Fawlty Towers Live
Original Python John Cleese is bringing one of his most beloved works, the 1980s TV sitcom Fawlty Towers, to the stage – 41 years after it premiered on the BBC. Written by and co-starring Cleese and his then-wife actress Connie Booth, the series pitched its tent in the world's worst hotel, run by the world's rudest hotelier and his incompetent staff. Cleese's character Basil Fawlty and his establishment were inspired by a hotel that Monty Python's members stayed in while filming in the British riviera town of Torquay during the early 1970s. It's not so strange that Cleese would bring Fawlty Towers to stage – in fact popular improv-style dinner-theatre versions of it already exist around the world. But it is perhaps unusual that he's chosen to premiere the show in Sydney. The production, which is currently being cast by Cleese, is produced by Michael Coppel, Phil McIntyre and Louise Withers, and will spearhead a national tour through Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane. Tickets for Fawlty Towers Live go on sale Feb 19 from 9am.

Sydney Opera House
This Australian icon sits on Bennelong Point and is Sydney's premiere venue for classical and contemporary music, opera, theatre and dance. As peaceful as it looks now, the House had a controversial beginning: while it was designed by Danish architect Jørn Utzon, by the time the building was completed in 1973 its architect had been fired. Many have pondered the building's design over the years, comparing it variously to shells, waves and even a family of swans. Utzon never revealed his vision, only that it involved spheres. The Opera House offers different tours that allow you to get intimate with the building, including some hosted in different languages and full 'experience' packages. If you don't feel like shelling out, it's still free to sit on the steps for a quick lunch and walk by the water and gaze in marvel at those 1,056,000 pearly, self-cleaning Swedish tiles. Where to eat and drink near Sydney Opera House For the ultimate Opera House dining experience, book a pre-theatre dinner at Bennelong, or just pop in for a drink and a snack at the raw and cultured bar. Check out the Opera Kitchen, a harbourfront dining area that features a host of Sydney food identities including John Susman. Meander around to Bulletin Place for cocktails. Later in the evening kick the glamour up a notch at Hemmesphere and enjoy matched cigars and more cocktails into the morning.

Sydney Theatre Company
It's Andrew's final season, so one might expect him to throw caution to the winds and get some wish-list i tems out of the way. Overall it's a rather demure season as far as Big Names, with the exception of Rose Byrne, who will be fronting Andrew's production of David Mamet'sSpeed-the-Plow. But there's plenty of top shelf local thesp talent – like Robyn Nevin, Sarah Peirse and Helen Thomson; and there are actors made popular on screen returning to the STC stage – including Lisa McCune, Ryan Corr, John Howard and Lachy Hulme. But there's no William Hurt, Phillip Seymour Hoffman or Steven Soderbergh. And we'll miss Hugo, Rox and Cate. The big international star of the season is British director Rupert Goold (Enron, Macbeth), now artistic director of London's Almeida Theatre. He'll be bringing his hit West End production of Mike Bartlett's King Charles III to Sydney. Also heading down under from the UK are 1927, with their take on the Golem myth. For an Australian classic, we get Louis Nowra's Golden Age; for new work, there are premieres by Sue Smith (Kryptonite), Angela Betzien (The Dark Room), and a portmanteau of new works by emerging playwrights Melissa Bubnic, Michele Lee, Nakkiah Lui and Debra Thomas – with a fifth from veteran Hannie Rayson. The Secret River, arguably Cate and Andrew's greatest programming achievement in their tenure, returns. For new international work: besides King Charles III from the UK, Upton is bringing Pulitzer Prize winner Disgraced, from the
Belvoir St Theatre
This once shabby tomato sauce factory is now the entirely respectable Belvoir St Theatre, home of company Belvoir, which stages productions in its intimate 350-seat Upstairs Theatre and its more intimate 80-seat Downstairs Theatre.
Riverside Theatres
Each year this western Sydney cultural hub hosts an exciting programme of theatre, dance, opera, circus, musicals and solo shows. The theatre is also a NT Live screening venue, so throughout the year you can catch London's National Theatre productions screened live in HD. Visit the Riverside Theatres website for the full 2014 program.
Worth visiting for the space alone, Carriageworks is the latest incarnation of the Eveleigh Rail Yards. Built in the 1880s, its cavernous interiors are faithfully preserved, giving it a limitlessness very different from the plush cocoons of most theatres. With a program of large-scale theatre, dance and installation works, and as a host of the experimental and cross-disciplinary theatre company Performance Space, Sydney Chamber Opera and Moogahlin Performing Arts, Carriageworks is gaining a reputation as the venue for the most progressive Sydney drama, dance and art.

