How bad are the framerate issues in 2K10? For whatever reason, framerate issues in a basketball game really bother me. I am trying to decide whether to open the 2K10 I bought or exchange it for Live.

If he is convicted, he will almost certainly serve some time. It may be only a few months. (As a white collar criminal defense lawyer, I have dealt with a number of federal perjury/obstruction trials.)

There is a place in New York City near St. Marks Place that has broken the street date, and been selling it since earlier this week. Two of the doormen in my apartment both have it and have been playing it -- they have been speaking very highly of it in terms of weapons and vehicles.

If you use Perian as your video codecs for the Mac, you can simply look in the activity section of your safari browser when you are watching a youtube or any flash video and download it to your computer by copying the link (it will be the largest of the listings in "activity"). Then you can simply p...

It actually reminds me very much of the Dark Tower. I said to my wife last night that I think it will likely end in very much the same way as the Dark Tower ended.

I work across from the Sony Store in NYC. There have been people literally camped out since Tuesday to buy PS3s.

Very strange. I could see the smoke from my office windows. Ironically, he was interviewed last month about his flying and said that his plane had a parachute which could bring it down gently in an emergency.

I think that the player models at the free throw line are a little weird. Shaq looked kind of strange. Still, the game looks and plays great.

Players have to clear waivers before they can be traded after July 31, which means other teams can block them.

I think there are 2 models right now for Vaios with Core Duos. The FE series which is a 15 incher. My wife just got one. And the SZ which is a 13 incher that is really slick.

I initially thought Vic was in on it with Shane as Vic and Ronnie went to wait for Lem at one location, where Vic knew he wouldn't come, and Shane went to where Lem actually was. That way, the cop killing aspect was contained between Shane and Vic. But I am not so sure after seeing Vic's reaction at...

The city is racially split, has real poverty problems, and many of the poorest live in housing projects that ...
