To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Coventry City's famous FA Cup triumph over Tottenham Hotspur, the Observer has teamed up with Coventry City's Former Players' Association (CCFPA) to re-capture the memories of players, managers, and fans from the club's greatest day on May 16, 1987.
This week our sports reporter caught up with Spurs midfielder Steve Hodge.
Hodge began his career at boyhood club Nottingham Forest where he spent three seasons working under Brian Clough before a
surprise big money move to Aston Villa.
Although he had a troubled time in the West Midlands, Hodge did earn an England call-up and was included in Bobby Robson's 23-man squad for the 1986 World Cup Finals in Mexico.
His reputation grew and a move to Tottenham Hotspur followed after the tournament. But after the high of scoring two goals in the semi final against Watford Hodge recalled feeling shattered and emotionless after the final whistle of the first of his five Wembley cup final appearances.
"We knew we were in for a difficult match because we had lost to Coventry 4-3 in the league earlier in the season.
"We felt Gary Mabbutt could keep Cyrille Regis quiet although we were all aware of his ability. Their keeper (Steve Ogrizovic) was excellent so we knew this was going to be a tough game.
"It was a very hot day and I think that benefited Coventry because we had a small squad back then and that may have cost us the cup. Coventry had a fit squad of players and I think that showed in extra time. Fitness was an issue because it had been a long,
hard season for us.
"Our attacking mentality left us vulnerable at the back and Coventry took advantage of that.
"We beat Watford comfortably in the semi final at Villa Park and we knew we were hot favourites for the final, but we also knew they were capable of scoring goals. Keith Houchen's header allowed them back into the match and changed the game.
"If he hadn't have scored that goal we would have gone on to win the match 3-1, but that's how it is.
"There was lots of attacking play after that goal with both teams going forward hoping to score. In extra-time we were thinking we'll hold out for a replay but then the third goal went in and the game was over.
"I was completely shattered at the end of the match. I just sat there on the pitch and felt no emotion.
"I remember watching Brian Kilcline lift the club and I shook his hand and congratulated because we are both local lads from the same area. I was genuinely happy for him."
Hodge did get his revenge when his Nottingham Forest side beat the Sky Blues in a League Cup semi final three years later, a competition Forest went on to win.
"I suppose you could say I got my own back on Coventry when I beat them with Forest in the League Cup semi-final in 1990.
"Coventry were always a hard team to beat. They had a reputation of being a well organised side with a large fan base in the West Midlands and I would have preferred West Ham in the semi-final.
"But we managed to scrape through and beat them 2-1 at home and then we held on for a 0-0 draw at Highfield Road."
Hodge made 24 appearances for England, but none would stick out more than the 1986 World Cup quarter final against Argentina after his famous "back pass" in the days when goalkeepers could catch them led to one of the most controversial goals ever in world football.
"It was definitely a pass back to Peter Shilton," he told us.
"I caught the ball sweetly and hooked it back thinking it wasn't a problem. The next thing I know it was in the back of the net.
"Maradonna gambled and I'm sure at some point in their a career almost every footballer has cheated in some way.
"At the end of the game I shook Maradonna's hand and then immediately got collared into doing an interview for a couple of minutes.
"After that I was walking down the tunnel and he re-emerged so I tugged out my shirt and we swapped. There was a mutual respect there, but had I known he had hand-ball it I my attitude would have changed!"

In rain during a black nightenter that blackness as the form of forms.
When a moonless rainy night is not present,close eyes and find blackness before you.Opening eyes, see blackness.So faults disappear forever.
Wherever your attention alights,at this very point,experience.
Once a doctor, a very well known historian and an eminent scholar, was staying in a village. The postmaster, the old postmaster of the village, became curious about this old man, this doctor. He was curious to know what kind of doctor he is, so one day he asked, "What kind of doctor are you sir?"
The man said, "Doctor of Philosophy."
The old man had never heard about it. He was puzzled and he said, "I have never heard of any case of this disease here."
Don't laugh about it, because that old postmaster was right in a way - philosophy is a kind of disease. Of course, doctors of philosophy are not doctors; rather, they are the perfect victims of a disease.
Philosophy is not a specific disease, so you cannot think of it in terms of cases. It is born with the human being. It is as old as humanity or the human mind. And every human being is a victim, more or less - because thinking leads nowhere; or, it leads you in circles, vicious circles. You move much, and if you are expert you can move fast, but you reach nowhere.
This has to be understood very deeply, because if you cannot understand and feel this, you cannot take a jump into meditation. Meditation means the very anti approach - anti to philosophy. Philosophy means thinking and meditation means a state of non-thinking. They are polar opposites.
This is just human - to think about questions and to try to find out answers. But philosophy comes to no answers. Science comes to certain answers, religion comes to certain answers, but philosophy comes to no answers. And all the answers that philosophy appears to come to are just facades: if you dig deep in them you will find more questions and nothing else. So every answer leads to more questions - and this goes on and on.
Science comes to certain answers, because science depends not on thinking but on experimentation. Thinking is used as a help only, but the base is experimentation. That's why science has given some answers. Philosophers, known and unknown, have been working and working for centuries, but not a single answer, not a single conclusion has been achieved. It cannot be achieved. The very nature of thinking is such that if you use thinking as a help towards experimentation, something can be achieved; that's why science comes to certain answers.

