Gift from Death Valley became "Death Valley" tradition

CLEMSON, S.C. -- Ohio State dots the "i." Tennessee runs through the "T." Texas A&M has midnight yell practice. Florida State has Chief Osceola, Renegade and a flaming spear.
But few college football traditions generate as much excitement and pageantry as Clemson's players rubbing Howard's Rock and running down the Hill before each home game at Memorial Stadium.
"It's very emotional going up there," Tigers running back C.J. Spiller said. "You know it's game time when ...

Still, try single area autofocus, you may have more success with that. You can change the size of the focus point appropriate to your subject and distance.
Yep, tried that. It's even more unstable so I went back to 23-area.

MIAMI, FL (June 21, 2012) - Newly crowned International Boxing Federation ("IBF") Welterweight World Champion Randall "The Knockout King" Bailey is finally in position of leverage with his third world title belt and a recent "Knockout of the Year" performance against previously unbeaten Mike Jones. Now, it's time for this feared slugger to cash in, after 16 often frustrating years as a professional prizefighter.
Bailey (43-7, 37 KOs) would love to welcome Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr. when he gets out of jail in a few months but, if the price is right, Randall also wants to make it perfectly clear that he'll fight any deserving 147-pounder in the world.
"I've been avoided forever," Bailey said, "but now I'm coming off a world title fight win that ended with a punch people are going to be talking about for a long time. If I had a choice, I'd fight Mayweather next. I like the way Floyd's fighting. He's not running around so much to try to win on points. He's giving guys an opportunity to hit him and that's my type of fight..
"I told him (Jones) that I was going to knock him out. In my mind, that was the only way I'd win the fight. I watched a few of his fights that were close, like the (Jesus Soto) Karrass fight, and I was concerned about winning a decision. I knew when I grazed him in the first round that he'd take off like a thief in the night. The kid ran from me a lot and I caught a lot of his punches with my gloves. I waited for him to sit down for a second. I didn't have that much on my punch (straight right) in the 10th round (Jones was decked for the first time as an amateur or pro) because my leg was twisted. In the 11th, he was laying in under his jab so I couldn't hit him with my overhand right. I decided to back up and as we got closer, he kept his chin down to keep away from my overhand right. It was just natural for me to come with my uppercut like I did. That was my best punch ever. It had so much on it that it looked like my fist was in his face. I hit his nose and it felt like meat coming out."
"That punch was similar to the punches he knocked out (Jackson Osei) Bonsu and (Frankie) Figueroa with," Bailey's manager Si Stern noted, "but this was the best punch I've ever seen Randall land. I'm so proud of Randall. He's at the top of his game and a three-time world champion. His one punch produced the 'Knockout of the Year', if not the 'Knockout of the Decade'. We have the world title belt and won't fight on the cheap. We already have a half-million dollar offer to fight overseas, so why would we take a cheap fight? Once Mayweather gets out of jail, he won't find a better opponent to fight than Randall Bailey, who is one of the most dangerous fighters in the world. Mayweather-Bailey has the potential to be a classic fight.
"We'll listen to any offers - (Paulie) Malignaggi, (Devon) Alexander, (Andre) Berto, (Victor) Ortiz, even (Manny) Pacquiao or (Timothy) Bradley - if the price is right. Randall has been avoided like the plague; they've been scared to death because of his one-punch power. We'll only have one or two opportunities for a big fight before his mandatory is due. It would be crazy for him to fight now for short money."
Randall Bailey Day in Key West, Florida
Saturday, July 15 has been named Randall Bailey Day in Key West, Florida. Special festivities honoring Bailey will be held all day, highlighted by a parade through Key West.
The Jones fight was extremely emotional for Bailey, who has rarely expressed himself like he did before and after his last fight. He entered the ring wearing a black mask and broke down in the corner before celebrating his victory.
"I wore the mask because I felt I'd been invisible for years," Bailey explained. "Nobody saw me before and I wanted to keep it that way. After all of the talk and pressure I put on myself, training and the sacrifices I made, to do what I did, well, it all came out of me after the fight. It wasn't fake."
Bailey also clarified speculation about him fighting Devon Alexander on August 25. "Alexander has to get in line like I had to," Bailey stated. "He must think that they can throw around a few bucks and I'll fight him. What I'm saying is I will fight anybody for the right money."
Bailey is 37, celebrating his next birthday September 1, and as remarkable as it is to win a world title at his age, even more impressive is he did it more than a decade after capturing the Interim World Boxing Association ("WBA") Light Welterweight Championship (W-KO3 vs. Demetrio Ceballos), 13 years since his first world title victory for the World Boxing Organization "("WBO") junior welterweight belt in 1999 (W-KO1 vs. Carlos Gonzalez).
"If people look at my record," Bailey remarked, "they'll see that I've only had a few tough fights, no Corrales-Castillo type fights. I've only been fighting once a year because opponents have stalled, thinking I'd be getting older. All of that has worked to my advantage. The worst thing that they can do is let me rest. I live a clean life and haven't damaged my body. I'm a young 37 with a lot left in the tank."
Patience has finally paid off for the quiet, unassuming Floridian with the huge punch, who got into boxing for the most simple of reasons. "I enjoy fighting," he concluded. "I just love beating the hell out of a guy and then get out of the ring without going to jail for doing it. I got into a lot of street fights as a kid. I wanted to fight without getting into trouble and boxing was the way for me."
Call Randall Bailey a late bloomer who has certainly paid his dues in the ring. His stunning stoppage of Jones propelled him into The Ring Magazine ratings at No. 9 and all he wants now is a significant payday, one that he so richly deserves, to take care of his family. Show Randall the money!

