"I'll probably be a little more joke-y," Harris, 35, told PEOPLE Thursday during a break from rehearsing the Great White Way's annual rite of spring. "I'm going to angle a little bit more towards Jon Stewart in a perfect world."
As for having to fill shoes impressively worn in years past by the Sexiest Man Alive, Harris says, "Hugh Jackman did the [opening] production number very well, so to try and replicate [that], I worry that it would seem like I'm trying to repeat. I wouldn't want to be a repeater."
Jackman's AdviceThis year's Oscar host Jackman, himself a Tony and Emmy winner (for hosting the 2004 Tonys), serves as more of a mentor than tormentor for Harris, who hopes not to be compared to the admired Aussie.
"[There's] no competition at all," Harris says, smiling. "I saw [Hugh] three or four days ago, and he couldn't have been lovelier."
Did he offer any words of wisdom?
"I was asking him how to maintain the audience at Radio City [Music Hall]'s attention," says Harris, "and [Hugh] had some good tips for me. He seemed very confident and said, 'Make sure you don't forget to have a lot of fun.' "
Neil's Own FavoritesThough it may seem undiplomatic to play favorites, Harris says that as far as this theatrical season is concerned, he's been recommending the Tony-nominated Next to Normal, a rock musical about a family affected by its bipolar matriarch. "It's the show that I bought the album during intermission and have been listening to ever since," he admits.
"Rock of Ages is pretty great too," Harris says of the '80s rock musical, starring former American Idol contestant Constantine Maroulis. "Everyone thought it was going to be a sore spot on the Broadway landscape – and it's great."
In the straight-play acting categories, stars of TV and screen – including Jane Fonda, James Gandolfini, Allison Janney, Jeff Daniels and Marcia Gay Harden – promise to add glitz to the proceedings.
And the winners will be announced Sunday, June 7, during the three-hour, live CBS telecast from the 6,000-seat Radio City Music Hall. For a complete list of nominees, click here.

These two relatively small reserves, separated by the Mbashe River, are situated in the central Wild Coast. They are bordered on the one side by the Indian Ocean and on the other by rugged grasslands of the former Transkei. Both reserves are primarily covered by lowland forest but also support grasslands and acacia scrub. There are a total of 290 bird species recorded in the reserves, with at least a hundred to be found on a given visit. Being relatively under- birded, the number of known birds is ever increasing. Although a day will suffice in each reserve, at least three days is required/recommended to make the trip worthwhile.
The reserves remain relatively undeveloped with only footpaths giving access to the majority of areas. With both reserves being small, most places can be reached on foot. Care should however be taken that you can find your way out of the forests. There are a few trails that can be negotiated by 4x4 to shorten the walks.
Although the two reserves are very similar in habitat and vegetation and support many of the same small mammals and birds, Dwesa also contains a number of introduced game species, including red hartebeest, blesbok and blue wildebeest. Crocodiles have been re-introduced to the rivers and buffalo, eland and warthog once again roam the grassland and forest fringes.
Dwesa Nature Reserve is the bigger of the two reserves (3900ha) situated on the western side of the Mbashe River. There is a campsite and a few Chalets, beautifully situated adjacent a small estuary spilling into the ocean.
A blend of coastal forest, open grassland, winding rivers and a diverse coastline. Trails through lush forests make this a rambler's paradise. From the top of Kobole Point, there are magnificent views across the ocean where dolphins and whales are often seen.
The birdlife in this 3900-ha reserve includes such rarities as the Narina Trogon and Mangrove Kingfisher. A good selection of the forest specials should be easily located in and around the campsite and chalets. The best forest birding is done on the road to the reserve office. There is also a track leading north through the forest towards Mendu (ask at the Office for directions).
One should also walk through the grasslands around the office, where one can find Wailing Cisticola, Plainbacked Pipit, Broadtailed Warbler and Yellowthroated Longclaw. Look in the moist grassland around the estuary east of the campsite for Croaking Cisticola and a pair of Crowned Crane that frequent the area. Venturing further into Dwesa will take you to more extensive grasslands, especially around the Mendu estuary.
Accommodation is provided in the form of self-catering chalets and a camp site. There are five 5-bed chalets and three 4-bed chalets. All of these chalets have gas refrigerators and stoves. The camp site has 20 stands and communal ablution facilities.
There is also a caravan park/game lodge in Idutywa itself which can be contacted on +27 (0)47 499 0020 for further information.
A newly established nature reserve, Cwebe contains a variety of habitats - forest, grassland, mangrove and beach - which support a wide range of birds and small mammals. The Mbanyana River is an added attraction, with its spectacular waterfalls and beautiful lagoon where Cape Clawless Otters may be observed. The 2149ha reserve is bounded to the south by the Mbashe River and from here a sandy beach, popular with anglers and shell-collectors, stretches northward.
The best forest birding is done around the Mbanyana River causeway. Here one can find Halfcollared Kingfisher, Longtailed Wagtail, Narina Trogon, and Crowned Eagle. This area can be reached by following the 4x4 track running across the reserve; the turn-off to the track is approximately 500m after the gate to the Nature Reserve. The track also winds through some forest clearings, which provide excellent habitat for Broadtailed Warbler and Barratt??s Warbler. Following the road past the Haven takes you to some cottages and the mouth of the Mbanyana River. Among the moist grasslands are good places to look for Croaking Cisticola and Wailing Cisticola. The mouth of the Mbashe River plays host to Mangroves, Coastal forest and a small tern Colony.
Cwebe Nature Reserve also has a trail leading to a waterfall in the forest. The trail is well marked and the trip well worth it (ask for directions at the hotel).
The only accommodation currently offered in Cwebe Nature reserve is the Haven Hotel, which is situated about two kilometres from the Mbashe River, a popular spot for anglers. The rooms are all individual chalet style accommodation. Self-catering accommodation and a camping site are currently under development.
- Nature reserve
- Walking trails
- Bird watching
- Accommodation
- Fishing (in demarcated areas)
- 4x4 trails
How to get there
With these reserves being in the rural areas of the Transkei, the access roads, which are gravel, can be notoriously bad. All the roads however have recently been upgraded, making it accessible to all vehicles. This however may change after a few rainy seasons.
The turn-off to Dwesa is in the town of Idutya, 80km from Umtata. The turn-off is well signposted.
To get to Cwebe there is a turn-off 40km from Umtata that is sign-boarded Bityi/Elliotdale; here one should follow the signs to Elliotdale. After 19km along the gravel road there is a tarred road; immediately upon reaching the tar, take a right turn back onto gravel and follow the signs to The Haven Hotel. The Haven is another 45km along the same gravel road.
From Umtata one should follow the N2 towards Idutywa for 40km and from Idutywa follow the N2 towards Umtata for 49km and you will reach Cwebe.

