New for Christmas:
"Because of Bethlehem" with Max Lucado (28:00)
Max Lucado loves Christmas! Because somewhere, someone will ask the Christmas questions, and the answers Max shares are sure to give us all hope!
And in his new special, Max, the master story-teller, tells stories from his childhood, his family, his life—stories to draw the listener to the Christ of Christmas. . .in a narrative drama whose characters will take you to the biblical scene: With Mary and Joseph as the innkeeper turns them away, in the temple court when Herod demands a search for the baby Jesus, as Simeon makes his way through the crowds of Jerusalem to see Jesus!
And the question: "Would you let Jesus love you?"
"Where Christmas Never Ends" with Carter Conlon (28:00)
In a most enjoyable and unique Christmas special celebration, Carter Conlon shares not only his message but his music! Interspersed with God's Word, he weaves in stories surrounding the music he's not only written, but which he performs beautifully in this special for the whole family. You'll find yourself enjoying its "sing along" charm, and at the same time, hearing a powerful message from God's Word of God's gift of His Son. In music and message, it's the miraculous story surrounding where Christmas never ends!
For Easter:
One Perfect Life: "Jesus of Nazareth" (25:00). ..a Palm Sunday Special with John MacArthur
Fully dramatized. . .the Scripture used "word-for-word" from the four Gospels-following Jesus through His final week before His death on the cross-is the powerful ministry of Jesus of Nazareth-including an invitation to accept Christ from host, John MacArthur.
One Perfect Life: "Jesus the Messiah" (25:00). . .an Easter Special with John MacArthur
Dramatized throughout in the words of Scripture, we follow those who were present with Jesus the Messiah in His death on the Cross, His burial and glorious Resurrection-with an invitation by host John MacArthur to make Jesus Lord and Savior.
"Come to the Cross" (25:00)-an Easter Special with Max Lucado
In an inspiring and encouraging special from Max Lucado, he invites us to step closer and closer to the Cross of Christ-where we will experience more of His grace-more than we deserve."
"A Resurrection Life" (26:00)-an Easter Special with Pastor Carter Conlon
In this Easter message, Carter Conlon, Pastor of Times Square Church, reminds every believer in Christ, that a Resurrection life is promised by Christ Himself. Jesus said: "I am the Resurrection and the life". . .a life in which all things become new.
And in what may seem an unusual context, Carter Conlon uses as his text, the 23rd Psalm. And in that synopsis of David's life, we can see our life under n
ew leadership and new ownership.
Carter's own testimony of accepting Christ just further amplifies this compelling message of a Resurrected life!
For National Day of Prayer:
"Prayer That Can Move Mountains" (25:00) with Pastor Carter Conlon
Helping to mark this year's National Day of Prayer event, Carter reminds us that an effective prayer life isn't simply the "lay-me-down-to-sleep" kind-- we need to practice the power of prayer that literally transforms lives.
Pastor Conlon speaks from experience. At age 24, suffering panic attacks that left him cowering in his room, he accepted Christ. And he believed God's Word. Taking his Bible and opening it to the only verses he knew, he prayed and trusted God to take away his fear. God not only did that but He instilled a lifelong passion for prayer that is the hallmark of Times Square Church and Pastor Conlon's ministry.
For Mother's Day:
"Prayer That Moves Heaven" (26:00) with Anne Graham Lotz
What if, this Mother's Day, every mother in America made a commitment to pray daily for her children? And what if every woman in America prayed in such a way that Heaven is moved and our nation is changed?
In this 2016 Mother's Day special, Anne Graham Lotz is joined by her youngest daughter, Rachel-Ruth Wright as they together share the impact of God's Word and prayer in the recent loss of Anne's husband, Danny Lotz.
Both mom and daughter reflect on the enormous influence in prayer on their lives by Anne's mother, Ruth Bell Graham, as well. Anne concludes by encouraging women to pray in such a way--as Daniel did--that Heaven is moved and our nation is changed!
Contact email@example.com for details and clearance.
For the 2016 Olympic Games (August 5-21):
"The Bible: Impacting the 2016 Olympic Games" (25:00)
Every weekday "The Book" (from Museum of the Bible) focuses on the Bible's influence and impact over the centuries. And now anticipating the Summer Olympic Games again capturing national attention, we've created a powerful half-hour special underscoring the influence of the Bible on the traditions of the Olympic Games as well as on the lives of its athletes. This creative special will remind and inspire listeners of the Bible's impact in every sphere -- including sports!
For Patriot's Day (9/11):
"Beyond 9/11: The Impact of Prayer"
(28:00) with Carter Conlon
From the heart of Manhattan, hear the deeply moving story of the work of Times Square Church at a moment that remains one of the most significant in U.S. history. And be encouraged to hear how God uniquely prepared this body of believers to minister in a time of crisis.
Scriptural truths from Pastor Carter Conlon are woven throughout the special as a reminder that prayer is the key to being ready to respond—whether that's at a time of national disaster, or whether that's in giving an answer for faith in the workplace.
It's a powerful and deeply moving remembrance of 9/11 … with the strongest of biblical foundations as the platform for impacting our culture then … and now.
For Christmas:
"One Perfect Life: Christmas Edition"
(2 specials/25:00 each or combined for one 50:00 special)
One Perfect Life by John MacArthur is the setting for the story of Jesus Christ in the very words of Scripture, blending all four Gospels in a harmonized life of Christ in two Christmas specials. Both fully dramatized narratives depict the persons characterized in the Gospel account. Each special is unique to itself and proclaims the Gospel message clearly through the birth and life of Christ.
Narrated and dramatized from the very words of Scripture and with descriptive commentary by John MacArthur we present:
"A Son is Given " (25:00). . heralding the birth of John the Baptist and the astounding announcement from the angel Gabriel to Mary of the coming birth of Christ. It presents a picture of the precious time between Mary and Elizabeth, Mary's Magnificat and Zacharias' benediction, the worship and praise of the shepherds who journey to Bethlehem to proclaim the given Son. It is Christ coming to earth!
"Immanuel, God With Us" (25:00). . .transports us to Bethlehem just after the birth of Christ to those days of Herod's decree that all children two years of age are to be killed, of Jesus as a young boy teaching in the temple, of His baptism by John the Baptist signaling the beginning of His earthly ministry—culminating in His last hours on the Cross, His death, burial and resurrection as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
"From the Manger to the Cross" (50:00). . .combines the two Christmas specials into one seamless dramatization of Christ's coming to earth to His resurrection.
"No Room in the Inn"
(26:00) with Carter Conlon
The special opens in ancient Bethlehem in a dramatic reading of the Scripture in Luke 2:1-14—proclaiming the challenge of the Bethlehem story—when an innkeeper decided there was "no room in the inn."
There was a knock at the door, a plea for a place to birth a child. But someone would have to give up a bed, a place at the table, the cries of a newborn might disturb the sleep and suddenly it just became easier to say, "We're sorry, there's no room."
You'll hear a stirring testimony of a young woman who knocked on a door and there was room in the inn! And her life was forever changed.
Carter's message is to alert the people of God of that knock on the door—that phone call, someone who needs food, a lonely person with no family. This Christmas there will be a knock at our door! The question is: Do we open the door? Do we make room in the inn?
"A Christmas Carol"
(3-part special for 2-hour block/1 hr. 39 min.)
Charles Dickens was just 12 years old when he saw first-hand the devastating effects of child labor. He never forgot those images. In 1843 he wrote a pamphlet titled: "An Appeal to the People of England, on Behalf of the Poor Man's Child" It became the story of Dickens' "A Christmas Carol."
How appropriate that Focus on the Family would bring to life this most famous story of the mean-spirited, miserly Scrooge who in one momentous night is confronted by his own lack of compassion-and given the opportunity to change not only his life, but the lives of a family!
The world has told the story many times—but none more to the point than in this Focus on the Family Radio Theater presentation of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol." Make this the first year of many to bring to your family, your children and grandchildren a message that defines the spirit of the season of Christ's birth, of His loving compassion.

