The Indian hockey team sure knows how to make things difficult for itself. Even after the hooter had sounded in their third league match against Spain, for a good 20 seconds the Indian players and their fans had their hearts in their mouth as the video referral umpire watched the last second action in front of the Indian goal to judge whether or not to award a penalty corner to the Spaniards.
The action was played and replayed even on the giant screen before the umpire finally decided in favour of India and the match was deemed as over with the scoreline 1-1 and India had finally scored their first point.
Spanish goalkeeper, Santi Freixa, who had a couple of good shots at the goal, joked at the Press Conference, when asked about India's failure at closing stages. "We hoped they would give us chance, but they did."
A relieved Indian coach Terry Walsh, said, "We finally have a point. And the good thing is we held on in the closing stages where we made mistakes before."
It was once again a tale of missed chances, back by some amazing goalkeeping and often relying on luck. For the third match in a row, PR Sreejesh played the role of Rock of Gibraltar. But for him, India may well have been staring at a third successive defeat. The only goal he conceded came after an unbelievable three saves in quick succession before Roc Oliva finally found the target and the equaliser.
India went into the lead through a penalty stroke conversion by Rupinder Pal after Mandeep Singh was tripped by Roc inside the striking circle in the 28th minute. Rupinder made no mistake placing the ball to the left of Spanish goalkeeper, Quico Cortes.
But India did not have much time to savour that lead, as Spain struck back in 34th minute – that dreaded zone of last two minutes before half-time. After Santi Ferixa, twice, and Eduard Tuabu had a shot at the goal which Sreejesh saved, Oliva hit home fourth rebound with a stinger as Sreejesh was stranded on the side.
Towards the end, Dharmvir Singh seemed to have missed a good chance after being set up very well by SV Sunil in the 64th. Two minutes later another fine cross by Sunil went abegging.
Of India's three penalty corners, one of them was wasted as Sardar messed up his push, while Spaniards failed to convert any of their four penalty corner awards.
Yet, Spain had no less than 11 shots at the goal, while the Indians were found struggling to take a shot or lost the ball while trying to find their man inside the circle. Still, they did have eight shots.
"It was a good game and we had our chance, but we did not take them," said Walsh. On another query on penalty corners, he added, "We have not go so many and that's measure of how good rival defenders have been. But we have also not converted them (whatever we have got). Sure, that's a worry, but remember as I said before this is a young team."
On the referral which went to the video umpire even as the final hooter went off, Walsh said, "Spain took a chance and they have every right to, for that's the way the game has become." But he added, "But I had no doubts that there was nothing wrong once I saw the video replay on he screen."
Sardar once again gushed about Sreejesh, as he said, "He has been very good and he has been solid. He had another superb game. I am sure he will continue that way. His shoulder (which need some attention during the first half after a save) is fine and he is alright."

The dedication of the Greater Mount Airy Area Habitat for Humanity's 41st home Saturday was more about building foundations for life than the tangible foundation the Cooke family's new home was built on.
Executive Director Neil Cothren said the beautiful weather for the dedication was like the build itself, which went well from the beginning. He said the process began for the family of David and Amanda Cooke in October of 2012. He praised the family for amassing 545 sweat equity hours on their home as well as other partner families.
(By comparison, a total of 2,213 volunteer hours were used to complete the new home, which was the second modular home built in partnership with Surry County Schools and Surry Community College at North Surry.)
"A lot of folks had parts to play and pieces to put together in order for this to happen," Cothren said as he praised the cooperation of the Habitat Board, affiliate and ReStore staffers, volunteers, Surry Community and Surry County schools.
Board of Directors member Bryant Brantley reminded those present the mission of Habitat is to build homes, communities and hope and used examples from the Bible of the importance of neighbors. He told the group one 80-year-old volunteer from the neighborhood was routinely seen 16 feet off the ground on a ladder helping with the new home.
He drew from the Gospel of Luke and how people would hear Jesus' words and not do what he asked. Brantley reminded them the two greatest laws of God to keep were the love the Lord and to love neighbors and to answer Jesus' call to even love one's enemies.
"If we just look at the 10 Commandments we know we can't keep them. Hope is in Christ," said Brantley. "On Christ the solid rock I stand. All else is shifting sand. God's love of us over all else, seen through Christ should make us to keep the laws and love our enemies."
County Commissioner and Habitat board member Larry Phillips was also on hand to welcome the family to the neighborhood.
"You are now going to be a tax payer," Phillips said. "On behalf of the Board of Commissioners we wish you God's blessings. You ask any homeowner and they will tell you it is the values and not the valuables that matter in a home. No one has given you anything here. You have earned your home."
Surry County Schools Director of Secondary Education Jill Reinhardt told the group she was proud to be there to represent the system and the ten young men who graduated from high school and earned credit on the house build.
"The partnership for this runs deep between Surry County Schools, Surry Community College and Habitat," Reinhardt said. "I can't tell you every nail those young men put into this house was put in with love but our love for them to learn was. We are proud Surry County Schools are teaching students the gift of giving back."
She said 15 more students from across the county are ready to participate in a third home build at North Surry. Homeowner Amanda Cooke thanked the volunteers for their hard work on "the most beautiful home in Surry County." The family was presented a family Bible and a gift basket after the handing over of the keys by Habitat Construction Manager Greg Russo.
