Steve Jobs' Venus: One of the most-talked-about yacht launches this year has undoubtedly been that of Apple boss Steve Jobs' private cruiser. Called Venus, the 260ft yacht was launched in October, a year after Jobs died of cancer. The yacht, whose design was overseen by Jobs and Philippe Starck, is made from aluminum, making it much lighter than other yachts. The wheelhouse has been fitted with seven 27-inch Mac screens that will help steer the uber-sleek vessel.

The set sold 262,000 albums at iTunes in the first day alone, and Red hit #1 on iTunes in 32 locations including the U.K., Australia, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Denmark and Singapore.
Songs from Red took up 13 spots in the top 20 of the iTunes Songs chart with Taylor's duet with Ed Sheeran from the album, "Everything Has Changed," taking the top position.
The deluxe edition of Red is available only at Target, and it's set the record for first day album sales in the stores history. Taylor's last album, Speak Now , holds the record for highest one-week sales at Target, but Red is on track to beat it.

2010 Rolex Submariner Ceramic Bezel
October 6, 2010 | Baselworld, Dive Time, Rolex
Earlier this year, at Baselworld 2010, Rolex unveiled new steel Submariners with the ceramic bezel upgrade, as seen on the gold Submariners last year, and the GMT bezels the year before. Click here for a video of about the ceramic bezel production process. In comparison to aluminum, ceramic is much harder, as well as being extremely resistant to scratching.
The all steel Submariners come with either a green or black ceramic bezel. The green is $7,800 and the black is $7,400. Regardless of which color you choose, the 2010 ceramic bezel steel Submariners will be very collectable, as this is the first year of production. The demand for this particular Rolex is already high, and I've heard they are very hard to get. You may even have to a pay a premium over retail to get one. However, if you do pay a few hundred or even a thousand over MSRP, in the long run, it will more than likely pay off, because it's a Rolex.

Groove Tubes SAG-AX7-MPI Matched Phase Inverter Tube Changing KitThe Groove Tubes SAG-AX7-MPI Matched Phase Inverter Tube Changing Kit consists of specially selected and matched 12AX7 vacuum tubes for critical audio or guitar/bass amplifier use. They're intended primarily for matching the two sides of the triode for phase inverter or driver use.The Groove Tubes AX7 tube is a dual triode where the A and B sides are closely matched for use in critical high end audio applications or for use in the phase inverter or driver position of musical instrument amplifiers.The benefit of this tube in a guitar or bass amplifier is a matched output section. At lower frequencies such as dropped tunings, 7 string guitars, or bass guitars, the upper and lower portions of the output waveform will be much more equal. When this waveform is not equal, differences are cancelled out in the NFB loop of class A/B amplifiers and are noticed as a lack of sustain or apparent "dead spots" in areas of the fret board.At high levels at all frequencies, sustain will be improved. This is even more critical in Class A amplifiers such as the Vox AC-30 and Matchless amplifiers.Use this MPI in any application where a phase inverter / driver of the ECC83/12AX7/7025 tube is specified. The phase inverter / driver position of a guitar or bass amp is a current driving position, and not part of the tone generation stage. These tubes are selected for specific characteristics, so may be a 12AX7R, 12AX7C, 12AX7M or another 12AX7 type that has been selected for specific curve traces as the objective. One can not specify the tube type desired. If you want a specific type matched as an MPI you need to order the tube and then add the SAG labor charge on top of the tube. The stocked MPIs are generally made from 12AX7C, 12AX7R (WC and NOT WA) and the new 12AX7M. Any of these tubes may be supplied as they are matched for specs and vacuum tube curve traces and not for tube type.Use of a 12AT7 in place of a 12AX7 will yield more clean headroom in your output section. The two tube types are interchangable without any adjustment required, so feel free to experiment!Please contact GT SAG directly if you have any questions or specific application requirements.Country of origin: China
Order today with the no-risk assurance of our Total Satisfaction and Low Price Guarantees!
* Price guarantee valid on all new in-stock merchandise sold by an authorized U.S. Dealer. Guarantee does not apply to discontinued, blemished, damaged, closeout, open box, refurbished or auction items. You will be contacted via email shortly after submission of request.

