Egypt's top military commander vows army overhaul
Egyptian soldiers in Sinai 370.

CAIRO - Egypt's most senior military commander has promised better training and more modern weaponry for the army in an apparent effort to satisfy officers' demands for change, which have multiplied after an uprising last year.Commander-in-Chief General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, who is also the defense minister, was appointed by the country's first Islamist president Mohamed Morsi only last month and is under pressure to shake up a military which until recently had held the balance of power in Egypt for decades.Addressing troops last week during the first military drill in a series to mark the 39th anniversary of the 1973 war with Israel, Sisi reassured troops that change was on its way despite the fact that the drill was being conducted using old arms like the Soviet BM-21, a rocket launcher in use for 40 years."We will devise a comprehensive program that develops real training for the forces in all military branches to maximize the performance of individual officers and soldiers during my time here," he said, according to a live recording of his speech obtained by Reuters.Addressing troops participating in the drill, which took place along Egypt's western border with Libya, Sisi, 57, acknowledged that Egypt's military capabilities trailed those of other armies.The army would replace some of its arsenal within 3-6 months and was working to extend the range of a missile system known as "Saqr" to 45 kilometers, he said."Regarding the status of our military equipment, we may feel that some of it is modest but we must work with what arsenal we have. We will not be able to change all of our hardware completely. What we can do is achieve the highest standards of shooting and efficiency. This will compensate for the modest equipment we are gradually trying to replace," he said.Egypt receives $1.3 billion in military aid annually from the United States but officials say that is not enough for the country to keep up with rivals such as Israel and Saudi Arabia. Officers have said the US money benefits American arms manufacturers as it forces Egypt to buy outdated weaponry.Comments may be related to growing unrest in Sinai Sisi's comments appeared to be aimed at army officers who have said they view Egypt's revolution - which toppled veteran autocrat Hosni Mubarak last year - as their own chance to win better salaries and improved conditions and training.Sisi is also under pressure to tighten up security in the Sinai Peninsula, a desert area which borders Israel, and to crack down hard on Islamist militants operating there.President Morsi sacked Sisi's predecessor, Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi last month along with other senior military and police officials after an attack blamed on Islamist militants killed 16 Egyptian border guards in the area.Israel, which has repeatedly urged Egypt's new rulers to tackle the Sinai problem is looking on nervously and is uneasy that Egypt is now being governed by Islamists.

Sir, - If the myth of creation in Genesis were a "historical account", aDuncan Reeve claims in his response to John Ruffle<
href="/80256fa1003e05c1/httppublicpages/75b7ddeb4d71bc57802571950042bcf7?opendocumentLetters, 23 June), then obviously there could be no possibility ohomosexuality, fornication, or adultery before the Fall. Sexual expression foAdam and Eve would have been limited by their unique circumstances.
The issues surrounding sin and sex, however, like the saying attributed tJesus (Matthew 19.4) that God made all humankind male or female, are not asimple as Mr Reeve seems to believe. That is why, if we are to be responsiblin our discipleship and we are to be taken seriously by the world, Christianhave to listen to psychiatrists, among others, in order to speak intelligentlabout human sexuality.
There is no reason to suppose that psychiatrists are "probably biased" (nmore so, anyway, than some Christians); but certainly they are fallible. Salso are all interpreters of the Bible fallible. If they were not, then thewould all agree with each other, and we should not be enduring the presendivisions in the Church. But then neither would we be challenged to use ouGod-given intelligence, flawed as it is, to interpret his unchanging wilafresh for every generation.
No doubt all Christians would agree with Mr Reeve that we need divinguidance to do this; but many of us would not restrict the authentic guidancof God to our own understanding of the Hebrew or the Christian scripturesChristian discipleship is more complicated and more demandinCHRISTOPHER TOOKEY47 Drake RoadWells BA5 3LE

