The Effects of Headphones on Listener HRTF Preference
Listener-selected HRTFs have the potential to provide the accuracy of an individualized HRTF without the time and resources required for HRTF measurements. This study tests listeners' HRTF preference for three different sets of headphones. HRTF datasets heard over the noise-cancelling Bose Aviation headset were selected as having good externalization more often than those heard over Sennheiser HD650 open headphones or Sony MDR-7506 closed headphones. It is thought that the Bose headset's flatter frequency response is responsible for its superior externalization. This suggests that in systems where high quality headphones are not available, post-processing equalization should be applied to account for the effect of the headphones on HRTF reproduction.

Piano on point ... now that's different!
Lovely model - is it a Steinway baby grand?
Lovely model - is it a Steinway baby grand?
Terrific original concept.
That's one way to hit the high notes
She looks hot and funny.
Doesn't one have to use the pedals on a piano as well?
Great idea
Marvelous! I'm at loss as what to comment.
well done
Brilliant work - so original and light!
seriously fun and original image. I looked at several pages of your work....all really excellent capture of the "dancer" as "spirit".....as a classic and playful. I have always wanted to do a ballet project...it is gymnastics with more poetry. Nice on many levels.
Everything looks more fabulous "on pointe" lol new life mantra.
What a great pose idea!
brilliant composition
OMFG I LOVE this
Any chance there's a hi-res version of this?
Great concept
Beautiful. Added to my group.
That's kind of weird way to play the piano.
I love this. I keep trying to get in touch with the ballet company here to try to shoot some of them. I've always thought these are some of the most graceful women in the world, and this is an excellent example.
do you have a portfolio you can show them?
I have a bit, but not much portrait work. I'm still trying to get them to respond to my emails. Next step is just going over there and trying to talk to someone. You have great access to your group of dancers, how did you get started with them?
Im so in love with this its ridiculous! love love love
I love her form. You got lucky with such an amazing dancer as your model.
Simply stunning, this is so captivating.
thanks! i'm glad you like it.
Oh, dear God... I couldn't imagine standing like that... beautiful shot!

In order to receive Steam Trading Cards, you must play a game for some period of time. Is it possible to keep the game open as you go run errands, and have the cards when you get back, or do you have to be actively playing the game to receive cards?
Steam Trading cards are given out based on time spent in-game. Steam doesn't have, for most games, any way to know whether or not you're actually doing anything, just whether you have the game running or not.
It is also interesting to note that you can run many games at the same time to get the trading cards, and you can even get them from game launchers if you want to conserve computer power.
Yes. You almost don't even have to idle. I got mine pretty much just for starting up portal 2. It's pretty much the same system they have for item drops in TF2
Yes you can, but there is a set number of trading cards that will drop per game, unless you get a booster pack, which contains three cards for a game, and will drop randomly when other people craft badges.
For all free games, like TF2, you have to spend money in game to get trading cards for it.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? So cryptic, so potentially interesting, so disappointing.
Must have been eHarmony.
Max is such a mother fucker! I've never liked him and in all honesty she could do better.
Gee, could she be a prostitute? And Christopher could have had sex with a lady.... well a lady of the night.
I know kids today are emo and guys today get such a kick out of girls who say and do weird shit like this, but call me jaded... I've got a reality check for you back here on Earth: she's probably batshit crazy.
Hey Christopher, what are you reading these days? Reading Thomas Mann's Magic Mountain.
She's been dating Max online for five months now. He lives in Spokane (supposedly) and they've made plans to meet up three times now, but he canceled the first two last-minute and he didn't bother canceling this one. She's written Dan two different letters seeking permission to DTMFA, but Dan doesn't publish her letters. This was Max's second-to-last chance.
At least, that's my guess.
very nine stories, christopher. nice!
'it was chemical'
i'm gonna steal that.
if it isn't Thomas Mann, or JD Salinger . . . and it HAS to be derivative of something (right . . . RIGHT?), then how about Miranda July? No, wait! Zadie Smith! No, no, Melville! Er, fuck. Flannery O'Connor? Philip K. Dick! Douglas Coupland! Richard Hugo! Dave Eggers! No, not Eggers. That other guy! The one I read sorta on the bus and before I went to sleep that one month when the internet was slow . . . uh, Gary Lutz? Damn it! I give up. Maybe it's just an interesting literary vignette on the Slog. No, no. Can't be. Toni Morrison! Rushdie! Joyce! Frizzelle! Just give me a little nod if I'm getting at all warmer. Louise Erdrich? Breton? New or Old Testament? Oh,fug. Damn you! Damn you and your cloudy influences! Just forget it! I'll get you next time! NEXT TIME!
Actually, Christopher, I think you are Max.
maybe she and "Max" were planning to poop in each others butts...
It just sounds like a typical Stranger fix up where the second person to arrive scopes out their blind date and just bales without any consideration of the other person's feelings. It's why I stopped doing personal ads.
My vote is Haruki Murakami. There is a similar scene in The Wind-up Bird Chronicle.
i agree with COMTE
You stay away from her or I'll cut you open like a tauntaun.

