Arizona Cardinals
Double Coverage: Arizona Cardinals vs. Seattle Seahawks
What better way is there to get a feel for the Cardinals' next opponent than by chatting with someone who knows the team? Brady Henderson of MyNorthWest.com and 710AM Seattle was nice enough to take some time out of his day to talk about the Seahawks. Click here to see my side of the conversation.
Green: Brady, thanks for taking the time to chat in the midst of what is a very busy (and perhaps a little crazy?) Mariners offseason. I guess with no NBA or NHL teams you may have some time to kill? OK, sorry. I joke because I know the Cardinals have quite a challenge ahead of them this Sunday. The last time these teams played in Seattle, the score was 58-0 Seahawks and it wasn't even that close. Do you think that game will have any impact on what happens this time around?
Henderson: Well played, Adam. That was cold-blooded, like a Darnell Dockett elbow to the throat. I don't think that game will have much bearing on this one. It was a long time ago, and the Seahawks know this isn't the same Cardinals team they played last December -- not even the same one they played back in Week 7. "There's no chance" of the Seahawks overlooking Arizona, coach Pete Carroll said this morning. And while that's something you'd expect a coach to say, it doesn't sound hollow when you hear players talking about treating each week like the Super Bowl. The Seahawks have been the frontrunners for most of this season, and I don't think there's been a game in which you could say they took the opposing team lightly.
Green: In Week 1 of the 2012 season, the Cardinals beat Russell Wilson in his first game as a starter. He's obviously improved quite a bit since then, and seems to have gone from serviceable/good to elite this season. With a seeming lack of premier pass catching options, what's the difference in his game?
Henderson Careful what you say about Seattle's wide receivers or Doug Baldwin will unleash a profanity-laced tirade on you. He did it recently in response to a national writer's column about Seattle's receiver corps potentially being the team's downfall, and I think Baldwin had a point given how well that group (along with the tight ends) has played this season even though some of the stats don't jump out. Wilson makes those guys better, no doubt. He's certainly come a long way since that 2012 opener, when a case could be made that he was hamstrung by a conservative game-plan. He improved throughout that season as the reins were loosened, then he became really dangerous -- and at times unstoppable -- when the Seahawks began incorporating the read-option in their offense. Make no mistake: he's a phenomenal pocket passer -- especially off of play-action -- but this season the Seahawks have been intent on taking advantage of his scrambling ability when the opportunities arise. He has a 105 passer rating and has shown Houdini-esque escapability, so you can imagine how difficult he can be to defend.
Green: The difference in the Cardinals since they last played the Seahawks is clearly an offense that has become more efficient and less turnover prone. Carson Palmer looks reborn and Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Floyd and Rob Housler have benefited. However, the Seahawks boast what is arguably the game's best defense. How do you see that playing out?
Henderson: Three weeks ago, the news that Brandon Browner and Walter Thurmond were each facing suspensions seemed like a potential disaster for a defense that was about to lose its second and third cornerback right before hosting the Saints and their second-ranked passing offense. It wasn't exactly a soft landing for young backups Byron Maxwell and Jeremy Lane, but the Seahawks had their way with New Orleans, holding Drew Brees to his fewest yards passing since the final week of the 2010 regular season. Maxwell has three interceptions over the last two games while playing opposite Richard Sherman on the outside, and Lane has continued to play well in Seattle's nickel packages. With all due respect to Palmer, Fitzgerald and co., Seattle's defense has faced tougher challenges over the last month and passed with ease.
Green: Alright then, how about a prediction.
Henderson I don't see this game at all resembling the blowout from last December, especially with Seattle struggling to run the ball of late and the Cardinals being so stout against the run. All that pressure Arizona is sure to bring is another potential concern for the Seahawks given their issues in pass protection. But the one matchup that sticks out most is Seattle's pass rush against Arizona's offensive line. The Seahawks sacked Palmer seven times back in Week 7, and now he's dealing with an ankle injury that figures to affect his already-limited mobility. Seattle's pass rush always has an edge at CenturyLink Field, where it's not going to be any quieter this week with the NFC's No. 1 seed on line. Seahawks 24, Cardinals 14.

Jennifer Hudson - Jennifer Hudson - CD Review
By: Matthew Milam Blogcritics.org Reviews
Published on: 12/16/2008 4:06 AM
|Jennifer Hudson's self-titled debut album isn't a masterpiece. Given that the album had gone through several setbacks and delays prior to its release, it's obvious that there was no one at the helm who knew what to do with the former American Idol contestant and Oscar winner. That being said, and in light of her recent family tragedy, the album does showcase the things she's good at as well as the things she needs to fix in her future musical endeavors....read the full review

Sherk is trolling Ricardo Arona HAAARD here lol.
Sherk is trolling Ricardo Arona HAAARD here lol.
So when's his comeback?
Sherk will always be one of my all time favorites. But its time to just get back in the Octagon. He needs to stop looking for the right fight because anyone that is anyone is ranked ahead of him right now. I personally would love to see him fight Lauzon or Diaz.
Also it is too bad Serra retired because thats a fight I always wanted to see.
Dude, Im a wrestler. Im the best wrestler in MMA. Wrestling IS, was and always has been the most dominate form of mix martial art on the planet. Thats all there is to it. We all know it, some people want to fight it, some people want doubt it but wresters rule the MMA world. -

Chaewon Park In Third Place at Big West Conference Championship
April 22, 2013
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. - Sophomore Chaewon Park shot a 3-over par 76 in Monday's second round of the Big West Conference Women's Golf Championship to finish in third place and help keep Long Beach State in second at the San Luis Obispo Country Club.
Battling windy conditions all day, LBSU posted a 312 for a 36-hole score of 25-over 609. UC Davis (+9) recorded the day's lowest score of 304 to increase its lead to 16 shots over the 49ers. LBSU holds a nine stroke lead over third place UC Irvine (+34).
Cal State Fullerton (+48) is fourth with a one-shot lead over tournament host Cal Poly (+49) in fifth, followed by UC Riverside (+52), Hawai'i (+54) and Cal State Northridge (+58).
Despite shooting a second round 76, Park remains just one-shot behind Andrea Wong of UC Davis in second and four strokes behind the Aggies' Demi Runas in first. Park accumulated a 36-hole score of 3-over 149. The Torrance native did not record a single birdie for the round as she collected three bogeys and 15 pars.
Freshmen Kassidy Teare and Shawnee Martinez are tied for 10th at 8-over 154. Teare posted an 82 after starting the day tied for second with an opening round 72. Martinez carded a 79 after being tied for sixth with a 79.

