Beast Hunters? What's that?
I just know the cover and solicitation for Regeneration One #95 made me pee my pants a little.
Beast Hunters? What's that?
I just know the cover and solicitation for Regeneration One #95 made me pee my pants a little.
That's my jacket!
So I saw Metroplex in person. Wow what a robot! I don't think I can buy this one though because there's not much to it as a city. What I want is one of those big spread out things like a matchbox 20 car city only it transforms!
Our own Springer and Blitzwing personally two of them each. But I've never transform Springer. I saw him in almost at Comic Con and I'm not fond of the helicopter. I'll use my voice you're from whatever you're was to depict him that way.
has to Blitzwing I might buy a third but tank in robot are better than jet.
I really did not see anything else I want it that's coming out recently.
BAD Pts Need: R5-C7 lf leg (x2), , R4-P44 right leg BAD Pts Offered For Trade: PM me - I have lots of parts now including BG-J38!. New Kyle Katarn is also available.
Thrilling 30 or whatever, the comic deluxes, wave 1.
Each comic uses the Retailer Incentive cover art from their respective comic only with a slightly closer crop on the character, and a different background - white faction logo with sloppy splatters. The books are not staple-bound but glue-bound with a stamped pre-crease to the covers front and back so as to remain as readable and cheap as possible. The character name and another faction logo are on top, company logos are on the upper left, bottom has the "Transformers Generations" brand name, and the back is black with company logos in the lower right. The issues are their complete story and have a preview blurb, and have no advertising except for the last 3 interior pages, all IDW, the first ad being a "read more about it in..." being the corresponding comic line each book came from (Autocracy, Police Action, Ongoing, and MTMTE), then an ad for the current ongoing Transformers comics but not by name although showing art for RID in each, and finally an ad for the IDW digital app and website. Inside there's no mention of the actual issue title, instead it's treated in the copyright as "The Transformers: Orion Pax" and a first printing despite "Hasbro exclusive cover" being on the front.
- Orion Pax, I hate this cover art on the included comic, it doesn't look like the toy, it doesn't look like the character in the book, it looks like a haggard old man.
The vehicle is too simple, hollow, and incomplete in the back, but not awful and has some nice touches. Transformation is very interesting, something new in how things flip around, but also can lead to variance that requires massaging to get vehicle right. Axe just plugs onto the side of the vehicle, nothing clever at all, and the gun can do the same or plug into a 5mm gap in the axe head. Paint on mine has the Autobot logo off-center. Truck hints at the vehicle in the book, but the cab is smaller, less integrated to the vanes in the back by being set forward, and the midsection is heavily indented, so the toy is definitely more a pickup truck than that of the comic.
Robot mode is almost a cross between Orion and Optimus in how much bulk is carried to the legs and chest, it has more of that heroic proportion, but the face saves it with a very youthful look. The head is small and has light-piped eyes ending in blue paint, that's weird. The chest is a big windshield with an interior techno-chest and an Autobot logo, The shoulders don't lock onto the torso as much as I'd like, but are ok. Transformation is fun once you get the order of the chest and backpack-wheels down, but relies heavily on dumping the whole front end and sides onto the boots. Orion feels pretty small and light, but has good articulation to be expressive. His gun is a fat version of the classic Optimus blaster and looks very nice, almost too much for a youthful character like this. The axe looks good with a translucent orange head and black-painted handle that has a 5mm grip in the middle and a peg on the side of the axe head.
Overall, Orion Pax is not a bad figure, but proportional issues and a bit too much reliance on shell hold it back from all it could be. At $13, grade B.
- Bumblebee, art is tolerable although the left hand is creepy robotic, and the face is too mature.
Vehicle mode is very good, I quite like this, very solid too. Looks clearly inspired by the art in the book's vehicle mode, but more aggressive. Rolls well despite facade robot chest being under the engine bay. Transformation to this is interesting, although I am pretty sure they left out a step about sliding the rear fenders out and there's some alignment that requires everything to be in the right place at the right time. Stinger weapons peg into the rear fenders, they don't look particularly well-integrated though.
Robot mode is a touch simple and bulked out for my tastes, but has an ok amount of detail overall. The upper torso telescopes down but isn't clear where it stops, if it pushes all the way then it locks out the waist articulation and causes the back to bend away, but if it stops at the first stop then the chest gets in the way of the chin and it's a bit floppy. My biggest frustration is the woefully loose knees, kneepads, and ankles, this is just a head-scratcher. Runner up would be the greenish yellow paint applied to the forearms and the stinger weapons, it doesn't come close to matching, they shouldn't have deco'ed those parts black underneath if they wanted yellow matching. Articulation is good, shoulders are a little confusing perhaps, and head is only a swivel. Stingers can plug into the undersides of the forearms, or snap together to make a nice blaster; leaving out the cane was a mistake though. Transformation is an odd one to get started, but mostly follows the basics of an Autobot car.
Overall, Bumblebee has good points but also some areas where he doesn't bring the heat. Grade at $13 is a C and maybe a bit higher if you're in a good mood.
- Trailbreaker, Trailcutter, whatever. This cover art doesn't remind me much of the figure because of how convoluted the shoulders and torso are, I prefer the simplicity of the art inside the book and the simplicity of the figure to this.
The vehicle is an SUV with louvers on the side windows and a bulky profile. The sensor-thingy is permanently above the truck, hinged to look up or down, let's just call it lights. Or not since there's cannons right below that above the cabin roof. Because the truck is taller than most deluxes, they shrunk its overall footprint. The truck is black with translucent blue windows and the red and yellow pattern from the G1 design. The overall sculpt is a touch simple, especially at the unpainted rear end, but barely holds the line. Wheels turn, miraculously on the front end since only the outer half of the wheels are really wheels, the inner half are dummies. The truck design is earth-based rather than the Cybertronian design in the comic, but that's ok. Mine annoyingly came with 2 left doors instead of a left and right, so at the moment he's got a gap on the right side. There are some alignment issues, a lot of massaging to get things lining up in the midpoint, and it's far too easy to cave the hood in which requires de-transforming the arms, kind of a pain in the butt, yet it's solid overall. A good amount of 5mm pegs here, 1 on the sensor, 2 on the roof, 2 under each door. Transformation is alright, mostly straightforward stuff, the instructions make it seem like more than it is.
