Sengoku, go watch Condit again, Condits whipped Diaz's arse, head kicks, spinning elbows and all sorts of shit - now if thats running away from a fighter................Just because he didnt stand and bang with the knob that is Diaz who cries every time someone doesnt play his game, boo hoo, he lost, get over it Diaz lad... Diaz doesnt deserve a shot - suspended and a loss, but hey ho its hype and GSP will flatten him and end the Diaz hype train again. He is a solid stand up fighter but look at his record and tell me he really is p4p one of the best....
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
I've got gsp in this one but I think itl be a lot closer than a lot of people think.maybe he isn't the most deserving but itl make for a good fight!

Did you see how much Condit threw at him from the bottom, Diaz does not have as capable a technique I would say to mount an offense from bottom, dude gets put on his back - he loses.
Diaz is a good fighter but fuck me, the hype runs wild for someone who got dunked from the UFC then had fights of an easier calibre in SF... Honestly, Condit was a harder challenge that Diaz for GSP, why do you think GSP wanted to fight Diaz - because he knows he wll steamroll and grapple fuck him. Its not because of just the $$ - if he thought Diaz could beat him, he wouldnt have took the fight - same reason he doesnt want to fight Silva, because even though he will make $$ he may well lose, with Diaz, its an easy night for him I reckon.

He can come out to Mr Blobby for all I care, he might be safer wearing a blobby suit to be honest...
I like Diaz, I just dont see anywhere he can beat GSP, he doesnt hit hard enough ijn a one shot kill kinda way and GSP is never going to let him build up steam and jab him to death.
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
It just made me lol that you used an example of someone being on their back and changing the fight with an elbow. Not saying it could never happen but just found the example used a strange one. No doubt GSP wont just be sitting in Nick's guard, he will be moving looking for position and reigning his own blows down. Nick will have more than enough on his plate defending let alone trying to be using offensive striking, plus he's not going to get much leverage into his elbows when being pinned to his back and cant see him controlling GSP's head with 1 hand?
If you didn't see it with your own eyes, or hear it with your own ears, don't invent it with your small mind and share it with your big mouth!

What Is css
I like to know
I have complete html all ready and I would like to make a membership site con u help me please.
Hi mark, your question is a bit vague. HTML with no CSS is pretty ordinary. It's very easy to find out what CSS is, so do some research, give it a try, and if you get stuck on something, let us know and we'll try to help out.
to make a membership site, for the login u will use one of the auto responder on that site.
HTML defines what your content is. CSS is how you define how it should appear on whichever device is being used to look at it - you can define different CSS for mobile devices, computer screens, printers etc if you like.
To create a membership site you'll need a server side language to handle the login processing etc. CSS can't help you with that as it only defines how the page looks, not what it does.
How can i change a templete color
You first need to learn how CSS relates to HTML. Do a bit of reading on that first.
The main benefit in CSS is that it manages to seperate the style from the content on your web page.It leads to less code behind your web pages which helps the download times of a page.
CSS means cascading Style Sheet. CSS can be modify the web pages at a time. CSS is used for designing the layouts and giving your webpage a better appearance.
This looks like a thread that will go downhill fast, so I'll close it off now. @mark x As I said above, do some research on CSS basics and then feel free to resume questions when there's something you don't understand.

Reds lineup:

Phillips 4
Bruce 9
Rolen 5
Heisey 7
Hanigan 2
Cueto 1
Gotta feeling this lineup can put up some runs, and hopefully Cueto can shut Houston down.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
Over/Under bets on Reds Strikeouts today against a non-strikeout pitcher? Harrell has 11 K's in 22 innings.
I'll say 10 today in 9 innings. Our average is 7.7. Or exactly 20% of the time a Red walks to the plate he strikes out.

Frank Turner To Release Book of Tour Diaries
Happy to announce that I've sorted a deal with Headline Publishing to write a book of tour diaries. Looking at releasing it in Spring 2015.
— Frank Turner (@frankturner) June 18, 2014
Singer-songwriter Frank Turner will publish a collection of tour diaries in the Spring of 2015. Turner dropped the information on Twitter.
The early part of 2015 will be a busy one for Frank Turner. Earlier in June, he told Gigwise that he will release a new album around February of 2015.
Turner told Gigwise that the new album will be more upbeat and "sunnier" than 2013's Tape Deck Heart, "In the future, I suspect that it will be seen as a transitional record of a kind. I'm writing quite upbeat songs at the moment, by my standards anyway - they're still about the long dark night of the soul."

Jenelle Evans & Gary Head: Back in the Slammer
Posted Tuesday June 26, 2012 11:29 AM GMT
They can't seem to get along for more than a few days, and Jenelle Evans and Gary Head landed themselves in jail after a weekend fracas.
According to a report, the "Teen Mom" reality star and her on/off fiance got into a heated argument that turned physical.
The cops were called, and both Evans and Head were taken into police custody, with Head being charged with domestic violence.
Additionally, Jenelle was charged with drug possession. Since the arrest, both have been bailed out of the clink and Gary tweeted that Jenelle has "ruined my life."
Also, the engagement is obviously off (again).

About every other day, it seems, there is a story in the national media, print or broadcast, about library use in these challenging economic times. I appreciate that family, friends, and patrons call them to my attention.
This past week, a Wall Street Journal article entitled "Folks are Flocking to the Library, A Cozy Place to Look for a Job" described the surge in library business from job seekers. That is our experience here at KPL too. Computer use is up over 50% in the past several months. Some of that use is from patrons working on their resume, completing online job applications, and reading job ads. Most of our computer classes are filled; our free wifi is getting more use too.
Come visit soon, whether you are a job seeker, a student, or looking for leisure reading or viewing.

Listen to Nicki Minaj on iHeartRadio
Nicki Minaj has shared a brand new single called "Pills N Potions." The new song is off of her upcoming album The Pink Print and is ready to become her next big hit.
The song has a catchy chorus that fans can sing along to, but still showcases Nicki's rap skills.
Nicki tells Ryan Seacrest, "it's kind of like a tragic love story … I just kind of feel like when I was working on the album, I started realizing how much things have changed, how much people change. And how people come in and out of your life … I've just been reflecting a lot. I love that it has that feeling of 'No matter what, I still love. There's still love there.'"

