Round 3: Portuguese MotoGP™ – Qualifying Practice
Casey Stoner continued Repsol Honda's dominance at Estoril this weekend as the reigning MotoGP™ champion snatched pole position from teammate Dani Pedrosa by just 0.013 seconds in a tightly contested qualifying session that saw the top eleven riders split by just one second.

Chris Van der Drift is the second "king" of the Marrakech Auto GP weekend, after winning today's race 2 with a stunning performance.
In a season that already saw 5 different winners in 6 rounds, the Kiwi driver bagged the first success for him and MP Motorsport thanks to both a masterful drive and a very good job by his pit-wall staff.

Sergey Sirotkin will start from pole position in tomorrow's Race 1 on the Marrakech Moulay El Hassan circuit.
The Russian driver of Euronova Racing was quickest in a session that was stopped two times in the last 10 minutes, spoiling the plans of teams and drivers: the red flag was waved a first time after Yann Cunha stopped on track for a technical issue with 10 minutes to go, and again when also Giacomo Ricci's car came to a halt with just 5 minutes to the end of the session.
Apr 13
Championship leader Adrian Quaife-Hobbs was quickest at the end of the second Auto GP practice on the Moulay El Hassan circuit in Marrakech.
The brit of SuperNova topped the sheets with a 1'29"336 that was nearly 3 tenths better than his fastest rival. Even more impressively, Quaife-Hobbs managed to keep the lead despite missing half of the session due to a spin and a consequent engine stall that forced the marshals to push his car off the track.
Apr 13
Sergio Campana topped the timesheets in the first Free Practice session on the Moulay El Hassan circuit in Marrakech.
The reigning Italian F3 Champion posted the fastest lap right in the last minutes of a session that was made particularly tricky by a brief rain shower that dampened the track with just 40 minutes to the green light.

Round 16: Australian GP – Race
Casey Stoner was crowned the 2011 MotoGP World Champion in Australia today with a characteristically dominant victory at Phillip Island, on his birthday, and marking a number of milestones including his second world crown.
Oct 15
Round 16: Australian GP – Qualifying
Casey Stoner continued his dominant form at Phillip Island today with his fourth consecutive pole position at his home Grand Prix, prompting adoring fans to rename the venue 'Casey's Island'. His best lap came using the soft front slick and the softer option rear.
Oct 14
Round 16: Australian GP – Free Practice One & Two
Casey Stoner got his home Grand Prix off to a great start today, heading the timesheets in both free practice sessions aboard his Repsol Honda machine. As the conditions changed between the two sessions, Stoner's best lap actually came in the morning's session, as it did for half of the riders in the top ten, and was just 0.4seconds off the lap record.
Sep 17
Sep 16
Round 14: Aragon GP – Free Practice One
Dani Pedrosa led the way in the morning's 45-minute free practice session at Motorland Aragon, setting his best lap on his last of the session to go almost half a second clear of Jorge Lorenzo who was second fastest. Third quickest this morning was last year's Aragon GP winner and championship leader Casey Stoner.
Sep 04
Round 13: San Marino GP – Race
Jorge Lorenzo resisted pressure from pole-sitter Casey Stoner in the early stages of today's 28-lap race to take a dominant victory and set a new lap record. Dani Pedrosa chased down Stoner and passed him on lap 23 to finish second, meaning that Stoner's championship lead over Lorenzo is now down to 35 points leaving the title wide open for the remaining five races of the season.
Sep 03
Round 13: San Marino GP – Qualifying
Casey Stoner secured his eighth pole position of the season in Misano today, and in doing so set a new circuit pole position record. The old record was set by the Australian in 2008 in the era of tyre competition on Bridgestone's high-grip qualifying tyres, but now in the Official Tyre Supplier era there are no qualifying tyres meaning that Stoner's new record was set on race rubber.

I've heard that the Telltale-developed versions of Episode 1 (i.e. all except the iPod version) have bugs, some of which can render the game unwinnable. Have these been patched yet? From what I've heard, Telltale has a fairly bad track record when it comes to patching bugs.
Speaking of which, has anyone found any game-breaking bugs in Episode 2 yet?

Intrusion Inc. decides to keep headquarters in Richardson

Richardson-based Intrusion Inc., a networking monitoring and analytics software firm, has decided to keep its corporate offices in Richardson.
The company has signed a lease for 27,777 square feet of office space at 1101 Arapaho Road. Kent Smith and Tom Lynn of NAI Robert Lynn represented Intrusion in the deal. Rick Rensi at CBRE represented the landlord, Equity Office.
This was a significant lease in the Richardson Telecom market, and negotiated after a lengthy market study looking at Intrusion's needs, said Smith, executive vice president of NAI Robert Lynn's office division.
Those needs included proximity to Dallas and nearby suburbs Allen and Plano, as well as the availability of recruiting from the University of Texas at Dallas, he said.
Candace covers commercial and residential real estate and sports business.