Yesterday, the electronics giant announced its first mirrorless camera, the Canon EOS M, with hopes of making waves in an already crowded field that includes at least half-a-dozen of Canon's rivals: Nikon and its recently launched 1 J1 and V1 models, Panasonic and its popular Lumix DMC-G1, Sony's NEX line, Leica's retro-looking M series, in addition to players Pentax, Olympus, and Samsung.
The EOS M is a camera that resembles a compact and lightweight DSC. But like similar mirrorless cameras, it allows for the versatility and image quality of a DSLR by including interchangeable-lenses and better image resolution.
For the latter, the EOS M employs many of the technologies found in Canon's existing DSLR lineup, including the adoption of an 18-megapixel APS-C size CMOS image sensor (similar to the EOS 650D) and the in-house made DIGIC 5 Image Processor (found in the 5D Mark III).
Canon contends this image sensor and processor combination helps the EOS M shoot just over 4 frames per second. It also says the camera can produce images with excellent dynamic range, even in low light environments with its ISO range of 100-6400 (we'll be sure to test this).
The EOS M also lassos many of the features found in today's most popular point-and-shoot cameras like:
Canon is gunning to make the EOS M the brightest star in the expanding mirrorless camera division by embedding some of its much adored video technology made popular by the 5D Mark II. The EOS M incorporates Full HD 1920X1080 resolution video that is capable of filming at 30, 25, or 24 fps. The camera also offers up fast video and picture autofocusing with its Hybrid CMOS AF – the 31-point autofocus system is especially effective at zeroing in on moving targets or scenes.
Other video perks of the EOS M include:
At left is an adapter for the EOS M that allows for compatibility with Canon's EF and EF-S lenses.
At right is the EF-M 18-55mm f/2.5-5.6 IS STM lens made exclusively for the EOS M.
To accommodate the EOS M's mount (which it's coining EF-M), Canon created two unique lenses specifically made for its new mirrorless camera including the pancake-like EF-M 22mm f/2 STM and EF-M 18-55mm f/2.5-5.6 IS STM lenses. Canon has also made it easier for photographers to tap Canon's larger pool of EF and EF-S lenses by making a lens adapter that runs about $200 (USD).

The EOS M does not include an on camera flash, so Canon has created a lightweight unit that can be mounted on top of the EOS M. The lightweight Speedlite 90EX is advertised as having wireless capabilities, and is compatible with other EOS DSLRs.
The Canon EOS M will be bundled with the new EF-M 22mm f/2 STM at an estimated retail price of around $799.99 (USD). The camera will come in four colors including red, black, white, and silver, and will hit shelves in October.DxOMark will be sure to provide a full sensor and image quality review as soon as we get our hands on Canon's new mirrorless camera.

BSI sensors?
That can't be right. I've never heard of Sony using BSI image sensors. They only appear in some compacts and mobile phone cameras like the iPhone. BSI APS-C? that has to be an error. As for Canon, it looks like more of the same, stuck in the same place for the past 5-6 years, their APS-C sensors need a major overhaul. It's sad that a used Sony NEX C3 has an image sensor that beats the one in a Canon 7D.

Thanks for having noticed it and letting us know. Sony actually uses BSI sensor but only on its last Cybershot line cameras. Kind regards, Reply |

