			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hey guys, I'm at my first base and i'm getting ready to leave. I graduated the school and I've recieved my GED. I'm on my way to Fort Benning next. I miss getting on regularly. I'm on their computer and the damn thing won't let me check my facebook or my email. it kind of pisses me off. Hell, I can't even check my military email. It's really annoying. I've looked foreward to this for the past few weeks. To be able to get on the internet, and I can't get on my email and facebook. Not getting on myspace doesn't bother me, but I want to be able to update people on how I'm doing. I'm sure you guys know how I feel. Well, any ways. I miss haveing conversations with you guys. I start basic tomorrow. It'll be hard, but I'm ready for it. I don't picture it being too hard for me. I can officially call myself an American Soldier. Well, i gotta go, i'll try and hit you guys up sometime soon.<br />
<br />
<br />
Peace<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I have been playing both the single-player story and multi-player game modes and I have to admit; it blows away Modern Warfare 2. I love being able to take down a building and the achievements are easy to get. Also, teamwork is emphasized on this game where Modern Warefare 2 doesn't. The AI actually kills enemies this time (not like the first). Graphics are great and so is the customizing of the weapon loadouts you have for multi-player. I just can't say enough about this game. Oh, I did forget this: the killswitch for cheating is still there.:cool:</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Been reading today and found that the Sony PS3 has decided to brick itself like it was y2k. They have also been having trophy issues and so forth. Also, the bug screws up their hard drive data and pretty much renders the PS3 usless. I say this is a big nail in the coffin for Playstation. What is your take on it since I think many PS3 owners will finally come over to the 360 side of gaming.:cool:</div>

I'll be there for the night and in the morning I get up at 5 am and I have to go to MEPS. When I finish with MEPS I get sent on my way to South Carolina. I'm looking foreward to it.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I just bought AvP this morning and have been playing both the single and multi-player parts of the game. I would recommend this game to anyone who has played the original two that came out in the late '90s and newcommers to the series. This (the original 2)was a game that started me on FPS.<br />
<br />
Game Informer said the sensor &quot;beeped too much&quot;. If you ever saw an Aliens movie; you would disagree with them on that because as something gets closer to your position, it lets you know.<br />
<br />
I do think the graphics are excellent and that you can unlock new skins for each species (human, alien, and predator) in multi-player. I also like the fact that the marine and predator have their extra weapons strewn about in the level and you have to pick them up to get them. <br />
<br />
I would rate this game about a 9.97 on a 10 scale. The only thing missing is being able to be an alien queen.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I know I discussed this before on people cheating in the COD series, but I became shocked when people were glitching and cheating in the game. I found that in mostly every game I have been in lately, someone is trying to screw everyone by glitches, modded controllers to fire faster than the guns should, or cheat on health. :mad:<br />
<br />
This was the final straw that broke the camel's back. I sold my copy of the game for BF: Bad Company. I do know that if someone in Bad Company tries to get an edge in that one, the game does an auto-kill on you. I just wish COD would be that way.<br />
<br />
I do hope someone from Infinity Ward or Activision sees this and understands my frustration (look at the global ranks and you tell me how someone got to prestige 10 in 3 sec).</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I have ten days left before I leave for the army. I'm kind of excited, but kind of nervous. I'm sure it will be lots of fun and exciting. This is going to be a major experience. I can't wait, but I will miss XLN. I might be off line for a good few months, so I will miss you all. It really sucks, not having constant access to XLN. You guys are my family, my virtual blood. LOL. I think my next Tattoo will be an XLN tattoo. I'll miss you guys. I'll hopefully post one more blog before I leave. Catch you all later.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I have gotten BioShock 2 today and have been playing both multi and single player modes and I do think they are pretty darn good. The multi-player is like Modern warfare 2 but with a Bioshock twist while the maps show Rapture in pre-civil war grandeur. I do like the expanded tonic part and plasmid numbers. Playing as a Big Daddy is also as fun as I thought it would be (I got the drill dash attack and that kicks butt). You can also take pics of your fallen foe in multi-player to get damage bonuses. I do hope they create more skins for the multi-player though.<br />
<br />
All in all, BioShock 2 met my expectations ad went beyond.:cool:</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>...or the first time i was blocked, i should say.  i won't say who it was, but i suppose if you search @mistahclutch on twitter you could find out for yourself. <br />
<br />
