Tucson, Ariz. –-(Ammoland.com)- For over forty years Safari Club International has been dedicated to protecting hunters' rights and promoting wildlife conservation.
Through a worldwide network the 55,000 members who belong to 200 local chapters help encourage an appreciation for nature and wildlife so that conservation efforts remain strong, while also fighting to protect the rich hunting heritage.
SCI accomplishes its main goals through a number of programs including advocacy, education, representation and the networking of its members.
Since 2000, SCI has spent $140 million to protect the freedom to hunt through policy advocacy, litigation and education for state legislators to ensure hunting is protected for future generations. Through direct involvement and partnerships with like-minded organizations, SCI has become a political force in Washington, D.C., as well as other world capitals.
The weekly e-bulletin In The Crosshairs provides breaking news to more than 45,000 SCI members on a weekly basis about legal issues and government actions. Members also receive 12 issues of Safari Times and six issues of SAFARI Magazine containing useful tips and tactics as well as exciting stories from other members' hunts.
Individuals who become SCI members are eligible to attend the SCI Annual Hunter's Convention, submit trophies to the SCI Record Book of Trophy Animals and be considered for the Awards Program. They also have access to the Hunter's Hotline for important information and updates on importation of trophies and travelling with firearms, access to hunt reports from around the world, free admission to the International Wildlife Museum at SCI headquarters in Tucson, Arizona and an official SCI membership card.

By practicing ethical hunting as well as participating in humanitarian efforts around the globe, people can be educated about the positive impact hunting has on game populations and local economies. Local chapters focus on projects in their areas such as Sportsmen Against Hunger and wildlife habitat restoration to name a few. With chapters in all 50 states it is easy to get connected and participate.
Funding for SCI's efforts comes primarily from their Annual Hunters' Convention, the Ultimate Hunters' Market. Next year's 42nd Annual Hunters' Convention will have every possible hunting expedition, safari, fishing excursion, and fine firearm on display for sportsmen and women of every interest level. Six continents of adventure and wonder are under one roof at SCI's Annual Hunters' Convention.

Now that Superman's no longer wearing his trademark red undershorts, in either the comics or movie versions, you might have wondered what's become of them. And apparently, they're in Malaysia, where they're a hot-selling item.
According to the New Straits Times, residential neighborhoods in Tampoi have been plastered with ads for "Superman's Underpants," which are supposed to be able to cure sexual problems. The special undergarments, which come equipped with magnets, are supposed to be able to cure impotence and increase penis size. The Straits Times quotes affronted retiree Mohd Ilham Samudin as saying:
For me, this could cause a bad influence among the community. Superman fans, especially the men, could be duped into spending thousands of ringgit to buy the product with the assumption that they could gain special powers by wearing them.
Samudin adds that it's inappropriate to use the Superman name to advertise this product which, after all, has nothing to do with Kal-El, or any of his powers. But at least now we know where Henry Cavill's missing red trunks went.

Palestinian wounds 11 in Tel Aviv bus stabbing
TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) -- A Palestinian man stabbed 11 people on and near a bus in central Tel Aviv on Wednesday, seriously wounding three of them before he was shot and arrested by Israeli police.
Police described the assault as a "terrorist attack," and the Islamic militant group Hamas praised it. It appeared to be the latest in a series of "lone-wolf" attacks in which Palestinians have killed and wounded Israelis using knives, acid and vehicles, citing tensions surrounding a disputed Jerusalem holy site.
The man, who was riding the bus with the other passengers, began stabbing people, including the driver, then managed to get out of the bus and run away from the scene, stabbing a woman in the back on his way.
Officers from a prison service, who happened to be nearby, saw the bus swerving out of control and a man running away. They gave chase, shot the man in the leg, wounding him lightly, and arrested him.
"He had murder in his eyes," a bus passenger who gave her name as Orly, told Israel Radio.
Eleven people were stabbed and three remain in critical condition, according to Lee Gat, a spokeswoman at Tel Hashomer hospital, and a statement from the Ichilov hospital. Police earlier said nine people had been stabbed, citing initial numbers giving by paramedics at the scene.
Video aired by Israel's Channel 10 TV showed the attacker running in the street and stabbing a woman in the back as he tried to escape. Police confirmed that the attacker stabbed a woman as he attempted to flee.
Police identified the assailant as 23-year-old West Bank resident Hamza Mohammed Matroukh, a Palestinian who had entered Israel illegally.
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said Matroukh was in custody and undergoing questioning. Police said he confessed to the stabbing, saying he carried it out in response to last year's Gaza war and tensions surrounding a Jerusalem site holy to Jews and Muslims.
The stabbing appeared to be the latest in a series of attacks in recent months carried out by individual Palestinians with no known ties to armed groups, which have killed about a dozen people, including five killed when two men attacked a Jerusalem synagogue with guns and meat cleavers. Police say the attacks are almost impossible to prevent.
The violence comes weeks ahead of March elections, in which Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a security hawk, is facing a challenge from a joint list headed by Isaac Herzog and Tzipi Livni, who support negotiations with the Palestinians. The violence could sway votes in Netanyahu's favor.
At the scene of the attack, a Jewish head covering lay beside headphones on the floor of the bus, with blood splattered nearby. Police sealed the central intersection where the attack occurred, which is typically clogged with cars, as paramedics tended to the wounded.
Herzl Biton, the bus driver, was stabbed in the upper body and liver and was in surgery, his niece Cheli Shushan said. She said he had tried to fight back and sprayed the attacker with pepper spray.
Biton called his friend, Kazis Matzliach, as the attack was unfolding, describing the mayhem. Matzliach said he could hear the sounds of screaming while his friend was talking, telling him if "something happens to me, please take care of my children."
Hamas, the Islamic militant group that controls the Gaza Strip, did not claim responsibility but praised Wednesday's attack as "brave and heroic" in a tweet by Izzat Risheq, a Hamas leader residing in Qatar.
The stabbing is a "natural response to the occupation and its terrorist crimes against our people," Risheq said.
Israeli officials say the attacks stem from incitement by the Western-backed President Mahmoud Abbas and other Palestinian leaders.
"The terrorist attack in Tel Aviv is the direct result of the poisonous incitement being disseminated by the Palestinian Authority against the Jews and their state," Netanyahu said Wednesday. "This same terrorism is trying to attack us in Paris, Brussels and everywhere."
Hanan Ashrawi, a senior Palestinian official, condemned the violence but said it came as a result of the Israeli occupation.
"You cannot have a violent military occupation with full impunity and then expect all its victims to be calm and quiet," she said.
Most of the recent violence has occurred in Jerusalem, though there have been other attacks in Tel Aviv and the West Bank.
In Jerusalem, the violence came after months of tensions between Jews and Palestinians in east Jerusalem -- the section of the city the Palestinians demand as their future capital. The area saw a wave of violence last summer, capped by a 50-day war between Israel and Hamas militants in Gaza.
Much of the recent unrest has stemmed from tensions surrounding a key holy site in Jerusalem's Old City. It is the holiest site for Jews, who call it the Temple Mount because of the revered Jewish Temples that stood there in biblical times. Muslims refer to it as the Noble Sanctuary, and it is their third holiest site, after Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia.
Associated Press writers Ian Deitch in Jerusalem and Karin Laub in Gaza City, Gaza Strip, contributed to this report.

