When I taught a steeking class a while back I had a clever idea to bring a sweater that I had prepared for steeking to show the students how Not Scary steeking is. I used a J.Crew sweater that I had bought at the thrift store for $3.50. The sweater is the old J.Crew standby rollneck, in 100% wool. It was heavily pilled when I bought it, but I snipped off most of the pills with some sharp scissors and really, it practically looks new.
I crocheted the steek before the class, then cut it during class. Then this poor slashed sweater has sat in a bag for months while I decided what to do with it.
Yesterday inspiration finally hit: I received Alice Starmore's Book of Fair Isle Knitting from Anne, and it is colder now (necessitating more wool), and I'm going to a wool festival to teach a class on stranded knitting. SO! I decided to knit some colorwork bands on the borders using a chart from the AS book and I can wear it while I teach my class!
First a swatch.
Then, what I thought would be a quick, one day project took me hours and hours. And I'm only halfway done. And I don't know if I like it or not.
Here's how it went. First I checked my gauge and decided how many stitches to pick up. Next I picked up the stitches, cast on steek stitches and began to work the pattern in the round. After a turning row after the color pattern was complete, I knit a facing to cover the colorwork band and the green reinforcing stitches.
The knitting didn't take long, it was the figuring and planning and finishing that took longer than I thought (it always does, but I love that part anyway). I'm not sure I'm in love with the colors, but I used yarn I had on hand. The front band is now very heavy, but every time I try it on it lays nicely. The top of the band matches up with the top of the rollneck in a pleasing way, but the bottom is all out of whack and I can't decide if it's okay or not okay. If it is not okay, I can't figure out how I would fix it.
Nonetheless. The sweater is 1) warm, 2) visually interesting (I think) and 3) a way to have a something unique without having to knit a whole damn sweater. I should finish it.

After the balloon rises 100,000+ft into the sky it will burst and the package will fall back to earth. If we let it fall, the package would crash into the ground at full speed and our equipment would break! We will use a parachute and padding to slow it down and cushion the equipment.
Some of our equipment is fragile and if not protected will crack and break much like an egg. If we want to get the equipment back safely, we will have to determine what the best way to cushion the equipment is. We will be using a parachute to slow us down, so the impact will be similar to dropping an egg from 10ft or near the ceiling which is about 17mph.

After the very long trip back to Earth the flight unit could end up hanging from a tree, out in a lake, at the top of a hill or crashed against rocks. We took our landing idea over to Armstrong Brands in West Seneca. They guys at Armstrong specialize in Styrofoam and they had just the container to help us make it a safe trip.
In order to be prepared for any type of landing, we chose to use a 2" thick Styrofoam container for extra padding. The container is about the size of a small cooler and will survive a rough impact as well as float on water!
We met with Armstrong engineers in their West Seneca offices along with packaging specialists from an aerospace & defense company called MOOG and designed a flight unit that will hold all our gear complete with special darkened conical holes for the cameras. Our container turned out to be lightweight and very strong and best of all it can be recycled when we are done!
Here's some neat facts about Styrofoam:
Safe & Healthy Throughout Its Life Cycle
• Made of 98% air, EPS is an inert material without harmful chemicals that off-gas or leach during its use or disposal.
• EPS is widely recognized as a safe choice for use in food contact packaging by government regulatory agencies throughout the world.
Meets Performance & Cost Market Criteria
• Because of its versatility EPS offers significant savings in design and development, product assembly and distribution costs.
• With customized packaging designs EPS delivers exactly the right amount of product protection. Its high tensile strength and cellular structure give this lightweight product exceptional cushioning properties.
Maximizes Renewable or Recycled Source Materials
• Recycled EPS is used in both closed-loop and open-loop processes to make a variety of applications from recycled-content foam packaging to durable goods and innovative new building products.
• In 2006 more than 52% of all EPS collected for recycling was used to make recycled-content packaging.
Uses Clean Production Technologies & Best Practices
• Innovations in manufacturing technologies ensure EPS production minimizes energy consumption with mold cavities that cool quickly and manufacturing processes that recycle water and recapture air emissions.
• Many EPS manufacturers are ISO certified.
Physically Designed to Optimize Energy & Materials
• EPS feedstock is converted into a finished product 32 times its original volume-virtually turning air into a strong and efficient packaging material.
• If all EPS packaging were replaced with corrugated cardboard, paper, wood, molded fiber etc., compared with current figures raw material requirements would rise to 560%, power consumption to 215% and the landfill volume to 150%.

Comments about Meinl Skin Maracas:
I thought theses were full sized maracas they are small kind of like a baby rattle but I am not upset at all! They sound really great. They are good for some where you can't make so much noise or to practice, you can fit 1 in each pant pocket very comfortably and pull em out and get your rumba on at any party, they are cute little maracas. I do recommend them only if your looking for nice mini maracas ;-)

Terrific surprise effect- they think they know how the trick works, but it turns out they are wrong!
Place a top hat or another similar size container on your table. Bring out a bright yellow wooden block and a beautifully finished wood box with two compartments and four doors. As you open all the doors, your spectators can see right through the openings in the box- it's empty!
Now, with all doors open, you place the block into the left compartment and close the doors. Tell your audience that the block has "disappeared" and tilt the box to one side. Your audience can hear the block sliding into the right compartment! You open the left hand door to "prove" the block is gone. Of course, they tell you that the die just slid over into the other compartment. Then you close the door, tilt the box so the audience hears the block slide to the left compartment, and again tell them that the block is gone, opening the right side door this time. The audience tells you that the die has just slid over to the left. So this time, you open the right side AND the left side doors at the same time- and the block is indeed gone! And THEN you produce the block from the hat that was sitting on your table all along!
Great effect that gets your audience crazy!
This See Thru Block Vanish is easily seen from stage. Plus, it's gorgeous! Made of solid wood with a beautiful blue painted finish for years and years of troublefree use.
You provide the hat, box or bag to put the block into.

