Together with its close relative ginglymoid, these turn up — in the infrequent occasions on which they appear at all, for they are extremely rare — in anatomy. The noun, ginglymus, is a good deal more common.
All derive from the Greek ginglumos, a hinge, and all refer to one of the types of joint found in the skeleton, one that allows movement in one plane only, just as a hinge does; examples are the knee and elbow joints and the joints between the bones of the fingers.
The only example I've been able to find in literature of any of these words is in a nineteenth-century short story, The Enthusiast in Anatomy by John Oxenford: "The skeleton lost all patience, and, raising its arm, shook its fist angrily at Tom, who, with his eyes fixed on the elbow, merely shouted his joy, at perceiving the 'ginglymoid' movement".

The Rev. Janet Loyd blesses Joanne Nysether, of Silvana, at Transfiguration Episcopal Church in Darrington on Sunday morning. Loyd is an elementary school teacher who spent 10 years in special seminary classes while she taught first-graders in Darrington.

The Rev. Janet Loyd leads her congregation in a prayer during the Sunday morning service at Transfiguration Episcopal Church in Darrington
A longtime teacher, Loyd, 55, is on her second generation of students at Darrington Elementary School. She couldn't leave her first-graders to go to seminary, so the Episcopal Archdiocese of Olympia designed a special program for her education. It ended up being a 10-year process.
Loyd, one of a few women in the church who serve rural congregations, led the celebration of the Eucharist for the first time Sunday at her home church, Transfiguration Episcopal in Darrington.
The small church has about 20 parishioners who have depended on people such as the retired Rev. David Price of Monroe to fill the pulpit on Sundays. While they can't afford to support a pastor, in Loyd they now have one of their own to guide them.
What her congregation will call her hasn't been decided. Loyd plans to respond to Pastor Janet, Mother Janet or even Father Janet -- what ever makes people comfortable. Most likely they will continue, affectionately, to call her Jan.
The altar in Transfiguration Episcopal is lined with dark cedar panels that set off Loyd's new spring-green vestments, which she wore Sunday as she broke the bread to serve during communion.
Transfiguration Episcopal Church and St. John Mary Vianney Catholic Church across the street are surrounded by tall second-growth Douglas firs. Their buildings once were bunk houses owned by a logging company. The churches share more than local history and religious tradition, however.
Loyd's ordination ceremony June 20 was held at the Catholic church. Many people in Darrington attended the ceremony, which also celebrated the longtime close ties between the two churches.
"It's an extraordinary relationship," Loyd said. "We're in this together."
Loyd grew up in the Episcopal Church in Southern California. She moved to Darrington in 1987 to take a teaching job and start a small horse farm. She joined Transfiguration Episcopal. There were times when no priest was available to offer Sunday services. Loyd wondered about filling that role.
"God made many things possible, allowing me to be able to become a priest. I had student teachers who covered for me on Fridays at school. I had a car given to me so I could serve my (internship) in Seattle. I had help from St. Aidan Episcopal on Camano Island," she said. "So as the process went on, I knew the call I had felt from God was genuine."
Loyd said her primary goal for now is to help the church grow and to attract some of her former students.
Eileen Draper, Loyd's colleague at school and friend at church, said the congregation is joyful and relieved that Loyd attained priesthood.
"Jan's always on the bright side. I've never heard her say anything negative," Draper said. "She is the embodiment of joy, faith and dedication. This was worth the wait."

Software firm taps PH's manufacturers for design solutions
Multinational software corporation Autodesk Inc. is optimistic that it can attract the Philippine manufacturing industry by using its engineering and design solutions.
Chris Lee, Autodesk's regional industry manager (Manufacturing) for Asean (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) region, says that the corporation offers solutions that will enable "manufacturers to create the adventurous, one-of-a-kind products that previously would have been the domain of individual artisans."
While the country's manufacturing sector has lost some of its businesses to China, Autodesk is banking on the Philippine economy's improvement in the past few years, noting the 7.8-percent growth on GDP.
Lee says that manufacturers can look at the advantages of 3D printing because it can "transform traditional manufacturing processes." The potential of manufacturing can be further maximized when visions are easily transformed into concrete designs.
Consumers and manufacturers can simulate their designs with the use of Autodesk 123D Creature, Catch, Design or other digital prototyping software before they can go to final prototyping. These solutions not only help in cutting down costs but also save time from creating to actual marketing of products.
"With Autodesk 2014 Design Suite for manufacturing, customers can now rapidly explore multiple design ideas and visualize projects now with even greater effectiveness," he adds.
Its manufacturing software is used in creating automotive components, consumer products, electro-mechanical, industrial machinery, industrial equipment, and tool and die machines.
Autodesk is also into architecture, engineering, construction, media, and the entertainment industries. Its products and solutions were used in movies like "Avatar," "Iron Man," and "Man of Steel," which were filled with notable graphics and designs. Its design products also include the Autodesk Product Design Suite and Autodesk Factory Design Suite which aims to simplify design processes that even new graphics designers can use.
According to Lee, the company designed the fuel efficient, two-passenger hybrid car, which it calls the Urbee. The company used 3D design software in designing the car, and all of its body parts were made using 3D printers, including its glass panels.
"It is unlikely that such an iconoclastic vehicle would've been produced by the large automotive companies, with their traditional assembly line manufacturing processes," he says.
Lee attributes the current wide use of 3D printing to the "lowering cost of 3D printers and design capabilities that will power the 3D printing industry."
Aside from these solutions, Lee also introduces Autodesk's cloud solutions, the Autodesk 360, which aims to aid collaboration and streamline workflow.
"Autodesk is the first software company that launched a series of solutions that are available on the cloud," Lee says. "The technology allows users to run very data intensive analysis through mobile devices."
The corporation is known for AutoCAD, its first notable product that helped shape the design industry in the past decades.
Autodesk is an American corporation established 30 years ago. Its commitment to design is punctuated by half a billion dollars worth of investments every year on research and development with 2,000 training centers located in different parts of the world. It posted a revenue growth of $2.3 billion last year.
In terms of customer base, Lee said the corporation has 100 million users especially with the consumer industry. In the Philippines, Tech Converge Inc. is the appointed local distributor for Autodesk solutions.