rhino cull
The rhino cull at Dwesa is a disgrace. Which idiots are running the Eastern Cape Parks Board??

Rhino Cull
I hope that people will boycott the Dwesi resort. these people are just out to make money and have incompeteant foreign hunters hunting there just to fill their FAT pockets. I wonder how many officials at the pARKS bOARD ARE GETTING A BACK HAND FOR THIS?
some questions
Under the Mendwane agreement of 1995, the Dwesa-Cwebe Nature Reserves are to be jointly managed by the conservation authority and a committee of local residents. Under the land restitution claim resolved in 2001, a community Trust holds title to the reserves, which are leased by ECPB.
What decision-making process led to the rhino cull? Were community members consulted? Are they gaining any benefit from the proceeds of the cull?

Make your voice heard
I agree with your statement completely. A boycott harms the locals more than the government, pushes locals further into poverty and justifies the arguements for industrial development. Be responsible about who you visit there, learn more about the issues they are facing and what their concerns are, and then make your voice heard. Creating the market for community-led, environmentally responsible tourism, as well as micro-enterprises will be much more effective than a boycott.

3 Internet Marketing Tips
We are all human beings. We human beings can all agree that we are far from perfect! This is why we always forget things! Also the reason we constantly need to be reminded of all those things we forget! When we try to think of all the tasks we need to accomplish, we start to feel anxious!
When we feel anxious, we start to procrastinate, bringing destruction to our daily tasks and goals. Creating a schedule is very important for a clear stress-free mind! Not to mention, we can think more clearly on a stress-free mind. It helps us to achieve more!
Make a schedule of your everyday tasks. This will help you focus on one thought at a time and accomplish more!
We start out great and consistent in the beginning of our marketing plans journey. But what happens soon after? We create so many tasks and goals and have so many ideas that we get back to square one! We get caught up in the internet marketing world and are soon left anxious, disorganized, and frustrated we arent achieving our goals.
I know its hard, but it helps very much so to keep one objective at a time. Even with one marketing strategy there are so many ways you can change what you do for the better. Work at one strategy until you perfect that strategy.
You think you perfected a strategy have you? Keep in mind there are probably thousands of things you can change for the better with just one marketing technique. If you think you have perfected your technique for the best, its time for the next step!
The next step to a successful marketing plan, after you have:
1) Chosen and practiced one marketing method
2) Optimized, tweaked, and perfected each part to the point of perfection the third objective is to be consistent!
Yes, even though you have chose one marketing plan and perfected it, your next goal is to be consistent. If you are not consistent in the quality of your execution, you will not be reaching your potential! It is not enough to be consistent but you must also make sure you are consistently doing things right! Giving each task its proper time!
We have to overcome this quality of being hasty! Consistently executing your marketing technique perfectly is one of the hardest tasks! You need a lot of patience! And the quality of patience and hastiness are total opposites! Arent they?!
Keep a perfectly tweaked marketing plan executed on a consistent basis and you will be on your way to a successful marketing plan!
How will you achieve consistency is the next question? I have already mentioned creating a schedule. There are so many little things to remember when executing each task of your marketing on the web.
My advice to you is to make a checklist for each different task. Break down your marketing plan into steps or tasks. After each task, go through a checklist of tweaks and optimization requirements to meet before you can move on to the next task. This will ensure quality execution of each step of your marketing plan.
There you have it! You can win the online world with the following:
1) Schedule for organization of goals and tasks
2) Perfection executing each task the right way
3) Consistency repeatedly executing tasks perfectly

