Batticaloa (மட்டக்களப்பு in Tamil මඩකළපුව in Sinhala) is the provincial capital of the eastern province of Sri Lanka. It is also the seat of the Eastern University of Sri Lanka. It is on the east coast, 69 m. South by South East of Trincomalee, situated on an island.
Many bridges are built across the lagoon connecting the landmasses and the islands. The largest island is called Pullianthivu which the metropolitan place of the city. The bridge of all is Lady Manning bridge located at Kallady, which is the main access path to the city from the southern places of the district. This bridge is also famous for Singing fishes which was considered musical sounds heard in the Kallady lagoon in the full moon day. A priest named Father Lang recorded this musical charm and broadcast it in the 1960s over the SLBC (Sri Lanka Broadcasting Cooperation)
Batticaloa beaches are sandy and located along 4 km shoreline in the city and further extend through the neighboring places. Kallady beach, the popular serene beachfront where large numbers of people gather in the city. Also Batticaloa such as the heavenly beaches of Pasikudah and Kalkudah have rarely been molested. Pasikudah is a bay protected from the ocean. The significance of Pasikudah is that its bed is flat and sandy and has a pleasant effect on the feet. This can be experienced up to nearly 150 to 200 meters from the shore. Pasikudah is an ideal location for those who wish to learn swimming. Pasikudah is in perfect harmony with its stunning natural setting on the island's eastern tip. With its atmosphere of rarefied tranquility, it is a place for relaxation and renewal.
Batticaloa's climate is temperate all throughout the year. From March to May the temperature averages around 32 degrees Celsius (88 degrees Fahrenheit) maximum. These periods will be warmest throughout the year. During the monsoon season from November to February heavy rains are recorded, where the average temperature fallen to 15 degrees Celsius .Rainfall in Batticaloa averages around 1,400 millimeter (551in).

