Justin Timberlake Calls Marine Corps Ball: “Most Moving Evenings I’ve Ever Had”

justin timberlake marine corps ballJustin Timberlake accepted an invitation in July to attend the Marine Corps Ball, and last night the star kept his word.

On Saturday, Timberlake escorted Cpl. Kelsey De Santis to the Marine gala at the Greater Richmond Convention Center in Richmond, Virginia.

He posed with several Marines at the event, and was nothing less than gracious.

On Sunday, he took to his blog to talk about “one of the most moving evenings I’ve ever had.”

Timberlake wrote about “the honor and privilege” he had attending the ball.

He said, “I’ve always been very vocal about my support of our Armed Forces. I’ve always felt like they offered us the opportunity to live our lives freely without the fear that so many other nations have to endure still to this day. And, they do it without asking for anything in return. I had this very feeling walking into this dinner.”

Of his date De Santis, Timberlake noted, “She seemed to me to be so humble and honest… Very cool. She also simultaneously seemed like she was nervous about the whole evening and if I was going to enjoy myself… It’s not every day that I meet a 23 year old girl and she’s more worried about if I’m having fun or if I’m comfortable! It hit me all of a sudden that these were the type of people that look after us and our freedom… Humble, concerned for others before themselves… This was the type of person our Marine Corps was building. I was really blown away.”

Timberlake said he “laughed and laughed” with the Marines at his table, but was mostly “moved” by the evening’s speeches and tributes.

He added, “To all of you that serve every day for us… Ensuring our freedom, I say: My deepest gratitude to you. I’ve met so many of my heroes… From Michael Jordan to Michael Jackson. And, nothing makes me feel more honor and pride than when I get to meet one of you. Last night changed my life and I will never forget it.”

Timberlake further asked, “To people like me who get to benefit from this type of person… One with character and courage. With strength and bravery. With humility and honor… I say: Send your thanks. Do it however you can. Write a letter, type an email… Hell, buy ‘em a beer next time you run into someone from our Armed Forces in a bar. When they say thank you for that drink that cost you 3 bucks, they’ll mean it. They won’t take it for granted and, they won’t forget it.”

“Thank you Corporal Kelsey De Santis,” concluded the superstar. “Thank you for inviting me. And, thank you for being my hero.”

Several months ago, De Santis posted a YouTube video in which she looked into a camera and told Timberlake that she wanted to “ask [him] to come to the Marine Corps ball with me… And if you can’t go, all I have to say is cry me a river.”

It's official: Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato split

After a whirlwind romance Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato have called it quits, according to several US online reports.


There have been strong rumors that the Disney stars have ended their love relationship, with further speculation that Jonas dumped Lovato over the phone in the same way he dumped Taylor Swift a couple of years ago. While some reports claim that Joe Jonas, the middle brother of the famous band ‘Jonas Brothers', and the ‘Camp Rock' star Lovato have ended their romance on the phone, some others say the teen sensation Lovato announced the break-up via twitter.


Joe Jonas back on the market!

If a report from Toronto Sun is to be believed Joe Jonas, from the Jonas Brothers, split from Lovato earlier this month comes just weeks after the pair went public with their relationship. Joe, 20, and Lovato, 17, first met on the set of Camp Rock in 2007 and went public with their relationship in March during a radio interview with Billy Bush, according to People.com.

There have been strong rumors that the Disney stars have ended their love relationship, with further speculation that Jonas dumped Lovato over the phone in the same way he dumped Taylor Swift a couple of years ago.The popular celebrity magazine's website states the Disney stars have made it official that the two are no more dating each other.


A source told the website that Joe and Lovato are not together anymore but they still will hit the road together in the Dallas starting this July 27th.

Split on phone or face to face confrontation? Us Weekly reports that Joe used his cell phone to end the relationship because he "didn't have the heart to do it in person. He thought it wasn't a good idea for them to be dating and working together all time and was afraid it was ruining the friendship."

But Lovato has rubbished claims Joe dumped her over the telephone. According to Toronto Sun, in a post on her Twitter.com page, the teen star wrote: "There are so many crazy rumours flying around today. I'd like to clear a few things up. First, Joe and I did split but it wasn't over the phone. Things didn't work out but we'll remain friends. Secondly, I am NOT dating anybody already. Nothing is more important to me than the relationship I have with my fans. Just thought you guys should know this."


Joe Jonas confirms split

The publication also quoted Joe as confirming his split with Lovato, and admitting it was his decision to end the union to focus on being friends.

