Fixing the Microsoft Xbox 360 Red Ring of Death

By Danny Arroyo

After much aggravation, I finally figured out how to fix my Xbox 360 after it got the dreaded red ring of death. I can't believe that over half of Xbox 360 owners have been hit with this ring. Talk about a faulty product!

It happened to me just last week. My girlfriend was away for the weekend and it was Friday night. I had a few friends over, and we were playing Madden '10. Excited to have a whole weekend where I could play some games (I rarely have the time I used to anymore), things were looking good. We were midway through our second game, and right out of nowhere, everything just died on us.

We tried turning it back on, and it was exactly what I was fearing in the back of my mind: the dreaded Red Ring of Death (aka the "RROD"). Seriously, what a way to ruin a weekend! We were all pretty bummed to say the least.

What a way to ruin a night. My friend Scott was over and told me that he heard Microsoft is recently taking 8 weeks and more to fix it, and they often slap you with some unexpected bills. The average price of this can be up to $100.

I called my friend James. If anyone knew how to fix this kind of thing, it'd be him. He told me that my best bet was a repair guide that his brother at college had bought earlier this year when his Xbox 360 broke. It'd be my cheapest and fastest bet, and I checked it out.

The cool thing this guide is that they guaranteed I'd have my Xbox 360 fixed in under an hour, or I'd get all of my money back with no questions asked. After checking out the site, I decided it was worth taking my chances for a small price compared to what it might cost me otherwise.

Lo and behold, this guide shared a few possible solutions with me and gave me a number of different suggestions. 25 minutes into the whole thing, I was literally back in action. And it was only 8:30 at night, so there was plenty of time left to get back to our Madden (and then some Halo 3).

Anyway, I'm really glad I found this because I do expect this to happen to my 360 again. If only I wasn't such a Halo lover, I'd just go with a PS3!

I would absolutely recommend taking a look at this product if your 360 has died on you. They offer sensible solutions that are guaranteed to work. And if they don't, you didn't pay a dime. Best of luck to you in your situation!

Wii Modchip Whats the Fuss

By Wii Modchips

Gamers live to polish that car. It is as is if the puttering never ends. Its the same with online gamers and those especially who have fallen in love with the Nintendo Wii products especially the DS and DS Lite game platforms. What is the role of the modchips - its most famed and well known use is to modify the DVD optical drives themselves. Wonder why ?

Before the advent of Wii "Modchips" these computerized gaming platforms could not be altered , upgraded or "enhanced' in any way, shape , form or manner. However leave it gamers to figure a workaround. When it comes to gamers and those who compete in online games and internet gaming "Where there is a will there is a way ".

The new technique that has emerged in the field of modding is the solder less modding. The technique has a very simple installation process which prevents the inexperienced user from damaging the devices. The points where the soldering is to be made is decided in advance and are present in the chips which help the inexperienced person to do very good modding.

Now its a simple case of no fuss , no muss. Previously there were complaints about upgrading or modding Wii devices. Since it was a much more complex and staid procedure , often involving the cost of shipping , with inherent loss along the way - to highly specialized practitioners and technical experts - many stayed away from modding their devices - no matter what competitive edge it gave them in the competitive world of online gaming.

The first generation Wii modchips were based on the "Actel" systems. It was programmable and considered upgradable - yet it was all a bit fairly too complex for most beginner and even intermediate game modders.

The other famous product of wii is the chip. It is the first free wii chip released. It has various features such as original game play back and can also have back ups. These chips have been very famous. They are used by people around the globe. With continuous up gradation it is only getting better.

Dark Sun Campaign Book, a Dungeons & Dragons Game Book

By George Mueller

At GenCon Indy 2009, Wizards of the Coast had a big announcement regarding their flagship roleplaying game, Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition. They announced that in 2010 the next campaign setting would be Dark Sun, the desert world of Athas. This was a very fan-pleasing decision as many gamers hoped that this, would in fact, be the next setting for D&D 4e to be released.

The world of Athas is different than the fantasy settings you typically see in Dungeons & Dragons, like Forgotten Realms, Greyhawk, and Dragonlance. In the world of Athas you have a bleak desert that is more like a 'Dying Earth' setting than a fantasy setting.

