Thr33 Ringz

3 07 2008

T-Pain’s third album, Thr33 Ringz, was set to release on September 30, 2008, but is now set for November 11, 2008 because of problems with Silver & Gold, which will not be featured on the album (reason why is on http://www.atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?p=2178822#2178822). Two of the songs, his first single Can”t Believe It featuring Lil Wayne, released July 28, and his second single, Chopped N Skrewed featuring Ludacris, released September 23, can be downloaded. T-Pain has released his third single Freeze featuring Chris Brown on October 14, 2008. He has also performed two other songs called Ring Leader Man at the 2008 BET Awards and Badside at Indig02 Arena in London. The song Ringleader Man will be released on October 28 for the “iTunes Countdown to Thr33 Ringz” and not as a single. I believe that this album should be good by the way the songs are sounding, Chopped N Screwed featuring Ludacris is sounding great, go to http://www.zshare.net/audio/1898684751cc8ded/ to listen to it, and, to listen to Can’t Believe It featuring Lil Wayne, which is the first single off the new album, go to http://www.zshare.net/audio/1421140209b3b7d8/. Go to http://www.zshare.net/audio/19916820e85dad72/ to listen to Freeze featuring Chris Brown. All single’s album covers are supposed to be like circus flyers, as well as his music videos and style of dress, which all tie into the overall theme, the circus. Also, we have a short preview of the song Ring Leader Man from the BET Awards.

Guest appearances include Ludacris, Chris Brown, Ciara, Lil Wayne, Akon, T.I., Kanye West, Musiq Soulchild, Raheem DeVaughn, Diddy, Mary J. Blige DJ Khaled, and Jay Lyriq, Young Ca$h and Tay Dizm of Nappy Boy Entertainment.

T-Pain has released a mixtap called Pr33 Ringz, which proves T-Pain’s rapping skills. Go to http://www.imeem.com/people/yn6iO7/playlist/ZNQGF8BK/tpain_pr33_ringz_da_mixtape_2008_music_playlist/ to listen.

Abortion: PROBLEM SOLVED

19 08 2008

 

we here at the ace 4 decided that with all of this debates over hot topics like abortion, offshore drilling, and the problems of the world in general, can eaisily be solved. so we decided to make a little segment called “Problem Solved”. 

now were not saying that your right or wrong. were not saying that you have to listen to us and obey us like some dictators (but it would be cool). we are just saying that whatever the problem may be, we have an idea of how to fix it. so dont get mad if you disagree with us, instead, debate your issue as a comment and we will try to get back to you as soon as possible.

now, todays topic is one that has had america debating for a couple of years. let me give you a hint, it involves a fetus, vacuum, and much blood. ABORTION.

the way i see it, guys should not even care about this topic given the fact that they cant give birth, and that should have girls up in flames. i mean, shouldnt it be up to the women to decide if giving up a baby is wrong or right? shouldnt guys be more interested in weather there will be a playoff in college football? i sure think so (last years championship could have eaisily been LSU-UGA or UGA-MIZZU).

the second thing that really pisses me off is that people say how wrong it is for a woman to have an abortion and why we should not let them have one. well maybe if women in general would stop going out in public wearing little to nothing and taunting guys with their bodies and basicity saying “yeah, i want to get screwed”, (not that anythings wrong with that 😉 ) then maybe the female wouldnt find herself pregnant. i mean, it takes two to have a baby. maybe you could stop getting screwed. or maybe you could learn how to defend yourself from rapist by carring a gun on your person.

the third problem i have with this whole issue is that people over-react about this whole issue. if you make abortion illeagle, then we are going to have an overpopulated america, more people in poverty, and possibly less strippers :(. but if abortion is leagleized (self choice) then all you have to do is say “no. i dont want one” or “yes. i need one”. its that simple. if you dont like it, dont get one. if you need one. get one. no more arguing over “well its still a child”. no more guys protesting something they have no power over. just a simple yes or no. 

geeez people. think.

*****NOTICE***** i hate killing as much as the next person, but an embryo. basicity an egg and a single sperm. theres no way  you can defend that.





The Only Madden 09 Review that Matters

16 08 2008

Well my fellow maddenites, the time has come. the time we start to be taken seriously for the real competetors that we are. we are finally recognized not as aditcs, but as serious competive gamers. 

That means that madden 09 is out and it is kickin some ass. i personally got the game on Tuesday the day it came out and this game raises a few eyebrows in both a good way and a sorta good way.

