Before I even get into the WHOLE story here, I bet you're interested in the NEW BENEFITS with this latest version!
If you thought the previous System Mechanic made your PC faster, wait until you see this stuff!
You know how somtimes it seems like a really simple program slows your WHOLE computer down? That's because it's using up all your CPU processing power! OptiCore spots these greedy programs and makes sure they only use exactly what they need!
Put simply: Using multiple programs won't slow your computer down anymore!
Programs use RAM to store temporary data so you can repeatedly access it more quickly. Except... some programs don't understand the "temporary" part, and TRAP your RAM even when they don't need it!
RAMJet uses a 3-tier system to free RAM so your PC isn't slowed down by programs you aren't even using anymore!
This gives you faster launch times, program speeds, and overall performance!
Do you know what disk defragmentation is?
With AcceleWrite, you don't have to! It optimizes the "location" that data is saved so your computer spends less time tracking it down later! With AcceleWrite, you won't have to run Disk Defrag anymore; it intelligently places data where a defragger would put them in the first place!
Not only will this keep your PC fast, it will extend the life of your hard drive too! YES!
But then... that's just the new stuff. What about everything ELSE System Mechanic has to offer?
Well, just look below!
Bring your computer back to its peak with this amazing SOFTWARE SUPERCHARGER! We're talking lightning fast boot-ups, programs that load instantly, and an error-free existence.
Sounds good? Maybe you want more?
Oh, we've GOT more.

Need EVEN MORE?!
How about computer security made EASY? Turn your computer into Fort Knox. Hackers won't stand a CHANCE! Keep your personal files PRIVATE AND SECURE.
System Mechanic is the ULTIMATE PC RENEWAL for ALL your computers!
Bring your computer back to its peak with this amazing SOFTWARE SUPERCHARGER!

