Carnival's Crippled Ship Expected To Hurt Cruise Business
By Greg Allen
Originally published on Fri February 15, 2013 6:40 am
This week's debacle on the Carnival Triumph is a setback that may cost the company as much as $80 million and hurt the industry's image. Carnival says passengers who were on the Triumph the last five days without power were miserable, but at least they were safe. Industry watchers say Carnival generally has handled the mishap well, but that the industry may need to rethink how it deal with events like power outages on floating cities than can carry more than 5,000 people.

Just like the name says I think it's time for some S-R.com stickers!
Need to spread the site more at the resorts this season for sure… :)
Posted: 15 August 2010 08:57 PM
I 100% agree… but Dan has the purse strings.
So… all together now.
"Dan, please can we get some Snowboard-Review.com stickers? Please old buddy old pal!"
Lets get the brand global!
Posted: 16 August 2010 08:46 AM
Some stickers would be actually really cool and snowboard-review.com stickers designed like the website logo would be the first stickers to hit my deck and helmet.. EVER.
So yeah.. basically: Go Dan!

....I've got plenty of time spare at the minute, actually for the past 6 months I've litteraly been putting my feet up and chillin'. In fact, this new software that we've developed that contacts the brands, edits the images and posts the reviews with the unique lead-ins without lifting a finger is fantastic.
I'm on the case with the stickers, I'll post a couple of design ideas this evening and we can have a feedback session on the design.
Patience my friends. We'll have them sorted by the time snow starts falling.
Posted: 04 September 2010 02:17 AM
See? I make one little post and all hell breaks loose… lol, no worries I just wanted to see what's been happening. In a past life I was a graphic designer so I could whip together some stuff if need be.
Posted: 24 September 2010 11:27 PM
After being crazy busy studying during the last weeks: Something new on the stickers front? =)
Posted: 22 October 2010 09:47 PM
Ok, news on the sticker front. Dan and I are going to be doing some work on the site over the next couple of months, mostly in the graphics area. We love our logo, but we don't reckon it's ideal for a sticker, in-fact it's not great for anything other than the website. So we've decided to change the logo. Hopefully we'll have the new look logo and site nearing completion just before ISPO in Feb, so we're going to hold fire on the stickers until we know what outr new logo is going to be.
So hold tight my friends. You will have stickers and they'll be the dogs bollocks! Worth the wait. Big sticker packs will be sent express delivery to Tobi and Steve as soon as we've nailed the design :)
Posted: 22 October 2010 10:56 PM
lol… just want to rep a badass site on the hills. :)
again, I was a graphic design and training in computer animation… I am willing to offer my services if need to be help out.
Posted: 23 October 2010 07:34 PM
Steve that's really kind of you! For sure, if you have any ideas for a logo, I'd love to see them. I emailed the guys at Draplin Design. THose guys did the branding for Union Bindings, Grenade Gloves and Compatriot Snowboards but they haven't got back to me. I'm definitely going to keep you and Tobi upto speed with what's going on and run ideas past you. Your opinion is really valued.
Posted: 04 January 2011 04:57 AM
I know im a newcomer but I was intrigued by the sticker idea…..any updates?
Posted: 03 May 2011 04:48 AM
Just wondering if you guys ever made some stickers!!
Btw this is a totally awesome web-site!! Great job guys!

