Bajarallymoto.com announced today that market leading ICO Racing has joined forces with the BAJA RALLY 2.0 as an official supporting sponsor for the groundbreaking 5-day motorcycle event this September in Ensenada, Baja CA, Mexico. For over 20 years, ICO Racing has been the undisputed leader in the design and manufacture of electronic navigation instruments for off-road motorcycle rally racing applications.
(Agua Dulce, Calif.): In celebration of his lifelong love affair with off-road motorsports, the Baja peninsula and an entire industry he helped to foster, racing legend Rod Hall was today named by the National Off Road Racing Association (NORRA) as "Grand Marshal" for the 2014 General Tire NORRA Mexican 1000. Scheduled for May 10 – 14, this unique, vintage-flavored off-road event will cover 1,300+ miles over four days starting in Ensenada, Mexicali, Baja, Mexico and finishing in the world-class resort destination of San Jose Del Cabo.
Williston, VT — The Rally in the 100 Acre Wood, the second round of the Rally America National Championship, in Salem, Missouri on February 21-22nd is expected to reunite popular action sports drivers for one of the more anticipated entry lists in recent memory.
Subaru Rally Team USA announced last January that X Games action sports icon and star of the Nitro Circus television show, Travis Pastrana, will return to stage rally racing since trying his hand in NASCAR the last few years. Pastrana is a four-time Rally America Champion. He last competed with Rally America at this very event in 2011, but suffered a stage one crash that ended his event early. See the 2011 Pastrana interview and aftermath video:
The Dakar Desert Challenge is a trans-Saharan expedition without competitive nature, which bridges two continents, Europe and Africa, through Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Mauritania, Guinea-Bissau, Gambia and ends in Dakar, Senegal. The event aims to recreate the great moments of escape and adventure of the mythical race "Paris-Dakar" with the possibility of participation of various types of motor vehicles and people with different levels of experience in long trips.
A 2nd Edition of this event, as in the earlier, will have the prologue from Coruche. On December 26, apart from the formalities, the caravan will make a route of about 40km around the municipality of Coruche, seizing the moment to make known the landscape of Ribatejo, rural zone of Portugal. The characteristics of the territory is a sufficient reason to make this first step a exciting prelude to the fantastic journey that will take your final destination in January 9, 2014.
David Higgins and Subaru Rally Team USA Win the 2013 Rally America National Championship with a Victory at Lake Superior Performance Rally – Video
CHERRY HILL, N.J. — Subaru Rally Team USA's David Higgins and co-driver Craig Drew were crowned the 2013 Rally America National Champions, with a spectacular victory at the Lake Superior Performance Rally (LSPR); the final round of the 2013 Rally America Championship. Higgins entered LSPR locked in an epic season-long battle with rival Ken Block. Block needed a win at LSPR to steal the championship away from Higgins, who had led in points nearly all season. Higgins and Block both drove flat-out at LSPR, with Higgins edging ahead of Block near the mid-point of the rally. After sustaining heavy damage by rolling his car, Block retired, handing Higgins the rally win and more importantly the Championship, his third Rally America Driver's Title in a row.
"It was the fastest that we have ever gone," exclaimed Higgins at the podium. "Our Subaru has just been brilliant again. We've enjoyed this weekend and that was really the biggest, most important factor. Sure there was a lot of pressure, but we really went out there to have fun. Rally is a team sport and I'm so proud of the one we have behind us in Vermont SportsCar and Subaru of America. I'm so happy Craig (Drew) and I could step up our game to deliver for the team."
The Rallye Aïcha des Gazelles hosted its first US based event held at Rancho Valencia Resort in Rancho Santa Fe, CA Wednesday, September 25th. A small intimate affair, select media and business leaders celebrated the rally and honored the event's founder, Dominique Serra who attended from Avignon, France.
The evening showcased all aspects of this significant women's event with a mix of mainstream media, regional corporations, and past and future rally participants present. Guests included the rally's title sponsor representative, Aïcha General Director Dan Devico, Qualcomm CMO and Rancho Valencia owner Jeff Jacobs, powerhouse sports agent Circe Wallace, representatives of ESPN and several San Diego radio and television reporters and personalities.
Attendees were treated to highlights on the history of the rally, its continued and significant support from King Mohammed VI, environmental initiatives and extensive humanitarian aid through the rally's non-profit "Heart of Gazelles."
Long Beach, CA – Rally Diabolico is an extraordinary event that will test the limits of every competitor who dares to embark on the four day event. Held April 2-5, 2014 in some of the most remote desert dunes of Sonora, Mexico, it will traverse terrain only equaled by epic rally stages found in South America and on the African continent. There will be no arrows, no burned in track and no secret lines developed during hours of prerunning. Those who brave the challenge will have only a road book, compass and their wits to guide them. If you've ever dreamed of running the Dakar or have plans to, this event is for you.
Rally Diabolico is the brainchild of Dakar veterans Darren Skilton and Scott Whitney who wanted others to share the incredible adventure and daunting challenge of navigating rally style through enormous dunes and remote, never raced upon roads. "There will be a central bivouac or pit area for support so multiple chase vehicles will not be needed," said Darren Skilton, "The location is isolated yet only a half hour or so south of the US/Mexico border. Competitors will get the ultimate challenge without the risk or huge expense of competing on a different continent."
The rally is open to bikes and cars that will be making their way over untracked, open terrain to reach a series of waypoints. Each competitor will have a GPS but it will show no roads, no course to follow, just mileage and compass headings to guide you.
ERENDIRA, BAJA CA, MEXICO – The Inaugural BAJA RALLY de MOTOS Presented By KLIM ended Sunday in San Quintin on the sand dunes of the Santa Maria Hotel and has been deemed a full success with all riders accounted for and safe. Baja Champion and 5 time DAKAR entrant Andy Grider (#36) owns the title for the first ever navigation based rally raid staged in BAJA, Calif., with Cameron Steele and Chilly White rounding out the podium.
Quinn Cody (#39) enjoyed a comfortable lead from the first mile of the rally until his engine blew up only 10 miles from the finish line. Andy Grider crossed the finish line and waited for Cameron Steele, Ned Suesse and Nino Rojas to finish. After reviewing rider data, Grider, who ran all of stage 3 without the essential odometer, was deemed the champion over rally rookies Cameron Steele and Chilly White. Grider beat Steele by a mere 6 seconds after a 30 minute penalty Grider suffered for not navigating into a dune section near Costa Brava.
The Lake Superior Region Car Club, hosts of the Lake Superior Performance Rally, was recently impacted by the recent Federal Government shutdown that forced the closure of Federal lands used in the rally racing event scheduled for October 18-19th in Houghton, MI. As a result, organizers have constructed an alternative two-day event schedule that will operate roads not affected by the Federal closure.
LSPR organizers had permission to use the Ottawa Forest roads located near Kenton, MI for Friday's competition, but were recently advised by the USFS-Kenton Office that the issued permit was invalid as long as the Federal Government remained unfunded.
The new LSPR event schedule will reuse Saturday's stages for a total of 96 stage miles, a decrease of 29 stage miles compared to the original plan. Friday service will still take place first at the Copper Country Mall then in Covington, MI.
Williston, VT — Rally America officials are proud to release the eight-round Rally America National Championship calendar for the 2014 season and continue the tradition of bringing the nation's best rally talent to the nation's best rally racing events.
Rally America returns all of last year's seven rally events for 2014, and for the second consecutive year will extend the championship season with an additional Rally America National Invitational only event to be announced at a later date. The championship increased from six to seven rounds in 2013, and will become an eight-round championship in 2014. More information will be posted on www.rally-america.com in the coming weeks.

