Hi Heather!
Sorry you found my diary (clearly it's only because you were planning/had to have surgery)
but how cool that yours was exactly one year after mine!
Hopefully you'll find a lot of information on here that will be helpful for you as you progress through your rehab and recovery. It's definitely a long and challenging road, and although my knee may not be 100% like it was before I ever had any knee injuries, it definitely feels 200% better than my pre-op state. So, I'd definitely go through everything I went through in the last year, even if I knew my outcome would be my current status (some pain with over exertion or standing on my feet for awhile, but I also had an enormous tibial plateau defect and the tibial plateau is a challenging area with the amount of weightbearing/stress it takes). Hopefully that will give you some encouragement in the next few weeks.
If you have any questions, comments, concerns, totally feel free to post on here, or also directly email me. I do try to check the board as much as I can and update when possible, but being in an accelerated BSN for nursing school keeps me extremely busy! So email is best if you want or need a quicker reply
I wish you the best of luck in your recovery. If you totally stick to the protocol and don't do anything crazy you should hopefully have a smooth recovery
Again, definitely get in touch if you have any questions or anything! Dr. Minas is an AMAZING doctor and I'm so grateful to be under his care. I totally trust him with my knee!

Hey everyone!
Well I can't believe it's been over a year since the last time I posted on here. It's been quite the road in the last year, some good, some bad. But, I figured I needed to update my fellow KneeGeeks, and ask for comments, thoughts, support, etc. on my current situation. The good news is that I graduated from Duke with my BSN in May, and passed the NCLEX, so I am officially licensed and an RN now! Feels SO good to say that. Despite not having a job at the moment, I'm kind of enjoying the time off from studying and working, especially since it's summer (and since I was in an accelerated BSN program it's 4 semesters straight through, which means I missed out on summer last year).
SO, I was supposed to go back for an 18-month post-op appointment back in November 2010, to re-assess my condition from my 1-year post-op appointment which was in May 2010. If you don't remember (and don't want to go back to read it) I had a right knee lateral tibial plateau ACI with a distal femoral osteotomy. The osteotomy has fixed my alignment issue, and has held up great with no issues, however the ACI was kind of a different story. I had still had some pain at my 1-year post-op, but nowhere near as bad as I was prior to surgery. I had an MRI, where it was diagnosed that my ACI defect had filled in about 2/3 with cartilage, and about 1/3 was still left to be filled. Dr. Minas wasn't thrilled with these results, but had hope that my cartilage would continue to regenerate, since my defect was pretty much my entire tibial plateau (20x25mm). There was also some edema in my tibia, underneath the cartilage within the bone. Again, not happy that it was still there (since it was present prior to my surgery), but he said it was less so at least that was good I guess. I had also been having this popping/clicking issue that caused my joint to shift out of place (the only way I can describe it), where when it did the click/pop you could literally see my lower leg move laterally and the back really quick. Obviously, not good, however this was attributed to a small cartilage overgrowth in one area. No big deal, right? So at this point Dr. Minas recommended the 18-month post-op appointment to re-check on all these issues. He recommended he may do an abrasion to help stimulate cartilage growth, and shave down the cartilage bump, but it would only need to be another scope.
Well, turns out that my 18 month post-op appointment turned into a 20-month post-op appointment, and actually occurred in January 2011. They had some scheduling issues back in November and had to cancel me, etc. At this point since my May 2010 appointment, my knee had become slightly more painful on a more consistent basis, but I also attributed it to doing more "physical" things, such as being on my feet for 12 hour nursing clinicals at the hospital (which, despite being cleared from wearing my unloader brace I always wore my unloader with clinical, because it scared me not to). So, my January appointment. I had an MRI and then my office appointment with Dr. Minas, of course keeping in mind everything that we discussed at my 1 year appointment (i.e. potential for another scope, etc). Honestly, after going through the whole