Nino Bless - God'll Cut you Down
Artist: Nino Bless
Producer: Engineer
Album: A B*tch Named Karma
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 14 votes )
Though classic country and modern hip-hop are two genres not typically found on the same iPod, it should come as no surprise that Nino Bless considers Johnny Cash an all-time fave, and a major inspiration for his own work; as our own DJ Z put it last May, when Marky stepped into the Booth with his own Cash-sampled cut, the man was "a real OG." On inaugural mixtape leak God'll Cut You Down, Bless channels the Man in Black as he takes aim at the snake-oil salesman who profit off a vulnerable public. Engineer mans the boards, flipping a sample from the similarly-titled God's Gonna Cut You Down as the Brooklyn rapper skewers everyone from dime-a-dozen pimps and drug-dealers to white-collar crooks and even Vatican officials. Of course, Nino will be the first to admit he's committed his own share of sins; on the back, he asks the Lord's forgiveness for "the women I've corrupted… all the stuff that I've lusted over with no reluctance, all the folks that I've let down and failed them when they trusted." Like what you're hearing? More dark, introspective jams await on Bless' A B*tch Named Karma mixtape, due out in March.

1986 Chevrolet Camaro Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 53 reviews
In the era of "Baby on Board" hangtags, Camaro jumped on adding the safety bandwagon by adding third break light, but declined to put in any space for the aforementioned baby. The 1986 Camaro featured a new third break light within the hatch, and continued to feature a back seat so limited in space that it was only slightly safer than Britney Spears' baby's perch in her lap.
Like other models from the Third Generation, the 1986 Camaro was cited for being in the shop quite a bit. However, the excitement of the ride when the car is on the road seems to compensate for the extra work needed to be put in the car. The acceleration and cornering were excellent, and the car's top speed seems almost limitless at times.

Arvest.com sponsored the 21st Annual Arkansas-Oklahoma Cross Country All-Stars Meet which took place Nov. 15 at the Rogers (Ark.) High School cross country course. Arvest proudly supports the communities it serves, including local schools and athletic programs. The All-Star Meet brought together a team of high school all-stars from each state for an annual border clash. This year it was hosted by Rogers (Ark.) High School and conducted by the Arkansas Track Coaches Association. While the temperature was in the mid-20s, and wind and rain visited the course, the runners attacked the 5K grass course with abandon and posted some nationally competitive times. Adrena Mazzei (Berryhill High School) led the way for Oklahoma in the girls' race with a winning time of 18:42, just steps ahead of teammate Isabella Rose (Norman North High School) at 18:45. Kyandra Chandler (Nettleton High School) of the Arkansas squad was 5th in at 19:21. Ben Barrett (Norman North High School) won the boys' race for Oklahoma in a near course record time of 15:35 followed by Sooner State teammate Isai Rodriquez (Ringwood High School) at 15:46. Josh Kruse (Bentonville High School) led the Natural State team in 5th at 16:10. Oklahoma swept the team results with a 61-121 win in the boys' race and by 60-125 in the girls' race. Each finisher in the top 25 received a medallion commemorating the meet.

That time of year is once again upon us. When Americans gather around the table with friends and family members to feast and give gratitude for the annual tradition that is Thanksgiving. But before you come to the table with your turkey platter and gravy, take a moment to read these turkey preparation and safety tips from the United States Department of Agriculture. Turkey Thawing When a turkey is frozen, it is safe from bacteria. However, once it begins to thaw, bacteria can start to grow. The good news is there are three relatively easy ways to thaw frozen turkeys — in your refrigerator, in cold water or in the microwave. Whichever method you choose, it's important to note until you are ready to thaw your frozen turkey, it should be immediately placed in your freezer. A frozen turkey should also never be left outside or in your car, where the temperatures vary. In the refrigerator:
In cold water:
In the microwave:
Cooking a Turkey Once you've completely thawed your turkey you're ready to cook it. Note these important tips about cooking:
Unstuffed turkeys (time in hours)
Stuffed turkeys (time in hours)
Once cooked, let the turkey sit for at least 20 minutes before carving. These are just a few of many safety tips to ensure your turkey feast is safe and delicious. For a comprehensive list, visit the USDA.gov.* You'll be thankful you took the time to read them.

