The crown jewel of Michigan's 2009 recruiting class, former five-star defensive tackle Will Campbell found himself floundering on the wrong side of the ball as his sophomore campaign crawled to a conclusion.
An immense talent coming out of high school, Campbell's weight, which at one point topped the 350-pound mark, hindered his mobility and technique when firing off the line of scrimmage.
With his capacity to anchor the middle of the defense from his nose tackle spot in question, Campbell was in danger of becoming one of the biggest busts in U-M recruiting history after a requested move to the offensive line was granted by former coach Rich Rodriguez and staff.
"I don't know what it was, but he just wasn't getting the job done," said senior defensive end Craig Roh about Campbell's first two seasons as a Wolverine.
Campbell has a better idea of what was impeding his progress as a collegiate athlete.
"It was probably me being so heavy, I decided I wanted to go to offense," Campbell said. "It was me being lazy."
A change of the guard in Schembechler Hall brought about a change in attitude and work ethic for the former Cass Tech standount.
But it wasn't easy.
"When Coach Hoke and the staff came in, they really just tore him down, kind of like they tore me down," Roh said. "Now he comes in and he is really positive, ready to work.
"His attitude is great all of the time. He is always ready to work, always ready to come in and motivate the guys. I think this season is one that he can really come out and be the guy for us.
"I see the way he works every day, and just seeing the kind of player he wants to be, it gets me excited that he can do what people always expected of him."
"Will is bringing a whole lot of energy, and not just with his mouth but with his play," redshirt junior offensive tackle Taylor Lewan said. "He's always competing with everybody, getting off the ball and using the right technique."
Campbell, who has worked his way down to a fit 315 pounds, has responded to the tough love mentality of Hoke and Co., and thrived under the emphasis put on the defensive interior.
"The coaching staff we have now, it's not just one defensive line coach, its three," Campbell said. "All of them are experts at this position so when you mess up once, you get yelled at.
"When you get yelled at, you don't think about it as much, but it's when you stop getting yelled at that you start to get worried. I would rather get yelled at than not get looked at.
"During fall camp, I was in a slump going down, but towards the end of the season I talked to Coach Montgomery, Coach Hoke and Coach Mattison. They basically helped rebuild me and I went on my ride."
Campbell has stepped up as a leader for a defensive front desperately needing one, holding offseason film sessions for his younger linemates and leading by example on the field.
"Will would lead the defensive tackles in sprints, he was always the first one," Roh said. "If you are always the last guy, no one is going to listen to you because you're not setting the example. I think he is setting the example."
Still, he knows that he must continue to improve both on and off the field to help U-M replicate the success of Team 132 in his senior season, and lessons from former Michigan defensive line greats, including Rob Renes and Brandon Graham, have been an integral part of his apparent late-career turn around.
"Rob Renes told me it's an every snap, every down thing," Campbell said. "He was coached by Coach Hoke, so the same things Coach Hoke is telling us today, he was being told - like go hard every play. You're not playing for yourself, your playing for your teammates and Michigan.
"Brandon Graham was super positive for me. He talked to me about his transition from inside of the line to the outside, how losing weight helped him become a better player. I just listened to him and tried to mold myself like that."
Ultimately, the most important step in the maturation of Michigan's top 2009 recruiting prospect came from within, and was driven by a sense of urgency as his collegiate career draws to a close.
"I'm just trying to step up and play to the expectation of my position," Campbell said. "That expectation is going as hard as you can every snap.
"I had to hit the switch at a certain time, and I saw my time coming short here. I decided it was time to go in my last season."


text: Ten years ago I was an avid B&W darkroom printer when I was at art school. Then, there were two FB papers advanced photo-students used, without exception. Agfa Multicontrast Glossy, or Forte Polywarmtone Glossy. Agfa people preferred the Multicontrast's neutral tone, Forte people couldn't get enough of the nice white base, subtle warm tone, and rich black of the Polywarmtone. I fell into the Forte camp. Those two papers seemed to be the only two worth discussing for fine printing. We used Sprint cold-tone developer provided by the school. The Polywarmtone in Sprint was great, Agfa printers often mixed up their own Dektol. Ilford Multigrade was considered a good "beginners" FB paper, and would do in a pinch if you ran out of the good stuff (most people had a box of Ilford Multigrade with a few sheets in it buried somewhere in their locker). I know that both Agfa, and Forte are no longer with us, and it wasn't my intention to start a "woe is the world of B&W printing" thread. But, I recently found a spectacular community darkroom within driving distance (at Light Work in Syracuse, NY) and am itching to get back into it. My question is- How good is Ilford Multigrade these days? It seems that there are about three brands left, Ilford, Oriental, and Kentmere. I have never tried Oriental, or Kentmere, I think Oriental was around back then, but I've never heard of Kentmere. Foma, another paper I'm not familiar with seems to be a "special order" at B&H, which makes me think it may be doomed? Any input would be greatly appreciated, I'm looking forward to getting back into the darkroom Thanks! -Erik

Fall Has Arrived
It has been cool here in the mornings and evenings. The days are getting shorter. I am happy to see the cooler temperatures but rain would be nice.
A week ago I woke up to knee pain. Unknown how that happened but it was terrible working all week. Today it seems a little bit better so I am hoping it is on the mend. It is hard getting older with all the things that seem to go wrong all the time. To top that off I had a Dentist appointment too. That went well though, I just hate going. So I am looking forward to a new week. I hope you are doing well.

If one of the signs of wisdom involves a recognition of how little one actually knows, then I suppose I have considerable wisdom. In the time since news of Sen. Larry Craig's (R-Idaho) arrest broke, I have been reminded of just how little I know about gay culture. Virtually every news outlet has been running stories of an epidemic of gay rest stop sex. I had no idea that anything like this existed! How could I have lived in ignorance for this long?
I've had a love of learning for as long as I can remember. I thoroughly enjoyed my formal education, but even then, I recognized that I wanted to continue learning throughout my life. Learning was not to be something that stopped when school ended; it would be a life-long pursuit. I suppose this drive explains a great deal about my pursuit of a career in science and even my arrival at atheism. Given the beauty and complexity of the natural world, it seems absurd to posit supernatural explanations. There is too much within nature to understand.
I suppose I've never known much about gay culture. I had a few openly gay friends in college and graduate school, but I've lost touch with them in the years since. There are very few openly gay individuals in my current circle of acquaintances, and I suspect this has a great deal to do with the rampant, religiously fueled anti-gay sentiment in this area.
Now it seems that I cannot listen to NPR or watch CNN without hearing something about the epidemic of gay sex occurring between strangers at rest stops and airport rest rooms across America. Who knew? How could I have lived in ignorance for this long?
I don't travel as much now as I used to, but I'm fairly confident that I've frequented rest stops hundreds of times while traveling. I never once saw anything that would make me suspect that gay men were having anonymous sex there. As a child, I went on hundreds of road trips with my family, and I never recall there being any concern about my using the facilities unsupervised. I guess my parents were equally ignorant of the epidemic.
Perhaps I need to take a break from reading about religion, atheism, and politics in order to learn something about gay culture.