very good! definitely has cheesecake flavor from the cream cheese. last time, i doubled the recipe, and instead of using 2 8 oz packs of cream cheese, i used 1 pack of cream cheese and 8 oz plain greek lowfat yogurt. i also used about 2 cups of strawberries cut up, one cup blended in the base and 1 cup added at the end of churning. i think next time i will try adding some vanilla, but overall, delicious results!
My first ice cream in a long time, I even bought a new machine (makes the process a snap). Loved this and made a double batch with the previous suggestion to use the Greek yogurt and more strawberries. Thanks for the adaptation!
Didn't taste like it was missing a thing! This was sooooo good!
What a delicious dessert! We loved it. It tastes great but is easy on the calories... perfect. Made for Please Review my Recipe.

LAS VEGAS -- Opposites attract, right?
That is clearly one of the major reasons for the significant interest in the Shane Mosley-Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight, the biggest bout of the year so far.
Of course, Mayweather and welterweight champ Mosley rank among the best in the sport -- Nos. 2 and 3, respectively, behind Manny Pacquiao on most pound-for-pound lists, including ESPN.com's. Whenever the best fight the best, there will be massive interest, as will be the case when Mosley faces Mayweather on Saturday night (HBO PPV, $54.95, 9 ET) at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
But the divergent personalities of Mayweather and Mosley -- who are meeting because talks between Pacquiao and Mayweather fell apart earlier this year -- have certainly added to the interest in the bout.
Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer, who is promoting the fight, said at Wednesday's final news conference that not only does he believe that the fight has a chance to break the pay-per-view record of 2.46 million buys set by the 2007 showdown at the MGM Grand between Mayweather and Oscar De La Hoya, but he has dreams of 4 million.
To Mayweather, he and Mosley are "totally different" fighters, even though they each rely on considerable speed and skills.
"I think that he's a fighter that always worries about landing one big shot," Mayweather said. "He's worried about who is extremely strong and I worry about being smart and winning. So we approach fighting in two total different ways, always.
"I mean, Shane may be loading up with wide shots and kind of using not really a full jab and I use a fuller jab. You know when I shoot my shots, I look at my opponents and I look where I'm punching. When Shane punches a lot of times, he closes his eyes, if you go back and look at some of Shane's fights. So I think we are two total different fighters."
Are there any similarities?
"Yes," Mayweather said. "We're fighting May 1."
And there will be millions watching. While the fight is an intriguing matchup of well-known American stars, and also looms as Mayweather's stiffest test in years, the stark differences in their personalities is a big part of the attraction.
Mosley is somewhat modest and low-key. He isn't a big trash-talker -- never has been -- and he isn't followed around by a swollen entourage. His security detail consists of just one man. Mosley is also generally regarded as a sincerely nice guy.
Mayweather? Modest and low-key don't go in the same sentence. Not even in the same paragraph. He flaunts his jewelry and wads of cash without being prompted. He's a huge trash-talker -- always has been. His entourage, including a presidential-sized security detail, is large. Although Mayweather can certainly be a nice guy in quieter moments, publicly, at least, he embraces the villain role and portrays it to the hilt.
There was a time, however, when Mayweather, 33, apparently wanted to be like Mosley, 38, who was a few years ahead of Mayweather in his professional career during one meeting Mosley recounted.
Mayweather claimed a bronze medal in the 1996 Olympics before turning pro, not long before Mosley won a lightweight title in 1997, the first of his titles in three divisions. Mayweather would eventually win titles in five divisions, but back then Mosley said Mayweather looked up to him.
"I think he was just out of the Olympics and he was maybe 2-0, 3-0, something like that," Mosley said. "I came to his dressing room and I was telling him that he's a great fighter. I said, 'You're going to be world champion one day. You look real good.' And he's was like, 'Oh, man, thank you.' Basically he was just saying, 'You're doing good, too.' I think I was the champion then or I was getting ready to be the champion. He said, 'Hopefully if I can be just like you, it will be great, if I can win a title and all that stuff.' So we were both giving each other props and stuff about how good we were. That was it.
"He just wanted to have the accomplishments that I had accomplished in my professional career. He said, 'If I can have those accomplishments then I'd be happy too, if I can be like you and have all the accomplishments that I have.' I don't know if [he wanted to be] exactly like me per se, but just the accomplishments and everything I've done in my boxing career at that time, he was impressed with and he let me know that then."
Not so much anymore.
Instead, Mayweather has belittled Mosley's considerable accomplishments and maintained absolute confidence going into the fight, usually pointing to his undefeated record, even though he's been heavily criticized for hand-picking his opponents since moving up to junior welterweight in 2004.
Mosley (46-5, 39 KOs) will be the first elite welterweight Mayweather (40-0, 25 KOs) will have faced, but Mayweather's confidence is supreme.
"There is a blueprint to beat him because he has lost five times already," Mayweather said. "But there is no blueprint to beat me. I think he feels the pressure. I don't have any pressure. I am just getting ready to fight.
"Mosley has problems with boxers. He lost to Winky Wright [twice] from a one-handed jab in his face all night long. Now he is facing someone sharp as a razor with two hands. He has been dropped [once] and wobbled on numerous occasions. If he tries to bum-rush me, he is going to get clipped. No one has a chance to beat me. All of these fighters do the same interviews, talking about how they are going to beat me. Guess what? Same interviews, same results. It hasn't happened yet."
Unlike most of Mayweather's past opponents, Mosley hasn't been goaded into trash talking. He's remained calm in the wake of vicious verbal attacks by Mayweather and his uncle and trainer, Roger Mayweather, including seemingly daily reminders of Mosley's admitted involvement with Victor Conte and the BALCO scandal.
Mosley admitted under oath at a grand jury that he had used performance-enhancing drugs before his 2003 rematch with De La Hoya, but he also agreed to Mayweather's stipulation for making the fight that they use random urine and blood testing as performed under the strict policy of the United States Anti-Doping Agency.
So far, both fighters have been blood and urine tested multiple times during the lead up to Saturday's fight. Keith Kizer, the executive director of the Nevada Athletic Commission, said Wednesday that USADA officials have forwarded him results from all of the random testing done so far and all the results have been clean. Kizer said Mosley has been tested 11 times and Mayweather 10 times, with about half for each fighter being blood tests and the other half urine tests.
"At this point, I'm not angered by it," Mosley said of Mayweather's PED talk. "I'm just trying to go to the fight and be the best I can be in the fight. Right now at this point, we're getting ready to fight now."
Naazim Richardson, who is training Mosley for the second fight after guiding him to a ninth-round upset knockout of Antonio Margarito to win a welterweight title in January 2009, steadfastly defends Mosley against the Mayweathers' attack.
"When you bring up the boxer, talk about the boxer, but if every time you crack your mouth open you're running your mouth about some nonsense from before, then everybody's going to start asking questions about everything," said Richardson, alluding to Mayweather's past admission that he had his brittle hands injected with a numbing agent before past fights.
"If we kept it on boxing, you all never heard me step out of the line of boxing because I don't care about none of this other nonsense about nothing else but boxing," Richardson said. "That's all that's important to me. I don't consider Floyd to be nothing but a great athlete. I don't consider even the kid they were talking about before, Pacquiao, to be nothing but a great athlete. If I don't have any proof on anybody about anything, I won't say anything.
"Shane has never tested positive for anything. He agreed to the test, but now every time they bring his name up, you've still got to hear about steroids this and steroids that. OK, the man already agreed to your test. What do you want him to do for you now? He's not going to lay down for you. Is that just some mental [thing]?"
Mosley simply isn't taking Mayweather's bait.
"I know me not reacting to his antics or whatever, that's just me blocking all that stuff out and wanting to fight," Mosley said. "I don't really care about the different things that are being said. That doesn't really matter. What matters is the fight and what happens in the fight. So that's my whole interest and I kind of block all that other stuff out.
"I think a lot of people who have fought Floyd have let his talking get to them and they go into the fight angry. They are fighting with their emotions when they are in the ring. I'm not going to do that. I know how I want to fight Floyd and I know what I want to happen, so I am going to do what I have to do to win."
The desire to win -- one thing at least that they do have in common.

