Next-generation Beats Studio headphones with enchanced sound, 20-hour rechargeable batteries, and more.
One of the world's most popular headphones have been completely redesigned and reimagined. The new Beats Studio is lighter, sexier, stronger, and more comfortable, with precision sound, Adaptive Noise Canceling, a 20-hour rechargeable battery, and RemoteTalk. It has all the energy and excitement you expect from Beats, plus a powerful, reengineered sound.
The Beats Acoustic Engine makes your listening experience intimate, personal, and real with a signature DSP software that is designed to generate the emotional experience that Dr. Dre, Jimmy Iovine, and some of the music industry's greatest rock, hip-hop, pop, electronic, and R&B producers want you to feel. This is how music would sound if the artist could play it back for you in person.
Silence the noise from your daily commute or the drama from your loud neighbors with no-compromise dual-mode Adaptive Noise Canceling. When you're listening to music, ANC automatically strikes a balance between your music and the world outside. If you only want to use the headphone to cancel external noise, ANC only mode automatically increases the level of noise cancellation, for a quieter world.
Dead batteries can kill your vibe in a flash. The New Beats Studio fixes this with a 20-hour rechargeable battery. To prevent wasting energy, the Auto On/Off feature turns off the headphone when you unplug, and with the visible Battery Fuel Gauge, you always know how much juice is available. Forget specialized adapters; the New Studio can be charged via micro USB almost anywhere.
These legendary headphones have been redesigned and reimagined with the precision of a high-end sports car. The New Beats Studio headphones are streamlined with fast curves, smooth surfaces, and no visible screws. They're 13 percent lighter and have a stronger, more comfortable headband along with softer ear cups and an ergonomic bellow to create a flexible, custom fit for every head shape.
Case sold separately.

ACC Blog
Player (Team) of the Week
Miami Hurricanes
Beat Duke & Florida State at home by an average of roughly 25 points per game and that is a statement week for Jim Larranaga's program. The 'Canes absolutely dominated Duke for 40 minutes and did much of the same to the Seminoles. The team got a huge boost when Reggie Johnson came back earlier than expected and played against the Blue Devils. This team sits all alone atop the ACC standings at 6-0 with a winnable game at Virginia Tech on Wednesday. Durand Scott, Kenny Kadji and Shane Larkin have formed a three headed monster for Miami. The three combined for 30 points, 11 assists and 14 rebounds against the Seminoles on Sunday after a stellar performance against Duke where the trio went off for 65 points, 9 assists and 22 rebounds. This is the best team in the ACC right now with a two game lead on the rest of the pack. They travel to Raleigh for a big showdown with the Wolfpack this Saturday where the Pack are undefeated this season.
Who's Hot
Olivier Hanlan - Boston
While the team has struggled mightily this season, Boston College may have found their next star in Hanlan. One of the lesser known freshman in the ACC, Hanlan has been one of the most consistent diaper dandies in all of college basketball. He's second on the Eagles in scoring behind Ryan Anderson and has been the lone bright spot on a team that has struggled mightily in ACC play. He has scored in double figures in every ACC contests thus far and has eclipsed 17 points in 5 out of those 7 games. He rebounds extremely well for his position and along with the aforementioned Anderson, should give Head Coach Steve Donahue something to look forward to next season and beyond as the two form one of the better inside outside tandems in the league.
Who's Cold
Marcus Paige - North Carolina
Paige is learning that it is a lot harder to replace a lottery pick than you think. To call his first month in ACC play a struggle would be putting it nicely. He's shooting an abysmal 24.5% from the field in ACC and was completely dominated by NC State's Lorenzo Brown on Saturday. Poor shot selection has been his problem of late as he just doesn't seem to be in the flow of the offense. Against NC State, the freshman point guard was so out of it that Roy Williams replaced him in the second half with seldom used Gardner-Webb transfer Luke Davis. It was a telling sign for how poorly Paige has played lately. Point guard is the most difficult position to play on the basketball court and most freshman take their lumps during that first year. Paige is doing exactly that lately but he's talented enough to overcome it and will by season's end.
Top 5 Coaching Performances
Jim Larranaga - Miami
With the circus surrounding Miami's athletics program and the injury to Reggie Johnson, the Job that Larranaga has done with this team has been spectacular. Picked to finish behind NC State, Duke and North Carolina by the coaches, Miami is undefeated in conference play with signature wins over Duke and Carolina. A big game on the road against preseason favorite NC State will show us just how good the 'Canes are.
Mark Gottfried - NC State
Gottfried created a buzz with the State program after reaching the Sweet 16 a season ago. Add in a stellar recruiting class and this team has the talent to win it all. But talent isn't all you need. Gott has had to massage egos on this team and try and mesh the elder statesman with the young gunners. Lack of depth due to a lost recruiting class after the coaching change is a big concern going forward. The jury is still out as this team has suffered bad losses at Maryland and at Wake but wins over Duke and UNC (first in 13 tries) has to count for something.
Mike Krzyzewski - Duke
Coach K could be on the top of this list year after year. He is the greatest coach of all time, that's a forgone conclusion but no one expected Duke to be this good. Without the injury to Ryan Kelly this team could easily be undefeated. The development and progression of Mason Plumlee and [Player Quinn Cook] along with the outstanding play of freshman Rasheed Suliamon has this team in position to be a Final Four favorite come March.
Mark Turgeon - Maryland
It's hard to replace a legend. Most coaches don't succeed when tasked with replacing a guy who won a National Championship and is the program's all-time leader in wins, which is why I feel for the guy who replaces Coach K. Turgeon has bucked that stereotype thus far and has this Maryland team playing well, especially on the defensive end. Now if he could just start running the offense through Alex Len instead of Dez Wells this team could get closer to being the team they should be.
Tony Bennett - Virginia
After losing Mike Scott from last year's squad, the Cavaliers were supposed to take a step back this season. They were picked to finish in the bottom half of the league but through 7 ACC games, they are all alone in second place. Joe Harris has stepped up in Scott's absence and this team play's a different brand of basketball than most are accustomed to. The slow paced Princeton style offense and tough, physical defense may be boring but it has been effective for Coach Bennett's squad.

