    Well i need to lrn2read sorry.

    Also i just called and ask and during the time of the meet and greet it is not an age restricted area. (also it's a meeting space not really a "public club")

    Also glad i called since i didn't pay attention to the date and for some reason thought the con was the first weekend in oct. I am really loosing it glad i didn't book a hotel yet would have been the wrong date.

    Bleeding Ulcer?

    They actually received a Nobel Prize for that discovery. Do note that advil and other NSAIDs when taken on an empty stomach can damage your stomach lining.

    Also there is an autoimmune disease that can cause your hematocrit lvl's to plunge like that. http://www.suite101.com/content/auto...c-anemia-a1936

    My dog had the canine version and had to get treated with steroids to suppress her immune system for a few months till it stopped being so aggressive.

A lot of times hotels give discounts too if several reservations are made for a particular event, so Paragon Studios may have been able to save money this way. Me, I can go either way though, I do not favor venues that automatically force a certain segment out of the M&G.

    As for whether this particular place is a 21+ M&G type of place . . . I have no idea, never saw that in the hotel website or the lame website for the club itself. I have to assume that Jay and Terry are drawing a conclusion based on the fact that most (or all?) the other M&Gs have been at bars that did not allow teens in. Or it could be that since they are from the area, they know something I don't. I didn't ask them about that though.

    I find it "telling" though that I asked about this in an earlier post, because Jay and Terry were so pissed ,and still have not received and answer. Kinda reminds me of another few recent threads that never got an answer.

    Anyways, I live in Hawaii, so I am pretty sure I'll never get to go to a M&G here. At least the right and left coasters have that going for them.
    If you go to the hotel web site and look at the mettings area you will see that they basicly have hall space. The original post made no mention of the club that was a link a player posted to help people. My guess is this will be held in the meeting spaces as doing so gives NC soft either a discount or a certain amount of rooms which they do need to attend the con.

    I have seen players answer things purposly wrong to stir up drama if it's not in the main post take it for what it is a guess. Until Tea or 08 clarify it i see no age restriction atm in that main post.
  4. Honestly I couldn't even tell you what the prizes are cause that's not why I wanted to join, same with the league I didn't even know there where prizes until people started lol'ing about t-shirts. I don't get why winning is more important to some teams then just having fun. There is so little organized PvP why muck it up with pointless drama? Just have fun, play for fun and you win in the way that's important.

    Re PvPEC (and PERC) these groups have a hard enough time keeping a good name for themselves as it is. I know on Justice when I joined PERC it was like lol PERC. Freedom PvPEC is the same way it's lol PvPEC. So add in rep's who are confrontational, rude, and are doing this for all the wrong reasons ( I don't know either of you but this is my impression now from this thread alone) and you have destroyed any headway the PvPEC has made. Also when you do misbehave and are a rep you get the smack down hard. In truth there is little reason to join you can have your own events you can ask for gold titles etc. That said CK has my ultimate respect the league was a success in gettig new people into PvP and it was a blast and if this ladder makes it past the drama she will have run the only 2 organized PvP events to have made it past a few weeks in this dwindling PvP community (r.i.p. the test ladder) and I doubt anyone other than other PvPEC reps have a clue as to the amount of work running something like this takes. She was totally talking about me re the hating people in PERC thing though

    On a side note I posted on dUmb's forums about joining one of their forming teams beause they have the best PvP attitude, everyone could learn by their attitude and sportsmanship. They where always my favorite team to go against in the league because win or loose you where bound to have fun. I am a complete and total liability to my team and they still play me and like me so A&C rocks

    Where are you reading this??

    It says nothing about an age limitation, and since it's in a hotel meeting space i see no reason there would be one.

    Most science terminology does not need to be translated it's sort of universal.
  7. I think you should all be more considerate of the loss of the server status gerbil and the server start button gerbil. Their untimely deaths and need for replacement should bring sympathy. A moment of silence for the server gerbils.
  8. No but you could set up a paypal account and award that as the prize.
  9. I am a handfull.... i had lots of fun on our small but cozy team.

    Wait you told me to unlock mine.....


