MUNSTER | Times No. 1 Munster coach Steve Lopez believed it was important for his Mustangs to get off to a fast start in Wednesday's tennis match with No. 2 Valparaiso.
"They played us very tough last year," Lopez said. "We didn't really want a repeat of that close call."
They didn't get it. The Mustangs came out of the gate fast and strong, building an early lead en route to a convincing 4-1 win over the Vikings.
Munster (2-0) jumped out to an early lead behind the play of doubles teams, winning 6-0, 6-2 at No. 1 and 6-2, 6-2 at No. 2.
"This was a good measurement for us on where we are as a team right now," said Munster No. 1 doubles player Nathan Konanmuri. "At No. 1 doubles, we wanted to start out fast against Valpo and set the tone for the match. We did a good job of being aggressive and staying aggressive."
A lack of aggression on the Vikings' part did not go unnoticed by Valparaiso coach Tim Shideler.
"We were not aggressive enough today, especially at doubles," Shideler said. "We were hoping to give them a better match today than we did. Munster took it to us, bottom line. We didn't match their intensity."
At No. 1 singles, Munster's Jack Heiniger defeated Valpo's Ben Kalisch 6-1, 6-2.
"Every loss can be a learning experience," Kalisch said afterwards. "Jack did a very good job of attacking me in specific areas of my game. Today showed me what I need to work on for the next match. So there is something to be gained from today."
Munster started the day ranked No. 8 in the state, Valparaiso No. 20.
"These are the top two tennis teams in the region," Lopez said. "There is an intense tennis rivalry between the schools. We wanted to come out today and lay claim to the top spot in the region."
Marty Pochop took the only point for the Vikings (2-1) with a 6-3, 6-3 win at No. 2 singles.
"This match is always a very tough match mentally," he said. "Munster is a very tough team. I think I did a good job of staying focused and on my game plan during my match today. This will help my confidence going forward."

Atlantic Basin Outlook
The Weather Channel has released the August update to the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season outlook.
Slight Upward Revision
The updated forecast calls for a total of 14 named storms, 7 of which are expected to become hurricanes, including 3 major hurricanes (Category 3 or higher on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale). These forecast numbers are generally near to slightly above the long-term average from 1950-2011 (12 named storms, 7 hurricanes, 3 major hurricanes) and below the averages for the current active era from 1995-2011 (15 named storms, 8 hurricanes, 4 major hurricanes).
The August update is also a slight upward revision from the July outlook, which had called for 13 named storms including 6 hurricanes. There is no change to the number of major hurricanes expected.
Already this season we've seen nine named storms, the first of which, Alberto, formed on May 19, a little less than two weeks before the official start of the season on June 1.
There have been three hurricanes already this season, but none has reached Category 3 on the Saffir-Simpson scale.
(MORE: Tropics 2012's Strange Start)
So Far This Season
So Far This Season
Reasoning Behind the Outlook
The August update cites the recent uptick in activity as part of the justification for upping the total seasonal forecast.
"We have already had eight named storms and three hurricanes, and there is still about two-thirds of the season remaining," said Dr. Todd Crawford, Chief Meteorologist for Weather Services International (WSI), a part of The Weather Channel Companies. Dr. Crawford made his remarks shortly before Isaac became the ninth named storm of the season.
Crawford added, "During recent emerging El Nino events, six to nine named storms and three to five hurricanes have formed after mid-August. This data, along with similar guidance from our statistical models have led us to increase our numbers again."
Crawford said that warming ocean temperatures in the North Atlantic may be offset by the emerging El Nino, which tends to disrupt the environment tropical cyclones need to flourish by creating increased wind shear in the tropical Atlantic Basin.
(MORE: What is El Nino? | Origination)
The favored track for any potential future tropical cyclones may be about to change as well. "The current, cooler pattern in the eastern half of the country is more favorable for storms recurving out into the Atlantic or impacting the East Coast," Crawford said. "However, as we head into September, we expect the evolving large-scale pattern to favor more southward-tracking storms and a greater Gulf threat."
History Shows Be Prepared Every Season!
Key hurricane season prediction statements
"Through scientists at WSI, The Weather Channel has been producing hurricane seasonal forecasts for the Atlantic Ocean since 2006," says Dr. Peter Neilly, Vice President, Global Forecasting Services.
"The forecasts are based on state-of-the-science techniques and inputs such as patterns of ocean temperatures in both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The Weather Channel forecasts have proven quite accurate and generally predict the number of storms within two each year."
"However, it is important to note that our forecasts are for the total number of storms that may occur anywhere within the Atlantic Ocean, and do not attempt to predict the number of storms that will make landfall in the U.S.," says Neilly.
(WeatherREADY: Hurricane safety tips)
As Senior Meteorologist Stu Ostro (find him on Facebook | Twitter) points out, "Some businesses such as those who are clients of Weather Services International (WSI) find value in hurricane season forecasts. The total number of storms is of interest to me because it matters for how busy I am during the season; for example, there wasn't a U.S. hurricane landfall in either 2009 or 2010, but the former had 9 storms and the latter 19."
"Nevertheless, as I am on record many times as saying, and as is The Weather Channel's philosophy, these forecasts absolutely cannot accurately predict critical details such as where or how many landfalls will occur and people in hurricane-prone areas should be equally prepared every year regardless of seasonal outlooks."
Ostro adds, "In 1983 there were only four named storms, but one of them was Alicia, a Category 3 which hit the Houston-Galveston area and caused almost as many direct fatalities there as Andrew did in South Florida."
1992 season included four hurricanes and one U.S. landfall (Category 5 Andrew)
"While the saying might appear trite, Andrew and Alicia exemplify that truly all it takes is one."
On the opposite side of the spectrum from those two relatively inactive hurricane seasons that each had a single devastating landfall was the 2010 season.
That year we saw a total of 12 hurricanes in the Atlantic Basin. In all, there were 19 named storms, which tied 1995 for the third most on record during a season.
(MORE: 2010 season recap)
2010 hurricane season inlcuded 12 hurricanes and no U.S. landfalls
Despite the large number of storms that year, not a single hurricane and only one tropical storm made landfall in the United States.
That said, some U.S. impacts did occur, including four cyclones bringing tropical storm conditions to some part of the country. However, most of the damage and, in many cases, casualties occurred in other countries.

