GAINESVILLE -- Strong-side linebacker/defensive end Ronald Powell was inspired by Minnesota Vikings tailback Adrian Peterson's near record-setting 2012 season.
Now, he hopes his comeback season will be just as successful.
Powell led Florida in sacks (6.0) in 2011 before tearing his ACL twice in the past year. He never played a down last season, and the redshirt junior said he's ready to bust out this fall.
"Just the feeling of running out in The Swamp," he said. "I can feel it, man. It's going to happen for me."
Powell, the nation's No. 1 recruit in 2010, said he keeps a Sports Illustrated cover story on Peterson's incredible comeback in his locker for motivation.
All-SEC picks
Senior left guard Jon Halapio — sidelined all fall practice with a torn pectoral — was No. 10 Florida's only offensive selection (second-team) on the coaches' 2013 preseason All-Southeastern Conference team released Thursday.
Three Gators — defensive tackle Dominique Easley, cornerback Loucheiz Purifoy and punter Kyle Christy — were first-team picks. Junior cornerback Marcus Roberson was named to the second team.

Gynaecologists and Obstetricians Poll
The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists is calling for an overhaul of maternity services. A number of doctors who were polled in a survey said there were too many NHS managers and not enough midwives. Many were concerned that the European Working Time Directive was leading to a reduction in the amount of training for junior doctors. They were also critical of NHS targets, and worried about the challenges they faced in the future – from rising birth rates and complex pregnancies, through to an increase in what their patients expected from them. Dr Maggie Blott, Vice President of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and Hugo Mascie-Taylor, Medical Director of NHS Confederation, join Jenni.
How to Write the Perfect Personal Ad
Would you struggle to describe yourself to an absolute stranger? One third of people under thirty-five are using online dating sites to meet people; requiring them to work their way through a minefield of adjectives and clichés to write their perfect profile to find their perfect partner. But are we the best judges to write our own personal descriptions? Or could we all use a Cyrano de Bergerac to smooth the way for us?

Life under Nazi occupation in Guernsey
Next week sees the 70th anniversary of the occupation of the Channel Islands by German troops during the Second World War. Lyn Renouf Edwards was 5 when German soldiers arrived in Guernsey where she lived with her family, turning upside down what had been till then an idyllic childhood. She's written a book - Enemy or Friend? – about her memories and experiences.
Sonja Sohn from the hit series 'The Wire'
'The Wire' was one of the most acclaimed series in the history of television – despite the fact it never broke into the mainstream. Barack Obama described it as one of his favourite programmes and its fans in Britain laud it as the best thing on TV for decades. It told the story of Baltimore's drug gangs and the police who try to trap them. One of the main characters was Detective Kima Greggs, played by Sonja Sohn. She's now taken a break from acting and has set up an organisation to help young people in trouble. This week she's been in Liverpool, visiting a similar project, aimed at getting people to read.ReWired for Change
First Female Prime Minister for Australia
In a remarkable twenty-four hour uprising yesterday, the ruling party in Australia ousted its formerly popular leader and prime minister, Kevin Rudd, and voted in a new leader – and in so doing made history. Julia Gillard, promoted from Deputy, has now concluded her first day as Australia's first woman prime minister.

