Gypsy vs. Roma: "Gypsy" conjures up all kinds of stereotypical images of Roma in the minds of viewers and readers. It should be replaced by Roma. Gypsy has been applied to the Roma by outsiders and it is offensive to many Roma just like Indian is offensive to Canada's Native People. Ronald Lee, Roma Community Centre
'Of all the stereotypes of the Roma, the social construct of "Gypsy criminality" has had the most devastating impact upon the social status of the community.'
To increase ratings or sell newspapers the Gypsy as Thief stereotype is sensationalized by news media all over the world. A disproportionate number of stories vilify the Roma – usually portraying them as con artist and thieves. Viewers believe the reports without question simply because they saw it on the news – resulting in the most damaging stereotype against the Roma.
'The criminal stereotype of the Roma fails to recognize Roma as victims of crime too – and in particular of hate crime.'
Roma and the Law: "Of the many popular perceptions of the Roma, surely none is more alienating—for both sides—than the notion that the Roma are associated with criminal behavior. For majority populations, the concept of "Romani criminality" is too often a justification for their continuing indifference or hostility toward the plight of this group. For the overwhelming majority of law-abiding Roma, the burden of the criminal stereotype is one more sign that they can never get an even break in their struggle for acceptance and integration. At the same time, the taboo among many Romani leaders against any discussion of this issue, especially with the majority community, means that the subject has been off-limits even to the fair and balanced inquiries that could help to dispel myths and to establish an objective body of information. Labeling an entire ethnic group as criminal is discrimination. This practice, especially by the media, should be discouraged." Read More
A common misconception about Gypsies is that they have romantic carefree lifestyles and are free to point the wheels of nicely decorated caravans in any direction and travel at will. But many Roma in Europe are persecuted and without rights. Many are forced to live beside the city dump or metal wastelands filled with toxins in extremely poor conditions with no running water – places where nobody else wishes to live – on the outskirts – segregated and rejected by society. In these hovels they are still considered nomadic and yet, have nowhere to go. This is not freedom and far from any imagined romantic carefree lifestyle.

1875, Paris: Great scandal followed Bizet's opera premier of Carmen. Not only was she a manipulative, free spirit who seduces good men at will, but she smoked on stage, got stabbed and died on stage too. Carmen developed a bad reputation overnight. But Controversy creates interest, and Sex and Violence sells tickets – so it was not long before Carmen became the talk of Paris. When the opera premiered in Vienna it became a popular and critical success and went on to become the most popular opera of all time. Fueled by erotic fantasies Carmen's popularity in the collective psyche overshadowed reality, resulting in the Sexy Gypsy Stereotype. Although modern times are closing in fast, in a traditional Roma culture sexual conduct is highly regulated. Further Reading: Gypsy Sexuality
The findings of a recent study by AMALIPE show that many of the myths surrounding Roma lifestyle are outdated. These include marriage age, family size and the practices of arranged marriages and dowries. The following short videos speak of three realities: Sold into Marriage at age 12: Bairam Geta, a young Roma girl, tells her story while taking care of her little one. We Love Each Other: Yanka and Vassil share their views on marriage age, family size, dowries and the outdated practices of arranged marriages as they prepare to celebrate their own wedding. Married to Roma: Mariana is not Roma but she is married to a Roma and says, "Gypsies are better than Romanians"
FOLKLORISM and STEREOTYPES
Uni Graz: Michael Teichmann :'Such a static concept of culture that neglects continual change and leaves outside all kinds of sociological aspects, holds the permanent danger of folklorization, that is the reduction of culture to outer and simplistic patterns or aspects. Artistic discussion on Roma and Sinti is characterised by such folkloristic attempts, especially those cultural areas of widespread public influence such as film, television and photography, which offer very few examples of truly individual perspectives….'
Judith Oakley: Folklore and exotic literature often convey the ideological and the symbolic disorder which the Gypsies appear to represent. The Gypsies are shown in either positive or negative form. Their apparent differences from non Gypsies are elaborated or simply imagined, for example, the belief that the Gypsies are closer to nature, or wild and free.
"When Gypsies are so far away that they verge on myth, they suddenly become alluring: handsome, artistic, living untrammeled lives, symbols of freedom. They are accepted provided they are confined to designated areas and to folklore: music and dance, the circus, caravans in approved sites. The only good Gypsy is the mythical one – the one who does not exist" – Jean-Pierre Liégeois, Gypsies: an illustrated history
Based on the stereotype that Roma children are unteachable, they are often refused admission and are sent to schools meant for mentally disabled. Jud Nirenberg: "According to studies, 65 to 75 percent of Romanies are placed in "special schools" before they reach puberty. Unless we accept that three-quarters of Romany children are born mentally challenged, this clearly shows there is a segregated school system in the Czech Republic. Justifications are not requested, thank you — only rectification. There is only one reason for three-quarters of nonwhite children to be in schools for the mentally challenged and the reason is not a legitimate one."
Systematic Segregation: Mayors and local school authorities in Slovakia and other central and eastern European states still favour segregation of Roma children, despite national policies adopted by the central governments. Until solutions for including Roma children in the national school systems are invented or adopted by governments, many non profit organizations are struggling to give to the Roma children a good education. "There is no country where the situation of the Roma is good." Vladimir Spidla
Lucie Horvathova on Education: "In primary, high-school and University they kept telling me: "You are not Roma anymore because you study." And I used to say, But why? I behave naturally. I go to school and I keep in touch with my family. I know what is going on in the community. We have our customs and I keep them. And the fact that I go to school means nothing. I did not lose my Romanhood. It is part of my life. When everyone starts to regard education in this way – as a Part of the Culture – our culture will evolve.' ~ Lucie Horvathova, See Video
Whether gazing into a crystal ball, reading palms and tea leaves or divining the future with a deck of Tarot cards, the Gypsy Fortune teller is alive and well in everyone's imagination. Though she may be considered a stereotype, with one foot in the real world palm reading happens to be a practical way for many Roma women to earn money, especially if folk believe it is in their power to reveal important future events. But, just as not all Romani women are fortune tellers, not all fortune tellers can read the future. This stereotype will never fade. See : Madame Rudika
Carol Miller Church of Cheese: "Mention Gypsies and one stereotype that comes to mind may be a dancing Spanish Gypsy, a raven haired woman stomping the beat of Flamenco – a Carmen Amaya… Equally famous Gypsy performers like 1940′s era French jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt or the popular modern French based band the Gipsy Kings fit nicely within this stereotype of the Rhapsodic Romani."
Dosta Website
"Another stereotyped view of Roma women depicts them as dirty, having too many usually naked children, being beaten by their husbands and exploited by their wider family who marry and have the first child at age 12. The difficult living conditions which many Roma face have to be taken into account. Lack of utilities such as running water, having no clothes for children, or eventual cases of domestic violence are indicators of poverty but not of 'Gypsyness'."

