Lance Armstrong 'admits doping'
It's not official yet. The television interview won't even be shown until Friday morning our time, but already the US media is reporting that cyclist Lance Armstrong, seven-time Tour de France winner, has admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs.
He reportedly told famous talk show host Oprah Winfrey his victories were aided by special drugs that, at the time, were almost impossible to detect.
Winfrey, herself, did not reveal details of the interview ahead of its Thursday night air date on her OWN cable network and website, but she took to Twitter to say the exchange had lasted more than two and a half hours.
"He came READY!" she tweeted.
For years, Armstrong has repeatedly denied taking performance enhancing drugs to win the Tour de France and other big cycling events.
Reporters, photographers and TV crews took up positions earlier across the street from Armstrong's opulent Austin home, where the interview was supposed to take place and which is surrounded by a 2.4-metre stone wall.
Before the taping, Armstrong personally apologised to staff members at Livestrong, the charity he founded to support cancer survivors.
Any confession by Armstrong could have legal or financial ramifications, particularly among big-name corporate sponsors such as Nike that had loyally stood by him even as doping allegations grew.

OMG potato blitzcrank so FREAKING awesome!!! XD
I am sad about my entry, teemo cake with teemo cupcake mushrooms, i think it was as good as the other teemo entries yet i dont get a single mention so sad.
both blitzcranks made me laugh
The Rammus was the best of all of the entries imo.
Congrats to all the winners! ^_^ Though, I'm a little mad cause I feel like my Heimer was on par with Tici's. :|
Thanks unbelieve ^_^ You know, somehow most winning entries are made of fondant. Of course that's edible but yet it feels more like a modelling material rather than food. I wish there were more entries, the "ingredients" of which were more recognizable.

We often get two questions involving inner door belt weather strips for Fox Mustangs. And that's, which one do I need? And how do I put them on?
Well, there's only two versions available-- one that fits '81 to '93 hard tops, which includes all of your coup and hatch backs, whether they're solid roof, sun roof, or T-top. It'll even fit '83 to '87 convertibles, as long as they have the mirrors just like these. If your convertible has the door-mounted pedestal style mirror, then you're going to need the '88 to '93 convertible-specific version. The installation really isn't all that bad, especially when you're using quality 50resto replacement weather strips and attaching hardware. The first thing you're going to want to do is watch our door panel removal video, that way you can get caught up to our next step.
Locate and remove all the staples that retain the weather strip to the door panel. You can use a screwdriver, pliers, or a combo of the two. They're pretty stout, so be careful and take your time.
Remove the old whether strip from the door panel. Line up the tab of the new weather strip with the notch on the door panel. Using a power drill with a Phillips head driver, install the new inner belt weather strip with our 50resto hardware kit.
The screws will tap their own holes or you can drill small pilot holes if you desire. Use six screws per panel. Repeat all these steps for the other side.
And there you go. It's that's simple. And in case you're wondering, no those screws will not make contact with your door glass. And the backs of the screws will still allow for easy installation onto the door frame.

The cast of "Love & Hip Hop" continues to shrink as Emily Bustamante leaves the show.
Yesterday it was confirmed that neither Jim Jones or Chrissy Lampkin will be back for season 3 of "Love & Hip Hop." Now Emily B. is following their lead.
The stylist revealed that she would not return for another round. "There will be a 3rd Season of #loveandhiphop NY but I will not be a cast member. The show was a great experience.. Thank you Mona & Stefan," Emily tweeted today. But…. You won't miss me for long hmmm.. #Vh1."
Could Emily be hinting at a spin-off of her own? Emily and her babydaddy Fabolous have been spotted together quite a bit this year, and there is suspicion that all of their photo ops might be prep for their own series.
Jim and Chrissy are also getting their own show, but his mother Nancy Jones said recently that it hasn't been picked up by a network at this time. She did admit, though, that VH1 would have the first crack at bidding on the series, which is reportedly titled either "Jim and the Family Jones" or "Jim & Chrissy."

I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this in.
We don't vaccinate.
One of our friends sons is 3 and has the chicken pox. He is still contagious.
I am thinking of exposing my 2 boys. They are 5 and 7. They have never been exposed to chicken pox before that I know of. I worry about them contracting it as adults and I would prefer them to be exposed as children. On one hand, I want them to have immunity, but on the other hand it seems so awful to purposefully expose them to a disease that has killed people.
I would appreciate some input from those of you with more wisdom.

Yes, I would. In fact, I'm trying to find someone local who has it so I can have a playdate with my 5yo, who hasn't had it yet.
If your kids get it, can you send me a lollipop that they slobbered all over so I can give it to my boy? :)

I'm SO glad my kids got CP. Thank-you to DH for getting Shingles ;)
I would give it a try. Better to get it now than later. As far as killing people, so has the common cold in certain cases. If your children have normal immune systems, I wouldn't worry about it. CP is not much fun though, so be prepared for some grumpy kiddos for a few days!

