Steelers @ Browns-- The Steelers can't lose to the Browns after blowing 4th quarter leads to the Chiefs and Raiders, can they? I doubt it. Look for the losing streak to end here and for the Browns to lose their 11th straight home game. PREDICTION: STEELERS
Saints @ Falcons-- Even if the Saints defense struggles again this week, I don't see how they lose to a banged up Falcons team that may or may not have Matt Ryan and Michael Turner back. PREDICTION: SAINTS
Lions @ Ravens-- The Lions will be starting Dante Culpepper in this one; a QB who hasn't won a single game for them - ever. Not liking their chances. PREDICTION: RAVENS
Packers @ Bears-- The Packers defense is peaking at the right time. The O-line has done a much better job of protecting Aaron Rodgers. Look for Rodgers to have another big game, and for Jay Cutler's struggles to continue. PREDICTION: PACKERS
Seahawks @ Texans-- The Texans - for some odd reason - seem to play better when they have nothing to play for. With their playoff hopes dead, look for Andre Johnson & company to have a big day against a struggling Seahawks team. PREDICTION: TEXANS
Broncos @ Colts-- The Broncos are coming off two impressive wins to face a Colts team that hasn't lost a regular season game since some time early last year. Two very good defenses face each other here, so expect a close, low scoring game; with possibly a 4th QTR field goal deciding the outcome. I give the Colts the edge because of Peyton Manning playing at home. PREDICTION: COLTS
Dolphins @ Jaguars-- The Dolphins wised up and finally started to trust their QB last week when the running game was going nowhere. Chad Henne is the real deal. The Dolphins also have one of the best run defenses in the league, so look for them to shut down Maurice Jones-Drew; forcing David Garrard to try to win the game for them. I'll take Chad Henne over David Garrard. PREDICTION: DOLPHINS
Bills @ Chiefs-- The Chiefs looked putrid last week. It got so bad, Matt Cassel was benched. But, the Bills bring a pretty lack-luster offense to Arrowhead Stadium this Sunday. Don't ask me why, but I don't think we'll see the Chiefs come out and play the way they did last week for a 2nd home game in a row. The Chiefs in a close one. PREDICTION: CHIEFS
Bengals @ Vikings-- Two very good defenses face off in this one. Shockingly, the Bengals actually have the better running game right now. Adrian Peterson has only averaged 3.0 yards per carry over his past three games. Both teams will bring a good pass rush. But, I expect Brett Favre will make one too many mistakes in this one, and the Bengals will ride the Cedric Benson train again to control the clock. I'll take the road team in the upset. PREDICTION: BENGALS
Panthers @ Patriots-- The Patriots "dynasty" is dead. But, they still have Tom Brady, Wes Welker and Randy Moss. The Panthers have Matt Moore, Steve Smith, and 40-something-year-old Mushin Muhamaad. Call me crazy, but I'll give the home team the edge here. LOL. PREDICTION: PATRIOTS
Jets @ Buccaneers-- The Jets are sitting Mark Sanchez in this one. I don't think it makes a difference. Rookie QB Josh Freeman will have to contend with one of the better secondaries in the league. He threw 5 INT's last week. I'm expecting at least 2 in this one. The Jets running game and defense takes care of business. PREDICTION: JETS
Rams @ Titans-- Steven Jackson is one of the best football players in the league that no one talks about. Too bad he's on a Rams team that can't score TD's. The Titans can score TD's. Look for them to bounce back in a big way. Titans big at home. PREDICTION: TITANS
Redskins @ Raiders-- Out of the 4 games the Raiders have won this year, three of those games were against the Eagles, Bengals, and the Superbowl Champion Steelers. Tom "Balboa" Cable has this team fighting hard, and the QB switch to Bruce Gradkowski appears to be paying off. They face a Redskins team that is competitive, but makes too many mistakes and has not learned to finish games. For the first time all season, I'm picking the Raiders to win. PREDICTION: RAIDERS
Chargers @ Cowboys-- The so-called, media-hyped "December swoon" will have nothing to do with this outcome. I don't believe in jinxes and media labels. The better team will win - period. The Chargers are red hot, and Philip Rivers is playing like an MVP-worthy QB. The defense hasn't been great. But, this team knows how to win, and will demonstrate it once again in the Cowboys trillion-dollar stadium; underneath the billion-dollar TV screen. Cheap shots by Flozell Adams won't save the Cowboys in this one either. PREDICTION: CHARGERS
Eagles @ Giants-- The Giants seemed to come back to life last week and find their own pulse. Coughlin benched the players that were draggin a$$. The tactic seems to have paid off. Something tells me the good effort we saw last week will continue. The Eagles will underestimate the Giants. Look for the Giants pass-rush to get after McNabb and force him into one too many mistakes. Giants do just enough to win to take it in the upset. PREDICTION: GIANTS
Cardinals @ 49ers-- The 49ers are a team I just can't figure out. They started off the season as a running team that played stingy defense. Now, they are a passing team that can't run the ball and plays average defense. Who are these guys? The Vikings couldn't get after Kurt Warner enough to slow him down, so I don't see how the 49ers do it. Look for the Cardinals success on the road to continue. PREDICTION: CARDINALS