Magic is much less common in the world of Athas. The world has negatively altered by the destructive forces of magic. Due to this, magic is much less common among the regular population. The replacement for magic in society is psionics. Psionics are more common and accepted among the populace of Athas.

There are many unique races in Dark Sun that are playable character races. Muls are half dwarf and half human hybrids. Thri-Kreen are mantis like creatures with multiple limbs. Half-Giants are considered a playable character race as well. In addition, there are also the 'standard' races such as Human, Elf, Dwarf, Half-Elf, and Halfling.

There is some variation between the classes in Dark Sun and the classes from traditional fantasy settings. First, there really isn't any equivalent for Paladins, Monks, and Sorcerers in the Dark Sun world. As stated earlier, psionics are much more commonplace so the traditional 'magic classes' are either not represented or are drastically altered in this setting.

There are many Dark Sun books that have been in print which can give players or the dungeon master a 'heads up' on the world before it comes out. The Prism Pentad series by Troy Denning is very good five book series on the world of Dark Sun. Also, the Tribe of One series by Simon Hawke is a three book series with a great background of the world as well.

Many of the Dark Sun resources available on the internet are free for fans to use. There is the Unofficial Dark Sun Wiki, a Dark Sun interactive Atlas for the World of Athas, the Official Dark Sun Discussion Forum at Wizards of the Coast, and many other product releases that are available if you know where to look.

Overall, the Dark Sun setting is a great choice for Wizards of the Coast to make as their next Dungeons & Dragons 4e campaign setting. The world and setting are dramatically different than many of the other campaign setting currently available. The Dark Sun Campaign Guide will come out in 2010 shortly after the release of the Players Handbook 3, which introduces psionics. Look for the game book soon!

The Eminent Artist's From Hollywood's Golden Age

By Leo K Matthews

Back in 1999, The American Film Institute came out with the directory of the top 50 actors from the memoirs of American Movies. These stars are from the launch and the golden time of Hollywood. Many of today's stars may have more ability and they may be better actors but these fine stars will always be remembered.

The number one actor on the list was Humphrey Bogart. "Bogie" as he was suitably nicknamed starred in 75 motion pictures from the 1930's to the 1950's. One of the most notable is "Casablanca" from 1941. He was born in New York City on Christmas day, December 25, 1899. He died from cancer of the esophagus on January 14, 1957.

Following him on the register is Cary Grant, born Archibald Alexander Leach on January 18, 1904. Died November 29, 1986. Number 3 on the listing is Jimmy Stewart, born James Maitland Stewart on May 20, 1908, deceased July 2, 1997. Jimmy Stewart played in the beloved Christmas standard that is still beloved at present, "It's a Wonderful Life".

In the number 4 spot is Marlon Brando, Jr. He was born on April 3, 1924 and he died on July 1, 2004. The famed dancer, Fred Astaire, born Frederick Austerlitz on May 10, 1899 and died on June 22, 1987, is at the number 5 spot. Fred Astaire's silver screen career spanned seventy-six years, and he made thirty-one musical motion pictures. There were 10 films made with Ginger Rogers, the associate with whom he is most often connected.

Number six on the list is Henry Fonda, born on May 16, 1905 and passed away on August 12, 1982. The most thriving box office motion picture of all time starred the number 7 performer on the list. "Gone with the Wind" came out in 1937 and it starred Clark Gable in the lead part as Rhett Butler.

The position of the number 8 spot goes to James Cagney. He is followed at number 9 by Spencer Tracy. Spencer Tracy was part of one of the most successful movie pairings in history along with Katharine Hepburn, who just happens to hold the top spot on the catalog of actresses.

The top ten list is rounded out by the only actor from the silent film age. Charlie Chaplin began his career in 1916 before talking motion pictures. He did not have his first true "talking" show until 1940 with "The Great Dictator".

Of course, preferred actors, actresses and movies are always subjective. Everyone has a different outlook on what is perceived as best. But the inventory of the top actors does consist of the group of actors who made their mark on movie history.

