Why didn’t you build your own router and sell it to your customers?  Of course, it was possible, but it didn’t make business sense to do it.  Therefore, we relied on the experts that have been designing, building, and distributing them most of their whole lives.

Well, just like the demand for routers back in the late 90’s, the market is demanding managed services for performance <http://press-releases.techwhack.com/39733-managed-services-4> (core, UC, and data center) and security <http://blogs.gartner.com/adam-hils/2009/07/02/in-a-recession-mss-showed-strong-at-the-2009-gartner-information-security-summit/> . HEIT’s foundation is from experts that have ran military nuclear operations, global ISP’s, and managed IT.  Why not rely on HEIT to deliver your managed services white labeled to your company just like others (see article <http://www.crn.com/managed-services/219400491> )? HEIT is 1 of only 4 global Master MSP’s by MSP Alliance and has already gone through the stringent audits for SAS-70 Type II, banking, and even one of Cisco’s first Master MSP’s.

What does a small $2500/mo managed services deal give a VAR/SI or SP? strong profit margins, increased relationship with client, and increase valuation of your company by over $100,000, according to brokers, MSP Alliance research, and recent transactions!!!

Pupper er alltid et stort tema for oss mennesker, både for den kvinnelige delen av befolkningen som for den mannlige. Pupper skal i dag være store, brune og på display. Dessverre er det ikke alle som har blitt født med denne gaven.

Så til deg som ikke var på Guds side under puberteten og ikke ble velsignet med slike fantastiske fettklumper midt på brystkassen – eller hvis du ikke fikk nok penger i konfirmasjonsgave, hjelpen er nær og puppeekspertene Nathalie og Cecilie gir deg her svarene på hvordan få en prektig brystkasse som garantert vil skape hakeslepp, sikkel og uforstyrret øyeballing. Vi lover deg at ingen vil titte deg i øynene etter dette (perfekt for deg med under middels vakkert utseende da kløften vil trekke oppmerksomheten til en lavere region av kroppen).

Hvordan gå fra dobbel A til dobbel D på null komma svisj?

***Påpeker at personen avbildet på de illustrerte bildene nedenfor IKKE er meg, men en modell innleid for dette spesielle tilfellet. (True story, jeg har ikke så store pupper til vanlig engang.)***

STEP 1:
Stram BH-stroppen til det ikke går lenger.

OBS! Ikke for mye. Puppen skal være i den øvre delen av koppen.

STEP 2:
Finn frem de tykkeste og fineste sokkene du har (NB! Det er en fordel at sokkene er litt myke mot huden).

Du kan se at kløften begynner å ta form allerede på dette stadiet.

STEP 3:
Stapp sokkene ned i den nederste delen av cup’en godt plassert under puppen.

Tips! Plasserer du sokken nederst i ytterste hjørne vil du få en mer samlet kløft. Og hvis du plasserer sokken mer mot midten av BH’en vil kløften få en mer klassisk pornolook.

OBS 2! Her er det lett å begå ett feiltrinn ved å la brystvortene komme til syne. Vær derfor forsiktig med å dekke brystvortene med øvre BH-kant. Det er en kunst å holde brystvortene skjult til enhver tid.

STEP 4:
Finn deretter frem ditt solpudder og kost på et godt lag.

Tips! Skyggelegg kløften for å fremheve størrelsen på puppene ved å sminke kløften ekstra mørk i en Y formet bevegelse.

RESULTAT:
Du vil nå ha en byste som Pamela Anderson ville ha misunnet. Gå ut og eksponer dine nye og tilsynelatende naturlige patter.

Enjoy!

Looking through the release schedules a few days ago I noticed a few games I was quite looking forward to have slipped or are still down as having a release date of ‘TBA.’

Always disappointing to see games fall away so I thought I’d see what the latest is on a few of these projects:

Hei$t

I really liked what I had heard about Hei$t, a game in which you not only carry out the heists but plan them as well.

Wikipedia lists this as for release in September but we’ve seen nothing of it – no new trailers or game info for months and months, so I’m presuming that date is incorrect.

On the plus side it’s still listed on Codemasters site so fingers crossed after it’s development hell it will actually make it out.

STATUS: Faint outline on the radar

I Am Alive

There has been pretty much nothing on this since last years jaw dropping trailer (see below) and that is never a good sign.

Despite rumours of a cancellation for PS3 last week (which were denied officially by Ubisoft) the game appears to be on track for a Q2 release next year.

If we still haven’t seen anything by Christmas I’ll be concerned but Ubisoft have a decent track record so I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt.

STATUS: On the radar but off course

Aliens: Colonial Marines

Colonial Marines has been bugged by rumours of cancellation throughout the project and has been overtaken by Aliens Vs Predators (which is due out early next year).

I’m hoping that maybe Colonial Marines is loads better than A Vs P and Sega (who make both) don’t want to show off Marines until the other game is out… I can dream can’t I?

