This is third in a series previewing the Cavs' options in the NBA draft. Today: Which player fits best with Kyrie Irving? Next: Whom will the Cavs draft?
League-wide, sources are saying the Cavaliers' organization has a collective man crush on Florida shooting guard Bradley Beal.
They'd love to add him to what they are building in Cleveland with young core pieces Kyrie Irving and Tristan Thompson.
Obviously, Beal would fill a need. The shooting guard spot on the Cavs' roster is a barren wasteland. Backups Daniel Gibson, Manny Harris and D.J. Kennedy are the only shooting guards under contract. One could make a case none of them are keepers. A major upgrade is needed.
That's one reason Beal (6-foot-4 3/4, 202 pounds) is so highly regarded. But another is how seamless his transition to the NBA is expected to be. He's athletic, physical and has no character issues.
"Beal and Irving would be a good combo," NBA scouting director Ryan Blake said. "They need that perimeter shooter. He's ready to step in. He will be a better shooter than he showed second part of season (at Florida last year)."
ESPN analyst Jay Bilas agrees.
"Beal would be a great backcourt mate with Kyrie," Bilas said on a conference call Tuesday. "That would be a terrific combo. There are very few teams he couldn't be good for."
Joe Kotoch of probasketballdraft.com said adding Beal would alleviate some of the offensive burden off Irving.
"There's so much pressure for (Irving) to be all their offense right now," Kotoch said. "Beal looks like a player who can be a good catch-and-shoot guy. He can create for himself and his teammates. Don't forget, there are some executives in the league that think Beal could be a point guard. I'm not one of them. I think he's more of a '2.'
"I think you can run the offense through him. That's not to say Donald Sloan can't do it, either, or another backup point guard. Beal has a very strong body at 205, 210 pounds. He's a guy who can get in the lane and finish and not be pushed around."
The Cavs' problem is they can't remain at No. 4 and expect Beal to drop to them. If they want him, they will have to get creative and try to move up. That's easier said than done.
Rumors say the Cavs might offer Nos. 4 and 24 to move up to Charlotte's No. 2 spot. That would be a steep price to pay.
"Charlotte is entertaining the thought of moving down and acquiring assets," NBAdraftinsider.com's Kristofer Habbas said. "It makes sense. They said they are not enamored with anyone at 2 (other than Kentucky's Anthony Davis, who is expected to be drafted first overall)."
If there's no movement in the top four picks, it appears Washington is ready to select Beal at 3. The Wizards are enamored with Beal, too. John Wall and Beal would also make an interesting backcourt.
"A lot of people like Beal," Bilas said. "It might be an upset if Beal falls to 3. I don't know what the Bobcats will do at 2. They might trade down. They need everything."
In all likelihood, the Cavs might have to pick from a group that could include North Carolina small forward Harrison Barnes (6-8, 228), Kentucky small forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (6-7 1/2, 233) and UConn center Andre Drummond (6-11 3/4, 279).
If Beal, Kidd-Gilchrist and Barnes are on the board, Habbas said he thinks the slick-shooting forward from North Carolina would fit best with Irving.
"The Cavs would be a winner with all three," Habbas said. "Kyrie is friends with Barnes. He has the physical tools to play right away. He'll be a solid wing scorer."
Kotoch said he doesn't see Barnes being the perfect fit with Irving.
"He's a bit of a paper tiger," Kotoch said. "He looked explosive at the combine. He can sink shots in predraft workouts. At the end of the day, the tape says he's not that good of an athlete. He didn't wow anyone at UNC."
In a head-to-head matchup between Beal and Barnes at Cleveland Clinic Courts, the Florida shooting guard looked very good.
"Beal had a very impressive workout," Kotoch said. "He was able to get his shot off against a guy 6-8."
As much as he likes Beal, Kotoch said in his opinion Kidd-Gilchrist would be the best fit with Irving. He's intrigued by the former Kentucky forward's size and ability to run the floor and finish on the fast break.
"He has a higher upside," Kotoch said of Kidd-Gilchrist. "I could see him as a good jump shooter at one point. You can fix his mechanics. If not, he'll still be like Gerald Wallace, who can rebound and slash to the basket."
Kotoch is also a proponent of the Cavs taking Drummond at 4.
"He's a high upside center," Kotoch said. "Nothing should (scare you about him). He could be the next Dwight Howard. If you could get Howard, wouldn't you do it?"
Kotoch said Cavs coach Byron Scott has a track record for getting the most out of draft prospects.
"I would take him," he said. "I trust Byron. He could help develop him as a post center. He could be a franchise center. They could swing for the fences. If you hit with him, who can counter with (a tandem of) Irving and Drummond?"
Draft chatter
-- There's been talk of the Cavs drafting UConn shooting guard Jeremy Lamb (6-5 1/4, 179) at 4. That would be too much of a reach, said one NBA executive who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
There was some talk of Lamb sliding in the draft. Bilas doesn't necessarily buy into that one.
"This is the time you hear a lot of talk, workout rumors and this stuff," Bilas said. "The truth is you've had a whole year to evaluate a kid."
Bilas said he has Lamb ranked in the Nos. 7 or 8 range. If Lamb fell to Phoenix at 13, Lamb said that would be a steal.
-- There's a very good chance both Syracuse center Feb Melo (7-0, 255) and Vanderbilt center Festus Ezeli (6-11 1/2, 264) will be on the board at No. 24. Don't expect the Cavs to take either player there, sources say. They might take one of them if they are there at 33.
"(Ezeli is a) true 7-footer," Bilas said. "He's raw. Well, let's say he needs to refine his post game. He's strong. He's not a high-volume rebounder. He can step right in and be an effective backup center."
-- A candidate for the Cavs at 24 might be Memphis swingman Will Barton (6-6, 174). Bilas said Barton will be gone before Miami's pick at 27.
-- Cavs vice president of basketball operations David Griffin has pulled out of the running for the Los Angeles Clippers' general manager position, a league source confirmed on Tuesday. Griffin joined the Cavs in September 2010 after 17 years with the Phoenix Suns. He works closely with Cavs GM Chris Grant on all basketball and GM matters and oversees the team's scouting and player personnel departments. The story was first written by ESPNLosAngeles.com.
-- Bosnian forward Mirza Teletovic has reportedly reached an agreement to sign with the Brooklyn Nets. His agent said the Cavs and Nets were the finalists to sign the 6-9 forward. A source said the Cavs wanted to wait until after the draft to make a decision on the "stretch 4." Apparently, Teletovic didn't want to wait.

