The Minnesota Vikings say Mike Zimmer is officially the ninth head coach in franchise history, according to a tweet from the team Wednesday night.
EXCLUSIVE one-on-one interview with Coach Zimmer: http://t.co/jgxgWIzFEw pic.twitter.com/zIKTIvmCrA
— Minnesota Vikings (@Vikings) January 16, 2014
The Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator and the Vikings have agreed to terms. He even recorded a message to Vikings fans on YouTube saying he is excited and can't wait to get to work.
"We are excited to welcome Mike as the new leader of the Minnesota Vikings," said Vikings Owner/Chairman Zygi Wilf. "He has a proven track record of success at every stop in the NFL and we look forward to him maintaining that consistency here in Minnesota."
NFL insider for ESPN Adam Schefter tweeted the news Wednesday morning, citing a league source.
Zimmer traveled to Minnesota on Monday and met with Vikings officials for a second interview on Tuesday. Zimmer was back in Minnesota Wednesday.
The Vikings fired former head coach Leslie Frazier one day after they finished a 5-10-1 season.
Zimmer will be introduced as the team's head coach on Friday in a press conference at Winter Park at 11 a.m.
Five of the seven reported candidates who interviewed for the vacancy had defensive backgrounds: Seattle defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, Cleveland defensive coordinator Ray Horton, Arizona defensive coordinator Todd Bowles, San Francisco defensive line coach Jim Tomsula and Zimmer. The other two were offensive coordinators: Seattle's Darrell Bevell and San Francisco's Greg Roman.

The energy at Thursday's opening ceremonies was definitely of "olympic" proportions. And these athletes are fired up and ready to compete this weekend at the Special Olympics at UW-Stevens Point.
But before they do, there needs to be a little celebrating.
Hundreds of athletes filled into the track for a big parade and pre-olympic party to kick off the summer games.
They're coming from all over the state to compete in track and field, swimming, soccer, and basketball...just to name a few events.
Law enforcement officers and volunteers from across the state were on hand to wish the athletes luck as they poured in.
Besides competeing and going for the gold, local athletes say the best part about coming to the games is meeting lots of new faces.
Steven Lenon
Special Olympics Athlete from Waupaca
"You meet a lot of people and it's a lot of fun to be here at state," says athlete Steven Lenon from Waupaca.
"You see a lot of friends and a lot of people, and the people who hold this here and put on all these great events," says athlete Steven Dorf from Wausau.
And all these people were definitely getting jiggy with it...including NewsChannel 7's own Jeff Thelen--one of the emcee's for the opening ceremonies. And the UW-Madison marching band was also on hand to pump up the crowd.
The events are going on through Saturday and they're free of charge, so everyone is welcome to cheer on the atheltes. And volunteers are still needed to help out tomorrow and saturday as well.
You can get a schedule and more information from the Special Olympic website at www.specialolympicswisconsin.org.

One of the most environmentally damaging aspects of traditional boating maintenance involves the periodic need to apply anti-fouling paint to your vessel's hull.
The first step in this process usually involves removing the old paint.
Various methods have been used to accomplish this task, and until recently they all had a very negative environmental impact.
Sanding and sandblasting are one of the most widely used techniques to remove old bottom paint. This technique almost always produces a toxic cloud that is difficult to keep from drifting into the nearby waterways, and of course the atmosphere.
Heat guns have been used with varying degrees of success, however, heating a substance like paint to the melting point produces all sorts of noxious fumes.
Applying chemical compounds designed to weaken and dissolve paint so it can later be scraped off is another frequently used means of removing old paint.
Needless to say, these traditional strippers were designed with very little thought to how they would affect the environment. The active ingredient in most of them is methylene chloride, a known carcinogen.
Using good old fashioned ingenuity, however, a group of folks have harnessed compounds crafted by Mother Nature to create a product that works as well or better than the toxic, synthetic versions.
Made in America by the good people at Franmar, SOY Gel™ Paint & Urethane Remover is soybean-based and does a nasty job with ease.
More importantly, it works without causing harm to the environment or those folks using it. hulls. It has no odor, and a very low evaporation rate.
Franmar SOY Gel™ Paint & Urethane Remover is a clean, green, and simple solution to remove Paint & Urethane. Coverage area – up to 200 sq. ft. per gallon horizontally and up to 150 sq. ft. per gallon vertically.

