The Urbz: Sims in the City
We head downtown to try out Urb life.
The wealth of opportunities afforded by a major urban center is immediately obvious. Nine unique districts (each offering their own flavor of lifestyle and environment) create a city that resembles a sort of cosmopolitan theme park. No recent gaming trend is left out of the mix, either. From hip-hop thugging in Skyline Beach to casual skater dudes in Kicktail Park, all the expected pop culture juggernauts get their due. Whether a London-style leather-and-spikes punk scene, the Sopranos-like Southside Bridge or a Bohemian enclave of neo-beatniks, each section of the Urbz feels alive with diversity. As characters move through each area, they must change their appearance to fit in. The local flavor of clothes, jewelry and hairstyles all the way down to tattoos and piercings can be had at the shops in each area.
Of course, before worrying about choosing the proper matching lip and nose ring set, you'll need to create a character. After choosing the fundamental question of whether to be male or female, players are given numerous options to morph the body and head shape and choose from a wide selection of facial features. The character creation system offers sufficient choices for personalization without getting bogged down with too many fussy details. Your character's initial style is determined by your choice of neighborhoods, although nothing is set in stone.
Life for the newly-created Urb begins at his or her first apartment in the city. It's not much to look at, but there won't be much time for just kicking it at home for a while anyway. Taking a cue from the other console-based Sims titles, The Urbz challenges the 'playa' in this town to more than just day to day life. Through a loose, story-based framework of missions and objectives the goal is to build the baddest reputation on the street and take over as the king of style. To do that you need to get down to the districts and mingle.
Socializing with your fellow urbs is at the heart of earning a reputation. As you build relationships throughout each district, your new friends will help you get in with the crowd in other districts. Starting a conversation is as easy as selecting a partner and choosing from a broad menu of behaviors to use on them. Choices are color-coded to give you an idea of the expected response to each: green for positive, yellow for unsure and red for negative.
Several factors come into play to determine the success of your approach. For one thing you need to be in a good mood. Along with socializing, your Urb needs five basic motives satisfied to be happy. Keeping track of the need for "relief", a bite to eat, a shower, entertainment and a good night's sleep will feel awfully familiar to Sims veterans. With a little practice it's no problem to meet these and still have ample time to get things done each day.
Of course, appearances also figure into how well others receive you, so one of the first priorities is to earn some money to drop at the local boutique. Each district offers a different job opportunity. You might be slicing sushi under the neon lights or stripping bikes at a chop shop. With a few variations to fit the situation, work plays out in what proves to be an entertainingly distracting mini-game of Simon Says, pressing controller buttons in the order displayed on screen.
Each position offers opportunities for promotion through three levels as well as that fat raise you're dying for, but each new level imposes stricter requirements. Success at your job means not only keeping up with supply but also satisfying related needs -- much like your Urb's motives. For instance, while slicing sushi you need to keep the place clean, as no one wants to eat at a dirty restaurant. While you initially face only three factors, each advancement adds another layer of responsibility. Advancement also requires leveling up one of three skills -- physical, mental and creative -- depending on the trade. Handy learning machines available at the stores will let you do this once you earn enough to buy them.
With its November release date fast approaching, The Urbz looks like it is coming together well. The combination of working the social circles and the familiar "keep your Urb happy" gameplay can swallow hours off the clock in the blink of an eye. If that weren't enough, the promise of offering the depth to satisfy long time Sims fans along with the pick-up-and-play ease and hipper vibe could attract old Sims fans while earning a new following.

text: Magic Act If you want to spark Jamie Foxx's imagination, give him the creeps. The Oscar-winning actor chose Rocky River native Nicole Matthew's photo "Everythings Magic" to inspire his Canon "Project Imaginat10n" short film. It was one of 91 images selected as potential inspiration for five celebrity directors. Matthews, a Cleveland Institute of Art student, learned about Foxx's choice via a YouTube video in which the actor talked about the photo, offering a cryptic, "Just, let's say, perfect girl, perfect relationship, things go bad."

Carly Rae Jepsen's 'Call Me Maybe' reaches No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100 definitely
After hanging out at No. 2 behind Goyte's long-running "Somebody That I Used To Know," Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" hits No. 1 definitely on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this week.
In doing so, Jepsen becomes the first solo female to send her first Hot 100 entry to No. 1 since Ke$ha did so with "Tik Tok" in January 2010, according to Billboard. The song, which has been on the Hot 100 chart for 16 weeks, has already sold more than 3.3 million downloads.
There's only one new entry into the Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 and that also belongs to a solo female: Katy Perry's "Wide Awake" zooms 19-9 to become Perry's 11th career top 10.
The rest of the Top 10 remains fairly static: "Somebody That I Used To Know" featuring Kimbra slips to No. 2 after eight weeks at No. 1, while Maroon 5's "Payphone" featuring Wiz Khalifa and fun's "We Are Young" featuring Janelle Monae stay at No. 3 and No. 4 respectively.
One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful" and Nicki Minaj's "Starships" swap places with "Beautiful" rising one to No. 5 and "Starships" dropping one to No. 6. Flo Rida's "Wild Ones" featuring Sia remains at No. 7.
Rihanna's "Where Have You Been," the singer's 22nd Hot 100 Top 10 hit, rises one spot to No. 8 this week, while Justin Bieber's "Boyfriend" drops two spaces to No. 10. However, the news isn't all bad for Bieber: "All Around The World" featuring Ludacris, another track from "Believe," bows at No. 22, earning it Hot Shot Debut honors.

In the short term, the answer has been "yes," obviously, but it's going to catch up with the Chiefs at some point. Teams already are crowding the line and keying on Jamaal Charles and the running game. Charles is averaging only 4.1 yards per carry, which is more than a full yard below his career average, and hasn't broken a run longer than Sunday's 24-yard fourth-quarter burst. Quarterback Alex Smith and the offense can soften teams up by going over the top a few times, but it hasn't happened yet. Bowe's 34-yard, fourth-quarter touchdown was the Chiefs' second-longest play from scrimmage this season.

Nice start so far ^_^ very well done! Thank you for contributing~!
Thanks. Are you the admin or the moderator of this forum for Holy Beast Online?
MyMMOGames.net - Multiplayer Gaming and Media Community - Show Groups (We have universal Moderators and Admins)
Anyways, thanks for the guide. I am going to try it after my exams are done QQ
Have skills added. Remember I love you MyMMOGAMES.net
Very nice Clan comparisation but I wonder if it is really the same for the Elementalist and Illusionist. I noticed you just wrote 'Mages' instead of seperating them. Can we assume that the stat growth is the same for the both of them then?
Very nice job on the guide overall, thank you for sharing this information with the community :3
So the touris clan will have more hp/def then any other clan with anyone form a diffrent clan same job? Well Im sure im gona be a cow warrior yay hp and def!
Fixed skills. Thank you kuyaBaka.
@Faelynn: I have tried Tiger Elementalists and Bird Illusionists since they are the stronger clan for the job that under careful observation I don't see much difference or maybe it due to my language skills.
Due to S-Hao's work, I have analyzed and conclude that there are minor status changes between them as if you look in the comparing of lvl. 5. I will soon fixed this as soon as I can see the English text aka HolyBeast Online let us in.
Very nice guide vom! +Rep.
Try importing this into the wiki...if you can't ask a CM or Wiki Sysops for help.
I would not mind adding this to the Wiki after the skill sections are more filled in (top priority at the moment) but it would be nice to have the official source link for this information so I can perhaps provide a better translation. Vom53, would it be possible to give me the link of S-Hao perhaps. It would be useful to match up the correct stat names with the correct numbers. I noticed in your guide that you speak of Wisdom and Intelligence while the game does not have any 'Wisdom' stat (perhaps you meant Spirit?) and 2 kinds of Intelligence. x_x; Just trying to convert it to the right stats so people reading the Wiki will not have problems with understanding which stat is which. But surely it would be a nice addition to the Wiki, like I said before: a real nice job on the guide :3

