Man accused of videotaping ladies room
An East Hartford lab employee was arrested Monday for allegedly spying on women using the ladies' room at his church and work.
East Hartford police charged Darrel Lewis with voyeurism after a woman reported finding a camera in the bathroom at Hydro Horning Labs, WTNH reports.
Police said Lewis admitted taping at least nine females, including an 11 year-old girl, as they used the bathroom and that he had edited video of each victim that indicated he'd spied on her more than once, WTNH reported.
Lewis had been videotaping women in restrooms since 2009, police said, storing the clips on external hard drives.

Lewek Szabasson
Born: March 10, 1914
Kozienice, Poland
Lewek and his five brothers and sisters were born to religious Jewish parents in the town of Kozienice, situated in east central Poland near a birch forest. Lewek's father owned a sawmill, and when Lewek and his brothers were grown, they helped their father manage the family business.
1933-39: When I was 15 I attended an agricultural school near Kozienice, because I wanted to emigrate to Palestine [Aliyah] to work the land. But after the Nazis rose to power in Germany in 1933, emigration preference to Palestine was given to Jewish youths from Germany. Seeing I had no chance to leave, I returned home to Kozienice, where I was trapped when the Germans invaded Poland in 1939.
1940-44: The Germans set up a ghetto in Kozienice in late 1939, and by 1940, when I was 26, I was deported to labor camps in Poland and Germany. I remember that in the Allach labor camp I had a friend who saved his little bits of bread for the future. He finally got so weak doing this that he could not eat at all and died.
Lewek was one of only a few survivors of an extended family of 200 people. He immigrated to the United States in 1949.

I love these sandals. They are so comfortable. I have them in both colors. First I got the black/silver in a 10. They are a little big, but I kept them anyhow. Got the blue in a 9.5 - perfect. I'm usually a 10 in Vogs and a 9 in non-Vog street shoes. I get so many compliments on them and I love how the sole fits my whole foot. The ankle strap is very sexy!
I always found the picture of these weird online, but once I had them on my feet at the store, they looked great! Sandals can be awkward like that. I found them a bit long, and ended up with 9.5 while I usually wear 10.5, otherwise I was floating around. Very nice, can't wait to break them in so I can wear them all the time!
Gorgeous sandals!
Tried these on along with the Zambezi and decided these had to come home with me. They are so elegant and comfortable! They have less black on them and are more open than the Zambezis, which is what made me choose them instead. Awesome service as usual from Bryan! Thanks!

Recording Industry Wants To Have It Both Ways When It Comes To Pre-1972 Recordings
from the are-they-the-same-or-different? dept
Indeed, the report released with the Copyright Act expressly stated that Congress did not intend to protect sound recordings: "It is not the intention of the committee to extend the right of copyright to the mechanical reproductions themselves, but only to give the composer or copyright proprietor the control, in accordance with the provisions of the bill, of the manufacture and use of such devices." According to one commentator, Congress had two principal concerns about sound recordings, leading it to decline to protect them. First, Congress wondered about the constitutional validity of such protection. The Constitution allows Congress to protect "writings," and Congress was uncertain as to whether a sound recording could constitute a writing. Second, Congress worried that allowing producers to exclusively control both the musical notation and the sound recording could lead to the creation of a music monopoly.That latter concern certainly was prescient. When Congress did a massive overhaul of copyright law in 1976, the recording industry was a much more powerful lobby, and so sound recordings were included. However, in the years between 1909 and 1976, many states had created their own (often bizarre) "state" copyrights to protect recordings. Rather than deal with this in an intelligent way, Congress basically said the new federal copyright rules would only apply to songs recorded in 1972 or after, and pre-1972 recordings would remain in a bizarre limbo. This has created a whole host of legal issues, and the Copyright Office has been trying to figure out what to do about this for years.
However, it appears that the recording industry would like it both ways. When it's to their advantage, they claim that pre-1972 recordings should be treated just like modern song recordings. And when it's not to their advantage, they insist that pre-1972 recordings should be treated wholly differently. In various hearings about the issue, the RIAA has been one of the most vocal in arguing against treating pre-1972 recordings as if they're covered by federal copyright law. And, at the same time, they've argued in court repeatedly that the DMCA safe harbors don't apply to pre-1972 recordings, making various music storage lockers liable for any such recordings they host. Some courts have rejected this theory, while others have accepted it. Either way, the recording industry has been pretty adamant that pre-1972 recordings should be treated differently, so they can sue whomever they want.
And yet... when various streaming music companies recognize this fact, and note that pre-1972 recordings aren't covered under statutory licensing regimes... the recording industry freaks out. Michael Huppe, the President of SoundExchange -- an organization created by the RIAA -- is writing in Billboard magazine about how unfair it is that streaming services like Sirius XM and Pandora don't pay statutory rates for pre-1972 recordings. Huppe complains that "this is not fair" and notes:
It's a matter of simple fairness to offer equal treatment for all sound recordings.Okay. If that's true, then why aren't SoundExchange and the RIAA out there in support of federalizing the copyright in pre-1972 recordings? Why aren't SoundExchange and the RIAA agreeing to the fact that the DMCA's safe harbors apply equally to pre-1972 recordings? I'm all for "equal treatment for all sound recordings" as well, but someone ought to point out to SoundExchange and the RIAA: you first.

