Being offended is a bit of a national pastime. We live in a world in which we're told that everyone is entitled to their opinion, you're cool as long as no one is getting hurt and everyone can be right no matter what. Until two people have different opinions, and then it becomes a battle of who is more right. And while we should be offended about elected officials abusing our trust, CEOs of massive corporations stealing money, the destruction of our environment for profit and a million other abuses that affect us all on a greater or lesser scale, some people seem to want to put a lot of effort into getting thoroughly pissed over the smallest, most insignificant things that really have no effect on them at all.
4Team Names
Offensive team names are as old as offensive people forming teams. It's all fine and good if you want to play field hockey and call your team the Surly Marmots if that moves you. But maybe the guys from the next town over want to call themselves the Flaming Fecalphiliacs, and suddenly everyone has a bug up their ass, even if they've never gone to a field hockey game before and have no plan on seeing one.
All professional sports have enjoyed some degree of team name controversy. Any team you can think of even remotely inspired by Native Americans has been deemed offensive at some point -- the Redskins, the Indians, the Braves, and so on. Kennesaw State University in Georgia used to have an owl named Hooter as a mascot until some boobs got offended by it and his name was changed to Scrappy. A high school in Utah had to change their mascot from a cougar because someone decided it's now offensive, since saucy old tarts like to call themselves cougars.
London, Ontario's Frontier League baseball team went so far as to call themselves the Rippers and are at risk of the city not renewing their contract to play in town because their mascot is a cartoon depiction of Jack the Ripper, who, you may recall, was a killer, in another country, over 100 years ago, and was never caught, so we don't even technically know what he looked like. But the cartoon version of him playing baseball is awful and worthy of protest. In fact, it garnered so much attention and so many people were offended that Rush Limbaugh actually took the time to voice support for the team. It's OK to read that part again. Rush Limbaugh had to be the voice of reason.
London Pro Baseball
Pictured: Rampant evil and overpriced hot dogs.
The London Rippers are averaging about 1,000 attendees per game in their hometown, which seems to indicate that people really are offended by the team name, if you don't include the fact that London's previous teams -- the Monarchs, the Werewolves and the Tigers -- all averaged less than 2,000 fans per game and all ended up folding thanks to low attendance. This despite the fact that no wildcats, manwolves or butterflies had ever gone on murder sprees in Victorian England.
Do mascots and/or team names ever burn villages and rape the helpless? Very rarely, according to my research, but people still have time to give a shit about them.
3Supporting a Cause
Recently, the good people in the magical land of Oreo created this ad:
Does that shit not look delicious? Oreos normally aren't my thing, they're fine and all, but I'm not crazy about them. But man, if you gave me rainbow-colored icing in the middle of a chocolate cookie, I would be on that shit like a drunken hobo on a Lysol-infused rag. But everyone does not share this opinion.
Oreo's ad, meant to show Kraft's support of gay rights and the pride movement (it's not even a real goddamn cookie), has been met with actual protest. Not out in the streets protest, because the people who protest cookies generally need a hand getting off the couch, but protest nonetheless.
Of course, many are supportive of Kraft and Oreo's ad and position, and at worst a large portion of people are indifferent. But make no mistake, when idiots feel they have been affronted, once they master the language skills necessary to raise a stink, they will absolutely do so.
Arguably, this is indicative of the larger debate about gay rights, which in itself is kind of stupid, but in this microcosmic way it really shows just how far some people will go to unwittingly be complete ass-brained chucklefucks. To even form the thought that you might want to protest a cookie, let alone speak the words, is something future peoples may read about and laugh at the way we mock people who used to take tapeworms to lose weight, because obviously those people had been hit on the head many, many times. And maybe they ate some lead paint chips.
Protesting Oreo proves literally nothing. In fact, less than nothing. What you're trying to prove has turned around a complete 180 and is now proving something completely different -- that you probably have to stop every 10th word or so to take a breath to avoid passing out when you speak. How does Kraft management's support of a social issue that obviously doesn't even pertain to your particular lifestyle reflect on their product? Is there gay in the cookie? Do the boxes play George Michael tunes when you open them? No? Then shut up and eat your cookies.

What are the vocals like? Clean or harsh?
Written by Mr. Doctor on 23.03.2012 at 23:44
It was good, but not THAT good. Would probably give it a strong 7 to a very light 8 if I'm generous. Didn't really dig the vocals.

I disagree Doc. I think this album brings something special and fresh to the already-diluted post metal scene.

