News: Game's 'R.E.D. Album' Dethrones Jay-Z & Kanye West, "'Watch The Throne Is Wack Is Trending Worldwide?"
Wednesday, Aug 31, 2011 10:11AM
West Coast rapper Game has secured his latest number one debut as The R.E.D. Album bumped Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch the Throne as the nation's top album.
Game's newest solo retail effort nearly sold 100,00 copies in its first seven days.
West Coast rapper Game's The R.E.D. Album debuted this week at No. 1. According to Nielsen SoundScan, the rapper's fourth solo LP has sold 97,900 units to date. Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch the Throne moved 94,200 records in its third week. (SOHH Sales Wrap)
The rapper proceeded to celebrate his album's sales by hitting up Twitter.
"R.E.D. album #1 in the world ! 96,418 copies sold in the U.S.. 47,016 in Canada... 68,135 in Europe.. 16,003 in Asia ... & 42,801 in Aus !!!," he tweeted August 30th.
"D*mn near 300,000 units moved worldwide in a week ! Thank you for the continuous support........ On my mama I LOVE all yall for ridin wit me"
"Im so f*ckin happy right now I dont know what the f*ck 2 do ! Thank yall again from the bottom of MY HEART ! Lamborghinis 4 EVERYBODY lol"
"4 #1 rap albums !!! Seems like just yesterday I wanted to be a rapper now 4 albums later...... We here. D*mn, life krazy sometimes"
"Watch The Throne Is Wack is trending WORLDWIDE ? THAT'S HOW YALL FEEL !?!?!" (Game's Twitter)
Initial estimates showed his LP selling up to 95,000 units.
Game's new Interscope release, The R.E.D. Album, is slated to do in the range of 90-95k in sales, according to one-day reports from those music retailers who haven't closed up shop and set up Ludo Bites pop-up restaurants. It's the rap star's first album since 2008's LAX and stands for his self-declared "Rededication to hip-hop." And, oh yeah, dropping the "The" from his name. (HITS Daily Double)
Although Game's album reigns supreme this week, rapper Lil Wayne's new Carter IV is projected to debut number one in seven days.
Lil Wayne's just-released "Tha Carter IV" album could have the second-biggest sales week of the year, as industry forecasters suggest it may sell 700,000-850,000 copies by the end of the tracking week on Sunday, Sept. 4. "IV" will easily bow at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 next week -- marking Wayne's third No. 1. If "Tha Carter IV" launches with at least 700,000, it will immediately mark the second-largest frame of any album this year, behindLady Gaga's 1.11 million debut with "Born This Way." (Billboard Biz)

PLEASE let McShay be right (for once)!!!
He just mocked Patrick Peterson going 7th to the 49ers and both of the 1st round QBs (Newton and Gabbert) already gone! That would be the best possible thing to happen for us if, for whatever reason, we fail to get Nnamdi before the draft. The 49ers, having missed out on both QBs, would obviously get tremendous value with Peterson at 7, but still would not have their QB of the future and should feel pressured to get him now...meaning a trade for Kolb and probably a swap for firsts or Philly adding some picks. PLEASE LET MCSHAY BE RIGHT!

Ciebola has two excellent, but very different pitches.
This route starts on the nice very thin seam right of Sweat Jesus on the northwest face of Medlicott Dome's far west side. Approach as for Bachar-Yerian then go west about 200 meters.
Thin stoppers to 1", include thin cams but no micro-nuts. A sling tie-off for the pin on the first pitch is probably safer than clipping the pin eye. Second pitch has 11 bolts. Double ropes can help with rope drag and better protect your second on the second pitch traverse.

Hypnosis Actually Works
So... I was sitting in the living room, about as dead as I could possibly be. I couldn't keep my eyes focused, and could barely keep them open. I was miserable.
Neetu suggests that Manish try hypnotizing me. I don't really believe in it, but I figure I might as well try it. Sure enough, I was wide awake afterwards! A couple naps later I'm a bit tired again, but not too bad at all.

Legal Ethics
Should Lawyers Worry About Virginia State Bar Crackdown on Firm's Law Blog?
Posted Oct 11, 2011 7:04 PM CDT
By Rachel M. Zahorsky
Updated: Richmond, Va.-based criminal defense attorney Horace Hunter, who blogs about cases he's worked on (and national and local criminal justice issues) at Richmond Criminal Defense News, has been charged with misconduct by the Virginia State Bar.
The charge comes amid concerns by bar authorities that Hunter's blog on his firm's website is actually an advertisement, rather than an informative news and commentary website as Hunter claims, a move that could make other lawyer-bloggers wary, reports the Washington Post's Capital Business blog.
"Hunter's case has some lawyers—for whom blogging has become commonplace—as well as free speech and social media law experts questioning whether the bar is overreaching in its regulation of online speech in the social media age," wrote the Post's Catherine Ho.
LexBlog's Kevin O'Keefe says it's the Post's particular analysis of the event, not the actions of the State Bar, that could have a chilling effect on lawyer-bloggers who do a service to the profession by making the law more accessible to consumers and businesspeople.
"There there is no record of disciplinary action against Virginia attorneys regarding blogging dating back to 1999," O'Keefe wrote in a separate Real Lawyers Have Blogs post. "Not a big risk here with lawyers who blog."
Washington, D.C., solo Carolyn Elefant also noted the Post's coverage at My Shingle. However, she says that because Hunter's blog posts note cases that his firm has won, Virginia Ethics Rule 7.2 seems to apply. That rule calls for lawyers, when listing previous wins in advertising, to first include a disclaimer stating that every case is different, and that prior results don't guarantee future success. Hunter didn't have the disclaimer in his blog posts noting his firm's wins, and that's what the bar is taking issue with.
Elefant hopes for the sake of legal blogging, though, that this case is resolved in Hunter's favor. "If the Virginia Bar finds that Hunter's news feed qua blog is an advertisement and therefore requires disclaimers, mark my words, that decision will be construed broadly to encompass even legitimate blogs that discusses substantive legal issues," Elefant wrote.
The case is scheduled for a hearing Oct. 18.

