bridge, Frank's Barbershop is gone, downed by the flood at the hands of a higher power (unless you think that global warming is caused by us). The bridge was brought down by ourselves intentionally. Now what?
The little building that anchored the street for more than 100 years is gone and the tiny little spot of land on the river is now in the public domain. This is good. Especially when the public domain is seen as belonging to us. It is ours. So how do we decide what to do? Is it the planning commission, the select board and a consultant expert hired by the town, or is it us to decide?
A good example of what and how to do is being set by the city of Burlington as they ponder the fate of the old Moran plant on the lake. This is 10 years of pondering without direction… until now—the city has decided to hand it over to the citizens. They have announced an RFC. This means a formal request for concepts (RFC). And, in their wisdom, they are asking for concepts submitted in two paragraphs.
So, I suggest that the select board issue a call for concepts. Are there any ideas out there that we can all consider? I suspect that those who drive, walk, bike, or swim by will have the best shot at imagining something that we all will love and cherish. Let's see what is out there and do it with the excitement and joy of imagining a special future on the edge of the river.
Sellers lives in Warren.

(Dec. 21) - The New Mexico State women's basketball team snapped a two-game
losing streak with a 75-50 win over Missouri-Kansas City on Friday evening in
the Pan American Center. The Aggies move to 6-4 on the season before opening
Western Athletic Conference play on Saturday, Dec. 29.
Sophomore Danesia Williamson tallied 21 points on the night with
a steal and two rebounds. She marked a season high seven assists. As a team, NM
State shot 41.5 percent from the field and picked up 29 points off UMKC
turnovers. The Aggies also shot 46.7 percent (14-30) behind the three-point
line with four of those coming from Williamson.
"Defense was really big for us tonight," head coach Mark
Trakh said. "The team bought into the scouting report and we were making shots.
It's amazing how much of a difference that makes for us."
Forcing 18 turnovers, the Aggies picked up 37 rebounds on
the game, including seven from Jasmine Rutledge and six from Kelsie Rozendaal.
NM State got off on the right foot with the opening bucket
by senior Stefanie Gilbreath followed by a three by freshman guard Sasha Weber.
The Aggies maintained their momentum early in the first half by claiming 13
unanswered points before the 10-minute mark.
The Aggies let the Kangaroos come back with five points that
included their first three of the game before Williamson responded with a layup.
A couple more Aggie baskets put NM State ahead 33-11 before the 'Roos went on a
10 point run to close the half 33-21 with the Aggies ahead.
In the first half alone, Gilbreath tallied 14 points with three
boards and 3-for-6 behind the three point line. NM State closed the half
shooting 40.7 percent from the field and held the lead throughout the entire
period. The Aggies were up by as much as 22 in the first half with 3:52 on the
The second half started off with a slower pace, but it wasn't
long before a deep three by Weber and a couple of layups by Williamson and
senior Camila Rosen got the Aggies back on track. A pair of three's from
Williamson and freshman Elena Holguin vaulted the Aggies to 48-29 with 11:04
left in the second half.
After the 10-minute mark, it was free throws that proved
helpful for NM State. Williamson and Rutledge combined for seven points from
the line. Williamson moved the Aggies ahead by 24 with back-to-back three
The half wrapped up with four freshmen on the court. Abby
Scott and Alexis Nelson each picked up a three with less than two minutes to
play. The lead didn't stop there as NM State moved ahead by 26 points with 1:01
to play. That margin marked the largest lead the Aggies have had all season
over an opponent.
The win over the 'Roos marks the sixth win for NM State this
season, tying the win total of the 2011-12 season.
"I'm really pleased with the win. It sets us of for
conference play next week and gives the girls some confidence to build on over
the break," Trakh said.
The Aggies open WAC play against UT Arlington on Saturday,
Dec. 29 at the Pan American Center before hosting Louisiana Tech on New Years
Eve. Both games are slated for a 6:30 p.m. tip-off.

Right, however, I also played mabinogi for 3 - 4 years with out spending a dime. It was only the first year i really spent a lot on it.
Also, paying for something is my decision. If you are unable to play a free to play game with out spending money, then you have a shopping problem. Kinda like my mom, she can't play facebook and iphone app games with out spending money on the ones she likes.
I also didn't mention like the 30 other F2P games I have played and didn't spend a cent on them. That is because I either could not at the time or didn't feel it was worth it. The great thing about that is, YOU are the one who decides if it's worth it. It's not like the company forces you to pay.
As for the budgeting, I can see how for someone who may spend a lot of money on F2P games or B2P games may like a P2P more. My mom just kinda learned to stay away from those games if you can consider spending money on dragon city staying away lol. -.-
I personally don't have anything against a P2P model itself. I just don't like that there is a HIGH chance all that money will be wasted in the end just for the game to go F2P later on.
As for your costco reference .. I get ya. You are right. In free to play MMO games when a new pet comes out ... like a dragon ... eye turn bright and shiny .. mouth opens wide ... must. ... buy.
*shrugs* If i spend money though, I really don't mind as long as I am getting something I want. P2P however, you really don't know till you buy it. Which sucks.