Fort Wayne Apartments For Rent
What do a "mad" Revolutionary War general and an apple-tree-loving folk hero have in common? Fort Wayne, Indiana!
In 1794, General "Mad" Anthony Wayne, a Brigadier General during the Revolutionary War, ordered the construction of a fort at the confluence of three rivers. The fort was named for him. The General earned a reputation as a bold (some would even say "mad") commander during the Revolutionary War. A full-scale replica of the fort is open to visitors.
Johnny Appleseed, an American pioneer nurseryman who was known for his conservation and concern for animals, was born John Chapman in 1774. He died in Fort Wayne in 1845, and his gravesite is located on a 12-acre memorial at Johnny Appleseed Park. The park hosts the annual Johnny Appleseed Festival, which includes crafts, food, and historic demonstrations. The festival takes place in September.
When a city can claim a "mad" general and a folk legend, it is a place with plenty of stories, tons of history, and fantastic destinations. Get ready for an adventure – it's time to search for apartments in Fort Wayne!
Things to Do in Fort Wayne:
Fort Wayne is home to an extensive park and trail system. The city prides itself on having a park within walking distance for every one out of five children, and with an impressive 86 public parks covering 2,805 acres, you'll be close to a park no matter where you rent in Fort Wayne! The largest park in the city is Franke Park, which contains more than 339 acres and is home to the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo – a zoo that was included on Parents Magazine's list of Ten Best Zoos!
Downtown Fort Wayne is home to unique shops, art galleries, and boutiques. It is also the location of the Grand Wayne Convention Center and Parkview Field ballpark. Parkview is a fantastic location to watch a baseball game – it was even named the nation's number one minor league stadium.
The Allen County Courthouse is a must-see after moving to an apartment in Fort Wayne. It is a National Historic Landmark and it is gorgeous – considered one of the best examples of Beaux Arts architecture with intricate murals and beautiful art glass.
The Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum is a unique destination that may quickly become a favorite – especially when searching for a place to take out-of-town visitors! This museum is also a registered National Historic Landmark – it is located in the Auburn Automobile Company building, the national headquarters from the 1930s. The museum houses more than 120 classic, vintage, and antique cars. It was named one the nation's top automotive destinations by Old Cars Weekly and Autoweek magazine.
When you arrive to Castle Gallery, the first thing you'll notice is the intricate stonework and the turrets – you may find yourself checking the windows for ghostly figures! This historic mansion is just the beginning – it was built in 1905 in the Richardsonian Romanesque style and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The mansion has operated as a fine arts museum twice – during the late 1940s, it served as the municipal art museum. The museum was moved in the early 1980s and the mansion was restored as a private residence. It became a fine arts museum again in 1995. The museum features art from around the world and hosts special events.
Fort Wayne offers a variety of tours – take one to learn more about your new home! The Historic Downtown Walking Tour highlights Fort Wayne's history and includes the Fort Wayne Fire Fighers Museum, the Allen County Public Library, The Landing, and Allen County Courthouse.
The Downtown Walking Tour takes visitors to some of Fort Wayne's most popular destinations, including the Foellinger-Freimann Botanical Conservatory, the Grand Wayne Center, the History Center, the Fort Wayne Museum of Art, and the Auer Center for Performing Arts.
Fort Wayne's Famous Coney Island is a family-owned business serving up their famous "Coney Dogs" since 1914. Be sure to stop in and enjoy a dog – the atmosphere is vintage and the Coca-Cola is still served in little glass bottles. If you don't want a "Coney Dog," they also serve hamburgers, cheeseburgers, chili, and baked beans.
When you want to catch a show, whether it's a Broadway musical or a stand-up comedian, the Fort Wayne Civic Theatre will be your go-to destination. In addition to plays, musical events, and stand-up comedy, the theater also hosts the Northeast Indiana Playwright Festival.
From your new Fort Wayne apartment, you'll be able to head to Amish Country in nearby Grabill. Here, you'll discover more than 150 antique and flea market vendors at the Country Shops of Grabill, grab a bite or a cup of coffee at a café, and enjoy the rustic H. Souder General Store – a true old-fashioned general store, complete with "penny candy" and old-fashioned toys.
Other great destinations include Schmucker's Amish Farm Market, which sells Amish cheese and butter, locally-grown produce, and more. And while you are exploring the area, be sure to visit Spencerville Covered Bridge – it is located about six miles from Grabill and is the oldest covered bridge in the region – it was built in 1873.
What to Consider When Moving to Fort Wayne:
Fort Wayne became a town in 1829 and a city in 1840, but its history dates back to General Wayne's 1794 fort. Those historic beginnings are still evident, with beautiful Victorian architecture dominating the landscape. Curvy Queen Anne turrets and boxy Italianate lines give Fort Wayne, Indiana a character that can't be topped.
Fort Wayne enjoys a strong economy based in manufacturing, logistics, defense, and insurance. Some of the major companies based in the city include Steel Dynamics, Vera Bradley, BFGoodrich, and Lincoln Financial.
As you search for apartments in Fort Wayne, be aware of the various sections and neighborhoods. Fort Wayne is divided into northeast, northwest, southeast, and southwest sections. These sections feature a variety of neighborhoods that are separated by the Maumee River (northeast and southeast) and the Saint Marys River (northwest and southwest).
Why Fort Wayne Apartments Are Hot:
Fort Wayne has 86 parks (11 of which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places), several museums, great shopping, restaurants, and theaters. It is a beautiful city, titled a "Tree City USA" 18 years in a row. Often named one of the most livable cities in the US, Fort Wayne apartments are most definitely hot!