Just a short five today. Truth be told, I had planned on at least twice that today, but the shin splints I've been experiencing the past week or two felt really flared up so I cut it short. I'm not too concerned though. I've had shin splints several times in the past, and know they only last a month at the most for me. Glad to be dealing with this "problem" as opposed to the PF one.

Tuesday, 08 November 2011 05:02 PM
WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Eric Holder on Tuesday acknowledged serious mistakes in an arms trafficking probe that allowed AK-47s and other weapons to leak into the black market, but he insisted the Justice Department was taking steps to ensure that never happens again.
Under pointed questioning by Republicans, Holder also expressed regret that the Justice Department had denied allegations of "gun walking" in a letter to Sen. Charles Grassley sent earlier this year.
"Unfortunately, we will feel its effects for years to come as guns that were lost during this operation continue to show up at crime scenes both here and in Mexico," Holder told the Senate Judiciary Committee of the investigation, known as "Operation Fast and Furious."
Grassley, R-Iowa, the panel's chairman, said the operation represented an "utter failure" by federal law enforcement officials to enforce existing gun laws.
The purchases of more than 2,000 weapons aroused the suspicion of Fast and Furious investigators, but the suspected "straw" buyers of those guns were allowed to walk out of Phoenix-area gun shops with AK-47s and other weapons, rather than being arrested.
The goal was to track those weapons to gun-trafficking ring leaders, suspected to include Mexican drug lords, who had long eluded prosecution. But agents lost track of about 1,400 of the guns. As of Oct. 20, 276 guns in Fast and Furious have been recovered in Mexico and 389 recovered in the United States.
The letter from the Justice Department to Grassley in February said federal agents make "every effort" to intercept weapons that have been purchased illegally and prevent their transportation to Mexico. Holder said the letter to Grassley was based on information the Justice Department received from the U.S. Attorney's office in Phoenix and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in Washington.
Pressed by Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, Holder also expressed regret to the family of a slain federal border agent whose death prompted ATF agents to come forward early this year and provide information to Grassley about Fast and Furious.
The attorney general added, however, that it is not fair to assume that mistakes in Operation Fast and Furious led to Terry's death. Two of the guns whose purchase was identified by Operation Fast and Furious investigators turned up at the scene of a shootout in Arizona that resulted in the death of Terry, a Customs and Border Protection agent.
Holder said he first heard allegations of problems in Fast and Furious early this year, prompting Cornyn to ask whether it was Holder's responsibility to have known earlier.
"I have ultimate responsibility for that which happens in the department, but I cannot be expected to know the details for every operation that is ongoing in the Justice Department on a day-to-day basis," replied Holder.
Holder has been criticized in a congressional investigation by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee chaired by Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif. Republicans have suggested Holder was informed of the problems as early as July 2010 when the operation's name turned up repeatedly in weekly departmental reports — a point raised Tuesday by Cornyn. Those reports provided updates on dozens of investigations, including Fast and Furious, but do not mention the gun-walking tactic.
The Associated Press has reported that the investigation of Fast and Furious has turned up Justice Department documents which indicate the gun-walking tactic was used in two other investigations by ATF offices in Arizona during the Republican administration of George W. Bush and a briefing memo to Bush's Attorney General Michael Mukasey that briefly described use of the tactic. Mukasey has declined to comment on the memo.
In August, Holder replaced three officials who played critical roles in the arms trafficking probe — the acting director of ATF, the U.S. attorney in Arizona and a prosecutor who worked on the arms trafficking probe. The department's inspector general is still investigating the case, at Holder's request. ATF's new director has revamped the management structure at the agency's headquarters.
Democrats raised the issue of two Bush-era probes that involved gun-walking. Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer said that Republicans are selectively focusing on the Obama administration through Fast and Furious and that if the Republican-controlled House Oversight and Government Reform Committee won't look into the earlier probes, "we should."
Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., asked the IG whether its probe of Fast and Furious was being expanded to cover the older probes. One investigation begun in 2006, Operation Wide Receiver, involved 350 weapons, many of which fell into the hands of arms traffickers. In the second Bush-era probe, a briefing paper prepared for then-Attorney General Mukasey outlined failed attempts by federal agents to track illicitly purchased guns across the border into Mexico in a 2007 probe.
Cornyn said that unlike Fast and Furious, Operation Wide Receiver involved coordination with Mexican law enforcement officials. But in the 2007 probe, email traffic among ATF officials said the investigation failed because Mexican law enforcement fell down on the job of tracking the weapons after they were told what vehicle was bringing them across the border. That memo urged Mukasey to press his Mexican counterpart to provide corruption-resistant agents for additional operations that would use the gun-walking tactic.
The Justice Department inspector general's office said in a semiannual report that it was reviewing Operation Fast and Furious "and other investigations with similar objectives, methods and strategies." A spokesman for the IG's office, Jay Lerner, declined to comment on whether the 2006 and 2007 probes are part of the investigation.