ACI surgery/rehab, I really thought nothing could be worse than that. Well, I was wrong. Finding out your ACI failed, there's absolutely no graft left, your tibia has about 5mm worth of edema in the bone, and the now occasional popping/clicking/joint shifting that was occurring (which is now constant and can be performed on command) is most likely a destroyed lateral meniscus, was one of the biggest blows I could've been dealt. ACI was supposed to be the "end all be all, this was supposed to be my final surgery, this was supposed to fix my knee...I moved to NC, started nursing school, it was all supposed to be a new beginning" was all I could think. Then statistics start to be thrown around that only 6-8% of ACIs fail, and you wonder how you can be in that category (of course always knowing that with surgery things could not work out, but you never think it will be you), how 92-94 people out of 100 have good results from ACI, and only 6-8 people don't have results and completely fail, and YOU are in that category of failing. All I could do at this point was burst into tears, with Dr. Minas there and my dad who came for the appointment. I felt like I was punched in the stomach.
Of course after I composed myself came the "so, what does this all mean now?" Realistically, I knew the answer: another surgery. What was presented to me was a lateral tibial plateau/lateral meniscus fresh osteoarticular allograft transplant, along with removal of my femoral osteotomy plate/screws (since he would already be in there and there's no reason for me to keep it in there because I no longer need it). The surgery would include taking approximately 5mm deep of my lateral tibial plateau, along with the lateral meniscus, and replacing them with fresh cadaver graft. I think my jaw hit the floor. All I could think of was "cutting part of my bone off and replacing it?!?" Rehab includes a few day stay in the hospital, a CPM, etc. I was told it will be similar to the ACI rehab, but the time frame moves along quicker than ACI does because there isn't the fragile cartilage cells to worry about. Unfortunately, at this point, this is really my only option. I asked how long I had before my knee would pretty much completely "fall apart," as I put it. He said about a year, to a year and a half. So, another open knee surgery (#2 open, #6 total), another long rehab...just another everything that of course I don't really want to go through. So, prior to leaving his office, they took x-rays with measurement markers to get the measurements on how large my tibia is and such. These measurements will go into a fresh tissue database, to be matched with cadavers. When they find a match, I will get a call that they found one.
I received insurance approval a couple of months ago, so now it really just is a waiting game. At first I thought insurance approval was going to be like it was for ACI, where you have to jump through hoops, etc. (I didn't but I know several others here have). However, I was "pleased" to be informed/told that "these pretty much always get approved since insurance companies know you have to have a really bad knee to need this." Oh, fabulous to hear. Also, the thing with this surgery is it can't be "scheduled" and can't be planned for. Unfortunately, I'm at the mercy of when they find a size match for me in the tissue bank. The good thing is that it's based on size, not like organs, where it's based on need or number on a list. So, I could get a call anytime. When I get a call, they'll want to do the surgery as soon as possible, since it's a fresh graft, and with each day that passes the tissue becomes less viable. So, surgery will happen within 7 days of getting a call saying that I have a match, and accepting it.
So, unfortunately, this update isn't the "happy, my knee is awesome, everything is great!" update that I would be hoping to post at this point. I have been wanting to post an update for awhile now, well really since January when I found out, but I think part of it was severely denial that I am in this situation and didn't want to accept it (definitely not because I had forgotten about all of the help and support I have received from this board!). It would be great to hear how some of the "regulars" who had followed my story/posting are doing. I would also appreciate it if anyone knew where I could post to get information/stories about osteoarticular allograft transplant. I could only find where to post about OATS, which I know is not the same thing. Any help, advice, and certainly support (since I know so many people on here have experienced the same frustration/denial I currently am in knowing that your knee saga isn't finished), is so very much appreciated.
Thanks guys

