Gut Feel
Love and power among the 'conquistadors'
More News from Minyong Ordoñez
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
It was 1571. Balanghay Banahao (now Majayjay, Laguna). Gat Yantok fretted for days about the safety and freedom of his balanghay, the ancestral village of my tribe.
The Spanish conquistador Juan de Salcedo had just taken over the neighboring balanghay (now Liliw, Laguna) in an amicable way.
Gat Yantok was skeptical. After being welcomed and fed by their Liliw hosts, the brash conquistador ordered the confiscation and burning of anitos.
At break of dawn, Salcedo and his attack forces took the jungle trek to Gat Yantok's balanghay near the Dalitiwan river rapids (now a resort). The conquistador, invincible in his metal and battle gear, signaled battle plans against Gat Yantok's men, who were waiting in the trenches by the Dalitiwan riverbanks.
The battle-ready Spaniards blew their ear-splitting horns, beat the hell out of their war drums, and fired their muskets, shattering the peace and quiet in Dalitiwan. Gat Yantok's itak-wielding men were no match for the Spanish escrimadors, musket gunfire and full metal armors.
Gat Yantok and his men retreated toward the dark forests of Banahao volcano.
Youngest 'conquistador'
1572, Maynilad. Juan de Salcedo, 22, was the youngest and most daring conquistador in the Far East. He had just pacified the Bicol region and discovered gold in Paracale.
Upon his return to Maynilad, he was ordered by Miguel Lopez de Legaspi to establish the vassalage of Northern Luzon. The conquistador's vainglory was visible and palpable, inside and outside the palisade.
But Juan de Salcedo's love affair was tragic. Legend had it that he was smitten with Lady Gandarapa, niece of Lakandula, who begrudgingly paid allegiance to Legaspi.
That afternoon, before he sailed for Luzon, Salcedo stood on a rock atop the mouth of the Pasig River, his eyes fixed toward Bangkusay where his love, Gandarapa, stood by the seashore, exotic in her long raven hair, a kayumangging kaligatan beauty (reminiscent of the svelte Miriam Quiambao when she was Miss Philippines, or the buxomy, round-eyed and seductive Elizabeth Oropesa when she was a young starlet).
Tragically, Salcedo and Gandarapa's love became taboo when Legaspi objected and Lakandula disapproved.
Before he sailed for Vigan, Juan de Salcedo spent nights yearning for Gandarapa's tight embrace and passionate kisses.
As Salcedo's army marched through Luzon, the conquistador was all hubris. Conquistadors were the iconic heroes of the Spanish throne in Europe. They tamed wild frontiers and conquered tribal civilizations in the North and South Americas. In 1520, Hernando Cortez conquered the Aztecs' kingdom in Mexico. In 1532, Francisco Pizarro ruled the Incas of Peru. Earlier in 1513, Ponce de Leon created a legend by searching for the Fountain of Youth in the jungles of Florida. In the exotic Far East, Ferdinand Magellan circumnavigated the world, but perished on the beach in Mactan.
Juan de Salcedo assumed the stuff of legend in Asia.
1573. Vigan. Salcedo proclaimed Vigan the center of Hispanic rule in Northern Luzon. With Cebu as the center in the Visayas, and Maynilad as the seat of government, Spain's rule of the archipelago was complete.
The Spanish rule was seriously threatened when the Chinese pirate, Limahong, attacked Maynilad in 1574. Limahong's attack forces were awesome—62 warships, 2,000 oarsmen, 2,000 warriors and thousands of women fighting crew.
Limahong's pirates
In the bloody battle, Martin de Goiti, the resident conquistador, was killed. Salcedo rushed to Maynilad to launch offensive battles against Limahong's pirates. Capitan Sojo, a Japanese officer in Limahong's army, was killed. The pirates escaped and sailed back to China.
Salcedo was rewarded with a huge encomienda in Vigan in 1576. Pomp and power were his. But his forbidden love with Gandarapa caused him loneliness and frustration.
Fil-Hispanic novelist Nick Joaquin wrote that Gandarapa managed to send lotus flowers and a missive to Salcedo before he sailed for Vigan. Gandarapa vowed her undying love and faithfulness. After that, the lovers lost contact.
Legaspi, a hard-nosed racist, intercepted and burned Salcedo's letter to Gandarapa. A false rumor circulated that Salcedo married the daughter of the King of Laoag.
When Salcedo returned to Manila to claim Gandarapa's love, she had long been dead of a broken heart.
Salcedo, desolate and grieving, returned to Ilocos. During one of his expeditions, he caught malaria and ran a burning fever. Finding a stream, he drank and drenched himself with icy cold water. Hours later, he convulsed and died.
In his breast pockets were found dried leaves of lotus flowers Gandarapa gave him. Juan de Salcedo, conquistador, was dead at 27.
2012. Dalitiwan Resort, Majayjay, Laguna. Last summer, I brought my grandsons Pablo, Carlos and Toby to Dalitiwan river rapids to enjoy the thrill of romping and splashing in its icy cold pristine waters.
In Dalitiwan, I can hear the piercing war cries of Gat Yantok and his men, the clanking of their bolos hitting the steel shield of Juan de Salcedo whose swift escrimador thrust can pierce the heart of my (I presume) ancient ancestors.
Ah bless them, my freedom-loving tribe. So raw and yet so brave!