This is the one piece of software EVERYONE needs to have! It's THAT simple!
The BRAND NEW System Mechanic will breathe new life into an old PC. Heck, it'll even fix up the PC you just purchased!
And after you get your PC supercharged, it'll KEEP it that way.
It. Does. EVERYTHING!
NOTHING compares to System Mechanic. Period.
Okay, so System Mechanic has a LOT of stuff. I mean, a LOT!
Here's a tiny look at what you're getting when you install this software:
That's Only A FRACTION Of The Features!
That list there is about as simplified as it can get... and it STILL doesn't show you everything that comes with the software!
From faster bootups to faster loading to faster Internet to faster SSDs to, well, faster everything!
It cleans the mess. It fixes the errors. It even removes the junk.
And the best part? It MAINTAINS your computer afterward. With the built-in anti-intrustion tools and the system maintenence features, once you get your PC lightning fast, it will STAY lightning fast!
The moment you pop the disc in your drive, it's gonna BLOW YOU AWAY!
No hunting for updates! And no outdated features! You get the latest and the greatest.
The second thing you'll probably notice is this:
Oh no!! But wait! This is a lot more common than you might think. Even EXPERTS can't prevent computers from degrading without software like System Mechanic.
For everything you might know about your computer, there's at least a hundred more potential problems lurking around the corner.
But, now that you have System Mechanic, it only takes one click to get ALL those problems out of your life forever.
That's the one-way ticket to a lifetime of carefree, computer BLISS.
If you want System Mechanic to give your PC the works, that's all you have to do.
But maybe you're a little more tech-savvy than most of us. Want to get under the hood with it? NO PROBLEM! Every single tool and utility with System Mechanic can be used manually to allow you total control over what it fixes and what it leaves alone.
It's the perfect program for ALL levels of technical experience.
Either way, when you let System Mechanic do it's work, you're going to get to computer paradise:
Remember, it's never what you know that hurts your PC. It's the million little things you could have NEVER expected.
But nothing surprises System Mechanic! It sees every nook and cranny and makes them sparkle.
Want a sneak peek at how this incredible software gives your PC the power-wash you always dreamed of? If I tried to talk about EVERY feature of System Mechanic, we'd be here until the Sun burnt out. Get ready for some major highlights that'll have your jaw dropping.
Booting up your PC is always a pain. No matter what you do, you could cook a Thanksgiving dinner before your computer is done starting. It doesn't have to be like that.
By eliminating unnecessary or even HAZARDOUS programs from your startup, there'll be no more watching the clock, wondering when you can actually begin to use your computer. And without all these wasted resources going to unneeded programs, your computer will stay fast after booting.
Do you LIKE some of your startup programs? No worries. If you don't want System Mechanic to take control, you can go in and see each and every program it wants to disable. Regardless of which path you take, it's easy and fast to get your PC booting properly.
Oh, and do you ever get those annoying error messages when you boot up? Chances are after this, you'll never see them again! YES!
In addition to startup programs, there's ALWAYS just TONS of files and applications that end up on your PC. Sometimes they came installed with the computer, other times they sneak in through vulnerabilities or hidden in other software.
No matter how they go there, they are taking up GIGs of space!!
Don't worry, CRUDD Remover is on the job.
All this CRUDD (Commonly Redundant or Unnecessary Decelerators and Destabilizers) adds up into one giant, super slow, gunk of a mess.
Even if you knew what programs were the trouble makers, it would take AGES to manually hunt through and clean up all those files. System Mechanic removes the work and eliminates all that unwanted mess - in minutes!
This tool is crazy!
Not only are you going to get even MORE speed by removing all that useless junk from your PC, but talk about clearing space! Your hard drive has its limits, so taking this giant burden off its back is going to give you a lot more wiggle room for stuff you DO want.
Surfing the Internet Collects Clutter! Your computer has an "amazing" ability to hold onto a lot of useless stuff that you never even knew it saved. PC Cleanup has your back.
With the push of a button you can clean out tons of wasted space and temporary files that you didn't even know were there to begin with! WOW!
This is the ultimate solution to loaded hard drives.
You can get back hundreds of megabytes in storage space... heck, you might even get a couple GIGABYTES of space back. Maybe you won't need that $200 external hard drive you were thinking about.
Now you're saving space AND money!
Computers always manage to have a ton of errors without any indication of how to solve them. How can anyone expect you to fix a problem when all you get is a string of numbers and a giant OK button. Let System Mechanic take care of it for you!
From unintelligible error messages to mysterious lockups and even full-on system crashes, System Mechanic will find the solution.
The All-In-One Repair Tool came straight out of your dreams and now it's a reality. This program will AUTOMATICALLY fix pretty much any problem your computer throws at it. No error is too obscure for System Mechanic.
This is the total tune-up, repair, supercharge, computer fixing miracle.
EVEN IF YOUR COMPUTER WON'T BOOT PROPERLY! SERIOUSLY! You can use the System Mechanic CD to boot and recover your computer. It's a life-saver.
If just cleaning up junk didn't make your computer as fast as you wanted it, System Mechanic is only warming up.
It's got a toolbox FULL of utilities to make your computer so fast it won't be street legal.
SSD Accelerator (BRAND NEW!) - Take your SSD to the next level by automatically maximizing performance and speed without sacrificing anything!
Designated Drivers - Out of date drivers can make your computer run sub-optimally, or sometimes make devices not work at all. Let this utility take the wheel for you and get all your drivers safely up to date.
Memory Mechanic - The more you use your computer, the more memory that will be taken up. Sometimes memory fragments or doesn't release properly and you run into problems that can even cause your computer to shut down. No more! Memory Mechanic will make sure your system memory is operating at full throttle!
Registry Tuner - Errors in system registry can range from causing lockups to total system failure. Registry Tuner will hunt through and clean up as many errors as it can find to get your PC running faster.
Registry Compactor - System Mechanic never leaves a job half-done. After cleaning out the registry, the compactor makes sure that the gaps left from removed bloat are closed so your computer doesn't waste time dialing through empty registry entries.
Just running ONE of these things is going to give you astonishing speed. But when you get them all going? Oh man, you're going to think someone slipped a supercomputer under your desk.
But that's not all, honestly it's barely even HALF of the performance tools alone.
Speed is great, but how about some raw, mind-blowing power?
If you use some serious software, or even just want to get the most out of your PC as possible, System Mechanic has the adrenaline shot your computer needs!
EnergyBooster! Take your PC to the next level with this incredible tool. By automatically turning off unnecessary background programs, your computer's limited resources are going to be free to turn their attention to the tasks YOU need them on!
Don't let worthless background processes hog your memory or processor, use them how you want them.
If you do high-quality video, audio, web design, ANYTHING, you'll immediately notice how ridiculously fast EnergyBooster makes your PC.
Interested in something BRAND NEW? System Mechanic is always expanding its armory of tools and this version is no different.
With new AcceleWrite, you'll almost never have to worry about disk fragmentation again. By automatically ensuring optimal storage of files, the creeping slowdown that your computer experiences over time from disk defragmentation is a thing of the past!
It does the work for you, which means more time for yourself and a healthier life for your PC.
Hey - maybe you're tired of SUPER SLOW internet?
That's when NetBooster takes the stage. Each Internet connection is unique and your computer can't be pre-configured from the factory for an optimal setup for YOUR system. NetBooster examines your current connection and makes those specific changes so you get MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE.
And remember, if you don't want to go through these individually, System Mechanic can do pretty much everything on its own. It's impossible NOT to get huge gains from running this software, and it's as simple as a few mouse clicks. What more could you ask for?
Especially nowadays, computer security has become a really big issue. You may think you're secure, but new vulnerabilities pop up ALL THE TIME! Even the tiniest of security holes can spell disaster for your privacy or your computer's ability to function. With so much on your computer, there's no excuse for taking risks.
With just one button, System Mechanic will comb your computer for security flaws and fix every single one it finds. Blocking off hackers from entry, you get peace of mind that your files and confidential information are safely protected.
You can NEVER be too secure.
After your vulnerabilities are patched up, what about other kinds of intrusions? Unwanted programs, intrusions, or malware trying to hijack your system. System Guard will be the shield that keeps your PC defended and in tip-top shape.
System Guard does SO MUCH at once. If new programs try to add themselves to your startup, it will let you know. Dangerous programs trying to run? System Guard stops them IMMEDIATELY.
Browsing can be hazardous, but with System Guard, your computer and browser are protected from even the wiliest of hacking attempts. If you've ever had your homepage suspiciously changed or a new toolbar appear out of nowhere, you'll know how important System Guard is!
Privacy is just as important as vulnerabilities when it comes to security. With System Mechanic, you can make sure nothing you do gets to the wrong hands. With the Privacy Cleaner, anything you do can be erased, from browsing or search history to cookies and chat transcripts that websites or programs often automatically save.
Or maybe you need something deleted? I mean... REALLY deleted. The Incinerator will make sure any of your private files, from old taxes to company memos can't be easily recovered by ANYONE.
System Mechanic takes security seriously, and you can rest easy knowing you have the best programs protecting your PC and files.
System Mechanic is loaded with SO MUCH and if you want to, it can be COMPLETELY AUTOMATIC. But if you want to know exactly what it's doing, you can examine every tool to see what it intends to fix or change.
You'd be INSANE not to take advantage of all these amazing tools, but if you want to, you can pick and choose what you use and how you use it.
But that's not all! It comes with a tool to completely customize your PC's operations. From hiding unwanted icons to making your start menu react faster, there's almost nothing out of your control - AMAZING!
System Mechanic looks too good to be true, right? Especially with all the extra free stuff, how can so much power be packed together into one amazing product? Well, you don't have to take our word for it! With over 36 million users and countless awards tell you all you need to know.
Talk About Award Winning!
My laptop was in a mess! It was slow to the point of stagnation at times but a colleague recommended your software and the result was near-magical! Speeds have improved dramatically and it has given me a great feeling of confidence. Michael H.

System Mechanic saved me from having to purchase a whole new computer. Well worth the investment! Arthur H.

This product is much better than Norton Utilities and SystemWorks which I had been using since 1995. Keep up the good work!! Vern H
In my twenty years of personal computing, System Mechanic is one of the best -- if not THE best -- software I have ever installed on a PC. I recommend it without hesitation to all my friends and presentation audiences. Keep up the great work. Bob S.