I will be happy to transfer a memorial to a relative (most of the time, your husband's great aunt may be an issue, or your 6th greatgrandmother who you share with 645 other descendents). I also give you permission to use any photos I take for other geneological purposes, such as posting on ancestry.com, etc. You do not have permission, however, to use it on a duplicate entry that you made.
Just a note on photos: Pictures taken at the National Cemetery were taken during overcast days, which works better with my camera. Also, if you want to see a larger picture, click on the Photos tab at the memorial and you can read the enlarged one.
As another side note about photos, I took many photos straight on and found my reflection in many of them. I had to delete those and retake them. This is true for black, grey and sometimes red stones. That is why I take photos from an angle. Also, the pictures uploaded have to be 750 KB or less (600 x 800), so they are small. I don't clean the stones.
This from FAQs:
Can I add an obituary to my interment listing?
You should not copy obituary notices from newspapers to an individual's memorial record unless you have permission from the newspaper to do so or you are the author of the obituary. Some obituaries that were published in 1922 or earlier are now in the public domain. In general, obituaries in newspapers are submitted by the family with assistance from the funeral home. If the obituary is added to the memorial record, it should list the newspaper and date the obit was printed for example "Published in the Hattiesburg American, Hattiesburg, Mississippi, Internet Edition, April 11, 2007". Please do not include the names of living or surviving relatives in the biography, unless you have their permission. If you do not have permission to copy an obituary to a memorial, you may put a note stating the name of the newspaper and the date the obituary was published.
Please do NOT add photographs from obituary notices (unless you, personally took the photo), as they are protected by copyright law. Find A Grave reserves the right to remove obituary notices and photographs from memorial records. Similarly, you may NOT scan an obituary and add it as a photograph to a memorial record.
Obituaries for "famous" individuals are usually written by newspaper staff and can not be posted to Find A Grave as the newspaper company owns that copyright.
Please do not include website addresses that may be listed in the obituary as they usually expire within a year after the obituary is printed.

I recommend Dr. Ghostine as he is thorough, careful, encouraging and spends us much time as you need answering questions. I went to him because I had been diagnosed with Hydrocphalus; He put a shunt in my head and I feel 110% better. It has changed my life immediately. If I develop any spine situation he would be my first call.:)

my surgery done by Dr. Ghostine was successful! Dr. Ghostine found my problem on MRI that the radiologist missed. I was having severe pain until my surgery. Dr. Ghostine answered all my questions before and after my surgery. I felt so comfortable with Dr. Ghostine. I would recommend him to anyone who needs an excellent neurosurgeon.

Dr. Ghostine and the staff at Loma Linda are truly remarkable. My 82 year old dad broke his back falling in the shower this past January. Dr. Ghostine and his team were very informative and explained the whole process, which included without surgery, my dad would never walk again. Three days after the surgery, which required rods, places, and screws to repair the break, my dad was up and walking. Throughout the whole process, he was in very little pain. Three months later, he is now fully recovered and completely independent. My family will be forever grateful to Dr. Ghostine and the entire team at Loma Linda.
Submitted April 30, 2014 | flag
Dr. Ghostine is excellent. He is kind, compassionate, and more than competent. The excruciating pain I was having was taken away immediately by the surgery he performed. His staff is pleasant, professional, and very efficient. I would recommend Dr. Ghostine to my family and friends.

The municipality of Montejícar (2,525 inhabitants in 2008; 8,920 ha) is located 60 km north of Granada, and 45 km south of Jaén, at an elevation of 1,140 m asl.
The name of Montejícar comes from the Arabic "Shicar," itself derived from "Hins Monte Xaquer," after the Latin "Mons Sacer," "The Sacred Mount." Once a significant Roman settlement recalled by the Roman fortified bridge of Triana, Montejícar was under the Moorish rule a strategic place defending of the Kingdom of Granada; from the castle built in the 9th century, the only remains are a quadrangular tower, a few walls and a gate. Reconquered in 1486 by the Catholic Kings, Montejícar was listed 12 years later among the seven cities commissioned to supply food to Granada (Montejícar , Montefrío, Íllora, Moclín, Colomera, Guadahortuna and Iznalloz). In the 16-18th centuries, Montejícar was indeed the third bigger grain producer in Spain. Deserted after the expelling of the Moriscos, Montejícar was resettled under King Charles I. In 1514, Luis de Valdivia y Diego de Lizana became the first lord of Montejícar, whose title of "villa" was confirmed in 1538 by Emperor Charles V.

