Many individuals who are residing and working in this country without proper documentation are worried about pursuing a grant of "deferred action" status (one that allows such residents to stay in the U.S. temporarily without fear of prosecution) because they fear being put into removal proceedings if their application for deferred action status should fail for any reason.
The fact is, however, that a failure to qualify for deferred action will not necessarily result in removal. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services ("USCIS") will apply existing "Notice to Appear" guidance to any decisions about referral of cases to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency ("ICE"). Under this guidance, individuals whose requests for deferred action are denied will be referred to ICE only if they have a criminal record or there is a finding of fraud in their request. Of course, USCIS can always refer a matter to ICE if it involves and individual who is perceived to be a threat to the U.S. as well.

The chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay has been used in recent years to identify the association of histone complexes and transcription factors with specific genomic DNA targets in cells of Drosophila or yeast. As shown in Figure 1, the technique first involves the treatment of cells with formaldehyde or ultraviolet light to covalently crosslink proteins to DNA. The chromatin from the cells is then isolated and fragmented (by restriction digestion or sonication), and the protein of interest is immunoprecipitated using a specific antibody. The coimmunoprecipitated DNA fragments are then liberated from the protein by treatment with proteinase K, and the DNA fragments are identified by Southern blotting or PCR (Kuo and Allis 1999). More recently, studies have established the utility of the ChIP assay in studying histone complex associations and transcription factor binding in mammalian cells as well (Boyd and Farnham 1999). However, a potential barrier to the quantitative study of some mammalian transcription factors by the ChIP assay is their relatively low level of expression in cells, coupled with the rather large size of the mammalian genome compared to yeast or Drosophila. Southern blot detection of DNA does not offer the necessary sensitivity for such studies, nor is traditional PCR easily amenable to quantitation. However, we demonstrate here that real-time PCR wit

Oh, how awful. To dream so big, it's just...man, the general mood of this story kills (literally). Most people have probably walked out after the play feeling terrible and cheated. Damn, now I want to see it and feel that way. This isn't a horrible book. In fact, it's a realistic eye-opening view at a poor man's life. This is most likely a story of someone else's life and small bits of it apply to countless people living today. Even though there's a death at the end, the salesman doesn't wring any sympathy from the readers. Only his family mourn but barely because half of them are numb in the wake of this tragedy. In the pages winding up towards the death, there was no sense of dread or premonition but it wasn't sudden either. We see loud examples of the craziness and delusions of grandeur interspersed freely between the pages. A psychologically crazed man is hardly someone a reader can relate to or even remotely like and even worse, the rest of the cast barely measure up. I did feel a faint pity for the whole family who has been beaten, worn-down, and embittered by life. Well, judging from the lot of talk and arguments, they weren't silenced though, no, not by far. I liked that author had a knack for word arrangement and semantics because I could vividly imagine how the actors would utter it. Despite all the low ratings, this book delivers in all parts that make this brutally realistic and all the more intense. This unflinching slice of life deviates from the standard fairy tale quality of a story. In other words, Death of a Salesman might just as well be a non-fiction considering the lifelike appeals of all the characters and the palpable anger and 'spite' brimming on the surface.
I hated this when I was forced to read it in high school. In retrospect, that probably had more to do with the teacher than with the book.
Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman shows the American Dream in all its tawdry glory, but he does it in the most unsurprising way possible. I'm happy to give Miller his due: as times Death of a Salesman is highly affecting, and the play seems to capture an era of American life, but throughout it felt as though Miller was going after only low-hanging fruit.
The characters of the play seem to be little more than an amalgam of flaws stretched into a family tree. From the first lines of the play the characters showcase their lack of foresight, inability to commit, quick temper, aimlessness, greed, tendency to overspend, selfishness, dishonesty, inflated sense of self-worth, unrealistic expectations, willful blindness, propensity to blame their problems on others, pride, etc. With all of these flaws it's impossible not to see yourself in the characters at least a bit, as even the best of us has exhibited at least a couple of these flaws ourselves. I found, however, that having characters with so many flaws also limited my sympathy for them. There is only so long you can want to knock some sense into these characters before you just give up on them and watch the inevitable train wreck happen.
And that train wreck is indeed inevitable; something that would become clear early on even if the play had a different title. Willy's been bamboozled by the material American Dream of the 1940s, though him falling for it is as much his fault for never thinking about his life as it is the fault of the companies that run the biggest ads in the newspaper or the society that puts wealth on a pedestal (I never noted the play substantively addressing the idea that, as a salesman, Willy is complicit in selling this materialistic idea of life that he himself has fallen prey to). Willy seems like he might have been better off in another age (one where he didn't have time to think as much), but I'm doubtful that a man who believes "connections" and "impressions" are everything and backs get-rich-quick schemes would do very well in any age. Nevertheless, despite his flaws and his complicity in his eventual fate, it's hard not to feel for Willy as he marches to the grave, being kicked by chance and circumstance and his own nature again and again.
Death of a Salesman taps into the fear that your life won't go the way you want it to, or the realization that it hasn't gone as planned, which I imagine are almost universal feelings. Nevertheless, despite this universal core, there's something very period specific about the play. The play is set during the time when apartment buildings are replacing yards, when cities are growing so big that a traveling salesman no longer knows the people he's selling to, when it's grown all but impossible to feel special any more instead of a dime a dozen. Loman, and Miller too, seems to look at the recent past with rose-tinted glasses, while criticizing the way in which the post-WWII America had become obsessed with material possessions, where you were stuck in a rat race to keep up your lifestyle instead of doing fulfilling work, where everyone was being reduced to something less than individuals. This disaffection with the age despite participation in it, with the veneer of comfort hiding withered and dissatisfied souls, seems to encapsulate the era (or at least I get the impression that it does, I wasn't around then so I can't say for sure), and that's no mean feat.
Still, centering the text on a salesman who has seen his life wasted in the rat race seems the most boring way to encapsulate 1940s and 50s America. It's as if I wrote a book today about a late 20 something-early 30 something working for a tech startup or a large website like Google who is worried about terrorism and big data, and who feels like the world is getting to complicated to even understand, let alone change. Doesn't that already sound incredibly cliché? The other books that have encapsulated periods of America, like The Great Gatsby and Moby Dick, do so much more than just choose the most obvious archetype of the time and make him live out the most obvious criticism of the zeitgeist. Compared to those works Death of a Salesman seems, well "lazy" is perhaps too strong a word, let's go with "uninteresting."
Miller gets the responses he wants out of you with this play, but nevertheless fails to impress. It makes you feel, but more out of knee-jerk emotion than true sympathy. It shows you an era of American history, but it does so with an unimaginative plot and cast. It levels strong criticism against the world of its day, but it's such a large target that the hit is rather unimpressive. It certainly has its place, but Death of a Salesman isn't at the top of the pantheon of American literature.
I hate this entire time period of art, I get that they want to portray bleakness and whatever but why would I read a whole book to experience that when I already have depression and get to feel that 90% of my life. So I GUESS it achieves it's goal. But did I like it? F no. Get out of my life Arthur miller.
Studied this in the 6th or 7th form, I can't remember which.