Revisit Fan-Favorite Battlefield 3 Maps or Infiltrate Naval Bases in the South China Sea with Upcoming Battlefield 4 Expansion Packs.
In a week, you'll take a step back in time with Battlefield 4 Second Assault, featuring four fan-favorite maps from Battlefield 3 – Operation Metro, Caspian Border, Gulf of Oman, and Operation Firestorm. Reimagined with Frostbite 3 graphics and Battlefield 4 gameplay, Battlefield 4 Second Assault will be released on February 18 for Battlefield 4 Premium members on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC, and for all Battlefield 4 players two weeks later on March 4.
Following Battlefield 4 Second Assault will be the third expansion pack, Battlefield 4 Naval Strike, launching in late March for Battlefield 4 Premium members. Stay tuned for the exact date and find all expansion pack information on Battlefield.com. In this expansion, you'll experience intense water-based combat as the Chinese armada takes the fight to the sea. You'll have access to new weapons, gadgets, and amphibious vehicles, and four all-new maps – Lost Island, Nansha Strike, Wave Breaker, and Operation Mortar.
Learn more about Battlefield 4 Second Assault
And don't forget, every day you log into the game in February, you'll get a free Battlepack as part of Battlefield 4 Player Appreciation Month.
I downloaded the new maps on the 360 and during Firestorm the game froze!!! Come on DICE i paid 50 bucks to play new maps that freeze. Since the game is so messed up i think Premium should have been free. You want people to pay 50 bucks to play a broken game with maps that freeze on the 360. I will soon have the Xbox One and hope this wont occur again. Please take this into consideration:/ Your losing a lot of fans.
Bring back Wake Island !!!
There great maps expect metro it's still bs Even more the US teams crap every game it's the same your never able to push past B Dice fix this please it's Damn right bs, and there's WAY to much grenade spam =[ other maps ant bad
Alright metro, here I come.
Hey guys I found it, if you go to the ps4 start screen and go to the "related items" tab under the battlefield 4 cover picture everything is there including Second Assault, Handgun Shortcut and DMR shortcut bundle. I can't seem to find it anywhere else but it does work from the related items tab. Hope that helps!
Thanks so much!
It would've made it too easy if they had just told us how to do it..
Its 11:16 pm on The 18th of februari and still no download availible of The sa mappack……

im in texas on central time and its still not here
Type second into ps store I'm in Texas and it worked for me
actually i'm on the east and i downloaded it already
It's pathetic how whiny the Battlefield community has gotten. The release date is a DATE not a specific time on that date. For those of you who forget that glitches existed before 2013, go play a game on an old system. As games get bigger and more complex, there will be more glitches. QA testing can't reproduce everything the millions of gamers playing millions of hours can cause. Some glitches are very hard to fix because they are linked to many other systems and changing it could cause another problem. If you hate BF4 so badly, stop playing. If you want a glitch free game, go play PONG and stop clogging the boards with your whiny bitching.
Second assault is broken on ps3
Ya I have a ps4 and I'm premium in battlefield 4 but I can't get second assault. For example whenever I go to a second assault map it says I need to buy the DLC but when I go to get the DLC it doesn't show up. I've tried going through the ps store and the in game store and nothing worked. I updated my ps4 to the newest update could that be the problem?
Please give me my 59.99 back for this piece of trash game as well as my 49.99 premium money that appearantly isn't good for anything right now…..I have been a loyal BF fan for a very long time now and the fact that I can't play a game that is finished and works correctly after 4 months of live time is pathetic. I can't even get the dlc I prepaid for….I hope you lose your class action and I will no longer support dice or BF titles again….
Im in at last! Hoorah!!!
I really enjoy being able to see that UK players are having fun playing on the servers with the new maps and me, in the US, cant join them because apparently the DLC hasn't reached American soil yet. Isnt in the PS store or anything so im sitting here doing absolutely nothing while all the Eurpoeans play the hell out of it hours and hours before me and the rest of the country. Would help if there was any way to tell when the hell we are gonna get it or did I waste my money buying premium? Thanks for the aggravation DICE.
what time dose second assault come out
Yeah, dude, that's kinda what I'm screaming LOL…
Who told u that?

If you actually perform a search for second assault on the PS4 store you'll find it too.
By the way, go to the store and download it. The update wasn't for the maps, you have to go to the store and download second assault… Downloaded it on Xbox 360, but can't find any hard core servers lol… Shame
cant find any hardcore servers for the second assault maps lol…. Really???
Tried to find it on the PS4 store and it wasn't there.
Go to the SEN store on your computer and you'll find it on there and you can add it to your download queue.
I cant get it either. This is what we pay for?? EA CAN SUCK À FART OUT OF MY ASSHOLE
Their is a time when they come out here they are in the link.
So…. apparently no one knows the deal with second assault
Tell us the deal then
Why cantt I play these damn new maps? I am premium and other people are playin according to my server browser. All I get is the "buy dlc" option and then no option to download it
youre not alone
Any news on why?
nope, don't think soo

Yes, it seems they have delays ..As usual with psn..x box and pc have it already.We have to wait ..player appreciation??? is that what they call this??

Im wondering if the Second Assault DLC premium release is time zone specific? Im on the East Coast I still haven't seen it pop up on the in-game store. I'm thinking it may be released to all of us on pacific standard time?
Seriously, why isn't Second Assault on the battlefield store when it says that the new pack has came out and all? I am premium so shouldn't it be in the store?
In browser menu people are playing it now but I can't join plus I am premium member.
Im having the same exact problem. Whats going on ? Why cant i play the new map packs
Plus i still cant play Capture the Flag keepa saying i dont have one or more dlc to play. Well im disappointed
whatsthe solution ? .?
I know the same thing is happening to me! The only prompts I get are to make sure my console and game are fully updated, and the dlc should be available after in the store! Is there are time zone release for it today?
yea I'm premium member aswell and nothing, like does it come at a later time?????
Was looking forward to getting spawn killed on metro tonight. Oh well.