Geoducks Drop to 0-3 with Loss to Albertson College
January 3, 2003
by Devin Jones
Caldwell, ID - For 25 minutes on Friday evening the Geoducks (1-12 overall, 0-3 conference) hung tight with the Albertson Yotes (9-8 overall, 3-0 conference). But Evergreen's cold shooting in the second half allowed Albertson's to pull away and end the game with an 81-54 victory.
Albertson's jumped out to an early 10-point lead against Evergreen, but the Geoducks battled back. Led by Shiante Reed's (Tacoma, WA/ Foss HS) 12 first half points, the Geoducks took a two-point lead midway through the first half.
However, the Yotes went on a run to end the half and walked into the locker room with a 36-28 edge.
The second half started well for Evergreen when Alicia Riddle (Portland, OR/ Polytechnic HS) drained a three at the 18:49 mark, to cut the Yotes lead to 36-31.
The remainder of the game proved to be all Albertson's as they scored the next 17 points of the game, giving the Yotes a 22-point lead. The run finished the Geoducks and the Yotes ended with the victory.
Albertson's had four players score in double figures on the night. Heidi Goicoechea led the Yotes with 19 points on 7-13 shooting. Goicoechea also had seven rebounds for the game.
Kristin Bailey added 13 points (5-9), folowed by Dani Cotterell and Lindsey Karren who each chipped in 10 for the Yotes. Karren also grabbed a game high 12 rebounds.
The Geoducks lone scorer in double figures was Shiante Reed who had a game high 21 points on 10-17 shooting. Alicia Riddle added eight points and Toni Jones (Rock Springs, WY/ Rock Springs HS) scored seven for Evergreen in the loss.
Evergreen will hope to rebound from the loss tomorrow evening when they face Eastern Oregon University in La Grande, Oregon. Game time is at 6:00 p.m.

French in Morocco, and the Russians in Central Asia. Strong evidence has been presented that it was used by the Italians in Abyssinia and the Japanese in China. In the beginning of World War II (WWII), the specter of chemical warfare was again raised by reports of the use of mustard by the Germans and the Poles against each other in 1939 (Medema, 1986; Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, 1971; Tanaka, 1988).
Thus, as engagement of U.S. forces in the European conflict began to look inevitable, preparations against the accompanying threat of chemical attack were given a high priority. These preparations included the establishment of secret research programs to develop better protective clothing for the troops and to investigate ointments and salves that might be effective in reducing the blistering effects of sulfur and nitrogen mustard (collectively termed mustard agents) and Lewisite, an organic arsenic-containing compound that shared some properties with mustard agents (Stewart, 1948).
The researchers involved in these programs, frustrated by the lack of adequate animal models of human injury from these chemicals, decided in 1942 that human subjects were needed for experiments with protective clothing materials and ointments (National Research Council, 1942; Office of Scientific Research and Development, 1946). At several centers around the country, top secret research using military personnel as human subjects was begun. The specific protocols, outlined in more detail in the next chapter, included putting drops of sulfur mustard or Lewisite on subjects' arms, either with or without test ointments, and clothing human subjects in suits impregnated with chemicals designed to retard vapor penetration. These subjects repeatedly entered gas chambers filled with vapors of mustard agents or Lewisite until their skin reddened, an indication that the protection of the clothing was failing.
The fears of chemical attacks in the course of WWII were never realized. Military and civilian personnel were injured by sulfur mustard in Bari, Italy, following a German air raid that destroyed a U.S. ship carrying sulfur mustard bombs (Infield, 1976; Perera and Thomas, 1986). The only other individuals injured by mustard agents and Lewisite in WWII were among those who served as subjects in the experiments or who worked with the agents as part of their military, or sometimes civilian, assignments.
In the early 1980s, reports of such injuries and ensuing health problems began to emerge. This seemingly long delay was due to the highly classified nature of the experiments with chemical warfare agents during WWII. After keeping silent for four decades, a few of the human subjects, believing their exposure to these agents was the cause of numerous debilitating diseases, attempted to seek compensation. As time passed and more information became public, claims by individuals

