I'm a very laid back guy but I take my playing seriously. music is my life and there's nothing I enjoy sharing and expressing more. I learned to love playing guitar when I was 12 from the coolest guitar teacher ever. he had a vibe that i gravitated toward and encouraged me in just the right ways to get me believing in myself. I try to encourage my students the same way. music should be fun above all and sculpt my lessons to each students individual needs so that they are better equipped to succeed.

About Pete A.Close
View Full Profile
Blues guitar was my first true electric guitar obsession. It continues to be a huge part of my playing today. Having a strong blues foundation is something that any serious guitar player should have. Just about every music genre we hear today can be traced back to blues roots. I teach anything and everything about blues guitar playing. The blues method and approach I use gets musicians at any level seeing significant results in a short amount of time.
About Pete
In 2011, I successfully obtained my master's degree in Jazz Studies from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. The master's program was an intense submersion in music performance that shaped me into the musician that I am today. I was lucky to study with Don Glanden, Mike Kennedy, and Kevin Hanson.
I am also well versed in computer recording software and DAWs. I teach students how to use software programs such as Logic and Reason as well as notation software like Sibelius and Finale. With some basic training in these programs, I can teach a student how to effectively record and produce professional quality recordings so that a student can write, record, and produce their own music.
*** Lesson Details ***
Because I've studied with some legendary teachers who have taught some legendary students (like John Mayer), I'm able to pass on to my students the same knowledge that these incredible teachers passed on to me. I guarantee that I will be unlike any guitar teacher that you've had before. Along with instrumental training, I offer extensive lessons in music theory and ear training. My family is full of educators and I've experienced the teacher-student relationship from a young age. I am fully committed to developing lesson plans based on the route that a student wants to take, whether it's just learning the basics and playing along to your favorite songs or engaging in serious study and preparing for college auditions. I am available to teach at any location within the Philadelphia area.
*** Stylistic Focus ***
I specialize in jazz and blues. At Berklee, I was able to take instrumental labs that spent an entire semester focusing on the playing style of certain guitarists. I've taken the Wes Montgomery lab, the Pat Martino lab, the Jimi Hendrix lab, the John Scofield lab, and the Stevie Ray Vaughan lab.

About Scott B.Close
Blues is an essential form to internalize for anyone hoping to develop a foundation of improvisation to build from on the guitar. From the masters like BB King and Stevie Ray to modern players like Derek Trucks and Joe Bonamassa, we will cover it all.
For those interested we can also delve into the country blues pioneers such as Robert Johnson, Skip James and Mississippi John Hurt.
About Scott
--Hudson Valley Almanac Weekly
"a force to be reckoned with... sophisticated chord voicings, complex fingerpicking patterns, and a flurry of blues, jazz, and folk-inflected riffs performed with a ringing acoustic tone and an undeniable rhythmic drive."
Scott is an internationally touring guitarist and songwriter based in Philadelphia. In addition to his work as an in-demand sideman for various artists and bands around the country, Scott is also an accomplished bandleader and composer with four acclaimed releases under his belt over the last ten years.
As a guitarist, Scott brings a modern, technical approach to traditional American styles - jazz, bluegrass, country blues, western swing and chick'n pick'n country guitar - but as a songwriter, he gravi
Scott's guitar playing and songwriting has landed him features from American Songwriter, CMT, and more. He holds a BFA in Studio/Composition, with a minor in Jazz Performance, from SUNY Purchase in Purchase, NY.
Scott is currently on faculty in the Music Industry department at Rowan University in Glassboro, NJ.
*** Lesson Details ***
When studying with Scott, students can expect a comfortable and fun atmosphere that promotes experimentation and positive reinforcement. Employing a curriculum that is equal parts formal technique and informal playing of the student's favorite music, Scott makes every lesson engaging and exciting for his students.
After 3 to 6 months studying with Scott, beginners should expect to be able to play many of their favorite songs, have a firm grasp on basic scales, chords, theory and sight reading, and can even begin writing their own songs and improvising solos!
If you're already an intermediate/advanced player, Scott will push you to find your unique voice on the guitar and tap into advanced techniques and approaches that will help you fully realize all that the guitar has to offer.
Lessons are tailored to each individual student's particular interests and abilities. Wherever you want to take your guitar playing, Scott will get you there and beyond!

About Lenny R.Close
I have spent the past 12 years of my life dedicated to the guitar. While obtaining my Bachelor's degree in Guitar performance at Oberlin Conservatory I was employed by the conservatory's secondary lessons department. This studio featured a diverse mix of college students, adults, and children. In addition I am Suzuki method certified and I was a summer instructor at the Amherst School of Guitar in Buffalo, NY. I have experience working with children from as young as 5 to as old as 65.
About Lenny
While studying with me we will work on many facets of music including technique, sight reading, critical listening, music theory, improvisation, and how to apply these skills to a piece of music to truly express yourself. My goal is to instill a deep understanding of music to my students while letting their individual sensibilities show.
STYLES: I can teach all styles of American music (i.e Rock, Blues, Country, Jazz, R&B etc.) as well as classical and fingerstyle.
I have a degree in classical
I have experience playing in many different bands in many styles including: Rock, Reggae, African, Blues, and Jazz groups.
SUZUKI METHOD: I am trained and certified in the Suzuki Guitar Method and spent 3 years teaching Suzuki in studio with children as young as 5. This involves a significant parent-teacher-student commitment and regularly yields impressive results.
ON TALENT: I agree with Shin-ichi Suzuki that talent is irrelevant and a myth. I believe that the potential of all my students are the same but they come to me with various starting skills levels and all learn at a very different pace. I believe that the myth of "talent" really just means that the individual has had a long exposure to music. This is why I emphasize critical listening in my lessons. If you have a large knowledge of music and sounds in your head it makes it easier to make connections and better assess your ideas.