Many years ago, when my father was a member of the Salt Lake City Letter Carriers band, they had chartered a bus to play at a Letter Carriers Union convention back east. Their route home took them through the Rochester area, but they had not paid the extra cost for staying long enough to see the pageant. Their bus had a flat tire in Palmyra, and had to wait for a replacement to be driven out, so they got to stay for the pageant.

I was there on that Friday evening with a friend of my daughters and his parents. We were both so excited to introduce them to the Book of Mormon with hopes they would take an interest. We sat in our seats huddled under umbrella's and almost soaked to the skin when it was decided this weather was looking too dangerous on the local radar, we left. Feeling sad we rode home together. With promises of another try next year I was dropped off home, grateful for the wisdom of parents, and the wisdom of church leaders. Next year hopefully my daughter's friend and parents will be visitors again, this time with a nice referral for the missionaries.

I experienced one of those so-called "urban legend" events personally as a pageant participant in 1969. As the first notes of pageant music began, the rain stopped. As the final notes died away, the rain began again. The faith and prayers of the participants and the pre-performance prayer of a visiting General Authority were heard by a loving Father.

I was way disappointed when I saw the Pageant. Maybe it had been overhyped, I
don't know. Maybe we didn't have good seats?
All the music and narration was pre-recorded. People just up on "stage" waving their arms around etc.
I hope I'm the exception, not the rule.

Although it isn't urban legend, rain does typically start and stop and then start again. There is nothing magical about it, and I doubt god is the one making it happen. It just happens naturally. What about the times where the rain comes and doesn't leave in time for the show to continue.... It is just the luck of the draw.

