THE PLAINS, Ohio — Rebounding leads the Golden Eagles back to the sectional final.
The Belpre boys basketball team out rebounded River Valley 37-to-24 Tuesday night in a 43-32 victory over the Raiders in the sectional semi-final held at Charles McAfee Gymnasium on the campus of Athens High School.
The Golden Eagles (13-9) scored eight points through the first 5:30 of the game, while holding RVHS (3-20) scoreless. River Valley scored back to back buckets in to close the quarter trailing 8-4.
The Raiders scored the opening basket of the second quarter but Belpre went on a 10-0 run, expanding the lead to 12 with 3:00 remaining in the half. The Silver and Black closed the first half with a 4-to-2 spurt and trailed 20-10 at the midway point. The Raiders shot just 5-of-24 (20.8 percent) in the first half of play.
After the intermission BHS went on a 10-to-4 run that put their lead at 16 midway through the third period. River Valley was able to out score BHS 5-to-3 over the remainder of the third but the Golden Eagles hed the 32-19 advantage with eight minutes remaining.
The Raiders had their best offensive period of the night in the fourth, as they turned the ball over just once while shooting 5-of-15 from the field. River Valley out scored Belpre 13-to-10 in the final period but the Orange and Black claimed the 43-32 victory.
"The rebounding hurt us, especially in the first half," River Valley coach Jordan Hill said. "We out rebounded them the first game but we knew coming in with their size and they style of defense that we play, rebounding was going to be critical. We didn't get the job done in the first half and compound that with our shooting percentage, that adds up to the final score."
The Raiders were led by freshman Tyler Twyman with 10 points in the game, followed by John Qualls and Seann Roberts with eight apiece. Joseph Loyd, Jacob Gilmore and Brycen Hatfield each marked two points, rounding out the RVHS scoring.
The Sliver and Black shot 14-of-50 (28 percent) from the field, including 4-of-24 (16.7 percent) from beyond the arc. Twyman and Qualls each accounted for a pair of RVHS triples. River Valley was 0-of-1 from the charity stripe with Qualls attempting the lone free throw on an and-1 situation in the first period. RVHS turned the ball over 14 times in the game.
The Golden Eagles were led by Nick Therriault, Ryan Leasure and Dakota Hoffman with 10 points each, while Bryce Pittenger had eight. Sam Petty added five points, rounding out the BHS scoring.
Belpre shot 16-of-44 (36.4 percent) from the field, including 2-of-10 from beyond the arc. Hoffman accounted for both Golden Eagle three's. BHS was 9-of-14 from the free-throw line for 64.3 percent. Belpre turned over the 14 times in the game.
River Valley was victorious in the first meeting between these teams, which was held at Marietta College as part of the Ohio River Classic. The Raiders won that game 56-52, while holding a 25-16 rebounding advantage in the contest. RVHS shot over 51 percent (23-of-45) in that game.
This marks the final game for River Valley seniors Ethan Dovenbarger, Jacob Gilmore, Joesph Loyd, Kyle Bays and Zack Crow. "Obviously, when you lose any group of seniors it's disappointing," noted Hill.
The victory makes it a season-high three in a row for the Washington County team, while RVHS finishes its season on a seven game skid. This is the first non-conference victory for Belpre this season, as they were 0-5 against non-Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division teams before Tuesday.
Belpre will now face Zane Trace in the sectional final at 3:00 p.m. Saturday at Athens High School. This game will be a rematch of last season's sectional final in which Zane Trace won 57-43.

Bacterial Vaginosis--or--embarrassing bad smell |
May 30 2006, 06:39 PM
Hardcore BUSTie Posts: 424 |
Sassy, if you read up on it, it is one of the biggest side effects of using Vitamin C. I didn't get a yeast infection, just burning so bad that I can't explain it, and the smell is there 10 fold. There's a website you can go to that sells Vaginal Vitamin C made by "Total" and it is only 250mg. So, the 500 may be to hard on the kitty. At least it was on me. And to bleed, after not having periods for over 5yrs, is scarey. I'm debating on buying the Vaginal Vitamin C, but, still waiting for the other crap to get here. The Flagyl or whatever it's called. Once I'm done with that, I'm headed to the doctor. I'm bloated, and have other things going on now. Oh, had sex today, and no smell. So, who knows, maybe the vitamin c did work, or is it the Apple Cidar Vinegar pills I found, which by the way, causes diahrea. (Just an FYI) lol. Bye

neverending: Thanks for the info. Do you think I should use an applicator to put the vitamin C in my vagina? I'm not sure how to deep to insert it...I was planning on doing it overnight. Did anyone else experience yeast infections? I just am very hesitant to trade in BV for yeast, if you know what I mean.

