If you want AT&T (the only of the big 3 carriers in the US who support the Nexus 4), the Nexus 4 is $100 more expensive than the iPhone 5 ($150 more expensive if you want to match the 16GB that the iPhone 5 comes with standard), while again being significantly less powerful, and slower without LTE. It won't matter that you bought the Nexus 4 unsubsidized either, because your monthly phone bill won't go down. In all of these scenarios, the iPhone 5 is both cheaper and more powerful. The only situation where the Nexus 4 can be cheaper, is if you take it to a prepaid carrier, assuming they have coverage in your area (no prepaid carrier has more coverage than AT&T or Verizon), and won't throw you off without warning for using too much data. So yes, especially when you consider it is the cheapest option of all the phones you just mentioned, and also the fastest/most powerful, the iPhone 5 is definitely "worth it". |

http://www.anandtech.com/show/6440/g...xus-4-review/3 Benchmark after benchmark shows the iPhone 5 performs better and has better battery life (way way way better battery life) than the Nexus 4. I know you're just going to dismiss by claiming you saw some video where Angry Birds ran .2 milliseconds faster on the Nexus 4, but Anandtech.com is the top benchmarking site in the world and according to them it's not even close. The Nexus 4 is a good phone, but the iPhone 5 smacks the poop out of it in every category (I know...I know, you saw a youtube video). Hell, the difference in battery life alone makes the iPhone 5 a no brainer over the Nexus 4. Please do some research before you start spouting stupid s***. |

OMG...did you even fricking look at those links. They did about 20 benchmarks and iPhone 5 came out on top of the Nexus 4 on almost every single one of them (actually it may have been every single one of them). It wasn't just battery life you moron...it was everything...they tested everything and the iPhone 5 was far superior to the Nexus 4.

If you want to use use benchmark then how about take into account that the iphone 5 is using a dumb down OS that is from 2007. Last edited by Brounmoney; Jan 30, 2013 at 09:49 PM. |

Yeah, definitely trolling. The only arrogance here is that the OP insists that he and ONLY he can be right, while everyone who disagrees with him is wrong and engaging in ad hominem attacks. Not to mention how much the actions of people who have no effect whatsoever in his life chaps his hide SO MUCH.

I mean your are the first person to not seem completely blow away that I would say anything bad about Apple. I guess I should stop watching the keynotes. I like tech a lot so I keep up with this stuff. I guess I should know where not to post and that is not here. I like to suggest different opinions.

---------- I might use some words in the wrong context since I'm not English speaking (Swedish), but I believe that the fact they are often "showing off" their huge margins when saying how great they are and how well they are doing is a way of making people buy their phones or be extra proud of owning one. I just meant that In my mind I think it's strange that to have massive margins on your phones compared to the competition is a good thing for the buyer. To me it's telling me I pay more for an equal product just because it has an Apple on it. Maybe that's just me, but that's my take on it. Quote:
My company bought it for me. I would never pay $920 of my own for it. But I was interested in learning more about the iPhones, iOS and the Apple eco system. At work I help most of our employees with their cell phone problems, helping them setting up syncing etc. Being a long time Android user I know that system, but was a complete novice when people with iPhones came to get help. I had also my own share of misconceptions about iOS, iTunes etc. and also wanted to find out what's true and what's not. Don't get me wrong, I love my iPhone and I have bought an iPad (which I don't find overpriced compared to the Android pads) myself. I like the eco system. But even though I like the products, I still think the iPhones are overpriced. ---------- If that had been the case in my market, I probably had agreed with you. But here it's not, it's about $200 more than the Android flagships. That's why I believe it's overpriced, here. |

Before Apple there was RIM
Before RIM there was Nokia (at least in all the world but US) A company is as successful as much as they can please their customers. I was a blackberry user, then an aunt gave me an iPod touch. The iPod touch gave my mom the idea of getting an iPhone. After her iPhone 3GS came another iPhone 4, then we got MBPs, Macs, more iPhones and iPads. So no, it was not a keynote that gave us the idea. It was the great product which did. Perhaps next year Android will get a feature or a completely new device that simplify my life will appear, making Apple old news. Who knows?? All I know right now, is that Apple is give us an ecosystem that meet our demands and that have the best customer services of the entire industry. I don't care if Samsung Galaxy S4 is implanted directly to the eye. If their customer support system sucks as much as it does now, there is no way in earth I'm switching. 5 years ago I had a Toshiba PC, it had an issue and I sent it to service. Customer service in Mexico told me that since the computer was bought in US, it was impossible to make the warranty valid in any other place in the world, and that I had to pay them 10 dollars for the check up they did. Last year my MBP had a hard disk failure. I took it to a service center in Prague and without asking a question they fixed it without me having to pay a cent. Ask me when will I buy another Toshiba laptop???

Couldn't believe my ears listening to 1-16-13 MacBreak Weekly...
At some of the things I was listening to the guests talk about...
Leo's using a Galaxy Note 2 and loving it, and is grumbling that Apple should release a similar device. Andy is trying to move some of his note taking functionality onto 3rd party apps like Dropbox, and is concerned about the walled garden approach to keeping data trapped within it, and MacOS/iOS's lack of flexibility. Adam Engst mentioning that iOS is the oldest mobile mainstream mobile os around. Other commentators stating that Android has 'lapped' it, that Apple has been short on innovation lately, etc. Brief discussion if there was consumer backlash at the conversion to the lightning connector and Apple's adapter pricing. Couldn't believe my ears at some of the comments made by these long term Mac commentators and enthusiasts. Was this three guys in a pissy mood that week, or is some of the gild coming off of Apple's lily?

