January is National Stalking Awareness Month. Stalking is a serious crime that affects 3.4 million adults in the U.S every year. This campaigns aims to raise awareness of stalking so that more can be done to stop it.
Launched in 2004 by the stalking Resource Center, National Center for Victims of Crime and the Office on Violence Against Women, each January communities across the country hold events and share resources to educate the masses and help raise the profile of stalking.
The Stalking Awareness Month website is jam-packed with resources to help you get involved and do your part in the fight against it. Visit the website to download posters, letterheads, fliers, a factsheet, get social networking updates and take a stalking quiz.
"You have the power to help know, name and stop stalking in your community"
Angry School staffers and elected officials will hold a demonstration this afternoon outside Bronxdale High School in the Bronx to call for the Principal's immediate removal following his outrageously sexually explicit comments to a female staff member in July.
Principal John Chase Jr. was reported to have made several inappropriate statements to female co-workers concerning a new photocopier. According to members of staff concerned he said:
"Have you seen the new copy machine? It does everything. It even has a hole in it where you can stick your d— in it and get a b— job."
Following an investigation by the Education Department's Office of Equal Opportunity, Chase, who earns $132,633 a year, was issued with a disciplinary letter in his personal file and was urged to undertake sensitivity training.
But for some co-workers this was not sufficient. One staff worker told the New York Daily News:
"The fact that he's not being fired is insane. People are very uncomfortable around this guy. He needs to go."
In a letter from State Sen. Jeffrey Klein (D-Bronx) to city Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott, Klein urges Walcott to remove Chase. He wrote:
"The mere fact that he was found guilty of sexual harassment undermines his authority as head of the school."
But Walcott is set on leaving Chase in charge, saying:
"I'm not going to remove him, but he knows he cannot have any similar type of comments. He is on a very strict line as far as his behavior."
Chase declined comment.
The rally is set to start at 3.30 today at 925 Astor Avenue, in the Bronx. The Daily News estimates 250 supporters to show, along with politicians Jeff Klein, Naomi Rivera and Jimmy Vacca.
Alcohol abuse and underage drinking are certainly problems faced by many teenagers and young adults across the U.S. We've all learned about the effects of excessive alcohol consumption in health class. With excessive drinking comes a decrease in motor skills, negative health effects on the liver, judgment impairment and the possibility of alcohol poisoning. We've also been taught that we should always watch our drinks at parties and to never leave our drinks unattended so that no one slips unwanted drugs or substances into our drinks. A new ad by the Pennsylvania state liquor board tries to warn young adults against alcohol abuse by linking excessive drinking with date rape. The ad was eventually pulled after an influx of criticism though.
Yes, that is a real ad that was OK'ed by a government agency to be run as part of the "Control Tonight" online campaign against alcohol abuse.
Not only is this ad very, very racy, but it also does nothing more than blame rape victims (who may have been drinking) for the trauma they suffered. Yes, drinking excessively can severely impair judgment and lead to regrettable mistakes. Yes, alcohol abuse can lead to a decrease in awareness of surroundings, making it easier for someone to slip date rape into your drink. And these are issues that must be addressed. But if someone is sick enough to slip date rape into a person's drink and then rape him or her, it's far from the victim's fault that she or he couldn't say no.
If Rape is an intentional choice on the part of the rapist, especially if the choice to use date rape drugs is involved. The PA state liquor board should be running ads that tell people to abstain from rape (or they could end up in jail), not telling women that it'll be their fault they are raped while trying to have a fun and enjoyable night out. The fact that this ad even ran just goes to show how we really do live in a society that teaches, "Don't get raped," rather than, "Don't rape."
Beyond the victim blaming, this ad doesn't account for the legality of having sex with someone who is intoxicated. The law states that you cannot consent to sex if you've been drinking. That's the bottom line, no ifs, and's or buts. If you have sex with someone who has been drinking, that's rape and you could go to jail for it. Maybe we should be running ads with a picture of someone being put in the back of a police car and big, white, capital letters saying, "Sober consent: the only real and legal way to say 'yes' to sex."
Finally, this ad makes it seem like only women are date raped and only women could possibly make irresponsible sexual choices while drinking. Date rape is not gender neutral. I've personally known men who've been slipped date rape while out drinking and I've known men who've been raped while drunk. Furthermore, rape is not only a problem in heterosexual relationships, but it is also an issue in gay and transgender relationships. Perhaps ads need to be more all-inclusive in order to make a real impact.
Date rape drugs, lack of consent during sex, rape and alcohol abuse are all pervasive problems that need to be tackled via a massive public education campaign and other initiatives. But we have to target the source of the problem when it comes to each of these issues. That is, people should be taught: Respect people enough to not slip drugs into others' drinks; Consenting to sex while intoxicated is not consent at all; And rape is—to put it as simply as possible—bad.
Greetings Hollaback friends, activists and supporters!
As a mighty Phoenix rising up from the ashes of 2011, ignited with the blaze of activism, we have burst through the beginnings of 2012 with the tenacity and fervor that we mean to continue with. 2011 was awesome but 2012 will be super-out-of-this-freakin'-world-awesome!
We have started 2012 with 25 new sites raring to go from all over the globe stretching from Auckland, New Zealand to Glasgow, Scotland, training is due to start on January 14th and will take roughly about three months to complete, so we'll keep you posted!
Last month we successfully launched sites in Winnipeg, Canada and Chennai, South India. With the launch of the Chennai site, Hollaback! gained international press coverage from online media platform 'The Alternative', which seeks to document and support social development in India.
Following the devastating murder of Keenan Santos and Reuben Fernandez in October last year for defending the honor of their girlfriends in the face of street Harassment, Hollaback Mumbai started the petition: Demand Justice for Two Men Killed Trying to Stop Street harassment. The petition has 2,313 signatures so far, but we need 10,000! So get clicking for justice Hollabackers.
On Thursday we said a very tearful goodbye to our intern extraordinaire Amalia Sirica. Here's a big shout out and massive thank you for all the awesomeness and hard work that you have done for Hollaback! Enjoy Brazil!
AND to my utter astonishment I have been named as one of The Daily Muse's Women to Watch in 2012. Woop woop! Although, it is my name on the award it could not have been possible without the volunteers, the donors, board members and all the sassy hollabackers that are helping the revolution grow and grow! Thank you so much!
