Meen's song topics are varied and are usually quite mordant and sometimes critical of the political climate in Lebanon.

The color which is fixed on the fabric as a result of chemical action between mordant and dye is frequently very different from that of the dye itself.

The Babylon Gene
Forget everything you think you know. Here is the mother of all conspiracy thrillers, a secret that was written in blood at the dawn of history...
2004: when violent Jihadists bomb a Masonic lodge in Istanbul, the Turkish military enlist maverick British agent Toby Ashe to find the cause of the attack.
Hurled into a tense race against the CIA to solve an intelligence puzzle encompassing genetic research, a covert SAS mission, the true origins of Freemasonry, and the strange disappearance of the leader of a Kurdish mystical religion, Ashe must travel the globe in pursuit of answers.What if the invasion of Iraq was nothing to do with WMD?
What if America wasn't motivated by oil, or regime change? What if the world's largest superpower was driven by a desire to find something far more dangerous - a viral weapon passed down through history...
Explosive, fast-paced and brimming with expert knowledge of everything from Freemasonry to genetics, Christian mythology to military tactics, The Babylon Gene takes the conspiracy thriller to a whole new level.

UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School, Dublin
Tuesday 21 December 2010
Age: 20
History: The MBA has been offered by UCD since 1964, one of the first institutions in Europe to do so. Dr Michael Smurfit, a philanthropic Irish businessman, gave the college a donation to open a graduate business school in Blackrock in 1991, when the full-time programme was launched.
Address: Carysfort Avenue, Blacrock. Co. Dublin - 3km (1.9 miles) east of the main UCD campus and 8km (5 miles) south of Dublin city centre, 500 metres from the sea.
Ambience: The main building – previously a teacher training college – is Victorian. Smurfit's gift paid for a major renovation, so the building is fitted with Irish oak panelling, Portland stone walls and marble floors. Facilities include dedicated syndicate rooms, technology-enhanced classrooms and lecture theatres, a large networked common room, dedicated computer labs and now a state of the art library, housed in the former church adjoined to the convent.
Vital statistics: Around 1,400 students (up to 1000 full-time) including 160 post-experience executive MBA students. There are about 40-50 enrolled on the full-time, one-year MBA (30-40 per cent international).
Added value: Career-orientated, with an experienced international intake and small class sizes. The dedicated MBA career management centre matches the needs of businesses to Smurfit graduates. Another draw is the school's location in historic Dublin.
Easy to get into? Work experience is the most important factor. In general, students need a university degree or equivalent, a strong GMAT score (the 2009 average is 605), two references, and a minimum of three to five years' work experience.
Glittering alumni: Tony Garry, Chief Executive, Davy Stockbrokers, Liam Fitzgerald, Chief Executive, United Drug and JP Donnelly, Group Chief Executive, Ogilvy Ireland.
Gurus: Prof Pat Gibbons, Jefferson Smurfit Professor of Corporate Planning , Prof Niamh Brennan, Michael Mac Cormac Professor of Management, Director of Academic Centre For Corporate Governance, Prof Eamonn Walsh, Pwc Professor of Accounting, Prof Bill Roche, Professor of Industrial Relations & Human Resources.
International connections: The school is proud of what it calls its "world perspective", driven by a global network of 30,000 alumni across 55 countries.
MBA exchange programmes are available to CEIBS, China and IIM, India, Stern & Pepperdine USA and Nanyang Techological University Singapore.
Student profile: MBA students are typically aged 30 with seven years' work experience. International students make up more than half of the MBA class and are from 22 different countries. A third of the students are female.
Cost: It's €29,500 for the full-time MBA, but many scholarships are available.
Who's the boss? Professor Tom Begley is dean, and the MBA programme director is Orla Nugent.