We attended the pageant every year during the six years we lived in Maryland. On
at least two occassions, the "urban legend" occurred, with the rain
stopping just before the pageant was to begin, and starting again immediately
after the pageant.
Tender mercies to some; random events to others.

My family was involved with the Nauvoo "City of Joseph" pageant for many years. I personally have witnessed this miracle many times; torrential rains stopped just before the show began, only to begin pouring after the crowds had left, black storm clouds stayed on the Iowa side of the Mississippi until the show ended, and even one night there was a clear, star-filled sky with a moon over Nauvoo, while all around storm clouds billowed and poured rain. The Lord will allow His work to be done! Prayers ARE heard and miracles DO happen.

To Truthseeker: Back in 1996 I was in upstate New York on business. I had tickets to fly home before the scheduled first night of the pageant, but I discovered that there was a full dress rehearsal the night before. I was virtually alone in the seats that evening. I was impressed, not just with the music and the special effects, but also with the enchanting way the story was told in the script by Orson Scott Card. I recommend you go back for another viewing of the pageant.

Unwieldy Toaster, your observations seems to hold true with the Hopi Indian
tribe. They seem to be very successful with their rain dances. And how about the
LDS Conference urban legend?
The miracle may be in the rain itself. Without it, upper New York State would not be a beautiful Eastern Woodlands forest, and the entire Southwestern United States would be Death Valley expanded.
I learned a long time ago to let the Lord decide what miracles to provide and when to provide them. Buses do break down, thunderstorms come, and life goes on. The important thing is how we react to the experiences we are given--and when all turns out well, strengthening our faith, that's a miracle in itself.

My daughter shared this story with me last week in her weekly letter as she is a
missionary in the New York Rochester Mission. They gave the kids a tour of the
historical sites the next day (morning after the pageant was cancelled) and when
she learned that they would not get to see it (as they assumed), proceeded to
act out scenes for them from the pageant. She is always the happy and creative
sister missionary. I think it cheered the kids up until they all learned they
would get to see the pageant after all.
As a young person during the 60's of about 12 or 13 myself, we traveled back to Palmyra and saw the pageant. I remember the rains dumping on us until the first note of the pageant music. It stopped and not another drop until the final note and then it dropped on us again. I really don't believe in coincidences.
So sorry for anyone that doesn't find the pageant to be a moving experience. It all depends on the spirit you bring with you, I guess.

Another comment, if I may--we had a similar experience with bad weather and
buses on a trek to Martin's Cove. As a result, a few of the preliminary
activities we had planned were cancelled. But the delay of the buses and the bad
weather actually allowed us to reflect on the circumstances of the original
handcart companies--delayed by unready handcarts, the usually perils along the
trail, and then the storms came--a snowy blizzard rather than our insignificant
We also had necessity of moving our girls camp one year at the last minute due to a forest fire in the camp's area--and the food supply got left behind, requiring scanty rations for the week.
These conditions all added to the aura of the trek/camp experience--probably not at the level of an honest-to-goodness miracle, but a learning experience just as well!

I believe in these "tender mercies"!
For Father's Day several years back, a group of my friends (almost all atheists) scheduled a round of golf, a gift from my wife and family.
As the date approached, the forecast was for heavy but spotty rains. The morning of the event, I awoke to thunderstorms, but prepared to go to the outing anyway. As we approached the clubhouse, with strong desires that the rain subside (but absolutely no uttered "prayers" to any fictional deity), suddenly and without warning, the rain stopped, the sun burst through, and we were able to enjoy a wonderful round of golf, with only a few soggy puddles here and there.
Almost as soon as the clubhouse was in our rear view mirror, the rain broke loose and came down in torrents!
Of course, we all just attributed it to the vicissitudes of natural weather - but some people see fictitious creatures on the clouds, others see some higher "plan" in the lines on the palms of their hands, and still others consider the constellations of stars to influence their personalities.
But that isn't science, and it isn't truth.

You really think that god is stopping the rain for a pageant to continue, at the same time as he is allowing children to starve and die in other parts of the world. Kind of cruel if that is the case.

I've attended the pageant many times and every single time it's rained just before it started. The benches and blankets on them would be wet! The last time I was able to go,I looked up at the sky during the pageant (and yes, it had been raining but did stop) and saw clear sky above, stars shining, and on either side were big dark clouds. It reminded me of the parting of the Red Sea! When the pageant ended and we were walking to our cars, the clouds moved together and it poured!

Note: While bullfighting is a significant part of Spanish culture and history, its practice is contrary to our Responsible Travel philosophy. Intrepid does not support or attend bullfights, as the bulls are subject to torment and fear and are often killed inhumanely. Long a controversial issue in Spain, a landmark decision in July 2010 banned bullfighting in the state of Catalonia from January 2012.

