UD's Patzner, Winesett Grab Weekly Field Hockey Honors -- Nov. 5
Michaela Patzner • Delaware
Rosenheim, Germany/Karolinen Gymnasium, So., Midfielder
Patzner's third weekly honor of the season comes on the heels of a three-goal, one assist weekend which saw the Blue Hens earn two huge wins and their first ever CAA regular season title. In an impressive 4-0 victory at Drexel on Friday, Patzner gave the Hens an early 1-0 lead, then added some insurance with another goal to make it 3-0 late in the second half. The win not only assured that UD would host its first CAA championship tournament, but also allowed the team to finish league play perfect (6-0) for the first time. The Germany native capped off the weekend with one goal and one assist in a 6-1 rout of Villanova on Sunday.
Meghan Winesett • Delaware
Centreville, Va./Westfield, Fr., Forward
Winesett, like Patzner, won her third weekly honor of the season thanks to lending a helpful hand in Delaware's 2-0 week. She registered one goal in the 4-0 win at Drexel, then handed out two helpers in the Blue Hens' 6-1 triumph versus Villanova. Overall, the freshman finished her first career regular season with a team-high eight assists and is tied for third on UD with 22 points and seven goals this year.

I was rooting for the fox terrier for best it show, but that little pom sure was cute. Great finale. Nice that that little boy and Yogi won the dog of the year award; I bet half the people watching burst into tears when he started cryinng. I liked the dog dancing too. Plenty to watch in the finale including the guy running off the BBC set when the camera started with him in the shot, and the humping golden retrievers in the studio... I really want to go next year!
i have to admit i shed a tear when the little boy won, didn't he look so proud! bless them
the dog that won was stunning, beautiful colourings too, and the pom was just a sweet little ball of fur.
Mary Ray was great as usual!
i'm definatly going to go next year with the kids, is it on the same time every year? i'll have to find out the dates as i'd have to book the time off work.

yogi and his owner live only 5 mins away from me, didn't know until i saw tonights local paper and they were on the front page!!!
That little boy broke my heart. I could not stop crying when he won.
Joanna, Daisy Boo(ruby), Twinkle(tri), Brandy(blenheim rescue) and himindoors (mutt)
Did anybody see Speedy? He was absolutely hilarious
I agreed completely with the judges decision but I absolutely loved the pom which surprised me. I also loved the Golden Cocker who came fourth in the retriever group. I loved the Welsh setter too. In fact I loved them all!
Joanna, Daisy Boo(ruby), Twinkle(tri), Brandy(blenheim rescue) and himindoors (mutt)
ha ha ha ha yeah speedy, anything but
Speedy was hilarious; it was hard to tell if the Swiss woman had any sense of irony about him...
That pom was like a little teddy bear. I really liked the welsh springer too. All the dogs were interesting in that group and it was nice a breed that hadn't won before, won at Crufts! I like merle coats but despite all their attractions which I do understand, I've never been very excited about collies, which probably influenced my 'vote'. Though I like little shelties and like other pastoral dog breeds too. I think I've just been attacked and chased by too many herding-obsessed collies when I am cycling in the countryside.

After the game, Tebow was asked who told him he wouldn't be playing in the wildcat and he said: "It just kind of happens."
Texans' Foster ill
Houston running back Arian Foster left Sunday's game in the third quarter because of an irregular heartbeat and didn't return. Afterward, neither he nor Texans Coach Gary Kubiak seemed concerned.
"I'll be OK," Foster told reporters. "It's a very minor situation, so I'll be OK."
Kubiak said Foster experienced the problem once before in practice.
"He calms down and he's fine," the coach said.
The Texans' medical staff cleared Foster to return to the game, but Kubiak thought it best to give him the rest of the day off.
Slowing his roll
There's no shame in running for 86 yards against the league's fifth-ranked rush defense. But Minnesota's Adrian Peterson, who did that at Houston on Sunday, left himself a good piece of work to break Eric Dickerson's single-season rushing record.
Peterson would need to run for 208 yards in the season finale against Green Bay to eclipse the record of 2,105 yards, set by Dickerson with the Los Angeles Rams in 1984. Peterson had 210 yards rushing against the Packers on Dec. 2 and 212 against St. Louis last week.
Although the Vikings won, 23-6, the Texans did a decent job containing Peterson, who had his lowest rushing total since gaining 79 yards in an Oct. 14 loss at Washington. He had rushed for at least 100 yards in eight consecutive games.
"We knew they were going to focus on the run, which is OK," Peterson said of the Texans. "It felt good to see other guys get involved and us continue to move the ball down and score some points."
Philly farewell?
Andy Reid might have coached his last home game for the Eagles.
Reid, the NFL's longest-tenured coach, saw his team collect its 11th loss Sunday, the same number of defeats he had as a rookie coach in 1999.
The Eagles almost forced overtime in their home finale against Washington. But almost didn't cut it.
Asked if he believes Sunday was his last home game, Reid said: "I don't know that. I have nothing to tell you on that. I'm the coach right now, and I'm just coaching. That's what I'm doing, the best that I possibly can."
Before the season, Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie said he expected "substantial improvement" over last season's 8-8 record. Reid has a year left on a contract that guarantees him about $6 million annually.
Parting shot
All signs point to San Diego sacking Coach Norv Turner after the season.

This was really very nice, but I made it with a wider variety of summer veggies - pepper, aubergine and red onion along with the courgettes and tomatoes, and omitted the chick peas. I roasted these in a hot oven for 40 mins, then combined with the couscous, fried halloumi and dressing. Delicious on a summer evening with a glass of chilled rose!