Ever since it was first performed in 1949, Death of a Salesman has been recognized as a milestone of the American theater. In the person of Willy Loman, the aging, failing salesman who makes his living riding on a smile and a shoeshine, Arthur Miller redefined the tragic hero as a man whose dreams are at once insupportably vast and dangerously insubstantial. He has given us a figure whose name has become a symbol for a kind of majestic grandiosity—and a play that compresses epic extremems of humor and anguish, promise and loss, between the four walls of an American living room.
"By common consent, this is one of the finest dramas in the whole range of the American theater." —Brooks Atkinson, The New York Times
"So simple, central, and terrible that the run of playwrights would neither care nor dare to attempt it." —Time

Capital ranks high for beers
MONTPELIER The state capital recently was named the fourth best city in the country for beer lovers by the financial assistance website nerdwallet.com.
The site looked at the top 50 breweries in the country, according to the magazine Beer Advocate, and found they were clustered around four cities. Also on the list were San Diego, Calif., San Francisco and Portland, Ore.
The breweries located near Montpelier make the Beer Advocates list, the site reads. In fact, the No. 1 spot goes to the Heady Topper from The Alchemist in Waterbury, it says. Hill Farmstead Brewery has 11 different beers on the Beer Advocate list of the top 250 beers, and Lawsons Finest Liquors is at No. 28 with its Double Sunshine IPA, the site says.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A pocket park will be installed by architectural design students and community...

I couldn't disagree more.
It's not the time you put in that marks the quality, if that was the case let's make it
4 years to hit t1...
The content
in itself
of course has to be the quality.
Here is an example. Spend 3 months being locked out by the script to get 1 heal ability with a 10 min cooldown.
Or spend a week or less on a sci character and get 4 healing abilities for free with 20-30 seconds cooldown.
Now to balance the time you put in vs the payout you have to compare it to everything else you can do or get in 3 months.
And add to this like I said before, everytime you put in the marks you have 2 days of downtime. Well, what if those 2 days are the weekend and I don't have time to play during the week.
The game is now running on its terms instead of mine, I can't just pick it up when it's convenient for me.
They might aswell go all in and give us marks for doff missions so we can go afk completely

