'The Newsroom' Season 2, episode 7: 'Red Team III' faces the music on Operation GenoaAdd to Favorites | The Newsroom
Operation Genoa has hit the fan.
If the preceding story opened the gate just a bit on the erosion of ACN's report about the alleged use of sarin gas by U.S. troops overseas, "Red Team III" -- Sunday's (Aug. 25) episode of HBO's "The Newsroom" written, as all of the show's teleplays this season have been, by series creator Aaron Sorkin -- swung that gate wide open, as network lawyer Rebecca ( Marcia Gay Harden) played hardball in determining what went wrong.
Don ( Thomas Sadoski) started the hour in the hot seat, squarely putting the blame on Jerry Dantana ( Hamish Linklater) for the circumstances that had brought ACN "to its knees." Jerry's wrongful-termination lawsuit against the network was a prime reason behind the staff depositions, and Don appealed to Rebecca to put an end to the "insane" proceedings.
She couldn't, because of what Jerry claimed was an "institutional failure" for which he was made the scapegoat. Rebecca wanted Don's confirmation that there were "holes in the [Genoa] story," and while he said there were, he conceded it would have helped if they'd been found before the story hit the air.
Seated next across from Rebecca and her team: Jim ( John Gallagher Jr.), who explained he "wasn't in the loop" on Genoa because he'd been covering the Romney campaign in New Hampshire. Ultimately, he confessed he basically had given himself that assignment to get away from Maggie ( Alison Pill) because of his feelings for her, though she was living with Don.
Neal ( Dev Patel) took the chair next, recalling what he thought of the initial presentation of the Genoa information to the Red Team members -- including an early hint that Jerry had tampered with the crucial recording of an interview with a retired Marine general.
The next witness was Sloan ( Olivia Munn), who recalled Will's ( Jeff Daniels) reaction to the evidence. Will surprised the room of colleagues by revealing he'd already heard the Genoa story, which others -- particularly Mac ( Emily Mortimer) -- had taken great pains to keep him away from, wanting him to be as objective as possible if called for Red Team duty.
During a long flashback, Jim expressed doubts about the Genoa story because Jerry was leading the probe. "I don't know you," Jim told Jerry. And Don worried about possible danger to American soldiers by running the story, adding "there could be riots here at home, too."
After a lengthy silence, a clearly troubled Will gave his pronouncement on what had been offered: "I trust Charlie and Mac." To which Charlie ( Sam Waterston) declared to everyone present, "OK, we're going [with the story]. Lock it down."
The "ACN Reports" special on Operation Genoa, anchored by Will, mirrored CNN's similarly controversial 1998 Operation Tailwind report (on which Sorkin based Genoa). A highly dramatic music score accompanied visuals of the ACN employees watching and in certain cases -- Charlie! -- pacing as the story went out to the masses.
Regular viewers of 'The Newsroom" already knew what was in the report, so there was little need to hear it all again. And as the related montage sequence ended, Will closed the Genoa telecast by mentioning, "The Pentagon declined our request for an interview:"
It didn't take long for Charlie to get a phone call from the interviewed (and edited) general, who was "screaming" about his words being used out of context. Charlie initially chalked it up to "cold feet" on the part of the general, and Mac maintained there was nothing to worry about since they had the general "on film."
The morning after the Genoa telecast, Mac nervously awaited a response -- any response -- from the Pentagon. There was tempered joy in Charlie's office as he and Will celebrated overnight ratings for the program that Will termed "an 'I Love Lucy' number," indicating a huge viewership. But Charlie remained worried that a shoe was about to drop.
While Maggie was being deposed again, Rebecca informed her that the Pentagon was taking so long to respond because the attorney general was being brought into the matter. Sloan then recalled a staff meeting called by Charlie to ensure that everyone still stood by the story, and they did.
"Right Now" anchor Elliot Hirsch ( David Harbour), just about the only person at ACN still untouched by Genoa, was enlisted to conduct an follow-up interview with one of the sources, meant to reinforce ACN's position. And when the source revealed on the air that he had suffered a "traumatic brain injury" while on active duty, sudden panic about his reliability swept through the building.
A deceptively calm Mac told Will, "There's a problem with the story." To which he only could reply, "I know."
Yet another Red Team meeting followed, with Jerry trying to counter the concerns of others. And once Maggie stated that Jerry had been the only one in the room with the general during the interview, the concern grew that much bigger.
After Will said his source had told him to stand by the story, Charlie paid a D.C. visit to his own Deep Throat: purported government spy Shep ( Frank Wood), who had visited him earlier with worries that the Genoa investigation was even happening,
Though Charlie wanted confirmation on Genoa, Shep had his own story to tell ... about his son, who had gotten a job as an ACN summer intern, but later was let go. He then went to rehab, and the last photo an enraged Shep showed a shocked Charlie was of the son's funeral a year earlier.
Charlie explained the son had been posting opinions of ACN operations on the Internet while working there and, despite Neal's warnings, had continued to. "He deserved to be fired," Charlie stated -- earning him a sharp slap across the face from Shep, who admitted he vengefully had help set Charlie up for a fall, the means of which was Genoa.
Rebecca suggested to Jim in the deposition room that Mac ultimately may have been at fault for the Genoa report, based on her having possibly asked the final military witness leading questions "based on the information that came before." And Mac realized she might be culpable, inspiring Will to try to help her let herself off the hook.
In the control room soon after, the delivery of a new digital clock prompted Mac to check the timing on the tape of the general's interview. It didn't take her long to determine an anomaly in the "shot clock" of the basketball game shown in the background.
She told Jerry she saw it jump "from :19 to :03 to :02 to :14." The jig was up for Jerry, yet he remained staunch about what he'd done. When Mac clearly didn't accept that ("Who's ever going to believe us again?"), he said, "I think I shouldn't say anything more until I've talked to a lawyer."
The controversial movie "Innocence of Muslims" also caused a newsroom stir because of the forceful demonstrations it was sparking in Egypt and Libya. The attack on the U.S. embassy in Benghazi heightened the alarm, but everything else came to a literal halt when a tearful Mac announced, "We have to retract Genoa tonight. All of it."
"That was our top story, not Benghazi," Will told Rebecca later, noting ACN's trust in outside sources had been shot. And he added that in a subsequent meeting (depicted in the story), Charlie told network owner Leona Lansing ( Jane Fonda) that he, Will and Mac were going to resign. "It's what has to happen," Charlie reasoned.
But Leona, preoccupied with not having been able to meet Daniel Craig at a benefit screening of "Skyfall" that night, would have none of it: "You will resign when I fire you out of petty malice, and not before." And stating her love for ACN, she told those present that despite the network's unprofitability, "You make me so proud."
Rebecca suddenly popped in and advised against accepting the resignations, prompting Leona to command the lawyer not to "horn in on my honorable thing."
"We don't have the trust of the public anymore!" Charlie retorted. And matching his volume, Leona gave very direct marching orders: "Get it back!"
Cut to black -- and to an extended break. "The Newsroom" returns Sunday, Sept. 8, with the start of its two-part season-ender keyed to Election Night 2012.

