Wakkaservers.com - Walker expressed a straight up offer of 6 servers to donate to our latest release of GoldenEye: Source. Big thanks to the guys at Wakka. Looks like they will be our Official U.S server provider for December if not beyond, and the community should see some great configurations and conditions directly from the team. We hope to show you the full range of GE:S fun, with each server to be vastly tailored over the weekend period.
These 6 servers will run a variety of modes and combination's to show off what the mod can do. Server hosts will no doubt be interested to check out what we do, and we'll be certain to make some posts in the coming days and weeks giving hints to how we setup our officials, and get the most out of the mod.
Thanks to all of those who contacted us regarding the server pre-load. Members of our support staff, such as our Beta Testers, are now actively seeking to spread the server package to various servers that are currently running Beta 4. If you don't see some of your favorite servers in the next couple of days, they might be upgrading to v4.1!

I'm getting in the game RIGHT NOW!
Nice, I think I'll join you. ;) I call LTK pistols
Same here ill join just gotta wait for it to download
Downloading. :)
Congrats on the release!
Man that server file sent some people for a loop.
But it was excellent to see it so well received
Its a shame WNx and the other clans are a bunch of whiny 10 year old faggots who dont play the game with the real settings and make it a ******* projectile fest,
You could be less childish yourself calling people names?
If you don't want it a certain way figure out how you think it should be and head to our forums and make a respectfully presented opinion of server settings.
I say this because the team has 8 official servers at their disposal and we want to know how non-clan players want our game to be so we can have those servers fill a need that may be lacking from other hosts!
i played the version v.4.1 a few hours and i have too say, you did great work.
You also updated little details like the size of the bulletcasing and their design, thats really nice.
For example the PPK bulletcasing size was a bit small in beta 4.0, but now it fits the right size. This is really nice done.
Also the Character Models are updated and looking nice(like they also did before).
And the new Casino map, woow, this is full of detail and looks so awesome :-)
Also the new details added to the old maps, this is so nice.
At last i have to say, thank you for this great and awesome Mod GES-Devs.
sp please
SP indeed, i love sp gaming and mp mode is simply just not my thing. i know that most players are fully in to mp gaming but please think of us sp gamers, there are still loads of them around, (not to forget those who don't have internet, for just miss connection for some reason for a day or so).
that said, i just tried this mod and i love how it looks, although i didn't like the colors of the blood, (maybe this can be set to red in the settings, i haven't looked yet to be honest). now it had all the colors of the rainbow, what looked really odd. and before i realised this i thought i just missed the file of blood and therefore it did show all those odd colors.
one big remark, i noticed something very strange that wasn't great at all. and that is that the time between someone fires and when you get hit is to big. meaning, when someone shot at me, and i went in to cover behind something i noticed that i still did get hit each time when i was already in cover, behind a wall or something else. this made that i did get killed several times, what was really very frustrating!
other then that, great job guys!!
"one big remark, i noticed something very strange that wasn't great at all. and that is that the time between someone fires and when you get hit is to big."
It's called lag and it's the bane of multiplayer gaming when there's an unfortunate abundance of low speed connections or faraway/overloaded servers.
There's not much they can do about it, you can though, make sure to play on servers with the least amount of ping for the least problems with lag :)
all 4 download links don't work for me, they don't download at all. i have internet and other downloads work too :(
Ohh I remember playing this some years ago!! But I thought It was dead a while back good thing to see that I was wrong!! :D Can't wait to try It out. Thanks for the release It will probably bring back some memories from the good old days of Goldeneye on the N64.
Desura release please? :)
Sorry. DesuraNET are not allowed to include us in their Desura platform. This is for legal reasons to do with copyright which are out of our and their hands to resolve.
This is also why we don't get offers for 'steamworks'
Whilst its a shame and it deserves steamworks and desuranet.
Its a massive fail on your half.
Name it Goldentroll: Rebirth or something.
thats like the 4th mod I downloaded hoping for a good STORY MODE!!! BUT NO! ALL IT HAS IS A ******* MULIPLAYER MODE ONLY!!! YOU CAN ENCLUDE IT BUT FOR GODS SAKE INCLUDE A STORY MODE!!! IF I WANTED TO PLAY GAMES ONLINE I'D USE TF2!!!!!!
I have the right to be angry with this mod so shut the hell up...
Please calm down. "style" lists very clearly that we are multiplayer mod. This is because for now we are doing MP. Once all our MP goals are complete we can work on the SP everyone loves. We want a good community with a good MP if we are to devote more years to SP.
Fair enough...
I didn't know there was a style tab... I can't find it... what are you talking about?
I still think that the fact that this is a MP only should be in the discription and not on some tab that I couldn't even find...
It's not hidden by any stretch of the word! On the right hand side of the main mod page you'll see Profile, then Community Rating, then Style. In Style box it CLEARLY states "Players: Multiplayer"
Every mod has this style box, so when will you learn to read and observe before making obnoxious posts?
Uhh cool your jets dude. They are doing multiplayer before they even think of singleplayer. You don't have to rage about this excellent piece of art just because there is no singleplayer.
This is great. 4.1 brings so many improvements to the table. Loving this game
Can we have tank now?
You can haz tank nao
This was pretty well done. The Casino Royale map was excellent. Gameplay is still awesome as always. Silo is epic. Thanks for releasing team and keep up the good work!
Keep up the playing! You guys are doing so awesome. The new players today are appreciated. We hope the fun continues, our existing thousands of players arent going anywhere and our servers are getting a good workout! :) rock on
You're on Tom's Hardware, congrats!

