Fedora 21 Likely Switching To Hawkey Package Management
Published on 18 December 2013 12:14 AM EST

Fedora 20 out the door
, the latest feature to talk about for
Fedora 21
is that they will be switching over to the Hawkey package management library.
Hawkey is a new package management library built atop the libsolv library and its work within the Fedora world dates back to Fedora 18.
Hawkey handles querying and resolving of RPM dependencies and information via RPMDB and Yum repositories. The Hawkey API tries to be better than the Yum API while delivering greater performance.
Hawkey is also critical to the next-generation
DNF package manager
over Yum. Most recently, a Hawkey back-end for PackageKit has been under development.
Richard Hughes has been workig on a Hawkey back-end for Fedora 20 for the past month and a half and he nailed a lot of bugs in Hawkey, librepo, and libsolv. With the improved packages, Hughes
noted on his blog
, "I am now happy we can switch Fedora 21 to using hawkey by default, and reap the rewards of all the hard work put in by so many people over the last few months. I for one am really happy about the speed boost brought to all the applications using PackageKit." Thanks to Phoronix reader Eric Griffith for pointing out this post.
Fedora 21 should also be exciting for
greater OpenCL support
, it
modernizes the GPU driver requirements
, and will feature much more mature Wayland support than what's found right now in Fedora 20 as an early tech preview.

NEW ORLEANS - JANUARY 16: Quarterback Matt Leinart #7 of the Arizona Cardinals gestures as he awaits the snap against the New Orleans Saints during the NFC Divisional Playoff Game at Louisana Superdome on January 16, 2010 in New Orleans, Louisiana. (Photo by Chris Graythen/Getty Images)
Matt Leinart just can't catch a break. After sitting on the bench for two years, the former Heisman Trophy winner out of USC was finally starting a game in the NFL again. However, in the first half of the game between the Houston Texans and the Jacksonville Jaguars, Matt Leinart hurt his shoulder and was ruled out. Matt Leinart got the start due to Matt Schaub injury his foot and being placed on injured reserve. After Matt Leinart got injured, he was replaced by T.J Yates — a 24-year-old out of North Carolina who has never thrown an NFL pass. While the extent of Matt Leinart's shoulder injury isn't yet known, it didn't look good. There's a real chance that he too could be out for the season. If that's the case, the Texans will have to search around for a starting quarterback for a team that appears to be headed to the playoffs.

"I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music," Albert Einstein once said. And many of our Bollywood stars, who wake up to a tune and sleep to one, would agree.
Music is the essential stressbuster for many Bollywood stars, trying to cope with erratic shooting schedules, hectic travel and long hours under the arclights, not to mention the unrelenting paparazzi gaze.
The tastes are eclectic. If Amitabh Bachchan's tastes range from classical to the more contemporary Coke Studio, son Abhishek likes Jimi Hendrix and Bob Dylan; Bipasha Basu loves it all, soft rock and Sufi both; Priyanka Chopra loves old Hindi film music as does Sonu Sood; and Shahid Kapoor favours progressive house music.
And it stays with them - in the gym, in the car or during a make-up session.
As Bipasha put it, "music has to be a part of an actor's life because it's too taxing a profession".
"If I am stressed, I tell my manager, 'Give me 30 minutes. I'll just go and work out and listen to my favourite music.' When I take a massage and listen to some soothing music, I get very energetic," says Bipasha.
"From the time I wake up, music stays with me. My alarm is always my favourite song, and then right from the time I start brushing my teeth, I hear all kinds of music according to my mood.
"My driver, my spot boys get fed up of my music. Right from the vanity van to my car to my house to my terrace, music follows me," said the 33-year-old, who especially loves soft rock, Irish bands and Sufi songs.
At 69, veteran star Amitabh enjoys listening to classical and instrumental music.
He often mentions on his blog his love for traditional music and how he likes tuning into evergreen melodies before he slips into bed. But he also enjoys new age, fusion music from Pakistan's Coke Studio during his make-up sessions.
Son Abhishek listens to international musicians like Tom Petty, Cat Stevens, Bob Dylan, Jimmy Hendrix and David Guetta while driving - and he listens to it all at top volume.
Former beauty queen Neha Dhupia admits music either makes or breaks her mood each day.
"Music defines my day. The first song that I listen to at the start of the day sets the mood for me. It defines my night and helps me decide if I want to go out," said Neha, who listens to a lot of rock bands, contemporary pop as much as Bollywood music and old classics.
Bollywood's new kid on the block Parineeti Chopra is a trained singer like her cousin Priyanka.
"Music is my stressbuster. I enjoy listening to music, but there is no specific kind of music that makes my mood. I listen to all kinds of music. I am a trained singer; so music certainly keeps me going," said Parineeti.
Priyanka, who recently returned from the US after working on her debut music album, loves tuning into house, hip-hop and pop music. She gets her dose of Bollywood music as well and wakes up many mornings to evergreen numbers by Mohammed Rafi, Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle.
Priyanka's rumoured former beau and now her "Teri Meri Kahaani" co-star Shahid Kapoor is as much a music fanatic.
"Music is a part of my life... I can't do without that. Music keeps us all going," says Shahid, who prefers progressive house music.
Actor Sonu Sood is reserved in his choice.
"I am a great fan of R.D. Burman; so I still listen to his songs; I love the melodies he gave in films like 'Ijaazat', 'Masoom' and 'Yaadon Ki Baraat'," he said. - IANS

