Mount loses bit off top
Relevant offers
Aoraki/Mt Cook has shrunk 30 metres as the summit reshapes after the massive rock-ice collapse in 1991.
Work to measure the height of the mountain was done by an Otago-led climbing expeditionlast November and analysis of high accuracy GPS data obtained during the climb has confirmed the new height.
The readings reinforce new aerial photography-based calculations by Otago National School of Surveying researcher Pascal Sirguey and Masters student Sebastion Vivero, with support from GNS Science and New Zealand Aerial Mapping.
Dr Sirguey says the discrepancy between the old height of 3754m (estimated from aerial photography immediately following a massive rock-ice collapse on December 14, 1991) and the new height of 3724m can be explained by a two-decades long reshaping process affecting the remnant of the originally thick ice cap.
"By carefully studying photos taken after the collapse, it appears that there was still a relatively thick ice cap, which was most likely out of balance with the new shape of the summit ridge," he says.
"As a result, the ice cap has been subject to erosion over the past 20 years.
"While the effects of climate change may spring to mind as an explanation, it is probably a case of a simple change in the geomorphology of the mountain."
The four-person Otago expedition was led by Nicolas Cullen, a senior lecturer in the Department of Geography at Otago. He was accompanied by Jim Anderson of Survey Waitaki and the pair were guided by Geoff Wayatt and Brian Weedon of Mountain Recreation Ltd.
The November 27 expedition was the 27th ascent of the mountain for 68-year-old Mr Wayatt, who first climbed Mt Cook as a 21-year-old.
"It was fascinating to see the team together with all their skills focusing on getting the job done," he said. "I especially admire Nicolas Cullen who said the No 1 priority was to make sure we were all safe. If there was any risk, we would come down."
Mr Wayatt climbed Aoraki/Mt Cook just days before the mountain lost 30 metres in 1991.

Wheeling Through Purpose During the Holidays—with Patricia Sobczyk
in Spirituality
Muddling through the busyness of the holidays and maintaining "normal" day-to-day life during the holidays can be difficult for many people. Family responsibilities, work schedules, entertainment adventures all add to the stress caused by this time of year. Being able to do it all from a wheelchair makes it even more complicated. Purpose Talk Radio guest for Nov. 24, noon PDT/3 p.m. EDT/9 p.m. UK, Patricia Sobczyk is one person who has lived all of these pieces of her life since she was 18 years old.
At 18 years of age she was a stay-at-home mother of one child when she contracted Polio. Polio left her with needing to use a wheelchair and needing to learn how to adapt to an entirely new way of life. This was 1972, long before the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed. Being the first case of Polio in Wisconsin in 10 years, and requiring a number of services of The United Way, Pat served on the United Way's Speaker's Bureau and spoke at 22 different companies in Milwaukee, appeared in numerous newspaper ads, articles and informational brochures and did local media interviews. Since then she has raised three boys, held several jobs, continued to speak out for as an advocate for "disabled" people and live her life of purpose, while enjoying the holidays and every other day of life.
Each Monday live at 12 noon PT/3 pm ET/8 pm UK, or archived thereafter, our host, Cindy Freeman, and her guests bring insights and ideas to help you grow in your Soul path. Check out more information at Purpose Talk Radio and join the conversations on Facebook at Purpose Talk Radio Conversations.
Life Purpose Boot Camp w Eric Maisel
in Spirituality
Dr. Eric Maisel is the author of more than 40 books. His interests include creativity and the creative life, the field of creativity coaching which he founded, and natural psychology, the new psychology of meaning that he has recently been developing.
Life Purpose Boot Camp is a method for addressing your life purpose and meaning problems.
This groundbreaking method is spelled out in Life Purpose Boot Camp: The 8-Week Breakthrough Plan for Creating a Meaningful Life (New World Library, October, 2014).
Kate says: "I love having meaningful conversations with people about their love of life and what it means in relation to prayer and eradicating the fear of death. It makes me crazy how American society sweeps death away and no one speaks about it. This is why I've created the "Uprooting Our Fear Of Death: Bringing IT Out Of The Closet" webinar series, as well as "The Prayer Prescription Series," and will be doing Teleseminars and Podcasts on these subjects in 2014, and beyond."