Talk:1171: Perl Problems
The punchline is in reference to this oft-quoted joke by jwz:
Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use regular expressions." Now they have two problems. - Jamie Zawinski
There's actually a double joke here: The song "99 Problems" is by Jay-Z, and the regex joke is by jwz. --188.8.131.52 08:33, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
I don't understand why so many people have problems with regular expressions. They are really easy ... compared to gramatics or turing machines. :-) (Of course, it is good idea to verify that the problem you are trying to solve with regular expressions IS regular. While perl is sometimes capable of doing stuff outside real regular expressions, it's rarely worth it.) -- Hkmaly (talk) 10:23, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
Wait, how do we rule out that the Regular Expressions might've helped Cueball, and that now, in fact, he has only 4 problems? 18.104.22.168 15:52, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
Great explanation today, folks. --DanB (talk) 20:10, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
The stuff about preg_match is NOT perl at all. It is php.
perl has regular expression matching as part of the language, not as a function.
In perl, you would normally only get the firrst match, unless you used the 'g' flag.
The comparable initial match might be:
@matches = $str =~ m/([A-Za-z])/g;
But if you only wanted the first match, it would be more common to write something like
$firstMatch = $str =~ m/([A-Za-z])/ && $1;
I think that if you do want all the matches in perl, you are better off doing it in an explicit loop, so as to avoid creating an unneeded array.
(Perl now considers using the "complete match" token to be a less than ideal thing to use, which is why I added the parens and used
$1 instead of
$&.) --Divad27182 (talk) 06:33, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
If you're havin' Perl problems I feel bad for you, son - I got 99 problems, but regex ain't one. -- 18.104.22.168 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
[User talk:Divad27182] is right. I took the liberty to remove the Perl reference in that line. 18.104.22.168 10:05, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
184.108.40.206 15:47, 11 February 2013 (UTC)Is there not an "off by one" joke in here also?

No problem Jamie.
Keep your eyes out in the near future as we have more integrations planned.

Hi shopify
Great feature, any on idea about, when it is going to available for some of us that are not under this category.
Note: Google currently only allows integration with merchants operating in the US and operating in USD, or in the UK and operating in GBP, or in Germany and operating in Euros.

Hi Jesse
OK thanks for the answer :-)

That sounds great! But what about Canada??
November 05 2009, 07:30AM
Hi Jesse,
Wicked news can get rid of the hack, however the one good thing about the hack is that I got nice stats and functionality from the merchant centre.
Is this functionality going to be available to our clients we have on shopify int he future
Best Regards
Mike Harding – Director
November 05 2009, 07:30AM
@Mike This kind of access is not provided by Google. However we will look into this and see if we can get your clients that information somehow.
@Catherine Unfortunately Google Product Search only allows residents of certain countries to list products in their search engine.
We hope to provide more integrations in the future, and hopefully some of them will support Canadian merchants.

Hi There!
Excited about this feature but for some reason I can't find this "Marketing Tab" in my shop admin to opt into this integration. My shop meets all the requirements.
November 11 2015, 01:29PM
How can I do this for my online shop? Can you list steps?
November 19 2015, 09:38AM
It sucks that we all work in international business with no frontiers in the web, but we don't have half the integrations or services in Mexico, even if we pay the same price.
November 19 2015, 05:53PM
I can't find the marketing tab in the admin. Can someone tell me how to get there?

