Memphis vs. UCLA Preview
Memphis vs. UCLA Preview
Memphis vs. UCLA
By Brad Young
Even though both Memphis and UCLA are number one seeds playing in the Final Four, there are few similarities between these schools. The Tigers are playing in their first Final Four since 1985, while the Bruins are making their third consecutive trip to this stage. UCLA remains the most dominant school in college basketball history, winning 11 titles behind such marquee players as Lew Alcindor and Bill Walton.
There are also a ton of similarities between these teams heading into Saturday's matchup. Besides being number one seeds, both schools have won 30-plus games the last three seasons. The Tigers and Bruins are also led this year by sensational freshman.
Memphis freshman guard Derrick Rose wrapped up the South Regional Most Outstanding Player by going for 21 points, six rebounds and nine assists in the Elite Eight victory over Texas. UCLA freshman center Kevin Love captured the West Regional MOP award by posting 19 points and 10 rebounds against Xavier.
These schools also have some Final Four history after meeting in the 1973 championship game. UCLA throttled the Tigers in that contest, 87-66, behind Bill Walton's 44 points.
Caesars Palace currently lists Memphis as a two-point favorite over UCLA, with the total set at 135. This contest opened as a 'pick,' with the total set at 134 ½. CBS Sports will provide coverage of Saturday's contest beginning at 6:05 p.m. ET from San Antonio's Alamodome.
Memphis (37-1 straight up, 16-19 against the spread) advanced to the Final Four after beating the last two teams by 18 points. The Tigers throttled Texas in the South Region final Sunday as a 3 ½-point favorite, 85-67. The combined 152 points toppled the 144½-point closing total, helping the 'over' cash the fourth consecutive contest.
Memphis jumped out to an 11-point halftime advantage (39-28), and finished the contest by outrebounding the Longhorns, 34-31. The Tigers shot 50 percent (26-of-52) from the field while limiting Texas to just 36 percent (25-of-69). Guard Chris Douglas-Roberts led all scorers with 25 points including 14 points from the free-throw line, while forward Joey Dorsey contributed 11 and 12 rebounds.
Memphis tied a Division I record for wins in a season, with its lone loss occurring to Tennessee when the Vols were ranked second. The Tigers have remained in the top-three of the polls all season.
Memphis sports a 17-0 SU and 9-7 ATS record away from home, winning those affairs by an average score of 77-63.
UCLA (35-3 SU, 21-14 ATS) has also dominated teams en route to San Antonio after routing Xavier Saturday as a 6½-point 'chalk,' 76-57. The Bruins had failed to cover their previous two affairs. The combined 133 points slithered 'over' the 132-point closing total, helping the 'over' cash the second consecutive contest.
UCLA entered halftime with a 33-24 advantage, and finished the contest by outrebounding Xavier, 34-26. The Bruins shot a robust 54 percent (28-of-52) from the field, while limiting the Musketeers to just 36 percent (21-of-58). Four starters reached double digits in scoring, led by Love and guard Darren Collison's 19 points and five assists.
Coach Ben Howland's team is 16-1 SU and 11-5 ATS on the road, winning those contests by an average score of 76-58.
Memphis and UCLA met twice on neutral courts during the 2005-06 season, splitting those affairs. The Tigers prevailed in November 2005 as a 6 ½-point 'chalk,' 88-80, while the Bruins triumphed in the 2006 NCAA Tournament as a three-point underdog, 50-45.
Memphis guard Andre Allen is expected to miss Saturday's matchup with the Bruins due to a team suspension.

