Arizona Cardinals
'Same Old Cardinals' are dead; 'Same Old Cardinals Fans' should be next
Look beyond the 5-11 record, the messy quarterback situation and the fact that the Cardinals finished in last place in the NFC West.
Disregard Arizona's top-10 draft pick, anemic running game and sieve of an offensive line.
The "Same Old Cardinals" as we knew them are dead, a thing of the past.
Now if only the "Same Old Cardinals Fans" would go with them.
"I think that when you look at the last three seasons, particularly the last two seasons, our defense has performed at a very high level," Cardinals president Michael Bidwill said Monday. "Our offense seemed to struggle. We needed to focus on improving our offense, and I just didn't feel like where things stood that the course that we were on was the way to keep going."
Bidwill continued.
"So I felt like it was time to make a change. When you look at the last three seasons, we didn't have a winning season in any of those three seasons. Of the 48 games, we won 18, and only four of those games were on the road."
Pretty compelling reasons for a change to be made, right? The idea in the NFL is, after all, to win games, and the Whisenhunt-led Cardinals were clearly not doing that.
Even so there were -- and still are -- many who feel like Bidwill made a mistake, that canning the most successful coach in franchise history will set the team back.
You won't be able to do better than Whisenhunt.
Can't do better than a coach with a 45-51 record who has posted just two winning seasons in six tries? I certainly hope the Cardinals can, and at the very least they should try to do better.
I'm OK with the move if they have an actual plan in place.
Teams do not generally fire coaches and soon after come to the realization that they now have to replace him. Bidwill said he had been thinking about making this move for a while, so it stands to reason he not only had a list of candidates he wanted to speak with, but a good idea about whether or not they would be interested in the job.
Whisenhunt was not the problem, this won't help.
This is debatable, as the coach had nothing to do with the injuries that besieged his team but had everything to do with the players on the roster. Was Whisenhunt the coach sabotaged by Whisenhunt the talent evaluator? Perhaps, but at the end of the day they are the same person, and the latter certainly had to go.
By making the move, Bidwill took another step toward proving he is not running a "cheap" organization. Many theorized the Cardinals would keep Whisenhunt around because they did not want to pay both him and a new coach next season, which is something that would have fit right along with how the franchise used to be run.
But that is not the case anymore.
"I think when you look back at the opportunity that we had to get to the Super Bowl, that is something that I want to get back to," Bidwill said. "I want to get back to winning football. It is a lot more fun to be winning football games and have all that excitement around this organization."
That makes a lot of sense, doesn't it?
Yet, there is a contingent of folks who still believe either believe the Cardinals can't be successful, don't don't know how to be successful or don't want to be successful.
Those folks can't seem to let go of what the Cardinals once were. Bidwill has for the most part lived up to the promise he made back in the day that a new stadium would lead to a new Arizona Cardinals franchise, and now simply being mediocre or competitive is not enough.
The Cardinals weren't even that of late.
The Cardinals demand better, and they weren't getting it.
And whether they give the job to Andy Reid, Ray Horton, Mike McCoy or any one of the candidates available, all that matters is they decided the status quo, which was a 5-11 season that included a nine-game losing streak, was not acceptable. So they made a change.
It's the type of thing a team that cares about winning first would do.
Ladies and gentlemen, these are your Arizona Cardinals.

I already had one of the 3 tiered units and loved it but needed more growing space so got the 2 tiered.
They have improved the light chains for raising and lowering the grow lights (used to slip) so it is even better now. After having both ..I prefer the 3 tier and have gotten yet another one ! They are great for starting seedlings for the garden...love them.

Best Uses
I have purchased two of the 3 tier sun lites and now this 2 tier. It has all the same wonderful features as the 3 tier but seems a bit too low for me. Functionality is just as good though so.. .the height is a personal preference and does not affect the greatness as a plant starter..

Tuscarawas News Detail
School of Theatre and Dance Presents Annual Student Theatre FestivalPosted Apr. 10, 2013
Kent State University's School of Theatre and Dance presents the Student Theatre Festival April 12 through 14 in the Erdmann-Zucchero Theatre in the Roe Green Center of the Music and Speech Building. The Music and Speech Building is located at 1325 Theatre Drive.
Admission is free for the Student Theatre Festival. Performances are Fri., April 12 and Sat., April 13 at 8 pm and Sun., April 14 at 2 p.m.
The Student Theatre Festival will feature works by three students, all three of which will be presented at each date of the festival.
Senior theatre studies major Chase Ziegler has two pieces in the festival: "Letters From a Friend" and "Dr. Albert Snorkle's Guide to Social Successes and Various Other Topics." The first is a short, one-person piece about finding a box of things left behind from a friend who has passed away. His second piece is less serious: "Dr. Albert Snorkle" is a satire on self-help television programs. Ziegler wrote and directed both pieces.
Ziegler explained that the process of directing ones peers makes the Student Theatre Festival experience unique. "You have to direct them differently than you would someone much younger or older than you and I think it makes for a very fun environment," he said.
Junior communications major Zach Griffin will direct two pieces: "Hotline" by Demetri Martin and "The Story of My Pekinese," an excerpt from the novel "House of Leaves" by Mark Z. Danielewski performed as a monologue. Cole Mazaher, sophomore theatre studies major, will perform in "The Story of My Pekinese." Griffin describes the story as "dark, introspective, ironic, humorous and enthralling."
"Hotline" is a piece about a man who feels awkward and lonely at a party and calls a hotline to be coached through the situation. Junior theatre studies major Emily Schrader and senior theatre studies major Joe Adams will perform the humorous piece.
"They both have great comedic sensibilities, and the conversation between them just falls apart. It's a short burst of absurd and energy," Griffin said.
The Student Theatre Festival provides students with a unique opportunity to present new ideas to a receptive audience in an intimate venue.
"I just think it's a good thing because it gives students with true original ideas and concepts a chance to put their work in front of an audience," Ziegler said. "The main stage shows are fantastic, but there is something great about the intimacy and genuineness of doing a show in the E-Z Blackbox."

