Though his team struggled to beat a winless program in its last game, coach Mark Few was happy Gonzaga fought through a tough test. Maybe that's because he knows a few more could lie ahead in the near future.
The 13th-ranked Bulldogs' first matchup with a major conference opponent -- one which nearly upset them a year ago -- comes at home Thursday night against Washington State before they head to Hawaii for three games in three days.That stretch is part of the Maui Invitational, starting Monday against Dayton before potentially facing Top 25 opponents Baylor and Syracuse in the ensuing rounds.Gonzaga (3-0) began the tournament with a home game Sunday against an Oakland team which dressed only eight players and entered 0-3, including two losses to ranked foes by a combined 54 points. The Bulldogs had beaten Bryant and Colorado State by 56 and were up 21 at halftime of both games.They led by no more than 12 in the first half against the Golden Grizzlies, and the advantage was down to eight with less than eight minutes to play before pulling out an 82-67 victory."That was good for us," Few said. "That's a really tough, hard-nosed team. ... They pushed us and challenged us and our guys responded and kept their composure and ended up getting it done."That's just what the Bulldogs did last season at Washington State (2-0). Kevin Pangos drove the length of the court and hit a layup with two seconds left to give Gonzaga a 71-69 victory last Dec. 5."Last year compared to this year, there's really not a big difference as far as how we're going to match up with them," Cougars coach Kevin Bone said.However, his team won't have to deal with Elias Harris or Kelly Olynyk, who combined for 45 points in last season's thriller.Pangos shot 2 for 12 that night but is coming off his best performance of this season, hitting five 3-pointers and scoring 21 points Sunday despite having to briefly leave the game."I just got kneed in the head and was in pain for a little bit," Pangos said. "It kind of woke me up, I guess."Fellow junior guard Gary Bell Jr. tops Gonzaga with 17.3 points per game, hitting 13 of 21 from 3-point range, and will square off again with good friend and fellow Tacoma area native DaVonte Lacy. Lacy is averaging 24.5 points and scored 22 last season against Gonzaga while Bell had 14."I'm assuming they'll be going head-to-head against each other quite a bit, just like last year," Bone said.Lacy had 21 points and hit three 3s in the second half to help Washington State defeat Lamar 84-64 on Saturday in its most recent game.This will be the Cougars' first game on the road, where they were 1-9 last season. They went 1-6 against ranked foes but did win the last one, 73-61 over UCLA on March 6.Washington State has won three of the past seven meetings in this annual, in-state rivalry."We have a lot of respect for (Gonzaga) and what they've done with their program, and again this year they've put together a great team," Bone said. "It's fun to go challenge yourself in sports against the best. At this point, they're the best team we've played."SPONSORED HEADLINES

AP Photo/Elise AmendolaCeltics captain Paul Pierce offered support to Big Three companion Kevin Garnett.
Celtics captain Paul Pierce made a pitch for Garnett's return by emphasizing what he's meant to him and the team over the past five seasons.
"Well, he's been everything for my career," said Pierce. "Just his locker room presence, his desire, his determination, his leadership. I've said it before, when Kevin first got here, he really changed the culture of everything we did around here -- from the practice habits to on the court, just the discipline. He made everybody accountable, from the ball boys to the chefs to the guy who flew the plane. Everybody was accountable. It was tremendous to just have him around. The culture he brought -- it would be great for me to end my career with Kevin. I have a couple years left, and who knows what his future's going to bring. Hopefully management can do something to bring him back, maybe add some pieces to this team, that we need, to get over the top. If not, it's been a tremendous run."