Ivan Sache, 06 Jul 2009
The flag and arms of Montejícar were approved by the Municipal Council on 23 January 2007 and submitted on 6 February 2007 to the General Directorate of Local Administration, which confirmed them by Decree on 15 February 2007, published in the Andalusian official gazette (Boletín Oficial de la Junta de Andalucía, BOJA) No. 46 on 6 March 2007.
The relevant parts of the Decree are the following:
Coat of arms: Shield quartered per cross. 1. Vert a castle argent masoned sable pierced. 2. Argent a Montejícar halberd* gules. 3. Argent an olive tree eradicated vert. 4. Azure an ermitage** argent masoned sable pierced. The shield surmounted with a Royal crown closed.
Flag: Rectangular flag in proportions 2:3, made of a red panel with a yellow tower masoned black and open on the field, with an isosceles triangle placed along the hoist, white with three blue wavy stripes.
The symbols should be registered on the Andalusian Register of Local Entities, with their official written description and graphics (as originally submitted, but unfortunately not apprended to the Decree).
Source: BOJA No. 46, p. 29, 06 Mar 2007 [PDF]
*The Montejícar halberd was found in 1949 by Manuel Gómez Moreno and Hermanfrid Schubart in the Iberic archeologic site of Cerro del Castillo. **The Ermitage of the Blessed Virgin of Cabeza, the patron saint of Montejícar, was built in 1636 on the top of a hill.

- Winslow 84x36 Table
Q:I am considering the 84" long Winslow Dining Table. Can you tell me the dimensions for
1. the overhang on the long ends of the table and
2. the length and depth of the center support under the top (not including the center support that sticks out beyond the two end supports)?Asked on 7/6/2013 by Practical from Glenview, IL
1 answer
A:On the Winslow table the top extends 15" from the base panel on each end and 6" on the sides. The support brace I believe you are referring to is perpendicular to the end panel of the base. We do not have the dimension but an educated estimate would put it at about 28" wide. The table top is 36" wide and the support braces are usually about 4-5" in from the edge of the table.Answered on 7/6/2013 by Design Associate from Room & Board

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (Dec. 4, 2013) – After wrapping up her career "On the Banks" this season, redshirt senior Jonelle Filigno (Mississauga, Canada) earned a spot on the 2013 National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA)/ Continental Tire NCAA Division I Women's All-Northeast Region Second Team, the organization announced Wednesday.
It marks the second consecutive year Filigno was named All-Region by the NSCAA, as she earned a spot on the first team last season.
The forward completed her Rutgers career with a solid senior season, notching eight goals and three assists (19 points). Her goal and points totals were good for second on the squad, while she led the team in game-winning goals with five.
Filigno leaves the Scarlet Knights program as one of the most accomplished players in school history. A member of the Canadian National Team, Filigno ends her career in first place with 17 game-winning goals, fourth with 33 goals and 79 points and sixth with 187 shots. Filigno tied the school's single-season goal mark (15) as a junior and set the record for most game-winners in a single-season (seven) that same year.
The Scarlet Knights (13-5-4, 5-3) wrapped up their 2013 campaign by advancing to the first round of the NCAA Tournament. RU eventually fell, 3-0, in a penalty kick shootout with No. 12 West Virginia (Nov. 16), but did not allow a goal in the final 360:99 minutes of the season. The squad also advanced to its first conference championship since 2006, as the team faced No. 17 UCF (Nov. 10) in the American Athletic Conference Championship. The Knights edged RU, 8-7, in nine rounds of PKs.

Morning everyone! Taylor Swift might resemble a mythical being, but she doesn't need magic dust to sweep at this Sunday Grammy Awards. (Unless, of course, some of our prediction posts are correct.) More Grammy goodness later, but for now, let's mix it up:
Did You Hear?
:: Is Taylor Swift a sell-out? An in-depth look at Brand Taylor. [Celebuzz]
:: Did The Black Eyed Peas steal their hit song "Boom Boom Pow" from a song called "Boom Dynamite"? This is "Pants on the Ground/Back Pockets on the Floor" all over again. [Vulture]
:: The TCM channel released its list of the most influential soundtracks of all time, and it inexplicably stops at the year 1977. No Trainspotting? Romeo + Juliet? Pulp Fiction? Magnolia? O Brother Where Art Thou? And nothing by Danny Elfman? Whoever compiled this list needs to change the channel once in a while. [Pop Candy]
:: Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and Will Smith will be part of the star-studded lineup on a "We Are The World" re-recording. Proceeds of the single will be donated to help Haiti. We're hoping for a surprise appearance by Joaquin. [E! Online]
:: Susan Boyle's idol Elaine Paige called the Britain's Got Talent superstar "a virus." [Pop Eater]
Behind the jump: Greed is good. Especially if it's in the form of a 13-year old Top 40 hit.
Music On TV Tonight:
:: Late Show with David Letterman (CBS) – Julian Casablancas (repeat)
:: Last Call with Carson Daly (NBC) – Phoenix
:: Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (CBS) – Corinne Bailey Rae
:: Jimmy Kimmel Live (ABC) – John Mayer
:: Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (NBC) – Ke$ha (repeat)
VIDEO REWIND OF THE DAY: In honor of the Wall Street 2 trailer hitting the web this week, we wanted to highlight a song from the first film's soundtrack. Alas, we didn't feel very inspired to give David Byrne or Kenny G a shout-out in today's mix (sorry, fellas). So instead, we're going with our favorite ode to moolah: "Mo' Money Mo' Problems" by the Notorious B.I.G., featuring Ma$e and Puff Daddy (our favorite of Sean Combs' stage names) dressed as a Tiger Woods-type golfer. Hilarious that back in 1997, Tiger was somebody to emulate. Oh, how times have changed! (More proof of that: Ma$e (Mason Derelle Betha) is now a pastor.)
Have a great day, everyone!