06.02.05 - By Frank Gonzalez Jr.: Zab Judah (33-2-1-24 KO's) scored a TKO 9 victory over Welterweight Champion, Cory Spinks (34-3-0-11 KO's) Saturday night in front of Cory's hometown fans in St. Louis. This redeeming win over Spinks evens their records against each other at 1-1 and invites a rubber match that might ultimately settle the score.
In December of 2003, Cory Spinks rose to fame, when he put on a boxing clinic that demonstrated how the refined application of the sweet science could tame a savage, brawling beast in the ring-Ricardo Mayorga.
The big punching and less than disciplined Mayorga lost his WBA and WBC Titles to IBF Champion, Spinks, rendering the son of former Heavyweight Champion Leon Spinks, the 'undisputed' Champion at Welterweight and a new Star on the rise..
Spinks defended his Titles successfully against Zab Judah in April of 2004, winning a close decision that saw Judah go down in the eleventh round and Spinks go down in the twelfth. Spinks had put enough rounds in the bank in that fight that even though he was the last man knocked down, he still won the decision. Had that been a 15 round Championship fight-Judah might have won by KO in the 13th round.
His second defense was against Miguel Angel Gonzalez in a twelve round shutout for Spinks. Bad match making and a questionable opponent getting a shot at Spinks Titles made for a boring, predictable fight.
Taking on Judah for a second time, in Spinks' third Title defense was not only risky but a badge of honor for Spinks, who was able to arrange for the fight to take place in his hometown of St. Louis.
Cory Spinks was undefeated in St. Louis, where his last three opponents were, Charles Ward (6-11-0), W by UD 8 in December of 2001, Jorge Vaca (65-21-2) W by TKO 7 in September of 2000 and Ken Manuel (0-17-0) W by TKO 3 in January of 2000. Zab Judah is no creampuff.
Judah entered the ring first, with little fanfare.
It was a grandiose ring entrance for Cory Spinks, who was accompanied to the ring by rap Star, Nellie, who rapped incoherently into the microphone as Spinks did his slinky dance all the way to the ring. When they got to the ropes, they sang a duet. Spinks has a strangeness about him that somehow reminds me of Miles Davis, the late, great Jazz musician.
After all the hype and anticipation, it was finally on. In the early rounds, there was a lot of action but not a lot of scoring as Spinks used his slick boxing technique to keep Judah at bay while popping his jab and landing an occasional power punch that did little damage but scored points, enough to win the majority of the first six rounds of what turned out to be a nine round contest.
Unlike last time against Spinks, Judah made one appreciable adjustment in his style; he abandoned the showboating and instead, focused solely on the mission of catching Cory with a Goodnight punch that would propel him to greatness. Zab aggressively stalked Spinks from the opening bell. Fighting a man like Spinks requires full attention, because Spinks does most of the little things right. But it would be Spinks who couldn't afford to make any mistakes this time around and Judah capitalized big time when Spinks zigged, where he should have zagged.
The Fight
Round 1
Judah aggressively took the fight to Spinks, who used his legs and his jab to keep Judah at bay. Judah hardly touched Spinks, who circled Judah and changing directions often. While neither landed much-Spinks scored more, using his jab from the outside and had control of the tempo. 10-9 Spinks.
Round 2
Spinks continued circling and popping Judah with shots from the outside, mostly jabs. Spinks scored from a few shots that landed and Judah, who couldn't catch Spinks, landed even fewer. 10-9 Spinks.
Round 3
They boxed and had a few exchanges whenever Spinks would avail himself to Judah's attack. Judah landed a three-punch combination to the head and body of Spinks, which accounted for the most damage in an otherwise stalemated round. 10-9 Judah.
Round 4
They boxed, with Judah the aggressor. Spinks eluded much of Judah's punches early in the round. Spinks was getting the better of the exchanges, as Judah still couldn't catch him. When Judah did land, his shots only grazed Spinks. 10-9 Spinks.
Round 5
Spinks was in control, boxing from the outside, popping his jab and whatever else Judah allowed when the distance was right. Midway into the round, Judah caught Spinks with a straight left to the body, giving Spinks a taste of his power. Spinks moved back outside and Judah cut off the ring, then got Spinks against the ropes and slammed him with a three-punch combo to the face that had to hurt. Zab was starting to find his rhythm and Spinks was starting to show some chinks in his Armour. 10-9 Judah.
Round 6
Judah aggressively stalked and was finding Spinks more regularly. Judah landed some grazing blows and Spinks held. Clearly, the body shot in the last round was paying dividends for Judah, who attacked Spinks' body some more during clinches. Spinks became more aggressive and scored with a straight right hand but Judah landed a big right hook to his jaw in return. Judah landed more often and his shots were more telling. 10-9 Judah.
Round 7
Judah landed a right jab to the face. Spinks clinched. When they broke, Judah landed another right hook to his jaw. The tide had turned and it was Judah in control at that point. Judah landed a left hook to Spinks face and was winning all the exchanges when they clashed. Judah threw a wild right hook that Cory ducked, and then as they were near the ropes, Spinks slipped sideways onto the canvas. It was rightly ruled a slip but Judah's shots were affecting Spinks' balance. Spinks landed a big left hook that Judah hardly noticed. Judah popped Spinks with a left hook and Spinks clinched. With seconds left, Judah missed with a left hook but caught Spinks with a follow up right, followed by another left that forced Spinks off balance. Judah continued the onslaught and Spinks' both hands touch the canvas in an attempt to save himself from going down as the bell rang. The referee, Armando Garcia, said, "No knockdown." But it WAS a knockdown. 10-8 Judah.
In Spinks' corner, his trainer says, "You can not stand around. He's not going to let you rest!" Spinks did not look comfortable on his stool.
Round 8
Judah smelled blood and went right after Spinks, who stayed on the outside and tried to box his way out of trouble, but was missing with his jab and appeared on the brink of disaster. Judah's confidence was sky high as he landed a chopping right, left combo to Spinks' head. Spinks backed up; Judah rushed him into the ropes and wailed on him until the referee broke them up. Spinks complained to the ref about something as he reset his mouthpiece and indicated something that led me to believe he felt Judah head butted him on the mouth. The ref paid him small mind. Action resumed. Spinks got aggressive but was missing most of his shots. He did manage to land a straight right to Judah's face but Judah barely noticed. Spinks wrapped his arms around Judah's waist and pushed him into the ropes. Judah raised his arms as if to ask the ref, '.what's he doing?" Spinks' body language was screaming trouble and his legs didn't have that same spring they had in the early rounds. 10-9 Judah.
Round 9
Spinks landed a big left hook then flicked his jab at Judah, who steadily stalked him. Spinks landed another left hook, they clinched, then boxed, then Judah landed an overhand left, followed by a right and then another overhand left wobbled Spinks like a Weeble that wobbles but won't fall down. Judah continued with a right, left, right, left, right, left that finally felled Spinks into the ropes in awkward fashion. For all the pummeling he took, Spinks was up on the count of four. Referee Garcia asked him, "How we doing?" and Spinks winked at him, masking the truth. Action resumed. Judah swung wildly and caught Spinks with a right uppercut followed by a left hook upstairs. Spinks tried to grab onto Judah but Judah landed a straight left that staggered Spinks. Judah got real busy and was wailing on Spinks (who was only on his feet because the ropes were holding him up). Judah motioned to the ref, but the ref paid no mind. Spinks clinched, the ref broke them and Judah landed a right that rocked Spinks. Judah looked to the ref incredulously, wondering what he had to do to get him to stop the fight before Spinks got hurt badly. But Garcia didn't budge. So, Judah whacked Spinks, who went flying into the corner ropes, practically out on his feet. As Judah came forward to finish him, the ref finally stepped in and stopped the fight. Judah was the winner by TKO 9.

