Cramer Won't Wait For Tesla
Jim Cramer:
Well it's also allowed him to take an, there's kind of an aggressive accounting stance you can take if you think the car's going to be worth certain amount later. I mean there's everything in the conference call but I urge people that are trading the stock to recognize that you're really trading a short squeeze and we don't know. Short squeezes are wild animals. So I mean at one point today people were using the Goldman report to get out of the stock. This is a stock that is not really a stock. Okay this is a poll. A referendum on a man and a car. I like companies like Ford (F - Get Report), that are real and General Motors (GM - Get Report) that are real. But I respect a short squeeze for what it can do and I also respect the man for what he's done.
Debra Borchardt:
I totally respect Elon Musk for, you know, one that he's done what a lot of people did not think could be done and there are a lot of failures in this area.
Jim Cramer: Right. Debra Borchardt: Many of the roads to electric cars and the independent car world are littered with failures. Jim Cramer: Right. Debra Borchardt: So he has done something really special here. Jim Cramer: Yes and I've went to look at one of the Teslas and I liked it immensely but they told me that there was a nine month wait so I said no. Debra Borchardt: You didn't put your name on the waiting list? Jim Cramer: No. I think that nine months is an awful long time to wait for a car. Debra Borchardt: All right, but listen. Let me ask you this. If there weren't a nine month waiting list, if they said Mr. Cramer here's the keys and you can drive out now. Would you've had bought it? Jim Cramer: Yes. Probably. Debra Borchardt: And there you go. So Tesla stock look at it. Be cautious about it because if you're looking at it, it really it might just be your just trading the short and not necessarily a pure play on the stock and that's Jim Cramer who could potentially be a future Tesla owner if there's no wait. --Written by Debra Borchardt in New York.>To contact the writer of this article, click here: Debra Borchardt.