Fed's Bullard Says He Expects Growth to Pick Up in Second Half
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard said he expects U.S. economic growth to pick up in the second half of the year, after a report showing the economy expanded less than forecast in the second quarter.
"This is all confirming what we already knew, which is that the first half has not been as strong as we'd like," Bullard said of today's Commerce Department report in an interview with CNBC Television.
The U.S. economy grew less than forecast in the second quarter after almost stalling at the start of the year, Commerce Department figures showed today. Gross domestic product rose at a 1.3 percent annual rate following a 0.4 percent gain in the prior quarter that was less than previously estimated.
Bullard said issues that plagued the economy in the first half of the year, such as the March earthquake in Japan, high oil prices and the European debt crisis, have largely subsided. One uncertainty that remains is whether lawmakers will reach a deal to cut the nation's budget deficit in time to raise the debt-ceiling by Aug. 2.
"We'll get a deal and then we'll have those uncertainties off the table," Bullard said in the interview. "We're in better shape for better growth in the second half of the year."
Bullard said that while central bankers need to react to economic data and make policy adjustments accordingly, the Fed is already pursuing an "ultra-easy monetary policy."
"We've got interest rates at zero, they've been at zero for a long time, we've got the extended period language and we've got an enlarged balance sheet, which we ratcheted up with QE2," he said.
'Extended Period'
The Federal Open Market Committee voted on June 22 to conclude its $600 billion bond-buying program as scheduled at the end of last month, and to maintain its balance sheet near record levels by reinvesting proceeds from its securities holdings. Central bankers also pledged to leave interest rates low for an "extended period."
"We still have a very easy policy, it's threatening higher inflation in the U.S. economy," Bullard said. "We have to be cognizant of that moving forward."
Bullard, 50, has led the St. Louis Fed since 2008. Fed presidents rotate voting on monetary policy with Bullard next voting in 2013.

"Judson #6 Piece" (1963) was for Ruth Emerson, using only electronic sounds. "Illuminations from Fantastic Gardens" (1964), the only composition for a vocal ensemble on this recording, was composed for Elaine Summers' "An Evening of Fantastic Gardens", a multi-media event of dance, music, film and visual projections, as part of the Judson Dance Theater concerts.

The Browning BPS I bought did not come with a mag plug and I would like to get one so I can dove hunt with it. Where could I find one at? I tried Browning's part list, but it's not listed. Or I did not see it.

You don't need to BUY one, it's simple enough to make one yourself with a saw and a 1/2" dowel from the hardware store; take the maximum number of shells your shotgun can hold now, then measure how long all of those rounds but 2 are when they're laid end to end, and that's how long your plug is going to be. HTH.

No kidding, guys. I'm not THAT redneck :D. I like to be halfway professional. I may take a look at the plug in my 870 and get my dad to fashion one. Woodworking is his hobby :). Now, what type of would shall I use?
January 30, 2003, 10:27 PM
Do you have the Brownells (http://www.brownells.com) catalog? Not sure if they have your part, but if you are missing this catalog, you are missing out.

lol Stringer,
I will admit I am simple in some ways. The instances I use plugs fall between times when I don't want or need one. Its simple, quick, I don't worry about keeping track of the darn thing. I geuss it all depends of if you want something to look pretty or just get the job done. My thinking is that no body ever sees the thing so I will save my time and efforts (I enjoy woodworking myself) for something I want to show off. For me in this case simple, cheap and readily available win out every time.

Mag plugs are not high tech. Pencils will work, so do 1/4"-20 bolts with lots of washers and Remington's first model 870 solid steel mag plug.
Or if it's extra work and classy looks you're after, lathe a hardwood dowel of proper length down to slightly smaller than press fit in the magazine, then stain and finish to match your stock.
January 31, 2003, 06:09 AM
I'm sure more than a couple of us have forgotten to bring a plug when hunting and have whittled one out of a tree limb.

The factory plug for my Maverick/Mossy was a simple wooden dowel rod with a couple of o-rings so it wouldn't rattle around in the mag. Somehow, I managed to lose that plug, but a brand new never sharpened standrd wooden pencil with a full eraser worked just fine.
January 31, 2003, 11:36 AM
I was going to say whittle a stick, but somebody beat me to it. If a piece of oak tree limb was good enough for my dad's Model 12 it's good enough for anything.
OTOH, the gun shops here sell green plastic plugs made by, no surprise, Remington.
January 31, 2003, 05:09 PM
John, are you saying that it's fitting that the Remington plugs are green, or that Remington shouldn't make plugs?
Remington engages in plenty of questionable gun-making practices, including J-lock safeties and magazine dimples. But you can't blame them for plugs. Take up any complaints there with your wildlife agency.
Could be I'm misinterpreting here...
February 1, 2003, 12:10 AM
Well, green is fitting, but I don't know about Big Green's current quality since I haven't bought one of theirs since 1993.
Nevermind, that's not true, I bought one of the Wally World Special 1100s and it's been a good gun so far.
The last time I looked a couple of years ago, Virginia's regs said plugs had to be wood or metal. Maybe they've changed the regs now, but plastic wasn't included then.
February 1, 2003, 04:40 PM
Now that's interesting. I might take a gander at TN's regs and see if they mention materials. If VA regs say "wood or metal," I'll bet there's a bunch of folks that are in violation.
February 1, 2003, 06:16 PM
I have never used a plug in any shotgun. Who has actually had a game warden check for a plug?
February 1, 2003, 06:24 PM
The brother of my duck hunting buddy got a ticket in 1993 in VA for no plug. And being on the wrong side of the game preserve line. And not having a license. Oops.
And back when I was a kid and my dad's first cousin was Sheriff of Augusta County, the Sheriff was bird hunting with his buddy the judge one day and they jumped the first covey of quail. The Sheriff got a few of them - bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. Oops.
I just looked at the 2002-2003 Hunting and Trapping regs.
"...must be plugged with a plug that cannot be removed from the loading end so the gun will hold a total of no more than three shells." I'm legal now.
February 1, 2003, 11:33 PM
I've shot a couple of TWRA (Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency) dove shoots where the game wardens came around and checked both licenses and magazine capacity. No plug got you a fine.
February 2, 2003, 02:55 AM
I have never used a plug in any shotgun. Who has actually had a game warden check for a plug?
Yep, on private land, too.
February 3, 2003, 10:22 AM
Me...I have had the Game & Fish Folks ask; only 1 actually checked, but the particular Game & Fish guy involved was at least 90% jack%%% himself...
He got busted by the Federal Game & Fish guys a couple of years later...hunting dove over a baited field...with unplugged shotgun.
The 'baited field' was acutally a private airstrip, covered in about 1/2" of wheat, milo, and a couple of other grains.