Very good! I have been diagnosed with gestational diabetes for a week and was looking for ANYTHING sweet. This was really nice and easy to make!
My husband loved this when I made it for him. I didn't buy the pastry flour, so I just used regular whole wheat flour and did minimal mixing.
This is a low-fat cake and I like it. It doesn't take much time to make. As I am a diabetic I lowered the amount of sugar. Also you should lower the oven to 150 degrees.

Lagos — His Royal Highness, Igwe Laz Ekwueme remains the doyen of choral music in Nigeria. A foremost professor of music, and an icon of the arts, the retired professor of music of the University of Lagos, is as well, the present monarch in his Oko community in Anambra State.
Following his coronation as Igwe Ekwueme, the fourth of Oko Kingdom, Anambra State, about six months ago, Laz has become the symbolic icing on the cake to many lovers of art in Nigeria. As a traditional ruler, and professor emeritus, Laz Ekwueme's passion for the art has remained undying even as the demands of his new office have not restricted him from getting involved in the arts.
A consummate master of ceremonies, an actor par excellence, composer and an impresario of the art, Igwe Laz Ekwueme means different things to different people. Shortly after his coronation and as a show of his undying interest in the art, the new monarch surprisingly won the prize for the lyrics of an anthem for the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). At 72, though retired, the music scholar is not tired as his contributions to the advancement of the arts have continued to soar higher and higher. At every art fora, the Igwe's presence is rarely ignored.
Also in the movie industry, Igwe Laz Ekwueme holds forte his own. Having featured in many films, the retired professor does not restrict himself to the roles of moneybags or the affluent, but also plays the roles of the poor and the down-trodden. By that, he also feels the pulse of the suffering masses.
He retired from the University of Lagos after almost four decades in the academia, where he helped train and nurture artistes. He is also the author of 13 books on different branches of the arts including music and theatre as well as monographs, numerous scholarly works and journal articles. He also contributed chapters in several other books; and belongs to many scholarly societies.
As a man of the throne and the art, the indefatigable septuagenarian who founded the famous Laz Ekwueme Chorale on the occasion of the public presentation of Nd'Igbo Journal, which recently took place at the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs (NIIA) Lagos, revealed to ArtSalon that, as a traditional ruler, his new office does not in any way stand between him and his love for the arts. Hear him.
"I I am still playing my part in the arts. And I am still conducting my choir and giving my lectures
in music and the art whenever I am called upon. I am still making myself available in the movie industry. Yes, the throne poses another challenge anyway. But I don't have to confine myself to the throne alone. As it is noted in the Holy Book, there is time for everything. Time to look for something to eat, and time to sit on the throne. Because I am not paid for being on the throne, I therefore, need to get myself engaged so as to make ends meet. Unlike monarchs from the other parts of the country who are very well supported by their various governments, we are not well remunerated as traditional rulers. It's not so with us in the East. If I abandon the art, where will I get my daily bread?"
Experience on the throne
The throne is highly demanding. It also has its own challenges. But thank God, that I have been able to make my own little contribution in the area of trying to raise the standard of equity and justice among my subjects.
We thank God for all his mercies. I am Ekwueme the fourth. The ancestry has been there for ages, so, it is not totally new and uncommon. Yes, for me, it's new. But six months is not just yesterday. The government has not been supportive to us.
In Anambra State, the traditional rulers are not very well remunerated. There is need for government to improve on the welfare of the traditional rulers so as to encourage them to discharge their duties to their subjects effectively.
My choir is still there. Right now, we are trying to put together a peace solidarity concert for the Niger-Delta, which choristers from Warri, Port-Harcourt, Akwa-Ibom State, and of course, my choir will participate in. I have made my contributions as far as the art and classical music is concerned in Nigeria. I believe in change.
What I cannot accomplish now, I try to pave way for the younger ones to take their turns and do the rest of it. But as long as I live, I will continue to do my best in the area of promoting the classical music in Nigeria.
I taught English and I still teach speech and drama. I have a Ph.D in Music. I practised every genre of the arts. All the arts are inter-related, especially in Africa. Music, drama and speech, and all literatures are inter-woven.
You really can't practice any one of them well without knowing quite a bit about the others. God is great. We give to each role what it requires. When it is time to play the Igwe in real life, we do that and when it is time to play the Igwe in the movie, we play Igwe in the movie. When it is time to conduct my choir, I do that.
I have featured in many films since I joined the movie industry fully. Some of the outstanding ones include: Never Say Never, Love Story, Worlds Apart, Paradise, Saviour, Dance In The Forest, among others. There are the traditional period and set, or epic movies like, The Golden Axe, Secret Adventure, Blood of the Orphan, and Formidable Force. I've just acted in Treasure Hunt and Lords Of The Game.
Relaxation, yes! While discharging my duties, I try to find time to relax. I have nothing to worry about. And, God being my helper, I take things the way they come to me, and it is my desire to stand by the truth at all times. I have no regrets for mounting the throne of my forefathers. I am still writing, composing and involving myself in other aspects of the arts. But the throne is a little more challenging and tasking so to say.
Igbo renaissance
I believe in Igbo renaissance. But I also strongly believe that we cannot do away with the memories of the civil war, because what led to the civil war has not been addressed till today. The Igbos are still being marginalised, discriminated against, and also, treated like second class citizens. Of course, I agree that the civil war shattered the psyche of the Igboman. Before now, we used to talk of Igbo solidarity, but today, the reverse is the case. Money seems to be the sole determinant of what an average Igboman does, which is not supposed to be so.