Thus the 1981 census gave a figure of 10,646 Sinhalese, while the 2000 census records only about 150 Sinhalese. Similarly, the 76,000 Moors in 1981 has reduced to about 47,000 in the 2000 census. By contrast, the Tamil population of about 234,000 in 1981 has increased to about 353,000 by the year 2000.
The District of Batticaloa itself consists of several administrative divisions, which are: Manmunai North, Manmunai West, Manmunai South West, Manmunai South & East Pattu, Manmunai Pattu, Koralai Pattu North, Porativu Pattu, Kattankudy, Eravur Pattu, Eravur Town, Koralai Pattu and Koralai Pattu West. Some 515,707 persons (50.9% female) were recorded in the 2000 census, constituting 128,689 families. Religion based statistics in the year 2000 are: Hindus 68%, Christians 5.9%, Muslims 25%, with a small numbers of Buddhists and others [Source: Department of Census & Statics, Sri Lanka]. These figures became even more polarized towards Hindus during the LTTE occupation which came to an end in 2007 (see Eelam War IV).
According to the 2001 census, the total population was 486,447. Of which 6,345 were Sinhalese, 362,431 Ceylonese Tamil, 727 Estate Tamil, 114,111 Moor, 2,696 Burgher and 21 Malay.
According to Mattakallappu Manmiyam (மட்டக்களப்பு மான்மியம்) the word Mattakkallpu consists Tamil words "Mattu"(மட்டு) means honey or Matta-derived from "Mattam"(மட்டம்) means (Flat) and geographical name KaLappu. Mukkuwa named this place as KaLappu-Mattam or boundary of lagoon later it became Matta-Kallappu or Flat Lagoon. Similarly the Mattu-Kallppu or "Confluence of honey river" became Mattakkallppu.
The earliest historical artifacts are a dagaba and Chatra from the Ruhuna kingdom of King Kavantissa (1st century BC), found in the Dutch fort built in the seventeenth century CE. Many archeological sites dating to pre-Christian times have been found in this region. Thus Lankavihara, Roththei (Roththa) temple, Kinnaragala, Rahathgala (Shanthamalai), Veheragalkanda (Pulukunai), eluvamulla (Pullumuilai), and Taaththon Kovil, are some sites identified and listed by the Government archaeological survey. Many towns of the area show toponymic evidence, as well as evidence from stone inscriptions, of ancient sites related to 'Seruvavila' and other Buddhist shrines of the area. Thus "Eravur' is derived from "Serapura", where, on muting the 'S' and modifying 'pur' → 'vur', i.e., standard transformations well accepted by linguists, we are lead to its current name: "Eravur" Although a large number of ancient historical sites have been identified, archaeological excavations and detailed studies have been very limited. A map of the Buddhist sites in the eastern coastal belt near Batticaloa and extending towards Trincomalee has been given in a "Buddhist Times" publication.
Mattakallappu Manmiyam refers (மட்டக்களப்பு மான்மியம்) Mukkuva or Mutkuhar are known as the first people migrated to this land and constructed seven villages in various areas. They immigrated their people form India and established the kingdom of Mukkuva. The name of the villages and towns in Batticaloa still holds the historical evidence of the ancient batticaloan people. When Mutkuhar intruded through the salty water and reached the destination of their voyage at the forests situated around the lagoon. When they finished. The name given by the Mukkuva was "Kallpu-Mattam" which literally means "boundary of lagoon". Later it was called "Matta-Kallappu" which indicates the destination of Mukkuva's voyage and the water is flat.
Later Karikala Chola invaded and took thousands of prisoners. Gajabahu went to Chola Nadu and brought those prisoners and their descendents back. Along with the released prisoners, thousands of Tamils were brought and settled. They were settled in the Eastern, Western and Central Provinces.
After that there was a local ruler who ruled from Digavapi. Later the capital shifted to Anuradhapura. When Anuradhapura was destroyed the capital changed from Anuradhapura to Pollonaruwa. When Pollonaruwa was destroyed the capital moved to Kotte and then to Kandy. Anuradhapura was destroyed by Rajaraja Cholan and Pollonaruwa was destroyed by Kalinga Magha.
As a catalyst for change, Kalinga Magha is arguably one of the most significant rulers in Sri Lankan history. His invasion marks the final - cataclysmic - destruction of the kingdom of Rajarata, which had for so long been the heart of native power on the island. The great cities of the ancient kings were now lost and disappeared into the jungle, and were not rediscovered until the 19th century. Native power was henceforth centred on a kaleidoscopically shifting collection of kingdoms in south and central Sri Lanka. The north, in the meanwhile, eventually evolved into the Jaffna Kingdom, which was subjected colonial rule by the Portuguese in 1619.
Kalinga Magha's geopolitical impact is reflected in the changing language of the Culavamsa as well. The traditional divisions of Sri Lanka, into Rajarata, Dhakkinadesa, and Ruhuna, first undergo a change of names (Rajarata becomes Pathithadesa, Dhakkinadesa becomes Mayarata), and then slip into obsolescence altogether. Their successor kingdoms tended to be geographically smaller and centred on a strong citadel-capital, such as Yapahuwa or Gampola; they also tended to be much short lived, like Sitawaka.
The bitter memory of Magha's invasion also tainted the previously close relationship between the Sinhalese and the Chola, Chera and Pandya inhabitants of southern India. Whereas the great families of Rajarata had invariably been polity-spanning clans, with extensive intermarriage between Indian and Sri Lankan branches, the royal families of the Middle Ages became more distinctive and recognisably Sinhalese in the modern sense of the word. This is not to say however that south Indian influence in Sri Lankan politics ended altogether - witness the Nayakkar dynasty of Kandy. However the age of the great, Indo-Lankan clans like the Moriya and Lambakanna was over.
Native authority on Sri Lanka, already in decline before Magha's invasion, never fully recovered from the invasion; the next three centuries were marked by near-anarchy. This period of Sri Lanka's history ended only with the arrival of a foe that would eventually subsume both the great empires of south India and the kingdoms of Sri Lanka under its authority - the forces of colonial Europe.
The Kandyan Kings have ruled Eastern Province throughout history. Thus the racial mixture was ensured by the Kandyan kings marrying into the families of Batticaloa rulers. Dutch invasion took place through Batticaloa with the alliance of Batticaloa rulers and Kandyan king Rajasinghe. Both were Tamils and Hindus. even though the Kandyan Kingdom was Sinhala Buddhist to the core, the kings were Tamil Hindus of Madurai Nayakkar origin.
Since Kandyan kings were of Madurai origin they brought ship loads of Mappilla Muslims from Kerala as the trading partners of the kingdom and granted asylum when the Portuguese launched the Holocaust against the Muslims in Sri Lanka. Thus the Eastern Province is the residence of majority of Muslims and a safe haven for them during the Sri Lankan Civil War.
Places like Karadiyan Aru and Urugam contain stone inscriptions in Brāhmī script which are still in existence.
Parakramabahu's coronation took place in 1236. He turned his attention to the recovery of Polonnaruwa from the Tamils, and achieved this purpose by 1244. In this connection two kings are mentioned, Magha and Jaya Bahu, who had been in power forty years, apparently reckoned from the time of the military rule after Sahasa Malla. As the Tamil war' and the `Malala war' as specifically mentioned by contemporary chronicles the two kings may have held different parts of the country. In the king's eleventh year (1244/5) Lanka was invaded by Chandrabhanu, a Javanese (Javaka) from Tambralinga, with a host armed with blow-pipes and poisoned arrows: he may have been a sea- robber, and though now repulsed descended on the Island later on.
The rest of the reign according to the contemporary records was spent in pious works; the king also held a convocation for the purpose of reforming the priesthood, whose discipline had been relaxed during the Tamil occupation. The chronicles make no mention of a great Pandyan invasion which seems to have taken place between 1254 and 1256, in which one of the kings of Lanka was slain and the other rendered tributary. From this it is clear that Parakramabahu- never had recovered the north of the Island, which certainly had been held by his great namesake.
From Cape Comorin the Dutch Admiral Spitzburgen steered his course to Point de Galle ; but, without landing there or at any of the other places which were strongly fortified by the Portuguese, he sailed round the south coast of the Island and made for Batticaloa, where he anchored on the 31st May, 1602.
He learnt that the town of Batticaloa, where the chief of the province resided, was about three miles inland ; so he sent him a messenger proposing to enter into trade with him. In the meantime he learnt from some Tamils who came on board that there was plenty of pepper and cinnamon to be had, but that it was to be obtained from the chief of the place. These Tamils brought with them a Portuguese interpreter; for Portuguese was the only European language then heard or spoken in Ceylon, and the natives of the Island had no idea that there were other white people who spoke a different language.
The Admiral was taken from Batticaloa to Kandy and was given a liberation hero's welcome as King Rajasinghe seized the opportunity to get rid of the Portuguese, the oppressors who were slowly encroaching the island systematically and promoting subversion against Rajasinghe.
The Batticaloa fort was built by the Portuguese in 1628 and was the first to be captured by the Dutch (18 May 1638). It is one of the most picturesque of the small Dutch fort of Sri Lanka, it's situated in an island, still in good condition. Near Batticaloa the Portuguese had a tiny fort at Tanavare (there is a map of it but no remains) There is a 1st century CE Buddhist Dagaba inside the Dutch fort.
In 1942, during World War II, Royal Navy Ships HMS Hermes and HMS Vampire were stationed near Batticaloa. Both these ships came under Japanese Aerial attack and were sunk. Some of the remnants of HMS Hermes still remain at around 9 nautical miles off Baticaloa.
The Batticaloa is claimed by Tamils organization like the LTTE as part of their Tamil Homeland, Tamil Eelam. The city has witnessed countless murders, rapes, mass massacres and wholesale disappearance of civilians, especially after Black July and the subsequent Sri Lankan civil war. Batticaloa is the primary focus of attention of Vinayagamoorthy Muralitharan, better known as Karuna Amman, a former LTTE commander who broke away from the main organization in 2004. The LTTE claims that "Karuna" feared disciplinary action from the leadership for financial and personal malpractices. Karuna operates his own political (Not yet recognised as a political party even though an application was submitted three years before) and military group, the Tamil-Eala Makkal Viduthalai Pulikal, TMVP. At first the LTTE attempted to eliminate the TMVP on its own and demanded that the Sri Lankan government not interfere. Subsequently, the LTTE called for the elimination of TMVP as part of the ceace-fire agreement. However, TMVP claimed to be a political party and asked for protection from attacks from the LTTE. It had no real option except to covertly collaborate with the government forces and function as a paramilitary group of the Sri Lankan Army. Thus the TMVP (referred to as the Karuna Group) is strongly opposed to the LTTE. The division between the Yalpanam-Vanni Tamils and the Mattakkalapu Tamils is deep seated, involving caste as well as forms of Hindu worship. The Jaffna Tamils have considered themselves to be superior to the Batticaloa Tamils. The conflict between Batticaloa Tamils led by Karuna and the LTTE has some parallels with the conflict between the Mukkavas and the Thamilars. The Muslims, another Tamil-speaking group, and yet have suffered ethnic cleansing at the hands of the LTTE, commencing with the murder of 140 Muslims during prayer The Muslims tend to be bilingual and are often in the cross-fire of the war. In a series of battles which began with the confrontation at Mavil aru (Mavil Oya) and Sampur (Somapura), Vaharai (Vihare) in August 2006, the Sri Lankan military in July 11 2007, ousted the Tamil Tigers from their last stronghold of Thoppigala (Batticaloa province) in Eastern Sri Lanka. The LTTE defeat is considered to be a major blow to the Tiger regime which now controls only the Vanni area of northern Sri Lanka.< qq