Tuesday CCC Updates
- Thanks again to Chris Henning, Ted Berger, the entire Northbrook Garner Cycling Club and Flatlandia crews, and volunteers for anther great Melas CX Basin Racin' event. We had unseasonably (but thankfully) warm temperatures and some rain to give the CCC it's first sloppy race of the season. It was no surprise that experienced racers Emma Swartz (Wheel & Sprocket) and Joseph Maloney (KS Energy Service/Team Wisconsin) won the elite races. Sydney Guadliardo (Verdigris-Village CX) and Sarah Szefi (PSIMET Racing) rounded out the women's podium with Swartz while Alexander Martin (Revolution Cycles) and Michael Dutczak (South Chicago Wheelmen) joined Maloney on the men's podium. Full results are here and CCC Overall standings are here.
- Next up the CCC takes a week off but PSIMET Racing keeps the CX party going with NORGE Ski Jump Cyclocross this coming SUNDAY 11/30/14. Online pre-reg closes tomorrow (Wednesday) night.
- The following weekend the CCC heads into the city of Chicago to finish up where is always does at Montrose Harbor at the 2014 Illinois Cyclocross Championships hosted by the Ten27 Cycling Club and Spidermonky Cycling. We'll have more details next week but expect all the greatness you've come to know that happens at Montrose.
- Get your 2014 CCC Series t-shirts and beer coozies here.
- Even thinking about going to CX Nationals in Austin, TX? Talk to Chandler and the guys at ProBike Express.
- This year 10 of the 16 CCC Series Overall titles will be decided at Montrose. That's more fields than any other in the past which just goes to show the level of competition you all have brought to the series this year. That's not to take anything away from the 6 racers who have already locked up their series overall titles though. So please join us in congratulating the following:
– Masters 55+ – Gregory Anderson (Spin Doctor Cyclewerks CX Team)
– Masters 65+ – Albert Weigel (Verdigris-Village CX)
– Junior 15-18 Boys – Juan Gonzalez (Bloomington Cycle Racing Team)
– Women Cat 4 – Mary Randall (ROBOTS <3)
– Women Cat 3 – Kae Takeshita (Verdigris-Village CX)
– Cat 1/2/3 – David Reyes (Heritage Race Club)
- And finally… as we all pause to give thanks this coming Thursday and eat ourselves into collective food comas, the CCC would like to say we are especially thankful for a great many things… you the riders, our race promoters, USAC officials, First Aid medics, volunteers, press officers, race announcers, mechanics, parents, children, brothers, sisters, husbands, wives, significant others, hecklers, and many, many more we know we are forgetting. But when you hear the words "anytime between now and the next 30 seconds" outside BestBuy at 4am on Friday morning… remember the CCC has 35 series sponsors that help to make our little weekend parties happen. Almost all of our series sponsors are local, many of whom are out there racing with us, including bike shop owners, wheel builders, mobile security manufacturers, clothing manufacturers, sunglass manufacturers, car dealerships, hydration/nutrition suppliers, lawyers, real estate brokers, personal trainers, coaches, IT consultants, automobile insurance agents, creative designers, and lest we forget photographers. So when you are thinking about purchasing gifts this coming holiday season or planning out personal/business expenses for 2015, please consider spending some of your hard earned cash dollars with these businesses. Happy Thanksgiving!!!
2014 Melas CX-Basin Racin' Pix and Vids and Race Reports
2014 Melas CX-Basin Racin' Preview
- #MelasCX and more here. Preliminary staging will be posted here before Sunday.
- Chris Henning and Ted Berger (Northbrook Garner Bicycle Club and Flatlandia) take us racin' through the basin.
- Parking: This is much different than last year. There is no parking at Melas Park. A dog park was built there over the summer and we need to keep the lot clear for the locals using the dog park. Parking will be at Multi Pack Solutions @1804 W. Central Rd., Mt. Prospect, IL which is behind (to the north of) Robert Bosch Tool Corporation. Registration and S/F are adjacent to the Multi Pack lot. There is a pedestrian gate to access Melas Park from the Multi Pack lot. The Multi Pack lot is located to the West of the Melas Park entrance, just east of S. Arthur Ave.
- Team Trailers. Please e-mail Chris Henning if you're planning on bringing out a trailer, he will try and coordinate a setup location for you.