By Jonathan Allen
NEW YORK (Reuters) - New York City will give restaurants and food outlets a three-month grace period before imposing fines for serving the large sugary drinks that will be banned, city officials said on Tuesday.
The board of the city's Department of Health passed the ban, the first of its kind in the nation, in September, arguing that excessive soda drinking was a significant cause of obesity and other health problems.
Under the new rules, most restaurants and food outlets will not be allowed to serve non-alcoholic, sugar-sweetened drinks in cups larger than 16 oz, the equivalent of a "small" drink at McDonald's restaurants. Certain groceries and stores that are regulated by the state rather than the city are exempt.
Although the ban takes effect in March, violators will be notified but not fined for the first three months. From June onward, violators will be subject to a $200 fine.
Similar grace periods were used in introducing other large-scale health initiatives that have been a hallmark of Mayor Michael Bloomberg's administration, such as a requirement that certain restaurants include calorie counts against items on their menus, officials said.
"The Health Department will begin enforcing the portion cap rule when it goes into effect on March 12th, but it will not seek fines for non-compliance for the first three months," Mark Muschenheim, a lawyer for the city, said in a statement.
The American Beverage Association and other business and trade associations and unions have gone to court over the ban, saying the Department of Health does not have the authority to pass such regulations under the city's charter.
The lawsuit argues that the ban robs consumers of a right to choose, and that it will harm the city's small businesses - sugary drinks are cheap to make but are sold at a relatively high mark-up.
A hearing is set for next Wednesday to decide whether the case should proceed.

What is the most secure ftp daemon available for Windows 2000?
What do you mean by secure? Secure as in vulnerabilities or secure as in the ease of the ability to lock the anonymous account down?
If you are talking about vulnerabilities, there aren't too many ftp servers that haven't been plagued by vulnerabilities for 2000. If nothing else, I'd probably go with Microsoft's if you are already subscribed to their bulletin list and are used to patching.

Fort Dorchester's football uniforms might have been best described as stealth in Friday night's game against rival Summerville. The Patriots unveiled special uniforms for the Region 8-AAAA showdown that included black helmets, black camouflage pants and black jerseys with dark blue numbers and lettering. The numbers were so hard to detect that the Fort PA announcer couldn't tell most of the Patriots players apart — even with a program.
But in the end, the only number that mattered was 13. The Green Wave's 24-7 victory in front of about 7,000 fans at Bagwell Stadium was its 13th straight triumph over the Patriots dating back to 2001. The Green Wave leads the all-time series, 21-2.
Summerville upped its record to 5-2, including 1-0 in the region. Coach John McKissick, football's all-time winningest coach, picked up his 607th career victory. Fort Dorchester fell to 4-3, 0-1.
"It's always good to get a region win, a win over a rival like this," McKissick said. "We got really good play from our defense. They've done that all year, except for a couple of games. I'm thankful to have this win."
Fort Dorchester started well. Quarterback Kobe Garrett ripped off a 48-yard run on the first drive of the game to set up Nahshon Cyrus' 2-yard touchdown run.
But Summerville rallied to take a 10-7 lead at halftime despite Garrett's 171 total yards in the first half. Jacerie Ponder, the Green Wave's leading rusher, missed last week's game against Stratford, but was ready to run Friday night. He broke off a 36-yard touchdown run in the first quarter to tie it at 7.
Fort Dorchester had its chances. The Patriots had a 98-yard drive that ended on downs at the Summerville 1. The Green Wave moved the ball downfield and took a 10-7 lead when David Kennedy kicked a 45-yard field goal.
The Patriots again had the ball at the Green Wave 1 late in the first half, but Bryant's fade pass was intercepted in the end zone with 5 seconds left on the clock.
The Patriots' red zone — and turnover — woes continued in the third quarter. The Patriots had first and goal, but on third down, Summerville's Chad Wood stripped the ball from a running back and outraced everybody for a 95-yard touchdown return with 8:47 left in the third quarter. That pushed the Green Wave's lead to 17-7.
The Green Wave came right back with another score, converting another turnover into six points. Ponder capped the drive with his second TD of the night, a 5-yard run to give the Green Wave a 24-7 lead.
The three turnovers in three straight possessions left Fort Dorchester coach Steve LaPrad perplexed.
"I don't know what to say," LaPrad said. "It's amazing. We haven't done that all year, and then we do it tonight. We run up and down the field all night, have a good game plan and then turn the ball over. That five minutes, everything that could go wrong did go wrong."
LaPrad, a longtime assistant coach at Summerville, remained winless against his old team since he took over at Fort Dorchester in 2003.
"They're a good football team, but it's like a hex," LaPrad said. "I just don't know."