Mrgadetgu7 thanks for that link it says a lot.
Servers are updating between 4am and 8am EST, so any time between or after that as we won't be able to play them when they doing updates.
ORIGIN says its available at 4am EST
Soooooo… seems like it won't be released anytime on the 18th for Aussies.. good job DICE.
Guysss…. If you are on the PS4 it will be out once the PSN store has been updated.. Chill out .Gezzzz.. I am excited too,, Dammit Sony update your store already!!!!
It will be released in the in game store. Nothing to do with the psn store as I'm sure you would have noticed in previous games.
Plus the 19th isn't the 18th is it?
So it's released on the 19th?
Just another bf4 let down to add to the never ending list.
Xbox 360: 1:00AM PST — 5:00AM PST
PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 (North America): 2:00PM PST — 6:00PM PST

Does Second Assault become available for download at Midnight tonight?
What exact time is it planned to be launched for PC ? anyone knows? im fucking pumped for this!
1am US Eastern time
Are they increasing the maximum XP levels higher then 110? I hear rumors that they are yet some people aren't sure.
Maps look awesomep
Keep it. Your liars. Crooks. Thieves. You have not fixed the base game already purchased. You have this appreciation crap to hurry us through the game because you don't and never have intended on fixing anything.
Thank god I'm Premuim
Sucks not to be Premium.
So if you can't let me change my kit loadout on the My Solider than at least let our fucking settings save when we decide to leave a server before the match finishes. It's pretty annoying having to change your kit to exactly what you need when everyone else is waiting on you to get in the fight and then you lose server connection and you have to do it all over again! I've had the game for two weeks now and these glitches and inability to save kit loadouts is making me want to rip out my hair. What the hell happened to Levolution for China Rising? I know I'm late to the game but it's pretty fucking stupid when you decide to drop one of your key gameplay selling points. And don't give me that crap that the "Bomber" is the levolution.
You guys complaining about maps are wasting your breath. I HOPE Oman and wake island are map packs every time this game comes out. Classics are classics. And then you get a "New map" like Rogue Transmission that makes me want to punt a kitten.
I have played BF3 for some month extensively…and I am happy that these maps will come now on Frostbite 3.. I like BF4, but some changes made from 3 to 4 are not good. The menue was much better in BF3..why I have to change my Soldier during the match…? Why I am not able to choose the map like in BF3? I would also apreciate a map editor… but all in all…a great game! Tack så mycket DICE.
How much wil th new dlc cost for non premium member
around 15 euros
Sooo you keep adding s*it to something that does not work, hoping it will improve it or what? Dice's logic escapes me, completely. And this week you let some EA grade A *sshole dodge some questions and say that "they are satisfied with the sales of Bf4″, and he did not have the b*llsack to admit the game is STILL not finished? Now I'm supposed to pay more to play something i, among thousands of others, have played intensively for a couple of years now.. I have been a BIG fan ever since Bad Company and enjoyed your earlier works too. But now i think i've had it. This bulls*it will go on only as long as the players will tolerate being robbed, and the tide is gonna change for EA. I am not used to losing my s*it over any game, but BF4 sure tests me whenever i TRY to play.
I'm a NON-PREMIUM MEMBER and they said you have to pay extra for their 'UP AN COMING' maps people would enjoy. I got the game. I don't want to pay again just for these maps! Just put the extra content up for free, then they wouldn't have as much (or ANY) haters!
Dude, I feel exactly the same way. Been on since BF2 pc. This game feels arcady and it's pointless to fly with 50 different people with IGLA and anti air tanks with unlimited range. It's laughable that I put over $100 that I could have helped a poor person buy a whole wardrobe.
Seriously you're gonna release old maps? Battlefield and DICE you guys are doing the best job of butchering this game. I get that you may be too busy to design new maps because you're "trying" to fix the game, in my opinion you should
A: not release anything until the game works.
B: fix the fucking game already.
C: have the respect for yourselves to put in the effort of making new maps. The money you guys make is ridiculous so you should stop being lazy and give the fans something new. Call of Duty is a piece of shit and you are dangerously close to their level.
Thanks for disrespecting your community with this so called "appreciation month" by giving us battlepacks full of emblems and profile pics… give us something worthwhile
Disrespecting the community?! We want these maps, just because you don't want them doesn't mean others don't. They game is improving steadily and is light years ahead of what it was just weeks ago. I'm sure you would find something else to whine about even if the game was perfect.
i would like to see you make a better game this game is amazing and i loved gulf of oman from bf2 and bf3 and im happy to see the new maps that there coming out with
Bring bake the fully automatic M4A1 it is a classic modern military rifle. In bf4 the m4 stucks as only a three round burst. Also change the way the Chinese support guy looks like
Wow, so awesome!!! Oh, but here's an idea, FIX WHAT IS BROKEN! You half a$$ game makers. Are you kidding me? Horrible gun tweaks, vehicle tweaks, assault packs, but you won't fix stability issues. All I can say is wow, I will never buy a Dice game again.
you will, you are clearly just shit at the game because it plays just fine for me why not learn to play properly before blaming the game, a bad workman after all blames his tools
thank you someone agrees
who gives a shit about maps or crash's i played many old games that froze lost game data and they was fun………….this game needs balance worste game ive played in years and ive played them all since atari.
Is there a way to balance the multiplayer games that would load the game by player rankings so that we can have some equally balanced games. There is nothing like playing a balanced multiplayer game that goes to the last kill to win in conquest! On the other side, it's really frustrating to play in a game that is so unbalanced that it's not even fun. Have the server equal the players by ranking please!
i hope that will be 5 weapon for all DLC not for just first 2
Hey DICE- here's an idea, -_ before putting more expansions or DURING those expansions give the players veteran battlepacks, pisses me off that i paid for the premium but miss what a few other premium already have. Save the platitude, and deliver
How about new maps instead of rehashing old maps? Or better yet release a map kit so we can make our own maps like in the early days of battlefield?
I have had this map pack for over a month already. I don't get it…Feb. the 18th…I've been playing Second Assault for over a month. So…have changes been made?
If u play on xbox one then u got it earlier than everyone els
I would guess you are playing on Xbox One? Xbox One users got Second Assault early which was supposed to be a short period before everyone else was able to download it. DICE gave everyone else a slap in the face and let the One users have it exclusively for over a month. This announcement is only meaning that it is getting released for everyone else on 360, PS3, etc. Nothing new has been added, they are just finally giving everyone else the map pack.
On the picture on my ps4 it shows the su flanker wtf su 50 was the best why?
who cares? FIX THIS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wloxSgGprk
Great! I look forward to playing on those new maps!
Nice. Now we have 4 new maps on which to play your buggy, unbalanced game. How about you release the big game-changing patch you promised us in late January or early February that you promoted for the past month on your blog? Oh wait, I already know: 'cos you can't sell it and profit, can you?
The game is fine, I hardly see how it's unbalanced in the slightest. I played it for less than an hour on Xbox One before realizing that I needed premium, since then I've put in over 50 hours, as all the classes, using almost all the guns. (I have LMGs). The game is fantastic, with bugs happening so rarely that I really don't even care about them. What exactly is unbalanced? Play hardcore mode, it's a whole new ballgame than normal, which does feel like it takes too many rounds to put someone down.
What I do think is weird is that I've been playing on Second Assault for weeks…am I missing something? How is it going to release to premium in 4 days if I've already been playing it for awhile……meh.
It's been released earlier exclusively for Xbox One.
oh ok..thanx…thought I might have missed something…lol
It came out for Xbox one first ps4 and PC get it on the 18th not u because It came out for u
You should consider yourself very LUCKY because the game is really screwed up…I'm glad atleast its working for you. Any tips for the majority out here who is having major problems with this so called game…lol
This is the release for ps4, 3 and xbox 360
The dlc is already out for the one, it plainly said that it is releasing for ps3, ps4, xbox 360 and, pc.. My guess is that Microsoft paid to have a timed exclusive for the dlc like they do with call of duty.. But I could be wrong! :)
Sorry didn't realize someone has already commented about it, I don't like how the replies to comments are hidden under a tab.. <.< My bad..
Sounds like a COD player if u ask me. Guys clearly upset he's not use to playing a real game like BF4.
I've been waiting for this news for so long! Finally! I'm off all next week too so fantastic time to release it. Metro was always my favourite map from BF3, I used to love the 500% ticket servers and go all out for 2 hours in tightly fought matches. Can't wait to experience it on PS4 for 64 players, the jump on Operation Locker from PS3 to PS4 was insane so I expect Metro to be too. Loved Caspian Boarder too, and Firestorm was always great to be a bitch and sit at the top of the mountains for long range sniping. Buzzing news.
As for those still going on about the problems, I wasn't experiencing many until the most recent patch, suddenly I'm experiencing connection problems and lagging which I wasn't doing before hand, and crashing seems to have become an issue too. I'm not slating the game, I love this game and I certainly don't blame DICE, they provide a great product. Just suddenly the lag has crept in and the occasional connection loss too which was far more rare pre-patch.