basically, someone RT someone else posting about how the NFL won't let Janet Jackson perform at the super bowl, but they'll let Pete Townsend perform and he's a &quot;known sex offender&quot;.<br />
<br />
i was taken aback by this, i hadn't known pete townsend was a sex offender.  i was distraught!  so, of course i quickly googled &quot;pete townsend sex offender&quot; and sure enough, he had a <a href="http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,450183,00.html" target="_blank">case back in 2003</a>. i came upon <a href="http://music-mix.ew.com/2010/01/28/who-pete-townshend-super-bowl-sex-offender/" target="_blank">this article</a> which pretty much show's how ridiculous the charges were and how crazy some watchdog groups operate. however this particular twitter user felt the same way and did not want to hear my opinions. <br />
<br />
interestingly enough, this person had the audacity to assume &quot;you probably want to burn Michael Vick&quot;.  like, what did that have to do with anything?  is it because pete townsend and i are both white?  clearly we are out rid the planet of imperfect white people!  RIGHT!<br />
<br />
i even said, i thought it was absurd that vick had to do more time than 2 other NFL players that only served a few months for killing HUMANS while driving drunk. <br />
<br />
but i'm pretty sure this person just hated me from jump street.  felt like sharing this with you all.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I downloaded the AvP MP Demo today and found it to be exactly what I remember it was like when I had the 2 original ones for PC. The marines have the sensor that beeps faster and faster when a life form is getting close. Also, you can desroy the lights to get Aliens and Marines into darkness and take them out cloaked (cloaking is the Predator, of course). I think this game will be a runaway hit with the fans of the first two and hopefully newbies to the series will like it, too. :D</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I have been closely keeping an eye on BioShock 2 since 2K Marin (a spin-off of the olks who made BioShock). Also, the guys who made Unreal Tournament awesome for multi-player is helping with the multi-player part of the game. The game comes out Feb. 9th and I hope to see everyone on here get it since it sounds and looks really good. <br />
<br />
I have also been hearing lots about AVP, too. I am planning on getting it and also Halo: Reach since the new Halo tells how most of the Spartan soldiers died and Master Chief is the only one left. Looking forward to all of those titles.</div>

I had my ipod in my jacket pocket, a jacket made for rainy/snowy weather, and water made it's way through the fabric and some how over moisturized my iTouch screen!<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>So I've actually done my looking into of careers and what I need for the ARMY.<br />
Now, before you say &quot;don't do it&quot;<br />
Hear me out<br />
Now... I've got a big problem in the future...<br />
I live with my parents, who were trying to kick me out for being jobless.<br />
Well, they want to leave and retire by the end of this year or next, and live in another state ALONE.<br />
So that would leave me homeless still.<br />
Of course I can not stay with friends, and any local family would just cause problems for them.<br />
So I either shape up and do this, or continue looking for a sh*tty job where stores are closing down every month.<br />
Also, I just talked with my best friend for 10 years, and best man at my wedding, and he's willing to drop the 360 controller and join with me.<br />
You have no idea how happy that makes me.<br />
This guy has been with me through so many sh*t storms in middle school and high school...NO SEXUAL JOKES PERVS!<br />
I believe in God, but I always keep these things to myself, but...<br />
I am very thankful I met this kid when I moved into this house.<br />
And he's my first real best friend. I've never had friends before I moved here.<br />
And out of no where, I meet this guy and we get along like that.<br />
So having him with me... I know I can get through anything<br />
Especially with my fiance, and soon to be wife, right there waiting for me and supporting me all the way.<br />
<br />
So, of course, before they decide to have me start signing papers and what not,<br />
I am going to get in there face and have them promise me that they will not feed me bullsh*t and lie to me and tell me I'll get this or that when I won't or it's off!<br />
I really want to do this, and if they wont believe me, then I'll tell them straight in the eye out loud so EVERY military recruiting station can hear me: &quot;AMERICA CAN GO F**K IT'S SELF AND BURN UNDER NUCLEAR RADIATION AND KISS MY ASS!&quot;</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Infinity Ward released an update/patch for the game before Christmas. They fixed the 1887 akimbo glitch, the game search going into a private match, and fixed the Javelin exploding death glitch. I think Infinity Ward has done a good job with this update because I was getting ticked at the people who used the glitches to gain an upper hand in battles. I hope you like this info and enjoy the game much more.<br />

See you all on xbox live:)</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Everyone, I have returned to my blogging since the Holidays have ended. And I have few good things to say.<br />
<br />
First is that I recently entered a COD MW2 tourney at a local game shop. I lost but it was fun. Met some pretty darn good MW2 gamers in the process.<br />
<br />