I really need to get back into the groove, Easter weekend has thrown me off. Plus the fact that my brother keeps bringing home unhealthy foods! >:/
So my calorie count for today so far is right at 400. I skipped breakfast today cause I was running late, had chicken salad on cracker and tomato soup for lunch. Now I just have to force myself to go workout. That's the hard part.

Texans-Broncos breakdown
By John McClain | September 23, 2012 | Updated: September 24, 2012 7:43am
Photo By Brett Coomer
Arian Foster (23) was the workhorse on Sunday, making would-be Broncos tacklers miss to the tune of 105 yards rushing on 25 carries. He also caught a 3-yard TD pass.
Texans' game balls
- Matt Schaub, quarterback
He tied a career high with four touchdown passes. He threw for 290 yards. He threw one bad pass, and it was intercepted. He withstood consecutive personal-foul penalties for hits to his head and played with a bloody ear.
- J.J. Watt, defensive end
Mega-Watt had another phenomenal performance. He had seven tackles, including six unassisted. He had 2½ sacks, four tackles for loss and three quarterback hits. For the first time this season, he didn't deflect a pass at the line of scrimmage.
- Arian Foster, running back
For the third consecutive game, he carried at least 25 times. He had 105 yards rushing, averaging 4.2 yards a carry. He also scored a touchdown on a 3-yard pass in which he outraced the Broncos to the corner of the end zone.
Looking ahead to the Titans
- Quarterback Matt Schaub needs better pass protection. He was sacked one time - on the Texans' first play for a safety - but he got hit too many times. His blockers have to do a better job, and that's not just the linemen.
- Receiver Andre Johnson needs to get the ball more. He caught only two passes against the Broncos - a 60-yard touchdown and a 12-yard reception on third-and-6 late in the game when they were trying to run out the clock.
- The defensive players dropped at least four interceptions against the Broncos. They might spend extra time after practice working on catching the ball, but they were fortunate the dropped interceptions didn't hurt them Sunday.

Washington, DC - L. Toni Lewis, MD, Chair of SEIU Healthcare, shared this statement today in support of the Direct Care Job Quality Improvement Act and the revision of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) to include all homecare workers:
"We are in the midst of a national crisis of care. Homecare workers around this country are caring for older Americans and people with disabilities who want to live with dignity. Yet these same workers are being deprived of a similar dignity that comes with a good job that can feed and provide for a family.
"This is not just a homecare worker issue: poverty wages, no sick time and no healthcare coverage results in very high turnover rates--in some states as high as 90 percent - and men and women who want to remain at home can find themselves struggling to find or keep the help they need.
"The Direct Care Job Quality Improvement Act is a tremendous step forward in delivering the minimum wage and overtime protections that would help stabilize this growing profession and create the kind of jobs that can sustain a family and create new opportunities for job growth and advancement by:
- Ensuring that home care workers receive the same federal minimum wage and overtime protections of the Fair Labor Standards Act that other workers enjoy.
- Improving federal and state data collection and oversight with respect to the direct care workforce; and
- Establishing a grant program to help states improve direct care worker recruitment, retention, and training.
"500,000 homecare worker have united in SEIU to improve the quality of their work and provide the highest quality of care to their clients, but a union is not enough when labor regulations have not kept pace with the reality of a rapidly growing and essential part of the healthcare industry.
"The Fair Labor Standards Act must be revised to include the more than two million homecare workers it presently excludes. This legislation coupled with the swift action of the Department of Labor to include homecare workers under minimum wage and overtime protections will mean that millions of working women and men who are called to this work will enjoy the same protections as other workers. As our country struggles not just to create jobs, but to create good jobs, we cannot miss this opportunity."
With 2.2 million members in Canada, the United States and Puerto Rico, SEIU is the fastest-growing union in the Americas. Focused on uniting workers in healthcare, public services and property services, SEIU members are winning better wages, healthcare and more secure jobs for our communities, while uniting their strength with their counterparts around the world to help ensure that workers--not just corporations and CEOs--benefit from today's global economy.

