Thursday 5 Mar 2015
By Emily Sharpe. Conservation, Issue 226, July-August 2011Published online: 27 July 2011
ROME. Annibale Carracci's ceiling frescoes in the Palazzo Farnese are considered by many to be one of the most influential Renaissance commissions in Rome. When the Bolognese artist's love-themed cycle was unveiled in 1600 it was hailed as a masterpiece. Carracci's mix of northern Italian naturalism and Roman idealism laid the foundation for Baroque art. Now, thanks to the combined efforts of the World Monuments Fund, the French Embassy in Italy (which occupies the palace along with the Ecole Française de Rome) and the Paris-based Fondation de l'Orangerie pour la Philanthropie Individuelle, around €1m has been allocated for the restoration of the "Carracci Gallery" frescoes. Work is expected to begin this year.
When Cardinal Odoard Farnese was looking to decorate the barrel-vaulted gallery of his lavish 16th-century palace, the cardinal's brother, the Duke of Parma, Piacenza and Castro, recommended Annibale Carracci. In 1597 Carracci took up the commission with instructions to base his composition on the theme of the "Loves of the Gods" to mark the wedding of the Duke of Parma to the grandniece of Pope Clement VIII, Margherita Aldobrandini. The cycle consists of a series of mythological scenes set within frames and architectural elements. The composition's centrepiece, The Triumph of Bacchus and Ariadne, depicts the lovers in tiger- and goat-driven chariots. The ceiling took 11 years to complete, during which time Carracci enlisted the help of his brothers Agostino, Ludovico and Antonio, as well as artists from his workshop including Giovanni Lanfranco and Domenichino. Work to stabilise the vault was first undertaken in the late 17th century by artist Carlo Maratta and various initiatives to protect and secure the ceiling were carried out in 1923, 1936 and most recently, in 1994.Plans for the restoration project are still being finalised and the scientific committee tasked with overseeing the project has yet to be announced. Carracci's use of both true fresco as well as a secco (pigments tempered with egg, oil or glue are applied to dry plaster) techniques in the ceiling's decoration may complicate the restoration as conservators will need to make sure that certain delicate elements such as shading, which was often executed in a secco, are not removed during the cleaning process.

I have my Droid set up to sync Books, Contacts, Gmail, Picasa, and Calender in the settings area. However my contacts have not been able to sync since I got the phone. Any help?
check gmail on your PC with the acct name you're logged into on your Bionic and make sure the contacts are there.
I have it up on my computer right now - did it before posting and they are there. I just noticed there are two "contacts" lists in Google - deleted one to see if it would work. Who knows.
on your Bionic check CONTACTS > MENU > DISPLAY OPTIONS > tap GOOGLE and make sure the right options on the list are checked.
Contacts is checked in there - maybe since I had two contacts lists up until 5 minutes ago it wouldn't sync properly - I may have to wait to see what happens. No idea. All that's checked is contacts not all the rest of the options like friends - but they should all be in contacts.
Just for giggles go to MY ACCOUNTS on your Bionic and double check the gmail account thats listed in there please. If you see the right account listed tap on it and make sure all the Sync options are checked.
well crap... ... I think we both know what the next step is going to be if they dont sync soon. *sighs* I'm afraid to say it....
I just turned on my OG Droid to see what the settings were - same as Bionic. And it sync'd just fine. So why won't the Bionic sync contacts?

Cat litter does not make for very solid evidence. Conan stated quite clearly that the type of cat litter found on the carpet was made from paper, which easily stuck to the cat's hairy paws. Why, then, couldn't it have just as easily gotten stuck onto the man's pants when the cat brushed up against him, and accidentally tracked into the house?

Ninth paragraph, second sentence of release was updated to include the 'Goolge Nexus 7 tablet 2012 and 2013 version' and the 'SABRE Board/Platform for smart devices'.