Being a Mudder℠ is all about taking on the obstacles in your life and the enormous sense of accomplishment that you feel when you overcome them.
Being the sports and movie buffs that you and your team are, you were probably already acquainted with our favorite unknown underdog teams. You've also probably seen the inspirational sports classics like Miracle, Hoosiers and Rocky.
Everyone loves an underdog story. Some, if not most, of histories most memorable sports moments involve nail-biting David vs. Goliath matchups with everything on the line. Throughout the years, however, countless amazing, storybook-like team achievements have seeped through the cracks of sports history.
Here are four of our favorites:
Our redefined 2015 Tough Mudder course requires more camaraderie than ever before, and you need to look no further than some of our brand-spanking-new obstacles to see that.
To ensure that your team is ready for the challenge ahead, let's run down some 2015 obstacles that will put team chemistry to the ultimate test.
A Tough Mudder course is no stranger to side-splitting creativity, and coming into Tough Mudder Los Angeles, we knew LA Mudders would set the costume bar for the 2015 event season.
Needless to say, we were not disappointed. Here are our top on-course costumes from TM LA.
Did you know a few seconds, a finger and a phone could help you to enter for a chance to win a trip to Australia?
No, we're not talking about falling in love with a vacationing Aussie on Tinder, we're talking about Chipotle's Tough Mudder Text-to-Win Sweepstakes running from April 6 to 26.
During this entry period, simply text MUDDER4 to 888222 (or to 888333 if you're in Canada) to enter for a chance to win a trip for two to a Tough Mudder in Australia.
Before running a big event like Tough Mudder, we look for ways to pump ourselves up. We might dust off our old Jock Jams album, look to mentors for words of wisdom or continuously loop the Rocky-Ivan Drago fight (spoiler alert - Rocky wins). But what if instead of looking outside of us, we started looking inside of us for confidence and self-assurance?
Nearly 10,000 participants took on our Redefined obstacles at Tough Mudder Los Angeles 2015. Among them were several celebrities who signed up to test their own strength and mental grit. If you found yourself thinking "where do I know them from?" while helping someone over an obstacle, here are your answers.
So you've got a phobia or two. Congratulations, you're human.
Even though fears can be paralyzing, conquering them is within your power. Every Tough Mudder event, we see thousands of people accomplish things that mere hours ago they thought were impossible.
Having talked with countless Mudders who have overcome their fear of heights, closed spaces, failure and more, we've learned a thing or two about flipping fear the finger, and it's about time we shared our findings.
First there was Tough Mudder. Then there was World's Toughest Mudder. Then came Fruit Shoot Mini Mudder. Throughout the years, however, one vital demographic remained untapped: babies.
That's why this year, TMHQ is introducing the first-ever toddler-centric obstacle course for children 18 months to three years old and standing at least 1-foot tall: Baby Mudder.