Final Four analysis & pick: Memphis vs. UCLA
Memphis vs. UCLA
Well, this is a bit of a surprise. After a season in which they couldn't shake the doubters and second-guessers, the Memphis Tigers go into the Final Four laying chalk against UCLA, the pre-tournament favorite.
Before the tipoff of this year's tourney, the UCLA Bruins were listed by Las Vegas oddsmakers at +450 to cut down the nets in San Antonio, while Memphis had the longest odds of any of the No. 1 seeds at +600. Despite a 33-1 record and a non-conference schedule that included eight Tournament teams, a lot of people thought Conference USA wasn't an appropriate breeding ground for NCAA champions.
I guess after watching them dominate a Texas team that beat UCLA at Pauley Pavilion earlier this year, a lot of bettors changed their minds (bettors can be so fickle). This line opened with Memphis at -1 (a pick 'em at one Vegas sportsbook) but a flood of Memphis money forced bookies to jack the spread to -2 and even -2 ½ at some shops.
It's not surprising that people have changed their minds about this team. Against Texas, it was finally evident that the size and length across the board on this Tigers roster will tip the scales in their direction against almost any team in the country. Texas had no shortage of talented players, especially in the backcourt, but with Chris Douglas-Roberts at 6-foot-6 and Derrick Rose at 6-foot-3, the Texas guards couldn't seem to get a good look at the basket and ended up going 10-34 from the floor. As a team, the Longhorns shot 36.2 percent from field-goal range and 32.1 percent from beyond the arc.
But the Bruins match up much better with the Memphis guards. At 6-foot-5, Josh Shipp is nearly as big as Douglas-Roberts and Russell Westbrook also has decent size for a guard. Darren Collison (6-foot-1) still gives up a couple of inches to Rose, so you can probably expect a big game from the Tigers' freshman, whose play will go a long way in determining the outcome of this game. Rose, has taken advantage of size mismatches throughout the tournament and, in addition to his scoring output, has averaged six rebounds per game – not a contribution most teams would expect from a point guard.
Memphis also has some big men in the frontcourt, but against UCLA, it looks like they won't have the advantage. Joey Dorsey (6-foot-9, 265 lbs) is usually able to outmuscle opponents in the paint, but against the 260-pound Kevin Love – probably the most skilled and athletic big man in the nation – he'll have to worry about a lot more than fighting for position and wrangling rebounds. Although Dorsey is a good athlete, you have to give the edge to Love in that matchup.
Don't be fooled. This will be a very different game from the one Memphis played with Texas. Although the Bruins lost to the Longhorns earlier this season, UCLA is a much more physical and balanced team and will be much more difficult to defend – particularly on the perimeter.
And then there's the X-factor: Kevin Love. Dorsey is big enough to match up with the UCLA wunderkind, but when Love starts making fade-away jumpers and spin moves in the lane, Dorsey could find himself in foul trouble. Even if Dorsey manages to avoid fouls, UCLA will certainly try to get the ball in his hands as often as possible and he's proven throughout this tournament that he's more than equal to the challenge. If I had to choose between freshman phenoms that will take over this game, my money is on UCLA's big man.
Pick: UCLA
Re: Memphis vs. UCLA Preview
(1) Memphis (37-1, 17-19-2 ATS) at (1) UCLA (35-3, 21-14-2 ATS)
Back in the Final Four for the third straight year but still looking for that elusive national championship, UCLA takes on Memphis, which is back on college basketball's marquee stage for the first time in 23 years.
UCLA, which had to battle Texas A&M to the finish in the second round, then hold off a game Western Kentucky squad in the Sweet 16, pounded Xavier 76-57 last Saturday as a six-point chalk to win the West Regional. The Bruins snapped a two-game ATS skid and have now won 14 straight contests, though they've gone just 7-7 ATS in that span, including 3-5 ATS in their last eight starts.
Memphis hammered Michigan State 92-74 laying 5½ points in the Sweet 16, then capped a dominant weekend by drubbing Texas 85-67 Sunday as a 3½-point favorite to win the South Regional. The Tigers, who had fallen in the Elite Eight the past two seasons, have won 11 in a row since suffering their only loss of the season to Tennessee on Feb. 23. However, despite cashing in both games last weekend, they are still just 4-7 ATS during the winning streak.
This is a rematch of an Elite Eight clash in the 2006 Tournament, a game UCLA won 50-45 giving 2½ points. Earlier that season, Memphis bested UCLA 88-80 as a 6½-point home chalk in November 2005.
UCLA is 1-2 SU and ATS in its last two Final Four contests, with the winner cashing in each contest. In 2006, the Bruins beat LSU in the semifinals before dropping the title game to Florida, while last year, they lost to the Gators 76-66 as a three-point 'dog in the semifinals. UCLA last won the national championship in 1995. Meanwhile, Memphis hasn't reached the Final Four since 1985.
The Bruins are on negative ATS stretches of 2-4 overall – all against winning teams at neutral sites – 1-4 on Saturday and 0-5 after a pointspread victory, as they haven't cashed in consecutive games since Feb. 17 and 21 – a stretch of 12 contests. However, they are 22-7-1 in their last 30 starts as an underdog, including 8-2 ATS in their last 10 as a pup of less than seven points. In its only previous game as an underdog this season, UCLA toppled Stanford 76-67 as a one-point pup.
The Tigers have cashed in just six of their last 18 contests overall, and they're mired in additional ATS slumps of 1-6 following a spread-cover, 2-4 in non-conference play and 2-5 ATS against the Pac-10. On the positive side, though, Memphis has covered two straight games for the first time since January and is 5-1 ATS in its last six as a Tournament chalk of up to 6½ points.
All four No. 1 seeds reached the Final Four for the first time. Favorites went 3-1 ATS last weekend in the round of eight and are now 37-22-1 ATS for the Tournament.
The Bruins have been solid defensively through much of the Tournament, allowing just 53.3 points per game on 32.8 percent shooting, while averaging 71.3 ppg on 48.8 percent shooting on offense. In addition, they are plus-46 on the glass, outrebounding their four opponents by a 160-114 total.
Memphis is racking up 85.3 ppg in the Tournament, surpassing 77 points in all four games on 49.6 percent shooting, while allowing 69.5 ppg on 42.8 percent shooting. The Tigers have outrebounded their opponents in all four games, winning the board battle by a total of 145-114.
The over for UCLA is on a 2-0 uptick and is also 7-2 in its last nine Saturday meetings and 4-1 in its last five as an underdog. On the other hand, the under is on runs of 16-6 for UCLA in the Tournament, 6-2 for UCLA as a Tournament 'dog and 4-2 for UCLA outside the Pac-10. For Memphis, the over is on a 5-0 tear in Tournament play (4-0 this year) and is 5-1 in non-conference action, but the under is 4-0 in its last four against the Pac-10.

Improving MPEG-7 Sound Classification
This paper describes a mechanism to improve the sound classification algorithm included in the MPEG-7 standard without modifying or extending it. The sequential classification is turned into a hierarchical classification. Thereby it is possible to adopt the classification algorithm more flexible to the characteristics of the sound classes. This paper also gives a detailed view on how the algorithm is implemented using a XML database to store and request content information of the audio signals and model descriptions of sound classes using the MPEG-7 standard.

James White, Director of Tax Issues, GAO
The IRS has a problem. It needs to send refund checks to law-abiding taxpayers in a timely fashion, while also looking out for identity thieves. A new report from the Government Accountability Office says one way to do that is to change the formula the agency uses to assess identity theft fraud. Last year, the IRS handed out $6 billion in fraudulent claims. James White, the director of tax issues at GAO, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with more on the report's findings.