STATUS: Faint outline on the radar

DC Universe Online

Making a console MMO is always going to be a challenge and a project the size of DC Online – especially one with so many recognizable characters – is always likely to run into difficulty somewhere along the line.

This game gives you the chance to create your own superhero/villian and fight alongside the good guys or the bad guys from DC comics. I know a lot of peeps who are excited about this one.

Originally expected Q4 of 2009 it seems DC Universe Online has been pushed back to Q2 2010 – hopefully the delay will give them extra time to polish the experience.

STATUS: On the radar and heading straight for us (in 2010)

L.A Noire

This game has been floating round since 2004 and it seems 5 years might just be enough development time.

Set in the 1940’s L.A Noire is a detective story in which the player must solve various crimes.

Team Bondi have, according to Wikipedia, confirmed that the game is in the final stages and it’s hoped the game will arrive in 2010.

This is a Rockstar product so I expect it’ll be excellent but the extremely long development time leave me wondering…

STATUS: On the radar but off course

The Outsider

I thought this title had lots of promise when I first heard about it.

Basically you play as an (ex?) CIA agent on the run from the government. Player choice is huge and effectively the story is set up depending on your actions.

Everything points to this being in development and there’s no reason to suspect it will be dropped.

However with no info released on it for ages and no release date even announced, I suspect we’re looking at least Q3 2010 before we get our hands on The Outsider.

STATUS: Faint outline on the radar

So there we go, all is not lost even if a few of these games are off course for the time being…

Okey, så må også jeg (som et dusin andre) si at Chuck Bass er kongen av Gossip Girl. Etter et voksende forhold til Gossip Girl må jeg inrømme at Chuck Bass bare stiger og stiger, og stiger. Han får til og med en stjerne i margen. Den blærete, egoistiske, bad boy‘en smelter mitt hjerte.

Chuck: I love it when you talk dirty
Serena: You just like it when a girl talks to you
Chuck: Actually I prefer them when they’re not talking.

XOXO – You gotta love him!

Coming In Under The Radar

The games we’re not hearing about that much.

By Sith Lord Jim:

“Just a few words to introduce you to a new section just for you, our valuable readers. Under The Radar is one of several new topics that the team at XboxOZ360-Blog will be introducing in the coming weeks . . . All aimed at providing you with something a little bit different. Rather than spewing up the same news that is being circulated around the net ad nauseum . . . we want to give you a slightly different experience.

We have a belief here at XboxOZ360-Blog that our readers do honestly want to know more than just the ‘usual’ tit-bits of “news” floating about the net, and we believe you desire to hear about the other things that are making gaming such a mainstream affair these days. So, to start it off, here’s Sir Lord Jim’s first entry in the Under The Radar which will bring you game/s each week that seem to slipping by us un-noticed.” – Ed- XboxOZ360:

• comin’ in under the radar

This year is already shaping up to be stuffed to the brim with massive titles. With titles like Grand Theft Auto IV and Burnout Paradise demanding your attention, and forcefully ramming their advertising down your throat at any given opportunity, it is easy to miss out on some great yet poorly promoted games.

We here at the XboxOz360-Blog don’t want you to miss out on brilliant titles just because you have not heard about them. So check back each week as we discuss our top five “under the radar” titles for 2008.

Genre: Action
Release Date:
US: Q2 2008
Europe: Q1 2008

As overpopulated as the games market is becoming with sandbox style games, this is definitely one to watch out for. Set in San Francisco in 1969 you play as Johnny who has just been released from prison and wants to rob the biggest bank in the city. You are tasked with building up your crew’s skills, winning the favour of different factions, planning, and going through with bank heists.

Robbing banks will require a careful balance of planning and thinking on your feet while having to keep not only your crew under control but also any hostages. When a single shot can summon the boys in blue, you may choose to keep things more discrete. Of course there is the much more fun option of just killing everyone including the police, but then people will hear about the violence and civilians may start carrying guns to protect themselves.

The side missions will be used to build up favor with different groups, who like in Assassins Creed will assist you for assisting them, and to increase the skills of your crew. Factions like the cities garbage men will do things like getting in the way of the police who are pursuing them when you have their favor.

The most exciting feature for me is the ability to use customizable voice commands. Voice commands can be used for things like ordering your crew around, giving hostages commands and the like. Because they are customizable, if you want everyone to get on the floor rather than using the phrase that is the standard in the game, you can have changed it so you can yell something much more badass or perhaps much more polite. This interactivity is sure to make the experience more immersive as well as having some potentially hilarious implications.

There will be some form of multiplayer, but it is yet to be revealed. I am hoping for some form of co-op, but we will have to wait for more information. As far as we know this one is scheduled for the first half of 2008. Hopefully we will hear more about this one in the next few months, but so far it looks like its one that you should not miss.