Be sure to tune in next Friday for weekly updates of the Hollaback! movement around the world, change making activism and street harassment news.
Thank you for all your support– and keep holla'ing back!
Holla and Out!!!
By using the Universal Declaration of Human Rights there may be no confusion as to whether Street Harassment is a Human Rights issue. Article 1 states:
"All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood."
By telling a woman she has " a great rack", calling a gay man a "fucking faggot", or removing one's penis from its appropriate abode in public is not behaving in the "spirit of brotherhood", not by any stretch of the imagination. Street Harassment is a Human Rights issue.
Article 2:
"Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status."
"Everyone" includes women and LGBTQ individuals, everyone has the right to express themselves freely in public spaces without fear of abuse from strangers. A transgender person has the right to identify his or herself in the way that feels natural to them, as a woman has the right to dress as she pleases without threat or aggravation. Street Harassment is a Human Rights issue.
Article 3:
"Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person."
Women and LGBTQ individuals have the right to live and express themselves in public spaces without worry of being badgered, stalked, flashed, groped, abused, whistled at, masturbated at or raped. Street Harassment is a Human Rights issue.
Article 5:
"No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment."
Calling a transgender person 'it' a 'tranny' or a 'heshe' is inhumane, degrading, torturous and cruel. Physically attacking a gay person because of their sexual orientation is inhumane, degrading, torturous and cruel. Putting your hand up a woman's skirt on the subway is inhumane, degrading, torturous and cruel. Street Harassment is a Human Rights issue.
Perpetrators of Street Harassment may argue that it is their human right to express themselves freely, but at this point it is relevant to refer 'spirit of brotherhood' cited in Article 1, the connotations of brotherhood do not include any form of abuse be it physical or verbal. Street Harassment is unquestionably a Human Rights issue.
Question answered. Revolution Started.
Check out this short anti-street harassment film from Egypt by Cairo students Merna Karam, May Kassem and Mirna Makary. It is so awesome to see courageous ladies raising awareness of street harassment all over the world, for every person that takes a stand several more are sure to follow, so let's keep talking about it, educating people and speaking out against it.
We need a Hollaback! in Egypt! You have the power to end street harassment, start a Hollaback! in your area today.
Meet Natalie Warne, an awe-inspiring young lady from humble beginnings who achieved the impossible with spirit, determination and a shed load of Red Bull.
In the following video Natalie speaks about her struggle to run a successful campaign for the Invisible Children Project, the movement that seeks to end the conflict in Uganda and prevent the abductions of children for use as child soldiers. She modestly touches upon how she gained national recognition and the attention of Oprah Winfrey. As a result, President Obama signed a bill in Congress that would apprehend those responsible and fund the recovery of the affected areas.
Warne pays tribute to the selfless vigor of "anonymous extraordinaries" that seek neither fame nor recognition but only hope for change and revolution. The 20-year-old urges young people everywhere to listen to the fire in their belly and let nothing stop them from changing the world.
Here is the video. Warning: You will Cry.
I always like to start the New Year with plenty of laughs, so 2012 brought me the pompous, misogynistic, racist, not to mention archaic inner thoughts of Texas Representative and more scarily potential Presidential candidate, Ron Paul, in the form of his 1987 book "Freedom Under Siege: The US Constitution 200-Plus Years".
The book is punctuated with several million "say what?!" moments that are guaranteed to leave you speechless.
Firstly, take a look at Paul's stand on sexual harassment in the workplace:
"Employee rights are said to be valid when employers pressure employees into sexual activity. Why don't they quit once the so-called harassment starts? Obviously the morals of the harasser cannot be defended, but how can the harassee escape some responsibility for the problem? Seeking protection under civil rights legislation is hardly acceptable. If force was clearly used, that is another story, but pressure and submission is hardly an example of a violation of one's employment rights. "
So, if a colleague comments that you have 'nice rack' in the dulcet tones of a Tony Bennett sound-a-like it's fine, in fact, but if it does upset you then you should just leave the company! What brilliant advice! If only Anita Hill had thought of that. If that is not enough to make you take to the streets shouting "Ron Paul is a prize plonker," then more interesting is Mr. Paul's take on equal pay:
"The concept of equal pay for equal work is not only an impossible task."
End of conversation. Next the debate on whether "women have the right to join men's clubs. What do you think Mr. Paul?
"Women obviously have a right to apply for membership in any group they wish, and a club has a similar right to exclude anyone it wishes."
Paul goes on to use an example of a woman that sued the Boy Scouts because she 'claimed' she had a right to be a Scout Master:
"Women may want to be scout masters, but where did they get this "right" to coerce a private organization to change its rules regarding members and leaders?"
In one fell swoop Ron Paul managed to offend and alienate just about everyone, from AIDS victims to the computer age, what an achievement! And he is a possible presidential candidate?
For your delectation I have selected some more choice lines from the liberal fearing Mr. Paul:
1. "Physicians are sued for less than normal children."
2. "The twentieth century has delivered a society totally void of standards."
3. "Liberal theologians promote worldwide socialism and even communism in the name of love, human dignity, and rights, while fundamentalists retaliate by offering economic prosperity for those who believe in the literalness of the biblical message and contribute appropriately."
4. "Young people, as a result of the welfare ethic accepted today, are not disciplined in the work ethic."
5. "Every year new groups organize to demand their "rights." White people who organize and expect the same attention as other groups are quickly and viciously condemned as dangerous bigots."
6. "The Computer Age is now upon us, and this technology could easily eliminate completely the privacy that should be cherished by all freedom- loving individuals."
7. "The individual suffering from AIDS certainly is a victim – frequently a victim of his own lifestyle – but this same individual victimizes innocent citizens by forcing them to pay for his care."
8. "To the majority of Americans, the concept of responsibility for one's own actions, has been replaced by the belief that someone else must pay those who demand a handout."
In Ron Paul's defense, when questioned by ABC's This Week's Jake Tapper he replied:
"There were some very bad sentences put in. I did not write those, I did not review them. It was an error on my part."
Is Ron Paul saying that he did not read his own book? Now who is relinquishing responsibility?