quietmadness:Great detail!This is the same feeling I got from the jamu stick.You took the words right out of my mouth.It does work pretty well but It's still not a cure

Ok, girls!
I went to the Post Office today and picked up the Jamu stick. It came in what I thought was a "plain brown wrapper," but--when I turned the package over, there it was--plain as day--"herbal soap" labeled on a BRIGHT GREEN sticker. Yeah. So, it's shaped like a cigar. Tapered at both ends. Off white, with a few specks in it that are black/grey. Has no scent. It's not like a "soap." It's more like a stick of chalk, but doesn't have the feel of chalk. It's more like a stone, in fact! Ok, so I'm supposed to stick this thing in there, about 2 inches I guess, and swish it around, then rinse thoroughly. Yeah. So I wet the stick, after thoroughly cleaning the "area." I insert it, and swish it around, for probably like 15 seconds or so. What I immediately begin to notice, is that my girl starts to "grab" onto this thing, right? Like she's lost ALL of her lube/discharge, whatever. Then I pick up my trusty clear water douche, and go to rinse this stuff out of there. Yeah. Suddenly, there's no acceptance of the douche nozzle on the part of my girl. Almost none. She doesn't have room for the nozzle, nor does she want to even think about it. She's dry, and tight...but not like "muscle tight," more like--hard to explain--and it's a kind of--DRY tight. Ok. So I'm rinsing her with the plain water, and then I go to dry off the Jamu stick. Like I said, it's more like a stone/chalk like substance. I notice a little bit of the chalky liquid (very miniscule amount) on my fingers, but that just seems to be the stick itself melting away a little with water. It rinses clean very easily, and washes off my hands quickly, with plain water. It's all dry now and back in it's box. I'm inclined to think at first that it's alum. But, coming from an old Southern background, I've done my share of canning vegs/fruits. When you touch alum to your tongue, it immediately begins to draw and tighten on your tongue, and it stays there for a while, with that effect. This is not alum. This stuff is very sour tasting, and does not have a "drawing up" effect on the tongue. Nor does it have a lasting taste. (I only touched the tip of my tongue to the thing, to see if indeed, it was just plain alum...) I don't know what to expect, but after that initial use, I can say that my girl's all nice & dry. EERILY DRY. I have almost forgotten what it feels like to be free of a discharge. If all I get from this thing is *freedom from a DISCHARGE* for a while--it's *WORTH THE PRICE* of admission for me! As for the odor? I'll have to give that a few days to see. Right now, (4 hours past using the stick) she's odor-free...but that could just be from a good cleaning. I'll let Y'all know more, as I will use this thing for a while & see what happens! --Quiet-- |

Hi ladies,
I've been missing in action for a few months. Wanna know why....i thought i was cured. Then...one night...i had sex....and BOOM! my "stuff" exploded!...just kidding. but that sure as hell what it feels like. i was doing the cranberry juice, vitamin, yogurt regimine. I cant tell if the irritation is yeast or BV. Now...i've got to pay to go the doctor. Since when has it started to cost to have sex. I missed the memo that read "have sex, pay the doctor". Also, could it be that i soaked after sex in epsom salt that has caused the irritation? Thoughts? |

neverending: What kind of vitamin C did you buy? Is it like tablet or a gel kind of thing?? How much did you use it? I'm worried about it causing a yeast infection. Do you guys think that's what helped you get more normal down there?

jewelscando:LOL! Girl you are too funny.The more my kitty gets back to normal I say "I remember that smell" It's been a long time but i'm glad to finally be able to smell like I used to.My hubby went down (first in a long time)and said "you smell good down there" I almost cried but what a dork I would be if I cried during sex.It's a shame we have to look for our own cure!What are doctors for again?