From my recent trip to Los Angeles, I can see why the parking deal for Cincinnati is so great for the parking meter operating company. The money is in the parking fines.
The poor unwitting visitors and residents end up paying parking fines of $50 to $100 for overstaying a parking space. The meter company can easily generate $ 100,000 or more a month in parking fines in one local neighborhood.
In this particular suburb of LA, they set the "No Parking" times at the peak visiting hours for local restaurants and shops. For example, no parking from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. A visitor would assume the sign was for rush hour traffic in the morning, however if you look closely at the sign it says "PM." One car in our dinner party did get a $50 fine for his oversight. I would have received a ticket as well, if I had not been warned by a local resident.
These parking traps are patrolled constantly by paid meter readers, as this method of legal theft is condoned by the city and provides a large source of revenue.

Torture in Zim is in SA cops' ambit
The Constitutional Court says the police must investigate all crimes against humanity brought to their notice.
The Constitutional Court says the police must investigate all crimes against humanity brought to their notice.
The Constitutional Court has ruled that the SAPS are obliged to investigate claims of torture committed in Zimbabwe.
Patients are being turned away from hospitals as doctors strike for better wages, amid claims the state is refusing to even discuss their concerns.
A lawyer involved in the case to release the secret report believes the highest of stakes are on the line.
Zimbabwe's first lady Grace Mugabe has announced her candidacy to succeed her husband, 90-year-old president Robert Mugabe, when he leaves office.
Zimbabwe's first lady addressed her third rally in a week, this time in Harare, but critics have not taken her call for unity of purpose seriously.
Zim's first lady used her maiden political rally to lash out at those in Zanu-PF who want Mugabe to step down but are too afraid to say so publicly.
Even the state appears to hang on every word of Walter Magaya and Emmanuel Makandiwa.
In a report released this week, a crisis group warns of the possibility of Zimbabwe degenerating into conflict should the economy continue to fall.
Desperate government even removes rebates on foodstuffs imported by welfare groups.
Grace Mugabe - a recent PhD graduate and leader of Zanu-PF's women's league - may be destined to take the helm from her 90-year-old husband Robert.

Robert Mugabe has said Jacob Zuma should cooperate with other SADC countries instead of trying to turn the region into a market for SA's products.
Critics have castigated President Robert Mugabe and the Zimbabwean government for imprinting Zanu-PF values on the theme of the SADC summit.
Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe's wife has been chosen to lead the ruling party's women's wing, propelling her into the powerful politburo.
In an attempt to secure her own future, the first lady has become a willing pawn in Zanu-PF's internal succession wars.
The appointment of Robert Mugabe's wife as leader of the Zanu-PF Women's League could propel Grace Mugabe into the party's powerful politburo.

Top Poker Websites Charged with Slew of Crimes
Three of the largest Internet poker websites are facing a stacked deck.
In a Manhattan court today (April 15), eleven defendants including the heads of the poker sites PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker and Absolute Poker were charged with bank fraud, money laundering and illegal gambling.
The government also issued a civil money laundering complaint for $3 billion against the poker companies, their assets and the assets of several payment processors associated with them.
Restraining orders were also issued to seize 76 bank accounts in 14 countries, and to take control of five Internet domain names.
These defendants, knowing full well that their business with U.S. customer and U.S. banks was illegal, tried to stack the deck, FBI assistant director-in-charge Janice K. Fedarcyk said in the Department of Justice press release.
They lied to banks about the true nature of their business, she said. Then, some of the defendants found banks willing to flout the law for a fee. The defendants bet the house that they count continue their scheme, and they lost.
The government's action today is rooted in the 2006 establishment of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA), which made it a federal crime for gambling businesses to accept payment for illegal gambling.
Located offshore, Full Tilt Poker, PokerStars and Absolute Poker continued to do business in the U.S after the law was enacted, claiming that the U.S. had no control over their financial transactions.
But because of the UIGEA, the poker websites faced difficulties in getting legitimate companies to accept users' payments, and allegedly used fraudulent methods to circumvent federal law and trick these institutions into processing payments on their behalf, the press release said.
In one instance, the operators of Full Tilt Poker and Absolute Poker made the money from American gamblers appear as payments to nonexistent online merchants purporting to sell merchandise such as jewelry and golf balls.
If charged with conspiracy to commit bank fraud, wire fraud and money laundering, the defendants each face a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison and a $500,000 fine.

Stefan Jarnason is Managing Director, Solar Analytics and Technical Director, Suntech Australia. Stefan recently presented at the 2014 All Energy Conference in Melbourne in October.
He discusses how solar is reducing electricity prices for all consumers and is offering comsumers a whole energy package which allows for long term storage, load shifting, monitoring and more.
Solar Analytics was born out of PV manufacturer Suntech in 2011 and is a unique solar monitoring product that uses sophisticated algorithms to analyse the energy generated by a PV system, and compare this to the calculated energy yield based on the PV system parameters and daily weather conditions. These algorithms intelligently assess how well a PV system is performing, and inform the system owner so that underperforming systems can be rectified in a timely manner.
Solar Analytics offers you alternative user-friendly solutions to better understand your system's performance. Through faster fault identification and rectification, your solar PV system's lifetime energy generation can be increased by 15-20%.
Stefan also talks about some of the new ideas that impressed him at All Energy. He refers to BZE researcher Richard Keech's presentation on 'PV vs solar hot water'.
In today's Community Show Podcast (broadcast on Mon 12 May 2014), we feature an edited version of a recent BZE Discussion Group presentation by Australia's foremost solar industry expert, Nigel Morris.
Presentation Audio
Beyond Zero's Anthony & Matt are joined by solar expert and chair of the Australian PV Institute (APVI), Dr Muriel Watt, for the Solar Everywhere Recap show.
In our regular recap shows, we find a common thread in our previous interviews, play excerpts and weave a story in between.Today's theme is Solar Everywhere. The incredible decline in the price of solar PV has made it an early favourite for the title of "Energy source of the 21st Century". Its success is not only taking energy generation to places it has never been, it is challenging the very nature of energy generation and distribution.Today we are going to be exploring all the places where solar panels can now be found, and the innovative policy, marketing and finance models that are getting them there. Many of mechanisms we will discuss relate not just to solar PV, but that's where we will keep our focus todayWe recap interviews with Danny Kennedy, Glen Morris, Oliver Yates, Craig Morris and Mark Rayner.
Ian McLeod is the CEO of Ergon Energy in Queensland, Director of the Energy Supply Association and formerly on the state electricity commission of Victoria.
Ergon Energy is an electricity retailer to homes and businesses in regional Queensland. Who are responsible for maintaining and expanding the regional Queensland electricity network.
Today in this extended interview Matt Grantham and Anthony Daniele discuss the infrastructure costs associated with running one of the most dispersed grids in the developed world and how roof top solar and battery storage is being increasing used as a way of reducing costs for Qld tax payers. We also discuss the need and likely success of a recent attempt to get a new coal fired power station established in Townsville.
Matt Grantham has written a series of articles in Climate Spectator on this topic.