Sitting on a street cafe, sipping my latte in trendy and cultured Central London on a hot summer's evening, I thought it couldn't be any better. I paused from reading my novel to admire the smells, sights and noises of the streets – only to find a group of young men, dressed in jeans and brash confidence, staring at me from the opposite side of the street.
I blinked, turned away and automatically pulled down the hem of my knee-length blue summer dress; not exactly provocative, but even when wearing something revealing is no excuse for sexual harassment, it was my first instinct. I tried to ignore them, but out of the view of my peripheral vision, I could see them still gawking.
My breathing quickened as I glanced at them, and saw them crossing the street and coming towards me. I stopped, to find the cocky ringleader demand my number, claiming that he saw me "checking him out" and that I want him. I calmly said no, but was taken aback; he knocked my chair back so that my dress flew up, displaying my underwear, which his friend caught an image of on his phone. They heckled and sauntered away. Another young man sat near me helped me up, and then chased down the street for the gang! He pushed the ringleader into a wall and warned him never to do anything like that again. They left sulkily.
The kind young man returned to the cafe, making sure I was alright. Seeing that this was the example all men should follow as he was such a gentleman, I fell in love and we got married a few years later 🙂

Using his home state of Kansas as the model and focal point, Frank asks rhetorically why it is that Kansans so willingly espouse right-wing social issues (creationism, defunding public schools, prayer in schools, pro-life) while simultaneously allowing their state to become economically devastated by Republican free market policies of unfettered, unregulated capitalism. In other words, why do Kansans (and many other Red Staters) vote consistently against their pocketbooks, against their own economic self-interest?
With great specificity, Frank illustrates these behaviors and their devastating economic consequences by describing individuals and communities in Kansas. These are some of the strongest parts of his book, since they demonstrate through real people and real towns how life has changed, and continues to change, under Republican conservative rule. If anything, Frank could use more of these examples, particularly more description of some of the small towns and communities in his state that are dying a slow and tortured economic death. Regardless, the examples given convey the sense that Kansans are voting Red even as they vote themselves economically dead.
Frank correctly ascribes this seemingly self-contradictory behavior to the idea that Conservatives have discovered a means to incite permanent "backlash" among the Red Staters through culture wars.Read more ›
Frank wants to explain a dilemma. On the one hand, the Republican Party has embraced a set of policies and enacted a wide range of legislation that hurts most Americans economically and provides a benefit to only a very small segment of the American population. Statistics provided by the Fed and the IRS have documented over the past twenty-five years a sharp and dramatic concentration of wealth in the upper one percent of the population. For instance, in 1979 20% of the national wealth as defined by the Federal Reserve was concentrated in the top 1%, while in 1997 39% was, and with the three rounds of Bush tax cuts focused on primarily benefiting the wealth and our largest corporations, it is not hard to imagine that that figure might have climbed to 45% or higher. And yet Americans continue to vote for members of a party that seems to be dedicated to intensifying that trend (a large number in the GOP are now talking about a national sales tax and eliminating the income tax-as opposed to Europe, which has a value added tax but also a tax on the wealthy, which is not what is being suggested here-which would dramatically increase this shift of wealth away from the middle class). How is this possible?Read more ›
Where the book doesn't quite deliver as well is in its central thesis. The main question: why do working-class Americans in the Midwest consistently vote conservative, against their economic interests? Frank certainly provides ample evidence that they ARE indeed voting against their economic interests. He also argues, convincingly, that they're really voting on "cultural" issues like abortion, gun control, school prayer, evolution in classes (as opposed to the richer moderate Republicans who vote on economic issues). But he doesn't explain the following question. If the ground-level politics of Kansas have inverted over the past hundred years, then something must have persuaded the everyday working-class voter that voting on "culture" is more important than voting on economics. What was it that persuaded them? Franks never really answers this question. And that's what I want to know!

So I am new to this oven, really haven't even used it yet . . .but here are my few gripps. If you have installed this youreself like myself, you may comment like me. The bottom rack hook up, weird and difficult, may take you 3-4 times before it doesn't fall off. Oven will not work if you have the back side regulator switch in the wrong position. And last, why the heck can't they put in a few blips of info on the stupid square LED on on the panel, just above the convect oven button in the manual. No where does it say what the square tells you or what it is there for. Does it tell you the oven temp by raising the bar a lttle bit higher as the temperature raises???? What, What, What does it do??? So did I buy the right oven range? Time will tell, but I feel I am not off to a good start. Honestly, I can't wait to start cooking on it and enjoying all the features it has. I'll check back in and let you know how it goes later. Cheers. JA

The stains are very dull looking and I never use abrasives. Makes my stove look dirty.

Dating Q&A: Figuring Out Women
Renee Piane is a reputed dating expert and personal coach on the dating scene. She is the author of Love Mechanics , which provides "Power Tools" for men in the competitive game of love. Featured in The Wall Street Journal as one of the eight resources for single men in America, people seek her advice on television shows, radio shows, print magazines, and newspapers. We now bring her sought after advice to AskMen.com. Enjoy.
tired of her ex talkDear Love Mechanic,
I've been dating a beautiful woman for some time now. She is the most incredible woman I have ever met. Unfortunately, there is one problem with our relationship — every single day for the past six months, she has mentioned an ex-lover, boyfriend, one-night stand, etc...
When we go out with friends, she has to tell stories about past boyfriends. I am getting sick of it. By the way, I never bring up past relationships in conversation. Can you give me some advice on dealing with this situation?
Sick of Exes,
Dear Brian,
It's quite possible that your girlfriend may still be dealing with the past. There is something to be learned from hearing about her dating history, yet you must make it known that you don't want her to discuss these old relationships in public from now on.
A women that has to tell old tales may have a deep need for attention. She may be telling these stories to subtly let you know that she is desired by other men. You have to tell her that you have heard enough and now it's time to start from here with you. Plan an evening alone to chat openly about this. Ask if she still has "Passengers Remaining in Her Vehicle" or needs to complete a relationship with someone. Find out why she is constantly bringing up these past relationships.
Does she have residual anger that she needs to resolve with men from her past? Has she considered how her casual conversations from the past might make you feel? These questions will reveal some hidden feelings that may clear up her unhealthy "ex" condition. Express yourself openly. Give her a chance to vent and listen.
If she's certain about being in a relationship with you, she will want to hear your truth and honor your requests. She may not realize what she is doing and might think you don't mind since you haven't said anything. The relationship will grow stronger once you speak honestly and perhaps some of her fears will dissolve. Good luck.
should guys be nice or not?Dear Renee,
I can't really understand the fine print when in a relationship with a woman. Should I pay a lot of attention to her, compliment her and listen to her (be sensitive to her needs, in short), and risk losing her? In your columns, you say that women need these things.
But at the same time, other experts say that if I give women all of these things, even half of the time, I will become less challenging and won't be able to keep a woman (it takes away that male mystique, after all). So I'm really confused.
What do you think a guy's code of conduct should be at all times toward his true love? Should he always be shadowed by the thought of over-pampering her, over-caring, and being there too often?
Thank you so much,
Wanting to Understand
So what should he be doing?