April 17, 1915–June 16, 2003
HENRY M. HOENIGSWALD, professor emeritus of linguistics at the University of Pennsylvania, died on June 16, 2003, in Haverford, Pennsylvania. Henry began his career as a classicist. He contributed articles on Etruscan and Latin and important studies in Greek phonology, morphology, and metrics, the last of which he completed just before his death. He was, in addition, a well-versed Indo-Europeanist and contributed to Indo-Iranian linguistics; further, during the Second World War, he was engaged in modern Indo-Aryan and produced a handbook of Hindustani. Henry's greatest contributions to linguistics, however, are of a more general theoretical nature. He was a major figure in seeking to understand and clarify the principles that underlie great work in historical-comparative linguistics, especially as practiced by the nineteenth-century neogrammarians and their successors. Henry contributed fundamental studies in these areas, including an early article on sound change and its relation to linguistic structure, a basic study of the procedures followed in phonological reconstruction, an equally fundamental study of internal reconstruction, and a definitive monograph on language change and linguistic reconstruction.

It's been a busy week in radio, so let's get to the news and views. Headliners are KAMP and KROQ, and KFWB.
Stryker, who joined AMP Radio 97.1 FM in afternoon drive one year ago, has returned to his previous home, KROQ/106.7 FM. He's on 4-7 p.m. weekdays.
"Stryker is a star in any format, but his true passion lies with KROQ," said Kevin Weatherly, senior vice president of programming for CBS Radio and program director for KROQ, AMP, and JACK 93.1 FM. As reported on www.LARadio.com, he said Stryker has "done an outstanding job helping us launch AMP, but as we talked about his future over the past few months we both agreed his return to KROQ was the right move for him, the station, and the listeners who have come to know him through his more than 10 years in the market." The move is tied to a multi-year contract extension.
Joining AMP is Michelle Boros, who is on 10 a.m.-3 p.m. She hosted and programmed XM's 20 on 20. Booker moved to afternoons.
The new KROQ line-up: Kevin & Bean, 5:30-10 a.m.; Kat Corbett, 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.; Sluggo, 1-4 p.m.; Stryker, 4-7 p.m.; Nicole Alvarez, 7-10 p.m.; Loveline - Dr. Drew, 10 p.m. - midnight.
KFWB/980 AM is making what could be a really smart move, trading rants for money news, starting March 15.
Dave Ramsey's financial advice show will air 9 a.m.- noon and Laura Ingraham will be on 10 p.m.-1 a.m. While KFWB's overall talk ratings look dismal, the station says it is gaining in its target demo: women age 25-54.
Ed Krampf, senior vice president, said KFWB's weekly listening increased 33 percent in that age category. "The economy and personal financial management are the most important subjects on our minds and Dave really hits a nerve when advising people how to cut their debt," Krampf said. "He will be a perfect lead-in to Dr. Laura (Schlessinger) because money is so integral to any relationship and each one brings their personal expertise into play."
Victor Rojas joins the Angels broadcast team, replacing the late Rory Markas. He will call games on Fox Sports West and KCOP. ... KUSC's Jim Sveda is profiled in the current Auto Club Westways magazine. ... KCSN/88.5 FM in Northridge has dropped classical for the Triple A or adult album alternative format. ... Broadcasting pioneer Gene Chenault died Tuesday at age 90. Chenault and partner Bill Drake they turned out excellent radio music specials tailored for FM stations. ... Classic hits KRTH/101.1 FM has a concert coming up March 27 at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Irvine. ... KPFK/90.7 FM has suspended online music, citing licensing issues....
January Arbitron Portable People Meter ratings notes:
KFI/640 AM: Bill Handel, John and Ken beat their talk competitors. Tim Conway Jr. started midway through the ratings period, said program director Robin Bertolucci, and in the weekly numbers "was off to a great start."
Smooth adult contemporary KTWV/94.7 FM The Wave was up, thanks to fine-tuning of the playlist by program director Jhani Kaye.

But the main bad guy, Big Jim Rennie, is basically a liberal's view of a typical Republican leader.
Hmmm.....I guess I never associated him with any party personally. I saw him as the proverbial big fish in the little pond type guy who wouldn't want big Govt. interfering with him in any way shape or form.
He hates the current president because he thinks he's Muslim, he hates government interference in people's lives but seems to have no problem being a lying, stealing, businessman.
Yes, the comments against Obama were definitely present, but I think it was more about Jim being a small town redneck who a bit racist and I certainly didn't think that had a thing to do with which political party he aligned with. I think he'd be happy with no govt. and just let him run his own show his own way.
He eats too much and would resent some government person telling him what he's allowed to eat.
So only republicans eat too much and liberals enjoy the govt. telling them what they're allowed to eat??
I think you're painting with a pretty great big stereotypical brush here my friend.
He convinces people of his good intentions not by logic but by emotion, by using popular canned slogans about family values and America and power of the people, just to distract them from how evil he is.
I'm confused......are we talking about Rennie or Obama here....
(I'll hand this to Obama, he's an incredibly good speaker and very popular with my generation and below because he does make such a good celebrity.........there's absolutely no denying his appeal.)
Bottom line, I saw Rennie as neither party and quite frankly I think he'd take exception to any govt. telling him what he can or can't do whether that be Right-wing, liberal, Tea Party or somewhere in between. He's just your average small town big fish from my perspective, but I'm not into politics and it's rare (outside of Avatar) that I notice political slants to things myself)
Faced with the choice between changing one's mind and proving there is no need to do so, almost everyone gets busy on the proof.