DepEd mulls Spanish for students
"¡Hola! Me llamo Kristine. ¿Como te llamas?"
If all goes well, Filipino high school students in a few years will be speaking the language of our forefathers—for most of them anyway.
On the sidelines of a recognition ceremony for the winners of the 2012 Metrobank Foundation Search for Outstanding Teachers on Monday, Education Secretary Armin Luistro told the Philippine Daily Inquirer his department was in the process of crafting an exchange program with Chile to allow Filipino public and private school teachers to "build up on" their competencies in the Spanish language.
In return, Luistro said, the Filipino teachers would give their Chilean counterparts a hand with English.
"These are very initial talks… we can send teachers who will help them with their English program, and (who can) get some training over there in Spanish and then come back. On the Chileans' part, they would also send teachers here," explained Luistro.
Although the Department of Education already has a tie-up with Spain's Instituto Cervantes for the same purpose, the exchange program with Chile would help fill the need for more Spanish-trained teachers in basic education by 2016, when Grades 11 and 12, or senior high school, shall start to be implemented under the K to 12 program.
Included in the new curriculum, Luistro said, will be a foreign languages elective.
"(And) you know the Spanish (language) in Latin America? It's closer to our understanding of Spanish," he said .
Asked how many teachers would be sent to train in the Latin American country under the program, Luistro said the numbers had "not yet been firmed up."
He also said there was still no timeline for the exchange program, but that it would be implemented as soon as possible. Luistro said there were currently 318 Spanish-trained basic education teachers in the country.

I had one for a year. It's a great scooter and perfect for urban scootering. It even kind-of blends in with bicycles at the bike rack.
The Vino 125 is a 50 - 55 mph bike stock. That's on a perfectly level road that happens to be quite long. Plenty of mods available to make it faster. I had added Dr. Pulley sliders (10.5 gram), NCY variator, 1500 rpm torque and clutch springs, 105 main fuel jet, Slipstreamer S-06 windshield, 150 cc overbore kit, and NCY high lift cam to mine. That made it a pretty quick scoot 0-40 mph, and it would top-out around 62 mph on a long, flat surface. Any wind or hills would knock it down to 50 - 55 mph (modified.)
I traded it in after almost a year for the Tmax as I wanted to go faster. But if you don't have a need for 55+ mph speeds consistently, the Vino 125 works great.

How brands can improve the effectiveness of their social product promotion efforts.
The role of social marketing has evolved. Instead of just focusing on brand awareness and conversation, marketers are now starting to use social to build real product momentum.
This has been enabled, in large part, by the rich, visual content that social channels now support. Look no further than Pinterest, Instagram, and Facebook gallery posts to see how visual content is taking hold and changing the landscape. Marketers and merchandisers are excited as they see these visual social networks as a source to a more direct social return on investment (ROI), as they can influence actual product sales through a direct path of:
Discovery --> Engagement --> Purchase
Whether the eventual purchase may happen online, in a store, or even within social, the need for a path to purchase is clearer than ever. While this evolution in social opens up powerful new opportunities, it has also brought to light an important "gap" in today's social path to purchase; an "engagement gap."
There's a hole in the funnel, dear marketer, dear marketer…
If brands were to map their social product promotion efforts today, most would look something like this:
Step 1: Discovery: post about the product on Facebook Timeline, Pinterest, and Twitter
Step 2: Engagement: nothing
Step 3: Purchase: hope the posts led to some increased sales online or in-store
Put in terms of the social path to purchase outlined above, the "engagement" step is often skipped entirely. This creates a problem for two reasons:
First, brands are missing out on key product amplification opportunities. A customer's point of discovery about a product is a great time to invite them to participate with - and amplify - that product. Let them explore the product in detail, vote on their favorite features, offer feedback and insight, tell their friends about it, etc. The potential for valuable social product amplification goes far beyond just a like or a re-pin.
To illustrate this point, I visited dozens of Facebook pages looking for an example of a brand or retailer successfully promoting products through social. What I found were dozens of companies with post after post and few, if any, product engagement opportunities for customers, which brings us to the second problem:
Social purchase influence and conversion rates are going to be low without an engagement experience to "connects the dots" between discovery and purchase. In some cases - especially for high consideration products - this may be an experience that aggregates the social momentum for that product and invites a customer to explore it in a social context. In other cases, such as a new product launch or an impulse buy, the experience may present a social offer or incentive that creates a compelling reason to purchase.
As the effects of the gap between discovery and purchase are felt in an organization, the importance of social product promotion will continue to grow. However, the good news is that there are a number of ways brands can improve the effectiveness of their social product promotion efforts, and ultimately improve their impact on downstream sales:
While still early, the direction of social marketing toward product promotion and impact on sales is critical and promises to bring meaningful ROI to those brands that design effective paths to purchase. It's up to us, as social marketing strategists and practitioners, to make sure we create compelling product experiences that lay all the stepping stones necessary for customers to effortlessly walk the path from product discovery to purchase.

Landeskog lifts Avs to 3-2 OT win over Ducks
DENVER Gabriel Landeskog scored at 1:52 of overtime, Semyon Varlamov stopped 38 shots and the Colorado Avalanche beat the banged-up Anaheim Ducks 3-2 on Monday night to remain in the thick of a tightly congested Western Conference playoff chase.
Jamie McGinn and Kevin Porter also scored for the surging Avalanche, who have won four of five to move into the eighth and final playoff spot.
Francois Beauchemin and Teemu Selanne had the goals for the Ducks, a team that was rolling along until a recent slide. Anaheim has dropped six of eight to tumble even further out of the postseason picture.
The winning goal was set up by a turnover in the Ducks end. Matt Hunwick stole the puck and passed it to Landeskog, who knocked it by Jonas Hiller as the Avalanche improved to 14-4 this season in games that go beyond regulation.
Porter scored with 6:47 remaining when he stuck out his stick and redirected Jan Hejda's slap shot past Hiller for his first goal since Dec. 29.
It looked as if that might just hold up, given the way Varlamov was playing in net.
But the Ducks had a quick response, with Selanne sending a shot into the corner of the net on a power play. With that score, Selanne moved ahead of childhood idol Jari Kurri for 19th place on the NHL scoring list with 1,399 points.
Colorado nearly had a goal late in regulation when Ryan O'Reilly broke free at the blue line and skated in on Hiller. But the Anaheim goalie turned in a nifty glove save, tumbling back after catching it.
The officials took a quick look at the replay to see if his glove - with the puck in it - had crossed the goal line.
It didn't, sending the game into overtime.
Anaheim tied it at 1 in the waning seconds of the second period when Beauchemin stuck out his stick and tipped the puck past Varlamov. It was the defenseman's first goal since Jan. 18.
Up until then, Varlamov was turning back everything sent his way, including a backhanded shot from Selanne in which the young Russian goaltender slid over just in time.
McGinn gave the Avalanche the lead midway through the opening period, sending a wrist shot between the legs of a Ducks defenseman and by a screened Hiller.
The gritty forward has played well since being acquired from the San Jose Sharks at the trade deadline. McGinn now has five goals and two assists in seven games wearing the burgundy and blue sweater.
After McGinn's goal, the goalies stole the show for the rest of the period.
Varlamov made a save with his right pad on Kyle Palmieri's wraparound shot from behind the goal. Not to be outdone, Hiller stonewalled Steve Downie at the doorstep of the goal.
Lately, Hiller has been logging plenty of time in the net. This was his club-record 29th straight start. The old mark of 23 was set by Guy Hebert and tied by Jean-Sebastien Giguere, who's now with Colorado.

