September – December 2014
Official Selection, Sundance Film Festival 2014
A strange singer with "god given talent" drifts through the mythic city of Memphis under its canopy of ancient oak trees, shattered windows, and burning spirituality. Surrounded by lovers, legends, hustlers, preachers, and a wolfpack of kids, the unstable performer avoids the recording studio and is driven to spend time in his own form of self-discovery. Shown in fragments, his journey drags him from love and happiness right to the edge of another dimension. Featuring an explosive performance and score from the singular recording artist-cum-wizard, Willis Earl Beal, MEMPHIS is a film steeped in folklore, music, surrealism, and the abstract search for glory.
It is legend in Memphis that a blessed and cursed singer by the name of O.V. Wright fell from grace and was buried in an unmarked grave. I learned of his myth around the same time I was brought to Peace Baptist Church, and witnessed a deep spirituality as ancient as the oak trees that dress every street in the city. A true believer in ghost stories and a scholar of African American studies, I was drawn to tell my own folk tale, and there was only one place on my mind. Our film captures the descent of a troubled singer as he drifts through an urban landscape looking to save his very soul. We surrounded ourselves with real Memphians and made a film that hopes to project a cool, beautiful world – as old as dirt and yet entirely new, and deserved of the title MEMPHIS.
Written and Directed by Tim Sutton.

Welcome to the Synesthesia Film Festival!
This is a once a night monthly film festival that screens independent short films, student films, web series, documentaries, music videos, experimental films and animations from around the world.
The goal is to bring an eclectic mix of media and filmmakers together to mingle, share ideas, and collaborate on future projects.
The screening night starts at 6:30 PM in the lobby where the filmmakers, writers, producers, directors, actors, and editors of the short films can get to know each other.
Then the show begins at 7:00 PM and ends at 9:00 PM, followed by a short Q&A with the key filmmakers.
Afterparty at 9:30 PM down the street at a local bar or restaurant where we will tally up the scores and announce the winners of the Audience Choice Awards.
The subject of Somali pirates still strikes fear in the hearts of us Westerners, for it's all a landscape that's totally different than anything we could possibly know about. Shot in East Africa using first-time Somali actors, Fishing Without Nets ls the mesmerizing, sobering story of the region's bandits from the Somali point-of-view. In Somalia, principled, young husband and father Abdi turns to piracy to support his family. While his wife and child wait for him in Yemen, an outdated and fragile satellite phone is his only connection to all he truly values. Here (in Sundance 2014′s winner for the Directing Award, U.S. Dramatic), debut feature filmmaker Cutter Hodierne combines the epic cinematic vision of a glorious action thriller with the intimate, textured qualities of an arthouse film, humanizing the pirates by bringing us inside their moral dilemmas and gut-wrenching struggles.

"You already know the importance of saving a language. You know the reason, but not the motivation to save it," admits Anchi Chen, one of the collaborators for TONGUES OF HEAVEN. With 96% of the world's population speaking only 4% of the world's languages, what does it mean today to speak your mother tongue?
To put it another way, what do you lose when you lose your native language? Using video as the primary medium of expression, four young indigenous women from the Austronesian language territories Taiwan and Hawai'i share their questions, desires and challenges of learning their native languages.

In Japan, beautiful pop pin-up Idols rule the music scene. Frustrated in her dreams of being a star in Tokyo, Rui ended up a hostess in a provincial bar. When her former rival Momoko returns home a successful Idol singer, Rui flips out and kills her and the rest of her pop group. In order to hide the crime, she and her friends take the dead girls' place, creating BiS (Brand-new Idol Society). But when a mad scientist reanimates Momoko as a half-robot half zombie, she retaliates on the new starlets and their fans. A strikingly original part-horror, part-comedy, part-music-video starring one of Japan's freshest pop sensations. (in Japanese with English subtitles)
Once, Rui has aimed at a singer. However, now, she was frustrated and was doing the hostess's work in the country. When Rui goes home together with a friend's Tsunko, She met Momoko, the rival at the time of her having aimed as a singer. Momoko became an idol singer and was successful.

The land has withered into something wretched. The dust has settled on a lonely, barren planet. The hardened survivors of the loss of Earth's precious resources scrape and struggle. Ernest Holm lives on this harsh frontier with his children. He defends his farm from bandits, works the supply routes, and hopes to rejuvenate the soil.

