Superheroism: Games Vs. Comics
Cover Story: Contemplating capes and plumber caps.
f the many similarities between games and comics, their characters share the most. Games owe a lot to comics, and in recent years, comics owe a lot to games (Batman, at least, has never been better). Though despite their shared themes, the concept of the superhero in games has taken a slightly different path than it has in comics, mostly because of the technical hurdles that faced games in the beginning, which ended up shaping how characters were created and ultimately remembered.
Heroes Emergent
The earliest superheroes in the golden age of comics were simple enough to understand: strong, handsome men who had fulfilling lives and could eradicate crime in about 10 pages. They were often young men thrust into their roles without much reservation, because there was always a bad guy or two that needed clobbering, and then it was back to assuming secret identities and living a "normal" life of being a newspaper reporter or a rich playboy. Superhero comics were a light, friendly alternative to many of the controversial comics that propagated for years beforehand: horrors of all stripes were being illustrated and told in comic books and captivated readers young and old, until eventually a moral high ground intervened and threatened their existence. Nevertheless, some of those ghastly stories would depict heroes, just ones of a different sort -- even the salacious tales of "real" crime needed a no-nonsense detective at their core.
Eventually, the action-packed superhero stories took over, but their worlds gradually changed, and maybe even borrowed some of the more adult aspects of their controversial competition. As the decades went on and comic series grew by several hundred issues, superheroes were given more than just an endless stream of ne'er-do-wells to fight: they faced drama in their personal lives; their enemies became smarter and more believably evil; and more often than not, they dealt with their inner darkness head-on, as we got to see them wrestle with their special powers emotionally as well as physically. Yet no matter what, they stayed heroes -- fantastic humans (or humanoids) who were generally good and gave us a side to root for. It may have taken a dozen-issue story arc, but they'd come out on top.
Video games are a younger medium, but once they allowed for actual characters to be rendered onscreen instead of just being relegated to box art, the path of the video hero started out in a similar way as those in comics, except they were anything but super. From squat carpenters and unlucky zoo keepers to amorphous doe-eyed blobs and faceless race car drivers, the archetypes of video game heroes in its "golden age" of the 1980s skewed more towards Merrie Melodies than Detective Comics. Much of that can be be traced to many games' Japanese origins, where cuteness was a commodity, and even the nation's best-known cartoon heroes had childish looks. Granted, Japan had more than their fair share of "grown-up" comics for years, but for video games, particularly in arcades, the aim was to get the most possible people to play a game rather than cater to an existing stable of fans. The result was a wave of cute or inoffensive characters with remarkably simple motivations.
Thanks to those early influences, that kind of hero in games still exists, but it shares the stage with many more protagonists, some of whom are exactly like the kinds of superheroes in comics, but plenty more are impressive for totally natural reasons. Think of the most popular games of the past few years -- are their heroes caped crusaders? No, they're relatively realistic people, like the figureheads of the Call of Duty series, or Uncharted's daredevil Nathan Drake, or the unlucky mooks at the centers of Grand Theft Auto games. Their challenges may be just as incredible as the kinds that Green Lantern or Spider-Man face, but their abilities don't come from aliens or radioactive insects. It also helps their longevity that their games are fun to play.
Power to (and of) the People
Superman is practically invincible, immeasurably strong, and can fly. Iron Man is Tony Stark in a super-advanced fighting armor. Wolverine has metal claws in his hands and can rapidly heal himself. We can rattle off the defining powers of our favorite superheroes, sometimes without even needing to read the comics. They can be born with these powers, be given them, or make themselves into superpowers. And we enjoy seeing where those powers can take them.
Heroes in games have easily definable powers, too, but sometimes they're not obvious right off the bat. If you saw Mario for the first time, what do you think he could do that's so special? Certainly he can also fly, but not without aid, and not indefinitely. In fact, all of his superpowers come from magic items; otherwise, he has to stomp on enemies as his main mode of defense. Mega Man is a robot boy who can shoot laserlike bullets, but his real power is taking enemies' powers. In other words, with early game heroes, many of them needed to be controlled in order for you to see what they can do -- you couldn't exactly read a comic or watch a film.
As mentioned, today's most popular game heroes are a mix of supernatural and slightly more natural. Any given RPG character can cast spells or summon beasts (or is a beast), and a few FPS heroes are just like Iron Man: powerful suits enveloping otherwise regular people. And therein lies the rub. There's an infinite number of aesthetic comparisons to make between game and comic heroes that can lose the point of any debate, so to draw a clearer picture of what a "hero" is or what their "powers" are, we'd have to look at the mediums themselves. And when it comes to power, games will always have comics beat. In an open-world game like GTA, the superpowers aren't in the character you're playing, but in the freedom you have to let them do almost anything -- and then the line between heroism and villainy is blurred to the point of irrelevance.
Chalk it up to the inherent virtue of video games where interactivity is the entire point, and you can go "off-script" whether you're controlling Solid Snake or a Tetris piece. Comics are beholden to their writers, who must always craft a beginning, middle, and end -- and if readers are entertained, they must follow them. Game developers do plenty of writing, too, but a player can spend all their time in the middle and entertain themselves if they so desire. It's safe to say that the notion of a "superhero" in a video game is not necessarily a superstrong man or woman in a cape, but simply a character that represents the power available to the player. Of course, whether the hero possesses a cape (or unrealistic gender stereotypes) is up to their creators.