The ABCs of Data Availability in 2013
- |
- 2:47 pm |
- Permalink
2013 may very well prove to be the "Year of Figuring It Out" in terms of data availability. Many organizations spent last year wading through the hype, evaluating new opportunities and technologies and developing a strategy. This year will be about executing on that strategy.
In addition, in today's era of Big Data and continuous connectivity — when everyone expects availability of data and information anywhere and anytime — you can expect organizations to focus on creating a mindset where data and applications are central to their goals and ground games.
These two outlooks portend other trends in data availability this year that will assist executives in achieving organizational success. Here are several:
- Big Data will rise further, triggering its use to mine insights for new business strategies and revenue streams. Organizations, mindful of this fresh buzzword, will employ business-intelligence strategies similar to the cloud model as they dip their toes into understanding the full benefits of Big Data. (That term defines the mountain of unstructured and semi-structured data a company creates and comprises business transactions, photos, surveillance videos, activity logs, blogs and social media, and the like.) Customers will adopt more of a combined "hybrid" approach toward IT, mixing private cloud services and traditional technologies. This interest in Big Data will also mean protecting data and making applications available continuously.
- Flexibility will grow to accept mobile working environments: A longstanding trend, again driven by employees' expectations of being able to work anywhere, will continue to increase. Increasingly sophisticated smart devices and a 'connected' world mean people want to work in a more mobile fashion and businesses must support this. As a result, Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) popularity will expand further. Organizations eager to attract the tech-savvy talent will let employees bring their own mobile devices to work and use them to access privileged company resources such as email and databases as well as their personal applications and data.
- Businesses will better understand how social media's prevalence can make or break them: Bad news travels fast and companies cannot afford to let availability slip down the agenda as their crises take on "wings." Brands will be made or broken by how well they manage public disruptions.
- Without availability, customer loyalty easily can be lost: Customer loyalty relies on availability and the service you offer customers. In an age where the competition is perpetually one mouse click away, you can't provide the service customers demand without availability. Disasters such as Hurricane Sandy underscore the critical importance of keeping customers' production environments available and executing on recovery plans of customers whose primary site was compromised during a crisis. Such disasters illuminate the invaluable contributions of planning, preparing for and executing during such a calamity.
- Enterprises will continue to seek strategic service providers that can help them become more agile, adaptable and standardized. They want providers to transform their IT environment to meet the data availability and other challenges they face today and will encounter in the future. This has a direct relationship with how virtualization and cloud computing are becoming accepted in production environments.
- Security will grow ever-critical, as customers worry about cybercriminals wreaking havoc with their data, especially in the still-uncertain cloud environment. Service providers will be under the microscope to illuminate how their managed security services protect and govern their cloud environments.
Of course, others have their opinions about 2013 data-availability trends. InformationWeek's Charles Babcock expects the "Rise of the Port-a-Data Center" (yes, think a module roughly equal to a Port-a-Potty with a weather-tight rack of servers, storage and switching and sits on a concrete slab). The Data Center Journal and the Cloud Computing Journal offer theirs as well. SunGard's own blog even weighs in with trends.
So, what's your data forecast for this year?
Matt Carey is senior director of product strategy at SunGard Availability Services.

Talk:S band
|WikiProject Physics
|(Rated Start-class, Low-importance)
Please also insert links to the other frequency bands —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 20:25, 22 May 2011 (UTC)
Microwave ovens and UHF/SHF band[edit]
The parenthesis in this sentence:
Microwave ovens operate at 2495 or 2450MHz (which actually makes them UHF instead of microwave/SHF)
makes little sense, in my opinion. Microwave ovens are so called just because they use, indeed, microwaves. There is no claim of them working in either the UHF or SHF band, and in fact this has little importance, especially after one has said what is the exact working frequency. This is a longer justification of my edit, which has been reverted without any explicit justification.
So I would just delete the sentence in parenthesis, as I had done before your revert, unless there is no clear reason to leave the observation about UHF and SHF, which in this context is useless and possibly misleading. --Pot (talk) 21:18, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
- Every other band with a wavelength name has a corresponding frequency range:
- longwave = LF
- mediumwave = MF
- shortwave = HF
- millimeter wave = EHF
- microwave = SHF (therefore: microwave ≠ UHF)
- Why should microwave be arbitrarily different? It is obviously worth noting that different groups (like RF engineers) may think differently for practical reasons based on how they happen to use the spectrum, but this does not change physics, or scientific definitions. –radiojon (talk) 07:47, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
- Microwave is not the same as SHF: just see microwave and super high frequency for the definitions. By looking at the definitions, you will see that microwaves encompass UHF, SHF and EHF. So, if you think otherwise, and can provide a reliable reference, you should first edit the microwave article. After that, we could think about editing other articles that reference microwaves, for consistency. Until then, I think that this article is accurate and consistent with the definitions in microwave, UHF and SHF. --Pot (talk) 21:33, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

The 180 minutes of football between Santos FC and Corinthians in the 2011 Campeonato Paulista were fantastic, but the best viewing in Brazil was to be found in the Campeonato Gaucho, as Internacional and Gremio required penalties. Gremio put in a fantastic performance in the first leg last weekend, winning 3-2, but Internacional incredibly matched them with the exact same result this week. With the series tied at 5-5 on aggregate, the teams went to penalties where the Colorado came out ahead.
Just 15 minutes into the game, Gremio scored to make the score 4-2 in favor of them on aggregate, thanks to a goal by Lucio, who was getting forward from his left back position. It didn't take long for the Colorado to find an equalizer, as their leading scorer Leandro Damiao added to his impressive goal scoring record in the 31st minute. Just before the stroke of halftime, Internacional leveled the score at 4-4 on aggregate, as Andrezinho scored in second half stoppage time.
In the 72nd minute, Victor hauled down Ze Roberto in the box, gifting Inter a penalty kick. Their star playmaker Andres D'Alessandro converted, and Internacional looked like they were on their way to the title. Gremio would even the game, though, as free-scoring veteran forward Borges scored in the 81st minute to tie the score at 5-5 on aggregate.
Both teams had a couple of back to back misses in the penalty shootout to push the shootout past the normal five shots, but Adilson eventually missed in sudden death for Gremio, allowing Ze Roberto to score the winning penalty, giving the Colorado the title.

Celebrate 1/20/09
by mole333, Tue Jan 20, 2009 at 02:00:37 AM EST
Change is in the air! Today, one of the worst eras in American history will come to a close (lasting legacy of economic depression aside), and a new, almost certainly MUCH better era will begin. It is time to celebrate. How will you celebrate the end of the Bush regime and the beginning of the Obama Presidency? With the passing of one very depressing era, and the start of a new, very hopeful one, I am considering several ways to commemorate the event.
Perhaps it is time to show my pride as a liberal American. Be PROUD to be a liberal American. Our nation was founded on liberal principles and we should remind everyone around us that it is PATRIOTIC to be liberal.
Perhaps it is time to invest in renewable energy produced here in America on American farms and Native American lands. We need to rebuild America, rebuild our economy in a new, greener image. Native Energy is one of the best programs to focus on to do this.
Perhaps it is time to focus on the future of the Progressive Movement. Our big wins in 2006 and 2008 are only the beginning.
Perhaps it is time to further build the grassroots to offset the role of big money in politics. United we are a force to be reakoned with. Divided we are losers.
Maybe it is time to invest in the Democratic Party through Howard Dean's Democracy Bonds, a way to support the DNC through small contributions from individual donors. This has been key in reducing the influence of big money on our party.
How are you going to celebrate? How are you going to savor history in the making?