As a Duke fan, Miami played outstanding last week. That was not even a game. Their backcourt crushed Duke. Not to take anything away from Miami; but Cook, Curry, and Thornton combined for a 1-29 performance, that is unacceptable. Their guards had what 60+ points alone? They didn't even need Reggie Johnson back for that game, that is the sad part.
Miami is suprising me with how well they are playing. They continued to play well when Reggie went down, and now that he is back, I don't know what ACC team can knock them off.

Corporate, Sovereign Bond Risk Tumbles in Europe, Swaps Show
Nov. 30 (Bloomberg) -- The cost of insuring against default on European corporate debt fell, according to traders of credit-default swaps.
Contracts on the Markit iTraxx Crossover Index of 50 companies with mostly high-yield credit ratings dropped 33 basis points to 758.5, according to JPMorgan Chase & Co. at 3 p.m. in London. A decline signals improved perceptions of credit quality.
The Markit iTraxx Europe Index of 125 companies with investment-grade ratings was down 11.75 at 184 basis points. The Markit iTraxx Financial Index linked to senior debt of 25 banks and insurers declined 29.5 basis points to 301.5 and the subordinated gauge was 42 lower at 533.
A basis point on a credit-default swap protecting 10 million euros ($13.4 million) of debt from default for five years is equivalent to 1,000 euros a year. Swaps pay the buyer face value in exchange for the underlying securities or the cash equivalent should a borrower fail to adhere to its debt agreements.

As we all know in order to receive the best ever experience from our PC, first we must give it the very best hardware. But every overclock knows to prepare for the tricks that the inevitable high temperatures will play with his hardware. One of the main components intended to counter these tricks is the good CPU cooler. Our friends from Sunbeam supplied us with their new Core-Contact Freezer cooler. Is this cooler exactly what most users need? Let's find out.
Compared to NH-C12P this cooler is a little heavier and almost as big, yet much more affordable. Here are its specifications:

The dimensions of the cooler are similar to the ones of Noctua NH-C12P, but it is heavier by about 30 gram. It has 4 heatpipes, just like Noctua NH-U12P, that is much bigger and heavier. Now it's time for a closer look.

LJ Strenio's Beastly Season Edits
For the past couple seasons LJ Strenio has continued to solidify his reputation as one of the hardest working, fearless, fun loving & naturally talented skiers around. Unfortunately LJ hurt his knee this winter and only got to film til' January. Here's to the best pre-February segment of the year and putting his Stepups and Bacons to good use!
Part One
Part Duex
SFR Tour starts
The SFR tour consists of 3 stops and the overall winner will get a wildcard for the Euro X-Games in Val Thorens, where the first stop was held this weekend.
A couple of our MC's travelled to France to start off their contest season under sunny skys and a well shaped course.
Roy Kittler once again finished up 3rd on the podium, followed by french rookie jules bonnair as 5th. However Julien Eustache and Leo Taillefer had problems to stomp all of their tricks, so they have to step it up in the next 2 comps to have a chance to qualify for the X-Games.
LINE Team Mixtape 2010
The Line Skis Mountain Command Team is a mix of the most talented, unique and individual skiers in the world. How can a bunch of individuals be a team you ask? Their creativity is the bond that connects them, driving the voice of our brand and beating the drum of new ways to look at the mountain, the streets, backcountry and everywhere in between. We're proud of these riders who every day bring something new to all aspects of skiing. Where there's snow and enough room to slide on it, you'll find Line MCs. Enjoy the edit and please purchase/download/watch the films in the list at the end to support the companies that support these riders and help push skiing to new levels.
King Of Style
Vote for our riders LJ Strenio and Joss Christensen for King of Style 2011 in Stockholm. All you gotta do is hit "Like" you lazy bums. Obviously your not skiing, why don't you fill the void by watching these?

Freeskier Magazine Park Ski Test
Line Skis were represented well at the annual Freeskier Magazine Park Ski Test. It was held in none other than one of the best parks in the world, Keystone's Area 51. Check the video of the Chronic Cryptonite, Stepup, Afterbang, Blend, and Shadow in action below.
LJ Strenio's Stock Rising
With LJ Strenio's reputation as one of the hardest working riders out there, it's no surprise that people are starting to give him his rightful cred. Check out Poorboyz Photographer/ESPN Blogger Nate Abbott's shot out to LJ in a recent blog post. In describing Strenio he begins with a fitting sentence saying "Sweat pouring down, helmet askew, skis delaminating (unlikely because he's on Stepups), boot buckles failing, pants torn to shreds, hoody barely showing its original color throught snowmobile dirt — it isn't hard to miss rookie LJ Strenio."