Botanical Gardens
Notable conservation initiatives marked 1994 as a year of further consolidation for botanical garden networks and the increasingly international nature of plant conservation. In October 1994 the Toromiro Management Group met at the University of Bonn (Germany) Botanical Garden. This group included representatives of botanical gardens, researchers, and conservationists developing an integrated conservation strategy for the tree Sophora toromiro, now surviving only in botanical gardens following its extinction on Easter Island. This was one of the few international conservation programs for a threatened plant linking European collection managers with protected area managers and conservationists in the country of origin. The first experimental reintroductions were planned for 1995.
Other notable examples of international cooperation included the repatriation of the critically threatened Hawaiian endemic Alsinidendron trinerve from the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, near London. This species was close to extinction in the wild and was cultivated by the Waimea Arboretum and Botanical Garden, Haleiwa, Hawaii, as part of a recovery program that would involve reintroduction. Bulbs of the extinct Chilean blue crocus, Tecophilaea cyanocrocus, were sent from Kew to the Chilean national botanical garden at Viña del Mar as part of a collaborative conservation project.
In May 1994 staff from the Gibraltar Botanic Garden discovered the Silene tomentosa, long thought to be extinct. Seeds and propagation material were collected from the three plants found, and many hundreds of young plants were in cultivation in both Gibraltar and Kew. The Rio de Janeiro botanical garden was cultivating the threatened brazilwood, or pernambuco, tree, Caesalpina echinata, highly prized for its mahogany-like timber and particularly valued for its use in violin bridges. A strategy was being developed to create habitat reserves east of that Brazilian city.
National and regional conservation efforts continued to develop apace. The Indonesian Plant Conservation Network was launched at the Kebun Raya Indonesia, the botanical garden at Bogor, Java, in July 1994. The network was intended primarily to facilitate communication and cooperation among conservationists working in Indonesia.
Following a meeting in the Canary Islands, the European Network for Botanic Gardens was inaugurated in May. A parallel network for the United Kingdom and Ireland began work in October 1994 after a meeting at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Edinburgh. Botanic Gardens Conservation International opened a regional office at the Utrecht (Neth.) Botanic Garden, to support activities throughout Europe.
In recognition of the urgent need to develop regional and local training courses to strengthen the role of botanical gardens as major agents for plant conservation, such courses were being inaugurated in different regions of the world. In 1994, for the second year running, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, held courses on plant-conservation techniques and botanical garden management. The Australian Network for Plant Conservation, in association with the Canberra Institute of Technology, initiated a new course on plant-conservation management. The Tropical Botanic Garden and Research Institute, Trivandrum, southern India, introduced a course entitled "Practical Horticulture and Conservation of Tropical Plants."
There were also happy surprises. In July it was announced that the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx would receive a $15 million gift--its largest ever--from the Mary Flagler Cary Charitable Trust. A small stand of trees, called Wollemi pines, thought to have been extinct for 150 million years, was discovered in Australia. (See ENVIRONMENT: Wildlife Conservation.) And in Lesotho the world's smallest species of moss, the Cape pygmy moss, Ephemerum capensi, believed extinct, was rediscovered. The specimen was found in the flower beds of the National University of Lesotho's botanical garden!

*******FS/FT: Non-4D Dunlop Aerogel 200 18x20 L3 + Babolat Pure Drive Team L2********
Hey guys.
I've got a few deals for anybody willing to help me on my (very) desperate quest for a Wilson K90
Deal 1: Dunlop Aerogel 200 18x20 strung, 4 3/8 (L3), in about 7/10 condition + $50 + I cover shipping fee to London, England.
Deal 2: Dunlop Aerogel 200 18x20, strung, 4 3/8 (L3), in about 7/10 condition + Babolat Pure Drive Team, unstrung, 4 1/2 (L2), in about 8/10 condition, but you have to cover shipping cost to London, which is about $20-$25 or so if I'm not mistaken.
Also, the rackets are up for sale individually, but I would prefer the trade for a K90. Thanks!
Forgot to add my email. firstname.lastname@example.com
Just an update:
I'm now willing to throw in a third racket. Three good rackets, for 1 K90. It's a Head Flexpoint Prestige mid (93sq), freshly strung today, L3, apart from the cosmetic damage at the top of the frame (scratches and paint chips), everything else is perfect. With the new pallet and new buttcap, and fresh clean, it's an 8/10.
I reside in London, England so you must be able to ship internationally.
Thanks alot guys.

Amid the sparking lights, fully decorated Christmas trees and perfectly wrapped presents, bands mingled with friends and fans in the backstage and VIP areas during the first night of KROQ's 24th annual Almost Acoustic Christmas at L.A.'s Shrine Auditorium on Saturday. (Click here for our review.)
A few artists took time to share fond holiday memories, stories of horrific gifts and what it's like to have the historic venue host this rowdy Christmas fest for the first time since the destruction of Gibson Amphitheatre.
Q: What's the thing that really gets you into the holiday spirit?
Davey Havok, AFI vocalist (above): "The weather puts me into the holiday spirit, when it starts to get colder and you can tell the seasons are changing."
Matt Shultz, Cage the Elephant frontman: "When I start to hear Christmas music, like played on the radio, that's what does it for me. I love it all. You hear some people bash it and I don't understand that, because I sometimes listen to it when it's not even close to the holidays."
Brad Shultz, Cage the Elephant rhythm guitarist: "Going out and getting the Christmas tree. We only have live trees in my household."
Jimmy Smith, Foals guitarist: "When the winter finally arrives and you get that cold snap for the first time – that triggers a lot of memories. On Christmas Eve, my family used to go to a little church in the countryside in England and we'd do an evening service, and none of us are really religious, but it was really powerful. When I was a kid, I'd be so excited because I wanted to get that thing out of the way so we could get to the presents! Now that I'm not getting toys anymore, I realize how important all of that really was."
Louis Vecchio, New Politics drummer: "As soon as Thanksgiving is over, I'm ready. I always say 'It's like Christmas every morning.' Everything should feel like Christmas morning."
Q: Who is your favorite character in a holiday movie?
Havok: "I like the Bumble from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer because he's misunderstood and has a toothache."
Matt Shultz: "Ralphie from A Christmas Story. We watch that movie every single Christmas at my grandma's house."
Brad Shultz: "I'm going to go with Ralphie's dad. I like that guy. It's all about his leg lamp."
Smith: "I feel like one of the burglars in Home Alone. That's like me trying to get into my house when my family locks me out while I'm out on the road.' That's like every morning of my life – falling on things, getting hurt, yep, pretty much."
Vecchio: "Clark Griswold from Christmas Vacation."