Also seen people bitching about Premium and the expansions, "Oh give us a complete game and don't charge us extra for the rest of the game". Get a grip, it's an expansion pack, it's nothing new, the original Sims had expansions, remember The Sims Livin' it up, Pets and the likes? We're talking over a decade ago. The game is complete, you have the option to add new content to it. What BF4 adds compared to COD is worth far more than the extra £5 you pay for premium compared to COD. 4 DLC packs for COD compared to 5 for BF4, plus the new weapons, vehicles, assignments and the fact that all the maps in the DLC for COD can be fit into just one map in the BF4 DLC, far better value for money. Let's not forget the weekly content, battlepacks, etc too.
Just fix the problems that are still persistent and the game will be more incredible than it already is. Can't wait for the 18th, this is like a proper Valentines Day gift, ha.
dear battlefield…. remake old bf2 maps like. Kubra Dam, Dalian plant, Dragon walley and FuShe Pass. Plz……. it would be a greatest expansion pack ever. But im glad to hear i can play second assault after 4 days ;)
These were some of the greatest maps ever, in never understood why they were never remade..
This is absolutely awesome! It's about time!! Also, are we (console players) going to ever see our Veteran Battlepacks? I mean, PC got them Day 1, and we've been patiently waiting. It think it's about time your tech support stop giving the "We're working on the issue" excuse and you hand us what we deserve, the Veteran Battlepack. After all, it IS Fan Appreciation Month isn't it?? We'd APPRECIATE our Veteran Battlepacks. Okay? Okay… Now gimme!
Im just here, still wondering how Strike At Karkand didn't make it. Easily the best map in the whole Battlefield series!
I strongly agree!!! Strike at Karkand is far way better then Firestorm!!!
I absolutely love this game, but I really wish you guys would fix the graphics/sound problems we are having online. My gun takes too long to render and half the time I get a game with no sound. I'm somewhat disappointing I bought a console just to play this and it has these major problems. Thank you for creating yet another great game though :D Other than the problems I still love it.
Finally I've been waiting for so long thank you! Can't wait! Anyone else on 360 want to squad up hit me up Justin D T
I'm on 360! Dimmyxdodger- have a squad of 3 we play with! Woo we are excited!
FIX the game's core please and stop wasting our time. What you did was immoral in the first place. You took our money and you gave us a broken and unfinished product. You may fool the new gamers that this is the way a game should fell but the true veterans of the game feel cheated. We want a decent game. Nothing more nothing less. Please DICE do your job and provide us the product as it meant to be provided in the first place. Saw us some respect and treat us with dignity because what you are doing right now underestimates us as human beings.
Get over it. The only thing missing now is just the fine tuning.
You do realize that Dice was forced to release the game several months before they were ready by EA so they could compete with COD. So quit bitching at Dice and look at the publisher who screwed us over while Dice is scrambling to fix what they can with EA's permission.
LOOOOOOL… Who buys CoD these days? You cant be that dumb to pay for the same thing over and over again…
stop being such a fag, i want to see you build a whole fps game and release it without ONE single flaw. true it wasn't fully ready, but i'm sure i'm not the only one that enjoys it. there are literally still millions playing even with all the "problems" your bitching about.
If you are a veteran as I am in the BF series then you know it's not DICE's fault. EA sets the timetables and makes special requests because they see BF as their competing product for COD. DICE does everything right and to the best of their abilities but do to EA's short sighted viewpoint of profit over everything all EA games end up releasing flawed out of their mind. Yes we veteran gamers are not happy about it. We were brought up on working releases. That's why I play more Indy and Crowd-funded games now. There are only three mainstream game series I still play that have ongoing releases. Assassin's Creed, GTA, and BF. EA and other big publishers are pushing money over quality. Not that I like it but I expect any big name game to be released with flaws these days. It's just the way the publishers work. Put out a broken game so the can get the money and hope they get the edge over their rivals and then release patches like crazy forever. So double thumbs up to DICE and double birds to EA.
So first it's claimed that DLC will be put off until the game is fixed. Yet patches still introduce more (or older, previously fixed) bugs than they repair, and you still haven't addressed or even "been transparent" on what's being done regarding the tick rate, hit detection, etc.
But at least we get those battlepacks. REALLY feel appreciated.
They never said the game would be perfect–they fixed the biggest issues and DICE always tweaks certain things or another with patches. If theres new patches–let DICE know, dont whine like a snarky child. Theres tons of other games for you to play if you refuse to accept what they are offering.
What are you talking about ? They sold us a broken product and we must accept it? This is immoral imho. When you buy a NEW car , they sell it to you in pieces? Get back to your senses dude. They trained you to accept unfinished products and that's fine but don't tell to the community , to all the average players out there not to raise their voice against a broken game. We paid money and we want some dignity in exchange and not that useless appreciation month. What is wrong with today's common sense?
EPIC. Loving Second Assault on Xbox One, and I absolutely can't wait to play it on PC.
Geez…..some people can only complain about what they've bought. Not impressed? Too bad, you must not have gotten the PC version, cause I've had noooooooooo problems. Besides, the consoles (even the new ones) have never been particularly strong in the hardware and software capabilities when compared to PC. Battlefield 4 is a PC game ported to consoles, and it's not impressive on them.
lokk at this an you wil see why there is hate http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8C0COfAHHf0
I have 0 complaints on the 360- lovin every bit of it!
As stated, the zero health thing is a glitch, the enemy has the correct health on their end based on the hits you put in them. The game is completely playable at this point. Stats obviously show what a player is capable of and either your internet connection is not sufficient, or your just getting pissed off because your getting wrecked. Complaining and cussing on here isn't going to do anything except make people laugh :)
Laughter is a good thing… :]
Can't wait!! Just give shortcut packs and I'll be happy, or just remove the battlepack silencer for the pecheng so sad needing a random pack to get my silencer
Exactly what about that shit game do you miss? I can't believe you find it better than BF4.
Thank you, DICE. (:
Im sure its the game that is bad.
*Apply cold water to burned area*
HaHa…now that's funny…thanks
Stats don't mean shit when your being killed by players with ZERO health and not getting ANY hit recognition from your weapons…so fuck of with your stats ploy moron…a game has to be consistent before STATS can hold any water.
the zero health is just a glitch it still has the right amount of health and damage. its just a number that confuses the easily confused
Thanks for clearing that up…fucktard…so E.A. is getting sued for no reason at all by multiple entities…moron…the game is BROKEN.
They're being sued for other reasons. Not because a game is "bad". You don't know much do you?
Knew it. It's the game. Must be. Why would it be you? Because you're really good. "Stats don't mean anything". God my sides.
You must work for them…lol…ass KISSER!
I don't. I work in medicine. It's kind of different from gaming. You know what Medicine is, right? Or should I explain that to you also?
Oh well good…so you can treat your own wounds…lol
and so do I…lol
If you really are in the medical field, you're a disgrace. Getting worked up over something that you obviously don't comprehend.
and you do NURSE!…lol
In medical school at UCI. Currently an EMT. What was that whole nurse thing?
Like I am the ONLY one complaining…nope…its THOUSANDS with the same problem…go get yourself a band-aid…lol…and shut up!
No you're not the only one. You're just the only one being an ignorant puke about it. Have some class and act your age. You sound like a 12 year old kid playing CoD.
Your no longer worth the energy it takes to push the keys…Im a former military doctor…your a fucking pre-med douche bag.
And? You better act like a doctor rather than a fucking child. Normally, I'd have some respect, but you don't deserve it. Acting like a child and being proud of it, you should be ashamed. Pathetic.
you have over 400 plus hours in the game.
BF3 launched with just as many bugs and glitches, and the game could crash after map switch almost half a year after.
No one stole from you. You bought the game, knowing full well how the previous games had fared, and with the internet to research developers and company.
And no, you wouldn't "bitch slap all" you would most likely yell, then hide and act as if it wasn't you the second they looked your way.
You don't know me so fuck off to you too…bitch!
I will save a BITCH slap for you TOO!… :]
Also, if you have kids, do you beat them a lot? Along with your wife?
No…just crooks!
They've done a great job with fixing the game. Although its always worked for me despite some issues. I cant wait for second assault even though the maps being brought back are all the ones I wished they didnt. Especially metro. But I want the F2000 and "the pig". Seriously cant wait for naval strike the attack boats are my best vehicle since the tanks arent the same anymore. The tanks were better in bf3 but honestly bf4 is the best battlefield game ive played so far. Well in terms of infantry based combat.
They used Frostbite 3.. they only used some of the engine however.
How can you go from a really good game like BF3 to this SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!! You fucking pricks make me sick…you should pray I never meet you fucks…because I will seriously have to BITCH SLAP YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for stealing from all of us out here that USED to love this game!!!!!!!
