A recent sweepstake prize went up on Team Titleist, offering the opportunity for a TT member to caddy for Bernd Wiesberger in the Pro-Am of the BMW PGA Championship event at Wentworth.
The randomly selected winner was Christopher Barton!
Chris, from Hemel Hempstead was of course delighted when notified about the result. The sweepstake proved extremely popular so a big thank you to all of you who entered!
The start time on the day of the pro-am was 8am so it was certainly an early start for Chris, Bernd and his playing partners.
Chris was introduced to Bernd on the range by Team Titleist and away they went!
Chris was responsible for Bernd's bag throughout the round and had a great insight into Bernd, from a professional and personal level.
As you can see from the pictures and words of Chris, it was clearly an unforgettable experience.
Chris was presented with a signed Bernd Wiesberger Tour Bag after the round, by Bernd himself.
Bernd carried on the good form he showed in the pro-am by finishing the week at Wentworth in a very respectable T12.
Team Titleist would like to thank Bernd for being such great company for Chris and all his playing partners in the Pro-Am. He really is a fantastic Titleist ambassador. A big thank you to Chris also, and we do hope your right shoulder has recovered from carrying a heavy Tour Bag around the Wentworth!
Stay tuned to Team Titleist as we will continue to open up more sweepstake opportunities to our members.

The Titleist Tour Support Vehicle has brought us to the outskirts of Stockholm this week as players prepare for the Nordea Masters. The spectacular Bro Hoff Slott Golf Club plays host again, offering a firm test of golf set against one of the more beautiful stops on the European Tour.
Designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., the course, which opened in 2007, stretches out from a clubhouse that is actually a converted castle which dates back to 1888. The holes are well guarded by bunkers, thick rough and a great deal of water, which comes into play on 12 of the 18 holes (some holes on the back 9 even approach the fjords). This week the course will play to a par of 72 over a demanding 7,607 yards.
At the time of this writing, Titleist Brand Ambassador Matteo Manassero is picking up right where he left off last week, following the biggest win of his career at the BMW PGA Championship. The 20-year-old is the early clubhouse leader after firing a 6-under 66 in the opening round.
Also securing prominent positions near the top of the leaderboard are fellow Titleist Brand Ambassadors Chris Lloyd and Ricardo Santos, as well as Pro V1 loyalists Jamie Donaldson and Joost Luiten and Pro V1x loyalist Fredrik Andersson Hed. All of these players find themselves within two shots of the early mark set by Matteo.
If you have a chance to view any of the action this weekend, be sure to see how players fare at the signature, TPC-Sawgrass-inspired 17th hole. Like the famous 17th at The Players Championship, the 17th at Bro Hoff Slott Golf Club features an island green. At 150 yards in length, this hole may be the shortest on the golf course, but for any player protecting a lead on Sunday, a par at the 17th will be accompanied by a great sigh of relief.

Around the globe, among world-class competitors, three players trusting the performance of a Titleist golf ball triumphantly entered the winner's circle on Sunday.
Just a month removed from his 20th birthday, Titleist Brand Ambassador Matteo Manassero became the youngest player ever to win the prestigious BMW PGA Championship on the European Tour, doing it in dramatic fashion with a birdie on the fourth hole of a three-man playoff. In China, Pro V1x golf ball loyalist Li Chao topped two players by one shot, including Jin-Yong Jeong (Pro V1) of S. Korea to win the Yangjiang event on the China PGA Champions Tour. In Korea at the 1st Happiness Kwangju Bank Open, Kyung-Nam Kang relied upon his Pro V1 golf ball to post a dramatic eagle on the 71st hole to win by one shot.
With three more wins, Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x loyalists have now won 61 tournaments on the worldwide professional tours in 2013, nearly four times the nearest competitor with 16 and more than all other competitors combined.
This is Team Titleist, let's wrap-up the week…
• • •
EUROPEAN: BMW PGA Championship
Winner: Titleist Brand Ambassador Matteo Manassero
Trusting the Pro V1x golf ball and a full bag of Titleist equipment from tee-through-green, Manassero closed with a pair of 3-under par 69's on the weekend to join the playoff at 10-under par 278. The dramatic playoff victory at Wentworth Club marked Manassero's fourth career European Tour title, one each year since 2010 when he first won at age 17.
"It's been an amazing week. I have always felt something really special about this place and this tournament," said Manassero in an interview Sunday. "Everything has come together this week. I managed to play well and managed to stay in contention after a tough day on Friday and pulled it off with this play-off. I am the happiest man in the world right now."
Manassero topped a world-class field of 150 players at the BMW PGA Championship, 86 of whom relied upon a Titleist golf ball at one of the European Tour's most esteemed events. Year-to-date, Titleist golf ball loyalists have accounted for 12 wins through the first 19 events this year, four times the nearest competitor with 3.