James Loney won't face DUI charges
By C. Trent Rosecrans
Dodgers first baseman James Loney won't be charged for an incident in November in which he was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after he sideswiped several cars on the 101 Freeway, the Los Angeles Times reports.
At the time, Loney pled his innocence, even though a police report suspected he was under the unfluence. Drug tests came back negative and the city attorney's office announced there was insignificant evident.
Loney, 27, hit .288/.339/.416 for the Dodgers last season and will be a free agent after the 2012 season.
For some reason, each report notes that he was driving a Maserati, as if it's a surprise that young guy in Los Angeles who made nearly $5 million last season drives a nice car. I'd be much more interested in the make of the car if it were a Kia or something.

HomegrownTeam: Los Angeles Dodgers
By Matt Snyder
What if players were only permitted to stay with the team that originally made them a professional? No trades, no Rule-5 Draft, no minor or major league free agency ... once you are a professional baseball player, you stay in that organization. This series shows how all 30 teams would look. We give you: Homegrown teams. To view the schedule/past entries of this feature, click here.
Do the Dodgers do well in drafts and international signings? The answer is a resounding yes. What they do with those players could certainly be questioned, but as far as building a foundation, few have been better in recent years. See below.
1. Dee Gordon, SS
2. Shane Victorino, RF
3. Matt Kemp, LF
4. Paul Konerko, 1B
5. Adrian Beltre, 3B
6. Carlos Santana, C
7. Franklin Gutierrez, CF
8. Miguel Cairo, 2B
Starting Rotation
1. Clayton Kershaw
2. Edwin Jackson
3. Ted Lilly
4. Hiroki Kuroda
5. Chad Billingsley
If you don't like us using Kuroda -- some commenters have disagreed with including guys who were professional players in Japan in this series -- you can slide in James McDonald or the youngster Rubby De La Rosa.
Closer - Joakim Soria
Set up - Javy Guerra, Joel Hanrahan, Kenley Jansen, Takashi Saito, Jonathan Broxton, Pedro Feliciano, Cory Wade
Long - McDonald
Notable Bench Players
Russell Martin, Henry Blanco, James Loney, Blake DeWitt, Trayvon Robinson, Jerry Sands, Alex Cora
What's Good?
Spoiler Alert: This section is going to be much longer than "what's not." How about starting with the offensive firepower Victorino, Kemp, Konerko, Beltre and Santana bring in the 2-6 spots of the order? That is sick. Gordon has good potential and Gutierrez was a decent hitter before his stomach issues derailed him a few years ago. The starting rotation is good, deep, has a good lefty-righty mix and a true ace sitting at the top. The bullpen is so deep it's unimaginable. It's not as great as the Yankees' bullpen (Clippard-Robertson-Axford-Rivera) in this exercise, but this is definitely an elite unit. The bench is pretty damn good, too. Best of all, though, how about the defensive range? Gutierrez was widely considered the best center fielder in baseball before his stomach woes. Victorino is a three-time Gold Glover while he lost out to Kemp this season. I decided to shift Kemp to left because Victorino has a cannon that is an asset in right. Not that Kemp can't throw. This would be one insane defensive outfield. Beltre is the best defensive third baseman in baseball, too. That's a lot of help for an already-good pitching staff.
What's Not?
Anything would be a nitpick. Maybe that Dee Gordon might not yet be ready to lead off for this team? If that was the case, you could move up Victorino and then the bottom of the order becomes a bit weak. But, again, that's a nitpick.
Comparison to real 2011
I kind of chuckled during all the MVP arguments when people would say that Kemp played for a team that "sucks." The Dodgers finished 82-79. Yes, they were out of contention for pretty much all of the season, but they finished above .500, so they definitely don't suck. Of course, those real-life Dodgers couldn't hold a candle to this group. This is a World Series-caliber club, but the funny thing is, did you see Arizona's team? The D-Backs lineup is much better, but the Dodgers have the better defense and pitching. We'd have a nice battle for the NL West title and maybe even see a rematch in the NLCS. If only ...

Report: Dodgers' Loney arrested in November
By C. Trent Rosecrans
Dodgers first baseman James Loney was reportedly arrested and hospitalized last month after crashing his Maserati into three other cars, according to TMZ.com.
Citing a police report, the TMZ.com report states Loney swerved into one car and then hit two more around 6 p.m. on Nov. 14. Although it says police suspected he was under the influence of drugs, a blood sample came back negative for drugs and alcohol.
The report said Loney was "restless, unsteady, aggressive and irritable." After being handcuffed and taken to a hospital, the report alleges Loney bit off the mouthpiece of a brethalyzer and spit it back at a police officer.
Although Loney was never formally booked, the case is now being handled by the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office.For more baseball news, rumors and analysis, follow @eyeonbaseball on Twitter or subscribe to the RSS feed.