Can an electric wheelchair keep up with a trotting horse?
Nick Svensen can confirm, the answer to that particular
question is: ''No''.
The 19-year-old University of Otago law and commerce student
''bunked'' law lectures yesterday to test his hypothesis at
the Otago Anniversary dual code race day at Wingatui.
And even though he gave himself a 50m head start on the home
straight, the horses caught him within 20m, he said.
The loss did not seem to lower Mr Svensen's spirits. In fact,
he was revelling in the day's activities.
''We decided to bunk lectures. Today was too good an
opportunity to pass up.
''We all love horse racing and this is a better thing to do
than spend the day inside playing PlayStation.''
He and his flatmates were having such a good time, they were
left wondering how to tell their landlord they did not have
enough money to pay the rent this week.
''We've blown it all on the races,'' he said.
The Aucklander has multicore myopathy, an inability to
generate muscle tissue, which has kept him in a wheelchair
for most of his life.
He said when he was born he was one of only about 50 people
in the world who had been diagnosed with the condition.
Mr Svensen was one of an estimated 800 people who attended
the race day, which included an unusual mixture of trots and

Will High Gasoline Prices Eat Into The Restaurant Stocks? 0 comments
As we all know by now, the United States Gasoline Fund (NYSEARCA:UGA) has soared higher since December 19, 2012. At that time, the UGA was trading around the $45.50 level. Earlier this week, the UGA hit a new 52 week high at $57.22 a share before pulling back slightly. This morning, the UGA is trading higher by 0.46 cents to $55.95 a share. Traders and investors have to wonder if the high energy prices will start to affect the economic spending habits of consumers. Normally, high energy prices will have a negative effect on consumers spending and the restaurant stocks can be some of the first stocks to be affected.
Yum Brands Inc (NYSE:YUM), Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc (NYSE:CMG), Panera Bread Co (NASDAQ:PNRA), and Buffalo Wild Wings Inc (NASDAQ:BWLD) have been very strong and market leaders recently. These stocks could be directly affected by the high energy prices in the near term. Other leading restaurant stocks such as McDonalds Corp (NYSE:MCD), and Wendys Co (NYSE:WEN) could benefit since they have cheaper items on their menu. It is important to note that all of the restaurant stocks are holding up well on the daily charts and have not been affected by the high energy prices yet.

MIAMI (May 20, 2013)--A Burmese python that measures 18-feet-8-inches has been captured in South Florida, a record for the longest Burmese python caught in the wild in Florida.
The previous record was a 17-foot-7-inch python caught in August in Everglades National Park.
According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the snake was caught May 11 alongside a road in rural Miami-Dade County.
Wildlife officials said Monday that a Miami man spotted about 3 feet of the snake sticking out of the roadside brush, grabbed it, and started dragging it into the open.
When the snake began to wrap itself around his leg, he called to his friends for help and then used a knife to kill it.
The python weighed 128 pounds.

Hustler's contract star Mya Luanna is hot, this much is for sure. The Asian beauty lays down a great scene with Van Damage, and glimpsing her "dark side," as the title suggests, is reason enough to get this movie on its own.
As it turns out, the sexy Luanna has a great back-up cast of starlets, too. The voluptuous Adrianna Nicole has tits for days, as she takes a ride with her backside.
The title's final scene - a killer threeway between Luanna, Joelean and Alektra Blue - puts the pervert stamp of approval on this one.
Pre-noms: Best New Starlet (Mya Luanna).
Retailing: Fans of Luanna (read: hot Asian chicks) need this title.

Republican Gov. Jan Brewer decided late Wednesday to veto a bill that would have given business owners the right to refuse service to gays, lesbians and other people on religious grounds.
Her action came amid mounting pressure from across the spectrum, including members of the Republican establishment — former presidential candidate Mitt Romney, Gov. Rick Scott of Florida, and others — who sided with the bill's opponents.
With three Republican state lawmakers who had voted for the measure now saying they oppose it, the bill is not expected to garner enough support to overcome the veto, which would require two-thirds of the votes in the Legislature.

Palace opened the scoring through Glenn Murray, who bundled home after eight minutes but Forest levelled on the stroke of half-time thanks to Andy Reid's superb finish from 25 yards.
Murray restored the advantage with nine minutes remaining with a precision, looping header, but Billy Sharp had the final say in added time, tapping in after his shot struck a post.
"I thought there was a lot of fighting spirit among the players. To their credit they went all the way to the final whistle", McLeish said.
"They could easily have put their heads down after Palace had taken the lead again in the last 10 minutes but they fought right to the death and that shows great character.
"I also saw some great quality on the field. Andy Reid was fantastic - what a game he had, and he was instrumental in the two goals. The one he scored was a peach."
McLeish, who took charge of his first game following the sacking of Sean O'Driscoll, thanked the City Ground for getting behind the team.
"Even when we went behind late on there was a great response from us and I was delighted with the crowd too. They appreciated what the players were doing and I think the excitement they created gave the fans the impetus to roar us on."

