March 2011
March 2011
With winter on the way out, March's Ideal Home Show and the Country Living Fair are great occasions for a spring clean. Elsewhere, the crews of Oxford and Cambridge take to the river, while pop sensations Katy Perry and Justin Bieber swing by. And don't forget St Patrick's Day on the 17th!
Flare PathHaymarket Theatre Royal, SW1Y 4HT
4th March 2011 - 4th June 2011
In his first production as Artistic Director of the Theatre Royal Haymarket, Trevor Nunn directs Sienna Miller in Terence Rattigan's Flare Path, a story of love, loyalty and desire set at the height of the Second World War. In a country house hotel on the edge of R.A.F. Bomber Command airfield, the women wait for news of their husbands' return from a dangerous bombing mission behind enemy lines. Miller plays the role of actress Patricia, the wife of pilot Teddy (James Purefoy), who is plunged into emotional conflict with the arrival of Peter Kyle, a renowned Hollywood star, on the same night as the fateful bombing raid on Germany. Based on Rattigan's own experiences as a R.A.F. tail gunner in World War II, Flare Path also stars Gavin & Stacey actress Sheridan Smith as barmaid Doris.
Affordable Art FairBattersea Park, London, SW11 4NJ
10th March 2011 - 13th March 2011
Since setting up shop in Battersea Park for the first time in 1999, the biannual Affordable Art Fair has become a well-loved institution in London's art scene, an event that strips away the pretension of the art world and gives buyers a chance to pick up some really great work at fair prices, ranging from £50 to £3,000. Previous years have seen some works sold for hundreds of pounds by artists who nowadays would not get out of bed for that kind of change (preferring instead to sell that same bed to Charles Saatchi as an installation for a cool six-figure sum). It's a fun, family event which is accessible to connoisseurs and the merely curious. There's a free creche, printmaking workshops and a specialist exhibition showcasing work by new artists.
Ideal Home Show 2011Earls Court Exhibition Centre, London, SW5 9TA
11th March 2011 - 28th March 2011
The Ideal Home Show is the place to find the latest in home furnishings as this famous show fills up the Earl's Court Exhibition Centre with everything you need to feather your nest - and a whole lot more besides. Celebrating its 102nd year, the Ideal Home Show is the world's largest event of its kind and never fails to surprise and inspire with home decorating ideas and the latest gagets for the kitchen. Named the Best Consumer Exhibition by the AEO Event Awards last year, the show was revamped for 2010, now featuring five show houses and eight themed sections: Ideal Home Improvements, Ideal Village, Ideal Food, Ideal Gardens, Ideal Shopping, Ideal Woman, Ideal Home Gadgets, and Ideal Interiors. Celebrity presenters including Channel 4's Home Show star George Clarke, Master Chef's Gregg Wallace, GMTV's Fiona Philips and interior designer Linda Barker are among the experts who'll be hosting workshops and handing out home improvements advice. With over 800 exhibitors there are ideas galore and products to suit all styles and tastes. March is traditionally the time for a spring clean - so why not spruce up your home while you're at it? Visit the show after 5pm on Thursday and tickets are just £5.
Six Nations Rugby: England v ScotlandTwickenham Stadium, London, TW1 1DZ
13th March 2011 - 3pm
The final fixture in a unique three-game Six Nations home stretch for England is the visit of Scotland on Sunday 13th March as both sides battle for the Calcutta Cup. The teams played out a dour 15-15 draw in Edinburgh last year and England will be keen to get back to winning ways against their neighbours at Twickenham. Scotland are perennial strugglers on the international rugby food chain but have the canny ability to pull off the occasional shock result, as demonstrated by their 21-17 win over the world champions South Africa during the Autumn Internationals. They last defeated England in 2008 and will fancy themselves to provide a stern test for Martin Johnson's men. If previous results have gone to plan, an England win here could put them on course for an epic, potentially title-deciding, showdown against Ireland in Dublin in their final fixture next week. For ticket information go to www.rfu.com.
St Patrick's Day Parade & FestivalTrafalgar Square, WC2N 5DS
13th March 2011 - 11.30am-6pm
London's Irish community have always celebrated St Patrick's Day in the traditional manner, with church services, music, dancing and plenty of Guinness and whisky. In recent years, the capital has also hosted a major weekend celebration - the UK equivalent of parades in New York and Chicago. London's parade has floats from all 32 Irish counties, with street theatre along the route which starts at Piccadilly (Park Lane side) at 12 noon, goes along Lower Regent Street, Pall Mall East via Trafalgar Square to Whitehall. The main performance stage is in Trafalgar Square with live shows, music and dance, from 11.30am to 6pm. There's also a Children's Culture Corner with storytelling, shadow animation, dance, musical instruments and poetry, and there'll be the chance to join in with the arms-by-the-sides dancing. Look out for Irish speakers roaming around the square, on hand to teach you a few phrases. Of course, the best places to celebrate are the pubs and Catholic churches throughout London, with their mix of religion, music and good cheer. Keep an eye on where the real London Irish go after the parade and you could be in for a memorable evening.
Justin Bieber: My World TourThe O2 Arena, London, SE10 0BB
14th March 2011 - 17th March 2011
A year ago not many of us had really heard of this pint-sized teenage Canadian pop star - but now it seems the world has gone Justin Bieber crazy. Two weeks after his 17th birthday, Bieber drops into The O2 Arena for three nights in March as part of his My World Tour. Bieber's debut concert tour will support his two-part debut album My World and My World 2.0 and will see the bequiffed R&B sensation perform a huge 104 dates over two legs - at a time when most people his age are concentrating on their A-Levels. We at LondonTown just hope that Bieber's performances are a bit better than his turn on The X-Factor in early December 2010, which saw a boy high in energy levels but low on miming ability - plus he had the audacity to flirt with Cheryl Cole. Still, if you've taken the world by storm at such a young age and count Usher amongst your friends, you can afford to be just a little bit cocky. He should make the most of it while he can, though: his voice is bound to break soon.