Second, I got me a few games over Christmas with my birthday and Christmas money (Wolfenstein, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe, Prey, Star Wars: The force Unleashed, Mass Effect, BioShock). I also pre-ordered Mass Effect 2 and BioShock2 for when they release. I do have to say that Mass Effect 2 looks pretty good for a 3rd person view RPG. BioShock 2 will have multiplayer and the multi-player will be done by the famous guys who made Unreal Tournament great. Can't wait for those 2 games.<br />
<br />
Now for some game comments: Wolfenstein is good, but I got tired of it fast. Story was great but not the multi-player.  I am happy I was able to pick up both Mortal Kombat games because Midway is no more and both are pretty good fighter games (you can't go wrong with Mortal Kombat, right?) I also like the way the story for The Force Unleashed was made making it tie in with the 3rd and 4th star wars movies. <br />
<br />
I also started prestige mode in MW2 recently and upped my accuracy to 14.95% (it is way better than my cousin or a few other friends.) I just hope I can do well enough in MW2 to be a very tough competitor.<br />
<br />
Well, I am happy to be back on here blogging to everyone and I hope 2010 is a good one for everyone of you.:D</div>

<br />
yes that one ... sweet isnt it .? lol well soon you'll be able to switch from screen to screen or keep different windows open, watching a football match, keeping tabs on Facebook - all while playing your favourite video game - on a TV.<br />
<br />
Think of a Sony Bravia telly with in-built PS3 and Blu-ray. Or a Wii TV with Nintendo action games and motion sensor strip built in to the telly. Microsoft are taking it even further with Project Natal, which will be totally gesture-driven, no remote needed. A lot of the early all-in-ones will be driven by Windows 7's touchscreen software, like MSI's hands-on Wind PC, which allows you to control all your entertainment with a finger tip on screen. <br />
<br />
Impressed? well i was and im going to start saving because no doubt these beauties will be very expensive indeed :D</font></font></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><font face="Comic Sans MS"><font size="4">I love police cars and I think most people do too. Police cars have come on leaps and bounds since the days of &quot;it must be Ford/Vauxhall/Rover&quot; and &quot;it must be made in the UK.&quot;<br />
<br />
In recent years police forces around the country have twigged that premium models like BMWs and Audis can actually save them money in the long run - because of improved re-sale values - and the same goes for colours.<br />
<br />
So out goes unloved white and in comes natty silver, in the case of London's Met for example. So they now look better, and have some choice machines including the likes of the BMW X5, Subaru Impreza, and Mitsubishi EVO Xs.  Here are a few examples:<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><font face="Comic Sans MS"><font size="4">Christmas and holiday gift giving can be stressful if you aren't sure what to buy. If you have a teenage girl on your list, relax, with so many things that are in at a variety of prices, gift giving, at least for this group, should be a breeze.<br />
<br />
First, know who you're buying for, what are they involved in, are they into sports, music and fashion? Some girls love all the name brand clothes, handbags and jewelry while others are into music, sporting apparel, games and books. Just about every teen is into technology and electronic gifts so you can't go wrong there.<br />
<br />
Below is a sample of cool gift ideas broken down into different categories, some with an average price.<br />
<br />
<b>Technology and electronic gifts.</b><br />
<br />
IPods, try the touch IPods, these are great and easy to use.<br />
<br />
Try giving an ITunes gift card so she can download music and games. Cards can be purchased to fit any budget.<br />
<br />
One of the bases to plug in the IPod is a great gift. Try the Lady-Plug. It's about $99.00 and available at Target.<br />
<br />
Vado pocket video camera in pink. Try the ultra thin, compact color video camera that holds hours of footage and plugs in to the computer for easy up loading. It's about $100.00 and available at <a href="http://www.us.creative.com" target="_blank">www.us.creative.com</a>.<br />
<br />
Games for WII or computer games if she's into that.<br />
<br />
<b>Fashion gifts:</b><br />
<br />
Try a subscription to one of the fashion magazines like Teen Vogue, Seveteen, or Cosmo girl to name a few.<br />
<br />
Ugg boots. Even if she has a pair or two, most girls want them in several colors and heights.<br />
<br />
Juicy couture. Jewelry, key chains, purses, wallets and clothes are always hot and in fashion.<br />
<br />
Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch are popular stores. Just make sure whatever you buy is returnable.<br />
<br />
Lucky and True Religion are also very popular brands for jeans.<br />
<br />
<b>Purses and wallets.</b><br />
<br />
These can be a bit on the pricey side, especially if you are getting one of the designer brands that the girls all want. Luckily most girls want small purses and wallets so they are a little less then the full size ones.<br />
<br />
Popular brands are Juicy Couture, Coach and Louis Vuitton.<br />
<br />
<b>Perfume.</b><br />
<br />
Moon Sparkle by Escada, is their newest scent for fall/winter 2009 and Burberry Beat are still popular. Don't forget layering the perfume and giving bath wash, body lotion too. Perfume gift sets are great gifts, you get a few items in one purchase and often comes with a gift.<br />