This is an awesome audio book. The novel is excellent but the narration is superb --- the best I have listened to so far. The narrator is a brilliant artist. The novel is complex and serious work of art. It is for adults--- not for children. It is poetic, profound, and dazzling.
"Poorly written with mediocre narration"
If it had been written and narrated better I would rate it higher. Ultimately, Chris came across as insincere, immature, bigoted, and someone who has no respect for human life.
Narrator read in a flippant childish tone. He read Chris's wife parts as if she was male speaking faster.
The bigotry, dehumanization of the enemy and insensitivity to loss of life was sickening.
I wanted to like this but Chris came across as an uneducated violent thrill seeker not a patriot.
I would recommend this audiobook. The writing is fresh and the narration is practically perfect. This is one of my favorite books.
The odd but wonderfully sensitive and amusing perspective of the story.
He brings the main character to life.
"Important and compelling"
This ranks number one among the nonfiction audiobooks I have listened to so far. Although the audiobook is very long it's journalistic style is compelling and the overall impact on my view of world history was profound.
The events are told in a frank and even couragous manner.
"Darkly funny"
Psychologically darkly funny
The character study of Tom and his world view was fascinating and amusing.
"Surprisinly Good Listen"
This audiobook is actually wonderful...even for adult listeners. Moreover, the novel is well written and the narration was perfect.
"Narration Could be Better"
The novel was excellent; however, the reader was not very good. The story has a first person narration. The central character is an adolescent boy. However, the narrator doesn't sound like a teenage boy but rather like an adult reading to a child. This detracted from the listen.

The Friday Gospels, Jenn Ashworth. Sceptre: £17.99
It seems to be that the bigger the family, the less that gets said between them. Such is the dilemma of Jenn Ashworth's ambitious third novel, The Friday Gospels. Meet the Leekes, an aptly named Lancashire family aspiring to grow in their Mormon faith, but who privately struggle to meet the religion's expectations. On a Friday in August, middle son Gary returns home from a two-year mission in Utah. His homecoming is the tipping domino in a line of plot twists, which eventually sees all the family secrets come spilling out. Told in the family's five voices or 'gospels', this novel explores the shame and guilt that can arise in tight religious communities.
Chosen by BBC's The Culture Show as one of Britain's twelve Best New British Novelists, Ashworth was born in Preston in 1982 and raised as a Mormon herself. The novel begins with the family up at dawn on the morning of Gary's homecoming. Wheelchair-bound matriarch Pauline chirps at the rest of the family that tonight will be a 'special dinner, us all here'. Oldest son Julian complains he has too much to do at the garage where he works. Youngest daughter Jeannie insists she has hockey after school. And father Martin reassures Pauline that all will be fine before driving Jeannie to her morning Mormon classes which start at the dedicated hour of seven am.
Each member of the Leeke family is unhappy in their own way. Sewn up improperly from a difficult birth and refusing to see a doctor about her incontinence and mobility troubles, Pauline endures a humiliating experience at the supermarket. Julian hasn't been to church in ten years and is plotting an elaborate escape from the community. Fourteen-year-old Jeannie has been hiding her pregnancy for four months. Martin becomes besotted with Nina, a fellow dog-owner whom Martin sees daily while walking his dog Bovril. And stuttering Gary, home from his mission, must admit that he didn't manage to convert a single person in Utah. Some of these problems are clichéd – teen pregnancy, an older man fancying a younger woman. But the presence of these issues invites the Mormon view, an area where Ashworth illuminates her audience.
In fact, it is Ashworth's portrayal of Mormon traditions and beliefs which gives the novel an intuitive and humorous edge. Some scenes are memorable for their ironic or embarrassing content. The Mormon emphasis on chastity before marriage sees an uncomfortable Jeannie at her religion classes being presented with a prettily iced cupcake as metaphor of her virtue. As part of a lesson on today's casual attitude towards sex, she is told by Brother Fletcher to give the cupcake to a boy in her class. The church leader encourages the boy to eat the cake: 'Have the cherry as well. Why not?' On the plane back to England, Gary makes a last-ditch attempt to convert the man sitting next to him: 'I wanted to bear my testimony to you, s-sir. I wanted to tell you that I know, without one shad-shad-shadow of a doubt, that what I'm about to tell you is true'. Though laced with stumbles, Gary's plucky entreaty illustrates the significances of conversions in Mormon culture.
It is hard enough writing a novel in one point of view, not to mention five. Here Ashworth stretches herself a little. There's not much difference in the style of voices, so the bold and capitalised names announcing each family member's narrative is a helpful touch. Generally Ashworth employs a similarly anguished, fragmented and near stream-of-consciousness style for each of them. Of the five narratives, Pauline's bossy but pleading voice and Gary's humble and desperate tones seem to be the most defined; the personalities of Jeannie, Martin and Julian are less explored by comparison.
However, by the conclusion the Leeke family is firmly united. Perhaps it's ironic that in a novel about religious practices, a violent episode brings the family together and allows them to be emotionally honest with themselves. Burdened by the weight of their secret, one of the Leekes finally snaps. And as Ashworth clearly points out, it is not faith but family that has the power to save.

