For those of you spending your Memorial Day Weekend in Beantown, we have put together the ultimate agenda with a variety of events to choose from. Being on the top of the world—well, Boston for that matter —at the Skywalk Observatory, to enjoying delectable meals and cocktails at some of Boston's finest venues, this Memorial Day Weekend will certainly be an unforgettable experience.
Friday, May 24th:
It's down to just a day away and just like that, Electric Daisy Carnival New York is here. As it's the first to kick off the summer festival season in NYC, EDC NY will top last year's event and the festival's producer, Insomniac made sure of that. They have teamed up with nightlife gurus EMM Group, the team behind FINALE in NYC, where the two powerhouses will create the ultimate VIP experience for fans on May 17th and 18th at Citi Field.
Quality time with the girls is something we all need. Our schedules may be incredibly tight leading up to the summer months, but with warmer weather and spring in the air, a girls' weekend getaway is a great opportunity to relax, unwind, and sip a cocktail or two. Here are ten affordable and fun for everyone ideas for planning your next girls' trip.
Catch Rays at the Shore: Pack your bathing suit and head down the shore for some R&R with the girls. Sip a cocktail on the sand and catch some rays, while dishing the dirt. At night, hit up a nightclub or local bar for some socializing and dancing.
Book a Spa Treatment: Book a luxe spa retreat or spa day full of massages, facials, manis, and pedis. Treat your body and mind, while clocking quality girl time.
Visit a Winery: Tour a vineyard and explore a wide array of wines. The experience of being in the outdoors and sampling new wines with your girlfriends is great bonding, not to mention you'll be able to expand your repertoire of wines.
On St. Patty's Day we're all Irish and on Cinco de Mayo we're all Mexican. It's that time of year to be Mexican again. Are you ready for tequilas, cervezas, fish tacos, and sombreros? Joonbug loves a well-made tequila cocktail and also loves sipping on some good tequilas. You can't beat a day of Mexican food, drinks, and culture as I'm sure many of you embrace on this festive day. Cinco de Mayo started with Mexican-Americans on the west coast celebrating democracy and freedom at the start of the American Civil War. So how do we survive celebrating the holiday? Well Joonbug doesn't want you to just survive. We want you to relish. So here are some tips on what to include in your celebrations:
The Tribeca Film Festival wrapped up over the weekend after another successful year of premiere films, many of which will generate buzz once again during awards season. While the entire city was swarmed by A-list actors, the after-parties post film screenings were without a doubt one of the hottest places to be during the TFF. On Friday evening, deep below the crowded Ace Hotel lobby bar movie buffs, beer drinkers, and party-goers alike gathered in the green-lit Liberty Hall space to celebrate director David M. Rosenthal's film A Single Shot. The film stars Sam Rockwell, Jeffery Wright, William H. Macy, Kelly Reilly, Jason Isaacs, and Joe Anderson and tells "a personally driven father-daughter fable" that is "an engaging and suspenseful piece of work that is indie genre at its most spirited."
This summer people of the Tri-state area will have a sexy, trendy and fun new place to party right next to the ocean. Jump into the pool, enjoy a cocktail, catch a nice tan, party in the hot sun during the day and then party even harder at night. The place is the new HQ Beach Club at Revel Resort in Atlantic City.
Slated for a May opening, the remnant of highly successful HQ Nightclub will bring the first poolside, day-into-night party of its kind to the Northeast. Inspired by the beautiful Greek island of Mykonos, this 45,000 square foot adults-only, ocean side haven, will hold parties alongside the iconic Atlantic City boardwalk every weekend. Revelers will surely love the surroundings to which their summer days will turn into nights.
Cinco de Mayo maybe not be Mexican Independence Day and you may not know anything about purebred racing horses for The Kentucky Derby but that doesn't mean you don't want an excuse to head out to best spots in the city to celebrate! BarCrawls.com has spiced up the weekend so raise your margaritas and your tin-cupped mint juleps and join in on the fun with three distinct parties and a bar crawl. Check out the details below and click the party links to purchase your tickets!
Kentucky Derby Party at The Place: Tickets are $10 and allows you to celebrate the 'greatest two minutes in sports' on Saturday, May 4th. From 2pm until 9pm you'll enjoy food and drink specials!
In typical Vegas fashion, these two heavyweights will go head-to-head when the multi-million dollar nightclubs celebrate their grand openings a week apart. Hakkasan at the MGM Grand will open its nightclub portion of the venue April 18th with Grammy nominated Deadmau5 performing, while Mandalay Bay's Light will weigh in with Interscope Records' Zedd just 6 days later on April 24th. For a more in-depth look at both of these new heavy hitters, let's go to the tale-of-the-tape.
Hakkasan Restaurant & Nightclub at MGM Grand is a breathtaking new concept in dining and entertainment. While there are other Hakkasan venues worldwide, this will be their first venture on the Las Vegas Strip. This unique fusion of delicious Asian cuisine and exhilarating nightlife spans over 75,000 square feet and five levels. Envisioned and created by Hakkasan Ltd. and partners at Angel Management Group, the venue holds more than 7,000 people.
Last night, award-winning singer Kelly Rowland, kicked off Courvoisier Cognac's latest program, Courvoisiology, with a live performance. The event took place at SIR Stage 37 in New York City and the former Destiny's Child singer promoted her upcoming album, Talk a Good Game. Joonbug is no stranger to Courvoisier's new concept, Courvoisiology—read all about their New York City launch here.
Film lovers across from the around the world will gathering in lower Manhattan April 17-28th for the 11th Annual Tribeca Film Festival. The festival helps filmmakers to reach the broadest audience possible and enables the international film community and general public to experience the power of cinema. The festival which supports both emerging and established directors also helps to promote New York City as a major film making center. This year's Tribeca Film Festival will hold free events and movie screenings throughout the community.
From NYC to Mexico to Vegas, 1 OAK has made its mark in each city and now has plans for a new location on the historic Sunset Strip in Los Angeles. The Butter Group, New York's preeminent hospitality company and owners of renowned restaurants, The Darby and Butter; lounges and nightclubs, The Darby Downstairs, 1 OAK and 1 OAK Las Vegas announced today plans to unveil the first California outpost of hot spot, 1 OAK. Located at the former Key Club (9039 Sunset Boulevard), 1 OAK Los Angeles will open its doors in the space that once housed the likes of legendary musicians, including The Doors, Van Halen, Tom Petty, Tina Turner, Guns N' Roses, and Bon Jovi.