Guys demo will come with full release.
Test version, mod version etc = THE beta same thing different name pay now and get early access and it will be updated to the full version at release time.
We at HistorX are very looking forward to test the modding capabilities of rFactor2. So we'll be there for sure
Kindest regards
I will jump in for sure, and most likely a bunch of my fellows at SimJunkies.org aswell.
So bring it on. We are not modders but we await the 2nd installment with high hopes...
You'll see us refer to it as beta, test beta, modders beta, open beta and probably some other stuff. It really depends on the message being sent. Here, Gjon wants you to take the time to understand what this software is, which is why his post is filled with so many reasons for you not to get involved with it. And it was posted to give you plenty of time to read it.
No, you have mis-understood.
Yes you will NOT see a demo anytime soon.
Yes. It will also be updated during the beta with newer builds.
Hrm.. WHat? monye?
I like mods give me rf2.. please.
Today or tomorrow relase we not wait http://kepfeltoltes.hu/120110/tumblr...toltes.hu_.jpg
¿ 65€ ? doesn't... right?
Gjon said "Info pricing" was 45$ = ( 35€ || 1to1 apple rate...)
I´m not a kid anymore Tim, i have 35 years old, 2 kids, i hife, a house to take care, i like simulation, driving and modding and ISI (RF) is my favorite, i´m a big fan of your work but seem´s like you are treating us like little kids who dont know, dont understand thinks!!!! This kind of approach is letting me offended, What Gjon said it´s nothing new, everybody knows this is a beta and we already had a lot of time to read and understand it!!!!
Your are contantly avoinding answer a simple question: Will you release the beta today? Simple question no? Maybe, like i said in VirtualR the answer to this question could "calm down" poeple every day until you release the "test version"..... What i´m trying to say is sometimes honesty is important, take care.
Tiago, I would think they arent treating us like kids. I think they are being explicitly clear to all those people that dont get what a beta is.. Have you been involved in any betas in the last 4 years ? Day 1.... 2000 whining people.. this is broke, I cant play, this doesnt work ... cry cry .. etc etc... 98% of people that want a beta, actually just want to play it early. It few and far between that actually want to test, give pro-active feedback (Ie not whine), but indicate what they see to be issues and offer potential ideas for resolution.
The post was aimed at this 98% to ensure expectations are very clear .. people will bitch and moan as they are paying for a buggy version.. they will threaten to go to consumer affairs as they paid for something that doesnt work. Legally his post is a very clear disclaimer to the community on what you are paying for and should expect to get... Sad they have to do it, but i understand from a business point of view.
It would surprise me if the installer has a massive splash screen saying exactly the same thing.. before you click the "Pay" button, you will have to read and agree what you are paying for.
No issues here with the post, and excited to get the ball rolling, although reading Tims post and the "plenty of time to read it" i am thinking it maybe still weeks away.. (given doc files are being released to allow people to read and understand in advance.
They are filtering out information to build excitment (Marketting excersize), not to mention they would still be fine tuning and adding touches. All part of building hype around a release.. standard business practice really.
Fair Dinkum Gjon !!! Strewth .... Bloody Hell and Crikey ol' mate !!!!!
Fekkin' Hell, surely you've milked this goddamn delaying tactic for all it's bloody-well worth ????
Just release the frikkin' thing and stop all this cockin' around !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For the Love of Be-Jesus and all the bloody blessed saints !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!
Peace & Good Bloody Wishes
Guys I think we're getting a little crazy with this.
I have wanted to try RF2, it is clear that if.
What can not be is that if you do not like the answers they give us reach a point where you lose respect.
I think no more than the ISI guys feel like taking out the open beta, especially to continue working with more tranquility, the pressure to which they are submitting is already stifling.
P.S :Sorry for my English.
Greetings Tony.
I thought the beauty of the internet was that we escaped regional dialects? lol
Is that really necessary?
(referring to the unfortunately extremely ocker post above... take a deep breath mate...)

SKU: doug_sommers_shoot_dvd
Doug Sommers is a name synonymous with wrestling and "Pretty Boy" sat down to go on record about his glorious career. Breaking into the industry at the tender age of nine years old with the help of Harley Race, Sommers learned the art of wrestling the hard way and worked his way up the ladder in all the territories. Amarillo. Dallas. Minneapolis. Mid South. Florida. Anywhere and everywhere, and Sommers has tales to show for it as he talks about working with, and for, some of the biggest names wrestling has ever produced. Terry Funk. Verne Gagne. The Von Erichs. Dusty Rhodes. Captain Redneck Dick Murdoch. Leroy McGuirk. The Gilberts. The Guerreros. Bill Watts. Calling all wrestling historians, this is one interview that shouldn't go under the radar.Many of us fondly remember Doug from his days in the AWA and of course he spent a long time talking about his time in Gagne's Minnesota based promotion. "Pretty Boy" gives one backstage story after another that have never been heard on camera before. The Iron Sheik. The Midnight Rockers (Shawn Michaels & Marty Jannetty). Larry Zybsko. Greg Gagne. Curt Hennig. Scott Hall. Nick Bockwinkel. One name after another and no serious AWA fan should consider their collection complete without this incredible shoot. To top it off, Sommers gives his favorite road stories with his partner Buddy Rose and their manager Sherri Martel. In a word, this DVD is fun. It was fun to conduct and, for fans, it is fun to watch.

