Hardcore Gamer: It's rare that you'll see a deal like this, let alone from Wal-Mart, but if you get an Xbox One console from their site, you'll also be able to choose a bonus game.
Wow, it's actually a deal. I expected to come with critically acclaimed titles like Fighter Within.
Lol great for people on the fence but bad for the Xbox division. Never in the history of consoles have there been deals like this within the first 6months of a new system.
This tells us alot. The Ps3 was expensive but never did we see deals like this in an attempt to move hardware. I don't think we can compare last gen sales to this gen. The market has grown since then and the retailers know that people want the Ps4 more than the Xbox 1. I might have to get one since I can't find a Ps4 at all times. Was surprised to see Ps4 in stock two weeks ago at gamestop
Yes there was!
THe first Xbox was lowered in price from 479 euros to 299 within 3 months of it's release in the Netherlands. To compensate for early addaptors they added 2 games with the system. However it wasn't long until those games also came with the 299 one.
In other news, it's not selling.
Even if Microsoft comes out with a 400$ kinect-less Xbox One, I don't think it would sell more.
Why, well let's see...
-The Hardware is still inferior, quality of the games would still be inferior.
-Online and OS needs much needed upgrade since the PS4 and Xbox 360 has more/better online features than the Xbox One and how almost nothing is behind a pay wall on the PS4.
-It would also make it look as nobody likes the Xbox One and aren't willing to pay the 499$ price.
I heard rumors they were going to release a blu-ray disc drive-less version with 1Tb for 399$.
*facepalm* don't do it.
If you are to go all digital, go with 3Tb at the very least. 1Tb is not enough for games that averages 35Gb to 50Gb.
dont wana sound like a troll, but it seems, while PS4 is mostly out of stock and some shops are even upping original price, meanwhile X1 is getting price cuts from retailers (or a free game bonus).
Newegg was giving away bf4 as well. Sweet deals.
New Xbox One sku incoming. Kinectless XBone.
Don't you wish it was true so you and all the other fans can make fun of MS and say they did a 180. Guess what? It's not happening. As said by MS a million times. Keep dreaming though.
No, dumbass! I wish it was true so I could maybe buy one as I intended to before their stupid announcement. Maybe that way I can play with my 2 blind friends who refuse to buy the cheaper more powerful console out of pure brand loyalty.
@George Didn't Microsoft also say a million times that the console couldnt run without Kinect and being connected to the internet once every 24hrs?
What makes you think they won't backtrack again? It's only been what, 4, 5 times already since their may 2013 reveal?
They either sell a kinectless version or lower the price much earlier than expected to compete with ps4. Simple as that. And it'll probably happen sooner rather than later.
Both option will hurt MS, either kinectless or with kinect, but I guess they would loose more by not bundling kinect.
"Maybe that way I can play with my 2 blind friends who refuse to buy the cheaper more powerful console out of pure brand loyalty."
After all the "screw you over" DRM BS, you're still willing to go and buy their system to make sure that they'll implement it once and for all when both PS and Nintendo pass away and Microsoft gains 100% Monopoly just like they do with PCs?
You hate video games or just yourself and the rest of the world?
Not bad. Costco in my city had the Xbox One with two controllers and Ryse for $489 back in December. They sold all 50 units in the first 10 minutes. They still haven't gotten restocked.
an extra controller and Ryse cost $120 separately and it was selling for $489 which made the console costs $369, $30 cheaper than the PS4! it's weaker but cheaper, so it was a good deal no matter how you see it.
Walmart and Gamestop are really pushing the x1 hard
Funny cause they didn't do that for the Ps3 when it was struggling. Or the WiiU as it continues to struggle
Some online retailers have some nice Wii U deals. I picked up and Wii U Windwaker bundle for $260 from Newegg.
I'm waiting for the $199 Wii u and then it's mineeeee. Finally. Excited to play mario and donkey Kong. Just not $300 excited.
What does the PS3 struggling early on have to do with the Xbox One?
It's a comparison between two consoles that struggle to keep pace with the competition early on... Its alarming that I had to point that out for you...
And why didn't include the WiiU in your question? I know why... You target anything Sony with your fanboy lock on system
Before you deny it check your comment history
You have an interesting take on "struggling". The PS3 at launch was rough. The WiiU has under-performed significantly. The Xbox One is selling very well.
The Xbox One sold in 30 days what the PS3 did in 8 months. http://www.scei.co.jp/corpo...
So yeah, I did need you to point the similarities out to me. They aren't very obvious without the fanboy lock on system kicked into overdrive.
yeah and the PS3 at release was aslo an entire forigen concept and had a super high price!
console - 700 + tax
game - same as now
HDMI cable - first console to use it
other new tech..
when i got my ps3 day one it cost me 875 dollars... the xbox one cost me 580....
the ps3 was a huge leap in tech and people were afraid....the Xbox One is still very Familiar to what we are use to and not as technically advanced in comparison to the leap between ps2-ps3. and the price difference to the between the 360 and ps3 was a huge turn off...
You right, its kind of weird that Xbox One is selling better than Xbox 360 did, but it still considered a struggling platform. Did I miss something?
@ SlyFox C
"the ps3 was a huge leap in tech and people were afraid...."
Dude don't be dumb. Most people bought PS3 simply because it included a Blu-Ray drive. Nobody was scared of the tech, they were scared of the games. It was borderline pointless to own for the first two years, so when I finally bought mine, 2 and a half years after it was out, it STILL only held my attention for like year, and I got rid of it. Never once regretted it. I still played all the "EXCLUSIVES" at my friend's house, and most of them are not worth 60 bucks in my opinion, they are 40 dollar games, with the exception of metal gear solid 4. I also enjoyed Lair for some reason, but I bought it for like 7 bucks at gamestop. The xbox one may be inferior to the ps4 in raw power, but Microsoft is NOT struggling or losing on a large scale that people should be worried about.
The PS3 was something that was a bad launch, and it stayed bad until there was MGS4, and it didn't get any better until Uncharted 2 and killzone 2. But those games are not as great as people hype them up to be. The only thing PS3 has going for it in recent years, last 3 years or so, is Shadow of the colossus HD, god of war collection, and the Last of us. Everything else is better on xbox, and runs at higher resolution than PS3. I probably sound like a douche bag, but I'm giving you sony fans a reality check, you are saying the xbox one is doomed, when it is doing better than the ps3 ever did, and the game libraries are strong on both sides. Let the year go by and you will see how comparable these system are. Let's stop hating once and for all.
If your past console can survive some issues, then why can't ours? Get real please. Let's all save our breath from now on...
The Xbox One isn't struggling. What evidence is there other than the internet hyperbole.
You want to see something struggling..look at the Vita and especially the WiiU.
Sales figures...
Its losing ground against the Ps4...
Everyone knows that
Having so much stock on shelves is evidence. It's selling well, as far as the market is concerned, but it doesn't look good to have so much inventory still in stores.
C'mon guy that's your evidence that the Xb1 is struggling? It's not selling as well as the ps4 right now but it's selling just fine.
@ hicken
Idk bro. They didn't spread thin on release spots. It's a tough choice. Do you take the Sony route and release in a lot of countries and have a supply problem? Or do you release in less countries and have extras. The problem now is there aren't that many ps4's and there are xb1's. If someone wants a console they have to decide do I wait or do I just go to the store now?
So in other words it's not struggling. There's just another product performing better. Got it.
When Sony starts to have PS4's on shelves and you can walk in and buy one they won't be considered to be struggling. The PS360 weren't considered struggling because they were on shelves.
Even when the next numbers come out...if the X1 is on par with historic numbers then it still won't be struggling. It just won't be doing as good as the PS4. Nothing at all wrong with that unless you're a console warrior.
I live right outside of Philly and I can walk into any store around here that would sell consoles and walk out with either a PS4 or X1
Just because PS4 is out selling Xbox One doesn't mean Xbox One is doing bad for sells. Remember some people don't choose on how many a console has sold. Some buy for what they want as it should be.
@mrn you're lucky. I live in florida. I was gonna pick up a ps4 earlier but all the targets,walmarts, game stops, toys r us, and best buys within a hr drive didn't have one.
The xb1 isn't "struggling" it just isn't selling as well as the ps4. It's numbers are great.
Had they launched globally, like they originally planned, there'd obviously be far fewer left on the shelf. We're comparing a console whose stock is available in over 50 countries, to one who's stock is in13 countries, and using the formerss availability a barometer of success. Doesn't make much sense.