I haven't kept up with the dozens of pages of ponz and elubas debate, so I'm sure the theoractical situation has evolved far beyond that, but oh well.
Well, as you can see, it's still evolving...
Btw I must say that Looby is the only player I've ever seen who went from thinking you should resign to not caring whether you do or not.
I really did, Andy. In fact, I was probably bitching about the opposite on the forums years ago.
Still, you do seem to be saying that if it's a real OTB game you're gonna get annoyed...right?
No, I wouldn't.
I am only conceding that playing on is bad if it's some official tournament...
Yes, you would (and did).
I like when my opponent plays to checkmate, because then the game is complete for me. I appreciate when my opponent resigns too, because it's a sign of respect for how I played to get to that position. What I don't like is when people resign far too early. Then the whole game seems fake to me. Like it was given to me.
Oh God, we just lost trysts! She should be posting squirrels right about now, and instead she's giving this thing a serious answer...
I make many errors in life, Tonydal
I sometimes do that to tease my opponents.
If I "did" I didn't mean to, let's put it that way. I should probably put it more abstractly and say it's conceivable that you may find some scenario in which I got annoyed, although it would have to be pretty darn extreme if I did.
Here is probably a controversal statement. There is a correlation between players who are willing to resign in a lost position and the chess strength of those players. The stronger you are, the more willing you are to resign in a lost position.
Players who won't resign are continuing the game "off the board," just hoping you'll be bored to death, or so annoyed that they won't resign that you blunder. People like that tell me I shouldn't even be playing chess, since they're just timewasters who really ruin the experience. These are people who deny reality in any walk of life, are one-sided, and basically swindlers. In other words, the type of geeky losers women avoid like the plague.
I just love how it had to turn into a conversation about women. Yeah... so what women (or men) want determine a person's fundamental value.

