No. 1 Florida State will play No. 2 Auburn tonight at the Rose Bowl for the final BCS National Championship. For two NFL teammates, the trash talk is in full force already.
Carolina Panthers kicker and former Seminole Graham Gano decided to strike first by hanging an FSU sweater in Auburn alumnus and Panthers teammate Cam Newton's locker. He then went to Twitter for the knockout blow:
@GrahamGano "Wow this is crazy! I didn't know Cam was pulling for FLORIDA STATE today!"
Newton, a former Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback for the 2010 national champion Tigers, hasn't responded yet. But we can only imagine what he's planning to retaliate with.
The Panthers will host the 49ers this weekend in the NFL divisional round of the playoffs. But for tonight, it's WAR EAGLE!

With Sorenson's retirement, speculation begins about a successor
With the retirement of Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Sorenson as Army chief information officer, the military IT community is now wondering who will fill the formidable shoes he leaves behind. Sorenson spent more than 37 years in the service, with three of those years in the CIO office.
Mike Krieger, Sorenson's deputy since July 2008, is now filling in as acting Army CIO, while Maj. Gen. Mark Bowman, currently Army director for architecture, operations, networks and space, takes on the deputy job.

An inside source familiar with the CIO office, speaking on background, indicated that Bowman is in the running for Sorenson's former post, as is Maj. Gen. Susan Lawrence, who in September stepped down as commander of the Army Network Enterprise Technology Command/9th Signal Command in Fort Huachuca, Ariz.
Sorenson, a longtime proponent of advancing military IT capabilities who has been instrumental in building the Defense Department's Global Information Grid, marked his retirement in a ceremony Nov. 4. Though little was made public of his retirement, the ceremony included about 400 guests and was presided over by Gen. Peter Chiarelli, the Army vice chief of staff, according to Margaret McBride, CIO/G-6 public affairs officer.
"Sorenson thanked the Army for the opportunity to serve and the CIO/G-6 organization for their commitment to deliver the finest [command, control, communications and computers]/IT network capabilities to soldiers," McBride said in a statement.
"We have come a long way to reshape the network enterprise strategy," Sorenson said, according to the statement. "And I believe the CIO/G-6 is on the cusp of delivering significant network capabilities to the warfighter through all our enterprise initiatives."
The new Army CIO will be selected by the secretary of defense and/or secretary of the Army, and will face Senate confirmation -- which could take several months, and which the interim CIO and deputy are prepared for, according to the inside source.

The largest U.S. mobile service provider
Verizon Communications Inc.
) reported fourth quarter 2012 adjusted earnings of 45 cents per
share. The quarter's earnings were below the Zacks Consensus
Estimate of 54 cents and also lagged the year-ago figure of 52
The company's earnings were negatively impacted by steeper
operating costs as well as a drop in wireless EBITDA (earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) margin.
Total revenue increased 5.6% year over year to $30.04 billion,
almost in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $29.71
billion. The year-over-year revenue growth was driven by
continued strong wireless services, FiOS fiber-optic services and
strategic services.
For the full year, the company posted earnings of $2.31 per share
(missing our projection by 3.8% but up 5.0% year over year), on
revenue of $115.8 million (up 4.5% from the prior year).
Segment Results
revenue increased 9.5% year over year to $20.00 billion in the
fourth quarter on the back of increased smartphone penetration
and high retail post-paid subscriber growth. Service, Equipment
and Other revenues grew 8.5%, 15.5% and 11.7%, respectively.
During the quarter, Verizon added 2.2 million retail subscribers,
including 2.1 million post-paid. At the end of 2012, the company
had 98.2 million retail subscribers (including 92.5 million
post-paid and 5.7 million prepaid customers), reflecting a 6.6%
year-over-year increase.
Despite the sluggish growth in the U.S. mobile market, rapid
expansion of 4G Long-Term Evolution (LTE) services, strong sales
Apple Inc
.'s (
) iPhone (including the new iPhone 5), and increased adoption of
Google Inc.
's (
) Android smartphones led to the strong growth in retail wireless
At the end of 2012, smartphones accounted for 58% of retail
post-paid wireless. As of January 22, the Verizon LTE deployment
covered 476 markets with more than 273 million people.
Retail post-paid churn (customer switch) increased 1 basis point
(bp) year over year to 0.95% in the reported quarter. Total
retail churn also went up by 1 bp to 1.24%. Retail post-paid ARPA
(average revenue per account) grew 6.6% year over year.
revenue dipped 1.5% year over year to $10.0 billion due to
continued decline in global business. The negative effect was
partially offset by strong FiOS fiber-optic network and better
sale of strategic service in the U.S.
FiOS revenue increased 15.7% year over year. During the reported
quarter, Verizon added 144,000 and 134,000 new customers to its
FiOS Video and FiOS Internet services, respectively.
The company exited the fourth quarter with 4.7 million (up
13.3% year over year) FiOS Video customers and 5.4 million (up
12.6%) FiOS Internet customers. The penetration rate (subscribers
as a percentage of potential subscribers) of both FiOS Internet
and FiOS Video increased to approximately 37.3% and 33.3%,
respectively, across all markets from the year-ago levels of
35.5% and 31.5%.
Strategic services revenue, including Verizon Terremark cloud and
data center services, security and IT solutions, advanced
communications, and strategic networking, increased 5.3% from the
year-ago quarter, representing 54% of global enterprise revenue
in the fourth quarter.
Total Broadband connection at the end of 2012 was 8.8 million, up
1.4% year over year.
Verizon exited 2012 with cash and cash equivalents of $3.1
billion. The company had long-term debt (including current
portion) of $52.0 billion, representing debt-to-capitalization
ratio of 37.8%. Net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA improved to 1.3 times
from 1.2 times at the end of 2011.
Verizon generated $31.5 billion of cash from operations in 2012,
while capital expenditure for the year amounted to $16.2 billion.
Other Stock Set For Earnings Release
Another telecom giant
AT&T Inc.
) will release its full fourth-quarter 2012 financial results on
January 24, 2013 after the close of trading. The Zacks Consensus
Estimates for the fourth quarter and 2012 earnings currently
stand at 47 cents per share and $2.37 per share, respectively.
The estimates reflect a respective year-over-year growth of 11.7%
and 7.8% for the fourth quarter and 2012.
Our Take
Verizon currently holds a Zacks Rank #3, implying a short-term
Hold rating. We believe Verizon is poised to grow its revenue and
earnings in 2013 based on the introduction of new smartphones,
tablets and data devices in the wireless segment, and continued
expansion of robust FiOS fiber-optic network and strategic
services, including cloud-computing business, in the wireline