Score 0
Thread Details
Welcome to the new Target & Super Target deals thread!
Please read this post and the wiki before posting and/or asking questions. Thanks!
We have been told to not distribute pre-generated coupons; most are available at coupons.target.com.
Please keep all OT and chit chat to a minimum. For anything that is not deal-related, please join us here at the Target Chit Chat thread, in the ever-popular SD Lounge for lighthearted chit chat that may or may not be related to Target.
Target Thread Rules:
- Do not ask (even in a covert way) for any coupon that has been scanned or discuss any coupon that is not used for its intended purpose. This goes for ALL scanned � this is what ALTERED means � this will cause this thread to shut down, per Moderator warning.
- Do not post directly to Ebay auctions. It is considered self-promotion because the mods don�t have a way to verify if you are the seller or not.
- Do not discuss or promote unethical and/or illegal activities with coupons or GCs (i.e. using expired coupons, using fake coupons, etc). Do not post expired coupons. Do not discuss ways to use expired manufacturer�s coupons (Clarification of this rule can be found here.)
- Do not discuss ways to misuse the true intent of a manufacturer coupon.
- Target.com has changed to the E-Centives coupon printing system where you have to download special software that keeps track of what you printed, like bricks coupons. The coupons print out directly to your printer. The manufacturer coupons printed from the Target.com website can NOT be posted here as they have a unique serial number above the right hand barcode. Target coupons printed from sites such as RedPlum are also now individually encoded and can NOT be posted here as well. If a Target coupon (such as those currently from Target.com) is not individually coded, it can be posted here.
- In keeping with SD rules, multiple per pages (MPPs) must be hosted off site, such as with google docs.
- Finally - Mod Alert any fighting! The mods would rather catch it in the beginning, versus going back 5 pages to see what happened.

Quote :Dear Target Guest,
Thanks for writing back regarding our coupon acceptance at Target. When a coupon states one per purchase, and you have more than one, you can use one coupon per item, as each item is considered a purchase and not a transaction.
We always welcome your questions, so if we can assist you in the future, please contact our Target Guest Relations team at (800) 440-0680. You can also speak with a team member at the Guest Services Desk at your local Target store, or visit us on Target.com. Either way, we're here to help!
Thanks for shopping with us. I hope we'll see you again soon at Target.

Other Target Information
1. Mark Down Schedule - Please note that the list may not be entirely accurate, as some stores have reportedly made changes to this schedule and other stores may be days (or weeks) behind schedule!
- Monday - Electronics, Kids Clothing and Stationary (Cards, GiftWrap, etc.)
- Tuesday - Domestics, Women's Clothing, Pets and Market (food items)
- Wednesday - Men's Clothing, Toys, Health and Beauty, Lawn & Garden items
- Thursday - House Wares, Lingerie, Shoes, Sporting Goods, Movies, Music, Books, Decor and Luggage
- Friday - Auto, Cosmetics, Hardware, & Jewelry
- 50% off day after holiday for three days
- 75% off fourth day after holiday for three days
- 90% off seventh day after holiday for 1-2 days.
- Target price adjustments can be done for 14 days (excluding clearance). If you purchase an item and it goes on sale within the next 2 weeks, you can take your receipt to Customer Service for a price adjustment.
- If an item you want is out of stock, there should be a little tear off pad with rainchecks. You tear one off and take it to the cashier, tell them the quantity you want, and they will print a raincheck. Please note, current rainchecks do not have a barcode and when you go to use a raincheck, the cashier has to manually type it in rather than scanning a barcode.
- Target.com has switched to using E-Centives coupon printable software that limits and tracks the number of coupons you print and Target coupons can no longer be printed at the in store kiosks because of this.
6. Missed Coupon Policy
- Target stores will now match prices of other stores with a physical ad of the competing store. Please refer to their official price match policy at their website here [target.com].
8. Out Of Stock Items
- If an item is out of stock (OOS) on both the shelf and the backroom and needs to be ordered from the warehouse, there will be a small gray dot sticker on the shelf price tag of the item. If there is no gray dot on the shelf price tag, enter the DCPI number into an updated price check scanner to check back room stock of the item. If your store has the old style of scanners, ask a team member to check the stock of the item for you.
9. Contacting Guest Relations
- (800) 440-0680
- firstname.lastname@example.com
- Questions, Comments and/or Complaints about Target/Super Target and/or Team Members.
- When sending a Team Member compliment and/or complaint, keep in mind that ETL's get share-pay bonuses, while Team Members don't. Stores are responsible for store-controlled things like clean restrooms and sales floors, carts and hand baskets available, response time to the jewelry and electronics counters and Guest call buttons, etc. Also, use a different E-mail/name each time, else after 2-3 complaints they just refer you to the Store Team Leader (STL).