This is going to sound so crazy, but my mother has really gotten in my head about this and I need some advice.
I have a three year old that I am still breast feeding. We were planning on stopping when he got to be four, but that is still several months off. As I'm sure some of you know, at three years old they are plenty aware of the world around them and this is where my problems begin.
My husband is into the Ultimate Fighting Championship (or MMA as he and his buddies call it). Whenever there is a big event on TV they all come over to our house and order it on pay per view. That is not the bad thing in and of itself, but our house is small and I have nowhere to go so I end up breastfeeding our three year old right there in front of the TV. My son is observant enough to know what is going on and my mom is fearful that these half dressed women, violence, and foul language will be passed on to his young, impressionable mind.
When I talk to my husband about this, all he can say is "Don't you realize that Matt Serra is going to beat up GSP this weekend and now is not the time to have this conversation!" He says it so emphatically I'm afraid to push the issue. He gets so riled up about the USA vs. Canada thing that he refuses to listen to reason and refuses to see that it might not be a good environment for our son.
He swears up and down that our son will do this UFC thing one day and it is better to get him cheering for it early on. I wouldn't mind if our son took up the sport one day because I enjoy it too (even if I think GSP is going to win!), but my mom has me worried that I may be exposing my son to too much, too soon.
How can I more effectively communicate my fears and make my husband see my (my mom's) point of view, or am I crazy to think about the impression it could leave on him?

Miss Notty has a lot of fun during her work and she would not have it any other way. In the DDF Busty scene called "Vibrant Vista Of Jugs" she appears in an outdoor scene posing on a red chair. Her outfit is sexy lingerie that has a slimming look and her big tits are practically stuffed into it. Not for too long though as she finishes her initial tease and gets down to some stripping. Once she has finished playing with her boobs and has removed her panties, she takes out a glass dildo and has some fun screwing around with it. It's a lovely scene and Eva really shines in it.
She's one of those performers who can work the camera alone, with another girl or guy and even in a group setting. While Miss Notty does like to be the center of attention, there are times when she just wants to draw a warm bath and light a few candles and have a relaxing quiet evening.

You probably won't be surprised to learn that a poll taken Jan. 30 of 1,255 likely Illinois Democratic primary voters shows Attorney General Lisa Madigan leading Gov. Pat Quinn by a very large margin.
Madigan also leads Quinn and former White House chief of staff Bill Daley in a three-way contest, according to the poll, but Quinn leads Daley in a one-on-one race. And a large plurality of Democrats disapprove of the governor's job performance. The We Ask America Poll has a margin of error of +/- 3 percent. About 18 percent of the results came from non-landline users.
In the poll, Madigan leads Quinn by 25 points, 50.5 to 25.7. Among women, who almost always comprise a majority of Democratic primary votes, Madigan's lead is 53-22, while she leads among men 46-30.
The attorney general's lead over the governor in Chicago is 46-30 and it's 51-28 in suburban Cook. Madigan is ahead 53-23 in the suburban collar counties and by a massive 53-21 in downstate.
Madigan has not yet decided whether she is going to run for governor. People close to her are divided over what they think she'll do. She reportedly plans to take her time with her decision.
A Public Policy Polling survey taken in November had Madigan leading Quinn 64-20. But that poll was of just 319 "usual" Democratic primary voters with a margin of error of +/- 5.5 percent. Still, PPP does excellent work, so if you average the two polls you get a 57-23 lead for Madigan. If Madigan's decision is heavily weighted toward whether she can win the primary, she'll run.
Quinn has a better shot against Daley, a white, Irish Democratic Chicago man who may not bring much more to the table than Dan Hynes did in the 2010 primary. According to the We Ask America poll, Quinn leads Daley by five points, 38-33. November's PPP survey had Daley leading Quinn 37-34, so average those two results and you get an essential tie at 36 for Quinn and 35 for Daley.
According to last week's We Ask America poll, Quinn leads Daley in the city 45-30, but Daley leads in suburban Cook 40-36. Quinn has a narrow half-point lead in the collars and leads by less than two points downstate. The Daley name ain't what it used to be.
Could Daley be a spoiler who helps Quinn in a three-way race? Not according to the We Ask America poll. According to the poll, Madigan leads the multiple candidate contest with 37 percent to Quinn's 20 percent to Daley's 15. Public Policy Polling did not test a three-way race last November.
Madigan's lead among women in a three-way contest is pretty big. She gets 38 percent to Quinn's 17 percent to Daley's 13 percent. Among men, her lead is a bit smaller at 34 percent to Quinn's 24 percent to Daley's 18 percent.
Madigan leads Quinn and Daley in Chicago 35-22-17. Her lead in suburban Cook is 35-18-18. She leads 36-17-16 in the collars and is ahead by a very big 40-19-11 downstate.
Public Policy Polling had Quinn's job approval rating among Democrats at 40 percent, with a 43 percent disapproval. Last week's We Ask America poll had Quinn's approval among fellow party members at 37 percent, with a 42 percent disapproval. Despite the head-to-head matchups, women give him a slightly lower disapproval rating than men, 41 percent of women disapprove, compared to 46 percent of men. But just 36 percent of Democratic women and 37 percent of Democratic men approve of the way Quinn is handling his job.
Quinn won the 2010 primary and general elections despite low approval ratings. So, he's been here before. What he didn't have to do back then, however, was take on one of the most popular politicians in Illinois. PPP's November poll pegged Lisa Madigan's favorable rating at 68 percent among Democrats, while just 16 percent had an unfavorable view.
If Lisa Madigan runs, she likely wins the primary. Daley is another story. Like 2010, a Daley-Quinn race will be a hard-fought and bloody battle that could end up being pretty close. If Quinn has to get a single primary opponent, Daley would be the one he'd want.