Sidewalk improvements require Broadway drivers' patience
Will help Alamo Heights meet ADA requirements
ALAMO HEIGHTS, Texas - During the month of July drivers may be seeing more traffic cones on Broadway, but eventually the construction will pay off, helping the city of Alamo Heights meet Americans with Disabilities Act requirements on the sidewalks.
It's welcomed news to residents who struggle to navigate out of date sidewalks with sharp curbs and narrow passages. Residents such as Tara Staglik loves living in Alamo Heights, but finds getting around Broadway one serious and daily drawback.
"Ideally it's good because everything is there," Staglik said. "But when you have to spend five minutes in reverse with your head over your right shoulder asking, 'is it clear? Is it clear?', you might have a problem."
It's not a bad problem for a small city like Alamo Heights to have. Many businesses want the kind of shopper who lives there, and those shoppers tend to like the school system there, creating a bustling community of residents and visitors who use Broadway as their main street.
"Going through the main corridor, trying to find a parking space, dropping off shoes, picking up dry cleaning, getting in and out, is one of the major binds of my daily routine," said Travis Capps, a nearby resident.
The solutions to the congestion continue to be offered and implemented, but a deteriorating roadway and obsolete sidewalks are a concern for everyone. Public Works Director Patrick Sullivan explained how the summer will mean more traffic cones, but also improvements.
"The ramps are being constructed to make accessibility for people who have special needs and at this point there will be improvements to access the school," said Sullivan.
The area of Broadway at Cambridge Elementary is one of the areas getting a much needed upgrade to help parents and children who need better sidewalks if they want to avoid driving a car. He noted that more improvements are coming, but patience will come in handy.

Alabama Paying $580,000 Over Immigration Law
Alabama has agreed to pay another $230,000 to civil rights groups that sued over Alabama's immigration law.
The agreement announced Monday brings the total paid by the state government to $580,000. Monday's agreement stemmed from a 2011 suit over a portion of the law that barred business transactions between the state and anyone who could not prove citizenship. The law prevented some people from renewing their mobile home registration tags, but the suit ended the enforcement of that aspect of the law.
The state last year paid $350,000 to some of the same groups that challenged other parts of the law.
Southern Poverty Law Center attorney Sam Brooke says the payments show the cost of the immigration law to taxpayers. Others participating included the National Immigration Law Center and ACLU.

What's so good?
By Hannah Simon | Dec 02, 2010 | Total plays: 51,654
"You," the title track off the EP, has been out for a while (Pitchfork was talking about it back in April), but from what I've seen, it only started gaining popularity in the blogosphere recently. With its many layers and pulsating vocals, it's no wonder why people are beginning to pay attention.
Today's Bonus track features Seams' remix of "You," which one online magazine described as such:
"It takes the glitchy Asian flair of the original and puts just enough ambient hosue behind it to make it somewhat of a dance track, though you can't really dance because you've taken so many downers you feel like your body is encased in a velvety globe of melted honey. Mmm."
Like the track? Give it a heart on HypeM!
Enjoy! (Please note, the song may take a second or two to play.)


text: So, here's the deal: I spent the vast majority of this week away from my computer but, even with that, I had a good portion of this IC title match done. This morning, though, I woke up to find it gone from my Word docs. Like, gone forever. Sooo, I'm rewriting it now but, because this week sucks balls, I have to go to my cousins' high school graduation party in a bit and probably won't be able to finish tonight. If I don't murder one of my idiotic family members and wind up in the slammer, Rob, I'll have the match to you tomorrow more than likely.

Tonga human rights under spotlight
Tonga has become the first Pacific country to be investigated for the second time by the United Nations for its human rights record.
The UN Human Rights Council has identified a number of issues of concern including police abiding by human rights standards, domestic violence, the death penalty which is still part of Tongan law and measures that have been taken to criminalise homosexual relations. The group made up of 18 HRC members and 22 observers has made a number of recommendations.
Tonga has recently been in the media spotlight after five police officers were charged with the manslaughter of a New Zealand constable when he died after being assaulted in the cells in August. Three months later another two policemen were charged with manslaughter after a 21 year old died after a fight at a party.

Some Samoan schools in and around the capital Apia will be closed until next week as bad weather closes in.
The Ministry of Education made the decision because a flood advisory is in place for the country and there has been continuing heavy rain over the past two days.
Education's CEO Matafeo Tanielu Aiafi told the Samoan Observer that it's unfortunate it's the first week of term but safety comes first.
Some of the schools haven't reopened since cyclone Evan because they have no running water and electricity and there's ongoing work to fix structural damage.
Community targets crime
The Cook Islands Police Commissioner has set up a volunteer community group to help tackle community crime.
The Cook Islands Community Safety Advisory Council is made up of business people, church leaders, traditional leaders and women's and youth groups.
Police Minister Teariki Heather told Cook Islands News the group will be specifically looking at burglaries and youth crime and whether there should be tougher penalties.
Arson attacks in French Polynesia
Police from the main island of Tahiti are being flown to Nuku Hiva in the Marquesas to help investigate a number of arson attacks.
A large double hulled canoe and four buildings have been burnt down, including a traditional house on an archaeological site.
Residents have been guarding other sites to make sure they are also not targeted.
Bomb deactivated
Military experts were called in to deactivate a 25kg WWII bomb in Bora Bora which had gone unnoticed for decades.
The French Polynesian island was an American military supply base during the war with 7000 soldiers based there.
The bomb had been partly submerged under a tree.

Just insult their intelligence. You know it is, just shake your head and say, another child who didn't get the attention they needed in school. then apologize to them.
All I did when some prick asked me that(family or not) I let them know. A "Fake" Wrestling World Champion, once dominated as UFC World Heavyweight Champion. So I ask them in return:
"SO is UFC fake? or Are what you saying is invalid? Either way, them real fighters got raped by someone fake."
Then I leave them with that.
And what else you coud've said to the prick was, "Now, why would you ask me something so obvious? you wanted my attention? you think I'm cute? Sorry, I'm taken by a vixen. And I think I hear your boyfriend calling you."
and if they want to finish what the started, run like hell. lol
interesting take, while i agree with some of what you've said i disagree with other points... my biggest contention is the Size is everything issue, i was the youngest brother of 3 boys (6 kids in all), both my brothers we're older, bigger and incredibly athletic (Olympic level). by the time i was 16 i could at 160lbs go toe to toe with a big 250lb guy and make him sit there and question his manhood why this skinny little shrimp kicked his butt, (grow up getting punched by a guy with 29" thighs you learn to take a punch). the David and goliath thing CAN work, and they do a pretty good job with mysterio MOST of the time. wrestling has evolved from a simulated sport competition to an action movie with a soap opera plot. the higher definition cameras let the viewing audience see things they weren't able to before because you're more "in the ring" with the wrestlers. Something that can help is to speed everything up just a bit. with MMA being around it's more and more apparent how slow the professional wrestling world performs, (watching Tough enough you kept hearing them say Slow it down), taking the pace up a small bit would give more of a sense of urgency, and use the story line better, slow THAT down. If you Really want to sell a feud give it some more time to build. the over the top characters CAN work but they need to STAY over the top. Tensai turning into the worlds most hyped jobber is an excellent example... put some time into your mid card ... let them win a few against their own, that way when they face a main eventer there is something to be concerned about... Just my opinion and not worth much in the scheme of things
Loved this blog. Can't agree more.