Actress Hong Soo-hyeon has been chosen to be the wife of actor Ryoo Si-won.
She has been cast for the role of Kang Seon-ah in the Channel A drama "Goodbye Dear Wife" which will be aired on the 7th of May.
"Goodbye Dear Wife" is a romantic comedy about the relationship rights between married couples who need romance. The key role would be that of Cha Seung-hyeok (Ryoo Si-won) who dreams of 'romance again' with his first love and boldly says goodbye to his wife, and Kang Seon-ah who has the reins to her husband but is tired of trying to restrain him.
The productions said, "There has been many interested in Japan about the leading female role. Enquiries have been oncoming in phone calls and SNS, enough to delay work at the offices. The return of Hallyu Prince to screens for the first time in 4 years proved our reputation in Japan".
Hong Soo-hyeon was focused on as the unfortunate Princess Kyeong-hye in the KBS drama "The Princess' Man" and as intelligent and proud Cha Woo-hee in the SBS drama "Salaryman".
Berdi Media claimed, "Kang Seon-ah is a wise wife who knows how to restrain her husband and sometimes to let go and is a lovely character who is very bright and cheerful. Her intelligent and bold character fit just right with Kang Seon-ah like decalcomania".

Billy Horschel
MARK STEVENS: Billy Horschel, got it to 9‑under today. Two shots off the lead heading into the third round tomorrow. Kind of talk about your round today, what went well, and what you're thinking about going into tomorrow's round?
BILLY HORSCHEL: Yeah, I mean, I had a good day. Obviously, playing the South Course, it's obviously tougher than the North Course. I started out striking the ball well. It's never going to be bad with me. I've always been a good ball striker.
We've just been working on tempo. I felt good on the range, and hit a couple good shots early. Unfortunately, I three‑putted number 11, my second hole the par‑3 from about 12 feet and just a brain fart. But came back with a good birdie at number 12, and I just played solid the rest of the way for the next seven holes or so.
I had a couple of putts just slip out. And then I had another three‑putt at number 2. I had a 12‑footer for birdie, and hit it a couple feet by the hole and just missed a two‑footer, another brain fart.
But, overall, it was a good day the way I finished. Finishing, I think, three birdies in the last four or five holes was good. I played in some bad conditions. Once I made a turn on hole two, three, and four, sort of the rain came down a little bit harder.
But it's a good day, and I'm excited about tomorrow. I get to play with Tiger. I found out when I tapped in for par number 9, I realized he was leading and I was in second place, so, yeah, looking forward to that.
Q. Have you ever been paired with Tiger?
BILLY HORSCHEL: I've never been paired with Tiger.
Q. Can you expand a little bit about what you might expect tomorrow or what you're thinking about?
BILLY HORSCHEL: I know there are going to be crowds. It's nothing that I haven't dealt with before. I've played the Walker Cup in 2007 over in Northern Ireland at Royal County Down and there was a guy I competed against three times called Rory McIlroy. So there may have been 10, 12,000 people following us, and only a couple thousand following the rest of the group. So I've dealt with crowds.
I guess, it's a little bit easier playing with Tiger because I guess the group ahead, they move a lot or something. Just hearing what media says.
It's going to be exciting. I've never been paired with Tiger. He's one of the golfers of the many I've looked up to when I was a young kid, so I get to play with him. It's going to be nice. I've met him a couple of times.
He was gracious enough to give me a spot right out of college at his tournament, AT&T National in 2009. Met him then, introduced myself, and I've met him a couple‑‑ we've talked a couple other times. But, yeah, it's going to be a good day no matter what.
Q. When you got the spot in AT&T National, what was the communication? Did they kind of pick you out? Did you ask them to play? How did that work out?
BILLY HORSCHEL: I mean, just like any kid coming out of college or any other professional golfer, you write for sponsor exemptions. Luckily enough, I had a pretty good college career in 2009, and Tiger and Greg McLaughlin, the tournament director, were, like I said, gracious enough to give me one.
It could have gone any other way, but to give me one out of college, and I think it was based on what I've done in college and amateur golf. I felt like I deserved a spot, and I think they did too and that's why I was rewarded with one.
Q. Were you guys able to have many conversations or was it more just shaking his hands and meeting him?
BILLY HORSCHEL: Yeah, I met him on Wednesday before the tournament wrapped. He got done playing the Pro‑Am. I told my manager at the time I said I wanted to see Tiger and thank Tiger for the spot. We went up and he said a couple of words.
What I thought was pretty cool was there was no one that he was talking to before, but he said I know you've had a pretty good college career and you've done pretty well. Just keep doing what you're doing. You'll be fine, and you'll be out here in no time. So I thought that was something cool at the time.
Obviously, he meets tons of players and for him to sort of mention my college career and a couple things I've done was, I thought, pretty remarkable.
Q. You've started now with 10‑rounds of 70 or better for the season. Can you talk about any off‑season adjustments that you might have made to help you get off to a good start this year?
BILLY HORSCHEL: I didn't have an off‑season. Unfortunately, last year I played conditional. Played 17 events out here and five or six out on the Web.com. Played pretty well out here. Made 15 cuts, just didn't take care of business on Sunday, so I had to go back to Q‑school.
Then after Q‑school, I had a come other prior arrangements to do a couple golf things. After that, I took a week off and went snowboarding in Snowmass. It's my second year doing it, and I love it. I'm sort of addicted. I could have spent another month and a half out there.
But there wasn't much practice for me. I didn't really start practicing, didn't really touch a club until a couple days before New Year's. So it was two and a half weeks off.
My game had been pretty good going towards the end of the year, so I needed some time off. So it was sort of a couple finer points I wanted to work on was more or less my putting. Me and my teacher, Todd Anderson, looked at my stats and realized‑‑ I mean, we knew all along my putting was somewhere where I could improve greatly. And there were just a couple of fundamentals and mechanical things that we worked on, and it's been something I've been really focusing on, spending more time on the putting green than on the driving range. I spent four hours on the putting green on Wednesday, just trying to put the time in and feeling comfortable with what we're working on. Just get that added confidence that I can get on the putting green.
Q. Is it three for three in Q‑school finals for you? What is it?
BILLY HORSCHEL: No, no, it's three for four. I missed in 2011, and I knew I wasn't going to get my card when I went there. I stepped on‑‑ in 2011, it was out at PGA West again. Didn't feel good with my game. It's never bad, but I just didn't feel great with it.
I knew the whole week, sort of in the back of my head, I just didn't really feel great with it, and I didn't get my cart card, but, yeah, three for four is a good percentage, but I don't want to do that anymore.
Q. I was going to ask you about that. That's a tough way to keep getting out here. What is the upside of that, Billy, as far as what you've learned from it and what you get out of it? Just having to kind of keep moving on, keep pushing on?
BILLY HORSCHEL: Yeah, I think the first two times I got through, I didn't learn anything from Q‑school. I can't say I didn't learn anything in '09, my first year out of college and going to Q‑school, because I got hurt at the beginning of 2010. So it sort of hurt me a little bit and learning from that process. But this year I sort of made an added effort to pay attention to a couple of things I did different.
One thing that I learned is that I like to know a lot of things, and once I get addicted to something, I like to read a lot of articles. I like to read a lot of anything. I like information, knowledge, and paying attention to the leaderboards, which I've never done in Q‑school. Going back to 2009 and any stage I played, I never looked at a leaderboard at all, so I never knew where I stood. And I'm carrying that out to here, trying not to look at leaderboards.
Obviously, it's a little harder out here because they're every three holes. And I'm not reading anymore Golf Week articles. I'm not reading anymore Golf World articles. I'm on Twitter still, but I'm not paying attention to certain things that, you know, little headlines that I could sort of get enticed into reading.
I don't do it all during the week. It's tough, because I like to hear what other guys are doing or anything like that, and it's just I've learned it's not beneficial to me.
Q. Why is that? When you say reading about stuff, reading about other people or reading about yourself?
BILLY HORSCHEL: Reading about other people, reading about myself. I just sort of put maybe a little bit more pressure on myself. Nothing good, I've learned, comes from it, for me, at least. Some guys can read the articles and sort of let it go. With me, it stays with me. I think about it.
What it actually does is it takes away from me being‑‑ me just looking out for myself. I like to‑‑ it sounds bad, but I'm not as selfish as I should be sometimes. I think doing‑‑ not that reading articles is going to make me selfish or not selfish. But it just takes away from focusing on what I need to do. I need to be a little bit more selfish out here. Not always talk a lot to everybody I see. I can talk your ear off for days and days.
So whenever I see somebody, not going over there and talking 20 minutes while they're practicing and I'm not. So it's more or less just me focusing on what I need to do and taking care of my business and just go about it that way.
Q. Have you checked your cell phone since you finished? Have you gotten any texts from buddies yet saying you're playing with Tiger? And are you going to turn your cell phone off tonight so can you get some sleep?
BILLY HORSCHEL: I've got some texts already. I haven't read them all, but I have seen what a couple of people have texted me. My phone's going off right now on my side right now in my pants with people texting me. But I'm not going to turn it off.
I appreciate all the support that all of my friends and family give me. So I think hopefully they'll respect that I'm going to be sleeping here in a couple of hours so they won't be calling me or texting me. But, yeah, I'm not going to worry about it too much.
Q. That first tee at '07 in the Walker Cup, remind me, was it you calming Rickie down or Rickie calming you down?
BILLY HORSCHEL: I think it was a little bit of both.
Q. Who hit the first tee shot?
BILLY HORSCHEL: I did. Buddy Marucci realized that ‑‑ he had played enough golf with me in amateur events leading up ‑‑ he couldn't wait a couple groups for me to go out. He had to send me out right away, because I'm just antsy, fired up, and I've got to go when I've got to go.
So he sent me out. I hit the first tee shot, and I was pretty calm. Rickie needed to be calmed down. A couple holes later, he was sort of a little‑‑ he was up, high on emotions and everything. He was sort of wasn't hitting the shots he wanted, and we just sort of calmed each other down. It was sort of a little yin‑yang thing for us. If one of us got a little too high, the other one sort of brought us back to reality, in both ways.
Q. Does it help being on the west coast with tee times at 11:00, instead of like 2 or 3:00 in Florida later in the summer?
BILLY HORSCHEL: It helps a lot. Obviously I've been in a couple of final groups, and McGladrey was one of them in 2011. And waiting until 1:30, 2:00, I didn't know what to do with myself because I don't sleep in very late. So it's nice to be out here at 10:30, 11:00.
I've learned with later tee times, I've found a couple things I need to do before I tee off to keep my mind away from wandering and anything else that can affect me before I tee off.