Also, the people there are actual game developers like myself. You always tend to get a very good idea of what is going on in the industry if you pay close attention to that site. It's also how I look for jobs in some cases. :P
Edit: Ok I take that back, they are bickering about it too. XD One person even said "I would expect a little more support on this site given we're all supposed to be industry professionals. Those whining about it not being free sound more like poor jobless gamers."
Too funny. :3 Though, again no one was asking for it for free .. but still really funny.

I don't make a differentiation between the two really. A game is either sub-free or sub-locked in my world. Sub-locked games are not all the same to me either. Most have secondary revenue sources like EVE's PLEX, micro-transactions (web or ingme), content gates/DLC costs like box fees and xpacs, and other such stuff. The thing that binds them all together is you need to have a subscription to access the service. Sub-free games have all those same trappings but don't require a subscription.
So yeah, GW2 is pretty much the same as Tera, Rift, TSW or Neverwinter to me on paper at least. In practice that up front fee means more perks are open from the get go. In a F2P game you might start with a couple character slots. In the B2P game I get more at the start.
Content gating exists in both payment models. If you don't buy the xpac in either game you can't play that content. Again, not all sub-games do that, but not all sub-free games do either. I don't pay extra to see all of Tera or Rift just like some sub games include all their content for the sub-price. If you consider lockboxes content gating then we'll just have to disagree.

P2P is the lazy way out of making a profit which could or could not bite em in the ass later down the road if people leave in droves that is a trend with every P2P themepark game that all of which have converted over to F2P or B2P. TERA, SWTOR, Rift, DDO, LotRO, The Secret World... think that covers em all. I can't think of a single themepark game that hasn't dropped their sub model besides WoW. I doubt Wildstar will be any different nor ESO.
Summer is ending so naturally companies are advertising their game. Expansions are nothing new and in fact expected. Sales might be down but P2P MMOs are not different. Both with have a huge influx/pike at launch and then downgrades from there and stabilize.

Photoshop 1k each person. So if you have a big team that adds up, each mod you need for normal mapping , any mods for 3ds max, animation software. 4k each person. Now the list goes on, now you get to pay each member to your team...... Advertising cost, over head, so again, were is this so called Greed crap....
Kids today have no clue the work that it takes to build such a game or the over all costs to make at all.... Get a job and find out what it takes to work for a living, because thats what we do when making games, we actually work..!!!

That comment makes no sense at all, if he is one he would know the ins and out alot more, i'm a gamer and then become DEV , I thought I knew it all as a gamer and realized real fast I didn't know jack shit.. I see the work that is put in to games and the time it takes and the bullshit we have to deal with.... Yes he should come to you with questions , like what do you like in a game etc , but no one person likes the same game, and it shouldn't be justa job to him, if thats the case he is in the wrong field.
Most gamer's turned DEVS do it because they love what they do and make what they make because they love it, work at a job you hate its the same if I hated a game I was working on , which I have AAA company and left, went to indies and have not turned back since.

It's like expecting a podiatrist to know about brain surgery.
The poster I was responding to just threw out the developer card to try to give some extra weight to his opinion. My response was directed at that.

Ya, well I would think most people would take others opinions at face value. Even when someone has credentials and opinion is still only an opinion. However, when you start looking at statistics, is when you really should not take it as face value. Basically if someone states an opinion, but has some proof to back it up, is when a person should start considering that this person might be right.
As for B2P is a F2P variant? I guess if you really want to put it that way, that is fine. Just keep in mind that B2P, F2P, and P2P describes the business model, and not what the game feels like or plays like. Which is pretty much what I am trying to point out. You can say a B2P feels like a F2P that you paid a box price for, but you really can't say B2P is literally F2P. Saying B2P is a F2P variant is stating a fact, which makes you wrong. Saying a B2P feels like a F2P variant is an opinion. However, maybe I am just being too picky?
I personally have worked on an MMORPG in the past, not a very popular one and I only worked on it for a short period of time as a temp dev I suppose you could say. It's a free to play, 100%. No cash shop, no catches. Though the game sucks rofl. I stopped helping with development is it felt like it wasn't going any where. It's still in alpha and believe it's been over 20 years -.- It had a very mature player base, mostly all role players.
I try not to post any of the games I work on. It becomes to much of a hassle when people start asking question XD.
Though I can tell ya, I started off in the modding community. Mostly Half-Life and counter-strike mapping. Then of course started working on the source engine when half-life 2 was released. Eventually I decided to go to college. They teach a lot about every aspect of developing a game at the art institute. So I learned aspects of development that I personally don't even work in.
As for it being just a job for me? Naaa, I do it for fun. I made more money in my last profession in Telecommunications. :3 Being a game dev though is a lot more fun, and a lot less stressful. Just that makes it worth it.
Ugh, please no. No F2P game with a cash shop and a box price to boot.
If they do go the B2P route it better be in the form of no cash shop and DLC content.
Much rather have Box+Sub and nothing else to worry about.
My only fear these days is a p2p mmorpg going f2p...they typically kick you in the face if you were a past paid member and make you rebuy the game in the cash shop like with SWTOR...rather than thanking you for supporting tem in the past like TERA did.
Payment model is important to me for mmorpgs. Im fully a steam junky now, and floating around with games gets me distracted, having a sub keeps me grounded and into that one game.
With every f2p game any distraction is reason to stop playing and forget about the mmorpg (mostly because most single player games offer better content, though limited in content and playtime) but its very easy to just forget about that free mmo...not to mention the quality is always vastly lower (don't care about your counter arguments its an opinion)
So yeah Stick with Sub or B2P+DLC content like TES games currently do. No more of this GW2 crap item mall with a box price. Such a model seems to focus in on wallet raping early before people get bored and leave, such as what happened with Gw2 (heard they were down to only 4 servers which speaks volumes on retaining players)

i think the GW2 model would fit this game perfectly specially since it stays true to the TES franchise model. But i might try it if they dont add a cash shop. I'll have a hard time alternating my one and only subscription between WoW, XIV, and WildStar(if they allow me to turn off telegraphs).

