E3 is like a holiday for gamers. The world comes together to stare at trailers and over analyze every tidbit that comes out from new gameplay and trailers to announcements of new IP, revived franchises, and exclusives. Here are my reactions to each of the major press conferences at this years E3. Hopefully you enjoy reading my thoughts and even if you don't, thanks for checking it out anyway! Also, this is going to be a lot of text. I apologize if it is a visually uninteresting blog to check out.
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare - I thought the opening half was not very engaging. the dialogue didn't sell me and I wasn't feeling engaged. Then the psuedo-jetpacks showed up and my interest increased though I still wasn't sold. A note about "skipping because of time" came up and then it got SO MUCH BETTER! Grenades that highlight all enemies in red? Awesome! Homing grenades? Cool! A dramatic moment with a guy blowing up? Nice. The explosion amputating a main characters arm? Holy sh!tbiscuits! I'm not a Call of Duty fan but that second half may have just sold me.
Dragon Age: Inquisition - This is my most anticipated game of the year yet I couldn't have cared less about that trailer =/
Assassins Creed: Unity - Prior to this gameplay demo, I didn't care about this game. French Revolution? Boring! But oo-de-lally does that 4-player co-op looks outstanding! Gimme gimme gimme!!!
Sunset Overdrive - Give the marketing team at Microsoft/Insomniac a raise. Taking the stereotype that Xbox is about shooters and that modern games are obsessed with drab color palettes and cover based shooting and making fun of it was a stroke of genius! The colors, the humor, the apparent fun!
Dead Rising 3 DLC - Hahahaha. YES. All of the yes to this. Capcom is taking the word "fun" to heart with this and celebrating their backlog while totaling making fun of themselves with this. Super Ultra Dead Rising 3' Arcade Remix Hyper Edition EX + Alpha might be the greatest name for a DLC ever.
Project Spark - Before the Microsoft Press Conference I had said that one thing I really want to happen is Conker's Bad Fur Day 2 and Banjo-Threeie but not made by Rare. One of those is happening thanks to Project Spark. Welcome back Conker <3
Ori and the Blind Forest - This was my game of the conference. THE FEELS! When the little white creature is struggling to "wake up" the big black creature pulled on the ol' heart strings. I want this....a lot
Halo Collection and 5 - I could not care less about this. I am fundamentaly against HD remakes. This collection does include the Ridley Scott movie-thing so it has that going for it. I know this was big for a lot of people but I'm not them =P
Evolve - Cthulu has come! They called it "the kraken" but that was totally Cthulu. 4 vs 1 seems to be a thing now.
Fable Legends - 4 vs 1. When did this become so popular? 4 player co-op and one person plays the villain that is basically tower defense.
The Division - open world co-op in post apocalypse. Its a shooter and it looked exactly like what it looked like during the Ubisoft conference last year. Not for me.
Indies - A montage of indies from a myriad of styles and genres. I saw Hyper Light Drifter in there and kinda squealed. So hyped for that game!
Rise of the Tomb Raider - Didn't droop my jaw the way the reboot Tomb Raider announcement trailer did but still more Tomb Raider!
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - This game is riding a train of perfection. First the "killing monsters" trailer a while back just rocked my world. Then "the hunt" trailer was mind boggling. A few days prior to E3 we got "Sword of Destiny" trailer which might as well just say "I win E3!" and here we got a gameplay demo showing how combat works, how the open world hunting works, and how quests can be found. LOVED IT!
Phantom Dust - What is this? Seriously, what is this?? Purple magic lady fighting blue magic dood as the world crumbles....or something like that. I do nay understand
Scalebound - Devil May Cry and Bayonetta director Hideki Kamiya is making a new game about a guy fighting giant monsters. I got a console Monster Hunter-vibe from the trailer though it could be entirely different. Don't really know a lot about it. I do have to say that Platinum Games is mind boggling for a couple reasons: How do they create as many games as they do? and secondly they are a rare company that makes third party exclusives.
Crackdown - More co-op and destroying a building. Inventive how they ultimately took out the shmuck.
FINAL THOUGHTS - Apparently Microsoft was all about the Co-op this year. The Gears of War logo was shown during the montage at the end which wasn't surprising that it was there but I did expect more for the franchise. I liked that there was more diversity than just "MORE SHOOTERS!" and the levity some of the trailers went for. Overall I was impressed with this conference and felt it was a vast improvement over last year.
Star Wars: Battlefront - The visuals looked outstanding at channeling Star Wars. That may sound strange but it just looks like Star Wars. How the gameplay will playout wasn't shown but the developer chat was interesting.
Dragon Age: Inquisition - I LOVED the live cellist(?) with the DA trailer. Why? Because it made the presentation something beyond just a trailer. A trailer can be released online and everyone gets the experience. Making it a presentation adds to the value of it appearing at E3. Also it showed some combat gameplay. It ended with a character bio trailer which was just so much more engaging than the trailer that played during the Microsoft conference.
Mass Effect and New IP - Lots of chatting with developers that said nothing. A complete waste. We already knew that a new Mass Effect was coming and this told us nothing of value. The new IP has trees....that's about all we got.
The Sims 4 - I am 100% aware that this game is not directed at me but good lanta did I hate this entire portion presentation. The scripted dialogue was awful and it felt so long. Neither Chuck nore Gladys was engaging...
EA Sports - UFC, NHL 15, Madden NFL 15, PGA Tour, Fifa. I don't really do sports games but a battleship crashing a golf course definitely caught my attention for its absurdity.
Criterion First Person Vehicle Game - I got the feeling it was open world vehicle nonsense. Basically GTA V without guns, gangsters, or anything not in the vehicle.