How to Remain Stress Free in a Stressful Envirnoment
Jesus Himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke Him and said to Him, "Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?" And He got up and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, "Hush, be still." And the wind died down and it became perfectly calm. And He said to them, "Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?"… Mark 4:38-40
He replied, "You of little faith, why are you so afraid?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm. Matt 8:26
The disciples went and woke him, saying, "Master, Master, we're going to drown!" He got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm. Luke 8:24

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe to fill that role, an increasing amount of violence within the title has apparently pushed the game to M-rated territory -- which typically doesn't help sales during the holiday season. Therefore, we can't say we're surprised at Midway's decision to tone down the "toasty" brawler in order to keep the T-rating they've been shooting for.
In a recent interview with Kotaku, Ed Boon explained that the developer had been working with the ESRB to squeeze as much brutality into the game while still remaining teen-friendly. However, one known casualty of some recent content cutbacks is the Joker's wicked "prank gun" fatality (posted after the break), the fatal part of which will now take place off-screen. It's unclear what else has been changed to appease the ESRB, though it's safe to assume that the final product won't contain any unceremoniously removed spinal cords, or, lamentably, disappearing pencils.

Herbert has done nothing to go beyond the minimum federal standards requiring clean air and water. In fact, the feds have had to threaten Utah with sanctions just to get those minimum standards met. Thank you, feds, for protecting our air and water.

How about some incentives to encourage the making of better choices. As the saying goes, "a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down". Threats, penalties may drive the "horse to water", but making it drink will be more difficult while creating an environment of passive aggressiveness that only makes change more difficult. The Governor's timid approach is better as we learn better how to reward improvement. Individuals, business, industry and communities will change when the changes suggested make sense and reduce their costs, instead of increasing costs and having little practicality.

Do you think 'vagina' is a dirty word? …Continue

For the second time since first losing my hair over a decade ago, I have hair. Not a lot of hair, not long hair, not normally textured hair, but hair. What I mean is that the total area of my head with hair growth is greater than the total area without hair. I'm still losing hair, not all over all-at-once, but in roving bald spots. So I have to be creative, moving…Continue

Full disclosure right up front: I'm one of the partners launching the venture described herein.
This morning in Washington, D.C., Jeff Vander Clute and I announced the formation of CircLabs, a technology company based in Silicon Valley that's building a new service to finance online news. CircLabs has seed funding from the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute at the University of Missouri.
The announcement was part of a one-day conference entitled "From Gatekeeper to Information Valet: Work Plans for Sustaining Journalism," organized by Bill Densmore, another partner in the project along with Joe Bergeron, a Silicon Valley software engineer.
CircLabs plans a suite of services, the first of which is code-named "Circulate." Software development on Circulate is underway, and we anticipate launching the service during the second half of this year.
Circulate will address the challenges of how to increase traffic to media-affiliated websites, secure relationships with online users and enhance the value of news. The Associated Press has been cooperating with us and is supportive of the service. We anticipate including a variety of strategic partners — unique investors necessary for continued development after the launch of Circulate.
Circulate is an outgrowth of research led by Bill Densmore, who was a 2008-2009 Reynolds Fellow at the Reynolds Journalism Institute at the University of Missouri.
Circulate will provide new and convenient ways for the Web to "come to" users, including social functionality that integrates, at their option, with their social network accounts.
Circulate promises to eliminate the uncertainties and wasted time of searching for news on the Web. After a simple, one-time sign-up, the user has instant access to personalized and constantly updated news from trustworthy sources around the world, delivered to the user automatically, wherever he or she may be. The user maintains absolute privacy and control of personal information.
More Americans now say they get most of their national and international news from the Web rather than from printed newspapers. Yet news publishers, and particularly publishers of the kind of essential journalism that's necessary to sustain a democracy, enjoy a relatively small share of total Web traffic.
U.S. newspaper Web sites receive less than 1 percent of all Web page views and about 1.2 percent of total time spent online,* and within the news category, the majority of traffic goes to aggregators rather than to publishers of original news content.
Although no clear strategies have emerged for news publishers to thrive in an online-only environment, CircLabs believes that the right technology can play a key role in improving the market share of news content and increasing the Web revenue of news publishers.
At the same time, a variety of factors call into question the sustainability of the print model for delivering journalism. What we do know is that the legacy system is breaking, and that no viable online ecosystem for news has emerged. What's needed: technology solutions to help publishers navigate toward a new service relationship with news consumers.
Circulate, the first service planned by CircLabs, aims to be a significant part of the solution. Circulate addresses two critical publisher needs: (1) the need to attract, both locally and nationally, a strong and loyal online readership, and (2) the need to monetize that audience, both directly through the sale of premium content and indirectly through high-value, targeted and interactive advertising.
Circulate will meet these needs of publishers and allow journalists to thrive in their roles as gatherers and curators of news and information. At the same time, Circulate will provide consumers with a new, post-search way to discover the news and connections they need. Circulate will serve all publishers of online news, ranging from newspapers to local news blogs. Circulate requires little or no technical integration on the part of publishers.
Some news organizations have announced plans to experiment with payment systems for content, including both micropayments and subscriptions. Circulate will offer a solution for either of these. In our view, newspapers should explore charging for online content when that content is both scarce in nature and of high utility to a segment of the audience. At the same time, we believe that revenue from advertising and other forms of commercial interactions will continue to be a critical means of financing news in the online ecosystem. Circulate will incorporate ways of generating high-value advertising revenue for participating news organizations.
For strategic reasons, we're not prepared to describe Circulate in more detail at this time, but stay tuned! The support we have from RJI allows us to move forward in the development phase, and we will be marketing Circulate to newspaper publishers and other news distributors. We anticipate beta deployment at the end of the summer, and full deployment by the end of this year.
The principals of CircLabs are Jeff Vander Clute, Bill Densmore, Joe Bergeron and myself.
Together we combine a great deal of Internet product development experience with deep journalism and publishing experience. All of us have been active in the conversations of the last few years surrounding the future of journalism and the search for viable online publishing solutions. Jeff and I have also been serving as consultants to the Reynolds Journalism Institute.