In this special Adventures in Odyssey Christmas marathon, listeners will enjoy classic episodes like "Gifts for Madge and Guy," "Peace on Earth" and "A Time for Christmas."
For New Year's Eve / New Year's Day:
"Waiting for the Ball to Drop"
(26:00) with Carter Conlon
Where will you be this New Year's Eve? As the famous New Year's Eve ball descends from the flagpole at One Times Square, over a million people will be in Times Square, with over a billion watching from around the world, waiting for the ball to drop—to say farewell to 2015 and celebrate hope for the year ahead.
And in the midst of all the revelers is Times Square Church—as Carter Conlon brings a message for the New Year—just a few thousand feet from where everyone will gather to look up at the ball on top of the tower—waiting for it to come down—hoping for a better day.
It's from this unique vantage point that Carter brings a challenging message—a message to millions whose back is to the very altar of God—millions facing the altar of a secular society—waiting for the ball to drop—waiting and hoping!
Carter's message is the message of this hour—from the Scripture in 1 Kings when the people of Bael (ironically pronounced Ball) are looking to the top of the mountain worshiping a false God when all they have to do is turn around and see the altar of God. His message and the testimony of a Broadway actor and a former modern-day Mafia member are words of truth you won't soon forget!

Pros: Very good replacement for the slower drive in my Eee PC 1000. You have to update the BIOS to get it to work with SATA. Immediately noticed the difference and installed Windows 7. Runs that and office 2007 great! Windows reports that my drive is fast enough that ReadyBoost is disabled because it won't make any noticable difference. Very easy to install.