Lost in the fine print of Friday's deluge of high school football results was Concord First Assembly's 26-0 victory over Durham Mt. Zion Friday night. In that one, First Assembly coach Mike Minter moved safety Brandon Stegall to cornerback, telling the 6-foot-1, 185-pound Stegall to shadow Tehvyn Brantley, Mt. Zion's ace receiver but just 5-8 and 165 pounds, everywhere.
Few top-ranked defenders have been able to stop Brantley at camps and combines this summer, but Stegall, who spent much of the summer battling mononucleosis, was up to the challenge, holding Brantley to no catches.
Mt. Zion threw to Brantley five times, and Stegall broke them all up. At one point, he hit Brantly so hard that he knocked his helmet off.
Minter said this morning, "After the game, that kid told Brandon that he was the best DB he ever played against."
Stegall also played quarterback, and rushed for 100 yards and two TDs out of his team's spread offense.
According to Brandon's dad Randy, a large number of schools, including Virginia Tech, N.C. State, Duke and Florida State, had expressed interest in his son, but the mono threw everything off-track.
Now Brandon is healthy again, and things should be picking up.

Using functional traits together with abundance effects strengthens the prediction of interactions between pairs of species in ecological networks. Insights into the way species interact as well as prediction accuracy can be gained when thresholds for trait value combinations that make interactions possible are optimized through model selection. I present novel data of two subalpine plant–pollinator communities and build several stochastic models integrating flower abundance and morphological threshold rules that allow or restrict interactions between species. The number of correctly predicted interactions was highest when thresholds were set so that the insect's proboscis was not shorter than the nectar-holder depth minus 1–1.6 mm, and not wider than the nectar-holder width minus 0.5 mm. In comparison with models based solely on plant abundance effects, the model incorporating optimized size thresholds better predicted the distribution of the trait differences between plants and insects. This indicates that a mechanistic approach of interaction webs based on optimized size thresholds provides valuable information on community structure. The possible implications for community functioning are discussed.

Pretests and posttests on the topic of evolution by natural selection were administered to students in a college nonmajors' biology course. Analysis of test responses revealed that most students understood evolution as a process in which species respond to environmental conditions by changing gradually over time. Student thinking differed from accepted biological theory in that (a) changes in traits were attributed to a need-driven adaptive process rather than random genetic mutation and sexual recombination, (b) no role was assigned to variation on traits within a population or differences in reproductive success, and (c) traits were seen as gradually changing in all members of a population. Although students had taken an average of 1.9 years of previous biology courses, performance on the pretest was uniformly low. There was no relationship between the amount of previous biology taken and either pretest or posttest performance. Belief in the truthfulness of evolutionary theory was also unrelated to either pretest or posttest performance. Course instruction using specially designed materials was moderately successful in improving students' understanding of the evolutionary process.

While thinking about the current state of the Houston Rockets yesterday, I thought to myself: "Why isn't there any talk about Joey Dorsey?" When I went to look at his player profile, I stumbled upon an interesting observation. It seems that no one can come to an agreement on exactly what Dorsey's exact height is!
The Baltimore native was chosen as the 33rd overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft by the Portland Trailblazers who traded his rights to the Houston Rockets for the 25th pick, Nicolas Batum.
Upon going to NBA.com, I figured I was going to see the same information as I saw on Wikipedia, but I was wrong. Here were the official listings on each website:
Wikipedia's Height Listing (6-7, 272 lbs)
NBA.com Height Listing (6-8, 268 lbs)
Memphis Tigers Height Listing (6-9, 265 lbs)
Now, to the credit of ESPN.com and Houston Rockets.com, they have Dorsey listed at 6-8 and 268 lbs. One would have to conclude that what's listed on a player's place of employment would be what someone should go by, right? Why then would Memphis list him as being an inch taller than he is and why would Wikipedia show him as being two inches shorter than what was listed on Memphis' official website?
What makes it even more interesting is if you look at Dorsey's profile on ESPN.com. While playing at Memphis, the school has him listed at 6-9 and 265 lbs. ESPN College Height Listing
Just a little food for thought, but let's dive into a more pertinent issue: why isn't anyone talking about what Dorsey could bring to the Rockets in the 2009-2010 season?
Dorsey came into the league with Ben Wallace comparisons as a potential anchor on the defensive end with a wide body and a nasty attitude in the post.
The athletic big man averaged 6.6 points, 7.6 rebounds and shot 60.3 percent from the floor in his three year career with Memphis. He had 16 double-doubles and 37 double- digit rebounding games. His efforts garnered him the Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year along with conference all-defensive team honors in 2006-2007.
The Rockets traded for Dorsey to add to their tough defensive presence, but he missed the majority of the season dealing with of severe case of plantar fasciitis in his left foot. The injury bug limited him to only six minutes of regular season play.
Dorsey was very impressive on the boards during the NBA's Summer League in Las Vegas last month.
Through the first three games, he averaged 14.3 rebounds to go along with 9.7 points and 2.7 blocks while playing 30 minutes per game. The Rockets have every intention of Dorsey making the team, especially with the absence of Yao Ming and the recent retirement of long-time NBA great Dikembe Mutumbo.
At a time when the Rockets need all the help they can get, Dorsey could provide a big lift to the gaping hole in the Rockets' defense with loss of center Yao for the entire 2009-2010 season. It's expected that he might not be nearly as effective on the offensive end, but the Rockets will have to make due.
Information was used from NBA.com, Wikipedia.com and the official Memphis Tigers' website GoTigersGo.com.