Event Name- OR - Select an option below
http://thejeffreynyc.com/ The Jeffrey is one of those pedagogical bars that wants to teach you something, namely about craft beer and spirits. This is not necessarily as irritating as it sounds, especially when the bar in question cultivates a real knowledge on the subject like this one does. Nestled under the Queensboro Bridge, this is an Upper East Side installment from the team that brought The Alewife to LIC. During the day The Jeffrey multi-tasks as an espresso bar, but come noon you can drop in for one of the 30 carefully curated and hard-to-find rotating drafts. For those who can't choose, the tasting bar offers a well-rounded flight. Read more about The Jeffrey >>
http://www.starwoodhotels.com/stregis/property/dining/attraction_detail.html?propertyID=81&attractionId=27614 The old boys' club that is the King Cole Bar and Lounge claims to have created the Bloody Mary in the '60s, and although the drink dates back at least to Paris in the '30s, who's arguing? Here, the goblet actually looks like it's filled with blood, and the smoky and spicy flavor is nirvana. Plus it arrives with a silver tray heaped with macadamia nuts and wasabi peas. Sure, all this class will run you an astronomical $17, but with such white-glove service and a plush interioraincluding the coup de grAC/ce, a multimillion-dollar Maxfield Parrish mural depicting the Merry Old Soul passing gasait's easy to ignore the decrepit suits and rich internationals talking stocks.

A dive bar for people your dad's age, McAnn's isn't without its charmadepending on how well you get along with Pops. They've got beer, they've got popcorn, the space isn't too dirty, and the people there have interesting stories to tell, if you have time to get another drink and settle in a bit. Read more about McAnn's Bar & Grill >>
http://www.monkeybarnewyork.com Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter's Midtown spot is a throwback to the days when New York's moneyed elite cared more about who was at a restaurant than the food it served. Not that the food is bad; it's just the social scene can sometimes overshadow it. The menu is a tribute to the time the original Monkey Bar opened back in 1936, full of throwbacks like lobster thermidor, seared Scottish salmon and duck a l'orange. Cocktails (gimlets, sidecars and the like) are similarly era-appropriate as are the appetizers, including a shrimp cocktail, clams casino and a baby iceberg wedge served with blue cheese and bacon. The dining room might as well be a theater with its big red booths holding media bigwigs, its Edward Sorel mural filled with famous New Yorkers and its white-uniformed waiters weaving in and out of the crowd. While it's not as exclusive as it was when it first opened, a reservation is still probably a good idea.—Keith Wagstaff Read more about Monkey Bar >>
Everyone at Murphy's Pub seems to have an accent. The bartenders and owner are serious Irish folk, while the crowd is a mixture of just-left-work New Yorkers and your classic bridge 'n' tunnel crowd, who have their own dialect. Like their Irish bar-brother down the street, the Pig 'n' Whistle, Murphy's has Shepherd's Pie on the menu, flaunts antique Guinness advertisements on the wall, and displays a large assortment of TV's above the bar. Murphy's, however, is smaller and built in the shape of hallway, amplifying the intensity of an already pleasantly intense crowd. Read more about Murphy's Pub >>
http://www.midnightoilbars.com Can I sit there? Where do I order a drink? Where do I set my drink down once I order it? Perhaps the savvy patrons of the W hotel bars understand the etiquette of drinking in what appears to be a hotel lobby, but itas a bit beyond me. Itas a bit bright, exuding the feel of a perpetual business meeting. Why deal with all the confusion and primness when Whiskey Blue across the hall is dark, inviting, and has a bed in the middle of the room? If you must stop, have a cosmopolitan (one of the best in the city, made with Cointreau and real lime juice, $12). Read more about Oasis at W Hotel >>
http://www.opalbar.com Even odds that this is the only city establishment with the classy practice of serving mango mojitos and apple martinis in pitchers. Opal converts into an Iowa-centric sports bar during football season; don't ask why, just stay for the free shots when the Hawkeyes score...Well, consider splurging on a pitcher, because that could take awhile. Read more about Opal >>
http://www.opiarestaurant.com Located in the Habitat Hotel, Opia serves as an appropriate after work spot for the financiers who work in the area. Occasional tourists also get sucked into the spot, mistaking it for one of the hipper hotel bars. Read more about Opia Bar & Lounge >>
http://www.pjclarkes.com Unlike its cross-country branches, P.J. Clarke's in Midtown is the original saloon, established in 1884. It's the one where Frank Sinatra joked about the urinals, the one featured on the cover of a 1971 issue of The New Yorker, the one currently surrounded by skyscrapers. The bar itself is ornamented in antique goodies, such as a framed portrait of a beardless Lincoln side-by-side with one of Kennedy. Though P.J. Clarke's has gone commercial, the historic, weathered charm of the original is something that can't be replicated. Order its acclaimed burger and some oysters from the raw bar and pay your dues with a glass of gin on the rocks. Read more about P.J. Clarke's >>
Recently overhauled Parnell's is bedecked in dark wood and exposed brick but still retains its old-style Irish-pub roots. The bar also serves a range of traditional Irish bar food and includes the option of a full dinner menu to go with one of their many beers on tap. Read more about Parnell's Pub >>
http://www.pignwhistleon3.com Unlike the Pig 'n' Whistle in Times Square, the chain's Midtown incarnation tends to a less rowdy bunch. "If your wife is shopping at Bloomingdale's, sit here and have a beer," reads a sign next to the bar. It's good advice. Six plasma televisions flank the left side of the room; a mini stage, situated on the right, hosts DJs, live music, and karaoke throughout the week. While this Pig 'n' Whistle has the Gaelic flair of its sister bars, such as Guinness-endorsing posters and Irish crests, it differentiates itself with some Old New York elegance, namely inlaid seating with circular flourishes on each tile. Make that beer a Guinness with a side of shepherd's pie - it's worth it. Read more about Pig 'n' Whistle on 3rd >>
Sophisticated and refined middle-aged gay men hold court in this elegant but small piano bar. Leather-backed chairs, paintings, and a grand piano make it seem like you're on the set of an '80s arts documentary program but the photos of the royal family of England seem to give it a slightly more absurd and tongue-in-cheek atmosphere. Read more about Regents Piano Bar >>
http://www.suttonplacenyc.com Some Voice associates refer to Sutton Place as "Sluttin' Place," and true: At 6 p.m., flirty ad sales associates come out in droves. Some might find this Midtown multi-floor bar a little mainstream for their tastes, but you don't see those delicate rocker studs at Lit Lounge laying out for your $3 Bud, do you?

Missing Graford teen found safe
Girl located on beach at Lake Granbury
A teenager from Graford reported missing by her parents has been found unharmed, the Palo Pinto County sheriff said.
Sheriff Ira Mercer said Kaitlyn Washburn, 19, and a man were located and identified at 4 a.m. Wednesday on a public beach at Lake Granbury.
"It's a closed case at this point," he said. "We found her, and we're happy."
Since Washburn is an adult, Mercer said there is nothing the department can do other than notify the family that she was found and didn't appear to be held against her will.
A missing person's report was filed Sunday after Mercer said Washburn left her home at 10 p.m. Friday. A flier was posted on Facebook requesting information about her disappearance. Because of the Krishonda Townsend abduction and alleged murder in July 2010, the sheriff said people are more cautious about their loved ones.
In October 2011, forensics testing confirmed that the human remains found in a field in Palo Pinto County were those of Townsend.
The sheriff said they continue to conduct interviews to find the person or people responsible for her death.
Local business owners have sponsored a $20,000 reward for any information that may lead to the arrest and conviction in Townsend's case.