Product Details
Aston Martin Lagonda 1977, Redstuff Ceramic Low Dust Brake Pads by EBC®. Redstuff ceramic brake pads have always been known for its low dust ability but the latest blend has greatly reduced the phenomenon of pad "Pick up" or disc scoring and reduced dust even further.
|Series: Redstuff Ceramic Low Dust
|Friction Material: Kevlar® with Ceramic Particles
|Finish: Red Powder Coat
|Dust Rating: Low
|Driving Style: Performance / Racing
|Quantity: Sold as Set
- Superior ceramic pad compounds resist heat buildup, dust, and squealing
- Ceramic pad compounds wear slower and last longer than OEM equipment
- Ceramic pads eliminate squealing under the most extreme cold or hot temperatures
- EBC lowest dust fast street pad with 15% brake improvement
- Capable of repeated heavy brake use without brake "Fall-Off"
- Very minimal disc or rotor damage characteristics
- Superb material for Prestige imports European and Asian cars
- ECE R 90 type approved for most cars
- Features red "brake in' surface coating for instant safe braking after install
- Sold as a set for two wheels
Redstuff Ceramic Low Dust Brake Pads by EBC are replacement brake pads that are made with a Kevlar-based fiber compound enhanced with ceramic particles instead of metallic steel wool found on 99% of vehicles from manufacturers today. Formulated specifically for heavier cars and trucks with high levels of performance, Redstuff pads can handle the heat generated by heavy loads and provide long life while generating minimal dust residue. While they provide a more gradual level of grip than EBC Yellowstuff pads, their braking power is nonetheless a substantial improvement over semi-metallic brake pads. During independent tests at 100 miles per hour, Redstuff brake pads have been shown to reduce the distance it took to stop some vehicles by 50 feet. In the real world, that's three car lengths – a remarkable safety improvement when what's important is on the line.
Ceramic brake pads are used in Formula 1, Nascar, and most forms of championship racing for many reasons. When braking at sustained speeds of over 200 miles per hour, enough heat is generated on brake components to make rotors glow. Ceramic brake pads offer the ability to stay cool under the most severe conditions. Used with perforated rotors, heat buildup is reduced so much that brake fade from fluid reaching boiling temperature is all but eliminated. While you may not drive under these conditions, the benefits of these pads can be enjoyed at any speed. Ceramic brake pads are far quieter due to their higher resonant frequency undetectable by human ears, and once the initial bed-in period of 1,500 miles has passed, you'll rarely hear any noise from Redstuff pads. Equally important, the brake dust that ceramic pads produce is far less, finer in consistency, and non-adhesive to wheel surfaces. You don't need to drive on a racetrack to enjoy the benefits RedStuff ceramic brake pads offer, and we offer them at a value-packed price that matches what some dealers charge for traditional pads.
Founded and based in the United Kingdom, EBC Brakes® is a premiere producer of brake components for passenger cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, ATVs, and even scooters. EBC brake pads and rotors are preferred by fleet operators of emergency vehicles, livery cabs, and by discerning racers all over the world for the effective grip, superior lifespan, resistance to heat buildup, and proper fit they deliver. From the company president down to every employee, EBC strongly believes that brake components that are truly superior must be constructed from the most effective materials and also offer the lowest environmental impact possible. Likewise, EBC will never put their name on any products that cut corners in development, quality control, or are manufactured using sweatshop working conditions where human rights are not valued. When you want the best, most responsible brake components that meet or exceed OEM specification without dealer OEM markup, EBC Brakes is the only name you need to know.

