Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely - lay your life before him.
Bruce Lee

U.S. Tries to Make it Easier to Wiretap the Internet
By CHARLIE SAVAGE - WASHINGTON — Federal law enforcement and national security officials are preparing to seek sweeping new regulations for the Internet, arguing that their ability to wiretap criminal and terrorism suspects is “going dark” as people increasingly communicate online instead of by telephone.

Essentially, officials want Congress to require all services that enable communications — including encrypted e-mail transmitters like BlackBerry, social networking Web sites like Facebook and software that allows direct “peer to peer” messaging like Skype to be technically capable of complying if served with a wiretap order. The mandate would include being able to intercept and unscramble encrypted messages.

Date of tourney: January 25th, 8:00 P.M. east coast USA time (5:00 P.M. west coast USA time)

Last day to sign up for Tourney: January 20th

map: 384x384, Germany, all sliders in middle except for water which will be all the way to the left. default starting money and experience.

some rules: NO MORALE HACK, if u use the morale hack u will be kicked from the tourney. If you crash then the opponent gets the win unless it's blatantly obvious that it was unintentional (ex: before any action starts or when ur winning), in which case there will be a rematch. If u crash again the win goes to the opponent regardless of the situation. Save the films of your games in case there is a dispute over who won. Report your wins/losses to me/super. We might be in a game so just chillax for a bit until we come out. It will be a matching gens tourney, the gens will be posted after the 20th along with the bracket.

Depending on the number of players that sign up the tourney may or may not be a double elimination tourney.

Well this is all the stuff i could think of. post questions cuz i half-assed this pretty badly and i know i left something out.

GTA4 - Grand Theft Auto 4 released for PC
The wait is over, as Grand Theft Auto 4 for the PC was released December 2, 2008. In only a matter of days there has been a large number of gamers that have experienced many bugs, including poor frame rates, short draw distances, crashes, and missing textures; even on powerful gaming machines. Excitement over new multiplayer features exclusive to the PC, turned to disappointment with connection issues and the forced start of the "Rockstar Social Club" everytime you load windows... The included SecuROM copy protection has also been known to cause problems for some users, to the point where a class-action lawsuit has been filed for it's use in previous PC titles such as "Spore".
 
Many have scoffed at Rockstar's responses to the high volume of bugs, passing many of the problems off on graphics driver issues, or even suggesting:
 
"Most users using current PC hardware as of December 2008 are advised to use medium graphics settings. Higher settings are provided for future generations of PCs with higher specifications than are currently widely available."Rockstar's tech support
 
Potential buyers may want to take a wait and see approach with GTA4, as it's true value as a console-to-pc port will be determined by how well Rockstar is willing to patch the game.

Remembering
It has been almost a year since Shane Campbell, known to us all as (KMA)Sublime, passed away.  While most of us old-timers of the clan got to know him very well during his time here, he and I were pretty much inseparable.  It seemed that Sublime and I played every game we could together, and spent time just screwing around with each other late into the night.

When I first joined KMA in the summer of 2004, I didn’t really know many people in the clan.  Granted, KMA was much smaller than it is know, but aside from Jax, Sublime was one of the first people I talked to and befriended.  Our friendship grew over the next few months until we became inseparable.  Jax and Spastic, among others, often commented to me that Sublime and I were like 1 person.  Us 3 were probably hit the hardest from this tragedy.  I speak for myself when I say that I shed tears when I heard the tragic news, and I don’t doubt that both Jax and Spastic did.  I had grown away from the game in the few months preceding Shane’s death, and everyone, including Shane, tried to bring me back to the game I had obsessively played over the summer.  While I tried when I could, I had drifted so far away from Axis that I had basically forgot how to play.  When I learned of Shane’s death, there was almost no point for me to continue playing.  I stepped even further away from the game, and even from the clan.  I seriously considered removing myself because I felt like it reminded me too much of the great friendship I had built with Shane.   I spent a lot of my time contemplating what I could have done with those few months.  Shane and I would have, in all likelihood, grown closer.  I already thought of him as one of my best friends, and I just wish I had more time to get to know him, and think of him as a brother.

As the 20th of January approaches, I would ask our clan to do something in memoriam of Shane Campbell.  For someone you never knew face to face, and only by the name of (KMA)Sublime.  For a friend of mine.  For Shane.

What are Feeds?