Patrick Burke speaks about players lending support to You Can Play Project for gay athletes
Mar 4, 2012, 11:59 AM EDT
By now hockey fans are familiar with the story of Brendan Burke, son of Leafs GM Brian Burke. Brendan was the first man in hockey to come out to his team as a homosexual while working as a coach at Miami University. The acceptance shown to him by his team and his family was a heartwarming story for all who have fears of doing the same and where the You Can Play Project gets its starting point.
You Can Play is getting support from a number of NHL players and showing their support through a PSA you'll see later today on NBC's game of the week between the Bruins and Rangers. Patrick Burke is a scout for the Philadelphia Flyers and one of the co-founders of You Can Play and Burke tells PHT that the aim of the project is to make the locker rooms and arenas safe for gay athletes.
"We're trying to raise awareness of the issues LGBT athletes face. I don't think enough people are aware just how hard a locker room can be on gay athletes of all ages," Burke says.
Filming a PSA that features Patrick and his father Brian along with 12 NHL stars helps serve notice that the league is serious about breaking down the barriers for those that want to enjoy sports. Featured in the spot are Rick Nash, Claude Giroux, Scott Hartnell, Joffrey Lupul, Dion Phaneuf, Corey Perry, Andy Greene, Duncan Keith, Daniel Alfredsson, Brian Boyle, and Henrik Lundqvist. That's a lot of fire power and there's more help on the way.
"We've got 35 guys committed to the filming so far with 30 guys I believe now have been filmed," Burke says. "We're hoping that as other guys see the PSAs and see what we're all about that more and more of them will find ways to get involved to show their support."
It won't be easy at the start, and we've seen instances this season where the kind of language they're hoping to eliminate from locker rooms is out there, but with what the You Can Play Project is trying to do, Burke says their aim is to teach and not vilify.
"We're about education. We're not about anything else. We're not about punishment or vilifying or making enemies. We're just here to show people what the issues are and how best to combat them," Burke says.
So it's like teaching through kindness then?
"Yeah… Well, we're still the Burkes so we'll drop the gloves if we have to."
Here's video of the PSA you'll see during this afternoon's tilt between the Rangers and Bruins. You can read up more on the You Can Play Project at their website or follow them on Twitter.

Nice job! I look forward to seeing this ad on TV and I hope it pays off league-wide and nation-wide.

Nice PSA. Now if Burke can only find some players who "can play" for the Leafs.

It is incredibly telling that pro-hockey is the first to jump on this train. These are the type of things that makes hockey more accessible to the public, showing that to achieve competitive victory, your abilities are what matters. It is a damn shame that the top three sports in the United States can't find a way to send a similiar message, they're to busy worrying about playing games in London, steroids and guarranteed contracts.
- superross - Mar 6, 2012 at 2:04 AM
I think in 2012 being a gay athlete shouldn't be an issue. However Leafs fans should stay in the closet!

Section 7(1) states "The function of the Trust is to manage and control and make improvements to the Ground at its discretion."
In 2003, following the signing of the Management and Indemnity Deed between the Melbourne Cricket Club, the Melbourne Cricket Ground Trust and the Treasurer of Victoria, the MCC is contracted to manage the MCG until 2042.
Under the terms of the Deed the MCC has the exclusive rights to manage the MCG in accordance with the terms of the Management and Indemnity Deed.

New York can't ban extra-large sodas, rules judge
Supreme court justice rules Michael Bloomberg's proposed regulations 'arbitrary and capricious'
|Report an Error
Share via Email
A judge on Monday invalidated New York City's plan to ban large sugary drinks from restaurants, movie theatres and other establishments, one day before the new law was to take effect.
State Supreme Court Justice Milton Tingling in Manhattan ruled the new regulation was "arbitrary and capricious" and declared it invalid, after the American Beverage Association and other business groups had sued the city challenging the ban.
The decision was a blow to Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who had touted the ban as a way to address what he has termed an obesity "epidemic." But beverage manufacturers and business groups had called the law an illegal overreach that would infringe upon consumers' personal liberty.
A spokesman for Bloomberg's office was not immediately available for comment.
The ban had prohibited the city's food-service businesses from selling sugary drinks larger than 16 ounces, though city officials had said they would not begin imposing $200 fines on offending businesses until June.
Bloomberg has made improving the health of New Yorkers part of his legacy. The soda ban had followed similar crackdowns on fat, sugar and salt and a smoking ban that has been replicated around the world.
In anticipation of the soda ban, Bloomberg on Monday released new data tying sugary drinks to the city's fattest neighbourhoods. The new city study that showed nine of the neighbourhoods with the 10 highest obesity rates were also the highest in sugary drink consumption. At the other end, the three least obese neighbourhoods were also the lowest in sugary drink consumption.
Companies like Coca-Cola, PepsiCo and McDonald's Corp had argued that the ban was inconsistent in its application, since it would still permit grocery and convenience stores to sell the drinks in any size.