- Food truck: Pizza Via will be onsite serving brick-oven pizzas.
- Coffee: Other Brother Coffee will be serving warm caffeinated beverages.
- Warm Ups: Please stay off the ball fields while warming up and if you do use the walking paths please making sure to yield to any pedestrians / other park users.
- Speaking of cars, no parking on the grass – anywhere. There is plenty of parking available. This includes team vehicles intending on dropping off team tent and compound equipment.
- Park rules: Sorry, we don't make them but we do have to follow them… no alcohol allowed. Please be respectful of the park.
- Dog Park: Unfortunately you must have a "membership" to get inside the fenced dog park which is available from either Mt. Prospect or Arlington Heights (Costco membership does not cut it :). dog park membership
- Breakdown: Now that the official sunset time is literally minutes after the end of the Cat 4/5 race, Garner & Flatlandia would appreciate any help tearing down the course after the Cat 4/5 race.
- Announcing: Kenny Labbe will be back and announcing all day long.
- Weather: It's going to be chilly and wet on Sunday, so please bundle up and bring appropriate clothing for before, during, and after your race(s)!
- No kids race this weekend… a little too sloppy.
- Volunteering: Melas CX is still looking for a few volunteers spots to be filled. Volunteers race for free & lunch is provided. Please sign-up here.
- The Course: A bit different from last year. Same tough hill(s) getting out of the Basin. Please remember the course might change based on conditions encountered during setup.
Tuesday CCC Updates
- Another great double weekend at the Hilton Indian Lakes Resort hosted by the South Chicago Wheelmen. Well you asked for it and you got it. We finally had some real cyclocross weather this weekend at ILR. Saturday's race temps were down in the teens for most of the day. Our elite podiums consisted of Sydney Guagliardo (Verdigris-Village) who got her first (and second) win of the series followed by Corrie Karas and Kelli Richter (PSIMET). Meanwhile in the men's race Dan Teaters (Wheel & Sprocket) won followed by series leader David Reyes (Heritage) and Maxx Hall (Verdigris-Village).
- Sunday was an entirely different day after snow blanketed the course Saturday night and the track became extremely wet and slippery throughout the day with riders wiping out all over the course. Our podiums for the elite women were Sydney Guagliardo (Verdigris-Village) for her 2nd win of the weekend, Kelli Richter (PSIMET) and Emily Elbers (Marian). For the men, local road pro Brandon Feehery took the top step racing for his school Lindenwood in a super close finish edging out Saturday's winner Dan Teaters (Wheel & Sprocket) in the second to last turn, with David Lombardo (Verdigris-Village) in third. Special shout out to Kenny Labbe for keeping the energy high throughout the cold, snowy, and windy weekend.
- Full results are on USAC here and CrossResults.com Saturday and Sunday. Series overall standings are here.
- Just in case you've been living under a rock, John Gatto has been producing some great videos of each CCC event from a different perspective. Check out ILR Saturday and Sunday.
- Next up the CCC heads closer to the city of Chicago in Prospect Heights for Melas CX Basin Racin'. The weather looks delightful so get your bikes into a LBS for service now!
- Not this weekend but next weekend the CCC takes a break to eat tofukey and cranberry dressing but you can still get your CX fix. The crew from Psimet will host Norge Ski Jump Cyclocross on SUNDAY 11/30/14. Gobble Gobble!
- Then on Sunday 12/7/14 the CCC finishes up at Montrose Harbor at the Illinois State CX Championships. We'll have lots more details for Montrose in the next few weeks, but the rad guys and gals at the Chicago Cuttin' Crew have already committed to providing podium medals for the top 3 Single Speed Women (who will still be racing with the men). Also, no categories at Montrose have filled yet, so if you end up on a waitlist and then don't get to race its your own fault.
- Paul Warloski of Milwaukee Bicycle Company will be at Melas CX Basin Racin' Sunday with the MBC Mettle, a steel cross bike that Cyclocross Magazine called a "great bike for a reasonable cost." He'll have Mettles to test ride, even race if you want to try one out. He'll be at Melas from 8am to 4pm with a break to use his own Mettle in the 45+ race.
- And finally… Juniors, or more to the point their parents… if you have pre-reg'd and shown up to race and are due your entry fee "refund" and would rather donate those monies to a youth program such as West Town Bikes or Blackstone Bikes, please let us know and we can make that happen.