u know this is the most epicest cat video I have seen yet!
You're the undercat!
It seems like it's been awhile since I saw and reviewed something by you guys. I guess I just appreciate the Lock Legion so much, I want to see more. You really deserve this Underdog Of The Week Award, and it is definitley worthy of your legacy. I was thinking it might just be a cheap thing with stopping after the first sketch, (with the cat eating the other one) but it turned out to be better. You guys manage to be better than people like the Kitty Krew because you still put some effort in the cheesy stuff you make. Good job for beating the Kitty Krew on a kitten collab!
Neko say what?
That loop has my imagination that a person is behind this and he or she has a pained jaw and is out of breath. If this was intentional, good job.
The first one was definitely an eye opener. The others, not so much.
I was expecting more of ones similar to the first one. How disappointing.

Presentation: Ruby.rewrite(Ruby)
In this talk from RubyFringe, Reginald Braithwaite talks about his experiments with rewriting Ruby in Ruby.
Among his projects is the Rewrite gem, which brings hygienic macros to Ruby (using ParseTree to get the Ruby AST for Ruby code at runtime). He shows the origins of these ideas in languages as Scheme, LISP or Haskell, and how this approach could be used to write more expressive code without having to abuse concepts such as Open Classes.
Reginald has recently starting blogging about similar topics in a blog set up as a Github repository.

Home » Articles » Mick Foley still working with WWE
Since he has grown to become quite vocal and outspoken towards the company, many fans are wondering if the relationship between Vince McMahon and Mick Foley has soured backstage. According to Foley, he is still doing business with WWE. He recently made an appearance at NHL game and is scheduled to do an NBA game for the company soon.
March 3, 2014
Showing that some friendships extend beyond the business, Undertaker and his wife Michelle McCool recently attended a comedy show featuring Mick Foley. The longtime WWE couple wanted to show support for their old friend. The two of them even went backstage to catch up with Foley for a bit. Several wrestlers in the industry, including CM Punk recently, have made the effort to go watch Foley tell jokes.
July 14, 2014
"If Luke Harper were a stock, I'd be buying him now. I've watched carefully for a while, and in the past two months, I've finally become sold on the big man, not only as an invaluable part of the bizarre The Wyatt Family, but as a potential breakout star on his own. Finding your way, and blazing your own unique path is no easy task in WWE, especially when standing in the very long shadow of Bray Wyatt. But Harper has found that way. I wasn't ready to buy into the Bruiser Brody comparison, no matter how many times it was brought up. Brody, a legend in the business, and a huge inspiration on my own career, was known as "the intelligent monster." Harper has excelled in my mind, by stepping off that path that Brody blazed, and finding his own, unique way to excel in WWE - as the guy who can do anything at any time, without any seeming rhyme or reason. The hurricanrana followed by a dropkick makes perfect sense, because it makes absolutely no sense. Here's one wrestling fan looking forward to Luke Harper's matches making little sense, but a huge impact on WWE Monday Night Raw for a long time to come." - Mick Foley praises Luke Harper