A remastered ("all-new graphics and visual effects in widescreen format," says Sega) version is coming to XBLA this fall with online co-op and battle modes, and a few others.
This is exactly what I've wanted on XBLA for a few reasons. Obviously, I'd like to play the game for much cheaper than the Saturn price. It also might be the start of more Saturn games getting the treatment, which would be amazing (Radiant Silvergun got an announcement I remember, but I can't think of any others yet.) And, just a continuation of more beat-em-ups for my consumption. More beat-em-ups and fighters please. Let me punch shit! Cool decision, Treasure/Sega.

Chili Beans
November 23, 2010, 05:54:34 am »
I want to make Chili Con Carne soon, and wanted to ask a couple of questions:
1)adding beans- would it work if I simply added rinsed kidney beans to the pot at the beginning(I'm going to cook it slowly: 8 hours on low fire)?The slow cooking book I have makes it sound as if the only good method of bean cooking is rinsing, bringing to a boil, and then cooking for 30-40 minutes.
2)What spices other then dry chilli flakes and ground cumin will work well?I want to make the Chili mild, rather then spicy(otherwise cinnamon would be an obvious addition)

Extremely technically, Chile con Carne doesn't have beans; it's the origin of the Texan saying, "If you know beans about chili, you know chili ain't got beans." But USian chili isn't chile con carne. </excessively pedantic>
Cinnamon makes an excellent addition to a mild chili, too.
But you don't use chile flakes in chili, you use chili powder, chipotles in adobo, the adobo sauce, dried chiles, smoked chiles, and/or fresh chiles. Maybe a little lime juice, or a bottle of beer (decent, drinkable stuff, but not expensive nice stuff). But a good chili, even a mild one, doesn't need a lot of seasoning.

I'm all for garlic and onions. And oregano. and possibly smoked paprika. (in addition to various chili peppers and cumin.)
Also, the dried spices should be toasted before you build the chili.
If you're doing chili with beans, rather than chili colorado or chili verde or chili con carne, generally there's a sweet note, too--molasses or brown sugar. (Or maple syrup, if you live around here.)
But then, I *like* highly spiced, complex chili.

MadGastronomer: sorry for the confusion- I thought I was using the right term.The recipe I have (Lakeland's Slow Cooking book) is about 1:1:1 ground beef:chopped tomatoes:kidney beans- and after reading your post I'm still unsure whether they'd be good after 8 hours' cooking or not. In addition could you unpack the last paragraph for me?You use some terms I'm not familiar with, adobo sauce, for example.
Ms. Bear- I like very spicy and complex stuff as well, but my SO doesn't like spicy(the woes of living with heretics..), and a couple of the guests like it but get heartburn easily, so spicy is out. How much sugar would you add to a pot based around 1 kg ground beef?
PS. I understood cinnamon stresses the spicy taste when both are present?

To taste: a tablespoon or three. I wouldn't use white sugar, though, under any circumstances.
Adobo sauce, etc, are ingredients common in Mexican or southwestern American cooking. I doubt very much you can find those things other than mail order where you are.
MG is allowing her regional bias to influence her comments. *g* In Texas, chili con carne doesn't have beans. In other U.S. states, it may, and you will find recipes for it both ways. Brady would make a disapproving noise at chili with beans; Chaz would laugh at him.
It's a religious issue, basically.
If you can't get dried whole Mexican or American chilis (ancho would be best, if you want mild chili that still tastes like chili) and I suspect that might be a bit hard to turn up where you are, any mild chili locally available will do.
As for the beans--if you soak them overnight, they shouldn't take that long to cook, and will probably disintegrate in that amount of time. If you don't pre-soak, they might still be a bit chalky.

As I understand it, in Mexico, the traditional form of chile con carne is a stew of chiles, meat, and maybe some tomatoes, and no beans, thickened with masa. I'm not being religious about it -- I both like and serve chili with beans -- I'm drawing a culinary distinction. US chili is not the same dish as chile con carne, in much the same way the US pizza bears very little actual resemblance to the original Italian throw-some-stuff-on-flatbread-and-bake-it pizza. US chili is highly regionalized, and beans are definitely a religious issue there. But the research I've done into the Mexican dish, which descends from a pre-European dish that is a stew of meat and chiles, tells me that Mexican chile con carne doesn't have beans. I mentioned the Texan saying mostly because it makes me laugh, and because Texan chili is closer to traditional chile con carne, in that it doesn't have beans, than most of the regional US variations.
If you slowcook your canned beans, you'll get some exploded ones, and the texture won't be optimal, but you can certainly do it.
Chili flakes -- which, in the US, is a seasoning found on the table in Italian-American restaurants and pizza places -- are not very good quality, and are not blended for optimal flavor. Chili powder
, and is generally blended specifically for chili. In Mexico, adobo is a marinade for chipotles, which are smoked ripe jalapeno peppers. You generally buy canned chipotles in adobo, and then you've both. Very tasty, but pretty spicy.
I'm not aware of cinnamon enhancing heat, but it definitely enhances meaty umami flavors, and is good in any red meat or pork stew.

Yes, in Mexico--but many of the American dishes are referred to as chili con carne, also.

oh god, chili ... *whimpers* another wonderful thing the Chinese have yet to discover.
You could use honey as the sweetener too, although personally I think maple syrup goes better with cinnamon.
I don't know where you are located, but at least in California you can also get chipotle powder, which I love to death. It's expensive, but a little goes a long way and the smokiness comes through just as strongly as the capsaicin, if not moreso. And in smoked chiles like chipotles the spice level is also rather less punchy than the unsmoked version. I've used it to add flavor to dishes that ended up not tasting peppery at all.
...edited to use English grammar and not chinglish. sigh.