The Los Angeles Lakers are the reigning back-to-back NBA champions and have a goal of completing a second three-peat in 12 years.
In order for the team to achieve this goal, the Lakers will need to earn a top seed in the Western Conference and continue to be one of the best defensive and rebounding teams.
While preseason games don't count towards the final team's record, it is important in that this period can help set a team up for regular-season success.
As always, I welcome your comments and opinions.
With that said, I now present to you the 10 biggest goals for the LA Lakers in this preseason.

The Death Of An Emperor
The Death Of An Emperor
Mar 13, 2005 11:14PM PST
Certainly we've all heard about Squaresoft and Enix's merger (April 1st, 2003). I want to say, I have been a fan of Squaresoft since I first played Final Fantasy VII in 1998. Currently I own all of the Final Fantasys and several other games that this magnificent company produced. I have several of Nobuo Uematsu's cds. I have Bahamut Lagoon on Super Famicom (but I don't have a Famicom... yet). Unfortunately Enix is harming my company. I don't know how or why it happened, but Enix has corrupted them. Now, I read this in EGM a few weeks ago, the Writer: Hironobu Sakaguchi is going to/ has quit Square Enix to take on his own company. However, it seems, the company is going to be Xbox exclusive. We'll see what will happen. Fsuck you Enix! You should have gone bankrupt rather than leeching off Squaresoft.

Call us surprised. Just a few days after introducing its latest halo technology, Qualcomm might be experiencing some whiplash after making clear the company's attitude toward a high-end quad-core chipset. Threads and streams were more important than a processor core, but it's the latter that makes all the difference in the mid- and low-end markets. So if Qualcomm is pushing on with octa-core Snapdragon 600-series SoCs — not because it wants to, but because it "has to" — why are sources claiming that there's an octa-core Snapdragon 820 on the way? Like the four-core version, the newer ...

Snapdragon is one of the most successful and vastly popular mobile SoCs and is brought to us by Qualcomm. Something we don't often consider is that the Snapdragon is based on ARM's designs. To see where Snapdragon is headed, we first need to look at the ARM roadmap. ARM is the company that many of today's mobile SoCs are based upon. Some are ARMv5, some are ARMv7a-compatible. Others are something entirely different. Notice that I said "based upon". One might think that an SoC based on ARMv5 technology is old and slow. Not necessarily. Since ARMv5 has been around for a while there's been a ...

There is no doubt that Uzbekistan's status as popular touring destination has much to do with its fascinating architecture from various periods, and its rich cultural heritage going back thousands of years. But visiting Uzbekistan during cultural celebrations and festivals can enhance your vacation and add even more unforgettable experiences.
The most cherished and gracious of all Uzbekistan's national holidays is the spring festival of Novruz which falls on March 21. The holiday coincides with the day of vernal equinox - the start of spring, and traditionally honours the rebirth of nature, hence the name (Novruz means "New Day").
From the times this spring holiday originated in 3,000 BCE, Novruz has been observed annually, in one form or another, on a wide territory in the East as a festival symbolizing re-awakening of nature, hope for bumper harvest in the fields and gardens, for love and consent in family. Traditionally the festival of masses, Novruz continues to be unimposed, non-political event to the present day.
While initially a religious festival, Novruz is now mostly secular, though it is steeped in symbolism and rich traditions. Several days before the festival, spring cleaning begins when houses are scrupulously cleaned, whereas cities and villages are tidied up and colourfully decorated enriching the atmosphere of upcoming festivities.
On March 21 the festival celebrations start with traditional games, music and drama performances, street art and colourful fairs, joyful traditional dances, various activities for children and adults, lavishly set tables with the most savory festive dishes, including a ritual meal sumalak (a wheat bran pudding) cooked exclusively for Novruz celebrations and thus available for tasting only once a year. The celebrations are also marked with lots of merry partying and social visiting, allowing music, songs, and laughter to be heard late into the night.
The popular belief says, "He who celebrates and has fun on the day of Novruz will spend his life cheerfully until the next Novruz celebration".
So why not to join in the celebrations of the Spring Festival of Novruz, the nation's signature event?
Make it a spring to remember!

