BOWLING GREEN, Ohio -- Miami rallied from a 10-4 deficit to send the tying run to the plate three times in the ninth, but the margin was too much to overcome in a 10-8 loss to Bowling Green Sunday in the rubber game of the Mid-American Conference series.
Chad Sedio and Matt Honchel each had four hits, while Dan Walsh and Alex Johnson each drove in a pair of runs.
Miami opened a 3-0 lead in the top of the first after a bases-loaded walk to Walsh and a two-run single by Sedio. But the Falcons answered with a three-run triple in the first, then scored one in the second, one in the fourth and two in the fifth to lead 7-3.
The RedHawks closed the gap with a run in the sixth after Sedio singled, took second on a balk and came home in a single by Nate Bowles, but Bowling Green countered with a run in the sixth and two more in the seventh for a 10-4 advantage.
Miami fought back, though. With one out in the eighth, Walsh, Johnson and Sedio singled to load the bases. After Bowles struck out, the Falcons changed pitchers and Miami sent Max Andresen up to pinch hit. A wild pitch made the score 10-5 but Andresen flied out to center to end the threat.
The RedHawks continued to threaten in the ninth. Honchel and Romano singled before John Crummy hit a grounder to second. The throw to start the double play was off line, scoring Honchel and putting runners on the corners. After a pitching change and pinch runner, Kevin Bower walked to load the bases, bringing on another change on the mound and another Miami pinch runner. Walsh hit a foul ball down the right field line that was caught for the first out, but each runner advanced, making the score 10-7.
Johnson grounded out to short for the second out, driving in Julian Flanary, before Sedio struck out swinging to end the contest.
Miami starter Seth Varner took the loss after allowing four hits and four runs in the first two innings. He is now 1-1 after the decision. Jason Link (1-1) picked up the win for the Falcons, coming in to start the fifth and lasting 3.2 innings. He allowed seven hits and two runs during that span. Trevor Blaylock earned his first save by getting the final two outs of the game.
The RedHawks take a week off for final exams before beginning a six-game MAC homestand to close the regular-season. Buffalo is the first opponent, visiting McKie Field next weekend.

About the Author
I've always loved to write, but after my first attempt at a novel (nine chapters of Plastic City, the story of underwater-dwelling orphans in the twenty-third century that I wrote in the sixth grade), I took some time to get my bachelor's degree and to try my hand at other careers before I returned to my first passion: creative writing. After lots and lots of perseverance, hard work, and a bit of very good luck, My Darling Caroline went on to win the Romance Writers of America's RITA® Award for Best First Book of 1998.
I live in Texas with my family, exploring history as I delve into the hearts of my characters.

The webOS software found a new home.
The famous webOS software of Hewlett-Packard is already sold to LG Electronics, a South Korean electronics company.
On Monday, the deal was announced by HP, which has gotten the company off of the centerpiece of its unfortunate purchase of $1.8 billion for Palm Inc. three years ago.
In 2011, HP used webOS as the facilitator into the tablet computer and smartphone market as well. However, the company immediately got rid of the mobile devices that runs on the software along with the failing revenues. As a result, HP decided to stop the development . . . → Read More: LG to take over webOS from HP

CHERRYVILLE — West Lincoln coach Tom Sain said Miguel Corella brought a "new dimension" to the Rebels' offense Friday night.
Corella brought more than that. He brought the house, vaulting from backup quarterback to offensive star as the Rebels rolled past Cherryville 45-14 in a Southern Piedmont 1A/2A Conference game that looked even on paper.
Corella, inserted into the lineup to replace regular QB Corey Smith, who suffered a non-football-related injury, rushed for four touchdowns and passed for another as the Rebels (4-3, 2-1) scored on five of six first half possessions.
"We made some good plans out for the week, and we got it done,"said Corella. "I give it all up to my blockers. We had a different game plan, and we made it work."
But Corella has to take some of the credit for the resurgence in an offense that struggled last week in a 41-13 homecoming loss to Lake Norman Charter.
In the first half alone, the 5-foot-11, 170-pound junior scored on runs of 18, 4, and 22 yards and tossed a 23-yard touchdown pass to Dalton Rhoney.
"I am real proud of what he (Corella) did tonight," Sain said. "He has been our backup quarterback, and we knew we had to have somebody tonight. He can run the football a little bit more, and in turn that opens it up for us to throw a few passes."
Sain said the game plan was to run away from Cherryville's big defensive front led by massive lineman Daniel Owens.
"We knew we would have to spread it out a little because they were big and strong and would try to take away our inside run. We played with a lot of heart and executed," Sain said.
Trailing 35-0 at the break, Cherryville (3-4, 2-1) regained a measure of poise in the second half as backup QB Spencer Stamey scored on runs of 1 and 17 yards.
But it was clearly not the Ironmen's night.
"We simply came out really, really flat and did not play well," Cherryville coach Keith Fox said. "Our mind was not focused in on the game. I don't know what the reason for the letdown was, but we did not play like we did in the last two weeks" (wins over North Lincoln and Bessemer City).
West Lincoln set the tone on the game's first series, when linebacker Derrick Braun sacked Cherryville quarterback Darius Harris for a seven-yard loss.
That series began a nightmarish first half for the Ironmen, who failed to get a first down until the final minute of the second quarter.
With some new wrinkles designed to capitalize on Corella's speed at quarterback, the Rebels attacked the corners and ran away from Cherryville's interior front. The Rebels had repeated success running the ball outside with on toss sweeps by Davilla and Tracey Messer and keepers by Corella.
West Lincoln also excelled in the kicking game, surprising the Ironmen with the successful recovery of an onside kick after the Rebels went up 13-0 in the first quarter.
After the recovery near midfield, Corella capped a 50-yard drive with a 4-yard scoring run to make it 19-0. The Rebels added two more second quarter scores to blow the game open.
To add to the Ironmen's woes, Harris went out with an injury in the first quarter and did not return. Fox said he did not know the extent of the injury to Harris.