Golden Globe Round Up 2011
Monday, January 17, 2011
In 2009 The Golden Globe ceremony didn't have a host. The actors/actresses just came out to present and announce the winner. I don't remember what they did for an opening, but a joke monologue isn't the only way to open the show with energy.
I don't want to be a Pollyanna or someone who only accepts niceties and tact, but I felt some of host Ricky Gervais', blunt, roast type humor may have been unnecessary. Do I feel this way because we're talking about Hollywood Royalty, like Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie? Maybe. But on the other hand, if they have a movie that bombs, shouldn't it be allowed to stink out in the open?
You know I don't like jokes about my man Robert Downey, Jr., but he's self-effacing enough to take it; and truthfully, I thought his presentation to the Motion Picture Best Actresses, could have been a lot smoother and less overtly smarmy (click HERE for speech).
But let's move on to the fashion. In my opinion, the style of dress for the Golden Globes should be markedly different from the Oscars. After all, it's supposed to be a big party. Round tables filled with food and drink, people nominated for categories, but sitting way, way in the back unable to find a path to the stage. This is not the place for ball gowns, and tuxedos are boring. The formality of the Academy Awards necessitates them, but for the Golden Globe Awards, I'd like to see the men in jackets, open collar shirts, designer suits. The women in sophisticated cocktail dresses or two piece ensembles, as long as it's not a two piece atrocity the likes of Tilda Swinton. Her outfit looked as if moments before going on stage to present, some careless, drunk celeb, spilled a glass of red wine on her dress. They rushed her backstage where a producer took off his dress shirt, a chubby production assistant took off her skirt, they hastily dressed Swinton in the items and said, "Go, your on!"
The other dress catastrophe was Julianna Moore in that fuchsia, one arm, unfinished drape, held up by a tacky headband doubling as a necklace. (And I criticized Ricky Gervais for being insulting).
The Emerald City look - Not sure. Feel free to comment - Mila Kunis, Catherine Zeta Jones, Angelina Jolie.
This year, I'd have to say the women in black were my favorites - Halle Berry (always stunning), Eva Longoria and Melissa Leo, although understated, perfect choice for her.Sandra Bullock's dramatic bangs were a little heavy, but fun to see a new look for her. Annette Bening's hair was crazy mother of four, out of control. Natalie Portman's hair was too controlled, but good dress draping over the baby bump.Click HERE for more fashion photos from the evening.
Was glad Christian Bale did win Best Supporting Actor for his role as Dickie Eklund in The Fighter. Although, it's arrogant when a person won't wrap up their speech. Recently, I posted commentary on a film "Out of Focus" that's a take on Bale's on set rant of 2009 (click HERE to read).
Colin Firth is wonderful in The King's Speech. He's so earnest in the role, taking the character of King George VI down to size, so it becomes a story about working through personal fears and finding inner strength. But I would rather Firth win the Oscar and felt Jesse Eisenberg, deserved the Golden Globe.
Glad The Social Network was the big winner in the other categories - Best Director- David Fincher, Best Screenplay -Aaron Sorkin, and Best Motion Picture. Black Swan and True Grit will most likely give them a run for their money come Oscars. Speaking of which, Natalie Portman gave the most natural, warm, time correct and professional speech of the night.
Al Pacino was none of those things. Was someone escorting him back to the nursing home at the end of the night? Robert De Niro's Cecil B. Demille Award acceptance speech, was pretty good, seems like he's got good perspective on his legacy and the industry in general.
So that's Tinsel & Tine's little wrap up of The Hollywood Foreign Press Association's big night!
Other than to say, Thanks mainly to Philadelphia Film Society, I have seen a gang of the films noted this year (below links go to my commentary on each film):
Alice In Wonderland, 127 Hours, Black Swan, Blue Valentine, Burlesque, Country Strong, Despicable Me, I Am Love, Inception, Rabbit Hole, Red, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of The Dawn Treader, The Fighter, The Kids Are All Right, The King's Speech, The Social Network, The Tourist, The Town, Toy Story 3, Wall Street:Money Never Sleeps and Winter's Bone
Mark your calendars for Sunday, February 27th

An aerial view of Roosevelt Island, before demolition of Goldwater Hospital. Photo by Mathew Lloyd/RooseveltIslander
We've written a lot of articles on New York City's islands, both abandoned and in use. While the city itself is interesting and filled with cool history and things to do, its islands, such as North Brother's Island, Hart Island, Governors Island, and Rikers Island, also have some intriguing sights. Now, it's time to rediscover New York City's Roosevelt Island – a residential, 2-mile long island packed with interesting secrets.
"N.Y. Post Office Pneumatic Tube" c. 1912. G.G. Bain Collection via Flickr.
Earlier this month, we found an NYC coffee shop designed to sort, roast, and transport its coffee beans around the store through the use of vacuum-aided pneumatic tubes. Almost two years ago, we found evidence of New York's pneumatic-tube aided mail system, 27 miles long, connecting 23 post offices, and retired in 1953.
Today, we'll show you where some remnants of the system are and where pneumatic tubes are still used in the city.
Mike Caswell, founder of NYC's Roasting Plant coffee shops, has an engineering degree. To be completely honest, there isn't any away he couldn't have an engineering degree, judging from the system of vacuum-aided pneumatic tubes that automatically sort, roast, and transport a variety of coffee beans around the space of his two Manhattan stores. He calls the whole setup Javabot, the roasting component of which is visible through the store's window and is frequently Instagram-ed by passersby.
The New York City subway carries many secrets, like any extensive system that was built over time. But the NYC subway also comes with it quite a bit of lore–from its urban explorers who have explored every nook of its vastness, the technological feat it was to build in some of the toughest Manhattan schist, and its evolution from high-class experiment to mass ridership.
No list of subway secrets can be complete, so we see this article as an evolving entity. We've started with our favorite secrets but encourage you all to comment and Tweet at us (@untappedcities) with other hidden gems. Special thanks to Matt Litwack, author of Beneath the Streets: The Hidden Relics of New York's Subway System for contributing his finds to this piece.
Photo via Twitter user Tim Wallace
As we've mentioned before, New York City's original pneumatic tube mail network has a fairly interesting history, transporting mail–and once, even a cat–throughout the city from 1897 to 1953. There are some remnants of the 27-mile postal system (which linked 23 post offices) still viewable to the intrepid, but images like this early-twentieth-century map reveal the extent of the unique delivery system and the promise it once held, as well as how some destinations on the network have evolved.
Diagram of how the vacuum system would be used in homes and how the waste would be handled in the cleaning plant. Image from Science and Invention's August 1922 issue, sourced from Paleofuture.
It's hard to imagine NYC without its current sewer systems, but before the advent of remotely monitored sewer systems, the city not only directly monitored its sewers, but it was also considered perfectly acceptable to dump raw waste into the ocean before the Ocean Dumping Act was enforced in 1991.
Even with these modern-day waste issues, however, the city sewer system has improved a great deal since the turn of the 20th century. Before modern sewage, New York once had piles of trash lined up on the streets, creating a strong fecal odor composed of horse manure and urine.