Kristen Stewart Not Pregnant; Couple Already Planning Marriage and Family?
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Kristin Dian Mariano | November 28, 2012 5:08 PM EST
Once again, Twilight couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart shook the press yesterday as rumors swirled that the young sweethearts are expecting their first born.
GossipCop cited a source close to the on screen and off screen couple who denied all the rumors and there is no absolute truth on the stories.
The source also said that Kristen Stewart was very happy on getting back together with Rob and is already planning the future with him.
OK! Magazine ran a story yesterday that the Rob and Kristen are expecting their real life Reneesmee months after they got back together following their tragic break up due to Kristen's cheating scandal last summer with her "Snow White and the Huntsman" director Rupert Sanders.
The mag also reported that the pair is already planning a "lavish nursery" for the child, and wanted to raise the kid in England. The report also cited that Kristen is "begging" Brit actor Rob to marry her before the baby is born.
However, neither Stewart nor Pattinson has commented on the rumors.
Some people find the story ridiculous as Kristen is only 22 years old and at the height of her career as an actress being the highest paid actress in Hollywood this year.
Other people think that this is the couple's way to secure each other and to prevent another incident of infidelity in the future.
On the other hand, their "Breaking Dawn Part 2" co-star Toni Trucks think that Rob and Kristen will be good parents.
Trucks told Hollywood Life, "If you are judging by the movie than they would make wonderful parents I mean they have a fierce group of friends who will protect them and their baby! So I think they would be good with kids."
Rob and Kristen just arrived in Los Angeles after they spent Thanksgiving weekend together in London with Robert's family. This proved that the couple is officially back together and is not a front act for the promotional activities of the final Twilight film, "Breaking Dawn Part 2".
It seemed that Kristen finally received the forgiveness she was waiting for from Rob's family. Initial reports said that friends and family of Robert Pattinson wanted him to break up with his girlfriend Kristen Stewart.

New material from the upcoming Beatnuts + Alkaholiks collaborative album, Liknuts, with "Bang".
The most anticipated track from Xzibit's Napalm gets leaked.
Awesome. Directed by James Wade. Filmed at Real Results Gym in Las Vegas.
Daaam! New video of the title track off of J-Ro's upcomming EP Pay The Price. Directed by I Suppose. Nice.
Before King Tee took The Alkaholiks under his wing, they were known as E.S.P., which stood for Educated Street Poets. This was around 1991 or so. Presenting another one from the HHS cassette archive, we present you the Liks original E.S.P. demo tape, which would eventually lead to "I Got It Bad Ya'll". The rest [cont.]
It's been 10 years since Catashtrophy dropped Rap Life and a lot has changed. No longer is the west coast a powerhouse in the music industry. The same can say for former Liks label, Loud Records, who has now been out of business nearly as long as it has taken for Tash to drop another [cont.]
When gangsta rap was ruling the airwaves and the charts, there were few from the west coast that didn't follow the trend. The Alkoholiks were part of that few. With E-Swift on the boards and J-Ro and Tash on the mic, "Tha Liks" carved out a sound all their own in the early and mid-90′s [cont.]
While The Alkaholiks return minus a few syllables (please now refer to them as Tha Liks). The trio's first LP in four-years, X.O. Experience, has a very familiar theme; which J-Ro elegantly reiterates on "Bullyfoot"—"keep it pouring motherfucker till it hurts to swallow." Though Tash & J-Ro's frat-boy exuberance still runs rampant, the groupÂ's return [cont.]
Once naming himself the dopest lyricist on the west coast, The Alkaholiks' Catashtrophe aka Tash aka Rico, hopes to prove that to the rest of the world with the release of his solo album, "Rap Life", coming soon on Loud Records. We sat down with him and entered the mind of one of the most [cont.]