According to Foley, he is still doing business with WWE. He recently made an appearance at NHL game and is scheduled to do an NBA game for the company soon.

As many of you already now, Diamond Dallas Page has found a great deal of success after professional wrestling. His yoga program has been purchased by thousands of people worldwide, and the business has been thriving. The former world heavyweight champion has hired a new instructor in former ECW star Stevie Richards, who will be relocating to Atlanta to start his full time job soon.
November 20, 2014
There's been quite a bit of speculation this week about former divas returning to WWE. The latest name on the rumor mill is Maryse Ouellet. A big part of that is because the Miz mentioned the possibility on Twitter. There are those that believe that Maryse could be interested in a return, if it meant that she would get a spot on Total Divas. The exposure could help her business ventures exponentially.
November 18, 2014
Through Twitter, CM Punk revealed to his fans that has now been married to AJ Lee for exactly six months. He joked that people thought they were not going to last, so he wants them to pay up on the bet. AJ made a joke as well. The WWE Divas Champion noted how the two of them were buddies on screen not too long ago. Thus far, their marriage has not affected business relationships for either of them.
November 15, 2014
It looks the business relationship between Alberto Del Rio and WWE has finally come to a close, as both sides released statements today informing their fans of that. The belief is that a settlement agreement has been made backstage. Del Rio will more than likely never pursue legal action against the company for firing him, while WWE is allowing him to work for any promotion in the world that he wants to.
November 10, 2014
While TNA is having difficulties finding a new home for Impact Wrestling, Eric Bischoff is showing off his knack for getting television networks to give him air time. WGN has announced that they have ordered the first season of Outlaw Country, which is being produced by Bischoff and longtime business partner Jason Hervey. The show will be about the war between sets of brothers on different sides of the law in a Missouri town.
November 8, 2014
In a rather interesting bit of business news, the Honky Tonk Man has revealed that he owns the trademark to the Patriot gimmick, which was used in WCW and WWE. He stated that he has owned it since 2007, which means that Del Wilkes, who has continued to use the gimmick on the independent wrestling circuit over the years, could be legally forced to find a new character to portray.
November 1, 2014
While it seemed all but certain that Impact Wrestling was going to have a new home in 2015, reports are now surfacing that TNA and Spike TV are close to finalizing a deal to keep the business relationship going. Sources have stated that the two sides have been in negotiation the entire time, even as TNA was allowed to seek a contract with another television network. Dixie Carter was expected to make an announcement this week, but if there is a chance to remain with Spike, the reveal could be delayed.
November 1, 2014
If Jeff Jarrett wants Global Force Wrestling to do well right off the bat, then he's going to need some familiar faces on the show. Though he has been gone from WWE for quite some time now, John Morrison remains a familiar face with wrestling fans. The two of them are booked for a match against one another at an independent wrestling show on December 6, and Morrison has acknowledged that they will be discussing some business backstage.
October 22, 2014
Reports have surfaced that TNA will announce their new television deal before the end of October. It is being said that Dixie Carter has informed business partners that an announcement is coming soon, in hopes of alleviating some of the concerns that they currently have with Impact Wrestling. Still no word yet on which network the company will be signing on with, though.
October 17, 2014
When Justin Roberts was given his release from WWE after Monday Night Raw ended, there were a good amount of people who were upset with the company for dropping him unceremoniously. Overwhelmed by the support, the announcer went online and asked fans not to be angry. He stated that he was able to live out his dream for several years. Roberts was one of the more well liked guys backstage because of his passion and enthusiasm for the business.
October 15, 2014
While reports have surfaced that Kurt Angle has indeed been in negotiation with WWE on his final contract in the business, the former world heavyweight champion has not ruled out a potential return to TNA because the company is more than willing to give him the part time deal that he prefers. Angle has publicly stated that this will be his final contract as a wrestler, and he wants to try to gain more ground in Hollywood.
October 14, 2014
After doing a heel turn and joining the Bullet Club not too long ago, Jeff Jarrett returned to New Japan and continued the story line this week. The former world heavyweight champion crashed a press conference and declared himself as the Chairman of the Bullet Club. Jarrett has a business relationship with New Japan, so the story could transition over to Global Force Wrestling as well.
October 13, 2014
With Brock Lesnar taking the WWE championship home with him during his typical break from the business, Paul Heyman has been left hanging. The massively popular manager has been omitted from a couple of episodes of Monday Night Raw, including the latest one. Management simply cannot find something for him to do while Lesnar is not on television.
October 7, 2014
Looks like Jeff Jarrett has made a major stride in the formation of Global Force Wrestling. It has now been announced that the promotion will be doing a pay per view on January 4, 2015. Since he has a business relationship with New Japan, and they do their biggest pay per view event on that day, there are speculations that Jarrett could be promoting that show as a GFW branded event in the United States.
September 30, 2014
Wade Barrett hasn't been on television in quite some time now because he suffered a shoulder injury during a match with Jack Swagger. He was recently up in Toronto, so he sought the help of Trish Stratus, a former WWE diva who now runs a successful yoga business. Barrett stated that the workout session with Trish helped his shoulder feel a bit better.
September 27, 2014
