David Phelps pitched into the sixth inning, striking out nine, Bobby Wilson had three RBIs and the New York Yankees beat the Baltimore Orioles 11-8 on Wednesday night. Phelps will start the season in the Yankees rotation because Phil Hughes will begin the year on the disabled list with a bulging disk in his back. He allowed three runs on four hits in 5 1-3 innings. Phelps walked two. Wilson had a two-run double in the second and a sacrifice fly in the sixth. Jair Jurrjens started for the Orioles, but left in the second with a bruised right rib when he was a hit by a line drive by Thomas Neal. Taylor Teagarden had a three-run home run and Nate McLouth a two-run shot for Baltimore.

Fats encourage overeating
Scientists find that fats push an "eat more" button in rats
By Stephen Ornes, 14:15 PM July 27, 2011
Fatty foods can be hard to resist and hard on your health. A high-fat diet can increase weight and the risk of heart disease, the leading cause of death in America. But many people still find it difficult to limit fats. A new study suggests why these foods are so attractive.
In a recent experiment, scientists fed fats to rats to learn more about the molecules involved in overeating. The researchers wanted to know what messages fats might send to the brain and other parts of the body. By s...

Help required regarding backup Compression
Hi I am using BE 2010 R3 and I have HP 1/8 G2 Tape Autoloader (http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF06a/12169-304612-82176-82176-82176-3319912.html)
I use HP 1.6TB LTO tapes.
Compression Type has been selected as "Hardware [if available, otherwise none]" under Tools--Options and also in the properties of Weekly backup job.
Looking into last 3 months our Weekly full backup is between 1,852,309,119,510 bytes to 1,946,504,729,824 bytes. Weekly backup used to fit into 2x1.6 TB tapes when backup was 1.9TB or 1.94TB or 1.85TB data But sometimes even when backup is 1.87 TB or 1.91 TB the backup is taking 3x1.6 TB tapes. Like this weekend it was 1.85 TB and it took 3 tapes. No settings or configurations has been changed in the BE So is this normal ?
Tape1 - 1:1
Tape2 - 1.2:1
Tape3 - 1:1
Tape1 - 1:1
Tape2 - 1.3:1
About 1.2TB of data are audio/video/office docs/pdf which doesnt change whereas rest of the data are Server's C: drive, Servers System State/Shadow copy components, 8-10 SQL databases, few gigabytes of office docs/pdf that gets updated regularly.
Any help would be much appreciated, thank you.
Comments 3 Comments • Jump to latest comment
You won't get any compression on files that are already compressed, eg. video and audio files. These would be 1:1.
Best bet is to read a very good article of pkh's below which explains compression a bit more.
Alternative ways to access Backup Exec Technical Support:
When you compressed files like videos, you might end up with more data than you have started with. This is explained in my article quoted above. Try turning off compression, you might be able to get more data onto your tapes.
Note that the native uncompressed capacity of your tapes is 800GB. The 1.6TB capacity assumes a 2:1 compression ratio which is hardly achieved in real-life.

US consumer spending up slight 0.2 percent
Thursday - 1/31/2013, 10:51am EST
By MARTIN CRUTSINGER
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. consumers increased their spending in December at a slower pace, while their income grew by the largest amount in eight years. Income surged because companies rushed to pay dividends before income taxes increased on high-earners.
The Commerce Department said Thursday that consumer spending rose 0.2 percent last month. That's slightly slower than the 0.4 percent increase in November.
Income jumped 2.6 percent in December from November, the biggest gain since December 2004. The main driver of the increase was dividend payments, which companies accelerated to beat the January rise in income tax rates.
Wages and salaries grew 0.6 percent.
Consumer spending, which accounts for about 70 percent of economic activity, is expected to slow this year. That's because consumers are receiving less take-home pay starting this month because of an increase in Social Security taxes.
Analysts predict the January report will show slower income growth because most bonuses and dividends were paid out in December.
The increase in payroll taxes already hurt consumer confidence this month. And consumers will have less money to spend at a precarious time.
The economy unexpectedly shrank in the October-December quarter at an annual rate of 0.1 percent, the government said Wednesday. The contraction was largely driven by a steep cut in defense spending. Still, the dip was a reminder of the economy's vulnerability as automatic cuts in government spending loom.
Still, Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics, predicts the economy will begin growing again in the January-March quarter. He notes that modest hiring will keep consumers spending enough to keep the economy afloat. He predicts consumer spending will grow at a lackluster 1 percent rate in the first quarter, down from a 2.2 percent rise in consumer spending in the October-December quarter.
The December increase in income and slower growth in spending pushed the saving rate to 6.5 percent of after-tax income. That's up from 4.1 percent in November and the highest savings rate since May 2009. It's likely to come down again in January, when income falls back.
For all of 2012, income rose 3.5 percent. That's the weakest increase since 2009, the final year of the Great Recession.
Still, consumers saw little increase in prices last year. A gauge of inflation preferred by the Federal Reserve was flat in December and up just 1.3 percent in 2012. That's well below the Fed's 2 percent inflation target.
Congress and the White House reached a deal on Jan. 1 to prevent income taxes from rising on all but the wealthiest Americans. But they allowed the temporary reduction in Social Security taxes to expire this year.
The rise in Social Security taxes will leave a person earning $50,000 a year with about $1,000 less in 2013. A household with two high-paid workers will have up to $4,500 less.
Some analysts have estimated that the roughly $120 billion in higher Social Security taxes could subtract up to 0.7 percentage point from growth this year.
And other policy decisions in Washington could slow growth further.
The agreement on the fiscal cliff averted income tax cuts on most consumers. But it only delayed across-the-board government spending cuts for two months. The cuts are set to take effect on March 1 if no agreement is reached to avert them.
The Fed announced Wednesday that it was keeping all its aggressive stimulus programs in place. These include $85 billion a month in bond purchases. The purchases are intended to keep long-term interest rates down to encourage spending, boost growth and reduce still-high unemployment.
The Fed also left its target for short-term rates at a record low and said it would stay there at least until unemployment, now at 7.8 percent, stays above 6.5 percent. Many economists think unemployment remained at 7.8 percent in January. The January jobs report will be released Friday.