Obama is rightly ignoring the calls from both the right as well as within his own administration to take a stronger stand on the situation in Iran. These pleas -- such as from Sen. John McCain, Rep. Mike Pence, Paul Wolfowitz, or Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, as reported in the New York Times Thursday -- merely reflect the stale American solipsism that's to blame for our sundered image abroad in years past. Obama has made notable progress in polishing the previous administration's tarnish, but a single slip-up at the wrong moment could reverse it all in a second.
If Obama were to speak out and side with Mousavi in the current Iranian uprising, it would transform a legitimate, organic popular movement into a GOP teabag party. As many may recall, the conservative teabag movement in April was an embarrassing flop. Though it donned the mask of a grassroots uprising, it was quickly revealed to be naught but astro-turf (fake grassroots) -- carefully orchestrated by conservative corporate lobbyists, Fox News and even the Republican Party. The result was that nobody took the "popular movement" seriously, regardless of its scale, prevalence, message or sincerity.
Those who wish for Obama to adopt a stronger tone seem to be under the delusion that everyone doesn't already know exactly where he stands. Beyond being mistakenly impetuous, explicitly choosing a side in the current conflict without knowing who will emerge on top offers no possible benefit. Though the Iranian regime already blames the West, the Iranian people are not stupid. They know full well how to spot propaganda. And fortunately, as reflected by the Supreme Leader's Friday prayer today, Europe is taking the brunt of the blame, especially the United Kingdom.
This bodes well for Obama's position. And as Suzanne Maloney of the Brookings Institution has noted, this is as it should be, considering that Europe actually has a presence in Tehran, as opposed to the US who cut off all relations in 1979. Putting the United States on the front-line would play directly into the propagandists' hands -- the propagandists who still control the levers of power in the Islamic Republic, I might add.
At the ninth National Iranian American Council (NIAC) conference on US-Iran relations Wednesday, a roundtable of Iran experts agreed that Obama's tacit stand for free expression against violence was sufficient. And that anything further would be counterproductive. According to Maloney, it is important that we not "make ourselves the story, thus undermining or endangering people on the streets...Senator McCain should be reminded of this."
Those who insist that Obama throw his hat in the ring do not hide their lack of faith in the Iranian demonstrators. They shape their argument as pro-democracy and pro-freedom of expression, but they ground it in the arrogant belief that an American endorsement is the sine qua non of any successful democratic political movement. Let the Iranian's have their moment, they know whose side we're on. Presuming that they require the explicit validation that comes with an American presidential statement is to fall prey to the same patronizing self-aggrandizement that has for so long plagued our dealings abroad. Obama is wise to ignore his "expert" advisers and the "experts" from the past administration.

For many years I have had bird feeders on my deck offering black sunflower seeds, suet, peanuts and niger seeds in both winter and summer, always on the lookout for the unusual migrant arrival. This winter things have been pretty mundane. Although the number of birds has been about normal, variety has been lacking. Nuthatches (both), woodpeckers (hairy and downy), chickadees, goldfinch, purple finch, bluejays, a few tree sparrows, an occasional junco, and a couple of mourning doves have been about the whole list except for a dwindling flock of wild turkeys and one ruffed grouse. All of these species are year round residents of the area. Disappointingly absent this year have been any sightings of redpolls or evening grosbeaks. A little research reveals two different scenarios for the missing birds. The redpoll is an inhabitant of the far northern boreal forests and breeds even farther north in arctic regions. Relatively little is known about population trends because of the remote area it inhabits. The redpoll irrupts regularly on a two-year cycle into the northern US and across Canada, driven south by a scarcity of the seeds it depends on in winter, particularly birch, willow, alder, and various conifer trees (especially spruce). A check of Christmas Bird Count records for my local count circle confirms this cycle: even numbered years from the mid-nineties to the present show high numbers (100-400 birds) while odd numbered years have from zero to less than a dozen redpolls. The brightly colored evening grosbeak inhabits a large area of the western US extending south into Mexico. It moved eastward above the great Lakes and along the Canada-US border to the Atlantic coast only during the 1900s. The evening grosbeak also is driven south by seed crop shortages and in the 70s and 80s was a common winter feeder visitor in the northeast. A flock of evening grosbeaks would clean out a sunflower feeder in an hour or so, but this has not been a common occurrence in recent years. Vermont Christmas Bird Count numbers for evening grosbeaks in the eighties and early 90s are in the thousands (high of 7179 in 87) but since the late nineties have been only a few hundred, with a low of only 57 birds in the early 2000s. Scientists believe the evening grosbeak expanded into the east as result of an increased availability of the box elder. This tree was widely introduced as an ornamental planting in many cities, has many seeds, and retains these seeds into the winter. Another enticement for the grosbeak was the spruce budworm. Some studies show that the evening grosbeaks breeding presence in a new area can signal an impending spruce budworm outbreak before any forest damage is evident! Perhaps the spraying of the budworm has controlled the insect but shrunk the grosbeak population to pre-expansion levels? Next year I expect the redpoll will be more numerous but the evening grosbeak will probably remain a scarce sighting in this part of the country for some time to come.

By QISHIN TARIQ firstname.lastname@example.com
KUALA LUMPUR: The loan repayment period for grocers under the Small Retailer Transformation Programme (Tukar) has been more than doubled from seven years to 15 years up.
Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said the ministry wanted more grocers to join the Tukar programme.
"The Government has agreed to extend the Tukar loan repayment period to reduce the burden on grocers when paying back their monthly instalments.
"Hopefully, this will encourage more to sign up for the programme," he said here yesterday after witnessing the signing of a memorandum of understanding by four more private companies joining as consultants for Tukar.
Under the Tukar programme, Bank Rakyat will provide loans ranging from RM20,000 to RM60,000 to participating grocers.
Ismail Sabri said grocers who had already applied for loans could discuss with Bank Rakyat to retroactively extend their loan repayment period.
He said it was still too early to tell if those given loans were keeping up with their repayments.
Under the 10-year transformation programme, the Government aims to modernise traditional grocers nationwide with the aid of consultants to increase the country's gross national income and create more jobs.
Its implementation is expected to contribute RM5.56bil to the Gross National Income and create 51,540 job opportunities by 2020.
As of June 23, the ministry had identified 1,705 small retailers who met the criteria for participation in Tukar, but there were only 300 takers so far.
Ismail Sabri said that of the 300 grocers who had applied for loans under Tukar, 163 had qualified while the rest were still under review.