Some of the teenagers have started pounding their fists. It's past eight o'clock on Friday night, and more than 40 young people have huddled outside the Circle of Discipline--a small nonprofit boxing gym located just off 12th Avenue and East Lake Street--where they're balling up their hands to strike so that they can get inside and dance. On any other night of the week, these kids might be throwing their jabs and body shots along with some of the most promising boxing talent in the Twin Cities. But tonight, as every Friday night for the past three months, the punching bags have come down and the disco balls have gone up.
"Man, I remember when barely anybody would show up for these parties," says one pint-size door-basher, waiting among the swelling crowd. "Now everybody knows about them--South, Southwest, North Side, everybody. Really, it's the only place us younger cats can go on a Friday night."
After ten years of operation as a community gathering place, martial-arts training room, and resource center, the Circle has only recently started pumping a tight selection of R&B, house, rap, and hip hop through its speakers. Considering the scarcity of teenage music venues in Minneapolis--especially those geared toward African Americans--it's easy to understand why the makeshift dance club usually fills its 350-person capacity within an hour of opening its doors.
While many clubs may shudder at the task of controlling hundreds of hormone-ridden urban adolescents, the Circle's head of security, Laura Guyton, tackles discipline directly.
"Listen up," she shouts to the pack of eager teens. "Welcome to the Circle of Discipline. I hope y'all have a good time tonight, but remember: This is our house and you gotta respect our rules. We don't allow caps, rags, or any sign of gang representation," she explains. "And if we smell marijuana or alcohol on you or if you just don't show respect, we'll ask you to leave."
After pausing for Guyton's plea, the DJ starts mixing CDs from the middle of the boxing ring, and the crowd chants along, bouncing to the heavy beats of Juvenile's "Back That Thang Up." A couple of open pockets have formed on the dance floor, allowing individuals to step in and strut their slickest stuff.
Later, when house music is played, amateur dance teams will take the floor and do battle in freestyle dance competitions. As the hard-hitting music explodes from the speakers, the burly Sankara Frazier--founding and leading member of the Circle of Discipline--swaggers into the club. Frazier immediately greets several of the teens with handshakes and high-fives. He already knows many of these kids from the time he spends in local schools, encouraging those who regularly get into trouble to come down to the gym.
"Before they learn discipline, [they] just have to give all that energy some focus," says Frazier. "I think these dances help with that."
The 43-year-old south Minneapolis native also notes that the Circle's dances have a more youth-centered perspective than most clubs. "Most places are...just out to make a buck," he says. "We're here to show and teach them respect. We want to give them someplace where they feel like they belong."
Having recently received a grant from the city, Frazier hopes to secure enough funding to keep the Circle open for longer hours. With a meager budget, the makeshift club has found it difficult to devote time to selecting DJs for the next dance party while training in novices for the next boxing match. Still, Frazier and the Circle of Discipline staff are committed to their cause and hope to launch other novel community projects. Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches.
The Circle of Discipline will hold a DJ dance party for ages 14+, 8:00 p.m. Friday, May 18; (612) 721-1549.

Principal Loses Job Over Misspelled Sign [VIDEO, POLL]
If you ever wondered if good spelling actually matters, here's your answer.
If you ever wondered if good spelling actually matters, here's your answer.
The profession of teaching is a labor of love. It takes a person with a beautiful and strong soul to be a great teacher. It's pretty much a given that teachers nationwide are underpaid and under the thumb of state and federal mandates which end up doing much more harm than good for the teacher and student.
A school principal in Hempstead, Texas, a small town located 50 miles west of Houston, was suspended with pay and will not have her contract renewed after announcing on the school's public address system that students were not to speak Spanish on school grounds.
The activity around area campuses has already started as teachers and school employees make ready for the upcoming school year. As teachers get their classrooms ready for students, one thing is pretty much a certainty, teachers are spending their own money for various needs.
Finals week is a challenging time for your average college student, but Scotty McCreery is far from your average university co-ed. North Carolina State University's most famous student recently took to his official Twitter account to effectively demonstrate the drastic difference in his double life.
Kevin Hillery, a 22-year-old man who was paralyzed last year after a tree fell on him, made history yesterday when he became the first-ever paraplegic to graduate from the United States Naval Academy. Way to go, Kevin!
We have a major problem when it comes to our kids getting the education they need and deserve. Now, before I go on, this has nothing to do with our local teachers and administrators...I sincerely believe that these folks are the glue that is holding our weak fabric of education together.
It seems that every East Texas teacher, administrator, and superintendent is at the very least disappointed with the state and federal level lawmakers and boards that make the education decisions.
Teen truancy is a real problem for a lot of schools, but especially so for the Dohn Community High School in Cincinnati. It only has a 14% graduation rate and has been deemed an "academic emergency" by the state of Ohio.
So the school is trying out a novel approach: it's paying students to show up and behave themselves.

Moorsavira Math has donated 25 acres to establish the college in Hubli
KLE Society chairman Prabhakar Kore, MP, announced on Wednesday that the society would start a new medical college in Hubli and a cancer hospital in Belgaum city and both of them would start functioning from next year.
He was addressing the inaugural function of the 97th KLES Foundation Day here.
Paying rich tributes to the founders of the KLES who are remembered as 'Saptarishis', he said Hubli-based Moorsavira Math had donated 25 acres of land to the society to establish the medical college. The construction would be taken up soon so that the first batch could be started from the academic year 2013-14.
The society's J.N. Medical College (JNMC) here is celebrating its golden jubilee this year.
Illustrious founders
Mr. Kore recalled the evolution of the society and hailed the sacrifices made by its illustrious founders — S.S. Basvanal, M.R. Sakhare, B.B. Mamdapur, H.F. Kattimani, P.R. Chikodi, B.S. Hanchinal and V.V. Patil.
He said the present management with the support of its board of members, teaching and non-teaching staff and several well-wishers had strived to ensure that institutions such as the JNMC, KLES Super-speciality Hospital (Belgaum) and B.V. Bhoomaraddi College of Engineering and Technology (Hubli), earned international recognition.
There were 247 institutions under the KLES now and three more would be started before the centenary year.
P. Sadananda Maiya, food industrialist, who was felicitated on the occasion, told the students that hard work blended with new technologies and service orientation was the key to success.
He reminded them that from being an ordinary boy from a small village in Udupi district he had emerged as a leading entrepreneur in food processing and packaging industry today. He appealed to the youth to contribute to nation building through commitment and dedication.
Shivalingeshwar Swami of Siddha Sansthan Math, Nidasosi, commended the KLES management for its initiatives in taking education to even the most remote villages of Karnataka and at the same time expanding its scope of activities at national and international levels.
KLES president Shivanand H. Koujalgi presided over the function. S.C. Pilli, chairman of the board of life members of the KLES, welcomed the gathering and presented a brief report on the achievements of the institution. S.S. Urabinavar, secretary, board of management, KLES, also spoke.
Students of various KLE institutions who excelled in academic, co-curricular and sports activities at State-, national- and international-level were presented with gold and silver medals and certificate of merit. Four staff members were honoured for their meritorious service.