Katy PerryHammersmith Apollo, London, W6 9QH
17th March 2011 - 19th March 2011
She kissed a girl and she liked it - but she kissed Russell Brand, and that was even better. 2010 was a busy year for Katy Perry, who released her second mainstream album, Teenage Dream, recorded with Snoop Dogg, appeared on Sesame Street, The Simpsons and The X Factor, fronted her own fragrance, Purr, partied with her best friend Rihanna, and found the time to get hitched to Brand in India. Now the gospel-singer-cum-popstress is hitting the road with a massive California Dreams Tour in 2011, which calls into London at the Hammersmith Apollo for three back-to-back shows in March and Wembley Arena for one night in April, before returning later in the year at The O2 Arena in October. Expect massive production and loads of visuals - Perry promises it will be "10 times better" than her last tour - as the energetic singer ploughs through her classics, as well as recent singles California Gurls, Teenage Dream and Firework.
New Act of the Year 2011 FinalBarbican Centre, EC2Y 8DS
19th March 2011
This spring, Claire and Roland Muldoon's original comedy industry showcase, the New Act of the Year 2011 Final, is held at the Barbican for the first time. Set up back in 1987 and held yearly since 1990 at the Hackney Empire, the New Act of the Year counts amongst its former finalists the likes of Simon Amstell, Rhod Gilbert, Russell Brand, Tim Vine, Stewart Lee, Harry Hill, Catherine Tate and Andi Osho. Last year's event was dominated by musical acts with two-man improvisational comedy rap outfit Abandoman (pictured) taking the laurels and twisted pop cabaret duo Frisky and Mannish picking up third. Hosted as usual by the inimitable Arthur Smith, this year's final at the Barbican will be preceded by a series of heats which will be held at Bethnal Green's Rich Mix Art Centre every Thursday evening from 1st February to 8th March. This is a not to be missed opportunity to witness some of tomorrow's stars of comedy shine on a major stage - and with tickets as low as £10 for two-and-a-half hours worth of entertainment, it's great value for money too.
Country Living Magazine Spring FairBusiness Design Centre, London, N1 0QH
23rd March 2011 - 28th March 2011
As daffodils and snowdrops push through the ground, Spring takes charge and urges us to shake off the shackles of winter and have a change. The Country Living Magazine Spring Fair at Islington's Business Design Centre is full of ideas for sprucing up your home and wardrobe, and also encourages visitors to try their hand at something new. Workshops are free with the price of entry and include hat making, wire jewellery making, applique and biscuit decorating. Do arrive early though, as places are limited. The Country Living Theatre is another source of hands-on ideas as experts give talks on flower arranging, jam making and other home crafts. But leave time to browse the many stalls packed with cushions, fabrics, clothes, bags, jewellery, homeware and more.
Chelsea Antiques FairChelsea Old Town Hall, London, SW3 5EE
23rd March 2011 - 28th March 2011
The Chelsea Antiques Fair has been a popular annual fixture on the Kings Road since 1950. The antiques are presented against the gilded opulence of Chelsea Town Hall, with its marble columns, chandeliers and original oil paintings; a fitting backdrop for such a wealth of prized items. The fair has 38 specialist dealers this year, and a quick browse will reveal 19th and early 20th century porcelain and pottery, fine gem set jewellery, oak furniture, silverware, Chinese antiquities, Art Deco furniture, fine maps and prints, Persian carpets and rare glassware and much, much more. Prices range from £20 to the tens of thousands, so there is something to suit all budgets.
Ether Festival 2011Southbank Centre, London, SE1 8XX
24th March 2011 - 11th April 2011
The eccentric Ether Festival celebrates its 10th birthday in 2011 following a vintage year in 2010 with landmark performances of the complete works of Edgard Varese and appearances by Lou Reed and Gil Scott-Heron. Initially a festival of electronic music, Ether is now all about innovation in music, art and cross-arts experimentation. The festival has evolved over the years, blending mainstream acts such as Brian Eno, David Byrne, Peaches and Royksopp, alongside little-known acts, oddball movements and even some classical artists. Technological pioneers and musical innovators past and present come together for a series of concerts, talks and strange collaborations that often baffle as much as they astound. This year's schedule sees digital artist Klaus Obermaier return to the Southbank Centre with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and conductor Ivan Volkov to perform his 21st-century realisation of Stravinsky's early modernist masterpiece The Rite of Spring. Described in The Times as "Stravinsky for the Matrix generation", Obermaier uses computers to generate live stereoscopic images where the real and the virtual intermingle. Keep on eye on www.southbankcentre.co.uk for full programme.
The Xchanging Boat RacePutney Bridge, London, SW6 3JD
26th March 2011
England's most famous universities square off in this four-mile rowing race which inaugurates the summer season in London. This is the 157th annual Boat Race and following their win last year, Cambridge have extended their aggregate lead to 80-75 (there was a controversial dead heat in 1877). The Dark Blues of Oxford have been the dominant force since the Millennium, winning seven of the 11 outings. But last year's win by a length-and-a-third by the Light Blues denied their rivals three successive victories. While the result means little to most Londoners, it's a spectacular display of strength and teamwork, and around a quarter of a million fans line the banks of the river to roar their encouragement (add to that 120m who follow the race on TV across the world). There's a great view - and some great pubs - around Furnival Gardens on the north side of the Thames near Hammersmith Bridge. Alternatively, you might like to watch from near the start at Putney Bridge, where the big screens on both banks allow spectators to monitor the race as it heads its way around the first bend. Nearby, at Bishops Park behind the South Stand of Fulham football ground Craven Cottage, you'll find food stalls, family attractions and a large beer tent.