The one thing I would disagree with you on is there customer support. Now yes they are better than a lot of companies but they still need a lot of work. So you get a 1 year warranty when you buy an iphone, but that only means you can call apple care twice. That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. I don't live near an Apple store at all, so if I have something that goes wrong I want to ask about it first before I have to make a day trip a an apple store. So yea they might do a lot for you if you can get to an Apple store, but you can just pick up the phone. |

You sound like you're from a non-English speaking country in Europe, forgive me if I'm wrong. I know that Apple bashing is a widespread hobby in the European lands of Linux coders and software-freedom fighters. I'm fairly sure that every Android user has their own distinct philosophy on iPhone users, this has regularly been confirmed to me. They'll assume you're a technophobe, they'll assume you're trying to compensate for something by choosing an Apple handset, they'll assume you're a fashion victim, a brain-dead consumerist freak, and about half a dozen other, and equally negative things. I've been wondering for a while now why the myth of the Apple fanatic is holding up so well in Europe, seeing as Android users have most definitely overtaken Apple fanboys in rabid bashing and blanket assumption making a long time ago, presumably somewhere around Gingerbread.
I clearly remember a debate I had with someone like that on some news forum, I actually succeeded into shaming him for his Android handset because it's not StallmanApprovedFreedom, telling him he needs to get Replicant ASAP, and he actually agreed. Clearly, the wind blows from a different direction over here. |

text: Four freshmen and sophomore Mariner girls earned Homer fourth place at the borough meet last Friday and Saturday in Nikiski. A team of 10 Homer boys placed fifth of the eight teams represented. Head Coach Bill Steyer called it an impressive meet for the small team. "There were lots of terrific performances by our athletes," he said. Sophomore Diane Frank's third and sixth place finishes in the long jump and the 100-meter dash helped propel the girls' team forward. Cassidy Soistman, Tayla Cabana and Casey Farrell had solid individual performances. The girls also took third in the 4x200 relay. The boys' 4x400 relay (Dylan Faulkner, Mitch Wyatt, Kyle Austin and Justice Sky) also finished third. Wyatt edged out Seward's Andrew Buchanan for first place in the 300-meter hurdles. A second-place finish by Riley Christiansen in the long jump, a third-place finish by Mark McGregor and fourths by Hoss Frank and Dan Adickes led the boys' scoring. Most of the Homer track team will attend the regional meet at Skyview Friday and Saturday.

One of the great things about using an iPhone or iPad is that you can look up the definition of any word you encounter in Notes, Safari, Mail, and more with the Define feature. (See the tip on how to do that HERE.) But what if you are traveling or you speak more than one language and you want to be able to look up words in those languages as well?
In addition to the English, Apple, and American English dictionaries iPhones and iPads in the U.S. come with by default, you can also download British English, German, Italian, Korean, French, Spanish, Dutch, Korean-English, Japanese-English, Simplified Chinese, Simplified Chinese-English, and Japanese dictionaries to your device from iCloud.
To download a dictionary, press and hold on a word until a menu pops up.
Tap Define to open the definition and then tap Manage in the bottom left corner.
This will bring up a list of available dictionaries.
Tap on the cloud icon next to the dictionary you want to download.
Tap the 'x' to delete a dictionary from your device.
Note that unless a dictionary has English in the title (ex. Korean-English) the definitions will not be in English.

Academic pricing for Kinect for Windows availability broadened

You all know how much of a fan I am of using the Kinect as an educational tool. I've highlighted a number of projects written by teachers, projects for learners (of all ages, young and old), projects from around the world.
But how do you get do you, the educator, take advantage of that? Funny you should ask...
Shortly after the commercial release of Kinect for Windows in early 2012, Microsoft announced the availability of academic pricing for the Kinect for Windows sensor to higher education faculty and students for $149.99 at the Microsoft Store in the United States. We are now pleased to announce that we have broadened the availability of academic pricing through Microsoft Authorized Educational Resellers (AERs).
Most of these resellers have the capability to offer academic pricing directly to educational institutions; academic researchers; and students, faculty, and staff of public or private K-12 schools, vocational schools, junior colleges, colleges, universities, and scientific or technical institutions. In the United States, eligible institutions are accredited by associations that are recognized by the US Department of Education and/or the State Board of Education. Academic pricing on the Kinect for Windows sensor is currently available through AERs in the United States, Taiwan, and Hong Kong SAR.
Within the academic community, the potential of Kinect for Windows in the classroom is generating a lot of excitement. Researchers and academia in higher education collaborate with Microsoft Research on a variety of projects that involve educational uses of Kinect for Windows. The educator driven community resource, KinectEDucation, encourages developers, teachers, students, enthusiasts and any other education stakeholders to help transform classrooms with accessible technology.
One such development is a new product from Kaplan Early Learning Company, the Inspire-NG Move, bundled with the Kinect for Windows sensor. This bundle includes four educational programs for children age three years and older. The programs make it possible for children to experience that hands-on, kinesthetic play with a purpose makes learning fun. The bundle currently sells for US$499.

Oops, something didn't work.
Are there any plans to include Canada in the academic pricing for Kinect? Ideally, I'd like to use the kinect for psychological research...

Opened in December 2010 by James Bradey and Warren Burns, Grandma's is described by the duo as a "retro-sexual haven of cosmopolitan kitsch and faded granny glamour". With a basement-level cocktail bar on Clarence street, Grandma's offers the sort of generous hospitality you might expect to get from your own grandparents -- it's a home away from home, serving jaffles and biltong (Burns comes from South African stock) and many fine rum-laced "potions".