Excellent Comfortable product
Overall Very Comfortable and work really well.They help my 12 year old enormously who goes to sleep listening to rain.
Wonderful for sleep and meditation
Overall I listen to meditation music that assists in falling and staying asleep. The band is comfortable and I am unaware of it, although at times it slips down my forehead and ends up like a mask! (hello Zorro!) I also use it to listen to my guided meditations when awake.
I have recommended the headband to others that suffer wakefulness during the night or hate normal headphones or in-ear head phones. -
Overall I bought these to use with my "soundtherapy". They are very comfortable, and easy to sleep with. I have a small head, so bought the smallest one.
I found initial set up confusing: adjusting the ear bud position was fiddly, not knowing which was left and right once inside the band (this matters for sound therapy), the cord coming out on top of my head (if it came out the back then it would be uncomfortable to lie on). But once set up, its great, I tuck the music unit under my pillow, read, fall asleep and am not bothered by the band at all. It doesn't however block out ambient sounds: I can still hear thunderstorms and cars, but generally the quality of my sleep is so much better that these noises become less invasive.
Love these headphones!
Overall This is a fantastic product. I listen to ASMR videos on YouTube to help me get to sleep, and always found it uncomfortable to have the bud earphones in, especially when you roll over onto your side and they are still in. The sleep phones are just so comfortable, the sound is great, and if I fall asleep with it still on it doesn't bother me at all - I really do forget that I'm wearing a headband. So glad I bought these, well worth the money.
Good Product
Overall Comfortable, can't feel headphones through headband.
Sizing on the large side, but happy with product.
Ideal for falling asleep
Overall Very impressed. Good advice on YouTube. I will probably look at wireless version
Great Product
Overall Fantastic value - I have chronic pain and consequently restless sleep - I wear these so as not to disturb my wife - excellent product.
time to replace?
Overall I bought a pair of these about four years ago when I started developing insomnia, and have used then almost every night since. Music doesn't work for me but I rarely last through more than 30 minutes of an audiobook! Recently the cord has got stiffer and started to crack, so I think I will try the new Bluetooth version next.
Very comfortable!!
Overall Easy to sleep with these on!!
Did exactly what I wanted
Overall Excellent product. Solved the problem of sleeping with ear phones perfectly. Very comfy to wear.
Overall These work very well and are comfortable to wear.
Not for me
Overall I bought these sleep phones so my neighbours would stop waking me up during the night and the sounds of construction wouldn't wake me up in the morning. I have found that they do not cancel enough noise to preform this purpose. I also found that wearing them makes me toss and turn and wake up with the cord around my neck early in the morning. Would not recommend unless you already know that sleeping with music works for you
Really comfy :)
Overall Well done guys, great product :)
At last something comfortable to wear while sleeping
Overall I love my headband - I only wish I had got the smaller size - I have by my own admission a larger head than my family and got medium - It is jst not secure enough and wished I had got the smaller size. All that a side I love love love them and have had a wonderful sleep since purchase.
Best Sleep Speakers I have used
Overall Best sleep speakers that I have used to date. Have previously used pillow speakers which don't last long as they are not robustly made and the cords break easily.
I use speakers to listen to my internet radio overnight.
So far I am very happy with the headband. -
Comfortable headphones
Overall Other headphones get twisted up when you're listening in bed. These are wonderful, no twisting, very comfortable, very warm and even a nice eye blinders!
I preferred the older model but still ok
Overall The only reason I bought the latest model was that the earlier model I had was not washable because the speakers were not removable. I think the older model was more comfortable as the speakers seemed smaller (or at least less bothersome on the ears).
Having said that there isn't anything else that goes close to trying to solve the problem of uncomfortable headphones for those who sleep on their sides. -
Overall The sleep headphones are fantastic, just what I needed. Thank you.
I can't believe I didn't invent these ages ago.
Overall I absolutely love these SleepPhones. I have always had problems with headphones and earphones that never fit properly and hurt my ears. These are so comfy. I wear them when I workout and when I sleep. Love this product. Thank you.
Great product
Overall These are so comfortable and they really help me get a good night's sleep with a 'white noise' recording. They don't completely block out the louder snoring activity from my lovely partner, but they definitely help.
I should have bought the smaller size as they're a bit loose. Size guide is a bit misleading as I even measured my head diameter and thought I'd need the medium size.
But overall, they are excellent and comfortable to wear to bed. -
I absolutely love them
Overall I received my headphones and absolutely love them. I am a chronic insomniac and suffer from tinnitus, and these sleep phones have made a huge difference so thank you very much. I have told all my friends and I know some of them from Hay are going to order them as well.
Overall Have not tested for travel yet, but is comfortable wearing to sleep
Overall The small size is excellent for me (adult female) Comfortable to sleep on - very happy
Simply the best sleep phones around.
Overall Having tried pretty much every sleep headphone solution available i found sleepphones and haven't looked back. Several sets in even my wife now has a set. Cheers.
Great sleeping aid
Overall These days I sleep like a baby, thanks to this product and some fun audiobooks
Comfort Plus
Overall The most comfortable ear phones I have ever worn
Good quality sound
Overall I love having a headphone I can sleep with. I sleep on my stomach and it doesn't get in my way and stays on. Sound quality is great can enjoy relaxing binaural sounds.
Great sleep aid
Overall I'm enjoying being able to listen to my meditation apps and fall asleep straight after now. The headphones are comfy even if you lie on your side.
A great idea for winter headphones if you are exercising/walking outside, as the fleecy headband keeps your ears nice and warm.
A good buy, quick delivery and a good useful product. -
Love them
Overall I've had another brand in the past and they were hopeless in comparison to these. I'm very happy with my purchase and will recommend them to any one that needs some.
Good product
Overall I use them every night but would prefer if they came in different sizes and with a slightly longer cord.
They really work for me
Overall My daughter borrowed mine for going overseas, I had to buy her some to get mine back, she loved them
Comfy headphones
Overall these headphones are comfy to wear in bed and my husband doesn't know that I am listening, he isn't disturbed.Good value.
Overall Best sleep I have ever had.
crap sleephones
Overall it doesn't block out any noise like people snoring or traffic like it was advertised and the head band becomes lose after you wash it so it wont sit on you r head properly a waste of money
Too Large
Overall The headband is too large and there is no money back guarantee. I was very silly to order without looking further on the net. There are cheaper and smaller ones on the market
Seep Solutions - unfortunately we cannot accept returns on some products due to hygiene considerations once they have been used. Best idea to measure your head size to ensure product will fit (which it does for most customers) -
it really works,you have to try
Overall i have ringing in my ears,
plus my husband sucks in the walls when he snores,so i have great trouble falling asleep,i found the sleep phone really blocks out everything and is very comfortable,so i highly recommend sleep phones -
Overall I travel for work so sleep does not come easy! My meditation app sounds so clear and so perfect. It's amazing - I sleep like a baby.
Very comfortable
Overall Great headband comfortable with very good sound.
So comfortable
Overall Great product because I can be comfortable whether on my back or my side. Tight enough to stay in place during the night and no sore ears.
nice product
Overall I bought these to use when i fall asleep listening to my iPod. It does exactly what it says it does, my ears are now comfortable and not painful trying to sleep with other in earphone. My only criticism is that i think they are a bit pricy for how simple they are
I like them
Overall They are a lot more comfortable than regular headphones for sleeping. They have good clarity. The chord is like iphone head phones (i.e., they don't tangle as much as some headphones).
It messes up my hair in the morning. But I don't care too much about that.
Great product
Overall Much more comfortable than traditional earphones when lying in bed though the headband itself was a bit looser than expected... it'd be nice to have different size options instead of one size fits all...
tinnitus help
Overall this product does help to mask tinnitus and comfortable to wear
great concept
Overall I have tried using normal bud earphones at night but they were awkward. These are extremely comfortable, if I had one concern, they are somtimes a little hard to hear if the earpiece slips past your ear, which it can be prone to do whilst laying on a pillow.
good sound
Overall I didn't think I had a big head but they feel a bit tight, but the sound is excellent.
Love it!
Overall I listen to a hypnotherapy recording to help me sleep. It works. With my old headphones I used to wake up with very sore ears. Now I wake up with snug and comfy ears!
A Good Night's Sleep
Overall Soft, Comfortable and Good sound Quality. One of the best items I have ever purchased.
Highly recommended
Overall I have bought about 8 sets of these - some for me and some as presents. I find them invaluable for isomniac times. Friends who don't like using bud-type earphones also find them very easy to use and comfortable.
music to my ears
Overall these are great! very comfortable to wear and warm in winter
good for the cold weather
Overall Very pleased with the phones however I feel that the purle headband would be too warm for Queensland summer. I'm considering a light cotton relacement for summer
SleepPhones not up to scratch
Overall I find SleepPhones rather annoying. The design makes them sit over your eyes to make them sit over your ears correctly. A more contoured shape would eliminate this and would make them much more pleasureable to wear. Also I find the speakers are a little to far apart. Both speakers do not sit properly over my ears
Sleep Solutions - Note the speaker position is adjustable within the band
Saved my life
Overall I spent years and years using ear plugs that never were satisfactory.
Sleep phones work I have had the best sleep in the last six months I have ever had. -
Room for improvement
Overall The earphones don't line up correctly.
But maybe thats because I have a big head LOL
The material is hot and at times feels constrictive in the warmer weather.
The sound quality is good and its still a better option than standard head sets.
But this head set has room for improvement.
Sleep Solutions - Note the speaker position is adjustable within the band
Overall In few words this product is brilliant
Overall I can't get on with these. I find them uncomfortable to sleep with and difficult to get them to stay in position for a)comfortable sleep and b) good sound quality
Great product
Overall My wife works odd times and falls asleep much easier when listening to music, so I ordered these as a Christmas gift last year. Initial concerns about durability were completely unfounded - 5 months later, and after almost daily use, the SleepPhones are holding up great, work perfectly, and I no longer need to untangle cords mid-sleep.
Great product
Overall I use my sleep phones every night. They are great. I even purchased a second pair for my son.
Overall I just love my new SleepPhones, very comfortable .... much better than earplugs which are uncomfortable. I'm planning on using them for international flights also, just pull down over your eyes to cut out the light.
Delivery was super fast as well. Thank you for a great product. -
Best sleep ever
Overall I have moved into an apartment and found external noises were preventing me from sleeping. I tried ear plugs but found that they made my ears ache. I ordered the SleepPhones along with the sleep masks and must say this product is fantastic. The sound quality is great and the band itself is so comfortable. I can still hear the external noises but it is muffled by the ocean waves/gentle rainfall coming from the earphones and they no longer bother me. I fully recommend the SleepPhones for anyone struggling to sleep because of noise

