SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - In the second day of the Gaucho Classic, UC Santa Barbara (1-2) fell in their rematch with Texas A&M (4-0) by a score of 8-0. The Aggies talented offense continued to produce at an extraordinary rate, averaging just over 10 runs per game for the young season. The game ended after 6 innings as a result of the mercy rule.
The Gauchos' starting pitcher Shelby Wisdom held Texas A&M to just one base runner through the first 3 innings, retiring the first 8 batters of the game before Brittany Clopton singled with two outs in the third. Wisdom was able to strikeout Emily Albus to end the frame, her fourth and final punch out of the day.
Unfortunately, Wisdom's next 2 innings did not go as smoothly. Cassie Tysarczyk banged a RBI single up the middle in the fourth inning, and April Ryan followed with a two out two run homer in the fifth. Tysarczyk notched her second RBI of the day later in the inning to give the Aggies a 4-0 lead. Wisdom finished with 5 innings pitched, 4 earned runs, and 4 K's.
Four runs were more than enough support for Aggies starter Katie Marks, who went the distance without surrendering a run to earn her second win of the season. Marks gave up just 3 hits on the day in 6 innings of work while striking out 3 and walking 1 for the complete game shutout.
UCSB threatened to put the first run on the scoreboard in the early going, but failed to come up with the clutch hit. In the second, Lauren Boser sacrificed Wisdom to second base, but a strikeout by Kathryn Pilpil and a line out to the first baseman by Emily Brucelas left her stranded. Then, in the third, Kristen Clark cracked a triple to left field with two outs, but Arianna Palomares flew out to left to end the inning.
Alex Pingree came in to pitch in the top of the sixth, but Texas A&M rallied for four more runs to bring the score to 8-0.
While the team as a whole struggled offensively, Clark was able to provide a spark for the Gauchos by going 2-3, including the third inning triple. Clark actually had 3 hits, but her leadoff single in the first was negated because the number she was wearing and that written on the lineup card differed.
UCSB will play their last game of the Gaucho Classic I tomorrow at 1:00pm tomorrow against Cal State Bakersfield.

Rob Harvilla, Jr., wasn't expecting anything in return when he dropped off two turkeys for the CMJ Motors first "Turkey Drop," which was held Sunday. However, he now finds himself the owner of a new ride, just in time for a possible new job.
Thinking of his grandmother, Rob Harvilla Jr., dropped off two large turkeys last week to CMJ Motors for the company's first-ever "Turkey Drop," a contest that asked for turkey donations in return for chances to win a car. But, Harvilla wasn't expecting to win. He wasn't expecting anything other than the feeling that comes from doing something good.
"It's just something she would have done herself but she died about this time last year," Harvilla said.
Since finding out he won, he can't help but think she's looking out for him.
"It's been the worst year with luck since she died," he said. "But, in less than two days, I've won this car and I just got called back for a great job at the new movie theater that I'm excited about. I feel like she's looking out for me."
CMJ Motors owner Christine Jenkins said that Harvilla was actually the first person to donate a turkey when he stopped by last Thursday with two turkeys, each weighing in at more than 10 pounds each.
"It's unbelievable, really," Jenkins said as Harvilla signed the last of the paperwork to take ownership of the car. "Because he was the first person to drop off a turkey, his tickets were all the way at the bottom of the container we used for the drawing. We mixed them up, of course, but it's still just unbelievable."
"I've been driving my grandmother's car," Harvilla explained when asked if he needed to win the car. "It's an old red Sundance. I appreciated being able to use it but I definitely needed the upgrade."

Belton, TX – The University of Mary Hardin-Baylor football team dominated from the opening kickoff and the Cru rolled to a 77-13 victory over Sul Ross State University Saturday afternoon in Belton. UMHB improves to 9-0 overall and 7-0 in American Southwest Conference play with the win. The loss drops the Lobos to 2-7 overall and 1-6 in the ASC on the season.
UMHB jumped out a 21-0 first quarter lead, scoring on three of its first four drives. LiDarral Bailey hit Damian Davis with a 37-yard touchdown pass 2:58 into the game to give the Cru a 7-0 lead. Bailey added a one-yard scoring plunge on the next drive and Darius Wilson darted 61 yards to pay dirt to put UMHB on top 21-0 with 1:17 to play in the first. Wilson added a pair of one-yard scoring runs early in the second quarter to put the lead at 35-0 before the Lobos would get on the scoreboard. Lee Carothers hauled in a 26-yard scoring pass from Scotty Walden to close the gap to 35-6, but Tariekus Ellis answered with a 91-yard touchdown return on the ensuing kickoff. Jacquoi Beauregard added a two-yard touchdown run with 54 seconds left in the first half to give the Cru a 49-6 lead at the break. Jake Sims added a 60-yard scoring run and Caleb Moore had a 68-yard scoring dash early in the third quarter before Walden found Kyle DeMoss with a seven-yard TD pass to make it 63-13. Moore and Beauregard had fourth quarter TD runs to provide the final margin for UMHB.
The Cru rolled up 569 yards of total offense and held the Lobos to just 274 yards of offense despite the UMHB starters taking the second half off. The Cru had 451 rushing yards and held the Lobos to 108 yards on the ground. Sul Ross State was also penalized 16 times for 136 yards.
Wilson finished with 138 yards rushing and three touchdowns on 18 carries. Moore added 110 yards and two scores on nine totes and Sims also topped the 100-yard mark with 105 yards on six carries. Bailey was 3-4 passing for 60 yards and a TD and Davis caught two passes for 52 yards and a score. UMHB used nine different ball carriers, three quarterbacks and six different receivers in the game. Javicz Jones had a team-high eight tackles despite limited playing time in the last three quarters of the game.
Walden was 10-20 passing for Sul Ross for 143 yards and two scores. Carothers caught three passes for 116 yards and a score and Dominique Carson ran for 54 yards on 19 carries for the Lobos. Robert Pyssen topped the Sul Ross defense with 13 total tackles.
UMHB now leads the all-time series with Sul Ross 14-0. The Cru has won 18 straight ASC games and has a 23-game regular season winning streak. UMHB stretched its regular season home winning streak to 26 straight games and the Cru has won 17 straight home games overall, dating back to the 2008 NCAA Division III National Semifinals.
The Cru clinches at least a share of the ASC title and earns the league's automatic bid to the NCAA Division III National Championships with the victory. UMHB can claim the outright ASC title and a second straight undefeated regular season with a win in the regular season finale next weekend. The Cru will close out the regular season with a 1:00 PM kickoff at Texas Lutheran University next Saturday in Seguin.