Hey! Where are you??? May I come crash the party? I'm only half-kidding....
I just exposed my 3 yr old to chicken pox 12 days ago. Technically we're still in the incubation period, so I don't know if he "caught" it. If it doesn't happen for us this time, then I'm hoping we'll come across it again someday.
ETA: Chickenpox parties were very common when I was a kid and there was no vaccine. My mom exposed me when a friend's child had it. I remember waking up one morning, my mom looked at me and (with a big smile) said, "You have chicken pox!!!" I was about 5.
Too many variables at play. I'm not really one to purposely seek out illness, although I'm not against other people making the decision to expose their kids.
Absolutely. I hope I can find a child with chicken pox for my soon-to-be child to play with before we hit school age. The chicken pox vaccine or "proof of disease" are mandatory for school here. I am much more at ease dealing with a case of the chicken pox than I am feeling forced to vaccinate for it!! Just have oatmeal baths at the ready! :)
Yup. When I was a kid, my sister came down with CP. First thing my mom did was fill up the tub and plop us both in.
I selectively vaccinate on my own schedule, but yes, I would expose my children to chicken pox. I never thought I would say that, but I much prefer that to them getting the vaccine.
Absolutely, especially at those ages. You might not get another chance before they are teenagers.
I'm assuming they are of normal health and are not taking steroidal medication.
It's best to not give them any medication for fever.
In 2004, Mothering Magazine had an article about chickenpox parties.
Another vote here for purposeful exposure to CP! I remember at least one CP party at the neighbor's house when I was a kid, but didn't get it. Probably was too shy to get close enough to get exposed thoroughly. I caught it in my 20's from the kiddos I was a nanny for and it was one of the worst experiences of my life!!! Seriously.
My fever spiked at night a few nights in a row and I was hallucinating and I lived by myself and no one really wanted to get near me lol so I just toughed it out.
In retrospect I'm glad I got it over with before I have my own kids though.
Lavender essential oil is really great at calming the itchies and calamine lotion or a blend together :)
As an aside all the kids I know that have gotten the vax have gotten cp anyways...
Most likely I would yes
If the people let government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as are the souls of those who live under tyranny." Thomas Jefferson.
I would most definitely! I welcome a playdate with natural chicken pox!!! I secretly await for the school's to get an outbreak so we can go there and walk around! LOL! I am certain, although it's been some time ago that I did that research because it seems STUPID to get a shot for something that is so simple, children/people do not die from chicken pox. They die from secondary infections. You sound like a great mama who wants the best health for your children. I am sure you would be attentive enough to know when something is not right or when fever or infection are dangerous. You are not just going to expose them, and leave them all day to head to work! (Hopefully!) Certainly you have adequate sanitation, would provide good nutrition and hydration, and comfort and rest! One tip: when I got chicken pox, my family had a beach trip planned and we went ahead with it. one swim in the ocean, my pox dried right up and I have life long immunity! It was perfect!!! Just an idea in case that's a possibility for you! I know we have decided we are doing that if our children ever get exposed! Maybe you could sea salt their bath water???
It's also a good idea to go to chickenpox parties even after your kids have gotten it, to give them the natural immunity boosters that nature intended for protection from shingles. Adults need the exposure too.
I *really* want to get my kids exposed as my eldest just turned 10 and is rapidly heading into when it will be more dangerous to get it. My mom had shingles a year or 2 ago & I didn't even think of trying to get it from that.
I'd be actively looking right now, but I'm pregnant & neither my mom nor I remember if I ever had them. Dh definitely did, he's been against me trying to expose the kids because he had such a miserable experience.

Just wondering if you went, and if the kids caught CP - I am looking to expose my daughter and I'm looking for active outbreaks (preferably in Illinois, but I may be open to travel or at least paying to ship some lollypops).
I had shingles at age 28. I had no children and was unaware that there was even a chicken pox vaccine that nearly all children were getting. The doctor who diagnosed me said it was due to "stress" because I was in grad school. I'd had a nasty case of CP when I was 13, too.
I wonder how many more cases there are of young adults getting shingles.
I will seriously board an airplane to get to a party. Just name the time and place!
I not only would. I have. Twice. They haven't caught it yet.

I am a not-a-mama yet lurker. But I had shingles at the age of 17. (I am 22 now and this was after the introduction of the CP vaccine). I had chicken pox at the age of 3 or 4.
Queer Not-A-Mama-Yet, here to read and lurk until it is time to have the babies...
Well, I chickened out (excuse the pun) and didn't expose my children to the pox. Partly because DH was not totally on board with it, partly because my son was already sick with a bad cold and I wasn't sure what effect that would have on his immune system and recovering from chicken pox, and partly because our week was so busy and I missed the infectious time that they would have needed to be exposed. I did do research about the incubation period, the infectious period and what to do to ease the symptoms. So I'm keeping my ears and eyes open for the next outbreak. Thank you all for your advice. I feel more comfortable now that I've done my research and gotten some opinions. :)

that was how my kids got it. Even 3 (out of 6) of my vaccinated kids still broke out. Not as bad, but they still had spots all over. It was not as bad as even my mom made it out to be. They are uncomfortable (about 4 and up) from scratching but otherwise, it was not bad at all. My dd was born after the "outbreak" and if I can find another family with the pox, I will have a play date. :)

