I really loved the game gun which I ended up playing on the gamecube. If I'm not mistaken, the publisher was Activision, who of course was responsible for the Tony Hawk franchise. Having not played it awhile now I'm not exactly sure what the difference is but there definitely was one. As I like to call it…"The Rockstar thing" I'm not sure what that is other than some sort of navigation/menu/game flow system that is inherent to their games that I really am agitated by. Some common problems throughout the history of video games have been graphics, (unwatchable N64 and PS1) camera controls, (or lack thereof) floaty controls, and too much vs. lack of direction. I never really grew up loving westerns but in the last 7 years or so I was introduced to Clint Eastwood and have since become a fan. This is why Gun piqued my interest, and honestly it was really the only western style game that I knew of at the time, at least since wild gunman that is.
Red Dead has the western thing going for it, ok I'm interested. It has a really nice graphics engine that for the most part runs very smoothly and conveys the realism necessary to engross the gamer. It has pretty good horse controls (Shadow of the Colossus I'm looking in your direction). Combat works nicely on and off the horse, and the cut scenes (for the most part) are done really well. I like that unlockable costumes are tied to quests (always a nice touch) and the in game mini- games (dice and such) are pretty fun.
The map and quest navigation system sucks. I'm not saying hold me by the hand and walk me to each destination. Just throw me something besides text of every single word that has been uttered in the game. This includes useless, repetitive side quest garbage that I'm not interested in but as I ride by on my horse some idiot yells out help me. "Yeah we better log that so the player can remember that oh wait I've already done that a hundred times." I already know what's going to happen and I don't F'ing care. Also, I'm not sure you got the memo but escort missions of helpless idiots ARE NOT F'ING FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What is the point of an "open world" (let's use the term loosely) if all I want to do is warp from objective to objective and not waste my time in the (wait for it) "open world". You might as well just make an "on rails "game and use all the extra time/resources gained to off the idiot who requires you to have f'ing escort missions in your game. By the way, since I don't care about your open world anyway can I please just have the ability to warp from point to point at will and not have to wait for a specific, " open flat space away from roads and towns". I mean how much sense does that make? It's obviously not drawing me into the games realism but rather pointing out the save feature as a glaring mechanic right in the middle of the damn game I'm trying to lose myself in. Don't most people sleep near roads or towns anyway? It seems a hell of a lot safer to me. Also, I don't even remember if you could save in your own "property". It was so damn far away all the time and I couldn't warp to it at will anyway, unless of course I found my flat boring space. Fallout 3 did a really good job of making an open world that I didn't really start warping around in until I had played the game for hours and hours, and at that point it was just from fatigue. Wind Waker….Not so much. Great game, but I was begging for that warp tornado the whole time. Mass effect 2 on the other hand, was essentially an "on rails" game and I didn't even care 'cause it was a so good. Ocarina of time was in theory an "open world" game, but essentially an "on rails" skeleton was hidden beneath (probably why it worked).
For the most part the voice acting was good but I pretty much hated the main character from the beginning (oops, not a good start).
I would have preferred a character creation system with good and evil choices and applicable consequences (see Mass Effect).
The frustrating thing is that I really enjoyed about 75% of this game. The problem is that Gun had a 25% smaller scope and was therefore, in my opinion, a better game. The extra 25% open world nonsense in Read Dead just seemed to dilute the experience. Of course it could have just been the fact that I'm just a Grand Theft Auto/Rockstar hater through and through.