Last Thursday we introduced a new weekly segment here at iHipHop in which we post 25 old school hip-hop photos as part of the internet phenomena known as Throwback Thursday. And for our second installment of #ThrowbackThursday we again have scoured the deepest, darkest depths of the 'net to bring you more vintage rap photos you've probably never seen before. This week we've got some goodies, for sure. Mark Wahlberg playing ball with Will Smith, Wesley Snipes, OutKast, Mya, and L.A. Reid circa 1996, Bun B and Pimp C in high school, and Prodigy of Mobb Deep like you've never seen him! Peep the photos after the jump. Enjoy!
Queens emcee Julian Stephen drops off the visuals for his latest single, "Sophisticated Thoughts", which finds the rapper chilling around local spots amid a distinctive 90s flare. Produced by Chicago's brandUn DeShay, whose recent work includes Mac Miller, Chance The Rapper, Danny Brown, and Casey Veggies, the beat is cheerful and optimistic which perfectly compliments the visuals. Peep the video for Julian Stephen's "Sophisticated Thoughts" after the jump.
Boi-1da, The Maven Boys and Just Blaze form an all-star production team for "Psychopath Killer", a track off the upcoming Shady XV compilation out on Monday (November 24th). On "Psychopath Killer" Slaughterhouse and Yelawolf are joined by Eminem. Needless to say everyone who contributes a verse delivers here. Listen after the jump!
Crooked I drops a gem in "Freestlin' Under Oath", the first official offering from his forthcoming new mixtape, Sex, Money and Hip-Hop, which is set to drop on December 16th. Listen after the jump.
With the release and success of their second Run the Jewels album, Killer Mike and El-P continue having fun with the visuals for their single "Blockbuster Night Pt. 1″ which depicts the two antiheroes as a pair of naughty EMTs. The two spend most of their time speeding, getting high, and being all around lazy and carefree. Watch the video for "Blockbuster Night Pt. 1″ after the jump.
Last year footage surfaced of Freddie Gibbs and Mike Dean working "in the lab" and ever since then very little additional information has been given regarding that session. Now Gangsta Gibbs has shared a new track entitled "Sellin' Dope" which gives artist credit to Mike Dean. Our guess is Mike Dean, who is a hip-hop producer and certainly no rapper (best known for working with Kanye West), produced the cut. The track is absolutely menacing, both in production and in overall concept/theme as Dean's ominous ghastly beat perfectly suits Gibbs' aggressive flow and hyper-realistic subject matter (yes, sellin' dope). The track will appear on the Grand Theft Auto V next-gen iteration. Listen after the jump!
When Hudson Mohawke teased the feature heavy version of his popular electronic instrumental banger "Chimes" fans have been thirsty for it ever since. And now, after dropping the Chimes EP earlier this year, Hudson is finally giving hip-hop heads the treat they've been waiting for. As promised "Chimes" features many of today's hip-hop all-stars (Future, French Montana, Pusha T, and Travi$ Scott) contributing to the instrumental banger. Future with the crooning hook, French and Pusha with quick verses, and Travi$ doing… something only Travi$ can do. Listen after the jump.
The release date for Wu-Tang Clan's first studio album in almost seven years is quickly approaching and after dropping the track "Ruckus In B Minor" earlier this month the Clan is back in the front with "Necklace". The cut features verses from Ghostface Killah, Cappadonna, Raekwon, and GZA with production that will surely have you thinking Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). Classic ish. After the jump!
Last month Trademark Da Skydiver returned to the fold and dropped "Keep It 100″, the first single off of his forthcoming studio album Return of the Super Villain all the while embarking on the nationwide Smokers Club Tour with Method Man, Redman, B-Real, and Mick Jenkins. Now, the tour is winding down and Trademark is sharing the visuals for his "Keep It 100″ single. Directed by Rand Rosenberg Trademark drives around New York City with a seductive passenger. Watch the visuals after the jump and pre-order Trademark's Return of the Super Villain via iTunes here.
SZA of Top Dawg Entertainment returns following her Z EP and recent collaborative track with one Willow Smith. Here SZA delivers a 100% unfiltered R&B cut. Listen after the jump.
GZA The Genius of the Wu-Tang Clan (who have an album coming out December 9th) joins singer/songwriter Hanni El Khatib for a remix of "Moonight" from his forthcoming album due out in 2015. Check it out after the jump.
Pusha season approaching! After dropping his stellar debut full length My Name Is My Name, Virginia's number one dope boy spitter Pusha Ton begins rolling out his King Push campaign. And today we are grateful to receive "Lunch Money", a bombastic and downright straight outta left-field (even more so than last year's insane "Numbers on the Board"? Maybe) cut produced by the always unpredictable Kanye West. While Pusha does his thing, spitting hot fire it's truly Yeezus' production that stands out as the reason you'll be listening to this one. 'Ye's beat here is equipped with unorthodox, disorienting sounds, but all those outrageous nuances are built around a very funky pulse. Listen after the jump.
When Drake dropped his "6 God" cut last month noted battle emcee Murda Mook responded with a freestyle of his own. In the freestyle Mook snaps, even taking shots at the OVO songwriter. Now Mook has shared the video for the freestyle. Listen after the jump.
A mere day after his 14-year-old sister Willow dropped a brand new track featuring SZA, Jaden Smith returns the favor with a new album. Entitled CTV2, Jaden has made the entire project available via his very own music app. While the project is a brief eight tracks one particular track "Let It Breathe" clocks in at over ten minutes. Needless to say Jaden continues his reputation as a stream-of-consciousness, liberated spirit on the project (see previous releases like "Trophy" and "Melancholy" for reference). Listen after the jump.