The same old blood! the same red-running blood!
There swells and jets a heart, there all passions, desires,
reachings, aspirations,
(Do you think they are not there because they are not express'd in parlors and lecture-rooms?)
from Walt Whitman – I Sing the Body Electric on Genius
In an essay called "Politics and Poetry: Leaves of Grass and the Social Crisis of the 1850s", David S. Reynolds writes of these lines:
The poem later called "I Sing the Body Electric" presents a profoundly humanistic variation on the slave auction…
The Cambridge Companion to Walt Whitman (Cambridge, 2006), p. 82.
In doing so he indicates the passion with which Whitman sought to reclaim the common humanity from social institutions which had driven it apart: in this instance, our attention is drawn to the "passions, desires" common to all of us, but which are often divided across things like "lecture-rooms".

Pork scam pits congressman vs congressman
A congressman is in hot water over an allegation that 98 legislators were involved in a supposed pork barrel scam.
Cavite Rep. Elpidio Barzaga on Tuesday filed a resolution asking the House committee on ethics and privileges to investigate his colleague, Abakada Rep. Jonathan de la Cruz, who floated the allegation in a press conference last week.
In Resolution No. 169, Barzaga noted that the allegation was based only on a "one-page photocopied document" purportedly coming from De la Cruz's source at the Commission on Audit (COA). The document was labeled as "draft."
Barzaga said the allegation "added to the already clouded public perception of the legislature and undoubtedly constituted an attack on the integrity of the members of the House of Representatives and the institution itself."
He said House members should be "circumspect in giving out statements which may affect" his colleagues.
Told about the resolution, De la Cruz said he would face the investigation, insisting that the allegation did not come from him but from the COA.
"I will definitely attend the (ethics committee) hearing. I'm prepared because I did not do anything wrong," he told the Inquirer. "What I was saying was that we should all work together and look at this (COA allegation)."
In a separate interview, Barzaga said his resolution was meant, not only to clarify De la Cruz's allegation, but also to allow other members of the House to clear their names.
"Nothing personal (with De la Cruz). Trabaho lang (It's just work)," he said.

I have very sensitive skin and this product doesn't dry out or irritate my skin.

One tube lasts a pretty long time, but I like buying multiple because I travel frequently. Great product. Love it.

This product is very good. It works on remove scar quickly.

I've used Nature's Cure for a few years now, and I can't say enough about it! I'm an adult in my 40s and get embarrassing adult acne. I've tried many topicals, including ProActiv (and other knock-offs), but nothing worked. I saw this product and was skeptical--but if you remember to keep up the pill treatments, nothing beats it. I found the pills to have no side effects and have a pleasant taste when you chew them. The cream can be a little strong--use a little at first and work your way up. I use the cream now on an as-needed basis. Great product!! Wish the drug stores would bring it back though.

Police are investigating after a pig's head was left outside a mosque.
Officers said the severed head was left on steps leading to the Shah Jalal Bangladeshi Community House in Cambridge late on Monday.
A spokesman said Muslim worshippers - who consider pigs unclean - found the head as they arrived at the mosque for prayers.

Middlesbrough boss Gareth Southgate claims he is under no illusions and expects to be sacked should the club become embroiled in a relegation dogfight.
Chairman Steve Gibson has backed the rookie boss despite a lack of consistency in his first season and defended Southgate from criticism that he did not have the necessary qualifications to lead a top-flight club.
"If things were going wrong, I'm sure Steve Gibson would act as swiftly as he does in his own business, but he is realistic," he told the Middlesbrough Gazette.
"He doesn't expect us to be a Champions League team in 18 months. That gives you time to plan and get your head above the water.
"Last year was fire-fighting, trying to fix things as I went along. Only towards the end of the season was it possible to plan ahead.
"I've got more belief in myself now. And the one thing I know here is that no-one inside the club is against me. The whole club is very much united.
"It was brave of him to appoint a novice and I am still grateful. It's a strength for us that we have a chairman who comes from the town and who wants to give something back."

A remarkable story documenting the build up of one of the greatest rivalries in sports history and the burying of the hatchet once and for all.
Kelly Slater, Andy Irons, Shane DorianWatch Trailer
|After a decade of bitter rival status, Kelly Slater and Andy Irons come together and surf off their differences. Nobody was expecting this trip to happen. To get two seemingly mortal enemies to agree to sequester themselves on a tiny island with a half-dozen cameramen, a Hollywood interviewer capable of conjuring up tears during any interview, and an in-the-know magazine staff waiting with bated breath seemed like a ridiculous notion. Despite hectic schedules, preconceived notions, and the most heated rivalry in modern surf history, somehow it all came together. The end result was a ten-day purge of feelings, emotional baggage, dispelling rumors, talking it out, and a burying of the hatchet once and for all. Oh, we nearly forgot to mention that the waves were insane!

With retro design proving highly popular at present, the traditional Leica-esque styling of the NV7 couldn't be more fashionable. Despite its flair, the Samsung is sturdily built, with a satisfying feeling of robustness. Note that it's one of the larger models in this group test, so we don't suppose you'll find it too easy to slip into your pocket or handbag.
At the core of the NV7 is a 7.2Mp sensor, which is capable of producing images more than 3,000 pixels across and movies up to a TV-friendly 640x480 resolution. The NV7 features a potent optical range thanks to its Schneider 7.1x zoom lens, which equates to 38–270mm in 35mm terms. It's finished off with a healthy f2.8-f3.7 aperture range.
And Samsung has wisely fitted the NV7 with a CCD shift-stabilisation system to iron out small movements.
The Samsung is the only camera we've tested recently that offers actual exposure control, both fully manual and in the form of aperture and shutter priorities. It also boasts a sizable collection of scene and automatic modes.
So it's a shame that image quality doesn't quite live up to its promise. While the fringing is kept nice and low and the white balance and saturation are reasonable, there are persistent noise issues at virtually any ISO setting. Venture anywhere near the maximum of 1,000, for example and the picture starts to resemble bad satellite television.

