Metal Gear Solid Rising Is Releasing

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 06:03 PM PDT


Right off the bat, the art style has completely changed. The cleaner look will immediately catch your attention as it doesn't feel quite like Metal Gear Solid 4, but as the action begins, you'll soon be planted back on familiar ground.

Since Microsoft didn't make mention of Metal Gear Solid: Rising being exclusive to its console, we had a pretty good indication. Even better is the Gamespress information for the newest, Raiden-starring Metal Gear Solid, which is listed for release on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. The release date is still TBA.

A year has gone by with virtually no news of Metal Gear Solid: Rising. Now as E3 kicks off, the first gameplay video ever has surfaced. We've got it for you, and first impressions on everything it tells about the new game, and the whole Metal Gear series.

Metal Gear Solid: Rising​ is an upcoming action video game in the Metal Gear series by Kojima Productions. The game was announced at the Microsoft E3 2009 press conference, and is in development for PlayStation 3, Microsoft Windows, and Xbox 360. The series' former tagline, "Tactical Espionage Action", has been replaced by "Lightning Bolt Action", to fit the new protagonist, Raiden; the word raiden is Japanese for "thunder and lightning".



Hold steady, the days of wishing to play as the sword wielding Gray Fox, the cyborg ninja from MGS1, or as Raiden as he took out a street filled with Geckos are almost here.

Oklahoma City Flooding Getting Worse By Worse

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:57 PM PDT


Officials in Chandler said it got so bad there on Thursday that most of Tillman Park was under water. The football fieldhouse flooded, and high water nearly seeped into homes along Fourth and Fifth streets, officials said.

"I'm sick and tired of it. We're about to mildew down here," said Chandler resident Virginia Babcock.

The boat carrying the rescuers sank just as it reached the teen along a North Canadian River tributary that had toppled its banks. A second boat was able to safely recover the girl, the firefighters and the boat owner who lent his craft to the effort, which included more than 50 rescues of residents and stranded motorists.

From 4:15 a.m to 12:30 p.m., the Oklahoma City North Mesonet Station received 10.07 inches of rain. The recording device is located on The Oklahoman property near Britton Road and Broadway Extension.

Fire crews went door to door in the northwest neighborhood of Ski Island, asking residents whose homes back up to Spring Creek to voluntarily evacuate while a nearby dam is evaluated. Rising water was creeping toward the top of the dam by late morning, Oklahoma City spokeswoman Kristy Yager said.

Douglas Urbanski Says Hollywood People Are Double Standard

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:52 PM PDT


Like a determined salmon whirling upstream against the prevailing river, Urbanski, 47, brings a decidedly spiritual dimension to a notably secular business. Any daily communicant who treads the trenches of crass commercialism must be on good terms with paradox. His movie projects often explore the darker, seamier side of life, while showcasing the human capacity for hope.

Douglas Urbanski (born 17 February 1957 in Somerville, New Jersey) is an American theatre impresario, raconteur and film producer. He is a partner with actor Gary Oldman in the production company SE8 GROUP and he also runs a talent management firm, DMG. When he is not producing motion pictures, the self described "Conservative, Capitalist, Catholic" is has been an active guest host on national radio programs filling in for Laura Ingraham, Michael Savage, Fred Thompson, Tammy Bruce, Jerry Doyle, Rusty Humphries, Dennis Miller, Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh. He is married to television producer Diane Wilk (The Nanny).

"There's a double standard of the elite Hollywood people. If something like this BP disaster had happened under the watchful eye of George Bush or even John McCain, the celebrities would be up in arms. Yet I would trust the solutions to solving this type of issue to those two men more than the others." -Douglas Urbanski

In subverting expectations, Doug Urbanski is accidentally linked to another Hollywood figure who made a career out of going against the grain. One July evening in 1946, at a private meeting in the living room of Olivi.

Italy Vs Paraguay World Cup Live Pre Match Talk

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:45 PM PDT


Italy go into the match in Cape Town with a number of injury concerns and if they lose Pirlo and De Rossi they may have some serious issues in the midfield. Opting to play one up front, Alberto Gilardino, could prove problematic given the oppositions stubborn back line who managed to keep clean sheets against Brazil and Argentina in qualifying.

"Whenever a World Cup comes around everyone wants to get in their say," said coach Marcello Lippi, who guided Italy in 2006. "Last time, everyone joined in as we moved along, but this time we're not going to allow anyone to jump on the bandwagon."

For Paraguay it's an early chance to stake a claim as one of the tournament's darkhorses, the whispers of which already surround them, and to take advantage of any Italian slow start, or age, or lack of form, and prove Group F is anything but "Italy and the others". They'll also have one eye to a striker at home, Salvador Cabanas, shot in a Mexico City bar a few months back and unable to play, and Lucas Barrios, the surprise recipient of a Paraguayan passport and new leader of their strike force with three goals in three caps.