Yes, I know, the horror of not brewing for so long Anyway I decided to restart my brewing career with a big'un. I'm doing a Duvel Clone from AHS. Once that's in the bag I'm looking at doing something I can enjoy yet this year, possibly a Blonde Ale. Anyway just wanted to say I'm happy to be back brewing Eric
Welcome back! I would recommend checking out the recipes for either the Centennial Blonde or the Cream of Three Crops Cream Ale. Both are AMAZING, quick brews that always get good remarks at parties.

Thanks. The Centenial Blonde looks exactly what I'm looking for.

The Division of Pediatric Surgery at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center has established several training programs in which individuals participate in the broad clinical and academic experiences offered by specialized centers under the division. These positions are designed to be filled by general-surgery-trained individuals who come for one-year specialized experiences, serving as fellows for one of several specialty centers or trained pediatric surgeons who desire additional specialized experience.
The goal of these positions is to enable the trainees to gain expertise in specialized areas, enhancing their opportunities to apply for more formal general pediatric surgical fellowships. For those individuals who have completed training in pediatric general surgery, the program will enhance their expertise in specialized surgeries in anticipation of a subspecialization in one of these areas.
These subspecialty fellowship training programs are available:
If you wish to be considered for one of these positions, contact our residency coordinator, Julie Ludwig, by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The requirements for application are a curriculum vitae and two letters of recommendations from surgeons (preferably one from a pediatric surgeon). You must also be eligible to obtain an Ohio training certificate. These requirements include a valid ECFMG certificate (if applicable). Check the website for the Ohio State Medical Board for more information.