New to couponing? Please read hawaiiandawn's thread - New Q Shoppers, Don't be Scared! You Can Do This!!
New to the thread? Please read:
1) Target puts out their own coupons on their website. You can combine Target coupons and use them with manufacturer's coupons. So if you have a Target coupon for Heinz Ketchup for $1.00, and a manufacturer's coupon for Heinz Ketchup for $1.00 - you are allowed to use them both together and get $2.00 off your ketchup purchase. So check Target's website, I think they put up new coupons every other weekend.
2) You can also find Target coupons in the newspaper. If they aren't in your newspaper, check e*bay and coupon clipper sites - do a search for "Target coupons" and see what comes up. You can also combine these with manufacturer's coupons. Right now there are Target insert/newspaper coupons for $2.00 off Kotex items and there are manufacturer's coupons for $1.00 or $.50 off Kotex items. This makes some of the Kotex items FREE.
3) Check your coupons and make sure that they don't say "excludes trial items" on them. If they don't, you should be able to use them on trial items, potentially getting them FREE. (This varies from store to store, some stores will refuse you.) Not long ago, there were $1.00 Tide detergent coupons, and you could use them on the Tide trial sizes which were $1.00 = FREE Tide.
4) Keep your eyes open for coupons in the actual store. Sometimes Target will have tearpads, peelies, hangtags, etc, that are Target coupons. Again, you can combine them with your manufacturer coupons. Right now there are $1.00 Target Ziplock coupons attached to some Ziplock items in the store + $1.00 Ziplock manufacterer coupons = some pretty cheap darn Ziplock stuff..
5) Watch the Target ads for gift card deals. These are AWESOME. Combined with coupons, sometimes Target will pay YOU to take items off their hands. The last major one I remember was the Venus or Fusion razors.. it was buy two, get a $5 or $10 gift card, I can't remember which. And there were $4 coupons available to use on the razors. Buy two razors, use two $4 coupons and get handed a gift card back.. good deal. There's also a Sobe gift card deal coming up, making the Sobe free using coupons.
6) Keep your eyes open for coupons that say "buy x product, get y product free." Then combine those with other coupons. Example: I had coupons for $1.00 off Chinet plates. I also had coupons for FREE Heinz ketchup when you buy Chinet plates. I ALSO had $3 off $15 partyware purchase Target coupon. Combine all those, and I now live in a Chinet fort and take baths in ketchup. My skin has never looked so smooth (and tomatoey) and my utility bills have never been so high. (I'm kidding, I'm kidding.. )
Hope that helps out a little bit. We were all new once. Feel free to PM someone when you have a question about something they post here.. if they don't answer, at least you tried, right? And a bunch of people will answer.

So I know that so many of you are extremely frustrated at all the bizarre things the register is doing to your coupons. And I know some of you are downright angry and feel like you�ve had it with using your coupons at Target. I still found the problem on Sunday myself. I brought along a $2/2 Fragrance collection coupon, found 2 clearance 2 oz soy candles for $1.48 each and the coupon scanned it at $1.48. I got a huge apology from the cashier and a prompt correction.
But I realize this is not what happens for all of you and it is a chore to get your remaining .52 cents value on your coupon or you don�t have the time to sit and watch the register like a hawk to make sure all your coupons go through. I respect your decision to avoid the store while this is continuing to go on, but for those of us willing to deal with the couponing calamities until it�s solved, which I do believe it will be, I want to take a minute to help you zero in on the things that most often trigger the register to misread your coupons. I know there are several issues, but there are 3 main ones to watch for:
If you have a coupon that is $1/2 or $2/3 or what have you, the register does not recognize that the coupon value is off more than one product. This will likely only affect you if the price of a single item is less than the total value of the coupon.
Example of when it will not affect you- Buy 2 Tropicana Orange Juice for $2.99 each, use a $1/2 coupon, and it will take off the full dollar.
Example of when it will affect you: Buy 3 Trident Gum 3-packs ($1.79 each), use a $2/3 coupon and it will likely only take off $1.79. You will have to watch for it, it should be immediately corrected upon request. If it is not, go to GS and ask for a manager. If they still refuse to correct it, call corporate from the store.
I am not sure why this is happening, but maybe it is something in the coding in this particular company�s coupons that causes the register to misread them. May all be part of the same big problem, but it is another thing to watch for. What happens is the P&G coupons seem to attach to the first available P&G item it finds in the register, not a specific one. For example back in July people bought 1 Pamper�s Wipes at $2.29, and Buy 1 Total Effects Body Wash for $5.79 in the same transaction. When they used the $4/1 Total Effects, it automatically took off $2.29 after mistakenly applying it to the Wipes and automatically adjusting it down. Now the $2/1 Pampers wipes scanned and only gave you $2 more in coupon value, so after a total of $6 in coupon value was used, you would only be credited $4.29 in coupon value.
How you can avoid it: If you are buying 2 P&G items and one item is worth less than the value of the coupon, hand your coupons directly after the item scans. For example, buy Tide Stain Release and then hand your $3/1 Tide STain Release, then buy Pampers and hand over your $1/1 Pampers coupon. Otherwise, that $3/1 Tide Stain Release may be applied to your wipes and automatically adjusted down.
There have been mixed reports of Target saying they don�t accept coupons on Gift Card deals. In my opinion, this started happening in June, when all of a sudden the register began mysteriously applying an unseen $10 worth of manufacturer�s coupons to items prompting a Gift Card. Now while I don�t know what the final outcome of this whole thing will be, but as of right now, to the best of my knowledge, there is no written policy stating you cannot use a coupon on a Gift Card deal. I believe this not accepting coupons on a Gift Card deal was given as an excuse when the coupons failed to work. When I started hearing reports yesterday of the B1G1 Stayfree not scanning, I quickly realize this mysterious $10 is being applied again. You do not have to cover overage of $10 however, but you will have to cover the overage for your coupon value.
Example of when this will affect you: Buy ONLY 2 Stayfree ($5.29) = $10.58 (-$10 in invisible manufacturer coupons) = .58 cents. If you had a $1/1 it will adjust down to .58 cents, but if you try to use a B1G1, it will not work since the register sees you as only having .58 cents worth of merchandise to use a coupon on.
Example of when this should not affect you: Buy 2 Stayfree ($5.29) and a gallon of milk ($3.09) = $13.67 (-$10 in invisible manufacturer coupons) = $3.67. If you have two $1/1 coupons they both should scan in just fine, but if you try to use a B1G1, it will still not work since the coupon value is $4.49 and the register sees you as only having $3.67 worth of merchandise to use a coupon on. This is what I mean about having enough merchandise to cover the total coupon value you want to use.
Believe me I know this just stinks, and like I said, I respect anyone who is fed up and chooses that they are better off not to deal with it, but to me it is a very unfortunate, temporary wrinkle at a store I love, and I am willing to hang in there as long as it gets ironed out soon.
When the coupon beeped the cashier said it was because I am only allowed to use one C9 coupon.
Don't you just love it when the cashiers make up their own rules? geez
Needless to say, after I paid for that transaction, minus the second pack of socks & I took the second pack of socks and my second Target C9 coupon to another register.
The September issue of Parenting Early Years has a $2 MQ for any size Tide Stain Release. Small bags (10 ct.) of the pacs are $2.99, so you can get them for $.99 AQ
zolar do you know if this is a price reduction? my store has these for $3.99 as of sunday morning...i know there was a target insert coupon two weeks ago for $1.50 tide stain release...combine that with the $1/1 tide stain release from 8/29 p&g and that would be $.49 each....
will put this on my list to look at this week...i hope they cut the prices on those.

