"When I was in first grade, I was Ultimate Warrior for Halloween. I just watched his hall of fame speech two hours ago. I don't even have words." - WWE developmental star Corey Graves on the death of the Ultimate Warrior
April 19, 2014
Through Twitter, Corey Graves posted this message, where he mocks Total Divas. He joked that the performers are sharing their secrets with a national audience and expecting people not to know. This is keeping in line with his social media character, as the WWE developmental wrestler has also mocked the Shield and the company itself.

A Twitter post from Corey Graves, where the developmental wrestler mocks WWE for keeping kendo sticks underneath the ring.
March 15, 2014
Corey Graves, a WWE developmental wrestler, took to Twitter to playfully mock the Shield about their entrance routine on Monday Night Raw.
November 19, 2013
"Honestly, I'm probably not going to sign my Legends deal with WWE because I don't think they did the right thing by the guys with the video game. The check was a little low. Last year, there was a bankruptcy, but this year there wasn't. So, I don't see the upside to signing the Legends deal when the carrot isn't there dangling. So, I'm not going to sign my Legends deal." - Mick Foley reveals why he is not signing a new contract with WWE
April 19, 2014
"I'm in shock and can't believe it, but my heart goes out to Ultimate Warrior and his family. He was one of my favorites. Rest in peace, Warrior." - Tamina Snuka on the death of the Ultimate Warrior
April 19, 2014
"Hey, let's stop pretending to be offended by what some shitty old lady said about wrestling on a fake news show." - Trent Baretta discusses the backstage heat that professional wrestlers have towards Nancy Grace
April 19, 2014
"That was actually my idea. I said in passing one day, 'What about me dressing up as old Sting?' I mean, I had the blonde hair. And Sting actually loved it. Those outfits that I wore were actually Sting's old gear. And he painted my face. A cool moment. Looking back on that, I would have to slide him into that group of most significant opponents that I've had." - Mr Anderson talks about working with Sting
April 18, 2014
"It's nuts to think that we could have four major wrestling promotions in the United States. Jeff's very smart, there's no doubt about it. He knows what he's doing, and always has a backup plan. He took TNA from nothing and turned it into something that's still around 12 years later. That's pretty darn good. That's an accomplishment right there. I trust Jeff. I trust him to put on something good, and something that people will watch." - AJ Styles on Jeff Jarrett and his new Global Force Wrestling
April 18, 2014
"He was an intense guy, and he was a perfectionist. His career was based on looking as good as possible. That meant eating as good as possible, training as hard as possible, avoiding anything that a normal human being might reach out to in their everyday culinary affairs." - Mick Foley on the diet that Ultimate Warrior had
April 17, 2014
"It is funny how people make fun about real jobs and wrestlers. We are human, too. I have a family to provide for. So, yes, I manned up and provide. The biggest joke of all is I get paid way more at Walmart than I ever did in TNA and on time. What a waste of time. Print that. Don't think that this is bitterness. I'm not on their show any more. Remember, I left them. They didn't leave me." - Jesse Neal talks about his new job in life
April 17, 2014
"So happy for Bray Wyatt. You deserve your moment, brother." - JTG praising Bray Wyatt before his match against John Cena at Wrestlemania 30
April 17, 2014
"Obvious that Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso have committed to getting main event phsyical conditioning. I wish them well. They had in ring skills when they were eight years old. That's a fact." - Jim Ross praising the Usos
April 17, 2014
"I was told it was reported WWE was 'there' for us. 'There' is the understatement of a lifetime. They were a warm blanket to us three and we were quickly absorbed into their family. Words are cheap; promises are forever. This family is one I'm honored to be a member of and will gladly be the warm blanket to any of them who need me next." - the wife of the Ultimate Warrior informing fans of how much WWE has helped her since the death of her husband
April 16, 2014
"I'm as grateful to Sting as anybody in the wrestling business for the benefit he has had in my career. Steve is a great guy and very very smart and just a model citizen as far as the way he conducts himself and how much respect he commands. There are some people who seem to be obsessed with respect and seem to be obsessed with guys not showing them enough respect but Sting is a guy who has never had to pull any stunts, never had to bully anyone, never had to throw his weight around or pull rank; he commands respect. The same could be said about Kurt Angle." - Brutus Magnus discusses how Sting is backstage
April 15, 2014
"Seems like TNA is signing their core talents whose contracts are either up or in need of revising. WWE has seemingly made it clear that they have no interest in Impact talents and will instead reply on their Performance Center for their future stars. However, with Jeff Jarrett preparing to launch another promotion it makes sense for TNA to be proactive." - Jim Ross reveals that WWE is not interested in TNA performers
April 15, 2014
"Not sure why as a fan I should dislike Cesaro and it can't be simply because he's aligned himself with Paul Heyman. Cesaro simply outwrestles people and is damned impressive while doing it. Some of Cesaro's matches down in NXT the last year or so were better than anyone on RAW was having at the time." - Jim Ross thinks Antonio Cesaro should do a face turn
April 15, 2014
"A unique athlete, it's funny because he was a book that was judged by his cover, for a very long time and it took a while to get him into TNA and we were always fighting to get him in. Everybody was like 'we gotta change his look and blah blah blah,' but finally when they gave him the chance, he showed them that you didn't need to judge him by the cover because he brings a unique intensity and a unique character to TNA and I think it would be a different TNA without him. He has changed the business." - Christopher Daniels discusses Samoa Joe
April 15, 2014
"I assume that he hasn't signed with WWE only because WWE hasn't announced it. Signing Sting would create positive news for WWE as he is a major star that WWE can monetize in a variety of ways if he comes aboard. I don't see Sting even needing to wrestle to be a viable asset to WWE if he does sign with the company. If Sting did have one match it WWE it would need to be a long build, much anticipated one that has a significant payoff at a major event more specifically Wrestlemania 31." - Jim Ross talks about the rumors of Sting signing with WWE
April 15, 2014
"I never really wanted to go to WWE. The tryout there was awesome. It was really fun and I can't say enough good things and I learned a lot, but I told a few of the guys during the initial tryout with Eddie that this was not for me just because moving down to Orlando is not what I wanted to do and wrestling is not the only thing I want to do with my life. To give up everything and just live in that world is not my idea of a great life or a perfect life. TNA offered me to be able to wrestle with some of the best wrestlers in the world, I could be on television, I could go and entertain crowds but I could still come home and be Wes. I could be Davey, then I could be Wes. It was just better for me and I couldn't be happier in TNA it's been great." - Davey Richards on choosing TNA over WWE
April 14, 2014
"Happiest guy living right now. Wish I was there to watch her grow up, but so happy to be given this gift now. And from here on, I'm going to be a different person than I have been. Will be the best daddy ever, or at least the best one I can be. I'm the happiest guy on this planet right now. Now, I get it. To all the boys who have told me how it's life changing when you have a kid, man, had no kids, so I didn't get it. Now I do. That's my girl. Guys, don't you dare look at her twice. Bad ankles and all, I will make sure you never look at my daughter like that again. Love you, Bianca." - Marty Jannetty after finding out that he has a daughter
April 14, 2014
"I've always admired and looked up to Terry Funk. Never did I actually think I'd be walking just like him. Knees hurt." - Paul London explaining how much of a toll the wrestling business gives to the body
April 14, 2014
"I cannot believe it. So shocked and saddened by the news of the Ultimate Warrior passing. Rest in peace. Prayers." - Alexa Bliss on the death of Ultimate Warrior
April 12, 2014
"Crazy story. While we were away, my mom found a briefcase and sales material scattered beside our house by the fence. She gathered them up and then tried to find some personal info to see who lost the stuff. She found a busienss card and called. Person who answered said the case was stolen out of her car over a year ago in Victoria, BC. No idea how it got to Calgary in our yard over a year later. Weird." - Lance Storm tells a weird story that took place at his house