A Story of Invention and Innovation…
Soy's ability to replace highly toxic and expensive petrochemicals provides a safer, more economical world. Using natural products that do the job, safely and affordably fuels a change- for the better – to cleaning techniques and philosophies throughout the planet.
Today, many call this "Green."
Franmar has now gained worldwide acclaim for its effective, economical, and safe product lines—all developed to benefit workers and their environment.
Owners Frank and Marilyn are still very involved in the company. They work closely with their executive team to keep the deep-rooted values of hard work and service excellence as a company priority.
Throughout its 25-year history, Franmar has worked closely with the United Soybean Board, even occasionally receiving some USB research and development funds.
Farmers participate in the USB soybean checkoff, whereby they collectively invest a portion of their profits to fund soy research and promotion.
With assistance from USB checkoff funds for R&D, combined with Franmar's own R&D and marketing funds, Franmar has very successfully increased the market for products made from soy oil.

Grant will help Derry keep drivers focused on road
DERRY - Drivers who spend more time looking at their cellphones than the road might want to think twice the next time they drive through Derry.
The Town Council recently approved a $5,400 grant from the New Hampshire Safety Agency for the Derry Operation Safe Commute patrols.
"The Highway Safety Agency has informed the town that it will receive reimbursement of salary expenses plus roll-up costs for 72 hours of patrols to be conducted in accordance with the statewide effort for distracted driving patrols," said police Captain Vernon Thomas.
The funds can be used through Sept. 30, 2013.
"This will give us the opportunity to run traffic patrols once per month for three hours during the morning and afternoon commutes, and focus on aggressive and distracted driving," said Thomas.
The locations the patrols could take place include busy traffic areas such as Danforth Circle.
Patrols will be looking for drivers who fail to yield or do not come to a complete stop at stop signs. Thomas said the program has been successful and is now in its third year.
Before approving the funding, Town Councilor Joel Olbricht asked if these types of patrols can be done without committing overtime dollars.
"What (the safety agency) wants us to do is dedicate specific time during commuting hours, and we can't guarantee that because of the nature of our calls," said Thomas.
This is the second major grant the department has received for additional patrols this year.
In the spring, the highway safety agency provided a little over $22,000 in grant funds to assist with DWI, pedestrian, red light and speed enforcement patrols.
Those grants ran from May 1 through Sept. 15. The pedestrian enforcement patrols were primarily focused on making sure vehicles properly yield to pedestrians in crosswalks.

It's Saturday, November 22 and 10:19pm in Downtown New Orleans.
We are a nonprofit organization based in New Orleans, dedicated to the discovery, understanding and celebration of the culture of food and drink in the South. Please explore our website and discover what we are and what we have to offer you.
The Southern Food and Beverage Museum is a nonprofit living history organization dedicated to the discovery, understanding and celebration of the food, drink and the related culture of the South. We opened our doors on June 7, 2008 at the Riverwalk Marketplace in New Orleans, Louisiana. ?
Our first exhibit on the history and influence of New Orleans beverages opened in June, 2004 at a temporary location in New Orleans. Our goal in opening the temporary space was to give the public a taste of what we hoped to create as we built support and solicited donations for a permanent home. While based in New Orleans, the Museum examines and celebrates all the cultures that have come together through the centuries to create the South?s unique culinary heritage. It brings all races and ethnicities to the table to tell the tale, from the farmer and the homemaker to the line cook and the celebrity chef. And it is be fun, with tastings and other food-centered events that capture the essence of Southern foodways.
The Southern Food and Beverage Museum celebrates, interprets, investigates, entertains and preserves. A collaboration of many, the Museum allows food lovers of all stripes ? Southerners and non-Southerners, locals and tourists, academics and food industry insiders — to pull up their chairs and dig into the food and drink of the South. And although we are based in New Orleans, we are bringing our message about the entire South to the world through exhibits, collection of oral histories and videos, and other research.
We examine: ? The food and drink of the South in all its aspects; ? The many ethnicities ? African-American and Caribbean, French and German, etc. — that have combined to create unique Southern food and drink traditions; ? The farmers, fishermen, and hunters and gatherers who have produced the food; ? The processors, inventors, chefs and business people who run the restaurants and stock our stores with Southern products, and the home cooks and families who have passed down recipes and food traditions for generations.
We host special exhibits, demonstrations, lectures and tastings that showcase the food and drink of the South. We cooperate with the many fine local and regional museums, restaurants, theaters, academic institutions and artists to present richly-textured experiences in multiple venues.