As you may have noticed from my "Rob Thomas Sucks" post below, I was in attendance for the entire day of Live 8 in Philadelphia. I would say the concert was a success but more of a giant block party than a giant concert.
Performers I thought put on a good show:
Will Smith was a crowd favorite and his performance of Summertime was a highlight of the day. Kanye West was very good along with Alicia Keys. Jay Z with Linkin Park was another highlight for me. I'm not a huge hip hop fan or anything, but they seemed to stand out yesterday. Maroon 5's covering of Neil Young was a great surprise as well as whoever covered Phil Collins. That was a nice nod to the original Live Aid.
Things I thought were bad: The line up ordering was not good at all. Jars of Clay, Rob Thomas, etc. These artists may be fine and have some fans. But at a concert of Live 8's status you can't finish with these people. The only other notable problems I found were the lack of large screens, the lack of being able to see Pink Floyd, and the pretty poor sound at some spots.
I started the morning early by catching U2 and Coldplay live on AOL Music and took Septa down to City Hall with no problem. Most of the day I was on the outskirts of Eiken's Circle (I think that's what its called) and later moved up rather close with a pretty nice view of the stage. Beer and other beverages were readily available to those who came prepared. There were no conflicts of any kind that I saw.
This quicktime panorama is pretty crazy.
I'll post some pictures and a few videos I took from the day below. All in all Live 8 Philly was a blast, but the music couldn't come close to London's show.

Bonus points for whoever can find something goofy/funny/out of place in these pictures. (besides the pink dog.)

Fountains in Dachau
German cities are noted for their beautiful fountains, and Dachau is no exception. The first two photographs above show the red marble fountain in front of the old town hall. In the background of the first photograph, you can see the white umbrellas over the tables in front of the yellow Zieglerbräu Brewery and Inn. On the extreme left is the Hörhammerbräu Inn. The place where this fountain stands is the very heart of the Altstadt, as the old town is called.
The red marble fountain was designed by Ignatius Taschner, a famous Dachau artist who used to hang out at the Zieglerbräu with his great friend Ludwig Thoma, a well-known writer who lived in Dachau from 1894 to 1897. It was erected in 1915 to replace the former town fountain which was moved to the corner of Wieningerstrasse and Freisingerstrasse. That section of Freisingerstrasse is now called Konrad-Adenauer-Strasse.
The second photograph above shows a close-up of the tall column of the fountain. On all sides of the column are the carved figures of men and women wearing the traditional dress of Dachau. One can see a display of these regional folk costumes at the District Museum which is on Augsburgerstrasse, only a few short steps from this fountain.
The first photograph below shows the fountain which used to stand in front of the old town hall and the adjoining Zieglerbräu building. Shown in the photograph is the intersection of Wieningerstrasse and Konrad-Adenauer-Strasse. The fountain is on Konrad-Adenauer-Strasse. The building in the background is the Kreichgauer House where Dr. Erika Mayer treated prisoners from the concentration camp for dental problems.
The second photograph below shows another Dachau fountain with one of the stalls of the Saturday market on Pharrstrasse in the background. In the third photograph is a modern fountain which stand on Augsburgerstrasse across from the Teufelhart Bakery. In the background is the Unterbräu which is down the street from the bakery.

text: W.Va. high court rules against RichRod in house-sale case By Kate White November 9, 2012 Story Share CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- The West Virginia Supreme Court reversed a lower court's ruling and unanimously agreed with a Weirton couple who sued former West Virginia University football coach Rich Rodriguez and his wife over a house sale on Cheat Lake.The high court unanimously agreed with Weirton attorney Raymond Hinerman and his wife, Barbara, who sued Rodriguez and his wife, Rita, for fraud and wrote that the case shouldn't have been thrown out without a sufficient opportunity for discovery in the case.The case will be sent back to Monongalia County Circuit Court.The dispute began in 2010, when the Hinermans agreed to purchase the Rodriguez's house on Cheat Lake for about $1.3 million.Shortly before the sale, Rita Rodriguez discovered a water leak in one of the basement rooms. After the purchase was made, the Hinermans filed suit, claiming the leak and the damage it caused had not been fully disclosed and had been fraudulently concealed from them.Monongalia Circuit Judge Phillip Gaujot ruled in favor of the Rodriguez family. He determined that the leak and damage were disclosed, that the Hinermans purchased the property anyway, and that they were not entitled to relief.Hinerman, representing himself, argued that the purchase agreement's "as is" language applied at the time the contract was signed, but that the damage occurred later.Hinerman contended that he and his wife had inspected the property themselves, but the room with the leak was filled with toys and not able to be inspected. Gary Wigal, the lawyer for the Rodriguez family, argued that the Hinermans had full knowledge of the problem before they purchased the house and that they had the option to obtain professional inspection of the home, and since they declined to do so, they gave up any right they might have had to have repairs completed at the Rodriguez family's expense."Upon further analysis of the Purchase Agreement, this Court concludes that the buyers are correct in their contention that the 'as is' and 'no repair' language of the Agreement relate to the condition of the property as it was on the date the Purchase Agreement was signed," the court's opinion states.The court ruled that a number of questions surrounding the water leak were left unresolved by the circuit judge's ruling."The buyers argued that discovery was needed to explore such matters as: when the water leak began; when it was discovered; the extent of the damage and its impact on the fair market value of the property; whether the sellers were at fault in causing or neglecting the leak; whether they concealed the problem; and whether any representations concerning the water leak were made to the buyers prior to the closing."Quoting earlier decisions, the high court said under circumstances in this case, the circuit court's ruling was premature and deprived Hinerman and his wife from developing the facts of their case.However, the court refused Hinerman's request for judgment in his and his wife's favor, saying that action also would be inappropriate at this stage of the case.Rodriguez, a Marion County native, left his job abruptly as head football coach at WVU in December 2007 to become head coach at the University of Michigan. He was fired there after three seasons, and is now in his first season as head coach at the University of Arizona. The lawsuit will be sent back to circuit court for deposition of witnesses and for trial before a jury, if necessary.Reach Kate White at email@example.com or 304-348-1723.