I offer a Google page of chili con carne recipes as corroboration.
It's not authentically Mexican. But it is common terminology.

Common, yes, but inaccurate and unclear. To me, the distinction between the two dishes is very plain, and this is like correct use of the subjunctive or similar. It's my field, I'm being pedantic and technical about it, because that's my nature. I was trying to acknowledge that with the "</excessively pedantic>" faux-tag. Yes, in common parlance, the dish antongarou is making could certainly be called chili con carne. But this is technical language to me, and indicates a different dish.
ETA: I was delineating the difference in order to define the terms as I was using them, not as an attempt to be prescriptive about others' language. Again, I was attempting to use the faux-tag as a way to indicate that humorously. It didn't work. I'm sorry.

Re: Chilis- we have locally grown chili and jalapeno peppers. how many per same pot?I assume I mince them and mix with the beef before I fry it, right?Also, reminder to Madgastronomer: I live in Israel, please do not assume we have US regional products
(we have some, like tabasco, but definitely not everything.) I don't even know what chili powder is, and why it differs from chili flakes- my spice seller carries powdered sudanese shata peppers, is that it?
Re:beans I was thinking about using dry beans instead of buying canned and then adding them to the stew- if 8 hours is too much I can add them at any stage.

White sugar doesn't get into my kitchen without a very good reason(only one to date was making lemoncello:). My usual sweeteners are brown suger, date syrup and honey.
ETA: MAdGastronomer- no biggie. over here I have to explain to people that linguistics isn't about our equivalent of English lessons(called "Language" lessons).

are the two parts of the Good Eats episode on chili. The section on chili powder begins at about 4:08, and includes a recipe for making it. Just before that is a nutritional anthropologist who says I'm full of beans on the history, which may be true. *shrug* I surrender.

In Texas, it is very common to have two giant pots simmering on the stove: one of chili, one of pinto beans. Guests mix the two as they please. Some people add rice, but that's even worse heresy than cooking the beans in the chili! If you want a starch, use saltines or oyster crackers. (I have no idea what the Israeli equivalents would be, but you have google and a brain.)
If you don't want a lot of heat, do *not* mince the jalapeños! Leave them whole so you can remove them. Don't let the seeds into the dish; that's where the heat is.
Cinnamon is delicious, but not at all a Mexican thing. I don't put sugar [edit: or any sweetener] in my chili, ever; that's what caramelized onions are for. I brown the onions first, then the beef (ground or in chunks; it's a stylistic thing). You want more chili powder than cumin.
Here's a recipe from my hometown's spice blender:
Their chili powder has cayenne, oregano, cumin, and garlic salt. Bear in mind that cayenne gets hotter the longer it sits.

Ever since we had chili served to us in Hawaii some 20 years ago, we've eaten it over rice.
My husband also likes flavor without heat, and we have had great success with the Penzey's mild chili powder; Penzey's likewise makes what I think is a superb chili seasoning, Chili 9000, which includes some cinnamon and a bunch of other good stuff.
will give you the run-down on both (and the other chili seasonings they sell).
Lately, instead of the rice, we've crumbled tortilla chips into the chili about 20 minutes before serving and stirred it in, for a thicker and noticeably more chili-tasting product. Yum!

FSA are the beginners force of choice - they are apparently the best all rounders with the best starter box.
The Brits are pretty good, I play KOB and Covenant and although I much prefer the Covenant ships the Brits can be fairly hard to beat. They have some excellent torpedo capability which doesn't get reduced by damage. The battleship doesn't dish out the most damage but you give it 2 shield generators and it will take your opponent all night to sink it!! The double shields make it hard as nails, just steam it into the midst of your opponents fleet and let rip.
And.. the energy turrets are proving to be better than expected. A few games in with them now and I think I'm getting there. Using them is forcing me to adopt a very specific style of play but its been fairly effective so far.

I can honestly say that since I didn't purchase the warranty I would not like to purchase this phone again. I have issues with it locking up or not receiving certain messages through text where I have to shut the phone down often to receive text messages.
The style and size is great as well as the battery life. Functions are easy as well as the phone quality but it does have some issues.

2. Stand straight with your heels together and arms down at your sides.
E.Neck Size
Take the tape around your neck.
F.Shoulder Size
Take the tape from the edge of shoulder socket across the back to the same point on the other shoulder.

With the majority of last years squad returning this fall, and the addition of a handful of talented freshmen, Coach Wes Wooley is looking forward to another successful season cheering on the Flying Dutchmen basketball team to another winning season. Integral to the squads success will be an experienced core group of veterans, including last football seasons Most Valuable Athlete, junior, Karly Annett of Bloomfield Hills, Mich., and Most Improved, junior, Alex Stradel of Muskegon, Mich. Elected by the squad as captains for football season are juniors, Karly Annett, Laurel Mattice of Woodland, Mich., Alex Stradal, and senior, Olivia Haines of Gowen, Mich. The Hope cheerleaders came together the first week of August to return to the largest regional college cheerleading camp in the country sponsored by Universal Cheerleading Association (UCA) in Milwaukee, Wisc. The Hope squad, comprised of four men and ten women, joined over a thousand cheerleaders representing colleges and universities from all over the Midwest and beyond, on the campus of the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee. Over four days, the squad worked on new skills, honed their safety technique, came together as a team and competedtt in competitions with routines learned at camp. As one of just a few NCAA Division III colleges in attendance, the Hope squad participated in camp competitions in a very competitive Small Coed Division which consisted mostly of Div. I universities. Despite their lack of experience and smaller squad size, Hope earned a second place trophy in the Fight Song competition, as well as blue ribbons in every evaluation in which they participated. With only senior, Olivia Haines having previous college camp experience, this very positive outcome in Milwaukee represents a substantial accomplishment and a prominsing future for the Hope Cheerleading program. |