Past that is a space decorated with concrete, heavy wood and exposed-brick walls. The glassed-in mezzanine level for smokers provides a perfect stage for voyeurism or exhibitionism--or both.

Alan D - Unregistered August 01, 2010 12:22 PM Sunny, the wing has not been declared legal by the FIA. It has passed the stewards examination. Lots of things pass static scrutineering and are later declared illegal, e.g. Ferrari's original flexi wing, Benneton's mass damper, etc. See F1 Tech Regs:3.17.8 In order to ensure that the requirements of Article 3.15 (rigidity requirements) are respected, the FIA reserves the right to introduce further load/deflection tests on any part of the bodywork which appears to be (or is suspected of), moving whilst the car is in motion.It appears the RBR wing was scraping the floor yesterday. That would be a clear breach of 3.15 and should be clarified. 11 agree 4 disagree
Alan D - Unregistered August 01, 2010 12:31 PM Harry, I don't know that there is a definitive photo of the Red Bull wing dragging on the ground. However, yesterday there was a suggestion that the RBR mechanics were having to clean up the end plate after it had dragged on the track. For photos which clearly show how much lower the RB wing is see:www.jamesallenonf1.com/2010/07/photo-exclusive-red-bull-flexi-front-wing-judge-for-yourself/You can see much more curvature in the Red Bull wing, especially in the bottom two photos. The mid point is at more or less the same height as the Merc wing, but the end plates are right down at track level. 0 agree 1 disagree
rob01 August 01, 2010 12:41 PM Thanks for helping Sunny out on that one Alan. Sometimes rules and regs can be confusing to some. Reply Report abuse 1 agree 3 disagree

NBC NATIONAL NEWS — The United States will no longer offer illegal immigrants free flights back to their home countries.
The Department of Homeland Security began the program nearly a decade ago to fly illegal immigrants to Mexico.
More than 125,000 returned to Mexico City on the flights.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials say ending the program will save $100 million.
They add that a lack of demand for the flights has made them less cost-effective.

Freeman Hates Being Average Joe
by WENN | 05 October 2005
British actor Martin Freeman fears being typecast as an average Joe after his roles in The Office and THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY.
Freeman portrayed lovesick stationary employee TIM in BBC comedy The Office, before assuming a similarly lacklustre character in romantic comedy Love Actually, but declares he is fed up of playing bland personalities.
He says, "When people call me an everyman they think it's a compliment. I want to rip their f**king eyeballs out.
"I don't want to be the cosiest man in Britain; it's not the way I feel about the world or the job I do."

"Awesome Cameroon Sampler!!!"
I was VERY surprised by this sampler. I bought it for the Aurora, the Hemingway, Cohiba, and Cao Cx2. What I got was much more. The Cusano 59 was a real delight. Great amounts of smoke for such an easy draw. I just now ordered another sampler and will do so again in the future. Until I get bored or more complacent I will be ordering this sampler for a while.

BTW, I think this would make a great flyer... Round section as the rear with forward swept elevons A w delta with curved back end. Kinda like my nutball deltas or bullseye delta. All really stable. That is probably why I am drawn to the shape...

The back becomes the front... yes you are correct, that shape looks fine..
Here are the pictures.. The battery shown is a 1000 3 cell.. and with it at that position the COG is just in front of 30% at about 28 1/2%.. Using a 500 placed at the front the COG moves back, closer to 30%... I have found this heart shaped model will fly at a wide range of COG's its not sensitive, but its at its best and is easy, just in front of the 30% I have flown it with a very rearward COG.. It will fly safely but it does some weird stuff.. The oblong/oval shape is very sensitive to the COG which needs to be at a max of 22.5% back.. Its full flyable, but I prefer a less fussed model.. I am going to add a lower step to this, making it a KFm4, to see what difference that will make.. the two heart shaped already are KFm4.. Area wise.. the biggest heart shape has a 1/2sqft more area than a 32" circle.. which is a good max size for a Nutball or UFO With any of these bigger is more docile and takes more storage room.. too big and the thing is not as much fun, too steady and slower to respond.. too small and the wind bumps it bad and it can be too responsive.. Remember I am one of the oldies so prefer to fly just that bit more sedately than the young ones.. Power wise.. the Blue Wonder has enough,but is not excessive, power for the middle 21" long heart.. I am going to swap it for an unused Axi that I have to see how well it goes then... I do like to have excessive power available to make easy work when using larger batteries.. With the much heavier Axi the batteries now go on the COG.. The power is doubled.. ImagesView all Images in thread