Amanda and David Cooke have two children, 9-year-old Eli and 5-year-old Kylie. The family's former home was an older one with electrical issues, was poorly insulated and contained mold from water leaks. The couple said it is a relief to be able to go to sleep at night now in the new home.

La Plume - The Linder Gallery at Keystone College will present an exhibition of paintings and drawings by California-based artist Kellesimone Waits from March 24 through April 28 on the campus in La Plume.
The exhibition Kellesimone Waits: Antithesis features recent and earlier works that explore the artist's unique and adventurous life through expressive, figurative imagery. A reception for the artist will be held on Sunday, March 24, from 4-6 p.m. in the Gallery, and the public is invited. Also, Kellesimone Waits will speak about her artwork on Monday, March 25, at 9:45 a.m. in Brooks Theatre at Keystone College. The presentation is open to the public.
Kellesimone Waits' life has been an anthology of experiences that forms the narrative of her work. She is a hoarder of conscious and subconscious images from a life in motion that began in Los Angeles in the 1980s. After extensive touring, jungle life in the Amazon, and a long-term stint at Manhattan's iconic Chelsea Hotel, Kellesimone has settled (for now) in Northern California, where she attended California College of the Arts and Mills College. Strong forces at play in her work are an investigation of society's influence on her subjects and herself alike, as well as an exploration of the psychological drives behind the artist and her subjects. As a result, the works are a blend of myths, dreams, and fairy tales, all within a survey of reality.
Kellesimone's artwork has been exhibited in group and one-person exhibitions internationally. Her solo exhibits include shows at Fuse Gallery in Manhattan, Perihelion Arts in Phoenix, and Frank Pictures Gallery and Known Gallery in Los Angeles. In 2010 she was a featured artist in the Draw Tour exhibit held at the Museo de la Ciudad de Mexico, in Mexico City. Her work has also been exhibited during Art Basel in Miami at Aqua10.
"I'm so happy to be able to present this exhibition of Kellesimone's artwork at Keystone College," said Drake Gómez, director of exhibitions. "She's an emerging talent on both coasts and has such a distinctive background, yet I think she's someone to whom our students will really be able to relate. I think her work will speak to them on a very direct level."

It's definitely a character that will make fans of TOS excited. Think along the lines of Harry Mudd or Trelane or Gary Mitchell or the Talosians or the Horta. Actually it's one of those that I named.
Say it were one of two from the pictured choices; Mudd or Trelane. Which do you get more excited about?
Harry Mudd.
I figure it would be a new take / re-imaging of him.
So instead of a fat jolly con man....he would be a dark, saddistic, terrorist and an arms dealer for any world that would pay the right price...even if it was to a civiliazation that was pre-warp and shouldnt have futuristic weapons, i.e. how countdown is playing out
Have they actually shown Harry in the comics yet.
I know about his daughter, just wondered if He's shown up yet.
As a con man, it would be just like him to assume another name to fool the authorities.
Doesn't seem as far fetched as Khan at this point either.
Was Harry considered to be 'British English' in TOS???
I must go out in2 space again for the call of adventure cries. With a steady hand & robust crew I'll take her forth with pride.
I must go out in2 space again to a vagabond Captains life. Where comets play & galaxies sway like whirlwinds in the night.

|Giants take RB Michael Cox with final draft pick
|Written by Admin
|Saturday, 27 April 2013 14:42
A transfer from Michigan, Cox started 12 games for the Minutemen, gained 715 yards and scoring five touchdowns.
The pick is another need for New York, which released starting running back Ahmad Bradshaw after missing the playoffs with a 9-7 record. David Wilson, last year's first-round draft pick, is the current starter on the depth chart backed by up by Andre Brown, who broke a non-weight-bearing bone in his leg.
The Giants finished the draft taking two offensive linemen, two defensive linemen, a running back and a safety, all needs. The biggest surprise was their first pick on Saturday, Syracuse quarterback Ryan Nassib.

What are your fitness goals for 2013?
ARE you tired of looking at yourself in the mirror and seeing an image that does not reflect who you are? Have you outgrown all your jeans? Does playing with your kids or grandkids leave you winded? Are you more on focused on putting on your expensive make up, artificial eyebrows or worried about your eye bags? Are your butt and breasts no longer as firm? It's time to set and achieve your goals on shaping up. Make them your motivation as you start the new year.
Reasons to get fit
"I want to be able to keep up with my kids and grand kids." "I want to look good in my favorite clothes." I'm unhappy with all the weight I've put on." "I want to lower my blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar." I need to look good for a wedding, reunion, or other big events." These are some of the practical reasons why people, including my clients, want to get fit. Regular exercise can help one achieve his or her fitness goals. The best part is, exercise has nothing but good side effects.
Looking in the mirror
When you look at yourself in the mirror, what do you want to see? Most of my clients say they want to see their old selves and they want to get back the self confidence that they lost after they gained weight. They want toned muscles, cheekbones that do not like that of Santa Claus'. I tell them to first ask themselves: What has changed? Was your old self thinner? Happier? More energetic? I always tell them that the secret to staying younger is to feel younger. Chronological age is different than one's body age.