Why Does My Plane Need So Much Uptrim?
I've got one of these http://www.valuehobby.com/airplanes/...dy-to-fly.html. It's good flying airplane but pretty hard to keep it from being tailheavy, IMO. Mine's a bit heavy at around 53 ounces with a 3s 2200 and a 3548 sized motor. The reason I don't like having to use so much uptrim to fly level is that when I hover, it always wants to roll over or fall back on itself. I have a hard time using a little bit of elevator to consantly hover. Not sure if motor angle or anything can be adjusted to help. Perhaps a switch to change elevator trim for hovering? I'm not much on radio programming but I guess I need to learn. I'm using a Turnigy 9x radio.
Jun 25, 2012, 04:46 PM | |
I thought 3d planes were balanced tail heavy.

Got a few wind free flights in this morning. It flies level inverted. Anything half throttle or better doesn't change anything, inverted or upright. Ailerons look nice and level. Perhaps wing or elevator incidence is off a bit. Really not a big deal. I'd almost call this plane an aerobatic model and not really 3d. Ailerons are big and elevator is effective but rudder is kinda smallish. Hard to get it pointed back up when it falls to the side when hovering. This thing flat spins like nothing else I've flown though. Loses very little altitude when doing them. Afraid I'm going to burn the motor up doing them. It's so fun and easy to do them. Gonna swith to a 4s setup soon for more snap.
Jun 29, 2012, 07:40 AM | |
Might be something to do with the throws. Rudder needs to almost touch the elevators. Lots of elevator also. I find the elevator never stops moving when in hover unless you get it dead on vertical, but hard to get that point. In hover, all you depend on is propwash over the surfaces, so you need lots. I've found it helps to pulse the throttle. That way you get more prop blast over the surfaces.

Officials in both San Miguel and Mora counties are concerned about a bill making its way through the House that would significantly limit the amount of authority New Mexico counties have in regulating oil and gas drilling within their jurisdictions.
San Miguel County Commissioner Nicolas Leger said that if the bill ends up getting enacted into law, it would likely invalidate large portions of the San Miguel County drilling ordinance enacted late last year after about three years of hearings.
Denika Montoya is on a cookie-selling mission. The second grade student at North Star Elementary has set a goal to sell 2,000 boxes of Girl Scout cookies this year. For several years, the famous cookies were hard to come by in Las Vegas, as a local troop appeared non-existent.
For Montoya, the biggest sales are the chocolate, caramel and coconut cookie, Samoas, and the ever-so-popular Thin Mints.
"She has been very busy," said Denika's mother, Olivia Gonzales, "It is an every-day thing for us."
Roughly 19 months after coming on board as Mora County manager, Rebecca Montoya is moving on.
Montoya, who has been on leave since Feb. 1, is officially giving her 30-day notice on March 1 that she will be leaving the county manager post.
Mora County has already started advertising for Montoya's replacement. Anyone interested in the job must submit an application, resume and three letters of recommendation to the county by this Friday.

New Mexico for the first time has a true inventory of the tens of thousands of miles of pavement that crisscross the state, and it shows some roads are in worse condition than previously thought.
Tom Church, the head of the state's transportation department, outlined the findings of a recent state-of-the-art road assessment during a legislative committee meeting this week. More than 5,800 miles need anywhere from minor rehabilitation to reconstruction.

Last year, we learned in publishing our inaugural "Top Workplaces" section that culture trumps compensation.
Obviously, employees like to be well-paid, but they told us that a sense of being valued by their employer is more important in creating a great place to work. In compiling last year's coverage, we heard from a lot of Oklahoma employees who love where they work and what they do.

Phil Schiller's iPad mini pitch was all wrong
I'm still scratching my head over the way Schiller pitched this product. I think it would've been better to ignore the competition and perhaps pitch this is filling a gap in Apple's product line (iPod touch-->iPad). Focus on how thin and light it is, focus on the great build quality (the Verge said the Fire and Nexus feel like toys compared to the mini), focus on the ecosystem, focus on all the things that make iPad great. And then highlight some great apps or textbooks (rumor was this would have an education focus). To me the pitch was all wrong. And by comparing it to the 7" cheaper tablets the focus automatically shifts to price. Obviously with the $329 price tag Apple isn't looking to compete in a race to the bottom so why even mention the competition? If anything Apple should have tried to move the media focus away from the Fire and Nexus comparisons. But it's hard to do that when Schiller focuses on the Nexus in the keynote.

