How You Can Generate Money from Your Website
It doesn't matter if you have a product based website or service based, you still need to generate more money from it. The truth is that one website should be divided into two basic parts, visual part and strategic part. We will share 4 ways how to generate money from your website.
1. Affiliate links
Via affiliate links you can offer your customers products similar to yours, and not only you will take percentage of the sales, you will increase your credibility. Your site will become like sort of online shop and that is what the audience likes. Everything they need in one place.
2. Sequenced options
The subscribers to your website should get something in return. Maybe you can make it like three parts videos and there advertise your product, or announce a challenge to help improve something and take the attention of the subscribers. This is done by many owners and is proven to work.
3. Hold Workshops
Making people trust you is a tough step. Maybe the best solution to make someone to trust you is to talk to them and convince them that you have something that is valuable. Not only written in text how the people can work with your website, you need to get in close contact with them. Try out the best Webinar solutions like WebinarJam, Easy Webinar or WebinarAlly.
4. Stop focusing on numbers
When you check the numbers and you see that you have 1000 followers, will make you feel better. But the true followers are far less than 1000. That's why you need to add value to your work and the real followers will start to share your good work and maybe someone would want to invest in your ongoing business.
In the today's world you are literally limitless with the help of the advanced technology. Either you developed it or someone else did that, you can still use free useful tools to boost your income and generate money from your website.

Andrew Fisher
I've written previously about why social security was the reason for me developing my heartfelt hatred for the Tory Party. Like millions of others, I am where I am due to social security, and I feel a particularly deep dislike of those who would vilify that system.
Yesterday was another example and the excellent John Millington (@Johnjournalist on twitter) has written a wonderful blogpost on what's wrong with it.
I won't attempt a second rate imitation of that post, but here's why I think Ed's policy announcement was all wrong.
You won't convince people Labour is tougher on welfare than the Tories ... and you shouldn't f***ing want to
People who are hostile to the whole concept of the welfare state vote Tory. Labour created the welfare state. It's one of its proudest achievements. It reduced destitution, poverty, malnourishment and underachievement - and still does.
If people want someone to give a kicking to those on welfare they will trust the Tories to do it more efficiently. They've been doing it for years and are frankly better at it.
Not only does this strategy fail to win over sceptics but it loses Labour its own voters and supporters. It's morally vile and electorally counterproductive too.
Rights are better than the contributory principle
Ed Miliband and Jon Cruddas have both been vocal about increasing the contributory element of the social security, and emphasising its role.
This is wrapped up in the clothes of William Beveridge - the Liberal architect of the post-war welfare state. But the contributory element of welfare was always partial - the insurance was called 'national insurance' - us as a nation collectively, not individually, insuring ourselves against illness, disability or unemployment.
But Miliband and Cruddas have been using this negatively - to strip away rights from the young who, precisely because they are young, have no record of contribution. And therefore will have their benefits means-tested (if they don't have A-levels) and will be sanctioned if they don't take up training.
Adults shouldn't be means-tested on their parental income. If they're old enough to work, pay tax and vote then it's ludicrous that they should still be treated like they are dependent upon their parents. Young people deserve dignity and independence - and they need those to be enforceable rights.
But then shouldn't we all have a right not to live in poverty - and a right to an independent dignified life? And that's whether or not we have been able to contribute through employment.
Education, education, education
Labour should be in favour of more education, more training and of people developing their skills. Primarily we should favour for this for reasons of human liberation. Education broadens the mind, develops our critical faculties and gives us confidence and greater life choices. Making ourselves more valuable in the labour market is a valuable secondary outcome, but it should be just that. We should encourage education and training for its own sake.
Young people don't need sanctions to take up training. If it's in their interests and will further their job prospects they will take them. The need for 'tough' rhetoric is futile. Labour should be emphasising what it will be offering people by way of support and training, and acknowledging that the person best-placed to judge what will help is the young person themself - it's called respect.
So offer young people training, give them an allowance while they're at college, on a course, learning a skill - but don't strip people of their benefits if they want to carry on looking for work and turn down the training on offer.
It's jobs, not skills that we lack
The other problem with what Ed proposed was that it assumes the reason we have high youth unemployment is due to a lack of skills among young jobseekers. In fact our economy is increasingly becoming low skill, low wage and low productivity. In fact we are wasting the talents of many people who are overqualified for the mundane jobs they do. The main jobs shortage in the UK has actually been for a long time for unskilled work. So it's skilled jobs, not skilled young people that are lacking.
That is a major problem that needs addressing, but reshaping our economy and labour market would take a courageous politician - not one who cowers before the Daily Mail or The Sun - and gets tough on young unemployed people at a time when four people are chasing every vacancy.
Why rob children to fund childcare?
A proposal that went under the radar a bit yesterday was the proposal to freeze child benefit to pay for extra childcare. Reports differ as to whether Labour is likely to adopt the proposal.
But the real question is whether an additional childcare commitment should be funded by taking money away from the already depreciated child benefit - a universal benefit with a much better take-up rate than means-tested benefits like child tax credit.
Why not fund increased childcare for families by increasing general taxation, or hitting the wealthy with increased capital gains tax, inheritance tax or even a mansion tax - or indeed by cutting truly wasteful expenditure like Trident.
The Labour Party that pledged to scrap the bedroom tax is the Labour needs to find its voice on the benefit cap, sanctions and workfare too. Labour can cut social security spending (as I've argued before), but this pathetic capitulation politics which reinforces right wing narratives is vile and will prove counterproductive.

Media mogul Rupert Murdoch offers protections for Sky News in bid to get his company's £11.7bn takeover of Sky over finishing line
Media mogul Rupert Murdoch has offered protections for Sky News in a bid to get his company's £11.7bn takeover of Sky over the finishing line.
The 'firewall' proposals would give the channel an editorial board to protect its independence and guarantee funding for at least five years.
It comes after regulators raised concerns that 21st Century Fox's takeover of Sky would give the Murdoch family, which controls Fox, too much sway over the UK media.
Offer: Rupert Murdoch's 'firewall' proposals would give Sky News an editorial board to protect its independence
Murdoch, 86, also owns newspapers The Sun, The Times and The Sunday Times.
The Competition & Markets Authority last month suggested Sky News would need to be either spun off or given added protections in order for Sky's takeover to go ahead. It sparked fears that the pioneering news channel could be shut down.