Boost Speed with System Mechanic
BRAND NEW: LiveBoost™ Technology
Your computer's ability to respond quickly to the operating system and the programs it runs is based on a critical triangle of components: the Central Processing Unit (CPU), RAM and the Storage Drive. If performance at any point on this triangle is impeded, the entire triangle is affected and your computer develops sporadic lags and glitches. LiveBoost Technology opens the door to "performance at the speed of thought," even though today's applications try to aggressively monopolize your computer.
You don't have to be an expert - it's easy to let System Mechanic automatically performs a 229-point diagnostic computer inspection in just a few minutes using over 50 tools to uncover why your PC is running so slowly. Here's a quick look at the dashboard:
- Easy to understand system overview
- Quick or Deep analysis optins
- Comprehensive status gauge
- Clear explanation of each problem
- Straightforward actions to fix all problems or only those you want!
Automatically eliminate each and every root problem affecting your PC's speed and stability
Achieve maximum PC performance with System Mechanic's comprehensive set of tools to address each of the 12 root causes of PC slowdowns. System Mechanic is the only product available that resolves each and every one.
System Mechanic cleans up Windows!
- Cleans over 50 different typs of junk files
- Removes invalid installers and programs
- Wipes internet history, clutter and cache
- Regains thousands of megabytes of hard disk space
PC system-clogging clutter zaps Windows performance
PC system-clogging clutter builds up silently over time in the background from untidy programs, unclean computer shutdowns, and general everyday use. If not regularly cleaned, these junk files can cause the computer to undergo superfluous and wasteful processing that slows you down.
- iolo Labs identified the top 3 ways clutter degrades performance:
- Critical indexes Windows maintains to organize its files become bloated with meaningless junk, causing overall sluggishness during file and program access.
- Useless files are included when defragmenting your hard drives, adding to the time and processing power required.
- Hard drive space is unnecessarily reserved, leading to premature upgrade costs or replacements.
Sweep away junk files and automatically keep Windows spotless
With System Mechanic, you can eliminate wasteful system-clogging clutter and enable patented ActiveCare® technology to keep your PC automatically clutter-free and running at its peak. Your system will start up quicker, work faster, and perform with greater reliability.
Virtually everything you do on a PC is stored in activity logs or leaves a trail, even long after it's been "cleared."
System Mechanic ensures your privacy
- Employs multi-pass military-grade wiping to ensure complete removal of all deleted data
- Defeats forensics recovery techniques
- Permanently and completely removes internet history and cache
- Integrates Incinerator® technology with Windows Recycle Bin for high security
- Cleans up after all major web browsers, online chat, and web toolbars
Why deleting, emptying, and clearing are not enough
Savvy PC users know to "clear the cache and browser history" as a basic privacy precaution, but most are unaware of the multitude of locations where common programs leave a vivid trail of activity that can be financially or personally devastating in the wrong hands.
Deleted files are not really erased - their space is simply marked "available" by Windows, and their contents can persist for months or years, even after you empty the Recycle Bin or format your hard disk!
Wipe files and purge activity logs the right way
Activity log tracks left by dozens of new programs as you use them can be safely and securely wiped away by the improved Privacy Cleaner™ tool in System Mechanic, which now leverages military-grade Incinerator® multi-pass data shredding technology.
System Mechanic safely repairs errors and fragmentation, cleans out clutter, and tunes up your PC, so it runs smoothly, reliably, and up to 300% faster.

System Mechanic knows what to fix
System Mechanic is radically different and much more effective than one-size-fits-all "utility" or "cleaner" type products on the market today. iolo Labs provides intelligent live updates, called Tune-up Definitions™, based on analysis of repair and optimization results from millions of PCs worldwide.
Tune-up Definitions teach System Mechanic about the latest PC performance issues as they manifest and evolve in real time, keeping the product agile, safe, and powerful. It's the brains behind its success, providing intelligence about the impact of specific settings, programs, and services unique to your PC.
Computer viruses, hackers, and other internet dangers continue to pose a high risk, and can wreak havoc by causing permanent computer damage, destroying data, and enabling identity theft. Antivirus and firewall protection are just the first steps to keeping your data safe.
To bolster this protection, take a look at System Mechanic's offerings in the Enhance Protection category (accessed from the Individual Tools pane):

6 to eliminate those pesky Pirates.
34. Thanks Pirates!

"Boys, I'm one of those umpires that misses 'em every once in a while so if it's close, you'd better hit it." Cal Hubbard
Here's a site designed about a decade ago with the help of one of my friends at Cal-Berkeley. It's more accurate than the other magic number sites I've seen because it writes the MLB schedule into the formula. The numbers represent the number necessary to clinch a "tie" and force a one-game playoff (like in 1999). So I always add 1 to the magic number.
At start of play on the morning of August 29, the Reds' magic number for reaching the playoffs is only 29.
". . . acquiring J. Blanton from Oakland for, apparently, Bailey/Cueto, Votto and a lesser prospect. I do it in a second . . . The Reds' equation this year is simple: Make Matt Belisle your #3 starter . . . trade for Blanton, win 85 or more, be in the mix all summer." - Paul Daugherty, Feb. 8, 2008

text: Of course you should get what you feel like, but you have a 9mm you love so I'd encourage you to get the .22. It will give you some variety in your shooting time and OMG yes it's cheaper to shoot! Like almost everybody I have to think a bit about the cost of ammo when I shoot my 9 but with the .22 it's not a factor unless I'm wanting to shoot some serious match-grade stuff. Which is not very often. Lots more practice time and plinking fun. I have a Smith & Wesson 22A and a Ruger Mk III and love shooting them as much as I like shooting my Glock 19. Good luck whatever you decide and congratulations on the Beretta.