2014 Indian Lakes Resort Pix and Vids and Race Reports
Just a reminder that everyone needs to sign in and get a new number tomorrow… DO NOT race with your number from Saturday or you will not be scored
2014 Indian Lakes Resort Preview
- #ILRcx More venue/course info here.
- Preliminary staging will be posted here for Saturday and Sunday. Saturday's results will affect Sunday's staging.
- SCW has increased payouts per the CCC maxiumum even though pre-reg numbers are not >600 riders. Cat 1/2/3 and Women Cat 1/2/3 will each split $900 over 7 places both days (2 Day * 2 Categories * $900 = $3,600).
- SRAM neutral support in the equipment pit both days.
- As per usual this time of year the forecast is for high winds and low temps. SCW asks that everyone take down your tents, all the way, Saturday night. You may leave your tent(s) on premise overnight.
- There will be hoses available to wash your bike(s), but not in the equipment pit. The hose is located next to the pro-shop just outside the door to registration. SCW is working on getting a power washer for the pits, but not promises.
- Do not bring your bikes inside when coming to the registration room. Please leave them outside. Thanks!
- No warming up on the fairways or west of the course. The other courses are still open to golfers… yeah, they think we are crazy too for riding our bikes in this type of weather.
- Please stay off the putting greens at all times.
- Kenny Labbe will be on the mic again both days.
- Kids cx is on but for Sunday only. "Racing" starts at 2pm.
- Bring your bathing suit for the pool and hot tub.
- The Cave Bar will be open as well as an all you can eat buffet in the Masters restaurant.
- Speaking of the Cave… there will be an informal party Saturday night. Come say hello!
- The course: Classic ILR features with a few new sections and run clockwise. Approximation of this weekend's course is below and the course will change slightly from Saturday to Sunday.
Tuesday CCC Updates
- With a couple minutes taken off the lap times from last year, the PSI-clocross for Life course was still able to throw a bit of everything at racers. It was the first time we'd seen sand in the series, and it showed as there was a lot of reshuffling there. Heckle Hill was another place that a lot of movement took place, some ran, some rode, and others tried to ride, gave up and figured maybe it was best to run. Either way if you were doing something wrong you were sure to hear about it from the bullhorn in the PSIMET tent.
In a showing of the talent being drawn to the races, we saw both elite podiums represented by 3 different states. We had a fresh name in front the men's 1/2/3 field with Kevin McConnell (Mercy Specialized) from Iowa taking the victory ahead of David Lombardo (Verdigris-Village CX) and Ian Haupt (Milwaukee Bicycle Company Racing).
In the womens field Samantha Schneider (TIBCO/To the Top) is batting 1000 as she grabbed her 2nd win, Brittany McConnell (Mercy Specialized) moved up a step from last week to 2nd this time, while Sydney Guagliardo (Verdigris-Village CX) rounded out the elite podium. Full results are here and here and updated series standings are here.
- Next up the CCC heads to the Indian Lakes Resort in Bloomingdale, IL for the series' one and only double weekend hosted by South Chicago Wheelmen. Remember online pre-reg on BikeReg closes Wednesday night for both races, so don't come crying to us on Thursday saying you missed pre-reg. But even if you do you will still be staged by your CCC series points if you reg Day Of.
- Indian Lakes Resort has all the amenities you could ask for but more importantly there is a hotel. There are still rooms available and you can get the CCC discount using code (not the group code) "CYC" or "cyclocross".
- Chris Henning and his crew are looking for volunteers to help run the Melas CX Basin Racin' event. Sign up here and race for free and get lunch.
- Let's have a quick chat about Internet trolls. We are well aware of everyone's First Amendment rights to free speech, and we have never censored any comments here on the CCC site, nor do we ever want to do so. But just as you may not want to input your actual email address into the comments for fear of some sort of malicious spam bot somehow finding it and filling your inbox with junk, we're pretty sure no one visiting this website wants to read your anonymous junk comments. So… if you're going to post a ridiculously rude comment here on the CCC site, be man or woman enough to leave your actual name and email address so others can reply back to you directly. Otherwise head over to YouTube where the comment sections are priceless and your contributions will have a more appropriate audience. Thanks!