Trailbreaker's robot mode is simple and direct, which is what you want from Trailbreaker. Headsculpt's good, light-piped blue eye wrap-around - cartoon based, I guess. He's got good bulk and feels right for the character, proportions end up where you'd want. Transformation is mostly straightforward, but the chest takes an interesting twist and folds the cabin and hood together in a neat way, although this leaves the shoulders able to peel away from the body slightly; the lower biceps sometimes slip out of the uppers during transformation. Detailing is chunky almost to the point of being overly simplistic, but has enough little touches to keep it alive, yet this is almost too far a throwback figure - more color could have brought out the little sculpted things. Articulation is alright, not all it could be due to simplistic stuff, but adequate. Weapon is a shield/twin-cannon affair right from the Clayton Crain cover art, it's got a red fold-out handle that fits overhand on the right hand and works fine flipped underhand on the left, although why a guy who projects forcefields needs a physical shield is beyond me; the front half of the shield can be folded back in and the affair pegged onto the sensor or into a shallow one directly under it, there's also MORE pegholes exposed in bot mode, one more on each shoulder, and one on the upper back which is too far behind kibble to let the shield use it, so that's probably for Hoist.
All in all, this is a likeable figure but is too simplistic for its own good, and the massaging to get a decent alignment in vehicle mode can be a chore, so I'm giving the grade a C+ and not in a bad way.
- Megatron's cover is this figure, period, the end. Clayton Crain obviously had this toy in his hand or something, he even avoided the purple "M" detail on the helmet this design enjoys in EVERY other instance except this cover and this figure.
Vehicle mode transformation is like 90% WTF and then the last 10% when you attach the accessories as the outer wings becomes BRILLIANT. It's just "wedge, wedge, solid wedge, beautiful B2 bomber"; if you lose those wings, the toy is nothing, the vehicle might pass for a bricky submarine or a streamlined cyber-rat, but it'll never be in any way threatening. The vehicle is very dark gray with purpley-dark silver accents and red windows, the underside adds translucent and opaque purple bits and the plastic equivalent of purpley-dark silver. There's a fold-down front landing wheel (non-rotating) to correspond to wheel-nubs sculpted to the underside midway points. The lower half of the plane is a bit kibbly and you can see Megatron's face staring down at the ground, but isn't too much of a thickplane offender.
Robot mode transformation, you must remove the outer wings for transformation, it seems like you could leave them on but there's a rotation clearance that must be adhered-to and the wing pieces are translucent plastic AND a system of levers, it's a really poor idea to try. Sometimes the shoulders will pop off their ball joints, wipe the joint clean of mold oil and it should lessen the odds of that happening. The instructions feel like this thing is going to take forever but there's an elegance to it once you've done it, there are ideas that I can't remember ever seeing executed this way before, it's most impressive. I can't stop transforming it, even if I didn't like anything else about this figure, I wouldn't be able to help but transform him over and over.
Robot mode is what you see on the cover, it's dark and it's menacing and it's got a wide chest and long legs, it's imposing... right up until you put it next to FOC Starscream, where they stand about the same size and Megatron's head is smaller. Still, it's an impressive Megatron look, the vents on the shoulders and forearms makes a strong statement, the cockpit broken up by the Decepticon logo is powerful, the look is very commanding. It looks like it'd be fragile, but it's actually quite solid, except for the outer boots which are hinged to fold out for some reason, these hinge open and closed easily but you barely would notice. Tons of sculpted details, very little is left plain. The forearms are somewhat bulky though. Deco is everything good from the upper side with the purple and purpley-silver added to the mix to bring it to life, forgoing the neon purple panel line accents seen in the comic - although I prefer it that way. The eyes are pitch black most of the time, they used translucent purple plastic but until you get a flashlight blaring into it, it's pretty lifeless.
The weapon deserves its own conversation, the wing tip halves plug together (not all that efficiently) to make a twin-pronged fork thing that doesn't look like much. It has a 5mm peg so it fits in either hand, but is meant for the pegholes on either forearm. When you pull the "sights" at the top backwards though, the forks slide forward together and expose translucent purple plastic with tech detailing, and now you've got something. Is it a fusion cannon? Package says yes, so who am I to argue? Does it look like the twin-bladed forearm weapon in the comic? Sure. Whatever, it's cool and it transforms a little. That said, this thing is likely a point of failure down the road - moving parts, translucent plastic, sandwiches together from 2 halves, what do you think is likely to happen? The first time I tried it, I pulled one of the forks clean off its runner and out of its lever, didn't realize the whole thing is transformed from the back instead of the front, but it held up.
Overall, Megatron here gets an A- from me, I really like this figure, it's got tons of personality and clever ideas in the transformation. Its grade slipped from the small stature and kreoforming the vehicle mode to completeness, but this figure gets a big smile and recommend from me overall.
Despite the grades, my ranking would be Megatron > Trailbreaker > Orion Pax > Bumblebee.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
Kylo Ren - came from Space Brooklyn, although he moved to Space Williamsburg before it was trendy.
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
Nice review, JT. Can't wait to geab Megs. Heck, even the rest of them. I don't care
I still can't fathom why they left out Bee's cane. They could've even given him a rifle that obviously doubles as the cane without explicitly stating that's what it is. That's an important characteristic for this version of the character at this time.
That's my jacket!
I found the IDW deluxes today - Grabbed Pax and Trailcutter and then suddenly thought of JT's one with 2 left doors so I tried inspecting the two on the pegs carefully. However, that caused me to lose out on Megatron as a person shopping for a child's birthday grabbed it. Mentally I was thinking "get Bumblebee instead, get Bumblebee instead" but the mind trick didn't work at all.
Now that I've had MP Soundwave for a week, he's not as impressive as MP Optimus. That being said, I'm glad I don't have to compete with everyone for him at all the local TRU's.
I saw Beast Hunters Prowl but didn't feel like buying it.
Good God, I'm not sure what they're from, or if they're just Facebook reveals, but the FB page has pictures of Scoop (!!!) and he's surprisingly sweet.
That's my jacket!
What has not held up on MP Soundwave for you? Also, you didn't have to pay tax... OR WAIT IN LINE. You're welcome.