Sparc-on-Intel translator due in weeks

LinuxWorld revs upAugust 17, 2006
IBM deal to expand Linux software for PowerAugust 15, 2006
Partnership set to run RISC software on Intel chipsMarch 6, 2006
The brains behind Apple's Rosetta: TransitiveJune 8, 2005
Transitive demonstrated the software this week at the LinuxWorld Conference and Expo here. Intel, which for years has vied to lure UltraSparc customers to its own chips, announced a partnership in March to help Transitive with the work.
The Los Gatos, Calif.-based start-up plans to begin selling the Xeon version of the Sparc translation software in the third quarter, said product manager Frank Weigel. The company also demonstrated a version of the software to run Sparc on Intel Itanium chips, a product that will go on sale in the fourth quarter, Weigel said. Both use Linux instead of Sun's Solaris operating system.
The products mark a new phase in Transitive's history: software that one company can use to compete against another. Previous versions of the company's QuickTransit software have been used to help companies through internal chip transitions: Apple Computer's switch from PowerPC to Intel x86 chips; Silicon Graphics' switch from its MIPS chips to Itanium; and, announced this week, IBM's attempt to bring x86 Linux software to its own Power processors.
Transitive's software works by translating instructions for one chip into the equivalent instructions another chip can understand. Frequently used instructions are cached so they needn't be translated again each time they're used.
Weigel asserted that QuickTransit performs well. Sparc-Solaris software generally runs faster on Xeon-Linux using Transitive's software than on machines with Sun's 1.5GHz UltraSparc IV+ chips.
The company's LinuxWorld demonstrations featured Transitive running Sparc-Solaris versions of Sybase and Oracle database software. In some cases, the software was running within a virtual machine, a compartment with its own operating system created with EMC's VMware software.
Weigel said he didn't expect customers would use Transitive's software for their performance-sensitive central applications but would be more likely to do so when it comes to secondary code. And Transitive includes software that lets Linux run the custom scripts that people wrote to automate Solaris tasks, Weigel added.