Feral pigs run hog wild across the US
The feds and some states are fighting an exploding population that wreaks $1.5 billion in damage to crops and livestock each year.
Note to America's feral hogs: It's on. The feds and some state governments, fed up with your harming livestock, trashing crops and endangering humans, are out to get you.
The issue of feral swine -- some of them weighing in at 300 pounds and more -- tearing up crops has been a concern for years in many Southern states. It's also spawned some popular cable TV reality shows about folks who hunt wild hogs for fun and profit.
But it's not a matter of fun and games for the ag sector's bottom line. The New York Times says the wild pig population in the U.S. has exploded since the 1990s -- with "established populations" of about 6 million pigs in 38 states and swine sightings in nine more.
Feral hogs are to blame for more than $1.5 billion each year in agricultural damage. And the problem has become so serious, according to The Times, that the Department of Agriculture is requesting an additional $20 million in next year's budget -- targeted specifically at stopping the pigs.
Wild hogs are a far cry from the cute pigs you might see down at the petting farm, in both size and temperament. While some have ancestors that may have escaped from domestic captivity, others are descendants of Russian wild boars and other invasive species -- thought to have gotten away from game ranches or hunters who brought them in for sport. They also carry a variety of diseases.
And while most of the hogs are very shy, there have been numerous reports of them attacking people. In fact, according to the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension website, "U.S. newspapers report from five to seven human fatalities each year" from such encounters. That puts the hogs among some dangerous company: Shark attacks accounted for seven deaths worldwide in 2012, according to the University of Florida.
Damage caused by the estimated 2 million feral hogs in Texas alone costs about $52 million in agricultural losses annually. The Lone Star State has budgeted $7 million this year toward the problem.
Texas also allows year-round hunting, trapping and snaring of the wild hogs in an effort to control the population. Some guides even take tourists on nighttime "safaris," hunting the swine using night-vision goggles.
"For us it's just numbers," Jeb Dreher, co-owner of an operation called Tactical Hog Control, told KHOU-TV. "The more we harvest, or exterminate, whatever word you want to use, the better chances we have of keeping the numbers in check."
Even though I posted this to Alex's comments, I'd like to post as a separate comment:
Alex: the Pittman-Robertson Act of 1937 and signed into law by FDR puts an excise tax on all sales of Firearms and Ammunition. (Just think of all the money it has been collecting since Obama came into office. He being the best firearms salesman the world has ever seen.)
All money goes to the Secretary of the Interior and NOT the general fund (otherwise it would go to buy votes for Obama).
If a State has a project they want money for, they submit a proposal to the Secretary. If it is given the go ahead, the State does the work and pays for everything, then gets reimbursed 75% of the cost by the Feds. The other 25% comes out of the funds the states get for Hunting licenses, etc.
Sportsman are the reason most animals have come back from extinction as the Pittman-Robertson money has been applied to many different projects over the years. I read once where Aldo Leopold had said if you allow limited hunting of endangered species, you'd have all the money you would need for their restoration. If that is true, then he indeed was the "Father of Conservation".
Thank you Alex for your comments allowing us to set the record straight.

It can feel like a pain shooting down your back into your buttock or leg. It can be an ache that starts in your neck and radiates into your shoulder, arm or hand. In younger people, the pain is often due to a herniated disc. In older individuals, progressive disc deterioration can lead to arthritis and spinal stenosis, a narrowing of the spinal column which can pinch the spinal cord and nerves. From ages 20 to 100, no one is immune from discogenic problems, those diseases that start in the discs.
What is a disc, anyway?
Discs are the cushion-like structures sitting between each of our approximately 24 vertebrae, the bony structures that comprise our spinal column and are the main supporting structures for our bodies. The column is divided into the cervical spine (the neck), the thoracic spine (mid-back), and the lumbar spine (lower back). This bony structure of shock-absorbing vertebrae, discs, muscles and ligaments protects our precious spinal cord. The spinal cord is where electro-chemical signals travel to and from our brains to control movement, and bladder and bowel function.
The right diagnosis
Gerald Hayken, MD, chief of orthopaedics, Virtua Memorial Hospital, explains: "Depending where on the spinal column the disc is injured will determine the kind of pain a person will experience. Most disc abnormalities are located in the lumbar spine and create a combination of buttock pain, leg numbness, cramping and weakness. Before treating any patient, we first take a detailed medical history, perform a physical exam, and may do tests including x-ray and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies."
If a disc is herniated or bulging, it may be pressing on a nerve, which is called nerve root compression. For example, if a disc is pressing on a nerve in the lumbar spine, a patient will probably experience pain commonly called sciatica.
Conservative treatment first
"Unless the patient is in excruciating, life-altering pain, we first start with the most conservative treatments. These include rest, anti-inflammatory medications, analgesics, oral steroids and physical therapy. If the patient is still in pain after a few weeks of conservative care, we might consider an epidural or a nerve-root bloc. Surgery is usually our last option, as it would be for most problems," explains Dr. Hayken.
Orin Atlas, MD, Virtua orthopaedic surgeon adds: "We always treat the patient, not just the radiographic finding - the finding on an imaging study. For example, about one-third of people in their 30s may have some degenerative changes in their disc space, but this does not necessarily mean they will have symptoms. Surgery is only warranted when more conservative treatment fails or the pain significantly disrupts someone's lifestyle."
Nearly 85% of people will have back and neck problems at some point
As people age, osteoporosis can cause a progressive loss of bone quality and quantity, which can lead to a vertebral compression fracture — a fracture of the bone at the front of the vertebrae. This serious problem causes chronic pain, loss of mobility and independence, and compromised respiratory function. Dr. Atlas explains a new, minimally invasive surgical technique to correct the problem: "Kyphoplasty (ki-fo-plasty) is a procedure where the surgeon needs to make only a minimal incision. He opens the fractured vertebrae with a surgical instrument, and fills the void created by the fracture with surgical cement. This technique stabilizes the fracture and provides dramatic pain relief, a 90% success rate in terms of pain resolution."