Ah, but I *did* get in line for MP SW! Friday of the con, I left my hotel at 4:30 am, got into line shortly before 5 am, got to EE shortly after 9, only to learn of the raffle distribution.
We were told to return at 11 for the results and so I did. Only it took until 11:30 or so and that's what caused me to miss the Hasbro SW panel.
The one thing I'm not really liking is the quality of the minions/cassettes. Rumble's and Frenzy's accessories especially. Pegs on the guns are slightly misshapen and take a slight bit of work to fit onto their backs. It shouldn't be mold degradation already, should it?

The main purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of bevacizumab in combination with radiation therapy to see what effects (good or bad) they have on patients with soft tissue sarcoma. Bevacizumab is an antibody designed specifically to slow or stop the growth of cancerous tumors by decreasing the blood supply to the tumor. Bevacizumab is approved by the FDA in combination with intravenous 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy as a treatment for patients with cancer of the colon or rectum that has spread. However, the use of bevacizumab in combination with radiation for sarcomas is still under investigation.

Kevin, Jerry is right, yes that pains me to say that! I was there when she retrieved her first duck on a hunting trip in the swamps, by the way that was my duck she picked up first, and this nearly brought tears to my eyes to see how well she is doing. She is a good dog and friend and we all wish her well. I think your decision to fight this as well as work on her title is admirable. As long as she is up to it Dallie and I will will continue to train and hunt with you and Girl. I am glad she is doing well and hope to get her in the swamps again soon.
Jerry, those are awesome pictures that you posted! Thanks for taking the time to take them on training day. It is situations like this and people such as Kevin and yourself that make Yadkin River Waterfowl and Retriever club the best!
I am not very good with names either but I am still partial to "Girl Broke One Off In That Yelllow Dog"!!!!!! (refering to Jerry's avatar) Fitting for a Chessie, I think! Ya'll know I am just kidding!

was leaving to go to work last night and Jr. and I were watching the weather. He said to me looks like it will be a good morning to sleepin. I responded by telling him" You can't kill them by staying in bed"
I told him to put his cell phone under his pillow and I would call him at 0430. I made the call and he was up waiting for me to get home. We made the short drive and got to where I wanted to be. I knew the birds would be starting late if they gobbled at all due to the wind and rain . I think he was about to give up hope when at 0609 the bird we were after let a gobble rip. And just like many other mornings I point in one direction, and he in the other. (I have since learned to trust his hearing.) We got setup and I received a answer on my first set of calls. Well as things go in the spring woods the bird only gobbled twice more on the ground and that was it. We got up and moved about 50yds closer to the bird and I called and a hen cut back at me. Okay game on girl. She would cut me off every time I called, on about out 35th move I whispered to Jr. this is it the woods are too open and we might bump them. No sooner did I get that out of my mouth and Jr. said don't move here comes a hen, and another and 5 others followed buy you guessed it strutting the entire way. They were about 75yds out and I made a call, the hen cutt back and he gobbled. I cutt at her and she cutt back and he again gobbled. They came to 32 steps and I thought you are in trouble mister. Jr. and I were setting almost on top of each other. I could feel his breathing get short and heavy, his gun bobed and weaved like he was on a ship and I thought he will never be able to hit the gobbler. I whispered get ready, no reply from Jr. I nudged him, the safe went "click" I cutt and the lead hen had us dead to rights, she got nervious and the gobbler dropped out of strutt. I whispered "kill him" and the gun roared. Birds flew everywhere and Jr. was up and running. As he got to his bird he raised his arms and gave me a big smile and said " we did it dad" After a few hugs and high fives we were off to the truck. Great morning for us, 08 has been full of excitement.We have had 4 other longbeards in and he just could not get a good shot,to having spitting contest when the birds did not come, and me getting knocked off my feet by a eletric fence that has not been on for the past 3 springs.
There is never a dull moment when we are hunting. I guess that is what it is all about. Just seeing him grow to love the sport and the great outdoors. I am proud to call Austin my hunting partner and my son.
His bird weighed 23.04 lbs
10 3/4 " heavy beard
and 1 1/8 hooked spurs..