Aw, this poor thread. I feel so sorry for it, lost in the tide of spam, so far from the black and sandy beach of legitimate replies. I'm sure these language tools are perfectly good, but I'd like to see someone else check them out because I've got too much on my hands already.

It was just about a full ten minutes before anything really happened on "American Idol" tonight. We watched a review of last night's girls, the judges' long slow walk across the stage out to the table (almost a full minute), some extraneous conversation between the judges and Ryan, a recap of the boys (walking slow-mo) during their auditions and then…it was finally time to discover which 10 of the 15 guys would get their chance to perform for America's votes, all hoping to survive another week.
Two, two-hour shows to showcase 20 singers proved too long, especially tonight on the second night of it, which felt painfully slow and full of throwaway conversations. Both nights, the judges attempted dissention felt fake and forced, like they were trying to recreate a little Mariah-Nicki heat. JLo would often softly telling Harry she disagreed (even when she seemed to actually agree) and Keith would overtly state when he did agree with Harry, even though they did mostly all seem to be on the same page.
Like last night, Randy Jackson mentored the singers, joined Adam Lambert and Chris Daughtry
First pulled out of the waiting room, was a singer the judges have always loved: Caleb Johnson. He sang "Stay With Me." As expected, his performance didn't disappoint. C.J. Harris, another judge favorite, got called up next. He told Randy he would sing "Shelter" and Randy said it was "one of the better song choices I've heard tonight." The audience and the judges agreed.
Emmanuel Zidor took the stage next with "You've Got the Best of My Love" to tremendous applause. Harry told him to stay in his lane when he performed and not to stray from the vocals he is good at.
Sam Wolff got his shot, mostly because JLo said he was the one singer that they all absolutely agreed on and was first picked. He sang "Babylon" and tried to take Randy's advice to "loosen up" onstage. He must have, because Keith called Sam's voice "money."
George Lovett was called up, but it look like he knew it before he heard his name as he was putting his earpieces in before he was called. Bruno Mars was his music choice. JLo suggested he control the runs a bit more. Harry felt he was so passionate, he "sung out of control." He got booed again. Keith warned George about the perils of song choice.
The country singer in the group, Dexter Roberts, got his chance to perform as well. Harry was worried he was only able to do one thing and that he might needed to widen his scope if he is going to survive.
With four slots left, Alex Preston was called up and gave a stellar performance, his strength his style, but also his guitar. Keith thought the Damien Rice song he chose was the best pick of the night. Harry said he loved that Dexter ended on a nine. Dexter laughed and said he thought Harry would notice that. Ryan asked what that meant and when Harry explained it was a note, Ryan said he "preferred hole number 19."
Malcolm Allen, who got his start singing in church, got his chance on stage. The judges liked his consistency in previous performances. In this one, JLo looked captivated listening, though she said his performance needs work, though his vocals are top of the list. Harry said Malcolm needs to sing in tune and he got booed for the comment. Keith started to speak, and got cut off quickly by the music for the break, which was amusing considering the amount of time wasted tonight filling space. Ryan did let him speak finally, calling the cue premature. Keith said it was like being at the Grammy's and getting cut off.
And then there was room for just two. Good thing America voted for Ben Briley last, breaking a tie with Neco Starr, because his name was called tonight. "Soul Shine" by the Allman Brothers was Ben's song for the night and he did it with an electric guitar. Harry mostly commented on the knot on Ben's tie, carrying his joke on for a few too beats too long.
The final spot went to Spencer Lloyd, whose good looks were as commented on during auditions as his voice. The audience loved him, but the judges were skeptical about the song choice. But the girls screamed long after he finished singing. And with that, five guys went home tonight with nothing but their experience to date.
Tomorrow we hear how America voted. Votes choose a final ten and the judges, it seems, will choose three wildcards.
Last year was the year of the girls on Idol. Do you think the guys were collectively stronger this week? And did calling this week "Rush Week" make any sense at all? Leave your comments below. Follow Stephanie Krikorian on Twitter @StephieKrik.