Discussion in '2007 Playoffs' started by max, May 6, 2007.
2nd Round Game 3 - At Chicago May 10 9PM tv: ESPN Series moves to Chicago.
Positives coming into this game ( for Detroit): 1) Rasheed should definitely be motivated to put a hurting on the Bulls after being limited to 18 minutes because of foul trouble in game 2. 2) I have a feeling Skiles and the Bulls tried to spring their biggest adjustments on the Pistons in game 2 in an effort to get the split in Detroit. Now the Pistons have 3 days to deal with what they saw and be better prepared for it. 3) The Bulls did some pretty good things in game 2 offensively and defensively, yet they still lost by 20 points. If you were to tell me that the Pistons turned the ball over 9 more times than Chicago, made 21 less free throws, and Rasheed would foul out in 18 minutes while Webber, Mcdyess and Maxiell would have 5 a piece in 26, 25, and 15 minutes of play.... I'd ask you how much the Pistons lost by. Yet they win by 20? That kind of dominance is only obtained when you are simply dealing with a far better team. If the Pistons come out with the same intensity and focus for game 3 that they displayed in games 1 & 2, which I have no reason to believe they won't, the final pages of this game thread should be discussing a Piston team that has a 3-0 series lead.
Reading the Bulls blog comments it seems like the fans have already given up on the series. (blogabull.com) So this game 3 is like the often mentioned by Doug Collins game 3 against the Cavs last year. I would guess that a lot of us aren't completely comfortable with the Piston's dominance....Game 3 is the decisive game.
Game 3 is the game where teams who are blown out in the first two come out to play for pride. It's their best shot at winning a game and at least making it appear they are back in the series. Expect the Bulls best effort in this one. IF we bring ours they don't stand a chance. Based on what I've seen so far, the Pistons get the benefit of the doubt that they will bring it. Oh yeah, gotta give Flip Sr. his props. If they were playing like zombies most of us would call for his head, but he is pushing the right buttons and the guys are motivated so I think he deserves some credit here.
That's right Darth....all of us Flip doubters are going to have to jump to the other side of the fence.
The Bulls only hope is to take back the rebounding edge which the Pistons are dominating right now. If Rip is outrebounding Ben, no way the Bulls are winning a game. Skiles used just about every conventional tool in his arsenal, but he's the type of coach who will go off the wall, and not worry about hurting his starters' feelings. I wouldn't be surprised if Sefelosha and Thomas start or play big minutes in Game 3. And I'll leave the Flip Doubter side of the fence when he wins this series, but I'm still sitting on it until we go to the finals.
For sure...it's tacos for everyone if Flip sweeps this series. But if they falter and stumble like they did against the Cav's and just barely win...it's still no tacos as far as I'm concerned.
I agree. I'm definitely still on the fence, but I was leaning toward the "fire him" side earlier this season. Now, I'm leaning back the way I was when we first got him. Call me fickle, I guess. Show me!
Dont feel bad Darth I had it in for Flip also, you aren't the only one wafflling a bit. I think we all are right now, lmao.
We all want whats best for the team. Flip was not my ideal choice but he has been doing a great job all season and a superb job so far in the post-season. This is the pivital game. Is it a series or not? 2004 2nd round NJ series. Pistons had just blown out NJ twice at home and were heading to NJ with all the talk of a sweep. Series over, Nets cannot compete, Nets cannot win 4 out of 5. Three games later saw the 04 Pistons fighting for survial in a must win game 6 in NJ to force a game 7. Lets hope that part of history does not repeat itself. Thank god there is no Darvin Ham at least to blow a game in OT ( if it ever comes to that ). Pistons can pull this one out. This years core is the best Pistons road team we have seen. As long as the zebras don't sattle Sheed or Billups or anyone with early foul trouble then this should be more of the same with the Pistons getting the win.
This game goes to OT, and the Pistons pull it out.......and go up 3-0..........
Score of the game.........93-84 Pistons............. Foul totals: Pistons 26 - Bulls 16....... Chauncey leads Pistons with 21 points................. Go Pistons !!!!!!!!
You're right. As much as I hate to admit it, Flip deserves some of the credit for the way the team has come out guns-a-blazing in the playoffs. I agree 100%. This will be the biggest test and the most important game of the playoffs to date for the Pistons. You've got to think that Chicago will come out attacking like a cornered animal. They know that they can't come back from a 3-0 hole. It's do or die time for them and they'll feed off the energy of the crowd. It'll be crucial for the Pistons to weather the initial storm and take the crowd completely out of it (and ideally, start to turn on the Bulls). Not so fast my good man. My butt isn't going anywhere just yet. At this point, this team could get this far without any coach. Two games into the 2nd round isn't a big enough sample for me to make a decision. I'm not saying the Pistons have to win it all for me to say Flip did his job, but there's still a lot of playoffs left. I agree with everything here. I look for Skiles to play a lot more zone D to allow Big Ben to guard the basket rather than our perimeter shooting big men. Alright, I'll admit it. Flip has been doing a good job ok. What more do you people want from me! And you're absolutely right, this is a pivotal game.
I've got a new theme for this series............................... "Beating the Bulls, So Easy A Caveman can do it"
Does that mean the Heat are further down the evolutionary chart than cavemen? I've always thought Shaq looked like a gorilla... And D-Wade? He looks more like a fish than anything. As I posted over at Need4Sheed, I read an article about how the Bulls looked at film from Game 2 and saw some positives because they felt they were getting open shots. I'm not the most observant person when I watch a Pistons game 'cause I'm usually bouncing off the walls (especially the last 2 games 'cause I had about 50 Laffy Taffys before tipoff) and going crazy and stuff and not paying too much attention to what the other team is doing so I can't really remember if the Bulls were getting a whole bunch of open looks. Were they?
I do think they missed some good looks, mostly in the second half, as I recall. But I don't think they got behind by 16 after the first quarter because they missed open shots. Even if they knock more of them down in Chicago (which is a pretty good bet), they're still going to need to get some stops, which they haven't shown much sign of being able to do.
By the way, I looked up the song that is on the Geico caveman commercial... Röyksopp- Remind Me Off the "Melody A.M." album. Good song.
If the Pistons can weather the initial storm and get to within six at halftime, the series is over.
I agree with that. We know how this team can come out sluggish and let games get away from them... hold on...My mother's calling, I'll put her on speaker....
I thought the Bulls zone was fairly effective in the late 3rd and 4th quarters in Game 2. In the 3rd we were lucky enough to hit a number of 3's, but if that shot isn't going down it could be trouble as there were points where we just passed it around the perimeter until the shot clock wound down to zero. thats why if the Bulls do use their zone more it will be vital for Webber and Sheed to get down low and help neutralise it. Webber was huge in the 4th quarter when the Bulls got the lead down to 13. He hit 2 jump hooks in a row and got an 'and 1'. Sheed missed out due to foul trouble but he is going to need to establish himself down there in Game 3.