Thomas Streck (16th century)
Thomas Streck, a Mennonite, a native of Wachtebeke in Flanders, lived at Ghent, Belgium, where he was arrested in 1566. Although he was only 18 years of age, he very eloquently and firmly confessed his faith. He is said to have "seduced" many persons, and for his "heresy" he was sentenced to death. For some reason or other the execution was postponed. Thomas, being very frank, requested his release. Verheyden believes that he was not put to death but sent to the galleys after 10 June 1566.

A cleaning pig is designed to facilitate the removal of sediments in a drain or sewer. It is formed as a cylindrical device with shallow channels on the surface and is propelled through the pipe by the flow.
It is released into the pipeline from a launcher and retrieved again at a receiver.When passed through a wastewater pressure pipe, the cleaning pig flushes out sediment, such as sand, sludge and other debris in the pipeline. Such debris causes friction losses and over time can block the pipe totally. Removing debris also helps to avoid H2S gasses formed in connection with sedimentation in pipes.
When designing a pressure pipe system, it is important to correctly position the launch sites for the cleaning pig, especially when the pipe changes diameter.

Fairfield forum: Cost, conservancy concerns pose hurdles to Merritt Parkway trail
Public reaction to a conceptual layout of the Fairfield section of a multi-use trail proposed along the Merritt Parkway was mixed at a state Department of Transportation meeting in Roger Ludlowe Middle School Tuesday night.
The asphalt trail, which would be 37.5 miles long in the Merritt Parkway's right-of-way from Greenwich through Stratford, had initially been estimated by DOT officials to cost from $200 million to $250 million. But they also estimate it wouldn't be built for 10 years -- because of environmental reviews that are needed, as well as potential legal challenges -- and that inflation would raise the cost to $280 million to $350 million.
"The funding source would have to be identified," said William W. Britnell, a DOT principal engineer. "This is a feasibility study. This is not a design ... This is not a proposal to actually build a trail."
Mike Calabrese, a DOT project manager, said the DOT is neutral on whether the trail should be built. He said the purpose of Tuesday night's meeting -- the first of eight scheduled in municipalities where the trail would be built -- was to determine if the trail was feasible.
Most of the roughly 50 people who attended the Ludlowe meeting asked questions. Several others said the trail would increase property values, quality of life and tourism, while three members of the Merritt Parkway Conservancy opposed the trail, mostly because of its aesthetics and would require tree removal.
"The right-of-way should not be looked upon as vacant land, ready to be developed," said Jill Smyth, executive director of the conservancy. She said the Merritt Parkway's wide right-of-way is a feature like its historic bridges and that the proposed trail would contradict the DOT's guidelines for the parkway.
Alloe Stokes, a member of the conservancy's board of directors, said the Merritt Parkway is "a very unique road and it really needs to be recognized as a national treasure."
"This is something that, once destroyed, can never be brought back," Stokes said.
Stokes disputed as "laughable" the DOT's estimate that it would take $50,000 a year to maintain the 37.5-mile trail. DOT officials said the $50,000 figure came from towns that have similar trails and that their maintenance cost per mile was multiplied for the 37.5-mile trail.
Britnell said the DOT does not have the manpower for daily maintenance on the trail, such as emptying garbage cans and removing tree branches, though he said the state agency would repave the trail as needed. He said elected officials in towns where the trail would be built "weren't jumping up and down to maintain this."
"Before we got to the point of building this or designing it, that would have to be addressed," Britnell said.
Benefits of the trail mentioned by Calabrese include as an alternative to motorized transportation, a different way to experience the Merritt Parkway, health, tourism, the ability to connect the trail to existing north-to-south trails, and providing a link to businesses, open spaces, parks, recreational facilities and schools.
Mike Cherpak, a DOT project engineer, said studies of existing trails show they caused no increase in crime, and that public support and use of the trails increased after they were built.
The trail in Fairfield would run along the parkway's southern right-of-way, which is about 150 feet wide, for about six miles. The trail would be 10 feet wide, not including a 2-foot-wide gravel shoulder on either side, and have fences on either side. About 78 percent of the trail through Fairfield would be "at grade," 16 percent would consist of bridges or boardwalks needed because of wetlands or dramatic changes in grade, and 5 percent would have benches. Two tunnels -- where the trail would cross under Burr Street and Merwin's Lane -- also are envisioned.
"Those are conceptual treatments," Cherpak said of the tunnels. "We felt those locations required use of a tunnel to cross because of existing topography." He said none of the bridges would be over local roads.
Cherpak said the DOT also envisioned "switchbacks" -- where the trail would meander instead of going in a straight line -- to have a flatter slope, citing sections by Redding Road and Park Avenue as examples. He said the DOT wants to keep the trail's slope at 5 percent with short segments at 8.3 percent. The section of the trail that would cross Park Avenue would be signalized, he added.
The longest section of "uninterrupted travel" of the trail through Fairfield would be a 1.65-mile stretch from Hillside Road to Black Rock Turnpike, Cherpak said.
The DOT has no plans to install overhead lights on the trail -- though lights in the two tunnels may be possible -- or to clear snow off it. Trees could be planted to shield the trail from nearby homeowners close to the parkway's right-of-way, Calabrese said.
About eight-tenths of a mile of the trail, between Black Rock Turnpike and Morehouse Road, wouldn't comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, Calabrese said. Britnell said the DOT would figure out a secondary route for that section.
The environmental review of the trail, which would be on state land, would be done by the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, and local conservation officials wouldn't have jurisdiction, Britnell said.
DOT officials, after holding informational meetings in the seven other communities where the trail would be built, plan to meet with the Greater Bridgeport Regional and South Western Regional plannig agencies. After those meetings, a document on the trail's impact on the environment would be prepared, Calabrese said.
The conceptual layout presented Tuesday night, which was funded by a $1.3 million grant from the National Scenic Byways Program, was based on workshops held in communities through which the trail would pass, guidelines for designing a trail, field walks and an inventory of cultural and natural landmarks, Calabrese said.
He said the two major concerns expressed at other workshops were safety, which he said mostly involve the points where the trail crosses roadways, and the design of the trail.