The benefits of exercise
If all the health benefits of exercise were contained in a pill, pharmacies will sold out in a day. By being active everyday for less time than it takes to watch a TV show, you can:
• Lose weight. Even a mild exercise burns three times the number of calories used by sitting on the sofa working the remote. You must burn 3,500 calories to lose a pound. That's 500 calories a day to lose a pound per week (or 250 calories burned if you eat 250 fewer calories , which is easy to do if you follow a diet plan.) The amount of weight you lose depends on the number of calories you burn. Remember: Weight loss is calories in versus calories out.
• Lower blood pressure. Physical activity is inversely related to the progresssive build-up of plaque in your carotid arteries (the all important ones that deliver blood to your brain). Studies show that even people who just do golf or gardening on the weekends have clearer arteries than those who do nothing.
• Beat diabetes. Researchers found that regular
exercise improves blood sugar metabolism by almost 25 percent. A single exercise improves blood sugar metabolism immediately.
• Lower cholesterol. It's no secret that losing weight helps out bad cholesterol levels. But exercise by itself with or without weight loss is still very effective. A study by researchers from Duke University revealed that exercise changes the structure of the protein particles that carry cholesterol making it harder for them to damage the arteries and set the stage for heart disease.
• Feel happier. A growing body of research confirms the blues-beating power of exercise. Research shows exercise works as well as anti-depressant drugs for improving well being—a single walk around the neighborhood can boost the mood of someone, who's clinically depressed.
• Bank more beats. The average inactive person's heart beats 70 to 75 times per minute more than a beat per second. A fit person's heart is so strong that it can squeeze out about 25 percent more blood with every beat so it only needs to pump about 50 times per minute. That adds up to 36,000 fewer beats every single day or 13 million fewer beats a year.
What great benefit our body will have if only we include exercise in our lifestyle.

The majority of this week's series pit a strong team against a weak team in Major League Baseball. There aren't as many high quality battles as normal, but that doesn't mean there isn't money to be made. This is also the time of the year where bettors need to start handicapping which teams are going to relish the spoiler role and which teams are ready for their season to be over.
BangtheBook wants to give you more information to make your baseball bets winning ones this year. We will be posting this MLB trends article two times each week. Expect this article on Monday's and Thursday's of each week. This article will highlight trends to consider for this week's series'.
-One of the best matchups this week is in Pittsburgh where the Cardinals take on the Pirates in a key battle. The Pirates are fighting for a Wild Card spot and the Cardinals are trying to catch up to the Brewers in the NL Central race. The Cardinals are 8-3 in their last 11 games. Pittsburgh is 20-8 in their last 28 home games. The Cardinals are 5-12 in their last 17 games in Pittsburgh.
-Boston has been the streakiest team in baseball this year. The Red Sox are in the midst of another ugly slump right now. They have lost eight games in a row. The Red Sox are 2-10 in their last 12 vs. the AL East. The Red Sox are 1-10 in their last 11 games vs. the Blue Jays. Toronto is 5-1 in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a losing road record.
-Oakland has slipped behind Los Angeles in the AL West. The Athletics have cooled off a lot of late. They get a chance to heat back up in Houston this week. Oakland is 28-10 in their last 38 games against the Astros. The Astros are 51-140 in their last 191 games vs. a team with a winning record.
-The hottest team in the National League is the Washington Nationals. The Nationals are 17-5 in their last 22 games. They host Philadelphia this week. Cole Hamels starts game one of this series on Tuesday for the Phillies. The Phillies are 21-8 in his last 29 starts vs. the Nationals. Overall, the Phillies are just 3-7 in their last 10 vs. the Nationals.

Natives, Pilgrims, and Puritans The Native Americans The descendants of the original inhabitants of North America and South America before the arrival of white settlers from Europe, also called Indians or American Indians. The term Native American is sometimes preferred over Indian because the latter is a misnomer that originated with Columbus, who mistook the inhabitants of America for the people of India. Both terms, however, are accepted. The Pilgrims A group of English Puritans, persecuted in their own country, who emigrated to America. The first group arrived on the Mayflower in 1620. They landed at Plymouth Rock, in what is now Massachusetts, and established the Plymouth Colony, with the Mayflower Compact as their constitution. Plymouth Rock, Massachusetts HANCEMEN pilgrim first thanksgivi The Puritans 1600's or 17th Century Puritans or "The Pilgrims" and Early Colonists They arrived from Holland and England to escape religious persecution and to explore the new frontier. Settled Primarily in New England and the North. Puritans secular and religious lives were inseperable. Puritans arrived incredibly educated. They wanted education to understand and execute God's will as they established their colonies throughout New England. . Cont… The Puritan definition of good writing was that which brought home a full awareness of the importance of worshipping God and of the spiritual dangers that the soul faced on Earth. Puritan style varied enormously -- from complex metaphysical poetry to homely journals and crushingly pedantic religious history. Whatever the style or genre, certain themes remained constant. Life was seen as a test; failure led to eternal damnation and hellfire, and success to heavenly bliss. This world was an arena of constant battle between the forces of God and the forces of Satan, a formidable enemy with many disguises. Many Puritans excitedly awaited the "millennium," when Jesus would return to Earth, end human misery, and inaugurate 1,000 years of peace and prosperity. Cont… Scholars have long pointed out the link between Puritanism and capitalism: Both rest on ambition, hard work, and an intense striving for success. Although individual Puritans could not know, in strict theological terms, whether they were "saved" and among the elect who would go to heaven, Puritans tended to feel that earthly success was a sign of election. Wealth and status were sought not only for themselves, but as welcome reassurances of spiritual health and promises of eternal life. Cont… The Puritans interpreted all things and events as symbols with deeper spiritual meanings, and felt that in advancing their own profit and their community's well-being, they were also furthering God's plans. They did not draw lines of distinction between the secular and religious spheres: All of life was an expression of the divine will. To Puritans, the colonies were God's Kingdom on Earth and they interpreted the Bible Literally. And again… Puritans wanted to "purify" the Church of England by eliminating traces of its origins in the Roman Catholic Church. In addition, they urged a strict moral code and placed a high value on hard work. After the execution of King Charles I in 1649, they controlled the new government, the Commonwealth.