3570 S. Las Vegas Blvd., Las Vegas, NV, 89109
Location: Strip
Type: Clubs And Lounges
Pure Nightclub is 36,000-square-feet of unadulterated, or, you know, "pure" nightlife fun, offering a few different experiences for you to party into the night hours.
As you walk in through the white light-bathed main entryway, you can come into the large, ivory-tinted main room. Go straight ahead and you can head right toward the dance floor and two main bars, right near the stage and VIP seating, or you can swing right and find yourself by another bar and in a more secluded area of the main room. Either way, the main room is where the bulk of the party is at Pure Nightclub.
Two additional rooms are attached via the main hallway, featuring a bar, a few VIP booths and a small dance area as well. These rooms give you an option for a slightly more intimate nightlife experience than the grander, more in-your-face main room.
A quick trek up the main room's stairs takes you to the terrace, giving you a nice view of the club as you head outside.
Pure Nightclub is the club that pioneered the whole "patio with a Strip view" trend and it's still one of the best at pulling off the terrace party vibe. The 14,000-square-foot terrace offers some great views of the Las Vegas Strip and a dance floor, private cabanas and its own bar. You experience an entirely different vibe here, since the terrace also has its own DJ and the lights of the Las Vegas Strip provide a backdrop that no indoor nightclub could really match.
Most recently, Pure Nightclub also began featuring Pure Lounge. It's an alternative nightlife experience that takes place Monday - Thursday beginning at 5 p.m. Harkening back to the traditional lounge experience, Pure Lounge has live music by talented performers (often booked for a limited-time residency) onstage in several sets each evening. Choreographed dancers are usually part of the entertainment as well.
Pure Nightclub gives you plenty of options, and pulls them all off pretty nicely. If you're looking for some variety in your night, this is the club to see.

We are Utah Jazz!
I would imagine if it hasn't happened yet, that sometime in the next 24 hours Ty Corbin will get a text message from John Stockton with a congratulations and a rotary phone call from Jerry Sloan sharing a similar message. Both messages will be short, simple and to the point.
I would also imagine that ten years from now there might be 200,000 people that claim they attended the Playoff Play in game. The folklore behind last night's game will get bigger and "The Hug 2" t-shirt will be a keepsake. @monilogue
Over the past 65 games, Jazz fans from all walks of life have had and shared their opinions and frustrations; some have been right and some have been wrong. We have analyzed coaching decisions, starting rotations, finishing rotations, last second passes, substitution patterns, management styles, missed assignments, ownerships quarrels, fan's fanhood, and analyzed statistics and matchups beyond reproach.
Some of us wanted the playoffs, some of us wanted draft picks, some of us wanted trades, and others wanted coaches fired or management changed. And yet, some of us were content with the ride. That is all behind us now.
Over the passed six months many people have gotten on and off the Utah Jazz bandwagon. Either way, we welcome you back. We welcome you back to tradition. We welcome you back to optimism. We welcome you back to the Utah Jazz.
We do not need apologies, excuses, or reasons for why you left. We also don't need gloating and bragging as to remind us that you have been here the entire time. We need your voice and your optimism to support your playoff bound Utah Jazz team.
After last night's win, it is time to set all of our opinions aside for the greater good of a team and a franchise that is showing progress.
Making the playoffs shows progress.
Progress equals success.
This weekend we can root for the Utah Jazz.
We can also root for ourselves, because We are Utah Jazz.
Last night's thoughts from around the city.

Here it is. THE GAME. The chips are down and this one is for all the Tostitos. I sat down with Michael Schwartz of ESPN TrueHoop Network's ValleyoftheSuns to break down the biggest game EVER in the history of... Okay, maybe not ever, but for this group of guys it sure is.
Michael and the VotS crew will be running pre, half, and postgame live chats for the game for real-time analysis and reaction. I should be popping in for portions of that, so join us! We'll be taking questions and comments from the readers.
TheUtahJazzBlog: Michael, it's no secret that opposing scouts have pin-pointed and targeted an often porous pick-and-roll defense of the Utah Jazz. With Steve Nash feeding the second-best mySynergySports-ranked roll man in the NBA in Marcin Gortat are we expecting a steady diet of PnRs once again?
ValleyoftheSuns: This is the Phoenix Suns, what else would you expect? Like your old Jazz teams, that play is the bread and butter for the Suns with Nash running the show. It doesn't even matter that Utah struggles in that department, that's just what they run. The thing is this play has often stalled late in games when defenses really stiffen, so it will be interesting to see if the Suns can have success with the play down the stretch in what figures to be a close game.
TUJB: Many may find it surprising that the Jazz are ranked 11th in PnR defense this season on the roll man, but next-to-last at 29th on the ball handler, in this case Steve Nash. How is he holding up at this juncture of this truncated season, and do the Jazz have an answer for this future HOF'er?
VotS: When he's right, not many teams have an answer for Two Time. As always, he's been slowed by little bumps and bruises all season, most recently a hip malady that affects his movement once in a while. But he's been fine these past few games and with two full days off to recover I would be surprised if Nash isn't at his best. When that's the case, roll the tape of the final few minutes of these team's previous meeting to get your answer.
TUJB: Who are the players on Utah most suited to making you sweat in this most important, playoff-esque atmosphere and why?
VotS: Really all of the big guys, Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap in particular. With Channing Frye likely out or at least limited after suffering a shoulder injury on Saturday, the Suns will be thin up front and may even call on pencil thin Hakim Warrick for production at the backup four spot. The Suns did not possess the most lethal interior defense to begin with, so I definitely fear the possibility of Jefferson and Millsap having a field day inside.
TUJB: What players, doing what, are key to putting the Suns over the top after the pick-and-roll if Utah is able to stymie the steady flow?
VotS: Really, the Suns need a total team effort, especially if they're shorthanded. I hate to boil it down to something so simple, but the Suns must make shots, particularly Jared Dudley and Shannon Brown. When those guys get hot on the perimeter it can often open up the pick-and-roll game and make the Suns' offense elite. Then you saw how important the Suns' bench mob can be in that last matchup. With Bassy and Michael Redd leading the charge, the bench has really gelled in the last month. Especially with the starters shorthanded, the bench unit must step up once again.
TUJB: If you could have one player from the Jazz on the Suns who would it be and why?
VotS: Long term, it's got to be Favors, no questions asked. The Suns need a young future star and Favors could be exactly that. But for the rest of this season I'm rolling with Millsap. His bruising, physical style would fit in well at the four spot and the Millsap-Gortat rebounding tandem would make the Suns formidable on the glass for once.
VotS: Hey Clint, why are the Jazz so much better at home than on the road? Every year they seem to be two different teams depending on the venue.
TUJB: With only one season of the last five over .500 on the road that is a perplexing query. You might say it was experience except for that. With one of the notoriously best home courts in the NBA with a supportive, raucous crowd, the disparity between home and road may be striking to the players. Maybe they simply lack the mental fortitude, a trait older, successful teams acquire.
VotS: What's the biggest reason Utah is ahead of schedule this season competing for a playoff spot?
TUJB: They're really close, they have each others backs so they want to win for each other, make that extra pass, bring that help defense. Seasoned vet Earl Watson said this group of guys is closer than any locker room he's ever been in and Al Jefferson said recently that they'd "die for each other."
VotS: The Suns have already beaten the Jazz twice this season. What must the Jazz do differently tonight to prevent the series sweep?
TUJB: Obviously, minimize how the pick-n-roll happens, starting on the perimeter. If you let an opposing ball handler of Nash's quality dictate where the play goes you've already lost half the battle. And they have to put the effort in early, not wait til late like they did against the Orlando Magic the other night, when they buckled down and pulled away late. On the offensive end they need to continue to hit perimeter shots, of late led by Devin Harris who is shooting a career high from 3 this year. In the first two contests with Phoenix the Jazz hit 8 of 22.
Tom Smart, Deseret News
VotS: Who are the players on Phoenix most suited to making you sweat in this most important, playoff-esque atmosphere and why?
TUJB: Should the Jazz find themselves able to keep Nash and Gortat from dominating the paint, the player that seems to do the most damage keeping the defense honest was Channing Frye. If he's not in there I'd expect Michael Redd and Jared Dudley to attempt to open up the lanes and the Suns offense in the paint for the former pair to butter their bread. Phoenix hit on 44% of 50 3-point field goals in the first two meetings.
It also hasn't gone unnoticed that Alvin Gentry has found recent success rolling out a peaking-at-the-right-time Sebastian Telfair in the backcourt with Nash.
VotS: What players, doing what, are key to putting the Jazz over the top tonight?
TUJB: It starts with Al Jefferson directing the defense, a new trick this "old dog" added to his bag a few weeks ago. That communication is key to helping your perimeter defenders effectively counter a determined offense by pushing them away from where they're trying to be to set up a play. Failing to stave off the PnR with the starters Ty Corbin's found a lengthy, extremely successful spark lineup that includes Gordon Hayward at the 2, Paul Millsap at the 3, Derrick Favors at the 4, and Jefferson as a capable last line of defense when given the tenacious help the three in front of him have given.
And gotta knock back those treys.