Fox News Underreports Marriage Equality Victories, First Gay Senator
Research ››› ››› CARLOS MAZA
Fox News continued its habit of downplaying major advancements for LGBT equality after last week's election, underreporting three states' adoption of marriage equality through popular vote and ignoring Wisconsin's election of the country's first openly gay senator.
Analysis: Fox News Underreported Marriage Equality Victories
Marriage Equality Was Adopted By Popular Vote In Three States. Maine, Maryland, and Washington became the first states in the country to embrace marriage equality through popular vote. Minnesota also defeated a proposed state constitutional amendment that would have defined marriage as between one man and one woman. [ABC News, 11/9/12]
Election Day Was "The Most Important And Most Historic In The History Of The LGBT Movement." According to the Washington Blade:
"Years from now we'll remember this Election Day as the most important and the most historic in the history of the LGBT movement," said Chad Griffin, president of the Human Rights Campaign, in a video message... We've won a landslide victory at the ballot box. We've secured the first ever electoral victory for marriage equality in Maine, Maryland and Minnesota. And we're optimistic about the results still to come in Washington state."
Evan Wolfson, president of Freedom to Marry, categorized the election results to the Washington Blade as "irrefutable momentum in favor of the freedom to marry" that will give "enormous confidence" to lawmakers and others to support nuptials for gays and lesbians. Casey Pick of Log Cabin Republicans further described the election results as a "turning point."
"It is something the nation will take notice of," she told the Blade from Maine where she had been working with Mainers United for Marriage in support of Question 1 for the last two weeks. "Never again will opponents of marriage equality be able to say that every time the people vote on the issue they favor marriage as one man and one woman because that's no longer true." [Washington Blade, 11/7/12]
Fox News Underreported Marriage Equality Victories. In the days following the election, Fox News mentioned the victories in Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, and Washington a total of nine times - significantly less than CNN and MSNBC:
- One Segment Devoted To Marriage Equality Victories. Fox News ran only one segment devoted to the marriage equality victories, on Fox Report with Shepard Smith.
- Marriage Equality Bundled With Other Ballot Initiatives. Aside from two mentions on Fox Report, Fox only referenced the marriage equality victories while reporting on the various other state ballot initiatives on Election Night.
Analysis: Fox News Ignored Election Of First Openly Gay Senator
Rep. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) Became The First Openly Gay U.S. Senator. Rep. Tammy Baldwin defeated former Gov. Tommy Thompson for a Senate seat in Wisconsin on Election Day, making her the country's first openly gay U.S. senator. [NBC News, 11/7/12]
Fox News Ignored Baldwin's Historic Victory. While CNN and MSNBC both repeatedly noted Baldwin's historic election to the U.S. Senate, Fox News mentioned her victory only once - while announcing the results of the Wisconsin race Tuesday night. Fox News did not mention that Baldwin is gay.
Equality Matters searched news transcripts provided by TV Eyes for the terms "marriage," "gay," "same-sex," "Tammy," and "Baldwin" between November 6 and November 9. Reruns were excluded, as were mentions of the events initiated by guests rather than hosts. Passing references to the decision, which didn't include a description of what the decision entailed, were also excluded. Teases for upcoming segments were excluded. If a segment mentioned the marriage equality victories while discussing a host of different ballot initiatives, it was counted as a "mention" instead of a full segment.

Gestational diabetes (GDM) is when you have high blood sugar during pregnancy. During your pregnancy, hormonal changes can cause your body to be less sensitive to the effect of insulin. These changes can lead to high blood sugar and diabetes. High blood sugar levels in pregnancy are dangerous for both mother and baby.
The doctor should consider the possibility of GDM starting at the first prenatal visit. Women who are significantly obese, who have previously had GDM, who have a strong family history of diabetes, or who have some sugar in the urine should have a glucose tolerance test as soon as possible.
Whether or not they were tested earlier in pregnancy, most women should be tested between weeks 24 and 28 of gestation, unless they meet all of the following criteria: They are under 25 years of age, had a normal weight before pregnancy, come from an ethnic group without much diabetes, have no known diabetes in close relatives, have no history of glucose problems, AND have never had a poor obstetric outcome.
If you have gestational diabetes, the steps listed here will help you control the disease:
Many women are frightened and upset when they learn about their diagnosis. After the initial shock wears off, most report improving their diet and increasing their exercise level.
Some women may need to treat gestational diabetes with insulin to control blood glucose levels and avoid complications for the fetus. Regular ultrasounds, especially early in the third trimester of pregnancy, will help your doctor decide if insulin is necessary. Your doctor or diabetes educator will teach you the required techniques for using insulin and should provide good support.
Gestational diabetes usually disappears with the end of the pregnancy. You should be checked by your doctor 6 - 12 weeks after delivery. However, if you have had gestational diabetes, you are at greater risk for developing diabetes during a feature pregnancy, as well as later in your life.

Rock Hill, S.C.- A 12-3 run by the Winthrop Eagles to open the second half proved too much for the Tornados to overcome, with BC eventually falling 77-54 in the Winthrop Coliseum on Tuesday night.
The Eagles run gave them a 12-point advantage at the 15:36 mark in the second half, a lead they continued to expand as the game wore on. Gideon Gamble and Shola Diop each had 13 points to lead the Eagles scoring attack, and the pair combined for 13 rebounds.
BC gave Winthrop trouble early, as a layup from Alex Moe got Brevard out to a 2-0 lead to start the game. The Tornados led by as many as nine points in the first half, and were ahead for most of the opening period.
A dunk by Gideon Gamble at the 8:34 mark gave Winthrop their first lead at 23-22, but the Tornados would retake the lead on a Manzey Miller layup on BC's next possession.
Nine first-half points from Miller helped to keep BC within striking distance, and the Tornados were tied as late as 30-30 after a Dominique Pickett three pointer with 1:23 remaining in the opening half. Brevard went into the break trailing by only four at 35-31.
The loss overshadowed another solid performance from sophomore Gerel Simmons, who led all scorers with 18 points. Simmons went 5-for-9 from the floor and 7-for-8 from the line while pulling down four rebounds.
The Tornados are back in action on Saturday as they head to Banner Elk to take on the Lees-McRae College Bobcats in Williams Gymnasium at 4 p.m.