From your guide you will find out that the city was founded in 1884 as Russian military centre 30 kilometers away from ancient Merv (until 1937 Mary was called Merv, former names include Meru and Margiana), which in corrupted form gives its name to the modern city. Nowadays Mary is a large centre of a wealthy cotton-growing region, a large transportation centre and major centre of gas industry, which is the main source of income of Turkmenistan.
Day 7. Mary - Merv - Mary - Ashgabat (evening flight).
Today you will have an amazing tour to ancient Merv. And here you will discover the entire ancient world, reaching us from the depth of centuries, which has retained a lot of historical landmarks. In ancient times Merv was considered to be one of the most precious pearls of the Orient, which was shining against the background of the great empires of ancient dynasties for five centuries, permanently being either their capital or the biggest and the most favourite city of the shakhs. From its foundation and till its destruction by the Mughals, decade over decade, it was growing, developing and getting better due to its skilled craftsmen and careful inhabitants.
The ancient city of Merv was an oasis city on the Silk Road. The site of ancient Merv has been listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.

This would be full of laughter, music, dances and singing traditional songs.
Afternoon transfer back to Ashgabat. Visit National Museum, Parthian Fortresses of Nisa (UNESCO), Independence Park and Neutrality Arch.
In general, the most notable of the mentioned memorials is «Old Nisa». As a matter of fact, Nisa is an ancient settlement situated 18 kilometers away from present-day Ashgabat, which is dated back to 1000 BC - 1000 AD. In its time Old Nisa was an imperial residence in Parthia, while New Nisa was one of the first capitals of the Parthians (alternate names are Parthaunisa, Mithradatkirt). At the time of Parthia existence Old Nisa was called in the honour of the king Mithridates I, who ordered to build the city. At that time Nisa was the capital of the empire, but later the location of the capital was changed, it was transferred to Asia Minor. When the Sassanid came to power, Nisa absolutely lost its influence; the city was ransacked and forgotten. New period of Nisa's history begins with its affiliation to the Arab Caliphate. The city recovered again but has never reached its past power. The start of the city's degradation is dated back to the XVI C, and in the 20-s of the XIX C Nisa was already in ruins.