Tips and Recipes for Horseradish
The sharp, mustardy flavor of horseradish makes it a natural choice for perking up plenty of savory dishes. Prepared horseradish is made by grating the root of the plant and mixing it with vinegar or mayonnaise.
Horseradish is a perennial plant that's often grown as an annual for the best-quality root. It's easiest to start horseradish from a root cutting planted in rich soil.
Beware that this potent herb spreads and can easily take over an area. It's also difficult to get rid of since any tiny bit of root can sprout a new plant.
Horseradish Recipes
Use your bounty of zippy horseradish in these tempting dishes.
"People say, 'Wow!' when they taste these flavorful Horseradish Deviled Eggs (pictured above)," confirms Ruth Roth of Linville, North Carolina. "The bold combination of ground mustard, dill and horseradish is so appealing…the plate is always emptied whenever I serve these eggs."
"These spicy Horseradish Meatballs, with their thick savory sauce, are a popular party food," notes Joyce Benninger of Owen Sound, Ontario. "I also like to serve them with rice and a salad for a hearty meal."
"A little of Homemade Horseradish Sauce goes a long way to liven up dark game meats, beef, sausage, chops and deli sandwiches," assures Patricia Wolf of Lewes, Delaware.

It's been one year since the earthquake and tsunami disaster in Japan and even though the majority of the damage was suffered thousand of miles away, Hawaii's harbors were deeply impacted by the devastation. Despite millions of dollars released by the state for repairs, glitches have forced some boaters to just make due.
Boater Jeffrey jones will never forget the mess the tsunami left behind at Keehi Harbor last year.
"I was looking at my boat, just hoping that it wouldn't get hit by all of the other boats that broke free just moving back and forth," Jones said.
Damaged boats and debris littered the open waters that day. 364 days later, some repairs have been made, some haven't. Twelve submerged boats linger underwater and pier 700 and 800 still hold the tsunami's scars.
State funds are available to make the repairs but the Department of Land and Natural Resources boating division said there's a catch.
"But in order to get to the FEMA reimbursement, we have to build the pier to the federal specifications, which means they have to become ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant, but the portion leading up to that part of the pier is not ADA," Ed Underwood, DLNR said.
DLNR's boating division said the plan is to replace both piers in their entirety. Jeffrey Jones said as for Keehi Harbor boaters who received damage to their vessels last year, many failed to qualify for financial assistance, forcing them to rely on each other and what they have left
"Just take care of the property yourself, do the best you can, make due basically," Jones said.

Equal attention to Learning Supports is essential so that:
- Every student will demonstrate academic achievement and be prepared for success after high school;
- Every student will be supported by highly prepared and effective teachers and school leaders; and
- Every school will offer a safe and healthy learning environment for all students.
Children of Military Families
A number of Illinois' children have parents in the military that have experienced at least one deployment.
While many children of military families are doing well, schools need to be responsive to the unique needs of these children and provide them with a safe haven and access to any additional supports they may need. This can be done through a Comprehensive System of Learning Supports that promotes the necessary conditions for learning and addresses any barriers to learning.
Some classroom interventions for students who have parents that are deployed:
- Focus on the student and classroom learning
- Provide structure
- Maintain objectivity (i.e., respond to events in a calm and caring way and refrain from expressing negative opinions)
- Reinforce safety and security
- Be patient
- Be sensitive to language and cultural needs
- Acknowledge and validate feelings
- Reinforce anger management

Sometimes I hear well-spoken people say, "I wish I *would have* known." Is this grammatically correct? Shouldn't it be, "I wish I *had* known"?

I'm probably not the best one ta be welcomen ya, but there doesn't seem ta be anyone else around.
There's usually loads of brainy people here what can answer yer questions.
I'm not so sure meself and at furst glance I'd say yer right ta question "I wish I would have known".
On the other hand, ya always say "I wish I were" in the conditional so mabee it's a folly on from that or somethin.
I can't be knowen meself, but I'm sure someone will help ya soon.

