Baron Davis or Gilbert Arenas. Since Arenas went down and never got into the playoffs I'll go with Baron.Talk about underrated! Lets see. The Mavericks underestimated him and cost the team with the best record in NBA their chance at a championship this year. One of the hardest working guys that plays with fire and passion! Being the leader in Oakland, he put the team on his back and carried them past the soon to be announced MVP of the league in Dirk Nowitzki. He doesn't care if he's the biggest guy on the team he just wants to win. Even when he played with the Hornets who seemed to be a Lottery team ever year, he went out and played like its Game 7 of the Finals every night.Though you may never hear his name mentioned with the likes of Michael Jordan or so on. His game and his play is just as big as theirs! I could have easily replaced Arenas name there with almost the same stuff.Guys people don't think about till they have to face them on the court!

Hi.. I have played SC1 and CaC3 not.. then I'm going just write my opinion about SC1 and SC2..All those lighting effects, 3d animations, the camera fov etc only makes averything to be nicer but less playable.About the units, I remember in the original sc at the begining blizz guys wanted us to believe that goons were the perfect counter for zerglings. I am sure that the sc1 success (perfect balance) was a mix of good luck and comunity help. I am not sure that those designers know what they are doing exactly.About the Thor unit, oh my god, is like a walking building, is the last thing I spected from those clever blizz lead designers. What about walking trees? or rocks? wait a moment, what about casting units from the environment? like water units and fire units...The onlly I dissagree is about reapers, a unit that can jump to your base at early game is an advanced unit, imagine the strategy of Lost Temple map at early game ruined by that unit... and it should not be range attacker....What blizz is trying to do now is to make a different game but as competitive as the original one. Message to blizz designers: stop copying the *BLEEP* war3, SC is not .about whatching awesome lighting effects

Im not to sure if this is the right place to post. But if i did post it at the wrong place can someone direct me to where i am supposed to post(thanks in advance)Ok here goes, i had to reformat brother computer due to some security breach cause by my idiotic friend who was doing a file transfer from another com. Brother's windows crashed and i tried rebooting numerous time and i couldn't get passed the loading screen. So i reformat brother's com and reinstalled windows and did a dxdiag and found that my directx was at 9.0b. I need 9.0c as a requirement for a game and i thought thank god that game which i had to reinstall came with a directx9.0c driver. So i proceed with the process of installing the driver and once the status bar got to the point where it should start copying files and finish the installation with a reboot, the whole installer just jumped immediately to click Finish to complete. So i thought wow that was fast, and so i click finished and nothing happened, i went and reboot my com anyway and did a dxdiag again and i still see the driver version as 9.0b i tried numerous times, downloaded numerous programs, and even updated my vga card which in the new version came with a 9.0c direct x driver which should be properly installed into my com. But after two days of reformatting reinstalling windows, reinstalling the drivers, im still stuck at 9.0b the reason why its at 9.0b is that brother's system driver cd came with 9.0b as default so when i installed all the system drivers it got updated to 9.0b i tried thrice by not installing that 9.0b driver and proceeded to install the 9.0c driver immediately.But when i did a dxdiag its at windows default directx8... So please if anyone could shed some light into this matter please i pray help me. This is already the third day of me trying to install the directx9.0c to no avail. thanks for those who post a solution for my problem in advance. thank you so much.Thanks for all replies