BMR- is measured by monitoring respiration and finding the rate of oxygen consumed-- For Humans,dogs,cats,etc-running on a treadmill with a mask and measuring CO2 exhaled by sensors and then correlated thru expensive medical computers and programs.
BMR as a rule, is lower for older people than younger people,lower for wenches(females) than for males,lower for people in good physcial condition than for those who are out of shape and overweight. Unusal High BMR can be caused by fevers or abnormal biochemical activity.
The total number of calories a person needs is the sum of BMR and physcial activity done--long distance runners can use 10,000 calories above BMR
Energy cost of various activities
Sleeping(many on this forum) 1.2 kcal/min
sitting,reading 1.6
standing still 1.8
walking 3-6
Tennis 7-9
walking up stairs 10-18
running 9-22
for 70 kg man
Human BMR is 65kcal/hr or 1600kcal/day
So fur tennis 65 kcal/hr-BMR + ~8 kcal/min (hour ~ 480kcal/hr) total is 545 kcal/hr ~ 545 C/hr..large C=1000 small c.
The BMR machine is what Medical Doctors use to measure BMR and cost more than a Ferrari Testarossa,,so I would not give to much belief to these cheap devices claiming to measure calories burnt,,you get what you pay for,,all that glitters is not necessarily gold..woo,woo.
Where did you get those numbers??? I'm between 72-75 kg (depending on season...and level of physical activity) and a man...so pretty close to your example but I very much doubt I consume more calories walking up some stairs when compared with playing tennis.
If somebody burns more calories by walking upstairs than by playing tennis...then they are probably not playing tennis but just joking around and/or missing every other ball.

Industry experts at a seminar in Omaha, Neb., shared insights on the use of corn stover in advanced biofuel production. The increasing corn yields over the years have boosted the amount of corn stover in the fields, which is both a challenge and an opportunity for farmers, said Steve Peterson, a marketing manager for Monsanto. A survey of 500 farmers found that about 80% of them are spending more time and resources to deal with the amount of corn stover in their fields.

FORT MYERS, Florida ��A Florida police officer went above and beyond the call of duty to help a wheelchair bound man stranded in a pounding rain storm, and it was all caught on a dashboard camera.
Officer Gil Benitez works the night beat. On the night of Thursday, Aug. 14, around 8:30 p.m. he received an unusual call of a man in a wheelchair stuck in the rain.
"It was raining so hard, I couldn't even see the stop sign" Benitez said.
He found Michael Arnold sitting in his electric wheel chair on the side of the road.
"The wind picked up like crazy" Arnold said. "I got to the end of the street and everything just stopped on me."
Arnold was just a block away from his home.
Within seconds of Benitez arriving to help Arnold, lightning struck near the two. After checking himself, he finished the job he started.