I heard Mizue is making animation. How exciting! I can't wait to see!!
—Darren Aronofsky (Black Swan)
Internationally Noteworthy, Japanese Animation Creator : Mirai Mizue! His works have been screened and judged at many international film festivals and he continues to forge the future of the Japanese independent animation scene. Since 2002, he has been creating abstract animations, known as his 'cell animations', in which cell structures form the central motif.
In 2011, Modern No.2 was nominated to the Orizzonti section at the Venice Film Festival and to the Spectrum section at the Rotterdam International Film Festival, enthralling audiences with its vivid colors and dynamic, delicate movements synchronized with music. In 2012, Modern No.2 won the SACEM Award for Original Music Prize at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival, the world's biggest animation festival. With his vast experience and boundless energy, Mizue is in his prime as a filmmaker.
In "WONDER FULL!!", a film that Mirai selected and joined some films from his works himself will be screened.
Director's statements
Getting this pleasant opportunity to show many of my films first time, I take into account of the order, music and screen size of my works since 2003 to make those like one long-animation film. I believe it will help you to enjoy and understand all films naturally and smoothly.
(As life and death is never-ending and have existed since extremely long time ago, it is probably just one tiny piece what I can feel.)
Our body is composed of over 60 trillion cells. Surprisingly, it is way much more than the number of all stars in the solar system. Needless to say, each of our cells is alive and both life and death take place for each cell again and again and again until our lives will end. The world is always full of WONDER.
If you feel wonder, miracle, surprise, and a mass of happiness through my masterpiece, I am very much satisfied.
■Modern No. 2 –We went for it without any hesitation. We've formed the world at a quickening pace. What on earth is this world that we have created?
■JAM– The sound is piled up. The image is piled up as well. Before long, the screen becomes chaotic.
■Minamo– Made by a frame-by-frame shooting of ink streaming on the surface of water.
■FANTASTIC CELL– This animation is Mirai Mizue's debut film.vThe birth of 'cell animations'.
■METROPOLIS– This film was requested from the Seoul International Cartoon And Animation Festival, and produced for the appeal of Seoul City, South Korea.
■TATAMP– Each living object has its own sound.a Thus the sounds varied when there are more living objects. It becomes chaotic, and at the same time, melodic.
■TRIP! TRAP!– An expression of a chaotic world. A mixture of different techniques.Graduation film.
■MODERN– The hexahedron keeps changing shape. Besides, anything doesn't happen.
■LOST UTOPIA– The tale of the Biblical Adam and Eve is used as the motif in this anthropomorphic phantasmagoria of animated images.
■DEVOUR DINNE– Various dinners made with different living things…
■Adamski– A subjective view of an UFO. Shot frame-by-frame along the Tama River.
■Playground– An improvisation that combines several images: the innocent world-view of a child, the continuousness of life, order and chaos, unity and division and the real streaming world.
■AND AND– It is born. It dies. They repeat. The mandala of a life. Hypnotic patterns by Mirai Mizue for Toru Matsumoto's And And.
Mirai Mizue Director/Animator
He was born in Tokyo, 1981. People around him was surprised by his drawing a perfect circle when he was three. He started making animation by himself when someone told him that his illustrations looked like it was moving in his study at the Department of Graphic Design, Tama Art University.

The short animated films he made has been always beloved around the world.

Work resumes at the water plant in Davenport
May 01, 2013
After a two week flood delay, construction workers have resumed building permanent flood protection for the Iowa American Water treatment plant in Davenport. Construction of the concrete flood wall began about one-and-a-half years ago. The plant treats water for most of Scott County including LeClaire.
Mark Pratt, from the Corps of Engineers, says about 75 percent of the project has been completed, including most of the 2-thousand-foot wall and a small section of levee. He and the construction workers have been learning a lot about the history of the site, which is located just west of the Village of East Davenport. "There's a lot of old pipes and sewer mains that we have to check and see if they're still connected or abandoned."
When the Mississippi began rising a couple of weeks ago, the crew was working in a deep hole between the river and the water treatment plant. So Pratt says they switched gears and built a temporary dike with Hesco baskets.
The federal government is paying for three-quarters of the 11 million dollar cost. The city and Iowa American Water Company are paying the rest.

