Snapdragon Stadium
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Snapdragon by Qualcomm for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
For 11 days this holiday season starting December 18th, will be renamed to Snapdragon Stadium after the company that creates the processors that power smartphones all over the world. The San Diego wireless chip giant, which has held the naming rights on the Mission Valley stadium since 1997, is temporarily changing the name from Qualcomm Stadium to Snapdragon Stadium. Snapdragon processors by Qualcomm are the digital brains inside mobile devices made by top manufacturers like Samsung, LG, Nokia, and HTC. These processors are a key element in how we run our lives, communicate, and stay connected with those who matter most to us. This is an exciting time for Snapdragon, the processor that makes all of that possible, especially around the holiday season when we are most likely to upgrade our phones. During this time the venue will play host to a Chargers Sunday night game against Baltimore along with two college bowl games: the San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl (Dec. 21) and the Bridgepoint Education Holiday Bowl (Dec. 28).
With the incredible focus on smartphones and tablets in this generation, Snapdragon leads the way in our quick and mobile lives, keeping us connected wherever we go. Be sure to watch the upcoming bowl games to see the name change for yourself and support the company which has created the technology that keeps you connected to everyone in your life at the touch of a button.

PokerRoom May Be Reopening Ahead of US Online Poker Legalization
Thanks for this post from Demonking at Fiverr!
A longtime online poker playing site, PokerRoom.com, has been speculated to re-open for online real money poker playing once again. PokerRoom, who originally opened in 1999 and closed in 2009, is talking about the possibility of opening once again. A once very profitable and trustworthy online poker site, PokerRoom was forced to pull out of the US in 2006 with the passing of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. Pulling out of the US proved to be detrimental to the future of PokerRoom, causing them to eventually shut down its operation in 2009.
Just a short two years later, there is talk of PokerRoom once again opening their site for online poker playing. The rumors have not been confirmed, and it’s all speculation at this point, but poker cash players are hopeful. A very reputable and trustworthy site, PokerRoom will have its name recognition on its side should they decide to open for online poker playing once again. Players of all ranks, both new and old will most likely be ready to trust PokerRoom once again since it was considered the most reputable site when it was open for playing.
PokerRoom is a part of the OnGame network and is currently ranked number 5 in the world of online poker playing. Should PokerRoom re-open, it might not be ranked number 5 immediately, but chances are that it will get there in a very short amount of time.
The rumors that PokerRoom is re-opening all started from a tweet from one of bwin’s SEO Managers. While that tweet has since been taken back, the speculation is still out there. Why would PokerRoom want to open once again? One speculation is that there is talk that the US will once again legalize online poker playing. Should the US legalize poker once again, there’s no doubt that OnGame Network as well as PokerRoom will be allowed to do business in the US.
With the website of PokerRoom being revamped, PokerRoom has also opened up a Facebook and Twitter account. These events have helped to fuel the rumors that PokerRoom is making a comeback in the near future.
Not only is PokerRoom one of the internet’s most reputable online poker playing sites, it’s also the first site to receive the approval of Ecogra, a London based online player protection organization. PokerRoom is also the only poker site to offer a Mac client. All of these factors along with their outstanding reputation make the comeback of PokerRoom an exciting concept for people everywhere who want to play poker online.

My Family
Thanks for the post from Lynn Guy
Louisiana is where I grew up and my siblings all still live here, too. I actually only come back when I need a vacation which is why my husband and I bought a condo right in the heart of town – so we don’t have to stay with relatives when we come in! It’s brand new and it’s got all the amenities we need like pet care and Direct tv baton rouge and even a parking garage. There’s something great about how my family is so close but boy, when you get us all in the same house for a weekend you can count on there being fireworks. That’s what happens when you get a dozen Cajuns together for any type of holiday and don’t get me started on what it’s like when Uncle Louis is there! I love my family, I really do, but they’re a crazy lot and I wouldn’t ask my husband to have to deal with them often like I would do it myself. That’s not fair.

That's right!

Yet Another Hilarious Modern Warfare 3 Trailer
Even after the game has been released, the trailers get even better. If you still have not been convinced to play this game, try it. Even though Infinity Ward has never fixed the spawn system and probably never will, it is still an awesome game.