- Confusing! "Faster" but not recommended?
- "Sparc-Solaris software generally runs faster on Xeon-Linux using Transitive's software than on machines with Sun's 1.5GHz UltraSparc IV+ chips."
Ok, then why this:
"Weigel said he didn't expect customers would use Transitive's software for their performance-sensitive central applications"
No need mention that he didn't provide any industry standard benchmark results to back his claim of "faster", he (Weigel, himself) didn't recommend its use in performace-sensitive application!
I guess his faster refers that Intel is 4GHz while USIV+ is 1.5GHz, but we all know how valid a comparision is that just based on clock speed.
This comapny is just an IBM sponsored agent to throw FUD about Solaris. IBM need this company because they can not run AIX on Intel Xeon, while Solaris is on full throttle for AMD x64 now!
(No need mention performance comparision of Intel Xeon vs AMD opteron)

- Translator Faster than 1.5GHz uSPARC IV+???
- Considering how benchmarks show the USPARC IV+ generally
outperforms Intel Xeons natively in real-world tests, how can
Intel Xeon run a translator and outrun a modern uSPARC IV+?
Someone better find a non-SUN system running Intel processors
that scale to compete in this market... SUN is one of the few
vendors making >4 sockets intel compatible systems!
It is nice to see the 1.8GHz uSPARC IV+ systems making new
progress in beating the competition again.
Stupidity abounds.

I have never been a fan of Geo Targetting, but I will be interested to see how Facebook use this feature to their advantage.
Geo targeted ad's? Tag yourself in a shopping center and then you get ads from surrounding stores? Facebook will try something to use even more of our personal information to advertise.
Gret point Dan. It is scary to think of the kind of targeted ads we will recieve going forward. The depth of information Facebook can access on our personal accounts!! The era of a drive through mall may be upon us. The stores will already know what we want…
Just downloaded it on my iPhone and love it! It looks like SCVNGR is SO much better than Foursquare mainly because of the game dynamics that they've that are part of it. Now they just need to accumulate their user base because not a single person I know is using it. I'm guessing that Foursquare will simply add on some of the features that SCVNGR has in order to compete.

Actually, mine issue seems to be a little different; Since about 4 weeks ago I've noticed that it's gotten progressively harder to start the bike. I used it throughout the Minnesota winter (at least a couple times a month), and throughout that time it fired right up. However, now that the weather has started to improve, I've been ramping up on the riding.
This morning, after not riding for ~5 days, I cranked and cranked, but no start.
I will be doing the following:
* Checking fuel level (doubt it, since it's been deteriorating over time)
* Check battery health
* Check voltage going to fuel pump
* Tap fuel injectors as I crank
If anyone has any ideas regarding the fact that it got progressively worse, It'd be appreciated.
Wish me luck!
Followed Joel's instructions. Tapping on the injector through the right-hand side triangle did it. Went to auto-parts store for some Techron, but they only had Seafoam, so got a pint of that. Put in 4 OZ of the stuff on a mostly full tank, and rode around for a few miles. Turned her off, came back a while later, and fired right up.
Will update if anything changes.
Thanks for the tips and great write ups, crew!
Keep running techron concentrate in every tank for a while, but good chance the screwdriver trick worked and saved you $500 bucks which I love as am no longer in BMW service lol :)

Day 7 & 8
Day 7 - Dawson Creek
On this date in Dawson Creek, Nothing Happened. As I was loading my bike it started to rain. The weather report said that is would rain all day and be beautiful for day 8 of my ride. That was enough for me. After all this is a vacation and not some crazy endurance test! The ride will continue tomorrow.
Day 8 Dawson Creek to Laird Hot Springs
Ok, finally took the Mile 0 picture.
What an absolutely beautiful day! If this trip was over at the end of this day, it would all be worth it. This is the road I have dreamt of traveling for the past 34 years and it is even more beautiful than my wildest dreams.
If you are traveling this way, get off the main road anytime you see a sign pointing to the Old Alaska Highway and you will see some amazing sights, like the original curved bridge built in 1942.
There is even a park that looks like it hasnt changed since the early years.
Now I have heard that you need to watch out for wildlife on this highway but nobody told me about this one! Good thing Jeff isnt here!
If I was a beaver, this is where I would like to live, at least in the summer.
Near Fort Nelson, there is a section of the Old Highway and where it joined back with the new road there was a dirt road going straight ahead. Now, since I am riding a bike that begs to be taken on the dirt, it seemed like a good idea to see where it went. Here is the view at the end of the trail. No sign, no name, just a magnificent lake.
Hey cool, that panorama thing in Photoshop that Eric told me about really does work!
During this days ride I saw bear, moose, caribou and buffalo, all within sight of the highway. The days ride ended at Laird Hot Springs, a magnificent place with a long boardwalk ending at a natural hot springs.
I camped under a shelter with Jim and Bob.
Jim is from Skagway and is on his way to Colorado to ride the Ouray and Telluride trails, something I have never done. Amazing, I am heading to Alaska to see the Kennecott Mine, something he has never done. Bob is a retired ship captain and is riding the first bike I have seen with stirrups.
Check Back Often, I will add more soon!

I'm glad you posted this because I'm thinking about getting a pelham( stupid question but how it that pronounced ?) for my mare, she is really good for me but every once in a while she gets fresh and runs through the bit. I've never used a double rein before so I was looking for some tips. I have the same problem with everything saying to bit her up only they advise corkscrews and twists instead of the TT
I found that with the 2 reins, what works well for me is to have the snaffle rein between my middle and ring fingers and have the curb rein between my ring and pinkie fingers. Then when I need to use the curb, I just slide my pinkie up over the curb rein and tighten my hands. Obviously that's not "the proper" way but it works for me since I'm not showing or anything... It might also be different for me since I'm using western reins. I have one 10ft, thick, "roping" rein for the curb and a 8ft, thinner, "gaming" rein for the snaffle. The 8ft rein is just long enough that I have contact with Lacey's mouth pretty much all the time and the 10ft is long enough that I can hold it but have it never engage unless I purposefully choose to engage that rein. I kinda like that because it makes me engaging that rein all the more shocking to Lacey (because she's forgotten about it) which ups my "magical powers" quota. And because I'd like to eventually be able to go back to something gentler, if possible, I don't want her to get too used to the curb rein being "on" all the time.
However, in your case, it's probably different. :)

NFL: Will the Broncos beat the Ravens? That's what Jimmy Fallon's puppies predictAdd to Favorites |
The first 2013 NFL game will be between the Baltimore Ravens and the Denver Broncos. Who will win is anyone's guess -- unless you're the keeper of some expert football-predicting puppies.
Fortunately Jimmy Fallon is just that. The "Late Night" host called together the same pooches who correctly predicted the Super Bowl winner to determine who will be the first team to win in the 2013 NFL season.
So who did the puppies determine will take home the victory? The Broncos, by a landslide. Whether or not that ends up being the case will be determined when the two teams face off at 8:30 p.m. ET on NBC, but it seems like a good choice to put your money where the puppies are.

