Brummie popstrels crowdsource their visual appearance
A pop group that doesn't know what it should look like has asked the Hive Mind™ for help. Bella Diem describe themselves as a "Dreamy Pop Rock 5-piece from Birmingham", and have 339 Twitter followers. YouGov specialises in opinion polls and focus groups, and has got tipsy drinking the New Age internet Kool Aid about the "wisdom …
The Hive Mind™ says....
The Hive Mind™ says, 'Destined to fail'.
If they don't know what they are, and they have no poop svengali to guide them, then how can they make their own musical statement? Give Cowell & Waterman (both great Midland musical experts*) their dues, they know how to make music* that sells. Likewise with the bands of old who developed their own style and because sucessful because of it.
Re: The Hive Mind™ says....
The Hive Mind™ says, "A pop group with 300 twitter followers has an article about them in The Register - and probably about 360,000 other publications".
I also challenge the notion that the 'bands of old' developed their own visual and design styles. It might be hard to hear, but pop groups have been carefully prepared since year one. I could be wrong, but I doubt one of Pink Floyd's members designed the prism album cover, and I doubt that on of the Beatles planned and took the photo of them crossing the street. And I doubt that the band members interviewed and hired their own designers.
In this case, at least, one could argue that the band is doing at least -that- much - just from a rather wider and undoubtedly shallower talent pool.
Bands, alas, were not comprised of miraculous multimedia Rennaisance men just because theyy were popular when you were in your prime.
Consulting The Hive Mind™ may or may not yield worthwhile branding, and the band's music may or may not justify its ambition, but their gambit doesn't itself imply failure - and it has obviously already succeeded in expanding their audience. I suspect they'll have more then 300 followers by the end of the week.
...depending on their natural appearance of course.
As you said, that city produced Ozzy Osbourne and I definitely don't want to see the likes of him in the Brummie-buff.
Re: Naked?
I'd say probably not, this is no 'Girls Aloud' clone.
A quick look on google has shown that the 5 piece, is 3 guys and 2 girls, none of which are what I would call 'attractive'. We are all entitled to our own opinions of course.
"... independent musicians..."
You mean they're not the plastic product of some svengali and this isn't a cynical PR exercise?
I am gobsmacked!
"what you think we should look like as a band, in terms of artwork, logo and fashion."
As Google's new AI recently discovered, the hive mind says... cats. Lots of cats.
So easy !

U.S. civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. waves to supporters from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on Aug. 28, 1963, in Washington, D.C., during his "I Have a Dream" speech, which highlighted the March on Washington. The speech has been credited with mobilizing supporters of desegregation, and it prompted the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Martin Luther King was assassinated on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tenn. James Earl Ray confessed to shooting King and was sentenced to 99 years in prison.

Hello, I was here for a fridge problem about 4 months ago, and I'm back for a problem with range/oven. I'm glad I know a place to come to My GE range/oven (J S900BOK BB) started to beep and display code "F-7 56". I did some research and it seems like a common problem and I wanted to fix it myself. But I can't figure out how to remove the keypanel The top of the range looks like this. (I removed the switch caps for turning range on/off) I removed the 5 screws underneath. But I still can't remove the keypanel (or the whole part around keypanel). I read some range needs to be pulled out about 2 inches to remove other screws there, but I didn't find any that seems like it. I see more screws when I look directly from the bottom, but these are too far from the keypanel to be holding the keypanel. It will be a big help if someone could explain me how I can remove the keypanel. |

Thank you!!! I opened it. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting the key panel but it didn't help. So, I just unhooked the key panel for now. Now, I need to think if its worth fixing since it's 5 years old and I rarely use oven. Once a year at most. I might just leave it disconnected and only use the range. Thank you again |

Another good web slinging game!!!
Strengths: Good if you're a real Spider-Man fan. Otherwise, you might get bored at it.
Weakness: Spider-Man 2's only downside is there isn't to much variety in the game and you basically did the same thing in each level. Other than that, Spider-Man 2 for the GBA is solid throughout.
Spider-Man 2 is still a fun game that fans of the web-head will enjoy. The game is presented mostly in a side scrolling view with typical 2-D GBA graphics fare. The story is told by way of a combination of stills from the blockbuster film, some slickly 3-D rendered artwork, and text dialog, and presents the story well while incorporating new villains into the mix. But overall the game is fun and...

