Super Bowl 46 Preview
[LESS INFO] 4 VIEWS | ADDED 19:08:59 02/02/12
Welcome to RideThePine.com
The sports event of the year, Super Bowl 46 featuring the New York Giants and New England Patriots , is upon us and we have your full preview...starting now.
I’ve gone back and forth on who I think will win Super Bowl 46, but before we reveal our pick lets talk about a couple of things that I hope will happen.
I hope New York Giants Quarterback Eli Manning has the most horrific game in the history of quarterbacks in the Super Bowl. His success is something I can’t describe. Like he kind of plays good when the teams needs him, but its really the defense that wins the game, but Eli throws a TD so everyone thinks its him but its really not. (His success is just as confusing as that sentence)
I hope that not one of Gisele Bundchen’s friends or family waste a prayer on New England Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady . At the end of the day Tom Brady is Tom Brady; handsome, married to one of the most beautiful women in the world, has millions of dollars and plays a game for a living.
So he might not win the big game.
If you want to throw some prayers around, how about right here. This guy has only sold two of these amazing Beer, Wing, and Football shirts ...and I was one of the buyers.
Expect Madonna to do something just completely insane. Like poop on stage. She is sick and tired of everyone talking about Lady Gaga and this is her chance to show every that she is the craziest pop singer around. As if sleeping with Dennis Rodman wasn't proof enough.
Expect NBC to be completely obsessed with Rob Gronkowski and his injured ankle but it will be New England’s other tight end, Aaron Hernandez , who will have a bigger game.
I hope the cameras catch Peyton Manning wearing a Bobby Heenan -like neck brace in a luxury suit.
I hope there will be an E-Trade baby with spiky Jersey Shore hair or spay-tanned Snookie Orange . (Yes, that is a color)
Did I already do my Madonna pooping joke...
I hope NBC hires Marisol Gonzalez to be their sideline reporter .
I hope Tiquan Underwood scores a touchdown so he can do the Kid N’ Play dance.
I hope New York Giants Head Coach Tom Coughlin 's face melts off like he just opened the Arc of the Covenant .
Ladies and Gentlemen, my pick for Super 46. New York Giants, 17. New England Patriots, 24. This episode is brought to you by 4inkjets.

Wesley Bray - "Mother's Prayer": SXSW 2012 Showcasing Artist
Surrendering all Praises, Glory, and Honor to God almighty! Through His Son, and my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ for allowing me, Wesley Bray, to be used as an instrument of Praise. I have been working in the Gospel Music Ministry for many years. At the age of 16, I developed a love for Gospel Music, after walking through the house one day, and hearing for the first time, my mother and my sisters trying to form a family quartet. At that time, the Lord put in my spirit that I could do this. Well, needless to say, my mother and sisters did not see it that way. But the seed was planted. I was given my first chance to play with a Gospel Group not long after. The Group was called the Soul Revivers. God gave me such a love for music, that within the three years that I stayed with the group, I learned to play a guitar, sing, and write songs. Before I left the Group I had become the Music Director. I didn't realize at the time, that God was preparing me for things to come. In 1985 I moved to Austin, Texas. I became co-founder of a Gospel Group called Malachi. I worked with this Music Ministry until 1999. Within that time we recorded a 45 single, an Album, a CD, a 10 song cassette tape, and a video. Our first Album was chosen as Album of the week on the nationally syndicated Bobby Jones show. Our last CD in 1998 was put in the running for a Grammy Award. Malachi disbanded in 1999. By this time, my wife, Cynthia Bray, who had sung with me in the Group Malachi, was expecting our ... From: sxsw Views: 36 0 ratings Time: 04:20 More in Entertainment

