AP Photo/Paul AbellFreshman tackle John Theus and the rest of Georgia's offensive line will be tested by a dominating Alabama defense on Saturday.ATHENS, Ga. -- Georgia coach Mark Richt often remarks how he had serious doubts whether the Bulldogs' offensive line could cut it when the team opened spring practice this year.
The Bulldogs' veteran defense thoroughly dominated a line that had to replace three NFL draftees at first before offensive line coach Will Friend's group finally began to make progress. And that process has continued during the regular season, with the line exceeding its coaches' modest expectations as the new lineup continued to grow more comfortable as a group.
"They've improved each week and we've got to keep going that way," said Friend, whose players are among the biggest factors in Saturday's SEC championship matchup with Alabama according to many analysts. "The season's a long way from over and there's still another month left, I guess, to keep improving and keep going. So they've gotten better, but at the same time we've got to be more consistent."
The low point of the season was certainly Georgia's 35-7 loss to South Carolina, when defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, in particular, helped whip the Bulldogs up front. That was a painful experience for the line, but it was also a valuable lesson for the group.
"It wasn't that hard for them to realize what we had to work on and we needed to play better," Friend said. "We try to be pretty honest with how we think guys played and I feel like they kind of respond better when you tell them the truth and tell them how you feel. So they knew.
"And of course, if you've got a good group, they know anyway, so they could tell and they saw what they needed to work on and it was just go back to work. It would have been no different if we would have played better."
Alabama's dominant defense is not particularly similar to South Carolina's in structure, but it is even more effective when it comes to results. The Crimson Tide rank among the national leaders in every major defensive category and represents perhaps the biggest matchup challenge that Friend's line will have faced this season.
"They've got a great defense," Friend said. "Obviously the stats speak for themselves. When you put the tape on, you see how well they play the techniques and how hard they play and how physical they are. They're well coached, they're focused on what they're doing, they play it just like their coaches want them to play it and they're very impressive, so it's a big challenge."
Chris Mayes to enroll in January
October, 22, 2012
By Radi Nabulsi | ESPN Insider
In Georgia's 3-4 defensive scheme, the value of a big, talented nose guard cannot be understated.
Enter Chris Mayes (Griffin, Ga./Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College).
When the Bulldogs don't have a solid starter at nose, the defense sputters, as was evident in 2010. The following year with junior college transfer John Jenkins manning the middle, Georgia ended the season ranked No. 5 in the nation in total defense. In 2013, Jenkins will be gone and Kwame Geathers, if he sticks around for his senior year, will need some help.

Virtual Storage Portal (VSP)
Another meaning for VSP is vertical solutions provider.
Data management tools
Another meaning for VSP is vertical solutions provider.
Virtual Storage Portal (VSP), a service mark of StorageNetworks, is a software application with a Web browser interface that lets a customer see how much storage is being used, predict future needs, grant access to storage administrators, view performance, and otherwise manage the storage that they have rented from StorageNetworks. As a leading storage service provider, StorageNetworks operates a network of what it calls "storage point-of-presence" data centers. An enterprise or a "dotcom" company with significant storage needs but a lack of expertise in buying and managing storage might choose to outsource its storage from a company like StorageNetworks. VSP allows this particular company's customers to look at its storage infrastructure and otherwise manage and forecast its rented storage resources. VSP is offered free to its customers. StorageNetworks has no immediate plans to market it independently. Like similar companies, StorageNetworks offers "plain old storage space" as well as more expensive backup service and a "zero loss" service.