Revision as of 14:26, 26 December 2006
Off the shelf
There are a number of panoramic tripod heads on the market, at widely varying prices.
Agnos - Italian manufacturer of panoramic heads and accesories for panoramic photography. I bought an adapter for my fc-e9 fisheye adapter and it is very well built and of a good quality. They will also release (if they didn't yet) a new solution for creating a spherical pano out of 3 pics taken at 120 degrees each with a DSLR rotated at 45 degrees (!).
Bogen/Manfrotto 303SPH
A more expensive option is the Bogen/Manfrotto 303SPH, a large, but well made head. It could double as a boat anchor! I (Rick) have the 303SPH and the Agnos mentioned below. Bogen has a site dedicated to their line of pano heads Manfrotto 303SPH Mini-Site. Some users complain that the head sags - I have not experienced this. This head can be used with virtually any lens / camera combination. I used to use it with the FC-E9 fisheye, but the head left too large of a footprint in the image. --Add360.com 03:21, 7 Nov 2005 (EST)
For me, the Jasper Engineering head has been an excellent value. At about $200, it's strong enough for serious 35mm or comparable digital cameras, which can be used horizontally or (with the included adapter) vertically. Nodal Point correction is horizontal and covers a variety of focal lengths as long as (I'm guessing) 135mm or more. Like so many heads, a bubble level is included, but hard to read when the head is set up at eye level. The builder will add custom touches very reasonably, In my case I put a Wimberly/Arca quick realease plate on the base. The base is machined aluminum; they provided a peel and stick piece of rubber for the base (to keep the plate from slipping) for about ten bucks.
Pivoting parts on this unit are tightened with cap screws which have patent caps on them to give more leverage in tightening. I ended up prying these off and taking a t-handle allen wrench with me. I'm using a D-70 and a 17-35 usually; a smaller camera would be fine without that extra step.
Kaidan offers two tripod heads. The KiWi and QuickPan. The KiWi when equipped with Twin-Axis Bracket will work for smaller cameras equipped with fisheye lenses. This is a single-row solution. Kaidan's QuickPan Spherical will allow for multirow panoramas with either rectilinear or fisheye lenses. The aforementioned Twin-Axis Bracket will also work on the QuickPan for single-row fisheye panoramas.
Kaidan is also due to release their QuickPan Professional tripod head in the early part of 2006.
Nodal Ninja
Nodal Ninja Entering into a competitive market Nodal Ninja, built by Fanotec, satisfies price, quality, ease of use, and portability. This is an easy to use FULL spherical panoramic tripod head with click stops. With this pano head you are anle to produce single row 360 degree cylindrical panoramas, multirow 360x180 degree spherical panoramas, mosaics as well as simple 2,3 or 4 shot landscapes. The specially designed T-adapter allows you to mount a camera/lens in landscape mode and/or allows the use of many 3rd party quick release plates. The all metal build quality also assures long product life - important to power users like those doing Real Estate Virtual Tours. Nodal Ninja retails for $199.95 and they offer a great package deal for only a few dollars more. The package contents vary depending on current specials. For ealry 2007 the package includes 5 reversible detent click stop rings, (15/18, 20/24, 45/60, 72/0, 90/120) t-adapter, and neoprene case. Added features include:
- Universal - fits almost all point and shoot cameras as well as most DSLR's.
- It is THE smallest and lightest pano head available - only 460 grams.
- Sturdy - made from lightweight aluminum metal.
- Leveling - built-in quality bubble level for exact leveling.
- Finish - attractive "non-glare" matt black.
- Closed rail design - assures your expensive camera won't slip off accidentally.
- 3/8" AND 1/4" thread mount adapter.
This makes it ideal for the professional and amateur photographer on the go, traveler, hiker etc. Many other features can be found on their website. Nodal Ninja is also well known for their superior customer support. While product is one thing they realize support is everything. Read a recent review by Rosauro Ona, and a couple others - Panoguide and Eric Rougier. Fanotec is a small company founded by the inventor of Nodal Ninja - Nick Fan. They produce Nodal Ninja's in limited batches. Used older models have been known to sell for more than current models - that says something about a product! If you are lucky enough to get your hands on one of these units you won't be disappointed. Have a read of their Testimonials and simply ask around the forums, you'll quickly learn what others think of their product and support. And Fanotec will very shortly release a new leveling head to compliment their Nodal Ninja or any other pano head which will retail for less than other levelers. I guess the only down side to Nodal Ninja (current model NN3) is the fact it does not support larger DSLR's like the D2X Fuji S3 Pro or Canon Mark II type cameras. Also NN3 does not support DSLR's using battery grips or larger lenses like the FC-E9 or the Rayonex lens. Nodal Ninja is backed by a FULL 30 day return policy as well as 2 year warranty. As their slogan says "what's in your bag?"
The 360Precision is a more expensive but very predictable panoramic head. At U.S. prices from $995-1095 for a single camera and lens setup, it is beyond the average user's price point. Its simple controls make it a very plausible option for those that make panoramas frequently and with the same equipment each time. The 360Precision heads are built to a specific body and specific lens combination, saving the photographer the need to find the entrance pupil for their lens and midpoint of the camera. Because of this, it is a very precise way to batch-create panoramas without needing to generate control points for each panorama. The sacrifice is that you lose the option of using a different combination of camera and lens with this head until you purchase an additional lens arm.
Although these limits may seem restrictive, the results are very, very predictable. Their suggested workflow is to calibrate a template in your software (hugin, PTGui, PTMac), and for every panorama afterward, apply the template and immediatly skip to stitching. This saves you the time spent in generating and correcting control points in each panorama. For those that can save significant amounts of time and/or money by doing this, this head truly is a life saver. The generation of the template can be time consuming but may save you hours upon hours of post processing time compared to other solutions.
It is possible to upgrade the 360Precision in modular ways, for instance if you decide to use a different lens for your panoramas, you can order just the lens arm you need, or if you decide to use a different camera for panoramas, you can order just the different camera leg and use the same lens arm.
KingPano, Panosaurus
Very affordable pan/tilt heads which allow horizontal and vertical rotation around the nodal point i.e. for multi row panoramas are the, Panosaurus and KingPano.
Pinnacle VR Universal Pano Head
Priced towards the upper end of the middle ($499) is the Pinnacle VR head that will work with any camera where the tripod hole is in the center of the lens axis. Using pin registration, it can accomodate cameras with or without battery grips attached and supports a wide range of lenses from fisheye to 135mm (on a full frame sensor, 80mm on an APS sized sensor). Details and sample sets of images with PTGui templates can be found at Pinnacle VR
Various unbias reviews are floating about on many of these panorama tripod heads:

Lens brackets
Another way to keep the lens/camera fixed to the no-parallax point are lens brackets that directly mounted onto the lens itself. The advantages are less vibrations but the drawback is that you need one bracket for each lens.
Some examples:
- Agnos Lens ring
- Laser cut wooden brackets form Pano Bracket from bophoto
- Self made bracket Willy Kaemena

I have noticed that towards the end of this incredibly long generation of gaming (which is, in my opinion, a good thing), gamers are more and more focused on the one aspect that haunts every game out there (well, at least the ones with a story): the ending. So how should developers handle it?
Personally I didn't throw my controller out of the window for RDR or LA Noire but was glad it was over. Those two games failed fundamentally at one thing that is important to an ending. Prior to an ending the game needs to be paced correctly. LA Noire was a slow placed game (also repetitive) from the get go and so I was glad it was over so I can review it. RDR was a good game except for the beginning and the ending where the pacing dropped. On paper doing family things is great to try and get an emotion response to what happens next but in practice it is incredibly dull (which isn't helped by your son being so unlikable). I was glad that there were no more family stuff to do. I didn't feel sad because I was so enraged by the monotonous task before it
This " What I'm trying to say, is that players should be rewarded for investing hours upon hours of their lives with, at least, a fitting end to their own tales. " only works for games with choices which doesn't work for every type of game. Some games need a ridged structure to tell a story.
An ending needs to have prior build up before the ending is executed. You need to feel like you are building up to the end and the tempo needs to increase. I think endings can be cinematic as long as the bit before it is done well (pacing wise because that is fundamentally important for a game/movie)
I agree the ending is vital and some poor endings have ruined the overall experience for me.
Mass Effect 3's ending was a complete failure, both in gameplay and story wise. Even though it was a fight with every species in the galaxy vs the Reapers, it never felt like it. It just felt like another battle. Story wise, it was complete garbage.
With the indoctrination theory, it actually makes sense, but besides that, nothing about the three endings (that area all pretty much the same) even have much to do with the whole trilogy. I chose to pretend the indoctrination theory was Bioware's idea and that's how I can still manage to play through the games.
I think in turns of pacing and story i think the Lord of the rings the return of the kings is a good example of how ending should be in games. I know its a movie but if game developers can transfer that level of pacing and story into an epic game there won't be any trouble.
Theres' only a few game & game franchises that i felt had a fitting ending and these were Max payne 2 (before the 3rd), RDR i feel had a good ending (son got revenge end of) and Bioshock 1. So fitting endings is possible
Red Dead Redemption: The ending was superb and fit the game's theme perfectly. There is no reason why anyone would be disappointed unless they didn't pay any attention to the game and only treated it like a run&gun/shoot-em-up while ignoring/skipping cutscenes.
LA Noire: Another very fitting ending to the game as it fit the noire genre and Cole Phelps' character. The only reason one would be disappointed is, like I said previously, they paid no attention to Cole Phelps' background or how he perceives himself as a result of that background, which makes it clear he will get himself killed if it meant redeeming himself.
Borderlands 1: You don't find out what was in that vault? That monster in the end was the only thing in that vault! The vault was essentially a prison to keep this thing inside and all the vault hunters were essentially being sent to destroy it, despite being lied to about what they're actually fighting towards. This is more a case of a lack of storytelling than a bad ending.
There are many games that deserve to be pointed out as having a bad ending, but RDR and LA Noire are certainly not anywhere on that list. Borderlands 1, maybe but that is a case of a lack of storytelling/foreshadowing throughout the entire game.
Bye answering all questions you opened up in he start of the story and throughout the adventure. Making sure all character development is complete. If there are muiple games and you promise from the first game the choices of that game will effect the ending of the third be sure to KEEP that promise. Don't cheap out on the ending, a powerful ending is very important to have satisfying results. It's also more than okay to follow up on the characters to see how they were effected and what they did after the main plot. Doing the same to cities planets and governments is also a good idea especially in a game like mass effect because of all the choices.
When creating an ending not only does the creator need to be happy with it but the fans.