Janino as a Source Code ClassLoader
The JavaSourceClassLoader extends JavaTM's java.lang.ClassLoader class with the ability to load classes directly from source code.
To be precise, if a class is loaded through this ClassLoader, it searches for a matching ".java" file in any of the directories specified by a given "source path", reads, scans, parses and compiles it and defines the resulting classes in the JVM. As necessary, more classes are loaded through the parent class loader and/or through the source path. No intermediate files are created in the file system.
If the JavaTM source is not available in files, but from some other storage (database, main memory, ...), you may specify a custom ResourceFinder instead of the directory-based source path.
If you have many source files and you want to reduce the compilation time, you may want to use the CachingJavaSourceClassLoader, which uses a cache provided by the application to store class files for repeated use.
A BASH shell script named "bin/janino" is provided that wraps the JavaSourceClassLoader in a JAVAC-like command line interface:
Janino as a Command-Line JavaTM Compiler
The Compiler class mimics the behavior of SUN's javac tool. It compiles a set of "compilation units" (i.e. JavaTM source files) into a set of class files.
Using the "-warn" option, Janino spits out some probably very interesting warnings which may help you to "clean up" the source code.
The BASH script "bin/janinoc" implements a drop-in replacement for SUN's JAVAC utility:
Janino as an ANT Compiler
You can plug JANINO into the ANT utility through the AntCompilerAdapter class. Just make sure that janino.jar is on the class path, then run ANT with the following command-line option:
Janino as a TOMCAT Compiler
If you want to use JANINO with TOMCAT, just copy the "janino.jar" file into TOMCAT's "common/lib" directory, and add the follwing init parameter section to the JSP servlet definition in TOMCAT's "conf/web.xml" file:
Janino as a Code Analyser
Apart from compiling JavaTM code, JANINO can be used for static code analysis: Based on the AST ("abstract syntax tree") produced by the parser, the Traverser walks through all nodes of the AST, and derived classes can do all kinds of analyses on them, e.g. count declarations:
This is the basis for all these neat code metrics and style checking.
Janino as a Code Manipulator
If, e.g., you want to read a JavaTM compilation unit into memory, manipulate it, and then write it back to a file for compilation, then all you have to do is:
The UnparseVisitor (http://dist.codehaus.org/janino/javadoc/org/codehaus/janino/UnparseVisitor.html#main%28java.lang.String\[\]%29) class demostrates how to do this.
Alternative Compiler Implementations
JANINO can be configured to use not its own Java™ compiler, but an alternative implementation. Alternative implementations must basically implement the interface ICompilerFactory. One such alternative implementation is based on the javax.tools API (available since JDK 1.6), and is shipped as part of the JANINO distribution:
Basically there are two ways to switch implementations:
- Use
org.codehaus.commons.compiler.jdk.ExpressionEvaluatorand consorts instead of
org.codehaus.janino.ExpressionEvaluator; put
commons-compiler-jdk.jarinstead of
janino.jaron your compile-time and runtime classpath. (
commons-compiler.jarmust always be on the classpath, because it contains the basic classes that every implementation requires.)
- Use
org.codehaus.commons.compiler.CompilerFactoryFactory.getDefaultFactory().newExpressionEvaluator()and compile only against
commons-compiler.jar(and no concrete implementation). At runtime, add one implementation (
commons-compiler-jdk.jar) to the class path, and
getDefaultFactory()will find it at runtime.

May 9th, 2008 #132
If only I could book your superior critical eye to replace a judging panel of artists with a wide variety of artistic preferences and years of experience! That would eliminate any chance of someone winning that you don't believe should. I hope you'll be available to bless the community with your insight in any future thunderdomes, I'm not sure where we'd be without you.
PS I love you.

While on one hand it would be nice to see what place you came in, I've decided not to since places don't matter in this thunderdome. Some judges would prefer I kept the point totals between us as well. Hope that's fine with everyone.

