We're offering our thoughts on why EA's deal with Disney to be the exclusive developer of Star Wars games may not be all that bad. Hear us out and share your thoughts in the comments!
Instead of licensing individual titles to different developers, much as LucasArts did in the past, we recently learned that Disney has opted to work an exclusive multi-year deal with Electronic Arts to develop Star Wars titles for "core audiences" across a variety of platforms. As one might imagine, this wasn't received well by the vast gaming populace. After all, EA has the prestigious honor of 'winning' Consumerist's "Worst Company in America" two years running now. I could spend a couple of paragraphs discussing EA's myriad bungles from recent history or even the less-fun "just ship it" days, but why bother? You all know the story already.

The strikes Bioware has with most gamers came after they became part of EA lol... most gamers don't consider Bioware well Bioware anymore. It's EA and has delivered sup par games in the EA tradition.
EA was possibly the worste choice, sure every one of the big dogs out there has had its issues but none have pissed off gamers more than EA. With all the exclusives EA has (And mess up) the last thing any of us need is for them to get ahold of even more IP's to destroy and keep out of the hands of developers that could have made something decent out of it.
We will see, but I have a hard time understanding why anyone would feel that a company that has won the golden Poo award two years straight was the best choice.
Sim City fiasco
Dragon Age 2
FIFA 13 on Wii
And thats just the tip of the iceberg. EA is despised by a great number of gamers, few EA supporters (Unpaid ones anyways) remain. The constant and ever increasing cash grabs, the addition of cash shops in single player games, the excessive and sometimes intruisive DRM, the lack of inovation, the constant buying and destruction of good developers and IPs, how can this be any good for anyone? Sure Disney gets the EA marketing power but lets be honest, Activision has them beat in Marketing power hands down so it doesn't even make sense from a business perspective.
All in all I think EA was the bottom of the barrel as far as the potential choices here lol.
Unless this is a publicity move and EA lowballed other developers in the hopes this deal would get them back some popularity I don't see how they were a logical choice.
Well I hope EA can actually turn things around , however they are known for turning out dismal games to only shut them down. I guess I might not be playing any star wars games for a very long time.
A new Star Wars MMO is likely? Please thats ridiculous ... besides that MMOs take many years of development and many many millions which nobody in their right mind will invest again after SWTOR, the only thing that might happen is some more Mobile/Web-based browser game but EA won't ever make a real Star Wars MMO again, I am sure of it.
PS: And the story of KOTOR is done for good or worse... but I am sure we will see some stand in RPGs for the new movie timeframe.
When someone does something so utterly moronic that it kills your brain cells at the very thought of it.

I used to love EA and own most of their games that predate the millenium. For over a decade the quality of both their games and service has dwindled to a point of no return. Nowadays I steer clear of all their products, to me they are no more than money hungry wolfs..
Am I the only one who remembers both their glory days AND the day they were named 'the worst company' ?
They need to clean up their act and dsliver proper products. Until then all my hope for a good SW title has died.
I remember those days. When you saw that EA logo on a box, you knew you were getting a high quality product. Now it's hit or miss, really. I love the Dead Space games, and enjoy the new Simcity despite its problems. On the other hand, we have the complete ruination of the Mass Effect & Dragon Age series, the shift of Dead Space to pure action instead of action-horror, the increasing adoption of pay to win DLC, the shooter version of Syndicate (Seriously? Fire the marketing guy who thought THAT would do well), and the destruction of some of the greatest game development studios of all time (Bullfrog, Westwood, Pandemic, Bioware, Origin, etc.)
Oh yeah, and they killed Ultima, one of the most revolutionary series of CRPGs ever created, and home to the greatest CRPGs ever crafted by mortal men (Ultima 7 Parts 1 and 2).
I'm going to keep an open mind about anything they produce before predicting doom, but I'm not getting my hopes up either.
Also, I agree with the quoted poster in that EA obviously paid you to write this piece. I've read actual advertisements which make this piece look about as subtle as a train wreck on a boat by comparison.
It's a sad day indeed when a family is too afraid of reprisals to publicly thank somebody for saving their lives.