In addition to oversight of the marketing and sales staff, Azama will officially become the sports administrator for Miami Men's basketball.
Josh Fenton, Senior Associate Athletic Director for Finance and Administration, praised Azama for his past performance.
"Anthony's commitment to Miami's athletic department for the last six years has been tremendous," said Fenton. "He works in one of the most difficult areas of the entire department and has been able to show progress with unique strategies and techniques in promoting our programs and selling tickets. Anthony is one of the most creative and intelligent people we have. In addition to his current duties, Anthony will be officially taking over all licensing and merchandising responsibilities. We also are formalizing his role as the men's basketball sports administrator."
During Azama's time at Miami, group ticket sales have grown more than 130 percent, while football season tickets have seen a 30 percent increase. Spearheading the creation of a sales team, Azama helped improve ticket revenue and cultivate relationships in an effort to "Win the Backyard" of campus, Oxford community and Butler County.
During the past two years, Azama has served on numerous boards and committees, both on campus and in the community. His most recent appointments as Chair of the Oxford Chamber of Commerce and the Butler County Visitors Bureau Governing Board emphasize his commitment to positioning Miami Athletics as an asset in the Southwest Ohio region.
Prior to his arrival at Miami University, the Daytona, Florida native joined Florida Citrus Sports (FCSports) in Orlando in various capacities. As the Associate Director of the Gridiron Classic College All-Star Game, Azama assisted with all operations of the game, ranging from the scouting and selection of talent, to securing sponsorships and marketing the event on local and national levels. Prior to its discontinuation in 2005, the Gridiron Classic raised in excess of $1 million for spinal cord research.
In addition to his position with the Gridiron Classic, Azama was an influential part of FCSports properties. He played an integral role in sponsorship negotiations for several FCSports events, including the title sponsorship of the Cingular ABC Sports All-America Team Celebration, one of the organization's signature events. During FCSports other two bowl games, the Capital One Bowl and the Champs Sports Bowl, he served in a similar capacity to his role with the Gridiron Classic, acting as the primary contact for participating institutions.
In July of 2005, as the Associate Director of the Walt Disney World Florida Classic, an annual football game between Bethune-Cookman University and Florida A&M University, Azama handled marketing, sponsorships and day-to-day operations for the game, in addition to serving as the primary point of contact between the participating schools and FCSports. The Florida Classic became the largest HBCU game in the country. He also served as the brand manager for groups and emerging markets, including the Boy Scouts of America and Mid-Florida Pop Warner Football.
A cum laude graduate of Vanderbilt University, Azama was a three-year letter winner on the Commodore football team and received his bachelor's degree in human and organizational development. Following graduation he was inducted into the Mid-Tennessee Chapter of the College Football Hall of Fame, an honor bestowed upon him for his athletic performance, academic accomplishment and community service. He was selected to the All-Southeastern Conference Scholar-Athlete Academic Team, SEC Good Works Team and was on the Vanderbilt Dean's List three times.

I've really been having fun watching the sexy Duchess and Prince Combover travel across Canada this past week, donning local costumery like kids at a multicultural parade at a politically correct elementary school, but I've not been truly amazed until catching this summer dress Kate Middleton upskirt picture where the Cannuckian winds played a blessed joke on the royals, for the benefit of gentleman oglers everywhere. Just a year ago, I can't even imagine getting excited over the prospect of leering up any British royal's frock, but, oh, how times have changed. Just look at that little future queen's bum. Bloody good show indeed. Enjoy.
P.S. Since we're talking royal bums, at the same time as Duchess Catherine was flashing the bare bum in Canada, across the pond in the Old Country, little sister Pipa Middleton was showing a bit of the Middleton bottom muffins herself in a pair of skintight jeans. These girls play rough. And I like it!

Create a hanging keepsake for Mom this Mother's Day with your favorite photos together and colorful scrapbook papers. Use wood letters to spell out "Mom & Me." Your Mom is sure to love this homemade Mother's Day gift by Terri O.
- Particle board cut into 12 x 12 squares
- Acrylic paint
- Brushes
- Scrapbook paper
- Decoupage medium (I used CollagePauge by Tulip)
- Wood letters ( I used Dancing Letters by Plaid)
- Chipboard in different sizes
- Adhesive runner (I used Scrapbook Adhesive permanent and the Xyron )
- 2 eye hooks
- Ribbon
- Cut board and sand sides to smooth edges. Paint edges. I used Ballet Pink Folk Art by Plaid.
- Using decoupage medium adhere one full sheet of paper to the board. I used the "Love Notes" line by Making Memories.
- Line up your photos across the top. I used paper from My Minds Eye as a border under each photo that matched. Using your adhesive attach the photos.
- Under the photos I used some co-coordinating ribbon.
- Paint your letters, let dry and glue them underneath the photos.
- Print our your poem or whatever it is you want to say on matching paper and attach brads to each corner. Adhere to board.
- Attach eye hooks to the top and add ribbon for hanging.
Terri O Tips
- Before you glue anything down lay out your design first. When you like what you see then glue it down.
- Try to stick with one or two lines of papers and use all the co-ordination embellishments. It makes matching much easier.
- If the photos are your originals I suggest making copies and using them.

