the meow grabber only stated you're fired after the leak proved he was involved in all the mess. now the attention is aimed at him and he's trying to deflect attention at the leak and not how he knew all along of this mess and did NOTHING!!! typical repubicans will investigate a dem for years and come up with nothing but when everyone knows there are repubs behind this mess they don't want any investigation... HYPOCRITE lying sacs all of them.
A face to face session with a strong moderator featuring Mr. Skorman and Mr. Fowler, the CSF endorsed candidate - on how best to address the three top issues facing the city should be illuminating. Then Mr. Fowler could go back to his day job.
Richard's a hell of a class act. Not sure there is anyone with a better understanding of our city government than Richard Skorman in town. And he's a got a good sense of humor.
Rather have a Chuck than a Chard anyday....
I already feel pretty secure, but I'll never feel too smart. Unfortunately, NPR is typically distrusted among conservatives, so he's unlikely to change his mind.
I've always enjoyed a nice, crisp Chard.
Do you hand your dollar to the beggar standing on the median or do you hand it to a non-profit homeless organization. At the moment neither seems to be a solution.

Ok? www.coloradoprogressiveparty.org is socialist republican? Wuut? But the article says "you don't have to be Democrat"...hmmm. I say every person gets one acre when born, no silly governments.
Really? Third term? How about strict term limits and transparency? Progressives like Bernie promise free college in health care..wuuuuht? www.ColoradoProgressiveParty.org
Old crank?
We live in a culture of instant gratification. For many, it is hard to accept that after five years, Waldo Canyon is still off limits and might be for quite some time. But you can't rush Mother Nature. As the article states, "human activity in the canyon can also disturb the fragile eco-systems, further inhibiting the recovery of the canyon." The revegetation of Waldo Canyon should always supercede the public's *desire* to hike there.
Um the thought of local law enforcemwnt taking on this extra reaponsibility will result in lawless in the forest. Have you ever had to dial 911 lately, "your call is very important to us. Please stay on the line, your call will be answered in the order it was received." Local law enforcement does not have the budget or staffing levels to do this.
It's not only the unstable soil/sediment that poses a hazard, but now the tress have become unstable. The tops and whole tress are now falling & breaking when there are high winds. I've seen tops falling off & trees falling over at the roots that are now rotting. Any trails in the burn area would need trees cut up to 100 feet on either side of the trail so that hikers are safe. Rebuilding a trail on unstable soil also posses issues. Without ground cover the soil sloughs very easily and would require a lot of trail maintenance. I'm seeing all these issues at the Flying W Ranch were I built a 6,000 LF equestrian trail for a waterline. I understand people want to hike in Waldo Canyon, but be patient & let the regrowth help stabilize the soil. I've been in Waldo Canyon do mitigation, and have see the devastation.
Why is this film not playing here? On to Denver, I guess.

Grow Up
The issue is somewhat different than explained. Generally, local control is better than federal control for issues such as parks because the citizens that use the parks are the ones that care the most. Local control is better than federal control because citizens have the ability to meet with local elected officials for any issues.
The threat of hikers being arrested by untrained forest rangers is concerning. There are many recent examples where the threat of enforcement has been used by the U.S. Forest Service against the local hiking community:
---At the public meetings for Jones Park, the U.S. Forest Service prominently displayed signs at every meeting with the penalties (jail time and fine) for hiking in the area. While the public continued to use the area, the threat of enforcement was used as an intimidation tactic. No one was arrested, but why threaten the thousands of users that summer? [even Doug Lamborn was run over by the USFS on this issue - his office did hike in protest of the ban].
---At the Bear Creek Roundtable, the U.S. Forest Service continues to push for enforcement of penalties against local hikers (proposed ordinance against off-trail hiking was recently discussed). The Historic Trail is scheduled for closure this summer, and the U.S. Forest Service maintains that local hikers will be dragged into federal court if they hike off-trail.
In the example cited at Mount Herman, I do not understand why the county sheriff would not be able to enforce a ban on shooting. The law to reimburse local agencies for the cost of enforcement seems reasonable.
Misuse of the power of enforcement is the concern. I prefer local control, supervised by an elected official, to what I have seen by the U.S. Forest Service. The criminal activity cited is: local hikers being off-trail. Not much of a crime except to the federal government. Why not leave this to the discretion of the local sheriff?
Bulletin boards are commonly used in schools, colleges and office depots etc. to gather and transfer information. In todays time, it is not possible to convey our message individually so these boards are very helpful, one just need to stick the matter on the common bulletin and everyone will get the news. For all this, use inventive material to make them more eye-catchy and you can easily get such stuff from https://www.hyglossproducts.com/back-to-school-activity-2. I hope you all will like them too.
I read an early draft of Ghostland in 2014 that was written by Jon Orr and Brandon Laney, and I really enjoyed it. Hopefully Brandon gets some credit for his work if this book takes off!
Good luck with it, Jon!

Tales of the Otherworld
Have you ever wondered how lone wolf Clayton Danvers finally got bitten by the last thing he ever expected: love? Or how the hot-blooded bad-girl witch Eve Levine managed to ensnare the cold, ruthless corporate sorcerer, Kristof Nast in one of the Otherworld's most unlikely pairings? Would you like to be a fly on the wall at the wedding of Lucas Cortez and Paige Winterbourne, as their eminently practical plans are gradually upended by their well-meaning friends? Or tag along with Lucas and Paige as they investigate a rather gruesome case that looks to be the result of a rogue vampire?
Now, Otherworld readers can share these moments with some of their favorite characters–as well as catching welcome glimpses into the minds of some of the lesser-known players. But even readers new to the Otherworld universe will find much to love in these seven tales of friendship, adventure, and enduring romance.
Anthology contains: Rebirth, Birthright, Beginnings, Ghosts, Expectations, Wedding Bell Hell, The Case of El Chupacabra and a new story narrated by Eve.