text: Bentley GT Speed Convertible revealed If you're reading this, then either the Mayan apocalypse has failed to materialise, or it did happen, and you're trapped inside some kind of TopGear purgatory. Welcome.Time then, to meet the new Bentley GT Speed Convertible, revealed here on the Internet ahead of it's proper, touchy-feely worldwide debut at the Detroit motor show. And that headline means it has a top speed of 325kph - the same as the 621bhp Supersports drop-top. It's Bentley's way of saying '325kph is quite fast enough for a convertible thank you very much'.Not that you'd feel short changed in this new GT Speed Convertible mind; it produces 616bhp and a rather enormous 800Nm of torque from that 6.0-litre W12 engine, to help propel its considerable 2,495kg kerbweight from 0-100kph in just 4.1 seconds. 0-160kph takes just 9.7 seconds, a tenth off the GT Speed Coupe's pace.It might be a mighty big hammer, that W12, but it's a clever old one. Bentley tells us its ECU is capable of performing 180 million individual calculations per second. It's all hooked up to an eight-speed auto with a 'Sport' mode, delivering sharper throttle responses and gearshifts, and a 'baritone snarl' from the exhaust. We like snarly exhausts here at TopGear.The revised air suspension on this new GT Speed Convertible sits 10mm lower than the Continental GT drop-top, together with stiffer suspension bushes and uprated anti-roll bars. The stability control has also been tweaked, allowing increased wheel slip at higher speeds.It comes with 21in 'Speed' alloy wheels, a new matrix radiator grille and chrome bumper air intakes, while inside it's all handcrafted luxury; there are treadplates with 'Speed' on them, diamond quilted leather, an 'engine spin' finish reminiscent of the Le Mans winning Bentleys of the '20s, and a huge infotainment system.Prices to be confirmed, but expect to pay a little chunk more than the GT Speed. Like it? There's certainly an air of history about this thing\: the first ever Bentley 'Speed' was a drop-top too, with a top speed of 160kph. Today's Continental GT Speed is therefore twice as fast. Give it another 100 years, and you'll be reading about a 480kph Bentley Speed. If the apocalypse hasn't happened, of course... Vijay Pattni 02 January 2013 Bentley GT Speed Convertible revealed

Test was 'underhand' - Horner
- News:
Test row is with Mercedes, not Pirelli - Horner
- News:
FIA conditions of Mercedes test may not have been met
- News:
Mercedes test row passed on to FIA
Christian Horner says he believes Mercedes carried out its Pirelli tyre test "in an underhand way" and hasn't complied with the Sporting Regulations.
Red Bull and Ferrari protested against Mercedes' test with Pirelli before the Monaco Grand Prix, with Mercedes then going on to win the race. Horner said the timing of the protest showed just how strongly Red Bull felt about what had occurred and that in his view the rules regarding testing are "very clear" and have been ignored.
"What's wrong is that a team, in an underhand way, consciously tested tyres that were designed for this year's championship," Horner said. "We view that the testing rules are very clear in the Sporting Regulations and when you enter the championship at the start of the year you sign up to those regulations.
"In our opinion, in doing that test, Mercedes hasn't complied and therefore we protested before the race because we wanted it to be clear that it wasn't a question of what result they have and that at the first opportunity we had to put in a protest; we put it in because we want clarity."
With the matter referred to the FIA, Horner emphasised that one the contracts he believes Mercedes to have broken is solely between the teams and will also now need revisiting.
"We talk an awful lot about saving costs and we spent three hours on Friday talking about in-season testing and trying to find a solution and it turns out one team has already done a huge amount of it. There also is a testing agreement, that may as well be declared null and void now, which is a contract between the teams that isn't governed by the FIA and that obviously hasn't been respected either."

This talk focuses on an application of a WKB technique that is a generalization of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation to the Schwinger model of angular momentum. This work makes it possible to express the asymptotic limits of higher 3nj symbols in terms of the asymptotic limits of lower 3nj symbols, when only a subset of quantum numbers are taken to be large. After an introduction of the the technique, we show that the 15j symbol has different asymptotic limits in terms of a combination of several Ponzano Regge actions when different subsets of quantum numbers are taken large.

Madeleine Pierard brings life to Schoenberg's twilight world.
A rare visit from Wellington contemporary music ensemble Stroma was especially welcome when the Sunday-night concert featured soprano Madeleine Pierard as the moonstruck chanteuse of Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire.
It was an intriguing programme and began with tributes to two of Schoenberg's pupils. Hanns Eisler is best known for the ardently left-wing songs he wrote with Brecht, but his 1942 Fourteen Ways of Describing Rain is purely instrumental.
On Sunday, it was presented as an accompaniment to the film that inspired it, Joris Ivens' 1929 Rain.
Conductor Hamish McKeich was determined to underline the craft and expressiveness of Eisler's writing. The five wind and string players gave a strong, confident reading, anchored by Sarah Watkins' piano, with its captivating catalogue of watery motifs.
McKeich also conducted Megan Molina, Andrew Thomson and Robert Ibell in Webern's 1927 String Trio. With a conductor, the piece lost some of the intimacy and organic cohesion that happens when the three musicians are dealing directly with one another.
It was difficult to believe that Madeleine Pierard, totally transformed in clown make-up and white dress, was recently a vivacious Fiordiligi in a production of Cosi fan Tutte.
Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire lays out a mysterious twilight world, halfway between speech and song, and Pierard inhabited it with full citizen rights.
She relished the cabaret of nightmares and paranoia that Albert Giraud's poems spill out, using her mezzo past to darken images of sinister moths, decapitations and enough blood to keep a Mario Bava film awash.
Yet, remembering that the composer intended the work to have a light, ironical satirical tone, Pierard also realised this in songs like the poignant portrait of a washerwoman and the ensuing Valse de Chopin.
It was in such pieces that the instrumentalists, never less than excellent, went even beyond that, their crystalline textures suggesting that this is a work informed as much by the spirit of Impressionism as Expressionism.