I believe that I got shingles when I was in my mid 20's...around 25. I had a stressful life at the time and was sick all the time. I got this weird cold sore on my head just above my eyebrow that just would not go away, I was treating it with some sort of cream, and it cracked and was red and fissured, and I had a headache in that part of my head for weeks. It was scabbed over and there were these deep shooting pains both burning and itching in my head, and they made me dizzy. I can't even describe it. In any event, I thought it was shingles, but I had only one lesion, so I decided it couldn't be. It took two months to go away, and I worked in retail and never took any time off, never went to the doctor, so if it was shingles, I probably infected many people. It left a noticeable scar on my head too.
Anyway, I'm hoping that was a mild case of shingles and I don't get them again, but I guess shingles are common in the elderly. I had chicken pox when I was about 6, I think.
Thankfully, my son got it at 5 years old from a vaxed kid at a playground. I was all prepared for it but he only came down with a bad fever for 2 days and broke out with a total of 4 spots.
Last year again in my home school group, a vaxed kid came to the park (without knowing he had it) and got a really really bad case of it, passed it to other kids in the group. Of the 20 kids he saw that day, 7 other (fully vaxed) kids got it-.
My daughter who was 6 got it and my son didn't.
Again, my daughter just came down with a bad fever for 2 days and then only had 3 spots.
I do assume that our lifestyle of good food with strong immune systems helped both of my kids get it and CP end up being super easy. (not saying this is an absolute, but I do know it always helps!)
I did at first wonder what would happen if my son was around it again-with the thought, that his CP was way to easy, I wonder if it really did give him immunity! Apparently it did. My son was also the one who was most around and all over playing with the infected friend.
One day I hope the same thing happens to my new little one! (just not yet!)

I would absolutely expose my kids to it. Some nationalities do not do well with chicken pox, those from countries that have never even heard of it. But, if you are in a country where it is a fairly common thing, then yes I would. I do not vaccinate and I believe that vaccines can cause a lot of harm and are not always/maybe never effective, so I would not take the risk of vaccinating for something so small and non-life threatening knowing that it probably wont even be effective.
The article that ma2two posted is great by the way, I highly recommend it!! http://www.whale.to/vaccine/wimer.html
Yes I would. I am hoping to find the pox before April when the new baby is due. My son has never had a vax and my daughter was a victim of my ignorance and got hers up to a year. I hope she can gain some sort of natural immunity by getting the pox.
Rikki ~~ Married Aug 04 ~~ DD Feb 06 ~~ DS Oct 07 ~~ DD April 12
It's hard to find other kids with pox. Has anyone considered exposing your children to an older person with shingles in order to catch chicken pox? From what I read, people can catch chicken pox from exposure to someone with shingles.
I would and did! We went to a CP party 2wks ago. I'm still waiting to see if it took, fingers crossed, but if not, i'll look for another outbreak of CP to expose him to. I think it's much to risky to get CP as a person gets older, it's better if they get it now! My son is not vaccinated by the way!
I would purposely infect my children with the pox via pox party if I had to do it over again. I write this to you as my 18 year old who received her first vaccination in 2001 sits infected on my couch. Her case was much worse as a young adult than if I had exposed her as a smaller child. This vaccine is bogus, and now, seemingly to me, just another way for pharma companies to not only make money off of the vaccination, but also the booster (that is only good for 10 years btw) , plus the doctor visit to certify that it was indeed pox, along with the benadryl, tylenol, and hydrocortizone I had to buy in addition to the anti-viral medication that the doctor called in because she was breaking out so fast and so bad. It actually scared me. I have three other children who are younger and am praying that they get it too.
The argument against it, I know secondary infections and complications are possible, but not as many as experiencing it as an adult or older child.
I tried as well, without success. We did physical contact and lollipops to no avail. I'm frustrated and hope to try again next year but not terribly optimistic as it is so incredibly rare around here. Plus, it seems most of the forums where I would learn about it block any type of post re cp parties. sigh.

cific means by which SEMATECH was to do so were the subject of considerable debate, and SEMATECH's focus zigged and zagged in its first few years of existence. It was restricted to U.S. companies; Japanese producer NEC, which had a U.S. production plant, was turned away when it sought to join in 1988.3
A number of U.S. semiconductor materials and equipment producers formed a complementary organization, SEMI/SEMATECH, in 1987 specifically for the purpose of cooperating with SEMATECH. SEMI/SEMATECH was granted SEMATECH membership and a seat on the SEMATECH board of directors, and became the official vehicle for the organization of SEMATECH development projects and the teaming of materials and equipment producers. In 2000 SEMI/ SEMATECH renamed itself the Semiconductor Industry Suppliers Association (SISA).
Given the relatively large theoretical literature on R&D cooperation that sprang up in the late 1980s and thereafter,4 there has been surprisingly little empirical analysis of the impacts of R&D cooperation on industrial R&D.5 The highest profile R&D consortium in the United States, SEMATECH, appears to have been the subject of precisely three studies with any claim to rigor. One study, undertaken by Link, Teece, and Finan, calculated an internal private rate of return for SEMATECH member companies on a sample of SEMATECH projects that

