All this Wayland progress looks nice, but I can't even test it until there's an Nvidia blob for Wayland. Nouveau doesn't work with my gt240 ddr5 card, so the proprietary driver is my only choice if I want to have graphical desktop...
Phoronix: GTK+ Is Becoming Very Usable With Wayland
The state of the GTK+ tool-kit for the Wayland Display Server is now ready for day-to-day use...
All this Wayland progress looks nice, but I can't even test it until there's an Nvidia blob for Wayland. Nouveau doesn't work with my gt240 ddr5 card, so the proprietary driver is my only choice if I want to have graphical desktop...
you can run vesa just to see wayland for kicks. the blob wouldn't be available for at least a year.
So after all Mir was a good thing to stir up competition
Nvidia did say at a point that they will not support (ever) wayland, so if you dont want to develop yourself the nouvou support or somebody else does it, or you buy another card I guess you will never ever be able to use wayland.
But maybe they reverted their statement since? I would think they try to do that, because they have now their Nvidia-Linux with the Nvidia-output server (ubuntu / mir).
So I guess the xorg developers cant hinder that ubuntu will fork their drivers and make it work on the mir server, but the other way around it will not happen I guess.
I hope ubuntu will overdue them and they fail in managing all their forking work and get buggy. I would wish that for them.
One of the most annoying aspects about Mir, is having to deal with everyone who inevitable attributes all post-Mir Wayland developments to it's announcement. While there surely was some unification spurred by Canonical's retarded choice to divide one of the most fundamental pieces of the Linux desktop environment, the Wayland progress you're seeing now is due to many months of work gone on before that announcement.
It is rumored that NVidia is writing a EGL, DS-agnostic driver that will benefit both Mir and Wayland (http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...tem&px=MTMyMTI). Let us hope this is the case and that AMD will follow suit.
They (AMD) will follow suit - primarily the reason being is that most people don't give a rat's ass for powerful GPUs on their laptops anymore and Intel HD is more than enough for anyone but serious gamers. Intel HD's drivers are already open source and actively worked on to get them into tip top shape, with similar performance to their Windows counterpart. Intel also back Tizen which will run on Wayland and of all the wannabe platforms that competed with Android, about the only one that stands a chance to cut out a piece of the market is Tizen running atop Linux/Wayland w/a HTML5 development platform for most apps as well as a C++ for native apps (i.e. gaming). While at it, Linux also gains a killer display server on the desktop - Wayland atop which Gnome and KDE will run. Win-win across the board (except maybe for those NIH people at Canonical .
Finally things are coming together on desktop side of Linux.

Emergency NumbersPhone Book (Must be on-campus or have a valid network account)
Renewable Energy
To meet our current energy needs, Saint John's has invested and continues to look towards creating renewable energy on campus. These projects not only provide our campus with clean energy, but also offer the chance for students, faculty, and staff to learn about and research these new technologies.
Completed in December 2009, the Saint John's Abbey Energy Farm is the third-largest ground-mounted photovoltaic array in Minnesota. The panels annually provide 4% of our energy needs and can offset up to 20% of peak power requirements. The solar farm was made possible by a two million-dollar grant from Xcel Energy's Renewable Development Fund, Saint John's Abbey, and Westwood Renewables.
The Saint John's Abbey Energy Farm...
- consists of over 1,800 solar modules
- produces 575,000 kWh annually (enough to power 65 American homes)
- has a solar tracking system that enables it to produce 15% more energy than a static panel
- avoids over 400 tons of CO2 emissions per year
- left 80% of the 3.9 acre farm undisturbed during and after construction
One of our alumni, Steve Fait '94, was a writer and producer of The Man with the Golden Sun, which was created for the "Putting the Sun to Work for Minnesota" film contest, presented by Solar Works for Minnesota and Environment Minnesota.
Although Saint John's doesn't currently have a wind turbine, we have been researching the viability of wind energy on campus. With advances in technology and viable sites marked out, wind energy looks to be a very realistic option and would be a major step as Saint John's continues to move towards carbon neutrality.
A single 2.0 MW wind tubine...
- could provide enough enough electricity to power the entire Saint John's campus in moderate wind conditions.
- could produce 30% - 50% of our total electricity needed on an annual basis.