[LESS INFO] 51 VIEWS | ADDED 17:17:34 07/18/11
Corrina Gould, Chochenyo/Karkin Ohlone Good evening. [speaks in Ohlone] In Chochenyo, my ancestors' language, I said good evening, my name is Corrina. I'm Chochenyo and I'm also Karkin Ohlone. And I come here today to talk to you about why it is important for the City Council here in Vallejo to consider the easement at Glen Cove or Sogorea Te in its entirety of 15 acres. There's a quote that I came across while I was sitting here listening, and you guys have a really long meeting. And it says, "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." And that was Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King that said that. And its true. And today I stand before you because I really believe in protecting this site. Over 12 years ago, we became involved in protecting this site that is one of our ancestral burial grounds. And it has become more than just an Indian issue. It's an issue for the City of Vallejo, it's an issue for human beings. And the reason I say that I want you guys to think about the easement in the entirety of 15 acres is that while we've been doing research here, we have found that there were actually five shellmounds that were in the Glen Cove area. In 1976 when there was a report that was created before any of the homes were built there, there were actually five shellmounds that were there. Four of them were in-tact. And so, when the building was actually done in the Glen Cove area, four of those shellmounds were desecrated, or they were disturbed, or they were destroyed. The shellmound at Glen Cove is one of 425 that used to ring the Bay Area. And in the last 100 years, all of those shellmounds have been covered over or destroyed. We have been coming to the City of Vallejo and the Greater Vallejo Recreation District asking for three things to happen, or not to happen, on that land. We don't want a bathroom, we don't want a parking lot, and we don't want the hill graded. The whole entire site is a place that used to be a village site for our ancestors. Places where freshwater creeks run through, places where we could fish. And people still fish there. Amazingly, when I've been out there on the land in the last 90 days we've seen fishermen coming up with sturgeon that are as tall as me. People from all over, all over Northern California have come to visit that site. And continue to use it as its been used for the last 4,000 years. I ask that you consider signing the easement and the MOU [Memorandum of Understanding] with the Federally Recognized tribes that you are in conference with now, and that all of that land is protected. All we've been asking for, for the last 10 years is that there's no bathrooms put on our cemeteries, there's not a parking lot built. And as we've been out there for the last 90 days in a prayerful vigil, we know that we've had over 300 people there and there's no need for [additional] parking. We also know that if you grade that hill, there will be disturbance of more ancestral remains. And we have been in contact with archeology firms that are willing to take that site and look at it in a different way. We're also working with canine forensics that are willing to go in there and begin to do some research on how to find the human remains that are left there. There were many cremations that were done in this area. And because that land thats on that hillside that GVRD wants to grade has already been disturbed, there needs to be consideration that those cremations and burials are not in places where you can do auguring and you'll be able to find stuff. We're asking that those 15 acres be left in-tact as much as possible. That there's no bathrooms, there's no grading, and theres no parking lots. [Mayor Osby Davis: Alright, thank you.] mmm.

2 Sets of Hotixes
Something tells me we will see even more on the following days and maybe a tiny little bug fixing downloadable patch.
November 24
* Players should now be able to champion a capital city and earn reputation in Heroic and normal Wrath of the Lich King dungeons while wearing that city's tabard.
* Players are no longer required to discover Wrath of the Lich King dungeons before accessing them via Looking For Dungeon.
* Players should no longer be interrupted when eating or drinking in a Battleground before the battle starts.
* Many former Steamwheedle Goblins have switched over to the Gadgetzan faction. If a players happens to be "At War" with these NPCs, they will no longer attack in many areas.
* Collision has been removed from Argent Tournament banners so they can no longer block players.
* The door to the Alliance Keep in Isle of Conquest should again be closed at the beginning of the battle.
* Creatures spawned during the Hadronox encounter no longer award reputation.

Portals Removal - Explained
Portals are removed as we don't want you to have your hearth in an old city from an expansion you've outgrown just so you can have quick and instant travel anywhere you like. Those expansions had content that was far removed from things like auction houses and class trainers, and thus, contained portals. They were removed from those things because we didn't want the expansion content (which would hold the bulk of the playerbase) to in turn also remove them from the classic Azeroth world. That's no longer the case. Cataclysm has content near your faction capitals, which have auction houses and class trainers.
And for new characters leveling, who will eventually hit Shattrath and Dalaran, they now have auction houses and class trainers in place of portals.
As soon as you can fly in Azeroth this really does cease to be an issue. It will not be much different than flying from Borean Tundra to Ulduar.
I can see that since the OP is buried that enough people disagree with this being an issue, and for that I'm at least thankful that I'm not fighting a complete uphill battle in explaining it.

Fix for Meta Gems
The current design has been reconsidered, so we're planning to revert gems that now require more blue than red gems back to their original requirements. Such a change can't be accomplished via a hotfix though, so we'll have to wait to revert these in a future patch.