The annual Cobra Gold naval exercise is underway again in Thailand with China participating for the first time.
Royal Thai Navy Deputy Commander-in-Chief Adm. Narong Phipatanasai opened the amphibious-assault training exercises on the Hat Yao training field in Samae San Feb. 14. Joining co-hosts Thailand and the United States this year are Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea and, for the first time, the People's Republic of China.
The homes of three Royal Thai Navy personnel were destroyed in a fire while residents went out to vote on Election Day.
Temperatures are rising in Sunday's Khet Udomsak council election as a candidate complained to police that someone was destroying campaign posters.
A Sattahip man got a beat-down from neighbors after trying to blow up his house in a suicide attempt.
Sattahip police and Disaster Prevention and Mitigation officers broke down the door of the Soi Bonkai rowhouse owned by Chanok Suwan, 42, Feb. 5, finding the drunk occupant holding a knife and his kitchen on fire. In an apparent suicide attempt, Chanok tried to torch a cooking-gas canister in hopes of causing a deadly explosion.
A man was in critical condition after being hit by a runaway driver on Sukhumvit Road in Sattahip.
The unidentified victim was being treated at Queen Sirikit Naval Medical Center Feb. 7 as police search for relatives. The identity of the hit-and-run driver is unknown.
Rescue workers tend to the victim in the middle of Sukhumvit Highway.
Witnesses said the victim was crossing Sukhumvit near the 700 Rai Market when a black car hit him and kept speeding toward Pattaya. Police recovered car parts at the scene and are examining closed-circuit television footage to identify the car.
Top finishers in November's Miss Mimosa Queen transvestite beauty pageant made merit by releasing sea turtles into the wild in Sattahip.
Mimosa Managing Director Jirachot Kaewsathien led winner Nisamanee Lertwonpong, 22, a student from Srinakharinwirot University, and runners-up Pachonwan Khantipinyo, 19, and Pattarawarin Bunprasert, 22, to the Royal Thai Navy's Sea Turtle Conservation Center Jan. 31.
Top finishers in November's Miss Mimosa Queen transvestite beauty pageant brought smiles to the faces of special-needs children, providing lunch and scholarships to children at Plutaluang's Ban Khru Boonchu House.
It may be the "year of the horse," but the elephants at Nong Nooch Tropical Garden did their best to ring in the Chinese New Year.
The garden's celebration began Jan. 29 with a pachyderm parade as well as the requisite dancing lions and dragons.
Naval ordinance experts were summoned when an American mortar round was discovered behind a Plutaluang home.
Sattahip police arrested a monk who allegedly had been selling drugs for four years from a temple in Najomtien.
National Command Center for Drugs officers cuffed Mongkol Seangthong, 32, following a sting operation Jan. 22 at the Sapsomboon Temple.