How Demian Sellfors expects employees to both work and play hard at Media Temple
Demian Sellfors has always been ahead of his time. That aspect led the self-taught IT professional and graphic design artist to branch off from an established special effects studio and begin his own web-hosting company in the humble confines of his apartment.
He focused on offering the best in both quality and customer service, and the public took notice. Soon, Sellfors' company was acquired by one of his customers, Media Temple, which recognized his ability to lead and appointed him CEO 12 years ago. The company grew as Sellfors took a hands-on approach working directly with employees to coach, mentor and nurture the skills within each.
If you ask Sellfors his greatest contribution to the company's success, he would dismiss his role as an innovator and instead point to his ability to inspire greatness in others.
One of the challenges he faced was determining how to position his company among its competitors, many of which were caught in a downward spiraling price war. It prompted Sellfors to follow a new strategy — Why not offer the best quality for the highest price?
Media Temple maintained its product positioning with great success, boasting the industry's lowest churn rate of 1.3 percent compared to the industry average of 3 to 7 percent.
In the workplace, Sellfors is all about success, but he wants the pursuit of that success to be filled with fun and personal fulfillment. There is yoga and CrossFit at lunch and a catered meal every other Friday.
Children and pets are welcome at the office, and there's even a nap area employees can use to re-energize.
Sellfors wants his employees to be at the top of their game, and if they need to take a little time off to recharge, they can do it. Each employee gets a paid, one-month sabbatical every three years. It all adds up to the last of the company's five core values, which is simply, "Enjoy the Journey."

How Dinesh Ravishanker is living his dream and driving CallFire to ever greater heights
Dinesh Ravishanker and a team of graduates from the University of California, Irvine, did not have a lot of money in 2004 when they set out to launch what has become a game-changing business in CallFire.
But they had a passion for innovation and the energy to build a company that would transform the way the business world communicates. The result is a company that has grown its customer base to more than 100,000, with 15,000 new users coming aboard in 2012 — without a dime of venture capital.
CallFire simplifies telephony, making sophisticated and expensive carrier-class telecom capabilities available through affordable and easy-to-use graphical user interface and application programming interface platforms. Any business, from start-up to large enterprise, can reach its customers on any device using text message or voice.
Ravishanker, CallFire's co-founder and CEO, is committed to building a company that will have staying power and be able to evolve as the fast-paced world of technology moves forward. In order to do that, he knows he'll need employees who have a diverse skill set and a willingness to tackle new challenges as they come up.
CallFire has a number of health initiatives in place including nutritious food alternatives on-site and the promotion of athletic activities. Ravishanker also encourages employees to continue learning and attend seminars to gain new skills that can help them be more productive in their work.
He wants to build a brand that people associate with a strong work ethic and a spirit of customer service. But Ravishanker also wants the brand to stand for love of community and compassion for those who haven't experienced as much success in life.
During a vacation, Ravishanker traveled to Nicaragua where he worked with a group of speech pathologists to help children overcome their speech problems. He also helped renovate two orphanages. This spirit to help is what he encourages in his people as they seek their own path to give back.

How Sam Naficy has defied the odds to make DTT an industry leader
Sam Naficy is the president and CEO of DTT, a technology company in the video surveillance industry. Although DTT has emerged as a dominant player in its industry and continues to deliver cutting-edge services and technology through Naficy's leadership, it had modest beginnings, often facing capital constraints and tough competition.
With DDT's early financial struggles, Naficy decided to change DTT's business model from a fixed-fee service to a monthly subscription service to adjust to the competitive market and offer his clients newer technology. He also made necessary infrastructural investments to serve his clients better.
Although business was booming, he found himself unable to keep up with demand. It was not until he was able to thoroughly convince his father-in-law about his vision for DTT the he was able to obtain the needed funds to continue DTT's operations.
Through the years there have been many formidable competitors that have tried to enter DTT's market, but all have been unsuccessful in penetrating the company's dominance. Much of this can be attributed to Naficy's focus on his customer's needs instead of trying to dabble in various aspects of the technology world.
Essentially, he grew his company vertically rather than horizontally — providing a litany of services for specific customer needs. The company's "secret sauce" is its product's ability to extract sales detail from point-of-sales systems and mirror it with a video image.
Recently, DTT also rolled out a new product called the SCREAM service, a feedback app that operates in the cloud so the owner/operator receives customer feedback immediately by text and can respond immediately to any issues.
During the past 14 years, DTT has supported more than 27,000 customer locations for renowned brands such as McDonald's, Subway, Burger King, the Peninsula Hotel and has just developed a new relationship with Arby's. With 350 employees residing in various departments, Naficy has grown the equity value of the company immensely.