Sydney, May 16, 2007
The official hymn for World Youth Day in 2008 has just been chosen. "Receive the Power" is the title of the official hymn for the celebration of the 23rd World Youth Day in Sydney. The song was written by young Australian composer Guy Sebastian. "We were looking for a hymn which would be involving and inspiring", WYD 2008 co-ordinator Bishop Anthony Fisher OP explained.
"Above all it had to be a song which would fill the young participants with enthusiasm and capture the essence of the World Youth Day theme chosen by the Pope: You will receive the power of the Holy Spirit which will descend upon you and you will be my witnesses. Guy's song meets with all these requisites: it inspires the youth of the world to accept Jesus' call to follow him to the ends of the earth as his witnesses."
Receive the Power was chosen after a selection process involving over 120 pieces. The Pontifical Council for the Laity, which is involved in preparations for WYD on the part of the Holy See, is in agreement with the choice of the hymn. "It combines the necessary musical and thematic elements as well as being easy to sing for people of different languages. We are convinced that Receive the Power WYD hymn will be played and sung by young Catholics everywhere on the occasion of World Youth Day and from then on", the Bishop said.
Australian composer singer Guy Sebastian made a name for himself in 2003, when he started composing music for his parish at the age of thirteen. In 2005, Guy was nominated World Vision Ambassador and went to Uganda to film a documentary on the difficulties people face there due to poverty and civil war. He has also written numerous songs for Australian singers.

4 Winters and still going!

Ive had these snowshoes for 4 years now and they are still in good shape.
The bindings fit and are fast to attach. Good flotation for someone my size (6'8 tall and 280 lbs).

Crescent Moon 17 Gold Expedition
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is my first ever snowshoe and I am really happy with how easy it is to setup the bindings and how secure it feels on my boots. Once on the crampons bite in very well for a nice slide free step. Im working in Yellowstone National Park all winter and will put these snowshoes through there paces!
Im also impressed with Backcountry.com's fast shipping.
crescent moon 17 gold expedition
I will give this snowshoe a 5 star rating. I am impressed with the binding and overall quality of this product. It is also worth mentioning that they are made in the United States and they have a life time warranty. I like the way they track in the snow and I can slip them off or on very easily with this binding. I own several pairs of winter boots and they quickly adjust to any boot I happen to be wearing at the time. I have always used wooden snowshoes but I have to say that these are more comfortable and they hold me up in deep snow as well as my 10x56 inch shoes.

recruiting standouts. In all, there are 20 new faces on the 2013 squad, including 15 freshmen
and five junior college transfers.
• It's A Little Drafty in Here
A number of current Gauchos have passed up opportunities to play professionally in
order to suit up at UCSB. Starting first baseman Tyler Kuresa was an 11th rd. selection of
the Minnesota Twins in 2010, while senior right hander Jared Wilson was taken in the 35th
rd. by the Twins in 2012. Three current freshmen were also selected in 2012, including OF
Andrew Calica (17th rd., CLE), SS Devon Gradford (34th. rd, OAK), and P Connor Baits
(23rd rd., NYM).
• Special K's
Andrew Checketts quickly made his stamp on the UCSB pitching staff in 2012, leading
the team to a school-record in strikeouts for a single season, with both Andrew Vasquez
(104) and Matt Vedo (112, drafted by SEA, 24th rd.) exceeding 100 punchouts apiece.
As a squad, the Gauchos compiled 451 strikeouts, which bested the previous record of
428 set in 1997. Only 215 of those strikeouts are returning, but with several young flamethrowers,
expect the Gauchos to rack up the K's once again.
• Sensational Skipper
Despite a .500 record in his first season, few could deny the progress shown by UCSB
in their first season under Andrew Checketts. Well the word is out. Andrew Checketts
picked up several honors over the offseason, including being named a "Coach on the Rise"
by Perfect Game and one of the "Top 10 Head Coaches Under 40" by Baseball America.
• American Boys
Following their stellar 2012 seasons, a pair of Gauchos were selected as Preseason All-
Americans. In December, sophomore lefty Andrew Vasquez was named to the Second
Team by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association after recording a 1.93 ERA
as a freshman, the fourth best full-season ERA in school history. Junior SS Brandon Trinkwon
was named to the Baseball America Second-Team after hitting .347 as a sophomore
and starting the Cape Cod League All-Star Game. Brandon was also noted as the top
defensive infielder in college baseball.
• Gauchos Over the Air
UCSB Athletics and the Santa Barbara News Press radio will broadcast a vast majority of
UCSB Baseball's games this season, with 30 games being carried over the air by AM 1290
and online through UCSBgauchos.com and another 17 games airing exclusively online.