Quakes defender Justin Morrow isn't most proud of his professional career or his achievements on the pitch.
In his eyes, what is his greatest accomplishment?
It's plain and simple: "I finished school."
With all of the hype around USMNT captain Clint Dempsey's return to MLS, our friends over at Buzzfeed decided to feature the 14 reasons why it's a great time to be a soccer fan in the U.S.
And you know what? Of all 14 reasons, Quakes were featured in two.
Anyone remember Chavez's giggle fest when he danced around LA's AJ DeLaGarza?
And you couldn't have forgotten Lenny's recent 'Twerk it' goal celebration:
It's a great time to be a Quakes fan.
After all this bobblehead and cutout talk this week, we are excited to announce that the real Chris Wondolowski will be joining Jim Kozimor for Yahoo! Sports Talk Live tonight.
Clear your Friday night plans or at least set those DVRs. Tune in to CSN Bay Area at 8 p.m. PT.
Wondo and Lil' Wondo had some face time with Bay Area baseball greats, Vida Blue and Bill Laskey, earlier today.
The on-air personalities were in the Comcast SportsNet studios while Wondo made a pitstop before he headed to his #WheresWondo location in the South Bay.
While you don't win anything for finding the Wondo cutout on tv, you can still watch the duo today on CSN Bay Area for Yahoo! Sports Talk Live with Jim Kozimor at 5 p.m. PT.
Question: have you tried Wondo-ing today?
Thanks to this week's #WheresWondo contest, we have a new move for all of our fans to try.
The Wondo. Wondo-ing. Kinda like Tebowing but better.
Stay tuned for tomorrow's #WheresWondo clue for a chance to try out Wondo-ing yourself.
In the meantime, check out all of our entries so far. They're pretty hysterical.

Sporting Kansas City got all cute-like before the big match on Sunday; trying to ruffle our feathers a bit before they come into town.
Too bad it didn't work.
Easy math, people. 2 > 1. Also translated to... two MLS Cups are greater than one MLS Cup.
See ya on Sunday, Sporting. Maybe we'll save a Wondo Bobblehead for you.
You can be the lucky winner of a one-of-kind autographed USMNT Wondolowski jersey, with an extra W to boot.
No, you aren't dreaming.
This Monday to Friday, we're running a special contest on SJEarthquakes.com in honor of Wondo's upcoming Bobblehead Party when the Quakes face Sporting KC on Sunday.
Check SJEarthquakes.com and @SJEarthquakes on Twitter for clues daily. Wondo and Lil' Wondo's cutout will be hiding out in various areas around the Bay. Once you find them, snap a photo. Share the photo on Instagram/ Twitter with the hashtag #WheresWondo.
Cha-ching. You are automatically entered to win.
Make sure to play daily. The more times you find Wondo & Lil' Wondo = more entries in your name to win big.
Not only are you eligible to win the USMNT Wondowlowski jersey, but each day we're giving out prizes to our daily hunters. One photo of the day with #WheresWondo will win two tickets to Sunday's match vs. Sporting Kansas City.
So, what are you waiting for? Unleash your bobble and find Wondo.
Check out www.sjearthquakes.com/whereswondo for full details.
U.S. Soccer invited 64 elite players from across the country to participate in the National Combine, designed to build the U-18 Men's National Team pool.
Two current Earthquakes academy players were in the mix, including goalkeeper JT Marcinkowski from Alamo, Calif. and forward Amir Bashti from Cupertino, Calif. Marcinkowski, the Quakes U-16 Academy keeper, recently competed with the squad abroad in the Caspian Cup. Bashti, a midfielder also on the Quakes' U-16 Academy team, has been ranked nationally by Topdrawersoccer.com and led the team to the playoffs earlier this Summer.
The two will travel to Portland for this year's National Combine at Nike's World Headquarters. This five day camp, running from Aug. 9-13, brings the country's elite 15 to 17 year old players together. The combine is an opportunity for the nation's top palyers to be evaluated by National Team staff and scouts from across the country.
Full roster:

2014 DRAFT DAY PRIMERWhen: The 2014 draft will be held May 8-10. The first round will be hled the evening of Thursday, May 8th starting at 8PM ET, with the second and third rounds sceduled for the 9th (6 PM ET) and rounds 4-7 on the 10th (Noon ET).
coverage: NFL Network and ESPN Where two teams with the same records and their combined opponents have the same winning percentage, divisional or conference tie-breakers arer applied whenever applicable. Any ties that still exist are broken by a coin flip. In subsequent rounds, the team with the highest pick in the previous round in each won-lost grouping drops to the bottom of that group, while all other teams move up one place. Compensatory picks are awarded based on a formula the primary factor of which is a team's NET losses of unrestricted free agency the previous year. These picks are added on at the end of the assigned round. As part of the CBA there must be a minimum of 255 players picked at each draft. If the total number of regular plus compensatory picks is less than 255 additional compensatory picks will be awarded to the teams with the highest picks in the first round starting with the team with the very first selection until the 255 number is reached. Assignment of comp picks usually is announced a few weeks before the draft. Teams have 10 minutes to make their picks in the first round; 7 in the second; and 5 in subsequent rounds. A team going over the time limit may make their pick at any time after the clock runs out, but the team(s) with the succeeding pick(s) may make their picks as their turn indicates.

Pros: The green light is close to optimal for the human eye to pick up. Also, in my profession, we deal with a large number of images that are pink-red-purple, so the green light is an ideal contrasting color. Regarding glossy LCD screens, this light is among the best that I have tried: it works well on an older model Samsung monitor at work though less so on my home Samsung TV (might be the angle). Brightness is very good. The slide navigator works well and overall ergonomics are excellent. It is light weight compared to a previous pointer I had. Ergonomics are very good. Cons: I dont think this needs a carrying case: this increases the size such that it would only be useful in a suitcase or baggage to protect from some degree of crush. The exterior is also plastic. Other Thoughts: I would have opted for no case, and make the exterior of the device aluminum with a price bump of $25. Metal exteriors are uncommon these days though. It feels cheap, but I do not think that this adversely affects durability or function of this device. The light is adequately bright; brighter might have been nicer but I think this would decrease battery life. A very bright pointer can be annoying and potentially dangerous I suppose. I would definitely buy this again and recommend to other people willing to pay more for a nice pointer. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Kensington Wireless Presenter Pro Works greatPros: Great range. Long battery life. Works perfect. Cons: None Other Thoughts: Bought this over a year ago to use in a large church auditorium. The receiver is probably 50 feet from the Kensington most of the time and it never misses a beat in scrolling through PowerPoint slides. Laser works great as well. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Excellent tool for presentationsPros: -Easy to use Cons: If I had to say one it would be the range but..... Other Thoughts: This was bought for the presenters at our church. We have a wide variety of users from the tech savvy to the newbie and all have used it with no problem. No complaints, except that the first day we plugged the usb receiver into the back of our computer and it did not work. Now keep in mind this is about 75 or 100 feet away from the stage behind the a/v booth wall under a table. We moved it to one of the usb slots on the front of the computer and it has been working fine ever since. It is a quality comfortable product that you do not have to look at more than once to figure out how to use. Buy this product. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Surprisingly, the best price and best value is at the bottom of the customer's priority list. See what's at the top.
Why does a customer buy from one vendor rather than another? According to research recently conducted by The Rain Group (detailed report here), customers tend to buy from sellers who are superlative at the following tasks:
If customers could diagnose their own problems and come up with workable solutions on their own, they would do so. The reason that they're turning to you and your firm is that they're stuck and need your help. Therefore, you must be able to bring something new to the table.
Customers absolutely do NOT want you to sell them something, even something that's wonderful. They want you to work with them to achieve a mutual goal, by being responsive to the customer's concerns and ways of doing business. Ideally, customers want you to become integral to their success.
Customers will not buy from you if you can't persuade them that you, your firm, and your firms offerings will truly achieve the promised results. It is nearly impossible to persuade a customer to believe in these things unless you yourself believe in them. You must make your confidence contagious.
When they're describing themselves and their needs, customers sense immediately when somebody is just waiting for a break in the conversation in order to launch into a sales pitch. In order to really listen, you must suppress your own inner-voice and forget your goals. It's about the customer, not about you.
It's not enough to "connect the dots" between customer needs and your company's offering. You must also connect with the individuals who will be affected by your offering, and understand how buying from you will satisfy their personal needs, like career advancement and job security.
Here's where many sellers fall flat. Customers know that every business decision entails risk but they also want your help to minimize that risk. They want to know what could go wrong and what has gone wrong in similar situations, and what steps you're taking to make sure these problems won't recur.
Solution selling is definitely not dead. Customers want and expect you to have the basic selling skill of defining and proposing a workable solution. What's different now though is that the ability to do this is the "price of entry" and not enough, by itself, to win in a competitive sales situation.
Customers hate it when sellers dance around issues like price, discounts, availability, total cost, add-on options, and so forth. They want you to be able to tell them, in plain and simple language, what's involved in a purchase and how that purchase will take place. No surprises. No last minute upsells.
Ultimately, every selling situation involves making a connection between two individuals who like and trust each other. As a great sales guru once said: "All things being equal, most people would rather buy from somebody they like... and that's true even when all things aren't equal."
And here, finally, at the No. 10 spot (below everything else) comes the price and how that price compares to similar offerings. Unless you can prove that buying from you is the right business decision for the customer, the customer can and should buy elsewhere.