Visitor Center Structure.Jan 14, 2008 Demo 29 comments
Beta 0.01 from 2005. Contains the Visitor Center structure and human characters. No living dinosaurs in this release.
In this adventure, you are Robert Muldoon, the person in charge of the safety of the park. The game will proceed in a relatively linear but intense way with Resident Evil inspired management of the stress.
Because of obvious reasons, we won't give out lots of details about the storyline, but it will have enough surprises to provide bunch of action and also situations that require reflection.
We allowed ourselves to change and include some miscellaneous new things compared to the original story, in order to intensify the gaming experience; we looked at the gaming aspect and at the same time worked on make the levels, characters, events recognizable... make parallels between the original storyline and the modification one, and get the feeling of reviving some movies moments.
Actually it will be like a side story which includes several scenes from the original film. The story plays out at the timeframe seen in the first movie.
Biotechnology society InGen, created and lead by the rich american John Parker Hammond, built a park on a Costa Rican bay island, Isla Nublar, called "Jurassic park". This park is somewhat special as it allows fortunate people to see real live dinosaurs, created from a combination of genetic manipulations and dinosaur blood found in fossilized amber.
Due to recent incidents in the park, InGen investors start to worry, and demand that the park calls in specialists before it's opened to the public. Thus, after long negotiations, paleontologist Alan Grant, paleobotanist Ellie Sattler and mathematician Ian Malcolm are sent to the island for the week end, with lawyer Donald Gennaro, who represents Hammond investors, in order to investigate the incidents. The visit starts out well, park systems work fine so far and everybody is amazed by seeing the first dinosaurs. Robert Muldoon (you!!) is checking the park an system security...
But some unexpected things are happening in the meantime: InGen's biggest competitor, Biosyn industries, wishes to obtain Hammonds technology; Biosyn's main advisor Lewis Dogson contacts the extremely qualified programmer Dennis Nedry, who programmed the entire Jurassic Park system, and gives him an opportunity: in exchange of a huge amount of money, Nedry would steal a few InGen's embryo and deliver these to Biosyn. Unfortunately, Nedry decides to start his business this week-end.
Furthermore, a violent tropical storm moves over the island, power is lost, visitors are stuck and the dinosaurs start to escape from their enclosures...

Greetings everyone!
So almost a year has passed since our last news post and certainly we owe you an explanation. But as that would be to boring and long to read we move on over to the news :)
What you will see it the fruit of collaboration between several member this year. We finished the explorer, drivable, and new weapons, usable, like the machete and SPAS12 which has been redone. We also advanced a lot with NPC, our character models, Nedry and Hammond are still in progress but have advanced much more and are included in the game.
New fauna has been added, birds, insects, crocodiles, and, of course, many new dinosaurs, animated, and hostiles.
We are also working on a whole new AI for dinosaurs, so the most clever of them will patiently hide so he can ambush you when you feel safe. All levels have been greatly improved, with better lights, better design to enhance your experience. Optimizations have naturally also been done to, in fact they take up a lot of the mappers time as each individual object has to be addressed and given the properties to give the smallest amount of mark on the performance while still looking good.
One of our dearest member is releasing the MESA (Maya Exporter for Source Absolute), which is a script that improves the valve's one used to export models and animation from Autodesk Maya to Valve's source² for the newer versions of Maya. This contribution should help a lot of people in the modding community with an incredible workflow of one effective click import to source. It's still being enhanced, but it's already a great tool for all modders working on Maya. Some of our members in JL make use of it already of course.
We mainly need a coder/programer to help on AI, and unique features of Jurassic Life that need improvements (inventory, climate change...). We could use an helping hand from yet another modeler so if you are interested contact us via the forum. Make sure you do have the skills we request. Good modeling knowledge and knowledge of Zbrush or Mudbox for example. Rigging and animation skills for Source is a large plus. Knowledge of exporting to Source is preferred. We could also use the help of someone who knows well the choreography tool.
Open request about Source engine error: Maybe someone in the community can help us out with a problem we encountered recently. When using the flashlight that casts dynamic shadows we get a crash in one of the levels in a certain area. When setting shadow settings to medium the bug is gone. Seems related to flashlight in other words. "To many vertex for a dynamic vertex buffer (number value)>(number value) Tell a programmer to up VERTEX_BUFFER_SIZE" is the error. It could actually be hardware related as only 1 of us gets it it seems (still needs verification).

