Summary: Microsoft can only hope that it's re-invention of Windows 8, Windows 8.1 aka Blue, works because Windows 8 continues to fall behind even Vista's dismal desktop operating system market acceptance numbers. As for the mobile operating system space, Microsoft needs a miracle. The real take-away from Net Applications' May 2013 release of NetMarketShare monthly operating system statistics is that, as PC sales continue to collapse, Microsoft's Windows 8 sales are helping them to plunge to the bottom. While Microsoft apologists focus on Windows continuing to be the dominant desktop operating system, they keep missing the two elephants in the room: Windows 8 conti…

Granite's 7th birthday was on June 12th and with everything going on, Jason and I wanted his day to be really special so I baked him a Minecraft cake to go with the bday theme. He loves Minecraft. (If anybody is ever online and sees my gamertag playing Minecraft, it's not me, it's him, lol.) The white and red parts are fondant. I used chocolate icing on the bottom half and the cake itself is one layer milk chocolate and another layer of vanilla. Sorry the photo is a bit blurry, I had to take it with my tablet because my camera was charging.

Alright Gamercide, I like to write things and I finished this short story July 28th, 2011. I've always been kind of scared of my ability to write, but I want your honest opinions. Hold nothing back in your criticisms. Here it goes. Cold Blood By: Morrslieb The blood in Michael de Fourniret ran cold as the lifeblood of his enemy splashed on his hands. Geoffrey Jégado, the son of the well-known hero Gareth Jégado, had just fallen onto his blade. As the terror struck home inside of him he grew sick and became violently ill on the cobblestone, his last meal lost to the rats that plagued this city. It had been a simple matter of honor; Geoffrey had insulted a young woman…

http://rt.com/usa/us-police-harrassment-crime-308/ Let the horrible interpretations of physical contact and annoyance begin. While I'm all for people being detained or penalized for trying to harm an officer (sorry, but I am) the language for this is SO VAGUE that it's going to be so horribly abused, and people are going to wind up with felonies for no reason other than maybe swinging their arms around in the air like they just don't care.

SANDY, OR (KPTV) - A thief broke into multiple cars in the Bluff neighborhood of Sandy and stole some items rarely seen in police reports: sex toys. Sandy police said there are at least five victims, but one woman had the most embarrassing police report. "I can't believe it," said Chelsey Coutts, about her sedan trunk being broken into. "I'm still in shock." And beyond the shock of a rare theft on her quiet street Monday, Coutts said she couldn't believe she had to tell police what someone stole. "It was horrible. (The officer) kind of started laughing, but he felt bad so he asked me to describe everything in detail, and it was just horrible," Coutts said. Coutts had …

So. My internet's been acting up lately (Comcast sucks) and I did a speedtest which showed about 3Mbps down, 10Mbps up (I usually only get 4-6 up, too). Annoying when I usually get about 25-35 down/4-6 up. However, a few minutes ago I restarted the router and got THIS result. Wow lol. Now if it would stay like this that would be amazing, but über fast speeds don't matter when the connection isn't reliable. Here's hoping that things clear up.

Oh Florida. You never cease to amaze. 70 year old retired Lieutenant Colonel Ralph Wald awoke around midnight on March 10th to the sound of moaning. Upon entering the living room he discovered 32 year old Walter Conley being quite randy with his 41 year old wife, Johnna Lynn Flowers directly on the floor of the room. Walter also happened to be an ex-boyfriend of Johnna. Rather than disturbing the carnal act, Ralph slipped into his bedroom to grab his .38 revolver, and returned. Ralph shot the man once in the stomach and once in the head, killing him instantly. Now here's the thing. The prosecuters attempted to portray ol' Ralph as a jealous husband who couldn'…

Gaming gives Nori Fox's autistic son Gavin a way to grow and develop on his own. 48 million Xbox Live members. 48 million stories. Nori is a wonderful lady. I've known her (via the internet) for several years. She is also the world's greatest baker of fudge brownies. You can try and dispute that, but you'd be WRONG. I have tasted her fudge brownies and no one can match them. No one. Despite all the negative press Xbox is receiving right now, I am glad they are making videos like these. Someone needs to show the positive side of video gaming, and this for sure is a positive light being shown. Rock on, Gavin!

No, really. But a cool one. Been missing lately more than the norm, because Minon's been training for Battle of the Nations - and I've been both helping out and training alongside him. I'm not going to do it, but can't hurt to build up stamina, right? In case you're wondering what it is, it's basically REAL LIFE Chivalry. And it's pretty awesome. It's essentially a stamina battle, and once you're down on three points, you're considered "dead". It's pretty freaking brutal. There's no "safe" areas, so headshots, everything are valid just like an actual battle. You have to have high grade armour too. Minion's forging some of his own - but things like the helmet e…

I am failing out of college(yet to tell my parents). I need to go away for awhile and figure out what I am actually gonna do with myself. I can't keep pretending that I can make up all of the lost time I took from alot of people. I just wanted to say I loved every minute here, and i'm actually crying a little bit right now. Now I am gonna go let my parents know the last 2 years have been full of nothing but me wasting thousands of their dollars so I could fuck around. I love all of you. -Tyler "Sholtz" Laster

Booyah! Never seen them before and heard they put on a hell of a good show. Won tickets on the radio lol. I find out on Friday morning if I won the VIP tickets (I have a 1/6 chance). I'm pretty stoked!

Today is May Day. I've been wanting to quit for a long time now, even made it my new year resolution. I was going to earlier this year, but after the whole thing with my mom getting sick and all the stress I put it off. So I made myself a promise that I'd quit by May Day. I called the New York State smoker's quit line last month and they sent me the patches for free which is good. I quit for two years before, and I know I can do it again. Wish me luck! I'll friggin' need it!