Professor of Biology Betsey Dyer says she won't eat "presweetened cold cereals, especially of the sort that cause the milk to turn colors." However, just about everything else (including termites) is on the menu for this adventuresome foodie and scientist who savors experimentation. Her stinky summer snack at the Oxford Symposium on Food and Cookery in England last summer is just one example.
A major exception was "surströmming." I have always felt a bit guilty about the secondhand information that I included about this extraordinary fish delicacy. Surströmming, a specialty of northern Sweden, is one of the many fermented fishes that may be found in cuisines across Asia and northern Europe. The name means "sour herring." However, this is no ordinary pickled herring, of which many varieties abound. Surströmming falls into such an extreme of fermentation that putrefied is a more appropriate word.
According to my description in The Field Guide to Bacteria (Cornell University Press, 2003), surströmming is an "extreme example of food enhanced by halophilic bacteria" and the flavor is "so extraordinary" that very little is exported, and only to certain Swedish expatriates. I wrote that a can of surströmming "bulges disconcertingly" because it is packed while still fermenting and producing odiferous gasses.
In July 2010, I was at the Oxford Symposium on Food, the topic of which was "Fermentation." Renee Valeri (from southern Sweden) presented a paper on surströmming titled "A Preserve Gone Bad Or Just Another Beloved Delicacy?" Like many of the presenters, she promised a tasting at the end of her talk. Upon that announcement, a frisson went through the audience of 200 or so food enthusiasts (or "foodies") who had traveled to the symposium from 26 different countries and who presumably were intrepid tasters of pretty much anything declared to be edible. In my immediate section, a whispered conference revealed that very few would be taking up Renee on her offer. Meanwhile, I was feeling a sort of dread at the opportunity at last to sample something I had written about. I knew enough about myself to know that I would be obliged to add that missing item in my repertoire of fermented cuisines.
But first was Renee's talk, in which she revealed (and depicted) freshly caught (but soon rotten) herring during the year-and-a-half-long process of being putrefied to liquid and slime. Finally, just a hazy fish-like outline remains, composed almost entirely of bacteria and their wastes.
Herring is a staple in traditional Swedish cuisine and often the only protein by which Swedes of old times survived the winter. An abundant summertime catch of herring would be cause for celebration, but then how to preserve it for the long dark months ahead? Why not dry and salt it as many Scandinavians do? Apparently the climate of northern Sweden precludes efficient fish drying as well as sufficient salt production by evaporation. Only a tiny bit of salt could be added to the herring, and this served only to encourage specialized salt-loving "halophilic" bacteria to establish themselves in a roiling culture.
Wintertime hunger and most likely near starvation must have been the impetus for the rapid transition of attitudes of the northern Swedes. First, and very briefly, might have come disgust. But that would be quickly followed by gratitude for anything to eat at all in a snowbound and remote village. Finally (and probably soon after, given the human penchant for rationalization), came a sort of connoisseurship of the many nuanced variations of herring putrefication. Indeed, in some modern northern Swedish communities, late August still begins the surströmming celebrations. The European Union periodically tries to regulate and restrict this fermentation. Currently, it is legal to have cans of it, but people are no longer allowed to produce surströmming in wooden casks or by burying it (composting it, actually) in the ground.
Renee, by way of encouraging us to taste, reminded us that powerful off-putting odors (such as those of wonderful surface washed cheeses) often are accompanied by rich, delicious flavors. But she also provided many examples from the surströmming literature on the notorious nature of the putrid smell.
Renee's talk ended; we could delay the tasting no longer. I began to justify in my mind not eating any. We were about to go to a Szechuan lunch, which was predicted to be exquisite, and I did not wish to destroy my palate. But then the tasting was postponed to tea time (4 p.m.), so I had the rest of the afternoon to think about it, during which time I (and others) wavered.
The can of surströmming, which bulged in a manner that should have made it illegal, was opened outdoors far from the building. Of the 200 symposium participants (all presumably great fans of fermentation), only about 25 got within wind of the table and of these only about a dozen gathered in close, snapping photos like paparazzi. However, few of those were actually planning to taste and gradually most backed away.
How to describe the smell? It was permeating and pervasive and so overloaded (or confused) the olfactory neurons that mine periodically (and deceptively) ceased to smell anything (as though acclimated). Then, a few seconds later, a jolt of the full stench would be fully noted by the olfactory center of my brain, engendering a primitive flight response, which I resisted. It smelled like the enclosed head of a small fishing vessel in which passengers had been seasick all night long as well as suffering from diverse intestinal ailments, and in which the flushing mechanism had finally broken. But that isn't all: in that same unfortunate fishing vessel, a lower hatch recently had been pried open, revealing a horrific sight (and odor), a pile of forgotten herring that had been festering warmly for the last few months in a slippery pool of genuine bilge water.
I stood several feet from the table, building my courage. It did not help that the woman I was with, an expert on ancient Roman fish fermentations that essentially liquefy fish into a sauce called Garum, was not planning to taste surströmming. I said, "Really? Not even out of scholarly duty?" She was quite sure not!
The crowd had cleared so that I had a view of the bacterial fish remains set out invitingly on plates accompanied by Scandinavian flatbreads. The "pieces" of fish ranged from a sort of liquidy puddle to a clot of slime to something that had a bit of structure, albeit slumped. That latter gave me resolve, along with the fact that the samples were small (so as to provide enough for all).
I placed my surströmming on a fragment of flatbread and, well, I ate it. It was like a very complex cheese (that is, well-rotted milk) with a cascade of front flavors, middle flavors and then several layers of lingering surprises. It was intensely fishy along with being almost canonically cheesy: a fish-cheese. It reminded me of an excessively creative effort in marrying essential flavors by an ambitious young chef of a new fusion cuisine.
As for texture, the tiny bones had mostly decomposed, but a few remained for unexpected resistance. It was tolerable. It was not exactly "good," but I could imagine myself in a situation (such as August in northern Sweden at a party, at which vodka was being served) of having more than one "piece."
And, actually, Renee was right; if it were not for the smell, it would be just a notable morsel of very mature pickled herring. When others heard of my feat, they mentioned that I reeked of surströmming. And we were now back in the close, unventilated confines of the lecture hall. One person asked me if I was concerned that it could have gone bad and would there be any way of telling. The heartening news is that it is impossible for the bacterial culture that surströmming is to go bad. It is already there (having arrived many months ago) and there isn't any room for further badness. Q