Beta 0.01 from 2005. Contains the Visitor Center structure and human characters. No living dinosaurs in this release.
Release date is uncertain.
The game ran ok on i5 750 with 4850 graphics card and 8GB RAM.
I now have a HD7950 but the improvement was surprisingly weak.
Only on one level the fps drops o 25-30 in as specific area. Optimization is of high importance for us to be able to map what we want. The 2007 engine is very limited and I've spent hours and hours making LOD models and trying to solve crashes due to hitting entity limits. And they all are solved but one last crash. The last crash does not happen always but around the same spot.
But with the transfer to SDK 2013 handeled by Redeyes there are performance improvements and hopefully some instability issues will be resolved. The SDK transfer is not complete though.
I just want to add a few things more here.
First I forgot to say I ran the game on all settings maxed except for Reflect All (real time water reflection with plants seen in reflection). I used World Reflection. Second best. 8xAA 16xAF. And that the fps value was for the 4850 card and the 7950 +- a few frames in difference. Resolution 1650x1080. In catalyst control center I also use Adaptive Multisampling which can be expensive and steal fps.
But now I must say that today I updated my BIOS dues to another issue and the BIOS boot screen told me "Performance Unlocked". Well that sounds good I thought, let's try JL. And so now in the place I had only 25-30 fps I have 60-80! Now that is an improvement. I don't know how this all works but I'm satisfied and this means all our levels have acceptable performance now. :)
Hey so this guy who made this cryengine game called Operation Genesis got Universal to get him to remove all content Jurassic Park related so just a heads up if you ever release this mod that you might want to not include jurassic park related phrases plus I love your jp raptor model and I want to use it when you guys release the full game for non-commercial use if not ill make my own either way cant wait for this, also keep a heads up for dj_mix_5000 and his Operation Genesis that might come back as Jurassic Island its AMAZING he has spot on 3d models with baby dinos as well and themed park models if they win their claim against Universal you should totally collaborate!
Whats the release date and system req?
Can anyone plz help me. Whenever i try to run this mod i get an error message saying: Can't find background image materials\console\startup_loading.vtf. What am i doing wrong?
What link did you use when you downloaded the mod? Some of them are bad links, this could be the problem.
Thanks for the relpy. Will try an other link
This is a very late reply. Sorry.
Well my goal as a mapper and modeler has been to as far as possible change the art direction from the familiar HL2 one to something original for JL. Of course there will always be something from HL2 in there but if I can help it I wish to reduce as much as possible the things that could break the immersion and make people think of other games. Hopefully we can do this for our characters too. :)
Thanks for the comment!
hello please help me i am unable to open the vivitor centre structure please give me instruction to open it i have also half life 2 game and visitor center structure file please help me taurusaurus

Most of us are familiar with the three Rs - reduce, reuse, recycle but this week kids at the Essex Elementary School learned about the fourth R - rot. This week the Essex School District begins composting in all of it's schools. Students from the Essex Edge Academy worked with Chittenden Solid Waste to find a way to prepare younger students for the new sorting bins in the cafeteria. Led by teacher Lindsay Hallman, they came up with a creative way to pass on the composting message through a short skit. Conservation Correspondent Bridget Butler visited the school to watch one of their performances.

This summer Moomin mastered hula hooping with two or three hoops. It looks so cool! I wish I could do it!
Hooping in Dolores Park
He also learned a cool trick move from his aunt Minnie. You reach around behind your back and grab the hoop, then spiral it up above your head and somehow magically keep it going WHILE ALSO SOMEHOW keeping the other hoop going. Moomin picked up how to do this on his second try and then after a few more tries, could do it fairly smoothly. Impressive!
What can I say. He certainly didn't get this talent from me!

Will Ferrell was honored with the Mark Twain Prize, an award given to funny people by funny people, only everyone wears a tuxedo and tries to be polite as they are heckling you. In short, it's a big deal. So, we're going to have a themed show today because Ferrell is funny — "Anchorman" and "Old School" and an excellent cameo in "Wedding Crashers" and a dominant run on SNL and, well, you get the idea — and Mark Twain is cool.

Greene County Sheriff's officials are responding to a report CBS19 first broadcasted on Friday, Jan. 3rd.
Last week, residents in one neighborhood said that they've had a series of break-ins, and haven't seen much police response.
One resident in the Shady Grove Mobile Park said his home has been broken into, and several of his neighbors had their homes or cars broken into. He doesn't think police are doing enough to keep the neighborhood safe.
Sheriff Steve Smith says that residents' safety is a top priority.
"We're here doing our job. We're here to protect them and do the best we can, and if we do not get a call to go to someone's house, where they possible have a DNE, we don't do that. We investigate every call, and we're here for them, and we're here to do that job, and we'll do that job."
Sheriff Smith encourages Greene County residents to report any problems to his office.