Image found of Confederate White House housekeeper
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Mary O'Melia left Ireland for America as a young widow with three children before she was hired as housekeeper at the White House of the Confederacy. An intimate witness to history, she also has been much of a mystery.
That was until this year, when a woman with a distinctive Irish lilt to her voice called The American Civil War Museum. The housekeeper, the woman said, was related to her late husband, and she had in her possession a necklace that Confederate first lady Varina Davis gave O'Melia.
But there was more.
"What really took my breath away is she said she had a photograph of Mary," said Cathy Wright, curator at the Civil War Museum, formerly the Museum of the Confederacy.
"Considering that it's been almost 150 years since she left the White House that anyone has been able to look at her face is just remarkable," Wright said in an interview.
The tintype adds a human dimension to what is a tantalizing but frustrating portrait of a woman who left her children in Baltimore to oversee the White House in the capital of the Confederacy during the duration of the Civil War but publicly revealed little of the experience.
O'Melia was among a staff of 20, was a confidante to the first lady, and may have been in the mansion in April 1865 when President Abraham Lincoln visited after Confederate defenders left the city smoldering. Historical records are unclear on that point.
The discovery is important nonetheless because the museum, which is next door to the White House, has strived to piece together the often untold lives of the African-American slaves, free people of color and European immigrants who worked as domestics for the Davis family.
"One of the more elusive figures was Mary O'Melia," Wright said.
O'Melia was a central character in this Southern version of "Downton Abbey" and she remains a bit of an enigma. Even her name is a mystery. It's been spelled various ways through the years — O'Melia, O'Malley and O'Malla.
This much is known: she was born Mary Larkin on April 7, 1822, in Galway, in western Ireland. She was educated in a convent, and apparently the fine needlework the religious order of nuns taught her may have influenced her hiring by Varina Davis.
She married a ship captain, Matthias O'Melia, but was widowed at age 25 when he was lost at sea.
While the circumstances of her journey to America are not known, Mary O'Melia settled in Baltimore in about 1850. In 1861, she left her children with relatives and headed to visit friends in Richmond, where she was marooned when Virginia left the Union.
Told by friends Varina Davis could help her return north, she appealed to the Roman Catholic bishop to intercede on her behalf.
Ultimately, Davis prevailed upon O'Melia to take the position as housekeeper and companion to the first lady despite O'Melia's separation from her children.
O'Melia would eventually remain at the Confederate White House until Richmond's fall in 1865.

There is so much awesome here I can't even describe it. Old school New Wave with contemporary touches. Love it.
@Joe, Monik, Lord Stardust: Yuri's style has developed so much since I first photographed her; it is a delight to see.
@Yoel: Yes, Sachi knows her stuff!
@Ms. Jody: Kaoru loves life!
@Accidental Icon & Ms. Jody: Thank you. I deliberately don't shoot shoes from above because they almost always look best from the side. But perhaps I should make some exceptions …
Love the coat and the shoes look really interesting. Would like to get a better look at the top of the shoes but couldn't find them on line. The model …
What a cutie! She looks like she's having a blast too.
This is out of this world! I can't even begin to describe how much I LOVE this look! I'm in dire need of this outfit=) I guess it's not only …
I would LOVE to buy those prints! Especially the beautiful ones of the amputees.

Unfortunately' PureFormulas is not allowed to sell/ship this brand to international destinations.
The pituitary gland' which is a tiny endocrine gland found in the center of the skull' is far more essential to overall health than its small size suggests. This gland is responsible for producing growth hormone (somatotropin)' a substance that promotes repair and recovery. Perhaps most importantly' growth hormone may help replenish muscles and other tissues during physical exercise and sleep; it may also encourage your body to use fats for energy while discouraging the excessive breakdown of muscle tissue.
A supplement like Pure Encapsulations' Growth Hormone Support contains nutrients and compounds that can help stimulate your pituitary gland's own natural growth hormone production' which may be especially helpful as you get older because levels may naturally decline with age. The primary ingredients are two amino acids: ornithine and arginine. The combination may play a role in building lean muscle mass and strength--so you can look and feel better--when combined with a balanced diet and regular training regimen.
Ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate (OKG) may further support the functioning of your muscles by working to maintain healthy nitrogen balance' while also promoting good levels of metabolites (such as polyamine and glutamine) that can support muscle protein. Meanwhile' arginine serves as a precursor for protein and growth hormone synthesis. One capsule provides 500 milligrams of arginine HCl and 250 milligrams of OKG.
Take two to four capsules daily on an empty stomach' with a glass of water or juice. You can take this supplement one hour before a workout or right before bedtime. At the recommended dosage' each 180-capsule bottle of Growth Hormone Support by Pure Encapsulations should last from one-and-a-half to three months.
Pure Encapsulations seeks to formulate and manufacture high-quality' hypoallergenic dietary supplements. Quality control during the formulation and manufacturing process is paramount. All Pure Encapsulations products are made with the most bioavailable ingredients possible.
These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These products are not meant to diagnose' treat or cure any disease or medical condition. Please consult your doctor before starting any exercise or nutritional supplement program or before using these or any product during pregnancy or if you have a serious medical condition.
Each vegetable capsule contains:
L-arginine HCl............................................................................... 500 mg
Ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate....................................................... 250 mg
Ascorbyl palmitate (fat-soluble vitamin C) ...................................... 16 mg
Pure Encapsulations recommends 2–4 capsules per day' on an empty stomach' with juice or water' before bedtime or 1 hour before a workout' or as directed by your physician.
Are There Any Potential Side Effects Or Precautions?
If pregnant or lactating' consult your physician before taking this product. Because of its effect on nitric oxide production' l-arginine is theoretically best avoided by individuals with migraines' depression' autoimmune
disorders' and kidney or liver disease. Arginine is contraindicated for individuals with the herpes virus.
Are There Any Potential Drug Interactions?
At this time' there are no known adverse reactions when taken in conjunction with medications.