Dawngate - MOBA's are a huge deal but I can't possibly see how this competes with League of Legends or DotA 2
Mirror's Edge - YAY! I have to start by saying it was a new song that started the trailer, switched to a song from the original, and ended with the new song again. I LOVE the music from Mirror's Edge so to hear some of it come back was just so valuable to me. The interview style continued here and we saw some more prototyping of how combat will evolve. Stoked for this game!
Battlefield Hardline - Rather than a cops and robbers game this felt just like a Battlefield game. I'm not huge on shooters or multiplayer so take this for the ignorant opinion that it is but from the Battlefield that I have played this looked the same experience. It didn't "feel" like a new game to me. It just came off as an expanded Battlefield 4 DLC.
FINAL THOUGHTS - I have conflicting emotions about the interview style videos. On the one hand they felt like a presentation rather than a straight trailer that could just be released online. On the other hand most of the interviews showed jack diddly squat and didn't really offer value to me as a consumer. Could have been worse but no where near as captivating as I found the EA press conference last year.
Far Cry 4 - The trailer (is it still a trailer if it is just the first 5 minutes of the game?) is pretty serious in tone and it was really captivating. It was really impressive to see how unhinged this fellow was. It's like the Joker as not made by DC Comics. Great way to start off the conference
Just Dance 15 - What the hell?! Watching danced choreography on a game stage is NOT fun or engaging. I realize that Just Dance is a massively popular franchise but good lanta was that boring to watch. Another game clearly not for me.
The Division - All the previous trailers for the game were just gameplay demo's that left me underwhelmed. I know loads of people were stoked but I couldn't care less. Then this trailer showed up. The tone was so somber and the song and raw emotion presented are really powerful.
The Crew - That trailer was very unimpressive. It was gameplay on fast forward. I know it was supposed to show off the scale of the game and the vistas but the fast forwarding gave me the impression of "unexciting game" rather than sell the scope.
Assassin's Creed: Unity - More of the game was shown and a few things really stood out to me. First off is that traversal looks beautiful. The animation and how the characters interact with the walls, poles, etc. was awesome. For example falling and grappling between the various parts of the building were fantastic. I can't believe I am going to say this but this is the first time where I actually thought "this is bro-op" from watching it.
Shape Up - Kinect's Wii Fit. It's like DDR meets Guitar Hero with Wii Fit trainer. Also, the american guy who won the push-up competition wasn't going nearly as low as the french dood.
Valiant Hearts - Again, I love the somber tone and the beautiful narrative of the trailer but I found the visuals to actually be a little disappointing for a Ubiart game. Just didn't scream beauty the way Rayman Origins/Legends and Child of Light did. Still, this is a game for me.
Rainbow Six: Siege - This is EXACTLY what I thought Battlefield: Hardline would be. The destructible environments, the teamwork, the swat versus kidnappers-esque confrontation. I thought it looked sweet!
FINAL THOUGHTS - I was happy to see no #girlwood this time. It wasn't firing on all cylinders like the Ubisoft 2012 conference but it was SUCH an improvement over the Ubisoft 2013 conference. Just like with Microsoft, co-op was the theme here. I was disappointed to see no mention of Beyond Good and Evil 2.
Destiny - Sony is really pushing for this franchise to be associated with Playstation and I get the feeling it will be. Trailer didn't do much for me but I know others loved it.
The Order: 1886 - This game could not have been channeling old Resident Evil any harder if it tried. Its atmosphere, quick-time events, gameplay; all of it screamed Resident Evil to me.
Entwined - Looked like Child of Eden for PS4 and twin stick gameplay rather than Kinect.
Infamous Second Son DLC - It's stand alone meaning you don't need to one Infamous Second Son, It's called First Light, and it stars a female protagonist. More Infamous pretty much sums it up.
Little Big Planet 3 - Or as I will call it LBP3: Sackboy and Pets. Apparently Sackdog (Oddsock), Sackbird (Swoop), and sackthing (Tuggle) were the creative inspiration at Media Molecule. I'm sure it will be awesome because LBP is a gem of a platformer but can't say the pets has sold me.
Bloodborne - This From Software game looked very grim and violent, mixing a Souls series game with some Jack the Ripper London for good measure. Coming to PS4. Color me intrigued.
Far Cry 4 - This was the best looking James Bond game I've ever seen. Seriously, If you didn't know that was called Far Cry that trailer could easily be for a James Bond adventure. The game on PS4 will offer single disc co-op across multiple platforms meaning only one person needs to by the game for you and your friend/friends to play. Also DAT ELEPHANT! <3
Dead Island 2 - I totally got a "this is the actual Dead Rising 3" vibe from the trailer. It had the off-kilter humor and sillyness I associate with the early entries of that franchise and its new DLC but it's from Deep Silver....and called Dead Island 2. Surely the gameplay will be different but that is what the trailer said to me.
Battlefield: Hardline - The trailer was made from the gameplay demo shown earlier. The exact same crane scene was in both! Grappling hooks!
Magicka 2 - 4 player co-op dungeon crawling.
Grim Fandango - I think this is a great game but it's a remake so.....blegh
Devolver Digital - A smorgasbord of indie titles. None screamed BUY ME! but they also didn't say "We're like The Sims 4 so stay the f#$% away!"
Let It Die - Splatterhouse as made by Suda 51
Abzu - I love that the title is "To know water". I find that so cool! All it really showed was swimming with a shark and some whales but it is from some of the guys who made Journey so maybe this is "Aquatic Journey".