SpineCor Scoliosis Treatment Coming to the Carribean
March 14th, 2013The revolutionary SpineCor system for scoliosis will soon become the primary conservative management for scoliosis in the Carribean. Dr. Charles Isadore of Castries, St. Lucia will be offering the system at his clinic. Dr. Tom Pappas of Scoliosis Specialists will be in St. Lucia training providers on the SpineCor brace and protocol.
SpineCor Scoliosis Brace is the first and only truly dynamic brace, which provides a progressive correction of Idiopathic Scoliosis. Traditional rigid braces are non-dynamic and create muscle atrophy.
Dr. Pappas has been working with scoliosis for over 15 years and training providers on scoliosis management for over 5 years, and is considered one of the most knowledgeable sources on conservative management of scoliosis. Along with bracing, specific exercises will be discussed.
Recent research has shown that bracing with a dynamic brace along with SpineCor exercises can reduce a curve degree. The SpineCor Physiotherapy Program has been designed to complement the action of the brace and reinforce the principles of the treatment. Precise exercises have been designed for each type of scoliosis curve, according to the specific spine deformation and postural disorganization of the patient.
To take advantage of this opportunity and to schedule an appointment, please call Dr. Isadore's office at (758) 572-6000. Please note that appointment time is very limited. Dr. Isadore will be seeing scoliosis patients with Dr. Pappas from March 25th - 27th.

Not just the tourists need a guide for scoping out the hottest scenes this summer. Some native New Yorkers could still use a bit of help when it comes to finding the best outdoor workout spots.
Melisse Gelula and Alexia Brue, the co-founders of WellandGoodNYC.com, put a list together for NY1 using their "Healthy Summer Guide To New York 2012," starting with morning salutations from Yoga Vida right under the shelter of the arch in Washington Square Park. "Yoga Vida is one of the yoga studios in New York City that is participating in the outdoor summer series. They have two studios and meet here every Wednesday morning at 8:30," says Gelula. Then one can "Zen" the pounds away with affirmations and a yoga cardio blend with IntenSati, led by instructor Lindsay Davis in Central Park on Saturday mornings.
"Lindsay has been offering IntenSati in Central Park for about two summers now, 10:30, everybody meets at the giant globe and walks in together," says Gelula.
There is also free, organized after-work running.
"The Meatpacking District Run Club is new this summer. It's a collaboration between Icebreaker, which is an an outdoor fitness apparel store, really chic and hip with the SportsCenter at Chelsea Piers, and their run coaches," says Gelula. "Every Tuesday night they meet. It's wonderful to be able to stash your bags at the store, go for your run knowing they are secure and then come back to the store and they serve beverages and snacks and there are discounts. So it is a great community event." The guide hits every borough, to help New Yorkers in every part of the city. "No matter what neighborhood you live in, you'll find probably a fitness class in your local park," says Brue. "So many of the classes take place in some of the most iconic settings in New York, whether it is the arch in Washington Square Park or the new Pier 25 in TriBeCa and looking at the Hudson River. So it is an amazing way to take in the city and get healthy at the same time."

Hello everyone. I know that we all are experiencing things differently or similar. Also we have those who just want to be negative and attempt to hijack threads, or do so. We, of those that want to get the game going in a better direction. With the help of the Specialists of course. Need a coherent, intelligent, thread to discuss these matters.
My intention with this thread is to give us this chance. Please be respectful to each other. Please no knit picking about the past games, as in Grenade Launchers, OMA, DC these things are no longer a issue since Black Ops. Or things you want to see gone because you dont like to use them.
Also, I will ask the Moderators to watch this thread and to deal with those whom seem to not understand this threads purpose.
We have a report function now, and believe me. This one guy on here knows how to hit the head on the nail.
Please NO FLAMING, RUDENESS, ARGUING or anything of the like.
Peace to all Gamers, no matter the Console.
WE are all Family.

Re-spawning needs a serious look at, it really does.
Why respawn me in front of an enemy player? he will happily shoot me, take the points/kill confirmed and wait for his next victim.
I'm not talking about being respawned in front of an enemy who's running, that can't be helped, but in front of someone who is sitting/standing in a corner somewhere waiting for an opposing player to go by? surely that can be fixed
Why can't it be made so that we have an option on re-spawn, say like: "SPAWN ON TEAM MATE" ---"SPAWN AT A - B - C - ???", A B C ??? , would be shown on the mini map, enabling players to choose a safe spot to spawn. just my thoughts, and those of my friends, who, like me have been re-spawned in front of an enemy player.
Thanks for reading this
I think there was some message that went out that they were adjusting the spawns this go around because of people whining about spawn trapping, spawn killing etc. Though the way it is now is way worse. Yes you might have died in a gunfight, acceptable. Respawn. Run out. Dead by a guy you just spawned in front of. I MEAN RIGHT IN FRONT OF. Also some of the start off points in Domination are ridiculous.
I noticed on Fallen, you start off right behind B. A and C are on the opposite side of map nearer the enemies side.??? They do need to fix the spawns.
COD multiplayer needs a "Mute all" option or better yet "Auto Mute". Nothing would make me happier then not needing to spend the first minutes of every match muting each and every person that has their microphone activated so I can concentrate on having fun.. Currently I have to resort to turning on my headset then promptly putting it on mute and under a pillow... Please Activision, I can't be the only one thinking this would be nice.. Thank you.
Agreed. Sometimes the constant chattering about nothing, music and things of that nature are over bearing.
Some more options with scopes would be nice... entirely different game but homefront gives 4 different options for red dot, holographic and iron sites per... mw3 holographic is badass, it would be great to see 3 more badass holo's... red dot site is a little cheesy
To be able to upload custom camouflage for our guns would be cool
Would also be nice if we were able to see our player model when selecting classes
bots... give us the ability to set up private games with bots and not have to be connected online to do so.
For the game to be expandable and add more guns down the road... i miss the TAR-21
Yeah Im having problems with seeing people and when I do see them Im dead.
When I also shoot my gun I get alot of hitmarkers? I never had this problem in Mw2. It just seems like my aim and reactions is not good enough in this game. I hope I am not the only one.
With that said they said they was going to eliminate power points and they did just that..So the maps are really wierd and it will grow on us after the lag(whatever this is) get fixed.
Best COD game to date from what I can see. Its not the game mechanics its the servers as for they did a good job on balance(adding recoil, perk change up,etc)
People have been crying about the perks. Saying that they suck but I think they hate the fact that Ghost and Slight of Hand has been broke down into multiple pieces.
How about adding objective stats on the scoreboard...not every game is TDM. I want to see how many dog tags i pick up and deny, home many captures i get...etc. Its not all about Kills, Assists, and Deaths. What a major step backwards.
I hit the multiplayer arena the night it was released and felt cheated by the lag issues but played last night and it was just brilliant even when I didn't do so well I could tell it was down to poor choice of tactics, poor aim or getting excited/annoid and rushing far too much. It played just like it should and I can't wait to get home from work tonight and get back on. This is a formula a franchise just like the other majors McDonalds, Starbucks, Subway etc you know what your gonna get when you go to one of these joints. If they changed too much it wouldn't be the same experience, it's evolving, Elite if utilised properly will bring the gaming society (that is exactly what we are) together more than ever before and that human element is what makes multiplayer gaming so addictive and fun. So a bit of patience and thought put into playing and you will be rewarded. I am grateful for what we have now it used to be two rectangular lines and a square ball for gods sake, look how far we have come and just appreciate the time, skill and effort that has been put into this series. It will never be perfect but for one minute just sit back and truly think about what we can now enjoy compared to ten twenty years ago.
Cheers and see y'all in the ring.
I find that talking in the lobby and in game, sounds distorted and low. I do have turtle beaches and it seems you can hear people better in black ops. I don't know if this can be fixed but I bigger problem that I think is reasonable to change in an update; is to allow us to have more volume settings. Example instead of one main game volume, have master, effects, music, and game chat. I know alot of people that would love to turn down the lobby music and game music without turning it backup to hear gun fire and footsteps.