There's no doubt that climbing stairs is an extremely effective way to burn calories. According to the 2011 Compendium on Physical Activities, stair climbing expends approximately 9.0 METs. (A MET, Metabolic Equivalent, is a unit of measuring energy output from physical activity; 1 MET = 1 calorie/kilogram (of bodyweight) per hour and is the amount of energy expended while sitting at rest.) Walking at a comfortable pace is approximately 3.3 METs, which means that running stairs can burn about three times the number of calories as going for a walk for the same amount of time.
If you're looking for a fun and challenging way to kick your workout up a notch, try this stair-running workout, which can be done indoors or outside. In many parts of the country it's been a long, cold winter, but as the weather warms up, it's always nice to step out of the gym and exercise in the fresh air and sunshine.
The length, height and steepness of the stairs will influence the level of difficulty. When starting out, use a set of stairs that takes about 10 to 30 seconds to run up. From there, you can increase the distance or number of repetitions to increase the intensity of your workout.
3-5 minutes of toe-taps, jumps and light stair running
Run every step up, walk down – repeat 5-8 times
Run every other step up, walk down – repeat 3-5 times
Run laterally every step, walk down – repeat 3-5 times each side
Run steps in a crossover pattern (right leg in front of left) – repeat 3-5 times each side
Cool down:
Stretch calves, hips and quadriceps

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
N.W.T. political leader objects to posting chiefs' salaries online
YELLOWKNIFE - A political leader in the Northwest Territories says there are concerns over the federal government's new law requiring the salaries of First Nations chiefs be posted online.
Dene National Chief Bill Erasmus, who is also the Assembly of First Nations' regional chief for the Northwest Territories, says his people are not opposed to the concept of accountability and transparency.
However, he says the problem is that the federal government's new legislation is "an imposition" on First Nations' governments.
The federal government's legislation required First Nations to submit their financial statements by Tuesday.
However, by Wednesday evening, the website where the public is supposed to be able to access that information had none from any of the 22 First Nations in the Northwest Territories.
Late last week, Bernard Valcourt, minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada, issued a release reminding First Nations of the requirements and saying chiefs and councillors "are encouraged to submit the documents as soon as possible."
Valcourt also noted First Nations were already required to produce annual consolidated financial statements as part of their funding agreements with the federal government; only the requirement to publish them to the Internet is new.
But Erasmus said the new rule "does not support good governance."
He said in the Northwest Territories, bands have followed their own financial standards, adding that information such as salaries has been shared at community, regional and national meetings.
"The chiefs are committed to being accountable to their people, not to the federal government or the public," he said. "The funds we receive from Canada are not taxpayers' money, they are Indian consolidated funds through the treasury board based on our treaty relationship with the Crown.
"The way that the bill is designed puts First Nations financial entities ... at a disadvantage because the information requested by AANDC could be potentially sensitive and detrimental to their future business capacities."
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation had been pushing for the salaries to be made public since 2009.
Colin Craig, prairie director of the CTF, said people were frustrated by the money being spent on reserves and then not being disclosed.