In the last couple of weeks I've read quite a bit about a program that General James Mattis has introduced to the U.S. Marine Corps. It's a 2 week training program called "Combat Hunter". It utilizes police officers and big game hunters to teach infantry personnel hunting skills that they can use in combat situations.
You can read more about this in the December issue of "American Hunter Magazine" or if you're a member of the NSSF, you've probably already received information about it.
I think it's important that we are all aware that the skills that we routinely use as hunters area also quite valuable to our troops who are defending our freedon.
It's just one more reason that we can be proud to be hunters and shooters.

You gotta be kidding!
With all the legitimate gripes you could come up with, you pick on his public speaking skills? His ability to speak off the cuff?
He spoke and took open, non-scripted questions for 2 hours in front of the republican causus last year, WITH NO PROMPTERS.
Bush or most of the republican leaders (at least the ones with their own shows or SoTU responses) couldn't do that in their wildest dreams!
come on, find something legit to ding him about....not this. Makes you look like you "got nothin'".

By Alice Ortiz/Monroe Journal
AMORY – You know it's getting close to spring when lambs are born.
Newborn lambs are popping up almost daily at the mini farm of Jimmy and Theresa Glenn of Amory.
About four years ago, Jimmy had several cows that got to be too many for one person to handle. He got rid of them and kept thinking he needed something for the couple's mini farm.
"I knew someone in Smithville who had sheep and so I got some. Sheep are really easy to handle," Jimmy said.
He said the sheep eat the grass down to zero and are very docile.
"I like to keep close to God's creation and our grandchildren love the animals. We just enjoy having the sheep," Jimmy said.
Jimmy said there are herds of sheep in south Mississippi that have from 5,000-8,000 head. The sheep he has are the Katahdin breed, which are a unique breed developed to produce meat efficiently and economically.
The meat is described as excellent. The breed is also known as easy lambers and excellent mothers. They have 150 days gestation, are low maintenance and do not require shearing.
"You can't have sheep without dogs and we have two Great Pyrenees dogs that live with the sheep. Sometimes you see the lambs or sheep laying next to the dogs. The dogs keep other animals from bothering the sheep," Jimmy said.
Within the past week, there have been nearly 20 babies born, some are single and some are twin births. Before it is all over, Jimmy expects to have nearly 25 to 30 more baby lambs born.
There is a large demand for lamb meat now due to so many Europeans living in Mississippi.

Oh look. Another run through the recent arrivals.
Ten people with no information. One with a name and nothing more. Two with information that's not enough to certify on. That leaves eight. Hello, Google...
misa's name shows up all over rpmfind. pop has a vim/mutt script and an opportunity to practise my French :) garett, ts, geekd and ahvezda all have links to free software straightaway. mdz is a Debian maintainer. I suspect someone with a better appreciation of what's involved should re-certify the latter two. Way over my head. I suspect those are journeyer-level things, but I don't know.
Then some not-sures. I am not sure whether surveys count, and I don't know what else grex does. I followed the links from hawk but they only refer to a game. I can't find it anywhere. Googling on the game produces only references to it or dead links. I need to find my dictionary to know what to make of the site hns linked to. And finally, there's nile and dloo. I recall the dloo announcement on Gnotices, but I haven't seen anything since. So I'm a bit stuck there.
My certificates are very low, I know. To those people who feel affronted: the usual disclaimer. I can't judge other people's code. If I know something about the project or the person then I can make a guess on where they might rank. So some people get higher ratings because I know enough about them. I don't know the projects that came up following links in this lot. With luck, someone who understands these things will follow the same links and adjust certifications accordingly.
As to people complaining about certification or lack of them, please please please provide links to contributions that are out there. I spend a few hours (not much, but more than some) trying to certify new arrivals. I try very hard to find a reason to certify someone that is in line with the guidelines. Seeing people complained that they are not certified when I've just finished the latest run through irks me, frankly.
If you want to fork Gnome, Ilan, go right ahead. But until I see a package out there I can download or a HOWTO I can read, I can't certify someone who largely complains about what's wrong with things without explaining to the uninitiated (that's me) what would be right, and how to fix the wrongness. Deven, all I found on your pages was articles from a few years ago (the certs guidelines suggest evaluations should cover the work done in the last year) and a conferencing system which didn't have much info about it. It's also not the number of certificates you have that swings it. It's whether any of those people are close enough to the trust root for their appraisals to make a difference. Well, as I understand the write-up of the trust metric anyway. I dropped maths at 17, and I got lost in the trust metric write-up as soon as I saw "each certificate is a directed edge". Um. Right. But I assume hackers know more maths than I do.
Oh yes. And I should be an apprentice, but I can't change what other people put. (If you put higher, please reconsider.)
I think that's it for another month. I shall return to lurking and enjoying the threads of conversation that meander through the recentlog page.