6 Amazing Remedies Sitting in Your Spice RackYour kitchen counter might already hold the cure for what ails you.
By Nicole Frehsée

Since time immemorial, humans have used spices to better their food—and their bodies. Our ancestors knew which spices would settle an upset stomach, relieve inflammation, and more. Now a spate of studies has finally proved that whether you've got achy muscles, a cold that just won't quit, or a case of the blues, reaching for a natural healer may be just what the doctor ordered.

BONAIRE, Ga. -- To watch Mathew Majka move in his military uniform, you would think he were the one out on a mission.
But as soon as Mathew makes it inside the car, the real troops move into action.
In one day, an army of volunteers will turn Mathew's room into a magical escape, creating the little boy's dream, as well as Holly Ranney's.
Ranney is the founder of Sunshine on a Ranney Day, a charity that hopes to remodel rooms for children with chronic or terminal illnesses -- children like Mathew, who has tumors on his brain and spine. He must spend much more time indoors than he would like.
RELATED | Sunshine on a Ranney Day feels for loss on Mathew Majka
Other Sunshine on a Ranney Day Projects: -Tripp Halstead's family introduced to new home -Emily Bowman returns home after 19 weeks in hospital FULL COVERAGE | Sunshine on a Ranney Day
"He gets discouraged," Mathew's father Michael says. "He wants to be out with his friends, running around, riding his bike. He can't do that."
But Mathew can get a sneak peek into something else he loves -- the Air Force. After a tour of Warner Robins Air Force Base, he takes his very first flight.
With Mathew's head in the clouds, the volunteers stay grounded, painting walls, trim, doors and ledges, solid colors and camo. The theme through it all is military aviation.
From big bold decorations to a small simple frame, Michael Majka takes it all in. Only one word comes to mind: overwhelmed.
It's a feeling the single father is used to. Mathew was diagnosed two years ago. Since then, it's been a series of radiation and chemo.
"I'm helpless because I can't fix it," Michael says. "Daddy can't fix this one."
Mathew's bedroom is Sunshine on a Ranney Day's first project. To make sure it's not the last, the organization needs donations -- time, supplies, money. And it also needs families in need of a little sunshine on a rainy day.
With the final frenzy in full gear, the volunteer army prepares to look back on their battlefield. In eight hours, the troops completely transformed Mathew's bedroom.
When Mathew sees the spoils of the war he, like his father, is left with only one word: "Whoa! Just whoa!"
Just as Ranney hoped, the room proves cool enough to lure friends in when Mathew can't go out. As for her dream, her tears say as much as her words.
"Everybody just working together and the military guys and to see Mathew's face -- it's awesome," Ranney said.

I found this bra extremely comfortable to wear and easy to unclip when nursing. The cups were much bigger and overall felt more padded than expected, which made the bra slightly less attractive when on, but I was looking for comfort more than anything, so this did the job. Bought the black version too, which looked nicer on.
Posted by Unknown on 9th Feb 2014
It's a really nice looking bra but it made me sit very pointy, which I don't like in a bra. The moulding did not suit me in this one unfortunately. I was hoping for it to be fantastic. Not for me.
I'm so sorry to hear that, this has been a really popular style. It's not as structurally fitting as our other styles, but it's great for under tighter clothes to now show seams.
Posted by Jolene on 29th Jan 2014
Sizing is great, very comfortable and you still feel nice wearing them.