Good news, bad news in Pittsford budgetBy Bruce Edwards
Staff Writer | November 23,2013PITTSFORD — A surplus in the town's general fund is dwarfed by an expected increase in highway spending, the Select Board was told this week.
The board received an update from Town Manager John Haverstock on a draft 2014-15 municipal budget.
Haverstock said the good news is that with existing revenue projections and level funding, there would be a $7,500 surplus in the general fund.
He said the "trouble spot" is the highway budget. To do the work that needs to be done for the coming fiscal year, he said, there is a shortfall of $150,000 to $160,000.
That picture could change if the town receives a grant from the state Agency of Transportation. While the town is due for a paving grant, Haverstock said, there's no guarantee it will happen.
If the grant does come through, he said, "that would solve the problem immediately for this year."
Turning to the water and sewer funds, the town is in good shape when it comes to the water fund. The problem is the sewer fund, which Select Board Chairman Allen Hitchcock said continues to run a deficit of $25,000 a year.
"The water system is paying for itself and has been, but the sewer has been losing money for years," Hitchcock said. "We adjusted the rates but we haven't hit it quite right yet and we're going to have to adjust them again, which means they are going to have to go up."
Tax sale planned
The Select Board was also briefed on a delinquent tax sale scheduled for Dec. 17.
Haverstock said about a dozen properties are on the list. He said discussions have been held with half the property owners with the goal to get the town paid before the sale takes place.
Based on the last tax sale two years ago, Haverstock said he expects most property owners to either make arrangements to pay their delinquent taxes prior to the tax sale or within the one-year redemption period.
Overall, tax receipts are running ahead of last year, which the town manager said may seem surprising given the sluggish economy over the last five years.
"I think maybe in tough economic times the first thing people do is make sure their mortgage is paid up," he said, "and the mortgage is the process by which most people pay their taxes, through escrow."
Selectman Hank Pelkey said the delinquent tax problem has dropped considerably in recent years. He credited the threat of a tax sale with property owners paying their taxes on time.
Library funding
Trustees of the Maclure Library asked the board to increase the town's contribution from $10,000 to $12,500 a year.
Trustee Dan Shea told the board the library is well used and provides a service that goes well beyond that of a library. He said a number of groups use the library throughout the year.
The library also puts on many of its own programs, he said, including summer reading for children and an adult book club and discussion.
"The bottom line our library is really like a community center," Shea said. "It's an active place."
He said an average of 10 to 20 children can be found at the library after school every day.
Shea said the library held nine fundraisers during the year to make up for a shortfall in the budget.
The school also has some maintenance issues. "It's a nice building, but it costs us a lot to keep that thing going," he said.
He said contributions made by Omya were a big help.
Based on a recent informal suggestion of Bob Harnish, a library trustee, the town added $10,000 to its proposed budget. However, Haverstock said the town would entertain increasing its contribution by $2,500.
The extra money didn't appear to be a problem for Pelkey, who said the library has become, in effect, a baby-sitting center and teen spot.
"In fact, the town gets a pretty good deal for the money we spend," he said.

Debbie Bertlin for Mercer Island City Council
Debbie Bertlin is endorsed for Position 7 on the Mercer Island City Council.
MERCER Island City Council needs an infusion of energy, perspective and community awareness. The Seattle Times editorial board endorses challenger Debbie Bertlin for Position 7 over incumbent Ernest "El" Jahncke.
Four City Council races are on the ballot, but only Jahncke, on the council since 1999, has an opponent.
A cast of players in local government have been caught up in the emotional and legal tangles of a sexual-harassment case that cost the city more than $1.2 million in settlements and legal fees.
Bertlin represents a fresh start. Bertlin has a compelling civic résumé built around her young family and community ties that go back to Mercer Island High School. Her education and work as an executive for Microsoft and Oracle have taken her around the world — and back to Mercer Island.
Bertlin can focus on local topics ranging from parental accountability for teen drinking to managing the impacts of new transportation options across Interstate 90. She can help Mercer Island decide how best to proceed on municipal infrastructure issues, from a fire station to a swimming pool.

ArcheAge recently, but it's nothing too serious until Trion announces a launch date (or at the very least, a no-wipe date). I'm still trying to figure out a main, and all four races have something to recommend them. The Elves are probably my least favorite, followed by the humans. The Firran are slick, but to be frank I preferred them before they were westernized or whatever you call it.