Today its a super day here...
Ive been out and flown the smaller and mid sized W wings after they have been modded.. The small semicircular tipped wing is now a KFm4.. this mod has improved the stability a lot.. serious evaluation on the small one.. ok but not super... It is let down by its poor elevator response.. the elevons at 45 degrees roll the model like mad, but when gliding in the elevator does not flair the model when the speed drops down low.. My thought on this is that the main area on the surface has been brought too far forward, so it results in the effective moment arm of the control surface giving less force.. the surface is not huge so the response is poor.. moving the COG back didnt make this better, its best COG is at 22.5% or just forward of that.. On the Blue wonder size, heart shaped, the control surface areas are positioned differently, all controls work very well..Its now running an axi motor giving about twice the weight and power of the Blue wonder.. This is a good combination ..performance is now superb in all ways.. The good COG for this one is at 28%, but its not at all fussy..you can move the battery about till inverted flight is as stable and level as the upright flight...If you put the battery too far back, it will do a climbing loop hands off no matter what way up it is.. it will however still be flyable.. . .

Sorry just because I use sketchup I think everyone should... for foamies and all sorts of design it takes a lot of beating... more info for our uses is here http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=920416 Question do I go with a straight trailing edge with the elevons cut out or use the semicircular elevons Ive removed the semicircular tips from the smallest "W" wing replacing them with this new arc shape.. the KFm4 steps are aligned more with the curved delta wing.. However I am torn between using a straight trailing edge or the curved heart elevons.. I did some evaluation on the biggest "W" wing ... yep still flying well on 150W but a bit lacking in any vertical.. after hotting up the Blue wonder size with such great results, I am going bigger on this one as well... I have just put on an Emax BL2215/25 which will give 200W and another 8oz thrust.. I will say as they get bigger they also get more docile... same as any other model.. Nutballs etc...But with enough power it will go even better.. At the moment the 21" long Heartshape, Blue wonder size, overpowered with the Axi, is by far the best fun of the three... Its big enough to be stable but small enough to be well maneuverable, and overpowered goes like a good'n |

S&P cites India fiscal deficit, debt, as rating constraints
MUMBAI (Reuters) - The Indian government's wide fiscal deficit and a heavy debt burden are the most "significant rating constraints" to the country's sovereign rating, Standard & Poor's said, reiterating its warning that India faces a one-in-three chance of being downgraded to junk over the next 24 months.
"Broadly, India's fiscal profile is a rating weakness," S&P said in a note, echoing views made in an October note.
"Given the political cycle - with the next elections to be held by March 2014 - and the current political gridlock, we expect only modest progress in fiscal and public sector reforms," it said.
The rating agency, which in April cut India's outlook rating to negative from stable, said it did not expect the government to reach its fiscal deficit target of 4.5 percent of gross domestic product in the fiscal year that ends in March 2014.
India has a BBB- rating from S&P, the lowest investment grade among the BRIC economies.
"A rating downgrade is likely if India's economic growth prospects dim, its external position deteriorates, its political climate worsens, or fiscal reforms slow," S&P said.
However, increasing domestic fuel and fertiliser prices, and more efficient use of subsidies could help in stabilising India's rating, it said.
Asia's third largest economy grew at its slowest pace in three years at 5.3 percent in the September quarter and is on track to post its weakest growth in a decade even as a Congress-led minority government struggles to pass key legislative reforms to attract foreign investment.
The ratings agency sees the headline inflation rate, measured by wholesale prices, to remain a risk for growth and low interest rates.
India's inflation may have picked up in November to 7.6 percent as a weaker rupee added to the cost of imported fuel, a Reuters poll of 32 economists showed.