No Man's Sky - Endless exploration that looks mighty pretty.
All of Shawn Layden - He covered an awful lot of stuff from Youtube on PS4 to Project Morpheus, a lot about sharing, and a few other topics but it was just so boring. It took a conference that was going along at a smooth pace and dragged it to a crawl. Yuck!
Tales of Hearts R - It got a shoutout for the Vita! This is important because it was one of the few Vita only games to be shown (albeit briefly) and its Tales of! Downside = It's a remake. Upside = It's the first time it is available in English so it's like a new game and I can be more lax on the "remake" aspect.
PS TV - I know people were stoked. An announcement that it is coming to the West was nice for them. $99 when it releases.
Mortal Kombat X - It was like the traler from a couple days ago without the TERRIBLE rap playing. So automatically a vast improvement being sans rap.
Powers TV show - This had already been announced. You didn't show anything. Yes, it is cool that it is coming in December and that PS+ members get the whole show for free (yay!) but too much time was devoted to announcing ultimately nothing. Plus their was a huge Community logo during the Playstation Television conversation giving me false hope they were going to announce Season 6 was coming to the platform >.<
Ratchet and Clank - That movie looks pretty good and I am positive it will be a financial hit when it releases in theaters in 2015. Also a remake of the origianl game is coming to PS4. You should know how I feel about remakes by now.
Last of Us Remastered - An HD port.
MGS V - I had read Kojima talking about how the trailer "might be tough for some people to watch". This one line got my hopes up about seeing some really harrowing things. Instead we got a trailer about Big Boss rubbing the ashes of dead people on his face. I am not impressed. Still, I do want the game.
GTA V - A more HD port.
Batman: Arkham Knight - Batmobile didn't do it for me but the rest of the trailer was beyond captivating. I'm ready Rocksteady!
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End - Good lanta those visuals are incredible! I mean, the details on the fly ^_^ But seriously, I am excited for the game and it does appear to be setting the new bar for "best visuals in a game".
FINAL THOUGHTS - Certainly could have been a better show. Overall there was nothing that made me freak the way KH3 or FFXV did last year. It didn't have a "The Witcher 3" demo sweeping the world with it's awesomeness. It did have some big announcements and the first glimpse of Uncharted 4 which led to an overall pass but I can't help feeling a little disappointed. Truthfully it's because The Last Guardian, KH3, FFXV, and Ape Escape 4 were not present =/
Robot Chicken - The tongue-in-cheek presentation with the toys worked great. Telling Mario he had no business there this year, MAGICAL!
Iwata vs Reggie - This was brilliant! The fight choreography was engaging and stylistic and then....it announced Mii's for Smash Bros. The Mii's come in three varieties: Brawler, Swordfighter, and Gunner. Too bad I don't care about Mii's. Later Palutena from Kid Icarus was also shown as a playable fighter in Smash Bros.
Amiibo - Nintendo's NFC figure initiative with a lame name. I understand you are branding Mii's something fierce Nintendo but this is just forced.
Reggie - Kinda felt preachy but he did an alright job
Yoshi: Wooly World - Used a developer interview set-up with people dubbing over the Japanese developers. Looked surprisingly captivating. I was particularly impressed that the two player mode could have one Yoshi eat the other and spit it.
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracer - All of the no.
The Legend of Zelda - Another developer interview with dubbing. A huge emphasis was placed on "removing the one entrance/one exit" design of past Zelda's or to translate "Zelda Open World". Had a 2015 release date. Finally, Link's face looked really feminine in the trailer and he had a ponytail.
Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Saphire - Bugger off. Not interested.
Bayonetta 2 - This held some genuine surprises in its frantic gameplay and story trailer. First, the original Bayonetta is included with Bayonetta 2! Second, you can dress up Bayonetta in Nintendo themed costumes a la Peach, Link or Samus. Finally it will release in October. Very impressed with this one.
Hyrule Warriors - Developer Interview. It also showed gameplay from Link, Impa, Midna, and Zelda. I'm not gonna lie, I am pretty stoked to murder countless enemies as Zelda =) Release date of September 26.
Kirby & The Rainbow Curse - a touch-screen focused Kirby game is coming in 2015.
Xenoblade Chronicles X - WHY DOES THE TRAILER MAKE THE GAME LOOK SO GOOD?! and then I remember that it will have a variation of the Xenoblade battle system which I hated...../sigh
Mario Maker - Terraria meets Mario coming in 2015
Splatoon - an 8 player 4 v 4 online third person shooter where you fire paint guns and try to cover the most ground with your color paint in a time limit. It reminded me a lot of De Blob. It looked pretty fun. Was delivered in a developer interview.
The Devil's Third - This wasn't actually part of the Digital Event but it was announced as a Wii U exclusive immediately afterward (during?). A hyper violent third person shooter action game from Mr. Itagaki (director of the Ninja Gaiden game on Xbox).
Star Fox Wii U - Outside of the Digital Event, Star Fox was announced for 2015. Why it didn't make the Digital Event is strange but it's coming.
FINAL THOUGHTS - Nintendo should either hire new voice actors to dub the Japanese developers or never do developer interviews again. Good lanta, not a single one of them could emote >.< *ahem* There was some strong stuff shown here though I have to admit I was shocked by how much of it had a 2015 release window. Overall I was impressed with the showing even if it wasn't all for me. Very disappointed not a single mention of Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem though.

About the Book
When my professional scooter riding career started I knew I was a part of something important. Everything was new so history was constantly being made. I recognized this from the start and took advantage of it. Being a photographer I was able to capture these moments. I am interested in what isn't shown in the videos and magazines. Few people have access to the personal life of so many professional riders that have a video camera pointed at them constantly. Fans of riders don't realize that the riders are actors in a video. This is not real life, they can't do the tricks they can do every try. These people are real, and this is the real history of scootering.