Hogan is an easy target really. I never said that others of his generation didn't also follow that uneasy pattern of falling off the radar and becoming forgotten, or just generally hated.
There are some famous people from the 70s and 80s who kept their names intact, and they are still relevant today. I would go into all those names but I would need a whole new blog that doesn't even mention wrestling to prove the point.
Some famous people have huge ego's, they want to carry on being relevant, they want to carry on taking the spots of the young, upcoming talent in any industry, not just wrestling, but there comes a time where that performer becomes so old, and that... sad ... that you begin to feel sorry for them. That is how I feel about Hogan, he can't really do anything but silly segments on TNA to keep his name out there, he can't wrestle, he can barely walk, all he can rely on is his acting skills, and they were never top notch either.
As long as big names continue to cling on, it takes time and exposure away from younger, fresher names, and overall keeps the world going in the right direction. Hogan will be known as one of those guys who could just never let go, true he may love the business, but if Hogan wasn't receiving that fat paycheck, would he carry on loving the business?
Hogan has always loved the lifestyle, the fame, the glory, and without those things, he is just a shell of his former self. Can you imagine CM Punk trying to wrestle at 60 years old, many years after his legendary feuds, many years after we thought he had retired?
We would be sad for him too.

Former NFL coach Tony Dungy has suffered severe backlash this week after saying that he would not have drafted openly gay player Michael Sam because it would have been a distraction.
Sam, who began training camp this week, had this to say about Dungy's controversial remarks: 'Thank God he wasn't St. Louis Rams' coach.
'But I have a great respect for Coach Dungy, and like everyone in America, everyone is entitled to their own opinions.'
Sam says his focus is on making his team and playing football.
'I'm excited to be back with the guys. Football is fun.'
Sam made history in May when he became the first openly gay player to be drafted by an NFL team. He appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated days after coming out publicly - several months before the draft.
Dungy, the first African-American coach to win a Super Bowl, recently told the Tampa Tribune: 'I wouldn't have taken him. Not because I don't believe Michael Sam should have a chance to play, but I wouldn't want to deal with all of it... It's not going to be totally smooth ... things will happen.'
Dungy, currently an analyst for NBC, has since released a statement attempting to clarify his remarks and to try and give them context.
'What I was asked about was my philosophy of drafting, a philosophy that was developed over the years, which was to minimize distractions for my teams.
'I do not believe Michael's sexual orientation will be a distraction to his teammates or his organization.
'I do, however, believe that the media attention that comes with it will be a distraction. Unfortunately we are all seeing this play out now, and I feel badly that my remarks played a role in the distraction.
'I wish Michael Sam nothing but the best in his quest to become a star in the NFL and I am confident he will get the opportunity to show what he can do on the field.
'My sincere hope is that we will be able to focus on his play and not on his sexual orientation.'

Carmack SMP UpdateMay 22nd, 1999 by Crusader
id programmer John Carmack made a follow-up .plan update regarding his work implementing SMP support in Quake 3: Arena. Carmack states that the only thing still broken under the SMP build is light flare support, and the SMP-related code cleanup has optimized Q3 for single-processor systems as well. He then went on to describe the benchmarks under the new build for his NT dual-CPU system:
On my development system, a dual 300 mhz intergraph realizm II, the low restimedemo scores went from 27.8 to 37.8 with "r_smp 1″. This is only a 35%average speedup, but at some times (lots of dynamic lights in complex scenes)the speedup is 90%+. Gameplay is noticably smoother.
The rendering thread is almost always the blocking factor, so the faster thecard and OpenGL driver, the larger the speedup will be.
This is explicitly a two thread producer / consumer, so there is no benefitto more than two processors. The app is well behaved, using sleepingsyncronization so that you usually still have half a processor free for otheroperating system functions.
Hopefully we will be able to test with some fast consumer cards sometimesoon.
Carmack also explains his earlier attempts to implement SMP support and the technical issues one must deal with when considering whether multi-threading will give useful optimizations for a particular project.