We cannot have a world where one company can say, "I'm the only one who is allowed to have the solution for this common problem"
Apple won the patent case against Samsung and has been awarded more than one billion dollars in damages. You can read about the details over at MacRumors.
Apple's response: "We are grateful to the jury for their service and for investing the time to listen to our story, and we were thrilled to be able to finally tell it. The mountain of evidence presented during the trial showed that Samsung's copying went far deeper than even we knew. The lawsuits between Apple and Samsung were about much more than patents or money. They were about values. At Apple, we value originality and innovation and pour our lives into making the best products on earth. We make these products to delight our customers, not for our competitors to flagrantly copy. We applaud the court for finding Samsung's behavior willful and for sending a loud and clear message that stealing isn't right."
Samsung's response: "Today's verdict should not be viewed as a win for Apple, but as a loss for the American consumer. It will lead to fewer choices, less innovation, and potentially higher prices. It is unfortunate that patent law can be manipulated to give one company a monopoly over rectangles with rounded corners, or technology that is being improved every day by Samsung and other companies. Consumers have the right to choices, and they know what they are buying when they purchase Samsung products. This is not the final word in this case or in battles being waged in courts and tribunals around the world, some of which have already rejected many of Apple's claims. Samsung will continue to innovate and offer choices for the consumer."
I'm appalled by this. We all knew that Samsung was copying Apple, but that's not the point. What I'm appalled by is that it is now illegal for more than two people to come up with the same idea. The things that Apple has highlighted are not inventions. It's simply solutions to common problems.
Like the tap-to-zoom. That's not an invention. That's what we do when we use touch. You see something; you want to look at it; so you tap on it. Did Apple make it first? Maybe. But look at the behavior of a toddler when they see something. What do they do? Yep, they tap on it. It's not an invention. It's normal human behavior.
The idea that one company can own non-inventions is absolutely appalling to me.
Another example. Apple apparently holds the patent for click-to-call. Meaning that if you see a phone number, you can click on it, and it will call that number.
I'm sorry Apple, but I came up with that idea before you created the iPhone. A friend of mine and I were working on a custom browser, and we needed it to be able to access resources outside the browser itself. So we implemented a special protocol that, once called, would open the external app with the command supplied with it. This way, we could match any string using Regex, and assign the result to an action outside the browser.
And that is exactly how click-to-call works.
Why didn't I patent it? Well, because it's not an invention. All I did was to find a solution to a problem. If you had the same problem you would have found the same solution. I didn't invent anything. I only looked at what we had and said "hmmm ...we need to be able to click on that..."
The idea that one company can own a solution to a problem is absolutely insane.
It's the same with Amazon's one-click patent. That's not an invention either. That is a person noticing that more clicks lead to a lower conversion rate, so..."hmmm ...maybe if we make it one-click we would sell more?"
Amazon didn't invent anything. They just solved a common problem, but now, because of the idiotic patent system, they can claim to own that solution -- despite the fact that many people are coming up with the same solution to the same problem.
And here is another one: A company actually owns the patent for making a LED light turn green during a biometric login. Here is how that works. You use a biometric device, like a fingerprint reader. It scans your finger and tells the system if it can recognize you or not. Then:
if (scanner.status = Accepted) { led.color = green; } else { led.color = red; }
Someone actually owns the patent for this. Changing the color of a LED light upon login. That's not an invention. That's one line of code that everyone would make if they tried to solve that problem.
Apple is really good at finding solutions to problems. I wrote about this in"Apple Never Designed the iPad - They Undesigned it" ...but that doesn't mean they invented anything.
Samsung obviously copied Apple, we all know that, and I don't have a problem with Samsung getting slammed for not thinking for themselves ...they deserve it. The problem is that this case legitimizes the patent system. It proves to the world that Apple (and other companies) can own ideas and solutions that other people would come up with as well.
We cannot have a world where one company can say, "I'm the only one who is allowed to have the solution for this common problem" (like with Amazon one-click, or Apple tap-to-zoom).
If you ask 100 people to solve a problem, many of them are bound to come up with the same solution. Saying that only one of them is allowed to own it is just insane.
As Nilay Patel, from the Verge said "In the long term, we're sure to see lots of UI behaviors change across Android -- most companies have already moved away from the bounceback scrolling behavior protected by the Apple patent in this case, and we're sure to see tap-to-zoom and multitouch scrolling behavior affected on new devices as well. We're also sure to see new handsets adopt highly differentiated designs, as Apple has proven both its design patent and trade dress claims are strong enough to persuade a jury."
In other words. Only Apple is allowed to own the solution to the same problems that we have with every phone. Everyone else has to focus on building suboptimal workarounds. Like not being able to click on a phone number to call it ...or to make a phone with symmetrically rounded corners
One might think that this will be the beginning of the end for the US patent system, but it's not. Apple is a highly profitable US business, while Samsung is one of those foreign ones. In the minds every member of congress, the patent system is protecting US interest against those pesky outsiders.
And that's what the President and the politicians see as their most important job. To protect the interests of the US against the alien invaders. They have no reason to change the system.
Good job Apple. You fucked the world...
Head over to my G+ post to discuss and comment.
Update: Apple just announced the new iPod Nano ...which is a completely design ripoff of the Nokia Lumia. Remember, Apple said: "We applaud the court for finding Samsung's behavior willful and for sending a loud and clear message that stealing isn't right."