Posted on 05/24/2005 1:42:28 PM PDT by CHARLITE
Warning: This article contains graphic descriptions that may be difficult for some readers.
A crowd of people gathered on Capitol Hill last Thursday to hear experts* in obscenity law and sexual crimes speak in recognition of Victims of Pornography Month.
What they said in that room should be heard by every American. (It just so happens that you can download and listen to the presentations, including one by CWAs chief counsel, Jan LaRue, on our Web site by clicking here.)
First, if you arent convinced yet that we, as a society, should crack down on pornography, consider some of the facts presented at the summit.
Where should we start? Maybe with this statement from Phil Burress, president of Citizens for Community Values in Cincinnati, Ohio: Ive never met a police officer yet who investigated a pedophile that did not find pornography. Every one of them said pornography is always on the scene.
Or perhaps that the National Center for Missing and Exploited Childrens (NCMCs) Cyber Tip Line (http://www.cybertipline.com/) collected about 1,500 reports of possible child pornography being transmitted online in a seven-day period earlier this month (and 293,000 reports since 1998), according to Marsha Gilmer-Tullis, Director of the Family Advocacy Division at NCMC. They received 35 reports of adults trying to meet and greet children in chat rooms that same week.
Or, we could also consider facts presented by Dr. Jeffrey Satinover, a psychiatrist, professor at Princeton University and researcher at the University of Nice, that the sexual slavery trade is the third-largest source of funds for organized crime, right behind drugs and arms, and that pornography drives that trade.
Plus, Satinover mentioned studies showing that brain activity associated with craving pornography is identical to any other behavioral or chemical addictions. In fact, some have pointed out that pornography is as addictive as cocaine, but even harder to overcome due to the images burned into the users mind. It is not an art form, he said. No one gets addicted to The Washington Post. No one gets addicted to James Joyce [author of Ulysses, a book with some erotic scenes].
Satinover also had the courage to point out the motivation behind the porn industry: Its purpose is not to entertain. Its purpose, he said, is to lead the viewer to achieve arousal and orgasm as quickly and frequently as possible. Theres a financial interest the more the buyer gets aroused by pornography and achieves orgasm, the more he will purchase. Comparing the purchasing frequency of mainstream movies and pornographic ones makes that clear.
When the movies, magazines and Web sites just arent cutting it anymore, the user moves to the final stage: acting out. Rep. Katherine Harris (R-Florida) read the following quote from serial rapist Ted Bundy, made one day before his 1989 execution:
The purveyors of pornography repeatedly challenge us to prove that pornography causes violent crime, said Rep. Harris. I challenge them to prove that it does not.
Likewise, John Richter, the Acting Assistant Attorney General of the U.S. Department of Justice Criminal Division, said, Because obscene material is so accessible, many may fail to realize that availability does not equate to legality.
Concerned Women for America (CWA) Chief Counsel Jan LaRue wrote an excellent, full-scale paper on this topic, Hard-Core Harm.
So, what can you, as a citizen, do with the information these knowledgeable presenters gave? Here are several ideas:
Start with your own home. Supervise your children on the Internet, and teach them how to safely use it. Read CWAs brochure, 14 Ways You Can Protect Your Children Online, for help. Watch out for peer-to-peer file-sharing sites like Kazaa and Morpheus, as they are virtually unregulated children can easily access pornographic files and even give away your households personal information. If you or your spouse is struggling with addiction, there is help (see http://www.victimsofpornography.org/ for a start).
Be aware of what or who is in your neighborhood. Check with local law enforcement to see if it maintains a sex offenders registry. Use the registry to find out if any convicted sex offenders live in your neighborhood. If your state doesnt have one, lobby your officials to make this information public.
Encourage your local officials to prosecute obscenity. If juries never get the opportunity to set community standards, then pornographers will set them. In cities where prosecutors have gone after pornographic shops and other sexually oriented businesses, all types of crimes have dropped. Local law enforcement should be enthusiastic about cleaning up communities in this way.
Encourage your local and national representatives to make laws to protect Americans from obscenity.
Sign up for e-mail alerts from groups like CWA that are fighting pornography. Well keep you informed as to how you can act on the issue. Sign up at www.cwfa.org.
Vote! Watch how your officials and representatives are voting, acting and responding to your requests regarding obscenity. Register to vote, and encourage your friends and family to register as well!
Educate others. One voice can start a movement! Join an organized grassroots organization like CWA well be happy to tell you how you can become active at the state level (phone: 800-964-2203). Encourage your friends to join e-mail lists, or form one of your own to pass around vital information. Organize events in your community and bring in experts like the ones at this presentation.
Contribute to hard-working groups like CWA, CCV and others. We are dependent upon generous giving from people like you.
John Richter ended his remarks by asking for continuing support of American citizens:
We arent backing down to the purveyors of obscenity we do not fight these battles alone. We know that folks like you here today decent, honest Americans support us. And it is my last privilege today to ask for your continued support as we continue to move forward. I want you to think of our team as I think of them: As those men and women, at Justice, who seek justice, by doing justice, for those who deserve justice.
*Among the presenters were Concerned Women for America (CWA) Chief Counsel Jan LaRue; Citizens for Community Values President Phil Burress; Reps. Katherine Harris (R-Florida), Mike Pence (R-Indiana) and Joe Pitts (R-Pennsylvania); Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kansas); Acting Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division of the U.S. Department of Justice, John Richter; Marsha Gilmer-Tullis, Director of the Family Advocacy Division at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children; Focus on the Family Media and Sexuality Analyst Daniel Weiss; Florida Deputy Attorney General George LeMieux; and Dr. Jeffrey Satinover, a psychiatrist, professor at Princeton University and researcher at the University of Nice.