- Understanding how transparency really works
- Creating high-quality, press-ready PDFs
- Building efficient files with graphic styles
Skill Level Intermediate
So we already know that when working with transparency inside of Illustrator, there may be times where during the flattening process, Illustrator is forced to convert some vector artwork into raster artwork and that's mainly due to this rule number two in flattening, where Illustrator is not allowed to change the appearance of our artwork. So in cases, where Illustrator cannot maintain the appearance in vector form, it must choose to rasterize those parts of the file. So if you want to think about it in another way, Illustrator kind of has its arms tied behind its back. It cannot do anything. It must convert those areas to raster region.
However it's important to note that sometimes Illustrator does have the ability to rasterize things just because it feels like it. In fact, if a file is too complex, Illustrator may choose to rasterize parts of your file, simply for performance reasons. Now I like to refer to this as a second level of rasterization. The reason why I actually refer to as that is because there are ways to prevent this from happening altogether. So let's take a closer look at how this actually happens. I have an empty file open on my screen and I'm now going to go to the Symbols panel, and I'm actually going to load some of the symbols that come with Illustrator. When you go down over here to the Nature library, and I have here a symbol here called Trees 2. I'm actually going to drag that here into my Symbols panel to add it to my document.
After this I'm going to go ahead now and close that panel and let's take a closer look at what this symbol is actually made up of. Just drag it here into the screen here and let's zoom in on it. I'll come up here to the Break Link button here inside of the control panel to actually see the anchor points of this particular artwork. Notice over here that the trees are made up of a lot of anchor points. By the way if you want a little tip to find that how many anchor points you actually have in a selection, you can go to the Window menu and choose to open up the Document Info panel. Now the Document Info panel, by default, works with selected artworks. So right now I have it set to Selection Only. So right now it's giving me information about my selection. If I go down this list over here, right now it's providing information about my document, but I would like information about my object.
I can see that now this artwork is made up of 335 paths, all of them which are closed, which is comprised of 2219 anchor points. I'm actually going to leave this Document Info panel open here for a moment. We're going to come back to it soon. I'm going to delete this artwork. I'm going to zoom out over here, and what I'm going to do is I'm actually going to switch over here in my Tools panel to choose the Symbol Sprayer tool. That's going to allow me to select a symbol and spray those symbols out of my page. So I'm going to go ahead and select this particular symbol here that I've added to my document Trees 2. I'm going to start to click-and-drag and spray these on my document. I'm going to do kind of the barbarizing over here and make a lovely little forest just about right over here. I'm going to add just a few more trees to make this even more dense, lovely dense forest right here.
I'm going to switch to a different symbolism tool, which is the one down here called Symbol Screener. I'm actually going to go ahead and click-and-drag a few times to introduce some transparency into these trees. Now switch back to my Selection tool, let me just take a moment to take a look out what we actually have here. I have many overlapping symbols and we know that each of those symbols are made up of lots of anchor points and lots of shapes. Now we also know when I have transparency in my file, the transparency flattening process will now simply break down all those overlapping areas into smaller parts. By the way we refer to those small parts as atomic regions.
So maybe my particular file right now has only about 50 or somewhat symbols inside of them, but we know that each of the symbols themselves are made up of about 330 paths. Now I also know that each of those little overlapping regions will become their own new shapes. So who knows how many paths we'll have now? Will I have thousands or tens of thousands of shapes to work with? So I want to print this file before Illustrator actually flattens the file itself. It may look as a single, Wow! We've got lots of objects here. It will take me a long time to process all that information. To speed up performance Illustrator may decide to identify really complex areas in my artwork and rasterize those areas just to be able to print them faster.
So in this case, it's not that Illustrator is forced to convert areas to raster images, because it has no other way to represent them, instead it's choosing to rasterize them, only because it will be able to process those areas faster. Now we may be able to appreciate getting our printout faster out of the printer, but at the same time you may want to make sure that we have the utmost in quality in keeping our file completely vector, which also means if I save my files in EPS file I want to be able to scale it infinitely after I've already created that EPS file. Well, the good news is that I do have some level of control over this particular process. I do have the ability to tell Illustrator not to rasterize certain areas of my file simply because of performance. How do we do that? If you go to the Object menu here and choose Flatten Transparency, we know that the Flatten Transparency dialog box comes up with all these settings, and these settings here will be able to allow us to control exactly how that flattening process happen. We'll go into detail about everything in this dialog box in the next movie.