This combined song and dance is a distinctive Queen's tradition, performed at sporting events and most university occasions less formal than convocations (although spontaneous Oil Thighs have also been known to occur). It consists of the old song "Queen's College Colours," sung to the accompaniment of a low-kicking sort of can-can dance.
The name "Oil Thigh" comes from the chorus of the song, which begins with the Gaelic words "Oil thigh na Banrighinn a'Banrighinn gu brath" ("The college of the wife of the King forever"). At football games, it is a tradition that students perform an Oil Thigh after every touchdown.
The song "Queen's College Colours" was written in 1898 by student Alfred Lavell to inspire Queen's football team to victory after a disappointing loss to the University of Toronto. Its staying power is somewhat surprising: it was just one of countless university songs penned at a time when songwriting was a booming pastime among students, and even Lavell later described its verses as "sophomoric."
Its survival is due partly to its rousing Gaelic chorus, which was actually written separately as a university cheer in 1891, and its popular tune, stolen from the American "Battle Hymn of the Republic." But it has also prospered because most of its rivals suffered even more noticeably from over-sentimentality and clumsy rhyme.
The song's original line "So, boys, go in and win!" was changed to "So, Gaels, go in and win!" in 1985 to include Queen's women athletes.
The modern version of the Oil Thigh:
Queen's College colours we are wearing once again,
Soiled as they are by the battle and the rain,
Yet another victory to wipe away the stain!
So, Gaels, go in and win!
Oil thigh na Banrighinn a'Banrighinn gu brath!
Oil thigh na Banrighinn a'Banrighinn gu brath!
Oil thigh na Banrighinn a'Banrighinn gu brath!
Cha-gheill! Cha-gheill! Cha-gheill!
Varsity's not invincible, they tremble at the news
Of Queen's College Colours and are shaking in their shoes.
Yet another victory, the chance we dare not lose.
So, Gaels, go in and win!
Chorus: Oil thigh, na Banrighinn...
McGill has met defeat before, they've heard the same old tale
Of Queen's College colours, boys, the ones that seldom fail,
Remember Captain Curtis and the conquerors of Yale,
So, Gaels, go in and win!
Chorus: Oil thigh, na Banrighinn...
Western's White and Purple have come down to Queen's to score,
We sent them back to London as they'd ne'er been sent before.
And Queen's again were victors as they were in days of yore,
So, Gaels, go in and win!
There may be other colours to the breezes oft unfurled,
And many another college yell by student voices hurled;
Queen's College colours are the dearest in the world,
So, Gaels, go in and win!
This Gaelic war cry, correctly pronounced "kay yi-al" and usually translated as "no surrender," is the rousing conclusion of Queen's traditional cheer (see below). The cheer is now used almost exclusively in the chorus of "Queen's College Colours," popularly known as the Oil Thigh song, but actually predates the song.
The cheer was composed in 1891 by three Gaelic-speaking students: Donald Cameron, F.A. McRae, and another called MacLean, whose first name is not known. It was incorporated into "Queen's College Colours" when the song was written in 1897.
The term "Cha Gheill" is sometimes used separately, especially between older alumni at university occasions, as a jocular equivalent of "Cheers!" or as a salutation at the end of letters.
The original cheer was:
Dearg! Gor'mus! Buidthe!
Oil Thigh na Banrighinn gu Brath!
Cha Gheill! Cha Gheill! Cha Gheill!
This translates as:
Red! Blue! Yellow!
Queen's forever!
No surrender!
It is pronounced:
Jarg! Gormoos! Boo-ee-ee-ee!
Oil Thigh na Banree gu Braw!
Kay Yi-al!
So excited about coming to Queen's, kind of nervous too—just found out that I'm going to be in McNeil House residence; it's right beside the cafeteria, which is pretty sweet. I'm so excited to meet my roommate and I really hope there isn't any snoring! I'm trying to figure out what I need to bring; I've never been away from home for more than two weeks, so I'm making a checklist of anything I might need. Can't wait to move in!
Frosh week was amazing! My Frosh group was called 2 Frosh 2 Furious and a bunch of the people from my Frosh group are in the same classes as I am. The people on my floor all seem pretty cool and Sean and Mary are planning to go into History too, so we might take some of the same courses together next year.
I went to the Clubs Fair with my floor and I'm really excited to get involved this year; I'm hoping that I'll be able to meet more people from different faculties.
I got lost on the first day of class trying to find a room in Mac-Corry. I still haven't found it, but I figure if I set aside Saturday afternoon I'll be able to figure out where everything is!
The first month went by really fast and the work keeps piling up. I've come up with a new reading system: for classes that have stuff due in the next two weeks, I'll do the readings and I'll catch up on the other stuff later. I just need to come up with a good balance.
It was really nice to see my family and catch up with people from High School over the Thanksgiving weekend. Sometimes I really miss having a room to myself, but I'm pretty happy to be back at Queen's. It was actually really weird to go without talking to my roommate every day.
Got my first essay mark back; I'm going to have to work a lot harder than I did in High School. I also think I'm getting sick…I drank a bunch of energy drinks to make it through an all-nighter, so today has been pretty rough.
I'm going to start eating healthier and going to the gym and I'm definitely going to stop procrastinating next semester.
Last day of classes! First semester of university is almost done! I fell asleep in Stauffer last night; I can't wait until exams are over. Four of five exams are out of the way, so far so good, now it all comes down to English. I think I'll go over last year's exam on the exambank to do some practice questions.
Just wrote my last exam! I'm going to sleep for the next 12 hours and then pack for home!
Got some of my marks back; I think I'm probably going to go into Biology. I've started studying on the top floor of Douglas; it's really quiet up there and it kind of looks like a scene out of Harry Potter.
Jasmine, Ayan and Tim have asked me to live with them so we're going to start house-hunting for next year. Hopefully we'll find something close to campus, because Kingston winters are a lot colder than back home.
My marks are much better this term. I got my first A- on a Philosophy essay. I'm really glad I went to the writing centre to go through my essay with them; it made a huge difference.
Gael applications are due soon and I'm thinking about applying; my roommate Spencer and a bunch of people in my Politics tutorial are doing it, so it seems like it could be pretty fun.
Reading week is coming up and then midterms, so I'm going to crack down and actually work all week to get caught up.
Reading week didn't go exactly as planned and it went by way too fast, but I'm feeling good about my midterm.
I saw an advisor named Colin at the Peer Academic Support Service and now I think I know that I want to major in Philosophy.
It's hard to believe I'm almost done first year! We just signed the lease for our house, so we'll be leaving res and moving into our house in just over a month! I got the biggest room in our house, but the floor is kind of slanted; I feel it's a fair trade off.
Two more presentations and I'm finished until exams!
First year classes are done! Back to Stauffer being open for 24 hours…I am so close to being finished.
Exams are done and so is my first year at Queen's! Now it's home for the summer!