It takes 4-5 years to make Battlefield run the way we really want it. The gaming community whines when its not a complete game after 2 years. Hence all the updates. Maybe if everyone becomes patient we may have a solid game. Its not Dice or RAs fault its the gaming community whining. I can settle for a solid Battlefield game and released many maps that get better and improved DLC for several years until the next Battlefield comes out.
Then take 5 years to complete it before selling an unfinished product. Patches and Updates should be a LAST resort!
This is one of the dumbest replies I have ever read in my life. Yes, it's the gamers fault that DICE asked for more time to make BF4 & EA said no & released a product they knew was broken to beat Call of Duty to market in street date in the name of greed. Their own shareholders were suing them. Do you know ANYTHING about the video game industry? It's EA's fault (voted Worst Company In America last year) for pushing something on BF fans that they knew was only 2/3′rds done, asking DICE to put these games out so fast not caring about quality – EA that is, offering Premium before the game even come out to rip off consumers even more, now EA is making two military or BF spin-offs from Visceral Games & Criterion to try to make BF a yearly series. All they care about is money. "We'll try & fix it six months after it's out, if we even can fix it at all…" EA's new philosophy. Also, blame DICE for never having the balls to stand up to it's publisher, they didn't have a backbone. Don't blame the gamers, that's a joke. I'd gladly wait 3-6 more months for a finished product that was quality over greed. EA didn't put it out early because "we whine for titles faster," they put it out because they only care about their bottom line & not quality.
You are very CORRECT… thank you sir!
from this post it is showing me that you started playing BF3 neer the end of its life as a game because if you had started from the beginning you would know that it had almost as many issues besides the crashing (crashing still happened just nowhere near as much) give it time if you have to put the game somewhere you cant see it come back to it in a few months and it should be much better trust me BF4 WILL get better much much better blame ea not dice
I played BF3 from its release date…and it didn't have NEAR the problems this SHITTY game has or whatever you want to call it, because its not a game…its a joke. I would have GLADLY waited for however long it would have taken for them to release a WORKING GAME as I am sure everyone else out there would agree. They just wanted to try and keep up with COD which is really no competition to Battlefield…well until now it is…COD is a FAR better game in the sense that it is playable!!!!
How dense are you? It's playable, more than just playable actually. You're just a dense motherfucker.
Haha…really FAGGOT…FUCK OFF! Your the FUCKING ASS KISSER obviously…you must work for these fucks!…lol THE GAME IS BROKEN…hence why ALL of the COMPLAINTS from people all over the world you fucking idiot!?
No, I don't work for them. You're just blinded by your idiocy. You're salty over getting fucked up in the game. Like most gamers, you won't admit you had a bad game or that you are bad. So it must be the game and bugs. I'm the pathetic one, huh?
its still a good game dude , just chill no need to roid rage through your keyboard. butt hurt baby
Wow some people open there mouths without a clue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
O.K…I have had this map pack for weeks already…and its FUCKED UP like the rest of this SHITTY game…oh wait, BF4 isn't a game…you can PLAY a GAME…FUCK YOU E.A.!!!!!!!!!! You have definitely lost a customer here…you fucking thieves! FIX THE FUCKING GAME YOU ASS MAGGOT MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!
Are you insane? I think you need help before you hurt someone. Wish I could perscribe you Prozac. You nut-job.
Why are you saying this? You've PLAYED over 460 hours (which is fucking ridiculous btw) how can you play a "shitty" game for so long? If this game was so "shitty" then why have you spent so much time with it in the first place. You're an idiot that's terrible at the game.
so what i do not understand? you say these maps are from battlefield 3 Reimagined with Frostbite 3 graphics??? so are you admitting that you lied about battlefield 3 using frostbite 3? to me this makes no seance! as these maps were originally made with frostbite 3, that is according to EA and DICE? am i seanceing scandal here????
They where made with Frostbite 3
right bet in this post it says that they are reimagined with frostbite 3 as if they were not before? this is what is confusing me
You went full retard.. bf3 was made with frostbite 2 engine..
careful what you say there duchbag i have mental challenged family and i highly do not appreciate that comment and am in the posses of reporting it
Uh oh :P I'm scared, but go ahead, report me <3
Battlefield 3 used Frostbite 2, Stop hatin bro
and you are right im sorry for wasting everyones time had to go back and check idk why i thought it was made with 3 had a moment there lol
-_- battlefield 3 used frostbite 2. Do your research before you rant
No. Just no. Battlefield 3 was running with the Frostbite 2 engine, Not 3.
Dude Remained means they took everything from Battlefield 3 (Frostbite 2) and remade everything. Many of companies have done this. Its not a scam. Man its common sense.
Check "frostbite" in wikipedia,and read the "versions" part. Great way to avoid making an ass of yourself publicly on the forums, and to avoid high blood pressure.
You should probably learn how to spell before you start saying crap you are wrong about to begin with.
They only used a certain percent of Frostbite 3 with BF3. Now they are using more of the the engine.
BattleField 3 was made with Frostbite 2 idiot. Go to this link and scroll down to the bottom.
Dude Battlefield 3 was made with Frostbite 2, NOT 3. FB 3 was develloped fr BF4
Give us new maps, don't make us pay for old crap. This is why you shouldn't buy things before you know what they are, I guess. How about giving us a map editor instead? Make it Premium only so you don't lose sales, I don't care.
Fix the goddamn game before launching a expansion pack!!!!
Game works fine ..
buy a ps4 and you will be fine thats what i did and it works great
Back on track
Bring back Atacama and Arica Harbor instead.
Finally!!! I've been waiting soooo long
I want my MG36 back!!!!
Great! new maps to crash on!
I have not crashed since the beginning of November, so shut the f up with this negativity and make sure everything is updated and ok on your computer first
ACTIVE PROTECTION should be nurfed!
"Carrier Assault game mode which is a re-imagining of the classic Battlefield 2142 Titan Mode" awesome!
Is that an F18? And im assuming we will be able to control these destroyers, like in 1942? That'd be BEAST
I have been playing these maps since December on Xbox One!? Is this just for other systems?
Xbone got exclusive for the first couple of months….it's now finally going to be release on PC and PS4
Nice one dice nothing like the best bf3 maps coming to next gen AWESOME!!
Cant wait to see what Operation Mortar is
Go PACKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
sooooo….. even more money for maps that were on previous games wow easy cash for devs
ACTIVE PROTECTION should be nurfed.
Wonderful. We've yet to be given the game balance changes you promised in late January/early February (which you've been promoting like mad for the last month on the blog), but by God you're keeping the DLC money cow well-fed.
it'll probably drop at the same time that Second Assault drops for Premium users. They have a tendency to do that when it comes to balance patches and DLC.
Much Love Dice/EA cant wait for the sandstorm goodness
Oh, boo-hoo. You paid for the DLC not a guaranteed release date.
In this expansion, you'll experience intense water-based combat as the Chinese armada takes the fight to the sea. You'll have access to new weapons, gadgets, and amphibious vehicles, and four all-new maps – Lost Island, Nansha Strike, Wave Breaker, and Operation Mortar.
Wooow DICE, That looks interesting ! Cant wait for this DLC. Just do not add sea-mines, but Sea superiority would be nice :D Im expecting that :D Thanks DICE !
No Point in releasing this on PS3 since the game's not working anyway.
10Hz server update rate of Battlefield 4 is unacceptable.
EA failed again. keep promising to fix but BREAKING it all the time.
This release will be a fail just like CR is still broken.
The 10Hz server update rate of Battlefield 4 is unacceptable for a First Person Shooter….
It's the reason why you "die instantly", it's the reason why you have No Time to react to getting shot, It's the reason why there is a black screen for 1 second everytime you spawn and it's also the reason why vehicles clusterfuck/Roadjam when touching eachother…
It needs to be increased to 60hz!, Or ATLEAST 30hz!
The major problem is that these "next gen" consoles can't freaking keep up with a netsend rate of >30hz
I'd call that a failure of the console desingers/devs, because seriously, consoles are the reason why we have such a shitlow rate
If you can't raise the netsend rate on consoles, could you atleast do it for PC Gamers?
We have BEASTLY systems that can run almost anything you toss at us, and we can always upgrade the slow component.
Why are PC's being Capped at the speed of a Console, A console is a cutdown barebone locked OS PC!!!
A "netsend rate" of 10hz is unacceptable for modern games, Letalone "Next generation games" which is what BF4 should be.
Did DICE not say that "we are halting all DLC progress untill we have fixed the game"?
Why Is china rising stripped of it's Levloution? That's pretty broken
in a nutshell mate, unfortunately it will fall on deaf ears
It comes out on my birthday! Thanks DICE!
Any chance you guys can add a "Premium" conquest playlist so that we can play in official servers that have all the maps in a rotation. Would be nice not have to manually jump in and out of servers if I want to play maps from different expansion packs.
yes <3
Tanks and choppers should carry the same amount of armament as their real life counter parts also tanks should not be that easy to kill unless it's a direct hit to the rear and treads should get damaged if hit by an rpg or similar. Rotary wing vehicles should have the same amount of armament and flares as their real world counter parts. By the way thanks for an awesome game I'm vet and i just wanted send a salute to you guys for a job well done.
That just wouldnt work for balancing. This is coming from a fellow vet.
Finaly… :D
Thanks for fixing the game! Also, thanks for bringing back Titan Mode with Naval Strike! ;)