The corrected release reads:
Qt Enterprise Embedded offers unique and powerful tools and value-add components to address embedded device creation and Internet of Things development strategies
Digia has released an update to Qt Enterprise Embedded, the fully-integrated solution that enables users to get started immediately with embedded device creation with a tailored user experience ready to address the Internet of Things connected device trend. Today's release includes the latest Qt 5.3 libraries, Qt WebEngine, Qt Quick Compiler, integration to the Qt Cloud and several other improvements. It contains all the tools needed for fast, easy, fully-integrated embedded device application development and deployment – further increasing developer efficiency, application and device performance, and shortening the development time of embedded software. With Qt Enterprise Embedded it is as easy to develop embedded software as it is to build applications for desktop or mobile.
Qt Enterprise Embedded brings performance, efficiency and shorter-time-to-market to embedded development allowing engineers to create beautiful, high-performing and modern UIs and applications. The pre-configured embedded development environment, pre-built Qt optimized software stack enables immediate deployment to verified reference boards allowing users to get up and running and have a working embedded project prototype from day one.
This Qt Enterprise Embedded update introduces a first look at Qt WebEngine, a powerful cross-platform web offering that combines Qt Quick for native apps for maximum performance, HTML5 for dynamic web content and reusability across web and native - with WebGL support for whenever extra 3D elegance needs to be added to the UI. Qt WebEngine is particularly important for embedded devices that need to offer on-demand web access and where the ability to develop hybrid UIs and functionality is key to keep up with changing market requirements.
"User experience demands on embedded device creation have changed dramatically over the years, with users in fast-paced industries now demanding performing beautiful interfaces that run fluently at 60fps with smooth transitions, animations and pinch zooming. Not only does the UI need to look innovative and modern, it needs to be developed in a fraction of time. Qt Enterprise Embedded has been created to address the need to get devices to market faster providing the tools necessary to make development easier and more efficient supporting the latest connected devices trends," says Juhapekka Niemi, VP Sales & Marketing, Digia, Qt.
Qt Enterprise Embedded also includes the recently announced Qt Quick Compiler. Qt Quick Compiler is a new professional build tool, which allows for the compilation of QML files into an application. The compiler ensures IP protection of the the QML source and improves load time and performance by pre-parsing the QML files. With compiled Qt Quick, application start up is up to 90% faster than before, a key requirement in various embedded verticals.
Incremental deployment to devices is also being introduced to reduce the time it takes to deploy software to devices. Previous versions of Qt Enterprise Embedded offered USB-connection to the device as the primary way to deploy, run and debug on devices. The latest version adds the possibility of connecting to devices over a local area network using standard IP protocols – simplifying the sharing of devices amongst team members and setting up devices for automated testing.
The update to Qt Enterprise Embedded also provides full integration with Qt Cloud Services and the Enginio Data Storage to enable users to create a whole cloud backend for embedded, mobile and desktop Qt clients through a convenient Qt API. Together with the newly added Bluetooth support (using BlueZ) and the existing Wi-Fi and wired network support, the platform provides everything needed for implementing, monitoring and updating internet-of-things devices from within a single technology.
Qt Enterprise Embedded also provides the full set of Qt Enterprise value-add functionality, including a comprehensive virtual keyboard solution with multi-language and word-prediction possibilities, support for Qt Quick Enterprise Controls for industrial applications and libraries for 2D and 3D charting and data visualization.
The Qt Enterprise Embedded development environment runs on Ubuntu Linux 64-bit 12.04 LTS or later. Target hardware supported as standard at time of launch includes: Google Nexus 7 tablet 2012 & 2013 version; Boundary Devices SabreLite (Freescale i.MX 6); SABRE Board/Platform for smart devices (Freescale i.MX 6Quad); Raspberry Pi Model B (ARM11); and BeagleBone Black (TI AM335x). Digia is also able to port the software stack to custom hardware. The Qt Enterprise Embedded Emulator is included within the development environment. Qt Enterprise Embedded comes with Yocto –based tooling that easily extends the provided configurations to match the final hardware design as well as supports other hardware environments.