In a world where Internet use becomes increasingly common with each passing day, business owners who want to optimize their bottom line need to develop a substantive online presence. The best way to accomplish this objective is by hiring an SEO company to enhance your brand's level of online visibility. However, many business owners are lost when it comes to determining which SEO firms will offer them the most excellent, expedient services. If you're torn regarding whether to select a low-cost SEO company or higher end marketing firm, it's important to know that choosing the latter will oftentimes bring you more benefits. Here are several reasons why:
- Experience
As with almost any industry, Internet marketing representatives who have extensive experience in their sector are more likely to yield substantive results faster. In many cases, higher end SEO firms employ digital experts who have ten or more years of experience helping clients attain top level ranking in the search engine results pages (SERPs). On the other hand, smaller SEO firms oftentimes lack this level of experience, meaning it may take them more time to generate results on your behalf.
- Proven Track Record
Typically, higher end SEO firms have successfully worked within the online advertising sector for a long time. As such, they are able to provide prospective clients with evidence indicating their ability to consistently get results on behalf of their clients. On the other hand, newer companies oftentimes make big promises without being able to back them up with consistent results. In many cases, a newer SEO firm might promise page 1 ranking in the SERPs of major engines like Google without being able to deliver.
- Scope Of Services
In many cases, higher end SEO firms are able to offer holistic online advertising services. This ability is very beneficial to your company because it can improve your level of visibility across diverse online platforms while also extending your business's sphere of Internet authority and influence. Some of the services experienced firms can offer to generate this outcome include:
-web design and development
-search engine optimization
-responsive web design
-social media optimization
-online reputation management
-content marketing
- Business Knowledge
Oftentimes, large SEO companies have extensive experience working with very successful brands. As a result, their representatives have oftentimes acquired much knowledge regarding how to market products, optimize client/customer connectivity, and ensure that the relationship-building process leads to conversion. All of these factors can help your small business experience the substantive, ongoing growth you desire.
An Important Side Note
Irrespective of which SEO company you select, it's always important to ensure that you are working with a reputable, remarkable team of professionals. To ensure that you can, be sure that the marketing firm you select possesses all of these attributes:
-good online reviews
-a great Better Business Bureau (BBB) rating
-reasonable rates
-excellent customer service
It's also a good idea to schedule a complimentary consultation with an SEO firm before you hire a company. Doing so can help you familiarize yourself with the company culture and determine whether you'd work well with the firm's representatives. In some cases, you can attain an estimate for SEO services during the consultation.
If you run a small or medium sized business and want it to grow, investing in high quality SEO services is a great way to make it happen. As you begin the search for the ideal marketing firm, remember that selecting an established, high scale company can bring many advantages. Utilize the short outline above to help you make an informed, advantageous decision regarding which firm to hire.

Spartans making many adjustments this year
September 22, 2013
The Greeley West Spartans football team went through a lot of changes during the offseason.
Longtime head coach Mark Roggy resigned in April after 22 years coaching the team and was replaced by assistant coach Jason Renouf.
In his first year as head coach, Renouf has a new starting quarterback, as well: senior Zeke Rodriguez.
And on top of that, the Spartans have changed their offensive attack, throwing more from a shot gun position than in years past.
"We've implemented some new terminology, but a lot of it has stayed the same, really," Renouf said. "We're running our zone schemes just like we did last year, we're gonna be in shotgun a little bit more, we're gonna try to pick up the pace a little bit. But we're still running our zone schemes; it's Greeley West football."
In the Spartans' season opener on Aug. 30, Rodriguez completed 19 of 30 passes with 120 yards, one touchdown and one interception against Monarch. Sophomore quarterback AJ Lopez played in the second half and together, the QBs threw the ball 35 times.
However, West ran the ball just as much. The Spartans had 240 rushing yards on 46 carries in the loss with junior running back Alex Delacroix grabbing 112 rushing yards and one TD.
"We're still running our inside and outside zone, a more balanced attack with passing," Rodriguez said, "but it's pretty much the same as last year with the scheme and terminology."
Renouf said Rodriguez, who's been playing for West for three years, is doing well for his first year as a starting quarterback.
"He's doing a good job. He's taking control of the offense and hopefully he'll step right in, do a good job for us," Renouf said.
He added Rodriguez and the receivers seem to have good chemistry already and are on the same page.
Senior tackle Brian Halsey said Rodriguez worked hard in the preseason and appreciates the work the other players do.
"Zeke is a senior and he truly stepped up this summer," Halsey said. "He never missed a lifting session and he truly appreciates what the other players do for him, especially the linemen blocking up front for him. He understands that we have to work as a team and that as long as we do that, we'll be successful."
It's also been a big change this season for West with Renouf at the helm instead of Roggy. But Halsey, who's been on varsity since his sophomore year, said it's been nice to have Renouf as the head coach.
"Although we were very sad to see coach Roggy leave, coach Renouf brought in a whole new staff," he said. "They made it clear that it was gonna be a good year, it was gonna be a tough year, but as long as we stuck together, got through it and worked as a team, it was gonna be easy. And it truly has (been).
"We have some of the best players we've had out here, at least in my experience on varsity," he added. "We've had truly a great camaraderie between players and as a team together."
Rodriguez said Renouf is doing well in his first year and feels like the Spartans are more like a team offensively.
"For his first year, he's doing a great job actually. He's stepping up," Rodriguez said. "I mean, (with) Roggy missing, he filled a big job so he's doing a really good job (with) it."
And despite so much change, the Spartans are feeling more confident, and Rodriguez said he hopes that's reflected in their season record.
"Better than 3-7 (last season's record), I hope," he said.