Yoga Music For Meditation Series - OM The Word

By Mariah Claiere

OM, LOGOS And The WORD

In Christianity we call the primal vibration, from which everything comes from, the word. In Hinduism the equivalent is the sound word or mantra OM. OM and the word express the universal principle, a cosmic sound or vibration, which is the original source for everything that exists.

This idea is touched upon by Pythagoras in his famous idea about the "Music of the Spheres". In this idea physical sound is but a mere reflection of the cosmic sound or LOGOS (as it is called in Greek).

The Word And Christianity

The Christian tradition speaks of the power of the word. God speaks words and creates universes. "God said: Let there be light. And light came" (book of Moses). God utters words and the universe is created.

These words symbolize a form of word that come from a higher reality, in our reality called a word. The symbolism is clear and can be seen in many different spiritual traditions. Reality springs forth from a vibration or sound.

OM And The Atom

The terminology and the organization of knowledge are completely different in the Upanishads and in modern physics, but besides this fact there are lots of similarities supporting the idea that OM is the original cosmic sound vibration and source. OM is a subtle audible sound- a vibration.

When we dive into the atom we discover that all matter is in a state of vibration. That vibrations come close to our perception of sound in its poetical quality of music, is expressed by the physicist Dr. Donald Hatch, who states that the universe is not made of matter, but music gives a modern equivalent to the idea of OM as the sound of creation.

Sound And Matter

We now possess the knowledge that matter is illusory and that all matter is made up of atoms which are separated by enormous distances compared with their size. We also know that atoms themselves are not solid but consist of vibrating energy.

The scientist Donald Andrews describes the universe as consisting of atoms which send out a main tone, which then combine in groups forming molecules which he poetically sees as being cosmic chords. All matter and forms can be seen as living entities comprised of chords with each their own complex sound.

OM And Our Everyday Life

The creation myths might not only be the story of how the world once was created, but could also be a symbolic description about the process of creation that is ongoing, and which each one of us is a part of. It is the creation and maintenance of each and every little atom and the realities we are creating with our minds and emotions. And it is going on right now, not in the eternal remote past! If we manage to be in accordance with life, we will be harmonious and happy.

Matter is created by cosmic sound, Matter is cosmic sound. Matter is OM, crystallized and made physical. The universe, the earth and we only exist because the Word is continuously brought forth. Remove the Word, and only the pure empty space " ananda (the creative void as described by the ancient yogis of India) - will be left. This is the original state of the universe before the creation.

OM In Our Spiritual Practice

Advanced practitioners of Yoga have always felt OM as real as the air that they breath. Christian mystics have long know of power of the WORD in themselves and the outside universe. They feel at a deep level the continual emanating of the word OM in the continual creation processes taking place.

We are the authors of our own universe, all our thoughts and emotions coming together in a complex symphony which either sounds harmoniously with the cosmic symphony or creates noise and tension. The choice is ours, whether we choose to play disharmonious music or whether we wish to join creation harmoniously adding our own beautiful song.

So be ever mindful of all your thoughts, emotions and actions because the universe hears you and responds!

Thus far there have been 7 movies released based on the Star Wars storyline. LucasFilms has done a tremendous job marketing these films and creating products based on these movies. One of the more popular products for the Star Wars movies is LEGO sets. The LEGO Group signed on with LucasFilms in 1999 to recreate scenes from each movie and the response from fans has proven to be very positive.

The Phantom Menace was released in 1999, many years after the original movies were released. The LEGO Group has released quite a few sets based on this movie which include the Mos Espa Podrace, the now famous scene from the Phantom Menace. The Mos Espa Podrace includes quite a few Star Wars LEGO mini figures which is even more reason why this LEGO set is prized by collectors.

More than twenty years later, LucasFilms and the LEGO Group teamed up to recreate the Star Wars series in LEGO sets. These LEGO systems are now the LEGO Group's best selling building block toys.

The Empire Strikes Back was the second film released of the original movies. This film was originally released in 1980. Episode V LEGO sets include some highly prized Star Wars LEGO mini figures including Boba Fett, a Han Solo in carbonite, and Emperor Palpatine.