Full details on supported hardware, more information about Qt Enterprise Embedded and a 30-day free trial offer can be found at http://qt.digia.com/qtenterpriseembedded

The true value of the Internet of Things (IoT) lies not just in the data, but through the services that protect the data, perform the analysis and present findings in a usable way. With many IoT elements rooted in traditional IT components, Big Data and IoT isn't just a play for enterprise. In fact, the IoT presents SMBs with the prospect of launching entirely new activities and exploring innovative areas. CompTIA research identifies several areas where IoT is expected to have the greatest impact. Mar. 1, 2015 02:00 AM EST Reads: 3,001 |
By Carmen Gonzalez Wearable devices have come of age. The primary applications of wearables so far have been "the Quantified Self" or the tracking of one's fitness and health status. We propose the evolution of wearables into social and emotional communication devices. Our BE(tm) sensor uses light to visualize the skin conductance response. Our sensors are very inexpensive and can be massively distributed to audiences or groups of any size, in order to gauge reactions to performances, video, or any kind of presentation.

After the 65th Cannes International Film Festival, debut director Vasan Bala's "Peddlers" is now set for screening at the 37th Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) next month. He is elated.
"It's great that the film has been selected at Toronto after Cannes. Since the French press sighted a very American independent influence on the film, I am quite curious how it will be received here," Bala said in a press statement.
"Peddlers" is a thriller about two parallel love stories - one about a cop and his married neighbour and the other of a girl on a mission and an aimless guy.
Co-produced by Eros International, Guneet Monga and Anurag Kashyap, the movie is scheduled to be screened as part of the City to City section with an aim to bring global cities to Toronto audiences, and the focus will be on Mumbai this year.
"TIFF is among world's top movie events, and is a gateway for international films into the north American region. Eros International saw the potential in the film the moment they saw it and decided to back it up," Monga said in a press statement.
The film features actors like Gulshan Devaiah, Siddharth Menon, Kriti Malhotra and Nimrat Kaur.
TIFF will be held Sep 6-16 this year.

Columbus Razes 1,300 Housing Units With State Grant Funds
Foreclosures during the Great Recession added to thousands of blighted properties in Columbus. But, a state program helped fund demolition of many of those houses and apartment units.
Listen to the Story
Tucked in the rolling hills of rural Meigs County, Ohio is a sight that seems just a little out of place. Skatopia is a do-it-yourself skate park where there's a lot to skate and few rules. Hundreds of people-skateboarders, bands, and hangers-on make the trek from all over the country every summer for Skatopia's big party: the "Bowl Bash." WOSU's Jonathan Hickman has the story.
Ask people what they love about skatopia, and often there's a common answer:
"You can do whatever you want. You can do whatever you want here, You can just do whatever. everything goes here, pretty much, within reason." Say park visitors.
So what, exactly, is "within reason" at Skatopia? Cincinnati business-owner Don Matalka has been visiting the park with his son for years, and helps run the annual Bowl Bash.
"Anarchy does happen a lot. There will be 3 or 4 cars that will be blown up here in the next 48 hours. If You want to knock your windows out, cut your top off, derby your car and blow it up and figure out how to get back later, do it." Says Matalka.
But as Matalka is quick to point out, that doesn't mean there are no rules.
"You know, there's only two rules here: do whatever Brewce says, and don't mess with anyone else's stuff." Says Matalka.
"Everybody out of that car! Come here!"
The Brewce in question is Brewce Martin, founder and owner of Skatopia. He greeted some teenagers who arrived for the party.
"You guys know you can't party out here at all. No drinking at all." Says Martin.
But since those titles don't do justice to the role Martin plays in his 88 acre fiefdom, people have taken to calling him the Skate Pope. Visitors are welcome year round-an hour of work is the price of admission-and some settle down on the property for weeks or even years at a time, living in trailers set back in the woods. A dirt road winds up past Martin's house, which he shares with a skateboard museum, to a bright pink barn with skate ramps and bowls for a backyard. If the road isn't too muddy, you can follow it up to Skatopia's concrete "Lulabowl." It was named after Martin's dog Lula, who was run over on one of the dirt roads, and is buried somewhere below the concrete.
Skaters make a special pilgrimage to this unlikely mecca each summer for the Bowl Bash, a party where they'll drink hard, drive hard, shoot fireworks at each other, and set cars on fire. It's as though someone has crossed Mad Max with Lord of the Flies and set it down in southeastern Ohio. And the Skate Pope loves it.