Swift Vs. Objective-C: Why the Future Favors Swift 270

snydeq writes: InfoWorld's Paul Solt argues that It's high time to make the switch to the more approachable, full-featured Swift for iOS and OS X app dev. He writes in Infoworld: "Programming languages don't die easily, but development shops that cling to fading paradigms do. If you're developing apps for mobile devices and you haven't investigated Swift, take note: Swift will not only supplant Objective-C when it comes to developing apps for the Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and devices to come, but it will also replace C for embedded programming on Apple platforms. Thanks to several key features, Swift has the potential to become the de-facto programming language for creating immersive, responsive, consumer-facing applications for years to come."

Jeff Chery - They Get Around [Premiere]
Artist: Jeff Chery
Producer: Sam Sneed
Album: The Transition
Avg Rating: 4.1 ( 32 votes )
Denial ain't just a river in Egypt – it's also the force that's allowed countless men and women to turn a blind eye to clear and present evidence of their partners' infidelity. Though no guy ever wants to entertain the idea that his girl's cheating (and, of course, vice versa), self-deception can have dangerous, even fatal consequences, as reader fave/exclusive freestyle series alum Jeff Chery explains on new mixtape leak They Get Around. Making its world premiere in the Booth, this cut finds producer Sam Sneed serving up a melancholy, Chipmunk-sampled instrumental as the emcee spins a cautionary tale illustrating just how quickly things can turn ugly when we let lust overwhelm our better judgment. And that goes, like, quadruple when you have a loaded gun stashed under your mattress. Bad idea, kids. Seriously. If you're digging this tragic yet dopely-executed jam, you'll want to grab a copy Chery's The Transition mixtape when it drops on August 29, as well as keeping it locked for the latest on his and K. Sparks' DJBooth.net-sponsored collaborative album, Luck of the Draw.

A few thoughts: the rack beta posted here's a bit wonky. I think he's trying to say single #2 and 3 when he writes single #1 and 2. We brought a #3 and found it valuable. As far as the climbing, it's a stellar route. I'd read somewhere the word gymnastic used to describe the climbing. Tack committing on and you get the picture. It's killer.
Pitch 2 is incredible. Hands down best pitch on the route.
Pitch 3 is also really good. My partner stepped right a little early to a finger crack way right. I think this was off route, but had fun climbing. To do it right, stay mostly straight and work up and right near the top of the pitch.
Pitches 4 and 5 both felt really hard to me. Harder than the 12a. Come ready to fight. (IMO P5 could use 15 minutes with a wire brush. Definitely still some lichen and granite chiclets hanging on up there-mostly clean where it counts though)

|Hats off to Jens and Max for an awesome route! Steep and wild movement from the bottom to the top. The 5.11+ pitches are just as hard as the 12- pitch. Seems like a double rack from purple TCU to .75 and singles in the #1,#2 is a good rack + set of wires.

For the extra credit verison, you can skip the final two easy pitches and move right after P5 (the overhanging hand traverse to the flake) and climb the crux pitch of the West Face and the final overhanging chimneys on that route.
It is also possible to move right after P4 (the first of the .11+ pitches) and climb some 5.11/5.11+ cracks on the right, up through a roof, to reach the belay stance under the crux of the West Face. (Accendo Luna variation)

I'd like to go part time, that would be my dream, but it would only make sense financially for us if we have at least 2 LOs. And i'm not sure my work would let me, they are very inflexible with things like that.