Is Adoption from China Ending?
In the last 30 years, nearly 100,000 children from China have found new families around the world, thanks to one of the most stable and popular international adoption programs. And I'm the mom of two of them. My family was created there, when my husband and I adopted our two amazing daughters.
But a lot's changed over the past eight years, since we first met our oldest daughter in a Civil Affairs Office in China. Since then, China and the U.S. both signed the Hague Convention governing international adoption, which required checks on the histories of all children, to determine if they are truly orphans and available for adoption. (This is to help prevent the child trafficking and corruption that has occurred in some international adoption programs, including China's.) China instituted new limitations on the parents who would be eligible to adopt from China—though the parents who met those new limitations are still stuck waiting to be matched with their children (six years later and the wait is still growing, thanks to a 20,000+ backlog of parents hoping to adopt from China). China's wealth has been increasing, which means more children are being adopted domestically, and more parents manage to afford the fines the Chinese government levies on families who go over the one-child limit. And China may be holding still other children back in their orphanages, hoping to take care of their children within their own borders.
And so, it was no surprise to me that the numbers of international adoptions from China had dropped precipitously yet again. Last year, only 3,311 were adopted internationally from China throughout the world—compare that to 2005, when we adopted our oldest, and 7,903 children came home to the U.S. alone. And the other number that was equally interesting—75 percent of the children adopted would be classified as special needs, as they were older or had known medical issues. In fact, that is how we managed to adopt our second daughter—we would still be waiting for a match, six years later, if we hadn't found her on our agency's "special needs list."
Adopting a special needs child is currently the only viable option for most parents looking to adopt from China, as the wait for a "healthy" baby continues to grow—and will likely reach nearly a decade of waiting within the next few years. But it's not an option for everyone—many countries won't even allow their citizens to adopt special needs children.
We are thankful that it was an option for us, and that we'll be celebrating five years with our youngest daughter later this year. But for many other prospective parents, the China adoption program seems to be another door closing, and another option for building a family gone.

I wouldn't say adoption from China is "closing". There are thousands of children available for adoption from China and just because those children may have a label of "special needs" or "older" child" does not discount them from having the capability of becoming part of a "building family". Families aren't just built by the addition of "healthy" infants.

If there is one thing that sells more than sex nowadays, it would be the products specialized in enhancing sexual experiences, like male enhancement supplements and natural or synthetic aphrodisiacs. Every time you try to read your email, you need to surf through at least a few commercials of aphrodisiacs, as a rule. The naked truth is that these are actually wanted and needed; therefore the market floods us with them constantly.
While not too many men and users of - -, are willing to admit they could use a little bit of help on this chapter, they would all like to take a peek and even order something. The problem would be that many of them mistake aphrodisiacs with pills that should help them better perform, but this is the fault of manufacturers who intentionally promote this idea to increase their sales.
So, in a nutshell, aphrodisiacs should only make you feel desire, to stimulate your sexual desire, the intention of engaging in sexual intercourse, and they are most often requested by couples who have kind of lost passion after years of relationship, but also by men who, for whatever what reasons, have experienced a low libido.
The problem is simple, yet solving it is not necessarily that easy, particularly because it is all about our brain and the hormonal levels. Testosterone is the most important ingredient of the equation, and its lack or an imbalance is probably the main suspect when sex drive is wanted dead or alive, followed by fatigue, stress and in some cases depressions.
As both body and mind are involved, it seems natural for aphrodisiacs to work on one of them or even both of them. Some can simply allow more blood to flood the penis, which will automatically initiate the thought of sexual intercourse and stimulate arousal and desire. Alternatively, aphrodisiacs can generate the secretion of certain chemicals known to trigger desire and give a certain pleasure. However, the power of our brains is the most impressive, since even just thinking that a certain substance has aphrodisiac properties can actually increase your libido.
The thing with aphrodisiac substances is that they are well known in general, as researchers have identified them in various herbs, foods and introduced them in certain supplements, and yet, it is hard to tell how much of that particular substance is required for notable changes to interfere. This aspect might make you feel it is safer to consume foods that have aphrodisiacs in a natural form instead of taking pills, because food is hardly known to kill you or give you serious side effects while pills can make you more damage.
The good news however is that the substance you finally ingest is going to increase all your sensorial experiences, from touch and sight to hearing, taste and smell. When you are hypersensitive to everything around you, chances are you will feel the urge of becoming intimate with your partner.
The variety of natural aphrodisiacs is actually impressive and researchers continue to discover new ones. Exotic fruits such as papaya, avocado and bananas, together with peaches, figs and pomegranate, sea foods like shrimps, oysters and caviar, vegetables with phallic shape like cucumbers, carrots and asparagus or hot spices – pepper, cardamom and chili are considered safe recipes. Add sensual scents of musk, vanilla or patchouli and you may have an even more exciting sexual experience.
All of the above can be at your service any time you want. Precisely because you cannot know how much you need to eat, it would be wise to easily include some of them in your daily menu and wait to notice changes. Alternatively, you can consider trying over the counter supplements that may help you achieve, besides the sexual desire, a better erection as well. Male enhancement supplements are known to contain aphrodisiacs so try solving more than one problem at once.