No, can't find the Chlorella anywhere here, so I guess I will have to order it online. I did find Apple Cider Vinagar tablets today in the weight loss section at Walgreens. I bought those, thought it couldn't hurt. Can't handle the taste of the liquid. So, I'm using the vitamin C at night before I go to bed and there's no burning when I do it like that. If I use it and I'm walking around, it comes back out in the discharge and I think that's what was burning. So, smell seems to be gone, but who the hell knows anymore. I don't even remember what it's suppossed to smell like.

Well, just an fyi. The vitamin C thing was the absolute worst for me. My B.V. is back so bad, to the point of being able to smell fish when I go pee. And even though I've had b.v. for a long time, it's been a LONG time since that has happened. So, please, be carefull with the vitamin C because it made me bleed, and I've had a hysterectomy. I'm still waiting on the Flagy to come in. I'm headed to Vegas next weekend, so if it doesn't come in by tomorrow, I will wait to take it when I get back. (I need to get drunk!!) hahaha. Anyways, I will check out the website you talked about yvonne, but, please be carefull. It burns bad.

Newbie here, just found this message board about an hour ago. I've only been searching the net a couple of days about BV. I did a round of Flagyl prescribed by my gyno last week. I still have the discharge, but not the smell, and don't want it to come back. I didn't go back to my gyno..what's he gonna do? Prescribe more flagyl probably. So I researched on the internet. I think the first thing I'm going to try is the vitamin C. I saw that study that someone linked to earlier on this thread. I was thinking about using the tablets, but after reading jewel's experience, I'm wary of using it. BUT.. I came across a vaginal form of vitamin C! Shock! (I'm not a spammer, promise. I don't even know how to spam) It's made by the Today company, you know the folks that made that sponge? Apparently they make a lot of stuff. I found the Vaginal vitamin C at feelbest.com. I don't know how to link to it here. I'm thinking of trying it...From what I've read on the 'net the past couple of days, I didn't think there was such a thing.

I went to the health food store and I bought the PH Test strips to test to see if my body was more acidic or alkaline.I found out I was a 5.0 which is really bad.So,I bought some Chlorella and I think I'm going back today to get the Spirulina and I will let you all know how that goes.Here's a little reading on it that I got from a website:
CHLORELLA: This is something you will notice about Chlorella soon after first taking it. Chlorella reproduces at an incredible rate, quadrupling every 48 hours. When eaten, Chlorella causes the beneficial bacteria in our stomach (Lactobacillus) to multiply at four times the normal rate. This improves digestion and thus the body's ability to take in nutrients greatly. Proper digestion, augmented with the necessary enzymes, is one of the keys to great health. Spirulina: It is the richest source of natural antioxidants of any whole-food source. It contains every natural known antioxidant including zinc, manganese, selenium and copper, the amino acid methionine, vitamin E, vitamins B-1 and B-6, the amino acid methionine and of course, beta-carotene. It is rich in chlorophyll, much richer than wheat grass and alfalfa. http://www.watershed.net/preventative_health.htm |

Well, I'm not selling anything. But if you got it to buy?? Let me know, because most of us on here like someone said, would try just about anything. We all know who the serious sufferers are, and we will continue to stick together!! Still bleeding. Guess it's time to head to the doctor. Now the smell is no longer Fish, it smells like throw up, or sour ass. So, I don't know what is worse, fish or this???

neverending: I'm sorry you are back to square one. I really sometimes wish I was a guy so I didn't have to deal with all this crap. (but they have their own problems). I really have no idea how long I've had BV. Only been diagnosed for the last year. Had BV, treated it, treatment cause a yeastie, then a UTI. Been bouncing back and forth between the three. Finally got so feed up that I stopped doing anything at all. (which probably doesn't help either.) The Vitamin C thing is the first I've tried in a while. The OTC meds only seem to make things worse and I really try to avoid taking anything chemical if at all possible. Good luck with Round 2 (or so)!