IBM is working on a web-conferencing platform that allows users to collaborate through web page with audio and video functions
Featured in version 2.0 is AJAX standardisation, Kitain said. "There are a lot of JSF Ajax frameworks, and each tries to solve the same problem in different ways. We'd like to standardise on some common features in the specification," said Kitain.
A standard JavaScript API is being pondered for interaction with JSF over Ajax.
JSF and Ajax are being paired because JSF offers server-side robustness, while Ajax offers rich web application capabilities, Kitain explained. JSF proponents would like for components developed in different JSF-Ajax frameworks, such as Dynamic Faces and Ajax4jsf, to be more compatible.
Developers could use multiple components within different frameworks within the same web application, Kitain added.
Version 2.0 also seeks to make it easier to develop custom components by moving away from JavaServer Pages as JSF's view technology and moving toward Facelets. Facelets, Kitain said, is more of a lightweight technology closer to HTML syntax.
Also planned for JSF 2.0 is use of Java annotations to ease the burden of XML configurations; improved performance for the JSF state-saving mechanism, which saves the state of the UI, is another improvement.
Once JSF 2.0 is released, its proponents hope the new specification is used both in applications and tools. There are already two major implementations: Sun's Mojarra and Apache MyFaces, Kitain said.

Physician empathy is an essential attribute of the patient–physician relationship and is associated with better outcomes, greater patient safety and fewer malpractice claims.
We tested whether an innovative empathy training protocol grounded in neuroscience could improve physician empathy as rated by patients.
Randomized controlled trial.
We randomly assigned residents and fellows from surgery, medicine, anesthesiology, psychiatry, ophthalmology, and orthopedics (N = 99, 52% female, mean age 30.6 ± 3.6) to receive standard post-graduate medical education or education augmented with three 60-minute empathy training modules.
Main Measure
Patient ratings of physician empathy were assessed within one-month pre-training and between 1–2 months post-training with the use of the Consultation and Relational Empathy (CARE) measure. Each physician was rated by multiple patients (pre-mean = 4.6 ± 3.1; post-mean 4.9 ± 2.5), who were blinded to physician randomization. The primary outcome was change score on the patient-rated CARE.
Key Results
The empathy training group showed greater changes in patient-rated CARE scores than the control (difference 2.2; P = 0.04). Trained physicians also showed greater changes in knowledge of the neurobiology of empathy (difference 1.8; P < 0.001) and in ability to decode facial expressions of emotion (difference 1.9; P < 0.001).
A brief intervention grounded in the neurobiology of empathy significantly improved physician empathy as rated by patients, suggesting that the quality of care in medicine could be improved by integrating the neuroscience of empathy into medical education.