How Walter Driver and Scopely, Inc. envisioned a different kind of gaming experience
Walter Driver, the CEO of Scopely, Inc., graduated from college with a degree in creative writing, a skill he says was necessary to envision a company as distinctive as Scopely, a developer and distributor of mobile apps to enable third-party game developers to build, retain and monetize an engaged audience.
Driver saw an opportunity in the technology space since most gaming companies in Silicon Valley focused on the code and programming behind the applications they created. But Driver wanted to make gaming an emotional experience. With the vision of fusing technology and traditional entertainment, Scopely was born.
The technology industry moves extremely quickly, and Driver has proved his ability to adapt in an ever-changing environment. For example, when Scopely was first founded, most games were developed on the Facebook platform. However, Driver quickly identified the maturation of the technological ecosystem and shifted focus to the iOS platform for mobile devices.
At the highest level, Scopely is building a network of socially connected games that are supported by its proprietary platform. The company allows independent game developers to compete head-to-head against the largest developers in the world in the battle for reach, revenue and users.
Scopely's technical infrastructure allows developers to develop games efficiently. Its social mechanics are designed to create experiences that retain users and drive them to continually engage.
What distinguishes Scopely further is that unlike traditional publishers or social platforms, Scopely takes a hands-on approach to working with partners. By partnering with elite developers and dedicating resources to each game title it publishes, Scopely ensures that it only produces quality products.
Driver's strategy has paid off. Experts expect 1 billion smartphone users by the end of 2013 and more than 2 billion by the end of 2015. Tablet sales are growing even faster. The growth in the mobile device industry is organic, and Scopely has identified a way to profit from the wave sweeping across the globe.

How Martha de la Torre and Joe Badame grew El Clasificado into the country's largest free Spanish publication
In 1988, Martha de la Torre and Joe Badame could not have expected the small publication they created would grow to become the largest free Spanish publication in the country. The two young CPAs also could not have imagined the numerous obstacles they would need to overcome to ensure the company's success.
As the husband-and-wife co-founder's entrepreneurial adventure began with El Clasificado, so did the hard work and many sacrifices. At first, they did everything themselves. De la Torre became the salesperson and marketer, while Badame took care of operations.
Severely undercapitalized, de la Torre and Badame did everything they could to keep the business alive. They didn't take salaries for 10 years, sold their cars and home, and even moved in temporarily with de la Torre's father.
In 1992, however, Badame developed a strategy that would eventually take El Clasificado to new heights — he changed the company's distribution model, moving from home delivery to bulk-drop. After computerizing the company's distribution system, he also began an aggressive news rack market saturation initiative throughout Los Angeles. It was a major risk for the company, but also a move that positioned El Clasificado as the leading free Spanish publication in Southern California.
This business model continues today and has allowed El Clasificado to expand its reach from California's Central Valley to San Diego, and, most recently, to Yuma, Ariz. The company's award-winning distribution system has set the publication apart from its competitors, having been the first free publication in Spanish to contract with major supermarkets and convenience stores for distribution.
In addition, El Clasificado stands above the competition, as the publication is hyper-localized into zones grouped by zip codes. This strategy allows advertisers greater pricing options and flexibility to advertise in their preferred areas.
Upon launch of El Clasificado in 1988 only 10,000 copies were distributed, and today, total circulation has grown to 510,000 copies distributed throughout 48 zones, 300 cities and 23,000 distribution points.

How Moctesuma Esparza built a business he could be proud of with Maya Cinemas North America
If you saw a movie script that detailed the life of Moctesuma Esparza, you would never believe that it was historically accurate. Esparza was a leading activist and organizer in the Chicano movement of the 1960s, fighting for civil rights and equality for Mexican-Americans.
His involvement left him at one point indicted and facing life in prison for being an organizer of the revolution. But within two years of having the charges dropped, Esparza had not only turned things around, he was working in the West Wing of the White House with security clearance.
Having overcome those kinds of odds, Esparza might have been on easy street with the launch of a multiplex theater chain. But he has worked hard to ensure Maya Cinemas North America, Inc. is all about quality.
His passion is not in day-to-day management, but rather in bringing an idea to life. So he spends a great deal of time working on developing business strategies, identifying new locations to expand into and then getting that location off the ground.
Esparza has also been a leader in raising new market tax credits since part of his strategy is to target markets that other movie theater companies are reluctant to enter. In order to succeed, he hired a dedicated and highly involved president and COO, Frank Haffer, to manage long-term operations and hired strong local managers to run his multiplexes.
Esparza is admired by colleagues for his innate ability to persuade and inspire. He recognizes and rewards individuals who contribute to the company's vision while giving managers the freedom to perform their jobs how they see fit.
Esparza hasn't forgotten where he came from. He launched an innovative program that gives patrons the opportunity to round up their purchase to the next dollar and have the money donated to a local college scholarship fund that will be restricted to students within a designated area.