Paraguay jumped to a surprising lead in the 39th minute after Victor Caceres Antolin Alcaraz rose over the Italian midfielder Daniele De Rossi to meet a free-kick service from Aureliano Torres and knock it with his head into the bottom right corner of the goal.

The New Xbox 360 Slim With Games SKU Natal Kinect Releasing Date

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:39 PM PDT


We're hearing that Microsoft's motion-sensing Project Natal add-on for the Xbox 360 will be officially renamed Kinect. While it's possible that the news won't hit until tomorrow, our money is on the name popping up tonight during Microsoft's big show.

"It's not clear what sort of upgrades we might see, but some have suggested it will be a slight upgrade of the current Xbox 360 technology. Current Xbox 360 games would be playable on it, but future games would be able to take advantage of the added muscle."

Now, according to Xbox expert Dean Takahashi at Venture Beat, Jasper-infused Xboxes are finally being spotted out there in the wilds of the marketplace. And presumably, fans of the platform are singing hosannas at the prospect that maybe, finally, some of their brethren might be able to boot up Gears of War without fear of doom.

And this is important since, with Microsoft's recent price reductions for the Xbox the "Arcade" version of the console is now available for $199 it is likely that there will be large numbers of new buyers, especially this holiday season. Unless, that is, the economic situation holds buyers back.

Bob Etheridge Congress Man Get Out Of Control

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:37 PM PDT


Footage of members of Congress acting like people do occasionally oddly, and often unpleasantly seems to not get the big bursts of attention they maybe once did. Videos of people getting hit in the privates by stepping on rakes was entertainment for a while. Bob Saget made a nice living off of it.

Bobby Ray "Bob" Etheridge (born August 7, 1941) is a member of the United States House of Representatives from North Carolina, representing that state's 2nd congressional district. Etheridge, a Democrat was first elected to the House in 1996.



Congressman, to quote the movie Backdraft, "You see that flash of light in the corner of your eye? That's your career dissipation light. It just went into high gear."

Barbara Bush Diagnosed A Recurrence Of he Thyroid Condition

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 05:28 PM PDT


Barbara Bush's comments come just weeks after her mother, former First Lady Laura Bush, professed views that departed sharply from the Republican majority opinion. During a Fox News interview, Laura Bush was asked to comment on Elena Kagan's nomination to the Supreme Court.

Doctors "narrowed it down" late Tuesday and ultimately diagnosed a recurrence of the thyroid condition, which first struck Bush 20 years ago and for which she has continued medication. Heartbeat irregularities caused by the disease can lead to cardiac arrest in older patients in some situations.

Barbara Pierce Bush (born June 8, 1925) is the wife of the 41st President of the United States George H. W. Bush, and served as First Lady of the United States from 1989 to 1993. She is the mother of the 43rd President George W. Bush and 43rd Governor of Florida Jeb Bush. Previously she had served as Second Lady of the United States from 1981 to 1989.

There are no big symptoms, no pain, no emergency," said spokesman Jim McGrath. "Tests are ongoing today, and we hope to have her out (Monday) or Tuesday latest."

Vince Young Fight in Dallas Club His Attack Video Is Released

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 04:58 PM PDT


Miller said more accusations against UT ensued, "Which prompted, in this case, Mr. Young to come back into the room where he had just about exited; became involved in an incident, and during the course of this incident, the assault occurred."

Vince Young has found his way directly to the top of the news headlines. Vince Young has been issued a Class C assault citation in Dallas from a fight he was in at a Dallas night club last night (Sunday, June 14th). According to local Dallas news sites, Vince Young was the "prime suspect" in a fight that left the other guy with "bodily injuries".

The incident is alleged to have happened Sunday morning at a Dallas strip club early after a man at the club dissed the University of Texas, Vince Young's school.

For the Tennessee Titans this may be the information they need to determine his future with the team. Young has only two years left on his rookie contract, and this was going to be the all-or-nothing year.

Watch Metal Gear Solid: Rising E3 Is Falling this Winter

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 04:54 PM PDT


We get to see some of the private military fighters, and urban settings from MGS4, but what takes the show is the new style of fighting. Raiden tears up the setting, cutting anything and anyone in his path, including a new type of enemy that shows remarkable outward similarities to the five "Beauties" of MGS4. The style and ability to cut any item in any direction is quite fluid and seems to incorporate a fairly comprehensive system to connect multiple slashes and abilities.

A year has gone by with virtually no news of Metal Gear Solid: Rising. Now as E3 kicks off, the first gameplay video ever has surfaced. We've got it for you, and first impressions on everything it tells about the new game, and the whole Metal Gear series.

Watch Rubicon AMC Preview Trailer Online

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 04:53 PM PDT


AMC taps into our collective paranoia with its compelling new conspiracy series, Rubicon. Will Travers is an intelligence analyst who cracks codes for a living. When Will's world is shattered by an untimely death he begins asking questions, diving into a web of mystery and danger. Not every conspiracy is a theory.