Other on-campus energy sources:
Co-generation steam
As the on-campus Power Plant heats and cools our buildings, it also creates approximately one-fourth (25%) of the electricity consumed on campus. Co-generation means there are two uses for the steam. The primary role of steam production is to heat and cool our buildings; the electricity is a side benefit. Our boilers produce high pressure steam, which spins turbines to generate electricity. The turbines drop the steam from high pressure steam down to the low pressure steam that is used by campus buildings.

St. Nicholas is a Baroque church, the interior of which was inspired by the chapel of St. Louis-des-invalides in Paris. The delicate stucco decoration was executed by Bernardo Spinetti, and the frescos by Peter Adam the Elder. The sculptures are by Antonín Braun.
In 1781 the decoration inside St. Nicholas was removed after emperor Josef II ordered the closure of all monasteries without a social function. After some time, in 1870, St. Nicholas became Russian Orthodox.
During the second World War Czech army units were stationed at St. Nicholas, and working alongside artists of the day, the troops were set to work restoring the church. Much of what we see today is thanks to their meticulous work.
After the war, St. Nicholas was handed over to the Czech Hussite movement, with whom it remains.
It wasn't until 1901, when the Krenn House was demolished, that St. Nicholas's lovely white façade became visible to the rest of the Old Town Square. It simply gleams, hit by the sun during the day and lit by strong white lights at night.
St. Nicholas serves both as church and as a magnificent venue for classical concerts.
During the winter the interior of the church is heated, but it is advisable to wear warm clothing for the concerts.

The top four Super Stock positions ran real close for most of their first heat with the Justin Logesdon 07 Brian Gleason 64 Todd Stone 28 and Caledonias Brian Gordon 17 all being so skilfully driven around Wyomings fast double groove that the Wyoming fans were leaning forward with amazement! No caution until the back of the packs 36 Tommy Bellanca stock came off turn 4 too hot on lap 4. Gordons 17 manoeuvred up to take the heats win.
The S.S.T two heats were won by the E1 of Ron Williams and top points leader Patti Pruitts #8 driven by husband Billy Ray Pruitt.
Greg Utberg was kind and generous to bring his #55 S.S.T. over to the fans at intermission. The fans got to meet Greg and look over and walk around the 55 Love Excavating sponsored open wheel mod parked on the start finish line!
Right off the hop as Wyomings 4 cyl feature barley got the green, on the first turn, TJ Drennans #3 WASP got jammed into a check up ½ way through corners 1 and 2. But the Drennan crew found that the damage to the front left tie rod area of the Verwyse sponsored #3 was too much for a quick fix to continue in the race. As 6 laps rolled by, Otis Bradshaws 00 moved from running at the back of the top 5 cars to a 4th on corner 4 and again by running on the outside the 00 got up to 3rd.
Over the next few laps the Bradshaw Racing sponsored 00 moved into 2nd place then into 1st with the top 6 lead cars all tightly packed in pursuit. No cautions gave Otis his chance to pull away from them and as the field thinned out Gert MacDonalds 33 got into 2nd and Mike Bradshaws 02 got into 3rd which was the way they finished. The 00, 33 and 02.
Early on in the Mini feature there was a horrific hit on the corner 4 wall by Amy Becker in her #86 Mini Cup as a result of the Minis checking up. Amy was o.k. but forced to retire from the feature. Robert Micoli was once again this week forced to dash into the pits because of mechanic problems. The top four Sr. winners were: 8 Kris Haman, 48 Chuck Bernoski, 24 Robbie Micoli and the 94 of Michelle Becker. The Jr. winners were the 95 of Robby Becker, 5 of Johnny Scott and the 14 of Daniel Majchrzak.
And again the tightly spaced 07 64 28 and 17 Super Stock 4 car group ran together lap after lap but now in their 25 lap feature. Then Todd Stone got out in front with Brian Gordon on Todds #28 heels for the next 8 laps. But as Stone ran up high going towards corner 3, Gordons 17 didnt slow down enough which spun out Todd Stones 28 and they both went to the back on the restart.
First time racer rookie Justin Logesdon once again took the green from the pole position as he did when the race started but this time Justins 07 quickly got out in front where he stayed to win with Todd Stone getting back up to take a 2nd and the Mead Supply and Volland Electric sponsored 49 of Jeff Merritt getting a 3rd. An elated young heart pounding first feature win Justin Logesdon proudly took to the mic to thank his family and to even to call out Wyomings 50/50 winners too! Mike Chenaille won the Street (Pure) Stock in his #20.