Rural Radio Network

By Jack Ann

The Rural Radio Network (RRN) was an interconnected gathering of six monetary FM broadcasting places distribute through upstate New York and ran from Ithaca, NY -- the first all-radio, no-wireline world large web in the world.It commenced recital in 1948 as an innovative spread service to the countryside community, but strive from video -- and a deficiency of rational, well-performing FM receivers -- generated the founders' main enterprise arrange to fail. The places altered ownership, as well as program format, numerous times in futile attempts to appreciate profitability.

Perhaps the group's most noteworthy holder was the Christian Broadcasting Network, overseen by televangelist Pat Robertson, which procured the places through a company donation in 1969. A interval of 10 years afterwards, Robertson answered to trade the places and the certificates were leisurely conveyed to separate a person holders in 1981 and 1982, hence disorganizing one of the nation's soonest FM networks.

The rudimentary reflected of erected structure the world's first farmer-owned world large web commenced at the Cooperative Grange League Federation Exchange (commonly famous as "GLF"), an countryside co-op founded in 1920 in Ithaca, which afterwards joined with another co-op to configuration the Agway governing body that lives today.

GLF, in addition found for its job in start the P&C Foods shops flexible chain of bonds, commenced to use broadcasting numerous years before the start of World War II and afterwards assembled an everyday world large web of about 10 AM places, bound by leased phone lines, over which a once a week five-minute program was aired. The worth of this early "network" was confirmed as long as the combat when GLF components encountered it arduous to appear at yardstick meetings.

In December 1946, GLF's chief managers commended a arrange to arrive at the use of broadcasting and disseminated $10,000 to configuration the Rural Radio Foundation, a non-profit governing body that would support numerous countryside interest gatherings embracing the New York State Grange, Dairymen's League, and New York Artificial Breeder's Co-op.

This groundwork, which formally incorporated on March 18, 1947, would be sole holder of a subsidiary monetary broadcasting business, The Rural Radio Network, Inc., with any running yield to be turned back to the start gatherings for instructive and examine purposes. Corporate personnel embraced head H.L. Creal, vice-president Clifford Snyder, and secretary-treasurer George Slocum.

They were marketed on that the recently-opened 88-108 MHz FM band proposed advanced reliability over AM "standard broadcast" -- mostly before sunrise when more growers would start their one time a day duties -- and broader chances to begin new places where needed. In April 1947, GLF appropriated an supplemental $200,000 to launch the new FM network.

R. B. Gervan, head of GLF's Information Service, was given a move out of nonexistence from that location to perform as General Manager of RRN until it was well established. Robert B.

Mafia Wars Cheats by mastering Return on Investment (ROI)

By Richard MW Hijinx

One large part of Cheat in Mafia Wars is rapid accumulation of money. Money is a major bottleneck of the game when you first start playing, but this is easily overcome with sound financial tactics and planning. To "cheat" in mafia wars and make money FAST you will HAVE to consider return on investment as part of your decision process when buying properties. Some properties are cheaper to purchase, but don't always provide much bang for the buck. Throughout the Mafia Wars game the best ROI is simply the Mafia Mikes providing approximately 4 times the ROI as the next best investment property.

When you decide to figure out your ROI in Mafia Wars you will need to get some information. You will have to know the cost of the land needed to build a property. You will need to know the cost to build the property. Finally, you will have to know how much revenue that property generates. Let's go through an example using the infamous Mafia Mikes.

Mafia Mikes require two components: an abandoned lot and then construction. The property pays out $12,000 per hour. Construction costs are $969,760. An abandoned lot right now costs me $4,750. The total cost for one Mafia Mikes then is $974,510.

Since we now know how much everything costs and how much we earn we can calculation our Return on Investment.

To calculate ROI you divide your total costs by your hourly earnings. In this case I divide $974,510 by $12,000/hr to come up with a Return on Investment (ROI) of 81.209 hours. This means the property will pay for itself after 81.209 hours. To put this in perspective for you I have exactly 1,266 Mafia Mikes. My next best property has an ROI of 256.5 hours, and I only own 10 of them. So, make this calculation for each property type and TRY to get the ones that pay for themselves the quickest.

Now that you know how to calculate and utilize the return on investment you can begin making just a little bit more cash to fund your Mafia Wars activities.