"Yeah I got like 60 bands coming, I got a concrete truck coming, I got 2 professional skate teams, hundreds of campers, hundreds of cars, hundreds of idiots, thousands of cans of beer Q:SOUNDS LIKE CHRISTMAS? Yeah, it's just like Christmas." Says Martin.
And that's right-along with skate teams and bands from as far as Hollywood, California and New York City, a concrete truck was scheduled to make an appearance.
"Brewce! Tell 'em concrete's here!"
For many of those "hundreds of idiots," skating, partying, and working go hand in hand. Some skaters build ramps professionally, and during the first afternoon of the two-day party, Martin took advantage of their collective expertise to expand the Lulabowl.
As the sun sets, the working winds down and the skating picks up, especially down in the barn, where the main event, the Bowl Bash, itself-gets underway. The barn's first floor has been turned into "the punisher," an immense wooden bowl shaped like half of a hollowed-out kidney. Crowds watch from the loft of the barn as skaters barrel down what looks to be, at least for the first few feet, a nearly vertical drop to the pit of the bowl more than a story below. Patrick Splat, a skater who was there with his band Apes Hit, wasn't going to try his luck.
"The big bowl just looks insane, I mean, I don't know. I would like to skate it but that thing looks, I mean, we're on tour, I don't want to break anything. That just looks really scary. That waterfall is like 6 feet. It's just nuts, it looks nuts." Says Splat.
To make things even gnarlier, the bowl is flanked on either side by stages where bands play one after another well into the morning. While skaters are swooshing and clacking around the bowl, others are moshing in front of the bands. Aaron Shephard traveled from New York to join the fun.
"I definitely liked the show. You know, I can't hear out of one ear, I took an elbow there, and I'm getting thrown around by 400 pound guys. What's better than that?" Asks Shephard.
Inevitably, fireworks are tossed in among the dancers, and not just your standard firecrackers. These are the aerial shells you usually see exploding in a small umbrella of color well out of range of, well, your face. There was even talk of some one setting off a claymore mine last year, though Nate Wilson, a skater from the area, wasn't so sure.
"Aw, no that wasn't a mine mine, that was just two or three real fireworks in a case. So it didn't go up in the air, it just exploded. Q: But it caused some damage? Not really. I mean no one died." Says Wilson.
But damage was done this year, Brewce Martin's two rules were broken, and that's not all.
"Who broke the windshield on this car?" Asks Martin.
Mindy Morstadt's drove down from Columbus, but she'd have to find another way to get home.
"You broke her window with a rock. She hit you with a club." States Martin.
With the car's windshield shattered, a few 12 and 13 year-olds took it on themselves to finish the job.
"These kids jumped on it, and broke, well, they, the car is totaled."
By the time Morstadt returned from her tent to move her car somewhere safer, even the sunroof's tinted glass was scattered across the hood. Martin called the kids' parents and banished them from Skatopia for a year, while the fellow who broke the windshield was given porta-potty duty. It's unclear which was the more severe punishment.
But Meigs County Sheriff Robert Beegle says that's the only call his department got this year, and he doesn't remember getting many more since he became sheriff. Maybe the neighbors are a little hard of hearing.

Archived:Frame length variation for G.711 encoder (Known Issue)
Archived: This article is archived because it is not considered relevant for third-party developers creating commercial solutions today. If you think this article is still relevant, let us know by adding the template {{ReviewForRemovalFromArchive|user=~~~~|write your reason here}}.
The length of frames produced by the G.711 encoder has been changed from 20 ms to 10 ms in the Nokia N95 firmware v2.0.015.
S60 3rd Edition FP1
Frames produced by the G.711 encoder will have a length of 2+80 bytes (10 ms) in the Nokia N95 firmware v2.0.015 and the Nokia N95 8GB, when it previously was 2+160 bytes (20 ms).
This change was made in order to support all possible G.711 frame sizes (10 ms, 20 ms, 30 ms) in the Nokia Internet Telephony application.
This affects Audio Proxy Server (APS) clients and applications using the G.711 encoder directly when running on the Nokia N95 firmware v2.0.015 (and onwards), as well as the Nokia N95 8GB.