|Browns at Redskins Point Spread Odds, Trends, Injuries & Matchup
|Written by Anthony Rome
|Wednesday, 15 October 2008 10:08
Season Saved?
Washington, DC - The Cleveland Browns may have revived their season with an upset of the defending Super Bowl champions.
Now they have a chance to generate more momentum when they try to knock off a tough NFC East team for the second straight week.
The Browns look to build on their big victory and even their record when they face the Washington Redskins at FedEx Field on Sunday.
Oddsmakers from SBG Global have made Redskins -7 point spread favorites (View NFL Football odds) for Sunday's game (Game Matchup). Current public betting information shows that 57% of bets for this game have been placed on Browns +7 (View NFL Football bet percentages).
A popular pick to win the AFC Central this season after going 10-6 and just missing the playoffs last year, Cleveland (2-3) was a major disappointment through its first four games, getting outscored 78-46 and losing its first three contests before knocking off lowly Cincinnati on Sept. 28.
The red-hot New York Giants came to Cleveland for the Browns' first Monday night game in five years, and few gave the hosts much of a chance of winning. Instead, Cleveland turned in its best performance of the year, winning 35-14 to deal the Giants their first loss in five games this season.
"This springboards us into our second season," said receiver Braylon Edwards, who caught five passes for a career-high 154 yards and two touchdowns. "The first three losses are over. We have 11 games left to play like we did tonight."
Derek Anderson, who before last week was on the verge of losing his starting job, went 18-for-29 for 310 yards - 225 in the first half - as Cleveland was able to insulate him from New York's usually ferocious pass rush. Anderson wasn't sacked in the game and faced very little pressure.
The Browns racked up 454 yards of offense, and didn't punt for the first time since 1995. Coach Romeo Crennel, however, didn't want to overstate the importance of the win.
"We still have a lot of work to do," he said. "The season is still a long season and just because we won one game it doesn't put us in the playoffs. We're not even .500."
Crennel's team committed 10 penalties for 55 yards, a problem that has plagued the Browns all season. Cleveland has been called for 52 penalties, tied for fourth-most in the NFL.
Still, Crennel had to be happy with the stunning all-around performance by the Browns. Eric Wright was named AFC defensive player of the week for returning an interception 94 yards for a touchdown, one of three Cleveland interceptions of Eli Manning, who was limited to 192 yards passing.
Now the Browns will try to duplicate that effort against Washington (4-2), a team that was on the wrong end of an equally shocking result last week.
Coming off back-to-back road victories over Dallas and Philadelphia, the Redskins returned home to face winless St. Louis with a chance for their fifth straight win. Washington's offense, though, committed its first three turnovers of the season, and Josh Brown kicked a 49-yard field goal on the last play to give the Rams a 19-17 victory.
Washington was playing as a huge favorite for the first time under coach Jim Zorn, and it showed. Running back Clinton Portis said the Redskins overlooked the Rams, who were supposed to be the first of three easy wins in the soft part of the schedule.
"The headlines got good. The guys started high-fiving," Portis said. "We hadn't thought ahead all season long until this week. ... The previous four games, the focus was there."
Zorn's team will try to recapture it after blowing a late lead last week. Portis' 2-yard run with 3:47 left put Washington ahead 17-16, but Marc Bulger hit Donnie Avery for a 43-yard gain on third-and-13 to move the Rams into field-goal range.
"I don't think we saw ourselves as an elite team, strutting ourselves, walking in and saying 'We are so awesome,'" said Zorn, whose offense committed four false starts that killed those plays. "I just think we tried to win the game. We played hard. ... I don't think we overlooked this team at all, and I don't think we're going to overlook any team."
The Redskins seem all but certain not to take the Browns lightly after the results in each team's last game. Cleveland could look even more formidable offensively than it did entering Monday's game, as Crennel said there's a "50-50" chance tight end Kellen Winslow will play after sitting out against New York with an undisclosed illness that put him in the hospital.
Washington, meanwhile, will have running back Shaun Alexander in uniform after signing the 2005 NFL MVP on Tuesday. Alexander, cut by the Seahawks in April, rejoins Zorn, Seattle's quarterbacks coach for seven years before taking the Redskins job. Alexander will back up Portis, the league's leading rusher with 643 yards.
The Redskins also cut Durant Brooks, who ranks last in the league in punting, and replaced him with former Seahawks punter Ryan Plackemeier. Plackemeier won a competition among four free agents flown in to audition at Redskins Park on Tuesday morning.
The Browns have dominated the series with the Redskins, leading 33-9-1, but the teams haven't met since 2004 and only twice in the past 17 years.