EF-3 Tornado
Garrard and Madison Counties
May 8, 2009
EF-scale: EF3
Deaths: 2
Injuries: several
Path width: 150 yards
Path length: 22 miles
Time: 4:55pm EDT - 5:19pm EDT
The tornado touched down in eastern Garrard County on Bethel Road just west of the intersection with Nina Ridge Road. It almost immediately produced EF-1 damage and quickly increased to EF-2 sterngth before crossing into Madison County just 1.3 miles later. The second house hit by the tornado, nearly at the tornado's inception point, was badly damaged and a bill from that house was carried 35 miles to the northeast, landing in the yard of a National Weather Service employee in Powell County!
Near the intersection of KY 1295 and KY 52 in Madison County the tornado reached low-end EF-3 intensity. Two adults were killed when the mobile home they were in was picked up and thrown by the tornado. The bodies of the dead were found in a nearby pond. Five others were in the mobile home and were injured. One person was paralyzed from the neck down, and a four year old child suffered a fractured skull and broken leg.
The tornado continued northeast across the Blue Grass Army Depot, which received minor damage, and then into the Waco community where more damage was inflicted. The tornado lifted near the end of Drowning Creek Road northeast of Waco.

Police corporal who cheated man over $150 'fine' is jailed for cheating
Published on Mar 19, 2014 11:59 AM
A police corporal who threatened to send a man's teenage cousin to a girl's home unless he paid him a $150 "fine" was jailed for five months on Wednesday.
Shawn Lim Zi Han, 22, an investigation officer with Clementi Neighbourhood Police Centre (NPC), admitted cheating the 33-year-old man who had gone to him after his 14-year-old relative was reported for stealing a wallet.
A district court heard that Lim had recommended that the girl be placed on a guidance programme over the incident at City Vibe mall in August 2012.
Investigations found that Lim asked the girl's mother to pay him a fine of $150, after which the case would be closed.

Keep your Feline Paws off My CatSubmitted by trurthseeker (not verified) on Thu, 05/05/2011 - 4:17pm.
My cat does not wear a collar either but is sometimes let out and he hangs around the porch and goes no where. Do I have to worry that one of these"Do gooders" is going to snatch my cat, operate on it and cut part of the ear off. Yea this sounds like to me you have a bunch of zealots who think with emotions, not brains and if you snatch my cat I guarantee you, you will regret it. Keep your paws off cats you definitely cannot say are feral. »

Another lawsuit has been filed against truck stop giant Pilot Flying J, marking at least the seventh suit to be brought against the company since federal fraud allegations surfaced in April.

Pilot Flying J CEO Jimmy Haslam said in a statement today that 99 percent of Pilot customers are not "in the scope of this inquiry."

Birds by name
Conservation status: Amber
These delightful silvery-grey and white birds have long tails which have earned them the nickname 'sea-swallow'. They have a buoyant, graceful flight and frequently hover over water before plunging down for a fish. They are often noisy in company and breed in colonies.
Sterna hirundo
Terns (Sternidae)
Breeds along coasts with shingle beaches and rocky islands, on rivers with shingle bars, and at inland gravel pits and reservoirs, feeding along rivers and over freshwater. Migrating birds can be seen offshore in autumn.
Throughout the summer - they arrive in April and leave in August and September. They are most obvious when feeding young as they will fly some distance for food, returning to the nest site with a fish.

Good Morning everyone.
I thought i'd write to get some input on a project i've been working on for some time now.
I have a ton of artwork for tabs and brackets that i've been doing here and there for the past couple years to have them photoetched.
The problem i always run into is how to put those pieces into logical kits to have them made.
The thing i run into time and again is wondering, "what if a customer doesn't want that many of this part on the fret, what if a customer needs more of another part and would have to buy multiple frets to get what they need".
I go around in circles trying to make a decision, changing my mind, and never actually get a completed fret together and put it onto a plate to get etched.
So last night i started thinking about doing all of these brackets A la carte, A single small fret with multiples of a single type of bracket, and offer a whole bunch of different ones and you'd just get what you want for your project. Pick your tab's radius (for what tube it would fit onto), pick the offset you want for the tab, and pick what hole size you want (to match whatever pin, screw, or bolt you are putting into it)
This goes against classical thinking for model parts. Most PE products are kitted together for a single project in mind.
My thought when i started Dirt Modeler was always to create a sort of mini parts shop. Not so much one that sold kits of different pre determined projects, but something like a scale version of Jegs and Tabzone.
I'm going to go ahead and take the gamble and move head on this project. There is only so many parts i can fit on this plate i'm working on, if there is enough interest i'll definitely continue on with the project on future plates. The first release will be around 100 different tab choices in multiple scales, starting with basic radius and flat tabs.
I hope it ends up being something that can be universally utilized by modelers, regardless of what your subject or scale is.