With Galarraga showing class in the issue and Joyce admitting a mistake, this would go along way in Selig getting respect from baseball fans worldwide as well as feel good response for the City of Detroit, who not only have suffered with the Tigers losing the 163rd game of the year last season, a hockey team losing game 7, a collegiate team losing the national championship game in their own backyard, the local WNBA team leaving...and then the economic situation....the city needs a break and this would at least put some added joy in the hearts on Detroiters if Bud can overrule the field decision and allow what was supposed to be perfect game go on the records books as one without an asterisk.
Oh well Selig must have been upset that Galarraga overshadowed jr griffs retirement announcement?? Selig will not reverse umpire's blown call - MLB - Yahoo! Sports
As published in today's Detroit Free Press Here is Selig's statement: "First, on behalf of Major League Baseball, I congratulate Armando Galarraga on a remarkable pitching performance. All of us who love the game appreciate the historic nature of his effort last night. "The dignity and class of the entire Detroit Tigers organization under such circumstances were truly admirable and embodied good sportsmanship of the highest order. Armando and Detroit manager Jim Leyland are to be commended for their handling of a very difficult situation. I also applaud the courage of umpire Jim Joyce to address this unfortunate situation honestly and directly. Jim's candor illustrates why he has earned the respect of on-field personnel throughout his accomplished career in the Major Leagues since 1989. "As Jim Joyce said in his postgame comments, there is no dispute that last night's game should have ended differently. While the human element has always been an integral part of baseball, it is vital that mistakes on the field be addressed. Given last night's call and other recent events, I will examine our umpiring system, the expanded use of instant replay and all other related features. Before I announce any decisions, I will consult with all appropriate parties, including our two unions and the Special Committee for On-Field Matters, which consists of field managers, general managers, club owners and presidents."
Once the game was allowed to go on, I don't see how you can reverse the call. What if there would have been more hits and Cleveland would have won the game? You clearly can't reverse that the next day. A reversal of a call shouldn't be dependant on the events that happened to occur after it.
A lot of factors....and what ifs here.. If Jackson had not caught the ball, of course then the perfect game could have gone down to a one hitter and even a non-shut out. If Cabrera had stayed on first and allowed Guillen to field the ball it could it still could have gone either way.. but you are right if the Indians would have gone on to score 4 runs and beat the Tigers, then yeah there still would have been a protest and I would doubt if he would reverse that, but since the Tigers got the next man out, and all else was preserved, it would have been good for baseball for him to just over rule the play since his umpires could not meet on the field and do it right then when they had the opportunity to make the right call and send everyone home happy.
Totally agree wirth Dre. Make the right call and the game is over. Cleveland didn't rally or even get a hit. I see no reason not to right the wrong. Can't think of anyone in the universe that would be hurt by it.
The problem is, once they intervene, then it throws the rulebook out the window. Every game becomes subject to review. Every single play and call becomes subject to review. I see and agree with the argument not to recognize it. And I think a lot of good came out of the unfortunate circumstances.
While I agree the "ruling" shouldn't be changed, I feel that The moment should be remembered in the hall of fame for what it was. Not only a perfect game per say but as an example of all that is good with mankind, how both sides acted with class and honor. As it looks to also be a breaking point to help push forward instant reply the game has meaning in many different fronts. My guess is that it will go down as the not perfect game that will be remembered more then most of the perfect games that have taken place over the course of the 100 plus years of MLB.
Nice insight. Much better than Bosco's post, but you need to hush up too! In fact, anyone who disagrees with my view should hush up!
I'm not sure that this post is wirth repeating...even if I agree with its contents. Right the wrong with the stipulation that some form of replay will be instituted by the all star break
Here's another what-if: What if the umpire hadn't completely choked in the biggest moment in the game? It's nice that he apologized and felt real bad about it and stuff, and I don't think his family should be getting death threats, but bottom line - he choked.
How about what if Dontrelle Willis had still been there in the rotation instead of Galarraga??? Means GM would have save $50K instead of giving him that new red Corvette.....