Carlsbad homeless shelter at center of controversy
Proper paperwork
Short-term beds at the shelter go to people who need immediate housing in times of inclement weather. Shelter employees say that sometimes they give those beds to people who don't have identification and may be in the country illegally.
"I'm a Christian person, I'm not going to discriminate," Preciado said, adding that he thinks God would bless his decision. "I think we're going to answer to someone one of these years (for how we treat others)."
Meanwhile, the three-month beds go to people who are U.S. citizens or immigrants who have paperwork that entitles them to legally work in this country, Preciado said. Critics have said such documents can be easily faked.
At a City Council meeting earlier this week, members of the San Diego Minutemen, a group that has launched a crusade against illegal immigration, said it's easy to get false paperwork and predicted that staffers at the farmworker shelter would probably be duped by such documents.
"If we are providing housing for illegal aliens, we are aiding and abetting illegal aliens," Jeff Schwilk, the group's leader, told the council as he urged it to rethink the funding decision.
Several employees at La Posada conceded Thursday that they may have already had people stay who had fake work papers.
"Maybe these people have, that we don't know," caseworker Juan Lopez said.
Looking for housing
It was apparent Thursday that some shelter occupants weren't in the country legally -- they said so.
The two young Mexican farmworkers who chatted at a shelter picnic table Thursday afternoon told a North County Times translator that they had sneaked across the border a month ago.
They declined to give their names or the names of the places that had recently hired them, saying that might get them in trouble.
Shelter caseworker Juan Lopez said the two had work papers to show center employees. However, he said, he had more pressing concerns than their immigration status.
Lopez was worrying about finding permanent housing for the elderly man who needed the walker to get from the bunkhouse building to the dining room. The man had come to them directly from a local hospital. Even if the man stays three months at La Posada's free shelter, he won't have enough Social Security money set aside to cover the first and last month's rent for an apartment in the area, Lopez said.
He added that he's trying to transfer the man to a shelter in San Diego after he's been at La Posada for three months. That would give the man six months to save his money, but the San Diego shelter has a waiting list and may not be able to take him, Lopez said.
Meanwhile, the homeless man who runs the window-washing business said he expects to spend a few more weeks at La Posada -- he'll leave when the rainy season ends and business picks up, he said.
The man, who declined to give his name because he didn't want his clients to know he was at the shelter, said that he heard about the place years ago when he hired someone who lived there temporarily.
"Never thought I'd be here, but here I am," he said.

So what you gonna' say that I don't know already?
I'm like Clyde and I'm Rockin' Steady
from Beastie Boys – Pass the Mic Lyrics on Genius
In 1974, Walter "Clyde" Frazier, an NBA basketball player for the New York Knickerbockers, wrote a book titled Rockin Steady: A Guide to Basketball and Cool. Frazier's tome contains tips on court generalship, clothes, grooming and other matters.
Clyde led the Knicks to the franchise's only two NBA Championships in 1970 & 1973 and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball HOF in 1987. Today, he provides color commentary and a distinct air of cool to local Knicks game broadcasts…

Hip-Hop hot spots usually stand out because of a unique sound (New York has street-heavy lyrics, Houston is chopped & screwed, and Miami has lots and lots of bass). Unfortunately, Washington, D.C. hip-hop does not yet have a truly unifying sound. Fear not, residents of the nation's capital, because 19-year old newcomer Marky is here! Helping to spearhead this movement, which is fashioned after D.C.'s go-go scene and bolstered by a deal with veteran exec Steve Rifkind's SRC Records, is Marky's first single, Sheila (I Want Her). Produced by in-house beatmaker AB The Producer, the record possesses one of the earmarks of a national hit: it appeals to folks who don't even listen to much hip-hop. Marky's debut album, Hate Is the New LoVe, is currently set to drop sometime in '09.

If you are looking for a killer gaming card, but find the 7800GTX too expensive, then you will want to check out the recently released 7800GT. It's been scaled down to 20 Pipes and 7 Vertex Units but it still packs a massive punch. We are taking a look at the eVGA version, which comes pre-overclocked! Time to see what this beast can do.
Now that all the specs are out of the way, let's move on to to see more of what this card has to offer.
NVIDIA chose a 400MHz Core and 1000MHz Memory, which eVGA happily overclocked to 445MHz and 1070MHz, respectively. This is a bonus, because those who do not want to risk voiding a warranty, don't have an immediate need to overclock. Even though the card is pre-overclocked, it comes complete with a lifetime warranty. Of course, BFG offered the same for quite a while, so it was only a matter of time before another company joined the fray. BFG's version of the card only overclocked the Core by 25MHz, so eVGA has the advantage here.
As already mentioned, the card contains 20 Pixel Pipelines and 7 Vertex Units. The card comes with 256MB 256-Bit GDDR3 memory, at 535MHz (Effectively 1,07GHz). The memory bandwidth can also reach an amazing 32GB/s. Lastly, the card is built upon a 0.11 process, and contains 302 Million transistors.
The 7800 GT inner workings are extremely similar to the GTX, so even though the card is scaled down, it has amazing potential. During the review, we are going to try to safely overclock our 7800 GT to see if it can reach GTX speeds, and keep respectable temps.
For those who are interested, here is a 6800GT and the 7800GT side by side. The 7800 is slightly larger, but is still nothing you will have to worry about. Ever since I've seen the size of the 6800GT for the Apple, I learned to never complain about size again.

Stupid, anybody can look.<quoted text>
That would be about as far as you can get, in your pursuit of critical thinking skills...guesswork, blundering about, in the dark. Lost and clueless. Like when you thought you'd gotten the better of me, asking to name some of the books I'd made mention of, and i gave you about 50, or so, titles. And then you had to drop the subject, because you'd been made a fool of. And you knew...I mean, guessed it.
I asked you to name a single book, promoted by GLSEN to children as young as five, that showed adult/child sex in a favorable light.
Anybody interested can look at
and see I am telling the truth.
You didn't come up with a single title. Free clue, "And Tango Makes Three" doesn't show adult/child sex in favorable light, that was one of the titles you posted. And people can now see you are lying when you said I dropped the subject. I'm the one posting a link to the original challenge!
Now, scoot, ugly.