Beirut • With a second airstrike against Syria in four months, Israel enforced its own red line of not allowing game-changing weapons to reach Lebanon's Hezbollah, a heavily armed foe of the Jewish state and an ally of President Bashar Assad's regime, Israeli officials said Saturday.
But the strike, which one official said targeted a shipment of advanced surface-to-surface missiles, also raised new concerns that the region's most powerful military could be dragged into Syria's civil war and spark a wider conflagration.
Obama says he won't comment on Israeli airstrike
San Jose, Costa Rica » President Barack Obama says he won't comment on an Israeli airstrike against Syria that targeted a shipment of advanced missiles believed to be headed for the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.
Israeli officials on Saturday confirmed the strike, which took place early Friday.
Obama told the Spanish-language network Telemundo in an interview that he will defer to the Israeli government for comment. He also repeated his view that the Israelis justifiably have to guard against the transfer of advanced weapons to organizations like Hezbollah. The U.S. considers Hezbollah a terrorist organization.
Obama conducted the interview Saturday, and a portion of the president's answer to a question about the airstrike was broadcast on MSNBC.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Fighting has repeatedly spilled across Syria's borders into Turkey, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan and the Israeli-annexed Golan Heights during more than two years of conflict, while more than 1 million Syrians have sought refuge in neighboring countries.
The airstrike, which was carried out early Friday and was confirmed by U.S. officials, comes as Washington considers how to respond to indications that the Syrian regime may have used chemical weapons in its civil war. President Barack Obama has described the use of such weapons as a "red line," and the administration is weighing its options — including possible military action.
Israel has said it wants to stay out of the brutal Syria war, but could inadvertently be drawn in as it tries to bolster its deterrence and prevent sophisticated weapons from flowing from Syria to Hezbollah or other extremist groups.
Israel and Hezbollah fought a monthlong war in mid-2006 that ended in a stalemate.
Israel believes Hezbollah has restocked its arsenal with tens of thousands of rockets and missiles, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly stated the Jewish state would be prepared to take military action to prevent the Islamic militant group from obtaining new weapons that could upset the balance of power.
It is especially concerned that Hezbollah will take advantage of the chaos in neighboring Syria and try to smuggle advanced weapons into Lebanon. These include anti-aircraft missiles, which could hamper Israel's ability to operate in Lebanese skies, and advanced Yakhont missiles that are used to attack naval ships from the coast.
While Israeli officials on Saturday portrayed the latest airstrike as the continuation of Israel's deterrence policy, more Israeli attacks could quickly lead to an escalation, leaving open the possibility of retaliation by Hezbollah or even the Assad regime and Syria ally Iran.
In January, Israeli aircraft struck a shipment of what was believed to be Russian-made SA-17 anti-aircraft missiles bound for Hezbollah, according to U.S. officials. Israeli officials have strongly hinted they carried out the airstrike, though there hasn't been formal confirmation.
Neither Hezbollah nor Syria responded to that strike.
In a warning to Israel earlier this week, Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah said his militia "is ready and has its hand on the trigger" in the event of an Israeli attack on any targets in Lebanon.
Details about Friday's strike remained sketchy.
The U.S. officials said the airstrike apparently hit a warehouse, but gave no other details.
Israeli officials did not say where in Syria the Israeli aircraft struck or whether they fired from Lebanese, Syrian or Israeli airspace.
Israel possesses bombs that can travel a long distance before striking their target. The use of such weapons could allow Israel to carry out the attack without entering Syrian skies, which would risk coming under fire from the regime's advanced, Russian-made anti-aircraft defenses.
The Israeli and U.S. officials spoke anonymously because they had not been given permission to speak publicly about the matter.
Obama said Saturday it was up to Israel to confirm or deny any strikes, but that the U.S. coordinates very closely with Israel.
"The Israelis, justifiably, have to guard against the transfer of advanced weaponry to terrorist organizations like Hezbollah," Obama told the Spanish-language TV station Telemundo.
The Syrian government said it had no information on an Israeli attack, while Hezbollah and the Israeli military spokesman's office declined comment.
Amos Gilad, an Israeli defense official, would not confirm or deny the airstrike, but played down cross-border tensions.Next Page >