POSTED: Thursday, March 22, 2012 - 2:30pm
UPDATED: Thursday, March 22, 2012 - 3:09pm
BATON ROUGE, LA — On Thursday, March 22, LSU, the LSU Rural Life Museum and L'Auberge Baton Rouge announced a partnership that will ensure the preservation of artifacts found on the former Chatsworth and Longwood Plantation properties.
L'Auberge Baton Rouge has reached an agreement with the university to give more than $1.3 million to the Rural Life Museum to oversee the archaeological preservation of significant artifacts recovered from the property on which L'Auberge Baton Rouge is being constructed.
Prior to construction, L'Auberge Baton Rouge completed an archaeological dig on the properties along River Road. The Rural Life Museum will complete an excavation on the properties, and will collect and analyze all artifacts found on the former plantation grounds. This project is also significant to the university, as LSU owns the south side of the Chatsworth Plantation property.
Chatsworth Plantation encompassed 575 acres of land along Nicholson Drive dating back to the 19th century. Until the 1780s, the property was the site of a Native American village. The two-story Greek revival Longwood Plantation home is located along River Road and was built in the late 18th century. It is one of only 18 antebellum structures left in Baton Rouge and was added to the National Registrar for Historic Places in 1983.
The partnership with L'Auberge Baton Rouge provides an opportunity for LSU and its Rural Life Museum to be involved in the preservation and interpretation of the nationally significant plantation sites. The addition of these artifacts will benefit the public, as well as the student body.
Currently, the Rural Life Museum curates more than 10,000 artifacts and historic buildings. These artifacts will add even more to the museum's already diverse collection, which is accessible to the public, scholars and researchers through cultural exhibitions, educational programs and publications.
"We thank L'Auberge Baton Rouge for approaching us with this project," said David Floyd, director of the Rural Life Museum. "The museum's collection has grown in large part due to the donations of individuals and companies who had the forethought to preserve historic pieces."
These artifacts will contribute to the classroom experience at LSU, as the museum also acts as a laboratory and classroom for history, geography, anthropology, architecture, landscape design and art departments. This partnership will also offer hands on opportunities for LSU students in the geography and anthropology and architecture departments to assist with the assigned projects alongside licensed professionals.
"We are pleased that our partnership with L'Auberge will help to preserve and study some of our city's unique history," said LSU Chancellor Michael Martin. "It's important for the university and local businesses to come together when opportunities like this one arise. We look forward to seeing what kinds of artifacts are recovered, and are excited that students will get to be involved in the process."
The mission of LSU's Rural Life Museum is to provide and sustain a publicly accessible center for the collection, preservation and interpretation of the material culture, cultural landscapes, and vernacular architecture of Louisiana and the Lower Mississippi River Valley. The Rural Life Museum adheres to the university's Flagship Agenda by committing itself to produce enlightened and engaged citizen leaders by fostering critical thinking, ethical reflection, technological prowess, historical understanding, and artistic and cultural appreciation.
"We are honored to be partnering with LSU and the Rural Life Museum to support our commitment in preserving the archaeological remains found on the L'Auberge Baton Rouge property," said Mickey Parenton, vice president and general manager of L'Auberge Baton Rouge. "The Rural Life Museum has an outstanding reputation, and we know they'll share these pieces of history with the public."
Work on completing the projects began in February 2012, and the work is expected to be completed in March 2014.

18 Apr Customer's got mail: Use effective email campaigns to gather valuable data
Marketing professionals know it's vital to have valuable information about their customers. If you fail to have contact details, product preferences, past purchasing histories and other pertinent data, you run a risk of not generating rewarding results. There are many ways in which marketers can collect data and use it for further initiatives, leading to greater customer retention and loyalty.
A study by TSYS revealed the top reason why companies want to collect data — something you should hammer out before embarking on data acquisition campaigns — is to build their brand. The second reason is for the data to boost their existing and current campaigns, and the third reason is to better understand customers. If you know what your goals and missions are before reaching out to gather information, you have clear cut visions in mind to collect the most effective data.
Go digital
While traditional mailings and other established forms of marketing have been successful for years, consumers are increasingly going online. You need to target individuals through this channel to get valuable consumer information. The first step begins with gathering customer email addresses. That's the easy part. Moving Targets writes that you can ask for this information during face-to-face interactions with customers, through inquiry pages on your website, posting response cards in stores, at conferences and other places customers may see them.
Once you have email addresses (along with individuals' names and basic details), then comes the task of crafting messages that are relevant to customers' wants and needs. This content needs to be personalized or you could run into problems. Generic information that doesn't speak to people as individuals can turn consumers off from your brand. Incorporate elements based on past purchases, preferred products and services in addition to demographic factors like gender and age. Think of it is turning away from reaching out to customers as a group, and instead speaking to individuals.
Az Business magazine writes that once email campaigns have been launched, the data acquisition process doesn't stop. You now have access to a plethora of information pertaining to who has opened emails, what the click rates are, which customers have taken advantage of coupons and discounts and many other details that can be incorporated into future messages.
By gathering customer data for email marketing purposes and strategically using it for both your advantage as well as that of individuals, you can create successful email campaigns that interact, entice and encourage customers to do business with your brand.

Active Standard: D3716 - 14
Developed by Subcommittee: D21.03 | Committee D21 | Contact Staff Manager
1. Rationale
Section F4.3.2 of the Form and Style of ASTM Standards states that a product supplier may be identified in a standard only when there is a single supplier. Section 7.1.3 identifies a specific supplier and apparatus model for use with D3716. Brookfield Engineering, the identified supplier, was a sole source for the required apparatus when the standard was first published. However, today a number of suppliers (see appended list) provide equivalently performing apparatus. It is proposed that standard D3716-99 be revised to reflect a generic apparatus description and procedure suitable to instruments offered by several suppliers.