Veterans Todd Dunivant, Dan Gargan and Alan Gordon highlight LA Galaxy unprotected list for Expansion Draft
CARSON, Calif. -- The champagne was hardly cleaned from the LA Galaxy locker room, before the pace of MLS moved the club's celebration to the background.
On Monday, the Galaxy and the rest of the league's 20 teams released their protected lists for the upcoming MLS expansion draft on Dec. 10. Orlando City SC and New York City FC will plenty to choose from the Galaxy's roster as head coach Bruce Arena opted to leave veterans Todd Dunivant, Dan Gargan and Alan Gordon unprotected as well as several LA Galaxy II mainstays like Rafael Garcia and Charlie Rugg.
Remember, the Galaxy can lose up to two players, but will have the opportunity to protect one from their list if a player is selected.
The complete list of players available, the protected list and the exempt list are below.
CARSON, Calif. -- Time and time again, the LA Galaxy faced considerable challenges during their 2014 season and more often than not, it was their captain Robbie Keane who bailed them out.
Keane did so again in an impressive fashion with his extra time tally that gave the Galaxy a 2-1 victory over the New England Revolution in MLS Cup. Although the Irishman endured a frustrating game to that point, his finish past Bobby Shuttlesworth late in the game proved once more than the MLS MVP was the true class of the league.
"It wasn't the greatest game to be honest with you. It was tough, New England played really well. I have to give them a lot of credit," Keane told reporters afterward. "We went 120 minutes and in the end it's whichever team pulls out stronger. I think we certainly came out stronger in extra time. We're thankful that we got the goal. It was a great pass from Marcelo [Sarvas]."
The goal capped what was the finest season in Keane's illustrious career: Over the course of 34 games in the regular season and playoffs, Keane notched 21 goals and 17 assists in his highest output for one team ever.
And after the game, you could forgive LA for singing the praises of their Irish captain.
"Keane is a guy that you want on your team because he's always going to give it his everything. There's no other way that Robbie knows," said Omar Gonzalez. "It wasn't going our way, but we found a way to win. We stayed composed and waited for our chances and we did that. Robbie had a few chances that he wanted back, but he made sure when the time came that he put his final chance in the back of the net. Now we're champions."
Added head coach Bruce Arena, "Robbie is been unbelievable since he stepped foot in MLS. I've been on record, I've said this, it's very rare that an international player can step into this league, be adjusted instantly and not explain to us how you are supposed to do things and how it's done elsewhere. I've never heard one "this is how they do it at Liverpool or Tottenham." He's bought into Major League Soccer from the start. He's our greatest advocate. It's been fabulous. Look of what we've done since we've acquired Robbie. Is it his team? Naw, its Mr. Anschutz's team to be honest, but he's pretty big asset."

CARSON, Calif. -- Joy. Passion. Glory.
The LA Galaxy felt it all as they won their fifth MLS Cup with a 2-1 extra time victory over the New England Revolution. LAGalaxy.com videographer Albert Lanzillo put a fantastic video of the Galaxy's post game celebration.
Check it out above.
CARSON, Calif. -- It was an emotional week for Dan Gargan.
Not only did the defender win his first ever MLS Cup and help marshall the LA Galaxy defense to a victory, but he had his first child on Wednesday. Following the MLS Cup victory, Gargan, who was the final player signed during preseason, reflected on his wild week.
"It's been an incredible year. I haven't quite processed it all yet, it's a beautiful thing. I've had an amazing week," said Gargan. "My wife gave birth to our first child, a girl, on Wednesday afternoon and I think I've slept a total of seven hours since then. That's not an exaggeration. I can't imagine it's going to add to that total tonight, but we're going to re-evaluate that tomorrow."
CARSON, Calif. -- LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena addressed the media following the Galaxy's 2-1 extra time victory over the New England Revolution in MLS Cup 2014.
Arena's thoughts are below...
(On Robbie Keane...)
ARENA: I don't know whose team it is, but it's nice to have him on the team. Robbie is been unbelievable since he stepped foot in MLS. I've been on record, I've said this, it's very rare that an international player can step into this league, be adjusted instantly and not explain to us how you are supposed to do things and how it's done elsewhere. I've never heard one "this is how they do it at Liverpool or Tottenham." He's bought into Major League Soccer from the start. He's our greatest advocate. It's been fabulous. Look of what we've done since we've acquired Robbie. Is it his team? Naw, its Mr. Anchutz team to be honest, but he's pretty big asset.
(On the half time switch between Landon Donovan and Gyasi Zardes...)
ARENA: Robbie Keane suggested it at half time. He should probably be the player-manager of this team. We had of loose balls, but probably needed to be a little bit cleaner in the final third with our passing, our runs. Moving Landon there suggested we could be a little bit better there. Having said that, Gyasi was very good playing in the midfield. The change helped us. One would think if the game ended 1-0, maybe we'd say "eh, the game was nothing great." But for us to get pushed like, it's only right, and to see that we had the determination to win it out was tremendous. Again, got to give New England a lot of credit. They came in here with a plan. They are a determined, competitive group. Jermaine Jones is a real leader. It was a good battle. Maybe not the greatest game, but there was some drama involved. Maybe that's good as well.

Cleveland is a city in the U.S. state of Ohio and the county seat of Cuyahoga County, the most populous county in the state. The municipality is located in northeastern Ohio on the southern shore of Lake Erie, approximately 60 miles (100 km) west of the Pennsylvania border. It was founded in 1796 near the mouth of the Cuyahoga River, and became a manufacturing center owing to its location at the head of numerous canals and railroad lines. With the decline of heavy manufacturing, Cleveland's businesses have diversified into the service economy, including the financial services, insurance, legal, and healthcare sectors, though the city's population has continued to decline. Cleveland is also home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Freddie Gray's Death Ruled a Homicide, States Attorney Files Charges
All six officers involved in Freddie Gray's arrest and, ultimately, his death, which set off a week of unrest in Balitmore, will be charged with some form of involvement in a homicide, according to Baltimore City State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby.
Although there are conflicting accounts of how Mr. Gray's injuries were sustained, the Baltimore medical examiner was clear that the "severe and critical" neck injury that led to Gray's death was the result of officers failing to follow protocol. Six officers have been charged with counts ranging from misuse of office to second degree murder.
City State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby says Freddie Gray received his critical injuries in Baltimore police custody and has charged all six officers involved in his death.
The state medical examiner's office turned over Gray's autopsy on Friday morning, a day after the police turned over their investigation into Gray's death.

Store Reopens After Failed Inspection
A grocery store that failed a health inspection has reopened.

Hearing Announced for I-64 Project
A public hearing is set on a plan to widen a nearly 4-mile stretch of Interstate 64 in Putnam County. The state Division of Highways says the meeting will happen Monday May 20 at Rock Branch Elementary School in Nitro. Under the plan, two lanes will be added to the four-lane section of I-64 between Exit 39 at Crooked Creek and just east of Exit 45 at Nitro. On each side of that section are six lanes of interstate. Highways spokesman Brent Walker said the project also would likely involve building a new bridge over the Kanawha River. Walker said it could be five to 10 years before work begins on the project, which is part of a five-year statewide transportation improvement plan.

