Mumps is a viral infection. The infection causes fever and swelling of the parotid glands.
These glands are located on the side of the face, near the ear. Because of the mumps
, this condition is not as common as it once was in the United States.
The virus is usually spread through contact with an infected person's saliva. The mumps virus spreads easily among people in close contact.
These factors increase your chance of developing mumps:
About one-third of cases do not have symptoms. Symptoms often occur 2-3 weeks after exposure to the virus.
Mumps may cause:
Other areas may also be affected, such as:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. The doctor will diagnose the mumps based on these findings.
There is no specific
for mumps. Viruses cannot be treated with antibiotics.
In general, mumps will last about 10-12 days. Try these comfort measures:
Do not give aspirin to children or teens with a current or recent viral infection. Check with your doctor before giving a child aspirin.
In most healthy children, complications are rare. When complications do occur, they include:
Getting vaccinated is the best way to prevent mumps. The vaccine contains live viruses that can no longer cause disease.
The mumps vaccine is usually given in combination with:
The regular schedule for giving the vaccine is at age 12-15 months and again at age 4-6 years.
Ask your doctor if the vaccine is right for you. In general, avoid the vaccine if you:
If you are not vaccinated, avoid contact with someone who has mumps. Discuss the benefits of vaccination with your doctor.

LAWTON, Okla._Police have a man in custody after he held a Lawton woman in her vehicle against her will for more than an hour.
LPD says it's not the first time. The suspect, Gaylyn Martin has allegedly committed similar crimes before.
This kidnapping happened Friday night around 9 o'clock. The victim's husband told police that his wife was texting him saying that she had been taken. Another text indicated her location.
When police saw the texts, they sent officers to Northwest 13th and Andrews.
That's when they saw the victim's car, with Martin and the victim inside. Police arrested Martin at the scene.

ELLENBORO, NC (WBTV) - Rutherford County officials have completed their assessment of the damage in the Ellenboro area and a National Weather Service official confirms an EF-2 tornado touched down there Wednesday.
Barbara Henderson's home she shares with her husband Harold was one of the 10 homes destroyed by the storm.
"Material things don't matter, as long as we have each other," Henderson said Thursday morning.
Henderson says her husband tried to get her to move from their living room but realized the storm was too close and laid his body across hers on her bed. "I remember the wall falling and then just waiting for them to get me out."
Harold escaped but Barbara was trapped for an hour under a wall. Crews had to remove large wooden beams from over the wall to get her out.
"I just kept thinking if it hits my head I'm a goner, but I started saying 'Jesus' and it calmed me down," Henderson said.
She was taken to the hospital then released with a cut on her arm and a few bruises.
Thursday morning she watched from a car as dozens of friends and neighbors worked feverishly to clean up the debris. At one point, all volunteers put down their chainsaws, shovels and hammers to join hands in a prayer. They thanked God for keeping everyone safe.

CDC helps family travelers stay healthy
Most parents of small children spend an inordinately large portion of their day worrying about their children's safety and well-being. Compound this concern with the unfamiliarity that comes with international travel, and a family vacation can go from fun to stressful in moments. Fortunately for anxious adults eager to avoid ailments in their adolescent offspring, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provide a number of helpful tips that can keep a family vacation fun, safe and healthy.
The plane is the first spot where trouble can arise, so parents are recommended to supply pacifiers, earplugs or gum to children to allow them to rest on the flight without the discomfort of having their ears constantly popping.
Parents with small children will definitely want to spend at least a few moments at the beginning of their hotel stay examining their room and assessing any threats for curious children. Making note of exposed plugs, sharp corners or a shaky balcony railing can help establish a safe area for children to play and sleep while staying abroad.
Any parent would also be wise to pack antibacterial soap and sunscreen while staying abroad to prevent both infections from dirty hands and sunburn on bare shoulders.

The MLB channel's 30 Teams in 30 Days got to the Pirates last weekend
I only caught the very end of it, but it seems like I didn't miss much. The supplemental text crawling below the video included "notable additions" such as Joe Beimel and Dusty Brown, and the statistical leaders listed were also a year out of date for a 2012 preview. It's obvious that Bud Selig and MLB don't give a shit about the Pirates, but a gaffe like this in their tv programming seems especially stupid. So, did anyone see the complete 1-hour episode? If so, did MLB get it right elsewhere in the program?

Triple-Dip Recession May Be Dodged Says Report
A new survey suggests Britain may dodge a third period of technical recession - but warns that no one should be complacent.
There is renewed confidence in the construction sector, the report says
Britain is set to avoid the feared 'triple-dip' recession, according to a new survey.
Business confidence has now strengthened to the highest level since the second quarter of 2011, the ICAEW/Grant Thornton Business Confidence Monitor (BCM) report has suggested.
The BCM survey suggests GDP will expand by 0.4% in the first quarter of the year, after the 0.3% contraction in the last quarter of 2012.
ICAEW chief executive Michael Izza said: "There was a risk that, combined with the traditional January blues, the bad weather and some high profile retail collapses, talk of a triple-dip recession could become self-fulfilling.
"These results show that we are set to avoid a third period of technical recession, but no one should be complacent.
"There is only one way out of our economic malaise, and that's to increase our economic output. Such a task isn't going to be easy, or indeed quick."
Firms have seen a 1% increase in staff in the last year and plan to increase headcount by another 1.5% over the next 12 months.
One in 10 firms say the availability of management skills is a greater challenge than a year ago, suggesting that companies may struggle to recruit the right people to lead the recovery.
However, although business confidence appears to be widespread, it is most optimistic in Wales and the South East.
The report added that the construction sector, which has been hit hard in recent reporting periods, has renewed confidence along with IT and telecommunications.
Grant Thornton LLP chief executive Scott Barnes said: "Export growth rose slightly this quarter as the global economy picked up.
"This is coupled with an improvement in both profit and turnover growth, which companies expect to increase in the year ahead.
"Despite a rise in confidence though, companies' modest plans for capital investment are a worry as this is crucial to a strong and sustained recovery."

I don't remember if this has been covered here, but I thought I'd throw it out for discussion. Football fans seem like a surprisingly superstitious bunch and Iowa fans right now are particularly so. I think it's the "Crash Davis" approach. To paraphrase: Iowa fans don't want to mess with the streak. So if Iowa is winning because you're getting laid or you're not getting laid or because you put on women's underwear then you are.
My superstitions around Iowa football are:
1.) I never wear the opposing team's colors the week of the game.
2.) I always wear black and gold (but not Iowa apparel) to work on Friday before a game.
3.) I have two young children that are still using sippy cups. I will not ever combine a red cup with a yellow lid or vice versa. I also never let them wear yellow and red together.
4.) If I'm not at Kinnick, I have to watch the game in the lowest level of whatever building I'm in. AND my wife has to be there. Last year we were at Kinnick for Arizona, jNWU and Minnesota. We watched the Northern Iowa, Iowa State, Arkansas State, Wisky, Michigan State, Indiana and tOSU games from my basement. For the Penn State game we were at my inlaws house. I watched it from their basement. For the Michigan game we had a function for my wife's job. We left early and went to a sports bar where we caught the second half. There was an upstairs bar, but I had to stay downstairs to watch the game.
5.) I live in the northwest suburbs of Chicago but I will never, ever watch Iowa play in Evanston again. I'm convinced that my presence is the reason that Iowa lost football games in 1995, 1997 and 1999 and two basketball games in the [name redacted] era. I was tempted to get tickets this year, but the potential of preserving an undefeated season is more important to me than watching Iowa in person.
6.) My roommate from college lives up in Minneapolis. We have to make sure we talk on the phone before every Iowa game or else we'll lose. The phone is the critical piece. We didn't talk on the phone before the jNWU game because we were both going to be at the game in person and we'd see each other at tailgating.
7.) I have a pair of lucky khaki cargo pants that I started wearing halfway through the 2001 season. I don't wear them in the early fall, but once the weather starts to turn I wear those pants on game days whether I'm going to the game or not.
Anyone else? What are your football superstitions?

Budapest, Hungary
I made this leotard for an aerial hoop competition. Didn't place but I had so much fun. My wonderful teacher covered us all in glitter and gave us chocolate for energy :)
The pattern and design are my own.
Sewing these sequins… omg. This fabric… I was really regretting buying it while sewing. Needles were breaking and flying into my face so I ended up sewing with sunglasses on to protect my eyes. Tip: choose round sequins. These ones are square and have pointy corners which poked into my legs around the legholes. Spent a lot of time unpicking all the sequins from the edges.
I hand sewed on some bra cups from an old bikini. It has flesh coloured fabric at the top and is lined in black fabric. I made my slippers too.
At the end of the comp we all had to get up on stage. Only a week or so earlier they told us we had to wear a long dress (!!!). I didn"t want to spend time/money on a long dress I'd wear once so I just safety pinned some fabric around my waist as a skirt :D See the last pic.
There is a video of the comp: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtAQpHtGZZU

California legislators: What say we ban the NSA in California?
Well this certainly would be interesting. A bipartisan group of California legislators is proposing legislation aimed at running the NSA out of California by essentially smoking them out.
From US News:
A bipartisan team of California state senators introduced legislation Monday that would prohibit the state and its localities from providing "material support" to the National Security Agency.
If the bill becomes law, it would deny NSA facilities access to water and electricity from public utilities, impose sanctions on companies trying to fill the resulting void and outlaw NSA research partnerships with state universities.
Companies with state contracts also would be banned from working with the NSA.
"I agree with the NSA that the world is a dangerous place," state Sen. Ted Lieu, the bill's Democratic co-author, said in a statement. "That is why our founders enacted the Bill of Rights. They understood the grave dangers of an out-of-control federal government."
Lieu said the NSA's surveillance programs pose "a clear and present danger to our liberties."
Read that bold text again and enjoy it….
Lieu is exactly right. And as I've said before (and certainly will again), I'd rather live with the danger that accompanies unbridled liberty than the shackles that accompany an all-powerful government.

"We're finally settling down, we're finally getting over the trauma of losing my sister and now this is bringing it all up again," Phyllis Savenkoff said Saturday.
In May of 2012, Samuel McCauley plead guilty to drunken driving on Interstate 26, which resulted in the death of 72-year-old Eleanor Caperton.
"A victim's sentence goes on forever. You lose a loved one, you don't have an 8-year sentence, so I would like to see Mr. McCauley get his original sentence," Savenkoff said.
The original sentence was to be in jail about 10 years for reckless homicide and felony DUI but what Savenkoff learned this week is that earlier this year McCauley's attorney filed a motion to reconsider the sentence and a judge reduced it to about five years.
"The victims have a right to be informed of and to attend any proceedings that the defendant has the right to attend. So therefore, I feel my family's bill of rights has been violated by Judge Houston," she said.
News 2 reached out to the judge and McCauley's attorney and did not get in touch with them during weekend hours but if Savenkoff and the solicitor succeed with a new filed motion they'll be in court together again.
"Hopefully this case will be re-opened and the family can be there to say our peace," Savenkoff said.

Do Me A Little, About Newlywed Mormons, Will Play LaMaMa's First Floor Theatre
By Andrew Gans
Producers Nicholas Kohn and Robert Earle Jones will present the world premiere of Marissa Kohn's Do Me a Little, as part of the 2012 New York International Fringe Festival.
Performances at the First Floor Theatre at LaMaMa are scheduled for Aug. 12 at noon, Aug. 15 at 9 PM, Aug. 23 at 2 PM, Aug. 24 at 8:45 PM and Aug. 25 at 4:45 PM.
The cast will feature playwright Kohn as Mandy opposite Trey Gerrald as Brigham. David Alpert directs.
Inspired by true events of Kohn's own life, the show, according to press notes, "follows Brigham and Mandy, two wide-eyed newlywed Mormon virgins as they celebrate their wedding night in the unintentionally kinky pirate suite at the 'World Famous (in Utah)' Honeymoon House. But a massive secret is about to come out that will shatter the religious rose-colored glasses they've both worn for their entire lives. Is their relationship a total lie? Will they stay married just to retain their status in a potentially bogus religion? Will they show you their magic Mormon underwear?"
The First Floor Theatre at LaMaMa is located at 74A East 4th Street (between 2nd and The Bowery). For ticket information visit www.domealittleplay.com.

MEDFORD, Mass. (AP/MyFoxBoston.com) - A Massachusetts state representative has been convicted of assaulting his former girlfriend and been sentenced to six months in jail.
Democrat Carlos Henriquez of Boston was convicted Wednesday in Cambridge District Court of two assault and battery charges. He was acquitted of a third assault and battery charge, as well as larceny and witness intimidation charges.
Multiple officials are calling for Henriquez to resign, including Boston Mayor Marty Walsh and Governor Deval Patrick.
"A jury has convicted Rep. Henriquez and a judge has sentenced him to serve jail time. In light of this, I would encourage Rep. Henriquez to resign, in the best interests of the constituents he represents," Walsh said in a statement Wednesday afternoon.
Patrick also called for Henriquez to step down, saying in a statement that, "In light of today's jury verdict, Representative Henriquez should immediately resign from the House."
The woman told police Henriquez punched and choked her.
Prosecutors say Henriquez picked up the woman in Arlington and assaulted her inside the car, grabbed her cellphone, and drove into Boston, where she jumped out of the vehicle and got help from police.
Henriquez's lawyer told jurors that the woman's accounts of events were inconsistent and there was no corroboration of her account.

Austin Film Festival Screenplay & Teleplay Competition Deadlines Approach
Have you already submitted your polished script to the Nicholl Fellowship? Did you miss that May 1 deadline and wish you had a few more days and another chance? Then you should consider submitting to the Austin Film Festival Screenplay & Teleplay Competition. Screenplay awards for Drama and Comedy category each include $5,000 plus reimbursement for round-trip airfare (up to $500) and hotel (up to $500) for the conference and festival. Teleplay awards for Sitcom Spec, One-Hour Spec, Sitcom Pilot and One-Hour Pilot each include $1,000, plus reimbursement for round-trip airfare (up to $500) and hotel (up to $500) for the conference and festival.
AFF's Screenplay & Teleplay Competition works to expose new writers to the industry. The competition invites several writers, producers, managers and agents to read and judge the semifinal and final rounds of the competition. The deadlines for submission are as follows:
- Screenplay Regular Deadline: May 15th ($40)
- Screenplay Late Deadline: June 1st ($50)
- Teleplay Deadline: June 1st ($30)
Note: you'll have to add $5 to your entry for an online script submission.
Austin Film Festival is unique in being one of the few film festivals to put a strong focus on screenwriting (Nantucket is the other that comes to mind). AFF runs a concurrent screenwriting conference for the first four days of the festival that includes panels, workshops and roundtable discussions with several well-known professional screenwriters. This year's schedule has not been announced yet, but here's a small sample of events from 2011′s conference:
- The Art of Storytelling with John Lasseter (Chief Creative Officer for Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios), Caroline Thompson ("Edward Scissorhands", "The Nightmare Before Christmas"), and Hart Hanson ("Bones", "The Finder")

So, apparently the other night, possibly while high, I managed to post like 400 word of this thing. So lets try it again.
With his victory over Lyoto Machida, Jon Jones has had arguably the best single year run in the history of MMA. He defeated 4 top 10 fighters with very little difficulty. We as fans got all excited on Saturday when someone actually tested his skills for a full round. His evisceration of Ryan Bader, Shogun Rua, Rampage Jackson and Lyoto Machida may never be matched in modern MMA, where elite fighters seem to rarely fight three times a year. With his monumental 2011 in the books, I wanted to look back at the 10 best single years in the history of MMA.
10. Fedor Emelianenko 2004
Victories: Mark Coleman, Kevin Randleman, Naoya Ogawa, Antonio Rodrigo Nogeuira 2 and 3
Coming into 2004, Fedor was well on his way to being recognized as the best heavyweight mixed martial artist of all time. He was the undisputed Pride Heavyweight champion, and virtually undefeated. He would enter Pride's 2004 Heavyweight Grand Prix as the favorite, and would not disappoint. He began the tournament in April with a quick armbar over a still relevant Mark Coleman in just over 2 minutes. He would move on to the quarter finals to face Coleman's HammerHouse teammate (and also still kind of relevant) Kevin Randleman, fresh off an upset of Mirko Cro Cop.
Randleman came in obviously as the heavy underdog, but he came out firing. Early in the first round, Randleman took Fedor down, and in a scramble, took the Russian's back and then dropped this crazy shit on the MMA world
Literally, any other person probably would have been out, but not Fedor. Within less than a minute, Fedor would sweep the former Ohio State wrestler and end up catching him with a kimura. This victory would go down as one of the most brilliant victories in Emelianenko career.
The victory over Randleman would lead to a fight with 7 -1 judoka Naoya Ogawa in the semi finals. Fedor would show that Ogawa wasn't even on his level with a quick armbar, earning a spot in the finals in a rematch with Antonio Rodrigo Nogeuira.
The second meeting between the two heavyweight legends would be ruined later that night when an accidental clashing of heads opened a huge cut on Fedor's head and the fight being declared a no contest. They would meet on New Years Eve for not only the Heavyweight GP title, but the Pride world title as well. In a three round battle, Fedor would outlast Nogeuira to solidify his standing as the best heavyweight in the world.
9. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira 2001
Victories: Volk Han, Hiromitsu Kanehara, Valentjin Overeem, Gary Goodridge, Mark Coleman, Heath Herring
In 2001, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira was just in the nacasance of his MMA career. The 25 year old Big Nog entered the year already being in the Finals Block of the RINGS King of Kings 2000 32 man tournament. In a night where he would fight 3 times, Nogeuira would defeat Sambo fighter Volk Han, catch wrestler Hiromistsu Kanehara, and then a victory over the less successful Overeem, Valentjin Overeem. Soon after winning the tournament, Nogeuira would move over to Pride and beginning to estabilsh himself as the undisputed number 1 HW in the world. He would win his Pride debut over Gary Goodridge, and then meet up with reigning Pride GP 2000 winner Mark Coleman. Big Nog would submit the former UFC champion and earn the unofficial title of #1 heavyweight in the world. He would face Heath Herring in November of that year to win the inagural Pride Heavyweight title and cap off perhaps the best year of Nogueira's storried career.
8. Dominick Cruz 2010
Victories: Brian Bowles, Joseph Benavidez, Scott Jorgensen
One of the UFC's most underrated champions, Dominick Cruz put together a career year in 2010. Having earned a title shot with a victory over Joseph Benavidez in 2009, Cruz would win the batamweight title when Brian Bowles quit on his stool after suffering a broken hand during the first round. Cruz would defend the title via a close split decision rematch with Joseph Benavidez in August of that year. At WEC 53, the final show in the company's history, Cruz would take another decision from honeybadger like Scott Jorgensen and win the very first UFC bantamweight title. With 3 victories over top 10 opposition, and the very first batamweight title in UFC history(since defended twice) Cruz helped solidify himself as a force and P4P fighter in 2010.
7. Lyoto Machida 2009
Victories: Thiago Silva, Rashad Evans, Shogun 1
Machida in 2009 was a puzzle wrapped in a riddle wrapped in an enigma. No one could seem to figure out how to defeat the man, as evident at his 13 - 0 record entering 2009. He would begin the year meeting top 10 ranked and also undefeated Thiago Silva. In the dying seconds of the 1st round, Machida would drop the Brazilian wrecking machine and finish him with only 1 second left on the clock. Based on this impressive victory, and his undefeated record, Machida was matched up with newly minted Light Heavyweight Champion Rashad Evans.
The two undefeated fights would meet at UFC 98 (billed with something like "Someone's O has got to go." I can imagine Goldie pitching this one in Dana's office in my head, I swear). Machida would introduce the world to The Stanky Leg, when he caught Rashad with a series of punches against the cage in 2nd round to win the title. With that, Joe Rogan proclaimed us in the "Machida Era".
5 months later, Machida would match up with former Pride GP winner Shogun Rua. Over 5 rounds at UFC 104, fans were treated to a technical masterpiece between the two Brazilians, where Machida would win a razor close and controversial decision over Rua. Despite the controversial nature of the victory, Lyoto KOed two top 5 opponents, and put on a great fight with a MMA legend. Thus far this year was the highlight of Machida's career, going 1-3 since his victory at UFC 104
6. Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic 2006
Victories: Isuhisa Minowa, Hidehiko Yoshida, Wanderlei Silva, Josh Barnett
Coming into 2006, Cro Cop was starting to look like the Dan Marino of MMA. He was exciting, won some big fights, but could never seem to win a championship. He had lost to Fedor Emelianeko in 2005, and had dropped a fight to Mark Hunt on New Years Eve. He entered the Pride 2006 Open Weight Grand Prix hoping to finally break the curse.
He began the tournament over future Super Hluk tournament champion Isuhisa Minowa. In a one sided affair, Filipovic crushed the Japanese sensation in just over a minute. This would earn him a spot versus former Olympic Judo gold medalist Hidehiko Yoshida. Cro Cop would defeat the Japanese star, forcing him to submit due to having his leg kicked into a living death over the span of 7 minutes.
Advancing to the semi finals held in September of 2006, Cro Cop would square off with Pride 205 lbs champion Wanderlei Silva. These two feared strikers would not disappoint, but in one of the final highlights of his career, Cro Cop knocked out Silva with a vicious left high kick. This would allow him to move on to face Josh Barnett that same night for the GP title. Cro Cop would finally fulfill his destiny when he shattered Barnett's orbital bone to earn a stoppage in the first round. This would be the pinnacle of Filipovic's career, as he would never again live up to these high standards.
5. Chuck Liddell 2006
Victories: Randy Couture 3, Renato Sobral, Tito Ortiz 2
2006 was easily the peak of Chuck Liddell's career. He was finally the UFC Light Heavyweight champion, and had defended it once since defeating Randy Couture. He would enter 2006 with the end of the storied trilogy between himself and Randy Couture. When they met at UFC 57, it was one of the most anticipated fights in the history of the company. Chuck would make relative short work of Randy, KOing him in the 2nd round and vaulted himself further into the MMA stratosphere. He would follow up this victory with a rematch with Renato "Babalu" Sobral.
Babalu would enter the fight with Liddell at UFC 62 on a 10 fight winning streak, including victories over Shogun Rua, Jeremy Horn, Jose Landis-Johns, and Chael Sonnen. None of this seemed to matter, as Chuck landed a huge uppercut that left Sobral in a pile on the mat at 1:35 of the first round.
Chuck would end the year with another huge rematch, this time against bitter enemy Tito Ortiz. Tito came into the fight riding a 5 fight streak since he lost to Chuck at UFC 47. The rematch would be the biggest fight in the UFC's history at that point, and Chuck would not disappoint, finishing Ortiz via TKO in the 3rd round. Despite maybe not a more impressive stretch as say Nogeuira in 2001, the historical significance of Chuck's fights in 2006 propelled him to the number 5 spot.
4. Takanori Gomi 2005
Victories: Jens Pulver, Luis Azeredo, Jean Silva, Tasuya Kawajiri, Luis Azeredo, Hayato Sakurai
UFC fans may know Takanori Gomi as that hyped up Japanese fighter who likes to come into the Octagon and do a poor man's imitation of Dan Henderson. Constantly looking to land the fastball of an overhand right, he has not looked good in any of his appearances in the Octagon. But once upon a time, in the mythical land of Japan, The Fireball Kid was arguably the best 155 pounder in the world. He would begin his 2005 on New Years with a huge KO victory over former UFC lightweight champion Jens Pulver. He would meet up with Chute Boxe fighter Luis Azeredo in May of 2005, where Gomi was getting pummeled until landing a left/right hook combo that caused the Brazilian to drop like his strings were cut. Gomi apparently didn't think he had had enough, as he continued to try and hammer Azeredo even as the ref and Pride officials tried to hold him back.
7 weeks later, Gomi was back in the Pride ring (thank you no commissions in Japan) to fight another Chute Boxe opponent in Jean Silva, taking a decision. 8 weeks after that, Gomi would enter the Pride Lightweight Grand Prix looking to be crowned the first lightweight champion in the company's history. He would meet the Shooto champion Tasuya "Crusher" Kawajiri in the first round of the tournament. They put on what was voted the Pride 2005 fight of the year, which Gomi won via a first round rear naked choke. That same night, Gomi would rematch Luis Azeredo, roughly 15 weeks after they had first met. Gomi would win this fight via decision, earning his spot in the tournament finals on New Years eve.
In the finals, he would square off against former teammate and Japanese MMA legend Hayato Sakurai. Sakurai was in the midst of a career rival since moving to the US to train with Matt Hume, and this was considered an epic fight. Gomi would waste little time, KOing Sakurai in 3:56 of the very first round. With this victory he would become the first Pride lightweight champion, and can be considered the best stretch of Gomi's entire career.
3. Dan Henderson 2011
Victories: Rafael Cavalcante, Fedor, Shogun
Dan Henderson is like a good bottle of scotch, he just becomes more awesome and intoxicating as he gets older. Despite already having a legendary career, 2011 has arguably been his best. After defeating Babalu Sobral in Dec of 2010, Hendo would meet up with Strikeforce's 205 lbs champion Rafael "Feijao" Cavalcante in March. Henderson didn't disappoint, winning his first championship since winning the Pride 205 championship back in 2007 by loading up the H Bomb and dropping Cavalcante face first, Rick Flair style on the mat.
After his victory, as opposed to defending his title, Henderson decided he wanted to move up to heavyweight to meet fellow Pride legend Fedor Emelianeko in July. In a crazy back and forth first round, Henderson would show that nothing could stand up to the power of his right hand, when he slipped out the backdoor on Fedor, took his back and landed a couple of punches, being the first man to stop the MMA legend via strikes.
With his stock at an all time high, Hendo came back to the UFC after leaving for Strikeforce in Dec of 2009 to face another Pride legend in Shogun Rua. As most MMA fans are well aware of, Henderson and Shogun put on a fight for the ages, arguably the best fight of all time to cap of Henderson's impressive and epic 2011. Two finishes, one over a former cyborg, and an all time classic fight is enough for him to crack the top 3.
2. Mauricio Rua 2005
Victories: Hiromitsu Kanehara, Quinton Jackson, Antionio Rogerio Nogueira, Alistair Overeem, Ricardo Arona
Shogun's 2005 was what once was the epitome of a great single year in MMA history. He would start his 2005 with a victory over former pro wrestler Hiromitsu Kanehara via brutal KO. (Oh Pride head stomps, you were vicious but effective). Eight weeks later, Shogun would enter the Pride Middleweight (205 lbs) GP with a first round destruction over the heavily favored Rampage Jackson.
Following the first round upset of Jackson, Rua moved on to face Antonio Rogerio Nogueira where they put on one of the best fights in MMA history at Pride Critical Countdown 2005. Shogun would manage to win a decision over the BJJ black belt, moving on to meet Alistair Overeem in the semi finals. Rua would continue his Cinderella story, defeating the Dutch kickboxer via TKO in the first round, to move onto the finals.
In the finals he would meet Ricardo Arona, of the rival Brazilian Top Team. Arona had defeated Shogun's Chute Boxe teammate Wanderlei Silva earlier that evening, and Shogun had a taste for revenge. In under 3 mins, the then 24 year old Rua would vault himself from virtual unknown to a top 3 Light Heavyweight in the world when he stopped Arona with hammerfists.
1. Jon Jones 2011
Victories: Ryan Bader, Shogun Rua, Rampage Jackson, Lyoto Machida
What else needs to be said. Jon Jones is a monster, and could potentially be a dominant force for the next 10 years in this sport. This will be the year people will always talk about when we discuss the single best year a MMA fighter has ever had.

Matt Thorson
TowerFall is the OUYA's killer app: The four-player Smash Bros.-style take on archery is that good
I stumbled upon TowerFall at an IGN event for independent games, and the four-player title had attracted a large crowd. TowerFall is a local multiplayer game where up to four players square off on the same screen, trying to shoot arrows at each other while collecting power-ups and avoiding the fire of others. It's fast, easy to understand, enjoyable instantly, and makes an ideal spectator sport. I fell in love after my first few rounds.
It's also launching exclusively on the OUYA on June 25.
A reason to buy an OUYA
"I think it's just risky to do a local four-player game these days," TowerFall creator Matt Thorson told me when I asked if launching first on the OUYA was a risky move. The game will support the official OUYA controller, and Xbox 360 controllers. There is no online play, at least not yet.
"I'm mostly worried about the anonymity of online play, and how transient online interactions are," Thorson explained after telling me the technical problems are fixable. "Right now the game is really meant to be played with friends in the same room."
TowerFall erupts into a sort of divine chaos when four people play in the same room. You have to control your supply of arrows, pick your shots, grab the power-ups, pay attention to what everyone else is doing, and react accordingly.
Anyone can pick up a controller and play, the game is fun instantly, but it takes a while to learn how the game's systems work together, and how to use them to your advantage. You'll find yourself cheering, or howling in frustration. It's Super Smash Bros. with a lower barrier of entry, but combat that's just as deep.

Hi: 21° Lo:9°
By <b>Ian Dipple Friday 11 April 2014 Updated: 11/04 11:40
REDDITCH United could be put up for sale within weeks if concrete proposals are not forthcoming for the future development of the club.
Chairman Chris Swan issued the warning after it was revealed ambitious plans to relocate The Reds to a new stadium in Washford and build housing on their current Valley Stadium home were dead in the water.
A panel of councillors set-up to scrutinise the executive committee's decision not to proceed with the £3.3million project, has reported it is unable to overturn the ruling but has asked officers to look at how the club could be expanded at its present location.
Speaking to the Standard Mr Swan said the club lost £5,000 last month and £60,000 a year which he was putting in out of his own pocket but that would not continue indefinitely. He added he would review the situation at the end of the season and if talks did not result in firm proposals for a way forward he would pull out of the club and put it up for sale, putting a major question mark over its future.
"We are willing to have those talks because we've got to look at everything because the club is not viable unless something is done. What can't happen is it becomes the talking shop it has been for the last three years, things have got to happen pretty quickly or there will be consequences for the club," he said.
"It can't just be platitudes about engaging with the club or welcoming dialogue, it's got to be something that makes a difference. We need something very concrete, very quickly."
Coun David Bush, who chaired the review panel, said the financial case would only stack up if the council agreed no affordable housing would be provided on the site, something the ruling Labour group were unlikely to agree to and it may also not get through the planning system.
"There is a covenant in place on Terry's Field but as long as there was adequate public access or use of the facilities it would still be in keeping with the spirit of the covenant."
Coun Carole Gandy said the relationship between the council and the club had broken down and urged them to re-open talks as soon as possible.
"I don't think this means we should shut the door completely on what we want to do between us and Redditch United and continue having a flourishing football club."

G-LEC LED Curtain System
The G-LEC LED Curtain should not be confused with a video wall. The G-LEC system utilizes clear acrylic rods to house the LEDs, to give a resolution of 2.4" between pixels as standard, although custom resolutions can be made to order. The resulting transparency and low wind resistance make the system work for architectural use as well as for the theatre, concerts, and corporate events. With the G-LEC Curtain you can place performers both in front of and behind the curtain, using it as a scrim or scenic element.
G-LEC's LED Curtain is making appearances here in the US, most recently winning Honorable Mention at the ETS-LDI trade show and used to good effect in the recent Jay-Z concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
G-LEC stands for "grid-type LED curtain," as the arrangement of the pixels are not spread over the complete surface, like a video screen. The pixel spacing is above average and the arising spaces are not black but transparent, creating a scrim-like effect. The arrangement gives a good view onto everything that is placed in the background. Respectively, the spaces are sufficient to allow light that is placed behind, the possibility to shine forward through the G-LEC system.
G-LEC is based upon the principle of the additive mixture of colors. Every single pixel consists of three high-brightness LEDs of the primary colors red, green, and blue. The pixel spacing of 60mm (2.4") is relatively large. They are vertically arranged in transparent acrylic tubes. These tubes also have a spacing of 60mm (2.4") between them. So, these spaces between the pixels are not black, as according to conventional LED screens, but have a 70% transparency.
The G-LEC system consists of the tubes, the support frame, and the remote PC-rack for control. The current restriction of length is 100 meters (328') between the PC-racks and the frames. The control of the PC-racks can be done via DMX. The standard system 12G, consists of 12 frames and one PC-rack. (The standard systems are 12G, 24G, 36G, and 48G. Systems, whose number of frames is not divisible by 12, are possible but not standard.) In each frame, there are 30 tubes, which have a spacing of 60mm (2.4") between each other. In each tube, there are 16 pixels, which also have a spacing of 60mm (2.4") between each other. You can arrange the frames in any manner desired. The smallest system that is possible consists of two frames and a length of cable. The maximum run of one control cable is limited at six frames.
Control from a console requires at a minimum 20 channels, 10 per scene. The system consists of two scenes, each with the capability to store up to 70 images or animations. In addition to the stored images and animations, the system will accept a real-time video feed. Controlled by DMX512, the G-LEC Curtain enables you to show and control two graphic streams simultaneously as standard, so you can combine video with text or still images with animated graphics. A DMX channel determines the total brightness of a scene. Further channels are used for controlling the direction of an animation and its speed. The frame rate for the system is 25 fps.
All the images and animations are stored in the PC-racks. Nearly any format can be used as long as it is adjusted to the right size. JPG or BMP formatted images and QuickTime and animated GIF files are the preferred format for the data. For the production of video you should choose the highest optical resolution as possible in the original format.
The G-LECs power draw is about 150W/sqm. So, a 12G-system of 22sq m (24sq yd) will work with a 16A, 230V connection. The system also works fine with 120V, 60Hz power. The curtain weighs 10kg/sq m (22lbs/sq yd.)

Low-lying dry ice effects have always been difficult to produce well using chiller machines — but now, users of High End Systems' F100 fog generators can now attach the Cirrus Lowsmoke from The Effects Company to their machines. This is a sophisticated but user-friendly system which produces thick white low-lying fog that, most importantly, stays low, and gives a very close simulation to dry ice. It is small (14" × 7 1/2" × 11") and is very economical to run, using easily obtainable CO2 cylinders — a 34kg cylinder lasts 22 minutes, and can be controlled via 0-10V standard timer controller or DMX control. Multiple units can be daisy-chained together for larger area coverage. There is no need to pre-chill, as the system is always ready and dry running is ensured via moisture removal in the machine. The F100 and Cirrus units are linked together both physically and electronically — so both work together, with just one start/stop function. To complete the system a 20 liter remote feeder tank is available (with auto fluid level sensing) and a manifold system can be installed to join up to four CO2 cylinders together.

Lighting & Electronics expands its product range with the development of the C-clamp lineup. This new lineup includes the PipeDream™, Get-A-Grip™, and HangTuff™ clamps. All three clamps have a one-piece innovative design that is manufactured from a strong lightweight aluminum alloy. The Get-A-Grip and HangTuff are universal designs rated for loads up to 500lbs, and is ideal for any fixture securing application. The PipeDream is designed for those lighter duty situations. The HangTuff, unlike other safety clamps during an accident, will not only keep the fixture from falling with its built-in safety cable, but is designed to also keep any broken pieces of the clamp from falling as well.