Because a mini-game is pretty much what sex is, isn't it? The scene takes place in Aphrodite's Chamber, and was almost cut. "It was more a debate between me and several of the story writers," God of War III director Stig Asmussen told website UGO. "I was like, 'I'd rather not have it in there at all.'" "We make it more than it's been in the past, but we also give it more of a purpose," said Asmussen. "It's not just you going in there, finding some corner and having sex with somebody. It's something that guides you through the story. You get information and more than just a fluff moment." Advertisement Advertisement Heavily censored footage has surfaced on YouTube, along with pixelated screengrabs. And, of course, the mini-game in its entirety. The clip is viewable here. Judge for yourself, but be warned: There's nudity and possible spoilers.While there is nudity, the scene itself isn't exactly sexy per se. The dialogue is hammy in a goofy, porn sort of way, and pails in comparison to the sexual pyrotechnics of adventure game Uncharted 2 and sci-fi game Mass Effect.The point, however, of the God of War mini-games are and have always been to show how manly protagonist Kratos is.

NRIs will get voting rights soon: Manmohan
India has decided to register NRIs in the electoral rolls to let them exercise their franchise.
New Delhi: India has decided to merge the two visa facilitation cards that are issued to people of Indian origin and register non-resident Indians in the electoral rolls to let them exercise their franchise, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said on Saturday.
"We recently reviewed the Overseas Citizenship of India Card and Person of Indian Origin Card. We have decided to merge them into one," the prime minister told the 9th edition of India's annual convention to connect with its 25-million-strong diaspora in 130 nations.
He also said that the necessary amendments had been made to extend voting rights to non-resident Indians. "New legal provision will give them legitimate right to participate in Indian electoral process," the prime minister said.
"I am sure they will bring a breath of fresh air to Indian polity."
The prime minister was addressing some 1,500 delegates from 51 countries, members of the diplomatic core, ministers, chief ministers and bureaucrats, at what is called the Pravasi Bharatiya Divas. New Zealand Governor-General Anand Satyanand was the chief guest.
Others who spoke at the inaugural event included Minister for Overseas Indian Affairs Vayalar Ravi, Minister for Development of North Eastern Region B.K. Handique and Overseas Indian Affairs Secretary A. Didar Singh.
The prime minister said the past year was a busy year for India, with the leaders of all nations that are permanent members of the United Nations Security Council visiting New Delhi. "We will play a commensurate role in international forums."
He said during his visits to various countries, he was particularly pleased when the leaders and community leaders lauded the role played by the Indian community in their land of domicile.
The prime minister also unveiled the foundation stone for the Pravasi Bharatiya Kendra here and hoped it will fulfil its envisaged role of becoming a focal point for engagement between the Indian diaspora and India.
Ravi told the delegates that India had already amended the Representation of People Act to address the long-standing demand of non-resident citizens to enable them to exercise their franchise.
"I am happy to say non-resident Indians will be able to enroll themselves for voting."
Sir Satyanand said people of Indian origin who migrated to distant lands thousands of miles away over the past few centuries have never forgotten their roots. "To this day, they remain proud of their Indian heritage."
He said till 1976 the strength of the Indian diaspora in New Zealand numbered 6,300. But today, their numbers had swelled to over 100,000 people, to make them second largest Asian ethnic group in the South Pacific nation.
"The 25 million diaspora, the second largest expatriate community in the world, can give a powerful support to India in its ongoing path towards development. We should give our continued support to this diaspora."
Satyanand also hoped that the free trade agreement being negotiated between the two countries will fructify soon, as it had the potential to enhance bilateral economic engagement to a new level.

I think "I Want To Believe" is a tshirt we all wear as MMO players. But I doubt Funcom can pull this off. Maybe after a year of patching and content updates, it is such a mammoth project I just don't see it launching that well. The SW Phase 2, they got it wrong and that points to how the game will go.
I think they could have pulled this of five years ago, but now if you do not launch perfectly you die, that is the environment new MMO's are in.
You received 25 Agrees. You're posting some good content. Great!

Now Doesn't That Make You Feel All Warm And Fuzzy? :P
If they would make this game F2P it would be massive in terms of playerbase. They could just make the game $59.95 and call it a day, none of that $15 a month BS anymore. I don't mind store items, just as long as they don't over do it with elite gear that messes up end game PVP and such.

I'm sorry but NO!
I'd rather pay for a great game over getting a sub-par game for free any day.
Sure I agree with you partially but I'm not happy about greedy devs....p2p+ cashshop=robbery
make up your damn minds, either f2p+cashshop or p2p no cashshop. Iif I'm paying monthly for a game why should I suffer the cash shop dilemma as well.
Wake up gamer's if you let them get away with it just cause it's a good game it will become the standard. or take a hint from A.net and go b2p+cashshop. DONT BE F**iNG GREEDY.
Angry Joe's Guild Wars 2 video review
Aerowyn's Video Compilation of ALL things Guild Wars 2
I really don't have a problem with a vanity item cash shop in my subscription game. Now if I have to pay for content unlocks like quest lines, zones or instances through the cash shop thats a different story and I'll walk away from the game. But as i understand it right now their idea for the shop is purely vanity items and they are welcome to that.
People ranting about it on principal, or it being greedy need to grow up. Its not just entertainmnet, it's a business. At least they have the good sense to plan out a payment model well in advance of launch instead of tacking on a cash shop a few months after launch.
If TSW is a terrbile game it won't matter one bit what pricing model they use the game will fail. If it's a fantastic game and a success, they have every right to use whatever payment model is going to garner them the most revenue from the game. Revenue they can then use to hire more people, develop new games and grow their company.
SIGH!!! I am going to buy SWTOR, GW2 and TSW. Playing will tell me how that goes. Everything else is just passing the time till they come out and launch. I am looking forward to all 3.
He said word STORY 21 times. I guess SWTOR is already influencing other game devs with their focus on SOTYR pillar .