The traditional way gamers are used to buying their games -- dropping $60 and then determining if it's something they like -- isn't a fair method in the mind of Easy Studios general manager Ben Cousins. In fact, he says it's a "really harsh business model" and is "exploitative."
Easy Studios is the developer behind EA free-to-play games Battlefield Heroes, Battlefield Play4Free, Lord of Ultima, and Battleforge. So naturally Cousins is a proponent of that particular model, which allows gamers to try out games with no risk before determining if it's something they want to invest money in.
"I can't think of anything more exploitative than gating all of your content behind having to pay someone $60," he told Rock, Paper, Shotgun. "That's a really harsh business model if you think about it objectively."
The free-to-play game model, on the other hand, is much different -- as Cousins describes it, "It's a try before you buy model." But the way it will operate in the west "is not set yet." He continued, "At GDC this year there was conversation going on about all the different ways you can monetise free-to-play games. You've got people selling advantages, you've got people selling content, you've got people selling energy that allows you to play as much as you like. That's more of a case of each game trying to work out what's best for its audience and mechanics."
Contrasting the $60 model with what Easy Studios' games are doing, Cousins explained, "What we do is enable everyone to play the game, and figure out if they like it. If they don't like it they can walk away and they don't lose anything. How many times have we all bought crappy games for $60, right? And the majority of people in our game spend less than that â?? the cost of a full-priced game. So what we're selling is a cheaper than full price game that you can try before you buy. If you choose to buy at all."
It's strange to hear Cousins -- an employee of Electronic Arts -- bash the $60 model. Even though the company is clearly expanding into other avenues, those full-priced retail games are a big part of what the company produces.
Easy's newest game, Battlefield Play4Free, will be going into beta in April. Codes to get in will be distributed in a number of ways, though anyone who owns a previous Battlefield game will get an easy, early ticket in on March 31.

Hey guys....Posted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by GenesisDoes
Remember when Nintendo64 games were $59.99? I do. I Payed $60 for a copy of Super Mario 64. And some game were even more expensive, Hexen was $90, Smash Bros was $80.
I do mis that golden period of $40 and $50 console games though.
memoriesPosted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by troopershades
I paid $90 for N64's Goldeneye back in the day. It was one of those games I had to have. I think I might have paid upwards of $70 for 7th Guest, cant remember. But one thing that grinds my gears as of late is some PC titles hitting the $60 mark like thier console cousins...(Thanks Activision) Now Im just patient and wait for it to go on sale on Steam or something. (Thanks Valve!) I will say this though...no matter what EA charges for Battlefield 3, I will pay it. I must...have.

Besides...Posted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by learningKnight
You want to know what's exploitative? Giving a game away for free and then charging you for every damn weapon or piece of armor, or making you grind through 20 hours of bullshit just to unlock a gun that some spoiled rich kid bought for $10. I fucking hate that shit.
Hmm, let's do the math on this one...Posted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by learningKnight
So if I go the movies (or hell, buy a Blu-Ray) it runs me about $15 - $20 dollars (or more) for 2 hours of passive entertainment... if I buy Mass Effect 2 it's $60 for 40+ hours of active entertainment... that's a much better value.
The math becomes a lot worse when you're spending $60 for an 8 hour game... but the value is STILL better than dropping $20 bucks on a movie, at least in terms of "entertainment hours per dollar". And frankly, I *usually* enjoy each hour of gaming more than each hour of a movie.
Still, there could be room for improvement... I always liked the now-defuct Instant Action's model of allowing you to try the game on a pro-rated basis... if you kept playing until you had been charged the game's full price, you then owned the game and could (obviously) continue playing for free.

I tend to go to matinees if I go to the theatre, and I don't buy the concession food. Also, I rarely pay more than 10 dollars for a movie. Like I remarked in an earlier post, I am cheap as hell. haha
But you are right in that you often get more bang for your buck when purchasing video games versus other modes of visual entertainment. Buying a season or entire series of a television show is also like that. You pay more, but you get a lot more, also.
But those things I feel are also overpriced. I see why the studios, whether they be movie or game studios, charge so much. I mean, they DO spend millions making these things. They want at least to make their money back. But if they charged less, perhaps more people would buy, so they'd still make their money back. There's also nothing wrong with making things on a smaller scale. I don't need every movie or game to be crazy epic huge.

No Used GamesPosted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by Leelu
I hate purchasing games at full price, and I rarely do, but I don't buy them used, either. For one thing, there is often only a 5 dollar difference. For another, when you buy a game used, the developer doesn't see a penny of it.
Only GameStop or whoever you bought it from gets profit, and I mean crazy amounts of profit. Those stores buy those games back for a few dollars, if that, and then turn around and sell it for almost full price half the time.
I don't want to support shitty stores with over-priced minimum selection. I want to support the content makers, especially the ones that create genuinely good games. And you just don't do that by buying used.
And yeah, I know I kind of went off on a tangent there, but meh.
But yes, I agree, sixty dollars is too high a price point. I thought 50 dollars was too high a price point. Shoot, I'm so cheap, I'm usually hesitant to pay 30 dollars for a game. I never buy a game when it's brand spanking new, because I refuse to pay such high prices. I just can't afford that shit.
"Free-to-play" isn't necessarily a better model, though. It depends on the developer, I suppose, because some will take terrible advantage and charge out the ass for every tiny little thing. Of course, there are also people who are making 60 dollar games who are doing that, too, which is just utterly ridiculous.
I don't totally get it..Posted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by ChomskyKnows
As a publisher, a major one, EA can set pricing can they not? So lower your pricing EA???
$60 probably is too much given the garbage economy. Nevertheless, I've rarely paid full price for a new title on release day due to one Amazon promo after another...
Cyrsis2 comes with $6 off and future $10 promo (off next order), free shipping and no tax (where I live).
Portal2 comes with $5 off and future $20 promo (off next order).
There was some crazy special where you could get Need For Speed Hot Pursuit for around $35 (I think??) on release day...
And so on...
These titles can of course be sold on Ebay, Amazon Marketplace sellers (or traded back in) and thus more money right back into your pocket...I've occasionally sold titles back and ended up paying near net $0 after the whole buy/play/sell transaction is done...With all the discounting, trade-ins, and coupons, I'm not sure the system itself is exploitative. Perhaps if these things didn't exist it might be...
The forcing buyers of used titles to pay for online play (some of which already pay for online play to begin with via XBLG, etc) is completely exploitative -- it's like a double-tax. Even titles with no real online elements are trying to force used buyers to do stuff this (Mass Effect 2, etc)