Small, lightweight, and portable, the Skerton is the ideal hand grinder for the traveling coffee enthusiast, or the home enthusiast on a limited budget. The Skerton employs adjustable conical ceramic burrs for grinding any of the wide range of grinds employed in today's coffee market. It can easily handle anything from fine espresso to a coarse French Press setting. The Skerton's detachable 100 gr. glass jar is perfect for collecting the grounds, and in combination with the plastic screw-on lid (included in order) can even double as a storage unit for whole beans on those long trips. After grinding is finished, cleaning the Skerton is as easy as placing the unit in the dishwasher since the entire grinder is dishwasher safe. Whether you desire a quality, handy grinder for the road or enjoy the fine art of manual coffee preparation, the Hario Skerton is the ideal candidate. For an even more portable hand grinder from Hario, check out the Mini Mill (for a more detailed comparison of the two grinders, check out this blog post: Hario Skerton vs. Mini Mill).
When it comes to serving freshly brewed coffee in a commercial setting, one key dilemma has continually arisen. How can a commercial, high volume coffee shop make quick, fresh coffee without sacrificing quality? The solution has been either (1) to slightly sacrifice quality by making a large amount of drip coffee every hour or so, or (2) to preserve quality but to slow down production and possibly lose a potential profit with single-cup brewing (V60, Chemex, French Press, etc.). The brewing process that the Bunn Trifecta is built upon could be the answer to this significant dilemma.
The Trifecta has been anxiously awaited by the coffee community since Starbucks bought the rights to the Clover brewing system and took it off the market. At a fraction of the price of the Clover, the Trifecta could be the next-generation coffee system. The process is incredibly simple and efficient without sacrificing quality. It can be compared to a Syphon Brewer in its use of total immersion, constant temperature, and agitation of the grounds.
First, the hot water completely saturates the freshly ground beans resulting in a French Press like immersion. This takes advantage of the total extraction of beans that can only take place in full immersion brewing systems.
Second, Air is injected into the pressurized chamber which agitates the grounds. This further enhances extraction by exciting the grounds and water as they interact with each other.
Third, at just the right time (before over-extraction can take place), the pressurized air presses the coffee through a metal filter into the waiting cup. Similar to the Aeropress, this added pressure further enhances the extraction process and ensures a full-bodied flavor in the coffee.

Hertz Furniture's huge selection of soft play toys, cushions, riding toys and play yards will make an exciting addition to any classroom or preschool gym. These vinyl toys are safe and easy to clean. If you are looking for a way to liven up an early-childhood learning space in a stimulating, educational way, soft play equipment is an excellent choice.
With many little ones playing and exploring in your classroom, it can be difficult to maintain a clean, germ-free environment. Soft play toys that are made of fabric can easily become stained and absorb germs. Unlike fabric, vinyl will not absorb stains or germs. It can be quickly cleaned on a regular basis, or in the event of an accidental spill. Easy cleaning is important in an environment where babies, toddlers and preschoolers play in close proximity because it prevents germs and colds from spreading.
Create your very own indoor playground with a set of climbing shapes. Our great selection of large shapes can be arranged in a myriad of ways to promote problem-solving and gross-motor skills development. Children can choose to play with individual pieces such as tunnels and slides, or practice running, climbing and tumbling through a whole obstacle course.
Children's Factory soft climbing toys can be fastened together safely in a number of different configurations. Caregivers can make obstacle courses that are progressively challenging or focus on particular skills. Young learners will just love coming into school in the morning to see the new courses that have been created just for them. Alternatively, little ones can express their creativity and take initiative by designing their own challenges.
Babies need to spend time on their tummies and lie on the floor in different positions in order to develop important coordination skills and strengthen particular muscles. Colorful cushions enable babies and little ones to rest or sit on the floor comfortably. They come in a wide selection of fun animal shapes including ladybug, bee, caterpillar, turtle, alligator and more. They provide the perfect venue for tummy time or a bit of calm relaxing.
Worried about crawlers and early walkers getting injured when they trip and fall on the classroom floor? Play yards keep curious crawlers and beginning walkers in a safe enclosed area, while providing plenty of space to move around, explore and play. They are even large enough for caregivers to step inside and take part in the fun or sit down and read a book with students.
Another enclosed padded space that can be tons of fun is a cushy ball pit. Soft padded walls keep lots of colorful balls enclosed in the pool as young ones practice grasping, throwing and distinguishing colors. Ball pits encourage children to explore textures and play together.
Soft riding and rocking toys let little ones feel like the big guys with their very own vehicles. Unlike hard plastic toys, soft riding toys mold to fit the child for comfortable sitting and support. They can be enjoyed individually or in groups as children rock and ride independently or race and practice steering around.
For some extra fun with soft play toys, consider adding mirrors to an obstacle course. Young students will just love watching themselves as they maneuver around and learn to conquer new challenges. As they observe their own movements, babies and toddlers will develop greater awareness of their bodies and improved spatial sense.
Hertz Furniture's soft play equipment will fit right into your preschool or daycare classroom. Whether you have a whole gym to fill or just a bit of extra space for a new item or two, we have a number of fun educational pieces that are sure to spark the curiosity of your little explorers. If you aren't sure how to arrange your climbing toys or play yard, or you just need some help choosing the ideal soft animal cushion, contact the Hertz Design Center for free design and project help.