WINSTED — "For a Monday morning game, I thought both teams played well," said first-year Wamogo coach Tony Addona, following a 1-0 Warrior win at Northwestern High School.
Highlander coach Andy Campbell was blunter about the Monday effect: "They were asleep; we were asleep. Sam Jepson was not asleep. That's the difference in the game," he said.
Jepson, a junior forward, scored just three minutes into the game. Then the two teams demonstrated the strengths and weaknesses that have the Warriors 5-2-1 so far this year, the Highlanders, 4-4.
Both teams have good size; the Highlanders are young. Wamogo has more veterans.
After early volleying, Wamogo senior Albion Adili pushed the ball up to Jepson 15 yards on Northwestern's left wing. Northwestern junior goalkeeper Palmer Piana ran out for the ball. His dive missed. Jepson lined his eighth goal of the season into an empty net.
For the rest of the half, the Warriors got off several wide open shots, including one to the outside of the Northwestern post, but couldn't find the net again.
"Finishing has been our Achilles heel," said Coach Addona. "We'll have to go back to the training ground and work some more on our finishes."
Northwestern was one step short of that. Often controlling play in the open field, the Highlanders took just two shots in the half to six by the Warriors.
"We don't have people who want to take possession for that last finish," said Coach Campbell.
The second half magnified the first. Northwestern controlled much of the play, pulling even on shots, 8-8. Continued...
One of Wamogo's biggest strengths, senior goalkeeper Mark Davis (8 saves), was there for the tough shots. Others went wild or nobody pulled the trigger at all.
"It's more than just the saves with Davis," said Northwestern coach Campbell. "He controls a lot of what happens on the back line, directing traffic and moving his players."
"It's always good to have a keeper like him," grinned Wamogo's Jepson.
Nevertheless, the half frustrated both sides.
"We're usually good at possessing," said Jepson.
"We can't win based on possession," said Warrior coach Addona in a statement Coach Campbell might have made for Northwestern.
Still, the chances were there for both sides.
Northwestern's best shot came 13 minutes in, point blank off Davis on the ground at the goal mouth.
Jepson served several nice crosses to the box from his left corner. Each time, the shots were wide.
In the 27th minute, Northwestern came all the way up the field on a great combination of passes, then couldn't find a shot. Continued...
"We can win ugly," Jepson grinned.
Both coaches agreed.

Matt Burns, spokesman for the Health Network, said the practices are a range of general internal medicine and family medicine practices that had been scattered in different leased facilities around the area.
The move will consolidate Heritage Family Medicine, General Internal Medicine of the Lehigh Valley, Primary Care Associates and Rheumatology Associates.
In addition to the convenience created by having the network practices under one roof, Burns said the moves will allow for growth.
"There were space problems at some of the previous locations and this solves that problem," he said.
The moves will be staggered and Burns expects them to continue through January.
One other advantage to the new building, according to Burns, is that it provides convenient, sheltered parking. The entire first floor of the building is dedicated to parking.
The construction manager on the new building was Allied Building Corp. of Bethlehem. Financing was handled by Embassy Bank for the Lehigh Valley.
The address of the new medical office building is 3060 Hamilton Blvd., Allentown.