What do you know about there gameengine then?
I know that they have worked hard on improving the gameengine. And are currently using the uppgraded gameengine on AoC. There are stil improvment being done and they are to be used by AoC in q1(before TSW launch). TSW have five times larger playfields than the biggest once in AoC. The playfields in the AoC expantions is about 3times the size of the largest once at launch of AoC. Sow the playfields will be 15 times larger than the original AoC game. The game will not be heavy instanced. The game will require ok HW(about same as AoC) as it has the most stunning MMORPG grahics today.
I just think this is going to be a mess in terms of story telling. It's just going to be a weird clash and mish-mash of occult nonsense and other absurdist stuff about crop circles, ouiga boards, and flying saucer mumbo-jumbo. I advise skip.
This site has a code of conduct that prohibits me from saying insulting or derogatory things to people with whom I disagree, so in place of calling people out I will say this:
If you truly believe that top-quality MMO's can begin their lives on a F2P model and continue to be successful, I want you to do something for me: take into consideration how many players F2P games like LotRO and DDO have (and how much hardware/tech people are required to support that number), the absolutely abysmal and embarassing graphics of those games, and compare it to a game like The Old Republic or The Secret World. The divide is ENORMOUS. We're talking, like, stretch the Laurentian Abyss out horizontally (while maintaining its verticality) and now you've got an idea of what you should be envisioning here.
F2P is for games that have a relatively low-cost development cycle that allows the publisher the time required for a F2P model to recoup the expenses of developing the game, which is why League of Legends (and similar games) look like they were made on a F##KING Etch-a-Sketch compared to real, high-quality games produced by extremely talented people. F2P is also great for games that failed to perform as subcription-based titles and are then appropriately scaled down in terms of hardware support and designer support. LotRO and DDO had been out for plenty long before their handlers threw in the towel.
I have no idea where people get this sense of entitlement, or that game developers shouldn't try to make money by offering -=VANITY=- items in the cash shop!!! It makes me want to tear my damn hair out when I see these whiny little peons crying about not being able to get a triple-A title for free, or that there's going to be some iteration on the cash shop model! PEOPLE HAVE BEEN BUYING AND SELLING ITEMS FOR REAL CASH IN MMO'S FOR OVER TEN YEARS. Why is it okay when you're buying a King's Sword of Bitchin' Kick-assery from a Chinese guy who craps in a bucket next to his computer, but it isn't okay to buy a Super-special Extra-cute Pet Chihuahua from the company that designed the damn game?!?
EVERYTHING costs money, guys. This money must be made back within a reasonable span of time. TSW has been in development for, what...seven years? And now that EA has their filthy hands on the project you can bet dollars to doughnuts that they are applying immense pressure on Funcom to get this product out and make it as profitable as possible as quickly as possible. This is the way the world works; with very few exceptions (CD Project Red of The Witcher and The Witcher II fame probably being most notable), the days of the game industry being strictly "for us, by us" are long, long gone. It's about getting your money now. And if you're comfortable with playing a glorified iPhone game because it's free, they don't want your money -- because there are forty million more who want a good damn game.
And just to show that my crazy, Internet nerd-rage isn't totally blinding me with its white-hot fury I will point out the potentially glaring fallacy in my argument: Guild Wars 2. ArenaNet is asserting that it will be absent monthly fees (though they haven't mentioned anything substantive regarding an in-game cash shop), and the game looks absolutely phenomenal. Either they've got a really carefully-modeled business plan going on or they've sold their souls to some cosmic entity -- I haven't decided yet. ;-)
What I really want to know is when is ragnar going to make another longest journey?
i would agree with everything except about witcher 2, bought the game on direct download and never got a code to unlock it. sent eamials and everything still never got anything. very dissapointed.

Im willing to bet that you will most likely see something along those lines . And yes that would be the pinnacle of epicness (is that even a word? It should be.)
All war is deception.
When they think we are in front of them, we are behind them.
When they think we are weak, we are strong.
When they think we are few, we are legion.
For there ever to be true balance, there must first be chaos.
And chaos is ours to orchestrate.
One word can equal the might of a thousand swords.
And one sword can obliterate a thousand lives.
Everyone and everything has a purpose and a path, if only as a ruse or a diversion.
Everything can be manipulated into usefulness by those who truly understand the very nature of things.
We understand.
We create chaos in order to achieve balance.
The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.
We are Dragon, and we have both.