One thing that has bugged me about the Stratos since we got it is a lack of good ground handling control. I know that a steerable nose gear would probably get damaged by those that learn to fly, but I really dislike the fact that you have to steer on the ground with the right stick.
My son has learned to use the left stick on the ground from flying our micros and our large glow trainer. I decided to try and experiment with an old Eflight controller today to link the rudder stick to the aileron stick so that at lest he can steer with the rudder a bit easier on the ground since that is what he has learned by habit. I documented the process in this thread, and will to some test flights with the micro tomorrow before I modify the Stratos controller. http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1784117 If test flights go well I plan to look at changing the nose wheel to a steerable configuration next. I know some durability might be lost, but my son is pretty good at landing now so he should have minimum issues. |

I keep meaning to buy the connectors when I'm at the hobby shop, but forget each time, including 2 days ago. I even told the store clerk that that's what I wanted to do and we headed over to the correct parts shelf but got sidetracked... again. The clerk told me that he called and spoke with Horizon Hobby tech support and they basically refused to tell him what the pinouts were for. Hook 'em up and tell us how they work! |

There should be a list, publicly available on PTA website, of the banned websites in Pakistan along with the reason of the ban.
There should also be a procedure to review the decisions of blocking such websites. This was demanded by Press United to Serve Humanity (PUSH), a Pakistan-based NGO working for the freedom of press to observe March 12 as "World Day against Cyber Censorship".
A recent poll revealed that almost four in five people around the world believe that access to the internet is a fundamental right and the international bodies such as the UN are also pushing for universal net access.
While the right to communicate cannot be ignored, the situation in Pakistan is strange where any website can be blocked by Pakistan Telecom Authority (PTA) without telling any reason or communicating with the webmaster.
With a recently-issued regulation, on direction of Government of Pakistan, PTA can block access to internet or any single URL without mentioning the reason for the ban, having said that, we don't have any rules for banning or for allowing a website. This is really funny and looks like you are to appearing for an exam with no books to study, while examiner will use his/her will to pass it.
Regulation aimed at National Security concerns, is feared to be used by politicians for their own benefits, for instance, a Youtube video was recently banned in Pakistan that showed President Zardari's speech in Lahore.
Last year, the PTA blocked links to a video alleging the misuse of power by Naval Chief who was shown as alleged land grabber.
Whereas in February 2008 elections, Youtube website which hosts a video clip that showed election rigging by a major political party, was blocked in Pakistan but according to PTA the ban was because of the number of "non-Islamic objectionable videos" hosted there .
The webmaster of the 'Make Pakistan Better' website also reported recently that the PTA has directed that the site be blocked on an Internet Protocol level. The webmaster alleges that the site has been blocked for hosting anti-government content, though the PTA has cited no reason for the clampdown. "I think our site is blocked because of these same hard hitting articles. You simply cannot block a website on the basis of having a strong and opposing opinion, because in a country where anti-Islamic or anti-Pakistan site's are not blocked and even in an Islamic state where practically millions of pornographic sites are wide open so the whim of blocking a particular site based upon strong criticism against a certain group of individuals in power should not justifiable or even accepted by society.
The official order for blocking the website issued by Director General Enforcement of PTA is also circulated on the cyber space.
Under article 19 of Universal Declaration of Human Rights "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."