Monday trade sets stage for busy Hot Stove season
By Matt Snyder
Sure, Derek Lowe was dealt to the Indians in a salary dump and we've seen a few signings, but things have been pretty slow of late in Major League Baseball news. When the biggest name to sign a contract with a new team thus far is a backup first baseman/pinch-hitter (Jim Thome), it says everything you need to know about this past week in actual transactions. So forgive us for loving Melky Cabrera and Jonathan Sanchez swapping addresses. It's something, and it serves as a nice little unofficial start to the Hot Stove season.
With just one week to the general manager meetings in Milwaukee, it's time to focus on other potential trade candidates. Obviously rumors don't always come to fruition and we're shocked with non-rumored trades going down on occasion, but here are some names that either make sense or have been rumored to be on the move in the recent past.
• The White Sox's farm system is in absolute shambles and the major-league club doesn't appear ready to compete with the Tigers any time soon, so it's possible general manager Kenny Williams decides to rebuild. Since Adam Dunn and Alex Rios have no trade value, Gavin Floyd, John Danks and Carlos Quentin would be the parts most likely to move.
• Orioles starter Jeremy Guthrie is a free agent after the 2012 season and he could be a helpful four or five starter for a contender. He's thrown at least 190 innings in each of the past four seasons.
• Rays center fielder B.J. Upton has long been rumored to be a trade candidate, and this winter it might finally happen with Desmond Jennings clearly ready to take over in center. Also, if the Rays are ready to deal a starting pitcher, Jeff Niemann is most likely.
• Denard Span was rumored to be a trade candidate back in July, and the Twins could part with their center fielder to shore up the pitching staff.
• We've already heard the rumors about Jair Jurrjens and Martin Prado from Atlanta, but it's possible since talks fizzled with the Royals that the Braves just hold both.
• Do the Angels try to shed Alberto Callaspo and/or Maicer Izturis and then land free agent Aramis Ramirez at third? They probably would need to shed more payroll in order to do so.
• Starting pitchers Wandy Rodriguez and Brett Myers could easily be on the move from Houston, but the guess is the ownership situation would need to be resolved first.
• After a disappointing 2011 season, the Rockies have plenty of trade candidates. Chris Iannetta probably stays put, but Huston Street, Ian Stewart, Seth Smith and Ty Wigginton all make sense in potential deals.
• Dodgers first baseman James Loney finished 2011 with a bang, which might mean it's the Dodgers last chance to get something of value in return for him. There are a few small-market matches, too, including the Indians.
• Finally, as we've already noted, the A's have put basically the entire team on the block.
So fasten your seatbelts, the action has only just begun.

R.I.P.: 2011 Los Angeles Dodgers
By Matt Snyder
Another season gone, another disappointment for 29 teams as one is immortalized forever. Let's take a look back at 2011 and forward in Eye on Baseball's R.I.P. series...
Team name: Los Angeles Dodgers
Record: 82-79, third place in NL West, 11.5 games back
Manager: Don Mattingly
Best hitter: Matt Kemp -- .324/.399/.586, 39 HR, 126 RBI, 115 R, 40 SB
Best pitcher: Clayton Kershaw -- 21-5, 2.28 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, 248 K, 233 1/3 IP
The Dodgers were mediocre at best and pretty bad at times for most of the 2011 season, but all of a sudden, something seemed to click. After an August 21 loss, the Dodgers sat 57-69. The rest of the way, they went 25-10. Simply: For the last five weeks of the season, the Dodgers were one of the best teams in baseball. It's just that it was too late and not many noticed -- including Joe Buck, who said "a bad Dodgers team" during the ALCS telecast Saturday night.
On the field, this Dodgers season will be remembered for two reasons. More specifically, two players. Matt Kemp would have the NL MVP in the bag had his teammates played better all season. He may lose out to Ryan Braun, though, due to many voters believing the winner of the individual award has to come from a team that was in contention. Clayton Kershaw won the pitching triple crown (led the league in wins, ERA and strikeouts -- note: He tied Ian Kennedy in wins, but that still counts). He's the likely Cy Young Award winner in the NL.
Off the field, this Dodgers season has been completely and utterly marred by owner Frank McCourt. Unfortunately for the Dodgers, he's still the owner. At least as of this writing.
The franchise is not set up to be a slam-dunk contender, nor is it set up for futility in the near future. If the ownership situation would get settled very soon and the Dodgers could be a major player in free agency, they'd have a great shot at winning the NL West in 2012. It's just that we don't know how long the ownership situation will linger. Even if McCourt lost the team today, however, the approval process wouldn't be complete until it was too late to make several major plays at the likes of Prince Fielder, Jose Reyes and C.J. Wilson.
Rod Barajas, C
Jamey Carroll, 2B
Aaron Miles, 2B
Casey Blake, 3B (option declined)
Juan Rivera, OF
Jon Garland, SP (option declined)
Hiroki Kuroda, SP
Jonathan Broxton, RP
Mike MacDougal, RP
Vicente Padilla, RP
Unfortunately for the Dodgers, they can't act like a large-market team as long as the McCourt financial stuff continues. And that won't be resolved this offseason. Still, there is significant payroll coming off the books. The general direction of the franchise should be to try and compete with the younger players while letting the aging veterans walk, but a few exceptions can be made -- because it's very realistic that the Dodgers can compete in the NL West in 2012.