Really?Posted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by GalileoAce
$60 is not all that much. I'd *love* to be able to pay $60 for a new release AAA title. Us Australians pays up to $120 in some cases, though the majority is around $90. A couple of years ago this sort of made some sort of distorted (non)sense, when the Australian dollar was buying about 50 US cents. But now the Australian and US dollars are at parity. And Australian game prices have barely moved in the last 7 years or so. So you think paying $60 for games is an exploitative business model? Then what we Aussies pay must be downright gouging.
WoW!Posted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by PapaPhewpills
Thats insaine! It's hard to believe people would pay that much for a game there! Are there ways to get around it at all, such as the net? Shoot, new systems are almost $120, but a game?
Not the samePosted: Jun 11, 2011 12:00AM PST by Wutan
The problem is not the 60 $ for a AAA title game. I wouldn't mind paying that much for let's say Mass Effect 3. But when games that are officially recognized as crap, for example, The First templar (crappy game) that is still months after release sold on Steam for almost 50 €...
So my point is, pay the money for a good game, don't expect the same for crap. And let's be honest 90 % of what is released nowadays is crap, just priced like gold.
WhenPosted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by luminaire28
they stop charging $60 for the same game with minimal changes every year i'll believe they are serious about this.
What are they doing?Posted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by Kenster1991
I don't not understand why they are rehashing Battlefield 2? Also how are they paying for rank servers? I am guessing you will have to pay them when you want to unlock weapons?
I don't see where they are going with this, and what will happen when the release BF3, will they shut down the support and servers for this Play4Free?
Lie!Posted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by EKGTrooper
Free to Play games are the MOST exploitative games you can buy. I love how this fool is trying to make it seem otherwise. They WOULD NOT be doing i if it wasn't making them more money. They are a business. They are not going to invest in something long term like Free to Play games when it is going to make them less money. What a fool for thinking he can convince us otherwise.
Free to Play games are a scam. You get to try it for free, sure, but soon you are bombarded with offers to exchange real world money for in game goods. Whant to play longer than one hour? You have to pay us. Want to unlock that Rocket Launcher? You have to pay us. Want more Ammo? You have to pay us. Want this extra map? You have to pay us. Want this Tank? You have to pay us.
You would end up spending MORE than $60 on a free to play game to get everything out of the game. With a retail game, you spend $60 and you get to play it as much as you want. Take Black Ops, there is already a ton of maps and unlockables. You can play for 30 hours and not unlock everything. If you want some extra maps, you can pay for it. For $60 you are getting a ton of content.
If Call of Duty went free to play, you would pay for everything. If you added it all up, I guarantee you you are paying more in the end, not less. This is why they love the Free to Play model. They are making a ton off of it by fooling you into thinking it is something it isn't. That is why they love calling it "Free to Play". Makes it seem cool, right? Makes it seem like you are getting something for nothing.
Half the StoryPosted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by WarCriminal
There is probably quite a bit of truth to your argument. It is conceivable, however, that they can increase profits by charging less. Offering the chance to play for free broadens the audience. If the audience averages $40 in purchases, but they get twice as many people to play, then they have increased profits. Especially when there is no physical product manufacture or delivery involved.
Yeah its..Posted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by sj420
The way they are doing the "Free to play" model Is what is exploitative.
A real free to play game will be free, but simply offer OPTIONAL purchasable goods. The game itself and its content, story, items, etc will be free and there wouldn't be any monthly charge or what not. - ..The idea behind the F2P model is that after the creator finishes the game and they try a subscription model they realize that they can't get enough customers because the subscription model only suits specific people. The F2P model caters to anybody that can use and know about the product essentially. The main point being is that the game is finished and its content is free to play. The idea behind having purchasable goods is to increase the longevity of the game itself and bring in any additional income if its out there (which if the product is reasonable, it will be). Adding in optional goods that do not affect the main game itself. Kind of like expansions except without the additional software requirement. Something that the game's team can work on (earning their money) and sell (to gain more money by earning it through working like making new areas, equipments, spells, quests, stories, etc etc etc, whatever) in the game world that already exists (a modular game world, in a sense).
Where this idea has seemingly gotten poisoned is on the business end of it, again read the long ass reply at the bottom of the page by me to get an idea of wtf they are doing wrong - business practice wise. Instead of seeing it in a logical and reasonable fashion they are blinded by money and so they see it as selling the independent parts of the game itself and thats why we are in this situation we are in now. The cause of all this malpractice is simply ignorance and greed mixed in with some over-spending in some areas.
Anyone ever play Phantasy Star Universe? Take that paperweight as an example of what Not to do with your game. Do not lock content that already exists in the game. Do not take a winning formula and mutilate it beyond repair. Do not Toy with your consumer base that you gain through diligent work, because it Can and Will be lost due to stupidity. (KFC character in PSP phantasy star game? Give me an f-ing break, not that I care because I don't even want a psp1 haven't for years but its still distasteful for an IP that was so well loved for being an in-depth and immersive RPG. As for adding a stupid chicken colonel, it is not something that adds depth or character to the game, in any form and I suppose the only reason they did it was because it paid. Bad Sega, BAD! No mutant headless, featherless, beak-less, genetically altered KFC chicken for you!). If I was of the creative talent that made Phantasy star I Wouldn't let such a pride and joy, flagship IP be destroyed by what seems to be a bunch of money hungry washups.