Kosher Side Dishes
Broccoli Slaw |
From Alex: This colorful, fresh, crunchy interpretation is a perfect complement to basic fried chicken, and more upscale fare too. I serve it at my dinner the night before the Oscars every year, a somewhat healthy alternative to the soul food I put on the rest of the buffet. More on this party later. This slaw is really gorgeous in a glass bowl as it's multicolored, richly toned, and full of inviting texture. Ingredients SLAW Directions Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat and add 1 teaspoon of salt per each quart (4 cups) of water. Place 2 cups ice cubes in a large bowl. Add the broccoli to the salted boiling water and blanch it for 1 minute exactly, until it turns bright green. Drain the broccoli in a colander. Quickly place the broccoli in the bowl with the ice cubes to discontinue further cooking. Notes Yield: 8 cups, or 6 to 8 servings KosherEye Note: We tried this with parve, tofu based sour cream. Delicious! Recipe, kosher, side dish |

The Focus Cayo Evo 5.0 is a rock solid machine that boasts performance and pro quality at a weekend warrior price tag. However, don't think for a second that the Focus CAYO Evo 5.0 is limited to recreational club riding only. The Cayo Evo is a full-blown race horse which offers an aggressive, chiseled frame that can sprint, corner, climb and descend with bikes that are double the price. On top of the race-ready geometry, the Cayo Evo frame is packed full of top-end features such as: a liquid-shaped designed top tube, lateral reinforced comfort seat stays, a tapered head tube, integrated cable adjusters, internal cable routing, full carbon dropouts, and a PF30 bottom bracket.
You can look all across the world and not find a more practical and reliable component group than Shimano Ultegra. The Ultegra outfit includes; derailleurs, shifters and brake levers. Ultegra series is pro-proven, and directly trickled down from the world-class Dura Ace group, bringing you a mechanism with the finest price-to-performance ratio. The power comes from a BB30 Focus branded FSA Gossamer crankset that is lighter, stiffer, and provides more ankle clearance than its GXP counterpart. Focus's house brand Concept Ex, makes up the entirety of the cockpit, including the handlebar, stem and saddle. The Fulcrum WH-CEX 6.5 CX wheelset brings stiffness, control, durability and speed to the Cayo Evo 5.0, while remaining relatively lightweight.
Whether you're looking for a race bred stallion to get you into your first road races, or simply looking to upgrade your aluminum bike to a sexy carbon build, the Focus Cayo Evo 5.0 is not a shabby choice.

Comments about Focus Cayo Evo 5.0 Bike 2013:
I bought this as an upgrade to an entry level Alluminum framed bicycle. It doesn't have the lightest frame on the market, or the lightest components. It does however feel rock solid on the road while being a mutch smoother ride than my old bike. I haven't had it long yet, and have unfortunately ridden it even less on the road (to cold and snowy) but the few rides I have been on have been enjoyable. It feels stable and secure on the road in turns, while lively in the uphill climbs. Shifting is smooth, accurate and fast. Couldn't be happier as a serious recreationaly rider, going for excercise, and endurance. I am planning a couple of century ride sportives this year and am quite comfortable beliving I have the right bike for the job.

After researching and hearing reviews I settled on buying a Focus. This deal on Jenson was by far the best I could find. I am impressed with both the service of Jenson and of the Focus itself. I could not wait to ride it and have been pleased so far.
I love the look of this bike and with Ultegra, the value cannot be matched. Bikes of this similar price that are full carbon usually come with much lower components. Setting up was easy after Jenson sent it and the only thing left to do was ride.
The bike is lightweight and fast yet still comfortable to just cruise around the city. I would recommend this over any other bike in its price range. Thanks Jenson.

Comments about Focus Cayo Evo 5.0 Bike 2013:
Right out of the box, this bike is a winner. Having owned several Focus bikes myself, I can attest to the high quality of their frames and builds. The Cayo Evo is a high-octane version of their Cayo frame, with an aggressive geometry and features borrowed from their Pro-level Izalco frame. The Cayo Evo is really well-constructed and operates like a professional bike – without the ridiculous pricing. If you're scared of carbon bikes... all I can say is that I've abused my carbon Focus road bikes... crashed 'em, stepped on em, and thrown em around and they've always come back without any cracks or problems whatsoever. Focus carbon bikes are really engineered to the max... nigh-indestructible.
The bike rides like a German automobile. Stiff, stable and responsive, yet smooth. Hopping on it made me want to push every corner harder! There was no frame flex when climbing out of the saddle and sprinting hard. As for the frame, the paint scheme seriously pops in person and presents a really stylish silhouette.
The Fulcrum wheels that come on this bike aren't remarkably lightweight but they are stiff and strong and that matters more to me as a power rider. I couldn't detect any flex coming from these wheels while cornering and sprinting. The stock cockpit – while generic, was comfortable, durable and easy to adjust, more than you can really ask for at this price.
The build kit is solid with the Ultegra drivetrain. The FSA crank shifted smoothly. The Concept brake set worked surprisingly well compared to actual Ultegra 6700 brakes. The modulation is just a little different and hardly noticeable between the two. Power is about the same. The only thing I could recommend is replacing the stock cables for high-end ones, and that would make this bike pretty close to perfect. If you're looking for a race bike that will last you many seasons, this really is a bike you can race out of the box!