It has been a challenging year for the uranium juniors. Market capitalizations shed close to 2/3 of their values from their 2011 pre-Fukushima highs, lagging the overall industry performance (URA -63%; NLR -48%) and considerably below performance of the larger uranium peers: Cameco (CCJ) -29%; Uranium One (OTC:SXRZF) -58%.
In an environment like this, investors should pay more attention to ability of companies to manage their capital conservatively. While uranium juniors can offer good value, particularly during periods of rising commodity prices, investing in juniors can also be a nerve wrecking experience during periods of weak uranium prices and negative investor sentiment.
Juniors with strong cash positions and low cash burn rates likely to be better positioned to navigate through the storm. Investors also need to be wary of companies with weak balance sheets and extended exploration programs that may require external funding over the next six to twelve months. Over the last 18 months financing options have been limited and come at increasingly higher costs. The equity offerings that have been completed have come with much greater share of dilution than would have been expected even a year ago.
We note that, while a strong balance sheet can offer some support for juniors in an ugly investment climate, by itself it does not guarantee share price outperformance. It is only one of many factors affecting company share performance. Our recent review of uranium juniors (see below) revealed that post Fukushima accident an average uranium junior with lower cash burn rate and higher cash balance (relative to their market capitalization) has outperformed, but only marginally.
And while other factors affecting share performance are at play for our sample set, we believe that, all else being equal, stronger balance sheet and conservative capital management should provide better protection to investors during periods of prolonged market weakness.
Companies considered in this report: Denison Mines (NYSEMKT:DNN), Bannerman Resources, Fission Energy, Strathmore Minerals (OTC:STHJF, Strateco Resources, UEX Corp (OTCPK:UEXCF), Uranium Energy (NYSEMKT:UEC), Uranium Resources (NASDAQ:URRE), Ur-Energy (NYSEMKT:URG), Uranerz (NYSEMKT:URZ).
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Guitar Hero III 4 Wii – a closer look
Here it is, the first Guitar Hero game for the wii, with over 70 songs and included online play this game is sure to be a hit.
Guitar Hero III for the Wii will be the "unique" one of the bunch as it's the only version that requires players to plug in a Wii remote before they can start rocking out.
The back of the Wii guitar has a compartment that's made specifically for the Wii remote. It only takes a few seconds for preparation before rocking: plug the connector into the bottom of the controller, rest the controller face down, put the wrist strap in the handy nook, and snap the compartment door back on. Easy.
The final product
The Wii version of the Guitar Hero guitar is essentially the same shape as the Les Paul Gibson guitar that will ship with the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game.
This updated, wireless guitar has a few unseen features, most notably the ability to pop off the neck for easy storage (and presumably upgrading purposes) as well as the ability to take off the faceplate so you can swap on available, customizable replacements. The device has been improved since the past versions of Guitar Hero: the "flapping" sound of strumming has been muffled significantly, and the buttons have been slightly modified with slightly smaller and slicker buttons to make it easier to maneuver along them quickly.
Along with the storage place for the Wii remote, the Wii version of the guitar has one other addition: an analog stick. Why? Well, when your Wii remote's plugged into the guitar, you lose the Wiimote's pointing ability – the analog stick is for players to maneuver the Wii's menu system so they can select the game while the Wiimote's properly plugged into the guitar.
What the Wii Remote/Guitar combo gets the game is, naturally, the inherent ability to be a wireless controller right out of the box since it's essentially using all the wireless tech in the remote to talk with the Wii system. The motion detection for when you want to trigger the star power in-game (by lifting the controller) is now provided by the accelerometer within the Wii Remote. But this combo also adds a couple of features that won't be in the other versions of Guitar Hero. First: rumble. The Wii version will be the only Guitar Hero game that will feature force-feedback thanks to the rumble in the controller, and believe it or not, in IGN's hands-on, you really could feel the guitar shake to the beat when you rocked out with Star Power, as well as "buzz" when crazy effects are going on in the game.
The second feature? The Wii Remote speaker is used for the game's "squelch" when you miss a note. Hearing it come from your guitar makes two player co-op and two player competition a bit more fun since you can easily tell which player's the one that's screwing up the notes – if player one misses a few notes, the "squelch" will come from his guitar and not player two's. Players can bring the squelching back to the television speaker by turning off the remote's speakers – since the mis-note sound effect is integral to the game, it will recognize if you've kicked off your Wiimote speakers and send the sound back to the main audio output.
The Wii version of Guitar Hero III is essentially the same design as what's being produced for the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. The same track list on the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions will apply to the Wii edition, which means more than 70 different songs across the different eras of rock. Metallica, AFI, Guns 'n Roses… even the Beastie Boys. In past versions of Guitar Hero, cover bands handled the track listing, but in Guitar Hero 3, more than 70% of the songs are the actual master recordings. So when you play, say, Paint it Black from the Rolling Stones, it's the actual decades-old master tuned for play in the Guitar Hero engine.
The Wii version will be more in line with the PlayStation 2 game, with visuals running at 480p and widescreen at 60 frames per second. Naturally, during most of the game you're watching the notes come flying at you down the center of the screen, so much of what's going on around that – from the motion captured performers to the animated crowds to the spectacular effects happening on-stage – is more for the observers. And in the demo with a close-to-final version of the game, Guitar Hero III on the Wii never skipped a beat when pushing all those visual effects. One noticeable benefit: loadtimes are damn quick between menus and in-game challenges… you might not have much time to rest those fingers.
The first Wii shot shows the game will run in widescreen at 480p.
Multiplayer is a huge focus for the third iteration of the Guitar Hero franchise, so you'll definitely want to invest in a second Wii guitar to take advantage of the co-op and competitive modes in Guitar Hero III. That's right: competition. There are a few modes in Guitar Hero III where you'll be able to screw with the other person. Earn a power-up after a successful string of notes and you'll be able to do stuff like temporarily increase the opponent's difficulty level, double up his notes, shake his screen for a few seconds, or "break" one of his strings that'll require him to whack the whammy bar or one of the guitar buttons to fix the problem.
The Nintendo Wii version of the game will support the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, and though both Vicarious Visions and Red Octane are remaining tightlipped about the features within, every indication led us to believe that it's safe to assume that at least a few of the modes, both co-op and competitive, will be playable over the Internet. Which features, and whether or not the Wii version will have downloadable content, remains up in the air. Unfortunately, during IGN's playtime with the Wii game, they had to skip over the "Nintendo WFC" option in the menu. Damn.
Nintendo's pushing a lot of attention to the casual gamer with its Wii system, and the Guitar Hero design fits that market like a glove. We wouldn't be surprised to see the Wii version top the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions in sales when they all ship this fall.
We think you'll agree that Guitar Hero on Wii is looking to rock as hard as its competitors.
August 30, 2007 at 3:57 pm
Yeah, I think it's settled. I'll get the Wii version instead of the 360 version.
August 30, 2007 at 4:22 pm
Yeah, I think its settled. I'll play my real guitar instead of these fake ones. Thanks!! (in the smug tone from SP episode)
August 30, 2007 at 4:58 pm
i hope the guitar is sold separatly, so i can buy the bundle (game+guitar) and an aditional guitar.. also, u hope the wii version to be cheaper… just think how much redoctane is saving by using the wiimote
August 30, 2007 at 5:09 pm
I agree on the cheapness of the product as the remote is basically doing most of the work that the guitar used to. This also might mean that since you have to plug the remote into the guitar it should cost a little bit more for that technology especially since the other two systems will be more similar. Who knows but I'd like to think we should get a less expensive guitar since ours has been essentially gutted out. This will surely make up for the sorry sales of Madden 08 which apparently no one in the US cares for. I see Japanese, American casual audiences alike getting into this.
August 31, 2007 at 4:57 am
I asked at my local GameStop a few days back (when I went to pick up MP3), and they confirmed for me that the Wii version of GHIII is $10 (us) cheaper than the other versions.
So.. yeah.. i'm definately getting this version. The lack of high def visuals really doesn't matter for this game at all, it's about the gameplay.
August 31, 2007 at 4:58 am
Oops, hit send to soon…
But my main question, why did they put an analog stick on the guitar for menu navigation? Couldn't they have just lety you use the D-pad on the wiimote you have plugged in to the guitar? Or are they refering to navigating the Wii console menu?
September 4, 2007 at 7:14 am
I believe is the best virtual game of the world
November 20, 2007 at 10:17 am
hey do u think u could scan the faceplate and send it to my email cause im working on making skins for the wii faceplate and i need a life size copy to work with, so plz do it and try not to shrink it
December 17, 2007 at 1:48 am
Hey music I can play a real guitar as well, I to am hesitant on buying a plastic guitar .Mastering a real guitar is so much more gratifying ,i'm sure of it! But I like to play games as well and guitar hero intrigues me .I'll probably be buying one soon .After all this is the only Gibson for 89$ i've ever seen lmao!
March 23, 2008 at 8:35 pm
I bought a guitar hero bundle and an additional guitar and both whammys stopped working on them. They were bought seperate and at two different places. It was very annoying. Has anyone experienced similar problem?
September 2, 2008 at 7:42 pm
This is probably a stupid question, but can you somehow get around not having to remove the remote from the guitar if you want to play other games. It comes out easy enough but is still a pain each time I want to play another game. Or is it just me being stupid and if so, how do I make the other remote the #1 remote?
October 28, 2008 at 10:11 am
I just got guitar hero 3 for the wii and really wana play rolling stones paint it black but cant gt to it help???!!!its got a choice of like 4 or 8 songs and cant find stones newere?!!! oh yeh also how do you buy things from the store? if you could gt back to me id b really grateful thanx