Haley Reinhart. Sings. Sexy.by Hilton Hater at . Comments
American Idol saves the final spot in its performance shows for its favorites, its most buzz-worthy contestants.
Therefore, it was a bit perplexing last night when the concluding act was not Pia Toscano or Jacob Lusk or James Dubin. Instead, Haley Reinhart was given the honor...
... and she proceeded to prove she was worthy of it.
Covering "Bennie and the Jets," Haley started out lounging on a piano (the same one Durbin set on fire) and ended up waving her arms around on stage, clearing having fun and leading Steven Tyler to quip: "You. Sing. Sexy."
Randy called this the best performance of the night. Do you agree?
Last time I checked the reviews on ITunes Haley had about 2200 reviews and Amazing was the word most used. Out of the 2200 reviews maybe 15 or so were negative. I love this girl. If she sings a great song tonight, she will be moving up in the ranks again. Everybody is talented this year. My favorites are Haley, Scotty, James, Lauren, and Casey in that order.
Haley gave an amazing sophisticated performance. Her voice full of the kind of nuance and fearlessness that is usually only seen in a seasoned performer. Pitch perfect she slid over the notes with slick confidence. Sir Elton would be proud and a star was born last night.
wow i havent heard her til just now shes awesome! i think she over does it a bit though, but shes my new favorite i think!
Hailey had the best performance- and defenietly she is the best singer with the most personality - on top of that she is superhot! Vote for hailey yeyyy
she was by far the best the only problem I have is I would love to purchase her singing the whole song,I know this song has been around for years but I think it sounds better than Sir Eltons and yes she does put a sexy twist on it Anna you need to learn music
I agree with Marc, Haley was awesome! She was so relaxed and made it look effortless. She might be the only contestant this year to have an amazing voice AND a personality.
Haha Haley was the best of the night, by far. Jacob, Thia, Scotty, Naima, and Stefano had some of the most embarassing performances in the show's history. Haley, Casey, Lauren, and Pia are definetly safe tonight. Say what you want. Facts are facts.
I can't understand why she was considered the best of the night. Sure, she's pretty, but not one of the best singers. Scotty, Thia Magia, Jacob and just three that were better

Hip-Hop superstar 50 Cent has been tagged to star in the upcoming UK film, Dead Man Running , which will be directed by the same man responsible for the highly successful video game, Grand Theft Auto 2.
According to Billboard, the rapper/actor will try his hand with the English audience as he portrays a ruthless loan shark. 50's character demands an ex-convict, who is trying to live a straight life, one full day to deliver $150,000 to pay him off. The targeted man moves throughout East London's dog tracks and Manchester's underground drug world in order to come up with the cash before it's too late.
Directed and written by Alex de Rakoff, the flick will also star Brenda Blethyn, Tamer Hassan, Danny Dyer and Monet Mazur.
Filming for Dead Man Running began yesterday (November 19), however, no release date has been announced yet.
In related news, the G-Unit leader has also been chosen to star in director Gela Babluani's upcoming flim 13.
According to Variety, 50 will be joined alongside actors Mickey Rourke and Jason Statham in the remake of Babluani's Sundance-winning French version called 13 Tzameti.
It will center on a man who willingly steals an unknown package that is expected to pay out a fortune in the end.
13 reportedly began shooting this week (November 17) but no release date has been given yet.
50's new album, Before I Self-Destruct, was recently pushed back and is set to drop sometime in early 2009.