Informing people about your thoughts and impressions is not a review, it's a blog.
There's only 3 star wars games I ever liked. The original Kotor, Battlefront 2, and SWG. I would love to see a Kotor 3. And Battlefront 3 would be awesome with Frostbite engine behind it
Edit: oh 4 starwars games, the pod racing game on the N64 was pretty awesome too lol.
Edit 2: lol 5 starwars games, the original force unleashed was good too, I forgot all about it lol. the rest of the starwars games were kinda meh to total cruddiness,
"Strong and bitter words indicate a weak cause" ~Victor Hugo
"According to the announcement, EA "will develop and publish new Star Wars titles for a core gaming audience, spanning all interactive platforms and the most popular game genres, while Disney will retain certain rights to develop new titles within the mobile, social, tablet and online game categories."
What does that even mean?
Every game will be online one way or another in few years
No Mobas for EA ,no StarCraft competition either,no online shooters etc ?
So, did ESO have a successful launch? Yes, yes it did.

Here's the problem. We know what EA does with exclusive deals. Compare Madden and NCAA Football with EA's NHL and Football/soccer titles. The Hockey and Soccer games get substantial improvements year after year. The 'murican football games, for which EA has exclusive rights to player names, have stagnated with each year barely adding enough to not qualify as a mere roster update.
Yeah Dice can make a good shooter. The question is, will EA give them the funding and time they would have if Dice had to compete with Valve or Activision in the Star Wars shooter market?
Also, why are you talking about MMOs? Every news story I read when this broke stated that the licensing deal didn't cover online games, along with mobile and tablet stuff. Was this misreported?
"In the end, they've all got a bevy of unfortunate business decisions and practices under their belt, and this means you'd be likely to see the cash-grab crap titles come out of any one of them, but if I had to "pick my poison", the EA deal looks like the best option to me."
Well said. Hopefully gamers/lamers are a bit more savy prior to the release of any of these types of games, and just ignore them. I doubt that will ever happen, but it's always a possibility.
Thanks for the information. It was a good read.
I will give the OP credit that he makes some good points on the issue. However, SWTOR still is suffering from severe bugs and flawed mechanics due to EA and their greedy impatient ways.
Unless SWTOR somehow manages to pull it's charred and mangled code from the fire of similar SWG-ish doom, I see no reason to believe EA won't trash any future Star Wars titles in a similar fashion.
Yes it is really good to give the worst company in the world, that completly ignore the costumers and destroy game company after game company turning them into shallow husks, and destroying good game licences and turning them into moneygrabbing shadows.... more proof that they are doing the right thing! That is EXACTLY what they need, to know they should continue exactly as planned, it really pays off.
I agree fully. the logic is flawless.
And I ask the same question. How much did they pay you for this commersial? I guess you are filthy rich now?
"This is not a game to be tossed aside lightly.
It should be thrown with great force"
RIP, hopes for SWG 2.0
RIP, new X-Wing vs Tie Fighter or JTL 2
Excellent read. I am not a big fan of EA, but then again they can't continue to get it wrong and make money. They have some of the deepest pockets in the business, so that means funding will be far less of an issue. Look at how Blizzard mucked up Diablo III. Every publisher has it's problems. Let us hope that EA will provide some great star wars entertainment in the future.
Hopefully they will grasp what was wrong with SWTOR and not repeat their mistakes.
EA make most of their money on the console market where people don't really care about the problems EA make simply because they never heard about it.
These are people who simply don't look for information about the company they are about to make more powerful by buying one of their games.
My sister is one of these people who don't really care what companies do. She just accept it and do their bidding like a fool.
My sister is the majority sadly.