An Aiken man has died in a single-car accident on Outing Club Road early Saturday morning after midnight.
The victim was identified as Ivory A. Kirkland Jr., 37, said Aiken County coroner Tim Carlton.
No one witnessed the accident, which appears to have occurred about 12:30 a.m. At about 1:45 a.m. a motorist reported the overturned vehicle near 200 Outing Club Road, which is located off Vaucluse Road. Kirkland lived on Outing Club Road, Carleton said.
The coroner said the vehicle is a Saturn four-door sedan, bearing a Georgia license plate. It appeared to have been traveling north when it left the highway and struck a drainage culvert on the right side of the road. The vehicle overturned, partially ejecting the driver - the only known occupant.
This the seventh fatal crash in Aiken County in 2013, Carlton said in a press release. His office and the S.C. Highway Patrol are investigating the circumstances of the accident. Toxicology results are pending.

The Milford CT branch of Uncle Bob's Storage is OFF THE CHARTS wonderful. The quality of the facility is beyond any storage company I've ever dealt with. It's like a fine hotel for my stuff. It's better than some apartments I've lived in! (lol.) It seems very secure and extremely clean. The staff were very nice and signing up took less time than I expected. The only not-perfect thing I noticed was that the hours of access are more limited than other places I've rented from, but overall the benefits far far outweigh this.Shelly from New Haven, CT

I recently had a problem of losing my car keys while at my storage location. Julio and Leo went above and beyond the 'call of duty' to make sure they could help me. Julio took his own personal time to help me locate my other set of keys. And, they contacted me within 2 days to let me know they found the lost set. This saved me $$$ and the frustrating time to get another set of specialized car keys. Throughout this process, they remained professional, courteous and looked for different options to solve what was my accidental problem. I would recommend this location and these gents to everyone! Thank you!Martha from Milford, CT