Thank you Anthony for highlighting our dogs. They are so important in our hunting and otherwise lives. Since my kid and grandkids are not nearby, my 2 Labs have become the center of my life. I suspect others on this site feel the same way. Jay Gore

FDA Budget for Food Safety Rises
The 2015 budget for the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will rise by 8.1% over the 2014 budget.
The total food portion of the budget will be $1.48 billion for food safety, which is an increase of $263 million above the 2014 enacted level. The FDA will invest $24 million to advance standards in food safety modernization through implementation of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). The FSMIA is one of the biggest reforms in US food safety law in over 70 years, and aims to ensure the US food supply is safe by moving from responding to contamination to preventing it. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), contaminated food puts approximately 48 million Americans at risk every year.
The implementation of the broad preventive controls framework mandated in FSMA aims to reduce cases of foodborne illness such as the E. coli O157 contamination of pre-packaged salads, Salmonella and Listeria contamination of cheese products, and Listeria contamination in cantaloupe. It will also help to minimize market disruptions and any economic costs imposed by outbreaks.

Third and Indiana: A Novel
by Steve Lopez
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Excellent Philly fiction by Inquirer writer Lopez.
It's easy to see how Lopez's time as a columnist in big cities has left him somewhat cynical. There is a sense of hopelessness in many characters throughout this novel. Yet there is an underlying eternal hope in some of their actions that make this book an engaging read.
From describing characters motivations and mindsets, to explaining the details of a drug riddled neighborhood I got the feeling that this author had been there and done that. Although the semi predictable converging storyline of 3 main characters seemed to struggle at times. The feelings and actions of the mother seemed obvious and gave her very little depth and made her actions seem redundant.
Not a bad book from a sociological, understanding peoples actions, standpoint. But shallow as far as some of the characters actions and development.

Set in Philadelphia's badlands, where drug gangs rule the streets, this debut novel has the explosive authenticity, the narrative drive, and the tender passion to knock you out of your seat! Fourteen-year-old Gabriel's father skipped two years ago. Now his mother, Ofelia, is searching for her runaway son, riding her bicycle at night through the city's darkest, most violent stretch.

Jerry is right - we can place our own ads there if we have them. If we don't have any to show, then google just fills the spot. We give general parameters for what should go there, but we don't get a specific say other than to say