Dante ftw!Its really fun to experience the previos parts of the dmc series. No doubt, at some places the graphics seem slightly "non-HD" and wierd, keep in mind that they were not made to match PS3 or xbox graphocs. However the gameplay is awesome as we all knw already and they have worked really well to inporve graphics to a GREAT extent. A recommende buy for all dmc fans!

Job Description for a TV Anchor
TV anchors work out of a studio and may also travel to do on-site or live reports. Working hours for TV anchors may vary depending on news or feature story coverage; they may have to work uncommon or erratic hours due to breaking news and late-night or 24-hour news broadcasts. Working holidays are may also be required and conditions may be stressful as they race to meet deadlines.
TV anchors are at ease with being in front of a camera and have good verbal skills. They have a clear, pleasant speaking voice and nice appearance. Good grooming and hygiene practices are essential. Makeup is often applied to both men and women to neutralize the studio's lighting.
Job Duties for a TV Anchor
TV anchors deliver newscasts throughout the day, but they are not just spokespeople. Anchors gather information and write news stories of their own, in addition to reading the stories written by other news reporters. TV anchors are sometimes responsible for editing and rewriting news stories to ensure they are accurate and fit within the time and space allotments.
Prior to presenting a story, TV anchors may research current events happening in the local community, as well as state, national, and international regions. They then determine which stories are the most newsworthy and interesting, and organize them so that the most pertinent pieces are presented first. Additionally, these professionals may introduce news correspondents that are reporting on the scene and ask them relevant questions that the public may want to know. TV anchors may also engage in commentary about various community issues and conduct interviews of key figures.
Salary and Job Outlook
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the annual mean salary of broadcast news analysts in the TV and radio industry was $84,710 in May 2013 (www.bls.gov). The BLS also reported that employment for these professionals was expected to decline by about 2% between 2012 and 2022.
Requirements for a TV Anchor
Most employers tend to prefer TV anchors with a background in journalism or mass communications. Coursework for bachelor's degrees in broadcast journalism include reporting, news writing and editing, broadcast reporting and writing, television news production, and media ethics. A mass communications major takes courses like journalism, multimedia communications, electronic media, broadcasting, and media ethics.
Practical experience while attaining a college degree is also beneficial for broadcasting students. Students can work at their college's broadcasting station, part-time jobs, or internships to learn and apply basic skills, as well as gain work experience in the industry. College graduates generally work their way up the ladder before finding a seat at the news desk. Many TV anchors first prove themselves as competent reporters, writers, or correspondents first before advancing.