Shooting should be fun. In fact, I grew up learning to shoot in a safe and fun environment. Lately it's all too easy to get hung up on what needs to be reviewed, photographed, video taken, new angles to shoot from and working on grips and tactics to give a more accurate representation of the gun. Safety always plays a first priority type part, but unfortunately sometimes fun gets left out.
Henry Repeating Arms boast some very specific traits that are found in few gun makers in the U.S. today. First of all, they design and build lever action rifles exclusively. Henry rifles are also made entirely in the U.S.A. with parts entirely FROM the U.S.A. In fact, they're so passionate about making all of their products in the United States, they say they won't make them at all if they have to go overseas with work.
Last week I got to shoot some EXTREMELY fun guns and do it with people I enjoy being around and shooting with (most of my shooting/video is done 100% solo). It's a little disconcerting to think about and even reveal to all of you that while I've shot a variety of lever action rifles in larger calibers (.444 Marlin, 45-70, .45 Long Colt, 30/30 Win) I have yet to fire a Henry Repeater let alone do a rifle review on one. Well, that is until today. This little rifle has a beautiful finish all around. The American (Missouri on commercials) Walnut stock is exquisite with a smooth satin finish and the blued finish on the receiver, lever, barrel and tube magazine are equally as impressive.
Simplicity runs rampant across this gun as it screams simple beauty and a design that just WORKS. The operation of the lever, hammer and trigger are all buttery smooth as can be while still offering a super tight finish and lock up. There is nothing stiff and rigid about this gun. In fact, EVERYTHING about it screams, "SHOOT ME, SHOOT ME, SHOOT ME!" The hooded front sight is easy to pick up through the horned rear sight and regardless of the shooters height or length of pull he shouldn't have a problem getting comfortable on this rifle.
One of Henry's mottos is "Load on Sunday and Shoot All Week." This motto doesn't feel far from the truth when you're plowing through the 15 rounds of 22 Long Rifle the Classic Lever Action holds. This rifle wasn't brand new at the point of review, BUT after several hundred rounds and ZERO failures of any sort with any ammo, it's comforting to know this rifle function like you would expect a traditional lever gun to. On top of its reliability, depending on your application you can shoot 22 Long Rifle, Long, and SHORT RIFLE ammo through this gun with no problem. The thought of shooting accurately and quietly with CB Shorts (750 fps, 29 grain bullet) through a repeater like this sounds like a blast.
I do need to give a special shout of thanks and recognition to my cousin Jeremy who readily let me review this rifle that he's loved and cared for for several years now. Thanks my friend for your generous donation to Haus of Guns!

Iraqis Protest Impasse After Six Months Without a Government
Dozens of Iraqis staged a peaceful sit-in inside the parliament building in Baghdad to mark six months of political stalemate following inconclusive elections.
The demonstrators, who waved Iraqi flags, included academics and members of trade unions and human-rights advocacy groups.
"We demand the resumption of meetings of the Iraqi parliament and an end to the deadlock," Zeinab Qassem, one of the organizers of today's protest, said in an interview. She said similar events will be held in the coming days in the southern cities of Basra and Samawah and in the northern region of Kurdistan.
Iraqis defied threats from militants to cast ballots on March 7 in the second parliamentary poll since the 2003 ouster of Saddam Hussein. Political leaders have been seeking allies since the vote, which gave no bloc enough seats to govern alone.
The impasse has coincided with an increase in violence, causing some investors such as CGGVeritas, the world's largest seismic surveyor for oil and gas, to delay projects in the country. Iraq, holder of the world's third-largest oil reserves, is seeking $400 billion to $500 billion in foreign investment to rebuild its economy, devastated by decades of war and sanctions.
"Terrorists have been taking advantage of the deadlock and are trying to undermine state institutions by targeting judges, and members of the Iraqi police and army," said Hanaa Edwar, another protest organizer who is a member of a human-rights advocacy group, the Iraqi al-Amal Association.
The vacuum has also sparked a deterioration in the provision of necessities, including electricity, water, fuel and health care, and prompted higher unemployment, she said, adding "and all this, in an intense summer heat."
Election Results
Former Prime Minister Ayad Allawi's Iraqiyah bloc won 91 seats in the elections. Premier Nuri al-Maliki's State of Law alliance garnered 89 seats, the Iraqi National Alliance took 70 and an alliance of Kurdish parties won 43. The Iraqi parliament has 325 seats, and a governing coalition requires 163.
Iraq's new lawmakers met for the first time on June 14. That session was adjourned after 15 minutes and won't resume until the four main blocs have agreed on distributing key posts.
Edwar said she has attended meetings with political leaders and that she has noted a "complete" absence of trust.
"A new government is still very far away," she said. "It will take time, maybe more than two months for them to agree."
On Sept. 4, the INA announced that its candidate for the premiership is Adel Abdel Mahdi, one of two vice presidents. State of Law says al-Maliki should serve another term. Allawi's group wants him to be prime minister.
The legislature's adjournment has prompted debate in Iraq, with some groups saying it is illegal. Among them is al-Amal, which on Aug. 14 filed a claim with the Supreme Federal Court against parliamentary speaker Mohamed Fouad Maasum, alleging he breached the constitution by calling the break in proceedings.
"We demand an end to the open session," Edwar said. "Otherwise, we will start calling for the dissolution of parliament and for new elections."

Former Peters Township players making college impacts
Introducing the version of "Remember Them?"
Two former Peters Township baseball stars from the class of 2008 are doing big things on the college level.
Jim Rider, a shortstop, recently set the Kent State record for career hits and is this week's Mid-American Conference East Division Player of the Week. Rider (pictured) now has 316 career hits. He was 5 for 5 in a game last week against Penn State.
Rider, a senior, is hitting .361 this season and is fourth in the country in doubles with 21. He already has set Kent State's school record for defensive assists.
Meanwhile, former Peters Township home-run king J.J. Jankowski is making a big name for himself in college as a pitcher. After starting his career at Miami, Ohio, in the MAC, Jankowski transferred to Catawba College, an NCAA Division II in Salisbury, N.C. Catawba is a top 20 Division II program and Jankowski leads all of NCAA Division II baseball teams in the country in strikeouts with 126 in 90 innings.
Jankowski (pictured) has been selected the South Atlantic Conference co-Pitcher of the Year. Jankowski is 9-2 with a 3.79 ERA for a team that is ranked 14th in the country in Division II.
I have no idea where Rider and Jankowski stand as far as draft status. But it will be interesting to see if they are drafted. The funny thing is Jankowski was drafted in the 34th round coming out of high school -- as a catcher. He was known for his home-run hitting at Peters Township.
*** Seneca Valley graduate Cory Mazzoni is off to a fast start with the New York Mets Class A team in Port St. Lucie, Fla. Mazzoni (pictured), a pitcher, was taken in the second round of the draft last year out of North Carolina State. He is 3-0 so far this season and pitched five shutout innings Saturday with four strikeouts. Mazzoni has 24 strikeouts in 17 innings and his ERA is 3.00.
*** Scott McGough, a Plum graduate, is 1-0 with a 1.69 ERA for Rancho Cucamongo, Calif., a Class A affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers. McGough has pitched 10 innings and has nine strikeouts.
*** Terran Senay, a South Park graduate, has played in 36 games for North Carolina State and started 29. He is batting .248 with 19 RBUs.
*** Matt Berezo, a former shortstop at Pine-Richland, has started 20 games for Duke and is batting .281. He has five doubles and two triples.
Duke pitcher Dillon Haviland, a freshman from South Fayette, is 1-1 with a 7.88 ERA. He has pitched 16 innings in 10 appearances.
*** Mercyhurst is having a good season in the PSAC with a 35-13 record, and a number of former WPIAL players are having impacts. Blackhawk graduate Ben Rawding has been selected the PSAC West Pitcher of the Year, while Freeport graduate Ryan Siegel is the PSAC West Freshman of the Year.
Rawdins is 8-0 with a 2.79 ERA, and 74 strikeouts in 67 2/3 innings.
Siegel is batting .389 with 33 RBIs in 44 games.
Also for Mercyhurst, former Elziabeth Forward star Dan Altavilla was a first-team all-PSAC West selection. Altavilla, a freshman, has a 5-0 record with a 1.07 ERA. He has made 14 appearances, all in relief, and has 35 strikeouts in 25 1/3 innings. Altavilla was the Post-Gazette Player of the Year last season.

Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel Xbox 360
- Publisher: Electronic Arts
- Release Date: Mar 26, 2013
- Also On: PlayStation 3
- Critic Score
- Most active
- Publication
- Most clicked
Mar 29, 2013Devil's Cartel feels like a hollowed-out version of previous Army of Two games. The distinctive edges have been sanded down, creating something that's not just generic but unrelated to what went before.
Mar 30, 2013There's nothing here to make a mark: no creativity on display, no clever competitive modes, no sense of accomplishment. There's only a seven-hour campaign, optional missions in which you try to keep the overkill meter consistently replenished, and the knowledge that in a month, you won't remember having played Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel.
Mar 28, 2013On one hand, the lack of polish and the glitches cause me to give the game a less-than-stellar score. On the other hand, I can't deny that my co-op partner and I were laughing and enjoying ourselves for the large majority of the campaign. As a mindless co-op shooter, it delivers.
Mar 28, 2013The Devil's Cartel is functional and fuss-free, a game that delivers the expected genre tropes with as little imagination and as much bluster as possible. It's not a bad game, but nor does it have anything beyond basic mechanical competence to mark it out as "good" - and even that competence wobbles more than it should.
Apr 4, 2013In the end, Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel has nothing to do with the previous two entries, does little to invite gamers back, and does even less to really excite anyone for a future title.
Apr 8, 2013If you haven't had the chance to play the first two games, do that instead. If you've already gone through those titles, rent this if you feel like blowing through something disposable for an afternoon.
Apr 2, 2013Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel is an underwhelming third-person shooter that is a clearly a half-hearted cash-grab by Electronic Arts. If you're looking for a game in this genre, I suggest you turn to Gears of War or any number other titles of this ilk. Seriously, this game isn't worth your time. It isn't broken, it just isn't good either.
Apr 3, 2013Army of Two is still pure action 100%, without any sort of character depth but full of intensity and destruction.
Games Master UKMay 9, 2013Kill, level up, customize. It's hardly Brain Training, but this is explosive and fun. [June 2013, p.76]
Mar 29, 2013Devil's Cartel seems to accomplish exactly what it set out to do, offering an intense, impressive two-player co-op experience that's heavily customizable and replayable. While it won't likely scratch the itch of those looking for a more traditional shooter game--namely, competitive online multiplayer--it's an original concept set inside familiar trappings.
Apr 30, 2013If I had to sum up The Devil's Cartel in a few words, I'd say it's all style and no substance. Whereas its predecessors at least tried to be mildly entertaining, this entry has no problem tossing waves of faceless goons at you until you either mow them all down and proceed to the next level or give up and play something else. With this game, I recommend choosing the latter.
Apr 5, 2013Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel is a prime example of a series that has a lot in its way. Nothing here drives the experience forward, and instead leaves most of what makes it special behind.
games(TM)May 20, 2013As an entry into a series that has failed to realise its potential, this is safe and dare we say it, also a bit boring. [Issue#135, p.106]
Apr 2, 2013Charged with issues and with a boring campaign, Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel is a flawed and unremarkable game.
Apr 2, 2013It's simply baffling that it manages to make so many mistakes within such a well-worn template.
Mar 27, 2013Even if you couldn't care less how efficiently you put hundreds of drug-dealing scumbags to rest, you may well be surprised by how enjoyable a bit of this disposable ultraviolence can be.
Mar 28, 2013A lot of what comprises Army of Two: The Third is total crap, and yet I had a lot of fun playing it. We don't know how EA has done it. They probably don't know how they've done it. But they have. And I'm glad they did.
Mar 28, 2013Buggy, unnecessary, and outstays its welcome before the credits close...Army of Two has never been an especially bad series, it's just never been an especially good one. The Devil's Cartel is the ultimate example of this. Is it bad? Not especially. But it's a far, far cry from good.
Apr 8, 2013Among real disasters and really interesting ideas Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel is exactly what was expected. We face the usual Army of Two, dedicated to less demanding gamers.
Apr 1, 2013Nothing about the game (other than the bugs) is particularly bad, but there is very little to recommend here either. As a single-player experience there are much better ways to spend your cash, and even in cooperative play I'd only recommend it pulled from the bargain bin.
Apr 30, 2013All in all, Devil's Cartel just differs too much from the winning formula for those fans of the first two games, and for the newcomers, there are better co-operative games on the market for your dollar.
May 2, 2013Devil's Cartel has a "been there, done that" attitude, and after playing it you will, too.
Pelit (Finland)May 13, 2013A prime example of a gamified action film from the eighties. The story is only an excuse for bloodshed and the game is far from unconventional. Yes, I've seen this before at least dozens of times, but then again, there's always room for some good old-fashioned pointless violence. [May 2013]
Mar 29, 2013Not particularly flawed, The Devil's Cartel is just an unimaginative TPS without any exceptionally good features.
Apr 2, 2013In Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel you shoot Mexican drug-lords for about seven hours straight. This bland task becomes monotonous after a while and having a partner along for the ride unfortunately doesn't really matter. Just like other games in the series, it doesn't manage to escape the bowels of mediocrity.
Apr 1, 2013A masterpiece of mediocrity and a crowning achievement in unambitiousness. The Devil's Cartel has sold its soul, not to Beelzebub but to boardroom suits and focus groups.
Mar 30, 2013The odd thing is that while Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel is clearly not a well-executed game, it still manages to be fun with a friend. It's quick, stop-and-pop gameplay with carnage and explosions aplenty. Every awkward moment and terrible line of dialogue is a potential laugh -- or two -- so it's not the worst choice for a weekend rental.
Jun 9, 2013In the end, Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel is a boring, meatheaded slog through about ten or so hours of predictable situations and sub par dialogue, and if someone told me that the development team had simply been handed a bit of cardboard with the words "sink this series" emblazoned across it as a design document, I'd believe it without hesitation.
Apr 4, 2013The sole selling point of Devil's Cartel is the fact that you can blaze through it in a haze of blood and brick dust in the company of somebody else. It's never bad enough to truly offend, but it's never good enough to justify its status as a full-price game.
Apr 5, 2013Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel is not a bad game — just an extremely generic one.