Zachary Shahan is the director of CleanTechnica, the most popular cleantech-focused website in the world, and Planetsave, a world-leading green and science news site. Zach has been covering green news of various sorts since 2008, and he has been especially focused on solar energy, electric vehicles, and wind energy for the past four years or so.
Aside from his work on CleanTechnica, Climate Spectator and Planetsave, he's the Network Manager for their parent organization – Important Media – and he's the Owner/Founder of Solar Love, EV Obsession, and Bikocity.
Today Matt Grantham and Anthony Daniele discuss the latest developments and reducing prices of Solar PV technology in Australia with Dr Muriel Watt, Chair of the Australian PV Institute (APVI).
The Institute comprises companies, agencies, individuals and academics with an interest in solar energy research, technology, manufacturing, systems, policies, programs and projects.
The APVI's work is intended to be apolitical and of use not only to its members but also to the general community. The focus is on data analysis, independent and balanced information, and collaborative research, both nationally and internationally.
In today's interview, Dr Watt talks about how the cost of a 5kW system has dropped from $60,000 in 2008 to the price today of $8,500 and will continue to reduce over time.
Solar PV saves Victoria from black out during heatwave
Ric Brazzale, President of RECs Agents Association (RAA) and CEO of Green Energy Trading, shows solar PV contribution clipped peak demand by 4.6% during the recent record breaking January 2014 heatwave. With this significant contribution, PV may well have saved Victorians and South Australians from a black out.
Using Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) electricity demand 5-minute interval data and overlaying extrapolated Australian PV Institute (APVI)'s PV real-time generation data, the analysis shows 606MW of PV (4.6%) power reduced the peak demand on 16 January at 2:30pm to stay below the highest peak reached back in in the lead up to Black Saturday in January 2009. PV not only shifted the peak demand to later the day but also kept the wholesale power price down. The average market price during the previous peak (on 29 Jan 2009 12- 6pm) was over $4600/MWh, compared to $509/MWh with 4.6% of PV contribution.
Julia Hamm is the president and CEO of the Solar Electric Power Association (SEPA), a national non-profit that helps its utility members make smart solar decisions. Julia has strong relationships with individuals at utilities and solar companies worldwide, and is knowledgeable about solar programs, policies, barriers, and trends.

Dear Five Buck Club Member of City North 14 and Webster Place,
I wrote you recently about AMC's acquisition of the Kerasotes Theatres. In a subsequent transaction, AMC has sold the City North 14 and Webster Place to Regal Cinemas. Regal will take over management of these two locations effective May 25, 2010. We have been asked by Regal to inform you that they will not be honoring Five Buck Club cards after they assume operation of these locations on May 25, 2010. Thank you for your patronage.

My man is working on 40 Whacks artwork, I'm writing notes for tomorrow's tech, windows open, Rolling Stones, summertime.
On Saturdays I wake up at 9:30 and watch a scary movie (X-Files today), then I go to Walgreens and get pizza (Digorno Supreme) and a large gatorade (Grape), then I come home and eat half the pizza and watch a funny movie (Mamma Mia today). Every Saturday. Past 5 weeks. I LOVE IT! This summer is about chilling out!
I love Seth.

Easter is not too far away and a lot of retailers have put out their seasonal Star Wars products, and you can bet Boba Fett is featured prominently on many of these new items.
As usual, Target is the forerunner in stocking officially licensed Star Wars items. One of the most fun for the family is probably a Easter egg decorating kit, featuring 46 stickers and two stencils. The set includes imagery from the Original Trilogy, specifically Return of the Jedi.
Also found at Target is a variety of Star Wars Easter baskets. You'll find these in their seasonal aisle, not the bargain bins. The basket featuring Boba Fett is constructed of high-quality and sturdy paper. Boba Fett is shown on one of the four sides, with the other sides showcasing Greedo, Han Solo and a Storm Trooper.
The images are the same as used in this year's oversized calendar. It's priced at $6, which is great price since it could easily be re-purposed for other storage needs.
Rovio released its Cloud City update today. They hype surrounding this release was well deserved, the new level came with an initial 20 levels – featuring new game features, a clever approach to Boba Fett and new secret Easter eggs planted throughout previous worlds.
When Angry Birds Star Wars debuted late last year, fans of both franchises praised the game for its inventiveness. The characters could power up as you progressed through the game, mastering the Force, and there we discovered other neat functions – like Pigs with blasters, which if attacked correctly, would turn their fatal blaster bolts on their comrades.
Cloud City executes similar friendly fire scenarios. When you attack Boba Fett, his jet packs throttles him through the air, taking out Pig Troopers and wrecking blocks. The bounty hunter first appears in the 17th level of Cloud City.
Cloud City also features air vents, which changes the trajectory of the birds. This can be used to get extra distance in flight, flinging debris at enemies and other clever uses.
Rovio also planted five jet packs throughout the worlds, which if collected opens up a Boba Fett's Missions – similar to the Bonus Level or Path of the Jedi. This stage can also be gained by paying .99 cents, but it's easy enough to collect the jet packs.
The jet packs can be found on the Death Star (2-32), Tatooine (1-23), Hoth (3-27), Cloud City (4-4) and Cloud City (4-19). The Death Star level proves the most challenging to grab, but can be done with a swing of Luke Skywalker's Light Saber.
Once you've gathered all the jet packs, Boba Fett's Missions opens up and it features eight levels. I imagine more will be added over time, most likely whenever Jabba's Palace is introduced to the game. Also, there are no signs of Slave I in the game yet, but I'm eager to see how the ship will function when introduced.