It's Valentine's Day tomorrow ~ Heart-shaped balloons and flowers everywhere you go, and #foreveralone jokes all over social media. There's no avoiding it - I think you would have to live in a cave to genuinely forget that tomorrow is a commercialised occasion set aside to celebrate love. Still, as much as some of us might be reminded of being alone, I don't see it as necessarily a bad thing.
One thing I've been increasingly aware of is that being alone does not equate to being lonely. I love being alone, but I hate feeling lonely.
(I've been thinking about this for awhile now, but never got around to penning down my thoughts)
I like to go shopping alone, study alone and eat alone. It's not that I dislike doing these things with friends - I am just equally happy to be alone.
It's quite liberating actually, being able to go wherever you want for however long you want without feeling like you are burdening your friends by making them wait as you drag them from store to store. I love shopping with friends especially when we can give each other advice or scold each other for spending too much money (hahaha), but wandering around town alone is fun in a different way. Sometimes I get tired from shopping and go to the Library@Orchard to read for awhile. It's more difficult to do that when you're shopping with someone.
I think we all get socially exhausted sometimes (or at least I do), especially after spending so much time in social situations that require constant effort to navigate through conversations and having to keep in mind the social etiquettes to be followed. For me, spending some time alone is a great way to recharge. I like having the chance to be alone with my thoughts and do whatever I want without having to care about behaving in a social situation. Sometimes, I just want to have dinner in my room while I watch Friends.
In fact, being in the company of bad friends/acquaintances only make me feel worse about myself. I would much rather be alone than be around people who make me feel like crap. Some people you just cannot click with because let's face it, it's near impossible to be able to get along with every single person you ever meet. Some people just make you end up feeling like an unwanted outsider being neglected. After several of such encounters, I realised there's no obligation for us to turn up for every single social situation anyway, so why not just be with people who make us happy and decline the company of those who ruin your mood?
Ironically, I sometimes feel lonelier around people than when I'm alone. You see, it all boils down to who you are with. Being around "friends" might make you feel lonely despite having the physical company of people around you, while being around friends will never fail to brighten up your day and make you feel blessed and loved even after they leave. This is what keeps you from feeling lonely despite being alone - knowing that there are friends who care about you and friends you can be silly with, even if they are not physically present at the moment.
Ultimately, spending quality me-time is underrated.
Saw this article on Buzzfeed and I think I relate to this so much!
And since I reminded myself about Valentine's Day at the beginning of this entry, I realised memories of my museum outing with Mabel and Crimson on 14 Feb a few years ago are fonder than memories of Valentine's Day with him last year (lol tbh it was quite a shitty one). I guess that only goes to show how our relationship went downhill so quickly and more importantly, that you should never neglect your friends because of a relationship. I know I've made several mistakes during the relationship but one thing I am very glad I kept in mind was to never treat my friends as second-fiddle to my relationship.
Been receiving flowers and random gifts from the suite mates and I hope we all remember that Valentine's Day can be celebrated with friends too :)

Laura & Brent,
From the LaCrosse thread....Is this a major update in these Nav discs? The 2011 was not acceptable, especially for $199.99.
The owners quandry is do we just stop updating our nav, making it a $2k backup camera, and buy the new 5" Garmin GPS for $179 with new maps.
Please advise regarding content and planned release date. Thanks.

Re: Hello!
I am retired Buick Zone Manager with 2011 Lucerne. I had issue with fuel Pump relay under warranty. Buick issued service bulletin in July 2016. I have appointment for July 12 at James Wood Denton, TX. to have bulletin implemented.
I believe Buick Division should at least share in cost. This issue should be a recall on all Lucernes as a potential fire hazard. See my info I am sharing on Buick Forum Below. Thank you
Re: 2008 Lucerne fuel pump relay trouble
The problem is caused when a passenger sets in rear seat behind driver. The seat frame can press down on the fuse-relay box and damage fuel pump relay connectors and in my case melted the plastic fuse- relay holder. Fuse box located adjacent to Battery under rear seat.
Buick issued a Lucerne Service Bulletin in July 2016 for all Lucerne's. it instructs a technician to locate and measure a section of rear seat frame and cut it out, a picture is included. it also request replacing with a LOW PROFILE fuel pump relay.
I had my NO START problem in December 2015 while still in warranty. I have scheduled an appointment with my Buick Dealer for July 12, 2017 to modify rear seat frame at my expense. Must be done or problem will repeat unless no one is allowed to set in left rear seat. Sorry I do not yet have Service Bulletin Number.
Buick should issue a recall of Lucernes to address.

Roberts hints at Blues exit
Jamie Roberts has revealed that he may consider leaving Cardiff Blues when his contract runs out in 2013.
Last Updated: 29/10/10 8:26am
Jamie Roberts has revealed that he may consider leaving Cardiff Blues when his contract runs out in 2013.
The 23-year-old Wales centre has climbed through the ranks at Cardiff and signed a contract extension with the Blues in January.
But with national team-mates Andy Powell, Dwayne Peel and now Gavin Henson making switches to the Aviva Premiership, Roberts has hinted that he also wants to move away from Wales at some point.
"I don't see myself playing for the Blues throughout my whole career," Roberts he told an upcoming programme on Welsh television station S4C.
"I want to still be playing when I'm 34 or 35 and I want to taste different clubs before that, maybe in London or France.