Google Chromecast media streamer
Google's media streamer is a little prone to crashes, but when it works, it delivers a blockbuster experience
- Small, simple, cheap
- Needs power over USB (no MHL)
Bottom Line
Google's newest wireless gadget, the Chromecast dongle, promises to bridge the gap between the small screen of your mobile device and the big screen of your TV. It's cheap, simple, and doesn't include another layer of unnecessary services for you to sign up to.
Price$ 35.00 (AUD)
Google's new Chromecast device wants to make it dead-simple to play Internet video on your TV, using a huge range of phones, tablets, and laptops as your controller.
The experience is like using AirPlay to beam content from an iOS device to an Apple TV. Tap the Chromecast button on your phone or tablet, and poof--the video starts playing on your TV. But unlike AirPlay, Chromecast isn't streaming the content from your device itself, but rather straight from the Internet, at the highest resolution available. That means you can still use your device to multitask without interrupting the video. In fact, it works like the Plair, only more reliably and for less money.
These are early days for the Chromecast, and not all of its features worked quite as effortlessly in our office as they did for Google in the company's Wednesday demo. But considering the impulse-buy price of $35, Chromecast is still a worthy purchase--especially since it includes three months of Netflix streaming, a $24 value.
Simple setup
The Chromecast is a small HDMI dongle that plugs into any available HDMI port on your HDTV. But because HDMI doesn't provide any power, the Chromecast needs constant power from a USB port as well. That can be a USB port on your TV if it has one. If no port is available, you'll need to connect the included USB cable to the bundled power adapter and find a place to plug it in.
After you've inserted and powered the dongle, Chromecast directs you to visit a URL on an approved device to finish setup. But when I fired up the Chrome browser on an iPhone 5 to do just that, I was greeted by an error message directing me to use an Android phone, or the Chrome browser on a Mac or Windows laptop. So, while you can use iOS devices to control your Chromecast, your initial setup requires other hardware.
I tried again from a Nexus 4 running Android 4.2, and the URL directed me to grab the Chromecast app on the Play Store. That app automatically detected the Chromecast device and let me name it and add it to my Wi-Fi network. So far, so good. Now the Chromecast was viewable by my iPhone and Mac as well as my Android phone and tablet.
Uh-oh, it's (not) magic
Google's demo started with the TV off, and when product manager Rishi Chandra sent a video to Chromecast by tapping the friendly Chromecast button in the YouTube app for Android, the TV obediently flicked to life. "Chromecast is turning on my TV, switching it to the right input, and now playing YouTube in HD on the TV," he boasted, but that trick didn't work at the TechHive office.
I thought maybe this was because I had plugged Chromecast into the TV's USB port, and it wasn't getting power with the TV off. Not so, apparently. When I plugged Chromecast's power adapter into the wall instead, the TV-on trick still didn't work. The YouTube app for Android saw the Chromecast and let me cast to it, but I had to turn the TV on myself (like a caveman!) and select the proper input to see the already playing video.
While a video is playing, you control it with your device the same way you would if it was playing on that device--meaning, I could mash the volume buttons on my Android phone and see a volume indicator on my TV. If you max out that volume slider, you see a message telling you that if you still need it louder, you'll have to turn up your TV itself. So while you can control playback from your phone or tablet, plan on keeping your TV remote handy too.
What works
But aside from those niggles--and some intermittent crashing back to the "ready to cast" screen, which might be the result of an overcrowded Wi-Fi network here at the office, the other features in Google's demo worked as advertised.
Playing videos from the YouTube apps on Android and iOS was a cinch--just tap the Chromecast button, and select the Chromecast device. YouTube even lets you add additional videos to the TV queue--an obvious "Add to TV queue" pops up on the Android app when you browse to another video, and the same option appears on iOS, but it's slightly hidden under the Share menu.
The Chromecast button appears in Netflix for iOS and Android too, and works like a charm. Once a video is playing, you can put your phone or tablet to sleep to save battery life, and still pause the playback from the lock screen, or pick up the controls from another device on the same Wi-Fi network.
The Play Music and Play Movies & TV apps on Android are also supported and let you cast content you've bought or rented from the Play Store. I was unable to play the Yeezus album that I'd sideloaded in to Play Music, and volume control lagged a little and worked only when I was in those apps. I could put the phone in sleep mode and get forward/back and play/pause controls on the lock screen, but the volume controls didn't work there either.
Brain freeze
Chromecast can also display content from a tab in Google Chrome on a Mac, Windows machine, or Chromebook Pixel, although that particular feature is still in beta. Once I downloaded the Google Cast app for Chrome, the Chromecast button appeared in my browser's upper-right corner, next to the URL bar. Casting a tab worked, although the playback lagged behind what was shown in the browser, and I was unable to adjust the volume with my Mac's volume buttons.
Still, I successfully played videos from Vimeo, Hulu Plus, and BravoTV.com. Chromecast strips out the view of your desktop and the browser's menu bar to focus on the content itself, which is a nice touch. I still had to go full-screen on my Mac to get a full-screen view on the TV, which meant I couldn't do other things on my Mac, unless I pressed Command-H to hide the Chrome app, or parked some other Mac apps in another Desktop space. Closing the tab on the Mac halts the playback on the TV.
As expected with anything marked beta, the tab-casting feature crashed a few times. Playback would freeze, attempt to buffer, and eventually return to the Chromecast's "ready to cast" start screen--once with a sheepish error message that said just "Brain freeze."
Still, with an SDK to let more developers add in-app support, a low price, and cross-platform compatibility, the Chromecast has a lot going for it.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