The SST feature was as always at N.Y. States famous Wyoming speedway, real fast and very exciting. Start: 07 27 55 E1 72 91 2 0 01 8 18 00 43 77. Finish: 8 01 91 0 27 00 55 43 77 2 E1 07 18 72. Early on Billy Ray got wife Pattis #8 way out in front and Billy Ray kept Pattis
SST well ahead for the win.
And after the features and an amazing amount of FREE weekly giveaways, the fans were treated to a real light hearted fun round of the Bull Rings JUNKYARD HOCKEY!

Looking to even things up, Rays turn to Price
Lackey aims to give Red Sox commanding 2-0 edge in ALDS at Fenway
The Red Sox and Rays added yet another chapter to their playoff history in Game 1 of the American League Division Series, as Boston cruised to a 12-2 victory. With both teams returning to action at 5:30 p.m. ET on TBS on Saturday, Game 2 is as close to do-or-die for the Rays as you can get at this juncture.
Just don't tell that to the Red Sox, who are still of the mindset that they are the underdogs and will take to the field on Saturday hoping to follow up on an outstanding offensive effort.
"You've truly got to play like your back is against the wall every single game," said Red Sox left fielder Jonny Gomes, who delivered a key two-run double in the fourth inning. "We talked about it earlier with momentum in the playoffs, and that pretty much is what wins games, is momentum. We can't take our foot off the gas pedal."
Consider this: Teams have gone up 2-0 in the ALDS 22 times and advanced in 18 of them. For a Rays team that looked all out of luck in a dismal series-opening contest marred by ineffective starting pitching and shaky defense, that's odds they don't want to be going up against.
"I've also learned one other thing, or main thing regarding baseball: Twenty-four hours can make a huge difference," said Rays manager Joe Maddon, whose club won three consecutive elimination games in three different cities just to get to this series. "That's just one game, baby. That's just one. We'll be back tomorrow, I promise you. We'll be ready to play. We will not be affected mentally by tonight's game.
"So it happens once in a while. Normally when it happens during the regular season, I just say throw that one in the garbage can. And being that's the first of five, let's do the same thing now."
The Rays will next turn to ace David Price, who admitted on Friday he gets even more amped up when facing the Red Sox and Yankees, with their season hanging in the balance. That's a familiar spot for Price, who pitched a complete-game in Arlington earlier this week and has never been one to shy away from the bright lights.
"I really believe that with him, what he did in Texas a couple of nights ago, is really going to benefit him as a Major League pitcher now and in the future," Maddon said of Price, who is 6-1 with a 1.88 ERA and two complete games in 10 starts at Fenway Park. "If there's any mental hurdles to overcome, he overcame them on that specific night.
"I'm really eager to see his next performance, because I think it's going to be as good as he can be based on what he's done, where his confidence is right now and this time of the year. He's very jacked up about this whole thing."
Red Sox starter John Lackey figures to be as well. Asked if it will be tough to keep calm in such an important postseason atmosphere, Lackey said, "No, I'm going to be emotional. I'm going to be fired up. It's part of the way it is. That's part of the reason I'm still pitching."
Lackey is 12-7 with a 4.39 ERA in 21 games started against Tampa Bay over his career, but he's been exceptional at Fenway Park this season, going 6-3 with a 2.47 ERA in 13 games.
"Every game's big," said second baseman Dustin Pedroia, as the Red Sox shift their gaze to Saturday. "Every pitch is big. That's what the playoffs are all about. One pitch can change everything."
Rays: Hellickson slated for potential Game 4 start
Struggling starter Jeremy Hellickson was added to the postseason roster and will start Game 4, if necessary.
Maddon said the assignment could change if Hellickson has to work in relief before then, but for now, Hellickson is set to start on Tuesday. Maddon picked Hellickson over Chris Archer because of "little esoteric stuff" regarding the way Hellickson matches up with Boston's lineup. Hellickson has made three solid starts against the Red Sox this year, going 1-0 with a 3.44 ERA and 20 strikeouts over 18 1/3 innings.
Red Sox: Doubront transitions into bullpen role
Boston added Felix Doubront to their ALDS roster, and the lefty will work out of the bullpen, a role he initially wasn't thrilled about. But an end-of-season talk with Red Sox manager John Farrell helped ease the transition.
"We looked at Felix's ability to give us multiple innings," said Farrell. "If we were to get in a situation where it was a lengthy rain delay and we need multiple innings to start back up. ... It was more the ability to go multiple innings and a guy who has had a very good year for us."