Dark Shadows
About This Show
from the Museum of Broadcast Communications Encyclopedia of Television
This enormously popular half-hour gothic soap opera aired on ABC-TV from 1966 until 1971, and showcased a panoply of supernatural characters including vampires, werewolves, warlocks, and witches. During its initial run, the series spawned two feature-length motion pictures, House Of Dark Shadows (1970) and Night Of Dark Shadows (1971), as well as thirty-two tie-in novels, comic books, records, Viewmasters, games, models, and trading cards. Fans of the show included both adults and children (it aired in a late afternoon time slot which allowed young people the opportunity to see it after school), and many of these fans began to organize clubs and produce fanzines not long after the show was canceled. These groups were directly instrumental in getting Dark Shadows re-run in syndication on local stations (often public broadcasting stations), throughout the 1970s and 1980s and in persuading series creator Dan Curtis to remake the show as a prime-time weekly drama on NBC-TV in 1991. Although the new show did not catch on with the public, the entire run of Dark Shadows, both the original series and the remake, are available on tape from MPI Home Video. Fans continue to hold yearly conventions, write their own Dark Shadows fanzines, collect memorabilia, and lobby the entertainment industry.
Set in Collinsport, Maine, the original series focused on the tangled lives and histories of the Collins family. Matriarch Elizabeth Collins Stoddard (well known classical Hollywood movie star Joan Bennett) presided over the ancestral estate, Collinwood, along with her brother Roger Collins (Louis Edmonds). The show was in danger of being canceled after its first few months on the air until the character of Barnabas Collins, a 172-year-old vampire, was introduced. As played by Jonathan Frid, Barnabas was less a monster and more a tortured gothic hero, and he quickly became the show's most popular character. Governess Victoria Winters (Alexandra Moltke), waitress Maggie Evans (Kathryn Leigh Scott), and Elizabeth's daughter Carolyn (Nancy Barrett) became the first few women to fall sway to the vampire's charms. Dr. Julia Hoffman (Grayson Hall) attempted to cure him of his affliction, although she too subsequently fell in love with him. Barnabas was protected during the day by his manservant Willie Loomis (John Karlen), although Roger's son David (David Henesy) almost discovered his secret.
One of the series' most innovative developments was its use of time travel and parallel universes as narrative tropes which constantly reshuffled storylines and characters, enabling many of the show's most popular actors to play different types of characters within different settings. The first of these shifts occurred when governess Victoria Winters traveled back in time (via a seance) to the year 1795, so the series could explore the origins of Barnabas's vampirism. The witch Angelique (Lara Parker) was introduced during these episodes, as was the witch-hunting Reverend Trask (Jerry Lacy). After the 1795 sequence, Angelique returned to present day Collinwood as Roger's new wife Cassandra; she continued to practice witchcraft under the direction of warlock Nicholas Blair (Humbert Allen Astredo). Soon other classic gothic narratives were pressed into service, and the 1968 episodes also featured a werewolf, a Frankenstein-type creation, and pair of ghosts a la Turn of the Screw.
Those ghosts proved to be the catalyst to another time shift, this time to 1897, wherein dashing playboy Quentin Collins (David Selby) was introduced. His dark good looks and brooding sensuality made him a hit with the fans, and his popularity soon began to rival that of Barnabas. The 1897 sequence marked the height of the show's popularity, and the writers created intricately interwoven stories about vampires, witches, gypsies, zombies, madwomen, and a magical Count Petofi (Thayer David). Quentin was turned into a werewolf only to have the curse controlled by a portrait as in The Picture of Dorian Gray. When the show returned to the present time once again, it began working a storyline liberally cribbed from H. P. Lovecraft's "Cthulu" mythos. Through various time shifts and parallel universes, the show continued to rework gothic classics (including Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, The Turn of the Screw {again}, Rebecca, Wuthering Heights, and The Lottery) until its demise in 1971. Ingenues came and went, including pre-Charlie's Angels Kate Jackson as Daphne Harridge, and Donna (A Chorus Line) McKechnie as Amanda Harris.
The popularity of Dark Shadows must be set against the counter-cultural movements of the late 1960s: interest in alternative religions, altered states of consciousness, and paranormal phenomena such as witchcraft. Dark Shadows regularly explored those areas through its sympathetic supernatural creatures, while most of the true villains of the piece turned out to be stern patriarchs and hypocritical preachers. (The show did come under attack from some fundamentalist Christian groups who dubbed the series "Satan's favorite TV show.") Monstrous characters as heroic or likable figures were appearing elsewhere on TV at this time, in shows such as Bewitched, The Addams Family, and The Munsters. Many fans of those shows (and Dark Shadows) apparently looked to these figures as playful counter-cultural icons, existing in a twilight world somewhere outside the patriarchal hegemony. Furthermore, since the show was shot live on tape and mistakes were rarely edited out, the series had a bargain-basement charm which appealed both to spectators who took its storylines seriously and to those who appreciated the spooky goings-on as camp. The range of acting styles also facilitated a camp appreciation, as did the frequently outlandish situations, costumes, and make up. In spite of these technical shortcomings, the gothic romance of the show appears to be one of its most enduring charms. Fan publications most regularly try to recapture the tragic romantic flavor of the show rather than its campiness, although some fans faulted the latter day NBC remake for taking itself too seriously. Whatever their idiosyncratic reasons, Dark Shadows fans remain devoted to the property, and its characters remain popular icons in American culture.

Eva Rieder Says:
July 2nd, 2012 at 11:47 amAhhh, how sad. Bad boyfriend, bad neighbor, but great comic. As usual, beautifully done, Mari! Looking forward to more!
Gary Says:
July 2nd, 2012 at 12:55 pmThe best part of the comic portrayal is that when you step back and view from afar, you can see the smiles and optimistic looks fade into anger and panic and finally defeat. Everyone can sympathize with the situation where they think they've got it all figured out, and it doesn't happen that way.
The writer was hoping to control the couple before they even had a chance to make any noise at all, but he completely overlooked the potential outcome of crazy scream-fights.
J. Says:
July 2nd, 2012 at 2:45 pmThe Rumpus header occasionally reads, "You don't steal pop culture, pop culture steals you". I'll risk and speak for all of us, and say you steal us first.
MariNaomi, I suspect that the only people on the planet that aren't your fans are the ones who simply haven't seen you yet. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would offer to scream on your behalf, but.
MariNaomi Says:
July 2nd, 2012 at 7:17 pmWow, thanks for the sweet comments, you guys! *big happy smiles*
Conor Says:
July 3rd, 2012 at 10:28 amLove it. Each frame is potent.
Wonderful work Mari.
Lisa T. Says:
July 6th, 2012 at 12:00 pmUgh, on all accounts. Your neighbor clearly had unrealistic expectations for city living, but damn I would have hated to live beneath you and your boyfriend! Unfortunately we often don't see how bad our own situations have become until we catch a glance through someone else's eyes…
Sharanya Manivannan Says:
August 8th, 2012 at 10:19 amWow – nicely done! The true douchebaggery of the neighbor really comes out not in his letters, but in the fact that he would ignore – as too many neighbors do, I guess – what was potentially a situation involving violence.