T-Mobile had previously confirmed the upcoming release of the HTC Windows Phone 8X. And while we have yet to get anything solid in terms of a price or release date — it looks like the carrier has begun to inch closer towards a release. Simply put, the Windows Phone 8X has been given a coming soon style listing on the carriers site. One that proclaims it will be "available soon." You can see the listing above and those interested can follow the via link below to trade a bit of personal information to be notified directly from T-Mobile. Of course, we will post the release details here once they are available. With that, the rumored price is $199.99 on a two-year agreement and the handset will sport features to include a 4.3-inch (1280 x 720) Super LCD 2 display, dual-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 processor, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage and an 8 megapixel rear-facing camera.

I am happy to post that we are coming close to completing the first phase of UI changes to PatternReview.com.
It has been a difficult task to make the changes so that site still feels like home while looking more modern. Let me explain. PatternReview is a content rich site and it is difficult to incorporate some of the more modern components without sacrificing some of the functionality. That is the reason it has taken this long. I�ve been working on it for more than a year and this is the 2nd version of the design which I am OK with. As most of you know, PatternReview has, and will always be a labor of love for me, so you can understand when I say this, I am nervous and excited at the same time
While there is still work left, at this time I am looking for some users who are willing to use the redesigned site and provide feedback. If you have any experience with UI design or web designing, that would be an added bonus. I am asking for help from you all because who else knows the site better than you.
We have set it up so that both the new site and the existing site use the same database so users can actually go back and forth (if they want) between the two front-ends and any posts are visible to the whole community regardless of which front end they are posted on.
Depending on the feedback from these initial users, I may open the new site to everyone after incorporating changes or go through another round of feedback.
If you are interested in getting access to the new site please send me an e-mail at [email protected]

EA has high hopes for Mass Effect sequel
Electronic Arts CEO John Riccitiello has confirmed that EA expects Mass Effect 2 to be one of the "biggest games" of 2010.
"[Mass Effect 2] a big step forward from what was an 89-, 90-rated game the first time out in graphics, presentation and epic story, but this time, the shooting is on par with a high-end shooter like Gears of War," Riccitiello told Gamasutra.
Riccitiello also noted that Battlefield: Bad Company 2 would likely help EA compete against Activision's wildly successful CoD franchise.
"Battlefield represents our best opportunity of taking the first-person business back from Activision. Call of Duty started as a million-unit franchise of a good business, and was built to be more than 10 million," said Riccitiello.
"Often, in a category as competitive as this, a title can get tired. I think we're at that point, and I think Battlefield represents our best opportunity of taking that [genre] back."??
Mass Effect 2 will be available on January 26, 2010 for the Xbox 360 and Windows-based PCs. ?

...you get what you need.
Right, firstly sorry for the lack of images for now; but you might notice that we will include them when we reply your emails (last line in my post)....as for my location, we are staying in Salaya, Nakhornpathom; close to the Mahidol University campus.....as for prices, we were hoping for a quote from you folks; but as a guide, we would like THB$35,000 baht for the entire lot....still, all prices are negotiable...
In any case, watch this post as we will update it once we organize our information.
Hamster - thanks for your advice

Send me some pics of bed , washing machine and tables with prices please to email@example.com
Dear interested parties, as I can't really put up all the images here, I had put some up at my blog at this same website...do check it out, tks.
Are you gonna try and sell me insurance if I log onto the website?
Daniel Bedingfield claimed that his new album is what it would sound like if Sting, Stevie Wonder and Micheal Jackson were in a basement together - I haven't got the album so I'll have to imagine the sound of a blind bloke and a Geordie kicking the shit out of a pedophile.
Give me a price for the wardrobe unit and the bed please
Give me a price for the fridge please.
Firstly, thanks.
Secondly, just a quick update:
I'll be posting my FB link and ID tomorrow, so we/you can have easier access to photos and chats threads and other obvious reasons. Hope to see you folks there.
Lastly, please note that the dining table (w 4 chairs), (glass-top) coffee table, and sofa had already been sold as of today.
Thanks again.
Is the washing machine a front or top loader?
Dear Interested Parties,
This is a quick update:
For images of all our available offerings, please go to Facebook (FB) and search for my ID: 'Igman Tan'
Note, all items still available for sale are at the photo album at FB.
Do feel free to browse through and contact us.
Thank you all again for your patience.
Nope, not trying to sell no insurance....so maybe u might check out my FB...(FB id: "Igman Tan" & look under "Profile" then "Photos").
asking price for the fridge is THB$3500
<Give me a price for the wardrobe unit and the bed please >
asking price for both is THB$12000 (with the mattress thrown in for free!)...you might also want to check out my FB.......(FB id: "Igman Tan" & look under "Profile" then "Photos")
Please note that the mattress is an Orthopedic mattress with "anti-bugs" properties and the bed has a metal support under the frame together with 2 side lamps IN the sides. To be honest, the cost of the "Slumberland" mattress is more expensive than the bed itself. You may check it out at any Central departmental or furniture store for the actual price of the mattress.
Thank you.