Wildlife Photographer of the Year
The Wildlife Photographer of the Year awards and exhibition showcase not only the best of the natural world, but the patience, ingenuity and talent of the photographers who spend their time embedded within wildlife so that they can get that incredible, revealing shot. Previously held at the Australian Museum, this year's exhibition, showcasing the best of wildlife photography in 2015, is taking place at the Australian National Maritime Museum. Wrestling komodo dragons, ethereal egrets and thirsty squirrels are among the creatures captured on camera by this year's finalists. Judged by a panel of industry-recognised professionals, the images were taken by some of the world's best nature photographers and selected for their creativity, artistry and technical complexity. Among the 100 images on show is Australian explorer and conservation photographer Michael AW's 'Under Water' category winner (pictured): a photograph of a Bryde's whale in the middle of a feeding frenzy, taken off the east coast of South Africa. Entry is by a Special Exhibition ticket that also grants visitors access into another key exhibition at the Maritime Museum, Ships, Clocks & Stars: The Quest for Longitude, which is on loan for a limited season from the Natural History Museum, London.
Bledisloe Cup Charity Lunch
Cross-Tasman rivalries are sharpening up once more with the annual New Zealand vs Australia rugby union clash the Bledisloe Cup this August. This year the Bledisloe Cup Charity Lunch is taking place at Beer DeLuxe in King Street Wharf, hosted by Phillip Cornwell and featuring special guest former rugby union star (and current Balmain coach) Matt Dunning.

From Akasha Brewing there's a cap, T-shirt and brewery tour on offer (the tour includes a complimentary tasting paddle). There's also a tour on offer from Wayward Brewing – to which the winning bidder can bring 20 mates, including tastings. Time Out is also getting in on the charity spirit with two gift bags, each including bottles of white wine and red wine, a six-month subscription to Time Out Sydney magazine, and a copy of the Time Out Sydney Pub Guide 2016. If you love craft beer almost as much as you love your rugby then you're going to want to get along to this – but book now to avoid disappointment. The very deserving charity benefiting from the event is Bear Cottage – the only children's hospice in NSW.

I'm having problems with making all file location paths relative in XCode 4.
I have multiple infoPlist.strings and CustomLocalizable.strings (for different languages) grouped together (XCode does this automatically). When looking at the File Inspector (View >> Utilities >> Show File Inspector) for these files (except for the English which is the default language) the Location is 'Absolute Path'.
The problem is that the Location dropdown menu for these files in the File Inspector is grayed out, it's disabled. This keeps me from changing the file location from an absolute path to a relative path description.
What do I need to do to make all path locations of the files in the group relative?
I have already tried to change the path location of the file group to, for instance, 'relative to group' or 'relative to project'. For the group I also set the relative path clicking the small icon blow the location dropdown in the file inspector.
I've been searching to find a solution for a while now and appreciate if anyone could help me answer the above question.
Thank you!

After a brilliant start to the season, the Oakdale Mustang varsity boys soccer team took a step back this week. On the road for a pair of Valley Oak League games, the defending Sac-Joaquin Section champions walked away with a pair of head scratching 2-2 ties against Sierra and East Union.
In a highly anticipated league opener, the Oakdale Mustangs hosted the Sierra Timberwolves on Friday night, Sept. 25. After trailing 14-12 late in the first quarter, the Mustangs outscored Sierra 42-0 the rest of the way to claim a 54-14 home victory at The Corral.
League play has begun and the defending Sac Joaquin Section champion Mustangs have picked up where they left off in 2014. Oakdale finished the preseason with an impressive 7-2-2 record and opened the regular season against Manteca and with a home game against Lathrop. The Mustangs put away Manteca 6-1 and followed up with a victory over the Spartans 6-0.
The Oakdale Lady Mustangs water polo team hosted Lodi in a non-league game Tuesday, Sept. 15. Led by the junior tandem of Emily Bennett and Clare McKeon, the defending Sac Joaquin Section champions put away Lodi 13-8.
Valley Oak League runners invaded Modesto's Legion Park on Tuesday, Sept. 15 for the VOL #1 Meet. The meet featured all eight VOL cross country teams, from frosh to varsity. Although no individual results were kept, Oakdale brought a strong presence to the meet.
Three Lady Mustang programs were in action this past week. Ladies of the links, tennis courts and volleyball hardwood all displayed their talents in Valley Oak League action.
Even with the poor air quality from the wildfires in the foothills; the Mustangs varsity clubs continue to make strides this fall. This week the Mustangs boys soccer, girls tennis, girls golf, volleyball and water polo all were in action.
The Oakdale Mustang Cross Country teams were off and running at the Sierra Invitational on Saturday, Sept. 12 as the boys and girls teams competed against over 40 teams and even battled the poor air quality. Conditions were smoky and dry, according to Coach Guy Fowler.
Saturday night, Sept. 12 was "Mini Mustangs" night but the varsity football team's margin of victory was anything but mini. The Mustangs hosted Menlo-Atherton in front of a near capacity crowd under the lights. Oakdale's fierce defense and swift offense downed the Bears 61-7 in the team's final preseason game of 2015.
The defending Sac-Joaquin Section champion Oakdale Mustangs varsity soccer boys are on the right track after an impressive week. Although Oakdale dropped a game to visiting Franklin 2-0, they regrouped and earned a 5-2 home win over Livingston and finished the week by winning the Gregori Tournament over the weekend.
In the 79th battle between the Oakdale and Turlock football programs, the Mustangs galloped to a 24-13 home victory on Friday, Sept. 4.
The defending Sac-Joaquin Section champion boys soccer team wrapped up a busy week on the field. The boys played a pair of road scrimmage games against Enochs and Beyer High School, then took their act on the road in the two-day Pitman Tournament over the weekend.
Numerous Oakdale Mustang teams suited up for final tune-up games before entering league play. The girl's tennis team took on Enochs and Turlock in scrimmage matches that took place on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Lady Mustangs hosted Enochs before traveling to Turlock the following day. The girls team opened league play when they traveled Weston Ranch on Tuesday, Sept. 1 after The Leader's press time. Oakdale hosts its first home match on Thursday, Sept. 3 against East Union at 3:30 p.m.
Setting the stage, fans entering The Corral at Oakdale High School on Friday night – whether they were hometown supporters or came down the hill for the contest – all saw the sign.
School is back in session, fall is almost upon us and many of the OHS Mustangs teams are gearing up for the 2015 season. Oakdale's football, volleyball, cross country, tennis and soccer teams were all involved in scrimmages and tournament play this past week.