Angus McBride
Angus McBride (1931 - 15 May 2007) was an English historical and fantasy illustrator.
Born in London to Highland Scots parents, Angus McBride was orphaned as a child when his mother died when he was five, and his father in World War Two when he was twelve. He was educated at the Canterbury Cathedral Choir School. He served his National Service in the Royal Fusiliers, and afterward got a job as an advertising artist.
Due to Britain's poor economic state immediately following World War II, McBride found it necessary to leave for South Africa. In Cape Town, he became a fairly well known and successful artist. However, he felt that he could not expand on his artistic plans in South Africa's small publishing industry. Consequently, in 1961, McBride moved back to England. He made his first works in educational magazines such as Finding Out and Look and Learn, World of Wonder and Bible Story. In 1975, he began to work with Osprey Publishing's Men-at-Arms series.
As England's economy again suffered in the 1970s, McBride moved with his family back to Cape Town, and continued to work with British and American publishers. He continued to do realistic, historical illustrations for Osprey Publishing as well as other such work for other military-history publishers (Concord publications, etc.). In fantasy circles, McBride was well known for his illustrations for Iron Crown Enterprises' game Middle-earth Role Playing (MERP).
Although a few of his paintings are in oils, Angus McBride mostly preferred to work in gouache colors on illustration boards, making numerous detailed sketches of the composition before starting to paint.
Angus McBride died on 15 May 2007.[1]

ARLINGTON, Texas — There were quarterback issues. Defensive issues. Referee issues.
Then, there was Michael Sam.
With one fell swoop, he knocked away creeping doubts, growing dread, and, most importantly, the ball out of Oklahoma State quarterback Clint Chelf's right hand.
With 1:09 left in Missouri's eventual 41-31 Cotton Bowl victory, Sam had not picked up a sack in almost two full games. The Cowboys were in the red zone down four points, and the defense had already given up 24 points in the second half.
The SEC Defensive Player of the Year received the call from defensive coordinator Dave Steckel: "Straight."
Translation: Forget the run. Get the quarterback.
So Sam went into All-American mode and burned the right tackle. As Chelf looked downfield to throw a dagger into Tigers fans' hearts, Sam launched himself into the quarterback and stripped the ball, which rolled free on the AT&T Stadium turf.
Fellow defensive lineman Shane Ray scooped up the ball and brought it 73 yards to the end zone as the sections of Missouri fans in a sell-out crowd exploded.
"We knew the team needed us," Ray said. "I can't even tell you what was going through my mind. When I grabbed that ball, the only thing I could think of was 'Just go.' "
The play sealed a win that seemed to slip out of Missouri's hands several times. Much of the discord stemmed from James Franklin's issues at the quarterback position. The senior from Corinth, Texas, was inaccurate throughout the contest, and finished with an ugly line (15-for-40, 174 yards, one interception, two lost fumbles).
Coach Gary Pinkel seemed to have a quarterback controversy on his hands when redshirt freshman Maty Mauk — taking his customary second-quarter series — tallied 105 total yards (thanks to a couple of penalties) on an electric touchdown drive to put Missouri up 14-7.
The young quarterback had been mostly dormant since Franklin returned to health in late November, but he quickly made the most of the opportunity.
After a personal foul on Max Copeland, Missouri faced second-and-18 from its own 12-yard-line. Mauk dropped back to pass but quickly escaped the pocket and made a couple of nice moves for a 35-yard gain.
The next play, offensive coordinator Josh Henson called an "All-Go" play that sent every Tigers receiver deep. Oklahoma State countered with an ineffective blitz and strict man coverage, which opened up the field for another 34-yard scamper by Mauk. Four plays later, he unleashed a perfect pass to senior Marcus Lucas that barely floated over two Cowboys.
"With Maty, it's obvious that we have a really good young player," Pinkel said. "We thought it was good to get him in the game."
But after that game-changing drive, Mauk was nowhere to be found. As Franklin continued to struggle with his accuracy, it was fair to wonder: "Will Mauk get another shot?"
Two Franklin fumbles later — one on an attempted handoff to Henry Josey, another on an attempted option pitch to Josey — fans got their answer. Mauk trotted back onto the field to try and spark the stagnant offense. But when he went three-and-out, he was pulled again in favor of Franklin.
"I thought James kept his composure," Pinkel said. "You look at the quarterback, and you can point at him, but there's blocking, protection, routes. There's lots of things that most of you can't see all the time."
Pinkel was right. While Franklin had one of his worst games as a Tiger, his receivers did little to help. There were not many obvious drops, and the passing game was miserable with missed opportunities that glanced off Tigers' hands.
"He's won a lot of clutch games," Pinkel said. "You generally go with experience."
Just when the offense's productivity hit a low, Franklin threw a bad interception to the middle of the field. Fortunately for Missouri, the back judge threw a controversial pass interference flag, which negated the turnover. Oklahoma State fans, who sat through a nearly 4½-hour loss, suffered through several overturned calls and penalties that — fair or not — did not go in their favor.
The huge extra chance turned Henry Josey into the team's savior.
He rushed for 92 yards and three touchdowns on the day, including the final go-ahead score. The redshirt junior, who has left open the possibility he could leave early for the NFL, couldn't have asked for a better send-off.
"I have the best support ever," said Josey, who missed all of the 2012 season with a devastating knee injury. "It's never me. You've got to have faith in God, and then I have so many people that have taken me to the next level."
In a redemptive moment, Franklin connected with Dorial Green-Beckham for 27 yards down the left sideline to set up the final Josey score.
"You never doubt James," Josey said. "Everything that happened with the fumbles and everything, you let it go. I've got your back."