According to Sun, Joe told People, "Demi and I knew going into our romantic relationship that it may not be an easy one. I realize over the time we have shared together that I feel I care more about our friendship right now. "It was my choice to break up but I love her as a friend. She's been there for me when I needed her. I will continue to be her friend and be there for her."


Duo's love confession in the past

The Disney stars' breakup comes days after the duo talked to People about their relationship, with Lovato saying she was looking forward to touring with the Jonas Brothers this summer. "I'm fortunate that I get to work with the person that I'm in the relationship with," she told the magazine. "Rather than being across the country and texting him, I can have him hold my hand when I'm tired." Joe also told the magazine how their friendship became a romance. "I think after the movie was complete, then we kind of took the time to get to know each other a little deeper," he said. Also, Lovato last week told the press, "This is my first serious relationship … He knows me better than I know myself, and I know better than himself."

Halloween Costume Ideas For Groups: Adult Addams Family Fancy Dress Costumes

Halloween parties and fancy costumes battles call for new and unique costume ideas. We look for dresses that can grab attention in a party or will get you the winner's crown in the competition. So, if you too are in search of a brilliant costume idea then try Addams family dresses this time. The Costumes are based on the characters from 'The Addams Family' TV series. The series has been one of the most popular in American TV history and the characters are a huge hit with audience. Dressing as Addams family characters will bring out the nostalgia of yester years and you will surely enjoy all the attention from onlookers.

They're creepy and they're kooky - The Addams Family television series reruns are some of the most watched by today's kids and adults. Kids love them, and the costumes are sure to provide a ghoulish cast to your family-style Halloween. Morticia, Gomez, Wednesday and Uncle Fester can all come alive when you dress up your family in these unique Halloween costumes, complete with wigs.

.99 (Retail .99)

Revealing, low cut floor length dress with drop sleeves and traditional waist length wig.

The Addams Family are truly the first family of Halloween and the most recent incarnation is the "New Addams Family" television series. So, this year why not assemble your friends and family and take on the persona's of the coolest and creepiest family around!

Why not be Morticia, seductive wife of Gomez Addams. manufactured by Rubies' Costumes, comes with a long black polyester dress with long spider tulle sleeves and hanging spider tulling, similar to the one Morticia wears in the New Addams Family TV series. Just add a long black wig to finish it off. The Morticia costume set and other Addams Family costumes are available at this Halloween costume store.

Morticia's skin tone varied between episodes from a pale white to an ashen gray. We'd choose to use a pale white on face, neck and hands. Her lips are a bright blood red color. For her eyes use a smoky black on the lids, heavy black eye liner and lots of mascara. She wears the same bright blood red nail polish on her long, claw like finger nails. You can buy precolored, claw like glue on nails during Halloween season or have a set of acrylics put on for the occasion.

Signature chair - Morticia is often seen sitting in a rattan peacock chair, like a queen of the family on her dilapidated throne. If you can find one, this makes a great presentation for Halloween if you are throwing an Addams family themed party. Rattan peacock chairs are still made, but can be difficult to locate and because of there size are usually not shippable. Try a local import store.

.99 (Retail .99)

Low cut, scoop neck, long sleeve midriff top, with mini skirt and pigtail wig.

She also wears a thin necklace around her willow-like throat that has red beads on it. You can use any type of necklace that you like, even a bat medallion, skull or some other Gothy looking necklace.

Why not be the sexy, yet morose Morticia or the ever popular, suave Gomez with this synonymous cigar.

We all love Uncle Fester who could light up a gloomy room with this jokes and giggle. An especially unique idea for the Addams Family costume would be the Cousin It wig and add a black robe to complete him.

.99 (Retail .99)

Addams Family - Uncle Fester Costume (Boy - Child Large 12-14)

These Halloween costumes are easy to wear, come with accessories that will help to convince all that you are a character from this TV show.

‘The Walking Dead,’ Season 2, Episode 1, ‘What Lies Ahead’: TV Recap

the walking dead season 2The actual undead possess evenly horrible footwear. Which is actually one of a number of zombie guidelines communicated within the period elite associated with “The Strolling Lifeless. ”

AMC’s darkish as well as image TELEVISION variation from the darkish graphic-novel sequence concerning the ragtag survivors associated with zombie apocalypse accumulates correct in which the six-episode very first period remaining away. The survivors happen to be towards the Facilities with regard to Illness Manage within Atl, discovered absolutely no expect a remedy or even any kind of working culture, as well as steered clear of times prior to the service self-destructed.