Moves to give Westminster's sleaze watchdog greater powers to investigate politicians' private lives were blocked last night by MPs.
Tory Charles Walker, who led opposition to the plans, claimed it would lead to a focus on "the bedroom and the bottle".
The Commons agreed without a vote to amend a new Code of Conduct to prevent the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards looking into allegations which related purely to MPs' "private and personal lives".
The proposed set of rules stated: "The Code does not seek to regulate the conduct of Members in their purely private and personal lives or in the conduct of their wider public lives unless such conduct significantly damages the reputation and integrity of the House of Commons as a whole or of its Members generally."
But MPs agreed without a vote to the change proposed by Mr Walker (Broxbourne) and backed by senior colleagues including Tory 1922 committee chairman Graham Brady and former Liberal Democrat leader Sir Menzies Campbell, adding a line specifying that the standards commissioner "may not investigate a specific matter... which relates only to the conduct of a Member in their private and personal lives".
Mr Walker said: "Over the weekend I wracked my brain to try and imagine scenarios in Members' private lives that would trigger the interest of the commissioner. I'm afraid I could only come up with two things: the bedroom and the bottle, because as in common with most, these are the two weaknesses that seem most likely to compromise MPs in their private lives."
Without his amendment, Mr Walker said: "Every sexual peccadillo, domestic dispute or unguarded cross word will lead to tabloid calls for the commissioner to take action."
He added: "I am fully aware MPs can do bad and unethical things in their capacity as MPs and this is why these standards and the code of conduct are so important.
"But really, as importantly, I'm also aware that people can do silly and very stupid things regardless of who they are because none of us were born angels or saints. Therefore, I strongly believe that the House should confine itself to worrying about the matters directly pertaining to the job of being an elected representative and not those that relate to general human weakness or stupidity."
Kevin Barron, Labour Chairman of the Committee on Standards and Privileges, argued that the amendment should not be made to the code, but should be placed in the guidance to the document.
"We can revisit it in terms of guidance to the code to make sure that the House has some security that nobody who was doing the job of commissioner can go foraging into areas that would be unfair," he said.

Rolando Jorge Pires da Fonseca (born 31 August 1985), known simply as Rolando, is a Portuguese footballer who plays for French club Olympique de Marseille as a central defender.
Club career[edit]
Rolando was born in São Vicente, Cape Verde. After beginning his career in the youth ranks of lowly S.C. Campomaiorense, he finished his football formation with Lisbon's C.F. Os Belenenses, which he joined at nearly 18. In his Primeira Liga debut, on 28 August 2004, he played 90 minutes and scored a goal in a 3–0 home win against C.S. Marítimo.
Rolando went on to become an essential defensive figure onwards, appearing in all 30 games in the 2007–08 season as the club finished in eighth place.
On 15 April 2008, FC Porto confirmed that Rolando had agreed to part ways with Belenenses and join them on a four-year contract.[1][2] In his first season he quickly beat competition from veteran Pedro Emanuel, partnering Bruno Alves in the centre and netting three times in 28 matches as the northerners won the league and the domestic cup; in the 2009 summer, the club acquired an additional 10% of his economic rights, and the player also extended his link until 30 June 2014.[3]
In 2010–11, Rolando rarely missed a game for Porto, who won another national championship. On 17 February 2011 he opened the score at Sevilla FC through a header, in an eventual 2–1 win for the season's UEFA Europa League,[4] which ended in conquest.
Rolando started the 2011–12 campaign in scoring fashion, netting both Porto goals in the season's Portuguese Supercup, a 2–1 win against Vitória de Guimarães in Aveiro.[5] On 30 January 2013, completely ostracized by manager Vítor Pereira as practically all Portuguese players, he was transferred to S.S.C. Napoli in the Serie A, being loaned until June.[6]
On 10 August 2013, Internazionale confirmed the signing of Rolando in a season-long loan, for €600,000.[7][8] He scored his first goal for the club on 27 October, contributing to a 4–2 home win over Hellas Verona FC.[9]
In February 2015, after spending the first half of the new campaign ousted from the squad due to a run-in with the board of directors after he refused to join the team's pre-season,[10][11] Rolando was loaned to R.S.C. Anderlecht until June.[12]
On 1 September 2015, Rolando was signed by Olympique de Marseille.[13]
International career[edit]
Although born in Cape Verde, Rolando moved to Portugal at age of 14 and became a naturalized citizen in 2006. He immediately started playing for the nation's under-21s, for whom he appeared at the 2007 UEFA European Championship.
On 11 February 2009, Rolando was first called up to the full side but did not make his debut, in a friendly match with Finland in Faro (1–0 win). He was selected for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, but did not leave the bench.