Patch 4.0.3a and more
[LESS INFO] 12 VIEWS | ADDED 21:23:18 11/23/10
UPDATE: Title fixed. Sorry for the confusion. Grrr...
I didn't want to post anything about the new patch until I was absolutely sure Blizzard will release it this week. Now is time to speak about it since they already start "breaking" the US live realms.
This is the patch responsible for breaking the whole Azeroth. After this goes live the world wont be the same again. This is NOT Cataclysm yet. Most of the Cataclysm features are going to be added on December 7, when the new expansion will be launched.
A while ago a player compiled the features of this patch and Cataclysm and grouped them so we can know what we can do in 4.0.3a and what we can no until Cataclysm.
If somehow you have misses our Cataclysm reviews and our Cataclysm Exploration episodes you can still find them over here and read them while you download the patch and wait for your realm to go online.
Plus, do not forget to check out the Blizzard store . If you want to make a game present or you miss any wow expansion this is the moment to buy them: WoW $5, BC $5, WotLK $10... until Nov 30th.
What IS in:
* Portals in Dalaran Removed (you have trainers instead)
* New race-class combinations (except worgen/goblin)
* Race Changing to new class combinations (check the wowhead table for them)
* New Gnome/Troll starting areas
* Changes to existing zones (the world that you know it will change forever)
* New cata load screens, cinematic, music and login screen
* City Quartermasters, with rep tabards for championing
* Class balancing and bug fixes
* Druids, paladins, priests, and shaman will have their talent trees reset
* Experience required to gain levels 71 through 80 is being reduced by 20%
* New tamable hunter pets (monkey, fox, dog, and beetle) as well as new skins for existing pet classes. (check more on wow-petopia )
* A steam powered auctioneer, similar to the engineering only one in the Like Clockwork store, has been added next to the justice point vendors in Dalaran. They are now usable by all non-engineers.
* Some mounts other items are being removed (check this for details) (thanks WarcraftPets )
What IS NOT in this patch:
* Creating worgen/goblin characters
* Worgen/Goblin start zones
* Archeology profession
* Professions past 450 (Illustrious Grand Master)
* Guild leveling
* Guild achievements
* Eastern Kingdoms/Kalimdor flight skill

Official 4.0.3a Patch Notes
In the frigid wastes of Northrend, the final battle against the merciless Lich King ended in victory for Azeroth's defenders. Upon returning home, veterans of the unforgiving conflict against the Scourge were showered with praise for their valiant sacrifices, while the honorable dead were mourned. Yet as hope flared anew in the wake of the Lich King's fall, Azeroth's native elemental spirits grew confused and erratic, setting off a series of deadly natural disasters. Horde and Alliance leaders scrambled for clues about the troubling state of the world, but nothing could have prepared them for what was to come.
Without warning, the corrupted Dragon Aspect, Deathwing, erupted from the stone heart of Deepholm, the domain of earth within the Elemental Plane. Jagged fissures were torn across the earth, and monstrous waves pummeled coastal regions. From Thousand Needles to the Blasted Lands, the surface of Azeroth was reforged through violent upheavals. Now, the Horde and the Alliance must defend their homes against Deathwing and his minions, burdened by the unsettling fact that the world as they know it has changed…forever.
General
* Azeroth Shattered
* Deathwing's return has had an immeasurable impact throughout the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor. Players will notice drastically altered terrain, thousands of new quests from levels 1-60, and updated level ranges for some zones to improve the questing flow.
* New Race/Class Combinations
* In the wake of a world on the brink of destruction, members of the Horde and Alliance have taken to new cultures and studies, mastering crafts previously foreign to them. Many existing playable races now have new class combinations. Check the official World of Warcraft: Cataclysm website for a breakdown of the new combinations.
* The World of Warcraft: Cataclysm cinematic trailer and login screen have been added to the game.
* Experience required to gain levels 71 through 80 has been reduced by 20%, which increases leveling rate by 25%.
* Many quests in zones on Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor have been removed from the game to make way for new adventures. These quests have been automatically removed from players' Quest Logs.
Classes: General
* Due to several talent revisions for select classes, druids, paladins, priests, and shaman have had their talent trees reset.
* The damage and healing done by players from levels 1-79 has been retuned, with the base points of almost all spells and abilities reduced. This was done to bring combat times at low levels to a more reasonable length. For most abilities that deal weapon damage, the weapon damage percent now rises per level until level 80, and starts at a lower percent.
* Healing Rain, Efflorescence, Holy Radiance, Holy Word: Sanctuary now have a diminished effect when healing more than 6 players at once.
* Mortal Strike, Furious Attacks, Wound Poison, Widow Venom, Permafrost, Improved Mind Blast, Monstrous Bite, and Legion Strike now reduce healing by 10%, down from 25%.