$5K/week is roughly $260,000 per year. Is that really cheaper than an

From The Sports Network
By Gregg Xenakes, CFL Editor
DATE & TIME: Saturday, September 22, 7:30 p.m. (et).
GAME NOTES: The top team in the CFL hits the field on Saturday night at Commonwealth Stadium, as the British Columbia Lions drop in on the Edmonton Eskimos for a West Division showdown.
Aside from a few bumps in the road early on this season, the Lions have been cruising along like the Grey Cup Champions that they are. The team picked up a second straight win and the sixth in the last seven outings last Saturday with a 28-23 triumph over Toronto at home in BC Place. The victory was the eighth of the season for BC, the most of any team after 12 weeks of action.
Quarterback Travis Lulay led the attack for the Lions as he completed 24-of-40 passes for 390 yards and two touchdowns, extending his consecutive game streak with at least one passing major to 22 in a row. With his 39-yard TD strike to Shawn Gore in the second quarter, Lulay moved into second place all-time for consecutive games with a passing score, leaving both Anthony Calvillo and Doug Flutie behind at 21 in a row. Next on the list is former Montreal signal- caller Sam Etcheverry, who delivered a major in 34 straight games from 1954-56.
Gore finished with three catches for 96 yards, while Geroy Simon tallied six grabs for 117 yards and Arland Bruce five catches for 55 yards and a score.
The effort by Simon marked just his second 100-yard game of the season and the first since he opened 2012 with five catches for 105 yards versus Winnipeg when he became the league's all-time leader in receiving yards. Simon, who has yet to take a pass into the end zone this season, now needs just 24 more receptions to reach 1,000 for his career, which means the all-time record set by Ben Cahoon is certainly a possibility.
As for the Eskimos last week, they played their own version of rotisserie quarterback as all three available signal-callers, Steven Jyles, Kerry Joseph and Matt Nichols, made an appearance in the hopeless 51-8 loss against Hamilton last Saturday afternoon.
Jyles and Joseph were both already ailing before the game even began and then Nichols entered late in the third quarter and was throttled at the end of a scramble, requiring him to come to the sideline and take a seat.
The trio combined to hit 25-of-44 for 357 yards, one interception and five painful sacks. Jerome Messam had the only major of the game for the Eskimos, thanks to a one-yard run in the first quarter, but he finished with just eight total yards on five attempts. Hugh Charles accounted for 32 yards on five carries as the team continued to have trouble identifying the most reliable ground gainer that could serve the interests of the Eskimos the best moving forward.
The Edmonton defense surrendered 571 yards and even though Hamilton was flagged for 10 penalties for 120 yards, the Tigers-Cats still couldn't be brought down.
Reports have Jyles taking the majority of the snaps in practice this week and he is the one who is expected to make the start against the Lions. Jyles, who has attempted the most passes for an Eskimo this year, is hitting on just 58 percent of his passes, leading to five touchdowns and also five interceptions. Jyles probably best represents the quarterback position for the Eskimos the best as the aerial attack overall has just 11 TDs and 11 INTs.
Against the Lions in his career, Jyles has been sacked 18 times in as many appearances and has more interceptions (five) than TDs (four).
At the other end of the spectrum is Lulay who is third in the CFL with 20 passing scores and thanks to just eight picks and 66.5 percent completions, the signal-caller has the third-best efficiency rating (101.4) at the moment as well.
A veteran of 10 matchups against the Eskimos, Lulay has come on strong most recently with a total of 11 TDs in his last four appearances.
Reaching back to the 1954 season and taking into account only regular-season matchups, Edmonton holds a 103-71-4 edge in the all-time series between the squads. The Eskimos won the most recent meeting back in July by a score of 27-14 in Vancouver, but still BC has taken three of the last four encounters overall.
The teams are set to meet once more during the regular season on Oct. 19 at BC Place.
The uncertainty at quarterback can't be good for the Eskimos right now and even though the team has pegged Jyles as the starter for this weekend, one good hit could send him to the sidelines and begin the juggling QB routine all over again. With that said, expect to see the Lions and Lulay have their way against Edmonton.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: British Columbia 37, Edmonton 13

Galway, Ireland (PRWEB) July 18, 2014
The first time on Irish soil, the RedBall takes over the infamous Spanish Arch in its Galway premier. With seven sites in seven days, the street art piece will have the run of the town, and meet a true Lucht féachana Éireannach. From the seaside to the high street, the work will pop in for a day in each location before moving on.
With Galway being the 19th city, Kurt Perschke's RedBall Project is arguably one of the longest continually running street art pieces in the world. Launched in 2001 the project has spanned the globe in its travels from Abu Dhabi to Paris, Perth to Taipei. All RedBall cities are available to view on the project's website at http://www.redballproject.com, where the full Galway performance site list is also now available. Exclusive videos from each day can be found on RedBall Project's Facebook page.
Of working in the public Perschke says, "It's no longer enough to plant monuments outdoors and assume they will enter into public discourse. To truly work in public now means to engage public imagination - for an idea to move into the public consciousness." [artist forward in Oversize: Mega Art & Installations]
Fan pictures with the hashtag #redballproject will be displayed live on http://www.redballproject.com and followers of the RedBall Project can find it on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Instagram, Pinterest and Vimeo. For more images and an aerial video from the Spanish Arch, visit http://www.redballproject.com/galway.

THE discovery of bacteria that are massively resistant to antibiotics won't make the front page these days - but when it happens in Antarctica, it is time to sit up and take notice (see "Superbugs spied off the Antarctic coast").
The superbugs aren't infecting penguins - yet - or even troubling the researchers who carried them there in their intestines and unwittingly deposited them in the sea via their sewage outfalls. But the discovery is further evidence that antibiotic resistance is no longer just a medical problem - it is an environmental one too. And that makes fighting it much harder.
We used to think the genes that enable bacteria to resist antibiotics would die out unless those antibiotics were around to give their carriers an evolutionary advantage. That should make the genes relatively easy to stamp out. As we reported last July, however, they

So I've been at this since last night. I just want to have a custom solidbrush defined in a resource dictionary and then have all of my custom controls be able to see it. so I've tried using C# code and I've tried using the generic.xaml file. No matter what way I do it, I can see the resource dictionary during the construction of the control (if I use code behind), then I can't see it during the time it's being applied (resources shows up as having 0 keys/values).
<ResourceDictionary Source="ms-appx:///Test.CustomControls.Test/Themes/Styles.xaml" />
The generic.xaml compiles fine and does not complain at not being able to find that resource. Why can't my controls see it? I have a solid brush keyed as MActiveColorBrush.
EDIT: If I put it directly into the top elements resources then it works. But I would like to have a one line piece that then embeds the resource dictionary in every control of generic.xaml. Can this not be done? If not why does it let you designate merged dictionaries at the root level of the generic.xaml?