Originally assigned the designation FS-289, the Sea Bird's construction by the Wheeler Shipbuilder Company in Whitestone, New York was finalized in 1945. The FS-289 first began making contributions to the United States Army as a cargo ship that same year. This beauty of a boat received a new designation as the New Bedford (T-AKL-17) and was acquired by the US Navy on July 1, 1950. In 1963, she was reclassified as the New Bedford IX-308.
In total, the USNS New Bedford served for nearly five decades in the Army and Navy. October 28th, 1994 finally saw the flag lowered on the vessels, thus ending its military career. While this was a significant event, it was made even more so by the ship's cinematic past. The USNS New Bedford was just as much a movie star as it was a Navy vessel, and was the largest 'actor' to appear in the 1955 hit film, Mr. Roberts.
The film brought the ship into the limelight, and rightfully so. Mr. Roberts starred numerous silver screen greats that still enchant us today. Household names including Henry Fonda, James Cagney, Jack Lemmon and William Powell create a humorous spin on the atmosphere felt during the waning days of World War II. The USNS New Bedford's (IX-308) role in Mr. Roberts was arguably the ship's most well known mission, earning it both civilian and military admirers.
The IX-308's out-of-service ceremony incorporated elements of this important part of the vessel's history. The proceedings were highlighted by audio clips taken directly from the film. Those present heard memorable film quotes just as they had been spoken by the actors in the film so many years ago.
The ceremony was not limited to the ship's film history, but also touched on its long military career. The Mayor of the City of New Bedford, Massachusetts, the Honorable Rosemary Tierney, was in attendance along with retired Navy Captain Frederick R. Purrington. Purrington was a seasoned Navy pilot and squadron commander. He not only served for more than 20 years, but also survived six years and four months as a prisoner of war in Hanoi. Today he is heralded as one of New Bedford's most distinguished and respected residents.
The out of service ceremony commenced flawlessly, but did not end without one final act of good humor. Code 80's Steve Schultz appeared as Ensign Pulver at the end of the proceedings. He sprinted down the bow of the vessel with a palm tree. Schultz, or rather Pulver, launched the unsuspecting palm over the pier in one final act of defiance as well as in celebration and honor of the New Bedford IX-308.

Apartment hunting. It's probably one of the least fun things to do. Sure it's fun to take stock of all the different types of apartments out there (Exposed brick! A decorative fireplace! Two closets! Oh my!), but if you're anything like me (small budget, expensive city), the fun stops there.
Believe it or not, it is possible to find an amazing place in an expensive city—even if you're on a tight budget. At least that's what Mukul Lalchandani, broker with The Modern Agent, says.
Here are Lalchandani's tips for finding affordable rentals in expensive places. Keep these in mind the next time you're in the market for a new abode:
Avoid condos and co-ops. These tend to have higher fees, says Lalchandani, including broker fees and miscellaneous application fees. "If you go to a rental building, where all the units are rentals, there should be no broker fees, and usually there is only a credit check fee somewhere between $50 and $100," he added.
Know when to shop. Existing tenants tend to give their notice of vacant apartments at the beginning of the month, so this is when the most inventory hits the market, with the best prices available.
Besides shopping around at the beginning of the month, March through September is the main rental season in Manhattan, adds Lalchandani, which is when most inventory hits the market and new rental buildings open up for leasing. This is a good time to get additional perks, like one month of free rent if you sign a lease early in their opening.
Negotiate. You can usually negotiate the rent in a rental building by at least $50-$100 off the asking price, says Lalchandani. For condominiums, you can try to go higher, to $100 or more. Plus, for a condo or co-op lease, try to negotiate some of the application fees to be shared by the landlord. Since they're individual owners, they tend to be more willing to negotiate.
Set your focus. If you have bad credit, your best chances are to focus on Condo properties, says Lalchandani. Individual owners are more lenient in accepting bad credit situations, but expect to put down more of a security deposit because of it.
Put your detective skills to work. If you're looking for an apartment in a certain building, but there doesn't seem to be anything available in your budget, find out the name of the agent who has done the most recent deals in the building. There are several websites, like streeteasy.com, that show who listed the units in which building. "They're probably very active with the building, and know of rentals that might be coming up on the market," says Lalchandani. Since they're familiar with the building, they could try to negotiate a good deal for you from the beginning.
Go the roommate route. If you won't settle for anything less than a luxury building, but they're way out of your price range, consider going the roommate route. "A typical one-bedroom in the city is around $3,500 in the luxury apartment," says Lalchandani. "If you can convert the living room into another bedroom by putting up a wall and split the rent in two, that's $1750 per person."
And trust me when I say—in Manhattan, that's not a bad price for a one-bedroom.

Tac/varanus... tips?

I had a similar problem with a Tac and wanted to pilot a Gorn ship.
I thought have cannons at first but decided against them after trying them out. As a Sci ship the Varanus gets 4 of the target sub system abilities. Two of those aren't the best, but targets weapons and shields are extremely useful, and they are free powers on a ship that only has two tac boff slots.
This character will hit Rep 5 tomorrow and I think I'm going to get him the Omega plasma torpedo and cutting beam, they will probably be useful in this setup. I haven't parsed with the current config, but I can tell you its putting out alot of DPS, 1,100dps from the each of the dual beam banks alone, unbuffed. Buffed they are well over 2k.
I've also chained the target subsystems and torpedo spread together so this ship always has at least one of those active.
Anyway, here it is. There's still room for improvement though. All the weapons will eventually be replace with fleet variants. I do have alot of shield and hull heals. The hull heals might be alittle redundant with the repair platform and might try out some powers once I get around to it.
Fore Weapons:
1 Photon Torpedo, 2x Dual Disruptor Beam banks Mk12
Aft Weapons:

nVidia 169.04 (GF7600GT), TV-Out not working
Hello everyone!
I have a problem with TV-Out (S-Video) with latest beta installed.
Initially it worked fine, but I cleaned my xorg.conf (installed default) when was installing previous version of drivers and after changing anything in nvidia-settings my TV-Out is no longer working.
Here's my xorg.conf (I've also tried different settings around nvidia-settings, but no result as well):
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
Added: running on Kubuntu 7.10 (with updates from 8.04), with latest Xorg (7.3) and Xserver 1.4. While I'm in console mode (no X/kdm loaded - TV displays image, after loading X it disappears). Kernel - 2.6.22.
Added: figured out. The problem was in screen numbers.