New Mexico Governor Backs New Illegal Immigrant License Proposal
New Mexico Governor backs new immigrant license proposal
Gov. Susana Martinez spokesperson says she has come to a comprise on the issue of granting undocumented immigrants drivers licenses. (AP Photo/Albuquerque Journal, Roberto E. Rosales)
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) Republican Gov. Susana Martinez is backing a proposal that would offer temporary drivers licenses to certain immigrant youths but stop New Mexico from continuing to grant licenses to other immigrants who illegally came to the country.
Martinez spokesman Enrique Knell said Wednesday the governor worked closely with Senate Republican Leader Stuart Ingle of Portales and Democratic Sen. John Smith of Deming in developing the legislation that he described as a reasonable compromise.
However, immigrant rights activists oppose the bill and say it will discriminate against young immigrants who can qualify for a drivers license because the federal government has allowed them to legally remain in the United States.
This is a false compromise, said Marcela Diaz, executive director of Somos Un Pueblo Unido, a Santa Fe-based immigrant advocacy group.
The legislation would grant only temporary licenses, which couldnt be used to board airliners or enter a federal building, to young immigrants covered by a federal policy deferring immigration enforcement.
Those immigrants, who came to the United States as children, can obtain work permits, and Diaz said they can receive Social Security numbers, which would entitle them to a traditional drivers license in New Mexico and other states.
Diaz said in a statement that the legislation manages to discriminate against immigrant youth who are lawfully present in the United States by forcing them to apply for a discriminatory, one-year license.
by Barry Massey, Associated Press
7:09 am on 02/14/2013
Besides the temporary license for some young immigrants, the legislation would create two separate licenses for state residents to choose from one complying with the federal Real ID Act, which imposes security standards for drivers licenses, and a license that wouldnt meet the requirements of the federal law and couldnt be used to board airliners.
New Mexico and Washington state allow undocumented immigrants to obtain the same drivers license as a U.S. citizen. Utah grants a special driving permit to immigrants that cant be used for identification, such as to board airliners.
Martinez-backed proposals to scrap New Mexicos licensing system have passed in the House in the past two years with the backing of Republicans and a handful of Democrats, but the legislation has died in the Senate.
A House committee last month shelved a bill to stop issuing drivers licenses to undocumented immigrants.This article was originally published in forum thread: N.M. Governor backs new immigrant license proposal started by JohnDoe2 View original post

Little Boots is a pop star with a sparkly, bright edginess. She collaborated with designer Michelle Wu to make this adorable light up LED Dress.
The LED dress enhances her live show, as her body movement, the LED lights, and the music begin to play off each other in the most visually entrancing manner. Furthermore, the dress is a logical advancement of the Tenori-On instrument she uses (which has a grid of LEDs that control sound through touch).
The light-up instrument x the light-up dress = luminescent insanity.

Bears give Lancers tough test
Bears give Lancers tough test
STONINGTON — Stonington High's girls' soccer team gave unbeaten Waterford all it could handle Wednesday, and coach Dave Walsh thinks its a sign of things to come.
The Bears jumped out to an early lead in the ECC Medium Division game, fell behind, and then tied the score late before falling to the Lancers 4-3.
After Melino Spanos gave Waterford the 4-3 lead, the Bears had a couple of chances to get even again, Walsh said.
"We kept scrapping, we just didn't finish. But we'll take it. It was our best game so far. We played against a very good team and we fought for 80 minutes," he said.
Waterford (6-0-1, 4-0 ECC-Medium) outscored the opposition 15-0 in its first six games.
Gabby Silvia put Stonington in front 1-0 just under 8 minutes into the game, assisted by Ella Rath.
"Ella played a ball in. It bounced once and Gabby hit a half-volley over the keeper's head," Walsh said. "There were some good shots in this game. It was a typical Waterford-Stonington war."
Six minutes later, Tara Watrous made it 2-0.
"She got the ball around midfield, dribbled to just outside the 18 and hit a shot. She was a little off balance, but she drove it past the keeper chest-high to the keeper's right," Walsh said.
Waterford made it 2-1 with 4:30 left in the first half and tied the score early in the second half off a corner kick that the Bears had trouble clearing.
Hannah Swanson put the Lancers in front 3-2 with 15:30 left on a free kick, but Sarah Thomas tied the score on a 25-yard free kick with 10:10 remaining.
"It went just under the bar and just inside the upright. It was a perfectly-placed ball," Walsh said.
Spanos scored the winner with 6:20 to go on what Walsh called a breakaway.
"She's a very talented kid," Walsh said. "She just beat my kids on the dribble. (Keeper) Gabi (Hoops) came out and she put it underneath Gabi from maybe 12 yards out."
Walsh said Spanos, who had scored earlier, made about a 30-yard run in line with the right post and put the ball inside the same post.
Stonington (3-5, 2-2 ECC-Medium) had 12 shots and two corners. Hoops made 10 saves. Waterford had 13 shots and three corners and Amber Heenan made eight saves.
Asked what the fine performance says about the Bears, Walsh said "They're getting hunger. We finally settling down and training hard.
"We started slow. We had a tough schedule n the beginning. There were a couple of games we didn't show and we're paying the price.
"I knew it would take awhile. We're very young, but we're coming around. I think this is really going to be our coming out. I think we're going to play much better from here on out."
Stonington plays again Friday, hosting Montville at 3:45 p.m.

§ Rage towards one person/punish women expressing his rage
§ Often misdirected impulses of hatred toward random victim
§ Sometimes in name of politics or religion, but in general it's a crusade to hurt women who have hurt him
§ Believes self-importance is most important
Continuing this series about rape prevention--I previously wrote about power reassurance rapists, their MO, and methods of avoidance, and escape. I'm writing about these types in order of danger, from the least violent, the power reassurance type, to the most dangerous--Anger Excitation-Sadist. In this post, I'm going to describe the power assertive type, more dangerous than the power reassurance type of my last post.
Power Assertive (a.k.a. entitlement, exploitative, can be a "date rapist")
Methods of Avoidance
§ Will tend to terminate the rape if victim resists
§ Most likely of all rapists to be dissuaded if scream, cry, plead, or fight
§ Could be dealing with power assertive rapist starting off with softer approach – do not want to upset that rapist type
§ Start off with nonviolent tactics – crying, pleading, praying aloud – if he becomes verbally abusive, you do not have a power reassurance rapist
§ If you can attack his conscience, or his weak point, the better luck for avoiding the rape
§ Do not attempt to "talk him out of it" – he will interpret that as your enjoying it, like in a relationship – you must use more angry and shocking tactics
§ With this type of rapist, fight; although he will occasionally have a weapon, it is generally an empty threat and he will not want to deal with an overly resistant victim
Rapist Types and Methods of Avoidance
Power reassurance rapists
These are the most common types of rapists on college campuses. When rapes happen on dates, or at frat parties, they are most likely to be committed by this type of rapists. They are not wanting to harm their victim, while they may plan it ahead of time, more likely it is a crime of opportunity. Add to this the lack of good judgment and loss of inhibition that results from drinking lots of alcohol, and there you have the one of the scenarios for on campus rape.
That is only one scenario, though. Other times the attack might be preplanned by the offender. Here is a break-down of the behavior aspects of the power reassurance rapist:
A few pointers to avoid getting in this position:
- Statistics say that many rapes are perpetrated by someone the victim knows
- DO NOT ignore your instincts!! Those are survival signals, and you have them for a reason
- Rapists will try to 1. Keep you quiet, and 2. Finish quickly and escape undetected by others in the area. So fight, and keep fighting. Do not give in to any temptation to give up and let it happen. You don't know if you will survive if you give up, so FIGHT. And, scream, scream, and keep screaming. Scream"rape" and "help me"over and over. Fight like you are fighting for your life, because you probably are.
- Carry pepper spray, and practice using it. You can find it at police supply stores. Carry a body tazer, you can find those at police supply stores as well.