I agree. Two things struck me as odd with that part of the keynote.
- Apple choosing to display a competitor model against their offering in a segment of the market they don't already have a major share. I mean it pointed out the key differences but it also showed me what apple was afraid of too. Sort of like saying oh yeah well look what we did... - major reveals like that should be made from the face of the company not a vice president. I think this was a missed opportunity for Mr. Cook to really step up and start become the showman like CEOs of the past. Mr. Cook's energy seemed real high and very contagious but he didn't really drive the keynote with that energy. That could have been a very magical moment. |

He can't afford to ignore the competition because he knows they're going to point out the drastic difference in screen quality, processor speed, and price. Apple is charging 130 dollars more for a far inferior product. Apple needs to do everything it can to distract customers from that fact. When your main selling point is that your bezel is smaller, you've made a bad product.

I disagree. I think it was important to focus on why their choice of 4:3 was superior. And remember thant he same logic applies to the full size iPad compared to the full size 16:9 competition.

I know everyone goes on about Steve and everything, but I sincerely miss his presentations. He made you want the product, even if he was pitching a pair of socks.
Tim Cook seems very boring, although I'm sure very intelligent, he's not cut out to present these things. Phil is better, cracks the odd joke, but I still didn't get the feeling this was a product he loved. It was just a product that needed selling.

I take it you never watched any of his keynotes. When the original iPhone came out he made it pretty clear how pathetic he thought phones with keyboards were. Schiller made us see how much better the 4:3 screen and tablet apps were compared to a 16:9 Android tablet.

Schiller did a very good job.
It's time to get into acceptance that Apple is changing and the "old" style has been replaced. The new way will work every bit as good, the sales numbers prove it. Nothing to be concerned with.

Apparently I'm not joined en masse in my assertion that watching this media event was equivalent to watching a train wreck in slow motion. The ipad pitch was not only bad.....it was flat out spinster.
The rest of it...well...this is the first time I've truly noticed the absence of the jobs reality distortion field. If any product day needed it..today was that day |

"i would encourage you to get it, it's really fantastic..." i mean, come on, no passion, no fire. plus he often refers to us simply as "customers" - he isn't talking to us directly but rather to a very impersonal business/customer type relationship. he is just too soft spoken. |

I like Tim Cook. He strikes me as someone who genuinely loves his company but is a little awkward with publicly speaking. All it will take is a little practice. Some of the really early Steve Jobs keynotes and speeches have a similar awkward but ernest feel.

I loved that he pointed out the flaws of another product. He showed how their screen sizes are so much smaller after you remove the navigation and title bars on the android tablet. He stated how Apple doesn't use the cheap plastic materials like the opposition. I think Apple may too often take the high road, it's nice to see them throwing some jabs

I guess they needed something to upgrade to next year. I predict the next iPad mini will have a Retina Display with a resolution around 1536x1152. |

Cat Declawing in Westerville and Galena, OH
Scratching or yanking at objects is a natural behavior and common for cats. It is instinctive in order to allow for new nail tissue growth and to remove dead nail fragments, but it can also be detrimental to your carpet, furniture, doors and your home in general. Declawing can be implemented at any age, but the younger the feline, the shorter the recovery time.
At Animal Care Clinics, we utilize laser surgery, which reduces pain and swelling and minimizes bleeding. It also reduces the chance of infection and promotes a more speedy recovery with less post-operative pain. For these very important reasons, our patients and their owners prefer this type of process.
Declawing is an irreversible procedure and occurs while the patient is under general anesthesia. After the procedure, most cats return to their normal routine and will be back to scratching in no time, but this time without any damage to your home!

was an ok serial. The cave interiors were pretty lame, they seemed to be early green/blue screen or something similar. It just looked pretty bad, and it didn't help the average story to have unimpressive locations. The story kind of felt like a bit of a retread of

, and it was a bit bland compared to that story. The gold headed minions were kind of interesting looking, but that was the only thing interesting about the villains. I liked the idea of a culture that the Timelords accidentally screwed up, but it wasn't a big factor in the story unfortunately. Overall it wasn't a bad story, but it wasn't very memorable. Next up will be the serial I accidentally skipped over,
The Sun Makers
Bluescreen work: yep, it is. The producer went on holiday and came back to find the designer had spent the entire budget on the spaceship set, leaving none for the caves (he maybe thought the BBC had some in store). They saved the day by doing it all as CSO.

A Summit With Something to Say
By Anonymous
Wed 29 Aug, 2012 - 18:17
NPO in rural area faces insurmountable challenges as funding from DSD means losing their status and independency including governance and management roles. DSD sort of takes over irrespective of how much governance is at place. I agree the initiative is good and an eye opener more still to be done.

