CLEVELAND -- The A's on Monday fielded a 24-man roster after sending out right-hander Graham Godfrey, who was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento before the start of the club's series at Progressive Field.
There was no corresponding move, but right-handed reliever Neil Wagner, acquired via trade from the Indians last year for cash, is expected to be selected from Triple-A on Tuesday and join Oakland's bullpen to fill out the active roster. Wagner has not yet appeared in a Major League game.
The club has to wait a day to make the transaction because lefty Jerry Blevins -- designated for assignment on Saturday -- needs to clear waiver options before a spot on the 40-man opens. Though that will happen Tuesday, it doesn't mean Blevins will be taken off the roster. The A's could choose to transfer Daric Barton (right shoulder) to the 60-day disabled list.
Wagner, who has quietly posted impressive numbers with Sacramento since his promotion from Double-A on June 25, would be the 14th relief arm used by the A's this year. He is 2-1 with a 3.10 ERA in 22 appearances for the River Cats and has compiled 34 strikeouts in 29 innings.
Godfrey's move was expected, as he was recalled following the first game of Saturday's doubleheader in Boston to start the second contest. He took the loss, allowing three runs on six hits in four innings before an hour-long rain delay ended his night.
Overall, the righty is 1-2 with a 4.71 ERA in four starts with the A's this year.
"It's about getting the opportunity and consistent chance at the big league level," manager Bob Melvin said. "He definitely has the stuff to be able to do it. It's just refining it and maintaining consistency with it."
Wuertz could return to A's this week
CLEVELAND -- It's unclear what type of additions the A's will make come Sept. 1, when rosters officially expand, but the club could be getting back a familiar face around the same time.
Michael Wuertz (thumb) tossed a scoreless inning for Class A Stockton on Sunday, allowing a leadoff hit before retiring the side on strikeouts. He could potentially need only one more rehab appearance before returning to the club. Wuertz has been stationed on the 15-day disabled list since July 30.
"His velocity was up to 93, and he felt really good from the comments I read on the report," manager Bob Melvin said. "I can see him making at least one more start."
The A's have used a handful of other arms in the seventh inning in Wuertz's absence, most notably Fautino De Los Santos, who has a 4.82 ERA over his last 11 games in increasingly significant roles after posting a 2.35 mark in his first 12 contests.
Worth noting
The A's on Monday showed up at Progressive Field revitalized, following a rough stretch that saw them play four games between Thursday and Saturday that spanned a combined 14 hours and 19 minutes, for an average of 3 hours and 35 minutes per contest.
Saturday's doubleheader in Boston proved torturous, as it featured rain delays totaling 5 hours and 29 minutes. The A's arrived at Fenway Park shortly after 9 a.m. ET that day and didn't leave until nearly midnight.
"We were there more than 12 hours, and going through the delays and so forth, which can be taxing. Then on top of it, at least from the players' standpoint, you have to deal with the conditions and deal with coming on and off the field, which is a mental grind," manager Bob Melvin said. "All of that kind of wears on you to an extent, so it was good we had a day off."
Lefty Josh Outman, who used 77 pitches through four innings of relief in the nightcap of Saturday's twin bill in Boston, will remain in the bullpen but will be rested for at least two more days, following his seven-strikeout performance.
"He's a guy coming off an injury, so we have to be careful with him," Melvin said. "The organization has him as a starter down the road, but in the interim, he could be a nice piece to have in the bullpen."

During the recent APEC summit in Sydney, Australia, an entire fleet of yachts sailing through Sydney Harbor were illuminated with SGM Palco 5 fixtures with OEM-installed WDMX™ receivers in a first-of-its-kind display.
The exhibition was part of a showcase for the leaders and ministers from 21 APEC economies, displaying the best that Sydney has to offer. The APEC summit involved a series of meetings focused on the discussion of economic, trade, security, and environmental topics.
Produced and designed by Mark Hammer of Hammer Lighting, in conjunction with Simon Crow of Chameleon Touring, the sailing display was part of the formal finale event hosted at the Sydney Opera House. The display was a formation and exhibition sail involving 5 tall ship and 18 30-foot yachts, which followed a massive fireworks display.
Each of the yachts had their sails illuminated by two SGM Palco 5 RGB LEDs with onboard WDMX receivers on either side of their sails. The effects included color changing, rainbow effects, chases, and the ability to light up each side differently. The LEDs were powered only by gasoline generators.
DMX control was provided by Wireless Solution's WDMX system. The entire fleet was controlled by one WDMX transmitter fitted with an outdoor aerial signal booster. This configuration was designed to transmit to the WDMX receivers within a half-mile radius (1km), however it did better, and controlled the Palcos at much greater distances. At one stage the control boat containing Mark Hammer, a grandMA console, and the WDMX transmitter was located under the Harbor Bridge, while controlling the yachts in White Bay, an approximate 4-mile (6.4 kms) distance. According to Hammer, even over this distance, the WDMX "worked effortlessly and never skipped a beat."
Both Crow and Hammer agree that this project would have been impossible without the WDMX system and low power consumption of the Palco 5. Crow asks, "What would I have done—put DMX controllers on every yacht? That would never have worked!" He goes further to say that the Wireless Solution system "worked all day and all night without a hitch, and has continued to do so since." He even suggests that we will see a lot more events combining wireless systems and LED due to the flexibility and color options such a system provides with the benefits of low power consumption.
The WDMX system and the SGM Palco 5s were provided by the exclusive Australian distributor, ULA. Crow was very effusive about ULA's attention to detail and customer service and support on this project. He states, "ULA provided fantastic service and extra attention to ensure that the project worked without any issues. Con Nomikos, ULA account manager, came onsite the day before the event to help during testing, when we checked everything worked on dry land, and then also came on the night to ensure that everything was fine. ULA was a fantastic help."