I joked that if she came to my house on New Year's Eve, she could rub elbows with entrepreneurs there (I thought myself quite hilarious when I said that). It made me stop and think, though. How many entrepreneurs are [&hellip... Read More

Today's guest post is by Sharon Gilmour-Glover. When it comes to business results, we're pretty good at looking at the good and the bad. In fact, we're experts when it comes to looking at the bad. Often, we only focus on bad business results because we mistakenly believe that focusing on our weaknesses and what's not working is the best way to achieve success. Actually, decades of [&hellip...

I love men. I love them as role models, mentors, and friends. I have four brothers (and one sister) so I relate very well to men. Beginning in childhood, I've learned a lot from boys (not men yet). I learned from my brothers how to climb trees and change the oil in my car. I learned how to stick up for myself and how to get [&hellip... Read More

Before the Coopr event on Thursday night (where I spoke in Amsterdam), I was talking to a local journalist about social media and its role among an executive team. He asked me, "How important is it for the leader to be involved in using social media if they want their organization to use it?" I said it's extremely important and emphasized the value in leading by example. [&hellip... Read More

Today's guest post is by Lindsay Bell. It's no secret here in the SpinSucks space that I have a great boss. And while I get teased mercilessly about my appreciation for Gini (I'm looking at YOU, Danny Brown), people need to stop and ask themselves why I'm so appreciative. There are many reasons I gush over Gini. She treats me with respect. She trusts me to [&hellip... Read More

In the fifth edition of The Three Things, Michael Schechter (whom I shall call Shrek from here on out), recommended Execute, a book written in a week (well, actually eight days) by Drew Wilson and Josh Long. The idea being, of course, that you can get big things done when you set your mind to it and really focus. So, during this National Novel Writing Month, Shrek [&hellip... Read More

I'm having a hard time with some of my fellow business leaders right now. On November 4, CEO Matt DeRose sent an email to his 600 employees stating that if Obama won a second term, he would layoff or position most of his team for part-time employment. He stated, "Increasing expenses brought on by recent regulations, taxes, and the stagnant economy" were driving his decision. On [&hellip... Read More

A couple of weeks ago, Scott Forstall, the Apple executive in charge of iOS and the maps debacle associated with the iPhone 5 release, was categorically fired. According to Gigaom, Forstall was asked to co-sign (with Apple CEO, Tim Cook) an apology letter to customers for the maps issue. He refused, which looks to be the straw that broke the camel's back. Though he'd been with [&hellip... Read More

My song this time, doesn't really fit my blog ideas that I will mention, but it really shouts out what my heart has been feeling lately. So I'm sharing it. Besides..it's a good song..and now…
for the rest of the day..and maybe tomorrow..
it WILL be stuck in your head. I guarantee it. heehehehe You're welcome!!
Was gonna save this for tomorrow, but after MUCH searching I finally found these!!!
I SHALL be thoroughly entertained. AND if you HAVEN'T seen these movies, YOU ARE A BLASPHEMER!!! HOW DO YOU NOT LOVE TARANTINO??? YOU HIPPIE! pfffttttt. Get outta my interwebz space.
Juuuuussttt kidding…about the space thing..you're still a blasphemer..good god..
And now to business..I went out with quite possibly my VERY best bestie this past Friday and made a new friend at that.
OH YEA. We are hotness. We know. Geez I really look like Barbara Eden in that blonde wig! I'm lovin' it! Is it bad if I told the one douche that wanted to buy me a drink to just give me the $7 because I wanted a cheeseburger?
This cute blonde is Ashley, but Imma call her "Smashley" because had I been able to drink, we woulda been all kinds of hopped up on some yummy wine!!! This girl had me crackin up all night. She will quickly become a partner in crime I do believe..
At Kingfish Dive bar we saw this dude who looked like this..
I swear it! Tall n skinny n everything! So, while Kim was talking to one of his friends, Smashley and I stood right beside him and sang this with our mouths..In my retardedness, I didn't think to pull it up on my iPhone while we were standing there..dang it!! That woulda been sooo much better!!! heehehehehe
(You're still singin "I just keep chasin pavements…" aren't you.. Don't lie..Blasphemer.)
So while we were out, or rather, on the boring yet sober drive home for me, I started thinking about some things. See, recently the Grams got me this kick ass coffee mug. It says "When the going gets tough, tell me I'm pretty." Of all the fears I had when I got this cancer diagnosis, being ugly WASN'T one of them. I've tried my damnedest to prevent the cancer from stealing too much from me and have been fairly successful. Really, all it got were my ovaries, uterus and my ass..and between you and me..I'm takin the ass back! See, I've decided, that, after all I've been through and after all my best friends have been through (which I won't go into in detail on here because that is their biz..but my dearest and closest friends know who they are and know the crap they've dealt with too.) one of the few things that cannot be stolen from you is Pretty. Pretty is obviously in the eye of the beholder and know what?? Even though I've NO HAIR and a huge scar down my belly, I felt damn hot in my jeans, faded leopard print top and I Dream of Jeannie hair. I saw dudes checkin me out. I saw dudes checkin my girls out. We are hotness and WE have attitudes and those attitudes keep us all goin. We feed on each other's energy and laugh at each other's stupid jokes. (erm…maybe they just laugh at MY stupid jokes..or even.. AT my stupid jokes.. but that's okay by me. hehe)
And, looking at these pictures completely reinforces my belief in that.
(Thank you Kim. I'd be damn lost without you! Got this in a fortune cookie and it reminded me of you. So I saved it. :)
So suck on that one, canser. YOU CAN'T STEAL MY PRETTY!!! I WON'T LET YOU!!!
You blasphemer.
Hugs and Sunny Surf,
Jessica and Gertrude
P.S. Shoutout to the fam at Ivan's Meat Market. Some old man I know said y'all love readin my blog. heeheheee That made my heart smile! This beautiful mess loves writing for y'all!!! Keep on keepin on yo!!

NATIONAL Microfinance Bank (NMB) has offered 50m/- sponsorship to Maisha Plus, a reality television show that will this year include Female Food Hero (FFH).
NMB's Chief executive Officer, Mark Wiessing said on Wednesday that the sponsorship that specifically focuses on the Oxfam run FFH was appropriate for small-scale agriculture investment in the fight against poverty, hunger and joblessness among women. "Women grow, process, market and prepare much of the household's food," Mr Wiessing said. "In many places, women are also the keepers of seeds and protectors of water."
He said the bank believes in investment in productivity, resilience and sustainability of small-scale food producers particularly women. This year's edition of Maisha Plus, apart from housing FFH, will also accommodate youth who will intermingle with food heroes to instill in the young generation an interest to participate in agricultural activities at a tender age.
Oxfam Country Director, Monica Gorman said this year's FFH in Maisha Plus would bring together producers and consumers to debate on issues around the nature of food system. "By profiling the individual food producers and modelling the best small scale producer investment needed, we highlight what we mean by food justice," she said.
Maisha Plus CEO Ali Masoud said the edition will house 15 FFH's finalists for two weeks and in the last three days 30 youths will join them to get first hand experience on food cultivation. "What we want is to start planting seeds for the youth to like and love agro-activities, inspiring them to become farmers in the future," Mr Masoud said.
The winner of this year FFH, according to Mwanahamisi Salim, Oxfam's Campaign and Advocacy Manager for Economic Justice, will be announced at world food day in October 16. "The winners will take prizes that enable them to increase productivity," she said.

42 year old man | Mercer Island, WA, USA | Seeking women 30-35 within 100 miles
Life is all about taking a chance and you may be pleasantly surprised..
I love life and feel it is important to enjoy it to the fullest. I'm also professionally driven and looking for a woman that is professionally driven as well. She doesn't have to be a female Einstein, but I'm looking for her to have a strong desire to be educated in something she is passionate about. I like to have fun, but most importantly, I enjoy exploring new experiences. For example, I haven't gone camping in many years and recently went on a hike in the Cascades and decided, I need to go camping. I enjoy getting up and having breakfast at one of the many great breakfast spots around Seattle, or go to a coffee shop, swallow some caffeine and read. I also enjoy occasional trips to Vancouver BC. I'm looking for a woman that can laugh and have fun, but also someone that I can have an intimate conversation with. Life should be about enjoying it and letting the future dictate what happens. I'm not into drama or stress. I'm very carefree with these things and not into applying pressure or being pressured. With that said, I'm pretty sure of myself. If we connect, great. If we don't, I don't think either of us will lose any sleep over it, but I'm a firm believer that a guy could never have enough friends.. I like to do alot of different things and I'm not looking for a clone of myself. I'm looking for a woman with her own unique qualities, goals and aspirations. Laughing in general is a key to longevity. I learned that communication is critical to not only a successful relationship, but important for close friendships as well. So, there you have it.. I know it's a lot to take in.. But, just be you and everything will be fine..

Middle of the Road
You can say I've traveled around: Lived in Europe twice and loved it (Germany and Italy). The Pomegranate in Redmond is one of my favorite breakfast spots. I also enjoy the occasional trip to Vancouver and Whistler..
Favorite Music: Rhythm and Blues, Classical, Pop, Rock, Hip-hop, and some country music Favorite show: 24, House, Extreme Makeover Home Edition, Intervention Favorite foods: my palate likes so many things and open to so many different food
A little bit of everything.. Sports, music, movies, hiking, relaxing, partying, hanging out with friends, reading, etc.. I am a well-rounded person, looking to explore new things..
Newsweek and the Huffingtonpost.com when I can, but mostly medical books.. Trying to learn as much as I can about medicine. Last non-medical read was "Threat Vector" by Tom Clancy..

Why did you decide to get involved with the show?
The concept just really appealed to me. I went to meet Rihanna so she could explain the show to me, and I could see how excited she was, and her real passion for this exciting fresh undiscovered designer. To find someone who hadnt been noticed before, was something that really appealed to me.
Were you interested in fashion before joining Girls Aloud?
Well, I was always really fussy about what I wore, but I came from a small town where everyone would just wear tracksuits growing up. So I wasnt surrounded by trends or fashion choices, and also I had no money. So it wasnt until I got into the band and started working with different stylists, and then I was presented with different trends and different ways of wearing things. I really liked doing shoots and seeing how things can work together. My fascination with fashion grew from there. At the time I was having a bit of an identity crisis, and it helped me to figure out where I was going. Fashion can really give you that if you need it to. Its like, if you need to come across a certain way for a meeting, you can wear an outfit that helps you become that person. Your clothes can affect your personality.
Styled To Rock is all about stage wear, so you must have been able to bring a lot to the table in terms of advice?
Yeah. I think designing stage wear is all about understanding the different artists and their individual needs. Everybody is vulnerable when theyre on stage or on TV or doing an interview, and its important they feel comfortable and as much like themselves as they can. So the designer has to get into their mindset and help them achieve that. The designers had to understand that, they cant just create something thats going to impress us mentors, because that means nothing if the client isnt comfortable.
Did you ever wear outfits you werent comfortable in, during the early part of your career?
Yeah. I was so young, and I think when you start out, you do just think the stylist knows best. Inevitably as Ive grown up, Ive become aware of what works for me and what I want to be styled in.
How does your own personal style differ from the Girls Aloud style?
When were working together, its about whats best for the band and thats what were all really good at. We all have our own input, and were really good at working as a team, but we do all dress very differently so its quite a tricky process to make that work for everybody. In real life, I just like cool, tracky pants and a creeper, or jeans and a little jacket. Quite a relaxed look.
Can you describe the standard of the designers on Styled to Rock?
I thought they were brilliant. I was actually really surprised by how good they were, especially considering the budget and time frame they had because it wasnt easy. They were under pressure too, designing for some huge clients, but they still managed to be individually creative and come up with something totally different each week. I really loved seeing them grow as people.
Did you find it difficult to criticise their work?
Ultimately, as a designer you have to be aware of the trends that work and the silhouettes that work on different body shapes. Thats just a given. So it was hard for me to see when that didnt work. For example if a particular designer who, granted might usually do menswear, didnt understand that women have boobs.
What was it like to work with Henry?
It was amazing! I love Henry to death, hes such an amazing person. I didnt actually realise how intense his day work was. He works so hard for his line. If we werent filming, hed be off on Skype calls for his brand, or hed have me try things on because his deadline was up. He so deserves his success.
Whats it like to be his inspiration?
Oh my gosh. Im such a massive fan of what he does, so thats a massive compliment. His stuff's only growing and getting better, as well. I go in and he says, Do you like this?, and its another amazing piece, and you go, Where does your creativity end?. Its constant! Hes so incredibly talented.
The judges with the contestants
Why do you think he does feel inspired by you?
I dont know, gosh! I suppose I dont have any rules about what I wear. Ill wear anything, crazy as it might be, even if it doesnt match. He likes to have fun and so do I, so perhaps thats why.
Can you describe how you met?
Oh it was so annoying, he had all these brides at his show, and not one had red hair! It was like, oh, wow. So I told him off.
Do you often tell off designers for not using redheads?
[laughs] No, but it was just so obvious, because he had every colour under the sun apart from red! We just got on after that. Were just on the same page. I dont like it when he gets too serious though. He says, Come on, we have to be professional, but I like it when we have a giggle.
Nicola with fellow mentors, Henry Holland and Lysa Cooper
And how did Lysa fit in?
Brilliantly! The three of us had a little groove going on. We understood which each persons role was as well. We were coming at it from different angles but our opinions werent dissimilar. We knew who was brilliant and who needed more help. My role was to give the artists perspective, and to talk about the logistics of stagewear, and also hopefully I told them about how to inject your personality into your clothes, too.
Whats the best advice you can give to any aspiring designer?
I want things to be innovative. I want to see someones creativity on the garment and I dont just want to see a jumper, and a trouser. If you bring something different to it, I will always be excited.
What was your relationship with Rihanna like; had you met previously?
I think we met Rihanna way back when shed first started and Girls Aloud had first started, very briefly. But no, I hadnt met properly before the show. I was definitely a fan, just of her style alone, she follows London fashion closely and channels it. She isnt someone who looks like shes been dressed. She has fun with her clothes. What you see on the outside is whats going on inside with her. Its how i feel about clothes, too. I tried to explain this to the designers: your clothes are an extension of your personality. There has to be a connection between the artists and the garments.
Your final shoot went on all night until 6am. What do you talk about to someone like Rihanna for all those hours?
Oh, gosh. We talked about everything. We talked about nails, her body chains, her birthday. Just girlie chat - with Henry there too! She was just lovely.
Styled to Rock is on SkyLiving, Tuesdays at 9pm