I am a full time working mom, and believe me, there's no way I could have a clean house (sort of), dinner ready, lunches for LO, DH and myself, clean laundry, fed puppies, full gas tank, or anything else, if my wonderful husband didn't help as much as he does! (My mom teases me he actually does MORE than I do)... so I will also applaud those full time working dads that are also full time working at home: cooking, washing, playing, entertaining, folding clothes, mowing yards, making bottles, etc, etc ETC with a smile on their face!
I love my DH.

Its a hard job but some of us have to do it! I am very lucky in that I work full time but I get off at 3:00pm, so I still have a few hours to play with LO and she and I have Sat/Sun all day together. As much as I love being home with my baby girl... coming to work is kind of a "break" from life. I get to have adult convos, not worry about where LO is running around to next, I get to play on line, BBC, FB...shop on line..... I would much rather be a SAHM but I can't complain that I have a job and am doing whats best for our family finacialy. Also this wouldnt be possiable if my DH wasnt such a HUGE help too!!!
I personly think a FULL TIME MOM is HARDER then working full time at work then being a mommy at home.....

PORTLAND -- A 23-year-old man was arrested Friday night for allegedly attacking several passengers on a TriMet bus, and then running from police when they arrived.
Then on Monday, the district attorney's office announced the charges were dropped.
Another passenger videotaped the alleged attack and later posted it on YouTube. The video appeared to show Daniel Lee Juarez Jr. suddenly threatening passengers on the bus near SE 82nd Avenue and SE Powell Boulevard, according to Portland Police Sgt. Pete Simpson.
Juarez began shoving passengers and struck one adult male a few times in the face, Simpson said. Juarez then got off the bus and got back on to throw a garbage can, then got off and ran from arriving officers.
Raw :Surveillance video of attack on bus
Officers arrested Juarez around 9 p.m. He was jailed on charges of interfering with public transportation, harassment and disorderly conduct before getting released on Monday.
The DA's office has not said exactly why the charges were dismissed.

If you believe Kate Gosselin, her radical change in appearance is the result of "de-age!"
Still, the reality television mom has admitted to one procedure — she got a tummy tuck in 2006 (which was filmed it for the precursor to Jon & Kate Plus 8, Sextuplets and Twins: One Year Later) — but it is what she has not confessed to that could surprise us all!
"Judging by low brows and less lines between the brows, Botox is very likely," Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Ashkan Ghavami told RadarOnline.com.

"The makeup makes it a bit challenging to say accurately, but a skin tightening light pulse or serial lasers, chemical peels as well as a neck lift are all possibilities to explain the tighter jawline."
The mother-of-eight, 39, stunned during filming for her latest television exploit, Celebrity Apprentice, flaunting a very smooth and wrinkle free face!

"Fillers or fat transfer also are likely making her overall cheeks and face softer as well," Dr. Ghavami, who has not treated Gosselin, added.

Linear Clock Widget Pro
100 - 500 downloads
- Different clock
- Works well, good design
- It's a simple clock, after all
+ By Cubeactive
"Another kind of clock"
Reviewed by Anna Grace / Oct 17, 2012
Set the linear clock and place it on your home screen
Linear Clock is a new way of knowing which time it is. This app and widgets presents a stylish clock for your device, a linear timeline that lets you have more than one band.
First of all, you want to select the number of bands -depending on the version you can have more options available- and then select which information you want on each one of them. Lastly, the app will let you select the preferred color, which in the free version is only possible to have in white.
Cubeactive is the developer of Linear Clock Free, the pro version and the lite one. We feel like the free version has only a few options and could be more complete. However, the result looks pretty nice on your home screen so it's a good app for changing your clock and looking at the date and hour in a different way.
Make your home screen a bit more linear with the various widgets which you can customize with various themes and scale options, the useful wizards will help you to achieve this without difficulty.
• Two size widgets
• Up to 3 bands per widget (2 for small sized widgets)
• Time band
• Day of the week band
• Date band
• Month band
• Year band
• Two types of borders
• 11 Types of color schemes
• Full screen app
--- Touch the right bottom corner of a widget to reconfigure the widget. ---
--- Read first ---
This app is tested on a large variety of Android installations, however it is impossible for the developer to test on all types of Android devices and launchers that are available. Therefor it is recommended to first try out the free version of Linear Clock before purchasing the pro edition.
- Added: 12 hour band.
- Changed: It is now possible to use the widget on your lock screen (Android 4.2.2+)
Some lists where this application appears: Reviewed by Anna Grace.
Finally added the 12 hour band. What took you so long? You could have been a millionaire by now!
This is an excellent app. The widget is clean and looks really slick.
I simply love the concept of this clock. Worth every cent! Wish there were custom styles though.
I would be willing to pay for this widget because it's an awesome concept, but I can't turn off military time. If this were possible, I would buy it without a second thought!
Widget displays far smaller than widget size. Clocks can not be stacked making one clock. Glass mode needs greater contrast for text and transparency option. Could be great just not there yet. New version much better. As far as the padding issue of Launcher's that is true, but I have several widgets that do stack well. That is except those that pad themselves.
This is a cool idea, and generally looks decent on my home screen. Here's what it needs to reach 5 stars: 1) The widget doesn't resize gracefully. It's 2013, ICS and JB are all over the place. Stop adding multiple entries to my widgets list for different sizes! Give us ONE widget that resizes to whatever size we like. 2) TONS of wasted space on the left and right side of the 4x2 widget on my Gal