Early Childhood Care and Education Regional Report – Europe and North America (UNESCO)
Despite efforts to expand and improve education for children in the Roma community, the largest ethnic minority in Europe, an estimated 50 per cent fail to complete primary education, according to a report presented at the first World Conference on Early Childhood Care and Education, taking place in Moscow. The regional report for Europe and North America states that "among all the European populations, the Roma are at greatest risk of being poor, uneducated and unemployed." It points to European and national opinion surveys that show many European citizens have negative views about the Roma that are often based on stereotypes and prejudice dating back several centuries. There are an estimated 10 million members of the Roma community in Europe, according to the report.

French: http://www.ohchr.org/fr/Countries/AfricaRegion/Pages/RDCProjetMapping.aspx
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights released on 1 October 2010 a 550-page report listing 617 of the most serious violations of human rights and international humanitarian law over a ten-year period by both state and non-state actors in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Tens of thousands of people were killed, and numerous others were raped, mutilated or otherwise victimized during the decade. The report also examines in detail various options for truth and reconciliation, as well as for bringing those responsible for serious crimes to justice, thereby ending a climate of near-total impunity and setting the foundation for sustainable peace and development in the DRC.

We, the People, affirm that we will support and defend Liberty as "endowed by our Creator," enshrined in our Constitution and empowered by its Second Amendment, "against all enemies, foreign and domestic."
Across our great nation, there is a groundswell of protest against the leftist agenda of those now holding power in the Executive and Legislative branches of the central government.
The tenor of this grassroots movement is growing louder as its number swells and its purpose becomes defined. It is a protest characterized not by a roar for revolution, but by a clarion call for restoration -- repair of our Constitution's authority and return to its standard for Rule of Law.
A citizen petition to pray for our uniformed Patriots who stand in harm's way around the world, particularly in Afghanistan and Iraq, in defense of our liberty, and for their families awaiting their safe return.
The only real hope for preventing the weight of the central government from crushing the life from our Republic is to renew the bid for a constitutionally mandated balanced-budget amendment and to enact real tax reform. A Balanced Budget Amendment, combined with real tax reform -- namely, a flat or national sales tax with deductions and exclusions -- will result in a reduction in government spending.
A citizen petition to restore Constitutional integrity to government, and entreat the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches to confine their actions to comport with the limits of Constitutional law.
We remain the proud and the free because Patriots -- American Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines and Coastguardsmen -- have stood bravely in harm's way, and remain on post today. For this, we, the American People, offer our heartfelt thanks. Please sign this Open Letter to express your gratitude.
Though John Kerry has an extensive and well-documented record of anti-American activities over the past three decades, it is his acts of treason in 1970-71 that are the subject of this petition for indictment. Our appeal notes both Kerry's violations of the UCMJ (Article 104 part 904) and U.S. Code (18 USC Sec. 2381 and 18 USC Sec. 953), and calls for his disqualification for public office.
A citizen petition to stop judicial activists who endeavor to alter the meaning of the U.S. Constitution, willfully violating their oaths to uphold it by divining the "spirit of the Constitution" and amending it by judicial diktat in full disregard for the constitutional prescription for amendment in Article 5.
A citizen petition to repeal the 16th Amendment and abolish the personal income tax, in accordance with Article I, Section 9 of the U.S. Constitution and the original Federalist Papers.
A citizen petition on behalf of our Constitutional and national sovereignty requesting that our elected leadership -- the President, House of Representatives and Senate -- support measures to terminate all participation by the United States in the United Nations, terminate any and all U.S. taxpayer-funded support for the UN, and prohibit American Armed Forces from serving under the command of the United Nations anywhere in the world.
A petition to redress the anti-American petitions and ad campaigns sponsored by Hollywood and academic Leftists ostensibly objecting to the U.S. military campaign against terrorism following the unprecedented attack on our countrymen September 11, 2001. This petition collected 25,000 signatures in its first day and now has more than 100,000 signers.
We, the people of these United States, rightfully petition our President, House of Representatives and Senate in affirmation of the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."
A citizen petition calling on President Bush to commute the sentences of both former Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean, and their colleague, former Sheriff's Deputy Guillermo Hernandez; asking Congress to insist that the DEA prosecute Mexican national Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila on felony drug-distribution charges; and demanding that Congress and the Bush administration secure our borders.
A citizen petition to urge the United States Senate to reject the 1997 United Nations Kyoto Protocols Treaty purporting to address global warming by constraining economic growth in the United States while allowing unmitigated growth in 129 other nations, included two of the largest world economies in China and India.
Given the present Senate impasse over the President's judicial nominees, it must be said that this debate is not about a "looming Constitutional crisis" -- we are in the midst of perhaps the most serious Constitutional crisis in more than a century.
President George W. Bush has launched his second term with plans to reform entitlement programs and limit the growth of government spending. We affirm his agenda and call upon the President and congressional conservatives to revisit the principles upon which they were elected: Constitutionally limited government, a strong national defense, the prospect of restoring fiscal discipline to government, and an unwavering commitment to the traditional moral bedrock of our Republic.
A citizen petition to affirm the Second Amendment to our Constitution, requesting that the President, our Representatives and Senators reject legislation to renew the 1994 Clinton-Feinstein-Schumer gun-control law scheduled to sunset on 13 September 2004.
A citizen petition on behalf of Lt. Col. Allen B. West, U.S. Army, who was indicted in 2003 on criminal assault charges for the psychological intimidation tactic he used to acquire vital intelligence from a captured enemy combatant in Iraq -- intelligence that saved the lives of American soldiers facing imminent attack.