Dodgers benching Loney against left-handers
By Evan Brunell
The Dodgers appear resigned to benching James Loney against left-handers, according to MLB.com. Loney's promising play in 2006 and '07 have given way to dispiriting performances at first base. He has a .241/.292/.310 line so far in 2011, and the Dodgers are getting frustrated.
Loney's .173/.228/.192 line against left-handers bears out a pathetic .188 wOBA (Fangraphs' version of OPS, scaled to OBP) which is seventh-worst in all of baseball. Despite that futility, manager Don Mattingly isn't willing to bench Loney completely against left handers.
"I can't say it's a straight platoon, but we're trying to find more offense," Mattingly said. "James kind of hasn't thumped lefties and we've got to find extra runs here and there."On Wednesday against Cole Hamels, usual third-baseman Casey Blake shifted to first base with Juan Uribe manning third, freeing up second base for the hot Jamey Carroll. When Loney starts against lefties, Blake will likely return to third with Uribe and Carroll sharing time at second.
Loney's benching against lefties hides a bigger issue: his constant tinkering with his batting stance that could be harming his numbers as he hurtles his way toward a likely non-tender in the offseason. Already making $4.875 million on the year, Loney isn't worth that salary currently and won't be worth the raise he would be sure to get in his final year of arbitration unless he can find a way to get going offensively. That won't happen as long as Loney won't allow himself to settle into a stance.
"He's rolling and the next day it's like, Uncle Harry got to him overnight and he's got a different stance," said Mattingly. "Sometimes it changes from at-bat to at-bat. To be consistent, you stay with your base. But if it's not working, you can't expect to change [results] without changes."
Mattingly added that sometimes Loney's explanations for changing his batting stance don't make sense, but Loney comes from a good place in his reasoning.
"I'm sure he's trying to be better than he's been," Mattingly said. "You always try to get better. Sometimes you're an inch away and you make a foot-long change. That's what scares you. I'm talking from experience."
So when will Loney go back to starting full-time against lefties?
"I hate to say what I'm going to do when I don't really know," Mattingly said. "There's nothing wrong with a little competition. We've got to find a way to put up more runs. I think James is a confident kid and it's not a matter of me not believing in him. But there's never anything wrong with competition. You've got to continue proving yourself. There's always somebody coming. Put up the numbers. You've got to perform. There really are no free rides. You know it's there with James, you've seen it. But it's not about yesterday, it's about today."

Pepper: Greinke's new home, Phillies, more
By Matt Snyder
ADJUSTMENT PERIOD OVER: Carl Crawford just needed a little patience. After a catastrophic beginning to his career in Boston, the speedy left fielder is swinging a hot bat in May. For the month, he's hitting .387 with two doubles and a triple. He's been hitting eighth in the batting order and manager Terry Francona had said that the Red Sox big offseason signing would move back up toward the top of the order when he started hitting. So does the current run suffice? Not quite yet.
"If you move one guy, somebody else goes, too," Francona said (Boston Herald ). "I think there will be a time when it seems to me that it works for everybody that I would like to do that. He's swinging the bat better, which is good. But it also has to work with everybody else, too."
The Red Sox currently have Jacoby Ellsbury, Dustin Pedroia, Adrian Gonzalez and Kevin Youkilis in the 1-2-3 spots. There really doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that set up, so Francona has a point. Or maybe insert Crawford at the two-hole and knock everyone back a slot? There's probably no wrong answer.
BEEN THERE, DONE THAT: Alexi Ogando is suffering through a blister on his pitching hand (the index finger), which was the reason he missed Sunday's scheduled start. Fortunately he pitches for the Rangers, because team president Nolan Ryan dealt with the same issue back when he was a youngster for the Mets. Ryan's been helping Ogando use some remedies that helped him, such as shaving the blister so it dries out and rubbing pickle juice on it. While we're here, just to stave off the crowd of athlete-haters, a blister isn't a pain issue for pitchers. It's a matter of affecting command. (Star-Telegram.com )
FIVES ARE WILD: Apropos of absolutely nothing at all, every single American League game Sunday ended with one team having scored five runs. It was the first time a league had every game with one team scoring the same run total since August 10, 1993 when it happened in the NL. It doesn't mean anything, obviously, but it's a quasi-interesting little anomaly. (Hardball Talk )
FIRST IMPRESSION: Phenom Julio Teheran debuted Saturday for the Braves against the Phillies -- in Philadelphia, no less, which isn't exactly an easy place for opposing pitchers -- He only made it through 4 2/3 innings, giving up four hits, three earned runs and two walks while only striking out one. Still, it wasn't an awful debut. The kid is 20. Braves' skipper Fredi Gonzalez made sure to let Teheran he was pleased with the effort. "I wanted to make sure he told him that he did good and that he was impressive and that we liked the way he handled himself," Gonzalez said. "We told him that last night. But we wanted to make sure they told him again." (MLB.com )
LONEY WAKING UP: Judging from what I've seen on Twitter and message boards, James Loney is the most-maligned person affiliated with the Dodgers not named McCourt. It's easy to see why, as he's flashed the power of a sub-par middle infielder while playing a traditional power position for the past several years. But he is starting to swing the bat better. He's hitting .382 in his past 11 games, helping his season batting average to rise 56 points. (LA Times ) Then again, he hasn't had a single extra-base hit in that span. Don't expect the chirping to stop any time soon.
AUSTIN, TOO: It's been a rough 2011 for Tigers second-year center fielder Austin Jackson. He entered the weekend hitting .190 with a .258 OBP and 43 strikeouts in 121 at-bats. Don't count out the 24 year old just yet, though, because he showed signs of life in a three-game series at Toronto. He went 7-13 for a double, home run, two RBI and two runs, raising his average 34 points. "He is gradually coming back," manager Jim Leyland said. "When he puts it in play, he gets hits. When he put the ball in play last year he had a fantastic batting average." (Detroit Free Press )
NO SALE: Chris Sale, a 22-year-old flamethrower for the White Sox, burst onto the scene last season and looked dominant. He threw only 23 1/3 innings, but struck out 32 hitters en route to posting a 1.93 ERA. This year, he's only thrown 11 1/3 innings, but has allowed the exact same number of hits (15), more earned runs (nine, compared to five last year) and more home runs (three, compared to two last year). His ERA is a grotesque 7.15. His fastball velocity is down, which could be part of the problem, but Sale isn't buying that. "My main focus is not about lighting up the radar gun,'' he said. "Everybody in this league can hit 98. That's no secret. It's a matter of where the pitch is, not how hard it is. I'm just trying to get back into a rhythm and figure out what's the reason behind what's going on." Everyone in the league can hit 98? Brandon Webb begs to differ. And someone get Greg Maddux on the phone ... though Maddux would most certainly agree with Sale's general point, which is that there's more to pitching than throwing hard. (Chicago Sun Times )
FOR REAL FRENCHY? Another season, another discussion of how good/bad Jeff Francoeur is. This time he's off to a hot start, so Fangraphs checks it out . The highlights are that his home runs per fly ball rate is unsustainable, but that Francoeur is swinging at far fewer pitches this season than in years past -- so the plate discipline improvement could propel him to one of his best seasons.
HOME COOKIN': Anibal Sanchez was one of the pitching stars of Mother's Day, as he took a no-hitter into the seventh and ended up with a career-high 11 strikeouts. So, of course, this was somehow due to his mom. "She made me breakfast this morning, so that's why I threw a game like that," Sanchez told reporters after the game.
QUADRUPLE-A: Taylor Teagarden hit three home runs and drove home seven in his return to Triple-A Sunday. That means in just seven Triple-A games this year, he has five bombs and 11 RBI. His last full season in the minors -- all the way back in 2007, Teagarden hit .310 with 27 home runs and 83 RBI. But in the majors, well, that's a different story. We know he has power. He has hit 16 home runs in 320 major-league at-bats, but he's also struck out 130 times and has a putrid .285 on-base percentage. Hey, maybe the Rangers can trade him to the Red Sox, just like they did Jarrod Saltalamacchia, another AAAA player.