What they Say....
Interested in an internship? Want to know more about what being an intern at the UNESCO Office in Geneva entails? Read on to learn what previous interns have to say about their experiences.
"Interning at the UNESCO's Geneva Liaison Office (GLO) was an extemely valuable experience with learning outcomes at different levels: it wasn't only learning by seeing but also learning by doing. During my internship I participated in meetings of relevance to UNESCO at the UN, at other organisations' premises and at the Graduate Institute, reported thereon and completed some research. The variety of the meetings' topics, the opportunity of being directly involved in a project, working in such an international environment and sharing experiences are something I particularly enjoyed. Also, the internship allowed me to learn more about the functioning of the UN system in general and made me better understand how UNESCO implements its mandate. Finally, this internship also helped me in my career planning".
Micol L (Swiss) UNESCO Intern, October to December 2011
"Interning at the UNESCO Liaison Office in Geneva had an invaluable impact on my higher education and understanding of the international system in general. During my time at the office, I was exposed to a vast variety of committees and councils and had the privilege of meeting and speaking with dozens of interesting people working in international relations from all over the world. The internship allowed me to fine tune my interests and career direction, whilst also improving my applied professional skills in an international context. I recommend the experience to anyone hoping to pursue a career in international relations or who would like a more comprehensive understanding of multilateral diplomacy in the United Nations system".
Kristen F (Australian) UNESCO Intern, September to December 2011
"Being part of the UNESCO Liaison Office in Geneva for the past three months has been a very rewarding experience. I had the opportunity to get involved more in depth in the UN System. Attending diverse meetings taking place at the Palais des Nations, such as the Human Rights Council, the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women and the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, enabled me to further develop my knowledge of human rights issues and the importance of the UN's role in guaranteering them. Although it is a very small office, the colleagues are extremely helpful and sensitive to the needs of the interns. This was, without doubt, a very interesting experience".
Shadya K (Colombian/Lebanese), UNESCO Intern, September to December 2011
"Interning with UNESCO's Geneva Liaison Office has provided an excellent complement to my academic studies, providing insight into the practical applications of political history and international relations to the context of global governance. Attending meetings at the Palais allowed an insider's look at the operating procedures of the UN system - the Human Rights Council, for example, including the Special Session on Syria, illuminated the dynamics between states, UN agencies and international organizations. ECOSOC provided the additional opportunity to interact with personnel from Headquarters, giving a glimpse at the diversity of UNESCO's inner workings on both the micro and macro levels. Working for UNESCO has thematically expanded my career interests, while at the same time helping to focus my professional pursuits; it has thus proved an extremely fruitful endeavor".
Codi T (American) UNESCO Intern, June to September 2011
"Despite being a small antenna of the Paris headquarters, the UNESCO Geneva Liaison Office provides a great opportunity to explore the UN system from within. For someone who studies international relations and political science, like it is in my case, it could provide a unique experience and valuable support for a main academic course. The latter often does not focus enough on humanitarian aspects, whereas an internship in the UNESCO GLO gives a clear insight into this vast sphere of the UN activities. As an intern I had a chance to follow sessions of both UN principal organs like ESOSOC or Human Rights Council, as well as to examine the work of independent experts within a number of special committees monitoring the implementation of the existing UN Conventions. As a whole, it was a rewarding professional experience".
Mikhail S, (Russian) UNESCO Intern, May to September 2011
"My experience with UNESCO-GLO was an overall positive one. The staff were professional, helpful and took the time to get to know the interests and future goals of each intern. The highlight of the internship was the amount of exposure it allowed to the many different functions of the United Nations. Each meeting attended at the Palais des Nations introduced a new layer of the multi-faceted UN system, providing a better understanding of its place in our world. Within these walls I was introduced to experts, diplomats, professionals, fellow interns and of course some peculiar characters, who each in their own way contributed to my overall experience as a graduate student, summer intern and future professional. It has been a short but significant chapter in my life - an opportunity I am thankful for".
Ashley S, (Canadian) UNESCO Intern, May to September 2011
"An internship at UNESCO's Geneva Liaison OFfice is an opportunity to discover the functioning of the United Nations from within. You will have the chance to attend conferences on a diversity of topics, meet specialists from all over the world and working for numerous different organizations. You may also observe negotiations on difficult issues between the different members. I notably attended the 16th Session of the Human Rights Councitl, which was of the utmost interest because of the intensity of the debates. The experience of the rapporteures particularly triggered my curiosity and it was also interesting to listen to the point of view of NGOs. Finally, the internship allowed me to become familiar with the dynamics of an international organization in which I hope to work one day".
Jonathan H, (German) UNESCO Intern, March to April 2011
" The opportunity to work as an intern at UNESCO's Geneva Liaison Office (GLO) has proven to be extremely rewarding. As an intern here, I have been provided with the rare opportunity to access meetings on a wide variety of topics, including human rights, migration and development and the rights of the child, which has been a perfect complement to my graduate studies here in Geneva. Attending the 16th Session of the Human Rights Council – including the Special Session on Libya - was both a privilege and an honor, as well as a very memorable experience. This internship has been a very immersing one as I have come to better understand the entire UN system, achieved a greater understanding of UNESCO's mandate, met experts, delegates and interns from around the world, and seen how international relations are actually carried out in today's globalized world".
Melissa H, (American) UNESCO Intern, February to May 2011
"If you are interesteed in doing an internship at UNESCO's Geneva Liaison Office, you would probably have heard talking a million times about the Palais des Nations, the Human Rights Council or the Human Rights Treaty Bodies. All these, I would say, almost mythological" places and UN bodies will be part of your everyday life if you have the chance to be part of the wonderful staff of the UNESCO's Geneva Liaison Office. I found myself sitting next to international experts and country delegates discussing topics ranging from the implementation of human rights to environmental issues. Besides the interesting work interns had to carry out, which consists in following up and reporting on major UN meetings and conferences, to me the best part of the internship was meeting passsionate and incredible people, including all the other UN interns, with all their ambitions and dreams, who inspired me deeply".
Stella A, (Italian) UNESCO Intern, October to December 2010
"To make an internship at UNESCO's Geneva Liaison Office (GLO) is a unique life experience. It not only provided me with the opportunity to understand how UNESCO works to fulfill its mandate in the numerous fields of competences it has, but also to get a first hand insight of the whole UN system. I can say that my days working here were never routine, as I had to make research, write reports and attend various meetings at the Palais des Nations and the Palais Wilson. Attending such meetings gave me the chance to learn from the work that different professionals perform in various fields related to the UN as well as to understand how policy formulation is made in an international level with the cooperation of government delegations, international organizations and civil society. Furthermore, the GLO staff was always friendly and helpful, which made me feel supported at all times. And of course, living in the beautiful and multicultural Geneva just made my internship simply perfect."
Inge R, (Mexican) UNESCO Intern, July to October 2010
"The UNESCO Geneva Liaison Office internship during the Summer of 2009 provided a very fortunate entrée into the workings of the UN system. As a Master's student studying International Organizations, I was able to apply concepts and principles learned through the graduate curriculum in the day-to-day responsibilities of this position. In particular, representing UNESCO during the ECOSOC sessions in the Palais des Nations was an incredible opportunity and provided a level of access which is rare in other UN internships. Attending receptions and interacting with country-level delegates only further added to the experience. As a whole it was a fascinating and informative internship."
Jessica B, (American) UNESCO Intern, May to August 2009
"I was one of the lucky persons who were offered a summer internship with the UNESCO Geneva Liaison Office in 2007. It was one of the most wonderful experiences in my life. From day one, I was very impressed by the highly motivated and professional environment at GLO. All of the staff are extremely friendly, supportive and knowledgeable, whom I really enjoyed working with and learned a great deal from. The internship helped me gain valuable working experience in my major field. It provided me with amazing opportunity to work in a multi-cultural setting and make friends with people from all over the world while enjoying the vibrant life of Geneva".
Hien T, (Vietnamese) UNESCO Intern, June to August 2007
"UNESCO's Geneva Liaison Office (GLO) offers its interns a truly unique opportunity. As someone who has completed nearly a half dozen internships with different organizations, I am in a position to appreciate how a position with the GLO is not your everyday experience. A typical intern would usually be project-based, yet working on a single topic in a back office is a poor way to gain experience or an understanding of how the humanitarian field works. Thus, the diversity of intern roles with UNESCO's Geneva office represents an incredible opportunity. On any given day, interns might find themselves researching a wide range of topics, preparing summaries or reports, or even in the UN itself attending meetings or council sessions. I cannot think of a better way for a student or young professional to gain exposure to the UN and its workings, and I for one found the experience to be truly rewarding."