Cellar/Tasting Notes The '98 possesses a dark garnet/purple color in addition to a complex bouquet of underbrush, cedar, walnuts and licorice-tinged black currants.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "One of the monumental wines of the last century is the 1982 Pichon Lalande. Since bottling, it has flirted with perfection, and was a sprinter out of the gate, which gave rise to questions about how quickly it would begin its decline. However, at age 27, it retains all its glossy, rich, flamboyant..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "... among the first-growths, this wine is showing surprising forwardness and complexity in its aromatics. It possesses an exuberant, flamboyant bouquet of roasted coffee, cassis, smoky oak, and soy sauce. The impressive 1996 Mouton-Rothschild offers impressive aromas of black currants, framboise,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Bottled in June, 1997, this profound Mouton is ... a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, and 19% Merlot. It reveals an opaque purple color, and reluctant aromas of cassis, truffles, coffee, licorice, and spice. In the mouth, the wine is "great stuff," with superb density, a..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A sensational effort, the 2006 Mouton Rothschild exhibits an opaque purple color as well as a classic Mouton perfume of creme de cassis, flowers, blueberries, and only a hint of oak. Dalhuin told me that in whisky barrel-tasting vintages such as 1989 and 1990, Mouton was aged in heavily-toasted..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2006 Latour's inky/ruby/purple color precedes pure aromas of red and black fruits, high tannin, medium body, impressive sweetness and purity as well as a long finish. Thirty-eight percent of the production (about 10,000 cases) made it into the final blend (86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A luscious Lafite that is silky and elegant with layers of wonderful violet, berry, cherry and chocolate flavors. It's full-bodied, with racy, refined tannins and good length."
Cellar/Tasting Notes Subtle, yet rich and decadent, offering meat, sweet berry and fresh leather on the nose. Full and very soft, with velvety tannins and a long, fruity finish. This has so much ripe fruit. Reserved and firm, this is turning to a very fine and shy Lafite. This is fresh and structured, but still holding..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A brilliant offering and a candidate for wine of the vintage, this is classic Lafite that reminded me somewhat of the 1976, although the vintage conditions were completely different. This is a medium-weight, quintessentially elegant style of Lafite... with black currants, plums, and crushed..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2001 shows the classic Lafite nose of lead pencil shavings (graphite), plum, cherry, and black currant, with a hint of tobacco leaf, cedar, and spice box.

Did Your City Make the List?
Asthma is a chronic disease of the airways that makes breathing difficult for 1 in 15 Americans. Air pollution, secondhand smoke, and pollen are common triggers of an asthma attack. While there are no asthma-free cities, some are more challenging than others for people living with asthma. The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) has released their "2011 Asthma Capitals." Here are the top 10.
No. 10: Nashville, Tenn.
Nashville jumped up 10 spots this year to land on this dubious top 10 list of the worst cities for people with asthma. Twelve factors are used to formulate the list, including air pollution, pollen scores, asthma prevalence, use of "rescue inhalers," and poverty. Nashville fares worse than many other cities in air quality and smoke-free laws -- though its pollen score is better than average.
No. 9: Philadelphia
Philly remains one of the 10 worst asthma cities in the U.S. again this year. It scores worse than many others in air quality and pollen. There's also a high prevalence of asthma and high use of asthma medicine among residents -- though there not enough asthma specialists for all those struggling to breathe.
No. 8: Virginia Beach, Va.
Summer visitors know Virginia Beach for its beautiful, sandy beaches, but residents with asthma know a different side. Air quality, smoke-free laws, and the pollen score are all worse than many other cities. Asthma rates are higher than average here, while the number of medical specialists is too low, according to the AAFA.
No. 7: Augusta, Ga.
Golf lovers see endless rows of blooming flowers during the Master's tournament here each April, yet flowers, grasses, and their pollen are only a minor player in Augusta's asthma ranking. Poverty, poor air quality, high asthma death rates, and incomplete smoke-free laws make this city one of the 10 worst asthma cities again this year, despite its relatively small size.
No. 6: St. Louis
The Gateway Arch is not the only thing in the air in St. Louis. High pollen counts, poor air quality, and the lack of a comprehensive smoking ban in all public places contribute to big asthma issues here, according to the AAFA. St. Louis fares a little better this year, compared to previous rankings as the worst city, and the runner-up worst city for people with asthma.
No. 5: Tulsa, Okla.
Dry, dusty Oklahoma can have a surprising amount of pollen, and that's one reason Tulsa remains in the top 10 worst asthma cities. Residents' use of asthma "quick relief" medicine is higher than average, while the number of asthma specialists is too low, according to the AAFA. And smoke-free laws in Tulsa haven't caught up with many other cities.
No. 4: Chattanooga, Tenn.
A beautiful riverfront park and nearby mountains make this a tourist destination for outdoor enthusiasts, but asthma sufferers might bring along their medicine. Poor air quality and an above-average asthma death rate help keep Chattanooga near the top of the worst asthma cities list. Like many Southern cities, Chattanooga lags behind in implementing smoke-free laws that help clear the air of secondhand smoke in public places.
No. 3: Memphis, Tenn.
This Mississippi river town has many asthma sufferers singing the blues. Memphis moves up to No. 3 this year. Weak public smoking restrictions, poor air quality, and high poverty rates continue to be problematic. While asthma doesn't discriminate based on socio-economic status, people living in poverty often have less access to the health care and medications needed to manage their condition.
No. 2: Knoxville, Tenn.
Knoxville moves up to No. 2 from No. 4 last year. It has ranked in the top 10 worst asthma cities year after year, like other cities in Tennessee and across the South. Knoxville does have a better-than-average number of specialists to treat people with asthma. But the city is still vexed by poor air quality, incomplete smoke-free laws, and above-average use of asthma medications.
No. 1: Richmond, Va.
This historic city on the James River is the AAFA's top "Asthma Capital" for the second year in a row. Richmond earned this unhealthy title with a high pollen score, high poverty rate, and poor air quality. Fourteen of the 25 worst cities this year are in the South, largely because Southern tobacco-producing areas have been slow to adopt smoke-free laws -- and they continue to have frequent ozone days and high overall levels of air pollution.
10 Best Cities for Asthma
This year's best asthma cities tend to have air quality that is much better than average. Here are the best cities for 2011 -- with the No. 1 city shown on the next slide.
10. Omaha, Neb.
9. Sarasota, Fla.
8. Cape Coral, Fla.
7. Austin, Texas
6. Kansas City, Mo.
5. Minneapolis
4. Des Moines, Iowa
3. Colorado Springs, Co.
2. San Francisco
Breathe Better: Portland, Ore.
This Northwest city known for roses, microbreweries, and coffee took top honors in this year's asthma cities ranking. Better-than-average air quality and a low pollen score helped it beat 99 other U.S. cities in the AAFA ranking. While cleaner air helps asthmatics breathe easier, experts say there's really no "best" place to live because each person's triggers are different.