Those attending filled the Board conference room spilled into the hallway and out into the parking lot.
Varsity Jones County High School football players filled the center of the room on both sides of the conference room table in support of an assistant coach who was among nine teachers told that their contracts would not be renewed next year because their positions were being eliminated.
The players were courteous and respectful while in the boardroom, but that was not the case for all of the adults in the room.
The teachers involved were informed of the cutbacks by their respective principals March 4. School Superintendent Jim LeBrun said in an interview March 11 that the notices were given at that time because he felt compelled to inform those teachers first of the situation.
"We are going to give out contracts in the next couple of weeks," he said.
None of the non-renewals have been voted on by the Board of Education members, and until that happens, nothing is official. The process of notifying the employees first seems backward, but LeBrun said that is the way it is always done.
"Any given month personnel matters are taken to the Board," he said.
Eight teachers found out they would not be renewed because of performance, and nine were told their positions were not expected to be around next year due to continued reduction in funds from the state.
"We can enact a reduction of force (RIF) at any time, but we have not done that. Our intent was for the notices to be given to the newer, non-tenured teachers," LeBrun said.
The superintendent said he had met previously with the principals about the non-renewals. He said the principals were given suggestions of positions to be eliminated, but they were allowed to make the decisions.
"What we are saying with those notices is that, as of today, we can't fund those positions," he said.
A loosening of the number of students in classrooms in kindergarten through the eighth grade by the state will allow the realignment of teachers in those grades. LeBrun said the Jones County System has 470 certified personnel. The recommendation he will take to the Board members includes 13.5 positions eliminated due to attrition and 4.5 because of transfers.
The Board approved the loss of three positions in the central office at their March 10 meeting.
The superintendent said out of 140 school level positions including 94 teachers that have been added since 2005, four have been added to the central office. He said the school system has three assistant superintendents.
LeBrun disagreed with figures on a website brought up in the meeting that states he received a 13 percent raise last year. A document he released this week shows he has received a total raise of 12 percent in three increments over five years. His largest increase was 6 percent received in 2007.
He said the Board is looking at all options for reducing expenses, including furlough days, reducing local supplements, instructional coaches, nurses, field trips, realignment of personnel, and the reduction of the number of retired teachers returned to the classroom.
"We are cutting everywhere. The teachers were last," he said.
Budget information
During a budget review report at last week's meeting, he said the projected loss of state funding this year is $1,774,930 and $3,310,007 for 2010. LeBrun said he has hope that the funds from the federal stimulus package could offset some of the losses from the state.
"Anytime you get federal money, stipulations are attached, but we are more than willing to work with that," he said.
Jones County currently fully funds 54 teaching positions, and with the decrease in funds from the state, that number will have to rise.
One of the budget items being pointed out by protesters is an energy efficiency program. LeBrun said the program initiated last year is guaranteed to pay for itself, and, according to its contract, cannot cost more to operate than the savings the school system receives. Currently the energy savings have been 17.75 percent.
The superintendent said he knew more people than usual would be at last week's Board meeting, but he had no inclination it would be hundreds.
"One person called to be on the agenda. We certainly didn't expect the entire football team, their parents, and extended family," he said. "But we did the best we could sharing our status. We plan to post that information on the website and keep it updated."
LeBrun said it is frustrating because someone outside the county controls such a large part of the school system's revenue.
"We are still working on a way to find a way out of the other end of it," he commented.
The county's one-cent sales tax is funding the building of the new school but by law cannot be used to pay salaries or the cost of maintenance of day-to-day operation of the system. LeBrun said the system did use SPLOST funds this year to purchase textbooks, buses, and to upgrade technology with computers, which may be categorized as capital outlay.
Meeting begins
The boardroom was overflowing with people 30 minutes before the March 10 meeting began. It was warm and stuffy because of the sheer number of people crowded into the small space, and tempers of the people in the audience appeared to rise with the heat.
Board Chairman Ted Stone spoke to the crowd before opening the meeting. He began by explaining the Board of Education has not met about the teacher notices, and he talked about the funding cuts the Jones County system has received from the state.
He noted that in addition to the current cuts, the system's funding has been cut over $5 million over the past five years.
"Every board in the state is having the same problem. We are fortunate to be in as good shape as we are," Stone said. "We have some of the best teachers in the state. We don't hire teachers to fire them."
He said the new elementary school will create a need for some new teachers, but the majority of the teachers will be transferred from other schools.
"The Board has received some bashing lately, but we have a good Board and I am proud of it," he stated.
Stone said the notices are still in process, and after the March 30 work session, he believes the public will be pleased with what happens. He said Board of Education money comes from the property owners, and the re-evaluation caps being considered by the state legislature will reduce income.
"No one understands but it's a shame that counties have to make their budgets before the state, so we are guessing how much money we are going to get," Stone said. "We have a little money in the bank and are paying our bills. We are all here together to do one thing: educate our children."
The chairman said he wished the people at the meeting would come every month.
"We'd meet in a football field if we have to," he added.
Stone lobbies federal legislators and said he is pleading for more flexibility. He has been in Washington with U.S. senators and Congressman Jim Marshall.
"Marshall voted in our favor, but the senators voted the other way. We ask them not to tie our hands. Nine percent of our budget comes from them, and it is used for school nutrition and special education," he said.
According to Stone, the staffing situation remains a work in progress.
"We are still trying to tweak it so we don't lose more of our people. We would like to hire them back in different areas, but right now we can't," he said.
Stone emphasized to the crowd several times that the notices received by the teachers were not official until voted upon by the Board of Education.
Board member Deloras Moon said the Board of Education has been letting people know about the budget cuts for years.
"Now everyone is catching on," she said. "It hasn't been stressful and hasn't been painful. Now it is."
Audience input
The wife of an affected coach asked Board members about the football program. She said her family moved to Jones County at the request of LeBrun. The superintendent replied that, when looking at possible cuts, "there were no sacred cows."
"We looked at the budget," he said.
Tracy Gattie was the one parent who asked to speak at the meeting. She said she was at the meeting in support of assistant coach Lee Hamner, who is a teacher at the Ninth Grade Academy, but she would be glad to also speak for any of the teachers.
Gattie gave Board members a printed statement and read it to them. She talked about the nutrition and weight-lifting program Hamner has created for the students and gave a personal testimony about what the program has meant to her son.
The mother pointed out that in an email sent by LeBrun he stated that the school system has not enacted a RIF policy and she wanted to know if that was a lie.
She asked why Hamner was being asked to resign because his performance reviews have been perfect. She also asked why he was not allowed to apply for an available coaching position at the high school.
Gattie pointed out parents elected the school Board members and pay their salaries.
"Lee Hamner is our employee, and we vote to keep him. You have the final decision, and I hope and pray you make the right one," she said.
LeBrun stated that the school system has not enacted an RIF policy. He said the policy allows for a restructuring of a personnel plan.
"We are not there, and I hope we never get there," he said.
The superintendent said he is trying to explain that the school system is simply trying to balance its budget and pay its bills. He agreed that the football coaching staff has come a long way, but when making cuts, teachers are considered equally.
"Coaches are teachers first," he stated.
LeBrun said he would meet with NGA principal Clinton Burston and discuss the situation.
Parent Thomas White said the football program is moving forward.
"If you do what you're talking about here, you're going to cut the head off the program and the promises the county made to these coaches are not being fulfilled. If certain coaches don't come back, it will kill the program," White said.
Gattie said she is concerned because several football players said they will not play next year. She said the players are not only doing well on the football field but are also excelling in the classroom.
"They are pouring their heart and soul into their classes," she said.
Teacher Ginger Bailey objected to the superintendent not coming with her principal to tell her that her job was being cut.
"I can take the cut, but I need to know you care. I've taught for 23 years," she said.
A few left the meeting as the agenda was followed, but many were not detoured by the heat or lack of seating and stayed until Board members went into closed session and after.
Before the football players left, Stone had a word of encouragement for them.
"It's an honor to have you here, and we appreciate what you do. We know it's hard work. You guys look like a football team when you are not even playing," he said.
LeBrun said the Board of Education will conduct a budget work session March 30 at 6:00 p.m. to discuss all scenarios and possibilities in order to absorb the more than $3 million in cuts from state funding and to develop a feasible budget for the 2009-2010 school year. The meeting will be held in the W.E. Knox Civic Center.