Local artist, musician and President of Rocky Neck Art Colony, Karen Ristuben attended the Berklee in Gloucester show at The Gloucester House on Thursday (10/25). Here's what she had to say about it:
Jazz as much needed medicine, my table-mates and I agreed. On Thursday Oct. 25, The Jim Odgren Quintet energized the Gloucester House with two fabulous jazz sets. On smoking alto sax, Odgren led the band through a tasty array of be-bop, ballads and straight-aheads from Evans to Coltrane. Young guitarist Lucian Gray defied finger speed records as he sailed over the fret-board relaxed, cross-legged, confident, superb. On keys, Davis Whitfields' understated, elegant renderings and his composed countenance belied his young age. And rhythm section, student Roberto Giaquinto on drums and Berklee professor and bassist Dave Santoro were unflappable and inspired.
It was an evening all too rare in Gloucester these days, with the Latitude 43 jazz nights gone and no other Cape Ann jazz venue in sight apart from the Franklin Cape Ann's excellent regulars.
This Berklee series, a worthy benefit for young Gloucester music students, gives us great players, a listening room where you can actually listen, and the welcome chance to get inside the healing relief of live jazz.
NOTE: After the storm we'll announce the next show. You won't want to miss it. There's some cool Halloween entertainment happening this week. Check out the live music schedule for Gloucester and Cape Ann here.

Hi all
I got a noob question as I am a begginer in java and new to the forum! I bet its a simple matter but it seems to trouble me
so I got this String say "123,456.78" which I am trying to store inside a Double but I am getting a numberformatexception. the programm will understand the "123456.78" string but not the one with the thousand seperator!
I guess one option would be to get rid of the "," but I would like this to be clever and depend on my local/regeional setings, so regardelss of the decimal/thousand symbols the program to be able to understand that the above string can be a Double.
any advise/guideline?

Freshman defender Conor Qualter has been named the Northeast Conference Rookie of the Week on Monday, it was announced by the NEC. Qualter and Blue Devils remain undefeated in league play, posting a 4-0 record heading into a week which will see them play three home games.
Central hosts Yale on Tuesday night, and then returns to league play on Friday night hosting St. Francus U and Sunday on Senior Day vs. Robert Morris.
Qualter had another impressive game as the CCSU defense posted its seventh shutout of the season in a 1-0 win over St. Francis Brooklyn on Friday night. The shutout is the seventh in the last 10 games for CCSU, and its second straight in league action.
Qualter and the back four of the Blue Devils thwarted several scoring chances by the Terriers with its solid defensive presence. The Blue Devils haven't allowed a goal in league action in the last 229:16, a span of over five halves.
Qualter is now a two-time NEC Rookie of the Week selection.
All three home games this week can be seen live on www.NECFrontRow.com.

Home Fragrances
At Guerlain, the art of perfume and the art of living have always gone hand in hand. In 1900, women perfumed their gloves as well as their handkerchiefs and décolletés. One's fragrant trail followed every movement as a sign of refinement and good taste. Guerlain home fragrances reveal their personalities in several candles and an Eau de Lit. A very elegant ritual.
Les Parisiens
The Les Parisiens collection is composed of exclusive re-editions of fragrances belonging to Guerlain's heritage at the demand of their fans, who couldn't bear the thought of going without them, along with two contemporary fragrances inspired by the famous gentleman burglar Arsène Lupin.
Les élixirs Charnels
Guerlain created Elixirs Charnels like invitations to feminine sensuousness. These five fragrances focus on olfactory pleasures and are endless propositions of different identities for contemporary women. This is the very magic of these alchemies created by the Guerlain House Perfumer to celebrate refined and sophisticated sensuality.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
With last week's launch of Star Wars: The Old Republic, many folks' imaginations have been opened to the idea of space-themed MMOs. In today's Coyote's Howling, we opine that the fantasy genre "needs a well-deserved rest". See if you agree and then leave us your ideas in the comments.
Still, during this time of hunger and wanting, our eyes will wander to the future and we'll begin to glance longingly towards the next MMORPG that promises to be released; even if that game fails to realize that only one thing can save our beloved genre from the watered down grave that developers have been digging for it: Every new online game has to be based in SPACE.
Read more Coyote's Howling: Beam Me Up, Please.
Because in space no one can hear you……preen.
Thank you again Coyote.......you hit the spot....not that an elf would have a spot of course !
Holy crap, my day is made. Thanks.
/sneaks off to check out Train Simulators
I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil
Han Solo and testies.
Well played.

I am fairly new to the mmorpg genre, but I am finding that I do prefer fantasy over space, perhaps if space where brighter and less techies, but then how does that work? Space combat on horses? Maybe not, I just remember how much I enjoyed the rolling hills of Azeroth, and Northerend, the music, the various creatures and birds, marveling at that lvl ?? Alliance player roaming around, catching an occasional duel, all while completing quests, gathering materials, and just kind of out in the wilderness on my own adventure but not alone, and not thinking man this place is dark, it never was, it was just a great place to escape to. Tech worlds have to much in common with the hustle and bustle of life as it is today.
Made me think of this.