The goal of this project is to identify the microorganisms present in the endometrial samples obtained from women with or without evidence of endometritis using a combination of culture methods, rRNA sequencing and whole genomic sequencing. The overarching aim of these studies is to identify the etiology of endometritis. The investigators will define the role of fastidious anaerobic microorganisms in the etiology of PID, and assess whether antibiotic treatment regimens used for the treatment of PID have activity against the novel organisms linked with pelvic infections.

From being a solo mountain sitting in Killington's shadow to almost becoming an extension of Killington, Pico has gone through an odd decade. I was actually excited at the prospect of Killington originally extending itself onto Pico, making the drive between the resorts if you want to switch it up a non-factor. Unfortunately that plan was scraped and it doesn't appear to be anywhere on the horizon, especially with the recent economic climate. Like Okemo's Jackson Hole gondola, this may be one of those projects that simply stays off the table for the foreseeable future.
But Pico on its own is not a half-bad mountain. The crowds rarely reach the resort and the dual express quads leading to the peak seem to normally handle the traffic the mountain does receive. The intermediate terrain is vast and varied but with only one blue trail off the peak it can get skied off quickly. This is a design problem that may not have a solid solution. The endless funnel of intermediate skiers onto Easy Street and onto the lower summit blues is inevitable at this point, but its hard not to look at this situation and wonder why there couldn't be a better option.
Aside from the trails off the peak the expert runs are relatively short, with the only exception being B-slope. Bronco is a nice trail as well but it is frequently used by the mountain's ski team and for regional races. So this limits expert options. Beginners are faced with even slimmer options. Beyond the usual suspects off the Bonanza lift the main mountain really offers two relatively long beginner runs.
If you find yourself tired of the Killington crowds and don't want to drive far give Pico a shot. It's not a bad option for a day or two.

All Seka all the time. An absolute must for fans of the platinum beauty.
For Seka fans, this is a dream come true since the legendary bombshell is rarely off-screen in this one. So not only does one get the classic bad acting, simple set-ups and porno music of 1983, there's a solid hour-plus of Seka fucking and sucking in a great variation of scenes that include indoors, outdoors, two girls/one guy and a couple of couples in a swingin' finale.
The extras are slim - a photo gallery and some previews, but it's a start. Besides, My Sister Seka already has everything a Seka fan needs.

Great article from espn:
Clements, Fitzgerald in spotlight. Larry Fitzgerald averaged 99.6 yards receiving per game vs. the 49ers in his first six matchups against them. That average has fallen to 63.3 yards per game in four meetings over the last two seasons. The difference? Nate Clements. The veteran cornerback signed with the 49ers before the 2007 season and quickly distinguished himself as a difference-maker in this matchup. Fitzgerald has still managed to find the end zone, but his receiving yardage totals against the 49ers in the Clements era (20, 156, 31, 46) cannot compare to what they were from 2004 to 2006 (94, 47, 102, 129, 133, 93). Clements plays Fitzgerald physically and does not back down. Fitzgerald has worked hard to improve his game, with spectacular results. Can he solve Clements more consistently?
This is great especially now that boldin most likely wont play this sunday! i'm feeling the war machine baby!!!!!!

I've recently had some problems getting a path working properly. The solution turned out to be simple but I had an unexpected problem that stopped me getting to it. The following line, included in an erb template, works perfectly:
<%= button_to "Confirm delivery", delivery_confirm_path( @delivery ) %>
This one doesn't:
<%= button_to "Confirm delivery", delivery_confirm_path ( @delivery ) %>
It seems spacing before the opening parenthesis is not allowed in this case. The error I get is this:

Excellent plugin and i can't wait to see this come out of beta. I have a question about limiting the number of taxonomy items (images) to a specific number. Currently i'm using this to call a list of images onto a page:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[taxonomy_image_plugin taxonomy="brands" size="thumbnail" template="grid"]'); ?>
But as i add products to brands that list would grow and i only want to show up to 5 on that page (my product index page). Is there some way of doing that?