A while back we had to remove the radio station due to bandwidth cost and server load. Well, we've recently made some changes to our service which is now allowing us to revive the very popular radio stream.
Not only are we streaming our site's mixes, we also have regular LIVE programming scheduled! (more to follow) We will let you know on Facebook when we're broadcasting live. For now, we're simply doing some tests. If you want to tune in, please point your favorite media player to our streams:
We're not always live, so please check Facebook!
In the past, our mix upload system was pretty basic: you simply send us an mp3, wav, ogg file and we host it for you. Since the inception of djmix in 2009, we've seen a lot of other content hosting providers come and go. Instead of competing with these other sources, we're going to embrace them! If you have a mix or track on Soundcloud, or a video on Youtube, (more coming soon) you can now embed that content into your submission, instead or in addition to the audio file.
It seems like we're always doing something to djmix! This upgrade consisted of a 100% overhaul of the database, transition to a more beefy system and a total wipe on the users and content databases. It was necessary due to the massive amount of garbage and spam we got with the last content manager. No more spam! We're starting fresh with all new features, better connectivity, and a bigger site to get more mixes to more listeners.

Next GTA in "calendar 2010," expects Pachter
How long to wait for the next Grand Theft Auto? Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter reckons you've got about a year to go.
"While we still expect a GTA game in calendar 2010, it is not clear that the game will be released before the end of Take-Two's fiscal year ending October 31," Pachter said today as he downgraded his rating on Take-Two stock from "outperform" to "neutral".
Piper Jaffray's Anthony Gikas recently said that he expects the next in gaming's ultimate franchise to arrive in "FY '11," or the 12 months beginning November 1, 2010.
Add the two together and you have GTA V releasing in the fourth calendar quarter of 2010.
Or not, obviously.
Wed, Sep 16, 2009 | 15:52 BST
GTA V "expected in FY '11," says Piper
Piper Jaffray's Anthony Gikas has bumped his Take-Two target up to $15, from $11, saying in a note that GTA V is "expected" in the company's fiscal '11.
"Our confidence in the company's profitability profile is improving as product flow for FY 2010 is greatly improved and Grand Theft Auto V is expected in FY '11," he said today.
"Assuming no change to product flow, we expect the company will have 10-plus games that will sell over one million units."
Take-Two is currently in its '09 Q4, which ends on October 31. FY '10 ends October 31, 2010. Mr Gikas here is saying GTA V will release sometime in the 12 months ending October 31, 2011.
That's a long time to wait, isn't it?

Exclusive Dave Jones vid interview – APB laid bare
We were lucky enough to get nearly 20 minutes with Realtime Worlds boss and original GTA creator Dave Jones at Develop yesterday, the result of which you can see after the break.
We talked almost exclusively about APB, Jones telling us when the game will release, how much it's cost to make and going into good detail on the mechanics of the MMO itself.
Jones also gave opinion on the state of the GTA franchise, calling Vice City the "pinnacle" of the IP.
There's tons more stuff in there. Enjoy.

Survey asks if gamers would like a "karma system" in next GTA
Play Insights sent out a survey asking if a karma system should be implemented into the Grand Theft Auto series.
Over on the WiiSpace forums, member Da Ill One posted a screenshot of it, and this is what it read:
Do you think Grand Theft Auto would benefit from having a "karma" system or "good" vs. "evil" actions mechanism that allowed you to choose your overall path by doing good or bad actions, where those actions have an accumulative impact on how the game unfolds? When answering, please consider the idea of being "good" or "evil" and NOT the particular execution / how this feature would be implemented.
Granted this is a survey and does not denote whether Rockstar would include such a feature in the next GTA game, but the thought is still intriguing.

Rockstar details a bit of Chinatown Wars' soundtrack
Rockstar's released a bit of information on soundtrack for Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, which will "capture the spirit" of the franchise's genres and stations over the years.
Original music for stations includes: Electro-Choc, IF99, Tuff Gong, The Beat and Radio Broker.