At 86, battle-hardy Lal Krishna Advani is gearing up for yet another month-long battle in Gandhinagar. The reluctant candidate will file his nomination papers on Saturday, inaugurate his poll office near Rajpath Club and address a couple of rallies — all in a day's work. The Bharatiya Janata Party patriarch is seeking re-election from the state capital for the fifth straight time!
Advani's 2004 lead of 2.17 lakh halved to 1.21 lakh votes in 2009. However, in the 2012 assembly election, this lead on seven assembly seats or segments of the Gandhinagar Lok Sabha constituency more than doubled to 2.82 lakh votes. BJP has held this seat for 25 years with Advani having represented it for four terms since 1998 and once earlier in 1991-96.
By any stretch of imagination, this seat is among the safest for the BJP and if it loses, it would be amongst the biggest upsets in the country. Yet it has a very reluctant MP. In fact, the BJP patriarch has been an uncomfortable patron here for a long time now. A close look at the seat in the backdrop of the ego battle between Narendra Modi and Advani reveals why the latter is so skeptical.
Of the seven assembly segments in Gandhinagar, four are part of Ahmedabad city — Ghatlodia, Vejalpur, Naranpura and Sabarmati — all won by BJP, but Modi loyalists. Ghatlodia MLA Anandi Patel is revenue minister in Modi's Cabinet and touted to be the next chief minister in the event of Modi's ascent to Delhi. Naranpura MLA is Modi's right-hand man Amit Shah, who was once considered for the Gandhinagar Lok Sabha candidature. Vejalpur MLA is ambitious newbie Kishor Chauhan with RSS background and Sabarmati MLA Arvind Dalal had also been handpicked by Modi in 2012.
BJP won Gandhinagar North by a slim margin. Congress bagged Kalol and the Nano town of Sanand. In 2011, the saffron party lost the Gandhinagar Municipal Corporation election, whose main electorate consisted of state government employees, despite it being an urban Patel-dominated demography perceived favourable to the BJP.
The seat has been in such limelight thanks to the BJP politicking, that issues concerning the constituents somehow fall by the wayside. For all the noise made by Advani loyalist Harin Pathak about citizens needing a local candidate they can go to for help, well, Advani is not a local.
Especially in the last term, he spent very little time in his constituency, largely owing to strained relations with Modi wherein his every visit to his constituency attracted more attention than he could handle.
Tremors began in 2009 itself when Advani's family had to camp in the constituency during elections, failing support from local BJP workers. Congress's Kirit Patel and Aam Aadmi Party's Rituraj Mehta, on the other hand, are as local as a candidate can get. Resident of Ghatlodia, the Congress veteran is a Leuva Patel and a local developer. Originally from Visnagar, Patel migrated to the Congress with Shankersinh Vaghela and continues to be in tune with him.
"Ghatlodia is my karmabhoomi. I am 100% assured of victory. People are voting for Advani since five terms, but he is never available to solve their problems. He is seen only on TV or posed photographs in newspapers," said Patel. "Gandhinagar needs industries. There is a problem of employment for the youth. The rural areas have an issue of drinking water. Despite all this, Advani's MPLAD funds are relapsing. What development are they talking about?" he thundered.
A pragmatic Congress source from the region said Patel will reduce Advani's lead substantially, primarily because it is a "Patel-dominated seat" and secondly, voters are genuinely frustrated by Advani's absences. Meanwhile, a third dimension is also emerging. AAP's 47-year-old candidate Mehta is a suave real estate developer who has some reckoning in the urban sections. Though a political novice himself, BJP and Congress strategists feel Mehta can dent BJP votes in the four urban segments because of the AAP brand. Mehta was not reachable for comment.
Facts & Figures
LK Advani started his career as RSS secretary in Karachi in 1947 when India achieved Independence. He was nominated to the Rajya Sabha in 1970.
In 2012 Assembly polls, Congress won the Kalol seat with a wafer thin margin of 343 votes
Gandhinagar has a total of 1769 polling stations in the constituency
It has a total of 16.85 lakh voters – 8.75 lakh males, 8.09 lakh women, and 15 others
Rituraj Mehta, the 47-year-old AAP candidate, claims to be a nature lover, who planted and maintained 25,000 trees in 2013. He claims to have saved 7,000 trees from being chopped for a highway widening project through a 'movement of RTI and PIL'.

Many people observe Memorial Day by visiting grave sites, cemeteries and memorials and placing flowers, flags and other tributes in honor of deceased loved ones. Other activities centered around the holiday include participating in or watching Memorial Day parades and going to family picnics and other gatherings.