DOBSON — Surry Central finished 2-2 with North Forsyth, the third tie in four games for the soccer team.
The visiting Vikings scored first, but the Golden Eagles scored once in each half to take the lead 2-1. The Eagles held that lead for about 15 minutes before North Forsyth tied it with 18 minutes left. Neither team could break through the rest of the way.
Central played to a 2-2 tie with West Iredell, 1-1 tie with Mount Airy and now this one, noted head coach Blake Roth.
The coach told his players that if they don't like this feeling of not earning a win, then they need to get better.
Yes, this is a young team, Roth said, but the underclassmen are playing heavy minutes and have to develop quickly for the team to be successful.
Sure, the team is undefeated through four matches, but the state determines playoff eligibility and seeding through winning percentage, not tying percentage, he said.
Roth said he just found out that Carver will not be fielding a team this season, taking away two potential conference wins too late in the season to find a replacement team.
The Eagles were the only local team in action on the national holiday, and both teams were certainly laboring under the upper-80s heat and bright sunlight.
Soccer doesn't have timeouts like other sports, so the officials called their own water break midway through the halves so that players could stay hydrated.
The game was only seven minutes old when the Vikings pushed the ball ahead and broke through the defense. The outside attacker showed great speed and foot skills as he slid the ball across the front of the box to a crashing teammate.
The Eagles got their own breakthrough later in the half.
Jose Avalos beat a defender to the ball and raced up the right sideline. He curled around in the corner and could have made an attempt himself. Instead, he played the ball off to Ramiro Gonzalez who finished it.
A few minutes into the second half, the Eagles threatened on a similar play.
This time it was Arturo Lopez who streaked up the left side.
The Eagles had two players crashing toward the goal, so Lopez played the ball over.
A North Forsyth player rushed back toward the goal, trying to get to the ball, but as he sprinted full speed, he accidentally knocked it into his own goal.
Roth said he feel bad for the kid because he was just hustling as hard as he could.
Colombia's Andres Escobar did the same thing in the '94 World Cup, recalled Roth. When the player returned to his country, a drug lord's driver gunned Escobar down in a parking lot. Hopefully this poor kid gets more sympathy than that.
Central held the lead for about 15 minutes before a mistake gave the Vikings a corner kick.
One of the mids was trapped and wanted to play the ball backward to a teammate, said Roth. However, the player didn't communicate with his defender, and the pass rolled right out the back line for a corner kick.
North Forsyth converted in the 62nd minute.
You can't blame that score on the keeper, who was trying to stop a hard-hit ball at close range, said Roth. It was the lack of talking before that which cost the team. Against a good opponent, it comes down to which squad makes the fewest mistakes.
Roth said he wants to see his team do a better job in the midfield today at Elkin.

I've been using this app for a while now but lately I just haven't been able to get the compression just right for some reason. It would be nice if it had an image generation feature for simple things like an optional icon and text to display (I.e., user info). It would take a lot of complication out of things.
(32 stars)
Needs updated. Newer bootloaders aren't compatible. Please update! Miss my custom boot images....
(32 stars)
Not a big deal, but Google Play Store actually says that this works with the Nexus 7, which is why I downloaded this. I see that Ezekeel wrote compatibility notes is the description, but heads up as it definitely does NOT work with the 7. Would be awesome if you updated it though! Giving it 5 stars cause I already have it on my Nexus and it rocks!

It does what it says, and i haven't seen another app do the same thing. I would love to see it work on the latest Galaxy Nexus bootloader.

Needs to be updated to work with the newest Galaxy Nexus bootloader. :(

I made images in Photoshop to the maximum file size. They do change easy enough but the images display at bottom of screen just above the lock image and do not cover the full screen. Not too impressed with it. and I messed with it for too long to get a refund.

MLB says slingbox is Illegal
Posted 01 June 2007 - 08:30 AM
Posted 01 June 2007 - 08:57 AM
It's no longer about the fans who love and support the sport, it's all about the
team owners trying to squeeze every last dime out of the sport. Now they not
only want to control where we get to see our favorite teams, but these greedy,
filthy- rich robber-barons want to control (read limit) when the fan gets to see
his games, if at all. Next thing, they'll be trying to stop fans from recording the
games. The idiots might even try to keep us from watching baseball altogether.
Talk about killing the Goose that laid the Golden Egg!
I don't really need a Slingbox, but I'm tempted to buy a couple to show my
support for the company and to stick it in the ear of the MLB.

If you cannot watch it live, they want you to pay an additional charge to watch it after the game has finished.
Of course the fact that either our cable or satellite company has alread paid MLB to carry the game or we have already purchased EI to have coverage of the game doesn't come into it. MLB just wants to squeeze every cent out of us.