It looks like the relationship between Mick Foley and WWE has greatly improved. The former world heavyweight champion eagerly announced to his fans that he will be doing a special one man comedy show in Brooklyn for the WWE Network later on this month. The two sides have long discussed the possibility of doing such a deal, but the company never pulled the trigger. The belief was that there were those within who were upset with comments that Foley had been making about WWE.
November 13, 2014
Fox wanted Mick Foley to portray Santa Clause in an upcoming episode of their hit series New Girls, but the Hardcore Legend had to turn it down. Upon reading the script, he found out that the producers wanted him to throw out some sexual innuendos while in costume. Foley, who happens to be a gigantic fan of Santa Clause, stated that he rejected the role because he has too much respect for the character.
November 1, 2014
With the amount of punishment that his body went through during his long professional wrestling career, Mick Foley understandably prefers that his children not follow his footsteps. However, that is exactly what is happening. Noelle Foley is reportedly training to become an in ring performer. The 20 year old is said to be training somewhere in the Long Island area.
October 12, 2014
A new sitcom called Wrestling With Joeylicious, and as the name suggests, it is centered around the world of professional wrestling. The lead character clings on to his dreams by working at low level independent wrestling shows. Producers have managed to sign Roddy Piper, Mick Foley, Tito Santana and Jimmy Snuka to make an appearance on the show. They will each be portraying themselves.
September 25, 2014
All those years of taking vicious bumps in a wrestling ring have taken a toll on Mick Foley. The WWE legend revealed that he is going in for back surgery this month. Foley states that it is a minor procedure, but he hopes that it will produce major improvements. The former world heavyweight champion said that the pain in his back for the last two weeks have been beyond excruciating.
September 4, 2014
Considering the amount of pain that he withstood for the sake of entertaining fans over the years, it is a bit surprising that Mick Foley did not spend more time on the sidelines. He has retired from WWE now, but an injury is preventing him from working. Back issues have prompted the former world heavyweight champion to cancel an upcoming appearance in Denver. No word yet on whether or not it will be rescheduled.
August 27, 2014
While he may not be on great terms with WWE officials, Mick Foley apparently is still on very good terms with a lot of the performers. A handful of them, including Road Dogg, took the time and made the effort to go watch his comedy show in Ventura. The venue is approximately 90 minutes away from the Staples Center, where Summerslam 2014 will be held.
August 16, 2014
Some wrestling fans take it too far. Someone recently posted that they wanted to get a tattoo of a blood Mick Foley on their body. The WWE legend himself tried to put a stop to that. Foley advised the person that it would not be a smart move because it is something permanent. It would be something that the person would have to explain to a future spouse.
August 10, 2014
"Dolph Ziggler has got to be one of the toughest men to put on a pair of boots, but he's going to be like Mick Foley in another five years because that kid beats his body up more than anybody on the crew. I do know this, in my dealings with him, when I'm his producer, he gives everything he's got. He does some really phenomenal and athletic stuff." - Arn Anderson thinks WWE should push Ziggler
July 20, 2014
For whatever reasons, Mick Foley took to social media this week to defend Batista, stating that it was unfair for fans to have this much hate towards him and his WWE return. Foley mentioned that Batista was at the wrong place at the wrong time because fans were so desperate to see Daniel Bryan being given a proper push. He also feels that not enough people are happy for Batista being featured in a big movie this summer.
July 14, 2014
Another source of discontent for WWE performers lately is the amount of the royalty checks that are being handed out. Wrestlers who used to receive $70,000 quarterly checks for the video game are now reportedly receiving closer to $10,000. There has been some proof of that, as Mick Foley was quite vocal towards WWE about the decrease in royalties earlier in the year. A lot of the top level performers received approximately $1,500 on their second quarterly royalty check, which surprised a lot of people backstage.
July 10, 2014
During a recent interview, Mick Foley was asked about the possible return of CM Punk to WWE, and the hardcore legend revealed something a bit interesting. Foley stated that he has attempted to contact Punk, but Punk has ignored all communications with Foley. The brutally honest Foley also mentioned that he believes that Punk is ignoring the majority of people in the industry right now.
June 28, 2014
Those that have been following Mick Foley closely over the last year are aware that there is some sort of backstage heat between he and Vince McMahon. WWE has given him the cold shoulders on a couple of occasions. Foley has now revealed a possible source of that friction. He accidentally sent a message to McMahon while trying to send to Brie Bella and Daniel Bryan. The content of that message was Foley complaining about WWE not doing the right thing and putting Bryan over when his popularity was at its peak.
June 27, 2014
Through his personal blog on Facebook, Mick Foley revealed that he was supporting Dolph Ziggler. The WWE legend also revealed why he was rooting for the former world heavyweight champion. He stated that fans were behind Ziggler during his push because they knew that he had worked hard to get to the top. Foley wants WWE to get fans to believe that hard work pays off by pushing Ziggler again.
June 24, 2014
"I wasn't sold on him. I wasn't sold on the idea that they kept comparing him to Bruiser Brody, because Brody for the longtime wrestling fan was one of the great wrestlers of his era or of all time. But he was known as the intelligent monster and Harper was an out of control maniac. I think once you stop trying to imitate somebody and find your own way things really start clicking. So, I've been watching him and things have really been clicking and after the Wyatts have this amazing run, hopefully as long as possible, yeah, I do think he has what it takes to become a singles star." - Mick Foley shares his views on Luke Harper and his potential to become a star in WWE