Series or Parallel?
Emerging electricians extend mental models of light bulbs and resistors in series and or in parallel circuits to include the connection of photovoltaic cells in arrays. They investigate open circuits, using a DC voltmeter, a light source, and photovoltaic cells.
9th - 12th Science
Fact Families Lessons
Have you ever tried using arrays to help you teach the fact families that go with multiplication and division? If not, you should read this article! Some excellent and easy-to-implement ideas are presented, along with some good lessons which are linked at the bottom of the page.
2nd - 4th Math
Solve Multiplication Problems: Using Commutative Property
Understanding the commutative property of multiplication is a big idea in the development of fluency with multiplication. The sixth video in the series clearly explains this fundamental property with multiple examples and visual models. Extend the lesson by asking children to use manipulatives or draw pictures to represent the two ways of showing different multiplication problems.
5 mins 2nd - 4th Math CCSS: Designed
Multiplication of Whole Numbers
Break up multiplication into more easily conceptualized math operations. Scholars first examine an array of apples and write a multiplication sentence to represent it. Then, they determine which of four sets of addends is equivalent to a given multiplication equation.
3rd - 5th Math
Math Match Up!
Help learners solve problems using multiplication and repeated addition. Using counters, learners will be paired up to solve problems. They will go through a series of questions and show models with the counters for the solution. Then they will create a number sentence and solve.
2nd - 3rd Math
Chocolate Bar Math
How many ways can you use a chocolate bar to engage mathematical reasoning? This slideshow gives you seven to choose from. Part/whole, fractions, counting, and using chocolate bars as arrays are only a few. Note: This is a presentation that has ideas for the teacher to use with the class but could also be used with the class.
1st - 4th Math
Multiplication of Whole Numbers
Rather than simply have your scholars memorize multiplication facts, be sure they understand the process behind each equation. There are four arrays of objects here; mathematicians write a multiplication sentence for each. Next, they examine six multiplication equations (all single-digit) and identify which set of addends is an equivalent equation.
3rd - 5th Math
Hurray for Arrays and Multiplication
Third graders begin learning about multiplication using arrays. In this multiplication with arrays lesson, 3rd graders interact with tiles on the overhead as they follow the teacher in making arrays. They write multiplication sentences based on the arrays and complete an assessment by show arrays on geoboards.

Hi Funnyhat, Oops! I knew that it was Mont Royal and not Mont Real! Dang. I can't believe I made that mistake. I'll go back and change it. Mona-Lynn 02:43, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
RE: Comerica smaller size[edit]
Your assessment of the "artificial demand" is partially true. Writers have also commented on the move to smaller parks as being due to changing demographics. To be more blunt about it, baseball is not as "important" as it once was, compared with certain other sports. When the NFL started, they rented from the baseball teams. By the 1960s, the baseball teams were sharing with the NFL in facilities that were decidedly more conducive to football. Now they are going their separate ways, the NFL stadiums being larger, and the MLB parks being smaller. The "artificial demand" strategy seems to work, as long as the product is attractive. I wonder how small they would have to make Milwaukee's Miller Park so that demand would exceed supply?
Wahkeenah 06:34, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
That's the dilemma, the obstructed views. If you look at the old parks, even the original Yankee Stadium, and very observable in Wrigley Field also, you'll see that the lower deck was wide and the upper deck was narrow. That meant a lot of posts in the lower deck. What they have done, in essence, is to swap the lower and upper decks... which is not a good thing, for reasons such as the ones you cite. The real dilemma is that in baseball, there are only so many good seats, and the others are... well, not so good. Wahkeenah 02:46, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Just curious[edit]
Regarding your edit at France, I was wondering why an alphabetical listing of countries bordering France is superior to a clockwise listing, starting from Belgium in the north. The alphabetic listing actually removes useful information that is conveyed by the geographical ordering.
Your change regarding the period of French dominance ("since the latter half of the 17th century") was less questionable, given that no justification was actually given for referring to that specific century. Nevertheless, pinpointing the point at which France became a predominant power is interesting and useful information, whereas "for centuries" is vague to the point of meaninglessness.