Lew F. Carroll
Not all who made the 1889 Land Run got a claim. Thanks to the diary he left behind, generations of Oklahomans can learn the story of Lew F. Carroll and his family, who ran but did not find land in 1889.
The Carroll family left their home near Chetopa, Kansas, on April 11, 1889, to trek to the opening of the Unassigned Lands in Oklahoma Territory. They loaded their wagon with a tent and camping supplies, food for themselves and their team of horses, a compass, an ax, a single-barrel shotgun, a revolver, and a map of Indian Territory. In preparation for finding a new farm, Lew Carroll tied his sod plow to the side of his wagon. On the way to the Land Run, the Carrolls encountered other settlers on their way to the starting line and American Indians from the area who were, in Lew Carroll's words, "none too friendly, thinking that their country might soon be taken from them."
The Carrolls joined the frenzy at the starting line at noon on April 22, 1889, for "Harrison's Horse Race." At twelve o'clock sharp, the settlers dashed off to claim their land. Lew Carroll and his family searched all day but found nothing available that suited them. They continued their search the next day, but by April 24 they decided to make their way home to Kansas. On May 2, 1889, Lew Carroll reached his home near Chetopa feeling "a little out of sorts, but will be all right soon."
Lew Carroll did not give up on obtaining land in Oklahoma Territory. In the spring of 1890 he and his family moved to the Oklahoma state line near Arkansas City, Kansas to be close in anticipation of the opening of the Cherokee Outlet. Lew Carroll staked his claim in that Land Run in 1893.

GSA Proposes Changes to Contracts for Government Charge/Credit Account Services
June 13, 1996
Contact: Hap Connors
As part of its ongoing drive to enhance the services provided to federal agencies, the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) today announced it is proposing to change its single vendor-single service program to a multiple vendor contract award for each of its charge/credit account programs. The proposed new system will further simplify purchases of more than $4 billion a year of travel, supplies and services, and fuel by federal employees and agencies.
David J. Barram, Acting GSA Administrator, described the proposal as another example of how GSA is using business practices to put the customer first, cut red tape and empower employees to get results.
Under the proposal, the new multiple vendor contracts would allow federal agencies to select and apply appropriate commercial services and emerging technologies to their own operations. GSA will play a key role in facilitating governmentwide access to current and emerging commercial services and catalyzing joint government and industry reinvention efforts, Barram said.
Frank P. Pugliese, Jr., Commissioner of GSAs Federal Supply Service (FSS) said, The change in buying strategy reflects GSAs new interactive contracting approach, which challenges industries to develop value-added services that streamline Government operations.
Since the 1980s, contractor-provided charge/credit accounts for government travel, supplies and services and fuel have been negotiated and procured by GSA under single award contracts for each program. These programs provide simplified payment tools for federal agencies.
Pugliese said that moving from single award to multiple contracts, which would become effective in November 1998, represents a dramatic shift in procurement policy for governmentwide financial services. Multiple vendors meeting governmentwide requirements could be awarded long-term contracts for providing charge/credit account services for one or more business lines (e.g., travel, supplies and services, and fuel). Vendors meeting governmentwide requirements could also offer additional value-added services within the scope of their contracts. Federal agencies would have the opportunity to review contractor proposals and select their vendor(s) of choice.
To award the contracts, GSA would use new Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act authority. The initial contract could be effective for five years with renewal options.
GSAs Federal Supply Service buys over $12 billion a year in goods and services for federal customers and will be conducting this procurement. Ira Jekowsky, FSS Assistant Commissioner for Transportation and Property Management, heads a steering group of FSS program and procurement experts that will seek input from customers, industry and other stakeholders, and draft a statement of work to be circulated for comment.
Details of the proposal were posted in the Commerce Business Daily. GSA will host an industry briefing on July 10 in the Washington, DC area, where interested parties may offer comments about the proposal during a question and answer period. The agency is also accepting written comments within 30 days after the briefing.
The time and location of the GSA industry briefing will be announced within the next few days. For more information on registration, contact Rebecca Koses by June 26, 1996, at (703)305-5071. To receive the information electronically, either fax your name, company, address, and telephone number to (703)305-5094/(703)305-6268, or e-mail this information via the Internet to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Why the Jersey Shore is No Longer On My DVR List
When I first saw Miss Representation it stunned me—in the best of ways. I didn't immediately take the time to reflect on it, but then a few nights ago I was unlucky enough to witness the newest Carl's Jr. commercial, where a very hungry Kate Upton seductively devours a burger while wearing basically, well, nothing. And after 23 years of demeaning media onslaught, I'm thinking I've had enough.
Before watching Miss Representation, I indulged in the occasional "guilty pleasure"—reality TV being my wind-down-at-the-end-of-the-day treat. I saw no harm in it. It's just mindless entertainment, right? Shows like Jersey Shore and Keeping Up With The Kardashians were among my favorites. But that was before the film, before my eyes were opened to the very (real) poison of this seemingly harmless …

RANCHO CUCAMONGA -- Assistant Library Director Michele Perera was recognized by the city on Wednesday for being listed by Library Journal as a 2013 mover and shaker.
Perera was recognized for her work in developing Play and Learn islands used in the library. Inspired by interactive displays found in museums, the grant-funded Play and Learn islands help young people learn concepts such as energy sustainability.
"I just want to say it's truly great to be a mover and shaker," adding that she couldn't have made the list without supportive library staff, city officials and library foundation fund-raisers.

Post subject: hornby's state of the franchise
Going to rate the different player groups as I see them and give some genral thoughts.
QB. Weeden has been ok for a rookie. He does miss a hell of a lot of open guys. He reminds me a bit of DA. He seems to want to either go deep or drop it down to the RB. Missing a lot of open mid range targets. Unlike DA I think he is smart enough to fix this.
I want to stick with Weeden but who knows what a new coach will do....
RB. I really like our stable of RB's. Trent is going to be a beast and is now hitting the hole hard. The other guys are all able to contribute in some way.
I don't see a new coach doing anything here.
WR. We have tons of talent if they develope like we hope they will we don't need to do anything with this group. Having said that I would not complain if we threw some money at Greg Jennings.
TE. This group badly needs a upgrade. Watson has very little left, Smith is what he is and Cameron.... He flashes real talent but he has shown less that Evan Moore did to this point and it's more likely he doesn't turn out great than he turns into something awesome.
FB..... Owen sucks and if there is new coaches in place next year he is gone. Look for a late round pick to be spent here.
OL. Started the season slow but are playing well now ( since Pinkston has been out....) I can see us adding a Guard in FA.
DL. Jabael Sheard where are you? After last season i had really high hopes for him. We will be adding a DE I think we are all in agreement that it's a big need. As for the inside of the DL. WOW the two Rookies are going great for where they were taken and Rubin and Taylor are young too. These guys are great and hopefully all here for a long time.
LB's. Started the season great but have fallen off. JMJ looks like he will be solid. Really need an upgrade at the other OLB spot.
DB's. Joe and TJ form a great core but we really need a ball hawk FS. We don't make enough turnovers out if this group. Sheldon has been nice this year. I would be all for him getting two more years.
K. Dawson is awesome nough said.
P Reggie maybe you should just run them all for 60 yards....
Overall I feel like we are a lot better than 2-7 but we are young so we have not worked out how to win yet.
I really feel the right coach will walk in here and we will be rolling.
The AFC north is there for the taking. Ravens and Steelers are not what they used to be. Bengals only have one more win than us.
Banner and Haslim have a huge important off season coming up. They get the GM (hope it's Heckert) and coaching choices right and this thing will turn around fast.