From 1989 to 1993, ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' aired on American free TV. Also in the 90s, several more or less official comics were released for young readers (and, unbeknownst to the House of Mouse, the growing ranks of dedicated fans). In January 2003, however, one guy from New York City outdid it all single-handedly when he published something he had worked on for three years: ''FanFic/OfMiceAndMayhem''.
It is a webcomic, or rather a web graphic novel: It follows a comicbook page layout and, unlike the serial format of most web fiction, the entire story--all 232 pages, including a front and back cover--was published at once.
Instead of throwing the show's concept over and making up something entirely new, ''FanFic/OfMiceAndMayhem'' picks up where the show left, and that is presumably after the episode "Good Times, Bat Times". Three of [[EnsembleDarkhorse the most popular one-shot characters]] have joined the Rescue Rangers (and been given an extra popularity boost), and this extra personnel, together with their individual abilities, is direly needed on the case the Rangers are thrown into, a case that doesn't only [[DarkerAndEdgier go beyond anything ever seen in official material]], but also takes several months to solve. Since the target audience isn't the same as the show's at that time, namely the first generation of fans who had all grown up by then rather than the kids who watched CDRR on Toon Disney, the author could increase the overall intensity by multiple notches.
While some accuse it of being a bad excuse for blatant {{Shipping}} promotion, most fans regard ''FanFic/OfMiceAndMayhem'' as one of the greatest creations ever done by a Rescue Rangers fan and "up there" together with the FanFiction epic ''Fanfic/RhymeAndReason''. It is often considered superior to the show as well as the official comics, both story-wise and drawings-wise, and it received fandom awards by the dozen.