The Rams knock off Gresham 6-2 to stay perfect early in the league season
Central Catholic relied on its doubles teams to keep pace with St. Marys atop the Mount Hood Conference girls tennis standings. The Rams swept the tag-team matches, all in straight sets, to power past Gresham 6-2 on Wednesday afternoon.
Central Catholics Catherine Anderson and Maddie Belgrave won the most tightly contested showdown at No. 4 doubles, overcoming an early deficit to gain a 5-3 first-set lead on an Anderson put-away at the net.
Gresham fought off a set point to bring up deuce a winner take-all point during the regular season. Belgrave finished off the opening set with a forehand blast that clipped the tape and fell on the other side for a winner.
Central surrendered only six games in the top three doubles matches combined with Rebecca Reiser and Emma Anderson coming up with a perfect 6-0, 6-0 win at the top of the ladder.
The teams split the singles matches with Julia Johnson scoring a 6-2, 6-3 win over Gresham rookie Chelsea Davis in the No. 2 spot. She took command of the second set 4-1 after crossing the width of the court to reach a ball in the alley. Johnson whipped a forehand return over the top of her opponents racquet for a winner that landed in the far corner.
Davis fought off three match points, but Johnson stayed on the attack, coming to the net on deuce point forcing her opponent to target the edges of the court. Davis final shot touched down two inches wide of the line.
My goal was to keep hitting the ball where she was not, force her to go back and forth to both sides of the court and tire her out, Johnson said.
Erin McGinnis picked up a 6-4, 6-4 win in No. 3 singles.
Gresham senior Jessica Emoto claimed a 6-0, 6-2 win over Rams junior Elizabeth Johnson at the top of the singles ladder a match featuring a pair of state quarterfinalists from a year ago.
Emoto claimed the first eight games with a steady flow of fast-paced shots.
I wasnt able to beat her last season, so its a good start, Emoto said. It took a lot of mental focus not getting down when I lost a point.
The Rams take on St. Marys in a battle at the top of the MHC at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, at Willamette Park.

HOUSTON - Harris County officials named a new animal cruelty specialist to its Special Victims' Bureau.
Harris County District Attorney Mike Anderson announced Thursday that prosecutor Belinda Smith was appointed to the position.
The Special Victims' Bureau will provide additional support for investigations of animal abusers and help with the growing case load of animal cruelty offenses, officials said.
"This is a well-deserved honor," said Anderson. "Belinda has done an excellent job working with animal rights groups, the media and the public in raising awareness of this important issue in our criminal justice system."
The bureau includes the family criminal law division, which has three full-time investigators and nine other attorneys, officials said.
"I look forward to working with the investigators, new administration and additional prosecutors to build on our accomplishments," said Smith.