Michael Bradley: Contributions to recent reports 'shameful,' 'embarrassing,' and cross the line
Mar 21, 2013, 12:32 AM EST
"I think it is shameful," was Michael Bradley's reaction. The U.S. Men's National Team midfielder was asked for this thoughts on Monday's Sporting News feature that detailed criticisms of U.S. head coach Jurgen Klinsmann.
Eleven current players as well as another 11 sources close to the team were given anonymity in exchange for their participation. For Bradley, their contributions amounted to a betrayal.
"[Y]ou cross a line when you take those thoughts and you take your disappointments outside of the team and outside of the inner circle," Bradley told the assembled media in Colorado. "So for me, it doesn't help anybody, it doesn't help anything that we are trying to do this week."
Bradley becomes the third veteran of the national team to offer his thoughts in the wake to the Sporting News' piece. Carlos Bocanegra posted his thoughts on Facebook Monday night, a defense a Jurgen Klinsmann's communication with his players. On Tuesday, Tim Howard spoke out against the notion that the U.S.'s is a locker room divided.
"On every team in the world, not every guy is going to be happy," Bradley explained, "on every team in the world there are going to be guys who go back to their room and talk with their roommate about things that they wish were different, things they wish would be done another way, but that is normal."
The problems start when those critiques go beyond the team's inner circles. Or, as Bradley put it, when players don't have "the balls" to speak in front of the group.
"When you play on a team you have a chance everyday to give everything you have and part of that means having the balls to say things to guys to their face, having the balls to say things in front of the team.
"In those ways it is really disappointing that in a week as important as this, with so much on the line, that you would have something like that happen."
Bradley called for the U.S. to turn their attentions to the field, saying the team "let ourselves down a little bit" given the revelations in Sporting News' work.
"It is our job to represent ourselves and represent our country in a way that makes everybody proud."
With three veterans speaking out and another being named captain, the week's controversy seems to be unifying the team – in word and action if not in actual camaraderie. The actual bonds between players can only be seen from inside the dressing room, though one thing we can infer from Bradley's comments is that these issues had not been brought up within the group at large. If there is major dissension in the ranks, it's not bubbling up for team-wide discussion.
Then again, that seems to be Bradley's main issue. Reports say there are problems, their existence may go beyond a select few, yet the team leaders aren't seeing anybody step forward to bring them to the group.
And that leaves the obvious, lingering question: Which players contributed to Sporting News' report? Are these fringe players unhappy with Klinsmann's decisions (and their roles in the team)? Are the most damning critiques — the ones creating the most waves — from players? Or are they from the sources most distant from the current core?
Because as of now, three of the team's most important players have spoken out to clarify the situation. Though it's possible they contributed in some form, they seem unlikely to be the ones giving the anonymous accounts. So, who did?