How Loren Bendele got his dream of running a business with Savings.com — and an office dog, too
Financial Services
Loren Bendele has been an entrepreneur from the day he started selling Blow Pops out of his backpack at school. His mother and father owned a popcorn and yogurt shop, and Bendele would buy the Pops wholesale to sell to fellow students. It was a profitable venture until he was asked to stop by his teachers.
But Bendele's career in business had begun.
In 2007, Savings.com was Bendele's effort to build an online coupon site that built consumer trust with coupon codes that always work. He put in the time building relationships with bloggers who could create buzz for his business and with companies who wanted to offer their coupons on his site.
Bendele's ability to relate to people and build those strong relationships is due at least in part to his time spent as a stand-up comedian. While it's not a path many leaders follow to business success, being up on stage helped him develop his storytelling skills and his ability to read people.
One of his keys to attracting customers and quality employees alike is not only a belief in his self and what he is selling, but the ability to get his audience to believe, too.
Bendele didn't have a crystal-clear vision of what his business was ultimately going to look like, but he knew he wanted great people and an office dog. A sign hanging on the office door that says "Dog on premises" and the smiling faces on the people who work at Savings.com indicate he has met those goals.
But Bendele is not satisfied with what he has achieved to this point. He is developing a grocery application that would be available on all smartphones. It would allow consumers to walk into a grocery store and look up the best deals within the grocery store as well as download any available coupons.
Bendele is hopeful that within five years, Savings.com will be the most dominant player in grocery couponing.

How Michael Rosenberg, James Freedman and Ed Bagdasarian jell at Intrepid Investment Bankers
Financial Services
With Intrepid Investment Bankers, there is something behind the number three. There are three on the management team: W. Michael Rosenberg, CEO; James B. Freedman, managing director; and Ed Bagdasarian, managing director. They exude a combination of humility, charisma and energy when discussing their journey from aspiring bankers to their current entrepreneurial venture.
The company has a three-part focus: meeting customers' needs, understanding how to be a strategic player and embracing innovation through unconventional standards.
Founded in 2010, Intrepid is becoming a major player in the investment banking industry, leveraging the experience of Rosenberg, Freedman and Bagdasarian.
Their experience goes back more than two decades. They built their first venture, Barrington Associates, into one of the most successful independent investment banks in the U.S. It was later sold to Wells Fargo. After Wells Fargo acquired Wachovia Securities in 2008, the trio helped integrate Barrington into Wachovia Securities.
Next, it was Intrepid's time in the spotlight. In just more than two years, it has grown into a leading M&A adviser in Southern California as measured by completed transactions, number of bankers and revenue. This was all done during challenging economic climates and is an example of the founders' entrepreneurial drive, vision and skill.
One of the practices that differentiates Intrepid from other investment bankers is its compensation method. Instead of the traditional salary plus bonus structure followed by many Wall Street firms, Intrepid makes every banker a "deal partner" who participates in the fees generated by the firm. This meritocracy structure rewards initiative and results.
Intrepid hopes to create a new standard for middle market investment banks with its philosophy on client service and industry. Teams that put together deals view their roles as hands-on managers of the deal process, leaving nothing to chance and driving every aspect of the transaction with passion. The firm's senior bankers participate in each facet of the deal process.

How Ralph Della Ratta Jr. left retirement to found Western Reserve Partners
NEO Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year
Financial Services
Ralph Della Ratta Jr.
managing director
Western Reserve Partners, LLC
When Ralph Della Ratta Jr. gets asked, "What were you thinking starting a new entrepreneurial chapter in your life at age 55?" he responds that he missed three things: being engaged in the game, doing great things for great people, and providing strategic direction.
After retiring from a remarkably successful career in the investment banking industry, Della Ratta had a revitalized vision of a project that would delve into the Cleveland mergers and acquisitions market. He approached three former colleagues with a proposition that held an unsure outcome without the smallest guarantee.
However, between Della Ratta's deal-savvy reputation, proven track record and constant ambition, these three individuals made large personal investments to help get Western Reserve Partners, LLC, up and running based solely on their faith and trust in Della Ratta.
Western Reserve Partners was formed to bring middle-market clients high levels of quality and service usually reserved for much larger companies. The company provides M&A, capital raising and other financial advisory services to middle-market companies across a focused set of industry verticals, including industrial, business services, consumer, health care, technology and real estate.
Each engagement is tailored to the client's specific objectives and relevant market dynamics. Thoughtful advice, keen market insight and well-crafted transaction processes have resulted in more than 80 percent of the company's sell-side engagements closing at valuation ranges that meet or exceed expectations.
Western Reserve's senior professionals share an extensive background in large-cap advisory work and have advised on dozens of transactions of $1 billion or more. The company brings the benefits of this experience to its middle-market clientele, and its assignments are all actively managed by senior professionals from kick-off to closing. Western Reserve's managing directors average nearly 30 years of experience and have collectively executed more than 600 transactions during their careers.
Della Ratta has been determined to position Western Reserve Partners as a reputable, respectful and innovative institution.

I had an iphone using firmware 1.1.2 and with StealthSim unlock. The iphone has been dropped into the water, but is still functioning untill one day the StealthSim is defective.
I then decided to use PwnTool to restore it to 1.1.4. I start using Ziphone to set it in recovery mode and then restored to 1.1.4 in itunes. And then Pawned it and restore with a customized firmware file.
The iphone was after this procedure broken in bluetooth and wifi(both disabled). After several hours research I found soloutions by using iLiberty to fix the two above problem.
I thought I was done, but the power/sleep button does not work as it should which means I cannot press it once and set the iphone i sleep mode(but the button works when I hold the power and the home button at once, the iphone goes into recovery mode). I then tried automatically to set the iphone to turn off after 1 min.
It does turn off after 1 min and I can activate the iphone by using the home button. The problem arises when I leave it longer(a couple of minutes) the iphone keeps rebooting itself and shows the apple logo and there is no way to turn it back on again. The only way I can do is to plug the USB cable into it and it starts normaly. Does anyone have a clue how to correct this problem?