@Carol we invited 800 NPOs from different Provinces; depending on how many NPOs are there in each NPOs. The 200 was from other Stockholders like churches n traditional leaders. The total no of delegates was 1000 registered NPOs. The fact t
hat we had an NPO summit proves that we want to do something for our communities as mandated by our government n leading party ANC. @Sangonet thank you very much I have received the email & will definitely engage you on it to better the lives of our communities.

I'm totally flabagasted " SA the envy of the world, our rainbow nation." I find this very amusing Honestly. Why was this invitation for a few selective NPO's out of the thousands , that could actually benefit from a summit of this nature. QUOTE "We cannot have a situation where a few large organisations are able to access huge resources and many community-based organisations struggle from day to day…"
Wonderful of you to mention the "community based" ..... HOW many of them were invited???? Need I say more. Private corps should get more involved.... Do your homework. Private corps, overseas donations pay more attention and give more to rural and semi rural. The DSD chooses to ignore these areas, they to damn lazy to get of their behinds and do something constructive for their own rural communities, says @Carol on Facebook: Sangonet Pulse

The Orange County Fire Authority sent in more firefighters and equipment to help in addition to the 40 firefighters sent Tuesday. To the wildfire strike team of five engines, hand crew of 22 firefighters and four logistical personnel already sent, another strike team was dispatched: five fire retardant foam trucks and 17 firefighters.
The arriving storm front could bring a 20 percent chance of rain and 15-24 mph winds with gusts to 40 mph that could push the flames in erratic ways.
The fire, which began Monday afternoon, has burned six homes and mobile homes, one cabin, and more than a dozen other buildings. One home also was damaged.
Idyllwild resident Dave Jones was back in his home Thursday, a day after evacuating, but remained ready to leave again.
The walls were bare in the home where he's lived for the past 40 years after the 64-year-old and his wife stowed the valuable mementos, along with more practical items, like clothes, jewelry, medicines and the computer hard drive, before heading to their son's home in nearby Hemet.
"The fire came right up by the ridge yesterday afternoon, gave everybody a pretty good scare that it was going to come down the hill," Jones said Thursday night.
The last time he evacuated for a fire it was 1997, and he stayed away for four days. Jones said he considered the order he got Wednesday "a light evacuation" and wasn't afraid because he knows of a controlled dirt road to use as "an escape route" if fire does come down that ridge.
More than 100 evacuees, including campers rousted from spots in the danger zone, spent the night at a high school.
Authorities said the fire was human-caused, but they wouldn't say whether it was accidental or intentional. There have been no reports of injuries. The fire has cost $8.6 million to fight so far.
The fire was about 12 miles from the site of the 2006 Esperanza wildfire that killed five U.S. Forest Service firefighters and destroyed 34 homes and blackened an area that hadn't burned in many years.
–Register staff writer Salvador Hernandez, the Riverside Press-Enterprise and Associated Press reporters Raquel Maria Dillon in Idyllwild, Gillian Flaccus in Santa Ana and Shaya Tayefe Mohajer in Los Angeles contributed to this report.