Pull up revisions: src/sys/kern/subr_pool.c revision 1.196 src/share/man/man9/pool_cache.9 patch (requested by jym in ticket #366). As pool reclaiming is unlikely to happen at interrupt or softint context, re-enable the portion of code that allows invalidation of CPU-bound pool caches. Two reasons: - CPU cached objects being invalidated, the probability of fetching an obsolete object from the pool_cache(9) is greatly reduced. This speeds up pool_cache_get() quite a bit as it does not have to keep destroying objects until it finds an updated one when an invalidation is in progress. - for situations where we have to ensure that no obsolete object remains after a state transition (canonical example: pmap mappings between Xen VM restoration), invalidating all pool_cache(9) is the safest way to go. As it uses xcall(9) to broadcast the execution of pool_cache_transfer(), pool_cache_invalidate() cannot be called from interrupt or softint context (scheduling a xcall(9) can put a LWP to sleep). pool_cache_xcall() => pool_cache_transfer() to reflect its use. Invalidation being a costly process (1000s objects may be destroyed), all places where pool_cache_invalidate() may be called from interrupt/softint context will now get caught by the proper KASSERT(), and fixed. Ping me when you see one. Tested under i386 and amd64 by running ATF suite within 64MiB HVM domains (tried triggering pgdaemon a few times). No objection on tech-kern@. XXX a similar fix has to be pulled up to NetBSD-6, but with a more conservative approach. See http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2012/05/29/msg013245.html