The main considerations for optimizing queries are:
To make a slow
SELECT ... WHERE query
faster, the first thing to check is whether you can add an
index. Set up indexes on
columns used in the
WHERE clause, to
speed up evaluation, filtering, and the final retrieval of
results. To avoid wasted disk space, construct a small set
of indexes that speed up many related queries used in your
Indexes are especially important for queries that
reference different tables, using features such as
joins and
foreign keys. You
can use the
statement to determine which indexes are used for a
SELECT. See
Section 8.3.1, "How MySQL Uses Indexes" and
Section 8.8.1, "Optimizing Queries with EXPLAIN".
Isolate and tune any part of the query, such as a function call, that takes excessive time. Depending on how the query is structured, a function could be called once for every row in the result set, or even once for every row in the table, greatly magnifying any inefficiency.
Minimize the number of full table scans in your queries, particularly for big tables.
Keep table statistics up to date by using the
ANALYZE TABLE statement
periodically, so the optimizer has the information needed
to construct an efficient execution plan.
Learn the tuning techniques, indexing techniques, and
configuration parameters that are specific to the storage
engine for each table. Both
InnoDB and
MyISAM have sets of guidelines for
enabling and sustaining high performance in queries. For
details, see Section 8.5.6, "Optimizing InnoDB Queries"
and Section 8.6.1, "Optimizing MyISAM Queries".
In particular, in MySQL 5.6.4 and higher, you can optimize
single-query transactions for
tables, using the technique in
Section 8.5.3, "Optimizing InnoDB Read-Only Transactions".
Avoid transforming the query in ways that make it hard to understand, especially if the optimizer does some of the same transformations automatically.
If a performance issue is not easily solved by one of the
basic guidelines, investigate the internal details of the
specific query by reading the
EXPLAIN plan and adjusting
your indexes,
WHERE clauses, join
clauses, and so on. (When you reach a certain level of
expertise, reading the
EXPLAIN plan might be your
first step for every query.)
Adjust the size and properties of the memory areas that
MySQL uses for caching. With efficient use of the
buffer pool,
MyISAM key cache, and the MySQL query
cache, repeated queries run faster because the results are
retrieved from memory the second and subsequent times.
Even for a query that runs fast using the cache memory areas, you might still optimize further so that they require less cache memory, making your application more scalable. Scalability means that your application can handle more simultaneous users, larger requests, and so on without experiencing a big drop in performance.
Deal with locking issues, where the speed of your query might be affected by other sessions accessing the tables at the same time.