Loney's struggles earn him fines for fly balls
By Evan Brunell
Dodgers manager Don Mattingly is so sick of seeing James Loney loft fly balls into left field for an easy out that he's decided to fine the first baseman a dollar per left-field fly out. (Loney will earn a buck per lineout.)
Mattingly is trying to get Loney to square up the ball to pull it or rifle a line drive to left. The 26-year-old -- who turns 27 in a matter of days -- is hitting a disappointing .202/.233/.239 on the year. Given Loney is not known for his power with sub-.400 slugging percentages the last two seasons, his lack of average and OBP is truly concerning. He was already a below-par first baseman, but with his decrease in plate discipline, has become an outright liability.
Interestingly enough, Loney's fly-ball percentage has actually decreased, with the difference going to groundballs, which now compromise 50 percent of his batted-ball profile. No wonder he's doing so terribly -- when you can only muster a weak groundout to an infielder, you won't get a hit.
But those flyballs remain problematic nonetheless. For Loney to loft a flyball to the opposite field, it means he's not squaring the ball up properly and hitting the ball near the end of the bat, or getting under the pitch. He's already lifted six fly balls in Dodger Stadium in 16 games to straightaway left field, while he only sent 13 in that direction last season in 80 games. (Spray chart of flyballs, right, courtesy MLB.com.) Way too many easy outs.
Loney's problems are compounded by his strugles against same-handed pitchers. Facing southpaws has given Loney fits so far this year, as he's slashing just .125/.120/.245 against them, compared with career numbers of .256/.314/.371. Not exactly scintillating numbers, but a darn sight better than what he's thrown up thus far.
Loney's making close to $5 million this season and would command a raise in his final year of arbitration next season even if he continues to flop majorly, as long as he receives ample playing time. That's a major negative of the arbitration process, and it's difficult to imagine L.A. going that route again after already biting the bullet.
Once upon a time, Loney actually did slug. His rookie campaign of 2006, when he received 111 plate appearances as a 22-year-old, came with six doubles and four home runs. He kept that up the next year with a .538 slugging percentage in 375 PA, bashing 15 home runs -- but he hasn't reached that number since. The next year, he sent out only 13 balls but managed to stay respectable with a .434 slugging percentage in 651 PA. It's been downhill since, and he only just cracked double-digits in homers for 2010 by sending one out September 28. It's not as if he contributes offensively in other areas, either; his batting average has decreased every season from 2007 to last year, bottoming out at .267. With a merely average eye, his OBP didn't help matters either at .329.
Loney's already losing time against lefties with Jerry Sands taking over first, allowing Marcus Thames to continue platooning out in left field. If he doesn't turn it around soon, the Dodgers won't hesitate to bench Loney and find a different solution. Loney simply isn't in the position to justify being consistently run out onto the field. Yes, he's only just turning 27, and is plenty young, but he's had three full years of minimal power and offense and is overpaid at almost $5 million a year. Defense only takes you so far, and right now, Loney is not deserving of a starting spot.For more baseball news, rumors and analysis, follow @cbssportsmlb on Twitter or subscribe to the RSS feed.