Based on reports coming out about what the NCAA's going to do to Penn State, the widely repeated "unprecedented" portion of the punishment won't exactly refer to the nature of the penalties, but rather how they were arrived at. As Charles Robinson reports, "a 'multiple-year' bowl ban and 'crippling' scholarship losses" are included, but it's NCAA president Mark Emmert's unilateral wielding of sanctions that's the truly ground-breaking element.
Technically, it's not the NCAA that's punishing Penn State. It's the NCAA president. This indeed changes things and will set up some very weird discussions the next time a school gets in trouble.
Typically, NCAA investigations take many months and involve several give-and-take phases in which the school argues its case, is informed of its charges and so forth. By comparison, Miami's NCAA investigation has been going on for months longer than Penn State's has and appears far from over.
In this instance, Emmert's skipping much of the process and using Penn State's own commissioned report by Louis Freeh as all the evidence he needs, Robinson reports. Emmert's granted himself this power by way of the NCAA's constitution and its board of directors, which has signed off on the move.
If Penn State hadn't chosen to pay for its own investigation into itself, the NCAA would have to do its own detective work here, meaning PSU sped up the process, quite possibly by years. And that report was hardly exhaustive -- it certainly was revealing but wasn't a legal document. Basing the entire thing on a report the school released on its own does not feel rock solid by any means, even considering the conclusion we're meant to take from that report is that all the true bad actors are gone.
Now we have a man consolidating a never-before-seen amount of institutional power for himself in order to punish a school for letting a man have too much power, days after we all laughed at the Big Ten for wanting to do the same. This is going to change things.

As many of you may know, I'm actually pretty young. I'm a volunteer and not a staff member. I recently found work at my local Wendy's and then the proceeding week I was called for an over the phone interview by the library. In Alberta, the minimum wage is $9.95 per hour and that's what I'm being paid at Wendy's right now. The rate offered by the library was $11.44 per hour. I kindly told the library then I found other opportunities. Now, I bet you're wondering why I turned the offer down and how does this blog post relate to Mozilla but I'll talk about that later. I want to compare what experience and work I have already gained and will gain more when working with Wendy's versus working a the local library. In my opinion, the customer is always placed first and obviously at the library people leave and go, there's nobody there to greet you unless you have an issue. But, you come to Wendy's with one purpose and that's to purchase food. I keep thinking if the decision I made was right, I can't be sure that I made the right decision but all I would be doing at the library would be shelving books. At Wendy's, I gain more experience and insight with the outside world by seeing the different types of customers there are, preparing orders and cleaning. With all these things, I can use it at another job and possibly even at home. With the main job at the library;shelving books, I lack the reading out books. I would've done a bad job as well and I wouldn't have learned any life skills. Now, this all relates with me still being in school and taking the leadership class that is available. The actual name for the program is Human and Social Services and really, a lot of students when asked about why they don't take leadership, they ask "what's so good about it?" or "who needs it?". In my opinion, contributing to Mozilla is all about leadership and taking the torch!
Leadership, when you first think of it, they don't teach you life lessons but only teach you how to lead but I've now gotten to understand leadership in a different perspective. Leadership isn't just about how to lead but it's really about public speaking, taking risks, building community, volunteering, mentoring and working in groups on projects. And you're wondering why I think differently and why I may have a very different perspective.
With public speaking, you can speak loudly and freely at Wendy's but obviously there is no harassment permitted. At the library, it's obviously a quiet place and you have to keep it down. I'm somewhat a loud person at times. With taking risks, there isn't much risk involved at the library but at Wendy's, you face the risk or burning yourself, taking an incorrect order or even mishandling the change for somebody. How does this tie back to Mozilla? Well, I took the risk to facilitate the "What does Mozillian mean?" session at the summit. With the other key points in leadership, building community, mentoring and working in groups on projects. You need a strong community in order to mentor each other and to cooperate effectively on projects. This relates to Wendy's as I'm the new guy and I obviously am in training, with the library, I don't feel that I can express myself in a quiet environment and place. Also, if I was to be mentored (trained) to work in the library, it would have to be out of the visitors eye because you don't want to annoy the visitor. So, this is why I believe I made the right decision to choosing to work at Wendy's. Now, to tie this all back to Mozilla, we are a global community that mentors each other and we work on projects all the time! So this is why leadership exists in Mozilla even when you don't think there is any leadership.
Now, in the end, really - how does this tie all the way back to Mozilla? My key area of contribution to is SUMO (Support), and with the community that exists there, I'm happy but not extremely happy because I know it is possible for it to be better. I gained insight through SUMO about Firefox, was made more aware of Firefox for Android and am helping with Firefox OS questions. I gained experiencing in the browser field and the technology field and I was more aware of the tools Mozilla has and how it is better than other browsers! The most important thing is that SUMO has mentors and I am one too now, but when I got started, I was happy to be in a place where everybody was so welcoming and friendly. I can say that SUMO isn't as fun filled as it was but the excitement still exists. I know that SUMO can do better and I believe it has to do better in order for us to cooperate more and do more in a global community that is connected by a common cause.