"But at the moment, I'm really happy at the Blues and things are going well for me playing for Wales. It would be silly of me to think about leaving Wales any time soon.
"I'm still quite young, so it would be good for me to live in different places and gain new experiences, to learn about different cultures and in the process, learn about me as a person.
"I've got two seasons left with the Blues after this current season - up until when I graduate from my medicine degree at Cardiff University.
"Once I finish that, I'll be starting a new chapter in my life - maybe at a different club - and hopefully playing my best rugby."
Roberts is currently recovering from a wrist injury and will miss Wales' autumn Tests but is aiming to return to action for his club side in December.
He added: "The doctor thinks that I'll be back just before Christmas. I might be able to return sooner for the Heineken Cup games at the start of December, but it will be difficult to go straight into those physical encounters.
"The first thing I have to do is win my place back in the team. Obviously, the boys at centre - for the Blues and Wales - have been playing well, and I'll have to work harder than ever to regain my spot."

replaced the glow bar ignitor
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
It was so easy ! take out 2 screws , unplug old igniter, plug in new igniter, replace screws and turn on the heat!! Thanksgiving Dinner is back to my house with the whole Family!!!
This job is done from the inside of the oven. Remove the drawer on the bottom. Open the oven and remove the bottom panel in oven which is fastened by two screws at the back. Lift up panel and pull foward to remove. Unscrew deflector plate and small plate that covers wiring hole. Remove ignitor from the burner. Replace ignitor. I found that you should also relpace burner at the same time. Burner usually causes the ignitor to go out. My burner had a hole in it and flames were shooting out directly on the ignitor which shortened the life of the ignitor. When you buy the burner it comes with an ignitor, you can't buy burner seperately but you can buy the ignitor seperately, so I recommend buying the kit.
Repair was very simple. It was a five minute job including time taken to remove old part with a screwdriver and then it was a matter of plugging in the new part ant attaching it to the oven.
Researched problem came to conclusion that igniter was not staying hot (seemed to intermittently go on and off ). One connector and two screws problem solved and the cherry pies are back in my oven and ready for dessert! : )
First, I was amazed at how fast I received my order. I ordered the part on a Friday morning and i received it Saturday morning. Standard shipping. The repair should have been much easier than it was.I removed the oven door by just pulling up and out. then i removed the door underneath the oven. The i reached underneath and disconnected the igniter. From inside the oven, i removed the bottom panel(2 screws). Then i removed the front screw holding the gas tube. I was able to move the tube enough to get at the two screws holding the igniter. one of the screws came out easily using an adjustable wrench. but the other did not come out straight. i had to use tin snips to cut off the igniter so i could acess the screw easier. replacement was in reverse.
Uninstalled the igniter and reinstalled the new one.
removed the screws holding unit in pkce ,unplugged unit'Then I had to cut plug in off new unit and put old plug on new unit. the new unit only had 1 plug and the stove had a2 plug systtem. The put unit back in by replacing thw screws.
I removed the oven door, the base panel of the oven and slid out the broiler tray. Next, I pulled the wires out of the access hole in the back of the oven, then diconnected the modular plug and removed the 2 screws fastening the ignitor. I tested the ignitor with my ohm meter and found out that it did not have the necessary zero ohms resistance. The meter indicated an open circuit, so I ordered the replacement part, which was delivered in less than 24 hours. Then I reassembled everything and tried the oven. Works like new again.
Well first off ordered the part on Monday was here by Tuesday before I went to work. Was able to replace the part the next day and had pizza for lunch for me and the little woman. Just also want to say Thank You.
removed bottom drawer, disconnected screws holding burner in place. unplug igniter. remove bottom tray from inside oven, remove 1 screw holding burner in place near door, remove whole burner assembly. take 2 screws holding element in place. screw new element to burner and reverse procedure. only tool i used was a 1/4 in nut driver.

I've been involved recently in establishing one -The Pilgrims Trail - from Subiaco to New Norcia. It's been a wonderful, creative, cultural experience and this year will be our fifth year of organised walks. Next month two more walking groups will be following this trail and as a part of the preparation we recently sent out a reminder to all walkers that the three most important things about walking are boots, boots and boots! Our feet are probably the greatest unsung heroes of our bodies! As health experts, we tell people that they should be taking 10,000 steps each day to help maintain good health. That means hitting the heels of your feet on the ground 10,000 times and expecting them to take that punishment without complaint, and then take it again decade after decade. And some of the females of our species even try to do this in footwear that might make them several centimeters higher, yet forces their toes into a cramped, wedged space inside a rigid structure known as the "High Heeled Shoe"! They may make a lady look awesome, but they also do Aaw-some things to their feet too! Caring for our feet is really important - just ask anyone who has had recent foot surgery, or someone who suffers from the inflammatory joint disease known as rheumatoid arthritis. For these people, putting their feet into shoes and trying to walk is a real act of courage and a daily struggle. The thought of walking around their home can be full of pain and the idea of going shopping becomes something that fills them with dread. So I've designated this week as: Be Kind To Feet Week Long distance walkers - and ladies who wear high heeled shoes - are more likely to get blisters. Blisters are not only painful, they can be a real worry for those people who suffer from diabetes or poor circulation - also known as peripheral vascular disease. Diabetics and those with PVD have to be extremely careful if they get blisters, because if those blisters were to get infected, then there is a real possibility that this could lead to gangrene and amputation of the affected limb! So whilst we might laugh at people who limp with a blister, for some it can be extremely serious. To reduce the chances of suffering from blisters we need to reduce the friction at the skin surface. This means keeping the skin dry, changing socks frequently and using