*This post doesn't include any stats or insights from the Mavs @ Jazz game.
Last week started with promise as the Jazz won a gimme vs the Spurs [JV Team] and picked up a HUGE road win in Houston. But it once again fell apart as they lost in New Orleans (For the SECOND time this season) and in Memphis as well. Two games were "easy", and two games were "tough", the Jazz won one of each. I would call last week a letdown, as our team is in the heat of a playoff push and couldn't finish off two road games they should have won.
Devin Harris
Last Week's Line: 13.5 points (39%), 6.5 assists (2.8 TO's), 2 rebounds
Devin had mediocre week as he sandwiched two bad games between two good ones. While he did struggle with his shooting, he once again was able to lead the team in assists (5th consecutive week). I've said it before, and I'll say it again. When Devin plays good, so do the Jazz. We need good play from our starting PG if we want a shot at the playoffs.
*The Jazz are 17-4 when Devin Harris scores 12 or more points.
DeMarre Carroll
Last Week's Line: 4 points (37%), 3.3 rebounds, 1.5 steals
Carroll didn't have the best week either, but he sure did come up big in Houston. DeMarre hit double digits in scoring (10 points) for just the second time this season, had a season high in rebounds (7) and even pitched in 2 steals. While he doesn't consistently have big games like this, Carroll has consistently brought the energy, effort, and hustle, often creating a spark off the bench. Is he the wing version of Ronnie Price?
*Carroll is shooting 37.5% from downtown since joining the Jazz.
Gordon Hayward
Last Week's Line: 17.5 points (49%), 3.8 rebounds, 5 assists (2.5 TO's), 1 steal
Fantastic basketball is becoming the norm for Hayward. Gordon's play last week was easily good enough to put him in contention for this week's award, marking the fourth straight week he's done so. Hayward was second in both points and assists last week, and was really active just about everywhere. His growth this year has really been amazing. He took his increased minutes (+13.7) and more involved role and boosted all of his numbers, doubling some. Last week I mentioned he was a top three player on this team, but if he keeps this play up for the rest of the year you could argue he's even better.
Paul Millsap
Last Week's Line: 20.8 points (52%), 8 rebounds, 2 assists (1.8 TO's), 2.8 steals
It was a great week for Millsap, who really has been battling the second half of the season. Sap led the team in points and steals, while finishing second in rebounding. He played good all week, grabbing no less than 7 boards and scoring no less than 17 points. And he did all this on a bad wrist, which he injured in Houston. It's funny, after hearing about Paul's injury, I didn't want him to play his next game. He did anyway, and dropped 27 points. That's pretty impressive, but yet I wasn't surprised, because that's just what Paul does.
*Millsap has only missed 13 games his entire career, playing in 97% of them.
Al Jefferson
Last Week's Line: 16.5 points (52%), 7.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists (0 TO's), 2 blocks
Not a terrible week for Al, but his productivity did slip a little. Jefferson didn't finish the week leading the team in points or rebounds (3rd in both), something he has done regularly this year. However he did finish tied for blocks (had some big ones in Houston) and finished the week with 0 turnovers, not a single one (I understand Jefferson's style of play leads to less turnovers, but playing 144 minutes without turning over once is still pretty damn impressive). Having only made the playoffs once (as a rookie) Jefferson wants to make the postseason more than anyone, and it will be fun to see what he does in attempt to get there.
Jamaal Tinsley
Last Week's Line: 3.8 points (33%), 3.3 assists (2 TO's), 1.3 rebounds, 1 steal
Tinsley wasn't great last week as he permanently took over as Harris' primary backup (Earl out with injury). Jamaal struggled to score which is isn't out of the ordinary, but he also may have been forcing things as he had a much lower than usual Assists to Turnover ratio (1.7:1.0). While most would argue Tinsley is a better offensive player than Watson (he is), Watson easily the better defender. My point being, the team can't afford Jamaal to be a liability on the offensive end because he already is one on the defensive end. I'm don't think he will, just making point. Our bench has been streaky bench all year long, and it's key Tinsley runs it efficiently as the Jazz try to win their final few games.
Alec Burks
Last Week's Line: 5.5 points (41%), 2.8 rebounds, 1 assist (1.8 TO's) (14.5 minutes)
Burks was able to "kinda" bounce back from his prior week of bad play, but still only played "okay". His minutes have gone back down, and he's struggling to find a way to contribute when he's on the floor. I don't have any numbers to back it up, but it feels like Alec has relied on his jumper (which isn't great) much more the last few weeks. This could be due to fatigue, or maybe his early success. Either way I'm not a huge fan of it, and hope it starts to fall or he stops taking it. While Burks may be at his "rookie wall" I have seen one recent improvement in his game the past few weeks, his rebounding. Burks averaged just under 3 rebounds for the week (that's 7 per 36) and had a career high of 7 (4 offensive) vs the Hornets. This was a skill he was said to have coming out of last year's draft, and it would be great if it translated over to his NBA game.
Derrick Favors
Last Week's Line: 9.8 points (54%), 10.5 rebounds, 1 assists (2.3 TO's), 2 blocks (29.8 minutes)
Awesome week for Favors, who was one made shot away from averaging a double-double. Derrick has seen his minutes go up recently (thanks to Corbin's new lineup with Paul at the 3) and he has definitely made the most of them. Favors led the team in rebounding, FG%, and finished tied for blocks, and yes he's doing it in under 30 minutes a game. This is the type of Favors we envisioned all last off-season, and I can't help but be giddy now that he is showing up on a weekly basis.
Enes Kanter
Last Week's Line: 2.5 points (67%), 3.7 rebounds (11.8 minutes)
Kanter is still getting limited minutes, but he is starting to use them better. Kanter's rebounding is back to norm, as his 3.7 translate out 11.3 per 36. While he technically led the team in FG%, he only took 6 total shots, that's just over 1 attempt a game. I'm not going to remind you that Kanter is just 19 years old (oops, just did), but we really do need to be patient with the rookie. He's not going to get huge minutes anytime soon, I don't think many bigs would get huge minutes with the players like Favors, Millsap, and Jefferson ahead of them. Right now he just needs to continue to learn the do's and the don'ts, while still trying to make a positive impact on the game.
Players who didn't play (very much): Jeremy Evans (18 minutes), Blake Ahearn (5 minutes), CJ Miles (Injured), Josh Howard (Injured), Raja Bell (Injured)
Another average week and another tough decision.
Player of the Week: Week 16