House Bill 1572: Study of Special Education Needs for Nonpublic Schools
Meslow, Latz, Simon, Erickson, and Demmer
This bill would provide for a study which would investigate how well special needs children in nonpublic schools are being served, and if services are being provided in the least restrictive manner possible.
03/07/2005 | (H) Introduction and first reading, referred to education finance. |
Action Requested:
None at this time.
HSLDA's Position:
Cautious support. Current law leaves the provision of special education services up to the local school district, which has resulted in an unpredictable patchwork of services to homeschool families. This bill would begin to study this problem.

In order to prevent children and young people from becoming obese, healthier eating patterns are urgent. Organic school meals may be an effective strategy to provide healthy food to children. The purpose of this study was to take a closer look into the current status of organic school meal systems in Denmark, by conducting a case study of three municipalities in the Zealand region that have the most developed models for school meals service in this country. These municipalities have for some years introduced organic food for sale in their primary schools, with three quite different approaches. Copenhagen has established a large central kitchen, producing partly organic food that is heated and sold in tuck shops at the schools. Roskilde cooperates with an organic catering company, delivering food to be sold in school canteens. Gladsaxe has part-time employed staff preparing and selling food at each school, and these people are educated about organic food by a municipal coordinator. Based on interviews with key informants in the three municipalities, the report describes the involved actors, interactions among actors, and barriers and future plans regarding an increased consumption of organic food in school meals. Similarities and differences between the municipalities are discussed. The main challenges for an increased consumption of organic food in schools are related to lack of infrastructure in the schools such as kitchens and dining halls, and that the school meal systems developed so far are not well rooted among the pupils, teachers, other school staff and the parents.