February 1, 2013, MichiganVotes.org Weekly Roll Call
Y = Yes, N = No, X = Not Voting
Senate Bill 61, Convert Blue Cross to non-profit "regular" insurance company: Passed 36 to 0 in the Senate
To convert Blue Cross Blue Shield into a "mutual insurance company" and make it subject to the same regulations as regular health insurers. Although it would remain a non-profit, current restrictions on the entity's ability to own for-profit subsidiaries would be reduced, and it would no longer be subject to close oversight by the state Attorney General. In return for being granted this conversion, BCBS would pay "up to" $1.56 billion over 18 years (meaning it could be less) into a fund that would supplement various health-related government programs, with specific spending items selected by a board of political appointees. The bill does not include abortion restrictions that caused Gov. Snyder to veto the same measure when passed late last year.
Who Voted "Yes" and Who Voted "No"
Newly Introduced Transportation Funding Bills of Interest
In his annual State of the State address, Gov. Rick Snyder called on the Legislature to explore ways to find an additional $1.2 billion annually to spend on road repairs. This week the Senate responded with a package of tax hike bills.
Senate Joint Resolution J: Replace gas tax with higher sales tax
Introduced by Sen. Randy Richardville (R), to place before voters in the next general election a Constitutional amendment to impose a 2 percent sales tax increase, with at least 90 percent of the new revenue going to road projects, and most of the rest to municipal bus system subsidies. This would replace the state gas and diesel tax (see Senate Bill 85). At the proposed new 8 percent rate, Michigan would have the nation's highest state sales tax (although higher rates are imposed in some local jurisdictions). Reportedly the measure is offered as a "Plan B" alternative to the large fuel and/or vehicle registration tax increases proposed by Senate Bills 87 and 88. Referred to committee.
Senate Bill 87: Replace current fuel taxes with higher wholesale tax
Introduced by Sen. Roger Kahn (R), to replace the current 19 cent per gallon gas tax and 15 cent diesel tax with a new tax based on the wholesale price of fuel, initially levied at a rate of 37 cents per gallon. This would also become the minimum gas tax rate even if wholesale prices fell. If wholesale prices rose the maximum tax would be 50 cents per gallon, but the rate could not rise more than a penny a year.
When added to current federal fuel taxes and the 6 percent state sales tax also imposed on fuel (revenue from which does not go to roads), this would give Michigan the nation's highest total gasoline tax levy at nearly 74 cents per gallon, assuming current wholesale and after-tax pump price levels of around $2.74 and $3.50, respectively. (New York is currently number 1 at 67.4 cents per gallon.) See also Senate Joint Resolution J, a "Plan B" alternative that would instead hike the state sales tax to 8 percent and use the extra revenue to replace current fuel taxes. Referred to committee.
Senate Bill 88: Increase vehicle registration taxes by 80 percent
Introduced by Sen. Roger Kahn (R), to increase the annual vehicle registration (license plate) tax by approximately 80 percent, with comparable increases for trucks and trailers. As an example, the annual tax on a car with a $20,000 list price would increase from $98 to $176, and under Senate Bill 86, remain at this level until the vehicle is 10 years old (when it would drop to 50 percent). See also Senate Bills 84 to 87 and Senate Joint Resolution J. Referred to committee.
Senate Bill 86: Revise, increase vehicle registration taxes
Introduced by Sen. John Pappageorge (R), to revise various vehicle registration tax details. Among other things, the bill would change the basis on which the car and pickup tax is assessed. Instead of the basis gradually dropping to 72.9 percent of the list price and staying there from the fourth year on, the basis would become 100 percent of the value when new until the car is 10 years old, when it would drop to 50 percent, a change that would extract approximately $64 million more annually from owners. The bill would also end the current one-time $75 trailer registration tax, returning to an annual tax on trailers; those who had already paid the one-time tax would be "grandfathered." Referred to committee.

Director's Corner
27 March 2008
The next step towards the ILC — building a truly global teamToday's issue features a Director's Corner from Marc Ross, Project Manager for the Global Design Effort.
It has been roughly a year since the completion of the Reference Design Report (RDR) and the creation of a project-oriented design effort. It is reasonable, therefore, to look broadly over our accomplishments and the direction in which we are heading.
The Reference Design is the baseline, adopted through consensus, which is the cornerstone of our activities. We now must establish both the feasibility and credibility of that design through tests, further design and review. Developing consensus and subsequently soliciting and realising support for specific tests can be a difficult task, but it is fundamental to the Technical Design Phase (TDP) process. Work on main linac technology is our most valuable R&D effort, and as we look back on the past year we can count the reduction of field emission in nine-cell cavity tests, development of the 'plug-compatible cryomodule' design concept and successful tests of the power generation and distribution system among our achievements. In addition, we expect to complete commissioning and begin full utilisation of new superconducting radio frequency (SCRF) cavity processing and testing infrastructure in the US and Japan. Our other big investment, preparation for beam tests, also progressed substantially this year with the development of the CESR Damping Ring Test Accelerator (CesrTA) at Cornell for damping ring beam dynamics studies and the construction of the ATF2 facility at KEK for studies of the beam delivery system and the machine-detector interface. Both facilities will see 'first beam' in 2008.
|At the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Mumbai, with Prof. A. Gurtu and Prof. R.G. Pillay.
|T.S. Datta giving a tour of the superconducting linac at the Inter-University Accelerator Centre (IUAC) in New Delhi.
Of the items listed above, I would like to elaborate on the 'plug-compatible cryomodule' design concept, the central topic of Akira Yamamoto's corner on 28 February. Our work is based on contributions of 'in-kind R&D', where institutes or individuals provide their results to the ILC and in return, among other things, their own knowledge is increased and their infrastructure improved. It is critically important to provide a flexible framework within which we can develop the technology and achieve TDP goals. The 'plug-compatible' concept makes both available through the careful definition of interface specifications. Given well defined interfaces, again developed through consensus, we can actively solicit new ideas and develop new team members.
The Global Design Effort (GDE) derives its greatest strength as a 'global equipartition' model of scientific collaboration. It is quite important to make the most of that until the project matures to the point where a central team is chosen and / or a site is selected (see this previous Director's Corner). The 'global equipartition' model not only gave us strength to withstand recent ups and downs - and face the ones to come,- it also attracts newcomers and can cement relationships within the existing team. With that in mind, Akira Yamamoto and I travelled to four Indian accelerator laboratories two weeks ago, ably escorted by a frequent visitor to India, Shin-ichi Kurokawa of KEK, to talk about ILC R&D and to invite their participation as 'equi-partners' in the multi-lateral GDE organisation. Judging by their enthusiastic response, and by the very impressive growth now underway at these labs, we expect to return soon and to expand such visits to include similar institutions.
I mentioned earlier that establishing credibility through further design and review is a 'must' for the TDP. In the last two months, we gave this process a starting push through the creation of a 'cost-reduction working group' and the formulation of a strong, well connected internal review panel, termed the 'Accelerator Advisory Panel' (AAP). With the former, we will carry on and escalate the process of refining the Reference Design, motivated by the need to contain - and hopefully to reduce - the cost and strengthen the design. The AAP and the related review panel - the 'Project Advisory Committee' - will help guide us through the process.
We will, both for financial reasons and to allow greater focus, from now on reduce the number of general GDE meetings from three to two per year. We expect one of these to be 'thematic' while the other retains a comprehensive approach. Our two upcoming 2008 meetings - one with a 'siting & staging / strategy' theme at Dubna in June and the other, with an all-encompassing agenda, at Chicago in November (LCWS08) - are the first examples. At the 2008 meetings, we expect to develop a strategy that captures the essentials listed above, namely demonstrating the feasibility of choices made for the RDR, providing a framework for growth in the community and tackling the challenge of making the ILC project practical and preparing us to initiate the proposal submission process.

8 Kid Friendly Technology DIY Projects
While we are unsure what the right age is to introduce tech to a child, we've lately had a couple of primary school aged children in our lives express an interest in breaking out a soldering iron. While projects involving soldering irons are not something this age group should be doing unsupervised, we are more than happy to work on some basic electronics projects with them. It is with these young friends in mind, that we have rounded up 8 great DIY projects to create with the youngster in your life.
- Bird-Electron EZ17-B iPod Recycling Speaker: This DIY kit requires zero soldering and comes together to make a portable boombox.
- MintyBoost: With kits available for this battery powered USB charger, only light soldering is required to assemble.
- Sparkleball: Although these are usually spotted around the holidays, we think they would be fun to make year round. After all, what kid does not want a UFO-like lighting solution?
- Scrub Bot: This nifty little robot is made from old computer fans, so not only will the youngsters learn some basic electronics, but also the value of upcycling!
- Altoids Tin Mini Speakers: Another DIY project involving Altoids tins, this one uses playing cards and old computer speakers to make super portable mini speakers perfect for an iPod.
- T3 Solar Powered Robot: Although this is not a "start from scratch" DIY, it does require assembly and allows kids to remake in different ways (think ultra flexible Transformer) a very cool solar powered robot.
- Inchworm: Use a ruler and comb to create this fun little robot that is difficult for anyone to resist playing with.
- Magnetize a Screwdriver: While this project does not yield a cool robot, it is an easy way to teach kids about magnetism.
What's a great DIY project you've done with a kid?