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
The Emery High Lady Spartans prepared for their annual ambitious week with a pair of home victories on the Spartan Center basketball court. Emery defeated a good Richfield team 61-48 and absolutely thumped an overmatched Waterford team 72-15 in preparing for this week's four games.
Every December, Emery plays a big schedule to prepare for the February play-offs. This season will see the Spartans host Uintah on Tuesday night and then travel to the St. George area for three games to close out the week. Emery will play at Pine View on Thursday night, play at Dixie Friday night and then stop at Cedar on the way home Saturday.
Against Richfield, Emery trailed after the first quarter 12-10. In the second period, Coach Steve Gordon pulled his starters at 6:32 of the period trailing 16-12. After a brief sideline chat, the starters went back into the game at 5:18 and Emery trailing 15-19.
The game was now all Emery. The Spartans went on a 21-0 run to lead 36-19. The intensity of the five players both individually and as a team shocked the Wildcats. Frankie Komar hit three quick 3-pointers and Jodi Robertson had a couple of baskets including a 3-pointer and four free throws to pace the Spartans. Meagan Pearson hit another 3-pointer and a free throw and Michonne Robertson had a basket and Emery now had a big lead.
In the third quarter, Emery took a beating from the relentless Richfield team but actually won the period 16-15 to lead 54-37.
Four Spartans finished in double figures for scoring for the night. Jodi led the way with 16 points followed closely by Frankie with 13 points. Meagan had 11 points and Michonne had 10 points. Jodi also had 4 steals, Meagan had 7 rebounds, Caitlin Hansen had 3 blocked shots and Michonne had 3 blocks, 3 steals and 4 rebounds. Lacey Montgomery also had 3 steals and 3 points. Sierra Bridgewater had 4 points; Abbie Kay and Tiffany Tuttle each had 2 points.
On Thursday night, Emery had their way with Waterford in all three games. The sophomores and the JVs each won as big as the varsity did. Waterford is a new 3-A team this season that is located in Sandy. They are a private school. Although new to 3-A, they have played 1-A ball the last few years. When they scheduled this game, they believed that they would be decent this season but it appears that hope is still off in the future.
There is not a lot you can say about this game other than the girls really needed a breather after a rigorous season so far. Emery won the first period 20-8 which at least gave us hope that this would be a game unlike the first two of the night, but alas it was not to be. Emery won the second period 22-3, the third period 19-1 and the final period 11-3. Everybody in uniform played in the game including a couple of freshmen that returned to the bench.
In the game everyone appeared relaxed as the Spartan shot the ball really well in the game. In the first half, Emery was 7 for 13 on 2-point shots, 7 for 11 on 3-point shots and 7 for 7 at the free throw line. That is a combined 21 for 31 shooting for 67 percent. It is just to bad that they missed those easier 2-point shots that probably were closer to the basket.
Meagan finished with 13 points, Frankie with 12 points and Jodi, Michonne and Lacey with 8 points each. Sierra, Abbie and Tiffany all finished with 6 points each.