Dear Pivetta: I have forgotten all the grammar I once knew, and all our experts must be watching the Olympics. I would never use the "would" in your example. "I wish I could have known.." seems OK, or simpler "I wish I had known."

Dear Pivetta,
I'm a stranger here myself, and I hope you will be made to feel as welcome as I have.
"If I had known" is the way to go in the subordinate clause. "Would have" sounds right in the main clause. It has to do with what happened first and what came later.

"I wish I *would have* known." ... "I wish I *had* known"?
See this http://www-personal.umich.edu/~jlawler/aue/tense.html for a glimpse into the wonderful world of nuance the English language is capable of.

Welcome to the Board Pivetta!
For what it's worth, when I am truly rueful I say :
"I wish I'd've known" which, I guess, is a contraction of "I wish I would have known" ... it's all too complicated, this language of "ours!"
I tend to go with what sounds right but I wish I'd paid more attention in school.
Tsuwm will help you out ... now that he is no longer hiding his brilliant light under a barrel! (See "a nother promise" thread in Information and Announcements)

A hearty welcome to you, Pivetta! I'd sort of thought that 'I had known' was correct, and the other a sloppy but common idiom. Apparently I was wrong.
Looked at your bio, Sweetie--you seem to have enough quirkiness to fit right in here! Re: your special interest, musick likes baseball pretty well, but you really ought to check in with AnnaStrophic and Faldage, for some real die-hard fan discussion. Just a suggestion.

"I wish I *had* known"
This one gets my vote, Pivetta.
While we are at it, you get my WELCOME and MaxQ gets my hearty thanks for expressing how I feel about this site:
I have stayed out of this thread to date because my grasp of grammar isn't worth ...(read MaxQ's post for the rest) ... ask more questions - that way I can learn vicariously.
Glad you're (both) here

Welcome Pivetta!
Fans of mystery novels (I am one) refer to the "Had-I-But-Known School" of mystery writing, the greatest practitioner of which was Mary Roberts Rinehart. That's a rather old-fashioned way of expressing the same thing.

Hi Ladies, I am new here!
I need some advice. I work full time and pump 2x a day with my Lansinoh double. I was getting 11 oz a day then went down to 8oz to 6oz now 2oz at 10 mos. I am on More Milk Plus but it doesn't seem to be working much and I am taking double the dose. I have been using my frozen milk to make up for the loss but I am getting so frustrated and am ready to quit pumping. Can anyone help me? I am desperate! I really don't want to put her on formula. I plan on breastfeeding until she is 2 or 3 in the evenings and on weekends (basically anytime i am with her) but if I stop pumping at work will that make me dry up totally? This is my first as im sure you guessed I only have 2 more months till she turns a year and I really wanted to make it with only EBM

Governments of countries and areas in the ESCAP region gathered in Bangkok, Thailand from 10 to 12 September 2012 for the Asia-Pacific Intergovernmental Meeting on the Second Review and Appraisal of the Madrid International Plan of Action on Ageing.
South and South-West Asia Development Monitor Number13, 1st Feb 2013
The Development Monitor is a bimonthly electronic newsletter, launched in early 2012 (issued on a monthly basis initially), which provides an overview of the work and activities undertaken by the ESCAP South and South-West Asia Office and conferences and knowledge products of relevance to the subregion. The newsletter also provides a compilation of news and articles on themes covered by the ESCAP SSWA work programme.
Governments of the ESCAP region gathered in Incheon, Republic of Korea, from 29 October to 2 November 2012 to chart the course of the new Asian and Pacific Decade of Persons with Disabilities for the period 2013 to 2022. They were joined by representatives of civil society organizations, including organizations of and for persons with disabilities. Also in attendance were representatives of intergovernmental organizations, development cooperation agencies and the United Nations system.
Natural resources sectors such as mining, oil, gas, hydro, and forestry plantations are an integral component of most developing economies in the Asia-Pacific region, thereby making them attractive investment sectors for both transnational corporations (TNCs) and state-owned enterprises (SOEs).
Asia Pacific least developed countries attracted less than 1% of FDI inflows to the region, indicating strong growth potential.
Myanmar, which is one of the 13 least developed countries (LDCs) in Asia and the Pacific, is relatively rich in natural resources, has young workforce, and is close to the world's most dynamic trading economies, including China and India. With an appropriate policy mix, improved business environment and a stable, but reformed political system, the country is expected to fulfill its considerable potential and move ahead with delivering on economic development.
This Working Paper presents Asian Single Window background and evolution; a description of what we mean by national versus regional single window; an update on Member States' National Single Window (NSW) status; an overview of Asian Single Window (ASW) technical, legal aspects; an assessment of institutional and technical aspects of the Asian Single Window work; potential benefits from the crossborder exchange of data using the Asian Single Window; incremental benefits from Asian Single Window; challenges to Asian Single Window implementation; and conclusions.
The Asia-Pacific Development Journal (APDJ) is published twice a year by the Macroeconomic Policy and Development Division of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP).
The primary objective of the APDJ is to provide a platform for the exchange of knowledge, experience, ideas, information and data on all aspects of economic and social development issues and concerns facing the region and to stimulate policy debate and assist in the formulation of policy.
The Population Data Sheet for Asia and the Pacific, published annually by ESCAP, contains key indicators on population and development displayed at country, subregional and regional levels.
It is a useful tool for reference by researchers, policymakers and other stakeholders interested in the field of population and development.