A town with a lot of sex businesses will likely have a dirty police force.
So a drive to run them out probably means fed up homeowners elected an honest mayor.
My friends and I have never raped anyone and have often fantasized about many women.
He can rent it. Buy it. Download it. Make it. Sell it.
Others can add their observations as well.
It probably starts a long way before porn.
They don't make 'em like Keisha or Vanessa anymore...
Ding. Ding. Ding. You get the "booby prize" for being correct.
Give me Tommy and Pamela!
Pornography does not cause violent crime any more than guns kill people.
Some people use porn as an excuse for their crimes the same way some people blame their crimes on alcohol.
I've found tons of hardcore porn at meth labs. OTH those maggots have been known to sexually abuse their children in some cases.
I too enjoy watching damaged, molested girls coked or tweaked out of their minds getting nailed for drug money. The trick is, focus on the implants. If you look at their eyes too much, you can see just how high they really are. That just kills the moment.
Well, unlike the previous thread, at least nobody is claiming that a guy pleasuring himself while watching hetero porn is committing a homosexual act.
I've known what to do about porn since I was about 12, but thanks anyway!
I think a distinction should be made between pornography and child pornography. When the officer said every pedophile had porn I wonder if it was child pornography. That's different, and sick.
I've never meat a police officer yet who investigated a homicide that did not find air on the scene.
Silly generalizations make the rest of the argument unworthy of my time.
Nanny-stater ping.
I think the logic here is that, since all pedophiles look at porn, anybody who looks at porn is a potential pedophile.
And since Ted Bundy looked at porn, everybody who looks at porn is a potential serial killer.
Do I have that right?
Since you can't prove a negative, it appears the nanny-staters are a bit illogical...