Hi Nicole,
I'm so sorry to hear about your graft failure, but thanks so much for your update. I'm in a situation similar to yours, I'm 26, and am scheduled for ACi with TTO and tibial valgus osteotomy with Dr. Minas in September. Your post-op diary from 2 years ago has been really interesting and informative for me to read. I guess one option that you might consider, though I know the Boston docs are all against it, is partial knee replacement (osteoarticular allograft transplant is not your only option). I've seen 4 OS about my knee and the 3 that are at BWH all recommended ACI, but Dr. Noyes in Ohio recommended knee replacement. I know it seems like a scary final decision but from what I've read and been told by patients and docs (I'm a med student in Boston), the recovery is fast and impressive, people are able to return to activities of daily life and get great range of motion, and patients are very happy (apparently knee replacement and cataracts surgery are the surgeries that patients rate highest in terms of post-op outcome). They last for about 10-20 years but I'm under the impression that by then the technology will be light years ahead and we won't need to worry about having more than 2 in our lifetimes. It's my plan B after ACI. Anyway, good luck and keep us updated!

Hey petite knee,
Sorry I haven't seen your post until now, several months later (and a new year at that!). I hope this finds you well on the way of recovery post-ACI and TTO, and that everything went well!
As you previously mentioned, I'm sure I could find an orthopedic surgeon who would automatically suggest a partial knee replacement given the shape that my knee is in. I also know that there are tons of individuals out there who are happy with their artificial knees, and their recovery was a lot faster than many of the other recoveries that come with other surgical options. However, being so young it's an option that I want to delay for as long as I possibly can, and wouldn't consider now. I'm sure down the road technology will become even better than it is now, and that artificial knees will last even longer than they currently do. I just look at it like I want to exhaust all possible options before ever thinking about the "terminal" option. Plus, I was told that although an osteoarticular allograft transplant is (although still long and detailed) a less lengthy, less restrictive surgery than the ACI/DFO I went through (one of the "positives" I'm trying to look at in this whole thing!).
The "good news" is that over the last couple of months, it seems that either my body is becoming used to the pain or in fact my muscles are continuing to become stronger, because my knee seems less painful than it has been. This is a major thing, considering I started an RN job that keeps me on my feet for 8 hours/day, 5 consecutive days a week. The first few weeks of my job were rough, my knee wasn't used to being put through that much in awhile since I graduated from school in May and hadn't had a job or nursing clinical in several months. But, after 3-4 weeks I'd say the pain/discomfort definitely decreased. I'm thinking of possibly asking Dr. Minas if I could try and get a custom unloader. My current unloader brace is a "OTS custom" one in that it's already made and sized, but can be "customed" with the straps, etc. to fit you a bit better than something completely OTS. However, I just think a custom one would offer me the greatest comfort and greatest fit with a laser sketch of my leg, and therefore I'd be more apt to wear it more often than the one I currently have. Then thoughts cross my mind like it may be pointless to get a custom brace now when I have another surgery ahead, however I know that if I wait until after surgery it'll be awhile before all the swelling is decreased/completely gone for me to even remotely take accurate measurements for a custom brace. (Maybe I just think myself in circles too much, lol). Ultimately, I know that despite my knee "feeling" better, I know the damage is still done and it can't stay that way, and surgery is still in my future, and I'm still waiting for a call for a match.
I'm glad that my journal has been able to help other people who have had similar surgeries to mine. I always had hope that I'd have a "happy ending," (as we are all ultimately looking for), but I've always felt it to be important to keep up with my journey and continue to write about the struggles/failures that have happened along my road, as we unfortunately know they're always a possibility. But, just keeping my head up and taking things day by day, as I am surely not going to let this ruin my life and/or defeat me! At least this board has definitely showed me I'm not alone with my knee saga
Well I'd love to hear how your surgery went and how your recovery is going! Keep me updated and keep in touch!

Hi all,
I have a PS3 slim CECH-2001 model which was stuck in an endless update loop of due to a failed wireless connection.
I have tried everything I could find from Mr Google such as using a different HDD, clean format, using various firmware versions (3.50, 3.55, 3.41) on a USB dongle and it always resulted either 8002F1F9 or 8002F281 error. The console was supposedly OK before the failed update so I believe the Blu ray drive is OK.
I got it to restore a few times but it only got to about 55% and the error message popped up
I think the last option is to do a firmware downgrade on a Slim console using a patched jailbreak key. I know this is risky but there is no other option on this piece of junk.
Can anyone tell me if there is another way to fix the fault?

I'm Related to Mario Batali? Unearthing Our Hidden Histories Through Our DNA
Do we ever really find out who we are? Maybe not, but 23andMe helps us get a little closer by revealing our genetic secrets.
With last week's untimely passing of the great film critic Roger Ebert, the world must now turn to another writer. Here are six critics who have what it takes.

It's only been three years since California voters rejected a proposition to legalize marijuana, but supporters of legal pot are going to try again in 2014. The Secretary of State announced Thursday that backers of a new initiative can start hustling for the 504,760 signatures they need to get their measure on the November 2014 ballot. They have 150 days.
According to the Sacramento Bee, Californians have changed their minds about legalizing marijuana since 2010; a majority of the state's voters now support decriminalizing cannabis. Have you changed your opinion?
Here's the text of the initiative:
MARIJUANA LEGALIZATION. INITIATIVE STATUTE. Decriminalizes marijuana and hemp use, possession, cultivation, transportation, or distribution. Requires case-by-case review for persons currently charged with or convicted of nonviolent marijuana offenses, for possible sentence modification, amnesty, or immediate release from prison, jail, parole, or probation. Requires case-by-case review of applications to have records of these charges and convictions erased. Requires Legislature to adopt laws to license and tax commercial marijuana sales. Allows doctors to approve or recommend marijuana for patients, regardless of age. Limits testing for marijuana for employment or insurance purposes. Bars state or local aid to enforcement of federal marijuana laws. Summary of estimate by Legislative Analyst and Director of Finance of fiscal impact on state and local government:Reduced costs in the low hundreds of millions of dollars annually to state and local governments related to enforcing certain marijuana-related offenses, handling the related criminal cases in the court system, and incarcerating and supervising certain marijuana offenders. Potential net additional tax revenues in the low hundreds of millions of dollars annually related to the production and sale of marijuana and industrial hemp, a portion of which is required to be spent on marijuana-related research and other activities.