Dazzling Glinda ensures a bewitching 'Wicked'
Watching Hayley Podschun's captivating Glinda on Thursday night at the Marcus Center, I realized how much this ambitious sorority girl from Oz has in common with the musical in which she co-stars with Elphaba, the future Wicked Witch of the West.
Like the dazzling Glinda, "Wicked" knows how to milk an entrance, fill a room and put on a show. This is the same tour that was here in 2010, and the production values in evidence then continue to impress, from the lavish Edwardian costumes and matching steampunk set to the spectacular lighting design and 14-piece pit orchestra. »Read Full Article
First Stage's 'Best Christmas Pageant Ever' scores hit
Scrooge may hog the theatrical limelight during the holiday season, but he's hardly the only one with a story of improbable redemption. Just ask the six troublemaking Herdman kids, who are doing some attention-grabbing of their own in First Stage Children's Theater's eighth production of "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever."
Early in the Barbara Robinson novel that inspired this play, the narrating Beth Bradley tells us that she and her classmates figured the Herdman clan — poor, dirty and rough — "were headed straight for hell." Sure enough, director Jeff Schaetzke opens the show by bringing the Herdmans onstage from below, surrounded by a swirl of smoke. »Read Full Article(2)

From a master of contemporary fantasy comes the first novel of a landmark series unlike any you've ever read before. With A Game of Thrones, George R. R. Martin has launched a genuine masterpiece, bringing together the best the genre has to offer. Mystery, intrigue, romance, and adventure fill the pages of this magnificent saga, the first volume in an epic series sure to delight fantasy fans everywhere.
Long ago, in a time forgotten, a preternatural event threw the seasons out of balance. In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. The cold is returning, and in the frozen wastes to the north of Winterfell, sinister forces are massing beyond the kingdom's protective Wall. To the south, the king's powers are failing—his most trusted adviser dead under mysterious circumstances and his enemies emerging from the shadows of the throne. At the center of the conflict lie the Starks of Winterfell, a family as harsh and unyielding as the frozen land they were born to. Now Lord Eddard Stark is reluctantly summoned to serve as the king's new Hand, an appointment that threatens to sunder not only his family but the kingdom itself.
Sweeping from a harsh land of cold to a summertime kingdom of epicurean plenty, A Game of Thrones tells a tale of lords and ladies, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and bastards, who come together in a time of grim omens. Here an enigmatic band of warriors bear swords of no human metal; a tribe of fierce wildlings carry men off into madness; a cruel young dragon prince barters his sister to win back his throne; a child is lost in the twilight between life and death; and a determined woman undertakes a treacherous journey to protect all she holds dear. Amid plots and counter-plots, tragedy and betrayal, victory and terror, allies and enemies, the fate of the Starks hangs perilously in the balance, as each side endeavors to win that deadliest of conflicts: the game of thrones.
Unparalleled in scope and execution, A Game of Thrones is one of those rare reading experiences that catch you up from the opening pages, won't let you go until the end, and leave you yearning for more.