But in documents published yesterday by the regulator, Fox said it would promise to protect Sky News' editorial independence. In its response to the CMA, Fox said: 'The combined effect of the proposed firewall remedies is that there could be no circumstances in which, post-transaction, the Murdoch family trust or members of the Murdoch family could influence, whether directly or indirectly, the editorial line of Sky News.'
Sky, in a separate submission, added: 'The remedies proposed by 21st Century Fox would be an effective and comprehensive solution to any potential concerns arising from the transaction.'
Bosses at Fox will be hoping the proposals draw a line under the CMA's concerns about the Sky takeover. The deal was proposed in 2016 but regulators and politicians have wrangled over whether to approve it. But efforts to push it through have become more urgent at Fox since the company itself agreed to be taken over by Disney. That includes Fox's holding in Sky, which Disney boss Bob Iger has described as a 'crown jewel'.
The regulator has said its concerns would fall away if Sky was owned by Disney.

Since the success of the wireless headset, we are delighted to introduce the new Philips Wireless SpeechMike.
Pathology Reporting, Manchester 2017
Following the Pathology Reporting, London 2017 Seminar in July, and the interest garnered, TalkingPoint hosted another free one-day seminar for Histopathologists, BMSs and Laboratory Managers on the 7th of December 2017 at the recently opened event centre, 'etc.venues', Piccadilly, Manchester.
Histopathology reporting is an integral part of the Pathologists and BMS's working day, and the aim of the seminar was to outline the benefits of the speech enabled workflow solutions e.g.
- Easier reporting - hands-free for both cutup and microscopy, including fluid dictation, structured reporting, single utterance standard reports, intuitive SNOMED dictation and fully automated block entry during cutup.
- Faster reporting - complete removal of the dictation/transcription process ensures report efficiency and reduced cost.
- Improved reporting - instant full visibility of reports whilst dictating with structured entry, improved content and consistency.
07.12.17 How TalkingPoint for Pathology is driving reporting at the Countess of Chester HospitalThe Pathology Department at the Countess of Chester Hospital (CoCH), (Trust-wide users of TalkingPoint Digital Dictation since 2009) has implemented the "TalkingPoint for Pathology" speech recognition workflow solution.
"I think TalkingPoint with speech recognition is a great benefit – it has greatly improved my turnaround times. Before, if I dictated something, it may take the secretaries 24 hours to type it up. Whereas now, I just dictate my report and it is done instantly," comments Dr Jackie Elder, Consultant Histopathologist & Head of Cellular Pathology, Countess of Chester Hospital. Continues Jackie: "We have been working with GHG to look at the speech driven workflow primarily with histology reports, cytology reports and post mortem reports."

Although they are still quite some time away, it looks like the consoles of tomorrow might get some serious tessellation support. This is not so surprising knowing that the console refresh comes in 2012, at least according to our well informed industry sources.
LOL! Cool story. 2012? PC will be on to the next one. Yet again console will get hand-me-downs and be a few generations behind the curve.
@ Below
What about it? PC can do that too, but has no need to because it can do proper AA techniques. MLAA has been shown to blur textures, I don't know about you but I don't like my games looking like mud. 8xMSAA is just as resource intensive as MLAA but provides a far better image quality without blurry textures.
Like MLAA??
MLAA is a sub-standard filtering technique.
The only reason why it exists is because it's inexpensive to calculate.
i read that the 360 supports this already. Can the ps3 do this using the cell if the rsx doesnt support it?
lol MLAA, I tried that out on my 5850, went right back to AD MSAA.
Yeah, of course PC is/will be better, it's variable and can be upgraded (how do we know consoles won't get that feature in the future?).
Tessellation is far superior to bump/parallax mapping. I do expect future consoles to be able to handle ray casting, tessellation, 1080p, stereoscopic with a high lod; Otherwise i'd be disappointed.
There's no point in arguing. It should be PC/PS3 that way you get ALL the good games (ps3 exclusives), with high quality multi-plat(PC).
PSFAN knows what he's talking about. Agree x1000 lol, bubs up for the truth. PC + PS3 is how to do it. Doing one or the other will result in a worse gaming experience :)
it is all about the games. i don't buy an ipod for the electronics, i buy it for listening to music. same goes here. PC is superior in hardware but who cares. we got the games. just accept it, PC is the inferior gaming experience unless you like WOW
The thing is a really good gaming PC cost more than twice as much as consoles. So it really does'nt matter. Alot of people can't invest in a good gaming PC. I even wait for console prices to go down.
PC gaming is dying. Very few people game on rigs anymore. Tick Tock....
The Community of PC Gaming, is bigger than PS3 and Xbox 360 combined.
Yes, but for RPG games like World of Warcraft and Starcraft. The PC is becoming a specialized platform for RPG.
lol Funny that console gamers resort to the cliche "PC gaming is dying" line. How long have people been saying that.. 20 odd years now? lol.
It's also funny PC gamers can back up their claims with facts: benchmarks and actual data, while console gamers are still fighting over whatever PR bullshit they're being fed.
Then why do amd sell 21.5million dx11 cards from october to now ?
Thats not including nivida dx11 sales
Also starcraft 2 launch being as big as it was.
PC gaming is bigger than console so its surely not dead.
Why is there a PC vs Console war going on?
Everyone knows PC holds the ultimate performance as always...
@ demonstalker
PC will always beat out 360 and ps3 performance wise. Obviously there are certain exclusives that may make this hard to believe (GT5 is the best looking racing game on any platform, even pc. Uncharted 2, KZ2/3, TLG, Heavy Rain are all better looking than any multiplat game maxed on PC) However gaming is more about GAMES than performance, and the PS3 at least has some amazing games that cant be played anywhere else. Most of the GOTYs and best rated games of this gen are PS3 exclusives and you can't play these if you're only a PC gamer. Personally I game on my Asus G73JH, desktop and my ps3. Personally I prefer the PS3 due to these exclusive games - but I always use my PC for multiplats - however IMHO and reviewers and gaming award judges opinions exclusive games > multiplats. So thats my take on it all anyway
"Yes, but for RPG games like World of Warcraft and Starcraft."
Starcraft... isn't an RPG. Proof you don't even know anything about PC gaming. Heck, World at Warcraft isn't even technically an RPG, it's an MMORPG. Huge difference honestly.
Warcraft and Starcraft are not RPG games.
the craft
you then realize graphics cards aren't only for gaming
Maybe the developers can get MLAA to run as good as it does on God Of War 3...one day.