Analysts believe Apple's new payment system could finally drive mass adoption of paying with phones.
Analysts have high expectations for 32 companies in the S&P 500 that they say will trade at least 20 percent above their current levels.
Sean Lyons, a 23-year-old bike messenger, divides his time between three different on-demand delivery services.
Discussing the challenging retail landscape and who provides the best value in the sector, with Thomas Stemberg, co-founder and former CEO of Staples.
Some of Wednesday's midday movers:
Aug 20- Staples Inc warned that its sales could fall in the current quarter as it sells fewer computers and core office supplies such as ink, toner and paper in North America amid stiff competition from online retailers and big-box chains.
Aug 20- Staples Inc reported better-than-expected quarterly profit and sales, driven by strong demand for non-core office supplies, such as furniture and breakroom items, from companies in North America.
Aug 20- Staples Inc warned that its sales could fall in the current quarter as it sells fewer computers and core office supplies such as ink and toner in North America amid stiff competition from online retailers and big-box chains.
Aug 20- Staples Inc's quarterly profit fell 20 percent as it sold fewer computers and core office supplies in North America. The largest U.S. office supply retailer said net income fell to $81.9 million, or 13 cents per share, in the second quarter ended Aug. 2 from $102.5 million, or 16 cents per share, a year earlier.
Retailers make up about two thirds of the 20 most shorted companies announcing earnings this week. Here's the "short" list.
Markets are more likely to get a schooling on the labor market than a road map for rate hikes when the Fed meets in Jackson Hole in the week ahead.
Often, consumers will end up losing more money on a private-label retail card than the average credit card, according to a report.
Google and Barnes & Noble are joining forces to tackle Amazon, zeroing in on a service that Amazon has long dominated: fast, cheap delivery of books.
Aug 5- Office Depot Inc warned of weak sales this year as stiff competition from online and mass retailers erodes sales in its North American retail business. Office Depot and Staples Inc have seen their U.S. sales decline as online retailers such as Amazon.com and mass retailers like Wal-Mart Stores Inc attract shoppers with lower-priced offerings.
Staples Founder and former CEO Thomas Stemberg discusses which retail executives today are the ones to keep an eye on for the future.
Over the next 25 years, as technology increasingly revolutionizes retail online and in stores, leaders will have to adjust their skills.
Retailers have been trying to get a fresh read on the consumer and can't afford to sit back and wait for consumers to get out of their funk.
Visa Checkout is the latest effort to make the company relevant in a world of digital payments, reports Re/code.
Some of the names on the move ahead of the open.
Staples said it will end a program with the U.S. Postal Service to set up mini-post offices in the company's retail outlets.

Wheat beer with a touch of camomile
Dominus Vobiscum Blanche
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Dominus Vobiscum Blanche
3 stars out of 4
Where to buy: LCBO
Price: $4.60/500 mL bottle
Food pairings: Semi-soft washed rind cheeses such as Migneron de Charlevoix; fresh chevre cheese; poached salmon.
The verdict: A great summer thirst-quencher from one of the best craft breweries in Quebec.
There are few things more refreshing on a summertime patio than a tangy, spritzy Belgian wheat beer.
Fortunately for Ontario residents, an outstanding example has just arrived in the province as part of the LCBO's summer seasonal beer release.
Dominus Vobiscum Blanche is the flagship brew of the Microbrasserie de Charlevoix, one of the most-acclaimed craft breweries in Quebec.
The pale golden, hazy brew has a citrusy, floral aroma and a lovely rocky white head. The flavour is a heady blend of lightly-tart citrus, and a perfumed floral character. That latter note comes from the unusual addition of camomile flowers.
"Wheat beers can be really boring sometimes. They all taste the same because everybody uses the same ingredients, and we didn't want to do that," said Microbrasserie de Charlevoix founder Frederick Tremblay, who will be appearing at the Queens Quay LCBO Wednesday from 4 to 8 p.m. and the Summerhill LCBO Thursday from 4 to 8 p.m. Later Thursday, he'll be appearing at Bar Volo for his brewery's official Ontario launch.
Much of the wheat used in the beer comes from farms near the brewery, in Quebec's scenic Charlevoix region, an hour and a half northeast of Quebec City.
"Agriculture used to be much more important around here. The farmers who are still left have really started to focus on small scale, specialty things," said Tremblay, noting that the region is known for its artisanal cheeses, charcuterie, and now beer.
While Tremblay also uses the coriander seed and Curacao orange peel commonly found in Belgian-style wheat beers, it's the camomile that makes the brew stand out.
"We wanted something flowery and refreshing, and I think we managed to do that," said Tremblay, whose brewery started out in 1998 as a brew pub in the town of Baie St. Paul.
Eventually, Tremblay started bottling his brews, including a line of English ales known as La Vache Folle (the crazy cow). When it came time to name his line of Belgian-style brews, he faced a bit of a dilemma.
"In a lot of North America, people give something a French name if they want to show that it's Belgian style. In Quebec, that wouldn't really work," said Tremblay with a chuckle. Instead, he decided to use Dominus Vobiscum, a Latin liturgical phrase meaning "The Lord be with you."
"In Quebec, we only really stopped using Latin in church about 40 years ago, so this was a phrase that everyone would recognize, and I think people realize that monks made a great contribution to Belgian beer," said Tremblay, whose slogan on the bottle also has a religious-sounding twist. "May Charlevoix be within you."
Along with the Blanche, there will be more Charlevoix in Ontario soon — later this year, Dominus Vobiscum's Tripel and Dubbel Belgian-style strong ales will arrive at the LCBO.
"We're really really happy to finally be in Ontario. We've been trying for two years to get into the LCBO. We hope that people like it, because not too many Ontario brewers are making Belgian style beers," said Tremblay.