Lot Details
CHURCHILL, Sir WINSTON (1874-1965, statesman, Prime Minister, war leader and author)
SPEECHES BY CHURCHILL RARELY OCCUR ON THE MARKET; THIS IS THE ONLY UNPUBLISHED ONE TO APPEAR FOR SALE. Approximately 1,450 Churchill related items (including photographs) sold at auction (see
) in more than thirty-five years: only about fifteen were connected with speeches (two autograph manuscripts, the remainder typescripts with varying degrees of autograph revisions), and most of them came from the papers of Kathleen Hill, Churchill's secretary.
An almost entirely different adoption speech for 29 September 1959 is printed in
Winston S. Churchill: His Complete Speeches 1897-1963
, volume VIII, 1950-1963, 1974, pp. 8697-8705. Churchill gave a second speech on the same day and in the same location headed 'Vote Conservative' in the printed collection of his speeches. He only gave four other speeches afterwards before his death. It is not known whether the printer whose instructions appear at the head of the first page actually printed the speech, but no examples of it are known and they may have been destroyed
en bloc
when Churchill decided to replace it with another speech which was more overtly anti-socialist.
'...It is now 35 years since you first returned me to Westminster. They have been eventful and trying years - full of dangers and difficulties. But our country has faced them all with fortitude and resolution. Today we can all rejoice that Britain stands proudly on her feet, paying her way in the world, and playing her full part in the collective defence of peace and freedom...It is eight years since the country decided that it had had enough of its experiment with Socialism...It was a road that led us into one financial crisis after another, and threatened us with ultimate ruin...Savings are proof of prosperity and confidence - prosperity for today, confidence in the morrow. This has not been achieved at the expense of our great social services...the Conservative Party does not hold out to the country the alluring prospect of easy living and the effortless multiplication of comforts and benefits...Our crowded fifty millions must earn their living the hard way by ingenuity, contrivance, enterprise and thrift...We must never forget our unique position as the heart and centre of the British Commonwealth and Empire, and a leading partner in the Atlantic Alliance. We have high opportunities to seize, and solemn duties to discharge...Peace can never be secured by sacrificing vital principles or interests...We can catch at any rate promising glimpses of that better world of which mankind has long dreamed and for which it has long toiled when science can unlock for all the people a vast storehouse of richer living. That is the vision which must inspire us with hope and stimulate us to new endeavours.'
This typescript derives from the papers of Colonel William Hubert (Hugh) Barlow-Wheeler DSO, OBE, an ex-Indian army officer, and Churchill's agent at Woodford. Two posters depicting Churchill were published by Barlow-Wheeler for the 1959 election, one printed by Maysigns and the other by Tulip Press. Churchill tended to retain the manuscripts and typescripts of his speeches (though it is known that he allowed Donald Forbes to keep the speech he gave on 20 March 1959), but Barlow-Wheeler might have thought it legitimate for him to retain this one when it came back from the printer, especially since the speech was not used. Churchill was returned for Woodford at the election and became Father of the House of Commons in October. The name of the Woodford constituency was to be changed following boundary changes to Wanstead and Woodford. Barlow-Wheeler observed: 'It is pleasant and appropriate to reflect that our great member...will be the only person ever to hold the famed and honoured title"The Member for Woodford"' (David Thomas,
Churchill The Member for Woodford
, 1995).
'There was a slightly embarrassing moment for Colonel Barlow Wheeler when he was invited to a cocktail party at No. 10, to meet some newly elected Tory members. He recalls, "My wife and I were looking at one of the pictures when Churchill came up, shook hands, and said 'Good evening.' He stared, puzzled, and then inquired, 'It's Barlow Wheeler, isn't it?' I said 'Yes,' and he went away. About ten minutes later, walking into another room, he found us looking at another picture. Again he shook hands, stared at me, and said, 'Barlow Wheeler, isn't it?' Once more I agreed. A quarter of an hour went by. We were examining a piece of sculpture depicting Winston painting at Marrakech, when, behind my back, I heard the familiar, gruff 'Good evening.' I turned, and there he was, with hand outstretched. But just as I was about to take it, he grinned and said, 'Oh, no! You're not going to catch me again.' He never made a similar mistake. If he saw me at even the most crowded affair, he would come across the room to chat with me. He is delighted to recognize anybody. I think he tends to look at perfect strangers with the uneasy feeling that he ought to recognize them, I suppose it happens to most men of his eminence, meeting so many people every day"' (Jack Fisher,
The Story of Lady Churchill
Saleroom notices
Churchill delivered his Adoption Meeting speech on 23 September 1959 at the Eagle, Snaresbrook, six days before his 'Vote Conservative' speech at Hawkey Hall, Woodford.