GILBERT: Good old days of civility gone for lawmakers
Pitched battles between executive and legislative branches might take new forms as divided government persists in the nation, regardless of who wins the presidential election Nov. 6.
President Obama has used his authority to modify or influence policies on same-sex marriage, welfare, education and illegal immigration. But Republicans are promising to use legislative methods to thwart implementation of the president's signature health insurance reform law, and likely would try to starve his environmental initiatives.
Reassertion of executive authority is not just happening at the federal level either, and not just when different parties control one branch or another.
Republican Gov. Rick Snyder used executive action to push through plans for a second bridge to Canada, and he is threatening to order the formation of a joint federal-state health exchange for Michigan to implement Obamacare, in defiance of the GOP-dominated legislature.
Oakland University political scientist David Dulio said there are differences among the examples cited.
The examples involving Obama and Congress reflect efforts to "stop something one branch of government doesn't like."
Meanwhile, "Snyder is trying to get somewhere others aren't willing to go. One could say the president is doing this too when he talks about helping the middle class with executive-only initiatives."
Dulio said "the relationship between the president and Congress has reached a boiling point. Clearly, divided government doesn't help. But that's a scenario that the nation is familiar with — unified government is the exception to the rule these days at the federal level. Plus, there is some evidence that the public prefers divided government; they don't like one party to have all the power, yet they get irritated and frustrated when a divided government can't get anything done."
Writing in The Wall Street Journal recently, former federal officials David Rivkin and Lee Casey addressed Obama's executive orders on enforcement of immigration laws and the "No Child Left Behind" law.
These orders "were implemented by suspending enforcement or waiving applications of laws Mr. Obama does not like," they wrote. Continued...
"The president cannot write — or rewrite — the laws," Rivkin and Casey added.
"The Constitution makes Congress the legislature, and the president cannot simply ignore its decisions. The entire system of separation of powers — which is the heart of the Constitution's checks and balances designed to limit governmental power and thereby protect individual liberty — depends upon each branch of the federal government fulfilling its assigned role and respecting that of the others. Unfortunately, Mr. Obama has now made clear that he won't respect these basic constitutional limits on his power."
Well, the Republicans have pretty much made the same thing clear with reference to Obamacare.
Even if Romney wins the presidency, the Senate is likely to remain in Democratic hands or, at best for the GOP, closely divided. There will not be the votes to repeal Obamacare as Republicans are disingenuously promising voters. Many Republican lawmakers openly have boasted they can defund the duly approved health care law, thereby sabotaging its implementation.
"I think it's more common for the Congress to not fund something than it is for the president to say 'we're not going to enforce this particular law,' " Dulio said.
"Clearly, President Obama wants some additional victories going into November and he can claim credit with some constituencies that are important to his electoral coalition.
"I think Congress is on firmer footing with their actions," Dulio added. "They have the power of the purse. That is undeniable. If they don't want to fund a program, it's up to them. I think it's less clear on the executive side when the president directs an agency to not enforce a law. Sure they can claim 'prosecutorial discretion' and they are in charge of carrying out the law as part of the executive branch, but to ignore laws seems extreme."
Obama's Justice Department refused to defend the federal Defense of Marriage Act in a court challenge
Both sides resort to legal challenges these days when they don't like a law. Just because they lost their most recent challenge to Obamacare in the U.S. Supreme Court doesn't mean Republicans won't mount another legal fight and, in fact, conservatives are contesting the Department of Health and Human Services edict that insurance companies pay for contraception under Obamacare.
Whatever happened to the good old days of civility, with the two parties respecting each others' achievements, improving them if necessary, and just moving forward? Continued...
We would still be fighting old wars over civil rights, Medicare and Social Security if today's attitudes had prevailed decades ago.
Fair play seems to be a forgotten concept.

ALBANY, GA -- An armed robbery took place early Saturday morning at 505 North Central Street, Apartment B.
The victim, 49-year-old L.C. Phillips, stated that an unknown black male knocked on the door and asked for a cigarette, which led Phillips to invite the man inside.
Once inside, the suspect pulled out a gun and robbed Phillips taking an undetermined amount of money, plus two bottles of liquor.
Albany Police officials are still investigating the incident and are asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at (229) 436-TIPS.

The talk will be led by Professor Michael Martin, associate professor of ULL's Department of History and the director of the Center of Louisiana Studies. He will provide an overview of the creation of the New Orleans Saints football franchise in 1965. The discussion will also address the political wheeling-and-dealing that went on in Louisiana and Washington, D.C., to get the National Football League an antitrust exemption so that the NFL could absorb its increasingly competitive rival, the American Football League.
Martin who is the director of the Center of Louisiana Studies and associate professor in ULL's Department of History, leads courses at the university on Louisiana, Public History, the U. S.

OKThe Sheltering Sky is a landmark of 20th-century literature, a novel of existential despair that examines the limits of humanity when it touches the unfathomable emptiness of the desert. Academy Award-winning actress Jennifer Connelly (A Beautiful Mind, Requiem for a Dream) gives masterful voice to this American classic.
In his bravest and most challenging book yet, Seth Godin shows how we can thrive in an economy that rewards art, not compliance. He explains why true innovators focus on trust, remarkability, leadership, and stories that spread. And he makes a passionate argument for why you should be treating your work as art. Art is not a gene or a specific talent. It's an attitude, available to anyone who has a vision that others don't, and the guts to do something about it.
There's no such thing as easy money - as surgeon Edward Hammond is about to find out. Thirteen years ago he performed a lifesaving operation on a Serbian gangster, Dragan Gazi. Gazi is now standing trial for war crimes in the international court in The Hague. After his life was saved, his men went on to slaughter thousands in the Balkan civil wars.

Flintridge Proper: A restaurant for La Cañada
By Tiffany Kelly,
April 24, 2013
On a recent Saturday night at Flintridge Proper, well-dressed couples and multi-generational families occasionally left their tables or bar stools to talk to people they knew across the room. The 3,000-square-foot La Cañada Flintridge bar and restaurant feels more like the inside of a neighbor's living room than a place that serves oysters and champagne cocktails. Two separate rooms evoke two different atmospheres - one a library with historic memorabilia and photos, the other a chic lounge with tall, custom-made chairs and bartenders in suspenders mixing up vintage cocktails.
'Feels like home,' new Crescenta Valley Sheriff's commander says
By Tiffany Kelly,
May 8, 2013
Capt. Bill Song, the new commander of the Crescenta Valley Sheriff's Station, has returned to his roots. Song grew up in the area, attending Rosemont Middle School and Crescenta Valley High School. Since then, he's moved to Claremont and has built a 22-year career at the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. He most recently worked as an executive aide to Asst. Sheriff Cecil Rhambo. But Song said it's good to be back in La Crescenta, and to be given the opportunity to become reacquainted with the area as an adult.

The average purchase price of homes in Pasadena and La Cañada Flintridge rose in November compared to a year earlier, continuing a trend that took hold in the second half of 2012. In La Cañada, the average price of a home sold in November was $1.66 million, according to statistics compiled by agent Keith Sorem at Keller Williams in Glendale.