A fun shooter that does little to break the mold
The Short
- Two-player top down and side scrolling space shooter
- Uses regular shooting and bombs ala Xevious
- Has "State of the Art" and "High Resolution," according to the box
- Lots of good powerups and secrets
- Decent music
- The cover is a picture of an angel dude with one shoulder pad holding a future space gun
- Like every other space shooter on the NES
- The whole "cross legged pink guy" thing on the side-scrolling stage is a little weird
- Limited lives and continues
|DARK, the world-ruling computer has gone rogue, and so it's time to send the angels
The Long
Legendary Wings is an NES port of the Capcom arcade game of the same name, and is pretty much another space shooter. However, where Legendary Wings differs from the multitude of others (Lifeforce, Gradius, etc.) is it's unique art style as well as the clever use of power-ups and mixing overhead with side-scrolling sections.
Legendary Wings is mostly played from a top-down perspective, where you play a some pink (or blue) angel...guy. With a gun. Enemies come in waves, and power-up enemies are specifically designated. As well as being able to shoot the air, you can drop bombs (like Xevious) to blow up enemies on the ground. Power-ups also double as extra hits, and every time you are attacked you go "down" a powerup level. The exception of this is when you get five power ups and turn into some big fire bird. Then you have a couple of hits before reverting back to sucky regular pink angel guy.
|And you get to kill some dragons
The "trick" to Legendary Wings is the large number of secrets. Bombing certain area unlock caves where you can go and get bonus money, continues, and powerups. On the flip side, some of these caves are bad, which forces you to go through a challenging side-scrolling section before kicking you out exactly where you were. Rude.
Bosses recycle frequently, mostly being the "shoot the weak point when it is available" variety and then in different colors. You also fight dragons on the top-down view, which aren't particularly challenging.
What is memorable about this game is how silly the angels look in the side view stages. Seriously, why are they flying with their legs crossed? Why do their wings looked tacked on? Why are they lounging back with their guns like they are on some street corner trying to pick up ladies?
|That just looks awkward.
All in all, if you like these kinds of games, Legendary Wings is certainly better than the droves of space shooter garbage that came out on the NES. It is better than it's arcade counterpart, and can be a lot of fun two-player. The game also gets very difficult very quickly (it wouldn't be an NES game if it didn't), so it can take several tries before you finally beat it.
Plus, it's state-of-the-art and high resolution! It says so right on the box!
I snagged my copy for $3, but I usually see it from $5-6. If you are a fan of these kinds of games, it's totally worth it. If I were to give it a score rating, it would be three out of five.

In FTC v. Actavis,133 S. Ct. 2223 (2013), the Supreme Court held that it was a potential violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act for a pharmaceutical patentee to settle patent litigation with an alleged generic infringer where the settlement involved a "substantial" cash "reverse" payment (i.e. the payment is made by the patentee to the alleged infringer) coupled with an agreement by which the generic manufacturer would stay out of the market for a fixed period of time.
In recent years, courts across the country have seen an increase in lung cancer cases based on alleged asbestos exposure. Many of these cases involve plaintiffs with significant histories of smoking tobacco. Despite this common sense alternative causation, courts vary widely on the impact of this factual scenario depending on the jurisdiction's utilization of comparative or contributory negligence, recognition of a claim of strict liability, and method of apportionment of damages. Consideration of these factors is essential to evaluate the defense of a case and the potential financial impact of an adverse verdict.
This Article discusses employment discrimination lawsuits and the benefit to using 42 U.S.C. 1983 as a way to name individuals in an employment discrimination lawsuit.
Does the Supreme Court's ruling in FTC v. Actavis apply outside the context of Hatch-Waxman generic drug litigation?
As soon as a party is served with a summons and complaint and sometimes sooner, there arises a duty to preserve evidence, including electronically stored information (ESI). This duty requires both counsel and clients to comply with any litigation hold and monitor ongoing compliance efforts.
Recent developments in New York commercial litigation include a decision by the Court of Appeals regarding a contract relating to the music of Duke Ellington and a decision by a trial court disqualifying an attorney under the attorney-witness rule.
Indiana Family and Social Services Administration v. Saint Catherine Hospital of Indiana, LLC (In re Saint Catherine Hospital of Indiana, LLC), 511 B.R. 117 (S.D. Ind. 2014) addressed the appeal from a bankruptcy court decision which granted summary judgment to Saint Catherine Hospital of Indiana, LLC (Saint Catherine) on its claim for avoidance and recovery of a preferential transfer pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section 547 against Indiana Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA). The district court affirmed the bankruptcy court's decision.
Eight Democratic members of the House Committees on Financial Services and Oversight and Government Reform recently wrote a letter to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") encouraging the SEC to take action against companies that enter into agreements with employees that include whistleblower restrictions. Companies should be mindful of the fact that there is an active effort underway to encourage the SEC to take enforcement action against those that include these types of provisions in their agreements with employees.
If a potential party has something to say in a case, he or she should say it before the case is four years old. So said the Ninth Circuit on November 12 in denying all motions to intervene, including the California Attorney General's, in Peruta v. County of San Diego, 742 F.3d 1144 (9th Cir. 2014)
Where is the line to be drawn between the obligations imposed by the antitrust laws and the rights granted to intellectual property owners?