U.S. News Rankings
|Ranking score and category
California Institute of Technology is a private institution that was founded in 1891. It has a total undergraduate enrollment of 997, its setting is suburban, and the campus size is 124 acres. It utilizes a quarter-based academic calendar. California Institute of Technology's ranking in the 2014 edition of Best Colleges is National Universities, 10. Its tuition and fees are $41,538 (2013-14).
Caltech, which focuses on science and engineering, is located in Pasadena, Calif., approximately 11 miles northeast of Los Angeles. Social and academic life at Caltech centers on the eight student houses, which the school describes as "self-governing living groups." Student houses incorporate an admired Caltech tradition: dinners served by student waiters. Only freshmen are required to live on campus, but around 80 percent of students remain in their house for all four years. The Caltech Beavers have a number of NCAA Division III teams that compete in the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Integral to student life is the Honor Code, which dictates that "No member of the Caltech community shall take unfair advantage of any other member of the Caltech community."
In addition to its undergraduate studies, Caltech offers top graduate programs in engineering, biology, chemistry, computer science, earth sciences, mathematics and physics. Caltech participates in a significant amount of research, receiving grants from institutions such as NASA, the National Science Foundation and the Department of Health and Human Services, among others. Caltech maintains a strong tradition of pranking with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, another top-ranked science and technology university. Companies such as Intel, Compaq and Hotmail were founded by Caltech alumni. Famous film director Frank Capra also graduated from Caltech.
|School mission and unique qualities (as provided by the school):
The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) is one of the world's leading science and technology research institutions. Our 300 faculty members, 1,200 graduate students, and 1,000 undergraduates expand human knowledge and advance society through bold, collaborative explorations and creative, intensive scholarship in fundamental and applied sciences, and engineering. "What makes Caltech unique," says President Jean-Lou Chameau, "is our focus-on education, on science and engineering, but most of all, on giving everyone at the Institute the means and flexibility to pursue his or her best ideas."
Caltech students are some of the brightest minds from around the world. Our students hail from 49 states and 62 different countries, and 98% of our students placed in the top tenth of their graduating classes. Though the admissions process is competitive--only 13% of applicants receive offers of acceptance--the Institute is committed to making a Caltech education accessible to all students. More than 50% of students receive need-based assistance, the average need-based financial aid package is worth more than $35,000, and the average need-based scholarship totals more than $30,000.
The Institute operates advanced research facilities on its campus and oversees an international network of astronomical observatories, the seismological laboratory, and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). Caltech scientists have accelerated scientific discovery and launched new fields in molecular biology, geochemistry, and aerospace. Our faculty have earned 32 Nobel Prizes, 13 National Medals of Technology, 57 National Medals of Science, and 112 National Academy Memberships. Through the Caltech Office of Technology Transfer, our faculty obtain nearly 140 patents annually, and our students and faculty have started more than 80 companies since 1995.
The Caltech campus is located in the city of Pasadena, just 10 miles from Los Angeles, with access to regional and commercial industrial centers, government agencies, and educational and cultural institutions. Student life at Caltech revolves around the eight campus Houses, which revel in their distinct personalities and unique traditions, including a long history of elaborate pranks carried off around the country. Caltech students can participate in more than 150 clubs that celebrate a wide range of interests or compete in 17 NCAA Division III-level varsity sports. The Honor Code governs life at Caltech, affording students such privileges as take-home tests, permission to collaborate on assignments, and keys to campus buildings.

Verisign's infrastructure services help to ensure that your organization's websites are reliable and always available.
Verisign provides in-depth analysis, insight and response recommendations to help keep businesses and government organizations ahead of new and evolving cyber threats and vulnerabilities.
As the Internet continues to expand, Verisign is committed to creating and driving advancements that keep the Internet fast, safe, and reliable for all users.
PFS (the Portable File System) allows mounting of ISO 9660, High Sierra, and Rock Ridge (ISO 9660 with Rock Ridge extensions) CD-ROM disks. The daemon pfs_mountd.rpc is an RPC extension that is launched along with pfsd in order to allow the easy mounting of these file systems under HP-UX. It is remotely accessible over TCP and UDP.
Remote exploitation of a buffer overflow vulnerability in pfs_mountd.rpc included in multiple versions of Hewlett Packard Co. HP-UX allows for remote root access.
If a remote user sends two specially crafted packets over UDP, the buffer overflow is triggered. One must first send a call to procedure 5, and soon thereafter send the actual payload to procedure 2. Due to the closed nature of the pfs_mountd.rpc protocol specification, it is unclear at this time what functions the respective procedures actually perform.
The seriousness of this vulnerability is reduced by the fact that in most cases an attacker will only have one chance at exploitation until an administrator restarts the crashed daemon after a failed attempt. However, the attack is functional over UDP, thus allowing an attacker to completely spoof the attack, possibly even making it appear from inside a trusted network.
iDefense has confirmed the existence of this vulnerability in HP-UX 11.11i. It is suspected that previous versions are also vulnerable.
Adding firewall rules may not be enough to stop this attack due to the fact that it can be spoofed.
Hewlett-Packard discontinued support for the PFS on March 1st, 2004. As a solution to this vulnerability, Hewlett-Packard recommends discontinuing the use of PFS. More information is available from HP Security Bulletin HPSBUX02203 at the following URL.

According to the 2001 No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), schools are held accountable for educational results so that each child can meet his/her academic potential. State assessments are to be given to determine whether schools have been successful in teaching students the knowledge and skills for their enrolled grade as defined by the state content standards (The Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills or TEKS). Texas has developed new assessments that meet these federal requirements. Students served by special education services have the option of taking the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS), including TAKS (Accommodated), TAKS-Modified (TAKS-M), or TAKS-Alternate (TAKS-Alt). All assessments are based on grade level content as required by NCLB. The participation rate and performance of students with disabilities on statewide assessments are factored into a district's Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) status.
The Student Assessment Division manages and oversees the development, administration, scoring, and analysis of the statewide assessment program.The Student Assessment Division maintains a Student Assessment web page that serves as the primary source of information about the state assessment program. The Division of IDEA Coordination collaborates with the Student Assessment Division on the development of guidance, training, and resources on the topic of assessing students with disabilities.
Physical Fitness Assessment Initiative (PFAI): A program designed to gather physical fitness data from Texas students enrolled in grades 3 through 12. Students with disabilities should participate in this initiative unless there are documented medical reasons prohibiting participation.