Brunei officially out of Challenge Cup qualifiers; Azkals ready to go
The AFC Challenge Cup Qualifiers for Group E's tournament has been reduced to three nations. This after Brunei Darussalam officially withdrew from the competition due to "unavoidable circumstances."
The AFC Challenge Cup Qualifiers' Group E has become a three-team tourney with the withdrawal of Brunei from the competition. Now Cambodia, Philippines, and Turkmenistan have fewer but harder matches to play. Roehl Niño Bautista
Philippine Football Federation General Secretary Atty. Edwin Gatanes stated that the PFF was only officially informed by the Brunei Federation today through the AFC match commissioners at noon today. Official communication from the AFC is still forthcoming as of press time.
Brunei's withdrawal came as a surprise to everyone. "They even asked for early arrival," said Atty. Gatanes, "and the Philippines as host obliged and made arrangements."
Philippine National Football Team Coach Michael Weiss for his part said he cannot understand how Brunei, who he called a "serious football nation", could pull out of the competition just one day before. "[Their withdrawal] affects more than just our Group, we can only shake our heads," said the German.
[Related: What Brunei's pull-out from the Challenge Cup means for the Philippines]
[Related: What Brunei's pull-out from the Challenge Cup means for the Philippines]
The Philippines, which was scheduled to play the Brunei side on March 22, Friday, at 7:30 PM, now has two more days to prepare for their match versus Cambodia. "That is two extra days for our Europe-based players to adjust to the heat," Weiss said, also noting the difference in temperature from the countries where the other Azkals are based.
Cambodia head coach Prak Sovannara said Brunei's withdrawal does not affect their preparation. Turkmenistan's Coach Ýazguly Hojageldyýew simply stated that their target is simply to qualify to the Maldives, the next step in the Challenge Cup. Turkmenistan have been training since January in preparation for this tournament.
In comparison, the Philippines has only had five or six days of training together, along with two or three "mini camps" in the past month. Weiss remarked that this was because of the ongoing United Football League tournament. Of course, the fact that the Azkals have many Europe-based players is also a big factor in this.
The German Coach also briefly complained of the "below standard" pitches in the country, and general lack of football infrastructure.
However, Weiss also added that he feels more excitement than pressured for this tournament.
As far as the rest of the tournament is concerned, the games will go on as scheduled. Cambodia will play their two games on Friday and Sunday. The Philippines will play their two games on Sunday and Tuesday. Turkmenistan will have a four-day break between their games on Friday and Tuesday.
Turkmenistan are most favored in the Group, having been in the Finals of the Challenge Cup twice before.
Patino Impressive
Javier Patiño, the Philippines' newest Azkal slated to make his debut in the Challenge Cup Qualifiers received all praises from Coach Weiss and teammates Rob Gier and Chieffy Caligdong.
"He's got good quality, which is good for us and good for the team," Gier said, also noting that Patino's former team Cordoba FC was able to play versus Spanish powerhouse Barcelona last year. "We're happy to have him," added Caligdong.
"He's committed," remarked Coach Weiss, telling the press how Patiño came back to the Philippines twice in a month to ensure that all his documents were in order. Patino has also since moved to Buriram United a team in Thailand's Football League, which brings him closer to the Philippines.
The Philippines' first game in the Challenge Cup Qualifiers will be on Sunday, March 24, 2013, against Cambodia at 7:30 PM. Games will be held at Rizal Memorial Stadium. - CLP, GMA News

Tourism and Gaming
With the star power of Las Vegas and the diversity of natural settings, Hospitality and Tourism is the state's iconic consumption-oriented industry and a major economic engine that creates tens of thousands of jobs for Nevadans.
Given its leadership, Nevada is focused on leveraging its intellectual capital in hospitality, tourism and related leisure services to diversify the traditionally service-oriented industry into higher-value and innovative activities that would create higher-skill and higher-paying jobs, expand the state's exports, and even open up new opportunities for IT-based activities.
Central to that goal, the William F. Harrah College of Hotel Administration on the campus of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, ranks as one of the country's top two college hospitality programs. The school's faculty has written more than 30 textbooks that are used in hospitality programs all over the world.
With more than 150,000 hotel rooms, Las Vegas is the ideal living laboratory for
the study of hospitality. Programs include hotel administration; culinary arts and beverage management; service, lodging and resort management; recreation; professional golf management; meetings and events management; and sports and leisure services.

TFI Interactive, Games for Change, and Storyscapes this year were, as in the past, wildly stimulating and provocative experiences at the Tribeca Film Festival. But I found myself wondering if in the interactive space, we're ready to get a little definition on what we're talking about. For instance: Is there anything we can't call interactive? At […] more »
Four years ago, a police killing in rural Buckfield, Jamaica was caught on camera and uploaded to YouTube.

NBC brings current affairs game to Facebook
Facebookers are being challenged to test their knowledge in a new application created by NBC.
The "What's Your ICue?" app uses the news channel's vast archive and then pits Facebook members either one on one or in teams.
They have to answer trivia questions on current events, history, arts and technology.
NBC already has an educational website called iCue.com, and the application is built around the same premise.
NBC News CFO Adam Jones told Reuters: "There's no video trivia application on Facebook as it exists so we felt there was an opportunity to jump in."

Last night Ashley Greene vamped it up at the LA premiere of The Apparition and while other, less astute fashionistas are slobbering obsequiously about her Donna Karan dress, I'm not overly enthusiastic about this look.
Obviously Ash is gorgeous and fit, but the dress seems Prom-ish and over-the-top for a horror movie screening. And her lipstick also irks me, darlings. I would have rather seen a smokey-eye-and-nude-lip combo or perhaps a perfectly matching shade of pink, but this color is too dark.
Am I the only one who senses something is off about Ashley's latest red carpet look?

MINIATURE surgical robots will soon be ready to embark on a fantastic voyage through our bodies, homing in on the part that's ailing and fixing it from the inside. Unlike today's robotic surgeons, these tiny machines may make some of their own decisions (see "The rise of the miniature medical robots"). Who then will take responsibility if things go wrong: the human surgeon who deployed the robot or the people who designed or programmed it? At present it is not clear. And will patients greet medibots as the logical successors to the scanning and keyhole surgery that have made modern surgery less invasive? Or is the idea of autonomous machines swimming in our eyes or crawling through our hearts just too creepy? Such a question needs to be addressed. Medibots could revolutionise healthcare: it would be a pity if squeamishness got in the way.