You're right. The MLAA implemented by sony santa monica on god of war 3 is completely different to, and significantly better than, the MLAA offered by ATI on their cards on certain games (GTA4, ME2 etc.) atm. Hopefully they can improve this in the future as its a great, non resource taxing aa solution for the ps3 and could be for the pc too :)
Neither gives perfect coverage of all on-screen objects (afterall, they're both cheap substitutes for SSAA) but MLAA provides, at least on the Cell (and possibly future PC GPUs), far higher overall quality at a much lower cost.
The best looking game in this generation of consoles, God of War 3, uses MLAA.
The MLAA demonstrated on PC GPUs is of much lower quality because GPUs are not capable of running the more sophisticated algorithms that are easily handled by the Cell processor.
Star Wars Force Unleashed 2 uses something like MLAA and were able to obtain greater than double the performance using just 5 SPUs on the Cell Processor than using all 48 shader units on the the 360s GPU.
"The MLAA demonstrated on PC GPUs is of much lower quality because GPUs are not capable of running the more sophisticated algorithms that are easily handled by the Cell processor."
lolwut? You do realize PCs have insane processors such as the i7? People act like the Cell is the most sophisticated processor ever made in the universe.
And yeah, MLAA on PC is GPU bound. But it's a post-processing effect, nothing more, either way. You won't be getting the results of SSAA or even 8XMSAA anytime soon.
stoney 4 " You won't be getting the results of... 8XMSAA anytime soon." Wrong
" When looking at MLAA quality compared to MSAA quality we actually find that MLAA quality looks as good as, or even better than 8X MSAA! "
- and that MLAA is a worse form than that employed in GOW3 or KZ3. More links to disprove you? I think so
"looking at our demo video, we think it looks quite comparable to 8x MSAA"
At below: I'm not gonna go ahead and say "fail" or anything, but you do know you're posting screens of the inferior PC ATI MLAA? I'm talking about the PS3's GOW3 MLAA which is equivalent to ~ or above 8xMSAA. You can CLEARLY understand that, right?
How about, try posting pictures that are large enough to actually show the differences clearly.
4XMSAA looks better than MLAA. You can CLEARLY see the difference here. Specifically, look at the power lines and wires, and how 4XMSAA is nice and smooth, while MLAA has incomplete and choppy wires. MLAA even blurs the ground textures.
"- and that MLAA is a worse form than that employed in GOW3 or KZ3. More links to disprove you? I think so"
"At below: I'm not gonna go ahead and say "fail" or anything, but you do know you're posting screens of the inferior PC ATI MLAA? I'm talking about the PS3's GOW3 MLAA which is equivalent to ~ or above 8xMSAA. You can CLEARLY understand that, right?"
I NEVER even mentioned GOW3 or Killzone 3. I was replying to the fact he stated that the modern PCs can't handle the "sophisticated algorithms" that the Cell can do, which is untrue. I even mentioned how it's GPU bound on PC.
"but you do know you're posting screens of the inferior PC ATI MLAA?"
In fact, you're the one who started posting PC screenshots first, then tried to say it was better than even 4XMSAA. Irony?
@STONEY4 "I NEVER even mentioned GOW3 or Killzone 3. I was replying to the fact he stated that the modern PCs can't handle the "sophisticated algorithms" that the Cell can do, which is untrue"
MLAA is incorporated in GOW3 and Killzone 3 - you didn't have to mention it because I did and I did so because it's related. You also said "You won't be getting the results of... 8XMSAA anytime soon." in reference to consoles - which was wrong as GOW3 MLAA as I proved is = to ~ or above 8xMSAA.
"In fact, you're the one who started posting PC screenshots first, then tried to say it was better than even 4XMSAA. Irony?" No, I posted links to developers (who know much more about it than you do)saying that even the worse form of MLAA on PC is = to or better than 4xMSAA. Again, I'm not going to go all out and say fail but....
I think more to the point is that anyone is quoting fudzilla, they, along ith semiaccurate.com are the two most insane sites in existence, they make anything up for hits.
should be great, I love the way consoles get all the juice out of its hardware
I mean look at the specs of a PC compared to a PS3 these days, and the PC can barely do anything better than a PS3 graphically, imagine what a whole generation better will look like?
although alot of this is down to the production values of the developers behind GOW3 and UC2, alot of PC devleopers simply cannot compete in this area as 'A' they dont have the same amount talent and 'B' there isnt as much money in PC development these days
Add the warm reviews of motion control to the mix and PC's just looks more and more tired, as does spending money on constantly upgrading your rig when less and less AAA titles are made to take advantage to it,
of course there will always be hardware whores, who will swear by the PC and teh KB/M combo (outside of better accuracy does it even have a leg to stand on anymore?) while it loses the big bidget titles year on year, but you cant change these people minds. fanboy will fanboys and I know PC fanoys to be the most stubborn of them all.
I mean the PS3 is gonna be shooter king for 2011, with Killzone 3, Resistance 3 and probably Uncharted 3 (not to metion the multi-plats), who would have thunk that 5 years ago
You're joking right? Where are the sarcasm marks?!?
Here come the fanatical console kids. PS3 destroys PC blah blah Having to upgrade every 2 months blah blah
i got a great pc and a ton of games but i still find myself going back to the ps3 for all of those exclusives...
pc doesn't offer littlebigplanet, gt5, and uncharted, but it does offer tf2, counterstrike, and crysis.. so it's a matter of preference really..
Yeah I love my PS3, I have pretty much every platform going just for their exclusives.
But to suggest a current gen console can compete on raw power with current PC hardware is naive to say the least. But this is N4G after all.
The ps3 cant destroy something that isn't even existent. The pc doesn't have any games compared to consoles, unless you count emulators, but then just goes to point out again that almost every game on pc is also on consoles. BTW, Wow is like 100 years old now, besides that, and Total War > Star Craft BTW, what the hell does the pc have that makes console gaming irrelevant? Superior hardware? I dont play hardware, I play games, games that you pc dudes dont play cause your too busy pirating and modding 10 year old games all day. Boom.
Good point, i'm a big PC gamer and i also see games on PC that's just all about higher resolution like 1080p and grafichs/visual or lithing is still far behind.
The PC can so much more, but it's all about money and all those multiplats will on PC look little bit better on 360/PC platformen.
When we speak about PS3 exclusive, you damn right, it's a shame that most multplat developers ignore and bumping down the game becouse of the consoles.
Look at starcraft 2, it's also easy done on both platformen like PS3 and 360, you only need to worry is about the resolution ;)
----------------------------- ------------------------------ - --
I think you don't get the point, PC games is not it was use to be.