Smokers versus Tobacco Companies; Jurors Will Decide
Five major tobacco companies are named in a case where about 700 West Virginia smokers are trying to establish that they were harmed by using tobacco. The Charleston Gazette reports it may have been the largest panel ever summoned for jury duty...there were more than eight thousand Kanawha County residents who got the jury duty notice in the mail and six jurors and two alternates were picked from that pool.

Immunization Clinic Planned This Weekend
Students who will be entering 7th grade this fall will have to show proof of a Tdap booster and one dose of the meningitis immunization. And those who are about to become seniors will have to show proof of a single dose of Tdap vaccine and at least one dose of meningococcal vaccine given after the 16th birthday. To help with all of that, the Kanawha-Charleston Health Department is holding a walk-in school immunization clinic for all ages from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at the health department on Lee Street in Charleston, according to a news release from the health department. They'll also be giving shots to children entering school and college in the fall of 2013. Just go to the health department's website for more, at www.kchdwv.org.
Grocery Store Closed After Failing Health Inspection
The Kanawha-Charleston Health Department shut down the Fas Chek grocery store in Malden this week after it found 36 food and safety code violations. A meat grinder wasn't clean, and there was water spraying on meat trays, among other things. That Fas Check will be closed until it can fix all of the violations and pass an inspection.
Emergency Responders in Charleston for Expo This Week
Dozens of emergency vehicles are expected to make their way through Charleston this week....no on their way to an emergency, but to a celebration instead. The West Virginia Public Safety Expo kicks off Wednesday night with a parade of emergency vehicles. Organizer Terry Sayre says the annual event typically has at least 50 vehicles in the parade, and draws emergency responders from across the state for workshops and continuing education courses. The parade will begin at 6 p.m. Wednesday and iIt will go along Kanawha Boulevard to the Charleston Civic Center. The expo will be held through Saturday.
Back to Normal Today After Downed Power Lines Cause Delays Monday
A truck hauling heavy equipment hit a power pole Monday and that knocked down power lines. Goff Mountain Road in the 300 block was shut down in both directions in Cross Lanes along with West Washington Street after the power lines came down. Someone inside a vehicle was able to escaped unharmed after cable lines fell on top of it, but drivers in the area faced delays for several hours, and those who live on Brick Lane and Old Goff Mountain Road had delayed access to their homes while crews worked on repairs. Then accidents on West Washington Street and 40th Street in Nitro caused additional problems. Part of Goff Mountain Road near Interstate 64 was shut down for about twelve hours, but all should be back to normal today.

It's a joke. I mean you should have an even playingfield to some extent, for an example TV money distributed evenly to every team in the league (unlike in La liga for some time when only Real and Barca got a slice thus widening the gap between them and the poorer teams even more). However, local revenues and marketing is only the business of that particular team and if some teams do it better and earn money, well that's good for them. You earn your position among the top tier. If your team or city isn't good/interresting enough, tough luck son. If your team isn't playing in the top tier, you have to accept it and hope you and your team can maybe play there in the future. I'm not a rich man atm either, but then I should try to improve my situation, and if I can't, well that's how it is then.
Well the North American sports market isn't entirely comparable with the European football market. In European football there's competition from multiple leagues for players, driving up their prices where as in NA there's basically the big market cities, like New York, LA, Boston, Philly, Toronto(in hockey). So parity is more needed in NA due to it's business/profit orientated franchise structure. In Europe it's isn't that required however the current situation is far less ideal too when relegation/promotion can be decided by financial situations instead of performances on the pitch.

Do you suffer from anxiety, depression or insomnia?
The Fisher Wallace Stimulator, a cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) device, is cleared by the FDA for treating anxiety, depression, insomnia and chronic pain. Patients typically report positive affects within 2-4 weeks, and sometimes as early as after one usage. In very rare cases, the only side effects reported are light headache and slight dizziness. The device delivers micro-currents of electricity to the brain to stimulate the production of neurochemicals such as serotonin, dopamine, and neuropinephrine while decreasing the stress hormone cortisol. Low levels of serotonin and dopamine are directly linked to depression, anxiety, sleep disturbance and other disorders. CES has been in clinical use in the United States since 1963 and in Europe since 1953.
I was first introduced to the owner of the company, Charles Avery Fisher, in 2008. When I learned of this wonderful device I arranged for my father's neurologist to prescribe it for my father who was suffering from Parkinson's Disease for over ten years. I'd hoped that it might alleviate his low grade depression as well as improve his mobility. After the first usage, I was amazed when he was able to grab hold of the arms of his wheelchair and start to pull himself up and stand successfully. This may not sound like much but he'd not been able to get up from a sitting position on his own for months. I was truly amazed at his ability to raise himself up and steady himself. Parkinson's disease lowers your level of dopamine which impacts movement, sleep and mood.
I was also working with veterans as a Clinical Social Worker. I wanted to introduce my friend's company and device to my colleagues who might spearhead research and treatment using the device. They prescribed the device for a few veterans and civilians who were suffering from symptoms of PTSD including depression, sleep disturbances and anxiety. In a short time, one of the patients felt relief from anxiety as well as reported improved sleep. This response was intriguing enough for me to want to spread awareness of this device not only through awareness raisers but also through EP.
In June 2008, I hosted an event at the home of Mrs. Frank Perdue, Mitzi, in Manhattan who took an interest in the device given that she is a big supporter of our military. I invited Chip Fisher to speak at the event along with Robert Cancro, MD, of the International Committee Against Mental Illness, to discuss the device. The attendees were very intrigued to learn about the device.
Robert Cancro, MD, Chairman Emeritus of NYU Langone's Medical Center's Department of Psychiatry, recently launched a program for those suffering from stress disorders under the International Committee Against Mental Illness. The division is called the United Stress Disorders Association. Dr. Cancro is employing the Fisher Wallace device as a non pharmacological form of treatment for those who suffer from PTSD and other stress related disorders.
Dr. Cancro states, "ICAMI recently launched our United Stress Disorders Association that's pursuing treatment and research related to PTSD and other stress related disorders. Currently, we are employing certain non-pharmacologic treatments for stress such as transcendental meditation and the Fisher Wallace cranial electro-stimulator. Studies done at Phoenix House and Harvard, among others, have shown that the device can alleviate anxiety, depression and insomnia with next to no side effects. The only side effects I've encountered with my patients were slight headaches. With PTSD and other stress disorders on the rise we hope to use the device to treat returning veterans and civilians."
Cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) has been shown to produce improvements for individuals afflicted with insomnia, depression, and anxiety who also struggle with substance abuse. Recently, the device was used in a successful pilot program with 399 drug addiction patients at Phoenix House, the nation's largest, non-profit drug and alcohol rehabilitation center. Patients who used the Fisher Wallace Stimulator during their first month in residential treatment were 50% more likely to remain in rehab after 90 days in comparison to those who did not use the device.. Sessions with CES were well tolerated and clients reported improved sleep, reduced anxiety and reduced stress.
The device has been introduced to the military and they are currently using it for treatment at Walter Reed Hospital. You can find more on CES at the National Veterans Foundation website www.vet411.org. Veterans are excited to use the device as so many are suffering from symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Mike Davis, a Vietnam Veteran (US Army, Retired) and Founder of Vietnam Combat Veterans, Ltd. says, "I was a slave to sleep medications for over twenty years. After just one week of twice daily use of the Fisher Wallace Stimulator, I started cutting back on the sleep meds. For nearly two months now, I've been completely off the medications, sleeping longer and waking more rested than ever," For more click on his testimony below:

The CES device is groundbreaking in that it is a non-pharmacologic treatment which has shown to be effective within 1 to 4 weeks after someone starts using the device. Psychiatrists prescribe it either once or twice a day--depending on the severity of the symptoms. With deeply entrenched depressions, twice a day sessions at 20 minute intervals are most effective. Patients will know when the treatment is finished as the device shuts off automatically after 20 minutes. There have been no reports of adverse reactions even when patients have used it more often than prescribed. Although, by no means is it recommended that you overuse it.
In 1974, the FDA funded a safety study of Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation by the National Research Council's Division of Medical Sciences. The National Resarch Council reported back to the FDA that there was no possibility of harm to human subjects from the low level of electrical stimulation (4 milli-amps) delivered by the technology.
CES devices have also shown to be effective in treating obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorders, schizophrenia, addictions and memory problems, although these are not conditions which the FDA has cleared the device for treatment.
Dr. Felipe Fregni, a top neuroscientist at Harvard Medical School, published a recent (2009) article comparing alternative current (AC) and direct current (DC) forms of Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation in a paper entitled "Noninvasive brain stimulation with low-intensity electrical currents, putative mechanisms of action to direct and alternating current stimulation," which you can download and read at the Fisher Wallace website, www.fisherwallace.com.
Columbia University psychiatrist Richard P. Brown, MD, says he has used the device with 400 severely depressed patients and that 75% have found it to be effective-about twice the rate of antidepressants. "I'm seeing some patients smile for the first time in 20 years," says Dr. Brown, who, like other doctors interviewed for this column, has no financial ties to the company.
There have been over 30 published, peer-reviewed studies that speak to the effectiveness and safety of this device. All of these studies are accessible on the Fisher Wallace website and most are available on the NIH website, pubmed.com.
Members of the armed forces and their families may purchase the Fisher Wallace Stimulator at a significant discount through the Fisher Wallace website by entering the coupon code FW495 during the online checkout process. A prescription is required and must be faxed to the company prior to an order being shipped. The purchaser may return the device for a full refund within 60 days of receipt if it does not successfully treat the purchaser's symptoms. More details are available on www.FisherWallace.com.
Patients may find a doctor familiar with the device by clicking on the Find A Doctor link on the company's homepage and entering their zip code.
Below is a list of current ongoing research projects that have been initiated using the device.
* Massachusetts General Hospital (Harvard Medical School)--A study of CES and the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder with David Mischoulon, MD and Darin Dougherty, MD with 25 subjects.
* University of Maryland--A study of CES and it's effect on reducing depression in Parkinson's subjects, with Gad Alon, PhD, and William Weiner, Chair, Department of Neurology.

08.03.05 - By Brad D. - As we are on the verge of several fights that could have changed the heavyweight division, I am left in awe, as in the last few days we have heard announcements from several camps that certain proposed fights are now history. We stand at a crossroads where Rahman/V. Klitschko, W. Klitschko/Byrd, Toney/Ruiz, and Golota/Brewster could change the heavyweight landscape. Ah but wait, send in the clowns!
The first fight that has been tossed aside according to Don King, is Haseem Rahman/Vitali Klitschko. Now, here is something amazing. Rahman, who had called Vitali out on television a number of times, called him a Frankenstein, robot,..etc, and now he suddenly wants more money to fight Vitali. Don King says Rahman turned down 1.5 Million Dollars to fight Vitali Klitschko. What could possibly be going through Rahman's head at this point? Is it fear, or greed?
At this point in his career, Rahman has lost or drawn in his last 5 or 6 fights, and even had issues with the journeyman, Al Ice Cole. If Rahman wanted to resurrect his career, he would have taken this fight. Instead, he is banking on being the mandatory for Chris Byrd. Is Byrd the easier fight? I think Rahman has weighed his chances of winning both fights and has chosen to take the easy way out. Will a fight with Byrd get him 1.5 Million Dollars and a chance at greatness? Not a chance. Byrd will ultimately decision Rahman and keep his belt yet again in another borefest. Beating the IBF champion does not make you "The" champion. This leaves Vitali Klitschko to fight Monte Barrett, who in all fairness, has already been beaten harshly by Wladimir on July 15, 2000, eating canvas some 5 times on his way to being TKO'd. We all know how the Barrett/V. Klitschko fight ends. Rahman only had a punchers chance against Vitali, but that's one chance he should have taken. Bye bye 1.5 Million dollars!
Rahman, with your choices of last 5 padded opponents, and your previous 3 losses and a draw before that, this is an opportunity that will not come again. You've had 2 WBC Championship fights before. That was it.
Let's move on to that other boxer, Chris Byrd, the IBF "Champion" of the world. Here we have a gentleman that has claimed foul play at the hands of Wladimir Klitschko in their first one-sided battle on October 14, 2000, where Wladimir decisioned Byrd over 12 rounds. Byrd has claimed everything from being sick, to being posioned in their first meeting, to which he took a beating at the hands of Wladimir. Now, as I sit here and think about this, the perfect opponent for Byrd is Wladimir Klitschko. Wlad has lost every bit of the confidence he once had, and now fights tentatively, and without that aura of invincibility he once carried. Can Chris Byrd knock out Wladimir? Chances and history have proven not a chance, but he might be able to fight back more convincingly this time and try to avenge his loss.
Chris Byrd, in his last 3 fights, has really had things handed to him on a silver platter. One certain gift decision against Fres Oquendo, one really bad looking fight against Andrew Golota, which I thought Andrew did plenty enough to win, and one fight against Jameel McCline, who has proven over and over he's going nowhere in the heavyweight division, in which Byrd looked slower than ever, and was knocked down in the process.
Shelly Finkel is now quoted on another site as saying that Byrd won't even fight Wladimir for 2.5 Million in the U.S. now.
If this is true, Rahman and Byrd, I know a duck when I see one.
Don't get me wrong, I don't agree with Wladimir's choices in the past either, such as not avenging his own losses, but then again, Wlad wasn't the one beaten by Byrd. It was the other way around. Wlad should have also taken on Purrity, Sanders, and Brewster, but that's for another article my friends.
The bottom line is, for Byrd, who complains constantly about no one wanting to fight him, and complains constantly that he never gets paid enough money, this whole deal looks bad for his legacy. Byrd lately has instead of taking the big fights, almost begged for the easy mandatory challengers.
Byrd needs to try to get a fight with Vitali or avenge his loss to Wladimir, end of story. Only then can he be the true champion that he claims he is, and prove to the whole world he isn't just lucky in his last few fights.
Yeah, Chris, you and I were both surprised at the end of the Oquendo and Golota fights.