I think B2P allows for people to at least purchase your game.
P2P will always have to potential of simply being a 30day free trial. With B2P, if people hate your game at one point, they can always come back and check it out, making each significant patch a chance to rehook people.
And what hurts more is even if you are a great P2P game, you have to compete with other subscriptions, which doesn't make any sense to me.
In short, B2P allows the merits of the game to be the sole measure of retention after entry without need for a pay wall.
I really hope ESO does well, and I'm sure it will. I just feel that P2P is a huge risk with a huge reward, but an even bigger potential downfall.

One thing Blizzard did at the start of WOW was to allow skill respecs for ridiculously small amounts of game coin because they realized respecing was essential to game play.I remember the early days of DAoC, before WoW, and many were supremely pissed at the lack of respecs. Some people were like, "What the fuck is going on? This game is called Camelot and I'm a 50 Albion Armsman specced full Poleman and my spec is gimped? WTF? And worse, I cannot respec?"
And the idea of rerolling on DAoC was absurd since levelling to 50 was insanely difficult. My most memorable accomplishment ever in gaming is crystal clear, it was levelling my first level 50 in DAoC on Andred the PvP, FFA server. I remember when the server opened, it was like being in India: there was not one square inch of the map you could go without seeing other players, and on a FFA server that was nuts.
However, if someone wants a name change then, I agree, that's a different story. I have my personal collection of character names that I've built up over the years. They are original, rp, cool sounding, but most importantly, as unnoticeable as a tree in a forest. If some asshole choses a name like "Carebear" or "Legolaslol" and gets gang pk'd a thousand times, then maybe he or she SHOULD pay to have it changed.
I remember sitting in Wintergrasp one time on Tichondrius server in WoW watching some morons on Celestial Steed mounts, which could only be obtained by paying $25 at the cash shop. At the time I thought, "that's wild that someone could actually sell pixels that artistically didn't look that good, really they looked like shit, but sell probably hundreds for $25 each. That's crazy easy money." But never did I think Blizzard should not do it, I mean c'mon, it wasn't my fuckin game. Besides, it didn't affect my game experience one bit, imo all the in game mounts were better.
I would encourage Zen to make as much money as possible because I don't want GW2 patches with shit content, I want DAoC patches and WoW patches with real content. The last complete game M. Firor was associated with was DAoC so he definitely deserves this chance.

IMO you simply do not say those kind of things in public.
And if you were "brave" enough to say it, then at least stick to it. Do not pretend that you are so damn extremely sorry about what you said and you could not sleep at night thinking about it. All those apologies look really fake.
Anyone with a half brain understands that there are things that you should keep to yourself and not spread it in public, specially when you know that the company you work for, can easily fire you because of a simple tweet.

Wind: 0 mph
To The Editor:
Regarding the wind turbine debate, there are different aspects. First environmental concerns: While I'm not qualified to discuss the intricacies of this subject, wait till Vermont Yankee has an accident and see what that does to your cares and woes.
Then there is the statement that not enough power would be generated to make much difference. There can only be one answer to that. We need a lot more of them! I have traveled extensively across this country and I've seen huge exquisite forests of them. Bet they make a difference.
Next there is the question of their placement on mountain ridges. Maybe that's where the wind is.
Finally, some don't like what they do to the view. I happen to think they're beautiful. Now you may disagree. That's your right. On the other hand, I'm an artist and my aesthetic perception is superior to yours. How arrogant, you say. Don't care.

Because Palm Springs is situated in a valley, the city has amazing mountain views. The Golf Capital of the World is truly a refuge in the desert. Travelers on a budget or looking to splurge will find plenty of places to lay their heads here.
For the most dining and shopping opportunities, as well as easy access to the city's best museums, check out the Palm Springs downtown area. It features the best selection of hotels in all price ranges. Hip and trendy hotels mix with budget-friendly chains and bed and breakfasts, so however you like to travel, you'll have a variety of choices near everything you want to do.
All of the casinos in Palm Springs are located in their own resorts where you can book a room near all your favorite games of chance and nightly entertainment. You won't have to go very far to enjoy great food either, since great restaurants are all just an elevator ride away. If you like to stay outside of the city center, then there are several casino resorts a short drive from downtown.
Retro hotels and vacation rentals can be found in the North End, near much of the outdoor activities in the city, including the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway over Chino Canyon and off-roading and dune buggy tours. You'll be in close proximity to the best hiking and biking trails of the city.
Historical and midcentury-modern accommodations are an Uptown Palm Springs Design District staple. These unique digs are perfect for open-minded travelers, as many of them cater to the LGBT community and the clothing-optional crowd. This is a world away from what you probably expected to find in a town like Palm Springs that is known for golf tournaments and retired residents, but it is becoming a trendsetting and accepting community that gives travelers of all sorts a place to feel comfortable calling it their home away from home.
Hotels in Palm Springs
If you're looking for fun in the sun, there's no better place to be than Palm Springs. This resort city sees sunshine an average of 354 days a year. This desert oasis offers plenty of indoor and outdoor activities for people of all ages and is specifically known for its hiking, sparkling pools, country clubs, and sleek mid-20th century architecture. Palm Springs was the private hideaway of many Hollywood stars in the 1950s and 1960s and has recently experienced a resurgence in popularity. Palm Springs especially attracts members of the LGBT community as well as naturist communities, and many of the resorts cater specifically to both demographics.