Mediator used in dam disputeMarch 24,2014Staff Report
VERNON — Two Vermont towns on the Connecticut River and the energy giant TransCanada will use a mediator as part of an effort to agree on the value of hydroelectric dams in Vernon and Rockingham so they can avoid a trial.
A spokesman for TransCanada Hydro Northeast said the company is appealing an "increase in property taxes" on four Vermont generating stations, Vernon and Rockingham, and two in the Northeast Kingdom.
The state and town appraise the Vernon dam at almost $40 million. TransCanada claims it's worth just under $21 million. Vermont appraises the Bellows Falls dam at $108 million, TransCanada says $62 million.
TransCanada's Davis Sheremata told the Brattleboro Reformer that they're hopeful for a settlement.

WHISKEY KNIFE returns on the 23rd August for an incredibly special and intimate gig featuring Manchester's finest DUTCH UNCLES.
Warming up for their Leeds and Reading Festival shows the following weekend Dutch Uncles will be supported by 2 of Leeds' best up and coming bands HEART-SHIPS (also warming up for Leeds and Reading) and PRETTY RIDDLES.
**DUTCH UNCLES** - https://www.facebook.com/dutchuncles
What needs saying about Marple's finest that hasn't already been said. Fresh from the release of their 2nd album, Cadenza, Dutch Uncles have been wowing crowds all over. Signed to Memphis Industries (The Go! Team, Tokyo Police Club) Dutch Uncles over time have been compared to the likes of Talking Heads, The Smiths and XTC. The band will be heading straight off to the Leeds and Reading Festival, playing on the Festival Republic Stage.
Make sure you get down as this is a very intimate and one off performance.
Watch Cadenza here - http://youtu.be/TMti9fN0VBQ
Listen to Dutch Uncles here - http://soundcloud.com/dutch-uncles
**HEART-SHIPS** - https://www.facebook.com/pages/Heart-Ships/107484909321753
Fitting somewhere between Sunset Rubdown at their most raucous, Modest Mouse, The Microphones and Patrick Wolf; Heart Ships are a Leeds based band, playing together since December 2009. Disillusioned after several half arsed attempts to form bands proper, Ryan and Winterbird pledged to one another that they'd jam the most lawless, anything goes music they could muster until something magical happened. The result is a 6 piece with a live show nothing short of incendiary.
Heart-Ships recently came in the final 6 of the 2011 Futuresound competition meaning they'll be heading off to play Leeds and Reading Festival the following weekend.
Listen to Heart-Ships here - http://www.myspace.com/heartships
**PRETTY RIDDLES** - https://www.facebook.com/prettyriddles
The final band on the bill are Leeds based 4 piece Pretty Riddles. Taking influence from the likes of The Velvet Underground, The Stones, Dylan and The Strokes Pretty Riddles have been hitting the live circuit hard since forming in 2010. The band have been building a strong following and are sure to get the gig off to a cracking start.
Listen to Pretty Riddles here - http://www.myspace.com/prettyriddlestheband
Also featuring DJ sets from Ali Tant & Harry Johns.
Thanks to Dan Bell for the poster design.

Sorry for the confusing title...
I've been playing around with C++, working on a project to parse a game's (Kerbal Space Program) save file so I can modify it and eventually send it over a network. I'm stuck with storing an unknown number of vessels and crew members, so I need to have an array of unknown size.
Is this possible? I figured having a pointer to an array would be the way to go.
I have:
class SaveFileSystem
string version;
string UT;
int activeVessel;
int numCrew;
??? Crews; // !!
int numVessels;
??? Vessels; // !!
Where Crews and Vessels should be arrays of structures:
struct Crew
string name;
//Other stuff
struct Vessel
string name;
I'm guessing I should have something like:
this->Crews = new ???;
this->Vessels = new ???;
in my constructor to initialize the arrays, and attempt to access it with:
this->Crews[0].name = "Ship Number One";
Does this make any sense??? I'd expect the "???"'s to involve a mess of asterisk's, like "*struct (*)Crews" but I have no real idea. I've got normal pointers down and such, but this is a tad over my head... I'd like to access the structures like in the last snippet, but if C++ doesn't like that I could do pointer arithmetic.
I've looked into vectors, but I have an unhealthy obsession with efficiency, and it really pains me how you don't know what's going on behind it.

This week, Marc and I are thankful our show hasn't been canceled.
I kid.
On the serious side, this week sees Georgia in a unique situation with national title aspirations on the line against Georgia Tech.
Marc and I touch on Georgia's defense getting a look at the triple-option offense last week, how the Bulldogs plan to stop Tech's previous success at Sanford Stadium and how the team, or at least coach Mark Richt, has blocked out talk of a BCS title with two games yet to win.

Georgia took just more than a minute to score on Saturday and left little in doubt in a 42-10 victory over Georgia Tech.
So let's take a quick look back at what the Bulldogs did so well and a look forward at what Georgia players and coaches are saying about what's next — the SEC championship game and a potential shot at the BCS title.