very easy and delicious
This is very easy to bake, I love the ingredients n I've made it n it was so deliouse tastes, n u must try it,n thank you so much from taste of home, I would like more of different recipe .
Oh my word. The smell from my kitchen was awesome. I made a double batch. This recipe is phenomenal. I altered it to use truvia instead of sugar. And I don't normally use nutmeg so I skipped it. We dived in without the sauce. I might or might not make the sauce tomorrow.
I used rum extract in place of the vanilla. It smelled so good coming out of the oven that we had it all gone doing "taste tests" before I ever got around to making the sauce. Definately a winner.
Love this recipe! I've been making it since it appeared in Taste of Home in '94. It is very flavorful. The sauce is a must for this. I've used this sauce for other recipes. Yum!

I appreciate a good analogy, especially when it comes to terms that can be defined in multiple ways. Employee engagement and alignment are a good example. Here's a brilliant analogy from a local business journal:
Via Roger Francis, Jean-Philippe D'HALLUIN, donhornsby
donhornsby's curator insight, August 31, 7:21 AM
(From the article): Employee engagement is essential to an organization's success, and alignment is arguably even more important. As an example, consider a 400-meter relay race. The winning team carries the baton past the finish line first. The direction of the finish line represents alignment between employees and the organization's vision and goals. The speed of each runner is akin to engagement. To win, every runner in the team must run fast (i.e. be engaged with the organization) but also run in the direction of the next runner or the finish line (i.e. be aligned)."

donhornsby's curator insight, August 30, 4:06 PM
If you're working on something important, then you'll never feel ready. A side effect of doing challenging work is that you're pulled by excitement and pushed by confusion at the same time.
You're bound to feel uncertain, unprepared, and unqualified. But let me assure you of this: what you have right now is enough. You can plan, delay, and revise all you want, but trust me, what you have now is enough to start.
It doesn't matter if you're trying to start a business, lose weight, write a book, or achieve any number of goals… who you are, what you have, and what you know right now is good enough to get going.
We all start in the same place: no money, no resources, no contacts, no experience. The difference is that some people — the winners — choose to start anyway.
Don Cloud's curator insight, September 1, 10:43 AM
If you are only doing things for which you think you're "ready", then you are *not* growing ... and you are holding yourself back from your greater potential.
So get comfortable pushing (or throwing) yourself outside your comfort zone. And as you grow and develop your people, remember that it's the leaders job (e.g. your job) to push (or throw) them outside of their comfort zone, too -- for their own good.

Display the season's cards and photos by tucking them into this fleece-covered tree you can keep on a tabletop or hang on a wall.
Use a craft knife to cut the cardboard into 2 matching triangles with a 26-inch base and height. Cut the fleece into 2 triangles as well, one the same size as the cardboard triangles and the other about 2 inches longer on each side. Center the smaller piece of fleece on the larger one, then stack the cardboard triangles atop the fleece.
Hot-glue the edges of the larger piece of fabric around the cardboard, folding the corners as shown.
Turn over the cardboard and crisscross strips of ribbon across the front. Be sure to leave a few inches hanging over each side so you can glue them to the back.
To secure the ribbons in place, slip a bead, followed by a sequin, onto a pin (one for each ribbon intersection), then push the pins through the front of the cardboard where the ribbons cross.
Flip the board over again and use pliers to bend the end of each pin against the cardboard (a parent's job), then cover each pin with a square of duct tape. Now glue the ends of the ribbons to the back of the triangle, and let the glue dry completely.
To display your card holder, lean it against a wall or staple a loop of ribbon to the back for a hanger.