SPAIN DAYBOOK: Cajas Present Capital Plans to Bank of Spain
The Bank of Spain receives plans from savings banks, or cajas, to boost their capital in order to meet new solvency criteria.
ECONOMY: *Today is the deadline for cajas that were told on March 10 they don't meet new capital requirements to tell the Bank of Spain how and when they plan to raise the additional funds. The Bank of Spain has until April 14 to approve those plans or demand changes to them. *Spain must be alert and focus on completing economic changes and creating a more flexible labor system to be more competitive, Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero said after meeting with Spanish business leaders on March 26. *Spanish business executives who participated in a meeting with Zapatero said early elections would be detrimental to Spain's economic recovery, Efe reported, citing unidentified people with knowledge of the matter. *Norway's sovereign fund is interested in investing in small Spanish companies, including lenders or cajas, El Pais reported, citing an interview with the Norwegian central bank's deputy governor, who is also responsible for managing the fund. *European Central Bank Executive Board member Jose Manuel Gonzalez-Paramo said the ECB remains "strongly vigilant" for inflation risks. "When we say strong vigilance it means that when we assess what the risks to price stability are, they are very much on the upside," Gonzalez-Paramo told reporters after an event in Washington on March 25.
EQUITIES: *China Construction Bank Corp.'s board has adjusted a plan to set up a rural joint venture in China with Banco Santander SA, the bank said in a statement to the Hong Kong stock exchange yesterday. The venture will have an initial investment of 3.5 billion yuan and CCB will hold 80.1 percent. *Bankinter SA Chief Executive Officer Maria Dolores Dancausa said she sees remote chances of purchasing a savings bank, or caja, as it focuses on organic growth to achieve profit growth of 20 percent in 2011, El Pais reported. *Demetrio Carceller, chairman of Disa Corp. Petrolifera SA, boosted his stake in Sacyr Vallehermoso SA to 15.7 percent, becoming the biggest shareholder in the Spanish builder, Cinco Dias reported, citing a statement from Disa. *Solaria Energia y Medio Ambiente SA sold on the market 159,063 shares from March 16 to March 25. It sold the shares at 2.26 to 2.31 euros each, it said in a regulatory filing. *The boards of Telecomunicacoes de Sao Paulo SA and Vivo Participacoes SA agreed that all of Vivo shares will be owned by Telesp as part of a restructuring. Telesp will boost its share capital and Vivo's shareholders will get 1.55 new shares of Telesp for each of the Vivo shares they owned, Telefonica SA said in a regulatory filing.
MARKETS: *The IBEX 35 Index dropped 0.4 percent to 10,710.4. *The spread between Spanish and German 10-year borrowing costs narrowed to 189.3.

I've known Solomons. It ages well, in that I think it is at it's oddest on a baby, less odd on a kid, and perfectly wearable on a grown man all the way to old age.
Solomon Wolf is actually my middle name and my brother's middle name together so I don't hate it but it jarred me when I saw it.
I will say a surprising number of people seem to have issues with spelling Solomon and I get Saloman, Soloman, etc. like they can't believe it's ALL o's for vowels or something.
My favourite middles with it are all one syllable: Solomon Rhys, Solomon Piers, Solomon Hale, etc. So Solomon Wolf and Solomon Court both work for me, though I think I'd like Cael (said like kale) better than Court.

Hot answers tagged messaging
From now on, yes. Facebook provides Read Receipts for its users. How do I know if a friend has seen a message I sent? When someone sees your most recent message, it will be marked as seen. That way, you always know who got the message, and who didn't. Messages are marked as seen if the person is actively chatting or checking their ...
No, this is not possible. FB messages are not even email, and even with email nowadays return receipts are not really widespread outside of corporate mania.
The sender should be shown at the top of the message. If this is missing then it is probably a fake notification email which is intended to look like it came from Facebook; they probably want you to click on the link and maybe enter your Facebook login and password on their fake site. Obviously you should not do that.
If it is an extensive discussion and it cannot be taken off of Facebook (mail/skype etc) then use Groups as temporary message boards. The current flaw (last time I checked, this could have been removed by now) in groups allows you to add friends without having them accept. You can then start the message there and those who have been invited will receive a ...
No, there is not. Facebook applications can only delete content they own/posted. In addition Facebook doesn't deal in the negatives, so applications like these are swiftly banned/deleted. Even if you got a script to automatically click delete in a browser simulated window, your account would be disabled faster than the script would finish.
No, it isn't possible to know if someone if online and has just set their status as offline. It may arise a privacy concern. But there's a way to know if someone is online or not by checking their profile, check if they recently liked status, page or anything which can indicate that they are active.

When you send a message as a text, the receiver will receive that message in his/her Facebook inbox first and then Facebook will send a notification/message to that user if he/she is using SMS message alert services.