Portis considers future without football
ASHBURN, Va. -- The season is over for Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis. Now he's left to contemplate where he might play next -- and whether he will play again.
Portis was in a reflective mood Tuesday after the Redskins placed him on injured reserve. Doctors have yet to clear him from a concussion he suffered a month ago, and he sounded like a player with a very open-ended future.
NFC East blog
ESPN.com's Matt Mosley writes about all things NFC East in his division blog.
"I think I'll get well," Portis said on his weekly radio appearance on ESPN980. "I have to put the time into rehabbing and continuing to do what the doctors say, but at the same time, to have the opportunity to play for eight years and play and compete and not miss many games ... if it's my time and I look back today, I think I had a great career. No one wants to finish on an injury, but at the same time I enjoyed it and I would love to come back."
Portis was hurt in a helmet-to-helmet hit against Atlanta on Nov. 8 and since struggled with vision problems and dizziness. He spent Monday and Tuesday making a return visit to a specialist in Pittsburgh.
"They told me they weren't going to clear me," Portis said, "and that I needed to go see an optometrist and get my eye better. ... Doc feared if I took another hit like that, it could get worse."
Portis' season ends with a career-low 494 yards rushing on 124 carries and one touchdown. Although only 28, he already has 2,176 carries, third most in the NFL since entering the league in 2002, and was already showing signs of wear and tear before the concussion.
Both the Redskins and Portis' agent gave upbeat assessments Tuesday about the running back's playing prospects. Team executive vice president of football operations Vinny Cerrato issued a statement that said: "Clinton's prognosis is good and we expect him to make a full recovery and return to the Redskins."
Portis' representative, Drew Rosenhaus, said via Twitter that he's been assured by Portis' doctors of a complete recovery by the 2010 season and that he is "very optimistic" about Portis' future with the Redskins.
But the Redskins are also 3-9, and owner Dan Snyder is expected to make major changes in the offseason.
"Do I think there will be change? I do," Portis said. "And if I'm part of that change would I be sad and devastated? I won't. I think I'm appreciative of everything Mr. Snyder and the Washington Redskins have done for me, the opportunities they gave me.
"I'm 28, man. I'm not going to be devastated: 'Oh, man, football is over.' I enjoyed it. I had fun doing it. I gave everything I had doing it. I did it to the best of my ability. The day that I sit down and I look back on my career I think I will enjoy the highlights. If I get to continue and I'm not in D.C. and I have to play for someone else, I will give it all I got there as well."

Serena Williams upset by American
MELBOURNE, Australia -- Serena Williams' dominating run at the majors ended in a painful loss to American teenager Sloane Stephens.
After the biggest victory of her life, the 19-year-old Stephens is headed to the semifinals of the Australian Open.
Williams hurt her back in the eighth game of the second set, slowing down her serve, restricting her movement and causing her obvious pain.
More on espnW.com
Sloane Stephens writes about her biggest win so far in tennis: "When I woke up Wednesday morning I had a good feeling about the match against Serena." Story
Though not yet 20, Sloane Stephens already has a win of a lifetime after she knocked off her idol, Serena Williams, Bonnie Ford writes. Story
Stephens kept her composure, blocking out the injury issue on the opposite side of the net, and rallied for a 3-6, 7-5, 6-4 victory on Wednesday -- by far the most significant in her seven Grand Slams.
The gravity of it didn't hit Stephens until she was warming down, and even then the victory had an unreal feeling.
"I was stretching, and I was like, 'I'm in the semis of a Grand Slam.' I was like, 'Whoa. It wasn't as hard as I thought.' But it's pretty cool," she said. "To be in the semis of a Grand Slam is definitely I say a good accomplishment. A lot of hard work."
It was Williams' first loss since Aug. 17, ending a run of 20 consecutive wins.
The 15-time major winner hadn't lost a match at a Grand Slam tournament since the French Open, where her first-round exit sparked her resurgence in the second half of 2012 that included titles at Wimbledon, the London Olympics, the U.S. Open and the WTA Championship.
After winning her first Grand Slam quarterfinal, Stephens next plays defending champion Victoria Azarenka.
The No. 29-seeded Stephens had been given barely a chance of beating Williams, who lost only four matches in 2012 and was in contention to regain the No. 1 ranking at the age of 31.
Williams' latest winning streak included a straight-sets win over Stephens at the Brisbane International earlier this month.
And Stephens wasn't even sure that she could beat Williams, until she woke up Wednesday.
"When I got up, I was like, 'Look, Dude, like, you can do this.' Like, 'Go out and play and do your best,' " she said.
It wasn't until after losing the first set and being broken in the first game of the second that she really convinced herself she could.
"I was like, 'Hmm, this is not the way you want it to happen. But you just fight and just get every ball back, run every ball down, and just get a lot of balls in play, I think you'll be OK.'
"From then on I got aggressive, started coming to the net more, and just got a lot more comfortable."
She started hitting winners, cutting down on the errors, and pushing the injured Williams around the court.