Bus Stop
From the new theater company the Den comes a play so old-fashioned it makes You Can't Take It with You look avant-garde. Inge's 1955 work concerns a group of travelers snowed in at a Kansas bus stop—the kind of place where patrons trade bits o' intergenerational wisdom over plates stacked with steaming eggs, men defend loose women from their belligerent boyfriends by punching the lugs out cold, and the sole uppity East Coast interloper has both a Ph.D. and a record of molestation.
The Den's production—from novice directors (and longtime actors) Mortensen and Martin—features a notably clunky staging. Much of the action clumps inartfully at the stage-right dining counter. The directors also make basic storytelling missteps: Several ostensibly discreet conversations, for example, take place roughly a yard from the person discussed. Inge's hyperrealist text doesn't support this as a stylistic choice, particularly when the deep playing space offers a trouble-free alternative.
Still, in this bright production of a prehistoric chestnut, Liz Zweifler emanates warmth as the deep-voiced restaurant matron Grace, while Brian Kavanaugh brings a blustery, aptly overcompensatory energy to the big-talking, virginal cowboy Bo. The others do just fine, verging only occasionally into too-broad indicating (a fierce snarl and a subtle fisticuffs gesture to indicate wrath, for instance). The evening's real winner is the Den itself, a vast, attractive loft space in Wicker Park that the program indicates the company plans to rent out cheap. Play makers, take note.

Louisiana still dealing with all that aftermath of -- another growing concern is west Nile state already one of the hardest hit by the disease this year with six deaths.
Reported so far.
So -- flooding from -- pose an even bigger threat.
As standing water draws mosquitoes during -- -- telephone is doctor Lyle Peterson CDC director -- Division a vector borne infectious diseases doctor Peterson thank you for joining us.
Are you concerned abouts.
Disease outbreak in the flood zone -- in Louisiana gulf region.
Well I'm certainly concerned about all areas that -- bad West Nile Virus this year.
Including in Louisiana.
Our experience however suggests that big flooding -- really don't affect west now.
Virus hell breaks.
It seems kind of paradoxical because you might think that there's more flooding -- mosquitoes.
But it turns out that the flood sometimes watch out some mosquito breeding sites and then create others though the effective as of about zero.
Well that's great things are there other concerns was standing water that people should be aware of.
Well I think my major concern is is that in many areas where West Nile Virus activity has occurred that.
The bloodied and other factors.
Related to the hurricane may caught a lot of people of the outside and exposed to those mosquitoes bit out west -- are -- them.
What is your take overall what's the status update for West Nile Virus -- know there's been spraying and significant parts of Texas in the south but it's really nationwide concern isn't it.
It is a nationwide concern West Nile Virus does the president throughout the United States -- just a matter how much and and what we've seen in recent weeks as the number of cases continue to.
Go up rather dramatically.
And even in new places.
In such as in the north of northern parts of the country which.
Hadn't seen a lot of cases in the in previously -- -- here.
Doctor Lyle Petersen of the CDC thanks.

First of all if NICKI said some ish to me like that, MAID or not I would pop her in the MOUTH…I understand why she got pissed off, but if she really did say what she said…this B**CH would of had her A** handed to her…ol DISRESPECTFUL A** & speaking of treating people like animals B**CH you dress like ONE!!!
TMZ reports — There was a big confrontation at Nicki Minaj's house in Hollywood moments ago … and it got so bad the cops came … TMZ has learned.
Here's the backstory. Law enforcement tells us, a couple of weeks ago, Nicki's maid took a photo of the singer out of the trash and then asked Nicki to sign it. Nicki got pissed and fired her.
Cops tell us, the maid did come back today, and Nicki became enraged and ordered her to leave. A source privy to the fight tells TMZ, the maid stood her ground, demanding not to be "treated like an animal" — at which point, Nicki allegedly said, "I'll show you how to treat someone like an animal … get the f**k out of my house!"
Now here's where the stories are a bit conflicting. One source says — contrary to what the cops say – Nicki actually made a mistake, saw another maid and assumed she was the one Nicki had fired.
We have had multiple people involved in the incident tell us … the maid Nicki confronted was NOT the same maid she fired a few weeks ago. It was a case of mistaken identity.
Either way, Nicki's boyfriend got in the act and began pushing the maid with his body. The maid's boss called the cops and filed a battery report.
The cops came and the maid asked to make a citizen's arrest, but eventually decided against it so no one was taken into custody.

I noticed the spec on a recent HP server was 30A inrush (and they didn't parameterize it by supply voltage). so a rack (up to 40, say) * 30A does seem like a lot. what actually happens if you fail to meet the inrush current? I'd kinda expect nothing bad to happen - how fast would breakers respond? isn't the inrush really a design parameter - vendors could limit it to whatever they wanted (such as 20% over nominal). I did also note that servers are shipping with PSU's quoted at ~92% efficiency, which is nice to see. wonder if any of them will ever stick a little battery in the PSU like google...