Database Study Providers Clarified

By Jason Kendall

Everybody is busy these days, and generally should we decide to learn a new profession, getting educated at the same time as holding down a job is the only option open to us. Training tracks certified by Microsoft can fill that gap. You might like to find a training advisor, who can give you some ideas on whereabouts in industry would be best, and the kind of tasks that are a good match for someone with your personality. When you've settled on the career path you want, a suitable training program needs to be singled out that's goes with your ability level and skill set. You should expect to be offered a bespoke package for you.

Many training companies offer a Job Placement Assistance program, to help you into your first commercial role. But don't place too much emphasis on it - it isn't unusual for training companies to overplay it. The fact of the matter is, the still growing need for IT personnel in the United Kingdom is why employers will be interested in you.

Help and assistance with preparing a CV and getting interviews should be offered (if not, see one of our sites for help). Make sure you update that dusty old CV immediately - not after you've qualified! Various junior support roles have been bagged by trainees who're still on their course and have still to get qualified. This will at the very least get you on your way. Generally, a specialist independent regional recruitment consultant or service (who will get paid commission to place you) will perform better than any sector of a centralised training facility. It also stands to reason that they'll be familiar with local industry and the area better.

A regular aggravation for many training providers is how hard men and women are prepared to study to get top marks in their exams, but how ill-prepared they are to market themselves for the role they've trained for. Don't falter at the last fence.

Ensure all your exams are current and commercially required - you're wasting your time with programs which end up with a useless in-house certificate or plaque. Unless your qualification is issued by a company like Microsoft, Cisco, CompTIA or Adobe, then chances are it won't be commercially viable - because it won't give an employer any directly-useable skills.

Don't forget: a training program or a certification is not what you're looking for; the career that you want to end up in is. A lot of colleges seem to put too much weight in the qualification itself. You may train for one year and then end up doing the job for 20 years. Don't make the error of finding what seems like a program of interest to you and then put 10-20 years into a job you don't like!

It's well worth a long chat to see what expectations industry may have of you. What particular exams they'll want you to gain and how to gain experience. Spend some time considering how far you think you'll want to progress your career as it will present a very specific set of accreditations. All students are advised to chat with experienced industry personnel before following a particular retraining course. This helps to ensure it has the required elements for that career path.

An effective training program will undoubtedly also offer accredited simulation materials and exam preparation packages. Ensure that the practice exams are not just posing the correct questions on the correct subjects, but also asking them in the exact format that the real exams will pose them. It throws students if the phraseology and format is completely different. For many reasons, it's essential to be confident that you are completely prepared for your actual certification exam before taking it. Practicing simulated tests will help to boost your attitude and will avoid you getting frustrated with thwarted exam entries.

Proper support is incredibly important - look for a package providing 24x7 full access, as not opting for this kind of support could hamper your progress. Always avoid training that only supports you with an out-sourced call-centre message system outside of normal office hours. Training schools will defend this with all kinds of excuses. The simple fact of the matter is - support is needed when it's needed - not when it suits them.

If you look properly, you'll find professional companies which give students online support 24x7 - including evenings, nights and weekends. Never ever take second best where support is concerned. Many trainees who fall by the wayside, are in that situation because of a lack of support.

Low-spending limit check out the changing ways of tiny-town America brags a desirable cast although is less than gripping-unless you dredge clams, obviously.

Guitar Chords and How To Learn Them

By Payo W Perry

Of all the basic foundations required for playing guitar, guitar chords are the most fundamental. This is due largely to the fact that even music based on melodic lines are in fact being outlined by an invisible chordal background when composed.

Buy a guitar chord book and it's easy to be overwhelmed by the 1000's of chords and names contained with the pages. In truth however, you only 10 basic shapes to open up 100's of songs!

Guitar chords are also divided into families, the family a chord belongs to is determined by it's type. For all beginners we have 3 main families of chords to learn. They are Major, Minor and Dominant 7 chords. With these in place you have all the necessary elements required to form keys and play through complete songs.