Arsène Wenger has included Emmanuel Frimpong and Francis Coquelin in his starting line-up to face Aston Villa on Wednesday.
With Johan Djourou injured, Coquelin will deputise at right-back. That means Laurent Koscielny and Per Mertesacker will continue at the heart of defence, with Thomas Vermaelen in once more at left-back.
Frimpong, meanwhile, will fill in for the suspended Alex Song at the heart of midfield. Aaron Ramsey and Mikel Arteta will continue in Arsenal engine room.
Wenger has kept faith once more with the same trio in attack, as Theo Walcott, Gervinho and Robin van Persie all start in the West Midlands.
Team in full: Szczesny, Coquelin, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Vermaelen, Frimpong, Arteta, Ramsey, Walcott, Gervinho, Van Persie.

text: I can only speak for myself when I say this because everyone is different and has their own opinions. I personally have never liked Glocks because they look like something my kids built with their Lego's. For me, shooting a gun is like hitting a golf ball. You know, when a golfer tells you that he likes the look of the club head as it lies behind the ball, it's an image thing. The more comfortable I am with the look, the better I shoot. This being said, I shot a couple of Glocks last month and really enjoyed them all. From what I understand Glocks are some of the most reliable handguns out there, and by far the most bang for the buck when you consider all the accessories you can purchase through the aftermarket suppliers. Needless to say, I'm now in the market for a Glock 17 that I plan on converting to IPDA/USPSA style race gun.

The music festival landscape, an event production universe in its own right, has changed drastically over the course of the past decade and a half, or so. What had begun some half a century ago as a naïve, albeit admirable attempt at youth liberté and rebelliousness, turned into a global-scale business undertaking some time in the '90s, only to, perhaps inevitably, become a gargantuan money-making machinery in the '00s, abandoning any semblance of ideology or topicality.
Latest Blog Posts
When renowned festivals make the ambitious business decision to expand their activities, namely by creating satellite festivals, there are only two ways in which this tapping into new territory plays out -– either the satellite festival is small, shoddy, cheap, and generally serves only to raise awareness about the queen bee event, or it becomes a rogue sensation in its own right, breathing a new life into the entire franchise and providing ace entertainment for audiences thirsty for new events.
It all started with a mix. Well, more accurately, it started as a remix.
For both Richard Norris and Erol Alkan, these two young Londoners started out, by themselves, as Djs, Alkan focusing more on dance and electronic music, Norris befriend Joe Strummer and playing on some of the Clash maestro's latter-day creations. It wasn't until 2006 that, after having rejiggered some tracks under his own name, Alkan began using the Beyond the Wizard's Sleeve moniker. Norris had joined in, and the group, gaining notoriety for productions of artists of both the underground (Midlake) and the mainstream (Franz Ferdinand, The Chemical Brothers) variety, started making the name for themselves. EPs and singles would trickle out here and there, but outside of 2008 compilation of their earlier recordings, nothing concrete.
What a joy it is, then, that The Soft Bounce is here, and goodness is it a mishmash of so many varied things. From the hippie-friendly go-go bounce of "Creation" to the '80s synth homage "Diagram Girl" to the ambient instrumental "Tomorrow, Forever" to the string-driven mod number "Door to Tomorrow", The Soft Bounce encompasses so much but still originates from the group's clearly-defined psych-friendly aesthetic.
Thus, to help celebrate the occasion, the two Wizards themselves answered PopMatters 20 Questions, revealing a love of truffle oils, an affinity towards author John Higgs, and some remarkably practical advice for handling life's problems.
With so many greats in the world of music passing and so much new talent coming from the Internet for their 15 minutes, it's fair to wonder who will be the ones to adapt to the times and stay around to make a life's worth of music. With much of the '90s crowd broken up, re-branded or withered into obscurity, it may seem like Radiohead is one of the only to continue to put out records whenever they want, using whatever instruments they want and charging whatever they want. But they wouldn't be alone because Beck has shown that he can go from country, to rock and roll, to funk, and create records that ebb and flow with the emotional current of tears (Morning Phase).
"These were some of the best days of my life", says Londoner Koray Fuat. "We had three music videos played on TV. We supported Montell Jordan, Lil Bow Wow and performed on the same stage as Kelle Le Roc and Roll Deep. These were interesting times." Fuat refers to his days as a rapper in one of London's few, if not only, Turkish-Brit hip-hop crews, Kontagious. The band's one and only album The Epidemic failed to pave the way for further success, but it did make an admirable notch in the underground hip-hop/garage scene that had championed everyone from the Streets to Kano at the time.

As the charming and talented author of this recipe notes, it only takes half an hour to put together this basic rich vanilla ice cream and flavor it in lots of ways. But take a careful look at this recipe. The author's goodnatured, any-which-way approach goes well beyond the chocolate and strawberry variations you'll find beneath the recipe. The basic proportions of the ice cream recipe itself are variable, which means whether you like your ice cream to err on the luxe and indulgent side or the luscious but please-not-quite-so-rich end of things, you can achieve it with a little finagling of the number of yolks and the type of milk or cream. Such brilliance! As the author notes, just make sure all the ingredients are well chilled before you mix and churn. And that you have a slight experimental spirit. Easy!–LC Editors
LC What if I Don't Have An Ice Cream Maker?! Note
Until we'd read this recipe, those of us at LC who are bereft of an ice cream maker had always resorted to pouting when we read ice cream recipes. But thanks to Elsa Petersen-Schepelern, we can do otherwise. Just freeze the ice cream mixture in a stainless-steel bowl until it's partially frozen, then blend it in a food processor or beat the mixture with a fork until it's smooth. Refreeze. The more times you repeat the freezing and processing, the smoother the resulting mixture. It actually works. (Depending on the temperature of your freezer, it may be a little more on the milkshake side of ice cream, but life-changing—or at least emancipating— nonetheless.) No ice cream maker? No problem.
Special Equipment: Ice cream maker
Rich Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe
- Quick Glance
- Makes 6 cups
- 3 large eggs, plus 2 to 3 large yolks
- 4 cups milk or light cream, or a combination
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1. Place the eggs and yolks (however many you choose) in a bowl and beat until smooth.
- 2. Heat the milk or cream and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat to just below boiling.
- 3. Gradually whisk or stir 1/2 cup of the hot liquid into the beaten eggs, then stir the mixture back into the saucepan. Place over medium-low heat or in the top of a bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water and stir until the mixture thickens. (Be sure to stir in the same direction.) Do not let the custard boil or it will curdle. When the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, remove from the heat, strain into bowl or pitcher, cool, and chill.
- 4. Gently stir in the vanilla and process the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the instructions. This recipe makes ample vanilla ice cream for most machines, so you may need to churn it in batches. Scrape the creamy goodness into a resealable container and freeze for several hours or up to overnight to achieve a proper ice cream consistency. Don't worry, your restraint will be rewarded.
Flavor Variations
- Of course you can fancy up this recipe however you deem fit, adding pistachios, crystallized ginger, an extra dose of vanilla, caramel swirls, or countless other flavorings just before churning. Here, a couple basics, just to get you started.
- Rich Strawberry Ice Cream
- Add 1 cup mashed fresh strawberries or 1/2 cup strawberry sauce and churn according to the manufacturer's directions.
- Rich Chocolate Ice Cream
- Melt 4 to 5 squares unsweetened chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over simmering water. Alternatively, microwave at medium in short 30 second bursts (about 2 minutes in all) until melted. Stir a little of the Rich Vanilla Ice Cream mixture into the chocolate, then stir the chocolate back into the custard. If you wish, add 3 extra squares of chocolate, grated by hand or in a blender. Churn according to the manufacturer's directions.