We can also help you find deals on flights into Palm Springs International Airport and car rentals.
Outdoor Attractions
Palm Springs is brimming with outdoor recreational activities and is a nature lover's desert paradise. Situated in the Coachella Valley, the city boasts incredible mountain views. If you only have time to do one thing in Palm Springs, you must make time for a ride along the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. The world's largest rotating tramcar takes you for a 10-minute ride that passes through five different biomes, and the high elevation lets you escape the heat. The tram rotates 360 degrees so you can see in all directions without moving. Upon disembarking, you can hike the trails along the San Jacinto Mountains. In the winter months, you can even go sledding, snowshoeing, or cross-country skiing. There are also restaurants at the summit offering spectacular views.
Open daily from October through June, the Indian Canyons, which consist of Palm Canyon, Andreas Canyon, and Murray Canyon, offer trails of varying intensities that range from easy to strenuous. Along the trails, you can find palm trees, towering rock formations, and many types of wildlife. When hiking either of these trails, make sure you pack plenty of water. The South Lykken Trail is another scenic nature trail of moderate difficulty that offers spectacular views of the valley. Another must-see for any nature lover is the Coachella Valley Preserve, a 20,000-acre sanctuary that is home to several species of rare wildlife. If you want to see desert plants but have limited time, head over to the Moorten Botanical Garden. This family-owned garden is open to the public and specializes in cacti and other desert plants.
Indoor Attractions
Of course, there are plenty of indoor attractions as well. The Palm Springs Art Museum offers exhibits throughout the year and has a permanent collection housing the works of international modern and contemporary artists as well as Mesoamerican, Western American, and Native American art. Admission is free Thursday nights and the second Sunday of every month. Within the museum is the Annenberg Theater, which hosts theatrical and musical performances. Since Palm Springs is a retreat for many celebrities, it's no surprise that the shopping, dining, and nightlife opportunities are among some of the very best. Some of the most highly-rated restaurants include Trio, Le Vallauris, and Miro's. The Uptown Design District is loaded with antique shops, fashion boutiques, and art galleries. The Desert Hills Premium Outlets, located 20 miles west of Palm Springs, features 180 outlet stores from high fashion designers and brands. After a long day of shopping and exploring, relax at one of the Palm Springs hotels. Palm Springs resorts often have outdoor, after-dark spa services so you can get pampered under the stars.
Palm Springs hosts several events throughout the year. The most distinguished of these events is the Palm Springs International Film Festival. Taking place each January, the Palm Springs International Film Festival is one of the largest of its kind in North America and attracts more than 135,000 people each year. The festival is also known for its star-studded Black Tie Awards Gala, which honors the best film achievements of the year and is open to the public with the purchase of a festival pass. Recent attendees have included George Clooney, Ben Affleck, Daniel Day-Lewis, Clint Eastwood, Leonardo DiCaprio, Natalie Portman, Kate Winslet, Brad Pitt, Sean Penn, and Cate Blanchett. Another annual event for film buffs is the Arthur Lyons Film Noir Festival. This is a more recent festival that takes place each May and features a mix of landmark and esoteric films from the classic film noir era. Several of the screenings are followed by Q&A discussion sessions by distinguished movie stars.
One of the most anticipated events in Palm Springs takes place twice a year. McCormick's Exotic Car Auction is held every February and November at the Spa Resort Casino. The auctions are open to the public and feature more than 500 classic and exotic cars. The events are open to buyers and spectators alike and have become a Palm Springs tradition. The auctions attract thousands of classic car enthusiasts from around the world.
Best Times to Visit
Peak season is during the months of January through April, which is when the weather conditions are optimal. Palm Springs hotels for this time fill up fast, so be sure to make your reservation early. The fall months are also pleasant times to visit and are less crowded, and you can still catch the November car auction. Summer is low season, as the temperatures enter the triple digits. However, you can find great Palm Springs hotel deals for this very reason. If you want to avoid the crowds and plan on spending most of your vacation exploring indoor attractions, summer is the time for you, not to mention that there are pools around every corner and the air is always 30 degrees cooler at the top of the San Jacinto Mountains. If you're traveling in low season, keep in mind that some places close during these months or have shorter hours. Then, choose from the best hotels Palm Springs has to offer when you plan your trip with Travelocity!