Loaaadss of ways to do it without including.... space dragons -_-
I'm a huge Star Wars fan. I'm a classic Star Trek fan, too. However, I don't consider myself a sci-fi fan. I'm sure this makes no sense, but other than the two brands above, I don't yearn for the futuristic setting.
I am, however, getting sick of elves. But I do prefer the fantasy genre. There is just something more romantic when it comes to a warrior and his sword. I don't mind the guns etc, so long as there are a muiltitude of melee weapons.
I'd like see a blend of both genres to be honest. Try to think of Masters of the Universe. You have fantasty-like characters with swords, shields, armor, bows, magic, space ships, laser guns, tanks, creature mounts, and castles.
SWTOR isn't my kind of space game, but otherwise, I completely agree. Except for the parts about irradiated personal bits! Let's hope for the advanced sci-fi art of built in shielding on those pistols instead.
...but let's face the facts - there are really only two types of MMORPG: Those that contain "space" and those that contain "dragons"....
I don't mean to be nitpicky but isn't that statement a little simplistic? There is room for other game genres that don't have to involve elves and dwarves. I know that the offering now isn't great, but Fallen Earth is sci fi, but not in space, and I would definitely try a Fallout MMO game if there ever were one. Also, This wasn't an MMO but Red Dead Redemption was a good RPG that could make for a fun genre too... although it might kind of cater to a small target.
I don't think that the problem is with the genre of Fantasy at all. I think it's that the developers coming up with so called fantasy games have stopped using their imaginations and pretty much stamped out clones of each other, not necessarily all based on Wow either but just think, if you're a mage in one game, you might likely play a mage the same way in another fantasy game. They haven't come up with new ways to represent the fantasy genre is all and so on the point of giving it a rest, it might be a good idea.
Don't get me wrong I'm a big fan of SWTOR, though I still haven't bought it (soon).. I just still enjoy a good fantasy game too, just not a clone-based one. I'd much rather play several hours in Skyrim instead.
THAC0 - wait.. lower is better? I want to roll higher.. but lower is better?
I agree, let the Dragons and Elves have some time off.
A dragon by any other name will burn as brightly.
What's so hard about figuring out THAC0?
From the D&D wiki:
THAC0 (/?θæko?/, thack-oh) is an abbreviation for To Hit Armor Class Zero (0). To calculate if a hit succeeds you would take the AC of the target and subtract it from the attacker's THAC0, then roll a 20-sided die; if the die rolls equal to or higher than the calculated number, the attack hits. That is, THAC0 − AC = roll needed to hit.
Fighter classes have the best THAC0 progression and spell users have the worst. Lower THAC0 is better, since you have to roll equal to or higher than the to-hit number.
Crap, just turned into this guy:
A man is his own easiest dupe, for what he wishes to be true he generally believes to be true...
Heh more Coyote fun, thanks:)
On a serious note, i hope so. More space sci-fi would be a treat in the coming years.

ShadowRun (the RPG), a mix of cyberpunk and fantasy always held a place in my heart. There's really no need to choose when you can have both.
Shadowrun was the best . i dont play it anymore but when i did i loved how sci-fi/modern was blended with fantasy. Makes for a great variety of chars.
my favorite is the WoW advert right in the middle of the article.
Also very funny. And I agree
Ea is like a poo fingered midas ~ShakyMo
Nice one Coyote...
Been lookin for a kickarse space based MMO since TR failed to live up to that & tanked - none out there atm :(P
Ones I'd luv ta see/play:
And NO elves, dragons or flippin Jedi allowed either!
Babylon 5 - The Station itself would be an awesome starter area & quest hub if all station crew were NPC's and players could chose from savory races such as Minbari, Narn, Centauri, Vree, Drazi, or Human. For classes there'd be Ranger=Starship Trooper style, Soul Chaser, Psi-Corps agent to spice up the normal smuggler, spy, & assassin roles.
or how bout Dune... enjoyed the old desktop game a lot and would be way cool to be a Fremen or a Mentat!
Loved reading it as usual, but you cant be serious about the Elves?? To whom you will be giving the pointy ears in future mmos?? You cant have an mmo without pointy ears!!!!
Minus 1 point to Mr. Coyote for that remark
So a 8/10 to you
How about a real old school property like a Logan's Run MMO... lots of Runners, lots of Sandmen, a blasterific good time.
Nice read, as always.
Don't forget to check out Vendetta Online, a premier space combat MMO available on Android:
" Or worse yet, we risk making it so mainstream that it loses that special place in our hearts that we've always held for it as it is becomes dumbed down in order to generate mass appeal".
I think this happened ages ago...
One of the better howlings even if there are other things besides space and fantasy. If all games suddenly became space games instead we would tire of them fast as well.
There are so many possible historical MMOs we could play as well, from the stone age to the Vietnam war. Not to mention genres like Cyberpunk and steam punk.
MMOs easily get stuck on some ideas, all mechanics must be the same and you can only have a few types of setting, all combat must have a healer and so on. Those things are as annoying as elves.
i think your wrong op!! its not either space or fantasy we need!!! i say we need 10 years of realism in our mmo's!! im not saying lots of spread sheets or really complex game mechanics, im talking seemless transition truely inovative imaginitive development!! we need a games developer to think for them selves and stop copying what aready works MONEY WISE!!!! we gamers do not care how much money a games developer makes or how many people play a certain game, these things are not the be all and end all of an mmo and it does not define our choice in what we play!!!
hang on!!! do we really play games because every one else is playing them !! or do we have our own minds ?
we have no choices we either have to play mmo fantasy games or well mmo fantasy games, there are a few exceptions such as eve online as an example and mortal online. i mean come on !! whats actually diffrent about these games in comparison to games such as wow and lotro. its as the op said!! no bloody elves !!! mortal may have dragons but i havnt found any yet. but mortal does have a slight realistic feel about it and so does eve online. ive played the whole wow thing and lotro thing ive been an elf and slew a few dragons too. cast magic spells and ran instances and raids and its really really really samey and boreing!! im fed up with it!! so i started to play eve!!! ........ 6 years later with eve as my only game that i play ive started to realise that the games available to people are not even half the games they should be and could be!! im not useing eve as a bench mark but the freedom eve offers to the player!! the sheer scope of the play style customisation that the game gives to the player is just astonishing. unlike other games, in eve your not restricted to a single class and you dont have to grind through a tedious quest chain following a somewhat long dull and boreing story that doesnt allways make sence!! no no in eve you get to make your own story!! its just like living in the game!! sure some people take it a bit to seriously and end up treating it like a job while others have managed to find the fine line between work and play in eve!!
i think all games should strive to bring a fuller and more complete and open ended experience to the players.
there is nothing more disgusting in an massive multiplayer online game!!! than an mmo that isnt persistant and has an ending!! mmo's should not have end game!! they never used to have!! its the children from the console era thats brought around the end game scenario within mmo's and its definately ruined the industry!! the developers today are too young to know any diffrent and all they have to go on are the games they have available and what their bosses use as their companies bench marks!! and thats exactly why all games play feel look and mimic wow.
people have no idea that wow is sub par and not really a good game!! its just the best game available to them at present, namely because developers are more interested in a fast profit than they are in a qaulity lasting product!! the last great game to leave the mmo genre was starwars galaxies. it was huge deep emersive and envolving. it was complex enough to make you think and challangeing enough to make you group with other people !! and the world was pretty and fairly persistant. well in terms of player houseing and planetary events.
to improve on swg and to truely create an epic game they must be of the following stats -
seemless transitions
no loading screens
full of new and old ideas
no main quest chain or story arc driving you
no hand holding quests
truely exploreable game world with things worth finding
an active ingame dev team which constantly changes things in the game to give a feeling of world life (we pay to play, so they should earn the money we pay them)
no help screens or ticket systems! ( must be ingame mods with the power to fix and solve issues)
interactable objects
player vehicles houses towns shops and cities completely free form type control.
a vibrant and living economy ( not the silly auction houses you are all accustom too)
and effort with some imagination!! no more of this copy paste bullshit we are seeing.
we ahve allplayed wow lots of people like it because they havnt experienced better!!! but many people dont like it that have played better and know wow is just a marketing ploy! its meant to take your money and trick you ento enjoyment and it does just that!! games like wow are rushed out the door to turn a quick buck!! once the game starts to do bad!! as we have all seen it gets revamped and rereleased just like wow and lotro and sto have been!! again just examples of fail games that have managed to get a second chance and in wows case a third and fourth chance!!.
im going to bring you back to eve online again!! this game gives you expansions and updates and maintence and ingame help round the clock ! and all you have to do is pay a one off monthly fee!! if you know how to play eve the game is designed to be free. i play eve for nothing because i know how to make the game work for me. eve also offers far far far more than the wow and its clones too. im very surprised it doesnt have a huge population!! infact i know why its because eve isnt over advertised like wow. eve doesnt ram its self down your throat and eve doesnt miss sell itself. again eve is just an example and one that i know pretty well. people will argue that eve and wow are not compairable !!! but they are!! its the style. one style is incredibly lazy and used to lure in unsuspecting players who dont know any better and one isnt. ill let you work out which is which.
i vote no !!!!!! to more wow clones.. for me that genre of mmo is dead and buried i will never ever play another wow clone and that puts swtor directly off my list as thats just another wow clone. same idea same plan same style same game type.. its a sure thing and developers know it!! you all will pay through your arses untill your bored and then you will stop!! just like you did with wow. the game offers nothing new or inventive there is no ingenuity and if we really want the fourth pillar lol!!!! we can go play icewind dale or baldurs gate for that!! or even kotor 1 and 2. swtor is just an embarresment to bioware forced upon them by a bad decision when they sided with EA. the result is yet another wow clone. all that hype and anticipation for another dissapointment. 5 years of it too lol. such a waste of time.
bring back swg please!!!
Really fun read and several good one liners.