Notice to Health Care Providers — Shiga Toxin-producing E. coli O104 (STEC O104:H4) Infections in U.S. Travelers Returning from Germany
CDC is monitoring a large outbreak of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O104:H4 (STEC O104:H4) infections ongoing in Germany. The responsible strain shares virulence characteristics with enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC). As of May 31, 2011, the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) reported 470 patients with hemolytic uremic syndrome, or HUS (a severe condition associated with STEC infection that can lead to kidney failure), and nine deaths. The strain of STEC that iscausing this illness, STEC O104:H4 is very rare. The illness that it causes is similar to that caused by E. coli O157:H7 or STEC O157:H7, which is also a Shiga toxin-producing E. coli.
CDC is not aware of any cases of STEC O104:H4 infection ever being previously reported in the United States. However, as of May 31, 2011, three cases of HUS in the United States have been reported in persons who recently traveled to Hamburg, Germany. CDC is working with state health departments to learn more about these suspected cases and obtain bacterial isolates for further characterization.
CDC has recommended that any person who has recently traveled to Germany and has signs or symptoms of STEC infection, or HUS, should seek medical care and let the medical provider know about the outbreak of STEC infections in Germany and the importance of being tested for STEC infection.
Symptoms of STEC infection include severe stomach cramps, diarrhea (which is often bloody) and vomiting. If there is fever, it usually is not very high. Most people get better within 5–7 days, but some patients go on to develop HUS, usually about a week after the diarrhea starts. The classic triad of findings in HUS is acute renal damage, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (evidence of schistocytes and helmet cells on peripheral blood smear), and thrombocytopenia.
It is not recommended to give antibiotics to patients with suspected STEC infections until complete diagnostic testing can be performed and STEC infection is ruled out. Some studies have shown that administering antibiotics in patients with STEC infections might increase their risk of developing HUS. However, clinical decision making must be tailored to each individual patient. There may be indications for antibiotics in patients with severe intestinal inflammation if perforation is of concern. Of note, isolates of STEC O104:H4 from patients in Germany have demonstrated resistance to multiple antibiotics.
Guidelines to ensure as complete as possible detection and characterization of STEC infections include the following:
- All stools submitted for testing from patients with acute community-acquired diarrhea should be cultured for STEC O157:H7. These stools should be simultaneously assayed for non-O157 STEC with a test that detects the Shiga toxins or the genes encoding these toxins.
- Clinical laboratories should report and send E. coli O157:H7 isolates and Shiga toxin-positive samples to state or local public health laboratories as soon as possible for additional characterization.
- Specimens or enrichment broths in which Shiga toxin or STEC are detected, but from which O157:H7 STEC isolates are not recovered, should be forwarded as soon as possible to a state or local public health laboratory so that non-O157:H7 STEC can be isolated.
- It is often difficult to isolate STEC in stool by the time a patient presents with HUS. Immunomagnetic separation (IMS) has been shown to increase recovery of STEC from HUS patients. For any patient with HUS without a culture-confirmed STEC infection, stool can be sent to a public health laboratory that performs IMS or to the CDC (through a state public health laboratory). In addition, serum can be sent to CDC (through a state public health laboratory) for serologic testing of common STEC serogroups.
The benefits of adhering to the recommended testing strategy include early diagnosis, improved patient outcome, and detection of all STEC serotypes.
All patients with Shiga toxin-positive diarrheal illness or HUS should be reported to health departments, regardless of a travel history to Germany.