....when i refresh the page, the content show with a blash, then are hidden. why? how to correct it?
find if you forbid the js,all the content can show.what a werid thing
Well, then obviously the Javascript on the page is either hiding some elements or modifying the DOM.
Can you be a bit more specific about "under the category-products div"? Maybe post a snippet from the page source.Then, perhaps, someone can help you narrow down the 'offending' piece of js code.

Yes, as mentioned, it is being hidden by JavaScript. But looking at that long list of scripts you have there, I don't envy your task of looking through them all to find out what bit of code is not letting your content show. Too much JS on that page. :rolleyes:
it's too sad!
One option is to disable one script at a time (comment out the link) to see which one is causing the issue.

The Crap We Missed – Thursday 11.14.13
Welcome to Thursday's The Crap We Missed, where I just learned I work for a God, so excuse me while I go round up every piece of drunken evidence I have on Him (looking at you, apartment stove) and hatch my blackmail scheme. Let's see how he likes only two temple messages a day, sucker! As for today's TCWM, we've got Cameron Diaz reacting to a man guessing she's younger than 52, Mike Tyson pointing out the scary man who keeps eating his pigeons and Mel Gibson placed into a situation that's like putting a starving wolf next to an injured deer, or a maniacal bigot next a possibly homosexual minority.
Last one's a little on the nose, huh? I don't care, it's funny because he murdered that man. That man's dead now,

MARVIN Sordell has encouraged more footballers to speak out about racist abuse.
The Wanderers striker talked about his experiences with racism as part of a special report by Sky Sports News, aired this week.
Sordell reported a racist remark aimed at him by a Millwall fan earlier this season, which led to the youngster being banned from the ground for the "foreseeable future".
The report highlighted that racism is still very much a problem in the game, but the England Under-21s striker believes progress will only be made once players begin to speak openly about the subject.
"The first thing that needs to happen is that we can't be silent," the striker said. "We need to make people aware that there is a problem going on, and only when people are aware of that can it be sorted out.
"I wouldn't say [the abuse] is shocking, but it does surprise me. Living in a country which is very developed and so multicultural, it's surprising that it can still go on, but it doesn't exactly shock me."
Sordell was also part of the England Under-21s squad that was subjected to some horrific racist chants in Serbia last year.
"Sometimes it does give me that bit of fire and make me want to do better just to prove people wrong and show them that I can rise above it," he added.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – Opening their conference campaign on a high note, the 20th ranked Saint Leo University women's soccer team upended top-ranked Florida Tech with a 1-0 decision on Wednesday evening at University Field. The Lions stay perfect on the season and climb to 7-0, and 1-0 in Sunshine State Conference action, while the No. 1 Panthers swallow their first defeat of the season and drop to 5-1, and 0-1 in conference play.
Earning the game-winning tally on the evening was Dari Alcantara, off of a Cassie Barbaresi corner kick in the 56th minute. Barbaresi sent the kick square into the center of the box, placing the ball on target with Alcantara who sent a header directly between the posts.
The Lions earned their key conference victory thanks to five clutch saves from goalkeeper Laura Carstens. Two additional team saves, and stalwart defensive play from the Green and Gold helped keep the Panthers off the scoreboard as the Lions clinched their second shutout of the season.
Florida Tech led the shot count 15-7 and placed seven shots on frame to Saint Leo's one, but the Lions made their lone shot on frame count in a big way and sealed the deal.
The Saint Leo women's soccer team returns to action on Sunday, September 25, when they take on Alabama-Huntsville in non-conference action. Kickoff against the Chargers is slated for noon at University Field. For the latest news, updates, and information on the nationally-ranked Lions, visit SaintLeoLions.com

Any current Boy Scout or adult who learned the lessons of Scouting as a lad will want this historic 2012 Boy Scouts of America Scout Oath Calendar Medal for this year and to display in all future years. Honoring the three-part pledge that serves as the basis for participation in the Boy Scouts, the obverse of this three-inch medallion depicts the universally known three-finger Scout Sign used by Boy Scouts in the foreground with the stylized words of the Scout Oath behind.
On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.
The Scout Oath instills in every Boy Scout the practice of making ethical and moral choices not just as boys, but throughout the course of their lifetime. Serving as a beautiful and collectible reminder for 2012 and beyond, the durability of the medal will help keep the mission of the Boy Scouts of America in every Scout's – and former Scout's – awareness every day it's displayed.
The three-finger sign represents the three aspects of the Scout Promise:
Duty to God and Country
Duty to Other People
Duty to Self
Scout - the first rank earned as a Boy Scout – cannot be achieved without accurately reciting the Scout Oath, which becomes part of the character of every boy and man who does.
Struck in solid bronze with an antique patina, each Boy Scouts of America 2012 Scout Oath Calendar Medal carries a design that echoes the historic nature of calendar medals and the place Scouting holds in American annals.
Calendar medals date back hundreds of years to a time before printed calendars were practical, and were once a necessity for tracking the year. Today, they are beautiful medals for display on a desk, a mantel, or a place of honor, and highly sought after by collectors of medallic art.
It's the ideal gift to thank valued donors and friends of Scouting and the perfect award for a pack, troop, team or crew. Any Scout, leader, or volunteer will enjoy this enduring memento.
Each three-inch medallion arrives with a museum-quality cherry wood presentation box that contains a velvet-lined medal slot. Simply slide the medal forward and tilt up to be rewarded with an eye-catching display. Your remarkable Boy Scouts of America 2012 Scout Oath Calendar Medal will inspire and delight when silhouetted against the deep red-colored cherry wood grain. Hold this gorgeous medal in hand; feel its weight and heft and you'll understand its tangible and enduring quality.