LindaColoradoGreat Service!Thank you for a great transaction. They arrived quickly and were super. I have been looking all over for this size. Thank you again.posted Mar 17, 2005Link to this post
MaureneCaliforniaCaruso Steam RollersI have purchased the Caruso rollers from Folica on 2 separate occasions (different sizes). My experience with Folica has been great. They ship when promised and they have the best price on this item, including the price at Caruso. My only complaint is that one of the sizes of the rollers that I use the most cannot be purchased without buying the entire unit, steamer and all. Also, the sponge on the rollers dont hold up as well as Id like because of the steam I guess. All of this though is a Caruso problem, not Folica.posted Mar 15, 2005Link to this post
JanModesto, CaliforniaCaruso HairsetterJust replaced some old rollers with this order, but have been using the Caruso Steam Hairsetter system for many years. I finally replaced my old steamer with a new Ion version. Absolutely the most wonderful way to get & keep curls. My hair is long, straight & has no body, but this system creates the most spectacular curls (any size I want)and adds fullness. Curls dont go away until I wash em out. Because its steam heat & the curlers are foam, there is no processing damage to hair as opposed to electric rollers & curling irons, and in fact, actually improve your hairs healthy shine because of the moisture from the steam. My hairdresser always comments on the curls & health of my hair.By the way, Im a 54-year-old brunette with some gray, and even the grays respond to this system!I have recommended this curling system to many, many people whove asked if my hair is naturally curly or if its a perm!posted Mar 11, 2005Link to this post

TELNET (TELecommunication NETwork) is a network protocol used on the Internet or local area network (LAN) connections. It was developed in late 60s with RFC 15. Telnet is pretty old for login into remote system and it has serious security problem. Most admins will recommend using Open SSH (secure shell) for all remote activities. But you may find users who are still demanding telnet over ssh as they are comfortable with Telnet. Some users got scripts written in 90s and they don't want to change it. So what do you do when users demands telnet?

I love everything about this wallet. It's the perfect size to fit my iPhone, credit cards, and some cash. I like how the phone pocket is on the outside separate from the wallet part so that when I am reaching for my phone I don't have to open up the wallet part. The leather is incredibly soft and seems durable enough. I've had it for a few weeks and no scratches on it. Very satisfied with this purchase.

I love this simpleTB wristlet. It fits my iPhone 5s with a case in the front flap part. My credit cards are a little hard to get out when the phone is in the front part, but over all in love this wristlet! The only reason I gave it 4 stars is b/c of the price- it's a little pricey for the size of the item your a purchasing.

Young righties to square off when Phils host Friars
Cloyd gets call for Philadelphia opposite San Diego's Cashner
Though their longtime manager, Charlie Manuel, is gone and their playoff hopes have been all but extinguished, the Phillies are not giving up just yet.
Philadelphia is coming off a three-game sweep of the National League East-leading Braves and will play nine of its next 12 games at Citizen's Bank Park, beginning with Tuesday's series opener against the Padres. The Phillies won each of their three games against Atlanta by one run.
"I think it means a lot," Phillies interim manager Ryne Sandberg said on Saturday. "There are games to be played. And there are games to be won. But I think the quality of baseball and the improved baseball against a team like the Braves shows the resilience in the guys."
Tyler Cloyd will rejoin the Phillies' rotation in place of young right-hander Ethan Martin, who was 2-4 with a 6.90 ERA in seven starts and will finish the season in the bullpen. Cloyd has not started a game for the Phillies since Aug. 20, when he allowed five runs over six innings and was shouldered with the loss.
Andrew Cashner will start for the Padres, who will open their last road trip of the season after Monday's off-day, a 10-game swing through Philadelphia, Atlanta and Pittsburgh, coming off a three-game sweep of the Rockies.
Cashner allowed one run on 10 hits over seven innings in his last start against the Dodgers on Aug. 31. He will start Tuesday on nine days' rest, as the team is trying to curtail his innings.
After only throwing 69 2/3 innings last season, Cashner's most recent performance bumped him to 151 1/3 innings this season. He threw 119 pitches in his last start and didn't factor in the decision.
"I haven't thrown that many pitches before, and for [manager Bud Black] to show the confidence in me to let me do that ... that was great," Cashner said after the game. "It's been a huge year for me."
Cashner has a 2.77 ERA in eight starts since the All-Star break. In his past five road starts, he is 2-2 with a 3.77 ERA.
Padres: Rare feat for outfielders
• In the midst of their 2-1 win over the Rockies on Saturday, the Padres also witnessed a bit of history. All three of their starting outfielders -- left fielder Chris Denorfia, center fielder Alexi Amarista and right fielder Will Venable -- recorded an assist.
San Diego had not achieved such a feat since June 9, 1986, when Tony Gwynn, Kevin McReynolds and Carmelo Martinez each had an assist in one game.
"Three outfield assists from three different guys, it's pretty much unprecedented in baseball," first-base coach Dave Roberts, who works with the outfielders, said. "It's not always about the strongest arm. Our guys do a great job of getting to the ball, getting rid of it and trying to be accurate. I tip my hat to all three of those guys."
• On Sunday, Padres closer Huston Street improved to 14-for-14 in save opportunities over his last 22 appearances.
Phillies: Ruiz showing value
With his contract set to expire after the season, catcher Carlos Ruiz is giving the Phillies a reason to keep him around.
In his past 30 games, Ruiz is hitting .330 with nine doubles, four home runs, 16 RBIs and a .920 OPS. Ruiz said Saturday that he is willing to discuss his contract situation with the Phillies either before or after the end of the season. General manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said last week that it is possible, but not likely, that talks could begin later this month.
"I think we'll probably wait until the end of the year," Amaro said. "He's playing much better. I think there are times he's still pressing, but for the most part he's playing a lot more like 'Chooch.' We'll see."
Worth noting
• Jonathan Papelbon allowed a game-tying homer in the ninth inning Saturday night, but still picked up the win when Freddy Galvis hit a walk-off homer in the bottom of the inning. Papelbon has been credited with a blown save and a win in the same game three times this season, the most in the Major Leagues.
• Nick Hundley on Sunday became the sixth Padre to reach the 40-RBI mark this season, making the Padres tied for fourth-most 40-RBI players in the National League.