Rihanna's Brother Says She Was a Geek
Way, way back when Rihanna was known by her given name of Robyn Fenty, the singer wasn't a super sexy, skin-showing, tattoo-toting temptress. She was a typical gawky, geeky teen who liked to look for UFOs in her native habitat of Barbados. She was also a motivated, model student. Really? Our RiRi really was a good girl gone bad, to borrow the title of her third album? Oh yes.

ESPN to broadcast college football playoffsBy RACHEL COHEN
THe Associated Press | November 22,2012NEW YORK The college football playoff system will be televised on ESPN for 12 years once it starts after the 2014 season, the network said Wednesday.
The title game will be played on a Monday, at least a week after the semifinals.
The deal is worth about $470 million a year, a person with knowledge of the terms said. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the fee had not been announced.
Folks are going to love this playoff and the attention ESPN will give to it, BCS executive director Bill Hancock said in a statement.
ESPNs current four-year contract to air the Sugar, Orange and Fiesta bowls along with the BCS title game is worth about $125 million per year.
ESPN will own the rights to all six bowls involved in the four-team playoff system. Conference commissioners had decided that the two semifinals would rotate among those half-dozen sites; the four not involved each year will host major bowl games similar to the current BCS contests. The title game will be bid out each season through a separate process, as the Super Bowl is for the NFL.
There will be three contract bowls that offer automatic bids to particular conferences in years they dont host one of the semifinals: the Rose, Sugar and Orange. The network already had separate deals for the same 12-year period through the 2025 season for those games, which are affiliated with the Pac-12, Big 12, Big Ten, ACC and SEC.
The new agreement also gives ESPN the rights to the three host bowls, which will feature at-large teams along with the top squad from the group of five conferences without ties to a contract bowl. The sites for the host bowls are still to be determined, though the most likely landing spots are the Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Ariz., the Cotton Bowl in Arlington, Texas, and the Chick-fil-A Bowl in Atlanta.
Wednesdays agreement in principle includes rights for TV, radio, mobile, online and international.
Because of college footballs widespread popularity and the incredible passion of its fans, few events are more meaningful than these games, ESPN President John Skipper said.