Best Uses
This is a lightweight, roomy chair cover with only one cinch tie at the bottom. Because it's so big and goes right to the ground, it's easy to get on and off. It's definitely not a heavy duty cover but it's worth the money.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Too Short
Best Uses
Cover is too short. Does not cover the legs enough which allows wind to get under it since The drawstring is suppose to prevent that. It does not pull easily and does not serve the purpose it is suppose to.
- Can~'~~t Think Of Any
- Flimsy Inferior Material
Best Uses
Compared to other adirondack chair covers I own, these are of inferior quality and poor design. The cover itself is single-ply plastic with no lining. There is no means of securing the covers to the chairs (no ties, elastic bottoms, etc.), which means you have to weight them down with bricks to keep them from blowing away. They are also not large enough to cover the whole chair.
I definitely will not buy these again.

Partly Cloudy
Wind: 0 mph
To The Editor:
I grew up in Waitsfield and have family members who still live here. So, while I am not a resident of the community and, therefore, have no financial stake in the issue of the town's new offices, I have been interested in the debate. It seems clear to me that the town officials have, from the beginning, rigged the process against the old Methodist Church option. According to a resolution adopted by the Waitsfield Town Office Task Force on January 17, 2013, a December 20, 2012, survey showed "a strong preference" for the church site. Despite this, and the task force's acknowledgement that the "ultimate decision" about which option would be chosen would be left up to the voters, they encouraged the select board not to give the voters a choice—and voted in favor of the Farm Stand site.
Funding proposals were presented to voters a number of times. At no time were they given the option of choosing one site over the other. Voters still won't get this opportunity during the vote on October 22. Prior to the last vote, voters were informed that a $750,000 Community Block Grant award would be at risk if the bond vote failed. Coincidence? I don't think so. When notice of the public hearing on the intended grant application was provided by the town in January 2013, it conveniently made no mention of the church site. That was the major reason the state refused to consider the church site as part of the grant application. The church site was also not considered because the town's application, according to the state, was insufficiently developed in comparison to the Farm Stand site. The town was made aware of these deficiencies, but no attempt was made to correct them.
This is just another example of public servants manipulating the system from behind the scenes to get the result they desire. Voters never got a choice. And now, with the announcement of an "anonymous gift" to support the Farm Stand proposal likely tipping the scales more in its favor, they arguably never will.

Jersey Shore
Snooki Debuts Classy New Glasses and a Different Look! Check Out Her Transformation (PHOTOS)
Let's be honest: Snooki was never known for being an intellectual on Jersey Shore. However, that didn't stop the gorgeous guidette from looking the part in a pair of glasses and a business-casual outfit once in a while. Though she adds flair to her pencil skirts with leopard print and typically wears big "nerd" frames, we still give her an "A" for effort.
But yesterday, everything changed. Snooks took a few selfies wearing glasses, but they weren't the "Snerdz" we've come to know and love — they were classy, toned-down — and, dare we say, normal — spectacles!
Without commentary about the sudden change, the young mama Instagrammed this lovely two-part selfie in which she looks stunning in more rectangular, simple black frames, natural makeup, and an adorable fedora. While we can't see her outfit, it looks like she has something equally as simple and black on — maybe even a blazer!
Since Snooks is on the West Coast right now, she may be having some meetings. And though everyone loves her for her fun, sassy style, this new look may make people take her more seriously as a businesswoman.
What do you think of Snooki's classy new look? Sound off below!

Last week's Under the Radar 2012 conference (UTR) provided me and other attendees with a glimpse of what's going to be hot in the coming year from a startup and technology standpoint. Take your pick from the following hot-list of terms: Big Data, analytics, mobile, enterprise, private cloud, security and platforms. They are all intertwined in some way or another.
The format of UTR is fun, one of the MC's described it as the American Idol for Startups. Basically, each startup (which have been in stealth mode and only just coming from behind the curtains) had 6 minutes to do an "elevator pitch" describing their product or service, how it works, why it is important and what they are looking to achieve. The startups were grouped by a theme (Mobile Access, Infrastructure, Performance Monitoring, PaaS, Database Scalability, Cloud Services and Big Data) and there were 4 companies being judged within each category. And what about the judges? Akin to the American Idol style, they were a collection of industry experts who asked poignant and humorous questions to drill deeper into the presentation pitch. The judges then selected their choice as the winning company, and the audience got to weigh in as well via a mobile text vote.
This marked the 3rd year that GoGrid sponsored UTR and the 2nd year having GoGrid CMO Jeffrey Samuels as a judge on one of the startup panels ("Performance Monitoring"). And several of us from GoGrid (including Rupert Tagnipes who provides his analysis of the Infrastructure, Database Scalability and Big Data sessions he covered in his Part 2 article) attended the sessions to see what upcoming technology trends were emerging, what companies were concerned about and what direction we are all heading. Personally, I attended the Mobile Access, Performance Monitoring and PaaS sessions and my analysis and personal winner choices for these sessions are below (note: my choices are my own opinion and not that of GoGrid.)
From the sessions that I saw, there seemed to be a clear trend of enterprise mobility, security, data analysis and simply "making things easier." Also, a majority of the companies presenting seemed to have well vetted business plans, were monetizing and actually have customers and users. This is obviously a big difference from those wonderful "dot-com" days when you really didn't need anything and VCs simply threw money at you. Conversely, while supposedly coming out of stealth-mode, most of these presenting companies were well down the path of success. The sections below include the Judge's Winner, the Audience Winner, and My Choice.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - No Doubt has settled its lawsuit against gaming giant Activision over the use of the band's likenesses in the video game "Band Hero."
Court records show the Grammy-winning band reached a settlement Monday. The band sued over a feature in the game that allowed players to perform other artists' songs using the likenesses of frontwoman Gwen Stefani and other band members.
Activision Publishing Inc. had denied all wrongdoing. A judge ruled earlier this year that No Doubt could argue fraud, violation of publicity rights and breach of contract claims at a trial scheduled Oct. 15.
The band's 2009 lawsuit claimed the game turned it "into a virtual karaoke circus act."
The band's attorney, Bert Deixler, declined comment and an attorney for Activision did not return a phone message.