ACE ONE is the latest generation of DJI's GPS/INS based helicopter autopilot system that combines the highest level of precise measurements and environment-independent rate of INS updates. ACE ONE's exceptional performance enables it for applications from commercial use, such as industrial aerial photography, to high-end military operations.
It works on all kinds of helicopters. Bi-blade or tri-blade rotorcraft; with or without flybar; all kinds of swash plates and rotor heads; electric or gasoline powered engines.
Anyone can install the ACE ONE quickly and easily.
Easy Installation
No need to install external frames and dampers, unlike with the previous designs of XP3.1 series. It minimizes size, reduces weight and simplifies installation, and thus the system can be installed on a much larger scale of helicopter models, while providing customers more options for physical installation.
Enhanced Fail-Safe
Enhanced fail-safe is the feature to ensure that the helicopter will hover automatically when it loses RC signal. After loss of signal for a certain length of time, ACE ONE will calculate the safest route to the home position and control the helicopter to return home, hovering over your GPS start point eventually. This feature will guarantee the safety of your expensive payloads and equipment on the platform.
Precise Hovering With the support of ACE ONE, your helicopter will be able to hover precisely with fixed latitude, longitude and altitude; even in strong wind, the hovering range will be limited to a very small area. With the help of ACE ONE, you will feel like you are driving a car instead of controlling a complicated helicopter.
It is simple and straight forward. You will find it much more fun and interesting, and the pilot will be able to focus on the task at hand without the concerns usually associated with operating an RC helicopter.
Built-in Features
The new gimbal stabilization module is compatible with almost all 2-axis gimbal systems. The system will adjust the gimbal and camera according to the attitude of the helicopter after setting the parameters the first time.
The engine speed lock and governor are also standard features for ACE ONE. The built-in engine governor simplifies the parameter settings, and increases the compatibility of the system. All you need is to connect an extra standard sensor to use.
Control the helicopter in an easy way.
The self-learning function allows first time players to control the helicopter with greater ease by automatically maintaining altitude The helicopters velocity command can be issued by the RC transmitter (TX) separately, and it gives accurate feedback via on-board automatic algorithm.
When TX sticks are centred, the system will activate auto-hover accordingly.
Flight speed is a real-time relation to the position of the TX stick.
The attitude-stability mode works with low or no GPS signal, such as areas of high rise buildings, valleys, under bridges or even in caves.
The helicopter can be held in a fixed altitude without position or velocity locking when you switch into this mode.
With Manual mode the helicopter is fully controllable as an ordinary RC helicopter without any autopilot assistance.

The 2014/15 season at Bayerische Staatsoper
The 2014/15 season stands under the title of Glances Kisses Bites. "Inspired by Heinrich von Kleist, these three words very succinctly define the emotional world of opera. The dichotomy between love and hate that again and again constitutes the motif driving the pilot of operas will be the basic element of next season's premieres as well", according to Nikolaus Bachler.
General Music Director Kirill Petrenko will be conducting two new productions: Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor in the stage production of director Barbara Wysocka (with Diana Damrau and Pavol Breslik singing the main roles) as well as Alban Berg's Lulu with Marlis Petersen in the title role, staged by Dmitri Tcherniakov. With the resumption of Der Ring des Nibelungen, the General Music Director will also for the first time interpret a work by Richard Wagner at Bayerische Staatsoper.
The season opens with a fresh staging of Leoš Janáček's Věc Makropulos
conducted by Tomáš Hanus with Nadja Michael in the title role (directed by Árpád Schilling). Following that will be the premiere of Puccini's Manon Lescaut (directed by Hans Neuenfels), where Anna Netrebko will for the first time be heard in a new production at Bayerische Staatsoper. Singing by her side will be Jonas Kaufmann (Des Grieux) and Markus Eiche (Lescaut); the conductor will be Alain Altinoglu. The 2015 Munich Opera Festival will open in Prinzregententheater with the premiere of Claude Debussy's Pelléas et Mélisande; Christiane Pohle is the producer and Constantinos Carydis will be on the podium at Bayerisches Staatsorchester. Anja Harteros will take on the title role of Arabella in Strauss's opera of the same name. In this final premiere of the season, Philippe Jordan will be conducting and Andreas Dresen will be the director.
An additional 37 productions are on the musical programme such as Elektra, La forza del destino, Die Frau ohne Schatten, Guillaume Tell, Norma, Roberto Devereux, Die schweigsame Frau, Simon Boccanegra, Die Soldaten and Tristan und Isolde. A Schubert cycle with Christian Gerhaher, six Academy Concerts, Le Comte Ory by the Opera Studio as well as a children's opera premiere of Pinocchio will round out the programme.