From memory I walk down familiar streets until I get to the New Zealand Embassy in northern Shibuya, where my friend Elliot lives. I haven't seen him in almost two years, and have only emailed a few times since then, but it's as if I never left. We joke around, walk to dinner, and make plans for the weekend.
The next day I pop my Japanese SIM card into my phone and call my friend Toby to let him know that I'm around. He tells me about a party he's throwing in Yoyogi park, so a couple other friends and I join him.
Nothing about these individual scenes is particularly noteworthy. That's the point. In various places around the world I have enough good friends that I can have a pretty normal life there while visiting.
I was reading a book called Distracted, which, ironically, was so boring that I was constantly distracted from it until I finally stopped reading because I enjoyed it so little. One of the points she made was that we have shallow friendships all over the place, rather than a few deep friendships within our local communities. And, further, she said, we're all nomads, traveling everywhere rather than setting down roots in one place. These are bad things, according to her.
I obviously don't feel the same way she does about being a nomad, but I also disagree with her that infrequent friendships are necessarily shallow.
I was talking with my friend Derek once, who I think I've actually only hung out with in person three times, each time in a different location. He made a comment about how it's assumed that the quality of a friendship is assessed by how much time the two people spend together, but how he believed that wasn't actually the case. I hadn't thought about it before, but I realized that he was right. He and I had a lot of common interests and ideas, which created a quick friendship and respect. Other people I've spent tons of time with, but our values and interests are so different that we never become very close. There are clearly other, more important ,factors at work.
The same is true with these long distance friendships. The fact that I'm not able to spend most of my days with these friends doesn't mean that they aren't great friendships. In fact, I'd say it's the opposite: they're such good friends that they don't require constant attention to maintain. The depth of conversations I have with those friends is the same as with local friends.
So the author of Distracted can complain about how friendship is changing, but the rest of us can embrace it. Traveling is a blast, but it's even better to be able to travel and have the luxury of being surrounded by good friends as you do it. That's half the fun of traveling for me-making new friends everywhere I go, so that next time I go, an exotic country feels like home.
Can't wait to see my Japan friends in 10 days or so!
I'm testing out the new Smartwool FiveFingers to see how they do for smell. One week into the test, full report coming soon enough.
I swear the RV upgrades post is coming soon. My dad's in SF right now helping me out with my last upgrade before I'm ready. Direct quote: "You seem to really thrive on these monkeyed situations, but I can't stand them. If I had a gun right now I'd probably shoot myself in the head."
So...do the smartwool fivefingers smell? :)
I have the sprint's...they are great but avoid taking them off in other people' homes!
I think it depends a lot on what type of person you are - some people are introverts and it's hard for them to feel comfortable around someone right away.
It's like the stuff you talked about in the No filter post, some people just can't drop their filters before spending a bit more time with a person.
BTW, I've been making new friends in Japan by connecting with other hackers and by visiting hackerspaces. Have you been to the Tokyo Hackerspace?
It's at Shirokanedai, near Meguro.
4nchor5 la6 is near there, too. We visited them today :)
I consider you my friend, even though we only met once, at the Hacker Dojo. I feel that I know you, though, as I read your blog regularly.
I'm in Japan too. Currently in Ikebukuro, I'll be heading to Osaka on Sunday. I have a Japanese SIM as well ;)
Love the direct quote. Sounds like your next book could be "Shit Tynan's Dad Says".
I just spent the last year traveling the country in my 21' RV. Looking forward to the RV post.
Nice post, I am travelling a lot with Couchsurfing and you meet amazing friends, people who, in the span of a few days you feel intimately familiar with and trust completely; as opposed to some people back home you just hang with out of habit, but who you wouldn´t be glad to help out if they were in some kind of trouble.
Travelling makes the befriending process a lot more intense, I think it sometimes leads to a better quality of friendship because you both are of a same mindset (sharing, travelling, explorers) and the circumstances can be trying sometimes. If you re still friends after a difficult problem, you know its for real.
I'd not thought about this before but you're right. My job is in SF and my wife works in the UK - we're lucky enough to work on short contracts and so spend about half the year in each location and have sets of friends in both. As you say the sign of a good friend is not how much time you spend with them but how quickly you can get back in the friendship groove.