@RandyNinja Agreed! This game IMO is excellent! It feel like mix of Dark Sector and Time Shift! Its also very polished and smooth! Hopefully they'll release a decent demo for anyone that's not sure! Im on my third run through!
Once again IGN prove that despite being a gaming website they laughably know nothing about games in general. Another terrible review for a game that's actually really good.
"This game IMO is excellent! It feel like mix of Dark Sector and Time Shift" Hence the mediocre score
@stevo302 I did mention it WAS polished!...Smart ass! Darksector and Timeshift were, as far as gameplay can be considered, are not. Though the ideas behind those two game IMO are more than decent. Its not clever to pass judgement on a product you havent played. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. You sit on yours and miss out. I'll sit on mine and enjoy.
anyone who bought this is in for a severe dissappointment. total lack luster game, premise sounds fun but the graphics are crap, sound is aweful and weapons are fairly retarded. it LOOKS and plays almost just like timeshift but i would say timeshift was better built.
I still don't get the "move time forward, guys age...move time back, they turn into monsters" thing. O_O I don't recall being a hideous flesh eating monster in my past, do you? Look, I get that they didn't want to have you revert soldiers to children and then shoot them with a rifle, because that would get on the 6:00 news as a "child-killer simulator" or something for sure...but it's just such a bizarre concept. Monsters? I mean, it sounds like the "aging" thing just turns them to dust pretty fast, so why not just have reverting them zap them into nothingness in moments (i.e. reversion before existence)? Still solves your problem, and makes a little more sense. O_O
I find it funny that IGN laments the fact that the Russians are the enemy yet again in this game, yet they blew their load over Bad Company 2 and MW2. I say its time the Chinese became the big bad guys.
You idiot, the Chinese can't be the badguys..they put together our toys and clothing for low low prices.
ok ign can go f**k themselves rite now just look at what the gamers say who already got it for about a week its at least an 8 score game f u ign i will never trust any rating from u again napsclub
@darrel88 im glad you like it i dont think ign actually play the games the review anymore it seems like most review sites sell out and fill there sites with advertisment instead of being true to themselve. the game has tones of great and intresting points to it but for it to get a good rating it has to had over some incentive to the reviewers a little bit like xboxs shocking e3 confrence that only got good reviews because they gave everybody there a free xbox. people should rent this game or buy it and not listen to igns stupid scoe system that never gets it right.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahaha. "WAAH IGN SUCKS they didn't like the crappy game that I'm obsessed with because I like crappy games" this game does in fact suck, not incredibly fun, not challenging in the slightest, frustrating and with an absolutely inane and thoughtless story/level and character design to boot this game is a piece of expensive dung. enjoy your whining bitches.
Hey, Randy Ninja, people like you ruin these comment fields. Since when is a 7 a BAD score? You little fan boys cry foul unless a game gets a 9.5! As a general rule, if you feel like you get the reviewers tastes, then you will potentially like a game rated by that person with a 6.5-10. Just because you like it does not mean it deserves a score that's too High for its quality.
@ Cl2EEpZ Wow. You must get butt-hurt when your favorite shows go to commercial break. Look man, a 7 is not a bad score. A '7' means that everything that is supposed to work in the game does work. It just may be a bit uninspired, that's all. I enjoyed playing Timeshift and Dark Sector, but those games were about a '7' in my book. If the developers would have found more cool ways to implement the time manipulation, I'm sure this would have got the '8' you think it deserves. All a 7 really means is that you will enjoy the game, but it will leave you wishing that they would have done more with the game. I felt the same way when I played Timeshift and Dark Sector. Good games, but I wish the developers would have done more with their respective gimmicks.
7 means, it mostly worked with a couple of problems, but it wasn't really fun, and if it was fun, then it wasn't fun for very long.
@ weaponxmajolnir i take it the only game you play is mw2 whilst trolling internet forums. the point i was trying to get across was the review itself was awful it didnt pick up on the main gameplay points and seemed like the reviewer didnt even play the game. i dont care what score a game gets ill buy it and make up my own mind it seems like so many people get caught up in a stupid ign score than actually playing them and having there own opionion
Gamespot gave it 8/10 They really seem to like it. Heres the vid review http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/singularity/video/6267112/singularity-video-review
The reviewer played the game, don't think otherwise. The presentation is nice, the story is interesting and it IS exagerated. There's nothing "corny". Graphics: Simply beautiful. What the hell does "stand out as inspired" mean? It runs way better than Conviction, it's prod values for graphics are sky high compared to other "stellar" games of 2010. A great use of Unreal Engine, period. And if you don't agree with my oppinion on this point I don't really care. As for the gameplay, what did you want, to be able to age the whole map? It takes enough time to animate this mechanic for the small amount of objects you can use it on, and for what it can do it does it well.. It has it's drawbacks storywise and gameplay mechanics wise, but no one can give you all your imagination would want. Otherwise it's a fun shooter with gorgeous weapons and environments.
ok, let me see...hummm transformers war for cibertron get a 9.0 from ign and is just a piece of shit of a game and singularity a game that is not briliant, but his wayyy better than tranformers gets a 7.0.....yeah.... i think they have to hire new reviewers because no one takes ign seriously anymore... realy.... singularity gets a 7.0 transformers has to get a 3.0 -_-
@xinriu - I couldnt agree more. War for Cybertron was a mediocre, mess of a game. How it ever received a 9 is beyond comprehension, and how this received 7 is absurd.
Does anyone know where I can get some cheap air jordan's, because that's all IGN reviews are good for lately.