It's not like anyone in Tulsa really needs a detailed rundown of David Cook's background. After all, most of the city was watching his progress as he marched through American Idol to win the televised performance contest in the spring of 2008.
The two years he spent in Tulsa as a member of Midwest Kings had already made him a local favorite, garnering a solid following as he released his first solo disc, Analog Heart, in 2006. Winning American Idol after spending two years here playing and bartending simply launched him to hometown hero status.
An extensive world tour following Cook's self titled RCA debut encompassed nearly two years and saw Cook greeted by sold out shows in both Tulsa and Oklahoma City when he returned to Oklahoma, as well as fanatical audiences nationwide. Once the cycle was complete, however, Cook retreated to his new hometown of Los Angeles to begin work on a follow up. That sophomore release, This Loud Morning, was released in June of this year and has been building slowly, culminating in a tour which just launched last week and will stop at Cain's Ballroom this Thursday night, Oct. 13.
"It was a little scary putting out a record that I spent a year and a half working on, especially in a climate where everyone is putting out music in two months," Cook said.
Following the new disc's June release, a big tour announcement was expected. The summer came and went with nothing. Finally a fall tour with Gavin DeGraw and Carolina Liar was announced and Cook is back on the road, where he feels comfortable. When asked about the delay, Cook said "This record presented a real challenge -- just implementing the ideas and meanings that came through in the songs. And that also extended to putting together the proper tour. When the opportunity to tour with Gavin came along, it just seemed to fit. He's a great guy and a great musician and I want to go out with artists that I want to see as well."
"I'm really jazzed to go out with Carolina Liar," he continued. "I met Chad (Wolf, Carolina Liar's lead singer) in Sweden. We went bar hopping on Stockholm and really hit it off, so I'm really looking forward to touring with his band."
Ultimately, the lineup provides an unexpected balance. While none of the artists are particularly similar, they all complement each other to provide a well rounded evening of music.
"There's no pretense with this lineup. Everyone has their own vibe and I like that. I love going to live shows, but I get bored going to shows where all the bands sound the same. I think this tour has a good balance -- it's able to maintain stimulation, but it's not too extreme," Cook said.
Mostly though, Cook admitted he's chomping at the bit to get back on the road. "I'm really glad to be coming back to Tulsa," he said. "Believe me -- when working that long on the record, that really ate at me. I thought 'I like LA, but I'm ready to get back on the bus.' I'm ready for my bunk again."
Of course, the main part in that delay to get back on the road was the time it took to write and record the new record.
"With this record, there were a lot of things that happened, both good and bad," he said. "My brother passed away and I had a platinum record, both when I was on tour, so there were these extreme highs and lows. In an effort to experience the tour to its fullest, I just chose not to experience those things at the time. So when I finally stopped and tried to write, I started processing all of those things."
"When I first started writing, all of that came out and it was so emotionally convoluted that I had to step back from it for a bit," Cook said.
While Cook's RCA debut was a good introduction and jumping off point, This Loud Morning feels more complete and thought out -- more representative of Cook than the prior album.
"I've always used music as therapy, to work things out. I think I've done 10 records at this point and this one has been the most uncomfortable for me, if just because of the honesty and everything I was dealing with when writing it."
Although somewhat cloaked in the sonics and imagery of the album, that honesty comes through, nonetheless, making This Loud Morning a more coherent album and overall statement than Cook's previous disc. Thematically, it builds around the concept of sleep as a reprieve from the craziness and noise of the world, opening with "Circadian" and cycling through a relationship form start to finish, before closing with "Rapid Eye Movement."
The songs may be growing and developing, but it's still the same David Cook that we came to know and love. Los Angeles, TV exposure and world tours haven't changed him much: If anything, they have just expanded his vision and made him even more grateful for the opportunities he's been given. That makes this week's show something of a homecoming for Cook, his band (which includes Tulsa native Andy Skib, of Midwest Kings) and fans that have followed him for years.
Tickets are still available for this Thursday night's concert at Cain's Ballroom for $40 at the door. It's a co-headlining tour with Cook and Gavin DeGraw sharing top billing and Carolina Liar opening the show at 7:30pm. Music fans will want to arrive early to catch it all and experience a balanced show that covers a broad swath of the pop-rock genre before David Cook wraps up the night with an anthemic sweep for fans old and new -- and perhaps a few surprises for his old home crowd.