|[Delete] [Edit]
If you need to fetch a small number of rows from a table with 10s of millions of rows, LIMIT offset, n_rows will become increasingly slow as offset increases.
A way around this is to have a unique index that numbers the rows, and base your offset on that index. Example:
SELECT * FROM very_long_table WHERE id > 20000000 LIMIT 20;
is MUCH faster than
SELECT * FROM very_long_table LIMIT 20000000, 20;
|Posted by Stanciu Ionut on February 6 2007 1:02pm
|[Delete] [Edit]
SELECT * FROM very_long_table WHERE id > 20000000 LIMIT 20;
is MUCH faster than
SELECT * FROM very_long_table LIMIT 20000000, 20;
But it`s not the same thing ...
|Posted by Biswajit Maji on September 24 2013 9:23pm
|[Delete] [Edit]
these two are not same because it may not have all row entries from 1 to 20000000
|Posted by Awlad Hossain on October 30 2013 10:21am
|[Delete] [Edit]
1. SELECT * FROM very_long_table WHERE id > 20000000 LIMIT 20;
2. SELECT * FROM very_long_table LIMIT 20000000, 20;
Indeed the #1 is faster, the #2 is fetching the record for 20000000 + 20 lines from which last 20 records will be shown. And there's a chance that no record will be shown if the case is some records were deleted from the table.
|Posted by Vijay Kumar Sati on March 3 2015 2:08pm
|[Delete] [Edit]
1. SELECT * FROM very_long_table WHERE id > 20000000 LIMIT 20;
2. SELECT * FROM very_long_table LIMIT 20000000, 20;
Both queries are different and have different outcomes.
1st Query: Will fetch all rows where id > 20000000 and then limit display of records to 20.
2nd Query: Will select all the records from very_long_table(maybe unordered way) and then from the fetched records show the 20 records after the 20000000th record. So it may fetch a record with id = 10000 too as records are unordered.
Solution: "Use ORDER BY id" in both queries to have the same result.
Note: Also for this case we've to assume that column id is primary key and must has values in range [0 - infinite] and no record is deleted from the table(Such a rare case).
So both queries can't be used for same purpose in a generalized manner.