Enter the kid from Wann, Oklahoma – a town with out so much as single stop light; Population 125, to be exact. It's not found on most maps, but now, Wann is on the map, and proudly so, being known as the home of country music artist Tyler King. Don't let the baby face fool you. Tyler King is one of the hardest working men in country music. He sings, he plays, he writes, and he shines doing all three.
In 2008 Tyler met with Oklahoma/Kansas writing/production legends Larry Brockway and Rodney Lay. While the duo saw promise in King, they had an important question, "Do you write your own songs?" To which King eagerly replied, "No, but I can try!" A few days later, a then 15-year-old King went back to the pair with "You Complete Me," the song that would become the title cut of his debut CD and draw major industry attention. This song gave insight into just how great of a songwriter King had the potential of becoming. Released in December 2009, the "You Complete Me" CD, mastered by industry veteran Richard Dodd, featured several songs by hit writers from Nashville, as well as freshly "Tylerized" versions of a couple classic songs from Tom Petty and The Traveling Wilburys.
Fast-forward to 2013 and meet a 19-year-old King, as he prepares to release his second CD project, titled aptly, "Tyler King," as the now Nashville-based artist comes into his own. This album features 10 tunes - six of which are written or co-written by King. With youth comes energy, and this project delivers. Best described as a modern country project that is mindful of it's roots, this CD stands firm as a digital imprint of the Tyler King live experience -- energy for days with a well-placed ballad in the soft spaces. Whether delivering the southern anthem, "Dixie Till I Die" or gently singing the lyrics of ballads like, "Keep Me Close," one of King's greatest strengths is being true to his personal musical and performance style. Not content to be anyone else, Tyler King excels at being himself both onstage and in the studio.
While Oklahoma and Tennessee aren't adjacent states, their country music roots intertwine quite nicely in the form of the music of Tyler King, a vocalist, guitarist, and writer, making his way into the hearts of country music fans throughout the U.S. King credits his rapid progress to having a family that always made it a point to encourage him to keep singing and dream big. He's come a long way since his toddler days of singing Tim McGraw songs into a pretend microphone for an audience of family members. Needless to say, his audience has expanded and thus far, dreaming big is working in King's favor as he continues to tour the country, having already had the honor of sitting beside country music icon Roy Clark to be interviewed by Oklahoma radio veteran, Billy Parker. King has also had the opportunity to share the stage with country music greats like, Aaron Tippin, Chris Cagle, Steve Holy, and many others.
With a rock-solid band behind him, or by himself with just an acoustic guitar, Tyler brings life to the stage and his audiences. "There's no better feeling in the world than looking out in the crowd and watching people sing along to a song I wrote," he says. "The life of an entertainer is hard work, but when people wait around after a show to get my autograph on a t-shirt or CD, it just makes it all worth it."

Live Concert Video Shoot
Hey guys, TK here!
Thanks for checking out my new website! For several weeks, my team and I have been planning a blowout live event in Caney, KS at one of the biggest dance halls in the region. You guessed it -- Short Creek! Just down the road from my hometown of Wann, America, I'm beyond excited to load up the bus and come home from Nashville! This live video shoot has been something I've wanted to do for a long time, and finally all the stars just sort of aligned, and it's happening, and I wouldn't want to do it any other place. I've got the best fans back home that I'm proud to call friends and family, and I'm stoked for you all to come out and be a part of this concert and video!
My band and I will hit the road Thursday night, making our first stop in Tulsa, OK to play a show Friday night, March 21st, at the world-famous Hall of Fame Bar. I've played this bar many times throughout the years, but I know this is going to be the biggest and best show I've ever put on at "The Hall." From there, we'll head North to Caney on Saturday night, March 22nd. A video crew from Wichita, KS will be on hand filming the entire night! Opening the show will be my good friends, The Jody Schmidt Band. We're providing two bands, a video production crew, a light production crew, a great dance hall, ice-cold beer, and the promise of a good time! All you need to bring is yourself and all your friends!

Symptoms: Signs and Symptoms of Prostate Cancer
There are usually no specific signs or symptoms of early prostate cancer. A prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test and digital rectal exam (DRE) can provide the best chance of identifying prostate cancer in its earliest stages, but these tests can have drawbacks.

Surf's Up on Kuta Beach, Bali
Kuta was our first taste of life in Bali, Indonesia. I had always thought of Bali as some overpriced small resort island of the same ilk as Figi. While you can find plenty of $1,000/night resorts and the requisite Hard Rock that comes with an overdeveloped tourist spot, Bali can actually be pretty cheap if you look in the right places, freeing up your funds for surfing, food, and nightlife (the essentials in Kuta).
This was the first beach area we'd visited since leaving the secluded paradise of Port Barton and it was like walking into the twilight zone compared to those peaceful sands. At first glance Kuta is overrun with drunk Aussies and the vibe was much more like the fratty Phangnan than I'd imagined; complete with sidewalk shops touting psychedelic mushrooms for sale and raunchy souvenirs overflowing store fronts onto the sidewalks. Wood carved dicks were everywhere and we were curious who this Rhonda chick was whose name graced the front of so many t-shirts. Not sure who she is, but if everyone's fucked her as the t-shirts say, she must be the biggest slut around (turns out she's from some Aussie commercial).
Okay, maybe the first impression of the main strip is unfair to judge Kuta by, so we headed to the beach. The walk off the main strip was better, lined more with surf shops and little restaurants than raunchy souvenirs. The beach though, was jam packed with people and the water was elbow to elbow with surfers. I haven't hit the waves for a while, and was not looking forward to getting my feet back under me in such a deep line up. Thinking this wasn't anywhere near what we expected we went to dinner where things started to turn around. Funny how an inexpensive seafood feast can do that.
What really turned our impression of Kuta around was hitting the beach the next morning. I found a friendly local dude named Agi renting boards on the beach and hit the much less crowded waves. It took a few goes but these waves were much easier than what I was used to in California and I was popping up in no time with an ear to ear smile on my face. It was great to have an easy paddle out and be able to surf for the first time in water warm enough to not need a wetsuit. I was so focused on the waves I didn't realize until it was too late that the board was rubbing my nipples raw. Toweling off that night was not fun!
The next day we were back out and after being fired by Alex as surf instructor after an unsuccessful lesson yesterday, we recruited surf guru Agi to give her a private lesson. Before we left on this trip, we thought learning to dive in Koh Tao and surf camp in Bali were going to be our two big Asia expenses. Luckily we didn't pull the trigger on the camp. Seeing the piles of campers in the water with only a few instructors between them, made Alex's private lesson look so much better. Instead of dishing out $700 each for the week, we got a 2 hour, $20 lesson and Alex got some personalized attention. The huge smile across his face and sound effects he used in describing things made Agi a favorite of ours. I think his washboard abs probably helped hold Alex's attention too (seriously Agi, put on a shirt already).
After full days of surfing the food was plentiful to help recharge your batteries, and the cheap massages helped rejuvenate your body and ease the soreness. There was also tons of nightlife around to aid in the story telling of that massive wave we shredded, brah. We quickly got past the grimy surface level of Kuta and loved it so much we decided to come back for a few more days to sharpen our surfing skills at the end of our stay in Indonesia.
Unfortunately for us novices, when we returned to Kuta after a few weeks, the swells were friggen huge. I'm talking like 10-12 feet, which is about double what I'd be comfortable with. Not one to be deterred by a little thing like an inadequate skill level I did try to go out. That ended horribly, with me getting caught in a current without realizing it and looking up to see myself a good 20 yards farther out than the line up. It took all my energy and every kind of different paddle stroke I could think of to get back to shore.
Instead of the last few days being an opportunity to hit the waves, they turned into a great chance to rest and relax. We "splurged" on a $30/night room, which was easily the swankiest place we've been on this trip. We hung in the comfortable confines of the room more than usual, relaxing in the A/C and the comfy bed and using the best Internet we've had in a while to load up our computer with things to watch over the rest of the trip. Even the rain couldn't keep us down with such a comfortable oasis at hand and plentiful entertainment on our street. We left Bali completely ready for all the exploring we'd be doing over the next few weeks in Cambodia.