The 5 Qs in the "booklet" are:
1) Bagel Bites = 1$/1 = Exp. 4/30/11 (plenty of time for a possible TQ stack)
2) Pledge Furniture Care products = $1.50/2 = Exp. 11/30/10
3) Pledge Multi Surface product = $0.75/1 = Exp. 11/30/10
4) Pledge Fabric Sweeper for Pet Hair = $0.75/1 = Exp. 11/30/10
ETA: There's a TQ on Target [Target.com] for the Pet Hair Sweeper = $2/1 = Exp. 10/16/10
I clicked "Household" on the left and it was at the bottom of that first page! (stack would = $2.75 off 1.)
5) Sara Lee pre-sliced meat = 1$/1 = Exp.12/31/10 (states that it cannot be combined with any other offer)
Girls knit shorts 032007690 and tank tops 032007622 on clearance for $0.87. There were lots of colors. The tank tops have rhinestone decals.
Room Essentials Bathroom Furniture Wood look Wall Cabinet with towel bar on clearance for $17.48.
Target Home Bathroom furniture Clearance Items:
White medicine cabinet $41.98
Mirror $20.98
Over the toilet white shelf $13.98
Sorry I have no numbers, I was in a hurry and didn't actually end up buying any bath furniture. My cart felt so empty after the last couple weeks of fabulous deals
Its coupons, not rocket science people. If you can't figure it out, maybe you should get out of the way because I have deals to get.
Peelies found today:
-$5/2 Goodnights TQ exp. 12/31
-$1/1 Cheerios again exp. 2011
-$2 Post Cereal and Fruit exp. 4/11/2011
-$10 off Wireless Router and Printer TQ exp. 2011
$1 off 12 pk 12 oz cans soda exp 10/4 pepsi and coke pictured
50 cents off deli purchase of 50 cents or more deli dept pic of turkey and trimmings
-The P/G thing has been that way for years. It is simply because the POS only looks at family codes.
-Obviously the $1/2 was covered extensively by WCCO and already talked about.
-And I have never heard of the mystery '$10 of MQs'.
Its coupons, not rocket science people. If you can't figure it out, maybe you should get out of the way because I have deals to get.
Also wanted to add, found C9 womens basketball type shorts. All at $6.98, except the XXL were 85% off at $1.24. A little big, but you can't beat the price after coupon!

Only add the listener once. It will be called for each time it is added.
please can you show me the line of code you use to only add a listener once?
public class game extends JFrame implements ActionListener{
isit like this?
It is not possible to control the logic with a single line of code.
For example: If the addListener() method is in a loop it will be added many times.
Or if it is in another method that is called many times, it will be called each time.
how do i change these

Find why the actionPerformed() method is called more than once?
Add a println() next to the line where the addActionListener() method is called to see how many times it is called. If it is called more than once, then you need to move the call to addActionListener() to where it is only called one time.
Looks like the same listener is added 4 times to 4 different buttons. That wouldn't be a problem if only one button is pressed.
I'm done for tonight. Back tomorrow.
I have been playing around with the game. I did what you said and added the system.out.println as you can see in the code below:
Last edited by newtolearningjava; April 26th, 2014 at 17:53.
To see what events are causing the actionPerformed() method to be called, add a println statement to print out the ActionEvent object that is passed to that method. A lot of info will be printed and somewhere in that printout you can see what component sent the event.
Did you look at what was printed out in the actionPerformed() method to see what component sent the ActionEvent?
I've lost my version of the source for this problem. I can't compile and execute it for testing.

Thank you Caroline for this beautiful theme.
I've installed and started customizing the theme using the child theme, and visited pretty much all the past posts to get ideas and solutions, but still have a few things I either could not find answers or suggested methods did not work.
I'll post each one separately to keep it simple - any advice will be much appreciated!
The site is this
*To make dropdown menus*
I'm having trouble creating dropdown for the menu.
I have read and tried following the advice on here but it seems like I am not understanding it right and I am quite confused.
On menu, I have "HOME""PROFILE""STAGE+CAMERA+VOICE""ARTWORK""CONTACT"
and for three of them (profile, stage+camera+voice, and artwork) to be dropdown.
I've originally thought that's done via creating parent page and child page but didn't work, so following the previous post, I've created categories under those 3 names.
I can see that I am supposed to use custom link in order to make the dropdown but what URL am I linking to?
Obviously I'm misunderstanding some steps here with my confusion. If anyone can help me clarify this would be wonderful.

The veteran centre-back is speculated by Sport today as being unhappy at the club and seriously considering leaving at the end of the season.
Puyol, who signed a contract extension until June 2016 only in January, underwent corrective knee surgery in mid-March and has since been described, say Sport, as 'much more secretive than before'.
The 35-year-old's unhappiness reportedly stems from a discontent at his treatment by technical staff since making efforts to return before schedule from multiple injuries sustained in recent months.
Specifically, this is linked to his being benched for the Champions League Last 16 second leg tie against Milan, which he allegedly saw as unfair.