My Two CentsPosted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by WolvenOne
Free to play as a buisness model is fine, for certain games. For online multiplayer games where people are expected to invest a lot of time it makes sense to nickle and penny them over a long period of time to make your profit.
For other games, not so much. Try as I might I cannot see how games where you play once then drop forever could possibly survive on the free to play model. This isn't to say that it is entirely fair, $60 dollars is a lot to pay for a game you may not like, and a demo isn't sufficient as sometimes games don't maintain a high level of quality the entire way through.
A good compromise might be $40 or less for the retail copies of the game, but break some of the side content into DLC. Lets say you spend thirty dollars on the main single player campaign, you like it so you drop five dollars on the multiplayer, and five dollars on mission expansions that add new levels and items. You very well could go all the way back up to $60 for that game, but if you don't like it you can stop with the thirty bucks you spent on the single player.
It seems that a lot of developers try this already, but they do it for games that cost sixty dollars already. I've always thought that was a lot like trying to have your cake and eating it too.
DLC...Posted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by MrNicEgUy76
i believe if companies really want to continue charging us that price for new games then the dlc should be free or at a reduced cost (since nearly all games have or are going to have some form of it) it would make the $60 price tag not seem so steep if it comes with post release dlc codes, just an option to test the waters or have a game for $40 and no post dlc codes included, but when it comes to their money and since the majority of people already pay that much for games, i'm sure it will be a looooong time before anything significant comes around.
$60Posted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by MarioDragon
Is a freaking huge load of money. Blizzard and Bethesda are the only people I'll pay that much for. I mean, $60 can buy:
Half a tank to a tank of gas (depending on prices..)
An above McDonald's date with a chick
Another above Mcdonald's date with a chick
Food for a week
Pay my electricity bill
Buy something to make my computer a tiny bit better
Instead of buying a disc with fancy assorted pixels that run for about 6 hours until the "story" ends. Unless it's some huge long RPG like Elder Scrolls or Diablo that can easily last 100+ hours without tiring, I wait until it's in the used bin at GameStop, and I don't even like buying games from GameStop.
What's even MORE sad is the new LEGO games being released on PC are $30, and those are waaaay better and more fun than Black Ops or Reach.
Do people forget what it was like 15-20 years ago?Posted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by Hellslinger1
Where games were 70 to 90 dollars and you only had the option of buying the game.
Mr. Cousins also seems to forget that many games these days do have demos up so you can try before you buy it.
Been gaming for 25 yearsPosted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by Generik420
And I never spent $70-90 per game.
Me either...Posted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by San_Andreas
...the only games I remember costing $70+ back in the "bad old days" were RPGs like Final Fantasy III(VI), as well as "enhanced" games like Star Fox and Virtua Racing. And you could always find a better price on even those if you were willing to look. Everything else on SNES ran about $30-40.
Different countries have different pricesPosted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by Scoob79
In Canada, most SNES games were around $70 to $90, depending on cart size. Phantasy Star, and Legend of Zelda on the SMS and NES I remember bring priced as high as $99 though. $70CDN was roughly $45US back then.
At least we have the used game market. It was much nicer with carts, as they don't depreciate or get ruined very easy. Microplay was practically my home.
RememberPosted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by luminaire28
the cheap prices for ps1 games as opposed to n64 games? Remember how that became a huge selling point for cd games? We are still using discs, but games cost as much as n64 cartridges and in some cases those games don't even come with instruction manuals anymore.
Games back then were goodPosted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by BananaJane
And renting games is way way way WAY better than trying a demo.
Personally...Posted: Mar 22, 2011 12:00AM PST by San_Andreas
...I think the FTP microtransaction model is a hell of a lot more exploitative. Just ask those parents who got slapped with a $1400 bill for shit from the "free to play" Smurfs' Village on iOS.
It would help if publishers dropped the "either/or" mentality. There should be different levels of pricing for games. On the SNES, you had games for $40 and then you had $70 games (mostly RPGs). I'd like to see more publishers experiment with $40 and $50 price-points. The platform holders should be taking the lead in this manner.
I want to pay one time to have ALL the game's content unlocked, i.e. OWN my game, and be done with it.
....okayPosted: Mar 23, 2011 12:00AM PST by sj420
"I want to pay one time to have ALL the game's content unlocked, i.e. OWN my game, and be done with it."
Invent a backwards time machine and go back to the 90's through early 2000's when that was still possible. :(
Oh the golden age of gaming, is it really the HD age or those old 8bit-16bit games that were built with passion and not...profit...in mind?

Like it or not, Facebook makes change
Facebook showed off a redesign of its News Feed on Thursday that features bigger pictures, a cleaner look and a series of optional feeds that will let users focus on photos, music or other specialized topics.
The new design could eventually let Facebook show users more advertisements in the stream of updates and posts that users view, according to Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg.
While the main News Feed page will still rank posts according to Facebook's formula for calculating what users want to see -- based on their past likes and those of their friends -- Zuckerberg said users also will be able to switch to a specialized stream showing just photos or just music and concert news. Users can also switch to a stream that shows every post from all their friends or other pages a user has liked.
Those specialized feeds will be like the sections of a newspaper, Zuckerberg said. "We view ourselves as a medium" for all kinds of information and other content that Facebook users want to share."

The main residence is perched above the meadows with wonderful views of the river valley. It is energy efficient with 3,787 SF including 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, office, studio and 2+ garage. In addition to the main residence, there is a separate 1,980 SF green building housing a second garage, office and guest apartment. This beautiful and diverse retreat with all of its amenities is just 20 minutes from historic downtown Durango.

John Toomey
I understand about obituaries all to well. I looked for an ancestor in Toledo not only following the obituary but also following the death certificate. It turned out the man was buried in another cemetery. However, This was a headstone located in Scott Union Cemetery. If it hadn't been there a memorial wouldn't have been made for John Toomey. I am not related to anyone buried in Scott Union Cemetery. His was just one of the headstones we photographed in that cemetery.