----------------------------- ------------------------------- --
"maybe the next consoles will do 1080p"
As far as i know, the PS3 is only platform use true FULL HD resolution.
"oh and after kinect and move fail we will have new consoles to laught at fall 2011"
If you talk like this, no one take you serious. Try to explain why instead of blabbing.
"I mean look at the specs of a PC compared to a PS3 these days, and the PC can barely do anything better than a PS3 graphically, imagine what a whole generation better will look like?"
1920x1200 at over 100fps on alot of these console ports, takes a LOT of processing power. The multiplatform devs never try to take advantage of the PC though. No game should ever be running at that FPS on a mid-range GPU.
Oh, and Crysis and Metro 2033. That's all I have to say about graphics.
But the 360s GPU can already do it right? Or shouldnt I believe what I read in the comment sections :)
the 360's gpu really CAN do tessellation...just not nearly as well as any DX11 gpu :)
maybe the next consoles will do 1080p....
by that time 1600p will be the standard
for some of us it already is.....
black-ops on ps3 and 360 will be [email protected]
here's the perfect screen for console owners;
oh and after kinect and move fail we will have new consoles to laught at fall 2011
"for some of us it already is..... "
Hey you said it your self, you are most definitely a minority. Noone cares about your self righteousness or your hardware. Its all about being universal, and catering to everyone, not just the vocal minority. Now go back to playing your 10 year old games in 1600p. LOL.
on battle.net for 2 games, starcraft 2 and world of warcraft than are on all 3 consoles online any time of any day ever!!!
And isnt dying just now the only good things to play on PC are MMOs and RTS games like WoW/WC/SC etc. I have a really sick gaming rig and ill still buy games like cod on my ps3 over my pc. Also there arent many dedicated PC studios because most studios are bought to be dedicated to consoles meaning majority of the good games are only found on consoles.
BTW you PC fanboys make me be embarrassed to be a PC gamer have to say PC fanboys have the largest superiority complex I ever seen.
Also I dont see nex-gen system at least from Sony until 2014
100% agree with you, can't imagine how/why you could disagree with that tbh.
2014? Lets hope not, by that time you'll have handholds that'll out perform it. They'll continue PS3 support like they have the PS2, but you'll see a new console by the end of 2012.
the dragging economy will hold back the nex-gen. Unless something ground-breaking comes out within the next 2 years to warrant new consoles I dont see them out until 2014 and announced in 2013.
Consoles are PC's in disguise people , they are fundamently designed the same.
Only difference is a PC's power is not limited, it is raw computing entertainment. You can upgrade or buy a new one whenever.
Consoles are hardware built to sell in a timecycle of around 5-10 years and have a company or more pushing the platform with exclusives... These are the only differences really.
Don't hate on consoles. Console yourselves by playing games.
Most console gamers think
Wii > PC
DSi > PC
In every way, but that is becuase they are not all there
I have all consoles this generation and my PC RIG just owns them and I enjoy my PC RIG way more :)
I have Wii and DS emulators and I could get a PSP emulator, just wait with in the next 10 years we will have PS3 and 360 emulator. no console game is exclusive
Also you can't achieve Tessellation on CPU or non supported GPU meaning the Cell nor the RSX can do it.
MLAA is inferior to 4xAA. I run 32xAA or 8xSSAA
The worse form of MLAA, compared to the GOW3 version, on pc is worse than 4xmsaa. The GOW3 MLAA is equal to and sometimes better than 8xMSAA
" When looking at MLAA quality compared to MSAA quality we actually find that MLAA quality looks as good as, or even better than 8X MSAA! "
- and that MLAA is a worse form than that employed in GOW3 or KZ3.
HardOCP are out of their mind. Their tiny screenshots are useless, and the conclusions they draw could not be more flawed.
MLAA takes an educated guess at which edges need to be anti-aliased and then smooths them without any available sub-pixel data.
Post processing an existing frame always causes a loss of detail, there are no two ways about it.
Sure, the edges may lack aliasing, comparable to 8x MSAA. But high frequency texture detail gets smoothed over as well. It's nothing more than a compromise, and calling it "better than MSAA" is simply ludicrous.
So you're denying picture proof and professionals just because it doesn't suit your fanboy opinion? LOL ct03 that's stupid. It even proves that the loss of detail is non-existant and actually gives you a better IQ than 8xMSAA. Dont forget that this is the PC version of MLAA which is quite a bit worse than whats being seen on ps3 today. High frequency texture detail, as seen from the screenshot comparisons, is not lost
* Global retail PC game sales: $2.37 billion (23% decrease)
* Global digital PC game sales: $5.09 billion (78% increase)
* Global in-game PC ad sales: $1.32 billion (26.8% increase)
* Global subscription and microtransactions: >$5.98 billion (unknown % increase)
* Total 2009 global PC game sales: $14.76 billion-plus (minimum 13.5% increase)
Over 30 Million DirectX 11 cards from AMD/ ATi and Nvidia in just over 1 year.
More than all console combined in terms of sales
With the average cost of a GPU more that PS3, 360 or Wii
So they cost more than consoles on average and they have out sold all console yet PC gaming is dying not quiet sure how that works! confused
30 million Steam accounts, 3 million concurrent user per day and 6 million unique users per day.
Remember Playstation Network and Xbox Live are mandatory system for PS3 and 360
Remember Steam or any other system on PC is not mandatory, there is no real way to measure user base
The money Various PC games brings in by selling digital items in MMO's is insane. It is growing in ways people don't think about.
Think about the gold farmer ...people make money selling in game currency , leveling services etc.
People make a living playing pc games ...this is the opposite of death.
MMO's are basically the PC's Exclusives, and they are growing in # exponentially. The vast majority are wow clones but the MMO is slowly becoming more diverse.
it is about the games not the hardware. the choice is just too limited no matter what you spin. fact is fact. piracy ruined PC gaming. your Dx11 cards you are talking about... don't make me laugh, are they high-end cards? otherwise they can't actually run DX11 well enough to bother. these are usually referred to as "hey it is better than on board at least" so your 30 million are split between general purpose and gaming cards. these cards boost the performance of other software these days to be solely used for gaming (photoshop CS5 for eg.) and it is far from a 50/50 split. stop the BS
just uneducated assumptions
The choice of games is too limited? My choice of PC games reaches back more than 20 years.
The available catalog of games by far exceeds anything your PS360 has to offer.