I think some of this has to do with the rise of social media sites meaning that friendships are less likely to wane over time.
Good post Tynan - this site is so much better since it's become a .com ;)
i agree that it is fun having friends all over the place... but at the same time, i feel like people in general end up hanging out with the people they live with (or near) the most... so i would think it would be best to live near or with your friends.
Having cool, fun, awesome neighbors and a community definitely makes me enjoy a location much more.
Side note:
What about a family? Raising kids? Granted, if you do not want either than it is irrelevant. But if you do...
This subject is on my mind a lot and I totally agree. In an increasingly smaller world, maintaining distance friendships in spurts and increasing serendipity along the way is an attractive alternative.
A common argument is that it's selfish to abandon friendship for mobility. In my case, I forego a lot of 'luxuries' in life specifically so I can spend more time and money traveling to visit friends. This is a convincing way to show someone they are special to you. Mobility is about being able to see who you want, not just be where you want.
A month ago four travelers including myself met up for a reunion in Sweden. We met and traveled together in Thailand 10 years ago. Since then meetings were sporadic or non-existent. The effort involved, plus the good times, made us better friends.
I would like to have some plot of land somewhere where land is cheap close to where I'd really like to live, build an airstrip, have a self sustaining earthship type structure and fly everywhere with a two seater ultralight that could land in fields. Kind of like that vagabonding writer. He travels everywhere but still has some sort of home base in a ranch in middle america, If I want to fly far, I'll just fly to the nearest large airport, land there and then catch my flight to where ever. Maybe have an RV when I want to live in a more urban area. It seems like with the RV though you just live in two places: San Francisco, and your home town of Austin.
When you travel with someone for a year or two, you pick up their habits. One of Todd's habits that I most admire, and am thankful to have picked, up is the practice of treating strangers like friends. When he goes to a restaurant and the waiter asks him how he is, he tells him what's going on in his life and returns the question in such a way that it obligates a genuine response. When we leave a restaurant, everyone we know gets a hug.
I get nostalgic, mostly for times I wasn't alive for. Like the middle ages. And, more relevantly, like the days before computers and cell phones, when neighbors actually recognized each other, and maybe even talked to each other. Shopkeepers were called shopkeepers, and they knew their customers by name. Their conversations extended beyond a scripted sales pitch for a rip-off extended warranty. I miss these times because I've seen them in movies and read about them in books, not because I've really experienced them.
Simple habits can be profound. One such habit that is more important than ever is to treat strangers like friends. Facebook, cell phones, and other "social" technologies have done to friendship what laminate flooring did for hardwood floors. It made things easier and more accessible, but did so at the cost of substance. In fact, this is happening in pretty much every area of life, something I've realized more fully now that I'm trying to find meat with substance; it's almost impossible. So I try to treat everyone as though they're a real person, just in case they actually are. Unfortunately I can't answer all my email anymore, but when I do I try to write to the person as if they're my friend, rather than use stock replies (which I could do, since a lot of the things people write about are similar). Once in a while I even fill someone in on secret future plans or send them a draft of something. When interacting with random people in everyday life, I make an effort to actually listen to them and to talk about things that they may not have talked about with every person they've interacted with that day.
Being an introvert, it's important for me to 'recharge my batteries' after being around groups of people. Such experiences just drain all my energy. This is the same with most introverts, if not all of them. They don't like crowds, they don't like parties, and they don't like being the centre of attention. I definitely fit into that category.
But disliking large groups of people is not the same as disliking people. Introverts can really enjoy having people in their life - just not a lot of them at the same time.
I've recently culled a whole bunch of people from my Facebook account. These were people that didn't interact with me in my life, or in Facebook. Some of them had been friends in the past, but time and distance between us have made us strangers. So I dumped them from Facebook. They'll probably never even know.
I looked at the remainder, and of the 82 people in the list, about 80% of them have been real face to face friends on my life. The remaining 20% have become friends via online interaction.
What are friends, exactly?