Almost every AAA nes title from '84-'87. Kicked off or inspired just about every games series alive today, from Mario himself to Metal Gear and Ninja Gaiden.

Xenoblade chronicles: Large beautiful worlds, that encourage, and reward exploitation: Seriously unless your just playing the story you most likely wont even have explored 2/4 of the the maps in each area.
Seems like you're just pimping out the game.
To topic, Bioshock's "groundbreaking" environmental narrative was already done in System Shock 2. Bioshock just made it more popular. System Shock 2's environmental narrative...you gotta check it out. Very engaging, more hard-hitting, and a lot less melodramatic.
And before Mass Effect's dialogue trees, there was Deus Ex's.
Rofl at the TC including Vanquish, which didn't impact a damn thing, but leaving out CoD 4. This site is hilarious...
Why is a below average developer, who hasn't created ONE acclaimed game from the ground up, allowed to repeatedly screw up the biggest name in gaming????

Ummm Vanquish did rather you like it or not, after that game came out, games have been adding a sliding mechanic into cover. It's not as intense as Vanquish's is but the sliding into cover started becoming a popular thing because of Vanquish. Vanquish might not have sold a lot, but the game concept itself definitely had a big interest. Even Cliffy B had high things to say about Vanquish (After) saying how it was a travesty such a game did not have Multiplayer) and the fact Bullet Storm itself afterwards had a Sliding Mechanic was more then enough of a hint there. Let alone more games have implemented it themselves when before it was a VERY rare thing to see (Not at all in FPS, and Red Dead Redemption sort of had something like it, and that was before Vanquish)
For COD4 the reason is simple to why I didn't add it to the list, that game was a game changer for FPS' all around this day and age. Though I can't say how COD4 changed things because honestly. Modern Warfare was what got me into the FPS area. Halo introduced me to it, but Modern Warfare solified it. Beause of that I can't just throw in some made up reason because I don't know what FPS really were like before Modern Warfare. If there was one thing I could say, I guess it'd either be using 1st person view for cinematic takes. Or Killstreak rewards, but I don't know if another game did it themselves or not.
A pretty much unknown game (yes I'm going to say this. You take a poll of 100 gamers, maybe 25 will know what game it is) made a mechanic popular... Yeah sure.
F*** yo' MLA! It's all about that APA!
Wii anything. Motion controls.