I still get about 50% of the tournaments I enter not allowing IA.
I still get about 50% of the tournaments I enter not allowing IA.
Right, but why stop there?
If I can refuse my opponent to use FW, why can't I refuse my opponent to use that Avatar or some such?
I mean, if I get to decide what forces (s)he can or cannot use, the source of those forces shouldn't matter.
From IA2: Space Marines and Forces of the Inquisition:
The only things you needed to ask permission for were flyers and super-heavies, particularly in games below 2000 points since not all armies are equipped to deal with those. (at such point values).In the past we have advised players to seek their opponent's permission, but this seems an unsatisfactory solutions. Of course you need an opponent's permission to play any game, unless you intend to force people to play you! Eldar players don't feel they need permissions to field their Avatar, although each Craftworld has just one, only awoken in direst need. Using this 'opponent's permission' system I believe that too often players object, feeling that their opponent is getting an unfair advantage, which is actually nonsense. -Warwick Kinrade.
My self within the dark. No... The darkness within me.
Fātum est aeternum. Tōta animī lacrimae pro salūs. Ibi est haud salūs sine dolor.
Let's get back on topic please.
Apparently the announcement that was supposed to be made on the Bolter & Chainsword forum didn't materialize. Back to the Rock then. Next time we'll learn to trust in rumourmancy. Next time we will remember that hope is the beginning of unhappiness...
I certainly hope that this rumor turns out to be true.
And that has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that it would make a Space Marine army the last 40K army before a new edition.
Ho ho ho!
I was lying. That is the reason.
You are indeed wise MajorWesJanson, I like a lot of your posts but I'm gonna have to agree with Druchii Monkey on this one. Your not wrong about the releases but I think it's safe to say that given the weight of fluff/battle reports/painting articles/written articles/codexes generated by GW and BL over my last 20 years playing 40k then the big four in my humble opinion would be the DA, BA, SW & Smurfs
Not sure about this, I tend to associate Maces with Horus and Lorgar (and by association wouldn't their legions be more likely to have them?) I would however like to see a Belial character model with all the options in the codex, I imagine the rules will dictate what we use, personally as he currently has a naf inv save I use the TH & SS option.
On-topic, given that there has been a lull in DA related articles in WD over the past twelve months but a recent increase in activity (spine of the covers, new paint box set, a couple of DA's included in the painting guides, a couple of short stories via BL and also a couple of new books on the horizon it does look as though the marketing wheel is gaining momentum but I can't see it happening next month. I may of course be wrong. I'd like to think the WD spines are a cool, intelligent idea and will complete on the same day the codex launches, although depending on picture content and size this is obviously difficult to guage, perhaps a Games Day release on 23rd September 2012?
DjtHeutii; If he is not pointing, how will people know that he is in charge?
Godzooky; I think all UM flyers should be covered by a new special rule called: Whooshing machines live longer with Calgar...
Rabid Bunny 666; Heh, I can picture Russ waking up in a Space Hulk with about forty drunken Genestealers, three suits of Thousand Sons armour and a very confused ork.
Some recent threads mentioned store events in June where players are invited to bring models that are green. This was interpreted to be in conjunction with the Flyer release, particularly as the Ork flyer is rumored to be part of it.
But there's also rumors of an SM flyer. And there's another army that features the color green.
So that's probably the source of the DA chatter; the flyer will likely be specifically earmarked / themed for DA as well as codex marines, just like the Stormraven was for BA / GK.
Draigo's Razor: When presented with multiple explanations for a new piece of 40K content, the most likely answer is the one intentionally designed to make you, personally, angry.
Tales of the Seferim Sector: an ongoing series of narrative battle reports.
Kommanda Shinbash's Misfits - 1500 pt Orks
That announcement was all about an B&C online competition: Link.
From death comes hope, from desolation comes new beginnings, from the stars comes DEATHWING
No it wasn't. It was a GW Australia in store event. There is no way GW would only promote an event in one counrmtry for a new release.
The Tale of Guilders
That's just... like... your opinion, man.
Sorry for misunderstanding. I was writing in reply to Starchild post. :]
From death comes hope, from desolation comes new beginnings, from the stars comes DEATHWING
Fair enough. You may also tell by my posts that I enjoy poking fun at Dark Angels and Eldar (armies and players) due to those two being the majority of my opponents when I started playing. I do poke fun at everyone though.
As for maces, didn't the DA kit come with one for Power Armored troops? IIRC, I used them to make plastic crozaeus for chaplains.
"As I've always said, Wes is wise." - Scryer in the Darkness
"Wes, if you keep this up you'll need to change your name to MajorWiseJanson." - Azzy
"Many boffins died to bring us this information." - Forgeworld Announcement E-mail
"Rest assured, Servitor 13 has your best interests at heart. Now let's fire up the lascannons." - GW changes their web privacy policy.
Looks like we won't get a codex until +++after+++ the image is complete i.e. next year.
Hasn't that been said over and over?
Just like Tau have been said to be in 2013 as well.
I just have to say this, the spine image is for the 25th Anniversary of 40k. It has nothing to do with the release of the Dark Angels codex. From all the forums that I have read over the last month and a half I would say the next codex will most likely be Chaos. I also think that being that we are a few months away from the 6th edition release, from a business standpoint, GW will most likely release the Chaos Codex after 6th is out. That way they can maximize there profits by selling them in the hard back format. That being said, the Dark Angels Codex will be coming out possibly in October. If not then, it will be early 2013.
You're totally right Oni, there should be no disctinction between official and unofficial rules, it's so puritanical! Want to play against my scratch built Grey Knight titan? It may be overloaded with psycannons, but it's only 125 points!
While I'm not necessarily helping, I don't think this thread is long for this world. This has been talked to death and it seems fairly obvious that DA are not coming in May/June. Looks like we'll have to keep waiting impatiently for something concrete on our beloved Sons of the Lion.
This one has run its course.
Thread closed.