- For those of you already getting into the giving spirits of the holidays… check out the new World Bicycle Relief video: www.worldbicyclerelief.org/power. Just as in years past all donations made between now and 12/31/2014 are matched, up to $1million. The CCC will be donating all of the donations you the riders have donated through BikeReg in a lump sum shortly after the Montrose Harbor Illinois State CX Championships.
- And finally… The West Town Bikes (WTB) CX program has been providing sponsorship, mentorship and coaching to juniors and young adults that would otherwise not have the opportunity to participate in cyclocross events for 6 seasons. Here are some photos from our last 4 seasons. The fitness and commitment that cyclocross requires teaches perseverance and provides a healthy energy output while skills, knowledge and friendships gained help form a socially intelligent, responsible and physically fit community member all while growing the sport. Half Acre Cycling, Half Acre Brewery, The Bonebell, Chicago Cuttin Crew and Seth Gable have all been key in getting us through the end of last year and this season. We have a Pactimo team store open, password is westtownbikes, as one way we are outfitting our team and raising awareness for the program. Jerseys purchased through the store can go to the purchaser or be gifted to the program. We need smalls and mediums of all types. Many of the adults you see wearing the WTB jersey are volunteers or youth instructors in the organization.

Creating a meal from scratch is both challenging and delicious, much like playing "Stairway to Heaven" on a clarinet made out of a candy cane. Master meal melding with this Groupon.
Choose from Three Options
- $7.99 for a 12-ounce bottle of olive oil or balsamic vinegar (a $16 value)
- $15.99 for a 24-ounce bottle of 18-year-old traditional balsamic vinegar (a $32 value)
- $4.99 for a 10-ounce bottle of stuffed California olives (a $10 value)
Outrageous Olive Oils and Vinegars
With a light flick of the knob, a slow stream of balsamic vinegar flows from the spigot of a steel fusti at Outrageous Olive Oils and Vinegars. It's the final step in a process that began 18 years ago in Modena, Italy, where vinegar makers crushed trebbiano grapes and sealed them in wood barrels—the technique necessary for vinegar to earn a classification as traditional balsamic. These meticulous standards extend to the rest of Outrageous Olive Oils and Vinegars' elixirs. Owners John and Rayna recruit olive oil that has been cold-pressed, extracted without chemicals, and infused with all-natural flavors. Additionally, their expert staff are on hand to help customers navigate the shop's selection of 35 olive oils and vinegars, pointing out each bottle's country of origin, flavor notes, and messages written by castaways. They also draw on their own culinary expertise to suggest recipes and flavor pairings.
The Blood Orange EVOO and Cinnamon Pear Balsamic are my two favorite flavors along with Basil EVOO. I just cannot get enough of them.Linda P., Yelp, 11/7/12

Brandon Sun - ONLINE EDITION
Sunday, bloody Sunday: Ill-fated day for McEwen
NEEPAWA -- It was the fourth straight year of Sunday heartbreak for Mike McEwen this weekend at the 2013 Safeway Championship.
McEwen struggled through the first five ends of his semifinal against rival Jeff Stoughton Sunday morning, spotting Stoughton a 4-1 fifth-end lead on a McEwen flash that turned a game-tying deuce into a Stoughton steal, en route to a 5-3 loss that eliminated his squad.
McEwen took full responsibility for the loss. "I did that all by myself the first five ends," he said.
McEwen said his team was fully healthy and he felt mentally strong heading into a game against an opponent that has beaten him on Sunday twice before in the last three years.
"I felt great. I don't know. I can't really explain it. We knew we had to play good today regardless. You can play good and still lose to those guys but I felt great going into the game. I can't explain it," said McEwen, who has still yet to win a provincial title despite years of dominance on the cashspiel circuit.
The McEwen collapse was particularly striking after a Saturday that saw his team dominate in winning three straight games to stay alive.
"I don't know what (happened)," McEwen said. "How do you go from making everything to you can't even hit an open rock?"
The Rock still his home
HE'S going to be wearing a Bison on his back for the first time ever at the Brier in Edmonton next month, but Jeff Stoughton lead Mark Nichols says he will always be a Newfoundlander at heart.
The question now, however, is whether the folks back home in Newfoundland are going see it the same way.