Everything from the amazing customization (masks, load outs, etc.) to the insane destructible environments, provided you use the brutal overkill mode, is just breathtaking. Its not a masterpiece, by any sense, the story and characters are pretty mediocre and there are some graphical glitches throughout. These cons however, are vastly overshadowed by solid controls, equally up to par co-op action, and countless ways to differentiate your T.W.O operative. Overall a great entry in a ridiculously fun series.… Full Review »

On average, homeless men at Helping Up Mission have survived 23 years of addiction, 30 months in jail, and countless nights on the streets. They've endured violence and suffering that destroys not just job stability, but any kind of positive work ethic. Fixing that problem is critical for recovery, and a fundamental goal of the Spiritual Recovery Program.
To prepare our homeless men to succeed in a professional work environment, they receive Work Therapy assignments that contribute to the daily operations of the Mission. Responsibilities include kitchen, laundry, and maintenance duties; transportation, reception, and environmental services; or help with on-site safety and security. These jobs are service-oriented, and provide a degree of vocational skills training.
For Homeless Men, Work Supports Recovery
In order to foster more well-rounded work experiences, Work Therapy assignments may also involve supporting roles in other Mission ministries, like like the Innovative Learning Center, our Program and Chaplain's Offices, or the Outreach department.
Whatever their particular responsibility, this work becomes a source of pride for the men. They help keep "their house" running, gain important job skills, and earn self-respect and fulfillment that comes from a job well done.

First of all sorry that I could not think of a more descriptive title.
What I want to do is the following using only SQL:
I have some lists of strings, list1, list2 and list3.
I have a dataset that contains two interesting columns, A and B. Column A contains a TransactionID and column B contains an ItemID.
Naturally, there can be multiple rows that share the same TransactionIDs.
I need to catch those transactions that have at least one ItemID in each and every list (list1 AND list2 AND list3).
I also need to count how many times does that happen for each transaction. [EDIT] That is, count how many full sets of ItemIDs there are for each TransactionID", "Full Set" being any element of the list1 with any element of the list2 with any element of the list3
I hope that makes enough sense, perhaps I will be able to explain it better with a clear head.
Thanks in advance

Korean Pancake: Pajeon
This easy Korean Pancake Recipe, called Pajun (Pajeon) is loaded with vegetables, served with a spicy soy dipping sauce, and are super kid-friendly.
If you've hung around A Spicy Perspective for more than a few weeks, you probably know I am crazy about global cuisine.
I love experimenting with unique flavor combinations, exotic spices, and classic dishes from places we've traveled.
Well today's dish falls under the none-of-the-above category, but is still dazzling enough to share. *wink*
A Korean Pancake, known as Pajun (Pajeon) is made from a standard savory pancake batter mixed with various fresh vegetables, then are pan-fried to perfection.
There are no "unique" or "exotic" combinations here, unless you find the soy and sesame seeds in the dipping sauce exotic.
And I've never been to Korea. I've only passed through the Seoul Airport heading to other locations.
Nevertheless, my family has a favorite Korean restaurant here in Asheville, and we absolutely cannot visit without ordering the Pajun, Korean Pancakes.
They might be the best things on the menu…
Korean Pancakes are crispy on the outside, soft and moist in the middle, and chock-full of fresh lightly-cooked vegetables.
Now, I know we don't always think of vegetables as kid-friendly, but my two babies beg for Pajun.
We also took a little friend, who
is extremely picky has a delicate palate, to eat Korean pancakes with us and she was crazy over them as well.
So for the last few months my children + one, have been begging me to figure out how to make a Korean Pancake.
Today's recipe is dedicated to Carson, Ava and Paiton, my favorite little Pajeon eaters.
This is actually a very simple recipe.
You whisk up the soy dipping sauce. Beat the pancake batter. Then let the batter rest while you chop up the veggies.
The vegetables should be cut really small, julienne-small, to make sure they cook through. I used my mandoline here to save time.
Assuming you might not own a mandoline, I also used pre-shredded carrots and hash browns, instead of whole potatoes and carrots to cut down on the prep-work.
Then mix in the veggies and fry up the pajun, 4-5 minutes per side.
This is a great make-ahead that can be warmed up in the oven.
They are also really good as leftovers.
Korean Pancake: Pajeon
Yield: 8 servings
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
- 2 cups frozen hash browns, completely thawed
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced julienne
- 1 small zucchini, sliced julienne
- 1 bunch green onions, cut in 1 in. sections
- Pepper to taste
- Vegetable oil for cooking
- 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 minced garlic clove
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- Place all the dipping sauce ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl. Whisk and warm in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, just long enough for the sugar to dissolve. Whisk again and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the flour, water, egg and salt. Set the batter aside to rest.
- Preheat two non-stick skillets to medium high heat. Slice all the veggies julienne (long thin strips) and mix into the batter. Pepper to taste. If the batter still seems very thick after the veggies are mixed in, add 2-3 tablespoons of water and mix well.
- Now add a little oil to each skillet and swirl around. Ladle enough veggie batter into each skillet to completely cover the bottom. Fry for 4-5 minutes, per side.
- Repeat with remaining batter. *Using two 12 inch skillets, you should have enough batter to make 4 large pancakes.
- Cut the Korean pancakes into wedges and serve warm with the dipping sauce.