Dancing is her passion. Kelly Phelan has been taking dance instruction classes ? from ballet and tap to jazz, Broadway and lyrical ? for just about half of her 8-year-old life. The youth said there?s nothing she?d rather do than tap her toes and move her feet. But, there?s more to this week?s Valley Sun All-Star than rhythm, tempo and talent. The Palm Crest Elementary School third-grader also has a passion for people and making life a little brighter for those less fortunate. Kelly?
La Cañada volleyball season halted in CIF quarterfinals
By Jeff Tully,
May 11, 2013
LA CAÑADA - The La Cañada High boys' volleyball team was outplayed in the first two games of its CIF Southern Section Division III quarterfinal playoff match Saturday against Hemet and, as a result, found itself in a big hole. Despite losing the first two games, the Spartans played better in the third, but still found themselves facing match-point and trailing by four points. But the Spartans held on for dear life, scoring six straight points to win the third and force a fourth game.
Brian Sullivan leaving Descanso Gardens for a New York facility
By Tiffany Kelly,
March 13, 2013
Brian Sullivan started his career at Descanso Gardens with no experience. But after 18 years at the La Cañada Flintridge facility, he is moving on to a larger garden in New York City. Sullivan will leave his role as Descanso's director of horticulture on Friday. On April 1, he will become vice president for landscape, gardens and outdoor collections at the New York Botanical Garden, a 250-acre site in the Bronx that was founded in 1891. After living in California for more than 20 years ago, Sullivan said he never expected to leave.
Neighbors squabble over RV parking
By Daniel Siegal,
June 13, 2012
While La Cañada Flintridge officials consider a new citywide regulation for recreational vehicles, a hot spot has been on Tondolea Lane. Resident David Hotchkin and his neighbor Amir Hemmati have clashed over the presence of Hemmati's RV at his home, and Hotchkin has a history of raising the RV issue with city officials. In July 2011, Hotchkin appeared at a City Council meeting to appeal the city's approval of a project on Los Amigos Street that included space for RV parking.
La Cañada Flintridge Farmer's Market is for suburban foodies
By Lisa Dupuy
March 27, 2013
Farmer's markets are not just for farmers anymore. Many of them, such as the weekly La Cañada Flintridge Farmer's Market, play host to purveyors of artisanal and specialty foods . From canapes to coffee, you can fill your basket with every ingredient for dinner, not just for the salad. Things are buzzing right at opening time of 9 a.m. each Saturday at the LCFFM. The first thing you'll want to do is get a cup of coffee at Forge. They roast the beans in small batches every Friday night close by in the San Fernando Valley so you can be sure you're getting the absolute freshest coffee Saturday morning.
Pasadena takes note of Eagle Scouts' Hahamongna upgrades
By Daniel Siegal,
December 19, 2012
A recent Eagle Scout project in Hahamongna Watershed Park improved a stretch of local trail, but it also gave rise to a border dispute between Los Angeles County and the city of Pasadena. On Dec. 8 members of La Cañada Flintridge Troop 507, their friends and family came out to help Makoto Inouye, 17, finish the Eagle Scout project he had planned with the help of county Parks and Recreation Department employee Ron Beltran. The volunteers repainted the concrete pedestrian and equestrian tunnel that passes under Oak Grove Avenue, added 130 feet of split-log rail fencing, put down decomposed granite to improve the trail and added a new sign.
Verdugo Hills Hospital doctors expect mixed bag
By Daniel Siegal,
March 20, 2013
With USC's acquisition of Verdugo Hills Hospital finalized last week, doctors on staff at Verdugo Hills are saying the merger's impact likely will be a mixed bag. Dr. Ben Pradhan, an orthopedic surgeon, said USC's acquisition of the hospital will have upsides and downsides for healthcare in the foothills area. "It's win-lose if they improve the facilities, but they'll also send patients down [to Keck Medical Center] and do the cases at USC, as opposed to at a local hospital," he said.
School district wraps up survey program
By Megan O'Neil,
June 2, 2012
La Cañada Unified School District officials are moving into the final stages of a districtwide survey that could help shape everything from annual goals and school safety policies to curriculum. The district recently wrapped up a parent questionnaire, the third of four surveys being administered this spring. It was preceded by surveys of students and teachers, and will be followed by a survey of classified staff. The parent survey was conducted online, with participants required to log into a secure website using an access code.
Classmates hold a vigil, City Council observes a moment of silence
By Tiffany Kelly,
March 6, 2013
A somber mood hung over the city this week as students, staff and parents remembered a student who jumped to his death Friday afternoon from a building on the La Cañada High School campus. Campbell Forrest Taylor, 17, was a senior at the school. Friends described him as an ambitious and outspoken young man who channeled his creative energy into theater and the school newspaper, The Spartan. PHOTOS: Memorial at La Cañada High "He was not afraid to take on controversial issues," said Kevork Kurdoghlian, a former editor of The Spartan and 2012 graduate of La Cañada High.
Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy agrees to stick to enrollment cap
By Tiffany Kelly,
February 6, 2013
After neighbors criticized Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy for exceeding its city-mandated enrollment cap, the school will admit a smaller freshman class this fall. A total of 385 students - the maximum number the school can hold under a conditional-use permit granted by the city in 1994 - will attend the school in August. The current enrollment is 410. Last year, members of the group Protect LCF complained to the city that the school's enrollment was over its limit. They objected to the resulting extra traffic to the curvy, narrow streets that lead to the hillside campus.