Can not connect to media server
When starting Backup exec A box "connect to server" appears asking for username/password. Canceling gets a box, "You have not connected to media server. Would you like to exit the application". Entering a username/password does not connect to media server. It tries to connect to local media server but never does and never times out.
Everything was working fine until after the holidays I changed my password on this machine. Although using either password does not solve the problem.
What do I try next?
Comments 2 Comments • Jump to latest comment
That box normally indicates the required services haven't started, either because you haven't given them time to start yet, or because they failed.
Check the login details that the services use, are they using the account that you have changed the password for? In which case you'll need to re-setup their login details to use the correct login details. Otherwise, check the event log and see what errors are being generated by Backup Exec when it fails to start the servers.

Effects of vocoding and intelligibility on the cerebral response to speech

BMC Neuroscience 2011, 12:122 doi:10.1186/1471-2202-12-122Published: 30 November 2011
Degrading speech through an electronic synthesis technique called vocoding has been shown to affect cerebral processing of speech in several cortical areas. However, it is not clear whether the effects of speech degradation by vocoding are related to acoustical degradation or by the associated loss in intelligibility. Using vocoding and a parametric variation of the number of frequency bands used for the encoding, we investigated the effects of the degradation of auditory spectral content on cerebral processing of intelligible speech (words), unintelligible speech (words in a foreign language), and complex environmental sounds.
Vocoding was found to decrease activity to a comparable degree for intelligible and unintelligible speech in most of the temporal lobe. Only the bilateral posterior temporal areas showed a significant interaction between vocoding and intelligibility, with a stronger vocoding-induced decrease in activity for intelligible speech. Comparisons to responses elicited by environmental sounds showed that portions of the temporal voice areas (TVA) retained their greater responses to voice even under adverse listening conditions. The recruitment of specific networks in temporal regions during exposure to degraded speech follows a radial and anterior-posterior topography compared to the networks recruited by exposure to speech that is not degraded.
Different brain networks are involved in vocoded sound processing of intelligible speech, unintelligible speech, and non-vocal sounds. The greatest differences are between speech and environmental sounds, which could be related to the distinctive temporal structure of speech sounds.