The Cardinals' struggling passing game got bad news Tuesday as WR Steve Breaston reportedly underwent surgery for a torn meniscus and is expected to miss a "couple of games."
Mike Jurecki of XTRA Sports 910 in Arizona reported the surgery. Breaston leads the Cardinals with 14 catches for 183 yards. WR Early Doucet is recovering from groin surgery, and WR Larry Fitzgerald has had a slow start to the season.
The way we see it
Breaston has had health issues but has been able to play through them until now. Fitzgerald has not been connecting well with QB Derek Anderson. The next guys in line are both undrafted rookies, Stephen Williams and Max Komar. This is not a good situation for an offense that has not looked good at all, as Breaston had been the best weapon through the air. With RB Beanie Wells back, the Cardinals may go to the ground a lot more often this Sunday against the Chargers.

The Maw Hits Xbox Live Arcade Next WeekWhile this week's Xbox Live Arcade release is still a mystery, developer Twisted Pixel has announced that its downloadable effort The Maw will hit Xbox 360 next week.
Slated to arrive on Wednesday, January 21 at 800 Microsoft Points ($10), The Maw is an action-adventure game in which players run, jump, and feed their blob of a companion. Much like some other pink blob, The Maw can "absorb the traits of anything he eats."
Weighing in at a mere 150MB, the game utilizes 85:1 compression technology. Without that, the developer told Xbox 360 Fanboy, the download would be around 2GB.

The Catholic University for Independent Thinkers
Each semester, students have the opportunity to participate in a weekend- long retreat held off campus. This past weekend, February 14-16, 2014, was the women's retreat, which was organized and led by the Sisters of Mercy. The three days were spent in silent reflection and prayer, and the girls were able to attend daily mass, confession, and perpetual adoration. There were also talks on prayer and vocations, as well as the chance for spiritual direction with the Sisters and priests.
It's also worth mentioning that the retreat was held at the Casa Divin Maestro, a center overlooking Lake Albano, with views of Castel Gandolfo and even the dome of St. Peter's in the distance. Not only was this a beautiful and quiet place to spend the weekend, but it is also the retreat center where Pope Francis will hold the Lenten Retreat for the Roman Curia later this Spring!

Courteney and Jen Friends with Benefits
by POPSUGAR Celebrity 65 Reactions 0 Shares Print
We were beyond excited to have Jen and Courteney reunite on the small screen when Court announced that her BFF Jen will guest star on Dirt. Turns out it's going to be more exciting than we thought. Jen will star as another tabloid editor and Courteney's character's archenemy. But wait, it gets better. According to Michael Ausiello of TVGuide.com, "Aniston's character is a lesbian. What's more, she won't just mouth off to Cox's tightly wound counterpart; she's going to share a lip lock with her." Talk about ratings gold. Isn't it great to see what friends will do for one another.... for their art of course.

#1, no, in fact I do not refer to Angelina as "Angelina Holy". #2, brokenhalo, it was childish and presumptuous of you to even ask such a ridiculous question. #3, why does Angelina ALWAYS surface within the comments of a Jennifer article, and #4, cari907, it's quite easy for me to hate Jennifer Aniston. She's talentless, boring, ugly as sin, and as hard as it may be to believe, NONE of my feelings stem from a secret admiration of Angelina Jolie. In fact, I think Angelina is irritating, as well. Any more stupid, infantile questions anyone want to ask me? No? Then let's move on, shall we.

I am a huge fan of Jennifer's and I think she is beautiful. I don't think she is the most gorgeous woman in Hollywood but thats not why I'm a fan anyway. I've seen every episode of Dirt and while I was a little nervous after watching the first episode, I really got into it. Courtney is really great in it and I hope the series contines.

fantasia, I'm a bit insulted by that. I think I can make an objective observation about things, and I was familier with both CC & JA before AJ, a lot longer, and my opinion has always been the same. Plus, how did or why did the subject of Angelina come up anyway?

wow, this really screams DESPERATE! but I always thought Aniston gave a lesbian vibe...so is fitting.

Jen has a cute personality (at least on TV) but who can really say honestly that she is a stunning beauty? Cutesy..sure. She has a great body..fine. But stunningly beautiful..no. I only recently became an A.J. fan. I was a huge fan of friends, but never of hers. Not since I suspected that she stole Tate Donovan from Sandra Bullock. And Sandra out sweets her.. so Team Sandra :)

jinx......I look at JT, Lance Bass, Patrick Dempsey (he is yums but just not super yums IMO) and a few more, and I don't get it, but it's all subjective as I also think Matt Damon is one of the sexiest fellas out there. I mean if I had to choose at gunpoint, between him and George Clooney, Matt wins.

I agree Courtney is more beautiful than Jennifer, while I still think Jennifer is too. Like you say, she's cute and I think she has a certain spark.

mar..........I have always thought CC was the more attractive, and I have always thought that if Jennifer Aniston weren't famous she would not be called some of the things she has like beautiful, gorgeous, stunning. Sorry, but I look around at others in show biz and the real world, and whiles she's cute, attractive, got a great figure (better than CC's) she's not by any stretch of "my" imagination a showstopper.