For three weeks in the October of 2002, John Allen Muhammad and his 17-year-old companion Lee Boyd Malvo terrorized the country with a series of sniper attacks, carried out with lethal accuracy from a blue 1990 Chevrolet Caprice Sedan. Together, they murdered ten people and severely injured three others throughout Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC, leaving the rest of the country to ask the question that always arises in the wake of senseless shootings: Why?
In Blue Caprice, director Alexandre Moors attempts to answer the question with a cinematic retelling loosely inspired by the real-life events.
Starring Isaiah Washington as John and Tequan Richmond as Lee, the film departs slightly from the story of the real Beltway Snipers, choosing instead to focus less on the actual events of the attacks and more on the bizarre father-son relationship between the two men. What results is a disturbing journey into the psyches of two killers.
From its first moments the film departs from true events, beginning with Lee and John first meeting in Antigua, where the teen's mother has abandoned him. John takes Lee in, begins calling him his son, and eventually brings him to the United States, where after a brief period of normalcy he begins to divulge his plans to bring down the government by killing at least five people a day over a month.
Over the course of the film, Lee goes from being a reluctant participant to a willing and capable companion, shaped and molded into a killing machine, forced to change himself completely, forced to kill, all in a bid to gain the approval of the only father figure he knows. Washington turns in a chilling performance but it's Richmond, perhaps best known for his time on the hit sitcom Everybody Hates Chris, who provides the emotional center of the piece. His is a performance that conveys the shades of grey needed in a story like this, which places a slightly sympathetic light on two condemned, real-life murderers.
Using a fragmented, non-linear storytelling, Moors provides a film as quiet and methodical as the killers that it follows, opting a way from a more obvious, styilized approach.
That needling question of why, of course, never really gets answered. While that may be frustrating for viewers seeking a more direct telling of the Beltway Sniper shootings, the film's ambiguous tone that neither condemns nor absolves the criminals may be the only explanation we'll ever get.
The script is penned by R.F.I. Porto, and the film co-produced by Ron Simons (SimonSays Entertainment), alongside Isen Robbins, Aimee Schoof, Stephen Tedeschi, Brian O'Carroll, Kim Jackson and Will Rowbotham.
Sundance Selects will release the R-rated drama this Friday, September 13th.

Excellent trailer. Good actors. Very disturbing subject. I hope this movie wins some awards as well. I think it's good to see African American stretching themselves and doing dramas like this. Isaiah is a great actor he and Andre Braugher have them ability to really hold your attention. Then have a quiet intestity that explodes at the right time and moment but it's not over the top. I hope this opens more doors for Isaiah's career and his young co-star.

I agree with Jen; Why has this film not received more public attention and promotion? I wish this film would get half as much promotion as the awfully made, "Tyler Perry" films. Not only does this film deal with a very controversial topic circling American newspapers, legislation, and media, but the trailer promotes two very well given performances. It seems as though in recent years, films that have done exceptionally well at Sundance have been promoted more prominently than this film. Could it be because of the material? Or because the starring cast is black and not white?
Jen | September 9, 2013 11:02 AM
Why has the film not done any advertisements or bigger promotion? Is the market "too" crowded with adult, intelligent stories about African Americans?

Darlington, SC -- A South Georgia car dealer and an employee were killed Friday morning when a small plane they were traveling in crashed in Darlington County.
Cordele General Motors dealer Charles Hurt and an employee flew Hurt's private plane to South Carolina on business.
According to the FAA, the plane, a Piper Cherokee Lance, a single-engine plane, tail #N31911, went down Friday morning in a field near the Darlington Airport.
The Darlington County, SC Coroner identified the dead as, the pilot, 61-year-old William C. Hurt, and passenger, 72-year-old George W. White, both of Cordele.
They took off from Cordele about seven this morning on their way to an auto auction in Darlington, South Carolina.
Hurt was described as "Just a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. He loved his kids and grandkids and he loved his community," by Chamber of Commerce President Monica Simmon.
Charles Hurt was a member of the Crisp County Development Authority and a former member of the Crisp County Airport Board and the Chamber of Commerce board.
The coroner says that it looked like Hurt was trying to make an emergency landing, and the plane clipped some trees and crashed.

Scenario: You wake up this morning, remembering all the turmoil that led to the cancellation of UFC 151, which was scheduled for last night (Sat., Sept. 1, 2012) in Las Vegas, Nevada. You get online with the brief flickering of hope that it was all a dream and Jon Jones did, in fact, fight Dan Henderson.
Sadly you find this isn't the Matrix and you're not Neo, unable to shape the world as you see fit. This is, indeed, the real world and UFC 151 never was.
That means you didn't get the chance to come to MMAmania.com to watch highlights of "Bones" battling "Hendo," of which we would have inevitably had. It would have been a good fight, too, a contest between two of the very best in the light heavyweight division.
Instead, we got recaps and endless looks back at the circumstances surrounding the event cancellation. Which, quite frankly, sucks.
So here's the only way to try to make it better -- free fights of the men who were supposed to compete last night. After the jump you can watch Jon Jones successfully defend his 205-pound title for the first time by choking out Quinton Jackson and Dan Henderson send Michael Bisping's head into the cheap seats with arguably the greatest knockout in Octagon history at UFC 100.
Oh and Chael Sonnen vs. Anderson Silva from UFC 117 is thrown in for good measure.