Chanel Rouge Fatal Le Vernis ($25.00 for 0.4 fl. oz.) is one of those OMGSEXY reds, and of course, limited edition. I'm actually very rarely tempted by red creams; they're never bad and certainly aren't disliked by me, but I never crave a creamy red. (I do, however, have a total love for shimmered/glittered reds, though.) Rouge Fatal (which I actually want to call Rouge Fatale!) is a deepened scarlet red with such richness. It's darkened slightly by brown, which makes this a nice red on both cooler and warmer skin tones.Read Full Review

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Let's pretend the economy isn't so bad, you want to start a new Sprint Cup team and you can have your choice of Jimmie Johnson, Carl Edwards or Kyle Busch, the drivers who won 24 of 36 races this past season.
You've done your homework and figured out who would be best from all aspects -- performance, marketing and representing your company in the best possible way.
And no, you can't have Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Who would it be?
Johnson, 33, is the obvious choice. He's won the past three championships for Hendrick Motorsports and his 40 wins over the past seven seasons is more than anybody on the circuit. He's unbelievably polished and a solid spokesman for his sponsors, although his critics say his personality is a bit vanilla.
Edwards, 29, is coming off a career season, leading the series in wins (nine), top-5s (19) and top-10s (27) en route to a second-place finish in the standings. He's got the Hollywood look that has him on the cover of magazines such as Men's Fitness and he can do a spectacular backflip from the door of his car. He also stirs up a bit of controversy from time to time for bonus attention. (See the Kevin Harvick shoving match at Lowe's Motor Speedway.)
Busch, 23, also is coming off a career season with eight wins in Cup and 21 between the top three series. He has that "bad boy" image that attracts many fans and a daring style on the track that has many comparing him to the late Dale Earnhardt. He's a bit unpolished as a spokesperson, but he's young enough that that could be forgiven.
So who would you pick?
Figuring current owners would be a bit biased toward their own drivers, it seemed more appropriate to check with a couple of past owners who are more than qualified.
So let's bring in Junior Johnson, who won 132 races and six titles as an owner, and Cale Yarborough, who never could find a driver as good as he was in 13 years as an owner.
"I'd want Kyle Busch," Junior Johnson says. "I like his hell-bent driving style. Jimmie's been here six or seven years. Kyle's real fresh. He's got to dig through extra stuff to get where sponsors come to him, but he's going to get there.
"When you find a young lad like him, so determined to win, you've got a long-term future with him."
Johnson should know. He caught lightning in a bottle with Yarborough and Darrell Waltrip, who, from 1976 to 1985, made him the envy of every owner.
"All three of them are great race car drivers," Junior Johnson says. "But if I had to go with one of them I'd take Kyle Busch because he's younger. He's going to do what he needs to do. You've just got to polish him a little.
"But for the next 10 or 12 years you've got a great race car driver."
Yarborough agrees.
"I'd have to pick Kyle Busch," he says. "He's so young and so good. He's going to bring sponsors. I know Jimmie has been winning championships and all, but Kyle Busch has a great future ahead of him."
This isn't a knock on Edwards or Jimmie Johnson. It's simply a hypothetical situation, no different than picking between Joe Montana, Brett Favre and Dan Marino if you are starting an NFL team.
And if all things were equal -- if Busch, Johnson and Edwards were
the same age -- that would influence the vote.
"You're pinning me to the wall now," Yarborough says. "If they were all the same age, I'd have to go with Jimmie Johnson. He's getting the job done now and would continue to get it done later, too."
Ditto, says Junior Johnson.
"No question then I'd take Jimmie Johnson," he says. "He's more settled in and determined as far as having a good race team. He's a helluva race car driver. He is not going out there slam-banging and running sideways and all that stuff to win a race, tearing up his car or blowing engines.
"He takes care of his car, and when the time comes to win he's as good or better than anybody on the track. But all things aren't equal, so I'll take Kyle."
Marketing angle
Hypothetically picking a driver is no different than picking a franchise quarterback, point guard or pitcher. The biggest difference between doing this in NASCAR versus almost any other sport is the marketing.
The San Francisco 49ers didn't care if Montana could sell toothpaste or cereal as long as he showed up on time for games and won. It's the same for most professional athletes.
But in NASCAR, particularly the premier series, you've got to have an image that fits your sponsor and helps sell products.
So somebody from marketing or promotions might not be as quick to pick Busch as an owner who is more interested in on-track performance.
Ken Cohn, the vice president of Millsport Motorsports, understands. His company represents clients looking for athletes who fit their image. He's neutral, with no allegiance to a certain driver or team.
Earlier this year, before Jimmie Johnson became the first driver since Yarborough (1976 to 1978) to win three straight titles, the company launched what it calls a Motorsports DBI (Davie Brown Index).
The data collected from fans scores drivers in seven categories -- appeal, notice, trendsetting, influence, trust, endorsements and aspiration. In terms of average attribute ranking, Earnhardt Jr. ranked first in every category.
But again, NASCAR's most popular driver isn't a part of this hypothetical situation.
Johnson is, and he ranked second. Neither Edwards nor Busch ranked in the top 10 overall, although Edwards did make the top 10 in appeal, trendsetting and influence.
Cohn acknowledges Edwards and Busch are likely to make a big move forward when the next survey is complete to include this past season. He also believes Johnson's numbers will improve, so from a marketing standpoint that's the driver he'd most recommend.
"Obviously there are a lot of unknowns," Cohn says. "But in general, Jimmie is an incredible solid choice when you consider his No. 2 average score."
Mark Dyer, the president and CEO of Motorsports Authentics, also leans toward Johnson. He noted Johnson has inched closer in merchandise sales to the top three -- Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart -- while Edwards and Busch are still working toward the top five.
"Jimmie's championship sales are up over 40 percent over last year," Dyer says. "Fans are responding."
Dyer had only one stipulation when selecting between the three.
"Do you get to take Chad Knaus with you?" he says of the only crew chief with three straight titles. "It's a tough question all the way around, but Jimmie is at the peak of his career. This team shows no signs of being satisfied."
Not everybody in the business of selling the sport agrees. Eddie Gossage, the president of Texas Motor Speedway, would take Johnson hands down if he were an owner. As a promoter he'd go with Busch or Edwards.
"It's a toss-up between Kyle and Carl," he says. "Kyle is wonderful because he makes waves and he doesn't care. Carl has this personality that is just so professional outside of the car. He's polished. He also has just a little bit of a danger element to him that I like."
Again, that's not a knock on Johnson.
"Jimmie is a great guy," Gossage continues. "He's the kind of guy you want to hang out with. But he comes across to the public as a much safer and reserved type of character. As a promoter you like a bit of danger hanging in the background all the time."
Yarborough laughed. Given the choice to throw Earnhardt Sr., David Pearson, Waltrip and himself into the mix with Johnson, Busch and Edwards, he says, "Who do you think I'd say it would be?"
Duh. You?
"Absolutely," he says. "I'd blow the doors off those guys."
Junior Johnson wasn't given the option of taking himself. He simply had Earnhardt Sr., Pearson and Waltrip thrown into the equation.
"Dale Earnhardt for sure," he says. "He was probably the all-time greatest driver. There's a lot of people that say there's been better, and he was just the best at his place and time, but I'd have to have Dale. He was just unforgiving when it came time to win."
Johnson, Edwards and Busch aren't so bad with wins on the line, either. On average, Johnson wins every 6.3 races, compared to 9.8 for Edwards and 12.5 for Busch.
They'll be the odds-on picks to challenge for wins and the title again next year as well. Fortunately for team owners Rick Hendrick (Johnson), Jack Roush (Edwards) and Joe Gibbs (Busch), their drivers aren't available under any real or hypothetical situation.
But if they were?
"I always knew me and Junior [Johnson] thought a lot alike," Yarborough says, reiterating Busch would be his guy. "That's why we were so successful together."