Williams walked around the net to congratulate Stephens, who then clapped her hand on her racket and waved to the crowd, a look of disbelief on her face.
She then went to her tennis bag, pulled out her phone and started checking for any text messages from her mother.
"I was hoping she had texted me right away. I thought maybe she was texting me during the match," Stephens said. "I'm sure my grandparents are like freaking out."
Stephens has said she had a photo of Williams up in her room when she was a child, and had long admired the Williams sisters.
"This is so crazy. Oh my goodness," Stephens said, wiping away tears in her post-match TV interview. "I think I'll put a poster of myself (up) now."
For her part, Williams said the bad back was just another problem to contend with at a Grand Slam event that had been "absolutely" her worst for injuries. It started when she injured her ankle in the first round.
"I'm almost relieved that it's over because there's only so much I felt I could do," she said. "It's been a little difficult. I've been thrown a lot of (curve) balls these two weeks."
Williams was up a set and a break before Stephens settled in. In the eighth game of the second set, Williams was chasing a drop shot to the net when she appeared to hurt her back. She needed a medical timeout after the set, and then slowly started to regain the speed in her serve.
She said her back "just locked up" on her.
"I couldn't really rotate after that," she said. "It was a little painful, but it's OK."
There were times when she barely concealed the pain, and had to bend over or stretch out her back. Yet the thought of retiring from the match only crossed her mind "for a nanosecond."
It didn't mean she wasn't frustrated. Williams smashed her racket into the court in the third set, breaking the frame and then flinging it toward the chairs on the side of the court. She looked to the sky occasionally and yelled at herself.
The racket abuse cost her $1,500 in fines.
Azarenka, with her most famous fan sitting in the crowd wearing a shirt reminding her to keep calm, overcame some early jitters to beat Svetlana Kuznetsova 7-5, 6-1 in the earlier quarterfinal at Rod Laver Arena.
After dropping serve in a long fourth game that went to deuce 10 times, Azarenka recovered to dominate the rest of the match against Kuznetsova, a two-time major winner who was floating dangerously in the draw with a No. 75 ranking as she recovers from a knee injury.
Azarenka's American rapper friend, Redfoo, returned from a concert in Malaysia to attend Wednesday's quarterfinal.
Wearing a red sleeveless T-shirt that read "Keep Calm and Bring Out the Bottles," the name of his next single, Redfoo stood, clapped and yelled "Come on, Vika!" during the tight first set.
Asked if it helped to have her No. 1 fan wearing a keep calm logo, Azarenka said "I was looking more at the part that says 'Bring out the bottles.' "
Of her game, she added, "I'm just glad I could produce my good tennis when it was needed."
Williams' loss was a boost for Azarenka, who lost all five head-to-heads against the American in 2012 and is 1-11 in their career meetings.
On the other half of the women's draw, Maria Sharapova has conceded only nine games in five matches -- a record in Australia -- en route to a semifinal against 2011 French Open champion Li Na.

Moto GP3 Climax Interview
NAWith Namco's Moto GP 4 just around the corner Climax have their work cut out if they are to match it. We've been playing Namco's effort recently and this year they have really thrown the gauntlet down to Climax. We chat with them to see how they are going with responding to the challenge.
Moto GP has always been seen as one of the premiere Xbox titles. Why do you think that is, and why do you think a game which is traditionally a niche genre, has made it so big?
Climax: I think this is mostly down to the quality of the bike physics. While initially fairly easy to pick up, there's a lot of depth in there that rewards practice and gives a huge amount of replay value. A lot of players got involved in MotoGP because of our award-winning Live implementation, but that's really just the icing on the cake: if the core gameplay wasn't so much fun, nobody would care how good the online lobby is!
For the first time, you're adding tracks and races outside of the actual Moto GP championship. Why was this decision made and do you think it will affect the authenticity of the game in a Moto GP fans eyes?
Climax: Street racing is cool. We already had 16 real world tracks, and to be honest once you have that many, there isn't a whole lot of point just adding more of the same. The new tracks are extremely different in feel, adding some fresh variety to the gameplay.
I don't think this will affect the authenticity at all. If people want to experience a simulation of the real GP season, they can still play through GP mode exactly as before. But now they have the option to take this same great physics out into some different types of environment as well.
What is the biggest new feature over Moto GP 1 and 2?
Climax: I think all the new tracks. There is a truly ridiculous amount of content in this game!
Can you give a brief explanation of the embedded gameplay feature - Will players unlock bikes etc quicker if they play against humans or is it just a case of being there if someone wants to use it as opposed to AI riders? If a person is on Live while playing single player, is this forced upon the player?
Climax: Nothing is forced on you. If you want to play offline, you can do that, but if you want to play online, you can unlock better bikes and more rider experience that way, too. It's entirely up to you.
The rate at which you unlock goodies depends on the skill of whoever you beat. If you keep winning against rookie mode AI riders, or spend all your time racing against newbies on Live, you aren't going to earn all that much, but if you manage to beat the Legend mode AI, or one of the top ranked Live players, you can get a load of stuff all in one go.
The commentator mode is one of the most unique modes seen in a racing game to date. How exactly does it work and what stops everyone just commentating on the race?
Climax: Only one person gets to commentate at a time, and the host chooses who that will be. So you have to all agree and set this up in advance.
What is your favourite track in the game and why?
Climax: I think the new Malaysia Extreme track. It's incredibly fast (reminds me a bit of Phillip Island), looks gorgeous, and generally just good fun.
With a brand new extreme mode this time around, can people expect real tracks such as the isle of man or are they completely fictional?
Climax: They are loosely based on real locations, but the track layouts tuned for gameplay rather than trying to exactly copy anything in particular.
What graphical enhancements has MGP3 got over the first two games?
Climax: The lighting has been much improved, using per pixel effects and normal mapping on the riders and tarmac surface. There's neon for the night time Tokyo level, a great new water effect, depth of field in replays
How has the multiplayer changed since MGP2?
Climax: Probably the biggest improvement is the spectator mode, so you can watch the race rather than just having to sit and wait in the lobby if you join while a game is already in progress.
It's also cool that the hardcore Live players can unlock everything by playing online, so you are no longer forced to play the singleplayer game if you don't want to.
The livery editor is improved from MotoGP2, too.
What does the governing body of MGP think about the game especially when compared to Namco's effort?
Climax: Not really my place to comment on that: you'd have to ask them!
Thanks to Climax for their time.