Looking in on the madness from Jazz-Mavs from around the internet.
The Trib: Big Al punched out the Dallas Mavericks
Jody Genessey tells hilarious halftime LeBron joke. Wait, that was at the game. Here's the real scoop.
David J. Smith's always comprehensive Instant Analysis.
An excellent take on the temptation of tanking from The Rockmonster.
This isn't first time I've attended an insane 3-OT tilt in that building. But it was the most intense one. (You'll have to excuse HP; she's still a little sick after being uber-hacked by some Malaysian meanies. The main content is still there though)
Quite literally a franchise night for the Utah Jazz as recounted by Locke.
My day is never complete without some Jazz Bags. Now your day is complete.
Two pros put in their two cent's worth: CBS's Matt Moore has a Mansap crush and Spencer Hall doles out grades like that teacher you love.
SLCDunk's Clark Schmutz opines on the job Ty Corbin has done.
A quick note: Al Jefferson set a Utah Jazz franchise record for rebounds in a game with 26. However, the overall franchise record is held by Truck Robinson with 27 when the Jazz were still in New Orleans, back in 1977. Here's the list of Utah Jazz 20/20s. Donyell Marshall? Twice?!
A road trip that the Jazz needed to win, at the very least two, has them instead returning home losers of two straight. You can talk about which one hurt more all you want. Doesn't matter. Jazz came away empty handed and in a deep hole.
no comments
They now sit two games back of the coveted 8th seed in the Western Conference. With just four games remaining, the Jazz need to finish 4-1 or 5-0. That's a tough road for a team who still has to face Phoenix and Dallas. Granted those two games are at home. But those are two teams the Jazz have yet to notch a win against this season.
On a night after a disappointing loss against the Hornets the Jazz needed to come out with some fire and grit. And it was there early. They fought and battled through three quarters. And then with the game on the line in the 4th quarter, on a second night of a back to back, Memphis sucked the life right out of the Jazz with pick and roll after pick and roll. And it didn't help that OJ Mayo hit three 4th quarter daggers from downtown.
When it comes down to it, you can blame injury, you can blame youth, you can put blame just about anywhere. But the Jazz have fought all season. They look like they have just run out of gas down the stretch. A tough, grinding, compressed 66 game season has taken its toll. They have had to fight to get every win this year.
There is still a chance for the playoffs. But it's slim.
But regardless of what happens, Jazz fans should be proud. We've watched a team that was expected to be a bottom dweller fight its way into playoff contention. And we've watched a young team grow and mature.
That's been remarkable and exciting. Something worth cheering about.