The Asia-Pacific Trade and Investment Report (APTIR) is a recurrent publication prepared by the Trade and Investment Division. It aims to deepen understanding of regional trends and developments in trade and investment; emerging issues in trade, investment and trade facilitation policies; and impacts of these policies on countries' abilities to meet the challenges of achieving inclusive and sustainable development. APTIR 2012 focuses on trends and developments in the economies of Asia and the Pacific in their post-recovery from the 2008-2009 crisis and trade collapse.
Falling demand in the developed world has led to a broad-based economic slowdown in Asia and the Pacific, lowering economic growth forecasts.
The impact of slowdown will challenge regional inclusive and sustainable development with job growth and household income predicted to decline. UNESCAP estimates that, by 2013, 14 million fewer people in the Asia and Pacific region would be able to escape poverty at the $2-a-day poverty line.

so im down with another meet up / dinner-ish type deal like we had last year. WHAT SAY THE REST OF YOU? saturday evening some time? maybe before we all strap in to gear and go terrorize the con??? eh?? eh??
I'll be down
The dinner thing was cool last year, I'm up for that again! Glad I put 3 coats of mudglass on my codpiece so I could sit in it, that did come in handy.
Depending on timing, I would be down for a meet up. . . And if we do a group picture, I have to stand backwards. If you look at the posters for some of the seasons of RedVsBlue, Caboose was always facing the opposite direction from everyone else.
Just let me know, my schedule may get a little crazy with LARP panels and running a booth.
What's word on the Parade this year? I'll be walking around either Friday or Saturday as the ODST DI
No one really knows whats going on with the parade, to be honest haha. The whole thing is up in the air. What we need to do as of right now is make a list with contact information on everyone who KNOWS they will march. We need to get these people some parade badges already.
Yea, but last year we had badges and an actual spot in the parade. Im just wondering if that has even been applied for yet.
all parade arrangements have been made. the registration was made a couple of months ago by dreads, and the only thing to do past that is to meet up. the gathering details are posted in the parade thread. you have to read to find them. i posted last years details and asked for comments and suggestions, received none, so those are the same details we are using this year.
as far as the meetup goes, most of us will be at the karaoke bar / restaurant a block away from one of the host hotels. that is the only meetup thats planned.
i definately want to do a meetup. let me know about any and my family and i will be there.
Im so disappointed Im not going to make it this year just got a new job and started dc week sucks. But will be making money to go next year and fix up my suit. Have fun everyone cant wait to see the pics from it.