"For me, it doesn't change anything. I'm still from Newfoundland, I love it, that's my home," said Nichols, who yesterday added a Manitoba men's title here in a 7-4 final of the Safeway Championship to the eight Newfoundland titles he previously won as third for Brad Gushue.
"But there's probably a lot of people back East who maybe might say I'm a traitor or something like that."
Nichols moved with his wife to Winnipeg last summer to replace Steve Gould as Stoughton's lead and take another shot at winning the same Trials event he won with Gushue in 2005 en route to Olympic gold in Torino.
But while a Trials run was the primary purpose of the move, the secondary result is that a man from probably the most fiercely proud province in the country is going to find himself in Edmonton playing against a province that named a street after him, as well as his longtime former skip, who also qualified for the Brier Sunday.
"If they want to take away my street, they can," Nichols laughed. "But I'm sure they won't... I moved here to curl and enjoy it and have fun. And I am. I don't regret the decision at all."
Lots of talent at Brier
GUSHUE is far from the only very familiar -- and talented -- name that's going to be curling at next month's Brier. Reigning Canadian and world champion Glenn Howard will represent Ontario, 2010 Olympic gold medallist Kevin Martin will represent Alberta, 2006 Brier champion Jean-Michel Menard will represent Quebec and 2005 Brier finalist Paul Flemming will represent Nova Scotia.
Yukon/NWT's Jamie Koe, New Brunswick's James Grattan, Saskatchewan's Brock Virtue and Northern Ontario's Brad Jacobs will also be in Edmonton.
The Jacobs foursome has a Manitoba connection in Ryan Fry, who has also previously represented both Manitoba and Newfoundland at the Brier.
Brent Pierce was playing Andrew Bilesky in the B.C. final Sunday night. The P.E.I. playdowns were delayed until at least Tuesday by the weekend storm in Atlantic Canada.
Carruthers wants more
JEFF Stoughton second Reid Carruthers struggled mightily at times on the final weekend, but made a couple of key shots in the first half of Sunday's win over Sean Grassie in the final.
Carruthers said the combination of his struggles at times and a flu that ran through the team on the final weekend really tested them as a unit.
"The start of the week I thought I played really well, but then I took a couple games off, that's for sure," said Carruthers. "But the guys really battled. And it was a struggle for them today too, because they weren't feeling very well. But our performance here today was pretty solid. I'm really excited."
Carruthers won a Brier and world championship in his first year with Stoughton in 2011 and said it only whetted his appetite for more.
"It's really driven me to want to get back there. Obviously the team has really jelled. This is the best, as far as cash on paper, cashspiel season we've had so far. Winning this has just capped it off. We're really excited."
Carruthers was also asked for his reaction to Stoughton's incredibly thin and difficult double-takeout for a deuce in the ninth end Sunday afternoon that effectively won his team the title.
"He never really... surprises me. I kind of expect him to make those, just because he always does."

HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software solves the problem of inefficient capacity utilization by breaking the traditional linkage between allocated and purchased capacity. Demand for thin provisioning solutions combined with increased attention to data center power consumption has put pressure on vendors to introduce thin provisioning solutions, but bolt-on implementations can't deliver the simplicity or the efficiency of Thin Provisioning.
With HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning, capacity is dedicated and configured autonomically, just-in-time, and without active management. Rather than create separate pools of storage, the software creates one pool from which capacity is dedicated only as data is actually written.
And while other thin provisioning implementations use coarse allocation units that can range from 1 MB to 17 GB, HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning uses a fine-grained, 16 KB allocation unit to increase system efficiency.
Enables Organizations To Do More with Less by Reducing Upfront Storage Costs
- HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software minimizes upfront disk drive purchases by reducing the number of disks required to store application date thanks to a "dedicate-on-write" approach that consumes physical capacity only as it is actually needed for written data.
- Draws and configures capacity in fine-grained increments from a single free space reservoir without pre-dedication of any kind—even for data with varying service level requirements, enabling enterprises to consolidate onto a single, dynamically tiered storage array with a reduced footprint.
- Fine-grained allocation unit size of just 16 KB (as compared to 1 MB ? 17 GB with other solutions) prevents small writes from consuming megabytes or even gigabytes of capacity or from filling volumes during file system setup before application data is ever written.