i agree with that. i have the transformers game and i was shocked it received a 9 but it's not really that... engaging at all. there's something wrong with the reviews.
to be honest i dont quite agree with the review but hey thats me, i for once liked the flow of the game and i belive that the raven software studio as surpased it self, now for the dumb comments on the game, "its looks like another run of the mill shotter" lol so does halo and other hypes bs out in the marked, most of which dont have an story perse to speak of, anyway i know how expensive the games lately have been but i still say that u should rent it at least, who know it might surprise u in the end.
Wow a lot of arguing going on here. Just because you enjoy the game means IGN got it wrong is that what your saying. Well how about this all you are wrong. This game does not provide anything different from any other game. The graphics are just mediocore at best when compared to the newer games. It provides some neat ideas that never reached their potential. The story is laughable, does not deserve your money at all. Sorry this game is a major and I mean MAJOR disappointment. So all Activision fan boys please stop
IGN please stop!!!!! please stop being so generous with your scores. This a "7" no way how about a "4.5" this game is not even close to a "7". Transformers a "9" are you kidding me, graphics remind me of 2007 or earlier. Lets adjust the rating system. a "5" is an average game. Above a "5" is above average this does not deserve above a "5" at all. 6 hours how about 4 hours if your lucky
I don't care about the score, but this review is troubling. It makes IGN feel jaded and depressed. There's no passion for gaming here. Maybe it's just a post-E3 thing. Too much video games and not enough sunshine. Go outside and throw the frisbee around a bit. You'll feel better.
Halo is just another run of the mill shooter? I can honestly say i've never seen a shooter like halo because anything in that market is dominated by guess who halo so maybe if you can tell me TrueBlueGamer say three games that are very much like halo and anywhere close as good then i can consider your comment to not be just blatant slander on halo
Hi ppl.i posted a comment previously also,,,, i ended this game 4 days before 29th june ,,, well honestly it desereves 8.5...... i was expecting ign to give it above 8 but the way how ign has given remarks about this game is really negligence.. i think in near future sites like ign wonot be reliable ne more if this megligence continues.
this game reminds me of time shift i think its name was. Think i'll just play that, cheaper to play that then shell out 60 for a new game with the same gimic.
I wanna play MGS5 rising...all these games look lame, only like 3 good game making companies out there...
I knew this game wouldn't be that great. The whole time manipulation thing is a great idea, but much harder to execute. It's just too limited. It would be cool if anywhere you faced could potentially be effected by the time. Like if the entire game was made in new, used, and abandoned environments all layered over each other, so that anywhere you aim could be changed. This game always reminded me of FEAR. It looks and sounds awesome, but ends up just achieving mediocrity. Too bad.
WOW ! How wrong can IGN be ? This is the best game i've played in 10 years Im totally sure IGN DONT play the games before they review them. Best graphics and animations ive seen since 'batman' and that won 'game of the year' This is a PROGRESSIVE game, meaning you start of with normal human weapons and can do extra things later on and the controller buttons change throughout the game. I bet the ign reviewer just saw the begining and based his review on that! Online play wont keep hardcore gamers going for long unless updates are released but single play has at least 10 hours play first time around esp. if your a collector of secrets. my review: Graphics = 9.0 Sound = 8.2 Game play = 8.5 story = 7.6 over all = 9.0 .
"These are the most tense and exciting parts of the game" Well thanks for spoiling them, then! Also, I feel like they could probably do this concept justice with a sequel.
SINGULARITY kicks ass! I Think this is one of the best time manipulating/FPS games out there than from any other FPS games that don't have this Awesome Concept! My Favorite SciFi/FPS/Time Manipulation game of all time, so Far! Also Raven is one of my favorite Developer,and ID Software as Well!
lol, kk shadowrider77 i got it, halo its 1 of ur favorite games but hey its still run of the mill to me, do u know the meaning for that term dude, its basically saying that its a shotter (polished or not) that plays with its mechanics very safely without trying to reenvent them, u may be dissing me here but to me its like that, i like halo dont get me wrong but to be honest when i see bs review that give (for the reasons i might know) high pytch scores on games that maybe shouldnt be that high praised and then bash (lol not bash but u got it right) games that risk on developing new mechanics it just pisses me off, i still say this game is 1 to check about, and lol no im not going to say 3 or whatever games i found to be runing on a mill lol, cause im not here to start a war, u might though on that for ur self dude. be safe
I guess they didn't have that Toy Story 3 money. Or maybe they could've pulled off that 8.0. Really, IGN? Really?
Game is ok. I can say that most of russian voice & writings are correct. But correct writing for surname of player's guide is: Borisov (not Barisov). Sry 4 bad ENG.
You don't think this is a fair review? He gave it an "average", 7.0. Nothing about that reads unfair to me. Does anything about this game look above average to you, people of the internet?
the game is silly and derivative. but i like it. a 7 is fair. that doesn't necessarily means it's not good. i give it an 8 on my scale. who cares what anyone else thinks. it's your opinion that matters.
"It seems that the Russians are doomed to forever be the villains in American videogames. The Soviet Union collapsed nearly 20 years ago and the Cold War is over, but Singularity still manages to make those dastardly commies the enemy." You know what's even worse then the Russians getting a bad rap? Zombies!! They're the bad guy in tons of games, and there has never been a true attack by zombies on humanity. Its outright discrimination that zombies get singled out time after time, when they have never been a true enemy to anyone. Just because Zombies aren't real doesn't mean they don't have feelings!