Worth noting
• The Red Sox put on a touching on-field tribute to the victims, heroes and first responders of April's Boston Marathon tragedy prior to Friday's game.
• All starting nine batters in Boston's lineup Friday recorded at least one hit and run scored, which is just the third time in baseball postseason history that any team has done that. The last time it was done? The 1936 Yankees.
• The two clubs are tied 4-4 all-time in postseason play.
• Tampa Bay's four hits in Game 1 marked its fewest in a playoff game since being held to two hits in Game 2 of the 2010 ALDS versus Texas.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Eye-catching elegance!
I actually am a teacher and used the New York pocket invitation for our history academic event, Night of the Notables. WOW! What an impact it is going to make when our guests open them up. I was so pleased that the customer service agent followed up to ensure the image quality was its absolute best. They also worked within my budget, which I really appreciated! I'll be back for next year's invitations...
Gorgeous Invitations
My fiance and I had Magnetstreet recommended to us by his cousin who was married last year. We ordered our Save The Dates and were so happy with the service that we ordered our invitations as well! My only complaint was that the numbers of our items were slightly off-- when all was said and mailed, we were left with about 7 extra invitations, ZERO envelopes, and about 20 extra reply cards-- I think there might have been a mixup in the inventory when they compiled our order. I would have complained to the company but anyone who has been a bride-to-be with a full time job knows that there is little time for customer service battles, especially when you're at your deadline for sending those invites.. That, combined with the groom's mother having a couple extra ivory colored envelopes that fit our invites lying around, we were able to send our last few invites despite the envelope shortage.
Despite that little envelope snafu, I still highly back the company. The online design tools are spectacular such that I felt confident ordering my invites/reply cards, knowing exactly what they would look like before they even came. Both our Save The Date Magnets and our Invitations got rave reviews, and we will surely be returning to order our Thank You cards after our special day.
Great product and great delivery
We ordered our sample invitation and were very pleased. Our invitation allowed for 3 photos. I was concerned how they would look, but the quality was great. We had to adjust/crop the photos after seeing the sample, but that was easy. I thought the quality of the invitation and the envelope were great too. The slot for the inserts was smaller than I expected, but it is exactly what they describe. Look at the dimensions if you are looking to create your own inserts. My order was very timely. I needed to order additional invitations and they were delivered within a week. I would recommend this website and the pocket invitations to a friend. For the cost, it was a great product.
Got some great reviews!
My fiance and I are so pleased with the outcome of our invitations! The customization process took some time to get it exactly how we wanted however it was not difficult. We were able to add all the things we wanted to include into the invitation and were able to make the colour choices work with our theme. We were espcially surprised at the size of the actual invitation when we received our Just One. It is hard to visualize what size it is from the website so ordering a Just One is definitely recommended. We have received some really great reviews from our guests where many of them have said that they have never received an invitiation like ours! The only thing that we would have liked to have had an option with is to have envelopes for the reply cards. Many of our guests would not like to have their info displayed in the postcard style. However we got creative and made it work for us. We would definitely recommend MagnetStreet to others.
Absolutely Beautiful, Very High Quality, Fast Delivery
The colors and quality of this invitation are absolutely outstanding. The card stock does NOT look cheap, unlike so many other companies, and the pictures I submitted were printed beautifully and with such vibrant color to them!
My dad wasn't too keen on the price of them, as my parents were kind enough to buy them for me, but once they came in, he actually was very impressed. He said he has never seen a wedding invitation of this quality and that they are DEFINITELY worth every penny.
I'm thankful I did my research and decided to use Magnet Street. Oh, and did I mention I got them in only just over a week? And during the Christmas mailing rush at that!
Absolutely beautiful invitations, very high quality, and very fast delivery.

covering, including or involving the the entire planet Earth.
To help explain Global Warming to people who think "weather" is the same as "climate," the word "omniterran" was formed to replace "global" since too many people (apparently) think if something takes place anywhere on the Earth, it is "global." Omni meaning "all" + terra meaning "earth." So, Omniterran means "all of the Earth."