LONDON A hundred youngsters playing 50 pianos all at once may not sound like everyone's idea of a musical treat, but it's a sellout at London's Royal Festival Hall this coming Sunday.
Call it the "Lang Lang Effect".
The 28-year-old Chinese piano phenomenon, who has brought popstar glamour to the classical concert circuit, landed in Britain this week on what he says is a mission to bring music -- both playing and listening -- to a wider, younger generation.
"Lang Lang Inspires", a six-day series of recitals and public events at the Southbank Centre, has also given audiences an opportunity to judge the musical merits of a pianist who has divided critics with his showmanship and prodigious technique.
Hailed by some as among the world's finest, whose success has inspired millions of Chinese youngsters to take up classical piano -- dubbed the "Lang Lang Effect" -- others hear a lack of artistic sensibility beneath the dramatic keyboard skills.
"The new generation's Liberace," sniffed one London critic.
A hard-graft childhood in industrial Shenyang, inspired aged 2 by a piano playing cat in a "Tom & Jerry" cartoon and driven by a fiercely ambitious father, led to international acclaim and work with some of the world's leading orchestras and conductors.
Five minutes of standing ovations and a double encore for a rapturous full house after Tuesday's opening solo recital left little doubt of the adulation the spiky-haired maestro inspires among a fan base that extends far beyond the high-brow crowd.
The clamour for autographs and the flashing of mobile phone cameras, the cries of "Wow!" and "Amazing!, were all in an evening's work for the young man the New York Times called "the hottest artist on the classical music planet" -- and that was before he played the opening of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Some critics were less kind, conceding his dexterity and ability but questioning the artistic interpretation he brought to a programme of Bach, Schubert and Chopin.
After the first two pieces, "It was circus time," wrote Michael Church in the Independent. "Of course he played Chopin's Etudes brilliantly -- he's an indisputably brilliant pianist -- but he consistently went for effects at the expense of poetry."
Ismene Brown, writing on the theartsdesk.com, saw a talent for publicity as perhaps the greatest skill of "this showman with his precious, kittenish phrasing and facial expressions" whom she called "the new generation's Liberace".
Yet even Brown also heard a moment of beauty: "Suddenly, in the 12th Etude ... for two minutes I was totally upended.
"Here, suddenly, was a little boy who'd practised hour upon hour against the metronome, sweeping those huge arpeggios up and down the piano without cease. The furious technical challenge in which he found liberation for his soul pierced my heart.
"Deep, very deep, down inside Lang Lang there could be a sincere and humble musician -- but is it a priority for him, amid all this adulation?"
The pianist himself describes his priority as inspiring a wider audience: "It's an honour to have the ability to inspire kids. At the same time, it's a responsibility," he said in the programme notes for the week, which will end with 100 children aged from 5 to 24 joining him on stage at 50 pianos on Sunday.
In that mission of popularising his music, he seems to be succeeding. One man who heard him for the first time on Tuesday rushed to share his emotions on Lang Lang's Twitter feed:
"My first experience of a classical concert seeing you tonight," Jack Squires wrote. "I feel inspired by your talent."