"I've got a bad feeling about this," Nappier said.
After the first day on the road, the Seabees made camp at an abandoned train station. Unable to sleep, Nappier and Petty Officer Chris Dickerson spent the night snooping around the place. They came across the old ticket windows and forgotten freight cars. By morning, they were covered in grease and soot from crawling through a bombed-out locomotive. Both men had spent much of their adult lives tinkering with engines. Back home in Eastman, Georgia, 33-year-old Dickerson spent weekends keeping a '67 Chevy Chevelle in pristine condition. His father had given it to him at high school graduation. In Iraq, he saw little to admire. He called his father, Jeffrey Dickerson, just before they left on the convoy. "Dad, this is a dirty country," Dickerson said by satellite phone. "Everything here stinks like you wouldn't believe."
The next afternoon, the convoy reached its destination, a Marine base on the Syrian border, where they unloaded supplies until well past dark. With a couple of hours of sleep, they headed out the next morning, April 30. The exhausted men had to remain constantly alert for insurgents. Bombed-out vehicles were everywhere along the road, sitting like memorials to previous attacks. Gunners atop Humvees scrutinized each one closely for hiding insurgents waiting to lob homemade bombs into windows. Unable to use both hands to mix coffee, some poured instant coffee directly into their mouths to stay alert.
Just miles from Junction City, the convoy entered a town appropriately named Hit, a hot spot of insurgent attacks on IED Alley. It was almost 9 p.m., and the sun had begun to set across the desert. Hit was largely an industrial park on the edge of Ar Ramadi. The Americans called it "Trucker Town" for the tractor-trailers parked along the road for service. When they had passed through on their way to the Syrian border, it had been abuzz with mechanics and workers. Now, it was empty. The men wondered if the workers had quit for the day or if something more sinister was going on. If insurgents arrive in an area, it's common for civilians to flee.
The convoy crept along. At the controls of the lead vehicle was Petty Officer Henry del Valle, a Florida Division of Forestry ranger from Miami. Initially, del Valle wasn't supposed to be in the convoy, let alone manning the most dangerous spot, the point position. When the men volunteered for the convoys, 33-year-old del Valle had been assigned to handle radio operations at headquarters. But when the Seabees reached Iraq, the battalion needed more drivers than anticipated.
Del Valle wanted to be in the action, though driving into Trucker Town that night, he couldn't help remembering his wife back home. She was pregnant with twins and taking care of their five-year-old daughter. Thinking of his unborn sons had been his motivating force in Iraq, even while the convoy entered one of the country's most dangerous spots.
Driving behind del Valle was Dickerson, whose uniform was still covered in soot from the train station. Above him at the gun turret was Petty Officer Michael Rambo of Clearwater. Rambo, a 28-year-old pharmacy technician, scanned Trucker Town for signs of insurgents. He spotted a white pickup speeding on a parallel road behind the industrial complex. As the convoy neared the end of Trucker Town, the pickup darted onto a side road and sped between del Valle and Dickerson.
The driver jumped out of the pickup, and something exploded -- either a roadside bomb or perhaps a grenade planted by the man. Almost simultaneously, a rocket blasted into Dickerson's Humvee, smashing through the windshield and tearing through Dickerson's neck and shoulder, killing him instantly. The weapon passed inches from Rambo's legs and continued out the Humvee's back window.
Seconds later a third explosion ripped the first Humvee again. Shrapnel shredded the vehicle, which lacked updated armor. Thirty-one-year-old Petty Officer Jason Dwelley of Apopka, a passenger in that vehicle, died from that blast. Henry del Valle, sitting in front of Dwelley, took a chunk of shrapnel to the back of the head. It pierced his helmet and tore a hole in his skull. His vehicle rolled to a stop as he went in and out of consciousness. He was losing blood, and the color drained from his face.
Rambo fired into the pickup, killing the passenger. Officers spilled out of the other vehicles. They called for a helicopter to evacuate del Valle, who many assumed would die before the choppers arrived. The sun set, leaving the rundown industrial park hidden in shadows. Iraqis began darting between buildings.
"It's like we stuck a stick in a beehive," Nappier said.
As Nappier manned his gun turret, he watched an Iraqi walk casually through the industrial park carrying a package. The man dropped it off at a building and walked away. Seconds later, gunfire erupted from a window. It was indicative of the imperfect rules of engagement in Iraq. Unless Iraqis pointed a gun at the convoy, the Americans could not shoot at them preemptively. The men sometimes watched insurgents set up roadside bombs, unable to shoot until after they exploded.

Ashburn Man Pleads Guilty to Ponzi Scheme Involving Purchase of Beacon Hill Golf Course
ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Brett A. Amendola, 37, of Ashburn, Va., pled guilty today to defrauding more than $3.8 million from investors through a Ponzi scheme involving his purported purchase of a golf course in Loudoun County, Va.
Neil H. MacBride, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia; James W. McJunkin, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI's Washington Field Office; and Michael L. Chapman, Loudoun County Sheriff, made the announcement after the plea was accepted by United States District Judge Gerald Bruce Lee.
Amendola pled guilty today to wire fraud and faces a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison when he is sentenced on June 29, 2012.
According to a statement of facts filed with his plea agreement, during 2010 and 2011, Amendola persuaded various investors to provide him with short-term funding that would be held in escrow to fulfill a requirement by his lender to purchase the Beacon Hill Golf Course in Loudoun County. He promised that the money would be returned to the investors – with interest – in a matter of days. In reality, Amendola diverted the investors' money to his own use, including funding his and family members' trading accounts, making payments to investors in this and other schemes, and paying for personal expenses.
To carry out his fraud, Amendola posed as the attorney representing the escrow account both over the phone and through various email messages, leading investors to believe that they were wiring funds to financial accounts controlled by the escrow attorney, when in reality the financial accounts were controlled by Amendola and quickly looted for his personal use.
This case was investigated by the FBI's Washington Field Office and the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office. Assistant United States Attorney James P. Gillis is prosecuting the case on behalf of the United States.