Known as the "City by the Lake," the quaint city of The Colony, Texas, is perhaps one of the best kept treasures in the northern Lone Star State region. Located 23 miles along the eastern shoreline of Lewisville Lake, residents here enjoy a diverse array of recreational activities. Due to its exceptional quality of life, low cost of living and close proximity to the metropolitan Dallas area, many residents are finding their home in The Colony apartments for rent. The city has seen an explosive amount of growth in recent years, with a population of more than 37,500, according to information from the U.S. Census Bureau.
Since the city has seen steady growth since its incorporation in the late 1970s, it is amazing to think that this area was once a tract of open, free land. Once called Peters Colony, the area was eventually owned by the Texas Emigration and Land Company of Louisville, Ky., in the 1850s, and the land was set aside for new residents who pledged allegiance to what was known then as the Republic of Texas. The city underwent many changes over the years, but The Colony truly began to take shape after the construction of the Lewisville Lake Dam was completed in the 1970s, creating the neighboring city of Eastvale that attracted many Texans to the area.
Because of its ideal location near Lewisville Lake, The Colony boasts 28 parks with more than 3,000 acres - one of the highest acres of parks per capita in the state. Trails from leisurely to challenging are the perfect escape for many residents here. Another popular amenity that many families take advantage of for outdoor recreation is the Five Star Complex, the premier sports facility in the city. Home to numerous soccer fields, hiking and biking trails, football fields and a veterans memorial, this park is one of the many reasons why The Colony was named by Sports Illustrated as one of the top sports towns in the country.

An hourlong show following the foul-mouthed chaps from EA's Battlefield: Bad Company is currently in the works at Fox. John Eisendrath of Alias fame is handling writer duties and will serve as executive producer alongside Doug Robinson from studio Happy Madison, and Patrick Bach and Patrick O'Brien from EA.
The adaptation of Battlefield: Bad Company will follow four soldiers transitioning from military life to the private sector, Deadline reports. Their old commanding officer apparently used them to propel the agenda of a shadow unit within the government and now wants them dead to cover his own involvement because that is exactly what the game was about.

If they can make it like Generation Kill, I'd be game. I fucking loved GK man
BBK. TapatalkingBoyBettaKnow
Can people please stop calling PS4 and XBOne 'next gen'. Both systems are now out. It's now the current generation.

Well, BFBC1 IS my best FPS game this gen, probably even in my top 2, and although many liked cod 4 SP and the SP for BFBC 1 was not rated high, i really loved it, the way it was created and the squad was just epic. In terms of game characters, they are one of the best.
Never had so much fun.
As long as they can keep the same type of comedy and cast then i am very well hyped!
10-13-2012 #8
I prefer BFBC 1 + 2 to the COD gmes and BF3 (still play BFBC2 online religiously), so if the tv show makes it over here i'll give it a watch

I have an app that was created and released by a contractor. I'm attempting to release updates to the code but don't have access to the private portion of the certificate created by the contractor. I would like to change the certificate that is associated with the application but am concerned about the ramifications of changing the iCloud Key Value Store identifier and data that existing users have stored in the cloud.
I would love something step by step identifying all the steps needed, this could be from someone who's gone through something similar or documentation, etc.
Also, if there are additional details that would be helpful please let me know and I'll update accordingly.

The Big Freeze
Looking back ten years at the worst ice storm in Maine history.
Ten years ago this month, I was in an office in Brunswick when a light rain began to fall and word came from a co-worker that the roads were getting slick. Being a boss who preferred that his employees not risk their necks for nonprofit wages, I sent everyone home - everyone but myself. Since my commute was absurdly short, from one side of the downtown to the other, I decided to stay late. On the way home I paused at a Chinese restaurant and found myself the only customer at the buffet. I remember the forlorn look in the waiter's eyes as he was obliged to restock the Szechuan beef for the only idiot out in the storm. Half an hour later, I was back on the road with four blocks to go. I might as well have been driving on a hockey rink with greased tires. The ride was terrifying, and when I finally did reach my dooryard, I slid from one end to the other. Shaking, I stepped out of the car and fell immediately on my tailbone. Inside my apartment, the power was already out.
That is my first memory of the Ice Storm of 1998. On the scale of natural disasters, it was no Hurricane Katrina or Andrew; it wasn't even the worst in Maine history (that would be the '47 wildfires). But it was a calamity most Mainers had never experienced. Roads became impassable with sparking powerlines and iced branches. Trees crashed through rooftops.
But something else also happened. Mainers rose to the occasion. They began looking in on their neighbors and helping out at shelters. Heroic linemen worked days straight to restore order to our surprisingly fragile civilization. If you were anywhere throughout the northeast U.S. or Canada that winter, you probably have similar recollections. It was, in my lifetime, perhaps the truest manifestation of an American civic purpose that has not been seen much since the Second World War. (One of the tragedies of September 11 was that, in its immediate aftermath, the purposelessness of the attack left so many eager to respond but unsure of how to do so. Our better angels were rendered impotent by an elusive evil.) The Ice Storm re-taught Mainers lessons in community that we modern Americans too easily forget.
That is why it's worth remembering ten years later - as a reminder of what it means to be a good neighbor. There's an old Yankee saying about how you can't do anything about the weather. But we can do things for each other.