When Acting Mayor William Whitty took office after Edward M. Lambert's resignation last month, Whitty was expected to assume a caretaker role, holding down the fort without making substantial change until the next duly elected mayor takes office in January.
Apparently, the City Council president has other ideas.
When Acting Mayor William Whitty took office after Edward M. Lambert's resignation last month, Whitty was expected to assume a caretaker role, holding down the fort without making substantial change until the next duly elected mayor takes office in January.
Apparently, the City Council president has other ideas.
Whitty took the highly unusual step Tuesday of vetoing City Council legislation, in this case a unanimously approved change to the city's zoning ordinance. Some understandably perturbed council members such as Alfredo Alves, Linda Pereira and Brad Kilby said they could recall very few cases of a mayor vetoing the council.
"I found it very strange that Whitty did this," Alves said.
"I just feel frustrated with this," Pereira added.
"I was totally blindsided by it," Kilby said. "To be vetoed like that, I think was the wrong thing to do."
Whitty, himself, acknowledged that he could remember no such instances of even an elected mayor vetoing the council. Lambert only used the option once in his 12 years in office. The council overrode the veto.
The legislation in question was instigated by citizens group Save our Neighborhoods. It would alter the zoning ordinance in several ways: New housing units outside the central business district would be required to have onsite parking; special permits instead of variances would be used to exempt historic properties that do not conform to zoning laws; and nonconforming buildings left vacant for two years would not be granted a new use greater than its previous use.
The council, with Whitty presiding, unanimously approved the changes Oct. 23 and Nov. 13. Whitty abstained from voting and did not engage in discussion leading to the vote. His first remarks on the proposal came in his veto letter, which he submitted as the 90-day deadline for a proposal to become law expired, precluding the council from attempting to override.
In explaining his actions, Whitty said the legislation amounts to "piecemeal amendments to the city's zoning ordinances, which contain flaws that require further review."
True, the city's zoning ordinance does need to be examined and overhauled, but the repairs have to start somewhere. A piecemeal approach to reform is better than no reform at all. Enacting the changes contained in the Save our Neighborhoods proposal would not preclude future mayors and councils from further amending the ordinance.
If Whitty had objections to the proposal, he should have voiced them on the floor of the council before a vote was taken. Instead, he waited until his was the only voice that mattered.
Whitty will occupy the sixth floor for just more than another month. Is he going to treat his position as the caretaker role it is intended to be, or is he going to use the position for one last grasp of power before leaving public office?His actions so far are certainly cause for concern.