Let's talk about Sweet 16 parties!
- 137 Replies
Tell me about your Sweet 16.
Have you had a daughter turn 16 yet?
What did you do?
How much is too much for Sweet 16?
Yeah no. I didn't even know there was a concept of throwing a huge party at 16 much less that it was supposed to a mini wedding party huge and outrageous. No one I knew had one either.
Thankfully don't have a daughter and if I did she wouldn't get more than a standard party. (which I usually spend around 300-400 per party at the moment but my kid is still young.
As Sweet 16 parties go, 1500 dollars is cheap compared to what the big parties cost.
Quoting maureen813: My daughter turns sweet 16 in July, nothing planned so far but she is talking about a shopping spree with four of her friends, dinner in Boston and a sleepover, she went to one last weekend and the parents rented a limo, took a group of six to see the play, Wicked and paid fir dinner, it must have cost a fifteen hundred dollars and I am being conservative. I turned 16 in 1977 and had cake and pizza with friends...and went to a three dollar movie , times sure have changed!

High-spirited high jinks on Christmas Eve put Frank Cross (Bill Murray) in a ghostly time warp in this hilarious take-off of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol." Cross, who has made the meteoric rise from the depths of the mailroom to TV network president, is mean, nasty, uncaring, unforgiving and has a sadistic sense of humor - perfect qualities for a modern-day Scrooge.
Before the night is over, he'll be visited by a maniacal New York cab driver from the past, a present-day fairy who's into pratfalls and, finally, a ghoulish seven-foot-headless messenger from the future.
The outrageous comic antics that were Murray's trademark in the 1980s combine with eye-popping special effects and the traditional heartwarming story, in a festive movie that will entertain children and adults alike.

|Fortification of soy sauce using various iron sources: sensory acceptability and shelf stability.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 16572715 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|BACKGROUND: Soy sauces are available in different types and grades, which allows them to reach consumers of all socioeconomic groups. Ferric sodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (NaFeEDTA) has been used for iron fortification of soy sauces in some countries, however, its high cost may make it unattractive to policymakers and industry. OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the feasibility of using more economical iron sources for iron fortification, with soy sauce of various types and grades used as a vehicle. METHODS: Seven iron sources were tested for their feasibility for fortification of four types of soy sauce: naturally fermented in the traditional style, naturally fermented according to large-scale industrial formulas 1 and 5, and chemically hydrolyzed at 5 mg per serving (15 mL, per Thailand's food labeling regulations). Either citric acid or sodium citrate was added at 0.1% as a chelator. RESULTS: Five iron sources--ferrous sulfate, NaFeEDTA, ferric ammonium citrate, ferrous lactate, and ferrous gluconate--did not significantly affect the sensory qualities of the product over a period of 3 months (p > .05). Ferrous fumarate and ferrous bisglycinate caused unacceptable precipitation. Less than 3% of 260 and 306 commonly cooked foods out of 871 and 772 preparations using soy sauces fortified with NaFeEDTA and ferrous sulfate, respectively, were found to be different from normal with regard to sensory qualities. The cost of fortification was US 0.22 cents to US 3.28 cents per bottle (700 mL). CONCLUSIONS: Both naturally fermented and chemically hydrolyzed soy sauces could be fortified with all five iron sources. Ferrous sulfate is the most appropriate source because of its low cost and acceptable sensory characteristics. Soy sauce is a promising vehicle for iron fortification, however, the bioavailability of iron in the products examined here needs to be evaluated under normal use conditions.

Brandon Jackson runs back a kickoff return for a touchdown during Saturday's Packers Family Night scrimmage at Lambeau Field. Evan Siegle/Press-Gazette
Brandon Jackson was one of the last players to return to the locker room after the Packers Family Night scrimmage on Saturday at Lambeau Field.

He stayed on the field in his uniform to enjoy the fireworks show with his family. Earlier in the evening, it was Jackson who produced some fireworks when he returned a kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown.
Yes, it was just a glorified practice, and no, Jackson wasnt facing the Packers No. 1 kickoff team when he burst down the right sideline and took off for the races. Still, Jackson sent a message that. if needed, he can do the job in the absence of the injured Will Blackmon, and do it well.
Yes, I would love to be the guy back there, Jackson said. Its fun, exciting. When you get me out in open space, Im very exciting, so I love it.
Jackson is aware the Packers havent produced a kickoff return for a touchdown since the 2000 season. He would like to be the man who breaks the drought.
Blackmon is considered the Packers top return man, although his specialty is punt runbacks. He is coming off knee surgery, and the Packers are being cautious with him. Blackmon sat out the scrimmage as well as Fridays practice to take some pressure off his knee joint, according to coach Mike McCarthy, but is expected back soon.
The question is, will the kickoff return job be available when Blackmon returns, based on Jacksons stellar effort?
Thats to be determined, McCarthy said. Brandon knows how the kickoff return needs to be run. Its a little change of philosophy from what weve done in the past. He demonstrated tonight that he can do it the right way. He definitely (will) have an opportunity for that.
Jackson has done it all during the first week of training camp. Not only can he return kicks, but he lined up with the Packers No. 1 kickoff team earlier in the week. He is fast becoming one of the most valuable special teams players.
Normally a running back isnt the most likely candidate to pull down duty on the kickoff team, also known as the suicide squad.
How does a running back learn to tackle?
Jackson said he played cornerback and linebacker in high school, in addition to his primary job as a running back.
Special teams coach Shawn Slocum has been impressed with Jacksons ability to find the ball in coverage.
Going out there making a tackle when youre a running back, thats exciting to me, Jackson said.
Prior to getting drafted by the Packers in the second round in 2007, the last time Jackson played on the kickoff team was in the ninth grade. But he is willing to do whatever the team asks, including risking life and limb running full speed down the field in search of a ball carrier.
Theres longevity in this league if you can play more than one position, doing more than one thing, Jackson said.
Im short and fast and slippery.
Jackson said he would love to get more carries as a halfback, but hes not complaining about his backup role behind Ryan Grant. Jackson is an excellent pass blocker and serves as the Packers third-down back.
When asked if theres anything he cant do on the football field, Jackson said with a laugh: Play quarterback. Thats about it. I give it up to Aaron Rodgers.
Any other job, however, Jackson is willing and seemingly able to do.
Mike Vandermause is sports editor of the Press-Gazette.