With its monstrously high Special Defense combined with the excellent Sacred Fire and Brave Bird STAB combination and that impressive Attack stat, switching into Ho-Oh is a daunting prospect. Ho-Oh's amazing bulk and lack of weaknesses to common attack types in Ubers make it a defensive behemoth. Thanks to Ho-Oh's new toy in Brave Bird, most of its old counters no longer work as well, meaning that Ho-Oh is now a top-tier threat that can literally devastate teams. However, Stealth Rock is a large pain in Ho-Oh's side, as it is set up by many common Pokemon in Ubers such as Groudon, Forretress, and Deoxys-S, and Ho-Oh will hate losing 50% of its health every time it switches in. Nevertheless, the rainbow phoenix is still an enormous threat, and is something that every team needs to have a plan for.
By using Life Orb, Ho-Oh can ramp up its Attack, but can also make use of the versatility that comes with it. Sacred Fire, Ho-Oh's main STAB option, should be used primarily. Its 8 PP is the only flaw, one made even worse with Pressure being the most common ability in Ubers.
Ho-Oh's high Attack and excellent type coverage allow it to be a very intimidating threat, even when in the face of its potential counters. Sacred Fire, as said before, is Ho-Oh's main attack, and deals massive damage to anything that does not resist it. Groudon's sun boosts its power even further. Furthermore, Sacred Fire's whopping 50% chance of burning can also cripple any physical attacker that is daring enough to switch into it. Brave Bird is also an amazingly powerful attack to use if the weather is not in Ho-Oh's favor. It gets surprisingly good neutral coverage with this set, as Dialga is the only Uber that resists Flying-type attacks in Ubers, and only Aerodactyl, Solrock, and Lunatone resist the combination of Fire-, Flying-, and Ground-type attacks, and none of them are ever used in Ubers. The recoil damage can also be mitigated with Roost. Furthermore, Brave Bird will always OHKO Palkia, Latias, Latios, Rayquaza, and minimum HP / minimum Defense Kyogre after Stealth Rock damage with a Life Orb boost. Maximum HP Kyogre is also OHKOed after Stealth Rock and one layer of Spikes has been laid down, while the standard defensive Calm Mind Kyogre is always outsped and 2HKOed. Giratina is also 3HKOed by Brave Bird, meaning that Ho-Oh will KO Giratina before it will awake from Rest's forced two-turn sleep. (However, Ho-Oh will take a lot of damage in the process from recoil, and if Giratina's Sleep Talk move selects an attacking move, then Ho-Oh will probably die alongside Giratina, so attempting this can be risky.) Therefore, all of Ho-Oh's previous counters can now be dealt with, making this set all the more deadly. Earthquake rounds out the coverage, allowing Ho-Oh to hit Tyranitar, Heatran, and Dialga in the rain for super effective damage, who would otherwise resist Ho-Oh's STAB combination.
Substitute and Roost make fantastic additions to this set. Although you may feel that Life Orb recoil plus Substitute damage and recoil damage from Brave Bird will add up to too much passive damage, Roost can keep Ho-Oh healthy for a very long time, thanks to its great defenses. Substitute works very well with Ho-Oh, as its large base 154 Special Defense allows the Substitutes to stand up to many of the powerful special attacks in Ubers. Furthermore, the high chance of burning associated with Sacred Fire cuts many physical sweepers' attacks, making it even harder to break Ho-Oh's Substitutes. By using Substitutes, it eases prediction, and Ho-Oh can do severe damage to opponents who threaten it before switching out, such as Kyogre, which will help weaken the power of moves such as Water Spout. Whirlwind works very well on this set too if Ho-Oh has a lot of entry hazard support. Ho-Oh is bulky enough to shuffle the opponent's team effectively, thus spreading tons of entry hazard damage. Ho-Oh can also actually counter Giratina with Whirlwind, provided you have a lot of entry hazards up, as it will not be able to withstand so much passive damage.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
While the Physical Attacker set is more versatile, the Choice Band set hits very hard right off the bat. Sacred Fire is an excellent attack, and with its 50% burn rate and Ho-Oh's high Attack stat, you can expect to cause some serious problems for your opponent. Brave Bird will always OHKO Kyogre (provided it has no HP or Defense EVs), Palkia, Latias, Latios, and Rayquaza without any prior damage, although the recoil damage is a bit more detrimental since this set lacks recovery. Earthquake does more damage to Dialga than Sacred Fire if the weather isn't on your side, in addition to hitting any Tyranitar or Heatran that may come your way. It also 2HKOes Kyogre and Palkia, should Brave Bird's recoil be undesirable to you. Punishment is quite an interesting attack and is well suited for use against the stat boosting Psychic-types that are common in Uber battles. Although it starts at a paltry 60 Base Power, it gains an extra 20 for each stat boost the opponent has. For example, against an opponent with one Calm Mind, Punishment will have 100 Base Power. Punishment is good for hitting Latios (who will often fall to a single hit), Latias, and Giratina. However, Brave Bird will do more damage unless they have Calm Mind boosts.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
At first glance, this may seem identical to the Choice Band set, but this Ho-Oh plays more as a revenge killer and a fast sweeper. With Choice Scarf making up for Ho-Oh's below average Speed, it can surprise many opponents to become an unexpected speedy threat.
Sacred Fire is your main attack as it is on the previous sets. Brave Bird allows Ho-Oh to 2HKO most Kyogre, Latios, Latias, Palkia, and Rayquaza, although one must be wary of the recoil damage. Punishment is a unique move that allows you to take down some threats that your team may have allowed to set up. Calm Mind Mewtwo and Calm Mind Latias are completely destroyed by this move. After just one Calm Mind, Punishment is up to 100 Base Power. After one more, it reaches a deadly 140 Base Power. Earthquake is your strongest attack against Tyranitar and Dialga and can be used against any Heatran who enter expecting you to use Sacred Fire.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Ho-Oh can attempt to stall out opponents with Toxic and its massive Special Defense. You will still want Light Screen to take Surfs from Palkia and Kyogre and other hits from the many special based monsters that inhabit the Uber metagame. Toxic your foes and use Light Screen, Recover or Roost, and Pressure to stall out your opponent. Any physical threats can be handled with the burn from Sacred Fire, which had the added advantage of destroying any Metagross who is foolhardy enough to switch in. Make sure to hit the likes of Kyogre, Palkia, Mewtwo, Latias, and Latios on the switch with Toxic. The latter two may use Taunt or Safeguard to shut down your strategy.