A brilliant series full of characters so real the breath life into every page. Ok so I'm not going to lie, I'm ashamed to admit my love of this series started with the show it is based upon, but like most books that have been turned into a TV series or movie this is so much better, It doesn't matter if you follow the show or not this is a great book and you can see why it has millions of fans screaming for more all over the world, This will be a classic that hundreds of years from now our great great great grandchildren will be reaching for and George R.R. Martins name will live on much like Shakespeare or Dickens, Help make history by reading and loving this book because once you read it you will have no choice but to love it. Each character both good and bad is written so beautifully that its hard not to feel their love, passion, anger and betrayal, If your looking for a book that will transport you into a new land and a story that will keep you returning to it, then this is the series your looking for see for yourself why people all over the world (myself included) have fallen in love with game of thrones, you wont be disappointedby on October 04, 2013

HOLY FUCk TARTS I'm back on 1up.com, this may be my first blog in years on this site.....well. not neccasarily I've attempted to blog about some sstuff a few months back, but for some reason,....I couldn't post it....hmm anyway. I wanted to give an update on myself, seeing ass a small few still checks my page out. I've been a member of this site since 2003 (HOLY CRAP!!!) It's only right that I do.
well where do I start. um...I know, I'm still a slave to the man. still in the NAVY. and it still sucks. well I can't say that, it doesnt always suck. just about 90% of the time it completly sucks ASS. I wish the navy upon no one....join the army, yea, I'd rather dodge Motars and RPGs all day than deal with the bullshit that goes on, on my ship.
Still gaming, not like I was 6 months ago. but I still do. I've been playing Arkham City and MW3. the 2 "must own" for this year. Arkham City has swiflty become one of my ALLTIME favorite games EVER
and batman being my favorite super hero only has 40% to do with it, I swear. I followed everything I possibly could on this game since after Akham Asylum, another fucking gaming classic. Everythign that was talked about was delievered on a silver platter for us to enjoy. they brought back everything from the first game, and added on to it. From the Combat, to the Gliding (personal fav) and the voice acting. I've never been sure how people feel about voice acting in gaming. but personally this is an important assest to games like Arkham City, Uncharted, and LA Noir (also awesome) . you need something to bring the story and its script to life. Bringing back Mark Hamill and Kevin Conroy was fucking smart on RockSteady's part. they played Joker and Batman in the Batman Cartoon from the 90s. they were also in Arkham ASylum. brought back again for this game. Playing this game made me feel like batman. brought me back to childhood dreams of breaking thug arms, throwing long distance bat-a-rangs and glide kicking goons fromt the shadows. Great game loved the story, loved the gameplay, loved the game
I mentioned MW3 earlier but come on...do I really need to talk about it? how many blogs have been posted on the cover art alone, llet aside the game it self? its fucking awesome, Noob friendly, go get it the end
I'm gonna attempt to blog more. I see there is alot of new stuff on this site. I'm gonna play with it for a while.....hehehehe he said play with it (Butthead voice) my next blog will be more formal and more of a blog I promise. I found myself rambling kinda like right now. and decided to stop, so unitl next time, keepi it funky

LUBBOCK - Former Texas Tech defensive end Montae Reagor didn't get exactly what he wanted from the National Football League on Saturday. But he wasn't about to complain after being selected in the second round by the two-time Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos.
"Oh man ... I'm very excited," Reagor, who hoped to be chosen in the first round, said from the Waxahachie home of his mother, LaVeeda Bell. "Things are working out. I'm just blessed to be in this situation. It feels great. I have a chance to play and go to a winning program and a program that's on the rise. It's a program that's going to have a great chance of winning another championship."
It also appears to be a program where Reagor will have an opportunity to contribute right away. The Broncos are expected to release veteran Neil Smith in the off-season because of salary-cap concerns, which would leave Maa Tanuvasaa, Marvin Washington and Alfred Williams atop the depth chart at end.
The Sporting News' NFL draft preview lists a pass-rushing end as Denver's No. 1 draft priority. Reagor, Tech's all-time leader in sacks (25 1/2) and tackles behind the line (48), would seem to fit that role.
Reagor was chosen with the 58th overall pick, making him the highest-drafted Red Raider since running back Byron Hanspard was taken by Atlanta with the 41st pick in 1997. He also joins former Tech running back Anthony Lynn in Denver.
The Broncos took another Red Raider - defensive back Darwin Brown - on Sunday in the fifth round, the 167th pick overall. "They told me they're going to put me down as a guy who can come in and play and make a big contribution to the ballclub," Reagor said. "I'm going to go in and do my best, do things as well as I can."
There was some talk that the 6-foot-2, 270-pound Reagor might be drafted by a team that would try to move him to linebacker. Reagor, though, is happy to report he will first line up for Denver at defensive end.
"They've told me they're really excited about me and everything I can bring to their program," said Reagor, who planned to visit the Mile High City for the first time Sunday. "I'm just going to go up there and do what I can do, which is be a very productive player.
"Tell the people in Lubbock thanks for all their support, for sticking behind me through everything. I'm just very excited right now."