To begin Period two, Sheriff’s Deputy Ron Grimes intones the tired soliloquy more than their walkie-talkie with regard to the advantage of Morgan, the actual folk 1 / 2 of the father-son survivor duo he or she experienced completely in the actual show’s initial occurrence. Somber feeling adequately arranged, Ron ties their little survivor convoy since the team mind from Atl to some army fortification 125 kilometers aside.

A good impassable interstate blocked along with forgotten automobiles may be the location for the training about the zombies’ substandard shoes. The actual survivors tend to be captured not aware with a moving influx associated with “walkers, ” the word denizens associated with “Walking Dead”-land make use of first and foremost whenever talking about zombies, whenever Winnebago-driving Dale provides among the all-time most detrimental shows like a roof hunt. Along with very little time in order to extra, the majority of the survivors conceal beneath vehicles – giving the actual target audience the close-up take a look at lots of footwear as well as an opportunity to picture the actual fragrance associated with necrotic ft. (The actual guideline regarding zombie odours can also be reiterated with this occurrence, along with decomposing physiques accustomed to maintain ramblers away. )#) Andrea, the main one survivor that unsuccessful to locate a great concealing place, assists the actual target audience segue right into a 2nd guideline associated with zombie success: don’t help to make sound, think hard regarding gunfire. Caught within the RV’s small restroom, your woman dispatches the zombie along with screwdriver with the attention whenever the woman's hand gun can’t be produced to operate. This particular screwdriver destroy is actually critical. Experienced Andrea flourish in shooting the woman's tool, the actual moving herd – the phrase the actual survivors select after with regard to big categories of zombies – might already been interested in the woman's placement. Andrea has shown suicidal habits, as well as the woman's unwillingness to completely understand the effects associated with gunfire prospects the actual gun-totting man survivors (Dale, Ron as well as an additional law-enforcement other called Shane) to consider aside the woman's hand gun.

The actual herd goes by, although not prior to Sophia is actually chased from the woman's concealing place as well as to the forest. Sophia is actually 1 of 2 young children within the survivor posse, and also the work to locate the woman's as well as mollify the woman's agonized mom Carol occupies all of those other occurrence. Ron along with a crossbow-wielding Daryl Dixon carry out an initial ineffective look for the actual youthful woman, an attempt assisted through Daryl’s monitoring abilities (somebody is definitely experienced from monitoring! )#) as well as gusto with regard to wilds zombie-autopsy methods. (Option quotation: “Yeah, hoss experienced a large dinner recently. Personally i think this inside. ”

An additional guideline is made in this period: pace. “Walking Dead” zombies may shamble in a fairly quick cut, as well as based on Ron they're not going to obtain winded using their exertions. Nevertheless, these types of aren’t the actual illumination quick zombies we’ve observed in current films such as “28 Times Later on, ” and that's why the actual herd development continues to be probably the most solid.

Through the episode’s finish, Sophia may nevertheless not really end up being discovered. As well as that’s not really the only real concern remaining hanging with regard to forthcoming attacks. Andrea is actually seeking to depart the actual human being herd as well as wishing Shane, that your woman overhears using a unpleasant discussion along with Lori, is going to be the woman's trip aside. Dale is actually prepared to lay as well as change their other survivors inside a bet to manage the actual unstable team powerful.

However the greatest brand new concern is actually elevated within the shutting times from the occurrence. Carl Grimes, boy associated with Lori as well as Ron and also the additional prospect with regard to child-in-jeopardy situations, is actually chance in the middle of a good or else captivated experience by having an elk. The actual unpredicted capturing seems to be any sort of accident, using the silent and invisible present shooter most likely planning to possess strike just the actual elk.

Which simply leaves Carl’s destiny because over cast because Sophia’s, as well as simply leaves the survivors using the clear recommendation that they're not by yourself.

Zombies Wiped out: 7 (2 through hole, 2 through bludgeoning, 1 through arrow, as well as 3 through reduces from the kickass toolbox associated with machetes as well as cleavers).

Bill Gates leads tributes to Steve Jobs

Microsoft chairman Bill Gates has released a statement paying tribute to Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, who died on Wednesday.

The former head of Microsoft said he was "truly saddened" to hear of Jobs' passing and saluted the "profound impact" he had on the world.

"I'm truly saddened to learn of Steve Jobs' death," said a statement released through his spokesperson.

"Melinda and I extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends, and to everyone Steve has touched through his work.

"Steve and I first met nearly 30 years ago, and have been colleagues, competitors and friends over the course of more than half our lives.

"The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to come."

"For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it's been an insanely great honor. I will miss Steve immensely."

Storied rivalry


Microsoft and Apple have, of course, had a storied rivalry lasting over 30 years.