The warm and funny Salman Rushdiethe PEN prez credited the guests for the "heroic act of restraint of not reading from their own works"welcomed the standing-room only crowd, who'd snaked around Cooper Union patiently waiting to get into the Great Hall, without beating around the Bush: "[t]errorism. . .is the great civilizational test of our time." And the U.S., he asserted, is "failing" that test. (PEN's agenda includes helping to defend public access to government information, to preserve free speech and personal privacy, and to push for U.S. policy asserting these rights here and abroad. But that's it.)
With that for a backdrop (a lonesome American flag also drooped around its pole behind the podium), artist Laurie Anderson strode onstage and read, in a sometimes fluttery, sometimes liquid style, from Dave Hickey's tremendous collection of essays on "art and democracy," Air Guitar. Writer-screenwriter-director Paul Auster poetically rendered Thoreau's essay "Slavery in Massachusetts," which included the comparison of the unjust, media-controlled citizenry to a "dog that returns to its vomit." The exquisite Don DeLilloserene but for his shoulders, which twitched as if electrified by the text in his handsrecited "Report From a Besieged City," a journalistic war narrative by Zbigniew Herbert that ends, "Only our dreams have not been humiliated." Later, novelist Francine Prose gently read Herbert's dreamlike account of the time leading up to a group's execution by firing squad.
Inalienable rights like hope and humor mingled with anger and absurdity. Foer, obviously no hero, compiled Bushisms like "How many hands have a I shaked?" into a sometimes grimly funny but mostly indulgent display of Princeton pride (how writerly of him). Chilean poet, playwright and novelist Ariel Dorfman, going to the heart of language and difference, highlighted a section of Don Quixote evoking Abu Ghraib, while alternating between Spanish and English. A.M. Homes even revitalized A Coney Island of the Mind. In closing, Rushdie read Cuban great José Martí for Francisco Goldman, who could not attend, and John Dos Passos for Norman Mailer (ditto), who picked just one line: "All right, then, we are two nations." Red and blue, I presume. The grass seems greener over here.

Last week I posted a huge article titled Freezer Cooking 101 – Everything you need to Freezer Cook Like a Pro. Freezing foods is a great way to buy things on sale and preserve them for later. Most foods can be frozen with no problems. It is important to note that some foods need preparation before being placed in the freezer. Other foods don't freeze well under any circumstances.
Here's an easy list of foods that you can freeze:
- Butter
- Cheese
- Cottage cheese
- Egg whites (must be raw)
- Ice cream
- Milk
- Whipped cream (sweetened, in individual serving dollops)
- Whole eggs (follow these extensive prep notes here)
MEAT, POULTRY, and SEAFOOD:
- Bacon
- Beef
- Chicken
- Crab
- Fish
- Hot dogs
- Lobster
- Lunch meat
- Pork
- Sausage
- Scallops
- Shrimp
- Turkey
- Wild game (venison, rabbit, duck, pheasant, squirrel, goose)
Almost all produce can be frozen. Here are some that freeze particularly well. Make sure to follow prepping directions here for best results.
- Artichokes
- Asparagus
- Avocado (pureed and prepped with lemon juice)
- Beets
- Berries
- Broccoli
- Brussels sprouts
- Carrots
- Cauliflower
- Cherries
- Greens (including spinach and collards)
- Mangos
- Melon (chunks)
- Mushrooms
- Okra
- Onions
- Peaches (peeled, sliced)
- Peas
- Pineapple (chunks)
- Potatoes
- Pumpkin
- Squash (summer squash, zucchini, and all winter squashes)
- Strawberries (hulled)
- Sweet potatoes
PRODUCE THAT YOU CAN FREEZE (but only in certain circumstances):
- Cabbage (will be soggy, CAN be used in cooked dishes after frozen)
- Celery (only to be used in cooked dishes)
- Garlic (frozen in oil)
- Herbs (frozen in water or oil to be used in cooked dishes or dressings)
- Overripe bananas, peeled (great for smoothies and banana bread)
PRODUCE THAT CAN BE FROZEN in syrup packs:
- Apples
- Citrus fruits
- Grapes
- Plums
- Pomegranates
These items do very well in the freezer. Because of their high fat content they would go rancid sooner if you only stored them at room temperature. The freezer helps preserve them for months longer than the pantry.
- Nuts (also nut flours are great in the freezer)
- Seeds
- Flours (high in oil content like wheat flour)
- Biscuits
- Brownies
- Cakes (unfrosted)
- Croutons
- Muffins
- Cookies
- Quick breads (like banana bread)
- Fruit cake
- Doughnuts (unglazed)
- Pie (fruit, meat, nut, sweet potato, and pumpkin are all okay. DO NOT freeze pies with meringue on top)
- Pizza – reheat at 400 degrees
- Yeast breads
- Pizza dough – uncooked
- Pie shells – blind baked (ready to fill)
- Cookie dough -individually freeze then place in zipper bag
- Cake Batter
- Yeast dough
- Pesto sauce
- Wine (freeze in ice cube trays for use in sauces)
Tips to make dinnertime easy with COOKED FOODS THAT FREEZE WELL
(Make sure to cool completely in the fridge before freezing.)
- Baked Breads (cooled completely before wrapping). We load up on clearance breads from our grocery store. They have a rack at the back of the store where all the breads are up to 75% off. These are great time savers for Sunday afternoon meals when you are so hungry when you get home. Also, bread helps a meal stretch to serve so many more people. Frozen loaves reheated in the oven are perfect for when you're hosting surprise dinner guests!
- Casseroles (like this one!) (Unless otherwise noted in recipe, thaw overnight in fridge, bake covered at 350 for one hour or until bubbly.)
- Chicken and turkey – deboned and chopped, freeze in 1 cup portions for easy thawing and recipe use
- Ground beef – freeze in 1 cup portions for easy thawing and recipe use
- Pasta, undercooked – do not rinse – do not add sauce
- Tomato based pasta sauce
- Here's a great resource on how to prep your fresh meat and veggies for freezer storage.
See this great chart here for food storage times.
- Cooked egg whites
- Cream based soups and sauces
- Cucumber
- Desserts with meringue
- Fried foods (become soggy)
- Frostings/icing that include raw egg whites
- Fully cooked pasta (can be frozen in dishes if undercooked)
- Fully cooked rice
- Gelatin
- Hard-boiled eggs
- Lettuce
- Mayonnaise and mayo-based salads (tuna salad, egg salad)
- Sour cream
You can learn more about how to prepare foods for freezing and some great tips here on Freezer Cooking 101. What foods would you add to this list?