Vt. couple 'fought to the end' with killer
BURLINGTON — A Vermont couple who disappeared last year were the victims of an Alaska man who set out across the country intent on kidnapping and murdering someone and picked them because the layout of their house lent itself to an invasion, authorities said Monday.
Israel Keyes cut a phone line to test for the presence of an alarm system and wore a headlamp during what he called a "blitz" attack on the Essex home of Bill and Lorraine Currier in the dead of night, officials said at a news conference in Burlington.
Keyes died over the weekend in an Alaska jail, apparently in a suicide, as he awaited trial in another death in that state. Authorities say he confessed both crimes to investigators and may be responsible for five other killings around the country.
Keyes tied up the Curriers, drove them to an abandoned house, and shot one and strangled the other, authorities said. Both tried in vain to escape.
"By all accounts, they were friendly, peaceful, good people who encountered a force of pure evil acting at random," U.S. Attorney Tristram Coffin said.
Keyes flew from Alaska to Chicago on June 2, 2011, rented a car and drove almost 1,000 miles to Vermont, carrying a gun and silencer, authorities said. He spent three days in Vermont, even buying a short-term fishing license, officials said.
Keyes told investigators he chose the Curriers' home because it had an attached garage, no evidence of children or a dog, and the style of the house clued him in to the probable location of the master bedroom.
In preparing to break in, he cut the phone line to see whether it would trigger an alarm. He removed a fan from a window to get into the garage on June 8 and smashed a window into the house with a crowbar that had been hanging on the wall of the garage.
"Keyes then engaged in what he called a 'blitz' attack on the Curriers, and ran to the room he had earlier predicted was the bedroom. Keyes estimated it took him approximately five to six seconds to get from the broken entry door to the Curriers' bedroom," Chittenden County State's Attorney T.J. Donovan said. "During this time, Keyes wore a headlamp to provide lighting in the otherwise dark home."
After binding the two with zip ties, Keyes drove the Curriers, both in their 50s, to an abandoned house in Essex that he had already scouted. He tied Bill to a stool in the basement. Lorraine Currier had been left in the car and managed to escape. Keyes tackled the fleeing woman and brought her back to the house, Donovan said.
He shot Bill Currier in the basement with the silenced gun. He then sexually assaulted and strangled Lorraine Currier, Donovan said, his voice breaking.
"It's clear from the facts of this case that, though confronted with death, Bill and Lorraine Currier showed extraordinary bravery and courage and an extreme dedication and love to each other," Donovan said. "And they fought to the end."
Keyes placed the bodies in garbage bags that he covered with debris in the basement of the abandoned home, which was later demolished. After Keyes began speaking to investigators in April, FBI teams spent months searching the landfill in northern Vermont where the debris was taken. The remains were never found.
After the killings, Keyes left the Curriers' car in a parking lot and drove his rental car to Maine. He then returned to Vermont and noticed the crime scene tape around the Currier home.
Keyes told police he left Vermont and continued to follow the Currier case through the Vermont press. After his arrest in Alaska, he told authorizes he would stop cooperating if he was publicly linked to the Curriers.
He threw the gun he had brought from Alaska and the weapon he stole from the Curriers into a reservoir near Parishville, N.Y., where both were recovered by FBI dive teams.
Essex Police Lt. George Murtie, who interviewed Keyes about the Curriers' killing, described his demeanor as "very calm" with "no display of emotion."
When Keyes died, he was being held for the slaying of 18-year-old Samantha Koenig, who was abducted from a coffee kiosk in Anchorage in February. He was later arrested in Texas after using her debit card.
Authorities have said money appeared to be just a partial motive in Keyes' crimes. Lorraine Currier's purse was missing from her home.
In addition to the Curriers and Koenig, Keyes told authorities he had killed five other people, four in the state of Washington and one in New York.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Vermont is a step closer toward meeting the goal of ensuring that everyone in the...