Arifa Akbar: Don't listen to the lipstick feminists
The week in books
Friday 19 August 2011
I remember going to the launch of one of Shere Hite's sex surveys which focused on female desire, and being stunned not by what she said but by how she looked. She was heavily made-up and wore a spray-on dress with precipitous heels. It looked like a book launch that could burst into burlesque at any moment. I was studying French feminism at the time and had tortured debates on whether Hite was a lipstick feminist or if she was cleverly illustrating Simone de Beauvoir's theory that femininity was a performance.
Reading Catherine Hakim's Honey Money: The Power of Erotic Capital, this week, I was reminded of that moment. She is an academic at the LSE who advocates that women use their sexiness strategically at work and in their relationships, as it is their unique advantage over men (who, she suggests, are hungrier for sex than women). She also works with the conspiracy theory that while some feminists urge women not to use their looks to get ahead, this is really playing into men's hands as it they who have put this notion out there in order to sideline a powerful asset: "It is not surprising that many young women regard feminism today as irrelevant," she concludes.
Yet her brand of feminism is based on a need for acceptance by any means necessary. Where I was in awe of Hite, I'm discomforted by Hakim. Let's leave aside the fact that erotic capital is a currency that women have long traded in, mostly out of a lack of other options. Let's also leave aside the fact that there is already a hysterical focus on women's body image (from its pornification in mainstream advertising to the unattainable ideal in fashion, to the sexualisation of young girls in the consumer industry). It seems as if Hakim is urging women to use sexiness as a weapon against men (and possibly other "fat" or "ugly" women). Hakim has examples that equate sexiness with success: the beautiful sister who does better in life than the dowdy one, Michelle Obama, Christine Legarde, the French MD of the IMF, for whom fitness is apparently more important than getting enough sleep. We are supposed to believe in the equation Hakim draws. Yet isn't it shallow, to draw the comparison between a commercial version of beauty and success (which surely should be defined by high levels of happiness and contentment)?
Period dramas like Mad Men remind us that women in the workplace did not gain their advantage by flashing décolletage or wearing pretty outfits, otherwise the impossibly curvy Joan would have got further than the dowdier, more successful Peggy. Nowadays, a women who sexes up for work may not be taken as seriously in the boardroom. Hakim concedes this, though she presses on with her argument. Nicola Horlick, the fund investment manager who famously juggled the care of six children with her career, speaks of a kind of glass-ceiling for women who rely on erotic capital - it will get them so far: "I think it is very important to dress well and to look smart at work... Thereafter, women must be totally professional and seek to be judged on their skill and worth to the organisation. I have seen women progress by other means, and this may have helped them to make progress in the short term, but they have generally failed in the long term. This is because they did not have the respect of colleagues."
What is depressing about erotic capital - which Hakim will discuss next month at the Southbank Centre, is that it reduces feminism to economics. The suggestion is that women need to use all they've got in our straitened times. It is a market-led theory - a Capitalist Feminism.
Caitlin Moran, the columnist and author of How To Be A Woman, says such "capital" is akin to trickery: "The rule I have in my book to see if sexism is happening is "Are the boys doing it? Fairly obviously, men are not having to be sexy [in order] for women to get on at work, and that's because the balance of power still rests with men, and women basically have to "trick" men into their fair share of the money/power with such things as sexiness.
"I would say you're working in a company that's not really operating at its full potential if women are only getting ahead because they're being successfully, effortfully and expensively sexy... I mean, what kind of tuppenny ha'penny organis-ation is disabling 52 percent of its potential brainpower in favour of only listening to the chicks who have nice legs?"
"Why not champion femininity rather than abolish it?" Hakim asks, reminding me of the eccentric theories of the French feminists I studied. They talked about female sexuality that was essentially distinct from men's and urged women to talk with their "lips" (the labial variety). I wonder what Dr Hakim would make of that.
Shortlist for Muslim writers
The Cairo-born author, Bahaa Taher has been shortlisted for the Muslim Writers Award (sponsored by Penguin). His book, 'Sunset Oasis', despite being set in colonial Egypt amid the embers of failed uprisings and disenchanted antiheroes, provides a trajectory that traces Egypt's past with its most recent uprising, and Mubarak's trial. As one of the best-read contemporary novelists in Eygpt (he won the first International Prize for Arabic Fiction) his readership is spreading well beyond the Arab world. The shortlist also includes the Iranian writer, Shahriar Mandanipour as well as Aamer Hussein, Farahad Zama and Roopa Farooki.
A night with a poetry whore
A 'Brothellian Movement' for poetry has been growing apace in recent times, originally conceived in Brighton and quickly spreading across America and Europe. Timothy Grayson, host of the UK Poetry Brothel, explains that it is a mix of "poetry, burlesque and debauched entertainment". The point, he says, is to sex poetry back up so that it resembles the status it held in the Romantic Age. For clients willing to pay extra, there is a personal service in which a Madame will lead them to a 'poetry whore' of choice declaiming original poems. Each show is themed: the last was called Belshazzar's Feast, while the next major event, opening on 27 August in Leicester, is the decadently named Gomorrah. It includes"all manner of Caligulan delights", promises Mr Grayson, as well as an enormous range of poetry. Like the touring show, The Theatre Brothel, which takes place in unexpected spaces, this too has an edge of the illicit, and it is a wonderful way to enliven the performance aspect of poetry.