Five former Canisius College standouts were named to the 51-man Canadian National Team training roster for the 2014 FIL World Championship, announced by the Canadian Lacrosse Association on Monday. Dan Coates '11, Angus Dineley '07, Adam Jones '11, Kevin Ross '07 and Matt Vinc '05 were all selected from a list of 97 applicants and are set to compete for a final roster spot.
Canisius and Canadian National Team Head Coach Randy Mearns will oversee a selection camp from Oct. 11 to Oct. 14 on the campus of Canisius College. The national team will also play scrimmages against the Griffs and additional NCAA teams in Denver and Robert Morris.
"Getting from 97 applications to the 51 Team Canada invitee list was certainly no easy task and when you look at the quality and character of the selection camp list, our job doesn't get any easier," said Mearns. "I am excited to bring this group together in a few weeks and I know we'll have many tough decisions to make. In my experience with the national program, I think it is safe to say that this is the deepest, most qualified group of Canadian Field Lacrosse players trying to earn a spot to represent Canada in the World Championship next July."
Coates anchored the Canisius defense during his four-year collegiate career. The St. Catharines, Ontario native became the first Griff defender to earn first-team All-MAAC accolades during the 2011 season. He led Canisius with 52 ground balls, while placing second on the team with 18 caused turnovers. A 2011 first-round selection of the Colorado Mammoth of the NLL, Coates also led all MAAC defenders with 4.33 ground balls per game in 2011 and totaled 113 ground balls and 40 caused turnovers during his career.
Dineley played for the Griffs from 2004 to 2007. He appeared in 39 games with 28 starting assignments and ranks sixth in school history with 306 career saves, fourth with a .528 career save percentage and second with a 9.63 goals against average. During the 2005 campaign, Dineley recorded a save percentage of .595, the ninth-best mark in the NCAA.
The program's first All-American in 2008, Jones helped the Griffs to their first MAAC title the same season. A three-time All-MAAC First Team selection, he ranks 10th in the school's record book with 129 career points and sixth with 98 career goals. A 2011 first-round selection of the Colorado, Jones has shined in his first two seasons in the NLL. The 2012 NLL Rookie of the Year, Jones has accumulated 148 points, 62 goals and 86 assists in his two years with the Mammoth.
A 2007 NLL first-round draft pick, Ross spent the 2013 season with Philadelphia, totaling 53 points, 20 goals and 33 assists. He graduated from Canisius ranked fourth in school history with 185 points, second with 126 goals and eighth with 59 assists. A three-time first-team All-MAAC selection, Ross was named the conference's Offensive Player of the Year in 2006.
Vinc, a member of the 2006 gold medal-winning team and the 2010 squad that took silver, led the Griffs in ground balls in three different seasons and ranks fifth all-time with 258 career ground balls. A 2004 and 2005 All-MAAC selection on defense, Vinc was selected with the sixth overall pick in the 2005 NLL Draft as a goalkeeper and is currently a member of the Rochester Knighthawks. He has helped lead the Knighthawks to the past two NLL Championships.
The FIL World Championship will be held in Denver from July 10-19, 2014. Canada claimed the 2006 world championship with the United States taking the 2010 crown.

I am an American-born Chinese currently in my second year of college in the States. I'm pursuing a BA in Applied Linguistics and minors in Chinese, Korean, and Speech and Hearing Science. I hope to return to my parent's hometown to teach English soon after I graduate and was wondering what measures I would have to take to do so. I know I have a long way to go, but it never hurts to be prepared and have answers for future reference, right? I have a couple of questions, so I'd appreciate any help to point me in the right direction!
1. After graduating with a BA in Linguistics, should I go for an MA in TESOL/TEFL or a PGDE and then take the TEFL/CELTA/other?
2. Would it be a boost for employment if I obtain any of the above in Hong Kong?
3. Similar to question #2, will it help if I know, albeit minimal/conversational, Cantonese and Mandarin?
4. I'll be teaching English in Asia (hopefully Hong Kong) for 5 weeks this summer. It's not an internship per se, but would that possibly count as experience? If not, I do wish to teach in Korea for a few years before I head over to Hong Kong.
5. Which types of schools tend to be more difficult to find employment in? For example, government, international, religion-affiliated, etc.
6. Teaching at primary versus secondary level?


text: I am a big Notre Dame fan, and was hoping for Stovall on the first day. I was suprised that we selected a TE, but absolutely loved the fact that the TE was Fasano. I watched this guy as closely as anyone last season and can tell you without a shade of a doubt that he can be every bit as good as Witten is. He is basically a Witten clone, a little smaller, but a bit more agile as well. Both are not the best blockers at the TE position, but will prove to be an excellent receiver as both of them improve in the blocking dept. Some thought that maybe we didn't need a TE, but look at it like this, what happens is Witten goes down. We are left with one servicable TE who is new to the system in a system that is moving towards a TE based offense. That won't work. By drafting Fasano, not only does it give us another weapon at the TE position, it helps take some of the pressure off of Witten, gives Witten a break once in a while so he is not burnt out, and covers us either of our other TE's goes down for any length of time. Add to that the fact that I am sure Charlie Wiess called Parcells and told him not to let this guy get by. Parcells trusts Weiss and why shouldn't he. Wiess is one of the best Coaches in the world, and a good friend of Parcells. He knows talent and would not steer us wrong. It makes sense and I for on could not be happier with our draft thus far.