Winning the fifth season of Dancing with the Stars has made IndyCar driver Helio Castroneves a household name to nearly 25 million viewers. Even if many of them still can't pronounce it. "They don't say it right!" says Castroneves. Once and for all, that's "EL-ee-oh," people. But nothing could diminish his Nov. 27 victory alongside pro partner Julianne Hough (a repeat champ after taking the gold with Apolo Ohno). "This is," he told PEOPLE, "beyond my wildest dreams."
Before his 10 weeks of sizzling sambas and intricate quicksteps began, the Brazilian-born Castroneves, 32, joked that "only when I have some shots of tequila can I dance really well." But his fleet footwork, daring lifts and goofy-grinned charm won over voters and the judges—edging out the runner-up, Spice Girl Mel B, 32, and third-place winner Marie Osmond, 48, in an eventful season. Osmond, who fainted on-air and lost her father during the show's run, calls her Dancing experience "a gift. It's helped me through some tough stuff."
So what's next for the newest disco ball winner? "I am going to throw the biggest party when I get home to Miami," says Castroneves, who plans to display his prize in between his pair of Indy 500 trophies. "And Julianne is coming because I need a dance partner!"
Helio Takes It!

Hi Ladies,
I will be returning to work after 12 week maternity leave and need to start traveling right away. Looking for a pump & accessories that will make pumping easier when I am on the road (airports, airplanes, client sites).
I am leaning towards Medela Pump In Style Metro Bag option because I read reviews that detachable motor make going though security easier and the option to double pump is best in terms of time saving.
Wondering if I will be able to fit my laptop and a note pad into the Metro Bag along with pumping accessories so I only have to carry one bag.
Also, has anyone used this to pump at a client site or at the airport bathroom? Need to see how versatile this set up is when I will not have the luxury of pumping in a private room.
For those of you that travel - do you also carry a manual pump with you just in case? Do you think it will fit into the Metro Bag or shoud I just get carry on roller bag to lug everything in? What bags / set up are you using????
I greatly appreciate all of your help!

Give Now
Six out of 101 train cars derailed early Wednesday morning, causing some power outages.
The Environmental Protection Agency says the standards will help combat climate change, but Governor Mike Pence says the proposal could hurt Indiana's economy.
A coal to natural gas plant that could be built in Rockport is in the hands of the Indiana Supreme Court.
An Evansville-based coal company plans to create a new surface mine in southwestern Indiana near the Patoka River National Wildlife Refuge.
Indiana ranked 7th in the nation for coal production in 2010, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
The coal gasification plant that has been in construction for the past five years is operating commercially.
Sen. Jim Merritt says neither side in a case involving a proposed coal gasification plant in Rockport has any idea what the Supreme Court will decide.
The court is determining whether a contract between the state and the company in charge of the coal gasification plant is valid.
EPA regulations are putting a strain on older coal plants, including some in Indiana.
A mine in Southwestern Indiana stopped coal removal operations last week and has begun an environmental restoration process.

Chess piece
Carved ivory
16th century
Museum no. 2998-1856
This carved ivory chess piece shows a knight on horseback. The origins behind the game of chess are unclear, but it is recorded as early as the 6th century in India, China and Iran. It is generally believed that chess originated as a game of imaginary warfare, enabling players to test and enhance their strategic powers. The move of each of the pieces are also thought to reflect battle tactics. In battle (before the age of mechanical warfare), the cavalry would never advance head on, instead they mounted their attack from the side. This mirrors the move of the knight in the game of chess.

I think the premise for this hangout is very misguided. Reality is full of highly successful special interest groups that don't have any plans to broaden their agenda.
And Toiletbowl responds:
The "invalid premise†was actually well argued from a number of our panelists as perfectly parsimonious with reality, so I'm not sure how much of the panel you actually watched.
My emphasis.
I think Toiletbowl needs to hide behind a bush and pull out a dreaded, heretical dictionary.