Jobs and Gates had locked horns while the rival Macintosh and Windows platforms went head-to-head throughout the 80s and 90s, and right up until Gates stepped down as Microsoft CEO in 2008.

Microsoft's co-founder Paul Allen also released a statement calling Jobs a "unique pioneer and auteur."

Allen said: "My condolences to Steve Jobs' family and friends. We've lost a unique tech pioneer and auteur who knew how to make amazingly great products. Steve fought a long battle against tough odds in a very brave way. He kept doing amazing things in the face of all that adversity. As someone who has had his own medical challenges, I couldn't help but be encouraged by how he persevered."

Barack Obama, Disney thank Jobs


US President Barrack Obama tweeted: "Rest in peace, Steve Jobs. From all of us at #Obama2012, thank you for the work you make possible every day—including ours."

Also among those paying tribute was Bob Igner, president and CEO of Disney, where Jobs was on the board.

"Steve Jobs was a great friend as well as a trusted advisor, he said. "His legacy will extend far beyond the products he created or the businesses he built. It will be the millions of people he inspired, the lives he changed, and the culture he defined."

Schmidt: 'One of the greatest'


"Steve Jobs is the most successful CEO in the U.S. of the last 25 years," says Google's executive chairman and former CEO Eric Schmidt.

"He uniquely combined an artists touch and an engineers vision to build an extraordinary company. One of the greatest American leaders in history."

Author Neil Gaiman tweeted: "Thank you Steve Jobs. You left the world better, and more interesting, than you found it."

Rupert Murdoch, CEO of Newscorp said: "Today, we lost one of the most influential thinkers, creators and entrepreneurs of all time. Steve Jobs was simply the greatest CEO of his generation.

"While I am deeply saddened by his passing, I'm reminded of the stunning impact he had in revolutionizing the way people consume media and entertainment. My heart goes out to his family and to everyone who had the opportunity to work beside him in bringing his many visions to life."

Michael Dell, CEO of Dell Inc said: "Today the world lost a visionary leader, the technology industry lost an iconic legend and I lost a friend and fellow founder. The legacy of Steve Jobs will be remembered for generations to come."

Larry Page, CEO of Google: "He was a great man with incredible achievements and amazing brilliance. He always seemed to be able to say in very few words what you actually should have been thinking before you thought it. His focus on the user experience above all else has always been an inspiration to me."

Director Steven Spielberg said:"Steve Jobs was the greatest inventor since Thomas Edison. He put the world at our fingertips."

Bestselling author and occasional TechRadar columnist Michael Marshall Smith blogged: "Jobs was sometimes exasperatedly accused of operating a 'reality distortion field', but the fact is that yes, he really did change our realities. Apple – and Steve Jobs in particular – turned the computer into something we want at the core of our lives, rather than merely tolerate there. That's the step from the past into the future. Jobs was the guy who got us here.

"The near future seems a lot less bright tonight. It doesn't seem as easy to believe that something new and insanely great will always be just around the corner."

Steve Jobs and the idea of letting go

Remember a few years ago, when your Apple Store on any given Saturday afternoon ceased being the clean, technological zendo you once admired — the place you bought your iMac — and instead became a crowded bazaar of idealized wonder and hopeless waits at the Genius Bar?The movement spread. People built their lives around the objects Steve Jobs gave them: the MacBook, the iPod, the iPhone, the iPad. What happened with Jobs and Apple over the past decade is one of the rare participatory phenomena of our disconnected and no-longer-common culture. It was as if this generation’s defining event took place in a shopping plaza and then up in the “cloud,” and this time everyone (that is, everyone who could afford Apple products) got to go to Woodstock.



As word of Steve Jobs' death spread, Apple users passing by the company's store in New York City's Meatpacking District remembered Jobs as a great innovator who made technology feel personal. (Oct. 5)

People stopped lining up for concert tickets and started lining up for new phones. This was the future right in front of you. It was sleek, responding to your touch. Imagine explaining an iPad to someone from 1984. They might get it, they might not.



Jobs died Wednesdayat age 56 from a long battle with pancreatic cancer that his wasting form came to wear as familiarly as his preference for outdated jeans and black turtlenecks. When news of his death broke around 7:30 p.m. on the East Coast, a good number of us sought immediate solace (to say nothing of information) from our Apple stuff. The rippling tweets and shares fanned outward.Swipe, swipe, touch. The nighttime news anchors, fearful of the obsolescence that dogs them at every turn, turned to social-media feeds for confirmation of a shared sense of loss; they invited hipster tech writers and thinkers who scorn old-media ways to make themselves available to grieve analytically on the air. (The digitalair, that is; in Jobs’s world, we sacrificed the broadcast band to the broadband.) You can easily imagine newspaper assignment desks, similarly afflicted with professional hypochondria, scrambling reporters to Apple stores to gather quotes from the bereaved.That is what Steve Jobs gave us: the future. A sense of ourselves moving forward into this century, which has proved especially hard to do, with its lack of employment opportunities and its addiction to panic. He gave us a look at the future and all the ambivalence and worry that comes with it. It was the most elegant form of social disruption, and now your kids won’t glance up from their iPhones. They’ll never need to.