Learning chord shapes is actually quite easy, they are not hard to remember. A greater difficulty lies in being able to sound them clearly. You need to press down hard and this is going to hurt your fingers in the beginning stages until the harder skin has built up on your fingers.

You can view this process as a rite of passage for playing guitar chords. Try to press down hard consistently in order to give built the harder skin as evenly and as quickly as possible.

The main distinction we make between chords is whether they are moveable or not. Chord shapes which cannot be moved are normally referred to as Open Chords and generally involve the using of open strings on the guitar. These normally represent the beginner guitar chords we all start of learning.

The second kind are called Barre Chords (pronounced Bar). Barre chords are much harder than Open Chords and as a result beginners will normally wait anything up to a year before learning them. Barre chords can be moved up and down the neck to form new chords without any problem. The main advantage of learning them is the new array of keys they will open for you to play songs in.

A common beginner mistake is to try to learn lots and lots of chords. This is of no real use to you when first learning to play. It's far better to concentrate on a smaller group of guitar chords and ones you'll use consistently in many different songs.

Discover A Whole New World Of Viewing By Putting Up A Satellite Antenna

By John Maltakiso

If you enjoy your television, you will almost certainly be familiar with satellite antennas. Many TV broadcasters offer satellite dishes and receivers included their paid packages.

Often, the satellite dish will be installed and set up by an expert and television channels and services are provided on a contract basis.

However, with the right equipment and a little knowledge, satellite antennas can be used to pick up hundreds of channels from across the globe, legally and absolutely free of charge.

To achieve this, two essential pieces equipment are required - a satellite antenna and a satellite receiver. There are a number of kinds of satellite dishes available, so you will have to decide which one best suits your needs.

Basic - The most basic type of satellite antenna. These can be mounted on a wall or pole and aimed towards a single satellite, so all adjustments need to be done by hand.

Multi-satellite - These are a more expensive type of satellite dish, but they can pick up signals from a number of satellites without adjusting the antenna.

Motor-driven - These pole-mounted satellite dishes can be directed towards any satellite position with a remote control, allowing easy access to countless channels. These are expensive, but a must have for enthusiasts.

Satellite dishes are inexpensive both to buy and set up. A basic satellite system including dish, receiver and a remote can be bought for around $150. A basic motor-driven system should cost about $350. Installation costs for these systems should be about $150.

Expensive satellite antennas with all the features can cost thousands of dollars, with installation costs running to hundreds of dollars. However, you can save some of the cost by installing the system yourself. There are many guides and dedicated sites on the internet which, with the aid of a satellite finder signal meter, will provide you with all the advice you require to install and tune in your dish to receive the free-to-air stations of your choice.

Before you invest in a satellite dish you should do some research. Find out what free-to-air channels are available, which satellites transmit them and decide on the ones that you want. Again, all of this information is easily available on the internet. You can then choose your satellite antenna based on these requirements.

The joy of owning a quality satellite dish is that you can have the best of both worlds. You can receive the best in free television from around the globe, and you can also pick from any number of subscription-based services that are available in the US.

So, if you want to add a new dimension to your TV viewing, a satellite dish could be just what you need.

Why Legal Music Downloads Are Better

By John Roberts

Legal music downloads are only legal if you pay for them. Obviously, there are still peer-to-peer sites out there that you can get free music from and it is always tempting to use those instead of paying for your music library. After all, there are so many people out there in cyberspace, how could anyone possibly be worried about one lonely person is doing?

Although there are only two or three cases that actually made it to court, there are thousands of cases that have been settled out of court. Every time you download music for free it will be considered as one count of piracy. And every single time you share that song that is another count of piracy. So you can see how quickly this can grow into a substantial case for the record companies.

Many peer-to-peer sites will download a song from several sources so you do not have control of how many times you are sharing music. If you have just one popular song, you can owe thousands of dollars from just one song. Most suits that the record companies' pursue end up settling out of court.

However, in today's economy who can afford several thousands of dollars in fines and court costs? The benefit of paying for a song or album is that once you pay for the music, it is yours. You can do whatever it is that you want to do with it. Most of the music sites have taken care of the DRM restrictions so that their customers do have to worry about what happens after the purchase.