Hundreds of happy shoppers celebrated Whole Foods Market opening Wednesday at its Fremont location, joining local dignitaries for a celebratory bread-breaking ceremony at 9:45 a.m. to mark the occasion.
The long-awaited 39,000-square-foot store that broke ground in January at the corner of Mowry Avenue and Paseo Padre Parkway drew Fremont Mayor Bill Harrison and State Senate Majority Leader Ellen Corbett among Whole Foods Market leadership that said a few remarks to officially open the store.
"Whole Foods Market looks forward to being part of Fremont's diverse community, as well as building lasting relationships with local vendors, the business community and residents alike," said Pedro Fonseca, Fremont's store team leader.
The first 250 shoppers received a free gift bag when the store opened at 10 a.m.; the first one was in line at 4 a.m.
Store tour
Less than a week before the store's opening, team members from Whole Foods Market held a "Flavors of Fremont" media and VIP store tour and dinner, kicking off at 4:30 p.m. on Sept. 19.
"We are so excited to open," Store Marketer Lisa Marie Wilson said in opening the brief 35-minute site visit, where she led a dozen people through the location and shared some of the highlights.
Upon entry, customers are greeted with a map of Fremont broken down by district.
"We thought it would be great to have right when you walk in," she said of the map made of reclaimed environmentally friendly materials, emphasizing much of the d cor in the store is just that.
Before beginning to talk about what the store had to offer, Wilson shared a bit of history.
"So Fremont is a long time coming," she said. "Our store is the 39th store in the region, so in Northern California. And all of our stores have their own unique feel to really reflect our community and our customer base."
This includes the employees, which Fonseca said during the tour is made up of 189 members, many of which "are new hires coming from the Fremont community," he said, adding it was an approximately 60 percent ratio versus the 40 percent existing hires.
Whole Foods Market, which Wilson noted as "the world's first certified organic grocer," said "something else that you're going to discover as you walk through the store is we take pride in sourcing locally from our community."
Whole Foods Local Forager Harvindar Singh talked briefly about some of the vendors during the tour.
"Whole Foods Market has these foragers throughout the company and they're kind of like a local buyer," he explained of his role. "I'll scout for local stuff in the community, bring it to our shelves and share it with our customers. É We'll be able to meet some of the growers behind what we're going to have for dinner, so that will be exciting."
The tour continued with stops at sections including the drink bar, complete with a commercial espresso machine, which also offers fresh-made fruit or vegetable juices and smoothies to order; whole body department; produce; 200-plus bulk item section; meat and seafood department; bakery; and prepared foods department, Wilson along the way discussing the quality standards held within all departments that uphold the company's "organic integrity."
Prepared foods are made by a team of in-house chefs, and include a variety of offerings including an extensive salad bar and full-service wok/stir-fry, burrito, pizza and sandwich stations, the latter of which have special creations inspired by the city itself with names including "Lake Elizabeth" and "The Mowry."
"We really want to tie in Fremont to everything that we're doing in our business practices," Wilson said. "So you can have a ÔNiles Canyon' sandwich while you're at lunch."
This sense of connection can be seen throughout the store, including at Mission Peak Tap Alley, which can seat 40 people, which offers seven beers on tap from local breweries in addition to wine by the glass.
"Éwe also hope to become a community gathering spot a place where folks can grab a drink, enjoy some great food and kick up their heels after a busy day," Fonseca said.
Wilson said the city's history was also part of creating the store's facade, noting the red brick and palm trees offering "that old Hollywood feel."
"Niles is a big inspiration in that," she said.
Inside the city's background and demographic was also incorporated into many of the design aspects, Wilson said in noting vibrant colors and worldly fixtures that were influenced from the diversity here.
"There was an influence of Moroccan, there was an influence of Middle East, roots from IndiaÉ" she said. "I feel like there is real warmth in the color palette that shows."
"Flavors of Fremont"
Afterward, during a reception and dinner, Singh talked further about a few local vendors whose foods were incorporated into a multi-course meal at the Patterson House at Ardenwood Historic Farm Regional Park.
"This has been an incredible experience opening this store as a forager because it's not too often that you run into some urban farms that are located within miles from the store," he said, first noting J.E. Perry Farms Produce, whose farm is next to Ardenwood.
"They have this beautiful 90-acre certified organic farm," Singh said. "ÉSo having this gem right next door and five miles from the store, for a forager that's heaven because these guys don't have a packing house, they don't have refrigeration. Everything is from the field and delivered to the store. So when you're going to get their cauliflower É everything is going to be delivered fresh that morning to the store."
The first course featured such produce, prepared in curried cauliflower bisque with scallion oil and crispy leeks.
Then 20 miles away in Sunol is 18 acres of certified organic land, managed by SAGE, featuring six growers including Chan Saelee of Iu-Mien Village Farms whose strawberries will also be sold at Whole Foods. Foolish Hens Farm founders Aspen Kvicala and Suzanne Allcroft, who are also located there, attended the dinner, which also featured flower bouquets provided by them on each of the tables. These are also now available at the Fremont store.
"These are just some of the stories, some of the gems that I found in the area," Singh said, also noting Hillcrest Ranch Sunol, whose olive oil was featured in the second course: poached prawns on late summer corn ragout with chanterelle mushrooms, heirloom tomatoes, fine herbs and truffle oil. The produce in that course was once again from J.E. Perry Farms.
"These are really great stories, organic products and it's all going to be at whole foods," Singh said. "ÉAs you guys enjoy your meal we'll get some of the vendors to share their stories."
Doug Perry kicked off with a short one about his family history in the Fremont farming community.
"We do a lot of vegetables here; mostly lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower," he said. "My mom and dad started Perry farms, well my grandfather before him, and they've built a wonderful business that they've handed down to my nephew and I. It's a beautiful place to work. It's a sight to behold coming in in the morning, driving up to this environment. It makes the long day worthwhile."
His father was also in attendance at the dinner, to which Doug Perry nodded in thanks for all he has done for the family business.
"My dad's 81 and I don't know what I would do without him because he's still a very big part of this operation," Doug Perry said.
Joe Pozzi of Pozzi Ranch Lamb which was featured in the main course: Moroccan spiced rack of lamb with red quinoa pilaf, green bean saut , dried fruits and lamb reduction then spoke about his experience as a fourth-generation farmer from the North Bay, in western Sonoma county.
"My family emigrated there in the late 1890s and my daughter's fifth (generation) and wants to carry this tradition on," he said.
Pozzi continued: "As Harv mentioned, the land is what it's all about for me. These lambs are wonderful and I hope you enjoy the product that we presented here tonight, the animals are the ones that carry us, but it's that land that we pass from generation to generation that we always stress on how we want to take care of it, how we want to enhance it and not just for production. Production is obviously vital when you're in a business, but it's also the resources that we have on those lands. É and how you coexist with the natural resources. É So you try and work with the animals and what we have out there to bring a product."
Dinner closed with dessert, rooibos chai infused poached pear with saffron ice cream and tea syrup featuring Golnazar Gourmet Ice Cream.
Mitra Golnazar shared the story about her family business, which began with her dad's recipe about 60 years ago in Tehran before she brought the company to San Ramon in 2006, and excitement in the Fremont Whole Foods' opening.
"I am very, very excited about the new location opening," she said. "ÉIt's the best thing happening for our product because of the community, the people who are going to be working there, customers are going to have a lot more knowledge than any other area."
Rob Twyman, president of Whole Foods Market Northern California and Reno, closed the event in what he said was the company's way of ending gatherings: appreciations.
The thanks was far and wide, including those who helped prepare the food that evening to the team members there; Robson Homes, who developed the property; and many dignitaries including Fremont City Councilman Vinnie Bacon, City Manager Fred Diaz, Cindy Bonior as the Fremont Chamber of Commerce president and chief executive officer along with Director of Member Services KK Kaneshiro.
"I would like to single out and put highest appreciation to Mayor Harrison," Twyman said. "You have been such a great partner with us. É I don't know that I've ever seen such a great partnership and such an incredible engagement level from the highest office in this city as we've gotten, so thank you so, so much for your partnership."
He concluded: "We're going to be open in less than a week and I think I can speak for everybody here we're absolutely ecstatic, super excited about this and we could not have done it if not for the amazing support from everybody here, everybody in this community. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts."