Woman crashes vehicle into West Bloomfield High School tennis court during practice, narrowly missing players
The West Bloomfield High School boys varsity tennis team was practicing after school when a Mercedes SUV crashed through the net of the court, narrowly missing the players.
Tennis coach Larry Stark said a 22-year-old woman was heading southbound on Orchard Lake Road on Friday when she veered across the road, down the embankment and over the sidewalk before crashing through the fence surrounding the tennis courts.
The vehicle then crashed through the tennis net before running through the fence on the south side of the courts and stopping just before it reached the school parking lot.
Lt. Tim Diamond of the West Bloomfield Police Department said the woman was injured in the accident, but she is expected to recover. Police will have more information about the crash later this week. It is unknown whether alcohol was a factor in the crash.
At the time of the incident, Stark and eight tennis players were on the two courts the vehicle crossed.
"We heard this loud noise and saw the vehicle crash through the fence," Stark said. "We all just yelled 'Run!' and scrambled."
Stark said he first checked with his team to make sure no one was hit. After determining that everyone was safe, he walked to the SUV to check on the driver. Stark said the woman seemed dazed and in shock, but otherwise suffered no major injuries.
Stark has been in contact with all of his players since the incident and says everyone seems to be in good spirits.
"I'm blessed that no one was hurt. It could have been tremendously ugly," Stark said. "I was worried to death when that car came crashing through there. It really was a miracle that someone wasn't hurt. I guess it just wasn't our time."

these are very stylish boardshorts, that look great with a tshirt and some sandals, if you plan on walking around during summertime. Not the ideal trunk to play a game of volleyball or surf in however, due to the material. They ave a button and zipper, and the material doesn't seem very durable if you were to be running around in them. Aside from that they're AWESOME