DEFINITION of 'Q Ratio (Tobin's Q Ratio)'
A ratio devised by James Tobin of Yale University, Nobel laureate in economics, who hypothesized that the combined market value of all the companies on the stock market should be about equal to their replacement costs. The Q ratio is calculated as the market value of a company divided by the replacement value of the firm's assets:
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Q Ratio (Tobin's Q Ratio)'
For example, a low Q (between 0 and 1) means that the cost to replace a firm's assets is greater than the value of its stock. This implies that the stock is undervalued. Conversely, a high Q (greater than 1) implies that a firm's stock is more expensive than the replacement cost of its assets, which implies that the stock is overvalued. This measure of stock valuation is the driving factor behind investment decisions in Tobin's model.

Why didn't Twisted treeline also get a new graphics update like Summoner's Rift did? If one of of the main reasons they updated SR was to fix FPS issues, would it not make sense to do the same to TT? Furthermore, why has Twisted treeline STILL not gotten a Normal Draft mode?
Senior Member
They pretty much reskinned all of Summoner's Rift and did new animations for neutral creeps etc. Doing the same for TT would've required a lot of manpower and for such an unpopular map... yeah, not going to happen any time soon. Anyway the changes they did to the game as a whole should also give performance boosts on Twisted Treeline. (source) Also no normal draft for the same reason. (the thread is on page 2 btw, not that far)
We got the medium sized lizard's size drastically increased. It's all the time they had to spare to work on TT.

AA partners with BBC's Robert Peston Speakers for Schools
By Amy Gravelle, campaignlive.co.uk, Friday, 07 March 2014 12:36PM
The Advertising Association has partnered with the BBC's Robert Peston to challenge business leaders from top UK agencies, brands and media owners to become Speakers for Schools.
Peston's Speakers for Schools initiative, which puts industry leaders into state schools and colleges to give inspirational talks for free, has already signed up a large range of speakers for this year's series.
Matt Brittin, Google's vice-president, Northern and Central European operations; Jean-Francois Decaux, the co-chief executive of JCDecaux; Roisin Donnelly, Procter & Gamble's corporate marketing director, and Moray MacLennan, M&C Saatchi's worldwide chief executive, have already pledged their support.
Other speakers who have signed up include Starcom MediaVest Group's executive director, performance and digital development, Europe, Stewart Easterbrook, and the Unilever UK and Ireland chairman, Amanda Sourry.
The AA is aiming to add at least 50 business leaders to the initiative.
Tim Lefroy, the chief executive of the AA, said: "Our goal is simple, to find 50 new industry leaders to support this fantastic initiative. Fifty leading figures from some of the UK's most exciting businesses to spend time in one school, giving their time and sharing their wisdom and experiences to help young people become more confident, determined and ambitious."
Last year's AA/Deloitte report linked more than 550,000 UK jobs to the £16 billion spent on advertising in 2011.
Speakers for Schools are hoping to boost the political recognition of jobs in advertising and create more jobs and opportunities for young people.
Speakers are asked to commit to one talk a year and if leaders are interested in volunteering their time, they should contact the AA.