Internships are considered a must-have for many college students (and even some high schoolers) looking for a leg up in getting a job upon graduation. They hunt to find them, compete to get them, and strive to multiply them–all for good reason.
Internships are real workplace experiences that build and showcase the job knowledge, skills, and behaviors essential to career success.
So why do so many complain about those internships once they've been landed?
- The work is too menial. I feel like a lackey.
- I don't have enough autonomy.
- There's too much/too little/no supervision.
- I'm left on my own to figure out what to do.
- I do all this work and don't get paid (or am paid a paltry sum).
Welcome to the business world!
There is often a misconception that, once you get a real job with a real title, all the work is meaty, independent initiatives are applauded, your supervisor is supportive, and the compensation commensurate with the work. Sorry this isn't so, but internships can help you recalibrate your expectations.
Internship Lesson #1: Teach yourself to see and understand the realities of the work place and what drives it.
You can't see what's really going on unless you look. Too many student interns limit their focus to the work they are asked to perform and not the experience as a whole.
Initially, there's good reason for that: the tasks are new to them and they want to do them well. That's a good thing but not the only thing.
The real meat is between the bun.
Internship Lesson #2: Learn what did or did not fit you about the company, the work, and/or the environment and why.
Your internship helps clarify what you need from a job to perform at your best and stay motivated.
That means discovering are how effectively you:
- Handle ambiguity and too little/too much direction
- Perform under pressure
- Communicate with executives, managers, your boss, and coworkers
- Overcome flagging self-confidence and self-doubt
- Use strengths and overcome weaknesses
- Make independent decisions and come up with new ideas
- See your work in the context of the company's big picture
- Influence or take the lead when there's an opportunity
- Stay positive and avoid getting caught up in office gripes
- Put knowledge and skills to use in the right way
You need to make your internship as much about discovering who you are within the dynamics of the job as you do about future line items on your resume.
Here comes the judge.
This week I served on a panel to judge internship presentations at a local university. The fifteen students in this six hour undergraduate course interned with major corporations like AT&T, Guardian Life, Allstate, Abercrombie & Fitch and small businesses including a restaurant, spa/pool company, law office, and long-term care facility. Most students were business and/or marketing majors.
The students who stood out were those who discovered the most about themselves while interning. One learned he didn't want to be in law because he knew he couldn't defend someone he knew had committed the crime. Another loved the company she interned with (they wanted to hire her) but realized she wanted to work for a large firm. Two other students surprised themselves at how effective they were talking to front-line employees as well as the company president, seeing how they were able to adapt their communications styles successfully. Others learned how it felt to own and defend their web design assignments.
Win-win internships
There are no bad internships unless you choose not to learn anything from them. Every business is fascinating in its own right. Each has a unique business model, leader-driven culture, performance history, cadre of employees, and customers/clients. No matter what your internship role, you are always in a position to observe, explore, and contribute. So whenever you can, take a big bite and savor the flavor.

This is all the rage among young drug addicted mothers in Schenectady. It is an event like none other, in which a woman snorts a line of cocaine off of her infant. This can only be done with an infant as when the child reaches toddler-hood, it is considered sharing. Once relegated to the coke-whore sub culture, it has been brought to the forefront by the news media in light of the one successful prostitution sting conducted this year by the worlds most corrupt police department, Schenectady's finest. Unfortunately, this is not Vegas, so what happens here does not stay here. Look for this activity to come to a town near you....
Once at a party, I saw a girl attempt to perform a Schenectady snort....and she almost dropped her baby!