RE: Catholic Diocise of Columbus Cemeteries
I have maps of the cemetery and have been walking each row and section, creating a log of the location of each headstone. Currently finishing the Cathedral D Single Row section. Am happy to share pdf files of the maps with you if you don't have them. While working in the cemetery for the past year, I have been able to help the occasional visitor find the location of the grave they were searching for. Some are using FindaGrave as source material and it is helpful to them to have more specific row numbers and locations rather than a general section that may contain 1000-2000 graves. I cross check each plot based on the plot numbers for surrounding graves that have already been recorded from the Catholic Diocese Cemetery databank. Those recorded plot numbers have a really high correlation with the actual location in the cemetery (paper handwritten records always have a few errors). I can only vouch that a marker is or isn't present at a location.

FBI: Marijuana Arrests Decline Significantly In 2015September 26, 2016
Marijuana-related arrests in the United States have fallen to their lowest levels since the mid-1990s, according to data released today by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation.
According to the FBI's Uniform Crime Report, police made 643,122 arrests for marijuana-related offenses in 2015. Of those arrested, 574,641 (89 percent of all marijuana-related arrests) were charged with marijuana possession only, not cultivation or trafficking.
The annual arrest total represents more than a 25 percent decline since 2007, when police arrested a record 872,721 Americans for violating marijuana laws.
Since 2012, four states and the District of Columbia have legalized the adult use and possession of personal quantities of cannabis, leading to a dramatic decline in marijuana-related arrests in those jurisdictions.
As in previous years, marijuana possession arrests were least likely to occur in the western region of the United States, where possessing the plant has largely been either legalized or decriminalized.
According to 2016 nationwide survey data compiled by the Associated Press, some six out of ten Americans now say that the adult use of marijuana should be legally regulated.
Nation's Capital: Massive Reduction In Marijuana ArrestsNovember 11, 2015
The results are in from Washington, D.C. one year after 70% of the voters chose to end cannabis prohibition: A nearly 100% reduction in marijuana-related arrests!
According to the Washington City Paper, the number of annual arrests for marijuana dropped from 895 in 2014 to 7 so far in 2015 (a 99.4% reduction in arrests; an even greater percentage drop in marijuana-related arrests occurred between 2013 and now, when there were 1,215 arrests).
This dramatic reduction in marijuana arrests is consistent with the prior experience in the other states where voters have cast off unpopular cannabis prohibition laws. Post prohibition, arrest rates for marijuana-related offenses in Colorado and Washington State dropped from nearly 12,ooo annually to <200.
Washington, D.C.'s huge reduction in arrest rates is not a result of legalized marijuana (where such a policy allows for the legal cultivation and selling of marijuana, and that government regulates and taxes the production and sale of marijuana products). Instead, in the nation's capital cannabis has been fully de-penalized where adults can cultivate a personal amount of marijuana and possess up to two ounces, but, there is no legal source to purchase marijuana and the government derives no taxes or fees (however, Washington, D.C. does have medical marijuana laws, where approximately 8,000 registered medical patients who're qualified can legally purchase marijuana products at up to four retail locations).
FBI: Uptick In Marijuana Arrests In 2014September 28, 2015
The total number of marijuana-related arrests nationwide rose in 2014, despite the implementation of legalization laws in two states, according to data released today by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation.
According to the 2014 Uniform Crime Report, police made 700,993 arrests for marijuana-related offenses, some 7,500 more arrests than were reported in 2013. Of those arrested, 619,808 (over 88 percent) were charged with possession only — a two percent increase since 2013.
Marijuana arrests comprised nearly half (45 percent) of all drug-related arrests nationwide, at a cost of nearly half a billion dollars.
In the two states (Colorado and Washington) that have legalized marijuana-related activities, cannabis-related arrests plummeted in 2014 — indicating that that other jurisdictions are prioritizing arrests at a time when the majority of the public is opposed to criminalization. (Recent changes in marijuana laws in Alaska, Oregon, and Washington, DC are not reflected in the 2014 arrest data, but will be reflected in 2015 data.)
As in previous years, marijuana possession arrests were most likely to occur in the midwest and in the southeastern regions of the United States. Far fewer marijuana arrests were reported in the western region of the United States, where possessing the plant has largely been either legalized or decriminalized.
The total number of marijuana arrests for 2014 are some 20 percent lower than the totals for 2007, when police made an all-time high 872,721 cannabis-related arrests.
2013 FBI Uniform Crime Report: Marijuana Arrests Down, Still Cost Over 457 Million AnnuallyNovember 10, 2014
The FBI's annual Uniform Crime Report was released this morning and provides an updated look at the total number of marijuana arrests law enforcement made across the country in 2013.
The good news is that numbers are down slightly from 2012's arrest figures. In 2012, there were about 749,825 marijuana arrests (compared to 757,969 in 2011).
The new report shows a modest decrease in arrests. In 2013, there was a total of 693,481 arrests made for marijuana charges, with the overwhelming majority of these being for simple possession. Law enforcement made about 609,423 arrests for possession alone, a decrease of 48,808 arrests compared to 2012. While we may be seeing slight decreases due to the growing number of states who have begun to reform their marijuana policies, the fact that over 600,000 individuals are still being arrested for a non-violent act shows how much work we have left to do in ending our disastrous prohibition of marijuana.
Using the ACLU low-level estimate of cost per arrest ($750), the minimum enforcement cost for the 609,423 individuals put in handcuffs for just marijuana possession in 2013 would be in excess of $457,067,250.
(NOTE: Numbers in this reporting were rounded to the nearest decimal point. You can read the full Uniform Crime Report here.)
Study: Arrests For Marijuana Offenses Increasing In Many StatesJuly 30, 2014
Law enforcement in many states are making a greater number of marijuana arrests than ever before despite polling data showing that the majority of Americans believe that the adult use of the plant ought to be legal.
According to a just published report, "Marijuana in the States 2012: Analysis and Detailed Data on Marijuana Use and Arrests," which appears on the newly launched RegulatingCannabis.com website, police made an estimated 750,000 arrests for marijuana violations in 2012 – a 110 percent increase in annual arrests since 1991. Yet, despite this doubling in annual marijuana arrests over the past two decades, there has not been any significant reduction in marijuana consumption in the United States the report found.
In 2012, marijuana arrests accounted for almost half (48.3 percent) of all drug arrests nationwide. Marijuana arrests accounted for two-thirds of more of all drug arrests in five states: Nebraska (74.1 percent), New Hampshire (72 percent), Montana (70.3 percent), Wyoming (68.7 percent) and Wisconsin (67.1 percent).
From 2008 to 2012, seventeen state-level jurisdictions experienced an average annual increase in marijuana arrests, the report found. South Carolina (11.6 percent) and the District of Columbia (7.7 percent) experienced the highest overall percentage increase in arrests during this time period. By contrast, annual marijuana arrests fell nationwide by an average of 3.3 percent from 2008 to 2012.
Overall, the study reported that the five state-level jurisdictions possessing the highest arrest rates for marijuana offenses are the District to Columbia (729 arrests per 100,000 citizens), New York (577), Louisiana (451), Illinois (447) and Nebraska (421). District of Columbia lawmakers decriminalized the adult possession of marijuana earlier this month.
The two states possessing the lowest marijuana arrest rates are California and Massachusetts, the report found. Both states decriminalized marijuana possession offenses in recent years.
Stated the report's author, Shenondoah University professor Jon Gettman, "After a generation of marijuana arrests, nearly 19 million and counting since 1981, the results are that marijuana remains widely used, not perceived as risky by a majority of the population, and widely available. The tremendous variance in use and arrests at the state level demonstrate why marijuana prohibition has failed and is not a viable national policy."
Full text of the report is available on the NORML website here or from: RegulatingCannabis.com.