U.S. Federal holidays that are always on a Monday include Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Washington's Birthday, Memorial Day, Labor Day and Columbus Day. Many federal offices close, allowing for a three-day weekend to celebrate the holiday. Outside of the federal government, the choice to observe any federal holiday is left up to individual states and private companies.
Memorial Day is specifically for remembering those who have fallen in battle in service of the United States. Veterans Day honors all Americans who have served in the military, both living and deceased.

The plant hormone auxin transcriptionally activates Aux/IAA genes. Auxin plays an important role in regulating fruit growth and ripening of strawberry and Aux/IAA genes have been extensively studied in Arabidopsis, rice and tomato, but little information is available on strawberry fruit. In the present work, two full-length of early auxin-responsive Aux/IAA genes, termed FaAux/IAA1 and FaAux/IAA2 respectively, were isolated and characterized from strawberry fruit. Moreover, the expression profiles of two FaAux/IAA genes during fruit development, and the effect of naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) on their expressions of fruits at two different developmental stages were also investigated. The results showed that the levels of FaAux/IAA1 and FaAux/IAA2 transcripts were very high at early stage of fruit development, and decreased sharply at ripening stage (after white stage). In addition, NAA applied at the stage of large green and white fruit obviously increased the accumulations of FaAux/IAA1 and FaAux/IAA2 transcripts. These data suggested that the expressions of both FaAux/IAA1 and FaAux/IAA2 genes were likely to be involved in early fruit development, and the enhancement of FaAux/IAAs transcripts might be attributed at least or partially to auxin-induced fruit growth and delayed fruit ripening of strawberry.

UNTIL RECENTLY, GOSSIP COLUMNISTS WERE dismissed as all hat and no tattle—journalistic washerwomen who picked through the nation's dirty laundry with little concern for the consequences, let alone the truth. They trafficked in fluff, not substance; certainly not news. Matt Drudge changed all that. Say what you will about the Walter Winchell of cyberspace, there is no disputing that he broke the Monica Lewinsky story and revealed key details before anyone else did, including the existence of a now-famous stained dress. Make way for the New New Journalism.
As the author of Texas Monthly's Low Talk column, I got a renewed sense of purpose from watching Drudge trump his critics—and it made me think about life in the gossip trenches. What's it like today, and how has it changed? Do the war stories still resonate? To find out, I convened an on-the-record gathering of the state's preeminent practitioners: the doyenne of dirt, Maxine Mesinger of the Houston Chronicle, who has been writing her column for some forty years; Alan Peppard of the Dallas Morning News and Susan Yerkes of the San Antonio Express-News, each with more than ten years in the biz; and the amicably belligerent Michael Corcoran of the Austin American-Statesman, with barely a year on the job the relative newcomer of the group. We met for lunch on a Friday afternoon in November at Anthony's restaurant in Houston. The main dish was, of course, dish.
Peppard: Everybody asks, "What column do you write?" When I started, it was the social column, but that just doesn't apply anymore, because now we live in the age of celebrity, and there are very few people who care about what the debutantes are doing. So I call it celebrity, society, famous people, rich people, boldfaced names. But it doesn't always work. Prince Edward was at a party in Dallas, and he asked me what I did. I told him that I write a society column. And he looked me right in the eye and said, "You mean gossip column." He was very stern about it.
Mesinger: I call myself a gossip columnist.
Corcoran: I do a lot of cold calling, so I'll say I'm a personality columnist or gossip columnist or celebrity columnist—whatever would stroke who I'm talking to. Like, I won't call up Matthew McConaughey and say I'm a gossip columnist. I'll say I'm a personality columnist or that I write an Austin column. You have to present yourself as somebody they want to talk to, because "gossip" is kind of a dirty word.
Yerkes: "Gossip" may be a bad word, but the word "buzz" is extremely popular these days. The idea is that this is something that people are talking about, and it may not be a person—it may be a phenomenon. I sometimes say I am a sociopolitical gossip columnist, because it's what comes up in conversations. And a lot of times the things that come up in conversations are not really mentioned in the paper because they're too small for a story, but they're what everybody's talking about.
Peppard: People tell me regularly, "You know, I just scan your column and look for names of people. If there are people I know, I read it, and if there aren't, I don't." It's rather simple: Give them lots of that boldfaced type, because that keeps their eyes on the page. I find when I'm going on for four or five paragraphs and I haven't mentioned anybody's name, the story is too involved.
Corcoran: I like to throw in names that will stop a person. Like, you know, Madonna. People are scanning the column and they see Madonna's name, and they go, "Wait." Sometimes my editors will even run a mug shot of a person I've just thrown in there.
Yerkes: I kind of try sometimes to bring them in with what's topical, like the fact that Ken Starr was sitting on a briefcase during his entire testimony to make himself look taller. Who knew that? [ Editor's Note: Apparently, not the Express-News, which later ran a correction; it was Clinton lawyer David Kendall on the briefcase.]
Mesinger: I kept looking at Starr and thinking there was something terrible that he did. I think he sucks.
Mesinger: You know, I don't have to make calls much anymore. I'm just flooded with calls. I've done this for forty years. They know the writer, and they know the work. So when entertainment people come to town, 99 percent of the time I'm the one who gets the call.