Dan Henderson vs. Michael Bisping, UFC 100:

Shawna Forde
Delays and Trial
As the trial of Shawna Forde was about to start in Tucson, the city was rocked by another shooting with national implications. On January 8, 2011, Jared Loughner opened fire at a "Congress on your Corner" event at a local Safeway, shooting U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords in the head. Loughner also turned his gun on the crowd, shooting nineteen people resulting in six deaths. Among those killed was Christina Taylor-Green, a nine-year-old girl, the same age as Brisenia Flores.
After a few weeks' delay, the trial of Shawna Forde in the Pima County Superior Court finally began. On Thursday, January 25, Forde, 43, took her place at defense table to face two counts of first-degree felony murder for the deaths of Raul "Junior" Flores and his daughter, Brisenia, She was also charged with the attempted first-degree murder of Gina Gonzalez, and several lesser counts: burglary in the first-degree, two counts of aggravated assault, armed robbery, and aggravated armed robbery. The two first-degree murder charges were the most dangerous for Forde: If convicted, she would be eligible for the death penalty.
Due in large part to her work with her Minuteman American Defense group, Shawna Forde had an adamant group of defenders. Laine Lawless, a friend and Minuteman supporter, started a website called Justice for Shawna (http://www.justiceforshawnaforde.com/home) featuring the banner "racially profiled, false arrested [sic], political agenda prisoner". Lawless made news herself during the first week of the trial when she entered the courtroom wearing a wig and trench coat. Because she was listed by the prosecution as a potential witness, she was barred from sitting in on the trial (this is a common practice, known as witness sequestration, intended to prevent witnesses from changing their story to fit others' testimony). Lawless complained that she was a "citizen journalist" and as such had a First Amendment right to be in court. Judge John Leonardo threatened to jail her for contempt if she tried to enter the courtroom again on her own initiative.

In Boston, we had the honor of interviewing Professor Noam Chomsky, the "world's top intellectual" according to the New York Times. I was extremely excited to meet him because I had studied his work in school and admired his courage for speaking his convictions on the global stage.
As I tried to find his office in a perplexing MIT building that appeared as though the fabric of reality had collapsed in on itself, I flashed back to a philosophy class I had taken at American University. The class, "Greatest Minds of the 20th Century" had spent a week on Chomsky's work. This time we were not in his office to discuss linguistics or his groundbreaking refutation of B.F. Skinner's work on behavioral psychology (although I did spy two of Skinner's books on the shelf in Chomsky's office) but American identity.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson says his son, U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., wanted to hold a press conference to talk about his resignation but did not think he could do so without "breaking down."
Speaking to reporters Wednesday evening, the civil rights icon says his son resigned earlier in the day because he did not think he could do his job and regain his health at the same time. He says his son decided to concentrate on getting better.
Jackson has been largely out of sight in recent months as he has been treated for bipolar disorder and gastrointestinal issues. He is also under federal investigation.
The elder Jackson says his son's condition will take time to treat, but that he's confident he will recover.

Well my Big Blue Brothers congragulations to us on how hardcore we all are for the greatest organization in Pro Football.We've followed the offseason that was up in the air when most wouldn't, we've been watching film,reading scouting reports,and throwing out our two cents...now let's have some fun and see what we've got!
I'll throw out a few topics for prediction just for example,some obvious,some off the top of my head,but if you think you see something I didn't list throw it out there anyhow.For the sake of making it readable when I finalize mine I'll try to make mine structured like a list with(hopefully)just brief explanations,but no real format needs to be,you guys know what to do.
I'm actually gonna just throw out my 1st rounder prediction on the comment page and chime in later as things come to me,rather than list them in the fanpost body like I'm an expert..oh and all the trades you want obviously..
Sample #1: Who will be the Giants 1st round pick?Who should it be?Or just predict as many selections as you want.

No charges against US hacker
Gary McKinnon, who is wanted in the US after hacking into the Pentagon's computers, will not face charges in Britain. The CPS reviewed his case after the Government blocked his extradition to America in October on health grounds.
UFO hacker will not be tried in Britain for US crimes
Gary McKinnon, whose extradition to face charges of accessing U.S. government computers was halted, will not be tried in Britain.Read the full story
United States 'disappointed' by McKinnon decision
The United States has expressed its disappointment in the decision taken by the CPS not to prosecute Gary McKinnon. The US Embassy in London released a statement saying:
The United States was disappointed by the UK Home Secretary's decision not to extradite Gary McKinnon, particularly in light of the UK courts' and prior Home Secretaries' decisions that he should face trial in the United States.
We note that the Home Secretary acknowledged the seriousness of the crimes of which Mr. McKinnon is accused, and described this case as exceptional, indicating that her decision does not set a precedent for future cases.
Police and CPS explain McKinnon decision
The Director of Public Prosecutions and the Assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Service released a joint statement explaining their decision not to take further action against Gary McKinnon.
They identified a number of reasons why pursuing a prosecution would not be in the public interest:
- Gary McKinnon is was originally supposed to be tried in the US; in October 2012, when the Home Secretary decided not to extradite him, there was no live criminal investigation against him in the UK, nor had there been for many years
- As far as building a case against McKinnon in the UK was concerned, "the harm occurred in the US", the investigation was launched in the US, most of the witnesses are in the US and nearly all the physical evidence is in the US
- US authorities, though willing to co-operate with a prosecution, would not agree transfer witnesses or evidence to the UK
- The "prospect of a conviction in the UK which reflects the full extent of his alleged criminality are not high"
'CPS have declared decision not to prosecute McKinnon'
The Crown Prosecution Service have declared their decision not to prosecute Gary McKinnon in the UK.
They state that the appropriate jurisdiction would be the United States, which is an interesting decision bearing in mind Mr McKinnon was originally arrested and interviewed by British police in 2002.
Mr McKinnon has always indicated that he would be willing to plead guilty to an offence under the Misuse of Computers Act but clearly cannot do so if he is not going to be prosecuted.
– Gary McKinnon's solicitors Kaim Todner
Mr McKinnon's legal team remains aware that his extradition warrant is still outstanding and will seek to explore other ways in which Mr McKinnon can receive complete closure on this long saga.
McKinnon won't face any further criminal action
Computer hacker Gary McKinnon will face no further criminal action, the Director of Public Prosecutions, Keir Starmer QC, has said.
The decision follows a review of the case after the Government's decision to block his extradition to the United States in October on health grounds.
Mr McKinnon, 46, from Wood Green, north London, would have faced up to 60 years in prison if convicted in the US.

According to research firm Gartner, "Mobile phones will overtake PCs as the most common Web access devices worldwide by 2013 . . . Gartner estimates the combined installed base of smartphones and browser-equipped enhanced phones will surpass 1.82 billion units by 2013, eclipsing the total of 1.78 billion PCs by then."
Despite the fact that Mobile is the fastest growing marketing medium (even faster than social media), only 61% of the Fortune 500 say they have mobile strategies on the way. Why is this figure not 100%? Imagine all the people who work and do not sit in a cubicle all day long – construction workers, teachers, firefighters, police and so on. If you are a large business, why would you not want to reach your potential by being mobile ready?
Currently, in the United States, almost 1 out of 5 cell phone subscribers use smart phones. This means that there is already a mobile internet market of 51 million consumers. Let's be conservative and say that 80% of the US population has mobile internet access by 2013 – that is 200 million consumers – a growth of 150 million in 3 years!
My company has an awesome mobile friendly site. Google also does a great job with their mobile version of their site. I hope to see more mobile formatted sites, especially from the Fortune 500. This will likely be a movement to originate at the smaller up and comers and make a dent in the mobile web.