<b><br />
Makeup.</b><br />
<br />
Mac cosmetics and Urban Decay or hip and trendy and Bare essentials are popular too.<br />
<br />
Make up brushes and sets of brushes</font></font></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Breaking the 700 post mark this week.<br />
<br />
Update in my recent gaming:<br />
<br />
GH3: Finishing up all the career modes and playing a lot of online matches for the 500 ranked wins. That's going to be a LONG achievement. I hope all the wins I had from playing back when this was released helps alot.<br />
<br />
Halo 3: Playing old games I know, running through Legendary with the ladyfriend. She needs the achievements, that's 250 points for Legendary and the stacked Heroic achievements though!<br />
<br />
Oblivion: I wasn't joking about old games. Almost done with the campaign. Then the side missions, may be one of the easiest 1000 point games I've played (aside from Avatar, durh).<br />
<br />
Forza 3: Been getting some dust, needs to be played!<br />
<br />
Brutal Legend: Missing it, I have the urge to play though!</div>

This is the face of a young sweet and innocent Liverpool...</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><font face="Comic Sans MS"><font size="4"><img src="http://news.sky.com/sky-news/content/StaticFile/jpg/2009/Nov/Week4/15479930.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />
<br />
This is the face of a young sweet and innocent Liverpool boy, John-Paul Massey, this happy go lucky lad was 4 years old and was about to enjoy the gifts and everything else his family had planned for him for the christmas period. I say was because sadly yesterday at 10am something horrific happened to this poor little boy that cost him his life, it put his grandmother into hospital and his 13 year old brother is also in hospital getting treated for shock.<br />
<br />
This little boy was mauled by his uncles pitbull terrier, and his grandmother tryed so badly to help him but got so injured in the attack she couldnt do anymore, it wasnt until the police arrived and  shots were fired and the dog was killed that they saw what must have been the most horrific thing ever. <br />
<br />
Now apparently according to <a href="http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/UK-News/Police-To-Learn-If-Dog-That-Killed-John-Paul-Massey-In-Liverpool-Was-Banned-Under-Dangerous-Dog-Act/Article/200912115480667?lpos=UK_News_First_Home_Article_Teaser_Region_5&amp;lid=ARTICLE_15480667_Police_To_Learn_If_Dog_That_Killed_John-Paul_Massey_In_Liverpool_Was_Banned_Under_Dangerous_Dog_Act" target="_blank">SKY NEWS</a> they are saying that the police were called by a neighbour 9 months ago regarding this pitbull and the family because they were breeding them, now i know alot of people are reading this and are thinking its a pitbull .... well outside of the UK they are probably deemed as an ok day but here in the UK they are actually BANNED....unless of course you have a license and the dog is muzzled whenever it is outside of its home premises.<br />
<br />
So why did this terrible thing happen? alot of people say its the breed and i have to disagree pitbulls can be just as loving and soft as your next dog, i think personally its like a person its the way that they are reared ......no dog has it in them to attack naturally .... unless of course its an inbred dog or it has been trained to do so. I own a staffordshire bull terrier and now they have terrible press too but i can say that because mine has been reared in  a family home he is soft .... and id trust him with my life .... but you see so many young kids these days where i live and it seems the bigger the dog the harder you are .... they just dont realize the dangers of what there dog can do, to the kids of the streets where i live in  liverpool the dog is an accessory, a loaded gun, TROUBLE. <br />
<br />
And to be honest it knocks my stomach to the ground, when i was 16 i did work experience with K9 police dogs and i absolutely loved it and it learnt me alot about dogs and the way that they are so easily trained to kill ...... so these kids know this and they know that a 10-15 stone pitbull is going to A) scare anyone or B) kill anyone .... and i think its wrong ......<br />
<br />
not only do i think its wrong that these kids should be able to own such powerful dogs, i also think its wrong that these poor animals have to be brought up and raised then killed because it was doing as it was trained to do ..... <br />
<br />
This ncident happened 20 minutes from where i live and my deepest sympathy goes out to this little boys mother and all his family, such a terrible thing to happen at a time when you wher meant to be so happy.... R.I.P little John Paul xx<br />
<br />
Please feel free to leave a comment .....<br />

<br />
BeatKitchen, November 24 2009. Chicago IL.<br />
Opening Bands: Holy Grail, Saviours (Saviours was better with the Holy Grail singer and Holy Grail sucked even with their singer. Ha!)<br />
<br />
3 Inches of Blood rocked it out. Played a few new songs from their newest album. The singer is hilarious, he likes messing with the drummer when he's not singing. Choking his crash and whatnot and generally fing with him.<br />
<br />
Some retard kids were &quot;hardcoring&quot; in the crowd and it was pissing lots of people off. Then a few of them thought it'd be cool to stage dive (mind you, this venue is like a match box) and once unplugged the lead. Smart. Retard kids are retarded.</div>