| Article I
In his conduct while President of the United States, William Jefferson Clinton, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has willfully corrupted and manipulated the judicial process of the United States for his personal gain and exoneration, impeding the administration of justice, in that:
On August 17, 1998, William Jefferson Clinton swore to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth before a Federal grand jury of the United States. Contrary to that oath, William Jefferson Clinton willfully provided perjurious, false and misleading testimony to the grand jury concerning one or more of the following: (1) the nature and details of his relationship with a subordinate Government employee; (2) prior perjurious, false and misleading testi mony he gave in a Federal civil rights action brought against him; (3) prior false and misleading statements he allowed his attorney to make to a Federal judge in that civil rights action; and (4) his corrupt efforts to influence the testimony of witnesses and to impede the discovery of evidence in that civil rights action.
In doing this, William Jefferson Clinton has undermined the integrity of his office, has brought disrepute on the Presidency, has betrayed his trust as President, and has acted in a manner subversive of the rule of law and justice, to the manifest injury of the people of the United States.
Wherefore, William Jefferson Clinton, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States.

In Schiphol, Noord-Holland, The Netherlands.
I've been looking at plane tickets and luxury hotels at insane prices for the past 5 hours. I love finding the best travel options almost as much as I love actually travelling. Still, I can't stop talking about travelling. I just lay it all out there for Emilia who has to listen to all my plans. El Clásico in Madrid, shooting parkour videos in Tokyo, being with someone I adore in a warmer climate, partying with ex-pats and practicing (not-so) foreign languages.
Still. My travel-planning went from me booking romantic trips to Bali to me booking trips for anyone, anytime to anywhere. Finding out where the cheapest but tastiest foods are in the world. Looking for the fanciest apartments at the lowest rates in Bangkok. Seeing which means of transportation is the best from Tokyo to Osaka.
There is a pile of dictionaries on the floor. Staring at me. Mocking me. What with their fancy colors and their deeper understanding of formal Japanese. Bah. Swahili-test went well though. Got everything right, except for "these, those, this, that". But I'm bad at "these, those, this, that" in ALL languages – so no worries there. Except for the fact that my brain might be missing some function required to understand the structure of "these, those, this, that".
And I might also have above-average levels of thyroxine. I'm going to bed now, you know it's time to call it a day when you're blogging about your hormone-levels.

Q: Where do we skateboard by day, take a break-dancing class by evening and roller-disco into the wee hours?
A: Hmm, there's really only one place we know of, and it's Bristol's very own Motion. This ad hoc After Hours Athletes' village is at the heart of Bristol's underground scene, a cavernous fortress of good times concealed within a series of repurposed canal-side warehouses.
After-hours Bristol has always been a beat-making city of play that thinks outside the dance floor, and Motion carries that torch in a truly full-service way. First conceived as the city's only indoor skate park in 1996, the Motion team started out with little more than a fantastic space and a vision for taking the party off the ramp and into the club. Soon, founder Tom Kilford expanded the venture to include private parties and massive club nights. But oh, the heavy lifting! The team had to dismantle and assemble the giant skate ramps every time they hosted a party in the giant main space (and seeing as they partied every weekend, that was a whole lot of manual labour).
Never ones to let logistics ruin a good party, the Motion crew went about acquiring the surrounding empty warehouses. Now, the giant skate park lives permanently in one end, leaving plenty of space for other AHA-approved activities. Such as? Well, we guess that depends who you are and what you're looking for…
Skater? BMX'er? Hit up their massive half pipes and ramps. Break-dancer? Drop in to a popping and locking class hosted by their resident breakdance crew, Break in Motion. Good (or bad) dancer? Groove the night away to some of Europe's best DJs. Hungry? Yes, us too, so fuel up at the resident burger bar and crave-worthy street food carts outside. Sweaty? Cool off by the canal-side patios before jumping back into the madness.
For those Bristolians looking to get a dose of Motion in the near future, be on the lookout for the next 'Bump' roller disco on 26 April as well as the recurring In:Motion series featuring world-class DJs. So grab your kicks and come play at one of the largest After Hours Athlete playgrounds in Europe, nestled right within our little city that knows how to party.