Double Bass as Solo Instrument?
Nicolas Antoine Taunay (1755-1830): Concert dans les galeries du Palais Royal
pletely clear that solo performance on the
largest of the bowed string instruments is not
the principal reason for its existence.
The question must undoubtedly be answered "Yes!" The extensive solo literature from several centuries on its own justifies this answer. However, examination of the quality of this material sadly yields the perception that the great composers, apart from a few exceptions, have not been particularly drawn to create compositions such as concertos, sonatas, etc. for double bass solo. There are no Mozart or Beethoven sonatas, no works by Schubert or Schumann, still less a concerto by Mendelssohn, Dvorak,
So perhaps the question should rather be whether the double bass makes a good solo instrument. A committed adherent of the instrument would like to answer "Yes" immediately, and to cite the great virtuosi of the past and their phenomenal success. But in the first place, even these had their off days when they were not so very convincing – thus, for example, it was reported in 1802 in a review of a performance by Johann Matthias Sperger of two concerti that he had "delivered more than can be expected from an instrument that is not built for playing solo". And then there is the fact that only a tiny percentage of players are capable of shining as solo performers, so this can hardly taken as evidence for the suitability of the double bass as a solo instrument.
Why for example did Bottesini, who had excellent contacts with the greatest composers of his time, not incite them to create solo literature for the double bass? Perhaps because he himself was not interested in other people´s compositions? (He played exclusively his own pieces, which he had written to suit his capabilities.) But perhaps also because it would not have been interesting for the composers if nobody other than Bottesini had been able to play the works.
Much has changed since then. Bottesini´s pieces, which were for a long time considered virtually unplayable, are now almost a standard element of courses at music universities. There is an abundance of recordings of practically the whole double bass solo repertoire, more new works are being written for the instrument than ever before – and still the double bass is not established on the concert platform, and remains a curiosity as a solo instrument.
Niels-Henning Řrsted Pedersen (1946-2005)
jazz (and electric bass playing as well!) has undergone a dramatic transformation since the days when a bass solo could be recognised from the fact that there was nothing to be heard besides the typical hi-hat beat except some sort of low rumbling noise. Of course, modern amplification plays a significant role here, but
the principal reason is that many jazz bassists have established themselves by means of their tremendous skills.
So what are the differences between solo playing in jazz and classical solo performance?
1. The plucked jazz bass sounds fuller, more "bassy" than the bowed double bass, which usually has a nasal quality in its sound, something rough and brittle, and also has little carrying power.
2. Jazz bassists are often much more unconventional in their technique. As impro-
vising musicians, they are not oriented to any studies or Etudes, but rather to
their own imagination, and to top-class melodies. Anyone who wants to play Charlie Parker´s "Donna Lee", for example, has to think about the real aim of the exercise rather than about what is possible.
3. The jazz bass does not have to play high the whole time. It can present itself as what it is, and thus shine in every register.
I believe that the classical double bass is just as much capable of development as the jazz bass. However, this will depend on a fundamental discussion of the musical requirements, playing techniques, and many of the accepted practices.

Oscars to 'Argo,' Lee in peculiar night
The Academy Awards 'Argo' wins best picture as 'Lincoln' nets Day-Lewis his 3rd leading actor award
It's a far better thing to have good movies and bad Oscars than the reverse. So no one need complain that some great movies weren't honored at Sunday night's presentation of the Academy Awards - though some of the academy's choices may go down as among the most peculiar in recent memory.
In a turn of events few anticipated a month ago - though by Sunday night it had seemed inevitable - "Argo" turned into the big winner at this year's Academy Awards, picking up the best picture among its three Oscars. First lady Michelle Obama, on a teleprompter from the White House, announced the honor.
Jennifer Lawrence won best actress for her charming performance as a young widow with redemptive qualities in "Silver Linings Playbook," in what has to be one of the most difficult-to-comprehend academy choices in recent years. She triumphed over competition that included Jessica Chastain in "Zero Dark Thirty" and 86-year-old Emmanuelle Riva in "Amour."
Much better was the choice of Daniel Day-Lewis, who won best actor for his extraordinary performance in "Lincoln." Day-Lewis' win, his third, was the closest thing to a shoo-in going into the night. He is the first actor to win three Oscars in the lead category. In accepting the award from last year's best actress winner, Meryl Streep, Day-Lewis made a funny remark, saying that he and Streep had done a "straight swap" three years earlier, that he had been originally intended to play Margaret Thatcher and she to play Abraham Lincoln. The swap worked out well for them both.
Picture-director split
This year saw a rare split between best picture and best director, if only because "Argo" director Ben Affleck wasn't nominated in the category. Instead the prize went to Ang Lee for the visually rich but dramatically inert "Life of Pi," which picked up four Oscars. Steven Spielberg, who directed "Lincoln," had gone into the evening as the perceived front-runner.
Christoph Waltz, who dominated Quentin Tarantino's "Django Unchained," won his second best supporting actor award - his previous Oscar was for his performance in another Tarantino film, "Inglourious Basterds."
Anne Hathaway, as expected, won best supporting actress for her performance in "Les Misérables," one for which she lost weight, cut her hair and sang-sobbed "I Dreamed a Dream" into a camera over and over, until just the right balance between singing and sobbing had been achieved.
Momentum for 'Argo'
The first clear sign that things were going in an "Argo" direction came when it won best editing. By the time it won best adapted screenplay, the handwriting was on the wall. That Oscar had seemed "Lincoln" screenwriter Tony Kushner's for the taking. On a happier note, Tarantino won a much deserved best original screenplay award for "Django Unchained." He thanked his actors and talked about how he hoped his work would be remembered 30 and 50 years from today. That's probably a safe bet.
Foreign film, no surprise, went to that unimpeachable provocation, "Amour," by the always challenging and sometimes mischievous Austrian director Michael Haneke. The Scottish adventure "Brave," from Disney's Pixar animation unit, was named best animated feature. Pixar films have won seven of the 12 Oscars since the category was added.
In addition to best director, "Life of Pi" won Oscars for cinematography, original score and remarkable visual effects. "Anna Karenina" won the one award it clearly deserved, for costume design. "Les Misérables" won best makeup - remember all that rotting teeth? Pure artifice.
Seth MacFarlane turned out to be a respectable Oscar host, anarchic and occasionally quite funny, and yet urbane in a way that somehow feels necessary for this show. But he was probably not to everyone's taste. Surely everyone will agree, however, that among the night's highlights was the song "Goldfinger," as sung by its originator, Shirley Bassey. It came in the midst of a tribute to James Bond's 50 years as a franchise. Bassey, at 76, still has the pipes and brought down the house. She received a standing ovation, the first of the night and probably the most sincere.
Sad day for academy
Before we say goodbye to Sunday night's ceremony, it really should be said that this was a sad day for the academy. Instead of giving best picture to "Lincoln," a masterpiece, or to the innovative "Zero Dark Thirty," or the audacious and inspired "Django Unchained," the academy went back to its old ways and honored something good but unremarkable, Ben Affleck's third-best film, "Argo." Instead of awarding best actress to Emmanuelle Riva for her searing work in "Amour" or Jessica Chastain for her nuanced, pressure-cooker performance in "Zero Dark Thirty," it gave the prize to pretty, charming Jennifer Lawrence - for being pretty and charming in "Silver Linings Playbook." And instead of giving best supporting actress to Sally Field or Helen Hunt, who gave performances in complicated roles, in which they had to interact with other actors, the academy honored Anne Hathaway, for singing a song into a camera.
These are more than you-say-potato-I-say potahto expressions of preference. As much as one can tell the day after, these are mistakes people will look at for years to come, embarrassments to history. Together they made Sunday night's Oscars one of the more interesting in recent years, but a little painful to witness.