Christmas is no day off for the first family, because according to Michelle ObamaMichelle ObamaDems bringing young undocumented immigrants to Trump's speech Week ahead: Net neutrality supporters rally on rule's second anniversary 5 ways politics could steal the show at Oscars MORE, everyone has to work it to snag a present from Santa.
The first lady revealed one of the Obamas' yearly Christmas traditions with friends and family, telling Yahoo! Shine, "Instead of giving gifts, we have sort of a grab bag of gifts … And in order to get your gift from the grab bag — and these are very inexpensive gifts — you have to perform. Sing, dance, hula-hoop, do a skit, do an imitation, it doesn't matter what, but everybody has to do something."
Aha! Maybe that's how Michelle Obama perfected her hula-hooping skills (in 2009 she completed an impressive 142 hoop rotations right in front of reporters' eyes).
Jill Biden also gave a peek into what Christmas morning looks like in the vice president's residence, saying that "no one can go downstairs until Joe goes down first … So Joe checks that Santa's been there and everything's OK. And then we all go down the steps as a family."

Response to the Wall Street Journal's "655,000 War Dead?"
October 20, 2006
Dear Friends:
I submitted a letter to the editors of the Wall Street Journal on October 18 regarding an opinion article by Steven E. Moore ("655,000 War Dead?," October 18, 2006). Les Roberts submitted his own letter to address some of the statements inaccurately attributed to him by Mr. Moore in his article. We hope the paper will publish both responses shortly.
Mr. Moore did not question our methodology, but rather the number of clusters we used to develop a representative sample. Our study used 47 randomly selected clusters of 40 households each. In his critique, Mr. Moore did not note that our survey sample included 12,801 people living in 47 clusters, which is the equivalent to a survey of 3,700 randomly selected individuals. As a comparison, a 3,700-person survey is nearly 3 times larger than the average U.S. political survey that reports a margin of error of +/-3%.
Our study also produced a range of plausible values that reflect the margin of error in our estimate. These values are included in our study, which was published Oct. 11, 2006, in the peer-reviewed, scientific journal, The Lancet. Using our 47 clusters, we estimated that 655,000 excess deaths have occurred in Iraq since March 2003 within a range of plausible values from 393,000 to 943,000 deaths. Even our lowest estimate indicates that a significant amount of death has occurred in Iraq, which is not being measured by other surveillance methods, such as news accounts or counting bodies in morgues.
It is clear that using more clusters would have given our estimate a greater degree of precision, assuming we also increased our sample size. For example, had we used 470 clusters, our range of plausible values would have been about 3 times narrower. However, there is a trade off between obtaining meaningful data and ensuring the safety of our surveyors. Surveying more clusters would have also meant more risk to the survey team.
In addition, Mr. Moore claimed that the Hopkins study did not include any demographic data. The survey did collect demographic data, such as age and sex, related to violence, although they are not the same details Mr. Moore's company would have collected for public opinion polls. The characteristics of households in our study are similar to other accounts of households in Iraq and the region, though the household size for the 2006 study is smaller (6.9) than found in the 2004 survey (7.9).
Mr. Moore apparently agrees with us that a cluster survey is the preferred approach to quantifying post-invasion violent deaths in contrast to counts of deaths from newspaper articles and morgues or not counting at all. We hope he will join us in our recommendations that an independent body with adequate resources monitor deaths among civilians in conflict—using scientific methods, as was done in our survey.

3 hour bus ride? That's a lot of time taken out of a terrorist plot. Do you have any idea how much evil can HAPPEN in three hours? Hot dang. That's a whole 8th of a season. Just ask Jack Bauer.
3 hours is a lot if this was going to be a hit and run attack like done recently in Taj hotel and elsewhere. But you have the understand the complete context here. India has had attacks which were done much differently. There have been cases when the terrorists were *in* India for days and sometimes months. Some of those attacks have cost more lives (mumbai train blasts come to my mind) than the recent one. And these attacks are much more common.
So, yes, you are right if the cops are only targeting Taj Mahal sort of attacks. But thats 'not enough', as I said.
Unless this policy is applied throughout the country, the city of Mumbai getting rid of unsecured wifi access points will not solve much. A terrorist can take a 3 hour bus ride to Pune to get unsecured wifi access. Mumbai itself is too big, are they talking about only the city or the whole suburbia included? Thane? New Mumbai?
Sounds like a scare tactic to me. A publicity stunt to make people more aware of consequences of unsecured wifi.
Sun plans to cut as many as 6,000 jobs as the company tries to cope with plunging sales of server computers to financial firms, market-share losses to bigger competitors and a spiraling stock price.
... Sun is the third company in Santa Clara, at the heart of California's Silicon Valley, to cut jobs this week as technology companies cope with the worst sales slump since the dot-com bubble burst in 2000. Applied Materials Inc., the largest maker of chip-production machinery, announced plans to cut 1,800 jobs, and mobile-phone chip builder National Semiconductor Corp. said it will shed about 5 percent of the staff.

Gearing up for the postseason
Hello everyone! This is my first blog of the season and I am so thankful I have been given this opportunity to share what goes on at Easton Stadium with our Bruins. My name is Ally Carda, and I am a pitcher/utility player in my junior year. This season has sure been an exciting one so far and we aren't done yet.
This past weekend, we just finished up our last Pac-12 series against Arizona State in Tempe, and it was a battle every day. On Day 1, we lost in a close game 2-0. Afterward we talked with our coaches about what we could have done better, yet still focused on all the little things we did well as a team. I believe focusing on the positives has been a huge part of why we have been successful and why we can bounce back quickly after a loss.
Day 2 of the series was an intense battle in extra innings and we came out on top 9-5. On the last day, we continued to make adjustments and ended up winning 9-2. It was a great weekend of ball against the always tough Sun Devils.
As we finished up Pac-12 play, we also recognized our two seniors, Jessica Hall and Alyssa Tiumalu. These two have been outstanding for the past three years, and it has been so much fun playing with them. This past week, both seniors took part in our traditional "senior practice," which means being able to show up late and coming dressed in the craziest outfit you can put together -- that is and still be able to move and throw a softball!
These two seniors are dear to my heart and I can't wait to see where life takes them after softball. Jessica has been my pitcher in crime for the past three years, and I am going to miss her goofy self in the bullpen with me. She is one of the most down to earth, caring and funny people I have ever met, and I know she will do big things in her life.
Alyssa has been through a lot in her four years. She has faced multiple injuries that have scared us all but still has managed to find a way to help this team out. I commend and respect her for that and for continuing to work hard. I am going to miss her, especially since I have been playing softball with her since we were 12! But I can't wait to see what new and exciting things life has planned for her.
But, folks, the season is not over yet and I am excited to see how this team continues to fight against anyone in the country.
Regionals here we come! GO BRUINS!