This Jan. 25 2013, photo shows the Sea Crest Health Care Center in the Brooklyn borough of New York, still unoccupied after it had to be evacuated after Superstorm Sandy.
The nursing home's executive director said his staff had drilled for evacuations, but the facility's detailed plan assumed patients would be removed before a storm, not during a power outage. In Superstorm Sandy's wake, health experts and regulators are warning that thousands of nursing homes nationwide are still ill-prepared for a natural disaster. The late October storm was the latest in a string of disasters to reveal gaps in emergency planning, despite an industry-wide effort to improve preparedness in the years since Hurricane Katrina.

Pregnant and Engaged Celebrities
Are Unmarried Pregnant Women Still Stigmatized?
When a very pregnant Kate Hudson announced her engagement on the Today show, she was very nonchalant about it, saying: "I felt the announcing thing was just so silly . . . I was just waiting for someone to notice!" While Kate seems like a laid-back person, and this is, after all, her second marriage, I couldn't help but think that she's playing the engagement down because she's pregnant. You'd think that with as far as we've come with being open about sexuality (does anyone still question if coupled-up celebs are having sex?) that having kids without being married would be a nonissue. But even Natalie Portman didn't announce the baby before the ring, and would they have been engaged that early in their relationship if she hadn't been pregnant?
This got me wondering if the responsibility of having a baby together is just a catalyst for speeding up a marriage that would have happened eventually, or if women still feel pressured to be in a committed relationship — i.e. married or engaged — before having children. Do you think society still looks down on unmarried pregnant women?

Peter S. Quinn
If I Could Fly
If I could fly
I would go to the river
And never become dry
From thoughts of the truest giver
And I would be of earth
A flower or a tree
Its beauties wholesome worth
Each way you could see
If I could swim the sea
I'd be like oceans whales
For always and always free
In my own abyss fairytales
And become its conqueror
Through deeps of the faraway
The skill fullest adventurer
In my own swimming play
If I could give a thought
That would become reality
I'd start with what I ought
And shouldn't permit to be
For ways are always returning
You gave some insight clue
And we from it all are learning
Of whether it is all true