Peppard: It can be easy to get lazy because, like Maxine says, after you amass a certain number of columns, people know who you are. I write four columns a week, so the items do come to me. But I think it's the beginning of the end of writing anything interesting when you just let them come to you.
Yerkes: And you know, going outside your city, sometimes you end up with great items. I was in New Orleans a couple of weeks ago at a conference, and after the gala, I started talking to this big cancer guy. He ended up going out with a couple of us on Bourbon Street. At about 2 a.m., as we're walking along, I said, "You know, we've got a big breast cancer institute in San Antonio." He said, "Well, you did." And I said, "What do you mean?" "Baylor just hired that whole crew away from you. I heard they signed the deal last week." So I called Baylor when I got back home, and apparently the medical community were the only ones who knew.
Peppard: The things you learn on Bourbon Street.
Yerkes: That ended up being a front-page story the day after I wrote it, and it's because I went out on Bourbon Street with some guy. Part of it is just being able to be in those places with people, and they relax and start telling you stuff.

Really great room
May 19, 2015
I recently stayed at Staybridge Suites May 7th. I was participating in the Disneyland 5K on Friday morning. My wake up call was prompt and I was off to the race in good time. After the race I returned to the hotel and had breakfast. The choices were good and I enjoyed my eggs and toast. Fresh fruit was also available. I spent the rest of the morning in my room just relaxing and enjoying the comfortable bed and TV. Will definitely stay here again.
Welcoming and comfortable
May 16, 2015
This was the first time our family stayed at this hotel. We had such a great time, that we have booked again for the summer. All of the staff were professional, friendly and welcoming. Any requests that we had (extra blankets etc) were handled immediately. There were some upgrades being done, but we didn't find them disruptive. Our room was the perfect size, and we were grateful to have a kitchen with a large fridge. It saves a lot of money on vacation to have a kitchen. The complimentary buffet breakfast and social (Tues to Thurs) were clean, and there was a nice variety. We would especially like to thank Kym for being extra helpful and kind to our family. It was nice to see the Manager, Kym interacting with her staff and customers in a friendly and welcoming manner. Thank you Kym. We look forward to seeing you in the summer.
Most comfortable beds ever!!!
May 15, 2015
This hotel has it all for an affordable price. Loved the beds and the suites. Friendly staff. Excellent full free breakfast. Only 6 minutes from Disneyland and 15 from John Wayne Airport. They have a Shuttle that runs every 20 minutes to Disneyland. We didn't use the pool or Jacuzzi but it looked nice and so did the Fitness Room. We had our grand daughter with us, so it was nice to be able to put her to bed in the bedroom suite, while we stayed up in the living room/kitchen area. We will book this hotel again!
very clean facility
May 13, 2015
I enjoyed my stay it was very clean. Only problem was that hot tub did not work for two days which I needed for medical reasons.

Proposed by the present invention is (a) a method, (b) structure for implementing the method, and (c) a resulting data structure that comes from implementation of the method, relating to introducing various modifications into the image file directory data contents in an otherwise conventional TIFF multi-page document data structure.

12. Full-function direct TIFF printing operative for a selected collection of plural print options comprising
selecting from that collection a print option having a defined operating path with regard to a multi-page print job,
establishing a TIFF file relative to that job, and
within the architecture of that TIFF file, and without altering image data information, per se, specially and freely constructing the respective page Image File Directories, solely with regard to at least one of (a) the operative page-order pointers and (b) the page-orientation tags associated therein and therewith, to create a directly readable print-performance implementation from a printer which will cause printing in a manner following the defined operating path.
13. A print-image-information-independent system for performing driverless and selectively multi-print-option printing of pages from a plural-page TIFF file, where such multi-print-option printing involves page printing in a manner that differs from the normal TIFF page-printing hierarchy, which normal hierarchy involves the printing of pages in unbroken, regular serial, page-number order, said system comprising
structure for creating a multi-page TIFF file including, as appropriate, Image File Directory (IFD) page-order, and/or page-orientation, tag information which is effective to guide the implementation of printing from the file, and
IFD data-manipulation structure operatively connected to said file-creating structure, and operable selectively to modify solely at least one of (a) the page-order architecture, and (b) the page-orientation information, in IFD data in the file so as to promote the driverless printing implementation of a selected printing option.
This invention relates to the printing of multi-page documents from a TIFF file, and specifically to the driverless printing of such documents, in a manner which also enables the convenient implementation and performance of a multiplicity of conventional print options. In particular, the invention features methodology, related apparatus, and a TIFF-file data structure which involve modifications in the Image File Directory (IFD) portion(s) of that data structure.
IFD data in a TIFF file is associated with each page-specific (image) data unit, and such IFD data is normally organized to establish regular, serial-order sequential printing of pages. The IFD data includes operational path pointers for directing this normal activity.
As will be seen, the invention provides an easy and elegant way to utilize the internal structure of a TIFF file per se to enable driverless, rasterization-free, multi-option-capability, TIFF-file printing.