Broadcasting Notice of Consultation CRTC 2012-126
Broadcasting Decision 2012-485
Privacy and Security
Completed Access to Information Requests
Proactive Disclosure
OTTAWA-GATINEAU, September 11, 2012 — Today, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) granted a licence to Rock 95 Broadcasting, allowing it to launch a new radio station to serve the Toronto market at 88.1 FM. Rock 95 will offer an English-language music format with a focus on independent and emerging Canadian artists. Forty per cent of the music featured on the new station will be Canadian musical selections, of which at least 60 per cent will be from emerging artists.
"Even in the age of digital media, Canadian artists who do not have major-label support face a tough road to success. Rock 95's station will give much-needed radio exposure to those artists and listeners will have an opportunity to discover new talent," said Leonard Katz, the CRTC's Vice-Chairman of Telecommunications and Chair of the hearing panel. "We received some very compelling applications, but could only award one licence."
Following a call for applications, the CRTC considered 22 proposals for the use of 88.1 FM in the Toronto market. The applications were analyzed according to the following criteria:
The CRTC also granted a licence to Bhupinder Bola for the use of 105.9 FM in Markham. The new station will offer ethnic programming with a contemporary and alternative music format.
Today's decisions follow a proceeding that included a public hearing, which was held from May 7 to 16, 2012 in Toronto.
Broadcasting Decision 2012-485
Broadcasting Decision 2012-486

Dock wages or else, says Vic watchdog
PUBLISHED: 04 Jul 2012 00:01:52 | UPDATED: 04 Jul 2012 03:05:25PUBLISHED: 03 Jul 2012 PRINT EDITION: 04 Jul 2012Mathew Dunckley
Victoria's new construction industry watchdog has warned businesses they may be banned from government projects if they fail to apply the full force of the law, including docking pay, against workers taking part in illegal industrial action today.
Nigel Hadgkiss, inaugural head of the Victorian government's Construction Code Compliance Unit (CCCU) which officially began its work this week, faces an immediate challenge to his authority when workers walk off sites in Melbourne to attend a union-sponsored protest rally against the new regime.
Mr Hadgkiss said employers that did not abide by the law covering illegal strikes faced action from his unit to prevent them winning government work, on top of possible legal sanctions from the federal Fair Work Building and Construction agency (FWBC).
Asked if companies should dock pay for those illegally attending the rally, he said: "I would expect them to and I would hope that they do."
Trades Hall Council secretary Brian Boyd said unions had expressly urged workers to ignore a public warning that they should seek permission to attend the rally. "We are asking them to defy the FWBC," he said.
Mr Boyd said the protest was targeted specifically at Mr Hadgkiss and the "draconian" new code.
He accused Mr Hadgkiss of pursuing "unfinished business" because prosecutions had collapsed near the end of his tenure at the Australian Building and Construction Commissioner (ABCC).
Mr Hadgkiss refused to say if his staff would monitor today's protest, but said he would seek answers from contractors if workers from government sites were involved.
"It would be incumbent on us to seek clarification from employers as to what, if any, action they had taken. What transpires on Wednesday will obviously be of interest to both agencies (the CCCU and the FWBC)," he told The Australian Financial Review.
The state government set up Mr Hadgkiss's unit to monitor its new construction code partly in response to the federal government's abolition of the ABCC. It seeks to emulate the Howard government's policy of using its purchasing power to force "cultural change" on building sites following strife on projects such as the West Gate bridge.
The unit's investigators can interview contractors, demand documents and enter sites of companies tendering for Victorian government work.
Mr Hadgkiss warned he would take a dim view of obstruction. "If they [companies] fail to co-operate in any fashion . . . we would have to take a serious thought as to their propensity to tender for government work in the future," he said.
Victoria had not shaken its reputation for having the worst building site culture in the country, he said. "I've been out of the state for 3 ½ years . . . in NSW, but certainly it's fair to say that there is concern in a number of quarters about lawlessness," he said.
Mr Hadgkiss, a former deputy commissioner at the ABCC, said other states had already signalled they were interested in following Victoria's lead.
"I have had both government and industry associations from interstate from day one interested in how these guidelines are being implemented and watching progress," he said.
Union sources have questioned the unit's ability to force change given its commercially focused remit and its inability to punish companies for behaviour that breaches the new code but is permitted under existing industrial agreements. Most of Victoria's largest builders are covered by an enterprise agreement that runs until 2015.
"It would be coercion for us to force those parties to change their agreement," Mr Hadgkiss said.
"We are looking for a discernable change in behaviour if there are currently abhorrent behaviours taking place on their work sites."
Asked to identify the sorts of behaviours he was concerned about, he nominated freedom of association, site entry and "abuse of safety".
"Certainly my experience at the ABCC . . . of safety being used as a trigger for industrial action and the purported safety allegation was no more than a ruse," he said.
To qualify for government work, Victorian construction firms need to comply with the rules not only on taxpayer funded projects but also on any private sites. Mr Hadgkiss said the prospect of disqualification from public tenders was a powerful motivator particularly for publicly listed companies.
"In my experience certainly at the ABCC I found that contractors had more concern about the propensity to tender or otherwise in the future for government work than they were with complying with the law," he said.
He would work, in the first instance, with companies to address breaches and only use sanctions as a "last resort".
"I'm looking for cultural change; cultural change doesn't come like the flicking of a light switch," he said. "Ultimately there are only so many warnings one can give . . . if there is no willingness or discernible change, then I am left with no choice but to recommend to the minister that that entity be sanctioned."
Mr Hadgkiss said he intended to make recommendations to the minister on the extent of the sanction. The Victorian guidelines were designed to complement their Commonwealth equivalent, he said. He batted away suggestions the new FWBC was less able to pursue law-breaking, saying he was "extremely happy" that the federal body wanted to work in a "collaborative and co-operative spirit".
He also insisted he had a "reasonable rapport" with "most unions". "On the whole I had a good relationship with senior officials, with some exceptions," he said.
"Certain people, when they are being continually prosecuted, it is difficult to maintain good rapport. There is a huge role for unions in the workplace provided they act responsibly and in the interests of their membership, not their personal interests or personal agendas."
Under Victoria's system, the onus will fall on the biggest construction companies, as head contractors, to ensure sites are run correctly. "Ultimately they are the party that will be sanctioned," he said. "If there is an unwillingness to rectify abhorrent conduct, I'm really left with no choice but to recommend sanction."
Mr Hadgkiss said he expected head contractors to manage the industrial conduct of sub-contractors through usual commercial terms.
"There is an expectation that they will have a firm expectation that their sub-contractors will comply with these new guidelines. How they go about that . . . that's a matter for them. It is a matter for the contractors to have their houses in order."
The former federal policeman said he had focused recruitment on people with law enforcement experience. "It's not an occupation for the faint-hearted," he said.
The government will also try to restrict the use of project agreements that cover whole sites.
Victorian Finance Minister Robert Clark said the new unit would lead to greater productivity and lower building costs. "The Coalition government is leading by example by promoting and requiring appropriate workplace arrangements and practices when it selects firms under the tenders for government contracts," he said.

