GREENVILLE, N.C. - East Carolina's 2013 regular season finale at Marshall, originally scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 30, has been moved up one day to accommodate a live broadcast by an unspecified Conference USA television partner according to an announcement from the league Monday.
A kickoff time of 12 noon has been established for the contest, now set for Friday, Nov. 29 at Joan C. Edwards Stadium in Huntington, W.Va.
The meeting will mark the third-straight year both programs will close regular season play on opposite sidelines as the Pirates and Herd dashed each other's bowl hopes in 2011 and 2012, capturing thrilling overtime decisions on their home field on the final weekend of action.
In addition to last year's 65-59 double-overtime win against Marshall, ECU also played recent Friday season finales in 2008 (UTEP) and 2010 (SMU).

Created in the 1980s and early 1990s by Sam Raimi, The Evil Dead remains a solid horror film series with a diehard fan following. For those that don't know, the films revolve around the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis, a fictional text that wreaks havoc on all that read from its pages. The films have always starred Bruce Campbell as Ashley J. Ash Williams, who would spit witty one-liners while fighting back supernatural forces of evil.
Many fans will claim the series leans more toward comedic horror, though others will quickly argue that films began as horror (The Evil Dead) and evolved into comedy (Evil Dead II, Army of Darkness). Regardless of where the films fall, one cannot argue the cult popularity that the series has reached, spawning video games, Halloween costumes, comic books, toys, and a musical that opened in Toronto in 2003.
But that's not all: the film has now reached the critical mass so many fans detest, the remake/re-imagining phase. On the surface, such an act appears delightful, as it exposes a new generation to what they otherwise may have considered dated or old. On the other hand, many of the minutiae that made the original series so great could be lost during the remake's translation, thus altering the original film's intent or artistic meaning.
Then again, the remake of The Evil Dead, which is expected to hit theaters on April 12 of 2013, lists Sam Raimi as one of the four contributing writers, which are three more than the original's one writer, Sam Raimi, who also directed the original. The remake lists Fede Alvarez as the director, putting even more distance between Raimi and his original creation.
Is this good? Is this bad? It's hard to say, really. High resolution photos, such as the one located below, are starting to hit the Internet, already showcasing the differences between the original and the remake:
Some defendants of the remake point toward Raimi's involvement as a sign that the film holds good intentions. But a remake is a remake, and the stated purpose may be to use updated filming techniques to achieve a better version of the original film, but the underlying purpose will always be money. Why else would someone reuse a franchise as popular as The Evil Dead, and not create their own scenario? Was Raimi really not able to capture greatness with the original series? Looking at the current success the franchise as seen, that would be hard to argue.
Anyway, the remake stars Shiloh Fernandez, Lou Taylor Pucci, Elizabeth Blackmore, Jessica Lucas, and Bruce Campbell (who is also producing the film). Here's the film's synopsis: Five Twenty-something friends become holed up in a remote cabin. When they discover a Book of the Dead, they unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to fight for survival.
Expect the film on April 12 of 2013.

Ashley Toye: Monster or Mistake?
Six years ago, Ashley Toye, then 17, was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for her part in the torture and murder of two teens, Alexis and Jeffrey Sosa. Now, a new law may give her the opportunity for a reviewed — and possibly reduced — sentence. Does she deserve a second chance? Ashley, now 24, speaks out from prison in a daytime exclusive.