SOURCE Office of Justice Programs
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Office of Justice Programs' (OJP) National Institute of Justice (NIJ) is introducing new enhancements to the evidence-based information dissemination tool, CrimeSolutions.gov. With over 270 program profiles, CrimeSolutions.gov provides users the ability to quickly assess program effectiveness based on rigorous social science evaluations.
"CrimeSolutions.gov is our primary resource for information about the effectiveness of justice programs and practices," said Assistant Attorney General Karol V. Mason. "CrimeSolutions.gov reflects our ongoing commitment to provide easy access to research based, scientific evidence about what works and what doesn't work."
In addition to providing evidence on programs, CrimeSolutions.gov-now supported by NIJ-provides evidence on practices through powerful meta-analysis techniques that look at effectiveness across numerous evaluations of similar, but not necessarily identical, programs, strategies or procedures.
For example, hot spots policing is a practice that has been used in many jurisdictions to focus law enforcement activity on geographic areas with the highest concentrations of crime or some specific type of crime. There have been multiple evaluations of this practice. But a specific model of hotspots policing may not carry over from one jurisdiction to another because the approach is intended to be tailored to the needs of the targeted locality and crime problem. Meta-analysis can examine multiple evaluations of such conceptually similar approaches to answer the question, "on average, how effective are these approaches?"
"The goal of CrimeSolutions.gov-to make rigorous evidence of program effectiveness readily available to criminal justice practitioners and policy makers-is an ideal fit within NIJ's overall mission to support research and translate it into practice and policy," said NIJ Acting Director Greg Ridgeway. "The launch of the new module on effective practices and the assignment of the program within NIJ ensure that CrimeSolutions.gov remains the central resource for evidence of what works in criminal justice, juvenile justice, and victim services."
OJP, headed by Assistant Attorney General Karol V. Mason, provides federal leadership in developing the nation's capacity to prevent and control crime, administer justice and assist victims. OJP has six components: the Bureau of Justice Assistance; the Bureau of Justice Statistics; the National Institute of Justice; the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention; the Office for Victims of Crime and the Office of Sex Offender Sentencing, Monitoring, Apprehending, Registering and Tracking. More information about OJP can be found at www.ojp.gov.

Michael Cunningham's Pulitzer-Prize winning novel The Hours opens with the suicide of Virginia Woolf, who was one of the most important writers of the twentieth century. She becomes a character in his book, as he weaves his depiction of her creation of her celebrated novel Mrs. Dalloway (1925) into the stories of two other women who are profoundly affected by her work. Cunningham traces a day in the three women's lives in which each becomes moved by an urge to create something of lasting significance to themselves and to others. Woolf composes her novel and prepares for a visit by her sister; Clarissa Vaughan and Laura Brown plan parties for friends and/or family.
During this process, the women experience moments of perfect harmony, which help them endure the losses that they inevitably must face. In this poignant exploration of the ironic tension between life and death, creativity and stagnation, Cunningham ultimately presents a life-affirming vision in his novel's celebration of hope and the endurance of the human spirit.

Home | Data and Monitoring | Regional Data Exchange |
Great Lakes Access to accurate and timely data by the public and the scientific, management and policy communities is critical to decisionmaking that affects Great Lakes water resources. However, there is limited emphasis on information standardization across international, state, provincial and county boundaries in the Great Lakes region, and there are few data exchange programs between Great Lakes states, provinces and federal agencies. The Great Lakes Commission, in its role as a binational agency concerned with the orderly, integrated and comprehensive development, use and conservation of the water and related natural resources of the Great Lakes basin, is seeking to coordinate enhancements to the data exchange process among Great Lakes entities. Numerous agencies and individuals throughout the region are involved in this effort, in particular those working with natural resources monitoring and geographic information systems.