I am so good at getting past those people with the clipboards that stand on the sidewalk to fundraise for charities:
Charity Girl: Hi! Do you want to help children with cancer?
Me: Nope, I've gotta go exchange this shirt at J. Crew right now.
Charity Dude: Hey, man, can I get your help feeding the hungry in Africa?
Me: Nah, I'm on my way to lunch.
Androgynous Charity Person: Excuse me, but do you have a minute to hear about how you can help cure AIDS?
Me: AIDS!? Ew, gross.
However, like all great tragic figures, sometimes my greatest strength ends up bringing about my downfall, like the time I was in SoHo a few years back and this woman reached out to give me what I thought was a flier. I artfully dodged her and made it a few yards down the street before pausing, sensing that I had made a mistake.
I looked back and realized that this woman was handing out free Fruit Roll-Ups! The alliterative quality of such a phenomenon alone makes it amazing, but I love Fruit Roll-Ups! I couldn't go back either. It's this damn pride of mine. Can you imagine having to go back—hat in hand, tail between legs—put out your pathetic paw, and say, "I'm sorry, I was wrong to snub you before, and actually I would like one of those complimentary fruit treats." I couldn't do it. It's one of the great regrets of my life, second only to the time I ran over that child with my Harley.

Comparative Study of Using Oil-Based Mud Versus Water-Based Mud in HPHT Fields
Growing demand for oil and gas is driving the exploration and production industry to look for new resources in un-explored areas, and in deeper formations. According to the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement, former Minerals Management Service (MMS), over 50% of proven oil and gas reserves in the United States lie below 14,000 ft. subsea. In the Gulf of Mexico some wells were drilled at 27,000 ft below seabed with reservoir temperatures above 400 °F and reservoir pressures of 24,500 psi. As we drill into deeper formations we will experience higher pressures and temperatures.
Drilling into deeper formation requires drilling fluids that withstand higher temperatures and pressures. The combined pressure-temperature effect on drilling fluid's rheology is complex. This provides a wide range of difficult challenges and mechanical issues. This can have negative impact on rheological properties when exposed to high pressure high temperature (HPHT) condition and contaminated with other minerals, which are common in deep drilling. High Pressure and High Temperature (HPHT) wells have bottom hole temperatures of 300 °F (150 °C) and bottom hole pressures of 10,000 psi (69 MPa) or higher.
Water-Based mud (WBM) and Oil-Based mud (OBM) are the most common drilling fluids currently used and both have several characteristics that qualify them for HPHT purposes. This paper compares the different characteristics of WBM and OBM to help decide the most suitable mud type for HPHT drilling by considering mud properties through several laboratory tests to generate some engineering guidelines. The tests were formulated at temperatures from 100 °F up to 600 °F and pressures from 5,000 psi to 25,000 psi. The comparison will mainly consider the rheological properties of the two mud types of mud and will also take into account the environmental feasibility of using them.

Several po ~rplants are in operation us1ng water
drained from this ~ore8t. The large p erplant at Grace,
Idaho, belonging t o the Telluride Power Comp ny is l ocated
on Bear River which 1s partially 8uppll ed with water
from this Forest. This plant develop approx1mately 18000
horse per. Four other plants are in op_ration j but one
pl~~t is l ocated on the Forest. It is on Logan River and
belongs to tlE C1ty of L03&11, devel ops appro 1ma.tely 150
horse power. The Telluride Power C o~any hae a plant at
the mouth of Logan Canyon just below the Forest boundary.
Tl e dam and part of the flume are l ocated on the .:'oreet.
The power devel oped by this plant is about 1500 horse pewe
A po .r plant on Cub Riv.r belonglnr to the High Creek
Po or Company Preston, Idaho, develops about 200 horse
power. The Paris Electric Light P1 nt l ocated on Pari s
Creek below the Forest bound y 1 of small si ze and devel

water power in water from thi6 Forest and in Bear River i
pro ably to be deTeloped in the future nuoh more than it
has been in the past. The power 16 abundant and should
be devel oped as rapidly as the inoreased demand f or it