The U.S. Forest Service Carson Ranger District will be conducting a 29 acre understory burn in the Whites Creek drainage off of Mount Rose Highway on Wednesday.
The burn should only take one day to complete and the trailhead will be closed to public use during burning activities.
The Forest Service chose an area near homes as a way to protect the neighborhood. It says prescribed burns are a cheaper more efficient tool than mulching or sending hand crews to cut up brush and also helps the eco-system.
Firefighters will stay on scene through the night to watch for any possible hot spots.

(Brooklyn, NY) March 8, 2010 – Brooklyn Public Library (BPL) is pleased to kick off a three-month long fundraising campaign which encourages community involvement and investment in Brooklyn's public libraries.
During these challenging economic times, more Brooklynites than ever before are using Brooklyn Public Library free resources and programs. BPL is also affected by the difficult economy, and to ensure that the budget crisis does not affect its quality programs and materials, BPL is launching the Support Our Shelves (SOS) campaign starting March 1.
Support Our Shelves is a three-month fundraising campaign in which BPL is appealing to community residents to give back whatever they can to help build their collections in this time of economic uncertainty. Every donation counts, from one dollar to a thousand dollars, and donors can give to their local library or any branch they choose. Each donation helps get closer to the $500,000 goal and provide the materials that our libraries need.
In efforts of helping us to reach this year's goal, the following corporate/foundation sponsors have pledged their financial support:
Con Edison - Lead Sponsor
Brooklyn Community Foundation
Charles H. Revson Foundation
Durst Organization/New York Water Taxi
TD Bank
As part of this year's campaign, those wishing to contribute can also do so by making a mobile donation. By simply texting the word "BOOKS" to 50555, BPL supporters near and far can make a $10 donation right from the palms of the hands.
"All the reasons you use your library are all the reasons to give," said Dionne Mack-Harvin, Executive Director. "Support Our Shelves will help to ensure that your library can continue to provide the free services and materials that you and every Brooklynite need to build a better and richer life. Last year's SOS campaign was a huge success. Collectively we raised more than $315,000 and purchased more than 27,000 books, DVDs and CDs, the equivalent of five miles between our Central and Kings Highway libraries, or a small library collection."
The Support Our Shelves campaign will run from March 1 through May 31. Donations can be made directly at local libraries, online at www.brooklynpubliclibrary.org/support or by phone at 718.230.2738.

According to NBAA, the Transportation Security Administration is pushing to issue a new proposed business aircraft security program by year-end. The TSA told the association that the new proposal will be "markedly different" from the Large Aircraft Security Program (LASP) released in October 2008.
Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics
Transportation Security Administration general aviation manager Brian Delauter told attendees at the National Air Transportation Associationπs FBO Leadership Conference early last month that he hopes the newest version of the Large Aircraft Security Program (Lasp) will be ready for release in early April.
Making good on testimony before the Senate Commerce Committee in December, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano has ordered the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to back off from tougher security rules for general aviation that were first proposed in October 2008.
The proposed Large Aircraft Security Program (LASP), the target of controversy and ridicule since it was announced more than a year ago, will undergo more massaging before it is released as a supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM) "before the end of 2010."
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is developing a supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM) for the Large Aircraft Security Program (LASP) that will incorporate feedback received from pilots, airport officials and others during the program's initial public comment period.
The February 27 deadline for the public to submit comments about the Transportation Security Administration's proposal to regulate general aviation operations under the Large Aircraft Security Program (LASP) is rapidly approaching. By January 20, nearly 2,000 comments had been submitted to the TSA (although many are duplicates).
The first of the Transportation Security Administration's series of town hall meetings, held today at New York's Westchester County Airport, drew an overflow crowd of approximately 250 business aircraft operators and other interested parties eager to speak their minds about the agency's initial Large Aircraft Security Program.
The December 3 town hall meeting planned by the Transportation Security Administration to hear what general aviation operators think about the Large Aircraft Security Program (LASP) proposal has been tentatively rescheduled to January 6 next year. Plans are to hold the meetings in White Plains, N.Y.; Atlanta; Chicago; Van Nuys, Calif.; and Houston.

If everything went according to plan for the Bruins this season, Matt Bartkowski would not be playing hockey right now. In fact, he wouldn't even be a member of the organization.
Back in late March, the Bruins thought they had a deal with the Calgary Flames to acquire veteran forward Jarome Iginla, the most coveted piece on the trade market at that time. In exchange for Iginla, the Bruins were to send Bartkowski, along with Alexander Khokhlachev and a 2013 first-round pick, to Calgary. It was nearly a done deal, with Calgary GM Jay Feester telling Bruins GM Peter Chiarelli that they had won the Iginla sweepstakes.
Instead, Iginla rejected the idea of being traded to Boston at the last second and said that he would only waive his no-trade clause for a deal to Pittsburgh. A few hours and (I'm assuming) a few dozen ignored calls from Chiarelli later, Feester accepted a deal from Pittsburgh.
Jarome Iginla was officially a Penguin.
In response to the deal that robbed them of a superstar and provided additional ammunition to one of their top conference rivals, the Bruins sought out veteran Jaromir Jagr and sent Lane MacDermid, Cody Payne and a conditional pick to the Stars for him.
And after all this...Matt Bartkowski? Still a Bruin.
Fast forward to May and Bartkowksi is a big piece of a Bruins' playoff squad that has clawed it's way to the Eastern Conference Finals for the second time in three years. Injuries to veteran B's defensemen such as Dennis Seidenberg, Andrew Ference and Wade Redden led to Bartkowksi's number being called, to which he rose to the occasion.
The 24-year old has averaged over 20 minutes a night on the ice since his debut in Game 5 against the Leafs and has been surprisingly impressive, especially during Game 7's epic comeback against Toronto, when Seidenberg was forced out of the game 37 seconds into his first shift. His added depth has allowed to Bruins to match up well with opponents and, equally as important, avoid inserting Aaron "Disaster Waiting To Happen" Johnson into the lineup.
And who waits for the Bruins in the opposing locker room during the upcoming Conference Finals? The top-seeded, uber-talented Penguins, of course. The same Penguins that Bartkowski grew up rooting for in his native Mt. Lebanon, Pennsylvania. The same Penguins that Bartkowski matched up against in his first three career NHL games. The same Penguins that saved him from becoming a Calgary Flame.
It seemed inevitable that the Bruins and Penguins would meet at some point in the playoffs, and while Iginla and Jagr (who won two Cups while with the Penguins from 1990-2001) are sharing most of the spotlight heading into Saturday's Game 1, it's Bartkowski's story that may intrigue me the most. The overlooked prospect making the most of a second chance with a shot to take down his hometown team for a spot in the Stanley Cup Finals? Storybook stuff.
But will the defenseman get his storybook ending? The Penguins are favored in the series and, with the imminent return of Ference and the emergence of Torey Krug as an offensive weapon, Bartkowski's spot in the lineup is anything but certain. That being said, the kid has dealt with uncertainties pretty well thus far in 2013.
Regardless of whether Bartkowski winds up as a scratch or not, what he has brought to this team for much of the past month proves that he certainly didn't play himself out of a lineup spot on this team and, despite the circumstances surrounding the Iginla trade, the Bruins are very lucky that he's not playing golf somewhere right now.