One of my favorite summer treats – is a homemade Strawberry Rhubarb Pie. I was so worried that I wouldn't be able to eat it anymore – so I adapted my recipe to make it Gluten-Free. You can make this with a regular pie crust as well, but if you eat Gluten-Free try out my pie crust recipe! This also is dairy and egg free too!
Best Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
Crust: (adapted from Betty Crocker recipe)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup shortening or Coconut oil
- 2 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour (I used Better Batter because I am gluten-free)
- 8 tbsp cup cold water
- Mix together flour and sale
- Cut in Shortening or coconut oil with a pastry blender or use your hands to break it up into small pie sized pieces.
- Add water gradually until you have a nice consistency.
- Split apart into two balls roll and roll each ball flat into a pie crust. This will make enough for a double crusted pie.
Pie filling:
- 2 cups of Strawberries
- 2 cups of Rhubarb
- 1 1/3 cup Sugar
- 1/3 cup All Purpose Flour (I used Better Batter because I am gluten-free)
- 2 Tbsps butter (optional – omit if dairy free)
- Preheat over to 425 degrees F
- Cut up Strawberries and Rhubarb into small pieces.
- Mix together Sugar and Flour.
- Put 1 cup of Strawberries and 1 cup of Rhubarb in the pie crust.
- Top with half the sugar/flour mixture.
- Put the rest of the strawberries and rhubarb in the piece crust.
- Top with the rest of the sugar/flour mixture.
- Cut up butter into small pieces and layer on top.
- Put top of pie crust on and cut slices in the middle.
- Put tin foil around the edge of the pie to prevent crust from burning
- Cook for 35 minutes (put a cookie sheet under the rack to catch any drippings.)
- Remove Tin foil from outside of crust and continue to cook for an additional 10-15 minutes or until crust is golden brown.

Our favorite place to vacation is Topsail Island, NC. We always book our rental home through HomeAway and VRBO. This post is brought to you by HomeAway, to help you save on vacations too!
Everyone has different ways to vacation. Some like to go to Disney, some like to be tourists, but we like to do NOTHING on our vacations.
My family's ideal of an affordable family vacation consists of:
A house on an ocean beach
No itinerary
Minimal touristy stuff
Most importantly, a GREAT price
In this post, I'm gonna share our favorite destination and our secrets to getting an awesome price and keeping vacation costs low!
Secret #1: For years, we've been using VRBO, which is part of the HomeAway family, to book our vacations. They have a database of over 190 MILLION rentals available to just about any location around the world, but our favorite destination is a simple, old, small beach town.
Our favorite destination: Topsail Island. I actually have to give credit to my friend Colleen for turning us on to both VRBO and Topsail Island. Back in 2008 when we lived in Charlotte, our good friends rented a beach house. They had a spare room, so they invited us to stay a few days with them (we only had one kid then). We went and LOVED it. They had a gorgeous 4 bedroom house right on the beach, and when they told us the price they paid, we couldn't believe it.
Why Topsail? It is very family friendly. There's really just one main road that goes up and down the coast and it's lined with houses. There are hardly any huge tourist attractions to think of, which is one of the reasons that we love it!
What do kids want to do on vacations? Play. Swim. Splash. Run around. And what do I like to do on vacation? Relax. Read a book. Play board games. Don't get me wrong, I love visiting awesome attractions. But with the ages of our kids, it's almost not worth it sometimes. Have you ever taken a cranky 21 month old to an amusement park? I haven't, and I'm not about to try.
With a small beach town, you also get cheaper prices. I actually just booked a beautiful HUGE 5 bedroom oceanfront house for $1,785 for the week! The beach is just steps away (no road to cross, it's literally right there!) We are gonna split the cost with my sister and her family too, which brings the cost down even more. By renting an entire house instead of getting a hotel, you end up getting more than twice the square footage for the same price.
We can't WAIT to get back there. We had to skip 2 years (giving birth to Abby, and then traveling 12+ hours with a 12 month old wasn't gonna happen last summer).
Secret #2: We rent during just off-peak season. Topsail Island is in North Carolina, which has a different school schedule than up here in New York. When kids are headed back to school during the last week in August in North Carolina, rates for vacation rentals drop. And since our school doesn't start until the Wednesday after Labor Day, that last week of summer is a great time for us to find some deals.
For example, the house I just booked for $1,785 has rates during the peak of summer at almost $4,000! Also, it gives us something to look forward to as summer goes on. Instead of the kids dreading the end of summer and having to go back to school, they now have an awesome beach vacation to look forward to all summer.
Secret #3: Since we are renting an actual house with a full kitchen, we aren't gonna be eating our much at all. There's a supermarket about 5 minutes from the beach, and closer to the beach, there's a "shack" that sells fresh fish and shrimp. Our favorite meal of the week is always a "low country boil".
If you've never had this, you need to. It's basically a pot full of shrimp, crab legs, chunks of corn on the cob, red potatoes and whatever else you think belongs – boiled with Louisiana-style seasoning. It's SOOOO good. And again, I have to thank my friend Colleen for introducing us to the low country boil.
One more memory that I just HAVE to share… the last time we were at Topsail Island, we had the pleasure of witnessing something AWESOME. Our house in 2012 was situated right next to a sea turtle nest. And on one of the last nights we were there, they hatched! We watched as literally hundreds of baby sea turtles emerged from the sand and scuttled into the ocean. It was AMAZING. I wish I had pictures, but there was no flash photography allowed since the lights would distract them from heading towards the ocean.
So that's what we do for our summer vacations, and HomeAway and VRBO make it so easy for us. Did I mention that it's free to use?
Are you still looking to book a summer vacation? It's not too late! And you might be in luck! This summer, you could win a $5,000 vacation through the HomeAway Kidfluencers Contest!