- Leverages the massive scalability of the HP 3PAR Storage System to enable customers to grow as business needs dictate by adding capacity easily and as needed instead of making a large up-front investment when legacy systems reach their capacity limits.
- Works with HP 3PAR Virtual Copy Software and HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software to eliminate unnecessary duplication of unwritten capacity during local and remote volume replication.
Reduces Operating Costs by Making Storage More Agile and Efficient
- HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software capacity reductions cut SAN costs, floor space requirements, and energy expenses up to 75%, easing recurring facilities and energy costs by eliminating the need to house, power, and cool drives that may not be needed for months or years to come or ever be needed.
- Autonomic implementation enables administrators to "set it and forget it". Capacity is dedicated and configured intelligently, just-in-time, and without active management without planning or the need to configure storage into intermediary pools.
- Reduces not only storage administration, but also system and database administrator workloads.
- Minimizes license fees paid for many storage software products that are based on system capacity, such as SRM tools.
- Enables lifetime, application-tailored storage to be provisioned in just seconds and with just a few clicks from within the unified HP 3PAR Management Console, which offers industry-leading ease of use.
Reduces Risk and Improves Return on Investment To Shift Resources from Operations to Innovation
- HP 3PAR Thin Provisioning Software enables a greater number of projects to be initiated for a lower cost by allowing more applications to be deployed with less infrastructure .
- Expedites deployment of new applications and services by eliminating volume planning and manual provisioning.
- Eliminates application downtime associated with reconfiguring volumes and adding capacity to applications.
- Frees IT from having to wait on budget allocation and storage purchasing to initiate new projects that will generate return for the business; allows instantaneous deployment of new applications and provisioning of storage for new clients without depending on the traditional storage purchasing cycle.
- Administrator-configurable allocation warnings and limits remove risk and the need for proactive monitoring by providing redundant mechanisms for automatically notifying administrators when physical capacity is being depleted and by preventing "runaway applications."

Dear Dr. P, why is it that hormones start flowing as soon as the booze does? Alcohol makes people relax and dance better, it's true, but why do people have more propensity to have sex under the influence?
Dorothy Parker, a poet and wit said "Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker," when referring to the un-inhibiting effects of alcohol on women. Men have traditionally asked "May I buy you a drink?" in their never-ending quest to loosen the inhibitions of persons that have become targeted as mating possibilities. A response of "Yes, I'll have a plain coke (or virgin strawberry daiquiri)," is likely to disappoint the intentions of the offer.
On the other hand, Shakespeare supposedly said "Wine increaseth the desire but diminisheth the performance." This means that a fall-down drunken fellow cannot rise to the occasion. This has been known for thousands of years.
Whereas a very intoxicated male cannot have or maintain an erection, a very intoxicated female does not have to have the same genital vasocongestion to engage in sexual intercourse. In this circumstance she may then become a passive recipient of the attentions of a male who thought both were engaging in a consensual sexual activity.
There have been numerous cases of charges brought against male students by coeds of "date-rape" a day or so after the fact. The males charged are often incredulous and don't understand that what they thought was consensual sex was actually sex wherein both or one (the woman) of them was acting with "diminished capacity."
After sobering-up and considering what has happened, the woman makes the charges because in her sober mind she had not intended what had happened to have happened. Under the effects of alcohol her judgment was impaired. This situation is sometimes referred to as one of "rescinded consent."
On our campus, it is the male's responsibility therefore to ensure that consent is obtained from a partner whose judgment is not impaired or clouded by alcohol or other drugs.
Ethyl alcohol's effects on the human cognitive, affective (emotional) and motor system is well documented. Alcohol shuts down the activity of the brain cortex and as such begins to deaden or remove your conscious control over both your motor system (you become uncoordinated) and your mental judgment and inhibitions. You would do things which you ordinarily would not do—usually to your later embarrassment, regret or sorrow—and you can not do things that you could do when you were sober.
Nevertheless, alcohol has traditionally been used as a "sexual lubricant"—to varying effect—many times dismal. Remember guys, a partner's diminished capacity to provide consent due to alcohol or drugs sets you up for valid charges of rape or sexual assault.
Sometimes alcohol is used deliberately to allow someone to engage in behaviors that ordinarily one would not allow themselves to do.
You may drink yourself into a stupor so that you really aren't that aware of the stimulus value of the situation or the person you are with (as in: "O.K., doc, you can take out the bullet now," or "He or she ain't that bad.").