Turkey Says UN Plans Inquiry Into Gaza Aid Convoy Deaths
Turkey said the United Nations plans to set up a five-person commission to investigate the deaths of nine Turks when Israel seized ships bringing aid to Gaza.
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan discussed the commission today in a telephone conversation with UN Secretary- General Ban Ki-Moon, Turkey's Anatolia state news agency reported. The commission will have members from Turkey and Israel as well as others appointed by the UN and will be headed by former New Zealand Prime Minister Geoffrey Palmer according to Anatolia, which didn't say how it got the information.
"The Secretary General has been in consultation on the way forward on that, and as soon as we have something to announce I'm sure we'll get it out widely," New York-based UN spokeswoman Marie Okabe said in a phone interview today.
Turkey has demanded an independent inquiry into the deaths on May 31 and said Israel must lift its blockade of Gaza or risk permanent damage to relations with Turkey. Israel says it attempted to prevent clashes with the aid flotilla by issuing numerous warnings beforehand to change course toward the port of Ashdod and unload there.
Israel says the blockade is meant to prevent the smuggling of rockets and weapons into Hamas-ruled Gaza and insists the Palestinian coastal enclave is receiving sufficient aid.

It is owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company through its Parks and Resorts division and is home to four theme parks, two water parks, twenty-four themed resorts excluding eight more that are on-site but not owned by The Walt Disney Company, two spas and fitness centers, five golf courses, and other recreational and entertainment venues.The resort was developed by Walt Disney in the 1960 s to supplement Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California. In addition to hotels and a theme park similar to Disneyland, Walt's original plans also included an Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, a planned city that would serve as a test bed for new innovations for city living. After extensive lobbying, the Government of Florida created the Reedy Creek Improvement District, a special government district that essentially gave the Walt Disney Company the standard powers and autonomy of an incorporated city. Walt died in 1966 before his original plans were fully realized.The resort opened on October 1, with the Magic Kingdom as its only theme park, and has since added Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom.Walt Disney Productions began looking for land for a second park to supplement Disneyland, which opened in Anaheim, California, in 1955. Market surveys revealed that only 5% of Disneyland's visitors came from east of the Mississippi River, where 75% of the population of the United States lived. Additionally, Walt Disney disliked the businesses that had sprung up around Disneyland and wanted control of a much larger area of land for the new project.Walt Disney flew over the Orlando site one of many in November . Seeing the well-developed network of roads, including the planned Interstate 4 and Florida's Turnpike, with McCoy Air Force Base later Orlando International Airport to the east, Disney selected a centrally-located site near Bay Lake.More

The BeagleBoard: $149 Linux System
If you're looking for a new project, check out the beagleboard.
The beagleboard is low cost fanless development board with Linux support. And it is low cost, you can get one for $149 from digikey. And it is low power, it uses less than 2 Watts and can run via USB power (although it does have a secondary power input).
So what do you get for $149? A bunch:
- 600 MHz superscalar ARM Cortex A8 processor
- HD Video (720p) capable C64x DSP core
- 128MB Ram
- 256MB Flash
- I2C, I2S, SPI, MMC/SD (via expansion connector)
- S-Video
- Stereo Out
- Stereo In
- RS-232 Serial
What kind of performance do you get? A lot:
- 1200 Dhrystone MIPS
- 10 Million Polygons/sec
- OpenGL 1.1 and 2.0 support
What can you do with it? How about this:
That's the beagle board running Linux and an X server! The hook-up is:
The beagleboard was designed by some TI employees (it uses TI's OMAP3530 processor). However, the beagleboard is not built or sold by TI. It's built by a contract manufacturer and available exclusively from digikey.
The beagleboard is pretty open, the fact that it runs Linux tells you a lot. In addition, according to Jason Kridner, one of the TI developers, the schematics and layout are also available although I haven't yet located them on the website. TI provides a free compiler for non-commercial use for the DSP. If you're gonna do any serious development you'll need a hardware debugging "dongle" to connect to the JTAG port, check out the flyswatter, its a mere $49 and it uses the OpenOCD software. Check out the digikey beagleboard page for links to other needed goodies.
One of the first things you notice as you examine the beagleboard is that there's no ethernet and no wireless. I asked Jason about this and his response was that during early development the list of desired hardware additions grew to the point where the only reasonable solution was to deny them all, if it could be reasonably not be added to the board it wouldn't be. Essentially, this meant that if there was a reasonable USB solution then it wouldn't go onboard. The second thing you may notice is that you can't find the processor, the RAM or the Flash chip. The reason for that is that they are all squeezed on top of each other using a packaging technology called POP (Package On Package). So the chip in the center of the board that you would think ought to be the processor, is the processor, along with the RAM and Flash.
There's a growing community of developers out there. Check out beagleboard.org for more information.