RARELY ON A WALK DOWN MAIN STREET in small-town Texas will you fail to see a billboard, marquee, or water tower proudly proclaiming, "Home of the Fighting (insert mascot here)." Here more than anywhere, school sports can do no wrong and do a lot right: They create a sense of identity and bind the community—old and young, rich and poor—together. Some teams are consistently if improbably champions. Some have a great tradition of hard-fought competition. Some are just fun to watch. The following sports give their towns—and, ultimately, all of us—something to brag about.
Football, Sealy
THINGS HAVE BEEN DECIDELY LOW-KEY since the Sealy High School Tigers lost in the first round of the state high school football playoffs last November. For other towns, just making the playoffs would be an accomplishment worth celebrating, but not Sealy, which had won four state 3A titles in a row. "The entire community was depressed," says head coach T. J. Mills. "They didn't know what to do with themselves on Friday nights and at lunchtime and at coffee." Football is practically everything to this Gulf Coast town, whose most famous native son is former NFL star (and soon-to-be Hall of Fame inductee) Eric Dickerson. Even practices draw large crowds. "I've coached in a place where they didn't care about football," Mills says, "and I'd much rather have the fans up there in the stands critiquing us. I want to coach in a town where football is important." It's so important that everyone's attention is already focused on next season. "We have one goal: to win the state championship. Anything less than that will be a disappointment." And if they don't win? Well, depression aside, you had better believe the bleachers will continue to be full. "On a Friday night, if you're not at the game, you can have your pick of what to do because everything else is as vacant as can be," says Jimmy Galvan, the managing editor of the Sealy News. "That's when my wife likes to go to Wal-Mart." When to go: Practices and scrimmages begin in August; the season runs September through November, with playoffs ending in December. For game times call 409-885-3515.
Track and Field, Giddings
"GIDDINGS HAS ALWAYS BEEN A TRACK TOWN," says Tony Francis, Sr., the coach of Giddings' L.C. (Lee County) Express Track Club, "and we do have a lot of talent around here." He's not kidding. This Central Texas community boasts several of the fastest runners in the country, student-athletes who will be getting full scholarships to some of the nation's premier college track programs and—who knows?—might even end up in the Olympics. Much of the credit goes to Francis, who starts training some of his future stars as early as age eight, but the reality is that track is just about the only game in town. "We don't have a lot to offer in Giddings besides running," he admits. "We don't have a movie theater, and our swimming pool is smaller than a basketball court." Over time, club alumni have held more than twenty national track records, and the current crop of students could well increase that number. The standouts include Jermaine Cooper, who has run the third-fastest high school time ever in the 55-meter hurdles; Lameisa Thomas, a two-time state champion in the 400-meter dash; and Jason Hodge, a sprinter who's been recruited by Olympic sprinter Leroy Burrell, who coaches at the University of Houston. "I tell the kids, 'If you give me exactly what I give you, you will succeed,'" Francis says. "And they do." When to go: Club season begins in May. The L.C. Express practices in Giddings Monday through Friday but competes mostly on the road. For times and locations call 409-542-1060.
Basketball, Canyon
WHAT'S THE FIRST THING YOU THINK OF when you think of this Panhandle town? Dust? Tumbleweeds? Try girls' basketball. "Over the past thirty or forty years," says Joe Lombard, the head coach of the Canyon High School Lady Eagles, "good, solid programs have been built, and when you start winning, it just feeds on itself. The communities have really adopted some of the teams. I don't know if we're quite on the level of football, but we're not far behind." Under Lombard, the Eagles have been a consistent 4A power; they've won two state championships in the past seven years (most recently in 1996), and at press time they were 31-0 this season. That's a good mark to have going into the playoffs, since the competition is so tough; the last two state champions were district rivals Levelland and Canyon Randall. "When we get into district play," Lombard says, "our gym is full. For a big district game at six-thirty, the gym might be full by five-thirty. We've had playoff games where we've had three thousand people." When to go: The regular season runs November through February (the playoffs run through March, but the games are not usually played in Canyon). For details call 806-656-6181.
Football, Stephenville
IF YOU MANAGE TO GET IN TO SEE A Stephenville High School football game, don't forget to bring your earplugs. The seven thousand fans who cram into Tarleton State University's stadium (where the YellowJackets play) have a noisemaking tradition that's second to none: They fill old paint buckets and propane tanks with ball bearings and rattle them throughout the game. Believe me, standing within earshot of just one of these contraptions is painful; thousands can be deafening. But the faithful love it in this town an hour southwest of Fort Worth, and, anyway, the cacophony can be forgiven as an ongoing attempt to exorcise the past. From 1953 to 1988, the YellowJackets were positively listless, with no banners of any kind to hang on the wall. During the past decade, however, there's been something to cheer about every year, including three 4A state titles in the past six years (all over rival La Marque). The difference? Head coach Art Briles, who signed on in 1988 and has been a hero in

Album Rating: 2.5album is pretty boring.
Album Rating: 4.0Excellent Review! just hope to yourself that you won't get any negs
Album Rating: 4.0battery, master of puppets and damage inc: the weakest tracks on the album
Master of Puppets is fantastic.
Album Rating: 4.0TEN reviews for this fucking record. Come on, people.
Album Rating: 4.0ZERO reviews that gave this fucking record a 3 before. Come on, people.
Album Rating: 4.0So, to recap:
Album cannot be surpased (though it's a 3 o_O), it's Metallica, good songs, bad songs, the end. Right?
The word "hyperbole" comes to mind after reading the review, it could've used a lot of condensing. Other than that, I agree with your rating, but am very confused with the justifications. It reads more like a 4 at the least.
Album Rating: 5.0Very good review considering this is your first, but it's way too long. I of course disagree, I think almost everything about this album screams classic. I'm surprised you don't like Master of Puppets or Battery that much, but judging by your criticisms of their speed and "sluggishness" I can see why. I don't see how you enjoy Disposable Heroes and not those songs though...
But Atavan! It's so fucking brutal! Playing the title track on guitar is soooo METALZ!!!!
Album Rating: 4.0TEN reviews for this fucking record. Come on, people.
yeah, but divide 2312 by 10... 231.2 ratings per review
Album Rating: 4.0Oh wow a different rating, how edgy.
metallica invented thrash didnt you know
Album Rating: 4.0Oh wow a different rating, how edgy.
yah, there is 10 ratings appliable to a musical record, and yet there is 10 reviews. Just enough reviews for every rating
I don't think it matters how many damn reviews there are, different perspectives and what not. If it's well written then who cares?
Album Rating: 4.0I don't think it matters how many damn reviews there are, different perspectives and what not. If it's well written then who cares?
another point taken. If this review was written a couple of years ago it wouldn't be getting the response it is getting
Album Rating: 4.0That's the problem - this review is unnecessary. It's not even well written, it's a jumbled mess.
Battery is awesome wtf reviewer
those triple quotation marks were totally necessary