On March 12, the Chicago-based Woodstock Institute released research claiming that mortgage lenders discriminate against female applicants. The research is presented in a "fact sheet" and previews a longer report the group plans to publish later this year. The study reviewed 2010 HMDA data on first lien single-family home purchase and refinance mortgage applications in the Chicago area and purports to show that (i) female-headed joint applications are much less likely to be originated than male-headed joint applications and (ii) this disparity holds true across all racial categories and is most pronounced for African American women. The Woodstock Institute further claims that these disparities are more pronounced for refinance loans. Based on its conclusions, the group urges federal regulators and enforcement authorities to conduct further investigation, including through enforcement of HUD's recently finalized disparate impact rule. It also recommends that the CFPB prioritize enhancing the HMDA rules to make public more information to better identify discriminatory lending practices.

As leading enterprises recognize, the turn from web applications to mobile apps is as big as the last great architectural shift, from client-server to web. Mobile requires nothing less than a new foundation, one that equips IT to:
Deliver great, native apps over a range of devices and operating systems.
Provide simple, mobile-optimized connection to an exploding set of backend data.
Evaluate app portfolio ROI through a unified set of analytics.
And this foundation must be as purposefully designed, as pleasing to use and simple to consume, as the apps that will be built on top of it.
We call it the Appcelerator Platform.

COLUMBIA CITY — The Columbia City High School Marching Eagles have been working throughout the summer to prepare for a number of fall performances and competitions.
Helen Hockemeyer, the band's director, is in her fourth season with the Marching Eagles. She has seen the scope of the band program evolve under her direction.
"We have grown our overall program in the past three years to have two concert bands, a winter color guard, who finished third in the state in their class, a state gold medalist percussion ensemble, two competitive jazz ensembles and various state medaling soloists," said Hockemeyer. " When I began here, there was only one concert band, winter guard and percussion."
To keep the program growing, Hockemeyer, along with a host of parents and supporters, have organized a fundraiser in partnership with Ball Furniture.
Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., the hometown furniture store will strike a chord with CC Deli and offer free food as well as 40-50 percent off everything in the store.
The sale will directly benefit the Marching Eagles.
Hockemeyer said, "We are looking forward to partnering with Ball Furniture and the CC Deli to support our local businesses as they have supported us. We keep the majority of our business right here in Columbia City, which includes Gotcha Covered, Murphy Jewelers, Mancino's, Bugsy's, and others."
Students and parents alike are getting excited for the upcoming marching season. Jennifer O'Connor, the band's booster president said, "The vibe is very excited and nervous. The band has a tough, but incredible show this year. This show is one that is very capable of taking them closer, if not all the way, to state than any other year. They have had to step it up a notch on their skills, show and music this year and are handling it very well."
In addition to home football games, the marching band will compete in six fall competitions. The first one will be Sept. 8 at Bluffton High School.
Drum Major and senior band member, Foster Eber said, "This season feels different to us than seasons in the past. Everyone really seems to be enjoying themselves, which really makes us want to do our best. The other seniors and I agree that this feels like it will be our best season yet, not only by how well we do, but also by how much fun we are going to have."
Eber went on to say, "I feel lucky to perform with such a great group of friends and cannot wait for our first competition at Bluffton."
Other competition dates include Sept. 15 DeKalb Invitational, Sept. 22 East Noble Invitational, Sept. 29 ISSMA District at Homestead High School, Oct. 6 Homestead Fall Festival and Snider Parade of Champions and finally, Oct. 13 ISSMA Regional at Chesterton High school.
According to Hockemeyer, the band's competition show is themed after the video game and movie, "Final Fantasy." The show is entitled, "Flight of Fantasy."
Ashley O'Connor, a member of the marching band said, " I feel like we have had a great start. It's like any other activity, it starts out hard, but all of the students put their time and effort into this activity and pushed through it all. I feel great about this year."
The band is hosting the Second Annual Alumni Invitational at the homecoming game Sept. 21 at 6 p.m. Columbia City will be taking on New Haven and alumni can join in on the music festivities.
Hockemeyer said, "We had a great turnout last year, but would love even more this year."Alumni can obtain music ahead of time by e-mailing Hockemeyer at email@example.com [3].
Hockemeyer has a group of band assistants to help facilitate rehearsals and lend their particular expertise in different band sections. They include Carolyn Hindbaugh, Luke Holliger, Amy Yadon, Karen Rodenbeck, Chris Hartman, Tommy Cox, Michael Estep and Zach Hupp.
In addition to these assistants, the band is supported by a group of parents that form the Band Booster. They include President Jennifer O'Connor, Vice President Gary Chapple, Treasurers Jeanne Tison and Kirsten Mathews, Secretaries Christine Scroggs and Mary Neher and Band Manager Mark Swain.
For more information on the Ball Furniture band benefit sale, contact the store at 244-5805. Ball Furniture is located in downtown Columbia City.