BY ROBERT J. SAMUELSON, Investor's Business Daily
This is not a good time to be starting out in life.
Jobs are scarce, and those that exist often pay unexpectedly low wages. Beginning a family — always stressful and uncertain — is increasingly a stretch. The weak economy begets weak family formation. We instinctively know this; several new studies now deepen our understanding.
When the labor market operates smoothly, it creates an economic escalator. Just out of high school or college, young workers typically switch jobs frequently until they find something that fits their talent and temperament. Job changes often mean higher pay; people move to advance themselves. The more they succeed, the more confident they feel in marrying and having children.
The most startling evidence of the broken escalator is the collapse in marriages and births. Marriage has been declining for years. Now, in a new study, the Pew Research Center finds that in 2011 the U.S. birth rate (births per 1,000 women between the ages of 15 and 44) fell to its lowest level since at least 1920, the earliest year of reliable statistics.
From 2007 to 2011, the U.S. birth rate dropped almost 9%. The total fertility rate — the estimated number of children born to adult women in their lifetime — has fallen four straight years to 1.9 (the replacement rate is 2.1).
Given Up
States with large economic setbacks suffered steeper birth-rate drops, Pew says. Interestingly, births to immigrants fell more sharply than for native-born Americans. In 2010 — the latest detailed data — they dropped 13% from 2007 compared with a 5% decline for native-born women.
Hispanics, both foreign and U.S.-born, had big birth-rate declines, reflecting, Pew said, exceptionally high unemployment and wealth losses from the recession.
The bleak labor market has hurt all age groups, but none more than the young. Consider the 23.4 million Americans who, on average, were considered "underemployed" over the past year. This group consists of 12.7 million officially unemployed; 8.2 million working part time but wanting full-time jobs; and 2.5 million desiring work but so discouraged they stopped looking.
Of all these workers, 41% (9.5 million) were 30 or under, far in excess of their labor force share of 27%, reports Heidi Shierholz of the Economic Policy Institute, a liberal think tank that provided these numbers.
Fully one-fifth of younger workers belong to the "underemployed." As Shierholz notes, the young always have higher unemployment rates. It's just worse now.
"Young workers are relatively new to the labor market — often looking for their first or second job — and so may be passed over in hiring due to lack of experience," she says.
"If employed, their lack of seniority makes them candidates for being laid off."
But it's more than the lack of jobs — or full-time jobs — that hurts the young. Wages have also sagged because too many applicants are chasing too few openings.
Traditionally, U.S. labor markets have featured enormous turnover: Workers voluntarily leave jobs or are fired. Job changes vastly exceed net job creation, as hires often fill slots that someone else just left.
On the whole, this has been a good thing, argues a new study. Workers can often find a better-paying job.
Could Turn Around
But this "churning," as the study calls it, is abating. Because employers are creating fewer net new jobs, workers won't give up the ones they've got. As the labor market freezes up, the young lose bargaining power.
"Because job change accounts for a substantial portion of earnings growth, especially for younger workers, this decrease in churning reflects a decrease in workers' opportunities for (higher wages)," write the study's authors, economists John Haltiwanger of the University of Maryland and Henry Hyatt, Erika McEntarfer and Liliana Sousa of the Census Bureau.
The glut of job seekers depresses wages in a second way, argues the study. New firms — which create a disproportionate share of new jobs — don't have to pay as much to hire.
In 2001, workers at firms 10 years old or less earned 85% as much as workers at older firms. By 2011, they were paid only 70% as much. And these newer firms matter. From 1998 to 2011, they created 40% of net new jobs despite representing only 25% of total employment.
It's usually a mistake to generalize about entire generations. The bad luck and bad timing of today's 20-somethings may pass. Birth rates could bounce back.
"In the past, women who have postponed births make up for it later," says Pew's D'Vera Cohn.
The economic recovery may strengthen; the retirement of baby boomers will create new job openings; and surveys indicate the young remain optimistic despite setbacks.
So the economic escalator may again accelerate.
Still, the question nags: Could this become a lost generation?

Northfield Bancorp, Inc. Postpones Stock Offering
AVENEL, N.J., Sept. 30, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Northfield Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq:NFBK), a federal corporation and the stock holding company for Northfield Bank, announced today that Northfield Bancorp, Inc., the recently formed Delaware corporation and proposed new holding company for Northfield Bank, has postponed its stock offering in connection with the second-step conversion of Northfield Bancorp, MHC due to current unfavorable market conditions.
John W. Alexander, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented: "Since we began our offering earlier this year, market conditions for financial stocks, including second-step conversions, have weakened substantially, resulting in lower appraisal levels and decreased investor demand. Our Board of Directors continues to believe that the stock holding company structure will best position Northfield to execute its long-term business strategy, and will continue to evaluate market conditions for second-step conversions in the future."
Mr. Alexander continued: "Northfield Bancorp, Inc. and Northfield Bank remain very well capitalized and the postponement of the offering should not affect the execution of our current business plan."
In accordance with regulatory requirements, all persons who submitted orders in the subscription and community offerings will have their subscriptions cancelled and funds returned with interest or deposit holds released.