HI Gurus!

i realized that on this system the DDS tape is not recognized:

System that works: HP-UX 11.11, Ignite-UX Revision B.5.1.33
System that don't work: HP-UX 11.31, Ignite-UX Revision C.7.13.240
Is there any driver for HP-UX 11.31 to support DDS tapes?
Thanks in advance.

NBA Rumor Round Up For Thursday, May 28:
Scott Skiles: He is the favorite to become the next head coach of the Orlando Magic, however that doesn't mean Skiles won't consider other options. ESPN.com's Marc Stein reports Skiles has unexpectedly emerged as a candidate for the New Orleans Pelicans job, too.
Tom Thibodeau: The Chicago Bulls and Thibodeau are close to parting ways. No team has offered any compensation to the Bulls, reports ESPN.com's Marc Stein, and as a result, Thibodeau could be fired soon.
Anthony Davis: The New Orleans Pelicans are going through the process of identifying and interviewing candidates for their head coach job. Some top players, like Davis, would prefer to have input on the hire, but that is not the case with him. "Anthony is leaving all coaching decisions to the Pelicans' management," Davis' agent, That Foucher tells The Advocate.
Marc Gasol: Nobody thinks the starting center will leave the Memphis Grizzlies as a free agent in July and he essentially backed up that feeling from around the NBA. "I have not thought about changing teams. Everybody knows about the relationship between Memphis and all my family. It's special and it has left a mark on us. You have to put everything in the balance. The decision will be good because I will make it good," Gasol told Gigantes del Basket via translation from HoopsHype.com.
Andrew Wiggins: The Canadian was in Toronto on Wednesday as the logo's for the 2016 NBA All-Star Game were revealed. When speaking to the media, Wiggins was asked if he's going to play on the national team during the July Pan Am Games or later on at the Olympic qualifying tournament in Mexico. Wiggins would not give a definitive answer, reports the Toronto Sun. Wiggins was also not ready to commit to the 2016 Slam Dunk contest during All-Star Weekend.
New York Knicks: They own the No. 4 selection in the 2015 NBA draft and while most experts are predicting them to take Emmanuel Mudiay, there is a chance a big man goes in this spot. ESPN.com's Chad Ford writes: "Two different sources today told me the Knicks are also looking strongly at Willie Cauley-Stein. They want a strong defender in New York which explains the Justise Winslow and Cauley-Stein interest. Of course, I also think there's a good chance they just trade this pick if the right veteran comes around."
Oklahoma City Thunder: Prior to the 2014 NBA draft, many teams heard a rumor that Michigan's Mitch McGary had received a promise from a team. Well, with the 21st pick the Thunder selected the forward. Could there be another promise in 2015? ESPN.com's Chad Ford writes: "... since late last week there's been a lot of buzz among rival GMs that the Thunder promised Cameron Payne they'd take him at 14. I don't know how much of that is smoke, but he is a great fit at 14 and talent wise he may be the best pure point guard in the draft."
Brandon Bass: While re-signing with the Boston Celtics is a possibility, the free agent forward will probably move on and he has some criteria for where he's going to play next. "I want to go to a team that wants me versus me chasing any type of situation," Bass tells A. Sherrod Blakely of CSNNE.com. "During the season I like to make the best of my current situation, whatever situations I'm in. I'm not necessarily going to chase situations. I just want the best possible situation for me so that I can help the team."
Shabazz Muhammad: The Minnesota Timberwolves forward has changed agents. Muhammad signed with Landmark Sports' Rob Pelinka after parting ways with BDA's Bill Duffy, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports.
Louis Williams: The Toronto Raptors sixth-man has dropped CAA's Leon Rose as his agent and is now repped by Perennial SE's Wallace Prather, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports.
Royce White: According to Shams Charania of RealGM.com, White is hoping to make a comeback and has drawn interest from Chicago, New Orleans and the LA Clippers regarding a spot on their summer league teams.