The state of our franchise starts at the top and Haslam is motivated to win with a winning team. Haslam will be "hands on" unlike Lerner who was detached for some unknown reason. Banner is a proven professional and brings more to the table than Holmgren. Clearly this team of two winners should be the impetus for bringing the right GM and Coach although there will have to be a reason to replace and H&B have demonstrated patience. Most of the position coaches are safe except Chilly, Cromwell, and Whipple as the offense just does not have any identity, sense of improvement, and ability to score touchdowns. In a passing league, we have had three years to get with the program and our passing offense is ranked #30 and has only briefly been higher when McCoy had a little run last year. My gut feeling tells me Heckert will be retained if he agrees to somewhat reduced role and Shurmur is long gone.
Browns personnel are being evaluated and your assessment is reasonable although there is a lot of football left this year as well as some needs. All the business people are working for their jobs too which provides motivation. Browns brain trust including Haslam, Banner, Holmgren, Heckert, and Shurmur surely should have a good feel for the personnel as they make the right decisions moving forward. The new management team must have a plan in order to operate.
Fan base is strong and motivated for a winning franchise as Browns fans will support a team of professionals.
Stadium and all other facilities are state of the art. Easy access and parking!

Reasonable evaluation. If there is a way to lose a game this team will find it.
Bottom line it starts and ends with Weeden. Right now drafting a q.b. in the first round could happen though unlikely.
I like our offensive. players overall. Tight end must be adressed. Mistakes must be addressed. Thomas,Mack and Richardson are very good players. Flash Gordan and Schwartz look like they will become very good players. Little and Weeden have a chance to. Guards are better than some think.
On defense we need another pass rusher. We also need to stop the run. Pass coverage by our linebackers is terrible. Free safety is very weak. Haden,Brown and Ward on the whole have played well. J.M. Johnson looks to be improving. Give us an impact player at free safety and def. end and this defense gets a lot better. Linebacker needs improvement also. Love Billy Winn.

2 sides of the coin
Da bad
This team is currently in the worst situation it has ever been since 2009 Mangini the week after we fired Kokinis. We are nnot sure about the QB right now. As Banner stated Weeden is going to be Evaluated.
It does not get any worse than this not knowing whether your GM HC or QB are going to be there next season.
The flip side to this is we are also in the best situation we have ever been since going into the end of Palmers last season right before we hired Butch Davis 2001.
We finally have a owner in the house showing up every week to watch his team. We are going to end up killing it this off season. My crystal ball says something like this.
#1 Scott Pioli
#2 Heckert
#1 Andy Reid/John Gruden
#2 Chip Kelly/Nick Saban
#1 Geno Smith/Matt Barkley/Tyler Bray/Landry Jones
#2 Ryan Mallett/Mike Vick/Kevin Kolb/Matt Flynn
#3 Weeden/Colt
Haslam is going to spend money on a #1 WR my guess is Jennings or Bowe. Plus one solid defensive player either Grimes/Osi/Avril/Byrd.
I hope we finish strong this season win 5 maybe 6 games would really help this teams confidence....

I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but I'm not necessarily really big on bringing in Pioli.
He's done a "bang up" job in KC.

Architect Bradford C. Walker, AIA, LEED AP, calls this Boston penthouse loft "Urban Living XXL." And with 18-foot ceilings and nearly 5,000 square feet of floor area, it lives up to the name. "It's a true loft," Walker says—"a big, open, light-filled space, not just a studio apartment being marketed as a loft." On his first tour of the unfinished premises, the architect decided, "We should play that up … make it feel empty in some ways."
The resulting build-out celebrates sheer volume with a kitchen/living/dining room Walker describes as resembling "a big Italian courtyard. Everything opens off of that space." A long wall clad in Koto wood panels forms the inboard boundary of the room. "The kitchen kind of embeds itself into that wall," says Walker, who set the area apart from its wood surround with a grayscale palette of stone counters, laminate cabinets, and stainless steel appliances and accents. Dark-stained bamboo floors underscore the room's scale.
The island—a folded plane of figured Ice Flower soapstone that wraps a bank of laminate cabinets—offers a dramatic stage for entertaining at home, and its 20-foot length accommodates ensemble productions. "You can have three or four people helping you prepare a meal if you want," Walker observes. But the island's scale doesn't overwhelm its setting. "It's a big thing in a big space, and it allows the kitchen to work very informally in this loft setting."
Informally, yes, but with a hidden assist when necessary. A panel in the sink wall hinges for access to a butler's pantry with its own sink, refrigerator, and dishwasher. "When it's closed, you don't understand it's a door at all," which makes for seamless party service, he notes. "You can actually do catered things out of that back pantry." A second secret door opens from the kitchen into the wine cellar.

transcript:
I'll bet all your old photographs and negatives are sitting around in boxes like this.
But with digital photography the clutter is gone.
But so are your durable negatives and prints.
Those one-of-a-kind photos you've been stockpiling on your computer could be wiped out in a hard drive crash.
Backing up your images is the only way to ensure the safety of the future.
The first thing you want to do is organize your pictures.
Scroll through and delete the ones that you don't want.
Then make a new album and for the pictures you do want.
And drag your images to it.
Now export the group to a new folder.
Jpeg or Tiff are good formats.
Make sure to select maximum quality and full size.
Good forms of backup media are hard drives or CDs and DVDs.
The last step is to backup by either copying your picture folder to hard drive...
Or burning to disk.
Technology moves fast so don't get left behind.
Down the road you'll want to revisit your archived images and make sure the formats and media are still in popular use.