We've had a good run of haiku over this last month, but with the end of May, comes the end of haiku time for now. We shall put our dictionaries aside, look dangerously into the summer sun, and amuse ourselves (and each other) in other ways. In case you're new and just dropping in, or even forgot some of our fine creativity during May, let's revisit the best of the best to inspire you! First, charleneely dazzled us with Star-ku. Next, Xexus solved my lunch woes with sushi haiku. Although music proved to be a daunting challenge for many, no1 showed much dedication in making it work... with a bit of practice. This week, as promised, no1 has helped with the theme (which means no1, you can't win, sorry about that ;). We've got a long weekend coming up so we have not one, but two themes for you to contemplate your creative energies on. TOPIC ONE: FUN IN THE SUN (tjschaeffer, lichme) Tell us what you're planning, or what you've done to celebrate this upcoming three day weekend (for many of us). BBQs? Beaches? Shopping? The cool indoors of the theater to see the Avengers (finally)? Let us know. TOPIC TWO: MILITARY SALUTE (thanks codex and lichme!) As Memorial Day is designed as a serious holiday, this category is to nod to our heroes in the military. (Please don't start any political debates, you have two categories here. ;) So now on with the questions. inkycatz, can you tell me about haiku one last time? Traditional haiku is comprised of seventeen syllables in three phrases of 5, 7 and 5 respectively. Do I have to write something for both? Absolutely not. How long do I have? I'll be out for the weekend! One, good for you - I will be too! Second, Wednesday, May 30 is the deadline. That gives you some time to get back from your weekend and post on Tuesday!
#1 Three day weekend, yay! Encased meats, beer, burgers, beer! Oh wait. I'm working. #2 My big brother floats somewhere on the Persian Gulf like many before.
#1 I'm on call this week. No holiday plans for me, just waiting for calls. #2 Honor the soldiers who suffer the scars of war while praying for peace.
Just a reminder, still allowed to add your haikus today!
#1: avenger burgers hulk smash open beer bottles dude, where is my car? #2: they sought not glory only to defend country may peace find you all.
#1 Grass is getting tall I should really cut it soon Meh, pass me a beer #2 War is not a game They do not get to respawn The price of freedom
#1 Fun! Sun! Time for beach! Swim. Play. Enjoy today 'cause tomorrow...sunburn. #2 Freedom comes from those who fight for us, so honor them, every day.
These are both based on my family's actual Memorial Day weekend activities. #1: Jewish in Georgia: we have the pool to ourselves on Sunday morning. #2: Air Force museum-- how do I explain this stuff to my three-year-old?
#1 SeaWorld, the Zoo, and bikinis on the beach too. Summer in So-Cal. I wish they all could be California girls, yeah. David Lee Roth, the MAN! A message of love? A message of long delays? A message of hope? Woot changed the web-site. Relax, people! It's not like they hooked up with your sister! I love haiku fun. The five-seven-five combo allows for so much!
Fun in the summer Sun beach sun beach sun beach sleep Wake up sun beach We remember now Something never forgotten Tears hurt but can heal
#1 God Bless the soldiers They are willing to just die We are free indeed #2 Love hearing my wife Tells me what to do today Loving life truly #3 To take flight aloft To leave gravity behind is gratifying
End of the month now. Oh how the time does fly by! Decisions to make.
inkycatz wrote:End of the month now. Oh how the time does fly by! Decisions to make.
If I'm not too late, I would just like to tell you That your games are fun
What a way to wrap up spring and head into summer! Excellent job, everyone, although some of you I feel the need to call out your excellence a little more than others. lichme - you rocked this! Awesomeness on not just one, but two themes! tjschaeffer, you made me long for the sunlight to return, as well as fondly laugh in remembrance of all the lightly clad people I saw this weekend who are undoubtedly regretting those fashion choices now. codex, as I am a former military youngling, your haiku touched hearts. As summer sneaks in and plants an icy drink and grilled dish into our minds, I say "stay tuned" for summer fun yet to come! No reruns here, that's for sure! ;)
inkycatz wrote: tjschaeffer, you made me long for the sunlight to return, as well as fondly laugh in remembrance of all the lightly clad people I saw this weekend who are undoubtedly regretting those fashion choices now.
As a person with a ghostly complexion, I can safely say that one need not be lightly clad to feel the sun's wraith. I've been known to get sunburn while wearing sunblock and sitting in the shade.

HBO has released a new trailer for the third season of Game of Thrones. Check out he trailer below Fans of the book, what can we expect to see in this third season? Mania will be covering each and every episode of the new season. Check back and comment on each episode.
The new season returns on March 31st at 9pm, only on HBO.
As usual, can't wait for this. Great trailer.

Man, I couldn't wait for this season. I don't know how they play on filming the unfilmable and the most shocking yet. I mean the budget and what they've done with it concerning both the direwolves and the dragons has been pretty phenomenal but how are they going to film Tyrion - after using a potion given to him by Varys - riding on the back of a mind controlled direwolf in a battle against one of Daenary's dragons? That is going to be epic.