The Cherry Street Cycles Reparto Corse, which is Italian for racing division, team will begin racing in events throughout the Southeast in the spring, team member Chad Madan said.
"We train and ride all year long, but most of the races are held from early spring through mid-fall, so that's sort of our season," he said.
The team was announced at a photo session at the Cherry Street Cycles bicycle shop at 420 Cotton Ave. in Macon last Tuesday, with Macon Mayor Robert Reichert on hand.
Cherry Street Cycles owner Damon Allen said the new team shakes up the Middle Georgia racing community, with many of the members coming from several other area teams.
"It is amateur racing, but the riders are still under contract to their teams," he said. "Several of our riders' contracts were ending with the teams they were riding for, so it will be a surprise to many in the racing community that they will be joining a new team."

Diana RWS 48 Air Rifle, TO6 Trigger
5.0(70 reviews)
From: RWS
Lifetime limited warranty
Average Customer Review5.0 (13 reviews)
Create an online reviewand share your thoughts with other customers
Things I liked:the power, accuracy, and overall quality! it has a ratcheting safety catch when you cock it. "witch means, "if you loose your grip and your hand slips while youre cocking it" it wont damage your rifle. automatic safety too. just about everything except the trigger.
Things I would have changed:the trigger needs to be made out of metal. some adjustable fiber optic sights would be nice for use without a scope. stud mounts installed at the factory would be nice too, this gun is heavy. make one in .20 and .25 cal. with velocity ratings at 1000fps in .20cal and 800fps in .25cal. preferably.
What others should know:put a good scope and mounts on this gun. i have a 4-16X40 tactical illuminated mill dot ajustable objective scope and some steel mounts on mine. i also put locktite on the screws. this gun has recoil, its a precision machine, that is really capable of dialing the distance. this gun has power in spades, "not a toy!". mine is in 22 cal., at 30 yards mine blows through 3/8" plywood with a crossman wadcutter pellet, printing 10 shot quarter size groups. i shot a 4 1/4 lb rabbit at 67 yards with an "old style" daisy double ring pointed pellet. the pellet took out both lungs and nicked the heart. the rabbit never moved from the spot i shot him from.the pellet almost came through the other side of the hide, there was a bulge. mine really likes pellets in the 13 to 15 grain range. this is not a carry all day in the field pellet gun, it's a get into position and snipe gun. mine really likes the crossman feild and target dommed pellets. for hunting up to 30 yards i use 14.3 grain wadcutters, 30-50 yards i use dommed pellets 50-75 yards i use pointed pellets. i do not recomend shooting anything beyond 75 yards, because the pellets energy declines rapidly beyond that. however, when the wind is right, i have knocked over empty tin cans at 100 yards. if you want an excellent fixed barrel spring piston pellet rifle, this is the one to get. worth every penny! buy this one, very satisfied with mine. here!
There must still be a lot of energy at 100 yards, my new RWS 52 (.22)will go though the bottom of a 2 1/2 inch soup can at 100 yards!
Things I liked:I bought this gun about 15 years ago. It is my first quality airgun and have no regrets at all. I have the .177 cal. At the time, I thought it cost a fortune for an air rifle, but the way it shoots make it worth every cent. It seems to like every type of pellet I've fed it. It shoots an inch at 50 yards with iron sites. (more me than the gun) I have about 5000 rnds thru it without a hitch. I just bought a Chrony to really check out this rifle and my firearm reloads. The iron sites are excellent considering many firearms. This thing takes crows at 40 to 50 yards and drops them like a bag of rocks. I'm looking at adding another RWS today.
Things I would have changed:The downside for me, so far is scope mounting. I have yet to find the right scope and mount for this rifle. I'm sure the equipment exists, I just haven't found it. I can't get the scope to stay put long enough to site it in. I put an inexpensive 'airgun' BSA scope on it and that lasted about 20 rnds. None of the rnds hit within 5"s of the other. The eye relief bounced back and forth wildly, that's how I knew it was the scope/mount combo more than anything else. I have a .300 Win Mag that has no problem at all. My search for the right scope/mount combo continues so I can unleash the real potential of this rifle.
What others should know:Find the right scope/mount for this gun. I'm sure it will shoot M.O.A. Save the money if that's an issue, but buy this gun, you won't regret it.
Things I liked:packaging was excellent-delivery time was fast. apparently high quality. accuracy good with CP 14.3 domes.
Things I would have changed:maybe slim down the stock a little
What others should know:this is a large, heavy airgun--seems almost like over kill. It is certainly not for youngsters. buy it on sale and it is a great value.