Beautiful Poster and Trailer for Anna Karenina Starring Keira Knightley
Keira Knightley looks like she might steal this show as Anna Karenina in the big-screen adaptation on Leo Tolstor's classic.
The first poster gives the impression of lavish luxury in ballrooms and snow and features Keira Knightly, Aaron Johnson, Jude Law, Alicia Vikander and Domhnall Gleeson.
"The third collaboration of Academy Award nominee Keira Knightley with director Joe Wright, following the award-winning box office successes "Pride & Prejudice" and "Atonement," is the epic love story "Anna Karenina," adapted from Leo Tolstoy's classic novel by Academy Award winner Tom Stoppard ("Shakespeare in Love"). The story unfolds in its original late-19th-century Russia high-society setting and powerfully explores the capacity for love that surges through the human heart, from the passion between adulterers to the bond between a mother and her children. As Anna (Ms. Knightley) questions her happiness, change comes to her family, friends, and community."
Also appearing along side the main cast are Matthew Macfadyen, Emily Watson and Olivia Williams supporting. Take a look at the trailer and beautiful poster below.
Anna Karenina will be in cinemas in the UK on 7th September and in the US on a limited release from 9th November.

Close to seventeen hours after the highly-anticipated pre-orders for the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus were opened by local telcos DiGi and Maxis, the experience remains exceptionally erratic. The Maxis Online Store remains inaccessible, while DiGi's one is a hit-and-miss affair. Eager customers are obviously not happy, venting their frustration at every available comment box online. Behind the scenes, both companies have been working on counter-measures to work around the issues faced.
Recently, LG announced that it has developed a 5.3-inch Full HD LCD panel for smartphones with what LG claims as the world's narrowest bezel at 0.7mm.
Viber appears to be the next instant messaging service to fall victim to the Great Firewall of China as some users are reporting that messages are not being sent or received. This follows recent news that Line, KakaoTalk, and Instagram are blocked in the country; yet, oddly enough, WhatsApp continues to be untouched.
Users who log into steam today will be greeted with news of the Steam Halloween Sales, detailing price cuts as much as 90 percent for a large amount of games. The Steam Halloween Sale is currently ongoing until the 3rd of November featuring a multitude of titles on sale such as Left 4 Dead 2, Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition and many more.
Razer's Chroma line is expanding with the introduction of the Naga Epic Chroma. Like the rest of the Chroma devices, it features the 16 million colour customisation option for those who want that sort of thing. The Naga Epic Chroma also comes with the same 12 programmable thumb buttons for gamers who don't want to use their keyboards.
Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, one of the original founders of The Pirate Bay, has been convicted of hacking Denmark's driver license database, as well as accessing the email of 10,000 police officers and tax officials. He currently faces up to six years in prison, and prosecutors are also pushing for a travel ban to prevent the Swedish national from entering Denmark.
Samsung has just taken the curtains off two brand new smartphones – Samsung Galaxy A5 and Galaxy A3, the full metal unibody smartphones from Samsung that you have been waiting for. They are both ultra slim and are touted to be "optimised for social networking".
MSI's newest gaming laptop will definitely raise some eyebrows as the company tries to fix a long standing issue with these kinds of machines. Installing a mechanical keyboard should, in theory, improve the experience of gaming on a mobile machine. With that being said, the new GT80 Titan will be a whopping 18-inch gargantuan.
If you're not already aware, two of the three major telcos in Malaysia started their pre-order campaigns for the brand new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus at 12.01 am today. If you were one of the many who stayed up late to get your pre-order in, you might have been a little disappointed to find the Maxis and DiGi online stores (and main sites) inaccessible as soon as the pre-order pages went live. Celcom's website remained operational, but that's simply because the telco opted not to open pre-orders, and instead had begun taking Registration of Interest (ROI) since last week.
At long last, they are finally here. The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are now available on pre-order via the Big 3 major telcos in Malaysia, and at the same time the official retail prices of each model of both devices have been unveiled.
The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus preorders for Malaysia will be starting later tonight (12am, 31 October 2014 to be precise), but it looks like the pricing has been unveiled by Maxis. The telco has just updated its website to show the full pricing and plans for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