My friend suffered his first and only nervous breakdown early that morning, shutting himself into his room for most of the next day, unable to speak. We never really talked about it, although occasionally we joked about how he'd suffered a "psychedelic freak-out." I finally asked him about the episode a few weeks ago. He was at a loss to explain what had happened, except to call the experience a "head-on collision with the reality principle" that produced a "radical disjuncture" in his brain.
At the time, his mind simply couldn't grasp the vastness of his alienation from his social peers, people for whom what was happening on the streets was either only a nuisance or held absolutely no meaning at all. By the time I saw myself kicking that door via television 10 years later, I'd aged to the point it was actually exciting to realize the whole thing really was caught on camera. I managed to record the broadcast and eventually wore out the tape showing it to friends and family members, the youngest of whom only knew about the riots thanks to the Sublime song. I married my girlfriend and had a kid, who's 7 now and knows nothing of any of this.
Looking back to April 29, 1992, with the benefit of two decades of hindsight, one thought remains. The revolution my college friend and I had hoped to join by going downtown never happened, but we were just play-acting, anyways, pretending that what we were doing and what was happening was real.
It wasn't. Now we're half a lifetime older, and there's a new generation trying to sort out what it all means while we raise families and worry about our next paychecks amid a global, great depression. Time seems to be running out, and the world is falling apart just fine without us.

Built for downhill racers, freeriders, and dirt jumpers, the Maxxis Welter Weight Mountain Bike Tube provides the durability you need for ripping without feeling like you have iron in your tires. Basically, you can still fling the bike around like it's made of feathers, but you won't be changing pinch flatted tubes every time you overshoot a landing.
Share your thoughts
Felix, Gearhead
Love it.
These are the tubes I buy for my mountain bike regularly. No problems at all. :)
Does what it needs to
- Gender:Female
Got this for my husband, he's had to replace 2 tubes, he hits a lot of thorns when he rides. He's patched one up pretty well and it's still going strong.
Vinny Mauro, Employee
Nice Tube
- Gender:Male
- Familiarity:I've used it several times
Great tube, not a wimpy super light xc tube, but not excessively beefy. Get some!
Quality tube
I have run this tube in my rear tire for about 6 months without incident. How durable is it? Let's just say that I am a 240lb guy who likes to jump curbs, logs, and the occasional roadkill. No incident to date.
Durable tube at an affordable price
These tubes have taken a beating thru the rocks and then some. Glad I went with them!
I have put about 400 miles on these tubes and i couldn't be happier. i ride 5 days a week 20miles a day to get to work and they have held up with my commute and the occasional ride to the bar. If I had to choose a tube that isn't that heavy and will hold up to abuse and for the price that you can get them at I would have to go with these tubes every time.
good strong light weight tube and for the price its awesome
Brian Limoges, ☃bcs_badge_alumni_label☃
Maxxis Welter Weight Tube
These are inexpensive and pretty reliable, however I have gone through a fair amount of them. I bought a dozen to have them. I think next time around I will pick up a slightly burlier tube for lift accessed riding...but for XC and All Mountain these do the trick.
Rich F, Employee
Good tube
A pretty basic tube that works as it's supposed to. I use them primarily around Salt Lake City for XC riding and they're solid.
sage cattabriga-alosa, Sponsored Athlete
if your not running tubeless, this is the tube to use if you like jumping and dh/freeriding.

My first thought was this was natural competition for Duncan Jones'
movie. It'll be interesting to see how that turns out - and tying it to LOTR and Harry Potter is a bit more relevant the nine billion superhero movies that sprout every time I turn my back.

They're just thinking of using the D&D brand for a different movie. There's not much to D&D anyway, it's just vanilla fantasy.
D&D's license covers dozens of different settings, including pretty much any major variety of fantasy one would care to name.
Their most popular setting - Forgotten Realms - is defined as the most vanilla, though, and is the most likely locale for a film.

Any place that has salads to go has the packets of fat free dressing . I buy a half dozen of different kinds and i carry one in my purse so when i go to a restraunt that doesn't have the packs of fat free i get mine out. Saves hundreds of unwanted calories in a years time!
I buy a lovely yogurt-based salad dressing (only 45 calories per 2 tablespoons). When I go out to eat, I put the dressing I need in a small air-tight container. I use it instead of the dressings offered at the restaurant. I save a LOT of calories and there is no guessing!
make salad dressing with mortar and pestle. pound one half clove garlic with course salt. add one tablespoon olive oil. Then mix well with pestle. Add a pinch of sugar and a tiny bit of mustard. Then add 3 large tablespoons of plain yogurt, and two tablesp. vinegar. adjust seasoning
I abhor low cal salad dressings. I wanted to keep the full flavor of my favorite creamy style dressing but not all the calories. In order to give me that ability I measure out 1 tsp of salad dressing, then I dip the tines of my fork in the salad dressing and pick up a bite of salad. I get a taste of my yummy salad dressing in each bite and use no more than a teaspoon of salad dressing, in fact, usually I use less than that!