UNT Fall Forum addresses human trafficking
From staff reports
Published: Wednesday, September 26, 2012 4:08 PM CDT
Survivors will share their stories and a team of four panelists will lead a discussion about "Sex Trafficking: Modern Day Slavery" in the annual Fall Forum presented by the University of North Texas College of Public Affairs and Community Service in partnership with New Friends New Life.
The free event will be held from 11 a.m. to noon Thursday in the University Union Silver Eagle Suite, one block west of Welch and West Prairie streets. A free picnic lunch will follow the event.
"The purpose of the PACS Fall Forum is to welcome students back to UNT by providing them with an opportunity to learn about an important and interesting community problem that affects all of them, regardless of their major," said Dr. Thomas Evenson, dean of the UNT College of Public Affairs and Community Service. "The idea is to engage students in an educational experience that is 'off-the-beaten learning path' and that is likely to stay with them long after they graduate and leave UNT."
Panelists are: Brooke Grona-Robb, an assistant district attorney in Dallas County who has been supervising the human trafficking and internet crimes against children unit of the organized crime division for the past five years; Melissa Miles, who heads the city's code compliance litigation section in the Dallas city attorney's office; Katie Pedigo, executive director of New Friends New Life, a Dallas-Fort Worth area organization that encourages women to leave the sex industry and build new lives; Dr. Irie Session, protégé advocate, the spiritual support coordinator for New Friends New Life and Mike Vincent, sergeant with the Addison Police Department assigned to the criminal investigations division and head of the hotel/business retention unit, which investigates vice and narcotics crimes.
"New Friends New Life is honored to partner with UNT to raise awareness on the important human rights issue of the sexual exploitation and trafficking of American women and girls," Pedigo said. "The fall forum will highlight the responsibility and challenges of giving empowerment to the degraded, hope to the hopeless and freedom to the enslaved."
Grona-Robb is an assistant district attorney in Dallas County. Grona-Robb received her law degree from the University of Texas School of Law in 2000. She is the deputy chief prosecutor of the organized crime division and has been supervising the human trafficking and internet crimes against children unit of the organized crime division for the past five years. Grona-Robb has met with police officers investigating these cases and works with them regularly to assist with the investigation from inception to final disposition. Grona-Robb trains law enforcement and other individuals in issues involving human trafficking, and she has written an article for the Texas District and County Attorneys Association titled "Prosecuting Human Traffickers" that appeared in the September-October 2010 issue of The Prosecutor.
Miles, a graduate of the University of Texas School of Law, spent the first several years of her career at an international law firm in a litigation practice representing governmental entities. In 2007, she joined the Dallas city attorney's office and currently heads the city's code compliance litigation section. During her tenure with the city of Dallas, Miles has specialized in the regulation of sexually oriented businesses, which include adult cabarets. After conducting a two-year study of the human trafficking issues that persisted in Dallas' adult cabarets, Miles authored the city's current sexually oriented business ordinance, which contains novel regulations that have dramatically reduced Dallas' adult cabarets as a destination for human trafficking victims. Miles' work with the Dallas Police Department's vice unit is also credited with closing more than 50 businesses that served as destination locations for human trafficking in Dallas. She is currently working with DPD's crimes against children section to develop strategies to combat the trafficking of children through the use of the internet.
With more than 15 years of experience in management, strategic planning and result-driven operations, Pedigo has a proven ability to develop a vision, achieve consensus and deliver results in a wide variety of corporate and nonprofit settings. Pedigo possesses strong interpersonal communication skills and the leadership skills to spearhead change and execute innovative initiatives.
Pedigo graduated from Texas A&M University in 1995 with a bachelor's degree in business management. She received her law degree from Southern Methodist University in 1998. She began working in the home care industry in 1998 in human resources, business operations and government compliance. She served as general counsel for a home care company beginning in 2003. In 2007, Pedigo's passion moved to the non-profit sector. She was named the founding executive director of Encompass Cares, which raises funds and distributes grants for medical missions, community assistance and employee emergency hardships. Her philosophy is that being a good corporate citizen is not only the right thing to do, but it also builds the company's reputation, community support, employee loyalty and consumer trust. Pedigo has served many nonprofit organizations including the Christ Clinic in Dallas, Park Cities YMCA, Christian Works for Children and Letot Capital Campaign Advisory Board. In 2009, Pedigo was named a "Hero for Children" by the Texas Education Commission. She is currently a fellow in the Public Voices Thought Leadership Institute and the executive director of New Friends New Life. She has a passion for empowering and equipping women and children to realize their potentials with transformed lives.
Session has more than 25 years of experience working with children and families in high-risk situations. She has been a senior parole officer for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, an investigator for Child Protective Services, and the adolescent coordinator for Bryan's House, serving youth and families impacted by HIV/AIDS.
Session holds a doctor of ministry in transformative leadership with a concentration in prophetic preaching from Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School in New York and a master's of divinity from Brite Divinity School at Texas Christian University. She serves as a protégé advocate, the spiritual support coordinator for New Friends New Life, and is senior pastor of Warren Avenue Christian Church in Dallas.
In 2009, Session was the recipient of the Distinguished Ministers Award for Innovative Ministry by the Brite Divinity School Alumni Association and in that same year received the Legacy Torch Award from the Urban League of Greater Dallas for Outstanding Service to the Dallas Community. In September 2011, she received the "Women Who Make A Difference" award for exemplary service to the Dallas Community.
Vincent is a sergeant with the Addison Police Department, currently assigned to the criminal investigations division. Vincent heads the hotel/business retention unit, which is a team of detectives investigating vice and narcotics crimes. Much of his time is spent on cases involving prostitution, massage parlors, human trafficking, sting operations and "plain clothes" assignments. Vincent has been with the Addison police for eight years, and attended Texas A&M University where he was a member of the Corps of Cadets and graduated with a marketing degree.

Jrue Holiday signs multi-year extension with 76ers
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Jrue Holiday is set to run the show for the Philadelphia 76ers for years to come.
Holiday signed an extension with the Sixers just before the midnight deadline and hours after he led them to an 84-75 victory over the Denver Nuggets.
A person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press on Wednesday night that the extension was for four years and worth at least $41 million. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because it is team policy not to disclose contract terms. The Sixers had until midnight to strike a deal or risk Holiday becoming a restricted free agent at the end of the season.
He had 14 points and 11 assists in the season opener. Holiday, who was the 17th overall pick in the 2009 draft, averaged 11.7 points and 5 assists over his first three seasons.
"I'm ecstatic to continue playing in Philadelphia," Holiday said. "I'm going to keep putting in the work and pushing myself every day in order to bring a championship to the city and our fans."
Sixers owner Josh Harris was pleased to keep his star point guard.
"Jrue is both an outstanding player and an important part of our future," Harris said. "We are very excited to keep a player of Jrue's caliber in Philadelphia and truly look forward to further building the 76ers legacy around his leadership."
Coach Doug Collins has heaped Holiday with praise and believes he can become one of the top-five point guards in the NBA. The Sixers have let Holiday, Evan Turner and former Sixer Andre Iguodala take turns as the primary ballhandler over the last three seasons, stunting Holiday's growth, even as he's shown flashes of stardom. Collins decided on the first day of training camp that it was time to trust Holiday completely with letting him call the shots at point, and use him and injured center Andrew Bynum as the building blocks for a run toward Philadelphia's first championship since 1983.
Holiday said after the game he was hopeful he would remain a Sixer for the long haul.
"Whatever I get, I get," Holiday said. "If I get what I want, thank you." Continued...
He had plenty of reasons to be thankful Thursday and beyond.