Theories How The Dinosaurs Got Extinct many
Soviet replied to hibbso's topic in Science and Technology
AAah..but what about the facts that dinosaur bones were never discovered by common people?.. unlike other archeologist found.. like the dead sea scroll.. have you ever heard dinosaur bones discovered by a child?..or a builder?you can't brought up folklore in a science arguments.. folklore was based on cultural beliefs, religious as well as mythic elements..not scientifical facts.. believe me I have heard many folklore coming from all over the world.. for example.. in Indonesia there's a folklore that a green giant called Butoijo.. come every full moon to eat crops and herds.. and every once in a while a child.. In mexico (or Peru) scientist discovered UFOs in the Maya-Aztec Temple reliefs.. not to mention Ogres and Trolls from Britain.. are you saying that all that was real?..and speaking of evolution..how come only few dinosaurs evolved but keep their form today?.. aside from komodo-dragon.. how come the physical condition were perfectly fitted millions of years ago..( and they keep it for another millions of years ).. but suddenly they evolved into a completely different form?etc.: birds.. and not just one species of dinosaur, but all of them.. all that roam on earth that is.. what made them change their form so extremely?.. global weather extreme changes?.. meteorite collision with earth?.. well they were doing fine for millions of years..and i bet in a million years the weather did changed a lot..okay let's say that a meteor really did crashed down and changed the global weather conditions.. let's say that the sun can't get through the clouds of dust for thousands of years.. and an extreme winter were upon the earth.. what about the dinosaur that already live in the cold climate such as the north end.. what happenned to them?.. changed into a bird also?..and finally..about museums.. really.. if something is displayed in the museum does it really mean it's real?.. have you ever heard the piltdown man case?.. the skull of the "missing link" was found by charles dawson..staged in the infamous London Natural History Museum and received many praise..even called the discovery of the century..then they found out that the skull were fabricated using orangutan jaw, human scalp and many other to form the great "missing link"..museum is a business.. a multi-billion-dollars business.. just like any other business in the world.. the thing is.. they're running out of "materials" to sell..just a thought.. no offense..Thanks for replies :XD: -
Eating is the first and most important factor that is needed to gain weight. It's simple - you need to eat more calories than you burn. This does not mean eating anything and everything that is not nailed down. Carefully plan your meals with foods that will help you gain lean mass, not fat. I suggest 6 meals. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and three other small meals scheduled throughout the day. The goal is to eat every 2.5 to 3 hours.Focus on foods such as steak, chicken, fruit, milk, vegetables, cheese and assorted types of nuts. It's recommended to eat 4 - 6 pieces of fresh fruit a day, and at least four tall glasses of milk. Milk is a great, cheap protein source - take advantage of it. A sample snack meal would be a glass of milk, an apple, and a hand full of peanuts.

First i'll tell you what i don't like. i hate house pets. toys and most terriers i can't stand, pit bull terriers and bull terriers being the exception. i love dogs that earn their keep. i like working dogs, no matter their specialty. collies and shepards herd; they bust their tails to please their masters. sled dogs....need i say more? hounds hunt, beit criminals, drugs, cancer or hogs, but they still earned their dinner! trained guard dogs (not the ones some moron taught to be mean) real trained guard or attack dogs- put their lives in danger so that you or the policemen don't have to. these are the dogs i love! But when I must say about one dog that it will be: Native American Dog. They look like wolves but behave very well. They can be working or hunting dogs but the majority are not so energetic that they have to be. They can be just family pets. Good for people with allergies, good with kids and pets and is the first dog I want to adopt. I?ve often lived with dogs but they weren?t my own to keep. Some photos:

It was really bad. The movie lacked any tension or heart for that matter. The story was just bad. When we got back home from my friend, where we were watching it, I began thinking of potential stories that were better.The only tension that could exist with Shrek becoming the king would be changing the focal point to the king's health. Have the King sick and dying and talking about how Shrek's gonna be the next King. Shrek doesn't want it. The King and Queen summon Shrek and tell him that something has been found that can cure him. So Shrek goes on this quest with Donkey, Puss n Boots, and maybe a few more. Blah blah blah they get the cure. When they get back, it really isn't a cure. It was the King showing Shrek that he has it in him to lead and it doesn't matter if he can't tell the difference in a shovel or a fork. blah blah blah and the king dies as Shrek finally accepts himself.Now, that isn't brilliant. nor that interesting. But Shrek 3's plot was bland and seemed only to exist so that Dreamworks could put Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Cinderella in their movie.(sorry for my english,it is still bad, but I'm starting using translator)

My first paintball :XD:so i go out to play some woodsball last year. it was freezing cold and my shocker was having issues. after tinkering for about an hour, i was like screw it. i never got my gun working so i decided to take it to the indoor field were thier gun tech was working.so here i am not playing paintball and being all pissed about it. i get to the field and it is jammed packed full of people. i checked to see what was going on, and as it turns out the Naughty Dogs were in the area and decided to stop by the field and play. it wasn't a promotional event they were just kickin back and balling it up.watching them break out from only 10 ft away is amazing.as it turns out i had a great day of paintballing even though i never fired a shot.