From tho beginning of settlement stook raising
h& been one of th industries; and before the val~eyo sur rounding
t.ls Forest were settled they were used for summer rango,
and the stock was driven to other looalities for the winter.
The early settlers made stook raising the leading feature, built
stockades, cut and stacked wild hay which grew in abundance
along the river bottoms. They generally herded the1r stock in
the valleys and along the fo ot h11ls durin the day, a..1 fathered
them at night and stood guard over the to protect them
from the Indians. Toda,y a TCry small peroent of the people
make stoc}- raising their exclusive business, alt"'ough the ml'jority
of farmers raise stOck. Thes are mostly miloh cown and horsss
which they usually pasture in summer and feed at ho in ,rlnter.
The auntain range is suited only to G~r grazinr due to elev -
tion and depth of snowfall in winter." Range condit!" i .prove
fro ye r to year under Forest ~Anage nt. This io encouraging
to t e stockcen and a satisfaction to the officers . The najority
of t'le stock o'llIlers are bona fide settlers with their homes
end property locally situated. The output of stock is uold in
eastern rkete, principally Omaha. The stook are shipped by
railroad to t~ stock y ds.
Before the range was placed under government
supervision tran ient stoCk, moro espeoially sheep, filled the
mountains and canyons coming from all direotions. They !limply
took possession of the range Whioh the resident farmers largely
depended upon for their summer graz1ng, compelling the f ers to
se k other pastures or feed t. eir stoCk at home. This wa.s not
all, sheep men were accustomed to bed upon streams polut1ng the
ater makl it unfit for culinary pur OBPS, and giving to the
hole r~ge the odor of sheep .
Tod~ the looal stock 0" 'Iler is protected against
theae free for 11 invasions, ~d his stook usually st~ on the
range dur1ng the :raz1ng seasan if they not drived off t o
market. The gr e of stock improves from year to :ear with the
increase of teed and better management. The pub110 in general
is benefited by the proteotion or streams :"ld spring!) {hieh has
purified the water.
The mining induatry is very l1m1ted, and while there
baa been coneiderable proepeoting done no ore bodies or veins
of any commercial value have been found. The mining industry
would have to depend al togethar upon the timber trom the li'orest.
Leading Industries
The leading industry of the valleys lIurrounding thia
Forest is agriculture. Of this industry the branch of stock
raising is one of the most important. But few stoak owners depend
eltirely upon etock ra1sing and make it their ohief industry,
but it 1s considered 0. part of agriculture. The businesB of the
small towns surrounding this Forest is dependent pr imarily upon
agrioulture. About eight banks are doing business in these towns.
C ohe Valley h s several faotories that depend entirely upon
agriculture, namely, two su' r factories, two oondensed milk
factOries, a d quite a number of creameries hav also been established
in this valley. There ar~ three kni tHng factories located
in the town of Logan whioh ,ivo considerable employment, and
are not dependent upon a~riculture. The Telluride Power Com
pany has a power plant on Lo n River whioh is belo the b ounda
of this orest, and one at Graoe, Id~10, on Bear River and eir
miles west of the w.st 'oundary of this Forest.
Practio lly all of the industries abovo are dependent
uIon the Forest for their supply of timber and firewood hieh
are indispensable I ~or good summer range so neoeSJ y to the
most profitable rai ing of beef, mutton, and wool; and for water
supply for irrir;ation Purl.oses. While a large part of the land
in the valleys is not i rrigated and is not dependent upon the
tar supply from thie Forest, still the irri ated lands are
flO ttered throughout the valleYIl and mary farmers hav part of
heir fanr.s irrigated and the rest managed on the dry land plan.
The Bug r beet industrJ i praotically dependent upon irrigated
In 1859 the first settlers came into Cache Valley to
build permanent homes. The first winter they built a f ort on
the wsst side of the valley in what is now called Wellsville,
being nece ssa.ry to fo rtify themselves aga.inst the invasi on of
Indians. They were , young , full at hope aul detoninatl on, a
class used to frontier life and roughing it. They were all
poor being limited to a tean of horsee or oxen and fe',i milch
eows. They were attraoted to Caohe V",lley by the quality of
oil, the beautiful streams, and gradng possibilities. T11rough
their industry and perseveranc e houses wer built, and land was
fenoed, tilled and made producti? This attracted other home
seeker and new settlements spr nge up from ye r to year camp
posed largely of the same olass of people . As time el psed 1d
the Indi ns were subdued, s 11 vilages and ranc os ~cr in
evidence riherev r fa.vorable conditions pre iled, until th
hole oircumference of tho Forest is nOl'-I ore or less sottled
a1 thou 11 very scatt sring in some parts due to 5urrounding condition
A very limited number have tried fanning within the
Forest, and there is not likel:,' to be any futUre inoro8.so as
thet'e is little or no land suitable f or agricultural pur ,oses.
Another clas' of settlers were attracted as the co ntry
grow and the people prospered--the speoulative or business class
seokin~ investment . They could S06 tho opportunity for open1ng
mercantile est blishmente, ba.ks , ater po er faoilities , buy-in
and shipping the produots of t ho farm, building factories,
flour ,mill and other enterprises , until today th country is