The world's best hotels.Get the list.
NEEDHAM, Mass.
NEEDHAM, Mass., Sept. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- TripAdvisor®, the world's largest travel community, today announced the results of its annual business travel survey of more than 1,500 travelers worldwide, revealing that most enjoy it. Sixty-two percent of respondents said they "often" enjoy business travel and 18 percent said they "always" enjoy it. The best part about traveling for work is "seeing new places," according to 34 percent. Business travelers' favorite luxuries are deluxe bedding and high-end bath products.
Business or Pleasure?
Almost half of respondents (49 percent) said they often tie leisure time to business trips to take advantage of the company-expensed travel. This is particularly popular among Americans, as 53 percent often tie leisure time into business travel, compared to 28 percent from the U.K.
Some Less, Some More
Twenty-two percent of business travelers plan to take fewer business trips this year than last, while 18 percent intend to take more.
Fly Trap
With 88 percent flying for business, flight delays and cancellations are, for the second year in a row, the biggest irritant, according to 53 percent, up from 48 percent last year. Thirty-one percent said the recent airline delays and cancellations will affect their business travel plans. Of those, 15 percent will consider driving more for business travel this year, nine percent will consider taking a train, and seven percent will consider more video conferencing. Thirty-nine percent said they have no option but to fly and 30 percent said they choose to fly regardless of the delays and cancellations.
Hotel Highlights
Marriott was the top choice for business for the second consecutive year. Hilton was the second favorite, also for the second year in a row, followed by Sheraton and the Holiday Inn, which tied for third. The most important hotel features according to 30 percent of respondents are location/proximity to meetings, high-speed internet access (26 percent) and onsite dining and room service (19 percent).
Chain Gang
Fifty-nine percent of business travelers "often" stay at the same hotel chain, while seven percent "always" do. Americans are particularly brand loyal, with 66 percent often staying at the same hotel chain, compared to 61 percent of Europeans. The greatest motivation to stay at the same hotel chain is the hotel rewards program, according to 27 percent of respondents. Location was the next most popular factor (18 percent) followed by comfort of rooms (16 percent), rates (13 percent) and familiarity with the brand (13 percent).
Points Well Taken
Seventy-eight percent of business travelers surveyed are members of a hotel points program. Americans are more interested in points, with 85 percent taking part in a hotel points program, compared to 58 percent of Europeans. Fifty-three percent of all respondents said they are "often" loyal to the hotels with which they have points, 10 percent said they are "always" loyal.
Company Nickel and Dimed
Thirty-four percent of business travelers surveyed spend more on food and drink when it's on the company dime. An additional 36 percent tip more generously than they ordinarily would when it is a business expense.
Big Apple Best for Business
New York City was chosen as the top city for business travelers for the second year in a row, followed by Chicago, London, San Francisco and Washington, D.C.
Other Business Travel Tidbits
-- Sixteen percent of business travelers fly into less convenient
"secondary" airports to save money
-- Twenty-five percent of travelers would pay a five to 20 percent premium
for a "business traveler-only" flight
-- Twenty-four percent said their business travel is always based on
lowest fare
-- Six percent of travelers occasionally take longer routes to build up
their frequent flyer miles
-- Twelve percent admit to having visited a strip club while traveling on
"It's interesting that so many business travelers attach leisure time to their business trips, and it may help explain why so many enjoy business travel," said Michele Perry, director of communications for TripAdvisor.

Owen Farrell scored 13 points and spent some time in the sin-bin as Saracens secured top spot with a 23-14 win over Bath.
Owen Farrell scored 13 points and spent some time in the sin-bin as Saracens secured top spot with a 23-14 win over Bath.
Tries from England internationals Farrell, Chris Ashton and Mako Vunipola gave Saracens a convincing win at Allianz Park.
Mark McCall's side bounced back from their Heineken Cup defeat against Toulon last week to seal top-spot in the Aviva Premiership and secure a home tie against Northampton in the play-off semi-finals.
The result, along with Exeter's win over Gloucester, ensured that Bath missed out on a top six finish. Saracens took the lead 12 minutes in as Schalk Brits released Ashton who responded to his Lions snub by scoring his sixth try of the season.
High winds made kicking difficult for both sides as Farrell missed with the conversion attempt but he scored his first points soon after with a penalty as Bath's Guy Mercer was sent to the sin-bin.
Saracens extended their lead as Vunipola further justified his inclusion in the Lions squad by as the prop crashed over on the left wing to put his side 13-0 ahead.
Vunipola was in fine form and his sublime offload allowed Ashton to cross over once again but TMO Graham Hughes ruled that the pass went forward.
The home side were dealt a blow as Farrell was yellow carded for a high tackle on fly-half Tom Heathcote and Bath took full advantage with their first try as Dominic Day gathered from the lineout and Rob Webber touched down from the rolling maul.
Heathcote's conversion cut Bath?s deficit to just six points going into the half-time break but Saracens hit back in the second half as Farrell crossed the whitewash after a line-break from South African scrum-half Neil de Kock.
The England fly-half, being watched by his father and Lions assistant coach Andy Farrell, converted his own try to restore his side's 13 point lead.
Horacio Agulla crashed through the Saracens defence and Heathcote added the extras to give Bath hope midway through the second-half but a second penalty from Farrell sealed the win for the hosts and ended Bath?s hopes of European qualification.
The scorers:
For Saracens:
Tries: Ashton, Vunipola, Farrell
Con: Farrell
Pens: Farrell 2
Yellow Card: Farrell
For Bath:
Tries: Webber, Agulla
Cons: Heathcote 2
Yellow Card: Mercer
Saracens: 15 Chris Wyles, 14 Chris Ashton, 13 Joel Tomkins, 12 Owen Farrell, 11 David Strettle, 10 Charlie Hodgson, 9 Neil de Kock, 8 Jackson Wray, 7 Andy Saull, 6 Kelly Brown, 5 Alistair Hargreaves, 4 Steve Borthwick (c), 3 Matt Stevens, 2 Schalk Brits, 1 Mako Vunipola.
Replacements: 16 John Smit, 17 Rhys Gill, 18 Carlos Nieto, 19 Mouritz Botha, 20 George Kruis, 21 Richard Wigglesworth, 22 Duncan Taylor, 23 Joe Maddock.
Bath: 15 Ollie Devoto, 14 Horacio Agulla, 13 Ben Williams, 12 Kyle Eastmond, 11 Semesa Rokoduguni, 10 Stephen Donald, 9 Michael Claassens, 8 Simon Taylor, 7 Guy Mercer, 6 Francois Louw (c), 5 Dave Attwood, 4 Dominic Day, 3 David Wilson, 2 Rob Webber, 1 Paul James.