Reign of Terror[edit]
I've changed a couple of your edits to this page-- the location in Paris where Marat is interred is, in fact, the Panthéon (with an accent). I also do feel that it would be more correct to speak in terms of the end of the Terror, as the Reign of Terror is more typically referred to in brief by this name. I don't think I've ever seen it abbreviated to "the Reign;" however, if you have a compelling reason for preferring this, I'm more than happy to consider it. Thanks! -- Zhuravlei (talk) 16:39, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
Can you help out?[edit]
I see you're a Wolverine and still an active editor. Wikipedia:WikiProject_Resource_Exchange/Resource_Request#Pauly-Wissowa: RE, Vol. VII A 2 needs someone with access to the library there to do a lookup. It'd be good to get this one off the books.LeadSongDog come howl! 16:57, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

The recent capture of Sanaa by Zaidi fighters was celebrated in the Iranian media as a "victory for the revolutionaries".

|With season winding down, Wildcats, Cardinal need victories
|Written by Admin
|Thursday, 18 October 2007 12:54
They're tied for seventh in the Pac-10, but both flashed their potential against Southern California. The Cardinal stunned then-No. 2 USC on Oct. 6, and one week later the Wildcats led the Trojans heading into the fourth quarter.
Now they both need a victory to keep their flickering bowl hopes alive. The Wildcats (2-5, 1-3 Pac-10) need at least a 4-1 finish to qualify for a bowl berth, and even that might not be enough. Stanford (2-4, 1-3) needs to win four of its last six to have a shot.
It figures to add a little drama when they meet on Saturday afternoon in Arizona Stadium.
``We have nothing to lose,'' Arizona quarterback Willie Tuitama said. ``That is exactly how it is. We are playing with our backs to the wall. That is the bottom line.''
There is one distinct difference between the teams. The Wildcats came into this year brimming with optimism that they would end the Pac-10's longest bowl drought at eight seasons. The Cardinal were merely hoping to achieve respectability after a 1-11 season that ended with the firing of coach Walt Harris.
Although Stanford absorbed humiliating losses to UCLA (45-17) and Arizona State (41-3), the Cardinal have improved under new coach Jim Harbaugh, in his first season as a major-college head coach.
``I think they have done an unbelievable job,'' Arizona coach Mike Stoops said. ``When you look at the grand scheme of things, they are so different (from last year). You have seen Jim's influence.''
Arizona, meanwhile, needs a fast finish to earn a bowl berth in Stoops' fourth season.
Early in the year, Arizona's struggles could be blamed on the transition to a spread offense, the brainchild of new offensive coordinator Sonny Dykes. The Wildcats thought their troubled attack had turned a corner in a 48-20 victory over Washington State on Sept. 29. But they've mustered only 29 points the last two weeks, both losses.
Against USC, the Wildcats gained only 13 first downs and 255 yards, wasting a superb effort by their defense, which limited the Trojans to 19 first downs and 276 yards.
Tuitama is the Pac-10's No. 2 passer, averaging 293.6 yards per game. But the running game has been nonexistent for most of the season. The Wildcats average a Pac-10-low 76.9 yards per game on the ground, and they gained only 22 yards in 16 carries at USC.
``They throw the ball all over the place,'' Harbaugh said. ``I like their scheme and I like their quarterback.''
The Cardinal, by contrast, have struggled on defense. Stanford gave up seven plays of 20 or more yards in a 38-36 home loss to Texas Christian last week.
``The big plays are something that have haunted us this year, giving up the big play,'' Harbaugh said. ``Missed tackles are the other things that we are working very hard on to shore up.
``Those two things are hurting our defense right now,'' Harbaugh said.
Stanford's defensive woes should present an opportunity for the Wildcats. The Cardinal are the weakest remaining opponent on Arizona's schedule, which includes trips to Washington and Arizona State and home games against UCLA and Oregon.
``We have to go 5-0 in the next five games,'' offensive tackle Eben Britton said. ``That's our goal, and make a bowl game and squeeze as much juice out of this as we can.''

What is commodities transaction tax?
January 18, 2013
ET Bureau
Heads of India's five commodity futures exchanges have been vehemently opposing the idea of a transaction tax on commodity trades similar to that on stock and equity derivatives trades. They say a commodity transaction tax will sound the death knell for the organised commodity futures market as the cost of trading will shoot up eight-fold from around 2 per lakh now. Their arguments followed comments by a leading stock exchange and a few bankers, the latter during pre-budget talks with Finance...