Native American Ethnobotany
Timber Press, 1998 - Science - 927 pages
Native American Ethnobotany is a comprehensive account of the plants used by Native American peoples for medicine, food, and other purposes. The author, anthropologist Daniel E. Moerman, has devoted more than 25 years to the compilation of the ethnobotanical knowledge slowly gathered over the course of many centuries and recorded in hundreds of firsthand studies of American Indians made over the past 150 years. This research has yielded a treasure-trove of information whose magnitude will surprise even those familiar with the anthropological and botanical literature: it documents Native American use of 4029 kinds of plants with a total of 44,691 usages.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "As I have consistently written in the past, this limited production cuvee, from a 12-acre site that contains a parcel of extremely old vines, 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, is meant to last three decades or more. Tasting like a liqueur of rocks interwoven with creme de cassis, espresso roast,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The minerality and stoniness really comes through on the nose of this Rieussec, more than the 2007. The palate is very well balanced with superb acidity, real tension, steely with great precision with notes of apricot, white peach and honey on the beautifully defined finish. Probably the best..

Chateau Haut-Bailly has a distinctive style that harmoniously combines classicism with modernity, elegance, finesse and softness with structure. The silky smoothness of the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Chocolate, espresso roast, plum, fig, and black currant aromas are followed by a dense, rich, full-bodied Pomerol displaying superb purity, elegance, and noticeable but ripe tannin. There is not an astringent element to be found in this savory, layered, opulent 2006. It is ideal for drinking over..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Beychevelle's style is for elegance, and this wine epitomizes that character. It is sweet, soft, with light tannins, achieving a balance of black fruits and acidity, light in structure and depth."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A new acquisition by Christian Moeuix of Pétrus, nearly 10 acres close to the church in the heart of Pomerol. It is a soft wine, more about ripe, rich Merlot, very generous, the black fruit a burst of liveliness."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "An opulent, ripe wine from the ever-improving Beychevelle. It is rounded with new wood flavors along with just the right amount of tannin. Deceptively soft, with a solid, dry character behind the fruit."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The most powerful, finest overall wine made at this estate since their 1982, the muscular 2009 reveals a dense ruby/purple color in addition to meaty, smoky notes of black cherries, iron, truffles, loamy soil, and spice.

Dense black purple to the rim, the 2009 Lascombes has enormous concentration, with loads of graphite, blackberry, and blueberry notes as well as hints of pen ink and truffle.

The Resource Center has all the info you'll need From content to user feedback, the resource center has the information you need for every level of the entrepreneurial process.
How do entrepreneurs change society? Is it through the potential of their ideas? Is it the passion that drives them? Or their ability to see opportunities where others cannot? Is it the impact and innovation of the events that come from their work? Or is it the belief that an idea can change the world?
Part 2 of 2: Thom Ruhe speaks on entrepreneur/CPA/lawyer/author Lou Hutt's popular XM Radio show discussing various matters related to entrepreneurship, the Kauffman Foundation, the E=R Campaign and our current business/economic climate.
I recently attended the 39th Annual Induction Ceremony for the National Inventors Hall of Fame. As it has been in years past, it was awe-inspiring and of significant historical interest.
When considering the optimal number of founders for any new entrepreneurial adventure, the calculus extends well beyond simple formulas seemingly supported by observations of startup cohorts within specific industries. Famous technology twosomes that come to mind include David Packard and William Hewlett of Hewlett-Packard, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak of Apple, Paul Allen and Bill Gates of Microsoft, Larry Page and Sergey Brin of Google. In these examples, it is widely observed that these buddy teams complemented each other well in the early formative years of their companies.
You don't need to spend countless hours in a classroom, or have an MBA to become a successful entrepreneur. Entrepreneurs often don't have the time or patience to sit through a semester long class or six-week course in order to retrieve the answer to a question they have now--today. They need help quickly and efficiently. And this is where our idea for Founders School started.
I recently returned from participating in the 2nd Annual Rome Forum of the Harambe Entrepreneurial Alliance, hosted by the Vatican's Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace.
As a father of three, I vividly remember those chilly, early-summer mornings of packing bags, loading up the car, and waving a sad goodbye as my children began their latest adventure at the summer camp of choosing. And there were plenty of those mornings over the course of 18 years. There was volleyball camp, and Science Olympiad clinics, and lacrosse camp.
A few weeks ago I wrote a blog post about President Obama's State of the Union Speech. I observed that entrepreneurial vision was lacking and I wish he had used the occasion to revive bipartisan support for an entrepreneurial agenda that could have given both parties things to support.

Tabor Symphonic Band to present home concert Sunday
The Tabor College Symphonic Band will present its home concert at 4 p.m. Sunday in the Tabor College Chapel. The public is invited to attend.
Selections from the ensemble's repertoire will include standard and classical instrumental literature, contemporary pieces—including a composition by Tabor instrumental director Daniel Baldwin.
This concert will be the final performance of the band's spring tour, which will have included stops in Minnesota, Nebraska and South Dakota.
This concert series was Baldwin's first at Tabor.
"I have a wonderful band and am pleased with our playing," Baldwin said. "The band is doing a terrific job."
The symphonic band includes wind instruments and percussion. It performs annually for the college during the Christmas season, commencement and several concerts during the year.
The instrumentalists also serve as the members of Tabor's pep band for home football and basketball games, and the band was selected by the KCAC in March to serve as the official pep band at the conference's basketball championship games, hosted at Hartman Arena in Park City.

So we're all used to using Dream Weaver, Notepad++, Zend Studio whatever floats your boat. But you have an important change that you just don't want to open one of these cumbersome programs to open, because you know it will take literally a few seconds, misplaced semi-colon or an equal's sign where there shouldn't be one.
The answer is Command Line! Command line is your best friend as a web developer, here at SEO Positive we use it all the time for fixes on new clients sites and existing sites and for editing important hidden files such as [dot] files, there are a few you can choose from but my favourite is vim as it provides fantastic source colouring for most files.
Linux/Unix based operating system's have these small programs built into them and if you're using a Windows machine you will need access to a Linux or Unix based system and to use PuTTY to access the command line if you have appropriate access to it.
once you have logged into your command line window you'll probably be thinking, well what now?
its very simple, at SEO Positive we use a mix of vi, vim and nano. But what are these I hear you saying, they are editors based on the command line.
You need to find the location of your desired file and type the following into your command prompt window depending on what editor you have chosen.
sudo vim /location/to/your/file
You will then be asked for a password, if you're on a web server you may not need to prefix this line with 'sudo' as this is a command that tells the system you want to perform an action as the computers administrator.
You will then be presented with the source of your file. I've written a short list of the keyboard short cuts for vim and some links to a full list of short cuts for the other two previously mentioned editors.
^ = shift
^E = skip the current word
^A = edit the end of the current line
a = edit the current line at the current cursor position
esc = exit edit mode (file remains open)
^W = save changes (write changes)
^ZZ = save current changes and exit vim (closes file and vim)
And the links to other resources:

Oxymorphone (Opana, Numorphan, Numorphone) or 14-Hydroxydihydromorphinone is a powerful semi-synthetic opioid analgesic first developed in Germany in 1914,[3] patented in the USA by Endo Pharmaceuticals in 1955[4] and introduced to the United States market in January 1959 and other countries around the same time. It (along with hydromorphone) was designed to have less incidence of side effects than morphine and heroin.
The brand name Numorphan is derived by analogy to the Nucodan name for an oxycodone product (or vice versa) as well as Paramorphan/Paramorfan for dihydromorphine and Paracodin (dihydrocodeine). The only commercially available salt of oxymorphone in most of the world at this time is the hydrochloride, which has a free base conversion ratio of 0.891.
In some countries, hydromorphinol is distributed under the trade names Numorphan and Numorphan Oral. This is a relatively rare exception and the two drugs, whilst both being strong opioid analgesics, are notably different from one another.
Oxymorphone is administered as its hydrochloride salt via injection, or suppository; typically in dosages of 1 mg (injected) to 5 mg (suppository). Endo has been the major distributor of oxymorphone throughout the world and currently markets oxymorphone in the United States and elsewhere as Opana and Opana ER.
Opana is available as 5 mg and 10 mg tablets; Opana ER, an extended-release form of oxymorphone, is available as tablets in strengths of 5 mg,10 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, and 40 mg. As of July 21, 2011 generic strengths equivalent to Opana ER 7½ mg and 15 mg are available.[5] Some resources assert that 2, 12 and/or 15 mg IR tablets and 25, 36 and 50 mg extended release tablets will be introduced although apparently the timeline on that is not known to the public at this time. Opana Extended-Release tablets are based on the TIMERx system developed by a consortium led by Endo and Penwest. Some of these strengths (notably not the 7.5 mg) are available in an Opana IR–immediate release–form for breakthrough pain to be used by patients already on 24/7 opioid care such as fentanyl patches and sustained-relief morphine drugs like Avinza.
In addition to the sustained-release version for Opana, other versions of TIMERx are available and being developed for other protocols such as increasing, decreasing, stepwise increasing, and stepwise decreasing dose delivery over time, single and multiple bursts of medication, and combinations of the above. Opana ER was changed to the INTAC platform of extended release and abuse deterrent as of 2012. Similar to the changed Oxycontin platform, both developed by Grunenthal using Polyethylenoxide under pressure and heat for extruding pills.
Specifically, the apparent extension of the duration of effect of the IR tablets (all other things being equal, oxymorphone has a duration of action of 5 to 8 hours in most patients) versus similar drugs in commonly used immediate-release forms—for example Dilaudid (hydromorphone), morphine, Vilan (nicomorphine), Paramorfan (dihydromorphine) as well as prodrugs for this group such as hydrocodone, nicocodeine, codeine, dihydrocodeine and others—is often attributed to a marginal extended-release effect from various excipients, particularly those that are hydrophilic and form a gel-like substance at the pH levels in the stomach and duodenum.
Both as the result of this and the pharmacokinetics of oxymorphone, the IR tablets have a de facto duration of action of 5 to 13 hours (the mean would seem to be around 7 hours with a moderately small standard deviation and a left-skewed and leptokurtic frequency distribution) in patients with normal kidney and liver function. As a result, patients rotated on to extended release oxymorphone preparations from other opioids may very well need the Opana IR tablets, Numorphan ampoules or phials with hypodermic needles and/or a PCA pump, or immediate-release formulations of hydromorphone, dihydromorphine, high dose oxycodone, hydromorphinol, nicomorphine, diamorphine, or morphine for breakthrough pain incidents already in progress. An oxymorphone nasal spray is reportedly in development, along with a possible hydromorphone nasal spray and implantable osmotic pumps for both drugs.
The duration of action and metabolic half-life of oxymorphone mean that immediate-release tablets are more similar to analgesic preparations of methadone, levorphanol, piritramide, and existing extended-release forms of morphine, oxycodone, ketobemidone and so on. The extended-release Opana tablets can provide detectable analgesia for anywhere from 6 to 36+ hours (the mean appears to be very close to the lower end of the continuum), largely contingent on things that can alter the drug's liberation, absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination profile. One cause is unusual conditions in the upper and middle GI tract, such as created by misoprostol and Arthrotec (misoprostol plus diclofenac). Among other things, misoprostol is a smooth muscle agent with both a contact and systemic mucousagogue that coats the stomach and adjacent areas with increasing amounts of mucus. This can result in everything from even slower onset of action to intact tablets being passed with stool.
Oxymorphone is also produced within the human body when the liver metabolises oxycodone by means of O demethylation catalysed by the CYP2D6 enzyme. Approximately 10% of the dose is processed by the endocrine system in this respect; this can vary widely from person to person. The codeine-hydrocodone group and morphinans exhibit the same characteristics.
Consuming alcohol with Opana extended-release tablets can be an extremely dangerous situation. The absorption of oxymorphone can vary wildly in the presence of alcohol. Plasma concentrations were found to be as low as -50% of expected to as much as 270% more than expected. Elevated plasma levels could result in overdose. Opana ER does not cause "dose dumping", which creates a blast of drug release that plagues other long acting opioids.
Oxymorphone is indicated for the relief of moderate to severe pain and also as a preoperative medication to alleviate apprehension, maintain anesthesia, and as an obstetric analgesic. Additionally, it can be used for the alleviation of pain in patients with dyspnea associated with acute left ventricular failure and pulmonary oedema.
Opana extended-release tablets are indicated for the management of chronic pain of all or most aetiologies and are indicated only for patients already on a regular schedule of strong opioids for a prolonged period. The immediate-release Opana tablets are recommended for management of breakthrough pain for patients on the extended-release version. Some protocols for chronic pain conditions characterised by severe breakthrough pain incidents add Numorphan ampoules as a third form of the drug for use when a breakthrough pain incident is in progress. An oxymorphone nasal spray is being developed for this purpose but the release date is unknown; some practitioners prefer fentanyl immediate-release formulations such as Actiq or Fentora for this purpose although some patients have severe side effects from fentanyl.
Oxymorphone is used in veterinary medicine in many of the same uses as for humans, with induction and maintenance of anaesthetia and sometimes tranquillisation of small and medium-sized animals being the most common use. Morphine, hydromorphone, fentanyl and butorphanol are also common in veterinary settings and tramadol is now often used as an analgesic for cats, dogs, ferrets, rats and other small animals.
Oxymorphone is mentioned, along with buprenorphine, oxycodone, dihydrocodeine, morphine and other opioids as a possible means of mitigating refractory depression.[6][7][8] Opioids were commonly used for this indication up until the introduction of the tricyclic antidepressants in the 1950s, even though the latter appear to work in a smaller percentage of cases and are generally more toxic than most chemical classes of opioids. Conversely, tricyclic anti-depressants and chemically related drugs are the most commonly used adjuvants and atypical analgesics used with opioids for pain, especially neuropathic pain.
Oxymorphone HCl occurs as odorless white crystals or white to off-white powder. It darkens in color with prolonged exposure to light, though this does not affect potency. One gram of oxymorphone is soluble in 4 ml of water, and it is sparingly soluble in alcohol and ether. The commercially available injection has a pH of 2.7–4.5.
In common with other opioids, oxymorphone overdosage is characterized by respiratory depression, extreme somnolence progressing to stupor or coma, skeletal muscle flaccidity, cold and clammy skin, and sometimes bradycardia and hypotension. In a severe case of overdose, apnea, circulatory collapse, cardiac arrest, and death may occur.
At equianalgesic doses oxymorphone is marginally more toxic than morphine but less so than fully synthetic opioids such as methadone and pethidine[citation needed]. At therapeutic doses, toxicity is primarily manifested as miosis, nausea, and possibly occasional mild involuntary muscle movements especially in the distal portions of the extremities and the shoulder area in some cases. This is most common in patients taking a number of other drugs for their condition, especially muscle relaxants and some adjuvant analgesics, and also appears to happen most often during and immediately after a significant upward titration in the single-dose and per 24 hour doses.