Are you concerned about earning money with your detailing business during this recession? If so, here is some good news. By definition, a recession is not all that bad. While it is true people spend less, if you can cut your costs and discover a solid strategy for marketing in a recession, you will discover the ability to earn revenues is much less complicated than you think. In fact, here are five great, low cost methods for marketing in a recession:
Develop an e-newsletter. As the name implies, this is an electronic newsletter than is sent out via email. The cost of sending the newsletter is free and does not come with the postage expenses found with print newsletter. For those worrying about the actual design process for the newsletter, this should not be a concern either. There are many ready templates out there that even a novice can use. You can use services like www.ConstantContact.com or www.Aweber.com. They¡¦re each under $20 a month.
Word of mouth
Take part in common public relations strategies. For example, if something unique and newsworthy happens with your business, you could release a press release to the print and online media. If these press releases are effectively promoted, the amount of new business you could acquire might prove surprising. And, once again, this strategy is a low cost one that can work effectively well in a recession. Pick up a copy of Guerilla Publicity by Jay Conrad Levinson, Rick Frishman & Jill Lublin to get some really great ideas for getting free PR.
Offer online coupons. Many blogging platforms are completely free and they could provide a valuable source for promoting your detailing business. Also, there are a number of sites that offer free webhosting. These sites allow you to create a web presence without any of the high costs of website design or development.
And, as with the e-newsletter, free blogs and websites come with ready made templates. That means there is no need to possess professional design experience to give the blog or website the right look it needs to be competitive. You can get started with a free blog at www.Wordpress.com, or www.Blogger.com.
Increase your
These are but a few of the many ways to boost business during a recession. If nothing else, they should show that marketing in a recession is not as tough as some assume and businesses can even thrive in such an environment.

God's Natural Law
Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind.
Love your neighbor as much as you love yourself.
If a human can accept the reality of the truth of his or her existence on this Earth then that human will realize that all human beings possess a basic knowledge of the principles of God's Natural Law.
God's Natural Law is that rational plan by which all creation is ordered.
God is the giver of Natural Law.
Natural Law is universally binding by nature and the precepts of Natural Law are universally knowable by nature.
There is a core of practical knowledge that all human beings have.
Natural Law holds that we know immediately, by inclination, that there are a variety of things that will benefit us - life, procreation, knowledge, society, and reasonable conduct.
The principles of reasonable conduct hold everywhere and always, and some even absolutely.
God's choosing to bring into existence human beings who can act freely and in accordance with principles of reason is enough to justify our thinking of those principles of reason as God's Natural Law.
The fundamental principle of the Natural Law of God is that all actions must be of the reverance and affirmation of life.
Natural Law is given by God.
Natural Law is naturally authoritative over all human beings.
Natural Law is naturally knowable by all human beings.
Human beings' common nature, their similarity in physiological constitution, makes them such as to have desires in common, and these desires are so central to human aims and purposes that we can build important and correct precepts of rationality around them.
What is good for an oak is what is good for the oak, and this depends on the kind of thing that an oak is by nature; and what is good for a human depends on what is good for a human, and this depends on the kind of thing a human is by nature.
Human beings exhibit a tendency to pursue life, and knowledge, and friendship, and so forth; and reflection on this tendency occasions an immediate grasp of the truth that life, and knowledge, and friendship, and so forth are good for humans.
The affirmation of the claims 'life is good,' 'knowledge is good,' 'friendship is good,' etc.
makes intelligible the persistent pursuit of these ends by rational beings like us.
By careful study of the human beings desire forming mechanisms, one can see that there are certain things that would be necessarily desired by biologically sound human beings.
Certain things are good for human beings.
Primary precepts of the Natural Law bid us to pursue these things.
There a substantive good surrounding the moral rules mankind has formulated.
What is good for humans?
Life, procreation and family, social life and friendship, rational conduct, practical reasonableness, authenticity, integrity, justice, knowledge and truth, virtue and wisdom, appreciation of beauty, aesthetic experience, inner peace, contentment, happiness, health, playful activities and the enjoyment of the natural Earth are good for humans.
There are a number of situations in which there is a right answer, yet in which that right answer is not dictated by any set of man made rules, but rather is grasped by the individual through intuition.
Rational human beings like us are able to grasp our role in God's Eternal Law and freely act on it .
Moral truth is dependent on our being able to recognize practical wisdom.
Moral rightness belongs to a family of concepts to which the notion of reasonableness belongs.
Jesus Christ, Thomas Aquinas, Thich Nhat Hanh held that this master rule is the rule of universal love, that one should love one's neighbor as oneself.
This rule bids us to respond lovingly wherever it can be realized, FIRST NO HARM!
Respect the knowledge that each and every life is an individual one and no two lives can ever possibly be IDENTICAL.
Lives may be similar through cultural, social or environmental means but can never be the same actual SELF.
The Natural Law of God is incompatible with nihilism, with relativist and conventionalist views. (ie popular culture).
All human beings are obligated to obey, it is wrong for us to disobey, and we will corrupt our own souls if we disobey.
Dishonesty with one's self leads to a failure of one's vision, a walk in the dark removed from the presence of God, an acceptance of a false reality based on unattainable fantasy and resulting in great unhappiness which in turn causes both physical and mental corruption.
'Morally correct' by current religious ideology, dogma, has become so corrupt it should be jettisoned, leaving in its place the notion of the reasonable, God's Eternal Natural Law.

Tulsa Stops UTEP, 33-11
Oct. 11, 2012
Final Stats | Quotes | Notes | Final Stats | Photo Gallery
TULSA, Okla. - Alex Singleton ran for two touchdowns to lead Tulsa past UTEP, 33-11, Thursday evening in front of a crowd of 18,961 fans at H.A. Chapman Stadium.
The Golden Hurricane (6-1, 4-0 C-USA) won its sixth game in a row, and has now won 16 of its last 17 league contests. TU led, 6-3, at the half, and outscored the Miners (1-6, 0-3 C-USA), 27-8 in the second half.
Singleton tied the Tulsa career rushing touchdowns record with his two scores Thursday. The 6-1, 260 pound senior from LaPlace, La., now has 32 rushing touchdowns in his career, matching the totals of Michael Gunter (1980-83) and Tarrion Adams (2005-08).
"We just encouraged them to execute a little better and finish drives," Tulsa Head Coach Bill Blankenship said of what adjustments the team made at halftime. "We got in there twice and had to kick field goals offensively. We were playing well on defense. We were playing a little soft early on, and we just had to stay the course and play with a little more passion. We were playing and executing, but not playing with a passion, and that was really my encouragement at halftime."
Singleton rushed 21 times for 96 yards, while junior tailback Ja'Terian Douglas led TU with 128 yards, including an 81-yard touchdown sprint. The Golden Hurricane totaled 281 rushing yards in the game, and outgained the Miners, 479-407 in total yards.
"The thing about Alex is, he has now, to me, inserted himself in the three-man rotation as opposed to just being a guy that we needed at certain times," Blankenship said. "He really has become a force for us. It has given us a whole different dimension that's kind of like throwing a curveball or a changeup."
UTEP quarterback Carson Meger, who replaced Nick Lamaison after the starter left the game with an injury, completed 16-of-23 passes for 257 yards and the Miners' only touchdown of the night. The Miners passed for 376 yards in the contest, while TU put up 198 yards through the air.
DeAundre Brown tallied 14 tackles to lead the Hurricane defense, which forced three turnovers and totaled 10 tackles for loss and six sacks. TU held UTEP to just 31 yards rushing in 33 attempts
The Tulsa defense held UTEP to a three-and-out giving up just three yards on the opening possession, and took over on its own 20 after a 71-yard punt by Ian Campbell. The hurricane then drove 67 yards in 12 plays, fueled by 33-yard catch-and-run from Green to Trey Watts, and took a 3-0 lead on Daniel Schwarz's 31-yard field goal.
The Miners matched Tulsa's field goal on the ensuing drive, moving 80 yards in 11 plays, and tied the score at 3-3 with a 19-yard field goal by Steven Valadez with 5:46 left in the first quarter.
Green completed a 41-yard pass to Thomas Roberson down to the Miner 20, but was stripped downfield and UTEP recovered the fumble. The Miners drove to the TU 49, but the defense held on 3rd-and-5 when DeAundre Brown sacked Lamaison for an eight-yard loss.
After each team traded punts, Tulsa took over on its own 17, and drove 76 yards in 19 plays to a 25-yard Schwarz field goal to re-take the lead at 6-3. The Tulsa drive initially stalled at the UTEP 18, and with 4th-and-6, the Hurricane attempted a 36-yard field goal that went wide left. An offsides penalty on the Miners, however, gave Tulsa new life at 4th down and less-than-one yard. The Golden Hurricane dialed up power back Alex Singleton, who gained the needed yardage with ease. Tulsa took advantage of its second chance on the drive and made the 25-yard field goal attempt.
The Golden Hurricane scored touchdowns on each of its first three opportunities of the second half. TU received the kick to begin the second half, and promptly drove 75 yards in 14 plays to extend its lead to 13-3. Alex Singleton plunged in from one yard out for his 12th rushing score of the season and 31st of his career.
Lowell Rose intercepted Carson Meger in the end zone, stopping the Miner scoring threat and gave Tulsa the ball on its 20 yard line. After a one-yard loss, Ja'Terian Douglas raced 81 yards for a touchdown, extending the Hurricane lead to 19-3, after the PAT sailed wide left.
On the next UTEP possession, Meger was hit as he threw fumbling before his hand moved forward, and Shawn Jackson picked up the ball and ran unchallenged 17 yards to the end zone, putting Tulsa ahead 26-3.
UTEP ended a 10-quarter touchdown drought with a 61-yard pass from Meger to Jordan Leslie with 11:06 left in the fourth quarter. The long touchdown was the only play of the drive that followed a Tulsa punt, and made the score 26-11 in favor of the home team. The touchdown-less streak lasted since the first quarter of the game against East Carolina on Sept. 29.
Singleton scored his record-tying touchdown with 8:46 left in the game from 10 yards out. The run capped a six-play, 77-yard drive. The big play on the drive was a 55-yard catch-and-run down the left sideline by Zack Langer.
Tulsa returns to action Oct. 20 to face Rice in its annual Homecoming contest at 2:30 p.m. at Chapman Stadium. Tickets for the game are still available and can be purchased online at www.TulsaHurricane.com, by calling 918-631-GoTU (4688) or stopping by the TU Athletic Ticket Office, Mon-Fri, 8:30-5 p.m.

No peanut gallery for Mickelson
It wasn't even 10 o'clock on Wednesday, which means you could buy a beer at Torrey Pines Golf Course and call it breakfast, and already the talk had turned to ... taxes.
"He's an honest guy," a man was saying. "He speaks his mind. Who doesn't talk about taxes in America?"
The words floating out of the cart barn were almost enough to make you think it was mid-April and you were at the Augusta National Golf Club for the Masters instead of in San Diego for the Farmers Insurance Open. But that's only if you've been living under a rock.
Everyone else, of course, knows that San Diego's Phil Mickelson, golf's second all-time earnings leader, whose winnings and endorsements topped $60 million last year, had teed off some of his less fortunate fans on Sunday by complaining about the tax hit he'll take this year.
He issued a written apology Monday night for broaching the subject, though not for his comments or the suggestion that he might move out of state. And then he said he'd elaborate Wednesday.
That's why reporters descended on the media tent and the lunch buffet like vultures.
Everyone else, of course, came to Torrey Pines for the golf.
Mike Machado wore a hat bearing the name of Mickelson sponsor KPMG, which his friend had bought to benefit a Mickelson charity, and asked the golfer to sign it. He did, graciously, one of many autographs he gave Wednesday.
This won't surprise anyone who knows that golf galleries are rarely of the peanut variety, but Mickelson and Machado both said no one gave the golfer any lip Wednesday for his comments or his apology.
That doesn't mean the spectators didn't want to talk about it all.
Mickelson's comments drew critics and defenders this week, befitting a country whose politics are deeply divided over taxes.
But unlike Mitt Romney's campaign comment about the "47 percent," the hullabaloo over Mickelson's mention of his "62 percent, 63 percent" tax rate seems destined to die down pretty quickly.
He was funny and contrite Wednesday, saying he's always been happy to pay his fair share but is unsure just what that is now — or what he and his wife may do about it.
"It was insensitive to talk about publicly to those people who are not able to find a job, who are struggling paycheck to paycheck," Mickelson said.
He described using his position as a golfer to talk taxes a "dumb, dumb mistake," but left no doubt about where he stood on the issue.
"This reminds me a lot of Winged Foot 2006, where I hit a drive way left off the tents," he said. "OK, this happened to be way right."
His joke got laughs in the media tent and accolades outside of it.
"My wife is a doctor, so she's in the tax bracket too," Machado said. "I think we figured out she's at like 44 or 45 percent. It sucks."
"It goes both ways," said Machado's friend, Greg Jackson. "He's not struggling to live, you know. He's probably still got a good life, but ..."