Jillian Venters was a fairly spooky and morbid child. When she discovered the existence of the whole Gothic sub-culture, she clapped her hands with glee and fell upon it like a babybat upon a box of Count Chocula cereal. Since then, the Lady of the Manners has spent a not inconsiderable amount of time trying to gently persuade others in her chosen subculture that being a polite Goth is much, much more subversive than just wearing T-shirts with "edgy" sayings on them. She lives in Seattle.
This book is informative, funny, good advice, and easy to read.
This is a book I would strongly recommend to anyone considering getting into the Goth scene or to parents whose children are into Goth.
One of the things I love the most about Jillian Venters, the original "Cupcake Goth," is that she doesn't take herself too seriously.
I love this book. Its a very good guide for anyone who is in or learning about the goth subculture. I follow Jillian on tumblr this book has her personality all over it.Published 3 months ago by Amanda

November 26, 2014
NORTON, Mass. (AP) - Steve Stricker has made an eagle on the final hole at TPC Boston for a 6-under 65 to share the 54-hole lead with Retief Goosen and Sean O'Hair in the Deutsche Bank Championship, the second PGA Tour playoff event.
On a day when Tiger Woods fell out of contention, Stricker, Goosen and O'Hair sat atop a crowded leaderboard in which a dozen players were separated by three shots going into the Labor Day finish.
O'Hair rallied with two birdies on his last three holes for a 70, while Goosen missed a chance to take the outright lead when he couldn't get up-and-down from a bunker on the par-5 18th hole for birdie. He shot a 68.
Woods hit his first tee shot into a hazard and it never got much better. He wound up with a 72 to fall nine shots behind.

"I ordered my cards after completing the design. I made further changes and nothing was too much trouble, the amendments were made without fuss. The paper quality of the invitations and the envelopes were excellent. They even came with a tissue insert for the envelope and an extra 7 cards as spares. Service was exceptional and delivery very quick Will definitely be recommending to friends and family."
"These invites were all i hoped for and more and arrived super quickly. The designer was easy to work with and prompt and personalised my invites perfectly."
"Can't say enough about the quality and "class" of this traditional heavyweight William Arthur invitation! Simply stunning and we received so many compliments! WPD was so easy to work with - spacing and wording was exactly as I wanted it to be. The online chat is great and so helpful. It was so nice to have William Arthur include a few extra invitations at no charge."
"The invitation is beautiful and the turn around time and delivery service were accurate and speedy. I had one custom change (the name of the ceremony site wouldn't fit initially) and that was taken care of, no problem. However, I wish some additional text/customization was possible. My ceremony and reception are at two different locations and it was somewhat problematic to convey that on the invitation itself. I ordered separate reception cards but anticipating half of them being lost or forgotten :)"
"So pleased with the quality of this product and its related stationery. Customer service was prompt and always helpful. Received many compliments on these from guests."