Right before Sony had to eat humble pie when the PS3′s launch cost them billions and market dominance, they were criticized for being arrogant and cocky. Now they're seen as a much more likeable and respectable company that doesn't tell people to get another job.
Clearly not having learned anything from Sony's past, Microsoft is now playing the villain.
Is that Kaz as Superman?
it isnt as good because its better
Microsoft has no games left, no blu-ray, inferior Netflix, and a subscription-based service. Sony is opposite to each of those things.
PS3 isn't as good, no...it's better.
Ah this just sounds like Microsoft playing the FOX News game of declaring something as true without backing it up with facts.
I would like to see the face of Yusuf Mehdi when he realizes that as he was talking nonsense all of the lifeboats left.
Yea it's better at being horrible! JK although PS exclusives are mostly overrated and most do not look interesting at all as well as xbox's
I hope when MS announces their new platform, Sony just wishes them luck, like they did with the Wii U. It's so much classier.
No its because the PS3 is the better gaming console.
Microsoft is always like that,they never take their lumps like a gentleman.
Instead they bash and sabotage just like how they made that scroogle add when Google is kicking their cheep windows phone ass, or when apple came out with the iPhone.
They find all kind of horrible crap to say about how bad iPhone was, then they copied the siri app lol i hate that company no offense to Xbox owners, the 360 isn't a bad system its just Microsoft i cant stand there greedy snobby cunt.
I think Microsoft is loosing they're grip of reality. They loosing battle on every front from phones to operating systems. Except for office 2010 great software btw.
In other words Microsoft is run by teenagers with bold heads.
I think they are right. As entertainment console, 360 has the edge but when it comes to GAMING console, you know, the reason I bought both 360 and PS3, I find Playstation 3 much... MUCH better.
Sony doesnt showcase the PS3's superior sound output either, imho. True digital optic 7.1 surround sound only on the PS3.
The Myans predicted the end of the world December 26, 2012 but with calendar adjustments it's actually February 20, 2013; and they were talking about the end of a certain type fanboy's world.
Let the apoc4ypse begin.
The Mayans didn't see anything coming. Not even the spanish!
Heres my honest opinion as someone who loves both my Xbox 360 and my PS3 for entertainment.
Forget the PR stuff as both of em are taking shots at each other.
If you are strictly talking physical entertaimnent SONY wins handsdown for the Blu-ray. Plus I've always been a huge fan of the music player. Throw a CD in and nobody is touching that Earth Screen saver.
If you are talking in the digital space then MS wins handsdown. The content on Live is like 3 times as much. Especially if you are a fan over music, when Xbox music, Last FM, and I heart radio are all great. But when it comes to sheer entertainment apps..My god. It's not even a contest.
Overall, it's all in what you like.
I love the internet now through smart glass, Youtube, The news stations, HBO GO, Gamespot and IGN TV, NBA through Live.
I love the NFL Pass, the 3D movie selection, the alternate way to view my Netflix menu, and I honestly used to be obsessed with the PSN Store.
At the end of the day, it honestly depends on what your system of preference is. If your on Xbox Live every day you tend to grab more content from there and vice versa for the PS3.
But, I'd say if you didn't pay for alot of Blu-Ray movies then MS has a point.
But, I couldn't live without either one.
Next gen will be interesting though.
the Ps3 doesn't have any shooters that have such lighting and animations like halo4, or even as remotely as top selling, and that's a fact! NOTHING!
and the last of us and two souls are coming in way too late, and they look dated anyways. by the time these games come out preorders for new hardware will made, and then they will both be conflicting with their sales.
and for the record the 360 had a way better launch than the vita!!
I just want a new GAME console. I have a computer/iPad/even a stereo for radio to have my entertainment. On a GAME console I want to play games. So MS Just call it XMediaBox and STFU.
It streams Netflix in 1080p. It outputs sound in 7.1 optical and HDMI. It plays Blu-ray movies.
But Sony doesn't constantly tout that. They seem to focus more on gaming overall, whereas Microsoft is really heavy on the "entertainment" part. I think they're using the Xbox to infiltrate different markets with minimal focus on gaming.
Wow, look at all those disagrees. This is really hurting the 360 fanboys in ways I have never seen before. Why? It's just another console.
I'll be forwarding this story to all my gaming friends who bought 360s, then got rid of them in favor of PS3s. Apparently they aren't included in "everybody".
lol @ all the above disagrees from the 360 fans. Your cover is blown, and I never again want to read any of you claiming that N4G is dominated by PS3 fans. Too funny.
MS really does look desperate with that quote, no matter who in the company said it.
Good times.
People say that n4g is full of Sony fanboys. Look at this shit. This article is a joke. How is the 360 better? When it comes down to which system is better you have to look at the exclusives because that is the only thing that makes the difference. The exclusives on PS3 are far better and there are far more than on the 360. Yet when people point this fact out they get more disagrees than agrees. How many AAA exclusives will the 360 have this year?? I haven't heard of a single one. It's all about kinect and casual play on the 360 for the past two years.
N4G is full of Sony Fanboys???? Look at all the disagrees from 360 fanboys! Far more 360 fans on this site. I don't want Anyone claim that this site is full of sony fanboys after this.
This is a troll article and the person that chose to make this the headline is a completely POS. Don't you idiots get tired of voicing the same tired opinions about your favorite console? NOBODY cares what you think about 360 or ps3. You can sit there and say "but but psn is free and blah blah."
yeah? good for you. I'm still going to play and enjoy my xbox AND my ps3. GROW UP!
Like gribble, mystic and ares said this news really proves how much of a PS3 fanboy driven site this is.
Even perfectly sane and truthfull comments get almost 50/50 ratio for agrees.
Look at patterson's and blitz's comment's disagrees. Am I seeing things or did they actually get way more disagrees?
also @ evil
"Forget the PR stuff as both of em are taking shots at each other"
So here we are once again trying hard to make all companies look the same. If Sony lies 2 times and MS lies 10 times then MS is 5 times bigger idiot. You simply cannot run with this "oh they both do it" attitude and expect it to stick. That's BS and you do it ONLY because MS is the one with the most cheap shots. We would never hear the end of it if it was Sony doing it.
@ all the PS3 trolls above, saying "I don't want to hear this is a PS3 fanboy and PS3 ego-petting haven", Yes it is. Did you ever for one second think that these disagrees could have come from anyone who thinks trolls are a joke. Any comment with that number of disagrees is just plain fanboy propaganda, or someone spouting slogans. Every comment that happen to was fanboy garbage plain and simple. This does not "PROVE" anything like what you're claiming, it just proves not everyone wants to hear that trash. The fact they had as many agree's is much more telling.
@Ares84HU Seriously are you even looking at the other comments? There are a staggering number of sony fanboys who misinterpret Microsoft's statement as "xbox is better than ps3".
Lol almost everyone that posted here should be voted down for being immature.
Really guys.. You are defending your console like you're getting paid for it.
Both consoles have their flaws but you guys are even disagreeing with cold hard facts just to defend your console.
Just calm ur tits, they're insulting your console, not your mom
Also, for all you saying: just wait untill the 20th
We don't really know what Sony is announcing on the 20 February, but it seems highly likely that it'll announcement its next-gen PS3 successor, presumed to be called the PS4
Nothing is sure yet though.
No sony isnt as good as an entertainment console its a better GAMES console though. Sont doesnt care about Hulu and Netflix, it give consumers that as they want them but it gives gamers games first and foremost. The fact MS said this just shows they are completely out of touch with gamers. Even 360 owners cannot deny this. We buy consoles for games first and foremost and if you dont then your just silly as theres a lot cheaper ways to get the same content your 360 offers you and no live needed to use it!