Dear IFOB Members and Friends:
Happy (belated) Garifuna Settlement Day! In Belize, November 19 marked the annual Settlement Day celebrations, in which Garifuna descendents commemorate the arrival of their ancestors onto Belizean shores in the early 1800s.
It's also the time of year when we reflect on what makes us truly grateful. In the spirit of good tidings, we invite you to donate to our holiday fundraising campaign. This year, our goal is to raise $10,000 to support IFOB programs. Your dollars directly finance scholarships for needy students and support community grants for local development projects in Belize!
How can you help? It's simple: click the "donate" button on the left side of this page. Together, we can reach our goal of $10,000 by New Years' Day!
Five great reasons to support IFOB:
1) Public school in Belize is not free. For a typical high school student, one year of tuition, fees, uniforms, books, and materials costs up to US$500. These costs can be a real burden—and a deterrent—for low-income Belizean families.
2) Your money goes straight to the cause. Unlike many charities, IFOB dollarsdirectly support students and communities. Less than 1% of all funds raised by IFOB are used for overhead costs associated with running the organization—99% of your support goes directly to Belize.
3) The hills are alive with the sound of music. Hear that sound of hammers? At the Our Lady of Guadalupe School in Belmopan, students spent their summer break constructing a new storage facility to house musical instruments—supported by a 2011 grant from IFOB. Community projects like these rely on your continued support; so spread the word (and feel the music).
4) The coral reefs are alive because of conservation. Thanks to an IFOB community grant, in the Corozal village of Sarteneja the local fisherman's association and a conservation group have teamed up to create an education curriculum (for the children of fisherman) that focuses on the marine ecosystem, coral reef ecology, and sustainable use of fishing resources. The training culminates in field trip to the Bacalar Chico Marine Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Programs like these, supported directly by IFOB donations, help train a new generation of Belizeans to protect some of the world's most precious treasures—coral reefs—while maintaining livelihoods.
5) We want to expand our reach. "I want to continue my education to be someone," wrote one applicant, and we heartily agree. In the last five years, IFOB has distributed 50 school scholarships in Belize, including 10 this year. But we are overwhelmed by demand: in 2011, we received 45 scholarship applications from well-deserving students, from every corner of Belize. IFOB would like to help allthese students work toward their future, but we need your help.
Think of additional reasons? Let us know: post on our Facebook site, email a Board member, tell a friend and spread the word! But please make a donation now. Join us in our efforts to support IFOB projects and reach our goal of $10,000. We are grateful for your continued support and appreciate any amount you can give.
On behalf of IFOB, I wish you a safe and happy holiday season.

Question by sugar_guy84: Singaporeans Only ! Can Honda Integra (DC2) Model be imported into S'pore ?
Does not like the current (DC5) Model.
Best answer:
Answer by swamwise
yes you can.
however, it will be quite expensive and troublesome. you need to consider shipping, LTA clearance and all of that again.
the troubling part is finding a seller outside who is trusworthy and won't cheat you.
why not you get the 2003 dc5? its the type r version. you and fine tune the car to enable the v-tec to be more active. HONDA CARS are very powerful and not to be UNDERESTIMATED. its 2005 NSX HSC is ranked 2nd in the world for the engine. Audi S8 is first. rather than spending all the money on shipping and LTA clearance…
What do you think? Answer below!