Atwood Oceanics Announces Contract For The Atwood Advantage
HOUSTON, Sept. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Atwood Oceanics, Inc. (NYSE: ATW) announced today that one of its subsidiaries has been awarded a drilling services contract for the Atwood Advantage by a subsidiary of Noble Energy Inc. (NYSE: NBL) for a worldwide program commencing in the Eastern Mediterranean. The Atwood Advantage is a 12,000 foot water depth capable, dynamically positioned drillship currently under construction at Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering ("DSME") shipyard in South Korea. The agreement specifies an operating rate of approximately $584,000 per day and a firm duration of three years, exclusive of the mobilization period from DSME to the first drilling location.
The Atwood Advantage is scheduled to be delivered from the DSME shipyard in September 2013, after which it will mobilize for a period of approximately eighty days to its first location in the Eastern Mediterranean. This contract adds $639 million in revenue backlog, bringing Atwood's total revenue backlog to approximately $2.9 billion as of October 1, 2012.
Rob Saltiel, Atwood's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are extremely pleased to be working with Noble Energy with the Atwood Advantage. Our companies have enjoyed a long and productive working relationship, and this agreement exemplifies the spirit of collaboration that exists between our companies. Atwood is committed to providing outstanding drilling service to Noble Energy with our state-of-the-art drillship, and we are proud to have been selected for this important drilling program."
Atwood Oceanics, Inc. is an international offshore drilling contractor engaged in the drilling and completion of exploratory and developmental oil and gas wells. The company currently owns 11 mobile offshore drilling units and is constructing two ultra-deepwater drillships and two high-specification jackups for deliveries in 2012, 2013 and 2014. The company was founded in 1968 and is headquartered in Houston, Texas. Atwood Oceanics, Inc. common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "ATW."

These statements reflect management's reasonable judgment with respect to future events. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties and assumptions and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated as a result of various factors including: uncertainties related to the level of activity in offshore oil and gas exploration and development; oil and gas prices; competition and market conditions in the contract drilling industry; the risks inherent in the construction of a rig; delays in the commencement of operations of a rig following delivery; our ability to enter into and the terms of future contracts; possible cancellation or suspension of drilling contracts; the availability of qualified personnel; labor relations; operating hazards and risks; terrorism and political and other uncertainties inherent in foreign operations (including risk of war, civil disturbances, seizure or damage to equipment and exchange and currency fluctuations); the impact of governmental and industry laws and regulations; and environmental matters. These factors and others are described and discussed in our most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K, in our Forms 10-Q for subsequent periods and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission which are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

COOL VIDEO ALERT: Mike Keneally – "I'm Raining Here Inside"
Check out the video for "I'm Raining Here Inside" from Mike Keneally's new album Wing Beat Fantastic, featuring songs co-written with XTC's Andy Partridge.
Back in 1998 I was in second year at university and my listening diet basically consisted of Mike Keneally's Sluggo, XTC's Skylarking and Devin Townsend's Ocean Machine. )(Okay, add of Dream Theater's Awake too, which had already been out for four years by that point but which I'd finally got my own copy of instead of nicking my brothers' all the time). So the combination of Keneally and Partridge writing songs together is like a bizarre mash-up of a particular period of my life. This song sounds great and I can't wait for my copy of the album to arrive.
You can buy the album here.
REVIEW: Sonoma Wire Works GuitarJack Model 2
The iPad is the perfect practice tool for guitarists. Because it instantly becomes whichever app you load, it can be a warehouse full of amps, a fully-featured demo studio, a TAB reader and writer, a guitar synth, a scale library, and probably a whole bunch of other thing we haven't even envisioned yet. But most of these functions are useless with a guitar signal entering the iPad. There are plenty of interfaces for guitar out there, and they all seem to operate in different ways. Some are simple and inexpensive, while others are a bit more pro-spec. That's where the GuitarJack Model 2 comes in.