Garrett Ace 250Very happy with my purchase. Excellent customer service from Regtons and item very quickly dispatched. Would recommend Regtons to any detectorist and will undoubtedly use them for future purchases of metal detecting products and accessories.Mike
Garrett MS-2 Headphonesgreat service yet again , great product , thanks again regtongadge
Not Impressed !!I am really disappointed in the workmanship and finish of this scoop and expected far better for the money. It arrived with razor sharp edges and metal filings all over and was not even cleaned after fabrication. It is creased and out of shape in places with holes blown through the steel plate from excessive heat when welding. Customer service seem dismissive so overall I am not happy with this purchase and wont be returning with any new business.Ainsy

New Garrett headphonesAfter my other 2 sets of original garrett earphones had problems with internal wiring I thought I would try the 'new and improved' headphones. First impressions are that they seem a lot stronger and more compact than the older types. The sound is good although there is only one volume control. Overall a much improved headphone. Pleased with the purchase.Garrett Lads
PurchaseExcellent. Quick and easy site. Delivery fast and on time.top quality keeping the Deus safe while travelling.Glyndwright
Built to last!st time out since delivery and made detecting so much easier. looks and feels indestructible but felt a bit heavy. No problem dragging it behind though. The only downside is the handle i used. Not designed for the scoop and ended up snapping it after about 1 hour because it wasn't designed for the amount of force needed in packed sand, so i've ordered the D handle made by the same company. Brilliant piece of kit. would definitely recommendAlan
Great ValueI have used this on stoney ground through the dry spell we have had and it has done a great job. Excellent value for money.Paula

UF opposes bill that would hold tuition steady
Published: Friday, March 15, 2013 at 5:31 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 15, 2013 at 5:31 p.m.
Officials at the University of Florida have taken a stance against a bill moving through the Legislature that would guarantee in-state students their tuition and fees would not change for four years as long as they remain enrolled full time.
Gov. Rick Scott first promoted the "Finish in Four" concept in his budget proposal in January as a way to encourage students to graduate on time and keep higher education costs predictable for families.
UF administrators say such a program would mean revenue losses for UF of as much as $36 million annually after four years of the program.
According to an analysis of the bill by Board of Governors staff, the State University System stands to lose about $75 million in undergraduate tuition and fee revenue for the next four years if the bill were to pass.
UF spokeswoman Janine Sikes said in order to avoid the hit to UF's revenue, the university would have to increase tuition from one year to the next at a time when it is trying to minimize tuition increases.
"Someone starting in 2015 could pay a markedly higher rate than someone starting in 2014, and someone starting in 2016 could pay a markedly higher rate than in 2015," Sikes said.
Sikes said it's too early to be speculating on the chances of the Legislature budgeting the $15 million that Scott has said he wants to give UF for it to pursue top-10 status in national rankings.
"We're waiting on the House and the Senate to release their budgets," she said.
Two other bills affecting higher education were approved this week by the state Senate Education Committee.
One of the bills outlines criteria for universities to achieve pre-eminence status. Pre-eminence among Florida's universities was a hot topic during last year's legislative session, with a bill granting pre-eminent universities broader tuition-setting power passing through the Legislature before being vetoed by Scott.
This year's language in SB 1720 doesn't grant universities more control over tuition. The highest ranking university — most likely UF — would establish an online arm that would lead the state's distance-learning push.
"We are optimistic, particularly in terms of the pre-eminence bill," Sikes said. "We are very much in favor of the concept."
Sikes said should UF be granted the top rank of pre-eminence, UF would welcome the charge to create an online arm, as it likely would come tied with additional funding that would allow the university to recruit top-notch faculty.
"That would move us in the right direction in terms of class sizes and research," she said.
Another bill approved by the committee would repeal a 2011 law that requires incoming college freshmen to fill out the Federal Application for Free Student Aid in order to get their Bright Future scholarships.

THE number of passengers travelling from the East of England into London for work is set to rise by almost 50 per cent in the next 20 years.
Fresh figures from Network Rail, which owns the line, show the number of people using the line at peak times is set jump by 49 per cent by 2031, from 16,500 to 24,600.
Network Rail now plans to invest £2.2billion in order to boost capacity and make trains more reliable for commuters.
It is the largest investment since the Victorian era.
The company's business plan for the line, which outlines proposed work between 2014 and 2019, has been submitted to the Office of Rail Regulation, which will take a final decision in October.
The proposed changes include replacing the track between London Liverpool Street and Norwich as well as replacing overhead power lines between Liverpool Street and Chelmsford.
Network Rail is also proposing to build a second station in Chelmsford, at Beaulieu Park.

She thought I had turned into a redneck cause I spent all my time outside at the grill or smoker. I was cooking outdoors 3-5 times a week. Nothing wrong with that is there? I must have been doing something right cause the neighbors were always hollering over the fence asking if I had enough for company.