Excellent buy!
My doctors had me on and off these throughout my treatment over the past couple of years. They cost me a fortune through him ($110 w/o tax) so it was a huge relief to find them at less than half price through PureFormulas! Highly recommend - dont hesitate to purchase.

|Reconstructing activity patterns in prehistoric Jomon people using long bone cross-sectional geometry
|Knobbe, Sharon, 1984-
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|This thesis uses long bone diaphyseal morphology to test hypotheses regarding behavior and functional adaptation among Jomon period hunter-gatherers from the Yoshigo site in Japan. Cross-sectional properties of Jomon femora taken at midshaft were compared with the femora of hunter-gatherers from the Aleutian Islands. Cross-sectional properties from the mid-distal shaft of the humerus were compared between the Jomon and hunter-gatherers from the Aleutian Islands, California, and Georgia Coast. Sexual dimorphism was additionally assessed between the groups. Results suggest that the Jomon share a similar pattern of femoral robusticity (J) and shape (Ix/Iy) as Aleut hunter-gatherers. This study also found that Jomon humeri are significantly more robust than all comparative samples, but humeral shape is similar between the groups. In terms of sexual dimorphism, Jomon males and females are similar in both femoral and humeral robusticity and shape relative to the comparative samples, with Jomon males being more robust than females. Jomon and Aleut femoral robusticity and shape is associated with similarity in terrestrial mobility and terrain. The greater robusticity in Jomon humeri reflects intensive bimanual activities including swimming, rowing, digging tubers and throwing and lifting of fishing nets. Similarity in shape, but differences in robusticity between the sexes suggests similar direction of loading practiced with varying intensity.

Secondary tries for one and done
One thing that the film also showed was the Titans continuing to go back to routes that had worked. And for as often as Chargers defenders were beat, they repeatedly shut down the reruns.
Cason, in fact, was targeted 11 times and Jammer a season-high nine, and they were burned just the four times apiece. The Chargers faced a season-high 36 passes, but the Titans' 50 percent completion rate was the lowest the Chargers allowed since the season opener.
They began assessing that improvement even on the sideline during the game and this week have worked on improved focus and communication and trust of the defense. As he has before each of the previous three games, secondary coach Steve Wilks had his players on the field shortly after noon for a walk-through on Thursday, where they go over routes and anticipate what they might see and how they should react.
"As a group, we have been really consistent throughout the
year," Wilks said. "Consistency and not being on that roller coaster week in and week out -- and for the most part, we have been there."

Valve Hammer Editor
|It has been suggested that this article be merged with Source SDK to Source (game engine). (Discuss) Proposed since March 2015.
VHE with Half-Life 2: Deathmatch map "Carousel" open.
|Original author(s)
|Ben Morris
|Stable release
|Operating system
|Microsoft Windows
|Level editor
Valve Hammer Editor, formerly known as Worldcraft and now commonly called Hammer, is Valve Software's map creation program for their game engine, Source. Old versions of Worldcraft also supported Quake and Quake II. Versions prior to 4 supported exclusively GoldSrc, Source's predecessor. The current version only supports Source. It is freely available to anyone who has purchased a Source based game as a part of the Source SDK, or downloaded the free-to-play first person shooter Team Fortress 2.
Ben Morris originally released the original Worldcraft in September 1996 as a tool for creating custom Quake maps. [1] On July 14, 1997, Valve hired Ben Morris and acquired Worldcraft for use in Half-Life.[2]
Level design with Hammer[edit]
Prior to the release of the Source engine, the only construction blocks in Hammer were a set of simple primitives called brushes. These can still be used in older GoldSrc games, however, some features of version 4 and above, such as displacement maps, are not compatible with GoldSrc. Many level designers who work with both Source and GoldSrc games usually keep an install of 3.5 to avoid using unsupported features in a GoldSrc game.
Valve Hammer Editor version 4.0 saves a level file in the .vmf format by default. Before this, it saved a level file in the binary, proprietary .rmf or text-based, human-readable .map format. The .vmf format is a simple file that contains all the information about a level. It originated because of Half-Life's reliance on the Quake engine, and has remained as a result. The .vmf file is converted into a .bsp file that the game can load using tools from the Source SDK.

Re: Nvidia may be in trouble according to this article
Even if he is only half right ,then it does'nt look good for the GTX 480 Fermi.I hope to god he wrong and nvidia has everthing worked out ,it sounds like a killer card.But if the quanties are worst then ATI were when they first came out ,then it don't look good for nvidia.If they only have 10,000 cards at launch time,then it will be months and months before most people could get one ,if they can get one at all. We will find out more monday and I hope it not the doom and gloom I just read.I know they are haveing problems or the card would not be so late.It looks like the price is going to be around or over $800 for a GTX 480.If that is the case then I will just go with two HD 5850's .I hope he wrong because I like nvidia ,but I have nothing against ATI/AMD.I am building my mother a budget AMD system ,been a while sice I use a AMD chip.But the prices are just two good and I want to see what a cheap AMD system can do .I went with a AMD Athlon II X2 240 Regor 2.8GHz for $57 and a open box ASRock A790GMH/128 for $53.50 already have a great heatsink fan,Plus a open box SAPPHIRE HD 4850 DP 512MB GDDR3 256bit interface for $65 ,I already had 4 1gigs of Corsair Dominator 1066 DDR2,and a SATA Seagate 250gig harddrive and a samsung and sony DVD burners.I have a creative audigy ,but I am going to use the onboard sound,since she just has two cheap speakers.Iam currious to see what it will do,I will overclock the heck out of it.Most seem to overclock to 3.5gig with the stock cheap cooler at default voltage,I will be trying for 3.8 gigs.Not a bad system for under $200.
To get back on topic I sure hope what he is saying is wrong and they have a 512 shader Fermi working at 750/5000 and a Million ready to ship on lanch day at a $600 price tag.It sure would be nice,but either way I have waited long enough and if two HD 5850 is the better deal then I will go with ATI this time around and hopely next time in about a year nvidia has a worthy part out.

No "Hard Knocks" for Belichick yet
Posted by Monique Walker, Globe Staff August 23, 2010 01:45 PM
FOXBOROUGH -- Bill Belichick doesn't have HBO's "Hard Knocks" on his list of must-watch TV shows. When asked if he has tuned in to the show this season, Belichick said, "I missed it."
So could the Patriots end up part of a show like that one day?
"Have I been approached? I've had a lot of offers," Belichick said. "I think everything NFL Films does is worth watching. Nobody does it better than they do in terms of making football interesting. Like every show they put on that I've ever seen, I've walked away from it saying, that's pretty good. If NFL Films does it, I'm sure it'll be good, entertaining, interesting, but I haven't seen it."
Belichick added, "I'm sure I'll probably see some of it. I don't even know when it's on."

ABILENE — One of the few blemishes on the Highland girls basketball team's outstanding season came in the title game of Highland's tournament in early December when the Lady Hornets lost to Garden City, 31-24.
Highland got a chance Saturday afternoon to avenge that loss in a rematch with Garden City for the Region II-A, Division II championship.
And this time, it was the Lady Kats who were left feeling blue.
Highland (31-4) answered every challenge en route to a 47-29 victory at Abilene Christian University, advancing the Lady Hornets to the Class 1A, Division II state semifinals.
During the Monday night meeting of the Sweetwater ISD (Independent School District) Board of Trustees, a campus report was given on J.P. Cowen Early Childhood Center.