Ooooh YEAH. This is going to be so good. Also I love the song, Bones by Ms Mr. Sorta wish they made Tyrion noseless, but meh. Small complaint for one of the best shows on tv.
Oh yeah. This season is going to blow people's minds wide open like an H-Bomb. Shit ius going down for every character and none of it is good. Winter is coming and the blood will flow like last Summers wine.

09.06.2013 /
Red Bull KTM riders had another top day out at the MX Grand Prix of France with both Tony Cairoli and Jeffrey Herlings winning the MX1 and MX2 GPs respectively.
For the Italian Tony Cairoli it was a 2-1 outing on the very technical track at Ernee for his fifty-ninth career Grand Prix victory. He had an epic battle with French favorite Gautier Paulin in the opening moto, conceding by just over one second to the Frenchman only in the final meters of the race. Then in the second moto, Cairoli shot out of the starting gates to grab the holeshot with the KTM 350 SX-F and led during the entire race. He was more than 10 seconds ahead when he crossed the line. Cairoli now has a 56-point lead in the championship standings and has laid the foundation for a solid season where he hopes to take his seventh world title.
Tony Cairoli: "In the first moto I had some trouble with a lapped rider near the end but Paulin found a way past him. I tried to come back but Paulin was riding very well and it wasn't easy to pass on this track. We pushed hard in the second race. After I got the holeshot in the second moto I was able to push to make a 10-second gap but then I just tried to put in some good laps and not make any mistakes."
Cairoli's MX1 factory teammate Ken de Dycker of Belgium picked up a pair of fifth places. Like Jordie Tixier in MX2, he also finished his MX1 in sixth position. De Dycker said he was quite satisfied to be consistent this weekend although he had wanted to be back on the podium with his KTM 450 SX-F. "But training went well, and so did qualifying so after two not so good starts I'm quite happy. My riding is okay and there was not too much difference in the speed compared to the first guys," he said.
Meanwhile in MX2 and in what was possibly one of the toughest races of his career so far, Jeffrey Herlings achieved what the pre-race pundits said was improbable. He won both motos after a mega crash in Saturday's qualifying that saw him badly bang up his ankle, shoulder and wrist. He was mobile only on crutches but rallied to take his eighth GP win for 2013 with an epic 1-1 result.
Only classified twenty-seventh after qualifying, Herlings shot out of the gates in the opening moto, took an early lead with the KTM 250 SX-F and even though he was up against hungry French riders, hung on all the way to the flag. He crossed the line just under three seconds ahead of second placed Dylan Ferrandis.
Herlings found himself in fourth place at the first corner of the second moto after a great start by his teammate Jordi Tixier. But while Herlings worked his way up to the lead, Tixier crashed and had to fight his way back from way down the order to eventually finish ninth. Herlings meanwhile took control of the lead with just over 16 minutes to go and never looked back. The Dutch teenager has won every moto except one in 2013 and has a commanding lead of 110 points in the MX2 World Championship, Tixier is second.
Jeffrey Herlings: "I had a very big crash on Saturday and some pretty bad injuries but we made a lot of treatment on my ankle and wrist and the team helped me a lot. But I had a lot of pain when I put my foot down and when I went over the jumps. We worked hard this weekend and we took two good starts and I did what I had to do to take the wins."
Tixier admitted he had got a bad start in the opening moto but he won the holeshot in the second. "I thought I was going pretty good after the holeshot but then I crashed in the first lap when I got a bad bump in one of the waves. I managed to come back from last place to ninth. It wasn't so bad but not what I expected," he said.
Earlier in the day Ernee hosted Round 2 of the EMX 250 European Championship, which saw victory for KTM's Swiss rider Valentin Guillod."Now I'm leading the championship with two wins but today was not easy because it was very slippers. We had just one line and it wasn't easy to pass but I took my time, I tried to find a good line and to ride smoothly," Guillod commented.

Among the literally hundreds of blenders available in market, there are two extraordinarily efficient blenders which are most demanded by the consumers. These are the Blendtec and the Vitamix blender. Let us have a look on a brief review on Blendtec vs Vitamix blender.
Now before I get started I had some help in compiling this information – the guys over http://blendtecvsvitamixguide.com were a tremendous help in sorting all the information out and helping me with this blog.