October 17 2011
Another GMA Artist Center (GMAAC) talent is slowly making her way into the international scene as she essays the lead role in an international film shot in its entirety in Indonesia recently.
The pretty and talented Gwen Zamora just arrived from a couple of months' shoot. She is the leading actress in the independently-produced film "The Witness' by Indonesian producer Skylar Pictures based in PT. Mutiara Warna in Indonesia. The movie is helmed by famous Indonesian director Muhammad Yusuf.
The movie paves the way for a mutually beneficial partnership between GMAAC and Skylar Pictures as the latter is now officially the partner of local network in Indonesia. "Expect more international projects for our very own artists from GMAAC to come out of this partnership," GMAAC head Ida Henares said.
In the movie, Gwen plays the role of the only surviving member of a family that has been massacred while inside their home. The tragic experience left the young woman, Angel Flordeliza Isagani, in a state of shock and panic, nightmares and premonitions marring her once upon a time peaceful existence. She ends up confined in a hospital where she continued to be haunted by the terrible memory of her family's death. This is where the movie begins to unfold as a suspense-thriller.
Gwen said the experience of filming in Indonesia was physically taxing but "I was not complaining because I have learned a lot. I loved every minute of working with the outstanding cast and crew there," she said.
Gwen had been handpicked to play the role when the producers saw her at the GMAAC office when they purposedly traveled to Manila to cast the leading lady in "The Witness."
Director Muhammad Yusuf said Gwen's beauty stunned them in the beginning but her acting proved to be another excellent story. "We are very pleased with her work for 'The Witness,' he said.
Working with an Indonesian staff came easy for Gwen, being a product of different cultures by blood and upbringing - including French, Italian, Vietnamese and Filipino.
The well-traveled Gwen said of her childhood experience, "having been 'ping-ponged' from one country to another made me very street-smart. I can talk to different people and connect with them since my values and ideologies are multi-cultural," she said. That background certainly came in handy for the actress for this specific project.
Gwen first caught our attention as the "Faye" in Vic Sotto's "Enteng Kabisote" film festival entry last year. Born in Australia, Gwen took up digital filmmaking course in College of St. Benilde before she was spotted by GMAAC and became its contract artist.
The young actress knows what she wants in the business. "I always put my heart and soul into anything I do. I'm pretty confident I can handle anything thrown my way. I love challenges," she points out as she looks at the Indonesian film as probably one of the nicest things that this business has thrown her way this early.