COOL GEAR ALERT: Ibanez RG2XXV
Alright, I'm an Ibanez geek. Sure, I own and love other guitars, but Ibanii still outnumber all of them. My RG550s are great workhorses, my RG seven-strings are brilliant instruments, and my Talman TC825 is killer. So forgive me if I gaze longingly at this beauty: the new RG2XXV, part of Ibanez's 25th Anniversary celebrations for the RG as we know and love it today (there were RG models prior to this but they looked very different: the line was redeveloped alongside the development of the Jem and announced in 1987).
The RG2XXV is less expensive than the RG1XXV announced earlier in the year. It features Ibanez INF pickups, an Edge Zero II bridge, basswood body, three-piece maple neck, rosewood fretboard with jumbo frets, coloured dot inlays, a Wizard III neck shape and DR coated strings. It's available in Fluorescent Pink and Fluorescent yellow.

Happy birthday, Fender's Ensenada factory!
ENSENADA, Baja California (July 23, 2012) – Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (FMIC) celebrated the 25th anniversary of its factory in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico, on Friday, July 20. "We are very proud to have reached such a significant milestone," said Sergio Villanueva, senior vice president, global manufacturing, for Fender Musical Instruments Corporation. "The level of craftsmanship produced in this factory is a testament to its success." More than 1000 guests, including local dignitaries, company executives and factory employees, commemorated the facility's 25-year anniversary with spectacular fireworks displays, live mariachi music, performances by Escuelita Fender, Grupo Fandango, and the popular Norteño band Intocable.
More Seymour Duncan EMTY 7-string info
The other day I posted about Seymour Duncan's new 7-string version of Slipknot guitarist Mick Thomson's EMTY Blackouts signature active humbuckers. Here's a little more cool news: the 7-string version is available in both Phase I and Phase II versions. Both have the same sound, but the Phase I model is a direct retrofit for most passive 7-string humbuckers including those by Seymour Duncan and DiMarzio, while Phase II Blackouts are a direct retrofit for the EMG 707 humbucker. I know a lot of I Heart Guitar readers are seven-stringers like myself, so dig in!

Whether it's vintage death metal with Carcass, hard rock with Spiritual Beggars or his main job in Arch Enemy, Amott has the ears, hands and sense of sonic taste to craft the perfect sound for whatever musical situation he finds himself in. After flings with guitars like the Ibanez RG550 and his former ESP signature model the Ninja, Amott is now a Dean endorser, with his own line of signature guitars. And central to the tone of this imposing axe is the DMT Tyrant, Amott's signature humbucker from Dean's pickup division, Dean Magnetic Technologies. Amott was kind enough to arrange for a Tyrant humbucker to be sent out for review after I interviewed him recently.
New Vai pickups: DiMarzio Gravity Storm
Steve Vai's new album The Story Of Light is out in August, and quite frankly it's stunning. I've been able to hear the whole thing and there's something in there for every Vai fan, but especially those who like the more expressive and compositional aspects of his playing.
Steve has a new set of signature pickups coming out shortly, the DiMarzio Gravity Storm set (named after a song on the new album). They appear to be quite different from his previous six-string pickups (the Evolution set, the Evo 2 and the Breed set).
The bridge pickup weighs in at an output of 340mV and a DC resistance of 15.19Kohms, and it has an Alnico V magnet like the Breed, rather than a ceramic magnet like the Evolution and Evo 2. The neck pickup has a ceramic magnet, an output of 290mV and a DC resistance of 12.56Kohms.
Stay tuned for availability info!
REVIEW: Roger Mayer Voodoo TC Octavia
The Octavia is a classic yet mysterious effect, and one that's particularly hard to describe with the written word. It produces an overtone an octave above whatever you play, but it doesn't sound like a harmonizer or a 12-string guitar. Instead, imagine fuzz combined with the sound that you hear when you run your finger around the rim of a crystal wine glass, except the pitch of the glass follows that of the guitar. It can be hauntingly beautiful when combined with a clean tone or it can add a harmonic, fixed-wah-like quality to distorted ones.
The Voodoo TC Octavia is Roger Mayer's latest iteration of his historic invention. The intention is very much the same as when Jimi Hendrix used Mayer's Octavia on "Purple Haze" and "Fire," but the Voodoo TC range offers many advantages. Continue reading
INTERVIEW: Ben Fulton of Red Witch
Red Witch pedals seemed to spring up out of nowhere a few years ago, commanding attention with their unique features and world class tone. The Empress Chorus, for instance, is very highly regarded. But years and years of work have gone into establishing Red Witch. Recently the company unveiled the Seven Sisters series of mini pedals, and there are more innovations on the horizon. Join us as we pick the brain of Red Witch founder Ben Fulton.
Tell us about the history of the company.
Red Witch Analog was formed about ten years ago. Initially it was just me in the garage building guitar pedals. We started out with the Moon Phaser, and the decision to start a company making guitar pedals was born out of me making a few pedals for myself. I'd worked as a solo acoustic musician for three or four years prior to starting the company and a friend had asked me to join a rock band. I'd sold all of my electric guitar stuff, so I needed an amplifier. My girlfriend bought me an amp to use and it needed some work, so I basically immersed myself in the study of electronics in order to be able to repair and improve the amplifier.