Coffee Table With Stool
So much of truly enjoying tiny space has to do with using the right ingredients. You simply cannot put a puzzle together without the correct piece fitting into place.
The same is true for a room that is space-challenged or awkward. If you think about it, a small room allows much fewer mistakes because each square foot is precious.
Often we already own certain things and are frankly reluctant to get rid of a perfectly good bed or sofa, despite that fact that the size might be all wrong for your particular use. This ought to concern you.
First, you must force yourself to look at your room as if it were the very first time that you were actually seeing it. This is an excellent exercise to perform for each of us, no matter how large our home might be. You may notice for the first time that the sofa is far too large for your room. Making an expenditure for a new loveseat instead of a 6.5-foot sofa that you already have might not be comfortable, but it is valuable to achieve better balance in the room.
A fresh look might also cause you to notice things like how you really could use a taller end table or a smaller coffee table to make the room feel less crowded. Maybe a floor lamp sitting next to a chair will change that spot into a better place to read. If you add an ottoman to that spot, suddenly it becomes a cozy corner.
Other elements of your home, such as dirty and beat-up baseboards, faded wall paper and torn draperies, might be detected as well!
Analysis of each part of your room without emotional attachment to pieces of furniture is an important aspect of the creation of a comfortable and functional space. For years, I have been hammering about dual-use and flexible furniture because you get more bang for your buck and you begin to coax more function out of one area.
The C Coffee Table with Stool from hayneedle.com is a perfect example of a slim cocktail table that incorporates in compact fashion auxiliary seating that rolls wherever you need it to go.
Whenever you can occupy floor space yet serve two purposes, you have achieved maximum use of your room. Folding, stacking, rolling, hanging and expanding are your key words to remember.
Keep your eyes open for such rare creatures because you can find great ideas in antique malls, mail-order catalogs and via online venders. I recently found a commercial-grade stainless steel work table that rolls where you need it then stores flat in CHEFS catalog. For about $200, the 30-inch-wide by 24-inch-deep by 38-inch-high heavy-duty rust- and moisture-resistant work surface with a towel rack collapses into just 3 inches wide! As any chef knows, a counter-starved kitchen can make prep tricky, and being able to expand counter space on demand is ideal and worth a small investment.
Be on the lookout for small-scale appliances that are also space-saving. Hammacher.com offers a paper shredder for under $50 that is only 4 inches wide by 13.5 inches deep by 17 inches high. About the size of a small briefcase, this device can easily tuck out of the way.
Instead of using a mix of extra chairs when you have more than two for dinner in a tiny dining area, maybe you can replace them with matching stacking or folding chairs that can be stored in the garage or basement or even safely covered on a porch or balcony. Matching an extra four to six chairs allows you to be unembarrassed when you entertain.