Young player, born with Down Syndrome, gets moment to shine
Linda Lent said her son Michael was thrilled just to remain a part of the Walnut Creek Middle School sixth-grade basketball team when he was cut following tryouts.
Michael, who was born with Down syndrome, enthusiastically agreed to stay on when coach Jon Pulice offered to make him the team's manager.
Last week, Pulice surprised him with an expanded role.
Late in Walnut Creek's final regular-season game against Westlake, Pulice sent Lent onto the floor. A few minutes later -- and after a couple of missed shots -- he experienced every 12-year-old boy's dream by sinking a basket in a game the Wildcats wound up winning.
"It was just an unbelievable thrill for Michael and for our family," Linda Lent said Saturday.
The Wildcats carried Michael off the court afterward. He's spent the week watching recorded highlights of the shot and ensuing celebration that aired on WJET-TV and also made it onto CNN.
"He called his grandmother (Friday) and told her, 'Just put your TV on tonight and you can see it again,'" Linda Lent said with a laugh.
Pulice had coached Michael at Grandview Elementary School and in recreational leagues.
He said Lent can play, but added the level of competition in middle school had become a little too much for him this season.
Pulice wanted to keep him involved with the program, though, because of his close relationships with so many players on the team.
"Sometimes, the way things are today, I think we tend to forget that for these kids a big part of sports is just being a part of something bigger," Pulice said. "Michael is an integral part of our team. This was one of those life lessons, and the kids really rallied around him."
Pulice had contacted the Lents and Walnut Creek's administration before Tuesday's game to make sure it was alright to have Michael suit up.
When he got the OK, he issued a uniform to Lent and promised to try to get him on the floor if the opportunity arose.
Linda Lent and her husband, Thom, who had been released from the hospital only two days earlier following a surgical procedure, watched from the bleachers.
"My husband wasn't supposed to be out of the house, but he said there was no way he was going to miss it," Linda Lent said. "Jon has been incredible with Michael, and the kids and everybody at Walnut Creek have been so inclusive of him. It's been a great experience for us."
After hitting the shot, Michael went to Pulice with one more request.
"He asked me if he could start the next game," Pulice said.

As measured in decerebrate cats, inspiratory air flow resistance initially reduces the tidal volume and frequency of respiration. The reduction in tidal volume is aggravated by pentobarbital, nitrous oxide, or ether. If the flow resistance persists, there is a gradual recovery in the volume of ventilation, but even in the unanesthetized state this is not complete at the end of five minutes. Ventilation is reduced with increased airway resistance in spite of augmented muscular activity. The reduction of ventilation is proportional to the magnitude of the resistance.

The Ann Arbor News/MLive Media Group is seeking nominees for its 2013 Deals of the Year event — a black-tie awards ceremony that honors the business decisions that had the most impact in the region over the previous year.
The event will be held Nov. 1 at the Ann Arbor Marriott Ypsilanti at Eagle Crest.
In 2012, nearly 450 local and statewide leaders attended the ceremony, including Gov. Rick Snyder, who delivered a speech about a new talent-matching initiative to help align education with jobs.
Through Sept. 30, the public can submit nominations for the 2013 Company of the Year and Executive of the Year, as well as the deals, announcements or transactions that fit seven sector categories:
- Construction and development
- Nonprofit
- Technology
- Restaurants
- Health care
- Commercial real estate
- Retail
The "Deals" year runs from Oct. 1, 2012, to Sept. 30, 2013.
Three nominees will then be revealed in each of the seven sector categories in early October, and winners are announced at the event on Nov. 1. Nominees are not announced in the Executive of the Year and Company of the Year categories.
In 2012, Menlo Innovations' Rich Sheridan was awarded the Executive of the Year award, and Bank of Ann Arbor won the 2012 Company of the Year award.
Other past winners of Company of the Year include: Foresee (2011), Zingerman's (2010), Arboretum Ventures (2009), HealthMedia (2008), NSF International (2007) and Google (2006).
Past winners of Executive of the Year include: Michelle and Aaron Crumm of Adaptive Materials Inc. (2011), Serial entrepreneur Jeff Williams (2010), Esperion Therapeutics CEO Roger Newton (2008), former Pfizer site leader David Canter (2007), McKinley CEO Albert Berriz (2006).
The Ann Arbor Business Review — whose brand was absorbed by AnnArbor.com when it launched in summer 2009 — created the Deals of the Year event in 2005.
Lizzy Alfs is a business reporter for The Ann Arbor News. Reach her at 734-623-2584, email her email@example.com or follow her on Twitter.

Local auction houses continue to woo holiday shoppers with sales emphasizing decorative objects generally expected to bring three- and low four-figure prices - except for two. Here are a few examples in chronological order and starting with the two exceptions.
At noon Friday in Lambertville, Rago Arts and Auction Center will get in the Hanukkah spirit with a 367-lot sale featuring Judaica, silver, currency, and coins, with the silver expected to bring the top prices. Among the dozen or so opening lots is a set of eight Russian silver pieces presented to the builder of a spur of the Trans-Siberian Railway to the once-important Russian town of Catherinburg (Ekaterinburg); it has a presale estimate of $8,000 to $12,000, according to Rago's online catalog at www.ragoarts.com. An eight-piece Tiffany & Co. coffee service should bring $12,000 to $15,000. The Judaica ranges from a circa 1944 Torah ark curtain ($300 to $500) to a circa 1862, possibly Polish, gilt and silver Torah crown ($2,000 to $3,000).