Old Time Radio Testimonials
Post a message...
I was a young announcer for the NBC Blue Network radio affiliate in Boston in the mid-1940s at a time when George Burns and Gracie Allen came to town to appear at the old Boston Garden.George and Gracie were busy with a thousand-and-one things to do; they sent their announcer, Bill Goodwin to be interviewed by our program manager. She introduced Mr. Goodwin to me, saying: "This is my announcer, Lou Dumont. Do you have any words of advice for him?" The very personable Mr. Goodwin told me to always remember to use 'pear-shaped' tones whenever I did my announcing thing. He used, as an example,part of his network commercial for the sponsor of the Burns and Allen show at that time. It was: "WELL I SWAN, HOW ABOUT YOU?" The makers of Swan Soap got an extra commercial from Bill Goodwin.I remember that as though it were yesterday.
Lou Dumont (Olde Cape Cod), December 26, 2012
I got hooked on the old Time Radio programs this past October when I accidentally found the Radio Classics channel on Sirius/XM while on a trip in my car. I loved the old suspense and detective shows. I now have my car radio tuned to that channel and on occasion listen to it on my computer. I've purchased several shows on discs from you and have placed them on my mp3 player. I listen to one show a day as I get my exercise walking around a nearby cemetery. Right now, I've got enough programs on the mp3 player to last me for several months. Still, I may very well be ordering more just to have them in the future. Thanks for enabling me to enjoy these wonderful, entertaining shows.
Richard (USA), December 26, 2012
I can't imagine how quickly you get your CDs out in the mail. I don't recall if I placed my order Sunday or Monday, but it was in the mail December 24th and in my mailbox December 26th. Thanks to you and the USPS for such expedient delivery.
Where I listen, when I go to bed. Most times I fall asleep within 15 min. of the first half hour. Takes several nights before I hear a whole program. That's how I listened to the mystery shows when I was a kid.
Ralph (USA), December 23, 2012
Two real life radio stories.The first is the urban legend that, on the day after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Green Hornet's Japanese valet, Cato magically became the Green Hornet's Phillipino valet.The second involved a famous 1950's jive talking NYC and Philadelphia rock 'n roll DJ, Jocko Henderson whose sign off at the end of each program was: "Tell 'em Jocko sent you." Two guys rob a gas station in Philly. As they sped away, one guy yelled out the car window: "Jocko sent me!"Happy Holiday.
Jeff Gollin (Holmdel, NJ), December 22, 2012
I would like to mention the place that I listen to OTR as well. I restore vintage radios and find that listening to these old radio programs adds a measurable level of enjoyment to the process. In particular, the Sam Spade series is my favorite. The sampler CD's are excellent listening opportunities to be introduced to programs that I have never heard of before and appreciate. Thank you...
Joe (USA), December 22, 2012
OTR is without a doubt, the best collection of Old time radio archives on the planet. The quality and service are also top of the line. I look forward to my many purchases from OTR as they always take me back to yesteryear, if even for a little while! Merry CHRISTmas!
Scott Morgan (Mississippi), December 19, 2012
I had planned to open my recent purchase on Christmas day. I could not wait. The quality of your recordings is excellent. In the very early 1970s, I purchased reel to reel recordings from Golden Age Radio, in Portland, OR. I am now 60 years old which probably make me a child in in this interest group. My life has been blessed. By chance, I was able to personally meet
Stan Kenton, Lionel Hampton, Peter Lawford, Woodie Herman, Red Buttons, Jan Murray and most of all Edgar and Francis Bergan. On May 12, 1974, I did the sound for a live performance of Edgar. That was two days before my 22nd birthday. I was a big fan and I am sure he knew it. He was a very nice man. I have a recording of his performance and maybe someday Ill send it to you.I purchased your entire library of Moon River. For many years, I have had trouble going to sleep at night. I had eight shows in my collection. Each night, I play Moon River and fall to sleep. So, I decided to order them all. I hope you enjoyed my short story and wish you a Merry Christmas.
Greg (USA), December 17, 2012
You are my go to source for Christmas and Birthday gifts for my Dad. I need for him to dig out all his samplers and let me know which ones he is missing. I'm kind of hoping he has a double someplace so he can send it to me. *lol* Thank you for your prompt shipping!
Bernie (USA), December 17, 2012
My mother introduced me to the wonders of radio when I was very young. Since the only way I could see our RCA black and white television was me staring at close range to it due to my vision impairment. Her first program she introduced me to was The Lone Ranger and what an impact that made on a 4 year old! (I even had a chance to thank Fred Foy in 1993 at an otr convention for being 'my storyteller'. My birthday August 31, 1955 was the last day of recording original Lone Ranger with Brace Beemer!) Then she went on to introduce me to programs that would educate me and I slightly remember this program as being one of those. There were a few programs of this type that I enjoyed. I remember listening to 'Heartbeat Theater' in 1963 on WMAL-AM 630 and the story of a little girl who happens to dial the Salvation Army number on the phone. As she talks to our caring hero he finds out that this little girl's mother has fallen ill and might die. This little girl doesn't know anything about where her address is or even her telephone number and of course at this time there were no Caller-IDs to refer to. So the hero of our story has the girl describe her location in what she sees outside her window and viola the mother is saved. I still remember that story because the voice of the little girl was I think portrayed by June Foray! Anyway all this to say these radio programs popped up more frequently on the radio when the big networks moved to TV and only smaller organizations and groups sponsored and underwrote these type of shows. Alas I miss the big network offerings when I hear a really good one; but today with the Internet and radio acting groups doing such fine work I know the art form of radio will not die it will just be rediscovered again and again.
Robert (USA), December 9, 2012
I order quite a bit on line and your company is without a doubt the best when it comes to customer service and value for the money. Thanks again and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
Loretta (USA), December 5, 2012
I am a satisfied customer who has purchased perhaps 25 discs from you. I *do* enjoy these old shows --- many pleasant memories for me. Back in the old days, when I was a child, I listened raptly to the radio while kneading those plastic bags of margarine for my parents in order to turn the margarine yellow and to look like "real butter". And yes, I remember breaking a few bags in the process, and I remember being told " Pay attention to what you're doing!" Of course, I was paying attention to the radio, not to the margarine.
Bill (USA), December 4, 2012
I love listening to OTR radio. Sometimes, actually, many times I wish I could turn back the clock to when the programs were live. I was born in 1953 so have no memory of radio. Recently, while having dinner with my folks, my dad said that Jello for desert reminded him of the Jack Benny program. I was thrilled that I knew what he was referring to:-)
Judy Fallon (Massachusetts), December 3, 2012
Once again OTRcat discs have safely crossed the big pond and I have more goodies to listen to as I drive around. Thanks for the usual good service and for the effort you folks put into gathering these shows together.
Jim S (UK), November 29, 2012
I am so excited about finding your website! My mom is turning 80 in a few weeks and i can't wait to give her these cds. As a kid i heard about the radio shows she listened to long ago and i thought it was a long-shot to find anything out about them. It's amazing what you can find with the internet/ I was blown away by the awesome collections you offer and even more-so by the affordability! I don't think i have ever been so excited about a gift for anyone. She will be so happy and hopefully will enjoy countless hours of listening to the shows she remembers so well. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Footprints on Another World
November 13, 2004
On July 20th, 1969, humans first set foot on the Moon. Taken from a window of their Apollo 11 lunar module, the Eagle, this picture shows the footprints in the powdery lunar soil made by astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. It has been estimated that one billion people on planet Earth watched Armstrong step from the lander onto the surface of another world, making this live transmission one of the highest rated television shows ever. In the foreground at right, a rocket nozzle on the side of the Eagle is seen in silhouette, while beyond an unfurled United States flag is the television camera, remounted on a stand to better view the landing area. The Apollo missions to the Moon have been described as the result of the greatest technological mobilization in history.

BLACKBROOK - The government in Black Brook declared a state of emergency April 12 after snowmelt flooded onto the roads, leaving a number without shoulders and sections of pavement. The Ausable River was a foot over flood stage following a night of heavy rainfall and a day which saw temperatures pushed into the 70s.
Bonnieview, Forest Dale and Strackville roads endured the worst damage, but Guide Board, Union Falls, and Nelson roads were damaged as well.
Bonnieview Road, which had been closed by 1 p.m., was open again at 4 p.m. A proclamation of local state emergency urged travelers to exercise extreme caution within the town limits. Local officials have not yet estimated how much it will cost to fix the damage.

Late RBI lifts Mustangs to 10-9 tourney win
Elena Bennett singled an 0-2 pitch to drive in the winning run in the bottom of the seventh as the Midwestern State Mustangs beat Emporia State in the Courtyard by Marriott Invitational at Mustangs Park.
The Mustangs (12-4) had enjoyed an 8-3 lead until they gave up six runs in the top of the sixth.
The had to score twice in the bottom of the seventh to get the win.
Katelyn Vinson singled with one out and Haley Howerton followed with a single through the left side. Carey Campbell walked on eight pitches to load the bases and Kim Jerrick walked to drive in the tying run.
Bennett then came through with the game-winner.
Laci Belovsky (7-2) got the win for MSU, despite giving up 10 hits, walking three and hitting five batters. Eight of the nine runs were earned.
The Hornets used five hits, a walk and a hit batter to score the six runs without an MSU error.
Back-to-back two-RBI doubles by Amanda Self and Taylor Reichard did most of the damage.
Jerrick was one of the hitting stars for the Mustangs as she was 3-for-4 with a double and a solo homer. Bennett also was 3-for-4 and Courtney Bingham was 2-for-4 with four RBIs.
The Mustangs play two more times today, taking on Northeastern State at 1 p.m. and St. Mary's at 3 p.m.