Nina Simone & Daughter, 1965
black mommy daughter excellence
Mariska Hargitay - #Hincredibles Family
Sorry to be that person who adds comments to gifsets, but I have to talk about the perfection of this little exchange.
The Fosters subverts the traditional family narrative in a lot of ways. Some are obvious - two mothers, mix of biological, adopted, and fostered children, and multiple races/ethnicity represented within one family. But some are more subtle, and I think it's these subtle moments that make the show so great.
Let's break down the above scene, for example.
We've seen this scene many times before - the teenage daughter is going out on a date with a boy, and a parent (usually the father) is reiterating the curfew. The boy answers with some variation of "yes, sir" and the teenagers go on their way. This scene, played over and over again on almost every TV show I can think of, has shown generations of girls that boys are responsible for them. That the boy is the one in charge.
But Lena's not having that. She wasn't talking to Wyatt when she gave the curfew; she was talking to Callie. It seems like such a small thing but it's really a huge thing, because it tells Callie (and all the young women like her who are hopefully watching this show) that she is responsible for herself. That she has agency, that she is in charge of her own actions.
I consider myself a feminist and a "modern" parent, but I honestly didn't even blink when Lena gave the curfew and Wyatt responded, "Got it." I expected the scene to end there, because that's what we've seen time and time again. But I am so glad The Fosters exists to make me re-think my expectations. This show is constantly challenging our perceptions of what it means to be a family, and in doing so is perhaps teaching us something about how to best parent our children in this changing world.
I absolutely love generational photographs of Black women. Like…this is everything to me.

'Muscle Shoals': Elegant documentary about a remarkable musical town
By DAVE HOEKSTRA Staff Reporter October 3, 2013 2:32PM
Magnolia Pictures presents a documentary directed by Greg "Freddy" Camalier. Running time: 111 minutes. Rated PG (for thematic elements, language, smoking and brief partial nudity). Opens Friday at the Landmark Century Centre and available now on iTunes and on demand.

Updated: November 5, 2013 6:04AM
The Muscle Shoals sound was built out of conviction, rejection and raw vision.
These muscular characteristics are what connected filmmaker Greg "Freddy" Camalier with Fame Studio founder Rick Hall in the elegant documentary "Muscle Shoals."
Hall put Muscle Shoals, Ala. (pop. 11,924), on the map in 1961 when he produced the Arthur Alexander hit "You Better Move On," which was popularized by the Rolling Stones. He created from a dark and maverick energy that becomes the linchpin of the film.
Similary, Camalier never attended film school. "Muscle Shoals" is his directorial debut.
The output of country-infused soul music from Muscle Shoals is mind-boggling, which is why the doc rightly clocks in at 111 minutes.
Aretha Franklin ignited her career at Fame with hits like "I Never Loved a Man" and "Do Right Woman." Wilson Pickett took no prisoners at Fame with "Mustang Sally" and "Land of 1,000 Dances." Hall regards Pickett's cover of "Hey Jude," with guitar licks by session player Duane Allman, as the birth of Southern Rock.
Hall, who lived in Rockford as a teenager, came to Chicago to sell record exec Leonard Chess on Etta James. He produced James' "Tell Mama" album, which resulted in James' biggest hit. "Tell Mama" was written by Fame staff writer Clarence Carter, who had his own No. 1 hit in 1970 with "Patches."
Among the many previously untold secrets in "Muscle Shoals," Hall says that song is his story.
The late Barry Beckett (keyboards), Roger Hawkins (drums), Jimmy Johnson (guitar) and David Hood (bass) broke away from Hall in 1969 to create their own Muscle Shoals Sound Studio. They opened the studio in a former casket warehouse they called "the Burlap Palace."
The hits kept coming. The Rolling Stones traveled to Alabama to record "Brown Sugar" and "Wild Horses." Bob Seger's smash hits "Night Moves" and "Mainstreet" were recorded at the Muscle Shoals Sound Studio. Chicago's Staple Singers had their crossover success with "I'll Take You There" with lead singer Mavis Staples callling out names of the session players ("Barry, play your piano...")
Camalier spent four years working on "Muscle Shoals."
He was able to harvest interviews from Franklin, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Gregg Allman, whose tender remembrance arguably is the film's highlight. Alicia Keys brings the sound into the present day with a 2012 gospel-tinged version of "Pressing On," originally recorded by Bob Dylan in 1980 at Muscle Shoals for his "Saved" sessions. There's footage from the now-deceased Pickett and James. Despite Muscle Shoals and Stax records being a pivot point for them, there's nothing from the Staples family.
Or another family who sold 11 million records through Fame: The Osmonds' early 1970s hits "One Bad Apple," "Yo-Yo" and (appropriately) "Down by the Lazy River" were recorded at Fame.
These Muscle Shoals cats were not pretentious. They would play with anyone, black or white, young or old.
Camalier's template is the colorful and lush texture of Muscle Shoals, located along the Tennessee River. He draws on the Native American legacy of the land as "the Singing River," and I did not know Helen Keller came from the Muscle Shoals area until I saw the doc.
Camalier has seemed to use (credited) Peter Guralnick's landmark 1986 book "Sweet Soul Music" as a loose road map. Guralnick calls Muscle Shoals "the third triangle" of the regional recording cities of Memphis, Tenn., and Macon, Ga. Sun Records founder Sam Phillips came from Florence, Ala., a stone's throw from Muscle Shoals, a fact Camalier does not ignore.
The rural landcape created room for open expression.
Richards says he does not think the Stones have ever been as prolific as they were at Muscle Shoals. The rhythm section that broke off from Hall was named the Swampers, and when you listen closely, they are name-checked in the Lynyrd Skynyrd smash "Sweet Home Alabama," recorded at the studio now on the National Register of Historic Places. The sound continues through groups like the Drive-By Truckers, whose vocalist-guitarist Patterson Hood is the son of David Hood.
The only place where "Muscle Shoals" runs out of steam is in updating the current status of the community. In 2004 the Muscle Shoals Sound Studio was on eBay. At one point Mark Knopfler was interested in purchasing it. Malaco Records owned it. In the end, the Swampers were part of the buyers' group, and they want to make it a working studio again. Fame is still functioning at its mid-1960s location and recording artists like Bettye LaVette, Jamey Johnson and Band of Horses.
Do not leave the film until the last credit rolls by. Hall, 81, serves up some of his most powerful stuff, which he calls his "sermon for the day." He speaks of the inner beauty of imperfection. He doesn't care if a drummer falls off a stool as long as he doesn't miss the beat. "Get back up and climb back up," he says. "That's a human element, there is force. So imperfections give it a human element, which I believe is what we need more today. That's how you make magic and great records."
And with that freedom of expression, Muscle Shoals made history.