Historical Traveler Reviews Beachcomber Resort and Villas Pompano Beach
What happened to the beachcomber
We have been staying at the beachcomber for twelve years and could not believe the negative change in customer service, cleanliness and disrepair we observed. The pool was cracked with rusty ladders and missing tiles that cut my kids' foot. There was construction on the upper floors and the first floor common hallway was filthy. the elevators as well. There was a cigarette butt in the middle of the hallwayfor three consecutive days. the paint in the room was peeling.
construction workers used the guest elevator and partied near the pool outside our room after work. the worst aspect was the surly, almost nasty attitude of the woman in reservations who seemed to be the one in charge of the hotel. when you are on vacation you dont need that kind of aggrivation.
Loved the Beachcomber disliked treatment 11/03
Upon our arrival we were told that we could not stay at the hotel, we had made our reservations months ago. We had several rooms booked as a reunion was planned. We were not notified prior to our arrival and were very upset to be put into a hotel which did not meet our standards.
This caused people to cancel and also be put into another hotel, some got their rooms at the Beachcomber. A vacation we all looked foward to turned into a stressful event. We have stayed at the Beachcomber before and we were very happy with the accomodations and staff. We were extremely dissappointed with the treatment we received from the management. We stay at Best Western hotels frequently because they are usually so efficiently run. Sadly I can no longer say that.
Not at all like the website
I booked the reservation on-line a couple months ago, and 2 days later someone in Miami used my credit card number to order a laptop computer.
I am positive it was someone at the hotel who did this since I live in Illinois, and this was the only time I used this credit card in a month. But I decided to keep the reservation b/c of the positive reviews on this website, and we were going the week of the Fort Lauderdale boat show and hotels were booking up quickly. I mentioned this incident to the manager when we arrived. She apologized and blamed the web host, but that was it. I tried to get the 3rd night free promotion, but she wouldn't honor it b/c I booked the hotel when it was between promotions. But they did give me a free upgrade to a junior suite from an efficiency.
The chief reason we wanted this hotel is b/c it seemed like it was very kid-friendly with all the nice pictures on the website. There is no playground equipment like they show on the web photos. It is just a dirty sand pit. They said they took the playground down a couple of months ago and were planning on replacing it.
I got an email the day the day we were to arrive saying they were having some construction. I think they could have given us more notice, but I guess too many people would cancel their reservation. The hall carpets were filthy from the construction, and the contractors used the same elevators as the guests so we always had to wait forever for one.
And it was quite loud in the morning from the drilling and hammering.
The hotel is about a 30 minute drive from any of the attractions. Not a big deal if you just want to lounge on the beach (it is really nice), but we got very tired of that b/c we were traveling with a 20 month old.
The restaurant was hit or miss. We had the $14.95 lobster dinner special one night and it was awesome. Even the accompanying grilled squash and roasted potatoes were yummy, and can't beat the price.
But...I had the quiche lorraine for breakfast and it was completely un-eatable. The egg filling was a disgusting brown. I don't know how they could have screwed that up so badly.
Anyway, the room was nice, beach was nice, but I wouldn't stay there again b/c of the credit card issue and the distance from the attractions.
Will not ever stay here again!
I arrived at the hotel late and had difficulty finding it. I checked into my room and noticed that they did not give me the 2 double beds I requested. When I went to the front desk to complain, I overheard other customers complaining about their broken air conditioner. I asked the front desk clerk if the air in all of the rooms was broken and she then informed me that they had not had air in the hotel for 3 hours. (keep in mind this is Pompano beach in October ~ 80 degrees) It shocked me that she checked me into the room and did not mention this. I immediately checked out and got a room at the Holiday Inn on Pompano Beach Blvd.
Other things to mention about this hotel...the carpets and walls were dirty and stained, "claim" under construction but halls were smokey, desk clerk seem to care more about checking in guest than in the guest comfort.
I will not ever stay here again!
We just came home from a 5 night stay at the Beachcomber (7/18-7/23, 2003) Thanks to this website I am convinced our online reservations gave us priority lodging as we were told when checking in our "booking agent" qualified us for executive rooms. ..at only $76/night! Wow! We had an incredible room on the 7th floor accessed with a special elevator key which was immaculate with an awesome ocean view. The grounds were nothing short of lush and tropical and both swimming pools were well maintained. The location was close to many conveniences such as fishing and shopping and wonderful dining. We plan to return.
Nice quaint hotel
I stayed at the Beachcomber for two days and truly enjoyed my time. I chose to stay in the hotel portion: no ocean view, regular hotel room. The room was clean and I felt comfortable in the room. I am picky - I have been known to carefully inspect hotel sheets, not walk barefoot on hotel carpets and more. The hotel staff is very friendly. The pool is great with a conveniently located bar. Beachcomber residents have direct access to the beach and can rent cabanas, cushions etc. The hotel is a good sized quaint hotel with a good atmosphere. I am already planning my next trip there.
Wonderful hotel
this is a wonderful hotel with a great view of the ocean and beautiful surrounding of the property. 2 pools ,tiki bar, putting green and gardens to walk through. the staff at this hotel are wonderful people they make sure your stay is very comfortable and if you need any extras they always seem to get what you want [extra towels late checkout extra keys] etc the food was great and on weekends they have a cookout for lunch with burgers hot dogs and chicken breast. For those who forget your beachtowels no problem they supply you with towels each day out at the pool. By the way each room comes with coffeemaker refrig and microwave. the beachfront efficiency was big enough for 4 people 2 beds 1 bath [the bathroom is in the hallway of the room which was nice so you had a little extra room to move around. all in all this is a great hotel and one i would highly recommend using again and again
Come and relax
Situated on 300 ft of pristine beach, this beautiful and laid back Ft. Lauderdale (Airport 10 mins) resort is a quiet beauty tucked away on Ocean Drive just far enough away from it all. Nightly piano bar, poolside BBQ lunch, friendly atmosphere and great ocean views keep my family coming back year after year. Tropical garden and well maintained grounds. Expect to relax here. Some rooms have kitchenettes and the pools have great views too.
We stayed here approximately 4 years ago and loved it. We booked the 2 bedroom villa. Only problem we had was the air conditioning. Didn't cool off the whole villa. The service was excellent. The food in the restaurant was excellent. We are going back in May. Hopefully, nothing has changed.Will review on my return.
Beautiful property
The Beachcomber is an older property that has been well maintained. The rooms are modern and clean. The gardens, beach, and pool areas are beautiful and like the buildings are very well maintained. Service staff are polite and accommodating.
The restaurant is excellent. We have used this property twice and will use it again without hesitation. With so many properties today being cookie cutter plain, this place
has "personality".