Josh Sallee - Prove
Artist: Josh Sallee
Producer: Home School
Album: Untitled (TBD)
Avg Rating: 4.1 ( 26 votes )
After two almost unanimously reader-acclaimed features, Josh Sallee hasn't got a whole lot to Prove where the Booth is concerned. Rather than slackening his standards in the face of deafening applause, however, the artist's determined to keep serving up the dope material we've have come to expect. Following May's Saratoga, the latest world premiere off Sallee's forthcoming full-length finds him departing from the aforementioned cut's self-confident vibes to depict one of his more conflicted moments. Flowing over Home School's 'production, a densely-layered synth arrangement propelled by clattering hi-hats (of both the normal and reversed varieties), the artist weighs the grueling demands of the hustle against his desire to get back together with an ex-girl. Does this introspective selection leave you craving more? Stay tuned—though the artist's next project still lacks a title and release date, we in the Booth will keep you supplied with the latest news and tunes.

Nikolai and the Others
Lincoln Center Theater
At the best party I've been to all year, I wasn't allowed to talk; also, everyone spoke Russian, and I don't. Well, ok, neither technically do the actors in Richard Nelson's play (through June 16), set at a weekend-long gathering at a Chekhovian countryhouse in Connecticut with many notable Soviet émigrés, most notably Igor Stravinsky (John Glover) and George Balanchine (a nimble Michael Cerveris)—they're working on their Orpheus ballet; it's 1948—plus many other actors, artists, musicians, conductors, composers, and their friends and family: husbands, wives, ex-husbands, ex-wives. In a neat trick from director David Cromer, a master of ensembles, the actors speak American-accented English when the characters are speaking Russian, and thickly accented English when they're speaking the tongue of their adopted country.
Nikolai and the Others is about the difficulties of expatriation: the conflict between past and present, tradition and assimilation. (Stravinsky gets picked on for The Rite of Spring's appearance in Fantasia.) There are practical problems, smoothed over by Nikolai Nabokov (Stephen Kunken), the composer-turned-bureaucrat to whom all the characters turn for help: with immigration, with missing papers, with the intensifying communist witch hunt. But aside from such indignities, the former royals get along well in the US; Nelson suggests the postwar era as a kind of second-coming of czarism, mostly in the way the wealthy Americans feel like they can buy the loyalty of these artists, subsidizing their work in exchange for their cultural ambassadorship—to show the rest of the world that the Soviets don't have a lock on the arts.
It's in these characters that art and politics collide. Nikolai unfolds at a casual and unhurried pace similar to a real weekend in Westport; as such, it lost a sizable chunk of its audience at intermission, mostly elderly people sneering at the lack of plot. Whatever: it's a delightful meeting of great artists and admirers of great art; it's as likely to stop a conversation so the characters can listen wistfully to a piece of music—or allow Balanchine's dancers to rehearse (in Balanchine's original choreography)—as it is to engage in dramatic conflict. Despite the political tension at play, Nikolai is at root about lovers of great beauty—"to see beauty or be a part of beauty is all we want," says one character—and so Nelson and Cromer allow the characters, and us, to revel in it. That is, they let us experience great art first-hand, to feel its beauty for ourselves, which drives home the play's own great art: the lovely, late-in-the-play discussions about what art is and what it means, about how frustrating it is not to create something but want to. If you care at all about art, you ought to adore this play.