Uneducated at that, you don't have clue what you're talking about.
I think he means you're missing out on this generations best games - the ps3 and some 360 exclusives - if you just game on the multiplat machine (PC)
lol I'm not poor dude, I have all the system, though I haven't touched my PS3 since God of War 3, whenever GT5 comes out, I'll dust it off.
1.steam accounts can be made by anyone and are only limited by game purchases and email accounts. Ie, many people can have many accounts.
2. high end graphics cards are often bought by companies to facilitate cadd.
Hold your head in shame as well for not having a clue.
Show me CAD cards on the Video Card Description section.
FYI CAD cards are Quatro and Fire GL
You should have probably went with the "PC gaming is dying" response
Yay! Tesselation! what's that? Yaaay.
360 already supports tessellation
Does it support it? Yes.
Is it powerful enough to really utilize it? No.
So many uninformed console noobs here...
Then again, there's so many uninformed PC nerds here that don't even understand MLAA
support jaggies everywhere, muddy low res textures, pop-in like crazy, low, sub-hd resoulutions, day one dlc that is already on the disc, pay to play peer to peer servers and so much more....
unfortuantely they almost never support dedicated servers, free mods, user defined multiplayer gaming, 1080p.... 1080p shit, I feel lucky when a console game I RENT supports 720p
PS3 supports jaggies everywhere? have you even heard of MLAA? It's better than 8xMSAA in the God Of War 3 implementation and looks to be just as good in LBP2 and Killzone 3. I feel bad you can't play any ps3 exclusives - they're the best games of this generation and you're missing out big time lol!
the 360 already has a hardware tessellator as part of the gpu. Halo wars makes great use of it in rendering the terrain.
The ps3 has software support of tessellation which is included in the software development packages that sony sends out.
runs at 20 frames per second when nothings going on...in a huge battle it bogs down to like 12....it should have been on the pc, where rts,mmo, fps, and rpg games belong, consoles are great for those fake band games and motion control that all the soccer moms are into.

The Law Office of Amy Muth, PLLC, defends individuals against the long-term consequences of sex crime convictions in Seattle, Washington, and surrounding areas. These consequences typically involve more than just incarceration, leaving individuals to cope with challenges of being a registered sex offender.
If an individual has already been convicted of a sex crime, Washington law allows for removal from the sex offender registry under specific circumstances.
To petition for removal from the sex offender registry, first, you must determine that you are eligible to petition. Then, you must prepare a petition for the court to review. That petition must consider the following 13 criteria:
- The nature of the offense committed, including the number of victims and the length of the offense history
- Any criminal history subsequent to the offense in question
- Compliance with supervisory requirements after the initial conviction
- How long ago the incident occurred
- Input from community corrections officers, law enforcement, treatment providers, etc.
- Participation in appropriate sex offender treatment program
- Participation in other required treatment and rehabilitative programs
- Whether or not the offender has stable employment and housing
- The offender's support system either in the community or in his or her personal life
- Assessments provided by qualified professionals regarding risk of repeat offenses
- Updated polygraph exam results
- Input from the victim
- Any other factors the court may consider relevant
There are many factors to consider in determining whether you can petition to remove the obligation to register as a sex offender and in preparing a sex offender petition that a judge will seriously consider. Judges do not always grant these petitions. Working with an experienced sex offender registration attorney will give you the best chance at removing this onerous label.
Amy Muth has built a reputation as a highly skilled defense attorney and has successfully petitioned courts in Thurston County, King County, Kitsap County, Pierce County, Snohomish County, Franklin County and Walla County to relieve her clients of this requirement. She has testified before the Washington Legislature on these laws and has written articles on how to successfully argue these petitions.
Schedule a free, confidential initial consultation online or by telephone at 866-235-0030 or 866-235-0030 to discuss the details of your case and how the Law Office of Amy Muth, PLLC, can help.

The State and administration have become subordinate to Brahmins out of selfishness. The brahmin has also subordinated himself to evil things. He simply concentrated, his being to be recognised as superior by birth. For the sake of it he protects god. Yet, he does not endeavour to rise up above others in any quality He is not worried at all to be superior in the display of virtues in life.

(The writer is an advocate practising in the Madras High Court, Chennai. She is the Propaganda Secretary of Dravidar Kazhagam. She is an active leader and promoter of Periyar's ideals.)
In the year 1938 the eminent women in social life of Tamil Nadu, convened a women's conference at Chennai. Among the resolutions for advancement of the society and improvement in the status of women, the conference lauded the contribution of One Man, who stood and fought against the slavery of women in all sphere of life and conferred on him the title 'Periyar'. Yes, he opposed the norms, customs, beliefs, faiths, Religion and God by which ever name it is called to subjugate the women and deny her due rights and dignity, he raged a war against that. When those beliefs claimed immunity under the umbrage of Religion, he declared to be the arch enemy of Religion. When the priests placed the God as the shield he gave the clarion call to form a Godless society, against all inequalities. That Man was Periyar E.V.Ramasamy Popularly known as Periyar. The Revolutionary leader was the philosopher and founder of the movement built up to demolish the dilapidated social structure and to treat the minds which were religiously infected against half of the human community. Until his demise in the year 1973 he continued the tireless fight against the inequality of women. The declarations of Periyar form the basis and foundation for feminist ideology in India.
A comparative study of the status of women in Tamil Nadu in the beginning of the 20th century with that of the 21st century will reveal the journey of women from the state of the undignified and the unrecognized. Bravery to the assert empowered and awakened women to claim the right in all walks of life. This change was achieved by Periyar and his contributions towards this achievement are incomparable till date.
The role played by Periyar as a Feminist is not yet recognized by many of the women's movements and Associations in India because they are led by women who belong to the upper caste and upper class, the supremacy of whom was challenged by Periyar. Periyar was the Pioneer of Feminism in India and no philosopher had reached the heights that Periyar reached in his philosophy and practice to bring in the change in society both in thinking and in action.
The uniqueness of Periyar and his feminist ideology is that his concern for women flows from his innate sense of equality and justice. Periyar was born in the year 1879. He married at the age of 19 and developed comradeship with his wife Nagammai. He insisted his wife to call him comrade. He took her to political meetings. Periyar encouraged his younger sister Kannammal also to take part in public life, taking part in meetings, conferences, pluckettings, protests and facing imprisonment are uncommon in the early decades of 20th century. But the acts of Periyar reveal that his mind was not inhibited by the social and religious bias against women.