Message From the Director
Why take honors? It's a question I have been asked many times by students and parents alike. My first response is to assure you that General Education Honors at Rhode Island College is based on quality, not quantity. The amount of work required in honors classes is comparable to the requirements for nonhonors general education classes. What differs is the opportunity to participate with other bright and motivated students in small classes taught by some of the finest professors at the College. In addition, honors classes provide an opportunity to discuss and analyze subject matter in more depth and with more individualized attention.
My second response to the question is the obvious one. Participation in the College Honors Program has practical rewards. It can help when it comes time to compete for a job or for a place in the graduate school of your choice. We have an enviable record of placing honors students in some of the best graduate programs in the country. That is particularly true of students who choose to do senior honors projects in their majors. Many students and parents have come to the conclusion that it makes both academic and economic sense to participate in an honors curriculum at a less expensive undergraduate college and thus to save money for graduate school.
Ultimately, however, I think the most important reason to consider joining the honors program is the desire to extend yourself intellectually, imaginatively, and personally. We can help you do that in a supportive yet challenging academic atmosphere in which you will interact with committed full-time faculty and, equally important, with other students who share your academic abilities and interests.
I hope you will consider joining us.

Director, College Honors Program

It's Showtime May 21st Preview: Amir Zeyada vs. Sahak Parparyan
- Written by Rian Scalia
In the fourth fight of the main card, the It's Showtime 85MAX World Title is up for grabs as Sahak Parparyan and Amir Zeyada battle it out for the belt.
Amir Zeyada has spent his career fighting in lower weight classes such as -70kg, -73kg and -77kg. This will be his first fight at -85kg, a big step up in weight. His last fight took place at -76kg and he lost that one against Murthel Groenhart. Having not fought for over a year you have to wonder if he'll be ready to face such a challenge in Sahak Parparyan. Judging from the weigh in pictures, Zeyada looks to have spent the time putting on the weight properly.
Sahak Parparyan is the exact opposite. He's spent his career fighting in the higher weight classes, most recently at -95kg back on March 26 against Marco Vlieger where he won a decision. Sahak looked much thinner than I've ever seen him at the weigh ins, as shown in the picture above. Once again, you have to wonder how the big change in weight has affected him. Just 2 months ago he fought at -95kg.
The fight being a 5 round fight should also ask some questions. Both men have proven they can go the distance, but with the new weight class, will they be able to last for all 5 rounds? Zeyada is a pretty high paced fighter while Sahak likes to take his time. We can't assume how the new weights will affect the fighters except for that usually getting bigger will slow down a fighter and cutting down will result in more speed and better conditioning if done right. Zeyada is the one who is moving up and Sahak the one who is moving down. Zeyada looks to have put on the weight well and surprisingly looks a bit bigger than Sahak.
Amir Zeyada has lost a lot of fights in the lower weight classes. Most of the times he's just gotten outskilled and a few times stopped. Moving up in weight isn't an easy task. A lot of fighters who move up can't maintain their chins in a higher weight class. Zeyada has been dropped and stopped before at lower weight classes. Sahak isn't a knockout artist by any means but he is primarily a puncher who throws hand combinations. With Sahak having fought at higher weight classes, it's hard to see him being hurt by Zeyada as well.
With Sahak primarily throwing punches, Zeyada will have to utilize his kicks which he can throw quite hard. Zeyada's kicks are the key to wearing Sahak down and limiting the power on his punches. It'd be better for Sahak to throw some kicks also as Zeyada is pretty susceptible to low kicks. Sahak will need to be active with his hands and work combinations to the body and head. Sometimes Sahak won't be active enough and that will result in Zeyada throwing a lot of hard kicks at him.
With both fighters changing weight classes, it's hard to say who will get the better of the weight change. I'd lean towards Sahak as he's fought in higher weight classes and felt power that Amir Zeyada probably doesn't possess. With Zeyada having been worked so many times in lower weight classes, it's hard to see him being able to withstand the Sahak's punches even though he isn't even a big puncher. 85kg is 9kg above where he last fought. That's almost 20lbs that he's moved up and 20lbs more power that he'll have to withstand. You also have to ask if he'll be slower with the added weight.
I favor Sahak in the fight just because Zeyada has never fought this high in weight. While Sahak has gone down almost 20lbs, it should only make him better. Zeyada won't be able to phase him and should be there all night for Sahak to hit him. Sahak will just have to stay active and he should be able to wear Zeyada down, possibly stopping him.

By Tiernan Ray
Enterprise network security equipment maker Sourcefire (FIRE) this afternoon said its chief executive officer, John Burris, will retire, effective immediately, following a medical leave he had taken.
Sourcefire's CTO, Martin Roesch, will continue to serve as CTO while the board of directors looks for a new CEO, the company said.
Burris went on leave in July as the company disclosed he would receive treatment for colon cancer.
Sourcefire shares are up 4 cents at $48.00 in late trading.
Burris said in prepared remarks:
While I am sad to announce my retirement, I am excited and confident about the Company's Agile Security vision and the strong team we have assembled to execute on the growing opportunity in front of Sourcefire. I feel that a dynamic company like Sourcefire deserves a CEO that can solely dedicate his or her efforts to the future of the company and therefore, I believe my retirement at this time is in the best interest of our shareholders, customers and employees.
In the same press release, Sourcefire said its results for the current quarter ended last month will be slightly higher than previously forecast, without offering specific numbers. The company back in July forecast revenue this quarter in a range of $54 million to $56 million, and the Street has, on average, been modeling $55.5 million.
Fire competes with a number of network security technology, and related technology, vendors, including Palo Alto Networks (PANW), Fortinet (FTNT), and Check Point Software Technologies (CHKP).