lin is actually pretty honest with the media. he said: "I think he's (melo) doing a great job of drawing two and kicking and scoring when he needs to score, running the lane.."
what was i saying about melo needing to get better at making the quick decisions this offense requires earlier today?
he made some better ones tnite, but i think there's still room for improvement.
I for one loved the way he played tonight
Great win for the Knicks. Hopefully they bring this energy tomorrow.
Humility is a virtue and pride is a vice.
seriously on this team w all of the talent we have, melo needs to become more of an uber efficient, solid defending, excellent decision making, system player who elevates his game only when needed. knowing when to do that is kind of an art. paul pierce and kobe have it down pat.
anyway Melo has to be Melo he cant be Fields, he has to look to score, rebound and defend but when the games on the line or 5 minutes left in the 4th tied game vs Chicago/Miami Melo has to be "THE GUY" like I said I love the way Lin is playing and Melo has been asked to do too much this year with not help but once he regains form and finds his rhythm he is our guy in the 4th no one else
thats the thing about this Lin ****, he's been doing it for 2 weeks Melo has been doing it his whole career
Few quick hits here... loved the win for starters, combined with celts and sixers losses, hell yeah. Agree with most posts, hate to be the guy to jump in late and argue, don't mean it as argument, just my thoughts to share...
CA7- I think he's a great poster, but he's a serious homer for Melo, we all now it, that said, sorry guys, I agree with him completely here that while Lin is great and will take us to a new level, Melo is our primary scorer and should see the ball more than just being a catch and shoot wing player.
Rono- Based on what that you have seen does Jerome Jordan suck balls? He did not suck in Serbia, they liked him alot, wanna say he was going for 15-7 in like 22 minutes or something, and they are notorious for bringing young bigs along slowly. No one here thinks he's the next Jeremy Lin, but I think he's worth more looks, I think he could be valuable, he has finished well at rim, been able to block a shot here and there, he could be a solid 8-12 minute big off the bench in some situations, Tyson is getting big minutes compared to what he normally got, and we need him to last a few years here!
Positive notes, we beat a team ahead of us, there is plenty of reason for optimism, and our bench has unreal potential with Novak, JR, Baron, Shump, Jorts, Jeffries, we could be very very tough by April
"Tough times don't last forever, tough people do"
"Tough times don't last forever, tough people do"
great win tonight. Glad we played like 10 guys and the score helped us rest. Tomorrow we make a statement to the HEAT with at the very least, a close game. Knicks 99 Heat 95
the thing about fitting in is
when you're in school and you try to fit in you look stupid, so essentially why not let STAT be themselves, Melo has been a great NBA player his entire career, no way 7 or 8 games without him defines how great of player he is, its the New York media blowing everything out of proportion, let our team grow and after 7/8 games together then we see how things are looking I guarantee if Lin starts having games of 4pts, 5ast and 10to's and we're losing people will say its Melo's fault and STAT's fault
So if we're going to be negative towards our 2 best players then they'll continue to play negative
n trust me the kobes, jordan and pierce's figured out how to play within the flow, get there teammates involved for most of the game n dominate when it mattered most.
common man i ve been watching the game too long. i know what winning looks like. we CANNOT win ****e w melo dominating the basketball like we've seen him do. no chance.

Super Street Fighter IV ReviewBy Matt Keil - Posted Apr 26, 2010
It wouldn't be Street Fighter if Capcom wasn't tweaking and rebalancing the base game, and Super Street Fighter IV is no exception. It implements ten new fighters, adjusts discrepancies between existing characters, and delivers highly improved online play. It's likely the best bang for fighting game fans' buck they'll get all year.
The Pros
- Improved roster balance
- Enhanced online modes allow group play
- New fighters offer very different playstyles
The Cons
- Trial Mode still needs a "demo move" feature
- Hakan is a very odd addition to the roster
Well, we all knew this was coming. It's not a true entry in the Street Fighter series if it doesn't have at least two upgraded iterations with the same number attached, and now we have Super Street Fighter IV to carry on Capcom's fighting game tradition. Thankfully, this is much more of a Third Strike-level improvement than a Hyper Fighting one, and offers some substantial improvements on many fronts.
The Talented Ten
The biggest addition is, of course, the roster expansion. Ten "new" fighters join the cast, including two all-new characters. Rounding out the original Super Street Fighter II Turbo cast are Dee Jay and T. Hawk. Dee Jay is one of the more effective charge characters in the game, and T. Hawk is an absolute beast of a grappler with tremendous range to his command throws. Street Fighter Alpha donates Adon, Cody and Guy, with Cody as the standout and possibly the strongest overall of the ten newcomers. Fan favorites Dudley, Ibuki and Makoto have made the transition from Street Fighter III: Third Strike admirably, with Makoto in particular being an impressive fit due to the character's previous reliance on Third Strike's parry system.
Super Street Fighter IV official debutants are Juri, a lithe Korean fighter with a spider themed look and an evil gleam in her eye, and Hakan, a big red Turkish wrestler with a full body lubrication fetish. Juri has a fascinating Tae Kwon Do-inspired play style almost reminiscent of a King of Fighters character. Hakan is a bit tougher to figure out. He's a grappler with a oil-up buff that lets him slide around, giving him deceptively long range. However, his appearance is so strange that he doesn't fit well with the rest of the cast. Street Fighter has certainly dabbled in the weird before, but the Street Fighter IV roster is grounded enough that Hakan feels oddly out of place. Is that his hair or some kind of headgear? And if it's headgear, how is it attached to his mustache? These questions remain tragically unanswered.
Each character has a brand new story to play through, complete with new cutscenes, voice acting, and rival matches. The openings are just static "motion comic" style, but endings are fully animated. Some of the rival scenes are fan-requested dream match fodder, such as Ibuki's meeting with Sakura and Dudley's long-awaited confrontation with fellow boxer Balrog.
Balance feels more on target for the whole roster. Returning characters have gained one new Ultra Combo each and most of them have been tweaked a bit to counteract weaknesses or tone down advantages. Weaker characters like Guile and Vega now have a slightly more level playing field to work with, while beasts like Sagat are less dominant. You're probably not going to see Ken winning any tournaments any time soon, but the rebalancing does seem to have resulted in a willingness for players to try characters other than the standard Shoto-Clone club.
Worldwide Warrior
There have been many requests for improvement in the online department since Street Fighter IV's launch, and Super Street Fighter IV manages to deliver on nearly all counts. Connection speeds for potential opponents pop up instantly now, removing the constant guesswork and nasty surprise lag that occasionally popped up in the original. The matchmaking snafus of the original also appear to be gone. Ranking Match is very good about finding players of my own ranking to play against, as opposed to the broken original that repeatedly matches higher level players against players with no ranking points. It's hard to tell if it's all fully functional without thousands of players online, of course, but what I played on a retail copy pre-launch was definitely an improvement.
Endless Battle mode is something that really should have been in the original from the start. It lets a lobby of players play in succession in a "winner stays" round robin session. While waiting your turn you can watch the other players' fights, and even save them as replays should you see something you deem historically significant. Replay saves are a big deal in Super, with a robust replay theater offering tons of ways to organize your replay viewing habits.
Team Battle mode offers a tournament-style challenge in which two teams of opponents fight a series of matches in an effort to rack up the most wins. This mode was not being played online at the time of this writing, so I was not able to evaluate it, but will follow up after launch.
...And Tribulations
The only real disappointment in an otherwise grand package is the lack of improvements to the Trial Mode. The advanced combos in Trial feature timing that can border on the cryptic, and it really needed a "demo move" option that would show you exactly what you're trying to accomplish. Instead you're stuck with a list of commands and no hints as to how or when to string the attacks together. You can always watch videos of how to do them on YouTube, of course, but it would be nice if the game itself offered more of a helping hand.
In conclusion, Super Street Fighter IV is an excellent upgrade to what was already a stellar fighting game. The amount of new characters, fighter rebalancing, and online improvements nullify the assertion that Capcom is cynically cashing in on fans. After the dozens of hours I've invested in the game, there's just too much improvement here for that argument to hold water. At the lower-than-average price of $40, it's a fine buy for fans of the vanilla Street Fighter IV looking for some new content or new players wondering what all the fuss is about.