and cover it with felt. The spool of magnet wire sits
underneath this edge on the floor.
The wire comes up from the spool, over the felt-covered edge of the platform, and onto the bobbin,
allowing the wire to feed straight onto the bobbin.
(A length of yarn is used in Figure B to clearly show
the wire path.)
Before threading the wire onto the bobbin, tape
it to the platform and lightly rub its free end with
600-grit emery paper for a few strokes to remove
the insulation, so that you can solder it later.
Thread about 2" of wire through the small hole
in the top of the bobbin, and tape it in place on
top with a very small piece of blue masking tape
(Figure C). Near the felt-covered rounded edge of
the platform, place another small piece of felt on
top of the wire and then place a small weight on top
of the felt: the wire is sandwiched between 2 pieces
of felt, and the weight provides constant resistance
for the bobbin winder to pull against (Figure D).
For me, weights between 50g–200g (2oz–7oz)
worked well. Put a few very small pieces of masking
tape somewhere on the platform so they'll be avail-

Using your left hand to control the foot pedal,
carefully wind the wire onto the bobbin, moving it up
and down slightly with your right hand to distribute
it fairly evenly. There's a narrow rim on the bobbin,
and I fill it to this point.
When the bobbin is filled (Figure E), tape the long
wire to the platform and use emery paper to strip
the insulation from it, rubbing toward the bobbin.
Cut the wire in the middle of the stripped area, holding onto the wound bobbin with your fingers.
Take the bobbin off the winder, holding the wire coil
in place, and wind the remainder of the wire onto the
bobbin toward the top, leaving a tail about 2" long.
Remove the tape from the original wire end on the
top of the bobbin, and tape the tail onto the edge of
the top, leaving the center hole open (Figure F).
Repeat these instructions to wind as many
bobbins as you have patience for — the wire is very
fragile, and the pickups are easy to damage until
they're mounted, so it's good to have spares.

Well well well. It seems as if the sky is falling! How foolish of me to proudly criticize the skeptics of the Dolphins organization. Or am I?
Make no mistake about it: MIA vs. CLE was a complete debacle. Even if we pulled out a win, the game should have never been that close, or as nerve-wracking. But does this game, and further, this 0-3 start, indicate that our team is fundamentally screwed up, and that, we need a complete restructuring? Again, nonsense.
Before I begin, let me start by saying I was a little reckless in the comments of my previous fanpost. People called me an "optimist", and I didn't disagree. How could I be an optimist if I was being critical of the team? Of course, being a fan, I have a bias to be cheerful about the future season. But I try not to let that bias get in the way of me analyzing what are the team's weaknesses. My perceived optimism stemmed from looking at our problems as being fixable, instead of being eternally damned. I still feel that way.
It is important for me to declare my aim for writing this in comparison to individuals who place all the blame on Chad Henne, for instance. This is not to say those individuals are right or wrong-they are clearly wrong, as I have repeatedly shown-but that they have no merit in their opinions other than being emotionally charged. The point of my posts is to make this less emotional and more rational. From there, we can help determine what the problem is with the team. In other words, spouting off opinions at one another doesn't resolve anything.
There are some who won't care for this discussion, and will respond with more emotional spew. As I mentioned in my previous fanpost, this is not for them. This is for the Dolfan that is trying to understand why his team is 0-3 and assumes he does not know what the answer is, which is a big leap of faith for some.
Today, one of the problem-children I mentioned reared its ugly head yet again: poor red-zone conversion. "Any Given Sunday" is the NFL motto. Playing games close, like our head coach likes to do, can back-fire. And today is the combined effect of playing an inferior team while being incapable of punching it in inside the 20-yard line. We had 4 red-zone opportunities (not even including Reggie Bush's fumble), but only scored 1 TD. Simply put, one more score would have put the game away.
Blaming the defensive play, the other problem-area from before, in this game won't cut it. Yes, they let the Browns go 80 yards on the game-winning drive. But they played solid defense most of the game and should never have been put in the position to win the game for us. QB pressure was really the only problem this defense had. Holding a team to 10 points for 57:37 minutes of football cannot be criticized, unless you considered our defense to be "shutdown", like the 2000 Ravens. It is not, and should not be considered as such. But it is good enough to win when paired with our offense.
So then if we improved in one problem area but not the other, the question is: is the red-zone conversion a permanent problem with the team, preventing them from being as competitive as their potential allows? Before answering, I should point out that a combination of my recommendations for solving our red-zone problems before the game -- screen play and Daniel Thomas -- were executed perfectly. Somebody listened for one drive ;-)
But anyways, let me make a couple of observations:
(1) The o-line is atrocious in pass protection. Even Jake Long is struggling, which highlights that this is the weakest part of the entire team. Despite that, and despite the 5 sacks allowed, we still had the opportunity to dominate this game from how easy we were able to move the ball. That should show that while the o-line is below average, it does not stop us from driving, setting us up to win games by...scoring points.
(2) Reggie Bush is the new wild-cat. I hope I wasn't the only one who noticed that Reggie Bush stalled drives today. He is being used improperly by Dabboll. Why can't he be used in the passing game? Because we need a RB blocker. The o-line cannot handle the rush themselves. But again, his poor utilization may have stalled 2-3 drives, it was not fatal to our scoring opportunity.
(3) Chad Henne is 9/23, 4 TD, INT, 2 Sacks in the red-zone. While I ignore the anti-Henne fanatics who are borderline religious with their convictions that he is rotten to the core (sustaining eleven 60+ drives in 3 games is good enough to be a starter in the NFL, but not enough for his dogmatic critics), his completion % inside the 20 is worrisome.
Henne has been below average in the red zone. That much is true. But how is it possible that a quarterback can be successful between the 20's (the statistics back up this observation. For Pennington lovers, Henne is achieving higher passing first downs per game than Chad did in 2008) but then fail in the red? What changes?
The answer is plainly obvious: the length of the field. For a defender, the boundary is your friend. The defense, in the red zone, gains one extra boundary: the back of the end zone. It dramatically effects how a defense can play the pass. Safeties don't have to drop back so far. Linebackers the same. There is less space for a receiver to find an opening.
This is why I believe running backs dominate red zone touches. Let us compare 2009 RB red zone touches with WR red zone touches. The top WR was Brandon Marshall with 29. Maurice Jones Drew has 74. That is more than 2.5 times the amount of the top WR. Why is this? Well, the simple answer is that it is easier to get the ball to your RB than to your WR. A handoff is all that is needed. Or, a sample flat route, which involves more open space than what the back of the end zone provides. In other words, in the red zone, it is easier to gain yardage with your RB than with your WRs.
Our base offense is running at a 58% pass / 42% run ratio. That is very aggressive. The problem I am identifying is this: Brian Dabboll is too aggressive in the red zone. What works in between the 20s doesn't work in the red zone, with a shortened field. How many times has a RB been targeted or touched the ball in the red zone? Not many. And yet 2 out of 4 of Henne's TD passes have come from RBs. Dabboll is too obsessed with getting Brandon Marshall and the WRs the ball. This leads to greater likelihood of a sack from the poor o-line, leading to long third down conversions, which are more difficult with a shortened field. Many of Henne's overthrown passes in the end zone are because he has no where else to go with the ball.
I only dissected the most glaring issue on this team. Fortunately, this is an issue that is correctable, unlike the offensive-line play, which is dependent on talent (or lack thereof). This is not an elixir; this team on defense still needs to put more pressure on the QB, and to return to form in the secondary (of course Chris Clemons was out again vs. CLE, along with Vontae Davis, but that is no excuse). Also, game management has to be scrutinized. Tony Sparano does not like to try to blow out a team. Our countless close-call wins over 4 years must be a result of his game philosophy. He is happy to lead by one or two field goals versus trying to lead by one or two touchdowns. Will his mindset change with his job on the line?
In conclusion, we are playing winning football, just not winning. We need to correct our red zone performance, plain and simple. If it is corrected, and we are still losing, then this team really is damned. But there is no reason why the sky is falling. There are still 13 games left.