SSDD.Talk about deja-vu. Same old crap so far in the transfer market regarding a goal-scorer.Yet again we scratch around in the bargain bins.We get linked with top players and get he usual 'wage demands' and 'overpriced' thrown back at us by the gaffers and the board.While I think we will survive this season (by the skin of our teeth) it's not exactly what I want to see at Stans.I know last seasons 9th was a bit of a fluke and never thought we would do it again, but I am at a loss at some of the team selections made this season. I mean, 1-1 at WHU, them down to 10 men and we change to 4-4-2 with three minutes to go and 2-1 down. Fcuking incredible!One man up front is not the answer. I don't know...perhaps Jerome (Nigel's mate) and Derbyshire upfront. Who knows, it might work.Back to topic, why do we continuously tell the press we are signing so and so, then watch in disbelief as it drags on and on then we end up with another Bent or Zigic on our hands.FFS.KRO.
icant beleive we keep playing a lone striker it doesnt work, we cant rely on defenders goals to win us games. Derbyshire is a great little striker and needs a run in the starting 11 but with jerome or zigic for him to play off and with bentley providing quality balls into them i think we would score more goals but derbyshire cant do it on his own. for everyone to get excited about us bringing in a couple of strikers well past their sell by date is mad, look at the vile they have bitten the bullet and got themselves a quality striker in bent but quality costs and you get what you pay for thats why until the blues board dig a little deeper we should give the strikers we have a chance to shine( if they aint playing they aint gonna score) SIMPLES!!!KROSOTV