Why is it measured in milliwatts and not kilowatts?
Phoronix: Linux 3.11 May Lower Intel Power Consumption
It's still being investigated, but early indications are that the Linux 3.11 kernel is consuming less power at least for Intel CPUs...
Why is it measured in milliwatts and not kilowatts?
Values are the same and considering energy usage of modern laptops, it's easier to show it in mW.
Edit: I guess, I have been trolled. (-_-)'
Last edited by flecht; 07-26-2013 at 05:59 PM.
So, it uses less power, but takes longer to complete x264 test (relative to 3.9). Perhaps integrating the curve for total energy used would be a nice idea?
What we should be seeing, especially with haswell, is more dynamic power states. I realise this was with ivb, but I'd IMAGINE that intel is looking to make the kernel work best with their latest chips.
Also need to see how the work towards overall platform power reduction is going. Hopefully enough time has passed since the new framework (around 3.6, IIRC) for querying and setting component states for at least some of the drivers to have updated.
total power consumption (per task, like frames per Joule for the games and maybe per many tasks in parallel to see where the offset is) and idle consumption would be nice... Will the offset from many graphs and the idle pc be the same? and some kind of explanation what the "O" is on the "time graph". is it time for the x axis? is it the same scale for all of the lines?
i know you are still doing tests and its not gonna be christmas soon. Its just what intrigues me.

Now ... what city is next for pizza marauders?
TXCraig1I'm loving these pictures, and that pie at Pizza Town is my kind of pie. Ok, I think I know who many of the people are, but not sure who pizzablogger is. Also, two guys (one with glasses, one without), they look like brothers, who are they. Also, big guy with crewcut, can't figure out who that is. I think I'm good on all the rest.


text: AMD 780G/SB700 + AMD Phenom X3 is/will be definitly a great platform that I am looking forward to building a system with, e.g. for my parents. What would have been interesting is the Compiz performance, especially with you using Ubuntu Hardy that's using the latest Compiz 0.7.2 release which (0.7 and newer) haven't seen any tests with fglrx yet. I however will be doing some R580 + Compiz git tests later today/this week.

Homer paid the New York Times crossword puzzle writer and editor to hide an apology in there for Lisa. All was forgiven.

[FONT=Book Antiqua]He passes to Moses - He shoots, he scores![/FONT]
Mummy of the raincoat is a gigantic trollop.
I thought this was a pretty solid episode; I found myself laughing quite a bit. I loved the use of "Word up" during the crossword scene, nicely placed. And homer's comment, "you know, for a bar bookie, you're awfully judgmental" really got me gigglin.
"Woke up at 9.55am. Soon as I woke up, I looked at Suzanne and she looked at me. I said, 'Did I tell you about the immune system?' Suzanne starting laughing, I said, 'it's amazing.' She said, 'Not now.'"
Good ending. Thanks for the 4-1-1, Rocketboy!
My favorite part (did like the "Word Up" montage, too) was the tribute to the words removed from the dictionary, especially the pause and louder clapping for "hootenany" (I think that was the word) at its end. Why did you have to die, mimeograph?
"That's what Sheev said."
i thought it was a cute episode. the ending touched my heart with the Homer / Lisa moment
Looking for CW 2010 Sidious and TX-20...if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. thanks
I didn't see the new episode. I was watching the 7:30 re-run, which was the worst use ever of Denis Leary in any film or TV show. It was such a total waste of time, I couldn't sit through a second one.
Though occasionally it surprises a little, this show needs to be shot. It went from the best TV show at the time (and still one of the best of all time) to one of the worst over the past ten years. Even if you hated the Seinfeld finale, what's happened to The Simpsons is exactly why Jerry Seinfeld gave it the axe before it got too bloated.
It's sad that the direct-to-DVD releases show there's still a lot of mileage in Futurama, yet that's the one that got canceled.
Tommy, close your eyes.
This week's one went back to the social commentary style; the two stories weren't about the same issue, but they certainly showed how problematic some aspects of society today have become. Not really a "funny" episode, but a good one. No attempt to cover up the "Mapple" names, and the ethnic stereotyping sadly was too close to reality by some people.
Liked the chalkboard-couch gag, too (but Bart's chalkboard phrase was a precursor for the tone of the show).
"That's what Sheev said."
IMO, this was a supremely lazy episode. The "social commentary" on both sides didn't fit the tone of the series at all, it didn't fit the characters, and it didn't provide laughs. This one goes on the turd shelf next to Saddlesore Galactica. It felt to me like, right from the chalkboard gag, they didn't have the teeth to deal with the jokes here, the topics were over their head and required either more aggressive jokes or defter writing. And the level of convolution to get main characters from point A to B was shameful.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
"In Brooklyn, a castle, is where dwell I"
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
this weeks episode was alright, not a huge fan of it. the only funny part was when Homer blew up the bridge that lead to the Duff Beer Factory.
Looking for CW 2010 Sidious and TX-20...if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. thanks
Homer puts on black gloves in an episode the same weekend that OJ's verdict comes out? Hmm...
"That's what Sheev said."

So, Is Unfair Park dead? Maybe it's my browser, but this thing seems all screwy.
Anyway, this goes to my point about utilities, they are distinct markets from free markets, and privateering in them can be quite pernicious. Gov't need to do what it do, and stay out of truly free markets, and concern itself only with crimes against people.