The overhead view is of me in a maze
And you see what I'm hunting a few steps away
And I take a wrong turn and I'm on the wrong path
And the people all watching enjoy a good laugh
Embarrassed with failure, I try to reverse
The course that my tread had already traversed
So doing the trauma engulfing my dream
Invaded through what was an unguarded seam
The torrent of helplessness swept me away
To the cavern of shame and the hall of dismay
Inside me a voice was repeating this phrase:
"You've lost it, you'll never get out of this maze"
You'll never get out of this maze x7

Four riflemen met at our range at 0900, Saturday, Oct. 23, to shoot our regular weekly high power match. The temperature was 44 degrees, the sky overcast and the wind calm. We all fired the John C. Garand Match - Course A, as fired at the National Matches at Camp Perry, Ohio.
Dave Spearing won the match with his K31 Schmidt-Rubin in 7.5X55mm by hitting 95- 1X+92+79=266-1X. He would have won a bronze medal at Camp Perry and we all congratulate him on both wins. Ron Troch fired his '03 and hit 85+88-1X+79=252-1X. I fired my '03-A3 and hit 85-1X+83+74=242-1X. Paul Straka fired his '03-A3 and hit 92+85+57=234.
After the match, three of us went to the excellent Willow Glen Caf for beverages. Carrie and
Lynn poured and Spearing paid. We all thank them.
Tuesday, Oct. 26, at 1900, eleven hand gunners met at our indoor range for the fourth shoot of our winter hand gun league. Chuck Chernoff won the match with a rim fire score of 273-4X's. He came in second with a make-up shoot and a score of 260-3X's. Lynn Lepak was third with 242-2X's. George
Newton was high man in center fire with a score of 253. In two handed rim fire Gary Snyder took first and second place by hitting 264-3X's and 246-6X's. Mike Curtis took third place with 249.
Shoot safely.

Cuban-Americans head to Cuba for pope's visit
MIAMI Natalia Martinez speaks with a clinical distance when discussing her family's decision to leave Cuba two decades ago. But the graduate student's cool demeanor falls away when she speaks of returning to her homeland for the first time this week during Pope Benedict XVI's historic visit.
"I am excited. I am nervous, and I'm anticipating confusion," Martinez, 25, said with an anxious laugh.
She could be speaking for many of the more than 300 Cuban-Americans who will form a delegation to Cuba led by Miami's Roman Catholic Archbishop Thomas Wenski. Some of those making the pilgrimage Monday fled the island half a century ago. Some grew up with only the stories their exile parents told them of the island 90 miles (145 kilometers) across the Florida Straits.
What unites these pilgrims is the attachment they feel to the country their families left years ago, even those who have long opposed Fidel and Raul Castro and the communist government they ushered in 53 years ago.
Travel to Cuba is always controversial among Cuban-Americans and the half-century-old U.S. embargo of the island severely limits trips there. In the 1970s, those who visited were often blacklisted in South Florida. A few faced violence upon their return. These days, newer Cuban immigrants often visit relatives on the island. But the issue is still a requisite topic for politicians campaigning in Florida.
It has only been magnified in the run up to the pope's visit.
At least half a dozen older exiles who are returning for the first time to the island declined to be interviewed by The Associated Press because of concerns about the reaction their words might cause in Miami or in Havana.
Many exiles who fled during the early days of the revolution see little reason to return. Cubans are the only group of immigrants who are almost always granted what amounts to political asylum when they reach U.S. soil. Older exiles say travel to the island cheapens legitimate claims for asylum, and they complain that delegations such as Wenski's prop up the Cuban government, which has a stake in all of the country's hotels and tourism services.
Those traveling to Cuba argue more interaction can only help open up the island. Businessman Carlos Saladrigas, 61, is among this group. But it took him years to reach that conclusion.
Saladrigas came to Miami at the age of 12 on the so-called Pedro Pan flights that the Church organized in the early 1960s to bring Cuban children to the U.S. His parents reunited with him a year later. An outspoken critic of the Castro government, Saladrigas helped lead a successful effort to stop a similar archdiocese pilgrimage from going to Cuba during Pope John Paul II's trip there in 1998. That visit was the first by a pope since the Cuban Revolution.
Saladrigas says that experience was a turning point.
"I saw for the Cuban people how it became a great image for change and hope," he said. "And it quickly dawned on me that an isolated Cuba is the most counterproductive thing we can do."

More than 23,000 students on Sunday appeared for the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE-Main) conducted by the CBSE nation-wide for admission to B.Tech. and BE courses in centres in Thiruvananthapuram.
The examinations were spread over 43 centres in the capital city.
The directive by the CBSE to candidates to carry with them a copy of either the Plus Two mark list or the admit card for the Plus Two examinations led to anxious moments for many candidates who failed to bring these documents with them to the JEE centres.
Some of the candidates who had come from outside the city and the district made a last minute scramble to get these documents either faxed or mailed to them.
"This year onwards, admissions to the IITs and the NITs too will be based on the performance in the JEE. So, the CBSE had tightened the scrutiny norms. Many candidates did not get to know of this and did not bring these documents. No one missed the examinations, though. The CBSE had directed us to allow such candidates also to write the exams," said Jyothis Chandran, manager of the Jyothis Central School, here.
The entrance examinations for the architecture course were held in the afternoon.