Forum module changes/updates
31 May 2007 at 12:20am Last edited: 31 May 2007 12:27am
Hi all,
Next week I'll be working on the forum module - testing some new additions I made ages ago and possibly implementing some new ones. I'd like to know what people would like to see in the next version of the forum. Currently, there seems to be a lot of differences between our forum and <every other forum out there>. Some of these I believe are better, and some just seem odd and out of place.
IIRC, the forum was initially created for a client of SilverStripe, and thus it has some client-specific features inside it which would probably be better moved outside of the core module...
At any rate, what would you like to see added/changed/removed, and are there any specific bugs that need to be fixed that you've noticed?
Re: Forum module changes/updates
31 May 2007 at 12:28am
One thing I just noticed - sometimes when editing a post and returning to the thread listing, your original post is displayed (aka either SilverStripe or the browser is caching it). You need to refresh to see the updated content.
I'll add this as a Trac ticket tomorrow.

Sorry if I stepping into restricted territory (core team discussions)
Here are some of my suggestions I'd love to have in new Forum module
* Ability to view posts made since my last login or else recent posts irrespective of the category.
* Member only categories (I guess you'd be guessing to lock core team discussion category only for core team members )
* Can we view the whole user list ? I see the recent registered users but not the whole user list
* How about allowing Textile formatting or some HTML for forum posts?

* Increasing security by optionally setting moderator(s) to a particular discussion which will get an email of the post and then can decide if the post is shown or not.
* The user rating system is not really modifiable, this will need to be changed so you can add and remove them.
New Features:
* Signatures?
* Email sent to new user with username and password when they first log in?
My 2 cents

laktek: The reason it's here is so everyone can comment on it and add ideas. Otherwise, it would be posted on our internal wiki or some other hidden place
Regarding your Textile idea - I've implemented some BBCode Parsing, but there's nothing to stop Textile parsing as well. Most other forums use BBCode instead of Textile, so that's why I implemented that one. Contributions are most welcome though

Moreover, I have done some other changes in the CMS part so that, in the security part, you can see the forum member details, save them and export them.
See the following files :
- _config.php in the up module (trunk)
- MemberTableField.php in the cms module (branches 2.0up) : Here the most important change I have done is to change the $data_class value. But it's for the up website. Of course, this change has to be done now from the Forum module.
So the purpose here is to improve the link between Member and ForumMember in the CMS.
If you have some questions about my changes, ask me !

A Note to Students
b. Another common error is that students tend to overlook the fact that the two actions have to be in a cause-and-effect relationship or a before-and-after sequential relationship. Agree.
ûû: Having considerate and loving parents, Mary loves sports and outdoor activities.
Some students tend to think that the function of participle clauses is to incorporate more than one action in a sentence. They fail to realize that the two actions have to have some relationship, as illustrated in the following:
Cause-and-effect relationship: Having considerate parents, she could do whatever she wants. ÖÖ
Sequential relationship: Having locked the door, I went to sleep. I guess.