I'm adding a "direct vent" AFUE wall furnace rated natural gas fireplace to a family room, and need to run gas pipes from an existing spa heater line at the side of the house, up 10 feet to the patio cover, then around the house to where the fireplace will be, in through the stucco wall, and down to the fireplace. Inside the house, the pipe will be hidden behind a new wall into which the fireplace is mounted.
Total run will be about 50 feet of pipe.
The fireplace max input BTU rating is 22,000.
I'm having difficulty finding accurate info on how to plan the installation, such as required pipe size, whether I'll have to come all the way from the meter or if I can use the spa line? Could I use stainless steel flex pipe to make the connection between the spa and the steel? Is there a sheathing requirement where the pipe comes through the exterior wall?
The pipe will be above ground the entire run. Oh: I live in Southern California.
Any help or guidance anyone can provide would be most appreciated.

Easter tends to bring out the cute and fluffy things in life.
There are the ever-present bunny rabbits, but some might not know about the increasing presence of baby chickens in suburban homes. The chicks, fresh out of their shells, are given as gifts to the delight of youngsters.
"Chicks are the new dog," said Debbie Schacht, who helps run Parker Feed & Supply, a company that has been in business for 42 years along South Parker Road.
The family owned and operated store sells approximately 300 chicks in the two weeks leading up to Easter. And while the chicks bring smiles to the faces of those who receive them, there are a few important things to remember.
Building or buying a quality chicken coop, with access for easy clean up and egg retrieval, is a must. The chicks must be kept inside for warmth during their first 12 weeks. Complying with town ordinances and homeowners association rules is advised, Schacht says, as is having a chicken run and a wire-topped coop that prevents hawks and owls from preying on the pets.
But once the details are taken care of, the chicks can be enjoyable first pets. Schacht, the proud owner of 23 chickens, said they make perfect 4H projects for kids in suburban areas.
"They learn how to take care of them and can sell eggs on the side," she said. "It's a great way for kids to learn responsibility."
Chickens exhibit different personalities. Some are sweet-natured, and some are there strictly to conduct the business of laying eggs. They prefer not to snuggle up.
"Others come running up to me," Schacht says. "One knows her name: Speckles."
The chicks at Parker Feed & Supply arrive by mail from a Missouri hatchery every spring and are sold for between $3 - $4.25, depending on breed. Some breeds, appropriately for Easter, end up laying bright blue, green and pink eggs within 4-5 months.
Of course, it's best to determine whether a child and his or her parents are equipped to handle a baby chick or two before giving them as a gift.
Chicken ownership is on the rise in the suburbs and several Denver-area municipalities adopted revised regulations last year after requests from homeowners who wanted to put coops in their backyards.
Town of Parker ordinances pertaining to chickens:
"No livestock or male fowl capable of crowing shall be kept by any person within the town."
"Domestic, noncommercial use of poultry and/or fowl shall include, but not be limited to, chickens, turkeys, pigeons, exotic birds and ducks. Containment of the poultry or fowl shall be required and not be closer than two hundred (200) feet to any off-site residence or business on an adjoining property. The maximum number of poultry or fowl allowed shall be fifty (50) on any one (1) parcel. Poultry or fowl shall not be allowed for commercial purposes."