Ayala Land sees good 2Q earnings
popular .
MANILA, Philippines—Property giant Ayala Land Inc. expects to post "good" financial results for the second quarter of the year in line with the momentum seen in the first three months.
ALI also sees good prospects for future earnings growth based on sales in the second quarter. "Sales numbers continue to be strong whether residential, malls or office. We expect the second quarter to continue to be a good quarter," ALI chief finance officer Jaime Ysmael told reporters after an ING-Financial Executives Institute of the Philippines (FINEX) forum Thursday night.
In the first quarter, ALI grew its net profit by 30 percent year-on-year to P2.76 billion as all business lines contributed higher earnings. Sales for the first three months reached P19.2 billion, equivalent to monthly average sales of P6.4 billion, comparable to the record P6.5 billion average monthly sales achieved for the whole of 2012.
The second quarter was still a "good quarter, definitely," Ysmael said. "The numbers continue to be good, consistent with what we've seen in the first quarter."
Ysmael said ALI, however, had yet to launch in the first half 50 percent of the inventory it planned to roll out for 2013. This is because more of the launches had been scheduled in the second half of the year.
"The timing, permitting process is really skewed for the second half of the year," he said.
For the first quarter, ALI's residential brands launched a total of 4,010 units with a total sales value of P10.1 billion.

Kakinada: The move of the Central Government to allow the export of non-Basmati rice on the condition that the rice export price is above 450 $ per tonne has received wide spread resentment from the shipping industry.
High price rice is available on a limited a scale.
The superfine rice varieties such as Sona Masoori, Gidda Masoori are produced in a few districts and hardly sufficient for domestic consumption.
The government move was in not beneficial either to exporters or to the farmers. It is as good as continuing the blanket ban on rice exports, remarked Suresh Kumar Sarma, the president of the Customs, Clearing and Forwarding Agents Association.
Setting hurdles
He opined that the government instead of solving the problem is complicating it. "The government should view things in proper perspective. The ban on rice exports had already lowered the nation's prestige in the eyes of the international rice traders. They lost the confidence on the Indian suppliers because of the uncertain policies of the government," he said.
Plea to government
Sarma want the government to lift the ban on rice exports immediately instead of toying with unrealistic ideas. Meanwhile the shipping industry at its emergency meeting convened by the Cocanada Chamber of Commerce here on Wednesday, had taken stock of the situation due to imposition of ban on rice exports and expressed its strong resentment over the government's callousness over the number of representations from all sections of the trade for resuming rice loading operations at the anchorage port.
Review meet
They reviewed the situation at the port where as many as 19 ships have come to a standstill for the past one week, compelling the traders to pay nearly 16000 $ as demurrage on each ship.
Move deplored
The chamber regretted that local authorities remain helpless on allowing the rice shipments which have valid permits in the absence of instructions from the Centre.
They appealed to the government to relax the ban immediately to ensure prompt shipment of Rs.400 crores worth of rice stocks lying in the port godowns.
A. Radha Krishna, the in-charge president of the Chamber presided over the meet.
V V Raghavulu Babu , Suresh Kumar Sarma , Rangarao and other leading shipping agents were present.

SCOTUS Upholds Michigan Affirmative Action amendment
The US Supreme Court has upheld Michigan's ban on race- and gender-conscious admissions policies at public universities.
The Michigan Public Radio Network's Rick Pluta reports.
Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette defended the amendment, approved by voters in 2006, that outlawed race- and gender-based affirmative action. He praised the Supreme Court decision as on target.
"Michigan voters exercised their privilege to enact laws as a basic exercise of their democratic power," he says.
Mark Fancher is an ACLU attorney who argued against the amendment.
"What the court's ruling does is it essentially affirms the tyranny of the majority," he says.
He says now it's harder for minorities to demand admissions policies to overcome a history of discrimination, while that's not true for many others, including alumni, donors, and athletes.

The Bharatiya Janata Party will field candidates in all 30 Assembly segments in the Union Territory during the coming polls, party election in-charge and Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj said here on Saturday.
Addressing a press conference after meeting party office-bearers, she said, "This time it will not be a token contest and we will register our effective presence in the Assembly."
Though alliance factor plays a significant role in elections in both Tamil Nadu and Puducherry, there is space for a third party, she said.
Combined with the anti-incumbency factor and "strong resentment" against the Central government, the atmosphere was "favourable" to the party in the Union Territory, she said.
Infighting within the local unit of Congress would favour the BJP.
Terming Union Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs V. Narayanasamy's remark that getting Central funds for the Union Territory by a non-Congress government would be difficult, Ms. Swaraj said such statements should not be taken seriously.
She urged people to give a fitting response to such "illogical" statements in the elections.
"That was a threatening tone and the statement was against the federal structure of India."
On the DMK representative donning the role of Leader of the Opposition in Puducherry Assembly, she said it was a peculiar situation where a person belonging to an ally of the ruling party was occupying the Opposition leader's chair. "A political scientist will laugh at this scenario."