Delta called in European journalists to talk up its planned transatlantic expansion, but the scribes and scribblers focused more on short-term matters such as the increasingly public pilot rhetoric threatening a strike if the Number Three carrier and the Air Line Pilots Association can not reach a new concessions deal by 15 April. Chief executive Gerry Grinstein said the airline is already seeing 'the book-away' effect in reservations for the next two months "as people become more concerned" though he said he couldn't and wouldn't specify amounts. If the pilots do strike, "we're cooked," he said. The airline's debt covenants let its lenders call in their $2 billion in financing after the first 48 hours of an interruption, and after that "we'd be gone. There would be no Delta." But Grinstein said he still thought a deal would be done this spring.

Bollywood actress Bipasha Basu says she is comfortable with bikinis and her fascination for the swimsuit started when she was a kid.
"When I was two years old, my dad got me a bikini from Australia. I have that picture and that looks really cute. So, from that time I have been a girl who loves sun and beach," the 34-year-old said here Monday after she was declared the brand ambassador of India Resort Wear Fashion Week.
"So, it's something which comes naturally to me. It's not definitely to create a screen image, I am very comfortable off-screen also. I am totally a beach bum," she added.
Bipasha has donned the two-piece in films like "Dhoom 2" and "Players".
Asked which Bollywood actress she feels looks confident in bikinis, she said: "I think Zeenat Aman, at some point, was the hottest actress ever.
"She is iconic, and to match her sexiness is tough for all of us contemporaries.
"In today's time, all girls are fit and look hot and glamorous. I think anyone can look good in a bikini.
"It's just the factors - you need to be little confident. It is not about wearing a bikini, it's about wearing your confidence more," she added.
Bipasha will soon be seen in Suparn Verma's horror thriller "Aatma (2013) " that releases March 22.

Dollar rises as consumer confidence increases
NEW YORK — The dollar rose against the euro Tuesday after U.S. consumer confidence increased to its highest level in almost five years.
Traders also bought the dollar as sales of machinery and equipment unexpectedly rose last month.
The euro fell to $1.2939 in afternoon trading from $1.2963 late Monday.
The Conference Board said that its consumer confidence index rose to 73.7 in November from 73.1 in October. Both are the best readings since February 2008.
The Commerce Department said that orders for core capital goods rose 1.7 percent in October, the best showing since a 2.3 percent rise in May.
The stronger data from the U.S. overshadowed a deal by European leaders to release more financial aid to Greece.
In other trading, the dollar rose to 0.9309 Swiss franc from 0.9287 Swiss franc and to 99.43 Canadian cents from 99.37 Canadian cents.
The dollar slipped to 82.17 Japanese yen from 82.18 yen.
The British pound was unchanged at $1.6018.