Design and Verification Languages
Design and Verification Languages
Verification languages are the foundation of the very dynamic electronics industry. Industry continually demands improvements in the process of providing differentiated products into their markets. These verification language courses provide in-depth knowledge of key design and verification languages so that you can identify and deploy them in your upcoming projects.
AMS Verification
Nearly all of today's chips contain Analog/Mixed-Signal circuits. Although these often constitute only 25% of the total die, they are often 100% of the product differentiation and also, unfortunately, 80% of the problems in actually getting the chip to market in a cost effective and timely way. Better design – executed more productively – is critical for today's sophisticated chips and SoC's.
These courses will introduce advanced Mixed-Signal verification techniques and help leaners understand how to choose the best methodology for a given design and execute it efficiently. These courses will cover a general understanding of Mixed-Signal design types and design verification requirements with a high-level overview of verification choices and results.
The target audience of these courses is the Mixed-Signal – and/or CAD – Engineers or Managers looking for ways to manage complex Mixed-Signal design structures by understanding the various available techniques addressing the challenges in Mixed-Signal SoC designs.

VHDL-2008 matters because it facilitates advanced verification, adds reusable data structures, simplifies RTL coding and adds fixed and floating point math packages. VHDL-2008 is the largest change to VHDL since 1993; this Verification Academy course is designed to explain the value of the new VHDL-2008 improvements for both Design and Verification Engineers. It is time to start using the new language features to simplify your RTL coding and facilitate the creation of advanced verification environments.
VHDL-2008: Why It Matters
by Jim Lewis, SynthWorks VHDL Training
VHDL-2008 (IEEE 1076-2008) is here! It is time to start using the new language features to simplify your RTL coding and facilitate the creation of advanced verification environments. VHDL-2008 is the largest change to VHDL since 1993.
An abbreviated list of changes includes:
- Enhanced Generics = better reuse.
- Assertion language (PSL) = better verification.
- Fixed and floating point packages = better math.
- Composite types with elements that are unconstrained arrays = better data structures.
- Hierarchical reference = easier verification.
- Simplified Sensitivity List = less errors and work.
- Simplified conditionals (if, ...) = less work.
- Simplified case statements = less work.

Vodafone 543 Mobile Phone - Calibration Wizard Nightmare??!!
Likes # 0
Posted June 26, 2011 at 5:01PM
My wife has a Vodafone 543 Mobile Phone and every time she turns it on the damn Calibration Wizard runs. It's driving her crazy and me too, by association.
I've done online searches for a solution and seen that others too are suffering. So far the only suggestion I've seen, that works, is to leave the phone switched on. I've emailed Vodafone about this problem, however, while I'm waiting for a reply I thought I would give you guys a crack at it.

Second review down Click here
Dave says, "is easy enough to use as long as it's been correctly calibrated (ie using a stylus rather than mashing the screen with your thumb)."
Have you tried that?

Hi Lazarus The 2nd
"Have you tried that?"
From what I've seen, no she hasn't. In fact I've never seen her use a stylus at all. I didn't even know such a thing came with it? But I'll tell her what 'Dave' said and see what happens, toes crossed!

Lazarus The 2nd
Well, I told her what 'Dave' said and she said...No, she hadn't used the stylus. However, I'm sure you'll agree when I say her reason for not using it was reasonable. It's because her phone doesn't come with a stylus. So I can only guess that either Dave was talking about another phone or he was using a stylus from another phone?
I'm waiting on delivery of my T-Mobile Pulse Mini smart phone. That has a stylus, so she'll be able to try that.

I was having the same problem with the calibration wizard running whenever I turned the phone back on. I read what Lazarus The 2nd said about using a stylus (and NO, one doesn't come with the phone so I used a pen with the nib retracted) and it said 'done' immediately, whereas before, I was using my thumb to press those annoying little squares popping up in the corner and the centre of the phone - over and over and over again. I can understand why it was driving you nuts. Thanks Lazarus.

We have gotten a knowledge base article written and published based on some of our findings regarding the component registration errors that some folks have seen while trying to install Update Rollup 2 for Media Center 2005. You can find the article at this location. This KB article covers the items I have previously written about in my blog here, here and here.
We are also working on updating the installation logic used by Windows Update to better detect this inconsistent .NET Framework installation state where .NET Framework 1.1 is installed but the version number of %windir%\system32\mscoree.dll is 1.0.3705.6018. We hope to have this change tested and published in the near future so that future installations of Update Rollup 2 will not be susceptible to this problem.

David Croft believes Fernando Alonso can still pip Sebastian Vettel to the world title
Sky Sports F1 commentator thinks battle set up for Brazil finale

Sky Sports F1 commentator David Croft says recent history shows the destination of the world title is far from a foregone conclusion and therefore Fernando Alonso can still overcome the odds and pip Sebastain Vettel to the crown.
This weekend's inaugural race in Austin presents Vettel with his first chance to clinch his third consecutive championship with the German needing to outscore his Ferrari rival by 15 points to avoid a final-race showdown next week in Brazil.
Although Alonso trimmed Vettel's lead to just ten points at the last race in Abu Dhabi after the latter driver started from the pitlane, the deficit is still considered relatively large given the Red Bull has been consistently the faster of the two cars in recent months.
Speaking in a phone-in with journalists ahead of Sky Sports F1's exclusive live coverage of the potentially title-deciding U.S. GP on Thursday, Crofty, while suspecting Alonso's best chance to move back ahead may have now gone, still backed the Spaniard to take the crown at Interlagos.