What are RSS Feeds?
Image Many websites have links labeled "XML" or "RSS" or "Atom". All this means is that you can find out about updates to that site, without having to visit it in your web browser. This feature is referred to as "syndication" or "aggregation" . Sometimes it's just called subscribing. And these days, instead of one of these words, lots of sites will use a little orange button. The standard one looks like this: Image It's also common to see buttons that say "RSS" or "XML", which looks like this: Image

All these links and buttons simply means this: The site you're viewing has a feed available.

Choosing the right Feed Reader
There are many different options when it comes to subscribing to feeds. A "Feed Reader" is required for using Web Feeds. This tool works like an e-mail program, but no e-mail address is needed. The user subscribes to a web feed, and then will receive updated content, every time updating occurs. Feed Readers may be online (similar to webmail) or offline. Feed readers are used in personalized home page services like iGoogle or My Yahoo or My MSN to put content such as news, weather and stock quotes appear on the user’s personal page. Content from other sites can also be added to that personalized page, again using feeds.

Image Browser Based Feed Readers
Modern browsers have some functionality as feed readers, with Opera probably having the best features at the time of this writing. However, most lack alot the functionality available in other types of feed readers. We'd advise you skip using your browser as a feed reader, at least until the technology improves.

Image Software Based Feed Readers
Well I have to admit I have yet to try any of the software based feed readers. I'm sure there are alot of them. From a "gamers" perspective, I don't want any program that is going to automatically download anything and effect my internet connection. For this reason I've stayed away from these type of readers.

Image Web-Based Based Feed Readers
Probably the easiest and most dynamic way to read all of your RSS feeds is to setup an online reader page. Many sites offer "custom home pages" and let you include the content you are interested in. These would be our TOP PICK and are profiled below...

Image Mobile Feed Readers
Recently a number of mobile readers have arrived to the market. Some newer cell phones and other mobile devices are including RSS reader technology. So, if you have the right device, you can even stay updated on the KMA site on the go... Smile

Here's our Choices for best web-based Feed Readers
Image
Protopage ( LINK )
Probably our favorite of all the web-based feed readers. Many features including public and private "tabs" - and even pages that your friends can edit. All sorts of built in modules and the ability to display just about any feed that you can find. Here's our protopage for just a small example of what you can do:

http://www.protopage.com/kma-clan

Image
Google Reader ( LINK )
Easy to use, and you can also "blog" or syndicate any news stories you like with a couple of clicks. Even your blog has it's own feed, so users can subscribe to your "blog". If you have an existing google account for services such as gmail, no extra registration(s) are required. Here's our shared page for an example of what you get:

http://www.google.com/reader/shared/09837831312260605727

Image
Pageflakes ( LINK )
Easy to setup and register. Probably the best collection of default content, but not able to make your page public. You can share the page via email, and your friends will receive a copy of the page, and they can customize it to their needs. Here's our shared page for an example of what you get:

http://www.pageflakes.com/RO.aspx?pfp=hIylaqZrN0m9qBO916G2RQ

Image
Netvibes ( LINK )
Probably the easiest setup and editing, and the feed reader itself has nice features. No sharing features at the time of this writing, but still everything you might need from a straight-up feed reader.

Image
Blogarithm ( LINK )
Mostly geared toward tracking blogs and RSS feeds, does offer a cool tool to "republish" all your feeds, called a "Blogroll" to add to your blog or webpage. EXAMPLE ( LINK )
http://www.kma-clan.com/blog-roll.html

Other popular web-based Feed Readers
Image
My Yahoo ( LINK )
Well registration was easy enough, but found the interface to be a little slow in IE. Visited the next day and cookies had already forgotten me. You dont really get a publicly share-able page either, can share only by email or IM, which is basically just a way to try and get your friends to sign up too. I suppose if you use yahoo services already it might be ok.... but otherwise not one of our favorites.

Image
My AOL ( LINK )
Visited the next day and cookies had forgotten me, very similar to yahoo, with no publicly share-able page, you can share only by email or IM, which is basically just a way to try and get your friends to sign up too. I suppose if you use AOL services already it might be ok.... but otherwise don't bother.

Image
My MSN ( LINK )
If you already have other msn services such as messenger you can use your same login. But that's about the only reason to use this service. Maybe others have had a better experience, but I found the MSN site to be very similar to their browser, incapable of processing the current version of many feeds. I'm sure MSN and Internet Explorer will catch up someday, but for now, use another service.

KMA FEEDS
Well here's links to FEED PREVIEWS of our RSS FEEDS, and example of what they will look like when viewed with a proper feed viewer. There are multiple options for subscribing to our feeds on our:
