Sony have announced some updates to the firmware for both the PlayStation 3. The big feature is upscaling of PS2 games and DVD movies to 1080p, but it "also gives PS3 owners more flexibility to enjoy their digital entertainment content where they want to" by using a PSP to watch your music, movies and photos. It might be where you want to, but I suspect it's not how or when you want to (at least until someone hacks it so you can do it on your PC and other devices). The press release has some more information.

These five crazy Russians drove some 5,000 plus kms to go to a car show! Not any car show, but our BMW United 5.0 car show. Otherwise known at Welt 5.0.
For the last five years every spring we hold a car show in front of the BMW Welt. The organizers of this car show are known at the Munich Stammtisch. We are basically a small group of BMW car lovers(1er's/2er's & 3er's). Each year the show gets bigger and bigger! Last year … CONTINUED
Every year some friends of mine (Team Orga) organize a BMW 1er and 3er car show. In past years we always held the show(s) at the BMW Welt. But last year we simply outgrew that parking lot. So this year's show was held at a much larger parking lot. Metro is kind of the German version of Price Club.
We even had some crazy BMW lovers(nuts) come all the way from Moscow, Russia! Some 5K kms one way! Now that's some RESPECT! … CONTINUED

Some of the most pristine E30 M3s on the East Coast juxtaposed by BMW's newest offerings, … CONTINUED
It was streets ahead of its time at launch and maintains an ageless glow to this day, yet a glance at the calendar reveals the disarming truth: 25 years have passed since the BMW 8 Series was presented to the world at large for the first time.

"Man, GSP is a great wrestler, he is a great jiu jitsu fighter. He is a good striker, not at Anderson's level though, I think will say who wins the fight - the distance (reach) and the technique. Because Anderson is very good on the ground as well, great jiu jitsu, very well trained. He (Anderson) is bigger, stronger and faster. That's how he is going to win the fight. Its going to be a great fight, I am so excited. I hope the fight is going to be in Brazil so I can be in the front row watching!"
Do you think Big Nog's assessment of the super fight is correct? Or are you already tired of talking about this fight? Only about a year left to debate this topic, Maniacs.

College of Charleston sophomore shortstop Gunnar Heidt has been named the Southern Conference Player of the Month for March, the conference office announced Friday.
A native of Garden City, S.C., Heidt hit .384 with 18 runs scored, 20 RBIs, 13 walks, five stolen bases and nine extra-base hits in March, helping the Cougars to a 12-7 record and a 7-4 start in league play. He recorded a team-high slugging percentage of .575 during the month and leads the Cougars in most offensive categories for the whole season.
Heidt hit safely in 15 of 19 games during the month, leading the Cougars to big series wins over then-No. 30 South Alabama, Elon and Samford.
Last weekend in a sweep at Samford, he hit .471 with nine RBIs, including a career-high five-RBI performance with a three-run homer on Saturday.
Heidt currently leads the Southern Conference with five triples, a mark that ties him for second in the country.
This award is the first career conference honor for Heidt, and the first SoCon monthly award for CofC Baseball in the 2013 season.

Even though King America Finishings has completely changed is waste water discharge processes following a settlement with the Ogeechee Riverkeeper, the question is: should we worry about eating the fish from the water?
Right now the most concerning issue is high mercury levels. This is actually a state-wide issue, and not related to King America.
However, it's something that families need to be aware of, especially pregnant woman and children.
"I think they need to stop dumping in the river," said Brion Hunt, who used to fish in the Ogeechee. But after that massive fish kill back in 2011, he wont even let his children swim in the river, let alone eat the fish from it.
"I just dont trust the water, I dont trust the pollution that they're putting in the river, and I don't think its right that they pollute the river," said Hunt.
The Ogeechee riverkeeper filed a federal lawsuit against King American Finishing for dumping waste water into the Ogeechee without the proper permit.
Since then, both sides have reached a settlement. King America agreed to follow the new permit perameters on the discharge, which will include regular monitoring and reporting.
"They are doing what they are supposed to be doing. They have upgraded their waste water treatment system and they are going to continue to add upgrades and improvements so that what they're discharging should be what they're discharging," said the riverkeeper.
Additionally, the Ogeechee River keep will get $2.5 million in settlement money that will be used to continue to protect the river. Right now one of the main concerns is mercury
"So the river is still on the states 303d- impaired list for mercury. That is pretty much a state wide problem for our Georgia rivers, is mercury contamination, and that can affect pregnant woman and children especially."
The Ogeechee Riverkeeper says it recommends following the Georgia fish consumption guides, recommending that certain fish should only be eaten once a month or once a week because of the high murcury levels or other contaminates, and that woman and children need to be even more careful when consuming these types of fish.
For fishermen like Marrio Holley, he has no problem fishing recreationally.
"I do it mostly for the sport," said Holley. "If I caught something that was edible I would eat it. I dont have any reasons not to. "

The Mayan Long Count Calendar is a calendar system that was used by the ancient Maya civilization during the Classic period between AD 200 and 900. This entry in the Dictionary of Archaeology includes information on how the Long Count Calendar functions. See the main glossary entry for the Mayan Long Count for additional cultural information.
The Mayan Long Count Calendar and Base 20
The Mayan Long Count Calendar uses what mathematicians call base 20 or the vigesimal system. Western number systems, the ones English speakers are most familiar with, are in base ten or the decimal system. Scholars believe Mesoamericans used base 20 for the same reason others use base 10: because we humans have ten fingers and ten toes, and that's what we use to count with.
The innovation of the Maya Long Count Calendar required that the numbers have meaning when they are placed relative to one another ("positional meaning"), that there be a mathematical concept of zero, and that a starting date be created to anchor events in time.
The Mixe Zoque who invented the Mayan Long Count Calendar probably about 300 BC chose the year 3114 BC as its starting date, for reasons that are unknown to us. Scholars are divided as to the specific Gregorian calendar date meant by the starting date, represented by archaeologists as 184.108.40.206.0. Estimated dates range between August 11 and September 8, 3114 BC.
Mayan Long Count Calendar Components
The Mayan Long Count vigesimal system is broken into five vigesimal columns.
- cycle or baktun = 20 k'atun = 144,000 days (~400 years)
- k'atun = 20 tun = 7200 days (~20 years)
- tun = 18 winal = 360 days (~1 year)
- uinal or winal = 20 k'in = 20 days (~month)
- k'in = 1 day
These are typically recorded by archaeologists translating the ancient Maya script, like this:
- baktun.k'atun.tun.winal.k'in
Thus, In the same way that 2012 means two thousand, no hundreds, one ten and two ones,
- 22.214.171.124.6
means 12 baktun, 19 k'atun, 17 tun, 3 winal, and 6 k'in, or 15 March 2010. By the way, this combination of Arabic numerals is of course, a modern transcription of the Mayan number system. The traditional Mayan number system, also used in other Mesoamerican societies with some variations, used a series of dots and bars to represent numbers, with a shell icon representing zero, as illustrated in the image on this page.

Sony marketing took rookie Neill Blomkamp's $30-million VFX thriller to a terrific estimated $37 million--it wasn't the stunning reviews alone. All the Comic-Con raves and critics and folks on twitter and facebook had a viral impact. The R-rated sci-fi thriller opened well to its largely male base. A sustained hold will require other audience segments to come in--and I just don't know how this plays for women. They went to see The Time Traveler's Wife this weekend, which nabbed lousy reviews and came in at a solid $19 million.
But the big box office news is also the 59% plunge of the second weekend of G.I. Joe and the excellent hold, only a 38% drop, of Julie & Julia, starring Hollywood's most reliable movie star these days, the 60-year-old Meryl Streep. I got a kick at seeing her on the Charlie Rose Show (clip below) obviously reveling, after years of misogyny and career ups and downs, in her current hot streak--and stardom. Nora Ephron admitted that she needed the post-Devil Wears Prada Streep to get Julie & Julia made. And Mamma Mia! was a huge global hit too ($602 million worldwide). Here's The Independent on why economists love Streep. And the Academy is over the moon for her too. An Oscar nomination for Streep is secure.
Not so sure how the Academy will handle District 9, which will be on many film critics' ten best lists at year's end. But it's an intense genre thriller. Maybe VFX and some technicals. Neill Blomkamp is an outsider. LOTR Oscar-winner Peter Jackson, who made the film possible, is not.
brian burnett | August 18, 2009 4:40 AM
come on! is anyone paying attention?? my earlier note on the magnificent Meryl had a deliberate error - not spotted?? her last Oscar was for.......Sophie's Choice..........
Kerry Davis | August 17, 2009 5:06 AM
I was hoping GI Joe was going to give more than it gave. The previews were actually better than the movie. I don't know about this one.
Jake Yenor | August 17, 2009 4:36 AM
He did good

brian burnett | August 17, 2009 4:16 AM
Thanks for the posting on the Magnificent Meryl - sure, we know the Academy loves her, but WHY no Oscar for her since Out of Africa, only nominations - come on, guys, wake up in 2010, and do the right thing!
As the New York Times noted in their review of J & J, Streep has 'exceeded all the superlatives'

The Alice Crimmins Case
'Sexpot' on Trial
On September 11, 1967, two years and two months after the deaths of little Missy and Eddie, Alice Crimmins was arrested for the first-degree murder of her daughter.ĀShe was not charged in her sons death because it could not be medically proven that he had been murdered.
The press, especially the tabloid press, had a field day with the case.ĀAlice Crimmins was invariably called the ex-cocktail waitress even though it was a position she had held for only a few months.ĀAs Ann Jones has noted, the word was used as a pejorative to sneer at Alice Crimmins and a whole category of women workers at once despite her future attorneys sound judgment that it was actually a very hard job.ĀBut people see the tight-fitting, frilly outfit, not the constant waiting and serving.
Crimminss sexual escapades were raked over for both their titillation value and as a source of moral outrage.ĀFront Page Detective labeled her Sexpot on Trial and described her as an erring wife, a Circe, an amoral woman whose many affairs appear symptomatic of Americas Sex Revolution.
The courtroom trial began in May, 1968 with Judge Peter Farrell, a long-nosed man with thinning silver hair, presiding.ĀIt was sensational in the extreme, partly because of the sex-related testimony and partly due to Crimminss emotional outbursts.
The physician who had first inspected Missys body when it was found in the lot was named Richard Grimes. He testified: I saw the body of a girl who appeared to be about five years of ageĀ... She was clad in a cotton undershirt, a pair of yellow panties--
No! The doctors recitation was broken by a shout from Alice Crimmins who began to weep.
Judge Farrell demanded order and told Dr. Grimes to continue.ĀAround the little girls face there was a cloth tie, Dr. Grimes said.Ā"The loose ends of the tie appeared to be the arm of some type of garment.ĀThe tie was over the mouth of the child, the knot encircling the neck, and the tie was rather loose. ..."
Alice Crimmins, supposedly a cold and unfeeling woman, wailed and sobbed uncontrollably during this testimony.ĀA few spectators started crying with her and the judge put the court in recess.
A different kind of explosion from Alice took place during Joe Rorechs testimony.ĀRorech had to be repeatedly reminded to speak up as he testified in what was, for him, an oddly subdued voice.ĀHe told the packed courtroom that prior to the murders, Alice had discussed Eddies custody suit and had speculated that she might simply take off with them if she thought she might legally lose them.ĀHe also repeated her statement that she would rather see them dead than with Eddie.ĀLater, he said that the two lovers had been talking about the children and a teary-eyed Alice had sadly said, Joseph, please forgive me, I killed her.
At this testimony, Alice Crimmins leapt to her feet and screamed, Joseph!ĀHow could you do this?ĀThis is not true!ĀJosephĀ... you, of all people!ĀOh, my God!
Sophie Earomirski may have been the trials most dramatic witness. On direct examination by prosecutor James Mosley, she told how she had seen a woman carrying a bundle, a man, and a little boy on that sleepless night at the window.ĀHe took the bundle and he swung the bundle under his armĀ... and he walked very quickly to the car, Earomirski testified as the courtroom listened in hushed anticipation. ... he took this bundle and threw it in the back seat of the car.ĀShe ran over to him and she said, My God, dont do that to her.ĀAnd then he looked at her and said, Now youre sorry? andĀ... she said, Please dont say that.
When asked if she recognized the woman in the courtroom, Earomirski didnt hesitate.ĀShe pointed an accusing finger at Alice Crimmins and said, Thats the woman.
Again Alice jumped to her feet screaming.ĀYou liar!ĀYou liar! the defendant thundered.ĀYou liar!ĀYou liar!ĀYou liar!ĀYou liar!
Judge Farrell pounded his gavel and demanded Alice Crimmins get a grip on herself.
One of Crimminss attorneys, Martin Baron, tried to point out inconsistencies between the story she related to this jury and what she had told to the grand jury.ĀHowever, Sophie was very popular with the courtroom audience, most of who were strongly convinced of Crimminss guilt. The spectators often laughed or even applauded at her answers until the judge admonished them that, This is not the Hippodrome. She held up well under cross-examination and, during a court recess, triumphantly held up her hands in a boxers salute.Ā

Hi kinsa ang nkabalo unsa ang latest rate karon sa bangka kung mag whale watching
Last I knew it was p300 per person. Get there before apprx 1pm becz the whales are said to leave about that time. Maybe due to the heat.
Director of NegOr tourism told me Yayoy's daughter was said to be renting out her scuba pump boat for p6000 leaving from Sta Monica, but she hasn't replied to my text, so I don't know if she is doing that still.
Foreigners told me it's possible to swim out to the whale sharks from shore. Distance reportedly about 50 meters?
Fast this Life of mine was dying
Blind already and calm as Death
Snowflakes on her bosom lying
Scarcely heaving with her breath
Love came by, and having known her
In a dream of Fabled Lands

Unquestionably the primary source of revenue, of course, is the airlines who use which the facilities. After all, they achieve most of the benefit. End up being be very expensive for each regarding them to build their own terminals, their own runways, if they is likely to even acquire the necessary land, individually and on their own. For your same reason, it makes perfect recognize for the county government to have and coordinate a common take-off plus landing facility.
Such a year, A. Maire Dinsmore nabbed first place in Crypticon's annual article writing contest, sponsored by Blysster Press in addition heavy-metal opera company Ara'Kus.
Benedetti frequently plays in much loftier settings, including the San Diego Symphony, one particular San Diego and Starlight Operas, the most important San Diego Ballet Company, the Long forgotten Globe Theater, theEast County Performing Artistry Center, dimly lit jazz clubs really like Dizzy's downtown in the Gaslamp Quarter, and has even performed the Countrywide Anthem for the San Diego Padres at Petco Park.
Quite term parking might be the most cost-effective option when flying out of Relaxed and returning within a week. There are two offsite airport parking lots to choose from.
Cabs and hired cars have been one popular preference over grueling task concerning car parking at Sydney Airport – but once again, the inconvenient principles governing all passenger collections, drop offs as well as car parking available on Sydney Airport make catching taxis awfully much the same as getting an increase or just doing it yourself. Taxis are also not cheap, and as a result really there's not much advantage to all your stress levels or your hip wallet in catching a taxi over vehicle parking at Sydney Airport. Taxis possess one benefit over taking your man or women car however, and that is which drive themselves off when you're carried out with them. They're dispensable. Only if your car would drive itself at home in lieu of hassling a optimistic mate with the pangs of Bristol airport parking is even easier with Airport parking shop with their best price Guarantee!
Finest questionable idea is to tax 8 % of the gross revenue of of these off-airport private businesses, to add earnings to the airport. That is ordinarily absurd. They are already finding money the privilege of coming in but out for brief periods. They start to pay for their own off-airport facilities, so they aren't using the equipment and runways. The county will not be creating new ways to city water for revenue just because a online business has some relationship to air commute. If an arriving passenger goes to make lunch at Oakland Gyros on Layton Boulevard, will airport staff be advising to tax eight percent of that this restaurant's gross revenue?
DESCRIPTION: There is a Frequent Parker Procedure. They are close to the airport, and claim accomplish the largest fleet to shuttle to with from the airport. From its northern border gate entrance located off JFK Boulevard's feeder road you can enter due to oversized vehicles such as campers, leading trucks, etc.

I told you: the Derek Boogaard signing was a good move. A really good move. A great move. He scored yet again tonight. Second time in only 185 games! Unassisted! What talent! He's on a pace for 0.032 goals per game. Never mind his fighting ability, which is great: he always manages to wrestle his opponent to a draw. As for actual play, he brings smooth skating and soft hands and a scoring touch. Hafta love this guy! He is sooooo worth the $6.5 mil we thought we were wasting.
And he is a +/- 0 tonight! What more could we want?

Mahindra hopes for quick Aston Martin deal
But much is unclear as the British maker of James Bond's sports cars, its Kuwaiti owner and a rival Italian bidder keep their own counsel. "There are a lot of moving parts here," a person with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters on Monday, adding the Mahindras hoped to strike a deal this week.
The source told Reuters that an initial 40-percent stake could rise to 50 percent for a total price unlikely to top $400 million. Kuwait's Investment Dar, which led a private acquisition of the luxury brand from Ford in 2007, denied on Sunday that it was reviewing two bids for 50 percent after sources said Mahindra had outbid Italian investor InvestIndustrial.
The person familiar with the deal said on Monday, however, that bidders were wrangling over issues on management control.

Never mind that he has lost two of his past four fights. Mexico's Alfredo Angulo has the promotional clout to land the first pay-per-view headliner of his career.
Angulo's relentless, brawling style was sufficient for Golden Boy Promotions to match him with Saul "Canelo" Alvarez on March 8 in Las Vegas. The super-welterweight bout will be Alvarez's first since his majority decision loss against Floyd Mayweather Jr. last September.
Golden Boy eagerly wants to maintain Alvarez — its most appealing fighter — on the pay-per-view landscape. Alvarez is hugely popular in his native Mexico and western United States, and Golden Boy looks at the 23-year-old redhead as a possible torchbearer for the sport once Mayweather retires.
As the promotional power pairs Alvarez with compatriot Angulo, the company also will provide Alvarez an opponent that will expectedly trade shots at a constant pace — a contrast to someone blessed with exceptional boxing skills like Mayweather.
"These are two all-action fighters coming forward," said Richard Schaeffer, Golden Boy Promotions chief executive officer. "They love to trade and slug it out in the middle of the ring."
Schaeffer's endorsement also could have been seen as a slight at Erislandy Lara. The native of Cuba has become one of the top fighters in the 154-pound weight class. Lara further enhanced his stock with a TKO win over Angulo last June and a dominant decision victory against Austin Trout last month.
But Lara boxes for results and is not known for the all-out warfare common of Angulo. Although Angulo, who has not fought since the loss to Lara, scored two knockdowns in their bout, Lara outpointed him in the majority of rounds.
For Lara, who also is promotionally linked to Golden Boy, the victories over Angulo and Trout were not sufficient to earn him the coveted date with Alvarez. Whether fighting style, the nationalistic angle or ideal opponent to match Alvarez after the Mayweather bout, Angulo managed to draw the enviable pay-per-view prize.
Shortly after the Lara-Angulo fight, Schaeffer glowed about Angulo's prospects of remaining relevant in top bouts while undervaluing Lara's performance. Schaeffer listed Angulo among a group of fighters that also included Alvarez, Danny Garcia and Marcos Maidana, whose styles attract fans and TV networks.
Interestingly, Schaeffer did not mention Mayweather, the sport's most-popular fighter and top pay-per-view performer. Mayweather's style will never be confused with Angulo's. In fact when comparing fighters, Mayweather fits more with Lara's approach.
If he follows his successful performances of 2013 with another strong year and still not land the premium bout, Lara perhaps will need to seek promotional guidance elsewhere. Lara might have no other choice, especially if opponents he has defeated continue overtaking him to the pay-per-view holy grail.
Pacquiao, Rubio meet
Before he begins training camp for his rematch against Timothy Bradley on April 12, eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao has focused on his responsibilities as congressman in the Philippines government. Pacquiao's activities include meetings with foreign politicians, such as a visit last week from Florida Sen. Marco Rubio.
Rubio, who visited the Philippines as part of a three-nation Asian tour, met with Pacquiao and the two discussed various issues both advocate in their respective countries.
"Manny is not only a world champion boxer but a dedicated public servant," Rubio said in a statement. "He loves his country and is so passionate about making sure the Philippines continue rebuilding in the typhoon's aftermath.
"I also learned that fighting human trafficking is one of his signature issues and it's something I've worked a lot on in the Senate. We promised each other we'd work together in the future to raise awareness and protect innocent people from this grotesque form of human slavery."
Clay-Liston, 50 years later
History Miami Museum will present a special program commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Cassius Clay- Sonny Liston fight on Feb. 25.
Clay defeated Liston for the world heavyweight title at the Miami Beach Convention Center on Feb. 25, 1964. Shortly after the fight, Clay changed his name to Muhammad Ali and became one of the most iconic sporting figures of the 20th century.
The program will feature exhibitions and speakers detailing the historic event. For information, call 305-375-4218.
Late Saturday
• Mikey Garcia retained his WBO junior-lightweight title with a convincing decision against Juan Carlos Burgos in New York.
• Lamont Peterson successfully defended his IBF junior-welterweight title with a unanimous decision win over Dierry Jean in Washington. The bout was Peterson's first since a third-round TKO loss against Lucas Matthysse in a non-title fight last May.
• Miami's Joey Hernandez lost a lopsided decision against Cornelius Bundrage in their junior-middleweight title eliminator Friday night in Indio, Calif.

Phoenix Suns
Phoenix Suns meet with free agent center Spencer Hawes
Source: #Suns planning to meet with free agent center Spencer Hawes; in town for a visit today— Craig Grialou (@CraigAZSports) July 3, 2014
Hawes finished out the 2013-14 season with the Cleveland Cavaliers after being traded from Philadelphia, where he had spent the previous three-and-a-half years. Last year was perhaps his best as a pro, as he posted 13.2 points and 8.3 rebounds per contest in 53 outings with the 76ers and 27 with the Cavs.
The 7-foot-1 big man also developed a reliable outside shot last season, converting 41.6 percent of his three-point attempts. His 128 makes from behind the long line were more than his career total prior to the season.
The seven-year veteran turned 26 in April, and he has put up numbers of 9.7 points, 6.4 rebounds and 46.5 percent field-goal shooting in 24.9 minutes per game in his career.
Hawes, a Washington product originally drafted by Sacramento, is an unrestricted free agent after finishing a two-year, $13.1 million contract that he signed with Philadelphia prior to the 2012-13 campaign.
The 2007 first-round draft pick has reportedly also drawn interest from the Golden State Warriors, Portland Trail Blazers, Miami Heat and Los Angeles Clippers -- as well as one of his old teams, the 76ers.

text: I think all Bronco fans, at least Nuggies, are eagerly awaiting Davien Payne, the Citrus Hill monster, to commit to Boise State. It has already been noted by broncochick that he has listed his college on Facebook as Boise State. Now, this is pretty Facebook official, but I stopped by again today just to see if anything had changed. What I found was interesting. In his recent activity, he added Jeff Worthy as a friend. I thought for a second, thinking they just went to the same school But no! Worthy, for those of you that don't know and/or live under a rock, is a new Bronco D-lineman who signed a LOI this year to play for the Broncos. He went to Whittier Christian High. Now Citrus Hill and Whittier are both in California, but I think it is just a bit of a coincidence that a potential member of the Broncos is now friends with a new member. And by coincidence I mean awesome.

|Legislative perspective on Kentucky General Assembly
Statewide, there has been some good news in recent months worth noting. The job market overall is looking somewhat better, with the state's unemployment rate down, and we're working on improving the economy here in our legislative district.
A national ranking this year showed us doing well among the states in the number of new start-up companies, and the news channel CNBC recently reported that Kentucky has the lowest cost of doing business. Both of these point to a promising 2013.
Beyond our economy, good news can be found at our schools as well. Early this year, the respected "Education Week" magazine put Kentucky 14th among the states in its "Quality Counts" report, which measures academic progress.

Quins down Sale for Anglo-Welsh glory
March 17, 2013
Harlequins lift the LV= Anglo-Welsh Cup following their victory over Sale Sharks at Sixways

Treble-chasing Harlequins claimed the first piece of silverware of the season with a 32-14 victory over Sale Sharks in the LV= Anglo-Welsh Cup Final at Sixways on Sunday.
The victory marks the first time Quins have won the domestic knock-out cup, in any of its various guises, since 1991. Wing Tom Williams, number eight Tom Guest, centre Tom Casson and flanker Luke Wallace all crashed over for Quins, while fly-half Ben Botica added 12 points with two penalties and three conversions.
The defeat for Sale means they have not beaten the Londoners in any competition since a 21-17 victory in the Premiership way back in September 2010 and, despite trying hard, the difference between the two sides was clear. The Sharks' only touchdown came in the second half when centre Johnny Leota finished off some good work to add to three Danny Cipriani penalties. But it proved nothing more than a consolation.
Quins' victory was deserved and they will now look to win the Aviva Premiership title again while they are still in with a shot at the Heineken Cup.
The Londoners made only one change, which was on the bench, from the team which Bath in last week's semi-final. But Sale boss Steve Diamond was forced into to late changes when both hooker Marc Jones and centre Will Addison pulled out. Tommy Taylor replaced Jones and Sammy Tuitupou was drafted into partner Leota in the Sharks' midfield.
Watched by their England contingent who were involved in the Six Nations defeat to Wales in Cardiff yesterday, Quins raced out of the blocks to go 8-0 up early on. Botica landed the first points when he kicked a 40-metre penalty on four minutes and five minutes later pressure inside the Sharks' 22 saw scrum-half Karl Dickson feed Williams to go over in the right corner.
It was the worst possible start for Sale but Quins' try sparked the Sharks into action and Cipriani grabbed their first points with a 25-metre penalty. But the Sharks' biggest problem was of their own making - with handling errors plaguing them throughout.
Quins, on the other hand, took their chances clinically, and when they were awarded a five-metre scrum on the opposition line Guest picked-up sweetly to drive over the line. Cipriani pulled back another three points from 20 metres but only with the help of the post to deflect it over the crossbar but that was cancelled out by Botica's second penalty just before half-time to give Quins a 12-point advantage. It was going to be a tall order for the relegation-battling Sharks to bounce back against the reigning Premiership champions.
Cipriani booted his third penalty after the break but Quins turned up the volume and two tries in nine minutes put the Londoners in the driving seat at 32-9. Casson's try was a great move from a line-out, where a clean take by lock Charlie Matthews sent the ball via Dickson to Botica and, as a big gap opened in the midfield, the Quins centre gratefully received the present and stormed over from 25 metres.
Then flanker Luke Wallace found the smallest of gaps from a few metres out to sneak under the Sale cover and place the ball on the line. Sale rang the changes in one final shot to get within sight of an elusive cup victory. Their endeavour brought a try at last when Leota finished off a neat move near the Quins posts.
The Sharks were fired-up and, with Powell and flanker James Gaskell energising their pack, they took the territorial advantage in the final quarter but it was all too late as the fans from London celebrated their victory.

Ability. . .Not Disability: A Historical Perspective
Society's Assets began in 1972 as an informal, grass roots effort led by people with disabilities and incorporated in 1974. One of the agency's first goals was to expand home health care in Racine. Many individuals with severe disabilities were forced to spend their lives in bed in the evenings and on the weekends since home health care was provided on weekdays only, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. With funding from the Comprehensive Education and Training Act (CETA), which provided funds for non-profit agencies hiring people with disabilities, the group opened an office and established a home care service which operated 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Society's Assets led the way in developing other services and resources for seniors and people with disabilities, e.g., information and referral, independent living skills, advocacy, peer support, personal care, household assistance, telecommunications relay system, try-out program for adaptive equipment, and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) consultation. Today the agency still provides most of the same services it offered in the early years. However, the scope, complexity, and volume has increased and continues to grow.

Maximum kb on photos is 512. My camera takes photos at 2 mb. What do i do? what am I doing wrong. My "uploads" are nonstop unsuccessful. Please help me Thanks, Mark
Re: Photos
Mark - if you have a photo editing program use it to reduce the size of your pictures before uploading. If you do not have one, go to www.irfanview.com and you can download it for free. It is easy to use and understand. Also available for window users are programs called windows power toys. Another free download from Microsoft. You can resize photos with two mouse clicks using their image resizer.
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!
Re: Photos
if your camera can take pic's at 2mb, that should be the max, not the minimum size... there should be a setting to take the pictures at less-than-maximum megapixels/inch. but BigDog's also correct; just "crop'em" or use a program as suggested...
good luck!