A Prayer for Owen Meany
by John Irving
A Prayer for Owen Meany Appearances Quotes
How we cite our quotes:
Quote #7
[Mrs. Merrill] suffered visibly. Her blondness turned to dry straw; her cheeks and nose turned a raw salmon color, her eyes watered—she caught every flu, every common cold there was; no epidemic missed her. Aghast at the loss of her California color, she tried makeup; but this turned her skin to clay. Even in summer, she couldn't tan; she turned so dead white in the winter, there was nothing for her to do in the sun but burn. She was sick all the time, and this cost her her energy; she grew listless; she developed a matronly spread, and the vague, unfocused look of someone over forty who might be sixty—or would be, tomorrow. (3.134)
The description of Mrs. Merrill tells us all kinds of things: we learn about her personality and her personal life; we learn about her background; and we also learn a lot about the novel's setting. We're in New Hampshire, where the weather can be so cold and rough that even the healthiest person from the west coast can suddenly be reduced to being sniffling, haggard, tired, and prematurely aged.
Quote #8
"Ah, yes, Owen, what was it about the turtledoves?" the Rev. Mr. Wiggin said.
"THEY LOOK LIKE THEY'RE FROM OUTER SPACE," Owen said. "NO ONE KNOWS WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE."
"They're doves!" Barb Wiggin said. "Everyone knows what doves are!"
"THEY'RE GIANT DOVES," Owen said. "THEY'RE AS BIG AS HALF A DONKEY. WHAT KIND OF BIRD IS THAT? A BIRD FROM MARS? THEY'RE ACTUALLY KIND OF FRIGHTENING." (4.116-119)
Owen's insistence on creating an accurate depiction of the nativity scene for the Christmas pageant is kind of interesting. There's no room for imagination in this play – it has to be precise. This shows us a couple of things about Owen: the birth of Christ isn't a legend to him – it's something that really happened and that needs to be represented perfectly. It also shows us how Owen is an expert at orchestrating the events that happen around him.
Quote #9
"You're too pale," she told him, actually pinching color into Owen's face.
"OW!" he said.
"The Baby Jesus should be apple-cheeked," she told him. She bent even closer to him and touched the tip of her nose to his nose; quite unexpectedly she kissed him on the mouth. It was not a tender, affectionate kiss; it was a cruel, teasing kiss that startled Owen—he flushed, he turned the rosy complexion Barb Wiggin had desired; tears sprang to his eyes. (5.121-123)
Barb's insistence that Baby Jesus be rosy-cheeked shows us a critical difference between her brand of faith and Owen's. Barb seems to be preoccupied with a pretty scripted vision of what Jesus looked like – probably blonde, blue-eyed, and rosy-cheeked. Owen, on the other hand, seems to care more about accurately representing the circumstances of Christ's birth.

The State Department ought to review the list of governments the US had attempted to overthrow since the end of WWII.
The fact that Syriza leaders, for some time, have made no secret of their affinity for Russia is reason enough to seal their fate.
The Devil's List of what the United States has done to Cuba
If the Americans were aware of all the stories of neo-Nazi behavior in Ukraine, they might start to wonder why their government was so closely allied with such people.
The US military, in the course of its wars in recent decades, has been responsible for the deliberate deaths of dozens of journalists.
It's a tough decision to normalize relations with a country whose police murder its own civilians and that kills even more abroad, but Cuba needs to do it.
Do Americans and the world need yet another reminder that the United States is a leading practitioner of torture? Yes.
Here is how the annual vote in the UN General Assembly calling for an end to the US's embargo against Cuba has gone.

For the record she always ranks in the 50% percentile for height and weight.. so she is average.
Rude comments about baby
Babies with some chubbiness are so cute! And it must be normal for babies to look like they are getting pleanty to eat since she's 50th percentile. My dd is 14 lbs. at 7 months because we've had a hard time getting her to gain. Everyone always thinks she was premature. It hurt my feelings for a while because I was putting in so much effort to get her to gain weight, but I'm over it now. She's healthy and that's all that matters. It's really cute that she's so little though because she's so tiny that it looks funny for her to be standing up. People think she's a really advanced younger baby. Don't take it personally. People like to see chunky babies, so they are probably saying it to compliment you. I don't think they would say it to intentionally hurt your feelings. They just don't remember what it's like and don't think about how what they're saying might upset you.

Seems like we get criticized no matter what, small vs big babies, quiet vs loud kiddos, overdressed vs underdressed. The other day a cashier kept insisting that LO was sooo uncomfortable sitting in the cart (she likes putting her feet up, so she's always crooked in there no matter what). The lady kept talking in a baby voice, but mommy I'm so uncomfortable etc. Yeah, a stranger cares about my own LOs comfort more than I do. Anyway, sorry to kinda hijack but these are the kind of comments that get under my skin...
My LO is in the 19th percentile for weight & the 50th for height so she is a bit small. Sometimes people call her skinny, which I think is a bit annoying since she actually has rolls of chub going sideways down her arms and legs. I know that most people think it's cute when babies are really chubby so their comments about your LO are probably well-meaning. We are very defensive of our LO's and other people seem to forget that when they throw out random comments like "She doesn't miss a meal." They just aren't thinking of how it will make you feel!
I wish it was as acceptable for me to have all that chub as it is for my LO... then my self-esteem would skyrocket!

Josie is usually somewhere around 90th percentile for height and 75th or so for weight...which makes her skinny for her height. But we get comments about how big and chubby she is from time to time. We particularly got those comments visiting hubby's family on the west coast. It mostly came from his side of his family (which is Asian) and other Asian folks...I guess she's big for an Asian baby? Must be my Midwestern genes ;)

I get all the time how tall and thin, aka "huge" my baby is. Sigh. The lamest is when she is in her stroller, which is gray and green, but wearing ALL PINK and someone will ask my ODD, "Is that your little brother?" ODD always rolls her eyes and says, "She's my SISTER."

Combining with prostaglandin E (PGE(2)) to initiate a change in cell activity.
A series of molecular signals that proceeds with an activated receptor promoting the exchange of GDP for GTP on the alpha-subunit of an associated heterotrimeric G-protein complex. The GTP-bound activated alpha-G-protein then dissociates from the beta- and gamma-subunits to further transmit the signal within the cell. The pathway begins with receptor-ligand interaction, or for basal GPCR signaling the pathway begins with the receptor activating its G protein in the absence of an agonist, and ends with regulation of a downstream cellular process, e.g. transcription. The pathway can start from the plasma membrane, Golgi or nuclear membrane (PMID:24568158 and PMID:16902576).
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a lipopolysaccharide stimulus; lipopolysaccharide is a major component of the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria.