Candidates seeking office in Harlan County are gearing up for a forum to take place Tuesday at 6 p.m. at the Harlan Center.
The Harlan Daily Enterprise, radio station WTUK 105.1, television station WYMT, Harlan Community TV and the Harlan Center are sponsoring the forum.
The forum is being moderated by WYMT Vice President for News and General Manager Neil Middleton.
According to WTUK Station Manager Jeff Capps, around 90 percent of candidates in the races for sheriff, jailer, judge-executive, circuit court judge and state representative have already confirmed their participation in the event.
Capps said unfortunately those running for magistrate could not be included because there are too many candidates. He said a magistrate forum could possibly be held at a later date.
"All questions will be submitted by email to Neil Middleton," said Capps.
All questions must be submitted no later than noon on Tuesday.
To submit a question, email it to email@example.com
"Neil will take the questions and put them together," said Capps. "Each candidate will be given one minute to answer. The same question will be asked to the other candidates in that race."
Capps said each candidate will be given the opportunity to answer first at least once.
"This is the second one (forum) we've had, and it kicks off the political season as everybody gets ready to go at it," said Capps. "This is the big one."
Capps said this forum will be useful to those wanting to learn more about the candidates.
"As much as they (candidates) try and get out, we have a very rural county," said Capps. "They may not see everybody. For a little effort, you can come see them. We're making it easier for the candidate to reach the public."
The event is free to the public.
"All we're asking is campaign signage be left in the cars and in the parking lot," said Capps. "We're going to be taping this for TV and it will be shown live on TV. We don't want signs in the way."
The forum will be shown live on Harlan Cable Access channel 34. The forum will also be recorded and made available on WTUK's website. The Harlan Daily Enterprise will also provide a link to the recording on our website at www.harlandaily.com.

11.04.07 - Howard Eastman continues the process of regaining his triple crown when he faces Evans Ashira for the vacant Commonwealth Middleweight boxing Title at the Dudley Concert Hall on Friday April 20th live on Sky Sports. Former British, Commonwealth and European champion Eastman relinquished his championships in order to challenge then undisputed champion Bernard Hopkins in 2005. Two world title eliminators followed, before he regained the domestic crown by knocking out old friend and fellow Londoner Richard Williams in December..
Former two-times world title challenger Ashira, now based in Denmark but from Kenya, is another major step back towards the top level.
Ashira took Welshman Joe Calzaghe to points for the WBO Super-Middleweight boxing Crown in 2005 and a year earlier lost a bid for the WBA Middleweight Title against big puncher Maselino Masoe.
Its good to be continuing the rebuilding process and to be boxing again for another title so quickly, said the Battersea Bomber. If I can get the Commonwealth title back around my waist, it will be another step towards another world title fight.
I belong at that level and when I am fully prepared I can beat anyone. It is still very much my intention to win a genuine world title.
At the moment Im focussed on Ashira. Hes a top-class operator in his natural division and I will have to be at my best.
Eastmans promoter Mick Hennessy agrees that Ashira will bring a stiff challenge, but one that can lead to bigger things if overcome.
Ashira is without doubt a fringe world class operator at middleweight, said the Hennessy Sports head. He was never big enough for 12 stone; super middleweight just wasnt his division.
At this weight he is a real handful. This is an excellent standard of fight for a Commonwealth Title. Its a tough opponent for Howard to win another of his old titles back against, but one he can use to spring himself back into contention for bigger honours.
Eastman will be supported on the bill by Hennessy Sports team-mate Billy Corcoran and a host of local favourites, with Dean Hickman, Dean Harrison, Sam Horton, Paul Truscott, Kevin Buckley, Martin Gordon and Steve and Martin Gethin all in action.

Nate's new neck art
|05.27.10 at 11:14 pm ET
Nate Robinson has been relatively quiet for most of the postseason, but he drew attention during Game 5, and it wasn't just because of his basketball.
Robinson scored five points, grabbed a rebound, a steal, and even blocked Dwight Howard in nine minutes, his most playing time since May 7.
During the game, Yahoo! Sports spotted a new tattoo on Robinson … on his neck. The tattoo resembles the Bentley logo, with the number "8" in the center in place of the letter "B."
Yahoo! noted Robinson tweeted about getting a new tattoo prior to Game 4. Click here for further explanation of the design and a photo of the ink.

|Red Sox LHP Jon Lester pushed back 2 days
|Written by Admin
|Saturday, 20 July 2013 10:40
Red Sox manager John Farrell announced the change Saturday before the teams met for the middle game of the three-game weekend series.
Lester (8-6, 4.58 ERA) has struggled since starting 6-0 start this season. He has allowed at least five runs in five of his last 11 starts, giving up four in three others.
Lester is now scheduled to start Tuesday against Tampa Bay.
Farrell didn't cite any specific reason for the rotation change, but said ``two extra days will help him.''