"I've said all year long that Fernando Alonso is going to win this title. I'm a bit of a stubborn old mule and it pains me to go against that, but I just wonder - was Abu Dhabi his best chance of retaking the championship lead and getting his season back on track?" Crofty asked.
"The momentum had swung Red Bull's way, but Sebastian Vettel starts from the pitlane which you think sets up Alonso getting back in the lead and we're back on again. But actually that was a cracking drive from Vettel, once he got the clumsiness of trying to get past Bruno Senna out of the way and hitting the marker board, who now to me looks pretty much nailed on for this championship.
"But in my seven years of Formula 1, the one thing I've learnt is you never, never count your chickens. Who would have thought in 2007 that Kimi Raikkonen would have emerged as the World Champion at the end of that year?
"There's only ten points between them and I'm not going to change my mind, I'm still going to say Alonso. Even if I'm wrong at least I've got loyalty to fall back on!"
And on the prospect of yet another Brazilian title decider, he added: "If it does go down to the wire it's brilliant and Interlagos is a great place for a title decider. It is one of the great tracks that are out there and it is one of the best sporting atmospheres in the world."

Hamilton Park - Thing Called Us (Remix)
Artist: Hamilton Park
Producer: Jermaine Dupri
Album: Hamilton Park EP
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 9 votes )
When Hamilton Park introduced themselves to the Booth with debut single Thing Called Us, staff and readers rejoiced, hailing the Atlantic four-piece as torch-bearers for "real R&B." "Tunefully understated," however, isn't gonna be enough to get pop and club-heads humming along—thus, Mr. Marcus,Anthony, Chris Voice and Royce P have hooked up with emcee/super-producer Jermaine Dupri in an attempt to cook up a remix that'll pump up the energy without sacrificing the original's soul and sincerity. In addition to establishing the momentum with a driving rapped opener, J.D. gives the record a major production makeover, replacing Rondeau "Duke" Williams' delicate ivory-tinkling with syncopated stomp-clap percussion and stuttering synths (along with plenty of the obligatory 'ay!'s). Despite the drastic shift in tone, the group's vocals retain their shine, as does the record's soulfully apologetic theme. Time to weigh in, Booth readers: have Hamilton Park successfully made Thing Called Us into a smash-hit? Debate away—and mark your calendars for the October 11 release of their self-titled EP, featuring this rendition of the record.

The rechristening of the National Football League, amidst much fanfare in 2007-08, promised to usher in a new era of Indian football, bringing in professionalism, visibility and money.
However, the AFC-backed, AIFF-managed I-League has failed in this endeavor. (The Rs. 70 lakh winner's purse doesn't cover even the recruitment cost of one quality foreign player.) And so another re-tweaking is on the cards.
The 2012-13 edition — spanning eight months, 182 matches, but only six cities — saw Churchill Brothers continue the Goan hegemony (seven League titles in a row). It beat Air India 3-0 in Pune on Sunday and ended the season on 55 points.
Local talent
Stacked largely with local talents, the team relied on its unity — players often talk about the familial feeling in I-League's only family-owned club — and the shrewd tactical acumen of technical director Subhash Bhowmick to upset title favourite East Bengal and record five-time winner Dempo SC.
Churchill won its second league title with a game to spare, but it was hit hard, at the halfway stage, with the sudden departure of the Lebanese duo, Bilal Najjarine and Akram Moghrabi, and the injury to senior Brazilian playmaker Roberto 'Beto' da Silva, the only big name in the squad.
However, Bhowmick was quick to re-jig his resources, and the loan signing of India skipper Sunil Chhetri, who had joined Portuguese side Sporting Lisbon B earlier in the season, and Afghan international Belal Arezou, during the winter break, revitalised the campaign.
The back-line functioned admirably, with outstanding performances from D. Ravanan, Denzil Franco and 37-year-old goalkeeper Sandip Nandy, and Churchill had the second best defensive record (22 goals conceded) behind East Bengal (18), which finished third.
Poor striking form
While, the Kolkata team was afflicted with poor striking form (44 goals), losing one and drawing five of its last seven games, the Red Machines, usually playing with two front men and Beto in a free advanced position, found the net 56 times — the most in the competition.
Gabonese international Henri Antchouet finished with 14 strikes, while Beto scored 13 — impressive, but far behind leader Ranti Martins' (Prayag) 27 goals.
For the 15th straight time, the League had a foreign golden shoe winner, drawing attention to the country's lack of a quality goal-poacher. C.K. Vineeth (Prayag) was India's best with seven goals. Joaquim Abranches (Dempo), Bineesh Balan (Churchill) and Francisco Fernandes (Salgaocar) scored six each.
The AIFF's plan to increase the number of foreign players per team to five from four will worsen matters. Clubs will look for quick-fix solutions rather than give Indian strikers an extended run.
The results: United Sikkim 0 lost to Mohun Bagan 3 (N. Chettri 6, Odafa 67, Tolgey 87), East Bengal 0 lost to Shillong Lajong 1 (Taisuke 6), Dempo SC 2 (Sueoka pen-20, A. Pereira 90) beat Salgaocar 1 (Obatola 15), Air India 0 lost to Churchill Brothers 3 (Bineesh 38, Vales 89, Antchouet 90).