In this blog post, I'm going to discuss disaster recovery. After superstorm Sandy on the East Coast, there were people without power weeks after the storm. Data centers were affected by the storm as well. And although GoGrid's East Coast data center didn't experience an outage, some providers did. So it is timely to consider geographically redundant solutions rather than wait for the next superstorm.
Geographic Redundancy
There are three basic strategies you can implement today on GoGrid to make your application better able to recover from a data center outage: cold standby, warm standby, and full geographic-redundancy with multiple active data centers. Let's start off with a definition:
Redundancy: (noun) the ability of an application or system to resist the failure of one or more constituent parts, or recover quickly from such failure.
Systems administration and IT management boils down to that proverbial 3:00am phone call. Your application is down. How do you respond? Having the proper plan and appropriate recovery assets in place is the key to surviving this all-too-real scenario. How current are your backups? Do you have standby servers already in place? If not, how quickly can you bring new ones online?
It's pretty standard to have offsite backups. If the offsite backups are in a secondary data center, they can be used to springboard reconstituting your application. GoGrid offers two products that make this process easy to implement: (more…) «You Don't Need a Superstorm: Disaster Recovery Basics»

Your claim is so false it's blatant slandering and lying.

GW2= Box, CS

Well, in this game maybe they can, but usually everyone likes to have their own style when it comes to in-game clothing. We have heard lots about how many pieces of clothing there are in the game, so everyone will be able to look the way they want to, but we still haven't heard how we can get hold of them. It seems like we won't just be able to go shopping for them right away either:
"Some of the clothes are purchasable from vendors, some are available in the item shop, but most of it is reward based. One thing I'm particularly excited about is the template deck outfits. Template decks are a set of powers that enables the player to fulfill a certain role, and this is comparable to Magic the Gatherings starter decks. On completion of any of these templates the player is given an outfit that reflects what that deck is. So for instance if a player completes the Ninja deck, he or she is given a Ninja costume. And all of the templates are faction specific, meaning that there will be different outfits for Templars, Illuminati or Dragon!"
Just play the game and you will be rewarded with the clothes you envy so much. If you don't like it don't pay, if it bothers you that much don't play. We all have choices.

They have this way of changing how the game is played and developed in small but noticable ways. Anyone who played EQ2 and paid attention during the cash shop transistion could see what a convinence cash shop did to gear drops and appearance over time. SOE recycles art/models like crazy on gear that drops in game and the only unique stuff is in the cash shop. Everything I have seen so far tells me TSW is the same only more so since it's being designed from day one that way.
Is the sub fee + item shop keeping anyone away?
Yes ,far far away.

Im staying away of this game because i had enough of sub based games. I prefer F2P (and B2P) as long as its not P2W. IM tired of buying sub based games only to play the first free month (TSW is no exception). I do like TSW (except for the clunktastic combat that need work), and i want to play it but ill wait longer. The game will launch with lifetime sub and cash shop so if the game flops they will be ready to make it F2P like AoC did. When that happens, ill be waiting to make my move. If it does well and i hope to does, then ill either buy when they make discounts or just play other games. Just because i like a game im not going to pay more than whats worth IMO

I wouldn't think twice about spending real cash for some cosmetic benefit by way of supporting a F2P game but the subscription +cash shop, that is putting me off a bit. I've bought GW2 and will probably spend a few £ each month on nonsense just to feel warm inside :) - assuming I'm enjoying the game.
In fact I'd go as far as saying that I think I'm more likely to quit a sub game after a couple of bad nights play than I would a F2P game. Bad nights on a F2P (friends don't log on, get into a sh***y PUG etc etc) so what? Take a break, check back next week. Bad nights on a sub game - suddenly you are paying for something you don't enjoy. Cancel your account, with the full intention of reinstating it in a week or two. Couple of weeks later, delete off the hard drive as you can't be asked with reinstating the account and spending a months sub to find out if you still enjoy it.
Maybe that's just me though - but that's exactly what I have done with WoW, Rift and SWTOR in the past, and once those games get deleted off the drive, I'm just never gonna be bothered to redownload them.

No the ability to solo everything except the instances is keeping me away, which sucks because I love the setting and don't even mind the combat. This design of making a game soloable from start to level cap is getting old. Some good games like Rift and not so great like SWTOR are completely ruined with the solo to cap systems and sadly Secret World seems to be the same thing. Not to mention you can probably do it in two weeks or less like all games seem to be these days. So went back to EQ and thinking of making a run at DAoC soon.