The opening reception for Natalya Aikens' "CITY LINES" art quilts will be on Friday, May 9, at Etui Fiber Arts Gallery from 6:30 to 8:30 PM.
Inspired by New York City architecture, the series of quilts that make up CITY LINES depicts small alleyways, huge avenues, cracked pavement, glass skyscrapers, brick storefronts, vibrant graffiti, grand bridges and rusting fire escapes.
The works are made from 90% recycled materials; however, the recyclables used in Aikens' quilts have been transformed into sophisticated and beautiful images.
Aikens notes that her art is deeply rooted in her Russian heritage and the architectural imagery both of New York City and St. Petersburg. She couples this imagery with photo manipulation and delicate stitching together of recycled materials such as paper, plastics, and vintage fabrics.
Being an amateur photographer is in her blood, says Aikens: "Working on photographs in Photoshop enables me to transform the amateur photograph into a desirable element of my artwork."
One of her most important drawing tools is the sewing machine, and her hands. She explains: "…. hand stitching is my favorite way of expressing myself and adding visual texture to almost all my art,"

Civilian nuclear cooperation was an important item on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's agenda during his brisk summit-level diplomacy in September.
For reasons too obvious to need spelling out, world attention is currently focused on Gaza and the intolerably disproportionate use of force by Israel in return for rockets fired on Israeli towns by Hamas, an obnoxious militant organisation also deserving condemnation.
On Friday N.N. Vohra, governor of Jammu and Kashmir, delivered a speech in New Delhi that was notable for its lucid analysis of the inextricably interlinked external and internal security problems and a series of sound suggestions about how to meet the grim challenges this country faces.
Sudden the transfer of Gujarat governor Kamala Beniwal may be, surprising it certainly is not. Hers is a special case even among the politicians appointed as governors by the previous Congress-led United Progressive Alliance government whom the Modi government is determined to evict from Raj Bhavans.
However intense the hostility between them, all political parties in this country — particularly, the two mainstream ones, the Congress, now battered humiliatingly, and the Bharatiya Janata Party that has become the first to attain a clear majority in the Lok Sabha in 30 years — are alike.

Probe-tube microphone measures in hearing-impaired children and adults.
Boys Town National Institute for Communication Disorders in Children, Omaha, Nebraska.Ear and Hearing (Impact Factor: 3.26). 11/1988; 9(5):243-7. DOI: 10.1097/00003446-198810000-00003
Source: PubMed
ABSTRACT This study was designed to investigate the reliability of real-ear measurements of sound pressure level (SPL) and to compare these values with two coupler measures of SPL. A commercially available probe tube microphone system was used to measure real ear SPL in both children and adults. Test-retest reliability decreased as a function of frequency for both groups and, in general, was slightly poorer for the children. For both groups, coupler to real ear differences were larger for the 2 cm3 coupler than for the reduced volume coupler; however, no significant differences were observed between groups. In addition, a measure of ear canal volume was not found to be a good predictor of coupler to real ear discrepancies.