We spend a lot of time wishing for the past, carping about our gizmos and the sway they lord over us, while loading up our iPods with songs that were popular when we were in high school, while stalking old boyfriends on Facebook. That in itself is a pleasant form of grief, but it is grief all the same.

Jobs kept nudging us away from that. Under his leadership, Apple’s subliminal selling point was: Let it go. Let go of the uneasiness about computers. Let go of ugly, antique technology. Let go of the fantasy future of personal rocketships. Let go of the phone that you bought last year for the shiny new phone that’s coming out this year. But let go of something deeper, something resistant in you that romanticizes the past.

In 2011, so much of our culture — as well as our politics — feels as though we’re losing grip on the old, beloved things. Where did record stores go? What happened to letters that come in the mail? Where did movie theaters go? What about the books? Where is my Main Street? Where is my America?

Jobs had been teaching us to say goodbye to all that for decades — we just didn’t know it. Some of us said goodbye to typewriters in the 1980s when we finished term papers using MacWrite on a Macintosh Plus for the first time. Some of us said goodbye when we made PTA fliers and Lost Dog posters that were far and away better than their Sharpie-scrawled predecessors. Let it go, let it go: Take your CDs to Goodwill; give your books to the library sale.

It was therefore an irresistible metaphor, in these final years, when the auditorium lights in would go down and the crowd would go wild for Jobs, who increasingly greeted his followers and touted the latest neat, new thing even as he wore the look of a person who was not going into that future with us. He would be getting off here; we were to proceed without him into the unknown. Let it go and look ahead was the message all along.

5 console games that are better on PC

This week we're pulling a cheeky 180 and siding with the PC crowd. Below is a list of five games that were developed for the consoles or traditionally thought of as console franchises that are better on PC.

Let us know what you think of our picks and which console games you think are better on PC.

LA NOIRE


Click to view larger image


We know this one hasn't even had chance to hit shelves yet but we've seen it in action and trust us LA Noire benefits from the power a decent PC rig can pump out.

The crisper lines and the superior rendering capabilities do the usual job of giving a richer appearance and experience as a result. Especially for a game like LA Noire, where visual atmosphere is such a crucial part, the capabilities of a good PC can go a long way.

But even if you haven't seen the game at work on PC yet, you only need to look at the box to see why you might want to discount the consoles.

PC players are getting The Complete Edition, which means that all the LA Noire DLC in existence comes in the box and its ready and waiting for you to flick on a bit of stereoscopic 3D, which really brings the world to life.

GTA IV


Click to view larger image


The Grand Theft Auto games always have plenty of impactful, quirky and downright outrageous characters generally getting up to no good in them, but it's always the city the criminal antics are set in that shines the brightest.

After all these years, when the memories of characters transplanted from Scarface have faded, we can still remember almost every sun-drenched inch of the 1980s inspired Vice City. Though we might not be able to fully recall exactly what went down between Nico and Dimitri Rascalov, we can still grab a controller and give you a guided tour of Liberty City.

But over time these beautiful metropolis' fall prey to the passage of time, their beauty diminishes as gaming technology progresses. Except on the PC, where insanely talented modders are able to breathe new life into each city, constantly updating them like some sort of supreme architect with an inexhaustible supply of time and money.

For that reason alone we're willing to argue that the Grand Theft Auto games are superior on PC.

GEARS OF WAR


Click to view larger image


One word: Brumak. On the Xbox 360 it was just that enormous monster you saw in a cut-scene, but on PC it was that enormous monster that terrorised you for a few hours before trapping you and forcing you to go toe to er...claw, with it.

Even without five extra single-player chapters, three additional multiplayer maps to spend hours in and a map editor and builder, the idea of fighting the Brumak was enough to get us to purchase and play through Gears of War all over again. And you know what? It was totally worth it.

MASS EFFECT


Click to view larger image


Admittedly, most of our time spent with BioWare sci-fi epic series Mass Effect has been on console, but we've always made an effort to test the PC waters too.