UNH Writers Series Presents Tom Haines

The UNH Writers Series presents Tom Haines, assistant professor of journalism and Society of American Travel Writers Travel Journalist of the Year (2003, 2005) Thursday, Feb. 9 at 5 p.m. in MUB Theater 1.
During two decades as a journalist, Haines reported in more than 40 countries on five continents on topics ranging from coal to cricket, art to revolution. As a staff writer at The Boston Globe, he was three times named Travel Journalist of the Year in North America, and his stories were anthologized in "The Best American Travel Writing" and elsewhere. Read an excerpt of Haines' writing below.
Adventures in Transition Nation
SHANGHAI -- Stand on the concrete promenade of the Bund, a once-chaotic river wharf at the very center of this city, and spin: The horizon towers for 360 degrees. Neon streaks in blue, red, orange, and green. Silver apartment buildings merge at the edge of sight. Turn after turn, the fantasy of the Oriental Pearl Tower and the certainty of the 88-story Jinmao Tower punctuate new Pudong, a district sprung from swamp and farmland.
Tom Haines, Photo by Perry Smith, UNH Photographic Services.
If the goal were simply reinventing the physical face of a place, then the game in Shanghai has been won: In the blur of a dozen years, hundreds of acres of low, lane-linked neighborhoods have surrendered to skyscrapers. So many people in this city of 18 million have scrambled from their torn-down homes and traditions into dizzying new terrain of 2,000 towers and more. Individual lives react again as Shanghai leads China's charge from closed communism toward free-market modernity, stopping who knows where. Politicians and planners cite statistics and strategies to debate whether Shanghai, and China behind it, will conquer or crash.
It is better to enter this place, senses alert, at street level: There lurk subtler signs of progress and peril.
Nearly lost, less than a mile south of the Bund on an open riverside lot littered with bricks and timber of tumbled homes, stands a solitary three-story building. A windbreaker hangs from a clothesline outside a window, and a shaking staircase leads to a door. When he answers a knock, Lu Wai Ming opens it only a few inches. Soon the thin man with thick black hair steps over the threshold and points at four white sheets of paper posted on the outside of the door. The typed Chinese characters announce repeated warnings of eviction from Shanghai Qili Moving Co., Ltd. At the bottom of one page, Lu penned a response in blue ink: "Do you think you are doing moving work? What kind of flag are you holding? What, exactly, are you doing?"
The UNH Writers Series is made possible through the support of the MacArthur/Simic and Edmund G. Miller Funds. All events are free and open to the public. For more information call 862-1313.

It's been a while since I've been to Cincy. I'll probably think of some other questions later on. Thanks in advance!
Are there many cheap hotels located near the stadium?
How much would the parking cost? (I'll rephrase this to: Where is the best parking?)
What hours is the Reds Hall of Fame open?
What times are the stadium tours available?

I've been doing a lot of vulnerability and penetration testing for a customer who wants to see various simulated attacks and possible outcomes. I've been a penetration tester going on 10 years, and it is easily the most enjoyable task I can be asked to perform. Breaking in is fun -- and far easier to pull off when you use one of the many handy vulnerability-testing tools available today.
Overall, breaking in to a company isn't that hard once you know what you're doing. I've yet to find a company with perfect patching or with all the traditional security features from the last 20 years enabled sufficiently. Still, when you're asked to do it on a deadline in a particular way, it can take work. It isn't like the movies where pen testers can guess master passwords in 60 seconds before the bad guys arrive.
[ Master your security with InfoWorld's interactive Security iGuide. | Stay up to date on the latest security developments with InfoWorld's Security Central newsletter. | Get a dose of daily computer security news by following Roger Grimes on Twitter. ]
That's where vulnerability testing tools come in handy. I've long been a fan of the freeware program Cain & Abel. No tool makes it easier to perform ARP poisoning, password sniffing, man-in-the-middle attacks, or digital certificate spoofing. It doesn't get updated as frequently as many other tools, but what it can do is laudable.
Like any budget-minded pen tester, I love free Metasploit. It comes with hundreds of exploits and payloads, and it is available in a GUI and a command-line version. HD Moore, Metasploit's main original contributor, always garners the largest packed rooms at Las Vegas Black Hat conferences.
When it comes to professional penetration testing, using a professional-grade tool is always a smart choice. They simply do more and work better than free tools. Although there are dozens and dozens of professional testing tools, I've messed with only a handful. One day I need to do a thorough test review again.
Among them is Rapid7's commercial offerings, which boast features and functionality you can't get in the free versions of Metasploit. Immunity Canvas is, and has always been, a top vulnerability testing tool. Dave Aitel, Immunity's founder and hacker extraordinaire, and the DailyDave community will always keep Canvas on the top of every penetration tester's wish list.
I recently spent several weeks with the Core Security Technologies Impact tool, which I looked at many years ago for InfoWorld. I was blown away by how much it has improved since the simple days of firing off remote exploits. Today it is a thoroughly interactive tool capable of launching soup-to-nuts attacks against almost any target. What impressed me the most was how well it automated client-side attacks. A typical free tool might create the crucial exploit needed and maybe even a simulated Web link for the "unsuspecting" victim to download from, but Impact does it all with a user-friendly wizard.
The main screen automates every step a manual attacker would make, from information gathering, attacking, and privilege escalation to cleanup. The process takes you almost literally step by step. But if you just want to break in, you begin by choosing the Client Side RPT feature. Clicking on the Client-side Attack and Penetration option starts the wizard.
Impact prompts you for the email addresses to which to send the "malicious" email. You can choose to send a single-exploit attack, a multi-exploit attack, or a phishing email to harvest credentials or information. You can then opt to send your exploit using a Web link or as a file attachment; you can also decide to exploit the email client itself. Using a file attachment often works better in getting by network defense tools.
Next, you select which exploit to send. Impact offers a range of hundreds of premade exploit modules.
After that, you create a subject line and text to send along with the accompanying exploit. The next windows allow you to specify the connect-back method and port. You can select any port, including HTTP and HTTPS. I often go with the latter to better hide malicious code from prying network attack detection tools.
Finally, you select the initial payload actions and wait. By simply ticking a checkmark, I was able to tell Impact to make an agent be persistent (live through a reboot) and to dump the currently logged on user's authentication credentials.
Once the email is sent, it's a matter of waiting for the target victim or victims to receive it. When a victim opens the email and/or attachment, the exploit goes off, takes control of the system, installs the Impact agent, and establishes a remote management channel back to the tester's computer. After that, the sky's the limit.
Using Impact made me yearn for the days when all I did was penetration testing -- man, the hours and hours I could have saved using Impact or a tool like it.
Some people complain about how easy pen testing tools make it to exploit an environment, as if the bad guys are usually wielding a mainstream or commercial tool. I tell critics that the bad guys have their own custom tools, specialized for their type of work. Most penetration testing tools, especially the ones I mentioned here, are made for IT security teams so that we can test our own defenses before the bad guys do. It also lets us demonstrate particular exploits to senior management more easily. The bad guy doesn't need these tools. We do.