Viewer's guide to meteor showers
Thu, Aug 09, 2012 at 12:12 PM
On Aug. 12 the Perseids meteor shower will be at its annual peak. It is but one consequence of the 100 tons of dust and sand-sized particles that bombard the Earth every day. As the debris travels through the Earth's atmosphere and vaporizes, it provides us with light phenomena known as shooting stars. If the bits and pieces outlast their fiery journey and hit the Earth's surface, then they are dubbed meteorites.
The best way to catch a meteor shower is to use your naked eyes, as a telescope or binoculars will limit the amount of sky you can see. Pick a dark patch of the sky, but don't focus on one spot. Space.com continues with this advice: "Avoid looking at your cell phone or any other light. Both destroy night vision. If you have to look at something on Earth, use a red light."
Here's a look at a few annual meteor showers and what we've learned from them through the years.

Want to build a blog that benefits you and your business?
Do you need help managing your blog?
Whether you're starting a new business blog or looking to revive an old one, there's a lot to do.
You may even feel overwhelmed by all that's involved. But don't worry.
In this article you'll find numerous resources and practical advice to help you through each stage of the blogging process.
Why Write a Business Blog?
A business blog helps you cement your position as an expert by giving you a platform to provide exceptional content (news, tips, trends) for your clients, potential clients and partners.
Here are 10 things you can do, along with a variety of resources you can use, to create and promote a successful business blog.
How to Ensure Your Future Blog Posts Are Popular
Are you struggling to come up with blog posts that attract the right type of visitors?
Are you unsure where to turn for new article ideas?
In this article I'll show you how to make sure your future articles are the ones your audience is really interested in.
Here's a hint how: your social connections can help you discover the topics that will perform well on your business blog.
5 Steps to Ensure Your WordPress Blog Is Secure
Is your WordPress blog safe from malicious people?
Would you like to make your WordPress blog more secure?
Most often, people don't think about security measures until it's too late. But there are some simple steps you can take to keep your blog safe.
Why Secure Your WordPress Blog?
A blog that has been hacked can suffer from loss of content, stolen data and expensive downtime. Maintaining the security of your blog helps you protect your reputation and provide your visitors with the best service possible.
Because WordPress is such a popular platform for blogging, it's a regular target for hacking attacks launched by people who find and exploit weaknesses and vulnerabilities in websites.
Here are 5 simple security measures that you should implement on your business blog today to protect it from hacking attacks.
#1: Delete the "Admin" Username
Hackers look for blogs that use the default WordPress admin username because it's half of the information they need to gain entry to your blog. When you use "Admin" as your username, you save the hacker a lot of time. All they'd need to do next is to figure out your password. Once that happens, they can enter your blog and do whatever they want.
The first step in making your blog secure is to create a new user profile for yourself and delete the default admin username. This makes it more difficult for someone to hack into your business blog.
Research Shows Blogging a Top Focus for Marketers
Do you ever wonder what tactics, tools and strategies other social media marketers are using?
Regardless of how long you've been involved in social media, chances are you have some questions that you'd like answered.
Questions such as, "What are the best social management tools?" or "What are the best ways to engage my audience with social media?"
These and many more questions were answered in the 2013 Social Media Marketing Industry Report, which surveyed over 3000 marketers with the goal of understanding how they use social media to grow and promote their businesses.
Here are some interesting findings from the survey:
#1: Marketers Want Most to Learn About Blogging
When asked what social media platform they wanted most to master, 62% of marketers said blogging, putting it in first place slightly ahead of Google+. This answer is consistent with other studies, which show that the appetite for blogging education is growing.
An important trend to consider is that 28% of marketers now have mobile-optimized blogs. This is highly significant when you consider that the number of smartphone subscribers in the world has broken the 1 billion mark.
15 Actionable Takeaways From Social Media Marketing World 2013
Did you miss Social Media Marketing World in April?
Or perhaps you were there but weren't able to attend all the sessions you would have liked to.
In this article I've assembled for you 15 actionable social media marketing takeaways from some experts who presented at the event.
Here's what they had to say.
#1: Prepare for Social Displacement
With maturity of any new industry comes disruption. Just as email, the web and search disrupted entire industries several years ago (e.g., the postal service, print publications and traditional sales), we can also expect a lot of online disruption to happen because of social media.
- Facebook messages are displacing email (it's becoming easier to send your friend a Facebook message rather than find their email address).
- Asking friends rather than searching (more and more people are asking their Facebook friends or Google+ circles for referrals instead of searching online for a product or service).
- Listening to podcasts is beginning to replace radio.
How to Generate More Leads With Your Blog: 5 Tips
Does your business have a blog?
Would you like your blog to bring in more leads for your business?
You already know you need to create awesome blog content, but there's more to business blogging than just that.
You also need to include a few tactics to help you bring in the leads you want.
Here are some useful tactics to entice and capture leads used by top marketing business blogs!
#1: Place Opt-In Forms Around Your Blog Content
There are several areas on your blog that you can use to introduce visitors to calls to action such as free trials, free consultations or a simple mailing list opt-in form. These areas include your header, sidebar, the end of blog posts, your About page and your footer.
Unbounce, a landing page software creator, encourages people to try their software or sign up for their mailing list in their sidebar and post footers.
How to Improve Your Social Media Marketing With Blogging
Do you blog? Are you active on social media?
Have you integrated your blogging with your social activities?
Blogging can help you improve your social media marketing.
In this post, you'll discover four tips to enhance your social media efforts using your business blog.
#1: Share Your Blog Posts in Your Social Status Updates
Not sure what to post on your Facebook wall or Twitter profile? How about links to your blog posts?
The rule of thumb is to have a 80/20 split with 80% of your updates not self-promotional and 20% self-promotional. If you use the 20% self-promotional updates to share links to your blog content, you'll give your followers something more valuable to read than a product or service sales page.