The House Finance Committee came up with a curious (and thankfully short) list of new items to apply the state's seven-percent sales to, like OTC drugs, sightseeing tours, insurance proceeds and digital downloads. I understand the OTC drugs, which includes cough medicine and antihistimenes, and the sightseeing tours (ok 7% on top of your ticket price to tour the Marble House in Newport), but insurance proceeds and digital downloads? What do they mean by insurance proceeds and espcially digital downloads. Regarding the downloads, that could potentially mean taxing lot of actions like software downloads, movies and online purchases. Many of us download something online every day. And just how does the state intend to capture the tax on such downloads?
We need more information and clarity on these items. They represent anticipated new revenue totaling $17 million a year.

Thankfully, I don't have the struggles of those who are seven feet (or at least, near that size). Of course, I also don't have the paycheck of those who are near or at seven feet, but I guess that's the crappy trade-off I get.
But for those who are a bit larger than the normal person, there are a ton of life conveniences we shorter folk may take for granted that extremely tall people (namely NBA players) struggle with.
Case in point? How about Indiana Pacers big man Roy Hibbert trying to fit into an airplane lavatory? It's like trying to stuff an NFL defensive end into a two-seat convertible – it doesn't work.
Also not working? A typical bed. A lot of athletes, especially NBA players need custom beds made and Al Jefferson of the Charlotte Bobcats is no different.
The former Utah Jazz big man recently purchased a 10 feet by 12 feet bed worth over $23,000 dollars, which, well, it's giant.
At first glance, the bed looks relatively normal….
But then, not so much (that's Mo Williams laying on the bed, not Al Jefferson, just for size sake):
Wonder what he used to ship the bed to Charlotte? A spaceship?