2014 looks to be another year in the reign of the 29er. What started as a revolution has evolved into the norm. The 29er craze has spread east to west, north to south and everywhere in between. Why you might ask? Well, there are some real tangible benefits from the larger diameter wheel:
The Sortie 29er was inspired by our beloved Sortie 26" platform. Our goal simple: retain ride characteristics of the Sortie trail platform while adding the benefits of a larger diameter wheel. Not a simple task by any means but what we've come up with is a bike that's being hailed as one of the best 29inch bikes on the market. We'll take that!
Diamondback's Design Philosophy is a no-nonsense approach to building quality bicycles. We want our bike designs to be straightforward: their hardware accessible and their suspension simple.
The Sortie29 1 brings affordability to a quality build. Our 6061-T6 Weapons Grade Aluminum frame features a hydroformed top tube, a butted and formed downtube, a seatstay bridge, tapered headtube, a larger 142mm x 12mm vertical drop out and Diamondbacks legendary Knuckle Box Suspension technology.
The Knuckle Box, or bell crank, is the core of our single-pivot four-bar suspension platform. Optimally placed pivots equate to a low leverage ratio, and ultimately to superior pedaling efficiency and small-bump compliance. This also allows the shock to work more efficiently and reduces pedal induced motion. It also reduces overall load on the system which will lead to improved shock and bearing life.
Placing the Knuckle Box low within the frame situates the greatest weight of the bike closer to the bottom bracket. This lowers the bike's center of gravity and allows it to better track and corner.
Wheel-rate is also one of the most significant aspects of a suspension system. Wheel-rate is the effective spring-rate when measured at the wheel. A benefit of our four-bar linkage is increased control over the wheel-rate. Obtaining the spring-rate curves in shocks from Fox is necessary to allowing us to determine the wheel-rate. Working closely with Fox, we're able to optimize the wheel-rate to be linear-to-slightly progressive. This results in superb small-bump compliance, more perceived travel and excellent bottom-out protection. For our Sortie29 1, we've chosen to run a Fox Float CTD Air Shock with Boost Valve. The extra volume "LV" 190×51mm air shock with rebound adjust CTD Pedal Platform On/Off lever provides a feeling of endless travel and plushness like that of a downhill rig, but with XC pedaling efficiency. Dial in climb, trail, or descend mode instantly.
The Sortie29 1 has taken quality componentry and placed it in an economical package… starting with the Fox 32 Float CTD 29 Air 130mm travel fork. This fork comes with an open bath cartridge, rebound, lever actuated lockout, butted alloy tapered 1.5 steerer, 32mm Easton aluminum stanchions, magnesium lowers, and a QR15mm Thru Axle Dropout. For those of you keeping track from last year, yes we've added travel to the fork and yes we've added front end torsional stiffness by going with the 15mm thru axle instead the more standard 9mm quick release; you're welcome!
Complementing Fox's amazing suspension suite on the Sortie29 1 is a stellar Shimano package featuring a Shimano M430 9spd, 3pc, Octalink Crankset (22/32/44t). Shimano M430 Alivio 9spd Rapidfire shifters control the SLX 3×10 front- and SLX 9spd Shadow-type rear derailleurs. We've also included a Shimano HG61 9spd Cassette (11-34t), an HG73 9spd chain, 32h WTB Speed Disc 29 Doublewall rims laced to Diamondback SL-7 alloy hubs (9mm front/135 rear). A set of Shimano M446 Hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm front / 160mm rear rotors provides ample stopping power and a DB AL6061 Ahead stem and DB Lazer Series 31.8mm low rise bar round out the cockpit with comfort and affordability. Diamondback's Lazer Series Micro Adjust 30.9mm seat post and WTB Silverado saddle provide a comfortable and stable riding experience.
Knuckle Box Frame Characteristics:
Tapered Head tube – Today's longer travel forks generate more stress on the head tube. Add in today's more aggressive rider and the need for additional strength in that region becomes imperative. Thus the 2014 Sortie 29er frame is equipped with a tapered head tube for enhanced steering and extra strength.
142×12 mm Thru Axle – Employing Shimano's new 142×12 mm E-Thru design makes for a stiffer and stronger rear-end on the bike.
Single-Sided Hardware – Single-sided oversized heat treated hardware is used for the three main pivot points allows for easy access to your 14 high-quality Enduro Max bearings simply with standard tools. No more removing the crankset to tighten or service your pivots.
Partnership w/ Fox – By providing suspension kinematics early in our design process, Fox is able to custom tune their shock to work precisely with our frames, improving performance.
Knucklebox Technology
LOW AND TIGHT – The Knuckle Box platform was designed specifically to be low and tight:
If you are searching for the ideal full suspension 29er capable of sustained trail climbs or descents, super D's, Enduro's or all day in the saddle XC rides… you just found your bike my friend.
The Sortie29 I is grey and comes in 4 sizes: SM (15.5"), MD (17"), LG (19"), XL (21").
Height must be between 56-79in.
Height must be between 142-201cm.
Based on your input...