Brutal MurdersOn October 7, 2006, 18-year-old Alexis "Alex" Sosa and his 14-year-old nephew, Jeffrey Sosa, were beaten and tortured for more than two-and-a-half hours before being shot to death; their bodies later set ablaze in a burning car. Investigators charged 10 people — mostly teenagers — in the murders, including Ashley Toye, the then 17-year-old pregnant girlfriend of the accused ringleader, Kemar Johnston. Seven of the ten suspects took plea deals, but Ashley refused and was the first of three to go to trial. "I didn't take the plea offer because I felt like 25 to 35 years was a very long time," Ashley says. "My attorney felt like I would get off. He knew I didn't commit murder." She adds that her attorney also hoped the jury would be sympathetic because she was pregnant at the time. "I thought I was guilty of aggravated battery," she continues. "I didn't feel like I was guilty of anything else, because I didn't do anything else."
Ashley was convicted and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Then, in June 2012, the United States Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional to sentence juveniles to life in prison without parole for murder without first having a sentencing hearing that takes into consideration their age and development. This ruling may give Ashley the opportunity for a reviewed — and possibly reduced — sentence. Ashley says she feels she deserves this chance at freedom. "The murder would have happened with me there or not," she claims. "I made a huge mistake. I never thought a jury would convict me because I knew deep down in my heart that I was innocent of the murders."
Ashley recounts the chilling details of what she says happened on the night of the double murder. Why does she say she had no choice but to participate?
Ashley's twin sister Bethany, who was at the party before the crimes began, explains how she believes her sister got caught up in such a horrible act.
A Troubled ChildhoodAshley's father, Cliff, says he raised his three children as a single parent, without support from his ex-wife, Julie.
"Cliff and I went through a very tough divorce," Julie explains. She says that between 6 and 12 years old, the children were shuffled back and forth between her and Cliff. She adds that at around 12 or 13 years old, Ashley and Bethany started getting into trouble and were caught stealing makeup, skipping school and smoking marijuana. "At that time, Clifford dropped the girls off with me and said, 'Take them.' He couldn't handle them anymore," she says. After living with their mom for two years, Julie admits that she needed to get help for a drug problem and left the girls a note while they were at school, explaining that she could no longer take care of them and that they were to go back with their father. "And I left," Julie admits. "I thought they were going to be taken care of."
"I don't know if [Ashley's] mother abandoning her had any effect on my daughter," Cliff says. He says knowing that he may never see his daughter outside of prison again is "more than someone can handle."
Ashley explains why she blames her mother for where she is today. And, does Julie have any regrets? Plus, Cliff and Ashley's brother, Justin, discuss Ashley's relationship with Kemar.
Ashley's attorney, Stuart Pepper, details why he thinks his client deserves a lesser sentence. And, Dr. Phil weighs in.
The Victims' FamilyJeffrey Sosa's sister, Linda, explains that she was invited to the party but made a last-minute decision to go elsewhere. "That night, at around 12:30 or 1:00 a.m., my brother had called my phone, and I ignored his phone call," she says, while choking back tears. "Now I know what he was calling for. For a long time, I lived with that feeling that I could have done something to help them."
"They just didn't kill them; they tortured them," says Alfredo, Jeffrey's father and Alex's brother.
"What really shocked me is that there were women involved in [the murders] as well," Linda says. "How could a girl do this to a kid as he's begging for his life, with tears in his eyes and just keep doing it and sitting there, laughing in their faces?" She says she believes Ashley could have stopped the night's events at any time.
"[Ashley] is trying to play this victim role, when in reality, we are the victims," Alfredo says. "She's pretty much a cold-hearted murderer. She should be right where she is."
"The just thing to do here is to keep [Ashley] in prison, where she's of no harm to anyone else, even her own child," Linda adds. "She should just rot in prison."
Samantha Syoen, Director of Communications for the Florida State Attorney's office, discusses the injuries inflicted on the victims and Ashley's involvement in the crime. She says that the carving on one of the victim's backs was slow, deep and purposeful, and that there were eight to nine lines cut into his skin, including one that stretched from his shoulder blade to his spinal column. "This carving takes up a half of the victim's back," she explains. "It's about the size of my hand." She says Ashley was present for everything that happened. "She was there for the taser. She was there for the carving. She was there for pouring bleach in their mouths, their eyes, their wounds. Salt was poured into the wounds," she says. "This was two-and-a-half hours of absolute torture of two little boys."
Alfredo and Linda explain why they believe Ashley got what she deserved. Plus, hear a portion of Ashley's interrogation tape that the Sosa family says proves she is guilty.
Hear Ashley's message for the Sosa family. Plus, Dr. Phil offers counter arguments that could be made as to why Ashley's sentence should not be reduced.
Sunny Hostin, a former federal prosecutor and current legal analyst for CNN and ABC, joins the show via Polycom and weighs in on the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling affecting teens sentenced to life in prison without parole. "The Supreme Court really left it to the states to make their own decisions as to whether or not [the ruling] applies retroactively," she explains. She says she feels Ashley should be entitled to a hearing, although she doesn't think it will change anything. "In Ashley's case, I believe she's going to spend the rest of her life in prison without the possibility of parole."
"I think that Ashley should have a hearing, and I think teens should get this hearing," Dr. Phil says. He adds that having a hearing doesn't mean that the teens shouldn't be held accountable for their actions.