Scrap financial transaction taxes
January 21, 2013
ET Bureau
Commodity exchange chiefs are scurrying from newspaper office to industry chamber to North Block babus to stave off what they see as a cynical move to finish off their business: imposition of a transaction tax on commodity futures. Considering that the factors that persuaded the government to hold off and eventually scrap a budget proposal to levy a tax on commodity futures transactions all remain unchanged, it is unclear how real this fear is of such a tax being brought to bear on just one set of hedging...
Transaction Tax to pull down markets: Crisil

NEW DELHI: The proposed Transaction Tax should be different for delivery and non-delivery based purchase of shares and bonds, instead of the flat rate of 0.15 per cent for all securities, Crisil said on Tuesday. "The proposed Transaction Tax of 0.15 per cent will have a negative impact on traders. There should be a differential rate for delivery and non-delivery-based transactions," Crisil chief economist Subir Gokarn said at a post-budget meeting. The proposal comes...

Off-market deals may attract transaction tax
February 28, 2006
MUMBAI: FM P Chidambaram is likely to extend the securities transaction tax (STT) to off-market deals. While the minister is likely to keep the rate of the tax unchanged, the new measure will snare a large number of trades that are not routed through stock exchanges. Usually, many investors who get allotment of equity in public issues sell them even before the stock is listed on the exchanges. While such a move may act as a slight damper for the equity market, what...

I once bought a set of sheets from Overstock that were heavy, luxurious, smooth, and which got softer with each wash. I have been trying to duplicate that purchase for years! These sheets are not of that quality�while somewhat soft, they are a little scratchy and are fairly lightweight. I ordered the dusty blue color, which is really a blue-gray, so beware. We'll see how they wash over time. I hope they soften up without pilling.
I'm so pleased with this purchase, the sheets were much better quality than I was expecting. Super soft and not too shiny, just a little hint of a sateen sheen. Great quality from City Scene again, I'm always happy with their products.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Kirk Hinrich scored 22 points, Marco Belinelli added 15 points, and the Chicago Bulls pulled away down the stretch to beat the struggling Los Angeles Lakers 95-83 on Monday night. Belinelli came up big in the closing minutes, scoring eight points during an 18-4 run that broke a 75-75 tie and sent the Lakers to their ninth loss in 11 games. He started it by hitting two free throws after getting fouled by Dwight Howard with 6:54 left in the game and wrapped two 3-pointers around a layup by Los Angeles' Earl Clark, making it 89-79 with 2:27 remaining. The Lakers have now dropped six straight on the road, and this one came after coach Mike D'Antoni shook up the lineup. He moved forward Pau Gasol to a reserve role and replaced him with Clark, but the slide continued on a night when Kobe Bryant and Howard were mostly nonfactors. Hinrich hit 9 of 11 shots and nailed three 3-pointers. Belinelli and Nate Robinson (11 points) also hit three, and the Bulls were 9 of 17 overall from...

It was a big smash hit when Mike Kenney adapted E Nesbit's much-loved children's book 'The Railway Children' and Damian Cruden staged it actually on a platform at Waterloo in 2011. Now it returns, but not to Waterloo. Instead it's arriving at a specially built 1,000 seater theatre built behind King's Cross station. Railway tracks and platforms will be created specially for the production, which tells of a group of children who move from London to a cottage in the country with their mother after their father is mysteriously taken away.

Singin' In The Rain
It's one of the most feel-good movies of all time so this revival of the musical version should be a good fuzzy Christmas treat. John Plews directs the piece, which has classics such as 'Good Morning' and 'Make 'Em Laugh'.

Slava's Snowshow
- Rated as: 4/5
Some people are wary of Christmas for good reason. Others – and this camp could really do us all a favour by giving themselves a stern talking to – bemoan things like 'the fuss' and 'those pesky pine needles that fall off the tree'. Well, even these embattled souls – as well as those more traditionally ga-ga for festive frippery – would find it difficult to withstand the full-bore Beckettian lunacy of 'Slava's Snow Show'.

The Snowman
- Rated as: 3/5
Birmingham Repertory Theatre's stage show for all the family based on Raymond Briggs's modern classic. A delight for kids, using dance, music and storytelling to summon up the feeling of walking in the air, with choreography by Robert North and featuring a full live orchestra.

The Snow Queen
A new version of Hans Christian Anderson's classic fairy tale about a scary snow queen who kidnaps a boy called Kai. His best friend Gerda heads out to try to rescue him. The show has new songs for the whole family and the piece is penned by comedy writer Georgia Pritchett who has written for TV shows including 'Miranda', 'The Thick of It' and 'Have I Got News For You?' so this should have more than a smidgen of laughter about it.