Great bra and I actually feel sexy in this bra and not depressed like with other nursing bras!
I ordered a cup size down but it was still too big. I'm hoping it fits once my milk comes in.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

New router
I just installed a new router, Actiontec from Verizon, and I had to change the user name and password. Now I can't connect. My Nexus 7 sees my router but when it asks for the password I put in the new router password and Nexus tells me authentication problem. When I enable "show password" on Nexus nothing shows so I'm not sure what password it is asking for. I had no problems connecting with the old router. I called Google support and was told I had to call Verizon. I called Verizon and was told I have to call Google support.
Re: New router
Crazy question but are u entering the password as shown on router or pamphlet that came with it? Most router passwords are case sensitive. Reboot router, "forget network" for router, reboot nexus 7 and try again. Enter password exactly as shown. Let us know how it goes

Re: New router
I am entering the new router password, the one I devised not the pamphlet one. I did what you said reboot etc. but when I "forget" the network, it simply comes back again. It says "secured with WPA/WPA2" and when I select it it say the signal is excellent and the security if WPA/WPA2PSK so I enter the correct password and after authenticating for about a minute it says "authentication problem". I could go in and give the router a new user name and new password and try again. What do you think?
Re: New router
Why did you change the password if I may ask? Did you have to go on Verizon's website to register or change the password on the router? Where did you change the password at? Did you follow the instructions on the pamphlet carefully to change the user name and password to the router? Did you type the password in on the Nexus EXACTLY how it was put in the password entry box when you changed it? Sometimes we capitalize or hit wrong keys by accident. Try the old password that came with it and see if the change even was successful

Re: New router
The password is case sensitive and I am inputting it correctly. My old router, 9 years old, was acting up so Verizon sent me another one. I changed the user name and password on Tuesday and I went to Verizon's site dedicated to routers to do so. I have tried the old password and just about anything I could think of. I even tried the WEP key. I also changed the wireless network from WEP to WPA2 as advised on the set-up page. The only other thing connected to the router is the PC and it's OK. The old router was also an Actiontec from Verizon.
Re: New router
Change the security settings back to WEP and see what happens.

Re: New router
PC is connected wired via ethernet. OK so I changed the security back to WEP and now instead of "authentication problem" it says "saved, secured with WEP" but I still cannot connect to the internet. I have to go to work. Maybe it will magically connect while I'm gone....or not. Thank you so much for your help. I'll be back tomorrow so if you think of anything else I can try please let me know.
Re: New router
There are so many variables possible in this problem that have nothing to do with the nexus 7.
For instance, there would be a user name and account password for accessing your internet provider account, a modem user name and password, a router user name and password, and a wpa/wpa2 password which would be what you use to access your wifi.
if you can login to your router (typically default user is admin and password is blank) then you can change the wifi access password. - 01-25-2013, 06:47 PM #12

Fondly, to be sure.
There are three quick news hits, really: Petit is up with the Giants, Justin Christian is off the disabled list, and Brandon Belt is playing left field for the first time this year.
In reverse order: a) Glad to see Belt in the lineup on a Posey "off day", even if it's in left. By all means necessary; b) I still believe that Christian can contribute to a team and belongs on a 25-man roster, dammit; and, c) I'm still fascinated with Yusmeiro Petit.
I go into more detail on that last point here, but now I can add some current Fresno stats to the Petit profile:
Year | Age | IP | H | HR | BB | SO | |
2012 | 27 | 3.46 | 166.2 | 178 | 14 | 36 | 153 |
That's quite a season in the PCL. He's probably not going to have much of an effect on the rest of the season, depending on how wacky Bruce Bochy wants to get in the late innings, but it'll be nice to watch him on television, at least. And hopefully now that he's on the 40-man roster, he'll be back next season as sweet, sweet depth.
Belt playing left is probably the bigger story, but Petit is my ... well, not white whale. He's more like a whale with a monocle and a handlebar mustache. Probably not meaningful. Could potentially hurt you in a serious way. But fascinating!