The title of this dish sounds wonderful and the picture looks scrummy so I rushed to make this for lunch today. I have to say I was a little let down, it is on the bland side. The flavour of the garlic really comes through but doesn't over power. The bacon lifts it but next time I think I'd use smoked bacon for extra flavour. Caramelising the onion and perhaps roasting the carrot might help to enhance the flavours. That being said, it wasn't unpleasant and I did scoff a bowlful with a buttered roll & the rest is in the fridge for tomorrow.
I cooked this on Saturday for my family - husband, 8yr old daughter and 3yr old son. They thought it was absolutely delicious. We had some Italian foodie friends staying and they had some too. Verdict - 'superb'. The soup tasted even better the next day
( I doubled the ingredients).
I used good quality lardons instead of slices of bacon - and for presentation , after I had pan fried them crisp, piled them up in the middle of each soup portion - then drizzled with olive oil.
Will make again! Simple to make. Use the best quality ingredients.
Made this soup this weekend, as I had bought a large bag of spring greens for 10 pence. I already had the other ingredients in the fridge. I didnât whizz the vegetables down I left them chunky. I also added a tin of bolletti beans and added some single cream. Added a bit more pepper. After frying the bacon I use some of the stock to clean the pan and added this back into the soup. A perfect soup for a cold winters day and very filling.
The first line made me realise my food processor does more than just blend, so huge thanks for that! This was a quick, easy and very nutritious soup. The boyfriend really liked the contrast between the soup and the shredded cabbage. Nice and hearty. Will definitely be making up again next time I buy too many vegetables! Knocked off a point because it wasn't "out of this world", just really lovely :)

VIDEO: Highlights and Interview from Sallesianum vs. St. Mark'sSalesianum's Donte DiVincenzo scored 18 of his team's 20 2nd half points to help hold off a late St. Mark's rally in a 46-43 Sals' victory Friday night.
Salesianum (16-3) held a 26-20 lead at halftime thanks to nine points from DiVincenzo and a pair of three pointers from Nick Perugino, and kept the margin at six after an even third quarter.
A DiVencenzo three-pointer followed by a pretty driving layup by Anthony Reed both pushed Salesianum's lead up to nine early in the 4th before the Spartans began to rally.
Kris Moore collected a racquetball-like baseline save by Keith Hicklin, and then scored a basket with a Sals' player draped on his back to cut the game to 38-32 following the free throw.
Two possessions later Moore hit a short hook layup to cut the game to 38-36. Moments later Hicklin would hit a three pointer to make it 42-40 with 1:20 left, but his team could get no closer, although a frantic 3-point attempt on a play with .6 seconds remaining went strong.
DiVincenzo finished with 29 points. Hicklin led St. Mark's (8-11) with 16 points, while Hicklin added 12.