Gov't eyes air talks with France
popular .
The Philippines wants to start air talks with France in early 2014 as part of efforts to revise outdated air service agreements and as local airlines seek to expand to the continent after the lifting two months ago of a ban on Philippine carriers, a government official said.
Civil Aeronautics Board executive director Carmelo Arcilla said discussions on gaining expanded seat entitlements were expected to be held by January 2014.
The plan comes as the Philippines completed a successful round of air talks with Italy at the start of this month. Under that deal, the Philippines got 14 flight entitlements from Italy, replacing a previous agreement dated 1969, which provided for only one flight entitlement.
Getting more seats to Europe would immediately benefit flag carrier Philippine Airlines, which announced earlier that it would start a nonstop Manila to London service in November. PAL also plans to fly to Paris, Rome and Amsterdam.
The need for new air talks come as demand for services to the said routes rises. Local airlines also seek new routes for their expanding fleets.
For example, Philippine Airlines, which has more than 45 planes at present, plans to acquire 71 more aircraft in the next five years, including more next-generation long-range Boeing 777 planes.
Rival Cebu Pacific, which has 47 planes, is also expanding its fleet. It is acquiring or leasing 26 new aircraft and retire some seven operating leases, to end 2017 with 62 planes.
The CAB also held discussions in the previous week with Japan, which resulted in what Arcilla described as "one of the most liberal increases so far."
In the new agreement, Philippine and Japanese carriers got 119 flights per week between Manila's Ninoy Aquino International Airport and Narita International Airport, Japan's primary air gateway. The new deal, which replaces the agreement signed in 2008, was deemed necessary as current seat entitlements were almost fully utilized.

Offshore airport eyed near Sangley
Move to decongest Naia, boost tourism
popular .
The developer of Aseana City, which owns key development real estate neighboring the so-called Entertainment City, is looking into the viability of developing an offshore airport by reclaiming land near the Sangley Point military facility in Cavite City.
Delfin Wenceslao Jr., chairman of Aseana Holdings Inc., said in an interview that an offshore airport would ease congestion at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) complex, drive tourist growth to the Aseana Business Park that hosts both Aseana City and Entertainment City, and address security concerns posed by the traditional mushrooming of real estate developments around airports and other sensitive facilities located inland.
With four first-class hotels, casinos, business process outsourcing buildings, condominiums and related facilities being put up at the Aseana Business Park, the area could become a convention and tourism hub, Wenceslao said. Its proximity to the convention and shopping areas of nearby SM Mall of Asia complex could attract a huge number of foreign and local tourists, he said. Specialized schools being built in Aseana City would also make it an ideal place for residential and business developments, he said.
Wenceslao said his company already knew through a study that it was technically viable to construct an offshore airport. "What we're trying to answer is, is it financially viable to put up the airport now?" he said, noting that Hong Kong had the same island-airport model.
Studying the financial viability of having an offshore airport to keep pace with developments in the Aseana Business Park, among others, would require about P100 million to P200 million, the construction expert said.
The offshore airport, he said, would be located six or seven kilometers from the Aseana Business Park. "We're talking of creating about 1,400 hectares, minimum, with right of way so that we don't have issues with the military," Wenceslao said. A two-kilometer causeway could be built to connect the offshore island to the mainland, he said.
The financial study could easily be completed, he said, if the government would support such an undertaking through the current airport administration in Naia.
"The present airport has a single runway and if this gets blocked or congested, the traffic has to be converted to Clark. The recourse is to put up a second runway with a common tower, or just put up an airport in one site. Sangley is expandable and will not be encroached (upon) by other developments because it would be an island," Wenceslao said.
The financial study would push through if the government would support it, Wenceslao said. If the project would be found viable, the government could provide the site or develop the offshore airport on its own, he said.

i am building a topic's system i use this mysql
CREATE TABLE `ftopics` (

the column ( lastrep ) it updated when the member add a new replay for the topic
$result = mysql_query("UPDATE ftopics SET lastrep='$time' WHERE id='$tid'")
or die(mysql_error());
ok now when i want to output the threads and i want to order the topics's by ( id descending ) and also by ( lastrep descending ) in the same time.
when i user post a new topic it shows in the first row in the output but when a nother user post a replay in another topic it should be shows the first one in the table output.
i used this query to output
$get_topics = mysql_query("select id,catid,userid,name,date,lastrep from ftopics where catid='$catid' ORDER BY lastrep DESC, id DESC") or die(mysql_error());
i got the new topic in the first row but any replayed topic it still now going into the top.
i hope that i explained my Q in good way.