Article: Subjective effects of peak clipping and compression limiting in normal and hearing-impaired children and adults.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Despite many advances in hearing-aid signal processing, compression limiting and peak clipping are still used. To date, perceptual studies have been conducted only with adults. The current study was designed to investigate the clarity of peak-clipped and compressed speech for both adults and children. Subjects were 30 normal-hearing and 30 hearing-impaired individuals in three age ranges (7-9, 10-12, and 16-50 years). Stimuli were processed at 60, 70, 75, and 80 dB SPL using peak clipping and at 80 dB SPL using compression limiting. Paired-comparison measures were used to assess the clarity of sentences, and a signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR) based on a measure of coherence between input and output was computed for each condition. For the peak-clipping conditions, there was a decrease in perceived clarity as the input increased from 60 to 80 dB SPL. This perceptual continuum was most apparent for the normal-hearing adults. The normal-hearing 10-12 year olds and the hearing-impaired adults showed a similar, but less pronounced, pattern. In contrast, the remaining three subject groups showed minimal differences in perceived clarity across conditions. Surprisingly, only the two oldest normal-hearing groups showed a clear preference for compression limiting over peak clipping at the highest input level, and only their results were consistent with the pattern of coherence across stimuli. Judgments of clarity by the normal-hearing subjects correlated best with the SDR in the 500-2000-Hz range, while clarity judgments of the hearing-impaired subjects correlated best with the SDR below 1000 Hz.The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America 02/1999; 105(1):412-22. · 1.65 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: future. In the early 1970s there were no universal new- born hearing screening programs. The average age of identification of children with hearing loss was 3-3 ½ years. Early efforts to improve this situation were a registry to identify newborns who are at high risk for hearing loss and development of the Crib-o-Gram (Simmons and Russ 1974; Simmons, McFarland and Jones 1979). While both procedures improved the early identification of children with severe-to- profound hearing loss, lesser degrees of hearing loss continued to go undetected. Diagnostic procedures to quantify the degree and configuration of hearing loss in infants were limited to behavioral observation audiometry, which is now known to be unreliable and prone to tester bias. Body-worn hearing aids and FM systems were the devices of choice for the pediatric population, but FM systems were used only in aca- demic settings. Most hearing-aid circuits were linear peak clippers, fitting algorithms were based on adult data, and functional gain was used to verify aided performance. At that time, audiologists
Article: Impact on hearing aid targets of measuring thresholds in dB HL versus dB SPL: El impacto en la medición de los umbrales en dB HL o en dB SPL, en las metas de un auxiliar auditivo[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Audiometric measurements are traditionally made in dB HL, which by definition are specified relative to the sound pressure level (SPL) in a coupler. Real-ear dB SPL is then estimated by applying an average ear transform to the coupler value. However, individual variation in ear canal acoustics and variations in transducer placement strongly influence the dB SPL of signals arriving at the eardrum. In this paper, data from 1814 ears are presented, showing that the distribution of eardrum dB SPL for a fixed signal level varies across ears and across frequency by as much as 40 dB. The impact of this variance upon hearing aid targets computed with the NAL-NL1 fitting algorithm is examined by comparing the targets obtained from using an average transform with those obtained when audiometric data in dB SPL are obtained by applying individually measured real-ear-to-coupler difference (RECD) values to dB HL thresholds. The impact can be considerable. Sumario Tradicionalmente, las mediciones audiométricas se realizan en dB HL, que por definitión se especifican en relación con el nivel de presíón sonora (SPL) en un acoplador. Los dB SPL de oído-real se estiman, aplicando una transformatión promedio al oído, en relación con el valor del acoplador. Sin embargo, las variaciones individuales en la acústica del conducto auditivo y las variaciones en la colocación del transductor influyen fuertemente en las señales en dB SPL, que llegan a la membrana timpánica. En este artículo, se presenta la información de 1814 oídos, mostrando que la distribución de los dB SPL en el tímpano, para un nível fijo de señal, varía en los diferentes oídos y en las diferentes frecuencias hasta en 40 dB. Se examinó el impacto de esta variación sobre las metas en los auxiliares auditivos, estimadas con el algoritmo de adaptatión NAL-NL 1. Este análisis se realizó comparando los valores meta logrados utilizando una transformación promedio, con aquellos datos audiométricos en dB SPL, obtenidos aplicando individualmente las mediciones de la diferencia oído real/acoplador (RECD) a los umbrales en dB HL. El impacto puede ser considerable.International Journal of Audiology. 07/2009; 42(6).