text: Peter Kirwan: What's new about The Daily? 03 February 11 Tweet News Corp Peter Kirwan Wired.co.uk Media Specialist Certainly not the 360 degree photographs you can pan and tilt. The carousel of story pages resembles Coverflow on iTunes. If innovative user interfaces are your thing, The Daily will leave you cold. On Twitter, after the launch event, Dave Winer suggested that it was "time for a nap".Before you nod off, however, let's consider what's really interesting about The Daily. Namely, its price. For $1 (60p) a week, or $40 (£25) a year, US-based iPad users are being promised 100 pages of natively-packaged editorial content every day.This price point lays down a marker for both USA Today and The New York Times, both of which give away their iPad apps for free, but may soon start to charge. With its heavy emphasis on features, The Daily also asks questions of magazine and book publishers whose tablet offerings cost more than their print equivalents.Yesterday, Murdoch waded into this unruly thicket of price points, driving signposts into the ground that point the way to mainstream adoption. It was a classic market-making move.On the verge of his 80th birthday, the sight of Murdoch in full flow remains oddly impressive. At yesterday's launch event, Murdoch trumpeted The Daily's pure-play advantages: "No paper, no multi-million dollar presses, no trucks. And we're passing on these savings to the reader, which is why we can offer The Daily for just 14 cents a day."All of this is true, but there's something else he didn't mention: the absence of parallel production lines for print, web and apps at The Daily. At established news organisations, this diminishes the attention paid to digital output and results in costs that always seem to rise. At Wapping in 1986, Murdoch jettisoned a legacy that was holding the newspaper industry back. No doubt he views The Daily in similar terms.The official line is that The Daily is aimed at the "15m Americans who will own an iPad by the end of 2011". Within this group, News Corporation has targeted what Murdoch describes as a "growing segment… that is educated and sophisticated but does not read national newspapers or watch television news".If this makes The Daily sound like a bolt-on addition to the media ecosystem, Murdoch is also dreaming of something much bigger. Away from his script, during an interview on Fox Business News yesterday, his words suggested a bid to promote cannibalisation of print audiences."I really believe that everybody in America who can afford one is going to buy a tablet," said Murdoch. Ultimately, he added, he would like The Daily to overtake the 26m audience attracted by American Idol on News Corporation's Fox network.News Corporation executives may smile at the old man's hyperbole. But the intent is clear. What's more, Murdoch claims that he isn't phased by the prospect of cannibalising print audiences. "Oh, there may be some expensive changeover," he said yesterday. "Net-net I think we will get." In the US, where Murdoch's big newsprint assets -- a high-end business newspaper and a dying east coast tabloid -- remain peripheral in terms of mass consumption, this makes sense. Cannibalisation can work in his favour. Read page 2 12 Read on one page Comments Read more on Media The changing world of information and communication Technology Robots have mastered news writing.

A year ago at this same time, the Bruins and Hotchkiss had similar records and it was Hotchkiss sporting a perfect season mark coming into their game with the Bruins. Cedaredge knocked off the Bulldogs and had a 6-1 record. Cedaredge made the playoffs and had a great season.
The Bulldogs didn't do too badly either.
On Tuesday, April 3, the two WSL foes met in Cedaredge under similar circumstances as last season. This time it was Cedaredge with the perfect record and Hotchkiss used nine innings to win a 6-4 decision to give the Bruins a 6-1 mark.
The Bulldogs are listed third in 3A WSL play as they missed a double-header against Aspen on March 31.
The Skiers, on spring break, could not field a team to play the Bulldogs and opted to reschedule, if that option was available. Hotchkiss' win leaves the Bulldogs at 4-1 with Rifle and Cedaredge tied in league play at 6-1. The only loss to Rifle was an 11-3 setback to Hotchkiss in the second game of a doubleheader on March 24. Hotchkiss' league loss was against Rifle, 2-1, in the first game of that doubleheader.
The Bruins will face Rifle on April 21 in Cedaredge for double-header action beginning at 11 a.m.
Against the Bulldogs, Cedaredge's starting pitcher Drew Beach held Hotchkiss to no runs for the first two innings of play. In the third inning, Hank Edwards reached on an error and scored on Jaime Rodriquez's double to give the Bulldogs a 1-0 lead they would keep until the sixth inning.
Edgar Macias started on the hill for Hotchkiss and kept Cedaredge hitters off balance for much of six innings. Macias fanned all three batters he faced in the third inning and finished the game with 10 strikeouts (12 counting dropped third strikes and throws to first for the out).
This defensive struggle became offensive in the sixth inning with Hotchkiss picking up three runs on five hits, including doubles from Brayden Wilson and Edwards, and a triple by Macias.
Hotchkiss got its bats to working in the bottom of the inning and plated two runs that chased Macias from the mound.
The Bruins tied the game in the bottom of the seventh after Sam and Peter Williamson scored after being walked to lead the inning off.
Devan Rupe led off the top of the ninth for Hotchkiss with a single and Rodriquez, squaring to bunt, pushed a pop up over the head of Sterling Rose who had come in to pitch in the top of the sixth. Both runners scored and the Bulldog defense held to score the 6-4 victory.
Even though it was a loss, Cedaredge coach Randy Brown was optimistic. "I learned today that I have 15 guys who are willing to compete to the end. I appreciate that effort. I also have five seniors with leadership. That's phenomenal."
In continuing, Brown knows his team is not through in 2012. "This game made us better. It wasn't an easy win for Hotchkiss. We'll take our lumps now to make us better later."
Beach the starter for Cedaredge wore down in the sixth inning with Sterling Rose stepping in to take over. Beach went five and two-thirds and gave up 11 hits and four runs. Rose had six strikeouts in his three and a third innings giving up three hits and two runs.
Macias went six and two thirds giving up just four runs. During his stint on the mound, Macias was sharp up to the sixth inning. In the early going,
Macias had his best pitch, a changeup curve, working to his advantage. "I have a lot of confidence and I don't panic," noted Macias. He has been pitching since he was six and showed a strong command of his pitches.
The Bruins are in Aspen this Thursday (April 12) to take on the Skiers in doubleheader action beginning at 1 p.m.
Cedaredge is in Paonia on Monday, April 16 for a 3 p.m. contest between two high-powered teams.
Hotchkiss' next ballgame is set for Saturday, April 14, with game one, of a doubleheader against Gunnison's Cowboys, scheduled for 11 a.m. The second game is set for 1 p.m.