We caught up with "The Thunder" following his bronze medal performance at the X Games to get his impression of the event and his season up to this point.
Obviously you had a great X Games, how was the total event for you?
It was unbelievable. I hurt myself right before last year's and I was pretty bummed and I didn't really go down and take advantage of the whole X Games. This year I was all about it, so I went down on the Friday and hung out Friday and Saturday and watched as many events as I could and just took it all in. It was awesome.
You have had a couple of injuries, what were your expectations coming into X Games?
Well, my last season I pretty much missed the whole thing, excluding that, the year before I was fourth in the championship and the year before that I was fifth. So following that, I really wanted to be top three. It didn't really happen the first couple rounds, I got a seventh and a fourth, which was a little bit closer, but top three is really where I am trying to get, so I got my goal exactly.
What is the atmosphere like at the X Games Endurocross compared to a regular Endurocross?
It was quite a bit different, pretty much everything is different. The biggest thing for me was in practice; they actually left the water out of the track, so the track was really dry and then they put the water in before we started racing on it. Usually they have the water in for practice so the track is a lot more similar, so that was the biggest difference. I am not sure why they did that but everyone wasn't expecting the track to be as slippery as it was when we started racing on it. A lot of other things too- the qualifier format was changed, instead of having heat races, a semi and an LCQ, now they just went straight from the heat races to the LCQ. So it was a little bit more cutthroat in qualifying; if you didn't make it out of the first round you have one more chance and usually we have three chances to get in. That was a little bit different, just the whole way that the event was run because of the time constraints of the TV coverage, that's a little bit different. Sometimes we would be sitting on the line and they would say, "Wait, wait, wait, we have time," and other times they would be like, "We need to go now." You just had to be prepared at all times. But as soon as the gate dropped everything was pretty much the same as a regular Endurocross.
You didn't feel any added pressure from the bigger crowds and added attention?
I think before the event started, definitely, just being part of X Games and all the stuff that happened before the racing actually started even through the practice and the hot laps. Everything was just that much bigger; all the people, all the international riders that were there was a lot different. As I said, once the gate dropped for the racing, I just kind of forgot about everything except for the racing part.
How was the track design compared to a regular Endurocross track? Did they switch it up for X Games?
I think it was pretty typical, the obstacles were very similar to what we are used to racing on. All the tracks are a little bit different. It seemed like it was going to be easy and it was easy in practice, but once the water got into the firewood section it became the hardest firewood that I have ever ridden through. That was the one thing that I don't think anyone saw coming, because in practice we were flying through it, feet on the pegs with no problem, but through the qualifiers and the main event you could hardly get through with the feet on the pegs. Maybe one or two times in the main did I get through clean, it was a lot harder. The rock uphill became horrendous, you could hardly get up it. Because of the way the log was at the bottom you couldn't really carry any momentum into it, you were starting from almost a standstill, and you had to gain some momentum going up it and it was really slippery. A lot of people, I think, didn't anticipate that. They were all talking about doubling at the top; that wasn't even a thought to me because I knew that by the time the races started you would have a tough time getting up there and wouldn't be able to double. I kind of had that figured out a little more than everyone else.
Outside of the wood sections where the water wasn't being dragged it looked like the soil was really slippery. Was it a really hard packed surface?
It was. Actually, it seems like they are going more towards that, even the first round in Vegas was the same. I don't know whether they roll it or something but it is like concrete and as soon as the water starts to track on it it's like ice. Some of the flat turns you can't even use the front brakes coming in to them, you have to be really careful not to wash the front end because it is so slick. Another part that was really tough was in the matrix because it was kind of a double, triple rhythm section and every time you landed the dirt was so slippery you could hardly get the momentum or the drive to do the next double or triple, whatever it was. We were constantly going left and right trying to search for traction.
Does that make tire selection tough, or do you just go for the standard tires for each event?
I don't really change it up, I just use the Dunlop MX51 and make some modifications to it. I definitely like it the best for anything slippery and it still works when there is traction, so I use it everywhere.
Has the novelty of winning the X Games medal worn off yet?
Yeah, definitely. Last weekend I took a vacation at Lake Havasu for a little while and just took some time off. It has been years since I have done the vacation type thing. It was awesome to just kind of bask in the victory.
It seems like several Canadians are having success in Endurocross, do you think you have paved the way for them?
I wouldn't say that, Bobby Prochnau has been doing them as long as I have and maybe even before I was racing them. We used to come down a lot together and I think the success that we've had has really convinced a lot of other Canadians to try it. The type of riding and racing that we do in Canada prepares us for Endurocross better than I think almost anywhere else that you grow up. It is almost a little easier, I would say, to come from there and adjust your style to Endurocross.
I guess the western terrain is almost typical of what you would find at an Endurocross race.
Definitely, we've all ridden all those obstacles before. It is a little bit different riding an Endurocross track with all the obstacles stacked on top of one another, but it is less of a surprise when you get to the track. For people that race down in Southern California, here they don't really have that many logs to ride over.
How was it having Taddy behind you during the final?
It was a little nerve-wracking the last half of the race with Taddy breathing down my neck, but I knew that he was making mistakes and I knew that if I could make less mistakes than him I would stay in front of him.
How aware were you that he was behind you?
Very aware, he was making his presence well known.
Did it feel good to finally beat him?
It felt really good. He is one of the guys that I see as the toughest competitor. I have definitely beaten every other rider out there before, and I don't think I have ever beaten Taddy. There was a mistake on his part and that left him way back and I don't think I have ever beaten him straight up, he was behind me and that was a bit more nerve-wracking than any of the other riders. I was just as concerned about him behind me as I was about trying to pass Cody. It is that fine line between going fast and being aggressive and making a pass, while still not making a mistake and getting passed.
You and Cody were pretty close throughout most of that race, was it tough to get out of your head and not make a mistake trying to catch him?
Yeah that was the biggest thing. I've watched the videos a couple times and I got stuck in the uphill rock section one lap and he passed me; if I hadn't done that and assuming that the rest of the race went the same, I probably would have finished ahead of him because I was a tenth of a second behind him at the finish. It was really tight.
You have also had a tremendous amount of success in the WORCS series. Endurocross and WORCS are two completely different types of racing, do any of the skills transfer?
A little bit, WORCS has what they call a WORCScross, but it is an Endurocross section that they only run in the pro race, so there is a little bit of that in there as well. It also trains me to work on my aggression quite a lot because that is something that you really need in Endurocross. WORCS is basically motocross these days; you have to be very aggressive and carry corner speed.
You raced a bit of moto growing up, that is obviously helping you with the WORCS series.
Yeah definitely, I think I have come a long way in the WORCS series. I think back to the very first one that I did at Glen Helen in 2009 and I couldn't believe that people raced a course like that. It was wide open and there were rocks and it was dusty, fast and choppy,( headshake) and I just couldn't wrap my brain around it; it was something that I had never done. I have definitely adapted to it and now I am very comfortable at it.
It seems like you adapt quickly to things, does that come from racing everything growing up?
I think so; I started doing off-road and moved up to the pro class, then tried motocross and then got into Endurocross, then Six-Days. I kind of covered the whole spectrum, even rode trials bikes a bit for training, but I really tried to get into everything that I could and become one of the more well-rounded riders.
Your team must be pretty happy with you. You have been getting a fair amount of attention for Husqvarna and your team.
It is really good and everyone is really pleased with the results; it was extra special to have all the Italians over here also and to perform well in front of them. I have gone over to Europe and raced Endurocrosses over there in front of them and not done too well, it is good to prove myself to them a little bit.
You find that the Husky suits you well for Endurocross?
I think so. The 310, I think, is one of the best bikes for Endurocross. Right out of the box. We don't actually make very many modifications at all. Obviously we do the suspension and just a little bit of motor work, nothing really that noticeable, other than that we don't make any other big modifications. It suits us really well and last year we had Jamie Lanza running it as well and we lowered it a bit for him. I think it is a bike with a lot of potential for any rider in Endurocross.

There are two bedrooms on the first floor: the master bedroom, with a queen size bed and a walk-in closet. You can hear the sound of the waves from this room. There is a full bathroom across the hall. The second bedroom at the end of the hall has a double bed.
Upstairs there is a big bedroom with 4 beds and an attached full bathroom (tub w/o shower). The second bedroom has 1 double bed and an attached full bathroom. The loft area has a futon couch (extends out to a double bed) and a full size bed. All the bedrooms have new curtains and bright, beach-themed linens. All the bathrooms are equipped with new, plush towels.
Downstairs there is a comfortable dining room, kitchen, living room with two big picture windows overlooking the large front property, and a table set up for puzzles or games. Lots of fans, windows, and the ever-present ocean breeze keep it cool during warm August days.
In addition to the beaches, you can check out Newport, Providence, or the shops at nearby Watch Hill. There are great seafood restaurants nearby (some favorites are the Matunuck Oyster Bar, the Ocean House in Watch Hill, and the Shelter Harbor Inn). You can see Block Island from the beach, and take a ferry over from Point Judith to ride mopeds for the day.
Just a short 10 miles to I-95, 2 hours to Boston, 3 hours to New York City, or 40 minutes to the T.F. Green Airport in Providence.