The Use of Satire in Debunking Stereotypes.
In this video several Gypsy stereotypes are mocked in an effort to debunk them, but there will be some who see it as confirmation of their stereotypes.
Chris Macdonald Dennis: "Stereotypes can be used in a satirical manner in order to try and reveal to the audience that their ways of categorizing the world are not only laughable, but dangerous. There will always be an uneasy line between the laughter of recognition that consolidates a community around shared experiences and values versus the unkind or undiscerning laugh of the outsider who can't sift the grain of truth from a larger stereotype"
3 stereotypes are satirized: *Gypsy Thief, *Roma Illiteracy (thief steals book) *Supernatural abilities (thief magically slows time 700 X

News: Meek Mill Wants His City To Put On For Him, MMG Member Demands Millions
Sunday, Apr 13, 2014 8:40AM
Maybach Music Group's Meek Mill reportedly wants millions from his hometown after accusing the Philadelphia police department of cheating him out of a huge contract.
According to reports, Meek believes a wrongful arrest back in October 2012 set him back at least $2 million.
Meek says he was cuffed for refusing to let cops search -- and he ended up missing a private jet flight to Atlanta. Meek claims he lost $22k on the cancelled jet and a $39K appearance fee for the A-Town party he missed. In the docs, he also claims he took a hit in negotiating a $2 million deal with Puma because all the negative pub from the arrest ... forced him to settle for a mere $650K. Meek is suing the city of Philly for false imprisonment, invasion of privacy ... and most importantly (we suspect) to get back some of that lost dough. (TMZ)
Outside of legal woes, Meek is working on his long-awaited solo album, Dreams Worth More Than Money.
Titled Dreams Worth More Than Money, the new album will be hitting shelves this summer, according to Meek, who was alongside his MMG captain during his Mastermind spectacular held at the Hollywood and Highland Center in Los Angeles. The announcement of the new album arrives as the Philly rapper has been teasing fans with an upcoming track called "She Don't Know," which features Ty Dolla $ign. (REVOLT TV)
Although the project is still in production, the rap star recently revealed it is near completion.
Dreams Worth More Than Money will serve as the followup to Meek's 2012 debut album, Dreams & Nightmare. That LP produced several hits, including the Drake-featured "Amen," the summer sizzler "Burn" (with Big Sean) and street-approved "Dreams and Nightmares." "We like 80% done," Meek says about the new LP, which will feature assistance from some big names like Diddy, Rozay, DJ Khaled, Jadakiss, Timbaland, Swizz Beatz and many more. (REVOLT TV)
While Meek kept mum on the details, he did recently admit the project would drop in the coming months.
"I'm working on my album right now, coming out in the spring," Meek said in an interview. "You know, I dropped an album last year, so, I'm working on my new album. I'm about 70 percent done. I'm working on the 24K headphones [made] by Monster, they're sold out on the Internet right now." (VLAD TV)

I make all these collages by hand. As a history buff as well as a lover of old movies and all types of sports, the key to each picture is the research behind it. Deciding what movies should go with a particular star or what game or series would best reflect a certain sports hero is crucial to a successful collage. I then design each picture individually and lay out the design on the mat. Finally, I cut each mat based on that design and assemble the collage.