|"Well, I think we should put it back in order for them, don't you?"
This article or section needs to be cleaned up to conform to a higher standard of quality.
The Underground Chambers[1] were a series of rooms underneath Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry that served as the defences surrounding the Philosopher's Stone in the 1991-1992 school year. There were seven chambers in total that contained an obstacle or task that guarded the stone from being stolen.
In 1991, the Philosopher's Stone became the target of Lord Voldemort due to its potent ability to return him to full power. Suspecting danger, Albus Dumbledore set out Rubeus Hagrid to retrieve the stone from Vault 713 at Gringotts Wizarding Bank the same day he took Harry Potter to Diagon Alley. That same day, Quirinus Quirrell who was being used as a parasite of Lord Voldemort broke into the bank, but failed to obtain the stone.
The seven obstacles in the Underground Chambers was then created in Hogwarts School with the intent of protecting the stone.
First obstacle
- Ron: "What do they think they're doing, keeping a thing like that locked up in a school?"
- Hermione: "You don't use your eyes, do you? Didn't you see what it was standing on?"
- Ron: "I wasn't looking at its feet! I was a bit preoccupied with its heads... or maybe you didn't notice? There were three!"
- — Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley discussing Fluffy's chamber[src]
The only known access way was from a trapdoor in the Third Floor Corridor, which was guarded by the three-headed dog, Fluffy. This obstacle was set by Rubeus Hagrid. To get past this, one had to "play a bit of music" and put Fluffy to sleep. Fluffy guarded a trap door that leads to the next obstacle. Professor Quirrell most probably enchanted a harp to put Fluffy to sleep while Harry played a wooden flute.
Second obstacle
- Hermione: "Devil's Snare, Devil's Snare... What did Professor Sprout say? It likes the dark and the damp-"
- Harry: "So light a fire!"
- Hermione: "Yes - of course - but there's no wood!"
- Ron: "HAVE YOU GONE MAD? ARE YOU A WITCH OR NOT?"
- — Getting through the Devil's Snare's chamber[src]
After going through the trapdoor, a long drop led to a chamber filled with Devil's Snare, planted by the Herbology teacher, Professor Sprout. The Devil's Snare was designed to entangle and suffocate any intruders, especially quickly the more the intruder attempts to escape. As the Snare is sensitive to heat and light, Hermione used a charm that created a jet of Bluebell flames to free Ron.
Third obstacle
- Hermione: "These birds... they can't be here just for decoration."
- Harry: "They're not birds! They're keys! Winged keys."
- — Harry and Hermione upon entering the chamber of winged keys.[src]
A downward sloping passage led to another chamber filled with flying keys, charmed by Professor Flitwick. A large wooden door led to another chamber. The door would not open with the use of any charm such as Alohomora, one needed the correct key to get through. To pass, one had to use the broomstick provided to catch the correct key. However, once airborne, the other keys will try and attack the pursuer.
Fourth obstacle
- Ron: "You see it, don't you, Harry? Once I make my move, the Queen will take me. Then you're free to check the King."
- Harry: "No. Ron, NO!"
- Hermione: "What is it?"
- Harry: "He's going to sacrifice himself."
- — Harry, Ron and Hermione in the chess chamber[src]
The next chamber was dark and resembled a graveyard, it contained a Human Chess Game, enchanted by Professor McGonagall. To defeat the game, one had to play themselves across the board and checkmate the King according to the rules of Chess. One cannot simply walk across the board and pass, so an adequate knowledge of Wizard's Chess was needed to complete this task.
Fifth obstacle
- Hermione: "Go on"
- Harry: "I'm glad we didn't have to fight that one, come on, I can't breathe."
- — Harry Potter regarding the knocked out Troll[src]
The following chamber contained a Mountain Troll that needed to be defeated in order to pass. This chamber had a terrible smell to it and it was of great relief to Harry and Hermione that they didn't have to be in there too long. This was provided by Professor Quirrell. When Harry and Hermione got there, the troll was already knocked out thanks to Professor Quirrell.
Sixth obstacle
- Hermione: "This isn't magic - it's logic - a puzzle. A lot of the greatest wizards haven't got an ounce of logic, they'd be stuck in here forever."
- Harry: "But so will we, won't we?"
- Hermione: "Of course not, everything we need is here on this paper. Seven bottles: three are poison; two are wine; one will get us safely through the black fire and one will get us back through the purple"
- — Hermione and Harry discussing the Logic Chamber[src]
The next obstacle guarding the Stone was a logical riddle set by Professor Snape. Upon entering the chamber, the doorway through which one entered was blocked by a purple flame. The other entry way leading to the Philosopher's Stone, was blocked with black flame. A table with seven bottles of differing shapes sat in the middle of the room.
Each bottle contained a liquid, but the bottles were not labelled with their contents. Three were poison, two contained nettle wine, one contained a potion to safely traverse the black flame, and the last contained a potion that allowed passage back through the purple flames. The riddle, when properly worked out, revealed the contents of each bottle, and therefore which one was safe to drink to allow onward progress:
Based on Hermione's deductions, from left to right, the potions lineup is:
- Poison
- Nettle wine
- Potion to move the drinker forward through black flames
- Poison
- Poison
- Nettle wine
- Potion to move the drinker backwards through purple flames
As Professor Quirrell presumably travelled through the chamber to reach the Mirror of Erised, he must have had to take the Black Fire Potion himself, and, as there was only enough potion for one person in the bottle, that would have used it all up. However, he may have taken some of the potion with him when he entered the chambers, and drunk that instead. Another possibility is that the bottles had had a Refilling Charm on them.
Seventh obstacle
- Harry: "You!"
- Quirrell: "Me, I wondered whether I'd be meeting you here, Potter."
- — Harry Potter discovering Professor Quirell in the seventh chamber[src]
The final obstacle was the Mirror of Erised, designed and set by Albus Dumbledore. The only way to obtain the stone was to look into the mirror, see yourself having it, but not using it.
Most people would see themselves using it, such as turning things to gold, crafting Elixir of Life, or giving it to someone. This is what Quirrell saw. Harry however, was able to get the Stone because he only wanted to save it and not use it.
Behind the scenes
- The prevalence of the number seven is not coincidental; seven obstacles were in place to get to the Philosopher's Stone and seven different potions were available in Snape's logic riddle. Seven, as deduced by Arithmancer Bridget Wenlock, has magical properties to it. It is believed that the number seven is the most magical number. It is also, of course, the total number of books in the series, with Rowling firmly sticking to that number.
- In the film adaption of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone an Undetectable Extension Charm were possibly put at the Winged Key Chamber, as it was taller than the Devil's Snare Chamber and Fluffy Chamber together, and it could not be seen from the outside of the Hogwarts Castle.
- The fifth and sixth obstacles were cut from the film. This is curious, as Snape was the one who was suspected to want to steal the stone, and Quirrell was the one who actually wanted to. This is also a bit strange because in the film Hagrid still says that Snape is one of the teachers protecting the stone. However, in the film, when the Trio unlocks the door, a bit of the Troll Chamber can be seen, and the Potion Riddle appears on Disc 2. It is possible that the film makers just cut from the Winged Keys Chamber to the Mirror of Erised Chamber.
- At one point in the "Battle of Hogwarts" chapter in Deathly Hallows, Hermione asked Ron are you a wizard or not?. This might have been a reference to what was said in the Devil's Snare Chamber by Ron to Hermione, are you a witch or not?.
- In the original script of Deathly Hallows Fluffy, the first obstacle, was going to participate in the Battle of Hogwarts.
- In some video games an antechamber to the Mirror of Erised chamber appears, which makes out eight obstacles. However, it is possible that the antechamber is a part of the last chamber.
- In the PS1 version of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone the Potion Riddle chamber is called You-Know-Who. It is unknown why.
- There were a lot of differences in the Chambers between the books, films and video games, shown in the following table:

We are proud to put the Blick Premier name on this fine grade Belgian linen canvas, boasting all the best qualities for an exceptional painting experience. It is quite simply the ultimate substrate for oil painting.
We start with an extremely smooth, 6.5 oz medium texture linen made in Belgium from the inner bark of the flax plant. Picked, pumiced, and woven by hand, these long fibers produce a strong, flexible, slightly stretchy material that has been known to last for centuries. Belgian linen is acknowledged to be the very finest in the world, following a tradition that dates back to the 1400s — and we would not settle for anything less when it comes to the Blick Premier brand.
This outstanding canvas is then imported to the USA where it is carefully primed by hand with three coats of oil based primer to a 10 oz finished weight. Meticulous sanding between the coats prevents peeling, flaking, or cracking.
The combination of
Blick Premier Belgian Linen Canvas is ideally suited to accept oil paint — however, it can also be used with egg tempera, casein, and some drawing media.

Chicago Cubs on Monday.
Pedro Alvarez had a huge performance in defeat for the Pirates, going 4-for-5

- Title
- A comparative analysis of the strategy and structure of United States and Australian corporations
- Author(s)
- Capon, Noel; Christodoulou, Chris; Farley, John U.; Hulbert, James M.
- Abstract
- An analysis of the environments of leading manufacturing firms operating in the United States and in Australia produced a series of hypothesized differences in the strategies, organization structures, and market environments of firms in the two countries. Parallel hypotheses about differences between domestic Australian firms and subsidiaries of foreign multinationals operating in Australia were also developed. The hypotheses were by and large supported when tested on data obtained from leading corporations in the two countries. The United States sample, drawn from the Fortune "500," contained no foreign subsidiaries, whereas about half of the Australian sample, drawn from the 100 largest Australian manufacturers, were subsidiaries of foreign-based multinational firms. Overall, the U.S. firms face faster-growing and more competitive markets, are more international and invest more in R&D, particularly for new products. Domestic Australian firms are active acquirers and resemble United States firms in terms of product diversity, divestiture activity and organization, but they are not international in focus and their limited investment in R&D is process-oriented. Australian subsidiaries of foreign multinationals are even less international than domestic firms narrower in product scope and have simpler organizations.

Tis the season for holiday office parties, open houses and potlucks. And that means food, people. Food, food, and more food! While cookies are usually the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about Holiday treats, there's more to party eats than that. After all, man (or woman) cannot live by cookies alone. We need more substantial noshes to soak up all that free-flowing mulled wine, hot buttered rum and bubbly. We need Cheesy Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms.
Stuffed mushrooms have been a staple in cocktail party cuisine at least since the early part of the 20th century. For one thing, they are the perfect little self-contained, bite-sized party food package. This is a highly desirable trait in a canapé. The fact that you can just pluck one off of a passing tray practically guarantees that you won't starve as you navigate the room while juggling your cocktail, handbag and smartphone. For another thing, mushrooms are culinary chameleons. They don't really taste like much on their own. But, they have the ability to soak up the flavors of whatever ingredients they're paired with and become one with them. They're also very versatile and cozy up quite well with virtually anything they're stuffed with. Well, maybe not Swiss buttercream. That probably wouldn't be good. But hey, you never know…
These Cheesy Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms were inspired by a recipe from Ina Garten. With a few exceptions, she makes them very much the same way that my grandmother did. They're made with Italian sausage, onions, garlic, Marsala wine and three different kinds of cheese. That's where the "cheesy" part comes in.
So, let's make some stuffed mushrooms… read more >>

On Friday, March 15 and Saturday, March 16 there will be a benefit held at Lincoln International High School in South Minneapolis to increase awareness of and support for a Somali Artifact and Culture Museum. The concept for the museum comes from the mind of Osman Ali, a local businessman and Somalia native who has been living in the Twin Cities with his family for more than 17 years. The museum will be the first to showcase Somali culture and artifacts outside of Mogadishu (which is no longer in operation), and the only one of its kind in the United States and the world. Ali's arrival and subsequent settling in the United States might be considered a twist of fate, as he initially did not intend to come to America, much less make his home here. He actually was living in Dubai for years, where he said he had a good life, before coming to Minnesota. Continue Reading →

Last week I watched the Sochi Games while on the elliptical. Yes. The irony of chugging along on the "cross-country" setting while watching pros actually ski cross-country does not fail me. And I realized: mayyyyybe I should kick things up a notch. Step one? Find out what the gold medalists do to get fit.
Image via Men's Health
According to Men's Health, Ted Ligety – giant slalom gold-medal winner for Team USA – trains a total of 30 hours a week, following this routine. Included? Dead lifts, wall sits, and barbell squats. (Ligety does an easy fifty-three 235-pound barbell squats in two minutes. No pressure.)
Follow it, and the 2018 gold is practically yours. Or maybe just that six-pack.
Check out the workout on Men's Health.