Justin Bieber & Usher being sued for copyright infringement
Listen to Justin Bieber on iHeartRadio | Listen to Usher on iHeartRadio
Justin Bieber is being sued for ten-million dollars. A pair of artists claim they wrote his 2010 hit "Somebody To Love." Bieber's mentor Usher, who is also featured on the song, is also named in the copyright infringement lawsuit.
Filed in Virginia Thursday, the suit comes from an R&B singer who goes by the name De Rico and a songwriter named Mareio Overton. According to TheWrap.com, Overton claims he wrote the song for De Rico back in 2008 and took it to a talent scout who told them Usher had heard it. The two also say they spoke to Jonetta Patton, Usher's mother and part-time manager, who confirmed that the star had been exposed to De Rico's album - and even considered bringing him on tour.
"Somebody To Love" was the second single off Bieber's My World 2.0 album. It peaked at number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Would you buy a car without first seeing it or taking it for a test drive?
Probably not, and employers feel the same way about job candidates. They want to know that an applicant reliable, will fill their needs, and won't quit when the road gets bumpy.
But how do employers "test drive" candidates before making a job offer without the process being too time consuming or expensive?
One solution has been video interviewing. Companies such as HireArt weed through job applicants and send short videos of good fits to potential employers.
As part of that test drive, employers also may request candidates take on challenges to show their aptitude for a job, HireArt's co-founder Elli Sharef says.
An engineering company may pose a coding challenge to an applicant, or someone claiming social media expertise may be asked to come up with sample tweets, Sharef says.
"We really think video interviewing is going to take off because for the first time it's possible with the number of webcams and the increasing number of job applicants for each position," Sharef says. "Employers just find having such richer candidate information is helpful."
That's why chances are good that sometime in your professional career you will have to do a video interview.
To make a good impression, experts say you should:
Be enthusiastic • Because channeling energy when you're staring at a computer screen may be difficult, it's important you appear upbeat, Sharef says.
Think about why you're passionate or excited about the job, then pump yourself up to sit down and let that show through. Think about listening to your favorite music beforehand or reading inspirational quotes to get yourself in the right frame of mind.
Dress professionally • Wearing your fraternity T-shirt or having messy hair hanging in your face won't make a good impression.
If you don't appear professional, an interviewer will be distracted, and you'll convey the message you didn't care enough about the job.
Wear the same kind of clothes you would to an interview. Avoid busy patterns on clothes because they become distorted on screen. Don't wear jewelry such as bracelets that might make noise as you move.
Check your background • Beer bottles, dirty laundry and your 12 cats shouldn't be visible.
Clean up the area as much as possible, and make sure your face is lighted clearly. Lighting only from above can cast shadows and make you look tired.
Any noisy children or pets need to be out of the area.
Sit tall • You may not even realize how much you slump before a computer until you see yourself on video.
Make sure you're positioned so you're directly in front of the screen. Keep your eyes on the video camera "eye" so that it appears you're looking directly at the viewer.
Make sure you don't swivel in your chair, and avoid nervous gestures such as jiggling your leg, which can cause your whole body to move.
Be a bit spontaneous • It's OK to practice what you want to say so you come across as articulate and confident in the video, but Sharef says one successful candidate notes he used only a couple of "takes" so he would come across as genuine.
"You don't want to be reading notes," she says.
Do your homework • When crafting your video pitch, find ways to note that you understand the industry and the company.
For example, you may want to talk about the company's commitment to sustainability as a reason you would like to work there.
Finally, ask a friend to watch your video interview and get feedback, or practice before a mirror and record your pitch so you can work to eliminate indecisive words such as "maybe" or "kind of."
You need to sound confident and well spoken during an interview. Any flaw can get you deleted quickly from an interviewer's files.