Florida is recognized as the "Fishing Capital of the World" based on the number of freshwater and saltwater anglers, amount of time spent fishing, economic impact, diversity of recreational species, international fishing records set here and tourists who use our resources. The most recent National Survey of Fishing, Hunting and Wildlife-Related Recreation (U.S. Department of Interior, 2006) again ranked Florida No. 1 in in-state anglers (2.8 million vs. No. 2 California with 2.5 million), angler expenditures in state ($4.4 billion vs. No. 2 Texas with $3.4 billion), economic impact ($7.5 billion vs. No. 2 Texas with $6.1 billion), angler-supported jobs (75,068 vs. No. 2 Texas with 59,938), and state and local taxes generated by sport fishing ($440 million vs. No. 2 Texas with $392 million).
In addition, approximately 35 percent of all International Game Fish Association records in the U.S. come from Florida (Florida has 4,755 vs. No. 2 Alaska with 1,354, of 13,534 U.S. records, including line-classes). Florida even has more record catches than the next highest country, with 18.5 percent of all IGFA records worldwide. (Australia has 1,530 records, of 25,652 worldwide; Pers. Comm., Jack Vitek, IGFA World Records Department.)
Our vision is to also become the undisputed "Bass Fishing Capital of the World."
FWC Facts:Freshwater catfish have many external taste buds on their barbels, so they use their sense of taste more than their sight to find prey.

Installation prerequisites for NetBackup on VCS on UNIX/Linux
|Created: 2011-03-15
|Updated: 2011-03-16
|Article URL http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO44668
The following requirements must be met before you install and configure a NetBackup failover server:
Verify that VCS and NetBackup Enterprise Server 7.1 support your hardware. For a list of supported storage devices, visit the following Web site:
Verify that the supported version of VCS is correctly installed and configured on Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, or Linux. Follow the steps in the Veritas Cluster Server Installation Guide.
Verify that no VCS resource group and resource exist with the same name as the one you intend to use for NetBackup.
Make sure that the shared disk is configured and accessible to all cluster nodes where you want to install NetBackup. Also, verify that you can mount the disk.
Verify that you have an IP address (virtual IP) and a host name (virtual name) to assign to the NetBackup resource in VCS. Use these only for the NetBackup resource.
Also, ping the IP address and verify that the IP address is not plumbed.
For VCS-UNIX, IP address of the Nodes and Virtual Name must be of same type (IPv6 or IPv4).
With this release IPv6 is supported with NetBackup.
Make sure that each node in the cluster, where you want to install NetBackup, is RSH equivalent (On HP Service Guard the command is remsh). As the root user you must be able to perform a remote logon to each node in the cluster without entering a password. This configuration is only necessary for installation, upgrades, and configuration of the NetBackup server and any NetBackup database agents and options. After installation and configuration are complete RSH can be disabled.
For a clustered NetBackup master server, if the master server is the robotic control host, physically connect the robotic devices and tape devices to each node where you want to install NetBackup. Connect devices by SCSI or Fibre Channel. Use OS commands to verify that all the devices are connected properly. Refer to the Symantec NetBackup Device Configuration Guide.
Verify that you have the NetBackup Enterprise Server 7.1 installation program and a valid license key.
See About preinstallation checklist for a NetBackup failover server installation on VCS on Unix\Linux

Date: April 24, 2014
VANCOUVER, WA - The National Park Service at Fort Vancouver National Historic Site is pleased to announce National Junior Ranger Day, Saturday, April 26, from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm.
The program is free and takes place at Pearson Air Museum, an early center of Pacific Northwest aviation history managed by the National Park Service (NPS).
National Junior Ranger Day is a celebration across the nation that encourages families to come out to national parks and explore America's treasures. Throughout the nation, aspiring Junior Rangers will complete a series of activities and tasks to earn their own Junior Ranger Badge.
At Fort Vancouver NHS's Pearson Air Museum, activities for prospective Junior Rangers will include a basic aeronautics course, educational and historical videos, toy aircraft construction and flight, and perhaps a little insight into the typical day of a National Park Service Ranger. They will be led by NPS Park Guide Jim Patterson, a retired Navy Avionics Technician Chief Petty Officer.
The event is free of charge and open to all age groups and family members. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
The museum is located at 1115 E. Fifth Street in Vancouver, Washington.