And here comes the pr bullcrap. It took 4 years for them to stop bashing each other this gen. Now they're back at it. Obviously, MS is feeling threatened by all the buzz that Sony has been getting involving their feb 20th conference.
the bluray player alone makes it better, and u not having to pay to use the same features the 360 has makes it better.the 360 is good but he ps3 is just better. I have them both its my opinion.u can see it in my profile pick.
The majority of games today (moins PC) are peer-to-peer rather than dedicated servers; therefore, your point is invalid.
@CryofSilence: PSN servers do suck when it comes to download speeds for many people. I have a 30+ download speed and its practically a snail's pace for me no matter if I only have the PS hooked up to my cable modem. Not sure if it has to do with launch PS3 (a friend had similar problems with his), some hardware issue, or simply PSN itself.
My PC can download infinitely faster, my 360 the same, and even my cell phone on wifi can download faster than PS3 hooked up to the modem. It doesn't matter what PSN settings are, its just pathetically bad for me. Granted I download most things over night on it fine but when I bought DC Universe to play with console friends... omg that sucked.
If for some reason download speeds weren't so bad for me I probably wouldn't think so poorly about PSN though as I do like it being free, PS+, and the overall feel of the store. The new look though blows the old out of the water however download speeds are still terrible for me. I just hope when I get a PS4 it was a hardware problem.
I don't think that his point is invalid. Many games I played had match making issues on PS3. That's not peer to peer, that are server issues.
Yes, their download servers are pretty slow, but I said games and the act of gaming, not downloading.
Ps 3 has crap servers bwhahha. Mag played better than most games on Xbox, Xbox would cripple if u put 128 people in one area and dropped a air strike on them. And why is dust514 a exclusive and the only games that are inferior are the games that bum Xbox call of duty then again I hardly note on my console but its the game most people bitch about been laggy.. Ive had some great times on Xbox live but to say this is too much of a laugh, bwhahha, developers make.a server not Sony unless it's a exclusive.
Crap servers? Right...
And I suppose the ones you pay for on the 360 are any better?
1) PSN doesn't have the same features.
2) You don't have to tell us that your opinion is your opinion.
@Kratos_Kills: You mean like when FF13 was announced as a multiplat so you all went nuts when FF13 VS was announced as an exclusive? Or do you mean like when PSN went down for a month and as compensation for not encrypting our credit card information we got a couple cheapo games? Or do you mean like when Bioshock finally came to ps3 a year later? and on and on and on...
don't be so immature man. who cares how people react to news? i can't think of anything less interesting. plus, it makes you sound like a hypocrite.
@CryofSilence. The only reason I mentioned psn servers dl speeds was you were you responding to a more general (trollish) comment about servers in general. That and the flamebait article was actually about multimedia and not gaming side of consoles so dl speeds are more important as it does make a differencs in which is "best" for some people (for multimedia purposes). Again its all dependant on connection and whatever is causing all the bottlenecks with Sony's servers for those of us that experience the problem.
I havent had many problems while gaming though (depending on the game which usually gets patched at some point anyways). Its just as you said most games use peed to peer so that isnt a PSN issue anyways. If they fixed download speeds though psn would be much better all around for everyone. Streaming is fine too though which is why I just wish I knew what the issue was as psn really is great otherwise.
silly Microsoft.
PR talks is for kids
This is hilarious
Sony marketed the PS3 when it came out as an entertainment system. I mean thats why blu ray was such a big thing for them at the time
Now that MS is trying to catch up they are saying they are better....come on MS you guys are becoming a tad jealous don't you think
Seriously Microsofts arrogance is going to hurt them next gen, it hurt Sony....least they learnt from their mistakes
It's hilarious how sonyboys talk about how arrogant MS is when they were the ones defending sony's arrogance before the PS3 came out. Remember Kutaragi? Y'all were suckling at the sony teat! 599 US Dollars!!! Unbelievable...
@root, not so much your comment as the ones earlier in the post. I was just too lazy to scroll all the way back up, lol.
Ummm ya PS3 was 599 and you got your moneys worth. Bluray was expensive back then. Also 360 was 399. Then 150 for HD Dvd, oh you want Wifi too well that is going to cost you another 50, Memory card readers..dont think so, play files offline off a USB not happening, bluetooth nope! wireless controllers..Nope. Tell me again how PS3 wasn't worth the extra 200.
@dubt72 and if it launched on the same day as the 360 it wouldn't have had bluray either at the end of the day if you look how fast gpu tech moves it should have battered the 360 but instead they had to work around it with the cell.
"Tell me again how PS3 wasn't worth the extra 200."
Cuz it didn't have any good games. I waited a year, paid much less, and by then there were some good games for it.
The question is what were the good games 360 had at launch?
I'd be interested in seeing it for myself.
This article title is full of bullshit.." "isn't as good of an entertainment console " as xbox360 " Notice how they dont quote the last part because they did not say that..
It fills in the gap for the entertainment I need which basically are hulu+ and Netflix. It thrives as a gaming console which is basically the reason I bought it in the first place. Don't want all that extra apps that I won't be using what so ever.
Oh, Mehdi... What have you done!?
yes it is kaz as superman. Starts of behind and with and iron fist still ends up in front!! Just like ps3!
Know I really believe the ex exec who said they only want to stop sony.
"PS3 now the top device for Netflix streaming to a TV
Even outstrips PC viewing at times "
MS so mad and scared.. They thought sony was gonna wait for e3.
This is awsome why? It's like to e3s!! PS4 now and ps4 later nice.
It will be a big show. They just booked a ballroom that holds 2,800 people.
And now sony has the new marketing team who are ex google chrome marketing team headed by creator of Halo 3 Believe + Gears 2 Rendezvous campaign.
They are good.
oh yeh its starting and we are months away from launch or even E3
its gonna be a fun ride
VTW the advertisement firm sony just hired did a lot of work for MS and did the campaign for Halo 3 lol
this is gonna be a fun time to just sit back and watch the PR war. I like how sony's side is fighting back lol
remember this lol
you are hurting my elbow he says in the end lol.
i want to see more advertisement like that, imagine kratos standing outside MS offices and calling out master chief lol
sorry about all the LOL's, i am actually laughing since watching the crash commercial
is that iwata as batman?
I love the silly PR talks. Microsoft is running around like a chicken with its head cut off.
Does this really matter?
People can slag off each console, but in the end it all comes down to personal preference. I prefer the ps3, due to its exclusive, where as others prefer xbox for halo and shit.
Don't see much point in sparking a riot over something as pointless as this..
I remember when the PS3 was released and Microsoft was criticizing the PS3 on how it was just for entertainment and not for gaming. I'm sure they're biting their tongue off lol
Yeah, because I love watching Blurays on my 360...
So...PS3 has more Netflix use, Blu-Ray, 7.1 DTS Master-Audio support and it goes on. Meanwhile, you have to pay a yearly price just to unlock most of the entertainment features on 360.
Does it bother you that people prefer to pay for something than be a welfare recipient or expect things for free or given away.
So every PS3 and PC user is a welfare recipient, because thats what getting access to the internet you already paid for is, receiving welfare.
Better yet, to support the only gaming platform that has its customers/gamers pay to use their very OWN bandwidth... Yet thats right Witwicky your paying to use YOUR OWN BANDWIDTH to use/access Xbox Live... Sad reality, yes?
@wit: Some great "wit" you've got there. So because we don't have to pay we are "welfare recipients". Amazing analogy, almost this-will-go-down-in-history-b ooks amazing