It's easy to pick out the visuals and say how much better Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2 look. How the PC versions allow the game to run at much higher resolutions, how there aren't any texture fade in issues and how every edge is razor sharp.

But actually it was the inventory management changes that made the biggest impact. Given how poor the first game's item management system was having a streamlined, more user-friendly system that was easy to navigate was liberating.

The truth is the Xbox 360 version came out a few months before the PC release, and by the time the PC version came around we were already invested in our characters, and that determined where we'd be playing subsequent sequels. If it wasn't for that we'd be playing it on PC.

BATTLEFIELD: BAD COMPANY 2


Click to view larger image


Let's not beat around the bush, although Battlefield: Bad Company and its sequel were designed as and are the two most console-centric entries in the franchise, they're PC games downgraded and shoehorned on to consoles.

We're not saying they're bad games, in fact Battlefield developer DICE did a fantastic job of adapting the series' unique brand of large-scale warfare for consoles, but at the end of the day it was always going to be better on PC.

You only have to look at the game to see why it's superior on PC, there's an overwhelming amount of visual detail compared to the console version, and the Frostbite engine is given much more room to stretch its legs. On the console Bad Company 2 lifts its skirt a little and gives a cheeky wink, on PC it's puts on a seductive striptease.

Also, keyboard and mouse.

Torrey Smith Has Breakout 3 TD Game for Ravens

Baltimore Ravens Wide receiver Torrey Smith had a career-altering day on Sunday in what was his very first start for the quasi-expansion NFL franchise.

After coming up catchless in his first two games as a Raven, Smith, a second round draft pick, got his opportunity to shine in the absence of veteran wide-out Lee Evans – and shine he did.

In the first quarter alone, Torrey Smith’s first three catches were for touchdowns totaling 133 yards that ignited the Baltimore Ravens’ franchise record-setting day on offense in a 37-7 rout Sunday.

With 12:20 left in the first quarter, Ravens QB Joe Flacco found Smith bolting down the sideline and hit him with a 74-yard touchdown pass. With 3:38 left, Flacco again looked to Smith, who easily blew by the Rams’ secondary for a 41-yard touchdown catch. Less than two minutes later, Smith showed his athleticism once more, leaping over Rams cornerback Justin King and coming down with the ball in the end zone for this third score.

Smith’s contribution to the team – he finished with five catches for 152 yards and three touchdowns – allowed the Ravens set two franchise records: One for most offensive yards in the first half with 406 and another for most offensive yards in a game with 533 – breaking a record that had previously been held since 1996.

I never doubted myself for a minute,” said Smith, the first rookie in NFL history and just the 12th player to score three touchdowns in a quarter. “I’ve been playing football forever. I’ve been making plays forever.”

The Hangover 2 Preview & Movie Summary

Sequels are usually dangerous for fans hoping to recapture the experience they had with part one of anything. Sequels are never dangerous for those who profit from their release. If you build it, they will come, but only if they liked the first one, even if they’re well aware of how many hours they’ve wasted watching sequels they don’t like. There are rare exceptions like “Terminator 2” or “Godfather 2”, but “The Hangover” is a film that did not need a relapse. Especially one that’s not very funny.

12 Things To Look For In The NBA 2K12 Demo







The highly-awaited demo for NBA 2K12 made its way to Xbox Live and Playstation Network yesterday and fans are now getting a taste of what to expect when the game ships on October 4th. The brief demo places you in a rematch of the 2011 NBA Finals as the Dallas Mavericks at home as they face the Miami Heat.

Much like previous demos in the 2K series, commentary and gameplay options have been cut so as to not give too much away. You can't even switch out to play the Heat, possibly not to spoil you with two of the highest rated current players to mess with. Or it could be because 2K Sports likes winners, so they "stuck" you with the Mavs.

While a shortened one quarter demo is not enough to make an assumption on the quality of the final game, there are bits and pieces that fans will be able to pick apart and mull over until October. And no, LeBron's hairline isn't one of them.

Here is what I noticed from playing the demo several times over:
Advertisement


  1. The music video opener - Before the game even starts, you are treated to a tv broadcast style introduction of the top players from the dressing room to the court with pre-packaged game action interspersed to Jamaica's "By The Numbers." Unfortunately, the NBA is NBC Theme is MIA.

  2. Jason Kidd and Dwyane Wade love Chris Paul - New Orleans point guard Chris Paul is one of the best on the open floor during a fast break and he has a signature move where he seemingly throws the ball in front of him but runs fast enough to catch up to it and continue his dribble. Few players try it because it's a dangerous move that can lead to easy steals if your name isn't Chris Paul. Jason Kidd and Dwyane Wade used this move several times during my playthroughs. Curious, I guess...