Distance learning degrees learn while you earn
We all know the benefits that a college education can bring, but for many of us financial, family or geographical constraints often make this impossible. Perhaps you are chasing your next promotion, and want to gain an extra qualification without having to leave your job and take time out to study for it. For all these reasons, and many more, an increasing number of people are choosing to learn online.
Unlike a traditional college degree, a distance learning course can be tailored to run at your own pace, so that you can fit your studies around whatever commitments you already have. The fact that you can earn money or take care of your family while you study makes distance learning a realistic and affordable option.
Distance learning has moved on from the days when an online degree was seen as worth less than one from an on-campus university. With Ivy League schools such as Cornell, Columbia and Harvard all working to develop their eLearning provisions, distance learning degrees are gaining increasing respect as a perfectly legitimate way to learn in the 21st century.
What can I study?
Online learning courses cover the same subjects that would be available to you at an on-campus school. Subjects such as business, education, computer science and criminal justice are all popular online choices, but you can also gain qualifications for more creative or alternative careers such as interior design or yoga. Programs on offer cover everything from bachelors, masters and associate degrees to doctorates and certificate programs.
Which provider should I choose?
Courses offered by different providers will vary enormously, so it is important to do your research, just as you would for any university or college. Most importantly, make sure that the institution you choose is properly accredited. This ensures that prospective employers will recognise your course and guarantees you that the tutors and resources available meet certain standards. Also check the schools record for past graduates and current students, as this can give a good indication of its quality.
How will I learn?
Every online course will have its own methods of tuition, and while these courses tend to be much more flexible than traditional degrees, it is still important to do your research and make sure you choose the right one for you. Questions to ask yourself include:
|Do I need the support from a tutor or classmates on a regular basis or am I happier working by myself?
|Am I the kind of person who needs deadlines to get things done, or would I prefer a course when I can hand in assignments in my own time?
|What kind of learner am I? If you know you learn best by hearing and doing rather than just reading, then look for courses that offer multimedia resources to help you learn.
Whats the next step?
Use the resources on this page to start researching how a distance learning course could help kick-start your career and achieve your potential.

CobraCo™ - The Brand for Premier Innovative Outdoor Living Décor
Well made. Much sturdier than other similar products. Worth the investment.
If Amazon offers me the option after I write this review, I'll upload a photo I took comparing this product with another, side by side. This product has very thick metal on all parts: S hook, chain, basket & coco liner. I'm pleased with it. The design is difficult to glean from the manufacturer's photo: Imagine drawing a heart (like Valentine's, not anatomy). Round each of the 3 points, so the shape is the same, but they're more U than V. Then insert a big gap between the two bubbles connecting at the top. Last, turn it upside down. That's the pattern. I removed the coco mesh filter to insert a clear, 8" plastic under-plant saucer. I will top that with a potted plant and use it inside (freeing the floor space from yet another plant stand; besides, it's nice to have plants at different levels).

I would agree for the most part because of point 3, but I don't agree that trading Dwight is stupid in a few cases. Like if you could get Kevin Love for him, I think that would be more awesome than stupid.
What makes everyone so confident we will have a potent rebuild in 2014?
Like I said in the past the Lakers have usually gotten TOP-tier players via free agency when we're pretty good and on the cusp of being great.
Frankly, we are not good or great today. I don't know if trading Pau will turn us from *this* to good but if it does, then sure. Re-sign Dwight, renegotiate contracts, and contend.
I think an infusion of just 1-2 guys could make us a good team right now. You never know how these things happen, all of the sudden the vibe and culture of a team starts changing from just a couple guys doing great things.
I think that could get us to being a playoff team and put us in a good place with the expiring contracts we'll have coming off the books in 2014 to make a run at someone great to put us over the top.
This is how it works out in my mind.

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My father is 65 years old and is suffering severe shoulder pain from metastatic prostate cancer. Is there something we can do for his pain?
Erin McMenamin, MSN, CRNP, AOCN, Pain Medicine Nurse Practitioner and Program Manager at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
He should consider asking his physician for a pain medication such as a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) and/or an opioid. After a few days of keeping a diary of his pain medication needs (how often, before certain activities, etc.), further adjustments should be made by his physician if necessary. The NSAID can be helpful for any prostaglandin-mediated pain such as that seen in gout, arthritis, or cancer. The opioid is useful as a stronger analgesic for moderate to severe pain. A short course of radiation therapy can be used to relieve pain from metastases if there is a specific lesion causing the pain. You should speak with your physician directly about these potential options used in patients with cancer pain. In today's world almost every cancer patient who experiences pain should be able to obtain relief of this distressing symptom.
May 29, 2015 - Patients with painful bone metastases and benign lytic lesions that do not respond to conventional analgesics have quick and effective pain relief after injection of a bone cement to support weakened bones, according to a study presented at the Society of

Another arbitrary stat showing only a small, slight sliver of the whole story.
It is possible a single guy can lose the game for your team. I mean, he does handle the ball and make the on-court decisions 80-90% of the time, no? Shooting your team out of the game can hurt everybody. Hardly a "small sliver."
And yes, I saw the defensive collapse in the 4th quarter (I mean, who didn't??), and that was part of the issue. But ask yourself why. Why? Why was there a collapse?? How they played Kobe made him tired and got our other players out of sync. So the Magic were able to put pedal to the metal in the 4th.