Doctors, Researchers Warn of Dangerous Rise of Drug-Resistant Bacteria
The rise of drug-resistant bacteria is causing major public health concerns and prompting worries that antibiotics may soon be useless against fighting infections.
"We oftentimes think about something like antibiotic resistance as a problem that other people might have or it could happen to somebody else," said David Hoffman, an investigative journalist who reported on this issue in a recent PBS FRONTLINE documentary. "But we as a society have a looming problem that some of these bacteria, some of the harmful ones, are becoming resistant to our last-resort, very best antibiotics."
Antibiotics are different from other drugs in that they become less effective the more they are used. After being exposed to a certain type of antibiotic, bacteria can evolve in order to become resistant to it.
"These bacteria have had years and years of being bombarded with our antibiotics, in large measure because we overused them, because we took too many of them. But, as they evolve, they think of defense mechanisms to fight back," explained Hoffman.
As more and more infections become resistant to antibiotics, the post-antibiotic world is becoming more of a reality; a reality Hoffman says could look very different than the world we live in today.
"You only have to look at a time when infections were dealt with automatically by surgery. There were no antibiotics," he said. "And when antibiotics were invented and when they came along after World War II, consider what they did for modern medicine. We have sophisticated surgeries today like transplants because of antibiotics."
"We have cancer treatments that are only successful because of antibiotics. So a post-antibiotic age won't only mean the danger of infection, but a lot of things that we have innovated in medicine, a lot of the most important therapies won't be available if we don't have antibiotics."
Warm up questions
- How do we become infected with bacteria? Where are the most common places to find bacteria?
- Can you explain why we build up resistance to bacteria?
- What are the most dangerous bacterial infections?
Discussion questions
- Can you explain why we build up resistance to bacteria?
- How can we alter the course we are on of using too many antibiotics?
- What might a world without antibiotics look like?

Boy truant 62 days, mom arrested
Updated On: Jul 22 2013 10:16:18 AM CDT
Sixty-two missed days of school landed one elementary school student's mom in jail.
Suffolk police arrested Stacey Warmack, the mother of a 12-year-old student at Booker T. Washington Elementary in Virginia.
"I don't think he's missed 62 days of school, but if that's what they're saying I'm not gonna say no," she said.
Warmack said the school bus doesn't come to her house, and she couldn't take him because she had back surgery.
And he wanted to be with his mom, she said.
"He would not leave me. He would not leave this house for nothing in the world. He wanted to be up on his mom, being with me and everything and that's just how my son is. He's a mother's boy," she said.

Product description
Known to be proud, regal and beautiful, Cecily Neville was born in the year of the great English victory at Agincourt and survived long enough to witness the arrival of the future Henry VIII, her great-grandson. Her life spanned most of the fifteenth century. Cecily's marriage to Richard, Duke of York, was successful, even happy, and she travelled with him wherever his career dictated, bearing his children in England, Ireland and France, including the future Edward IV and Richard III. What was the substance behind her claim to be 'queen by right'? Would she indeed have made a good queen during these turbulent times? One of a huge family herself, Cecily would see two of her sons become kings of England but the struggles that tore apart the Houses of Lancaster and York also turned brother against brother. Cecily's life cannot have been easy. Images of her dripping in jewels and holding her own alternative 'court' might belie the terrible heartache of seeing her descendants destroy each other. In attempting to be the family peacemaker, she frequently had to make heart-wrenching choices, yet these did not destroy her. She battled on, outliving her husband, friends, rivals and most of her children, to become one of the era's great survivors.

Review quote
'Amy Licence has given us an insight into the life of a prominent and significant leader during the Wars of the Roses. That she was a woman explains why this glance is so rare and so valuable. As mother of the three sons of York - Edward, George and Richard - she helped put two kings of England on the throne. As grandmother of the Princes in the Tower she was present at the greatest mystery in English history. Nicknamed the 'Rose of Raby' for her famous beauty, she was the loving and loyal wife of the York lord who started the Wars of the Roses. This is a considered and scholarly account of the matriarch of the House of York' Philippa Gregory 'A long overdue biography of one of the most dramatic medieval heroines - vivid, very readable, and wonderfully detailed' Sarah Gristwood 'We have long needed a full-length biography of one of England's most famous medieval queens, the story of whose life spans the entire tumult of the Wars of the Roses. Licence's work is a readable and engaging portrait of life at the centre of power during a remarkable age, filled with detail that brings Cecily Neville and her age to life.' CHRIS SKIDMORE, author of Bosworth: The Birth of the Tudors 'The story of Cecily Neville has been neglected for too long. Amy Licence has written a well-researched, thoughtful and deeply perceptive biography of this important lady.' JOSEPHINE WILKINSON, author of Richard III: The Young King to Be 'A readable, sympathetic portrayal of a medieval woman and her world. Amy Licence provides an engaging narrative of Cecily's life and times, incorporating a wealth of fascinating detail.' DAVID SANTIUSTE, author of Edward IV and the Wars of the Roses