BIRTHDAY GUY: Actor Dylan Walsh was born in Los Angeles on this date in 1963. Walsh currently stars on "Unforgettable," although he may be better known for portraying Dr. Sean McNamara on "Nip/Tuck" from 2003-10. On the big screen, Walsh has starred in such films as "The Stepfather," "Secretariat" and "The Lake House."
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Pretty is as pretty does. A determination to do your own thing can seem exhilarating, but might create a barricade that excludes others. Go ahead and share some of your sizzling secrets.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your amorous antics should meet with positive reviews. You have no intention of being lonely tonight. When you passionately seek someone's exclusive company, that person will know you care.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Reach out and touch someone. Go out and meet new people and make new friends. A romantic interest could be at the top of the list. Follow a friend's lead when involved in group activities.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Dreams aren't just for sleeping anymore. You may find that sharing some of your secret fantasies and flights of fancy with someone else will help you find ways to make at least one of them a reality.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Dust off your cape. You are certain to be someone's superhero this weekend. Keep the praise and compliments you receive in perspective; don't let it go to your head. A hot new romance could blossom.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You might be considered a force of nature. Your fearless nature will not allow you to back away from a challenge. A passing flirtation with a member of the opposite sex could heat up the room.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): There is no reason to do a job alone when a special someone would be thrilled to be by your side. Buy something to delight the senses. Turn up the music; it's easy to find a willing partner to share delights.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Search for quality rather than just pretty packaging. You may meet someone dressed in a plain brown wrapper who offers everything you have searched for romantically, so be observant.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Double your pleasure. Hook up, pair off or grab a partner for a few rounds of old fashioned do-si-do. There is nothing square about dancing with someone who is in complete harmony.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Friends are wonderful, but lovers may be better. You may wish to be more than just friends with a certain someone. Be persistent and remain true to what you feel and you may find success.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): New friends or a change of scenery will do much to improve your outlook and perspective. A change of pace could be just what the doctor ordered. Have an adventure with someone who's romantically inclined.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It takes one to know one. Don't expect others to fulfill their commitments if you aren't willing to honor yours. Proof that someone is true blue and trustworthy comes to you from unexpected quarters.
IF NOVEMBER 17 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Your potential has a chance to shine brightly in the year ahead. Take good care of your health and don't overdo exercise during the next four to six weeks by taking on activities that you aren't in condition to attempt. Get a personal trainer, join a health club or otherwise find a support group to guide you. In April love might come along, tapping on your chamber door. That relationship might enter a new stage of commitment if it's meant to be in May and June. A permanent improvement may brighten your life during that time period, for instance a job offer or a special opportunity, or the answer to one of your prayers.

Over the past few weeks, we've seen images from the Sex and the City 2 set pouring in. While these photos include shots of the four friends dressed in the designer duds we've grown to love, we've also had a peek at some wilder looking '80s getups worn by the characters portrayed by Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis, Cynthia Nixon, and Kim Cattrall. We'll just have to wait until the movie comes out next year to find out the reasoning behind their Reagan-era hair and makeup. But in the meantime, let's take a look at what the actresses really did look like back in the day. Let's start with Carrie.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie sent a strong message to politicians and pundits in the nation's capital during his acceptance speech after winning re-election by a wide margin.
Christie said people in New Jersey often disagreed, but they were still able to work together to get things done.
"Now, listen, I know that if we can do this in Trenton, New Jersey, maybe the folks in Washington, D.C., should tune in their TV's right now and see how it's done," Christie said.
Christie described effective political leadership as listening, bringing people together, and working to make government function.
"I know that tonight, a dispirited America, angry with their dysfunctional government in Washington, looks to New Jersey to say, 'Is what I think [is] happening really happening? Are people really coming together?'"
Christie said getting positive results that benefit the public is the first job of all public officials.
"Under this government, our first job is to get the job done, and as long as I'm governor, that job will always, always be finished," Christie told a cheering crowd of supporters.

Tomb Raider: Chronicles
Review by Caleb_Stoffel
"She's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack........."
This is the well-endowed, apparent first review of Tomb Raider: Chronicles at www.gamefaqs.com. It is the fifth installment of the Tomb Raider Series(aka Tomb Raider, Tomb Raider II, Tomb Raider III:The Adventures of Lara Croft, Tomb Raider IV:The Last Revelation, Tomb Raider: Chronicles and Tomb Raider:The Angel of Darkness). Most people think that the Tomb Raider series will never get better, but I believe that as long as it maintains its good controls and spicy gameplay(TR:TOAD was NOT a good example of these qualities).
Gameplay 10/10:
There are 13 levels across 4 worlds all revolving around Lara Croft's friends and mentors telling stories of the past. Don't worry - you've never been to these places before. It features the same, grand old ''find-the-blue-key-to-open-the-blue-door'' gameplay ethics. Fun and entertaining.
Story 8/10:
The story isn't that exciting. The past titles have maintained a specific story that involved many dramatic elements. Danger, suspense, fear and courage to name just a few. But in Chronicles, there is no such story. Lara Croft has supposedly died in Egypt; as shown in the previous game. Now, her friends and mentors look back upon four of her previous adventures while awaiting word from Von Croy who is confirming her death. Still, the stories feature much entertainment. Story 1 features a bumbling duo of two artifact seekers. They are hilarious when they bump into Lara while searching. Another story features Lara as a teen, tracking down a mentor of hers in a very, very strange underworld on an Ireland island. It's extremely spooky! The final story is in a high-tech facility that features Lara in costume that could have been worn by Trinity and gameplay that is found is Splinter Cell. All in all, the story isn't all that bad.
Sound 9/10:
A few sound fx are out of line, but other than that the music is beautiful as in previous titles. Awesome.
Graphics 9/10:
Seeing as I bought this game three years after it was released, the graphics are........ ok. Water drips off Lara
as in TR4 and there are more animated moves in the enemies. Also in one level, when Lara is aboard a sinking submarine, the water and fire is portrayed beautifully.
Conclusion 8/10:
Despite a few sound hiccups and dated graphics, Tomb Raider Chronicles is still worth a play. It's only $10 people, how bad could it be? And compared to the latest Tomb Raider, this title ROCKS!!!!!!! How can you say no to the best TR title yet? See! You can't!