The hair is the only similarity I see. I think they are both beautiful, and I love Jen but what's with the intense stare in this pic?!? :LOL: Anyway, the show is good but it does have too much sex in it, IMO. It's cool that Jennifer will be on the show with her friend.

Has anyone seen Dirt because I haven't gotten a chance to watch it? I was excited to hear about Cox's new project and the previews look good, but I can't see it because I work. If you've seen it do tell. Please only unbiased opinions, I know there are those out there who might not like Cox because of Aniston, but I just want to know about the show.

Metro's left side is getting a workout
Yesterday, Metro underscored the existence of liberal bias in journalism.
A page devoted only to celebrities who feel a certain way was the most blatant.
But all of the articles went beyond reporting the news of the Supreme Court striking down the Defense of Marriage Act and into offering opinions.
As a supporter of civil unions and equal rights for gays under the law, I feel that the sacrament of matrimony is between one man and one woman.
Metro [on June 27] tried to equate that opinion with supporting segregation.
No, these are two completely different issues, and, instead of imagined bigoted opinions from Sean Penn expressed to win a one-man argument, actually talk to people who feel that marriage is the issue, not discrimination.

AuSABLE FORKS — A fire at the old J&J Paper Mill damaged three large sections of abandoned AuSable Forks landmark Sunday morning.
AuSable Forks Fire Department Chief Mike Lincoln said the department was called out to the old brick building at about 6:30 a.m.
"When we arrived, the roof had collapsed and that section of the building was fully involved," he said. "It's not the biggest fire we've been to there but it was significant. That section of the structure may be in danger of collapse."
Seven additional fire departments were called in to assist. Trucks from Jay, Upper Jay, Wilmington, Keeseville, Peru, South Plattsburgh and Willsboro were involved in the firefighting effort. Lincoln said his department's tanker task force was called to the scene to draw water from the Ausable River, about half a mile away. He estimated that between 200,000 and 300,000 gallons of water were used in fighting the fire.
Lincoln said the old paper mill, off French Village Road in the Town of Black Brook, hasn't been occupied for about 30 or 40 years and has been the scene of multiple fires in the past. He said he believes the mill changed ownership in the past few years but had yet to check with the Town of Black Brook code enforcement officer to see who owns the vacant building. He also said fire investigators will be at the site to determine if the fire was an arson.
J&J Rogers was a significant source of employment in the Town of Black Brook from 1829 to 1971, according the Special Collections at SUNY Plattsburgh. Originally an iron mill, it later converted to pulp and paper manufacturing. It was sold in 1955 and continued to operate until paper product demands declined. With the additional demands of the State of New York for a waste-water treatment plant to prevent pollution of the Ausable River, the plant would become a financial burden and was closed.

i have an idw with a black drawing background, i want to change this to a different colour but cant seem to find where to do this, could someone point me in the right direction to do this.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Can you post a screencap of this?
Did you find this reply helpful ? If so please use the Accept as Solution or Kudos button below.___________________________
Attached is a screen shot of what i mean, i want to change the black area to a different colour.
To change the sheet colour:
"Tools" ribbon -> "Document Settings" -> "Sheet" Tab -> "Sheet" button
just realized you might have some fun with this...
If you have a black sheet then I'm guessing all your styles are in something like white or yellow (ie a light colour) to be visible against the black. If you change the sheet to a white/beige then you may well be drawing white on beige, which might not be massively helpful. May have to go into Styles Editor to change all your layers to something dark("Manage" ribbon -> "Styles Editor" -> "Layers" and then click one to display the colour tabs)...
just what i was looking for great.
does that mean it's a solution?
yes worked a treat just what i was after, i know what you mean about the text etc on the background.
i only wanted to change it while i made some changes to the border and then i will be changing it back to the original colour.
many thanks for your help with this matter.
I was more suggesting to mark the reply as an approved solution, if you find it to be one
It adds the green tick to the title so if anyone in the future with a similar problem searches the forum, they can tell just from the title that there is a possible solution inside (without needing to open and read every search result).