About The Owner
I am an attorney and professor; I grew up loving Weekapaug and the beaches, I had my wedding there, and I am lucky enough to bring my husband and two kids there every July.
The Owner purchased this barn in 1949
Why The Owner chose Weekapaug Beach
Grandpa Phillips bought this when it was a real Barn, and hired an architect to make it into a house. We have kept the Barn in the family and we treasure our time there.
What makes this barn unique
I love waking up to the sound of the ocean; having my morning tea while watching the birds out the picture window; walking the Inn beach in the morning before it gets too hot; having a gin and tonic while I take a shower outdoors; watching my children do a jigsaw puzzle on the game table.

Pc not working after intense gaming
Hello, i'm CrazyKilla
I was playing far cry 3 which my pc found hard to play until i enabled SLI which then boosted fps and i turned graphics up to verry high and started playing, it ran really smoothly until a few minutes later my pc turned off, straight away i unplugged power cables and turned off power supply, the power cable was pritey hot, i unplugged everything and opened pc up and getting burn smells, mostly coming from power supply, i immedietly pulled out many parts such as graphics cards, processor, and power supply which all were verry hot (but not the processor) the power supply was giving off a burning smell so i opened it up and didn't find any damage (probably because i didn't check well), i left all parts to cool off and put everything back as it was, my pc is getting power (LED lights, reset buttons, speakers) but when i turn it on nothing happens at all, im really worried... My rig is pritey expensive (about £1000) and i don't want to get damaged parts ): Also my power supply (i think) was given to me by some foreign pc technitians when i had problems but it could be my friend that gave it to me,
I have many fans (1 large at the front, 2 medium fans on the side and back, 1 small on processor and 3 mini ones on gpus and MB) What caused this problem and how can i fix this?

I can only assume that you are looking for confirmation on what you know is the problem:
The power supply is dead.
Everything you describe points to this. Burnt smells coming from any component is never a good thing, but a power supply is the worst.
Do not connect or use that power supply in your system. It could damage your other components. Get a new supply, one with sufficient power (and overhead) to run 2 video cards and the rest of your system.
How to Pick the Right Power Supply
My advice is always to not skimp on the power supply. It is the most important component in the system.
|My System Specs
|05 Dec 2012
Can you recommend a power supply for my system?:
Rampage IV Extreme (MB)
2 Gts 450's (Gpu)
I7 3820 3.60Ghz (Prcssr)
2 HDDs
Hp w2408h monitor
Logitec Z506 speakers
And some sort of LG tv

I'm not sure that the brands and models available here in the US are available in Lithuania, so it is best to do your own shopping.
Personally I recommend Seasonic and Corsair power supplies. Some Corsairs are made by Seasonic, but not all. There is a link "who makes your power supply" in that thread I posted above where you can find that stuff out.
You will use a ATX 12v/EPS 12v supply for your machine. Make sure it has an 8-pin connector for your processor.
As to size of supply (watts) I use this calculator:
eXtreme Power Supply Calculator
Fill in ALL of your specs.
Most important is that last box: "Capacitor Aging". I always use 50%. That is because a power supply's output drops over time due to capacitor aging. It is common to reach 50% aging in 4 to 5 years. Heavy users can do half that. Buying a larger supply compensates for this known aging and extends the life of the supply.
If you are buying online look at the reviews. They will tell the tale.
This is a good supply to start with:
Newegg.com - CORSAIR Enthusiast Series TX850 V2 850W ATX12V v2.31/ EPS12V v2.92 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC High Performance Power Supply
Make note of the specs and compare them to anything else you are looking at.
I can assure you that more opinions and advice from other knowledgeable folks will follow. Everyone's needs and wants are different. It is all good.

The power supply you showed me fits my requirements, by the way i live in the UK but i was born in LT, my old power supply was 700 watts. I need to know what caused this? Was it over heating? Did power supply just fail or is 700 watt not enough?
EDIT: I found a epic corsair gaming PSU: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-CMPS...716764&sr=1-14

Electrocution by power supply.
|My System Specs
|05 Dec 2012
"Stuff Happens"!
When power supplies get old the components in it can dry out, overheat, and fail in slow motion. It is a buildup to total failure. How old was that supply?
External sources could be poor power (dirty power) going into the supply from the wall (power supplies compensate for this but not forever). And it could be just running it hard. The longer a power supply has to put out near full power the faster it will age just due to cooking in the heat.
Use that calculator to determine your total draw at high load and tell us what you get.
|My System Specs

My PSU was slightly over 6 - 8 months old, i have my pc on 6+ hours on work days and 12+ on weekends,
Should i clean my PSU out every month or so? (If i do discharge those capacitors of yours)
Life is so boring without pcs and internet! Is it not?
|My System Specs
|05 Dec 2012
Much too young to die. I might suspect a defective or cheaply made unit.
Yes, you should clean everything in the case, including the power supply, relatively often. Once a month may be good if you have dusty conditions. Use compressed air to blow the dust and hair out. There is no need to disassemble, remove, or take apart anything, just blow it out. They sell cans of compressed air just for this purpose.