February 14, 2005 TALLAHASSEE In attempting to unravel the mystery that is his Florida State basketball team, coach Leonard Hamilton must sometimes find himself pondering whether the Seminoles are "half-good" or "half-bad." Looking at FSU's results heading into the league's stretch run, it's a chicken-or-egg argument.
Through their first 11 ACC games, the Seminoles were 3-8. Five of their losses had come by a total of nine points. Three, however, were of the lopsided variety, rekindling visions of the disastrous 2001-02 season (12-17, 4-12) that marked the end of the Steve Robinson era.
A 32-point home loss to Duke (88-56) on Jan. 22 marked the most lopsided defeat in Hamilton's three-year tenure, and a 21-point home loss to UNC (81-60) easily could have gone that way as well. The Seminoles, however, may have bottomed out with an 87-48 loss at Wake Forest on Feb. 12. That rivaled their worst league loss, a 103-55 drubbing at North Carolina in 1998, Robinson's first season.
"I've been here before," Hamilton said, prior to the Seminoles' collapse in Winston-Salem. "We'll get it turned around."
It appears unlikely that turnaround will come this year. Unable to build on last season's 19-14 campaign and NIT berth, and despite being picked to earn an NCAA bid in a number of preseason publications, the Seminoles dropped two games below .500 following the loss at Wake, a team it beat in overtime three weeks previously at home.
Hamilton's squad has serious shortcomings, to be sure. Sophomore center Alexander Johnson has back-slid after earning all-rookie honors, and without an inside presence, the Seminoles must live and die by their perimeter game.
That's a problem when sophomore guard Von Wafer pulls his frequent vanishing acts. A prolific scorer, Wafer continues to sulk after missed shots and often stands around at the offensive end of the floor. To this point, there isn't another player on the roster who has shown the ability to step up and make plays offensively.
Freshman point guard Isaiah Swann hasn't been unable to unseat junior Todd Galloway as the starter, largely because of his carelessness in handling the basketball. With Galloway and junior guard Andrew Wilson in the lineup, the Seminoles are basically playing three-on-five at the offensive end of the floor.
If there was anything positive to come out of the Wake Forest defeat, it was the play of freshman guard Jason Rich, who scored 11 points on five-of-seven shooting. Hamilton would like Rich to take minutes from Wilson, who is FSU's best defender and knows the offense better than anyone but simply isn't an offensive threat.
Wilson, a fifth-year junior, isn't the only veteran who has struggled. Senior Adam Waleskowski has faded over the last month and looks nothing like the player who had 23 points and 14 rebounds at Maryland in January. Senior Anthony Richardson returned to the starting lineup at power forward, replacing Waleskowski, but hasn't materialized as a consistent contributor.
Prior to the Wake game, Hamilton was pondering more expanded roles for his first-year players especially Rich and Swann, but also fellow guard Ralph Mims. With the Seminoles headed down the postseason road to nowhere, that's a decision that could come sooner rather than later.
Steele Earns Raise, Consideration?
Florida State athletic director Dave Hart is not in favor of handing out long-term contracts to assistant coaches, but don't be surprised if he comes through with a big raise for linebackers coach Kevin Steele.
In just two seasons with the Seminoles, Steele has established himself not only as a premier recruiter, but someone who seems to relate exceptionally well to the players and his colleagues. Not surprisingly, he has become a hot commodity.
To that end, Hart said Steele will be getting an increase to his $150,000 a year salary, which ranked second on the staff among assistants to long-time defensive coordinator Mickey Andrews. Consider it a wise, and extremely important, investment in the future.
Hart won't say so, but any internal search for the eventual successor to Bobby Bowden might begin and end with Steele. In addition to impressing Hart, the former Baylor head coach has impressed university president T.K. Wetherell, a former FSU player.
Steele recently was honored by Rivals.com as its national recruiter of the year, after the Seminoles made an 11th-hour haul of blue-chip signees that vaulted the class to No. 2 in America. He was instrumental is landing a trio of stars, as the lead recruiter for wide receiver Fred Rouse, linebacker Geno Hayes and cornerback Jamie Robinson.
Couple his ability to recruit with his NFL experience and his contributions to the defensive game plan, which made the Seminoles one of the best in the country last season, and it's clear that FSU officials will have to pony up to keep Steele on board. And whenever Bowden is ready to step down, they may have to pony up again.
Dugans Returns For Important Role
Former FSU wide receiver Ron Dugans, who spent four seasons in the NFL after teaming with Peter Warrick and Chris Weinke on the 1999 national championship team, has been hired by the school as an assistant strength coach.
Just don't expect Dugans to be in that role for long.
When offensive line coach Jimmy Heggins left the program after the Gator Bowl and was replaced by Marshall offensive coordinator Mark McHale, the Seminoles were left with just one minority coach on staff. In fact, FSU now is one of only two schools in the ACC (along with N.C. State) with just one African-American staff member.
As a strength coach, Dugans' work largely will be restricted to the conditioning of the football team. However, if he were to take a graduate assistant position prior to the fall and that's rumored to be under consideration it would allow him full-time access on the practice field with the rest of the coaching staff.
Well-respected for his work ethic and his route-running during his time as a player, Dugans would be an ideal fit within the current FSU staff. He would be able to take some of the burden from offensive coordinator/receivers coach Jeff Bowden.
Dugans also should be able to more easily relate to what will be a relatively young receiving corps. Willie Reid and Chris Davis are the only returning receivers with more than 10 career receptions.