Justin Timberlake was on ESPN's SportsCenter recently, and the two co-hosts asked him 10 sports-related questions. Question No. 9 was whom he had a "man crush" on. His answer: reigning NBA MVP...
Peyton Manning has agreed in principle to become part owner of the Memphis Grizzlies.
Justin Timberlake is part of the ownership group that is buying the Memphis Grizzlies.
Check out our Bears @ Eagles PreGame Open Thread for last minute thoughts, injury reports, late links, funny pictures, motivational songs, and pictures of Mila Kunis...
Justin Timberlake trolled Joe Buck during a fourth inning All-Star Game interview.
29-year-old dude Mike, whose fiance Julie is a huge JT fan. Julie's mom - doing the natural thing when it comes to making dreams come true - sent a letter to Oprah Winfrey's show and explained her...
A little more proof that Justin Timberlake's involvement with golf needs to be greater and encouraged.
The most searched-for Internet image of all time occurred six years ago at the Super Bowl... but it had nothing at all to do with sports.
Justin Timberlake's Mirimichi golf course in Memphis may be the first Audobon International Classic Sanctuary, but what about the other 16,000 courses in the United States?

i was reading this article by the Toronto Star writer Dave Feschuk and I had a flashback to the bad ol' days of Steve Patterson. Man, remember when we had all these needs? And now our biggist need is more time in the game to play all our guys. I mean, how are we gonna find playing time with all these guys? KP is an artist...nee...a master gardener. This current blazers is his masterwork, a garden of basketball. . 100 % organic. The victories taste sweeter then the ones during the Trader Bob era because we've watched them grow. They taste earned. Good for you too. Low in fiber. No saturated fat now that Z-bo's gone.
Read the article here:
It's pretty hilarious for its bitter, bitter tone (member that?) and then the comments that just kinda melt into collective head banging over the drafting of Andre (wet penne) Bargnani OVER Barak ORoyma and LaSmoothus AllRight
Hey don't be mad canada. Shhhh. Why you actin' like that? All crazy. You know we love you. Shhhhhhh, Yeah Naismith naismith whatever. Shhhhhh.

How will we remember 2011 in Mixed Martial Arts history? So much happened in our sport this year, from huge business moves to epic fights to legends falling. Here, we'll attempt to recap some of the biggest stories of the year and figure out just how to define MMA in 2011.
If 2011 was marked by the fall of the old guard, it was also marked by the rise of the new guard - or at least, the singular face of that new guard in MMA. The man who embodies the idea of pushing the sport forward - of setting a new standard for what can be achieved in the confines of an MMA contest. Can there be any doubt who this is?
Jon Jones is the best fighter of 2011 - that much is obvious and shouldn't even be up for debate. The question some have asked is: Is Jon Jones's 2011 the best single year for any MMA fighter in history? I'd have to say it is.
Jones started the year as an exciting prospect who many fans had high hopes for in the future. He ended the year as the UFC Light Heavyweight champion, with two successful title defenses and, in just one year, now finds himself only two fights away from cleaning out the upper most ranks of the UFC's most notoriously stacked and competitive division. Along the way, he dominated elite names in ways we had never seen them beaten before - Lyoto Machida choked into unconsciousness by a nasty guillotine variation, Rampage Jackson made to look like an amateur on the feet, Mauricio Rua unable to mount any offense. Jones faced some of the very best the division had to offer, and he crushed them all.
As good as this year was for the young champion, we still end the year with questions about him. How will he deal with the heavy hands of Dan Henderson? Will he finally meet Rashad Evans and add the former teammate to his list of victims? Why was Lyoto able to find success against him? And the big question - just how dominant will this kid be?
That's what is so exciting about Jon Jones in 2011. It's not just what he has accomplished, but the sense of what he still can accomplish. He's extremely young, both in age and in his career, and shows improvements every fight. Today, he is the best 205 pounder in the world, the best 205 pounder since Chuck Liddell, and already in talks as one of the top 2 pound for pound fighters in the world. Just how high can he go?
Jon Jones today reminds me a lot of his sort-of teammate Georges St. Pierre a few years ago. Young, destructive, and the kind of fighter that looked ready to elevate the sport to new levels. St. Pierre's career took an interesting path where a shocking loss led to increasingly cautious and fan-displeasing performances, while at the same time becoming one of the sport's biggest stars and most dominant champions. GSP has indeed helped bring the sport to new levels of popularity, but he is no longer pushing the envelope of what is possible inside the cage. Is this the fate that awaits Jones? Will he meet his own Matt Serra? And if he does, how will he respond? What does the future hold for this young phenom?
I don't have those answers - no one does. But I can't wait to find out in 2012.
Check back all week for more of 2011 in MMA History.