Cancer of the Skin Walter J. Urba; Carl V. Washington; Hari Nadiminti ++ Pigmented lesions are among the most common findings on skin examination. The challenge is to distinguish cutaneous melanomas, which account for the overwhelming majority of deaths resulting from skin cancer, from the remainder, which with rare exceptions are benign. Cutaneous melanoma can occur in adults of all ages, even young individuals, and people of all colors; it is located on the skin, where it is visible; and it has distinct clinical features that make it detectable at a time when complete surgical excision is possible. Examples of malignant and benign pigmented lesions are shown in Fig. 87-1. ++Figure 87-1Graphic Jump Location+View Full Size | Favorite Figure | Download Slide (.ppt)Graphic Jump Location+View Full Size | Favorite Figure | Download Slide (.ppt)Graphic Jump Location+View Full Size | Favorite Figure | Download Slide (.ppt)Graphic Jump Location+View Full Size | Favorite Figure | Download Slide (.ppt)Atypical and malignant pigmented lesions. The most common melanoma is superficial spreading melanoma (not pictured). A. Acral lentiginous melanoma is the most common melanoma in blacks, Asians, and Hispanics and occurs as an enlarging hyperpigmented macule or plaque on the palms and soles. Lateral pigment diffusion is present. B. Nodular melanoma most commonly manifests as a rapidly growing, often ulcerated or crusted black nodule. C. Lentigo maligna melanoma occurs on sun-exposed skin as a large, hyperpigmented macule or plaque with -irregular borders and variable pigmentation. D. Dysplastic nevi are irregularly pigmented and shaped nevomelanocytic lesions that may be associated with familial melanoma. ++ Epidemiology ++ Melanoma is an aggressive malignancy of melanocytes: pigment-producing cells that originate from the neural crest and migrate to the skin, meninges, mucous membranes, upper esophagus, and eyes. Melanocytes in each of these locations have the potential for malignant transformation. In the United States, nearly 69,000 individuals were expected to develop melanoma and approximately 9,000 were expected to die in 2010. Although the overall incidence and mortality have increased over the last decades, the mortality rates for younger patients have flattened whereas those rates for individuals over age 65 have continued to increase. It is predominantly a malignancy of white-skinned people (98% of cases), and the incidence correlates with latitude of residence, providing strong evidence for the role of sun exposure. Men are affected slightly more than women (1.3:1), and the median age at diagnosis is the late fifties. Dark-skinned populations (such as those of India and Puerto Rico), blacks, and East Asians also develop melanoma, albeit at rates 10–20 times lower than those in whites. Cutaneous melanomas in these populations are diagnosed more often at a higher stage, and patients tend to have worse outcomes. Furthermore, in nonwhite populations, there is a much higher frequency of acral (subungual, plantar, palmar) and mucosal melanomas. ++ Risk Factors ++ The strongest risk factors for melanoma are the presence of multiple benign or atypical nevi and a ...