The Vitamix blender has a motor power of 2 peak horsepower and it is found to spin its blades at a varying speed range of 11 mph to 240 mph. On the other hand, the Blendtec blender spins its blades at a power of 3 peak horsepower and at a speed of about 300 mph. the motor operates at 1560 Watt. Hence from the above comparison, it is quite obvious for people to come to a conclusion that since
Blendtec has greater horsepower, it is more efficient, but in reality, Vitamix shows similar results with even less power. There is not much difference between a motor operating at 2 horsepower and a motor at 3 horsepower. The horsepower denominations are just for the product promotion purpose.
Warranty Period
Both the Blendtec and Vitamix come with a warranty period of about 7 years. Moreover you can extend your warranty period up to 10 years in case of Vitamix blender by buying an extended warranty card for 75 dollars. Both the blenders have proved themselves to be highly durable, long-lasting and efficient in performance.
Strength and reliability
Both the Vitamix and Blendtec blenders are designed keeping in mind the customer's need and satisfaction. These blenders can perform a range of kitchen activities ranging from chopping the food items to pulverizing hard frozen materials. These are highly durable, damage-resistant equipped with blades made of stainless steel and BPA-free copolyester pitchers. Vitamix and Blendtec blenders have the ability to pulverize and crush even the hard food items which include the frozen fruits, grains, nuts and even coffee beans.
Blendtec blender is found to be shorter and smaller in size as compared to the Vitamix blender. Hence it is considered to have an advantage over Vitamix blender in terms of size. Because of its smaller size, the Blendtec blender can be fitted under almost all the kitchen cabinets and hence there is no need to make extra space for the blenders. It has a height of about 15 and half inches. On the other hand, the Vitamix blender is about 20 and a half inches tall and has a 64 ounce pitcher. It becomes difficult to fit it under the cup boards and it becomes mandatory to reserve extra space for it.
Although the Blendtec blender is smaller in size, it is heavier than Vitamix blender. Vitamix blender has a weight of 10 pounds in comparison to Blendtec blender which is about 12 pounds in weight.
Blendtec blender comes with a 64 ounce pitcher. The pitcher is break resistant and is made from highly durable plastic. Blendtec also offers the option of having a 90 ounce pitcher.
On the other hand, Vitamix offers to have 3 types of pitchers which include a 32 ounce pitcher, a 48 ounce pitcher and a 64 ounce pitcher. Individual pitchers are sold separately designed for some specific purposes like the grinding of grains. The 64 ounce pitcher of Vitamix has versatile functionality and is also known as an all purpose pitcher.
The Blendtec blade comes attached with the pitcher and hence one needs to completely replace the entire blade assembly in case the pitcher needs a replacement.
Ease of use
The vitamix blenders comes with a switch and blade interface system and allows the user to have a manual control over the blending. The switches and dials although provide the facility to have a manual control, this system is found to be more difficult to clean as compared to the buttons provided in Blendtec blender. The Blendtec blender features a push button system and the blender is cleaned automatically and with much ease.
Noise & Appearance
Blendtec is known to be noisier than its counterpart i.e. vitamix blender. Moreover, Vitamix takes less time to blend as compared to Blendtec blender.
The Vitamix blender has a much stylish look and has a completely business and professional look. It usually comes with brushed stainless, platinum and white and red. On the other hand, although the Blendtec has a sleek look but has a very primitive and dull design. The Blendtec clender also comes in black, red and white color.

Red-hot Indians, Yankees play makeup doubleheader
New York has won five straight, Cleveland six of seven
The Yankees and Indians will make efficient use of the schedule on Monday, as they fit two makeup games into a doubleheader. New York and Cleveland got rained out on consecutive days in April, and the twin bill will conclude a three-city, eight-game road trip for the Yankees.
New York will come into the doubleheader on a five-game winning streak, but also with an uncertain pitching rotation. Cleveland's Justin Masterson will be matched against David Phelps in Game 1, and two young pitchers -- Trevor Bauer and Vidal Nuno -- will pitch Game 2.
New York was off on May 6 and won't have another off-day until the 23rd, so the Yankees have to be careful about fatiguing their regulars. Manager Joe Girardi said Sunday that he plans on rotating at least a few of his players out of the lineup in the doubleheader.
"My plan is not to play Robbie Cano both games in the field," said Girardi, indicating that his second baseman could be the designated hitter in one of the games. "I probably won't play Vernon [Wells] both games in the field, so I'll try to divide it up. I won't catch both guys [back-to-back]. They won't catch two games. We'll go from there."