Source of property to decide inheritance: SC New Delhi, November 16 It is the source from which the property was inherited by the female, which is more important for the purpose of devolution of her property, a Bench comprising Mr Justice U.C. Banerjee and Mr Justice K.G. Balakrishnan said in a recent ruling. Kehar Singh was the owner of a land at Antowali village in Pakistan. He died before Partition. His widow Kirpo and two daughters Shanti and Indro migrated to India. In lieu of the property owned by Kehar in Pakistan, Kirpo was allotted some land in India. Kirpo died in 1951 and the two daughters inherited the property equally. Shanti died in 1960 and her property was mutated in the name of her surviving sister Indro. Teja Singh, brother of Shantis husband, claimed that the property of Shanti should be given to him under the Hindu Succession Act. The trial court decreed in favour of Teja Singh. The high court confirmed the decree. However, the Supreme Court held that Teja Singh had no right in the property left by Shanti and that it would only devolve on her sister Indro. Mr Justice Balakrishnan, writing the judgement for the Bench, said admittedly that Shanti inherited the property in question from her mother. If the property held by a female was inherited from her father or mother in the absence of any son or daughter of the deceased including the children of any pre-deceased son or daughter, it would only devolve upon the heirs of the father and, in this case, her sister Indro was the only legal heir of her father, he said. The intent of the legislature is clear that the property, if originally belonged to the parents of the deceased female, should go to the legal heirs of the father, Mr Justice Balakrishnan said. So also under clause (b) of sub-section 2 of Section 15 of the Hindu Succession Act, the property inherited by a female Hindu from her husband or her father-in-law, shall also under similar circumstances devolve upon the heirs of the husband, he said. The Bench said, We do not think that the fact that a female Hindu originally had a limited right, and later acquired the full right, in any way, would alter the rules of succession given in sub-section 2 of Section 15. The source from which she inherits the property is always important and that would govern the situation. Otherwise persons who are not even remotely related to the person who originally held the property would acquire rights to inherit the property, it said.
BJP in search of Dalit leader New Delhi, November 16 The party high command along with the Rashtriya Swyamsevak Sangh is drawing out an ambitous plan to identify Dalit leaders at the grass-sroots level and to develop them on a long-term basis and to give Mr Laxman an enhanced role for the short term objectives. Identified leaders from the Dalit section of the society will be given positions of responsibility at various levels of the BJP so that the party does not have to depend upon leaders like former UP Chief Minister Mayawati or Union Coal Minister Ramvilas Paswan, sources said. The issue came up for discussion at the recently held two-day National Executive Committee meeting in Amritsar when BJP General-Secretary Pyarelal Khandelwal drew partys attention towards it saying that the BJP did not have credible Dalit leaders. Barring Mr R.L. Kataria, state president of the Haryana BJP, the party had no other Dalit leader of prominence, Mr Khandelwal said, adding that the party might also work to develop women leaders. Mr Khandelwal said the party lacked a natural Dalit leadership and that was why the BJP was failing to attract the Dalit section towards it. He further stressed that the party should make sincere efforts to build a Dalit leadership for its future growth, the sources said, adding that he was indeed pleading for bringing back Mr Laxman in the interest of the party. The sources said Mr Khandelwal was asked to prepare the ground for the return of Mr Laxman by none other than the Prime Ministers camp. While Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee was said to be of the view that Mr Laxman should be rehabilitated and used for the party campaign, there was a little hesitation in the camp of BJP President K. Jana Krishnamurthi over the former president being given a formal position in the party, the sources said. Mr Vajpayee was convinced that entire Tehelka episode was a handiwork of a particular industrial lobby and it was far from facts. In this background, the Prime Minister felt that Mr Laxman should be given a chance again, the sources said. |
for states say in central schemes New Delhi, November 16 The Chief Minister was speaking at a meeting of the Inter-State Council presided over by Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee here today. He said that re-engineering of government organisations would involve commissioning of studies, reorganising government structures, introduction of new technology, reorientation training and, in some cases, payment of severance packages to redundant personnel. Mr Chautala insisted that the central government should provide financial support for such initiatives. The Haryana government had decided to constitute a State Economic Renewal Fund for the purpose, and hoped that the central Government would support this endeavour suitably. He said the Central government should let states draw up schemes that would be relevant to their conditions. This, he said, would mitigate a long pending grievance of state about lack of space for local initiative in centrally sponsored schemes. He suggested a floating interest regime for small savings, linked to prime lending rates. He reminded that Haryana government had been demanding a suitable compensation package for the loss suffered during the period of terrorism in and around Punjab. Such a package would be a just compensation for the part played by the government and the people of Haryana in containing terrorism in the region, he said. However, if there was a policy deadlock, he would expect at least a five year rescheduling of states debt repayments to the central government. Speaking at the meeting, Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Prem Kumar Dhumal pleaded for setting up north-west Himalayan council on the pattern of North East Council to act as a single body for speedy development of entire Himalayan belt of the country. He requested for immediate establishment of such a council comprising Jammu and Kashmir, Uttaranchal and Himachal Pradesh to boost economic activities in the region. Mr Dhumal demanded representations of state government in various committees and boards to manage Doordarshan and All India Radio. He said that standing stock of forest wealth in Himachal Pradesh was worth Rs 1,00,000 crore and silviculture harvesting alone could yield Rs 300 crore revenue per annum. Mr Dhumal requested proper compensation for state government to meet revenue loss due to complete ban imposed on green commercial felling in the state and asked the Inter-State Council to come up with recommendation in this regard. Mr Dhumal requested the Union Government to levy generation tax on hydro electricity to accelerate the exploitation of hydel potential in the state. He requested the Prime Minister to give directions to the Union Power Ministry for an early settlement the states share in B.B.M.B. power system and free power on all projects irrespective of their dates of commissioning. |
Indias dos and donts
for G-21 meeting New Delhi, November 16 It is against this backdrop that India approaches the Group of 21 meeting which began in New York to decide the future set-up of Afghanistan. As military results preceded political resolution in Afghanistan, stage is now being set for crucial diplomatic and political round of parleys which will decide the future set-up of the beleagured country. A notable feature, according to diplomatic observers here, is that while the official 6+2 group is still functional, India is backing efforts to create a parallel group to counterbalance Pakistan and neutralise Islamabads say over the political set-up in Kabul. But so far India has not been able to make a dent into Pakistans diplomatic leverage over Afghanistan. It is clear from the fact that Pakistan figures in both 6+2 (which has six Afghanistan neighbours Pakistan, China, Iran, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan and two important powers Russia and the USA) and G-21 groups, but India figures only in G-21. The G-21 meeting in New York is to decide whether the UN should send its peacekeeping force in Afghanistan and if so what should be the identity of the troops and from where they should be drawn. The Northern Alliance has already negatived suggestions for a UN peacekeeping force in Afghanistan, saying that the UN could send observers. |
Ban Bajrang Dal, says Cong New Delhi, November 16 Party spokesperson Anand Dharma created a flutter at the party briefing today when the produced the trishul covered in a pouch of Bajrang Dal Sanskar Seva Suraksha, with a couplet, Ram ka kinahe bina, mohe kahan vishram, written on it. Accusing the Bajrang Dal of misusing religion for political ends, the Congress demanded that the organisation should be banned under the Prevention of Unlawful Activities Act. Mr Sharma said lakhs of such trishuls had been distributed in villages of Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. The party said the trishul had been made using sophisticated technology, Mr Sharma said the Bajrang Dal was trying to link the construction of Ram Temple at Ayodhya with its campaign of distributing
trishuls. |
Vice-President for relief to scribes in conflict zones New Delhi, November 16 There is an urgent need to minimise the risks mediapersons face in conflict situations and that requires deep thinking and consensus among nations, Mr Kant observed while inaugurating the day-long National Press Day seminar, organised by the Press Council of India (PCI) at Vigyan Bhawan here. Jurists, editors and social activists participated in the seminar on Projection of Women by Media in Present Day Context and Occupational Hazards Faced by Mediaperons in Conflict Situations: Relief and Rehabilitation Measures in Fatal Cases. Earlier, in his presidential address PCI Chairman K. Jayachandra Reddy also called upon the Government to review the existing legislation to provide sufficient monetary benefits, as well as adequate relief and rehabilitation, to mediapersons working in dangerous situations. The Vice-President wanted to know if the international community had, so far, laid down any internationally accepted rules and norms for treating mediapersons covering conflicts. I would very much welcome that something like the Geneva Convention or the Red Cross Convention should be agreed upon to give mediapersons the freedom and the space to function during conflicts, he said. Only the other day, some journalists representing a few western newspapers lost their lives in Afghanistan while on duty. On projection of women in the media, Mr Kant observed that it either showed intellectual and political concern about the status of women or it commodified women. He advised the journalists to rather play a salutary and a liberating role to give the women the distinctive and the exclusive space. On relief for scribes, Justice Reddy stressed that all newspapers establishments and media organisations also owed moral and professional obligation to offer solace not by empty words but constructive means to the families of those who died while covering conflicts. On projection of women in media, PCI Chairman cautioned that any deviant or negative projection of women by the media would result in severe repercussions.
ISRO steps to counter meteoroid shower Bangalore, November 16 In case of INSAT satellites the Gyros on board would be kept continuously on to detect any disturbances due to the meteoroids impact and in case of any disturbance, the spacecraft would be brought back to their proper orientation, it said. The Leonid meteoroids shower is expected to reach its peak between 2.30 p.m. and 3.30 p.m. and again between 10.30 p.m. and 11.30 p.m. on November 18. So far, Leonid showers have not affected any ISRO satellite. At present, ISRO has five satellites in operation IRS-1C, IRS-1D, IRS-P3, IRS-P4 and TES in the polar sun-synchronous orbits and five satellites INSAT-2C, INSAT-2DT, INSAT-2E, INSAT-3B and GSAT-1 in the geo-stationary orbit. Every 33 years, the Leonid Tempel Tuttle makes its closest approach to the Sun and when in proximity to the Sun, the sublimation of its ice and dust content results in the spewing of low intensity debris. These tiny particles seem to emanate from the constellation of Leo and hence the name Leonid meteoroids whose hyper velocity motion make it unique.
PM to visit Japan in Dec New Delhi, November 16 The visit was originally scheduled in February this year but had to be postponed due to the devastating earthquake that struck Gujarat on January 26. A spokesperson for the Ministry of External Affairs said today that the Prime Ministers visit would strengthen Indo-Japanese partnership that was established during the visit of the then Japanese premier Yoshiro Mori during his visit to India in August, 2000. Mr Vajpayee will be received in Tokyo by the Emperor who would also be hosting a luncheon in his honour. The Japanese premier would holding discussions with Mr Vajpayee and host a dinner in his
honour. |
Christians hail
amendments to succession Act New Delhi, November 16 The Indian Cabinet approved two amendments to the Indian Succession Act, which the Christian community had been seeking from the Government for quite sometime now. At a meeting with a delegation led by Secretary-General of the CBCI, Archbishop Oswald Gracias, the Union Law Minister, Mr Arun Jaitely, discussed in detail the discrepancies in the Act introduced during the British rule. The two anomalies in the Act, which discriminated against Christians were that a Christian needed a probate of the will from a court before he or she could inherit an ancestral property, a process that often took years. The other was with regard to the denial of a widows right to inherit her husbands property, if the couple had mutually entered upon a contract to do so, a provision which could be used against the widow if the husbands family would wish to do so. We are extremely pleased with the Cabinets decision to approve the said amendments, the Archbishop said. |