CORPUS CHRISTI (Kiii News) – Chairwoman of the American Diabetes Association Grete McBath, joins John Thomas on Tuesday's 3 New First Edition to talk about screening yourself for diabetes.
McBath asks that you go to diabetes.org and do the online test to see if you may need to take it further and go to the Dr. for a thorough screening for diabetes.
Diabetes Alert month is over, but the Stop Diabetes campaign will be starting soon. Another event coming up is the Camp Sand Castle which helps kids with diabetes interact with other kids with the same affliction.
McBath adds that Corpus Christi has a lot of health fairs to help diabetics to keep track of their diabetes, and to help others be screened for diabetes.
For more information on diabetes, please go to diabetes.org.

FORT MYERS BEACH, Fla. - "It's kind of nice to just be a little bit more relaxed," said Roxanne Applebay, of Fontana, CA, visiting with her husband, Bill.
Roxanne and Bill Applebay can't get enough of Fort Myers Beach.
"our sand is course your sand is powder," said Bill. "The ocean's warmer. Our ocean is really cold."
Neither can Malik Nau and his girlfriend, who're visiting from Miami.
"I like it," said Nau. "I like being around a lot of people."
Soon, they won't be the only ones. By November, an influx of seasonal residents, or snowbirds, will hit the sand. For the nearly two million visitors expected this year, restaurants, bars and stores will see a big boost in business.
"Will staff almost double?" asked Fox 4 reporter Gabrielle Sarann to Alexa Browning, an employee at Winds. "Yes."
At winds off Estero Boulevard, owners are making room for more inventory, the latest styles and souvenirs. Soon they'll need extra help.
"Probably have about four or five people working each shift," said Browning. "We won't have any time to go on break."
And at the Sun Deck Inn & Suites, just before you exit the island, the property is getting spruced up.
"Doing painting, landscaping around the building, new linens in the rooms," said Rick Sprole, the owner.
Sprole says sales are already up more than a quarter over last year.
"This has been one of the busiest summers we've had," said Sprole.
Season in southwest Florida runs from October through April.

For all the pessimists out there
Here is an excerpt from blog by Randy Karracker at 101ESPN (full article in link). "Yes, we live in a negative society, and we live in the Show Me State. But football fans in St. Louis have something to be REALLY excited about, and it would be a shame if we wasted our emotion in a negative way, rather than enjoying something we've never seen…the evolution of a young, stud quarterback."

Frank Bruni
Earl Wilson/The New York Times
Frank Bruni, an Op-Ed columnist for The New York Times since June 2011, joined the newspaper in 1995. Over his years at The Times he has worn a wide variety of hats, including chief restaurant critic (from June 2004 through August 2009) and Rome bureau chief (2002 to 2004).
He has also written two New York Times best sellers: a memoir, "Born Round," that was published by Penguin Press in 2009, and "Ambling Into History," a chronicle of George W. Bush's campaign for the presidency, published by HarperCollins in 2002. That same year HarperPerennial reissued, in paperback, "A Gospel of Shame: Children, Sexual Abuse and the Catholic Church," of which he was a co-author. (It was initially published by Viking in 1993.)
Mr. Bruni came to The Times from The Detroit Free Press, where he wrote a profile of a convicted child molester that was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in feature writing. At The Times he first worked for the metropolitan desk and, along with three colleagues, won the George Polk Award for metropolitan reporting for coverage of the child-abuse death of Elisa Izquierdo. He later relocated to the Washington bureau, covering Congress and then Mr. Bush's presidential campaign and his first year in office. He left Washington for Rome.
He has consistently contributed to the Times's Sunday magazine, and during two periods, most recently from 2009 to 2011, was one of its staff writers. For the magazine he has profiled an array of prominent politicians and entertainers, including Hillary Clinton and J. J. Abrams. His work has also frequently appeared in the newspaper's Travel, Arts & Leisure and Book Review sections. From 2010 to 2011, he additionally wrote a column on bars and drinking, "The Tipsy Diaries."
Born in White Plains, N.Y., on Oct. 31, 1964, Mr. Bruni received a B.A. degree (Phi Beta Kappa) from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, where he was a Morehead scholar, in 1986. He received an M.S. degree in journalism, with highest honors, from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in 1988, graduating second in his class and winning a Pulitzer Traveling Fellowship.

Thus quoteth Alan Rickman in the film _Dogma_, as sampled in the intro to "Inhuman" – perhaps one of the funniest and most appropiately-themed samples I've ever heard in any form of music.
What can be said about Origin that has not yet already? Probably very little. However, I'll give it a shot.
The instrumentation is simply ridiculous in its delivery. The endless shredding on the three sets of fretboards from guitarists Paul and Jeremy, and bassist Mike Flores, combined with the explosive and machine gun-like battery of John J. Longstreth, make for never-ending stretches of barrage (in perhaps three tempos: fast, ultra-fast, and inhuman fast); it is this jazz-like unpredictability that makes Origin's music a risk to anyone with a knack for headbanging (one is fairly likely to either break their neck or even be decapitated as a result!). And let's not forget the vocals: James' berserk, chillingly inhuman grunting, screaming, and growling (often dovetailed by equally effective backing vocals from Paul and Jeremy) recite often very long and complicated passages of verse with an almost absurd dexterity.
This is technical music from another dimension. Highly recommended for fans of the Dillinger Escape Plan, Meshuggah, and some of the more or less "typical" technical death metal bands like Morbid Angel and Nile. For more great over-the-top technical death, check out Necrophagist and Psyopus.
Finally, I'd recommend putting IcyHot on your neck *before* hitting the PLAY button when this CD is in your player.

Looks like Ginn will indeed split. It's kinda suprising to me. I know he could make lots of money in the NFL but I thought he needed just a little more help on his routes before he made the jump. He's fast though so maybe he'll be enough to make plays on the next level.
Pittman is also entering the NFL Draft.