dressings that lower the friction as soon as you feel a "hot spot". If you're a long distance walker then it's also important that you wear your boots in before you set out as stiff, unyielding footwear will increase the chances of blistered feet. (Fashion conscious ladies take note too!). What happens when you get a blister is that the skin has sheared and plasma has accumulated within the skin. This needs time to be reabsorbed and the new skin underneath given enough time to mature into resistant skin. Sticking unsterile needles in them or threading a bit of cotton through them (one woman I met swore that this was the perfect cure!!) is not a great idea as this vastly increases the chances of surface bacteria getting into an area they shouldn't get access to and in the case of a diabetic, this could prove lethal! Low grade shearing stress over a period of time will stimulate the basal skin cells to replicate more quickly, and as they mature the thickened surface skin will start to form a callus which can produce its own complications. These calluses often form over the heel, or already deformed joints in the foot such as bunions on the big toe, or over the joints of hammer toes in the smaller digits of the foot. These need to be treated by accredited professionals and the patient's footwear assessed for suitability and possible replacement with surgical footwear - and these are never as attractive for those who are fashion conscious! Ingrown toenails (IGTN) are another blight on the foot, and extremely painful too. Yet again, those with PVD or diabetes should seek immediate medical advice should they suspect they have an IGTN. Interestingly, it's young sportsmen and women who suffer most from infected nails, and for them the thought of kicking a football with such an infection is enough to bring tears to their eyes. As with most medical conditions, prevention is better than a cure: always cut your nails across the nail and don't dig down into the recesses at the side to get out bits of fluff as the points of your scissors can break the skin and introduce surface bacteria into those warm moist recesses where they love to thrive! Ongoing management of IGTNs means that you need to keep the foot dry and check that your footwear is not causing too much pressure on the ends of the affected nails. Most cases will heal with simple remedies but some may need antibiotics, and some of those may end up undergoing surgery to remove a wedge of nail. We may not think about our feet often, but this being Be Kind to Your Feet Week, why not say "Hi" to them tonight when you take your shoes off and thank them for the wonderful work they do for you!

Don John
Liar Selfish and Chaotic
I think that Don John is motivated by the fact he is a bastard. Throughout his life he was told that he is bad and eventually he just became bad. He was probably outcasted because he was a bastard and that had negative effects. The quote "I cannot hide what I am"(act 1 scene 3 12-13) shows that he thinks he is evil and he doesn't think he should try and change that.
Character Progression
Don John doesn't really change from the beginning of Much Ado About Nothing to the end of it. Throughout the story other people would really treat him like and outlast and they talked about him like he was evil. They did this because of the fact he was a bastard which caused him to be more evil. "...Don John your brother incensed me to slander the lady hero, how you were brought into the orchard and saw me court margaret in Hero's garments, how you disgraced her when you should marry her"
Don John contributed to the plot by being the antagonist in the story. He tried to stop Claudio and Hero from being married. He did this by asking Borachio to convince Claudio that Hero had cheated on him.
He impacted the theme of love by being the antagonist also. Since Don John still loves chaos seen when he was cheering after his plan worked. Don John really conflicts with what the theme would be without him because at the end he doesn't have a happy ending.

Fundraiser for United Way of Becker County set to take place this Friday
The Boys & Girls Club of Detroit Lakes is one of the agencies that receive funding from the United Way of Becker County every year.
So when they were approached by the United Way to make a donation for its annual business drive, they wanted to contribute — but they thought they could make a bigger impact if they held a fundraiser, and opened it to the public.
That resulted in the first-ever Build-Your-Own Baked Potato Lunch, which will be held at the Boys & Girls Club this Friday, Oct. 18 from 12 to 1:30 p.m.
"We'll be raising money for the United Way, and also getting people in the community to come to the club and see all the things we have happening here," said Boys & Girls Club Executive Director Pat Petermann.
The Boys & Girls Club will be offering a full day of programming for the kids that day, due to the MEA break.
There will be no classes at Detroit Lakes Public Schools from Wednesday through Friday, so the club will be open from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on each of the three days (they will also be serving an evening meal for the participants daily, at 5:30 p.m.).
"We have 84 kids signed up to be here (over the break)," Petermann said.
The club's typical after-school attendance ranges between 125-300 kids, he added, though about 25-30 of those are teenagers in grades 5 and up, who take part in the club's teen program.
Rather than going to the club, the teens go to Grace Lutheran Church each day, where they have their own program coordinator to organize activities and help them with their homework.
"The teens wanted to have their own space to hang out and do things," Petermann explained. "They have foosball and a pool table, games to play, and on nice days, they can go outside."
The teens are involved in some community service projects as well, he added.
Because the club will be open all day Friday, that means those who come to the lunch will have a chance to not only tour the facilities, but also see the kids in action, Petermann said.
And, of course, they will get the chance to enjoy a nice, nutritious baked potato, piled high with healthy (and a few not-so-healthy) ingredients.
The potato bar will be piled high with a variety of toppings, from broccoli, green peppers and onions to bacon, cheese and sour cream — not to mention chili and green peppers.
"People can put their own toppings on — as much or as little as they want," Petermann said.
The cost is a free will donation.
The kids will be eating a separate meal prior to the luncheon, he added, so those who attend will have a chance to watch them taking part in various activities.
All proceeds raised will go directly to benefit the United Way of Becker County, Petermann said.
The Boys & Girls Club is located at 150 Richwood Road, up the hill behind Four Seasons Car Wash at the northwest corner of the Highway 34 intersection.
For more information, please call the Boys & Girls Club at 218-847-5700.