4.5(95 reviews)
From: Hammerli
1-year limited warranty
Average Customer Review4.5 (6 reviews)
Create an online reviewand share your thoughts with other customers
Things I liked:Given that Gamo usually builds spring guns, they did a GREAT job on this CO2 rifle. Here's what I liked: generally quite, powerful and consistent, good build quality, VERY fun to shoot, pump action is unique and a great for small game hunting as you keep your eye always on the target.
Things I would have changed:Nothing's perfect and that goes for the CO2 Extreme as well. The price is too high given that the Hammerli 850 is of much better quality and less money (without a scope). The scope needs to have AO. The bundled scope is great if you are shooting past 35 yards... unfortunately that is outside of this rifles effective range. Get closer to the advertised 700 FPS. With 14.3 gr Crosman pellets I averaged about 550 give or take. Hobbies topped out at 630 FPS. Lastly, take a lesson from the Hammerli and do something about that spongy trigger.
What others should know:I got the best groups at 10 and 20 yards with the Crosman Ultra Magnums. For plinking, target shooting, and even pest control, the CO2 Extreme is a great option inside 20 yards. If you don't want to mess with spring, pump, or PCP, this gives decent power, and very respectable accuracy along with ease of use.
Things I liked:This is an update, I wrote an earlier review and I still think this is a great rifle.
Things I would have changed:The Gamo Extreme CO2 has a limitation if you don't use the gun for more than 24 to 48 hours (the limit to whiich you can store the gun with a partially or completely filled CO2 cylinder.) This a real waste of a CO2 Cylinder if you go hunting but once a week. I sent an email to GAMO USA suggesting the following modification.: Maybe the rifle could be improved by adding a CO2 Cylinder shutoff valve to relieve the gas pressure when not in use. The valve could be closed by an allen wrench accessed through the bottom of the stock. Once the valve is closed the remaining CO2 pressure can be released by removing the magazine and pulling the trigger. This would neutralize any pressure on the trigger CO2 release valve and would keep from wasting CO2 by removing a partially used CO2 Cylinder. The best thing about this modification would be that the gun would always be ready to use just by reopening the CO2 cylinder pressure release valve.
very good idea,thanks!!!
Would be better if gamo set it up to use shotshells also on a rotoryclip to shoot both.i have also a gamo viper also a great gamo gun to own very accurate even with crossman hunting field point lead lots of nockdown power even at 80yds
Place thread sealing tape (teflon tape) on the threads of the CO2 before installing cylinder, helps stop the CO2 leaking out, while not in use
Things I liked:What a nice CO2 rifle. WOW! Shoots EXTREMEly well. Easy to sight in, accurate. I like everything about it. It was 50 degrees when I sighted in the rifle and I was able to get over 150 shots in. It should not have a problem when used in warmer weather getting 180 to 200 shots per CO2 cyclinder.
Things I would have changed:Add rilfe sling mounts.
What others should know:I purchased this and when it arrived it appeared to have be used. The pump section for cocking the gun was loose and I had a hard time getting the CO2 cyclinder installed. Rear sight ramp was loose in the bag. The gun would not fire after the first cyclinder was removed and a new one was installed. I returned the rifle to GAMO and they sent me a new one. Great Customer Service! I picked this rifle because I am somewhat disabled and cocking some of the spring loaded rifles is not possible. Check out the videos on YouTube and it shows that this rifle is capable of taking a nice varielty of small game.
Wanted to let gamo owners know shooting less or more rounds has to only do with the co2 cartridge itself & nothing to do with the rifle u purchased.