According to a preferred manner of practicing the invention, what is proposed is that modifications be appropriately made in what would otherwise be a conventional TIFF-file data structure to alter, in various ways, the page-order and/or page-orientation contents only of IFD data contained in that data structure. Associated image data, per se is not altered. Such page-order and/or page-orientation modifications can readily enable rasterization-free, driverless implementation of multi-page-printing, with full access to a wide range of conventional print options, such as document page splitting, page-specific printing with respect to certain selected pages, face-down and face-up printing where desired, multi-copy per-page printing of selected pages from a file, collated multi-page printing, uncollated multi-page printing, and many others.
The IFD changes which are made in accordance with practice of this invention relate only to page-order and/or page-orientation tag changes include, in general terms, (a) additions, (b) subtractions, and (c) internal modifications, as by the rewriting of pointers.
The methodology of the invention can be described, from a general point of view, as a driverless method for altering, selectively, and solely, the hierarchy (i.e., the order) of page printing from a multi-page TIFF file, and/or the page-orientation tag data, which altering includes the steps of intercepting such a TIFF file upstream from a printer, and then appropriately changing just the page-order tags and/or the page-orientation tags of IFD data present in that file so as to implement, in a driverless manner, a selected print option which differentiates from normal TIFF-file printing. Another way of viewing the methodology of the invention is that it involves creating a multi-page TIFF file for printing, including creating only modified-from-standard IFD page-order and/or page-orientation data in the file. Such modified data includes information that directs the operation of page printing in accordance with the selected print option.
Structure proposed in accordance with the present invention is that which is capable of implementing the methodology just expressed above, and the invention also features unique structure in the revised IFD page-order and/or page-orientation data per se.
These and other objects and advantages which are attained by the invention will become more fully apparent as the description that now follow is read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Turning now to the drawings, as this description moves through each of the nine drawing figures herein, the elegance, simplicity, and versatility of the present invention should become very apparent with respect to its ability to accommodate rasterization-free, driverless, multi-option-selectability of print options with respect to the carrying out of multi-page TIFF-file print jobs. Each of these drawing figures, which is largely self-explainatory, illustrates one or more practices and embodiments of the present invention. The entire collection of drawing figures, however, is not exhaustively illustrative of all possible print options which can be implemented in accordance with practice of this invention. How to invoke such other options in accordance with this invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the several specific illustrations presented herein. In each of
With this understood, and turning attention first of all to
With attention directed to
This embodiment of the invention addresses the issue of printing a multiple-page TIFF file to firmware (i.e. a structural arrangement) that nominally supports only a single-page TIFF file. To print multiple pages, a printing device typically constructs a separate print job on a per-page basis. This print job may be constructed by, for example, a document-creating application, some background process, a printer driver, a spooler, a print processor, or a print assistant that is inserted somewhere in the relevant print-data stream.
The invention approaches this task by not creating a separate physical spool file. Instead, TIFF data is directly written to the port manager for the specified printing device, or devices, and the data is modified in memory in an appropriate manner. In accordance with the invention, printing of multiple pages on what is otherwise a single-page TIFF reader is accomplished by modifying and altering the IFD page-order pointer which is directed to the first IFD in the file. The IFD describes the contents and locations of an image (i.e. a page); each page in the file has a separate IFD; and each IFD is sequentially linked to the next IFD in the file.
Referring to
In implementing this version/embodiment of the present invention, the TIFF reader employed in the particular printing device or devices is (are) presumed to be capable of supporting multiple-page TIFF formats. In a case where the employed TIFF reader is one which supports only single-page TIFF formats, the process illustrated in
The printing of selected pages in a document-splitting practice according to the invention is accomplished, as an illustration, by changing the value of the first IFD offset to the IFD offset of the first page in the corresponding page sequence which is to be printed, and by changing the value of the IFD offset of the last page in the corresponding page sequence. For example, on a ten-page document which is to be split into page sequences 1–5, inclusive, and 6–10, inclusive, the TIFF for the first sequence would be sent to a printer with the next IFD offset of the fifth page image changed to zero in memory to indicate the last page. The second sequence would be sent to the printer with the first IFD offset changed to the IFD offset of the sixth page image in memory to indicate the first page.
This just-described approach is pictured for the splitting of a five-page TIFF file document into two sequences, with one including pages 1–3, inclusive, and the second including pages 4 and 5.
An appropriate algorithm to accomplish this in accordance with the invention is set forth below in Table II
The printing of so-called page sequences is accomplished principally by manipulating one or more IFD offsets corresponding to the pages in the non-consecutive sequence. For example, this is accomplished by changing the value of the first IFD offset to the IFD of the first page in the non-consecutive page sequence, and by changing the next IFD offset of this page to the IFD offset of the next page in the non-consecutive sequence, and so forth. The next IFD offset of the last page in the non-consecutive page sequence is set to zero (null) to indicate the end of the sequence. For example, the non-consecutive page sequence 1–2, inclusive, and 4 out of a five-page document would be sent to the TIFF reader in the printing device with the IFD offset of the second page changed to the IFD offset of the fourth page, and the IFD offset of the fourth page changed to zero (null) to indicate the end of the non-consecutive selected sequence. Table III immediately below illustrates the algorithm appropriate for this behavior of what is shown in
Face-down printing is, of course, a normal order print sequence for handling by a conventional TIFF file. Here, little if any IFD manipulation is required unless there is, in addition, some further print option to be implemented which, while generally calling for a normal order arrangement of printing, nevertheless introduces some additional requirement that invokes the need to change IFD data in some fashion. Face-up printing, however, requires a specifically related change in IFD data content.