Treasure Island
The National Theatre's annual family friendly Christmas epic this year isn't exactly unheard of. Robert Louis Stevenson's classic 'Treasure Island' is one of the most dramatised novels ever. Thankfully, the big bods at the National have commissioned Bryony Lavery to adapt the piece. Lavery is a versatile, surprising writer and regular collaborator with experimental physical theatre company Frantic Assembly, so chances are this will be a 'Treasure Island' unlike any you've seen before.

The Wintershall Nativity
- Free
Looking for a genuine Christmas experience? This full scale enactment of the birth of Jesus should do the trick. A specially composed score will accompany this performance, which stars a cast of more than 50, real donkeys and a flock of sheep. The action begins in the piazza outside BBC Broadcasting House where it can be watched for free, but part two will take place inside All Souls Church so you'll need to book tickets in advance to find out how it ends. The performance will also take place on The Wintershall Estate in Surrey on Dec 18, 19, 20 and 21.

DEFINITION of 'MXN (Mexican Peso)'
The currency abbreviation for the Mexican peso (MXN), the currency for Mexico. The Mexican peso is made up of 100 centavos and is often presented with the symbol $ or Mex$. The name peso comes from the Mexican word "pesos", which means "weights", and refers to gold or silver weights.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'MXN (Mexican Peso)'
Following a period of hyperinflation and currency devaluation in the 1980s that occurred after Mexico defaulted on it external debt as a result of the 1970s oil crisis, the government of Mexico created a new peso, or "nuevo peso", to replace the original peso in 1993. The new peso replaced the old peso at a rate of 1:1000.

Canibus had kind of a tough break. One minute he was the most critically lauded emcee in the Tri-State area, the next he found himself blackballed by the very industry that jocked him. Strangely enough, he was even used as a punchline in Benzino's (terrible) Eminem dis track some years back saying "Five shades darker motherfucker you'd be Canibus". It was as if Benzino was sharing some sentiment of the industry that it was wack to be nice on the mic. (It's not).
In retrospect, we can see clearly that an even then irrelevant LL helped turn the industry against him through the power of Def Jam, but Canibus made some mistakes along the way. His debut album was a let down, he had some behavioral issues with some of the hip-hop editorial press, and he pointlessly picked a battle with Eminem for attention during a low point of his career. Since then, he has struggled to reaffirm his place in the industry as one of the nastiest emcees to ever touch a mic, with C of Tranquility being the latest attempt.
There are moments on this LP where 'Bus gets it exactly right. The opening track, "Capt. Cold Crush" for instance, finds him over rugged and raw Scram Jones production, bringing back that old feeling we all used to get when it was Canibus' turn. The same can be said for "Salute", despite it's missing M.O.P. hook, which finds him spraying lyrical bullets in every direction, as well as the Jake One helmed "C Scrolls", which sounds like a 2010 sequel to "How We Roll". And Canibus over a Premier track? It finally happens on "Golden Terra Of Rap".
Unfortunately, this self-proclaimed "man of science, not rap" attempts to get super-intelligent on tracks like "Merchant of Metaphors", the metaphysically challenged "Good Equals Evil", and the heavy-handed "Lunar Deluge" that later which evokes bad memories of ICP's "Miracles".
C of Tranquility is one of his better LP's in recent memory, thanks to a team of producers that help get the best out of him. His fatal flaw? Canibus obviously does not want to be pigeonholed as a one-dimensional battle rapper, at the same time, on his "deeper" tracks, he instead comes off as a rambling fringe science professor. There has to be a way for him to make great music that doesn't revolve around his super-verses, but perhaps he just hasn't found it yet. Until then, we'll take those entirely rhyming sentences over raw, east coast production any day of the week.

this is best record since R.T.J, easily.

Cruden escapes knee surgery
ESPNscrum Staff
October 29, 2011
Aaron Cruden has been given an eight-week recovery prognosis © Getty Images
All Blacks fly-half Aaron Cruden should be fit to start the new Super Rugby season with the Chiefs after it was confirmed that he would not require surgery on his injured knee.
The 22-year-old hyper-extended his right knee in the 34th minute of the All Blacks' 8-7 triumph over France in the Rugby World Cup Final at Eden Park last weekend.
Although he could miss much of the Chiefs pre-season preparations, Cruden should have regained full fitness in time for the Chiefs' opening Super Rugby fixture against the Highlanders in Hamilton on February 25.
"Aaron saw a specialist in Auckland today who confirmed that he won't require surgery," All Blacks doctor Deb Robinson said. "He will have to wear a knee brace for the next three to four weeks before he gradually returns to training over the following month, and is expected to make a full recovery."
New Chiefs coach Dave Rennie added: "It will be about eight to nine weeks before he's back to full health, so that's pretty good."