Since 1992 Metrolink has provided Southern California commuters with reliable and affordable rail service along its more than 500-mile rail system. Serving more than 50 stations along seven routes in six counties, Metrolink reaches from Ventura to Oceanside, Los Angeles to San Bernardino. In a region where the personal automobile has long been the dominant form of transportation, Metrolink has, in a relatively short time, racked up more than 100 million riders, placing it among the nation's fastest growing commuter rail services.
Many of these rail passengers travel through Fullerton on a daily basis. On any given workday, an average of 3,000 commuters travel through the Fullerton Transportation Center, making it the busiest stop along Metrolink's Orange County route. Ridership along the route grew in 2006 by a record 11 percent over the preceding year. By the year 2020, the anticipated number of Fullerton's boardings and alightings (the amount of commuters either getting on or off a train) is expected to grow to a daily average of 4,000. In response to this projected increase in demand, Metrolink is scheduled to increase its service over the next few years, with a train going through the Fullerton station every 30 minutes before the end of the decade.
You may not know this, but the City of Fullerton is home to the busiest train station in Orange County, providing access to Amtrak and Metrolink rail service, the OCTA bus system, private taxi service, and secure bicycle storage.
Originally developed in the 1970s, the Fullerton Transportation Center (FTC) is centrally located in Fullerton's historic downtown core, which contains a lively mix of urban-scaled housing along with office, retail and entertainment uses.
Fullerton has long been a Southern California leader in passenger rail improvement efforts. The FTC ranks No. 1 in boardings on the Orange County line, and No. 3 on the five-county Metrolink commuter rail system.
With the recent adoption of Senate Bill 375, Fullerton considers the goal of reducing green house gas emissions and vehicle miles traveled a priority.
Through SB 375, local governments will collaborate to promote compact growth patterns and identify emission-reduction goals for the region.
The California High Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA) has identified Fullerton as an optional station on the first Southern California segment of its planned high speed train service.
The CHSRA will evaluate the Fullerton Transportation Center for "skip-stop" service on the Los Angeles-to-Anaheim segment of the high speed rail project. A skip-stop reduces travel times and increases capacity by scheduling some trains to stop at the station while others continue through the station.
On April 27, the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) Board approved Fullerton's Project T grant funding application for $875,000. Project T funds will allow the City to perform preliminary engineering for the proposed expansion of the Transportation Center to include an additional station and loading platform. The Fullerton Redevelopment Agency will provide 11 percent matching funds toward the project.
The City anticipates involving the community, OCTA and CHSRA in both the planning and development of Fullerton's high-speed train station.
For further information or questions regarding the Project T grant funding from OCTA for preliminary engineering of a California High Speed Rail Fullerton Station, contact Nicole Coats, Redevelopment and Economic Development project manager, at (714) 738-4102 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Peru has astounded the world with its huge desert glyphs, ancient empires and a centuries-old surviving culture.
Almost two thousand years ago, the Peruvian ancients drew enormous geoglyphs in the Nazca Desert to communicate with their gods. A millennium later, the Inca built their empire at Machu Picchu, a resplendent city soaring over the Andes. When the Spanish settled Cusco, they founded their beautiful yet devastating colonies of cathedrals, palaces and plazas. Today, these ancient mysteries and stunning sights are just part of Peru's grand story.