Instances of the body suddenly jerking bolt upright from a more relaxed sitting position is a sign of high and/or rapidly increasing serum levels of opioids and all of the above movements are likely due to the anticholinergic or anticholinergic-like effects of opioids and/or other medications prescribed at the same time, as they manifest in patients on atropine-like drugs as well. The primary risk here involves dropping objects, spilling liquids, striking body parts against walls, and potentially losing footing on flat ice surfaces.
While all this can be frightening at first, more than 85 percent of patients do not experience it at any time during treatment, and oxymorphone does not appear to induce seizures in neurologically healthy patients as does the pethidine series of opioids (pethidine, anileridine, alphaprodine, piminodine and others) nor does it have toxic metabolites that accumulate in the system as do pethdine synthetic opioids. There is also no real evidence that oxymorphone significantly lowers the seizure threshold like tramadol and some of the other synthetics mentioned above.
Other manufacturers and Endo themselves have also, according to reports in the mass media and professional journals[who?] over the last few years, considered and/or are currently developing a Duragesic-style oxymorphone skin plasters and oxymorphone and hydromorphone nasal sprays.
In the United States, more than 12 million people abuse opioid drugs.[9] In 2010, 16,652 deaths were related to opioid overdose.[10] In September 2013, the FDA released new labeling guidelines for long acting and extended release opioids requiring manufacturers to remove moderate pain as indication for usage, instead stating the drug is for "pain severe enough to require daily, around-the-clock, long term opioid treatment."[11] The updated labeling will not restrict physicians from prescribing opioids for moderate, as needed usage.[9]
Like other effective centrally acting analgesics, some of the additional effects of oxymorphone can include euphoria, anxiolysis, promotion of sociability, and other similar effects that can cause psychological addiction to the drug. Also, like other opioids, oxymorphone use can result in physical dependence accompanied by potential withdrawal symptoms with abrupt discontinuation.
Opana does have euphoric effects, and they are short-lived. This is one of the crucial elements of a drug that can generate a serious narcotic habit rather quickly in those who take it for recreation and require more doses to maintain a stable level of euphoria. These effects however, barring enhancement with alcohol or other substances or means of administration other than oral, are less pronounced than that of morphine, fentanyl or dilaudid however, as mentioned previously, when taken intranasally the euphoric effects are far more pronounced.
The significant antidepressant and empathogenic properties of oxymorphone and other dihydromorphinone class semi-synthetic opioids is currently of interest to both the underground and the medical establishment, the latter of whom are "re-discovering" the anti-depressant effect and its relatively low ratio of toxic effects and lack of association with patient suicide attempts (see the oxycodone discussion for further information and footnotes) and Opana ER has been proposed as an alternative to methadone and other extended-release and/or long lasting drugs like Morphine, extended-release dihydrocodeine, buprenorphine, and 24-hour hydromorphone tablets for opioid detoxification and maintenance.
Endo withdrew the original Numorphan tablets from the market in 1972 as the result of regulatory and market pressures and other considerations as it was passionately sought, by any means necessary, by some narcotics addicts. Until its removal from the United States market at that point, oxymorphone in the form of Numorphan 10 mg instant-release tablets was one of the most sought-after and well-regarded opioids of the IV drug using community. Because of its low bioavailability, 10% when taken orally, a 10 mg tablet represents 10 times the average IV dose in a single tablet. Known popularly as "blues" or "Nu- Blues" for their light blue color, the tablets contained very few insoluble binders—making them easy to inject—and were extremely potent when used intravenously. "Blues" were also considered to be especially euphoric; comparable to or better than heroin. Numorphan tablets, and the oxymorphone they contained, are the "blues" referred to in the film Drugstore Cowboy.
Slang terms for oxymorphone include: blues, biscuits, blue heaven, new blues (although the immediate-release tablets are pink and off-white), octagons (extended release), [strength] octagons, stop signs, pink, pink heaven, biscuits (could also be Dilaudid tablets, meprobamate tablets, or formerly Quaaludes), pandas, pancakes, pans, pink heaven, pink lady, Mrs O, Orgasna IR, OM, Pink O, The O Bomb (by analogy to the slang term for hydromorphone "H Bomb") and others.
Oxymorphone is not a component of "T's and blues", 1970s slang for a combination of pentazocine ("T's") and pyribenzamine ("blues"). Nor are "blues" 10 mg Valium tablets, which are known as Blue Bombers and BBs.
Rare cases of users baking their own at home by extracting oxycodone from pharmaceuticals and converting it to oxymorphone have been reported in a number of countries. In some cases, codeine is the starting material with morphine, or more rarely thebaine, being the intermediate. In those cases, the more common end products sought are morphine salts, morphine base, heroin, dihydromorphine, desomorphine, and hydromorphone.
The low bioavailability of oxymorphone after oral administration requires Opana extended-release to contain up to 40 mg of oxymorphone per tablet—almost as much as an entire case of Numorphan ampoules; attempts to circumvent the extended-release mechanism by injecting or snorting the tablets are therefore particularly dangerous. However, chewing the tablets and/or taking with alcohol for the 70 per cent bioavailability boost from the latter appear to be the only means successful Opana ER misuse aside from insufflation—the TIMERx system appears to be making the extended release tablets useless for preparing for injection, but injection is possible using a two-stage extraction/cooking process involving alcohol and water or a temperature independent water-only extraction process if prepared 12 – 24 hours prior to injection.
Oxymorphone is commercially produced from thebaine, which is a minor constituent of the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum) but thebaine is found in greater abundance (3%) in the roots of the oriental poppy (Papaver orientale). Oxymorphone can also be synthesized from morphine or oxycodone, and is an active metabolite of the latter drug. The structure-activity relationship of oxymorphone and its derivatives has been well-examined. Esterification of the hydroxyl groups yields stronger compounds. Another derivative of oxymorphone is the opioid antagonist naloxone (Narcan).
As reported in the July 1993 issue of Applied Environmental Bacteriology (PDF available at http://aem.asm.org/cgi/reprint/61/10/3645.pdf), the bacterium Pseudomonas putida, serotype M10 turns oxymorphone into oxymorphol by means of a one-step conversion involving morphine dehydrogenase and a naturally occurring NADH-dependent morphinone reductase that can work on unsaturated 7,8 bonds.
German patents from the middle 1930s indicate that oxymorphone as well as hydromorphone, hydrocodone, oxycodone, and acetylmorphone can be prepared—without the need for hydrogen gas—from solutions of codeine, morphine, and dionine by refluxing an acidic aqueous solution, or the precursor drug dissolved in ethanol, in the presence of Column 7 metals, namely palladium and platinum in fine powder or colloidal form or platina black. It is unclear from information available if aluminium or nickel can be used as a catalyst in these reactions as well.[12]
However, the aforementioned patents deal specifically with hydrogenation reactions producing dihydrocodeinone (hydrocodone), dihydromorphinone (hydromorphone), and ethyldihydromorphinone as final products. Hence it is unclear at best and rather unlikely that these particular procedures can be applied for the synthesis of oxycodone or oxymorphone, as they are not typically synthesized in this manner.
The rare practise of making homebake oxymorphone generally uses oxycodone and pyridine amongst others, and the production of homebake hydromorphone (Dilaudid) from hydrocodone does also exist but is extremely rare. This is similar to a method especially common in New Zealand to make morphine out of codeine. The resultant morphine base is used as is, made into a salt (usually citrate, although ascorbate, acetate, hydrochloride, nitrate, phosphate, and sulphate are also possible) by dissolving the base in a solution containing the relevant acid, or treated with acetic anhydride or rarely other chemicals capable of acetylating compounds to produce what is usually a mixture of heroin, morphine, 3-monoacetylmorphine and 6-monoacetylmorphine. Depending on the method, this can also contain acetylcodeine and leftover codeine.