Myleene Klass has revealed that she has been offered work in the entertainment industry in exchange for sexual favours.
The 35-year-old beauty, who shot to fame as part of TV talent show band Hear'Say in 2001, told The Mirror that she doubts she is the only person to have been offered work in exchange for sex - a problem she says that is still rife in the industry.
She said: "I don't think there's a single person in the entertainment industry that hasn't, at some point, experienced the casting couch thing – that's why there is a term for it, the casting couch. So I'm not saying this like it's the shock of the century.
"I hear stories all the time. I'm more the boss now so it happens less but people still say sleazy things to me.
"In this industry, people think they've got this green light to go ahead and say what they like because there's no retribution. That's how it feels, anyway.
"If someone says something dodgy, it's then a case of 'oh, I was just joking' or 'I'm a bit mad like that, a bit quirky'.
"But I can still get fired, very publicly… there should be boundaries."
Myleene is the proud parent of her two daughters Hero, 2, and Ava, 5, without a day going by when she isn't papped doing the school run with the two in tow.
The yummy mummy does admit, however, that she is a strict mum, revealing that she would never want to spoil her children.
She said: "I'm very strict. I won't allow them to be those sort of spoilt kids because it won't do them any favours.
"I want to be cool mum but you just can't be, not all the time. Someone has to hold the reins.
"Unless it's for dress up, little girls wearing heels is an abomination.
"If make-up is treated as dress up, fine. But if it's a case of 'you are only pretty with it' then it is extremely damaging.
"You're trying to teach your child self-acceptance, yet you're saying she's only good enough if her eyelashes are a certain length. I don't agree with it."

UK central bank panel remains cool on stimulus
Wednesday - 12/19/2012, 4:43am EST
LONDON (AP) - Minutes to the Bank of England's last rate-setting meeting show little enthusiasm for another monetary stimulus.
They show that David Miles was the only one of the nine-member Monetary Policy Committee to back an expansion of the asset purchase program, which has injected 375 billion pounds ($611 billion) into the British economy since March 2009. The majority believe it is too early to judge the effects of the latest 50 billion pounds stimulus.
All nine agreed to keep the Bank's base lending rate at the all-time low of 0.5 percent.
The minutes, published Wednesday, also suggest that the rate-setters are unsure about the underlying state of the British economy as one-off events such as the Olympic Games cloud the picture.
Britain emerged from a nine-month recession in the third quarter.

UN wants to use surveillance drones in Congo
Tuesday - 1/8/2013, 10:09pm EST
By EDITH M. LEDERER
Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS (AP) - The United Nations outlined its case to the Security Council Tuesday to use surveillance drones in Congo for the first time but ran into opposition from neighboring Rwanda which is believed to be backing rebels who recently took control of many towns in the conflict-wracked east.
U.N. peacekeeping chief Herve Ladsous asked the council to support the deployment of drones to help the more than 17,700 U.N. peacekeepers and over 1,400 international police in the vast country carry out their main mission of protecting civilians, U.N. diplomats said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the meeting was closed.
Congolese army troops were unable to halt the M23 rebels who took control of many villages and towns in the mineral-rich east and briefly held the key eastern city of Goma before withdrawing in early December. The peacekeeping force _ the largest of the U.N.'s 15 global operations _ did little to protect the tens of thousands of civilians, many of whom fled their homes.
Brieuc Pont, the spokesman for France's U.N. Mission, tweeted that "the U.N. in Congo needs additional and modern assets, including drones, to be better informed and more reactive."
But Rwanda's U.N. Ambassador Eugene-Richard Gasana said his government and others have legitimate concerns about the use of unmanned aerial vehicles, especially before an assessment from the U.N. Secretariat later this year on the legal, technical and financial implications of using UAVs.
"It might have a precedence on other countries," Gasana told several reporters after the meeting. "We owe them a kind of explanation. It is about human beings, it is not about `Star Wars.' We need this new technology, but at which cost?"
Drones are being increasingly used in Western military operations but there are suspicions, especially in developing nations, that they will become a new intelligence-gathering tool for the West.
Rwanda raised its concern in the closed session that drone inspections would make the U.N. a belligerent force, which wouldn't contribute to the safety of U.N. peacekeepers, one diplomat said. Diplomats said Pakistan, where U.S. drones have been used against suspected terrorists, also voiced concerns about their use in Congo at the council meeting.
The diplomats said France, Britain, the U.S. and other Western countries back the deployment of drones in eastern Congo, saying it would enhance the ability of peacekeepers to track armed groups and help protect U.N. forces from ambushes. U.N. officials say drones could also be useful in other African conflicts and possibly in the search in Central Africa for leaders and members of the Lord's Resistance Army, a brutal gang of jungle militiamen headed by warlord Joseph Kony which has been accused of carrying out massacres, mutilating victims and using children as soldiers and sex slaves.
Eastern Congo has been engulfed in fighting since the 1994 Rwanda genocide, in which at least 500,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus were slaughtered by Hutu militias before a Tutsi-led rebel army took power in Rwanda. More than 1 million Rwandan Hutus fled across the border into Congo, and Rwanda has invaded Congo to take action against Hutu militias there. The exploitation of Congo's mineral resources continues to exacerbate conflict and instability on the ground.
The M23 rebel group is made up of hundreds of mainly Tutsi soldiers who deserted the Congolese army in April. A U.N. group of experts reported in November that M23 is backed by Rwanda, which has provided them with battalions of fighters and sophisticated arms, like night vision goggles. Rwanda denies supporting and arming the rebel group.
Since withdrawing from Goma, M23 has taken steps toward negotiating with the Congolese government.