I'm starting this post to give out some of my theories on events and moments in the new Transformers Movie (next only TF), as well just my opinion on various things. Feel free to disagree, agree, discuss, and throw out your own opinions. Just please keep the flames to just being on optimal. Thx. Protoform Space Travel and Atmosphere Entry: I think the TF's in their Cometary Modes (those who have them) use a combination of energy shielding (as stated by Epps in the film) and extra armor to cover up more sensitive spots of their bodies during space travel. When the Autobots enter Earth, they have bits and pieces of metal and chunks of armor pop off and burn up. This to me seems like extra padding for boh space travel and atmosphere entry. I think that the TF's reconfigure themselves to go into space to both fend off the deep cold and allow themselves to block and absorb heat. Then when they reach a new planet they eject this armor to return to full Protoform Mode. This way they can easily adapt to new forms to fit their new surroundings. Megatron Speaking English and Calling His Name: To me, even if Megs was frozen, I believe he was semi-conscious enough to access the internet over time and to also listen and adapt to English that was spoken around him for the last 100 years or so. Upon him being released from his icy prison, he immediately called out his name to correct the humans around him from calling him "NBE-1" as well as to strike fear into them before he began his reign of destruction. Ironhide and Ratchet During the Final Battle: Some complain about how Ironhide and Ratchet disappeared in the last 10 minutes of the Final Battle. Well, just remember they were just in a short firefight with Starscream and both were shot. Ironhide took a missile to the gut and Ratchet got machine gunned at least twice and then knocked on his *bottom* when Starscream blew by him. Ironhide's entire abdomine was smoking when he told Sam "Get to the building!" You have to take into consideration that they had to repair as well as recover and try to repair Jazz (even if they don't show it - we know it happens). Transformer Screentime & Product Placement: We should try to accept all the product placement for this movie, because without all the eBay plugs, GMC car shots, and quick moments of other product flashes, the TF screentime would have been even smaller than it was. The TF's were in the movie a good bit, a lot more than I actually expected. They were in (by my guess) 70% of the movie. That's pretty good considering how much it took to make them and how much money it took to bring them to life. A lot of people want to hate on the product placement or short screentime, but this movie had half the budget of Spider-Man 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean 3 and yet IMO had much better solid effects overall. That's incredible really. Transformer Dialogue and Action: This is my opinion...just my opinion. I think the TF's dialogue was great. It was NOT perfect, but it was really good. I know many that would totally disagree with me, but Megatron felt like Megatron in his dialogue with Prime and in his actions in the Final Battle. All the Autobots were handled so well. They each had dialogue that helped show they were all different characters and they each did actions and movements that set each other apart from the others. Prime came across as a seasoned leader, Bumblebee held so much emotion in his face and actions that it was intense, Ironhide and Ratchet seemed to both work well together and yet were like arguing brothers, and Jazz was both flashy and cool in everything he did. Now does this mean all of it was perfect or amazing - NO. Some lines could have been used to better execution. And as a fanboy (like most here) I sure wanted more, but f*ck we got the best we could IMO for a first outing that many studios wouldn't even greenlight because they felt it was not worth making. Fanboy Wanting: There were only two parts where my inner fanboy was very disappointed. Both were dialogue useage scenes. First was Prime saying "On this day one shall stand, one shall fall." IMO - The scene should have been shot behind Prime, where you can see Megatron in the background and Prime talking to Megs, as it shows Sam running to hide from the coming battle royale between the two leaders. Basically after the line is said and Megs begins to charge at Prime, the camera goes down to Sam's level and we follow him out to safety away from the battle, then we pick right back up with Megs tossing Prime around. Secondly, was Megatron's "DECEPTICONS ATTACK!" line. IMHO - It should have show Megs in a wide shot with Blackout and Starscream transforming as they fly downwards behind him as he called out this line. I think that type of scene would have worked so much better (AS A FANBOY) with that scene. Having his soldiers react to his orders and just plain showing him order the Decepticons would have been nice to see, particularly if Megs begins to attack/shoot right after the line was delivered. Now I understand why neither of these scenes were handled like this - because of the movie being from the humans POV and wanting to show how everything around the TF's was being shown/dealt with. Doesn't mean I wouldn't have liked to see those scenes handled differently. Now please write your opinions at this. I saw this film 4 times (CAM version) then I know what I'm talking. I was writing this about 2hours :XD: Thank som all your opinions..