Many waited Wednesday afternoon in the Wendt Regional Cancer Center at UnityPoint Health-Finley Hospital in Dubuque for their chance to donate hair for a cause. Wednesday afternoon was Dubuque's 10th year for Locks of Love. At the event, both men and women donated at least 10 inches of hair. That hair will be made into custom-fitted hair prostheses which will be given to children under the age of 21 suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis.
Mike Kelly is the Clinical Director for UnityPoint Health-Finley Hospital's Wendt Regional Cancer Center.
"It's very important for people to have hair prostheses like this because of self image, he said. "They are going through a lot of issues anyhow and the last thing that they want to do is be singled out when they are out and about. This way they can go through their everyday normal life with a head of hair."
This year, 12 different local salons provided these free haircuts to individuals who want to donate their hair to locks of love. Officials with UnityPoint Health-Finley Hospital expect more than 120 total hair donations at Wednesday's event.

Random things
- I went to a Medecins Sans Frontiers information session the other night, and one of the speakers had just come back from southern Sudan. Recently, Sudan has begun exporting oil (you can read more about it here), and are sending a lot of bulldozers out to build roads and set up infrastructure for the wells. The speaker told us that the bulldozers will just doze right through anything in the way - villages, houses etc and she even witnessed, to her horror, small children being crushed by the machinery because they didn't manage to get out of the way in time. I feel sick just thinking about it.
- On a much ligher note, I've started a regular thing of taking Grumbles out for a hot chocolate on a Friday. It's something I'd like to continue until she leaves home (ha, if she lets me!) - a bit of mum/daughter catch up time. I have romantic visions of picking her up from school in a few years time, and us happily gossiping away over steaming hot choccies, and then trundling off to meet the Galumph on his way home from work.
- I've also spent this week making myself a pair of pants, woo hoo! I'm using this pattern, and my goodness me it's coming up a treat! Hopefully I'll get it finished today, and some pics taken on the weekend. I'm particularly enamoured with the green polka dot lining I've done on the yoke. We all need some polka dots in our life, even if they are hidden away.
- I have absolutely no plans whatsoever to watch the Grand Final, and that's the way I like it! Glory in September indeed. Instead I think we'll take a stroll down Lygon St if the weather is nice and indulge in an icecream.