The Georgia Dome hasn't been the friendliest of places for the Bulldogs.
Alabama defeated Georgia 32-28 there on Saturday to win the SEC championship and advance to the BCS title game.
In this episode, we discuss what Georgia players and coaches said about the Bulldogs' final drive, what went right and what went wrong for Georgia and where the Bulldogs may end up when the bowls shake out Sunday night.

AUGUSTA — Former Georgia Russell Henley's hoping for a blast on his birthday while fellow former Bulldog Bubba Watson will be battling on the bubble today at Augusta National Golf Club.
By: Chris White on April 12, 2013 - 5:45pm - Add new comment
AUGUSTA — Russell Henley's first trip to play in the Masters Tournament will end with him watching.
The former University of Georgia golfer struggled driving the ball and shot a 9-over 81 in Friday's second round for a 36-hole 9-over 153.
Fred Couples leads the group finished with the second round at 5 under, and other golfers still on the course Friday afternoon are capable of going lower, all but guaranteeing Henley will miss the cut. Only the top 50, including ties, and those within 10 strokes of the leader will play on the weekend.

AUGUSTA — Bubba Watson began his day with a head full of steam but faltered near the finish for a 2-under 70 in the third round of the Masters Tournament.
The score puts the defending Masters champion and former Georgia golfer at 2 over through 54 holes and eight shots behind leader Jason Day, who tees off at 2:45 p.m. in a group with Fred Couples, who along with Marc Leishman, sits a shot behind the lead.
Watson birdied the first three holes, shot par the rest of the way through the turn and birdied No. 10 to reach even par for the tournament.

Trail Mix Sourdough Bread
Total Time
Prep 2 hrs 45 mins
Cook 40 mins
For this recipe I used a Kitchen Aide Mixer to mix and knead the dough. You can of course do it by hand or you can follow your bread machines instructions for Bread with Mix-ins. I have not tried using this recipe in a bread machine so I do not know what the outcome will be! I used 6 cups of flour, but you may need to adjust to make the dough just stiff enough to handle.Do not add to much flour. The prep time includes rising time.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄2 cup sourdough starter
- 2 cups warm water
- 1⁄3 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 6 cups bread flour
- 2 teaspoons rosemary, chopped
- 1⁄4 cup dried cranberries, packed
- 1⁄4 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1 large green onion, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons pimientos, jarred, roughly chopped
- 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- In your kitchenaide mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, mix together all of the bread ingedients, except the flour, until blended. Add the flour 2 cups at a time until the dough comes together and you can touch it without it completely sticking to your fingers. A little sticky is ok as long as you can pick it up in one ball.
- Knead with the dough hook for 8 minutes. Then remove and place the dough in a large greased bowl, making sure all the dough has been lightly coated with grease. Cover and let rise until double in size, this took about 2 hours for me.
- While the dough is rising, mix together the filling ingrdients and set aside in the refrigerator.
- Once the dough has doubled pour the filling over the dough and punch down, mixing the filling into the dough as you fold dough over itself.
- Turn the dough out onto a very well floured surface. Knead the dough about 12 times to get the filling well combined int he dough. Mixing the filling in will get kind of messy so use lots of flour to help!
- Cut the dough half and shape each peice into a large round loaf. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet and let rise a second time. This will take about 30 minutes, or until the loafs have almost doubled(about 1.5 times bigger).
- Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, then if you like a crispy crust turn heat to 400 and bake for 10 more minutes.
- I turned my second loaf into crutons, which were really really good!

I also had problems finding out how to treat the sour dough. I used my bread machine to make this and even though i used the "whole wheat" program for it the bread came out very moist so i had to bake it additionally. I liked the outcome though and used it with a ground beef casarolle for dinner and with cream cheese and tomato sandwiches the next day. The spices were great but i will skip the cranberries next time i make it. Susie D´s suggestion to make buns out of this sound awesome! Thank you for sharing, this is a recipe i will work with!

Even with a few problems this ended up being a contest favorite. My family told me not to lose this recipe! I elected to make a half batch in a bread machine. The problems: No indication is given on proofing the sourdough so I measured it right out of my stash in the fridge. As the other recipes I've used still called for yeast I added 2 1/2 t. I ended up needing an extra half cup of flour in the ABM. After the dough cycle I divided it into 8 circles and placed on a greased baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal. It rose about 30 minutes & then baked. The result was eight lightly browned and beautiful 6 inch buns. The texture is very light & fluffy. It really is one of the best breads texture wise I've made lately. The buns are studded with jewel like colors from the dried cranberries, nuts, green onions, & pimentos. Next time I will dry the pimentos before cutting as they smeared colorwise somewhat, but I think it was the dampness straight out of the jar. I used the buns today with shaved roast turkey, but the buns will be a good match flavorwise with other meats as well. The rosemary wasn't overpowering in this recipe. I will use this recipe again! Good luck in the contest!