Women account for the majority of Meeting Planners in the United States. The entire group has an average salary of $49K per year. Overall cash earnings for Meeting Planners vary widely between $36K and $70K; for a few high rollers, the final number can encompass upwards of $6K each from bonuses and profit sharing proceeds. Geographic location and career length each impact pay for this group, with the former having the largest influence. Most Meeting Planners report high levels of job satisfaction. A large number enjoy medical while a majority get dental coverage. Vision coverage is also available to a little more than half. Figures cited in this summary are based on replies to PayScale's salary questionnaire.

Meeting planners are responsible for planning and coordinating meetings and conferences. This includes performing planning and logistics tasks prior to meetings, as well as performing management and troubleshooting for meetings themselves. Duties for meeting planners generally include developing timelines and budgets, publishing brochures and other meeting materials, negotiating lodging and travel, renting event spaces, and managing speaking schedules. Being detail-oriented is essential, as meeting planners are responsible for planning multiple events at one time.Read More...
Once at the meeting or conference, meeting planners often oversee a significant staff (which may include volunteers), and they must maintain firm control over on-site personnel to ensure everything goes smoothly. Meeting planners must have excellent interpersonal communication skills and able to quickly identify and correct problems so the meeting or conference is not adversely affected. Significant travel is often necessary for meeting planning positions, as many conferences are held off-site from the planner's location.
General job requirements for a meeting planner include a bachelor's degree, prior experience in the hospitality industry, and excellent planning and communication skills. Being a certified meeting professional may be preferred, and basic computer skills are needed. Proofreading and writing skills are also helpful because meeting planners are often required to edit and produce brochures and other written materials. The ability to work flexible hours may be needed, as meetings and conferences are sometimes held on nights and weekends.

Though not the most common occurrence, Meeting Planners sometimes become Senior Meeting Planners, where the average income is $65K per year. More often than not, a Meeting & Convention Planner role is the next step for Meeting Planners moving up in the field. Pay for Meeting & Convention Planners is usually $45K. Many Meeting Planners choose to take on a Meeting Manager role instead, where salaries are typically $52K.
Meeting Planners report a narrow range of specific skills. Those who have experience with Budget Management, Contract Negotiation, and Event Planning can expect to be compensated well for these skills. Those educated in Budget Management tend to be well versed in Contract Negotiation.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience does not seem to be a strong driver of pay increase in this role. Respondents with less than five years' experience take home $45K on average. In contrast, those who have been around for five to 10 years earn a noticeably higher average of $51K. People with 10 to 20 years of experience make an average of about $54K in this role. Veterans who have acquired more than 20 years report a median income of $57K, which is generally higher than the pay reported by other tenure groups.
For Meeting Planners, working in the bustling city of Los Angeles has its advantages, including an above-average pay rate. Meeting Planners will also find cushy salaries in San Francisco (+25 percent), Philadelphia (+18 percent), Alexandria (+13 percent), and New York (+9 percent). Cincinnati is the lowest-paying area, 15 percent south of the national average. Two other places where employers offer below-median salaries are Denver (15 percent less) and Atlanta (13 percent less).

Uruguay Sets Price of Legalized Cannabis at $1 a Gram
Uruguay is set to become the first country in the world where the sale of cannabis will not only become legal and government-controlled, but at around $1 a gram probably also the one with the most affordable marijuana anywhere.
A senate vote to legalise the drug that is expected in mid-November as part of an effort in the South American country to explore alternatives in the war on drugs.
The head of Uruguay's National Drugs Board, Julio Calzada, said the government would set the price of cannabis low in the hope of pushing drug traffickers out of the market.
"The illegal market is very risky and of poor quality," he said. "The price of marijuana from Paraguay that gets sold on the streets here is about $1 a gram, so we're going to set the price of government-controlled cannabis at around that same price. We want to snatch the market away from the drug traffickers."
It will take a few months after that to organise a system through which cannabis will be sold freely at pharmacies.
"The system will be in place around mid-2014," Calzada told the Uruguayan newspaper El País. "So there'll be time to harvest and start selling."
Smoking cannabis has long been legal in Uruguay, but growing, carrying, buying or selling it has been punishable by prison terms. About 120,000 of the country's 3.4 million population consume cannabis at least once a year, according to the National Drug Council. Of these, 75,000 smoke it every week and 20,000 every day.
"In reality, cannabis only costs about half a dollar a gram to produce in Uruguay," said Juan Vaz,46, a computer programmer and veteran legalisation campaigner from the capital city, Montevideo. "So when the government says that by next year we could be buying it at $1 a gram, that sounds very reasonable."
The proposed price it is considerably lower than that of legal cannabis in the US states of Washington and Colorado where the drug has already been legalised. In those American states marijuana sells for between $8 and $17 a gram.