I understood how to create a morph with Hexagon 2.5 and impoting it into DAZStudio 4.
However, this process creates a global morph.
How can I create only a face morph?
best regards,
For which figure? Genesis doesn't support partial morphs, there's only one geometry (which belongs to the root node). It doesn't, however, matter - a morph will change only those bits of the mesh you alter, it won't stop morphs on the unchanged parts from working normally (nor indeed will it stop morphs on the parts it does affect) - and you can place the controller on whichever body part you like if the root is not a logical or convenient location.
DAZ Studio Frequently Asked Questions
Index of free DAZ Studio scripts and plugins list
What do you mean by
you can place the controller on whichever body part you like
you can place the controller on whichever body part you like
When loading a morph in you should be able to choose where the control is placed. You can also move it using the Property Editor.
I use the bridge between DAZStudio and Hexagon.
I don't see how to choose where the control is placed.
Is it a Morph Loader feature?
I think you need to go to Edit>Preferences>Interface and under Hexagon Bridge enable the Advacned interface option, that will give you extra options.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—A visit to the Washington National Cathedral will make you feel very small.
Not just in a spiritual sense, though devout Christians might well experience that sort of personal humility. But standing in the cathedral's nave, you can't help but feel physically diminutive.
The ceilings are 102 feet high, and the cathedral's exterior is almost as long as two football fields. "Did you know," volunteer Charles Wells offers, "that if you laid the Washington Monument on its side, it would fit inside the center aisle?"
Nothing brings home the sheer size of the cathedral quite like the round stained glass window on the church's north side, one of three "rose windows" in the nave. Standing on the floor below, you gaze up and marvel at the lovely colors as the sunlight streams through. From this vantage point, the window's size doesn't make an impression. Then the tour guide informs you that the window is actually 26 feet in diameter, and that the seemingly small image of Jesus Christ at its center is actually 6 feet tall. That's when you whisper, "Wow" and stare at the window in amazement.
Yes, the National Cathedral - formally, it's the Cathedral Church of St. Peter and St. Paul - is the second-largest church in the United States (after St. John's in New York) and the sixth-largest in the world. The top of the central tower, at 676 feet above sea level, is considered the highest point in Washington.
But if the cathedral was only about its size, it would be little more than a curiosity.
Take an hour-long guided tour, led by one of more than 1,000 volunteers who staff the cathedral, and you'll receive fascinating lessons in theology, architecture, art and American history.
Woodrow Wilson is interred here, the only U.S. president buried in the nation's capital. So are Helen Keller and her teacher, Anne Sullivan. Their tomb is marked by a plaque engraved in English and, beneath that, in Braille letters whose colors have been rubbed smooth by years of loving fingers.
The church's 215 stained glass windows include depictions of Bible scenes - Old Testament in the main part of the nave, Gospels of the New Testament up front by the choir. There are also scenes commemorating U.S. history. In the War Memorial Chapel, one of nine smaller chapels within the cathedral, stained glass images recall the Battle of Midway and the raising of the flag at Iwo Jima. Adjacent to this chapel is the Children's Chapel, done to the scale of a 6-year-old as a special place to mourn those who died young.
Like the stunning stained glass, the cathedral's tapestries represent a painstaking attention to detail that creates a breathtaking image.
The artwork - beginning with the sculptures of Adam above the front door - is designed to tell the story of humankind, from creation to redemption.
After the guided tour, visitors are left to explore on their own - a self-guided tour with handouts pointing you to different parts of the church, or perhaps to the seventh-story observation gallery for a panoramic view of the city.
But most of all, you just find yourself looking at the cathedral, both inside and out. It is a house of God, but you are amazed by works of beauty that were created by human hands.
Getting there
Take I-64 West and turn onto I-295 North at exit 200. Go about 14 miles, then merge onto I-95 North (it's a left exit) toward D.C. As you reach Washington, take exit 170B onto I-495 North. Follow 495, crossing over the American Legion Bridge, into Maryland and take the Bethesda exit onto Wisconsin Avenue. The cathedral - you'll see its towers long before you get there - is about seven miles ahead on your left, at the intersection of Wisconsin and Massachusetts.
Metro: Visitors who are familiar with D.C.'s public transportation can simply drive to Northern Virginia and take the Metro rail into Washington.
Parking: A garage is under construction, but until it is completed (probably late this year), on-site parking is limited, but spots can often be found on South Road and Pilgrim Street alongside the cathedral. (Parking is more plentiful during the summer, when school is out of session.)
From the Peninsula: Starting from downtown Newport News, it's about 175 miles each way. If you catch a break on traffic, you can get to the cathedral in a little over three hours. But be forewarned: D.C. commuter traffic is brutal in the afternoon and can easily add two hours to your return trip. If you don't mind getting home a little late, consider staying in D.C. for an early dinner to allow the traffic to thin out a bit before you head back.

Patna,the present capital of state of Bihar,has a glorious history of ancient past. It is credited to have the capital of the greatv Indian empires like Nandas,Mauryas, Sungas and Gupta. Few cities of India can claim such a chequered and continuous history of nearly 2500 years like that of Patna. Patna is famous internationally for its delicious Digha Dudhias Mangoes.
It is under the Mauryans that the name Patliputra of the city had come to
be more commonly used. Meghasthenes mentions it with the Greek name of Patliputra
and gives a very elaborate description of the various parts of the city,its fortifications,
and its complicated municipal 0rganisation.
The Explorations and Excavations at Patna
Buchanan wasd the first to carry out a regular survey of Patna for its ancient
ruins. He was in fact aware that Patliputra was the ancient nam of Patna.
When was this new township or Pattana or Patna born ?
We know from the Maner inscription of 1126 A.D. tha Gahadvala
King Govindachandra of Kanauj ,granted a village NAMED Padali in Maniari-Pattala-Maner is hardly 20 miles (31 kms) from oldPatna City area to a Brahmin named Gunesvarasvamin alongwith another village named Gunave, a name which obviously links itself with the name of Brahmin.Padali,it may be presumed safely, is the same as th ancient village Patali from which the name Patliputra was derived.

The Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) will make various fee-charging leisure facilities available for free use by members of the public on August 5 (Sunday) when Sport For All Day is held as part of the department's efforts to encourage people to do regular exercise.
Booking for the facilities can be made at all Leisure Link booking counters at LCSD venues (except for self-service kiosks) from 9.30am on July 29 (Sunday) on a first-come, first-served basis. This applies to the facilities which have not been block-booked by organisations on August 5.
The leisure facilities open to free use on August 5 include:
* Indoor leisure facilities: badminton courts, tennis courts, basketball courts, netball courts, volleyball courts, squash courts, table tennis tables, American pool tables, billiard tables, carom table, sport climbing walls, bowling greens, golf facilities, fitness rooms, activity rooms and dance rooms;
* Outdoor leisure facilities (not including camping facilities, sports grounds and artificial and natural turf pitches): tennis courts, tennis practice courts, bowling greens, batting cages, rope course, sport climbing walls, archery ranges and golf facilities;
* Public swimming pools (not including Wan Chai Swimming Pool); and
* Craft at water sports centres
Each person can book only one free session for these leisure facilities irrespective of the types of facilities. No prior booking is required for free admission to the LCSD's swimming pools. Those interested only need to line up at the entrance to the pools before each session starts on August 5 for free admission on a first-come, first-served basis.
If a hirer fails to take up a booked leisure facility 10 minutes after the starting time of the booked session, the facility will be reallocated to walk-in participants on a first-come, first-served basis. A walk-in participant allocated a facility in this way does not need to surrender the facility even when the original hirer subsequently turns up.
The LCSD appeals to hirers to make the best use of the booked facilities and to arrive at the facilities on time. They should cancel the booked sessions as soon as possible if they foresee being unable to use the booked facilities. They can fill out a booking cancellation form or confirm cancellation in writing and send the information together with the permit to the LCSD by fax or email or in person. The booking cancellation form is available at the Leisure Link booking counters at LCSD venues and can be downloaded from the Sport For All Day dedicated webpage: www.lcsd.gov.hk/specials/sfad2012/en/index.php.
The hirer must be one of the users of the leisure facility booked. He or she should produce the valid permit, his or her identification document (i.e. identity card, passport, re-entry permit or student card bearing a photograph of the card holder) and recognised proof of qualifications (if necessary) for verification at the check-in counter before using the facilities. All users of the leisure facilities have to observe the rules and regulations laid down by the LCSD.
Swimmers should help keep swimming pools clean and hygienic. People should not use the swimming pool facilities if they do not feel well. They should put on a clean swimsuit and use the toilet if necessary and should not defecate or vomit in the pools. Before entering the pool deck areas, they should shower in the changing rooms and walk through the shower baths and footbaths.
Being held for the fourth consecutive year, Sport For All Day has "Stay Active: Exercise for Half an Hour Daily" as a slogan this year. It aims to call on people to nurture a habit of performing physical exercise for at least 30 minutes each day so as to attain a healthier and stronger physique.
Various free recreation and sports programmes will also be made available throughout the 18 districts on Sport For All Day for the public to take part in. On top of activities like parent-child sports programmes and exercise demonstrations and the provision of fitness corners across the board, the LCSD's designated sports centres in each of the 18 districts will each choose an Olympic event as a centrepiece to create an ambience themed on the London Olympic and Paralympic Games as well as to give support to Hong Kong athletes participating in the Games.
Enrolment for the August 5 free programmes can be made at the respective District Leisure Services Offices of the LCSD or the designated activity venues in the 18 districts on a first-come, first-served basis. A small portion of tickets will be reserved for walk-in participants on the event day. Details of the designated sports centres and the corresponding Olympic sports selected are available at the Sport For All Day dedicated webpage.
So far, more than 30 organisations, including District Councils, various National Sports Associations, tertiary institutions and property management companies, have responded to the LCSD's appeal for organising free activities and opening their facilities for the use of their members, teachers and students or tenants on August 5. More than 4,500 people are expected to benefit from their generosity. To encourage more people to actively participate in physical activity, some of the District Councils have even taken the step of financing community organisations to organise recreation programmes on August 5.
Sport For All Day 2012 is co-organised with the Department of Health; the Hong Kong Jockey Club Sports Medicine and Health Sciences Centre; the Postgraduate Diploma/Master of Science in Sports Medicine and Health Science Alumni Association of the Chinese University of Hong Kong; and the Physical Fitness Association of Hong Kong, China.
For details of the booking arrangements for leisure facilities and enrolment for recreation programmes, please visit the Sport for All Day dedicated homepage. Enquiries can be made on Tel: 2414 5555.

Prince's 'Welcome 2 Chicago' now up to 2 showsContinue reading.
Prince welcomes U 2 Chicago — for one show only?
Tickets go on sale this week for Prince's first concert in Chicago in eight years.
Or will it be concerts?
The announcement of the Sept. 24 concert at United Center was couched in a degree of mystery. Previously, Prince has set up lengthy residencies in major cities — 21 nights each in London (2007) and Los Angeles (earlier this year), for instance — and while only the one date has been confirmed thus far in Chicago, the video ad for the on-sale lures fans by promising "a different experience every night," while the press release from promoter Live Nation is conspicuously plural in mentioning "upcoming Chicago dates."
A Live Nation spokesperson Tuesday said he had no information about additional concerts.
Prince's schedule is wide open. The United Center, however, is fairly densely booked the rest of September and October.
Tickets for the single "Welcome 2 Chicago" show are available in a couple of pre-sales this week before being open to the general public at 10 a.m. Thursday via LiveNation.com.
Prince's performance is in conjunction with an organization called Rebuild the Dream, co-founded by civil rights and environmental activist Van Jones. Rebuild the Dream is "a mobilization of hundreds of thousands of everyday people–from seniors to students, moms, dads, brothers and sisters–who come together to build strong vibrant communities and to fix our economy from the ground up."

UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI FILES CHARGES AGAINST SEIU AS JANITORS STRIKE CONTINUES-Andrew Stelzer
Janitors at the University of Miami are now in the 7th week of their strike. Despite getting a 25 percent pay raise last month, the janitors still want to use a card check election to vote on becoming unionized, but UNICCO, the Boston based contractor which employs them, will only honor a secret ballot election, a method which has been found to be more subject to anti-union harassment and threats to employees. In the past week, more than a dozen janitors and their studentsââ¬â¢ supporters have gone on hunger strike, and now the University announced it will be filing unfair labor practice charges with the National Labor Relations Board. Meanwhile, janitors at nearby NOVA southeastern University have began a work slow down of their own. WMNFs Andrew Stelzer has the story.
2 meetings in 5 days proved unsuccessful in resolving differences between the janitors and UNICCO, and last week, 10 janitors, including Clara Vargas, who has cleaned a dorm for the past 4 and a half years for 7 dollars an hour, went on hunger strike.
ACT-Clara Vargas ââ¬ÅUNICCO was never open about the Union. They always spoke badly about the union to the workers. They said to some workers, if you want to get in the union I will lay you off. But this time the workers are saying our signature itââ¬â¢s our vote.ââ¬? END ACT
3 of the 10 janitors have had to be hospitalized with high blood pressure that put them at risk for a stroke, The remaining 7 are in their 9th day, and theyââ¬â¢ve been joined by 7 students in solidarity. Jacob-Coker Dukowitz, with Students towards a new Democracy, a group supporting the janitors, says that while no one has been arrested, the University has taken a more aggressive stance.
ACT-Jacob ââ¬ÅThere was forceful removal of workers from classroom..workers came on with a wheelchair, signs saying I lost 18 pounds..they were forcefully removed..ââ¬?
But perhaps the most aggressive move of all is the filing of unfair labor practice charges with the National Labor Relations Board by the University. Jerry Lewis is the vice President of Communications for the University of Miami.
ACT-Lewis ââ¬ÅWere saying the SEIU is in violation of the national labor relations act, picketing, confrontational handbilling..Coming on private property..ââ¬?
Lewis says the charges go back 7 weeks, and have 10 or 11 points in them. A press statement issue by U of M said that charges will be filed against SEIU organizers and their supporters. Lewis says he doesnââ¬â¢t know who those supporters would be. Dukowitz from STAND says that grouping students, clergy and other non-profit groups in the complaint is unfair and inaccurate.
ACT-Jacob ââ¬Åthere were charges filed that said SEIU that said anyone who came on campus are agents of the unionââ¬Â¦, but people from ACORN, STAND have sided with workers, not SEIU, and so this is to avoid bad press ..ââ¬â¢
The Workers have filed several complaints of their own with the NLRB, claiming they had been harassed and threatened not to join the union, and one worker was fired for organizing the janitors. Meanwhile, 45 miles away at NOVA southeastern University, janitors at that school who are also employed By UNICCO, staged a staggered work stoppage over the first 3 days of this week, calling for higher wages, medical benefits and the right to organize a union. Dave Dawson, spokesman for Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, says the walkout ended Wednesday, and that it was organized by the SEIU as well.
ACT-Dawson ââ¬ÅThere was an out of town union that came to our campus that organized and tried to solicit people for a strike, for a time we had some absenteeism, as of today everyone is back, no pickets, no union demonstrators, and the ones we saw were from other locations..ââ¬?
The average pay for custodial staff at Nova is $7.25 an hour, while Broward County's living-wage is $11.48 an hour. Despite this discrepancy, and the janitorsââ¬â¢ call for higher wages, NOVA spokesman Dawson says he believes the schools janitorial and groundskeepers are being fairly compensated.
ACT-Dawson ââ¬ÅThe marketplace determines, and that would be a fair wage for certain jobs. Wed all like people to pay 12 dollars an hour, but when you snuck out of the newsroom, its would be 7 bucks. Something has to give, weââ¬â¢ve been told by UNICCO that this is a fair market wage, and comparable to other universities, thatââ¬â¢s what weââ¬â¢ve been told.ââ¬?
Dawson says how and contract employees choose to form a union is their decision and the university wont interfere. He also takes a similar line to the one the University of Miami has stuck to in public statements, claiming that since the janitors are employed by UNICCO the pay raise is in their hands. Although the janitors point to the pay raise granted by the University of Miami as proof that they can intervene, spokesman Jerry Lewis holds to the so-called ââ¬Åneutral stance.ââ¬?
ACT-Lewis ââ¬ÅDetermining wages and healthcare is something we could do, and thatââ¬â¢s something we did. In terms of a union contract and how they would vote, we cant get involved in that, we can be union busted.ââ¬?
Dukowitz says that the charges filed by the University of Miami are another example of their taking a side in the issue.
ACT-Jacob ââ¬ÅOriginally the university said we have nothing to do with this, then said neutral, now playing an active role in an attempt to silence worker efforts..So youââ¬â¢ve seen a turn around in trying to silence freedom of speech.ââ¬?
University of Miami Spokesman Jerry Lewis denies the charges of censorship.
ACT-Lewis ââ¬ÅWe arenââ¬â¢t squelching free speech, weââ¬â¢ve had demonstrations, it would be unfair to say that..people have trespassed, weââ¬â¢ve allowed itââ¬?

A new Subway outlet is to create eight jobs in west Cumbria
Last updated at 11:50, Saturday, 20 October 2012
Eight jobs will be created when a new restaurant opens at Dunmail Park in Workington next month.
The American sandwich franchise Subway will open a 64-seater restaurant opposite the Topshop store.
Work began on the restaurant on Monday and the area has been split into two enclosed units. Dunmail Park hopes to fill the other unit with another retailer.
Gordon Osbaldestin, centre surveyor, said: "We hope Subway will push up numbers and get people to stay here longer.
"Years ago people went on coach trips to Dunmail Park and spent the day here and that is what we want to see again."
He said it would be one of the larger Subway branches, selling sandwiches and salads, drinks and pastries.
Mr Osbaldestin said that since Asda opened in the retail park in 2010 footfall had quadrupled with between 40,000 and 45,000 people a week going through the doors.
The Subway restaurant will be owned by Maiquez Ltd, which has a number of Subway franchises in the North West, including Workington town centre.
It will replace the Wimpy and Deli France restaurants which closed in May.
The new restaurant is due to open on November 15.