The second phase of his approach towards women's issues could be identified from the incident that he decided to perform remarriage to his niece who became a window after a child marriage. The wrath of parents, close relatives and the community was treated like dust by Periyar. The priority for Periyar was protecting the young girl from falling into dangerous rites of widowhood. This natural instinct to fight for the right of voiceless women formed the pavement for his zealous travel for equality of women.
Periyar was actively leading the National movement and prior to that he was holding public posts including the Chairman of Erode Municipality. During those days it was the responsibilities of the Municipal Chairman and Commissioners to visit the temples and verify the accounts and properties and check whether the procedures were followed as per religious norms. During those visits Periyar had seen women in different age groups staying in the temple as Devatasis appointed and paid by Government fund. The women who crossed the age for dancing were granted pension by Municipality. In practice those women were subjected to sexual exploitation by the wealthy and powerful men and the temple priests. The Devatasi sold her rights for consideration and a young woman entered the temple to her place. Though this practice was associated with Hindu temple and religious faiths, Periyar decided to eliminate this practice to save the women from subjecting to prostitution in the name of God, religion and arts. He abolished the 'transferable right' of the Devatasi status and then declined to fill up the post of Devatasi fallen vacant due to the death or retirement of the incumbent Devatasi. This action also faced opposition from religious leaders. But Periyar never gave up his decision and proceeded with his reformative action.
Periyar raised serious questions about the connection between the superstious beliefs, in equal treatment, coerced sacrifices and harassments inflicted on women on the one hand, praising the women for her motherhood, worshipping women as goddesses, attributing superlative qualities of patience and tolerance on the other hand. All queries against the sufferings of a woman received two answers. One was that it is her fate and the other answer was that it was destined by god and religious rules. Therefore she had no option expect to undergo the suffering with endurance. Periyar refused to accept the religious practice and declared that women need not be afraid of those holy rules and none could prevent women from living her life with human dignity.
To march towards his goal Periyar convened meetings, and conferences, and passed resolutions against the unscientific practice and the rule of religion and society.
1. Making education a fundamental right of women.
2. Empowerment with priority in the departmen where women can be preferred.
3. Sharing power in politics and government by reserving 50% seats to women.
4. Training in hard core jobs to eliminate the identification of weaker sex.
5. Imparting Technical education to women and make them capable of handling the modern technology.
Periyar insisted the Governments to implement the above decisions and passed resolutions demanding the reservation and priority in education and employment for women in the conference of Self Respect Movement convened at Chengalpet (near Chennai) in the year 1929. This conference was the pioneer in advocating the social rights of women and this was the triggering point for entry of more women into social reformation movement. The concern and empathy of Periyar on women had resulted in demanding the social rights identically called by the feminist as social Feminism.
The ideological fight against the age old theories of religion was started parallel to the social demands by Periyar. Periyar questioned each and every condition imposed on women. He criticized the life of "A woman who was dependent on her husband for two square meal and a pair of clothes and shelter. In return the women should work at home from morning till night serving the husband with utmost obedience, bearing his tortures and still worshipping him as her god, giving birth to his children and remaining chaste and loyal to him." Periyar was the only man who questioned this life and asked, "Why should a woman endure this humiliation" Periyar rejected the 'glory' attached to the sacrifices of women for the sake of the husband. He rejected the stories portraying women in the light of 'glory' for her loyalty to her husband and he called the women to come out of those images and role models. The stories created to stereo type women into those moulding of a proud slave to husband were subjects to enquiry by Periyar.The greatness attached to such women characters were criticized by Periyar as 'stupidity'
The intellectual area of Periyar's travel pertaining to the physical and sexual rights of women was comparable only to the analysis of Simon Debourair the renowned feminist. Periyar identified the cause of secondary status of women in family is the hierarchy inbuilt in the social system having the family as its basic unit. Periyar firmly held that unless the family system is demolished the women can never be liberated. In addition to that Periyar analysed the founding factors of Justification for subjecting a woman into slavery by way of family. The family has constructed the kitchen for the women and the hall for the men. The supremacy of man was attached to his birth and the birth of a girl child was considered to be a woe and cumulative loss of money and prestige of the family. The denial of education was due to the fear that once she gets education she will learn to write love letter and will marry out of caste. If she is permitted to move freely she will fall in love with other caste man and thus the social order will be destroyed. This was the predominant ideology of the people who were ruled by Hindu Dharma or sanadana Dharma. To change this inequality and hierarchy of the society the religious rule was challenged by Periyar.
The strong dosage of criticism and condemnation of Periyar about the Manu smiriti, the legal text of Manu who was considered to be a saint and scholar by the Hindu Brahmins and upper caste people, spread shock waves in the society. Periyar questioned the rule of Manu prescribed conditions to women such as "when young a woman is a slave to her father at youth she becomes a slave to her husband in old age she will be a slave to her sons. No woman is entitled to be free at any age.
Periyar quoted this condition of Manu in public meeting and awakened the women folk to come out of the religious clutches. While condemning the Hindu religious rules and portrayals of women, Periyar criticized the condition of women in Christianity and the imposition of pardha in Islam. Periyar questioned the story of Virgin Mary as to why the mother of the god was projected as Virgin. The ideology of Periyar about the family system and questioning the role of women, calling women to come out from the religious clutches are known in the western theory as reformative feminist ideology.
The Radical principles of Periyar and his space in describing the personal rights of women could be found only in Radical Feminism.
The social rights were claimed through the claim for equality. The rejection of family conditions and its confining mechanism led to fight for identification of individual rights of women. The next of the struggle was carried by Periyar to an unimaginable plight in the history. In this sphere Periyar conducted self respect marriages and he travelled extensively into remote villages. He converted the wedding stage as his stage for propaganda. He spoke of the matters of womans individuality, right to marriage and remarriage, refusing to undergo the widowhood, right to sexual desire, having control over the womb, refusing to give birth. They were all addressed in self respect marriages held in hundreds and thousands attended by huge gathering of women and men.
This kind of propaganda to address the women's rights and feminist ideas were not thought of by any other reformer or revolutionary in any part of the world.
The radical ideas of Periyar on women rights were shocking the people. His call to women to remove the uterus, 'if it is the cause for her suffering and to have her womb under her control were not easily digestible to the society. The resolution passed in 'Salem conference' in the year 1944, declaring that if a married woman falls in love with some one else she should have a right to divorce her husband and marry the man of her choice' was misrepresented by the upper caste media, attaching stigma to the resolution as though Periyar recommended immorality.