But during an impromptu march early this morning, things got violent. Video of the NYPD running over a National Lawyer's Guild legal observer's leg with a scooter is above. He reportedly broke his leg, and was arrested after kicking the scooter over to free himself, since, you know, the cop just parked it there and walked away. Then there's the guy who was punched in the face after no apparent provocation. (See video from The Street below.) Advertisement The man punched, Felix Rivera-Pitre is an HIV positive former dancer who lives in a YMCA in Queens. He told Gothamist this morning: "The cop just lunged at me full throttle and hit me on the left side of my face. It tore my earring out. I remember seeing my earring on the ground next to me and it was full of blood. I was completely dumbstruck. I'm HIV positive and that cop should get tested." The only explanation he could give for the punch was that he "shot the cop a look." About 15 people were arrested early this morning during the march. Sponsored Reply249 repliesLeave a reply

Simple Savory Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 25 mins
These simply mashed sweet potatoes taste so good it's hard to stop eating them! It's amazing what just a little butter, sour cream and a few scallions can do without all the frills we usually add. Then again, the beautiful sweet potato doesn't need much help. These make a wonderful addition to a hearty meal and pair well with most meats, especially pork. I pre-bake the potatoes in the oven because I think they have the best flavor, but I included steps for cooking them in the microwave as well. The dish will take from 25 minutes using the microwave to 65 minutes using the oven, not counting the cooling period post cooking.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 1⁄2 lbs sweet potatoes (about 4)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1⁄2 cup chopped green onion, some set aside for topping (about 4)
- salt, to taste
- fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- 1⁄2 cup sour cream
- Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes; pat dry.
- To bake the sweet potatoes, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place pricked potatoes on a foil-lined baking pan to catch any juices that leak, then into the preheated oven and cook for 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are fully cooked and tender, up to 1 hour.
- To cook the sweet potatoes more quickly, carefully prick each sweet potato about 6 times, place in microwave oven on a paper towel and cook on High 15 to 17 minutes, or until a knife is easily inserted into center of potatoes.
- When cool enough to handle, remove skin and any dark spots from potatoes. In a medium bowl, mash potatoes with butter and season with salt and pepper. Stir in sour cream and scallions until well mixed. Serve immediately sprinkled with reserved green onions on top.