This week, the remaining Challengers leave Costa Rica and head to Buenos Aires, Argentina, which our girl Jenn pronounces "Bwaynos Airies." We're down to four guys' teams and three girls' teams. I guess that means TJ isn't living in Mel Gibson's house anymore. When you watch this show on MTV.com, there are little popups for each section of the episode, and the one for the first ten minutes is "The cast goes mental in Argentina." Which is always a good way to start. More

I entered the RIC/URI Joint Ph.D. program with one goal: to think critically and systematically about educational equity. I had taught middle and high school English, had served as principal in a K-8 setting, and had counseled college students with disabilities. I knew that classrooms were contested spaces, where some flourished and others floundered. I also knew that individual ability and effort were not the only variables, probably not even the main ones. A question nibbled at the corners of my consciousness until it set up camp right in the center, impossible to ignore: How might classrooms function less as sorting mechanisms and more as democratic learning communities?
I chose to explore this question as a doctoral student in the RIC/URI Joint Ph.D. program. Under the guidance of an exceptional faculty, I researched, reframed, and refined my question. Fellow doctoral students in my cohort had other questions. Our questions became the focus of communal inquiry. Together, we encouraged, prodded, and challenged each other. We functioned as the democratic learning community I envisioned.
I now serve as an Assistant Professor of Foundations in the Department of Educational Studies in the Feinstein School of Education at Rhode Island College, where I teach undergraduate and graduate courses that emphasize the theoretical and social justice aspects of education. My students (teachers and teacher candidates) and I continue to examine my original question and pose others, which we research, reframe, and refine. Graduate study at Rhode Island College expanded not only my intellect–it expanded my world.

Mission Journal: Behind bars in Burundi
"They like me in here," editor Jean-Claude Kavumbagu said of his fellow prisoners. But sub-Saharan Africa's only jailed online journalist still pays protection money to stay safe in Bujumbura's Mpimba Prison.
The Net Press editor has been here since police arrested him on July 17. He was charged with treason over an article that questioned the competence of Burundi's security services.

News Releases, Media
For Immediate Release: Contact: Ron Harris July 10, 1998 Sharon Snyder Ian Stirton Kelly Huff
WASHINGTON The Federal Election Commission is seeking public comment on proposed rules relating to the receipt and use of prohibited and excessive contributions, also known as "soft money," by national, state, and local party committees.
The proposed rulemaking emanated from separate petitions filed in 1997 by the President of the United States and five Members of Congress, the former urging the Commission to ban soft money and the latter asking the FEC to "modify its rules to help end or at least significantly lessen the influence of soft money."
Contributions permissible under the Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA) are referred to as "hard money" contributions. Contributions that are not permissible individual contributions in excess of the statutory dollar limits, all corporate and labor organization contributions, and contributions from federal contractors are referred to as soft money. These funds are to be used exclusively for state and local campaign activity or other party committee activities that do not influence federal elections.
The notice of proposed rulemaking invites comment on options for regulating soft money, including whether or not new rules are necessary, whether the Commission has the authority to promulgate rules in this area, and whether the proposed rules contained in the notice are within the scope of that authority.
Option one in the proposal would be to make no changes to current rules. National parties would continue to be prohibited from receiving and using soft money in connection with federal elections, but soft money for non-federal election related purposes would be permitted. Non-federal accounts would be permitted for these non-federal election purposes, along with the building fund accounts specifically authorized by the FECA.
The second option is to make revisions to the current rules, consisting of a core proposal and three variations on that. The core proposal would prohibit the receipt and use of soft money by the national party committees, and would eliminate all national party non-federal accounts except building fund accounts.
Variations to the core proposal include:
Modify the core proposal to allow national party committees to raise soft money for the limited purpose of making direct or earmarked contributions to state and local candidates.
Modify the core proposal to ensure that hard money transferred from a national to a state or local party committee is spent using the rules applicable to the national party committees, rather than the state or local party committees more favorable allocation ratios (a mix of hard and soft money).
Modify the core proposal to require state and local party committees to finance their mixed activities entirely with hard dollars.
The proposed rulemaking states, "The objective of the proposed rules is to ensure that soft money is not used to influence federal elections. In order to achieve this result, the core proposal virtually eliminates the soft money available to the national party committees to subsidize activities that influence federal elections. Both the first and second options recognize the limited scope of the FECA, and acknowledge that national party committees have other purposes besides the election of federal candidates.
"The major difference between the two options is whether most national party committees federal and non-federal activities are inextricably intertwined, or, as the current rules suggest, can be separated in a way that will ensure that soft money is not used to influence federal elections," the proposal continues.
The notice stipulates that the proposal does not represent a final decision by the Commission. The Commission will consider the proposal again after a comment period and public hearing. That comment period extends to September 11, 1998. A public hearing is presently scheduled for September 23.
All comments should be addressed to Susan E. Propper, Assistant General Counsel, 999 E St., NW, Washington, DC 20463. Faxed comments should be sent to 202-219-3923, with printed copy follow-up. Electronic mail comments should be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Full text of the soft money rulemaking proposal is slated to be published in the Federal Register on Monday, July 13.

text: Before you hang this totally on Obama, the bill passed the House 339-3. Where were the stalwart protectors of freedom in the House majority party when this slipped through in the middle of the night? This actually a tweaking of a Viet Nam era law signed into law by Richard Nixon. He got damn tired at looking at protesters and parked city buses around the White House, He threw hundreds in jail for merely exercising their First Amendment rights. It was wrong then and it is wrong now.