With Stockdale's elite middle distance runners Blake Haney and Connor Fisher not around, it was a couple of Highland boys sprinters that stole the show at Friday's Patriot Games.
The Scots Elijah Baier and David Garcia Jr., combined to win five races, several of them in blistering times.
Baier posted new Central Section best marks in winning the 100-meter (10.84) and 200-meter (21.97) sprints, while Garcia edged Ridgeview star Ivan Gonzalez to finish first in the 400-meter run.
Sandwiched around all of their individual victories, Baier and Garcia helped Highland take both boys relay races.
"I'm just so excited," Baier said. "I've been waiting for this meet all year. I didn't think I could do it but I should have never doubted himself because I proved I that I could run these times. I'm just so pumped that I did it today."
Haney, Fisher, and Asia Chesley, one of the best girls high jumpers in the section, were all out of town on Friday competing at the prestigious Mount SAC Relays.
The Mustangs' Kiare Tanner, the section leader in the triple jump, also did not participate in the Patriot Games because she is still "banged up" according to Stockdale coach Dave Lonsinger.
"She is just getting some rest and recovery time but she'll be back soon," Lonsinger said.
While four of Stockdale's biggest stars didn't take part in the meet at Liberty, many of the section's best track and field athletes were on hand.
And many of them turned in outstanding performances as four meet records fell and several of the section's top marks were bettered too.
Independence's Brena Andrews time of 24.66 seconds in the 200 both broke a Patriot Games record and gave her the section's fastest time in that event this year.
Earlier in the day Andrews ran the 100 in 11.93 seconds, which would have been the top mark in the section this year had it not been wind aided. Andrews set the meet record in the 100 last year (11.79).
The Independence speedster began the meet by running the second leg of the Falcons' 4x100 relay team, which set a new meet record with a time of 47.53. The old mark of 48.32 seconds was set in 2009 by Bakersfield High.
"I just wanted to run really well today," Andrews said. "We've been training a little different this year because we want me to peak at the right time. I've been really wanting to run those fast times but I understand I can't. I'm not going to be as fast because I haven't been getting the leg turnover going yet. But I just really wanted to try my best today."
Liberty's Morganne Hill was equally as impressive. The sophomore set a new meet record in winning the 300 hurdles (43.06) not long after lowering her own section best mark in the 100 hurdles this year from 14.87 to 14.82.
Her 300 hurdles time, No. 1 all-time in the section for sophomores, is just six-one hundredths of a section off the Liberty school record.
"I'm tired but excited at the same time," Hill said. "It was a pretty good day. It's good weather so my legs are feeling good. It's been a good hard week of training but I'm still trying to improve and get that 42 (second time in the 300 hurdles)."
Hill wasn't the only hurdler to do well on Friday. On the boys side Frontier's Gabriel Gaeta lowered his own section-best time in the 300 hurdles from 39.86 to 39.54 seconds.
"I got beat in 110 (hurdles)," Gaeta said. "I just put that out of mind and focused on the (300 hurdles) race. Just made sure all my steps were down and finished hard."
Besides Baier, Andrews, and Hill, there were several other multiple event winners including Colton Foster of Frontier (boys shot put and discus), BHS' Scotty Newton (boys long jump and triple jump) and Rae Blansett of Liberty (girls shot put and discus).
Foster broke a meet record and topped his own section best mark this year in the shot put with a winning throw of 58-feet, two inches.
While Foster was away from the track dominating the boys throwing events, Baier and Garcia were busy on it winning races.
Garcia leaned at the finish line to beat Gonzalez, who didn't compete in his signature event the 800 meter run.
Gonzalez is scheduled to run the 800, an event in which he currently has the section's top time this year (1:52.53), at the Mt. SAC Relays today.
"Me and my coach chose not to run the 800 today because we wanted to work on speed, on getting out for the 800," Gonzalez said. "Because I'm going to need to get out (fast) in the 800 at state."