In 2010 and 2011, Cuba's government released dozens of political prisoners on condition they accept exile in exchange for freedom. Since then, it has relied less on long-term prison sentences to punish dissent and has relaxed draconian travel restrictions that divided families and prevented its critics from leaving and returning to the island.
Nevertheless, the Cuban government continues to repress individuals and groups who criticize the government or call for basic human rights. Officials employ a range of tactics to punish dissent and instill fear in the public, including beatings, public acts of shaming, termination of employment, and threats of long-term imprisonment. Short-term arbitrary arrests have increased dramatically in recent years and routinely prevent human rights defenders, independent journalists, and others from gathering or moving about freely.
Arbitrary Detentions and Short-Term Imprisonment
The government continues to rely on arbitrary detention to harass and intimidate individuals who exercise their fundamental rights. The Cuban Commission for Human Rights and National Reconciliation—an independent human rights group the government views as illegal—received over 3,600 reports of arbitrary detentions from January through September 2013, compared to approximately 2,100 in 2010.
The detentions are often used preemptively to prevent individuals from participating in events viewed as critical of the government, such as peaceful marches or meetings to discuss politics. Many dissidents are beaten and threatened when detained, even if they do not try to resist.
Security officers virtually never present arrest orders to justify detentions and threaten detainees with criminal sentences if they continue to participate in "counterrevolutionary" activities. In some cases, detainees receive official warnings, which prosecutors may later use in criminal trials to show a pattern of delinquent behavior. Dissidents said these warnings aim to discourage them from participating in activities seen as critical of the government.
Victims of such arrests may be held incommunicado for several hours to several days. Some are held at police stations, while others are driven to remote areas far from their homes where they are interrogated, threatened, and abandoned.
On August 25, 2013, more than 30 women from the Damas de Blanco (Ladies in White)—a group founded by the wives, mothers, and daughters of political prisoners and which the government considers illegal—were detained after attending Sunday mass at a church in Santiago, beaten, forced onto a bus, and left at various isolated locations on the city's outskirts. The same day, eight members of the group in Havana and seven more in Holguín were arbitrarily detained as they marched peacefully to attend mass.
Political Prisoners
Cubans who criticize the government may face criminal prosecution. They do not benefit from due process guarantees, such as the right to fair and public hearings by a competent and impartial tribunal. In practice, courts are "subordinated" to the executive and legislative branches, denying meaningful judicial independence. Political prisoners are routinely denied parole after completing the minimum required sentence as punishment for refusing to participate in ideological activities, such as "reeducation" classes.
The death of political prisoner Orlando Zapata Tamayo in 2010 after his 85-day hunger strike and the subsequent hunger strike by dissident Guillermo Fariñas pressured the government to release the remaining political prisoners from the "group of 75" (75 dissidents sentenced to long prison terms in a 2003 crackdown). Yet most were forced to choose between ongoing prison sentences and forced exile. The overwhelming majority accepted relocation to Spain in exchange for their freedom.

Three of them are pitted against one another in Chamaraja Assembly segment
Four former Mayors of Mysore will be in the poll fray this time.
In Chamaraja Assembly constituency, three former first citizens are pitted against one another. They are: Vasu, the Congress candidate; H.S. Shankaralinge Gowda, the Janata Dal (Secular) candidate, and M. Bharati, the BSR Congress candidate.
First time
Contesting the Assembly elections is not something new for either Mr. Gowda or Mr. Vasu, but for Ms. Bharati, who quit the Congress and joined the BSR Congress, it is her first Assembly elections.
Mr. Gowda, a four-time MLA, climbed up the political ladder after serving as Mayor several years ago.
He won the elections from Chamaraja constituency on a BJP ticket, four times in a row from 1996. This time, he will fight the elections on the JD(S) ticket.
Mr. Vasu, who runs a chain of institutions including an engineering college here, was the first citizen of Mysore in 1989. This is the third time Mr. Vasu will contest the elections. He lost the previous two elections to Mr. Gowda.
Ms. Bharathi became the 20th Mayor of the city in 2005. She won from Ward 31 in Chamaraja Assembly constituency on a Congress ticket. She was the first Scheduled Tribe candidate to occupy the top post.
After keeping a low profile for many years, she has now come out to revive her political career.
L. Nagendra, three-time councillor, is the BJP candidate in Chamaraja constituency.
In Narasimharaja
Sandesh Swamy, a former Mayor, will be up against the former Minister and three-time MLA Tanveer Sait, who is contesting on the Congress ticket from Narasimharaja constituency. Mr. Sait has served as a councillor in the Mysore City Corporation.
Mr. Swamy of the JD(S), a three-time councillor, was elected to the top post in April 2010, following an understanding between the JD(S) and the Congress. Mr. Swamy won by a margin of seven votes, defeating Mr. Nagendra of the BJP.
Mr. Swamy represents ward no. 62 (Gayathripuram), which comes under Narasimharaja constituency.
Mr. Swamy's brother, Sandesh Nagaraj, who is a JD(S) MLC, hotelier, and film producer, was defeated in the 2008 elections by Mr. Sait in Narasimharaja.

Washington First Bank robbed in Sterling
According to a report from the LCSO, at approximately 12:45 p.m., a man walked into the Washington First Bank at the Cedar Lake Plaza shopping center, implied he had a weapon, though he did not display one, and demanded money.
The suspect is described as a black man and approximately 5'11" tall. At the time of the robbery, he was wearing a red zip-up jacket, a brown "golf-style" hat and black pants.
This is the third bank robbery in Loudoun County in a month. The previous incidents occurred at a PNC Bank in Sterling and a Bank of America in Ashburn. Both of the suspects in those cases have since been apprehended.
Anyone with any information regarding this robbery, or the possible identity of the suspect, is asked to call the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office Criminal Investigations Division at 703-777-0475. Callers wishing to remain anonymous are asked to call Loudoun Crime Solvers at 703-777-1919. If the information provided to Crime Solvers leads to an arrest and indictment, the caller could be eligible for a cash reward of up to $1000.