Review: Apple iPod touch 2008 (8GB/16GB/32GB) + 2009 (8GB/32GB/64GB)
Company: Apple Computer
Website: www.Apple.com
Model: iPod touch (Late 2008/2009)
Price: $199 (8GB), $299 (32GB), $399 (64GB)
Compatible: PC/Mac
Pros: A substantial improvement to 2007's polarizing original iPod touch, featuring better screen and audio quality, superior battery performance, and lower prices for previously offered storage capacities. New enclosure looks and feels better in the hand than its predecessor, and adds both volume buttons and an integrated, decent speaker for easier listening. Incorporates hardware and software support for the Nike + iPod Sensor, lacking only support for Nike's wireless remote control, as well as limited support for upcoming microphone accessories. Continues to include all of the software and hardware features found in the prior iPod touch, with only one exception, enabling users to enjoy music, videos, games, web browsing and email, as well as numerous downloadable applications. Much faster transfer speeds than prior model. New 32GB and 64GB models offer faster processors and enhanced graphics capabilities, as well as new Voice Control and Accessibility features.
Cons: Low storage capacities relative to hard disk-based iPods continue to force users to choose between the smaller-screened and more capacious iPod classic or the bigger-screened and more versatile iPod touch. While improved, battery life is still not comparable to Apple's best prior iPod classic. No longer supports FireWire charging accessories, rendering the device unable to be recharged by some popular past iPod docks, speakers, and car kits, and video-out to an external display can only be unlocked by overpriced cables or relatively new docking accessories. Though hardware is now microphone-compatible, device currently lacks software support for microphone accessories, and recording software developed for the iPhone does not work. Software updates may add to device's actual cost of ownership.
In 2007, Apple released three substantially new iPods: the biscuit-shaped third-generation iPod nano (iLounge Rating: A), the metal-faced iPod classic (iLounge Rating: B+), and the phoneless iPhone called iPod touch (iLounge Rating: B-). This year, Apple has updated all three models with new features that range from trivial to important, generally improving each while boosting storage capacity for the dollar. Our review of the second-generation iPod touch (8GB/$199
) covers all of the key changes and details you want to know about. We've also posted a video walkthrough of the interface for those who may be interested.
Over the past seven years that we've been writing about iPods, there's never been a model as polarizing as the original iPod touch. As Apple's first multi-touch, widescreen iPod, the first-generation device offered certain features and potential that really excited users. It was the first iPod to include an 802.11b/g wireless antenna, enabling the device to not only play music and videos from its own library, but also to surf the web with a Safari web browser and purchase music wirelessly from the iTunes Store. But its potential was crippled by disappointingly high prices, low storage capacities, screen issues, and comparatively weak battery life. iPhone owners and fans of high-capacity iPods pilloried the device; even Apple CEO Steve Jobs surprisingly described it as "training wheels for the iPhone" only days after its announcement.
After initial sales apparently didn't meet expectations, Apple started to rehabilitate the iPod touch. Applications that had deliberately been left out from the iPhone were added back in, unfortunately in the form of a $20 software update. The company started to pitch the iPod touch as a breakthrough "mainstream Wi-Fi mobile platform," and later, after another $10 software update, began to highlight its potential as an affordable gaming device. Early adopters complained that Apple's policy of paid upgrades had fleeced them, but the new software was pre-installed at no charge on newly shipped touch units, undeniably growing the appeal of the device to new customers.
Still, it was obvious that software fixes weren't enough. With only 8GB of storage capacity at a $299 price, the iPod touch seemed underequipped and overpriced when compared to the newer "$199" 8GB and "$299" 16GB iPhone 3G. It still lacked for a lot of the iPhone's functionality. And neither its audio nor its video quality was up to Apple's highest levels of performance.
Thus, the second-generation iPod touch has emerged with a number of substantial changes, and it hasn't lost anything—except as noted on page six—that was found in its predecessor. Physically redesigned, the new model is lighter and feels thinner than before, sports a nicer chrome front bezel, and packs both an internal speaker and side-mounted volume control buttons, just like the iPhone. Audio, video, and battery upgrades at least partially remedy concerns we had about its predecessor, while surprising new features—Nike + iPod Sport Kit and external microphone support—have been added to broaden its appeal to accessory users. Additionally, though storage capacities have stayed the same, their prices have dropped by $70-$100, making the device a much smarter buy than the first iPod touch. Our comprehensive review of the new model discusses all of these details, and many more; read on for what's new, what's old, and many illustrative photos.
[Editor's Note: On September 9, 2009, Apple introduced a physically identical "Late 2009" iPod touch model that has been variously described as the "third-generation" or "new" iPod touch, replacing the prior mid-range and high-end iPod touch units with higher-capacity, faster versions at the same price points. These models, the 32GB ($299) and 64GB ($399) iPod touch, were reviewed by iLounge on September 13, 2009. Apple also dropped the price of the second-generation 8GB model to $199. As such, we have added a tenth page to this review dealing exclusively with the new models and explaining our updated ratings.]
Editors' Note: iLounge only reviews products in "final" form, but many companies now change their offerings - sometimes several times - after our reviews have been published. This iLounge article provides more information on this practice, known as revving.