UFC 168 was billed as one of the biggest shows in the organization's history, and the card lived up to the hype. Of course, the main talking point of the night (and for days to come) was Anderson Silva's horrific leg break, which may spell the end of his legendary career. As for Chris Weidman, his career is only 11 fights old, and next year he'll take on the rest of the middleweight division as he marches towards his own level of greatness.
We saw Ronda Rousey get pushed into rounds 2 and 3 and still win by armbar, Travis Browne get another upset win to close out 2013, and Dustin Poirier coming through on his promise to "break" Diego Brandao. Tim Burke normally runs this feature, but he was away last night and that means I'll take the reigns for today's fantasy matchmaking piece.
Chris Weidman. Two fights with Anderson, two bizarre and unexpected results, two wins for Chris Weidman. Even before Silva's leg break he was clearly winning the fight and in control, and there's no doubt in my mind that he's the best 185er on the planet. Vitor Belfort will be Weidman's next challenger, it's all a matter of where the fight will take place and whether or not Belfort will be allowed to use TRT for this fight.
Anderson Silva. The outcome was unfathomable. If Silva had lost by 1st round TKO I think we would've moved split talk between Silva's decline and Weidman's established position as one of the best fighters in the world. Instead, the defining MMA photo of 2013 is the great Anderson Silva being carried out on a stretcher, immobilized and in agony after breaking his leg in two places. I don't think Silva has declined to the point where I'd question his chances against Brad Tavares, but Father Time has caught up with him and I think we have seen the last of "The Spider".
Ronda Rousey. Well the UFC already did the work for me. The 2008 Olympic bronze medalist in Judo will fight Sara McMann, the 2004 Olympic silver medalist in freestyle wrestling, in the main event of UFC 170 in Las Vegas. I think McMann is a far more formidable opponent for Rousey than Tate and it should be a good one.
Miesha Tate. I believe that as women's MMA progresses, Tate will be phased out of the top 5 (where she's presently ranked) and ultimately away from title contention. Her striking has not progressed at all and her in-fight decisions are puzzling. I think the UFC will try and re-book her against Liz Carmouche, which was the plan for UFC on Fox 8 before Cat Zingano injured her knee.
Travis Browne. Hapa put his bloody elbows to great use last night, and I cannot think of any UFC fighter who has ever effectively KO'd two people by defending the takedown and slamming elbows to the side of the head. Dana White said the winner of Barnett/Browne was going to face Fabricio Werdum, and I assume that's what we'll see some time in the spring of 2014.
Josh Barnett. That's Barnett's title hopes slammed shut for good. He's lost to both Daniel Cormier and Browne, and he looked out of his depth last night. He had no answer for Browne's striking and found himself napping after 1 minute. If he can't beat those two, then he certainly doesn't have a prayer against JDS or Velasquez, so consider Barnett another top 10 heavyweight with zero chance of being a title challenger. I think he'll get the loser of Gabriel Gonzaga/Stipe Miocic next.
Jim Miller. I love watching Jim Miller fight, and his submission of Camoes was outstanding. Mind you, I don't think Miller was that effective on the feet and took some good shots, but his strongest skills are on the ground to begin with. This was suggested on Twitter last night and I absolutely endorse it. Michael Johnson, who wiped out Gleison Tibau on the prelims, is a great opponent and terrific matchmaking. It's a stern test for Johnson and it gives Miller his own upgrade in opposition without diving right back into fighting other top 10 guys.
Fabricio Camoes. His last two losses are to Melvin Guillard and Jim Miller. There's no shame in losing to either of those guys, but he's now 1-3-1 in the UFC and is probably one loss away from being cut. If he isn't cut already, I believe Roger Bowling in a "loser leaves town" match is appropriate.
Dustin Poirier. He survived the flash knockdown and otherwise did a tremendous job of picking his spots and countering Brandao's haymakers with measured, accurate strikes. Poirier said he'd "break" Brandao and he definitely put a beating on Diego. At 24 years old he's an excellent talent deserving of his top 10 status, and I believe he'll be matched up with Dennis Siver.
Diego Brandao. A car accident is apparently the reason for Brandao's inability to make weight. The drain on his body was apparent as he loaded up everything he could to end the fight in round 1, but he ended up getting finished. He's still a fun fighter to watch and I see him getting paired up with the loser of Cole Miller/Sam Sicilia.

Recent Features
Fascinating and very long article by a self-confessed Diablo 3 Auction House botter, talking about how he made over 100k Euros in a year, entirely through buying low and selling high on the AH and RMAH. The article is huge and goes into great detail about everything, including the scripts he used, the multiple machines he had running, and how easy it was to avoid Blizzard's very lacking anti-botting measures.
The botter's first attempts were by using a very simple script to scan Auction House listings, one item at a time, and automatically buy ones with stats that exceeded his set parameters, and with a price below his maximum value. This required him to know which items were powerful, what the best stats on them were, how much they'd sell for on the RMAH, etc. It took a lot of work and daily updates to the search scripts, but with millions of players using the AH, many of them without a clue about the actual value of their items, it was shooting fish in a barrel.
I remember in these months I used to search a lot for rare rings or rare amulets. What still comes to my mind is a criteria searching for rare amulets with more than 7 critical hit chance and more than 50 critical hit damage and buying any that cost below 1 or 2 million gold. I sold amulets with these criteria on the RMAH (Real Money Auction House), for tens and sometimes even 100+ euros. Stuff like 7+ crit chance, 50+ crit damage and a high main stat like strength or intelligence + vitality was considered pretty good back then. Trifectas ( crit chance + crit damage + increased attack speed) was even more rare and expensive.
Another popular thing I remember botting the old fashioned way was Chantodo's force wizard sources. These were great because almost no one seemed to know that the property "Arcane power on critical hit" was actually rare and very valuable. So you could just adjust your bot to search for chantodo's force sources with arcane power on crit and above a specific damage, choose the minimum price under which the bot would buy any item it found, and you were good to go.
That was the very earliest version of the system, which was active in late 2012. The technology was quickly improved and with better coding his bot became able to search many types of items at once, all with different selected stats and minimum values in them, with different pricing criteria, and he figured ways to keep it refreshing constantly, so it would scan literally every single gold item sale that appeared within seconds of it going on the market.
On January 1st I started selling those sweet sweet presents. And the results were staggering. The money started flowing in immediately. Before, I was searching for 1 variation of 1 single item, for example any Mempo of Twilight with Critical Hit Chance, below the price of 1 million gold. Now, I could search for 100 different variations of Mempo of Twilight, plus hundreds of variations of all other worthwhile items. In the first days though, I only had one bot account, which I was using to bot some legendary items in the "armor" category. Even with this small sample of all possible items though, it was soon obvious to me that I had to buy a very powerful PC which could run more than 1 diablo window, and would also search the Auction House which much higher FPS (Frames per second).
He also made a fortune buying items that people mislisted in gold instead of RMT. That seems impossible, but the article has literally dozens of screenshots of spectacular items listed at 150 or 200 gold, when clearly the seller meant to list them at those prices… in EUROS! And no, the conversion rate of Diablo 3 gold to real money wasn't exactly 1-to-1…
First I bought one more account and started using 2 accounts which were botting for legendary Armor. Why another one botting the same subset of items? Take another look at the screenshots above.