Income Security:
Older Adults and the 2007-2009 Recession
GAO-12-76: Published: Oct 17, 2011. Publicly Released: Oct 18, 2011.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-7036
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The recession of 2007 to 2009 has been the most severe in this country since the 1930s. After adjusting for inflation, gross domestic product declined by 5.1 percent and the national unemployment rate peaked at 9.5 percent. While the recession officially ended in June 2009, our economy has experienced a weak recovery, with unemployment still above 9 percent. While the recession has affected all age groups, older adults--particularly those close to or in retirement--may face a greater burden because they may not have the same opportunities to recover from its effects. For example, older adults--generally those 55 and older--may have insufficient time to rebuild their depleted retirement savings due to sharp declines in financial markets and home equity, and they may experience increased medical costs. Also, as our previous work has shown, older workers are less likely to be unemployed than workers in younger age groups, but when older workers lose a job they are less likely to find other employment. These challenges have intensified older adults' concerns about having sufficient savings now and adequate income throughout retirement. Given your interest in the status of older adults and the effect of the recent recession, we examined the following: (1) What changes have occurred in the employment status of older adults, generally those 55 and older, with the recession? (2) How have the incomes and wealth of older adults in or near retirement changed with the recession? (3) What changes have occurred in the costs of medical care, the purchasing power of Social Security benefits, and mortality rates for older adults in recent years?
(1) Since 2007, unemployment rates doubled and remained higher than before the recession for workers aged 55 and older. While these rates were not as high as for other age groups, of more concern is that once older workers lose their jobs they are less likely to find other employment. In fact, the median duration of unemployment for older workers rose sharply from 2007 to 2010, more than tripling for workers 65 and older and increasing to 31 weeks from 11 weeks for workers aged 55 to 64. In addition, the proportion of older part-time workers who indicated they would prefer full-time work nearly doubled during this time. Unemployment rates increased for all groups during the recession and remained lowest for whites. (2) Household income fell by 6 percent for adults aged 55 to 64, but increased by 5 percent for adults 65 and older. Median household net worth fell during the recession for older adults. Poverty rates increased for adults aged 55 to 64, but declined for those 65 and older, while low incomes were more prevalent in older age groups than in younger ones. In addition, poverty rates were higher than the rates based on official levels when medical costs were factored in. The percentage of adults who began drawing Social Security benefits at age 62 rose during the recession, as did awards of Social Security Disability Benefits and applications for Supplemental Security Income benefits. Food insecurity also rose among older adults during the recession. (3) Medical costs continued to rise faster than other costs, and older adults continued to spend more on medical care than those in younger age groups. The purchasing power of Social Security benefits was maintained with cost-of-living adjustments and, for those receiving benefits in 2009, was increased with a one-time $250 Recovery Act payment in 2009. Mortality rates for older adults continued a long-term decline during 2007 through 2009.

Singapore Budget 2014: New $1.5m fund for VWOs keen to use arts in programmes
Published on Mar 11, 2014 8:07 PM
Voluntary welfare organisations (VWOs) keen to use the arts in programmes for their beneficiaries can soon tap a new fund from the Government.
Some $1.5 million will be set aside to support them, said Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Culture, Community and Youth Sam Tan in Parliament on Tuesday.
The National Arts Council, which will administer the fund, will match VWOs interested in working with artists to develop arts programmes for "wellness, intervention or rehabilitation", said Mr Tan.
It will work with the Community Development Councils to ensure that the projects are "coordinated and have maximum impact".

Sharon Stone defends Moss after cocaine scandal
By Kerstin Gehmlich
PARIS (Reuters) – Actress Sharon Stone defended Kate Moss
on Tuesday and implicitly criticized companies who were parting
with the British supermodel after a newspaper alleged Moss had
snorted cocaine.
The cocaine scandal has prompted two fashion houses —
Britain's Burberry and Swedish-based Hennes and Mauritz — to
sever ties with Moss.
France's Chanel said it would not renew her contract when
it expired this month, but did not comment on whether the
decision was linked to the cocaine scandal.
"I'd like to say as for Kate Moss, I understand that she
has apologized and is changing her life. And I think that that
is the most important thing that's happened," Stone, the star
of sultry thriller "Basic Instinct," said in Paris.
"I think that we have to be aware that people are allowed
to make mistakes in their life," she told a news conference at
which she was being presented as the new face to promote
Christian Dior's Capture Totale anti-ageing line.
Stone implicitly criticized the fashion houses who had
parted with Moss, after Britain's Mirror tabloid featured
grainy pictures that apparently showed the 31-year-old model
taking large quantities of cocaine.
"Whether or not a house stands with her or not through it
says more about the house than it does about her," Stone said.
"Because someone who doesn't allow someone to fail and
change and grow — it doesn't say very much about them, in my
The actress, 47, who made headlines earlier this year for
raising $1 million in five minutes from business tycoons at the
Davos World Economic Forum for African children, earned loud
applause for her comments.
"If you are in here and haven't made a mistake, I'd like to
meet you because I've been waiting for Jesus — and today would
be the day," Stone said to loud laughter.
Moss, whose annual earnings from modeling are estimated to
be in excess of 4 million pounds, apologized last month to
friends, family and business associates for her behavior.
"I take full responsibility for my actions," Moss said in a
statement. "I also accept that there are various personal
issues that I need to address and have started taking the
difficult, yet necessary, steps to resolve them."
Moss, who has a three-year-old daughter, was discovered by
a modeling agency as a 14-year-old schoolgirl, and has graced
the covers of countless magazines.