GMP may boost power at LowellFebruary 16,2013
JAY — Green Mountain Power wants permission to install equipment that will boost the amount of electricity that its turbines in the Lowell Mountain wind project can put out in the New England grid.
The Caledonian-Record reported that Lowell wind operators noticed Tuesday that three of the 21 turbines were not producing electricity. They said capacity has been curtailed by ISO-New England, which runs the New England grid.
That was a concern of the head of the governor's Energy Generation Siting Policy Commission, which was on a tour of the wind project Tuesday.
Green Mountain Power is asking the Vermont Public Service Board to approve its plan.

"Great Series!"
Loved this series (3). This book was a little hard to listen to at first because the narrator's accent is British. But, once I got into the story, I didn't notice. Very entertaining. Hope there is a 4th in the series coming out soon. If you like James Patterson's detective novels, you will love this series.
"Interesting characters melding together."
A great adventure.
The young attorney.
When he had an anxiety attack and he changed his life.
"Good story, not the narrator's biggest fan"
Yes, good story overall
Keeps the Private saga going, different characters but Jack's still there
most characters are great, his American accent is annoying at best
"Another Private Games hit."
The book was timely and eye opening. It showed what COULD happpen even though the twist is that the villian is so totally unexpected. James Patterson does it again.
"Good book"
Good book, but I liked the first one best.
Good narrator, no complaints here.
"Gripping but not credulous"
It was a little far fetched even for me who suspends disbelief pretty easily. That said, the story kept me in its grip -- I really wanted to know what happened next. We read it right before and during the Olympics which added to its interest.
We have Daniel Baldacci's Hell's Corner
He did a good job of distintingishing the characters
The ending waste ally stretched credulity. There was too much about Knight's dead wife.
"Great Listen"
Didn't read the book
Yes, I finished it the day the Olympics started . Loved it
No I have not, the only problem is the American accents were not as good as I would have like but that was just a minor thing
When I watched the Olympics I was a littler nervous. LOL
"Good story- Needs a new narrator though."
Not sure. The narrator turned me off so bad I feel like I don't want to subject anyone else to it...
He REALLY got on my nerves. He makes Jack (The American) sound like a robot!
The story was slow for the first third of the book, but came together quickly after that and kept my attention. I HATED the narrator though, he almost caused me to stop listening! His accent got on my nerves, and his attempt at an American accent ended up sounding like a robot. It's a great story though, as long as you can ignore the narrator...
"Keep reading"
Start with one and keep going. They are all so good that when you get started you can't wait to hear more.
James once again hits a home run.
I am a retired Wealth Manager,husband, father and Christian grandfather. I hunt, I fish, I play, I read.
"Very timely"
Very well written. Hard to turn off.
looked forward to hearing the next chapter.
I pride myself on being able to figure out who the bad guys are.
Not this one.

Grete Marks at the Milwaukee Art Museum
The Grete Marks exhibition at the Milwaukee Art Museum is a great reminder that art history is no different than all other history: Shaped by a fairly narrow group of people and pock-marked with omissions. What's nice about a show like this is that it re-sets one's thinking about a storied moment in time while also correcting one of those omissions.
The storied moment in this case is the Bauhaus School (Walter Gropius, Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe – art and design heroes to a lot of us). Margarete (Grete) Heymman enrolled in the school as a young woman. It was 1921, and at the time the enlightened Bauhauslers tended to direct women toward pursuits like weaving. Apparently the school's modern attitudes about the sexes weren't all that modern after all. Walter, Paul, Wassily, Ludwig – how could you? »Read Full Blog Post
In Tandem Theatre moves back to funny, perceptive 'Apartment 3A'
Can one argue that really great sex proves the existence of God? Can a play in which a woman verbally counts out her simulated, onstage orgasms still be described as wholesome and old-fashioned? Is actor Jeff Daniels' "Apartment 3A," the comedy triggering these questions, really funny?
Yes! Yes! Yes! »Read Full Article

This is my first post since the Winter Holidays... I have temporarily fallen off the social media map while getting things straightened out in my life. I value the friendships I've made here on G+, and I miss reading and viewing your wonderful posts! I hope you are all enjoying Spring! This shot was taken with a Canon T2i. #CanonUsers