Hi !
Been reding through the thread "GET DAZ STUDIO 4.5! See why…".
Awsome thread, I must say, but in all honesty I don't get even a fraction of it. Mainly since I'm an "average" user who don't have a clue to what all those three-letter do-hickeys actually do and never use them. As far as I can tell…
Picture is this:
I use Studio 4.0.3 Pro. Prolly overkill for my use but - hey - it was free and there was no sign attached saying "Do not use if you don't know what all those three-letter do hickeys actually do!", allright ?
So - I'm using DS for posing, lighting, rendering and in certain cases, exporting figures out as OBJ's. That's it.
The concerns I have about DS 4.5 can most probably be answered with simple Yes or No's. That's really all I need and complex, techie answers won't serve any purpose. I don't know what the fregg you'r talking about anyways ...
I'm just using DS and it is supposed to be user friendly, no ?
K' - here goes:
*DS 4.5 will overwrite the previous 4.0.3 and make it and plugins like Reality 2.2 dissapear ?
*If not, do I have to delete the 4.0.3 in it's entirety, install the 4,5 and start all over again with installing back all the content I now have installed ?
*Will all the previously released morph packs - like Muscle Morphs, Characters, V5, M5 and so forth - for Genesis work with the new Genesis Starter Essentials 1.3 ?
*Will V4 and M4 still be valid for use in DS 4.5 ?
Thanks !

Editor's Note: We are pleased to offer two "President's Message" articles this month. Beth Lavoie has been home with her new future-engineer, Molly, but found the time to send an article for the May newsletter. Ebony Joseph has very capably stepped into Beth's shoes as acting President, and is running unopposed to become President in FY13. So I have decided to include both messages this month. Aren't we lucky? Peg
Conversation Starters
Beth Lavoie – NESS President
As I have done in the past, I searched online for some inspiration to kick-start this May's President's Message. This month as I was looking over 'Month of May' quotes, I stumbled onto this:
"Don't knock the weather: nine-tenths of the people couldn't start a conversation if it didn't change once in a while." – Kin Hubbard
While it doesn't directly apply to May, the quote made me smile! It is so true – my fallback discussion with someone new is usually the weather. Actually, I know people that regularly have full conversations solely about the weather. My good friend's grandmother, Kay, (the sweetest woman), actually dedicated an entire paragraph of a thank you note to the weather going on outside her window in Illinois. Why I needed to know about last week's midwest weather when I was living in Rhode Island… I am unsure, but I had the information.
Now you may be asking yourself why I'm babbling about weather-conversation starters. What does this have to do with SWE and SWE-NESS in the month of May? Well, for SWE-NESS, May means Membership Month! We typically host a meeting to focus on our membership and recap all the events we have enjoyed over the past year. May is the month that NESS makes an extra effort to encourage NESS members and friends to meet each other. While NESS members and friends still have the safety net of talking about the weather when meeting new people, NESS activities offer a unique opportunity – another default conversation starter: sharing what being a woman engineer means to you!
I encourage all our members and friends to attend our May 17th Membership Meeting and start a conversation with a new person. We'll have the All Saints Academy Robotics Team to talk about, so we won't have time to worry about the weather!
Until we talk again… enjoy life!
Ebony Joseph – NESS Vice President
April Showers bring May Flowers…
Although I do not have a green thumb I have been mentally preparing to begin my new garden adventure for almost a year. Yes, this project did require a lot of thought. If it weren't for my son asking to plant vegetables, the garden would still be just a dream. In April, I planted seeds so that I can have a beautiful vegetable and flower garden. I am looking forward to seeing my first buds.
Preparation…let's talk about that. SWE is always looking to add to the pipeline of SWE Future Leaders (SWEFL). The SWEFL program seeks SWE members who have no less than two years left in a degree program with a minimum GPA of 3.0. Additionally, candidates must have attended a SWE Collegiate Leadership Forum. I hope each of you will start thinking of potential SWEFL candidates. The application deadline is about 12 months away, so there is plenty of time to consider nominating a collegiate member.
Also in the spirit of preparation, please send us your suggestions for facility tours, Professional Development, Collegiate/Professional joint activities and Outreach event ideas for FY13. The EC will soon be drafting the calendar for FY13 and we want to make sure we get as many ideas from our members as possible. Feel free to send any of the officers or committee chairs your ideas. If possible, also send contact information for the activity you recommend.
I cannot forget to mention one very exciting event taking place this month. Our annual Membership Meeting will be held on May 17 in Middletown, RI. The FIRST LEGO League RI State Champion Robotics team from All Saints Academy will be there. The team is currently preparing for the National Robotics competition in Florida, and is planning on discussing and demonstrating what their Robot can do during this meeting. Attending this event is a great way show support for our young engineers-in-training. It is also the perfect opportunity to learn what SWE-NESS has accomplished this year.
Stay up to date on other SWE-NESS events by viewing our Calendar. I hope you can attend one of our exciting events.
Stay Motivated. Stay Encouraged. Stay Productive. Stay Safe.
Ebony Joseph

Support the PRIDE Fighters!
Not exactly sure what you mean? only former Pride members on the show? I think that would be pretty cool.. Give unfamiliar fans a chance to get to know them.Originally Posted by Rob34207
"Face to face - you settle it that way. You don't sucker-punch, ever, from behind. Do it face to face."- Grapes
That would be great to see some of the long forgotten fighter of Pride on american T.V. . Since for some reason most people get 90 percent of thier knowledge from that show. Hell people in this country probaly think Bisbing is better the Dan Henderson because of that show.
Yeah, sounds like a good idea to me...
Everyone should be signing this
good idea but would never work. Correct me if im wrong but Im pretty sure they dont get paid for the TUF fights, maybe they changed it but I know they didnt originally. You could do it with alot of lower level PRIDE guys but the midlevel and top tier guys arent going to be fighting three times for free.
Avy and Sig Bet record 17-9-1
It could work but it would have to be the biggest prize yet. Not only would it have to be a title shot but enough money for it to be worth the risk. The biggest flaw I see in this idea is whoever they put in the house would have to speak english so theyre would be alot less talent to choose from.Originally Posted by TheBonger
good point...i usually like to be able to understand what people are saying.Originally Posted by kalebarker
i thought it was funny that bisping and ross were always subtitled even though they weren't difficult to understand, so i guess they could just subtitle everyone.
Wise country.Originally Posted by bkiser81
Great idea. Its funny how some of the best fighters in the world have come over form pride. While some have been hyped very well and have been highly anticipated others have had no following just because of no familiarity. Guys like Ed Herman are better known than Werdum or Nakamura. Im not saying these guys are amazing but not many UFC fans understand that they are better than your normal middle of the division vets. This show would get them a following equal to their talents and accomplishments