To accomplish face-up, reverse-order printing according to the invention, all of the IFD offsets normally presented in the standard TIFF file data format are reversed, in order to assure that images are printed in a manner which will result in face-up collation. In reverse-order, face-up printing, the numeric last page in the file is printed first, the next to last numbered page is printed second, the third from last page is printed third, etc. A completed job results in the presentation to the user of a printed document which reads, from top to bottom, first-to-last page.
Printing a face-up collated page sequence in accordance with the invention, thus, is accomplished by changing the value of the first IFD offset to the last page, the next IFD offset of the first page to zero (null), and all of the remaining next IFD offsets to the IFD offset of the prior page. For example, in a four-page document, the first IFD offset is set to the fourth page, the next IFD offset of the fourth page is set to the third page, the next offset of the third page is set to the second page, the next IFD offset of the second page is set to the first page, and the IFD offset of the first page is set to zero (null) to indicate the last page of the job.
Table IV immediately below presents an algorithm for accomplishing this performance.
Performance of the invention in accordance with this kind of print option works without repetitively sending image data per copy for printing, but instead by repetitively sending IFDs (which are relatively small data files, or sub-files), to point back to the original first image, so that the associated TIFF reader simply repeats reading and printing of the same page for each copy. One should note that image data offsets in the IFD entries according to this practice of the invention progress from the beginning of the file, and thus the IFD data does not need to be otherwise modified. For example, in a three-copy single-page print request, the first IFD would be parsed from the TIFF file, and appended to the end of the TIFF data once for each copy other than one that is called for in the specific print job. The original IFD represents the first copy. The next IFD offset of the first IFD is changed to point to the IFD offset of the first copy, thus yielding a second duplicate copy, and the next IFD offset of the first copy is set to the IFD offset of the second IFD copy, thus producing the third duplicate copy. The next IFD offset of the second IFD copy would be set to zero (null), thus to indicate the last called-for duplicate copy.
Table V immediately below presents an appropriate algorithm for this activity.
Directing attention now to
Printing multiple uncollated copies selected from a multiple-page TIFF file is accomplished by appending a copy of each page's IFD to the end of the TIFF for each copy requested which is greater than one in number, by changing the value of the first IFD next IFD offset from zero (null), to the offset of the first page's first IFD copy, and by changing the next IFD offset of each IFD copy to the next appended IFD copy, until the last IFD copy is reached, where the next IFD offset is set to zero (null), to indicate the last copy of the last called-for page.
For example, in a two page, two-copy print job, the IFDs for pages one and two are parsed from the TIFF file. The copy of the first IFD is appended to the end of the TIFF data, once per called-for copy greater than one in number. The next IFD offset of the first IFD is changed to point to the IFD offset of the first IFD copy (thus creating the second duplicate page copy), and the next IFD offset of the first IFD copy is set to the IFD of the second page. The copy of the second-page IFD is appended to the end of the TIFF data, once per called-for copy greater than one in number. The IFD offset of the second IFD is changed to point to the IFD offset of the second IFD copy (i.e. the second page copy) and the next IFD offset of the second IFD copy is set to zero (null), to indicate the last copy of the last page in the job.
Table VI below presents an appropriate algorithm.
Addressing now what is shown in
Printing of such multiple collated copies of a multi-page TIFF file is accomplished by appending a copy of each page's IFD to the end of the TIFF in sequential page order for each copy greater than one in number which is called for, by changing the value of the last page's next IFD offset from zero (null) to the offset of the first page's first IFD copy, and by changing the next IFD offset of each IFD copy to the next appended IFD copy until the last IFD copy is reached, where the next IFD offset is set to zero, or null, to indicate the last copy in the job.
For example, in a specific print job calling for two copies of two pages, the IFD for pages one and two would be parsed from the TIFF file. Copies of the first and second IFDs would be appended the end of the TIFF data in sequential page order once per copy in number greater than one. The next IFD offset of the last page's IFD would be changed to point to the IFD offset of the first IFD copy (thus yielding the first page of the second copy), and the next IFD offset of the first IFD copy would be set to the IFD of the second page IFD copy. The next IFD offset of the second page IFD copy would be set to zero (null), thus to indicate the end of the last copy.
Table VII below sets forth an appropriate algorithm for this behavior.
Printing in landscape mode, which is not the normal default mode, is accomplished by rotating the image 90-degrees to the left, by setting the IFD directory entry for orientation to 8. 8=0th row represents the visual left-hand side of the image, and the 0th column represent the visual bottom of the image. Such printing in landscape mode is accomplished by parsing the IFD directory entries for the orientation entry, and by changing the entry, per page where required, to the value of 8.
Table VIII below describes and sets forth an algorithm for performing in this manner according to the invention.
It will thus be apparent that the present invention proposes a unique and very elegant and sophisticated approach toward utilizing the page-order, and/or page-orientation, data content within an otherwise conventional TIFF multi-page data file to accomplish driverless, rasterization-free, direct TIFF printing under circumstances allowing free selection and implementation of a very wide range of popular print options. IFD data which becomes modified by practice of the present is limited to page-order, and/or page-orientation, tag data.
While a number of embodiments and manners of practicing the present invention have been fully described and illustrated herein, it is appreciated that variations and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