German Consumer Agency Targets BlizzardPosted 15 Jun 2012 by
As if the Korean and French consumer bodies weren't enough to be contending with Silverfang sends word that The Federation of German Consumer Organisations (vzbv) has raised action against Blizzard accusing them of antitrust violations.
It seems information on the German Diablo 3 box does not make it clear that a permanent internet connection is required or that the game is tied to the consumer's battle.net account permanently. I can't imagine that the box does not state 'internet connection is required' but perhaps it isn't clear that the single player option also requires a permanent connection. Without that made crystal clear one could easily assume the single player aspect wouldn't require a connection.
The problem with the game being permanently tied to the consumer's battle.net account seems to be that it prevents resale. The VZBV require that both of these things be made clear on the box.
In amongst this is the thorn in Blizzard's side, the server infrastructure and it's inability to cope with the volume of customers. Outside of patching I don't know if that's even still an issue in Europe now.
Blizzard have until the 13th of July to respond.

Select Route:
I felt like I was back in the Wasatch while on this route! For the Interior this route deserves 4 stars for these reasons: committing moves over runout terrain and excellent exposure; great length of pitch and aesthetically pleasing, quality rock; and the approach allows you to be on a great route within an hour while feeling very alpine and out of the way. The cruxes hit you at the beginning as you access a great hand crack, and up above where you meet a funky dihedral and squeeze section that leads to easier terrain to the top of the formation. Gear heads need to make this a yearly must do!
Route on the North aspect of the formation. Locate a magical grassy ledge and a Birch tree and scramble up to this terrace. Hand crack is located 20-25 feet off the deck lookers left. The Rappel Route is your ticket down.
Cams and nuts on this route. There are some pins that the FA's encountered and I also encountered one of those pins moving out of the dihedral and transitioning into the squeeze section. Utilize the anchors (slings with rap rings) of the Rappel Route for anchor or set up your own gear at the top.

Financial Policy Overseas
As part of Pacific Environment's broader mission, our global work promotes environmentally and socially sustainable policies and practices among public and private finance institutions. With a principal focus on energy and the extractive sector (renewable energy, oil, gas, coal, mining, and forestry) on the Pacific Rim, Pacific Environment persuades these finance institutions to be more open, accountable, and responsive to citizens concerns, particularly in project-affected communities.
Our work to reform the policies and practices of public and private banks has expanded its focus to include multilateral development banks, export credit agencies, and large private international banks. After a decade of campaigning, a basic environmental policy framework is now in place for each of the three classes of institutions. However, proper implementation of these policies has become a vexing challenge, and structures that obscure funding flows, such as private equity and financial intermediaries, are expanding.
The lesson weve learned over the years is simple: Harmful extractive projects in the developing world rarely go forward without large sums of public and private financing. Block or change the flow of this financing and you get results: the worst projects can be blocked; many projects can be greatly improved; good project, including renewable energy can advance, and local people can have a greater say in decisions that affect their lives.

CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) - Hoodie's House of Hope for Youth and Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Activities League teamed up to give some relief to the homeless, elderly and under served.
Jeff Hood organized the event. About 300 people packed the Greenville Recreation Center for a post holiday meal.
"I want them to come today," Hood said. "And kind of put all of that aside for four or five hours and just focus on - you are still on this side of the dirt and still alive."
Not only was a meal offered, but they were given a safe and secure environment to play games, watch TV, get clothing, and a fresh haircut.
"It's always nice to know that someone is offering a helping hand," Participant Lashawynda Smith said. "And to others you know. We are all struggling this time of year."
The event cost about $10,000. Sponsors made it all happen. People who showed up were glad the police were involved in this event.
"It builds the bond between the police department and neighborhood," Smith said. "Keeps the communication line open so everybody feels free to talk to them about what's going on."
This was the first time for this type of fellowship and organizers say it won't be the last.