Post subject: Alien BBQ Beef Mac and Cheese
Alien BBQ Beef Mac and Cheese
Hold on to your young'ns and call out the Calvary. Finally, a dish that everyone will love at your next barbecue. Slow cooked smoked Mac and Cheese with steak. I have three teenagers in my house and a wife who is a gourmet cook; they all love this dish and it will be a hit at your next outing.
I took the love that everyone seems to have for macaroni and cheese and mixed in a BBQ flare. Imagine smoked cheese with barbecued steak and onions in a creamy sauce with a hint of heat from diced peppers. Almost like a Philly cheese steak on pasta.
Prep time is 30 minutes and cooking time is 1 ½ hours @ 250 degrees.
Feeds 10 – 12 people.
1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream (1/2 for cooking and ½ as a finishing sauce)
¼ cup Butter
1 can Cheddar Cheese Soup
3 Eggs
8 oz Pepper Jack Cheese
32 oz Extra Sharp Cheddar (2- 16 oz. packages)
¼ cup Sour Cream
16 oz Elbow Macaroni
3 Greens from 3 stems of Mexican Green Onions
1 lb Sirloin Steak (cut into thin strips)
Start by placing a pot of water on the stove and heating till it boils. While the water is coming to a boil, prepare the rest of the dish for the smoker.
Place the steak in the smoker and allow it to cook while you are preparing the sauce. This will give each piece of meat a slight smoked flavor and really add a depth of flavor to the dish.
Slice the Pepper Jack and Cheddar cheese into strips, Use ½ of the cheddar cheese (1 – 16 oz package) for the initial part of the dish. Save the other 16 oz package for the final topping. Finally, add in the diced Mexican onion greens.
In a disposable pan (this stuff is sticky) place the greens, cheese, and butter together. Move this pan to the smoker to allow the butter to clarify and the cheese / onion greens to meld together. Stir the melted product to insure consistency of flavor in the dish.
By now your water should have come to a boil (approx 10 minutes.) Place the pasta in the water and allow it to cook for approximately 20 minutes until it comes to a boil again. Once the pasta had come to a boil (it's not done yet) remove from heat and sit to the side. For something different, try using the colored pasta wheels if you want the kids to join in the fun.
Return to the smoker and remove the cheese and steak from the grill.
Slice the steak into strips and set them to the side.
Drain the pasta and add it to the cheese and onion greens. Stir until the ingredients look smooth.
Add ½ cup of sour cream, ½ cup of heavy whipping cream and the eggs to the mixture slowly (this will prevent the cream from becoming shocked and curdling.)
Pour in the can of cheddar cheese soup and stir until smooth.
Once the mixture is smooth, add in the steak and mix thoroughly.
Return the pan to the smoker set at 250 degrees and allow it to cook (without foil) for approximately 30 minutes.) This will allow the dish to pick up additional smoke flavoring. After 30 minutes, foil the pan and continue to cook.
Cook an additional hour before removing the foil. When removing the foil for the last 30 minutes of cooking, be sure to stir the dish before adding any other ingredients.
Place the other package of sliced cheddar cheese on the top of the dish and return the dish to the smoker.
When the dish is done, remove from the smoker and add ½ cup of heavy cream. Slowly, fold the cream into the dish until the desired creaminess is achieved.
Many times Mac and Cheese can be very salty, so I suggest that you salt the dish to taste at the end of smoking instead of in the beginning. I like my Mac and Cheese a little spicy, so I added a couple of shakes of chipotle salt to mine before serving. If you feel that you must salt during the cooking process, I suggest ½ tsp of GPS (garlic, pepper, and salt) as a start.
The dish is a meal in itself. The richness of the cheese complemented by the steak and peppery taste of the pepper jack cheese will make this a favorite of kids and adults.

Well that looks very tasty Michael!
Thankfully there are no young-uns to hang onto at my house these days!
And while I must admit that recipe looks great, I'm not so sure on your definition of "everyone".
How about those folks on a low-fat, low carb, vegetarian meal plan?
J/K of course- those people probably never hang out at the smoke ring!

Philly cheese steak on pasta I have to do this one.
Except , (for my daughter only)
I have to use Montery Jack instead of Pepper jack cheese, (hot sauce on the side for me).
Looks like a winner.

To my wife, Mac & Cheese is her "Holy Grail"... she is constantly on the quest to find the perfect Mac&Cheese recipe.. She's tried so many recipes that I have actually told her that she'll never find the perfect M&C.
Myself.. If I never ate it again, I'd be happy... Then again.. I'd be satisfied with the boxed stuff..
BUT THIS!!!!... this looks like it could be the "Holy Grail" of M&C.
As for diet food, any M&C doesn't really qualify. Might as well make it taste great.
Thanks. I'll have to pass this to the wife.

Props again Allien, I did this for a birthday party and for a Super Bowl party and it was a huge success.
As is usually the case the second time I made this I had to improvise as I realized that I had no heavy cream, I substituted one jar of roasted pepper alfrdo sauce for the cream and proceded. IMHO it came out much better with the alfredo sauce. I also added some smoked maple bacon that I had smoked at the same time and diced up.
Thanks again for the recipe.

WOW Thats looks good. I've been itching to try to make a kicked up mac & cheese. Recently, I've seen 2 different shows on the food network that was about mac & cheese. One was Throwdown with Bobby Flay where he made (along with the woman he was challenging) an awesome M&C dish. His was 5 cheese and her's was 7 cheese. The othert show was Tyler's Ultimate.
Now I see this thread. I Love the idea of adding the steak and cooking it on the smoker. Great, great great idea. I'll be bookmarking this thread!!

Alien, I made this recipe for the first time this weekend, it was spectacular. One of the guys at work was bringing in some smoked tri-tip for the group, and wanted people to bring in sides, well now I had to uphold my reputation, but it had to be a side dish, so voila, and everyone at work loved it, I was still getting kudos on it the next day.