Alcohol blurs your vision and your judgment. It is insulting to both partners when they realize upon awakening that except for the alcohol they would not have done what they had done. (Remember Brittany Spears and her one-day Las Vegas marriage?)
The impaired judgment also increases the health risks of sex because considerations of contraception and precautions against sexually transmitted infections are usually erased by the intoxication.
Just as DUI now gets you heavily fined and sometime jail time, maybe SUI (sex under the influence) should also be a cause of social sanction when the outcome is unfortunate.
Intoxicatingly yours,
Dr. P

New registered nurses would have to earn bachelor's degrees within 10 years to keep working in New York under a bill lawmakers are considering as part of a national push to raise educational standards for nurses, even as the health care industry faces staffing shortages.
The "BSN in 10" initiative backed by nursing associations and major health policy organizations aims to attack the problem of too few nurses trained to care for an aging population that includes hundreds of thousands of nurses expected to retire in the coming years. But some in the health care industry worry that increased education requirements could worsen the problem by discouraging entrants into the field.
Most registered nurses have two-year associate's degrees. No state currently requires a four-year degree for initial licensing or afterward.

Stopping In With Jessy Nelson
Motocross.com Interview
Story and photos by Shan Moore
Jessy Nelson turned a few heads at the Texas round of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championships, when the series rookie turned a 7-9 performance into seventh overall finish in the 250 class. The Troy Lee Designs-backed Honda rider got great starts all day and even led a lap of the opening moto.
Motocross.com sat down with Jessy at the Lakewood round this past weekend to see how the California is adapting to life in the Pros.
You seem to be adjusting to the Pro class just fine.
Yeah, I'm enjoying it. It's a whole new ball game, just getting used to how much different it is from the Amateurs. The competition is just so much gnarlier and the pace is so much faster. There's a lot of stuff to get used to and I'm just trying to prepare myself for years to come.
You had a really good race in Texas, you got good starts and you ran out front for a while.
Yeah, I did get good starts, I was happy with that. That helped me get a top-10, which I was happy with.
What's the biggest difference for you between the Amateurs and the Pros?
I would say the caliber of riders and how many really good ones there are. In Amateurs, there are only a few really fast guys, but out here there a lot of fast guys. Plus the longer motos are a big difference and the starts are key, just because you're not going against just a couple of good starters, you're going against 40 really good starters. It's just a lot different.
What do you like most about being a Pro?
I think the coolest thing is flying to the races and then getting out of there as early as possible and being home on Sunday. At an Amateur race, you're there for a week and a half or so. I like the fans, too. They come by and tell you they like watching you ride and all that.
Coming into the season, where did you expect to finish?
I just had a goal of top-10, and maybe top-15 every week. I didn't know what to expect and I didn't know what my speed would be coming in. It's just a whole new thing.
Are you fitting in with the Troy Lee guys okay?
Yeah, I feel like I fit in with the team pretty good, and I can't thank them enough, these guys are awesome. They help me out so much, and they're great.
Where do you live at now?
I live down by the team in Corona right now, but I'm from around the San Luis Obispo area, which is a cool place, I love it out there.
Are you looking forward to Supercross and is that something you enjoy riding?
Yeah, I'm looking forward to Supercross, for sure. That's more my style than motocross. I'll start riding Supercross soon to get ready for the new year.
How would you describe your style?
I try to be as smooth as I can, but I can be aggressive when I need to . I guess I just do my best under any conditions.
What kind of tracks do you like best?
I do the best on the rougher tracks, but it just depends on how I'm feeling at the time. This Lakewood track, I'm struggling with it. I've never been to this track before and it's kind of balling me up trying to figure it out, there are so many lines and it's so rutted. I just can't put together a good lap.

All he wants is the women, who can be traded for gold mine supplies...or used for whatever else he has in mind. But he didn't count on Preacher leading that train.
He Color Of Blood. Bedell's first mistake is leaving the First Mountain Man for dead. His second mistake is underestimating Preacher's strength...and cunning. And Preacher needs all he can get to lead a hundred and fifty helpless ladies out of captivity...through fifteen hundred miles of unforgiving territory filled with hostile Indians--and the deadliest threat of all: Bedell and his wild avengers...