Reminds one of the scene in Stand By Me where the two boys are arguing about Super Man and Mighty Mouse.
Every single child in Texas in the late forties had to choose between Roy Rogers and Gene Autrey. It was serious business, too. Fist fights and hair pullings were not uncommon.
This fellow needs to read up on his subject. Perhaps a reporter named Kent can offer some insight:"You were the one they used against us, Bruce. The one who played it rough. When the noise started from the Parents´ Groups and the Sub-Committee called us in for questioning -- You were the one who laughed......that scary laugh of yours...´Sure we´re criminals,´ you said. ´We´ve always been criminals. We have to be criminals.´"Frank Miller´s The Dark Knight Returns.

text: Home Culture Zimmerman Trial: Prosecution Scores Prosecutors extracted testimony that Zimmerman profiled and followed the 17-year-old. By: Corey Dade Posted: July 3 2013 9:33 AM 0 Prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda (R) demonstrates a scenario while questioning Chris Serino (Joe Burbank/Getty Images) (The Root) -- If you're keeping score in the second-degree-murder trial of George Zimmerman, mark Tuesday's court proceedings as a narrow victory for the prosecution. The exercise has no bearing on Zimmerman's fate for fatally shooting Florida teen Trayvon Martin, of course. But after a few days of arguments in which defense attorneys neutralized the state's witnesses, prosecutors extracted key testimony that the neighborhood-watch volunteer profiled and followed the 17-year-old with "ill will and spite" -- an element required for a conviction under Florida law. Zimmerman, 29, claims he was attacked by Trayvon, who was unarmed, and shot him in self-defense. Much of the critical testimony came from Chris Serino, the lead Sanford, Fla., police investigator of the shooting. Serino supported the prosecutor's suggestion that Zimmerman profiled Trayvon as a criminal when he described the teen as a "[expletive] punk" to a police dispatcher. Zimmerman also said "these assholes, they always get away." Assistant State Prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda played a recording of Zimmerman's comments from his phone call to the dispatcher in which he reported Trayvon as "suspicious" while walking through a subdivision in Sanford. "If I were to believe that somebody was committing a crime," de la Rionda said to Serino, "could that not be profiling that person?" "It could be construed as such," Serino said. Serino said he found nothing suspicious in Trayvon's behavior that night. Asked by de la Rionda about Zimmerman's use of "[expletive] punk" to refer to Trayvon, Serino replied: "That is ill will and spite." To obtain a conviction for second-degree murder, the prosecution must prove Zimmerman acted with ill will, hatred, a depraved mind, malice or evil intent toward Trayvon. Still, Zimmerman's attorneys continued to skillfully raise doubts about the state's case on Tuesday. They have been especially effective at turning the testimony of state witnesses to their advantage during cross-examination. Page 1 of 3 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

JJ Watt wags his finger and spits on the logo of the team that hung 83 points on his defence

JJ Watt |
Read More NFL news here
Enter JJ Watt. You might recall Watt's gormless face clogging up the airwaves ad-nauseum last week against the Bengals. For whatever reason the TV networks can't get enough of the guys pillowy, vacant face. You might also remember him from last night's game, stealing Dikembe Mutumbo's 'finger wag' after making a tackle on a Patriot's running back. He did this with his team in a serious hole, losing badly and facing elimination from the playoffs.
He wagged his finger despite the fact the defence he is an integral part of has this season conceded a total of 83 points to the team he was waving his finger at.
Read More: Ray Lewis the great illusionist: Ravens linebacker continues to avoid his own past
However, it would appear that's JJ Watt all over. Me first.
He would also appear to be lacking in either class or respect too. Watt is a bit of an overnight sensation, and I imagine most sensible Texan's fans would agree he still has some work to do. The TV networks can force feed us his buffoonish face all they want, Watt made two tackles last night. Two. There's clearly work to be done there. With that in mind, you would imagine Watt would be respectful of an opponent that is obviously streets ahead of his team right now, and has been for the last decade. An opponent that has put up 83 points on his defence this season.
Sadly, not so.
Before the game last night both Houston and Boston reports spotted that JJ Watt marched to the Patriots logo in center field and disrespectfully spat on it, before grinding his spit into the turf with his shoe.
Perhaps worse yet, after the game Watt seemed to be trying to excuse this gormless action as something he does every road game. Sorry, that's supposed to be an excuse? So, it's OK that Watt spits on all his opponent's logos? This pathetic, classless and disrespectful act will stand as the most impactful moment of JJ Watt's postseason. Hopefully he enjoys that fact as he sits at home and watches the rest of the playoffs.
Read More: Say it ain't so Brian -- Coach Kelly set for Philadelphia Eagles?
Perhaps the final word should go to Patriot's linebacker Jerod Mayo, who summed the entire incident up in one concise sentence
"I really don't pay attention to him, I really don't care what he has to say. We're going to continue to work tomorrow, and I don't know what those guys are going to do."
Bye bye, Houston..