After a day of scattered thunderstorms, the courts dried up and the lights came on and the best one-on-one basketball players from Ft. Bliss competed in Red Bull King of the Rock Qualifier. Fifty active duty military personnel played to earn a spot to compete in the Finals at The Rock - Alcatraz. Caleb Hunter, a 6' 1" baller from Harlem, NY, and a Military Intelligence Officer at Fort Bliss, took the top prize and earned his trip to The Rock to compete for the "King" title.
In 2010, Red Bull King of the Rock went down in history as the first official sporting event ever to be held on Alcatraz and the first time basketball had been played on The Rock since the inmates left the island over 50 years ago. Now in its third year, the global one-on-one basketball tournament returns with the most competitive field to date. Bigger and better than ever, Red Bull King of the Rock has expanded to qualifiers in 25 countries, including 32 in the United States. From these qualifiers, 64 finalists will head to the island to put it all on the line in The Yard on Alcatraz on September 22. International qualifiers will take place in the following countries: Dominican Republic, Georgia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, United Arab Emirates, Czech Republic, Germany, Lithuania, Slovak Republic, Austria, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Jamaica, Italy, Romania, Serbia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Spain, Turkey, Brazil, Canada and Ukraine.
Competing in the evening desert heat forced players to pace themselves, and the one-on-one format took its toll, causing players to run out of steam as they advanced through the rounds. The wind picked up, making outside shots especially difficult. In the Final Game, Caleb was matched up against Jeff Anderson a 6' 4" post player. Jeff employed the tactic he'd been relying on all day – an extremely physical style of play that emphasized his size and strength as primary offensive weapons. Caleb countered with quickness and accuracy from behind the arc. But in order to stop the sheer power of Jeff, Caleb made it rain "3's" and will try to continue his reign at the finals.
"The competition was tough here today and I know for a fact that I will need to hit the gym everyday to work on my jumper if I am going to be a good rep for Ft Bliss come September 22." said Hunter.
Both the qualifiers and finals will incorporate a regular one-on-one basketball set-up where players go head-to-head on an outdoor court using a single elimination tournament bracket.
There are only two options: win and continue on, or lose and go home. Games will last five minutes and be subject to regulation hoops rules and scoring (two and three pointers). Winners will move to the next court to face another player, so while pure hoops ability is essential, strategy and endurance will also play a major role in overall victory. Players have to be tough to make it to The Rock, but must also play smart, as five fouls equals an automatic loss. Qualifiers will contain four intense half-court games going on simultaneously, until all eyes are on the final game.
Red Bull King of the Rock is open to amateurs and pros alike, however players must be 16 years of age or older to participate. Participants under the age of 18 will need to have a parent or guardian present to sign a waiver at the qualifier. Registration is first come first served at each qualifier, so players should arrive early to grab one of the coveted 64 spots.
Red Bull teamed up with Li-Ning, Skull Candy, 24 Hour Fitness, Dime Magazine, Ft. Bliss MWR, Casa Ford, B.O.S.S. and the USAA for the Ft. Bliss Qualifier.
Through the Red Bull network, hi-res video and still images are captured and made immediately available for editorial use for all media channels including television, film, print, mobile, and digital. The content is centrally located in the Red Bull Content Pool for media partners at www.redbullcontentpool.com.