Microsoft is on the verge of finally providing some pieces of software to back up its ambitious plan to integrate its security and identity technologies, but the company admits it is moving slower than it had anticipated.
"It is fair to say that getting this done in non-trivial," says Bob Muglia, president of Microsoft's server and tools business. "It is taking us perhaps a little longer in some areas then we would like, but we are pretty excited about the progress that we are seeing."
[ Microsoft ended its standoff against the SAML 2.0 protocol this week. | Learn how to secure your systems with Roger Grimes' Security Adviser blog and newsletter, both from InfoWorld. ]
The evolution of Microsoft Window
Muglia says Microsoft is in the final test phase with Forefront Identity Manager 2010, which is one foundational element of the security and identity integration. Identity Manager is slated to ship early next year, and was previously known as Identity Lifecycle Manager. "This ties together the identity management across an organization and enables the foundation for security configurations and security policies that run on top," he says.
In April, Microsoft detailed a long-term strategy that will see it combine its identity management efforts with its Forefront security products built for clients, servers and the network edge. Most of the software encompassed in that plan will ship in 2010.
Delays, especially with Identity Manager and a management console for the Forefront suite, appear to be less about a reputation for slipped ship dates and more about ensuring the pieces are solid in order to avoid setbacks that could doom the effort, according to some analysts. Microsoft has little existing reputation as a security company.
"I think Microsoft is trying to do everything it can to take diligent steps to get it as right as it can be to keep the market happy," says Scott Crawford, an analyst with Enterprise Management Associates. "I give them a lot of credit for a very ambitious strategy. It is going to take time."
This week, Microsoft delivered antimalware software for clients in the form of Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE), a free security tool for consumers. The software was a replacement for Microsoft's Live OneCare security service and is as much a testing ground for similar enterprise software as it is a statement that antivirus tools are becoming a commodity.
MSE shares technology with Microsoft's Forefront Endpoint Protection, formerly Forefront Client Security, a centrally managed enterprise desktop security tool.
"They killed off OneCare but not necessarily because it was a failure, but because they wanted to refine their strategy," says Crawford. "They are looking at what they can capitalize on in terms of their enterprise strategy. Forefront is definitely more targeted toward the enterprise, certainly in terms of its alignment with System Center [management tools]."

I like that one and "Cutting It Fine." However, at this point in time, I don't own that album or any Asia album in any format.

P.S. The last song on Astra, "After The War," is definitely one of the best Asia songs. It's overlooked because many people can't get all the way through Side B.

The debut was the first album I ever owned. My sister got it for me (at my request!) for Christmas 1982; age 13.
Still have a soft spot for it.

Its such a long time since I listened to that album and I don't even own a copy anymore and can't even remember the song tbh.
Wetton was still performing during his 90 gigs 'Voice Of America' which is a decent song

I love the debut album because it has strong melodies, powerful playing, great lyrics by mr. Wetton, atmospheric keyboard sounds by mr. Downes, the singing is very good...
Like richardh said: as long as you don't see it as a prog record...
I strongly dislike the second album, have tried one out one of the later albums (I think Aria) and didn't like it at all... so I just stopped exploring their later albums.

Remember, Wetton had been working his ass off for so many years in bands like:
Wishbone Ash
King Crimson
Roxy Music
Uriah Heep
Can you really blame him for wanting to make some money? I sure as hell can't. I really think he's a progger at heart.

I have a picture disc in the 'Asia' logo shape - it's from the 'Alpha' period, and has the best (well, my favourite) track of the entire album in 'True Colours'. 'Astra' made me puke. Even the futuristic Roger Dean Sphinx cover-art was lame. I bought the recent 'XXX' on vinyl - it arrived rather warped so I sent it back and got my refund. I did, however, get to hear it (surprisingly, it didn't jump) - the opening track 'Tomorrow The World' was rather impressive. Hit and miss, I think.

I recall hearing the Asia debut album for the first time in 1982. I was immedately struck with the idea that Howe, Palmer, Wetton, et al, had purposefully mitigated their considerable musical virtuosity for the cynical purpose of constructing a series of MOR songs that would sell a lot of albums. To this day, I have heard nothing that would shake that conviction.

Phoenix (2008)
Check "Parallel Worlds" and "Sleeping Giant / No Way Back", although the latter is basically just an Asia song with an epic intro / outro.

Two EMTs stepped into action to help three people hurt at Layman Family Farms last Friday night after a tractor hauling a flatbed ran into a ditch.
Fortunately, Wendy and Brian Helman, both trained EMTs, were visiting the farm the night of the accident.
The two, along with a fire fighter volunteering on the farm, jumped in a vehicle and rode down to the creek where two teenage girls were trapped under the tractor and wagon and another man had collapsed.
Brian immediately jumped in the creek to help the girls.
"He stayed underneath the tractor the whole time, because one of the patients was a little scared of course, she was pretty emotional and she begged him don't leave, please leave me and he said I'm not going anywhere," explained Wendy.
"[One girl] started crying and said don't let me die and I said that's out of the question," Brian said.
Brian stayed with the girls in the creek for almost two hours until they were free.
SHE SAID: I'm kind of on the fence with "Calvary," between full price and matinee.