Jamestown High School (often abbreviated to JHS) is a public high school located in Jamestown, New York. It is the sole public high school within the city limits of Jamestown and educates high school freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors.
Jamestown High School was first established in 1867. 1903 marked the publishing of the first yearbook and in 1924, the A Cappella Choir was founded which still exists today, currently run by choir director Norman D. Lydell. In 1934, the present day building began construction as part of Roosevelt's New Deal. The new school building was officially finished on November 15, 1935. In 1979, the first Battle of the Classes took place, which still continues today. The event raised about $250,000 over the course of 30 years for local charities. From 1984 to 1987, the school went through modernization, including the construction of a new gym. In 1993, the Red Raider Football team lost in the first New York State football championship series. The team did however, go on to win the state championship in 1994, 1995, and 2000. One Thanksgiving 1995, the Red Raider Marching Band marched as the "Santa Band" in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The band won the State Championship in 2002 and became the Orange Bowl champions in 2003. In fall 2004. the Jamestown Tech Academy opened for classes for students at Jamestown High School. In January 2008, the Red Raider Marching Band marched in the Citrus Bowl Parade and Disney world. The Jamestown high school basketball team has also had many accomplishments in winning multiple division and sectional championships. In 2010 the Red Raiders made it to the elite eight of the New York State Championship.
In addition to the standard courses of history, math, science, and English, Jamestown High School teaches courses covering many different areas of art and music. It also offers college-level courses via the Advanced Placement Program in a variety of subjects that allow students to receive university credit. The Advanced Placement Program is decent at Jamestown and does sometimes produce high pass rates on the Advanced Placement Exams. Students graduating in the top 20% of their graduating class get into Jamestown Community College for free.
Jamestown High School offers a huge selection of sports including softball, baseball, boys' tennis, boys' and girls' track and field, and golf in the spring; football, boys' and girls' soccer, boys' and girls' cross country, girls' tennis, girls' swimming, and girls' volleyball in the fall; boys' and girls' basketball, boys' swimming, boys' and girls' indoor track, bowling, wrestling and hockey in the winter. Hockey is not part of the school's varsity sports program but is run by the local youth hockey association in Jamestown. The school's mascot is a cartoon Native American man carrying a tomahawk.
In 2011, thanks mainly to senior forward Darin Butts and junior standout Jaysean Paige, the Jamestown Red Raiders were runner-ups for the State in basketball, eventually falling to state/national powerhouse Mt. Vernon. the basketball squad absolutely dominated Section 6 and won against some of the state's top teams, including Niagara Falls and Albany CBA.
Clubs offered are key club, FBLA, Spanish club, French club, environmental club, raider readers, drama club, morning announcements, video works, yap, National Honor Society, and ski club.

text: Here's an easy way to demystify the art of motivating employees: Compare yourself to a good primary-care physician. The Journal of the American Medical Association reports that doctors with the best bedside manner (and who are least likely to face malpractice claims) encourage patients to talk and give their opinions, confirm that patients understand what they're told and lace their remarks with bits of appropriate humor. The same goes for superior workplace motivators. If you listen attentively to your employees and respect their opinions, wait to ensure that they heard your instructions before you rush away and show a sense of humor, you'll win over your team.

Mid price cruiser style Suzuki GZ125 Marauder works well and makes a decent learner steed. It's got more presence than the budget custom style 125s like Yamaha's SR125 but it's usefully cheaper than the twin cylinder alternatives which cost about a grand more when new. The Suzuki GZ125 Marauder makes a decent, frugal urban commuter too.
498cc, 48bhp, 110mph, Insurance group 8
The Kawasaki ER-5 has a straightforward parallel-twin middleweight commuter that's as easy to use as a pair of pants. As a cheap workhorse you won't find much wrong with the Kawasaki ER-5 - providing your expectations don't go beyond simply getting from A to B.
487cc, 47bhp, 110mph, Insurance group 7
Having been around since Adam was an embryo, the Suzuki GS500E may be a trusty workhorse but it tends not to inspire passion in riders due to drab handling, gutless performance, dreadful finish and its perpetual association with L plates. The GS500E looks ok and they're dirt cheap but, for a few hundred pounds more, you can do a lot better ...
904cc, 80bhp, 140mph, Insurance group 14
Real retro sports motorcycle that was outdated when new. If you're after all-out speed, practicality or reliability look elsewhere. If you want old school charm, a great twin cylinder sound track, stunning looks and handling to surprise the odd modern motorcycle the Ducati 900SS is worth a look.
1064cc, 75bhp, 115mph, Insurance group 11
Italian with real history – the Moto Guzzi California 1100EV hasn't changed hugely since the 850cc version of 1972. But it's still a machine well worth considering. The California 1100EV is a cruiser / tourer that actually handles. The transverse Moto Guzzi V-twin engine's has a chunky, chuggy character and while the California 1100EV's not superb at anything it's a great all rounder. Surviving versions are ...
738cc, 76bhp, 125mph, Insurance group 9
The Kawasaki Z1 was an awesome bike in its day, but the Zephyr 750/1100 tribute bike - like tribute bands - doesn't quite capture the lairy, dangerous essence of the original. The 750 is too soft, a bit underpowered and the 1100 is simply a lardbucket that makes a Bandit 1200 look like a sportbike.
124cc, 31bhp, 101mph, Insurance group 7
Ducati-esque styling and the promise of almost 30bhp in (easily) from a de-restricted motorcycle make the Cagiva Mito 125 a real object of desire for anyone on a learner motorcycle licence. The Cagiva Mito 125 only just loses out to Aprilia's RS125 in the sex stakes.

text: HOME DX LISTENING DIGESTLast Updated: October 10, 2014 Days and times here are strictly UT As of October 1, some new times for WOR on non-9955 WRMI frequencies. As of August 7, WBCQ cancelled WOR without notice from the Thursday 2100 broadcast on 7490. It has continued on Wednesdays at 2100. As of July 3, Ted Randall cancelled WOR on WTWW without notice. As of July 13, Ray Robinson added WOR to KVOH, UT Sundays 0131 on 9975! Also on a webcast Monday 0630. 9975 is sometimes off the air. Some WOR airings on WRMI are jammed by Cuba. Please direct complaints to Arnie Coro or Arnie Coro whose DX program is never jammed. ACB Radio airings sometimes preempted, such as July 15, 2011 for their annual conference coverage, circa this date annually. Or March 29, 2013, during a pledge drive? As of Nov 2010, times shifted one UT hour later, so first airing is at 2100 EST/EDT, i.e. instead of sticking to UT will make DST shifts. In 2011, on Nov 11, ACB still ran WOR on odd UT hours, became even hours Nov 18. So changes do not necessarily match DST/un-DST dates. On November 9, 2012, WOR appeared at 0200 UT, i.e. even hours thru 2400 --- no, the final repeat must be at 2200 as something else at 2400. As of 2013 DST season, presumably at odd UT hours, 01 thru 21. Missing airings are now explained: Plays every four hours 01 thru 21. After DST, from 02 thru 22. World FM, NZ times changed for DST from October. More shifts when DST conclude in April. HLR times have shifted one UT hour earlier from March 30 for DST. And should shift one UT hour later when DST ends in late October. Due to necessary produxion schedule variations, the Wednesday/early Thursday times, at least on shortwave, sometimes carry new show, sometimes previous show.