RYAN VREDE writes that the Reds have the capacity to ensure the Bulls' poor campaign plummets to a new low.
I wrote last week that Reds flyhalf Quade Cooper has become a more complete player. However, while this is true, on the evidence of their season to date, and specifically their performance against the Stormers, it appears that the team as a whole has evolved. They are now equally adept at winning with sparkle as they are at grinding out victories on the back of a relatively pragmatic approach.
Nowhere was the latter more in evidence than at Newlands, where their 19-6 upset was built on the back of a punishing defence not readily associated with the Brisbane franchise. Certainly their impressive variation in attacking play – which saw Cooper and scrumhalf Will Genia probe for field position regularly and largely accurately – and a greater focus on the set pieces than has been the case in recent years, contributed to their success. However, it is their solidity in the collisions that will most trouble the Bulls. I have no doubt that a replication of that performance on Saturday will see them plunge the beleaguered Bulls further into despair.
A large part of their struggles has been their inability to retain possession for long enough to ask telling questions of the opposition. Against the Crusaders senior Springboks consistently lost the ball in contact at crucial times. Furthermore the accuracy of their up-and-unders was poor and kick-chase lethargic, and thus turned out to be no more than a simple way of surrendering possession. This must change.
Previously the Bulls would have identified the Reds as being vulnerable at the tackle point and built their attacking game plan around punishing phase play. That is no longer the case, which doesn't bode well for the Pretoria franchise given that they have yet to exhibit the variation in play that made them formidable opponents for the past two seasons.
Reds Coach Ewen McKenzie has recognised the need to add whack to their wow factor, and the time he has invested in ensuring his charges aren't a soft touch is reflected in their appreciable strength in this facet of play. It has made their defensive task easier, allowing for increased opportunities to effect breakdown turnovers, or to slow the recycle, the latter enabling the defensive line to set before the next phase is launched.
Bulls captain Victor Matfield promised their supporters an exponential improvement at the Suncorp Stadium. It is a bold move and delivery will hinge on his primary strike runners achieving a level of dominance at the gainline that they have not come close to all season. Pierre Spies in particular needs a performance that will remind us of his value, while Victor Matfield and Bakkies Botha need to provide a counter-argument to the growing view that they are a spent force.
It is perplexing that even in a team with a different complexion as a result of the Bulls' rotational policy (their term) there is no room for Danie Rossouw. He is the one player who has looked capable of consistently bossing the tackle fight and providing the momentum needed on attack.
The Bulls can only persist so long with players whose reputations are sustaining them. They need those men to deliver and do so consistently.

About The Staves
Sister Act Fires Up The Folk Scene (Created April 17, 2013)
Name something in music more trendy these days than folk bands and sibling acts. The Staves combine the best of both worlds, with Jessica Stavely-Taylor the middle child between sisters Emily and Camilla. Raised on a steady diet of 1970's folk luminaries, their acoustic ballads and delicate harmonies have become the stuff of legend, with the band graduating from open mic nights to one of the biggest names to come out of Waterford, England.
How did the Staves get to the point where everybody knows their name? It started with a steady diet of the Eagles, James Taylor and Crosby, Still, Nash & Young. But when their parents pushed them from the dinner table into a more public outlet for performing, they conquered the local pub scene in short order. What's more, the group had a name that stuck when a friend combined their last name of Staveley-Taylor and shortened it to The Staves. It was the spark, for lack of a better name, that had the band off and running.
An appearance on the Tom Jones album "Praise and Blame," and a UK tour with Mt. Desolation were just two of the projects these ladies dabbled in prior to the release of a pair of EPs. The first, "Live at Cecil Sharp House," was followed by "Mexico" (both 2011) before the band appeared on Fionn Regan's third studio album "100 Acres of Sycamore."
It didn't take long before this sister act also kicked open doors in the US. They supported the heavily talked-about group The Civil Wars on tour in January 2012. That gig opened doors to a spot at South by Southwest in March and the Austin to Boston tour the following month. The band then served as a supporting act for Bon Iver on their Norther American tour.
The Staves' debut album, "Dead & Born & Grown" bowed in November 2012.

- Parsing: the grammar is used to to produce tree of tokens representing the source code
- Conversion: An abstract syntax tree (AST) is created from token trees.
- Semantic Analysis: Performs consistency and validity checks that the grammar can't check for, and resolves classes.
- Canonicalization: Complete building the AST
- Instruction Selection: instruction set is chosen, for example java5 or pre java5
- Class Generation: creates the binary output in memory
- Output: write the binary output to the file system
- Finalization: Perform any last cleanup
Generally speaking, there is more type information available later in the phases. If your transformation is concerned with reading the AST, then a later phase where information is more plentiful might be a good choice. If your transformation is concerned with writing AST, then an earlier phase where the tree is more sparse might be more convenient.
As a particular example, Groovy aggressively and statically types the static properties of a class, as demonstrated here:
So if you want to create an AST transform that creates a static property, you have to hook in before this check is performed: in practice, this means the Conversion phase (Semantic Analysis is where you get busted). In using a phase that early, though, most types won't be resolved, and so insofar as type resolution is significant (e.g. in checking for annotations of a particular class), it will have to be hand-rolled.
To learn more about what AST is produced in each phase, you can use the AST viewer in Groovy console to explore the output in different phases.