Google censorship report reveals Governmental tinkering
Google has published its interactive Transparency Report, detailing the number of requests made by Governments around the world for access to personal data records and removal of offending websites from the search engine.
The Internet giant reveals that many such requests are often made to sites around the world, however, Google has decided to let us know exactly how many it has received since July 2009, in six-monthly chunks.
It probably comes as no surprise, but the US Government is the biggest busy-body, with 4,287 requests for user data from January 2010 to June 2010. It also asked Google to remove 128 different websites from its search engine and other web domains, such as YouTube.
Second on the list comes, perhaps surprisingly, Brazil, with 2,435 requests for personal data, 398 requests for removal in the same period.
The UK asked for 1,343 user records, but only 48 websites or video to be removed.
Google stresses that its report (published at www.google.com/transparencyreport) is not 100 per cent accurate. For instance, countries who made less than 30 requests for user data have been omitted, as have those who have asked for 10 removals. But it does offer full breakdowns of specifics for each country listed on its interactive map.
Nor does the report detail the removals made in the case of child pornography. Google already does its utmost to keep such content from its servers, so has few records as to whether it removed the content itself, or whether a Governmental agency requested it.
The web giant hopes that the release of these statistics will provoke others into following suit: "We hope this tool will be helpful in studies about service outages and disruptions and that other companies will make similar disclosures," it says.
What do you think? Are Government's trying to protect our interests? Should Google release such information? Let us know in the comments below...

Inventory Management:
Greater Use of Best Practices Could Reduce DOD's Logistics Costs
T-NSIAD-97-214: Published: Jul 24, 1997. Publicly Released: Jul 24, 1997.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-8412
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO discussed the Department of Defense's (DOD) use of innovative business practices to improve inventory management and the opportunities GAO sees for further application of best practices to DOD's operations, focusing on: (1) the success DOD has had in using prime-vendor-type programs for medical, food, and clothing items; (2) the feasibility of using prime vendor systems for hardware items (such as bearings, valves, and bolts); and (3) recently introduced legislation that pertains to improving DOD's inventory management practices.
GAO noted that: (1) DOD has successfully applied best practices to improve the management of medical and food items, which account for 2 percent of the consumable items DOD manages; (2) DOD's prime vendor program for medical supplies, along with other DOD inventory reduction efforts, has resulted in savings that GAO estimates exceed $700 million; (3) more importantly, this program has moved DOD out of the inventory storage and distribution function for these supplies, emptying warehouses, eliminating unnecessary layers of inventory, and reducing the overall size of the DOD supply system; (4) also, DOD buys only the items that are currently needed because consumers can order and receive inventory within hours of the time the items are used; (5) despite the success of its prime vendor program for medical supplies and, to a lesser extent, food items, DOD has made little progress in adopting best practices for hardware supplies, which account for 97 percent of the consumable items; (6) DOD continues to manage hardware items using inefficient and outdated business practices, which have resulted in excessive inventory levels, poor customer service, and delays in the repair of expensive military equipment; (7) although the private sector has developed solutions to these problems, DOD's efforts to adopt such practices are limited in scope and represent only a small part of its logistics operations; (8) since 1991, GAO has issued a series of reports highlighting best practices GAO believes have direct application to DOD's operations; (9) however, DOD has not applied these best practices to the majority of DOD consumable items, and inefficiencies in DOD's logistics systems remain; (10) in this context, proposed legislative initiatives, if enacted, would encourage DOD to change its inventory management practices; (11) also, congressional oversight will continue to be a critical element as DOD establishes plans, goals, objectives, and milestones for addressing its inventory management processes; (12) GAO strongly supports the need to improve DOD's business practices and further reduce the logistics infrastructure; and (13) because of the potential impact improved business practices would have on DOD inventory levels, operating costs, and the repair of weapon systems and component parts, GAO believes DOD must be more aggressive in expanding the use of new management techniques for these items.