Now im not saying that the new madden sucks or anything, but let me start with the bad news first: first off, when playing an online game and you are uberpwning a noob, (that means beating someone for those of you that dont know what im saying) you will NOT, i repeat, WILL NOT get a win if the other person quits, instead you can choose to quit yourself, giving up the chance to record stats and things, quit the game and count it, which simply records your stats after you quit, or finish the game aganist the cpu. what this means is that if im beating someone 55-3 at the end of the first quarter, i have to play the other three quarters like it was a regular “play now” game aganist the computer. this aggravates me to no end and it proably will do the same to you too. 

now the second problem is that this game is VERY different from Madden 08, and not only in its +85 improvements. in 08, you could easily trow a jump ball to Sydney Rice on the Vikings while he runs a fly and he would come down with it like Randy Moss. in 09, not so much. in 09, the defenders will automaticly play a star reciver better than in 08. great for the difficulty and gamers looking for a challange, but for me, this frustraded me given the fact that in 08 i was a semi-pro in madden, but EA Sports made 09 harder for veterans of the game, yet eaiser for noobs. 

the third major biggie is that EA lied to us about the graphics. true, the graphics are superb, the grass left stains in my tv as a matter of fact, but when we watch the comercials we see this:

but you dont get that. the game looks more like 08 than this. the only drastic difference is the physics of the players. for instance, if i am running the ball with LT, you can somewhat “feel” him claw into the grass when he makes a cut inside and breaks off a 50 yard TD run. 

Now for the good, but im afraid that theres so much good that ill run out of space.

the biggest great is the madden IQ feature. this is baisicly a grading system used to see how good you are at madden out of what i think is a possible 1000. (mines 608 for the record and its not slowing down) you get tested in the new virtual trainer wich is cool, but really shouldnt be that much of a big deal in my opinion. the endzone celebrations are fun because you can now steal a players celebration after a big play. i like to copy shawn merrimans dance thing alot when i play aganist san diego.

anyway, the point is that madden 09 is sick beyond sickness can go. if you want a schooling in 09, invite DMStudMuffin15 on xbox live and get a REAL review of the game

Zimbabwe’s 100-billion-dollar note

A Zimbabwean man holds new 500-million-dollar notes

A Zimbabwean man holds new 500-million-dollar notes

Zimbabwe, dealing with a record 2.2 MILLION percent inflation, has introduced a new 100-billion-dollar note that will go into circulation July 21 joining about a half dozen high denomination notes including 100 million, 5 billion, and 25-billion-dollar notes. The south African country has been undergoing hyperinflation whcih has shot up from 165,000 percent in February to 2.2 million in May. Independent economists say that this percentage is grossly understated, saying that it is estimated more around 10 to 15 million percent, either way, that’s still bad. Zimbabwe’s accustomed economic crisis has left at least 80 percent of the population living below the poverty threshold and mass shortages of basic goods in shops.

Batman: The Dark Knight

20 07 2008

Batman: The Dark Knight came to theaters yesterday (opening night), i luckily managed to grab a few seats for me and some buddies (my parents). We arrived at the theater around 8:30, we ended up buying tickets to the 10:45 show though. The 8:30, 9:15, and 10:00 movie were all sold out. With most new releases at our theater, they put out a line where you wait in to enter the movie from, so, we waited in this line for about an hour, but, we were some of the first ones in. About 15 minutes before the movie started, a little man walked into the front and center of the theater and said that this movie was 100% sold out and that all available seats must be filled. The Dark Knight‘s run time is about 2 and a half hr+, so we got home around 2 in the morning. But oh was it worth it. This movie was incredible, i mean, it’s no doubt the best of the series ever. Heath Ledger (Joker) as you all know, died after filming had ended, but his acting was phenomenal, he played this crazy little man like he really was him, putting no less than all his effort into every scene, he is probably going to be up for the Best Actor Academy Award and should win it. All the acting in this movie was crazy amazing. This film features Two-Face, as well, but you will have to see the movie yourself. I will not give you a plot summary, or any other kind of review, because this movie is worth every cent you are paying for at your over-priced movie theater, and does not deserve to be written down on virtual paper. You are now required to go and see this movie, even if your like me and have’nt seen the other Batman‘s, because this movie is going to be sitting in the #1 spot for quite awhile and should win plenty of awards.

In memory of Heath Ledger,