Sorry to bust you guys bubbles, But JJ does that at each and every game, home included, it's something he does at midfield before he starts his warming up routine. Before you guys start talking about classless, please research the kind of person this man is, he's an ANGEL and most of the stuff he does, NOBODY else in this league will do. He has basically taken in 3 kids whose parents were killed in an terrible accident and left the 2 boys paralyzed. He makes surprise visits to fans houses, all without the media's attention, he does it because he wants to, and he loves it.

Can't excuse the spitting but it appeared to me the finger wag was a response to the running back grabbing his face mask.

Have to agree with wjb1tex. I was rooting for the Pats all the way, but I saw JJ Watt play a couple of times this season, and he is exceptional as a player. I saw the finger wag and smiled. The spitting incident, if true, is deplorable.
More deplorable is Cormac's fixation on JJ Watt's facial features. Football is focused on personality, taunting, and expressions of superiority. Watt is no worse than many and better than most. The facial characteristics that Cormac decries are nothing more than a game face. Gormless, pillowy, vacant? C'mon, grow up, Cormac.

I agree with everything you say about his classless actions. However to imply that he is not a very good player is way off the mark. He had a remarkable season and any team would love to have him. Including NE.

I understand that making a bed of this type for this price has certain restrictions buuuuuuuuut... The very first time we tried to move it began disintegrating at multiple connections. So it's stuck where it's stuck. I have no idea what it's fate will be when we move. It is attractive enough.
I was hoping for solid wood that was painted black, but that wasn't what I had received. The laminate looking finish also had a few scuffs in it. I did return it.
The materials are a bit cheap to the eye and touch. You must be very diligent when building so as not to strip or crack the wood. I added liquid nails to anything I didn't ever want to take apart again like the drawers. The instructions or not bad until you get to the final assembly of the bed frame. It seems like they ran out of ideas or painted themselves into a corner and just added a step that says "finish". The drawers don't really fit that well and will require some adjusting. It is very stable when assembled. Bed took ~3.5hours to build by myself.
I read the reviews before and was scared to get this bed in. People have said it is impossible to assemble.. its not. If you follow the instructions its simple. You really need two people though. My boyfriend and I assembled this bed in the time it said we would ( i think it was 105 minutes). The drawers took a little longer though. However it was not hard or impossible. Don't let the bad reviews steer you away from buying this bed. It is wonderful once you get it together, it works really well with a memory foam mattress. It took a while to get here thats the only bad thing. My mattress got here a few days after i ordered and this took like 2 weeks. Well worth it!!!
The product purchased was functional, in terms of storage but additional bolts and screws need to be put in the bags because a few werwe missing from mine so i had to substitute with store baught ones, and I do not feel I should have to. The color is good and over all it is a nice comfortable solid frame once assembled.
made out of crap wood! Its already broke and its only been a couple weeks! DON'T WAIST YOUR MONEY
It took my Wife and me (we're 68) 3.5 hours to completely assemble this bed. All the parts were delivered including a few extra fasteners. We did three extra steps to improve the product: 1. We glued the base of the draws in the slots 2. We screwed the slats to the center sections ( this maintained the alignment of the draw guides) 3. Since the bed is on a hard wood floor, we added felt sliders to the feet, including the side and center sections to ease moving which my wife can do by herself We are well satisfied with the value for money and the look of the bed.
Lot of work to put together, but it looks great! Very sturdy and attractive. Great storage.
After owning this bed for only a short period of time, the screws are no longer staying in the good, the pressed wood around some of the largest screws is crumbling. You can no longer put any wright on the foot of the bed because the piece that connects it to the part the holds the mattress pops out of place. A bed frame should last years not months.
I did tons of searching for platform beds because I really wanted one. The cheapest I found (good quality one) was around $1500.00. Not only was the quality of this platform fantastic, but I found one similar at another store for $1200.00. I paid less and got almost the same platform. As for putting it together ... I'm happy to say that i did get all the parts and pieces to put it together. It did take me over 4 hours to put together, but I will admit it took me that long because I attempted this feat after having a few glasses of wine. Looking back, it should have only taken me about half the time ... maybe less. I LOVE this platform bed and the mattress (which I also got from overstock) i purchased fits in it perfectly, and I don't need any box springs. I HIGHLY recommend this item!