Most voice actors reprise their roles for SuperBot's upcoming PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, and they all have a lot of sayings to show off their character. Well, Sweet Tooth tends to have a lot of laughing, but the point was made.
jak and new dantes voices really irritate me especially jak because i like that character, did they change the voice actor because it sounds completly different than he did in the trilogy and X
now raiden on the other hand sounds like a total badass
I laughed at Sir Dan's sequence and his constant mumbling r. I can just picture the other All Stars just standing there looking at Sir Dan and trying to make sense of his mumbling .BTW if for some reason they don't reveal any new characters TGS I hope that their are still more characters to be revealed.
Fat Princess....is that Tara Strong? Sounds like her. Nariko sounded so epic, I really gotta buy that game when i can.
disappointed with Dante's lines, until he said, "Lets turn some heads..................(long pause)....................... the wrong way". haha that pause got me.

Pittsburgh Heart Ball - 2/20/10
Residents of Pittsburgh dressed up, donated, and got to the heart of the matter to raise awareness and funds for the American Heart Association at the 2010 Pittsburgh Heart Ball. The Heart of Rock 'n' Roll themed event brought in a gross amount of nearly $1.2 million to fund cardiovascular disease research, professional and public education, school site programs, and advocacy efforts. A silent auction was held for guests to bid on various items, such as hand-painted pottery made by children affected by heart disease, Pittsburgh Steelers season tickets, and a trip to Costa Rica. Of the nearly $1.2 million earned, $50,000 came from the silent auction. During the evening, Dr. Sudhakar Pesara Reddy was honored with the Peter J. Safer Pulse Award and Lauren Saul received the Mary Ann Scully Excellence Award. The 975 black-tie clad attendees enjoyed dinner, cocktails, and live music by No Bad JuJu, with special guest Joe Grushecky and performances by Point Park University's Conservatory of Performing Arts.

Propellerhead Software Announces Reason Pianos ReFill
Propellerhead Software today announced Reason Pianos ReFill. Reason Pianos is the perfect pop and rock music piano package: three highly realistic, infinitely shapeable pianos that exploit Reason 3.0's Combinator device. Because there is no one way to record a piano, Reason Pianos were recorded from multiple angles, using six different sets of microphones.
The Pianos
Reason Pianos features a Steinway D grand piano, a Yamaha C7 grand piano and a Steinway K upright piano, each selected for its distinctive pop music feel. The Steinway grand is considered to be the world's finest grand piano, the Yamaha C7 is a classic rock and jazz piano with a distinctive sound, and the Steinway upright is a well balanced upright known for its deep tone. The hand-selected instruments were tuned and adjusted to perfection.
The Pianos in the Mix
The Piano with its wide tonal range and broad frequency spectrum is a notoriously tricky instrument to handle in a mix. Not any more. Each of the four stereo pairs and two separate mono microphones used to record the pianos show up as individual channels in Reason's mixer, enabling the user to tailor the piano sound to suit the other elements in a song. For example, the mono ribbon mic signal alone might be perfect for a busy track, or the floor microphones can be brought up a notch to boost the bass. Additionally there are EQ, compression and other effects for the individual mics as well as front-panel controls for hammer noise, presence and release.
About Hypersampling
The three pianos reproduced in the Reason Pianos ReFill were recorded in large, hardwood floored recording rooms, the perfect environment for pop piano recordings. To capture every aspect of the pianos' sounds - from resonance in the room to their unique timbres - each was recorded at multiple velocity levels from multiple angles using six different sets of microphones. A quality blend of vintage and modern day technology was used throughout the recording process, for a warm yet crystal clear sound.
Philosophy Behind the Library
The Reason Pianos ReFill does not seek to deliver a set of clinically perfect, scientifically reproduced concert pianos. Rather, these are pianos to play, highly responsive instruments that simply sound good - without filling up hard drives, chewing up RAM, or depleting CPU resources. The pianos are set up ready to go for production with 42 preset patches. In addition, 29 "style" patches are included for tweaky, layered, processed pianos that mimic many classic sounds.
What Artists Say
"Lovin' it. Now I can save on renting piano rooms for $2000 a day!" says Printz Board - musical director and keyboard player for Black Eyed Peas.
"Reason Pianos has incredible feel and control," says Richard Devine - remixer, sound designer, engineer, commercial composer and performer of his own ear-tearing music mayhem worldwide. "This excellent virtual piano works so well in various situations. Reason Pianos' rich tonality and realistic key response has made this library one of my new favorites."
"I think I've listened to every sampled piano on the planet, and these are about the best out there," says Jeff Rona - composer, sound artist, and performer, whose scores include White Squall, The Legend of EarthSea, Slow Burn, The Quiet and Chicago Hope. "Reason is taking a huge leap further into professional record and soundtrack production with these amazingly expressive and terrifically recorded pianos."
Pricing and Availability
The Reason Pianos ReFill will be available at Propellerheads' Dealers on August 15, 2006 worldwide.

Astros try to make it two in a row in Seattle
The Houston Astros try to make it two straight wins on Wednesday when they play the rubber match of their three-game series against the Seattle Mariners at Safeco Field.
Houston's bats woke up in a big way on Tuesday, as Chris Carter hit two home runs and Jose Altuve went 4-for-6 with a homer and four RBI to help guide the Astros to a 16-9 win. J.D. Martinez and Marwin Gonzalez also hit home runs for Houston, which snapped a six-game skid.
"It was only a matter of time," Houston manager Bo Porter said. "We've had confidence the whole time they could hit. It was unfortunate the games prior to (Tuesday) that we had not hit, but it was good to see."
Erik Bedard struck out three in four shutout innings for the Astros while allowing just one hit. Paul Clemens (1-0) picked up his first career win in his MLB debut despite allowing five earned runs and three long balls in four innings of work.
The Astros, which had managed just 17 runs through their first seven games, knocked Seattle starter Brandon Maurer out of the game after just two-thirds of an inning pitched. Maurer surrendered six earned runs and seven hits before giving way to the bullpen.
"These are days you just forget," said Seattle manager Eric Wedge. "You take whatever good you can out of it, some good things happened for us offensively at the end of the game, but from a pitching perspective, we just had a very off day, everybody was scuffling today. It was just a bad day."
Jason Bay and Raul Ibanez each belted pinch-hit home runs for the Mariners, who have lost five of seven.
Hoping for a better effort in Wednesday's finale, Seattle will hand the ball to righty Blake Beavan, who pitched poorly his first time out against Chicago. Beavan did not get a decision against the White Sox, but was hammered for five runs and six hits in five innings.
"I just wasn't executing pitches with my offspeed, and my fastball obviously should have been a better weapon for me to use, but I didn't utilize it enough when I needed it," said Beavan. "I just need to learn from it. The main thing is we got a win. We kept it right there and these guys stepped up and got a couple runs late in the game for us."
Houston, meanwhile, will counter with righty Brad Peacock, who lost his major league debut on Friday against Oakland. Peacock couldn't get out of the fifth inning in that one and surrendered two runs and three hits with three walks in 4 1/3 innings.
"I was a little too amped up the first two innings, but I calmed down and feel like I did OK," Peacock said. "By the end of it, I felt great, and was keeping the ball down. I've just got to get in better counts. I'm going to work on it in my next bullpen and I should be fine."
This is Houston's first visit to Seattle since 2004.