APS does not provide any means of resolving the frame size used by a codec until the streaming is started. Audio frames passed to G.711 decoder must always have the same length as frames produced by the G.711 encoder.
If the remote party expects G.711 frames in 20 ms mode, the client should combine adjacent 10 ms frames to produce 20 ms frames as needed.
The G.711 encoder uses a fixed frame length, and it cannot be configured dynamically.

Light-heavyweight champion Adonis Stevenson and challenger Dmitry Sukhotskiy formally announced their December 19 Showtime fight yesterday at the NRJ Bell Media building. This isn't the ideal fight for Stevenson considering missed opportunities to face Sergey Kovalev and Bernard Hopkins this year. However, the light-heavyweight landscape will be a lot clearer by the time this bout takes place, giving it more meaning for Stevenson as he heads into 2015.
Filling out the card will be Andre Dirrell, Kevin Bizier vs. Jo Jo Dan, and Artur Beterbiev vs. Jeff Page Jr.
My hand has healed from the injury when I fought Fonfara. I'm healthy and I'm ready to go.
Going 12 rounds was a good experience for me. I train for 12 rounds in the gym. Sometimes it's good to go the distance and get the experience.
Everybody brings their A-game because I'm the champ.
I know I'm the king of the light heavyweight division and I know that everyone wants to take my belt. I'm going to train very hard.
Sukhotskiy is a tough guy and he's hoping to surprise me. I'll prepare, my hands will be perfect and it will be a short night on Showtime.
I'm hoping to fight with Kell Brook, but I'm concentrating 100 percent on the fight with Kevin Bizier. I've been waiting for this fight since I started boxing.
I know he's learned some things and has more experience since our first fight. But I also know him better now than when we first fought, so I think it's going to be an exciting fight.
If the knockout comes, it's comes, but I always prepare for 12 rounds. If the chance is there, I won't miss it. But that doesn't mean we aren't preparing for 12 rounds.
I train 100 percent and I'm sure he'll be in the best shape of his life. We're looking to make the fight of the year in Quebec.
If I want to win the world championship then I need to prepare for the best and the toughest fight of my life against [Jo Jo] Dan.
It puts a little more pressure knowing that I could fight for a title if I win in December. But I'm focused on Dan and no one else. I'm just focusing on boxing. I'm not worried about stopping him.
I learned to be more relaxed after our first fight. In the first fight I was going for the KO. I'm going to try to be more relaxed and use my jab this time around.
I'm not worried about getting another knockout. It all depends on the strategy of the fight. I'm going to fight until the last round.
With [Tavoris] Cloud I was preparing for 12 rounds and I could never have predicted that I would only box for four minutes. I was just doing my job and that's what happened.
I'm going to be more motivated for this fight because he's undefeated. Every fight I go in the ring thinking that I've already lost to my opponent before. That way I won't take my opponent lightly.
The amateur career helped and I hope it will help me for the rest of my life. But at the same time I need to progress. I have a lot to learn in professional boxing and I'm looking forward to it.
No, I don't think he's overrated. He had a great amateur background and he went to the Olympics twice. He has beaten a lot of good fighters and he just beat Tavoris Cloud, so I think he's a tough opponent.
I have great hand speed and great footwork, but I know I can't run from him like everyone else has. I'm ready to exchange – I have great power myself.
I think him and his team are underestimating me, but I'm going to use that to my advantage. I'm going to come in and show him right away that I'm there to win, that I'm not an opponent.
Being an underdog is absolutely a motivator for me. Everybody back home is going to be watching. If I win this fight big things are going to start happening for me and my team. Everyone will know who I am.
I think my experience helps. He's had a lot of amateur fights, but amateur and pro fights are a lot different. I've trained with a lot guys – I've been to Vegas, I've been to Chicago – and I'm getting ready to go to Big Bear. I have a lot of experience and I plan to use it.
I train for knockouts but I'm ready to 10 rounds.