Afghanistan Through A Journalist's Eyes
By Geoffrey Riley & Charlotte Duren
Afghanistan has been called "the graveyard of empires," because many a powerful country occupied Afghanistan, and NONE left on good terms.
Journalist Edward Girardet arrived in Afghanistan shortly before the Soviet Union invaded more than 30 years ago. After the USSR left, it ceased to be the USSR.
Edward Girardet has fared better, despite frequent trips to Afghanistan, getting to know the country and the people.
He shares his years of experience covering the many wars with an audience in the Rogue Valley tonight (August 15), and in our studio today.

Although neither of them got the same kind of bounce as Toyota—which enjoyed a massive 87.3 percent sales increase in May—Ford and GM both rebounded strongly from their sub-par April numbers, while the Chrysler Group stayed the course by raising sales by more than 20 percent for the 12th straight month. Significantly, the domestic automakers also reported similarly impressive results on the retail side of the business, along with a number of record-setting performances by individual models.
May Auto Sales: Chrysler Group Posts 33 Percent Sales Gain
Everything continues to come up roses for the Chrysler Group, as sales blossomed for all brands and the company as a whole posted its best May sales in five years. The tale of the tape: 150,041 units, an increase of 33 percent over the same month last year.
Further, five vehicles set new sales records last month:
- Chrysler 200—13,250 sales, +87 percent
- Jeep Wrangler—14,454 sales, +44 percent
- Dodge Avenger—10,682 sales, +93 percent
- Dodge Challenger—4,816 sales, +41 percent (and a new all-time monthly record)
- Fiat 500—4,003 sales, +128 percent
Other notable Chrysler Group performers last month included the Chrysler 300, up 140 percent; Dodge Journey, notching a 56 percent jump; and the Jeep Grand Cherokee, which lifted sales by 40 percent. The Jeep division also recorded its highest May sales totals since the same month in 2000.
It's worth pointing out, too, that the Chrysler Town & Country, which the automaker recently announced would be discontinued in 2014, benefited from a 56 percent sales bump in May on its way to 10,323 deliveries; its Dodge Grand Caravan sibling, set to carry on the company's minivan leadership, grew sales by 32 percent with 12,418 deliveries last month.
May Auto Sales: Ford Fusion Sets Retail Record
Ford tallied 216,267 May sales, good for a 13 percent leap, and that included a 12 percent increase in retail sales. The big story was the Ford Fusion, which captured its highest number of monthly retail sales ever—despite the fact the current model will soon be replaced by the all-new 2013 Fusion. All told, the Blue Oval's midsize sedan garnered 26,857 sales in the previous month and reaped an 8.9 percent rate of growth.
The Ford Explorer and Ford F-150 also showed strong sales in May. The former expanded sales by 10.1 percent on the strength of 14,662 deliveries—the highest monthly total for the current-generation Explorer. The latter was once again the fastest-growing of the Big Three full-size pickups, with an incredible 54,836 sales and a 29.3 percent advance.
Backed by the arrival of refreshed entries for the new model year, the Ford Mustang (10,427 sales, up 57.8 percent) and Ford Flex (3,818 sales, up 40.4 percent) also moved ahead noticeably.
Finally, it does appear as if Ford's lux division may have started turning things around, as the Lincoln MKS, Lincoln MKX and Lincoln MKT reported gains of 24.2 percent, 26.7 percent and 103.5 percent, respectively.
May Auto Sales: GM Achieves Highest Total in 33 Months
General Motors surprised observers with its strongest sales volume in more than 2½ years—245,256 units—which was good for an 11 percent overall boost in deliveries and a 14 percent leap in retail sales. Buick, Chevrolet and GMC were up by 19, 10 and 19 percent, respectively, but Cadillac struggled its way to a 15.1 percent decline, with all models losing ground except for the Cadillac Escalade ESV.
Bright spots for the General included:
- Buick Enclave—6,709 sales, +55.2 percent
- Chevy Sonic—7,205 sales, +59 percent (as compared to the vehicle it replaced, the Chevy Aveo)
- Chevrolet Silverado—34,555 sales, +21.5 percent
- Chevy Malibu—29,579 sales, +15.5 percent
- Chevrolet Equinox—20,238 sales, +15.1 percent
- GMC Acadia—9,128 sales, +31.8 percent
Also, the Buick Verano, in its first year on the market, had its fourth consecutive month-over-month sales gain, thanks to 3,609 deliveries.
And while much of GM's growth came on its full-size trucks—big pickups stepped up their sales by 23 percent last month—green watchers can take some solace in noting that the Chevrolet Volt was the company's fastest-growing entry in May, racking up a 249.3 percent increase in sales on 1,680 deliveries.