"Most of the guns that are purchased at a gun show are purchased from federal firearms-licensed holders," Keene said.
He challenged the 40 percent figure for gun sales without background checks -- particularly at gun shows.
"We don't know what (is the) percentage at gun shows. It may be 10 percent," Keene said. "It's not such a loophole at gun shows. But it's like if you sell me your shotgun, that's a private transaction. Just as if I sell you a car, I don't have a dealer's license."
Ten states and the District of Columbia have their own laws requiring background checks for any firearm sold at a gun show, Nichols said.
Six more states require background checks for gun-show sales of handguns, but not for rifles or shotguns, Nichols said.
In total, 16 states and the District of Columbia require background checks on handguns sold at gun shows, Nichols said.
These states that close loopholes, however, provide exemptions for gun transfers between immediate family members and between licensed dealers, Nichols said.
Are background checks effective?
From the time when the gun control measures of the Brady Act were enacted on March 1, 1994, through the end of 2008, the federal government processed more than 97 million applications for gun transfers or permits, the Justice Department says.
Almost 1.8 million applications were denied, the agency said.

Does Immigration Cost Jobs?
Do immigrants take American jobs? It's a common refrain among those who want to tighten limits on legal immigration and deny a "path to citizenship" — which they call "amnesty" — to the millions of immigrants living in the U.S. illegally. There's even a new Reclaim American Jobs Caucus in the House …

That's why the PC is and stays the best. Much more stuff you can do with it.
That's why the PC is and stays the best. Much more stuff you can do with it.
My quote:
'Meh, I don't really care anymore about the new games direction, with many loads of hours(make that years actually) on Tib Sun, YR, Generals, CnC3, and RA3, plus all the mods they come with, another game with the same old formula is rather redundant IMO. '
consoles you can just put the disc in and play tho, computers demand you go through installs, plenty of updates,
gotta admit its nice for a hassle free gaming experience (tho consoles are heading towards pc's for updates and what not)
also the games are designed to the hardware in the console since its standardized. no "i will have to twiddle with the setting or lower the quality to play it".
hassle free is nice, it just limits you.

Not really, I think most people get tired of videogames bcs they dont have some other hobbies to alternate with, if you use most of the hours of the day the whole week to play videogames then obviously you are gonna grow tired.
That's why I also do some other stuff, with a chronogram full you come to appretiate those few hours you have for every videogame.
Live well. It is the greatest revenge... And be the salt and light of Earth.
♦► My deviantART page, C&C stuff and more! ◄♦
I haven't touched my PS3 or Xbox 360 since Winter. So yes, unless you've already guessed my answer, I am tired of this generation.
But it's not mainly because the consoles are seriously outdated, it's also because of the direction game publishers are taking these days. I hate it, and I'm starting to hate most game publishers too. Things such as CoD Elite, or an online pass. And no matter how much the publisher gets our money, the online is always broken on a lot of games released recently. Such as Gears of War 3, Killzone 3, Halo: Reach, CoD: MW 3, Uncharted 3 to name a few. All the games mentioned I have poured money into, and still have to put up with bugs, unbalanced weapons and maps and generally a bad online experience. And that type of stuff seems rampant in this generation of games.
Although PC is fine, gotta love PC gaming...
The reason why it takes so long to get out of this current generation is because of R&D costs and the likes of Sony, MS and Nintendo will wait to release the next-gen consoles rather than ask us to pay a sub $500 to $600 for a new system.
Some people are willing to pay $500 to $600 on a new console system but a lot of people will see that price and say " I can build a halfway decent gaming PC for half that price right now".
So, in other words Nintendo, Sony and MS stretch out longevity of the current consoles as much as they can until they're ready to release new systems at more reasonable pricing to the consumers.
I'm not tired with this generation. But I am starting to get tired of Nintendo booby trapping their own market. I loved Wii when it first came out... but now I barely play it anymore. Maybe once every two months..
I love Nintendo and don't want to give up on them... but all they do in recent times is isolate themselves from the rest of the game market and force gamers to choose who to go with. Most decent games that are for other consoles or PC can't be seen on Wii because the system is simply not capable of playing them or playing them properly. That means that if a Nintendo fan wants to experience those games they need to buy another console... Why does Nintendo do this?
Nintendo is awesome for innovating game designs, but they always do it at the pointless cost of removing modern gameplay capabilities and it is starting to wear thin on my patience. I would like to have a Nintendo console that is able to play new and innovative games but also be able to fall back on tried and true style modern games as well. Why do I have to choose? Why do I have to waste more money because Nintendo refuses to do things the logical way?
Sadly, because Microsoft and Sony have that market firm in their hands. It's not like Nintendo pushed for innovative systems/games and the casual market much by choice, it is Sony and Microsoft being flatout stronger in the classical niches with wellknown franchises and the more powerful consoles to play to those games strenghts that pushed Nintendo into their current position. Mind you, BigN is still earning themselves a golden nose and can sneeze into hundred dollar bills, but the "hardcore" gaming niche is more or less lost to them.
This is what it comes down to, the controller is a bit different but the mote and numchuck can be used exactly like a N64 controller with no drawbacks, it's just split. If they had a thumbstick on the mote too it could easily used just like Microsofts and Sonys controllers.
The problem is that the Wii just isn't powerful enough for modern games. If it were there would be many more games also available for it. So yes, they did push themselves into that niche.
Nintendo had a solid stance in classical stuff with the GameCube.