Shuttle SH67H3 reviewTechRadar Pro
A space-saving gaming rig, but is the price for compactness too high?
A space-saving gaming rig, but is the price for compactness too high?
Does a touchscreen make this media centre PC invaluable?
Atom returns with an extra core, and it's coming for your media box
Despite the diminutive sizes of its machines, Shuttle appears to be getting itself some serious delusions of grandeur. You can't possibly make a small form factor gaming machine. Can you? Well, with the machines that Shuttle has been putting out recently these delusions have become reality.
Small form factors cases are cool, right? They're compact, light and look awesome. Unfortunately building a gaming rig out of one is usually impossible, with space enough for nought but a puny pixel pusher. Not with Shuttle's latest barebones system though; the XPC SX38P2 is just about as high end as you could wish for.
When you're thinking about small-form factor PCs I'm willing to bet the notion of glamour barely enters your head. I'm sure like most of us you'll associate the word with grubby shots of large-breasted, plastic ladies posing for calendars destined for the walls of garages across the land.
Shuttle pioneered the small-form factor PC, and we're sure there are plenty of those shoe-box sized systems up and down the country. So it's refreshing to see the company is trying something new with this slimline, stylish PC
That hulking PC you've got hooked up to your TV really isn't doing your stylish living room justice is it? What you need is a quiet, good-looking machine to cater for all your media centre needs. Enter Shuttle's latest mini media centre PC, the X200M

Comments On Feb 25, 2016:The tire is average when leaning into corners.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Nov 23, 2015:I find EN works best for around TN mountains with a good hook up just about everywhere no matter what terrain it is, almost like a trials tire with better breaking on steep down hills. Great price from RM.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Mar 23, 2015:This tire is doing just what I needed, works great on the miles of rough, rocky and fast fire roads I run to get me to the woods, then it even works great on the grass tracks, single tracks and snotty trails. Handles rough downhills too which is great for around here. Have almost 100 mi fast, rough riding and the tire shows hardly any wear.
Now my go to tire for the Husky beast, ordering a spare.
Additional Comments On Sep 11, 2015:This review is for the front tire btw.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jun 10, 2015:I decided to give these tires a shot based on the positive reviews. I do mostly trail riding in the mountains and run between 10-14psi depending on conditions. They do track well in rocks, roots, and intermediate terrain. The things I'm not so stoked on have to do with wear and traction specifically on the rear tire. Although the rear stays in line and grabs well through rocks and roots like I was saying before, it does not hook up so well on dry hard pack sections of the trail. It's hard to really be aggressive coming out of a corner because the back end wants to break lose or slide out. I will say that it's fairly predictable though. The other potential issue is wear. I'm not sure if I just didn't pay close enough attention to the knob height when it was brand new, but after only 5 hours or so, they seem pretty worn down and rounded off.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Apr 29, 2015:The tire had an extremely soft carcass and had to run 14+ psi to keep from pinch flatting and rolling the sidewall of the tire. It handled pretty well, but would get loose as I transitioned into a turn then would grab once I was totally leaned over. Eventually, it developed a split that ran all the way to cords.

Comments On Oct 28, 2014:Great tire, great hook, predictable on most terrain, last longer then most tires I've ran
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jul 31, 2014:I bought front and rear tires for rocky jeep trails and single track. The front tire has really impressed me. It works okay in soft terrain (i.e., sand) and is great on hardpack and rocks. The side knobs do not chunk when riding at speed in very rocky terrain. This is the first tire I can say that about. The rear tire works great in rocks, and gets very good traction on hard pack, but performs so poorly in sand that it is not useable in AZ. I got hung up on hill climbs that I had never had problems with before due to the poor performance in soft terrain. I took it off after two rides, and put on an IT rear with the EN front. Nice combination for my Summer riding.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Apr 27, 2014:Switched from a Maxxis IT front tire, and love it! Hooks up much better on hard terrain covered with light gravel. Hooks up great everywhere else too! No flats (yet), and seems to be wearing well.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Feb 23, 2014:Awesome tire. Grips well (no wash outs) and is VERY durable and long lasting. My go to front tire for all my trail riding in northern Idaho.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jan 17, 2014:Used this tire in ST. George and in Vegas, then back home in the deserts of AZ. Maxxis really has a great tire with this one.
I don't buy tires because they last for months. I buy a tire because it performs well. This performs well in a variety of terrains. It is very predictable cornering and gripping.

It's finally here-2014! The new year awaits us right before our eyes and I could not be any more excited and happier for this fresh new start for all of us. It was by far one of the best years I've experienced both personally and professionally. I challenged myself and went after things I thought I couldn't accomplish. It was a year full of growth, learning, highs and lows, laughter, joy, disappointments… I mean, it was a little bit of everything. With all of the amazing highs I was blessed with, I also had to deal with a few obstacles/challenges/lows. I feel very proud for going through everything and pulling through because it has definitely help made me who I am right now.
I'm a bit more in tune with my feelings; I'm more confident, I believe in my dreams more, I love the people around me more than ever, I'm challenging myself to be better at everything, I'm more open to things… the list goes on. It was definitely the year of growth and happiness.
I want to thank each and every one of you for being a constant source of inspiration to help keep me going by reading your sweet comments, emails, letters or when I meet you in person. Thank you for following along and joining me on my little journey of style, travel, food and everything in between. Thank you for all the love and support you gave me/ my blog/ my shop in 2013 and the years before- it means the world to have you right there with me. Thank you for visiting my blog and taking time out of your day to check in on my life! You guys are amazing and just remember, If I could follow my dreams and live out my dreams, YOU can too!! Don't give up!
Wishing you a blessed 2014 full of health, prosperity, happiness, love, passion and success! May this year bring you everything you ever wished for and more… work hard + play harder! Dreams do come true- let 2014 be the beginning of that dream! Cheers!
See you in 2014…. love you all. x
ohh.. here's a recap of some of my favorite looks of 2013… enjoy!