There are two ways of thinking about the dollar store – either it is inexpensive junk or bargains galore. Depending on the type of shopper you are, you may avoid it because you think everything in there is poorly made or miniature size. Or you may it and buy everything you normally have on your shopping list assuming you are getting the best deal.
While there are most definitely items in the dollar stores that will break very quickly, there are also items that could be found cheaper elsewhere. I have pulled together the 24 best things to buy at the dollar store to stretch your budget and save you money.
- Cleaning supplies – Large containers of Comet, bottles of spray cleaner, and many others are a great buy.
- Rubber gloves – While you are cleaning, you might need gloves to protect your hands. These sell for $3 at the grocery store.
- Flower Pots – These normally sell for $5 or more at hardware stores.
- Kitchen Gadgets – You have to be careful of what you buy but I've been using the same set of funnels that I purchased for at a dollar store over 2 years ago. I saw name brand items that are sure to work without feeling flimsy.
- Organizational Items – You can find baskets, plastic shoe boxes and many other organizers to get the job done. Teachers will love these, too!
- Mailing Supplies – Manilla envelopes, padded envelopes and shipping labels!
- Frozen Fruit and Vegetables – The packages of these in my dollar store looked an awful lot like some name brands I know. I'm betting that $1 that they are the same thing but with a name change.
- Spices – You can't beat $1 for a bottle of spices, especially if it's one you use only at Thanksgiving like pumpkin pie spice. This way, when you toss it before the next holiday because it's old, there is no guilt for the money spent.
- Foil Pans – Taking food for a potluck or to someone's house? Buy your foil pans at the dollar store to save money and eliminate the need for returning containers.
- Hair Ties – These get lost so easily. Why spend $3 – 4 on a pack when you can get them for $1?
- Socks – Socks go missing frequently, buying them at the dollar store means you won't be upset when they disappear next week.
- Pregnancy Tests – If you are trying for a baby and taking pregnancy tests often, you can go through a small fortune waiting for that positive result. It might seem odd but a dollar store is the best place to buy them.
- School Supplies – There are definitely items to avoid (pencils, glue sticks, crayons) but there are great deals to be had here, too. Binders (name brand), posterboard, trifold boards for science fair projects (I was so shocked to see that!), and notecards are just a few great buys.
- Craft Items – Kids love doing crafts. Stock up on beads, feathers, glitter, pipe cleaners, stickers, foam shapes and even complete craft kits that will keep the kids entertained for hours.
- Pets – Pet dishes for dogs and cats as well as some name brand food and treats can be found at the dollar store. There are also leashes, collars and toys as well! Skip the pet store and save yourself money.
- Road Trip Snacks – Buy snacks for the ride. The dollar store is the best place to find those movie theater sized boxes of candy. Buy them before going to the theater as well!
- Coloring & Puzzle Books – Keep the kids (and yourself) occupied while you are traveling with coloring books, crossword puzzles, sudoku and more for just $1.
- Beach Toys -Cheaper than when you arrive in a beach town and you won't feel bad when one gets left behind.
Special Occasions/Seasonal:
- Holiday/Seasonal Decorations – Each season the store is stocked full of decorations and other items that can help you celebrate.
- Partyware – Plates, cups, napkins, utensils, decorations and so much more, whether it's a birthday party or a graduation party, they'll have plenty for you to decorate with.
- Weddings – If you are planning centerpieces, check out a dollar store. They have the exact items a friend of mine used on her tables- glass cylinders, glass beads, floating candles..
- Gift wrapping – Never spend more than $1 on a gift bag again! The same goes for bows, wrapping paper and even name brand tape.
- Greeting cards – Why spend $3 or more on a card that is usually thrown away?
- Balloons – Helium filled mylar balloons!
The next time you are shopping, make a trip to the dollar store. Take this list along with you so you are sure to score some great deals!
Is there anything on this list that you didn't know you could find at dollar stores? Are there items that I overlooked? What have you found to be great deals at the dollar stores?

Spring Festival custom 'twisted'
Publication Date : 17-02-2014
Some use the red envelope tradition as a networking tool to cultivate favours in return
The tradition and true meaning behind the giving of red envelopes to children during Spring Festival is being lost as people stuff them with ridiculously large amounts of cash or use them as a networking tool to cultivate favours in return, experts warn.
The tradition of handing out red envelopes spans 2,000 years to the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 25-220), aiming to protest children from a monster named Sui that brings misfortune.
It is normally given to children up to their 18th birthday or, in some cases, when they get their first job.
Chen Hewen, 50, owns a wedding company, and tried to dissuade friends and relatives from giving large sums of money to his 12-year-old daughter, who just started middle school.
Despite his efforts, the girl still managed to get more than 7,000 yuan ($1,150), double the amount of last year.
Her father kept his donation to 200 yuan, an amount he has stuck to for seven years.
"I think it's pointless to give my child that much money," he said.
"It's just a huge burden. I have to pay it back to them anyway, one way or another, but they have all sorts of excuses, like the donation has to rise every year, or my daughter just entered middle school. If I hadn't tried to dissuade them, she could have easily earned more than 10,000 yuan."
A Beijing News survey this month of 90 primary and middle school students found that the recipients got 438,000 yuan, an average of 4,867 yuan each.
The survey indicated that children whose parents worked in the government or business tended to get more money in the envelope and from more people.
"It used to be of no real monetary value at all. The red envelopes used to have specially designed coins. It was like that for hundreds of years," said Wu Xinfeng, a senior member of the Chinese Folklore Society.
"But now people use real money and lots of it, and they are using the envelopes in exchange for favors. The spirit behind the tradition is being twisted."
A Chinese language teacher at Xizhongjie Primary School in Beijing's Dongcheng district, who only gave her surname, Xu, has seen a huge growth in the use of the envelopes given to children in the 6-12 age group as well as the cash they contain.
"When I taught my first class three decades ago, there were barely any given. Later in the 1990s, my students were happy with 5 yuan or sometimes 10 yuan," said Xu. "At the turn of the century, the children might have 100 or 200 yuan, but never beyond 1,000 yuan."
However, starting from 2008, none of her students would come back to school from winter vacation with less than 1,000 yuan, Xu recalled. "Then, three years ago, I saw my first student with more than 10,000 yuan."
This year, Xu had a student claiming he received 50,000 yuan.
Of course, this does not apply to all students.
Xiang Pengyu, 13, always receives 2,000 yuan, no more, no less, since the first time he opened an envelope in third grade.
"With the envelope in my hands, I can feel my parents' love," Xiang said. "It's not about the money. It is the thought."
His father, Xiang Dong , 46, a Sichuan-born chiropractor at Beijing Massage Hospital, is careful about the 2,000 yuan limit.
"We are an ordinary family. With a reasonable amount in the envelope, my son will form a sense of what to expect and what not to. His mother and I will not let him suffer, but we will not over indulge him."
For that reason, Xiang's father refused all offers from people outside his family to give money to Xiang.
"I don't want to waste time and money sending it back and forth," he said.
As a result, Xiang only gets the lucky money from his parents and four relatives.