It has been three months since our last peek into the internet culture of video gaming memes with our last outing back in January taking a look at the top five memes for Half-Life. So what game have I chosen this time? Let's take a look at some Dark Souls memes.
5. Surprise treasure
One trope found in many video games is that of the mimic; an enemy or hazard that has disguised itself to look like something worth grabbing. Dark Souls doesn't let this opportunity pass by to scare the crap out of players with turning an ordinary looking chest into a knight-gobbling monstrosity.
4. Reverse psychology?
We're often told by the media that video games corrupt children's minds, which could be true considering this meme, but only when they manage to get their hands on mature-rated titles such as Dark Souls. This is also a piece of information that players have to work out themselves while playing, in lieu of a the typical hand holding tutorial found in most games.
3. Random derps
Ah yes, the random internet derp willing to ruin your game in many different and creative ways. Instead of smiting you with their ridiculously overpowered weaponry they kindly take the pressure off you for a moment, leaving you free to jump into that inconveniently placed ravine.
2. Consider me guilty of this
I'm more than qualified to discuss this particular meme after I jumped off the tower repeatedly to defeat the Taurus Demon while most skilled players took him head-on and fell off of the bridge. Can we be forgiven for using cheap tactics after being defeated many times using the normal approach? If the answer is a 'no' then you may be one of the very small percent of Dark Souls players skilled enough to beat it legitimately.
1. Welcome and rest in peace
Kim knows all too well about this first boss and introduction to Dark Souls after taking him on many times already. Check out her write-up of the first boss battle to hear more about the frustration and eventual satisfaction from defeating the Asylum Demon for the first time. Countless numbers of players have entered this arena stumbling around the fragile pots while trying to consume Estus Flasks and avoiding the fatal swings from our big bellied friend. In terms of a tutorial it definitely introduces you to the difficulty of Dark Souls and the need to find those cheap tactics to get past enemies without dying constantly.
This concludes yet another look at the top 5 memes for one of the toughest games out there, we're always on the look out for new memes to make up our next post so please let us know of any you come across in the comments section below.

Scarlet Fever |
photo size: small | high
The classic scarlet fever rash initially appears as tiny red papules on the chest and abdomen. Papules may then spread over the body. The rash resembles sunburn, feels like rough sandpaper, and lasts about 2 to 5 days.

You're saying that I can't possibly know that Gaia is hurting, but honestly, How can you not?
When a business, a show, a store, etcetera begins to fail, they take drastic actions, it's called jumping the shark.
Gaia jumped the shark. You ******** watched it.
Sure, one or two morons asked for everything, there were people who wanted the halo released, but not in any significant numbers. There are people who will always want everything, and then they want it for free, on top of that.
You all saw Gaia jump the shark, the re-released the halo, they literally said 'we need money so bad, we're selling an item for $1,000, please, please buy it so we don't have to fire Reapersun.'
You honestly think they'd sell an item for that much if they didn't need to?
What's more sad, Gaia selling the Halo/their word as a business, or the people who shelled out $1,000 for it?
There's no excuse for spending a thousand dollars on pixels.. That's just wrong.. and sad..

There has been a long lasting problem of collation in MySQL for Croatian language – it was impossible. When, at that time, Yugoslavian keyboard layout was invented, it was designed to cover all the languages from all republics. It covered all Slovenian characters (plus couple of characters that they don't have), but not all Croatian (it missed 'nj', 'lj' and 'dž'). When Yugoslavia fall apart, all the republics just took already wide spread Yugoslav layout. For Slovenian layout, that was great, with exception of including characters they didn't have. For Croatian and Serbian latin, well, not that great…
You see, now we type letter 'nj' as a combination of 'n' and 'j'. Same thing with 'lj' and 'dž'. That wouldn't be that bad if every word, containing 'l' or 'n' and 'j' together would be pronounced as 'lj' or 'nj'. For example, we have two words that we write the same (injekcija), but pronounce different. In one case with say it with 'nj', and in the other as 'n' and 'j'. Talking about the bad choice of deciding to use 'nj' as a character for that letter. There are also examples of 'dž'.
As you can see, until we put 'lj' and 'nj' characters on the keyboard, we will never have correct sorting in any database. Good news is that those characters exists in Unicode and that's why we have 'hr unicode' layout in Xorg. Too bad nobody uses it.
Until that's sorted out, I'm happy to announce that MariaDB/MySQL just accepted a patch that makes possible contracting non-ascii characters, meaning that we can now have sorting rules for 'dž' (more about that at http://www.collation-charts.org/articles/croatian.htm). As a result, utf8_croatian_ci and ucs2_croatian_ci collations were created and added to MariaDB 5.1 and MySQL 5.6. Since Alexander Barkov was so kind and provided a patch for MySQL 5.1, I've created packages for Ubuntu. I've also modified that patch so that it works with MySQL 5.0. If you need this feature, go add my PPA to your sources.list:
It's important to realize that this patch contains very intrusive change in collation mechanism, so it's not just a patch for Croatian collation. People from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Monte Negro and Serbia (latin) can also use this collation for their languages. It does not cover all problems ('injekcija' and 'injekcija' for example), but at least words starting with dž won't be at the end of the sort :)
Big thanks to MariaDB community!