The Indians, who are tied with Detroit for first place in the American League Central at 20-15, will hope for Masterson to maintain his consistency. The right-hander has completed at least six innings in seven of his eight starts, and he's yet to have an outing in which he's given up more than one home run.
Phelps went six innings in his last start, and he went 5 2/3 innings against the Astros in his only other start this season. The right-hander has also made six relief appearances. Cleveland will call up rookie Trevor Bauer to start the second game, and manager Terry Francona loves what he's seen from the young righty.
"I might be the high guy on him," Francona said on Saturday. "I think this guy is going to be what we're looking for. He just has to develop, and sometimes that takes a while to do."
Bauer, the third overall selection in the 2011 First-Year Player Draft, was acquired by Cleveland in a monster three-way trade last winter, and he's made two spot starts for the Indians this season, going 1-1 with a 2.70 ERA. Francona said Bauer reminds him of a young Josh Beckett in both his mentality and approach.
"He's a little stubborn," Francona said. "But I think there will come a day when we're glad he is. I think there's a part of this kid that knows he's good and that he's going to be good. There's just some development left. I think what gets hidden is he's a pretty fierce competitor."
Yankees: Granderson sets his own timetable
• Curtis Granderson has hit .333 in his first three games for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, but the Yankees still aren't sure when he'll be ready to return from his rehab assignment. Girardi said that Granderson, recovering from a right forearm injury, will have the final say on when he plays.
"I keep telling you, when he says he's ready that's when we're going to call him up," Girardi said. "I know he feels good, but he's got to feel comfortable at the plate. ...It's probably worth it to have a call with him sometime tomorrow to see where he feels he's at. That will give us a better idea."
Indians: Waiting on Cabrera to catch fire
• Cleveland is still waiting for shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera to heat up. Cabrera hit .226 with two home runs in April, and he's batting .262 (11-for-42) with two homers so far through May. The switch-hitter, an All-Star the last two seasons, is batting .188 (12-for-64) at home this season.
Worth noting:
• Hall of Fame catcher Yogi Berra celebrated his 88th birthday on Sunday. Berra, a 10-time World Series champion, will hold his annual golf tournament on Monday.
• The Indians tied the game in the ninth inning and won it in the 10th on Sunday. It was Cleveland's first victory when trailing after eight innings this season.

For me it's more grayish and not black/white or good/evil. There's no real good one, but also no real evil one. Everyone just tries to make the best out of their situation, which sometimes means worse situations for others.
And I'm very happy with the Google services (just like most of the people), but that does not mean that I'm happy with the power Google possesses. The same goes for most huge companies and yet I'm using their stuff.

The temperature of the Earth's atmosphere has been essentially the same for the past decade or so, providing ammunition for skeptics of human-caused climate change. (This despite the fact that of the nine hottest years on record, eight have occurred since 2000, according to the National Climatic Data Center).
However, a recent study found that heat absorbed by the world's oceans has increased significantly over the same period, prompting the study co-authors to say that the warming has been diverted and is heating the oceans instead of the atmosphere.
The study was published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, a publication of the American Geophysical Union.
The current "hiatus" in atmospheric warming is temporary,says study co-author Kevin Trenberth of the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo., during a telephone press conference Thursday morning. "Global warming is continuing but manifesting itself differently," he says.
Here's how scientists say global warming works: Increasing amounts of carbon dioxide and other gases caused by the burning of the oil, gas and coal that power our world are enhancing the natural "greenhouse effect," causing the temperature of the atmosphere and oceans to warm to levels that climate scientists say cannot be linked to natural forces.
"Over 90% of the heat trapped by greenhouse gases winds up warming the oceans," said Josh Willis, a scientist with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory during the press conference. "Oceans cover two-thirds of the earth's surface, so it's expected that they'll play a large role in how climate change and global warming play out."
A large chunk of the warmth appears to be settling far down in the ocean about a half-mile beneath the surface, Trenbreth says. New technology over the past decade or so have allowed scientists to better measure the temperature of the deep oceans, Willis says.
While the world's excess heat comes from climate change, the amount that's absorbed into the oceans (as opposed to staying in the atmosphere) appears to be due to natural changes in climatic wind and ocean patterns, according to the study.
Temporary pauses and restarts in atmospheric temperature shouldn't detract from the main story: "The planet is warming, climate change is happening and the primary cause is greenhouse gases released by human activities," Willis says.