Prepare for a sleepless night or two after taking it in. [[note]]Sadly, the artist's original site, http://www.electricfishmusic.com/001.html, appears to be down permanently.[[/note]]
Fans will be delighted to know that the author ''is'' planning a sequel, but it won't be finished for some time.
!!Of Tropes and Mayhem:
* EightiesHair: Gadget's famously poofy blond mane is [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] when she returns with a more modern hairstyle.
* AnimalTesting: Nimnul did that in his lab in the {{Flashback}}.
* BaldOfEvil: Ferrante. In fact, even [[spoiler:Gadget]] when the chip's effect kicks in.
* BigBad: Dr. Snow.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:Gadget]] plus a couple of nameless rat assassins.
* CannotSpitItOut: Both Chip and Gadget, but especially Chip. Although he is deeply in love with her, he'd rather wish her to find another mouse someday than to spend her life with someone from another species with whom she cannot have a family.
* ContinuityNod: Chip and Dale mention their past rivalries over girls, particularly Gadget. Dale is over Gadget by this point, but Chip jokes about missing the competitions and having to develop a crush on Foxglove just to retain it. Dale isn't amused.
** The body swap episode also gets referenced. [[spoiler: It actually becomes a plot point for the grand finale.]]
* ConverseWithTheUnconscious: Gadget confesses her love to Chip as he is lying before her unconscious after [[spoiler:having caught the poisoned dart with his body]].
* DarkerAndEdgier
* TheDragon: Ferrante.
* EveryoneCanSeeIt
* EveryoneKnowsMorse: Monty communicates with Chip this way at one point during a mission.
* {{Expy}}: Besides the [[WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers canonical Dan Rather]] expy Stan Blather; the first family is clearly a spoof of the [[UsefulNotes/BillClinton Clintons]], and [[spoiler:the Middle Eastern dictator Gagdet assassinated looks like Saddam Hussein.]]
* FirstKiss, TrueLovesKiss: Probably the most famous of 232 pages, did wonders on the fandom.
* FollowTheLeader: ''Of Mice and Mayhem'' was the first but not the last story in which Tammy is a nurse.
* FunetikAksent: Monterey Jack's extreme (yet fake) [[LandDownUnder Aussie]] speak.
* FurryFemaleMane: Subverted in that [[spoiler:the number one example of this trope, Gadget, spends most of the story shaved "bald"]].
* GovernmentAgencyOfFiction: [[spoiler:Snow and Ferrante are working for the U.S. government after all]].
* GovernmentConspiracy: What most of the story is about.
* HeKnowsTooMuch: The attempted liquidation of [[spoiler:Chip]].
* INeedToGoIronMyDog
--> '''Gadget:''' I think I left the thingy on the whatzit....
* InterspeciesRomance: Well, this is bordering on a shipping fic. The pairings are Chip×Gadget and Dale×Foxglove.
* ImportantHaircut: Gadget.
* InnocenceLost: Gadget has to overcome her, albeit brief, past as [[spoiler:an assassin and even having killed a human under mind control]].
* KickTheSonOfABitch: [[spoiler:The Arabian dictator whom Gadget kills]] ''really'' deserves it.
* LeaveTheTwoLovebirdsAlone: When Gadget meets Chip at the White House, the other Rangers stay back for a very good reason.
* LegoGenetics: Gadget discovers that [[spoiler: the time Nimnul mixed up the Rangers' DNA left her genetically compatible with chipmunks.]]
* LoveHurts: Chip and Gadget.
* ManchurianAgent: [[spoiler:Gadget as the MAP]].
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:Gadget after realizing what she had done under mind control]].
* MyLifeFlashedBeforeMyEyes: [[spoiler:Happens to Gadget while the poisoned dart is closing in on her]]. Albeit [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] with the words "Oh- Here comes the 'Life Flashback'"
* NonHumansLackAttributes: Of course this always applied to Chip and Dale [[spoiler: but Gadget has a few nude scenes in which whatever she might have is covered with fur as she explains herself.]]
* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler:Gadget]].
* OurPresidentsAreDifferent: President Logan, the President Personable who is actually unaware of the GovernmentConspiracy.
* PantslessMalesFullyDressedFemales: While ''CDRR'' plays this straight in general, Gadget ends up spending a large part of the story wearing nothing but a black turtleneck. On the other hand, Foxglove, who doesn't wear anything in the show, is now fully clothed ([[BarefootCartoonAnimal except for shoes]]).
* PoliceAreUseless: To be expected in ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' FanFic, but the FBI team that raided Nimnul's lab in the {{Flashback}} was [[AvertedTrope quite efficient]], as are police forces later on in the story.
* RightOnTheTick: The mind control chip makes [[spoiler:Gadget go and kill a leader]] at 9 o'clock unless [[spoiler:she]] is sedated well enough. The Rangers experience this behavior first hand the morning after the rescue.
* SheCleansUpNicely: Gadget is wearing a dress and a new hairdo when she comes to take Chip home, mind you she has been wearing dresses in the show for disguise purposes only.
* ShoutOut: The first daughter shares her first name with TressMacNeille (voice of both Chip and Gadget on the series).
** And then there are Tress's [[{{Pokemon}} Pikachu]] plush, a poison [[GeniusBonus named after a Roland music workstation]]...
** Roy Batty, the leader of the movie-addicted bat clan, is named after Rutger Hauer's character, the sort of BigBad, in ''Film/BladeRunner''. The bat in question might indeed have watched ''Film/BladeRunner'' once too often and decided to adopt the name.
** Gadget felt the need to [[VideoGame/StarFox do a barrel roll.]]
** Tress has a ''PowerpuffGirls'' T-shirt.
* ShrineToTheFallen: Gadget's room is left as-is and not repurposed.
* SpoilerOpening: The cover gives away several key scenes in advance.
* TakingTheBullet: [[spoiler:Chip takes the poisoned dart fired at Gadget]].
* ThePowerOfLove: Gadget is [[spoiler:a mind-controlled assassin, captured by two killer rats, a poisoned dart is shot at her from a rifle]], and Chip comes to save her.
* TimeSkip: Number one occurs between [[spoiler:losing Gadget and finding a possible trail to her]], number two skips [[spoiler:Chip's healing time in Washington and Gadget's therapy at home]].
* TrojanHorse: Chip and Dale's cage.

Gold Fields Limited (Gold Fields) (JSE, NYSE, NASDAQ Dubai: GFI) and Compañia de Minas Buenaventura S.A.A. (Buenaventura) (NYSE, BVN; Lima Stock Exchange: BUE.LM) today announced an update on the Chucapaca exploration project in the southern Peruvian region of Moquegua. The project is a joint venture by Gold Fields (51%) and Buenaventura (49%) and operated by Gold Fields.
The partners have studied the viability of a large open-pit operation capable of sustaining a 30,000 tonnes per day throughput. A first draft of the feasibility study has been completed and as a result of relatively high capital and operating costs this option would not have delivered acceptable project returns.
Consequently, further study work will have to be performed by the joint venture focusing on value engineering the project to achieve the expected returns. Future work will mainly include the following:
- Analysing different options for mine development, including an underground or a combined open-pit underground operation, and alternative throughput levels;
- Re-establishing exploration to add resource flexibility, once the required permits are granted; and,
- Optimising capital and project operating costs.
The partners reiterate their commitment to unlocking the potential of the Chucapaca project, which will need the support of all stakeholders, particularly neighbouring communities. Gold Fields has built a close relationship with them and expects to continue working together through this phase of the project.Notes to editors About Gold Fields Gold Fields is one of the world's largest unhedged producers of gold with attributable annualised production of 3.6 million gold equivalent ounces from eight operating mines in Australia, Ghana, Peru and South Africa. Gold Fields also has an extensive and diverse global growth pipeline with four major projects in resource development and feasibility, with construction decisions expected in the next 18 to 24 months. Gold Fields has total attributable gold equivalent Mineral Reserves of 76.7 million ounces and Mineral Resources of 225.4 million ounces. Gold Fields is listed on the JSE Limited (primary listing), the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NASDAQ Dubai Limited, Euronext in Brussels (NYX) and the Swiss Exchange (SWX).

It was the most talked about signing of 2013 when George North moved to Northampton and the young Welsh wing has certainly shown why.
Still just in the early stages of his professional career he is already rated as one of the best wingers in the world, and enhanced his reputation no end on the 2013 British and Irish Lions tour to Australia, where he scored in the victorious first and third tests.
George was raised in Anglesey, Wales following a move from Hong Kong when he was two years old and is fluent in the Welsh language. Before being called up to the international squad, George had played just six matches for the Scarlets' first team and soon proved his worth in the side.
It took just six minutes for George to register his first international try, against South Africa in November 2010, and when he crossed the whitewash later in the game he became the youngest player to score twice against a major rugby nation on his debut.
The Kings Lynn-born winger is also the youngest ever try scorer at a Rugby World Cup, the youngest player to have scored 10 international tries, and the first player to have won 20 caps for Wales while still in his teens.
A first try for the Saints had to wait until the fourth round of the 2013/14 Aviva Premiership against Sale Sharks, but by that stage he had already brilliantly laid on the league's try of the season for Jamie Elliott at Kingsholm.
His next appearance against the Cherry and whites came in the opening game of the Saints' Aviva Premiership title defence and George duly scored his first hat-trick for the club in a 53-6 drubbing.

The return of Kevin Garnett
Celtics' big is again statistically relevant; Dalembert ranks No. 1 on Barometer
In a sense, this is what the Boston Celtics were supposed to be in the first place.
Remember when Kevin Garnett first landed in Boston five years ago? The Celtics' new golden era was about to be ushered in, reigned over by Garnett, -- then one of the league's five best players -- longtime Boston captain Paul Pierce and the best long-range shooter in league history, Ray Allen.
We didn't know how the lineup was going to work out. Young center Kendrick Perkins had come straight out of high school in Houston and hadn't really found a niche. Young point guard Rajon Rondo showed promise, but with the new "big three" dominating the ball, we weren't sure how such a poor shooter would fit in the lineup.
As we know now, Danny Ainge's vision for his new Celtics couldn't have worked better that first season, as Boston won 66 games and the franchise's first championship in 22 years. Perkins proved to be an essential defensive anchor in the pivot, while Rondo meshed well with the veterans despite his shooting problems. While Boston remained at or near the top of the East for the next five years, Ainge's vision gradually shifted. The big three eventually handed the baton off to Rondo, who increasingly came to dominate everything the Celtics did on the offensive end.
Flash to the present. Garnett and Pierce are considerably older than when they first came together. Allen is coming off the bench for the Miami Heat, and Perkins has been in Oklahoma City for quite a while. Then in the midst of a flagging season, during which Rondo continued to dominate the offensive attack, the star point guard went down with a season-ending knee injury. Dust off those old press conference photographs, because Ainge's original vision is back in focus. And really, the Celtics had no choice.

What about cloistered nuns? Monks? They're not married, probably don't form deep bonds with others, yet do they matter?
They all matter.
We all matter.
You matter.
I hate "what if" scenarios, but what if you were in a car accident next week and became a quadriplegic? You'd STILL matter, but I bet you'd have thoughts about how good you used to have it and you'd wonder why you wasted so much time feeling sorry for yourself, prior to becoming a quadriplegic.
Just sayin' We all have our own conditions to deal with. We need to find joy in the life we have today, for this is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad.

Strength, Cardio, and Endurance
I used to be one of those people who only did cardio. Cardio is great and it does result in fast weight loss, but it is not really good by itself. You'll be thin but flabby. If you incorporate strength, your muscles will get toned and you will lose inches. I think I look much better since incorporating strength exercises. I realized endurance is important too. Having a couple of days when you do a long workout is good. You will build more energy to tackle your day and keep up your workouts.

Don't Put So Much Emotion into Food
I know most people are thinking, "Yeah right!" I'll admit - this is easier said than done. I think so many people (including myself) try to stimulate themselves with food. Here are my tips to avoid doing this - 1) Get into a eating routine. Find healthy things that can easily work with your schedule. 2) Find something healthy that can excite/stimulate you daily. 3) Exercise and track - think of food as fuel not fun. I find the more control I have over my eating the more I enjoy eating my food.