We are blessed with a fantastic group of men and women on our staff team who love Jesus, His Church, and His people! We encourage you to get to know them, pray for them, and encourage them as together we follow God's Spirit in this church family.
Mike Penninga is first and foremost a son of God, a husband to Michelle, a father of 3, and a Kelowna boy through-and-through! A grad of Trinity Western University and ACTS seminary with a background in broadcast journalism, Mike has a passion for sharing the life changing news of Jesus Christ in understandable and captivating ways. He has spoken to thousands of students and young adults over the past 15 years, challenging them to invest their lives in that which is eternal. He has been the Senior Pastor at Kelowna Gospel Fellowship since March 2009. Discover more about Mike's heart in this article.
I am a father to three wonderful girls and husband to the love of my life, Shelley. While a good chunk of my life has been spent on the prairies, BC is my home and I love our city of Kelowna! I graduated from Regent College in Vancouver in 2009 and spent 3 years teaching and serving as Academic Dean at Eston College, Saskatchewan before returning home, where I began working here as Associate Pastor in April of 2014.
I have long been seized by God's grace and the call to serve His church, something that both excites and humbles me at the same time. My passion is to educate the imagination of the Church with respect to who God is, how we experience him, and to understand what good works he has created us and equipped us to do in Christ Jesus by the Holy Spirit (Eph 2.4-10).
Even though I had the privilege of being raised by a Godly mother, it wasn't until the age of twenty-three that I had a dramatic, transforming encounter with the living Christ. My passion since that day has been to point people to the Lord Jesus and share Him with anyone who is willing to hear of His love, forgiveness and redemption.
Throughout my life, the greatest gifts I have received from the hand of our Father has been the tender love of my beautiful wife Benita, the joy, fun and friendship that radiates from our amazing son Evan, the blessing of being called by God to serve His people in vocational ministry and the ongoing thankfulness of enjoying and expressing various musical forms and expressions in diverse settings.
To honor Jesus, encourage and bless His people at KGF and build a team of musicians and technicians that love God and other's passionately is the greatest desire of my heart. May the Lord grant grace and strength to see His will and purposes accomplished through the music and technical of our fellowship.

Marcus is a follower of Jesus Christ. One sunny day he fell in love with Bethany when she threw a rock near a Blue Heron (that's the girl for me!). Out of their love and marriage bloomed two boys, Elijah Christopher and Rafael Lorne. Marcus loves being a father, wrestling with his boys, and teaching them about this beautiful world God has made and is restoring! He loves playing basketball, tennis, journaling at a good café, and cruising Bernard in his minivan, windows down, tunes pumping.
Marcus was first called to pastoral ministry during his Bachelors of Ministry at Prairie Bible College (1998-2002). This was only deepened during his three years of youth ministry in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and another four years of Bible training at Regent College in Vancouver, BC (MDiv, 2009). After 5 years of carpentry Jesus called him to pastor the next generation at KGF. He can't contain his excitement and looks forward to seeing young people set on fire for Jesus and His Kingdom!
Sue is a daughter of the King, loves her wonderful husband Henry and their beautiful family, which includes a daughter, daughter-in-law, seven sons, and a beautiful new granddaughter. Sue and Henry are members of KGF and have truly found a place of belonging. Sue brings over 25 years of experience in Sunday School, serving and leading in all areas of children's and youth ministries, and a joy and love for seeing families supported and mentored through the caring of the children. Sue has a passion for sharing the love of Jesus with children and seeing the that knowing and hearing about Him makes in their lives and the lives of their families. Sue has enjoyed being busy and creative in the home an community through her quilting design company and is very thankful to be bringing that energy and creativity to the children's team.
Galen is excited to support the KGF Church Family as Technical Director. He and his wonderful wife Amy have been married for 8 years and together they have a beautiful daughter Mylah, 4, and a daschund George! While his main day job is a Fire Sprinkler Pipe Fitter, he also works in live theater production, having over 20 years experience both professionally and as a community volunteer. He is passionate about sharing his experience as a technician, seeing his team grow and supporting the worship and leadership teams at KGF.
My family and I have been attending KGF since February 2011 and have come to love this church family and consider it home. I am married to my best friend, Nolan, and we have two amazing daughters, Cassidy and Elyse. I enjoy time with my family, long walks, hiking, canoeing, camping, reading, baking, cross-country skiing, getting together with friends, wandering through antiques stores, and sipping tea. I am really looking forward to working with this amazing team that God has brought together to bring the gospel of Jesus to this amazing city we are privileged to live in.
Bethany felt called to ministry from an early age. During high school she worked as a Cabin Leader at Summer Bible Camp and as a Sunday School teacher during the rest of the year. In 2006, a year after her high school graduation, she left her home province of British Columbia behind and flew to the small town of Homer, Alaska, where she completed a Discipleship Training School with Youth With A Mission (YWAM). The school was a turning point in Bethany's life and she remained in Alaska for two more years, serving as a missionary staff member on the YWAM base. In 2011, Bethany felt called to study at Bible College. She graduated from Columbia Bible College in April 2014 with a Diploma in Biblical Studies. KGF was instrumental in this achievement, as the congregation supported her through love, encouragement, and bursaries. Bethany joined the KGF staff in July 2014. When not in the Front Office, she enjoys cooking, running, and studying for her Master's Degree.
I am passionate about my God, my family, music and numbers! I was born and raised in Kelowna and have 3 amazing children. Skiing, camping and road trips are among the many things we enjoy to do together.
I have been involved in serving the local church, particularly in the area of worship and more recently in the way of bookkeeping. I have numerous businesses that I provide bookkeeping services for and I am honored to come alongside the team at KGF in the capacity of bookkeeper. I have a heart to see the local church thrive, see families build close knit community and in turn be empowered and inspired to reach our city with the love of Christ.