AgesandAges & Blitzen Trapper on Tour Now!
Portland 7-piece AgesandAges are heading out for dates with Blitzen Trapper in July 2011 to support their debut album, Alright You Restless, out now on Brooklyn's Knitting Factory Records. Alright You Restless is a rallying cry to like-minded souls. With a charmingly loose but clever pop sensibility the album is filled with lyrical references to voluntary seclusion, communal living and an existence "under the radar," all the while extending an invitation to join their fold.
The band's chief songwriter and founder, Tim Perry, says that forming AgesandAges was an attempt to combat being jaded, aconscious decision to "remove myself from the apathy crowd, which was sucking my soul, and make something with others who were just as unapologetically excited to be there as I was. I think of it kind oflike propaganda rock. They will never understand you. But we understand each other."

DENVER – The Detroit Red Wings were playing on fumes in the third period Friday, just trying to hang on against the Colorado Avalanche.
They survived regulation, and then got their second wind in overtime. That's when Pavel Datsyuk ended it by scoring with 15.4 seconds remaining, lifting the Red Wings to a 3-2 victory at the Pepsi Center.
It was Datsyuk's second goal of the game, his 13th of the season.
After squandering a game against a team not currently in a playoff position the night before, the Red Wings knew they couldn't do the same Friday. They swept the three-game season series against the Avalanche, who are last in the NHL.
Gustav Nyquist also scored in the first period for the Red Wings, who are 7-2-1 on the second night of back-to-back games.
The Avalanche tied it at 2-2 at 6:29 of the third period on PA Parenteau's goal. He went to the net and deflected in a pass from Jamie McGinn.
Colorado had several good chances to break the tie in regulation, outshooting Detroit 16-6 in the third period, but Jimmy Howard made a few good saves and got a couple of fortunate breaks.
Red Wings coach Mike Babcock juggled his line combinations and changed half of his defense following Thursday's 4-2 loss in Phoenix.
He reunited Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg, using them with Justin Abdelkader, and moved Johan Franzen from wing to center on the second line, with Valtteri Filppula and Nyquist.
He inserted Kyle Quincey (who had missed nine games with a fractured cheek bone), Ian White and Danny DeKeyser (making his NHL debut) on defense, in place of Brendan Smith, Carlo Colaiacovo and Brian Lashoff.
The Red Wings led 2-1 after the first period.
Datsyuk opened the scoring with a power-play goal at 8:27. He fired in a shot from slot after taking a pass from Franzen. It was Datsyuk's team-leading 12th goal, one more than Damien Brunner, who has missed the past two games and is day-to-day with a sore hip flexor.
The Red Wings have 13 power-play goals in their past 13 games, 10 of them on the road.
Mark Olver scored on a breakaway to tie it at 11:36.
But, Nyquist responded 13 seconds later with his second goal in 12 games this season. He intercepted a pass by Matt Duchene in the offensive zone, went to the net and made a nice move to tuck the puck just inside the post at 11:49 for an unassisted tally.
The second period was scoreless, but the Red Wings had a couple of good chances. Nyquist and Jakub Kindl each rattled a shot off the post.

Best Excuse Note Ever
I'm a in awe of a fifth grade student in Minneapolis. He by far has the best excuse note in the history of elementary students ever. Last Friday, President Obama was in Minneapolis for several campaign appearances. One of the stops included meeting workers at a local Honeywell factory.
An employee of the factory Ryan Sullivan brought his son Tyler to work with him to meet the President. It just happened to be on a school day, so Tyler was able to go back to class later on that day with the best excuse note ever. President Obama wrote on official Presidential stationery, and said quote: "Mr. Ackerman, Please excuse Tyler…He was with me!"
I'm super jealous and would've loved to met the President while he was in Central Minnesota.

Rashid v. Asian Community Care Services Ltd, Court of Appeal - United Kingdom Employment Appeal Tribunal, November 16, 2000, [2000] EAT 480_99_1611
|Issuing Organization:
|United Kingdom Employment Appeal Tribunal
|Rashid v. Asian Community Care Services Ltd
|Resolution Date:
|November 16, 2000
Copyright 2000Appeal No. EAT/480/99 EMPLOYMENT APPEAL TRIBUNAL58 VICTORIA EMBANKMENT, LONDON EC4Y 0DS At the Tribunal On 16 November 2000 BeforeTHE HONOURABLE MR JUSTICE BELLMR K EDMONDSON JPMISS C HOLROYD MRS M RASHID APPELLANT ASIAN COMMUNITY CARE SERVICES LTD RESPONDENTS Transcript of Proceedings JUDGMENT EAT/480/99 APPEARANCES EAT/480/99- 5 - MR JUSTICE BELL: This is an appeal by the applicant Mrs Mehjabeen Rashid against the decision of the Employment Tribunal held at London (North) on 1st and 2nd February 1999. The decision was sent to the parties and entered in the Register on 8th February 1999. The decision was to the effect that the complaint of the applicant, now appellant, of sex discrimination failed. 1. There is no real issue about the circumstances of the appellant's employment by the respondent. The real issue is about when and in what circumstances her employment ended. 2. The facts found by the Employment Tribunal and its conclusions are set out with admirable clarity in its extended reasons for its decision. [Paragraph 2] The respondent is a small voluntary organisation providing care and other services to elderly and disabled Asian people. It depends upon short-term contract funding from local authorities, health authorities and private trusts. The tribunal accepted the evidence Mr M Jeewa, its director, that staff were employed upon short-term temporary contracts because of the uncertainty of renewal of funding. [Paragraph 3] Mrs Rashid, who must have been then aged about 30, commenced employment as a Community Care Assistant on 17th March 1997. She was given a contract dated 21st March 1997 expressing her position as temporary for a period of up to three months commencing week 17th March 1997. The contract was expressed to be terminable by one week's notice from either side. [Paragraph 4] The tribunal heard evidence that the respondent was a small organisation and that its paperwork was not always up to date. When the first three month contract expired on 16th June 1997 it was not immediately replaced with a new written contract. Mrs Rashid was promoted to the position of temporary part-time Co-ordinator working on the Elders Project with effect from 30th June 1997. She was given another temporary contract for that post. The document was undated but stated that the position was temporary and part-time for a period of up to three months commencing on 30th June 1997. Mrs Rashid worked on when the three month temporary contract expired on 29th September 1997, although no written contract of employment was issued. [Paragraph 5] In June or July 1997 Mrs Rashid had discovered that she was pregnant. She had a good relationship with Mr Jeewa, and her account was that she had a meeting with him in November 1997 to tell him that she was pregnant and to make arrangements for maternity leave. There was a conflict of evidence because Mr Jeewa said that no such meeting took place. There was no corroborative evidence one way or another and the tribunal found on the balance of probabilities that Mrs Rashid had not proved that a meeting took place in November 1997 as she said. Mr Jeewa went to Burma on 11th November and was away for the rest of the year. [Paragraph 6] On 20th January 1998 Mrs Rashid presented a written complaint about a fellow employee, but that does not appear to have played any part in what happened thereafter. [Paragraph 7] By a letter dated 26th January 1998 from Mrs Rashid to Mr Jeewa, Mrs Rashid said: ``I write to inform you of my intention to leave for maternity, my last day in service being Wednesday 11 February 1998.It is my intention to return to work if you would so kindly accept me back. I would estimate my time off to be approximately six months if this is suitable to you.'' [Paragraph 8] By a letter which the tribunal described as erroneously dated 4th January but intended to be dated 4th February 1998, Mrs Rashid again wrote to the respondent. She said: ``I intend to come back to work after maternity leave in October 1998 upon verbal agreement with Mr Jeewa. I would like this agreement in writing within the next five days.'' [Paragraph 9] Mr Jeewa told the tribunal that there had been no verbal agreement and that he had indicated to Mrs Rashid that if subsequent vacancies arose within the respondent she was welcome to apply for them. [Paragraph 10] Mrs Rashid's last day of service with the respondent was 11th February 1998...