[Video] Artur Beterbiev Pounds Tavoris Cloud Into Submission
Posted: September 27, 2014 by Ismael AbduSalaam in Fight ReportsTags: Artur Beterbiev, Bell Centre, full fight, knockdowns, KO, Montreal, Tavoris Cloud, TKO, video
Less than 10 fights into his pro career, Artur Beterbiev has made a strong statement in the light-heavyweight division by decimating former titlist Tavoris Cloud in two rounds Saturday night at the Bell Centre.
Cloud had not been seen since a September 2013, seven-round drubbing at the hands of Adonis Stevenson. He looked no better tonight, sporting a visibly wider mid-section but reduced capacity for taking punches. Beterbiev took charge from the opening bell and put Cloud in retreat with powerful right hook counters.
Cloud's downfall escalated during the inside exchanges, were Beterbiev battered him with right and left hooks to the tune of three knockdowns in the first round.
Beterbiev wrapped up the second round but cornering Cloud and putting him face-first on the mat with a left hook counter shot.
Beterbiev is now 6-0 (6 KOs). Cloud has lost three consecutive fights with the last two coming by knockout.
My God, this was ugly. This fight is probably the final nail in Cloud's coffin as a contender. You can make the valid argument that he hasn't won a fight since his June 2011 KO over Yusef Mack. Since then he's received a robbery gift over Gabriel Campillo, given a boxing lesson from Bernard Hopkins, battered by Stevenson and now destroyed by Beterbiev. From the way Cloud was reacting to the punches, it was clear those difficult moments were taking him back to the Stevenson beating (and he wanted no parts of that type of fight).
A good team protects their fighter coming off a bad loss. The last thing you do is put him in with another puncher after a year out the ring. That tells me the team that helped guide Cloud to premium HBO dates has jumped ship, or is cashing him out as a gatekeeper.
As for Beterbiev, it looks like we might have another scary Eastern European bruiser in the division to join Kovalev.
[Video] David Lemieux Streamrolls Guerrero in 3

David Lemieux breathed new life into his career with a brutal and efficient third round KO Saturday night on Showtime's Stevenson vs. Fonfara undercard.
Billed as a crossroads fight, the fight was determined by durability. Both landed flush shots, but Lemieux's hooks and power proved more damaging. Guerrero was cut badly over his right eye courtesy of Lemieux's left hook, and tasted the canvas three times, the last coming via a brutal right uppercut.
The win raises Lemieux's record to 32-2 (30 KOs). Going into Saturday night, Lemieux was ranked #7 by the IBF, #12 by the WBO and #13 by the WBC. In his post-fight interview, Lemieux confirmed his willingness to face the winner of the proposed WBO championship match-up between title-holder Peter Quillin and Danny Jacobs.
[Video] Gunshy Bute Falls to Pascal, Perez Disappoints in Draw with Takam
Posted: January 19, 2014 by Ismael AbduSalaam in Fight ReportsTags: Adonis Stevenson, Bell Centre, Boxing, Carlos Takam, fonfara, HBO, Jean Pascal, Lucian Bute, Mike Perez, Montreal, photos, pics, recap, results, Review
MONTREAL — Despite a dramatic 12-round that featured Jean Pascal flirting with a stoppage defeat, the former light-heavyweight champion dominated a tentative and overmatched Lucian Bute to a unanimous decision (118-110, 117-111 and 116-112) before a sold-out, hot crowd at the Bell Centre. Bute was the overwhelming crowd favorite, but the repeated "Bute!" chants couldn't overcome Pascal, who although utilizing his fighting in explosive spurts pattern, also displayed skillful countering ability that kept Bute confused and domesticated.
PASCAL'S THREE KEYS: The initial four rounds were a chess match with Bute scoring well with his jab and Pascal doing solid work with hard right hands to the body. However, Pascal completely walked away with the fight starting in the fifth behind these three factors:
1. THE WEIGHT: The main reason I picked Pascal by decision is I felt he'd have hard time adjusting to the natural strength and durability of a career light-heavyweight. That proved to be the case as even the Pascal haymakers that didn't land clean had Bute stumbling backwards and reluctant to counter. In addition, when Pascal did land clean, Bute froze and was driven to the ropes where Pascal would work him over with 7-10 punch combinations.