A Few Details On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

Red Hat
1 Comment
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4
was just released, but Red Hat engineers have already been working on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 and today a few details regarding this next major feature release were learned during the Red Hat Summit in Chicago. Details regarding RHEL 6.0 are scant, especially with Red Hat being a public company and all, but some new information was gained today and some signals of what's coming down the pipe can already be spotted in Fedora.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 will feature improved power management, a broader system framework, many virtualization enhancements, greater optimizations for large scale deployments, improved manageability, more work on desktop environments, and a big emphasis on performance. There's nothing too specific, but it was learned from different Red Hat sessions today along with speaking to different employees. The improved power management for RHEL 6.0 should come as no surprise since several Red Hat engineers have been working on improving upstream power management for some months, including efforts to
reduce GPU power
. Virtualization is a very big topic at this year's Red Hat Summit in Chicago and it will be carried through into RHEL 6.0. The Kernel-based Virtual Machine was just included with RHEL 5.4, but it seems that in the 6.0 release it will really become Red Hat's flagship virtualization option. Xen will remain an option in RHEL 6.0, but it appears as if Red Hat will be throwing nearly all of their weight behind KVM.
More information is on the way,

St Lucia
St Lucia
Even in the urban wilds of Brooklyn, there may be no one else like Jean-Philip Grobler, otherwise known as St. Lucia.
Originally from Johannesberg, South Africa, Jean grew up performing with the Drakensberg Boys Choir School. When the choir wasn't traveling—St. Lucia toured Japan, Australia, Europe, the US and more—they stayed in an enclave tucked in the South African mountains, learning everything from Bach and minimalist opera to African War Songs and Celine Dion.
A young musician could hardly find better training, but as a young teenager, he started to feel that he'd had his fill of classical music, and it felt like an epiphany when he discovered the music of Radiohead. "In South Africa, we used to be quite limited in what we were exposed to in terms of experimental music, and so hearing OK Computer for the first time was like experiencing a completely new Universe. I think it was also my own little form of rebellion against the rigidity of choir life', he laughs. Eventually, he left the creative "small pond" of South Africa for England, where he spent three years studying music in Liverpool.

Liquid Diet (cont.)

- Are liquid diets used for medical purposes?

Do Liquid Diets Really Work?
Liquid diets contain a reduced -- and often significantly reduced -- number of calories. If you eat fewer calories than you burn off, you will lose weight. However, that weight loss may be short-lived. When you drastically reduce the amount of calories you consume, your metabolism slows to conserve energy. Unless you change your eating habits, you'll gain back the weight as soon as you return to your old diet.
Some liquid diets work better over the long term than others. Researchers have found that diets that include both food and liquids can help overweight people control the number of calories they eat with liquid meals and help keep the weight off for several years.
As for the claim by some liquid diets that they can 'detoxify' the system by cleansing it of impurities, there is no evidence to prove it. The body, say experts, is a very sophisticated machine that has its own system of detoxifying through the liver and sweat.
How Safe Are Liquid Diets?
Ideally, liquid diet drinks should contain a balance of nutrients you need throughout the day, but that isn't always the case. Very low-calorie diets (400-800 calories per day) in particular can be lacking in these nutrients and should only be used under medical supervision. Missing out on essential nutrients can lead to side effects such as fatigue, dizziness, hair loss, gallstones, cold intolerance, electrolyte imbalance, and heart damage. A lack of fiber in your diet from not eating whole fruits and vegetables can lead to constipation and other digestive ailments. You also can lose lean body mass if you don't get enough protein in your liquid diet.

Most people think about the sanctuary of Delphi as the seat of the famous oracle and of Olympia as the site of the Olympic games. The oracle and the games, however, were but two of the many activities ongoing at both sites. This book investigates the physical remains of both sanctuaries to show how different visitors interacted with the sacred spaces of Delphi and Olympia in an important variety of ways during the archaic and classical periods. It highlights how this fluid usage impacted upon, and was itself affected by, the development of the sanctuary space and how such usage influenced the place and relationship of these two sites in the wider landscape. As a result, it argues for the re-evaluation of the roles of Delphi and Olympia in the Greek world and for a re-thinking of the usefulness of the term 'panhellenism' in Greek politics, religion and culture.Read more
- First full engagement in English with the archaeological material for the sanctuaries of Delphi and Olympia
- Presumes no previous archaeological expertise and clearly explains and analyses all the archaeological evidence presented
- Provides the first full chronological maps of the sanctuary of Delphi to be published, and the first chronological table of monumental dedications at Delphi
Reviews & endorsements
"It is the particular merit of [the book that it] has turned to the archaeology, monuments, dedications and buildings of these sanctuary sites to test the nature of panhellenism as it changed over the archaic and classical periods." --TLS