Is this the one your after?
It's near the bottom of the page. I have asked after this helmet for almost 2 years, as far as I can tell it never materialized.
I hope I'm wrong & we can both buy one!
Yes, i mean that. Oh man, i hope you be wrong too, because i´ve just won One of those on ebay (for a reaaaally low price)
This is the reference:
thanks for your answer
Could you post some pics when you get hold of it?
Sure, i´ll do... If i get it...
Seller has voted me with a positive vote, and i have not paid him yet. It looks strange. Im wondering if he real gets the item...
I heard these were the same size as the regular Rubies Jango helmet, only made of fiberglass. I didn't even see them at the Rubie's table at CIII, so I too am curious as to the quality and size.
Wow! That was a bargain!!!
The normal price for that helmet is 699$.
Rubies have had this on pre-order for a long time, but I dont think the have released it yet.
That is far below the price from any distributor. (I know)
I hope the seller wont back out....
Good luck I really hope you get it!
I just checked the items sold from this ebayer and a Clone Trooper premium helmet went for $1.25 (USD).
Unless I read it wrong, I think that's a mighty fine bargain someone had as well as you.
Can't wait to see pics of your Jango when you receive it.

Thanks! I hope to get it too!
I talked with the guy who won that helmet, and it really was sold for 500$. He got a Deal with the seller and the auction was finished sooner.Pooper said:
But my auction has finished at his time, so he must sell me the jango helmet for the showed price. At the moment, ive get no response of the seller
I can´t wait to have it among my hands. I´ll upload pics as soon as I receive it... if I ever receive it....
Any word yet on that e-bay helmet?
Any pics?

With the soaring cost of running state and county government offices, there are many cutbacks being made. Across Kentucky, the county clerk's offices struggle to handle personnel, consumer services and operating costs into their working schedules, it sometimes becomes a decision between hours of service offered and the number of staff. Both state and county governments are searching for a solution to the dilemma.
I would like to respond to Bro. Tom Hall's editorial of Dec. 12, 2012.
Tom, thank you for your wonderful editorial which exposed the terrible sin of sodomy. As you stated, Christians and the churches need to get involved in the battle. The greatness and stability of America began with the Pilgrim separatists and the Puritans. These Christians were committed to establishing the kingdom of Jesus Christ on the Earth.
How great would be to have a Walmart in Owen County so you can get everything you need for the upcoming holiday with ease?
Sadly, we don't have one of those but what we do have is a chain of local businesses that may be able to provide us with things that are on our grocery lists. The nearest Walmart is located in Dry Ridge and that's a lot of wasted gas money just to go and buy needed supplies.
Lights On For Life Day is a symbolic observance designed to focus attention on the issue of impaired driving. So let's stop this violent and deadly crime of impaired driving. Nearly 12,000 people die every year in alcohol- and drug-related crashes: one person dead every two minutes.
How about this holiday season we join together and take a stand against drunken driving?
On Dec. 31, keep your lights on your vehicle, homes and businesses and choose to not to drink and drive.
Travis Pelotte and Christina Brown
I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to the local businesses who are spreading the Christmas cheer for the children in our community. My 3-year-old son Mason and I had a great weekend visiting Santa all over town. We saw Santa three different times at three different businesses for free, not to mention that he sat on his lap at the Christmas parade last weekend too.
We have come to the time in our society where there are no longer any absolutes.
With that being said, our (U.S. Supreme Court) justices are preparing to address the issue of same-sex marriage.
We already have some states that recognize the same-sex union with all the benefits that is common with traditional marriage.
I would like to commend Debbie Sigretto for remodeling the front of her building where the clothing center and Spurgeon Law Firm are located. It looks much better and makes the town more attractive. Cassie Towles recently remodeled the front of her building at the corner of West Seminary and South Main with new windows, a front door and fresh paint.
After reading the article in the paper last week, I decided I needed to write something to talk about how much the Adult Learning Center has meant to me and my family.
A few years ago, I went to the Adult Learning Center wanting to get my GED but feeling like I probably couldn't do it.
When I went in there, the staff was so positive and made me feel like it was possible. To make a long story short, working with the adult-education staff, I did get my GED and I am now in college at NKU.
For the past 10 years I have been privileged to work as a community liaison physician with Hospice of the Bluegrass. I have been witness to the wonderful services they provide to our community. November is National Hospice and Palliative Care Month.
No one likes to think about death and dying, but Hospice is a resource available in our community to provide comfort, dignity and respect to families coping with a loved onea with a serious or life-ending illness.
What's the story about the shoebox of gifts for children around the world? Operation Christmas Child, a project of international Christian relief and evangelism organization Samaritan's Purse, uses simple gift-filled shoeboxes to let children all over the world know that they are loved and not forgotten.

MIT faculty votes for open access to their scholarly articles – 24 Mar 2009
The faculty at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), US, has voted to make their scholarly articles available to the public for free and open access on the Web. The move is aimed at broadening access to MIT's research and scholarship.
The new policy was approved unanimously at a recently held MIT faculty meeting and took immediate effect. Under the new policy, faculty authors give MIT nonexclusive permission to disseminate their journal articles for open access through DSpace, an open-source software platform developed by the MIT Libraries and Hewlett Packard. The policy gives MIT and its faculty the right to use and share the articles for any purpose other than to make a profit. Authors may opt out on a paper-by-paper basis.
MIT's DSpace repository contains the digital research materials of MIT faculty and researchers and allows them to be saved, searched and shared worldwide. MIT OpenCourseWare (OCW) was launched in 2001 with the goal of making all MIT course materials available, free of charge, to anyone over the World Wide Web. Since then, OCW has shared MIT course materials with more than 50 million visitors worldwide and inspired hundreds of other universities to do the same. The new open access resolution will now remove barriers to making all of MIT's research openly available to the world.
A faculty committee will work with the MIT Libraries to oversee implementation and determine a workflow for adding articles to DSpace. Under the new open access model, potentially thousands of papers published by MIT faculty each year will be added to DSpace and made freely available on the web and accessible through search engines such as Google.
MIT's policy claims to be the first faculty-driven, university-wide initiative of its kind in the US. While Harvard and Stanford universities have implemented open access mandates at some of their schools, MIT is the first to fully implement the policy university-wide as a result of a faculty vote. MIT's resolution is built on similar language adopted by the Harvard Faculty of Arts & Sciences in 2008.