Sony has previewed its PlayStation 4 with a new game called Driveclub featuring a pair of Mercs that will both be released next month, one at the Geneva motor show, the other at New York.
Sony Computer Entertainment didn't show the new games console or talk to its specification - but the rendered video footage from Driveclub with the CLA 45 AMG and the A 45 AMG looks fantastic.
The two AMG-tuned cars feature the most powerful production four-cylinder available - a two-litre making 265kW and 450Nm - and mark a departure from the AMG modus operandi of shoehorning large V8s into cars that don't really need them.
The release schedule for the new PlayStation, and the Driveclub game, have not been confirmed beyond "this holiday season".

By Brad Locke/NEMS Daily Journal
STARKVILLE – There is plenty of excitement about Mississippi State hosting an NCAA regional for the first time in 10 years, but a look at the three teams coming here this weekend should have a sobering effect.
The No. 14-ranked Bulldogs learned Monday that South Alabama, Mercer and Central Arkansas also will participate in the Starkville Regional. MSU is familiar with all three teams, but especially Central Arkansas, which came into Dudy Noble Field the weekend of March 8-10 and took two of three games.
MSU and UCA, the No. 4 seed, will meet at 7 p.m. Friday following No. 2 South Alabama versus No. 3 Mercer. The double-elimination regional will end either Sunday or Monday.
The Bears (39-20) will roll in here after winning the Southland Conference Tournament. They outscored MSU 14-8 over the final two games of their series, and those turned out to be State's only two non-conference losses of the season.
"They're a good, scrappy team," MSU shortstop Adam Frazier said. "They're going to fight and bring intensity every game. I guess we understand how to play them now, and hopefully we can come out on top this time."
Senior pitcher Kendall Graveman, who was touched for four runs in 52⁄3 innings by UCA in the series finale, said he thinks the Bulldogs were looking ahead to starting SEC play the next weekend.
"To be focused is one thing that we're really focusing on this week, is to lock in on baseball only and really try to get going," Graveman said.
tough lineup
Aaron Fitt of Baseball America wrote that MSU has the toughest of the 16 regionals. Coach John Cohen was quick to trot out the RPI argument to back up that claim.
South Alabama, which until recently was in the discussion as a host team, has an RPI rank of 17th. Mercer is 29th, while Central Arkansas is 62nd.
"So we're going to have to pitch well, play really good defense, and treat this like another SEC weekend. Because essentially that's what it is," Cohen said. "That's the level of competition that we're going to be playing."
MSU won at South Alabama, 6-4, on April 2. It played Mercer in Starkville last season, taking two out of three games.
So scouting these teams won't be too taxing of a chore for the Bulldogs.
"It's something you can't replicate on paper. You can look at as many scouting reports as you want, but to actually go out and play these guys is different," Graveman said.
This is MSU's third consecutive regional appearance under Cohen, who's in his fifth year as head coach. State won the Atlanta Regional at Georgia Tech two years ago, and it was eliminated in the Tallahassee Regional at Florida State last season.
The winner of the Starkville Regional will play the winner of the Charlottesville Regional, hosted by Virginia. The Cavaliers are the No. 6 national seed, so they would host the super regional round – scheduled for June 7-10 – if they advance.
Play Ball!
At Dudy Noble Field, Starkville Friday
Game 1: Mercer (43-16) vs.
South Alabama (42-18), 2 p.m.
G2: Central Arkansas (39-20) at
Mississippi State (43-17), 7 p.m.
G3: G1 loser vs. G2 loser
G4: G1 winner vs. G2 winner
G5: G3 winner vs. G4 loser
G6: G4 winner vs. G5 winner
Monday, June 3