I'd say it's more the subscription fee than anything, I haven't played a game in quite a while that I believed was deserving of a subscription fee. maybe if TSW updates and adds content as quickly as Trion does with Rift.

Definitely keeping me away.
Only stupid people dont understand why a game with a subscription shouldnt also have a cash shop. Has nothing to do with how minor the items are in the shop.

For now it doesn't bother me really - the game seems intresting enough to give it a try and I assume that I will play it 20+ h in the first month. Hence I don't see the money being wasted for the 'box'. If I feel I need to buy things in the cash shop to enjoy the game properly I would likely cancel my account. But from what I read they have no intention to do so and even the F2P model of AoC doesn't feature any P2W items. I don't care if there are items that would allow players to progress faster and reach 'end game' - if I need to buy items to be successful in the 'endgame' it's an absolut no for my part however.
If the game makes me want to play the game at least once per week for an evening or two + the developers add content on a regular basis I don't mind the subscription fee either - it's still fairly cheap evening entertainment compared to almost everything else.

I agree with Rhowin.
I've played games with a cash shop and sub fee.
Both went f2p, but I still don't use the cash shop. (AoC and DCUO)

You won't be close to getting all the abilities for your character either.
If you "do" TSW in two weeks you are skipping a load of content and only playing parts of the game.

This comes up for pretty much every game now. Since most successful MMO's require a sub, and have for well over a decade, no, that won't keep me away. People call too many games F2P. Many have a restricted version that requires cash payments to upgrade aspects on an individual basis. GW1 was one of the few successful, "real" F2P games, but I didn't really like it that much. Since a good MMO will likely prevent me from buying other games, they usually save me money. The item shop is not that big of a deal. Many other games have impplemented them, and despite the doomsayers claiming disaster if a cash shop was implemented, most people simply didn't care, and nothing changed.
I do think it would be pretty slimey if the only cool looking clothing items were cash only. Most of the items are supposed to be reward items and sold in-game by vendors. Cash shops should only contain a handful of cosmetic items. No matter the case, I will never pay cash for a cosmetic item. I'll be fine with whatever is in game. If they are smart they will do it similar to games like EQ2, where you virtual cash for the item shop, as customer loyalty rewards. Some each month, and a bigger chunk if you buy an expansion. That would at least give people the opportunity to get some of those items without having to payout real cash.

I understand that, as a personal preference, but being soloable was what made WoW so popular, and pretty much every game since has followed suit. At this point, a grouping only game would be nothing more than a niche game. Time is valuable, and many people don't want to have to spend most of their game time trying to find a group, with nothing to do but sit around waiting. Or they may not have the ability to give the game their entire focus, so they solo and take frequent breaks while they are doing other things. You may not like it, but most people want to be able to solo when they want, and group when they want.

On topic: I am going to ignore the cash shop and pretend it doesn't exist.
Regarding the grouping: I talked to two friends of mine that had played the open beta in a duo. One of them liked the help he got solving investigation quests, while they other guy liked the help he got in combat. If you group up you can take on harder content than you could alone, die less often be social at the same time. I don't see why they need to add any more incentives to grouping up than that.

So I'm gonna say "I told you so" now for when someone posts that they got all the Abilities and have done all the content in less than a month. Don't tell me it won't happen because it has happened in every MMO since WoW that I have tried and I promise that is almost all of them. Designers don't seem to design games with longevity in mind anymore. Hurry up and get to cap so you can grind gear or some version of a token system to get raid gear. Blah Blah Blah it's getting old. There needs to be a revolution and it will happen eventually but the question is can I stand the genre until it happens. I will do my best to get as much fun out of these games as I can but I have stopped looking at games for a long term fix. Now I pretty much know that even at my alt. making casual pace I can't seem to get more than 6 months out of a MMO anymore.
I understand that there is a desire by gamers for a quick fix and soloing makes that possible, no matter what but, does that mean we have to be able to solo the whole game? The only content that requires grouping at all anymore is Instance dungeons and Raiding. For me that is really a small portion of the game, or atleast is should be. Sitting in instanced area's should be a small part of the game compared to the WORLD or WORLDS outside of it. Look at the size of the world compared to the size of the instances and raids. It's became a lobby system and I want my worlds back. If that makes my wishes a niche game then at least give us our niche, that's really all I'm asking. I know that is very unlikely because it's really about making money and that's all it's about anymore, not creating living breathing worlds, but making lobby's to sit in so we can do our 30-60 minute chunks of content on a treadmill to collect little tokens or points or whatever the widget is to get out uber grearz.

Yes, the cash shop is keeping me far far away. I went from being very interested in the game and it being a definate purchase, to having no interest other than a morbid curiosity in seeing how the game pans out.
For the record, it was the fact that funcom stated the ingame cash store would be 'mostly' convenience that bothered me and as far as I know they have never gone on to clarify what that means. Does it mean the ingame store will be 99% clothes and 1% 'I Win' potions, or do they have something else up there sleeves ? Regardless, I just don't like cash shops in games at all, I've no problem spending a load of money for a good game, just not via an ingame store that would encourage game development by suits looking at financial spreadsheets rather than devs developing content for fun.
Also, these games have a horrible habit of just devolving to the point where all new content gets pushed out via the ingame store like in EQ2, just makes me sick when they could be putting these items in the game with some great quest or game mechanic wrapped around it. Instead these companies seem intent on going the 'swipe and loot, swipe and loot' route, It's like the ultimate grind with your credit card as the weapon, lol.