It's not bad, especially for the price, but I was looking for something that would replace the very expensive stuff I use, and this wasn't it. Maybe better for someone who doesn't have as thick hair as I do
Excellent service

text: Well Lad Di Dah Bob Stull. What else is Coach Floyd going to tell you? That is until he gets a firm offer from USC! What did I hear Coach Floyd say on the news this morning = that his meeting with USC went well. That tells me that Coach Floyd is looking to jump ship. It is his right to go wherever he wants but if he REALLY wanted the focus to be on tonights game & on Miner basketball then he would of told USC that he would talk to them at the end of the season (I know that is wishfull thinking).

Maize superintendent returns to work part-time after May surgery
Maize superintendent Doug Powers returned to work part-time this week as he continues to recuperate from surgery to address coronary blockages, district officials said.
Powers, who has been on medical leave since mid-May, "is transitioning back to his regular duties," said district spokeswoman Lori O'Toole Buselt. He was in contact with district personnel during his leave, she said, but associate superintendent Marsha Beard assumed his duties during his absence.

Will FPV be allowed?
Hey Scott, the more the marrier. I assume FPV would be allowed and that we could downlink the FPV transmission to a flatscreen for the crowd, like Treggon and I have done at Float Flys. Maybe Treggon would bring his trailer with the setup. I have to figure out if I'm going though.

The report offers that "approximately 90 per cent of the images were of cartoon drawings called Japanese Anime, while the remainder were of actual children." (Just once, I'd like to see one of these reporters actually reach out to an anime/manga expert, so that they could at least get the terminology right.) Apparently the computer forensics also found that at least one of the boys was trying to figure out whether the material was legal or not.
The article claims that it's legal in the United States, somewhat erroneously-- the 2003 PROTECT Act, better known as the "Amber Alert law," also includes legislation against drawn depictions of minors engaged in any kind of sexual intercourse; the law has not been tested in courts and previously the Supreme Court found in favor of the legality of such drawn depictions, so it's unclear whether the law would stay on the books if the Court got to try it.
But back to the point at hand: since it was unclear which twin did most of the downloading, and both admitted to having done some, they received the same punishment, although one brother may have "a low risk to re-offend" based on reports, while the other "admitted that he was attracted to 12-year-old boys" and had thought of approaching them.
Now, it seems to me that compared to Christopher Handley-- the Iowa native who plead guilty to a PROTECT Act charge in May, who is facing up to 15 years in prison --their sentence seems fairly light. And Handley, as far as I'm aware, had ONLY manga-type drawings, as opposed to these two, who had a small number of real-life kiddy porn images as well.
Speaking of Handley, I did some research on the PACER court database, and while he was originally supposed to be sentenced in August, as I recall, but instead it looks like in September the prosecutor is still working on the pre-sentencing report, which was drafted, objected to, and then not objected to. The most recent document in the case is from September 17th, which was just a declaration that they published the Order of Forfeiture of additional property of Handley's-- which means there's been nothing filed in the case in a month.
I'm not a lawyer, and I don't know exactly what that means in terms of when Handley will be sentenced. It seems odd to me that they'd wait so long, though-- I've e-mailed Handley's attorneys of record, so I'll let you know if/when I hear back from them.

Abhimanyu Mithun named in Australia squad
Royal Challengers Bangalore speedster Abhimanyu Mithun has been named as the replacement for Praveen Kumar in India's Test squad for the upcoming tour of Australia. Mithun is currently with the team playing in the ODI series against West Indies and will leave for Australia on December 12th from Chennai.
Mithun will join fellow RCB players Virat Kohli and Zaheer Khan who were named in the squad earlier. Mithun has had an inconsistent Test career, making his debut in Sri Lanka in 2010 where he impressed with his work ethic and lower order batting but took only 6 wickets, not enough to retain his place.
He was again called up to the Test squad for the tour of West Indies earlier this year where he played in the drawn second Test at Bridgetown, taking a match haul of 3/84. Dropped from the squads for the tour of England and WI's tour of India, Mithun returned to the ODI team when Praveen Kumar pulled out with a rib injury. Subsequent scans showed a serious injury, prompting the selectors to find a replacement for Kumar for India's tour of Australia.
The 22 year old Abhimanyu Mithun has done consistently well for Karnataka on the domestic circuit but wickets have evaded him in International Cricket. Deservingly, he has yet another chance to prove himself in Australia where the conditions will assist him and he will want to cement his place in the squad there.