EAST BEND - The Lady Falcons opened the 2012 season in a big way.
Forbush swept visiting Elkin in straight sets in dominating fashion, 25-15, 25-11 and 25-11 for its first win of the young season.
"We have a very young team," head coach Angie Funk explained. "They played well together tonight. We have a lot of work ahead of us for the season, but it was a good start."
Funk pointed to the Falcons' communication on the court as a key to the win.
"They talked more than they have in their scrimmage games and I think that paid off," she said.
In the first set, Forbush jumped out to a 12-3 before Elkin battled back to 14-9. But the Falcons closed the set on a 11-6 run to take a 1-0 lead.
Forbush was even more dominant in the second and third sets.
In the second set, the Lady Elks held the game close, trailing just 14-8. From there, the Falcons closed on a 11-3 run for the 2-0 advantage.
In set three, Elkin held a 3-2 lead early on before Forbush built a 12-point lead en route to a 25-11 sweep.
Outside hitter Mackenzie Dudley led the way with 15 kills, while Jessica Funk added 13. Mallory Choplin recorded 11 kills, while Quinn Bishop and Regan Gentry combined for 21 kills.
"This was a good way to start off the season," Funk added.
Forbush battles Starmount and West Wilkes this week.

6 ADHD myths busted
There's a whole lot of scaremongering that occurs around ADHD. The internet is filled with misinformation and blatant errors. We bust the most common myths…
MYTH 1. ADHD is used as an excuse for bad parenting
ADHD is a mental disorder and a neurobiological condition. It is not caused by parenting styles. "Parents of ADHD are not bad parents, but they are certainly being challenged a lot more," says leading Australian ADHD advocate, Michele Toner.
MYTH 2: It can be cured by diet
Nothing can 'cure' ADHD, as such - it is an ongoing condition that can only be managed. The Failsafe diet, which eliminates certain foods, claims to have had some success in managing hyperactivity in ADHD kids. But it is a very strict diet and difficult to follow, plus the evidence that it helps is lacking.
MYTH 3: ADHD drugs are being over-prescribed
Figures from Western Australia show that 1.4% of children have been prescribed drugs for ADHD. However it's estimated that about 6% of school-age children have ADHD, so a vast majority remain unmedicated.
MYTH 4: ADHD kids are loud and disruptive
Many kids, particularly girls, may display more of a daydreaming symptom, or show lack of engagement in activities. This is also an ADHD symptom.
MYTH 5: ADHD kids aren't as smart
ADHD on its own does not affect intellectual ability. However, many children with ADHD may not do as well at school as their classmates because of their inability to concentrate.
MYTH 6: Kids grow out of it
About 70% of children with the disorder will continue to have ADHD symptoms during adolescence, and some of them will even experience symptoms that impair functioning into adulthood. Hyperactive symptoms appear to decrease with age but attention problems often persist into adulthood.