  3. Hello (and Goodbye?), Rudy Fernandez - The starting lineup of the Mavericks is way off from what we saw in the NBA Finals. Caron Butler is back and healthy, but Rudy Fernandez is also a starter as well, after spending the past two seasons toiling under the black hole that is Andre Miller and Portland. This group might not be the same you see in two weeks because 2K Sports won't be able to update the rosters until after the lockout ends and Kotaku has reported that the rosters will be similar to the last patch that NBA 2K11 got, pre-Fernandez trade.

  4. Only Jason Kidd can pass like Jason Kidd - The most common complaint I heard in NBA 2K11 was that passing was either awful or unfair because of the defense's uncanny knack for picking off passes. I learned that the hard way, but I also realized that I can't expect Dwight Howard to make the same precision pass that a Steve Nash or a Kidd would throw. So I adapted and only threw risky passes with competent players. In other words, I learned to suck less at passing. Something to consider.

  5. LeBron James is wearing the Nike LeBron 9 - Coincidence that the shoe was also officially announced yesterday? Hmmmm...

  6. Dwyane Wade is wearing the Jordan Fly Wade - Because no one else does. Sorry, D-Wade...

  7. Jason Kidd is wearing generic shoes again - I guess Peak isn't in the game...

  8. Dirk Nowitzki likes to move - To compliment his unorthodox game, 2K has given Dirk a full repertoire of animations that look more akin to a guard than somebody of his height. The improved post game shows off Dirk's sweet jump shot(s) and fadeaway that are scary accurate, right down to the leg kick.

  9. Catch and shoot never looked so good in a video game - Aside from my favorite play of letting Dirk go to work on Chris Bosh or LeBron and overwhelm them with post moves, I also enjoyed setting up Fernandez for a three-pointer as he ran through screens. The smooth transition from Fernandez catching the ball to shooting it is just fun to watch. Reggie Miller would be proud.

  10. Shots and layups around the rim need a while to get used to - The increased freedom in determing what kind of shot you take close to the basket resulted in more than a few bad shots for myself. Having more options as to what to do if a defender comes also means that you might randomly flick the right stick and end up with a blocked shot or careen out of bounds.

  11. The vaccum isn't as obvious - During battles for the loose ball in previous 2K games, you could at times easily see the ball magically land in the hands of somebody almost immediately. 2K12 can even take you into the stands to go after the ball, which can happen if you're not paying attention and you lead your guy into a place even Metta World Peace wouldn't dare go.

  12. In the last possesion of the quarter, LeBron dribbled the clock down only to pass it to D-Wade for a bad shot - I swear this happened at least three times and I didn't double team LeBron to force the ball out of his hands.

Facebook News : Facebook as Tastemaker

SAN FRANCISCO : Facebook, a Web’s most important social network, is definitely where you actually visit just what exactly your friends will be up to. At this moment it prefers to be a compel that models what you look at, perceive, learn and purchase.

Symbol Zuckerberg announced innovative developments so that you can Facebook for Thursday.

A company proclaimed new benefits here for This that could build up a bittorrent of posts about what you actually and your Twitter friends will be doing internet: Honest is looking at “The Hangover, ” Jane is definitely listening to Jay-Z, Symbol is definitely running a kind wearing Nike sneakers, plus so forth. This in turn, Twitter and its many of significant other companies anticipation, is going to influence just what exactly Honest plus Jane plus Mark’s friends take.

Twitter, around short, strives never to be a Web-site spent a lot of time for, nonetheless something that is your web : and ever more offline : life.

“We think it’s an important alternative to help convey to the narrative of your life, ” said Symbol Zuckerberg, Facebook’s leader, who seem to announced the new benefits at the company’s annual office meeting for web developers. Your dog called just what exactly Facebook appeared to be executing an effort so that you can “rethink some establishments. ”

Facebook’s moves sharpen the war strains between the public networking gigantic and Bing, a search gigantic, for the reason that Twitter is trying to swap the way people today find just what exactly they want internet. Hunting the web continues to the way a lot of people come across content : whether it is news flash, more knowledge about professional wedding photographers and also Europe chard recipes. Twitter is trying so that you can change this: around effect, associates will lead other associates to subject material. Bing includes its own public network supplement in Google+, nonetheless it is a long way behind Twitter.