Dolph Lundgren Goes Undercover in 'Kindergarten Cop 2′ Trailer
The action-movie veteran follows in the footsteps of Arnold Schwarzenegger in the direct-to-DVD sequel to the 1990 comedy.
The action-movie veteran follows in the footsteps of Arnold Schwarzenegger in the direct-to-DVD sequel to the 1990 comedy.
The direct-to-DVD sequel trades one action icon for another, as Dolph Lundgren goes undercover as a kindergarten teacher.
The star of "Rocky IV" and "Expendables" — and actual chemical engineer — will star in the direct-to-DVD sequel of the beloved Arnold Schwarzenegger film.
The legendary action star spoke with SPINOFF about dealing with heavy subject matter in his latest film, and going toe-to-toe with Tony Jaa.
With an ensemble cast so large that many of its players have little to do, the latest installment of Sylvester Stallone's action franchise is satisfying despite itself.
What the latest trailer for The Expendables 3 lacks in new footage it make up for with the addition of Terry Crews.
The first full-length trailer is filled with explosions, gunfire, over-the-top stunts … and a generous amount of Kelsey Grammer.
A new teaser trailer runs down an all-star cast that includes Sylvester Stallone, Wesley Snipes, Jason Statham, Harrison ford, Kelsey Grammer, Mel Gibson and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Giving a nod to The Bridge on the River Kwai, the teaser for the Lionsgate sequel introduces audiences to the ensemble cast.
Reuniting Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Arnold Schwarzenegger and the other action all-stars, The Expendables 2 is a surprisingly fun movie that improves on The Expendables formula and avoids the worst pitfalls of the first film.
At Comic-Con International, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and the cast of The Expendables 2 discuss their highly anticipated sequel, as well as the past and present of the action genre.
Lionsgate has released 10 new images from The Expendables 2 the Simon West-directed sequel to the hit 2010 ensemble action film. It opens Aug. 17.

Samsung X11 laptop
Light weight, powerful
Average battery, poor graphics
Samsung has a reputation for delivering ultraportable notebooks at an aggressive price and the X11 follows a similar theme. At £750 (inc. VAT) it comes with an affordable price tag, especially when you consider it's running a dual-core processor in the form of the Intel Core Duo T2300 (1.66GHz). While this isn't the fastest chip on the market, it'll more than get the job done. The system is shipped with 512MB of memory, which is a little low and we'd suggest getting this bumped up to 1024MB as you'll really see the difference, especially when running more than one application. That said, we had no problems with the machine, as it handled our daily tasks comfortably. The 80GB hard drive is larger than we were expecting, so will easily handle all your files and programs.
The chassis itself weighs in at 1.8kg, which is ideal for carrying around, as you won't find it taxing on your shoulder. The styling is neat and tidy, with an angular design, and a silver and black finish. The keyboard has good-sized keys, and a well-judged action makes it easy to type at speed. The coarse, responsive touchpad mirrors the screen's aspect ratio, and has a scroll bar on the side. Brushed aluminium buttons add a tactile, quality feel to the system.
It's not all-good news, as this weight is counter-balanced by a less than ideal battery life. On average, we found ourselves looking for a top-up every couple of hours when working even simply word processing tasks, so not the best machine if you want to be truly free of wires.
The screen is a standard 14.1-inch TFT panel, so you won't find a glossy coating but it is widescreen, so watching DVDs or simply more than one page of a document up on the screen at any one time is easily done. Graphics are an integrated Intel chip, so you won't be able to play games but it's more than powerful enough for work related tasks.
Keeping costs down is the use of a standard DVD/CD-RW drive, which isn't as versatile as a DVD rewriter but you'll be able to watch DVDs with little trouble. In terms of connectivity, you'll find Gigabit Ethernet, enabling fast connections to fixed networks. To take advantage of wireless hotspots, an 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi adapter is built-in. For connecting to external displays, you'll find S-Video and VGA-out sockets, ideal for presentations. A Bluetooth adapter allows you to transfer files wirelessly, and there's also a 6-in-1 card reader.
For the asking price, the Samsung X11 is a good all-round machine that is powerful enough for most users, especially if you opt for the memory upgrade, just doubt expect it to last a long time away from mains power.
This notebook is best suited to a student, or someone who needs to make limited notes and then use the machine for long periods once back at their desk. If this sounds like you, you'll find a cost-effective answer in the X11.

Motorola Xoom Ice Cream Sandwich update available now
Back in December Motorola stated that it was planning as many Ice Cream Sandwich updates as possible and the first fruits of that promise have been realised with the release of Android 4.0 for the original Motorola Xoom.
If you own a Wi-Fi-only version of the original Honeycomb tab and live Stateside then you can get on-board the Ice Cream Sandwich express now.
"We are pleased to announce the new software update for the Motorola Xoom (Wi-Fi)," read a company statement. "Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich, delivers a refined user interface and introduces innovative features for tablet users. The software update includes numerous enhancements as well as providing additional features, and will roll out to Xoom."
3G owners will have to wait, as will any Xoomers not residing in the US. The last major Xoom update, from Android 3.1 to 3.2, was a long drawn out affair from the soon-to-be Google owned company. It landed in the UK in September, US users had the update land a month or so before.
Let's hope Moto is quicker with the goodies this time around.
If you're rocking a Wi-Fi Xoom in the States you can nab the update over a Wi-Fi connection once notified. If you are not hooked up to Wi-Fi, or your Motorola Xoom is switched off when the notification arrives, you will see it when you next connect to a Wi-Fi network.
It's rolling out now.