Day celebrated New Delhi, November 16 Democracy is the only way to teach tolerance and peace. We must not only tolerate but also accept each others culture and civilisation, Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairperson Najma Heptulla said during a seminar on Tolerance in the Time of Terrorism, organised by the United Nations Information Centre. Ms Heptulla, the president of the Council of Inter-Parliamentary Union, was joined by the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Ms Mary Robinson. In a world growing ever more interdependent, tolerance is not a luxury. It must become our way of life, Ms Robinson said at the function. Ms Heptulla said the day had assumed further significance after the September 11 attacks. The war begins in the minds of men, she said, quoting from her grandfather Maulana Abdul Kalam Azads address to the UNESCO General Assembly.

If it is a loss of significant cartilage caused by previous injury/surgery, success rate is dismal.
In Williams case, I have no doubt that he suffered significant cartilage damage at his initially reported "tweaked knee." The arthroscopy then was performed to remove loose and damaged cartilage, exposing some underlying bare knee joint bone. He returned to play too soon thus further breaking off bits of damaged cartilage. During this surgery, further cleanup of cartilage, thus exposing more bone surface would have likely been performed prior to the microfracture drilling. Keep in mind that after joint bone denuding of cartilage and drilling into the bone, arthritis naturally quickly ensues. Not a terribly rosey picture for the future.
Wasn't the same knee apparently

WASHINGTON (AP) - There's still no deal to keep the government
After meeting late last night and again today, President Barack
Obama hasn't been able to work out an agreement with House Speaker
John Boehner.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who's also been in the
meetings, says there will be another one later today. And Boehner
told reporters outside the White House that "all of us sincerely
believe that we can get to an agreement."
Boehner said he asked Obama to sign the measure the House passed this afternoon that would fund the government for one more week.
After today's meeting, Boehner said, "There is no agreement on
a number, there's no agreement on the policy issues."
President Obama and congressional leaders worked late into Wednesday night trying to work out a deal to keep the government from shutting down midnight Friday.
It's not often the President comes to the White House House briefing room at 11:00 at night, but with time running out to avoid a shutdown Obama was upping the pressure.
After 90 minutes of Oval office negotiations there was still no deal.
Top leaders from both parties then made a rare appearance together, vowing to keep talking.
More than 4 million federal employees are in jeopardy of losing their pay if the government is forced to shutdown.
The impact of a shutdown will be felt across the nation.
Government backing of small business loans would come to a halt.
National Parks will shut their gates and customs officers will be furloughed.
Essential government workers will stay on the job no matter what including air traffic controllers, the FBI and the U.S. military.
House Republicans are threatening to pass a stop gap spending bill that would keep the government open for another week, but President Obama has already promised to veto it.

Movie Crazy is a 1932 comedy film starring Harold Lloyd in his third sound feature.
Harold Hall, a young man with little or no acting ability, desperately wants to be in the movies.