Resident Evil 7's demo isn't part of the full game
I know I will most likely get downvoted to hell (which seems to be the norm now on Eurogamer these days.. posting your opinion or even FACTS can get you massive downvotes) Anyway my opinions..
I'm currently playing RE: Revelations and loving it (even though I HATED it at first because the aim is awful and the lack of laser sight was a s slight annoyance, also I played RE Rev2 on PS4 first which had great aim, ability to run and was 60fps) but it didn't take long for me to start loving it.
It was definitely going back to it's roots (kinda like RE4). Movement is slightly cumbersome, there is not that much ammo lying around (unless you scan every inch of ever room with the very annoying Genesis to find the hidden shineys, then you will end the game with plenty of ammo)and there is Infernal mode (which isn't that hard on NG+ with all the best upgrades) but starting it as New game is absolutely SURVIVAL horror.
This demo felt absolutely nothing like Resident Evil. It's more like PT than RE... It's all horror and supernatural-like, which Resi is definitely not (it's called BIOHAZARD after all).
I know this is not part of the actual RE7 game, but we must assume it at least gives a sense of what the game will actually be like. I really do hope I am wrong (but it's clearly going to remain first person).
I do not want a first person supernatural type horror Resident Evil. That is what this all boils down to.
It does look great however, and ran at 60fps and felt really smooth.
This should have been a spin-off or better yet a totally new IP, not the next numbered game of the series! Reply +5

Sony unlocks more CPU power for PS4 game developers
@Moz While what you say does sound logical, and I am certainly no expert, but the OS isn't just called/in use when not in game. It's always running in the backround, running well everything the PS4 does. It's not a case of when a game is running the os isn't doing anything, then when you press the PS button the OS kicks in.
Thisis good news though since the PS4 has not only a weak CPU, but the weaker one. I'd like to see Sony also up the clock rate if it was at all possible. Reply +1
PlayStation Plus November free games revealed
I'm pretty happy as I've been wanting TWD S2 but for some reason just never got round to buying it. Been tempted every single sale it's been in but never got it.
The same can be sade for Beyond Good and Evil. I have it on my 360, but only played maybe a few hours of it but loved it and wanted it on my PS3.
ME2 and Magica 2 don't really do anything for me, but I remember reading about DFS ages ago and thought it looked awesome, i've never seen anything of it since so it was a pleasant surprise to see it here.
All in all, definitely not the worst month for me. Reply +2
PlayStation 4 CUH-1200 'C-Chassis' review
I've genuinely never understood when people say the PS4 is "so loud" because mine is very quiet, and certainly a LOT quiter than my old PHAT PS3 (which before buying my PS4 I was scared it would be equal to or louder than).
So my question is, I wonder if launch units are louder than later units? I think I bought mine over a year later on 2ndDec 2014 and I find it extremely quiet. I could always hear the PS3 fan when playing, and it was awful at night when I had to turn down the volume, but on my PS4 I never hear it except a little at night when like I said the volume has to go down and I cant be bothered with the headset.
Don't misunderstand me, I'm not saying people are lying or exaggurating when they say its too loud, I'm just wondering why. Reply +3

New PS4 hardware is more efficient with less fan noise
Before I purchased my PS4 I heard loads of people complaining about the noise.. I was worried it would be just as loud as the PS3 but to my surprise I found it super quiet.. Maybe it's because mine isn't a launch unit or something I don't know, but it certainly isn't loud by any standard. Reducing it even more and the power consumption is only a good thing, good going Sony. Reply +1
Looks like Sony is readying a 1TB PlayStation 4
Borderlands: Handsome Collection gets new 7.7GB patch
@Malek86 When mentioning the 360 I was probably thinking more along the lines of content adding DLC, it was stored seperately away from the game if you had installed it (which I know wasn't a feature from the start).
On PS4 it doesn't matter if it's a 100MB bug fixing patch or a 8GB content adding DLC.. You delete that game, you lose it all. If I am wrong in this regard please correct me.
And as before if anyone has a site that lists download sizes for patches + DLC please let me know.
Cheers Reply +2
OT I know, but does anybody know of any website or anything that lists the latest patch and it's size for PS4 games? It's not massively relevant now since having upgraded to a 2TB HDD, but I have a slow connection and re-downloading massive patches is a pain.
Basically before I upgraded, I'd have to delete installed games to make space for the new one, but I didn't know what best game to delete was (one with no or a small patch).
I now jot down in a .txt file the size of new patches.
I dunno what Sony were thinking when they tied the game install and patches together (Like the Vita), so deleting a game deletes the patch. Give us control over both! Heck the 360 did this perfectly, and even (to some extent?) the PS3!You delete a game that happened to have multi gigs of patches and then in a year or sometime in the future you want to play it again, and you get hit with a massive patch. It's ridiculous!

Elder Scrolls Online and the turbulent topic of text chat on console
@Krappers And you can do the same on PS4. PS4 Supports USB Keyboards and mice actually, but well tht is game dependant. I have a small Bluetooth Keyboard (HP Slim Bluetooth Keyboard) I use on my PS4 for text entry.
Text Entry is something that has ALWAYS bothered me when it comes to console gaming. There is PLENTY of games I think that should have and could have benefited a lot from having the ability to text chat. A current example of this is Destiny. I would love to be able to just quickly type messages when doing strikes or raids or whatever. Press and hold a button and a small text box pops up, boom done. It doesn't have to have a full text log window or anything, just have it show on screen then disappear slowly afterwords.
Text to speech like on Android/iOS/Chrome etc would also be awesome.
Completely OT: Was actually very lucky as I got it on ebay for �0.99p with �3.20 postage, so all in less than a fiver for something that some sites have ranging anywhere from �30 to �70.. no idea what it was brand new. I always feel so awful for the sellers when that kinda thing happens. Reply +1

Watch Uncharted 4 and The Last of Us at 60fps
The Uncharted 4 video does not look right. The article says Gamersyde "Aquired" 60fps footage but it's clearly just the livestream footage sped up because you can still hear all the cheering etc in the background.
It seems to me that is the case, and artificially re-editing footage to 60fps doesn't make it the same as capturing something rendered in 60fps, thus I feel it looks un-natural.
Judging by the other people who said similar, neg away it makes no difference.
Needless to say I'm super excited to Uncharted 4.
A quick look at the Naughty Dog blog says that this is "in-engine" footage running on PlayStation 4 hardware - a stunning demonstration of what the new technology is capable of, but missing the all-important phrase: real-time.This caught me by surprise.. I thought In Engine meant it WAS being rendered in real time? Reply -10
Minecraft creator Notch has launched a new game
I know I will probably be down voted into oblivion for this but here goes..
I truely think notch is a one hit wonder. Minecraft's success cannot be down played but considering how many copies have been sold and how much money has been made, he has been surprisingly not very active in the creating new games field.
0x10c ? What aa joke.
Either he has zero good ideas or he is scared to put anything new out there because he seems to have reached this GOD like status.. "notch" this "notch" that.
You may be reading this with your mouse over the downvote button but I just don't see what all the hype is with the man. Sure he created an extremely succesful game in Minecraft but like I said, one hit wonder.
And I don't have anything against him either btw. I didn't bother with Minecraft personally but I have spent a lot of good hours watching streams/lets plays of it. Reply +5