Teachers and Technology: Ripped from the Headlines
Dozens of teachers across the U.S. and Canada have been reprimanded, suspended and even fired for legal, personal activities away from work. The following stories revolve around the content of teachers' Flickr, YouTube, Facebook and MySpace accounts. Each teacher was confronted with content that parents, students or administrators felt was inappropriate, and in each case the teacher was reprimanded, suspended or fired.
Charlotte, N.C.
An elementary school teacher in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School District posted on Facebook that "I'm teaching in the most ghetto school in Charlotte." The teacher was suspended. Four other teachers were also reprimanded for content on their Facebook accounts.
Austin, Texas
A high school art teacher in the Austin Independent School District was fired for photos that appeared on her Flickr account that were deemed indecent by her school's administrators.
Windner, Ga.
A high school teacher in the Barrow County School District was fired when a student told school officials that the teacher's Facebook page included photos of the teacher drinking beer and wine while traveling in Europe and a reference to language that the principal deemed indecent.
Beaver Dam, Wis.
A middle school teacher in the Beaver Dam School District was suspended after photos of her pointing a rifle at the camera appeared on her Facebook profile.
Bangor, Mich.
A high school teacher in the Bangor School District was suspended after she commented on her Facebook profile that she "wants to kill her ninth-grade flute player who stole the school's $900 dollar piccolo and is denying it."
Lusby, Md.
A middle school teacher in the Calvert County School District was suspended after she attacked her students and their parents, saying: "Why are teachers, the government, the school system, the FCC, and everyone and their mother (except the mothers and fathers) taking responsibility to teach the kids respect, accountability, responsibility, etc…. When the [expletive] did parents decide that their kids are not responsible for anything they do?"
Richmond, Va.
A high school art teacher in the Chesterfield County School District was suspended after displaying photos of paintings of nude models on YouTube.
Ansonia, Conn.
A high school teacher in the Ansonia School District was fired after his principal determined that he had engaged in unprofessional communication with students via his MySpace profile. The teacher sued the school—SPANIERMAN V. HUGHES, No. 06-1196 (D. Conn. Sept. 16, 2008)—and the U.S. District Court of Connecticut determined that:
It is reasonable for the Defendants [Connecticut Department of Education] to expect the Plaintiff, a teacher with supervisory authority over students, to maintain a professional, respectful association with those students. This does not mean that the Plaintiff could not be friendly or humorous; however, upon review of the record, it appears that the Plaintiff would communicate with students as if he were their peer, not their teacher. Such conduct could very well disrupt the learning atmosphere of a school, which sufficiently outweighs the value of Plaintiff's MySpace speech.
Millersville, Pa.
A teaching candidate was denied her degree when her school became aware of postings on her MySpace profile that included a picture of her in which she is seen drinking and wearing a pirate hat. The teaching candidate sued her college—SNYDER v. MILLERSVILLE UNIVERSITY, No. 07-1660 (E.D. Pa. Dec. 3, 2008)—and lost. The U.S. District Court that heard the case decided that the teacher candidate's right to free speech was not violated when the school denied her a degree based on her MySpace page.
Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.
A middle school teacher for St. John's County School District was fired when the principal became aware of inappropriate messages on his MySpace page.
Pearl, Miss.
A student is suing a teacher and coach for being forced to share the contents of her Facebook profile. The coach required all members of the cheerleading squad to provide usernames and passwords for their Facebook and MySpace accounts. The coach claimed it was to ensure the cheerleaders were not drinking or violating the team's code of conduct. The coach read a personal correspondence between two members of the squad that included profanity. The coach then forwarded the correspondence to other staff and school administrators.
Phoenix, Ariz.
A Phoenix area CBS News television station investigated new teachers' MySpace and Facebook profile pages looking for potentially embarrassing content.
Vancouver, British Columbia
A principal was suspended, though not fired, when a nude photo from his family's summer vacation was posted to his Facebook profile.
School Districts, State Legislatures and Teachers' Unions Respond
Due to the increasing frequency of issues surrounding Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, etc. school districts, state legislatures and teachers unions have increasingly seen it necessary to weigh in on the subject.
School Districts
A Missouri school district banned teachers from being "friends" with their students on Facebook. Other districts require documentation of all online interaction between students and teachers. School districts are increasingly issuing codes of conduct to regulate what they regard as unacceptable communication.
State Legislatures
A Louisiana law now requires school districts to implement a policy requiring documentation of every electronic interaction between teachers and students through a nonschool-issued devise. Similar policies are already in place in many school districts across the country.
Teachers' Unions
Ohio and Missouri Education Associations recommend to their members that teachers not join social networking sites.