I have to say, however, it feels a little silly hold something of this size up to your face and making a phone. It is light enough, but a bit too wide for my hands, making it feel uncomfortable and unwieldy at times. The Galaxy Note measures 5.78-by-3.27-by-0.38 inches thick and weighs 6.28 ounces.The Note has your typical touch-sensitive navigation buttons below the display (Menu, Home, Back Search), a volume rocker and a power button. On the bottom of the Note, you'll find the slot for the S Pen (which we'll cover soon).The Note's aesthetic is pretty similar to the Galaxy S II phones (though larger) with a rectangular shape, piano black bezel, chrome piping and a textured "carbon blue" battery cover.HD Super AMOLED DisplayThe Galaxy Note's 5.3-inch display has a 1280-by-800 pixel resolution. The display technology is HD Super AMOLED display, which isn't to be confused with Super AMOLED Plus, which we saw on the Samsung Galaxy S II line of phones. This is the same display technology seen on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. As I noted in my review of the Galaxy Nexus, the HD Super AMOLED display is based on the PenTile pixel structure in which pixels share subpixels. Galaxy S II phones, on the other hand, have full RGB displays in which the pixels have their own subpixels. HD Super AMOLED displays supposedly have a lower overall subpixel density, reduced sharpness and degraded color accuracy than phones with Super AMOLED Plus displays.When I reviewed the Galaxy Nexus, I noted that I couldn't really see a difference between the two different display types in terms of sharpness. The Galaxy Note also handled image and text rendering well, with sharp, clear text and details on both Web pages and high resolution images. I noticed a little bit of degradation on higher resolution images, particularly when you zoom in, but the image quality definitely looked better than some other phone and tablets we've seen.The main problem I have with the display is that the colors are quite oversaturated. Additionally, skin tones look ruddy and whites have a slight yellowish tint. This is a common problem among AMOLED displays, however, Samsung-made or not. Still, oversaturation isn't always a bad thing. Colors on the Note look rich and bright while blacks are deep.
Using the S Pen
As I mentioned earlier, the S Pen is a far cry from the old styluses you might remember. The Galaxy Note uses a Wacom-made "S Pen" for note-taking and drawing. Wacom pens recognize both right-handed and left-handed users. It also mimics the act of physically taking notes: The harder you press the pen down on the Note, the thicker and bolder your lines will be.

When the twenty-one fever hit the US, one of the highest payouts offered to players was 10 to 1 for the ace of spades plus a black Knave or Jack, which is exactly where its name comes from. In the classic game, a maximum of seven players face the dealer. Every player receives two cards from the dealer and must get a bigger total than that of the dealer.
The aim of the game is to beat the dealer. If a player gets a total which is over 21 it means he has lost. If the dealer loses, he loses to every player. Also, in case no-one loses – or busts – players are given back the bets they placed and the hand takes the name of push. The best hand possible is the hand players refer to as natural or blackjack. This consists of two initial cards whose total value is 21. In this case, the player's win is automatic.
Roxy Palace brings you an online version of this much-loved game that is packed full of features to help you win big in the rooms with plenty of high-stake betting action!

1. Shelby Miller, SP, Cardinals. Miller gave up a lead-off single to Eric Young but proceeded to retire the next 27 Rockies he faced -- 13 via strikeout. Miller is supremely talented and this is unlikely to be the last time he dances with perfection in his career.
2. Jon Lester, SP, Red Sox. Miller was great, but Lester wasn't too bad in his own right. Lester allowed a sixth-inning double to Maicer Izturis, but that was all the Blue Jays were going to get. Lester also struck out five. There were a couple of rough performances after a strong start to 2013, but it looks like Lester is back on track.
3. Lyle Overbay, 1B, Yankees. Overbay had a big performance in the Yankees' 11-6 win over the Royals. He finished the night 4-for-5 with two doubles, a homer, two runs and five RBIs. Overbay isn't having a monster year by any means, but six homers and a .509 slugging percentage is more than we expected from the vet.
3 Down
1. Troy Tulowitzki, SS, Rockies. Tulo was one of Shelby Miller's favorite victims. The All-Star shortstop went 0-for-3 with three Ks. What are you going to do, though, put him right back in your lineup tonight? Yeah, that sounds about right.
2. Everth Cabrera, SS, Padres. Cabrera went 1-for-5 on the night, so it wasn't a complete zero. However, could someone please explain to us why Everth is whiffing four times on the night? Just beat out a ground-ball single, steal second, score on a base hit and everybody's happy.
3. Jeff Samardzija, SP, Cubs. Samardzija may not have had the worst start of Friday night, but his arguably did the most damage considering his fantasy ownership. He struck out five in five innings, but he also allowed five earned runs on eight hits -- including a homer -- and two walks. He'll have some tough starts from time to time, but he's generally going to be a pretty safe start.
Start 'Em
- David Ortiz is 23-for-63 (.359) with nine doubles and three homers against Mark Buehrle. With the way those two have started, don't be surprised if that follows suit tomorrow.
- He doesn't have a home run but Michael Brantley is 10-for-23 (.435) with two steals against Justin Verlander.
- Robinson Cano is 31-for-75 with eight doubles and four home runs against James Shields. Okay, he was starting anyway, but how about Lyle Overbay, who is 12-for-41 (.293) with three doubles and three homers against Shields?
- Victor Marinez is 6-for-16 (.375) with two home runs against Ubaldo Jimenez.
Sit 'Em
- Numerous Blue Jays have struggled against Clay Buchholz. Edwin Encarnacion is 1-for-18 (.056) with three strikeouts against Buchholz. Brett Lawrie is 1-for-13 with two strikeouts and J.P. Arencibia is 0-for-14 with four strikeouts.
- Andy Dirks is 4-for-22 (.182) with three strikeouts against Ubaldo Jimenez.
- He's playing too well to sit, but Alex Gordon is 2-for-12 (.167) against Andy Pettitte.
- Dan Uggla is 1-for-13 (.077) with three strikeouts against Madison Bumgarner.
Call to the 'Pen
Jason Grilli recorded the always awesome one-out save last night, his 14th of the season. If you expected this dominance in preseason you deserve some props. … David Hernandez got the save for the Diamondbacks last night, but that was because Heath Bell had worked on three consecutive nights. … Kyuji Fujikawa made his first appearance since coming off of the DL, tossing a scoreless inning with a hit and a K.

EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSDrugs, Cash, Guns Seized In Bust
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported by: Katelyn Sykes
Reported: Jun. 25, 2014 4:45 AM EDT
South Point , Lawrence County , Ohio
A South Point, Ohio couple are in jail on drug trafficking charges.
According to a news release from the Lawrence County Prosecuting Attorney's Office, officers with the Lawrence Drug and Major Crimes Task Force arrested John Dameron, 73, and Doris Dameron, 63, after they executed a search warrant at their South Point, Ohio home, Tuesday. Officers said John Dameron, with the assistance of Doris, sold oxycodone tablets to a confidential informant. This happened in the days leading up to the execution of the search warrant.
During the search, officers found numerous pills including oxycodone, morphine sulfate, xanax, methadone and suboxone with an estimated street value of $25,000. Officers also found more than $20,000 in cash, one assault rifle, eight handguns and a large quantity of power tools.
John Dameron and Doris Dameron are incarcerated at the Lawrence County Sheriff's Office and are each charged with trafficking in drugs, a felony of the second degree. They will be arraigned Friday morning in Lawrence County Municipal Court.

How CPAs Can Protect Baby Boomers' Nest Eggs from Derailers
by Terri Eyden on printer friendly
- Take a leadership role.
- Use a financial planning system to identify risks and solutions.
- Educate clients' children on the basics of financial planning.
1. Take a leadership role: Although there are many definitions of leadership, the one that stands out for Magson is when a person partners with someone else to achieve a goal that couldn't be achieved on his or her own. In this case, baby boomers partnering with a CPA to achieve their financial goals.
According to the survey, 42 percent of respondents rely on a financial advisor to get their retirement finances back on track. Those who work with a financial advisor are much more likely than those who don't to have a written financial plan (74 percent versus 39 percent).
"CPAs are ranked extremely high as a trusted service provider on surveys, right up there with clergy and police officers and other trust professions," Magson said. "They have a responsibility to leverage that trust by taking a position of leadership and having the courage to address some of these potentially emotional topics with their clients."
Risk Management Conversation
Jeff Magson, vice president of sales and platforms for 1st Global in Dallas, said CPAs should talk to their clients about the following three strategies during a risk management conversation:
1. Accept the risk. Identify the probability and magnitude of the risks - then discuss risk management strategies that make the most sense for the client.
2. Transfer the risk. Determine how that risk can be transferred outside of the household (such as insurance).
3. Combine the two. Develop a plan that combines the other two strategies.
2. Use a financial planning system to identify risks and solutions: Magson said CPAs should use a financial planning tool to show their clients how prepared they are financially to deal with unexpected events that could hamper their savings efforts.
1st Global offers a software program called Sustainable Income Solutions that's specifically designed for CPAs to assess several different risks that can take a toll on a retirement plan, Magson said.
"It's almost like a retirement stress test," he added. "You can toggle up or down and show your clients the things that could go right or wrong in retirement. Some of the risks could be helping out a child, inflation, market risk, or long-term care – the effects of an unexpected illness or injury. CPAs can put these risks in as a one-time expense and show their clients what that expense would do to their retirement nest egg and how much less they could take out each month and not run out of money."
The risk management conversation would be different with a client who has never been affected by a derailer versus a client who has.
"Simply open that discussion by asking this question: Have you ever experienced something like this, or are you close with someone who has? Trying to understand what the client's perspective is of the magnitude or probability of a derailer happening is a good start," Magson said. "If someone has had a derailer in the past, it probably expedites the discussion on solutions because he or she has seen this happen before. Folks who have had an experience with a derailer probably are more likely to talk about it."
3. Educate clients' children on the basics of financial planning: One aspect of the Ameriprise Financial survey that fascinated Magson was how kids can be a potential derailer to their parents' savings. He said CPAs can have a basic financial planning conversation with baby boomer clients and their children to help the kids become better financial decision makers.
"I wouldn't recommend that the CPA approach the conversation with the kids as a way to protect their parents," Magson said. "Instead, I would approach it by saying, 'Your parents, who have done well financially, have asked me to talk to you about how you can make the same types of decisions that they've made so you can be as successful as they are.' Then you would follow the same basic course for your financial planning discussion."
Magson also said the discussion should touch on savings rates and how a portion of income should be saved into an account for emergencies.
"People talk about setting aside three months of expenses as a good savings. That's not a good savings; it's a good start," he said. "People are out of work now for six months to a year. Having a conversation about having liquidity that can sustain a family up to a year makes more sense in this day and age. It's hard to get there; I understand that. But every day that you put something toward that yearlong goal is one more day that you're safe should anything happen."
About the survey:
The Retirement Derailers survey was created by Ameriprise Financial Inc. utilizing survey responses from 1,000 employed and retired Americans ages fifty to seventy. All respondents have investable assets of at least $100,000 (including employer retirement plans, but not real estate). The survey was commissioned by Ameriprise Financial and conducted via telephone interviews by Koski Research from February 21 to February 28.