COLUMBIA COUNTY, Ga. (WRDW) -- News 12 has learned an off-duty Columbia County Sheriff's Office bicycle deputy was hit by a truck along Furys Ferry Road on Monday afternoon.

SHERMAN, TX -- Sherman Fire Chief Jeff Jones says a cigarette sparked the fire last night at a Sherman apartment complex.
The fire started around 7 p.m. Thursday night at the Country Village Apartments. Firefighters say the blaze started in a downstairs apartment in building 800.
Crews were able to keep the fire contained to that unit, but three other apartments were damaged.

Beleaguered Young Africans (Yanga) chairman Lloyd Nchunga yesterday tendered a resignation letter to the secretary general of the club, Celestine Mwesigwa, to end the long standing chaos at the club.
Nchunga said he has resigned to restore peace and tranquility at the club and he would remain loyal member for the rest of his life.
He said his decision has come after taking into consideration a lot of factors, including saving the club from a possible relegation after violation of constitution by angry members who don't bother what happens to the club in their inexorable quest to kick him outside the club.
Nchunga has been under pressure from members of the club who have been demanding his immediate resignation.
The unfortunate Nchunga, who came to power after the club's elections held in July 2010, endured a torrid moment right from the moment he was elected to hold the post.
However, he was successful to cool down members of the club after leading the club to their third Mainland premiership title in four years under coach Sam Timbe.
The Ugandan coach played his cards right as he successfully added silverware, the Kagame Cup, three months later last year to create a heavy cushion of members scorn against Nchunga.
The club calmed after hauling the two silverwares but row erupted in March as the club looked unable to retain the premiership title.
Yanga had otherwise a good run towards title retention bid but the situation worsened in March and April when the team lost precious points through defeats in their last six matches before winding up the season.
Yanga's council of elders had demanded to take charge of the team ahead of their Mainland premiership derby against Simba early this month.
Nchunga would not bow to the demands of the elders' council and went on to lead the team under the executive committee.
Yanga suffered a five-goal comprehensive demolition at the hands of their rivals Simba on May 6 for the crisis to escalate further.
Over 700 members had met at the clubs headquarters in Dar es Salaam last Sunday and decided to overthrow him from the chairmanship post on grounds of violating the constitution.
They alleged him of not holding an annual general meeting ever since he stepped to power while ignoring a decision to hold it in mid July.
The news of Nchunga's resignation will be received with pomp and celebrations by the members who attempted the 'coup d'etat' that has been strongly deplored by the Tanzania Football Federation.
Impatient Yanga members were also involved in blocking former chairman Imani Madega from seeking re-election before holding an election that saw Nchunga stepping in.
Madega fortunately handed over the chairmanship at the end of the tenure to remain an ardent member.
Yanga finished third in the premiership standings, the worst position in the past five years.

I'm confident that I do not need a password for my computer. How do I remove passwords for things like when the screensaver activates and installing software?
While this statement is a general attitude that I dont agree with, in the spirit of answering your question, I'll continue without further biased objectification.
There are a few areas of the system that you can utilize to process this request. First being the "Screensaver Password" that you mention. Go to System > Preferences > Screensaver In there, you need to disable the checkbox titled "ALock screen when screensaver is active"
On the login screen you can set an auto-login to a user. System > Preferences > Login (this may be system > administration > login.. please verify as I'm not in-front of my Linux PC) you can then set the system to auto-login a given user.
However please note that after you have logged in, if you have stored passwords in your couchdb it will prompt you to enter your password to unlock the keyring so your wifi can auto connect (as an example)
Regarding your software installation password, there is no way to default this that I'm aware of, as sudo will ask you for a password. This security model is enabled so you have to think about what you're doing before you make system-wide changes such as installing software.
Please see: this link. it will help to explain why the current security model should be the default.
"Nobody will ever compromise my computer." falls under the category of Famous Last Words. Reconsider.
That said: for the screensaver, go into the screensaver preferences and uncheck the option to ask for password. For administrative tasks,
There's a multitude of reasons why having password protection on sudo actions, or login, but if you really need to not do this you can do it like this:
Find the line with your username and change it to the following:
That should give you the results you require...

Couldn't DPReview have used the new LR/ACR 8.4 beta before showing these pictures?
The camera is tack sharp, but because of the way DPreview processes their images they look soft.
IMHO not a good way from DPreview to show these pictures in this way as it unfortunately gives people false information regarding the quality of the lens/camera.

turn 16 bug
Chaos form/Zalzagul activated action skill on holy commander/lapierre which was not closed to get +6sp. to make matters worse he still got the normal +2sp next turn.
Also turn 14 chaos form used action skill to get 2sp without returning any closed friendly unit. which is a bug as its skill says and then.
Basically its action skill and maybe its start skill are messed up.
Also am not sure whether it is meant to return sp depending on closed units base level or actual level as level increasing mechanics can be used to generate sp.