WEST CHESTER A locomotive that hauled coal for Exelons Cromby Generating Station will be greeted by West Chester Railroad officials Wednesday in its new home on South Adams Street.
Now entering semi-retirement, the 43-year old locomotive spent the last 15 years pulling 40 to 50 coal cars to fuel the Cromby coal power plant in East Pikeland, according to Derek Slifer, director of passenger operations at the tourist railroad.
Once the locomotive is restored, about a two-year process, it will run 90-minute scenic round trips between Market Street in West Chester and the village of Glen Mills, pulling several cars of tourists.
The locomotive was originally used for road service, pulling very, very heavy freight cars, Slifer said. Working for the tourist line, will be very, very easy; a walk in the park.
The locomotive was built in July 1969 and has plenty of life left, Slifer said, but it is in some need of exterior restoration.
They need people to fix them and thats where we come in, Slifer said. If you take care of them, theyll last forever.
Most of the work needed is superficial; for example, the engineers cab needs a new floor. The diesel engine and inner workings are in good running condition, he said. Restoration costs are estimated at $20,000, though that amount is not definite.
You never know what youre going to find, what needs to be replaced, Slifer said about the work ahead.
Work will be done as the funds, which come solely from ticket sales, become available.
Since the labor is provided by volunteers who can only donate their time on the weekends, the restoration process will be slow. And if a problem comes up, such as emergency track work, then work on the locomotive will stop, Slifer explained.
Once body work is completed, the unit will be painted in the WCRR color scheme to match the other locomotives in the fleet.
Our main job is to provide families with nice family events, to keep the railroad alive with the youth, Slifer said. Railroads are a dying art. Projects like this attract younger volunteers to get involved.
The locomotive amounts to a $140,000 donation from Exelon. It became available when Exelon decided to retire the Cromby power plant on the Schuylkill River.
West Chester Railroad does great work in the community, said Tim Wirth, senior communications specialist at Exelon Generation in Kennett Square. Exelon felt donating the locomotive was a great way to give something to someone who will make practical use of it.
The locomotive needs a good bit of exterior work and West Chester Railroad has done a great job in the past restoring equipment, Wirth said.
The Cromby plant was always active in the community. Now that it is retired, donating the locomotive is a nice way to pay it forward ... to honor its industrial history, Wirth said. And were glad to give it a second life.
The locomotive is an GP38 built by General Motors Electro Motive Division. It has a 16-cylinder, 10,320-cubic inch, 2,000-horsepower diesel engine and weighs 125 tons.
It was bought brand new by the Penn Central railroad in 1969.
When Penn Central went bankrupt in 1970 the locomotive, along with all other assets, were absorbed into Conrail in 1976.
The locomotive served Conrail until the mid-1990s when it was purchased by PECO to work in the Cromby Generating Station.

By this point in her career, Sue Bird is the epitome of a veteran. She's about to become a three-time Olympian, is a two-time WNBA champion and is entering her 11th season playing for the Seattle Storm.
While all those descriptions are meaningful, the one that most defines Bird is the one she's probably the most reluctant to accept: the player all other female American point guards will be compared to in the future.
"I think most point guards will always be compared to Sue because of the success she's had at the collegiate level and the WNBA and with the Olympics," Seattle coach Brian Agler said. "She has tremendous instincts and great feel for making her teammates better. She's probably as good at that as I've seen. And I've never seen anybody who can just come down and hit clutch shots. She just has a knack of finding ways to do those things."
Bird gets to take on a new role when the Storm tips off its season tonight (7 p.m., 6/16) against the visiting Los Angeles Sparks. Seattle has one of the most talented rosters in the WNBA with Bird, Camile Little, Katie Smith, Tanisha Wright and the addition of Tina Thompson, not to mention No. 2 overall draft pick Shekinna Stricklen.
But missing from that equation will be Bird's running mate during her entire career in Seattle, three-time league MVP Lauren Jackson, who is staying in Australia to train with the national team for the London Olympics and will rejoin Seattle in August after the games.
It's not new for Seattle to play without Jackson, who has missed games due to injuries in three of the past four seasons. But this is the first time the Storm heads into a season understanding that Jackson won't be around, rather than being blindsided by a sudden ailment.
"It's not me going into each game like I have to be different because Lauren is here or she isn't. It just kind of happens," Bird said. "It's the nature of the game and how it unfolds."
Even after a decade running the show in Seattle, playing for the U.S. national team or playing professionally overseas, Bird has yet to show any signs of decline. Although her assist numbers dipped in 2011, Bird averaged a career-best 14.7 points, while shooting nearly 43 percent from 3-point range. Seattle made the playoffs for the eighth straight year, but was dispatched in the first round for the sixth time in those eight seasons.
Playing without Jackson has become a regular occurrence for Seattle. Jackson has played just one nearly full season since 2007 and that came in 2010 when Seattle won its second league title and Jackson was MVP for a third time.
Four years ago, following the Beijing Olympics, Jackson needed surgery on her right ankle and was out for the season. In 2009, she missed the final six games of the regular season because of a stress fracture in her back.
Last season she played just 13 games after needing surgery to repair a torn labrum in her hip.
Jackson recovered enough to play for Ros Casares in Valencia, Spain, during the offseason and all expectations are that she will rejoin the Storm in the days after the London Olympics.
While Jackson is gone, the Storm hopes Smith and Thompson can continue to produce at the same level they have throughout their extraordinary careers. Smith averaged 7.5 points in a reserve role for Seattle a year ago, while Thompson started 33 games and averaged 9.9 points per game last season for Los Angeles.
Seattle also added size and depth to the backcourt by selecting Stricklen in the WNBA draft. Seattle traded veteran Swin Cash to Chicago for the rights to the pick that the team used on the 6-foot-2 Stricklen, who averaged 15.4 points and 6.6 rebounds playing on the wing for Tennessee last season.
"Every day I know I have to come in and work hard," Stricklen said. "These veterans, they know what they're doing and they're just going to tell you straight up if you're not playing good or doing good. They're straight up with you and that's a good thing."
Seattle plays an extremely heavy road schedule early in the season. Seattle plays 12 road games before the Olympics, then the Storm has five road games after the July 13-Aug. 16 break for the Olympics.
"We look at the first half of this season as probably the most important part of our season" Agler said, "because we are going to not have our full roster and we play a lot of road games, and having success on the road is difficult in this league."

175g KC Pro Aviar The Best!
A stack of ten 175g Kc pro aviar and a pratice basket at least two times a week in the yard.
Likewise,tried many but always come back to my black Aviar.Wizzard,Money putter,Ripdiscgolf's relex,Graboide,Pro Challenger,PD-1.
Do I always score that putt,no or I'd be closer to pro status.
Get yourself a basket,best advice for practice.you're basket will look @ you when you ignore it,so even 5 minutes is better then none.Set yourself up for at least 15 min practice,twice is nice.what's 30 min out of your life,you spend more then that in line somwhere.