November 28, 2014
California's recall is getting daily coverage in the national and international media. The candidates are raising and spending millions.
But how is the voting public responding?
I journeyed over the border to Truckee today to sample some opinions.
Residents and shopkeepers along Truckee's historic downtown say
conversations are more likely to center around a local ski resort
dropping its daily ticket price than the election just ahead.
In the Bar of America, the TV's are tuned to ESPN and CNN, but the eyes are on the sports channel and the conversation is more likely to turn to the weekend scores or tonight's game than electoral politics.
Out on the street, it's hard to find any fans of Governor Gray Davis,
but there's no consensus that removing him would change anything, or
that the recall itself is wise.
News that the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals had put a hold on the election was just breaking as sampled opinion. If the election does go forward, many, but not all say they've already decided how they will cast that vote.
Though few expressed any enthusiasm for the task ahead of them, most of the people we talked with - residents and visitors - say they will take part in the election.

text: On the ninth day (either 12 September or possibly 12 August 490 BC reckoned in the proleptic Julian calendar) it became known to the Athenians that Eretria had fallen by treachery. This meant that Artaphernes was now free to move, and might attack Athens. The Athenian army went out to face the Persians. This was probably a combined decision by the generals, although Herodotus (a Greek historian) reports that they were rotating days of command and that Miltiades was in charge at this point, since he had a large part in persuading the others to do so. According to Herodotus, five Strategoi voted for the move and five voted against it, with Callimachus, the Polemarch, casting the deciding vote in favor of attack. **(Turn to the last page to see the Battle of Marathon in Maps)** Since the bulk of Persian infantry were archers, the Greek plan was to advance in formation until they reached the limit of the archer's effectiveness, the "beaten zone," or roughly 200 yards, then advance in double time to close ranks quickly and bring their heavy infantry into play. This meant that they would almost certainly end up fighting in disordered ranks, but this was preferable to giving the Persian archers more time. The Greek center was reduced to possibly four ranks, from the normal eight, in order to extend the line and prevent the Persian line from overlapping the Greeks. The wings maintained their eight ranks. The Greek heavy infantryman, or hoplite, was much more heavily armored than the Persian troops and the pikes the Greeks carried gave them greater range than the short spears and swords of the Persian foot soldier. The Persian advantage came from the bow that most of them carried (the advantage was partially cancelled by the superiority of Greek armor). As the Greeks advanced, their wings drew ahead of the center, which was under heavy fire from the archers. As they closed some Persians broke through the resulting gaps and drove the center back in rout. The Greek retreat in the center, besides pulling the Persians in, also brought the Greek wings inwards, shortening the Greek line. The inadvertent result was a double envelopment, and the battle ended when the whole Persian army, crowded into confusion, broke back in panic towards their ships and were pursued by the Greeks. Herodotus records that 6,400 Persians died for the loss of approximately 192 Athenians.