The strongest winds were felt on the southern end of the county. In Ferron in the trailer courts skirting was blown from around some trailers. Local residents experienced a lot of roof damage. Sheriff Greg Funk said warm temperatures and the wind have opened up Millsite Reservoir and residents need to be careful when fishing. There was also some damage to the clubhouse roof at the Millsite Golf Course.
Sheriff Funk reported the high winds knocked out a communications tower on Horn Mountain. Currently the tower is operating on generators as there is a problem with the electricity to the site. Problems with cell phones and televisions have resulted from the tower having difficulties.

Not Wide Calf
"The description for the wide calf boots says it is 16". I purchased a size 7 and it is NOT 16". It is much smaller."

Great but not perfect!
"The first time I ordered these, I bought a size 8, regular calf. They came to me in bad condition so I brought them to be exchanged, but there were apparently none left and after alot of hassle I was able to purchase a new pair online a few weeks later.This time, I ordered a size 8.5 , wide calf. Its a very comfy boot, good color and the leather looked good. The seam in the back of the boot wasn't perfect, kind of wrinkly and made the calves look even wider. Overall good boots, I would order a half size up, especially if youre wearing thicker socks for cold weather.Most importantly, these boots are presented as 'weather proof'. I wore them in the snow and after a whole day, there was a little water seepage into the bottom seams around the toes, but nothing crazy. It was also very easy to clean! So I am pretty happy with the purchase."

Just didn't fit right
"I wanted to like these, but when I tried them on it seemed like blister-city waiting to happen. The way the heel is constructed inside the boot is very high on the back of your heel. I felt like if I walked awhile, I would end up with blisters. The toe is narrow as well. Could be a great boot for someone with a narrower foot."

"I have wide calves, but these were way too wide on me. The stiff leather also pressed into the tops of my feet when I walked around. These could be great boots if they fit propery. But they are not for me."

A see-saw encounter at Canberra Stadium saw the Brumbies run out 30-23 winners over the Hurricanes on Friday.
A see-saw encounter at Canberra Stadium saw the Brumbies run out 30-23 winners over the Hurricanes on Friday.
The Brumbies enjoyed the majority of territory throughout but were unable to put the Hurricanes away, setting up a tight finish as the visitors threatened to steal the result late on.
Wallaby contender Christian Lealiifano was impressive with the boot – kicking 20 points including six penalties around tries from Nic White and Peter Kimlin.
Two early penalties for Lealiifano set the Brumbies on their way, the second coming after Scott Fardy received lengthy treatment after being taken out at the lineout.
Beauden Barrett added three points of his own for the visitors but the Brumbies enjoyed the majority of possession and territory early on, Henry Speight coming close but prevented from scoring thanks to an excellent tackle from Conrad Smith.
An overthrow from Dane Coles as the Hurricanes defended a five-metre lineout then cost his side dearly. Misjudging the distance, the ball flew over the top and was gratefully collected by Brumbies scrum-half Nic White for the opening try.
Reynold Lee-Lo instantly responded for the Hurricanes for his first try in Super Rugby, the visitors putting plenty of width on the ball and confusing the Brumbies drift defence to find enough room in the right corner. Barrett's conversion narrowed the scoreline to 11-10.
Scrum dominance from the Brumbies, with Ben Franks penalised for coming in on the angle, handed the hosts a penalty opportunity for Lealiifano who successfully converted to create a four-point lead heading into the interval.
Twice the Brumbies looked certain to score more tries in the red zone, but the Hurricanes last-ditch defence did the job, securing turnover ball and leaving them narrowly trailing 14-10 at half-time.
It was a similar tale at the beginning of the second half except this time the Brumbies were their own worst enemy – twice missing try chances after Mowen was held up and then Tevita Kuridrani lost control going for the line, leaving them forced to settle for a penalty from Lealiifano.
Barrett made them pay with two quick penalties to narrow the gap to a single point at 17-16.
Having brought themselves back within touching distance the Hurricanes then scuppered their comeback. Poor discipline allowed Lealiifano to add two further penalties before the hosts finally found the breakthrough.
Blindside flanker Kimlin burrowed over from close range after confirmation from the TMO for the Brumbies second try of the night – opening up a 30-16 scoreline.
TJ Perenara hit back for his sixth try of the season for the Hurricanes, putting the visitors into bonus-point territory going into the final ten minutes. It was a score that injected new life into the visitors, placing the Brumbies under intense pressure as time ticked away with Perenara pulling the strings.
A crossing penalty against Alapati Leiua handed the Brumbies the breathing space they needed though, clinging on for another home win to keep them at the top of the Australian Conference.
The scorers:
For Brumbies:
Tries: White, Kimlin
Con: Lealiifano
Pens: Lealiifano 6
For Hurricanes:
Tries: Lee-Lo, Perenara
Cons: Barrett 2
Pens: Barrett 3