The battle, however, is not over.
Commissioners authorized Randy Kirkpatrick, executive director, to work out a deal with former New Mexico state engineer John R. D'Antonio, Jr.
The settlement would secure 6,300 acre-feet of water per year from an application the commission filed in 2001.
An acre-foot is roughly enough water to supply a suburban family for one year.
The water rights case, San Juan Water Commission vs. John R. D'Antonio, New Mexico State Engineer, is pending an appeal.
If the New Mexico Court of Appeals sides with the commission, Kirkpatrick will negotiate the settlement.
Farmington city officials disagree with stipulations in the commission's proposed settlement agreement, approved on Feb. 6.
The city's commission representative was directed not to vote to approve the deal based on issues related to who actually holds the water rights.
He abstained from voting.
Nonetheless, Mayor Tommy Roberts said Monday that the additional water will benefit all county residents.
"In my mind, that's a big plus," he said. "But we still have an issue -- whether the commission ultimately holds the water rights, or whether it is apportioned out to its member entities.
Kirkpatrick was traveling and could not be reached for comment on Monday.
The commission is made up of representatives of the cities of Aztec, Farmington and Bloomfield, and the San Juan County Rural Water Users Association.
Elected officials, however, are not directly represented, Councilwoman Mary Fischer said at a recent city council meeting.
That lack of representation is cause for concern, she said.
She feels the commission has little accountability to the public as a result.
"I have problems with how the commission operates," Fischer said on Monday. "These aren't new concerns. I was hoping they would take the information back to the governing bodies. That was the original intent for the commission when it was created."
Farmington City Council will go into a closed session Tuesday morning to discuss the settlement.
Commission representatives and state officials worked out the settlement deal in late January, according to a commission press release.
The settlement's origins go back more than a decade when the commission filed an application for the additional water rights in 2001.
The application requested water that was no longer needed for the Animas-La Plata Project but the office of the state engineer refused to publish the application. The commission appealed the decision.
The State District Court in San Juan County ruled in the commission's favor in August 2011 and ordered the state engineer to publish the application.
The San Juan Water Commission would withdraw its objections to a pending Navajo Nation Water Rights Settlement as part of the deal.
The commission has not voted on whether to support that settlement.
A trial to decide whether the Navajo Nation settlement should be approved is scheduled for June.

Junior forward Justin Jackson, who started all 15 of UC?s previous games, did not play in Monday's loss against Notre Dame.
Already saddled with two home losses in the Big East, the University of Cincinnati Bearcats now must hit the road to play five of their next seven games.
While that sounds daunting, it may be exactly what they need to right the ship.
UC coach Mick Cronin clearly appeared to be trying to get his players to adopt an "us-against-the-world" mentality when he responded to a question after the Bearcats' loss to Notre Dame on Monday night by declaring that he and his players are comfortable in the role of receiving little respect and having to rely on each other. ...