Joachim Menant
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Joachim Menant (16 April 1820–30 August 1899) was a French magistrate and orientalist.
He was born at Cherbourg. He studied law and became vice-president of the civil tribunal of Rouen in 1878, and a member of the appeals court three years later. But he became best known by his studies on cuneiform inscriptions.
Among his many works on Assyriology are:
- Recueil d'alphabets des écritures cunéiformes (1860)
- Exposé des éléments de la grammaire assyrienne (1868)
- Le Syllabaire assyrien (2 vols., 1869-1873)
- Les Langues perdues de la Perse et de l'Assyrie (2 vols., 1885–1886)
- Les Pierres gravées de la Haute-Asie (2 vols., 1883–1886)
He also collaborated with Julius Oppert. He was admitted to the Academy of Inscriptions in 1887, and died in Paris two years later.
His daughter Delphine (b. 1850) received a prize from the Académie française for her Les Parsis, histoire des communautés zoroastriennes de l'Inde (1898), and was sent in 1900–1901 to British India on a scientific mission, of which she published a report in 1903.

Okay, I'm not sure exactly what's going on here, but in the new issue of FHM magazine, Hilary Duff's breasts are looking a hell of a lot bigger than they usually do, and from the way she's looking at them, I think she agrees. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen Hilary Duff's boobs look that big.
So one has to ask the question: Did Hilary Duff get breast implants? It could just be the dress she's wearing, and a mighty powerful push-up bra, but whatever it is, it's definitely working. The real question, of course, is does it really matter?

This will frequently be the problem, but something else is also going on. I use two USB hard drives, both plugged in at the same time. Closing Explorer will always free up my 500GB, but almost never my 2TB - in fact I nearly always have to reboot to clear the larger drive, because it remains "in use" even with *all* windows closed other than the desktop. And there's nothing on the desktop requesting it.

Xi wants China to be 'cyber power': Xinhua
Published on Feb 27, 2014 10:40 PM
BEIJING (AFP) - Chinese President Xi Jinping has called for his country to become a "cyber power," state media reported on Thursday after he chaired a meeting of a special group focused on Internet security.
"Efforts should be made to build our country into a cyber power," he said, according to Xinhua, which cited a statement it said was released after the group's first meeting earlier in the day.
"We should be fully aware of the importance and urgency of Internet security and informatisation," he said.
Xi heads the "leading group," Xinhua said, with Premier Li Keqiang and Liu Yunshan - who along with Xi and Li is a member of the Communist Party's powerful politburo standing committee - the deputy heads.

HDMI glitching on new Plasma
1 Attachment(s)
I've just replaced a 1080p LCD monitor with a 1080p Plasma TV on my HTPC (F12/MythTV), and I'm getting glitching under certain conditions.
I have no problems during POST, bootsplash, or with the MythTV menu, but the display starts having issues when playing back video (Xv, OpenGL, and VDPAU). I get occasional horizontal lines, and large blocks of the current frame superimposed briefly in random locations. The glitches are accompanied with sound dropout (HDMI/LPCM on the same card).
If I pause playback I still get the glitches, so it's not a decoding/playback issue. After I stop playback and return to the menu, I may still see glitches for a few seconds.
I have the same issues with xine and xscreensaver, so it appears to be motion-related. None of the vsync options has any impact. Composite is disabled.
If I disconnect the new TV and connect the old LCD (with or without restarting X), it plays perfectly. When I switch back, it glitches again, so it doesn't appear EDID-related.
There are no problems with other sources on the TV (PS3/STB). Connecting via the PC input (D-SUB) also has no issues, but is limited to 1280x1024.
Fedora 12 (x64)
Kernel: 184.108.40.206-70
Tested with drivers 190.42 through 195.36.15
Re: HDMI glitching on new Plasma
I setup a Windows 7 dual-boot on the same hardware, and this doesn't exhibit any issues (with either stock or the latest drivers). With hardware compatibility issues eliminated, I'm left with either misconfiguration or a driver bug.
I forgot to post the model of the TV: Panasonic TC-P54VT25

The Cumberland Gap Panthers held their own against Williamsburg until late in the second half of Wednesday's scrimmage. CGHS went cold and the Yellow Jackets took advantage with a 16-0 run and went on to beat the Panthers 56-38 at Pineville' team camp.
"The kids are working hard and I'm playing a lot of kids right now. It's not about wins and losses right now, just trying to see who can help us and what type of defense we're going to be suited for," Panther coach Ernie Clawson said.
Cumberland Gap led for most of the first half until Williamsburg started hitting 3s and went int halftime up 20-18.
Panther point guard Adam Jenkins opened the second half with a runner to tie things up but Williamsburg to 3s from Skyler Griffith and Chase Lowrie and Andrew Griffith got free inside for a dunk that put the Jackets up 28-21.
Two baskets from Jenkins, a free throw from Jarrett Seagle and a basket from Hunter Bayless tied the game at 28 with 11:12 to play. Baskets from Chase Mize and Preston England put the Panthers back on top 32-31 with about 9:30 to go.
The lead was short-lived as Williamsburg responded with a 16-0 run to take control. Skyler Griffith started the spurt with a 3-pointer and Harlan County transfer Fred Massey took one steal in for a layup and then came away with another steal that led to a basket from Corey Shelton. Shelton would score four more points and Massey capped the run with layup for a 47-32 lead.
"Williamsburg is very big and any team that has a lot of size is going to give us some problems, because we're not very big," Clawson said. "But it was a two or three point game until they started knocking down some threes. It was just a bad matchup for us to go man-to-man. Williamsburg has got a good basketball team with just about everybody back, they ought to be pretty good this year."
Cumberland Gap got baskets down the stretch from Brady Hoskins, Bubba Lake and Nick Neverstitch as the final score wound up 56-38.
The Panthers will be taking part in the Tri-State team camp at LMU on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

In a very old comic strip, Snoopy was playing tennis with an unseen partner. They hit back and forth and it is apparent that Snoopy was working very hard to keep up. Finally, he is watching the ball come towards him, and he thinks, "I hope it goes out, I hope it goes out." It does. The last frame was him facing forward with a big smile and satisfied look on his face: "I hoped it out."

Monday was Memorial Day; a day when communities in the United States gather to honor and remember those veterans who served and gave their lives for our country.
I wrote my column for last week on Thursday night, May 14, tucked in my comfortable hotel room in Winona. I had just completed the first day of the Young Writers Conference and was enjoying some quiet time, reflecting on the lessons the young aspiring writers and I had shared. It had been a wonderful day celebrating my craft and I was anticipating another day on Friday, working with slightly older students.
Memorial Day is a recent, fond memory as June begins. Summer is here… and the first weekend of June kicks it off in style with many events.
By the time I gave my condolences to all the mourning doves, the morning had ended. Spider webs were abundant. If spiders are busy, it will be a fine day. At least that's how the old saying goes.