Forests.org, a project of EcoInternet
October 26, 2008
In partnership with Salva la Selva
In Paraguay, genetically modified (GM) soya plantations, planted in vast toxic monocultures, are the main cause of deforestation, destruction and pollution of other ecosystems, and violence and eviction of small farmers and indigenous peoples. Paraguay has nearly 2.6 million hectares of soy plantations for animal feed exports and, more recently, for agrofuel. Local peoples are resisting ecocide bravely, and against long odds, and need our support.
The remnants of Paraguay's Atlantic Forest and of the Alto Parana forest, as well as wetlands, grasslands and rivers are being destroyed and polluted by the expansion of immense soya fields. Deforestation is worsening global warming and also causing severe regional warming and droughts. It has contributed to the worst fire season ever recorded in Paraguay last year, and to the severe drought currently affecting the south of the country.
A journalist who visited the country in 2007 described the impact of soya monocultures: "Rural eastern Paraguay used to be full of jungle, small farms, schools and wildlife. Now it is a green sea of soybeans. The families, trees and birds are gone. The schools are empty. The air is filled with the toxic stench of the pesticides... used to protect the soy crops."
More than 100,000 small peasant families have been evicted for soya plantations and over 100 peasant leaders have been murdered since the late 1990s in conflicts over access to land. Agro-chemical spraying (paraquat, glyphosate, 2,4D, and others) of soya plantations severely affects the health of people living in soy regions, leading even to deaths, and also destroys people's food crops. Hunger and malnutrition are increasing in Paraguay as less land is available to farmers for growing food.
In August this year, a new government took office and the new president, Fernando Lugo, promised to support small farmers against pesticide poisoning and soya expansion. However, the government has given conflicting signals by also supporting increased soya exports. The police and juridical forces have been supporting the soya industry by suppressing the peasant movement in their fight against pesticide spraying and the expansion of soy monocultures.
This month, at the start of the new soya planting season, small farmers' organisations have mobilised to stop pesticide spraying and to protect peasant agriculture and the environment against further destruction. They have set up around 130 lawful protest camps at the margins of soya "latifundios" (large estates). In recent weeks, they have been increasingly subjected to violence, with two murders of peasant leaders, threats to others, unlawful arrests and detentions. Paramilitaries including the "Comisiones Garrote" are increasingly violently evicting protestors.
It seems likely that violence and repression against the peasant movement will intensify. Many in the local movement consider this year to be their last chance to stop soya expansion and to protect what remains of Paraguay's forests and wetlands, sustainable peasant agriculture, and small farmers and indigenous people's future. Please write to the authorities in Paraguay and urge them to fully support small farmers and their demands for protection from pesticide spraying, unlawful evictions, environmental destruction and pollution; while supporting their demands for food sovereignty and land reform.

Please protect Paraguay's communities and environment from soya monocultures
Your Message:
Dear President Lugo,
I am writing to request you please protect Paraguay's communities and environment against soya monocultures. It pleased me to hear of your election commitments to protect small farmers against soya plantations, including against pesticide spraying and to stop deforestation. However now, once elected, I understand you continue to support expanded soya export. I am deeply concerned to hear about the increasing violence against peasant organisations that are mobilising against pesticide spraying in the soya monocultures, while promoting a new agricultural policy that protects small farmers and food sovereignty as well as the environment.
Two peasant leaders -- Sindulfo Martínez, of the organisation MCP, and Bienvenido Melgarejo, of the organisation ASAGRAPA -- have recently been murdered. There are reports of a 'hit list' with the names of fifty peasant leaders who fear that they could be murdered next. In past weeks, the courts and the police have been involved in the eviction of peasant camps which have been lawfully set up on the margins of, not on, soya plantations, resorting to laws which exist to prevent criminal offences when none have occurred. People have been unlawfully evicted, detained, criminalised and tortured.
With this letter, I want to show my strong support to the main demands of peasant movements and civil society organisations in Paraguay: that pesticide spraying of soy monocultures must be banned and effectively stopped. And the lands illegaly sold to agribusiness companies must be returned to the landless Paraguayan peasants.
I urge you to stop the eviction orders and repression against peasant mobilisation. The two recent murders and all reports of police violence and torture must be fully investigated and those responsible must be held to account. The families of those who have been murdered must receive financial compensation.
The government must take immediate action and investigate the death threats against peasant leaders. The first step for this is to dissolve the so called "Citizen Security Commissions", commonly called "Garrote Commissions". These groups are the main actors of the para-police violence against social organisations in the rural areas.
To address the urgent crisis situation of poverty and environmental devastation in Paraguay, your government must initiate a programme to support peasant farming and food sovereignty, rather than further sacrificing Paraguay's communities and environment to produce animal feed and agrofuels for export. It is unwise to seek to grow soya exports when your citizens are paying such a high price for their toxic and dangerous production.
Please let me know what your plans are for addressing this urgent situation, in order to avoid more violence and human rights violations, including more killings of peasants, and to protect communities and the environment from soya monocultures. Paraguay's reputation and future ecological sustainability depends upon doing the right thing and ending soya's negative impacts upon its environment and people. The world is watching.
Yours faithfully,