France is a semi-independent nation located in western Europe. It is a socialist state, which was once an autocracy, although now some democratic liberties have been given. It is leader of the Union of French Socialist States.
France has existed in many forms since the kingdom of Gaul.
After the storming of the Bastille in 1789, France became a constitutional monarchy. It was not long, however, before Napoleon Bonaparte took power in 1799. Napoleon attempted to built a massive European empire. His efforts ultimately failed after a disastrous invasion of Russia and several later defeats.
France was a major part of the scramble for Africa and by 1900 had a significant colonial empire. However, tensions with other great powers were high, especially Germany, since France had lost the earlier Franco-Prussian war massively.
After France allied itself with Russia against Germany, it was only a matter of time before war broke out between the two countries. In 1914 this happened and was it not for the reluctant defence of the country by Britain, France would have been defeated instantly.
It would take, however, until 1917 and a major trench mutiny for Paris to finally be captured and France to surrender. Many historians argue this had a worse effect on the country than a sudden defeat because of the massive human cost of the war.
The Treaty of Paris ended the war with humiliation for France. As well as losing numerous colonies, the northern half of France was demilitarised and some small areas annexed. France's armed forces were slashed.
Socialist Dawn
The terrible defeat led to a massive socialist uprising, especially in the south of the country. This was eventually crushed by the end of the year but sentiment ran high.
Eventually the Socialist Party of France took power under Oliver Bourdette in 1925. Measures were taken to eliminate the opposition using the large-scale support of the party.
By 1935, France had "broken free" of the constraints of the treaty. It had a modern military, and had even managed to salvage relations with Germany. The economy was booming.
In 1939 Britain invaded Ireland. France threatened to go to war with Britain if they did not withdraw. This demand was ignored and both France and Germany joined the war.
In 1940, after an unsuccessful bombing campaign against Britain, France found itself being invaded in Normandy and through Wallonia. This was claimed to be a "liberation war," from socialism. However, French citizens were treated very poorly by the British as they were considered the enemy, regardless of whether or not they were carrying a weapon.
French troops were experiencing massive defeats in the north of the country and Paris was under threat. In the winter of 1940/41 however, the capital was successfully held and British supplies began to run out. The following drive to the coast lasted an entire year, and coupled with guerrilla warfare from colonists in Normandy a further two years were added. Britain still refused to surrender after this, however, so an invasion was planned with Germany.
The landings took place all along the south coast in early 1942. French troops were mainly responsible for operations in the south of the country, including the battle of London. Some French divisions were also sent to Ireland.
The campaign ended with the joint German/French capture of Glasgow and the surrender of the makeshift British government.
Wallonian Crisis
Occupation zones were quickly established in Britain. France claimed the southern half of the island and several colonies. Unlike in Germany, an official puppet government was not established immediately and the area lay under direct French government rule.
In July 1944 the German Chancellor asked the French government when they intended to withdraw their troops from Wallonia. Wallonia had previously been invaded by the British until a supposed liberation by French troops.
France responded by saying that they had no immediate plans to withdraw as rebuilding "was still in progress." Arguments were exchanged, with the French using Germany's annexation of Flanders as a counter-argument. Eventually, the Germans surprisingly backed down, stating that they would observe the treatment of Wallonian citizens carefully.
In late 1945 the area was formally annexed to France. There was little resistance and the French government released news articles stating that up to 90% of Wallonians supported the annexation, calling it "France's Austria" (Austria had previously been annexed by Germany after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire).
Economic Rise
France experienced years of rapid economic growth after the austerity years of the 1950s. Although problems were experienced with uprisings in England and Africa in 1958, these were crushed by occupying forces. The leader of France at the time, Arnaud Sacre, was reasonably progressive and sought friendly relations with Germany and the USA. He also began the formation of the Union of French Socialist States.
In 1965 the UFSS was officially created. This was similar to the USSR in that it comprised of numerous federative states under the leadership of France. These included France, various colonies, Wallonia and by 1968 South England.
In 1966 the Soviet Union collapsed under civil unrest. This was a blow to France, however order was kept and the country managed to prevent any uprisings. However in 1968 France created the state of South England, partly because the period of purging and conversion to communism was over, and partly as a progressive measure.
Economic Decline and Unrest
The 70's marked a period of economic decline in France. Tensions in colonies meant that more money had to be put aside for soldiers. In 1978 French Indochina declared independence although remained communist. France attempted to intervene, leading to a long and fruitless war that ended in 1985 with a withdraw for France.
Along with Germany, France began granting greater autonomy to colonies in the 1980's, but keeping them in the UFSS - meaning ultimately all power still resided in Paris. Communism was generally favoured in Africa, and although France rule was not massively popular for the populace, information distributed on the collapse of communist countries that had declared independence was widely believed. The UFSS had in a way created a safety net for French prestige.
England Independent
In 1993 Britain was allowed to reunite under the terms of the Osborne Conference. France was reluctant to grant South England independence but eventually did in the spring. Britain became a new country and began to adapt a democratic, moderate stance. However, by both banning communism and fascism the country had alienated a large portion of the population.
In 1996 the country had broken out into full civil war after splitting apart again. The League of Nations declared the United Republic a failed state.
Intervention in Britain
In 1998 both Germany and France, with some help from the USA, decided to try and end the civil war. Troops were landed and managed to disperse rebels. Tensions soon began as France would not allow communist rebels to be engaged in combat. French and American leaders refused to work together.
Eventually French operations were consigned to the south, German to the north and American in west Wales and north Scotland.