Snowboards with breaks, really? This is actually a great idea from an Australian company and the boards are set to be used by Thredbo in 2013.
The break helps beginners get over those anxious first few turns on the slopes and looks like a great confidence building tool. It will be interesting to see if any ski schools in Europe adopt these boards over the coming seasons.
We're delighted to announce that when you visit Igluski.com on your phone, you will now enjoy a whole new lovely experience. Here's a whirl through five key features:
1. Helpful Header
At the top of every page you'll see this header. We wanted you to be able to do all the key, useful stuff you already can do from our desktop website without compromising simplicity and clarity. We spent a lot of time crafting this area to get it just right.
At the top, you can search for any words (or phrases) — that's for finding specific pages or words across our site. On the right is the phone number and it's just a tap to give us a call from any page. We were careful with the opening hours too, sometimes they're a bit too dense and cluttered, we've reduced them to this simple one line. You'll notice that when we're closed, this switches to show when we next open. We think on a phone you just want to know the score right now. You can still find the full breakdown on our Contact page.
Underneath those are the three main points of navigation: 1. Search for a holiday, 2. Browse our current deals and 3. Check out the snow. We get all sorts of traffic on our site, but those three things cover the vast majority of requests, so all are an easy tap on every single page.
If you compare it to our existing desktop site, you can see just how much we've reduced it down:
2. It's Beautiful
Modern phones allow us to make the site look truly beautiful. If you've got one of the latest iPhones or Android phones, you'll be treated to wonderful high resolution photos and icons. Afterall, nothing beats a lovely, crystal-clear shot of Chamonix.
And naturally we had to choose a quality font that matches that great look. As phone screens become higher in resolution and quality, it means typefaces that are traditionally used for print now look great on screens too. So if you're on an iPhone, you'll get to enjoy browsing our site in Gill Sans.
There are also plenty of other neat touches around, from subtle dropshadow to soft patterns, giving a really solid and high quality feel as you browse.
3. Speed
On a phone, you've got data speeds and bandwidth to worry about. When you're on a train and browsing with 3G (or — shudder — EDGE), there's nothing worse than a stop-stutter website that's cruising through your data usage. We put a great amount of effort into keeping our site lightweight and quick. Everything (other than photos) is pure code, which means it's quicker to load and it's much more efficient than before.
With a desktop site, you have to support a lot of older browsers and therefore sites often get designed without a lot of the latest technology to make them easier support. With current iPhone and Android phones we were able to make great use of all sorts of better tech, without compromising load times.
Even our logo is pure code — no, seriously:
4. Everything is There
One thing we desperately tried to avoid was removing any useful functionality. A complaint we often hear about mobile sites, is that a missing feature forces people to switch to the desktop site. Although a lot had to change, pretty much everything key is still there. So for example our handy date grid on holidays is too big and unwieldy for a phone, but you can still change dates and airports whilst seeing prices really easily:
On top of that we've made templates for almost every existing page, so even if you find some of our most obscure pages via Google, you'll still end up on a mobile-optimised page with all the content that is present on the desktop page. And if you are struggling to find something specific, just use the search box at the top of every page, or browse the sitemap.
5. Ease
What we've found in testing, is that all key functions of our site are now easier. Since the size of a phone screen is so small, we've been able to focus on distraction-free functionality. So searching and filtering criteria is a cinch, snow forecasts are automatically show on all holidays, enquiring by phone is a single tap and even enquiring by web form is just three simple fields and the type of keyboard automatically changes to help you fill them in sharpish.
It means you can do the same actions quicker and easier than you could before — and it's pleasant to do so.
Unlike an app where you've got to go away to the App Store and downloading something, our mobile site just works. You don't even need to follow a special link, just the next time you visit our site on your phone, it'll all be working nicely for you. Try it and let us know what you think: Igluski.com.
With the kids going back to school today winter is going to be here before we know. With the Freeze Festival less than seven weeks away and the ski season officially arriving in under 100 days, here are five awesome films that are getting us excited about the coming winter.
Jeremy Jones' Further
Jeremy Jones' Further is this year's epic and follows on from Deeper — which was released in 2010. Deeper took us, well, deeper into the mountains and Further promises to, you guessed it, take us further into the mountains. Whether you ski or snowboard you will be able to appreciate the incredible riding and ground-breaking destinations, that Jeremy Jones will take you to, in this film.
Warren Miller's Flow State
Winter officially starts when the Warren Miller tour begins, so it would be rude not to mention this year's offering, Flow State. Flow State will no doubt be filled with incredible lines, inspiring destinations and their renowned thematic approach — this years seem to be about the outer body experience skiing brings for many of us. Polar bears, powder, parks, world class pros and terrifyingly good groms are all in store for you.
Absinthe Films have been making some of the most fun-filled snowboard films for years and Resonance looks like it will follow suit. They balance freeride and freestyle riding seamlessly. Watching Absinthe's films reminds me of days on the mountain with friends and always gets me hyped for my holidays — even if the riding surpasses my wildest dreams and capabilities. You can pretty much guarantee this film will be playing in my chalet the day we arrive!
The Dream Factory
The Dream Factory is another offering from TGR, who made the above Further as well as cracking ski films such as Light The Wick. The Dream Factory promises an atmospheric experience of Alaska's world renowned, filled with incredible lines from this past winter along with a little bit of history and clips from a trip back in '91. Alaska is the reason fat skis were invented and the mountains there never fail to captivate an audience.
If it wasn't for Jake Burton snowboarding would be nowhere near where it is today. The godfather of the sport who backed the likes of Terje and White and whose snowboards, films and riders have inspired generations of snowboarders in the sports short history. With this is mind, 13 has to be on your 2012 hit list.
If this doesn't get you in the mood for winter, well, I don't know what will.
You do not currently have any holidays in your shortlist.
You currently have in your shortlist.