"Secretary Panetta has an important job and doesn't need to waste his time trying to perpetrate President Obama's global warming fantasies or his ongoing war on affordable energy. He has a real war to win."
Inhofe: Panetta Global Warming Remarks Show Need for More Congressional Oversight
By EPW Blog (Bio and Archives) Friday, May 4, 2012 Comments at bottom of page | Print friendly | Subscribe | Email Us |
Washington, D.C. - Senator James Inhofe (R-Okla.), Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works and Senior Member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, today responded to remarks made this week by Defense Secretary Leon Panetta at an event sponsored by a far-left environmental group. Secretary Panetta said, "In the 21st century, reality is that there are environmental threats that constitute threats to our national security" and vowed that the Pentagon will take a leading role in shifting the way the US uses energy.
"I've always thought a lot of Secretary Panetta – therefore, I can't believe he caved in to President Obama in trying to legitimize global warming alarmism," Senator Inhofe said. "Every assertion he made is right out of Al Gore's now debunked science fiction movie.
"The real threat to national security are policies that force DoD to expend increasing amounts of its scare resources on extremely expensive alternative energy, when President Obama has gutted the defense budget by a half trillion dollars over the next ten years. DoD is already drastically cutting its personnel, the number of brigade combat teams, tactical fighters, and airlift aircraft. It is cutting or postponing programs such as the C-27, Global Hawk Block 30, C-130 avionics modernization, the F-35, the littoral combat ship, the next generation ballistic missile submarine, and ground combat vehicles. Forcing DoD to expend more money on expensive alternative fuels further exacerbates its budget issues.
"The far-left green energy agenda being carried out at the Pentagon by the Obama administration is clearly in need of Congressional oversight. In the coming days and weeks, I will be working to put the spotlight on this radical agenda, which further drains our defense budget and puts our military at risk.
"I don't mind President Obama writing press releases for the rest of his lackeys but Secretary Panetta has an important job and doesn't need to waste his time trying to perpetrate President Obama's global warming fantasies or his ongoing war on affordable energy. He has a real war to win."

Aase syndrome is a rare disorder that involves anemia and certain joint and skeletal deformities.
Aase-Smith syndrome; Hypoplastic anemia/Triphalangeal thumb syndrome
Most cases of Aase syndrome occur without a known reason and are not passed down through families (inherited). However, some cases have been shown to be inherited.
The anemia in Aase syndrome is caused by poor development of the bone marrow, which is where blood cells are formed.
The doctor will perform a physical exam. Tests that may be done include:
Treatment may involve blood transfusions in the first year of life to treat anemia.
A steroid medication called prednisone has also been used to treat anemia associated with Aase syndrome. However, it should only be used after reviewing the benefits and risks with a doctor who has experience treating anemias.
A bone marrow transplant may be necessary if other treatment fails.
The anemia tends to improve with age.
Complications related to anemia include:
Heart problems can lead to a variety of complications, depending on the specific defect.
Severe cases of Aase syndrome have been associated with stillbirth or early death.
Genetic counseling is recommended if you have a family history of this syndrome and wish to become pregnant.

An oldie but a goodie, Being a macgeek I fell in love with this idea when I saw it in 2001
and I thought I would revive it for the instructable crowd.
Step 1: First you need a Apple Cube
Step 2: Taking it apart
(you can still use the computer, without the shell)
Step 3: Removing the Upper housing and air filter
leaving the two side panels.
Step 4: Putting in the Tissue Box
Step 5: The Finished Product
And when they start to cry with jealousy you can now hand them a fresh tissue.
1-40 of 63 | Next » |
It took me a couple of months trying on eBay, but I finally got one for $50
The *most* I've ever spent on a decorative tissue box.....but well worth the giggle factor!
It holds a place of honor on my computer desk in my "Home Orifice"
that must have been cool visiting Apple HQ
If you do, tell Steve Jobs I said hello.
(I'm kidding, I don't HAVE a Apple ][ forever tattoo (but it sounds like a cool idea)
[I'm Kidding again, I'm Jewish, and (most) Jews don't get tattoo's]
As ZChampine said RAM is the easiest way to speed up a computer if you are running multiple applications. The less memory you have the more often the system has to use virtual memory; which consists of saving memory blocks to your hard drive. Once you get the max memory for your system then upgrading the drive to a faster one might make your system faster.
And when he refers to CPU speed, i assume that he is talking about clock. Many casual users think that the speed of the CPU is the determining factor. I mean a 3.8GHz P4 would surely be faster than a 2.66GHz i7, right?
lets not get into a pissing contest on which machine is better.
so high, how many people out there LOVE there dell?
I used to own a Mac, it was an alright computer, but i never got to the stage of plastering everything with Apple logos.