Center for American Architecture & Design
The Center for American Architecture and Design seeks to provide scholars, practitioners, students, and the public with opportunities to examine contemporary and historical issues in architecture and design, to collect and disperse resources on architecture to scholars and researchers, and to increase public awareness and appreciation of architecture, the most public art form.
Founded in 1982 with a focus on regional architecture, the Center's scope now includes the investigation of fundamental issues that are integral to our understanding of architecture. The impact of architecture and design transcends political boundaries, and the complexity of economic realities and social conditions are facts that produce interrelatedness and interdependence. By establishing the Center as the locus of discussion, we hope to bring together scholars, the design profession, and the public.
In addition to providing a forum for discussion, the Center strives to coalesce support for scholars who conduct research and articulate the nature of architectural and related design disciplines in the Americas for the benefit of others. By stimulating a sense of what has been, is now, and should be for the future, the Center hopes to influence the quality of landscape, urban spaces, and design.
The Center stages
national symposia, publishes the CENTER. Centerline. and the O'Neil Ford Monograph and Duograph book series. and supports independent research and scholarship in architecture and design. The Center also sponsors exhibitions, books, seminars, bi-weekly forums during the fall and spring semesters, and lectures to raise public awareness of the possibilities for economic growth and enhanced human welfare posed by higher design standards.
The goals of the Center for American Architecture and Design are wide and are designed to ensure that important subjects receive the attention of scholars, theoreticians, and practitioners, while providing the public with opportunities to discover and share the findings that the Center's efforts produce. Projects of the Center are supported by grants and gifts from foundations, individuals, and businesses. The Center has garnered financial support from such major institutions as the Graham Foundation for the Advancement of the Arts, the Annenberg Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
The Center is located in Battle Hall Room 105 on the campus of The University of Texas at Austin. Michael Benedikt is the Director, Kevin Alter is the Associate Director, Leora Visotzky serves as Managing Editor and Program Coordinator, and Evan Greulich serves as Assistant Editor.

Larry Stefanki had balls a few years ago when he once again split from coaching Fernando Gonzales. Roddick caught wind he was not working with gonzo, so he gets in touch with Stefanki and asks him to be part of his camp, and be his coach. After being on the tour coaching players for over 5 years and knowing Larry Stefanki, I would say this call was one of the classics. He tells Roddick he is not interested in coaching him unless he losses 20 lbs. What is even funnier than that is within 2 months Roddick calls him back and says, "Ok I dropped the 20lbs". Stefanki then Roddick was serious, and committed to working on his game, so off he went to coach Roddick. Once again Stefanki performs his magic with Roddick making the round of 16 at the French and the finals of Wimbledon, I just wonder how long it will take before he realizes that Roddick is just another punk. And please do not respond to this post, negatively unless you have first hand, up close experience coaching world class players. I have tried my best to support Roddick for a number of years, and all I can say is: He is nothing more than a winer, and a punk. On the flip side of the coin, Stefanki has always been a class act, in the spotlight, behind the scenes and so on. I will be amazed if the 2011 year ends and Stefanki is still coaching Roddick, because I know he is mortified every time Roddick makes an ass of himself. Actually I take that back, because Stefanki is such a class act and has such a religious work ethic,he will do every thing he can to make a difference with his player, but I hope he finishes like he started - straps on a pair of balls and realizes that Andy Roddick, will always be a punk.

Well tell us how you really feel. ;-)
It seems like Stefanki and Roddick will break up just based on the fact they seem to have plateaued as a team. I think everything would have been different for Andy if he could have won a couple more points off Fed in that W final.
ike thanks for your comment. I do believe Roddick can appear to be genuine at times, but there is a fine line between honest/tacky. Here is an example: Bill moves into your neighborhood, Bill drives a red honda civic, you drive a blue honda civic. You meet bill and bill immediately tells you why he does not like the blue honda civics. The third neighbor next to Bill hears the conversation and says: Since we all play on the same 3.5 tennis team we should have bill captain the team, he will be great because he calls it like he sees it - He really says what is on his mind. Remember Mike perception is life is just about everything. Do you like my car, do you like my jeans....?
Well to be honest that really does not concern me,(please dont be offended) so being honest and saying what you think is not always the classiest way a person should respond. If everybody in the world said what they thought my friend, you would be pissing people off every 5 minutes. You want to talk about class, listen to any interview and I mean pick any, of nadal or federrer. I cannot remember the last time I seen one of those two guys lose a match - and dont kid yourself they do lose, and moan/wine/complain/ rattle off the F-bomb ever in during or after a match. All you will ever hear those two players say is a classy and tactful comment, and that my friend in my opinion should be the appropriate response.
Hey Mark,
Thanks for your comments. I do agree with your feedback, but not sure if I want to go on record today (May 12, 2011), saying that Federer is done. He does have a couple additional hurdles to clear since dropping to No. 3. I believe the grand slams seed the traditional 1-3 / 2-4 format, but not every tournament does, and with my fellow Serbian having his number as of late, he will now have a more difficult time just getting to Nadal. Furthermore if that is the case, that means he will have one less focused match each tournament, that is, if these 3 amigos are all in the draw, which could prove to be good with the additional rest or bad with the changed schedule and fewer sets.
Nevertheless, it will be interesting to watch how he handles his new position in the ATP Ranking, and thanks again Mark for your comments.
Hey Mark T. do you still play yourself?
Competitively at what level?
How much do you bench...? lol
ditto MD. I like Roddick, he says it how it is.