Vt. sees unexpected increase in tax collectionsBy DAVE GRAM
The Associated Press | May 04,2013MONTPELIER Lawmakers grappling with how much revenue they need to raise in the coming fiscal year got some welcome news Friday: an unexpected boost in April tax collections of nearly $27 million.
A significant share of the money $8 million to $12 million is expected to go back out in tax refunds, and lawmakers had already made plans last year for any surplus that materialized in the fiscal year that ends June 30.
But theyre also in the midst of trying to work out taxing and spending plans for the next fiscal year. The extra revenue should make the process somewhat easier, said both Steve Klein, chief of the Legislatures Joint Fiscal Office, and members of the House Ways and Means Committee.
Both Klein and House Speaker Shap Smith said its too early to say how much stock should be placed in the future strength of tax collections.
Preliminary figures show that April personal income tax collections were $32.2 million above what was forecast in January. But Klein cautioned that sales and use tax revenues, a good indicator of consumer activity, came in short of their forecast by 10 percent.
Its not a picture of an economy rebounding, he said.
Klein said recent federal tax law changes may be prompting some high earners to report higher incomes in 2012, shifting some income from the 2013 federal tax year, when rates will be higher.
But he joined Rep. Jim Masland, D-Thetford, a member of the House Ways and Means Committee, in saying the extra money might make negotiations easier between the House and Senate conferees to resolve differences in the two chambers tax plans.
The House is looking to raise $27 million in new revenues, while the Senate is eyeing $9.4 million in new taxes, with a key difference being that the House wants to put more money into the states reserve funds.
Budget provisions passed last year said that half of extra money in this fiscal year would go to reduce property taxes, and a quarter each would go into a reserve fund and to offset cuts in federal funding.
Fridays preliminary revenue figures appear to mean theres money to support the House goal of beefing up reserves.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt. Full StoryVermont Attorney General Bill Sorrell plans to join the U.S. Full StoryMONTPELIER Gov. Full Story

Volvo FM Classic
Driving in heavy traffic on unfamiliar roads can be stressful. Sitting comfortably with a clear view and easy access to the instruments enables you to concentrate on the surrounding traffic. That is why Volvo developed I-Shift. The most intelligent gearchanging system invented for distribution, construction and long-haul operations.
The I-Shift is designed to improve your truck's drivability through an electronically managed engine and an automatic transmission. The transmission changes smoothly and gently, adapting any gear changes to suit current driving conditions, with the engine and gearbox electronics controlling the changes.
You can select gears sequentially, just as in a passenger car with an automatic gearbox, and you can easily switch to manual gear change with the lever.
The result is greater comfort and safety, and less stress on you as a driver.
Discover the benefits of Volvo I-Shift. Watch it at work in typical transport situations.

Roadrunners in 10th place after 36 holes of Tucker Intercollegiate
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Senior Stanton Tondre and sophomore Garrison Lackey each fired four-over-par 148s on Friday and UTSA is tied for 10th place after 36 holes of the William H. Tucker Intercollegiate, which is being played at New Mexico Championship Golf Course (par 72; 7,578 yards).
Tondre opened the tournament with an even-par 72 on the strength of five birdies and finished day one with a 76 to end up in a tie for 27th place.
Meanwhile, Lackey followed a first-round 75 with a one-over-par 73 in the afternoon, a round that included an eagle on the par-five first and a pair of birdies.
The duo, which is 10 strokes off the pace set by San Francisco's Cory McElyea (six-under 138), helped lead the Roadrunners into a tie with Utah for 10th place after carding rounds of 301 and 299 for a 36-hole total of 24-over 600.
No. 10 New Mexico leads the 14-team field at eight-under 568 (283-285) and the Lobos are followed by San Francisco (581), No. 21 Colorado (583), No. 30 Baylor (586) and UC Irvine (588).
Freshman Brett Hogan is tied for 62nd after turning in rounds of 81 and 73 for a 154, while junior Ryan Werre and senior Taylor Koser are tied for 64th (155=78-77) and 71st (156=76-80), respectively. Sophomore Reed Stegall, who is competing as an individual, is tied for 51st at 152 (75-77).
The final 18 holes get underway on Saturday morning.