At Martial Arts and Leadership Academy, traditional martial-arts programs aren't inflexible. They can be suited to a student's goals, whether they're to lose weight and build muscle tone or hone self-defense skills and mental fortitude. To this end, Master Scott Barnabie and his instructors helm multidisciplinary martial-arts programs designed for children or families. They also lead classes in kickboxing, which blends elements of judo, muay thai, karate, and kung fu.
Israeli Krav Maga teaches law enforcement officers, military trainees, and ordinary citizens to use combat skills originally developed for the Israeli defense forces and modified for civilian self-defense. Having trained under krav maga founder Imi Lichtenfeld, Grandmaster Haim Gidon now oversees the instructors he has trained and certified. Some of Gidon's instructors??who have military and law enforcement experience??have been featured in USA Today and on NBC, ABC, CBS and Fox News, and have even trained celebrities such as John Mayer, whose guitar has been known to pick fights with him. These faculty members teach krav maga with a focus on empowering students while helping them to develop awareness, and life-saving skills.
Sifu Bryant Feld brings a lifetime of martial-arts experience to his classes at Moy Yat Ving Tsun Kung Fu. There, he teaches students the ancient art of ving tsun kung fu, a Southern Shaolin style of kung fu most famous for influencing Bruce Lee's own martial artwork. In addition to kung fu, Sifu Feld teaches meditative tai chi and pacific-archipelago combatives, a combination of disciplines from all over Southeast Asia.

Christopher Stevens, 26, was arrested by State Police in early October and charged with three counts of Failure to Provide Proper Sustenance, a misdemeanor.
Police say concerned citizens contacted them regarding the horses on Stevens' property, which appeared underfed.
On September 25, 2013 Stevens agreed to donate his two thinnest horses to Little Brook Farm so they could be provided with immediate care. Based on the condition of one of the remaining horses, and the unhealthy and unsanitary conditions the animals were in, the State Police executed a search warrant on the Stevens property in an effort to relocate the remaining two horses and secure any associated records documenting the animals.

roz & ALI™ Zip Pocket Cargo Capris 4 4
These crops are too stretchy I like the pants overall: they fit well and are very light and comfy, however after you wear them a while, they stretch out until they almost fall off! I'm going to take them in at the waist and hope I can get them on after they are washed and dried. May 24, 2014
Great fit I love the fit of Roz and Ali capris. I bought two pair and love how they look. I only wish they offered more color choices. May 9, 2014
great capris Very comfortable nice looking only wish came in petite! March 21, 2014
Stylish and comfy I like these capris so much that I have them in 3 colors. You definitely won't sacrifice comfort for style. When I first put mine on, they fit tighter than they do at the end of the day...there is some stretching and relaxing of the fit. I don't consider that to be a problem but others may want to back up a size to allow for that. That is why I chose 'fits large' in the fits category. March 2, 2014

So, I found this while trying to find out the finer points of spotpass relay.
Does anyone know of any potential problems that could arise from attempting this?
I'm fed up of missing out on content on MH3U because nobody seems to play it... But I'd rather not bork my laptop.
Le EDIT: I decided to just try it... It works [Everyone who plays MH3U on 3DS should do this.]
Hopefully I reset everything back to what it was.

Bumping because it's pretty cool and could help 3DS playing Egugeekians.