Bulls beat Miami Ohio to remain top-four seed
Buffalo's nine MAC wins are most since 2002-03
Junior forward Kristen Sharkey led the Bulls with 22 points and 14 rebounds in the team's 74-61 win over Miami Ohio Saturday. Yusong Shi, The Spectrum
With two games left to play, the women's basketball team captured a crucial win to remain in fourth place in the Mid-American Conference standings on Saturday afternoon.
The Bulls (16-11, 9-7 MAC) defeated Miami Ohio (7-20, 3-13 MAC), 74-61, in Oxford, Ohio. The win keeps Buffalo in fourth place in the MAC. The nine wins in the MAC are most the Bulls have had since the 2002-03 season.
Head coach Felisha Legette-Jack was not impressed by the way her team had played in its previous game, an 83-71 loss at Ohio (9-17, 4-11 MAC) Feb. 27, claiming that it had been "an interesting 48 hours" since then.
Legette-Jack said the team got back to playing its style of basketball Saturday by controlling the defense and tempo of the game. The Bulls held Miami Ohio to just 37.5 percent shooting from the field, including just 3 for 20 from beyond the arc.
"We are a blue collar team," Legette-Jack said. "We fight for all the hard stuff through defense. Our defense is going to create our offense so when we are blessed with the opportunity to score, we take the open shots."
Buffalo led by 15 at halftime, but the RedHawks were able to cut the lead to four with just under six minutes remaining in the game.
In the last meeting between these two teams Jan. 30, Buffalo needed a last-second bucket to clinch a 58-56 win. Buffalo used free throws to separate itself at the end of the game Saturday.
Junior forward Kristen Sharkey was the driving force for the Bulls down the stretch. Sharkey sank eight straight free throws in the final five minutes. She finished the game with 22 points - 18 of which came in the second half - and 14 rebounds. She also went 10 for 11 from the foul line in the second half.
The Bulls held a 17-13 advantage with 13 minutes left in the first half when sophomore guard Mackenzie Loesing hit a 3-pointer, which kicked off a 21-6 run for the Bulls over the next 11 minutes of the game that gave them a 38-19 lead. The RedHawks cut their deficit to 41-26 by halftime.
An early second-half run by Miami Ohio shrunk Buffalo's lead to 45-34 with 16:45 remaining, causing Legette-Jack to call a timeout. This stoppage seemed to rejuvenate the Bulls, as they scored six unanswered points.
Legette-Jack praised her team for performing as a unit rather than as individual players. She believes her team's success against the RedHawks can be attributed to their practice the day before.
"Yesterday we had fun in practice, and today we had fun in the game," Legette-Jack said. "The results show you can play this game at a high level and still have fun."
Senior Margeaux Gupilan had a game-high nine assists and added six points and four rebounds. Loesing was the team's second-leading scorer with 19 points, 15 of which came in the first half.
The Bulls have just two games remaining in the regular season, both of which will be at Alumni Arena. Buffalo will take on Akron (18-8, 12-3 MAC) at 7 p.m. Wednesday. Akron currently sits at third overall in the conference and holds a three-game lead in the win column over the Bulls in the MAC East.

"This is by far my family's favorite meal. My 6 year old would eat it everyday if I made it. My 2 year old son makes yummy noises through every bite."

"Thank you for posting this great recipe! My whole family LOVED this. I used homemade pie crusts and 2 tsp poultry seasoning in replace of the individual seasonings. The flavor was wonderful. I usually shy away from pot pie due to all the recipes being so labor intensive, or easy with a bland resulting dinner. This one delivers on ease of prep and excellent flavor! THANK YOU!"
"This received RAVE reviews from my family. Very easy to prepare. Thanks for sharing a recipe that will surely be a favorite in our household."