To The Editor:
This letter is in response to Mr. Taylor's letter in The Valley Reporter issue of August 23, 2007.
Mr. Taylor, you are absolutely correct in saying that I picked on Boston...this is why.
I love Boston, having worked there for many years. Because of that, I could envision a lovely white-walled apartment say at Lewis Wharf (which I helped develop with architect extraodinaire Carl Koch) and on which
would hang these lovely pieces of folk art...the moose signs.
I did not intend to suggest that persons from the great state of Massachusetts were thieves.
Now I have perhaps committed another gaff...inasmuch as I ignore NY, NJ, wherever in the country that has lovely apartments and homes by saying I envision Boston...it's only because I know the town.
As to putting up a signpost along the road (Route 100) the highway department doesn't think that's such a good idea. It was tried once and they (the highway department) removed it....alas.
The sign in question was carefully screwed into the tree which shouldn't have hurt the tree, but tearing the sign off did.
So, I apologize for any hurt feelings and for NOT being politically, geographically, whatever correct. This is the first time I've been called a "bigot" so guess I'd better watch my mouth in the future.
And, by the way, I am not angry; I am, as I said, "dismayed." And yet another "and" -- I , too, am a flatlander even though I've lived here for many years...as it's said hereabouts, "Just because a cat has kittens in the oven don't mean they're biscuits."
Love and kisses.

TEST DRIVE: Inhabitat Zips Around Town in the Manual Transmission Honda CRZ Sport Hybrid
How sporty is Sport mode, really? We're so glad you asked. It's surprisingly powerful, actually–even coltish. The CRZ feels a bit restrained in ECON mode, though not nearly as much as in other Honda hybrids, and Normal mode gives it as much zip as a regular sporty Honda coupe. Push the Sport button, and suddenly the car wants to leap out of the gate at every gear change, straining against the clutch. Yes, really.
Drawbacks? Well, those two seats limit the car's usefulness to anyone other than singles with a date in tow. That keeps the weight down to offer you this performance, however. Also less than stellar is the gas mileage, which averages 40 mpg but quickly rises or plummets on your decision to drive in Normal or Sport mode. You will have to be careful to rein this little beast in, if you're lucky enough to get one. We're thrilled Honda has proved hybrids can be sporty and fun to drive, and done it in such a nice little package. Click through our gallery below to see more details on the inside of this dark horse hybrid.

Mountaineers Top Marshall at Capital Classic
CHARLESTON, W.Va.– True freshman and player of the game Bria Holmes used a game-leading 15 points to lift the West Virginia women's basketball team to a 64-48 victory over Marshall Tuesday in the Chesapeake Energy Capital Classic game held at the Charleston Civic Center.
"Give Marshall credit, they played hard," coach Mike Carey said. "Bria Holmes hit some shots and did some good things. Marshall played harder."
Trailing 12-2 in the opening six minutes, the Thundering Herd (4-4) never let up, as they cut the deficit to only one point, twice, by the 8:36 mark in the first half. Holmes recorded 13 points from that point into halftime to give the Mountaineers (5-2) a 35-23 advantage at the break. Marshall was never able to cut the lead to single digits as WVU sealed its eighth consecutive win over the Herd.
Holmes' point total was her second game in double figures this season and a career best. The New Haven, Conn., native, recorded a pair of threes, to go along with five rebounds, two blocks and two steals. Behind Holmes, senior Ayana Dunning added 13 points and six rebounds.
As the Mountaineers' leading rebounder, sophomore Crystal Leary recorded the first double-double of her career with a career-best 12 points and 11 rebounds. Leary also had a career-best five steals and two assists in the win.
"Crystal plays hard and she plays hard every game," Carey said. "I told her after the game I wish I could get everybody to play as hard as her."
With starting point guard Linda Stepney sidelined in the opening minutes, junior Brooke Hampton recorded six points, all from beyond the arc, and a season-high seven assists.
Both teams were about even from the field, with Marshall shooting 34.5 percent (19-55) and WVU tacking on five more field goals at 35.3 percent (24-68). Each team hit five 3-pointers, while the Mountaineers used 11-of-16 (68.8%) from the free throw line, and Marshall converted only 5-of-17 (29.4%) from the charity stripe.
The Mountaineers forced 26 Herd turnovers, partially attributed to 14 team steals. WVU had the advantage in rebounding 48-41.
Marshall was led in scoring by Leandra King, who was named Marshall's player of the game, with 10 points and followed by Norrisha Victrum with nine points. Chukwuka Ezeigbo led Marshall in rebounding with eight boards.
WVU returns home to Morgantown for a 7:30 p.m. matchup with St. Bonaventure on Saturday, Dec. 8 at the WVU Coliseum.