Monday is the tenth day of the David J. Paul homicide trial and the seventh day set aside for evidence presentation and testimony.
Paul is facing murder and manslaughter charges in connection with the death of four-month old Rian Orr in August 2010. Orr was the biological daughter of his then-girlfriend Jaki Orr. But by most accounts, the then 22-year old Paul cared for the baby as it was his own. In some interviews with investigators, Paul even refers to Rian Orr as his child even though it was conceived by one of Paul's friends before Paul got back together with Jaki Orr.
On the ninth day of the trial on Friday, Dr. Naomi Sugar, a pediatrician at Harborview Medical Center and Seattle Children's Hospital, testified for roughly five hours from her home by videoconference. It was possibly the first time that testimony was taken in such a way in a criminal proceeding according to Superior Court Judge Philip Pallenberg. But it was fraught with technical issues. On occasion, Doctor Sugar could not hear questions or objections to questions because she heard only what the webcam microphone picked up. Her audio was not tied into the in-court audio recording system.
"Her prognosis was grave," said Dr. Sugar after the baby had arrived at Harborview.
Dr. Sugar, who specializes in child abuse pediatrics, was called in as a member of the Suspected Child Abuse and Neglect or SCAN team just after the baby arrived at Harborview. Doctor Sugar reported signs of a possible earlier fracture to Rian's right femur which she referred as a CML or classic metaphyseal lesion, two earlier rib fractures, somewhat recent chest bruising, recent hemmorghing inside the skull case with the brain, and brain swelling.
I also concluded that with number of findings that we had – the head injury, the bruises, the healing rib fractures, and the CML – that the findings were very highly concerning for child abuse. And I had diagnosis at that point of inflicted injury or child abuse"
As for the baby's brain injury, she reported that it could have been the result of shaking or the baby being thrown onto a soft surface like a bed. She reported that a brain of baby is more gelatanous than perhaps an older brain. But she testified that the injury wasn't exclusively the result of Shaken Baby Syndrome, a now-unused term that has been determined as not the only way to cause such injuries.
Here's Doctor Sugar under cross examination by public defender Eric Hedland.
"Can we agree that a three-foot drop on a linoleum floor without (an) external head injury could not have caused the injury that Rian suffered here?" asked Hedland.
"We can," answered Dr. Sugar.
"Any question about that?"
"There's not any question in my mind."
The prosecution hopes to rest their case as soon as tomorrow. Then the defense will have an opportunity to present their case.
Original story:
The picture to the right is what jurors and attorneys saw on Friday instead of a witness sitting in the witness box.
Dr. Naomi Sugar of Harborview Medical Center and Seattle Children's Hospital testified from her home office in the David J. Paul homicide trial in Juneau Superior Court.
It may be the first time that a witness testified remotely to the Dimond Courthouse with video conference technology, according to Judge Philip Pallenberg. He read a relatively new court rule to Dr. Sugar regarding her review of exhibits and other documents at her home office.
Dr. Naomi Sugar is a consulting physician in the relatively new specialty of child abuse pediatrics and her testimony was crucial in the Paul trial. But a shifting trial schedule and Dr. Sugar's own busy work schedule prompted the videoconference alternative instead of flying her to Juneau at the expense of additional money and possible delays.
The top image on the screen is Dr. Sugar while the bottom image is a reverse angle of the courtroom that is being viewed by her.
While the testimony by video conference certainly saved on travel time and expense, there were some kinks in the technology that still need to be worked out.
The witness, lawyers, and judge occasionally talked over each other because of the delay caused by internet lag. There was also the issue of the courtroom microphones and the soundsystem not connected up to the webcam. Public defender Eric Hedland became frustrated because he had to shout from his table halfway across the courtroom or into the PA system just so that Dr. Sugar could hear his questions. She could only hear him through the webcam microphone.
While this may be the first time that a witness testified by videoconference, it's not the first time that Dimond Courthouse staff have experimented with the technology. Judges, who sometimes preside over cases from other locations by telephone, have also been videoconferenced into Juneau courtrooms for other short hearings.

One of the great attractions of the half-day fishing experience is an angler never knows what he or she will catch.
They could catch a world-record fish, or, as in the case of a recent haul on the Daily Double, an angler can land a remarkable shark that wondered into San Diego waters from the Alaskan coast.
Capt. Fred Huber of the Daily Double reports that a 38-inch spiny dogfish shark caught and released earlier this month by angler Garrett Eastman of Imperial Beach was a tagged fish that was caught and marked on July 20, 2010 in Yakutsk Bay in the Gulf of Alaska.
"According to our boat GPS, that shark swam 1,847 nautical miles to get caught here," Huber said of the wandering spiny dogfish, a shark that can reach as long as five feet.
Huber said he and his crewmen took care of the shark by keeping it alive in the boat's bait tank overnight.
"We were hoping to hear from a biologist, but when we didn't, we let it go the next day," Huber said.
Huber said spiny dogfish sharks are sleek and powerful and can cover vast distances. He said one was tagged by researchers off Washington and re-captured off Japan after being tagged and free for seven years. The fish also is known as spurdog, mud shark and piked dogfish. It is listed as vulnerable globally and critically endangered in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean, where the European market for it led to overfishing. It's been estimated that the stock of the spiny dogfish, despite the fact it can live to 40 years and more, has declined by 95 percent off Europe due to overfishing by commercial boats. They are not listed as endangered or threatened in West Coast waters.
As good a year as it's been for offshore fishing, it's been nearly the opposite nearshore. Water conditions just never heated up enough inshore, Huber said. He said calico bass fishing was sub-par due to what he perceived as a very short spawning period this year.
Huber said the Daily Double anglers were fishing for sculpin on the day Eastman hooked the shark. He said they were fishing in 135 feet of water, and Eastman and other anglers were using 4-ounce sinkers and hooks baited with strips of squid. Like most of the fish that day, the tagged shark was caught on a rental rod.
For information about half-day fishing trips, call the Daily Double at Point Loma Sportfishing at (619) 223-1627.
Turning offshore, Capt. Buzz Brizendine reports that the fleet's summer of fun has morphed into a fall fishing frenzy that shows no signs of backing off. The season began in earnest in June when offshore sport boats began getting bluefin and yellowtail. That went straight to dorado, and now yellowfin tuna are showing.
"The thing that impressed me over the weekend is that we had some challenging weather (wind and chop) on Sunday, but every boat out there put together a nice day of fishing," Brizendine said. "And it was spread out. There weren't a lot of boats in one area. To me, that speaks volumes for the potential we have for good fishing through the fall."
Brizendine said he has 1 ½-day voyages planned every other day through October. Call Fisherman's Landing at (619) 221-8500.