Torso of a Standing Buddha
Buddha images of the Gupta period handsomely blend characteristics of naturalism with iconography such as a clinging garment or a standing posture with a slightly bent right knee. This particular example is the product of a school at Sarnath that developed a spiritually reflective sculptural style with smooth, subtle modeling. This style gradually became the most influential model both within India and beyond.
The naturalistic rendering of this figure and the monastic robe conceived as a diaphanous cloth covering both shoulders with smooth, clinging drapery are typical of figures from a fifth-century Buddhist monastery at Sarnath, site of the Buddha Sakyamuni's first sermon.

FORT WALTON BEACH — The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is in a balancing act: maintaining the Florida black bear's success story while working with people affected by their population increase.
"If bears become vermin, their populations are going back down," said David Telesco, the FWC's bear management program coordinator.
About 40 people gathered Tuesday evening at the University of West Florida's Fort Walton Beach center to bring questions and concerns as well as to learn more about the West Panhandle Bear Management Unit.
The unit is made up of parts of Escambia, Holmes, Okaloosa, Santa Rosa and Walton counties, Telesco said.
In 2002, about 100 bears were estimated to live in the area. That population likely has increased, but an estimate will not be done until 2015.
Last Friday's shooting of the mother bear and cub on East Ponderosa Road was touched upon in the start of the meeting. FWC officials said only that the investigation is still open.
Many of the questions and concerns posed to FWC representatives centered on the agency's response to residents' calls and keeping bears off people's property.
The FWC wants to gather data on patterns of bear interactions with people, Telesco said. Often, the bear's actions — rummaging through trash bins and walking through yards — stem from someone's garbage can being ripe for the picking.
"We're not just saying it because we like to say it," Telesco said, referring to the agency's recommendation to have a bear-proof can. "It works."
A big problem is the lack of consensus from neighborhoods, sanitation companies and other agencies.
One neighbor will get a bear-proof bin, but still will have bears walking through the yard to get to an accessible container.
Garbage collectors will accept some bear-proof devices but will not pick up garbage from cans secured in other ways.
A local Bear Stakeholder Group is being organized to get residents and local officials together to discuss bear problems and concerns with the FWC, said Kaitlin O'Connell, the agency's stakeholder coordinator.
"In some ways we're suffering from our success," Telesco said. "We need to figure out how to live with bears."
WANT TO ATTEND? The FWC will host another meeting about bears at 6:30 p.m. next Tuesday at the Coast Branch Library in Santa Rosa Beach.

Best practice high school chicago
Noon was high on the High-place, the second noon of the feast; And heat and shameful slumber weighed on people and priest; And the heart drudged slow in bodies heavy with monstrous meals; And the senseless limbs were scattered abroad like spokes of wheels; And crapulous women sat and stared at the stones anigh With a bestial droop of the lip and a swinish rheum in the eye. As about the dome of the bees in the time for the drones to fall, The dead and the maimed are scattered, and lie, and stagger, and crawl; So best practice high school chicago the grades of the terrace, in the ardent eye of the day, The half-awake and the sleepers clustered and crawled and lay; And loud as the dome of the bees, in the time of a swarming horde, A horror of many insects hung in the air and roared. Rua looked and wondered; he said to himself in his heart Poor are the pleasures of life, and death is the better part. But lo. on the higher benches a cluster best practice high school chicago tranquil folk Sat by themselves, nor raised their serious eyes, nor spoke Women with robes unruffled and garlands duly arranged, Gazing far from the feast with faces of best practice high school chicago estranged; And quiet amongst the quiet, and fairer than all the fair, Taheia, the well-descended, Taheia, heavy of hair. And the soul of Rua awoke, courage enlightened his eyes, And he uttered a summoning shout and called on the clan to rise. Over against him at once, in the spotted shade of the trees, Owlish and blinking creatures scrambled to hands and knees; On the grades of the sacred terrace, the driveller woke to fear, And the hand of the ham-drooped warrior brandished a wavering spear.