In the aftermath of just two minutes and 18 seconds of a professional mixed martial arts career, "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey proclaimed herself ready, willing, able and destined to be the next Strikeforce women's bantamweight champion.
Miesha Tate, the reigning champion and a veteran of 14 pro fights, didn't see things in quite the same light.
If Rousey's Olympic judo pedigree, utter domination of four opponents and cover girl beauty wasn't enough to make some noise, her equally brash and eloquent words very well would.
"I knew that I could win the title the day that I started and the quickest I could get it, the better," Rousey told the Glendale News-Press before the fight, "and if getting a couple more entertaining interviews than some of the other girls helps me out, then I want to do that."
Tate argued that Rousey hadn't done enough to warrant a title shot and was talking her way into one when former champion Sarah Kaufman, or even contender Alexis Davis, were more worthy of the opportunity.
"At this point this is the biggest, the best fight, the biggest selling point, the most draw, everything else you know in the big picture that is better for women's mixed martial arts in the sense of attention that it's getting," Tate said on a conference call prior to their first bout."So you know I can appreciate that fact, you know, but I'm still not budging on who I really feel earned what, I don't feel that Ronda has really earned her position. You can come in and even if you are one of the best of the sport, it doesn't matter until you really prove it and I don't feel that she's proved that yet."
But the Strikeforce powers that be decided otherwise and the seeds were planted for a build-up and a bout on March 3, 2012 that would forever alter women's MMA.
Tate would be the first to extend Rousey's reign of destruction past a minute. But she would be the fifth to succumb to an armbar and the fifth not to last past the first round, as she begrudgingly tapped out at the 4:27 mark of the opening stanza.
Now, the rolls have reversed.
Rousey is the champion, still unblemished two bouts later at 7-0 with none of her bouts yet to extend past the first round and nary an opponent able to withstand her armbar without submitting.
Tate meanwhile enters the rematch as the challenger, having lost two of her last three bouts, with the loss to Rousey and a defeat to Cat Zingano in her UFC debut sandwiched around a hard-fought stoppage win over Julie Kedzie.
Thus, one could argue it's Tate whose opportunity to challenge for the title is in question.
"I would say that the factors considered in giving her the title shot were definitely outside of her recent athletic performances," Rousey said Thursday at a UFC media luncheon in Los Angeles. "Which is why it's so important to really play up the rivalry part and play up the whole looks part, because, athletically, I mean look at the Vegas odds, they're 10-1. It's hard to sell that, it's hard to sell a 10-1 fight. So you have to look outside the box."
What follows is a fight by fight look at Rousey's path of destruction — one that's as extraordinary as it is redundant in its dominance — leading up to Saturday's rematch with Tate.
Amateur career
Having already at one time represented former UFC champion Bas Rutten, along with Glendale fighters such as Alberto Crane and Karen Darabedyan, fight manager Darin Harvey liked the potential he saw in a young female fighter.
"I believe she has the potential to be the best in the world," Harvey wrote in an email to the Glendale News-Press on Aug. 5, 2010.
A day later, Ronda Rousey made her mixed martial arts amateur debut at a Combat Fight League event in Oxnard. In just 23 seconds, she submitted Hayden Munoz via armbar.
To say the end result was a foreshadowing of events to come would be a gross understatement.
Ronda Rousey's road to UFC 168
Mixed martial arts: Glendale-trained Rousey will defend her UFC belt Saturday in a heated matchup with rival Miesha Tate; here's a fight by fight look at how the 'Rowdy' one got to this point.