Omni Providence Hotel
Top Business Hotel
One West Exchange Street, Providence, RI
0.3 km from
The hot tub didn't work :-(
I liked how close the Hotel was to many fun bars and exciting things to see. I didn't like the staff, the hair that was all over my room and not having any food available 24hr.
Great location. Easy walking to many attractions.
Beds were extremely comfortable Breakfast in room was too expensive
Actually booked the room from my iPhone while driving up 95, a half hour before arrival. Great deal through Kayak. Although it was very late, the staff were pleasant and polite. The room was perfect for my high school senior son and myself.
It's clean and was a large room. We checked in at 11 pm after a long drive excited to get to bed. We were kept up for hours when what sounded like a trash compactor was on all night. It was SO LOUD and we live in a city so we are used to noise. I just can't believe they put us in that room and that they charge people money to stay in a room that is next to some sort of loud machine.
This hotel is in the heart of downtown Providence and it's connected to the Providence Place Mall as well as the Dunkin Donuts Convention Center. Self parking is $18 per day and valet parking is $28 per day. Valet has come and go priveleges whereas self parking does not. WiFi is also pricey if you would like a decent connection. It came in at $15 per day.
We loved the location and consistency in Omni hotels. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Very nice restaurants and close to mall with high end stores which I loved. Comfy beds and my 2 kids under 2 loved it as well. Only occasional chair in room needed to be changed or cleaned as stains on cream shows up unfortunately.
stayed two nights at the hotel for my 21st and Valentine's Day. the hotel is right in downtown providence. easy to walk to places. also enjoyed that the hotel was connected to the providence place mall. my boyfriend and I stayed in a premier room so we had beautiful views of downtown. We paid extra to get a corner room which we thought would have been bigger than it was. The room next to us had a young child who spent the night screaming from 4am-noon, so we didn't get much sleep the first night. Wifi was expensive as well as parking. Also from our room you could hear the elevator every time it came up and down past our floor which was annoying at times. we purchased a movie one night to watch and the movie skipped. the front desk did not charge us for it, but you would think for paying $18 for a movie that the quality would have been better
The reception staff was accommodating and, refreshingly, genuine interested in being of service and help to all guests.
Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was clean and well appointed. Pool area was fun and we enjoyed the hot tub. I felt a little nickel and dimed: the parking was expensive and there weren't other options in the area. It added a lot of cost to what seemed to be, initially, a great deal.
The hotel is right next to downtown and connected to the mall and convention center. The Internet was too expensive and parking was a bit pricey as well.
Central Providence. Five to ten minute walk to area colleges, civic center, numerous restaurants, boutique and mall shopping. All rooms recently and tastefully renovated. Starbucks on site. Excellent staff. Immediately surrounded by historic buildings. Peregrine falcons nest on nearby building (the "superman building"). Expensive ($28) valet parking. No overnight parking on any of city's streets.
Room was huge (stayed in junior suite alone), very clean, staff polite and attentive, especially house car/valet folks. Proximity to everything was perfect. I wish I could stayed more than one night!
Nice stay as usual Housekeeping interrupting us 3 times in the morning claiming they weren't notified by the desk about our late checkout for 1pm therefore interrupting our extra needed rest
Suite with 2 kings and living area good decor and comfort
Location Empty vending machines Dirty Loose fixtures in bathroom
It has charm and a richness.
Attitudes of staff
Nice place. Great location. Really small rooms. Do NOT get any of the rooms with a room number that ends in 29!!
Almost everything about the Biltmore is awesome. It's a beautiful hotel. It's got a ton of charm. The rooms are spectacular. The beds are comfortable. The staff is amazing. The location is central and perfect. It's one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in including various Four Seasons etc. I could wax lyrical for hours... but the net-net is that every time I'm in Providence, I'll be staying at the Biltmore. The quality of the room service breakfast was lacking. Poor food quality. No jam for the toast or syrup for the pancakes and the coffee was lame.
Loved this hotel. We got a junior suite (for a great price). Had views of Brown/RISD, the Capitol, etc.
The Biltmore Hotel is a reasonable place to consider for a visit to Providence. It is an older hotel with a historic background and there is a certain charm to staying at such a place in comparison to the typical chain. That said, one must make a few accommodations in this regard. Some things may strike one as dated be it the size of the bathroom, or the trim, or the non-self-closing door (which I actually liked). The skim coat in my shower was cracked..so what?. There is no pool. There is a full-service Starbucks adjoining the lobby. I grew up staying at older hotels with my grandmother. I find them charming. The place is clean and the staff are kind. The bed was very comfortable though rather high off the ground compared to most. The furnishings were contemporary and functioned well. I got a two room suite fit for a CEO for under $200 a night. I have no complaints.
Charming boutique hotel. First-rate front desk staff—friendly and helpful. Ideal location on a quiet side street but close to downtown's shops and restaurants. Easy walk to Brown and RISD campuses
Clean well appointed room. Nice bathroom. K cup coffee and tea. Great location. Good staff and valley. Some minor street noise on the alley side
The bed and the pillows were very comfortable. The staff was very unorganized and were very easy to get confused. The valet parking was a joke.
This is a very attractive hotel. The people are very nice. The rooms are attractive with comfortable beds. There is a bar downstairs with excellent music and no cover. The food at breakfast was excellent. The booking never got through to the front desk, but they honored the price on my confirmation email.
Excellent location. Helpful, friendly staff. Great room. We had a wonderful time.
The location of the hotel was great with lots of bars, restaurants and event locals close by. Hotel was a bit below its normal price point in my opinion. Our suite was very nice but the shower sucked. I'm glad that we got a promotional/discount rate.