it's a start...
well, it's a start. but, you have to have ethernet.
I would buy one
I think it has allot of potential. Would look into one of those. Linux needs very little to run. So it has my thumbs up
No ethernet on board, but what about USB? Can a USB hub be connected to this and a few USB ethernet adapters added?
The fact that the article mentions what was kept off the board, but doesn't mention 'but hey... you can just hook up a USB ethernet device and away you go..' really makes me wonder if there is any solution for ethernet at all.
the sentence "Essentially,
the sentence "Essentially, this meant that if there was a reasonable USB solution then it wouldn't go onboard." explains this, doesn't it?
I read that line to mean if you can find a USB linux driver for it, you can connect it to this board. This should include ethernet, external storage, etc.
re BeagleBoard
No ethernet == No sale
Maybe this would be help to you?
I might buy this and get a load of adapters, sounds like a good cheap option for a computer.
Add Ethernet
I will buy more only if there is ethernet port, if not Giga, at least 100MB
100MB is gigabit ethernet.
100MB is gigabit ethernet.
umm...WHAT?! You BEST be trolling...
He is (more or less) right and joking, not trolling
Many people mess up bit (b) and byte (B).
It takes 8 bits to make 1 byte.
So 100MB = 800Mb, so nearly 1Gb. Clear? if not read:
Ethernet 100M = 100 Megabit per second = 100Mbps / often written 100M or 100Mb
Ethernet 1G = 1Gigabit per second = 1Gbps / often 1Gb or 1G or 1000Mb or 1000M
Ethernet 100MB or 1GB is just an evidence the author does not have a clue what he is writing about (very common with hardware dealers).

It is too bad that EHCI is broken in this first rev :(
Where to find the design files
The link to the design files is off the "Top Resources" page at http://beagleboard.org/hardware/design. Be aware that 0.4mm ball-pitch ball-grid array devices aren't for garage shops. There is a 0.65mm ball-pitch device option as well, which has some special features that allow use of design rules for 0.8mm ball-pitch design with minimal routing layers. While not quite for assembly with your toaster oven, it is quite a bit easier for the average board shop to handle.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Chris Nolan reveals time was the biggest factor in not releasing 'Inception' in 3-D
The debate over whether a slew of upcoming event films should be released in 3-D has only increased since the box office success of "Clash of the Titans" this Spring. Sure, the Sam Worthington period adventure was slammed by critics and even moviegoers for the weak 3-D effects because of a last minute conversion process, but the picture still grossed an impressive $490 million worldwide. It was no surprise then that while "Clash's" studio Warner Bros. announced that a laundry list of releases would undergo the conversion to 3-D that Christopher Nolan's highly anticipated "Inception" was also being considered.
At the time, fans of Nolan's previous work, such as the blockbuster "The Dark Knight," cried foul hoping the filmmaker wouldn't bow to studio pressure (if there really was any) and find themselves with a muddy "Clash" result. Ultimately, it was revealed Nolan made the decision not to release his complex mind-bending thriller in the format, but it was never clear exactly why. Until now that is. Speaking at a press conference on Friday for "Inception," HitFix asked Nolan about his choice and got a rather blunt answer. The critically acclaimed director said that before the shoot began they looked at numerous formats including showscan, 65 millimeter (which they eventually fixed on) and, yes, 3-D technology. But, it turns out the post-production process was the ultimate factor in the decision.
"When we edited the film, we looked at the post-conversion process and did some very good tests, but when I really looked at the time period we had and where my attention needed to be in finishing the film, I decided I didn't have enough time to do it to the standard I would have liked," Nolan reveals.
Further, Nolan wanted to make it clear, however, that he didn't want to disparage audiences new found love for the immersive format. Right now, it's just not ready for his work.
"It's perfectly possible to post-convert a film very well. I like not having glasses on when I see a movie and I like seeing a bright immersive image," Nolan says. "So, I think at the end of the day I am extremely happy to be putting the film out with 35 mil film prints. Very brightly projected with the highest possible image quality. That's really what excited me."
Whether moviegoers will ever get to see those "Inception" 3-D tests on Blu-ray or in special releases remains to be seen. However, they will be able to enjoy "Inception" on the larger IMAX screens when it opens nationwide on July 16.