Robin & Ben go shopping
Robin Wright and Ben Foster, recently engaged, were in Vancouver this weekend. They went shopping. He needed some shoes.
These two, as I've said, are a good fit for each other. Robin can be terrifying on a red carpet. I've waited for her on a red carpet a few times. And each time, our team has been… apprehensive. There's a chill that comes off of her that makes you feel like no one would miss you if you died.
It's kind of the same with Ben. Except he doesn't stop. He's the star who shows up to a gala premiere at a film festival, super casual, walks the carpet…but doesn't stop for photographers or interviews and sneers at you when you ask for one. Please note – there is a back door at RTH at TIFF. All I'm saying is if George Clooney can show up an hour early and shake hands with fans and do some media to promote a film, it might not be a bad example to follow.
They're perfect together. And they look really, really happy together.

I was in one of my local thrift store haunts this past week, and besides scoring a brand new pair of Bostonian Brown Cap-Toe Oxfords and a very gently used pair of Bass Weejuns, I came a cross a recording of Pictures I didn't know existed. This particular recording features The Chicago Symphony under the direction of Neeme Jarvi performing Pictures and Scriabin's "Poem of Ecstasy". It is on the Musical Heritage Society label (#513492W), but seems to have been originally recorded by Chandos. The gem in the crown is a wonderful interpretation of Bydlo by Mr. Pokorny, made all the more satisfying because he gets name credit on the liner and on the cd itself. Nice sound with an astute knowledge of how the solo fits in the fabric of the movement over all. The rest of the recording is nice. I don't care for the piece at all, but this has all the hallmarks of a low brass jocks dream; blazing low brass and wonderful brass playing in general. The rest of the orchestra is along for the ride, IMHO. The Scriabin is well done. The recordings were made on November 27-28, 1989 in Orchestra Hall.
I was fortunate enough to find the Mehta/NYPO Wagner offerings on cd the same day. Needless to say this is pretty amazing. Mr. Deck decks the orchestra in all the time honored favorites. Glad to see the inclusion of the music leading up to Seigfrieds Funeral Music. The Immolation Scene is well done with some astounding bass/contrabass trombone playing. Far be it for me to question the musical end of things, but let's just say it's loud and played at for the majority of the time. YMMV.

Cody Karey's 'You Are the Song' Video (Exclusive Premiere!)
Check out the premiere of Cody Karey's brand new music video "You Are the Song," provided exclusively to JustJared.com.
"The making of 'You Are The Song' was like a weekend whirlwind inside Arthur Conan Doyle's 'The Lost World'!" the 21-year-old singer told JustJared.com. "The locations and epic vistas were absolutely mind-blowing."
"I can't tell you how excited I am to finally share this music video! The whole experience of making the video was one I'll always remember. Truly unforgettable locations and working with amazing people. We're all really proud of the final video!" Cody added. "The only negative thing I can say is that I was a little jealous of our male actor, John. He got to do all of the cliff frolicking, hand holding and pretty-lady-kissing," he joked.