But yes, the 4-2-5 is a nickel D and we have seen it for the last 20 years under Lebeau. And they have used Harrison and Wood on the outside. They just get rid of fat ass on non running downs. I don't think definitions really matter, sometimes even in the 4-2-5 there is only ONE downed lineman and everyone else is standing up and moving around.
And I do think Woodley and Harrison get swallowed up by the ends more these days because the rules have clearly changed to slow them down. They are allowed to hold more. If not for that they would each be getting 15 sacks per year and in the passing oriented league there's no way the NFL is going to allow that.
At the site that is not to be named Tomlin talks about The Big Nickel package they choose to use against the Jets, that it provides versatility for them and allows them to match up from a personal standpoint and have a big body presence. He also says that they can use 3 corners and 1 safety in that base package. Tomlin claims there are more packages on the way for the season, because they have to have a variety. Good read encouraging info.

Tomlin mentioned in his PC that the big nickel was meant to provide some help against the run. The first time I saw it was third and medium - maybe 3 or 5 to go, something like that. It makes some sense -- keeping Casey in there to clog the middle while counting on a rush from the rest. I'm surprised to see that McClendon is not a part of that package - he's among the more effective inside pass rushers on the team.

I'd rotate the 4 bigs. But I think you'd get the most flexibility with Woodley and Keisel on the ends because one is a big OLB and the other is athletic enough to be an OLB.
I'd rotate a lot the way the Giants and Eagles do. Those teams get a lot of pressure out of their big guys because they're always rotating them.
It's nice to talk about this but its for naught if the QB goes no huddle and we can't get the personnel on the field. Just sayin'