Guardians of the Galaxy Shatters Box Office Record
by Mike Stanz
posted Aug 5 2014 5:00AM
It's been a pretty good year for the folks at Marvel Comics.
In the spring, their
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
did very well in theaters.
And this weekend, their new untested
Guardians of the Galaxy
set a new record for a film opening in August, taking in a staggering $94 million. That's $25 million better than the previous record-hoolder, 2007's
The Bourne Ultimatum
Not bad for something with a castful of unfamiliar characters. Including a small-man-sized talking weapon-wielding raccoon. Yeah, I have to admit – that's kind of cool.
It looks like these straight-off-the-comic-page movies aren't just for geeks anymore. Either that, or I have entered geekhood.

Press release from Business Wire
Travelers Expands Charitable Impact Through PGA TOUR Title Sponsorship

 100 percent of Travelers Championship net proceeds benefits charity

Friday, June 17, 2011
Travelers Expands Charitable Impact Through PGA TOUR Title Sponsorship15:17 EDT Friday, June 17, 2011 HARTFORD, Conn. (Business Wire) -- The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV) is proud to mark its fifth year as title sponsor of the Travelers Championship, Connecticut's PGA TOUR event, with expanded opportunities to generate funds for local charities. The tournament begins with opening ceremonies on Monday, June 20, at 9 a.m. ET at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Conn., featuring Connecticut Governor and Travelers Championship Honorary Chairman Dannel P. Malloy, Travelers Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer Andy Bessette, Tournament Director Nathan Grube and representatives from one of the charities that benefit from the tournament, The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. "Everyone at Travelers is proud to deliver a world-class PGA TOUR event that is good for the community, benefits charity and is good for our business," said Bessette. "Our focus this year has been to create new partnerships for the tournament to help raise awareness and funds for more charities, while continuing to deliver a tremendous experience for players and their families, caddies, sponsors and most importantly the fans." Since its inception in 1952, the tournament has generated more than $28 million dollars for charity, including $1.1 million in 2010 alone. This year, fans can use texting to support the more than 130 charities that benefit from the Travelers Championship. By texting "TCHAMP" to 50555, fans can donate $10 to help the tournament achieve its goal of generating more dollars for charity. Some of the world's best players are scheduled to participate in the PGA TOUR's only early summer stop in the Northeast. The player field for the 2011 Travelers Championship includes Jim Furyk, Nick Watney, Hunter Mahan, Anthony Kim, Padraig Harrington, Rickie Fowler, Ian Poulter, Geoff Ogilvy and defending champion Bubba Watson, among others. Numerous players who have already secured victories in 2011 on the PGA TOUR make up the Travelers Championship field. Some of those winners include David Toms, Lucas Glover, Brandt Snedecker and PGA TOUR Rookie of the Year candidate, Jhonattan Vegas. The 2011 event will feature many fan-favorite events including a continued focus on military appreciation for which the tournament will offer free admission to all active, reserve and retired military service members and their dependents throughout the week. Other fan experiences consist of Tuesday's Fan and Family Day, Wednesday's Travelers Celebrity Pro-Am with stars including Michael Bolton, who will play a concert Tuesday night with proceeds benefiting The Michael Bolton Charities, Joe Pesci, Luke Wilson, Chris Berman, Ray Allen and others; Women's Day, featuring Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough from MSNBC's "Morning Joe," golf clinics and other activities for women; and The REACH Concert Series on Wednesday featuring Eddie Money and Saturday featuring Huey Lewis and The News benefitting The REACH Foundation. A unique experience for fans and players is when players compete for a chance to win $10,000 from Travelers for their favorite charity during Tuesday's practice round. To win, the pros will vie for the first hole-in-one or closest to the pin on The Umbrella at 15 ½, a 40' floating green in the shape of the iconic Travelers red umbrella logo on the pond between Holes 15 and 16, complete with pin flag and cup. Fans will also enjoy a number of activities in the SUBWAY® Fan Zone, an entertainment area in the center of the course including the Travelers Chipping Challenge, which is modeled after The Umbrella at 15 ½. There, fans will get a chance to win a prize by taking a golf shot at a smaller version of the floating red umbrella green. For every hole-in-one throughout the week, Travelers will donate $100 to The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. "This event is a major economic driver for Connecticut and the tournament is constantly growing its relationships with partners in the business community," added Bessette. "The high level of competition continues to attract attention from a global audience and attendance remains high thanks to the many activities on-site and quality of our player field, which this year is one of the strongest we've had in years." In recognition of the official start of the 2011 Travelers Championship on June 20, the lights on Travelers Tower in Hartford will shine a bright red which will last throughout the week. These lights will match the color of the company's famous logo, the red umbrella, which is infused throughout the branding of the tournament. The competition rounds of the Travelers Championship will be played June 23 – 26, which will be broadcast live from 3 to 6 p.m. ET on Golf Channel on Thursday and Friday, and at the same time on CBS on Saturday and Sunday.