Games for Windows Live is "natural fit" for GTA IV PC
Rockstar's Sam Houser reckons Games for Windows Live is ideal for the PC version of GTA IV. Luckily, then, the game's online modes will be exclusively matched to the service when it launches on November 18.
"We're incredibly proud of the deep, customisable multiplayer experience that Grand Theft Auto IV offers players," said Houser.
"As we work toward the release of the PC version, Games for Windows – Live affords us the opportunity to seamlessly translate the multiplayer console experience for PC gamers. The service is a natural fit for the platform and we strongly believe it will help in building a strong online community around GTA IV PC."
So there we are.

Take-Two CEO heavily hints at GTA Wii
Let the wink-winking and nudge-nudgery begin. Speaking during yesterday's Take-Two conference call, CEO Ben Feder opened his big mouth – and then closed it, giving us some juicy info during the interim.
When asked about a possible Wii version of GTA, Feder replied, "We've spent an enormous amount of time and effort working with Nintendo. We're very proud of the partnership. GTA: Chinatown Wars is an important step [in that partnership]…and we intend to continue to grow that relationship."
Obviously not a confirmation, but the door's still wide open for Rockstar's murder sim/life-saver to appear on the Wii.
MyGTA, anyone?
Thanks, Shacknews.

APB is "bastard child of everything we've been striving towards for 15-20 years": Realtime Worlds
Hugely anticipated crime MMO APB is the culmination of 20 years work on GTA, Crackdown and sandbox gaming in general, Realtime Worlds studio boss Colin Macdonald has told VG247.
"I don't think so," said Macdonald when asked if the game was a straight evolution from Crackdown.
"It's been on the go for quite some time, long before people starting seeing Crackdown and we got a sense of Crackdown's success. It's the bastard child of everything we've been striving towards over the 15-20 years that Realtime Worlds, DMA and David Jone have been making games.
"It's where we want to go in terms of sandbox gameplay and everything that started with Grand Theft Auto and was evolving through Crackdown."
Macdonald added that APB brings plenty to the table that's never been seen before.
"Some things we've taken a lot and there are also a ton of areas in APB that are completely new and unique to APB itself. So, there's a mix of things that came from Crackdown, but as much as anything it's just what the company was set up to do, what Dave's always wanted to do from GTA and before Crackdown and APB."
An APB beta is on the way, with both the public test and the game's actual release happening sooner than many thought, Macdonald told us last week.
There is, however, no date on the title as yet.

2,676 people claim on Hot Coffee "scandal"
According to this New York Times piece, a total of 2,676 people have claimed their $35 from Rockstar after being traumatized by the Hot Coffee scenes in San Andreas.
"Am I disappointed? Sure," said Seth R. Lesser, lead lawyer for the plaintiffs. "We can't guess as to why now, several years later, people care or don't care. The merits of the case were clear."
We'll tell you why, Seth. No one with more than three brain cells gives a flying fuck. The law's an ass. Got it yet?

Wilson has been at the school for a decade, he said. She typically taught ninth-grade math.
Lairsey escorted Wilson to waiting local and state investigators, he said.
"I gave her a letter explaining her suspension, and I transferred her to their custody," he said. "There was very little dialogue."
High school Principal Joshua M. Howard sent a letter Wednesday informing all parents of "inappropriate conduct by an employee," offering counseling services to students and assuring parents of their children's safety.
"We are dedicated to the well-being to all of our students and are fully cooperating with the GBI and their investigation," Lairsey said. "Anytime a school system employee or teacher commits an act that is inappropriate, that gives us a black eye on educators everywhere."
Wilson's bond was set at $35,000, $5,000 for each count of sexual assault. No other court dates have been set.
Lairsey said a hearing regarding Wilson's job would be scheduled within 10 days.
"I will be recommending termination," he said. "We're just shocked and disappointed. And it's just hard to believe. Just disappointed and disheartened that people we put our trust in would violate that trust."

We know how crucial the Murray Darling Basin is for Australia's food production and economy. We support reforms that will keep the system healthy all the way up from the Murray Mouth, wind back the over-allocation of water and restore precious ecosystems so they can keep sustaining Australia.
The Greens want to see reforms that will return enough water to flush the pollutants out of the system each year and improve South Australia's usable water stocks. They should also assist all Basin communities to build their jobs and economies and restore our internationally recognised wetlands and productive agricultural areas to good health. We recognise that this is one of the key reforms facing Australia over the next decade and we have to get it right.
We believe that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people must have the opportunity to participate in water catchment planning and management, and there should be no new large-scale dams on Australian rivers.