Periyar left no stone unturned in his ideological fight and research for the cause of inequality and gender bias. Periyar questioned the formulation of language as favoring men against women. In English. words like the human and history form the biases of reference. Likewise Periyar questioned the language and literature for its gender biased formation. Great epics were torn into pieces for its inhuman treatment of women. Periyar questioned the importance of chastity and asked why such morals are not imposed on men and how women alone could protect morals when men are licensed to be immoral.
Periyar not only wrote but also addressed the meeting and declared that "morality cannot be one way traffic".
The series of articles Periyar wrote on the topic "why a woman became a slave?" is a rare collection of feminist principles which contain the ingredients of all schools of Feminism. Thus Periyar Feminism is unique.
Periyar believed that with development of science and technology human being will advance and the bias and prejudices against women will whither away. Though women have moved many steps further the globalization of consumer end marketing economy and renewal of religious identities are once again taking our world back to the 19th century.
The recent increase in killing of new born female children, and the failure of Government efforts to combat the fall of sex ratio of women into 920:1000 are cautioning and reminding us that we need a renaissance promoting Periyar Feminism and propagating among men and women once again as Periyar did. Time alarms the society to start it forthwith.
Dr.K.Veeramani: I have to quote here the definition given by Baba Saheb Dr.B.R.Ambedkar for the word Brahminism.
1. Brahmins uphold the sense of superiority and inferiority among various classes of people.
2. Brahmins totally neglect Sudras and Untouchables.
3. Brahmins totally prevent Sudras and Untouchables from getting education and educational opportunities.
4. Brahmins totally prevent Sudras and Untouchables from occupying any posts or positions of power.
5. Brahmins impose a ban for possession of assets by Sudras and Untouchables.
These are the qualities of Brahmins listed out by Dr.Ambedkar. Brahmins are upholders of these qualities. Therefore, is it possible to oppose Brahminism alone, without opposing Brahmins? Can you fight with a shadow, leaving the figure causing the shadow unopposed? No individual is our enemy.

Rationalism is the exercise of human intelligence, which is the very antithesis of obscurantism and blind faith.
What do you think about it?
It offers solutions for all problems, whether it be of family or business, national or international.
Do you find rationalism a social need?
Rationalism is a need for all thought and action and so it is for those in the society.
What do you think of Periyar's ideology of rationalism?
Periyar's ideology of rationalism is not different from what was understood by Socrates or Thiruvalluvar and other great thinkers of the world.
What do you find as unique about Periyar's rationalism?
Periyar's message was unique, because it was a clarion call to a society steeped in ignorance and degraded by discrimination on the basis of caste, creed, religion and gender.
Moral and ethical codes are believed to ensure social security. Do you think rationalism is comprehensive enough to ensure social security?
Remedy for lack of social security for the poor and the under-privileged in the society, lies in rational planning and resolute execution.
We are well aware of your prowess and great expertise in financial matters. How far have successive Governments of Independent India incorporated Social Justice in their economic policies?
Social justice is one of the goals enshrined in the Constitution, Preamble, Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles. Accent in our economic policies depend upon their benefits trickling down to the poor. Except in some States like Tamilnadu, there is little job reservation and effective public distribution system. Food security has just been announced by the Central Government. There is still a long way to go.
Has India achieved sufficient economic growth proportionate to her resources? If not, what are the reasons? Which of them would you consider as most critical? Can you also suggest suitable remedies?
Growth has been tardy. Education is still the most critical factor. Superstition has led to abandonment of Sethusamuduram project, while Koodangulam project is having its hiccups, showing how ignorance has stalled the progress in these two programmes, which if completed would have changed the map of South India. Linking of rivers and national water grid are other urgent matters to avoid impending disputes and disasters. Policies are not ambitious and implementation is slow. Widespread corruption shows no signs of abatement. But our high savings rates, the stock of idle gold, hoards of Indian money abroad, availability of skilled work force are some of the positive factors waiting to be channelised for economic development.
Today the whole of India is swept over by the controversial proposal allowing Foreign Direct Investments in the retail trade of India. There is also a proposal to allow foreign universities to take over the University educational scene in India. Is the Government of India justified in this move? Who will be the real and ultimate beneficiaries if this plan comes into force?
Foreign direct investment is necessary, but it cannot be at the cost of local industries. Most countries protect their vital interest as for example in the matter of agriculture. U.S. action against "bleeding Madras" to protect even textile industries in the U.S. cannot be forgotten. While foreign capital for infrastructure development and manufacture of capital goods is welcome, there is no urgency for opening the door for retail trade. There can be free movement of capital, goods and services, when rigid immigration laws keep out man. Free ingress of foreign capital in retail trade will increase unemployment. But then, need for protection of employment oriented lines of activities like retail trade and handlooms are necessary. One has to recall the closure of local industries in aerated waters, washing soaps, printing presses, etc., which has given employment to a large number, have vanished because of competition of large business houses in India itself, so that protection of small and medium scale industries is a national priority.
Periyar is known for his excellent management of money matters. Your comments.
Periyar was known for frugal use of money. Institutions, which he had founded stand as a testimony to his organizing capacity and his wisdom in money matters.
The Drividar Kazhagam is managing a massive education programme with innumerable institutions based on the most cherished ideals of Periyar. What is your assessment of the financial management in all these schemes?
Financial management of Periyar institutions is a model for public institutions. Though limited in resources, bank loans and close monitoring of available funds has helped their significant growth. In view of some familiarity with its finances, I can boldly say that the institutions are best managed.
What constructive suggestions you would like to offer for "Globalisation of Periyar" – a theme taken by Dr.K.Veeramani and his D.K. Movement.
Globalisation of Periyar is meant to create awareness of the need for breathing every action with rationalism showing by example what Periyar could achieve in a country, which was badly in need of reform. Wherever there is suppression of human rights, Periyar's thought and the yeomen service rendered by the Periyar tribe under the leadership of its mentor Dr. K. Veeramani has been welcomed. Like-minded movements across the world are joining hands to rationalise the population world over.
15. Other than the above points, would you like to say anything else? If so, please state it briefly.
It is my wish and hope that existing media efforts should have better reach in other languages and across the world. Television is a source yet to be exploited.

Wreath of Gold
Hi friends!!! Today I wanted to share a card with you that I made for my dear friend. I recently helped her move and was thinking I wanted something "warm" and yet something that wasn't to Christmas looking nor to Thanksgiving to send her a little blessing... know what I mean??