Hey All. So after two years of this project being on hold due to family needs and home repairs I finally got to work on this again. I am very close to being done. I have a couple of questions. Help me TDH. You're my only hope!
Here are some pics of my very first test fit. I forgot to get a profile to show off the jet pack. I also realized afterwords that the cape was on the wrong shoulder.
Cod and kidney needs secureed down so thats why it's just hanging on there. Need to fill pockets with foam and add the hose from the gauntlet to the sleeve. Also need to dirty up the knees a lot more after seeing them in the pics.
My big question:
I have Bobamaker's jump suit. It fits and looks great. One small problem is once I have everything on it bunches up a little to where the legs are a tad short. How can I correct this so I can do the cuffed ankles at the bottom? I was thinking of going to JoAnn fabrics and trying to match the color and fabric and just making something that would looke right.

This is all Hypothetical of course, but...
Let's say that I am a Mod on another forum
We'll call it "Fett Freaks"
And let's also say that I am just a member on another forum
We'll call it "Jango Junkies"
Ok, now lets pretend that fellow member on the "Jango Junkies" forum says things that I don't care for on the "Jango Junkies" forum, but he is also a member on the "Fett Freaks" forum.
Would I be justified to ban him from the "Fett Freaks" forum (because I am powerless on "Jango Junkies" )?
Or would I just be being a ******* & abusing my position as a Mod at "Fett Freaks" by banning him there?

It would be the second one with the clear strap.
Thanks rafa

The accurate e one sold on ebay for 910$
I reckon the smooth non ribbed version as well. Both are quite rare though right?
Yes, but they have been popping up on ebay lately. A friend of mine snagged one for me in exchange for some build work ...i was actually going to ask this same question as mine has the smooth molded in strap. Apparently the design was changed to a riveted rubber strap as the molded in one would ten to break.
Thats great. Voorhees
I have gotten 3 in a month lol sold one to a member here recently
Unfortunately the prices they've been going for are ridiculous lately. A couple years ago they were $200-300.
yeah but main buyers are actual scuba collectos, specially for good condition ones. So sw fans and scuba fans are figthing for very limited items.

I have driven a W210, but not a W211, so I don't know if they are that much different. I think they still look great, especially in AMG trim.

Hawaiian Cheesecake RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
5 3 3
A TASTE of the tropics is as close as your kitchen, thanks to the delectable dessert here! To complement Michele Crawford's exotic party projects, CT's cooks baked a creamy cheesecake on a coconut crust. Then they covered their confection with a homemade pineapple sauce for fresh fruit flavor. A colorful edible orchid tops off this tempting treat that's a breeze to prepare. Just follow the recipe below!
Recommended: 18 Recipes for Rum Lovers
- 1-3/4 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 3 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 cans (8 ounces each) crushed pineapple, undrained
- 1 drop yellow food coloring
- Fresh mint and edible orchids for garnish, optional
- In a small bowl, combine the coconut and butter. Press onto the bottom of a greased 9-in. springform pan. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
- In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, sugar and flour until smooth. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Stir in sour cream and vanilla until blended. Pour filling onto crust.
- Place pan on a baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until center is almost set (top of cheesecake may crack). Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully run a knife around edge of pan to loosen; cool 1 hour longer. Refrigerate overnight.
- For sauce, combine the sugar and cornstarch in a large saucepan. Stir in the pineapple. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add food coloring if desired. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Spread pineapple sauce over cheesecake. Garnish with mint and orchids if desired. Yield: 10-12 servings.
Editor's Note: Be sure to use edible orchids. They can be found in many specialty food stores.

Tuesday 19th January 2012
They say class is permanent and for a few seconds in London N5 last night, no football fan around the world could deny that statement. If a certain TH does nothing more in the next few weeks, all those of us lucky enough to be present will remember his return as nothing less than triumphant.
It also provided the perfect end to a game that had proved much tougher than it perhaps should have been. Not because we were expecting our visitors to give us an easy night, just that we created enough dangerous situations on the night to have seen our progression to round four tied up much earlier.
No matter what the score however, there is only one prize for victory in a cup competition so ultimately we got what we all wanted. Thierry's touch and finish from Songy's great pass was very much the icing on the cake and brought back memories that almost felt beyond reality.
A home tie against Aston Villa awaits later this month but before that our thoughts turn back to our league exploits.
Does anybody know how we can get rid of this incredible 'full-back curse' we seem to have at the moment?! Back when the unfortunate Conor Henderson picked up his serious injury after only being on the pitch a few minutes in our pre-season game against Cologne, none of us could have any idea what would lay ahead. In a single position I cannot remember a situation like it.
Without going into specifics we must have seven or eight players currently unavailable for that position!
Nobody likes to use that kind of situation as an excuse but any fan or pundit that doesn't believe it causes one or two problems both defensively and attacking-wise is a bit blinkered in my book.
On the positive side, a number of our squad are approaching fitness now it seems so all being well we can only get stronger as we go forward.
Swansea have already proved they are a tough side to beat, especially at home. With that in mind we head into south-west Wales knowing we will have to be at our best to come away with a victory.
A new ground for all of us too, a rarity it seems these days, even in the FA Cup where opportunities are more numerous! There will be a few attending no doubt that remember seeing us play at our hosts' Vetch Field ground 30 years or so ago. I am not one so other than visits to see relatives and our many successful trips to nearby Cardiff, it will be a whole new experience.
Come on you Gunners.