2. FOUR-ROUND FIGHTER NO MORE: I interviewed Pascal for Knockout Nation earlier this week, and he was emphatic in stating that his tactic of exploding in spurts was not due to bad stamina, but a strategy to demoralize and dominate his opponents. I admit, I kind of snickered at that, but it's hard to deny it isn't intentional and more importantly, not effective. Pascal would take Bute's best shots and played possum long enough each time that Bute, and many times the crowd, would think he was actually hurt. Then in the span of a few seconds, it was Bute frantically stumbling back on his heels after eating left hooks and overhand rights, or covering up on the ropes after being spun around by Pascal.
3. JEAN JONES MAYWEATHER JR.: Roy Jones worked with Jean Pascal and was in his training camp for this fight. The results were evident in Pascal's sharp lead right hand that many times stopped Bute's offense cold. Pascal varied the punch as a counter shot too, fighting out of a shell and popping Bute right down the middle ala Mayweather whenever Bute got bold enough to lead (Note: Pascal also worked with the Mayweathers for this fight). To make it more embarrassing for Bute, in the latter rounds Pascal literally looked in the other direction while waiting for Bute to get in range before popping off a quick right hand.
UNNECESSARY DANGER: Pascal flirted with disaster the last two rounds by taking his possum strategy to the extreme. While it seemed like he just took the 11th off, Pascal started the 12th by letting Bute wail away on him in a corner for over a minute. The ref was out of sight of the camera, but you could hear him state several times for Pascal to "show him something," indicating he was close to stopping the fight. Pascal never seemed alarmed by this and would simply lift his head up and nod to the ref that he was ok.
Considering the dubious calls we've seen in situations like this, it's incredible, and downright foolish, to see Pascal taking a risk like that in a fight he was dominating. Nonetheless, Bute had been conditioned enough by this point to expect a strong Pascal flurry, so he was hesitant to really go all out. Pascal did indeed manage a big flurry at the round's midway point, but it was Bute who closed the round in stlye with a few counter right hands to manage a moral victory of sorts for his fans.
PASCAL VS. STEVENSON: This is the next logical big Montreal fight, but Pascal didn't seem enthusiastic to call out Adonis Stevenson, preferring to praise their comradery based on ethnic ties. It also important to note Stevenson is allegedly in talks to face Andrzej Fonfara next, which means Pascal might have to wait until the summer or possibly take Sergey Kovalev.
BUTE'S NEXT MOVE: If I'm Andre Ward, I'm kicking myself for not taking that Bute fight years ago. Many will say Bute is completely washed up, but that crowd reaction says fans north of the border are still willing to pay good money to see him. If I'm HBO, I put on a triple-header for my next Montreal card with Stevenson and Kovalev in separate bouts, and Bute getting one last chance to salvage his career against another former champion in dire need of a win, Chad Dawson.
MIKE PEREZ STUMBLES: On the undercard, Mike Perez was extremely lucky to walk away with a draw against Carlos Takam, who quite simply bullied and worked him over inside for the second half of their ten-round fight. Early on, Perez was the aggressor in feet only, coming forward but not being able to land many clean shots on Takam, who elected to fight off the backfoot with a low punch output. An accidental butt produced a bad cut on Perez's left eyebrow in the third, and Takam slowly started to get confidence.
Takam upped his punch output and found massive dividends when he took the fight inside. As the much bigger fighter, Takam was able to muscle Perez to the ropes and sapped his energy with clubbing shots to the body. The judges had it 96-94 Takam and 95-95 twice for the draw. My score was a clear Takam win, 97-93.
Perez dedicated the fight to Magomed Abdusalamov, who Perez beat badly in November and put into a life-threatening coma. Although Abdusalamov is slowly going through the recovery process, it's not a far-fetched theory to think Perez wasn't in the best mental state headed into this fight. In addition, Abdusalamov was a massive heavyweight and landed his own heavy leather in that November fight. Considering that it's barely been three months, the turnaround might have been too quick for Perez.
However you look at it, the one clear thing from this fight is HBO's eagerness to paint Perez as a threat to Wladimir Klitschko was a complete "prisoner of the moment" stance.