I decided to use Gina K's "Winter Wonderland Stamp TV Kit" and heat emboss the wreath. I LOVE the warmth that the gold and wine color give to each other. My base card is Gina K's Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight "Wine with Everything" layered with the fabulous "Good as Gold" metallic card stock. That awesome DP is also from the New Stamp TV Kit!!1 Isn't is perfect?!! It has a bit of a gloss to it and I just love it!!!
I used my Circle Nestabilities to layer with the Scallop Circle Nestabilities and raised it all up with a few pop dots. A gold ribbon I found in my stash and a branch punch with a few crystal gems which I colored with my Copics added just what I wanted to this simple but "warm" card.
On the inside I simply used my Tim Holtz Distress Ink, Antique Linen, to add to the white card stock and a simple strip of the DP and my gold metallic ribbon. I really like how this all came together and was completely shocked when two MEN told me how nice a card it was. (Occupants in the building My Studio is in.)
I can see this being a non-traditional Christmas card as well with many different sentiments.
Thanks for stopping by today and have a great day!!! *smile*

The stark image is typical of As It Is, a DVD based on real testimonies of gang members in Glasgow's Easterhouse estate. It is designed to be used in classrooms and youth groups with children as young as 10. The film - a result of work between Glasgow-based production company Autonomi, community groups, and Strathclyde Police - aims to dissuade young people from gang-fighting, but allows CCTV recordings to speak for themselves.
The footage portrays, not the airbrushed, choreographed violence of Hollywood, but the ugly, lurching violence of the street. It is intercut with young people explaining why gang-fighting appeals; the film-makers eschew the type of moralising voiceover that washes over sceptical youngsters.
"If there's loads of youse and there's loads of them, and you're all getting chased down the lane or whatever, it gets the adrenaline goin' and a' that," says one boy.
"It makes you feel good if people are scared of you," says another.
But most interviewees show no relish; they are softly spoken and matter-of-fact. A girl of about 13 says: "If you're fighting with another lassie who's carrying a blade, then obviously she's going to try and stab you. There's always something about anyway - like glass and a' that - so you can just pick it up and hit them with it."
The little bravado on display in the 15-minute film quickly elides into regret and sombre reflection.
"It's like an addiction - that's exactly what it is, an addiction," says one boy of his involvement.
An adult former gang member says: "People still want to get me. It's going to be like that for the rest of my life because of my teenage years of gang-fighting."
There is a chilling coda to the CCTV footage: a prone body is repeatedly kicked and punched by a blur of around six assailants.
Then the after-effects of violence are seen: there is lingering footage of an attack victim in hospital with a grisly laceration between his thumb and forefinger and a gaping wound on his shoulder.
Gordon Shaw, headteacher at Lochend Community High in Easterhouse, believes the film is "unprecedented" in its depiction of gang violence, which has left rooms of youngsters in stunned silence. "There hasn't really been anything as graphic and hard-hitting as that," he says. "I think that's really been a major source of the impact. I was concerned that it might glorify with the bravado you see, but that quickly fades and you begin to see the consequences of the actions."
Mr Shaw believes the film can also help staff understand the issues better. "Teachers find it very difficult to comprehend," he says. "Most of us come into school in the morning and leave at the end of the day, but the youngsters here are facing very challenging circumstances in the evenings - their brothers, sisters and even parents might be involved in territorial activity."
Jimmy Wilson, of community project Family Action, in Rogerfield and Easterhouse, helped persuade young people to be interviewed for the film. It took a year for filmmakers to gain trust and get their remarkably open interviews, and he describes the results as "unheard of".
Mr Wilson believes the film provides a short, sharp shock, but will have little longer term use unless it is part of intensive work lasting several weeks. He says territorialism and gangs became deep-rooted in Easterhouse after poor town planning in the 1950s left the huge new estate with few amenities and employers.
Many gang members are following in the footsteps of parents, siblings and even grandparents, but Mr Wilson says only about 5 per cent of Easterhouse's young people are in gangs. Even they do not necessarily think of themselves as being in a gang - to them it is just a group of friends, and only their rivals are in gangs. "These young people, many of them come from broken homes where they have family that potentially are using substances," says Mr Wilson. "They use gang membership as a substitute family."
He stresses that Easterhouse is being revived, thanks to police and community projects and new jobs at the Glasgow Fort shopping centre. But if that does not steer young people away from gangs, the testimony of Hugh Burns at the end of As It Is might.
His son, 13-year-old Hugh Jnr, died fleeing a gang fight in 1996, and he has advice for young viewers: "Imagine how your mum or dad would feel when they go into your room each day and they're hoping to still see you. They can still smell your clothes, and they can still sense you in the house, but you're not there."

SAN FRANCISCO – Rickey Henderson said he doesn't have a problem if manager Bobby Valentine sits him down every once in awhile. Just tell Rickey in advance.
"The only bad thing about is he didn't tell me the night before," said Henderson before yesterday's Mets' 7-2 loss to the Giants.
Unofficially, this is approximately the millionth meeting Henderson's had to discuss his role this season.
When a reporter approached Henderson yesterday, the all-time base-stealer checked with his PR man/Met long reliever Pat Mahomes, who was in charge of keeping track of when Henderson's semi-media boycott (he would answer questions, just not tough ones) ended. Mahomes confirmed it was yesterday.
Henderson met separately with both Valentine and GM Steve Phillips before Wednesday's game in which Henderson didn't start. Valentine explained to Henderson that he started Jon Nunnally against righty Russ Ortiz to get the reserve some at-bats. Henderson said now he is on the "same page" as the manager.
"I just want to know his strategy," the 41-year-old Henderson said.
More importantly is Henderson's strategy as he tries to lift his batting average from .208. Henderson doesn't think he is tracking the ball well enough.
"It's a teeny little thing," said Henderson about hitting.
Phillips faked glee when told Henderson was speaking with the media before adding with a smile, "He is talking to me again, too."
Valentine showed off a new look yesterday, putting Derek Bell in center.
"I rather put [Bell] in center field when Benny [Agbayani's] in the lineup," Valentine said.
The Mets continue their two-week, four-city-trip in Miami tonight. The Mets left on their charter 45 minutes after yesterday's game and expected to get to Florida about 2 or 3 a.m.
"This one doesn't matter as much," said Dennis Cook before his busy game yesterday. "The next one, that's stupid."
The Mets end this month by playing three games in San Diego before going to St. Louis for three more and then three in Los Angeles.