Police say they pulled a man over for running a red light, but he's facing much more serious charges than the traffic infraction.
Greenville police arrested 37-year-old Bernard Jones of Bethel Monday night. Officers say they stopped Jones at West Third St. and Tyson St. in Greenville for running a red light. Police quickly discovered Jones was wanted for assault with a deadly weapon.
Jones was arrested on that outstanding warrant along with driving while his license was revoked. His bond was set at $18,000.

Donkey Kong was an arcade game that was Nintendo's first big hit in North America. It also marked the first appearance of Mario (originally known as "Jumpman", a carpenter) and of the original Donkey Kong. A version of the game was also created later for the Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo's first home console. The game sold well in the United States, becoming one of four games to be inducted into the Nintendo Hall of Fame. The original arcade version had four screen levels, but the Nintendo Entertainment System version only has three, with the stage 50m cut from this version.
Donkey Kong has escaped from his owner, Mario, and kidnapped Mario's girlfriend, Pauline (originally known as Lady), taking her to the top of a construction site. Mario must climb to the top of this construction site and rescue Pauline from the giant ape.
Official story quoted from Nintendo of America
[23][24]The flier for the game, which was handed out in arcades, toy stores and such."HELP! HELP!" cries the beautiful damsel in distress as she is dragged up a labyrinth of structural beams by the ominous Donkey Kong. "SNORT. SNORT." Foreboding music warns of the eventual doom that awaits the poor girl, lest she be miraculously rescued. "But wait! Fear not, fair maiden. Little Mario, the carpenter, is in hot pursuit of you this very moment."
Throwing fate to the wind, risking life and limb, or worse, little Mario tries desperately to climb the mighty fortress of steel, to save the lovely lady from the evil Mr. Kong. Little Mario must dodge all manner of obstacles- fireballs, plummeting beams and a barrage of exploding barrels fired at him by Donkey Kong. Amidst the beautiful girl's constant pleas for help, your challenge is to maneuver little Mario up the steel structure, while helping him to avoid the rapid-fire succession of hazards that come his way.
As little Mario gallantly battles his way up the barriers, he is taunted and teased by Donkey Kong, who brazenly struts back and forth, beating his chest in joyful exuberance at the prospect of having the beautiful girl all to himself. It is your job to get little Mario to the top. For it is there, and only there, that he can send the mighty Donkey Kong to his mortal doom. Leaving Little Mario and the beautiful girl to live happily ever after. "SIGH. SIGH."==Characters==
- Mario (aka Jumpman) (Hero, Playable)
- Pauline (Goal, Unplayable)
- Donkey Kong (Villain, Unplayable)
[25][26]The cabinetDonkey Kong was created when Shigeru Miyamoto, under the supervision of the late Gunpei Yokoi, was assigned by Nintendo to convert Radar Scope, a poorly selling arcade game in North America, into a game that would have more appeal to gamers. Shigeru Miyamoto later admitted that he did not focus on the story of the game. He also said that Jumpman (later to be renamed Mario) and the Lady were not intended to have a relationship, and he did not know where the connection idea came from, but he thought that it did not matter much. Regardless, the resulting game was a major breakthrough for Nintendo and for the video game industry, becoming one of the best selling arcade machines of its time. Its platforming gameplay also distinguished it from most other arcade games at the time. [27][28]Concept art for Mario.In 1982, around a year after the game's release, Universal Studios sued Nintendo, claiming that Donkey Kong infringed on Universal Studios' intellectual property rights to the film King Kong. Howard Lincoln, attorney and future president of Nintendo of America, decided to fight the case and hired seasoned attorney John Kirby to represent Nintendo. When Kirby showed that not only was Nintendo not in violation of any copyrights, but also that Universal Studios themselves had sued RKO Pictures in 1975 to prove that the plot of King Kong was in fact in the public domain, Judge Robert W. Sweet ruled in Nintendo's favor, ordering Universal to pay Nintendo $1.8 million in legal fees. In an ironic twist, Judge Sweet also ruled that Tiger's King Kong video game, licensed by Universal, infringed on Donkey Kong. After the victory, Nintendo awarded John Kirby with a $30,000 sailboat, christened the Donkey Kong, and gave him "exclusive worldwide rights to use the name for sailboats."