Aloft Chicago O'Hare
Passing through the Windy City on a business trip or carefree vacation? Aloft Chicago O'Hare is just five minutes from baggage claim—but light-years from all those other run-of-the-mill airport hotels. Abuzz with the energy of discovery and interaction, this bold new lodging alternative might just inspire you to stick around and explore our namesake city and its surroundings.
Stay and play awhile! We're in the bustling suburb of Rosemont, mere minutes from O'Hare's terminals and just a half-hour from downtown Chicago. Jump on the skywalk to get to the MB Financial Park at Rosemont, where you'll find a plethora of restaurants and bars, plus a bowling alley and a comedy club. The Donald E. Stephens Convention Center is also walking-distance away, and it's a quick drive to check out the sports action at the Allstate Arena.
For a change of scenery, breeze into the big city to enjoy its endless attractions. Spectacular skyscrapers, a dizzying list of museums, and peaceful parks along the lake. Cheer on the Cubs, the Bears, or the Bulls, or give your credit cards a workout at the Magnificent Mile's non-stop shopping. And don't forget to try some deep-dish pizza!
Need local tips? Check out the in-touch terminals in our re:mix(SM) lounge, for easy breezy Internet access to all that need-to-know info. Then ease on down the road to experience the Windy City and its outlying areas.

Health & Pregnancy
Preeclampsia - Prevention
Lowering your blood pressure helps to prevent preeclampsia. If you have chronic high blood pressure, you can lower your blood pressure before pregnancy by:
- Exercising.
- Eating a diet low in sodium and rich in fruits and vegetables.
- Staying at a healthy weight.
When you are pregnant, regular checkups are key to early detection and treatment. Prompt treatment is vital to preventing the development of severe and possibly life-threatening preeclampsia.
To reduce your risk for preeclampsia, your doctor may recommend that you take low-dose aspirin during the second and third trimesters of your pregnancy.

Owner has plans to expand Cajun Country Event Center
Published: Friday, June 27, 2008 at 3:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, June 26, 2008 at 3:07 p.m.
The Cajun Country Event Center in Raceland may be one of the areas best-kept secrets, according to Shannon Ledet, but if she and her family have their way it wont be for long.
With shows featuring some of the areas most popular bands, the Cajun Country Event Center is beginning to attract larger and larger crowds, Ledet said, as the word spreads about the good times to be had listening and dancing to the music of groups like Souled Out, HipBootJoe, Blue Eyed Soul Revue and Waylon Thibodeaux.
Since April, the Cajun Country Event Center has had live music just about every Saturday and Sunday night, according to Ledet with most ticket prices in the $5 to $10 range. The center, 2639 La. 182, Raceland, is less than two miles off La. 1.
The bands we feature are mostly regional favorites, Ledet said, and the kind of music they play can be called country, swamp pop, southern rock or rock country.
With bands like these, Ledet said, the Cajun Country Event Center is attracting diverse crowds, which change with the type of band.
Next month, Ledet said, they plan to feature a show with HipBootJoe for all ages.
Usually our crowd is 18 and over, but this will be a family event on a Sunday afternoon in July.
The event center is the latest project of Shannon Ledets father, Johnny Ledet of Raceland. On the property with the event center are a restaurant, a convenience store with gas pumps and a video-poker casino.
Dad and his wife, Linda, just came up with the ideas, she added.
Her father acquired the multi-acre property about four years ago, Ledet said, and he saw it as an opportunity for Raceland. At the time, the only open part of the buildings was the gas station, which was a fueling place for truckers, and what is now the casino, restaurant and event center was an empty warehouse-style building which needed a lot of cleaning and renovating.
Dad doesnt like to quote numbers, but he put a lot of money into this project, Ledet said of the buildings with their LSU Tiger theme. Tigers Drive connects the event center and the casino and it mimics the field in Tiger Stadium.
Along the street are some of Ledets grandfathers LSU memorabilia.
Ledet said she began by helping her father with office work, but her duties kept expanding and today her official title is events coordinator, but she still helps with the office and with the centers Web site design and maintenance.
You could say I wear all the hats, she said.
In the event center, the large screen and TV projector work well when the center is used for business presentations as well as for viewing of sporting events or music, such as when they feature select boiled seafood for customers. The sound equipment also is state of the art, Ledet said.
In the fall, Ledet said they plan to add a comedy night; even though all the details havent been worked out yet. In the fall, they also will resume the traditional Friday night seafood boils.
Ledet said her father isnt finished with the property yet, and is adding a music studio he calls Mothers Farm beyond the main building, which he hopes will attract not only local artists but some national names as well, with the help of a friend in the music business.
The restaurant is not a typical Cajun restaurant, Ledet said. Its really an authentic Mexican restaurant, she said, called El Cajuns La Mex, you know, like Tex Mex, she said, but with a Cajun flavor. Most of the dishes, she said, are traditional Mexican, but there are some strictly Cajun dishes and some good mixes, like the crawfish enchiladas or her dads own special Jays La-Bar-B-Q shrimp.
Dad managed to persuade a family that had been operating a restaurant in another city to move here to cook after he tasted their food on a hunting trip, Ledet said. The Mexican theme was all his idea and its been successful, she said.
The restaurant is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and the schedule of events can be found on the Cajun Country Event Centers Web site, either www.cajuncountryevents.com or on www.myspace.com/cajuncountryevents.