You should report them to your state's attorney general. Fraud is a serious crime. If, as I suspect, you missed payments, made payments late or made partial payments over the course of the loan, this is what happens. You wouldn't have needed to go with Santander, a known "dead beat" lender, if you hadn't had a poor credit history.
With your history and now this Ripoff Report, you're fated to have this same result in your future.

Debra Lannon, an experienced fundraiser and long-standing member of the Johns Hopkins community, has been appointed the associate dean of external affairs for the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences. Effective June 4, she will lead the Krieger School's development, stewardship, and communications efforts.
Lannon began her career at Johns Hopkins in 1987 at the then-School for Professional Studies in Business and Education before moving to the Whiting School of Engineering in 1989, where she rose to director of development. While at Whiting, she secured numerous gift commitments, including the Rome Deanship. In 2009, Lannon moved to the Office of the Vice President, where she worked on special projects and served as interim associate dean for development and alumni relations for the Berman Institute of Bioethics, the Bloomberg School of Public Health, and the School of Nursing.
Most recently, Lannon has been managing the Krieger School's transition period between associate deans. "During this process, we realized that Deb is perfectly suited for the position," says Dean Katherine Newman. "She brings a deep understanding of Johns Hopkins and the Homewood schools, strong management skills, and a passion for the mission of the school. Deb has exceptional judgment and a level of integrity and professionalism that allows her to build and sustain outstanding relationships both internally and externally."
Lannon says she is pleased to be filling the associate dean position on a permanent basis. "In the months that I've held the interim position at the Krieger School, I have been so impressed with the expertise of the faculty and also with the many innovative initiatives underway. I look forward to working closely with Dean Newman and others as we plan and carry out the upcoming capital campaign."

I RECANT my earlier post! this product is super!
By evanaca
from New York, NY, United States
This is a followup on my initial post where I complained about the quality and output of this product. It's been couple of months since I bought the small and mighty washer, and have been using it almost daily. All the previous concerns are gone now - the unhinged spring has been reattached, I added the 'jet spray' (or whatever the name is) cleaning aid, turned on the 'heat dry' option - and everything works like a charm. Quiet, fast, clean, and takes in plenty of dishes for a household of two (no need to run it every day). Yes, I would recommend this product, my faith in GE is partially restored :-), and I am glad I bought this product. Plus, as someone said in their review, it is so cute!

Great Dishwasher
By oldwhit13
from Oakland, OR
We had a space problem! This unit solved it. We have always used full-sized dishwashers so were concerned that this one would be too small. But we just had a family of six staying with us for a week and it worked well. Excellent wash, easy to use, good use of water. It does seem kind of expensive compared to a regular size unit but the price is in line with other compact dishwashers. We like it!
This is a very good dishwasher for the space!
By JD45
from Brooklyn, NY, USA
This is a very good dishwasher for the little size. I love the silverware basket - organizes them well for great cleaning. I've had it for a week and everything is getting clean. May be a little noisy at times during the wash, but very tolerable. It is a nice replacement for a broken one and installation was under an hour.
iT'S SO CUTE !

Perfect for small apartments!

The size of this dishwasher gave me 6 extra inches of much needed cabinet space. It fits perfectly in my apartment and performs as expected. I am pleased with this appliance.

I like the quiet feature of the dishwasher and it is easy to load. Of all of the smaller size washers, this has been the easiest to use and clean up after. A little window cleaner once a week and it stays looking like new!