In 2007, a documentary film directed by Seth Gordon based off Donkey Kong was released. The film centers around high school teacher Steve Wiebe as he tries to achieve a world record for obtaining the highest score in the game, which is held by Billy Mitchell at the time.
Sequels and ports
[29]Mario (Jumpman) about to jump over a barrel.===Sequels=== Donkey Kong has four sequels to date.
- Donkey Kong Jr.
- Donkey Kong II (Game & Watch)
- Donkey Kong 3
- Donkey Kong (Game Boy)
In addition to the arcade version, Donkey Kong was ported into several other gaming systems and computers:
- Game & Watch
- GBA as Classic NES Series: Donkey Kong. This version, as the title implies, is not based on the arcade version, but rather the NES version, meaning 50m is also omitted.
- e-Reader for the GBA
- Famicom Disk System
- Atari 2600
- Atari 7800
- Atari 8-bit computers
- ColecoVision
- Intellivision
- Commodore VIC-20
- Commodore 64 (Two official ports exist, one released in 1983 in North America by Atarisoft, and another released in 1986 in Europe by Ocean.)
- Texas Instruments TI-99/4A
- Amstrad CPC
- ZX Spectrum
- Coleco Adam
- Amiga (Port is not official but rather a homebrew ported directly from the Commodore 64 version)
- Coleco Tabletop
- Apple II
- In Game & Watch Gallery 2 and Game & Watch Gallery 4, Donkey Kong was one of the minigames. It could be played in both modern and classic modes.
- Two different ports of Donkey Kong have appeared on Virtual Console. The first, released in 2006, is essentially a direct port of the NES version, while the second, entitled Donkey Kong Original Edition, attempted to adhere to the arcade version, and was pre-installed for the European release of the Mario 25th Anniversary limited edition red Wii in 2010. This version restored some missing animations and the level 50m, which was cut from the NES version, although Donkey Kong mistakenly stands still in this level, and while the port's graphics are an improvement to the NES port, it is still inferior to the true arcade version, which remains unavailable on Virtual Console. The latter port was made available on the Nintendo eShop in the US between October 1, 2012 and January 6, 2013, exclusively to members of Club Nintendo who have, within the aforementioned time frame, linked their systems to their Club Nintendo accounts and have purchased the downloadable version of one of five select 3DS titles (one of which was Paper Mario: Sticker Star). There are currently no plans for a wide release of this version in the U.S.
Donkey Kong was also re-released as part of two compilation games, Donkey Kong Classics and Donkey Kong/Donkey Kong Jr./Mario Bros., and it is featured as a playable extra in the following titles:
- Animal Crossing (NES version included as minigame)
- Donkey Kong 64 (arcade version included as a minigame)
- Super Smash Bros. Brawl (demo version included as a Masterpiece; it starts on the third level, 75m, which is also an unlockable stage in Brawl).
- Main article: List of Donkey Kong staff
- For this subject's image gallery, see Gallery:Donkey Kong (game).
[30][31]The arcade machine found in the Frantic Factory.*The twenty-second board is the final level of the game; Mario instantly dies within eight seconds of playing in the level, regardless of how many lives the player has left. This bug, known as a kill screen, happens due to a programming oversight in which the game does not have enough memory to continue. Games such as Pac-Man and Duck Hunt also have kill screens.
- Donkey Kong was the second platformer ever made; the 1980 game Space Panic was the first.
- Intelligent Systems' own website claims credit for developing the NES port for Nintendo, but neither the cartridge nor title screen mentions the company.
- There is an alternate rendition of the game called Crazy Kong, which was apparently licensed by Nintendo for non-US market distribution. Home ports exist as well.
- The Commodore 64-exclusive Mario's Brewery is based on Donkey Kong, although very little is known of its authenticity, and it is assumed to be a fangame or pirated copy of another game.
- Mario is discolored on the boxart for Donkey Kong for the NES.

Enrique Muniz was a Starfleet crewman assigned to Deep Space 9 and the USS Defiant in the 2370s. He eventually became a good friend of Chief Miles O'Brien, whom Muniz called jefe, Spanish for "chief". O'Brien affectionately called him "Quique". In his youth, Muniz attended carnivals with his father. He had the same birthday as Jake Sisko.
In 2372, he was on board the Defiant when it rendezvoused with a Karemma starship in the Gamma Quadrant. When two Jem'Hadar attack ships attacked the Karemma, they tried to escape by entering the atmosphere of a nearby gas giant. The Defiant followed the ships into the atmosphere where it was fired upon and severely damaged. Miles O'Brien sent Muniz to a Jefferies tube to assist Jadzia Dax. When the internal force fields began to collapse in that section, Muniz managed to get out, but Jadzia was left behind.
Muniz later returned to engineering to help O'Brien and Stevens to repair the ship. When Worf arrived to take command of the ship after Captain Sisko, he criticized Muniz and Stevens. O'Brien reminded him that neither of them had attended the Academy and were not used to be commanding a starship. Stevens and Muniz later came up with a way to modify the deflector array to turn it into a phaser emitter. Their plan worked and the Jem'Hadar ship was destroyed. (DS9: "Starship Down")
Several months later, Muniz took charge of an engineering team on DS9 after O'Brien was recovering from his Argrathi punishment. (DS9: "Hard Time")
In early 2373, Muniz was part of a Starfleet survey team from DS9 that traveled to the Gamma Quadrant planet Torga IV to assess the possibility of establishing a mining operation to extract some of the planet's rich deposits of cormaline. A Dominion ship crashed on the planet and was later followed by another who destroyed the team's runabout and landed Jem'Hadar troops. Muniz was wounded by the Dominion weapons, but was saved by O'Brien and Worf and taken into the ship. The anti-coagulant in the Dominion weapons soon took their toll on Muniz and his bleeding continued. O'Brien and Worf clashed after Worf told him that Muniz was near death. As time went on, Muniz soon lost feeling in his legs and became delusional, believing he was watching a carnival with his father. Muniz eventually died of his wounds during the crew's attempt to use the ship's engines to escape.
After the Defiant arrived, rescued the crew and towed the Dominion ship off the planet and back to the Alpha Quadrant, O'Brien sat with Muniz's body, performing a traditional Irish wake. He was joined by Worf who commented on its similarities to the Klingon tradition of ak'voh. (DS9: "The Ship")