OJAI — A first-time doubles pairing led Ilana Oleynik to her first girls 18-under final at the 114th Ojai Valley tennis tournament.
Oleynik, a Malibu junior, and Canyon Crest Academy of San Diego's Otilia Popa delivered one of the most dominant performances in the division Friday with a 6-0, 6-0 semifinal victory over Tesoro's Justine Huang and Layla Rodriguez, who reached the Southern Section doubles quarterfinals in November.
Oleynik and Popa faced only one break point in six combined service games — which Popa saved with a 1-0 lead in the second set — with Huang and Rodriguez managing only three additional game points on their serves.
"Obviously, Otilia was volleying well and my backhand was working, so I felt really good about how we played," Oleynik said.
"Obviously, there's going to be more pressure (today) since it's the finals, but I think if we play like this, we have a good chance to win. Our goal was to get to Libbey Park, now I want to get that trophy."
Oleynik and Popa will face Palos Verdes' Riley Morgan and Nicole Scotten — also quarterfinalists in the Southern Section tournament — at 2 p.m. today at Libbey Park.

The Scouting Report
On July 7, the first-place Red Sox invade Angel Stadium. Though the East Coast club's high-scoring offense may be daunting, the Angels can defend their home turf with some firepower of their own. Through the first three months of the season, Los Angeles has planted itself amongst baseball's top teams in slugging percentage, batting average, and runs scored. That knack for crossing home plate was never more apparent than during a June 25 outburst against the Detroit Tigers, where the Angels scored a season-high 14 runs.

Eurocopter EC225 Super Pumas manufactured next year will feature a series of upgrades in avionics, search-and-rescue (SAR) equipment and passenger comfort that will come standard in the offshore version of the medium twin.
Thierry Mauvais, Eurocopter's oil and gas marketing director, told AIN, "Some oil companies advertise to their employees the level of comfort their helicopter operators provide"–good reason to invest in developing better passenger seat designs, he noted. The EC225's new seats will thus offer better back support and, thanks to a cushioned section behind the nape of the neck, a more comfortable neck position for a passenger wearing a survival suit, Mauvais said.
Mickael Melaye, another marketing specialist, said new foams have better elasticity and wear resistance. In addition, the designers have endeavored to provide more obstacle-free legroom. The pilots' seats are being improved in terms of cushion comfort and durability.
In the cockpit, the 2011 EC225 will be equipped with an ADS-B transponder and the traffic collision avoidance system (Tcas 2) will be coupled with the autopilot. The latter will feature a groundspeed mode (see AIN, June 2010).
As Eurocopter enhances the standard level of equipment in the EC225, the helicopter gets closer to meeting the requirements for search-and-rescue operations. The 2011 iteration will thus be easily reconfigurable into a "light SAR" version, boosting the fleet's flexibility, said Mauvais.
For example, while the new EC225 won't have a 360-degree radar, with groundspeed mode the autopilot is similar in functionality to a dedicated SAR system. Technicians will just have to install a hoist, infrared camera and searchlight for the light SAR role, an investment of only a few hours. Even the new flight simulators will have dual-passenger transport/SAR capability.
Most of the 2011 upgrades are retrofittable to in-service EC225s. Installation time depends on the existing wiring–the older the aircraft, the less existing wiring.

Contained Places
Ontario County is a county located in the U.S. state of New York. As of the 2010 census, the population was 107,931. The county seat is Canandaigua.
Ontario County is part of the Rochester, NY Metropolitan Statistical Area.
In 2006, Progressive Farmer rated Ontario County as the "Best Place to Live" in the U.S., for its "great schools, low crime, excellent health care" and its proximity to Rochester.
When counties were established in New York State in 1683, the present Ontario County was part of Albany County. This was an enormous county, including the northern part of New York State as well as all of the present State of Vermont and, in theory, extending westward to the Pacific Ocean. This county was reduced in size on July 3, 1766 by the creation of Cumberland County, and further on March 16, 1770 by the creation of Gloucester County, both containing territory now in Vermont.
On March 12, 1772, what was left of Albany County was split into three parts, one remaining under the name Albany County. One of the other pieces, Tryon County, contained the western portion (and thus, since no western boundary was specified, theoretically still extended west to the Pacific). The eastern boundary of Tryon County was approximately five miles west of the present city of Schenectady, cutting through the Mohawk River valley. The county included the western part of the Adirondack Mountains and the area west of the West Branch of the Delaware River. The area then designated as Tryon County was later organized as 37 counties of New York State. The county was named for William Tryon, colonial governor of New York.
In the years shortly before 1776, most of the Loyalists in Tryon County fled to Canada, as tensions and physical conflicts were rising in central New York. In 1784, following the peace treaty that ended the American Revolutionary War, the name of Tryon County was changed to honor the Continental general, Richard Montgomery. He had captured several places in Canada and died trying to capture the city of Quebec. It replaced the name of the hated British governor. Seth Reed, a Colonel in the Battle of Bunker Hill, moved here with his family as a pioneer between 1787 and 1795. see also Geneva (town), New York
Land-hungry settlers from New England swept into upstate and western New York after the Revolution, as nearly five million acres of new lands were available for purchase since the Iroquois had been forced to cede most of their territories to the United States. Four tribes had allied with the British and were mostly resettled in Canada: the Mohawk, Onondaga, and Seneca.
In 1789, Ontario County was split off from Montgomery. The territory first organized as Ontario County was much larger than at present and lay along the shore of Lake Ontario. As the area was settled, new counties were organized. At first it included what are currently twelve other counties and parts of two more: Allegany, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Erie, Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Niagara, Orleans, Steuben, Wyoming, and Yates counties, and parts of Schuyler and Wayne counties.
In 1796, Ontario County was divided and Steuben County was organized.
In 1802, Ontario County was reduced when Genesee County was split off. The new county was originally very large, including the present Allegany, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Erie, Niagara, Orleans and Wyoming Counties and parts of Livingston and Monroe counties.
In 1821, portions of Genesee County were combined with portions of Ontario County to create Livingston and Monroe counties.
In 1823, a portion of Seneca County was combined with a portion of Ontario County to create Wayne County. The same year, a portion of Steuben County was combined with a portion of Ontario County to create Yates County.