I've only got a pawn so far, but I'll post the rest here as I go. pawn (View in 3D) A question about walls: It has a less than 2mm wall (I think), and I can apparently print it in stainless steal, which requires a minimum wall of 3mm. Is that because of the shape? Another one on patents. I assume this design isn't covered anymore, as it was originally patented in 1849, and i don't think patents last that long, but I know they can be renewed and thought I should ask if anyone knew how to check? Given that it is now used everywhere, I am assuming that it has long expired, but better safe than sorry. EDIT: Rook (View in 3D) p3d.in is freaking out in a couple of corners, but shapeways doesn't seem to mind. I think that the issue is to do with the proximity of some of the verticies in the obj file. It doesnt seem to be creating a face that should be there. bishop (View in 3D) Considering they take so little time to spit out, I should really be finished with these by now. EDIT 2 - Royals king (View in 3D) queen (View in 3D) EDIT 3 - Knight knight (View in 3D) ]]> ararara_ 2012-09-22T01:00:17-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=54471&th=10932#msg_54471 Incidentally, unless you have a fair amount of cash lying around, I doubt that you would want to print a chess set in stainless steel.]]> TurtlesAreCool 2012-09-25T01:48:54-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=54692&th=10932#msg_54692 JoseZachary: It would entirely depend on what you want. If you want a functional chess set, then the cheapest material possible would be fine, as long as you could order them in different colours. As it currently is, that pawn weighs in at 3.99 cm³, so it prints in strong and flexible coloured plastics for under $9. A full chess set needs eight pawns per side, with two rooks, two knights, two bishops, one king and one queen. Every piece is quite a bit larger than the pawn, so you are looking at (at a guess) probably less than $200 a side if you print it in the plastic. That is quite expensive for a chess set. Usually you would pay that kind of money for a very good quality one. As it currently is, printing them in one of the nicer materials will probably cost an arm and a leg, as TurtlesAreCool has mentioned. I will do a bit of work on them to get the costs down, which shouldn't be hard as I'm sure these models don't need the base I've given them, but it may prove cheeper to go and buy a chess set from your local games shop. The design will be the same (this design is apparently 200 odd years old, and used everywhere (there are already some versions of them on shapeways, even)), and you wont have to construct your own board. By the by, I've edited the first post with more models.]]> ararara_ 2012-10-01T05:28:31-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=54693&th=10932#msg_54693 As far now not going with costlier set so satisfied with those cheapest one. ]]> JoseZachary 2012-10-01T05:51:57-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=54699&th=10932#msg_54699 I've also modified the pawn, to have narrower walls. I've got it down to 2.28 cm³, which reduces the cost some what (less than $6 for one pawn in the plastic). However, in the material list, in the picture, there is a big red exclamation mark for the strong and flexible plastics. This is, I'm guessing, a warning of some kind. Can anyone tell me what that pertains too? Edit: I removed the hole in the bottom, leaving it hollow, and uploaded it again, and interestingly enough, it says it comes out at 7.13 cm³. I would have thought it would have added 8mm³, because that was about the size of my hole. I guess I have done something wrong, but I thought you could have models filled with plastic? Am I miss understanding something? Edit 2: Found my answer, on the exclamation mark. Apparently that is it failing the wall thickness checking... which is interesting because it only failed for strong and flexible plastics, which have a minimum wall thickness of 0.7mm, which is the same as fine detail plastic, and smaller than everything except frosted detail plastic and silver.]]> ararara_ 2012-10-01T08:56:51-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=55019&th=10932#msg_55019 As to the thickness of my pawn, I've increased it to 2.57 cm³ and had it printed in some of the plastics. While I am yet to have them shipped to me, I've only heard of problems with the detailed plastic model; the other plastics, at this stage, seem to be working with the current wall thickness. I'll leave them until I get the pawns, and then thin them out and print them too. The only problem is the knight. Usually, I would use the shell modifier in Max, and IIRC (it has been a long time since I wanted to hollow something), it would deal with overlapping edges, to an extent. Blender's counterpart, solidify, just seems to do a reverse extrude. This is a good start, but that and Remove duplicates were producing uncertain results for me. Does anyone have any advice on hollowing complex models in blender?]]> ararara_ 2012-10-08T07:00:03-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=55028&th=10932#msg_55028 For your knight I would start hollowing it out by doing a Boolean tool operation - take a difference between the figure and a vertical cylinder that has a radius 1 mm less than the narrowest part of the figure. Repeat with a cylinder along the head. YOu can switch to edit mode, and sculpt the inner hole to come closer to the outside wall. I helps to get this right if you "hide" the parts you are not working on at the moment. What I also use is an extra item in the model: A small sphere of 1mm (or whatever you minimum thickness is) that I move around and into the walls. If it does not poke out of the walls, the thickness is OK. When selecting the model to eport, don't select the sphere. Greetings Dragoman]]> Dragoman 2012-10-08T13:32:39-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=55245&th=10932#msg_55245 ararara_ 2012-10-12T09:16:16-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=55266&th=10932#msg_55266 Fredd 2012-10-12T17:21:57-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=55267&th=10932#msg_55267 Glenn]]> lensman 2012-10-12T17:29:55-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=55319&th=10932#msg_55319 You can see I did some prelimenary maths in a previous post, and with some of the models optimised a bit, it is going to come out at arround $160 for a full set in plastic. I can't see many people buying that, when there are better speciallity sets that can be gotten. Alternativly, if you want to buy an expensive set, you could go down to your games shop and pick up a standard set in a nice material. You can probably get expensive metal versions for elss than the shapeways printing cost. I will probably get myself a set in plastic, but after that I don't think anything will become of it.]]> ararara_ 2012-10-13T23:29:48-00:00 Re: Standard Chess Set http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=55555&th=10932#msg_55555 ararara_ 2012-10-18T09:11:15-00:00