Calculate, Track, and Measure Your Recipes
When I cook, I often take the time to calculate/track/measure everything I put into a recipe. Sparkrecipes don't allow for a lot of flexibility, so what I do is put my recipes into "Food Groupings". I measure out each ingredient and enter it in to the food grouping. I, then, label the grouping with my recipe name. After cooking my meal, I separate the recipe into equal containers. If I separate them into 10 equal containers, then I enter .10 of the recipe as a meal.

I've been eating pretty unhealthy and have barely exercised for the last month. I've been fortunate enough not to gain weight (don't ask me how). Despite not gaining weight and living this way for almost a month, my body feels off. I feel sluggish, weak, and gross. I decided to get back on track to do my body good. We get so caught up in numbers sometimes that we forget the real purpose of a healthy lifestyle - to be healthy. Don't do it for the scale, do it for a healthier you.

When striving towards a health goal, don't compare yourself with others. You have a unique body with unique strengths and limitations. Rather than comparing yourself with others, compare yourself with you. Track your progress and celebrate what you have already achieved (whether small or big).
- Submitted by SILVERVANILLA84 7/16/2010 in Motivation | 2 Comments
Strive to eat breakfast, pack your lunch, and cook dinner. Avoid buying (unless you already what you are going to get) - It's cheaper and healthier. Look up recipes and make big batches of healthy meals. Divide them into reasonable portions so they are ready for eating throughout the week.

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney just wrapped up questions from the press about the ongoing Hilary Rosen vs Ann Romney controversy. Carney refused to condemn Rosen's comments and even tried to say he wasn't aware of exactly which "Hilary Rosen" was embroiled in the controversy, despite Rosen visiting the White House more than 35 times in the past three years.
Rosen works at the same PR firm as former White House Communications Director Anita Dunn. That same PR firm represented Sandra Fluke during the "birth control controversy."
DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, David Axelrod and First Lady Michelle Obama have all denounced Rosen's comments.

Model of Groundwater Flow
July 1, 2010
Model of Groundwater Flow A model of groundwater flow where yellow lines indicate direction of water flow, while red spheres represent heterogeneities that are present in most natural aquifer formations. The link between model heterogeneities and actual formation heterogeneities is made in a statistical sense--although model and actual formations look quite different, they are statistically equivalent. The resulting flow is not uniform and results in hydrodynamic dispersion. The goal of the modeling effort was to establish a link between formations' heterogeneities and resulting dispersion using the idealized model. With increasing population growth and reliance on groundwater sources for drinking water, the protection of groundwater supplies has become increasingly important. Computer models are frequently used to analyze regional groundwater flow patterns and assess the impacts of pumping and potential contamination sources. To capitalize on the recent explosion in computing power, SUNY at Buffalo researchers are developing the next generation of groundwater flow models. Implemented on massively parallel supercomputers, the models will be capable of representing the combined influence of millions of hydrologic features such as rivers, lakes, pumping wells, and contamination sources.

Joe Cole is excited about working for new Chelsea boss Luiz Felipe Scolari.
The midfielder said: "I'm getting a good vibe from Scolari. It is early days but he seems very approachable and has a huge football pedigree. I'm really excited to play for him, I'm chomping at the bit to get fit and out there.
"The way he sets his teams up, I've been waiting for it my entire career - a manager who wants to play the right way. I'm nearly 27 now and have been waiting for someone like him to come along.
"He already has the respect of the boys and has settled in nicely. I think it's going to be happy days for everyone."
Cole also revealed he has been talking to Portugal ace Paulo Ferreira, who played under Scolari at Euro 2008.
He added: "From what I know about the way he set up Portugal and Brazil, and watching them play it was beautiful football, there are plenty of players who like to get the ball down, I'm so excited.
"I spoke to Paulo about him and people who have played for him have a lot of respect for him and say what a good manager he is.
"That's a good sign because normally whenever you speak to people about a manager you often get mixed opinions. But everybody seems very complimentary."

The Har-Dee-Dar Bird: One Of My Favorites
One of my favorite birds in South Africa is the "Har-dee-dar" bird.  It's proper name is the Hadeda Ibis so I can understand where the informal name came from.
Even more telling is listening the Hadeda – it truly sounds like it says "har-dee-dar" as it flys over your house.  And it is LOUD – you can't miss identifying a har-dee-dar.
B.G.'s mom once had overseas guests that stayed in a local hotel. When they heard the "HAR-DEE-DAR" call in the middle of the night they quickly got dressed and came out of their hotel room – thinking they heard some type of emergency siren!
Har-dee-dars are everywhere in South Africa (at least around the Garden Route where I spend most of my time). They especially like urban neighborhoods and can be seen grazing next to the roadsides. They are large birds – not your typically sparrow or grackle.
Each evening they fly in small groups to a nesting location, typically a tree in the neighborhood. You can hear them call (scream!)  "HAR-DEE-DAR…HA-DEE-DAR" in the evening before they roost (and first thing in the morning on the rare days I try to sleep in!).
Even though they are wild birds they seem very familiar and "part of the family" – kind of like the cat that hangs around your house. They won't eat out of your hand and fly off when you get near them, but that doesn't stop them from having the run of your yard and neighborhood. They just keep coming back…
I miss the har-dee-dars when I return to Texas. There are lots of great bids but none quite as prominent (and loud!) in the neighborhood as the har-dee-dar. At least I can try to sleep in on those rare days – now if something could be done about the neighborhood dogs…
What do you think? Please add your comments by clicking on the title above ("The Har-Dee-Dar Bird"….)