The Back Bay loop, a 10.5-mile nearly car-free bike route around Upper Newport Bay filled with birds, scenic vistas, a museum, exhibits, side paths, headwinds and a few quick, steep climbs, is a worthy notch in the belt of a beginner cyclist and a good training ride for a veteran. It's also the perfect route for the comfortable flat-bar road bike known in the cycling world as the "fitness" bike, or as some local shops refer to it, the "Back Bay" bike.
Designed to handle long recreational or commuter rides without leaving body parts aching, the bike keeps a road bike's fast 700C wheels and gearing but replaces the drop bars and aggressive hunched-over position with a mountain bike's straight, higher handlebar and relaxed, upright body positioning.
With aluminum frames, ergonomic platform hand grips that stop finger numbness, quick-release wheels for easy transport and repairs, and a variety of suspension and comfort features, the models below work for everyone from ambitious rookies aiming for double-digit Back Bay miles and longer charity rides to aging roadies who still have the need for speed but now want some back- and sightseeing-friendly comfort too.
Pushing the envelope
Specialized BG Roulux 2: The brainchild of ergonomics guru Roger Minkow, inventor of the much-copied anti-impotence seat, this radical fusion of performance and comfort features unique handlebars, mirrors and a suspension frame designed for all-day riding.
Likes: Fast, fun and remarkably comfy. The tall stem, S-shaped swept-back bars (see photo) and ergo-grips put your back at a semi-erect 70- or 75-degree angle (45 degrees or less is typical on road bikes) and your hands at a turned-out angle that does not hyperextend the wrists. The result is good power, no numb hands and surprisingly good leverage for out-of-the-saddle climbing. Has shock absorbers under the head tube (35mm) and the seat post/seat stay juncture (15 millimeters). Ingenious, pivoting 4-by-1-inch rear-view mirrors on the down tube, barely visible, let you look behind instantly without turning your head. Aero rims, 25mm tires and 20-speed Shimano 105 group with trigger shifters completes a good performance package. Weighs 23.4 pounds (in medium size).
Dislikes: No seat-stay rack mounts, limiting the bike's usefulness as a commuter. The slight bobbing of the suspension means wasted energy as well as comfort, a tradeoff some serious riders may not want. No granny gear in the top-end Roulux 2 (not the 1) may bother those who like it for steep climbs.
Price: $1,800 (Roulux 1, with lower-end components, is $1,350). (408) 779-6229; specialized.com.
Penny-wise plushness
Schwinn GS Voyageur: Emphasizing comfort over speed, this suspension-equipped entry-level bike can handle rides of 20-plus miles.
Likes: Comfort is king, but the GS is so sporty, solid and fun that it feels more expensive. Tall handlebars and a big, cushy spring saddle sit you straight up (90 degrees), with a bird's-eye view of the scenery. A suspension fork (11/2 inch of travel) and seatpost (1/2-inch) smooth rough roads; minor bobbing should not be an issue for buyers at this level. The 21-speed triple-chain-ring drivetrain with twist shifters is fine for flatland speed and steep-hill chugs. Includes rack mounts. Good looks give it an edge over similar models from Giant, Diamondback and other brands, especially the GS women's model, with its sleek step-through frame.
Dislikes: Too heavy (31.3 pounds) and upright for long-haul, hard-core riders.
Price: $389. (800) SCHWINN; schwinnbikes.com
Economical epitome of the breed
Cannondale Quick 4: Midrange model of a full line of versatile fitness road bikes, the 4 has a vibration-eating carbon-fiber fork and can be used for fast workouts, long rides, commuting and touring.
Likes: All-day comfort and a sporty design that screams "Go!" The relaxed geometry puts you in a semi-forward body position (less than a traditional road, but more than the Specialized) that is comfy yet efficient for serious pedaling. The fork soaks up lots of road vibration. Basic wheel set and econo 24-speed twist-shifter drivetrain is a good value for the price. Rear rack mounts. Weighs 25 pounds.
Dislikes: None.
Price: $599. (800) BIKE-USA; Cannondale.com
Techy trekky
Trek 7.5 FX: Midrange of a fitness bike line, similar to the Quick 4, with carbon fork, higher-end components, light weight, and standout comfort and convenience features
Likes: Fast, fun, relaxing, do-it-all riding position (like the Quick). Includes Flex Form saddle, which adds comfort by flexing inward to make more room for each leg as it goes through the pedal stroke. The stylish carbon fork seamlessly flows into the head tube and includes a hidden "Speedtrap" compartment for an integrated computer sensor ($35 extra), which eliminates the need to zip-tie an unsightly bike computer wire to the fork leg; the sensor is compatible with most computers and ANT+/Bluetooth frequency devices, including Garmin and Powertap. Includes 27-speed drivetrain, rack mounts and a bell. Weighs 231/4 pounds.
Dislikes: None
Price: $899. (800) 313-8735; Trekbikes.com

Sprint now offers small-business customers a way to pool their mobile data usage and trim costs.
Introduced on Friday and available only until June 13, the new plans are geared for businesses with up to 30 mobile devices. The plans cover smartphones, tablets, mobile hot spots, and USB dongles and require the standard two-year contract.
The smartphone plan allocates 20GB of shared data across 10 devices, 40GB across 20 devices, or 60GB across 30 devices. The more data and devices, the higher the cost -- ranging from $139.99 through $349.99 per month. The first device must be a smartphone, with an extra charge tacked on for tablets, hot spots, and USB dongles. It's an additional $30 or $40 for unlimited talk and text.
The tablet plan covers anywhere from five to 30 devices, with the first device being a tablet. Prices range from $59.99 to $319.99 depending on the amount of data and number of devices.
The plans are available only through Sprint Business Direct, Care, or Telesales.
Sprint has been known for touting its unlimited data plans, and it will still keep its other business plans alive, including Business Advantage and Everything Business. But the new shared data plans mark a change for the company.
Sprint is the third major carrier to kick off a shared data plan for small businesses. Verizon introduced its version in January, while T-Mobile has had one in play since August, according to FierceWireless.
It wasn't long ago that Sprint was ridiculing the shared data plans of its rival carriers. In an ad campaign dubbed "Say No To Sharing" and "Say Yes To Sprint," the company created a commercial showing a family arguing over shared data expenses.
Caralene Robinson, a Sprint marketing vice president, said at the time that "the concept of sharing a monthly data allowance across a family or group of users increases the likelihood for a surprise monthly bill due to data overage charges."
Has the carrier changed its tune?
A Sprint spokesperson told CNET that the company offers online tools to business customers so they can view and manage their data usage.
"In addition, we only charge $0.015/MB in overage ($15/GB)," the spokesperson said. "And, unlike Verizon and AT&T who charge for the whole GB, Sprint only charges the business customer for what they use."
Updated 10:20 a.m. PT with comment from Sprint. Clarification, 10:45 a.m. PT: The headline has been changed to make clear that Sprint has introduced the plans for small businesses.

OT: Jabari Parker nears decision
Chicago Simeon's Jabari Parker, the No. 2 senior in the country, will announce his collegiate plans on Dec. 20, according to multiple reports.
Parker's final list of schools consists of BYU, Duke, Florida, Michigan State and Stanford.
Parker's father, Sonny Parker, told USA Today he isn't sure which way his son is leaning, but he's guessing it's between Duke and Michigan State.
As a junior, Parker was named the ESPNChicago.com Player of the Year, Illinois' Mr. Basketball and the national Gatorade Player of the Year. He averaged 19.5 points, 8.9 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 3.3 blocks and 1.4 steals per game.