Foreat ~gement , and the maj ority are 11 satisfied lith the

FUTURE D'll:VELOP liT OF THE Fe ST
After stating the industries as t have it can be
easily eeen in what manner dOTelopmentot these 1ndu tries
can be increased by proper m.nage ent ot this Forest. To
produoe the best results Forest management must produoe a
lar e supply at timber, tence posts, and t irewood f or developing
he ranohes. Roads sh Id be built to make this timber
ooessible. Waters[~ds must be protected to supply the most
constant 1'10 in the stream upon whioh tJe irr1gated lands and
power plants depend . The r nge must be .andled in the beet
possible nner so as to give the great est :"lount or go od to
the gre t st n~ber of l ooal users . Thi Forest must theretore
be looked upon &s being created and man d to acoomplish
these tree purposes, tlm~er supply, waters' ed proteot1on,
and fora~e supply.

The most important his torioal i ncident conneoted with
the settlement of Caohe Valley atter the settlers first arrived
in 1859 was the battle with the Indians on 3&ttle Creek a small
tributary of :Rear piver in the north end of Cache VOUlcy on
January 29, 1,63. Before this date t he I '1d1alll!! had oontir::ually
hara8sed t he Hettlers by stealing their oattle and making invasions
upon thei r 81'11.11 farms. Durinr, the winter of 1862 and
1863, about 300 warri ors with thei r fa!rJ.l1es w _re ccmpcd a.l'ld

the California volunteers attacked the Indians and practically
annihilated them. The Indi a.ns Vlere of the tribes of "the ;'annocks

Chief Bear Hunter was killed , but Pocatello and Sa.n Pitch cscaped.

battl~ A monument was erected to their memory a.t Camp Douglas .
As a result of thio battle the reibn of terror exer-cised
by the Indians over the settlers was broken and very l i ttle
trouble 7i£\0 experienced by the settlers w1 th the I ndians thereafter.

Raleigh, NC (Sports Network) - The Carolina Hurricanes continued to reshape their defense, signing Josef Melichar to a one-year contract Wednesday.
Melichar, who played last year in the Swedish Elite League, is slated to earn $1 million for the upcoming season.
The 29-year-old Czech last played in the NHL two seasons ago for the Pittsburgh Penguins, racking up 12 points in 70 games.
"Josef is a big, strong and experienced defensive defenseman who will be a shut-down player for us," said Hurricanes president and general manager Jim Rutherford.
Melichar was a third-round draft choice of the Pens in 1997. In 310 games with the franchise from 2000-07, he has registered seven goals, 40 points and 263 penalty minutes.
The move comes a day after the club dealt popular forward Erik Cole to the Edmonton Oilers for oft-maligned defenseman Joni Pitkanen.

"Since Affirmed in 1978" — it has to be the most overused phrase in thoroughbred racing.
And yet it's inevitable every spring, when a new crop of 3-year-olds takes a shot at the sport's most cherished prize — the Triple Crown.
Affirmed was the last to do it, 36 years ago, and the ensuing drought has coincided with a long downturn in popularity for racing. The sport's stakeholders have hungered for a new superstar, and a Triple Crown seems the surest way to make one.
Which is where California Chrome enters the picture.
He's perfect for the role — a personable chestnut colt with four white hooves, an underdog story and scintillating speed. Five times he has entered the starting gate as a 3-year-old and five times he has blown away the competition, the last two in the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes.
California Chrome will enter the June 7 Belmont Stakes as a commanding favorite, having already beaten the best challengers in the field. He seems poised to follow in the hoof prints of another great chestnut who ended a long Triple Crown drought, Secretariat
But the sport's recent past is littered with 3-year-olds who looked like the next superhorse only to falter on the 1 1/2-mile track at Belmont Park. A dozen horses since 1978 have won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness, then lost in New York. A few — Silver Charm, Real Quiet, Smarty Jones — came agonizingly close. Others, such as Big Brown and War Emblem, seemed spent shortly after leaving the starting gate.
The Triple Crown is a rigged game, one in which the aspirant is asked to find new limits of endurance while facing wave after wave of fresher horses. Some horsemen say it's become downright unfair. Others argue it's supposed to be this hard.
As California Chrome prepares to defy recent history, here are the five greatest obstacles he'll face:
A Fresh Field
Few analysts question that California Chrome is the best 3-year-old in America.
He easily avoided the pitfalls inherent to a 19-horse field in the Kentucky Derby, and he fended off early challenges from several speedy contenders in the Preakness.
But the road ahead is set to become far steeper as California Chrome prepares to run for the third time in five weeks against horses who haven't worked nearly as hard.
Two of his top rivals from Kentucky — Commanding Curve and Wicked Strong — are expected to run the Belmont on five weeks' rest. A new challenger, Tonalist, will run on four weeks' rest after winning the May 10 Peter Pan Stakes at Belmont Park.
Ride On Curlin, second in the Preakness, is the only other Belmont entrant who will have run the previous two legs of the Triple Crown.
So even if California Chrome is the best horse, he'll start at a significant disadvantage. Imagine the Miami Heat needing to win a whole extra round of playoffs before playing in the NBA Finals. That's the scenario here, and recent history says it makes a difference.
Since 1978, of the 11 near misses who made it to the starting gate for the Belmont (I'll Have Another scratched in 2012), seven lost to challengers who had not run in the Preakness. It's an accelerating trend — the last five horses to win the first two legs of the Triple Crown lost the Belmont to horses who hadn't run in Baltimore.
California Chrome's co-owner, Steve Coburn, wasn't shy about calling for reform after his horse won at Pimlico. Coburn said he'd like to see the Preakness and Belmont fields limited to horses who had already run the previous legs of the Triple Crown.
"If you bow out in the Preakness, you don't come back for the Belmont," he said. "I honestly believe that if the Triple Crown is not won this year by California Chrome, I will never see it in my lifetime, because there are people out there trying to upset the apple cart."