Gold is a funny thing.
It will drive a human being to live far out on a desolate, arid plateau baked by summer heat, frozen by zero degree winter temperatures and blown apart from vicious blizzards and 100+ mph winds. Keeping warm means lighting a fire with expensive, imported lumber and, due to the gold's remote location, probably everything (food, liquor, clothing, wood) has to be brought in over a long, dusty trail, making the camp one of the most expensive and dreariest places to live.
All this for an opportunity to strike, gamble, or steal it rich.
Bodie, California started out pretty much like most mining towns. In 1859, a prospecting group that included former New York State resident, W.S. Bodey, found gold in the desolate California wastelands east of Tioga Pass.
By 1876, 30 miners were living in the Bodie mining camp. Four years later, there were 10,000.
Unfortunately, W.S. Bodey never realized the potential of his little mining site as in 1860, he was caught in a blizzard while getting supplies from Mono City, 26 miles away. However, from 1877 to the late 1880s, the town boomed and predictions of it being the next Comstock Lode ran rampant. Yet where Comstock produced almost $400 million in gold and silver ore, Bodie was only able to produce approximately 8% of that payload, or $34 million. Nonetheless, the town did its best to keep up other appearances where rowdy mining life was concerned.
The red light district, complete with brothels, opium and gambling dens, was found at the north end of town and at one time there were approximately 65 saloons to choose from. With nowhere else to go after a hard day's work but the saloons and brothels, it's little wonder at least one killing per day was estimated. As a result, the cemetery quickly became filled up with markers commemorating fatal gun, knife or fistfights.
Unfortunately, few of these wooden markers have survived over the decades and those that remain, are mostly stone memorials. Interestingly enough, while Bodie had its own Chinatown, few Chinese, were buried here. Instead, their remains were shipped back to China as soon as possible to be joined with family ancestors on native soil.
One marker seen near the cemetery is dedicated to Rosa May. Rosa May was a prostitute who allegedly helped nurse the sick miners during an epidemic but her line of work did not allow for a burial inside the cemetery gates.
Another sad story concerns Lottie and Eli Johl.
Lottie worked at one of the Bodie brothels and Eli was the town butcher. They fell in love and eventually married, much to proper society's dismay. As a result, Lottie was never accepted into 'normal' social circles and the two lived a comfortable but lonely life without friends on the edge of town. After her death, she was allowed a burial just inside the cemetery gates and Eli built her a magnificent memorial which he decorated in her honor each Memorial Day.
Eventually, as the town slipped further into decline, Eli made the hard decision to move away, leaving his Lottie behind. By 1921, there were 31 people living in Bodie.
By 1940, only 20 remained.
In 1961, the town was designated a National Landmark and in 1962, it became Bodie Historic State Park. During the summer, thousands will make the difficult drive in to visit, making it one of the most well-known ghost towns in the country.
Update: Due to the 2009 California budgetary problems, Bodie is just one of the many state parks scheduled to close and be placed under caretaker status although it appears no date for formal closure has been officially announced on the State Park site.
For a very good idea of just how long it takes to drive from Interstate 395 to Bodie and to understand why the route is typically closed in winter, check out this You Tube video.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. – The New Mexico State baseball team used seven pitchers to defeat the Texas Tech 7-6 as junior Jory Goldstrom hit a walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth to bring in senior Kyle Phillips, Monday, March 25.
After junior right-hander Christopher Bradley sat down three of the four batters he faced in the top of the ninth, and Phillips led-off the bottom of the inning by being hit by a pitch. Phillips advanced over to second base when junior Taylor Noyer tallied a sac-bunt before scoring the winning run.
Bradley earned the win and is now 2-3 on the year and now has 24 strikeouts in 25.2 innings of play, while Goldstrom was stellar at the dish going 4-of-4 with a walk and three RBI's. Phillips was also clutch for his team on Monday night marking a 3-of-4 night with four of the Aggie runs.
NM State was down 6-4 heading into the eighth inning when senior Parker Hipp tied the game on a RBI single up the middle that brought in pinch runner Brandon Cooper. It was junior Tanner Rust who got the Aggies to within one run as he also singled just before Hipp.
The Aggies took a 2-1 lead after two innings but Texas Tech tied it up in the top of the third and took a 4-3 lead after four complete innings. NM State had a chance to take a lead in the bottom of the fourth but left four runners aboard as the TTU left fielder robbed Hipp of a base hit.
Sophomore Trey Higginbotham started the game and went 3.2 inning striking out four batters, while giving up four runs, three of them earned. The pitching staff totaled 12 K's on the night while the Red Raiders marked only six against NM State.
The Aggies head back into Western Athletic Conference play taking on CSU Bakersfield in a three-game road series starting Thursday, March 28 at 7:00 p.m. (MT).