We booked this hotel because we were in town for one night, visiting the Waterfire festival. The location was great, close walking distance to the festival, downtown shopping, and restaurants. The hotel staff/policies were incredibly unhelpful. We were informed when we checked in that if we had called and asked for the military/ government rate we would of paid less than 50% of what we were charged. Of course, there was nothing they could do about it now. What they didn't tell us at check in was that the deluxe king room we had reserved and paid twice what we should of for, was unavailable. They happily checked us in and sent us up to what I can only assume is the worst room in this 4 star hotel. The glass shelf in the bathroom was broken, there was a large stain on the carpet, the door was so crooked on the hinges there were cracks you could easily see through at the top and bottom. But worst of all, it was a QUEEN sized bed, not KING. Shouldn't be the end of the world, but paying double what we were supposed to and then not even getting what we payed for- not really okay. Assuming they gave us the wrong room unintentionally, we gathered our things and went back to check in, where we were told that A: they can't change our room because the hotel is completely booked. B: it was in the fine print of "whatever website" we booked on that the room wasn't guaranteed. C: there was no offer of a rate reduction or other forms of compensation. Well, after reading all the terms and conditions of the website, and finding nothing mentioning the room not being guaranteed, we called the website, who did everything in their power to help, but we ended up cancelling the hotel reservation (through the website, not the hotel) for a full refund. No complaints about the website, they even went so far as to call all the other 4 star hotels in the area trying to get us a transfer. The hotel on the other hand, is a buisness I hope never to meet again.
It was a beautiful hotel with pleasant, helpful staff. The room was elegant and had everything we needed. It was centrally located. Near both great restaurants and the Providence Performing Arts Center where we caught a show. The front desk staff was a little slow when checking out. Other than that . . .it was all great.
We loved everything. The hotel was beautiful, comfortable and ideally located. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I can't say enough. I will definitely stay here again. Everything was ideal.
Quiet street in noisy city Great staff Decor Stability ball in gym was deflated, so minor.
very clean, nice and efficient! Thanks!
The staff were great, not only attentive but cheerful and genuinely friendly, enjoyed chatting with us. Only a few blocks to walks along the river. Nice big room, really soft bed. We stopped here on the way home from Maine to Brooklyn, NY, and probably will again next year. The coffee.
People were generally friendly, but a lack of either flexibility or authority with the front level staff was mildly upsetting. I booked two nights separately online. (I decided to add a night to the stay in advance of going). When I got to the hotel I mentioned this and they said it wouldn't be an issue. Just to check back in the next day. When I went to check back in at 8 AM, it was an issue. They wanted to move me because someone had already checked in online for my room? I had to spend half an hour and speak with 3 people to get it resolved. The woman at the front desk originally told me there was nothing they could do. It would have been nice if she had offered to check with someone rather than me having to ask to speak with a manager.
Convenience and good service of the hotel staffs. Room cleanliness is good and comfortable. only free wifi at the hotel lobby.
Perfect location for show @ DD Center, & walking distance to plenty of sights/restaraunts/bars/shopping. Daily parking rate of $25. Walked everywhere, so didn't use car for two days.
The check in & concierge were efficient. Although whilst they foced on dining. I believe for me it would have been more advantageous to mention the trolley tour bus which shows you around the city as I was only there for one day & had travelled from Australia. By the time I read a brochure Sunday morning the tours didn't start till 11.00 when I was ready to leave.. Also my daughter Julie has called the hotel as they had debited our credit card almost $500 even though I paid cash Saturday. As at Yesterday this matter still had not been rectified. We had two rooms there, perhapsd as a good will gesture you could comp them a room in the future. Regards Kathleen Roberts Other thana the hotel breakfast lounge we couldn't find anyway else for breakfast.
The professionalism of the reservation agent at the hotel. They did not have the reservation that I made in their system. So had I not called ahead of time to cancel, there would've been some awkwardness of having booked the room online only to not have it in the hotels system.
The great restaurant and security No
The location was perfect for the seminar we were taking the price was very high for what we received.
Very expensive for a very basic hotel.
Staff were helpful Bathroom was very small and needed some renovation. Room was dark and could have used better lighting.
Having made a reservation for two doubles in june for oct, we arrived to find there were none available. We were give a king and rollaway torture bed. We wetre told that rooms were given to walk-ins first come, first serve. Why do you take our phone # and credit card? Parking outrageously expensive with no options.
Comfort of the room & location to the conference facilities in the city On the final night, there was a disturbance (drunk young men) on our floor. Despite being informed at 2.30am - the staff/security did not deal with this issue until 5.30am. By this point, my night's sleep was beyond repair! We were not offered componsation for this - which was very disappoionting, as we paid a lot of money for this room, and only managed a few hours sleep.
Bed squeeked.
Hotel was beautiful, rooms very clean and staff very helpful
Everything about the Dean felt like it had been planned out very meticulously. The lighting, amazing linens, and custom soaps and shower gels were all perfect. We kept discovering great "little" gems throught our whole stay!
The staff was friendly. The rooms are smaller which is fine. Lack of coffee maker Small ironing board No closet
On a college tour with my 17 year old daughter and she fell in love with Providence mainly because of the experience we had at and around the Dean. Great service; everyone was friendly and helpful. The rooms and public spaces were eclectic but comfortable. Highly recommend it.
The coffee shop has excellent expresso, delicious! The elevator is an old fashioned "lift". Young people running the reception have wonderful, polite personalities! WiFi works well. Rooms have wood floors, nice decor, very clean ! I do like the hotel, and sincerely enjoyed my stay. I actually extended it two additional days! You wouldn't bring young children, I say, because of the lift.
The hotel delivered as expected. Rooms were up to date. The shower was a bit tricky to use. Cost of parking $26 was a bit high
Enjoyed the bars downstairs at the hotel. The staff was pretty pretentious.
Friendly staff and great location. Near a train station that can get you to Boston. Parking garage had many open stalls making it convenient to park. Price to leave car overnight felt high. The vanity was crowded for two guests.
Great staff, big rooms, clean A bit expensive to park car ($26 a night)
View was nice from the room, staff was very nice. Parking is not included. 20 to park per day, and 26 if you have to take your car out at any point that day.
Room and staff were excellent. No pool or hot tub and the fitness center is too small.
Gooo everithing Ok
The hotel was in an excellent location and the room had a picture perfect view! The washer and dryer were both coin operated; however, a change machine was lacking. Replace the washer and dryer!
The hotel was a close walk to the mall and the park as well as a nice stroll to other local restaurants. We got a nice view of the city and the halls were quiet for sleeping in. It cost $26 a day to park in their parking lot. And my sister in law got a fold out couch for her to sleep on and the mattress had red-ish makeup all over it and it was very uncomfortable.