Bethenny Frankel: Husband Jason Hoppy and I Have Had "Major Fights"
Bethenny Frankel will be the first to admit that her marriage to Jason Hoppy hasn't always been smooth sailing.
In a new interview with Self magazine, the super-blunt Bravo star, 41, doesn't deny that she and her love of three years--whom she wed in 2010, after just over a year of dating--have had their share of problems. Still, she says, if she's going to give fans a glimpse of her life via her reality show, Bethenny Ever After, she wants to make sure she's portraying herself--and her relationships--as honestly as possible.
PHOTOS: Follow Bethenny's 15-minute yoga routine
"[Jason and I] have had strains. We've had major fights," Frankel admits. "When I signed on to do this show, I committed to myself and my fans to be totally honest. You cannot show people only the petals and not the thorns. It's not fair to them."
Frankel's commitment to being truthful with her viewers about her marriage extends to all aspects of her life--whatever's happening on-screen is something she's dealing with off-screen as well, she says.

"The minute I got on TV it was like, don't be on TV unless you're not showing who you are," Frankel tells the magazine. "By just being me, I ended up finding this audience that really related to me, and I ended up connecting to them…that is how it all evolved."

text: This chapter argues that popular fiction is best conceived as the opposite of Literature (to which I shall ascribe a capital L, distinguishing it from literature as a general field of writing). The reverse is also true and, in fact, it can often seem as if Literature and popular fiction exist in a constant state of mutual repulsion or repudiation. By Literature, I mean the kind of writing (and let us stay with prose fiction broadly speaking) produced by, for example, Jane Austen, George Elliot, Henry James, James Joyce, William Faulkner - although his novel Sanctuary (1931) has 'many of the ingredients that belong in a thriller' (Glover 2003:143) - Saul Bellow, D.H. Lawrence, Flannery O'Connor, Vladimir Nabokov, Martin Amis - although he has tried his hand at genre fiction with the police procedural novel, Night Train (1998) - Toni Morrison, Michael Ondaatje, Salman Rushdie, Jonathan Franzen, Arundhati Roy, Don DeLillo, Tobias Wolff and so on. The work of some of these writers (e.g. Austen) has certainly been popular, in which case it could reasonably be identified as Popular Literature. Some of these writers may even have written what could be termed 'best-sellers', although this term is quantitatively open: a bestseller can mean sales of anything from around 20,000 copies to several million (after which, we might use the terms 'superseller' or topseller), and some works of Literature, whether it happens over an extended period of time or immediately after publication, can indeed do well in the marketplace. Nevertheless, aside from one or two exceptions to the rule noted above (and there are others), none of these writers has actually produced popular fiction and nor would they wish anyone to imagine that they had. They identify, and are rightly identified in turn, as authors of Literature. Indeed, as we shall see, many of them spend a great deal of time and effort distinguishing themselves from popular fiction and everything it seems to stand for. This is not a criticism of Literature, of course, and it would be a blinkered reader who assumes that this book - even as it speaks up for the reputation of popular fiction - is somehow therefore taking a kind of 'anti-Literature' position. It is simply one way of noting that

Chinese Internet giant Tencent Holdings reports strong second-quarter earnings as online advertising and smartphone gaming revenues grow.
Several health-and-fitness trackers have gone on sale in China, revealing that messaging-app maker's efforts to become a software platform for wearables and eventually "everything."
With a jump of more than 40 million monthly active users since the end of 2013, the mobile messaging app's star appears to be on the rise.
In an ad, messaging app WeChat attempts to show that its services are so human and friendly, they've driven Mark Zuckerberg to a shrink.
Government watchdogs have scrubbed from the Web the accounts of several journalists as Beijing wraps up its annual parliament meeting.
Once again, the tech giant has deleted apps from its App Store over security concerns. This time the culprit is Chinese advertiser Youmi, which used third-party apps developed with its software to mine user data.
The Californian tech giant has removed several apps from its App Store that install root certificates, which potentially allow hackers to view private user information.
The Californian tech giant's senior vice president of worldwide marketing said that Apple will be providing official Xcode software to Chinese developers to avoid another security breach of its App Store.
Haier, an electronics giant, is enlisting sellers through WeChat -- with the incentive of sales commissions. Social selling may be the next big wave.
China's biggest search engine will show its 600 million active users a "Windows 10 Express" install button -- and become the default search option as part of the deal.

I have about 24 "Other Goals" on Spark People. Do I actually accomplish every single goal every day? No! But having so many goals listed there allows me to do two wonderful things: 1) I can read them every day, reminding myself of my ideal day. 2) There are always more than 5 of them that I can honestly check off for having accomplished, thus maximizing my spark points and feeling the glow of accomplishment.
Invest time into others. People who are completely self-focused tend to have more downs than ups.
I find when I talk to others about their goals, I focus more on my goal!
When you encourage others, you not only make them feel good but you feel good and work harder on your goal.104

I have tried using Readline() and data gets dropped, I tried using Read() but I am not sure how to have an error proof method of doing it, since I may get several packets one after another and I have no way of knowing that there is going to be another packet coming in. In between packets BytesToRead is 0, so I can't use it. When reading data to the buffer to you have a timer or put the thread to sleep to allow for all the packets to arrive?
I am lost. Don't know what to try next.
I should mention that I get no guarantee that the string coming off the serial port will be ended with \n or \r or \r\n. I simply need a fool proof way to read ALL the packets that will come from the scale when the user presses PRINT on it.
Someone answered here with the idea I liked - waiting for a certain amount of time for all the packets, but they erased their answer. ANy chance you could re-post it?

Vt., Me., tied for most liberal on convicts votingthe associated press | February 24,2014MONTPELIER Vermont and Maine are tied for being the least restrictive states in the country in terms of allowing those convicted of felonies to vote.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder called earlier this month for the repeal of laws that bar millions of Americans from voting. According to the Pew Charitable Trusts Stateline news service Florida leads in that category with more than 10 percent of its voting-age population disenfranchised.
Vermont and Maine are at the opposite end of the list of states, with no residents barred from voting by virtue of a felony conviction.
Other New England states have some restrictions, with between 0 and 1 percent of their voting-age populations barred from voting due to felony convictions.MORE IN Vermont News