Is Cloud TV on the horizon for Google?
A cloud-based content delivery system could benefit a host of players in the tech sector.
I've recently been pointing to evidence suggesting Google (GOOG) will enter the content delivery business and speculated as to which companies might benefit.
Based on what I've learned, I think we can put a bow around this and predict with solid footing that Google in fact will make the move. Further, any such move should be viewed as a rising-tide event that benefits a broad swath of tech companies.
Google is building out an ultra-fast fiber optics network in the Kansas City area (on both sides of the Kansas and Missouri state lines).
Further, GOOG applied last December to the FCC for a license to build an "antenna farm" in Iowa it could use to pull in programming from satellite feeds.
I've since learned GOOG has in fact applied to both the Kansas Corporation Commission and Missouri Public Service Commission for licenses to deliver video content.
An attachment to its application to Kansas, which was dated February 17, 2012, stated, "Google Fiber Kansas, LLC will utilize national and regional video headend facilities to send IPTV across a private IP network to subscribers."
GOOG will obviously need to build out massive video head end(s) to support the venture and if speculation is right that GOOG aims to deliver what some describe as "Cloud TV," those head ends will not only be massive, but also very complex.
Cloud TV means essentially searchable TV on demand content - something similar to how consumers find content on YouTube.
To pull off Cloud TV GOOG would need to store massive amounts of video, and to fully leverage it would need to be able to control advertising insertion - possibly tailored to individual subscribers just like its Web advertising does today.
This pretty well limits the competition for the head-end to Cisco Systems (CSCO), Ericsson (ERIC), and Harmonic (HLIT).
While HLIT is the smallest of the three, I view its head end offering for this sort of an installation as possibly the most complete and most capable.
Of course, to store and manage all this video GOOG will need to substantially expand its Iowa data center that is close to the intended location for GOOG's antenna farm.
This means more servers and more storage (a lot more storage), as well as the assorted networking gear necessary to hook it all together.
This opens new opportunities for a number of companies, but clearly points to Intel (INTC) as an obvious winner for the processors used in the servers and data systems. Given the new chips INTC has developed for networking, it may see some upside there too.
The networking gear, however, will be a dog fight. Juniper Networks (JNPR) has enjoyed very good positioning at GOOG for some time, but long-term readers might recall our report from last year that pointed to CSCO hiring a number of top JNPR sales executives including the guy who led the effort at GOOG.
Given that GOOG's new network, not to mention data center, will rely on fiber optic connections all the way to end users, I think it's clear Corning (GLW), a leader in fiber optics cable, will see new opportunities.
In addition, fiber optic component/subsystem manufacturers like Finisar (FNSR) and JDS Uniphase (JDSU) will also benefit from the rising tide.
Beyond these headline companies, there are a bunch of smaller boats that this rising tide should lift, but that list is long, so we'll wait until there is more clarity about the tide before digging any deeper.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The University of Tennessee at Martin softball team registered a 3.5 team GPA for the 2012-13 academic year, ranking ninth amongst all colleges in the 2013 National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) Top 10 All-Academic Team rankings.
The NFCA Academic Awards program honors both collegiate and high school teams for their submitted GPAs from the 2012-13 academic year.
Nine players from UT Martin were recognized by the NFCA as scholar-athletes for the 2012-13 academic year last month.
Among the Skyhawks to be named were Leah Taylor, Morgan Lewis, Kelsey Dixon, Lindsey Feigl, Kenzi Tate, Deven Wilson, Casey Vincent, Sam McClure and Becca Williams.
In order to be recognized as a scholar-athlete, one must have acquired a 3.50 GPA for the year to quality for the individual honor.
"We strive to produce well rounded student-athletes," said UT Martin head softball coach Donley Canary. "We recruit athletes which show the same competitive spirit in the classroom that they would on the playing field. Our assistant coaches work extremely hard with our players and I am very proud to work with these ladies as they receive numerous academics accomplishments."