First Look at 'Halo: Reach' Series 2 Advance; Series 3 Announced
New Figure Lineup, Photos, and a Chance to Get Some Figures Early
Friday, October 15, 2010
Halo: Reach Series 1 is in stores now, but it's going fast! Our next assortment of Halo: Reach action figures hits retailers everywhere in January. Can't wait for 2011 to get your hands on more Halo figures? Well, due to the success of the advance wave of Halo: Reach Series 1, we've added an advance wave to Series 2! This four-figure preview line is exclusive to Target stores, and will be on their shelves in December. Which lucky figures are making the jump to 2010? Check out these new photos for the answer...
Noble One, Spartan-259, is the leader of Noble Team, the veteran Spartan unit that players join in Halo: Reach. This action figure features every detail of his custom armor livery -- from his Commando helmet, shoulder, and chest to the Tactical/Tacpad accessory on his forearm. Figure includes Designated Marksman Rifle and Frag Grenade.
This classic version of the Grunt enemy features the familiar conical methane tank and orange armor fans remember from the Halo trilogy, ODST, Halo Wars, and now Halo: Reach. Figure includes removable backpack and gas mask and comes with Needler and Plasma Grenade weapons.
This heavily customized male Spartan features a well-rounded armor selection including CQC base helmet with UA/Multi-Threat shoulders and chest. This figure is ready for solo multiplayer with his all-white color scheme and includes Assault Rifle and Frag Grenade.
We've also added a special exclusive figure that will only be available in this early wave. Our first multiplayer Elite figure features the standard Minor-level armor in the classic Red Team color, and comes with the trusty Plasma Rifle, formerly only available in a Series 1 two-pack.
The most common armor of the Sangheili invasion force, the Elite Minor armor is also the default choice for multiplayer combatants who choose to fight for the other side. This figure is ready for team-based multiplayer with his all-red color scheme and includes Plasma Rifle and Plasma Grenade.
We've got a lot more of Reach planned for 2011. The rest of Series 2 will be available in January, and Series 3 is scheduled for April. Halo: Reach Series 3 will include:
Single Figures
Noble 3, Spartan-266 is Noble Team's chatty, but rock-solid sniper. This figure captures every detail of Jun's custom armor loadout, from Scout helmet to Sniper shoulder to Tactical/Recon chest with camouflage hood. Figure comes with Sniper Rifle and Frag Grenade.
ODST Jetpack Trooper
The "Bullfrog" ODSTs encountered in New Alexandria were characterized by their use of UNSC jetpacks. This figure is based on the Halo: Reach ODSTs' early design, emphasizing their affiliation with UNSC Army Troopers. Figure comes with Jetpack and Magnum.
Elite Spec Ops
This Sangheili specialist features the sleek, streamlined armor of the Special Operations branch and a dark, stealthy paint scheme. Figure comes with Energy Sword and Plasma Grenade.
Grunt Heavy
The Grunt Heavy has always been identifiable by its green armor, but the Halo: Reach version introduces a never-before-seen cylindrical methane tank and facemask with round goggles. Figure features removable backpack, facemask, gas mask, and comes with Plasma Pistol and Plasma Grenade.
Spartan Military Police custom (male) (team blue)
One of a handful of assets shared between branches of the UNSC armed forces, the Military Police helmet is common to both Spartans and Beta-5 Security forces. This figure comes with the fully enclosed Spartan variant of the Military Police helmet, Gungnir shoulder, Recon shoulder and chest, DMR, and Frag Grenade.
Spartan Air Assault (female) (rose/rose)
For the first time in Halo multiplayer, Spartans can select not only a female voice, but a female body. Our first female multiplayer Spartan features an Air Assault helmet, FJ/Para kneeguards, and a feminine pink rose color scheme. Figure comes with Assault Rifle and Frag Grenade.
Spartan JFO (male) (rust/rust)
The Joint Fires Observer helmet is reserved for Spartans of Lieutenant Colonel rank and above. Figure comes with custom blue visor, matching JFO shoulders, Assault Rifle and Frag Grenade. Exclusive to Toys "R" Us.
Spartan Operator (male) (steel/steel)
This Sergeant-level Spartan is equipped with the base Operator helmet with Command Network Module. Figure comes with matching Operator shoulders, Assault Rifle and Frag Grenade. Exclusive to GameStop.
Spartan Military Police custom (male) (brown/forest)
One of a handful of assets shared between branches of the UNSC armed forces, the Military Police helmet is common to both Spartans and Beta-5 Security forces. This figure comes with the fully enclosed Spartan variant of the Military Police helmet, Gungnir shoulder, Recon shoulder and chest, Shotgun, and Frag Grenade. Exclusive to Target.
Figure 2-Packs
Covenant Airborne 2-Pack
The Spartans have taken to the skies in Halo: Reach multiplayer, but the Elites have jetpacks of their own! This 2-pack features two multiplayer Elites, ready to blast off and rain death from above. Set includes a green Elite Officer and a steel Elite Ultra, both with Elite Jetpacks. Figures come with Plasma Rifle, Concussion Rifle, and two Plasma Grenades.
Spartan Loadouts: Grenadier & Expert Marksman 2-Pack
This set is pure Halo: Reach multiplayer action in its most basic form: two multiplayer Spartans, in classic team colors, each with a different loadout. Red Team is represented by a male Spartan Military Police custom, with the "Grenadier" loadout -- including the action figure debut of the Grenade Launcher -- plus an Assault Rifle, and two Frag Grenades. Blue Team is represented by a male Spartan Operator with the "Expert Marksman" loadout of DMR, Magnum, and two Frag Grenades.
UNSC Trooper Support Staff 2-Pack
The UNSC Army has nearly as much variety in its troopers as there is in the Spartan ranks. Series 1 brought you the straightforward offense of the Light and Heavy Troopers; Series 3 reinforces the Trooper ranks with two of the Army's "support staff:" the Medic Trooper and Radio Trooper. The Medic is equipped with the standard Magnum sidearm; the Radioman includes his specialized communications gear and a Shotgun for close-quarters combat. They're the perfect personnel for your UNSC Warthog, or assisting your Noble Six in a fireteam deployment.
Series 2 Advance hits Target in December 2010, the full Series 2 arrives everywhere in January 2011, and Series 3 is scheduled for April 2011.

"For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit." (1 Peter 46 KJV)I know many here believe this verse supports the gospel being preached to the dead. But, I was reading this tonight and realized it could mean something else...dead...still alive but dead spiritually.Thoughts?
Jesus didn't evangelize, he proclaimed, letting those demons in that underworld know He had "conquered",
if ye have not the love of God in you[spirit of God/God is love] you are spiritually dead.. though you walk about in a body. our body is as good as de3ad..due to sin and tresspass...eating from the tokogae in disobediance..was a tresspass against God and His Sovereignty