Death Knight
* Death Pact now heals for 25% of maximum health, down from 40%.

* Swift Rejuvenation is now a 1-point talent, down from 2. The global cooldown reduction this talent provides to Rejuvenation remains 0.5 seconds.
* Symbiosis: heal-over-time spells (Rejuvenation, Regrowth, Lifebloom) can no longer benefit from this Mastery merely by refreshing themselves. A different heal-over-time spell must be present.

READ: John 10:22-42
THINK: Who are you listening to? There are a lot of voices in the world vying for your attention, bombarding you with a myriad of messages aimed at influencing you in one way or another. Some are worthwhile; many are not. Some you choose to listen to, and some you can%rsquot seem to ignore. It can be difficult to hear what%rsquos really important through all of the noise. As you sift through the chatter, consider whether what you hear builds you up, benefits you spiritually and brings you or anyone else closer to God. Above all, does it help you to discern God%rsquos voice, or does it distract you from hearing Him. Perhaps it%rsquos time to tune out some noise so you can tune in to God.
RESPOND: What does Jesus mean in saying, %ldquoMy sheep listen to my voice%rdquo? (See 10:27 note.) How do people truly %ldquohear%rdquo and listen to Jesus? What do the words %ldquolisten%rdquo and %ldquofollow%rdquo imply (v. 27)? What comfort and encouragement can you take from verses 28-29? (See 10:28 note.) In reality, what is the only thing that can remove you from the life and purpose God intends for you? What was the people%rsquos main issue and accusation against Jesus (cf. vv 30-33, 36)? What do Jesus%rsquo claims in this passage mean to you personally? What does it mean that the Law referred to people as %ldquogods%rdquo? (See 10:34 note.) In what way does this relate to how people should view Jesus and how they should (or should not) view themselves?
PRAY: Ask Jesus to help you always listen and discern His voice and to follow His lead. Thank Him for giving you eternal life and for the fact that no one and nothing%mdashoutside of your own choice%mdashcan take you away from Him.
ACT: Once again, as you may have practiced a few days ago, go through the day making a conscious effort to listen for God%rsquos direction in all you do. (Listening to God%rsquos side of the communication is a vital prayer discipline.) This does not mean that you have to stop for a length of time before every decision. But make choices and do things based on a desire to honor God and reflect His character. Remember, don%rsquot just aim to hear but also to follow God%rsquos direction, obeying what you sense He%rsquos saying to you.

READ: John 8:48-59
FIREuSTARTER
THINK: What is God like? It seems like a lot of people would like to know. But can humans really understand what God is like? People through the centuries have struggled with that question? But the fact is, God has not made it difficult to get a good glimpse of what He%rsquos like and even to relate to Him on a personal level. As you may have considered in your study over the last few days, God has revealed himself clearly through the Person of Jesus Christ, His Son. Jesus is God in the flesh, who came to earth in human form to endure our trials, to fulfill God%rsquos plans, and ultimately to provide the way for us to have an eternal relationship with Him. If you want to know what God is like, look to Jesus through God%rsquos Word and prayer, surrender yourself to His purposes and follow Him.
RESPOND: What does Jesus mean when He says that %ldquoif anyone keeps my word he will never see death%rdquo? (See 10:28 note.) How can you %ldquokeep%rdquo God%rsquos Word? How does God%rsquos Word provide life? What is the significance of Je- sus%rsquo statement that %ldquobefore Abraham was born, I am%rdquo? (See 8:58 note.) What does this statement indicate about the nature and character of Jesus? What other characteristics and attributes does Jesus possess as God? In what ways do these traits affect you? How do they provide comfort? How do they inspire faith? How do they help you stay devoted to Jesus?
PRAY: Thank Jesus for His life-giving Word and ask Him to give you insight so you can understand and obey His Word. Praise Him as the all-powerful and eternal Son of God.
ACT: Take some extra time now and throughout the day to worship God for His many matchless character traits. Read the article on The Attributes of God, p. 786, and praise Him for the specific traits mentioned. As you go through the day, notice the evidence of His attributes, such as His power and creativity displayed in creation and His patience when you don%rsquot respond as you should right away. Make this an ongoing practice.