True. Some pieces of gear achieve legendary status. I once dropped a 283 in a swimming pool, dried it for a couple of days, and still use it occasionally. In many ways, my old 283s achieve more accurate exposures than my insanely expensive Canon speedlights.

Re: West to East - Trans-Pacific to Japan
Hi Guys,
Thanks for your excellent advice and support. I think this process may work, if I plan it right. Because it's unlikely to find a well-outfitted boat, ready to go, I have kept my purchase price-range pretty low. Of course, $20K is better than $25K
My plan is to live aboard at a CA marina while working on the boat, depending on when it's purchased, from about September-February (not this year though) -- so, I have time. That said, anywhere on the West Coast is not completely out of the question (though the winter weather up north would be an issue).
I will budget $10K for outfitting, though this could be a lowball figure. I would need a fairly shipshape boat, to start.
Would do shakedown coastal cruises, and when ready head for Hawaii by late Feb. I think a Pacific voyage would have to commence by about May 1, latest, from Hawaii. These dates could be moved earlier by a month -- I'm musing on a latest departure here.
Another option would be to purchase a boat in Hawaii and do inter-island shakedowns. But as has been pointed out, dry-dock facilities are quite costly, and the market is also limited. In any case, I will have about a year free.
Just now, I am contemplating just how crazy or impossible my scheme really is. I would need some luck and good fortune, I believe.

TNT's 'Trust Me' tumbles - Entertainment News, TV News, Media - VarietyFaring particularly well has been USA Network, which has seen its spy thriller "Burn Notice" garner series-best numbers going against original episodes of "Eleventh Hour," "Private Practice" and "ER" Thursdays at 10 p.m. The cable show beat out all three broadcast series in men 18-34 last week -- and bested a repeat of "ER" on the sibling Peacock in total viewers, 5.4 million to 4.3 million.

Another great show! Really, my must see stuff is starting to move more to the cable stations. Trust Me is great, Burn Notice is amazing and Psych is a family favorite at our house.
I love my awesome crazy wonderful friends!!

'Burn Notice' star getting big raise
Jeffrey Donovan more than doubles current salary
By Nellie Andreeva
The Hollywood Reporter
Feb 6, 2009, 01:00 AM ET
Jeffrey Donovan (Getty Images photo)
'Burn Notice' star getting big raiseHe plays the coolest guy on TV. Now Jeffrey Donovan has a cool new raise to match.
The star of USA Network's breakout hit "Burn Notice" has renegotiated his pact with the series' producer, Fox TV Studios.
Under the new agreement, Donovan will be paid $125,000-$150,000 an episode, a big bump from the $55,000 he used to make.
As is the practice, especially in cable, the cost of the pay increase will be shared between FTVS and USA.
Donovan's new deal also adds one year to his original seven-year contract for the show.
"Notice," which launched in July 2007, is in the midst of the winter portion of its second season.
On the stylish action dramedy, Donovan plays Michael Westen, a blacklisted former spy helping people in need while tracking down the people who burned him.
It has become a star-making role for Donovan, who before that toplined USA's short-lived series "Touching Evil." He went on to co-star in Clint Eastwood's "Changeling."
"Burn Notice" ranks as the top cable drama series among adults 18-49. Its winter premiere two weeks ago hit a series high in the 18-49, which was eclipsed by a demo record last week.

Roger needs a bit of pace to work with to be able to beat the top guys.
Anyway, I think next year will be fine. Maybe even win a Slam. After that it'll get tougher and tougher. I think with his serve and forehand on a good day, as well as improved volleying skills, he'll still be a threat, but not as much as he is now. I see an Agassi like career if he wants to play like that. Some early exits, but also 1 or two Slam semis/finals or even a win very late in his career. The guy is so extremely talented. He'll become streakier and streakier, but when he gets redhot there will always be few players that can keep up.
I'll be optimistic: He'll win a Slam in 2013, make 1 slam final in 2014. And then in 2015 and 16 he'll win a final Slam to finish at 19, as well as another olympic appearance (and hopefully a medal in 1 of three disciplines) in Rio
Highly optimistic! I don't think Roger would be playing from 2015 onwards and even if he plays I doubt he will win any slam from 2015 onwards. I would be only happy to be proved wrong