This story's taking on a life of its own. After blogging the story, NPR's CEO was ousted. See updates below.
* * *
I don't meet high-powered media executives in upscale restaurants to discuss Big Things, so the snobbish anti-Semitism you'll see in the undercover video below is something I'd only hear about.
NPR fundraisers Betsy Liley and Ron Schiller (the latter's already fired) were caught on tape pandering to two people posing as members of a fictitious Muslim Brotherhood front group. The meeting was ostensibly to discuss a $5 million donation, because "Zionist coverage is quite substantial elsewhere."
You'll hear them discuss Jewish media ownership, Zionist donors, and joke about NPR standing for National Palestine Radio. You'll also hear provocative comments about NPR's federal funding, Juan Williams, uneducated Americans, the Tea Party, and more as they enjoy Cafe Milano's fine dining.
What disturbs me most is where NPR was prepared to turn for money. "Ibrahim Kasaam" and "Amir Malik" identified themselves as representing the fictitious Muslim Education Action Center (MEAC) Trust, and told Schiller and Liley straight up that MEAC was a Muslim Brotherhood front.
I wonder if NPR has real foreign donors we should be concerned about.
So far as NPR's concerned, the real damage control is more about taxpayer money, not Jewish or Arab money. What probably made Schiller untenable for NPR was when he said:
"Frankly, it is clear that in the long run we would be better off without federal funding."
For more background on the sting, see the Daily Caller and Alana Goodman.
UPDATE 2:05 pm: A statement on NPR's blog — which stressed that Schiller wasn't involved in editorial decisions and that it never accepted a check — condemned his comments:
We are appalled by the comments made by Ron Schiller in the video, which are contrary to what NPR stands for.
The blog includes Schiller's apology, which also clears some confusion about his job status:
While the meeting I participated in turned out to be a ruse, I made statements during the course of the meeting that are counter to NPR's values and also not reflective of my own beliefs. I offer my sincere apology to those I offended. I resigned from NPR, previously effective May 6th, to accept another job. In an effort to put this unfortunate matter behind us, NPR and I have agreed that my resignation is effective today.
Project Veritas, whose people posed as the donors and filmed the meeting, explain their side and posted the full 2-hour video of the meeting (it's two hours long).
Finally, I'm glad to see on that NPR blog that the network does some vetting of donors:
CEO Vivian Schiller tells David that NPR became aware of those peculiarities, and that NPR was vetting the organization. And he has obtained e-mails (not from an official NPR source, but which have been verified by NPR) showing that the network last week asked the fictitious Ibrahim Kasaam for, among other things, verification that the Muslim Education Action Center was qualified as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. It was not, of course.
I'm still concerned that NPR fundraisers would entertain the notion of accepting such large donations from anyone billing itself as a front for the Muslim Brotherhood. Sounds too much like those silly Zionist media conspiracies we hear about from time to time.
UPDATE 4:40 pm: NPR's media correspondent David Folkenflik, tweets that the network's board of directors ousted CEO, Vivian Schiller (no relation to Ron). They're clearly worried about the federal funding issue.
UPDATE 6:48 pm: Before this sorry incident, Schiller (Ron) was due to simply leave NPR for a similar position at the Aspen Institute. That plan's up in smoke.

Terre Haute -
Found the OTC Vader's TIE Fighter today at TRU, $29.99.
I also bought a 12" Zuckuss on clearance for $10.
I found a J'Quille at Target on Saturday. That made my whole weekend!!
Great find OC! That blows my OTC TIE out of the water.
Saw the OTC TIE Fighter and X-Wing at TRU today, but passed on both. The OTC packaging is hard to resist though.
The New Albany Target supposedly has/had the OTC lightsabers. Other than that, nothing in the south.
Clinton Wal-Mart:
Picked up a second Dodonna to open and found a HOF Stormtrooper conscript for my growing Imperial Army.
Terre Haute, IN
Wal-Mart finally has the OTC lightsabers. Pegs were recently stocked, but with HOF and Star Destroyer wave. Snagged a TIE Fighter Pilot and another Stormtrooper.
Paris, IL
Wal-Mart has the OTC lightsabers. Most figures are '02 SAGA.
The Clarksville TRU has the OTC X-wing, and the VOTC figures are hitting various stores in the Louisville area. I haven't personally seen them yet but one store is like 10 minutes from work.
I just found the the Galaxtic Heroes and the VOTC figures at a K Mart in Martinsville, IN. Real nice figures! If you have not seen them, they come in a clear protective case with the rebel and imperial symbols in the upper corners of the protective case. I did not buy any yet, because I thought the price was a little high ($9.99). I think I will wait until Wal-Mart gets them and check their prices.
Thank you
I am looking forward to finding the Galactic Heroes. Where are you finding them? Next to the "Rescue Heroes" type toys in the preschool section, or by the Star Wars figs?

Everything I read about this ISP assumes I know more than I do. Can someone please give me a simple idiot-proof set of directions so I can get this working even if I don't understand what I just did? Something like: "get an xxx connector and wire it on the breadboard to pins blah-blah, then plug in the ISP and start Z program and tell it to burn." I think I'm that competent.
You can write your sketch using the Arduino IDE and then upload it to your chip using the "Upload using programmer" menu option. You need to download an extra driver to use the AVRISPmkII with the Arduino IDE (sorry, I can't remember where I downloaded mine from).
Arduino 1.0.1 has AVRISPmkII support as standard...
Quote from: fungus on Nov 20, 2012, 12:41 pmArduino 1.0.1 has AVRISPmkII support as standard...Yes, but I still had to find a USB driver for the AVRISPmkII. The one that was installed with AVR Studio wasn't recognised by the Arduino IDE. [EDIT: unless I was still on 1.0 when my AVRISP arrived...]

text: URMC / Encyclopedia / Content Hypnosis What is hypnosis? Hypnosis is a state of consciousness resembling sleep. The mind is in an altered, relaxed state. When under hypnosis however, you can still concentrate on memories, sensations and other things. Hypnosis is used to learn to control bad habits, pain, stress and many other health conditions. Some mentally healthy people are unable to go under hypnosis while others are very susceptible to this form of therapy. However, hypnotism will not work if the person does not want to be hypnotized, and the subject of hypnosis can interrupt it at any time. Hypnotism requires trust and imagination. When hypnotized, your heart rate may decrease, body temperature may change, and blood flow to certain areas may be altered. The state of deep relaxation can divert attention from pain and other negative stimuli. Hypnotism can even be used as a pain reliever during certain surgeries, such as dental surgery. Hypnotism can be used for many situations including to: Reduce pain Stop smoking Reduce anxiety Improve depression Overcome a fear or phobia Hypnosis and memory retrieval Using hypnosis to extract hidden or vague memories may not be reliable. Although there is a widespread belief that hypnosis produces accurate memories, researchers found that hypnosis does not work well as a memory-recovery method. In addition, people who have been hypnotized tend to feel confident that their memories are accurate, contributing to the persistence of false memories.