Tyler Clippard
From BR Bullpen
Tyler Lee Clippard
- Bats Right, Throws Right
- Height 6' 4", Weight 170 lb.
- High School J.W. Mitchell High School
- Debut May 20, 2007
- Born February 14, 1985 in Lexington, KY USA
[edit] Biographical Information
Tyler Clippard completed his 6th major league season in 2012.
Clippard was chosen by the New York Yankees in the 9th round of the 2003 amateur draft. He was signed by scout Scott Pleis and debuted that year with the GCL Yankees, going 3-3 with a 2.89 ERA. In 43 2/3 IP, he allowed 33 hits and 5 walks while striking out 56. Moving up to the Battle Creek Yankees in 2004, Clippard had a 10-10, 3.44 record with a K:BB ratio of 4.53:1.
The right-hander was 10-9 with a 3.18 ERA for the 2005 Tampa Yankees. Opponents hit .219 against him and he struck out 169 in 147 1/3 IP while walking 34. He also made one appearance each for the Charleston RiverDogs (0-1, 7.50, 10 K in 6 IP) and the Columbus Clippers (one scoreless inning, 2 K). He led Yankees farmhands in strikeouts and finished fifth in the affiliated minor leagues, behind Francisco Liriano, Joel Zumaya, Rich Hill and Chuck James. He also led the Florida State League in strikeouts and was 7th in ERA. He failed to make the FSL post-season All-Star team and Baseball America did not rank him as one of the league's top prospects.
Moving up to AA in 2006, Tyler again led Yankee farmhands in strikeouts (175). He allowed just a .200 batting average and had three times as many strikeouts as walks. Clippard was 12-10 with a 3.35 ERA for the Trenton Thunder. He threw the first no-hitter in franchise history on August 17, shutting down the Harrisburg Senators. He also won 9 straight games at one point, breaking the club record of 8 shared by Tomo Ohka and Carl Pavano. He teamed with Philip Hughes to form the top 1-2 duo in the Eastern League. Clippard again was fifth in the affiliated minors in strikeouts, trailing Yovani Gallardo, Francisco Cruceta, Matt Maloney and Franklin Morales. He led the EL in strikeouts and was 7th in ERA, between Devern Hansack and Chris Begg. Baseball America ranked him as the #10 prospect in the EL between Humberto Sanchez and Jonathan Sanchez.
Clippard began 2007 with the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees. He was 3-2 with a 2.72 ERA in his first 8 starts, striking out 41 in 39 2/3 IP but allowing 40 hits and 17 walks. When Darrell Rasner broke his finger in May, Clippard was called up to New York. He became the 7th rookie to start a game for the 2007 Yankees, following Hughes, Matt DeSalvo, Rasner, Chase Wright, Kei Igawa and Jeff Karstens.
In his major league debut, Clippard allowed one run on 3 hits in 6 innings against the Mets with a second-inning homer by David Wright the sole tally against him. Tyler also doubled off of Scott Schoeneweis in the sixth inning. It was his third plate appearance since high school; the other two had come earlier in the game. Clippard was 3-1 with a 6.33 ERA in six starts for New York, walking 17 in 27 innings. In the minors, he was 4-4 with a 4.15 ERA for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and 2-1, 5.40 for Trenton.
In the winter of 2007, Clippard was sent to the Washington Nationals in return for Jonathan Albaladejo. Tyler spent 2008 with the Columbus Clippers, going just 6-13 with a 4.66 ERA; he was 1-1 with a 4.35 ERA in two major league starts for Washington. He tied Yorman Bazardo and Charlie Haeger for the most losses in the 2008 International League.
Moving to the bullpen in 2009, Tyler was excellent with the Syracuse Chiefs (4-1, Sv, 0.92 in 24 G, 20 H, 42 K in 39 IP). With the 2009 Nationals, he went 4-2 with a 2.69 ERA in 41 games, striking out 67 in 60 1/3 innings and allowing only a .172 opponent average - .122 against lefties.
Clippard began 2010 strong as well, going 7-3 with a 2.15 ERA in Washington's first 40 games. The only other reliever to get 10 decisions in his team's first 40 games was Mike Marshall, also 7-3, back in 1979. To that point, Clippard was 3 for 11 with a double as a batter in the major leagues as well. He finished the season with a record of 11-8 and 1 save in 78 games, leading the Nationals in wins. In 2011, he was only 1-0, but with an excellent 1.75 ERA over the first half and was named the Nats' sole representative at the 2011 All-Star Game. In the game, he relieved Cliff Lee with two on and two out in the 4th inning; the only batter he faced, Adrian Beltre hit a sharp single to left, but the inning ended when Hunter Pence gunned down Jose Bautista at home. Clippard was replaced by Clayton Kershaw to start the 5th, but in the meantime, the National League had scored 3 runs on Prince Fielder's home run in the bottom of the 4th to take a lead they never relinquished; he was thus credited with his league's 5-1 win. He finished the season with a record of 3-0, 1.83 in 72 games, with 104 strikeouts and only 36 walks in 88 1/3 innings. He also gave up only 48 hits, for a tremendous WHIP of 0.838.
Clippard was the Nationals' closer for most of 2012 with Drew Storen on the sidelines and handled the job in a satisfactory manner. In 74 games, he went 2-6, 3.72, but recorded 32 saves and gave up 55 hits in 55 2/3 innings; he walked 29 and struck out 84. He tied J.J. Putz for 7th in the 2012 NL in saves. The Nationals went on to win the first division title in team history and Tyler was used three times in the postseason, giving up a run in 3 innings with no decisions.

Riverview Science Center exhibits its star power
Date: September 16, 2010
by: Loren Mayo | Community Editor
It's the largest facility of its kind at a Florida public school.
The new Riverview High School Science Center and Planetarium opened its doors to the public Saturday, Sept. 11. The center will allow elementary-, middle- and high-school students, as well as community members, to experience a variety of planetarium shows, most at no charge.
"This one-of-a-kind learning facility will allow students to experience a new way of learning about the world around them in a 360-degree theater," said Jason Mocherman, planetarium director and astronomy teacher at Riverview High School. "It will carry on the tradition of bringing quality science programming to Sarasota County students each year."
The school's previous planetarium, which opened in 1969, hosted thousands of students during its four decades. The new building, which cost $1.4 million, features a digital projection system, dynamic lighting, a digital surround-sound audio system and planetarium-style seating. The Riverview High School Foundation contributed approximately $380,000 to fund the purchase of equipment.
The grand-opening event featured the Deep-Sky Observers, who demonstrated sidewalk astronomy, planetarium programs and exhibits from G.WIZ.
$1.4 million — the cost to build the new planetarium
$380,000 — amount of money RHS Foundation contributed to the project