Irvine Congressman John Campbell to retire
Kitty Felde/KPCC
Republican Congressman John Campbell.
Five-term Republican Congressman John Campbell of Irvine says he's stepping down next year.
Campbell came to Congress in 2005 to replace Chris Cox, who left to chair the Securities and Exchange Commission. Campbell is a fiscal conservative from a primarily Republican district in Orange County.
In a statement released late Thursday, Campbell said he never intended "to be a career politician."
He told KRLA talk host Hugh Hewitt that twice a week flights between D.C. and California, along with long hours and constituent events every weekend, are exhausting. Campbell said he advised a West coast freshman lawmaker to try "Red Bull and Tylenol PM." He says it's "a very hard lifestyle when you're west of the Mississippi — when you're three time zones away."
Campbell missed two weeks of votes in early June because of orthopedic issues. His staff says he'll be getting both hip and shoulder surgery in the near future.
Maven's Morning Coffee: Antonio Villaraigosa says goodbye, Eric Garcetti waves hello, Metro approves new light rail line
Pool/Getty Images
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa speaks with chief of police William Bratton during his black tie Inaugural Gala held at the Dorothy chandler Pavilion June 30, 2005. His last day in office is Sunday.
Good morning, readers. Welcome to the Maven's Morning Coffee -- a listing of the important headlines, news conferences, votes and announcements you need to know to fuel up and tackle your day.
The Maven's Morning Coffee is also available as a daily email. Click here to subscribe.
Today is Friday, June 28, and here is what's happening in Southern California politics:
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa is in his final days in office. He is on a 24-hour bus tour of Los Angeles today. He also did exit interviews with NPR and the Los Angeles Times.
Mayor-elect Eric Garcetti will attend his final meeting of the Los Angeles City Council this morning. He's spent six weeks preparing for his role as mayor by embarking on a listening tour and sorting through 2,000 job and commission applications, reports KPCC.
Eric Garcetti transitions into his new role as mayor of Los Angeles
Shahrouz Khalifian/ KPCC
Eric Garcetti will be sworn in as mayor on Sunday.
Sunday evening, Eric Garcetti will be sworn in as mayor of Los Angeles. He's been fairly quiet since his May election, but that doesn't mean he hasn't been working behind the scenes on the transition into his new role.
For six weeks, a tight knit circle of advisers has been preparing Garcetti. They've pored over 2,000 applications for jobs and commission appointments, and they've held listening tours throughout the city.
"There's learning that goes on during the transition. Not just planning, but also a tremendous amount of learning," said Robin Kramer, who served as chief of staff to mayors Richard Riordan and Antonio Villaraigosa.
The transition is an important time because it allows a mayor-elect to think about the culture of his office, according to Kramer.

CA Legislature approves Governor's plan to dismantle enterprise zones (Updated)
Justin Sullivan/Getty Images
Assembly Speaker John Pérez (L) and Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg (R) rustled up enough votes to enact changes that Gov. Jerry Brown wanted in the state's enterprise zone program.
The California Assembly voted Thursday to scrap the state's 40 enterprise zones, including several in Southern California.
AB93 phased out a tax credit for businesses that invest and hire in areas designated as economically depressed, and replaces it with broader tax credits for businesses that hire people who've have a tough time finding or keeping a job, including former inmates. There's also a tax credit for manufacturing and technology purchases.
In a statement, Governor Jerry Brown called the vote "a big, bipartisan win for California businesses and working people."
Brown has been pushing to eliminate the enterprise zones as part of this year's budget. He says the $750 million dollar annual tax credit the program enjoys has been squandered on beneficiaries that include strip clubs and casinos.
State Assembly kills so-called Wal-Mart bill
DON EMMERT/AFP/Getty Images
The so-called "Wal-Mart bill," which would have fined large employers whose workers end up on Medi-Cal, failed to pass the state Assembly.
The California Assembly voted down a bill Thursday that would have fined large employers whose workers end up on Medi-Cal — the state subsidized health care program for low-income residents.
AB880, better known as "the Wal-Mart bill," fell nine votes short of passage. Democrats in the Assembly were hoping to pass the bill while they still have a super-majority, which ends July 1 when Bob Blumenfield (D-San Fernando Valley) resigns on July 1 to take his seat on the L.A. City Council.
The bill's author, Assemblyman Jimmy Gomez (D-LA), warned without it there would be nothing to deter companies from cutting workers hours in order to sidestep the Affordable Care Act requirements to provide insurance to full-time workers.
"If their employees in the inverse end up on Medi-Cal, and we don't recoup some of those costs, it is a de-facto subsidy for those companies," Gomez said.

I am removing wallpaper from plaster walls in my 150+ year old house. The wallpaper is coming off pretty easily in most areas. Here is my problem. In some areas, it is peeling off paint. Should I peel the paint in the areas where it is coming off? I don't want to remove it in the whole room. It is a large kitchen. When I go to paint the walls should I sand around where the paint is peeling off? It looks like the under layer of paint is oil based and then they painted water based paint on top of it. What should I do?
I would scrape off what is loose and hopefully it will be the entire room. Then you can sand the edges to feather them out, and then prime the entire room with an oil based primer to help lock down what is left. The finish paint then should be a acrylic latex in satin finish to make it easier to clean but bear in mind the more sheen to paint has the more the defects in walls will show up.
Hope this helps out.