Bottle from the brewery.
I've been sitting on this one for a little while and since company came over I thought this would be the perfect beer to shock some people! I guess the first shocker was the self pouring bottle. She opens with a huge hiss and foams violently for a few seconds until the pressures equalize. Pours a slightly cloudy reddish brown color with a huge bubbly tan head that piles it high but recedes almost instantly. Initially I got lots of banana and tropical fruit but that seemed to quickly give way to more of a lemon and tart cherry thing on the nose. Earthy funk with a touch of yeastiness and wood round out the nose. The flavor still holds a bit of sweet brown sugary malt which is a bit surprising! The funky earthiness is more prevalent in the flavor and mixes well with the dates which add a bit of sweetness. Light tart tropical fruit with just a touch of wood and alcohol round everything out. Medium body with a moderate level of carbonation and a sweet tart lightly tongue pricking mouthfeel. Hugely interesting beer, that most of my guests couldn't stomach. A little sweet for a sour, but I really enjoyed this beer.

Didn't think I would ever get to try this, but thanks to rudzud for it.
Pours a light fizzy head that fades almost instantly. Dark murky caramel ruby maroon color.
Nose brings nice blend of sour malts and caramel candy malts, nice toffee and caramel, candy, etc, with great sour tart fruits and souring bacteria, with a nice tart guava and guava extract, and plenty of candied dates, nice buttery vanilla oak, oak is so buttery.
Taste brings sweet and sour, big on both. Are nice barleywine like malt profile, with caramel candy malts and little whisky like barrel note, lots of buttery and vanilla oak rounding. Some sour malt notes, and into tart fruit, nice sour like guava note with big guava juice, into a candied date again, nice dark fruit. Back end gets a bit of a meh sour porter note, and acidic sour vinous note. Finish is sticky syrupy and flemmy, more candied dates and guava paste, bit some bitter tannins as well, little oak barrel and dark sour malts.
Mouth is med to fuller bod, syrupy but sour and acidic, flemmy, hint of booze.
Overall really interesting nice sour, great guava and date fruits, nice sour malts and candy malt flavours, and nice barrel rounding, but that tannic somewhat unpleasant finish takes it down a notch.

Received a long time ago in a trade, shared with JLindros.
A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice crystal clear mahogany hue with some
thin head that fades to leave a light halo.
S - Aromas of guava and dates. Nice amount of oak solid barrel, buttery oak, light vanilla, almost vinous quality. Very nice. Candied dates, super pleasant.
T - Taste is loads of guava, shockingly loads of guava, sweet sugar dates, caramel, toffee, oak, slightly medicinal sweetness. Finish is quite tart with light vinous notes. Loads of oak tannins that for me distract me.
M - Mouthfeel is very nicely carbonated with the alcohol hidden well.
O - Overall this was a bit of a confusing beer. I like the aroma, and the taste, but the super tannic finish just hinders this beers potential.

Hi there, I would like some suggestions on how to improve a simple javascript code on my web site.
The left navigation menu slides down as you scroll the page. It works perfect on the computer I'm using now with IE8, Google Chrome and Firefox on Windows 7.
However when I try it on any other computer with IE8 or another browser, when you reach the bottom of the page the menu continues to scroll thereby creating white space.
Please try it out and let me know if it does the same thing on your browser and what you are using.
If someone can help offer suggestions on how to improve the code, that would be great!

Comments about Pink Kitty Girl's Costume:
the costume is cute, i used it for a halloween party and it was just too short. all of the boys were crushing on me and then my bf broke up with me thanks to this dumb costume. i told my bf what happened he forgave me but did not ask me out again.i woud give this to a friend if they want to get dumped!
Comments about Pink Kitty Girl's Costume:
My mom bought this for my sister and my sister was only able to wear the dress because the gloves were small and the leg warmers were big and uncomfortable. The ears on the hood were not able to be identified as ears because the was to much fur, so it looked like a two balls of fur on her head, and we wished that the tail would detachable because the tail was itching my sisters.

Officers are investigating an armed robbery that happened at a local church, according to a report from the Monroe Police Department.
Officers responded to an armed robbery call Monday just before 9 p.m. at Iglesia de Dios Nueva Vida church on Engleside Street in Monroe.
Witnesses told police several people were inside the church when a man came in with a shotgun or rifle and starting grabbing all of the women's purses.
The man, who was wearing a black mask, black jacket, red shirt and brown/khaki pants, never said anything, but did point his gun at several people, the report states.
The man then walked out with all of the purses in an unknown direction, police said.
Officers searched the area, but were unable to locate anyone.
Anyone with information about this incident should call the Monroe Police Department.