Wildwood Mayor Ernie Troiano Jr. and city commissioners listened to those for and against beach badges at a meeting Friday afternoon, before agreeing that residents will have the final say.
"This is not a dyed in the wool, cut in stone decision. This basically is today, we are going to put it out to the public and let the public put their input in," said Mayor Troiano.
The mayor says beach fees would offset budget shortfalls and take some of the burden off of taxpayers.
Residents who share Troiano's view, say the fees will keep taxpayers from paying millions in beach maintenance.
"You can't expect me to be happy with me paying 1.7 million for a beach for other people to use just cause its free. Its not free to us," said Wildwood resident Gerard Vessels.
But opponents, say the fees will be a devastating blow to the city's tourism industry.
"We're going to kill the goose that laid the golden egg and you're going to see a standard of life change for resident, along with vacationer along with businessman," said Wildwood business owner Joe Salerno.
The Greater Wildwoods Tourism Improvement and Development Authority opposes the fee saying in a released statement that it would "not be advantageous and in the best interest to our overall tourism economy."
The authority added that it will pay Wildwood nearly $250,000 this season alone, from funds collected through a tourism assessment paid by hotel and motel visitors, that in turn will offset beach maintenance.
The city would have to forfeit those funds if a beach fee was imposed.
But Troiano says they are still looking for other ways to generate revenue.
"We are not leaving any stone unturned. We're looking at every sense of revenue to create monies to not to burden the taxpayer."
The commissioners voted to allow the city clerk to organize a special citywide vote this March.

3 Years, 6 Mil for Huff?
For that price, we certainly should have brought him in. Was it our fear of former Raiders that wear #24 that scared us off? A former number 7 overall pick with really good ball skills...would have been a nice addition and, worst case, good competition to a position we clearly think needs it.

The dumpster behind an apartment building on Nelson Street in Hartford is unsightly to look at and smells terrible, according to residents and neighbors.
Eyewitness News found animals running through the trash, prescription pills were spread out on the pavement and discarded furniture was on the ground was found near the dumpster at 139 Nelson St.
"You got raccoons running around here, and kids play here too," said one resident who would not give their name for fear of being evicted.
Residents of the complex admit that they do not have a lot of money, but they would appreciate the garage being taken care of.
"Put it like this, you paying 800 something dollars a month," said one resident. "Do you wanna live like this?"
Eyewitness News asked New Era Management why they have not picked up the garage regularly.
"And there's been a problem I guess with the collection of the garbage," said an official with New Era Management. "That's something that we're handling right now"
The New Era Management manager said the dumpster has been idle for a week and the problem is the residents throwing garbage in the parking lot.
"We've been doing the best we can to get that done as quickly as possible," he said.
The manager assured Eyewitness News that the problem with the dumpster will be taken care of in the next day or two.

Just received and responded to yearly survey about how the team was meeting my expectations. Wondering what you guys think. In response to the prompt 'please describe what it's like to be a wizards fan in 1-2 sentences', this is my response:
Being a wizards fan is like being a part of any family. Wall and Beal are the bright kids who you hope turn out well; Ariza is the boyfriend who's nice but doesn't seem right for your sister. Wittman is the inept guy who for all his positives seems like he belongs in a less prominent role. Nene, Booker, are the sickly grandparents. Ernie is the abusive father that is hurting everyone, and Ted is the victim who just can't seem to get rid of the husband even though he's ruining the family.

Mother says baby was failed 'abominably' by hospital
The Coroner's court heard that Hayley underwent palliative surgery at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast weeks after she was born. She was then flown to Birmingham Children's Hospital for corrective heart surgery.
Her mother, Paula Stevenson, who is from Northern Ireland but now lives on Australia's Gold Coast, said the operation was a success and Hayley was transferred to the hospital's Paediatric Intensive Care Unit, where she spent 17 days before being moved on to a normal ward.
On 9th November an X-ray revealed that Hayley's right lung had collapsed. She was given physiotherapy the following day but on the morning of 11th November both lungs collapsed and she went into cardiac arrest.
She was pronounced dead after a team of doctors spent 20 minutes trying to save her, the inquest heard.
During the hearing Ms Stevenson said her child had been failed "abominably" by medical staff on ward 11, describing her experience as "brutal".
She said staff at the hospital neglected Hayley, "dumped" her at the end of a ward and ignored the family's concerns about her breathing as she recovered from her surgery.

When Gil wrote the arrangement of "I Loves You, Porgy," he only wrote a scale for me to play. No chords. And that ... gives you a lot more freedom and space to hear things.He was paying attention to Russell, but he clearly wasn't dominated by him.
When you go this way, you can go on forever. You don't have to worry about changes and you can do more with the [melody] line. It becomes a challenge to see how melodically inventive you can be. When you're based on chords, you know at the end of 32 bars that the chords have run out and there's nothing to do but repeat what you've just done—with variations.
I think a movement in jazz is beginning away from the conventional string of chords.... there will be fewer chords but infinite possibilites as to what to do with them. Classical composers—some of them—have been writing this way for years, but jazz musicians seldom have.
When I want J.J. Johnson to hear something ... we just play the music over the phone. I did that the other day with some of Khachaturian's Armenian scales; they're different from the usual Western scales. Then we got to talking about letting the melodies and scales carry the tune. J.J. told me, "I'm not going to write any more chords." And look at George Russell. His writing is mostly scales. After all, you can feel the changes.
I'd be willing to wager the album would have been quite similar if Russell had never written a line.I doubt that's true. I'm familiar with the challenges to George's claims, just as I'm familiar with people who insist that, without Bill Evans, Miles would nonetheless have played "Blue in Green." There are plenty of academic theories speculating about a lot of different things. I favor firsthand accounts.