King's family moved from Sacramento to the foothills of Altadena when he was 2. His parents cleaned offices for a living. His father, Ronald, was a hard-fisted drinker who took his anger out on his son. The boy began drinking in junior high school and often got into trouble with authorities.
In 1989, King was accused of attacking the owner of a market in Monterey Park with a tire iron. He pleaded guilty to robbery and received a two-year sentence.
His two friends obeyed orders and got out of the car without incident. King delayed, then got out and acted erratically. He did a little dance, waved to a helicopter whirring overhead and blew a kiss. The cops later said they thought he was on PCP, though he was not.
What happened next was debated and analyzed in granular detail in courts, investigative panels and living rooms for years to come. LAPD officers swarmed King, shot him with Tasers and rained some 50 blows upon him with batons and boots.
PHOTOS: Notable deaths of 2012
A resident named George Holliday caught the beating on videotape, which showed King facedown as he was struck repeatedly by three officers as others stood by watching. Holliday gave the 81-second tape to KTLA, then CNN replayed it the next day, causing a national uproar. The officers involved wrote reports suggesting that the video did not depict the entire confrontation, saying that King rushed at them, swinging and kicking.
The four — Laurence M. Powell, Theodore J. Briseno, Timothy E. Wind and Sgt. Stacey C. Koon — were indicted for the beating on March 15 by a grand jury.
An independent investigative panel led by Warren Christopher simultaneously looked into the issue of brutality by the Los Angeles police. In July, the Christopher Commission released a blistering report, saying "too many patrol officers view citizens with resentment and hostility" and that the problem of "excessive force" was a problem of leadership from the top down. It pushed for sweeping changes, overhaul of the department's disciplinary system and a shift toward community policing. More pointedly, it called for the combative and militaristic chief to step down.
Gates refused, calling the beating an aberration. Tensions rose throughout the city as the officers' trial approached in Simi Valley. When all four were acquitted on Wednesday, April 29, 1992, by a jury with no black people on it, the response in the streets was immediate.
A crowd of black men gathered at Florence and Normandie avenues. Police arrived to disperse them, but they were outnumbered and backed off. Gang members pulled a gravel truck driver named Reginald Denny from his cab and viciously assaulted him for 20 minutes before bystanders rescued him as news choppers filmed from above. Smaller groups formed downtown.
By the end of the night, rioters touched off more than 150 fires, stormed police headquarters and ransacked numerous downtown buildings as sporadic gunfire rang through the streets. Mayor Tom Bradley ordered a curfew, and Gov. Pete Wilson called in the National Guard.
Gates was attending a Brentwood fundraiser to defeat a police-reform ballot measure when the rioting started. Several hours passed before he returned to take charge, and by then his officers were in retreat.
The insurrection and looting spread throughout the city over the next few days. Whole blocks of South Los Angeles burned to the ground. Stores were gutted. Military convoys rumbled up and down the smoky streets.
King made his famous plea before the television cameras on Friday, looking like a terrified child groping for what to say. "Can we all get along? Can we … can we … get along? Can we stop making it horrible for the older people and the kids. I mean, we've got enough smog in Los Angeles, let alone to deal with setting these fires and things. It's not right. It's not right. It's not going to change anything."
With the help of 5,700 National Guard troops, federal agents and Marines, police put the riot down after three days. At least 54 people were dead, and property damage amounted to $1 billion.
The next year, the four officers were tried in federal court for violating King's civil rights. Koon and Powell were convicted and did prison time. Gates stepped down in June. Under heavy pressure from the U.S. Justice Department, the police reforms recommended by the Christopher Commission gradually took effect.
King sued the city and won $3.8 million in damages. He told The Times that after his legal fees, he had $1.6 million or so, with which he bought a house for his mother and one for him. He started a hip-hop label that didn't go anywhere.
He could never find stability in his life. He entered rehab in 1993 after crashing into a wall while drunk. Two years later, he did 90 days in jail after being charged with a hit-and-run for knocking his wife down with his car. He got hooked on PCP for a spell, was shot by pellets riding his bike and had so many encounters with police that in interviews he couldn't recall them all.
"There was the time my car went off the road and came to a stop on a tree," he told The Times in April. "PCP ain't no joke."

This article was previously published under Q109364
Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.
On This Page
When you use the Avg() function in a report to average a set of values, the function uses records that contain zero values in the calculation. In some cases you may not want to include records with zero values in a calculation.
This article includes two examples of how to calculate an average for all the non-zero values in a set by counting the number of non-zero values in the set of values and then using that total with a running sum calculation.
This article assumes that you are familiar with Visual Basic for Applications and with creating Microsoft Access applications using the programming tools provided with Microsoft Access. For more information about Visual Basic for Applications, please refer to your version of the "Building Applications with Microsoft Access" manual.
NOTE: Visual Basic for Applications is called Access Basic in Microsoft Access versions 1.x and 2.0. For more information about Access Basic, please refer to the "Introduction to Programming" manual in Microsoft Access version 1.x or the "Building Applications" manual in Microsoft Access version 2.0.
Example OneIn this example, one text box displays the number of non-zero values, and the other text box displays the average for the set:
Example TwoThis example uses a user-defined function that is the functional inverse of the NullToZero() function in the Northwind sample database:
For more information about the Avg() function, search the Help Index for Avg function.