In 2002 the region was finally declared stable. American troops withdrew, however France and Germany decided to stay in limited force - France wanting a part of its nation back. Numerous small countries were created who required no foreign military presence.

Taylor Swift: Fearless
6 Recommendations
guitarlicks's recommendation
She is THE biggest country star for a reason. I would recommend this girl's songwriting and singing abilities to a complete stranger. No matter what style you like, she is the real thing. I found this AMAZING deal on Amazon. I have no idea how long this special is going to last for but right now you can buy Taylor's new album for $3.99!
davechung's recommendation
Taylor Swift's sophomore album is a pleasant surprise and one of my favorite "new" country albums. Songs like "The Way I Loved You," "Love Story," "White Horse," and "Breathe," not only don't get old, but they show her versatility as a songwriter.
JustEliana's recommendation
Ok I have to admit, as much as Taylor Swift annoys me, this CD is really good. Fearless is my favorite song.

CandiceH28's recommendation
Although I may not agree with all the awards Miss Swift has gotten lately, nor do I think her music should necessarily be classified as country per se, I DO think she's a great artist, and just what teenage girls need. Her heartfelt lyrics always seem like they could've come straight from my teenage diary. Her song, "Fifteen" frequently makes me think of my sophomore-age sister, and her song, "The Best Day" makes me cry, thinking about my mother. The album has a "pop" feel to it...but however you classify it, it's an album worth getting.

Silva promises more to come
David Silva has warned Manchester City's top-four rivals that the Blues are only just getting started.
Last Updated: 07/03/11 11:53am
David Silva has warned Manchester City's top-four rivals that the Blues are only just getting started.
Roberto Mancini's men closed to within seven points of Premier League leaders Manchester United with a 1-0 win over Wigan on Saturday, while they are still in contention for Europa League and FA Cup glory this season.
And 25-year-old forward Silva is confident City are only taking the first steps in their mission to bring success to Eastlands.
"There is a lot more to come," said the Spain international.
"It is difficult because it has been a lot of people's first season here. It is hard to gel and come together as a unit in that short space of time.
"But we have proved we are becoming more of a proper side and the more we play together the better we will become."
City can momentarily forget about their pursuit of a UEFA Champions League spot as they attempt to secure a passage into the Europa League quarter-finals by beating Dynamo Kiev on Thursday.
Mancini's men will also bid to reach their first FA Cup semi-final in 30 years by overcoming Reading next Sunday.
And former Valencia man Silva sees no reason to choose which competition he would prefer to win.
"Let's hope we can get both," he said. "We are in a good league position now and still alive in the two cup competitions.
"Let's hope we can keep doing this and stay in the top four and at least guarantee the Champions League next season."

Oil is national treasure; it means any single individual cannot enjoy the luxury of a treasure because the natural resources are immensely valuable to the process of nation building and enriching its people forever. The mines of gold, silver, iron, steel, marble, granite etc are considered national treasures for the reason that the whole country can grow in all their richness. Apart from satisfying the needs of the entire nation, we can trade all these resources with the rest of the world for a price fixed by the people of India.
Foreign currency in-flow would snowball. Because the citizens are kept away from the national level dealings by the political system of our country the politicians have plundered the nation. But they keep saying, 'we are poor and developing the nation' while in reality, the nation is not. Sea is the biggest national source of wealth, surrounding us on all the three sides with the largest and the longest beach shore lining our nation, together constituting another extraordinarily huge treasure.
Since people are not directly involved in the governance of national importance, the political families of the nation have squandered in the entire sea of treasure wherever they could lay their hands upon and bundled the money out of the nation for there is not enough space in Indian banks to stack all the wealth; such is the treasure of the 'poorest nation', falsely projected by the political parties of India contrary to the reality. The longest Beach coast of India is a very valuable asset for the flow of foreign income; if Goa beach alone can attract so many foreigners as tourists, how great would it be, if the entire beach line is made into tourist attraction resorts. All we need to do is make the beaches national treasures and pay attention and earnestness to them.
India is full of natural treasures and yet tourism never got the much-needed boost in India: Modi http://t.co/ZYJXDkYCMI
— Firstpost (@firstpostin) February 23, 2014
The worlds' wealth would roll into India and we could make air-strips and helipads for the private jets to land in specific beach areas like that of Kee-La- Wee, which we would make so that the richest people and professionals of international repute and honours would use to spend their time in the Leisure lands of our Treasure Land, India. All these require spending not from the exchequer but from the foreign funds that pour in day in and day out. For these lovely things to happen to India, the people of the Great Nation must govern the country and the politicians must be kept out of reach of such nation building measures.
The constitution must change in such form that the Aam Aadmi is the real ruler and the politicians are the working class executing the orders of the cream society. And next the people of India should be regarded as the finest of all treasures, the living exemplary wonders for the world to follow such that the world population would make a bee line waiting for their grand turn to visit the people of our Great Nation, to get a glimpse of the wisdom and vision of its people . There is no shortage of knowledgeable wonders, the wizards of all walks of life and there is no dearth for the explorers of the rarest wisdom in our country.
The Indian treasure must be raised in honour, high above the Presidents and Prime Ministers such that their nod in the erection of a splendid India shall be taken up in the scale of a war-footing. All eminent Indian National from all over the world shall be given a life much superior here compared to the living standards they enjoy presently abroad. The treasures of all walks of life must be brought back home forcing the entire world to out source their jobs. This is not fantasy, this is not fancy but this is absolute reality. All of this and more and more would happen if the Aam Aadmi governs the Nation. The time has come to sideline the political people; upgrade the citizens as the Lords above them! And it is the era of AAP