God of War PS3 "Ascension" Bundle Arriving March 12th for $349
If you're thinking about picking up a Playstation 3, as well as the newest God of War game, "Ascension", look no further on March 12th than for this bundle.
It's officially called the God of War: Ascension Legacy Bundle, and yes, it will only be available in a limited capacity. The bundle will set you back $349, but for that you'll get every game in the God of War saga, a 500GB bundle, a 30-day trial to Playstation Plus, and a garnet red PS3 and controller. The first 5 God of War games ( God of War, God of War II, God of War III, and God of War: Origins Collection, comprised of God of War: Chains of Olympus and God of War: Ghost of Sparta) have been packed into one disc (or case), where as the sixth game, Ascension, will come in its own box.
"Ascension" is in fact a prequel, so in theory you could play it first and then move onto the included 5 other games. Sony is promising a whole host of enhancements in this new game, along with new mechanics and a new combat system.

Honestly, we came out of this one with no idea what happened.

Because "Barney's Great Adventure" is intended for children 6 years and under, I am writing this review to be read aloud.
Barney has his own movie. Not one of those videos you've watched a hundred times, but a real movie, more than an hour long.
If you like him on TV, you'll like him here, too, because it's more of the same stuff, only outdoors and with animals and shooting stars and the kinds of balloons people can go up in.
The main character in the story, after Barney, is a boy named Cody, who is in about the first or second grade in school. He's just at that age when children start to have their doubts about dinosaurs that look like large purple stuffed toys.
Along with his sister Abby and her best friend, Marcella, he goes to visit Grandpa and Grandma on their farm.
Cody doesn't think he'll like the farm, because his grandparents don't have cable TV, so how can he watch Nickelodeon? Plus, Grandpa's pigpen is directly below Cody's bedroom window.
But then Barney turns up. He starts as a little toy, and then he becomes about 8 feet tall, but looking just the same.
He sings a song named "Imagine" and tells Cody that it was Cody's own imagination that made the toy dinosaur become the real Barney.
Cody plays a trick. He stops believing in Barney. Barney disappears.
Then Barney plays a trick. He appears again, because he believes in Cody! That sort of makes sense.
Barney shows Cody a special wishing star. The star deposits an egg in Grandpa's barn. This is a wishing egg. It has different colored stripes on it.
When all the stripes glow, the egg is about to hatch. The kids take the egg to Miss Birdfinch to find out about it.
But the egg gets in a lot of trouble. It falls into the back of a birdseed truck and is hauled off to town.
Cody, Abby and Marcella chase it, and get to be in a parade and see the balloons go up. To get to town they ride a pony.
Barney must not know any new songs, because mostly he sings old ones, such as "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" and "Old McDonald" and "Clap Your Hands." It's sweet when Grandpa sings "Let Me Call You Sweetheart" to Grandma. Even though this is probably the first time you've heard that song, it's not new, either.
By the end of the movie Cody believes in Barney, because it's pretty hard not to believe in something that's purple and 8 feet tall and standing right there in front of you.
The egg hatches, and helps everybody have their wishes.
Baby Bop and B.J., Barney's friends on television, have small roles.
Baby Bop is always looking for her yellow blanket, which she calls a "blan-kee." Don't you think it's time for Baby Bop to get serious about learning to say "blanket"?