South Korea's National Pension Service (NPS) today signed a three-year partnership agreement with Credit Suisse that will cover a range of services including asset management, risk management, governance, technology transfer and training."This is the first time NPS has appointed a strategic partner in an effort to enhance its investment capabilities, with an emphasis on the diversification of asset allocation overseas," said the two companies in a joint statement. "The appointment follows an open, keenly contested tender and due-diligence process involving some of the world's most prestigious asset management companies."
David Blumer, Credit Suisse's chief executive for asset management, said: "This partnership represents another significant development for our asset management business in South Korea, as we continue to expand our footprint in the Asia-Pacific region, and it underscores our ability to partner with clients in providing them with comprehensive investment solutions."
In 2006, Credit Suisse launched an asset management joint venture, Woori Credit Suisse Asset Management, which ranks fourth in the country by assets under management.
Founded in 1988, NPS is the sole fiduciary for the administration of South Korea's national pension scheme and the management of the National Pension Fund of South Korea. NPS has more than $200 billion in assets under management, with a growth rate of around $20 billion a year.

An absolutely mammoth Madden interview [update 1]
IGN's got the goods, folks: this seven-page interview reveals more about Madden Wii than every past publication on the game combined. The interview covers the exact passing controls, special moves with the Wiimote, defensive manuevers, graphical capabilities, the kicking game...it's quite a read.
Of note is that the Wii version won't be "dumbed down" as the initial 360 version was; it contains every single mode and feature that long-time fans of the franchise have come to expect. It also contains some new features, such as the "two-on-two" minigame, which re-enacts the classic quarterback/receiver vs. rusher/safety playground game complete with "Mississippi" counting. It truly is a goldmine of information on the game, and the interviewee is extremely candid on most everything...except, strangely enough, online play. He absolutely refused to speak a word about it. Hmmmm.
[Update 1: Fixed a small typo.]

The leading food companies recognised the five Columbian Basin growers at an awards ceremony at the end of last year.
Growers Ed Schneider from Schneider Farms, Jack Gross, Marlin Hutterian Brethren, Keys Weyns from Weyns Farms, Berend Friehe from Friehe Farms and John McCloud, from Glen Lewis Farms were all recognised for their achievements.
Bret Nedrow, Simplot regional raw procurement manager at Moses Lake, said: "The selection of these five growers for this special recognition was based on raw potato grades delivered into the facilities during McDonald's production runs by using the JR Simplot Grower Matrix.
"The growers were selected based on their high quality raw product delivered and used to produce the consistently superior fries and hash browns that McDonald's is known for in their restaurants worldwide."
Simplot supply McDonald's in Japan with French fries and hash browns made from potatoes grown in the Columbian Basin.
Japan is the largest consumer of McDonald's produce, outside the US, with nearly 4,000 restaurants.

M.i - Church West Texas
Artist: M.i
Featuring: Blu
Producer: Tyler Keyes
Album: Pushing Keyes
Avg Rating: 4.1 ( 8 votes )
Last we heard from M.i, on the inaugural leak off his forthcoming mixtape, he was looking forward to his Imminent takeover of the game, with all the money, power and fame that entails. Much as the artist plans on enjoying his big break, worldly success won't mean anything to the Austin representative without spiritual peace. On project lead single Church West Texas, the artist spits candidly about his relationship with the Man Upstairs, backed by project collaborator Tyler Keyes' quietly intense sample work. Fresh off the release of his York LP, Cali rapper/producer Blu speaks on his own faith in a tightly-wound middle verse. Pushing Keyes is scheduled for digital release May 16. Watch for the set's next single, the Chamillionaire-assisted Nothing You Can Do, to hit the 'net Monday, April 15.