So what happened was I had a huge gift card for the App Store so I purchased the Sygic North America Maps App. It's a pretty BIG file and something went wrong during the installation. As it was being sycned with my iPhone, my laptop turned OFF and when I turned back on my computer, I had a huge chunk of my Capacity bar in iTunes labeled as "Other." About 1.98 GB as "Other." It also says I do not have enough for memory to re-install the App either. I already tried to SSH into my /Applications, and I don't believe that it was there.
To sum it up, I really don't want to restore/upgrade AGAIN with my jailbreak data/tweaks/utilities, etc. Is there another way to get rid of all that unused data? I'm mostly looking for a SSH location in the directory where the package data is stored when installing. Thank you!

We are headed for a global economic debt crisis.
Freedom to borrow –> freedom to spend and innovate –> positive GDP growth rates, but over time as community-wide debt loads rise –> higher % income and % profit dedicated to debt repayment (lenders become increasingly wealthy) –> diminished spending –> businesses fail and unemployment rises –> more businesses and individuals are unable to repay debts (during this period, in countries where debt bondage and slavery are not options, lenders become bankrupt and fail) –> small losses in expected future gains can have dramatic results, because many households and businesses have little income, profits, or savings in relation to debt, and a popped debt bubble in any market –> spiraling debt deflation as even more businesses and individuals are unable to repay debts –> debt-reset in the form of community-wide, large-scale debt reduction with some combination of default, debt forgiveness, bankruptcy, poverty, policy changes, absorption of private debt into public sector, and/or inflation