Movie Preview: Evan Almighty
by Entertainment 13 Reactions 0 Shares Print
I'm not too sure about Evan Almighty as a great movie, but it definitely looks like a great vehicle for Steve Carell. You've probably seen the shorter previews on TV for the family film about a modern-day Noah who is called upon by God (Morgan Freeman) to build an ark. The whole thing is pretty absurd, but that doesn't stop Carell from doing his usual hilarious thing. I'm actually surprised by how many times I laughed at this trailer. You can see for yourself if you read more

I saw a prescreening for this last week and it was hilarious!! I don't think it will appeal to those who are opposed to the Bible, but it is funny and a good story nonetheless. Go see it!

I think this movie is going to catch flack from both people who don't follow Christianity and more devout Christians. The latter will have a problem with them telling a Biblic story in a Hollywood way and the former is going to have a problem with the story line, period. But me and my family? The middle-road, tv-loving (esp. Office) semi-religious family? We're going to see it and probably love it. And I like that it's a take off Bruce Almighty - my kids liked that movie.

A laboratory testing and driving system for AIROF microelectrodes.
Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago, IL, USA.Conference proceedings: ... Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Conference 02/2004; 6:4271-4. DOI: 10.1109/IEMBS.2004.1404190
Source: PubMed
ABSTRACT The charge-injection currents of AIROF (activated iridium oxide film) microelectrodes, which are subjected to charge-balanced biphasic pulsing or monophasic current pulsing, have to be limited such that the anodic and cathodic voltage excursions are kept within safe limits of operation. In earlier studies it has been shown that when using anodic bias asymmetry in the magnitude of the balanced biphasic waveform can be used to increase the charge injection capacity of AIROF electrodes. We present the design of a single-channel testing and driving system for laboratory testing and driving of AIROF microelectrodes within safe charge-injection limits.
Conference Paper: Evaluation of SIROF Microelectrodes for Single Neuron Stimulation in Biohybrid Circuits[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Microelectrodes with an upper functional layer of dc sputtered iridium oxide film (SIROF) are intended to be applied in biohybrid circuits for single insect neuron stimulation. In this paper, we report on electrochemical evaluation and of planar disc microelectrodes of varying size (diameter of 10 to 300 mum) and their charge injection properties of SIROF at microelectrode level during fast current pulses. The pulse injection charge (Qinj) limits represent only a fraction of the charge storage capacity (Qcsc) measured by cyclic voltammetry. Electrodes with diameter down to 100 mum and 80 -100 mC .cm-2 oxide charge capacity sustain about 2 mC.cm-2 in pulse mode, while the maximum charge injection per phase for d=10 mum electrodes the respective values were Qcsc = 892.6 mC.cm-2 and Qinj = 9.1 mC.cm-2 .Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems Conference, 2007.

ABSTRACT: Activated Iridium Oxide Film (AIROF) microelectrodes are thought to be well-suited for neural stimulation of the cortex because they can sustain high charge capacity (about ten times higher than Pt microelectrodes) when characterized in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) or other high ionic strength electrolytes. However, it is known that their capacity diminishes after they are implanted in vivo. It has been suggested that tissue encapsulation is an underlying cause. In this paper, we report electrochemical measurements of AIROF microelectrodes that were performed acutely in the brain of the zebra finch. The experiment showed that the interstitial fluid environment in the bird's brain did not maintain the high charge delivery capacity of the AIROF microelectrodes. A simple compensation for access resistance may create hazards to sustained electrode integrity.Conference proceedings: ...

ABSTRACT: Capacitive coupling within high-density microelectrode arrays can degrade neural recording signal or disperse neural stimulation current. Material deterioration in a chronically implanted neural stimulation/recording system can cause such an undesired effect. We present a simple method with an iterative algorithm to quantify the cross-coupling capacitance, in-situ.Conference proceedings: ...
