just watched an epic series Leta vs Kwanro (tvz) i recommend it
i also recommend epic Snow vs Shuttle (pvp).
from his very first games i immediately sensed a great potential in snow, even though he was failing miserably youtube.com/watch?v=V-ECVAY3ODg (self commentated game). i am sooo excited to be right about him and to see the rewards of my trust develop.
I liked the note circles stuff for PokerStars, but I use the Slick Dark theme and not hypersimple and such, so I wanted something similar. I saw that there was something out there to change the frame color, but I didn't think that was easy enough to see at a glance, so I took a few hours and made my own theme that looks a lot nicer imo. Anyway, just thought some of you might find it useful so here's a zip with 2 themes for it (One for Slick Dark, and one for Slick Dark with Chairs):
To install if you have no other custom themes installed, simply copy the XThemes directory to your main PokerStars directory.
If you already have a custom theme installed, you will need to take a few more steps:
First, extract the zip to a temporary directory. Next, open the XThemes directory and copy all of the contents EXCEPT for XThemes.ini to your PokerstarsXThemes directory. Then open XThemes.ini in your PokerstarsXThemes directory with a text editor and add all of the text from the XThemes.ini in this zip.

I'm on windows 7 so have set stero mix as my default working device.
Audacity records properly (when it doesn't crash) but the played back recording sounds terrible (very unclear, underwaterish).
Could someone please try recording this track (or any other) with a software and then tell me what settings you use? I've set recording settings in Aud to high (eg 96000hz, triangle, high quality, 32 float).
For those who still don't get it, i believe there won't be any need of devices for the next generations of consoles (i think), there will be a smart camera that will save your movements (if that wasn't obvious enough )
Some cool movies i wanted to post about. I'd recommend just watching the movies as 90% of trailers tend to spoil movies imo. I added them anyway tho incase you dont care and wanna check them out first ^^
Theres a bunch of movies i'd say don't watch but if there was just one i'd say don't watch The Mystery Team.
Hopefully it gives some of you a few movies to check out. Any good movies i've missed out on or should watch out for later this year? WTB more space movies!!!¬.¬
I forgot how to play poker or something. I keep losing, my red and blue lines are both tanking it. This is the worst downswing buy in wise i've had in the last 4 years... and oddly enough its at lower stakes than i've played for the past 2 or 3 years until recently. I decided I'd mix it up by throwing in normal tables instead of rush. Didn't help. I must be playing like an idiot though. None of my bluffs ever work, they always have the nuts when i look people up, and I'm obv not running well either.
In modern Sweden, Midsummer's Eve and Midsummer's Day (Midsommarafton and Midsommardagen) were formerly celebrated on 23 June and 24 June, but since 1953 the celebration has been moved to the Friday and Saturday between 19 June and 26 June. It is one of the most important holidays of the year in Sweden, and probably the most uniquely Swedish in the way it is celebrated. The main celebrations take place on the Friday, and the traditional events include raising and dancing around a huge maypole. Before the maypole is raised, greens and flowers are collected and used to cover the entire pole. Raising and dancing around a maypole (majstång or midsommarstång) is an activity that attracts families and many others. People dancing around the pole listen to traditional music and some even wear traditional folk costumes. In addition, many wear crowns made of wild springs and wildflowers on their heads. The year's first potatoes, Soused herring, Chives, Sour Cream, Beer, Snaps and the first strawberries of the season are on the menu. Drinking songs Snapsvisor are also important at this feast, and many drink heavily. When Sweden got its National day (6th june) discussions were hold about making midsummer the Swedish national day because of the strong civil celebration this day. Because Midsummer was thought to be one of the times of the year when magic was strongest, it was considered a good night to perform rituals to look into the future. Traditionally, young people pick bouquets of seven or nine different flowers and put them under their pillow in the hope of dreaming about their future spouse. In the past it was believed that herbs picked at Midsummer were highly potent, and water from springs could bring good health. Greenery placed over houses and barns were supposed to bring good fortune and health to people and livestock; this old tradition of decorating with greens continues, even though most don't take it seriously. To decorate with greens was called att maja (to may) and may be the origin of the word majstång, maja coming originally from the month May. Other researchers say the term came from German merchants who raised the maypole in June because the Swedish climate made it impossible to find the necessary greens and flowers in May, and continued to call it a maypole. Today, however, it is most commonly called a "midsommarstång" (literally midsummer's pole). In earlier times, small spires wrapped in greens were erected; this probably predates the maypole tradition, which is believed by many to have come from the continent in the Middle Ages. Others argue that some form of Midsummer pole occurred in Sweden during the pre-Christian times, and was a phallic fertility symbol, meant to impregnate the earth, but as there were no records from those times it cannot be proven, and this idea might just be a modern interpretation of the poles form. The earliest historical mention of the maypole in Sweden is from the Middle Ages. Midsummer was, however, linked to an ancient fertility festival which was adapted into St. John's Day by the church, even though it retained many pagan traditions, as the Swedes were slow to give up the old heathen customs. The connection to fertility is naturally linked to the time of year. Many young people became passionate at Midsummer, and this was accepted, probably because it resulted in more childbirths in March which was a good time for children to be born. In Denmark and Norway midsummer is referred to as the eve of Skt. Hans but it's only in Sweden that it has kept its original name. In Sweden and parts of Finland the tradition of bonfires are not part of midsummer but of the "Valborg's" evening festivities when winter leaves are burned for summer. An old Swedish traditon is that unmarried girls should before bedtime midsummer´s eve pick seven kinds of flowers and jump over seven roundpole fences and then sleep with the flowers under the pillow. During the night they will dream about the boy they will get married to.
Bought an iPhone 3GS off of craigslist. Seemed to work fine, once I got home I just did the little "wipe memory" option readily available from the system menu of the iphone, thing turned into a brick and just started rebooting infinitely. Only option was to upgrade the phone OS through a special recovery mode, phone updated to latest version of 4.0. Apparently 4.0 cannot be cracked to use on other networks like I'm trying to do, so I tried to use a tool to downgrade to an earlier OS. Apparently said tool does not work on windows 7, and now the phone is completely fucked and cant even be turned on.
I have spent the last 8 hours on this. I'm gonna try to take it to an apple store to see if they can fix it. I hear they are gracious and will often just give you a new phone. If I leave the store with a $325 paperweight, expect a glorious youtube video tomorrow of me smashing it to pieces with a hammer.