Using either Recover or Roost depends on what you want Ho-Oh to do. Roost removes Ho-Oh's weakness to Electric, gives it an Ice-type resistance, and makes Rock-type attacks only do double damage against Ho-Oh instead of quadruple damage. However, using Roost can make trying to beat non-Stone Edge Groudon difficult, due to Ho-Oh gaining an unfortunate Ground-type weakness on the turn it Roosts, meaning that if said Groudon uses Earthquake on the turn you Roost, Ho-Oh will likely not survive. If you feel that this is a concern, you can use Recover over Roost so Ho-Oh will keep its immunity to Ground-type attacks at all times.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
When configuring Ho-Oh's EVs, first make sure that Ho-Oh's HP is always an odd number. This lets it switch into Stealth Rock twice and survive, whereas an even numbered HP stat would mean two hits of Stealth Rock will kill it off. 192 HP and 76 Special Defense EVs will allow Ho-Oh to always survive a Life Orbed Dark Pulse from Timid Darkrai after it has used Nasty Plot twice at full HP, making Ho-Oh one of the best Darkrai checks around.
Always max Attack on the Choice Band set. Like many other Ubers in the same base 90 Speed group as Ho-Oh, setting Speed is a tricky decision. Max Speed with an Adamant nature doesn't really guarantee it will outspeed anything of note; it just allows for a tie with Kyogre, Groudon, Dialga, and other Ho-Oh. If you don't want to take your chances in the coin toss against those four, you can focus more on Ho-Oh's HP, to allow it to take more hits. Allocate 24 EVs to Speed to beat Adamant Tyranitar, and then place the remaining EVs in HP. 84 Speed EVs can also allow Ho-Oh to outpace most Jirachi, allowing you to roast it before Jirachi can Paralyze Ho-Oh. 140 Speed EVs allows Ho-Oh to outrun most Rock Polish Groudon before a boost, should you want to (hopefully) Burn it with Sacred Fire before it hits you with Stone Edge. Jolly nature will outrun most Rayquaza, so that's certainly a worthy consideration. You only need 290 to achieve this, but max is again an option if you fancy your chances in a tie against the other base 90s.
Ho-Oh also has several other moves it can employ. Thunder Wave can cripple a counter with paralysis; thankfully, the only Uber immune to it is Groudon, who is unlikely to risk switching into Ho-Oh, as Ho-Oh's Sacred Fire can severely cripple it. Reflect is available for support purposes, although Sacred Fire burns are enough to ward off physical attackers. Whirlwind allows Ho-Oh to function as a phazer, which it does reasonably well against special attackers if they lack an Electric attack. Safeguard gives Ho-Oh and its teammates some protection against status. Due to Ho-Oh's massive base 154 Special Defense, 106 base HP, and some fairly useful resistances, Rest + Sleep Talk are viable options for a team that lacks a status absorber. Ho-Oh can also use Choice Specs or Calm Mind to take advantage of its base 110 Special Attack stat and its good special movepool, but generally there are a lot more Pokemon who are better special sweepers, such as Kyogre, Mewtwo, Latias, Latios, and Palkia. Also, Ho-Oh's physical sets are generally more threatening.
Checks and Counters
Ho-Oh does not have a true counter as nothing in Ubers can really stand up to its monstrously powerful attacks. However, as was mentioned several times in the analysis, Kyogre can be a massive pain in the tail feathers for Ho-Oh. Kyogre resists Ho-Oh's Fire-type moves, gets rid of the sunlight thanks to Drizzle, and will OHKO Ho-Oh with Surf. However, even the bulkiest of Kyogre are 2HKOed at worst by Ho-Oh's Life Orb Brave Bird after Stealth Rock, with more offensive variants being OHKOed, so Kyogre must be careful about switching in. Palkia has a higher base Speed stat than Ho-Oh and can destroy it with Water-type moves of its own. However, special attacking Palkia risk actually being walled by Ho-Oh in the sunlight if they lack a Rock-type move such as Power Gem, while physical variants risk being crippled by a burn from Sacred Fire. Rayquaza is also faster than Ho-Oh and can easily obliterate Ho-Oh with Outrage, but Rayquaza can only come in on Earthquake. Giratina can wall most of Ho-Oh's attacks, but it is 3HKOed by Brave Bird, meaning that if Giratina lacks Toxic or Stone Edge, Ho-Oh will beat Giratina due to Rest's two-turn sleep side effect. (Brave Bird will KO Giratina before it wakes up.) Latios and Latias can outspeed Ho-Oh and destroy it with Thunder, but the sunlight will cripple the move's accuracy and neither of them can take a Brave Bird, making them very risky options.
Using something faster than Ho-Oh with a Rock-type attack will make a good check for it. Choice Scarf Tyranitar is probably the best choice since it resists both of Ho-Oh's STAB attacks, will always outspeed non-Choice Scarf sets, and will always OHKO with Stone Edge. Garchomp and fast variants of Groudon and Giratina-O can also work provided they are equipped with Stone Edge. It should be noted, however, that all of these Pokemon need to be wary of switching into Ho-Oh's Sacred Fire, lest they be crippled for the rest of the match with a burn.

Rogers, Sandoval lead mens soccer past Air Force
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Craig Rogers picks up his second goal of the season in a hotly contested match at Air Force on Friday night, giving the Oral Roberts men's soccer team its first victory of the season, 1-0.
Rogers capitalized on a loose ball just outside the penalty box, booting the ball from 22 yards out with his left foot to close the game.
In his first start between the posts in his college career, and his first action of the season, sophomore keeper Isaac Sandoval sent back 11 Air Force shots.
The Golden Eagles offensive entered the locker room at halftime, keeping the Falcons close to their vest, taking four shots in the first 45 minutes, three of which were looks at goal.
Gerardo Salas gave the Golden Eagles their first opportunity of the half in the 7th minute of action that was knocked down by the Air Force keeper, Matt Underwood. As the two squads battled back and forth, John David James and Tom Adams each had looks at the net but to no avail.
Sandoval picked up five of his saves in the second half as the Falcons rattled off 15 total shots in the period. Salas had his second opportunity to put the Golden Eagles up in the 53rd minute, but Underwood closed the chance with a save, much like in the first half.
The Golden Eagles (1-5) hope to make it a streak on Sunday afternoon in the "Mile High City" as they take on Denver. The match against the Pioneers is set to begin at 1 p.m. local time.