I just posted this in the Bioware forums, and thought I would extend the discussion to the Darth Hater crowd, to see what everyone else thinks.
A long time ago in a Galaxy far far away, I had the expectation that SWTOR would not allow players to "pay to win".
When Free to Play was announced, I was fine with the idea. Afterall, allowing new players to experience the storyline of SWTOR might very well hook them on the game and increase subscriptions. The Cartel Market never worried me because I had seen similar ideas in other subscription MMOs, and buying from the online cash only store never affected your game play.
What I didn't expect was the ability to purchase items on the cash only store that could be sold on the GTN. In some games, even that would not have had as big an impact as in SWTOR, because in those other games there's an extremely limited amount of gear that is useful in end game content that can be purchased for in game currency.
In SWTOR, PVE content is completed using gear that can be purchased, in its entirety, from crafters selling on the GTN. What about the set bonus? Well, in other games with an armor set bonus, this would be a problem. In SWTOR, you are given commendations enough to purchase a complete set of Tionese gear at level 50, all of which can be upgraded to the latest standard of gear while maintaining the set bonus. Or you could get the same from running a week's worth of flashpoints and operations.
To summarize, in game currency is now sufficient to purchase the highest tier of gear for all PVE content. Since you can sell Cartel Market items for outlandish sums on the GTN, it is very easy for someone to turn real money into in game currency and then into in game items that improve their performance.
This is, of course, what is meant by Pay to Win. The only thing worse, and less subtle than the route Bioware has chosen to follow, would be to include the highest tier mods in the armor they sell on the Cartel Market. Bioware has chosen the smarter route, which is to allow players to handle the exchange themselves, thus avoiding the immediate ire of everyone who hates pay to win.
Bioware understands very well that if they were to make the cash shop items Bind on Pickup, rather than Bind on Equip, their revenue might drop. A significant portion of the purchases made on the Cartel Market go straight to the GTN, and that would no longer be possible. That said, as a counter argument, even more real money purchases might arise, because players in the game wouldn't be able to spend their in game credits to purchase them, and might actually want a lot of what is being offered, and therefore be forced to pay real money for it.
The Pay to Win practice pushes away players who play for the love of the game. It is especially disheartening when you see introductions to the GTN like the new speeder with protection against falling off that exceeds speeder piloting III. Only an incredibly small portion of the SWOTR population can receive a mount with a similar ability by playing the game (the NiM Denova Tank Mount), and even that is a matter of luck, since it is a rare drop.
As it now stands, you can purchase everything used for space content and PVE content using either directly or indirectly purchased goods. Only PVP gear is sacred at this point in time (other than the expertise crystal), and it would not surprise me to see the introduction of a Cartel Market item that allowed players to get around the valor limitation as well.
Furthermore, Cartel Market items tread on the corpse of Legacy, allowing players to purchase Legacy only unlocks using cartel coins instead of credits. I wouldn't mind this particularly if it wasn't for the fact that in doing so they also eliminated the requirement of Legacy Level to use these perks, and have not bothered to introduce any Legacy Level perks over level 25. Nor have they kept any of the Legacy level perks sacrosanct to Legacy. If you have money, rather than time, you can simply purchase them with cash and ignore the effort level normally required to earn such rewards.
This wholesale approach to this game via the Cartel Market has left a bitter taste in my mouth. I'm not ditching my subscription just yet. I've enjoyed previous Bioware games, and respect the quality they normally bring to the table. However, I am becoming more and more certain that the long time players, those who would pay a subscription for 10 years straight in return for quality, are not the players Bioware is currently catering to.
I could go on to list bug fixes left undone since launch, UI features that are so basic that they should never have left Beta without them, etc, but in reality, my chief complaint is the Cartel Market. I'm not interested in Pay to Win. The rest of the stuff, even a ready check, I can improvise around. I'm having difficulty coming to terms with a subscription game where you can simply buy your gear with real money.
What do you think?


text: Diptheria Diptheria is a contagious bacterial disease that produces thick, gray membranes in the mouth, throat, and airway passages. The disease occurs largely because of a toxin produced by the infecting bacteria, Corynebacterium diptheriae. Diptheria can produce difficulty in breathing, pneumonia, heart failure, even paralysis and death. The entire process was described in epidemics in Europe in the 1500s and 1600s and in New England in the 1800s. All 50 states have laws requiring immunization against diptheria before entering school. The use of the DTP and DTaP vaccine has made it almost nonexistent in the U.S.