Between February and October 2011, more than 1 million people crossed into Tunisia to escape conflict in Libya. Most were migrant workers who made their way home or were repatriated, but the arrivals included refugees and asylum-seekers who could not return home or live freely in Tunisia.
UNHCR has been trying to find solutions for these people, most of whom ended up in the Choucha Transit Camp near Tunisia's border with Libya. Resettlement remains the most viable solution for those registered as refugees at Choucha before a cut-off date of December 1, 2011.
As of late April, 14 countries had accepted 2,349 refugees for resettlement, 1,331 of whom have since left Tunisia. The rest are expected to leave Choucha later this year. Most have gone to Australia, Norway and the United States. But there are a more than 2,600 refugees and almost 140 asylum-seekers still in the camp. UNHCR continues to advocate with resettlement countries to find solutions for them.
Angelina Jolie, in Ecuador this past weekend, on her first field visit as the new Special Envoy of UN High Commissioner for Refugees António Guterres.
In her previous role as a UN refugee agency Goodwill Ambassador, Jolie has conducted more than 40 field visits over the last decade. This is her third time in Ecuador - home to the largest refugee population in Latin America.
Ecuador currently hosts some 56,000 refugees and 21,000 asylum-seekers. It continues to receive 1,300 new applications for refugee status each month from people fleeing Colombia. Many live in remote and poor areas of the country close to the Colombian border.
Just ahead of World Refugee Day, UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador, Angelina Jolie, visits vulnerable Colombian refugees living in northern Ecuador.

Undead End is a retro-homage to the beautiful arcade games of the first '90. I tried to recreate the atmosphere of that period using only pixel art and low-fi sfx. Most of you will find a lot of quotes from other games, hope you will appreciate.
This is the 'hardcore edition': more graphics, sounds, weapons, enemies and more. And an awesome soundtrack of 3 different (GREAT) artists! Thank you guys!
(update) I added the option to switch from the ZXA keyset to the ASD, and corrected a glitch. Hope you'll find everything more comfortable. Thanks!
I love the artistic effects. The backgrounds are lovely, I like the style of the various creatures and the animation (the walk cycle looks good, if a little bit bowlegged). I'm highly impressed with some nuances as the dynamic shadows. I was fond of the many nuanced reference to other related games.
I don't know what the deal is with tanks, whether they drop randomly, whether I'm breaking an environmental object and not knowing it, whatever, I found a couple early on and haven't seen another since.
Anyway, I came to play this before trying the sequel, so I look forward to seeing how that one turned out.
Good idea, looks cool, controls do not work. You try to walk right, the guy walks left. you try to w]jump once, he jumps in place a dozen times. Try harder.
Shoot, I played this game using the original Xbox controller through Xpadder on this game and it was totally responsive! I should recommend using an arcade stick or pad for this one because this is going to be horrifying! About the game itself, the music is totally great! I can't listen to this enough, but this is freaky horrific!! Arcade raster support and configurable keys; they're much new. I had to try playing this game with the Blood option OFF, but this game has gore, 16-bit pixel-perfect graphics, 1990's style gameplay, and is something that will kill every zombie across the entire town! Great game! Very useful for arcade sticks and gamepads with Xpadder or Joy-2-Key!
Damnit, I played trough 2 times now, the second without dying, but I still cant play with this second character guy. Officer something something.
great, really great game. this old, unforgottable feeling of snes games. one of the handguns really looks like the first terminator's one. and i can't but say it. his flashlight looks like shining cock