DOOM 3 BFG Edition is the ultimate collection of groundbreaking games that defined the first person shooter. It includes DOOM, DOOM 2, DOOM 3, and DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil, as well as the 'Lost Mission.' All DOOM 3 content has been re-mastered for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in stunning 3D for an even more terrifying FPS experience.
Reader Comments
Oh Fuck YES! Day one buy.
This actually looks really badass! Great music and killer, scary vibe!
Are you considering a PS Vita version? This would be epic
And for PC 🙂
Grats on not going for "Doom 3D" :l
That was unexpected. Would definitely buy.
remember when "but can it run crysis" was "but can it run doom 3?"
I wonder if crysis will look like this does right now 10 years later…
Holy crap! I must get it!!! Loved it on the PC 😀 Gonna get it for PS3 or Xbox360 ^^
Love you ID!
Doom 3 is awful… repetitive, boring, gosh! you need a low taste for game buying this, only Doom and Doom 2 have some "classic included" on this waste of time.
id software, hope you find your way with Doom 4, you really need remember your way!
Whatever man, I loved them all! Must have terrible taste then!
You are exactly the attitude that provides "$$$" for this type of developer aimlessly, and still paying for fast food as real food.
id software is playing a unfair game, is all fault of the pc, or some console, the consumer hability, and recicle the recicled.
i cant provide support for those kind of people.
Translation: STOP LIKING THINGS I DON'T LIKE!!
Seriously, stop crying. Yeah, people will buy this, which will give the company money to work on Doom 4. What a concept!
I enjoyed Doom 3, come at me bro.
buy your copy fast Ronald! you rock!
So enjoying Doom 3 means eating at McDonalds. Glad we got that cleared up.
To be clear, I didn't think much of Doom 3 either, but attacking someone who DOES like it makes you a jerk.
Wow, caio what an IDIOT you are. =/ …
Go troll elsewhere.
Doom 3 ROCKS and BFG edition will be THE game I will be highly anticipating until the release of Wii U.
Thank you id Software. Thank you for quenching my thirst for DOOM. <3
Also, did it ever occur to you that this might be the genesis of a longer marketing strategy intended to reintroduce Doom to new audiences to prime them for an eventual announcement of the long awaited Doom 4?
My post now makes no sense as it was a P.S. to another post which was moderated out of existence despite it not being remotely offensive or out of bounds.
I love drama in the comments gives me something to read, thank you XD. oh and I'm definitely buying this loved doom 3 and I cant wait for it on PS3 with the classics too
So Doom and Doom 2 will not be re-mastered? I misread this then… bummer! Doom 1 and 2 are already available on XBOX Live. I guess I will wait to hear more. Maybe a cool collector edition with Doom 4 playable levels.
its says Doom 3 BFG Edition? but it says it includes DOOM 1 and 2? Im confused is it going to include the others or not?
does this also include the expansions for doom 1?
not that i dont have it already for steam and xbox arcade =p
So hang on, is this coming to the PC or not?
Because the first part of the video only mentions 360 and PS3 while the end shows a PC game box.
Not likely to come out on PC. John Carmack HATES PC users.
He HATES the very platform that made him what he is today.
When asked why the studio opted to design the game for consoles rather than the PC, Carmack provided with a response he knows will make PC gamers unhappy.
"We do not see the PC as the leading platform for games," said John Carmack
There is a PC game box at the end I'm assuming it will release but maybe only digital just because by now every PC user probably has this game.
I'm still buying it loved all the DooM games
We also do not see the id software as an option.
We also can't see the id software as an option.
It's extremely unlikely that PC will get this version, it is listed on all official sites as remastered for XBOX 360 and PS3. ID did not feel that it was worth it to re-bake their mega-textures for Rage; to fix the blurry textures on the PC. Instead the patch they offered did a sharpening effect, which did not help much.
But at least you can do this…
Which will probably look better than the BFG edition. Maybe they'll feel charitable and release the level pack at least maybe DLC.. But I doubt they'd do the most reasonable thing and just make the added content a free update.
Not that I'm not a big fan of the Doom series but how many times are you going repackage this ancient IP as opposed to creating new content???
id software is Like george Lucas… same shit, just change the pack.
They created RAGE, which is a new IP.
So this time theres duct tape on mars right?
Do we still need to separately carry our flashlight? lol
No this remake version will have amour mounted flashlight so you can use your flashlight and weapons at the same time.
OMG! OMG!! OMG!!! I can't wait, but how much does it cost? is ot 60 dollars… worth it!
Man this is sad… are you celebrating this old recycled stuff?
I hope it costs 60$ even, just for you.
old recycled stuff is awesome for those who didn't have the original…besides all three in one is very convenient
Please please please please include LAN or a working online option for the classic games. The xbox 360 versions online were absolute unplayable lagfests and split screen just doesnt cut it. Did I mention please?
P-l-e-a-s-e, bring this to Linux and Desura (gaming distribution system, like Steam). Lots of Linux gamers will buy this for sure!
Even if it's download-only, please! Linux gamers deserve this as well!
Thanks 🙂
HUh Doom 3, Doom 2 and Doom all run just fine on Linux.
I have Doom and Doom 2 running now. I had Doom 3 running but it's meh and I threw it away..
HELL YEAH! Finally some DOOM love for PS3! You have my money already.
Carmack may not believe PC to be the leading platform right now, but that's where Doom started. It would only be fair to release this collection for that platform. It's originally coded for the PC! How much more difficult would it be?! I think it would be supported on a wider scale if this happened. It would ultimately make them more money.
I do not buy anything more from id software.
Is a posture of economy, we need a better content, this company still falling with repetitive content, my feeling is expend to much money with this, and see a terrible result in 2011.. after 10 years waiting a good return.
Recycled? falls well the description.
I am very excited. New Doom package announced for me and my collection! Doom is the best!
you're crazy? or have money to burn just for fun?
the room crammed with things, is yours? WTF!
this is strange… how much you spend with this?
Is not a collection of sculptures or something, unique.. Christ.
Awesome….I cant wait loved doom 3.
PC version? Please? Pretty please?
what i want to know Bethesda! is will it have the coop feature that the original Xbox version of Doom 3 had. will only buy it if it has.
LoL , after 8 years finally you put a flashlight on weapons , yupiiiiii.
Good job, but some of us waited for patches, DLC , IDStudio….about a game called RAGE..
And we do not need PС version, we have a Sikkmod who shoots game ahead of RAGE.
Doom 3 BFG – Boring For Gamers
wow why are you here if you hate it so much…i love trolls do you need a hug
Very cool, now we need a Quake one too!! Great job Id Software and Bethesda for this!!
How about Linux Version of Doom3 BFG?
At first I was like, "Wait what? Why?"
Then I was like, "Oh yeah. Doom3 never saw a 360 or a PS3 release."
… well, it's about time! 🙂
Could anyone agree that morrowind re master would be such a great thing on vita? I don't think vita could run this game that well… wish cryengine did something with vita.
I would love a Morrowind remaster. I miss that old game no idea what happened to my copy
Epic soundtrack! <3
more like doom3 BFD edition…
Since I already bought the Doom Pack on Steam, do I get a free upgrade to this BFG version or will I be forced to re-buy what I already own?
Wait, will this be a full retail release or digital only? If it's digital, I'm gonna have to (painfully and sadly) pass…
hey id and bethesda, i look for every concept arts of games made by you, but i didn't found. Do you publish that soon? another thing what do you want do with the password of rage's hideout?something new? i counting for this day, buy how another country guys could see this here. Finishing why do not traslate the games for portugues(Brasil) like Blizzard. it's a good idea. thanks
i forgot doom 3 concept in special
If any game is worthy of a hd release, this is it.. Fuck yeah!
PLEASE increase the monster count — the major flaw of Doom 3 is the way in which it deviated from its successful predecessors; it chucked out the massive waves of demons for a more atmospheric "monsters jump out of closets" approach.
Sounds great especially cince it has 3d support 🙂 ID software you rock! 🙂
Cant wait for this lol. Goodbye girlfriend.
Doom 1 and 2 will come in the separately disk of Doom 3, or will come a recovery code to download it, in case of xbox 360?
Makes me quite sad to see how far ID software have fallen. They just remind me of an ageing rockstar has-been that doesn't know when to quit.
Their games were cool in the 90's but the gaming industry has moved on. Sadly they havent, and this rehash proves their desperation.
so is everything announced actually all on disk (Hope so)
please have LAN and/or split screen modes
Yes! Finally… Super Turkey Puncher HD.
Please, please, please release this on PC with gamepad support.
If the original release of Doom 3 had gamepad support on PC I would have bought the game AGES ago.
Keyboard/mouse play has always been tough for me to get used to due to being a predominantly console player until this gen where I switched to PC.
So please release this for PC with gamepad support and you will have a "day 1 purchase" here.
Definitely getting this. Been a doom fan since the classics.
I've been waiting for this since the PS3 came out. I've been waiting for Amazon to list it so that I can pre-order it.
I must have this but I have one question will there be any achievements / trophys?
Maybe we'll get lucky and multiplayer for all
I'm excited to be able to play doom 3 in 3d with epic sound. This is a great game to play in the dark, sure it is no Half Life (where is the revamp of that in 3d/hd?!), but its still a fun one.
The original doom on my phone has provided great entertainment and I'd be happy to purchase this game if it got iD off their asses to complete Doom 4 and do it properly. Rage had so much potential as the campaign played through and then they just dropped the ball at the end, I felt like I had at least 3-4 more hours of gameplay out of it as far as story line goes. The wave boss scenario was pathetic.
Will there be a Mac version?