Comparative Genomics and Gene Expression Analysis Identifies BBS9, a New Bardet-Biedl Syndrome Gene The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 77, Issue 6, 1 December 2005, Pages 1021-1033 Darryl Y. Nishimura, Ruth E. Swiderski, Charles C. Searby, Erik M. Berg, Amanda L. Ferguson, Raoul Hennekam, Saul Merin, Richard G. Weleber, Leslie G. Biesecker, Edwin M. Stone and Val C. Sheffield Abstract Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is an autosomal recessive, genetically heterogeneous, pleiotropic human disorder characterized by obesity, retinopathy, polydactyly, renal and cardiac malformations, learning disabilities, and hypogenitalism. Eight BBS genes representing all known mapped loci have been identified. Mutation analysis of the known BBS genes in BBS patients indicate that additional BBS genes exist and/or that unidentified mutations exist in the known genes. To identify new BBS genes, we performed homozygosity mapping of small, consanguineous BBS pedigrees, using moderately dense SNP arrays. A bioinformatics approach combining comparative genomic analysis and gene expression studies of a BBS-knockout mouse model was used to prioritize BBS candidate genes within the newly identified loci for mutation screening. By use of this strategy, parathyroid hormone-responsive gene B1 (B1) was found to be a novel BBS gene (BBS9), supported by the identification of homozygous mutations in BBS patients. The identification of BBS9 illustrates the power of using a combination of comparative genomic analysis, gene expression studies, and homozygosity mapping with SNP arrays in small, consanguineous families for the identification of rare autosomal recessive disorders. We also demonstrate that small, consanguineous families are useful in identifying intragenic deletions. This type of mutation is likely to be underreported because of the difficulty of deletion detection in the heterozygous state by the mutation screening methods that are used in many studies.