Packing for international air travel usually means bringing only the essential items in order to save room, limit the number of items that can be lost or stolen, and to travel lightly simply because it's easier. A lot of what you'll pack depends on the climate you're traveling to and the activities you'll be doing there. A raincoat may be an essential item in one destination and a waste of space in another. A good rule to follow is to pack only the essentials that you don't want to have to purchase once you're there.
What not to Bring: This can be almost as important as the essential items to carry. Don't travel abroad with any item that will either draw attention to you or be irreplaceable if you lose it, including your wedding bands and engagement rings. Expensive jewelry, family heirlooms, and extravagant clothing are all good examples. You should never travel with your social security card, birth certificate, or any other irreplaceable paperwork.
Passport: This item may seem pretty obvious, and you won't get very far without it, but many travelers carry a photocopy of their passport and extra passport photos in a safe place apart from the passport in case it's stolen. Having these items, including proof of your identity and lawful entrance into the country you're in can save you a lot of headaches when getting a stolen passport replaced outside the country in which it was issued.
Travel Insurance: Travel insurance can be purchased on a trip-by-trip basis or as a multiple trip package for those who travel frequently. Its purpose is to protect the traveler against losses incurred by any number of unforeseen circumstances that could happen when outside one's home region, including medical expenses, accidents, emergencies, theft of personal property, and even cancellation of a trip in which money has already been invested. Travel insurance does not cover things like auto insurance for one's rental car.
Traveler's Checks: Traveler's checks seem old fashioned in a world where everything seems to be instant and electronic, but they're actually still the safest, most secure way to protect yourself against the dangers of traveling with cash. You can exchange the checks for cash currency in another country for use at places that don't accept them, without ever having to carry large amounts of cash on your person. While traveler's checks can be stolen just like anything else, they're hard to use without a matching ID and can be voided before use if you copy and save the serial numbers on each check first.
Prescriptions: This is an item to be double and triple checked because they'll be very difficult to fill once you leave the country. Patients on extended trips who foresee needing prescription refills abroad may be able to make arrangements through their doctor ahead of time to travel with extra supplies or fill a prescription in another country.
Device Chargers: Your phone, camera, computer, iPod, and anything else you charge on a daily basis will need to be charged while traveling, too. Limiting the number of devices you're bringing can help a lot. For example, a smartphone with a camera, MP3 player, and Internet access can turn four or more devices into one. Just make sure you bring an extra charger for that one device in case you lose the first.
Calling Card: International roaming charges can be very steep, so many travelers opt out of mobile phone service altogether when traveling abroad, even if they carry their phones for other purposes. While your phone's service provider can offer you an international calling plan on extended trips, many travelers limit phone time by carrying a good old fashioned calling card for emergencies and keeping in touch with loved ones.
Corrective Lenses: Much like oral and topical prescriptions from a pharmacy, you won't be able to get new prescription lenses in another country without a big cost to you and an even bigger hassle. If you wear contacts, bring one or more extra pairs in addition to your backup glasses. If you wear glasses exclusively, get a second pair with cheaper frames to have on hand as a backup.
Swimsuit: While you can buy a swimsuit almost anywhere, finding one that looks and fits perfectly is next to impossible, so pack an extra if you have it. It's the one thing people always seem to forget!
Most importantly, bring your thirst for adventure, appreciation of other cultures, and a positive attitude. Bon voyage!
For those living in the greater Los Angeles area I'm sure that the first airport that comes to mind when planning your next trip is LAX, the problem with this is that everyone in the greater Los Angeles area thinks this way and it shows when you arrive to the lengthy security and baggage check-in lines. It's situations like this that make alternative airports such as Ontario International a diamond in the rough, whether for business or for pleasure Ontario services direct flights to some of the nation's top cities.
Like LAX, Ontario Int. offers flights 24 hours a day all throughout the week allowing you more freedom than usual when planning your departure and arrival times which is perfect considering that both of Airport Parking Connection's partners:Sunrise Airport Parking and the Park and Fly Hilton Ontario offer 24/7 complimentary shuttle services to and from the airport creating even more traveling convenience. With the quick turnaround times on baggage claim, short security lines and a variety of food/beverage venues to choose from Ontario airport is a nice calm alternative to the busy norm of LAX.
So next time you need to travel out of the Los Angeles area whether for pleasure or a short business trip don't forget the Ontario diamond in the rough along with Airport Parking Connection's partners who will allow you to avoid the hassle of finding someone to drop you off and pick you up from the airport.
While taking your children on vacation can be one of the best experiences of their lives (and yours) navigating the airport can be a stress inducing activity that may leave you feeling exhausted and spent. If you are traveling somewhere with one or more kids, use some of these ideas to help your trip go smoother than you ever thought possible. Here are some ideas for what you can bring when flying out of Denver International Airport or Detroit International Airport.
With longer wait times at the airport than ever before, you need to make sure that you are keeping your children occupied or they will drive you (and everyone else) nuts. Bring as many coloring books, handheld electronic games, dolls and toys that you need to make sure that they are happy and their attention is occupied for those long waits.
A hungry kid is not a happy one and this can lead to whining and crying that can really make the airport experience unpleasant. Bring some crackers or cookies along with you, as well as some cut up veggies so that your kids have something to snack on while you wait. This also saves you cash, which is very important when traveling with kids.
Anyone with kids knows that doing anything with them can take double as much time as it should. Kids do not always understand that they need to have a sense of urgency, especially at the airport when you are running late for your flight. If you are traveling with children, ensure that you are leaving for the airport much earlier than you need to. Having plenty of time will help to cut down on your stress level and you will not have to hurry your children along as much.
Make sure to have all of your tickets and identification cards in order and ready to go when you need them. You can bring a small pocketbook that is just for holding IDs and other pertinent flight information and then put it in a prominent spot in your purse or carry-on bag. Having everything in one place will also help you get through the airport much easier, as you will not have to dig through all of your things every time someone needs to see yours or your children's IDs.
If possible, travel with another adult so that you can keep better track of luggage and kids. Assign one adult to luggage duty while the other handles kids, which can significantly help to make security checks and getting through the airport much smoother. If your child is able to walk, they can go through metal detectors on their own. If not, you need to carry your child through, so be prepared for this.
Flying with kids does not have to be the nightmare experience that many parents say it is. All you have to do is plan your timing carefully, bring plenty of activities for kids, and get to the airport early. If you are looking to make the airport experience even less stressful, try reserving your denver airport parking or detroit airport parking online with Airport Parking Connection, Canopy Airport Parking, and Valet Connections.
Every year, there are must travel to events that are exciting and out of the ordinary. 2012 is no exception, as there are thousands of unique and fun-filled events to check out all over the world. Here are some of the hottest 2012 events you may have already checked out and some that are coming up!
Of course, Mardi Gras is held every single year, but this year is as important as ever. The gulf coast is getting back into the swing of things, and the city of New Orleans is finally back on its feet after the devastating hurricane more than 7 years ago. More people than ever are heading to this wild carnival of fun, so why not check it out this year? The party runs from February 4th to the 21st.
Take a trip to Ireland at the end of March for the grand opening of a new shipyard museum celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Titanic. View never before seen artifacts from the ship and enjoy being a part of history.
Come enjoy the 75th anniversary of this iconic bridge in San Francisco over Memorial Day weekend. The annual Golden Gate festival will be bigger than ever as locals and tourists alike eat, drink and dance in celebration of this large and beautiful industrial work of art.
This huge celebration is in honor of Queen Elizabeth II's 60 years of leadership. There will be 1,000 boats in a pageant on the Thames River to commemorate the queen's rein, as well as festivals, food, drink and music. This will take place the first week of June.

You can also decide not to do any expensive shopping. One aspect of travel that you cannot simply cut out of your budget is eating. Food can be one of the biggest expenses when you are traveling, but if you follow some of these tips you can slash your food budget in half without starving.
Research Restaurants Beforehand
One of the best things that you can do is to hop online before you leave for your vacation and check out restaurants in the area where you will be vacationing. If you are staying in a popular tourist spot, look for restaurants that are off the beaten path. Some sites allow you to filter by price range, so that you can see how much you will pay per meal. This goes a long way in helping you to select which dining establishments are worth your time and which should be completely ignored.
Choose a Hotel with Free Breakfast
Often, the more expensive hotels do not have a free continental breakfast, while the affordable ones do such as the Renaissance Arlington Capital View or the Sheraton Crystal City Hotel around the DCA National Airport for example. This is great, as you can not only save money on your room, but you can get all of your morning meals for free. If the hotel that has the best price for you does not have free breakfast, do not pay the high fees that many hotels charge for food. Instead head outside and find a café or small coffee shop that carries breakfast foods.
Make Lunch Your Splurge Meal
If there is a restaurant that you are dying to try that is not exactly budget friendly, go there for lunch instead of dinner. Lunch portions are often smaller, but have better prices. This way, you can try fancier places without shelling out as much cash.
Drink Water
Fancy cocktails, beer, wine and soda can all cost you a lot of extra money when you are dining out. Tourist areas often charge extremely high prices for these drinks and many restaurants do not even give you free refills on soda. Stick to water when you are traveling and you can save a lot of money. Water is also healthier for you, which is a great bonus!
Purchase Snacks at Grocery Stores
Instead of buying snacks from expensive cafés, purchase munchies and other things that you can keep in your hotel room at a local grocery store. Then, you will have the in-between meal food items that you need without having to break your entire food budget. Purchase bottled water, sodas and juices as well at the local grocery store, so that you can stay hydrated without having to buy these beverages at triple their usual price in the restaurants.
You really can save money on dining when traveling, as long as you make wise decisions and plan ahead!