Since some people claim that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will be a being with extraordinary powers and that he will therefore be invulnerable to tanks, guns and even the atom bomb, they ignore the various troubles that will probably befall Hazrat Mahdi (as) as described in the hadiths. The fact is, however, that our Prophet (saas) has stated in the hadiths that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will resemble the Prophets in various ways and that, like them, he will have to strive against difficulties. Like the Prophets, Hazrat Mahdi (as) will be slandered, tested by false allegations, various troubles and afflictions, and will confront all the snares set by the unbelievers. Hadith transmitted from our Prophet (saas) state:
Imam Zayn al-Abidin stated:
"OUR QAIM [HAZRAT MAHDI (AS)] WILL RESEMBLE THE MESSENGERS OF ALLAH IN VARIOUS WAYS. HE WILL INDIVIDUALLY RESEMBLE NOAH (AS), ABRAHAM (AS), MOSES (AS), JESUS (AS), JOB (AS) AND MUHAMMAD (SAAS) AND THE OTHER PROPHETS. He will resemble Noah (as) in being long-lived, Abraham (as) in his birth being concealed [at home] and away from the public eye, to Moses (as) in his state of fear [the intensity of dangers directed to Hazrat Mahdi (as); his being face to face to all kinds of danger like murder, plotting, arrest, taking into custody and exile] and his constantly spending his life hiding; to Jesus (as) in people being in conflict about him [some people will say Hazrat Mahdi (as) will come while others will say he will not]; to Job (as) in being delivered to salvation after trouble [Hazrat Mahdi (as) will also suffer many difficulties, diseases and trouble; however just like the Prophet Job (as) he will be saved by Allah's mercy)]; to Muhammad (saas) in his appearing with his sword [our Prophet's (saas) holy relics will be with Hazrat Mahdi (as)]. (Qamal ud-din p. 322, Chapter 31, Hadith no. 3)
Imam Mahdi (as) possesses the FORBEARANCE OF THE PROPHET DAVID (AS) and the PATIENCE OF THE PROPHET JOB (AS). (Kefaayah al-Asar, p. 43)
All the Prophets have been tested with various difficulties, flase accusations and sicknesses. All them have been subjected to the pressure and snares of the deniers. The deniers have sought to kill them, and they have been called "sorceres" and even "mad." When our Prophet (saas) read them the Qur'an, they said that "He is quite mad." (Surat al-Qalam, 51) The Prophet Hud (as) was accused of being "a fool and a liar." (Surat al-A'raf, 66) The Prophet Joseph (as) spent years in prison despite having commited no crime, the Prophet Moses (as) was called "a magician or a madman." (Surat al-Dhariyat, 39) The Prophet Abraham (as) was thrown into the flames by the leading members of his community (Surat al-Anbiya', 68). And as our Prophet (saas) tells us in the hadiths, Hazrat Mahdi (as) will be subjected to difficulties and the snares of the deniers, like all the Prophets. He will struggle against corruption and false accusations and will lead a life full of hardship and troubles.
That is our Prophet's (saas) description of the "Mahdi" in the hadiths. There is absolutely no question of our Lord creating Hazrat Mahdi (as), whom He will appoint as a Qutb al-A'zam, with superhuman characteristics unique to the angels. No such reference appears in any trustowrhty hadith. On the contrary, many hadiths state that Hazrat Mahdi (as) and his followers will have difficult and troubled lives, and that many people will oppose them because they are Muslims and live by the moral values of the Qur'an.

Who knew it would be Oliver Perez and John Maine who would pitch six solid innings in their respective outings and allow only two runs apiece, instead of leaders Johan Santana and Mike Pelfrey? Maine kept the Reds at bay in a 5-4 win last night.
It's the bullpen that's looked a little shaky lately. Usually Fernando Nieve is reliable, but last night he allowed two solo jacks in the eighth inning to spoil a win for Maine. The Mets were saved by a solo shot by Rod Barajas, his seventh in 18 hits. The night before it was Manny Acosta who allowed a walk-off home run to Laynce Nix. Perez wouldn't have gotten the win anyway, but he still was more effective than Santana and Pelfrey combined. Neither of them made it past the fourth inning in their starts.
It's good to see that when two starters falter, two more pick up the team. Even though Perez's outing didn't result in a win, it still instilled some confidence in him. Hopefully, he can build on that in his next start.
Jon Niese tries to follow suit as he finished up the series with the Reds today at 12:35 p.m.