Antenatal Presentation of Bardet-Biedl Syndrome May Mimic Meckel Syndrome The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 76, Issue 3, 1 March 2005, Pages 493-504 Houda Karmous-Benailly, Jelena Martinovic, Marie-Claire Gubler, Yoann Sirot, Laure Clech, Catherine Ozilou, Joëlle Augé, Nora Brahimi, Heather Etchevers, Eric Detrait, Chantal Esculpavit, Sophie Audollent, Géraldine Goudefroye, Marie Gonzales, Julia Tantau, Philippe Loget, Madeleine Joubert, Dominique Gaillard, Corinne Jeanne-Pasquier, Anne-Lise Delezoide, Marie-Odile Peter, Ghislaine Plessis, Brigitte Simon-Bouy, Hélène Dollfus, Martine Le Merrer, Arnold Munnich, Férechté Encha-Razavi, Michel Vekemans and Tania Attié-Bitach Abstract Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a multisystemic disorder characterized by postaxial polydactyly, progressive retinal dystrophy, obesity, hypogonadism, renal dysfunction, and learning difficulty. Other manifestations include diabetes mellitus, heart disease, hepatic fibrosis, and neurological features. The condition is genetically heterogeneous, and eight genes (BBS1–BBS8) have been identified to date. A mutation of the BBS1 gene on chromosome 11q13 is observed in 30%–40% of BBS cases. In addition, a complex triallelic inheritance has been established in this disorder—that is, in some families, three mutations at two BBS loci are necessary for the disease to be expressed. The clinical features of BBS that can be observed at birth are polydactyly, kidney anomaly, hepatic fibrosis, and genital and heart malformations. Interestingly, polydactyly, cystic kidneys, and liver anomalies (hepatic fibrosis with bile-duct proliferation) are also observed in Meckel syndrome, along with occipital encephalocele. Therefore, we decided to sequence the eight BBS genes in a series of 13 antenatal cases presenting with cystic kidneys and polydactyly and/or hepatic fibrosis but no encephalocele. These fetuses were mostly diagnosed as having Meckel or "Meckel-like" syndrome. In six cases, we identified a recessive mutation in a BBS gene (three in BBS2, two in BBS4, and one in BBS6). We found a heterozygous BBS6 mutation in three additional cases. No BBS1, BBS3, BBS5, BBS7, or BBS8 mutations were identified in our series. These results suggest that the antenatal presentation of BBS may mimic Meckel syndrome. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (6759 kb) |
Reconstruction of a Functional Human Gene Network, with an Application for Prioritizing Positional Candidate Genes The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 78, Issue 6, 1 June 2006, Pages 1011-1025 Lude Franke, Harm van Bakel, Like Fokkens, Edwin D. de Jong, Michael Egmont-Petersen and Cisca Wijmenga Abstract Most common genetic disorders have a complex inheritance and may result from variants in many genes, each contributing only weak effects to the disease. Pinpointing these disease genes within the myriad of susceptibility loci identified in linkage studies is difficult because these loci may contain hundreds of genes. However, in any disorder, most of the disease genes will be involved in only a few different molecular pathways. If we know something about the relationships between the genes, we can assess whether some genes (which may reside in different loci) functionally interact with each other, indicating a joint basis for the disease etiology. There are various repositories of information on pathway relationships. To consolidate this information, we developed a functional human gene network that integrates information on genes and the functional relationships between genes, based on data from the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, the Biomolecular Interaction Network Database, Reactome, the Human Protein Reference Database, the Gene Ontology database, predicted protein-protein interactions, human yeast two-hybrid interactions, and microarray coexpressions. We applied this network to interrelate positional candidate genes from different disease loci and then tested 96 heritable disorders for which the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man database reported at least three disease genes. Artificial susceptibility loci, each containing 100 genes, were constructed around each disease gene, and we used the network to rank these genes on the basis of their functional interactions. By following up the top five genes per artificial locus, we were able to detect at least one known disease gene in 54% of the loci studied, representing a 2.8-fold increase over random selection. This suggests that our method can significantly reduce the cost and effort of pinpointing true disease genes in analyses of disorders for which numerous loci have been reported but for which most of the genes are unknown.

Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a genetically heterogeneous, pleiotropic human disorder characterized by obesity, retinopathy, polydactyly, renal and cardiac malformations, learning disabilities, and hypogenitalism. Eight BBS loci have been mapped, and seven genes have been identified. BBS3 was previously mapped to chromosome 3 by linkage analysis in a large Israeli Bedouin kindred. The rarity of other families mapping to the BBS3 locus has made it difficult to narrow the disease interval sufficiently to identify the gene by positional cloning. We hypothesized that the genomes of model organisms that contained the orthologues to known BBS genes would also likely contain a BBS3 orthologue. Therefore, comparative genomic analysis was performed to prioritize BBS candidate genes for mutation screening. Known BBS proteins were compared with the translated genomes of model organisms to identify a subset of organisms in which these proteins were conserved. By including multiple organisms that have relatively small genome sizes in the analysis, the number of candidate genes was reduced, and a few genes mapping to the BBS3 interval emerged as the best candidates for this disorder. One of these genes, ADP-ribosylation factor-like 6 (ARL6), contains a homozygous stop mutation that segregates completely with the disease in the Bedouin kindred originally used to map the BBS3 locus, identifying this gene as the BBS3 gene. These data illustrate the power of comparative genomic analysis for the study of human disease and identifies a novel BBS gene.