Frequently, at each Christmas season's end, I hear people say, "Next year, I'm not going to do all this running around and extra spending. Christmas is getting too exhausting!"
My silent reply is, "Speak into the microphone. I want to record this as a reminder for next year."
Though some seasonal preparations can be important, I also believe they can be huge distractions. These kinds of preparations — the weeks that go into Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Eve party planning — can be downright exhausting.
Moreover, they cause us to miss another aspect of preparation that is infinitely more important.
Yes, we are to prepare our minds and hearts. Not for Santa Claus, not for Christmas Day and not for the most fashionable New Year's Eve party.
Rather, we should prepare our minds and hearts for eternal matters.
The scripture readings for the Sundays in Advent all follow a pattern: preparing for the Son of God's return, often called the Second Coming.
We don't talk much about that eventuality, but God has promised it will happen when we least expect it.
Jesus talks about it coming unannounced like a thief in the night. He describes it as a bridegroom arriving unannounced, saying those who are ready will go with him, and those who are not will be left behind.
No one knows the day or the hour. Jesus said that he himself doesn't know the day or the hour.
I shake my head at the arrogance and pride of men and women who attempt to predict when certain milestones like the end of the world — Dec. 21 passed uneventfully — and the Second Coming will take place.
If Jesus doesn't know, how do people think they can outsmart God by figuring out His plan?
Jesus says to watch for the signs, not to predict.
As we watch for the signs, we must prepare ourselves to be ready to go at a moment's notice.
Prepare your heart and mind as we approach 2013.
Focus on things eternal more than you focus on things temporary.
Make time each day — even if it is a few minutes — to think about your spiritual health, your state of mind and heart. If you find your spirit dragging, it will be time to stop what you are doing and regenerate your soul.
Find a place to worship. Find a place that will help you focus on God. Ask God to give you the kind of insights that will help you properly prepare — not only for 2013, but also for the fulfillment of God's promises.
The Rev. Mark Broadhead is pastor at Laurel Hill Presbyterian Church and First Presbyterian Church of Crestview.

Thunder in the Vicinity
Wind: 3 mph
On Friday, August 30, hundreds of bicyclists clad in spandex and streamlined helmets will descend on The Valley and ascend its many hills as part of the four-day Green Mountain Stage Race.
About 500 riders have registered for the race so far, but "people are procrastinating," race organizer Gary Kessler said, and he expects about 700 riders the weekend of the race.
New this year is an extra 35-mile loop off the Huntington side of the Appalachian Gap for the men's pro 1 and 2 categories during the Sunday's race. "It's an extra 35 miles of fun," Kessler said of the requested add-on to an already grueling course, which finishes at the top of the App Gap. "[Riders] will have ridden a little over 100 miles before they get to the finish," Kessler said.
That Sunday, September 1, the westbound lane of Route 17 on the upper portion of the Appalachian Gap will be closed to traffic. "That's the only official road closure all weekend," Kessler said, although drivers can expect "some delays" during other races.
In the past, the Green Mountain Stage Race course followed Route 100 south to the Granville Gulch. The race was rerouted a few years ago because "it was just unrideable," Kessler said, but after this summer's construction crews, "the pavement is really good." Racers won't be riding on it yet, but "I really hope for next year we'll be able to return," Kessler said.
On Friday, riders will compete in the Warren Store Time Trial, a 5.7-mile course from Warren Village up Brook Road and along East Warren Road to Common Road. On Saturday, riders will compete in the Bridges Circuit Race, a 19.9-mile course along Route 100 through Duxbury and Route 100B through Moretown. On Sunday, riders will compete in the 70-mile (or 100-plus mile) course along Route 2 to Richmond, Route 116 to Starksboro and Route 17 to the top of the App Gap. Monday is the Dealer.com Queen City Criterium in Burlington.

By Sgt. Sara Wood, USAAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, June 29, 2006 Thanks to the work of Japanese defense forces in Iraq, Iraqi security forces are now ready to take control of the province where Japanese troops worked, President Bush said here today.
"The people of Japan can be proud of the contribution their self-defense forces have made in the war on terror, and Americans are proud to serve alongside such courageous allies," Bush said at an arrival ceremony for Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi at the White House.
Koizumi announced June 20 that Japan would withdraw its roughly 550 soldiers, engaged in reconstruction and humanitarian work, from their base in Samawa in Iraq's southern province of Muthanna.
Koizumi said today that although his troops are leaving Iraq, Japan will continue to provide airlift support and any other support needed to coalition troops in Iraq.
"As a responsible member of the international community, through cooperation with various countries concerned and through cooperation with the United Nations, Japan will continue to provide support and help the Iraqis get back on their feet," Koizumi said at a news conference following his meeting with Bush.
At the news conference, Bush said that he and Koizumi also discussed the North Korean missile threat, and agreed that the U.S. and Japan must remain united in sending a clear message to North Korea that a missile launch is unacceptable. North Korea should brief all countries concerned with this problem as to the intentions of the missile launch, Bush said.
Koizumi agreed, saying that Japan and the U.S. need to maintain close coordination and encourage North Korea to become a responsible member of the international community.
The relationship between Japan and the U.S. is remarkable, because 60 years ago the two countries were at war, and now they are working together to develop democracy in other parts of the world, Bush said. He said he appreciates Koizumi's understanding of democracy's power to do good and his willingness to commit Japan's forces to support the war on terror.
"Japan is making a mighty contribution to new democracy, which I strongly believe is in our nation's interests and I strongly believe will yield peace," Bush said. "And I firmly believe that the example that we show today will be repeated over the decades, particularly with newly elected leaders in the Middle East."
