Letter from the Editor

Dear Readers,

Sorry for the lack of PX lately. It's been a long couple of weeks :D Things will be better in about a month's time. (Am I suppose to use an apostrophe there?)

Anyways, some sad news to report, we are looking for someone to step up and provide VOD of the week, as Pholon doesn't feel as if he's watching enough games to decide on the VOD of the week.

- Kau

(by Plexa this week, thanks Plexa)

Glazed Pork Fillets (or anything you'd like to cook in an oven, like chicken breast)

500g pork fillets (roughly 2 fillets)
1 onion
1 tbs lemon juice
2 tbs Apricot Jam
2 tbs light soy sauce (dark works too)
(Note: I usually use very liberal tbs sooo might be closer to 1.5/3/3 or even 2/4/4)

- Peel and chop onion
- In a pot or something similar, add everything but the pork and stir over low heat until the jam has melted.
- Place pork in greased, shallow oven-proof dish in a single layer.
- Pour the sauce over the top and bake, uncovered, in a moderate oven (around 350F/180C) for about 25 minutes, or until pork is tender.

I suggest any player starting out to read these two posts by Chill, which are not specific to a matchup. They can give you some general advice on how to improve your gameplay in the beginning, skills every player needs.

Greetings! You've received this message because we here at Teamliquid have noticed a disturbing lack of personality in your posts. Most members here try to promote discussion by typing thoughtful, meaningful and interesting posts. Others post crude, primitive one-line responses that add nothing but more text to read. Right now, we've got you pegged as an "other". Generally, this means one of two things: 1) You haven't been putting enough effort into your posts, or 2) You're a zombie, caveman or one of those trained apes like in "Congo". Any of those things would be great if this were a buddy cop movie or a movie where you have to babysit a bunch of spoiled rich kids who learn to love you, but it isn't. It's a forum, where all we have to know you by is what you type. So here's to hoping you're part of the first group, and that in the future you put more effort into each post. We'd hate to have to ban you because we thought you were a zombie.

This is not freedom and it is a clear sign that the congressman and even our own president has lost touch with what there duties are. It is there duty to uphold the constitution. No man can prove this is constitutional.. Our decleration and Our constitution is what seperates us from every other nation on the globe. It ensures us that no government can take away our god given right to choose.
The government can not by any means pass the health care bill LEGALY. People are FORCED to BUY insurance to ensure CITEZENSHIP.
such a shame.. this country is such a wreck. Let me be one of the few to say HEALTHCARE IS NOT THE PROBLEM. HEALTH COST IS THE PROBLEM.
The fuck you talking about? You do realize most elderly people on Medicaid/Medicare are against the health care reform, right? Yet, they are using socialized health care for fuck's sake -_-;;

"Forced to pay for everyone's health insurance" Whoopie fucking do, United States is the LAST 1st-class country to have "socialized" health care. By the way, did you even read the damn bill?

Americans piss me off, because they don't even know the basis behind "socialism" (omgsobadright?) -- Sweden has the highest standard of living, and they are considered socialist democracy, but idiots in the States think socialism = bad always.

You fucking idiots, you know those FREEDOM FIGHTERS in Sparta when they fought against the Persians (ie 300)? They were fucking communists. Literally.

lool. figures your not american. already bred to believe bullshit


I'm so envious that you're American and thus bred to fight crime and have heat vision.

unfortunately the government is inclined to believe that it can make the best decisions for everyone because people cant be trusted with making there own decisions because they will always choose the bad.


I thought English was the official language of America...

In the end, your failure to read the commandments is disappointing.

Yeah l10f's new icon is SICK.

Ban of the week will be up tomorrow morning. I sent it to shockeyy originally, so I'll have to re-compile it.

I feel slightly bad for suggesting such an awful game as vod of the week but the end was so tense and awesome and close that I just had to. I found myself getting drawn in despite hating everything about it so if you go into the game without my background hate of everything then it must be awesome.

It is impossible to be a citizen if you don't make an effort to understand the most basic activities of your government. It is very difficult to thrive in an increasingly competitive world if you're a nation of doods.