19 Filipinos arrested in Saudi, says Migrante
More News from Karen Boncocan
MANILA, Philippines—Saudi police have arrested 19 Filipino workers, including a pregnant woman, a migrants rights group said on Friday.
Migrante regional coordinator for the Middle East John Leonard Monterona said the overseas Filipino workers were arrested by Mottawa and Jawasat police during a raid in Dammam, Saudi Arabia last March 30.
Ten of them are mothers while another woman is pregnant, Monterona said in a statement.
Migrante-Saudi Arabia called on the Philippine embassy to deploy its legal team and look into the possible repatriation of the jailed Filipinos.
Monterona cited Migrante-Eastern region case officer Marcial Abay Jr.'s letter sent Tuesday to Philippines' labor attaché Adam Musa which said that the following Filipinos have been detained in Dammam Central Jail: Willie Formalejo, Roberto Bautista, Hermoso Morales, Teodorico Orlino, Adelino Oroy, Michael Quiliza, Rey Domingo, Ronaldo Go, Genaro Valenzuela, Edna Yuson (pregnant), Aida Bautista, Maribel Jimena, Dolores Reno, Diane Cunado, Luz Palo, Apple Joy Constantino, Baby Jehad, Jheny Cayabo, Jennifer Cortiz and children.
In his letter, Abay told Musa that officials of the Philippine government or embassy have yet to visit the detainees.
Monterona said that there has been an increase in undocumented Filipino workers in Saudi Arabia. He estimated the number to be around 6,000 to 8,000.
"We are quite sure that in other mid-east countries such as Kuwait, UAE, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, there could be thousands more undocumented," he surmised, pointing out that their officers would receive three to five requests for assistance and repatriation from undocumented Filipinos daily.
Such OFWs were usually forced to flee from abusive employers or labor malpractices from non-payment of salaries, working more than eight hours a day without days off to having no overtime pay.
Monterona lamented that there was no government program providing undocumented overseas Filipinos security nor assistance in repatriation and legalization.

Plans to change signage to stop lorries getting stuck in narrow country road
Updated 2:07pm Monday 10th February 2014 in News
PLANS have been made to improve signage on a narrow country road where HGVs keep getting stuck.
The road between Bishopton and Whitton, between Darlington and Stockton, has suffered serious damage in recent months as lorry drivers attempt to reverse after becoming stuck in the narrow verges.
Councillor Brian Jones told a meeting of Sadberge Parish Council that highways officers at Darlington Borough Council and Stockton Borough Council are working together to improve and enlarge warning signs in the area.
It is also thought that an error on satellite navigation systems is causing drivers to think the road is suitable for large vehicles, which officers are trying to get amended.

Platinum Jeweler-to-the-Stars Philip Press to Commemorate Sunset Plaza's Legacy with Exclusive Sunset Retro Event
WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Dec. 7 /PRNewswire/ — Philip Press Master Platinumsmiths, creators of exquisite platinum engagement rings and other diamond and platinum jewelry, is hosting Sunset Retro, a private red-carpet event showcasing the legacy of Sunset Plaza. On December 8, Sunset Boulevard will be glittering more than usual with a unique retrospective commemorating the sensational heritage of West Hollywood's shopping icon and celebrity favorite, Sunset Plaza. The night of vintage Hollywood glamour will feature newly created platinum jewelry by Philip Press, whose showroom is in Sunset Plaza.
Philip Press, Sue Firestone, Hugo Boss and Bluefish have teamed with other fine brands for an enchanting evening that will include:
- A photo montage highlighting Sunset Plaza's history
- A Hugo Boss video fashion show
- Rosenthal Estate Wines from Malibu
- Italian cuisine by Cafe Med
- Decadent desserts by Patchi Chocolate
- Vintage Ducati motorcycles courtesy of Beverly Hills Ducati
- A first glimpse at JPS Motorsports' all-electric reproduction of the 1957 Porsche speedster
- One-of-a-kind platinum rings and other pieces by Press.
"Sunset Plaza has been our home for more than ten years, yet we have never celebrated this West Hollywood landmark's glamorous history," said Philip Press. "This event will give our clients the rare opportunity to take a journey through time – to the golden age of Hollywood – when my own platinum jewelry studio in Sunset Plaza housed the offices of Henry Wilson, legendary Hollywood agent to Rock Hudson, Lana Turner and many other stars. This era was also the time when appreciation for fine craftsmanship in fast cars, Italian motorcycles, well-tailored clothing and intricate platinum jewelry began to flourish, so our event will feature a 1957 Porsche Speedster reproduction, vintage Ducatis, Hugo Boss fashions and retro-inspired platinum jewelry that I recently created."
The red-carpet festivities will be held in a special event tent behind Press' showroom housing displays of relics from Sunset Plaza's treasured past. The VIP guests will be invited to enter Press' platinum jewelry studio to reminisce about old Hollywood while sipping on vintage champagnes and feasting their eyes on the dazzling platinum masterpieces.
Francis Montgomery, head of Montgomery Management, owners of Sunset Plaza, will be on hand to guide invited guests and the media on a tour of Sunset Plaza memorabilia.