Dear Secretary Vilsack:
A team of senior plant and animal scientists have recently brought to my attention the discovery of an electron microscopic pathogen that appears to significantly impact the health of plants, animals, and probably human beings. Based on a review of the data, it is widespread, very serious, and is in much higher concentrations in Roundup Ready (RR) soybeans and cornsuggesting a link with the RR gene or more likely the presence of Roundup. This organism appears NEW to science!
Agricultural companies defend their stonewalling by saying that unrestricted research could make them vulnerable to lawsuits if an experiment somehow leads to harm, or that it could give competitors unfair insight into their products. But it's likely that the companies fear something else too: An experiment could reveal that a genetically engineered product is hazardous or doesn't perform as well as promised.
Whatever the reasons, the results are clear: Public sector research has been blocked. In 2009, 26 university entomologists bug scientists wrote a letter to the Environmental Protection Agency protesting restricted access to seeds. The letter went public, but not most of the writers' identities. They were afraid of retaliation from the companies that might further hamper their research.
Even more than questionable approvals, its the unwillingness to label these products as such even the G.E. salmon will be sold without distinction that is demeaning and undemocratic, and the real reason is clear: producers and producer-friendly agencies correctly suspect that consumers will steer clear of G.E. products if they can identify them. Which may make them unprofitable. Where is the free market when we need it?
A majority of our food already contains G.M.O.s, and theres little reason to think more isnt on the way. It seems our regulators are using us and the environment as guinea pigs, rather than demanding conclusive tests. And without labeling, we have no say in the matter whatsoever.
Many agricultural pesticides including some previously untested and commonly found in food disrupt male hormones, according to new tests conducted by British scientists. The researchers strongly recommended that all pesticides in use today be screened to check if they block testosterone, which is critical to mens and boys reproductive health. Thirty out of 37 pesticides tested by the University of London altered male hormones, including 16 that had no known hormonal activity until now. Most are fungicides applied to fruit and vegetable crops, including strawberries and lettuce. This study indicates that, not surprisingly, there are many other endocrine disruptors that we have not yet identified or know very little about, said Emily Barrett, a University of Rochester scientist who was not involved in the study. The findings come as the EPA faces opposition from the pesticide industry after expanding its Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program, which requires testing of about 200 chemicals found in food and drinking water to see if they interfere with estrogen, androgens or thyroid hormones.
With a loss of up to $800 per tonne and a minimum five-year wait before Marsh's crops can be recertified ''organic'', compensation could be big. Except that the defendant will be bankrolled by that shady agro-giant, that food-world Voldemort, Monsanto.
Morally, if not legally, the case draws on the 1990s precedent of a Saskatchewan farmer, Percy Schmeiser. Schmeiser had spent 40 years perfecting his own canola hybrids when Monsanto genes were detected through 80 per cent of his crop. Far from compensating Schmeiser for the loss of a life's work, Monsanto decided aggression was the best form of defence and sued him, as it had hundreds of others, for unlicensed gene-use.
Immaterial, argued Monsanto, that the genes might have been wind or bee-propagated. They were illegally in his plants, and he should pay; $400,000, to be exact. This patentability of subsistence crops is a real evil; not just because individuals get screwed, but because it privatises a commons.
Bob ScowcroftBob Scowcroft in 2008, in one of his signature shirts.Photo: Bart NagelAfter nearly three decades at the center of organic food and farming world, Bob Scowcroft recently retired as head of the Organic Farming Research Foundation (OFRF). Scowcroft was California Certified Organic Farmers' first executive director in 1987, then went on to cofound and lead the OFRF for two decades. OFRF has played a key role on two fronts -- advocating for organic farming research and pushing for a state, and then national, organic law.
For decades, Americans believed that we had the worlds healthiest and safest diet. We worried little about this diets effect on the environment or on the lives of the animals (or even the workers) it relies upon. Nor did we worry about its ability to endure that is, its sustainability.
Here are some ideas frequently discussed, but sadly not yet implemented that would make the growing, preparation and consumption of food healthier, saner, more productive, less damaging and more enduring.
As I reported last week, the USDA announced late Thursday it would allow the planting of genetically modified alfalfa, the nation's fourth-largest crop, without restriction. Was the decision based on a careful weighing of the evidence by the USDA -- or on political consideration emanating from the White House?
When organic farmer Michael O'Gorman read in 2006 that a disproportionate number of military veterans wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan came from America's rural communities, it was a call to action.
A country boy himself, he arranged a meeting with five other California farmers, and together they hatched a plan to recruit returning veterans for careers in the organic farming industry. Thus began the Farmer-Veteran Coalition, now based in Davis, an organization as committed to supporting the troops as they are to growing a new green economy. The coalition is hosting a seminar at the Ecological Farming Conference this week in Pacific Grove.
In the latest issue of the Journal of Dairy Science, a new study funded by the European Union compared the fat composition of retail milk produced through conventional methods and milk produced using an organic approach. The findings suggest that organic milk provides greater health benefits to humans than ordinary milk.
Specifically, the study indicated that organic milk has much higher concentrations of beneficial and nutritionally desirable fatty acids than milk from conventional production systems. Additionally, organic milk was found to contain lower levels of harmful saturated fat. Although the overall fat content was similar in both types of milk tested, the organic milk showed evidence of more "healthy" fats.

By Yannik on February 17, 2011
A different kind of toner
I never enjoyed toners before as I found they usually dried out my sensitive skin. Suki's Concentrated Nourishing Toner is different: This lovely mist actually hydrates my skin and enhances the absorption of my moisturizer or treatment. I also use it throughout the day to refresh my face.
By Carol on February 15, 2011
perfect for winter-dry skin
I was never much of a toner person until I tried Suki's line -- I alternate between the Nourishing toner in the winter as my skin gets drier, and the Balancing toner in the summer as my skin produces more oils. They are the perfect addition to my daily routine, prepping my skin for her lovely serums -- I know when I've skipped this step! Give them a try & you will be hooked.
By M.B. on October 4, 2011
Pure lovely-ness
The first few times I used this toner, it made my face feel a little tight but after about a week, my skin adjusted to the pure lovely-ness that is this product. The fragrance is delightfully invigorating and fresh and my skin had an extra glow.
By Katarina on August 10, 2012
Nice toner
Very nice toner with lovely ingredients. The only reason I´m not buying this all the time is that Suki's Balancing Toner is even better.
Directions for use
Mist directly onto face or spray onto a cotton pad and gently press onto skin.