ampere (ām'pîr') Pronunciation Key
The SI unit used to measure electric current. Electric current through any given cross-section (such as a cross-section of a wire) may be measured as the amount of electrical charge moving through that cross-section in one second. One ampere is equal to a flow of one coulomb per second, or a flow of 6.28 × 1018 electrons per second. |
Ampère (ām'pîr', äm-pěr') Pronunciation Key
French mathematician and physicist who is best known for his analysis of the relationship between magnetic force and electric current. He formulated Ampère's law, which describes the strength of the magnetic field produced by the flow of energy through a conductor. The ampere unit of electric current is named for him. |

State Media Reports Powerful Meteorite Explosion in Cuba
On the same day that the world was rocked by news of a meteorite soaring over Russia and causing numerous injuries, the country's old Caribbean ally – Cuba – reported its own cosmic appearance, with startled residents describing a bright light in the sky and a loud explosion that shook windows and walls. There were no reports of any injuries or damage such as those caused by the Russia meteorite, which sent out shockwaves that hurt some 1,200 people and shattered countless windows.
In a VIDEO from a state TV newscast posted on the website CubaSi late Friday, unidentified residents of the central city of Rodas, near Cienfuegos, said the explosion was impressive….

Time to bump this up for 13-14!
Kimberley was epic, very few people and waist deep powder in many runs. Close runs are little chopped up now but still great stashes to be found when we left Sunday. Bitterly cold though, -29 and -27 in the mornings over the weekend. I think I was crippled from the sheer amount of powder leg burn, second day I was just bailing instead of using proper techniques.

The Blue Jays opened the lead up to 10 points with seven minutes to go, but the Red Devils snuck back and grabbed lead heading into halftime. The Blue Jays ended the half down 34-31.
The battle continued in the second half between the two teams, but a jumper from senior Hannah Kloster (Springfield, Mo. / Parkview) put the Blue Jays back on top with 12 minutes left in the game. Kloster finished with a team-high 18 points.
Free throws from Luff and freshmen Mackenzie Haddox (St. Francis Borgia / Washington, Mo.) sealed the Blue Jay victory with seconds remaining in the game. Haddox added 14 points to the victory.

Convert pdf to office files (& vice versa)silentcon - May 3, 2010 - 3:21am
I need to convert a pdf to an excel .xls file. I tried Zamzar but it didn't convert it properly. It would be better if it integrates in MS office. ( categories: )
it makes me wonder why people ask this question again and again.... cause PDF is not designed to be edited or converted back to another format. PDF is designed to publish dokuments for printing or viewing on different machines and not for editing. That's why there will be never ever any tools who will be able to convert PDF-files 100 percent to editable format. It's allways better to use the source document, so please ask the author for it and this will save You a lot of time. A so called PDF-converter or editor is good for changing some line or grap some content but not for complex tasks like changig a lot of strings or entries. You are able to create PDF files from the most office formats with OpenOffice.org Portable. There is a PDF import tool for it too, but it will import to draw only and as told before, it is not recommended. Paid for Software more or less? Payware for conversion from pdf to txt, xls and docThere exists - to my knowledge - only one closed source software (not too expensive) which may help. But as Marko points out it is not guaranteed that it works always 100 % correct. I use it myself to extract the abovementioned files out of pictures. So it works with pfd-files displayed on your screen. It is ABBYY Screenshot Reader. Peter just wonderhow does any such 'graphic' to xls convert finds out what the numbers or contents of cells mean, what is the formula behind it and how they are related to each other..)) Otto Sykora Additional Step RequiredYou have to scan in a math e-book and teach it math first, then it works. Online SolutionI've Used PDF To Excel Online on a number of occassions and been ha[[y with results. Give it a go PortableApps.com Advocate Sorry but it didn't work andSorry but it didn't work and all i got was a blank excel file. Tried NitroPDF trial. Got the numbers. I also tried OCR and it also worked. Try PDF Converter PROI own a copy of PDF Converter Pro(note the phrase "own" - this product is commercialware) which, if the PDF is made from the native file, will 99% of the time convert files back to the Word or Excel format. As previous commentors have noted though, the Excel conversion will contain only numbers not formula's since you are basically printing a file to a "PDF Printer." |

Re: the unofficial '10 NBA playoffs thread
and the suns response-
The Phoenix Suns have reacted with a collective smirk to Phil Jackson's suggestion that Steve Nash travels with the basketball.
Nash even had a subtle retort worthy of Jackson himself.
"It's news to me. I'm fortunate. I don't know if I've been called for a carry yet," he said after the Suns practiced Saturday, then he added straight-faced: "I've never heard anyone accuse me of carrying it. I mean, the best coach in the league Gregg Popovich (of San Antonio) didn't have a problem with it last week."
Get it? Popovich the best coach in the league?
"We have the best officials in the world," Nash continued. "I'll just leave it up to them."
Phoenix coach Alvin Gentry laughed off the accusation.
"You guys got to admire Phil," Gentry said. "C'mon, the stuff that he throws out there, I mean I think it's great. He's very creative. There's a reason. But I think you've got to understand that there's kind of a method to his madness. If you let it affect you, then it will."
He said the Suns weren't going to get drawn into what they consider Jackson's psychological ploy.
"How can we win that?" Gentry said. "We're not going to win that battle anyway."
But the Phoenix coach added a jab at the Lakers when he was asked jokingly if the team worked on ball handling skills.
"We spent the day ducking elbows on post-ups, to see if we could duck elbows on post-ups, " Gentry said, a not-to-thinly veiled nod to the Lakers' style. "So it all works out, it all works out."
Amare Stoudemire probably spoke for the rest of the team with his reaction.
"Typical Phil," he said.