Perhaps with whispers of photoshop dancing in her head, Britney Spears took to Instagram on Wednesday to show off a shot of her figure, which looked taut in a sweater and panties — and that's it! — after the pop starlet said she used her summer months to tone up.
"Amazing amazing shoot with @jefflipsky today! Been working hard this summer!" she wrote. "So ready to bring it for the next round of #PieceOfMe shows next week."
PHOTOS: Sun's Out Guns Out! Female Celebs Show Off Their Muscular Arms & Bodies
The "Toxic" singer's sexy shot might have been in direct response to recent claims that promotional images for her lingerie line were photoshopped to make her seem as flawless as possible.
After the images were released, industry expert Giles Fabris, CEO and Director of Services for LookBetterOnline, told Radar exclusively that he believed the images of the 32-year-old singer had "been retouched."
PHOTOS: The 20 Most Shocking Celebrity Plastic Surgery Transformations
"While Britney Spears is obviously naturally a beautiful woman, when it comes to modeling, most modeling shots are retouched," Fabris said. "And it creates an image that often is realistically impossible for most women to attain. Any minute skin imperfection is covered up.
"They'll take it to the degree of flawless, every minute wrinkle and line will be erased."

Synopsis: Looking for work, Aaron (Patrick Brice) comes across a cryptic online ad: $1,000 for the day. Filming service. Discretion is appreciated. Low on cash and full of naiveté he drives to a cabin in a remote mountain town where he meets Josef (Mark Duplass), his cinematic subject for the day. Josef is sincere and the project seems heartfelt, so Aaron begins to film. But as the day goes on, it becomes clear that Josef may not be who he says. [Synopsis courtesy of SXSW]

Evaluating Chris Tanev

The men of Pass it to Bullis are in possession of amounts of awesome far exceeding the legal limit.ReplyDelete
Great post - though provoking, objective, technical and still entertaining. Bravo. Like you said, Tanev deserves the Canucks sweater, but would probably be better severed and serve better in a Moose sweater come a healthy D (knock on wood).
from that interview it sounded, to me,that AV said he wouldn´t be demoted for the rest of the regular season because of the call up situation. i´m sure that once the playoffs start and if the canucks have 7 healthy D, then he will get sent downReplyDelete

Thing is...its that lack of size that makes him so good.ReplyDelete
Well, as a defenseman, absorbing hits is part of the position. You call it physical punishment, but have you ever seen him, this year...labouring to get to the bench?
No. Because he knows how to take a hit. He had to learn that skill very early as a relative midget. Sure the physical will be ramped up, and he needs to bulk up.
But its never been a concern of mine yet this season. Taking a hit in the correct manner is a hugely underrated skill...one he has in spades...

Your comment reminded me of this Bill Nye video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXdb3ghAGOU
That song could be Tanev's theme song.
I feel like such a dork right now.

Tanev having a limited role with the team during the playoffs isn't necessarily a bad thing.ReplyDelete
Look at how Grabner was used in the playoffs last year: as a 4th liner with limited playing time. However he was able to take in the experience and learn from the veteran players and I think that has contributed to his success this year.
Tanev won't get limited time in the playoffs; he'll get no time in the playoffs. Unless the Canucks experience even further catastrophic injuries to their defense, there's no way that Tanev will play ahead of Edler, Bieksa, Ballard, Rome, Alberts, Ehrhoff, and Hamhuis. He's 8th on the depth charts.ReplyDelete

Pierzynski's HR pushes Rangers past Angels 7-6
NOTES: Hamilton hit in the No. 5 spot just three times last season for Texas, but went 4 for 10. Opponents have walked Pujols five times this season to get to Hamilton, including twice on Sunday. Los Angeles manager Mike Scioscia said Hamilton's move to the fifth spot is likely a platoon with Trumbo for now, after Hamilton went 1 for 19 in the first three weeks against left-handers. ... The Angels put RHP Tommy Hanson on the bereavement list and recalled RHP David Carpenter from Triple-A Salt Lake. Hanson (2-1) is likely to miss his scheduled start Wednesday against Texas, and RHP Jerome Williams is likely to replace him. ... Texas reliever Joakim Soria won't pitch in the majors until at least late June after he strained a pectoral muscle while throwing batting practice in Arizona.