text: Understand this that, every custom rom we install has its own KERNEL which is responsible for overclocking the cpu & other stuff. To install custom roms which contains custom kernels we need UNLOCKED BOOTLOADERS. So, Here's a step by step guide to unlock the boot loader for Xperia Neo V (esp. for newbies like me) :- (Note - While Sony does have instructions on their site on how to unlock the boot loader it's incomplete and may cause confusion among newbies like me) So, anyway, download this file first and follow these steps to unlock your boot loader :- 1. First, you should confirm that it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your phone by checking the service menu. In your phone, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu. 2. In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked. 3. On your computer, click Continue at the bottom of this page (click the blue coloured text, dummy... lol ) to start the unlock boot loader process. 4. Read through the information in the pop up window and click Yes, I'm sure, if you are still confident you want to unlock the boot loader. 5.Read through and accept the legal terms. Click I Accept. 6.Enter your name, email address and the first 14 digits (remove the last digit/s) of your phone's IMEI number. Click Submit. You can view the IMEI number by entering *#06# on your phone. 7.The unlock boot loader key is displayed. Write it down and save it for later use. 8. Download and install the latest Android SDK 9.

Place the unzipped file in the usb_driver folder, located in the Android SDK > extras > google folder on your computer. Accept to replace the old android_winusb.inf-file with the new file. If you can't find the usb_driver folder, please install the Google USB Driver Packager using the Android SDK manager. 12. Turn off your phone. Insert your phone's USB cable into your computer. And, now keep your menu button pressed on your phone and insert the USB cable into your phone. Your phone's LED should glow "BLUE" which means that your phone is now in fastboot mode. 13. Now, The Computer will say "Installing Device" and after a few mins/secs, it will say that the install failed. Now, extract the zip file which you downloaded at the start, and then open device manager, navigate to "other devices" and select the fastboot device, and select install driver manually. Now point to the folder that you have just extracted and install the fastboot driver. (Note, you might get a warning from the computer, but just ignore it, it's nothing serious) 14. Go to the fastboot folder, inside the "Unlock Bootloader" folder that you just extracted, and hold Shift+Right Mouse button and select "Open a command window here". 15. Now, Enter "fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version" (Without the quotes), and verify that you get a response back (for example "0.3"). This means your phone is connected properly. 16.

Effects of Bank Consolidation Promotion Policy: Evaluating the Bank Law in 1927 Japan
This paper investigates the impact of bank consolidations promoted by government policy, using data from prewar Japan, when the financial authorities promoted them by dint of the Bank Law in 1927. It finds that the policy-promoted consolidation had a positive effect on the deposit growth, especially during the period of a major financial crisis. On the other hands, it had a negative effect on the profitability, particularly, in case there was no dominant bank among the participants or more than two banks participated in the consolidation. The policy-promoted consolidation in such cases was likely to be accompanied by large organizational cost.

Canadians celebrate WEG decision: "We are thrilled"
The Canadian equestrian community is celebrating the success of its bid to host the 2018 FEI World Equestrian Games, with the organising committee chairman talking of a legacy in the host city that will last for decades.
The Games in Bromont will be the biggest sporting event ever held in Canada.
Equine Canada's chief executive, Eva Havaris, said the Games represented a gift to the country's equestrians that would enhance the industry at all levels.
The FEI Bureau announced the unanimous decision to give the Games to Canada early today, shortly after the start of its two-day meeting in Lausanne, Switzerland.
It will be only the second time the event has been held outside Europe, the first time being in 2010 in Lexington, Kentucky.
"This is an exciting announcement and a great opportunity for equestrian sport, and will make an outstanding economic impact on Bromont, the province of Quebec and the horse industry in Canada," Equine Canada's president, Al Patterson, said.
"On behalf of the Equine Canada Board of Directors and members, I would like to thank the WEG Bid Committee for their tireless work and efforts in raising the funds needed to secure the 2018 bid."
The Games will be centered on the Bromont Olympic Equestrian Park, which is already a world class facility. It currently hosts FEI jumping, dressage, eventing and driving competitions.
The Games will significantly boost the local, provincial and Canadian equestrian communities, as well as the local and provincial economies.
Havaris said: "This is an incredible opportunity for Canadians to watch the best in the world compete right at home.
"Hosting two major Games – 2015 Pan American Games at the Caledon Equestrian Park and 2018 WEG at Bromont – is a gift to Canadian equestrians that will enhance the industry at all levels."
The Bromont Olympic Equestrian Park will be expanded and enhanced so the eight FEI disciplines of jumping, dressage, eventing, para-dressage, reining, driving, endurance and vaulting will have top-notch, world-class competition facilities.
This will leave the already outstanding equestrian venue in Bromont as a legacy to Canadian equestrian sport.
The president of the Bromont Bid Committee, Paul Côté, said: "We are thrilled with the decision from the FEI today.
"We believe that the impact of this event in Bromont in 2018 will be felt for decades to come and will represent a significant time for Canadian equestrians."
WEG 2018 will be the largest single sporting event ever held in Canada, with 4500 accredited participants, from 65 countries, with an estimated 500,000 spectators.

Are we alone in the universe? Pondering upon the vastness of the universe, we'd have to be incredibly self-centered to think we are the only life form in existence. And although we haven't seen proof of our intergalactic brethren, there have been plenty of films and TV shows about their clandestine (and more demonstrative) visits to Earth.
Now we have an entirely new horrific vision about one of those alien visits and the havoc they cause in Dark Skies. Keri Russell and Josh Hamilton star as the married couple whose life becomes derailed by mysterious happenings caused by a disturbing malevolent force…and it isn't a domestic disturbance by any means. This one is imported. Way imported.
To celebrate the release of Dark Skies this weekend, we have compiled a list of some of the best alien abduction stories we've enjoyed over the years. Come reminisce with us to get into the mood for this new, creepy tale about extra-terrestrials…and they're not the good Reese's Pieces-eating kind either!
Perhaps you forgot the alien abduction part of "American Horror Story: Asylum." With all the other stuff going on…a Nazi doing human experimentation, demonic possession, a serial killer…it's easy to see how one could forget that alien abduction was a big part of the story. But yes, indeed, amid all the other madness, Kit's wife, Alma, was stolen away…and that wasn't the only tinkering the greys did. Although we never got a good look at them, alien abduction certainly helped to shape this entertaining season of the upstart "American Horror Story" anthology series.