ROBBIE RESCUE RUNS ROUGH Story: Roger Makings
JOHN RUDLING knew he was in trouble when the engine of his Robinson R22 helicopter spluttered and lost power just five feet into the hover – not because he was making an unscheduled touchdown, but rather because of where he was.
The aircraft is operated by G4 Helicopters, at Margate Airport, and, since the loss of the company's R44 earlier this year, it was the only means of keeping the students busy. There was another problem. The R22 was on a verge near a very deserted beach on the rugged Transkei coast – not famous for its roads or communications.
Some idea of the work and materials which were required to get the damaged R22 from its crash site on to the back of the truck for transportation to the nearest road.
After a cursory inspection, Rudling realised that the aircraft was not going anywhere in a hurry. The engine had blown a valve. "I called the chairman of the Margate Light Plane Club, Des Potts, to see if he could organise some technical assistance. It would soon be getting dark and a night in the bush seemed inevitable,'' he told me.
Members of the club rallied and soon pilots Dean Riley, Gordon Gray and Sachin Meda, and their aircraft, were thrown into the rescue effort. Supplies, materials and club members were flown in to assist.
The loading completed, the journey begins.
A plan was made to airlift the R22 off the beach and place it on a nearby road where it could be trucked back to Margate. Quoted costs soon put paid to that option. "But even so, we were still never going to get that aircraft out of there,'' said Rudling, a part owner and flying instructor at G4 . That was until Mntafufu farmer, Gordon Date, happened along.
Suddenly things started to happen. A truck appeared, a local headman provided overnight security for the helicopter, labourers were made available and food and accommodation appeared from nowhere. A trailer was borrowed from local farmer, Revell Saint. "But we needed a plan. We were about 14 km from where Revell's trailer was parked. We had nothing more than a Land Cruiser truck, some scaffolding planks and harnesses.
Everyone holds their breath as the truck begins a climb towards the forrest.
"The salvage was coming together. We could possibly drive the chopper out, but only if we removed the blades and the tail boom," said Rudling Again Farmer Date came to the party. He had a small boat which could carry the boom and blades on the river to a point close to the road.
Club members got to work stripping the aircraft of its long and dangly bits and built a makeshift ramp on the truck. Eventually with the help of countless farm labourers, the chopper was hoisted on to the back of the truck and secured.
"'Now came the really difficult part. We had nothing more than a bad excuse for a road, sometimes reduced to a pathway, to take us over the hills and through a forest. We were going to have to hack our way out. But," added Rudling, "there was no way in hell that I was going to drive the truck." Irrepressible Gordon Date again stepped up to the mark. It was his truck and his farm. He would do it.
Hacking their way through the bush, the team inches the truck forward.
''I more than once thought the chopper was going to fall off the truck. I also, more than once, thought the truck was going to roll over, but they never did.'' The group of men trudged along next to the truck, lifting branches out of the way or cutting them down as Gordon manoeuvred the unwieldy load through the thick vegetation and over the rough track, with the vehicle often leaning at a precarious angle.
It took more than three hours for the expedition to travel the 14 km to the main road where the aircraft was transferred to the trailer and driven back to Margate.
"Never in my life have I encountered so many people so willing to give selflessly of their time and expertise and not expect anything in return. Gordon did not work on his farm for five days to help us. Revell bent over backwards to lend us equipment and three of our pilots gave up their time and fuel to bail us out. Not to mention the ordinary members who dropped what they were doing and flew out to help us retrieve the chopper. I am truly blessed.''
Success. All that remains to be done is to transfer the helicopter on to a road trailer and take it to Margate.

Prateik (born 28 November 1986 as Prateik Babbar[2]) is an Indian actor. He is the son of late actress Smita Patil and actor turned politician Raj Babbar.
Babbar assisted advertisement filmmaker Prahlad Kakkar for a year as a production assistant. During this time Babbar was cast in advertisement films for several companies, including KitKat.[3]
Babbar made his acting debut in the Aamir Khan production, Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na alongside Imran Khan and Genelia D'Souza. His portrayal of the annoying, attention-seeking brother of Genelia's character won him critical appreciation as well as numerous awards.[4] At the 54th Filmfare Awards, Babbar received a Special Jury certificate, as well as nominations for Best Male Debut and Best Supporting Actor.[5][6] The film went on to become a major commercial success.[3]
Following this initial success, he appeared in films which earned him little recognition.[7] In 2011, Babbar appeared in four films, the first of which was Kiran Rao's Dhobi Ghaat, which opened to positive reviews at film festivals worldwide.[4] Babbar also featured in the action-thriller Dum Maro Dum alongside Abhishek Bachchan and Rana Daggubati, and in the Prakash Jha-directed social drama Aarakshan with Amitabh Bachchan, Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone. Also, in 2011, he acted opposite Kalki Koechlin in My Friend Pinto. His subsequent films include Ekk Deewana Tha and Issaq, both of which underperformed at the box office.[7] He is currently shooting for Saurav Chakraborty's Bengali film titled Auroni Taukhon with Paoli Dam.[8]
Personal life[edit]
Babbar was born on 28 November 1986 and is the son of the actor-politician Raj Babbar by the actress Smita Patil.[8][9][10] His mother died due to complications in child birth when Prateik was born.[11] Prateik was raised by his maternal grandparents in Mumbai. He has said in interviews that he had a strained relationship with his father while growing up, as his father was "always busy with his other family." However, he has also stated that he and his father were reconciled after Prateik grew to adulthood.[8] Prateik's step-mother is the actress Nadira Babbar and his half-siblings are Arya Babbar and Juhi Babbar, who are also actors.[12]
In 2011, during the filming of Ekk Deewana Tha, he began a relationship with Amy Jackson and got a tattoo reading her name on his left arm. They broke up the following year.[13]