From Michael Laybourn
Parts One and Two
Keep in mind that the system in Germany has been proven. It works.
The State of California doesn't appear to be plugged in…
…So what about Ukiah?
First of all, Ukiah owns its own utility. Let your imagination soar…. The city already has a rebate program for installing solar electricity. But it is fairly puny in the sense of Germany, where they were committed to a quick move to alternative energy.
Here is the City of Ukiah program:
"Under SB 1, solar program incentives must decline to zero by the end of 2016 to achieve a self-sufficient solar electric industry within 10 years. The City presently offers a $2.24 per Watt AC incentive for the installation of solar systems. "
Proposed City of Ukiah 10 year declining solar incentive schedule:
Fiscal Yr 2007- 08 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12
Incentive $2.80 $2.52 $2.24 $1.96 $1.68
and so forth…
Hey we're going in the wrong direction!
The hard part is trying to figure out what the rebate actually amounts to for Ukiah. Take a 2.4 KW system like mine, which supplies most of my electrical. $2.24 * 2.4KW = about $5376 + various tax rebates. Now the state has a different rebate, and I called the state to see if you can stack the rebates. (City and State). I was told no with a chuckle.
The State rebate is relatively pitiful at $1.55 / watt.
Here is the state rebate program with a calculator link:
"The incentive is determined using the NSHP PV Calculator and will be reserved for you at that amount once your application is approved. Later, it will be verified by a field test. This program is called Expected Performance Based Incentive (EPBI) and the incentive amount reduces as installed mW triggers are reached.
Commercial and Existing Residential Systems less than 50kW initially will receive a similar, one time, up front incentive based on expected system performance. This rebate will be administered by the California Public Utility Commission thru your Electric Service Provider. Commercial and Residential rebates are currently $1.55 per watt."
Or $3720 for the above system. Even adding the two together doesn't reach the rebate of 5 years ago. As I've noted, Guv Schwarzenegger and the California lawmakers haven't done anything to improve our need to wean ourselves from oil, or make it easier for us to go solar in our homes. Actually they haven't done much of anything period.
What if?… the City of Ukiah followed the proven German model and provided:
1. Low interest loans for solar conversion.
2. Bought the electricity from solar houses at a rate that would pay back the loans.
3. Gave a larger rebate: 1/2 or more of the system cost.
Certainly, many homes and businesses would elect to go solar. This would give the City an increasing amount of energy that would not have to be purchased from other sources. This energy is not only cleaner, but is more stable and the City would benefit from decentralized and more stable energy sources. It might be somewhat more expensive at first, while the homeowner is paying off the cost of the system, but eventually Ukiah could be creating much of its own power and that energy could be less expensive and not controlled by the so-called free market by companies like Enron, etc.
On top of that, electric autos could be purchased and plugged in at night. Most driving is not over 40 miles and an electric car would take care of local driving. Talk about lowering our carbon footprint!
Where to get the money to do this? Like the Germans, charge a little more energy rates to spread the costs. That cost the German energy user an increase of a dollar of two monthly, which wouldn't be that expensive.
But now… we live in even more exciting times. This just out a few days ago:
"1/16/2009: The U.S. House of Representatives today unveiled a draft of the $825 billion economic stimulus plan that contains $54 billion in key provisions for the development of renewable energy projects and improving the electric grid, according to published reports. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Bill of 2009 includes $8 billion in loan guarantees for renewable energy and transmission projects, $11 billion to improve the electrical grid, $6.9 billion to improve federal buildings and make them more energy efficient, plus $2 billion in loan guarantees and grants for advanced battery technologies and $1.5 billion in grants and loans to help schools become more energy efficient."
There will soon be money available for projects such as developing our own local energy. Mendocino County is full of people that know how to write grants and speak the language of government. Keep in mind that this would also be creating jobs and another possible industry: Training people for these jobs. Energy independence. We can show the nation how to do this.
How about it, City Council? Let's get local with energy production!

The introduction to NVIDIA's launch has surely been out of the ordinary. There was this time when the demand was so strong that NVIDIA pulled pre-orders ahead by a couple of days and then after some time it dropped down the prices for some reason. Then suddenly last month, when we were just about to see it make debut in the market; the company discovered a drawback in the device and stopped the launch right away. Things have been a bit on the silent mode since then. But now the company has given its final verdict on the launch, and that shall be by the end of this month.

Behold, the day of days has arrived: Kickstarted darling Ouya, the Android-powered video game console, is available to the public. It sold out on Amazon in just a few hours and I'll bet that other retailers are finding their stocks a little low, too. I backed Ouya on Kickstarter shortly before the close of the nearly $8.6M funding round last summer, and I received my backer unit a couple of weeks ago. I've had some time to play several of the games and poke around the device a bit.

It seems like the big tablet / AIO market has become one of the main interests of many PC and device makers. We can well agree with the fact when Samsung announced it ATIV Q tablet which is a 13 inch convertible slate running both Windows 8 and Android 4.2 and now it looks like that HP is has the same plan cooking in its mind. Yes! It's true; HP is planning to move on with its own line of devices with another major desktop AIO.

President Obama, who made no secret of his penchant for BlackBerry smartphones when he took office, has been photographed recently wielding an Apple iPad.
When the White House released an image in January showing the president viewing his daily intelligence briefing via iPad, many assumed the mobile device was designed to handle secure communications. Instead, intelligence officials simply downloaded the briefing onto the presidential iPad and disabled its Wi-Fi capability, said Shawn Turner, spokesman for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.
"The tablet gives us a way to present the PDB in a multimedia format," Turner said. "Video or audio files can be embedded."
He declined to comment on any specific steps government officials are taking to protect sensitive information on the device but said, "It's very secure."
Nevertheless, some security experts were surprised to see such highly classified information on any type of mobile device.
"My first thought was, 'Holy crap! I hope they secured that thing,'" said Tony DeLaGrange, a security consultant at Secure Ideas of Jacksonville, Fla.
DeLaGrange and other security experts said the move was inevitable.
"Let's face it, the rest of the world has been using mobile devices for years," said Andrew Storms, information technology director for San Francisco-based nCircle Network Security. Plus, it's hard to deny the iPad's appeal, said W. Hord Tipton, executive director of the International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium. Tipton took no issue with the White House's security strategy.
"Operating on embedded hardware and software machines is safer, in my mind, than sending stuff over the wire," Tipton said.
Other security officials suggested, however, that it might be better if the president's iPad were linked to a secure network. Then, he would be able to communicate with his intelligence staff during briefings. In addition, the network would give security teams remote access to add or remove data from the iPad.
"They could deliver the briefing to the president just in time and as soon as he was done viewing it, it could be removed," Storms said.
That feature would be particularly welcome in the unlikely event that someone misplaced the presidential iPad.
"We saw pictures of him walking with an iPad, getting into his limousine with an iPad," Storms said. "Who knows if that briefing was still on there. I can't imagine they would ever lose the president's iPad, but strange things happen."