BANGOR, Maine (NEWS CENTER) ---Kids at Eastern Maine Medical Center's pediatric ward got a special visitor on Friday. Ronald Mcdonald brought cheer and smiles with him to some kids battling some pretty serious illnesses.
That includes 2 and a half year old Camden Bryant of Eddington. He is fighting a brave battle against luekemia and for his mother Sheri, this visit was just what the doctor ordered.
"To see someone share such joy with Camden its very exciting," she said, "for him I think it's a little bit larger than life."
Ronald Mcdonald will also be visiting the High School Senior All Star Basketball Games on Saturday at Husson University. Proceeds will go to the Ronald Mcdonald House in Bangor, which provides a place for families to stay while their kids are getting treatement at the area hospitals.

I dread writing this, but it needs to be done. This is primarily to the military veterans in the county.
About a month or so ago there was an article about a group of men having coffee in a local restaurant. They were approached by two young children and after a short talk, the children asked for the men's autographs. I was one of those men. The only time that we gather as a group to have coffee is when we come after honoring a deceased military veteran at his/her funeral.
We are losing about 1,500 veterans a day nationwide. Unfortunately, we have lost some of those veterans here. It takes a 15 man squad to make up an Honor Guard. If you are a member of a veteran's association or are interested in joining a group, look under Veterans Affairs in you local newspaper and come join us.
We need your help in saluting these passing veterans. Please come and join us. We will train you in the ceremony.

Comments about Horny Toad Marley Tee (Women's):
I like this tee shirt a lot and have it in a few colors. Its neckline is simple but feminine, and its not too tight, so forgiving while flattering at the same time. I like the heathering in the color too - makes the shirt unique. The only issue I have is when it comes out of the wash it is usually pretty wrinkled. After wearing a bit, the wrinkles come out. Overall, this is my favorite day-to-day summer tee shirt, which says a lot because I live in them in the summer time.

Michelob neon sign?
Just picked this up (see pic) and I am wondering if this is vintage or not?
Secondly, one of the listings I found for this although it did not tell me that it was vintage or not did mention that is was a faux sign. What does faux mean when it comes to neon?

If it's not really neon you should be able to tell from the photos. Perhaps they meant that it was made as a collectible and is not a real advertising piece.

Hi, this is a neo neon....an enclosed box with a light inside shining through
a colored opening that could be glass or plastic. Late 90's - current.

"We as Catholics have not properly combated (the culture) because we have not been taught our Catholic Faith, especially in the depth needed to address these grave evils of our time. This is a failure of catechesis both of children and young people that has been going on for fifty years. It is being addressed, but it needs much more radical attention... What has also contributed greatly to the situation is an exaltation of the virtue of tolerance which is falsely seen as the virtue which governs all other virtues. In other words, we should tolerate other people in their immoral actions to the extent that we seem also to accept the moral wrong. Tolerance is a virtue, but it is certainly not the principal virtue; the principal virtue is charity... Charity means speaking the truth. I have encountered it (not speaking the truth) many times myself as a priest and bishop. It is something we simply need to address. There is far too much silence — people do not want to talk about it because the topic is not 'politically correct.' But we cannot be silent any longer."

"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."
- St. John Paul II