Apr 10, 2012 11:11 AM|2bitcoder|LINK
My application is near completion and currently being beta tested at my work place by others. While on my development system everything seems stable, in the wild it's shown to be less stable than I thought.
Hence I'm wanting to write some robust error handling into the application. Right now the largest instances of errors happen when doing an 'insert' or 'update'.
So far I've managed to loose server connections on a few occasions through unmanaged insert / update errors, resulting in server restarst to fix.
I've added code below and I an wondering whether I'm on the right track, or if there is a better way to handle insert, update errors.
Any advice appreciated..
@{ var userErrMsg = ""; var errMsg = ""; var actiontype = Request["action-type"]; var projectno = Request["projectno"]; var description = Request["Description"]; var db = Database.Open(App.conDatabase); try { var row = processSQL.getUsername(App.conDatabase, WebSecurity.CurrentUserName); if(actiontype == "new") { var author = row.Username; var createddate = DateTime.Now; var sql = "INSERT INTO tblProjectBenefits (Description, ProjectRef, Author , CreatedDate) VALUES (@0, @1, @2, @3)"; db.Execute(sql, description, projectno ,author, createddate); } //edit user post else if(actiontype == "edit") { var id = Request["ID"]; var updateby = row.Username; var updatedate = DateTime.Now; var sql = "UPDATE tblProjectBenefits SET Description = @0, ProjectRef = @1, UpdateBy = @2, UpdateDate = @3 WHERE ID = @4"; db.Execute(sql, description, projectno, updateby, updatedate, id); } else if(actiontype == "delete") { var id = Request["ID"]; var sql = "DELETE FROM tblProjectBenefits WHERE ID=@0"; db.Execute(sql, id); } } catch (Exception ex) { // You can use the exception object for debugging, logging, etc. errMsg = ex.Message; // Create a friendly error message for users. userErrMsg = "An exception has occured, please contact " + "your system administrator."; } finally { //Any cleanup code db.Close(); } }

Army SPC Justin Perez-Gorda was severely injured in Afghanistan earlier this year when he got crosswise with a road-side bomb. In fact, Justin was paralyzed – as a direct result of bravely serving his country in a war in which he volunteered to fight. Homes For Our Troops is a non-profit organization dedicated to building specially-adapted homes for America's severely wounded military heroes – at no cost to the veterans themselves.
The Perez-Gorda family says it may soon be receiving much-needed help from the organization, whose motto is "Helping those who have selflessly given to our country and have returned home with serious disabilities and injuries since September 11, 2001."
As one might expect, the Perez-Gordas are extremely grateful to Homes For Our Troops. In a display of appreciation, the family's first-grade and fourth-grade daughters recently wore t-shirts displaying the organization's logo to school. That's where the trouble started. The t-shirts apparently violate the Masters Elementary School's dress code.
Mrs. Perez-Gorda says her girls should have been permitted to wear the t-shirts in honor of both their father and the organization dedicated to helping severely wounded veterans:
"These guys are fighting for our country and they [her daughters] should be able to wear something that honors their parents – especially if they are wounded."
Mrs. Perez-Gorda is right. The Texas school district in which the family lives is wrong.
"We do have a standardized dress code," countered school district spokeswoman Aubrey Chancellor. "We certainly support the military, but we do have to be consistent across the board when it comes to following the dress code."
Yep, schools these days must certainly stick to dress codes. Unless the student is gay. In a recent edition of Rat Droppings from Planet Looney Tunes, I wrote about 16-year-old Maverick Couch, the gay student in Ohio who sued the Waynesville High School over its refusal to allow him to wear a t-shirt to school urging "tolerance for gays." Given the politically-correct madness which is pervasive in our public school systems, ("politically correct" as it relates to everything except Christianity and the U.S. military, that is.) As one might expect, the school caved in like a cheap tent at an Occupy riot. The message? Jesus is not a homophobe.
Too bad the Perz-Gorda girls aren't gay.
What if Justin were gay – do you 'spose the school would've let the girls wear the shirts in that case? It's exhausting trying to figure out political correctness.

Quicksand & Polish also recognises the wonderful 'old school' technology of oil. This technology has greatly improved over the years and we have returned to the tried and true method of burnishing the oil into the timber.

We use natural oil as opposed to a water based finish.. Water based finishes can cause many problems such as bleaching your timber or making the tannin bleed leaving you out of pocket and disappointed. This is not a problem with a natural oil finish. While it may require some maintenance, this is easily learnt, or we are happy to do it for you.
We don't just look after the interior floors either. We can sand and finish your old, weathered decks and oil them with Sikkens Cetol Decking Oil.

Terra Meridiani
October 9, 2009
This image is located near the equator and the prime meridian of Mars in a region called Terra Meridiani. This is a unique area of Mars that displays layers of material that appear to be in the process of being stripped away. This is exposing another layer of material directly underneath that is visible in the central portion of the image. Measurements from another instrument in orbit around Mars, the Thermal Emission Spectrometer on the Mars Global Surveyor, indicate that this region has a high concentration of a mineral called hematite. Grey hematite can form in both volcanic and water rich environments. It is not certain exactly how this mineral formed on Mars, but its presence along with the layering seen in this region makes this region of Mars particularly interesting. Among other possibilities, these layers could be volcanic ash deposits or plausibly sediments deposited in water. Small dunes can be found in depressions. This region of Mars is very old and whatever process took place here, it happened long ago.