Joey Jesso, a 57-year-old Stephenville Crossing man, was released from custody when he appeared in provincial court in Stephenville on Tuesday charged with assaulting the owner of a home in Port au Port East.
Sgt. Cathy Whitehead of the Bay St. George RCMP said police received a report at 7:50 p.m. on Monday evening that someone was breaking into a house in Port au Port East. It was alleged by the owner that he had been assaulted by Jesso.
When police arrived Jesso was not at the residence but was picked up in a vehicle afterwards and charged with the assault, along with break and enter and kept in custody until his Tuesday court appearance.
Whitehead said the two men are known to each other.
Jesso's next court appearance is set for June 16.

Kadayi sets up the Voight-Kampff for Duff
'You're in a desert, walking along in the sand, when all of a sudden you look down... '
Printable View
Episode 4, more like episode bore.
When Duff originally said "my friend" what he really meant was "I SOBBED LIKE BABBY". I'm not starting episode 5 till wednesday, but I think i'll sob like babby too. I can't see this being anything but sad.
I wonder if they'll ever get to the point that our protagonists are people who've grown up in that world.
The problem with going too far forward in time is that you're effectively heading into 'The Road' Territory where in that whole veneer has just given way to out and out survival, and everything is extremely reductive in nature. All existing food supplies would be long gone (any survivors would have to be farming to feed themselves..even cannibalism will only get you so far), ammunition would be largely used up and the managing of walker herds (in terms of keeping them away) would likely be the key concern.
I think the road is a great book...I'm not entirely sure it would necessarily make for a great game however. Even 'The last of us' despite it's bloody E3 presentation is still a sanitized Apocalypse.
So, Episode 5
I hid my bite from the group, told them I had to go for Clem alone, and that they should all get the boat sorted.
I don't remember it being explicitly said in my game that Christa was pregnant, but it was hinted that everyone knew.
Ben survived Crawford because my Lee didn't leave anyone behind. Yeah, I took Lily with me.
(on that note, Lily is obviously having a breakdown after her Dad dies in Ep 2. It turns out she's right about the supply theft, but her behaviour is erratic and manic regardless. I didn't see it coming - and I had to pause the game and calm down for a few minutes right after - but it seems plausible to me that someone having that kind of paranoid episode, and who has a gun, would do what she did)
I went to Vernon's hideout alone and chopped my damn arm off. That was some gruesome, fucked up shit. I don't know how many cuts it takes your friends if they come along, but it took Lee far too many. That was not easy gaming, even after Episode 3. Then my PC bluescreened and I reloaded back at the start. I did not chop his arm off again.
Ben was with the group. Ben fell. Kenny died. I wasn't sorry when Ben died, even if I'd saved his life before. His actions killed Carly and Duck and Katjaa and then, ultimately, Kenny. He was a fuckup and I hated him at the end, but he was alive and I kept him alive as long as I could.
I sent Omid and Christa to the train and went on alone. I didn't notice the station wagon.
I strangled that fucking kidnapper with my bare hands, but Clem killed him. I wish she hadn't had to do that. Even if I hadn't taken the food from the station wagon, I'd have killed him anyway. He'd taken Clem from me.
Clem handcuffed me to the radiator, killed the guard, and then I told her to leave. I didn't want her to see me die, and I didn't want her to see me come back. I didn't want Clem to be the one to have to kill me again. She'd done enough.
I wont be playing through Season 1 again, unless I can convince someone else to play through it. My Lee is dead, and like my Shepherd, his story is told. To try to retell it would cheapen the emotional experience (I say that even though I was horrified by how poor the original ME3 ending was and even though I replayed the extended cut)
It'll be a crushing, crushing disappointment for me if season 2 drops the quality of writing in any regard. I'm looking forward to it.
Poor PewDiePie :(
I finished. http://www.jaketucker.com/aftermath-...ead-episode-5/ Pile on and leave your comments! - Basically, I was underwhelmed with episodes 4/5, I felt like Episode 3 took all the emotions I had out of me.
I reckon most people have their limits when it comes to the crushing hopelessness of The Walking Dead, they eventually get burnt out and turn away. It's really important to balance things with moments of hope and beauty. The normalcy of the farm, petting the cow, the back and forth between Lee and Clem (did you lick it? the door was unlocked), these few precious moments seem to dissipate around episode 4.
I finished the game last night.
I don't think I'll play it again. I've been reading some of your stories of what happened to get an idea of it, but the game is not a fun game to play. I did not feel happy at all when it was over and I've never had a show, movie, book or game make me that upset before.
Here's how my final few hours played out.
By the time Lee was bitten the usual suspects are dead, so Duck, Katjaa are gone. Larry was killed by Kenny. Doug was killed by Lilly. Lilly stole the RV and drove away, I don't know what happened her. Carley died in the first episode.
I hid my bite from the others, I was desperate to get Clem and wasn't about to waste time with them pestering me over a bite, so I chose to go it alone. I hacked my own arm off hoping it would save me, it was easily the worst scene I've ever played. I thought the scene in the woods cutting that dudes leg off was bad, but this just took the cake.I got it over with as fast as I could.
Ben got Kenny and himself killed. I had a feeling it was him who was supplying the bandits with the drugs, but at the time I was a man of "kill nobody and leave no man behind" (I left the two brothers alive for instance). In retrospect I should have left him to die in the bell tower or at the side of the road. Perhaps Doug would've lasted longer. I'm not entirely sure if Kenny did die though. I didn't hear him scream like I expected after he shot Ben.
I crossed the sign first, I had a feeling it would break. I told those two to meet Clem at a boat. It was a mistake I know, but I was rushing. I didn't want to send them near the train because that seemed to be the direction the walkers came from.
When I saw the station wagon I knew who had taken her. I didn't take any supplies from the strangers car, but he blamed me anyway because "my group" took supplies and as a result his wife and child left him. I tried to ration with him but when I saw the bag I knew he was gone. For a moment I feared it was Clems head in that bag. I had her put a cleaver in his arm and then I choked the life out of him.
In the end I had her put a bullet in Lee. She had already seen her parents as walkers and she couldn't stand the sight or thought of Lee being one, so I felt it was the best for her. It would also prove to her that she could make tough calls and do things that nobody should have to do when needed. It was a life lesson for this horrible brave new world.
One thing that I guessed at, but that was never confirmed until crossing the sign was Christa was pregnant. I guessed it myself out of game in Episode 4 because of her reactions and her vomiting. But at the crossing she mentioned "walking for two now". That was the first time the characters ever spoke of it. It was very strange.
There's clues right from when you meet them - Omid's "hey, a kid!" reaction to Clementime (though unfortunately some mistook him for a creepy child molester) and his panicked "she's a woman, don't you know..." comment on the train escape. I put that second one down to pure chivalry until episode 4, when it clicked for me as Christa vomited and a concerned Omid double checked on her. By episode 5 Lee has pretty much figured it out, even if the player hasn't.
I noticed most of it except I pulled her onto the train because he had hurt his leg and by that stage I was getting tired of people being a liability. SO I didn't get to hear him say his line. She gave out to me because of his leg though.
So who in peoples view was the weakest or lamest character? Not in physical strength or ability of course, but in a "I didn't care for that guy/girl because he was just dull"?
I finally got round to playing this a week or so ago (got it in a sale ages back, never played it, finally was driven to by seeing it get 'best game of 2012' votes left and right). Bloody hell, seriously, bloody hell. I'm not ashamed to say that last scene had me tearing up something chronic. Here's how it all played out for me:
In previous acts I saved Doug in the drug store, he looked in worse trouble than Carley and from how he was spoken about, he sounded like the kind of guy worth saving, a bit of a hero in spite of how he looks. Then in spite of my policy up to that point of leaving nobody behind, when Lilly shot Doug by accident I was horrified, she crossed the line, grief or not. I left her on the road to fend for herself.
In Crawford's bell tower I let Ben fall, not through any malice towards him, but the zombies were approaching and he was telling me to let him go. This was his moment of redemption, so I let him go.
I honestly wasn't expecting the events on the rooftops, Christa went down to grab the walkie talkie and ended up attracting the walkers. Then Kenny jumped down and saved her at the cost of his own life, though I suppose it made sense. Kenny had already lost everything, his wife, his son, even his escape route. But damn, I liked that guy.
I went first across the sign, expecting the break, I told Christa and Omid to find me and Clem though. I got a sinking feeling when I saw the hatchback in front of the hotel, I did loot it earlier. Then sure enough, it's the loony who owns the hatchback inside. I had Clem hit him with a bottle, then went to strangle him. Before I could finish the job Clem shot him through the head though, I wished like hell she didn't though, she was the last person I wanted blood on the hands of.
In the final scene I had Clem shoot Lee. This is one murder she had to go through with, she had to be able to make those impossible choices and do what's right. But Christ that whole last scene was heart-wrenching, the realisation that this is finally 'it', when Lee just can't get up anymore.
I don't think I'd play the game again if you paid me to, I know the game is basically linear, but it felt like choice and consequence all the way through. I won't turn TWD into 'just a game', it deserves better than that.
I hope I don't have to play it again... I've uninstalled it since finishing, and I've no idea if it wiped out my save games as well - but given that apparently season 2 will be influenced by season 1, I hope those save games are there somewhere!