Congo Basin Forest Atlases
The Forest Atlas is a dynamic tool that helps decision-makers in the region achieve sustainable management of forest resources through strengthened land use planning and monitoring.
The Congo Basin Forest Atlases are a living forest information system, merging the latest technology in remote sensing and GIS with ground-truthing to monitor and sustainably manage forests. WRI works in the following Congo Basin countries: Cameroon, Central African Republic, Congo, Democratic Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon.
Through a combination of interactive mapping applications, posters, analytical reports, trainings, and outreach, the Atlases provide users with timely, accurate, and synchronized information about land use allocation (forest concessions, protected areas, mining permits etc.) within national forest estates. The goal of this work is to improve the quality and availability of information in the forest sector to support transparent and participatory decision-making across the Congo Basin.
The first Forest Atlas was released in 2005 for Cameroon, and since then Atlases have been developed for all of the countries in the Congo Basin. These Atlases are the product of a partnership between the World Resources Institute and national governments, in collaboration with the private sector, international donor agencies, and civil society groups.

The European Space Agency (ESA) Venus Express probe has revealed a planet of extraordinarily changeable and extremely large-scale weather. Bright hazes appear in a matter of days, reaching from the south pole to the low southern latitudes and disappearing just as quickly. Such 'global weather', unlike anything on Earth, has given scientists a new mystery to solve. The German Aerospace Center (DLR) plays a key role in the mission's science instrument package as well as the spacecraft hardware.
The cloud-covered world of Venus is all but a featureless, unchangeable globe at visible wavelengths of light. Switch to the ultraviolet and it reveals a truly dynamic nature. Transient dark and bright markings stripe the planet, indicating regions where solar ultraviolet radiation is absorbed or reflected, respectively.
Venus Express watches the behaviour of the planet's atmosphere with its Venus Monitoring Camera (VMC). It has seen some amazing things. In July 2007, VMC captured a series of images showing the development of the bright southern haze. Within days, the high-altitude veil continually brightened and dimmed, moving towards equatorial latitudes and back towards the pole again.
Such global weather suggests that fast dynamical, chemical and microphysical processes are at work on the planet. During these episodes, the brightness of the southern polar latitudes increased by about a third and faded just as quickly, as sulphuric acid particles coagulate.
VMC - unlocking the past
"This bright haze layer is made of sulphuric acid," says Dmitri Titov, VMC Co-Investigator and Venus Express Science Coordinator, Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, Germany. That composition suggests the existence of a formation process to the VMC team. As part of the ongoing mission, VMC data is being analysed by DLR's Institute for Planetary Research and will be used to generate images of Venus's dynamic atmosphere.
At an altitude of about 70 km and below, Venus's carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere contains small amounts of water vapour and gaseous sulphur dioxide. These are usually buried in the cloud layer that blocks our view of the surface at visible wavelengths.
However, if some atmospheric process lifts these molecules high up above the cloud tops, they are exposed to solar ultraviolet radiation. This breaks the molecules, making them highly reactive. The fragments find each other and combine quickly to form sulphuric acid particles, creating the haze.
"The process is a bit similar to what happens with urban smog over cities," says Titov. With over 600 orbits completed, the VMC team now plan to look for repeating patterns of behaviour in the build-up and decrease of the haze layer.
What causes the water vapour and sulphur dioxide to well up in the first place? The team does not know yet. Titov says that it is probably an internal dynamical process in the planet's atmosphere. Also, the influence of solar activity on haze formation has not been completely ruled out.
The Venusian atmosphere - still clouded in mystery
When the team have worked out what causes the hazes and their vigorous dynamics, there is still another problem waiting to be solved. The dark markings on these images are one of the biggest remaining mysteries of Venus's atmosphere. They are caused by some chemical species, absorbing solar ultraviolet radiation. However, as yet, planetary scientists do not know the identity of the chemical.
Now that they can spot these dark patches quickly with VMC, the team hopes to use another Venus Express instrument, VIRTIS, to pinpoint the exact chemical composition of these regions. The VIRTIS instrument was developed by DLR Adlershof, together with Kayser Threde GmbH.
In addition to key onboard instruments, DLR has been intimately involved in testing one of Venus Express's most important components: the main engine. It was proven on the test stands at DLR Lampoldshausen. The testing was conducted in cooperation with EADS Space Transportation, manufacturer of the engines for Venus Express.

Iconic Mexican legend and former Fire attacker Cuauhtemoc Blanco has announced he'll retire following Lobos BUAP's finish of the Liga de Acenso's Apertura tournament next year.
Rated as perhaps the best Mexican player of all-time, Blanco became the first Designated Player in Chicago Fire history when he signed with the Men in Red in 2007. He'd go on to appear in 77 matches, tallying 19 goals and 28 assists with Chicago through the 2009 season before returning to Mexico with Veracruz.
As part of the club's 15th Anniversary in 2012, Blanco was also named as one of the Top 15 players in Chicago Fire history.
Blanco is Mexico's second all-time leading goal scorer, tallying 39 goals across 119 appearances and represented "El Tri" at the 1998, 2002 and 2010 FIFA World Cups.
Most interestingly, the above article also states that one of his planned send off friendlies next year will be in the United States...