    Also Hi Rami welcome to both to CoH and Justice. I am one of the NPC Justice reps and would be Happy to assist you in game. Just send me a tell /t @tritonfree when ever you are one.
  15. Just to add some thoughts here as someone with some back issues.


    You really want to do a no impact type of exercise swimming, bike, or elliptical orbiter if you can afford it are great. But there are other home options like seated aerobics', rowing, isometric's and yoga.

    http://exercise.lovetoknow.com/No_Impact_Exercise

    Your problem is in your back and lower body but your upper body movement can generate aerobic exercise I would start there. EVERY little change helps.

    You stated you have dumbbells well you can get a great workout from those. Any muscle you add will in turn help you burn more calories so that will help with weightless. Here is a guide for different exercises. http://www.sport-fitness-advisor.com...exercises.html
    Form is very important much more so then the amount of weight you lift. If your dumbbells are light do allot of reps you will feel the fatigue and still get benefit trust me.

    Regarding diet you stated your eating habits and why. One meal a day will put your body into fat storage mode and make it harder for you to loose weight. I get that you find that easiest so I would say just try to add in a few healthy snacks at least to boost your metabolism a yogurt, milk, nuts, fruit something like that a few times in the day. Again small changes can make a difference. Regarding what others where saying about carbs it's best to base carb intake on their glycemic index value. This is the effect they have on your insulin levels the lower the index number the better. It's a very good practice for diabetic's and those with heart disease. http://www.glycemicindex.com Also drink lots and lots and lots of water, one of the best things you can do to help you loose weight is to increase your water consumption.


    You mentioned a problem with getting certain foods I am not sure about Detroit but here many of the larger supermarkets will allow you to shop online and for a small fee ($10) they deliver it to you.

    Walking even 8 min is doing something however not worth it if it causes neurological symptoms. Do you know if this is caused by the disc hitting the cord, or is it bulging or inflammation? If you should get med insurance I would see a neurologist if you haven't already, and probably an orthopedic dr. If any exercise you do causes weakness, numbness or balance issues I wouldn't do it without consulting a doctor. As Ironik pointed out there are some healthcare option though I don't know your situation. BlueCross and clue shield have several adult low cost programs Adult basic and adult chip, there are state run insurance etc, it might be worth looking into. Eve if you had an MRI done all those years ago you probably should have another to see what's going on with your spine.

    I see many people telling you your making excuses. Having a sever back injury is not an excuse, I speak based on living in daily pain from a herniated disk for a few years. Luckily for me my cortisone injection worked and I dropped allot of weight. For every 20ish lb you drop there is allot of spine stress reduced and it can help alleviate back pain and that comes from one of the neurosurgeons I worked with. You do not want to exercise at the cost of spinal injury, end of story. You need to work a way around that and do it without injuring yourself further. It makes it harder for you sorry.

  18. I hear castle is tweaking CoP not sure when that is going live though.
  19. Yeah I've had about 6 toons restored CS is very good about helping with these types of things. I have even started help tickets off with "i did a stupid thing" and they still tried to help.
  20. The over the ear clipy kind seem pretty secure i just wish i could find smaller buds that have good sound. Most ear buds are too big for my ears and hurt them

    "I" have 16 accts. Myself, Cougar Pride & Dupont Warrior both of whom are my nephews, and their mother Azure Scythe, started all playing this game together 6 years ago, We all have accts, we all use the accts, were family... why cant we? I pay for the accts, We all use them. Hell half the time you think your talking or fighting with me, it might be with them.
    Cougar wanted to take part in the event, He had 2-3 toons in mind he wanted to use. Hes being told he cannot take part in the event if he uses "whats known to be my acct" @Terminal Bliss, UNLESS the acct global is first changed, The individual toon names must be changed, and this one Im assuming, the appearances must be change because Kat told me the toons must not be recognizable as my toons at all.

    To me, this seems unfair and way excessive. having to put out large amounts of actual cash in order to go play in a pvp tourney? Wow... and I really thought we had put the bitterness and out to get eachother attitudes behind us. But maybe Im taking this all wrong and its a rule designed to keep "all the pvpers with multiple accts from letting their FAMILY members that have every much as right to the accounts as they do, from cheating in this most devious way"
    In all fairness it's also keeping with NC Soft rules which PvPEC must do.