“This is not one but two big equals getting into each one others’ yards, ” said Sean Corcoran, a strong expert by using Forrester Research. “It variations the game to get just what exactly social networks currently have been executing. Just what exactly Twitter says is definitely, we're also your life internet, and even how you come across and promote. ”

Twitter is not starting to be a purveyor of media channels products, for instance Apple and also Amazon.com. Rather, it is teaming up with companies that distribute music, movies, information and games in positioning itself to become the conduit where news and entertainment is found and consumed. Its new partners include Netflix and Hulu for video, Spotify for music, The Washington Post and Yahoo for news, Ticketmaster for concert tickets and a host of food, travel and consumer brands.

To get companies this distribute news flash and fun, your partnership by using Facebook might draw eyes and readers, while it continue to remains uncertain just how much extra revenue your Facebook companion recommendation might generate. Popular music industry experts reported the new Twitter offerings take a position to improve a prospects with new media channels providers like the popular music service Spotify, which will already includes two , 000, 000 users global. Nonetheless they also position a challenge so that you can the biggest popular music supplier of all: iTunes from Apple inc, which will has increased social benefits that have gathered little tissue traction expansion.

To get Facebook, a potential reimbursement is substantial, primarily as it wants to make on its own more priceless before your possible consumer offering. Your new aspect called Schedule lets buyers posting information about its past, for instance weddings plus big family vacations. Plus all over on the site, buyers will be able to extra precisely point just what exactly they are looking through, looking at, seeing and hearing or taking in. The following will make Facebook acquire even more priceless data as compared with it does at this moment about it has the users’ habits plus desires, which will in turn can be used to sell off more fine-tuned advertising.

The best way users is going to react to a new benefits remains to be to be found. A site’s trend could make them a lot easier for them to make your mind up how to shell out their time frame and capital. Nonetheless it could as well most likely enable them so that you can shut outside alternative opinions and information and facts that isn't remaining shared concerning its set of associates.

Plus not absolutely everyone wants to know they can count on the associates to contour their societal discoveries. “Some of this friends currently have pretty horrible taste around music, ” said Alexander White, in whose Colorado-based Next Significant Sound rails social media results for music artists and track record labels. “It’s one pool filter. It has the not a be-all, end-all. ”

When of Could, People wasted more time by using Facebook as compared with with the upcoming four premier Web companies combined, based to Nielsen. Erik Brynjolfsson, your teacher with control at the T. I actually. Testosterone. Sloan School with Management, detailed Facebook when “sort of a walled garden” that, to get better and also worse, might increasingly pool filter every other hobby on the internet.

“As Facebook results in being more and more synonymous with the Online experience, this is going to reward Facebook investors, ” Mr. Brynjolfsson said. “Facebook has been pretty successful around getting the lion’s share with people’s time plus attention. Its task in the approaching ages is to transfer that prominence in time plus particular attention into a more substantial share with consumer handbags and wallets : a bigger promote of capital they shell out frequently directly on Twitter or indirectly through marketing and advertising. ”

Alternative Internet the behemoths have enviable investments of their private. Bing has a mountain / hill of details based on the best way people investigation. The amazon online marketplace knows a good deal about what you might want to get, based mostly on what you’ve bought. Nonetheless no alternative technology enterprise has Facebook’s treasure trove of public data. Them has 500 million buyers, one half of exactly who return to the positioning every day, plus it also includes the information people reveal pertaining to themselves, oftentimes unwittingly. By using it, Twitter is able to make use of fellow tension at a huge scale.

Twitter executives express their campaigns as upending the traditional unit of promotion. Fairly than serving people get just what exactly they need, people aim to curate just what exactly they might really want.

It has the partnership by using Facebook, brewer of the preferred game Pet society, shows how Twitter can make use of its stand. A connections has been hugely lucrative to get both providers. If that unit can be duplicated with flicks, popular music, and also even news flash remains to be to be found.

Continue to, Twitter has become not avoidable for the fun business. Movie increasingly becomes aware the power with fellow ideas to sell flicks plus television shows; quite a few in the industry get in touch with this a “killer gateway. ”

Studios have extensive looked at Twitter as an vital marketing resource, setting up up web sites for character types and flicks. People are also experiments with presenting full flicks on the site. Warner Brothers, Miramax and Elephants Gate Fun have all of allowed Twitter buyers to watch flicks they have given for by using Facebook’s virtual foreign money, labeled Credits.

At this moment the studios are praying the Twitter platform is going to let these folks get in touch even more instantly with prospects : to seize your Facebook user’s attention by way of telling the girl's that the girl's friend includes witnessed a particular television system show.

Netflix wants to allow for readers to watch it has the video for Facebook. Nonetheless its blueprints face your obstacle around Washington. Your law labeled the Training video Privacy Safeguards Act discourages the put out with information about just what exactly flicks a person is reserving.