Rubicon is the latest series premiering on AMC, following the success of Mad Men and breaking Bad. It is the story of an intelligence analyst who finds himself in the midst of a conspiracy theory, this takes place in New York.



Count me in times a million for this. Beyond hoping that this is a good show, though, I'm hoping Rubicon can usher in a new era of politics shows because I am the biggest sucker ever for entertainment related to government: West Wing, Spin City, but also The State Within, even Parks and Recreation. My favorite parts of 24 are the parts about subverting entrenched governmental structures and untangling the messy web of politics.

Mircrosfot XBox 360 Slim – Leaked Banner Pics?

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 08:18 AM PDT


This comes as Microsoft were claiming super tight security around their new announcements for tonight and the rest of the week.  Utterly batshit bonkers insane, or whatever the terminology is these days.
UPDATE: Some sites (and CVG readers) are now reporting that this is actually an Xbox 360 HD DVD player (remember those?) Can anyone confirm?

Looks like the new Xbox 360 Slim is leaked through an online advertisement. A banner, which first appeared on console-tribe.com(and is still active at the time of posting), shows a very professional looking flash advert which links to the Italian Xbox website. The console itself boasts a 250GB hard drive, embedded WiFi and is combatible with "Kinect" which may well be Natal's retail title.

It kicks off saying 'presenting the new Xbox 360′ (in Italian, obviously).
It's tagline, 'Vivi Oggi', roughly translates as 'Live today'. Carpe Diem, me old mucker; Carpe Diem.
The rest roughly translates to say 'ready for the technology of tomorrow'.

Pontiac Blaze Extended To All Three Floors

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 08:16 AM PDT


Neighbors told firefighters that an elderly man who rarely comes outside lives at the home, but nobody was found inside the residence. Firefighters believe he may have been picked up by a family member before the fire began.

The blaze extended to all three floors of the home before it could be extinguished. Firefighters had to enter the home in order to put the fire out, and their efforts were hampered by a large amount of household contents, according to the release.

Pat Benatar And Her Husband Write Songs Togather

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 08:07 AM PDT


On the radio, MTV, clubs - everywhere you turned, it was a good bet that before too long, you would hear one of her songs played. The mega hits "Heartbreaker", "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", "Love Is A Battlefield", "Shadows Of The Night" and more helped propel her career to stardom, resulting in her accruing nineteen Top 40 singles, six platinum and four gold albums.

Pat Benatar (born January 10, 1953) is a four-time Grammy Award-winning American singer best known for her mezzo-soprano vocal range and establishing herself as one of rock's top vocalists and one of music's top-selling female artists with hit songs such as "Love Is a Battlefield", "Hit Me with Your Best Shot", "We Belong" and "Heartbreaker". Benatar is one of the top-selling female artists of all time, and one of the 1980s Top Platinum Album Recipients, according to the Recording Industry Association of America with two RIAA-certified Multi-Platinum albums and five RIAA-certified Platinum albums, plus three RIAA-certified Gold albums and 19 Top 40 singles to her credit.

Winner of an unprecedented four consecutive Grammys for best female rock performance, Benatar details a unique time in music history, demonstrating how the advent of music videos turned musicians into platinum selling stars overnight. As the first woman ever to be featured on MTV, Benatar's story is an incredible inside look at the integral role that MTV played in shaping the face of music in the 1980s, as the nascent cable network helped propel rock anthems like "Love Is a Battlefield," "Shadows of the Night," and "Invincible" to the top of the charts.

Between a Heart and a Rock Place: A Memoir offers fans, new and old, an inside look at the singers life as well as a background in to the music business of the 1980's and how her generating changed music forever.

Pat and her lead guitarist and husband of 28 years who still write songs together will be touring alongside REO Speedwagon. Definitely a not-to-be-missed performance. Thanks to her book publicist from Harper Collins , we took a great picture of Pat holding her new book that was just handed her hot off the presses, "Between a Heart and a Rock Place."

Flag Day United States And All Over The World

Posted: 14 Jun 2010 07:59 AM PDT


These US Flag Day crafts projects are for preschool, kindergarten and elementary school children. Flag Day is celebrated on June 14 in the USA.

The National Flag Day Foundation initiates fund raising efforts to support Bernard J. Cigrands' dream to fittingly commemorate the birthday of the American Flag. And to carry the message of our Flag to the future leaders of our great country – our youth.

In the United States, Flag Day is celebrated on June 14. It commemorates the adoption of the flag of the United States, which happened that day by resolution of the Second Continental Congress in 1777.

In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation that officially established June 14 as Flag Day; in August 1949, National Flag Day was established by an Act of Congress.

Many people in the United States honor this day by displaying the American flag at homes and public buildings. Other popular ways of observing this holiday include: flag-raising ceremonies; Flag Day services; school quizzes and essay competitions about the American flag; musical salutes; street parades; and awards for special recognition.