Most people only want a track or two off of an album, so you are looking at cost of $0. 99 to $1. 29 per track. This is not a moral decision. By paying for your music upfront you could be saving yourself a lot of money.

Before the age of cyberspace and peer-to-peer sharing, the piracy laws were written that even buying an actual album and loaning it a friend was technically breaking the law. The music industry could not stop this, so they just had to accept the loss. They no longer do today and they are not going down willingly.

It the best course of action is to pay your money upfront and happily trot off with your music to do what you will with it. When faced with alternative, is there a better solution?

Halo 3: The Spectacle

By Casey Jones

The other day, while looking through the Internet for information on the Halo 3 weapons cheats, I stumbled upon a number of what-if scenarios? What if Master Chief took on different famous characters from films, comic books, and legends? Here follows a list of some of these battles and my take on the outcome.

While it is technically not a Halo 3 weapon cheat, the match-up of Master Chief versus Robocop would be interesting. According to the information on the Internet both have a few similarities. They're both human, they've both been enhanced, they both have amazing armour and they are both veteran combatants. Most respondents predicted that Master Chief would defeat Robocop, but let's be honest here, Master Chief can be defeated with a hand-gun, whereas Robocop kept on going after being blown up at a gas station. The victor has to be Robocop.

When Master Chief battles with the next fighter he would do well to have a Halo 3 weapon cheat. The next is MacGyver. Master Chief has a lot going for him. He is proficient with a number of weapons; he has that amazing armour; he has some incredible vehicles at his disposal; he's a Clint Eastwood type loner and he can regenerate himself. However, in short, MacGyver is brain over brawn. It would probably boil down to the same considerations in a fight between Batman and Superman. If it's a closed arena where it's man versus man, Master Chief is going to win. But put this battle in the real world with Swiss army knives and duct tape at his disposal, and MacGyver's going to wipe the floor with our futuristic pal.

OK, so far Master Chief is 2-0 down, and it's beginning to seem like he can really use a Halo 3 weapon cheat or two. But let's give him another opponent. This time it's going to be Master Chief versus the Terminator. We already know Master Chief's powers, the Terminator's are an ability to master any weapon, relentless willpower, doesn't get tired, amazing detrermination to kill his target. It all comes down to the Spartan laser weapon. As one respondent pointed out, if Master Chief can destroy vehicles with this weapon he can certainly blast a sizeable hole in the Terminator too.

Let's have one more contest before Master Chief finds his Halo 3 weapon cheat. What can he do against Boba Fett from Star Wars? The only differences between Master Chief and Boba Fett are that Boba has no shields, owns his own ship and has a jet pack.

Many people believe Star Wars would win this battle, but Master Chief's weapons are much more powerful than those owned by the bounty hunter. This one makes it evens at 2-2.

So, those are the results. In this tiny poll that we read on the Internet, Master Chief is your average kind of super hero, who is not sure to win every contest, unless he finds his weapon cheats or the story writers want him to, that is.

Which Guitar Amp Is Best For You?

By Frank Frederics

Everybody likes music and if you are a guitar player you want that the sound that is produced that your electric or acoustic guitar have the quality you want. The sound of the quality is determined in first place by the quality of the instrument and in second place by the amplification equipment you have.

For this purpose, you need a good guitar amp. Choosing a guitar amp is not a difficult task, and the only thing you need to know are some basic tips that will help you to get the perfect guitar amp.

There are several types of guitar amps and all of them have different level of power, equalization and other important features that will help you to produce a different and more powerful, less powerful sound.

If you have a simple electric acoustic guitar and you are going to play your guitar indoor in a place that don't require a large place, you can use a small guitar amp that can cost about $100 or less. There are different brands but I don't want to talk about brands. For choosing a guitar amp the most important thing is select a good brand and test your instrument in the shop you purchase your guitar amp.

There are a couple of options you can test in the same place you are attempting to purchase the guitar amp. Also there is a special guitar amp of bass guitars. Bass guitar require a stronger guitar amp in capacity and you never should connect a bass guitar in a simple guitar amp because it could cause problem to your equipment.

I highly recommend that you ask to the seller the guitar amps that are specially designed for electric guitars in the case you have an electric guitar.