Top Democrat asks Crist to veto budget
Published: Friday, January 16, 2009 at 12:15 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 16, 2009 at 1:29 p.m.
Gov. Charlie Crist still has a few weeks to sign the recently passed bill that filled a $2.3 billion hole in the budget with spending cuts and borrowing. But the heat is already coming.
Senate Democratic Leader Al Lawson of Tallahassee asked Crist on Friday to veto the whole deal and force lawmakers to try again.
Lawson put out the release after the Department of Corrections said on Thursday that it would have to lay off 66 probation officers. He said Republicans ignored pleas to consider some tax increases on businesses and smokers to protect those and other jobs.
This state has grown weary of drinking the Republican kool aid," Lawson wrote. "But rather than lead us away from the land of special interests protections, hes delivering Florida into the valley of pink slips."
That's pretty clever, but not likely to move Crist into anything other that a few line-item vetoes.
Lawson separately asked Crist to veto the governor's pet project, a $10 million low-interest loan program for small businesses that will only help a few dozen companies around the state.
Lawson called the plan a "risky gamble ... funded by axing existing jobs for iffy future ones."
Wihle Lawson is not likely to get his wishes, it does mark one of the first times in Crist's term that a Democratic lawmaker has publicly attacked Crist.

Ranking the AFC West: Interior offensive line
There are 1 comment on the Silver And Black Pride story from Jul 17, 2012, titled Ranking the AFC West: Interior offensive line. In it, Silver And Black Pride reports that:
I won't lie, this was the most difficult position group to rank. For a couple reasons.
Join the discussion below, or Read more at Silver And Black Pride.
#1 Jul 17, 2012
The author of this article is correct. This is the toughest position to rank. I don't think there is a clear #1. I think the only stats you can look at is the qb's lack of sacks, hurries and knock downs. The rb's lanes, not realky a stat, but which team consistently creates lanes for the rb's. And deep passes, meaning the time afforded to the qb. But again, it's hard to quantify.

The Denver Broncos are now 6-0 in games officiated by last night's crew
Let's start this with what we all know to be true. The Denver Broncos simply dominated the Carolina Panthers. They out game planned and outplayed the Panthers plain and simple. It was such a beating that Cam Newton couldn't stomach sitting through his postgame press conference as he could hear the Broncos gloating.
Is this why Cam Newton walked out of postgame press conference?
Last night's Super Bowl was a nightmare for Cam Newton on many levels. The Broncos neutralized the newly crowned MVP and basically beat him up all night. It was clear from the start that the Broncos were not going to let Newton beat him with his legs and that made Newton a sitting duck. And […]