If it will be tomorow then first thing what I will do,I will telephone to all my friends (only that i like). I will tell them about my last day and i will go to pub to drink some beer. Then I will go to bank and give all I have to my family and friends :XD: If you can see I have my friends at 2. position after my family. And as manddyx told I would tell someone the things I had really wanted to say, but couldn't. It is hard to write about your last day because you are not living it now. It will be different when it will be your last day really. But as one of Slovak actors. Last days of his live he was with homeless people and he was drinking alcohol with them. It is bad to know when it will be your last day.

I Met A Girl Online, But I'm A Bit Shy...
Soviet replied to Affliction777's topic in Dating And Relationships
so first of all, you?ll never get a girl by asking for advice on the internet...shyness is a very bad thing, but hey, you?re a man and not a pu**y You have to watch how she reacts on you to see if you have any chances, is she interested in you? Dont you think, that you?re just bothering her and she is never the one who writes first? Arent you annoying to her?We can give you advice but you just have to do it yourself, we won?t date her instead of her...you can ask her a bit indirectly what she wants to do f.e. next weekend and if she says nothing then here is a good chance to ask her out. But as written before, dont ask her to go out too early, you can ruin everything -
I have question. When some webhosts have their own little icon in the address bar, can you give here your own? You need just put that code to your php or html? Or it is not working?

Awesome for me. 55years pencil in head and she didn't do anything. She was pretty lucky that that pencil don't hit her vital parts of her brain. But how she could live 55 years with headaches and nosebleeds i can't imagine. We can see how technology grows up for that age :XD: But roentgen of her head must be pretty funny.

Soviet replied to MiniDawg's topic in Science and Technology
I like questions like this when you must hard think about it.

I'm a 18 years old male. I don't know many girls but all girls I know are not interesting on PC. Sometimes two of them wanted to know about downloading music from internet. I said I will try to learn something about it but when I was talking everything about it they didn't know what the f*ck I'm talking about :XD: I was really depressed. I think they haven't some things in brain about PC and they can't learn it.Sorry girls but it is my story

All around the world are many many natural beauty girl and really hot. Then I can't choose the most hottest. Every girl have some beauty and in some way is hot :XD: -
For me girls are better at many ways. I always wanted to be just one day at girl's body. It makes me horny when I saw theirs clothes :XD: And why I'm talking they are better?:1. When they want sex man don't tell NO2. They can find a boyfriends for a while3. When they are thin it is more then better (Man if is thin he can hard find a girlfriend)4. etc :)Is there someone as me?

Amazing article. I always wanted to get better and better internet and this can be great way to make money for that organization and speed up our internet's.I think i will be for a while when this will be a normal internet speed..But 160gb/s is not acceptable for HDD ..they can only 20mb/s (most of them) That fast internet and downloading wouldn't be simple.They must just create better HDDs

Good topic I love idea but it is hard for me to get some memories :XD:It was my 18 birthday when We go to plant potatoes. We are doing it with horses, but this day there where with horses new two men.And they had one planting potatoes finished in other family. And as you know when is something finished people just drink alcohol. This was that story too When they came to us they were drunk. They start planting and that field and they where just walking from one side to other That field was horrible when they "finished". Every 5minutes that two men guessed and horses didn't know what to do I was laughing my *bottom* of with my sister. When they finished they again want to drink alcohol and they said they are going to plant on one field yet I don't know how they must that other field damaged,but It is good memory for me