Even if you're someone who's not exactly football (or sports) inclined, a slew of new additions and improvements in Madden NFL 13 ensures the annual franchise's latest offering justifies your money's worth. However, (as is the case with the majority of sports games as of late), is it yet another example of "same s***, different year?"
If you're connected online, it's going to take you a few minutes to actually reach the game's menu screen (god damn EA and Origin), as is to be expected with EA titles nowadays. Once you're there, though, all of the game modes available are neatly tiled around the screen, and even shows how many users are currently playing online.
Madden NFL 13 certainly has a lot to offer. Ultimate Team mode returns yet again, allowing players to create their "ultimate team" with an in-game trading card system. Sounds strange, I know, but invest some time into it and you'll find that there's more to this game mode that meets the eye. Also returning is Madden Moments Live, where players can relive the most exciting moments from the real NFL season as they happen. Each week EA will bring the most intense scenarios of the week to your fingertips at the expense of Madden Coins, which can be earned by playing online or purchased with real-world money.
As you've probably realised, all I've talked about so far are returning game modes. So what's new, you ask? Connected Careers is the most notable addition to Madden NFL 13, combining all the elements of Franchise, Online Franchise, Superstar mode and NFL legends into one neat gameplay option. What this means is that players can choose to begin their career as either a player or a coach, paving their own way to greatness. Whether you want to create a new player or coach and work your way up from scratch, resume the career of any current NFL player/coach or embark on a career with a rookie version of an NFL legend, Madden NFL 13's got you covered.
The depth offered within Connected Careers is almost enough to warrant another game in itself. The central "News Center" hub simulates a list of stories as the player progresses through their career, and even possesses a fictional Twitter feed of some of the game's most notable players and personalities. Career stats are also readily and easily available for the player to view. Players must traverse through the NFL schedule by completing the weekly "checklist", to earn experience points to spend on their player.
There's a variety of options to spend your points on, such as ball carrying, toughness and elusiveness. Experience can also be earned by completing weekly goals and milestones, all varying in difficulty, adding further incentive for players to stray out of their comfort zone in order to get the most of the Connected Careers experience. The new Connected Careers mode and XP system within is a breath of fresh air to the game and will provide players with tonnes of replayability.
The gameplay and audio improvements are also noteworthy – mainly the improved passing system and commentary from popular NFL broadcasters Jim Nantz and Phil Simms. Passing controls have been tweaked, allowing more accuracy than ever - your quarterback can now launch the ball onto the back shoulder of your receiver, should you so choose. EA has also implemented over 430 new catch animations and various moves for quarterbacks to avoid the passing rush.
Meanwhile, the commentary from real NFL commentators in Jim Nantz and Phil Simms won't have you scrambling for the mute option, like a lot of other sports games. Over 82 hours of unique dialogue from the two keeps the game feeling fresh, and whilst you'll inevitably hear the same line more than once, it's great to hear consistent interaction and comments from Nantz and Simms during numerous on-field events.
However, as is always the case, Madden NFL 13 is not without its flaws. Aside from the new Connected Careers mode and many gameplay tweaks and additions, it's ultimately not that much of a step up from Madden NFL 12. Whilst it's been improved in all aspects, particularly visually and audibly, if you're happy with last year's offering, then stick to that. If you're looking for an updated experience with even more to give, then Madden NFL 13 is for you.
If you're not too familiar with the NFL, the game's probably going to feel a little daunting, at least at first. There are a huge amount of different tactics to wrap your head around, and the control scheme will take a while to fully master. Unless you're personally invested in the sport, you're probably not going to be able to get the full experience out of Madden NFL 13.
Whilst Madden NFL 13 doesn't offer a whole lot more than its predecessor, those with a keen interest in the sport will take a shining to EA's latest offering. There's a wide variety of modes to partake in and Connected Careers provides a unique and fun reason to keep playing the game. If you're someone who doesn't know a whole lot about the NFL, you inevitably won't enjoy it as much as hardcore fans, however Madden NFL 13 is still definitely worth checking out.

"Not a whole lot different to Madden NFL 12"
The_Boss said: Disagree when u said "Not a whole lot different to Madden NFL 12" this new Madden NFL game feels very different from previous Madden NFL games.
Probably this score (7.5) will be appropriate score to NFL newcomers or people unfamiliar with the American Football sport code but for Madden veterans like me (1994-2012) this is 9.0 for me.

barters81 said: Wow! Good feedback. Was thinking of getting a Madden game for the first time in a few years.
The only thing that stops me is I think this would be awesome on the WiiU. Infant when the wiiU was announced I automatically thought of 2 game pads playing madden.

Um.... not to mention a WHOLE NEW PHYSICS BASED COLLISION ENGINE.
Thanks for taking the time to review the game though mate. Better late than never.