"I saw this style made by Carlos Santana a year ago, couldn't afford his shoes. When I found the Nina brand made them and that they were on clearance at DSW I was thrilled. I love the ribbon over the top, it makes a simple shoe look dressier and fancier. They fit well, after a few hours walking around they get uncomfortable but not any more than any other pair of heels I have. I have these in red and black, wish I could find the purple in my size"

Did You Know? Countdown to Earth Day 2009 (04/20)
Did You Know?
Facts & Figures about
Celebrating and
Saving Mother Earth
April 20 : 02 days till Earth Day
Did you know that 100 acres of Amazon Rain Forest are being cut down every minute?
Continued deforestation, combined with global warming, will lead to the irreversible destruction of up to 80% of the rain forest over the next 21 years. The loss of the Amazon will rapidly accelerate global warming in countries as far away as India.
Did you know that one in every four mammals faces the threat of extinction?
The world has so far lost 68 animal species, including the "Dodo" bird, the Tasmanian wolf and the Caspian tiger. In fact, all great cats currently face mortal risk. Less than half a century ago, there were 100,000 tigers roaming our planet; today, fewer than 5,000 are still alive in the wild.
Earth Day is a day to both celebrate the environmental victories of the past and to reflect on the many remaining opportunities for improvement. Whether you celebrate Earth Day by attending a rally, signing a petition or switching to highly efficient light bulbs, make an effort to be mindful of the original vision for this day: to serve as a national learn-in for the sake of the environment.
Join our Earth Day celebration as we present a new "Did You Know?" fact each day as we countdown to Earth Day on April 22nd!

Article by Chris Pentago
I am one person who has been fascinated by the virtualization. The idea that software can be able to take a single machine and divide it up to act and feel like several independent systems has never ceased to amaze me. The geniuses that came up with virtualization environments must be some really bright minded individuals.
Well, I have particularly been impressed by the way it can be able to simulate an entire machine with that has all the required hardware such as memory, processors, networking and all the resources user can wish for.
I have a list of some of the virtualization technologies that I have been privileged to try out. Do not worry, I am not exactly the tech junkie that most IT enthusiast are so everything you get from me is nothing short of simple observations without really going into the deep technical stuff.

I have a problem when I try to profile my WCF Service hosted on IIS.
I tried what is describe on the following page : http://documentation.red-gate.com/displ ... plications
The profiler doesn't profile anything and, after some time, I get the following error : "Failed to connect to target process because an exception occured : Could not start IIS
Caused by:
Timed out waiting for port 8013 on 127.0.0.1 to become available".
I don't understand why as this port is not used by any other applications. I tried with other ports with no more success. Everytime, IIS was already started before launching the profiling session.
I used to be able to profile this service with ANTS Performance v7 without any trouble.
Is there any changes since the v7 on that part ?