Still a great film even though its way expired after all these years (no perceivable fog). I have shot a fair amount of tmax 100 and I dont think it matches up as a substitute. I think tmax 100 is a great film, its one of my favorites in 120 with its amazingly clear base, and acros is good too, but panatomic X just handles and feels different. Its hard to put a finger on it. Plus you dont need to always shoot landscapes with it, shooting wide in full sun is always a neat trick too.

Immediate thoughts: I need to load more on my legs, explode up into the ball, and bring my hitting arm up higher.
Only took a quick look at one of the videos. Not bad at all.
Your tossing hand should continue upward after the ball release. you tend to stop it right away and/or pull it down too quickly. Take a look at the pros. After the ball release, the tossing hand keeps moving upward so that the arm assumes a vertical position. This gets your front shoulder higher for a better shoulder tilt for your trophy position.
The extended hand also provides a better reference (measuring too) for your toss. It helps you to better determine the quality and location of your toss. It should also provide a better indication for when you should swing at the ball. Do not pull your extended arm down until your racket head drops from the trophy position down to the scratch position.
Lookin good...
Only thing I see that is glaring....you are swinging slower on your second serves. Since you add much more spin, you need to swing faster on your second serves because...you can. You can because a spinny serve is led by the leading edge of the frame, so it's not presenting a full face, and it's more aerodynamic.

Police officers got a surprise this week when they pulled over a car -- and found a woman giving birth.
The two Milwaukee officers thought they had a drunken driver on their hands when they chased a speeding car. When they pulled the car over and came up to the window, they could see why the car was speeding.
I could see that she was actually giving birth. The head was fully crowned and everything, said Milwaukee police officer Xavier Benitez. At that point I yelled across to my partner, 'We're having a baby!'
The surrounding streets were blocked, so the officers put gloves on and offered their help.
Two minutes later, they delivered a healthy baby girl.
The officers have already visited the new baby and the family and say they are all doing great.

Re: My First Fiberglass Repair
This place is great - good advice here.
Biaxial cloth is probably a good idea with the curves. Respirator and sheeting off - definitely. Only thing I would add is the importance of acetone, generally before as well as after sanding/cutting, to make sure that you don't drive contaminants into the surface you are preparing.
Also give the wood a light sand and thorough acetone wash (respirator!)
Finally - this will sound odd - the viscosity of epoxy changes dramatically with temperature. I did a project which started in winter, when the epoxy was like molasses, and ended in summer, when it was like water. You want the epoxy to penetrate wood/cracks/cloth, and so may need to *slightly* warm it to reduce viscosity. Clearly this also accelerated hardening, but with a slow hardener you should be fine.
Enjoy! Fixing fiberglass is easy - and fun!

Certified Equine/Canine Massage Therapist, Julie Ennis, Today Announces the Formation of a New Company Offering Equine and Canine Sports Massage Therapy Services
Massage therapy benefits all equines and canines, from the beloved companion to the highly athletic performer. This therapy is being increasingly utilized to enhance performance, reduce injuries, and maintain overall physical and mental health.
Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) June 24, 2011
Equine and canine massage therapy is non-invasive and its' methods are used for a variety of reasons, all resulting in improved quality of life and increased longevity. To name a few, muscle integrated therapy can aid in: speeding up recovery time from an injury, hip/elbow dysplasia, arthritis, lameness, colic, behavior/training problems, and much more.
Why is massage therapy for equines and canines on the rise? People are taking on more responsibility when it comes to their pets health and investing more to ensure their well-being. Animals are living longer and in turn, require more specialized care. In addition, the use of equines and canines for show and competition is growing.
Julie Ennis is a graduate of Delaware Valley College with a B.S. in Animal Science / Equine Science Management. As a lifelong equine enthusiast and small animal vet technician, she wanted to continue her education and did so at the school of Equissage in Virginia. Seeing the positive and effective results of massage therapy, she learned that she could pursue a rewarding career doing something she loves – helping animals.
This type of therapy involves locating and treating muscle spasms and trigger points (build up of lactic acid with nerve ending irritation) often caused by tension. Body movement relies greatly on the contraction of muscles and the movement of joints. When muscles are not functioning properly, this causes pain and affects the body's movement. Repeated strains and exertions cause residual muscle tightening which causes the loss of or a decrease in range of motion.
Muscle spasms are often overlooked. They do not show up on x-rays and are cumulative in nature. Unless properly treated, the problem will not resolve on its own. Massage breaks apart these adhesions and restores proper function and circulation to the muscles.
"Equissage has consistently demonstrated that sports massage can make invaluable contributions to a horse's soundness and performance." These same techniques were adapted and applied to the canine. While they are obviously different species, it is factual that a muscle is a muscle, whether it is human, equine, or canine.
Good In Tensions will provide equine and/or canine clients with a proper initial evaluation and a full body sports massage. A maintenance plan and, if needed, follow up exercises will be discussed with the owner(s) to achieve maximum results. They also are available for demonstrations, clinics, and exhibitions.