Astros open first AL West road trip in Seattle
The Houston Astros are set to embark on their first American League West road trip, as they pay a visit to Safeco Field on Monday to open a three-game series with the Seattle Mariners.
Houston is starting a nine-game road trip along the West Coast that will span 10 days. It has not been a pleasant start for the Astros in their new AL West digs, as they have dropped five in a row since a season-opening win over the Texas Rangers. The season opener was also the last time they scored more than three runs in a game. The Astros were swept at home this weekend by Oakland and were outscored 23-9 in three games.
Things won't get any easier on the road.
"It's a difference, because we now have a full slate of American League games and as we go through the division," said Houston skipper Bo Porter, "we're going to learn things about our division foes and they're going to learn things about us. It'll be constant adjustments as we go along."
After starting the year 2-0, Seattle has lost four of its last five outings. The Mariners were dealt a series loss at Chicago on Sunday thanks to a 10th inning walk-off home run by White Sox left fielder Dayan Viciedo.
If there were any positives to take from that outcome for Seattle, it is the fact that new acquisitions Kendrys Morales and Michael Morse showed the kind of production the front office envisioned when signing the duo to anchor the middle of the lineup. Morse hit a two-run home run in the first inning for his fifth homer of the year, while Morales went deep in the sixth to finish out Seattle's scoring. However, Morse went on to strike out four times and vented some frustration after the game.
"I think we're definitely underachieving," Morse said. "We've only played, what, a week of baseball? But I think we've shown some signs of what we're capable of doing.
"We're not getting the base hits as much right now. No one has clicked yet, really. It's early and there's a lot of baseball left."
The Mariners hope to turn things around beginning on Monday when they open a 10-game homestand. Lefty Joe Saunders takes the hill and will try to atone for his first start of the season, in which he gave up seven hits and four runs in just four innings of work against the A's.
Saunders has gotten to like Safeco Field over the years, as he enters the contest 6-0 with a 2.13 ERA in nine starts on the visiting team.
Houston will counter with Philip Humber, who yielded only one run on five hits in 5 2/3 innings against Texas. In 70 2/3 career innings against AL West competition, Humber boasts a 2.80 ERA.
Monday's game marks the Astros' first visit to Seattle since 2004.

The federal election is set to dominate Australian politics in 2013 and both the prime minister and opposition leader on Monday used their new year's addresses to put forward their plans for the country and make a resolution or two of their own.
Ms Gillard called for 2013 to be a year of renewed national spirit and unity, pledging to create a better world for future generations.
"We have much to do and we will do it best by working together," Ms Gillard said.
"I am determined that 2013 will be the year when we together write the next great chapter in our nation's history."
Mr Abbott also called on Australians to approach 2013 with confidence, vowing the coalition offers plans that will deliver jobs and a strong and prosperous economy.
"Over the months ahead, my colleagues and I will be talking about how we can help all Australians to get ahead," he said.
"This is the positive choice."
The coalition was "not afraid" of having a go and would approach 2013 with a vision of a better Australia, he added.
His government would create two million new jobs, expand small business, clean up the environment, strengthen the borders and build modern infrastructure.
Lower taxes, more efficient government and higher wages would also be a benchmark of a coalition government, Mr Abbott said.
"Let us all approach the coming year with confidence, knowing that we are a people who can rise to any challenge and that there is a better way for our country," he said.
Ms Gillard said Australians had a lot to be thankful for as they start the new year, living in the "best country in the world" with regional security and a strong economy.
But the prospect of a nuclear Iran, the ongoing war in Afghanistan and missile tests in North Korea posed real risks.
Ms Gillard said Australia would use its new two-year term on the UN Security Council, which commences on January 1, to tackle these and other issues.
Alluding to the National Insurance Disability Scheme (NDIS) and the Gonski reforms, Ms Gillard said her government was ready to write the "next great chapter" in Australia's history.
"A chapter about jobs, opportunity, a better education for our children, a better deal for Australians with disability, and that we do so with a renewed Australian spirit," the prime minister said.
And if Ms Gillard needed a boost ringing in the new year, she could find some assurance in the last Newspoll of the year.
The poll, published on Monday in The Australian, found voters were the least pessimistic about their standard of living in the coming months than at any time since the early months of the Gillard government.


text: Amy Paeth, Michelle Taransky, and Steve McLaughlin met up with PoemTalk's host Al Filreis to talk about one of the poems in Laura Mullen's book Enduring Freedom: A Little Book of Mechanical Brides (Otis Books, 2012). Enduring Freedom is a coherent project; its poems constitute a series — a number of approaches to the problem of war's strange but also surprisingly obvious and true convergence with weddings (and wedding planning in particular). The poem we chose is "Bride of the New Dawn." Our recording of Mullen's performance of the poem comes from a reading she gave in October 2012, in Berkeley, as recorded by Ross Craig; it was a reading in which she read fifteen of the Enduring Freedom poems.