Walters' 103-yard burst a nice start for special teams
"It's gratifying that my work is paying off, but Ryan's here for a reason," said Tolbert. "We root for each other. The first guy off the sideline to greet me after the touchdown was Ryan."
Though built like a boulder with legs and more accustomed to running through defenders, Tolbert also showed the maneuverability and creativity of an acrobatic. After skillfully twisting his body to catch a pass behind him inside the 5-yard line, Tolbert took a couple steps then went airborne, launching himself over a Seahawk into the endzone.
"It's just a natural reaction," said Tolbert. "I'm a little stocky dude, but I can dunk a basketball, so I can jump pretty high."
Mathews did get time with the starters and even helped set up Tolbert's score with three straight handles, ground gains of 4 yards and 1 yard and a 9-yard reception.
Spelling not graded
In a clear case of mistaken identity, there was something missing in Chargers safety Darrell Stuckey . The name on the back of his jersey was spelled "Stucky." The "e," as they say in baseball, was on the equipment crew.
"I didn't notice it until I'd come off the field," said Stuckey. "I have no idea how it happened. They just changed my name. (Grin.) It's only a minor problem. It'll get fixed."
Gamble pays off
Ostensibly, the real victims of the lockout are the undrafted free agents, denied time in mini-camps and OTA's to win over coaches. One of them, outside linebacker Darryle Gamble, used the preseason opener to make a huge impression.
Gamble made one sack, had a second negated by penalty and came so close to yet another, finishing the game with seven tackles.
"It's just me playing my game," said Gamble, who played college ball at Georgia. "I do it on a regular basis in practice, do it all the time. It's just getting a nation to see."
Nuts & Bolts
• Not dressing for the game were regulars Antonio Gates (foot), Marcus McNeill (knee), Antoine Cason (hand), along with linebackers Larry English (foot) and Antwan Barnes (muscle strain) and rookie wide receiver Vincent Brown (quadriceps).
• The opening kickoff was delivered into the end zone for a touchback – expected to be a far more common occurrence with the new NFL rules – by left-footed placekicker Ricky Schmitt. Nate Kaeding had the lone field-goal attempt, though, making good on a 32-yard field goal.

Former Pakistan captain Salman Butt claims he never asked pacers Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir to bowl deliberate no balls for cash but admitted to getting endorsement deals through his agent and alleged bookie Mazhar Majeed.
Butt made these claims in a police interview which was played to the jury hearing the spot-fixing trial here.
"There's no way I could tell Amir or Asif (to cheat). They are the two players that most teams would want to have. When we pick our team those are the first two names that we have to write," Butt said in a police interview played to the court, 'ESPN Cricinfo' reported.
The jury at Southwark Crown Court heard Butt claiming that the no balls during the Lord's Test against England were "a freak occurrence" and not bowled deliberately, something that came to light after the now-defunct 'News of the World's' sting operation on Majeed.
"I don't think anybody could influence me to cheat my country. I play this game for the love of the game and for the love of my country," Butt said.
"I have played at all levels for Pakistan and in ten years of playing for Pakistan I have never had any charge against me. This is the first time I have had a charge (against me)," he added.
"He brought me things like the Adidas contract which was a big thing to me as no other Pakistani had that," he said.

where to start..... my daughter is in daycare 2-3 days a week while me & DH work. the other few days a week she is at our home and my mom watches her. here is our problem. she is down right afraid of other adults. she will only let me or her dad hold her.. and if people attempt to touch her or get too close to her she will start crying. this includes our good friends, and her God-parents that she has seen many times. she is such a cry baby. it's almost embarassing to me because i dont know how to react when people come up to her. do i say to them "don't get close!!" like that's weird.. i dont know what to do to change her behavior, to make her more comfortable or get her used to being around adults. she does fine at day care. they tell me she is really friendly with everybody & she never cries (except every morning at drop off) she has always been some what "difficult" since she had colic, and she cries alot for us at home. it's really hard to deal with. i sometimes think she's just a brat :(
other thatn that she is healthy, happy & the only other issue i can think of is her extreme pickiness when it comes to eating. i dono.. any insight on this? im hoping it's a really longggg stage that she's going through.

'Upskirting' is legal, Massachusetts top court says
Published on Mar 6, 2014 4:35 AM
BOSTON (REUTERS) - A man who snapped secret pictures up women's skirts on a Boston subway train - a practice known as upskirting - did not violate the state's Peeping Tom law, Massachusetts' top court said on Wednesday, pointing to a loophole in current legislation.
Massachusetts law prohibits secretly filming or photographing a person who is nude or partly nude, but that does not apply to people who are fully clothed, according to a Supreme Judicial Court decision written by Justice Margot Botsford.
The ruling comes in the case of a man who was arrested by transit police in 2010 for using his cell phone to take pictures and video up women's' skirts on the subway and who fought to have the charges of voyeurism dismissed.
The law "does not apply to photographing... persons who are fully clothed and, in particular, does not reach the type of upskirting that the defendant is charged with attempting to accomplish on the MBTA," it said.
